Obedience Dachshund Dog Training
Obedience Dachshund dog training consists of a few major commands. These commands are sit, down, stay and come. All of these actions are essential for your Dachshunds safety. You will want to start teaching them obedience training at an early age. Some of the supplies you will need to start are a collar/harness, leash and treats. Make sure the treats are low fat healthy treats; try to stay away from hotdogs and cheese.
Before you begin with the Dachshund training, just remember keep the sessions short. If you notice that your dog is showing one or more of the following symptoms then the session has gone on to long or they have not gotten enough praise from you.
- Tucking tail between legs
- Lowering head
- Running away
- Standing completely still with no response
- Excessive panting or drooling
- No eye contact
- Ears are back
- Urinating submissively
- Rolling over and lifting leg
- Baring teeth
If any of these symptoms occur then stop the session and let your Dachshund relax. Obedience Dachshund dog training can sometimes be stressful. Pick up where you left off the following day. Remember that training should be fun for both your Dachshund and you.
Sit- First hook the leash to your Dachshund and hold it in your left hand. In your right hand hold a treat, let your dog smell or lick the treat. Do not let them eat it right away though. Now come the Dachshund dog training. Tell your dog to “sit” while you raise your hand with the treat in the air above their nose. Make sure that the treat is high enough so that your Dachshund has to look at the ceiling. When they bend their head to look up they will sit to keep their balance. When your Dachshund sits make sure to congratulate them and give them the treat. If for some reason your dog does not sit then put slight pressure on their back end until they do. Remember to praise them and give them their treat. The praising is a lot more important than the treats are because at some point you will want your Dachshund to sit with out a treat for reward. Treats should only be used for new tricks or commands and then wean them off of the treats.
Down- The next Dachshund dog training command you should teach is “down.” The down command is perceived as a difficult command by your dog. This position is a submissive position for them to be in. If the command is not taught right your Dachshund could either be afraid or aggressive toward the down position. Follow these simple steps and you and your Dachshund should do just fine. First you will want to sit on the floor, holding the leash in your left hand. Have your dog come and sit next to your left leg facing the same direction you are. Show your dog that you have a treat in your right hand, let them smell or lick it. Put your left hand on top of your dog’s shoulders, not on their spine. This had is there only to guide your dog, not to push or force your dog. Now tell your Dachshund “down” in a very soft tone while you place your right hand, with the treat, at their nose. Move your right hand down to the floor by your dog’s front feet. If they do not go down right away move your right hand along the floor away from them. Once your Dachshunds elbows touch the ground praise them and give them the treat. Keep working on this command making each time they are down a little longer. Soon they will get more comfortable with this command and know that they will be ok.
Stay- Once you have accomplished the sit and down in Dachshund dog training you are ready for the “stay” command. First start by holding the leash in your left hand and have your dog sit on your left side. Once again you will have a treat in your right hand. Bend down and show your Dachshund part of the treat. As they are licking the treat tell them “stay.” As you say the command step in front of your dog facing them, your right hand with the treat should still be in front of your Dachshund letting them lick it. Now step back to your original position so that your dog is on your left side again. Once in this position give them the treat and praise them. Keep using this method; in seven to ten days try putting some space between you and your dog when you are facing them. Hold up the palm of your hand to them while you tell them to “stay.” Your Dachshund will catch on; they will know that they do not get the treat until you return to their side.
Come- When Dachshund dog training the command word “come” should always be enjoyable for your Dachshund. Some times when humans call their Dachshunds they have a tone to their voice either because they are anxious or upset. Your dog can hear these tones and will not come to you or be very scared of this command. One way around this is to teach a different command “where are you.” You will first want to start teaching this command by playing a game. Have several people in your family get a treat and then go hide someplace in the house. One at a time call your Dachshunds name and then say, “Where are you.” When your dog finds you praise them and give them a treat, then on to the next person. By playing this game your Dachshund gets used to coming to everyone’s voice in your family and they know when they find you they get a treat and praise. This game is fun, therefore when you call out “where are you” your Dachshund should always come to you.
As you can see that teaching basic Dachshund dog training can take some time but it is not difficult. A well-trained Dachshund is much nicer to live with than a non-trained one, not to mention the safety aspect of it. Just remember that practice makes perfect. Keep your training sessions short, five minutes, and to the point. When holding training sessions make sure that you are in a good mood, your Dachshund feeds off of your mood. Never let your Dachshund fail or feel like a failure. Always tell them they are doing well and praise them. This will make your Dachshund want to work harder for you next time. Just have fun and enjoy each other’s company.

