The Children's Home Society of Florida - which has spent 91 years looking for homes for troubled youths - has moved closer to opening a home of its own in Fort Lauderdale.
Now it needs enough money to run it.
After 4 1/2 years of trying, the Broward division of the Children's Home Society has raised the $2.4 million needed to build an emergency shelter for 28 abused and neglected children. Ground was broken on Monday for the Lorraine Thomas Children's Emergency Home and Family Support Center, scheduled to open in the fall of 1994.
The Children's Home Society is a private, nonprofit organization that arranges adoptions and helps place children in foster homes in coordination with the state Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services. Children waiting to be placed with foster parents, adoptive parents or their own parents - after they have undergone counseling and therapy - will stay for no more than a month at the shelter at 401 NE Fourth St.
Now, without a shelter, the society gets calls from mothers in counseling who say they are on the verge of abusing their child and need a break, executive director Jay Rader said. But the agency doesn't have a way of getting a child away and letting problems cool down for a few days, he said.
The new shelter will give families the opportunity, which might help them stay together, Rader said. Without it, the child might get beaten and then need a foster home, he said.
Our goal "is to get into the home and keep the family together if possible," board chairman Adele Stone said.
The second floor of the new building will house the agency's offices and its nine other programs.
Before the shelter opens, the society wants to have enough cash on hand to run the shelter for a year. That's money for staff, electricity, food, blankets and other materials totaling about $800,000 a year, officials said.
That's a lesson from another Broward children's charity, Kids In Distress, said Janice Lahaye, co-chairwoman of the society's fund-raising campaign.
Kids In Distress built its new treatment center for troubled children in 1992, but it is unable to open two of its four cottages because it lacks government money - $400,000 - for day-to-day operations.
Children's Home Society officials say they have commitments and fund-raisers that should raise $500,000 of the needed $800,000 by May. They will have another fund-raiser in December.
"It's not going to be easy, we'll struggle," Rader said. "But all things we've accomplished, we've had to struggle for.'

The Parks Mall at Arlington is a shopping mall that opened in 1988 at 3811 South Cooper Street (FM 157) and Interstate 20 in South Arlington, Texas between Fort Worth and Dallas. It went through a renovation in 1996.  It is one of the leading shopping destinations in the Metroplex. The Dallas Morning News calls it "An overcrowded entertainment destination". It is the third-largest mall in Tarrant County behind its competitor, North East Mall. Major anchor stores include Dick's Sporting Goods, Dillard's, J. C. Penney, Macy's, and Nordstrom Rack.

History
The Parks at Arlington was built in 1987 and had a grand opening in 1988, the mall was developed by Homart Development Company and Herring Marathon. The original anchor stores were Dillard's, Mervyns, and Sears.

In 1989, Dillard's vertically expanded its store by adding another floor to make a total of three floors.

In 1990, The Parks was expanded and Foley's (now Macy's) was added as the fourth anchor store. Five years later, JCPenney was added as the fifth anchor store.

It expanded again in 2002 with a new wing featuring Galyan's (now Dick's Sporting Goods) and The Great Indoors. The Great Indoors closed in 2003 and the space was taken over by Steve & Barry's in the mid-2000s.

When Mervyns closed in 2006, it was replaced with several new tenants, including Barnes & Noble, The Cheesecake Factory, and Forever 21.

In 2016, the former Steve and Barry's got taken over by Round1 Amusement.

On July 11, 2020, it was announced that Sears would be closing as part of a plan to close 28 stores nationwide. Since then, it has reopened in August 2021 as Sears Hometown Inc.

