Many individuals that are looking into purchasing golf carts are usually surprised by the price points at which golf carts can cost. Since there is really no unified Kelly Blue Book (KBB) or Nada valuation guide like you could find in the automobile industry, it can be difficult to find true valuations sometimes for what to sell or pay for a golf cart. This was actually one of the main drives in the creation of Golf Cart Resource. Spending so many years in the industry without a unified resource for consumers to go to and learn more about golf carts.
So, how much should you pay for a golf cart?
Anyway, let’s get back to the topic of golf cart worths and valuations. The common misconnection is that golf carts are relatively inexpensive. Let’s face it, for the basic golf cart on a golf course without any accessories, safety related items, or color options, they ARE relatively inexpensive.
However, when looking to purchase a golf cart for traveling around a neighborhood or community, many individuals usually have quite the sticker shock on the first visit to their local golf car dealership. The reason why golf carts can seem expensive is because of the additional items they include for safety reasons. These additional add ons such as headlights, brake lights, turn signals, seat belts and other items are not typically installed at a manufacturing plant. They are typically installed at the dealership themselves which costs a bit more due to manual labor costs and part costs.
So, now that we have a bit of a background on golf carts on a golf course (fleet vehicles) versus a golf cart used for transportation within a community (typically referred to as a PTV or LSV), we can discuss how golf carts get valued.
While without a unified Kelly Blue Book Value (KBB) or Nada guide for golf carts, we have built a valuation tool for golf carts to help put you in the right ballpark. With your help, we will continually improve our golf cart valuation tool and reviews for golf carts to help you, the consumer, have proper information to drive your decisions.
If you find yourself with any questions or feedback, then please feel free to leave a comment below or contact us. Your feedback is valuable to us as it helps us provide better information to you.
The Golf Cart industry itself is a little behind the times when compared to cars, however, as stated earlier, with your help, we can help provide a transparent view to help the entire market.

For Leaders Who Don't just Want Success but also Bliss and Balance. Those Who Dare To Be Human & Real and Who Know That Leading Others Starts With Leading Themselves
Quite honestly: 5 years ago I did not have a clue what Personal Leadership was. As I simply did not give it a thought. The definition that is.
Instinctively though I realized that there is something wrong with the way of how we learn to lead.
When I had just passed my mid-twenties and I worked for a start-up in the IT business (not that we called it like that 25 years ago) it was the first time that I managed a team. I had 3 people in a sales team to lead. And I failed miserably.
None of my team was in the slightest inspired by me and I had simply no idea what I was doing. Even when I read up about what I could do how and tested things out, it did only marginally get better. The second time around leading a team in a different organisation went better, still not great though.
Well, I could have assumed that I was simply a lousy leader. I realized later though, that I had started at the wrong end.
What is the right end then?
Quite simple on one...
No, I’m not suddenly mad. And no, I don’t enjoy suffering either. I simply realized that the adversities in my life were the most useful, even if not enjoyable moments. And often those difficult situations happen between people: Disagreements and arguments.
My reaction to them tells me an awful lot about myself. In fact, often stuff I’m not really aware of.
This counts for everybody. And it represents one of the biggest chances for us to grow AND to get a good look into our subconscious mind.
Let me take a step back and tell you a little story.
A couple of weeks ago, I suddenly found myself in a difficult situation. An incredibly important relationship in my life was suddenly in danger of falling apart. We had a call and suddenly I learned about something which let me stop, fill with anger and disappointment top to toe, and quickly one word led to another.
I felt betrayed and unsupported by something the person had done – and the other person felt that I had...
I promise I won't send you daily mails - I might offer you great stuff from time to time though. Of course I'm biased ;-).
Thanks for your trust!

Agri-Vie Fund I, the Africa Food and Agribusiness Investment Fund managed by the pan-African private equity investment firm, EXEO Capital, has announced its exit from one of South Africa’s most well-established abalone farming companies, HIK Abalone Farm (HIK), concluding a rewarding partnership which has significantly expanded the business over eight years. The Agri-Vie interest was sold to African Pioneer Group, a black-owned investment company, with other interests in the fishing sector.
EXEO Capital partner, Izak Strauss, recalls that the decision to invest in HIK was based on a number of factors. “With the ocean’s natural resources coming under increasing pressure, we have long had a keen interest in investing in good, viable aquaculture projects. Established in 1998 in the Southern African coastal town of Hermanus, HIK was already a well-established company at the time of investment and had an excellent management team.
“Furthermore, most of their income was USD-based, which promised a good rand hedge for the fund,” Strauss adds.
This reasoning proved sound, based on the impressive return achieved by the fund upon exiting. “Over the eight-year investment term, we invested a total sum of R41.5mn in two tranches and achieved an excellent return that is in line with expectations for private equity investments,” says Strauss. “We were also able to enhance our knowledge of aquaculture business in our interaction with the company and industry. We expanded our network in the industry through building a strong relationship with management and fellow shareholders.”
Strauss believes that this interaction at board level and with management also contributed to HIK’s expansion as a business. “Over the eight-year investment term, we were able to assist the company in improving the evaluation of new investments and capital projects, as well as improve their financial reporting and corporate governance.”
Peter Inglis, the Chairman of HIK for the past 20 years, added that the development of an abalone farm is highly capital intensive during expansion phases, primarily because the revenue stream lags capital expenditure by a number of years, making organic growth very slow.
“Investment by Agri-Vie has enabled HIK to advance the expansion cycle by the development of a second farm, enabling production to increase from 80 tonnes per year to 300 tonnes per year.
“We have derived a significant benefit from the association with Agri-Vie over the past six years, not only in terms of financial muscle but also in terms of financial management and reporting structures. HIK are now in a position to play a major role in the farmed abalone industry,” says Inglis.
While this exit brings to a close the partnership between EXEO Capital and HIK, Strauss says that aquaculture remains a focus area for current investments. “Just last year, our Agri-Vie Fund II concluded an investment into TerraSan - a fast-growing aquaculture company operating on the South and West coasts of South Africa. This is our second Agri -Vie Fund, building on the success of its predecessor US$100mn Fund.”

