My names Abbey. I’m 25 years old and originally from Bristol, UK but now live in Auckland, NZ. I have been married to my Davey for almost 5 Years and we have two beautiful children together aged 3 and half and 13 months!
I have always been a fan of reading ever since I was little, but as i grew up I just didn’t do it as much. I can remember a friend of mine suggesting i read the first Twilight book so i borrowed it off her and read it straight – literally stayed up untill god knows what time reading and then messaged her in the morning and was like ‘ Hey, uhm do you have New Moon?’ She ended up dropping the rest of series to mine and read them all my Monday morning. Literally started Friday Avo and read straight through!
Life then got in the way of reading, marriage, jobs, moving as such and then came along my daughter. When she was just turning 1 was when Fifty Shades of Grey came out and I remember seeing all the hype about it all over the web so I went out to my local store and purchased it…Can I Just say i was not disappointed! and it most definitely re awakened my reading buzz – alas it didn’t last for long as life once again got between me and reading and it want until my son was born almost 2 years later that I was sat at home bored, flicking through the App store on my iPad that I came across the Kindle App. I downloaded it and was like oh dear this could be dangerous?! So I started surfing through Amazon and thought to my self ‘I could do with escaping reality for a bit’ so I downloaded the Fifty Shades trilogy and read it off my Ipad…. then I started getting emails from Amazon recommending ‘BOOKS SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU HAVE VIEWED’ well let just say that was the end for me… or a quote from Rachel Van ‘Dyken’s – Ruin Series sums it up perfectly…
“Remember what I said, sometimes the end is the beginning”
I’m not here to make a big splash in the blogasphere, I am just here to review the books I love to read and if you get something from it – then all the better.
Lots of Love

Summer Of The PlayStation Vita
So you’ve platinum’d Uncharted: Golden Abyss, beat everyone’s score in Lumines: Electronic Sympathy, and near completion of your Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational career. You ask yourself, “Who’s Next?” like Goldberg in the late 90s and early 2000s. Well here at Wanderson75.net we are looking into the future for what’s to come to the PlayStation Vita. Get your wallets ready and be sure to ask the wife (or husband) if it’s okay, because it’s going to be an awesome summer for Vita owners.
Coming April 17 is a cult favorite that was previously released on the PlayStation 3: Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention. This isn’t just a port from the game that came out years ago, but a remaster for the franchise’s debut into HD handheld gaming. The turn-based strategy RPG will offer all of the released downloadable content from PSN. Also two new characters, more quests and bosses are included to get your RPG-loving self frothing at the mouth.
Mortal Kombat was a huge success for WB Games and Netherrealm Studios last year, and with the power of the Vita, they are bringing it to your hands May 1. Just like Disgaea: AoD this is a port at heart, but added features will place it in its own league. You will still be able to challenge friends as they become foes in ad-hoc or WiFi matches. Kratos makes his appearance in this fighter once again as he did on the PlayStation 3. The touchscreen will also be put to good use, as match progresses you will have to clean the blood splatter off the screen adding a neat challenge to the gameplay. Also mini-games such as one similar to Fruit Ninja are perfect for short bursts of gaming.
One of Sony’s popular shooting franchises is making its debut on the new Vita; Resistance: Burning Skies drops May 29. Many fans will be excited for this title as Resistance: Retribution was a fantastic PSP title that really deserved a lot more attention. The fairly new developer, Nihilistic Software (PlayStation Move’s Heroes), is looking to expand the Resistance universe even more with Burning Skies. Playing as a new hero, Fireman Tom Riley, you are face-to-face with the Chimera invasion but with the help of touchscreen features. The first-person shooter genre is one everyone is watching on the Vita with the addition of a second analog stick.
Konami wants to make it the “Year of Silent Hill”, hot on the heels of their console releases, Silent Hill: Downpour and Silent Hill HD Collection, Silent Hill: Book of Memories comes to us on May 31. This is not your typical Silent Hill game, however, as a new team has swung in a different direction with this one. For one, it’s the first SH to be focusing on co-op multiplayer; yes, finally we can work together to conquer our fears! You create your own character and try to change the past as you find a book with mysterious powers. Fear not, fans, as promised classic monsters will revisit to do what they do best – scare us to death. Also Daniel Licht returns to provide the eerie sounds and music we know and love.
Lego Batman was a surprise hit when it originally released, and finally a sequel has been announced along with a Vita release. While the concept will always throw a gamer off, as it seems targeted toward the younger audience (and it is) the Lego series is a stellar platform franchise. Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes looks to build off of the entire DC comics’ universe when it releases June 1. While details have been kept quiet, it will be interesting to see what Vita hardware features will be used in the game.
Gravity Rush is one of Vita owners’ most wanted games since its unveiling. Fans were saddened to hear it wouldn’t be making it into the launch window with the Vita, but now that it’s April we are a mere two months away from its June 12 release. Using all of the Vita’s hardware features, we play as Kat who must manipulate the world around her to save it from certain destruction. Using the popular cel-shaded art style for the visuals with a touch of brush effects, Gravity Rush is one beautiful looking game. Putting the world in your hands with plenty of ways to transform it, it won’t be a surprise to have people gravitating towards this upcoming Vita game.
Sackboy has made quite the name for himself the past couple years with three different LittleBigPlanet installments. Come June 26, you will be able to explore and create in an all new Sackboy world on your Vita. Using the technology built into the Vita’s front and rear touchscreens and cameras, creating your own unique levels will be easier and will offer more complex scenarios than ever before! New multiplayer features such as play’n’pass and multi-touch will surely draw a crowd of friends. Get your creative juices flowing as this release is just around the corner!
EA Sports has just recently announced their most sports’ franchise and one of the longest running videogame series ever, Madden NFL 2013, is coming to the Vita on August 28. I’m not much of an American Football fan, but EA Sports did a fantastic job with FIFA Soccer, so I am eager to see Madden on the Vita. Hopefully this version will offer connectivity with the PS3 version in some way similar to Sony’s MLB 12: The Show. Stay tuned to Wanderson75.net for more details as they emerge.
So, if you weren’t already impressed with the Vita’s stellar launch line-up, this summer will surely take a toll on your funds and time. After the winds calmed down with the Vita’s launch, owners were looking in fear as there wasn’t a steady software release in March. Well, it looks like Sony is going to be rewarding our patience with some fantastic gaming and numerous types of games to sink our teeth into.