An immature Yellow-Headed Blackbird was found at Howard Marsh, meaning that even though this bird is rare in Ohio, this one was from a successful nest at Howard Marsh.
Outdoors: Howard Marsh a notable nesting ground
By DAN COOLEY @crescentsports cnsports@crescent-news.com
Dan Cooley
CURTICE — Howard Marsh Metropark, the newest of the Toledo Metroparks, is becoming a nesting ground for some rare birds, as well as some rare finds. Some people visit it several times per week, because they never know what may turn up.
The park officially opened April 28, 2018. Howard Marsh's official address is 611 South Howard Road, Curtice, Ohio. It is located just off State Route 2, right next to Metzger Marsh. The park is open to the public daily, from 7 a.m. to dusk.
Soon after Howard Marsh opened, the osprey and black-necked stilt (mentioned in last week's outdoors story) began nesting there. The osprey, while quite common in the southern coastal states, is very uncommon in Ohio.
"A nesting platform was put up in hopes to attract the osprey and almost immediately a pair began nesting there," said Scott Carpenter, director of public relations for the Metroparks. "The osprey nesting is not a big deal in Florida, but it certainly is a big deal in Ohio. I've also been told that authorities expect the Sandhill Crane will be nesting at Howard Marsh in the next few years. The crane was a very rare nester in Ohio just a few years ago and it is now nesting at (nearby) Ottawa Wildlife Refuge."
Mark Shieldcastle, research director for the Black Swamp Bird Observatory, and several volunteers have been checking out nesting birds at Howard Marsh. According to Shieldcastle, among those nesting at Howard are the pied-billed grebe, American coot, blue-winged teal, mallard duck, ruddy duck and king rail. Also, the black-necked stilt has two pairs nesting, one of which has successfully had four chicks hatch.
"If you go to Howard Marsh right now, you can view chicks of the American coot and pied-billed grebe," Shieldcastle said. "We have also had the king rail, an endangered species in Ohio, successfully hatch and some king rail chicks have been seen."
Long on the wish list for a metropark site, Howard Marsh was purchased from Howard Farms in 2008. Howard Marsh now contains 1,000 acres and consists of five miles of hiking trails.
And Lake Erie lies just to the north of Howard Marsh. According to metroparkstoledo.com, Howard Marsh is now a very significant piece of land along the Lake Erie shoreline, both for birds and fish: "Howard Marsh is the last remaining large tract of land in the western Lake Erie Marsh region. (In addition), marshes are an important breeding ground for fish. (In particular), Walleye fishing along Lake Erie is a $600 million a year industry."
With Howard Marsh located next to Metzger Marsh and just 6.7 miles from Ottawa Wildlife Refuge, which is adjacent to Magee Marsh, Howard Marsh has quickly become a popular spot for birders. That was especially true during 'The Biggest Week in American Birding."
"During The Biggest Week, Howard Marsh became the go to spot for finding shorebirds, most of which were not seen at Magee," Carpenter said.
Twenty different shorebirds have been seen at Howard. That includes the American avocet and the Wilson's phalarope. Both were seen at least once, within the past month. Also, the American white pelican has stopped over a few times. This bird's closest nesting site to Ohio is in North Dakota.
In addition, the horned lark is a year-round resident at Howard and is seldom seen at either Magee or Ottawa.
There have also been 10 different duck species that have become summer residents at Howard Marsh. Among those rarely found in summer in Ohio are the redhead, ruddy duck, lesser scaup and green-winged teal.
According to Carpenter, here are some quick impressive numbers to throw at you.
"Howard Marsh is really an amazing conservation story," Carpenter said. "Already, over 250 species of birds have been seen at Howard. When you consider that a total of about 400 different species have been seen in Ohio, for the short time that Howard has been in existence, 250 is a pretty significant number. And the number of Red-Winged Blackbirds at Howard have more than doubled over last year, from 1,327 last year, to 4,579 this year. There have also been some sightings of yellow-headed blackbirds all summer long and they are rare in Ohio."
According to Shieldcastle, four or five pairs of yellow-headed blackbirds have nested at Howard and nearby Metzger Marsh this summer. Some of the yellow-headed young have recently been seen.
"Yellow-headed blackbirds are cattail dwellers and this is the perfect year for them here," Shieldcastle said. "In regards to all the unusual birds nesting here, some of it is because there are a lot of people who come to Howard, so the birds are rather easily seen, as opposed to places that are more secluded and are not seen, (so you don't know the nests are there). Plus, the condition of the marsh this year is really good for these birds. It's a great time to get out here and check out Howard Marsh."
Trap Shoot In Antwerp: There will be a trap shoot at the Antwerp Conservation club on Saturday, July 27. The Community Memorial Hospital Foundation is hosting the event. The trap shoot is open to ages 10 and up.
Registration and a safety course will begin at 9 a.m. Food and drinks will be provided to those who pre-register. Cost for registration received by July 19 is $35. The cost after July 19 is $40.

More damage is caused by the lack of a chimney cap than from any other source.
Rain causes premature deterioration to the chimney interior and can rust metal fireboxes and dampers. It can erode flue tiles and mortar joints, causing them to crumble and leave dangerous cracks and blockages. Chimney caps protect your chimney from the elements. They also protect from birds and animals and the variety of diseases-such as rabies and histoplasmosis- they bring with them. Nests can cause dangerous flue blockages. Chimney caps also reduce the danger of roof fires caused by flying embers.


