TIMBER TRAILS is the final book in The American Blend Series. In 1781, a British soldier at Yorktown predicted to a patriot that some day their families would be united, forming their American Blend. The prediction came true in 1920 when Calvin Roberts met Lori Genet. But Calvin first had to survive the Flu epidemic of 1918, and Lori had to survive the death of her fiance, in World War I. Together they faced an uncertain future, the 1930’s depression, Calvin’s suicide bout, and World War II where both their sons are reported missing in action. The timber trails mean peace to Calvin and yet, danger to his son, Brad.

Japanese delegates might enjoy a drive through the Hilltop, Belcaro and Crestmoor neighborhoods, where for decades armies of Japanese gardeners have tortured evergreens into magnificent sakai, the outdoor version of bonsai. The Denver Botanic Gardens also features Japanese landscaping around its traditional teahouse. But perhaps the best example of the Japanese influence in Denver is the engaging formalist-style Colorado National Bank Tower of 1972, by Japanese-born American architect Minoru Yamasaki. The building, at 950 17th Street, has recently been sold, and owing to the ravages of nature, the concrete piers are currently being stripped of their marble cladding, which had begun to spall. With any luck, the building will be restored to its former glory shortly.
Thanks to a wave of recent immigrants, Yeltsin should have no trouble finding a banya while he's in town. Unfortunately, though, the best place to see the Russian influence in Denver is probably over at the former Lowry Air Force Base. What with the Cold War over, the base is now being redeveloped, an indication of how the perceived Russian threat has dwindled in recent years. Too bad the PCBs in the groundwater won't go away as quickly.
Whether the delegates will actually take the time to ponder how their respective cultures have affected Denver is questionable, of course. Their free time might better be spent seeing something uniquely American. Touring the public art erected by the administration of Mayor Wellington Webb with the help of First Lady and arts maven Wilma would be a mistake, since it's a bunch of junk. But there is one recently completed public-art project--"Platte Valley Time Vanes," by David Griggs, on the 23rd Street Viaduct--that's worth looking at.
The piece comprises six sculptural elements that have been placed as finials on top of the piers that support the bridge. Four are located at the Coors Field end of the viaduct--two on 23rd Street, two on 22nd Street--and the last two at the 1-25 end of the bridge. The commission was worth $195,000, and it's a shame there wasn't more money, because the viaduct could take another six of these sculptures, maybe even eight.
Griggs's theme is a play on the concept of weather vanes. The weather vane reveals the way the wind blows, the time vane the flow of the times. Each of the sculptures, he says, refers "to the history of the Platte Valley and the people who moved through it."
The valley has long been a center for transportation in Denver, and the idea of movement--in this case the movement of time--is a signature interest for Griggs. "My preoccupation with transportation is practically genetic," he says. "My grandfather ran a railroad, my father an airline, and my brother a ferry."
Given these biographical facts, it's interesting to note that the spectacular "Dual Meridian," Griggs's as-yet unsurpassed masterpiece, is located at Denver International Airport. "Dual Meridian" was unveiled in 1994 to career-establishing acclaim, which surely helped Griggs garner the "Time Vanes" commission as well as others in New Mexico and Alaska.
But Griggs, who came to Denver from Minneapolis in 1979 after an aborted career as a psychologist, is no local art upstart, even if "Dual Meridian" was his first fully developed piece. He's been exhibiting installations locally since 1982, when he created "Betty Boop/Condo Condo" while still a student at CU-Boulder, where he later received his MFA.
It wasn't until the late 1980s that Griggs began to create installations that anticipated such mature work as "Dual Meridian" and the "Time Vanes." But his early pieces were constructed of insubstantial materials like paper and masonite, so they lacked one of the most appealing aspects of his more recent work--solidity. The "Time Vanes" are made of painted steel, some with copper. Fabricated by Denver's Zimmerman Metals, they weigh from 7,000 to 11,000 pounds each. And they look weighty, too.
Four of the six "Time Vanes," all of which have been given nicknames, refer to specific periods over the last one hundred years. On 23rd Street are "Native American," which looks like the silhouettes of three tepees, and "Railroad," which looks like a bridge truss with a smokestack in the center and cowcatchers around the base. "Native American," says Griggs, refers to the Indian encampments that would have occupied the Platte Valley in the 1850s. "Railroad" looks back to the early part of this century, when 100 trains a day went through Union Station.
The two sculptures on 22nd Street take us up to the present. The early twentieth century is represented by the pieces nicknamed "Tree Flame" and "Future Spiral." In "Tree Flame," Griggs has placed a copper silhouette of a bush in the center of a sphere. "It's about Mayor Speer," Griggs says, referring to the legendary Denver pol's "City Beautiful" campaign. "Future Spiral" looks to the 21st century with a spiral of ever-opening satellite dishes.

