Don't forget the new series of The Detectorists tonight at 10pm. The last series was hilarious and is the closest thing you'll get to a model railway club sitcom. The parallels are many. I sit there laughing out loud, which is unusual and Mrs. F. rolls her eyes and makes Dandy Nicholls type comments. If you've been in a club then you'll recognise everyone here.

Bees are responsible for pollinating about a third of the world’s food supply, but the honey bee population has declined rapidly over the past twenty years, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency. .
A local group called the Central Coast Beekepers Alliance SLO works to help the honey bee population.
“So this is my apiary or my apiary, this is the professional term for where we keep bees,” said Erin Holden, president of the Central Coast Beekeepers Alliance SLO. She takes care of more than twenty different bee colonies.
Holden’s group hopes to encourage people to get into beekeeping, and the group also provides resources for people to remove beehives from their homes without killing the bees.
“Commercial beekeepers are the ones who really help pollinate our food sources,” Holden said. “For a backyard beekeeper, you probably don’t have a big impact in the food industry, but the little person keeps the industry going.”
According to a report from the Bee Informed Partnership, commercial beekeepers in California reported a 30% loss of their colonies in 2020.
Holden said there are several reasons bees struggle: one is the near-constant state of drought that California faces, with a reduction in water affecting the plants that bees use to. collect the nectar. Another growing threat is the Varroa mite, a pest that ravages bee colonies around the world.
“The biggest threat to our bees at this point is the Varroa mite,” Holden said. “It’s a tiny, tiny mite that feeds on every stage of the bee’s life. So whether it’s a larva, a nymph, or an adult bee.
Holden said the parasites feed on the fat of the bees and slowly weaken them. Mites can also transmit a virus called Deformed Wing Virus.
“Which can literally stop a bee from flying and scavenging for nectar,” Holden said. “So the Varroa mite is something that we as beekeepers have to come to grips with.”
Another problem in the bee world is that people destroy the hives that appear on their properties.
“If they’re way up in a tree and they’re not bothering anyone, I would just say leave them alone,” said Atascadero beekeeper Michael Lindsey.
If a beehive is in an area near your house that is too close for comfort and you call a company to remove it, but Lindsey said ask what method they are using to get rid of the beehive.
“They can come and spray a pesticide and it kills the bees,” Lindsey said. “Then the neighborhood bees like in a tree somewhere, they will come and loot this hive which has been sprayed with pesticides. Then they will take this pesticide into their hive, then it will kill these bees.”
There are several companies in SLO County that can remove a beehive, but Lindsey encourages the use of ones that gas the bees and try to relocate them instead of killing them. If you’ve noticed a beehive and want to walk around your house, Lindsey said, don’t wait too long to take care of it.
“Because if they stay for a long time, they’ll build a lot of combs, store a lot of honey,” Lindsey said. “There will be a lot of bees and it will be a much bigger project.”
Holden said it was not a good idea to try and remove a hive without professional help, especially since some bee hives can be Africanized bees, also known as ‘”Killer bees”.
“They are very aggressive. So you’ll have a lot of bees coming up to sting you, ”Holden said. “They’ll chase you longer if you try to get away from them, they’re much more persistent, and they’ll travel further to attack you.”
Holden said that while honey bees sting in self-defense, killer bees mobilize as an entire colony if their hive is attacked. But while their temperament has earned them a bad reputation, Africanized bees perform a useful function, as they also pollinate plants.
If a bee walks into your car or buzzes around you in public, Holden said to stay calm and wait for the bee to fly away.
“Can I kill any insect?” They all have a purpose, ”Holden said.
If you get stung, take out the sting as soon as you can. Lindsey said using something with a sharp edge, like a credit card, to scratch the sting should do the trick.
“The stinger on a bee, it’s barbed like a hook,” Lindsey said. “So when a stinger comes in, the beard holds it and the bee pulls away and it leaves that stinger in you with a bag of venom, and that bag of venom keeps pumping venom into you.
Lindsey said that despite unwanted bites or beehives appearing in the wrong places around your home, bees are the world’s smallest farm workers, pollinating 80 percent of crops grown in the United States.
Saving the bees, said Lindsey, means saving the food we enjoy.

Two Sharp carved phones, if you think it's more aesthetic!
Sharp thinks the two notches are better than one. Sharp Aquos R2 One of the most important features of the compact model is that it has two notched phones? High quality features for the middle class. Here are the details!
We've written a worldwide article about the 2018 model smartphones, especially the slots. From Android to iOS, we have seen many models of phones with notches. There were changes in the shape of the notch, some of which took the form of water droplets as in Oppo R17. But nobody wanted to put the second. So far.
Sharp seems to think that the double screen is more aesthetic than a notch. That's why the Dual-Notched phone – Sharp Aquos has announced the R2 Compact model. Sharp launches the Aquos R2 Compact – an 8-megapixel camera at the front and a second cut-screen model dedicated to the fingerprint reader.
You do not like what you like in terms of design, but it's designed to take full advantage of the technologies available to the small body. To this extent, it is desired to obtain the maximum benefit of a body.
Sharp Two-Ring Phone – What are the Features of the Sharp Aquos R2 Compact?
The respectable side of the phone is good – having the features of a high-class middle class phone. Display of 2.280 x 1.080 120Hz IGZO of 5.2 inches, Snapdragon 845 processor, 4 GB of RAM, rear camera of 22.6 megapixels f / 1.9, expandable storage of 64 GB. On the side of the battery, a battery of 2,500mAh is not really remarkable, but is enough for the small screen.
The R2 Compact will be available first in Japan in January 2019. No details have yet been shared on prices. However, we know that Sharp phones are rarely sold in overseas markets. Who knows, this model can be offered internationally.


