The PEG ratio, often called Price Earnings to Growth, is an investment calculation that measures the value of a stock based on the current earnings and the potential future growth of the company. In other words, it’s a way for investors to calculate whether a stock in over or under priced by considering the earnings today and the rate of growth the company will achieve into the future.
Definition: What is the Price/Earnings To Growth Ratio?
You can think of this like an improved P/E ratio because it factors in the growth of the company by dividing the P/E by the annual growth rate. Since P/E doesn’t even look at where the company will be at in the future, a stock might look attractive. In reality, the company’s growth pattern might be stagnant. When taking this into consideration, the stock might actually be a bad buy.
Although PEG is an improved version of the P/E ratio, it doesn’t make P/E a useless comparison. Most investors use both of these calculations for different reasons. It’s important to not rely on one calculation too heavily in any investing situation. Each metrics gives a little more information about whether the investment is a good one or not. It’s important to look at all of them.
That being said, let’s take a look at how to calculate the PEG ratio.
The PEG ratio formula is calculated by dividing Price Earnings by the annual earnings per share growth rate.
As you can see, this is a pretty simple equation if you understand how the numerator and the denominator are calculated. The numerator is calculated by dividing the market price per share by the earnings per share.
The denominator, on the other hand, isn’t as straight forward. Investors can use either the historical growth rate or an expected future growth rate to calculate the EPS growth. This can be somewhat problematic if the expected future growth rate is different than the historical rate because two different investors could get two completely different answers depending on what inputs they used in their equation. This difference is referred to as either trailing or forward PEG.
The PEG ratio is used to figure out whether a stock price is over or undervalued based on the growth patterns of the business in its industry. It’s a value calculation to see what the company is actually worth regardless of what the stock is currently trading for. Remember, stock prices are largely influenced by investor expectations, demand, and speculation. A completely worthless company could have a high stock price because investors keep pushing the price up. Look at Enron in the mid 1990s.
PEG aims to value the company based on what it produces and adjust that for the growth of the company. Since companies’ earnings and growth potential vary greatly among industries, there isn’t a standard number that indicates a good or bad investment. It varies greatly between industries, but the general rule of thumb is that any PEG less than 1 is considered a good buy because the stock price is undervalued.
As you can see, Pharm, Inc. has a P-E-G of .83 indicating that the stock price is low when the expected earnings of the company are taken into account. Pharm, Inc. would be a good investment; although, it’s important for investors to Pharm’s metric with other companies’ metrics because there might be an even better deal out there.

Manjushri - The Bodhisattva of Wisdom thangka beautifully painted by artist from Nepal.
Manjushri embodies the omniscient wisdom of enlightenment - the wisdom that discerns the true nature of reality. He can discriminate between correct and incorrect views and between beneficial and non-beneficial actions to be taken on one's spiritual path. He bestows intelligence, knowledge, wisdom, mastery of the teachings, eloquence and memory. His name means "gentle glory" and he is especially revered in Nepal, where he is said to have enabled the founding of civilization in the Kathmandu Valley. Manjushri is also the patron Bodhisattva of the Kadampa (i.e. Gelugpa) order of Tibetan Buddhism, which is famous for its master scholars, called geshes.
Manjushri's left hand is in Vitarka Mudra, the gesture of teaching and intellectual discussion. This hand also holds the stem of a lotus flower that supports the Prajnaparamita, or Perfection of Wisdom Sutra. The flaming sword in his right hand symbolizes the power of discriminating wisdom to cut through ignorance, the root of all suffering. Manjushri, in this sword-wielding pose, is representative of the courage and exertion needed to realize freedom.

Tonight, a look back at some of the headlines from 2015. From the Black Lives Matter movement, to the Paris terrorist attacks, to the Columbus Mayoral Race, to Marriage Equality, headlines were buzzing in the old year. Plus, a preview of the "New Year's Six" Bowl Games and the Citrus Bowl.

#TheGame: # 8-ranked Ohio State B*ckeyes (10-1, 6-1) travel to Ann Arbor to play # 12-ranked Michigan (9-2, 6-1) in the 112th edition of "The Rivalry". For the first time in 28 years, two coaches who know and deeply understand the importance of the rivalry take center stage.
Can Michigan beat Ohio, or will the B*cks make it 13 out of 15? Michigan is coming off a lackluster 28-16 win at Penn State, while Ohio's 23-game winning streak was snapped in a 17-14 loss to Michigan State.
- Since 1930, first-year Michigan coaches are 7-1 in "The Game": 2011 (40-34 win; Brady Hoke); 2008 (the one skidmark: a 42-7 Ohio thumping; R*ch R*dr*g**z); 1995 (31-23 win; Lloyd Carr, after Ohio receiver Terry Glenn talked smack); 1990 (16-13 win in Columbus; Gary Moeller); 1969 (24-12 - snapping Ohio's 22-game winning streak; "The Greatest College Football Team Ever Assembled" was Ohio in '69; Bo Schembechler); 1959 (23-14 win; Bump Elliott); 1948 (13-3 win; Bennie Oosterbaan; last outright UM National Championship); 1938 (18-0 win; Fritz Crisler).
- This is the first meeting where both teams are ranked in the AP Poll since 2012 (a 26-21 Ohio win in Columbus), and the Coaches' Poll since 2007 (a 14-3 Ohio win in Ann Arbor). The last Michigan win when both teams were ranked was 2003 (35-21 win; since then Ohio has gone 10-1).
- Jim Harbaugh was 2-0 as a starting quarterback (1985: a 27-17 win in Ann Arbor; 1986: "The Guarantee", a 26-24 win in Columbus) at Michigan, the latter game, Ohio Head Coach Urban Meyer was a graduate assistant under Earle Bruce.
- First game in "The Game" since 1987 (Earle Bruce & Bo Schembechler) with two coaches that understand the importance of this game.
- Since 1951, first-year Michigan coaches are 0-7 against Michigan State, but 5-1 against the B*ckeyes.
- No first-year Michigan coach has lost to the B*cks in Ann Arbor since 1929 (a 7-0 Ohio win).