According to the findings of a recent report by Transparency Market Research (TMR), the molded plastics market in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is highly fragmented, with ten leading companies accounting for merely 40% shares of the global pie in 2014. On the other hand, on the basis of geographical distribution, the GCC molded plastics market is consolidated, with Saudi Arabia accounting for 60% of the plastic converters while 15% belonged to the UAE. As for the new entrants, the report detects that since most of the prominent vendors have relatively smaller production capacity ranging from 10 to 50 kilo tons, higher production capability aimed at specific regional pockets will pave the way.
As per the projections of the TMR report, the GCC molded plastics market will increment at a strong CAGR of 8.3% during the forecast period of 2015 to 2023, reaching a valuation of US$14.22 bn by the end of 2023, considerably up from its evaluated worth of US$7.19 bn in 2014. Though there are a vast number of suppliers of molded plastics in GCC, there also are plenty of untapped growth opportunities, and expansion strategies as well as improved product portfolio will help the companies to strengthen their stronghold over the competition.
Based on application, the GCC molded plastics has been segmented into building and construction, automotive and transportation, packaging, consumable and electronics, and others such as furniture and toys. Among these, the packaging industry accounted for the maximum demand at 52% in 2014, and is expected to remain most profitable, reaching a share of 56% of the overall demand by the end of 2023. The prosperity of the packaging industry in Gulf Cooperation Council is a reflection of consistently improving trade activities and the growth of the industrial as well as consumer goods sectors.
The products packaged with molded plastics undergo several development phases in order to comply with regulatory guidelines and the requirement of the end users. Enhanced performance against wear and tear, increased shelf life of food products, improved durability are some of the requirements that plastics need to meet for packaging applications. The population of this region has escalated quickly in the past decade, which has helped in creating manifold growth opportunities for molded plastic packaging market.
The building and construction is flourishing in GCC as well, wherein molded plastic are used to manufacture rain water & sewage pipes, electrical conduits, windows & doors, gas distributions pipes, plumbing, tanks, flooring tiles & rolls, and others. The medical and automotive are also expected to maintain significant demand rolling-in in the GCC molded plastic market.
Country-wise, the report studies the potential of molded plastic market in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman, and picks out Saudi Arabia as most profitable country, while the UAE and Kuwait are rated to expand the demand for molded plastic moderately during the forecast period, primarily gaining traction from the construction industry.
Rapid growth of the packaging industry in the Middle East and the prosperity of the construction industry are two prominent drivers of the GCC molded plastics market, which on the other hand, is facing challenge from the unpredictable demand patterns of economic and political stability. Improved product portfolio to cater to diverse sectors and research and development are two key strategies adopted by the leading vendors to gain ground over their competitors. The popularity of lightweight materials and growing application in the medical industry is expected open new avenues for the GCC molded plastic market.

5-minute warm-up that makes an immediate impact on strength & mobility.
Important accessory work for any athlete to develop the glutes & hamstrings.
This is an intense program to build explosive strength along with stability & balance.
In a few minutes a day, rehab your back, knees and hips by developing stability of your glutes and core.
Includes 50 page training guide and double-sided exercise chart to guide you through the programs.
Includes over 50 training videos on the Activation, Strength & Plyometric programs plus rehab for low back, hip and knee pain.
The patent pending Hip HALO is all you need to complete all included exercise programs for activating and strengthening the muscles of the hip and core.
The Hip HALO padding is easily cleaned and contours to the leg for comfortable movement & durable enough for years of daily use.
All designed to be done in minutes and to get results fast.
The CS Hip & Core is designed to attack these 6 problems.
This is an especially dangerous position for the knee, commonly recognized as the knee caving inwards. Knee valgus appears to be an issue with the knee joint, but it's actually caused by impairments of the hip. Dynamic valgus results in many types of knee pain, meniscus tears, and increases the risk of ACL tears.
The quads (the muscles on the front of the leg) often dominate over the that's hamstrings and glutes. A weak posterior chain is a common issue in those experiencing back and knee pain, and also key performance impairment for their role in generating explosive movements.
The largest and strongest of the glute muscles produce hip extension. It's important for running, jumping, and makes an important statement for your physique! If you can't create the necessary power from your hips, the body does its best to find it elsewhere, which are often compensations of the low back.
A strong core is needed to stabilize the spine for big lifts. But the core is also made of deeper movers and stabilizers that control the smaller movements of the spine. Weakness in these smaller stabilizers is a common cause of muscle spasm and pain in the low back.
Changing direction quickly and safely requires a different level of core strength and stability than just bracing your abs hard. It requires strength and coordination to fire a lot of muscles simultaneously.

Art Works versus Works of Art
Art Work versus Work of Art
I have an unhealthy addiction to house make-overs on TV - perhaps the state of our own house explains this! I think it's also slightly masochistic - I wait for the assemblage of an 'Art Work' from scraps of coloured fabric or splashes of paint to complete the furnishing of a room. I then shout angrily at the television or at any unfortunate person who happens to be in the room. I have recently encountered this dreadful phrase in serious contexts, especially on line. I am, however, pleased that Sue Perkins (despite her programme being titled 'The Art on Your Wall', does refer frequently to 'art works ' when describing the soulless patterns and facile images around which the programme revolves.
The difference between the two phrases and their meanings seems crystal clear to me. An 'Art Work' is a furnishing picture, chosen to complement the furnishings and colour schemes of a room which has had its elements assembled for decorative effect. It does not belong in a room where the overall design has evolved to incorporate cherished belongings. An Art Work can also be an idea (concept) shown in a visual way but with no evidence of skill, technique or ability on the part of the artist and not so much as a passing nod to aesthetics. It has to have the addition of a verbal explanation to inform the viewer of the concept concept. It is usually assembles from non-durable materials making it an impossible long term investmen - a perfect example of the Emperor's New Clothes syndrome!
Fortunately I don't possess an Art Work to illustrate what I'm trying to say, but please take some time to examine this work of art by Frank Wasley, feel his involvement in all aspects of the storm he depicts, explore its composition, tonal qualities, surface texture, any feelings it evokes, and, love it or loathe it, ask yourself if it really matters where it is hung. Looking at a work of art for its inherent qualities is what I believe to be important.
See if you agree with my comments on the two terms and look at my section on Conceptual Art if you're interested in my arguments.. I believe the distiction between terms discussed above is similar to the distinction between 'ornaments' and 'objects d'art'.
A 'Work of Art' , however, is just that: in the case of a picture it has been painted (or drawn, etched, collaged etc.) with skill, talent and emotional involvement and strives to satisfy the drive to create. It is something to be valued and appreciated for its own intrinsic worth, regardless of where it is hung. It should communicate directly with the viewer on a variety of levels. It should be bought because it evokes an emotional response in the buyer, not to complete the furnishing of a room. A colourful and attractive Art Work will do that very cheaply and very well - if you are happy with a superficial effect.

