SEOUL (Kyodo) -- A former Supreme Court chief justice was indicted Monday on charges that he abused his authority to influence trials as a political tool to lobby the previous government.
Yang Sung Tae, Supreme Court chief from 2011 to 2017, is the first former or sitting South Korean chief justice to be indicted.
He was placed in pretrial detention on Jan. 24 after being questioned several times by the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.
The 71-year-old is alleged to have misused his position to lobby the office of then President Park Geun Hye for the establishment of a new appeals court.
He is also accused of delaying top-court rulings on controversial wartime forced labor cases involving Japanese firms, at a time when the Park administration was seeking friendly ties with Japan.
The Supreme Court eventually ruled on the wartime labor case in October, upholding a lower court ruling that ordered Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corp. to pay four South Korean plaintiffs 100 million won ($88,000) each in compensation for forced labor.
The decision and subsequent rulings against Japanese firms in South Korean courts over similar wartime labor cases have drawn criticism from the Japanese government, chilling ties between the two countries.

A Little Song, a Little Dance : Matthew Broderick's immediate future is a bit of a blur: He's starring in his first musical, directing his first movie, and he'll see two more films open this fall. Doesn't this guy know how to stop.
"I don't know what I was thinking--I thought I could whip off a musical in between shooting and editing a film," Matthew Broderick says with a laugh during a break in the second week of rehearsals for the La Jolla Playhouse revival of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," which opens today.
"A roll, of course, can be a positive thing or a boulder going downhill," adds the 32-year-old actor, who also has featured roles in Alan Parker's "The Road to Wellville," which opened Friday, and Alan Rudolph's "Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle," out Dec. 21 in Los Angeles.
As if that weren't enough, Broderick is also making his directorial debut this year with "Infinity"--a film in which he also stars--about Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman, based on a script by Broderick's mother, Patricia Broderick. "Infinity," which also stars Patricia Arquette, wrapped in early September, leaving Broderick just enough time to catch a plane to San Diego to begin rehearsals for "How to Succeed." When the musical closes on Dec. 4, Broderick will race to Los Angeles to spend six weeks editing "Infinity," then it's off to Washington, where previews for "How to Succeed" begin Jan. 28. That will be followed by an engagement of the play on Broadway, where it is to open March 6.
"How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," a scathing attack on corporate America based on the 1952 best-selling novel by Shepherd Mead, finds Broderick cast as J. Pierrepont Finch, an unctuous young man who approaches brown-nosing as an art form. The musical, with music and lyrics by Frank Loesser, opened on Broadway in 1961 and made a star of Robert Morse, who also starred in David Swift's 1967 movie of the play.
The part demands a lot of Broderick, who is called upon to sing and dance onstage for the first time as he portrays a character who could easily come off as repulsive if not given the proper shading.
The fact that he has a daunting year of work stretching ahead of him may account in part for Broderick's subdued demeanor at today's rehearsal. This isn't to say that Broderick isn't up to the job; when director Des McAnuff gives the signal and the cast springs into action, Broderick lights up like a Christmas tree.
He is, however, clearly a man who knows not to squander his energy, to speak softly, pay attention and give what is asked of him with as much precision as possible. He is, in short, a team player, and the team he's working with here seems quite fond of him.
"Matthew is a total delight, and I'm having a great time with him," says McAnuff, a director known for his ability to breathe new life into threadbare material. "I felt no trepidation at all about his ability to carry a musical, either, because he has a beautiful singing voice and he's a tremendous actor. The greatest performances in musicals have generally come from actors, not from singers who act, and he's done tremendously well so far.
"Bobby Morse gave one of the great performances of the time in the original production, but Matthew brings a different style of comedy to the role," McAnuff continues. "He has a truthful acting style that elevates the play, he's mercurial, impish and bold in his comedy choices, and he infuses the play with sophistication and charm. Without a lot of charm, this character wouldn't be interesting. Matthew has charm to burn, but he's also a man of substance, which the character he's playing definitely is not. . . . An actor needs some distance from his material, and the fact that Matthew is so unlike Finch is part of what makes him great for the part."