Tonight, a re-broadcast of Show # 29, "I've Got Plenty To Be Thankful For...." (Originally Broadcast: November 21, 2011), which started a new tradition on WCRS, shaming the Ohio B*ckeyes. 2011 was a down year for Ohio, having lost their quarterback and head coach to a cash and memorabilia for tattoos scandal, and saw big players suspended for several games, including their star receiver, who sat out TEN games, for their roles in Tattoogate. Michigan was returning to its former glory under first-year coach Brady Hoke, and favored to beat Ohio for the first time since 2004. Michigan would go on to hold off Ohio with a Courtney Avery interception with 39 seconds left, as Michigan beat Ohio for the first time since 2003, 40-34.
Tonight's show previews that glorious moment in all of college sports, with a Scooby Doo-type spoof, plus celebrity chefs sharing their own Game Day recipes for the B*ckeyes.

Bashian takes great pride in being the longest running, family-owned importer of handmade rugs in the U.S. It was over three-quarters of a century ago, when a young Armenian immigrant named George Bashian began a business in handmade rugs in New York City. The year was 1931–the heart of The Great Depression.
From the start, Bashian had an eye for that “special rug” and possessed a keen comprehension of the tastes and trends of the public at large. In what was to become a company policy –and a standard for the industry to match- Bashian bought shrewdly, sold fairly, and insisted on complete customer satisfaction. As a result, Bashian’s business prospered steadily over the decades.
George’s revolutionary ideas to work with key “carriage trade” department stores, progressive outlook, and early development of rug collections from countries all around the world allowed Bashian to quickly adapt to the constantly evolving rug industry. Coinciding with these industry changes, a new generation of Bashians, George Jr., Garo and Ralph, joined the company. Together they brought retail experience, design and international business skills to the rapidly growing company.
The 21st Century has brought even more change and excitement to Bashian, including the development of their own design staff. What began as an importer and creator of traditional fine handmade rugs has naturally evolved into a modern lifestyle brand. The designers at Bashian have combined all of the elements of classic style with modern living. Their commitment to excellence and innovation, along with decades of experience, come through in each of their uniquely designed creations.

In June, Berkeley Lab managers brought aboard Lee Bernstein — a nuclear physicist who has been involved in national efforts to guide the focus and effectiveness of the U.S. Nuclear Data Program — to lead the renewed Nuclear Data Group.
The models that have been developed to describe nuclear processes — such as the intricate details of the fission reactions that release energy in nuclear reactors as atomic nuclei are split to form lighter elements — can be improved upon thanks to advances in tools and techniques, and a new round of experiments at Berkeley Lab will help to provide more precise measurements.
“When Rick told me he was retiring, I said, ‘Wow, here’s a great opportunity to do something between these two worlds (basic science and applications) and have nuclear data at the core,'” Bernstein says.

While no outcome is pre-ordained, many decisions have long-term consequences and some overarching future trends have already become clear. Understanding these trends and reflecting on the uncertainties that will affect the future, are essential for strategic success.
"The new year will begin with the greatest divergence for a generation between the general view of global risks and risks as priced in financial markets", Lawrence Summers, then-President, Harvard University.
"Interdependence is the defining issue of the 21st Century", Tony Blair, then-Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Risk conflation and interconnectedness make the world increasingly vulnerable to the cascading nature of risk-laden events.
Although tactical gains have been made in specific areas - such as terrorism, and an improved preparedness for a major pandemic outbreak, we are not addressing emerging risks purposefully or in a focused manner.