ASBURY PARK – A traffic stop last week lead Asbury Park police to find a stash of $26,000 in cash and 138 bricks of heroin, adding additional charges against an accused drug dealer, authorities said.
Asbury Park resident Vince Jackson, 48, was pulled over April 6 around 11:30 p.m. for a motor vehicle violation and police found an undisclosed amount of heroin in his car, said Capt. Anthony Salerno.
He was charged with possession of heroin and possession with intent to distribute, and taken to the Monmouth County Correctional Institution in lieu of $150,000 bail with no 10 percent option.
While police were investigating that incident, a safe belonging to Jackson was found at his friend’s house and police got a search warrant to open the safe, Salerno said, noting it was a joint investigation with Asbury Park police and the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office. Methadone pills, 138 bricks of heroin, equivalent to 6,900 bags with a street value at $69,000, and a 1998 Oldsmobile were seized on April 10, Salerno said.
Salerno said Jackson has an “extensive” criminal history and is currently under indictment for drug distribution charges.
An additional $500,000 cash bail with no 10 percent option was imposed after police found the contents of the safe, Salerno said, noting if Jackson posted bail he would need to reveal where the money came from.

Just a short note on why people should have us analyze their situation before they get into rescission litigation. It is true that there should not be any litigation where the rescission was sent, received and the “creditor” did nothing for more than 20 days and frequently more than 1 year and even several years.

The high calorie diet in the affluent west contributes to a sizable proportion of cancers. The high dietary fat increases the risk of colonic cancer by increasing the bile acids in the bowel. Dietary fat, high calorie non-vegetarian diet of refined foods can give rise to the cancer of uterus, rectum, large intestine and stomach. Several studies have found a remarkably low incidence of cancer among vegetarians.
There are about 100 kinds of cancer which attack human beings. It is a disease in which cells multiply uncontrollably, destroy healthy tissue and harm life. It has been a leading cause of death in many countries including India. It can attack any part of the body however the parts most affected are the skin, the digestive organs, the lungs and the female breasts. Cancer causing agents are the tars in tobacco smoke, a variety of other chemicals, and certain kinds of radiation.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
When you have cramping abdominal pain, often after food, with alterations in the bowel habit, it may be constipation, or diarrhoea and may lead to flatulence. Small pellets or marble-like faeces often along with mucous and undigested food are passed. It is twice more common in women than men and occurs generally by the middle years of life. People generally develop this syndrome after gastro-enteritis or after a long course of antibiotics.
If aspirin is dangerous what can be done to relieve pain? There are many new drugs flooding the market – they are called non steroidal antiinflammatory drugs. They are mild pain relievers and fight inflammation.

Poker is a game that requires a lot of attention. It’s a mental game where you need to be constantly thinking about what your opponents are doing and planning your next move. This type of brain exercise is great for improving your critical thinking skills and helps you make better decisions in other parts of life.
Poker also teaches you how to manage your emotions. The game can be very stressful, especially if you’re playing in a tournament with big stakes. It’s important to control your emotions and not let them get out of hand, because if you do that, your opponents will be able to read your tells and exploit your weaknesses. Poker teaches you how to keep your cool under pressure and be polite in the face of adversity.
The game of poker is a lot of fun and can be quite rewarding, but it’s not easy. Many people have trouble breaking even or becoming a winning player. In many cases, the difference between break-even beginner players and million dollar winners is just a few small adjustments that are learned over time. These changes usually have to do with starting to view the game in a more cold, detached, mathematical, and logical way than you presently do.
One of the most difficult things to learn when you’re a beginner poker player is how to read your opponents. This is a big part of the game and it involves learning the subtle physical poker “tells” that players give off, but it’s also about paying attention to patterns in the play of your opponents. For example, if you see an opponent always calling, then it’s probably safe to assume that they are holding mediocre or drawing hands.
Another skill that is very important in poker is being able to change your strategy on the fly. If you’re playing with a good player and your plan starts to go awry, then you need to be able to quickly come up with a different strategy. This is why it’s so important to have a variety of poker tactics that you can use in different situations.
Finally, poker teaches you how to focus your attention. You need to be able to concentrate intensely for long periods of time and you must be able to read your opponents very well. This is a valuable skill that you can apply in other areas of your life, including work and relationships.