Prominent Afro-Colombian human rights defender murdered
#Alerta 7 líderes asesinados/as en 2017:

Afro-Colombian human rights defender Emilsen Manyoma, 32, and her partner Joe Javier Rodallega were murdered in January. Their bodies were found on 18th January in Buenaventura. Manyoma had been a prominent leader in the Bajo Calima region since 2005. She was an active member of the network CONPAZ and a harsh critic of right-wing paramilitary groups and international mining and agribusiness interests that caused displacement of local populations. As a member of the Truth Commission in charge of revealing the truth about the conflict between the Colombian government and the FARC guerrillas, Manyoma played a key role in documenting attacks on human rights defenders in the region.
On 23rd January, President Juan Manuel Santos signed Decree 092 to curb direct state contracting with not-for-profit organisations, which he views as a major source of corruption. President Santos stated that many foundations and NGOs are "a favourite tool of the corrupt to skim off the state." According to reports by the domestic transparency office, contracts with nonprofits amount to at least 1.2 billion pesos a year. The report states that such contracts are growing in popularity because contracting with not-for-profit organisations allows government agencies to skip public bidding processes. Under the new decree, this form of contracting - which is allowed by article 355 of the Constitution - will remain in place but will be subjected to restrictions.
As the decree was issued, the Colombian Confederation of NGOs (CCONG) released a statement expressing their concern about the government's stigmatisation of civil society organisations. The umbrella organisation stated that:
"in the current situation of the country it is inconvenient for the national government to imply to public opinion that corruption occurs within non-profit entities, while ignoring the responsibility of public institutions and other sectors of society regarding lack of transparency in the management of public resources."
CCONG also pointed out that the political and civil rights of civil society entities are being systematically violated, their role as a social and political actor weakened, and their sustainability over time jeopardised.

On 12th January, two newspaper reporters narrowly escaped a murder attempt in the northeastern city of Cúcuta. Cristian Herrera, a crime reporter for the daily Q'Hubo, received a tip-off from one of his sources that a murder had just taken place in a dangerous part of town, a gathering place for criminal gangs, smugglers and drug traffickers. Herrera, who has been under state protection since October 2014 after receiving several death threats and warnings to stop covering crime, set off along with the two bodyguards assigned to him by the National Protection Unit (UNP) and one of his colleagues, Andrés González, in a UNP pickup truck. As they arrived at the scene, they were surrounded by gunmen on motorcycles who insulted the reporters, tried to forcibly open the vehicle doors and finally opened fire. The reporters and his bodyguards fled at high speed and nobody was injured.
Emmanuel Colombié, head of Reporters Without Borders (RSF)'s Latin America bureau, said:
"We condemn what was both an act of extreme cowardliness and a grave violation of the freedom to report the news.[...] This murder attempt against a working journalist guarded by the National Protection Unit is indicative of the ineffectiveness of the protective mechanisms in place in a country that is still badly affected by the violence of criminal groups, a country where investigative reporting continues to be very dangerous."
In September, due to the actions of a powerful soft drinks company, the state censored a public health campaign which had sought to spread a public health message. Due to a complaint about a misleading ad by one of the most powerful Colombian soft drinks companies, the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce (SIC) shut down a public health campaign ran by a consumers advocacy NGO. The campaign's objective was to warn the public about the health hazards and costs to the public health system caused by the consumption of sugary drinks.
Educar Consumidores (Educate Consumers), a civil society organisation that conducts research and advocacy on consumers' issues that affect human health and the environment, had developed a national public health campaign including workshops and forums to inform the population about the risks and consequences of consuming sugary drinks. A social media and stream media campaign was also designed for the same purpose, but the organisation was forced to remove it from the air and compelled to send the authorities any information related to sugary drinks prior to publication, so the agency could grant or deny authorisation for publication, both in traditional and social media. The SIC resolution was issued on 7th September and is still in force because no decision has been made regarding appeals.