ELITE ADVISOR BEST PRACTICES
Financial and Tax-Related Identity Theft - Part Two
How to help clients if their IRS information has been compromised
By Blake Christian
- Tax-related identity theft is the newest and most dangerous financial problem.
- The IRS has implemented recent steps to reduce the impact of identity theft.
- Once there is a personal data breach, clients and their advisors must move quickly to minimize financial and credit rating damage.
As I discussed in Part One of this article, identity theft is now the most common consumer complaint—with over 10 million total identity theft cases per year. It not only has tarnished the reputations of Fortune 500 brands such as Anthem, Target and Home Depot, but it also has infiltrated security-conscious government agencies, including the Internal Revenue Service.
The IRS has been slow to respond to these issues. However, with taxpayers and Congress turning up the heat, the IRS has recently taken a few positive steps to help prevent and resolve tax identity theft cases. False returns are often filed early in the tax season using the victim’s Social Security number and a revised address so that the thief can benefit from the fraudulent refund.
Once you believe your personal data may have been compromised, it is critical to act quickly, since thieves will not limit the scope of their attack. So consider all of the following steps:
- Subscribe to a credit monitoring service such as www.creditchecktotal.com
- Place a credit freeze at each of the three credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.
- Call the IRS at 800-908-4490 to determine whether anyone has filed a tax return under your name or Social Security number—including for prior years.
- File an Identity Theft Affidavit (Form 14039) with the IRS—see discussion below.
- File an Identity Theft Affidavit with your state tax authorities.
- Obtain an IP (identity protection) PIN from the IRS
- File a police report.
- File a complaint with the FTC at 877-438-4338 or www.identitytheft.gov
In an attempt to prevent these cases, the IRS has created Form 14039–Identity Theft Affidavit. The form was created for taxpayers to warn the IRS if they may be at risk for identity theft so the IRS can flag the account and increase its oversight for suspicious activity. For suspicious returns, the IRS will contact the taxpayer and ask the person for personal information to verify his or her identity. If the taxpayer is unable to respond in a timely manner with accurate information (e.g., prior home and business addresses, AGI on prior returns, etc.), the return will automatically be marked as “fraudulent” and essentially frozen in the IRS’ system. If a taxpayer accidentally answers a question incorrectly or does not know an answer, the IRS representative will typically work with the taxpayer to sort out his or her true identity. An identity thief will typically hang up on the IRS as soon as he or she answers one question wrong! The IRS has also produced this useful information on identity theft.
Since changing the unsuspecting taxpayer’s mailing address is a common method for hijacking refunds, the IRS is closely monitoring any changes in a taxpayer’s address(es). Therefore, self-preparers and paid tax preparers need to be especially careful when completing their clients’ business and home addresses on current filings. Simply adding a “c/o” reference, middle initial, or changing a suite reference can flag a return as potentially fraudulent—thereby delaying processing and timing of refunds.
Once a return has been flagged, the IRS will assign the case to an assistor. When this occurs, the return will no longer be a priority for the IRS, and it can take six months or more to resolve the case. Most taxpayers will not want to wait six months to get their cases resolved, so it’s more important than ever for preparers to complete clients’ returns thoroughly and accurately in the current environment.
If and when a flagged return is finally resolved, the IRS requires that the taxpayer create a PIN to prevent future fraud cases. The PIN is used in place of the taxpayer’s Social Security number in case the thief attempts to file another fraudulent return. The IRS will also send out notices to taxpayers they believe might be at risk of identity theft.
However, the IRS can come up with only a limited number of precautions and resolutions; ultimately, it is your clients’ (the taxpayers’) job to protect their personal information, especially their Social Security numbers. With today’s technology, it is easy to be scammed into entering information on a website that seems trustworthy. Even if information is being sent through an email or text message to a friend, a thief can easily intercept the message or read it on an email server. If email is the only way for clients to send you their Social Security numbers, make sure the email is fully encrypted.
As I mentioned in Part One, you can advise clients to take certain precautions to prevent these breaches from occurring in the first place. Again, here are some precautions that you and your clients can take to prevent identity theft:
- Enroll in various credit monitoring services. Note that most clients can get free credit monitoring services as a result of being a customer of Anthem, Target, Home Depot, or other retailers or financial institutions that experienced a credit card database breach.
- Shred any personal files at home and at work.
- Protect Social Security numbers on the web, over the phone and in letters, etc. Generally speaking, including the last four digits is fine for existing accounts.
- Prevent personal financial information from being shared over the phone unless you are positive who the other party is. A good rule of thumb for incoming calls associated with any accounts is to get the caller’s number, check the number and return the call if it looks legitimate.
- Do not use public Wi-Fi networks when dealing with banking, investment and tax data. Use a secured virtual private network (VPN), and encrypt emails if personal information must be sent via the Internet.
- Many umbrella insurance policies provide services and cover costs to repair damage caused by identity theft.
Identity theft and tax cloning are preferred scams for thieves because of their high financial payoff potential and relatively low risk. Thieves know it’s hard to trace who actually filed the return and obtained the refund.
Furthermore, even when they are caught, white collar crime perpetrators often get off with relatively minimal prison time. To help clients protect themselves against tax identity theft, encourage them to follow the basic rules of keeping their Social Security numbers, dates of birth and account passwords confidential whenever possible.
There’s a high probability that you have clients whose personal information has been compromised via one of the many recent high-profile breaches. All clients should periodically check their credit reports and sign up for credit monitoring (again, this should be free for most). When there is any possibility of a breach of account information, taxpayers should immediately alert the IRS and the state tax authorities so that they can watch for any suspicious activity on the taxpayers’ tax accounts.