When it comes to hard rock, the Scandinavians have always had a really good ear for a melody and chorus. Throughout the 90s when melodic rock and AOR was hugely unfashionable, the Swedes’ knack for delivering classic, big haired sounds continued unabated, and in metal terms, twenty first century heavy hitters like In Flames and Opeth have more than shown how once extreme subgenres can often benefit from a finely tuned melodic streak. What’s more, they’ve achieved this with so much more style than their US counterparts.
The same can be said for Danish band Taboo. A new arrival on the rock scene for 2022, but featuring a couple of old faces, the musical project teams H.E.R.O vocalist Christoffer Stjerne and Pretty Maids guitarist Ken Hammer, with the intent to do something a little different from their day jobs. Their debut album proudly boasts the kind of huge chorus hooks you’ve come to know from Pretty Maids, but trades in some of their big haired, 80s cheese and bombast for something not only with a bigger crunch in places, but also a slight electronica twist.
The main thrust of the band’s crossover sound is really obvious during the opener ‘Flames’ with its droning intro and heavily treated guitar. Kicking into the verse, a crunchy guitar riff hints at the heavier end of the melodic rock scale, whilst a pulsing keyboard lends a sound that’s rather more of the alternative persuasion. Hitting the chorus, with Christoffer reaching for a few higher, lighter notes, an AOR flourish battles against the crunch, and the end sound – always pulling in both directions – is terrific. Ken is obviously relishing the moments when he gets to wield a heavier groove, and when it comes to the middle eight where synth strings and mournful guitars usher in a more forlorn vocal, Taboo show an even greater range. Very much reaching for bigger and better things, ‘Bleeding’ opens with a driving metal edged riff that would suit Cleanbreak, but then does a massive u-turn by presenting muted guitar parts against a deep bass, and an emo-ish vocal really taps into a semi-alternative sound. Very briefly, there are echoes of The Rasmus and their light goth-pop, but a sledgehammer riff driving into the chorus sets Taboo on a great path where a massive crunch and AOR hook once again challenge each other for dominance, but with neither truly winning out, the heavy melodic rock sound really shows how great this duo can be. By the time the chorus makes its last appearance, loaded with multi-layered harmonies, it feels like something you’ve known forever.
‘Demons’ crashes forth with one of the album’s heaviest riffs, and places that atop a few extra layers from the guitar, a grinding bass and curly vocal. It’s very much a natural extension of the previous tracks, but a bridge section featuring soundtrack like keys and some unexpected pneumatic rhythms appear to shift everything towards light industrial without losing sight of a massive melodic hook, before ‘Into The Sun’ shares a big, emotive vocal that sounds more in tune with a lot of Euro pop, and contrasts that with a wall of sound chorus where soaring voices are underscored by ringing guitar sounds, and a clean layer of keys. If not for the very old fashioned lead guitar break, there’s something here that could easily be retooled for a rock act at Eurovision – not a criticism – such is the focus on a direct and natural hook. Not even Taboo can keep up the big crunch forever – great at that as they are – and ‘See You Again’ ventures even further into a world of meaty pop, where Christoffer sounds as if he’s been absorbing old Savage Garden records on the opening verse, before taking a brilliant pop influence into something more in tune with Taboo’s main interests. By the second chorus, the crunch very much returns, but more than ever here, there’s a feeling of a great pop/chart hit being smothered by too many rock interests. Even so, the melodies are very strong, and the chorus especially manages to deliver something hugely infectious.
Finally opting for something more of a pop/rock persuasion, the spacious feel of ‘Daydream’ allows for a few acoustic flourishes and a slower pace places Christoffer’s voice at the fore and he uses it in a way that isn’t afraid to tap into the melody’s poppier feel, and there are even a couple of moments that might remind some of Max Martin’s punchy style back in the 90s. It’s one of those tracks that, whichever way you approach it, manages to highlight Taboo’s brilliant potential, and with Hammer dropping in one of the album’s best lead breaks – a few bars of very 80s emoting – it definitely takes a place as a highlight. ‘Learning To Breathe’, meanwhile, doesn’t sound like a standout at first due to an unsure verse, but arriving at a chorus that delivers a huge emo-influenced melody drawing from the 90s and bands like Neve, and combining that with a few huge whoahs on loan from Fall Out Boy and Thirty Seconds To Mars, it eventually blossoms into a neo-anthemic rocker that feels almost timeless. Like a lot of those bands that got tagged “modern rock” in the late 90s and early 00’s, there’s a great melodic rock influence running through the centre, even if its not melodic rock as the purists would have it.
Overall, in lots of ways, Taboo’s core sound has a presence and feel that isn’t so far removed from label-mates Ardours with its heavy keys and occasionally darker sound. If anything, though, these Danish lads do a much smarter job, and in never shying away from the kind of huge chorus hooks they could’ve taken to their other bands, there’s still a melodic edge that’s waiting to soar. At their best, there are a few songs here that really stick. With all that said, Taboo (the band or album) won’t necessarily make much of a connection with the old school rock fans who remain attracted to Frontiers Records for Journey and Foreigner style, classic AOR fare. Some of them will certainly find a few of the chunkier riffs combined with the heavier electronica far too “modern”. Those who “get” this album, though, will absolutely love it. Between riffs that sound both fresh and retro at the same time (albeit a very different kind of retro in comparison to Frontiers’ usual stock), this debut is one of the year’s most welcome surprises.

