This handy Xbox Series X tip will stop Black Ops Cold War from crashing when jumping into a game.
Video game bugs are frustrating. But none are more annoying than when a game crashes.
This is exactly what many Xbox Series X players experience when jumping into a game of Cold War. This even affects matches of the brand new Cold War game mode which fans love.
However, a simple fix has been found. Players can now hop into matches of Cold War without risking a crash.
What is the Cold War Xbox Series X Crash?
Many players have been reporting Cold War crashing when they attempt to join an online multiplayer match.
The signs that a crash will happen is if the frame rate drops, the character models start juddering or if the controller vibration stops working. The game will then crash.
Players will then have to open the game up all over again and load into another match. Then they have to hope the game won’t crash again.
Players initially thought it could be to do with the ray-tracing settings, but this has been disproved. Use our guide to make sure you have the best visibility settings in Cold War.
How to Stop the Black Ops Cold War Crash
Luckily for players experiencing this issue, there is a simple fix that always works. Redditors have reported this fix to be 100% effective.
If any of the crash symptoms appear on your Xbox Series X then players need to follow these steps.
First, they need to hold the Xbox button for a couple of seconds until the prompt to “Turn Off Console” appears. Then they can simply back out of the menu using the B button.
This should completely fix the issue and put your game back to normal. If the crash signs appear again then all you have to do is repeat this process.
Let’s hope that Treyarch fixes this in an upcoming patch for the game. Perhaps the huge Cold War Season 1 Reloaded update, which is coming soon.

The Crowduino Uno-SD mainboard is a microcontroller board that completely compatible with the Arduino UNO. It is based on the Atmega328P, which is widely also used in the Arduino Uno and other Arduino compatible boards. Compared to the previous Crowduino with Atmega328,
, the Uno SD mainboard uses the Atmega16U2, instead of the FTDI232 for the USB2UART conversation, which makes the program downloading much faster. Besides, there is a SD card slot on the Uno-SD board, making this board more convenient for applications such as data logging/ environment monitoring. Compared to the original Arduino Uno, the Crowduino Uno SD board has the following upgrades:
- 1. Reset button on the left side, which makes it more convenient to reset the system.
- 2. Updated power circuit. With the selector, uses can select the working voltage, 3.3V or 5V, which makes the Uno-SD board compatible with more sensors that uses the 3.3V logic level communication .
- 3. Uno-SD board uses the Mini USB connector, to avoid the potential risk of connecting to above shield.
- 4. On board SD card slot.


The Wise Box is a new wireless digitizing interface for sensors and controllers. An increasing demand for this kind of hardware, especially in the field of dance and computer performance lead us to design a wireless digitizer that allows for multiple users, with high bandwidth and accuracy. The interface design was initiated in early 2004 and shortly described in reference . Our recent effort was directed to make this device available for the community on the form of a manufactured product, similarly to our previous interfaces such as AtoMIC Pro, Eobody or Ethersense . We describe here the principles we used for the design of the device as well as its technical specifications. The demo will show several devices running at once and used in real-time with a various set of sensors.

CHENNAI:A PIL petition has been filed in the Madras High Court for a directive to the authorities, including State Election Commission, to delimit the fishing villages in the 13 coastal districts and declare them before the local body elections as separate village panchayats, if they satisfy the eligible criteria.
A division bench of Justices T S Sivagnanam and Bhavani Subbaroyan, before which the PIL from Fisherman Care, by its president LTA Peter Rayan, came up for hearing on Friday, issued notices to the departments concerned, returnable by August 17.
Petitioner said there are 13 coastal districts in the State, consisting of 608 fisherman villages with a population of 9.24 lakh. The Mandal Commission had recommended inclusion of fishermen community in the list of SCs/STs and to carve out the areas where they are concentrated, as separate constituencies at the time of delimitation and to create a sepa-rate ministry for their development.But, the government and the
Delimitation Commission ignored the recommendations. Similarly, empowerment of fishing community by declaring their villages as village panchayats had not been done. 90 per cent of 608 fishing villages in the coastal districts satisfied the eligibility criteria for delimitation. But it was not done. Hence, the plea for a directive to authorities to consider his representation on the subject.