If the polls and pundits are right, voters who would likely support progressive, feminist candidates for U.S. Senate this year are more likely to stay home than right-wing conservatives.
We need to prove them wrong.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently issued guidelines suggesting that more women, as well as greater racial, ethnic and age diversity, be included in research trials by companies submitting drug and device applications for review and approval. Unfortunately, the agency stopped short of requiring that companies have greater diversity in their study populations and to study the drug’s effects in those sub-populations.
NOW’s #RealPay campaign was meant to draw attention to how race affects the gender pay gap, but it was also meant to highlight what “mainstream” feminist discourse has been struggling with for decades: inclusion.
To celebrate Father’s Day, we at NOW wanted to highlight the many ways in which everyone in our society – yes, including men – have benefited from the feminist movement.
First publicized over thirty years ago, the lack of women in clinical trial research of drugs and devices is still a serious problem. As CBS’s Sixty Minutes reported on May 25, we now know that women sometimes respond very differently to prescription drugs than men.
It’s tempting to look solely at the wage gap and think the only thing keeping men and women from economic parity is 23 cents. We tend to ignore the other ways women, especially LGBTQ-identified women, women of color, and LGBTQ-identified women of color, are saddled with undo economic burdens because complication is hard.
April 8th recognizes part of the economic disparity women struggle with, and our #RealPay campaign has tried to suss out how race and other societal realities put women at a considerable financial disadvantage. But there is another layer to the way pay discrimination works: LGBT-identified individuals are much more economically vulnerable than their straight counterparts.1… Read more »
Women’s rights activists and conservative pundits alike need to take a look at women’s #RealPay.
There has never been a woman chair of the Fed, and correcting that inequity is long overdue, but it’s also true that Dr. Yellen is the best person for the job, male or female.

Chinese steel industry fascinated the globe when it boomed; it’s fascinating all now at what is being called its peak. And things are supposed to go downhill after reaching their peak. If that’s not what’s happening in China’s case, as apparent from its slow but definite growth, is it really the peak? The Chinese steel industry doesn’t seem capable of a downtrend. That’s the fascination all about.
With technological advancements, China grew to be the largest steel producer and consumer in the world. Now, it accounts for nearly half of the global steel production. Quite understandably, the recent fall in GDP growth rate of the country, to 7% in the first quarter of 2015, has got the global steel industry concerned. The reasons that stand by the downfall in GDP growth are stuck up infrastructure projects leading to low domestic demand for steel. However, even as demand declined, with numerous Chinese blast furnaces unable to shut down operation, the number touched 822.7 mnt in 2014, and doesn’t seem to be slowing down as months go by in 2015. In fact, certain iron ore mining giants are pegging China’s steel production at 1 bnt by 2030 and are planning their own production in line with it.
The surplus produce has been finding its way out as export. Falling domestic demand led China to sell 51% more steel at 93.76 mnt in the world market in 2014. Chinese steel export to India increased by as much as 232% to 3.6 mnt in FY15. Europe, US, Australia and Korea too are finding steel import from China to hem excessive and insufferable, leading them to initiate several anti-dumping actions. China, however, remains unperturbed and is defensive against such actions, with authorities asserting competitive prices as the reason for increased exports.
Steel demand shrinking at its home and economy growing at the slowest pace in past six years, China’s steel output is hitting levels beyond critical. The surplus steel being exported from China is set to pull down global steel prices, which only began to show some improvement recently. Countries like India, who become the recipients of China’s excess steel are worried about their domestic steel scenario.
Meanwhile for China, it seems not the steel peak, but the environment situation has been the more pressing concern. The Chinese government is viewing its economic slowdown as an opportunity to decrease its carbon footprint by re-sizing its steel industry. The country’s need for steel production to fall in pace with slowed demand sits right in the center of President Xi Jinping’s outlook for China moving ahead as a medium growth rate economy, the ‘new normal’. Although, consolidation of the industry by 2025 is on Beijing’s agenda, local steel mills do not seem to be thrilled about the idea. As per sources, the nation’s consolidation plan aims at 60% of its 1 bnt steel production be controlled by the 10 largest companies. While the government and the industry worked in tandem during the boom, the shift in government’s plan sits in distaste with the industry. The government has also opened its steel sector to foreign investment, a move that has seen few takers so far.
While China puts efforts to stand by its steel industry amid dumping allegations, increasing trade frictions and economic slowdown, the country’s local steel makers cannot be entirely blamed of being inconsiderate towards the matter of consolidation and not bringing production in line with consumption to curb excess exports. After all, the mega Chinese steel industry hasn’t been built to support dynamic shifts and turns. As such, the country’s envisioned solution – the economy entering a ‘new normal’, a phrase adopted to reflect a push to manage a slower expansion- is as fascinating as its woes.

A geneticist at the University of Arizona in Tucson, heard about Perry’s unusual Y chromosome and did some further testing. His team’s research revealed something extraordinary: Perry did not descend from the genetic Adam. In fact, his Y chromosome was so distinct that his male lineage probably separated from all others about 338,000 years ago.
Digging deeper, Hammer’s team examined an African database of nearly 6000 Y chromosomes and found similarities between Perry’s and those in samples taken from 11 men, all living in one village in Cameroon. This may indicate where in Africa Perry’s ancestors hailed from.
The first anatomically modern human fossils date back only 195,000 years, so Perry’s Y chromosome lineage split from the rest of humanity long before our species appeared.
What are the implications? One possibility is that Perry’s Y chromosome may have been inherited from an archaic human population that has since gone extinct. If that’s the case, then some time within the last 195,000 years, anatomically modern humans interbred with an ancient African human.
There is some supporting evidence for this scenario. In 2011, researchers examined human fossils from a Nigerian site called Iwo Eleru. The fossils showed a strange mix of ancient and modern features, which also suggested interbreeding between modern and archaic humans. “The Cameroon village with an unusual genetic signature is right on the border with Nigeria, and Iwo Eleru is not too far away,” says Hammer.

Back from my mini vacation in Alabama.
Not much to do there but I did rest and enjoyed quality time with friends which was priceless.
I did visit 2 fabulous quilt shops on the way out of the state and because it was such a long ride , it was basically a hurry up and shop thing so I forgot to take pics.But one is here and the other one here
I did go to Gees Bend just for the novelty of it but the quilts were so expensive that all I came back with was the experience of the great ferry ride and a few pics.
Our Alabama friends did accompany us and they thought it was cool too.
My friends did love the quilt and it immediately went on their bed as can be seen from the picture.