Abstract: Throughout its colonial history, Calcutta had been a Hindu-majority city in the heart of a Muslim-majority province. Until the mid-twentieth century, despite bitter rivalry, the city’s Hindu and Muslim populations inhabited shared spaces, even in areas populated chiefly by members of one community. In such localities, there were scattered pockets where people of the other community resided, creating a complex inter-communal sharing of neighbourhoods, infrastructures, and resources. Ghettos did not manifest to the extent they do today. However, the city’s character began to transform slowly in the interwar decades due to the twin effects of urban renewal and communal mobilization, culminating in an utter territorial defeat of Muslims in the mid-twentieth century. One of the outcomes of this was ghetto formation in the city’s margins. While ghettoization is a violent process, ghettos are also kept in place through violence.
This talk looks at how the police as an apparatus of public order ‘read’ the city as a communally divided territory in moments of civil unrest. It also demonstrates how the cop–mob dialectic redrew, reinforced, and refunctioned the internal boundaries of the city. In this negotiation between the police and the mob, the street emerged both as a territory and as a zoning device. At the same time, the street (and the spatial order of the city) also shaped the tactics and the outcome of this urban warfare. In this light, I examine the police evidence of a series of communal occurrences spanning the first half of the twentieth century—including a communal civil war in 1946. In doing so, I track social infrastructures that developed around these riots and various forms of mass politics that further enforced the territorial reordering of Calcutta in the first half of the century. Finally, the chapter analyses the implications of these zoning exercises for the emergence of an internally segregated city in the post-colonial period. The discussion that follows examines the street and the ghetto as two distinct configurations of territory that frame the spatial reconfigurations of this period.

Sewer service charge rates in the Joint Outfall System (JOS) have always been kept at a minimum, especially during years of tough economic conditions. However, as costs continue to rise due to inflation and regulatory requirements imposed by state and federal authorities and as we position ourselves for the future, the JOS Districts are now proposing a service charge rate increase.

What composting is, how you can get started, and why you should care.
What is composting?
Composting is allowing biodegradable materials to rot and be reused in their rotten state. You will often see this in the case of food scraps used as fertilizer rather than purchasing fertilizer from the store. Composting takes items that would have normally been thrown away in the trash, causing more methane (a greenhouse gas.)
There are two types of composting- backyard and industrial composting. When you see compostable plastic packaging or plates/cutlery those are typically industrial compostable only. Items such as food scraps, brown paper bags/egg cartons, leaves, and plant material are backyard compostable and can be composted in a reasonable amount of time in a non-industrial facility.
It is important to note that you should not compost meat as the amount of time it takes to break down can cause a terrible smell and pests (especially rats if you are in Baltimore.)
This website has a really great list of what can and can not be composted.
Why is composting important?
Composting helps the environment and can save you money if you have a garden. Compost helps the environment by directly reducing the amount of methane emissions due to rotting organic materials in landfills and by carbon sequestration by converting carbon to soil carbon. Throwing valuable compostable items in the trash not only wastes the possible compost, but also wastes the food, water, and energy needed to create that item. Composting enables you to use the items you would normally throw away.
If you are making your own fertilizer you also have the added benefit of knowing what is in your fertilizer and thus, know what you are feeling your plants and, if you are eating what you are growing, what you are eating. Even if you are not eating what you are growing, the fertilizer has the ability to contaminate local water sources and soil.
Project Drawdown has a useful and short article on why composting is valuable (with references) that you can see here.
What if I don’t have a garden/backyard/car?
Not everyone has a garden or the space in their backyard for a large compost. Here are some options with links for different people!
Small Bin options:
Drop off options: Baltimore city/surrounding area
- Farmer’s market drop off (If you are in Baltimore or can make it to the Saturday market you can drop them off. Here is an article talking about it.)
- Mom’s Organic Market drop off. This place is amazing. Bring your compost.
- Live in a large apartment building? This company works with you to bring composting to your whole building.
- Not in Baltimore? Use Litterless to find where to compost.
Come to you options: Baltimore city/surrounding area
- The compost crew (provides bin and liner.)
- Baltimore Compost Collective– Curtis Bay, Federal Hill, Riverside Park, and Locust Point neighborhoods
These options are not comprehensive but a quick search will enable you to find options in your area.

As you probably know, GM has been amping up excitement for its purported diesel VW Jetta-beater, the Cruze Diesel. While not an electrified vehicle, and some would say it’s not even “green,” it does qualify to be called a “clean diesel.”
And it otherwise does qualify as “alternative energy” transportation and offers strong competition to a Prius even without the electrification.
Some might also think a diesel genset would be worthwhile for the Volt, not that that is likely to happen, but you never know.
We’ve already seen stories from General Motors that its Cruze Diesel intended to take market share from Volkswagen has the goods when it comes to beating the 46 mpg highway rating the EPA gives the Cruze.
On Saturday, an independent road trip was documented by GM Inside News effectively saying more of the same: Alex Villani wrote a personal and detailed account of an out-and-back road trip from New Jersey to Ohio with the more-then-$25,000 Cruze that saw 53.6 mpg on average and above 56 mpg on the return trip.
The EPA estimates the 15.6 gallon tank should allow for 717 miles, but Villani went 99 more than that at 816.
“So what does this mean? It means to us that the Cruze diesel can walk the walk, proving that it can pull down considerably higher fuel economy numbers than the ones that the EPA published,” wrote Villani. “It means that Volkswagen no longer has the market cornered when it comes to affordable diesel options.”
He said that also considering the Cruze incorporates lessons learned in the Cruze Eco, and though it’s much pricier than entry level Cruzes, it comes packed with nearly every option.
Outwardly, the car appears much like any Cruze except for badging. Under the hood, it has a 2.0-liter turbo diesel – the same displacement of a Jetta TDI.
Villani said he did not resort to hypermiling tricks, nor did he shed any weight that came standard in order to get his travel distance and mileage.
Average speeds were legal, and the trip did include up and down grades, construction traffic, and stormy weather.
Source: U.S. EPA.
“Even though the car and I had to put up with both topographical and environmental hurdles, the Cruze managed to record a fantastic 52.6 miles per gallon!” Villani said of a first leg of his round trip journey to the Lords town Assembly Plant in Ohio. “Mind you, this was with moderate air conditioning use and doing anywhere between 55 and 62 miles per hour, as I found the 60-62 mph range produced the best numbers while maintaining speed up hills.”
His story finished with a hopeful note, having been satisfied the car is competitive.
“This could open the floodgates of acceptance for diesel engine technology at GM and make it something viable for the US market in more than one car,” wrote Villani. “This could be the start of something different for GM’s North American arm and something that could help separate GM’s entries versus the competition in their respective markets.”

