DOUGLAS HALLOWEEN PARADE FOR ADULTS 20 Year Anniversary!
9:30 PM [Parade lineup] 10:00 PM [Parade STEPS OFF!] Center Street Downtown Douglas, Michigan.
For the perpetual "Peter Pan and Wendy" this parade is not to be missed! It is an extravaganza of creativity in costuming and performances.
Parade lineup just got more fun, with the addition of Borrowed Time Bar and Restaurant in the middle of lineup, offering food and drinks, a DJ, fun lights, and a red carpet for photos.
The party starts downtown when DJ Eddie Green drops the beats starting at 9pm. The party continues around town at participating bars with costume competitions.


Learn how to install a sliding truck bed drawer system!
Do you like heading off on a roadtrip in your pickup?? This upgrade project for your vehicle will make getaways even more enjoyable!
Pickup trucks are great for heading off on an adventure with friends and family. You can simply place a mat on the rear bed and you're ready to relax and sleep. But getting a good place to lie down is impossible if you've got tons of stuff occupying that rear bed.
The solution is to build a bed with drawers in your truck, so that there's a place for all your travel necessities and a place to sleep.
Though this might seem like a big DIY project, it's easy to accomplish as long as you take time with measuring and planning. This tutorial shows you the essential features of a good truck bed and drawer system.
Cut your masonit and 3/4 plywood about a half inch short of the length of the inside of the bed.
Glue and screw them together like the photo. The board on the face was temporary.
Slide it in the bed and center it.
If you have a bed liner, mark the ribs at each corner. Drill the 4 corners and insert a 1/2″ bolt.
The frame will not be able to slide left or right.
Build your drawers 2 1/4″ less then the openings.
Cut a 1/4 inch grove at the bottom of the 1×10″ and glue the plywood to slide in for the drawer bottoms.
Bolt the square tubing to the side of the drawers. About a 1/4 of the way up from the bottom. Making sure that the drawer will be about 3/8″ above the masonite.
Then bolt the bearings on top and bottom.
There should be at least a 1/8″ gap between the top bearing and square tubing when drawer is closed.

Energy profile
Extent of network
Distribution networks cover 88% of the population, with about 8% of the connections thought to be illegal.
Renewable energy potential
HydropowerIn 2008 the Dominican Republic had an installed hydroelectric capacity of 470 MW, accounting for 14% of electricity generating capacity. It is expected that, by 2012, an additional 762 MW will have been added. The 50 MW hydroelectric Pinalito has started generating energy in 2009 while it is expected that the 99 MW Palomino hydroelectric, in the southwest, shall start operations in 2011. Construction is under way, or contracts have been signed, for 356 MW of new hydro plants. In addition, several hundred MW of new hydro projects are in different stages of development. Solar energyA high potential sector. In February 2009, the Dominican Republic signed an agreement with US firm Sunovia Energy Technologies for the installation of the country's first solar energy plant of 20 MW. There are also estimates of 2,899 MW of solar PV projects, but these would not be economically worthwhile based on current estimates.Wind energyAbout 350 MW of wind projects have already been approved.Biomass energyThe $350 million Fenix Project from RJS Group is set to produce 100 million gallons of ethanol per year, using sweet sorghum as feedstock, and generate 55/60 MW of electricity.In January 2009, the Dominican State-owned power companies (CDEEE) and the US based company Koar Energy Resources signed an agreement to generate energy from vegetable waste.
Energy framework
Approved in 2007, the Renewable Energies Incentive Law 57-07 grants incentives and tax exemptions on alternative energy imports and facilities for research and application of renewable energy technologies. Law 57-07 eliminates former law 2071, opening the country for the development of alternate energy sources. The new law's incentives, include the following:- 100% exemption over import duties for equipment, machinery and accessories required for renewable energy production.- Income tax exemption. A 10-year exemption from all taxation on profits up to, but not beyond, the year 2020.- Fixing of the electricity price from renewables that enters the national grid to the price of the market for the distributors.- Tax incentive for Self-Producers. Up to a 75% credit on capital cost for businesses' shift entirely to renewable energy systems or increase their energy consumption share in these. This tax credit will be deferred to the self-producer's income tax for the next 3 years.- Community Projects Incentives. Every and all institution of social interest (community organizations, producers associations, registered mutual groups) willing to develop renewable energy sources at a small scale (up to 500 KW) and destined to a community use, may access financial assistance funds at the lowest market rate for developing these projects, for up to 75% cost of the works and its installation.Authorities overseeing every electric subsector are committed to ensuring that 25% of service needs by 2025 shall be supplied from renewable energy sources. By 2015, at least 10% of the energy purchased by the distributors and trading companies shall originate from renewable sources of energy.

Good Practice Study on GHG-Inventories for the Waste Sector in Non-Annex l Countries
The study aims to provide comprehensive guidance to policy makers and practitioners in developing countries [Non-Annex I countries to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)] for the preparation of national greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories for the waste sector. Though GHG emissions from the waste sector are still comparatively low compared to other sectors, they are continuously rising in developing countries due to changing production and consumption patterns. Experience shows that emissions from this sector can be reduced significantly at relatively low costs.
Buenas Practicas de refrigeración
This manual should provide professional guidance on how to service and maintain refrigeration systems operating with new technology, e.g. ozone- and climate-friendly alternative refrigerants to CFCs and HCFCs. It addresses essential know-how on containment of HFC refrigerants which have a high global warming potential (GWP) and provides information on the safe use of environmental-friendly natural refrigerants, such as CO2, ammonia or hydrocarbons.
Factsheet: Proklima - Green cooling for a warming world
Almost as much energy is used for refrigeration, air conditioning and insulation worldwide as for transport or heating. On behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the GIZ 'Proklima' project has now been working for some 15 years to help introduce environment- and climate-friendly alternatives to ozonedepleting industrial gases (such as chlorofluorocarbon, CFCs) in partner countries. Proklima thus supports developing and emerging countries in fulfilling their obligations arising from the Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer.