A trio of new picture books about tinkering, disappointment, recovery, determination, sweat and success offers a big dose of history and inspiration to young readers.
“Guitar Genius: How Les Paul Engineered the Solid-Body Electric Guitar and Rocked the World” by Kim Tomsic, illustrated by Brett Helquist. (Ages 5 to 8. Chronicle Books. $17.99.)
Les Paul was the master of invention and reinvention, starting with his own name. He began as Lester Polsfuss, an enthusiastic boy attending a three-room schoolhouse in Wisconsin, so clumsy at reading music that his piano teacher said he’d never be musical. He ended up Les Paul, one of modern music’s greatest inventors, who conquered everything from harmonica holders to, famously, an innovative style of electric guitar. His quest for the sounds he imagined creating “prickled and pestered in his mind” until “finally, the sound he’d dreamed of had come alive.” Hooked on the creation of new sounds, the “unmusical” boy became a hall-of-famer for both music and invention – and this lively picture book details how he did it.
“Samuel Morse, That’s Who!” by Tracy Nelson Maurer, illustrated by El Primo Ramon. (Ages 4 to 8. Henry Holt and Co. $18.99.)
Samuel Morse was born into a slow-moving world, when "nothing traveled long distances fast," and dreamed of success as a painter of grand scenes. His masterpiece eluded him – but people were far more intrigued when he began tinkering with electricity and pondering how it could be used to communicate. As he began working seriously on his telegraph machine, he turned his creative impulses toward solving technical problems, and, incidentally, inventing the dots-and-dashes alphabet named for him. With help from scientifically inclined friends (he was, after all "still an artist at heart"), Morse turned his early struggles into eventual success – a journey described with zippy cartoon illustrations and zaps of humor in this cheerful biography.
“A Dream of Flight: Alberto Santos-Dumont’s Race Around the Eiffel Tower” by Rob Polivka and Jef Polivka, illustrated by Rob Polivka. (Ages 4 to 8. Farrar, Straus and Giroux. $18.99.)
Alberto Santos-Dumont is hardly a household name — but his fascination with flight, machinery and daring adventures made him a hero of early flight experimentation. Vying to break a speed record in his airship, he tried and failed with design after design, but “he learned from each mistake, and always took to the air once more to try again.” Santos became so famous that Parisian bakeries made airship-shaped cookies in his honor — recognizing not just his work to make controlled flight possible but also his daring and determination despite a showy series of crashes and failures. More inventors would come along after him to make the dream of flight an everyday reality, but the quirky Brazilian inventor charted a special part of that path — and the Polivka brothers’ tale of sky-high daring gives Santos the shout-out he deserves.

I was SUPER excited when I found this DIY project!! I actually want to go try this out (maybe a nice little Saturday project?). The colors were what initially caught my eye and then after reading, I learned they were split peas - interesting...right?? I like the look!I really love the idea of using these types of vases for your centerpieces but, the other part of this idea that caught my eye was how easy these would be to reuse in your everyday life. Not only do I try to find items that are inexpensive (but look expensive) to share but, my other goal is to share items that you can use for more than just the BIG DAY! It's always super exciting to find DIY projects that fit my criteria!
So, how to make these super cute hurricane centerpieces? Let's get right into it:
3 vases: There are plenty of places to find these clear glass vases in different shapes and sizes. I would try Dollar Tree, the .99 cent store or thrift shops but, you can also go hunting at garage sales or try the clearance aisle at Michael's. If you have to pay full price, remember to always look for a coupon in the newspaper or online! 3 candlesticks: To keep costs down head out to your local Dollar Tree, 0.99 Cent Store or a thrift shop. Again, check the stores above for these items but, you might also find some at Goodwill or resell shops - also garage sales! As a last resort, hit up stores like TJ Maxx or Ross. It might add to the cost a little bit if you have to shop at a major store. E6000 glue: You can find this glue at Michael's or your local craft store. Make sure you check your Sunday paper or online for a printable coupon to use. Michael's is famous for always having a 40% off coupon. I have never used the E6000 glue but, I have read it dries clear and that is the kind of glue you want to use. When I checked into doing this myself I also found someone who made something similar and they used the Gorilla Glue (I talked about that glue here) and the last item you will need is: Toothpicks
First, wash and dry the vases and candlesticks.
Then, I apply the E6000 glue onto the rim of the candlesticks with a toothpick.
Next, put the vases on top of the candlesticks and apply some pressure. Let them set for a little bit (you could place something heavy on top to set - like a book)
The person who made these hurricane vases used split peas to fill the bottoms but, your options are endless! You can use pebbles, marbles, glass pieces (so many colors to choose from) or even flower petals. You can match your wedding theme and then after use different filler items for different holidays or special occasions! I see these hurricane vases at Pottery Barn and Williams Sonoma all the time...but, thanks to some crafty people we can make these ourselves! LOVE.

It’s been a little over a week since the Philadelphia Eagles did their city proud after winning the Super Bowl and bringing the Vince Lombardi Trophy to the City of Brotherly Love. But the excitement of the win hasn’t died down for Philadelphians, nor has it for folks newly interested in visiting the East Coast metropolis. To meet the demand of the 80 percent increase in guest arrivals Airbnb has seen since the week before the Super Bowl, the platform has launched a series of new experiences in the city.
Airbnb has long offered these so-called experiences for a number of their popular destinations, giving travelers and locals alike the chance to explore a city and discover some of its local treats. The vacation rental company has debuted a total of 40 local-led experiences for Philadelphia for an authentic (but perhaps surprising) look at the largest city in Pennsylvania.
For the foodies in your travel group, you can embark upon Frank’s cheesesteak and history tour, which will not only take folks to the best cheesesteak spots in the city, but also keep them informed of the stories behind the sandwiches. Or if you’re looking for something more health-conscious, you may consider running down the Delaware River to Penn’s Landing and the Race Street Pier, then heading up the Rocky Steps, all in the name of experiencing the sights of sounds of Philadelphia. You will be able to work out while learning about the city’s history and culture and end your day with a meal at one of the city’s popular restaurants.
If you’re interested in music, you could check out The Baby Boomer Music Walking Tour, which will visit all of Philly’s notable music stops and conclude with an organ show performed on the world’s largest working musical instrument — the Wanamaker Organ. And what could be better than a brewery tour and tasting? This guided tour of Dock Street Cannery and Lounge gives you the opportunity to learn about Philadelphia’s brewing history, the brewing process, and some memorable beer recipes.
If you manage to make it into Philly before Friday, February 16, you probably want to check out the Real Chinese New Year, where you will be given an insider’s tour of Philadelphia’s Chinatown and celebrate the lunar new year the way it was meant to be celebrated. You will even learn to make your own dumplings.

