This has been a journey of highs and lows! On a positive note, I learned so much about healthy eating and importance of taking care of my one and only body properly. This is not temporary for me. This is a true lifestyle change, always striving for better. I’ve learned the proper way to cook our mostly organic healthy food. I’ve learned about products, like storage for food, self care products that are healthier than others. The importance of exercise... Read more »

COVID-19: IMMUNITY AND OUR COMMUNITY
Dear patients and our community,
As you already know, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is very real and it is everyone’s responsibility to help keep our community safe from the rapid spread of Coronavirus. To help slow the spread of this virus, it is now more important than ever to take an abundance of caution to help protect you, your family, our community and our healthcare system.
Because there are many unknowns about Coronavirus and things can change rapidly, we believe using common sense is the best measure to prevent the spread of COVID-19. continue reading
100 Years… And Counting
Would you like to live to be 100? You would be surprised at how many people would answer “no” to that question. Many people are in such poor health that it is a physical and emotional struggle to get through each day, let alone an entire century. It doesn’t have to be that way. Actually, if we are living properly, enjoying the rich quality of life that we are entitled to, we should all be thrilled to live to 100! In fact, the hard part should be figuring out how to squeeze all of our goals and accomplishments into such a relatively short period of time. continue reading
Insomnia & Acupuncture
Do you have trouble getting a good night sleep?
At my clinic in Naples, Florida, Acupuncture & Natural Health Solutions, one of the most common complaints I hear from my patients is that they have difﬁculty sleeping. You hear it all the time. For good health, eat well, exercise and get plenty of rest. What do you do if you are one of the many that cannot sleep or do not feel rested after a night of restless sleep? Many people ﬁnd themselves reaching for pharmaceuticals or over the counter medications to combat the insomnia they are experiencing. Unfortunately, the use of these medications can lead to unwanted side-effects, dependency on the medication or even addiction. The good news is that chronic insomnia can be treated effectively with acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Acupuncture is a side-effect free, non-dependent, natural cure for insomnia. continue reading
During the summer solstice your yang energy reaches its peak. It is important to harness the peak of this yang energy, because as summer shifts into fall yang energy will decline. This great abundance of yang energy will translate throughout your body because during this season you are active and growing.
According to five element theory, during the summer the organ that receives extra energy is the heart. When the seasons change so do the organs we should focus on in the body. You should focus on the heart during summer. Feed the heart heart-nourishing foods and make sure to remain active so the heart receives positive energy. continue reading
Parkinson’s Disease And Traditional Chinese Medicine
From a western medicine perspective, Parkinson’s Disease is one of a group of motor system disorders that are caused by the loss of dopamine producing brain cells. The general symptoms include tremor, slowed motion (bradykinesia) which makes voluntary movements such as walking difficult, loss of automatic movements such as swinging your arms while you walk, and a “frozen” facial feature many times with unblinking eyes.
Associated conditions such as depression, insomnia, urinary issues, constipation and/or sexual issues may also be seen. Western treatment focuses on medication, surgery, and/or physical therapy.
From a Chinese medicine perspective, syndromes in which patients suffer from spontaneous shaking, or from other muscular manifestations such as paralysis or tonic spasm, are thought to be the result of yin deficiency of the kidney and liver leading to generation of “internal wind.” continue reading

Did you know that 86 percent of registered voters check their mailbox at least five times per week? Or that, on average, non-college educated voters receive about half as much mail as college-educated voters do?
A new joint paper by AAPC and the United States Postal Service™ unveils new insights into the behavior and attitudes of Americans when they go to their mailboxes. Elena Neely (USPS), Steve Bassermann (Weber Shandwick), and Sam Hofstetter (KRC Research) discussed broader, non-campaign mail use trends and how campaigns can leverage them during the August 2, 2017 webinar, ‘New Study on Voters and Mail: Insights and Opportunities,’ courtesy of USPS.
Check out their expert tips & takeaways below!
- Direct mail is here to stay is because the ability to reach a specific voter is so important. You have to be direct, persuasive, and targeted when utilizing direct mail.
- At the end of the day the 2016 election produced an increase in direct mail use; proving that direct mail is not “dying.”
- Creativity matters. Anything to get your voter’s attention is vital when implementing direct mail.
- 82% of millennials surveyed by USPS reported political mail being important. The millennial generation does care about mail and they use it to drive social media messages.
- Mail is still the campaign channel with 100% voter reach. Direct mail brings the voter to the message rather than bringing the message to the voter.
USPS has launched a few features for direct mail users including Informed Delivery, Irresistible Mail, and Share Mail. Make sure to take a look!
About Elena: Elena Neely, MBA, CLSSGB, is the National Lead for the US Postal Service political mail outreach efforts. Elena mobilizes a national team of specialists who consult with and support political campaigns, campaign strategists and political alliance mailing partners. She manages USPS’ strategic sponsorships with political associations and coordinates marketing and sales efforts to support the use of political mail. The US Postal Service helps political campaigns identify winning media combinations to deliver the win for their campaigns.
- Most Americans go through their mail every day. This is coined the ”Mail Moment“–the concept that people are constantly inundated with news, but mail feels real.
- Voters find early voting, absentee ballot, and voter registration deadlines most important when receiving political mail.
- Voters want to hear about candidate issues rather than candidate endorsements.
- Americans without a college degree receive about 12 pieces of candidate mail each week. Americans with a college degree receive around double that.
- One of the most important things about mail that has stayed consistent throughout the years is that voters will most likely slow down and actually look at a piece of mail compared to other media. Use this to your advantage, and get your message out there.
About Steve: Steve Bassermann is a former congressional campaign manager and currently holds the position of vice president at Weber Shandwick.
- New businesses should be utilizing direct mail since 73% of Americans tend to agree that they block phone calls and spam, but open direct mail pieces, according to USPS research.
- Direct mail response rates are up 40% in the last 2 years.
- Folks surveyed who are considered the “head of the household” (73%) will look through all of their mail to make sure they are not discarding anything important. This is vastly different than being able to scroll through a newsfeed and only click the links you want to see.
- It is extremely important to share new information about your candidate via direct mail. Americans want to see this, and appreciate discovering the mail they receive each day (63% of household heads to be exact!).
- The bottom line is that campaign mail leads to voters taking action. Inspired direct mail can lead to further research on a candidate and even help a person make a final decision on how to vote on an issue or candidate.
About Sam: Sam Hofstetter is a former campaign pollster and currently holds the position of research manager at KRC Research.