This movie explains the link between cooling, climate change and sustainable development! It begins with the introduction of a cold chain, which plays a crucial part for food safety: Currently, up to 40 % of all foodstuffs go to waste due to a lack of proper cold storage. The second part of the movie portrays refrigeration and air-conditioning as part of our little "Green Cooling- family", who discovers various uses of cooling in their life and learns about its effects on the world's climate.

Q: autocreate schema with jdo, spring and H2 with datanucleus I Recently migrated to using the spring framework for DI - working fine.  I'm injecting a persistence manager which also works fine.  On a new install, I get:
SEVERE: Required table missing .... Either your MetaData is incorrect, or you need to enable "datanucleus.autoCreateTables"

Fair enough, I'm not enabling autocreate tables.
I create my persistence manager like this in the spring context.xml per the doc:
 <bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource" destroy-method="close">
        <property name="driverClassName" value="org.h2.Driver"/>
        <property name="url" value="jdbc:h2:./thedbpath.db;MV_STORE=FALSE;MVCC=FALSE;FILE_LOCK=NO"/>
        <property name="username" value=""/>
        <property name="password" value=""/>

    </bean>

    <bean id="pmf" class="org.datanucleus.api.jdo.JDOPersistenceManagerFactory" destroy-method="close">
        <property name="connectionFactory" ref="dataSource"/>
        <property name="nontransactionalRead" value="true"/>

    </bean>

everything works - but i can't figure out where to set the datanucleus.autoCreateTables
This normally would be set in the persistence.xml - I don't see where to put datanucleus properties in the spring context.xml.  Thanks in advance
edit: thanks to the answer below, this was the correct config:
<bean id="pmf" class="org.springframework.orm.jdo.LocalPersistenceManagerFactoryBean">
        <property name="jdoProperties">
            <props>
                <prop key="javax.jdo.PersistenceManagerFactoryClass">
                    org.datanucleus.api.jdo.JDOPersistenceManagerFactory
                </prop>
                <prop key="javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL">jdbc:h2:./database/db;MV_STORE=FALSE;MVCC=FALSE;;FILE_LOCK=NO</prop>
                <prop key="javax.jdo.option.ConnectionUserName">sa</prop>
                <prop key="javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword"></prop>
                <prop key="javax.jdo.option.ConnectionDriverName">org.h2.Driver</prop>
                <prop key="org.jpox.autoCreateSchema">true</prop>
                <prop key="org.jpox.identifier.case">PreserveCase</prop>
                <prop key="datanucleus.autoCreateTables">true</prop>
            </props>
        </property>
    </bean>

A: This page
http://www.datanucleus.org/products/accessplatform_3_0/guides/jdo/springframework/index.html
has a "jdoProperties" property that can be used to specify JDO implementation-specific properties. Maybe try that?

Landlocked Ethiopia May Establish Naval Base at Kenyan Port

Lamu port in Kenya
By Nizar Manek and David Herbling | Bloomberg
Ethiopia, landlocked since the secession of Eritrea a quarter century ago, may consider building a naval base in neighboring Kenya to strengthen its military capabilities, the head of the state shipping company said.
The facility could form part of a port the Kenyan government is building at Lamu, said Roba Megerssa Akawak, chief executive officer of the state-owned Ethiopian Shipping & Logistics Services Enterprise. The 390 billion-shilling ($3.87 billion) harbor near the border with Somalia is part of the so-called Lapsset project, a transport corridor that envisions linking Ethiopia and South Sudan to Kenya.
Information Minister Ahmed Shide said he was unaware of any discussions between the two countries, Ethiopia's interest in Lamu is mainly economic and that Roba isn't in a position to have knowledge about talks with Kenya's government. Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed's call last month for the establishment of a naval force was "a future possibility," the information minister said. "We can only give information when we know the future plan."
Abiy secured an agreement with Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta last month to develop land at Lamu for "logistical facilitation." The country relies on Djibouti and Sudan for access to the sea.
Somaliland Port
Last year, Ethiopia agreed to take a share in a joint venture with DP World Ltd. to administer a port at Berbera, in the semi-autonomous region of Somaliland in northern Somalia, which will host a United Arab Emirates military airport and a naval base.
"Countries cooperate in naval activities and Ethiopia should really consider this," Roba said in an interview in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa Wednesday. "The decision by the government to have naval interests in cooperation with other countries or of its own is very important and crucial and timely."
A navy would be useful not only in protecting ESLSE's fleet of 11 civilian vessels, which sail to the Indian subcontinent, the Far East and the Black Sea, but in protecting the "very volatile" Red Sea area where Ethiopia has other economic interests "and there are conflicting political interests," Roba said.
Neighboring Djibouti, through which 90 percent of Ethiopia's inbound trade is channeled, may be unsuitable for an Ethiopian naval facility because it already hosts facilities for global powers including the largest U.S. military base in Africa and the first such overseas post for China's armed forces, Roba said.
'Efficient' Location
Djibouti is "controlled by naval forces that surround the area," he said. "We are afraid perhaps in the future that even Djibouti may not have its own say to really decide on its own fate. This is quite a threat to Ethiopia."
Roba considers Lamu "an efficient" location to host an Ethiopian base. "The distance from inland Ethiopia will be countered by other benefits," he said, without elaborating.
Ethiopia disbanded its navy in 1996, three years after Eritrea gained independence after a three-decade war. The secession deprived Ethiopia of 2,234 kilometers (1,388 miles) of coastline. In 2015, the government adopted a logistics strategy to use multiple ports in the region to improve its external trade.
Kenyan Transport Principal Secretary Paul Maringa said he wasn't able to comment because he doesn't have details of the discussions with the Ethiopian government.

