Mental health is a very important part of our well-being, and if you or a loved one are experiencing challenges with maintaining mental wellness, it’s important to know that there are resources available to help you heal. Raleigh therapists are licensed experts who can help people with mental health challenges by talking to and advising them on how to manage their symptoms and practice healthy coping mechanisms.
This article will explain why going to therapy for mental health problems is important, how to find a therapist in your area, and signs that show you might benefit from mental health treatment.
Telehealth therapy is a form of therapy that allows individuals to receive counseling services over the phone or through video conferencing. It offers several benefits, making it an appealing option for individuals with difficulty accessing in-person therapy.
Telehealth therapy can help people get specialized mental health services. For example, people who live in areas with few mental health resources can get treatment from licensed Raleigh therapists who specialize in specific areas of mental health.
Talking to a therapist online, also known as telehealth therapy, can be helpful. But meeting with Raleigh therapists in their office, which is called in-person therapy, can be good, too. You can talk to licensed Raleigh therapists face-to-face and get the treatment you need. Some benefits of in-person/local treatment are detailed below.
Local therapy offers a therapist the potential to understand better the local culture and issues that may impact the client’s mental health. It can lead to a more targeted and practical approach to treatment.
If you or someone you love is interested in meeting with Raleigh therapists, Advaita Integrated Medicine is here to help.
At Advaita Integrated Medicine (Advaita Integrated Medicine), giving our clients the best care possible is essential.

Greece. March 4. After 56 days of hunger strike and 10 days of thirst strike it is a matter of days, maybe hours that Dimitris Koufontina might die. However, after the court failed to grant a request by his lawyers for a temporary suspension of his sentence, Dimitris told his family when they visited him in the hospital after the court decision that he will continue his hunger and thirst strike.
People who are in the environment of hunger striker Dimitris Koufontina informed the Press Project that Dimitris had already said long ago that he does not believe that judicial actions in the Local Court could have any positive effect.
He was informed about the decision of the three-member Lamia Court the hospital where his family visited him. Dimitris told them that he will continue his hunger and thirst strike.
The court unanimously rejected the request of hunger striker Dimitris Koufontinsa to postpone the execution of his sentence. The rejection of his request was suggested earlier and the head prosecutor arguing among other things, that his health condition deteriorated, because of his (Dimitris) own choice. “The state must not seek revenge. It’s a matter of days, maybe hours. If he dies, the forensic will write ‘cardiac arrest’ and you will also have a specific disease,” Themis Sophos, one of the lawyers of Dimitris Koufontinas, said.

Advocacy groups fight rise in antisemitism in Florida with billboard campaign
May 12, 2023
Nonpartisan watchdog nonprofit StopAntisemitism has teamed up with the Christian advocacy organization Philos Project to fight rampant Jew-hatred with a billboard campaign across Florida.
Troubled by the amount of antisemitism coming from white supremacist groups based in Florida, the Philos Project wants to ensure Jewish Floridians know that groups such as the Goyim Defense League and NatSoc do not represent Christian values. For support, Philos turned to StopAntisemitism, which has been at the forefront of condemning these hate groups.

I am a former student and I have a good question: Suppose I have a landing page for ‘pick a keyword’? Obviously I want the customer to land on this page but this page does not have any pagerank yet. The homepage however does have pagerank and the search results in showing the homepage. How do I get the landing page to out rank the homepage for the specific term?
This question really comes back to the fundamentals of SEO, so provides a good opportunity to review some of the basics.
Often a websites Home Page will outrank it’s other, more targeted pages, even though they have more content relevant to the search query, but why is this the case? The answer is usually quite simple, and it mostly comes down to backlinks. More often than not a websites home page has significantly more links to it from external sites, than other pages on the site. Search engines treat backlinks as “votes of confidence” and use anchor text associated with those links as a strong signal about what the site is about.
So, to answer you question – How do I get a landing page to out rank my homepage? – get back to the basics :
- Ensure that the contents of the landing page is highly relevant to and includes plenty of mentions of your targeted keywords
- Optimise Page Title, description, H tags for your keyword
- Establish links to the landing page (not your sites home page), from related third party sites with you keyword phrases as anchor text.
Hope that helps…