Recently school officials issued a letter to all parents and staff stating: “As you may be aware, influenza season has arrived in the area.”
Many parents across the county are coping with sick children, as absences at local schools begin to climb.
“We are seeing above average absences in all the schools,” Assistant Superintendent of Human Resource and Business Operations Lance Moran stated in an email. “Ordinarily the county experiences about 5 to 6 percent of the population out on a given day. Currently our number absent is fluctuating anywhere from 8 to 12 percent out.”
But school officials are quick to point out that identifying the cause of each individual absence is difficult.
“We do not have a confirmed number of how many students out are flu-related absences,” Moran added.
School officials note that while some students will return to school with a doctor’s note indicating they had the flu, others may be out for other illnesses or other reasons, as well as those students who get ill and never see a doctor.
The Feb. 4 letter sent home to parents encourages “good hygienic practices” and recommendations from the Lord Fairfax Health District including:
- Wash hands with soap and water often, especially after being around someone sick;
- Cover your mouth and nose with a disposable tissue when coughing or sneezing, or use your upper sleeve, but do not use your hands;
- Dispose of facial tissues that contain nasal secretions after each use, wash hands afterwards;
- Avoid touching the eyes, nose or mouth;
- Routinely clean and disinfect commonly touched surfaces, toys, etc.
Both school and health department officials are encouraging the public to treat the flu seriously and to take precautions that help prevent its spread. Two key pieces of advice include staying home if you are sick, and avoiding those who are sick if you aren’t.
“We are encouraging parents not to send their sick children to school,” Moran stated. “Our custodians are disinfecting our buildings.”
The school systems’ letter encouraged citizens to get a flu shot, which it states is “usually 40 to 60 percent effective in preventing the flu in healthy persons.”
“Every day we check our absentee count in each building to be sure we are not seeing a major spike in absenteeism,” Moran said. “We are also in close contact with the Health Department. They are helping advise the school system as to the best way to combat the flu.”
For more information about the flu, see our regular column “To Your Health” seen under our HEALTH section, or call the Page County Health Department at (540) 743-6528.

Sanand police filed fresh case against Rajput leader Yuvrajsinh Vaghela for instigated people
Sanand police on Sunday registered a case against Yuvrajsinh Vaghela, the second one, for provoking people to arson and violence during protests against the release of film Padmaavat in Gujarat. This is the fifth complaint registered at various police stations relating to the Padmaavat controversy. According to the police, Prithvirajsinh Vaghela, Rajendrasinh Jadeja, Yuvrajsinh and other Rajput leaders had called a meeting in Sanand on January 23 and had chalked out a plan to attack multiplexes and malls in Ahmedabad to protest the film’s release.
Police investigations revealed that Yuvrajsinh was part of the mob in the candlelight protest march near Acropolis Mall on SG Highway on January 23. However, he fled the scene once the mob turned hostile. He is also accused of making a video viral on social media platforms and inciting people to attack malls and multiplexes. In the video he is seen inciting people, “We should be ashamed of ourselves as Rajputs if we allow Padmaavat to be released in Ahmedabad. We will destroy malls and multiplexes even if government deploys State Reserve Police, army personnel or any other force.”


A Glimpse into the Type 212:
The Type 212 submarines belong to a class of diesel-electric attack submarines (SSKs) that are highly regarded for their remarkable underwater endurance and operational versatility. Introduced as a successor to the Type 209 submarines, the Type 212 boasts numerous enhancements that make it a formidable force beneath the waves.
Air-Independent Propulsion (AIP) System:
One of the most distinctive features of the Type 212 submarines is their Air-Independent Propulsion (AIP) system. Traditional diesel-electric submarines require periodic surfacing to recharge their batteries, leaving them vulnerable to detection and attack during this period. The AIP system on the Type 212, however, allows the submarines to operate for extended periods underwater without needing to surface for air. This remarkable technological advancement significantly enhances their stealth capabilities and operational range.
The hull design of the Type 212 submarines is optimized for hydrodynamics, reducing water resistance and enhancing maneuverability. This design, coupled with advanced control systems, enables the submarines to move quietly and efficiently through the water, making them more challenging to detect by enemy forces.
Sonar and Sensor Systems:
The Type 212 submarines are equipped with state-of-the-art sonar and sensor systems that provide them with exceptional situational awareness in underwater environments. These advanced systems allow the submarines to detect and track other vessels, mines, and potential threats from a distance, ensuring that they maintain the upper hand in any engagement.
Modular Weapon Systems:
Flexibility and adaptability are key features of the Type 212 submarines. Their modular design enables the integration of various weapon systems, including torpedoes, anti-ship missiles, and mines. This adaptability ensures that the submarines can be tailored to meet specific mission requirements, making them a versatile asset for naval operations ranging from reconnaissance to anti-submarine warfare.
The Type 212 submarines have garnered international attention and interest due to their advanced technology and capabilities. Notably, the Italian Navy operates a modified version of the Type 212 known as the Todaro-class submarine. This international adoption speaks volumes about the submarines’ reputation for excellence and their ability to enhance a nation’s maritime defense capabilities.Pages: 1 2 3

Weather Services International (WSI) have released revised predictions for the number and type of storms for the 2011 storm season emanating from the Atlantic Ocean.
WSI predicts 15 named storms, 8 hurricanes and 4 intense hurricanes rated at category 3 or greater.
These forecasts are above the long-term average calculated between 1950 and 2010 of 12 named storms, 7 hurricanes, and 3 intense hurricanes, but do match the more active recent period calculated between 1995 and 2010.
The current set of predictions is a reduction from the previous set made in December for 17 named storms, 9 hurricanes and 5 intense hurricanes.
“We have reduced our forecast numbers to ‘active-normal’ levels since the recent North Atlantic weather pattern has resulted in a cooling of the tropical Atlantic sea surface temperatures. Further, the La Nina event weakened a bit more quickly than we first expected, reducing the possibility of a favorable wind shear environment during the upcoming tropical season,” said WSI Chief Meteorologist Dr. Todd Crawford.
“We do expect another active season in 2011, although not to the level of 2005 or 2010. However, while we expect less overall activity this year, we do expect a much more impactful season along the US coastline. The US has been spared from any landfalling hurricanes since 2008, and the hurricane drought in 2009 and 2010 is relatively rare in the historical record. In fact, the US has not had a three-year stretch without a hurricane landfall since the 1860s. Further, 80 percent of all years in the historical dataset have had at least one hurricane landfall in the US. Our recent good fortune in avoiding landfalling hurricanes is not likely to last.”
Crawford also indicated that the Gulf Coast was under a significant threat for hurricane landfall in the upcoming season.
“The lack of US landfalls in 2010 was primarily due to a persistent western Atlantic trough that essentially protected the US East Coast from any direct hits. We do not expect this feature to be in place this year during late summer and fall when most tropical storms occur. Further, the Gulf and Caribbean sea surface temperatures are particularly warm this year, and we expect more development in these regions and less in the eastern tropical Atlantic. Storms developing in the Gulf and Caribbean are a much greater threat to make landfall along the US coast than those that develop off the coast of Africa.”
“For this reason, and since our hurricane landfall prediction model suggests sharply increased chances of US landfall in 2011, especially in the western Gulf states, we expect two or three landfalling hurricanes this season. This is not particularly unusual, since historically 43% of years have had multiple hurricane landfalls. The forecast numbers from our model are quite similar to those prior to the 2008 season, when Hurricanes Dolly, Gustav, and Ike impacted Louisiana and Texas.”
Since 2006, when WSI began making tropical seasonal forecasts, its track record has been better than Tropical Storm Risk (TSR) and Colorado State University. Click here for the track record charts.