I have recently made myself a skirt. It was using a cotton stretch jersey and a pattern from burda style magazine. The vivid colours and pattern on the fabric just fascinates me. I just can't wait to turn into something I can wear. I didn't run into issues of cutting out the pattern and sewing the skirt up till I came to sewing the zip onto the skirt. It did take me ages to perfect it!! Every time I try to sew it on, it seems to have bulge noticeably when it's zip up.
I found out that it is also quite a common problem when using invisible zip on stretch fabrics after going into dressmaking forums. There is a lot of fantastic YouTube videos and posts around on how insert an invisible zip but not many on how to address the issue/s that arise.
I will post some detailed troubleshooting on invisible zip in the future as I am planning to change domain name at the moment. A domain name like cityediblegarden just doesn't sound good for a sewing blog.
I have match this skirt with a Hugo boss top I got from charity shop. I have match this skirt in my post on in between season in which will be publish on a latter date.

Excerpt: The Good, the Bad, and the Vampire by Sara Humphreys
Happy Publication Day to Sara Humphreys for The Good, the Bad, and the Vampire out today from Sourcebooks Casablanca.
The Good, the Bad, and the Vampire
Dead in the City 4
Sourcebooks Casablanca, January 5, 2016
Mass Market Paperback and eBook, 320 pages
Book 4 of the Dead in the City series
Beloved author Sara Humphreys' acclaimed paranormal romance series continues with sweltering attraction between two vampires who have all the time in the world to satisfy their desires…
He wants eternity?
Dakota Shelton is a vampire cowboy with a penchant for cinnamon lollipops and Johnny Cash. Though highly skilled and deadly dangerous to his enemies, he's still a Texas good ol' boy at heart. And he has that heart set on wooing Trixie LaRoux—the most badass punk rock chick in town—the old-fashioned way.
Over her undead body...
Trixie is tough as nails and sharp as a silver stake—the last thing she wants is a man to sit on a porch and not grow old with. So it'll take going to hell and back fighting a new threat to vampires before she admits Dakota's courtship makes her blood hum. Turns out chivalry's not dead after all.
Trixie couldn't remember the last time she went to a little girl's birthday party but it certainly wasn't since becoming a vampire.
Olivia and Doug might have been two of the world's most powerful vampires, but they had also become the first vampire parents in recorded history. Today was their daughter Emily's second birthday and they were throwing her a big old party, complete with birthday cake and balloons.
Trixie had gone back and forth all day long about whether or not to attend.
Being around little Emily was bittersweet on a regular day and the birthday celebration would only heighten Trixie's struggle. But choosing not to go would have been selfish. Trixie's personal drama wasn't Emily's fault, and she didn't want to disappoint the adorable little redheaded cherub. Not only that, Emily was Olivia's daughter and since Olivia was Trixie's maker, that made her family.
Not showing up would have been rotten.
Olivia would have understood if Trixie bailed out; she knew her better than anyone else. But Olivia's Bloodmate, Doug, wouldn't understand her absence from such a celebrated event. Neither would the other members of the coven.
Nope. Trixie decided to do what she always did. She'd put on a smile, make a wise-ass comment or two, and act like nothing and nobody bothered her.
A familiar voice pulled her from her thoughts as she strode down the stone hallways of the Presidium's underground facility, buried deep beneath Fort Tryon Park and The Cloisters in New York City, "Well, smack my ass and call me Sally."
The deep southern drawl echoed around her, stopping Trixie dead in her tracks. A shiver of lust whispered beneath her skin as it usually did whenever he was nearby, but she swiftly shoved it aside.
"Okay, Sally." Trixie rolled her shoulder and fought the buzz of attraction. "But you can smack your own ass."
"What's the matter, darlin'?" The rumbling baritone of his voice soaked with that southern twang, drifted over her shoulder but she didn't spare him a glance. Trixie continued toward Olivia and Doug's apartment door, forcing herself to put one foot in front of the other. "Don't I even get a hello?"
"Hello, Dakota," she said, with a roll of her eyes.
Coming to this little gathering for Emily was difficult enough and his arrival only ratcheted her anxiety up a notch. Damn it. Why wasn't he out on patrol? Over the past few months, the cocky and admittedly gorgeous sentry, had become more and more present in her little corner of the universe.
Trixie fiddled with the box in her hands, the one she'd wrapped carefully with the pink and white skull and crossbones paper. She didn't even bother to put a card with it. Everyone would know who'd brought it. She was the only coven member with bright pink hair and a penchant for skulls and crossbones, after all.
"That your present for little Emily?" He asked. "You wrapped it real nice."
He got closer by the second.
"No," Trixie snorted. "I just like carrying around a gift wrapped box for the hell of it. You know, for shits and giggles."
She was being a snot but she couldn't help herself.
Trixie kept her gaze pinned to the mammoth mahogany door at the end of the hallway and tried not to notice that he'd sidled up next to her, his stride matching hers.
Dakota Shelton, the newest sentry for the Presidium, the vampire government, was not an easy man to ignore.
His six foot two inch broad shouldered frame towered over her easily but there was something else about him that set her on edge. It was the way he carried himself. He moved effortlessly and casually, as if he was just the good-old boy from Texas he claimed to be.
But Trixie knew better.