Tim Tebow’s team the Denver Broncos lost Sunday to the New England Patriots, but the evangelical starting quarterback still thanked Jesus and said it was an opportunity for a “new step up” and to make something “even bigger and better.”
After his team’s 41-23 loss, Tebow was on one knee in the center of the Sports Authority Field at Mile High in Denver, Colo. And, as usual, he thanked God at a press conference that followed.
“Well, first and foremost I have to thank my lord and savior Jesus Christ first,” Tebow told reporters, also thanking his teammates for “the effort that they played with all day, and the coaches coached extremely hard and we kept fighting for the entire day.”
Tebow, who has faced severe criticism for expressing his Christian faith on the field, saw the defeat as a stepping stone. “I think that every time there is a setback, it’s just more of an opportunity for a new step up and to make something even bigger and better,” he said, as transcribed by Denver Post. He said he was excited about going to New York against the Buffalo Bills this week and his team was looking forward to a good week at practice.
Tebow added that things were going “pretty well” early as the Broncos scored on their first three possessions and “felt like we were moving the ball well and then we put it on the ground.”
“That’s something you can’t do versus a great team and Bill Belichick,” he said.
The Broncos quarterback said “there’s a lot of great things we can take out of this game, and try to improve and get better.” He said his team shared his optimism. “Everybody’s very positive and encouraging each other, and we’ll go out here in a few days and get ready for Buffalo.”
Some saw Sunday’s game as between the two quarterbacks, Tim Tebow and Tom Brady. On Sunday morning, a television headline projected it as “The Playboy vs. The Preacher.” However, Tebow said he didn’t pay too much attention to it. “I just knew the New England Patriots were coming to play the Denver Broncos, and it was two teams going head to head.”
Brady, Tebow added, was “very complimentary” and “very nice” to him after the game. “What a great quarterback and class act he is. For a lot of young quarterbacks he does a lot of great things to look up to and try to emulate.”
Patriots coach Bill Belichick praised Tebow’s game. “Tim’s a tough guy to get to,” he was quoted as saying. “It’s not easy with him, but we were able to get him a few times. He’s a good football player, and it was a good battle against our pass rush.”
Last week, Tebow guided his team to a last-minute victory against the Chicago Bears.
Meanwhile, attacks on Tebow’s faith continued. Last Wednesday, a rabbi, Joshua Hammerman, said that should the Broncos win the Super Bowl, it would embolden Christians to do “insane things, like burning mosques, bashing gays and indiscriminately banishing immigrants.” In his article on The Jewish Week website, which was later removed, the rabbi predicted resurgence of “fanaticism” if Tebow were to lead his team to victory.
But Tebow is used to criticism, and his Facebook and Twitter do not respond to attacks. His last tweet at press time read: “Matthew 1:21-23.”
“She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins. All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: ‘The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel.’”

This infographic is a summary of NRC/OPHA’s report: The Current State of Local Food Use and Food Literacy in Meal and Snack Programs Targeted to Young Children in Ontario.
This report offers a vision for a healthy food system for the 21st century and beyond, underpinned by circular economy principles. Focusing on the potential of cities to spark transformation, the report outlines three broad ambitions for a circular economy for food: sourcing food regeneratively, and locally where appropriate; making the most of food; and designing and marketing healthier food products.

We have all listened to the outcry of educators opposed to salary cuts for teachers, reductions in class size and freezes on new hires. Yet, they haven’t supported new sources of revenue.
We have witnessed government administrators and higher education circling the wagons to protect themselves and their employees. Even college students are holding rallies, protesting increased tuition and a possible elimination of some curriculum. Yet, no one has proposed a new source of revenue.
Elected state officials haven’t missed the opportunity to use the town hall venue to generate new ideas on how to solve the state’s problems. Yet, they won’t increase the existing maximum 6.7 percent gaming tax, which is incredibly low compared to other states paying 20 percent or more.
Our governor, Jim Gibbons, doesn’t seem to care about new revenue either. He ranks 47th in the nation for allocating funds from the federal stimulus program. Our stone-brained governor has proposed an increased tax on mining by eliminating or lowering companies’ tax credits and deductions. Gibbons denies he is breaking his promise – again – of “no new taxes.” What else can it be if mining pays more taxes?
The state could have been the recipient of hundreds of millions over the last few years but no one wanted the money. For the last 10 years, I have been arguing with state officials, politicians, our local school board and casino operators for support of a lottery for education. During that time, only two school board members were interested in hearing the benefits of a lottery. Not one elected politician from the Washoe County delegation would support it, especially Sen. Bill Raggio.
True, some elected Democrats from Las Vegas tried to introduce bills favoring a lottery. However, even with a strong Democrat presence in the Legislature, most of the proposed bills never made it past committee members not wanting to bite the hand of their main contributors for re-election – the gamers.
So, how would a lottery benefit Nevada? Using the state of Oregon as a schematic, a state lottery would provide at least $400 million annually for education or the general fund in Nevada.
Oregon approved a lottery in 1988. In 2008, its 3,500 retail vendors sold more than $1 billion in lottery tickets with a sales per capita of $350.
Oregon has a population of about 3.79 million, compared to Nevada‘s about 2.6 million. However, we have a tourist population of about 35 million annually and that should be factored into projected possible lottery sales in the state.
Using $350 per capita and including only a small percentage of the tourist population, Nevada could also generate more than $1 billion in lottery sales annually and we wouldn’t have to go to California to buy a ticket.
The gaming industry has always been opposed to the lottery, effectively convincing legislators that it will hurt their business and reminding them who got them elected. But what I am proposing would increase gaming revenue, not decrease it.
Based on $1 billion in annual sales, all vendors having a gaming license or a permit to operate slot machines would receive 6 percent, or $60 million, of total sales for selling the tickets. That $60 million will be subject to gaming tax and generate $4 million for the state.
An additional 10 percent sales tax on total sales will add another $100 million to the state’s treasury.
Including 15 percent to cover the cost of running the lottery and 40 percent distributed to the players, 39 percent or $390 million would be set aside for education or the general fund. Too bad no one wants it.
Establishing a lottery in Nevada requires a constitutional amendment. It has to be approved in two legislative sessions and again by the voters in a state-wide election. If politicians, state school boards, teachers, university presidents and unions would have supported the lottery as a new source of revenue 10 years ago or if it was agreed to in the last legislative session and approved during this special session, it could have been placed on the upcoming state-wide ballot. So much for visionaries and special interest in politics.
Raggio once told me he was opposed to the lottery because the casinos will lose money, causing gaming tax revenues to decrease. Also, players won’t have enough money left to purchase a “new tie” after they buy lottery tickets, reducing sales tax revenue as well. Right! As if anyone really wins enough money to buy a new necktie at casinos. But because of Raggio’s ties to gaming, he will always have a choke hold on the lottery, costing the state hundreds of million s of dollars annually.