On 24 in February, after months of fruitless exchanges and dialogues, Russia invaded Ukraine and amplified tensions in the region that had come from 930, when a pro-Moscow government was overthrown in the former Soviet republic and in retaliation, President Vladimir Putin annexed the Crimean peninsula and supported separatists in Donetsk and Luhansk, in the Donbas region. .
With the war completing three months (according to analysts, more than Putin expected), Ukraine resists and a scenario is no longer projected in which the country is totally dominated by the Russians and President Volodymyr Zelensky, overthrown and/or killed, but the fighting remains fierce and there is no clear outcome for now.
Gazeta do Povo gathered information about the moment of the conflict and some perspectives for the coming months:
Who is winning the war?
It’s hard to say, because not It is known exactly what Vladimir Putin’s goals were before the inv. sion – the Russian president only cited the goals of “denazifying” and “demilitarizing” Ukraine.
Among Kyiv allies and military analysts, there is consensus that Russia expected a short war and even overthrow the Ukrainian government, which it failed. The retreat in the capital region, from which Russian troops withdrew at the end of March, and the change in discourse, which began to concentrate forces in the east, where Moscow already had the support of separatists from Donetsk and Luhansk, indicate that things did not turn out as Putin had hoped. Proof of this is that it did not sing triumphantly at the Victory Day celebrations on May 9.
“Surely, Russia believed that it could take the cities of Ukraine in a matter of days and the rest of the country after. The fact that they didn’t is emblematic of the arrogance at the heart of Putin’s worldview,” Admiral Tony Radakin, Chief of the UK Defense Staff, declared last week.
However, Ukraine also has little to celebrate. Despite being praised for its resistance to the world’s second-largest military power (with a lot of foreign aid, it’s true), the country lost Mariupol last week, which will allow Russia to establish the dreamed corridor between the breakaway regions of Donbas and Crimea.
This month, the leadership of the pro-Russian civil-military administration of Kherson in southern Ukraine announced plans for the region to be incorporated into Russia. That way, only a very big upheaval on the battlefield will prevent Ukraine from losing territory, a possibility that Zelensky refuted in April.
How many refugees from the war?
According to the United Nations (UN), about 14 million people left their homes in Ukraine since the beginning of the war. Approximately 6 million went to other countries (Poland was the main destination, receiving more than 3.4 million refugees), while 8 million went to other places within the Ukrainian territory itself.
Meanwhile , the return is already significant: the UN reported last week that at least 1.8 million Ukrainians returned to the country, mainly due to the retaking of areas and the departure of Russians in certain regions, such as Kyiv and its surroundings.
How many deaths occurred on both sides?
Because narratives are a fundamental part of war efforts, casualty data is imprecise and varies greatly by the source. The UK Ministry of Defense estimates that more than 15 a thousand Russian and allied soldiers have already died in Ukraine, which would represent something close to the losses. that the Soviet Union suffered throughout its war in Afghanistan, between 1979 and 89. The most recent figure released by Moscow pointed to 1.35 casualties in Russian forces by the end of March.
On the Ukrainian side, the figures are also inaccurate. In April, the United States estimated up to a thousand deaths of Ukrainian military personnel. This Monday (23), the UN reported that 3.930 Ukrainian civilians had lost their lives in the conflict, but the country’s own government estimates that the number is already over 25 a thousand deaths – about
a thousand only in Mariupol, the city most affected by the Russian attacks.
How will the economy of both countries be?
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) projects that the destruction and economic consequences of the war will cause a 35% drop in GDP Ukraine’s Gross Domestic (GDP) at 2022.
For Russia, the projected retraction is 8.5%, mainly due to the strong economic sanctions imposed by the West and allies.
The result, however, could be much worse – according to a recent report by the European Commission, “thanks to high prices and strong demand for commodities, the projection is that revenues from exports will be strong, increasing Russia’s current surplus to 14% of GDP in 2022”, which “will allow the government to sustain the ruble, the vulnerable groups and the economy, limiting the decline in real GDP to 10, 4% in
How is the expansion of NATO and the EU?
The expansion of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the European Union to the east was Putin’s avowed pre-war preoccupation. Ukraine has for the time given up its intention to apply to join the Western military alliance, but has asked to join the EU days after the start of the conflict – as have Moldova and Georgia.
However, this month, Ukraine French President and current President of the Council of the European Union, Emmanuel Macron, threw a bucket of cold water on the plans of the three former Soviet republics, saying that the process of joining the bloc could take decades. Instead, he suggested that these countries could become members of a new “European political community”, which would bring together nations that share the liberal values of the EU.
“The European Union, given its of integration and ambition, cannot be the only way to structure the European continent in the short term”, claimed Macron.
As for NATO, Finland and Sweden, which admitted concerns after the Russian invasion of Ukraine , gave up decades of military neutrality and applied last week to join the alliance.
The organization’s secretary general, Jens Stoltenberg, signaled that the entry process of the two Nordic countries must be quick and that hopes to overcome Turkish resistance – Ankara said it intended to bar Swedish and Finnish accessions, on the grounds that the two candidate nations would harbor Kurdish terrorists.

Thunderbolt™ Cable Application Using CCG3 Devices
How are CCG3 devices used in a Thunderbolt Cable Applications?
Figure 1 shows the application diagram of a Thunderbolt cable using CCG3 devices. The CCG3 device is used in conjunction with the Clock Data Recovery chip (shown as “CDR” block in Figure 1 of this active cable design.
How does a CCG3 device work?
The CC and VCONN signals from the Type-C plug are connected to the CC1 and VCONN pins of the CCG3 device at both ends of the cable. The SSTX and SSRX signals are routed from one end of the plug to the other end via CDR devices. Each end of the cable has a CDR to retime and recondition the signals. While in Thunderbolt Alternate Mode, the LSTX and LSRX signals from the Thunderbolt node are connected to the SBU1 and SBU2 lines of the Type-C plug. The CCG3 device manages the flow of LSTX and LSRX traffic between the two port partners and the CDR devices. The DP and DM lines pass through the cable for transmitting/receiving USB2.0 data.