For me, the central passage in Tolkien’s long epic comes as Frodo and Sam are about to pass into Mordor, the dark and desolate land where Sauron and Mount Doom dwell. As they pause there on the threshold, Sam shares with Frodo a profound meditation on the nature of the Road and on the nature of stories. It is a speech to which we who live in an age that has lost both its sense of purpose and its sense of history—that knows neither where it came from nor where it is going—must carefully attend.--Louis Markos, On the Shoulders of Hobbits: The Road to Virtue with Tolkien and Lewis (Moody, 2012), 34-36
Sam and Frodo are living at the end of the Third Age. Behind them stretch ten millennia of mighty warriors, heroic battles, and timeless tales of adventure and self-sacrifice. But they are, of course, more than tales. They are the stage, the backdrop against which these two seemingly insignificant Hobbits act out their roles in the sacred narrative of Creation, Fall, and Redemption. Sam begins by reflecting back on those tales and those who lived through them:
“The brave things in the old tales and songs, Mr. Frodo: adventures, as I used to call them. I used to think that they were things the wonderful folk of the stories went out and looked for, because they wanted them, because they were exciting and life was a bit dull, a kind of sport, as you might say. But that’s not the way of it with the tales that really mattered, or the ones that stay in the mind. Folk seem to have been just landed in them, usually—their paths were laid that way, as you put it. But I expect they had lots of chances, like us, of turning back, only they didn’t. And if they had, we shouldn’t know, because they’d have been forgotten. We hear about those as just went on—and not all to a good end, mind you, at least not to what folk inside a story and not outside it call a good end. You know, coming home, and finding things all right, though not quite the same—like old Mr. Bilbo. But those aren’t always the best tales to hear, though they may be the best tales to get landed in! I wonder what sort of a tale we’ve fallen into?” (IV.viii.696)As I hinted in the previous chapter, there is good reason to believe that Tolkien’s vision of the Road and of the call matured during the seventeen years that separate The Hobbit from The Lord of the Rings: a period that includes those dark and desperate years during which England faced annihilation by the Nazis. Though Bilbo’s journey had allowed Tolkien to recover for his age much of the old magic and many of the old virtues, it lacked the proper scope to encompass the full dimensions of choice and destiny that define Frodo’s journey. To accomplish that would take a greater tale, one that could live up to Sam’s high description.
In the greater tales, the ones that matter—the ones that change both us and our world—the heroes do not so much choose the Road, as the Road chooses them. For our part, we must be ready, prepared in season and out, to answer the call, whenever and however it comes. And we must be prepared to press on, trusting to an end that we often do not, perhaps cannot, see. It is easy to claim that we would have done what Abraham did, but that is only because we stand outside the story. We see the good end, the fulfillment that Abraham could not see from within the story.
Sam muses on these things, and then, in one of those flashes of pure clarification that come to all those who endure in a cause, he realizes that the tale he and Frodo have been landed in is not a thing isolated from the past, but marks the continuation and perhaps even culmination of a tale that began long ago in the First Age:
“Why, to think of it, we’re in the same tale still! It’s going on. Don’t the great tales never end?”“No, they never end as tales,” said Frodo. “But the people in them come and go when their part’s ended. Our part will end later—or sooner.” (IV.viii.697)I believe it was Pascal who said that only God can see the whole picture and every detail within the picture at the same time. In his moment of clarification, Sam sees that his individual call (and that of Frodo) is part of a larger tapestry in which each individual call works together to bring about the destined and hoped for end, what Tolkien liked to call the eucatastrophe: the good end that rises up, miraculously, out of what seemed, at first, to be defeat and death.
If we would be a part of that eucatastrophe, then we must be willing to trust the call, to enter the tale, to set our weary feet to the Road.

Twitter has had some trouble in the recent past with some high profile accounts getting hacked and the ensuing fallout from those issues. Part of their response was to say that they will be enabling a two-step verification process. At the time that was a promise but now it is in play according to the post on the Twitter blog from yesterday.
Here’s a video for you to get the gist.
So while this is a good first step it may not really be much help to those who really need it. How’s that you ask? Well, TechCrunch’s Josh Constine has this to say

No, the Hellboy and Pan’s Labyrinth director isn’t making gay porn. Yes, he is set to create a darker version of the classic tale, Pinocchio.
Variety is reporting that Guillermo Del Toro, the filmmaker who loves all things fantasy, will be working with the Jim Henson Co. to make the popular story of a toy that turns into a boy into a stop-motion feature. The version will likely be less heartwarming and won’t have Roberto Benigni or Paul Reubens in it, thank God. Both played Pinocchio in other adaptations. Now that’s creepy.
Del Toro will executive produce and is working on a script with Gus Grimly, who also illustrated a version of Pinocchio in 2002. Grimly will co-direct with Adam Parrish King.
Del Toro is getting in on tons of projects right now, something that has me pretty pumped. He already is ready to direct The Hobbit as a two-picture project, but he also has a three-year first-look deal with Universal Pictures to develop remakes of Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Slaughterhouse Five.
It might be hard for me to be down for watching a Pinocchio film at this point, but if anyone can pull this thing off it is Del Toro. I haven’t seen a film of his that I didn’t like and the man has an eye for talent. Anybody who saw El Orfanato (The Orphanage here in America), which Del Toro helped produce, should know that.
Are you wishing upon a star for Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio? What fairy tale would you like to see re-made?