Defense Motions for Man Charged with Deserting Baby in Woods
Attorneys for 32 year-old Francis Crowley have asked for certain evidence to be excluded in his case.
Crowley is charged with two felonies, criminal endangerment and assault on a minor in the case of a missing baby that was miraculously found by law enforcement officers last summer in the hills near Lolo Hot Springs Resort.
Deputy County Attorney Brittney Williams is the prosecutor in the case,
"Authorities were summoned to Lolo Hot Springs for a report of an individual who had been trespassing on the property," said Williams. "They'd also received numerous reports that there was an individual who was in an altercation with another person, and there were also reports that a child was missing and that essentially Mr. Crowley had run his car up the mountainside and a child was missing. Law enforcement responded to help locate the child and after eight or nine hours the child was ultimately found."
The child was found face down in the woods covered in sticks and debris, but alive.
Defense attorneys have filed a motion to suppress certain evidence and Williams is preparing her response for District Judge Karen Townsend.
"Typically, assault on a minor carries a five year prison sentence," she said. "However, because the child was under 36 months, there's an enhancement to 10 years in prison. Additionally, the criminal endangerment is currently a 10 year term in prison."
Crowley remains in the Missoula County Jail on $200,000 bond.
Williams said trial for Crowley is currently scheduled for March 1.

She put her hand to the window, feeling the icy frost clinging to the other side. Another Christmas season, another joyous month that wasn't feeling quite so joyous anymore. She struggled to remember who was coming for Christmas this year. Was it all her kids? Or just some? What about the grandkids? She couldn't remember quite how many she had. She sighed and dropped her hand. Turning around, she caught her husband staring at her from the other room. Worried, always worried. It was tiresome being worried about all the time. The presents sat under the tree, all wrapped and beautiful. Well, not as beautiful as she would have wrapped them, but it seemed her husband didn't think her capable of that this year. Maybe, just maybe, Christmas would be a good day. Maybe she'd remember everyone's names and why they were all there. Her hand gripped the chair in front of her, knuckles turning white with tension.
Tom watched her from across the room. What was she thinking? Was it a good day or a bad one? He knew she was worried about the holidays this year. More often than not these days, she couldn't remember most of the basics. And he knew between her stress and all of the kids' anxiety over her not remembering, it would be a difficult few days. For the first time in his life, he wished they could just cancel Christmas. It wasn't worth it. Better to just get on with life like they'd been doing every day lately, one step forward, little by little. Christmas just posed a reason for everyone to have expectations and memories. And big groups tended to stress Genevieve out. He sighed and looked at all the presents under the tree. Presents that he'd picked out and clumsily wrapped. He was sure his kids would notice the difference in the quality of the gifts and the wrapping. Another thing he would need to learn now that she was slipping away.
The holiday season can be a stressful one for those struggling with Alzheimer's disease and their loved ones. Life is out of the normal routine, a lot of people are around, and it's a time of memory-rehashing and family dynamics that aren't what they've always been. Remembering this, holding space for the grief and the disappointment, is key to making it through the holidays with dementia. Though your loved one may not be able to remember your name or who you are to them, they can sit with you. They can bring the gift of their presence, and laughter is a universal experience that takes no memories.
In order to not just make it through the holidays when dealing with a loved one with Alzheimer's, but to actually enjoy it, the key is to prepare for what it will be. Don't hold high expectations, don't try and get your loved one to remember. Talk, laugh, and sit together. Remember that you are the one carrying on the legacy they're leaving behind, even if they don't remember that legacy. Remember it for them.
And, of course, everyone can enjoy twinkling lights, hot chocolate, and warm blankets by the fire.

After a relaxing afternoon in camp, we fuelled up and took in the surroundings. We spend most of the time with our tent buddies Mark, Harry, Mark H, Digby, Nathan and Paul. We also have the boys next door Chip, Craig and Dr Steve. It's a solid crew with lots of banter. I think the Welshman comes out worse off most of the time.
We bed down at 8pm to get as much recovery sleep as possible. Day 2 is set to be a quick one. They have reduced the stage to 31km and added 10km to the long day taking it to 90km.
After a quick breakfast of oats, frooze balls and a coffee whilst reading my card for the morning from my amazing wife, Emma. It's a pick me up and lovely way to stay connected whilst being so far away.
We line up and the gun goes. The pace is set at a lightning speed. The top 4 take off with Aussie, David chasing them down. Blake and I settle into a chase group pace with Gautier, a French 100km and 100mile specialist from Lyon. Stage one is a moderate stage and we keep the hammer down the whole time. Up and down the hills and especially on the flats.
We fly through checkpoint 1 and I'm sucking down tailwind and stingers as I'm feeling the energy deplete. We then hit the hills. They are brutal and we try to keep the pace up. Gautier drops off the back as the heat starts to rise leaving Blake and I to punch on. That's when I start to fall apart. The lack of calories for breakfast and the blistering pace in the first section comes back to haunt me. I crash, hard. I keep pressing on with Blake setting the pace whilst I shove shot blocks, tailwind and endurolytes in to try and get the energy reserves up. A good 45mins of digging deep on a very hilly section and I start to see the light. My energy starts to pick up and we start to head down the hill to checkpoint 2.
We hit checkpoint 2 and fill up quickly before heading along the railway tracks towards camp for the night. We set in to a steady pace and start making ground on a competitor ahead of us. 5km in, we catch him. It's David, the Aussie from 7th place the day before. He was hurting too. We picked him up and he jumped on the back as we rolled into the camp for the night. A tough day done. So 5,6,7th place all finishing together (depending on who got the timing chip cleared first).
An afternoon of recovery ahead. I need to sort my food strategy out and make sure I start the 3rd day with enough calories in the tank to carry me through.
A special mention to my sister as it's her birthday today. Sorry I can't be there.
Sending my love to my girls back home. Emma the amazing wife and mum to Maela the sweetest princess I have ever met and Camille the most daring and loving princess I have ever met.
You can't miss Rich in his 'hot pants'. Middle one.