We thought we had seen the last of the bum bag in the '90s but apparently they're on their way back in style thanks to one fashionista: Rihanna!
The style maven attended the Chanel Fall/Winter 2014 collection during Paris Fashion Week on Tuesday wearing head-to-toe Chanel which included a light purple quilted bum bag which was slung around her waist.
The two-piece ensemble gave the illusion of an hourglass figure with an exaggerated small waist and a boxy top with stiff cap sleeves, a small v-neckline and a collar.
Keeping in with the '90s theme, Drake's maybe girlfriend accessorized with matching Chanel sneakers, cat-eye sunnies and a huge bangle with oversized pearls.
But the "Stay" singer wasn't the only celeb to wear the oddly-shaped ensemble; "Pride and Prejudice" actress Keira Knightley wore a similar outfit in black and white.
Celebs weren't just sitting in the front row either: "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star Kendall Jenner walked the runway in front of the fashion elite and she looked damn fine doing so.

This is a really superb house to rent.
I took my parents for a 4 night stay which we were lucky to secure at relatively short notice.
Excellent communication pre stay with a comprehensive description in email plus lots of info at the house.
Location was outstanding at top of hill, sublime views. Master bedroom views are amazing!!! Love the sheep! Short walk down to Main St (steep at the last bit for the infirm but my parents managed it) for a waterfront walk, supermarket and restaurants.
Well equipped and very clean.
Would be a great base for an extended stay. Some good walks easily accessible from the house- the Coastal to Aros Park and waterfall diversion was really good.
Heat/light/wifi/hot water all great.

A Good Problem to Have, I Guess
– I love to stroll through my tomatoes. I look at the developing fruit, pluck of suckers, give the tops a twist around the trellis line if they need it. I even don’t mind weeding there. But I have a growing concern that some are getting too tall, especially the vines with only one head. The picture to the right was taken last night. That top bar is 8 feet, so some of my tomatoes are easily over 7 feet tall. It is not even the middle of June!
What do I do when I can’t reach the tops? When the vines reach the tops? Drop the trellis line down and add more to the line? I think that will have to be my option. I have seen a similar solution to cucumbers, which fruit from the bottom up – if they are too tall for the trellis, drop the top and let the bottom spent vines lay on the ground.
Herbs Among the Vines
Growing herbs is not new to me, but I haven’t quite figured out the best conditions for growing them. In other words, I haven’t done enough research and reading. I have noticed, my parsley and cilantro do not like the heat. My dill and basil are doing ok, but they seem to want to bolt quicker in the heat. I am trying to stay on sowing seeds every two weeks or so. One thing I did was to sow herbs between the trellis structures of my pole beans, cucumbers, and tomatoes. And they seem to be doing just great, so this is something I am going to continue to practice.

Most helpful positive review

An interesting and refreshing insight
on 7 April 2014
One of the most disappointing books I've read is Laurie Lee's "I can't stay long". It's full of platitudes and home truths, written as the perspective of an old man (who'd just turned sixty): unworthy of the vigour and sparkle of his earlier books. Penelope Lively writes as someone twenty years older, so I was worried that it might be introspective philosophising. And it does include some of that. I had to reach for the dictionary on various occasions, such as when I was told that, "we are all solipsistic" and when the author referred to the "parabola between youth and age". But whatever Dame Penelope is, she is not homespun. And if her prose is sometimes fairly challenging, she is also thought provoking and raises many points that I, as a sixty nine year old, can identify with. She ponders when old age begins and she also gives us some gems: "the poor are always with us and now the old are too". And statistics: by 2030 there will be four million people over eighty in the UK; and whilst in 1961 there were just 592 people over a hundred, by 2060 there will be 455,000. "Consider these figures and gasp".
The book is divided into discrete chapters. After musing on old age, the author turns to Life and Times. This is not so much an autobiography (although there is a degree of this) as a look at important events in her lifetime (Suez, the Cuba crisis and the Cold War, for example). I find it refreshing that she remains in London and needs to keep in touch with events, rather than retreat to a make-believe world in "the country". She says that she is not at heart a city dweller, "but it makes every sense". And it is also refreshing that she maintains her balanced liberal beliefs, for example welcoming multi-culturalism as opposed to the grey monochrome she encountered on arrival from Egypt nearly seventy years ago. I also found myself very much in tune with her observations on English society, not least the odious class system.
The chapter on Memory was rather heavy going, though I agree with her contention about the teaching of history and could also identify with "the miasma of gloom" of a "dire" single sex boarding school.
As for the chapter on Reading and Writing, well a parallel might be useful. I once read an interview with Mike Atherton, then the English cricket captain (and a fellow Oxbridge History graduate, like Penelope Lively). He was fairly taciturn on cricket, but when it came to the books he read, he came to life. I could have talked books with him far more easily than cricket. But in the case of Dame Penelope, she was a bit high powered for me. I hadn't heard of all the writers she likes, and had only read two (William Golding and Elizabeth Bowen). But I was pleased to see that whilst seeming to prefer books, she was relatively open-minded about Kindle: "I get bored by the exclusive defence of either paper or screen". And she values the Internet.
Finally, we come across "Six Things": objects important to her. I noticed that one of these was a (New Testament) Jerusalem Bible. Although I'm an Anglican, I was pleased that she's a Bible-reading agnostic. Not for her the smug sophistry of the trendy "new atheists". Altogether, a very balanced person.

One of my favorite way to take my frustration out on failed warm glass projects is to turn the project into frit. The project cracked in the kiln? Oops. "You're frit now, baby!"
Low on funds? You can break glass bottles and jars into frit and then use the frit to fuse or cast the glass.
My favorite technique of making frit requires a hammer and something to catch the small pieces. Very basic. Very therapeutic. I use a box constructed of wood to make frit. After cleaning the glass, I put the glass into a plastic bag to keep the glass clean. I place the glass into the wood box and then hit the glass with an old, heavy sledge hammer until the glass is the size frit I want.
|Frit in Jars|
Making your own frit from failed projects is great therapy, as well as being a great way to reuse glass for kiln formed projects.