The ‘Fed put’ – gone till there’s blood within the streets
Effectively, it’s taking place. Bitcoin (and different cryptocurrencies are sharply down, together with fairness markets in lots of superior economies.
And the Federal Reserve (the U.S. Central Financial institution) assertion and press convention on Wednesday didn’t point out any backing down from elevating rates of interest, perhaps as quickly because the March assembly.
The Fed’s stance pivot from ‘the financial system wants extra stimulus’ to ‘it’s time to begin tightening coverage’ got here on the finish of 2021 when Fed officers modified their view that 40-year excessive readings on client value inflation was attributable to transitory elements and can subside by itself.
Their new stance that prime inflation is everlasting and is what ensures tighter coverage. The Fed has already began decreasing how a lot it’s including to its steadiness sheet every month with one other discount at Wednesday’s assembly to buying a complete of US$30 billion in belongings in February 2022, from a excessive of US $120 billion in belongings being added to its steadiness sheet every month.
The Fed will possible finish these purchases altogether at its subsequent assembly, scheduled for March 15-16.
And is indicating that it’s going to increase rates of interest at that assembly too.
The market implied chance at present has a 100% probability of a March rate of interest hike.
The Federal Reserve can also be discussing the potential for beginning to scale back its bloated US$9 trillion steadiness sheet quickly after.
Two factors we need to deal with beneath – the Fed ‘put’ and the decline in bitcoin.
What’s a Fed ‘Put’?
The time period was first used within the Eighties when Alan Greenspan was Fed Chair. Investopedia (with our bolding added) defines it as:
Greenspan put was the moniker given to the insurance policies carried out by Alan Greenspan throughout his tenure as Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair.
The Greenspan-led Fed was extraordinarily proactive in halting extreme inventory market declines, performing as a type of insurance coverage in opposition to losses, just like an everyday put choice
… A historic overview of the value motion after every occasion of the Greenspan put lends credence to the market perception that the Fed would proceed to back-stop the inventory markets sooner or later.
Since Greenspan, each Fed Chair has exercised their very own model of what has now been coined the ‘Fed put’.
This ‘put’ jargon means the Fed has backed off from tightening coverage when fairness markets decline considerably.
The Fed (and different central banks) care about fairness markets as a result of they’re a number one indicator of financial exercise. Recessions and recessions result in layoffs and slack in labour markets affiliate with sharp declines.
And keep in mind the Fed has a twin mandate of ‘value stability and most sustainable employment’.
January 2022’s large change is that the Fed put has been cancelled as a result of central banks assume stopping inflation issues greater than preserving inventory markets close to all time highs.
The message that the Fed’s focus is on bringing down the excessive inflation numbers got here by this week’s assembly assertion. Additionally, fairness markets continued to say no as did bitcoin.
We’re nonetheless skeptical that the ‘Fed pivot’ to tighter coverage sooner is a one-way pivot and that the Fed won’t back-track.
The Fed will get scarred if shares fall one other 10%, if that’s the case it won’t tighten coverage as rapidly because the markets at present anticipate.
Bear in mind all that authorities debt nonetheless exists; that the curiosity cost should be paid on that debt, and better rates of interest imply greater funds.
There’s additionally the housing market to think about, sure it could be bloated however a housing crash just isn’t one thing the US administration would be thankful for heading into mid-term elections.
So, in our view, the ‘Fed put’ just isn’t over ceaselessly as a result of we anticipate central banks will flinch!
The Bitcoin Collapse
Now let’s discuss concerning the decline in Bitcoin.
Sure, fairness markets are down, with the S&P 500 near 10% of its highs, and the NASDAQ down 15%. Nevertheless, Bitcoin is down nearly 50% off its highs as of the time of writing.
The importance of that is that that is the sixth time because the finish of 2017 that Bitcoin has declined greater than 40%.
Sure, that’s proper, six occasions in simply over 4 years. And keep in mind a 50% decline takes a 100% acquire to place it again on the identical place it began.
Over this identical interval, the biggest decline within the S&P 500 was 34% firstly of the Covid disaster. The second largest decline was 20% on the finish of 2018.
And gold’s largest decline over this time interval was 19% after reaching its all-time excessive in August 2020.
Bitcoin has been touted as a gold different in a portfolio.
Nevertheless, two causes this doesn’t maintain are that Bitcoin doesn’t act as a portfolio diversifier the identical method that gold does.
Which means that Bitcoin and fairness markets have each moved considerably down. Additionally, Bitcoin has magnified the decline of the fairness markets.
Gold alternatively has had a small enhance because the starting of the yr.
The second challenge is the sheer volatility of Bitcoin. Six declines of greater than 40% in 4 years is kind of a hypothesis!
Sure, the gold value has had the height to trough declines over bear cycle durations. Nevertheless, over 40% declines have occurred 4 occasions within the final 50 years. That is fairly the distinction in frequency to make sure!
From The Buying and selling Desk
The FOMC assembly befell yesterday on the again of report US inflation which reached 7% in December, its highest degree in 40 years.
There was a lot anticipation to this assembly with some market commentators suggesting the Fed could wrap up its asset purchases earlier and lift charges ahead of was signalled in December.
Nevertheless, Powell set the stage with charge hikes to begin in March regardless that he described present inflation as ‘barely worse’ than in December.
Powell lastly clarified stating ‘The Committee is of the thoughts to boost the federal funds charge on the March assembly’.
In response to this, the bond yields popped, with the ten 12 months hitting 1.85% and gold dropped $30 to offer again a few of its latest features.
Equities bought off too including to the present volatility and the woeful begin to 2022 that has the S&P down nearly 9% yr to this point whereas the Nasdaq has slumped by 13%.
There was some constructive information on the gold entrance.
Goldman Sachs just lately raised its 12-month forecast for gold to $2150, up from its earlier goal of $2000.
Within the report printed final week, it states“At this time, the worldwide growth-inflation combine is markedly completely different.
Whereas there may be not but discuss of recession, our economists forecast a fabric deceleration in U.S. development, whereas the approaching prospect of a brand new mountain climbing cycle is resulting in a risk-off setting throughout long-duration asset lessons,” the analysts.
“For traders in search of a solution to hedge their portfolios from dangers of a growth-slowdown and falling valuations, we consider an extended gold place can be more practical within the present macro setting.”
As well as and one thing to regulate, Gold ETF’s are beginning to appeal to massive inflows too, with establishments shifting again into gold.
Over the past 5 days, 37 Tons of Gold inflows have gone into the biggest Gold ETF – GLD.
These inflows have been lacking since 2020 and that is actually what is required to drive gold greater from right here and transfer it out of its lengthy consolidation interval it has been in.