Australia, Austria, Austrian Alps, Bad Gastein, BMW, Central Eastern Alps, Gold Coast, John Lennon, Zell Am See
“Just as a glass of fine wine can renew the soul at the end of a long stress-filled day, so too can an intoxicatingly, beautiful landscape rejuvenate the depleted spirit and bring renewed joy to the recesses of our immortalised journeys.” KidazzleInk
Totally excited by the prospect of spending yet another exhilarating day, venturing out into Austria’s chartreuse green landscape, snow-capped mountains and tiffany blue waters, we decided to arise early.
The glorious morning vista of the Austrian Alps was beckoning just outside our window. Once again, it was so totally mesmerizing. The mountains were shrouded in their usual, whimsical mists.
For a brief time, we actually enjoyed just sitting back, relaxing, and watching yet another beautiful sunrise.
After a light breakfast, we eagerly gathered a few basic belongings together; our Austrian map, my beloved camera, my beloved’s mobile phone, our new BMW keys and warm overcoats…..
Then we were on our way.
Driving out of Bad Gastein (our carefully chosen base on this Austrian leg of our holiday) we meandered off towards the charming little lakeside village of Zell Am See. We’d previously been advised by our very reputable and, indeed, internationally-knowledgeable neighbours back at home (back in God’s own Country) on the Gold Coast in Australia, that this lovely Austrian “Lakes District” would be well positioned within one of Austria’s most picturesque regions.
We were already motoring and we were very enthusiastic about the opportunity to spend some more time exploring these new scenic surroundings.
As we drove, the valleys appeared to glow like green, peridot sapphires. Floating clouds and mists continually wafted across the melting, snow-capped peaks. Water from the run-off flooded into the little creeks and then on into rivers and lakes, making them appear an amazing, snowy-shade of tiffany blue.
You know…..the Austrian landscape is always so breathtakingly beautiful! Our Australian neighbours had been right yet again.
Yet, despite these amazing surroundings, my personal monsters were once again returning. My internalised fears about the right-handed driving experience were again, inexplicably intruding. Sadly, I can’t lay any claim to exhibiting very much in the way of helpful, or even remotely well-mannered, co-pilot behavior during this journey. I would have to admit to again being quite terrified by the prospect of driving on (what, I firmly believed to be) the WRONG SIDE OF THE CAR and the WRONG SIDE OF THE ROAD! I have previously written about these personal, overly-dramatic driving dilemmas in another recent post entitled, John Lennon: Fear and Love. Today, sad to say, was definitely no different….especially for my poor dearly-beloved as he suffered yet more of my vocal distress.
Thankfully, the beauty of the region just kept drawing us in and moving us forward.
On arrival in the pretty little township of Zell Am Zee, we found ourselves rather ill prepared for the day’s sightseeing, which we had hoped, would take us all the way into the old-town area or “Altstadt”, and quite naturally past the lake of Zell Am See itself. We had an old map, but it offered little detail in relation to the roads within the township….… we had access to the BMWs Sat Nav but we were still complete novices when it came to using it….. we had no Google connections on our mobile phones and amazingly……we had absolutely no of idea where we were going!
The plan had been to visit the Zell Am See Information Centre soon after arrival. Unfortunately, we just couldn’t find it – the centre certainly wasn’t where we had imagined it would be.
Resourcefully, we quickly decided to ask some of the friendly locals (who miraculously spoke a little bit of broken English). With thanks to these lovely “oh so kindly and oh so helpful Austrians” we were soon heading off again, now following them in the direction they knew we needed to go.
However, even despite their best endeavours, they never actually succeeded in getting us to our final destination. Don’t ask why …..we just simply managed to turn off prematurely yet again!!!
Finding ourselves with somewhat depleted spirits, we decided to take some time to console ourselves and order an early lunch. Our grumbling stomachs were already telling us that breakfast had been a rather long time ago.
Would you believe, we were now conveniently parked outside a very captivatingly trendy little café called “Sascha’s”, on what I think may well have been the Eastern side of the little township!
I can only say that both of our Guardian Angels must now have started overseeing the day’s events!!
Sasha’s little café was just glorious with its comforting, snow-white, fur-covered alfresco dining areas; its warm, inviting interiors and its gracious and oh-so- accommodating owners. It was most convivial, modern, relaxed and somewhat up-market with fresh cream leather lounges, purple-neon lighting, and a menu of deliciously varied offerings. What more could one ask for on this somewhat chilly and disorienting spring morning? And yes….. our glamorously dressed hosts proved to be exceedingly charming too and soooo obliging. We left this lovely little eatery with a renewed vigour…. a recharged spirit that would soon spur us on to find both the scenic lakes-district and the historical old-town or “Altstadt”!

The 'New' New World Order
A President's Circle Luncheon with PARAG KHANNA, Senior Research Fellow & Director of the Global Governance Initiative, New America Foundation
The Asia Society Hong Kong Center is pleased to announce a President's Circle luncheon with Parag Khanna, Senior Research Fellow and Director of the Global Governance Initiative at the New America Foundation, a nonprofit, nonpartisan public policy institute that invests in new thinkers and new ideas to address the next generation of challenges facing the United States. Khanna will discuss the state of the world following the collapse of the post-Cold War order, particularly Asian-centric developments. Mr. Khanna is author of the international best-seller The Second World: Empires and Influence in the New Global Order, which looks at the epic political manipulations of nations. This book has been translated into more than a dozen languages. In 2007, he was a senior geopolitical advisor to the United States Special Operations Forces in Iraq and Afghanistan. Khanna was previously the Global Governance Fellow at the Brookings Institution. Esquire calls him one of the 75 people who will influence the 21st century. Khanna graduated in international affairs from the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, and received his Masters Degree from Georgetown's Security Studies Program. He is currently completing his PhD at the London School of Economics. Khanna is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and in 2009 he was honored by the World Economic Forum as a Young Global Leader.