Fleas are a common external parasite associated with dogs. They cause severe itching and inflammation of the skin, leading to dermatitis. They are the intermediate host for the Tapeworm most common in dogs. If fleas are a problem, it is necessary to treat all animals in the household (both cats and dogs) to clean the environment. You may also want to ‘flea bomb’ the house to remove any eggs and to stop the cycle. Preventative programs are best achieved using “spot on” products that have a prolonged residual effect, usually 30 days. However it is strongly advised to consult your Vet or chat with the RSPCA's friendly Vet nurse team for free advice about the most suitable product for your pet.
Confidence – At your local kennel, your dog will face variables. For instance, you won't know whether the rostered staff have ever even met or cared for your pup before. This isn't a problem you'll face with Mad Paws' Dog Daycare. Rather, your trusted Pet Sitter will make the effort to familiarise themselves with your dog and provide tailored care.
If you dog’s age is between eight weeks to eight years, you are eligible to buy a pet insurance from us, and once insured the cover for lifetime is guaranteed. Our dog insurance will cover accidents like broken bones all the way to hip replacements and any illness during the policy period (please refer to PDS for more information) Furthermore you can choose Dog Dental insurance as an add-on.
It is important to buy your dog from a reputable source. Purchase your dog from a reputable dog breeder, visit an RSPCA Adoption Centre or a local animal welfare shelter such as the RSPCA where lots of happy and healthy dogs are looking for loving new homes. If you are looking to adopt a dog from a breeder, make sure you read our Smart Puppy Buyers Guide.

We all long to be understood, supported, loved, and accepted. Yet, being overly emotionally needy —A person should be able to stand on their own, tolerate aloneness, and manage their own ‘stuff’ for a healthy relationship to exist.
How we go about expressing our needs has a lot to do with our personality and our attachment style — our style based on how we learned to relate to our parents and how emotionally available they were... There are 3 styles of attachment that Secure people present themselves as warm and loving and were most likely raised with caregivers that were consistently caring and responsive.
They have an insatiable and exhausting emotional ‘neediness.’ They truly are exhausting and relating to them becomes a vicious cycle. Do you look to your partner for constant reassurance and validation?

Learn to connect the dots and understand what it is about your attachment style and upbringing that creates the neediness in your relationship.Ask yourself, what do I need to do to become more self-reliant and independent?What changes do I need to make to get me to a better and healthier place?This will help you recognize unhealthy relationship patterns.Learn to sit with your anxiety and the uncertainties of life.Too much 'neediness' can have negative consequences.