If you haven't yet succumbed to the hype of the Beautyblender, you sure are about to. The egg shaped sponge is a must have tool of amateurs and professionals alike, and for good reason. Not only does it allow you to create a flawless base (it can honestly make your skin look airbrushed!) it has a heap of alternative uses as well. For example sucking up half the water down your toilet when you drop it in…thanks mum. But do you want to know how to get the most out of your Beautyblender? Of course you do!
Well if not slightly obvious. We all know that this is exactly what the Beautyblender was created to do. And instead of just using it dry, a wee tip that I like to use is to wet your sponge before applying concealer or foundation. The small amount of water that the sponge holds will help your makeup to blend into your skin rather than to sit on the surface.
Very much like a tanning mitt - providing an even, streak free application - so does a Beautyblender due to the sponge texture, leaving no streaks.
A brush can often make it hard to cover all the hair and leaves streaks of colour, but by using a Beautyblender, the softness and texture of it will deposit the correct amount of dye onto your hair enabling you to touch up your roots.
And your glasses for that matter. Obviously I’m not suggesting using it covered in foundation or what not, but the sponge texture is perfect for getting rid of smudges and even little bits of dirt and dust. Just wipe instead of dabbing and your screen or glasses will be as clean as ever.
The last thing you want to do is get a deodorant mark out of your top with water (it will look as if you have been sweating…buckets). Instead, using a dabbing motion, go over the area with the Beautyblender. This allows it to pick up the product and dust away the excess. Ta-da!
Got a Beautyblender that’s seen its best? Cut it up and use it to create and achieve an ombre nail effect - the tip is perfect for different designs!
So hold on to that old Beautyblender, you never know when it might just come in handy!
Do you have any other Beautyblender hacks? I would love to hear them!

My friend called to tell me her mother had just died. It had not been that many months since my own mother left this earth. I found comfort in the realization that my mom was healed from the broken body the world chained her to.
“She’s healed now.” Those words were powerful for my own healing journey.
I did not share them with my friend. She and I were in different places in our journey. Her mother and my mother had been in different places. The words that spoke to my heart were just that – words for my heart.
Words shared today may not be intended for tomorrow. Words that heal your heart may only rip open a wound in another heart. Words need to be shared, but they should be careful studied and shared in their unique moment and time.
Words shared in their moment will ignite the soul and heal the heart.

An outpouring of community support through donations, both large and small, has made certain that Elgin Symphony Orchestra - Elgin, ILconcerts Saturday, May 5, 7:30 pm and Sunday May 6, 2:30 pm will be presented as scheduled.
The 2017-18 season finale concerts, led by Music Director Andrew Grams, feature the ESO premiere of the great American composer Leonard Bernstein’s Candide Suite as part of a world-wide celebration of the composer’s 100th birthday. The ESO and Gail Borden Public Library will host a free Bernstein Birthday Bash on Tuesday, May 1, 6:00 pm at the Library that includes an introduction by Andrew Grams, birthday cake and a screening of West Side Story. Bernstein composed the music for this iconic film. The season finale concert program also features Gustav Mahler’s passionate Symphony No. 5. The composer wrote the piece after a close brush with death, and it holds a dazzling array of emotions. Music Historian Jim Kendros will lead free Listeners Clubs discussions about the upcoming concerts on Wednesday, May 2 at 10:30 am at GreenFields of Geneva, and 1:00 pm at the Gail Borden Public Library. The public is also invited to a free open ESO dress rehearsal on Friday, May 4 at 7:15 pm, Hemmens Cultural Center. Reservations are required for the open dress rehearsal at ElginSymphony.Org. Concert sponsors are Presence Saint Joseph Hospital, Elgin Symphony League, Candace McCreary and Jodie & Rob Stackowiak. Music Director Andrew Grams will give a free pre-concert chat one hour before the performances. Saturday night patrons are invited to Mingle with the Musicians after the show at Bennigan’s Elgin at the Holiday Inn, IL31 and I-90. Concert tickets start at only $30. Student tickets are $12. There is valet service or free parking. For more information, visit ElginSymphony.Org.
While the final 2017-18 concerts are secure, an aggressive capital campaign is taking place to help fund the 2018-19 Season and raise funds for an endowment. For generations, the Elgin Symphony Orchestra has been a committed community partner leaving an indelible mark on the western suburbs. Like almost every US orchestra, the ESO has struggled with finances over the years. Production costs are high. Ticket sales never cover the entire cost, and in fact are responsible for only 35% of the budget. The remaining 65% must come from donors, businesses, corporations and municipal bodies. Donations can be made on the website at ElginSymphony.Org, by calling 847.888.0404, by visiting the office at 20 DuPage Court, or by mailing a check to that address. Monthly giving programs are available. IRA distributions, corporate matching, gifts of appreciated stocks and securities can be arranged by calling Niesa Patton, Director of Development, at 847.888.0404. Contributions to the Elgin Symphony Orchestra, a 501(c)(3) organization, are tax deductible to the fullest extend of the law. The ESO is exploring other fundraising avenues from a variety of sources.
What the ESO brings to the Fox Valley area is irreplaceable. It would take many years to replicate what has been created through the blood, sweat and tears of the individuals who built the institution. The Elgin Symphony Orchestra (ESO) is one of the oldest and largest professional orchestras in the state of Illinois, winning Orchestra of the Year from the Illinois Council of Orchestras a record-setting four times. ESO Music Director Andrew Grams is a superstar conductor with an international reputation, and he has taken the orchestral playing of the musicians to new heights. Concertgoers leave a performance “high” from the intense musical experience, raving about the Orchestra, and feeling fortunate to have such a quality artistic resource in their own backyard.
ESO concerts bring thousands of people to the area, helping enhance Elgin’s reputation as a cultural destination. These visitors spend money at restuarants, bars and other buinessness. Since 2012, the ESO has hosted Mingle with the Musicians after Saturday concerts at local restaurants.
The Elgin Symphony Orchestra is the largest music educator in this area because of its many years providing annual youth concerts. Hundreds of thousands of elementary and middle school children have been introduced to classical music, and the basics of music in general, through Ainsworth Concerts for Youth field trips.
The ESO has a successful, long-term partnership with Advocate Sherman and Good Shepherd Hospitals, providing ESO musician performances for patients, family & staff. This program is well-received and highly-valued for its ability to provide solace and healing to those involved.
The ESO is commited to presenting free open rehearsals, including two (2) the 2017-18 season.
ESO traveling ensembles appear at schools and in communities throughout the region.
Free, open-to-the-public masterclasses are offered in partnership with the Gail Borden Public Library. Young area student musicians work with leading performers in their field.
ESO Music Director Andrew Grams presents orchestra clinics at area high schools.
The ESO provides performance opportunities for students and adults in the lobby before ESO concerts.
The ESO creates programs and events through Gail Borden Public Library partnerships, including free pop-up concerts, movie screenings and Family Concerts.
Music Historian Jim Kendros gives free ESO Listeners Club talks in Geneva and Elgin.
Music Director Andrew Grams gives free Pre-Concert Chats before most concerts.
ESO concerts are regularly broadcast on WFMT 98.7, Chicago Classical Radio.
The ESO presents a radio show on WHLU-LP (Huntley Radio).
The ESO provides business community support through ESO Business Networking Nights and area Chambers of Commerce involvement.
The ESO offers social service organization support to Food for Greater Elgin, Rotary International, the VFW Poppy Campaign and Toys for Tots.
The ESO gives free tickets to underserved populations providing access to the arts for all.
The ESO cross-promotes and markets with other, smaller local arts organizations and businesses, providing them wider visibility to a large audience.
Now in its 67th season, the Elgin Symphony Orchestra (ESO) offers programming unmatched for an entertaining, informative and relaxing cultural experience. The ESO has won Illinois Professional Orchestra of the Year a record-setting four times - in 1988, 1999, 2005 and 2016 - and strives to create an enjoyable entertainment experience that goes beyond the magnificent music performed by some of the best musicians in the Midwest. The Elgin Symphony Orchestra is a world-class orchestra providing quality musical explorations that are entertaining, hassle-free and conveniently located close to home in the western suburbs.