During the bike section of an Ironman you will burn between 3000 and 5000 calories, which makes regular snacking vital in order to maintain energy levels. The easier it is to grab a snack, the more likely you are to do it. In the middle of a long tough ride you won't feel like digging gels or bars out of a deep back pocket, so keep them on your bike where you can access them easily. Bento boxes are a good idea (Velcro snack boxes that attach to your top tube) or you could try filling a bike bottle with energy gels.
On a flat road, aerodynamic drag is by far the greatest barrier to a cyclist's speed, accounting for 70 to 90 percent of the resistance felt when pedaling. Your bike and more importantly your body position both make a big difference to this. But how do you know if you're aerodynamic or not? There are several ways - here's an article I co-wrote with Chris Boardman for BikeRadar.com. Or you can try BestBikeSplit.com who have developed the ability to predict your drag coefficient from the measurements of your bike and other details such as your weight, type of bike, height and power output. You'll need a cycle power meter, but it's still a viable alternative to forking out £1000 on a wind-tunnel session.
Functional Threshold Power (or FTP) refers to the highest average power in watts that you can ride for an hour. It's a classic measure of cycling fitness and it's particularly relevant to endurance events such as triathlons. You can test yours out by riding a 20-minute time trial as fast as you can, using a power meter. After you've done the test multiply your average power for the 20-minute test by 95% - this gives a good estimate of your current FTP. This is something we aim to do every 12 week with our triathlon coaching clients. The beauty of FTP is that it's very trainable. A good sample workout would be 3x15mins at 90% of your FTP, with 60secs recoveries. Ironman athletes should aim to ride at 67-79% of FTP during their race - the higher percentages are reserved for elite athletes, whereas back-markers should aim nearer 67% of FTP.
Before doing an Ironman, it's important to set realistic data-driven goals. This will help you stay mentally strong because you are less likely to feel like you're failing. Testing your 1500 swim pace will give you a good idea of your swim potential –aim for 85-90% of your 1500m pace for an Ironman swim - or slightly faster if you're wearing a wetsuit. On the bike aim for 67 to 79 percent of your Functional Threshold Power –or for a more accurate forecast try using BestBikeSplit.com. On the run, providing you've ridden sensibly, you should aim to run 5-10% slower than your typical long-run training pace. We have had fantastic results using this method on our triathlon coaching clients.
We've had great results from our triathlon coaching clients with these tips, hopefully they'll work for you too.


Edward Snowden, the former National Security Agency worker, is back in the news. On Capitol Hill, a House committee met in secret today. Members approved a new report about how Snowden leaked classified documents from the NSA three years ago.
The war over government access to encryption is moving to the battlefield on which Apple told the Justice Department it should always have taken place: Capitol Hill.
The leaders of the Senate Intelligence Committee have introduced a bill that would mandate those receiving a court order in an encryption case to provide "intelligible information or data" or the "technical means to get it" — in other words, a key to unlock secured data.
Loose nukes and dirty bombs are the talk of Washington today as President Obama hosts a summit with more than 50 world leaders. They're here largely because of a challenge Obama issued in 2009 barely two months into his presidency.
As national security has come to dominate the 2016 presidential race, the GOP contenders in particular are being pushed to define where they stand on a contentious matter: how suspected terrorists should be interrogated. Specifically, they've been asked about the currently banned use of waterboarding — a simulated drowning technique the CIA used on at least three alleged terrorists.
In this country, the Pentagon has been looking for new places to hold detainees from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, the prison President Obama wants too close. One possibility is Fremont County in southeastern Colorado. NPR's David Welna paid a visit.
It took a little prodding, but CIA director John Brennan talked this week about what it's like for the spymaster to be spied on. NPR's David Welna reports.
Benghazi Panel: Witch Hunt Or Search For Truth?
OK, so a big debate here over whether this committee is just after Hillary Clinton or asking serious and probing questions about a tragic event. Last week, Kansas Republican Mike Pompeo, who's on the committee, told us it is the latter.
Obama's plan to leave 5,500 U.S. troops in Afghanistan at the end of his term means he won't fulfill a promise to remove all American forces from that war zone. While he added the disclaimer, "I do not support the idea of endless war," he also said he's not disappointed.
In hopes that it can persuade Congress to drop its prohibition on transferring detainees in Guantanamo to American soil, the White House is hunting for a highly secure place in the U.S. for some 50 detainees. Labeled as "enemy combatants," they've been held for more than a decade without trial in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, at a camp President Obama has promised to close.
Unlike the 52 other captives at Guantanamo whose release can occur as soon as a country is found to take them, these detainees are considered too dangerous to release at all. They're known as "unreleasables."
When President Obama announced a year ago that he was authorizing new military operations in Iraq, he drew sharp limits on that action.
It would only comprise, he said, "targeted airstrikes to protect our American personnel, and a humanitarian effort to help save thousands of Iraqi civilians who are trapped on a mountain without food and water and facing almost certain death."
Airstrikes began the next day to rescue the Yazidi people who were trapped on Iraq's Mount Sinjar.