The word "albondiga" comes from the Arabic word al-bunduqa meaning hazelnut, and it got its name from its round shape, simulating a hazelnut. It is not strange that we find so many words that are of Arabic origin in Spanish since Southern Spain, Al-Andalus, was almost 800 years under Arabic rule, and that translates into ¼ of Spanish vocabulary of Arabic origin. The Spanish meatball must have as many recipes as cooks. As a matter of fact, I think every time I make them I change something because I don’t have an ingredient or because I want to add another.
1 Pound Ground Beef
½ Pound Ground Pork
7 Smoked Bacon Strips (crispy, crushed in bits)
1 Slice of Rustic Bread soaked in Milk
½ Cup Parsley Finely Chopped
3 Tablespoons Garlic Cloves Finely Chopped
(Usually I make them 1/3 beef, 1/3 veal and 1/3 pork but I have to say these were very tasty.)
In a large bowl mix the ground beef and pork. Add the bread, bacon, parsley, and garlic, and keep mixing the ingredients very well. Finally, add the egg and mix it with the rest.
Start spooning the mix and work to form meatballs the size of a ping-pong ball until you are done. I made about 18 balls out off this mix. The next step is to dust them with flour, and then fry them in olive oil to sear them. When all the balls are seared set them aside while making the stew.
For the stew:
1 Onion Finely Chopped
1 Garlic Clove Finely Chopped
1 Tomato Chopped or 1 Can
3 Medium Potatoes
2 Boxes of Oyster Mushrooms
1 cup Peas
Chicken or Beef Stock
First, make the "sofrito." In a pan at a low heat, cook the onion and garlic until translucent. Then add the tomatoes until it is almost a paste, add the mushrooms and potatoes, and cover with the chicken stock. When the potatoes are half done add the peas. Keep cooking and when the potatoes are almost done add the meatballs and cook for another 5 minutes.

St. Luke's Hosts APEX Insider Event
On August 4, 2015, as part of a special APEX Insider event, more than 40 APEX investor-members were given a private tour of the just completed St. Luke’s surgical floor expansion. St. Luke’s Surgical & Procedural Care will open August 10th, after an extensive $22.5 million, 36,000 square foot expansion project.
John Strange, St. Luke’s CEO/President gave opening remarks to investor-members. “This high-tech facility is the future of St. Luke’s and will dramatically improve the way we deliver health care today. It also positions us to be adaptable in the future with the always-evolving health care landscape.” Strange indicated that the expansion had been part of the administration team’s vision since 1996, and that over the past three years St. Luke’s has invested more than $55 million in capital expenditures.
Dr. Mary Boylan and Dr. Scott Mikesell also addressed investor-members, while several St. Luke’s staff members provided tours of the expansion. The Surgical & Procedural Care floor includes one “hybrid” operating room – a traditional operating suite augmented with cutting-edge surgical imaging technology. Other additions include 42 private pre- and post-op patient rooms, four traditional operating rooms, five endoscopy and special procedure rooms, bedside registration and heated parking. These additions are expected to make the medical experience smoother for patients, patients’ families and health care providers alike.
ERDMAN of Madison, Wisconsin served as the general contractor for the project. Several Duluth companies played important roles in the construction process, including APEX investor-members The JAMAR Company and A.W. Kuettel.
“St. Luke’s has invested in a world-class surgical facility,” stated Brian Hanson, APEX President and CEO. “Having access to advanced technology, superior patient care and hospitality-minded health care facilities, our region has yet another desirable feature to attract new businesses and professionals,” continued Hanson.

Now that she is familiar with us and in her upgraded cage, we are looking into adopting another friend for her so she wont be lonely. It has been surprisingly difficult to find a female up for rescue in our area. After a good amount of sleuthing, we found a shelter with three eligible females up for adoption a short road trip away, and we are going to make the trek out this weekend. One is a sweet, solo girl. The other two are a bonded pair. I think the solo girl is probably the way to go, but in the event that she becomes unavailable, is it crazy to try to introduce our sweet girl into a bonded pair? I don't want to make her life difficult, I am just anxious to get her a friend now that we have the resources to care for more than just her.
Thank you in advance!

Copper prices rose 2.2 percent Thursday as positive news from China raised expectations that demand may strengthen for the industrial metal, which is used in everything from building materials to consumer electronics.
Investors were encouraged after China's central bank reported an unexpected increase in loans last month. The country is scheduled to release gross domestic product and industrial production data on Friday.
The new lending numbers could indicate that the first-quarter GDP numbers may be "fairly strong," according to a research report from Capital Economics.
That could ease concerns about a slowdown in China, which is the world's second-largest economy. The country is a huge importer of copper and other raw materials used in a vast number of industries.
Copper for May delivery rose 8.1 cents to end at $3.7205 per pound. The gain snapped a three-day losing streak but the price remains well below the high for the year of $3.98 per pound it reached Feb. 9.
Copper and other commodities also benefited from a report that the U.S. trade deficit shrank in February to $46 billion, which was a four-month low. Exports rose to an all-time high. The smaller trade deficit raised the possibility that the economy grew faster in the first quarter than previously expected.
Commodities also rose because the dollar weakened against other currencies. Since commodities are priced in dollars, a weaker dollar makes them more of a bargain for traders who use other currencies such as the euro.
Gold for June delivery rose $20.30 to finish at $1,680.60 an ounce and May silver rose $1, or 3.2 percent, to $32.525 an ounce. July platinum increased $21.70 to end at $1,606 per ounce and June palladium ended up $16.50, or 2.6 percent, at $653.10 an ounce.
Benchmark oil prices rose 94 cents to finish at $103.64 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Heating oil increased 5.14 cents to $3.1663 per gallon and gasoline futures rose 6.12 cents to $3.3567 per gallon. Natural gas fell 0.1 cent to $1.983 per 1,000 cubic feet.
In May agricultural contracts, wheat increased 11.25 cents to finish at $6.3925 per bushel, corn rose 1.5 cents to $6.375 per bushel and soybeans ended up 19 cents at $14.41 per bushel.

