1 – Carry enough food on the plane to get you through one day… enough time to stock back up at your new destination. I called the TSA and found out that while you cannot bring liquids on the plane, you can bring your pureed fruits and veggies if they are frozen solid! As long as they are frozen solid when you go through security, you shouldn’t have any issues. So, the night before my trip I made three different puréed fruits and veggies and froze them solid in three different Tupperware containers.
All the frozen items were in a little flimsy beach cooler and kept each other cold. By the time we landed 5-hours later (and I drove an hour to where we were staying), they weren’t even thawed! I microwaved them for a few minutes and had a nice dinner. Then, I was able to go out and track down some more food to cook for the next day. It made the flight so easy knowing I had everything I needed.
2 – Call ahead to your destination to secure the necessities. Most hotels will have a microwave in the room or in the breakfast area, but call ahead and make sure. Also, most hotels have mini-fridges that you can rent for a few dollars a night… but call ahead to make sure. Most importantly, make sure you can get your hands on a stove or heating plate somehow… otherwise pack one so you have the tools to cook up some new fruits/veggies/meats on your own kitchenware.
If cooking meals becomes an issue, think about spending a few more dollars and renting a hotel room at an extended-stay hotel. These business hotels usually have a full-size refrigerator and a stove in each room… exactly what we need to make our meals.
3 – Map out your food restocking plan before you leave. Use google maps to find the nearest grocery store to your destination and print out the directions. Once you land and get unpacked, you can eat your frozen meal and head out to get stocked up for your trip. Having a plan with directions beforehand will drastically reduce your stress level about traveling on the diet.
4 – Plan out your meals and make everything in bulk as soon as you get there. Worrying about your meals will ruin a vacation. Make all the food you will need for your trip in bulk as soon as you can when you arrive. Having all your meals planned out and pre-made in the refrigerator will free up your mind to focus on being on vacation and having fun. It will allow you to completely relax and enjoy the trip.
5 – Repeat everything on your trip back home. It can be just as stressful coming home as it was leaving. Make the frozen Tupperware for the trip home and that will again buy you time to settle in at home and unpack before you have to run out and get more food. A better idea yet would be to prepare a few days worth of meals before you leave for your trip and leave them in your freezer. Then, call a friend or relative to stop by the day before you arrive home and have them put a few of those meals in the refrigerator to thaw out. That way you will be able to relax and transition smoothly into being home again with a few meals all ready for you to heat up.
Traveling on the SCD diet is all about planning. Proper planning will drastically reduce your stress level to the point where you won’t have to worry about your food at all. It was the biggest hurdle I experienced so far since I have been on the diet and it went flawlessly. My family and I had a blast in Arizona and I was never hungry or worried!
Hi, I was diagnosed with Crohns at age 16. I went on the SCD diet for seven years! Never cheated! I know what’s it’s like going shopping, hopping to find just one snack that actually fits with the guidelines of the diet, and tastes good.
It’s not easy! Well guess what? I decided to be the one who will help all those on the SCD diet, GAPS diet… finally have something ready made to buy, that taste so good, that actually can be confused with an ordinary bar on the shelf!

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday, 25 February, targeted the Modi government, alleging that though the Centre had intelligence inputs about the Pulwama attack, it did not take any step as it was more keen on "playing politics over the dead bodies of jawans".
The BJP-led Union government wants to create a “war hysteria” ahead of the Lok Sabha polls to draw political mileage, Banerjee claimed.
Addressing the Trinamool Congress's (TMC) extended core committee meeting, she alleged that in the last over four-and-a-half years, the BJP, along with forces like the VHP and the RSS, has tried to divide the country on religious lines by injecting the "poison of hatred and communalism among the masses".
She vowed to oust the "dictatorial Narendra Modi government" from power in the upcoming general election.
The TMC supremo, who had organised a conclave of over two dozen anti-BJP parties at the Brigade ground in Kolkata on 19 January, is all set to attend a crucial meeting of the opposition parties in Delhi on 27 February.
She claimed that the TMC will win all the 42 Lok Sabha seats in West Bengal.
"Why did they not sanitise the road taken by the CRPF jawans," she asked.
"They want to create a war hysteria ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. They want to create an atmosphere of war and gain politically," she said condemning the attacks.
On 14 February, 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel were killed in Jammu and Kashmir after a Jaish-e-Mohammed militant rammed an explosive-laden vehicle into their bus in Pulwama district.
Criticising those who have been taking out bike rallies with national flags in the middle of the night over the Pulwama attack and beating up people in the name of nationalism, Banerjee said action will be taken against such elements as only “criminals and dacoits” take out their bikes at midnight.
"The VHP, RSS and the BJP are such forces which have not only tried to divide the country on religious lines but has also infused the poison of communalism and hatred among the masses. We have to remove this dictator Narendra Modi and Amit Shah from power to save the country," she said.
The central government is functioning in a peculiar way and Union ministers are not aware of important decisions, Banerjee claimed, adding that the government is being run by two brothers (Modi and Amit Shah), who have the blood of innocents on their hands.
Accusing the Modi government of pursuing vendetta politics, she said whenever any opposition party tried to speak up against the Modi government, central agencies such as the CBI and the ED have been used to harass them.
Banerjee had sat on a dharna for three days recently over a CBI action against outgoing Kolkata Police commissioner Rajeev Kumar in the Saradha chit fund scam.
A prime mover of the opposition coalition against the Modi government, she supported the collective leadership of the anti-BJP alliance.
"Those who claim to be leader on their own are not leaders. A person who is respected, loved and appointed as leader by others is the real leader," Banerjee said, taking a veiled dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah for frequently alleging that the opposition alliance doesn't have a leader.
Taking a dig at Shah's claim that the BJP will win more than 23 seats in Bengal, Banerjee alleged that the saffron party will try to tamper with the EVMs to reach its target and hence, is making such claims.
“We have to be cautious and thwart those efforts,” she added.
Setting a target of winning all 42 Lok Sabha seats in the state, Banerjee asked party workers to not pay heed to the proposed alliance between the CPI(M) and the Congress in the state, and said both parties are likely to have a covert understanding with the BJP to fight the TMC in Bengal.
The CPI(M) and Congress had forged an alliance in the 2016 assembly polls against the TMC in the state. The alliance had failed to have an impact as the TMC won 211 seats in the state.