Let the record show: both Science and Scripture reveal a God who is brilliant and wise, powerful and precise, intimate and personal. Every molecule and magnetar demonstrate a vast, rich, and beautiful creation. When we better understand the power and genius of God's creation, it helps us to rest in His sovereignty.
A 2000 Focus on the Family national broadcast based on the information in this book was their most requested tape of that year.
A staggering book about the wonders of the universe and God's creative work in every cell of our bodies. Written in layman's language, this futurist and Professor of Medicine introduces us to both physics and Scripture in a reverent painting of God's splendor and handiwork. Each of us is a miracle of complexity, yet we are His loved children, through whom He is doing His work today.
More Than Meets the Eye offers exactly what the subtitle accurately promises: fascinating glimpses of God's power and design. Science and faith, when looked at with what Luther called "reason redeemed by grace," consistently connect to show God's handiwork, God's fingerprints, God's footprints everywhere--from the largest star to the smallest particle. This book is a fascinating glimpse for those willing to look at creation and the Creator with intellectual integrity and spiritual authenticity.
This book will take you to the smallest known reaches of science and in the process expand your horizons exponentially. Don't be fooled into thinking scientists know everything, for the deeper they dig, the less the established laws of science apply. There are dimensions where the concept of Jesus being here, there and everywhere become relevant and what we consider possible and impossible is thrown on its ear. Properly applied, the study of physics is a gateway to the realm of the Divine and this is the book to start you on your journey.

Students seeking advanced study in literature, history, theory, and analysis should take the literature concentration in English, which combines the historical and critical study of literature with innovative approaches to critical methods, women's studies, nontraditional literatures, and other literatures in English from around the globe. The literature concentration exposes students to a range of texts in English from the Middle Ages to the present day. All English majors begin their study in the major with a two-semester Introduction to Literary Study, which lays a firm groundwork in critical analysis, reasoned argument, and lucid expression. Literature is the concentration of choice for those who intend to pursue graduate study in English or in other fields such as law, business, urban planning, and library science. WSU graduates with concentrations in English have been especially successful working in such fields as fundraising and development, arts administration, government, journalism, and publishing. Two student organizations—The English Club and Fogdog Review staff offer enriching activities and opportunities throughout the school year.


MANILA - President Rodrigo Duterte personally made a decision to let China conduct scientific research off the Philippines' Pacific coast, his spokesman said on Monday, despite concern among critics about threats to maritime sovereignty.
Presidential spokesman Harry Roque said that as chief architect of foreign policy, Duterte allowed China to work with the University of the Philippines in Benham Rise, an area roughly the size of Greece and believed by some scientists to be rich in biodiversity and tuna.
The United Nations declared Benham Rise, off the Pacific coast, part of the continental shelf of the Philippines in 2012. Manila last year renamed it the "Philippine Rise".
Though China does not lay claim to the area, the lingering presence of its vessels for several months in late 2016 triggered concern about its intentions.
In Beijing, foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang told reporters China would carry out "scientific activities" in the area this month and the next, and it appreciated receiving the agreement of the Philippines.
China welcomes Philippine scientists to join in, he told a regular briefing.
The Philippines granting of the permission to China was not announced and was revealed a few days ago by a lawmaker who has been fiercely critical of Duterte's close ties with Beijing.
The Philippines and China have a long history of maritime squabbles over sovereignty in the South China Sea, but there has been no disagreement about waters off Manila's Pacific coast.
Roque said anyone opposed to the joint research project should go to Congress and raise the issue there.
"If this is not a wise move of the president, then a law could be enacted to prohibit it," he said.
The Philippines would grant permission to any other country that might show interest in conducting maritime research at Benham Rise, he added.


To hear more from Dr. Leon Stutzman, click above.
I have and that's why I wrote "The Theory of Everything" and developed the website www.docstutzman.com. Because I know now what I didn't know then and I want to help you to maximize your potential in life and ministry.
If you don't know me you may be asking, "How qualified is this guy?" The short answer—"Very".
I've had almost fifty years of ministry—the last forty-two have been extremely successful. I've build two significant church, planted others, preaching in some of the largest churches in America (and some of the smallest too!). I've seen the supernatural, made some great connections, earned a few degrees, and even been certified as a life coach.
Speaking of that—I wanted the certification for validations so I had a friend reach out to a well know, well respected, Christian behavioral company with my requests and they responded by saying, "We don't normally do that but we know of Dr. Stutzman so we will." The certificate hangs on my wall.
Read the book. Visit the website. Every week I blog and vlog insights and exercises that will help you to succeed in life and ministry. And did I mention that the book is free to U.S. pastors?