Update, 3:58 p.m.:
"These petitions represent a non-partisan, grassroots effort that has taken place over the past week," Kathy Finnegan, one of the organizers of the effort, wrote in an email. "The petitioners have sincere concerns about the proposed 'shuffle' project and the $6.9 million bond approved by the RTM last week."
"Over 950 signatures have been collected from Darien citizens who are concerned that this projected has not been fully vetted or justified," she added.
Update, 3:23 p.m.:
Shuffle opponents have turned in 73 petition sheets bearing about 970 signatures, according to an estimate provided by organizers to the Town Clerk — well above the roughly 630 required in order to trigger a town-wide referendum.
If the signatures are verified — a process that won't begin until next week — the Board of Selectmen will be obligated to schedule a referendum "as soon as practicable."
According to First Selectman-elect Jayme Stevenson, that process has historically resulted in a vote about one month after a successful petition is filed, potentially setting a referendum in this case for mid-December.
Stevenson, outgoing First Selectman Dave Campbell, and RTM Moderator Karen Armour joined Town Clerk Donna Rajczewski in the lobby of an otherwise empty Town Hall Friday, where they looked over some of the petition sheets.
"I am obviously very disappointed to know that it looks like potentially they have enough signatures to move the referendum vote forward, but I am eager to now spend the time between now and the vote to more fully educate the people," Stevenson said. "I have every confidence that upon the vote, it will just be a third affirmation that this is a very good project, and it will move forward."
In order for the referendum to overrule the RTM's funding of the $6.979 million project, a majority of participants totaling at least 25% of registered voters (or about 3,100 people) will have to vote "no."
The last referendum in Darien came in Dec. 2001, when residents affirmed the RTM's decision to fund the reconstruction of , 4,335 votes to 2,539. Ten weeks prior to that, voters overruled a $26.7 million appropriation to purchase the property now occupied by Avalon Darien, 2,505 votes to 3,207.
may be closed Friday in observance of Veterans Day, but one office — the — is set to hold special business hours.
That's because Friday falls ten days after a pivotal decision by the Representative Town Meeting and bond issue for town's pending facilities shuffle.
The 58-28 vote was the last major approval by a town body needed for the Republican-led plan, which would see the 's offices shifted to the old library at 35 Leroy Ave. and the fraying given a new home at a renovated annex (dubbed the Mather Community Center).
But since last week, a group of opponents to the project on the RTM's action. In order to trigger such a vote, the town clerk must, within ten days, receive petitions signed by at least five percent of registered voters as of the last municipal election (or about 630 people).
If the petition effort is successful, the Board of Selectmen will be obligated to organize a special electors' meeting "as soon as practicable." A majority of referendum participants totaling at least 25% of registered voters (or about 3,100 people) would then have to vote "no" in order to overrule the RTM.
As of early Thursday evening, organizer Kathy Finnegan said she wasn't sure how many signatures had been collected but that she and other petition supporters would work to tally the names Thursday night and Friday morning.
"I know we're not making some people happy that we're planning to file tomorrow," Finnegan said, adding that several opponents of the petition had asked organizers to withdraw their efforts on Thursday.
Finnegan said that the breakdown of residents who had signed on was "not coming back to us along party lines."
According to the Town Clerk's Office, its doors will stay open from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday to accept petitions, but staff will not verify signers' names until later.
If a referendum is triggered, it would be the first in Darien since Dec. 2001, when residents affirmed the RTM's decision to fund the reconstruction of Darien High School, 4,335 votes to 2,539. Ten weeks before that, voters overruled a $26.7 million appropriation to purchase the property now occupied by Avalon Darien, 2,505 votes to 3,207.
According to First Selectman-elect Jayme Stevenson, past referenda suggest that it would take about a month after a successful petition effort to hold a vote.
If a referendum is triggered but fails to overrule the RTM's decision, Stevenson said it would "definitely delay the [shuffle] process by approximately a month."
The current timetable calls for renovations at 35 Leroy to finish in time for the Board of Education to relocate by late summer 2012.
"I'm still holding out hope that even with a month delay, the board of ed could be moved into that space by the end of the summer," Stevenson said. But, she noted, "Those will be conversations that we'll have to have with the architects in the coming weeks."
Stevenson said she had left a voicemail with Finnegan on Friday acknowledging that, while there had been "some pretty heated dialogue" around the petition effort, she respected the organizers' right to pursue a referendum.
Still, Stevenson said, "My sincere hope is that they don't get enough signatures by tomorrow afternoon."

A few big branders have been helping to juice up the gummi candy business. But for some retailers, the juice may also be coming from private-label gummies.
sburg, Pa., achieved overall sales increases in its gummi candy business last year in large part due to the introduction of a line under its own label.
"Last year, we started buying the gummies in bulk and packaging them ourselves, under our own label. We carry that in addition to other brands," said Bill Fox, vice president.
"Right now, our brand is outselling the others. We have been giving it premium display space. We display it in a mass display in the aisle quite frequently," Fox said. He added that the label's lower price is probably responsible for movement that is topping the branded items.
Roche Bros. Supermarkets, Wellesley Hills, Mass., is mulling over creating its first private-label gummi line, after having successfully introduced items from Lifesavers and a gummi candy from wholesale distributor Sweet Life Foods in the last year, according to Chuck Lisi, grocery director.
"Eventually, we will introduce our own private-label gummi candy, but that is probably more than a year away," Lisi said.
Trader Joe's, South Pasadena, Calif., does not currently carry any gummi candy. However, the specialty food store chain, with 62 units in California and Arizona, plans to introduce an all-natural gummi candy product under its own label this fall, said Cara Kiyohara, buyer.
Apparently, a store-brand gummi candy is not right for some chains, however. A private-label gummi candy was considered, but rejected, by Safeway's Phoenix division because "the subcategory is not that large," said Bob Sheldon, manager of sales and grocery merchandising for the division. "Private label is not an option," he said.