BFL hits apple’s bestseller’s list:)
Doing a little happy dance around here today. We’ve been climbing the sales charts at apple, and today we’re #5. (Last night we were at lucky #13.) This is all new to me, but I’m guessing it’s no different than book bestseller lists–meaning, it’s a good thing. More important, though, are the emails I’m getting from women (and a few men!), saying this app is a game changer for them. It’s helping them get clear. Strong. Happier. Helping them appreciate the good in their relationships, and make healthy changes when things just aren’t feeling right.
Have you’ve seen some of the press we’ve been receiving? Feeling very blessed over here. Lots more in the works, including some incredible TV shows in the fall. Yesterday was a personal dream-come-true day when the Huffington Post ran a beautiful article on the app. Of all the press we’ve received so far, that one left me giddy.
Thank you for taking this journey with me/us here at The Boyfriend Log. We’re putting the final touches on The Girlfriend Log now, and working on the Android version, too. So much to do, but so happy to be able to do it. Will keep you posted on the updates. And, follow us on twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest for more immediate news and fun things in the world of relationships.
Big love to you!

Things you should know about reheating food
Cooking food at home is a necessity. Sometimes you will have leftovers, and sometimes not.
As much as warming last night's dinner can be easy and convenient, it also comes with health risks, which you have to avoid.
According to health expert and founder of The Healthy Mummy, Rhian Allen, preparing meals at home is one of the simplest ways to make healthy eating habits that stick.
She says it’s important for you to store and reheat all the food you’ve made, as some ingredients can breed harmful bacteria, causing food poisoning or serious illness.
“Temperatures are just as important as storing when it comes to avoiding food poisoning. Even if food has been properly frozen or refrigerated, there’s still a chance that bacteria are present, which is why we need to be careful to make sure it’s reheated properly.
"Food that has been warmed up and left out between two and four hours cannot be put back in the refrigerator and must be consumed. Any food which remains in the danger-zone for four or more hours must be discarded,” says Allen.
Emphasising on spinach, eggs, cooked rice, and chicken, she says that spinach should not be reheated after its cooked, as it poses high risks of food poisoning.
“Chicken has a protein that starts to deteriorate and may cause digestive problems when it goes from cold to hot the second time around.
The general rule of thumb is if you want to enjoy leftover chicken warm, it’s best to reheat it in the microwave, a skillet, or the oven only one time after the original preparation.
Cooked rice is fine to reheat in the microwave, but you should always check that it is piping hot before eating. You can defrost rice in a fridge before heating or cook straight from frozen.
Eggs are like chicken, in that they are enriched with protein, which begins to deteriorate as soon as you cook it. Generally, it’s best to cook high-protein food that’s enough for one sitting, adds Allen.

Conditions of Draper shooting suspect, girlfriend upgraded
Couple were in 'agitated state' before officer was shot, sheriff says
SALT LAKE CITY — Two people connected to the fatal shooting of Draper Police Sgt. Derek Johnson remained hospitalized Thursday, but their conditions have improved, police said.
Timothy Troy Walker, 35, was upgraded from critical to serious condition at Intermountain Medical Center. His girlfriend, Traci Lee Vaillancourt, 34, was listed Thursday in fair condition, said Unified Police Lt. Justin Hoyal.
Neither was officially under arrest as of Thursday morning. Hoyal said detectives were able to speak with Vaillancourt at the hospital where officers have maintained a 24-hour presence since the incident.
"The details of those conversations will not be released. Based on evidence collected and statements that have been made, detectives still believe that Walker is the suspect in this case and Vaillancourt is a victim," he said.
Investigators believe Walker shot and killed Johnson as the sergeant was driving back to the Draper Police Department to complete his shift.
A motive for the shooting was still unknown as of Thursday. Police do know that the couple had been involved in a traffic accident a couple of blocks away and had driven away from that scene.
"They had an accident, they were riding on one rim," said Salt Lake County Sheriff Jim Winder. "They were (outside their vehicle), probably arguing and it was heated.
"Clearly they were at a super agitated state. And just then, the officer came around in his marked car," Winder said.
Whether Vaillancourt was shot before or after Johnson was still unknown Thursday. Walker then turned the gun on himself.
The funeral for Johnson will be held Friday at 11 a.m. at the Maverik Center in West Valley City. A viewing for the public will be held tonight from 6 to 9 p.m.