Oil prices fell Tuesday, breaking a streak of gains and raising questions about whether oil's recent rally is running out of steam.
Continue Reading Below
U.S. crude futures fell 57 cents, or 0.89%, to $63.73 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, breaking a five-session streak of gains. Brent, the global benchmark, fell $1.11, or 1.58%, to $69.15 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe, ending a six-session winning streak.
Tuesday's move lower was likely influenced by profit-taking after the recent string of gains, brokers and traders said. It comes as investors have become exuberant about oil's prospects, accumulating record high net bullish positions in both benchmarks. That kind of positioning can exacerbate selloffs, analysts said, if many investors get cold feet at the same time and rush to exit positions.
"If I were long, I'd be getting out here," said Michael Hiley, head of over-the-counter energy trading at LPS Futures LLC. "I tend to think this is pretty negative price action."
Oil's recent upswing has been fueled by tightening supplies after more than a year of cutbacks by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and 10 other major exporters, along with unexpectedly strong demand and other unanticipated supply disruptions. Brent on Monday closed above $70 a barrel for the first time since December 2014.
Oil prices may have been pulled lower Tuesday by a stock market swoon. The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged above 26000 for the first time Tuesday but then retreated.
Continue Reading Below
In addition, market participants are wondering whether weeks of declining oil inventories in the U.S. could be interrupted as refiners begin yearly maintenance, reducing their appetite for crude.
"I think the market is going to look to see if crude-oil inventories will rise over the next couple of weeks," said Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates.
And with higher prices comes more production, something that could weigh on the market. The U.S. Energy Information said Tuesday estimates that shale output will rise by 111,000 barrels a day in February, according to the monthly drilling productivity report released Tuesday. North Dakota oil gas officials said Tuesday they expect the state's output to break a record in the first half of the year.
Still, many analysts expect that investors will buy the dip, at least for now.
"The bullish story is still intact," said David Leben, director of commodity derivatives at BNP Paribas.
Analysts at Goldman Sachs said Tuesday that they expect new supply from the U.S. to come eventually, but said there are still "upside risks" to their forecasts for Brent prices at $62 a barrel and West Texas Intermediate prices at $57.50 a barrel.
"We expect that producers, even if more disciplined, will ultimately respond to this price signal," they wrote. But "the lag of this response, inventories nearing normalized levels, upside risks to our optimistic demand forecasts, and an OPEC cut that may overshoot, however, all create risks that OECD inventories fall below our expectations of five-year average levels"
Several banks have lifted their forecasts for crude prices this year. Bank of America Merrill Lynch now anticipates Brent prices to average $64 a barrel this year, compared with $56 previously. Société Générale is calling for Brent to average $62 a barrel, up from $58 previously, and said it expects U.S. prices to average $57.75, up from its previous forecast of $54 a barrel.
But the SocGen analysts cautioned that they believe prices are likely to tumble from current levels.
"Our view is that prices are overheated, and will correct lower," the analysts said. "We believe that the current situation, with strong uplift from fundamentals, non-fundamentals, and geopolitics all at the same time, is not sustainable. All three legs of the oil market stool have temporary factors built in right now, and these factors should ease."
Gasoline futures fell 1.11 cents, or 0.6%, to $1.8384 a gallon. Diesel futures fell 2.16 cents, or 1.04%, to $2.0634 a gallon.

Finance: Planning for the once-mighty estate
Net worth might be down, but there are opportunities to protect inheritance for next generation
- Barbara Pinckney
- The Business Review
In a difficult economy, estate planning may be one of the first things to go.
People feel less wealthy, and may be more concerned about preserving their assets than about passing them on. Or they may believe the down market will put their estate under the taxable level—currently $1 million in New York and $3.5 million at the federal level—and therefore, they do not have to worry about it.
“But estate planning is a forward-thinking thing,” said JulieAnn Calareso, an estate attorney with Burke & Casserly P.C. in Albany. “It may be a good time to talk to your attorney or financial planner about strategies.”
Experts say this may, in fact, be an ideal and inexpensive time to transfer assets. There are opportunities to be had in an environment like this, when asset values are depressed and interest rates are low. Taking advantage of those opportunities can allow people to safeguard their wealth now while protecting those inheriting their stocks, real estate or family businesses in the near or distant future.
Philip Toffel, managing director of Sage Hill Advisory & Management in Albany, said he counsels clients to first evaluate their net worth and determine how much they need to live comfortably. That amount should be invested conservatively, to protect the individual or couple’s financial independence.
“That should be square one,” he said.
Tim Casserly, a partner in Burke & Casserly, said conservative investors may want to consider a Roth IRA. With a Roth account, taxes are paid immediately as opposed to when funds are withdrawn—as is the case with a 401(k).
“So, with the value of your IRA down in this market, you will pay less taxes,” Casserly said.