Why Bourdain Won't Be Invited to Tea
On May 21, Anthony Bourdain appeared on Anderson Cooper's 360° and described Tea Partiers as "very angry white people" who are as "dumb as a sack full of hammers." In case you missed it, here's video.
The TP contingent struck back all over the Internet with trademark maturity and restraint. Many disparage Tony's level of education without knowing what it is. They also dismiss that he's been to roughly 100 countries and has friends in myriad cultures on every continent, so he probably recognizes stupidity when he sees it.
A few of the names they've called him are "uneducated dolt" and "f**king druged [sic] out moron."
Breitbart TV's literate readers venomously deemed Bourdain a "meron [sic]" and "an crabby white guy [sic]" and called for a No Reservations boycott.
But I have to give the prize for wit to the U.S. Constitutional Free Press, who called Tony a "gastronomical moonbat" with "rectal-cranial inversion."
I suspect they're upset partly because Bourdain prefaced his assessment by mentioning he's been reading Hellhound on His Trail: The Stalking of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the International Hunt for His Assassin by Hampton Sides.
No, Tea Partiers aren't racists. And you'll never get them to admit there's an unread copy of Sarah Palin's book, Going Rogue, propping a door open somewhere in their house.
As a counterpoint to all this bashing, Jeff the Zombie wrote an inspiring account of how he developed a true low-sodium diet for his congestive heart failure after seeing so many of the options during a 3-day No Reservations marathon.
But back to that fateful night in DC… Earlier, Bourdain and Eric Ripert made an appearance together. My Eclectic Favorites covered it with lots of photos — and even met them. Famous DC got some decent video.
Newsweek talked to Bourdain about his recent trip to Beirut. He says it has a Miami vibe.
On May 22, Bourdain and Eric Ripert did another joint appearance in Baltimore, and Baltimore Dining Examiner reported. I didn't know Ripert is a Buddhist with past anger management issues.
The Baltimore Sun described how Tony deftly got himself off the hook for dissing Baltimore in the Rust Belt episode of No Reservations.
And in case you missed it, Sandra Lee's boyfriend, Andrew Cuomo, is running for governor of New York. Can you imagine the dinner parties they'll have? Times Union inspired quite a bit of speculation.
USAToday reports that Tony wants to write for the HBO series Treme, after doing some consulting on Season 1.
Came across this 2007 article Tony wrote for Spin, "Eat to the Beat," that I don't recall ever reading before.

Dear President Obama, Now You Just Sound Silly
By Yul
Come on, Barack! Now that BP seems on the verge of plugging the damn oil leak, the buck suddenly stops with you?
Yeah, I know, it seems odd only because I "don't have all the facts." And I do believe the imminent sliming of the Gulf and East Coast states has been keeping you up nights. But where were you in that tail-wag-dog moment when BP told the EPA to go pound sand when they told BP to stop using dispersants that could prove equally or even more damaging than the oil?
Why aren't you or BP seriously considering the MANY viable alternatives to clean-up that don't involve replacing one pollutant with another? Under the circumstances, your "Thanks, but no thanks" attitude toward accepting outside help is unconscionably Bush-like.
And when are you going to comprehend that sometimes Americans NEED drama? The news media is oozing 24/7 gooey video, complete with innocent wildlife suffocating in oil. People want to see their president express some actual outrage. "Angry and frustrated" are just words without any actual emotion behind them. Sometimes I wonder if your face is full of Botox.
BP execs giving interviews don't seem to think they're operating at your behest. And once they plug the hole, nobody's stupid enough to think they won't leap to evade responsibility for clean-up by instead pouring millions of dollars into Congressional campaign coffers.
Obama, I know YOU personally can't stop the spill, and nothing you say or do really matters at this point. The time for drastic federal action and ass-kicking passed weeks ago, and now you're stuck with an environmental disaster of epic proportions. Stop talking about it and get people moving — every which way they can — to SAVE THE GULF.
On a local note, Virginia's addle-brained Republican governor, Bob McDonnell, is bummed that Obama canceled drilling off Virginia's coast. Maybe his TV is broken. Or maybe he's seen Virginia Beach recently. The water stinks and the sand is so filthy it turns your feet black, according to Karen. Maybe he thinks a disaster like Louisiana's might not make much difference.

Could the Gulf Get Any Slimier Than BP?
They were smart enough to dig the hole to the oil that's destroying the Gulf of Mexico. But when it comes to closing the hole, BP and its crooked cronies Transocean and Haliburton can only whine, "We don't know if we can. It's a WHOLE MILE under water!"
What's going on is obvious. They haven't really WANTED to seal the well because they hope to tap it again, instead of starting over somewhere else.
And now we're hearing that unexpected stuff spewed from that rig at least three times right before it exploded. Big red flags everybody ignored. Gee, when have we ever seen Corporate America oblivious to all warning signs before a disaster?
Can you say, "Every time?"
I'm sure the Gulf Coast inhabitants watching their world get slimed would concur when I say to BP and the federal government…
Enough with the useless investigations! Shut off that damn well FIRST, ask questions LATER!
Matt Lauer on the Today Show lit into BP's CEO, Tony Hayward. Hayward admitted he blew off Shell's past president, John Hofmeister, who suggested they bring in supertankers to filter the oil from the water before it hits land, like the Arabs did with a bigger spill in the Arabian Gulf.
Guess Hayward would only consider that if his oil were filling the English Channel and the Queen was miffed.
Instead, BP plans to pump a mud-like substance into the hole, and then concrete, a strategy that has a 50-50 chance of working and could make things worse.
My suggestion is to use robots (like the ones that brought up stuff up from Titanic, which is 2 miles under water) to clear away debris from the leak, then bring in the biggest, heaviest slabs of concrete man can create and just drop them on the hole. Smash that sucker flat so nothing can ever escape.
I'm guessing they haven't tried anything so straightforward and simple because it would 1) be a permanent fix, and 2) look so easy, people would be asking, "Why didn't you do that a MONTH ago?"