Samsung, Huawei, TCL lead the race to market smartphones that can also work as tablets.
The simple concept of a black rectangular touchscreen with rounded corners has appealed to smartphone users for over a decade. Needless to say, this shape and style is all Apple’s doing and even if one doesn’t have an iPhone, their smartphone will more or less resemble this shape and style. In short, owing to surplus demand, handset-makers could afford to be lazy, let go of their creativity and still manage to make money.
But in 2018, when the industry suffered a setback in terms of unit volumes, industry experts predicted that the future will be pretty for the smartphone industry only if handset-makers came up with newer and interesting smartphone designs. But device analysts agreed that technology was not yet ready to give customers massive differentiation in terms of design.
But Samsung and Huawei have now released folding smartphones, which implies that, finally, manufacturers are ready to experiment with newer shapes and sizes.
Both Samsung and Huawei have made sure that the display of their smartphones doesn’t crease or break when unfolded. One thing that some sceptics seemed to worry about was the cost. But then, for cutting-edge design, you have to be ready to pay a premium. As Clement Wong, Huawei’s director of product marketing, said, “If you want to try the latest technology on this planet, you will pay that premium.”
Let’s take a look at some of the foldable phones…
In November last year, South Korean major Samsung had teased the audience with a foldable phone at its annual developer conference, but one barely got a wind of any details about the device. Some were even confused and wondered if it was a phone or tablet. For Galaxy Fold, Samsung is using a new 7.3-inch Infinity Flex Display that allows the phone to have a tablet-sized screen, which can be folded and carried in a pocket. The main display is QXGA+ resolution (4.2:3) and, when folded, a smaller 4.6-inch HD+ (12:9) display is used for the phone mode. Samsung is using 512 GB of Universal Flash Storage 3.0 (eUFS) for massive speed alongside a Qualcomm 7 nm octa-core processor and 12 GB of RAM. Galaxy Fold has two batteries that are set apart by the fold, but brought together in the Android operating system to represent a total of 4,380 mAh. According to reports, Galaxy F, or Galaxy Fold, will probably cost over `1,00,000, which means it is probably not meant for the middle-class market.
Chinese company TCL wishes to introduce a foldable phone next year, which will reportedly cost 30% less than the Galaxy Fold. The company displayed a few interesting concepts recently. In one concept, it showed a book-fold approach to the Galaxy Fold, but let go of a second screen in the cover for LED lights. In this layout, TCL uses these lights to display the time. The other interesting element is the addition of magnetic ends to ensure that the device is tightly shut. Then there was also a concept, which made a phone turn into a watch. Another prototype showed a narrow and tall phone, which folded, but not in half. It bent asymmetrically, which, in turn, led to a small part of the display open for the user to see content and data. If the phone is folded closed, it doesn’t appear flat and gives the illusion of a bulging billfold.
Huawei Mate X
During the Mobile World Congress 2019, Huawei made public its first-ever foldable phone. Unlike Galaxy Fold, Mate X has a fold-out design with two screens on the outer side of the folded device, which means that the Mate X will be inverted when it unfolds to enable the secondary display for the tablet mode. Mate X is compatible with 5G and will come with two back-to-back screens, which unfold to become an eight-inch tablet display. When unfolded, the 6.6-inch dual display panel is converted into an 8-inch tablet with 5.4 mm thickness. It has an impressive 4,500-mAH dual battery and, interestingly, it comes with superfast charging capability—in just 30 minutes, your phone will reach 85% battery.

PSC?remains out of touch with consumers
Too many state and federal officials seem to have fallen themselves for the assurances they blithely dish out to taxpayers, that somehow, increases in government spending won’t cost anyone anything.
West Virginia Public Service Commission officials need more money to repair the PSC headquarters building in Charleston. So the PSC will charge the utilities it regulates an additional $2.25 million annually for 10 years.
A PSC spokeswoman reportedly said the increase will not cost utility consumers anything. “It’s a cost of doing business for a utility in the state,” she noted.
Really? Every penny utilities spend for any purpose comes from consumers. Somehow, directly or indirectly, that $22.5 million will come out of Mountain State residents’ pockets. It’s a real shame at least some of those at the agency that approves utility rates don’t understand that.

He was a small, round-faced man with a moustache and a baseball cap and I always remember him with a bundle of writing under his arm. You’d see him out and about the village, sometimes hobbling along, when the sea air played havoc with his arthritis. He left us for Meza Arizona, where the climate agreed with him better. But he loved Strandhill and came back and visited - members of the writers’ group met him for a pizza in Bella Vista one time. He talked of another visit.
We corresponded annually at Christmas and he was always mad for news of the village and the other writers. When I didn’t receive a letter from him last year, I thought nothing of it but, a couple of weeks ago, the Christmas letter I sent him was returned unopened. I checked on Twitter and his account was closed. Then I found his . Phil died unexpectedly in Arizona on July 31st 2018 aged 63. He was a great guy. The world is poorer for his loss.
For those of us who knew him, here is a recording of Phil reading his wonderful short story A Native American in London. This was recorded in Dolly’s Cottage for the Dolly Mixtures (Voices from Dolly’s Cottage) anthology in 2005.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - Someone who bought a Mega Millions lottery ticket at a West Virginia convenience store is $1 million richer.
West Virginia Lottery Director John Musgrave says a ticket for Tuesday night's drawing that is worth $1 million was sold at the 7-Eleven in Belle.
The ticket is a match-5 winner, meaning the player matched all five white ball numbers and missed only the Mega Ball.
The winning numbers for the drawing were 8-14-17-20-39 with a Mega Ball of 7.