RETINAL ABNORMALITIES AND POTENTIAL VISION LOSS
- POTIGA can cause retinal abnormalities with funduscopic features similar to those seen in retinal pigment dystrophies, which are known to result in damage to the photoreceptors and vision loss.
- Some patients with retinal abnormalities have been found to have abnormal visual acuity. It is not possible to determine whether POTIGA caused this decreased visual acuity, as baseline assessments are not available for these patients.
- Approximately one third of the patients who had eye examinations performed after approximately 4 years of treatment were found to have retinal pigmentary abnormalities. An earlier onset cannot be ruled out, and it is possible that retinal abnormalities were present earlier in the course of exposure to POTIGA. The rate of progression of retinal abnormalities and their reversibility are unknown.
- POTIGA should only be used in patients who have responded inadequately to several alternative treatments and for whom the benefits outweigh the potential risk of vision loss. Patients who fail to show substantial clinical benefit after adequate titration should be discontinued from POTIGA.
- All patients taking POTIGA should have baseline and periodic (every 6 months) systematic visual monitoring by an ophthalmic professional. Testing should include visual acuity and dilated fundus photography. Additional testing may include fluorescein angiograms (FA), ocular coherence tomography (OCT), perimetry, and electroretinograms (ERG).
- If retinal pigmentary abnormalities or vision changes are detected, POTIGA should be discontinued unless no other suitable treatment options are available and the benefits of treatment outweigh the potential risk of vision loss.
The chemical name of ezogabine is N-[2-amino-4-(4-fluorobenzylamino)-phenyl] carbamic acid ethyl ester, and it has the following structure:
The empirical formula is C16H18FN3O2, representing a molecular weight of 303.3. Ezogabine is a white to slightly colored, odorless, tasteless, crystalline powder. At room temperature, ezogabine is practically insoluble in aqueous media at pH values above 4, while the solubility is higher in polar organic solvents. At gastric pH, ezogabine is sparingly soluble in water (about 16 g/L). The pKa is approximately 3.7 (basic).
POTIGA is supplied for oral administration as 50-mg, 200-mg, 300-mg, and 400-mg film-coated immediate-release tablets. Each tablet contains the labeled amount of ezogabine and the following inactive ingredients: carmine (50-mg and 400-mg tablets), croscarmellose sodium, FD&C Blue No. 2 (50-mg, 300-mg, and 400-mg tablets), hypromellose, iron oxide yellow (200-mg and 300-mg tablets), lecithin, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, talc, titanium dioxide, and xanthan gum.
What are the possible side effects of ezogabine (Potiga)?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Report any new or worsening symptoms to your doctor, such as: mood or behavior changes, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, or if you feel agitated, hostile, aggressive, restless, hyperactive (mentally or physically), or have thoughts about suicide or hurting yourself.
Call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:
- painful or difficult urination;
- urinating less than usual or not...

Almost half of tenants expect to still be renting in ten years’ time, a new survey has revealed.
The survey, which focused on 2,000 tenants, shows that 31% of renters in London think they will end up renting a property for the next 5-10 years.
Some 52% of 45-59 year old’s responded by saying they intend to rent in the longer term, while the majority of over 60 year old’s also said they intended to rent for longer.
The findings of this survey highlights the fact that long-term renting is on the rise, which perhaps means that British attitudes to long-term renting are changing.
For some tenants it’s not simply a case of not being able to afford to buy a property. It’s sometimes a case of not wanting to buy a property, instead enjoying the freedom which comes with renting.
However, there are many renters who want to climb onto the property ladder but simply cannot afford to. Renting in London is expensive, which makes saving for a deposit all the more challenging.
For Londoners in particular, a high proportion of monthly income is eaten up by rent. A quarter of those included in the survey say that over 40% of income is poured into paying the rent.
It will be interesting to see whether this trend continues, and whether British attitudes to long-term renting change.

Why Rebecca Rodriguez chose Downtown
Ease of access to everything!! Love the ambiance of the eclectic neighborhood and the proximity of the Farmers Market and Railyard area. We looked for over a year and kept coming back to this neighborhood. This area gives us the old Santa Fe we've known for decades, closeness to shopping and dining, walk to farmers market and summer plaza events. Wonderful weather with 4 full seasons. We hope to retire there full time in the future.
What makes this Townhome unique
Peacefulness. Elegant surroundings but very comfortable. Easy 3 blocks to Farmers Market and emerging Art Center. Whole Foods, Trader Joes just down the street. Love our neighbors!! Outdoor setting off Master. ALWAYS something going on in Santa Fe. You can walk to the plaza on summer evenings around 5pm for live music and special activities.

Lovely place to stay
Loved the condo. It had everything we needed and more.
Loved the cozy feel and location to the Railyard activity and shops.
My Family and I spent a week in this beautiful condo during spring break. It had everything we needed and was in the perfect location for exploring the Railyard District, museums and shops. It was also close to the highway for day trips to Bandelier National Monument, Ghost Ranch, and Taos. We loved it so much, it was hard to leave. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and everything was sparkling clean. I really appreciated the beautiful artwork and gorgeaous furnishings. We used the fireplace daily and cooked many meals in the well stocked kitchen. Bonus: Trader Joes is a few blocks away. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, especially families. Perfect!
Cleanest vacation rental ever!
We loved our stay. Quiet, great location, everything we needed, exceptionally clean, comfortable beds and furniture...and, a whirlpool bath in master suite AND a fireplace in the living room. We would definitely stay here again should the opportunity present itself.
Beautiful, restful and comfy
Great place to stay. It’s a nice walk to the railyardd for shopping on a Saturday morning. Just off the main drag so it’s a quick 5 min drive to everything.
Wonderful location and beautiful property. A luxurious amount of space and lovely furnishings.
Everything was just perfect, and beautifully decorated for the holidays. My family enjoyed the multiple cozy seating areas especially.
Stroll to Farmers Market (8 minute walk or 3 blocks down Manhattan st.) or Hip Guadalupe St., 6.5 blks to PLAZA. Santa Fe Ski Basin, National Forrest, TAOS,ABIQUE, MADRID are all unique towns to visit. Bandalier National Park only 40 minute drive.

