Awesome news… Barneys New York has remodeled their Men’s 6th floor. Barneys held a re-opening event this past week hosted by New York Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist, along with UNICEF’s David Sable and Barney’s own Mark Lee. The event (which benefited the U.S. fund for UNICEF) featured an eclectic cast of well-dressed editors, athletes, and designers, who mingled, and enjoyed the modernized 6th floor Men’s space.
Henrik looked sharp for his hosting gig, as he was enrobed in a smooth Andrea Campagna patterned sports coat, completed with Zenga grey flannel pants, and black suede shoes. Henrik allowed his chic sports coat to standout pairing it with a subtle black tie, white collared shirt, and a perfectly folded pocket square which added the finishing touches to a flawless combination. Are you a fan of the look? Also check out this brief Q&A interview Esquire Mag’s Nic Screws (a.k.a Lady Esquire) did with Henrik at the event, covering topics such as fashion, tailoring, style in the NHL, and more.

You still aren't sure precisely what kind of yoga might be best for your way of life. Possibilities are, you have actually most likely asked everyone you know who practices yoga. While they may have a few recommendations, they may be bias in their decision making when it comes to which type of yoga you should choose.
Iit is relatively easy to find the right kind of yoga for you. You should try to consider why you are preparing on getting in the yoga way of life.
Many people struggle with attempting to discover the best yoga class for them. Some can spent years jumping from class to class, type to type, or different yoga instructors prior to discovering the best match. You may find yourself drawn to the names of each yoga class, often times motivating and amusing.
It might be valuable if you can find an instructor that will permit you to sit in on each type of class. This will offer you a first-hand view of exactly what would be anticipated of you during your yoga class. For this reason, you need to take care in picking the best type of yoga.
Before we look into the various kinds of classes and what you can expect you need to initially remember that as with any workout program; you must initially consult with your doctor. This is especially real if you have actually any diagnosed health problems that lower your variety of motion.
As soon as you have actually begun to check out the numerous different yoga classes available in your location, you will discover that there is a common denominator among them all. A lot of individuals will find that it can be difficult to reach this location in our own selves without a little assistance.
No one yoga class is going to be best for everyone who practices yoga. Simply like no one yoga prop or work out wear will be ideal for one individual. Try your yoga class on for size, if it does not fit your lifestyle, your schedule, or your medical needs; then you need to probably try to discover something different.
If this is your plan, then discovering a low-impact yoga will be vital for younger kids. We find that there simply isn't adequate time to run from one yoga class to another. Instead discovering one class that will fit as a whole with your group of yoga good friends, or family will assist to keep your schedule fairly un-scathed.
Whether you are looking for a high-impact yoga to help you drop pounds rapidly; or simply attempting to find relief from arthritis, or other persistent pain. There is a yoga that will be the ideal fit for you!
Hatha yoga (of which suggests union) is a term for yoga that utilizes both physical, and breathing workout to soothe the mind. Amongst these types of yoga that have stemmed from Hatha, you will discover Raga, Mantra, and Tantra. It is common for Hatha yoga classes to ask their specialists to follow a certain dietary conservation as well as ethical codes of living.
There are a number of various disciplines that you will find practiced in Hatha yoga. Due to it's appeal, some classes might even teach a combination of numerous different designs of yoga. Many of these hybrid yoga classes (especially those that consist of Hatha yoga) are often times the best for newbie yoga practitioners.
While Hatha yoga has actually increased in popularity within the western world. Ashtanga Viniyasa is one of the most progressively popular kinds of yoga in the last few years. It is a mentally difficult and physical kind of yoga.
Along with Hatha and Ashtanga Viniyasa yoga's you will discover a couple of other choices to pick from. Among which being Sivananda yoga. Which is based around as little as twelve postures. One such posture sequence consists of the sun salutation. Of which concentrates on breathing and meditation. This is among the most well-rounded yoga classes that can be found today. It is particularly ideal for all levels of yoga poses proficiency, ages, and physical capabilities. Making it among the most family friendly types of yoga readily available.
Another popular form of yoga is Viniyoga. Of which is understood for it's individualized touch. Each session of Viniyoga is tailored specifically for the specific practitioner and their needs. These classes can differ from as brief as fifteen minutes to two to three hours. Nevertheless it is among the very best individually yoga training that you can discover. This is specifically wonderful for anyone who may discover it difficult to follow a trainer within a big class. This class is especially well suited for kids and those with medical conditions. Merely because it is so personal, and enables the fitness instructor to keep your body, health, and physical limitations in mind when creating your regimen.
The last kind of yoga that is commonly practiced in the western world is Iyengar. Which is a slower and more accurate ways of practicing yoga. It is without a doubt the most practiced yoga throughout the world (spanning not only in the western world). It plays in essential function in one's physical alignment and posture. This is particularly well matched for those with back-pain or other severe or chronic discomfort. This kind of yoga is also particularly appropriate for elders, as they experiment many different props to help in their posture development.
Remember, as with any new exercise routine that you should always know your very own body's constraint. This will help you to choose the best design of yoga class for you. There is no right or incorrect answer, simply knowing exactly what you can and can not manage is key. Regardless of the class, you must end up being prepared once you have selected the best kind of yoga for you. Your yoga trainer will be able to give you a list of the items you will require, whether it be yoga mats, obstructs, blankets, or other prop. It is best to come prepared!