Does Your Neighborhood Fit?
Every home buyer has their own take on what neighborhood is right for them. Some home buyers may want historic charm, while others want a family-oriented, and some may want both. Cities such as West Sacramento, Davis, and Woodland each have their own unique neighborhoods offering a wealth of amenities and aesthetic beauty. Depending on your interests, you likely want to find a neighborhood that appeals to you and holds your personal values and tastes. For many people, the neighborhood is as important, if not more important than the home itself.
However, choosing the right neighborhood can be more difficult than actually choosing the home. While many of the neighborhoods highlights can be found out with a simple drive-around, other aspects will require a bit of digging.
Here are some tips to help you make the most of choosing a neighborhood:
You and Your Interests
Every neighborhood is different, and you have dozens of unique neighborhoods to choose from. So, when you are searching it only benefits you to choose a neighborhood that offers amenities based on your family’s needs and interests.
- Children: Children play a big role in where you live. So, making decisions based on schools in the area. How close do you want to be to an elementary school or high school? Do the schools offer courses or extra-curricular activities for your children?
- Types of homes: For many people, the type of home makes a difference. Do you prefer a home that is 100+ years old, or do you prefer to live in a newer home?
- Like-minded neighbors; Do you want a quiet retirement neighborhood, one that is family-oriented, or a younger neighborhood, more vibrant neighborhood?
- Parks and trails: If being outdoors means a lot to you, then a neighborhood with several parks and hiking or biking trails may be something you want to look for. In addition, are waterways, lakes, and rivers.
- Special Interest Amenities: Another factor to consider is, does the area have interests more specific to your taste. For example, if you play tennis, is there a tennis club nearby? Do you enjoy going to the theater, or museum? Are you looking for a neighborhood with art galleries?
Image: Sebastian Sikora
All cities publish information on each neighborhood and community. It is illegal for your real estate agent to offer advice, information, or suggestions on each neighborhood, or offer advice on what neighborhood would be better for you. However, this information is public and accessible to all home-buyers. Some data and statistics you may want to review are:
- School information
- Crime statistics
- Park and recreational areas
- Neighborhood associations
- Tourist attractions, local attractions, and restaurants
Image: Joe Le Merou
Driving through a potential neighborhood can provide you with a wealth of insight. What was your first impression when you drove through the neighborhood? Can you see you and your family living there? Does the neighborhood offer unique restaurants and services you would use? Does a rush hour or commute affect the neighborhood you choose? Do people smile and wave? Is it more congested than you expected, or is it too quiet for you?
Few things can help you determine a potentially new neighborhood better than driving through it at different times of the day.
You will likely have to travel outside your neighborhood for a variety of reasons. Work, visiting family and friends, or recreational activities. How does the location fit with all these activities and are the neighborhood’s amenities good enough that you are willing to forego close proximity if need be?
Lastly is affordability. Simply, can you afford to live in the neighborhood you want to live in? You should look at not only home prices, but also travel time, local taxes, utilities, and everyday prices. For example, depending on what grocery store you shop at, you may be paying a premium of 30% or more for the same item you might buy at a less expensive grocery store. You are more likely to shop at the closest store to you than driving twenty minutes down the road. These smaller purchases may not seem like something to look at now, but in a few months when you realize you are more willing to spend money than sit in traffic to get your food, you might second guess your initial thought on where you purchased your home.

Here are the top ten articles for the Deafness Site! These rankings are live and get reset at the beginning of each month, so check back often to see what your fellow visitors are most interested in!
1. Deaf Blindness - Usher Syndrome
I canít think of anything worse than to be cut off from the world by being both deaf and blind. Recently I have come across a number of people on our Cochlear Implant Experiences Facebook group who suffer from this. How hard their lives must be and I wondered what caused it.
2. Deafness through trauma
Being hearing in a hearing world is what most of us experience. Itís part of our life and something we mostly take for granted. So what does someone do who loses their hearing when they experience a trauma?
3. Why our ears are so important
Most people take their ears for granted. After all you were born with them and just like our eyes or mouth your hearing ability developed without you even thinking about it. Most of us never stop to consider what it would be like if our hearing stopped working.
4. Pregnancy and Hearing loss
Many women report a change in their hearing during pregnancy. Is there a link between pregnancy and hearing loss?
5. Issues faced by Deaf children
As late as the mid-20th century children with a hearing loss were often misdiagnosed and parents were told they had a mental deficiency. Research has found that children must receive stimulation to the auditory nerves during the early formative years.
6. Managing your hearing loss - stages
Managing your hearing loss Ė what stage are you in? Determining what stage of hearing loss you have reached helps you manage it.
7. Can a deaf person drive?
Ever been asked if youíre allowed to drive? Itís not a question most people even think about. But it is one deaf people get asked regularly. Research shows deaf drivers are no better nor worse than hearing drivers.
8. Travel plans
In a few days we are heading off around the world for two months. This means we have to plan how to manage our health and hearing needs well in advance.
Most of us have heard of tinnitus...but do you know what Hyperacusis is? Often these two things are suffered together and those with Cochlear Implants often report Hyperacusis
10. Hearing Loss and Driving Cars
Should hearing impairment stop you from driving? Are there any rules and if so what are they? What does the research show about safe driving for deaf people.
Be sure to visit the Deafness Archives for all the articles!

My Fiancé and I recently moved to the mountain and decided to try Delivino's for dinner.. We have eaten at plenty of restaurants inside and outside of Australia and can honestly say this is one of the best meals we have ever had!!
We ate here a few weeks ago and because it was so good, decided to come back for Valentine's day. Both times here have been just as good as each other!
We shared the Bruschetta for entree which was the best I've ever had... Had the eye fillet steak for dinner which was cooked perfectly and came with a mushroom and onion tart (I'm not a fan of mushrooms but they somehow made it taste awesome)
We then got 2 desserts and shared them both. We had a cookies and cream parfait with berry compote and a salted caramel tart with marscapone. We barely spoke throughout the meals, just too good!!!
We barely ever get entrees or desserts when we go out but it's just too good to pass up here!!
Go to Delivino's... You won't be disappointed!
Oh also, get the lychee cocktail!!!