Did Andrew Know Fergie's His Pimp?
By Adele
After the British Royal Family kicked her to the curb, Sarah Ferguson became the quintessential stray, living by her wits and raising 2 nice daughters, by all accounts. It was extremely disheartening to see her snagged in a nasty trap set by the News of the World. Talk about biting the hand that feeds them. Hasn't Sarah supplied the tabloids with enough trash for all the best years of her life?
Granted, selling access to her ex-husband Andrew for trade deals was sleazy, but I don't believe Sarah did it without Andrew's full knowledge and consent, no matter how the palace tries to spin it.
The Royal Family is guilty of giving Sarah a taste for the jet-set lifestyle. She'd be better off today if they'd just left her among the squashed cabbage leaves of Covent Garden.
No, wait. That was Eliza Doolittle.
But nobody can say Sarah didn't get royally screwed in her divorce, with the the court "forgetting" Andrew was a prince and awarding her only $21.5K a year based on his military pay. It's to her credit she accepted that pittance without raising an unholy stink.
That's precisely why Andrew lets her sell him on the side. She doesn't guarantee her customers results, just access. Andrew's under no obligation, doesn't get a cut of the take, and keeps his skirts clean.
The only problem now is that Mumsy knows, and she HATES stuff like this.
I hope Camilla's taking notes and stops trying to sell Charles' old socks and toothbrushes on eBay. The tabs always find out.

Advance Peeks at Bourdain's "Medium Raw"
Naturally, Grub Street got its grubby hands on an advance copy of Anthony Bourdain's new book, Medium Raw, and published a smorgasbord of snarky bits. Nasty backlash has already begun in an Esquire blog post by John Mariani.
Only the first chapter has crossed my path, and I had a comparatively generous reaction…
Bourdain starts off describing a dinner party that could be from one of his crime novels, at an anonymous restaurant with "some of the most respected chefs in America," also unnamed. They're served a dish that's so illegal (and up there in grossness with warthog ass, in my opinion), they all eat with their napkins over their heads.
Then it gets good: Tony flashes back a few years to pre-Kitchen Confidential, slinging hash at a lunch counter, resentful and humiliated. He has nowhere to go but up. That's the part that left me "hungry for more."
Any day, I prefer Tony the working stiff to the gourmet hob-nobber — the writing feels truer — so I hope the book holds plenty more of that. And as a non-foodie, the evolution of Bourdain the writer/traveler interests me more than lengthy analyses of cuisine and the people who prepare or eat it.
I'll be in Barnes & Noble on publication day, June 8, to get the rest of the story.
Tony's publisher Ecco's parent, HarperCollins, lists the top 10 signs you're a Bourdain fanatic.
NBC Washington got a good-natured joint interview with Ripert and Tony before they appeared together in DC on May 21. Tony sees them as the Odd Couple. Ripert thinks they're Laurel & Hardy. How about you? I'm seeing Martin & Lewis, without Jerry's silly mugging.
That same night, thanks to a timely tweet from Ottavia, fans could catch Tony on Anderson Cooper 360° on CNN, where he talked about current events and deftly dismissed Sarah Palin as a serious contender for anything, right to Ted Nugent's face.
The LA Times reported on Bourdain's recent trip to Beirut to finish what he started. Tony shared with Newsweek his reaction to being nominated for an Emmy for the first Beirut episode.
On May 22, Bourdain and Ripert appeared in Baltimore, where some people are still apparently steamed over the NR episode he filmed there, according to the Baltimore Sun. The publication got a joint interview, as well.
Serious Eats asked readers for their opinions of Bourdain and got them. He certainly doesn't seem to attract fence-sitters.

Smithsonian Lion Cub Dead
Very sad news. I just tried to check the lion cam to see how the National Zoo's newest member is doing and found out that the little cub, a male less than 3 days old, died yesterday evening. They said he wasn't responding to his mother.
All of us at Cats Working send sympathy to his parents, Naba and Luke.
We've got a bit of sorrow here, too. Today marks one year since the passing of our Fred. I never knew Fred, but the big hole he left made it possible for me to join the family, so I'm grateful to him and hope he approves, wherever he is.

Smithsonian Zoo Has a New Lion Cub
And, at 2 days old, it's really cute.
On May 18, 6-year-old lioness Nababiep gave birth to the first cub born at the National Zoo in Washington in 20 years. They've put a camcorder on her and her cub, whose gender doesn't seem to be determined. Check it out.
Naba's mate is Luke, a 4-year-old lion she shares with her sister, Shera. So the little cub has an aunt.
The humans are in the process of getting the lions to live peacefully together in a pride. Video of the big cats meeting reminds me eerily of the first day I ventured into the living room and encountered Yul and Adele. That clip starts after the 2 women stop talking.