NEW DELHI/LONDON: India, the world’s top gold consumer, has barely scratched the surface for exchange traded funds (ETFs) and it will be a long haul to tempt buyers clinging to jewellery to switch to rules-ridden paper gold.
Though the country consumes 800 tonnes a year – nearly a fifth of the world’s annual gold supply – in jewellery and physical metal, the funds have attracted investments of less than five tonnes since their listings three months ago.
In contrast, an ETF launched in the US in 2004 attracted investment equal to eight tonnes of gold on the first day and more than 100 tonnes in about a week.
Global gold funds now collectively hold more gold than the Chinese central bank, the world’s tenth-largest holder with 600 tonnes.
Analysts said bad timing and rigid government rules were equally to blame for not winning over more Indian investors.
“It has been launched at the wrong time when gold prices have started dipping. People are sitting with surplus cash, but the volatility has kept investors away,” said Mumbai-based Gnanasekhar Thiagarajan, director of Commtrendz Risk Management.
“Vibrant equity markets have also kept investors away from gold exchange traded funds (ETFs),” he said.
The Mumbai Stock Exchange’s main index surged 47% in 2006 and another 5% this year. Gold rose 24% in 2006 but is only up 1.6% so far this year.
Analysts said investment in Indian gold ETFs was a sure bet, provided investors were willing to hang on for a longer period and shed their desire to buy it physically. The interest was being stymied by lack of aggressive marketing.
“The awareness of this type of investment vehicle is still low. Also, if the ETFs have to reach the rural public, the account opening procedures and documents should be kept simple,” said SI Kannan, analyst with Kotak Commodities.
Mandatory requirements for an income tax identification number made the system difficult for illiterate farmers who buy gold. Rules that prevent commodity firms from giving price guidance were also hampering growth, analysts said.
Analysts said that other issues such as restricting trading in ETFs to Indian stock trading hours prevented investors from taking guidance from global price trends, especially from gold futures in the US.
Stuart Thomas, managing director of US-based World Gold Trust Service, said the poor response was also a result of the structure of the Indian products.
“With the market size of India, with growth in India, with the affinity for gold, I would call those products sub-optimal,” said Thomas, who heads the firm that has launched a gold ETF, which accounts for 75% of gold accumulated by global ETFs.
“It’s really a structural issue more than anything else. I think with the right product in that market with the right structure, you have got the massive offtake there,” he said.
Analysts said the design of the products – only in local currency, controls on imports and exports of gold bars, limitations on the foreign exchange trade and several rules imposed by the equities market regulator – scared investors.
“What has prevented us from really doing something in India is that the current regulations are not favourable for us to roll out our products the way we think they should be,” said Pierre Lassonde, chairman of industry-funded World Gold Council, which has sponsored and promoted several gold ETFs in the world.
Only about a dozen authorised banks and government trading houses are allowed to import and sell gold in India. Shipments of gold bars are banned, but gold jewellery can be exported.
But promoters of Indian ETFs, UTI Asset Management and Benchmark Asset Management, remain optimistic following a pick up in trading, though volumes were still small.
“We have about 10 kg of gold, or 10,000 units being traded every day on the exchange,” said Swati Kulkarni, vice-president of UTI Asset Management. “In May, 5,000 units were being traded.
In two years, I would think it will be a popular product.” Rajan, Mehta, managing director of Benchmark, which launched the first gold ETF in March, said its growth had been steady.
“It is a cultural shift and it takes time.