Veteran actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo has reacted to the sad story of 4-year-old Khloe allegedly raped by a full grown man, Idris Ebiloma, in Abuja. The unfortunate incident reportedly happened on the 22nd of September, 2016.
The culprit, according to reports, has been in Kuje prison since the incident and will be released from Prison this Friday July 5th.
In an open letter to the Commissioner of Police in the Federal Capital Territory, Bala Ciroma, RMD is appealing to the police boss to ensure that the minor gets justice. He pointed out that the rape of a child is one of the heinous crimes anyone can commit.
Before now, celebrity mom, Tonto Dikeh had said she’s bent on fighting for justice for the little girl. Tonto shared evidence that Ebiloma raped the innocent girl while calling on Nigerians to protest and seek justice for the minor at Apo court, Abuja on Friday.
She also stated that the girl’s aunty would be with her and also calling on Nigerians to join her as she protests for life imprisonment for the rapist.
Read his open letter below…
”AN OPEN LETTER TO FCT CP.
Dear CP Bala Ciroma, I am hearing rumours that nearly 3 years ago, in your jurisdiction, a full grown man Mr IDRIS EBILOMA allegedly raped a 4 year old child. All rapes are evil, damaging and unforgivable but the rape of a child?
That in itself is not only the worst form of rape but one of the most heinous crimes anyone can commit but more disheartening than the crime itself is the allegation that the police is frustrating efforts to get this innocent child the justice she so badly deserves.
With the increased spate of insecurity, abuse of personal freedom (especially by SARS) and now rape. The police cannot play ostrich and pretend to be unaware of the mood of the nation. What better time and what better way to prove that the police is indeed our friend by ensuring that the investigation and evidence(s) presented to the court are thorough and an iron clad case made against the offender.
Sir, I have never met you but I hear that you’re a good man and I am going by that assumption which is why I am writing you this open letter, hoping that the power of social media will lead it to you and trusting that you will live up to your reputation and use your noble office to get KHLOE the justice she deserves, that way she grows up having great hopes in our law enforcement and judiciary.
Sir, CP Bala, we are rooting for you to write your name in gold in Nigeria’s history by being the one who made it happen.

Cats are famously known for their love of fish, but can cats eat meatballs? Meatballs are a popular dish enjoyed by many people, and while they may seem like a healthy snack option for your cat, it’s important to take into consideration the ingredients used in the preparation of meatballs before you offer them as a treat. Knowing how to feed your cat safely is an essential part of being a responsible pet owner. In this blog post, we’ll explore whether or not cats can eat meatballs and discuss the potential risks associated with feeding these treats to your feline friend.
Can Cats Eat Meatballs?
The short answer is yes – cats can eat some types of cooked, plain meatballs in moderation as an occasional treat. It’s important that any type of processed food such as a meatball be served without added seasonings or sauces because these condiments could be dangerous for cats given their sensitive digestive systems. Chicken or turkey-based meatballs are best for cats because they contain leaner proteins which won’t upset their stomachs. Additionally, you should make sure that any cooked meats you give your cat are fresh and unprocessed so they don’t contain harmful bacteria that could cause illness in felines such as salmonella or E coli. So long as you follow these guidelines when preparing and feeding your pet cooked meats like chicken or turkey-based meatballs then there shouldn’t be any problems from eating them occasionally.
Risks Associated With Feeding Cats Meat Balls
Although eating small amounts of plain cooked chicken or turkey-based meat balls in moderation is generally safe for cats, there are certain risks associated with offering too much processed foods like this one time meal alternative:
• High fat content – Processed meats tend to have higher levels of saturated fat which can lead to obesity if consumed regularly by felines who wouldn’t normally get exercise from chasing after mice on the farm;
• Allergies – Your pet might develop allergies due to consuming too many fillers found within commercial canned food items including prepared frozen meals;
• Gastrointestinal Upset – Too much rich protein sources along with fatty foods could cause vomiting and/or diarrhea if fed more than once per week over extended periods;
• Nutritional Deficiencies – Eating only manufactured dry kibble will result in nutritional deficiencies due to not getting enough vitamins & minerals needed by all animals (not just felines) on occasion throughout life stages;
• Choking Hazards – Canned wet foods pose greater risk since chunks may break off during consumption leading choking hazards if swallowed whole pieces instead chewed properly first before swallowing whole chunks at once when gulping down liquids quickly (i.e., milk).
In conclusion, it is possible for cats to eat some types of cooked plain chicken/turkey basedmeat balls occasionally and safely provided proper precautions are taken when serving these treats up as partof their diet plan (i..e no additional seasonings/sauces). However ,felines should never consume large amounts oftreats such as pre-packaged biscotti products made specifically designedfor humans since it would likelycontain unhealthy fats & additives detrimental even deadly intheir delicate digestion process system! Therefore always consultyour veterinarian prior introducing anything newinto furry friend’s routine meal plan schedule today!

Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, has explained the reason why he left the opposition Peoples Democratic Party for the ruling All Progressives Congress.
Dogara said he resigned from the PDP because of the alleged failure of governance in Bauchi State where he hails from.
In his letter of resignation addressed to the Bogoro ‘C’ Ward chairman of the PDP, the former House of Representatives Speaker said Governor Bala Mohammed whom he helped into power, had not lived up to expectation.
His letter reads, “I write to intimate you of my decision to resign my membership of the Peoples Democratic Party. This became necessary because the same reasons why we fought hard in 2019 to effect changes in the governance of our dear state are festering now.
“I intend to bring these issues to the front burner once again as the fight to install a decent and egalitarian government in our dear state continues.
“I cannot raise these issues and many more questions without a charge of disloyalty levelled against me if I were to remain a member of the PDP. I cannot also fail to raise these questions now having raised similar ones during the administrations of governors Isa Yuguda and Mohammed A. Abubakar. If I abdicate this responsibility on the altar of partisan loyalty, I will be the most irresponsible and unprincipled politician in Bauchi State.
“Thus, by this letter, I have resigned my membership of the PDP to enable me keep faith with my principle of fighting for good governance in our dear state.”

Frank Frecentese, Citigroup's pointman for hedge funds at its private bank, has left the firm.
It is unclear why Frecentese left the bank, or what his plans are, according to Reuters.
Frecentese was global head of hedge funds at Citi Private Bank. He came to Citi in 2010, when the bank acquired hedge fund platform HedgeForum. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, Frecentese also formerly worked at Morgan Stanley Graystone Research.

Learning a language delays dementia: study
The Sunday Age
Sunday February 20, 2011
WASHINGTON. Speaking more than one language protects the brain against cognitive decline and makes a person better at multi-tasking, researchers say.Being bilingual, or even learning a second language late in life, has been shown to slow the decline of some key brain functions, said Ellen Bialystok of York University in Canada. A study co-authored by Dr Bialystok found that people who spoke more than one language were diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease 4.3 years later and reported the onset of symptoms 5.1 years later than monolingual patients."One of the reasons bilingualism has these powerful mechanisms including protecting against early symptoms of dementia is because it's one way to keep your brain active," Dr Bialystok said. "Every little bit helps."