Law c’tee chairman: Letter is "interference"; Labor MK Bar: MKs should see critiques as a warning against supporting bill.
Knesset legal adviser Eyal Yinon, in a strongly worded letter Tuesday, fiercely criticized the electoral reform proposal that Knesset Law Committee chairman David Rotem (Likud Beytenu) is expected to pass in a preliminary reading in the Knesset on Wednesday.
Rotem’s bill would increase the electoral threshold to four percent, limit the number of ministers including the prime minister to 19 and extend the amount of time a new government has to pass a budget from 45 to 100 days. The bill would require no-confidence motions to be submitted by at least 61 MKs who agree on an alternative candidate for prime minister.
If that candidate were to be unable to form a government, the Knesset would not be dissolved.
If the bill passes in its preliminary reading, Likud Beytenu’s coalition partners intend to veto and remove key clauses in the bill before it is passed into law. Yesh Atid will hold a conference with electoral reform organizations on Wednesday to determine how best to change the bill.
Labor MK Hilik Bar wrote Yinon asking whether Rotem’s bill was anti-democratic.
In his response to Bar, Yinon wrote that he could not prevent the bill’s advancement but that he would send a letter to all MKs asking them to be more careful with controversial legislation.
“There is no illegality in the proposal because the Knesset is permitted in principle to change Basic Laws and the rules of the game,” Yinon wrote.
Regarding the requirement of 61 MKs to submit no-confidence motions, Yinon wrote that it was wrong to change the rules of the game immediately with the current Knesset so the bill should not take effect until the next Knesset if it passes.
He also suggested giving the opposition a new way to express itself other than no-confidence motions.
“The result of the legislation would be the cancellation of the institution of no-confidence motions as the central platform for deliberations and government criticism and the central tool of the opposition to obtain the public’s attention on issues,” Yinon wrote.
Yinon said the change would violate the principle of the government requiring the Knesset’s confidence. He also criticized the proposal for canceling the role of the president in dispersing the Knesset, writing that such a change would enable prime ministers to advance elections to a time that would be convenient for them politically.
Bar said MKs should see Yinon’s letter to him as a warning not to vote for the bill on Wednesday. He called upon the coalition to immediately backtrack from the bill and instead begin a serious process of considering change in the electoral system that would not cause significant harm to Israeli democracy.
Rotem wrote Yinon expressing outrage over the letter. He said it was wrong of Yinon to question MKs’ understanding of the ramifications of the bills they propose.
“Submitting your legal opinion to all the MKs before they vote is improper interference in the legislative work of the Knesset,” Rotem wrote.