An isogeometric finite element approach to fibre-reinforced composites with fibre bending stiffness
Research output: Contribution to journal › Article
In the modelling of fibre-reinforced composites, it is well established to consider the fibre direction in the stored energy in order to account for the transverse isotropy of the overall material, induced by a single family of fibres. However, this approach does not include any length scale and therefore lacks in the prediction of size effects that may occur from the fibre diameter or spacing. By making use of a generalised continuum model including non-symmetric stresses and couple-stresses, the gradient of the fibre direction vector can be taken into account as an additional parameter of the stored energy density function. As a consequence, the enhanced model considers the bending stiffness of the fibres and includes information on the material length scale. Along with additional material parameters, increased continuity requirements on the basis functions follow in the finite element analysis. The isogeometric finite element method provides a framework which can fulfil these requirements of the corresponding weak formulation. In the present contribution, the method is applied to two representative numerical examples. At first, the bending deformation of a cantilever beam is studied in order to analyse the influence of the fibre properties. An increasingly stiff response is observed as the fibre bending stiffness increases and as the fibre orientation aligns with the beam’s axis. Secondly, a fibre-reinforced cylindrical tube under a pure azimuthal shear deformation is considered. The corresponding simulation results are compared against a semi-analytical solution. It is shown that the isogeometric analysis yields highly accurate results for the boundary value problem under consideration.

I heard that Karimoku has opened a new showroom in Minami Aoyama, which will be the new base "Karimoku Commons Tokyo". The place is a quiet area that entered the residential area from Kotto-dori in Omotesando. The clean concrete building has 3 floors, and the 2nd and 3rd floors are showroom-style spaces where Karimoku's masterpieces are lined up. The first floor, which is fully equipped with a kitchen, will be used as a gallery space.
The first exhibition of Basket club is being held. Basketclub is a project launched in Corona by Jamie Wolfond from Canada and Adrianus Kundert from the Netherlands, which sends out the creativity created by "knitting", and new works by Karimoku creators are also exhibited along with this exhibition. I will. Even though the works of a wide range of creators from all over the country are gathered, it was an exhibition where you can feel a Japanese look and get a glimpse of the range of creativity of knitting (until 31st). By the way, next time from April 5th, bicycles using tokyobike and the developed wood will be lined up.
The last thing I was interested in in the showroom was this stool. Since it is a two-legged set, it has a name called AA stool and a simple design that seems to be easy to use. Is good.

The first commercially-successful machine gun was the Gatling gun, patented in 1861. This multi-barrel weapon was operated by hand-crank and could achieve a firing rate of around 200 rounds per minute, assuming the soldiers could keep reloading the cartridges fast enough. The gun was first used during the siege of Petersburg, Virginia, during the American Civil War in 1864-5.

Your mental health influences how you think, feel, and behave in daily life. It also affects your ability to cope with stress, overcome challenges, build relationships, and recover from life’s setbacks and hardships.
Strong mental health isn’t just the absence of mental health problems. Being mentally or emotionally healthy is much more than being free of depression, anxiety, or other psychological issues. Rather than the absence of mental illness, mental health refers to the presence of positive characteristics.
Health isn’t just about the body. You have to take care of your mind too. Most people neglect mental health, which leads to serious problems for them and those around them. Problems with mental health can have various causes, but all the experts agree on one thing – people in strong relationships have much less mental problems than those who aren’t. To realize if you are in a strong relationship and discover some surprises – keep reading.
Everyone deserves to be in a healthy, loving relationship and with the right person by your side, a healthy relationship is completely attainable.
Recognize that all relationships have their ups and downs. Just as you can’t expect to be happy all the time, you shouldn’t expect your relationship to be at a continuous high. When you make a long-term commitment to someone you have to be willing to ride the highs, as well as the lows, together.
You may think that strong relationships are long-lasting marriages, but that’s not necessarily true. Some couples spend 50 years together, and their relationships never become strong. What’s even worse, they suffer from mental issues caused by their toxic relationships without even realizing it. They blame other things but can’t realize that the cause of their problems is sleeping next to them. Then they die, bitter and angry before they’ve even tried to make their relationship better. Don’t be like that. Work on your relationship.
There are 2 crucial things for every strong relationship:
If you don’t trust your partner or vice-versa, you’ll never be happy, and your mental health will suffer. If you keep thinking about things she/he is doing while they are not with you, that will drain your energy. People usually don’t trust their partners when it comes to cheating and money. Trust is the foundation of every strong relationship, so if you don’t trust your partner talk about it. Work it out if you can, if you can’t break up while nobody gets badly hurt mentally.
As you can see, communication is equally important for a strong relationship. If you can’t talk about your problems, they’ll keep getting bigger, you’ll keep getting angrier and sadder. And no, quarrels don’t count as a form of healthy communication. Now get ready for the surprise. Even casual relationships can be strong in both of you speak about your wishes and trust each other. Some people have stronger relationships with their hookup buddies than some people have with their marriage partners. The key is to put your cards on the table and let your partner know what bothers you. If both of you do that, your mental health won’t suffer, and you’ll be happier than ever.
Some couples can communicate only while arguing. That isn’t good for everybody involved (partners, kids, family, friends). Quarrels will happen, that’s normal, but if that’s the only way you can speak to each other – break up while you can. It’s better for both of you.
Constant arguments will make you anxious all the time. You won’t be able to find peace even while alone because you’ll think about arguments for your next fight. That will lead to depression because you won’t think about anything other than your toxic relationship. Depression will then cause more severe mental issues and start ruining your physical health too. So if you’ve just realized you’re in a relationship full of fights – sit down with your partner and speak about your problems without yelling or being toxic. That won’t fix things the same day, but that’s an important step towards making your relationship stronger. If you realize there is no chance to fix your relationship, break up. Nobody is more important than your health and happiness, don’t ever forget that.
You’ve just learned that casual relationships can be strong, too, so you want to try it out? Great, the best way to get a casual relationship is to meet somebody online on a specialized dating site. People there are looking for casual relationships, so you can start building a strong relationship. You won’t think about cheating because you won’t care, that’s the beauty of open relationships. Everybody is in it just for fun, and with that in mind, it’s hard to get hurt. You can even have more than 1 casual relationship. Sometimes it’s not easy to make contact with your lover that ultimately affects mental health, but guys from the dating site proposed to do an interesting experiment.