A fascination with Finch isn't what attracted Broderick to the play. He's here, he says, simply because "I've always wanted to do a musical and was attracted to this one because it's really funny and it has great songs."
"Bobby Morse got discovered with this play, and people keep saying to me, 'He was such a phenomenon in the part; aren't you afraid to try to follow him?' " adds the actor, nibbling at the tuna sandwich that will sustain him through five more hours of vigorous rehearsing. (One would imagine he'd be training like an athlete for this grueling role, but he says he's just relying on lots of coffee to get through the day.) "My career isn't gonna end or be made on this play, because I'm a known entity.
"I've always wanted to sing and took loads of voice lessons before we started because I had a lot of apprehension about it. I tried to do some singing for 'The Lion King' (Broderick was the voice of Simba), and after three attempts they fired me and got somebody who sounded like me to do the singing. That didn't do much for my confidence. Then my singing teacher, Keith Davis, died four days before we started rehearsing."
Though the play is obviously a creative risk for Broderick in many ways, the real risk it presents lies in the fact that the boyish, bubbly Finch has a lot in common with Ferris Bueller, the title character in the 1986 film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."
"I think I've almost gotten past being typecast as Ferris Bueller, but this play isn't going to help that, because it's basically the same role. Nonetheless, if I have to put a gun to their heads, audiences will accept me in adult roles," he says with a laugh. "Actually, adult roles are the only thing I've done for the past few years--nobody's noticed though, because none of them have been too successful."
True, Broderick has been playing adults of late, but they've all been adults of a certain type. What type might that be? Nice is a word that comes to mind. . . .
"I haven't consciously avoided playing evil characters or being in violent films, but I tend to not like those scripts when I read them and don't like seeing those kinds of films," he says. "I think I could play evil characters, but the way this business works is, if you're successful at something, everybody wants you to keep doing it again--you know: 'Let's get that Ferris Bueller guy.' A couple of times I've been sent evil characters, but even then, they're usually lovable boyish types who happen to murder women."
Broderick does move in a slightly darker direction, though, in "Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle," Alan Rudolph's revisionist view of writer Dorothy Parker and the other legendary New York wits of the Algonquin Round Table. Broderick, cast as writer Charles MacArthur, a notorious rake who broke Parker's heart, employs his boyish charm here to suggest something dark and manipulative.
"Charles isn't evil, but he's weak; he's a cad basically and is an alcoholic, as everybody in the film is. This should be a winner--a bunch of suicidal alcoholics," Broderick says with a laugh. "Anyhow, getting the part was a nice break for me because I don't usually get these kinds of roles."
"He has it in him to be one of the most rounded acting talents of his generation; he has the depth and charm of the classic Hollywood legends. He was a huge star before he was 25 years old, and we've just seen the tip of the iceberg of what he's capable of."
Broderick's character in "The Road to Wellville"--the film based on the novel of the same name by T. C. Boyle--is more in keeping with parts he has played before. The fictionalized account of life at the San, a health clinic built in Battle Creek, Mich., at the turn of the century by corn flake magnate John Harvey Kellogg, finds Broderick cast as Will Lightbody, a sexually frustrated husband with a gullible, gorgeous wife played by Bridget Fonda, who leads him around by the nose.
"It's a reactive role, but it had so much to react to," Broderick says of Will Lightbody. "I envisioned the character as a whining 5-year-old who was always throwing tantrums. In fact, I have a picture of myself making a painting when I was 5 years old, and I have paint dripping all over my legs and look like a crazy man--I wanted some of that in this performance."
Parker wanted Broderick not so much for ability to telegraph craziness but because, he says, "Matthew's capable of great subtlety, and you never see the joints in his acting. He brought a gentleness to this part too that was better than how it was written, and I think that's a big part of why he's a movie star--there's a gentleness to Matthew that people simply like. I hate to gush, but he really is an extraordinary gentleman and is a delight to work with. He's extremely unspoiled considering that he's been doing this since he was very young."
Broderick was born in New York City in 1962, the youngest of three children. He essentially grew up in the theater: His father, James Broderick, was an actor, and his mother, Patricia (Biow) Broderick, a playwright and director.