7 tips for remote work from digital nomads around the world
"Digital nomad" describes someone who travels full-time while working online. It's a lifestyle that offers enticing freedoms. But it also requires the ability to constantly adapt to new environments and find ways to work in places that aren't ideal. In the last few weeks, a lot more people started working remotely. But almost no one is traveling. Unfortunately, this sudden global shift to remote work is tied to the terrifying reality of a global pandemic. People who can are now working from home to reduce potential exposure and the spread of the novel coronavirus.

Why These Millennials are Abandoning America Forever
Why pay $2,000 for a shoebox in New York or San Francisco when I could have Cartagena, Bucharest or Chiang Mai instead?

Influential Women Discuss How To Fearlessly Navigate the Business World
The business world has woken up to the idea of female leadership. We hear dozens of success stories about powerful and influential women, from household names like Oprah Winfrey and Susan Wojcicki, to startup founders like Katrina Lake and Tracy Lawrence. Yet powerful women are often judged more harshly compared to their male peers. Yale School of Management's Victoria Brescoll led a study where participants read a fictional story about a police chief preparing for massive protests. In one version of the story, the protest got out of hand and the chief didn't send enough squad cars, resulting in 25 people getting injured.

Coronavirus Propels Millions of People to Work Remotely
COVID-19 (coronavirus) is impacting the world's population in a multitude of ways, and many of the long-term changes it will induce to our society will not be immediately apparent.

For years, these two industries have been increasing at a steady rate, but now businesses everywhere are testing out remote work for employees and clients.
The Future Of Work Is From Anywhere, at Anytime
Technology — including smartphones, social media and fast and reliable internet connectivity — seems to have come together in such a way as to capture our attention during every waking moment. Although such technology can harm those who misuse it, for many it has become an invaluable resource, dramatically improving their lives.
In the modern workplace, new technology and applications are appearing every day, enabling streamlined processes and improved productivity that boosts the bottom line. The question is: How can people move ahead as their lives at work and lives away from work become increasingly intertwined?
Can Your Company Benefit From Hiring Remote Workers?
The buzz around remote working is growing (and here to stay), as companies seek to gain a competitive advantage when it comes to hiring and retaining the best talent. In this economy, hiring top-notch employees has become increasingly more difficult and job-seekers themselves are more conscious of their need to establish a better work-life balance.

Business Bank Account Checklist: Documents You'll Need
Opening a business bank account requires more effort than opening a personal account – there are documents that need to be gathered, names to be determined and licenses to get in order – but all the work is worth it. "Always shop around," said Mike Swigunski, founder and CEO of Global Career. "Banks are as keen to gain new customers as much as they are to retain current ones, so use this to your advantage to get better deals."

Mike Swigunski: The Digital Nomad Helping the World Work Remotely
What do all of the following activities have in common: driving a tank in Lithuania, trekking on one of the world's largest glaciers in Patagonia, attending a wonderful wedding in India, hitch-hiking the entire south island of New Zealand, and taking part in Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany? The answer? Mike Swigunski was able to enjoy all of these experiences while still earning a six-figure income. He reckoned that wealth was more than just financial success, but also location independence (the ability to work from anywhere in the world) and "time-freedom" (the ability to be free from the constraints of the normal 9-to-5).
All the Tech and Gear You Need to Become a Digital Nomad
You already have a laptop, cell phone, and suitcase—but digital nomads recommend these must-haves to complete your remote office kit. After working from home for more than a year, we've gotten used to the absence of water-cooler gossip and desk lunches. Zoom calls are second nature now, and we've become masters of juggling work with kid (or cat) feedings, laundry, and cooking. Do we even know how to "office" anymore?
Building A $100 Million Amazon FBA Portfolio
In business, success depends on being able to see where trends are headed and opportunities lie.

Identifying trends is in the DNA of Thrasio founders Joshua Silberstein and Carlos Cashman. After speaking with multiple successful business owners, all signs were pointing towards Amazon. They repeatedly heard first-hand experiences from people that were absolutely "crushing it" on Amazon.