Co-Chair Marilyn Froggatt’s October, 2020 Newsletter
Contrast in painting and in life
|Contrast – noun
The state of being strikingly different from something else in juxtaposition or close association. “the day began cold and blustery, in contrast to almost two weeks of uninterrupted sunshine”
In an artist’s work, contrast is one of the most important aspects of a painting. Artists work from a value scale that ranks colors on a scale of 1-10. 1 is the lightest color and 10 is the darkest. In the early days of learning my craft, I worked endlessly on trying to learn this important skill. To make things even more complicated, try working on contrast when you are dealing in colors rather than black and white. The background will always be lighter, my teachers would tell me. Is that correct? It depends.
Contrast can emphasize a certain part of a painting. For example, the yellows and oranges of the tree’s fall colors will pop if you superimpose these colors onto a darker, less vibrant background.
People vary in the amount of emotional contrast they are comfortable with. I’m sure you’ve met those who say they see life only in “black and white.” No gray tones; no middle ground. Actually, in artistic terminology, they are seeing things somewhere on a scale of 1-10. To them, everything is either a 1 or a 10. To complicate, everyone sees (interprets) things differently so the scale will never be just a 1 or a 10.
Humans also equate their moods with colors. On the emotional side of things excellent and good news could considered a 1 or on the light side. A loss, or a set back could be anywhere from 5-10, depending on the situation (darker color) What if people asked, how are you, and you answered back, I’m ok, or, pretty good, which sounds just about a value of 5. Nothing stressful is happening. But then some people like a lot of drama in their lives. You know the type. Their world is always in a state of anxiety, variation and change. Also, lots of sad stories. If there is nothing happening they become bored. So is that a 5 or more like a 7 or 8?
Opposites attract. People aren’t attracted to someone just like themselves. You’re the saver in the family and the partner is a spendthrift. That’s called contrasting personalities. At first it can be interesting, but can lead to conflict later on. So maybe contrast is better in paintings than it is in life. But wouldn’t life be dull without the pain and conflict that make us learn all sorts of new things? Figuring out contrast in life is no easier than in a painting.

Arabic rhythms used in belly dancing, have helped me a lot as a belly dancer. You do not need to be able to play drums or be an expert on Arabic or Egyptian rhythms, but understanding the rhythms will help you a lot in creating belly dance choreographies, improvising and also enjoying more dancing in general. The Arabic rhythms used in belly dance are many, I highlight here only some of them, most of which Egyptian, the ones I have come across more often during my years of studying Arabic dance.
Arabic rhythms are a succession of ‘doms’ and ‘taks’. Dom is a bass beat, whereas tak is the treble, a sharper sound; in tablah (a goblet drum also called darbuka or dumbelek in Turkish), for example, the dom is obtained by striking the middle of the skin and the tak by striking the rim of the drum.
Doms are usually more suited for grounded downwards movements, such as hip drops, while taks are better accompanied by hip lifts.
Usually Egyptian rhythms start with a dom, also they have more doms in them than for example Turkish rhythms and require more grounded movements, such as hip drops. Turkish rhythms consist of fewer doms and more taks than Egyptian rhythms and therefore Turkish belly dance has more hip lifts.
Every rhythm, which is a pattern of beats and accent, can then be played at different speeds or tempo, such as, for example, 4/4, 2/4 or 8/4.
There are many baladi rhythms, but the most common is the following:
The Saidi rhythm comes from upper Egypt and is used to perform a martial art dance called Tahteeb and
also for the Arab stallions dance. It is very grounded and its particular sequence of doms and taks make
the dancer’s weight shift quite rapidly. Women belly dancers use this rhythm especially when dancing
with a stick, almost to imitate the martial stance of male dancers. The rhythm goes: Dom-tak, dom-dom tak
This is a fast rhythm, with a gliding feeling, often used by belly dancers to make an entry and it goes:
Dom, tak-tak, dom, tak-tak
This rhytm is used to perform trance dances and it goes: Dom, a-tak-a, dom, a-tak-a
This group of doms and taks can be repeated two or three times and there are also other ways of playing this rhythm, but this is one of the most common.
The farmers of Egypt created Fallahi, which is a fast and repetitive rhythm. It can be played in various ways, but the basic structure is: Dom-tak-tak, dom-tak
This rhythm is used in Turkish and Greek belly dance; it is slow and sensual and it suggests grounded and
circular moves. It goes:
As a reference for studying and understanding a bit more about Arabic Rhythms I recommend Hossam Ramzy’s
CD ‘Rhythms of the Nile’. This is an instructional double CD, where Hossam Ramzy explains the most common Egyptian rhythms that a belly dancer can come across. All the rhythms are clearly explained and played.