Over 75 million people suffer from sleep disorders and/or snoring. At our Fort Collins sleep disorder treatment centers we help our patients to achieve quality sleep. A lack of sleep affects your behavior, energy, immune system and emotions, which will lead to a slow deterioration of your health. 90% of people who snore experience apneic or sleep disordered breathing. Here are some of the different custom appliances we provide patients for OSA.
What can I do about Snoring?
If you feel snoring is a problem, discuss it with your dentist or doctor. You may be a suitable candidate for a custom sleep appliance (oral airway dilator), which is one of the most efficient and effective methods for snoring treatment.
How does a Sleep Appliance work?
At our Fort Collins sleep disorder treatment center we use a variety of appliances for snoring and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) issues. They are made and fitted by your doctor, and it works by moving your jaw and tongue forward, thereby creating more space for you to properly breathe during the night. This sleep apnea treatment reduces or eliminates snoring and helps open the airway. However, it is important that you are screened for TMJ and arthritic changes.
How does Snoring indicate Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
Snoring is often an indicator of something more serious called OSA. Snoring and OSA are similar respiratory sleep disorders.
Snoring occurs when the air you breathe vibrates the tissues of the airway due to a blocked or narrowed air passage (nose, mouth or throat).
OSA occurs when your breathing regularly stops or is slowed for 10 seconds or longer due to blocked or narrowed air passage (nose, mouth or throat).
Airway blockage may be caused by excess tissue in the throat or nasal passage, large tonsils, a large tongue and sometimes the structure of the jaw itself.
Why is Obstructive Sleep Apnea a serious problem?
Your body is being robbed of the rest it needs to function during the day when you are constantly awoken throughout the night.
OSA is classified as mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the number of stops (apnea) or slow breathing (hypopnea) per hour.
Patients with primary snoring or mild OSA who do not respond to behavioral measures such as weight loss or sleep position change.
Patients with moderate to severe OSA who are intolerant of or refuse treatment with nasal CPAP.
Oral appliances are also indicated for patients who refuse treatment or are not candidates for tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, craniofacial operations or tracheotomy.
High acceptance: 96% of patients report that they will continue to use their specialized appliance.

EN meets Laura Capell-Abra, career coach and founder of Stress Matters, to discuss the event industry’s often unhealthy relationship with the working week.
In the summer of 2018, a New Zealand-based company called Perpetual Guardian announced that it would be trialling a four-day work week. In October 2018, it announced that it would be making the change permanent, citing a 20 per cent increase in employee productivity.
A four-day work week might be highly unrealistic for the vast majority of event professionals, but the industry does arguably have a problematic relationship with the working week.
A study released by Stress Matters, an initiative with the aim of changing the culture of work-related stress, found that that around 20 percent of 200 surveyed event professionals are regularly working more than 60 hours a week.
Of course, no one enters into a career in events expecting to work a steady nine to five. Working on evening and weekends, seeing an increase in workload ahead of a big event and tight deadlines and turnarounds are all par for the course. Having said that, there’s no denying that the events industry is a high-intensity and stressful environment to work in, and was even found to be the fifth most stressful job in 2017, in a study from job site Career Cast.
Part of Stress Matters is the Stress Matters Pledge, a series of guidelines for employers to create a less intense and more productive working environment for their employees. The pledge recommends giving employees at least two days off for every 14 work days and not expecting staff to work more than 50 hours a week more than once a month.
Capell-Abra also recommends looking at workloads differently, letting staff work to objectives rather than within a specified period of time, which rewards quick and efficient workers rather than providing no incentive to work at a pace.
Working in events means that there are natural peaks and troughs in workload alongside an event cycle, but Capell-Abra says this is becoming less extreme as event companies diversify the type of work they to do.
The events industry by its very nature is highly entrepreneurial; small businesses are being launched constantly and starting a business is an endeavour that’s long been associated with working all hours of the day to make a dream a reality.
“What you find, which is quite interesting, is that when you look at some of the newer companies in the industry, they’re still very entrepreneurial but their approach tends to be a little bit different,” says Capell-Abra. “It’s not true for all of them but the organisations that were set up 20-odd years ago have the entrepreneurial hard-working spirit and the expectation that everybody will continue that through, and therefore it’s expected that people will work long hours.
The other side of the entrepreneurial coin is the freelancer, who is able to choose his or her own working hours, which may be a blessing or a curse.
“I do wonder whether there’s that plus point as a freelancer, whether they feel they have flexibility,” continues Capell-Abra. “They have to work harder and longer hours onsite, but they can give themselves a break between jobs.
Change in workplace culture inevitably has to come from the employers, which is why Capell-Abra and Stress Matters encourage business leaders to look at their company culture, and examine how issues like stress, mental health and welfare are being tackled and discussed.
Long working hours may be ‘just what the events industry is’ but losing talented professionals to stress or overwork is no good in any industry – and it’s an issue that we need to address.