If you are wondering how to improve the quality and ranking of your site on search engines, it’s time you take a look at some of the most relevant engagement metrics.
There are ways to prove to search engines that your site is posting valuable content and that you deserve to rank higher in searches when people are looking for information on your area of expertise.
Examining some of the top engagement metrics is a good place to begin if your goal is to boost your SEO and rank higher on search engines.
Below, we give you five engagement metrics to consider when working to improve the quality of your site and therefore rank higher.
Your site traffic is a general term covering things like how many people are visiting your site, including both total visits and direct visits. This is one of the biggest factors playing into your ranking on search engines.
Having a high amount of site traffic suggests that you have some great content that really appeals to a wide range of people. Search engines want to show helpful, relevant content to as many people as possible.
If people are helped find what they’re looking for when they use a search engine, it will keep them coming back. Thus, sites with high traffic are sites that search engines are eager to direct their users to.
If hundreds, thousands, or even hundreds of thousands are visiting a site, chances are that other people looking for information on a similar subject will want to see it too.
Your bounce rate is a percentage that is calculated by your site visitors’ behavior patterns. To break this down in more simple terms, if people come to your site and then immediately bounce, you’ll have a high bounce rate.
Think of it like a house party. If people show up and then immediately bounce because they don’t like what they say, the rating of your house party is going to go down. You have a high percentage of people bouncing because they aren’t immediately impressed.
On the other hand, if you attract people to your house party and they park their car, come inside, stay a while and check it out, you can trust that you’re throwing a good party.
When people stay, move through a couple rooms, and then leave after taking a full tour, you have thrown a successful party.
It works the same way for websites. The lower the bounce rate, the better. If people come to your site and visit only one page before clicking away, this suggests that your site is boring or unappealing.
If your site does not appeal to the visitors who arrive there, it will not do well in search engine rankings.
This is another one of the engagement metrics you have to look at if you want to improve your search rankings. If people spend a very short amount of time on your site, this suggests that they are not finding anything worth keeping them there.
If your site visitors show Google from their behavior that your site is not worth their time, Google will take the hint. On the contrary, if they spend a lot of time there, Google will assume you have some high-quality content to offer.
If your site is difficult to use or navigate — or if it takes way too long to load — people will skip. Having a site that is well built and user-friendly — keeping your visitors’ attention — will help them spend more time on your site.
Since this is one of the engagement metrics that seems to play into search engine rankings, you’d be wise to take a look at it and come up with some creative strategies to draw people to spend more time on your site.
Page views is another important metric to look at. You should not only look at the total number of page views across your site’s pages but also which pages are getting the most traffic and where that traffic is coming from.
Understanding which pages are the most successful or drawing the most attention is really useful information. If you know what does well, you can do more of it.
If your audience responds really well to certain kinds of posts, like listicles or information guides, you can create more of them.
Having a high number of page views with people clicking around through several of your pages and taking the time to actually read what you’ve written and published is very good for your traffic.
It shows that many people are interested in what you have published and that you must be providing valuable information because people are scrolling through many of your pages and taking time to read them.
Lastly, one of the engagement metrics that search engines look at is how people are engaging with your content and site.
Are people commenting, discussing, and joining in a conversation? Are they spreading the word by sharing your articles and showing others that your site is worth checking out?
This shows search engines a form of social proof. It proves to them that website visitors have found something worthy of sharing on your site.
The same goes for social media sites. As more and more people interact with a piece of content and respond to it, it will be shown to more and more people so that everyone can join in the conversation.
This makes sense: if something is really admirable or interesting, platforms want to show it to as many of their users as possible. It gives them a great metric to reference when it comes to knowing what people will enjoy seeing in their search results or social media feeds.

Upper in the ideal needs to be made from organic materials for example leather or breathable fabrics to make feet as comfortable as possible.
Linings needs to be constructed from breathable materials such as leather or tissue to hold the foot fresh; they need to be slick and seam-free.
Sole must deliver sufficient adhesion to prevent slipping as well as protection and easing-off for effortless walking.
Toe box should be of sufficient depth to avert rubbing and help toes to jiggle.
Fastenings - straps or laces with clasps or touch fastenings help to contain your foot securely within your shoe.
Heel should have a broad base, and should be no bigger than 4cm (1,5").
Insole must better be removable to help easygoing insertion of filling or orthotic devices.
Heel counter strengthens the heel cup and besides stabilises the foot upon floor contact.

He has Dementia - I have Gift Cards!
This Year it has been a difficult year of illness and increasing dementia...... and he has just found his multitudinous Gift Cards under his lap top!
He wants to send his children something...... what shall he send?
Give me a real present any day of the week! It's my birthday in December - how I hope I do not get a W H Smith Gift Card !!
Oh Mary, make sure they don't expire during the ping pong game. I agree real presents , unexpected and with some thought put in win every time.
We just write down on the fridge (magnetic whiteboard) what we would like for Christmas. It doesn't mean you can't be given something not on the list, but if you are struggling, the list is there. Since No.1 son has a January birthday, mine's February, and M's is in March, very often what we don't get for Christmas we get for our birthdays.
Some things may be vague, for example I might want a new pair of dressmaking scissors.
Other times it may be very specific, i.e. some bobbins for an Elna SU sewing machine - and I'd say where they were available.
As a result my sewing room is full of presents my sons have given me, going back many years. Much better than chocolates, I'm fat enough already. Sometimes I ask for a SMALL packet of Ferrero Rocher, or Rafaellos. I don't usually have any chocolates in the house, my will power isn't very good.
When we bought presents for lots of people it was a nightmare. Then I met an elderly friend who was in a group that couldn't get together very often. They realised it was so expensive to post things, and came up with a new idea. Didn't send any presents, but each Christmas would buy themselves one larger thing, to the value of all the presents they would send, and then tell the others what they'd bought themselves. So sensible.
My grandmother used to rewrap chocolates up next year and pass then on!
" Hope you enjoy this. Sorry it's secondhand. I bought it in Nat West!"
What would you buy yourself with twenty pounds? I think I would spend it on a trip to the cinema. Or buy myself a really lovely bunch of flowers.
Gift tokens are very limited to one chain of shops.
My 5,10, 20 pound gift is a universal gift token to be spent anywhere one likes.
it's the wrong colour or size for you .
And it raises a smile on recipients faces, something that a pair of socks or a scarf etc.
as a present will never do, if one uses my wording re Nat West etc.

I moved to Los Angeles when I transferred to UCLA nine years ago. I grew up on a farm in Central California so the adjustment to city life and the might of UCLA was interesting. The campus, the buildings, and the city were all so big! But when I graduated with my degree in 2002, I knew I wasn’t ready to leave yet.
I became a staff member by fate, securing an Administrative Assistant position in the Department of Education, where I stayed for two years. In 2004 I moved to the Department of Psychology where I have since held a Student Affairs role in the Psychology Undergraduate Advising Office.
In addition to my counseling roles, I am also responsible for coordinating the Departmental Honors Program, Orientation, and the annual Psychology Undergraduate Research Conference. Through these programming roles I have developed a passion for graphic design and marketing. I am taking classes at UCLA Extension in Design Communication Arts and plan to eventually find a career in marketing at UCLA.
In 2004 I participated in the Staff Enrichment Program which allowed me to connect with many wonderful employees across campus. UCLA is big to me in so many ways. But through all-staff programs and groups like Staff Assembly I have come to believe that UCLA is in fact a small world! Involvement in all-staff events will quickly remind anyone at UCLA at how interconnected we are despite our varying specialties. It excites me to be involved in a group of professionals who make these connections possible.