MWENEZI, Zimbabwe, Mar 15 (IPS) – From the Masvingo-Beitbridge freeway in Zimbabwe at a spot popularly generally known as Flip-P, the highway passing by Neshuro Township has been degraded, disused, and derelict for over twenty years, with buses avoiding the route. Now donkey-drawn carts that function alongside jalopy autos have grow to be the brand new various for distant travellers round Mwenezi villages.
The scotch carts have grow to be much more widespread in areas round Maranda and Mazetese in Mwenezi as villagers change to them for transport to hospitals and clinics.
Such has grow to be a life for 64-year-old Dennis Masukume of the Mazetese space.
The diabetic affected person is compelled to make use of various technique of transport.
“I board a scotch cart each time I wish to journey to Neshuro hospital for my remedy, which suggests I take advantage of the scotch cart as much as someplace in Gwamatenga the place I then get some personal vehicles that ply the path to Neshuro at nominal fares,” Masukume instructed IPS.
At Tsungirirai Secondary faculty and Vinga Major faculty within the Mwenezi district, the uncommon availability of public transport implies that even lecturers have to deal with scotch carts every time they should journey to Maranda, the place they catch jalopies to the Masvingo-Beitbridge freeway on paydays.
In actual fact, with highway infrastructure badly broken in most rural areas in Zimbabwe, villagers are resorting to olden methods of transport-using scotch carts and strolling to achieve locations the place they will entry important companies like well being care.
The unpaved rural roads have grow to be impassable for buses.
Now, some villagers are capitalizing on the disaster, utilizing their scotch carts to earn a dwelling.
Mwenezi district, situated in Masvingo Province, south of the nation, has grow to be famed for routes plied by scotch carts.
Entrepreneurs have turned to creating straightforward cash from scotch carts. Twenty-four-year-old Clive Nhongo, who resides nearer to Manyuchi dam in Mwenezi, stated the dangerous roads had meant good enterprise for him.
“I’m charging a greenback per passenger each journey I make with my scotch cart taking individuals wherever round my space, and I can let you know I make about 20 USD every day relying on the variety of prospects I get, contemplating that villagers hardly ever journey right here,” Nhongo instructed IPS.
Whereas many villagers fume on the broken roads and lack of a correct fashionable transport system, many, like Nhongo, have one thing to smile about.
“I present the choice transport, and till roads are rehabilitated and buses return on our routes, I would stay in enterprise, which is ok for me,” stated Nhongo.
He (Nhongo) has made wood seats and put in them on his scotch cart to accommodate passengers.
An increasing number of villagers, cornered with transport woes amid derelict roads in villages, are actually having to depend on donkey-drawn scotch carts owned by village entrepreneurs like Nhongo.
Public transport operators like 56-year-old Obed Mhishi, based mostly in Masvingo, Zimbabwe’s oldest city, stated there was no means he may endure damaging his omnibuses plying routes with defunct roads.
Donkey-drawn carts have taken over.
“It’s not solely me shunning the routes those in Mwenezi and its villages, however we’re many transport operators shunning the routes owing to deplorable roads, and sure, scotch cart operators are capitalizing on that to fill the vacuum. That’s enterprise,” Mhishi instructed IPS.
But at the same time as scotch carts operators money in on the rising disaster within the Southern African nation, native authorities have stated donkey-drawn scotch carts have by no means been regularized to ferry individuals wherever in Zimbabwe.
An official working at Mwenezi Rural District Council, who stated he was not approved to talk to the media, stated, “scotch carts don’t pay highway tax, nor have they got insurance coverage for passengers.”
However for extraordinary Zimbabwean villagers in Mwenezi, like 31-year-old Richmore Ndlovhu, with dilapidated roads which have been uncared for for years, the scotch carts have grow to be the one means—insurance coverage or not.
Buses that used to achieve areas like Mazetese now choose to not transcend the Masvingo-Beitbridge freeway, the place scotch carts and some jalopy autos scramble for passengers alighting from buses. These are the passengers desirous to proceed with their journeys into villages.
Zimbabwe’s rural roads in districts like Mwenezi have remained unpaved for greater than 4 many years after gaining independence from colonial rule.
In the meantime, Zimbabwean President Emerson Mnangagwa has been on document affirming that his nation would grow to be a middle-income state by 2025, nearly two years from now.
But for opposition political activists right here, like Elvis Mugari of the Residents Coalition for Change, Mnangagwa could also be constructing castles within the air.
“With corruption in his authorities and the sustained hatred for the opposition, Mnangagwa gained’t obtain a middle-income Zimbabwe. That’s inconceivable,” Mugari instructed IPS.
Batai Chiwawa, a Zimbabwean growth skilled, blamed the regime right here for taking the entire nation backwards.
“Is it not taking the nation to the stone age period when villagers now have to make use of scotch carts as ambulances? Is it not a return to the darkish ages when individuals now should stroll lengthy distances as a result of there is no such thing as a public transport of their villages? That is embarrassing, deeply embarrassing, when individuals begin utilizing scotch carts as public transport on this day and period,” Chiwawa requested when commenting to IPS.

During July and August, the City of Ann Arbor conducted The National Citizen Survey™ (NCS), which is administered as a collaborative effort between the National Research Center Inc. (NRC) and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA). The statistically valid survey captured opinions of a representative sample of 706 residents of the city of Ann Arbor.
According to the NCS Community Livability Report, “Overall quality of community life represents the natural ambience, services and amenities that make for an attractive community.” How residents rate their overall quality of life is an indicator of the overall health of a community. In the case of Ann Arbor, 94 percent rated the city as an “excellent” or “good” place to live.
Other results from the Community Livability Report include:
Almost all survey participants (97 percent) rated Ann Arbor as an excellent or good place to raise children, which outshined national comparisons.
8 in 10 residents indicated they had not reported a crime or been the victim of a crime. Further, respondents who had contact with a member of the Ann Arbor Police Department in the 12 months prior to the survey felt positively about their interaction, with at least three-quarters rating the various aspects related to the conduct of that officer as excellent or good.
As in previous years, Ann Arbor residents identified the economy as one of the top community focus areas for the coming two years.
The cost of living and affordable housing were rated favorably by less than one-fourth of residents. These ratings lagged behind other communities across the nation and decreased since 2015.
In 2018, more respondents were appreciative of the overall ease of travel and ease of walking (which eclipsed ratings awarded nationwide). Bus or transit services were also rated higher in Ann Arbor than elsewhere.
Most residents indicated they would increase their driving times to reduce pedestrian, cyclist and motorist crashes, injuries and deaths, with about one-quarter reporting they would substantially increase their driving time to prevent accidents.
As in years past, reviews for street repairs were lower than national averages and should remain an area of focus to maintain high standards of mobility in Ann Arbor.

Minister Pippa Hackett’s Visit
Showcases Importance of Native Planting Methodologies for Rural Communities
Carlow, Ireland – On June 12th, 2023, Senator Pippa Hackett TD, Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, visited SME Cullen Nurseries in County Carlow.
Cullen Nurseries, founded by Robert & Catriona Cullen, is a Department of Agriculture approved native tree and hedging nursery located in Hacketstown, Carlow.

She also highlighted the role that the newly launched Acres Scheme plays in promoting sustainable land use practices and supporting rural communities.
Robert Cullen, owner of Cullen Nurseries, expressed his thoughts on the visit, stating, “Native trees and hedging are vital for the preservation of Ireland’s biodiversity, as they provide habitats for a wide range of wildlife. They also play a key role in carbon sequestration, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. We are delighted to welcome Minister Hackett to Cullen Nurseries to highlight the importance of planting native trees and hedging, be it for the Acres Scheme or planting in our homes, villages, and communities. We believe that planting native species plays a crucial role in preserving Ireland’s natural heritage and tackling biodiversity decline, and we are proud to be an approved supplier to the Acres scheme.”