Two Michigan nonprofits are teaming up to create what they're calling a "celebration of Detroit's literary arts community."
The InsideOut Literary Arts Project and 826michigan are presenting the event Feed Your Soul on April 20. It will include readings and workshops by accomplished poets including national student poet Natalie Richardson and Detroit's Poet Laureate Naomi Long Madgett.
The event will be held at the Woodward Avenue branch of the Detroit Public Library.
It's one of several events nationwide this month coinciding with National Poetry Month and involving the nation's inaugural class of five student poets.

The advent of the modern-day shopping mall was in the mid-1950’s and it continued to rise in popularity as the go-to place for shopping in the decades thereafter. Watching the hit series Stranger Things is a great reminder of the mall experience, but how times have changed with the introduction and boom of the internet. Retailers shifted their approach to stay relevant in the online era by standing up websites to accompany their brick & mortar locations.Today we see retail outlets that exist solely in the web sphere – without any type of building. They are prime targets not only for consumer fraud but also cyber-attacks on retail data and reputations. The online marketplace excels in delivering goods quickly to the “I need to have it now” buyer. Threat actors excel too. They are masters at leveraging this urgency, as well as today’s delivery methods, to lure shoppers into scams.
And consumers aren’t the only targets. Attackers go after employees at retail organizations with phishing emails designed to steal customer data and create a PR nightmare. When this happens, consumers naturally think twice about buying again.
83% of consumers are concerned about purchasing from a company that was previously breached.
60% of POS compromises started with a phishing attack.
Source: 2019 Generali Global Assistance Cyber & Digital Protection Survey
What does this all mean when it comes to the phishing threat landscape? Consumers generally require a username and password to place an order on most websites. Based on threat intelligence from our research teams here at Cofense™, we know that threat actors primarily craft emails designed to steal credentials, both from consumers to gain access to online accounts and from retail employees to gain a foothold in an organization and compromise further. This is why it is critical for retail organizations to ensure their support staff have been trained to identify and report phishing attempts to gain access to their credentials.
29% of all breaches involve stolen credentials.
Source: 2019 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report
Cofense partnered with the Retail ISAC this past summer to conduct a benchmark study. Participants ranged from small to large organizations. It is clear that organizations with an easy reporting method – a button within the mail client – are more resilient to defending against a phishing threat.
Figure 1: Susceptibility and resiliency rates for manual reporting vs. email button-based reporting, average
Retail organizations are no different than other industries – to effectively defend against phishing attacks, they need visibility of attacks that have bypassed existing controls. It takes more than a Secure Email Gateway and phishing Computer Based Training to enable Security Teams to respond quickly and reduce the risk of compromise or data breach. Cofense is uniquely positioned to help retail organizations unite to fight phishing through our comprehensive phishing defense portfolio.

Rare Monk sound like: Post-punk never went away, it just grew and came back smarter than ever.
Similar artists: Telekinesis, Death Cab For Cutie, Godspeed! You Black Emperor, REMKSI absolutely delighted as he lands his first ever number one album: 'Your boy did it!'
Their story: Rare Monk are a four-piece indie rock band from Portland, US.
They sprang into life in 2014 via debut double-A side single Splice/Sleep Attack – a psych-rock leaning set of tracks that saw the band immediately lapped up by blogs and radio this side of the pond.
A self-titled EP followed in 2015 which saw the band try out a more apocalyptic sound, offset against upbeat-sounding singles such as Warning Pulse and California (Will Burn).
Their debut album, A Future, recorded over the course of a year and a half saw several line up changes including the addition of now-lead guitarist and vocalist Hugh Jepson.
‘The [album] deals with death and agency…,’ the band has said.
‘The world is a sh*t-show right now and it feels all we can do is make popcorn’.
What’s so great about them? Rare Monk are, um, one of those rare stories of perseverance and determination.
Carrying a fierce DIY ethic, the band have worked closely with several tastemaker labels such as the highly credible B3SCI who brought us artists such as Jungle, The Big Pink and Aquilo.
The sounds they make are both challenging yet palatable at the same time. Their shape-shifting debut single Splice ended up in the then-XFM evening playlist very early on.
Around their early single and EP releases, the band flaunted another post-punk part of their musical personality such as the purely instrumental track Mama Bear.
In their debut album, the band successfully manage to retain the broad spectrum of guitar-based influences that have shaped what they have become today.
Most-streamed track on Spotify: Warning Pulse (over 260,000 listens so far)
What will they be doing in 2017? The band have just finished up a tour of the West Coast of the US, and we’re hopeful that there will be some UK live action announced soon given the band have not popped over since 2014.
We’re also told that there is a new EP in the works expected to arrive sometime around Christmas.
Signed to: Unsigned
Upcoming live dates: None announced just yet.