I often refer to pastorates as “mid-sized” groups to distinguish them from the “small” groups people are so familiar with. However, a pastorate is not primarily defined by its size. A group of 30 people meeting in a home may not be a pastorate if they function more or less like a small group. A group of a dozen people might be a strong pastorate if they function like one.
Small groups usually function like a single-celled organism. The emphasis in a small group is on being together -- together in the same conversation, together in a discussion about a Bible passage, together around a table enjoying a meal.
One main principle of pastorates is that there is never just one conversation going on. Tim Matthews, the pastor who has overseen the pastorates ministry at Holy Trinity Brompton for the last five years, says that when he sees his pastorate starting to all share in the same conversation, he’ll intentionally turn to someone next to him and start a new topic. That way there are at least two conversations going on.
What’s the big deal? Why worry about having more than one conversation at a time? Simply this: If we function as a single cell, it limits how many people can function in leadership, how many people can comfortably join the group, and how many people’s needs can be met through the group’s time together. Pastorates always function with more than one cell, more than one conversation.
In every facet of a pastorate’s gathering, you’ll see this principle at work, with one possible exception. The possible exception is that during worship and word time, the pastorate is usually all focused together, just as a larger congregation gathers as one unit to praise and to hear God’s word. So in this way, a pastorate functions a little like the larger church gathering, the “celebration.” In every other time, however, the pastorate functions with multiple cells: During the meet-and-greet time, there will be a half dozen tiny knots of people enjoying independent conversations. After hearing the word, the pastorate may separate into buzz groups for conversation and prayer. Even going out into the neighborhood or into the world in mission, the pastorate usually has several smaller knots of people working together as multiple cells.
It is often tempting to have one large group discussion in a pastorate. However, this is a way of growing the pastorate down into a small group and should be avoided.
Scheduling is another way pastorates function differently than small groups. As noted above, pastorates meet twice each month for a three-month term, then take a month off (April, August, and December). Because pastorates are significantly different from small groups, it’s wise to encourage people to form their own cell groups to complement the life of the pastorate. At Central we call these cell groups D4D groups (Designed For Discipleship). They are groups of two to five men or women -- groups are gender specific. They are not expected to multiply, but rather to grow deep together into God’s word and into one another’s lives over time. Most often they meet twice each month, ideally on the “off” week when the pastorate is not meeting. D4D’s function most often as closed groups, not inviting newcomers in. As people observe D4D’s and want their own, they’re encouraged and supported to form new groups.
So pastorates, by virtue of the fact that they’re always multi-celled, are inherently able to welcome newcomers. D4D groups are not expected to do that. Those who crave the stability, depth, and intimacy of the small group are able to experience it, and yet the pastorate provides an engine for evangelism, for mission, and for leadership development. Pastorate leaders always try to cater to the newcomer so that the discussion avoids intensity that might be off-putting to a newcomer. That kind of conversation is more appropriate to the cell group.

COLUMBUS, OH (June 22, 2017) – Children’s Hunger Alliance, a statewide non-profit organization dedicated to ending childhood hunger in Ohio, today expressed its gratitude to the Ohio Senate for including a generous investment of $250,000 per year in the biennial state budget. With this funding, Children’s Hunger Alliance will have the capacity to expand its programming in four core areas – early childhood nutrition, afterschool meals and snacks, school and summer nutrition expansion and nutrition education.
One in five Ohio children are food insecure, but that number increases to more than one in four children in southeast Ohio, where Children’s Hunger Alliance’s is focused on maximizing federal nutrition programs where the need is most critical. Children’s Hunger Alliance works alongside community partners to implement sustainable solutions to childhood hunger, leveraging the USDA’s federal nutrition programs, administered by the Ohio Department of Education, to offset food and administrative costs. For every $1 Children’s Hunger Alliance invests in programs, $3 in federal child nutrition funds is returned to the state of Ohio.
Last year Children’s Hunger Alliance provided approximately 5 million meals and snacks a year to Ohio children through its partnerships with 275 afterschool programs, 12 daycare centers, and nearly 900 in-home child care providers throughout Ohio. They also helped increase access to school breakfast and summer meals for thousands of students. The organization also led more than 2,000 children and child care providers through nutrition education curriculum to create a foundation of healthy eating.
The state budget now will be considered by the joint Budget Conference Committee, which includes members of both chambers. Once the Conference Committee drafts its recommendations, the budget will be sent back to the House and Senate for final approval.