Confidence: The Ultimate WIP Killer
You may not agree, but for me, the ultimate killer of a WIP is confidence. Lacking confidence can destroy a manuscript before it even gets written. Before I began writing my first official WIP, I had plenty of ideas, but lacked the confidence to write them.
Sure, I masked the lack of confidence with other excuses like, "I don't have enough time to write" and "I don't really want to be an author", but in the end it all comes back to confidence. I didn't have any. I didn't believe in myself or my ability to tell a story. I made up reasons for why I could never be a writer and almost believed it. It wasn't until my husband gave me a little nudge that I finally realized that I'd never know unless I tried.
Turns out I just needed confidence. Huh. Who knew?
So when you are writing and hit that brick wall and step away from your WIP for a day or two or even a month, don't let yourself believe the inner doubt. You can do it. It's not easy, but it'll be worth it.
And you know what they say, right? Fake it until you make it.

skclements got their new illustration or graphics by running a design contest:
Illustration to capture transformation of high performing and successful women through coaching
Check out skclements's Illustration or graphics contest…
Business & Consulting
I’m a professional coach who typically works with one-on-one with personal clients. They're typically successful and high performing but they've reached a point in their life where they're feeling stuck, unhappy, discontent or unfulfilled and are looking to make a change. That change could be a change in career, a change in approach, a change in industry, a change in work/life balance - it could be anything - but they're at the point where they realise change needs to happen.
What's your vision?
I want an image, with a transparent background, for the banner of my website (https://stephenclements.ie) that captures the transformative work that I do with my clients. Those successful and high performing, usually female, who are looking for a change so that they can reach a point of fulfilment and happiness with their life. Following what's in their heart. Transforming and building up the success that they already have. The image I'm looking for should be 1024x591 px with a transparent background. (I'll do the scaling) it will replace the really woeful placeholder I've put in there (that's the extend of my own drawing) you'll see it on my home page on the right hand side - hand drawn sketch of a person with a star in the background... only a placeholder as I was changing themes and revamping my website . I'm looking for something that will capture the essence of what I do but is not overly complex - but at the same time conveys the key elements: successful, love, fulfilment, transformation, empowerment (I don't ask much do I!). In terms of my own branding and colour palette - these are the colours that are predominately used in my logo and website: #0095da #F2DC5D #F2A359 #F56476 #E43F6F I'm happy for others to be used, as long as it fits in with everything else!
Whilst this is primarily for the website banner, I'd love an image that I can incorporate into other aspects of my branding in terms of powerpoint presentations, LinkedIn posts etc., so i'm really looking for something that can capture the essence of what I do - maybe even metaphorically is fine... just use your own imagination!
€499 Silver package
Every design category has flexible pricing for all budgets. Illustration or graphics starts at $349.

Relaxed eddy accumulation (REA) systems that employ one single long inlet tube are prone to measurement uncertainties caused by (a) an imprecisely determined lag time between the change of sign in the vertical wind velocity and the switching of the splitter valves and (b) attenuation of high-frequent concentration fluctuations in the tube flow. However, there is currently no commonly applied procedure to address these uncertainties. In this study, we first evaluated the lag time error of the volume flow, mass flow and cross-correlation method (online and offline) and experimentally determined the magnitude of high frequency attenuation for a 21.5 m long inlet tube of an operating REA system. In a second step, we simulated the impact for different artificial lag time errors and low-pass filter strengths on the REA concentration differences and, thus, on the REA flux, using high frequency time series of temperature, O3, CO2 and H2O. The reduction of scalar fluxes was mainly correlated with increasing switching frequencies and ranged for typical lag time errors of the investigated REA system between <5% and 50%, whereas the flux loss due to high frequency attenuation was between <5% and 30%. The results were very similar for all scalar quantities. Based on our results, we derived empirical correction functions for both imprecise lag times and high frequency attenuation, discuss their potential application to correct fluxes measured with other REA systems and give a general procedure to address the uncertainties in future REA setups.