Apple CEO Tim Cook on Tuesday said the Apple Watch will launch this April. During its earnings call on Tuesday—where Apple said it sold an unfathomable number of iPhones—Cook casually mentioned the company’s will be out in a few months, though an exact date wasn’t revealed. I would imagine it’ll hit on a Friday during the second half of the month, which means it could either be April 17 or April 24. That gives you three months to save; pricing starts at $349.
Last we heard Apple was going to release the Apple Watch in March, but turns out those reports were false. Cook didn’t reveal many more details about the device; potential buyers will be very interested to hear about battery, but official estimations haven’t been released yet. Reports have said it’ll be like every other smartphone out there, which is to say it’ll get you through a normal day’s use before needing charging at night.
Announced back in September, the Apple Watch is the company’s first entry into the wearable market, and a hugely anticipated piece of technology. Smartwatches thus far have been good—not great—which is why people are waiting to see if Apple’s device manages to change the wearable space. From what we’ve seen, it doesn’t seem particularly extraordinary, though we have still yet to play with one.
Don’t know what the Apple Watch is all about? You can get caught up here. As soon as a final date is revealed we’ll be sure to let you guys know. Because Apple has yet to commit to a date, there’s still a slim chance it could get pushed back even further, but I think Cook decided to mention it today to put everyone on notice.


Title: Classification and Analysis of Web Multimedia Data using Principal Component Analysis

Over the web, the size of multimedia data is increasing in a rapid way. Different types of web multimedia data are used by the web users for different applications. These multimedia data belongs to different categories of domains such as Entertainment, Sports, News and Discussion, Music etc. An automatic classification/prediction of web multimedia data without knowing the content is a challenging and complex research aspect. This paper proposes two approaches to classify web multimedia data viz., classification of web multimedia using dimension reduction technique and classification of multimedia data without reducing the dimensions. To reduce the dimension of the web multimedia metadata, we adopt Principal Component Analysis (PCA) technique to reduce the data dimensions (attributes). The proposed PCA technique involves orthogonal transformation of multimedia metadata values, construction of covariance matrix and computation of Eigen values to reduce the dimensions. The reduced and non-reduced multimedia data are classified separately using DT and KNN classifiers. The classification results of reduced and non-reduced dimensions of multimedia data are analyzed, compared and as a task of KDD.

Lust is a dangerous thing. Just ask ANTHM, whose desire for a certain woman gets him locked up and (figuratively?) disemboweled on the Nat Price-directed video accompaniment to his latest single. Despite the grisly visuals, the song itself is decidedly upbeat, with French Soler‘s Demons instrumental banging in the background as the NYC emcee delivers his morbidly infatuated bars. While you wait for the continuation of the story (the video ends on a perplexing cliffhanger), you can click here to take a listen to ANTHM’s Joy & Pain EP, released last week and available via our mixtape page.

In this statement AMP has also acknowledged the good progress they have made but that they have more to do in the transformation of their culture, and we wholeheartedly agree.
Although AMP has had a tough year with varied financial results, they have noted they are not able to pay bonuses or salary increases at the same levels as in the past for most employees.
That said, AMP recognise they have a legal obligation to some employees who are covered by the Union negotiated EBA’s and will receive the following:
• AXA EBA – employees covered by this agreement may be eligible for a 2.5% fixed pay increase, subject to conditions.
• AMP-GIO EBA – employees under the AMP/GIO agreement who have not received a fixed pay increase in the prior 23 months may be eligible for an increase, subject to conditions.
The amount of the increase is set under specific terms in the EA.
• AMP-GIO EBA – all eligible employees who achieve their agreed performance outcomes will receive a bonus payment.
This is a huge win for all those covered by these EBA’s and a demonstration of the strength of AMP Union membership.
Francesco De Ferrari, Chief Executive Officer is holding a live event this afternoon and answering employees’ questions and we encourage members to attend.
AMP have also given an indication that the sale of AMP to Ares has halted. Ares do not intend to pursue their proposal to buy the whole company. However, AMP continue to engage constructively with Ares in relation to AMP Capital and will review their options while continuing to explore partnership options.
The union will also keep a close watch on this update and will remain in close contact with AMP as discussions continue.

If you have a pet sugar glider, you might be wondering, “Can sugar gliders eat vanilla yogurt?” You should consider several factors, including the nutritional value, health benefits, and risks associated with this treat. Also, keep in mind that your pet is still in need of a balanced diet, so a treat should be only a small part of its diet.
Sugar gliders love yogurt! Not only is it healthy for them, it also provides behavioral enrichment. Not only is it good for their teeth, but it also helps them form a stronger bond with their owners. One of the most popular yogurt treats for sugar gliders are Yogurt Drops. These sweet treats are made with nonfat yogurt.
Vanilla yogurt is a healthy treat for your sugar gliders and is a great source of protein. Sugar gliders also enjoy a variety of fruits and vegetables. However, they tend to prefer fresh fruits and vegetables.
Using vanilla yogurt as a sugar glider food is a great way to provide your sugar glider with the vitamins and minerals they need to grow and stay healthy. Instead of commercially prepared food, you can make your own food mixture that is full of fruits, vegetables, proteins, and fibers. Using ice cube trays to store the mixture will allow you to quickly thaw it, so your sugar glider can enjoy its delicious treat at any time.
Since sugar gliders are omnivores, they don’t need much sugar. Instead, they feed on bugs, small animals, and plants. They do not require a high amount of sugar, so they will not become obese or sick from consuming too much yogurt. This is also a great way to increase their water intake, so they stay properly hydrated.
While sugar gliders are omnivores, their diets in captivity must be well-balanced. Without a balanced diet, they may develop health problems, resulting in dental problems, strong musky odor, or even premature death. Commercial sugar glider food is simply not enough to provide the nutrients that sugar gliders need. Fortunately, there are many foods you can offer to your sugar glider that are much healthier for them.
Sugar gliders can safely eat yogurt. It contains bacteria that digest lactose, and if you feed your glider plain, unsweetened yogurt, it should have no negative effects. However, if your sugar glider is allergic to dairy products, you may want to avoid giving it yogurt.
Sugar gliders need a wide variety of healthy treats for their nutritional needs. In order to make sure their bodies are well-nourished, a good diet should consist of various vegetables and fruits. These treats should be moderately sweet. Some of the healthy treats available in the market are natural and organic, while others contain artificial sweeteners.
Some fruits and vegetables can be diced or blended and fed to the sugar gliders. These foods should be blended to a smooth texture so that they can ingest them easily. For example, papaya can be diced or cut into small pieces. Other fruits and vegetables, such as bananas and strawberries, should be cut into coins. One tablespoon of these treats is recommended per glider.
There are several alternatives to vanilla yogurt for sugar gliders. The first is honey, which is a natural source of sugar. Another alternative is fruit and vegetables, which are also high in sugar. But it’s important to be careful when choosing a food. Sugar gliders can develop a sensitivity to sugar, and a diet that is too high in sugar can lead to problems.
Another healthy alternative to vanilla yogurt for sugar gliders is strawberry applesauce, which is lighter than other jams and has a watery texture. Just be sure to limit the amount of strawberry applesauce as sugar gliders are lactose intolerant and should only be fed in small amounts.