Good morning everyone, and welcome to Tangible Movement’s first ever Wellness Wednesday! Wellness is one of the topics I am most excited to write about, as it is rich both in content and in universal importance. According to the World Health Organization, the term ‘wellness’ refers to “...a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. In other words, wellness is an ongoing journey that affects all areas of an individual. Because today marks the premiere of Wellness Wednesday, I thought it would be beneficial to provide an introduction to the wellness - specifically, its eight different dimensions. Each of these categories are related and of equal importance. By gaining an understanding of each of the eight dimensions, one can achieve peak wellness.
1. EMOTIONAL WELLNESS
Emotional wellness is concerned with gaining an understanding of one’s feelings. A person with a high level of emotional wellness will be able to successfully handle change, disappointment, and hard times. Some topics within the realm of emotional wellness are self-care, setting priorities, getting quality sleep, building relationships, and coping with grief. According to the National Institutes of Health, people who are emotionally well “have fewer negative emotions and are able to bounce back from difficulties faster.” They are also “able to hold onto positive emotions longer and appreciate the good times”.
2. ENVIRONMENTAL WELLNESS
Environmental wellness considers living a life in harmony with nature. It encourages us to be respectful of our surroundings and to take actions to protect them. The best way to improve environmental wellness is simply to become more aware! Some steps to take to increase your environmental wellness are to volunteer, compost, conserve water and energy, recycle, and research! Environmental wellness is important because it leads to a more balanced lifestyle and makes real change in the world. A great way to get started on this journey is to calculate your current impact on the environment, and try to reduce it!
This site will tell you how many Earths we would need if everyone had the same lifestyle as you, and what your personal “overshoot day” (the point at which resource consumption exceeds resource regeneration) is: http://www.footprintcalculator.org/.
3. FINANCIAL WELLNESS
Financial wellness is the ability to successfully manage expenses and avoid excessive money-related anxiety. According to the 2017 Stress in America Survey, 62% of Americans have reported that money is a significant source of stress in their lives. Having strong financial wellness helps decrease this economic stress, which improves health. Financial wellness initiatives include debt management, retirement preparedness, budgeting, and more! Financial Finesse describes financial wellness as “a state of well-being where an individual has achieved minimal financial stress, established a strong financial foundation, and created an ongoing plan to help reach future financial goals”. The goal of a financially well America is to create a generation of stable individuals who have the capacity to withstand any economic changes in the country.
4. INTELLECTUAL WELLNESS
The term “intellectual wellness” refers to being constantly challenged and stimulated mentally. Having a high level of intellectual wellness is important because it motivates and inspires an individual to develop an understanding of themself and the relationship they have to their surroundings. Ways to improve intellectual wellness include becoming academically and culturally involved, finding and partaking in hobbies, being active in one’s community, traveling, and exploring the arts! People who are very intellectually well are more likely to have stronger problem solving, critical thinking, logical, and creative skills!
5. OCCUPATIONAL WELLNESS
Occupational wellness delves into the relationship that one has with their work. Having a higher level of occupational wellness increases personal satisfaction by improving the attitude that one has towards their career. In 2013, Forbes magazine reported that “work is more often a source of frustration than fulfillment for nearly 90% of the world’s workers.” Finding a career that suits you is vital because working takes up the majority of your time during the week, so the way that you feel about it will contribute to your overall well-being. Some suggestions to begin the journey towards occupational wellness are to reflect on your skillset and what you enjoy, set realistic career goals, and use volunteering and interning as an opportunity to explore different career choices in the professional world.
6. PHYSICAL WELLNESS
Physical wellness is focused on keeping the body in top condition so that it can function as effectively as possible. Elements of physical wellness include nutrition, activity, and overall healthy lifestyle. Steps to take on the path towards physical wellness include engaging in daily exercise, practicing portion control, consuming healthy meals, and getting 7-9 hours of sleep each night. Someone who has a high level of physical wellness will have a decreased risk of illness, a nutrient-rich diet, an active lifestyle, and a nurtured body. The benefits of physical wellness include enhanced self-esteem and self-control in addition to sharpened thinking and learning abilities. It is important to note that there is a direct relationship between physical and mental health.
7. SOCIAL WELLNESS
Social wellness deals with the relationships and connections that exist in our personal lives. Having a strong sense of social wellness is essential because it improves emotional resilience, provides a strong support system, encourages boundaries and communication, and develops trust and conflict management skills. In order to increase social wellness, one can make an effort to keep in touch with close friends and family, become more active in clubs and community, and learn to balance the demands of a social life with other parts of life. A person with higher social wellness will be well-adjusted, comfortable in social situations, assertive, and able to form meaningful connections.
8. SPIRITUAL WELLNESS
The eighth and final dimension of wellness is spiritual wellness. Spiritual wellness is the journey of finding meaning in one’s life and purpose in one’s existence. This is the most complex layer, as there are many ways to achieve spiritual wellness - religion is not the only way to get in touch with the spiritual self. Because spiritual wellness can only come from within and differs greatly between individuals, there is not a singular right way to achieve it. However, to start on the journey towards spiritual wellness, one can practice meditation and acceptance, reflect on life-changing events, seek a religious faith if desired, and consider who they are and why. A person with heightened spiritual wellness will appreciate their lives, find meaning in their experiences, and strike a balance between the inner self and the outer world.
I hope that this introduction was helpful, and wish you all the best of luck in your individual wellness journeys! By enforcing small changes in lifestyle, you can make a huge impact!