Drive the nation's highways this summer and you can't help but notice railcars parked on sidings. In the short term, less competition for freight is helping farmers and grain handlers (see "Silver Lining" below). "There's all sorts of excess capacity in the transportation industry now," says Jerry Fruin, University of Minnesota ag economist specializing in transportation. "But a year from now, as carriers contract, things might be dif-ferent" as carriers consolidate.
"Class I railroads have idled more than 200,000 railcars due to the recession," says Matthew Rose, BNSF chairman, president and CEO. His company alone has 43,000 railcars parked. "My biggest problem right now is finding a place to store all this stuff," Rose says.
Many privately owned railcars are out of service as well, says Ken Eriksen, Informa Economics senior vice president for transportation. And when railcars are parked on privately owned sidings, the railroads pay daily storage fees of $3 to $20 per car, he says. "On a monthly basis, that can be more than a car leases for."
Even with excess cars, railroads have not yet significantly dropped tariffs, Eriksen notes. "But with lower fuel costs and therefore lower fuel surcharges, rail rates actually paid are lower on an annual basis."
On the Roads. Trucking companies have likely been hit even harder. "There probably are 600,000 too many trucks in the system," says Eric Starks, president of Freight Transportation Research Associates. "The public guys are shedding equipment rapidly. It's somewhat alarming.
"Truckload rates have been coming down," he adds. "Through 2010, it'll be difficult for these guys to push rates up because there's plenty of capacity out there to move stuff."
On the Water. Ocean rates to ship grain from Gulf and Pacific North-west ports are currently less than half what they were a year ago.
Barge rates also have declined. "You've got fairly weak barge freight rates, and it will probably be that way for the foreseeable future," Eriksen says.
Due to the recession, grain is about all that is moving on barges right now, except for some fertilizer coming northward along the Mississippi River, Eriksen notes.
Depending on how long demand stays weak, operators may take railcars, towboats or ships out of service, hoping to preserve some rate stability. That will tighten up the capacity, Eriksen says. "Then, if you get a snapback in the economy and we get things going really hard, we could see some accelerated freight rates just because we've got stuff moving again."
Silver Lining for Farmers
Basis has improved through much of the Corn Belt, reports Kevin McNew, president of CashGrainBids.com. "We've seen basis levels return to what we used to think of as normal in the early 2000s. Farmers are not having to bear the impact of high transportation costs, so they've won in that sense," he says.
As the map shows, weaker barge rates have helped raise basis levels, especially in the Illinois and Ohio River regions, where rates fell 40¢ in the past six months (Mississippi River rates fell 20¢).
"Another reason Eastern Corn Belt basis has strengthened more than the Western Corn Belt is because corn use for ethanol has been sluggish," McNew says. That may turn around in 2009/10 because of new ownership of some key VeraSun plants, energy prices moving higher and corn prices dropping, he says. Acres also may be up more in the Western than the Eastern Corn Belt.
"Looking ahead for fall, barge rates are contracted at levels we were accustomed to last year when prices were still high," McNew says. "My gut says that those will come down when we get to harvest, so I think basis levels should be fairly favorable this harvest."

Some helpful guy named Scott commented on this Grognardia post that the Night Shade Clark Ashton Smith collections (five large volumes, normally hard to find and expensive) are available from Baen Ebooks for $6 each (or $25 for all 5). These editions are DRM-free and multi-format.
I just purchased the bundle. A quick perusal of volume 1 looks promising. The formatting is nice, and they have tables of contents. (I’m looking at the Epub format on my iPad using Stanza.)

Women’s Basketball No. 4 in SSC Preseason Poll
WINTER PARK, Fla. (Women’s Basketball) – With just over three weeks to go until the 2012-13 basketball season gets underway, the Sunshine State Conference released its preseason women’s basketball poll on Wednesday. The conference coaches and sports information directors picked Florida Tech to finish fourth in the upcoming season.
“I saw the preseason poll today and obviously it is a very tough conference,” head coach John Reynolds said. “We are looking forward to the upcoming season.”
The Panthers, who finished in a three-way tie for fourth place a season ago, received 117 points to sit in the fourth spot. Reigning SSC Tournament Champion Rollins ran away with the top spot, getting 188 points and 13 of the 18 first-place votes. The 2011-12 SSC runner-up Florida Southern was picked to finish fifth in 2012-13 with 88 total points. Barry, who finished in a three-way tie with Rollins and Florida Southern for the regular season title last year, was selected eighth with 74 points.
Nova Southeastern took the remaining five first-place votes to be positioned second, behind Rollins, with 165 points. Tampa rounded out the top three with 131 points, 14 more points than fourth-place Florida Tech.
FIT is coming off its fourth consecutive, and eighth overall, appearance in the NCAA Tournament. The Panthers finished the season with an 18-11 overall record, and held an 8-8 record in conference play. But they will have to replace four of their five starters, including last season’s SSC leading rebounder Briauna Hagins.
Junior Jasmire Brown returns as the lone starter from 2011-12. Brown played in all 29 games, making 24 starts and finished third on the team with 239 total points—8.2 points per game. The Panthers do have experience despite losing four starters. Three other returning players appeared in all 29 games last season, including sophomore Kayk Wilson and juniors Ida Gustafsson and Rita Acevedo. Senior Jami Chappell appeared in 28 games, making six starts.
Coach Reynolds strengthened the depth of his team by bringing in three freshmen and four transfers. Among the group of newcomers is Rosie Hynes. The Division I transfer from Troy University recently finished her fourth stint with the Great Britain National Team this summer. Peggy Smith also joins FIT after a redshirt season at Troy.
The Panthers will open their season with two home exhibition games against the Chilean National Team on Nov. 1, and then Webber International on Nov. 6. FIT will officially open the 2012-13 season with its Gatto’s Tire and Service Tip-Off Classic on Nov. 9. The Panthers will take on the University of Puerto Rico-Rio Piedras at 5:30 p.m.