"I had an arty upbringing," he says. "My mother is well read, so the conversation in the house was pretty cultured, and I went to the theater when my father was in it. We went to museums a lot; I spent time in Europe, and for a period I considered becoming an artist--I used to love drawing and still do.
"Initially I thought I might want to have some kind of backstage job because the first thing I fell in love with was the environment of the theater more than acting itself. I was a shy kid who didn't like being the center of attention. Well, actually, part of me loved it.
"The first movie that made an impression on me was Charlie Chaplin's 'Modern Times.' I thought it was hilarious and romantic and loved everything about it. I idolized Chaplin and loved the way he moved--in fact, I used to make paintings of him. I started out wanting to be a comedic actor, and it never occurred to me to also pursue directing, as Chaplin did. And now, having done it, I'd think twice before attempting it again. Making 'Infinity' was rough, and I barely got through it."
After he graduated from high school in 1980, Broderick auditioned for Uta Hagen at Herbert Berghof's H.B. Studio in New York City. He was accepted, and that year he made his theater debut in an Off-Broadway production of Horton Foote's "On Valentine's Day," playing opposite his father.
"I was terrified and wasn't very good. It was my first play, and I had trouble acting with my father--I couldn't get past the fact that my father was yelling at me in this Southern accent," he says.
Broderick must have been better than he remembers because things happened fast for him after that. In 1981 he was cast in Harvey Fierstein's "Torch Song Trilogy," and the year after that his career really took off.
"In 1982 I did Neil Simon's 'Brighton Beach Memoirs' on Broadway, and when it was opening, my first movie, 'Max Dugan Returns,' came out," he recalls. "That film wasn't too successful, but then 'WarGames,' which was successful, came out right when I won the Tony for 'Brighton Beach' in 1983.
"One would assume I look back on this as a great time, but this was all happening around the time my father died, so mostly it was a terrible time for me," he says softly. "I was very close to my father, and I found out he was dying the night of the first preview of 'Torch Song Trilogy.' Then when I was shooting 'WarGames' and 'Max Dugan Returns' in L.A., I was flying back weekends to be with him.
I guess I dealt with his death by staying busy, but I don't know. . . . Would it have been better not to work and to have been home all the time? I hoped he'd like seeing that his son was going to make a living, and he was very excited about 'Brighton.' This sounds like a movie, but he managed to live until I had the first reading of the play and called him from L.A. and told him it had gone well. He died the next night (Nov. 1, 1982).
"I don't know how it changed me, losing him. I've thought about that a lot, and I think it made me shut down for a long time. A big part of my life was just not dealt with because I couldn't deal with it, and it took a couple of years for me to even admit what had happened and get upset about it. It's funny what time does, though. It's been 12 years since my father died, and you kind of get over it even without knowing you are. It just sort of fades away, which is sad."
Broderick completed 10 films in the next eight years, all of which were successful enough to keep him in the game. His stock went up considerably in 1986 with the release of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," and he got the co-star of his life in 1990 when he was cast opposite Marlon Brando in the Andrew Bergman comedy "The Freshman."
"When I met Marlon Brando, I was pretty shaken up for a while, but I got over that and just grew to adore him. He was great," says Broderick, who turned in what many consider the best performance of his career in that film.
Broderick made "The Freshman" after a serious automobile accident in Ireland in 1987. He suffered a severely broken leg and other injuries when the car he was driving collided with another, killing its two occupants. Broderick was charged with manslaughter and reckless driving but was cleared of both.
"I feel more like an adult now," he says, reflecting on how the accident affected him. "Obviously, it was extremely difficult coming to grips with what happened, but in time I felt better about that terrible experience. I went to a therapist, and he helped. Unfortunately, my therapist died of cancer about a year after the accident.
"I've experienced a lot of death," he adds, "but experiencing it doesn't make you any more comfortable with it. I wish I had some holy, accepting attitude about it, but I don't--I just wish it didn't happen. Yes, you get over it and move on, but you're not the same and they're not there. They're really not there."