Available Installation and Alignment Instructions
Allowance for Expansion due to Thermal Growth
Cast iron has a thermal expansion coefficient of 0.0000066 in. per in. per Degree F (0.000012 mm per mm per Degree C). Steel has an average thermal expansion coefficient of 0.0000063 in. per in. per Degree F (0.000011 mm per mm per Degree C).
The engine mounting system must allow for this expansion through the proper use and placement of clearance bolts, fitted bolts, and dowels. Failure to allow for thermal expansion will result in driven equipment misalignment and engine block distortion.
Compensation offsets must be incorporated into alignment procedures to accommodate this growth when alignment is performed cold.
Thermal expansion = Expansion Coefficient × Linear Distance* × Delta T
*Linear distance is the length or width of engine for horizontal growth and the distance between the mounting surface and the crankshaft centerline for vertical growth.
Examples: 3606 - Cast Iron Block, Length of block between rear fitted bolt and front clearance bolt in 87.6 in. (2226 mm). Delta T = 130°F (72°C). Expansion allowance required is:
0.0000066 (0.000012) × 87.6 in. (2226 mm) × 130°F (72°C) = 0.075 in. (1.9 mm)
Collision Blocks for Marine Engines
When marine classification societies or local marine practice requires the use of collision blocks, they should be located with sufficient clearance to allow for thermal growth of the engine. Prefabricate the collision blocks and install them while the engine is at operating temperature with approximately 0.005 in (0.12 mm) hot clearance. Collision blocks are recommended to resist the shock loads encountered in hard docking collisions and groundings.
Types of Misalignment
Parallel or bore misalignment occurs when centerlines of driven equipment and engine are parallel but not in the same plane.
Angular or face misalignment occurs when centerlines of driven equipment and engines are not parallel.
Dial Indicator Quick Check
When both shafts are rotated together, the algebraic sum of the readings at D and B should equal the reading at C. This check is useful for identifying improper indicator setup or procedure. The example shown is out of alignment.
Required Foundation Depth for Stationary Installations
Calculate foundation depth to equal generator set weight by:
FD = foundation depth in feet (meter)
W = total wet weight of generator set in pounds (kg) Use 125% of actual weight if vibration isolators are not used.
D = density of concrete in pounds per cubic foot (kg/m3)
NOTE: Use 150 for English unit and 2402.8 for metric unit.
B = foundation width in feet (meter)
L = foundation length in feet (meter)
Pressure on Supporting Material
Where: P = Pressure in psi (kpa)
W = Weight in pounds (kg)
A = Area in square inches (m2)
Pressure imposed by the generator set weight must be less than the load-carrying capacity of supporting material.

A lightning strike on Saturday started a fire on a tank battery south of Ellinwood, and road conditions contributed to a minor injury crash southwest of Great Bend. As severe weather continues this week in Barton County, Sheriff Brian Bellendir advises motorists and the general public to use caution when traveling.
“Most of Barton County is saturated from rainfall and many rural roads have standing water on them,” Bellendir stated in a news release. “The possibility of rainfall is predicted throughout this week and is going to aggravate the situation. Motorists are advised not to drive through running water and not travel gravel or dirt roads unless necessary.”
Weather also contributed to a two-vehicle collision Saturday on U.S. 56, about seven miles southwest of Great Bend.
Kansas Highway Patrol reports a 2006 Chevrolet pickup driven by Brian T. Moeder, 45, Great Bend, was eastbound on U.S. 56 near Dundee at 6:05 p.m. when it hydroplaned. The driver lost control and the pickup crossed into the westbound plane, colliding with an oncoming 2004 Ford pickup driven by Randall S. Parker, 56, of Larned. Both trucks came to rest in the north ditch.
Moeder was taken to The University of Kansas Health System Great Bend Campus with a suspected minor injury. Parker and his passenger, Traci L. Coulson, 51, of Larned, were also taken to the Great Bend hospital with suspected minor injuries. All were wearing seat belts.
The sheriff urged everyone to use caution. He noted that county and township authorities have barricaded several areas in the county but water may rise unexpectedly, covering roadways during heavy rainfall.