Drought, wildfires increase wild animal encounters
Experts say to secure trash bags, trash cans and pet food
More New Mexicans are getting up close and personal with wild animals as a result of the current drought.
Already there have been bear sightings in Santa Fe and coyote sightings near The Bosque in Albuquerque.
State wildlife officials said more animals are coming into neighborhoods and yards in search of food and water, per the Santa Fe New Mexican.
To prevent wildlife from coming near your home, secure your trash bags and cans and keep dog and cat food in tightly covered containers, experts say.

Employment Counseling & Litigation
Swift Currie’s Employment Counseling and Litigation practice group has significant and extensive experience in advising public and private employers across the country. Our strategies help clients remain productive, avoid litigation and successfully defend matters when litigation arises in federal and state courts, as well as before federal and state administrative agencies. We counsel clients on myriad compliance issues and potential employment disputes, including those that arise during the hiring, employment and termination phase, as well as those involving discrimination, trade secrets, intellectual property, noncompete agreements and more.
We recognize that even the smallest claim could lead to costly and disruptive litigation. We strive to place our clients in as strong a position as possible to defend against all claims. Whether the client’s goal is to win on the merits of a case, achieve a favorable result in mediation or simply seek to proactively avoid a dispute and claim from an employee, we counsel and litigate with a common-sense approach that targets expedient, cost-efficient solutions.
Timely advice is important, and we’re available when our clients need us to provide sound and prompt advice along with a proactive approach that anticipates potential problems.
The federal and state administrative agencies we work with recognize Swift Currie’s reputation for a professional, ethical and sound approach that helps resolve issues promptly, effectively and in the best interests of the client. Our attorneys tailor their counseling and defense strategies to the outcomes that are important to our clients.
Hiring, Employee Management and Termination Consulting
Understanding and preparing for pitfalls in hiring, managing, retaining and terminating employees is critical, and Swift Currie’s employment practice group attorneys work with clients to manage issues arising throughout the employment lifecycle. Employee terminations are a major source of concern for our clients, and the way an employee dismissal is handled can make the difference in whether an employee decides to challenge the termination. Swift Currie’s attorneys work with employers to guide them through the termination process, including drafting severance agreements and release of claims.
As part of our proactive counsel, we also draft documents that employers need over the course of their business, such as employee handbooks and confidentiality, noncompete and computer-use provisions. We also provide training to ensure our clients are educated on best practices for enforcing these policies. This comprehensive approach allows us to help our clients avoid litigation and leverage those pre-emptive measures to defend our clients should litigation arise.
Every employer is charged with complying with a litany of federal laws, such as the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), Title VII, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Equal Pay Act (EPA), Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA).
We handle all types of discrimination matters starting with charges at the administrative agency level to litigation in federal court and through the appeal process, if necessary.
In addition to reaching successful resolutions through trial, the employment practice group attorneys at Swift Currie are well versed in alternate dispute resolution techniques, such as arbitration and mediation. We have successfully defended employers against actions by administrative agencies, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), Department of Justice investigations and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) in whistleblower and anti-retaliation matters.
Trade Secrets, Intellectual Property and Noncompete
In today’s fast-paced and competitive business climate, the ability of a company to retain and protect its customers, goodwill and proprietary information is paramount to maintaining a competitive advantage. Swift Currie’s trade secret, intellectual property and noncompete practice includes attorneys with a wealth of knowledge and courtroom experience in representing and counseling clients in trade secret, noncompete and nondisclosure agreements and other competitively sensitive business disputes with restrictive covenants on solicitation of customers and recruitment of employees.
Additionally, we frequently handle disputes involving trade secrets, tortious interference with business and contractual relations, breach of fiduciary duty and duty of loyalty, unfair and deceptive trade practices, business defamation and other applicable claims under state and federal law.

SEATTLE (AP) — Mariners shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt was traded to Kansas City on Friday, giving the Royals a versatile infielder and Seattle a pair of minor league pitchers.
The 27-year-old Betancourt was hitting .250 with two homers and 22 RBIs in 63 games this season. He’s been on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma after straining his left hamstring, and will continue rehabbing at Double-A Northwest Arkansas.
The Royals also received cash considerations, while the Mariners get right-hander Danny Cortes and left-hander Derrick Saito. Cortes will report to Double-A West Tenn and Saito will head to Class A Clinton.
“The opportunity presented itself for us to acquire a pair of talented arms and as we move forward we felt this was the right thing to do at this time,” Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik said in a statement.
Betancourt fled his native Cuba on a makeshift raft five years ago and signed with Seattle as a free agent in January 2005. He’s hit .279 with 27 homers and 202 RBIs in 588 career games, and signed a three-year contract extension in April 2007.
He’s struggled with plate discipline this season, drawing only 10 walks in 224 at-bats. He also was benched twice this season by manager Don Wakamatsu for lackluster play in the field.
The 22-year-old Cortes is 6-2 with a 3.12 ERA in his last 11 games, after starting the season 0-4 for Northwest Arkansas. He was rated by Baseball America as the Royals’ top pitching prospect entering the spring.
The 21-year-old Saito is 2-6 with one save and a 4.26 ERA for Class A Burlington.