Company changing pipeline's direction
By GREG HARMAN
Years ago Exxon was pumping raw West Texas crude down 450
miles of pipeline from Crane to Houston for processing, sale
and global distribution. Now Longhorn Pipeline, a
transportation company, hopes to reverse the flow of the
existent line, add 250 miles of new 18-inch pipe stretching
west from Crane to El Paso, and ship unbranded distillates
and gasoline to West Texas area consumers.
Longhorn Pipeline, a limited partnership between Exxon,
Amoco, and Williams pipeline companies and Beacon Energy
Investment Fund, hopes to begin transporting gasoline
product to West Texas consumers by the end of the year.
"There will be benefits down the whole way," said spokesman
Michael Patterson, speaking of the project. Terminals to
sell gasoline product will be set up in both Odessa and El
The underground line which will initially ship 72,000
barrels per day, down from officials' estimates of 80,000
made last year, will cut through central Ward County and
central and northern Reeves County.
Williams Energy Group, out of Tulsa, Okla., had construction
crews east of Barstow leveling ground yesterday, preparing
for the channel ditch and bright red pipe. Patterson said
the capacity of the pipeline may one day near 200,000
barrels per day.
At the Barstow construction site yesterday, worker Ruben
Lopez tried to grin away 109-degree temperatures as he
measured off the pipeline stakes.
"I'm not used to this heat," he said from beneath his white
hardhat. "I've worked all over this country, but never in
heat like this," he said, citing jobs in Wisconsin and
Pipeline construction workers, who one official estimated
may number as many as 150 on some days, are provided with
plenty of water.
Longhorn Pipeline hopes that connecting Gulf Coast
refineries and shippers to growth areas in the Southwest for
the first time will decrease the cost of gasoline for
consumers in those areas.
But will Pecos, caught in the expanse between the two urban
giants, benefit also?
"We would hope that the market forces make that switch,"
said Patterson, "but we have no control over the refiners."
Self-serve gas prices in Pecos right now are between 97.9
cents and $1.05.9 per gallon for regular unleaded. That's as
much as 27 cents a gallon lower than some other neighboring
towns, such as Fort Stockton and Alpine, but still higher
than in cities nearer to the Gulf Coast.
Carter Montgomery, Longhorn's president vowed that the
company has the shipper volumes committed "to provide
economic viability of the project."
The Longhorn Partners Pipeline, beginning at a GATX company
terminal, will be the first western branching pipeline in
the terminal's existent fan of petroleum lines currently
moving product to the northeastern United States. However,
the line which begins in Galena Park, about 10 miles
southeast of Houston, faces a legal dispute.
A group of Texas landowners object to the older line,
stretching from Houston to Crane, being used to transport
gasoline product through their land without Longhorn
performing an Environmental Impact Study to assess the
hazards of potential leakage.
The 700-mile line will connect in El Paso will a longer
series of line, one moving north to Albuquerque and another
to Tucson, Phoenix and beyond.
"The southwest markets are among the fastest growing in
North America," said Roger Williams, Amoco's vice president
for distillates and asphalt. "In an environment of
rapidly-changing fuel specifications, Amoco will provide
marketers and large end users the quality energy products
they need to compete in the new millennium."
PBDTF closure drug investigations
By GREG HARMAN
Imagine trying to run an undercover operation in a town
where, literally, everyone knows everyone else.
Should the Permian Basin Drug Task Force (PBDTF) be shut
down permanently by the state, said Reeves County Sheriff
Andy Gomez this morning, it will signal the end of effective
local undercover operations, diminish the county's caseload
and bring drug dealers back out into the open.
The Criminal Justice Division of Gov. George W. Bush' office
announced Monday it would not renew funding for the PBDTF,
citing concerns about the financial integrity of the task
force's funds. The agency was the only one out of 47
multi-jurisdictional drug task forces in Texas not to have
their funding renewed.
"If there is any wrongdoing the guy (Task Force Director Tom
Finley) should be punished, but don't shut the whole thing
down," he said. "Instead of helping us out, the state is
putting obstacles in front of us."
Gomez said that there were two officers at the Sheriff's
Office that could do open investigations, but undercover
work is impossible without unfamiliar faces.
Police Chief Clay McKinney, himself no stranger to
undercover work, said that the smaller communities would be
impacted the most by the shutdown of the PBDTF. "In the past
we used to borrow officers from other agencies, and in turn
lend out our officers, for undercover work. We may have to
go back to that," said the former undercover officer.
McKinney, who was one of several area law enforcement
officials to sign a letter in support of the task force and
commander Tom Finley -- said another possibility for the
smaller communities was the formation of a multi-county
agency to attempt to fill the boots of the task force.
Nancy Hugon, director of the Criminal Justice Division
within the governor's office, denied the PBDTF's $2 million
grant request for this year, citing "serious allegations
about the financial integrity" of the task force's funds,"
according to Linda Evans, deputy director of communications
for Governor Bush.
"The Texas Rangers, the FBI, and Texas Attorney General's
office have been investigating criminal allegations." said
Evans. "Until certain funds are secure, the criminal justice
division cannot fund the task force. The criminal justice
division is accountable to the federal government for the
use of those funds and must ensure the funds are spent
appropriately and within federal guidelines."
Evans said that other management and structural changes of
the PBDTF are being considered for the 15-county area
previously served by the task force.
Ector County District Attorney John Smith began the
investigation of the task force in late 1996, after
receiving a letter from Yoakum County DA Richard Clark in
which allegations of wrongdoing were made by a former PBDTF
The exact charges of criminal wrongdoing against PBDTF and
Finley that led to the denial of state funds have not been
explained, but the task force itself is no stranger to
Finley has been involved in an on-going legal battle against
former 143rd District Attorney John Stickels, after a letter
written by Finley and published on May 31, 1996 in the
Enterprise led to a lawsuit being filed by the
In the letter -- dated May 23, 1996 and also sent to other
area law enforcement agencies -- Finely referred to Stickels
as a "failure" as a prosecutor and publicly asked him to
step down, after Stickels refused to prosecute cases filed
by the task force within the 143rd district.
Stickels countered with a libel lawsuit in July, 1996,
against Finley that has yet to be resolved. In the suit,
Stickels states that an El Paso Court of Appeals ruled that
PBDTF had "no jurisdictional authority" outside of Ector
County and, for this reason, he was severely hindered in his
ability to prosecute PBDTF arrests.
Stickels claimed Finley's letter, published in several other
papers and reported on regional television news channels,
held him up to public contempt and ridicule.
Stickels served as District Attorney in the 143rd District
from 1992 to 1996. He did not seek a second term, and is
currently a private practice lawyer in Austin.
It was unknown if any officials involved in the current
investigation have talked with Stickels about his problems
with the task force. Neither Stickels nor Finley were
available for comment this morning.
Rabid calf means shots for residents
FORT DAVIS (AP) -- Nine children who bottle-fed an orphan
calf that was later discovered to have rabies have begun a
series of rabies shots in Jeff Davis County.
Five adults also came in contact with the calf and have been
vaccinated, officials said.
The oldest of the children was 10, Dr. Evret Newman, a
regional veterinarian with the Texas Department of Health,
Dr. Janet Greathouse, the veterinarian for rabies control
authority in Jeff Davis County, said it's not unusual for
cattle to get rabies.
``They can get bitten by a (rabid) skunk or a fox,'' she
said. ``Most people don't vaccinate their cattle, although
there is an approved vaccine.
``It can be pretty expensive when applied to a whole herd,
and it takes twice the amount needed for a dog.''
Dr. Greathouse said tests came back last Wednesday reporting
that the calf was positive for rabies.
``The saliva carries the virus,'' she said. ``Any time you
come in contact with the saliva and you have any cuts, you
are exposed. I don't think anybody has gotten rabies from a
So many people were exposed to the calf because everyone
wanted to get in on the act, Newman said.
``An orphaned calf is as cute as a puppy or a kitten, so
every little kid was giving it a bottle,'' he said.
Newman recommended that anyone wear gloves before
bottle-feeding a calf or other animal.
``People think that wearing gloves makes you a sissy,''
Newman said. ``It doesn't.''
Ministry offers aid with medication
By ROSIE FLORES
About 22 people in the Pecos area who cannot afford to
purchase their own medication have already benefited from a
local program aimed at helping those who are in need of
The Zion Ministries medication assistance program was
organized by founder Elder Billy R. Woodard, who stated that
he "gives God praise for it's continued success."
The program began operations on March 19 as a supplement
program for indigent persons needing medications
immediately, while awaiting eligibility for local programs.
Zion Ministries receives many of it's referrals from the
Reeves County Hospital indigent care program, according to
"Zion Ministries is financed by it's founder and a precious
few members by way of Biblical tithing, free will offerings,
and occasional fund raisers," said Woodard.
The program asks that if at all possible that the applicants
pay one-third of their prescription costs into the ministry
so that others may benefit from the program, according to
"If the applicants cannot afford a third of their
prescription cost we ask at some point and time that you
give a donation to the program," said Woodard.
Since the inception of the medication assistance program in
March, the program has provided much needed medications for
various persons, according to Woodard.
He said that Zion Ministries has an account set up with the
Wal-Mart pharmacy. The hospital will refer patients who need
medication to the ministry, and when they approve someone
for aid, they will call the pharmacy. Pharmacists there will
then fill the prescription and bill the ministry each month.
"There are only six people in our group right now, and more
volunteers are needed," said Woodard.
The group has already spent about $2,000 on the program and
want to help others. "But we need the cooperation of more
individuals and more funds to benefit this program," he said.
The group has been meeting on Saturday mornings and those
who would like to participate can contact Woodard at
The program is currently seeking a government grant,
community help, local church participation in helping to
keep the program in operation.
Anyone who would like to make a donation can send it to Zion
Ministries, P.O. Box 308, Pecos, Tx., 79772.
State joins areas in worries of drought
From Staff and Wire Reports
With only .15 of an inch of rain over the first five months
of 1996, farmers and ranchers in the Trans-Pecos already
know what others in Texas are finding out -- there's a
drought problem looming for Texas.
Temperatures hit 109 degrees in Pecos on Monday, and the
area is already in the grips of its second dry Spring in
three years. But with the thermometer surpassing 100 degrees
across the state every day since late last week, other parts
of Texas also are beginning to have drought concerns.
Some crops, such as non-irrigated cotton in the West Texas
high plains, might already be lost or severely damaged.
Agriculture experts say farmers may see smaller yields
unless rain returns soon.
A drop in the level of the Edwards Aquifer resulted Monday
in restrictions on watering of lawns and gardens in five
counties around San Antonio.
At least one death might have been heat related, authorities
said. A 23-year-old man was found dead on a bicycle trail at
Cedar Hill State Park south of Dallas.
During April and May, little or no rain fell in most parts
of South and West Texas. Pecos received just .03 inch of
rain over the past two months, and other cities received
less than an inch of rain. Add the recent temperatures - up
to 110 Monday in Childress - and people start using the
But many experts think the state is in good shape to
withstand a dry spell because of heavy rains late last year
and early this year.
``We're in great shape to confront a drought, and we are in
one now,'' Austin meteorologist George Bomar told the
Dallas Morning News.
Farmers in some areas of West Texas hardest hit by the
drought of 1996 are managing well because the Rio Grande's
flow has remained good. But agriculture officials in
Presidio County said if the area doesn't get rain soon,
ranchers could be forced to sell off livestock.
Heavy snowfall over the winter in northern New Mexico helped
the flow of both the Rio Grande and the Pecos River, which
raised the level of Red Bluff Lake to almost 100,000
acre/feet in early Spring. That was higher than in recent
years at the lake, which supplies irrigation water to
farmers along the Pecos River in Reeves, Ward, Pecos and
Forecasters predict the dry conditions and searing heat will
continue for several more days.
Decades-old high-temperature records fell Monday in Del Rio,
where it reached 108 degrees; Lubbock, 105 degrees;
Amarillo, 103; Midland, 106 degrees; and San Angelo, 105
Temperatures topped 100 in Dallas-Fort Worth and reached 109
in Wichita Falls and 110 in Childress.
A weekend of heavy water use caused the Edwards Aquifer
level in San Antonio to drop below 650 feet above mean sea
level, to 649.2 feet Monday. That triggered the first stage
of area water conservation rules.
Restrictions in Bexar, Comal, Hays, Caldwell and Guadalupe
counties include a city ban on landscape watering from 10
a.m. to 8 p.m.; a requirement that restaurants serve water
only on request; and a rule that swimming pools be at least
25 percent covered when not in use.
The Barton Springs-Edwards Aquifer Conservation District in
Austin also asked residents Monday to conserve water.
The high-pressure system causing the sunny, hot weather
across Texas is expected to last several days, said Robert
Robledo of the National Weather Service. But an approaching
low-pressure system could produce a chance of showers by the
weekend, he said.
High Monday 109. Low this morning 65. Forecast for tonight:
Clear, low in the lower 70s. South wind 5-15 mph. Wednesday,
record high temperatures continuing. High near 110.
Southwest wind 10-20 mph.