As a long term solution, in the interest of the children, buying out a small but adequately sized shelter is the answer.
The trustees have identified a property not far from the present location, wherein the total cost comes to Rs 40 lacs, (see following slides for map & cost structure)
The trust presently has Rs 15 lacs which can be spared for this purpose,leaving a gap of Rs 25 lacs, which needs to be bridged
In the context of non availability of institutional funding & limited ability of the Trust, following options appear viable.
1. Direct grant to the trust by individuals/other trusts/companies or other organizations.
2. Buying of the property by another trust/organization/individual & letting the premises on long lease , say 25 years
3. Offering guarantee for the loan to any other organization, for loan to the Trust. Trust has the ability to repay @Rs 15000 per month (which is the rent, it is paying currently)
Other solutions are also welcome
• The trust has exemption under Income Tax act & contributions to the trust are eligible for deduction under section 80G, of Income Tax act.
• We interact closely with the Child Welfare Committee of the Govt of Karnataka and their inputs are taken with regard to maintenance of records etc
• The accounts of the trust are audited on a monthly basis by an independent professional firm.
• Regular updates are sent to the key donors & on request to anyone.
• Donors are encouraged to visit the premises & get a first hand feel of the activities and to interact with the children.

Narrated by Sebastian York
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ½ What a great friends to lovers story! Chase and Josie are wonderful together. Fun banter, great chemistry and I felt the sincerity between them that only happens between truly good friends. I love that he is a good guy who has a good heart. Josie’s cookbook recipes were great - they cracked me up.
There were a few sigh worthy moments and a major one... that totally brought a huge grin to my face! Sebastian York did a great job narrating. This book was a win for me!
The #1 New York Times Bestseller!
I’ve been told I have quite a gift.
Hey, I don’t just mean in my pants. I’ve got a big brain too, and a huge heart of gold. And I like to use all my gifts to the fullest, the package included. Life is smooth sailing....
Until I find myself stuck between a rock and a sexy roommate, which makes for one very hard…place.
Because scoring an apartment in this city is harder than finding true love. So even if I have to shack up with my buddy’s smoking hot and incredibly amazing little sister, a man’s got to do what a man’s got to do.
I can resist Josie. I’m disciplined, I’m focused, and I keep my hands to myself, even in the mere five-hundred square feet we share. Until the one night she insists on sliding under the covers with me. It’ll help her sleep after what happened that day, she says.
Spoiler—neither one of us sleeps.
Did I mention she’s also one of my best friends? That she’s brilliant, beautiful and a total firecracker? Guess that makes her the full package too.
What’s a man stuck in a hard place to do?

Caramelized Onions^ - Lora Brody (R T)- crockpot -- 2 pts
Recipe By :Lora Brody, Plugged In
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Crockpot Soups And Stews
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 Lb Sweet Onions -- Note 1
1/4 C Butter -- Note 2
10 Oz Chicken Broth -- Note 3
Note 1: Vidalia or other sweet onions (approx 2 1/2 lbs), 3 - 4" in diameter, stem and root ends removed, peeled and left whole
Note 2: Original recipe used 1/2 C (1 stick) butter or margarine
Note 3: Original recipe used one 10 oz can chicken or vegetable broth
Place the onions, butter and broth in a crock pot and cook on low 12-24 hours until the onions are deep golden brown and very soft. Different crock pots will take different amounts of time. it’s almost impossible to overcook this, so go for the deepest brown. Use the onions and liquid to flavor soup, stock, and stews.
They make a wonderful addition to risotto, a perfect pasta sauce, and the world’s best pizza topping (drain off the liquid first).
I left in some of the butter so it would give the onions a more full, rich flavor.
These are so easy to caramelize this way.

Mary, daughter of King Stephen, became abbess here (of Romsey) about 1160, and it was her uncle, Henry de Blois, Bishop of Winchester (1129-71), who was probably the builder of the greater part of Romsey Abbey as it now stands. Abbess Mary in 1160 left her monastery to become the wife of Matthew, son of Theodoric, Earl of Flanders. By him she had two daughters, but was afterwards separated from her husband. According to Matthew Paris this separation was brought about by the censure of the Church, and she returned in penitence to Romsey.
The Victorian writer of the County History was being a tad on the coy side in his description of Mary’s departure from Romsey. She was abducted by her distant cousin Matthew who was also a cousin of Henry II. She’d been a nun for over a decade, and had been the abbess since 1155, when her brother, William of Boulogne, died. He’d been married to Isabella de Warenne who ended up married to Henry II’s illegitimate half-brother Hamlyn. Unfortunately Mary’s other brother Eustace was also dead. This meant that the abbess became a very wealthy countess and it’s a well-known fact that being an unmarried countess makes you fair game even, apparently, if you’re living a cloistered life at the time.
Pope Alexander III was not amused. Letters were exchanged. Meanwhile Matthew became the Count of Boulogne and two daughters, Ida and Mathilde, were born from the union. Mary was eventually able to return to the monastic life when the Catholic Church annulled her marriage.
Once again history does not provide us with the complete truth of proceedings let alone Mary’s view of events and it certainly doesn’t provide us with a picture of the unfortunate abbess for which reason this post has an image of Mary’s father King Stephen. Mary’s mother was Mathilde of Boulogne from when the title that caused all the problems originated.