Food safety is important because it keeps us healthy and prevents us from getting sick. We all love to eat tasty and safe food, but sometimes, there are hazards that can make our food unsafe. So, when we eat, we want to be sure that the food we’re consuming is safe to eat.
There are three types of food hazards that can make food unsafe. Think when you eat something, you want it to be safe and not make you sick, right? There are biological hazards, chemical hazards, and then we have physical hazards. Hazards are hidden dangers that can make us sick if we’re not careful.
So, to keep our food safe to eat, we need to find out for physical, chemical, and biological hazards. Understanding these hazards is the first step in making sure the food we eat is healthy and delicious.
Food can become unsafe to eat when it contains harmful chemicals or contaminants. These hazards come from pesticides, additives, things that get into food during processing, and stuff from the environment.
How Chemical Hazards Can Make Food Unsafe
Chemical dangers can make food unsafe by adding harmful substances or toxins. When these chemicals get into our food, they can make us sick in the short term or over a long time. For instance, this could happen if there are too many pesticides, food additives, or heavy metals like lead or mercury in what we eat. These things can seriously harm our health.
Statistics of Food Safety Issues Related to Chemical Hazards
Many times, food safety problems have come up because of chemicals. Take, for example, when unauthorized chemicals are added to food or leftover pesticides on fruits and veggies. These issues have caused recalls and worried people about their health. Organizations like the FDA and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) regularly check and tell us about these harmful chemicals in our food.
1. Prevention Method
Awareness of Food Safety Standards on Chemicals
To keep yourself updated on food safety rules concerning chemicals, you ensure your food has no dangerous chemical stuff in it. This helps make sure that the food you buy is safe to eat.
2. Biological Hazards
Biological hazards in food are all about harmful germs like bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi that can make you sick if you eat them. These germs are a big worry in food safety because they can make many people sick and cause serious health issues.
How Biological Hazards Make Food Unsafe
Biological hazards in food happen when tiny organisms grow inside it, making eating harmful. These tiny organisms can create poisons or infect the person who eats the food. This can cause sickness, throwing up, having diarrhea, getting a fever, and sometimes even needing to go to the hospital or, in the worst cases, dying.
Statistics of Food Safety Issues Related to Biological Hazards
Foodborne illnesses caused by germs in our food are a big problem. Every year, many people get sick from eating contaminated food, and many of these illnesses happen because of harmful germs. To give you an example, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) keeps an eye on outbreaks of diseases such as salmonellosis and Campylobacter infections.
1. Prevention Method
Practice Food Hygiene
It’s really important to handle food safely. This means you should wash your hands with handwash before and after touching food, make sure raw and cooked foods don’t mix, and cook food thoroughly to make sure it’s safe to eat.
2. Physical Hazards
Physical hazards in food are things that shouldn’t be there, like objects or substances, that can accidentally end up in food when it’s being made, stored, or handled. These hazards are a big worry for food safety because they can really harm people who eat the food.
How Physical Hazards Can Make Food Unsafe
Physical hazards in food pose various risks. They can harm consumers, contaminate food, and create legal and financial problems for food producers. These hazards can be things such as broken glass, metal bits, plastic fragments, or wood splinters that accidentally end up in food.
Statistics of Food Safety Issues Related to Physical Hazards
Physical hazards in food happen quite often. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other government groups keep records of things found in food that shouldn’t be there. This can make companies have to take their products off the market, get sued, and lose customers’ trust.
Perform a complete inspection of raw materials, ingredients, and finished products to ensure safety. Use visual inspections and physical checks to find any foreign objects before they can reach consumers.
All in all, we have learned about three types of hazards that can make food unsafe. These hazards are things that can harm our health when we eat contaminated food. Biological hazards are tiny germs such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Chemical hazards are substances that can sneak into our food. These might be cleaning chemicals, pesticides, or even natural toxins in some foods.
Consuming food with these chemicals can lead to health problems. Physical hazards are things you can see and touch. To stay safe, we must handle food carefully and cook it well. This way, we can enjoy our meals without worrying about getting sick.
So keep food clean and cook it right; that’s the recipe for safe and tasty meals!

Alleged sleep scare for teen
A KEPNOCK man has faced court accused of breaking into a backpacker hostel and climbing into a teen's bed early Wednesday morning.
It is alleged the man broke into the Dingo Blue Backpacker Hostel on Burrum St about 3.30am on Wednesday and climbed on to the top bunk where a 19-year-old German backpacker was sleeping.
Bundaberg police Detective Senior Sergeant Joe Hildred said it was alleged when the girl woke to find the man leaning over her, he placed his hand over her mouth to stop her from screaming.
Police allege a scuffle then ensued, which saw the victim and offender land on the ground, causing another backpacker to come to the girl's aid.
The man allegedly punched another backpacker in the face before trying to run away.
Det Snr Sgt Hildred said witnesses apprehended the man until police arrived.
The 24-year-old Bundaberg man yesterday faced Bundaberg Magistrates Court charged with deprivation of liberty, breaking and entering and two counts of assault causing bodily harm.
The matter has been adjourned to November 28 for a bail application. The man has been remanded in custody.