I am not a witch. I’m a cute dog! I just dressed as a witch for Halloween.
Halloween scares me a little for one big reason.
Though I love the treats I get—an extra rawhide that’s vet-recommended—I don’t like the tricks part of it.
My BFF Shelley likes to dress me up for three reasons: sometimes on Halloween, always on Christmas and whenever it’s cold and we’re outside or on a walk. I’ve been a witch, a mechanic with a pink bandana and a school girl with a tan skirt and white cable knit sweater. And at Christmas, I have to wear my green T-shirt with an image of Santa with one of his reindeer.
But I don’t like it. When I was little, I’d squirm right out of my clothes, or bunch them up, or get my little paw caught in one of the arms. Now that I’m older, I just put up with it.
I’ve done some research and found that dressing up dogs in over-the-top costumes is usually for the pet owners’ benefit and not for the sake of the pet. It’s OK to dress us up to be warm but not if the costume physically restricts our movements or causes discomfort. Shelley puts me in a warm jacket or sweater if it’s cold out, and I like it well enough after I get used to the extra layer and understand I can still walk.
But when large sections of our bodies are covered by material, it’s hard for us to communicate with other dogs, particularly because body language is one of our major methods for expressing ourselves. Granted, I really don’t like other dogs unless they’re smaller than me, though I do like cats. Still, I need to get my message across.
Some dogs become scared or confused when they are dressed up, and some won’t express themselves. Things on our heads, like hats and hoods, can be particularly disturbing, because they’re in the way and we’re not used to them.
Anyway, here are some photos of me in costume, but as you can see, I don’t look that excited. I’d rather have a treat and no tricks and silly costumes.
I’m not very happy in my witch’s hat. My BFF Shelley took a photo and took if off of me, thank goodness!
I am dressed as a mechanic. This costume isn’t as bad because it doesn’t have a hat!
Why am I wearing a silly bow that matches my silly shirt?
I’m opening my Christmas presents. I’m wearing my Christmas shirt!
I am a very talented and cute dachshund named Zoey.
Nearly every week in 2016, I “sat” at the laptop (I’m a lapdog, too!) and wrote a blog about … well, mainly about me.
It’s because I like to “shake” things up as I “roll” with the flow.
Am I funny? I can do tricks and write my trick words into my post.
I’ve been blogging since 2011 about my life as a cute dachshund, sharing stories and photos to demonstrate the fact.
Being both a dog blogger and a canine poet able to write poems from a dog’s perspective.
Understanding dog behavior and what dogs need and want from their owners. I wrote about how pet owners—I call mine my BFF—need to let us know how much we mean to them, pay attention to us (like all of the time) and give us lots of treats (even healthy ones).
Realizing the elements of responsible pet ownership, like giving us healthy food without too many unhealthy table scraps, avoiding giving us chocolate and onions, and taking us on regular walks.
And, most importantly, telling really interesting stories from my own life.
I also wrote about cats, even though most of them don’t like me too much. I like cats, birds, geese and anything else in the animal kingdom, but not dogs, at least those larger than me. I bark at them, and they look at me as if I’m silly, so I bark again, while also wiggling my tail. They then ignore me.
I don’t like it, so I’ve concluded that cats are safer; they’re not keen on dogs, and I can just pretend they are.
In 2017, I may take a small break from blogging as my BFF and I figure out our blogging goals for the year. Like her, I’m not getting very many Likes, which I don’t understand, because I’m totally cute and fun and the best dog ever!

Bart Sibrel is a victim. At one point he was punched in the face by Buzz Aldrin. That happened after Sibrel harassed confronted Aldrin with his views on the moon landing. Sibrel, of course, thinks those moon landings never happened (it hasn’t gone unnoticed in Sibrel’s circles that Aldrin was a freemason either), and has devoted his career to showing that this is so by judiciously selective use of evidence, using James O’Keefe tactics to make astronomers look bad, quote-mining, motivated reasoning and in general engaging in various elaborate, tortured conspiracy theories.
He has produced two “documentaries” on the topic, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon (2001) and Astronauts Gone Wild (2004), and there is a pretty comprehensive review of Sibrel’s “evidence” in eight parts here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. And yes, it is pretty much obvious to anyone with even the most cursory knowledge of the technology and documentation that Sibrel’s understanding of the things he talks about or cites as evidence is, shall we say, cursory. Oh, and the footage used in A Funny Thing that Sibrel claims was accidentally sent to him from NASA (and interpreted to be evidence that the Apollo 11 astronauts were staging shots of the Earth to make it appear that the spacecraft was on its way to the moon) is in fact widely available and shows the astronauts practicing for an upcoming live telecast. Details, details.
Diagnosis: Vocal, aggressive, and deeply delusional.
I have to say that as much as I don't like physical assaults, Sibrel really goaded Buzz Aldrin into punching him by questioning Aldrin's honesty.
I want to see a re-match.

tragedies and sorrows that climax my final year.
that unrelentlessly numbed my very soul.
No one hears my lamentation, does no one care?
Where would I find tranquillity?
As I focus myself, the end is near.
The crimson thoughts shall carry me away.
each one has toppled down.
desires, lay as sands scattered upon the ground.