Preacher: Girls Who Were Princess Elsa for Halloween Were "Dressed Like a Whore" November 4, 2018 Hemant Mehta
Preacher: Girls Who Were Princess Elsa for Halloween Were "Dressed Like a Whore"
Brother Bruce Mejia is the preacher at Faithful Word Baptist Church in Los Angeles — an offshoot of the church of the same name in Arizona. Mejia is just as angry as Pastor Steven Anderson, too. In a sermon recently delivered to his congregation, he explained why celebrating Halloween is evil and why little girls who dress like Disney princesses are whores.
Because that's his takeaway from watching Frozen.
You know, obviously, this already passed yesterday, but Halloween. And I know many sermons have been preached on this, but this ticks me off. The pastors — these supposed men of God — never touch this with a ten foot pole! They don't talk about it at all!
They don't want to preach against it. You know why? Because their kids are out there going — I was going to say soul winning — Halloweening. You know, their kids are the ones dressing up like devils. Worshipping the devil on the 31st. So they're too scared to say anything from the pulpit regardless of that because it'll make them look like what? Like hypocrites. Well, guess what? They're already hypocrites! Because they're letting their kids do it. Aww, they're just trying to have fun. You know what? Sodomites want to have fun, too. Does that make it right, what they do?
So don't give me this, it's nothing bad. It's the Devil's night!
Well everyone's doing it. So what? If that person jumped off a bridge, would you do it too? No.
So we as Christians, when this stuff comes around, we need to be the ones who are casting down that imagination and say, "Sorry to crash the party, Christians. But your trunk-or-treat is wicked." "Sorry to, you know, crash the party on this whole fun you're having here, I know you already bought your Frozen costume, but trick-or-treating… is wicked as hell, and you're worshipping Satan actually, and your daughter is dressed like a whore, because that girl in Frozen is a whore. Sorry to crash the party on you about that. She's not a princess. She's a whore."
And every princess from Disney is a rebellious girl who has forsaken her leader, her fathers, okay? She's forsaken the covenant of her youth. She's not under authority. And she's teaching every single person who's watching her to be the same! Sorry to rain down on your parade, but I'm just here to cast doubt on this stronghold and just kill the party. Okay?
But you know what that's called? That's called a reality check that people need. And pastors hate that stuff. They hate when this one pastor or these two pastors get up and they say these things. Well, whether you hate it or not, you know, I hate every false way! So… You pastors need to get right with God and put these children in subjection with all gravity, and say "We're not doing Halloween anymore." You know, "I'll order you a pizza if you want, for the 31st, but you ain't going nowhere. We're not doing this. It's the Devil's holiday.
Well. That settles it. I didn't realized I was supposed to actually worship Satan on Halloween. And I didn't realize the costume of a Disney princess amounted to a statement about sexuality. Or that candy was the Devil's Nectar.
You'd think a guy who always pretends to preach about God's love would understand more about how costumes work… but I guess it's only evil when other people pretend to be someone they're not.

It was around this time last year that the news coffee was actually good for us had begun to sink in. Months of building cheer on the Coffee - Friend not Vice front finally culminated in the fall of 2015 with the release of a Harvard School of Public Health study that connected a daily coffee habit to longevity. All manner of experts chimed in to say this or that wonderful thing about our favourite drink and it was the best fall, wasn't it?
Nothing can top the high of that fall so now we're knuckling down to institutionalizing this good news. Our first task has been an encyclopedic reference on the health impacts of coffee. Don't worry - this encyclopedic opinion supports the general viewpoint that coffee is A-OK, in moderation, taken as simply as possible (no additives) and so on. All that really matters is: the coffee party continues.
This past summer, Green Beanery volunteer and aspiring medical student, Anna Folwell, created for us a round-up of the various effects of coffee on a range of health concerns. In doing so, Anna uncovered a veritable A to U (some letters did not warrant coverage) of current medical opinion and everything we might want to know in relation to coffee and a particular ailment of the body. See: Medical Coffee Encyclopedia.
For instance, you might think coffee should be avoided in the case of a diagnosis of anemia. Well, you would be right. Coffee does not mix with anemia, it can inhibit the absorption of iron and worsen the condition, even potentially cause it in those susceptible to it.
But, for the most part, Anna's encyclopedic findings were positive. Oral cancer, for example, is reduced in risk by coffee consumption. Many things are - dementia ... What else from the D's? Let's see: depression, diabetes but not so much diarrhea (some things are common sense after all). But common sense isn't always reliable: for example, gallstones. You might think coffee should definitely be avoided there but no, it was identified as having a possible preventative effect on symptomatic gallstone disease.
The list goes on and on and covers a number of things none of us ever want to think about. But life can be cruel and if you are worried or curious about the health effects of coffee in regards to a specific problem, feel free to consult our Medical Coffee Encyclopedia. It is mostly good, often surprisingly good news when the news is otherwise ... not.
Coffee, Anna Folwell, thanks you.


Room dividers are a contemporary option for both small and large rooms. They can help make living spaces more functional, can bring privacy to open-plan living and often can be useful pieces of furniture themselves. On top of that, room dividers are often stylish and attractive additions.
So whether you're looking to divide rooms for more efficient use of space, add an accent piece that will give a room character, or hide areas and enhance privacy, room dividers may be the solution you're looking for. Permanent or temporary, functional or decorative, here are various ways to visually separate spaces without losing that sense of open-plan living.
Great idea for the office wall. Can close off or have it open.

Antípatro de Tiro (; ) foi um filósofo estoico, contemporâneo de Marco Pórcio Catão Uticense e Cícero. Diz-se que Antípatro se tornou amigo de Catão quando este era jovem. Parece ser o mesmo Antípatro de Tiro que é mencionado por Estrabão.

Viveu depois, ou pelo menos era mais novo que Panécio de Rodes. Cícero, falando dele, diz que morreu "recentemente em Atenas", o que significaria pouco tempo depois de . A partir desta passagem pode ser inferido que Antípatro escreveu uma obra intitulada "Sobre os Deveres" (), e Diógenes Laércio refere-se a uma obra escrita por Antípatro denominada "Sobre o Cosmos" ():