Chaconne in G major by Handel
I'm so excited to be writing about so many pieces that I'm actually playing now! I'm doing this piece for performance exams. Ughhh! I love the piece though. The structure is really fascinating. It begins with a section full of many trills and varied rhythm, almost romantic in nature. The main improvisitory theme is then varied many times. The harmonic progressions stay the same in every variation but the bass and soprano take turns trading the melody. It's like an equal partnership between the voices. It is also neat because the piece begins very slow with many eigths and quarters. Then it has a natural tempo increase by going to triplets. Then it finally switches to sixteenth note runs. This makes the piece seem more agitated and like the performer is going crazy playing faster and faster when really they're keeping the same tempo throughout. This performer added many trills as well. This very major section then goes into a parallel minor section in g. It is much slower and lyrical and beautiful. The melody seems to sing. This section is great because now instead of having an obvious melody and accompaniment switching voices every other variation, both voices are playing counter melodies. The sixteenth runs have prominent notes that makes melodies just as important as the eigth note melody lines. This section is a reverse of the first and instead of increasing tempo naturally, the performer starts adagio and then gradually accelerates until they hit the big bouncing octaves that crash in descending patterns until the G major key comes back once again. This time, the section starts with sixteenths and gets more vigorous by the addition of more dense chords and constant arpeggiation. It sounds like a rattling harpsichord or a car barreling forward with the accelerator pushed to the floor. It finally ends on a huge PAC after the many HCs that came before. I'm so glad I looked at this piece in this way. It makes me see it in a new way again.

I recently entered an autism awareness day contest (and used my sister's hands so that i could keep on my precious red scatter holo XD)
Please ignore her cuticles etc. she gets really nervous around exam time and the AP's are comingup quick!
The blue hand is "traditional" autism awareness, I used Sephora by OPI Slushied and Sinful Colors Grecian Sun then layered an unnamed blue micro glitter jelly with little silver holo hexes in it.
The green hand is "non-traditional", My little brother chose green, if you are new to my blog, he is a high functioning nine year old with aspergers who absolutely loves pokemon :D
Anyhow, he chose SC Olympia and Innocent as the two greens and I added call you later over it to mimic the blue glitter on the other hand.
I then used diamantes to create the little flowers in the colors of the puzzle peices from the autism awareness ribbon :) We took a bit of artistic liberty and added green so we could tie in the green <3
thanks for reading :D
Pictures follow :)
and until next time ...

Home > Mercy News > Mercy and Abbe Center chosen to guide national health improvements
Published on January 29, 2015
Mercy Medical Center, in collaboration with Abbe Center for Community Mental Health, was selected as one of ten groups across the country to improve the health of their communities by participating in a three-year project funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Mercy and the Abbe Center, with the additional support of Affordable Housing Network, Aging Services and Linn County Public Health, are taking part in field testing the National Quality Forum’s (NQF) Improving Population Health by Working with Communities — Action Guide 1.0. The local partners are focusing on and studying the health and well-being of residents living at Geneva Tower in downtown Cedar Rapids. Geneva Tower is managed by the Affordable Housing Network, Inc.
The Action Guide handbook and the field testing over the next 18 months are designed to stimulate effective collaboration to improve the nation’s health. Chosen from a pool of 40 applicants, each field testing group selected is applying the content of the Guide to their population health improvement projects to determine what works and offer ideas for new or revised content.
One of the first planned initiatives locally – to engage the residents of Geneva Tower in the project – was a free health screening offered on Tuesday, Feb. 3. The screening helped residents examine certain health indicators. Basic data collected from the health screening will aid in follow-up activities including educational classes, individualized support, and the provision of groups and activities to support residents in making healthy lifestyle changes.
“We are pleased to have been chosen among a select few in the nation for this important health initiative,” said Melissa Cullum, manager of Community Benefit at Mercy Medical Center. “This project aligns perfectly with our mission – to enhance the health of the communities we serve. We hope to have a positive impact on our local community as well as across the country.”
The 10 selected field testing groups are geographically and substantially diverse and include:
Members from the NQF Population Health Team visited Cedar Rapids in February for a site visit as the project got underway. The goal of the team is to have a final draft of the Action Guide handbook completed and available for widespread use by July 2016.
The National Quality Forum leads national collaboration to improve health and healthcare quality through measurement. Learn more at www.qualityforum.org.