A new law went into effect Tuesday, July 17 in the State of West Virginia that affected the punishments for driving under the influence.
WBOY reported that this legislation was introduced in response to two deadly DUI crashes that occurred in 2009 and 2011.The law makes a DUI that is responsible for the death or serious injury of another person a felony offense. Additionally, those who are responsible and convicted a DUI that killed someone will face a prison sentence that could range from 3 to 15 years.
The increased penalties should make people think twice before deciding to drive after drinking. For more information regarding this law Click Here to read WBOY’s story.

“The Black Lives Mater (BLM) movement has brought worldwide awareness to a seemingly disregard for the Black life. The movement has brought about a galvanizing force to challenge the systemic programs that have resulted in specific targeting of Black males. In my eyes BLM is the voice for the voiceless, and the sentiment is that injustices will not go unnoticed and those that have unfortunately lost their lives would not have done so in vain.
My hope is that my children will be free to grow and make the same mistakes as equally as other children, with the consequences being equal and not life threatening.”

The Canadian Museum of Flight’s Sopwith Pup replica returned to the air last week for its first air trials with a newly installed Lycoming engine.
The museum is working on two full-scale Sopwith Pup projects as part of Canada’s national First World War commemoration program, however, their participation in a flypast marking the 100th anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge in April was recently called into question. During a test flight on January 12th, one of the machines suffered an engine failure after experiencing overheating. Although the pilot was able to restart the engine and land safely, the engines for both machines were deemed unusable.
As previously reported, a search for suitable replacements began immediately, resulting in Canadian Museum of Flight volunteer Dave Beales and the Saskatoon Air Museum stepping forward to offer spare powerplants, while Pro Aero Aviation donated an engine rebuilt kit – all of which were “gratefully accepted.”
Pilot Allan Snowie took the Pup aloft on Friday afternoon to test its new engine, performing a “flawless” test flight around Langley Airport in British Columbia and prompting “smiles everywhere”.
The fabric for second Pup has just been completed, and it will hopefully be ready in time for shipment to France and the commemorative flypast on April 9.
UPDATE (3/8/17): Check out this onboard video of the VIMY Flight Pup in action:
A beautiful day in Langley. Ideal for Pup 1 (aka Betty/Phyllis) to spread her wings, add to her hours and prepare for the exciting days ahead.

ProcrastinationOctober 11, 2010 at 1:22 am | Posted in Philosophy | Leave a comment
Tags: depression, inspiration, laziness, wasting time, writer's block
I saw a writing prompt the other day: “What is the most wasteful thing you do each day?” My answer, without any hesitation or doubt was, “I waste time”.
There is one thing that is certain in life– our days are limited. The time we have available to do the things we need to do, or want to do, is finite. And yet, we waste so much of it.
Procrastination is so easy. There’s something you should do, but you find lots of other things you ‘need’ to do that are easier, or more pleasant, or show results more quickly. So, the thing you should do, need to do, doesn’t get done. The funny (as in strange) thing is, what you need to do is often something you really want to do; it is important to you. Then why is it so hard to get started? Perhaps the question should be, just how important is it, really
Our tax papers should have been in three months ago. That’s important because we could be in trouble for not filing on time. They are still waiting as I write this entry in my blog – I am procrastinating by writing about procrastinating.
Calling the kids and my dad is important because they all live far away. I love them and want to keep in contact with them. Then why don’t I do it more regularly, instead of engaging in activities that take up time but are not really necessary?
Getting my completed novel published is important; so is writing the sequel, which is stuck in chapter four. I believe, as do many others, that it is a better work than many children’s novels out there. I would like to see children reading something other than fantasy or vampire stories. I do know that my brain is going through a fuzzy stage that makes it difficult to concentrate, but that is an excuse, not a real reason. We are always told to “write through” the blockage, the fear and the lack of inspiration. We are told that you’ll never get published if you don’t submit. I haven’t even borrowed The Writers’ Marketplace from the local library.
I have a friend who has written and self-published three books in the last year. She has also brought a compilation of short stories, by herself and others (including me), to the printing stage. It has taken her only three months. She has energy and commitment I can only dream of; she puts me to shame.
When I do get motivated, I can accomplish a lot and gain a great deal of satisfaction; I know the rewards of getting things done. It happened a lot of the time when I was younger, but now it happens only occasionally. Health problems, both for myself and my husband, seem to have drained the energy from me. I have become a master (mistress?) of procrastination.
I wish I could give myself an effective kick up the backside and just get on with it.