THE ELECTIONS: NORTHEAST
THE ELECTIONS: NORTHEAST; NEW JERSEY - BUSH
Published: November 10, 1988
Garden State voters have long favored Republican Presidential candidates and the state, as expected, went for Mr. Bush. But they split their tickets to re-elect Senator Frank R. Lautenberg, a Democrat, despite a strong challenge by Pete Dawkins.
Despite a last-minute blitz, Mr. Dukakis could not overcome the Vice President's assault on his environmental record. Mr. Lautenberg, on the other hand, succeeded in part by labeling Mr. Dawson as an outside opportunist who courted voters out of ambition.
New Jersey has kept a Democratic Legislature for more than three decades and sent many Democrats to the Senate. But apart from 1960 and 1964, it has voted Republican for President since 1952.
In House races, incumbents retained control of the delegation. The state had seven Democrats, six Republicans and one vacancy because of the death of James J. Howard, a Democrat.
In the hotly contested race to fill that seat, State Senator Frank J. Pallone Jr., a Democrat, beat Joseph Azzolina, who hoped Mr. Bush's popularity would help his campaign. In the Newark area, Donald M. Payne, a Democrat, defeated Michael Webb, a Republican for the seat of Representative Peter W. Rodino Jr., a Democrat who is retiring.
President: With 99% of precincts reporting, Bush 1,699,634 (57%), Dukakis 1,275,063 (43%).
Senate: With 99% of precincts reporting, Lautenberg 1,552,805 (54%), Dawkins


Having enough storage is crucial in the industrial sector to prevent hazards and store your equipment efficiently. The one thing you don’t want to have to do is to pile up your equipment on each other because you don’t have enough storage space. This can be a big hazard and eventually while you’re trying to grab one item, the rest will probably fall and injure you.
The best solution for storage in the industrial sector is metal storage cabinets, as they are tough and will let you store enough equipment. Industrial storage is the best solution if you’re looking for something tough and secure. These cabinets will let you store your equipment safely and securely without having to worry about it getting stolen or lost.
Often storage will take up more space than needed leaving you with a smaller workspace and a larger storage area instead. To make better use of your space, customized metal storage cabinets will let you use up that space efficiently by making sure they are the right fit and size for your work. They also let you be organized by choosing how you want to store your equipment by using shelves only or shelves and compartments. To make it easier to know when you find your equipment, you can even put labels to guide you.
At Premiere Engineering, we produce fully customized metal storage cabinets for their storage solutions. If you want to find out more, contact us today.

File Under: Creating and Selling Your Merchandise, Creating and Maintaining Your Persona
Graphics are an important and inevitable part of a musician's life. They are part of your persona, merch (t-shirts especially), marketing, social media, and more. To generate all of this material, you will need to either have a graphic artist on your team or handle all of the graphics yourself.
But even if you hire someone, you need to clearly outline what you want them to do and evaluate their work. There are a few graphic arts concepts that every musician needs to understand. One of the better references for understanding graphics is The Non-Designer's Design Book by Robin Williams (not the comedian). But we can boil it down to four key concepts:
1. The Rule of Thirds.
A big part about cropping a photo or making a good poster is to know where to align the important elements of an image. This is simple to do: if you imagine a tic-tac-toe board superimposed on the image, see if the parts that you want to emphasize are on the lines and especially in the places where they cross. For example, the title of your work should be on one of the horizontal lines (usually the bottom.) Many modern graphics apps superimpose these lines to help you align and crop your images.

2. The Difference Between CMYK vs. RGB.
The colors on your computer screen use a Red-Green-Blue (RGB) scheme which produces colors backlit by a light source. If you're making graphics that will only be used on the web or device, using this scheme to create your graphic is fine. However, if you take an RGB image and print it, the colors may not match what they look like on screen. This can be a problem when printing them on merch (for example, t-shirts that you sell at your show) since you want it to look exactly like it does online. To ensure your online and offline graphics look the same, use a Cyan-Magenta-Yellow-Black (CMYK) color scheme. CMYK is an older standard based on ink-printing. Though it's more limited in color choices, the colors you pick can be exactly reproduced in physical printings. The key is to match the CMYK value with the RGB value. You can do that by choosing Pantone colors which allow printers and merchandise manufacturers easy matching.
3. Color Palettes and Pantone Colors.
You need to constantly find colors that not only look good, but work well with each other. A key to this is a color palette, which is a pre-set group of colors that are harmonious. This palette is not only a list of colors, it includes their RGB and CMYK values so that you can represent them immediately and accurately with graphics programs. It’s best to use Pantone colors if you can, because merchandise manufacturers can easily make merch using those values as it has become a standard in the industry.
4. Advancing and Receding Colors.
Warm and bright colors give the illusion of being closer in the composition, cool and dull colors seem further away. Use this effect to your advantage: when you want to emphasize something so it "pops" out at the person viewing the image, use advancing colors. When you want to de-emphasize elements of your graphics, use receding colors. This technique is used all around the web and mobile: the submit or buy button is always an advancing color that jumps at you; while the cancel button is usually a receding color like a gray. You’ll often find yourself drawn to the buttons that use advancing colors almost by instinct. So if you want your poster to grab a person's attention that you'll be playing your show this Friday only, color that part with advancing colors. See this page for more info on the science of color.
These basic concepts will be useful for you as you work with the graphical elements of your music. As you continue to use them, you’ll find that they become second nature and you will apply these concepts to everything that you make.