DescriptionA millennium ago humanity was gifted with certain divine power in order to save the world from a being of unreasoning destruction: the Malicious. After they were victorious they were supposed to relinquish their powers to the heavens. They did not. Now, with the threat of the Malicious looming again, the powers needed to defeat it are scattered across the kingdom.
Malicious casts the player as the Spirit Vessel, a being, either male or female, that has been tasked with retaking the divine powers and defeating the Malicious. From the central hub any of the five bosses can be challenged at any time, but defeating a boss will strengthen all the remaining bosses. Each boss is too powerful to fight normally, which is why the Spirit Vessel must first defeat weaker enemies around them to build up Aura points. Aura points can be expended to power up individual attacks, heal, or to enter Burst mode, where normal attacks become effective against the boss. The Spirit Vessel starts with two weapons, a quick, long range projectile and powerful fists, and will acquire more weapons and abilities from the bosses they defeat.
Players are allowed to select whichever stage and even directly enter boss battles in the wished order. Completing the game unlocks a free battle mode and Score Attack mode.

Weight Management for Adult Women Living with Obesity during Preconception, Pregnancy and Postpartum
- This chapter addresses the management of weight related to three phases of a woman’s reproductive years
– preconception, during pregnancy and postpartum
– for adult women living with obesity. Although these reproductive periods are addressed separately, it is important to consider that these phases represent the continuum of weight management over the reproductive years in women living with obesity.
- During these time periods, women frequently access the healthcare system, thus providing clinicians with opportunities to support women in health-promoting behaviours and chronic disease prevention and management strategies that may have positive impacts on the short- and long-term health of both the woman and her children.
- Weight bias and stigma can impact access and quality of healthcare services as well as health outcomes for individuals living with obesity and should be addressed. Individuals living with obesity should be supported in a non-stigmatising manner to manage obesity-related health outcomes by continuing disease-management strategies that are safe and evidence based, and that increase the likelihood of achieving pregnancy-related weight gain targets.
- The obstetric and medical management for women living with obesity during pregnancy is beyond the scope of this clinical practice guideline.
These recommendations pertain to the management of weight over the reproductive years for adult women living with obesity (i.e., body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2) with a singleton pregnancy, who are ≥ 18 years of age and do not have pre-existing diabetes or gestational diabetes.
- General advice: We recommend healthcare professionals (HCPs) discuss weight-management targets specific to the reproductive years with adult women living with obesity: preconception weight loss (Level 3, Grade C)1-4, gestational weight gain (GWG) of 5 kg – 9 kg over the entire pregnancy (Level 4, Grade D5,6; postpartum weight loss of – at minimum – GWG (Level 3, Grade C)7,8 to reduce the risk of adverse outcomes in the current or in a future pregnancy.
- Combined behavioural-support interventions: HCPs should offer behavioural support interventions, including both nutrition and physical activity, to adult women living with obesity who are considering a pregnancy (Level 3, Grade C)8,9, who are pregnant (Level 2a, Grade B)10-16 and who are postpartum (Level 1a, Grade A)17 to increase the likelihood of achieving weight targets.
- Nutrition counselling alone: We recommend HCPs encourage and support pregnant women living with obesity to consume foods consistent with a healthy dietary pattern in order to meet their target GWG (Level 3, Grade C)18.
- Physical activity counselling alone: We recommend HCPs encourage and support pregnant women living with obesity who do not have contraindications to exercise during pregnancy to engage in at least 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity physical activity to assist in the management of GWG (Level 3, Grade C)19-22.
- Pharmacotherapy: HCPs should not prescribe metformin for managing GWG in women living with obesity (Level 1b, Grade A)23-25. We suggest no weight-management medications during pregnancy or breastfeeding (Level 4, Grade D)26.
- Breastfeeding: We recommend women living with obesity be offered additional breastfeeding support due to decreased rates of initiation and continuation (Level 3, Grade C)27.
- The reproductive years, including before, during and after pregnancy, bring many additional challenges for women living with obesity. Since obesity is a chronic disease, it is important for women living with obesity to seek advice and support from their healthcare professionals on strategies to optimise their obesity-related health outcomes over both the short and long term.
- When planning and entering pregnancy, aim to be at your best weight and optimal health.
- During pregnancy aim for weight-gain targets (5 kg – 9 kg) to reduce the risk of obesity-related health complications and poorer health outcomes. Seek support in aiming to return to pre-pregnancy weight and health in the year after delivery.