Questions were answered by Wade Lairsen, Senior Director of Gen Next.
Gen Next is an exclusive organization of successful individuals dedicated to learning about and becoming engaged with the most pressing challenges facing future generations. Our mission, our makeup, and all of our projects are focused on the future, and, therefore young people.
Our Members are very successful individuals and most are in their 30s and 40s because of our culture and mission focus, butthere is no official age requirement. The membership model is then inherently youth focused. Issues we tackle are motivated by a desire toempower future generations, and we group those issues—economic opportunity, education, and international security—by what are the most interrelated and high impact.
One example of a direct youth oriented project we helped launch is an organization grown out of Gen Next called the Alliance for Youth Movements. Members of Gen Next launched an organization that connects youth around the world who are using social media to rally for pro-democratic causes in many hostile or violent countries.
Our network of Members is one of the most dynamic, successful, and influential—top CEOs, entrepreneurs, thought leaders, and more. They’re engaged in the organization because it’s a platform to learn directly from the news and decision makers with a premier network, and then identify and invest in thehighest impact causes in our issue areas. Membership in Gen Next is by invitation only and requires an annual contribution of $10,000, so it’s not just for anyone. Young philanthropists should try to get involved with Gen Next only if they’re successful, intellectually curious about how the world works, passionate about our issues, and want to work with this network to exact major systemic change over time.
Just this year, we hosted exclusive and intimate, off-the-record discussions with individuals like the Former CFOs of Microsoft and McDonald’s, the former Director of the CIA, Republican and Democrat political leaders, and more. When we meet with top executives, we don’t only talk about corporate strategy, we also brainstorm and plan how, as successful individuals with vast resources, to change the world.

Members of the Hawai’i Police Department’s 79th Recruit Class were recognized Friday (July 15) during ceremonies held at Nani Mau Gardens in Hilo.
The police recruits, who just completed 5 1/2 months of intensive training, will undergo four months of on-the-job field training with veteran police officers before they are qualified to work alone.
During Friday’s ceremony, class President Peter P. Tourigny said most of the recruits were born and raised on the Big Island but some members traveled from Oahu, Maui and as far as New Hampshire to be here. Prior to entering the Police Department, he said, the recruits worked as school teachers, retail sales associates, farmers, armored truck drivers, college students, personal trainers, loss prevention agent, police dispatcher, corrections officer, former police officer and amateur dancer.
During the ceremony, three of the recruits received special recognition for their excellence in training. They were Branden K. Watanabe, who excelled in academic training, Vaughn S. Kelii, who excelled in physical fitness training, and Vice President Amy C. Masuyama, who excelled in firearms training.

Now Hosting Two Visiting Specialists at our Local Clinics.
In our continued effort to increase our community's quality of care, we are now hosting two visiting specialists.
Dr. Lamblin and Dr. Francisco provide a broad range of musculoskeletal care and orthopaedic surgeries to patients throughout Fremont County. To further enhance our patient care services, we are hosting two visiting specialists at our local clinics. Our hope is that this will allow our patients the ease of a local clinic visit and minimize the need for out of county travel to receive treatment.
Dr. Jeff Poffenbarger is a neurosurgically trained spine surgeon from Cody, who will be seeing patients on various Mondays at our Riverton office. Dr. Poffenbarger specializes in the care of patients who suffer from spinal injuries, chronic back pain and arthritis, disc herniations and degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, and other spinal injuries and conditions.
Dr. Poffenbarger received his medical degree from Georgetown University and completed internship at Madigan Army Medical Center and residency at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. He served his country honorably for 22 years in the United States Army and now practices neurosurgery at Big Horn Medical Center in Cody, Wyoming.
Dr. Eric Linford is an orthopaedic foot and ankle specialist from Casper, Wyoming. He will be offering clinics on a monthly basis in our Lander office. Dr. Linford offers expertise in ankle arthritis, complex foot and ankle trauma, chronic ankle and foot pain, bunions, hammer toes, and diabetic foot wounds.
Dr. Linford obtained his medical degree from the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine and then completed an orthopaedic surgery residency at the Medical College of Wisconsin Affiliated Hospitals. Dr. Linford obtained additional training in foot and ankle surgery through a surgical fellowship at North Sydney Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center in Sydney, Australia. He now practices at Casper Orthopedics in Casper, Wyoming.
For more information regarding upcoming Fremont Orthopaedics clinic dates for Drs. Poffenbarger and Linford or to schedule an appointment, please contact Fremont Orthopaedics at 307.332.9720.