If you are looking for class and elegance, then you got it in the latest truck in town- the 2018 Ram 3500. This truck is simply gorgeous, stylish, and adaptable. It is also a superior pickup which comes in both Light and Heavy-Duty models. This newbie truck is manufactured with state of the art design and will definitely lure everyone who sets their eyes on it to sign the purchase deal quickly and ride in it.
2018 Ram 3500 – Exterior and Features
Every passing model of the Ram truck brings new and existing features and so has the 2018 Ram 3500. This truck not only features new technical specs, but also different colors to suit every taste and preference. The exterior Tungsten chrome trim with body-shading running sheets gives a sleek and lavish appearance. These rims blend smoothly with the constrained glossy and silky carbon wheels with tungsten to emphasize style. Additionally, the front is designed to dominate the roads and show who is the boss, thanks to its tungsten chrome grille.
The 2018 Ram 3500 of Light and Heavy-Duty models brandishes the richest and comfy inside in the truck lineup. The spacious double cabin offers solace and style courtesy of its cream white leather seats. Its one of a kind sophisticated innovation incorporates the Uconnect® 4C with an 8.4-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay® system, and Android Auto™ to ensure your every ride is not only worthwhile but also sumptuous.
The 2018 Ram 3500 also features an exemplary dark inside and dark dashboard. Additionally, the 3500 Heavy Duty will bring with it an all-new, Ram Engineering– outlined fifth-wheel hitch and a hard body equipped for taking care of heavy loads and ensuring durability for this new all-weather and all road super machine.
Engine and Performance
The 2018 Ram is furnished with a discretionary turbocharged 6.7-liter inline-six diesel motor. It promises a Cummins-sourced diesel motor which will be powered with a gigantic 385 HP and 900 lb-ft of torque. This power is capable of handling up to 30, 000 pounds of load in a trailer. The load capacity is a 5,000-pound increase from the 2017 model, clearly indicating its superiority in towing and torque.
Launch Date and Price
The new Ram 3500 is set to be released in 2018. Considering the upgrades that the 2018 Ram model has received, it is likely that the price will be higher.
At the moment, no exact price for this latest model has been decided yet, but it is expected that it will be relatively higher than the price of the 2017 model. On that note, the price of the 2018 Ram 3500 is approximated to range between $33,500 to $62,570.