Sunil Gavaskar gave the cap to Iyer. Iyer may be struggling with poor form after recovering from injury, but he has a great record in first class cricket. Iyer has also scored a double century in first class cricket. In 2017, he played an unbeaten 202 against Australia for India A. In first class cricket, Iyer has hit 108 sixes and 539 fours in 92 innings of 54 matches. That is, even in long format cricket, Iyer’s style is a bit like limited overs cricket.

U.S. bank regulators launched a foreclosure-review process to compensate homeowners who were "financially harmed" by robo-signing and other foreclosure-processing problems that surfaced last year.
But it is an open question as to how many borrowers will benefit from the reviews. In the weeks leading up to its formal unveiling Tuesday, banks have grumbled about the extensive effort the process requires, while borrower advocates have said it wasn't transparent and did too little to hold banks accountable for past mistakes.
Banks have hired outside consultants to handle the review process, and they began sending letters on Tuesday to about 4.5 million borrowers who were in some stage of foreclosure in 2009 or 2010. The letters say that they might be eligible for a review.
To Petition for a Foreclosure Review
- Call the toll-free number: 888-952-9105
- Visit the website: www.independentforeclosurereview.com
The reviews cover 14 of the nation's largest banks and are being overseen by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Reserve. Eligible consumers must petition for a review by April 30, 2012, and can do so by calling a toll-free number or visiting a central website. The toll-free number is 888-952-9105, and the website is www.independentforeclosurereview.com.
The review process is one of several efforts to address revelations that surfaced a year ago over banks' use of so-called robo-signers, a term for employees who signed off on numerous foreclosures and falsely claimed to have reviewed each case.
For the past year, bank executives have said they found few, if any, cases where borrowers went through foreclosure without being in default on their mortgage. But some homeowners have said that their homes were sold through foreclosure while they were in the process of completing a loan modification.
Under the new system, borrowers would only be eligible for restitution if reviewers determined they suffered some type of "financial harm." Officials said that could include borrowers who lost their homes to foreclosure while they were protected by a bankruptcy action, or borrowers who were charged improper fees during their foreclosure process. Reviewers' decisions couldn't be appealed.
The reviews have little precedent in bank regulation and run the risk of frustrating banks and borrowers alike. Lenders have hired hundreds of employees to conduct the labor-intensive reviews.
"You're dealing with a system that is so taxed that if you're taking more resources to check and re-check, there has to be a point of diminishing returns," said Ed Delgado, a former Wells Fargo executive who leads the Five Star Institute, a mortgage-training provider.
Consumer advocates, meanwhile, criticized the process for allowing low-level employees to make complex legal assessments and for providing no transparency around how the reviews would calculate potential damages.
Regulators said on Tuesday they had gone to great lengths to set up "impartial reviews." They declined to say what kind of guidance banks have received about how borrowers should be compensated.
It also isn't clear how much documentation would be used to determine whether borrowers were harmed. Borrowers wouldn't be interviewed as part of the review process, but they would be able to provide documentation.
Some borrower advocates said the process could be hindered if banks or borrowers didn't maintain thorough records. "How many borrowers who went through foreclosures saved all of their paperwork to document whether that was a fair outcome?" said Debby Goldberg of the National Fair Housing Alliance, a consumer advocate.
Rep. Maxine Waters (D., Calif.) called the entire process "an exercise designed to create an illusion that past wrongs are being corrected."
Banks are negotiating separately with state attorneys general and other federal agencies to settle legal claims stemming from their inadequate mortgage-servi cing operations.
A proposal on the table now puts a $25 billion value on a settlement by the nation's five largest mortgage servicing companies. Banks would pay for most of those penalties by writing down loan balances for homeowners facing financial distress.

One trick works when doing uphill climbs. Look down, as if tracing your steps. Somehow you forget how steep an incline you’re scaling. Just like in life — uphill climbs are struggles meant to humble ourselves. We struggle to reach the top but the best advice remains: succeed with your feet firmly on the ground. With heads bowed, humility is the true measure of a successful man.
What is the best prayer while walking the Camino? I’d say the best and hardest is to listen. Everyday life has tuned us to many of life’s distractions. If only we can empty our minds of all these cobwebs that easily. It probably starts when our muscles begin to ache and the rhythm of walking dulls our senses to pull through. When we ache without suffering, we listen. The pain is dulled and we prep ourselves to listen. First to our body, then without warning, our mind opens up in prayer to listen. Prayerful thoughts without the prayer recitations.
A friend reminded me that communing with Nature is mindfulness. It comes after the initial pain and aches. One’s senses are heightened, fully engaged. Mono-tasking prevails. You walk, and mind how you walk. You look around and the beauty around you cheers you up. His presence felt with every lovely tree you pass, every stone and pebble you step on, every leaf felt crunching under your soles, every fragrance from the forest and woodlands you cross.
Instant Familiarity & Openness
When you walk the Camino, you come across strangers who don’t feel like strangers. It’s not them. It’s YOU. The newfound “openness” within you offers instant familiarity. Walked my first Camino SOLO, and the familiar faces of fellow peregrinos made me feel safe and never alone. For a mile or two, you walk with some before bidding them “Buen Camino” – a cue you’d walk ahead or behind, depending on your pace. But for those 2 miles or so, you’re talking initially to a stranger who slowly transforms into a pilgrim buddy. Hardly asking about names, profession and status. Quickly and almost logically, these aren’t important details anymore. Pilgrim buddies rather talk about how long they’ve been walking, where they started, and how they feel. They may even share meals, clink beer bottles, laugh at jokes or pray together. This I miss. To others, don’t hesitate to walk alone. The Camino provides. God provides.