If going to the dentist gives you anxiety, you are not alone! For patients who are ten years old and over, we provide dental sedation options to help you relax during your visit.
Oral sedation is a great choice. It can provide mild to moderate sedation, depending on the type of medication and the given dose.
What to Expect
Oral sedation includes a pill, which should be taken thirty to sixty minutes before the procedure. You will still be awake and calm during the procedure, but you may become drowsy. For a larger dose, what is considered moderate sedation, you may even fall asleep during the procedure.
This sedation method is optimal for patients who prefer not to receive medication via injection, as in IV sedation. Oral sedation doesn’t require any special equipment or techniques, and is arguably the simplest form of sedation available.
IV sedation is a technique that will make your dental visits more comfortable and stress-free. It’s used to relax you without putting you to sleep: you remain conscious and able to talk and walk on your own. Afterwards, most patients feel as if they were asleep during the procedure.
What to Expect
The night before your appointment you take a mild pill that allows you to sleep well and be rested and relaxed the next day. An hour before your appointment, you will take a second pill and, to ensure maximum comfort, we perform IV sedation right before your procedure.
With IV sedation, you will be able to understand and respond to requests from your dental team. IV sedation is so effective that most patients reduce the number of visits required to complete their dentistry, as we are able to address more than one concern during your visit.
This sedation method is particularly appropriate for patients who are apprehensive about dental care, and for our teenage patients who are planning to have their wisdom teeth removed.
Remember, you can receive IV sedation for any type of dental work, even a simple cleaning!
Do You Need Oral & IV Sedation Dentistry in Fremont?
We work with each of our patients to discuss the details of your treatment and any possible alternatives. To schedule an appointment, contact us at (510) 790-0590!

'He's not my type of defender': Virgil van Dijk joins in Liverpool team-mate Dejan Lovren's spat with Sergio Ramos
- Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos is not Virgil van Dijk's 'type of central defender'
- The Liverpool centre back backed up Dejan Lovren's criticism of Ramos
- Lovren has made his opinion of Ramos clear since the Champions League final
- Mohamed Salah was forced off with a shoulder injury after a Ramos challenge
Liverpool felt aggrieved and that Ramos' actions were deliberate, something Lovren is still smarting about.
Virgil van Dijk has joined Liverpool team-mate Dejan Lovren's ongoing spat with Sergio Ramos
Lovren (left) has been critical of Ramos (right) ever since he injured Liverpool star Mo Salah
The Real Madrid skipper injured Salah's shoulder during the Champions League final
He was critical of Ramos prior to Croatia's Nations League game with Spain on Thursday night and carried on the insults after the beaten World Cup finalist's dramatic 3-2 victory.
'Haha! 3-2! Go ahead and talk now buddy. Buddy! They are a bunch of p******,' Lovren said on a live Instagram story, before adding that he 'elbowed him good' in Croatian.'
Now Van Dijk has added further fuel to the flames by backing up Lovren's assertion that Raphael Varane is on a different level to his centre back partner at Real.
'He is a great player and I respect what he has achieved but he is not the best, he is not my type of central defender,' Van Dijk told De Telegraaf.
'Ramos' team-mate at Real Madrid, Raphael Varane is my favourite. He is an excellent defender and has already won a lot.'
Lovren claimed Ramos is overrated last month and continued the barbs on Thursday night
The defender went on Instagram after Croatia beat Spain 3-2 saying he 'elbowed him good'
Van Dijk has agreed with Lovren's opinion that Raphael Varane is a better player than Ramos
Van Dijk insisted he did not know if the challenge on Salah was deliberate, but his suggestion that Real's game-plan altered immediately after he was taken off speaks volumes.
'I do not know if it was deliberate but mentally something changed when Salah came off,' the Dutch defender added.
'Suddenly, Marcelo, [Karim] Benzema and [Cristiano] Ronaldo all appeared at Trent and released the entire right side. With Salah they never dared to do that.
'The match could have been different. I sometimes think about the match but I hope to be in the final again and on the right side of the score.'

2016 Toyota Avalon Limited - New 4,700 miles.
When accelerating from a stop or slow roll, vehicle hesitates 1-3 seconds, when slightly stepping on gas to go. This hesitation has happened at least 1/2 dozen times, and has put driver and occupants in harms way. Took it to dealer, but they were unable to reproduce issue, and thus could not resolve the problem. Dealer said, they had tested it diagnostically and by driving vehicle. Dealer had no answer for the problem. Dealer said if it happens again, bring it back in for further testing. Am thinking I soon could be calling the dealer from the hospital, or from 6ft under ground. (BTW, it's been in the high 90's temperature wise; I read online that it could possibly be related to a heat build up under the hood...Mentioned it to the dealer, but they didn't try to simulate the hot conditions. Any suggestions?
I can't turn the ignition switch or roll the windows up do to the the security fail switch. Help me please?
I got a big problem and I got to handle this soon as possible.
97 Toyota Avalon sways left and rich when driving. The car fishtails and spins out.bSeems trailing arm bushing needs to be replaced?
I bought new trailing arm but how to uninstall old one and install new trailing arm?
My cig lighter stopped working. I noticed it when I tried to charge my cell phone.
Recently I replace my car battery however a couple months later it went dead my roadside service said that it was my alternator took it to the shop. shop said that my alternator was fine and couldn't find a problem. A couple weeks later my car went dead again. Roadside came back out again and said that the cables connected to my battery wasn't tight enough. After tightening them again, they worked fine for a couple of days but every couple of days it comes loose and the car dies again. This last time I tighten it again but when starting my car the gauges didn't work, the speed, the gas or the dashboard monitor just did not work however the lighting in the gauges does work and my radio and all other lights do work.
They are two , one on top and the other on bottom
had compressor clutch replaced still not blowing cold air. fro past few months a/c dash light would blink but I would push the button--turn it off and then push again to turn it back on and it would work fine. but just this past week that trick doesn't work anymore. tried a new MC a/c relay fuse and that didn't work. mechanic says he replaced the compressor unit because clutch bolt was stripped and not engaging. still didn't solve my issue. what next/ something electrical still?
my mpg dropped from 30+ to 22mpg
Mechanic said the engine was locked and it takes 2600 to replace the new engine. What will the price for replacing it?
The engine did not overheat. It just stopped and wont crank. May be sludge build up, but it dI'd not overheat. How can I tell if engine is fried?
It's 2 weeks old and I never had so much water come from a car after driving it.
It's been very hot in Florida, but I only went a short distance this evening, 5miles, round trip.
Other times, it's as bad, with daytime driving of about 30 miles, round trip..