text: A recent architectural competition, the results of which the public will be able to see soon, was unprecedented for two reasons. First, it was launched by a private construction company and, second, it was for a study on a group of residences and shops in the area of Metaxourgeio. Housing complexes are rarely the object of a competition for tender in Greece. The competition was launched by the GEK SA construction company and Domes architectural magazine. The 102 studies that were produced will go on display at the new wing of the Benaki Museum on Pireos Street for four days, Wednesday to September 24, in an exhibition jointly organized by GEK, Domes and the museum’s Archives of Modern Greek Architecture. The exhibition coincides with the recent announcement that the project that won third place will be the one to be implemented instead of the one that came in first. The company apparently preferred to use the study by Georgia Daskalaki and Ioannis Papadopoulos, though Katerina Tsigarida was the architect to win first place. The exhibition will feature a wide range of projects, from modern realistic plans to radical compositions which project ideas for a future life in the city center. About 400 boards of sketches and 100 models are to go on display. Benaki New Wing, 138 Pireos & Andronikou, tel 210.345.3111.


First the good news: the hike in new infections that we saw in recent days, is slowing down. Official figures supplied by the health institute Sciensano are talking of 1,352 new cases per day between 12 and 18 July, a rise of 27 percent on the week. Each day, almost 72,000 tests are being carried out, with 2,1 percent testing positive. This being said, the reproduction number stands at 1.24. This means that the pandemic is growing, as 100 new cases trigger 124 cases.
The bad news is that the number of hospital admissions is un the up, and fast. The rolling average for daily hospital admissions between 15 and 21 July was 27, which is a 57 percent rise on the week. It is especially younger people ending up in hospital: 68 percent is younger than 60. One third of those ending up in hospital are in their forties or fifties, one in four are aged between 20 and 40 - last spring, the latter accounted for only 10 percent of new admissions. Virologist Steven Van Gucht of Sciensano says that hospital admissions are especially up in Brussels, probably because the vaccination rate is lower in the capital.
On 13 and 17 July, no fatalities were reported as a result of Covid-19. The daily average for the past week stands at 1 per day.
Meanwhile, the vaccination campaign is cruising. Last Tuesday, almost 83 percent of the adult population in Belgium had received at least one jab. If you take into account the whole population, this is just short of 68 percent.


Machinist Mark Eriks started work at Fermilab in January 1981. He joined the laboratory’s machine shop and has since contributed to the production of machine components for the laboratory’s Technical Division.
Now Eriks is retiring. His last day at the lab is March 16.
“Mark has always been a pride-oriented machinist, in that everything he machines has to be perfect,” said Gary Markiewicz, who oversees machine shop operations. “His skill level has always been top-notch.”
Eriks became foreman for the main machine shop, in the Village, in 2016. In that position, he often interacted in person with customers.
“Since becoming foreman, he’s taken his pride to another level, providing excellent customer service with a smile,” Markiewicz said.
Eriks is did more than deliver friendly customer service and perfectly machined parts. He also injected fun into the workplace. Once, after decades of sporting a beard, he shaved it. It was right after he turned 40.
“I came to work the next day. Nobody recognized me, not even my friends,” Eriks said. He went to the different shops making up stories about who he was. He even applied for a job.
Once he retires, Eriks plans to continue raising cattle, supplying family and friends with beef. He will also continue to make hot salsa, created from garden vegetables with lots of peppers, which he occasionally brought to work.
“Cucumber is the special ingredient,” Eriks said. “I would also bring in buckets of extra cukes and tomatoes.”
A cookout for Eriks, to be held in the Village machine shop, will be announced after the weather warms.


Thank you Indy for good investigative reporting on yet another mishandling of mentally ill folks in the State of NC. It seems clear that the internal investigation did not start until the Indy started asking questions. Where does the buck stop? Why are not the top mental health folks at DPS held accountable for the years of abuse of the mentally ill and disabled in the NC prison system. Shame on them. Maybe they will get promotions like the previous warden at Central Prison when abuses were exposed. That seems to be how this department handles problems with the higher ups.