The Top Three for the challenge 'T'was the Night Before Christmas' is also on the challenge blog so click on the link in the sidebar and see if you're a winner!!
This is my inspiration for you for this challenge.
The image and background paper and sentiment are all from the CD ' The Wrinklies' by La Pashe. There's some fun images on this CD and I was spoilt for choice.
A very easy card to make. I printed off the decoupage sheet which included the background paper and sentiment. I used white card stock to make a basic square card. I decided not to decoupage the image then it would be flat for posting. Finally adding a peel off greeting. Eh voila!!
I hope you'll be inspired to join in the challenge. Male cards are always a real challenge for me but lately I seem to have been making many.....lots of 70th birthdays amongst our expat male friends recently.

There has been a lot of activity in our District this past year, but our shared fire stories of tragedy and loss are evolving into a focus on rebuilding. It takes all of us grit, patience to learn about insurance coverage, sharing information on builders, contractors and construction costs and above all, determination to rebuild. These are the stories of celebration for this new year.
I am inspired by everyone who has been able to get their rebuild plans permitted and moving forward in the construction process. In the First District in 2018, 22 bridges and 413 homes were either completed, in construction, permitted or under review. Though this is less than half of the homes lost in District 1, this is incredibly hopeful considering the myriad obstacles to rebuilding.
We also have 66 ADUs either completed or in the works. Some of these will provide roofs for fire survivors as they rebuild on their properties. Hopefully, after rebuilding, these units will be put on the long-term rental market to help alleviate a small part of the housing crisis.
For almost a year now, I have been meeting with a network of “Neighborhood Captains” from fire impacted communities throughout my district, including Cavedale and Trinity roads, Bennett Ridge, Glen Ellen, Kenwood, Rincon Valley, Calistoga Road, Mark West and Riebli and Wallace Roads. These meetings bring other benefits beyond just factual knowledge. As a fellow fire survivor, hearing from these representatives about their and their neighbors’ triumphs and struggles helps me personally work through my own issues with my rebuild.
I’d like to share some brief information about some of our Captains, as well as their own words to start 2019 on a positive note:
Our Treehaven Lane Captain, from Kenwood, reported that through the rebuilding process, there is more unity in the neighborhood than before the fires. She shared: “We have all lived here for many years, but really didn’t know each other very well until we were faced with this disastrous tragedy. Connecting with others who have gone through this helps us all as we grieve together for our losses and helps us to feel less alone. In many cases the general public does not understand our loss or the emotional upheaval we are in, so being with others in the same situation eases the pain.”
Out in the Foothills neighborhood, off Riebli and Wallace roads, over 100 homes were lost. More than half of the residents are committed to rebuilding, with several nearing completion on their homes, and many more in the construction process. Our Foothills Captain is rebuilding a home which was built by her in-laws in the 1970s. She shared: “Last week we got to see our first wall! It is a retaining wall for our basement. We hope to be in our new house this year, so we are welcoming 2019 with much anticipation for new beginnings. The process of building a home is stressful in and of itself, but when you layer that with grief, the trials of dealing with insurance, the effort required for the recovery of the neighborhood and community, and careers, it can be overwhelming at times. So it is good to celebrate the milestones.”
O’Donnell Lane in Glen Ellen (photos shown) has become a hub of activity in recent months. I had the opportunity to go visit the neighborhood, and lots of progress is being made. Our O’Donnell Lane Captain said: “After the long wait to get the lots cleared, geology surveyed, trees removed, and permits approved, O’Donnell Lane is alive with activity. Eleven homes are in various states of construction. Looking forward to a further rebirth in 2019!”
The Bennett Ridge neighborhood lost more than 70 percent of its homes in the wildfires. The neighborhood has come together to support recovery and resilience for the future. Today, dozens of new homes are under construction with several nearing completion in the next few months. Our Bennett Ridge Captain shared: “Neighbors have shown an amazing diversity of experience and professional skill through the long recovery process. We have an engineering contractor who’s lent his expertise, several neighbors with tech backgrounds have helped establish a very active neighborhood email list, as well as attorneys, retired firefighters, animal care specialists and design professionals — all of whom are contributing to the rebuilding effort.”
In the Crystal Drive/Wilshire/Heights neighborhoods off Riebli and Wallace roads, our Captain and her in-laws are both rebuilding. She said: “My husband proposed to me on our Crystal Drive lot, we raised our two children in this house that he and his father built. We held many family gatherings from births to memorial services, and all holidays were celebrated at our home. My in-laws took on the daunting task of rebuilding with a vengeance. While they mourn the losses from a lifetime of traveling and collecting art pieces and know their home will never be the same, they are determined to rebuild.”
I’ll close with words from one Captain, who expressed what I’ve seen emerge as a common theme amongst fire survivors in my district and beyond: “Neighbors have made new and stronger connections since the fires. New friendships have blossomed and a spirit of giving and compassion has flourished.” May this spirit carry all of us through 2019.