Over the past few days, Riot, the developers behind League of Legends, have been teasing their fans with hints of an upcoming announcement on their twitter and on the game’s official forum. Speculation was on the release of previous announced new features, such as replay/spectator mode, or the upcoming Magma Chamber map.
However, at some point last night, the news leaked that a new game mode was under development for League of Legends. Riot then went into what could have been full panic mode, shutting down their forums and even putting the game into an unscheduled maintenance. Early this morning, they broke the news officially – the big announcement was in fact the new game mode, called Dominion.
Why is this huge news for League of Legends? If you’re even remotely connected to the DotA / MOBA scene, you’d know that the strong majority of these types of games follow the same tried and true format – minions push from one base to the other, down three separate lanes, in an attempt to destroy the enemy base, and your job is to assist those minions while taking out enemy champions along the way.
Almost every game that has come out in this genre (with the notable exception of Bloodline Champions) has used this same format. So, the announcement of a new game mode for League of Legends is not quite the same as an announcement for a new game mode in, say, Team Fortress 2. It’s a completely different way to play the game, and if you like League of Legends, you really should be excited.
Details are fairly scarce, but apparently the mode is playable, and has been under development for close to a year. Instead of attempting to destroy the enemy’s base by pushing minions across the map, Dominion sees players capturing and holding five nodes scattered around the map. These nodes each have a turret, but instead of destroying these turrets, the opposing team attempts to capture the node, claiming the turret for their own. As you hold these points, the enemy team’s Nexus loses health at a rate based on the number of points your team controls – capture more points, and the enemy Nexus falls faster. Games usually last around 20 minutes (instead of 30-50), making this mode very fast-paced and intense. The mode comes with a new map, called the Crystal Scar, which has a circular format with a “jungle” style area in the center, rather than three distinct lanes.
While there is no word yet on the large list of other improvements and features Riot has been promising for League of Legends, it is known that Season One will be ending at the end of August, paving the way for Season Two, which may hold more surprises. Perhaps Magma Chamber, replays, spectator mode, and the new graphics update League players have been waiting for will be released at the start of Season Two, or simultaneously along with Dominion.
Dominion will be releasing sometime by the end of this year. You can check out the official website, which has some first-ever gameplay footage of the mode in action.

Family and friends,
Thank you for taking the time to read about my fundraiser. My name is Ted Cam and I am a 14 year veteran police officer of the Westtown-East Goshen Regional Police Department in West Chester, PA. As a member of the department’s Honor Guard Unit, I have attended many funerals to honor a fellow police officer that died in the line of duty. In 2012, I joined the Police Unity Tour – Chapter IX to continue paying tribute to all fallen officers.
During National Law Enforcement Officers Week in May of each year, more than 1,600 Law Enforcement Officers from across the U.S. ride their bicycles over 250 miles in four (4) days to the National Law Enforcement Officer’s Memorial in Washington DC. This bicycle ride, known as the “Police Unity Tour,” raises awareness of Officers who have been killed in the line of duty. The secondary purpose is to raise funds for the National Law Enforcement Officer’s Memorial and Museum in Washington DC. Our Motto: “We Ride For Those Who Died.”
In May of 2013, I will be riding in memory of Honolulu Police Officers Garret Davis and Chad Morimoto.
Officer Garret Davis was killed in an automobile accident when his patrol car was rear-ended on H-1, at approximately 8:20 pm on Saturday, January 21, 2012. He had stopped his marked patrol car behind a stalled vehicle on the shoulder. Before he was able to exit his car it was struck from behind by another vehicle and burst into flames. Officer Davis suffered fatal injuries and died at the scene. Officer Davis had served with the Honolulu Police Department for three years. He is survived by his mother, a sister, and a daughter. (Read more: http://http://www.odmp.org/officer/21103-officer-garret-davis)
Officer Chad Morimoto was killed in a motorcycle accident while participating in a motorcycle escort training at approximately 11:45 am on Monday, July 23, 2012. Officer Morimoto had served with the Honolulu Police Department for eight years. He was assigned to the Traffic Division and became a motorcycle officer in 2010. He started his career as a patrol officer in Waikiki. He is survived by his wife, a daughter, and a son. (Read more: http://www.odmp.org/officer/21337-officer-chad-morimoto)
2013 marks the second ride for our newly formed chapter; “Chapter IX.” We will leave Philadelphia, PA on Thursday, May 9, 2013 and arrive at the National Law Enforcement Officer’s Memorial in Washington DC on Sunday, May 12, 2013.
My goal for 2013 is to raise $7500. Please assist me in honoring ALL of the fallen officers who gave their life to protect others, and to raise much needed awareness about driving safely around officers on our roadways. All donations are tax deductible. You may send a check made out to “Police Unity Tour, Inc.” to the attention of: Officer Ted Cam – Westtown-East Goshen Regional Police, 1041 Wilmington Pike, West Chester, PA 19382. Please feel free to email me at: email@example.com if you would like more information.
Founded in 1984, The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund is dedicated to honoring and remembering the service and sacrifice of law enforcement officers in the United States. The Memorial Fund does NOT receive taxpayer dollars for its day-to-day operations, but relies on the generous contributions of the public.
A nonprofit 501 (c)(3) organization headquartered in Washington, DC, the Memorial Fund built and continues to maintain the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial – the nation’s monument to law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty. The Memorial Fund is a principal organizer of the National Police Week observance each May and hosts a Candlelight vigil at the Memorial each May 13th to honor all fallen officers. In addition, the Fund maintains the largest, most comprehensive database of line-of-duty officer deaths, conducts research into officer fatality trends and issues, and serves as an information clearinghouse.
The Fund also operates various programs designed to raise awareness of law enforcement service and sacrifice, promote officer safety, and reduce injuries and fatalities. Our Drive Safely campaign encourages motorists to be careful around law enforcement officers on our roadways, where the majority of officers are killed each year.
Please assist me in honoring ALL of the fallen officers who gave their life to protect others. Many thanks for your support – and PLEASE forward this to anyone you think may wish to donate too!