Summer camp in Silicon Valley is quite far removed from the cliches of roasting marshmallows, racing canoes and singing “Kumbaya” around the campfire. Camp around here is more along the lines of 3D printing, nanotechnology and forensics.
Foothill College just wrapped up a packed four-week STEM Summer Camp that saw the campus turn into a living laboratory for hundreds of Bay Area high school and middle school students to learn topics related to science, technology, engineering and math.
The camp saw overwhelming participation from students in the Cupertino Union and Fremont Union High school districts, with an estimated 40 percent of high school participants coming from Lynbrook, according to college officials.
The camp concluded July 24. Camp sessions were taught and facilitated by Foothill College faculty.
Approximately 480 camp participants enrolled for four-week sessions and got hands-on lessons Monday through Thursday in a selected course. Depending on the week, sessions included robotics, biomedical engineer, 3D printing, biotech, forensics, astronomy, nanotechnology, green chemistry, app building, radio building, video game design, health and amusement park physics.
“STEM Summer Camp is definitely geared at getting both high schoolers and middle schoolers interested in science and engineering. We have several different sections that give them hands-on experiences with different areas of science,” said Amanda Pitts, camp co-coordinator and fulltime chemistry instructor at Foothill College. “It’s giving kids the chance to do hands-on activities outside their typical high school classrooms.”
The camp was free to attend and was funded through private donations. Students also received a free daily lunch.
Students were recruited from all around the region with an aim to bring in youth traditionally underrepresented in STEM fields, including girls. Each camp session lasted from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Most of the sessions skewed toward project-based learning with only a brief amount of time devoted to lecture.
“We are trying to reach kids who want to have fun with science and their hands-on experiences,” said Oxana Pantchenko, STEM camp coordinator.
In Understanding Your Health, students got lessons in finding pressure points and sensory receptors on their skin. Students also worked to assemble a replica skeleton and received a visit from an EMT. The camp concluded on July 24 with the dissection of a sheep brain.
“Our goal is to teach in a way that is inclusive and not just for science people,” said Hilary Benton, instructor for Understanding your Health. “We’ve had a really enthusiastic group. Everyone is participating and asking questions.” In Green Chemistry, students learned how to make environmentally sustainable versions of common products like soap and paint.
“The focus has been on trying to develop products in such a way to prevent waste. The focus was on what is already being done and how can we make it in a more natural way,” said Mary Holland, chemistry instructor.
“It’s surprising how much I’ve learned,” added Neil Balch, an 11-year-old camper from Mountain View who enrolled in both robotics and 3D printing in consecutive weeks.
The camp is in its second year and there are tentative plans already in the works for next year, which could include growing the camp and bringing in more middle school students.

Predicting Outcome after Epidural Steroid Injection
Abstract & Commentary
By Michael Rubin, MD, Professor of Clinical Neurology, Weill Cornell Medical College. Dr. Rubin reports no financial relationships relevant to this field of study.
Synopsis: Response to treatment of unilateral lumbar radiculopathy can be predicted by an abnormal needle EMG in the appropriate root distribution.
Source: Annaswamy TM, et al. Needle electromyography predicts outcome after lumbar epidural steroid injection. Muscle Nerve 2011: 10 OCT 2011 11:07AM EST | DOI:10.1002/mus.22320
Can needle electromyography (EMG) be used as an independent predictor of beneficial outcome to epidural steroid injection in patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy? To address this question, 89 patients with lumbosacral radiculopathy, 79 men and 10 women, were consecutively enrolled in this hospital-based, outpatient, prospective study. Lumbosacral radiculopathy was defined as either: (A) radiating pain in an L4, L5, or S1 nerve root distribution, (B) motor, sensory, or deep tendon reflex abnormalities on neurological examination in an L4, L5, or S1 nerve root distribution, or (C) magnetic resonance imaging evidence of L4, L5, or S1 nerve root impingement. Exclusionary criteria included pregnancy, anticoagulation, allergy to steroids or bupivicaine, homelessness, and the inability to travel to appointments or converse in English. All patients underwent intralaminar steroid and bupivicaine injection under fluoroscopic guidance, with needle placement confirmed using contrast dye. The primary objective was to determine if an abnormal EMG, indicative of lumbosacral radiculopathy and defined as positive waves or fibrillation potentials in a myotomal distribution, predicted pain relief from epidural steroid injection. Secondary objectives assessed whether other factors were predictive of pain relief following epidural steroid injection, including age, sex, smoking history, work status, body mass index, self-rating pain disability questionnaires encompassing psychosocial and functional disability sub-scores, and alcohol use. Statistical analysis included post-hoc Tukey multiple comparisons and simple linear regression.
Of 89 enrollees, 19 dropped out due to non-compliance (n = 11), refusal to continue or discovery of alternate diagnosis (n = 3 each), and spontaneous improvement or relocation to another facility (n = 1 each). All enrollees fulfilled either the history or examination criteria for lumbosacral radiculopathy, or both. MRI was never the sole criteria for study inclusion. EMG data were available and complete for 80 subjects, of which 42 were indicative of lumbosacral radiculopathy, 25 were normal, and 13 were equivocal. Of these 80, a first epidural steroid injection was performed on 78, and a second was performed on 43, either before or after a follow-up visit that occurred, on average, 126 days later. Significantly greater improvement was found in the abnormal EMG group, compared to the normal EMG group, in patient disability pain questionnaire scores, in both its psychosocial and functional sub-scores, and in the numerical rating pain scale. Abnormal needle EMG findings of lumbosacral radiculopathy is an independent predictor of and can identify those patients more likely to benefit from epidural steroid injection.
Is interlaminar epidural injection, depositing steroids in the posterior epidural space, or transforaminal epidural injection, depositing steroids in the anterior epidural space, the favored route for unilateral radicular pain? Usually, half the dose of steroid is used in the latter method compared to the former. Among 64 chronic radiculopathy patients treated in a randomized, prospective study, both methods were equally efficacious, 39% and 38% respectively, in providing significant improvement over a 6-month period, as measured by visual analog scale pain scores and functional capacity using the Owestry scale.1 Apparently, epidural injection may work from either approach.