There were new twists, familiar faces and loads of drama on American Idol Tuesday night, as the ladies kicked off the first of the live performance shows.
The new twists? In what was dubbed Rush Week, the judges reviewed tapes of the Top 15 Girls and picked the 10 that impressed them the most to perform, surprising the ladies one at a time.
The familiar faces? Randy Jackson, the "Dogfather" of Idol, was back to mentor the contestants, leading a sort of Rush Week "wisdom workshop" for the pledges, which included vocal coaching from former Idol contestants Adam Lambert and Chris Daughtry, and guidance from stylists, a movement coach, and a pair of spiritual advisers.

The final contestants were added to American Idol's Top 30 Thursday night … almost.
In a surprise twist, the judges couldn't decide which singer would round out the Top 15 Boys and, for the first time, are leaving it up to America to choose.
And it all came down to the odd couple: country singer Ben Briley, 24, who sang "Stars" for his final solo performance, and silky voiced Neco Starr, 22, who sang "Halo" by Beyoncé despite battling a cold.

After thousands of auditions, hundreds of golden tickets and weeks of performances, there was a first on Wednesday's American Idol: An openly gay contestant made the Top 30.
M.K. Nobilette, 20, broke that barrier, saying, "I'm very obviously gay, and there are always gonna be people in America … who will definitely hate me, but I think that in the last two years there have been a lot of things that have really changed that."
"The world is changing," said Jennifer Lopez, "and we think you could be an American Idol."

As a joke, of course.
"I am dropping out of the judges' panel," Connick said, after the surprising exit of Tiquila Wilson, who quit without warning to follow her dreams of becoming a gospel artist.

Bryson Tiller may have cornered the market on the trap-soul genre, but to KAYTRANADA and Anderson .Paak deserve to have synth-soul all to themselves. KAYTRANADA is gearing up to drop his proper debut, 99.9%, after lending his synth-smith sensibilities to too many artists to keep track of. Just in the past 10 days he’s collabed with Pusha T, Mick Jenkins, Kali Uchis, and Vince Staples. But he’s finally focusing on himself and his debut, and today he taps Paak for “Glowed Up” and gives it the visual treatment.
The track has dreamy, bouncy, warped synth layers high and low as Andy PinDrop settles in with his oh so soulful tip-toeing on the line between singing and rapping. The energy shifts around the three-minute mark with Paak in croon mode over mellow, intricate military drums and deep synth grooves. The Bo Mirosseni-directed video features a lit underground party with a hazy, fluorescent flooded aesthetic, and KAYTRANADA contorting his face in delight from all the good vibes surrounding him. Paak shows up in an old-school TV with a swaggy delivery of his lyrics. It’s a smooth clip for silky song. Peep it.

A retired supervisory deputy U.S. marshal from Wheeling has been charged with lying to federal investigators about the help he provided a friend who was being investigated by the FBI for running an auto-insurance scam.
After retiring in 2003, Jeffery Van Craenenbroeck, 60, allegedly asked a former co-worker at the U.S. Marshals Service to run vehicle checks on a law enforcement database between 2004 and 2005 as well as at least eight criminal background checks, according to an indictment filed Tuesday. The database is restricted to law enforcement use only.
While investigating a car dealer for allegedly staging fake car crashes to collect more than $100,000 in insurance money, the FBI discovered the retired deputy marshal had been assisting the car dealer, who was a friend.
When he was interviewed by the Justice Department inspector general's office in 2006, Van Craenenbroeck allegedly lied when he denied giving the information to the car dealer.

In this paper, mechanical studies on biomaterials for reconstruction and regeneration of bone and joints of lower limb are summarized. Finite element analyses of knee and hip prostheses were performed to characterize the mechanical conditions of the artificial components and the mechanical interaction between bone and prosthesis. The computational results showed that for the knee prosthesis, the transitional behavior of stress concentration on ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene insert corresponded to actual damage formations, and for the hip prosthesis, the disturbed stress on the injured acetabulum was effectively reduced by the joint replacement, however, stress shielding effect in the femur was also induced by stem insertion. Strength enhancement of bioabsorbable porous poly(L-lactide) scaffold was also investigated using layered structurization. It was found that those properties were effectively improved by introducing layered structures.