O ne would assume that trau matic experiences of this sort are made doubly difficult by being in the public eye, however, Broderick appears to have made peace with the vagaries of life as a public figure. "Fame has a life of its own that has little to do with the person himself: We're like fictional characters that get into peoples' consciousness, and I don't see that as good or bad. That's just the way it is.
"People have been staring at me when I'm in public for about 10 years and I've learned to tune it out, but I have no idea how it's affected my personality. At first it was exciting, then for a while it pissed me off and I was nasty to people, and now I'm a blank--I'm polite but I don't connect to anybody. It's ironic, because when people approach me, they usually want to tell me they like my work, and that's exactly what you want. But something inside shuts down that prevents you from being engaged by those encounters.
"People who don't know me often assume I have a swollen head, and I find myself endlessly trying to prove I'm normal. The most widely held misconception about famous actors is that they're all in love with themselves--lots of actors are extremely self-conscious. My girlfriend (actress Sarah Jessica Parker) goes to the gym and comes home moaning that she's out of shape, and she has a beautiful body."
Speaking of Parker, how come she keeps talking to the media about her struggle to get the actor to marry her?
"I love it when she does that," he says wryly. "I don't know why she does that--want to call her? It's become a shtick almost. My love life is fine, but I'm not gonna blab about it. I'll leave that to Sarah."
In parting, one asks Broderick what he feels is the most rewarding part of all the work with which he is currently deluged. What's the payoff?
"There's a rush from being the new guy, which is what happened for me in '82 with 'Brighton Beach,' " he replies after a long, thoughtful pause. "I loved the part; I felt fully used and could sense myself flying into something. I'd get huge laughs and big applause--I just felt great. But after you've done this work for a while, you have to find your fun in a different place because you're no longer anybody's 'discovery' and you're probably gonna get your fair share of negative criticism.
"You have to love the work itself, and I do--it's my life really," he says. "I can remember the first play I did when I was 15. Nervous as I was onstage, I could feel I belonged there. This isn't to say I'm the best actor in the world, but I do know that I'm an actor."

Thanks to groups like Project Veritas and WikiLeaks, we have a pretty clear picture of what Democrat operatives think – in private, of course – of blacks and other minorities. They don’t care about them as people. They simply need them as voters. And they know what attracts them the most – offer them “free” stuff.
Once these Democrats are in office – thanks in large part to hoodwinked minority voters – they end up not following through with their promises. Things actually get worse for minorities, and racial tension increases.
Thankfully, not every minority voter has fallen for the political platitudes of Democrats. But that also makes things a little harder for the Democrats. According to the President, the black vote isn’t as “solid” as it needs to be.
“Now I have a favor for you. And that is that I have 7 days to determine whether I have an outstanding candidate in my Secretary of State and who has pledged and committed to continue the progress we’ve made on jobs, and making sure kids can go to college, and early childhood education, and healthcare, or we’ve got somebody whose only agenda is to reverse everything that I’ve done over the last 8 years. To reverse everything that Michelle has done over the last 8 years. And I need you and everybody who is listening to make it their sole focus over the next 7 days that every single person is out there voting.
“I’m going to be honest with you right now, because we track, we’ve got early voting, we’ve got all kinds of metrics to see what’s going on, and right now, the Latino vote is up. The overall vote is up. But the African-American vote right now is not as solid as it needs to be.

There are not many things that do not go with ranch dressing. For many kids (and some grown-ups), it makes eating vegetables possible. So why settle for a preservative-laden store-bought version when it is so easy to make your own? Those versions can contain up to 16 grams of fat per serving!
Tell your family that you love them and that you accept that, yes, sometimes a bit of ranch does help the vegetables go down. Then make them this healthy homemade ranch dressing. It's delicious and pretty harmless-- therefore its an 80!
Whisk together all ingredients in a large glass container. Refrigerate until serving. Will keep for ~ 1 week sealed in refrigerator.
This looks awesome! I love ranch, but don't love all the calories.
What a wonderful recipe. Thanks so much for sharing!

What is champagne vinegar? Would it be in a specialty grocery store? Found your blog via PW - looking forward to checking it out.
I found champagne vinegar at my very basic Albertson's store.
I love this idea. No more bottled dressings!