The original pin led me to a site called Mrs. Rooter, but I guess Mr. Rooter had a talk with Mrs. Rooter and told her that women don't like fart jokes (false) and so now Mrs. Rooter is entirely populated with inspirational quotes. Boo. I had to do some digging to find the new home of the Farts and Crafts project, and apparently it didn't make the transition from Mrs. Rooter to Mr. Rooter unscathed because it's now missing the pictures.
But I really wanted to make this, so I decided it wouldn't be that hard to do it with the text instructions and a little reverse engineering. Right?
Now here's where it gets tricky. There is some sort of folding that happens which is in thirds, but then the instructions reference a mysterious four "outer sections." I ended up folding it in thirds the short way and the long way, just to make the instructions make sense. The pen lines are so you can see where the fold marks are.
Did you ever have to take those aptitude tests in school where they'd show you a drawing of a folded paper and ask you what it would look like if you punched a hole in a certain place and then unfolded the paper? I don't know what kind of smart that is, but I don't have it. This became apparent when I actually tried to put the basket together.
Undeterred and armed with more toilet paper rolls, I made a second attempt. I figured maybe I chose the wrong quadrants to be the "outer" ones, so I did it the other way this time.
Alas, while this one looked like it might work, it sort of turned out like Noah's Ark, except, you know, if Noah's Ark hadn't been sea-worthy at all and all the animals died and we never knew the joy of zebras and platypi.
By this point, I had burned the pad of every finger and managed to get hot glue strings everywhere and a glob of hot glue stuck to one of my fingernails, I feared permanently. So I did what any good crafter would do when faced with the possibility of either complete failure or a hard-won but probably still ugly result after hours of further testing: I gave up and drank wine.
When we're talking Farts & Crafts, I am only successful at one of the above. And it's not crafts.
If you click on the broken image links on the original page it loads the photo in a separate window.
That's always the answer…more wine, lol!

The State of Nevada applied for and received technical assistance through the Justice Center of the Council of State Governments. Receipt of the award triggered a year-long process analyzing Nevada's Juvenile System and developing recommendations for change. That process included convening a team of Nevadans from all branches of government and all corners of the state together with national experts. The final recommendations were then included in one of Governor Sandoval's signature bills for the 2017 Legislative Session, Assembly Bill 472.
The law establishes the Juvenile Justice Oversight Commission (JJOC) and the Advisory Committee to the Commission. Together in partnership with the Division of Child and Family Services and the county probation departments, the Oversight Commission helps oversee and execute the reforms included in the legislation. One of these reforms was the establishment of an evidence-based program resource center, which the JJOC named the Nevada Center for Juvenile Justice Innovation (NCJJI). On October 19, 2018, NCJJI launched its website http://ncjji.ncjj.org/.
NCJJI's website connects juvenile justice professionals and stakeholders to information about effective programs and practices and support for selecting, implementing, and maximizing the effectiveness of programs and practices. As the NCJJI grows, the website will contain descriptions of programs and practices that fit Nevada's agreed upon definition of evidence-based, recorded and live-streamed trainings, and a calendar of upcoming events including in-person training opportunities.
"The Juvenile Justice Oversight Commission represents the very best fruits of collaboration between the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government. One extremely important charge of the JJOC is to stand up the Nevada Center for Juvenile Justice Innovation. Through the center, we can look forward to a "library" of off-the-shelf programs and best practices with which to serve vulnerable kids.
It will be a cost-effective, accessible tool for use throughout the state. This is an exciting time for children and for those who work with them in our system," said Judge Egan Walker, JJOC co-chair.
The NCJJI is led by the National Center for Juvenile Justice, the research arm of the Reno, Nevada based National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ). Founded in 1937, the NCJFCJ is the nation's oldest judicial membership organization and focused on improving the effectiveness of our nation's juvenile and family courts. A leader in continuing education opportunities, research, and policy development in the field of juvenile and family justice, the 2,000-member organization is unique in providing practice-based resources to jurisdictions and communities nationwide. Website users can reach the staff of the NCJJI via phone or email for one-on-one consultation and technical assistance.