Swim Teams Take First at Miami/IBIS Invitational
CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- The men's and women's swim teams both grabbed first place at their respective meets in Miami, Fla. Saturday afternoon. The men, ranked 21st in the nation, won the IBIS Invitational and defeated a top 20 team for the second time this year.
The Boilermakers finished with 163 points, ahead of 13th-ranked Miami (Fla.), which finished with 157 points. Broward Community College and Rutgers also participated, finishing with 73 and 45, respectively.
In the 400 medley relay, sophomore Gerald Koh, junior Vilmos Kovacs, junior Dan Kleber and junior Mark Kujawski grabbed first with a time of 327:02. The 400 freestyle relay team of junior Kirk Larsen, seniors Frank Smardo, Ross Croasdell and Mike Ullom also finished first with a time of 3:06.23.
Other firsts included Larsen in the 200 individual medley (1:53.81), freshman Matt Martin in the 1000 freestyle (9:31.67), sophomore Kevin Cornehl in the 200 backstroke (1:58.04) and Kovacs in the 200 breastsroke (2:08.56). "To beat a team like Miami in their home pool is great," head coach Dan Ross said.
The win over Miami was his team's second against a top 20 team this year. "Our divers also hung in well against a Miami squad which is perhaps the best in the country." Ross continued. Sophomore Brandon Gustafson and junior Dan Schunk competed well which helped to offset Miami's strength. The Boilermakers will face 16th-ranked Nebraska next weekend.
The women also won their meet against Miami, Broward Community College and Rutgers as they improved to 8-1 in invitationals this year. Leading the way was junior Erika Whyte who had first place finishes in the 400 medley relay, 400 freestyle relay and 50 freestyle. Sophomore Nikki Lively also swam on the victorious relay teams and won the 100 freestyle.
Gyongyver Lakos in her first official meet as a Boilermaker touched first in the 200 freestyle and second in the 100 freestyle. Freshman Missy Bromley had a lifetime best in the 200 backstroke, and also swam with the 400 medley relay team.
The Boilermakers won nine of the 13 events. "The training trip is going well, they are all training extremely well," head coach Cathy Wright-Eger said. 25th-ranked Miami is the second ranked school the Boiler women have defeated this year.
They also beat Arizona State in the second Sun Devil Classic last month. The women will resume action Saturday January 17 against Michigan State in West Lafayette.

The Vodou Lwa, Voodoo Spirits and their Catholic Saint counterparts. Who were the Vodou Lwa most closely syncretized to when they came to the new world in the New Orleans Voodoo tradition and in the Haitian Vodou religion?
This section serves as a basic primer of the Voodoo Spirits, the Vodou Lwa and their Catholic counterparts. These are the most common Catholic Saints traditionally associated with the Vodou spirits as found within the Haitian Vodou religion, New Orleans Voodoo traditions and other spiritual paths of the African traditional religions as represented at Erzulie’s Voodoo in New Orleans.
The following overview of the Voodoo spirits and their Catholic counterparts are not intended to replace the vast history or the culturally rich, and complex theology. Instead, this is to provide general foundational concepts as to which Catholic Saints the Vodou Lwa are most closely associated with due to the African diaspora (slave trade) and acquaint you with the power and beauty of the mysteries of Vodou.

Famous for being one of the co-founders of Black Lives Matter, Alicia Garza continues her trailblazing activism to empower the Black community as head of the Black Futures Lab, which "works with Black people to transform our communities, building Black political power and changing the way that power operates." Earlier this year, the lab released the Black Agenda, a point-by-point list urging political leaders to enact policies that will help destroy the barriers that have hindered Black prosperity and diminished our political power. This project comes on the heels of BFL's 2018 Black Census Project, the largest survey of Black Americans in 155 years, which provided insights into the aspirations of Black people across all 50 states and will help inform another BFL initiative, the Black to the Future Public Policy Institute, a place for policy advocacy and leadership training. But Garza isn't limiting her reach. She's branching out into film as she joins a star-studded cast that includes Oprah Winfrey, Angela Bassett, Courtney B. Vance and Phylicia Rashad in the film adaptation of Ta-Nehisi Coates' New York Times bestseller, _Between the World and Me_, which is set to air on HBO. Garza is also set to release a book in October, _The Purpose of Power__: How to Build Movements for the 21st Century_, in which she delves into her experience fighting for Black lives, shares her knowledge about organizing and discusses racial history.