For many years, students with disabilities were not allowed to participate in sports, but in 1969, students at Marshall University High School in Minneapolis fought for the right to play.
WCCO's Susie Jones had a chance to sit down with one of the original coaches, and some of the athletes who continue to carry on the dream of playing just like all the other kids.
Charlie Brose was born without legs, and never in a million years thought would he be able to take part in sports. When he started at Marshall University High School in the 1970s, he was encouraged to join the floor hockey team.
“It became one of my greatest loves, you know, throughout my life,” Brose said. “You know, playing the sports in Ed’s class and playing floor hockey games at such a high competitive level that there were days that you got on that floor and you knew you wanted to win. You had to try to win.”
Brose’s coach, Ed Prohofsky, was the physical education teacher at Marshall U. High at the time. He talked about another player on the team who had a suggestion.
“We had a young man named Jim Christy who came to me and said, you know, why can't we win letter jackets and letters like everybody else?” Prohofsky explains. “And I said, Jesus Jimmy, that's a good thing.”
Prohofsky and Christie, who passed away this past year, got to work creating the Adapted Floor Hockey League. And it was the first sport created for disabled students in Minnesota. During the 1974-75 school year.
In 1988 the Minnesota Special Interscholastic Sports Association was established, prompting Ed Prohofsky to work harder to get adapted athletics approved by the Minnesota State High School League. He recalled one of the speakers than who shared an unexpected story.
“You know, he said, I have a daughter, that's a good basketball player, and she got in a car accident and now she's playing wheelchair basketball,” Prohofsky told WCCO. “And he said if you people don't put this thing together, you don't belong in your job. And he sat down.”
Finally, in 1992, the high school league approved the measure. Susie asked the coach why he's been so committed to getting this done.
“The adapted program and Marshall University High School we're probably the best job that I had in my life. I don't mean that things I had were not an issue because they were and I love them too. But nothing was like Marshall U. High.”
Prohofsky’s daughter Susie added about her modest father, “That's just who he is. He doesn't see disability. He doesn't see color. He sees humans.”
Another former Prehofsky floor hockey standout joined Susie Jones for the conversation. Mark Knutson remembers joining the team.
“With Mr. Prohofsky as our gym teacher, he wasn't soft on us,” Knutson said. “You know, you’d think, well maybe he'll give us a break being were disabled. Yeah, that didn't really happen. He kind of had that Army in him.”
Knutson went on to create a program for adults who want to continue to play floor hockey. He and Brose have also started a cable television show called “Disability Landscape”, where Prohofsky was the most recent guest.
The coach, again revealing during the show his tender and kind nature, described how he tried to help young athletes who didn't have arms find a way to play floor hockey.
“And I tried to tape stick into her prosthesis and she was having a real difficult time to try to get down and she wasn't really having a good time,” Prohofsky said. “I asked her if there was a way that you think we could play the game better. She says, well, could I just kick it with my foot? So that makes sense to me? So we started doing that. She became our best hockey player. And that that's better than winning the state championship.”

Because the amount of fiction reading I do is directly proportional to the amount of time I spend at the gym--and because the gym is not the place for complicated, experimental fiction--I've been whipping through novels lately. The one I finished most recently is Gillian Flynn's debut novel, Sharp Objects which I picked up after having read and loved Gone Girl a couple of years back.
Sharp Objects isn't as strong of a novel, though it's very good. Suspense/mystery/crime isn't my preferred genre, but both Gone Girl and Sharp Objects have stuck with me for reasons that are only loosely connected to genre. I guess the easiest way of putting it is that I can't stop thinking about Flynn's women. Both novels are narrated by the kind of women who are familiar from crime fiction, but who usually aren't given the chance to speak for themselves. You know: tough, beautiful, damaged, and dangerous to themselves or others. The kind of woman the male hero gets entangled with--and usually tries but fails to save.
But the women in Flynn's novels get to be more than just enigmas or objects of fascination; they show us heterosexual femininity under pressure. Some of her female characters are monstrous (Sharp Objects has a lot of these, from country-club backstabbers to suffocating mothers to mean-girl tweens), but even their monstrosity seems just a twisted and exaggerated version of types we all know. We know those types, because we live in a world where many women feel the pressures of femininity. And so they have coercive sex at 13; shun and shame other women for fear of losing status; transform themselves into perfect homemakers and spend their days shopping and decorating and drinking themselves into stupefaction.
Flynn's women are not tragic victims and they're far from feminist heroes. But in indirect and often self-serving ways, they make a feminist point about our social scripts for women. The famous "cool girl speech" from Gone Girl may have been delivered by an extremely unreliable narrator, but as its popularity suggests, it's a sentiment a lot of women relate to. As someone who was an awfully angry teen and twentysomething (though quiet and almost entirely unrebellious), I tend to believe there's a lot more female rage out there than we talk about. In Gillian Flynn, the fury of the pretty girl and the hostility of the good girl are all right there. It's a reality I appreciate seeing depicted.

Shahid Kapoor and brother Ishan Khattar will soon be seen in a movie together. But the only thing that is stopping them from doing so is the script.
Yes, fans get quite excited when Salman Khan collaborate with his brothers Sohail Khan and Arbaaz Khan for a film. So why won’t anybody like to see Shahid Kapoor with his younger brother Ishan Khattar?
But the two are waiting for an apt script. Ishan in an interview with DNA said, “Pray for it, we will do it. Everyone’s saying it, so there must be a reason why they want to see us together. I’ll be on cloud nine if I get that kind of opportunity, but we shouldn’t be doing it just because people want us to. It has to be the right kind of a film and have equal opportunity for both of us.”
“If I have the opportunity and I’m so lucky to be able to work with my brother in a movie, I’ll be super happy. But it’s not something I’m pointedly working towards,” he revealed to DNA.
Sounds interesting right? We hope to see the two brothers someday in a film together and we also hope the day comes soon.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Shahid Kapoor is busy shooting for his upcoming movie ‘Batti Gul Meter Chalu’ opposite Shraddha Kapoor and Yami Gautam while Ishan Khattar is busy with Karan Johar’s ‘Dhadak’ starring Jhanvi Kapoor.

BACKGROUND Interleukin 9 (IL-9) is cytokine produced by a subgroup of helper T cells, known as Th2 cells. IL-9 signals through its receptor IL-9R to induce cell proliferation and survival. Genetically, IL-9 has been identified as a gene associated with asthma.
Recombinant human IL-9 is a non-glycosylated protein, containing 127 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 14 kDa.
Products are for research use only. They are not intended for human, animal, or diagnostic applications.
T-cell growth factor p40, P40 cytokine
Sterile Filtered white lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Recombinant human IL-9 is lyophilized from 10 mM sodium phosphophate buffer, pH 7.5.
Lyophilized product is very stable at -20°C. Reconstituted material should be aliquoted and frozen at -20°C. It is recommended that a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is added for long term storage.
Centrifuge vial before opening. When reconstituting the product, gently pipet and wash down the sides of the vial to ensure full recovery of the protein into solution. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized product with sterile water at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml, which can be further diluted into other aqueous solutions.
Protein Content and Purity determined by:
UV spectroscopy at 280 nm.
RP-HPLC calibrated against a known standard.
Quantitation against a known standard via reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE gels.
Endotoxin level, as measured by LAL analysis, is <0.01ng/ug or <0.1EU/ug.
The activity is determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of human MO7e cells and is typically less than 0.2 ng/ml.