By mid-February 2022, Germany had crossed the 120,000 Corona death mark while 74.8% of all Germans were fully vaccinated. In other words, approximately 25% of Germans remained unvaccinated as the Coronavirus pandemic entered its third year. A conversation with an opponent of vaccination might shed some light on those 25%.
A German anti-vaxxer called Rita Bock (not her real name), still hopes that Omicron will end the vaccination issue. Rita Bock is one of the unvaccinated 25% and she wants to stay that way. The conversation with Rita took place outside a local café. Rita lives in Findorff, a suburb of the north German port city of Bremen. She is in her mid-40s with two children and she used to work in the cultural sector, but plans to become a school teacher.
After a quiet summer, Covid-19 cases have increased significantly in those weeks, not only in former East-Germany’s Saxony and Thuringia, but also in Bavaria. The lack of understanding towards people like Rita Bock remains a problem in Germany. There are lots of discussion on Germany’s ever-favourite political talk shows about the anti-vaccination issues. This extends to hate messages on (anti-)social media and covidiots – a merger of Covid-19 and idiots.
In turn, anti-vaxxers mock the majority of Germans. Anti-vaxxers believe Germans blindly follow the pharmaceutical lobby – big pharma. Such polarisation splits circles of friends and families. If someone is not vaccinated and admits as much, the conversation quickly turns into a rather unpleasant silence. Many fear that communications would quickly become difficult leading to mutual alienation. Yet, the anti-vaxxer Rita Bock wants to try to talk.
Rita has the impression that the critique on vaccination gets too little attention in the media. On the other hand, she believes that many unvaccinated people in the intensive care units are not properly accounted for. And, she also does not see that her decision against vaccination has serious consequences for everyone. Since, unvaccinated people experiences restrictions, social pressure affects Rita Bock’s daily life. The everyday life of the unvaccinated is rather different from those vaccinated.
Any conversation with an anti-vaxxer is likely to derail. There are friendships at stake. “Are we still wearing a mask or not?,” asks Rita. Rita Bock wears a cardigan and jeans with her long blond hair tied at the back. She laughs and says, “I’m not afraid of Corona” as she quietly takes off her masks. Rita quickly moves to the informal “Du” almost automatically.
Rita is afraid and she believes that anti-vaxxers are currently being attacked. And, she seems affable and friendly while she talks calmly. At times, she raises her eyebrows in disapproval, for example, when the talk moves to 2G, which stands for vaccinated [geimpft] and recovered [genesen].
Rita can’t be met inside a café because she is no longer allowed in. She perceives this as harassment. “We have to stay outside as if we were dogs,” she says. Rita Bock goes to the local swimming pool regularly. As a teenager, she had a car accident while hitchhiking. She broke her back. “I need to swim or I’ll be in pain,” she explains. But even the pool is only accessible with proof of vaccination. “This is really hard for me … the reasons is 2G,” she added.
Until November 2021, Delta was the most common Coronavirus variant. If unvaccinated people have fewer contacts, then clinics will not be overloaded so quickly. Vaccinated people are less likely to get infected with Delta. It they do get infected, they are less contagious than unvaccinated people, according to Germany’s Robert Koch Institute.
Rita Bock says she always gets tested to avoid infections, “I have no problem with that.” But she still feels excluded. She says, “we no longer discriminate on the basis of skin color or gender, but on the basis of our individual life choices.” Getting vaccinated in order to be able to go to restaurants, or to the local swimming pool is out of the question for her. I will not be blackmailed, Rita says.
Rita Bock has a dicey relationship with conventional medicine. Throughout her life, she struggled with chronic inflammation. Antibiotics and cortisone didn’t really help. At some point, her doctors even told her she was cured. But she wasn’t. Eventually, Rita turned to a homeopath. With that, she started to feel better.
Today she says, “I can’t explain it either, but I’m really happy that I have a functioning immune system since then. Vaccinations are a great invention,” she admits, “but they are always an intervention.” Yet, Rita had her children vaccinated against measles, but not against mumps and rubella. But when it comes to Corona, Rita believes that it is always possible to find an alternative way.
Despite all this, the first TV pictures from Bergamo had hit her hard. She felt the lockdowns were necessary. At that time, Rita thought that she probably needs to get vaccinated. That changed last year. Rita had finished her university studies in the summer and listened to podcasts from biologists and doctors from the USA. On YouTube, she came across a video about Ivermectin. Ivermectin is a drug that is usually used to treat scabies and worm infestations. The FDA says, You Should Not Use Ivermectin to Treat or Prevent COVID-19.
Ivermectin helps with Covid, the video Rita was watching said. However, shortly after Rita had watched it, the video was deleted. In fact, there was a bit of a hype about Ivermectin in the USA in 2021. A group of doctors praised the drug as a miracle weapon against Corona – they were wrong! They also said that it has a preventive effect – wrong again! Neither the WHO nor the American health authorities have confirmed its effectiveness to this day. Nevertheless, many Americans got the medicine and took it for which some people had to be treated for poisoning.
Rita suspects that there must be a reason why posts about the alleged benefit of the drug were suddenly deleted. Rita believes it is censorship, as she calls it. She remains suspicious. Yet, when she searched the Internet, she found more positive reports about Ivermectin. These were also removed shortly after she had found them. She is convinced that Ivermectin helps, but the information was suppressed.
Rita says, “this is also very easy to explain … there is no money to be made with a drug that has been on the market for a long time.” Rita believes that there is an effective drug, but that politics and science are withholding this remedy from people because their patent protections have long expired and – unlike the new vaccination – they would not make any profit.
Rita really believes that the pharmaceutical lobby is strong. It all seems plausible to her. Rita also dealt with the mRNA vaccines. But she remains highly critical of them saying, “you can call this a gene therapy in good conscience.” She believes that gene therapy means that your DNA in the cell nucleus will change. German research says otherwise.
Germany’s Paul Ehrlich Institute found that this is very unlikely stating that this is not a recognisable risk. Rita Bock is not convinced. She says, “I would like to take a close look at all this for a good few years.”
In German society, Rita Bock is in the minority. Rita feels the need to arm herself against criticism. Perhaps that is the reason why she constantly reads up on the topic. Not only in the popular media, but also on Internet sites, such as the popular anti-vaxxer online magazine, Multipolar.
Rita believes that on Multipolar, you can find articles about the fact that the media mainly provides government propaganda and that the number of Corona patients in hospitals is massively exaggerated.
Yet, Rita remains an exception in her circle of friends and acquaintances. Like Rita, her husband does not want to get vaccinated. Yet, her closest friends are all vaccinated. Rita says, “they think it’s legitimate that I don’t want it.” When they meet, Rita tests herself beforehand, even if the friends do not demand it from her. There are additional experiences, for example, with your neighbor.
The neighbor’s children are of the same age. Rita and her children were always invited to family birthdays. Not this year. She believes she just has another opinion. It really hit me, she says.
Traditionally, Rita had voted for Germany’s environmental party, The Greens. But not last September during Germany’s federal election. Rita says, the Greens no longer work for me. She believes that the Greens portray all those who do not want to be vaccinated as lazy and stupid. Yet, it is scary to her as she sees her position on vaccination and the Coronavirus pandemic are most closely represented by Germany’s Neo-Nazi party the AfD.
Eventually, Rita voted for Germany’s socialist party, the Left Party. The Left’s outspoken Wagenknecht supports anti-vaxxers. Rita says, “I can sign up to what Sahra Wagenknecht says.” Yet, Wagenknecht is highly controversial inside the Linke Party.
Rita believes that the fear from Corona is changing German society. She says, “it’s like with children … you can scare children, then they are more likely to obey. But in the long term, you have a frightened child.” Rita refers to a paper issued by Germany’s Interior Ministry (March 2020). And indeed, Germany’s federal government suggested that Germans should be scared so that the Coronavirus pandemic would not be trivialized. In order to achieve this desired “shock effect”, fear should be used.
By early 2022, the majority of Germans in intensive care units were still the unvaccinated. They were an enormous burden for nurses and doctors. Important treatments and operations had to be postponed. Worse, those who do not get vaccinated are not only endangering their own lives, but also the lives of others. Rita doubts such facts and statistics. She emphasizes, “many vaccinated people are also in intensive care units.” She also claims, “there was no overloading of ICUs.”
Rita says,” if clinics were facing overload problems, our health system has to be better equipped … hospital beds should not be reduced. As she refers to herself, Rita says, I’m not 70 years old, I’m not a smoker, I have no previous illnesses. My risk of ending up in intensive care is not particularly high … I would like to decide for myself whether I will have a new [meaning: somewhat untested] medicine injected into me or not.”
If Corona catches up to her, she will take Ivermectin. Rita believes that this would prevent the worse. For Rita, Corona and the Coronavirus pandemic are scaremongering. She assumes that there has long been a useful drug preventing severe causes. An overloading of clinics could be prevented. Therefore, vaccination is not an act of solidarity for Rita.
In her eyes, you could just let Corona run its course. This is Rita’s suggestion on how to get out of the Coronavirus pandemic – a dangerous suggestion that would costs many more deaths than the 5.9 million we had as of February 2022.