Hearts stopping drama
North of the Border looks at Hibernian's painful 5-1 Scottish Cup final defeat against Hearts, matters settled in the Scottish Football League promotion and relegation battles and Donald Trump's "thoughts" on Rangers.
111 AND COUNTING...
Cup finals and derbies. The form book goes out of the window, right? A cup final derby? The form book could be gone for good, lost on the winds of a fixture so cataclysmic that it shifts the balance between two teams forever. Such were the sandy foundations upon which the Scottish Cup hopes of Hibernian were built before they met their arch rivals, Hearts, in a bid to break a 110-year curse in that competition.
Well, it turns out that the two forces pushing the form book toward the window cancel each other out. The form book was in the room, in a box, sealed hermetically against any particles that may degrade it.
The torturous nature of the 5-1 defeat suffered by Hibs made for sadistic entertainment for those without a stake in what was happening in Hampden. And, of course, for Hearts supporters.
Both these teams will look very different next season. Hearts, who paid their players late on several occasions this campaign, have promised swingeing cuts in the summer and as the celebrations continued in Gorgie, to the west of the capital, Stephen Elliott, the starting centre forward of the cup final team, and Gary Glen, an academy graduate, were told their contracts will not be renewed. That news had already been broken to Ian Black, the man of the match at Hampden, David Obua, Adrian Mrowiec and Marian Kello. After scoring two goals in the final, Rudi Skacel said he was "99% certain that was my last game for Hearts". Suso Santana, another cup winner, another high earner, is likely to go, as well and there may be more. The pathway from Hearts' academy to the first team is now as wide as the river Forth.
At Hibs, Pat Fenlon had reconstructed the side he inherited around loan signings made in the January window. Yet they only survived in the SPL on the second last game of the season and the patchwork nature of the collective and perhaps something of the mentality of a team made up of temporary recruits was revealed in a meek surrender at Hampden.
At the start of the week, when their supporters were still struggling to come to terms with a humiliation that is hard to wash off, Hibs released a club statement recognising the impact of the defeat and promising to undertake the rebuilding task that is evidently necessary. With seven loan players and several more out of contract in the summer, turnover at Hibs could be every bit as dramatic as across Edinburgh.
The teams are certain to change, perhaps more than they ever have during a close season, but those who watch the Edinburgh teams will not. What happened at Hampden last Saturday was always going to be more about them and it has left those in charge at Hibs in their debt.
Down the leagues, the promotion and relegation issues of the Scottish Football League were resolved in two-legged play-off finals.
Albion Rovers saved their place in the Second Division by defeating Stranraer in a penalty shoot-out, while Dumbarton follow Cowdenbeath into the First Division after a comprehensive 6-2 aggregate win over Airdrie United.
Two of their goals in a 4-1 win in the decisive away leg came from Craig Dargo, a striker who left a long career in the SPL behind him last summer and this season ended both transfer windows without a club before agreeing short-term contracts with Partick Thistle and Dumbarton, AKA The Sons. Since joining the promotion-chasing Second Division team in March, he has been prolific.
The 34-year-old played at Airdrie with a damaged hamstring and at the end of his contract, and ended with, as he said: "the first promotion of my career - the first thing I have won".
A career that peaked with a solitary cap for Scotland B may now be that of lower league hired gun, but Dargo has proved that his aim is still true.
THE DONALD DITHERS
This week at Rangers, there was some interesting side action. The most attention-grabbing line of the week came from "sources close to" Donald Trump. The Donald is building a golf course and resort near Aberdeen that he hopes will be championship standard. He has roots in that area and we're not talking about the prehistoric origins of that incredible weave. Now it turns out he came very close to having his new Xanadu invaded by angry, pitch-fork baring locals.
The Donald "thought hard" (thank you, sources) about making a move for Rangers, both before and after they entered administration. Depending on how "hard" he "thought", one of the reasons for not buying the Glasgow club could have been their low standing among the football supporters of Aberdeen, who have been known to taunt visiting Celtic supporters with a chorus of "We hate Rangers more than you".
Elsewhere on Planet Rangers, the SPL chief executive, Neil Doncaster, appeared to be doing some groundwork with comments suggesting a newco Rangers should be treated no differently than if the club emerge from administration via a Company Voluntary Agreement (CVA). The latter route involves creditors agreeing to a deal that sees them receive a small percentage of the debt they are owed, the former bypasses them - one of the reasons UEFA suspend all newco organisations for three years.
The big dates in this story are next week: the SPL meet on Wednesday, May 30 to rule on the sanctions Rangers will face as part of their financial fair play regulations; the following Friday, the wages of the players who accepted pay cuts of up to 75% revert to their contracted amounts. The majority will be sold for reduced fees as part of those agreements and with a 12-month transfer embargo enforced by the SFA preventing their replacement, this remains a crippling punishment to Rangers for next season.