These are the biggest NJ retailers sunk by COVID closures in 2020
Months of closures and continued capacity limits during the COVID-19 pandemic have proven to be too much to bear for a number of retailers in New Jersey, some of them uprooted after decades in the Garden State.
For some chains, like Sears, the public health crisis was just added loss after already considerable financial struggles. The pandemic ramped up in March and by late Spring, there were the first few announced Chapter 11 filings.
Nationwide, more than 8,000 retail locations have closed up for good this year, according to Coresight Research, which excluded restaurants and bars, health clubs and entertainment venues from its data.
Here's at least eight retail chains that have either cut back or shutdown altogether in NJ in 2020.

The movie is a technical marvel with skillful but gruesome makeup and costumes from Norma Hill Patton, Gitte Axen and Nancy Bryant, respectively.
Thompson's directorial vision definitely takes a cue from Tim Burton, but with a more universal sweetness.
it was great, loved it, Miranda Richardson was great in it
Faded tiny bit away from the tale but I think Kristin Kreuk was the very best choice as Snow White.
An extremely bizarre, yet still very imaginative and entertaining adaptation of the classic tale. The casting is a nice bonus as well.

With construction of the University Station near Husky Stadium underway, Sound Transit is developing plans for another underground station to be built in the U-District, under Brooklyn Avenue between Northeast 43rd Street and Northeast 45th Street.
At a community meeting last night, Sound Transit introduced two options for the design of the project: a single, street-level-entrance underground station near Brooklyn Avenue and a Modified Preliminary Engineering (PE) station that would have two street-level entries and be built under Brooklyn Avenue Northeast.
The station has been temporarily named Brooklyn Station, though it won’t have a final name until Sound Transit collects input from community members. Brooke Belman, Sound Transit community outreach director, said Sound Transit is accepting ideas at public community meetings and workshops.
Brooklyn Station is part of the North Link Project, which will be a 4.3-mile tunnel spanning from University Station to a Northgate Station near the Northgate Transit Center. Sound Transit plans to have the link open by 2021.
Sound Transit spokesman Bruce Gray explained that because of the high ridership in the U-District, two stations are necessary.
UW senior Andrew Acker, who attended yesterday’s meeting, thinks Brooklyn Station is a good location because the next light-rail station would be at the intersection of Roosevelt Way Northeast and Northeast 65th Street, which would be far from campus.
“Lots of people take the Ave buses to go downtown,” Acker said. “This would be quicker.”
The University Station will cater to the southern part of campus, the stadium and the UW Medical Center, while the Brooklyn Station will be more accessible for people traveling to the UW Tower, University Way Northeast, North Campus’ residential community and buses that connect at Northeast 45th Street.
Gray explained that the Modified PE station is an adapted version of the original station design developed a year and a half ago. The proposed width of the station is 66 feet, while the street width is 70 feet, meaning Sound Transit is only 4 feet below the maximum. Because this would put the station in close proximity to the Neptune Theatre and UW Tower, Gray recognized the intricacy of the project.
“Looking at constructing the station, we saw some risks with building it right underneath Brooklyn and against the UW towers,” Gray said.
The Modified PE station would have entrances at Northeast 45th Street and Northeast 43rd Street, making the station more accessible for pedestrians. Sound Transit predicts that this station would have 12,000 people board per day.
The single-entrance station is an alternative design that would move the station eastward 25 to 30 feet and would have only one entrance in the middle of the station along Brooklyn Avenue Northeast, rather than at both ends. This proposal also has a lower cost for Sound Transit because the design is less complicated.
“Saving construction risks of building so close to the 22-story tower could save us up to $10 million,” Gray said.
The project would also have a five-month shorter construction period.
Despite a potentially shorter construction timeline and a lower budget, Gray said there are potential downfalls to the plan.
“We think we could lose up to 1 percent of ridership,” Gray said. “There would [also] be a little bit of a longer walk time to get to the platform … a minute longer walk from the bus transfers or either end of the block.”
In addition, the single-entrance station design would be built as close as 6.5 feet to the University Manor Apartments, located at Northeast 43rd Street and Brooklyn Avenue Northeast, and close to the UW Tower. Belman said Sound Transit would be working closely with the UW because of its proximity to the tower.
“The UW … is a major property owner,” she said. “We’ll be working closely with them as we develop our plan.”
Like the University Station, both designs feature amenities for bike riders, including 100 parking stalls and both escalators and elevators.
Once construction of the 75-to-85 feet below ground station begins in 2012, street detours will have to direct traffic around the area for the seven-year building period.
“With either of these approaches, Brooklyn will be closed for a long time,” Gray said.
After Sound Transit receives input from stakeholders and community members around the station site and nearby neighborhoods, they will give their recommendation to the Sound Transit Capital Committee Board on Feb. 10. There will be another public open house featuring a 30 percent complete design in the spring.