This post features Risto Mikkonen; a look at a few of his puukko and a WIP on how to stitch a tuppi, or sheath using the puskusauma style. This method of stitching makes for a low profile and an attractive seam.
Thank you very much to Risto Mikkonen and to Juha Nikki for translating Mr. Mikkonen’s text. Risto Mikkonen puukkos are available at lamnia.fi
“When I was working as a sales manager for a big Finnish company, I didn’t have time nor possibility to do handcrafting. When I retired, at the end of the 90s, my interest in puukko making was on the rise. This also was because my older brother, Esko Mikkonen, was a smith and among other things he crafted puukkos. In summer 2000 I took my first try at puukko making at my brothers smithy. I made my first puukko there.
A few years back my wife and I bought a small farm in Laitila, a village north of Turku. Then I built a small workshop in the old barn where I first made some woodturning with a lathe, but after trying knife making I was more excited by it. I made a liquid propane forge, got an anvil, necessary tools and then started practicing. I took one puukko class, but that wasn’t exactly motivating as we made puukkos from ready forged blades and traditional forging was missing.
I felt making puukkos was my thing, so I went really deep into it. My brother was a lot of help: we went through many phone conversations almost daily and many times I visited his smithy for some practicing. Due to strong determination I achieved a professional education as puukkoseppä in Savonlinna school in 2003. That same year I was invited to Vakka-Suomen folk school to teach puukko making and I’m actually still working there. In my lessons I try to emphasize the tradition of the Finnish puukko and its making, but to be honest some amount of “modern time” has come in, in form of machinery. Still, we start making the blade by hand forging. During 12 years of teaching some from the hundreds of students I had, have become good smiths and had won awards in Finnish competitions, even first places.
In my courses blades are primarily forged from carbon steel, which I sometimes use too, though I’ve mainly shifted to stainless steels such as Niolox and RWL-34, both representing the best in wear resistance. Also their heat treatment is demanding and interesting. As handle materials I have moved more and more, partly due to customers’ requests, to birch bark, which is very pleasant in hand as it’s warm and grippy.
I do the sheaths with traditional stitching which takes a lot of attention and care and is much slower than vastasauma. This is the conventional stitching used in puukko making: they put the leather around the insert and the knife, close the leather so that its edge-to-edge and then stich the leather. So the stitching is about 2-3mm high and it takes 15-20 minutes all in all.
I use the puskusauma, made without the knife or the insert inside. I measure carefully the dimensions of knife and insert and then do the stitching. This stitching is only about 1 mm high and more eye pleasing.
In 2004 began an interesting 10 year period in my life when I was chosen as a secretary and treasurer in the Finnish knife makers guild, the Finnish Puukko Association. I was the secretary for 10 years and I’ll be treasurer until spring 2016. The time as a secretary was very much giving. I got to know Finnish and other Nordic knife makers, even the best of them, and learned so many new techniques from the conversations with them. So much giving has also been being the jury secretary during puukko making SM competitions. A couple of times it has been interesting to evaluate and guide soon-to-become puukkoseppä final works and master puukkoseppä final works.
Nowadays teaching and making custom order puukkos for my own firm is taking most of my time. A good and necessary contrast to this lonely work is classical music. I go to concerts in Turku philharmonic every other week. Music takes me away from puukkos and everyday life.”
WIP: Puskusauma style tuppi
My attraction to the beautiful and stylish butt seam in a knife sheath has become noticed among knife smiths, and several requests have come in for written instructions complete with photos and associated captions. It’s worth mentioning at this stage, that the instructions I’m about to present aren’t the only way to make a butt seam. For example, Erik Nylund’s book “Korupuukko” mentions another style, chiefly originating from Sweden.
Making a butt seam requires great accuracy and patience. It is slower to make than the ordinary plain seam, but a good end result will reward the maker.
For making a butt seam you’ll need two needles, thread, beeswax, a puukko knife and the insert for the sheath, e.g. a Stanley or a craft knife, a piece of leather, a stitch marker, awl or a miniature drill, a pencil and some squared paper.
Combine the insert and puukko and attach a piece of masking tape along the entire length of the knife and insert. Draw a horizontal line across the top of the paper, which will be equal to the top line of the sheath. Draw a vertical line in the middle of the paper and make a scale for the measurements at every other square, and number it.
Define/mark the top edge of the sheath into the puukko, which you’ll then align with the horizontal line on the paper. Then copy the scale with its numbering from the paper to the knife’s masking tape.
From same leather as you intend on using for the sheath, cut an approx. 3 mm wide and 15 cm long strip, which you’ll use to measure at each point of the scale the circumference of the puukko and insert. Mark the circumference into the strip with e.g. a pin.
Measure the circumference and add 3 mm to it. For example, circumference 85mm + 3 mm = 88mm. Divide this figure by 2 and mark the lenghts on either side of the vertical line. DO THE MEASUREMENTS AND MARKINGS ACCURATELY!!!
At the bottom of the pattern about ½ cm from the tip of the insert, draw a horizontal line, which extends 9mm either side of the vertical line. Combine the measured points and draw the pattern, into which you should add extra in the shape of the attaching point for the belt loop, any type you choose (the “ears” at the top of the pattern).
After checking the pattern is symmetrical, cut it out draw the pattern with a pencil onto the top (good) side of the leather.
Cut the leather out accurately along the line with the top of the knife tilted 30-40 degrees outwards. Thin the leather on the reverse side around the belt loop attachment extensions and at the bottom end of the sheath, in order to make it bend more readily. You can also cut the top edge at an angle, unless you want to fold it double. If you do want a fold at the top, you’ll need an extension at the top, which you’ll thin down.
Draw a line with a pencil on the top side of the leather 2.0 – 2.5 mm from the edge, along which line you’ll use the stitch marker to mark the spots for the stitches. The hole will extend to half way of the slanted cut surface or a tiny bit below it, but under no circumstances beyond the edge of the cut surface. With half-tanned leather you can also make the holes such that they don’t extend to the raw layer.
You can make the holes in the traditional manner with an awl, in which case you should make the leather wet. A modern and quick alternative is to drill the holes with a miniature drill or Dremel into dry leather. A dentist’s flame bur is well suited to the job, as long as you sand down some of its roughness from its outside surface. The variations of leather hardness won’t make the job any more difficult when using a Dremel for the holes. The method is excellent for half-tanned leather. When making the holes, you should have a piece of firm foam under the leather.
Stitching the sheath, I use a dacron fly fishing bottom line at the strength of 20 pounds, the length 7 times the length of the sheath. I remove the slipperiness of the thread by treating it with beeswax. A saddler’s round tipped needle to each end of the thread such that at first I put the needle through the thread about 5 cm from the end of the thread, and then thread the end of the line through the eye of the needle. This way the thread won’t slip out of the needle. If the sheath insert isn’t very much wider than the puukko handle, the sewing will start from the bottom end of the sheath. If this is the case, you’ll have to count the holes on either side, so they’ll match at the top end.
After starting the stitching, it is useful to attach the leather into a “sheath stick” in a vice and tie the leather with rubber bands in order to keep the sheath steady and free both of your hands for stitching. It’s good practise to lock each stitch such that you put the thread through the loops formed, one side of the seam from top to bottom and the other side bottom to top. Once stitched to the end, it’s good to backstitch about three stitches and you can cut the threads by burning.
Before putting the puukko and lesta into the sheath, it is imperative to protect the (especially carbon) blade by oiling it and the whole puukko by wrapping it into cling film or a piece of a freezer bag. A freezer bag has less friction than cling film and hence it is easier to get the puukko out of tighter sheaths. You can rub some candle into the insert to reduce friction and then put the puukko and insert into the sheath. Check to get the seam straight, after which you can start forming the sheath with e.g. a bone tool. When the sheath starts to dry, it’ll get lighter in colour, and it’s time to make decorative patterns into the sheath. While drying, it’s useful to keep pressing the leather surface down with a (bone) forming tool, which is when it’ll get a nice even shiny finish.
The free drying time of the sheath is at least 48 hours.
There are several alternatives for belt hangers and loops. If your attachment is like the one on the left or in the middle, it is worth putting a slightly thinned down piece of leather between the leather and the sheath in order to have space left for the hanger attachment.
You can position the seam on either side, front or even twisting around the sheath.
Finished butt seamed sheaths with different belt hangers. The sheaths on left and in the middle have been made with a natural colour leather, the left one has been dyed with a leather dye. The one on the right has been coloured at the tannery.