When we think of development prospects in our country, our minds immediately go to urban development projects and recent missions like Smart City Mission, JNNURM and the like. Cities are described as growth engines of a country’s economy. However, what the urban-centric approach of development fails to acknowledge is the role of rural areas in the sustainable development of our nation.
Most urban development projects provide for infrastructural needs of the cities but do not address the underlying issue. The ever increasing population of our country, and the increasing urbanization rate accompanied by increasing migration trends from rural areas has put our already stressed cities under even more pressure. Moreover, the urban rural divide in terms of economic conditions, physical and social infrastructure facilities further worsen matters.
On one hand, we keep burdening our cities, often more than their carrying capacities, whereas on the other hand the resources in our village remain underutilized or ill-utilized.
A simple solution to tackle this problem would be to strengthen our village infrastructure and diversify the rural economy in order to ensure a holistic development of our nation.
The first part of the solution involving planning and implementation is rather straightforward. The basic infrastructural needs, in terms of both physical and social facilities – such as water, electricity, drainage, sanitation, solid waste management, roads, transport, education and health facilities – have to be calculated as per the population and detailed project reports for the same need to be prepared. There are various central and state government schemes under which funding can be availed for the same.
However successful implementation of such projects needs honest effort from the government as well as the people. The people need to voice their needs clearly to the authorities, and the authorities need to work towards achieving these goals with community participation and involvement. This would ensure better planning and implementation.
The second part of the solution requires a more detailed study and analysis of the condition in each village, their specific strengths and weaknesses. Economic diversification can never have a blanket solution, even for villages in the same region.
However, the alternatives to the existing economic activities in the villages need to be in alignment with the traditional, cultural and inherent practices in the region. For example places adjoining tourist circuits can be encouraged to develop rural tourism, places with a predominantly agricultural background may develop agro-processing units which would lead to value addition to the end product and increase income levels in the agrarian economy.
Job retention, job creation, new business opportunities can improve employment conditions, especially for the youth. Additionally, it revives and enhances community pride along with the preservation of local heritage and culture. What we find, however, in the name of rural development is imprudent practices that attempt to mimic the cities. The rural communities often lose their rustic essence in the process; moreover, such development, it at all any, is often at the cost of the environment. There is thus a strong need to plan and develop with due consideration to the environment, social traditions and culture.
The government of India recently launched the Shyama Prasad Mukherjee National Rurban Mission to address the very same problem. The mission aims to improve fourteen aspects of the rural areas, which include the economy apart from social and physical infrastructure in these areas. The mission also aims to reduce the migration trends from rural to urban by providing in situ development in such a manner that would help in sustenance of the people, without compromising with the rustic essence.
For this purpose, 300 ‘rurban’ clusters have been identified all over the country and an integrated clusters action plan is being prepared for the same. Each cluster has a funding of a maximum of Rs 100 crores for its development, with 70 percent to be availed through various central and state government schemes and the remaining 30 percent to be obtained from the central government.
The process of rural development requires a strong baseline study involving community involvement at the grassroots level. This makes the entire process labour intensive and time consuming. Moreover, in the process of plan formulation, the voice of the people at the lowest level is often lost, with only a few people representing the community.
There is especially a need to involve the marginalized groups, the elderly, women and children in the process to ensure an inclusive approach. Hence, there is a need to follow a bottom-up approach in such development projects. Also capacity building at the lowest levels is essential for proper implementation, operation and maintenance of such projects.
A new study by the Housing and Land Rights Network (HRLN) finds the government scheme seriously lacking in inclusivity and social justice. Patralekha Chatterjee reports.

Père Ubu first appeared in 1888 in a collaboration between Alfred Jarry and a fellow student at the Rennes Lycée, but his first public appearance came in 1893 when Jarry published some of prose works in an avant-garde review, the Minutes de Sable Mémorial. His triumph, however, was on the stage when the director of the Theâtre de l'Oeuvre, Lugne-Poe staged a production of Ubu Roi. The audience received the play with screams, whistles, fist-shaking, the critics took up the cudgels and the play became infamous and its author an avant-garde hero. A later work, Les Gestes et Opinions du Docteur Faustroll, Pataphysicien, launched a new science, Pataphysics, the "science of imaginary solutions," which was revived half a century or so later by an international group of writers including Raymond Queneau, author of, among many other works, Zazie dans le Métro, and counting Pierre Alechinsky, one of the founders of the COBRA group, as at least a fellow traveller. Ambroise Vollard was much taken with Ubu and enlisted Rouault (beginning c. 1918; first published 1932) to prepare illustrations to Vollard's own sequel to Ubu Roi, the Réincarnations de Père Ubu. After Rouault, Max Ernst, Picasso, and Réné Magritte all produced works illustrated the monstrous Ubu's monstrous deeds; Miró was also deeply committed to Père Ubu, illustrating three texts, Ubu Roi (1966), Ubu aux Baléares (1971), and L'Enfance d'Ubu (1975). As presented by Jarry, Père Ubu is a bully, an ingrate, a coward; Miró's Ubu is all of these but most of all a force for chaos. Jarry's Ubu is the exiled king of Aragon who has become Captain of Dragoons, aide to King Wenceslas, and bearer of the Order of the Red Eagle; he shows his gratitude by killing the King, the Queen, and all but one of the Royal family: he is always cursing, always plotting, always running away, and always abusing those weaker and even more cowardly than he. Miró's Ubu is always more or less incomprehensibly running about and running amuck. An English translation (edited by Simon Watson Taylor) of Jarry's Ubu plays was published by Grove Press in 1968.
There is absolutely no difference in the lithographs in the HC portfolios or in the numbered portfolios. The only physical difference between the 75 signed and numbered color impressions and the 205 unsigned color impressions in the edition of 205 is that the 75 were printed on larger paper and have margins and were published in a larger portfolio and do not have centerfolds (there is also, needless to say, a very substantial difference in price between the signed and numbered color impressions on paper with large margins and the 205 impressions with centerfolds. We have 7 of the unsigned color impressions with centerfolds measuring 422x646mm priced at $2250 and 4 of the signed and numbered impressions printed from the black stone measuring 540x740mm priced at $8100 (including number VIII and X).