Mumbai: The Thane forest department (TFD) this week is set to send a third and final notice to the producers of the daily soap Nagarjun — Ek Yoddha, ordering them to present themselves before its officials. The show allegedly used a cobra, a protected reptile, in one of its shoots last October.
The producers have been accused of not cooperating with the department’s probe in tracking down the owner who supplied the snake for the shoot. The crew and the producer did not appear before the authorities even though they had been summoned twice.
According to sources, the department has its eye on some suspects and is keen on interrogating them. “There are few people who, despite being summoned, have not turned up even once. They have been giving excuses ever since they were called and apparently are not in town, which is highly suspicious,” said a senor TFD official.
Santosh Kank, a range forest officer, said, “A few people linked to the case have been giving excuses from the start of the month. Moreover, we had called all the people, present during the cake cutting celebration along with the producer, on Wednesday but no one turned up. This happened for the second consecutive time and will not be tolerated. Hence, I will be sending a notice to them.”
Officials from the department want to interrogate everyone who was present for the celebration, as they suspect that a few of them have information about the owner of the snake. Yash Patnaik, the producer of Nagarjun, had last appeared in front of the forest department on March 17. The department sought the attendance sheet of the crew working on the day of the incident and summoned a former co-producer on or before


On Aug. 7, groundbreaking and controversial hip-hop group Public Enemy, yes, with Flava Flav intact, will drop How Do You Sell Soul to a Soulless People Who Sold Their Soul, the outfit’s 13th album in over twenty years. And though Public Enemy’s members may have grown a little older, they’re certainly still on the pulse of changing technology, for the group have opted to release the forthcoming record via revolutionary new music service TuneCore. As a digital music broker of sorts, TuneCore acts as a launching pad for artists to sell their music to online digital music stores such as iTunes and eMusic while retaining all rights and profits for the artist.
“I knew I had a fan base and I wanted to go directly to them,” Public Enemy principal Chuck D said in a statement. “What good is a label? All they do is give you money. And in the area of digital distribution, they can’t do anything better or faster than anyone else.”

I made it!! “MY JAPANESE FOOD” vol.2
December 19, 2016
Hello, this is the Editor-in-Chief of JAPANESE FOOD.

Keep sending us pictures of your Japanese food creations! As you explore our recipes, don't forget to share your pictures and stories!
Now let's look at this month's "MY JAPANESE FOOD"!
Sushi Balls & Teriyaki Chicken
heystefany from the U.S.A (currently living in Japan)
CommentI was taught by a lovely Japanese national how to make these sushi balls and it was way easier than I first thought it would be. Mine aren't as pretty as hers, but they were just as tasty.
The sushi balls and teriyaki chicken both look delicious! The contrast of red and white on the sushi balls is beautiful. In Japan, the combination of red and white is treated as auspicious, and used for celebrations. This might be great for new year’s parties!
This site introduces you to many sushi recipes. By just changing the shapes and toppings, you can make sushi even more fun! Please use the recipes on the site for reference. We look forward to seeing your new creations!
Steven's Tuna Onigiri with a Twist
Steven Dunn from the UK
CommentSomething much simpler than my previous dish. I like onigiri, which I make using a triangular mold and then wrap with nori. My favorite filling is chopped tinned tuna, mixed with mayonnaise, soy sauce, a pinch of sugar, and (the twist) a little English mustard. Note: I find English mustard a good alternative to wasabi. I eat onigiri both as a snack or as part of a meal.
Tuna onigiri with English mustard??? That is a surprise twist! I would imagine the mustard gives it a bit of a sophisticated taste. Japanese tuna onigiri sometimes contains wasabi, too, but I wouldn’t have thought to use English mustard! I must try it!!
This is Steven's second post. I am so happy to see him using our site and having fun making Japanese food and sharing his creations. Thank you so much, and we look forward to more!
RichfromParis from France(currently living in Japan)
CommentThis is my very first Japanese recipe that I cooked when I just arrived in Tokyo. Actually, I couldn't wait to know how to make dashi, one of the most important base ingredients in Japan. It is a great dish for cold weather if you want to warm up. I just love it, it is yummy, simple, healthy, and I am a huge fan of tofu. I tried to take a beautiful picture... Hope you like it : )
Wow! Is this your first time trying to make a Japanese recipe? The tofu is deep fried perfectly and the green onion gives it a great accent. Looks delicious! As RichfromParis says, it is a great recipe for winter. The mild, warm taste of tofu is also one of my favorites.
There are more tofu recipes on our site, so please try making them, too! Thank you very much for the beautiful picture and comment.
We will be sharing more pictures and comments, so stay with us and we'll be waiting for more of your creations!
The picture doesn't have to be perfect, please feel free to post any creations!

This week’s blog post is brought to you by ISEP student Maria N, a junior at Nebraska Wesleyan University majoring in Theatre Arts and minoring in Religion. Maria is currently studying at the University of Hyderabad in India and shares what motivated her to study abroad in India…
If I could do ANYTHING with the rest of my life I would travel. Hence, my journey begins…
Maria study abroad India ISEP Myself and my squirrel, Earl! In January I left my beloved Midwest home, my sunny bedroom, and my dear family & friends to travel to “the land of the gods”…India! Why India, you ask? Well…here is the story:
Studying abroad has been a priority to complete my college experience because I love to travel and encounter other cultures. From day one at Wesleyan, I was looking into the ISEP program and where I could study in another country. Last winter I seriously began looking at where I wanted to go, planning on a spring semester abroad my Junior year. I had my eyes set on the Baltic Region after becoming good friends with an Estonian exchange student. However, in taking a course in world religions, I realized I wanted to study religion while abroad, because, in many countries, religion shapes its culture. Similarly, I decided that, since I hope to do travel extensively later in life, I should study in a country that I may never visit again. The answer suddenly hit me—India.
In India I will be immersed in a culture completely different from America, one that is embodied by religious traditions and strong heritage. India is the birthplace of the world’s major religious traditions, most prominently Hinduism and Buddhism. At the University of Hyderabad, I will be able to take courses in religion, Hindi language, history, and even dance. But I am most excited to explore the city, meet locals, and experience the religious culture firsthand. I hope that this experience will not only give me a greater understanding our world but help me better understand religious diversity and the cultural impact of religion on a deeper level.
Hence, I enter the land of the gods!