Further proof that we do not truly have two political parties. Politico reports:
Days before the March 1 deadline, Senate Republicans are circulating a draft bill that would cancel $85 billion in across-the-board spending cuts and instead turn over authority to President Barack Obama to achieve the same level of savings under a plan to be filed by March 8.
The five- page document, which has the tacit support of Senate GOP leaders, represents a remarkable shift for the party. Having railed against Senate Democrats for not passing a budget, Republicans are now proposing that Congress surrender an important piece of its Constitutional “power of the purse” for the last seven months of this fiscal year.
As proposed, lawmakers would retain the power to overturn the president’s spending plan by March 22, but only under a resolution of disapproval that would demand two-thirds majorities in both the House and Senate to prevail over an Obama veto.
The proposal would require — like the sequester — that no more than $42.6 billion of the cuts come at the expense of defense programs. But the elaborate, almost Rube Goldberg construct is already provoking sharp criticism from Republicans and Democrats alike and reflects a political scramble to escape the fallout from the sequester.As usual, Sarah Palin is able to cut to the meat of the issue, writing:
D.C.: Cut the Drama. Do Your Job.
Americans are sick and tired of yet another ginned-up crisis. D.C. needs to grow up, get to work, and live within its means. The real economic Armageddon looming before us is our runaway debt, not the sequester, which the President advocated for and signed into law and is now running around denouncing because he never had any genuine intention of reining in his reckless spending.
Remember that this sequestration deal came about because of the long debt ceiling standoff in the summer of 2011. It wasn’t the ideal outcome for anyone, but it did at least include real deficit reduction of about $110 billion per year for 10 years, which is still nowhere near enough to close our massive deficit. Keep in mind that since the sequester passed, the President has already hit American families and small business owners with his tax increases, or “more revenue” as he likes to call it. The American public doesn’t want tax increases; we want government to rein in its overspending.
If we can’t stomach modest cuts that would lower federal spending by a mere 0.3% per year out of a current federal budget of $3.6 trillion, then we might as well signal to the whole world that we have no serious intention of dealing with our debt problem.
If we are going to wet our proverbial pants over 0.3% in annual spending cuts when we’re running up trillion dollar annual deficits, then we’re done. Put a fork in us. We’re finished. ...

A BOOK written by a former Bootle resident about a Liverpool family during World War II has been published.
Unfortunately More Scouse, Vicar? was printed after author Billy Forshaw died on March 20 this year.
The story charts the life of one family in Liverpool, with a young mother forced to tend to two young daughters on her own after her husband left to go in the navy.
Louise Forshaw, Billy’s daughter, said: “When my dad died, at first I felt angry that he missed out on seeing his book published.
“He didn’t care about the money but he would have loved to know people were reading his book and enjoying it
“I have decided to try and channel my loss into something positive and try to circulate the book myself.”
Billy Forshaw was born in Liverpool and brought up in Bootle. After two years national service in Hong Kong, he returned to England and went on to have a long and successful career in teaching mathematics and coaching athletics.
He still has family roots established in the Bootle and Waterloo areas.

Seven of Swords
When the Seven Swords lie flat in a Tarot reading, it means that you or someone affiliated with you wishes to be a “lone wolf”. A lone wolf is a person who runs alone and freely, acting completely on his own. This is a card that shows you stand out from the rest. You may feel that you are most effective when you act alone. You want to ignore the ineffective group’s greatest efforts and assert your independence. This style of isolation is only effective for some people because most of us must have a commitment to being productive. The Seven of Swords card can also indicate avoiding commitments or responsibilities. There is a need to face what has to be faced. One does not just want problems to be voiced. Procrastination doesn’t work. There is a need to deal with problems.
Seven of Swords (Reverse)
When the Seven Swords are reversed in a Tarot reading, it can mean you’re feeling like a fraud or a fake even if you’re not. You or someone close to you may be engaging in acts of deception or holding big secrets.

An innovative new twist on solar rooftop panels may lead to a renewable power system thats both more efficient and cheaper.
The proposed system, developed at Duke University, is designed so that sunlight is harnessed to produce hydrogen, which -- oddly enough -- should allow for more energy to be converted into electricity than standard photovoltaics.
Nico Hotz, an engineering professor, demonstrated the effectiveness of his system by pitting it against other solar-power technologies in a head-to-head comparison. During a trial in February and July, he found that the system achieved exergetic efficiencies of 28.5 percent in the summer and 18.5 percent in the winter. This was a vast improvement over conventional systems which was only 5 to 15 percent efficient during the summer and 2.5 to 5 percent in the winter.
And compared to some of the other alternatives such as a standard photovoltaic system, a photovoltaic cell-based system that includes battery storage and a similar photocatalytic hydrogen system, the technology is also the most affordable.
"We performed a cost analysis and found that the hybrid solar-methanol is the least expensive solution, considering the total installation costs of $7,900 if designed to fulfill the requirements in summer, although this is still much more expensive than a conventional fossil fuel-fed generator," Hotz said.
- New invention turns building rooftops into wind farms
- SmartWind device can generate power from rooftops
The paper describing the results of Hotz's analysis was named the top paper during the ASME Energy Sustainability Fuel Cell 2011 conference in Washington, D.C.
The "hybrid" system works a little something like this:
The energy from sunlight is collected and used to heat a combination of water and methanol in a maze of tubes on a rooftop. The tubes, made from copper, are coated with a thin layer of aluminum and aluminum oxide and partly filled with catalytic nanoparticles. This unique set-up is what allows up to 95 percent of the sunlight to be absorbed and heat the water at temperatures of well over 200 degrees Celsius.
Once the evaporated liquid achieves these higher temperatures, tiny amounts of a catalyst are added, which produces hydrogen. The combination of high temperature and added catalysts produces hydrogen very efficiently, Hotz says.
The resulting hydrogen can then be immediately directed to a fuel cell to provide electricity to a building during the day, or compressed and stored in a tank to provide power later.
Issues to consider
Although the roof-mounted system may be able to supply all the building's energy needs in the summer, it might not be enough for winter. But if you take in consideration that if the system was built large enough to supply all of a winter's electrical needs, it would produce then produce excess energy during the summer, which can be sold back to the electrical grid.