For the uninitiated, the Sawtooth Relay is a 62-mile team relay running race that takes participants from Stanley to Ketchum. The course follows the postcard-pretty scenery of Highway 75 and has never left this old slow-poke disappointed after seven finishes. This year, the race takes place on Saturday, June 11.
Some folks walk it, other nimbly-bimbly types sprint it. The standard format is a six-person team with everyone running two 3- to 6-mile legs—although there are a handful of brave souls who solo the entire event. The after-party is worth the pain.
But to get to the party, you have to participate, and to participate, you have to register. The race isn't until June, but the application must be postmarked by Wednesday, April 13—or tomorrow. With a 310-team maximum and currently more than 200 teams posted on the website, time is truly of the essence. Registration forms are available at sawtoothrelay.com.
Last year, I made it to the post office with five minutes to spare, and qualified somewhere between 300 and 310. Trust me, it's not worth the stress of maybe not making the cut or having your teammates steaming mad at you until next year's race, where they'll surely make you run the Galena Summit leg as punishment.

Motley Fool Australia » Investing » Qantas to end European flights?
Qantas Airways Limited’s (ASX: QAN) shares have taken off in morning trade, on reports that the company is set to establish an alliance with the world’s largest airline, Emirates, which could turn-around Qantas’s international business. In 2011 alone, the international business reported losses of over $200m on reported capital invested of over $5 billion.
At lunchtime, Qantas shares were up 6.6% to $1.055.
According to the report in today’s Australian Financial Review (AFR), Emirates and Qantas are working on a code-sharing deal which would see Qantas fly to Dubai and rely on Emirates to transfer passengers to destinations across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Emirates has the largest international network of any carrier in the world, with 30 destinations in Europe and 18 in Africa, and the agreement would give Qantas passengers easier access to all those destinations. The fact Emirates planes are younger on average and more luxuriously appointed, suggests most Australians wouldn’t have a problem transferring to an Emirates flight after landing in Dubai.
Qantas currently flies to only two destinations in Europe, London and Frankfurt, and is set to pull out of Frankfurt, due to the region’s economic woes and worsening outlook, which would leave London as its lone European destination.
The report also suggests that the new deal would almost certainly mean the end of Qantas’s long association with British Airways. More than 25% of Qantas passengers flying into London transfer to British airways to head back into continental Europe. That traffic would likely dry up instantly with the Emirates deal.
With a fuel bill of over $4.4 billion per year, the deal for Qantas appears to make some sense.
For Emirates, the deal would deliver Qantas’s dominant share of domestic traffic away from rivals such as Singapore Airlines, which has formed an alliance with Virgin Australia Holdings Limited (ASX: VAH).
Despite the reports of a deal, there’s a long way to go before it becomes concrete. Should it fall through, Qantas’s options for its international operations could be limited. As a worst case scenario, we could see Qantas stop flying to Europe altogether, concentrating on Asia and its domestic operations.
One wonders how long it will be before Qantas turns its attention to its under-performing 29% stake in Jetset Travelworld Limited (ASX: JET), especially since Qantas launched the Hooroo online accommodation site, which appears to be a competitor to TripAdvisor. Jetset shares have lost more than 50% of their value over the last 12 months.
In my opinion, investors would be better off considering investments in Sydney Airports Limited (ASX: SYD), which has many of the airlines’ benefits, with far less risk.

I am currently selling my LV bag on ebay...and altho my better judgement tells me not to, I really dont want to keep this bag around.
So i get a message from someone that wants to send me a company check, she said she'll overnite it to me if she should win the auction. She has 450 feedback and she mentioned she was a powerseller, and that she wanted to know if that's ok before she bidded.
Should i accept the check? My auction is for paypal acct holders only...so I'm not sure how she's going to get around that...but maybe she has a paypal actt but doesnt want to use it? She has good feedback...I just dont know what could go wrong. WHAT COULD GO WRONG!?!?
what protection do you need since she pays w check? she has to worry if you run away.right?
You have nothing to worry about. She is taking the risk, just make sure the check clears the bank before you ship.
ETA: If she sends it from a bank that is also local to your area, take it there and cash it. That way you will know the funds are there.
I personaly dont like checks, and wont take them, so if she says she doesnt get the bag then what? she cant file a claim with ebay?
My auctions are PayPal only too but I do take other methods from buyers with 100% feedback, like 70 positive feedbacks. I tell them beforehand that I will ship the bag after money is cleared and I haven't had any problem that way.
ITA , and this is what I do. If the bank the check is from is not local to you, maybe you can take it to a check-cashing place. Some will charge as little as 1%.
If, for next time, you decide you want to accept PayPal only, you need to check the option "PayPal account required" (or something like that) when you do your listing.
My worry would be that the check gets reported stolen. It would be far better, if there is a better to checks, if it was at least her own personal check.
It could be that she owns the company or her husband/family. It shouldn't matter...as long as the check clears before you send the bag.
My auction is paypal bidders only...and I guess she has a paypal acct but wont be using it.
I was also thinking the same thing, wouldnt she be the one that should be worried?
-I'm secretly hoping, in the back of my mind, that someone wanting to pay with paypal will bid higher than her.
I wouldn't feel comfortable at all accepting a personal check, especially a company check. There are too many risks there.
If this buyer has cash in a bank account, they are more than capable of getting that cash to purchase a postal money order.
A postal money order is the only thing I would accept.