The Birth of a Charity
By Rachel Holtom
This is the story of Warming up the Homeless (WUTH) and its volunteers, an inspirational charity which since its humble beginnings now acts as a lifeline for many hundreds of people in need all over East Sussex. The voluntary organisation started seven years ago, yet despite having two
charity shops and a big warehouse in Bexhill – helping people as far afield as Battle and Eastbourne – is still little known in Hastings where it all began.
In November 2015 Bev Woolley woke up on the day before Black Friday and, feeling disgusted with its greed and needless spending, determined to turn the day into what she subsequently called ‘Blanket Friday’. She and a small group of friends then met together and planned how they would go along the seafront and give warm blankets and sleeping bags to people sleeping rough.

Once they had done this Bev realised there was much more to accomplish, so in April 2016 she and her friends organised a gig in the Pig in Paradise, which raised £500. This enabled them to start giving out food as well as protection from the cold and then in Bev’s words: “We realised we needed to become more organised and so started a Facebook page and obtained offices in Hastings”.
They won a community champions award and shortly after this Trudy Hampton became involved as a volunteer. Trudy has an extraordinarily astute business head and quickly realised that she could mobilise people and funds. WUTH was registered with the Charity Commission in 2018, and with a group of volunteers now numbering 300, Trudy has made it into a dynamic organisation which gives out around 600 hot meals, 1000 breakfast packs and receives 2000kg of donated food from supermarkets every week. She is an energetic, self-confessed workaholic, who now as CEO and volunteer puts in 120 hours a week for the charity. “I drive my husband mad,” she says, “but he still supports me.”
Many people have had their lives turned round by Warming up the Homeless, WUTH volunteer Jez is just one of them. He feels that he wouldn’t have survived if it hadn’t been for their intervention, especially as the charity firmly believes that providing food and helping towards more secure accommodation is not enough. Like Emmaus – another charity with a strong presence in Hastings and Bexhill – WUTH believes that giving a person dignity and providing them with a purpose is almost as important as their basic survival needs.
Jez’s story illustrates so clearly how a person with a good job and a stable family can suddenly, through no fault of their own, become derailed to the point where they feel life is no longer worth living.

“I was born in St Leonards Hospital on 25/10/67,” he says, “and lived with my parents in Bexhill till I left home. After various jobs DIYing, I became a regular soldier and did that for 10 years, but once I’d got married and had children decided to leave and get a regular job.
“I worked as a builder doing all sorts, we specialised in maintaining crazy golf courses in Holland, Ireland, Wales and of course Hastings. Last year I was helping to build a swimming pool in Ashford. I was working on the digger, and then I don’t remember a thing. It was a one in a million accident. I’d done all the safety checks; but the digger hit a stone and tipped over and was stopped by my head. My son saw it, everyone thought I was dead.
“I was taken to Kings Hospital by the air ambulance and was unconscious in ICU for 10 weeks. I was told afterwards that there was an 85% chance I’d be a total wreck.
“When I was discharged, I went back to my family in Hastings. I could just about speak, but it was hopeless; I couldn’t stand noise and it was all too much. I spent a while in rehabilitation units, but they didn’t want me to be independent so in the end I decided to act on my own. I got a flat and everything I needed. It was a real battle – they didn’t want me to leave. They wouldn’t give my medication back, but in the end I managed to escape.
“Someone told me about Warming Up the Homeless. I was very doubtful. I went for an interview with Trudy and I decided to give it a try. I didn’t think it was for me. That was last August and now I’m here almost all the time. It’s changed my life, helped me, and now I go out and help people.
“Last night my four children came and had dinner with me, they stayed the night, and I took my son to the train station to get to college, then took my daughter to school. It’s all I want, just that and helping people. I’ve got everything I need now, my independence, somewhere to live, work that helps people and most importantly my children. My wife and I are in touch with each other, but we are happier separated.”
Expanding to meet growing needs
The charity has two shops in Bexhill and is about to open one in Battle. Most people are very aware of the dire lack of accommodation in Sussex, which has been exacerbated to a huge degree by Covid and the influx of people moving from inland towns to the coast to find houses and flats with gardens. This has pushed the cost of accommodation beyond the reach of most local people on a low income and as a result homelessness has rocketed.
As well as the food parcels, breakfast packs and hot meals WUTH also has a rapid response team with a 24hour helpline, a baby bank providing essential items for babies and young children, a bedding bank and drop-in centres offering a safe space with hot food. The charity also has a specialist housing lawyer and recently teamed up with Nationwide to offer bank accounts.
As the story above shows, while the money we donate and the food supermarkets give help people to survive, the shops and running of the organisation itself give people a purpose, a reason to stay alive.
We hope you have enjoyed reading this article. The future of our volunteer led, non-profit publication would be far more secure with the aid of a small donation. You can also support local journalism by becoming a friend of HIP. It only takes a minute and we would be very grateful.

Something is missing in Tom's life and his best friend Dan thinks he has the answer, a mysterious video he's got to see to believe. What Dan shows him leaves Tom unsettled, flooding his mind with disturbing images and desires, and binding the two friends together with its ugly secret. As he tries desperately to forget what he saw, Tom's mounting feelings of guilt and disillusionment quickly give way to paranoia and fear. One video soon follows another and another, blurring the line between reality and voyeuristic fascination, and threatening to dismantle everything around them.

EnergyGuide Violations Cost Online Retailer a $100,000 FTC Fine
Universal Appliances, Kitchens, and Baths Inc. of Ventura, Calif., which does business as Universal-akb.com, agreed to settle FTC charges that it failed to publish mandatory EnergyGuide information on its websites to educate consumers about the energy usage of the major home appliances it carries.Meanwhile, the FTC filed an administrative complaint seeking a penalty of $540,000 against Universal Computers and Electronics Inc., which hasn't responded to FTC charges regarding its failure to publish EnergyGuide information on its websites. The Jamaica, N.Y.-based company does business as universallcdtv.com and used to operate the site Appliancebestbuys.com.
The FTC accused both companies of violated the agency's Appliance Labeling Rule, which helps consumers make informed decisions about their purchases by requiring companies to provide energy use information for such products as refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, air conditioners, water heaters and washing machines.
Since November 2010, the FTC has taken legal action against five companies for allegedly violating the Appliance Labeling Rule. Last year, as Consumer Ally reported, three of the retailers agreed to pay more than $400,000 in penalties for violating the Appliance Labeling Rule.
EnergyGuide information estimates the annual cost of operating an appliance. Under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, the FTC can assess penalties against online retailers that fail to provide EnergyGuide information. The agency must first notify the non-settling companies of the proposed penalty amounts, which it did in all these cases. The companies can then choose to pay the proposed penalty or be sued by the FTC in an administrative proceeding.