Today is the last day of June and tomorrow will officially be the start of the second half of 2017. It scares me how time passes but it gives me drive to want to get up everyday!
I've been working hard on coming up with new designs for storeunda and already thinking of designs for CNY 2018. I'm still in the process of learning and figuring out how to run a business, ultimate goal is definitely being able to create an experience and lifestyle through the brand and not just about selling stuff. It will take some time but I believe that patience and handwork will be the key to achieving that. For those who have a vision/dream, I'd say have faith!
Decked in Storeunda Haedi dress (rust), may your weekend be full of sunshine!

text: Directed immune cell migration plays important roles in immunosurveillance and immune responses. Understanding the mechanisms of immune cell migration is important for the biology of immune cells with high relevance to immune cell trafficking mediated physiological processes and diseases. Immune cell migration can be directed by various guiding cues such as chemical concentration gradients (a process termed chemotaxis) and direct current electric fields (dcEF)(a process termed electrotaxis). Microfluidic devices that consist of small channels with micrometer dimensions have been increasingly developed for cell migration studies. These devices can precisely configure and flexibly manipulate chemical concentration gradients and electric fields, and thus provide powerful quantitative test beds for studying the complex guiding mechanisms for cell migration. In the research of this thesis, a PDMS-based and a glass-based microfluidic devices were developed for producing controlled dcEF and these devices were used to analyze electrotaxis of activated human blood T cells. Using both devices, we have successfully demonstrated that activated human blood T cells migrate toward the cathode of the applied dcEF. Furthermore, a novel microfluidic device was developed to configure better controlled single or co-existing chemical gradients and dcEF to mimic the complex guiding environments in tissues and this device was used to investigate the competition of chemical gradients and dcEF in directing activated human blood T cell migration.

These photos were from before the smoke from all the wildfires in BC descended upon us.
Holy Moly it was bad - I kept thinking if it was this bad down here in the valley how much worse was it for the people close to the fires?
It is officially summer now. Our friends are vacationing in California. Our other friends are due to come home for a long awaited visit. We have not had rain in months - well rain of any import or measure. It is Dry. Dry. Dry. Water restrictions. And the forest fires. Over the weekend the hashtag #BCisonfire was trending.
I am having a difficult time finding my voice. I will push on and through the mess. I am the mother of twenty year olds now. That is proving to be more challenging that you might think. They are twins. You all knew that right? Not identical - in no way shape or form and yet they share common characteristics. They also do this crazy yin yang thing where one is doing well and on the top of their game and the other falls off the map - then they switch it up and the other circles round and rises to the top and the other struggles. Seriously. Their entire life they have been doing this. It is exhausting.
I am looking for new non fiction book to read. I have novels to read - assigned reading for Mr W as they are vetting some new literature for English curriculum - and I have committed to reading 5 novels this summer.
We are off to the Okanagan this weekend to see my folks. We will swim in the pool. Read books and magazines. Visit a few wineries and just enjoy the time away. Some business too. That is the great thing about having your own business is you fit it in your life.

Lok Janshakti Party chief Ram Vilas Paswan today accused BSP supremo Mayawati of making ticket distribution a "business" ahead of elections and said she was "never enamoured of Dalits but only with money".

Lok Janshakti Party chief Ram Vilas Paswan today accused BSP supremo Mayawati of making ticket distribution a “business” ahead of elections and said she was “never enamoured of Dalits but only with money”.
His comments came after senior BSP leader Swami Prasad Maurya accused Mayawati of “auctioning” tickets for next year Assembly polls in Uttar Pradesh and quit the party saying he felt “suffocated”.
“The cost of the ticket rises close to elections. Mayawati was never enamoured of Dalits but only with money. She has always made this (ticket distribution) a business,” Paswan told reporters.
He charged that this has been her “business to give tickets to those (candidates) who pay more money”.
Paswan is a prominent Dalit leader and Union minister in the NDA government.
Maurya, who was the Leader of the Opposition in the UP state Assembly, left BSP amid speculation that he might join the ruling Samajwadi Party and could be made a minister when Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav expands his Cabinet on June 27.

The ability to learn motor tasks is important in both healthy and pathological conditions. Measurement tools commonly used to quantify the neurophysiological changes associated with motor training such as transcranial magnetic stimulation and functional magnetic resonance imaging pose some challenges, including safety concerns, utility, and cost. EEG offers an attractive alternative as a quantification tool. Different EEG phenomena, movement-related cortical potentials (MRCPs) and sensorimotor rhythms (event-related desynchronization—ERD, and event-related synchronization—ERS), have been shown to change with motor training, but conflicting results have been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate how the EEG correlates (MRCP and ERD/ERS) from the motor cortex are modulated by short (single session in 14 subjects) and long (six sessions in 18 subjects) motor training. Ninety palmar grasps were performed before and after 1 × 45 (or 6 × 45) min of motor training with the non-dominant hand (laparoscopic surgery simulation). Four channels of EEG were recorded continuously during the experiments. The MRCP and ERD/ERS from the alpha/mu and beta bands were calculated and compared before and after the training. An increase in the MRCP amplitude was observed after a single session of training, and a decrease was observed after six sessions. For the ERD/ERS analysis, a significant change was observed only after the single training session in the beta ERD. In conclusion, the MRCP and ERD change as a result of motor training, but they are subject to a marked intra- and inter-subject variability.