Decreased enrollment for the 2016-17 academic year will cause an estimated $10-14 million shortfall in Lindenwood’s operating budget, according to university officials.
Enrollment has dropped between 5 and 6 percent across all of Lindenwood’s campuses, according to Lindenwood Provost Marilyn Abbott. She said at a faculty meeting Jan. 25 that the decline is a result of downward enrollment trends being seen at universities across the country.
[perfectpullquote align=”right” cite=”Greg Phelps” link=”” color=”#f8de91″ class=”” size=”24″]“We had projected or assumed certain enrollments, and those haven’t played out for us.”[/perfectpullquote]
In the fall of 2016, Lindenwood’s St. Charles campus saw a drop of nearly 5 percent in total enrollment. Undergraduate day admission held the biggest decline, falling just over 6 percent. Spring enrollment is also down about 5 percent.
While reports by The National Student Clearinghouse Research Center show national enrollment rates have declined over the last six years, administrators say Lindenwood’s numbers have remained flat. Lindenwood’s Chief Financial Officer, Greg Phelps, said the university planned for enrollment numbers to remain steady when budgeting for the current fiscal year.
“We had projected or assumed certain enrollments, and those haven’t played out for us, so we are looking at our spending, budget and financial plan,” Phelps said. “We are adjusting accordingly.”
Tuition, along with housing costs and other fees, currently account for more than 92 percent of the university’s revenue, according to Phelps. He said that despite the shortfall, the university is not in any immediate financial trouble.
With sales pending on its facility in Dardenne Prairie, which formerly housed the nursing program, and the Linden Wood Club on Old Friedens road, in St. Charles, Phelps said the university expects to bring in about $10 million in revenue. He added that returns on other investments will also add to the total.
Overall, Lindenwood’s endowment sits near $140 million, according to tax documents from the fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2016.
“We are not in debt by any stretch of the imagination,” Phelps said. “That doesn’t mean that we as administrators or the board of directors don’t have a fiduciary responsibility to make sure we are wise with how we are operating the university.”
[perfectpullquote align=”left” cite=”Marilyn Abbott” link=”” color=”#f8de91″ class=”” size=”24″]“We are doing a lot of things to try to grow our enrollment, and we feel we will see some results,”[/perfectpullquote]
Abbott said the university is already hard at work reviewing enrollment numbers and other data to make financial adjustments. She added that the university is planning for enrollment in 2017-18 to remain similar to this year’s decreased numbers.
At last week’s faculty meeting, Abbott said one way the university was tightening the operating budget was by eliminating 10 faculty positions. Eight positions will be reduced through attrition, and two other faculty members have been notified that their contracts will not be renewed.
At the same time, multiple personnel positions will be added to high-demand and newly formed degree programs in hopes of boosting future enrollment.
“We are doing a lot of things to try to grow our enrollment, and we feel we will see some results,” Abbott said at the meeting. “If it becomes clear later in the spring and early summer that it’s not the case. then we might have to make some further adjustments.”
A tuition increase has not been ruled out, but Abbott said if a proposal is made, “students will receive the information as soon as possible.”

The pool features a breathtaking waterfall at the far end, that has a fire feature along the top. There are also pillars along both sides of the pool topped with waterfalls and fire pits, as well as fountain style jets that arch over the lazy river. And if that isn’t enough, there is a bridge that leads to an island with a swim up bar in the middle of the pool to relax and have a cold drink on a hot summer day. You can also quickly access the beach by using the private walkway with dune deck.

Thyroxine (T4) in serum was determined by competitive protein-binding analysis, the resin uptake of liothyronine I 125 (RT3) was measured, and a "free T4 index" was calculated as the mathematical product of values for T4 iodine (T4I) and RT3. Pregnant euthyroid patients and normal women taking estrogens had high values for T4I associated with low values for RT3. Sick euthyroid patients tended to have decreased values for T4I with high values for RT3. The free T4 index accurately reflected the state of thyroid function in euthyroid patients with disturbances of T4-binding proteins, as well as in patients with hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.

"EVEN IN RAGS I AM A GOD, FALLEN I AM DIVINE, HIGH I TRIUMPH WHEN DOWN-TROD, LONG I LIVE WHEN SLAIN!" - Sri Aurobindo (15 August 1872 – 5 December 1950) was an Indian nationalist, scholar, poet, mystic, evolutionary philosopher, yogi and guru; born Aravinda Akroyd Ghose, who first came to prominence in India's struggle for independence from the British.
Not Moving Even One Step by Jane Hirshfield. "The rain falling too lightly to shape an audible house, an audible tree, blind, soaking, the old horse waits in his pasture. He knows the field for exactly what it is: his limitless mare, his beloved... Slow rain streams from the fetlocks, hips, the lowered head, while she stands in the place beside him that no one sees. The muzzles almost touch. How silently the heart pivots on its hinge."