WOODLAND, CA. (MARCH 28, 2024) – Raley’s and FirstFruits Farms made a generous donation of 22,660 pounds of fresh apples to Yolo Food Bank. This donation was made possible by customers who purchased select apples at Raley’s throughout January and February.
A portion of the apples were distributed on Wednesday, March 27 to the parents dropping their kids off at Riverbank Elementary School in the Bryte and Broderick community in West Sacramento. FirstFruits Farms’ Take a Bite Out of Hunger™ program works with retailers across the nation to feature FirstFruits apples for consumers to purchase and in turn, a percentage of the sales gets donated back in product to their communities – during a time when food prices have continued to rise since 2020. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the cost of farm-level fruits is expected to increase by 4% in 2024, making fresh produce more critical for families in need.
“Raley’s is proud to partner with FirstFruits Farms to provide fresh and delicious apples to individuals throughout Yolo County,” said Chelsea Carbahal, Vice President of Community Impact & Public Affairs, The Raley’s Companies. “This donation will directly impact families, providing them with delicious apples that are both healthy and satisfying.”
FirstFruits Marketing created The Take a Bite out of Hunger™ campaign to help feed the underserved while bringing attention to the problem of food insecurity in the United States. Over 2.8 million pounds of fresh apples have been donated to local food banks in the communities of retailers like Raley’s since the program’s inception in 2010.
“One in seven Americans rely on food pantries and meal service programs to feed themselves and their families. Of that, more than half experience undernourishment from not having access to fresh fruits and vegetables. FirstFruits is proud to partner with retailers like Raley’s to help their communities get one step closer to ending hunger,” said Aimee Peters, Business Development Manager, FirstFruits.
More and more families are turning to food banks to supplement their monthly essential needs. The California Association of Food Banks report over 3 million households in California face food insecurity.
“Thanks to the generosity of Raley’s and FirstFruits Farms, students and families from Riverbank Elementary School will be receiving these delicious apples during a time when grocery runs have become more expensive,” said Karen Baker, Executive Director, Yolo Food Bank. “The donation is so great that Yolo Food Bank will also be adding this healthy produce to our Public Community Food Distributions that occur each month throughout Yolo County.”
Yolo Food Bank will be partnering with United Way to launch a “Community Schools” onsite food pantry and a Student Farmers Market program at Riverbank Elementary School in the months to come, demonstrating the high demand for food resources that exists in this community.

Anna Halprin, a Marin County resident for over fifty years, has won national and international awards in recognition of her prestigious achievements as a dancer and choreographer. Halprin is considered to be one of the most highly esteemed 20th century dancers, whose ranks include celebrities such as Martha Graham, Alvin Ailey and Merce Cunningham. She has received the largest dance award in the country, the Samual H. Scripps/American Dance Festival Award for lifetime achievement.
Since the late 1930s, Halprin has revolutionized her art form and has inspired fellow choreographers to take modern dance to new dimensions. She has been an innovator throughout her career, experimenting with improvisation, with the audience-performer relationship, and with the place of dance in the social and political realms.
In the early 70s, when she was diagnosed with cancer, Halprin’s focus shifted to healing, not only for herself, but for others and for the planet. This concern led her to work with cancer patients, and to create healing rituals for the community. One such ritual, the “Circle the Earth” dance, is performed annually at Easter on Mt. Tamalpais and has been introduced in thirty-six countries throughout the world. Her “Planetary Dance: A Prayer for Peace,” was staged in Berlin at an event commemorating the end of World War II. In 1995, Halprin was invited by Mikhail Gorbachev to present an invocation at the State of the World Forum in California. She published Dance as a Healing Art, as a source of guidance and support for those living with a life threatening illness.