Singulair is a medication designed to improve breathing in people suffering from asthma and allergies. It is a brand name for Montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist that stops the activities of leukotrienes in the lungs. Leukotrienes are chemicals that cause the symptoms of asthma and allergies such as coughing, wheezing, and runny nose. Singulair helps to reduce inflammation and swelling of the airways, making it easier to breathe. The medication is available in tablet form and is usually taken once a day. It is not a quick-relief medication and should not be used to treat sudden asthma or allergy attacks. Singulair is highly effective in controlling asthma and allergy symptoms and is safe for long-term use. It is available only with a doctor's prescription.
How Does Singulair Work?
Singulair works by blocking leukotrienes, which are chemicals produced by the body that cause inflammation and constriction of airways in the lungs. By blocking these leukotrienes, Singulair can help improve breathing, reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks, and relieve symptoms of allergies. Singulair is also effective in preventing exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, a condition in which physical activity triggers asthma symptoms. This medication is taken orally once a day and can be used in combination with other asthma or allergy medications as prescribed by a healthcare provider. Singulair is a safe and effective option for managing asthma and allergy symptoms, but it is important to talk to a doctor about any potential side effects or interactions with other medications before starting treatment.
Benefits of Using Singulair
Benefits of Using Singulair: Singulair can provide relief from symptoms related to asthma and seasonal allergies such as sneezing, runny nose, and wheezing. It works by blocking leukotrienes, which are chemicals that cause inflammation and swelling in the airways. Singulair can also improve breathing function and reduce the need for rescue inhalers. In addition, Singulair can be used as a preventive measure for exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. Its long-term use has been shown to reduce asthma exacerbations and improve quality of life for those with asthma. Singulair is also approved for use in children as young as six months old. However, as with any medication, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting Singulair to determine if it is the right treatment option.
Who Can Benefit from Singulair?
Who Can Benefit from Singulair? Singulair is an effective medication for asthma and other respiratory disorders. It is mostly prescribed for people over the age of 6 years and can be used in combination with other medications. Singulair is beneficial for people suffering from asthma, seasonal allergies, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It works by reducing inflammation and swelling in the airways, making it easier for the air to pass through. Singulair also helps in preventing asthma symptoms like wheezing and coughing, especially during the night. Additionally, Singulair can be used to treat exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. Asthma patients who are looking for a medication that can provide long-term relief from the symptoms of asthma can benefit from Singulair. However, it is important to discuss the use of Singulair with your healthcare provider to ensure that it is the right medication for you.
Common Side Effects of Singulair
Common side effects of Singulair include headache, stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, and tiredness. However, these side effects are usually mild and temporary. In rare cases, Singulair can cause serious side effects such as allergic reactions, depression, and suicidal thoughts. It is important to seek medical attention immediately if you experience any serious side effects. Your doctor will discuss the potential risks and benefits of Singulair before prescribing it to you.
How to Take Singulair Safely
Common Side Effects of Singulair include headache, stomach pain, heartburn, nausea, diarrhea, weakness, and fever. Some people may also experience a rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing. It is important to inform your doctor if you experience any prolonged or severe side effects while taking Singulair. In rare cases, Singulair has been associated with serious side effects such as mood changes, suicidal thoughts, and allergic reactions. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately. It is also important to note that Singulair may interact with other medications, so it is important to inform your doctor of any ongoing treatments.