Principality of Liechtenstein | Fürstentum Liechtenstein
The Principality of Liechtenstein was established within the Holy Roman Empire in 1719; it became a sovereign state in 1806. Until the end of World War I, it was closely tied to Austria, but the economic devastation caused by that conflict forced Liechtenstein to conclude a customs and monetary union with Switzerland.
Since World War II (in which Liechtenstein remained neutral) the country's low taxes have spurred outstanding economic growth. However, shortcomings in banking regulatory oversight have resulted in concerns about the use of the financial institutions for money laundering. Liechtenstein implemented anti-money laundering legislation and a Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty with the US in 2003 and further anti-money laundering regulations like the Due Diligence Act (DDA) in 2009 and 2013.

Steven Sotloff's reporting trips took him to Libya, Egypt, Bahrain, Somalia and Turkey. But he disappeared in the country known to be most dangerous to journalists, Syria.
A video tweeted by Sotloff in 2012 shows the journalist was well aware of the risks, CBS News correspondent Jan Crawford reports. He said a Syrian jet was hunting him outside the city of Aleppo.
Almost one year later he had dinner with his friend, filmmaker Matthew VanDyke. Sotloff was about to return to Syria.
"He was a little apprehensive about going," VanDyke said. "Kidnappings had started around that time. ISIS had appeared just a few months before. He knew that each time he went back it was getting more and more dangerous."
The 31-year-old was a news reporter for much of his adult life. He was pepper sprayed by police and shot at by a sniper. But even when he was in danger, he managed to keep up with his favorite sports teams back in Miami.
His last tweet, one day before he was kidnapped, was about the Miami Heat signing center Greg Oden.
Sotloff grew up in the gated community of Pinecrest, the older of two children. His mother Shirley taught pre-school at the family synagogue.
"I remember him as a completely fun-loving beautiful spirit, really joyful, kind of goofy," said childhood friend Danielle Berrin.
As a child, Sotloff attended boarding school in New Hampshire, where he played football and rugby and discovered his passion working on the school newspaper. Sotloff studied journalism at the University of Central Florida. He eventually went to the Middle East.
"He was somebody who took the time to learn the culture and ways of the region," VanDyke said. "He wasn't just somebody who lept from conflict zone to conflict zone."
On Tuesday, friends gathered at the Sotloff home to offer condolences. His family asked to be left alone to mourn in private.
"The reason that we all know that Syria is dangerous is because of guys like Steven and James Foley, that went and told us that," VanDyke said. "Otherwise we would have no idea what's going on in Syria."
Sotloff spoke Arabic and Hebrew, and also worked and studied in Israel. It was revealed today that he had dual American-Israeli citizenship; a fact he tried to keep hidden from his kidnappers.

|Title:||Leonard Bernstein's Works for the Musical Theatre: How the Music Functions Dramatically|
|Author(s):||Snyder, Linda June|
|Department / Program:||Music|
|Degree Granting Institution:||University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign|
|Abstract:||This study of Leonard Bernstein's works for the American musical theatre attempts to demonstrate how the composer has explored the dramatic function of music in opera, operetta, musical drama, and musical comedy. The study is limited to his six works which contain a narrative line complete with character's names and plot. Most of the material analyzed was also studied in a performance setting. Aimed at producers, educators, directors, and performers of musical theatre, the thesis provides both general and detailed information on Bernstein as a dramatic composer.
The two introductory chapters are devoted to an overview of Bernstein's dramatic works and their place in the development of the American musical theatre, influential theatrical experiences, Bernstein's concepts of musical theatre, and the general character of his musical style. Some discussion is given to Bernstein's conviction that from the American musical comedy will emerge a distinctively American form of opera.
Chapter III discusses Bernstein's one-act opera Trouble in Tahiti in terms of musical characterization, musical elements of continuity, the relationship of the music and the text, and the use of the Vocal Trio. Separate chapters also deal with the comic operetta Candide and the musical drama West Side Story, examining the background and musical style of each. The final chapter considers Bernstein's three musical comedies, On the Town, Wonderful Town, and 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Several selections from each score (save the last which the composer has withdrawn) are examined in detail to demonstrate the music's dramatic function.
Bernstein's well-known eclectic style of composition is evident to some extent in all six works; he has used this mixture of stylistic elements to support, enhance, and advance the dramatic action. Moreover, as an innovator and leader in the development of a distinctively American musical theatre form, he has employed operatic techniques such as recitative, recurring motives, and related melodies, to maintain dramatic continuity, establish mood, and develop characterization. Included is a list of recommended songs and arias suitable for teaching material and recital repertoire.