Being with a Man Who’s Already Involved in a Relationship
Contrary to popular belief, a lot of women are involved with men that are either married or in a committed relationship. As wrong as this may seem, it’s more common than not.
This article is coming from a perspective that you are having a tough time in this kind of situation. You are wondering if you should stay or leave the relationship or if he’s ever going to want to be with just you. You may also feel, you are doing everything you can to make him happy but not understanding why it isn’t enough. So we will address those issues.
For whatever reason you are with a man who is in a relationship with someone else, there are somethings you need to keep in mind and somethings you need to keep under control as we’ll discuss.
One thing you definitely have to be mindful of is , with all your efforts to try to make the relationship feel like it’s just you and him, you will never get a sense of total satisfaction. You’ll have to understand that you are in fact the other woman, and being the other woman can come with it share of ups and downs.
You have to remember too, that before you came along he was already with his wife or current girlfriend. He’s created history and time with the person he is involved with and you can’t erase that or make him forget that. So don’t try to compete with his relationship. You won’t win at the compete game. You can only win in a sense, by being the sexy, no stress, no drama other woman. With that being said, this still doesn’t erase the history or time he’s already put in with his wife or girlfriend before you came along. So, don’t fall into the trap thinking that this is all that’s needed to make him want to give all his attention to you and/or leave his relationship.
I say don’t fall into the trap because a man that has no plans on leaving his wife or girlfriend, “ain’t” leaving his situation no matter how sexy and good you are to him. You’ll just get more frustrated when you don’t see your efforts going anywhere with him.
Situations like this have to be nipped in the bud early, really. If his actions say he’s not leaving his current relationship anytime soon, you’ll need to decide on one or two things; Deal with it or let it go. No ultimatums. Most times, that will never result in a happy ending. You want someone to come to you because they love you enough to do so, not because you threatened them with leaving. When things are done out of love, it’s real. Love can only exist in a real situation. Everything else is destined for doom.
Honestly though, you can’t be in a relationship with someone like this then say it’s not right or you are not getting out of it what you deserve. If you choose to stay in the relationship knowing he is already involved you are in fact telling him , he doesn’t have to leave because obviously you are going to be around regardless. Also if you choose to stay in a relationship with a man who is involved, then you also choose to take the good as well as the low blows and disappointments that come with it.
Yes, it can be hard to control your feelings when you feel you are not getting all you deserve. But again, if you choose to stick it out then you’ll have to learn to control your emotions when things are not in your favor. You can’t blame him for lonely nights, or times when he has to be at home with her and not with you. Because at the end of the day, you have chosen to be someone who’s in a relationship with someone else.
I’ve heard some women say “He didn’t tell me when we met he was involved”. For lot of women this is what they fall back on and use as the excuse or reason as to why they are choosing to still be in the relationship.
However, whether you knew up front about his current relationship or not, what matters is what you do after you find out. Do you stay? Do you leave? Do you talk to him to find out what he’s going to do? At this point you have to decide what is best for you.
You can spend years with a man that’s says he’s going to leave his relationship or going to get a divorce to be with you. Really, if you are hanging around for years waiting on him to end his relationship, he’s got you in a really bad position. Because you are not getting younger during these years, you could be missing out on what could be the right relationship for you elsewhere. You can’t get the lost years back. You need to act “quick”. I mean I can give you a year or even two years of trying to tackle the waiting game, but to wait for years and years with no clear answer as to if he’s leaving his relationship is madness. You really need to understand what you are giving up to wait. Ask yourself is it worth it or not?
Then too, you don’t want him to just up and leave his situation for you, because this only speaks of the kind of person he could be to you. He should be leaving his current relationship because he truly feels he has no love for it and he is ready in his heart to leave. He’s not leaving for you, he’s leaving because it’s something he would have done even if you were not in the picture. Never ask a man to leave his wife or girlfriend for you. That’s not how you want him to come to you. That is a recipe for disaster.
In conclusion, find out how your man feels about his relationship and what his true intentions are. Then compare that to his actions so you can decide honestly within your heart what you need to do.
Only you know the truth about what is REALLY going on with the man you are seeing. You’ll have to decide on what is best for you and what you are able to handle….. Because it will take a very strong woman mentally in all areas to be in a relationship with a man that is involved with someone else. If you are not mentally strong, if you do not have high self esteem, if you are not strong period, it may be tough for you to handle a relationship of this nature. That’s real talk.
Understand what you can handle and what you are willing to deal with. If you don’t like sharing your man or if you like exclusiveness this kind of relationship may not be for you. You will find yourself stirring up a lot of emotions that will effect the relationship negatively. But the choice is yours. Ultimately it’s up to you, you control your destiny. Choose wisely.
You may also want to read: He Says He Wants to be with Me, Why Won’t He Leave His Girlfriend?
If you are involved with a married man or a man with a girlfriend always be safe as possible. It can get sticky physically and/or mentally if you are discovered. Understand your risks and what kind of people you are dealing with. Eyes open at all times.

Domestic/sexual violence against disabled addressed
by Krystal Paco
Guam - The Guam Coalition Against Sexual Assault and Family Violence is paying special attention to domestic and sexual violence in the lives of people with disabilities with a two-day conference. According to Guam Police Department participant Steve Ignacio, GPD's participation in the event ensures better service for victims with disabilities.
"There's some challenges like if we're dealing with a victim who needs a sign language interpreter," he said. "That's not a resource that's available at the Guam Police Department. By coming to this conference, we're learning that there are resources out there so that we learn to network and collaborate with these other service providers so that should a need arise, we know who to call."
GPD does not yet have data on victims with disabilities, but says it's something they may want to look into.

Forever and Everything #2
by Kyle Bravo Author
Kyle Bravo is back in this second issue of Forever and Everything.
You'll be chuckling along as Kyle battles with his infant son over crayons and nodding your head at the anecdotes about family, especially if you have children.
Artists will empathize with Kyle when he begins to question the reasons why he makes art and begins to withdraw from comics and art all together. He then shows us the importance of pursuing the things that make us feel happy and fulfilled.
Things take a political turn as he weighs in on the current state of affairs and shares with us the strategies that have helped him navigate the Trump presidency.
These autobiographical comics are charming and thoughtful, drawn in a simple style that will have you immersed in the stories before you know it!