ZION STILL REELING AT THE (FINAL) TRUTH IN THE NEW YORK TIMES
January 23, 2019 at 15:15	(Israel, Oppression, Palestine)
Look at THIS post before you continue reading …
We are delighted here at the site that Michelle Alexander's excellent long New York Times column is getting huge attention.
Why Michelle Alexander's 'NY Times' column is having such a huge impact
James North
We are delighted here at the site that Michelle Alexander's excellent long New York Times column is getting huge attention — and we are also a little puzzled. The Times has previously run occasional opinion articles critical of Israel and sympathetic to Palestinians, but none of them has had the reverberating impact of Professor Alexander's January 20 piece. Her article is already clearly a watershed moment, with arguably even more impact on mainstream U.S. opinion than Israel's onslaught last spring against Gaza's Great March of Return, which left more than 150 Palestinians dead and another 5800 wounded by live ammunition.
Israel's Hasbara Central has already recognized the danger. The Israel lobby's usual suspects struck back immediately, calling Alexander's measured article "a rant," with "countless outrages," that even amounts to "a strategic threat" to Israel.
Why has Alexander prompted such a huge reaction? I have some tentative explanations.
* First, Alexander reveals an open secret — that many mainstream American progressives have been afraid to speak out against Israel because they fear losing funding for their other important causes, or they fear being smeared by the pro-Israel forces. Alexander bravely includes herself in this category, hinting that she worried that her pathbreaking research and writing into systemic racial discrimination in America could be jeopardized if she came out decisively for Palestine. Her headline told the story: "Time to Break the Silence About Palestine."
* The U.S. political climate is changing, to be steadily more sympathetic to Palestinians. Young people, Jews and others, no longer uncritically accept the Israel lobby's propaganda. For the first time, two members of the U.S. Congress, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, outspokenly favor the nonviolent program of Boycott Divestment Sanctions (BDS).
* Michelle Alexander is a respected and experienced scholar, who won sufficient renown in her field to be offered a regular New York Times column. (Hasbara Central must be panicking that she will continue to speak out regularly, now that she has broken the ice.)
* We in the alternative press forget how successfully the Times and other mainstream media have protected themselves inside a pro-Israel propaganda fortress. You have to set the occasional pro-Palestine opinion article in the Times alongside the paper's chronically biased news coverage, day after day, year after year. So when Michelle Alexander says straightforwardly that Israel has "adopted some practices reminiscent of apartheid in South Africa and Jim Crow segregation in the United States," her view will come as no surprise to regular visitors to Mondoweiss, but those who read the Times on the 7:17 train down from Westchester into New York City may jump out of their seats.
* That Michelle Alexander is a distinguished African-American academic may also be a factor. Many black Americans have for decades seen certain parallels between their situation and the oppression that Palestinians face, a comparison that is surely giving the Israel lobby nightmares.
* Finally, Alexander's article is extraordinarily eloquent and moving. You expect well-crafted pieces in the Times, but she has written a masterpiece. Here is how she ended: "In this new year, I aim to speak with greater courage and conviction about injustices beyond our borders, particularly those that are funded by our government, and stand in solidarity with struggles for democracy and freedom. My conscience leaves me with no other choice."
Her article will surely appear in eventual histories about the liberation of Palestine, marking a turning point in history.

A new streaming service is heading our way.
In an earnings' call Aug. 8, Disney CEO Bob Iger announced the entertainment giant will be breaking a 2012 arrangement with Netflix to provide new releases exclusively to the streaming service.
Disney will instead be launching its own streaming service exclusively for the company's films and allied programming aimed at kids in 2019. This news came along with Disney's acquisition of BAMtech, Inc. the streaming technology owned by Major League Baseball, for $1.58 Billion. It is this technology that will under gird the new Disney children's streaming service, and also allow for the launch of an ESPN streaming service in early 2018.
How this news impacts the current Disney, Pixar, Lucasfilm, and Marvel movies on Netflix is unclear because every title in the Netflix library from these studios is there through licensing. The licensing may last into next year, it may last until the new Disney service launches: this right now is unclear. It does however mean that films like Star Wars Episode IX (2019) and Captain Marvel (2019) will go straight to the new service.

Philco Films to produce three major Stanley Kubrick projects
By Chris Evans2010-04-22T15:28:00+01:00
Philco Films is set to make three films based on scripts by the late legendary film-maker Stanley Kubrick: Civil War drama Downslope; Scarlett Johansson-starrer Lunatic At Large, and a TV series called God Fearing Man about a renowned bank robber.
Downslope will be a massive $100m project set during the American Civil War following the activities of Mosby's Rangers involving spies and hanging on both sides of the war. Kubrick wrote the script based on a short story by renowned historian Shelby Foote.
"We are approaching A-list directors for the project because it is an A-list script," says Steve Lanning, co-founder of Philco Films alongside longtime Kubrick collaborator Philip Hobbs (Kubrick's son-in-law who also was a producer on Full Metal Jacket). "There are a couple of leading roles which we hope will be taken by A-list actors, but we need the director first."
The plan is to shoot the film next year in Europe because Philco has already had a lot of interested from European financiers in the project and because the original US settings for the drama have changed dramatically, so shooting in Europe could work as a replacement.
With Steven Spielberg and Robert Redford's Lincoln projects currently in development, Lanning was convinced now is a good time to work on a period film.
The second project on their slate is Lunatic At Large, based on a treatment written by pulp writer Jim Thompson, which Kubrick commissioned back in the 1950s, but never made after he was sidetracked by the success of Spartacus.
Sam Rockwell and Scarlett Johansson are already attached to star in the project, which will tell the story of an ex-carnival worker and a barfly who strike up a relationship — although there are suspicions that one of them is an escapee from a mental asylum.
"We are debating whether to make it out of the US or Europe at the moment as there is interest from both sides," Lanning tells Screen. British producer Charles Finch (Ghosts, Mutant Chronicles) and US producer Edward R Pressman (Wall Street) were originally attached to produce the project a few years back, but have since dropped out.
Meanwhile, Philco is due to go into production later this year with God Fearing Man, which will be a $12m TV series about the famous safebreaker Herbert Emerson Wilson who stole $16m from banks in the early 20th century.
Philco are looking for a leading director and cast for the project, which they hope to shoot in Europe, most likely Germany due to the tax breaks. They will also look to work with co-producers from Europe and either Canada or Australia.
British writer Stephen R Clarke, son of renowned sitcom writer Roy Clarke, is adapting the scripts for all three projects.
Pressman and Finch let loose Kubrick's Lunatic
Edward R Pressman's Film Corp in New York and London-based Finch & Partners are teaming up on Lunatic At Large based on an original idea by the late Stanley Kubrick.Nicolas Chartier's Voltage Pictures is selling international rights to the story, set over the course of one night in 1956 as ...