Specific aged acquaintances objected to my possession of the book. According to them, that book personified the evil that had been unleashed upon the world by infernal powers, caused our people untold suffering and continued to be a source of conflict and violence in the world today. The opinion of one of these, a witness and survivor of the ethnic and religious persecution of Christians in the Ottoman Empire, I respected and thought deeply about. That of another, who claimed that her copy of the Bible was contaminated with communist interpolations that gave Jesus a Jewish lineage, I discounted right away.
My second Quran was given to me when I was in Turkey, by two Pakistani gents who offered me their hospitality. Having eaten, they uncovered a Quran, lovingly swathed in a velvet cloth, so as to be protected from profane hands, and for five gruelling hours, they proceeded, seated either side of me, to explain why the Christians were wrong, deluded and mislead by a holy book that was corrupted and, in turn why the Quran perfectly expressed God’s revelation for mankind. It was a harrowing experience and I felt not a bit threatened by the fervour of my two hosts, who demanded to know, at regular intervals, whether I agreed with them and did not stop with their preaching until morning. Possibly to reward me with their endurance, they gave me their Quran as a parting present the next day.
My third Quran was obtained in Albania. I was visiting a hodja at a Bektashi tekke, (a mystical Islamic order, deemed heretical by Sunni Islam and incorporating, at least in Albania, many Christian practices). I expressed interest in the revival of religion in the country in general, after the imposition of forty years of compulsory atheism by Enver Hoxha’s Stalinist regime, and in particular the reconstruction of churches and mosques throughout the countryside. “Most of these new mosques are built through Saudi Arabian funds,” he sighed wistfully. “They are importing Sunni Islam into a region that has never known it. They have also flooded the country with copies of the Quran, like this one.” He handed me a small, well-printed book, from a vast pile in a storeroom. “What they don’t realise is that this country is still very poor and we have more need of food and infrastructure than anything else. In the winter, many Muslim families burn these for fuel.”
To read any book deemed holy by people is to embark upon a roller coaster ride of emotion, thrill, and perplexity. Holy books inspire people to goodness, maintain and sustain them in times of trouble and are a pilgrim’s staff of support upon the weary path of life. Misused however, they can inspire hatred, intolerance, violence and misery, simply because in claiming to be the entire truth, they are by their very nature, exclusive of others who do not or cannot share or recognise the validity of their contents. Regardless, to deface, abuse or burn such books or other religious symbols is a heinous act, insulting the innermost core of a person’s belief and causing lasting hatred.
For example, in May 2008, hundreds of New Testaments were burned in Or Yehuda, Israel after having been collected by the Deputy Mayor who described the material as "Messianic propaganda" and claimed the books were burned by 3 Yeshiva students. In May 2009 a Russian orthodox church in Northern Israel was showered with stones thrown by students, injuring many of the congregation. A frequent complaint of Christian clergy in Israel is being spat at by Jews, often students. Even Christian ceremonial processions have been alleged to have been spat at, with one incident near the Holy Sepulchre causing a fracas which led to the destruction of the Armenian Archbishop's 17th-century cross. Such acts of disrespect, limited though they may be, have the capacity to cause lasting inter-denominational rifts.
Similarly, the recent defacement of the Assyrian Genocide monument in Sydney with the Islamic star and crescent, accompanied by slogans such as “F-k you Assyrian dogs,” may imply in the minds of many, regardless of whether this is erroneous or not, that the religion symbolised by the Star and Crescent condones the massacre of people on the basis of their race and religion.
The latest example of religious intolerance – the proposed and then cancelled ‘Burn the Quran’ day, by the Dove World Outreach Centre is a senseless as it is intolerant, contradicting the peaceful connotations indicated by the ‘dove,’ and certainly flouting the basic Christian beliefs that this organisation purports to hold. Furthermore, rather than highlighting the horror of the attack on the Twin Towers, all such an act, and even its very proposition, is to inflame anti-Christian feeling in the Middle East. This in turn, would cause further persecution of and acts of intolerance towards the already beleaguered Christian communities of the region, a minority that the ‘Christian’ West, seems not to care about at all and which are subject to harassment and restrictions in almost all Muslim countries. Further, how the burning of the holiest book of Islam, will achieve any rapprochement or common ground between the West and the Middle East, or serve to defuse the works of fanatics is difficult to discern. Rather, it should be viewed as a populist attempt to appeal to those lowest facets of the human character – bigotry and hatred – that it purports to condemn. Had the Dove World Outreach Centre truly wished to raise awareness of problems within Islam, they could have done so through civilized debate.
Ultimately, the success of a mature, pluralistic society can be measured in the manner in which it cajole extreme fringe groups to respect the rights and sensitivities of others. The fact that after pressure and protest, “Burn the Quran” day was abandoned is a mark of a healthy society in which wiser heads can prevail. It is this – the overwhelming outcry by churches and other groups against disrespecting Islam, that Muslims should pay attention to and not the ravings of the bigoted.
In his 1821 play Almansor, Heinrich Heine commented: “That was but a prelude; where they burn books, they will ultimately burn people also,” and the events of the twentieth and twenty-first century have certainly proved him right. There is much to be enjoyed, rejoiced in and also to ponder in the books that form the basis for humanity’s belief in the supernatural. The Quran, whether one believes or understands its teachings and claims or not, is one of the most important and widely read works of literature and it should be respected, as well as subjected to critical analysis. After all, books do not kill people. People do. Until next week, mind those paper cuts.

Here is an interesting resource for the Doctors of the Church. I can't say that I have sympathy with the perspective of the essays about each doctor, but the links at the bottom of each page are rich.
For instance, the author seems to think that St. Albert the Great was an innovator in bringing pagan thought into the Church and that the Church resisted Aristotle because he was pagan. The truth is, though, that the Church had allowed a very rich dialogue with Platonism for centuries. What they had doubts about was Aristotle thought itself, not his paganism. Also, I cringed at this on the St. Jerome page: "Please exchange He to She, God, Lord, Jesus or whatever you feel comfortable using as you pray."

If you've stuffed too much over Christmas you may be fed up with the idea of eating lots of rich foods, puddings and chocolate by now. But if a new survey is anything to go by it may be more difficult that you realise to get back into eating sensibly, since a quarter of women think about food every 30 minutes.
Apparently, while women think about food every half hour, 36 of women who are part of a couple say they feel uncomfortable eating in front of their partner, while almost 50 of us eats unhealthy foods in secret.
Why do so many women have such a complicated relationship with food - and sex too? Do you have any ideas?