Will This Bike-Car Hybrid Change the Future of Urban Transportation?
A German manufacturing company has developed a bicycle/car/moped hybrid that could change how people travel around cities.
Photo credit: Schaeffler
Schaeffler, a major manufacturer of parts for the automotive and aerospace industries, created the Schaeffler Bio-Hybrid—a vehicle small enough to fit in the bike lane, but that has motor assist and is easily parked. The company plans to build 30-40 Bio-Hybrids for user feedback tests to be conducted in a city in southern German in 2017.
Patrick Seidel, innovation manager at Shaeffler, called the Bio-Hybrid a "solution for future urban transport."
At 2 meters (6.5 feet) long, 1.5 meters (5 feet) tall and 80 centimeters (31 inches) wide, the bike combines pedal-power and electric motors to move. It is easily maneuvered, only weighing 80 kilograms (176 pounds), and is emissions-free, The Guardian reported. Seidel said the weight of the bike might be reduced as the model is improved.
"It may be a little over-engineered at the moment, but we want to prove the concept," Seidel told The Guardian.

The Bio-Hybrid's two batteries are located under the seat, easily accessible and light weight enough to be carried inside for charging. Three to 4 hours are required for full charge, but those batteries then power the bike for a range of 50 to 100 kilometers (31 to 62 miles).
Electric-assisted rides are available up to 15 mph, according to Schaeffler. The Guardian's Damian Carrington describes how it feels to drive the Bio-Hybrid:
You just start pedalling. The battery-powered assist kicks in automatically and off you go at a pleasant clip. Pedal faster and the automatic and continuous gears slide upwards to get you up to 15mph, when the assist ends. The racing-style steering wheel (handlebars?) turns the Bio-Hybrid smoothly and the hand lever-operated disc brakes bring you to a smart stop.
Drivers can vary the level of assist they receive while driving the Bio-Hybrid. A setting of zero gives the biker complete control over the speed of the vehicle, if desired, or they can set the assist at maximum for an easy, laid-back ride. There is also a reverse setting, Carrington said, to help with parking and turning.
Electric assist isn't the only customizable portion of the Bio-Hybrid, the seat and steering wheel, The Guardian said, are adjustable as well.
The bike's roof can be removed and stored behind the seat to create a convertible feel and look. Schaeffler's Bio-Hybrid also comes with a coat hook behind the seat and a luggage rack on the back.

There are a few problems that might have to be fixed, depending on local laws, if the Bio-Hybrid enters the market, such as the lights and mirrors. Carrington wrote:
The integrated lights at the front and back give the Bio-Hybrid a groovy look, but night riders would need to attach more lumens to be safely seen. There are also integrated orange indicators lights, though these would mean the vehicle becomes a car in German law.
"New concepts do not always fit into the legal environment of the moment," Seidel said.
Carrington said the visibility over the driver's shoulders is fine.
Seidel expects the Schaeffler Bio-Hybrid to be pitched with a cost between 2,500 euros (almost $2,800) or even above 7,000 euros ($7,800), which is equivalent to the price of low-end electrical cars.

Shower shoes? Check. Extra-long sheets? Yep. Energy efficiency checklist? No worries — we've got you covered there. If you're one of the nation's 12.1 million full-time undergraduate college students, you no doubt have a lot to keep in mind as you head off to school. If you're reading this, climate change is probably one of them, and with one-third of students choosing to live on campus, dorm life can have a big impact on the health of our planet. In fact, the annual energy use of one typical dormitory room can generate as much greenhouse gas pollution as the tailpipe emissions of a car driven more than 156,000 miles.

Kokia drynarioides is a small but significant flowering tree endemic to Hawaii's dry forests. Native Hawaiians used its large, scarlet flowers to make lei. Its sap was used as dye for ropes and nets. Its bark was used medicinally to treat thrush.
States that invest heavily in renewable energy will generate billions of dollars in health benefits in the next decade instead of spending billions to take care of people getting sick from air pollution caused by burning fossil fuels, according to a new study from MIT and reported on by The Verge.
Hawaii's Kilauea volcano could be gearing up for an eruption after a pond of water was discovered inside its summit crater for the first time in recorded history, according to the AP.

From where I stand inside the South Dakota cornfield I was visiting with entomologist and former USDA scientist Jonathan Lundgren, all the human-inflicted traumas to Earth seem far away. It isn't just that the corn is as high as an elephant's eye — are people singing that song again? — but that the field burgeons and buzzes and chirps with all sorts of other life, too.
Humanity faced its hottest month in at least 140 years in July, the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said on Thursday. The finding confirms similar analysis provided by its EU counterparts.

Indonesia's president has made permanent a temporary moratorium on forest-clearing permits for plantations and logging.
It's a policy the government says has proven effective in curtailing deforestation, but whose apparent gains have been criticized by environmental activists as mere "propaganda."

Movie studio AI predicts who will like a film based on its trailer | AI
In a world… where artificial intelligence seems unstoppable, one studio has developed algorithms that can predict what kind of audience will go to see a movie when it is released just by analysing film trailers.
Working out who will find a movie appealing is not an easy task. Film companies get anonymised data on who watches a movie after the fact, but by that point trailers to run alongside it have already been selected.
A team at 20th Century Fox wanted to know whether an automated system could predict …