I sat on the bench, quietly, thoughtfully, so pleased to be in this beautiful place called Blue Waters where peace reigns and turmoil melts away. The sun has broken through the trees, beginning its daily journey from the technicolor horizon and lays a kiss of warmth on my cheek. The dew is releasing its midnight grip on the marsh grass in front of me as the entrapped pools of water find their way to larger swirls and finally join the larger safe water coves. There is an expectant hush while I patiently wait for the visitors.
I wait expectantly, hopefully for that first sound; rasping, raucous honks that signal approach Sounds increase and multiply as the source draws nearer. I stand and shield my eyes to view the brightening sky and am rewarded. Here they come, winging their way to this comforting spot, formation flying at its best.
They are closer now and the leaders are directing the squadron to circle and settle into calm waters, splashing down in waves .Some of them are more athletic than others, coming in for a smooth landing as if the water surface was a runway; others crashing rather than gliding. “Oh well, I got down’” you could almost hear him say. One hundred? two hundred? Who could count them? Soon they are all down, swimming, roosting, preening, diving to check out the bottom, enjoying the needed respite that we humans understand so well. The turmoil of travel had vanished and peaceful rest takes its place.
I can’t tell you how many hours I spent at the Blue Waters while I shared the peaceful hours with these magnificent birds. But suddenly it was over with a tremendous upward explosion of energy as they left the surface of the water by some silent signal. The rest had been accomplished, the goals reset, and the next chapter of the journey was about to begin.
Farewell Geese. I salute your beauty, strength, and determination. Do drop in again .soon.

From pianos in churches to turntables in clubs, I love moving people.
Music is one of my natural gifts that I'm very grateful for. Piano was always easy for me over the 10 years I actively played. DJing the clubs and parties throughout college was the most fulfilling.
After consistently watching a local DJ friend of mine move people with his music, I was immediately drawn to the art. The turntables became a musical instrument for me that leveraged my creativity in full. I was never able to compose for the piano. Rather, I would simply play songs that were composed by another person. However, from my background in music through piano I was quickly able to compose enticing beats and mixes on the turntables that moved people. You know that euphoric feeling you get from a tune that makes you dance without a care in the world? Producing that feeling for others feels amazing.
My favorite aspect of DJing is the 'scratch' technique that produces a dynamic range of sounds by moving the record back and forth in concert with the cross fader of the mixer. DJs spend a lifetime perfecting the art of scratching, not to mention the plethora of other musical production components attributed to a good DJ.
Through piano I learned to appreciate a good melody, keep a rhythm, adjust my tempo and beautifully harmonize. It's such a dynamic instrument that I excelled in with dedication and much practice. I ended up winning first place in over four piano competitions across Pennsylvania. I also played the piano in my local church.

Luton boss Nathan Jones has urged his side to put another stunning month together as they looked to cement their place in the League One promotion race during December.
The Hatters claimed 10 points from a possible 12 in November, following up a haul of 15 from 18 in October, which has seen the Town chief nominated in the manager of the month award on both occasions.
Luton have a potential 15 point up for grabs before the new year commences, with home games against Fleetwood and Burton Albion, plus trips to Coventry, Scunthorpe and Walsall, as Jones said: “We want a good month again.
"We’ve been in good form and for me to be nominated for the last two months means that the team and the club is in a good place, and moving forward.
“That’s what we want from everybody as it’s not the team, it’s basically the full team and how the results are, so we’ve been in a good place.
Standing in the Hatters’ way of getting December off to a perfect start is a Cod Army side who have already won 5-0 and 4-0 at Scunthorpe and Doncaster respectively this season.
Former Premier League midfielder Joey Barton is at the helm after taking over in April and on facing the one-time Newcastle and Rangers player, Jones said: “We’re looking forward to testing ourselves against Fleetwood at the weekend as we do everyone.
“I haven’t come up against Joey, his career was far more illustrious than mine was, so I’ve had to wait until now to come up against him really.
“It’s his first job and he’s doing a real good job there in terms of where they are.
During Town’s last home game against Bradford, where it was goalless for almost half an hour before the Hatters scored three times in 10 minutes to eventually run out 4-0 winners, Jones hailed the hosts' ‘patient' and 'educated’ supporters.
He knows they will their full backing once more this afternoon as they bid to make it nine wins from 11 unbeaten home matches this season, adding: “We need our fans regardless of result or competition or the way the flow of the game is going.
“What we’ve got to make sure is that we’re at it though.
"We’ve got patient fans here, I don’t know how Fleetwood are going to set up, or what they’re going to do coming here, so it’s not like I’m saying we have to be patient, we might not have to be, it might be a different type of game.