Fritton, Saint Edmund Church, NR31-9EZ.
Fritton, Saint Edmund Church, Possibly a church built in the ages of King Canute, though the age is really placed as unknown. there has been a church in Fritton for 900 years though. proof of that lives in the Saxon finds unearthed. There is Lisene strip-work outside of the apse, (the only example in the county) The other Saxon features are:- Walls with level stone rows, walls batter, low wall plate, apsidal chancel, groined roof, mural recess and single-light windows. The church is dedicated to Edmund, King and Martyr who was killed by arrows in A.D. 870. The church was extensively restored in 1855, and further work in 1926. The building has a thatched roof. Fritton, Saint Edmund Church, near Long Stratton, round west tower with octagonal upper storey, 3 bells, nave, chancel and south porch. The base of the tower is Norman, and a doorway of that period leads into the vestry. The rest of the church is a mixture of Decorated and Perpendicular. The ancient rood screen remains with paintings. There are some good mural paintings, one of Saint George and the Dragon, another of Saint Christopher. There is a holy water stoup outside, as well as inside the porch. (Saint Christopher was a Canaanite, 5 cubits (7.5 feet (2.3 m)) tall and with a fearsome face. While serving the king of Canaan, he took it into his head to go and serve "the greatest king there was". He went to the king who was reputed to be the greatest, but one day he saw the king cross himself at the mention of the devil. On thus learning that the king feared the devil, he departed to look for the devil. He came across a band of marauders, one of whom declared himself to be the devil, so Christopher decided to serve him. But when he saw his new master avoid a wayside cross and found out that the devil feared Christ, he left him and enquired from people where to find Christ. He met a hermit who instructed him in the Christian faith. Christopher asked him how he could serve Christ. When the hermit suggested fasting and prayer, Christopher replied that he was unable to perform that service. The hermit then suggested that because of his size and strength Christopher could serve Christ by assisting people to cross a dangerous river, where they were perishing in the attempt. The hermit promised that this service would be pleasing to Christ. After Christopher had performed this service for some time, a little child asked him to take him across the river. During the crossing, the river became swollen and the child seemed as heavy as lead, so much that Christopher could scarcely carry him and found himself in great difficulty. When he finally reached the other side, he said to the child: "You have put me in the greatest danger. I do not think the whole world could have been as heavy on my shoulders as you were." The child replied: "You had on your shoulders not only the whole world but Him who made it. I am Christ your king, whom you are serving by this work." The child then vanished).

Which, if you pause to consider the actual narrative rather than the hauntingly beautiful dance work, makes perfect sense. After all, this tale from ancient Russian myth features a prince who falls for a woman (Odette) who has been transformed by an evil baron into a swan. Amid the protestations of undying love there is betrayal, tragedy and death. The dancing here is so breathlessly passionate, purely because it exists right on that fine line between love and pain.
Houston Ballet’s production, which comes to Dubai Opera this week, takes its initial inspiration from pre-Raphaelite painter John William Waterhouse’s 1888 work The Lady of Shalott. It makes sense: it’s a painting depicting the Tennyson poem where a maiden in love with Sir Lancelot defies her curse for a moment of freedom. Choreographed by Australian director and artistic director Stanton Welch, his Swan Lake – which premiered in 2006 – opens by referring directly to The Lady of Shalott; Odette floating on the lake in a boat, to meet the fate that will eventually befall her.
Welch has certainly received plenty of plaudits for the way in which his interpretation of Swan Lake both stays true to the ideals of the 19th-century production and finds relevances for 21st century audiences enticed by the likes of Darren Aronofsky’s dark, cinematic and Oscar-nominated take on the tale, Black Swan.
In Welch’s version, we see the characters trapped by the evil Baron Von Rothbart’s swan spell as women as well as swans, and there’s a far greater emphasis on the male dancers, who in the traditional show enjoy a lot of stage time, but not a huge amount of steps.
They certainly do. Indeed, one of the most interesting versions of recent times is Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake, back on tour and replacing the female corps-de-ballet with a menacing male ensemble. The menace in Houston Ballet’s version – particularly in Rothbart’s all-black outfit complete with cape – is similarly important amid the graceful beauty and emotional charge of the libretto.
Dubai audiences will enjoy that full emotional charge, too; this touring version features the entire three-hour score, complete with live orchestra and sumptuous set design. When the tears come by the tragic end, the audience might even agree with Tchaikovsky.

TUCSON, Ariz. – Customs and Border Protection officers at Arizona’s Port of Lukeville arrested three individuals for separate attempts to smuggle a combined 480 pounds of marijuana worth an estimated $240,000.
marijuana from within an RV.
Friday evening, officers referred a 63-year-old Scottsdale, Arizona man for further inspection of his Ford motor-home as he attempted to enter the U.S. from Mexico. After a CBP narcotics-detection canine alerted officers to a bed in the RV, they found close to 344 pounds of marijuana worth almost $172,000.
On Sunday afternoon, officers referred a 35-year-old Tucson woman for a secondary search of her Mercury sedan. Officers working with a CBP narcotics-detection canine then located multiple packages of marijuana in the backseats and trunk. In all, officers removed more than 85 pounds of marijuana worth almost $43,000.
Later that afternoon, a 26-year-old woman from San Antonio, Texas, was escorted to a secondary search area for officers to search her Toyota sedan. A canine team helped officers find more than 50 pounds of marijuana, valued in excess of $25,000, in the trunk’s spare tire well and luggage.
Officers arrested all three subjects and turned them over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations. Officers also seized the drugs and vehicles.