This easy coleslaw recipe can be made in fifteen minutes! My husband loves eating coleslaw as a side dish with chicken tenders, fish and most sandwiches. I think it’s his German heritage that has caused him to love pretty much any cabbage recipe I’ve heard of. He actually whipped up a small batch of this coleslaw recipe.
Neither of us had made coleslaw, but we had this easy recipe on hand and we cut it in half to see how it would turn out. It was easy and delicious! The most difficult part was slicing the cabbage. We only needed half of a medium head of cabbage, so he just started cutting thin strips of cabbage with a large knife like this. He quickly figured out how to make the size of the pieces that he wanted to eat. He did the same thing with the other vegetables. If you don’t know how to shred or chop vegetables don’t worry about it, just be safe with the knife by always cutting away from yourself and keep your fingers out of the way! Cut pieces that you think you would enjoy. I’ve also noticed that the more he’s chopped vegetables the better he has gotten!
A couple more classic side dishes that our family really enjoys are this Farmhouse Potato Salad and Easy Potluck Pasta Salad. Cheers to great side dishes like these!
My husband was really glad that he gave this recipe a try and he recommends it to anyone!

Combine cabbage, carrot, pepper and salt.
In saucepan combine the remaining ingredients and boil together for 1 minute.
Cool, then pour over cabbage and stir together. Store in the refrigerator.

Welcome to the July Goddess Times, a place of sharing in these transformational times, honouring the earth and the sacred feminine during our journey towards unity. The old ways of separation do not work in the new world and as we move towards inner wholeness we are now coming together both within and without.
May you enjoy the bountifulness of nature during this beautiful month of July.
We are not alone as we walk through life; we have many guides who are always there to assist us even if at times it feels like there is no-one present. Our relatives and friends who have passed over watch over us and we also have many great beings of light, saints and wise people who have lived upon this planet and other planets who become our helpers too. There are gods and goddesses who bring their teachings as well and these are archetypes, they are ideas, thought forms and the energies of all of creation and they can become as real as any other guide. There are great beings who have lived upon this planet, they bring in their wisdom and come around us all so never doubt or think that you are not good enough to be helped by such highly evolved Masters.
We all have a team who works with us and some of them are here for the whole of our lives helping us as we are born and waiting for us at the moment of death for you never pass over without someone or even many to help you. If you have ever observed anyone in the process of dying you may have seen them turn and look in a certain direction and smile for the veils become thin at that time and people can see into the light and they can see who has come to help them pass over.
If only we could see who is around us we would know that we need never have any fear for we are always being helped but it takes trust to know that we are surrounded by such love. There are a few who are able to see with the physical eyes these beings of light but for the majority of us, including most mediums, it is a case of sensing who is there and recognising the signs of that person.
In the last couple of days Saint Hildegard has been with me, she was a great female saint, who lived in Germany in the 1100s and in fact she is the most amazing role model for women today who are struggling to find their own power, however she is a wonderful saint for both men and women to call upon. Her knowledge of so many things was vast, she created music and chants, she knew about healing herbs and plants, she even knew about the use of crystals, she would not be out of place in this modern world of ours.
“I come to speak about belief, about self belief for it takes great courage to truly believe in yourself and in the path you have chosen. Many doubt themselves so much and even those who have learnt through much struggle to believe, in their hearts they still do not completely accept what they truly feel.
I ask you now at this time when the world is changing and your lives are changing too to believe in yourself, to believe in the decisions which you make and to believe in the choices upon your path. There is the greatest joy in following your heart for your heart does know what it wants but as soon as you doubt just a little that doubt will grow and then you end up in confusion not knowing which way to go.
To have true self belief is one of the most wonderful things for how can you go the wrong way if you are doing what your soul wishes for you and this is what belief really means it is a true connection to your soul where you follow its dictates. Problems occur in life as teachings to let us know that we may need to look at ourselves and to heal ourselves but also to stop us from going the wrong way or in a way which is not in our best interests. When the wisdom of the soul is fully present then your life flows like a River and this is why you have come back into this incarnation to fulfill the work set by you from your own higher being.
I ask you to practice daily following your intuition even in very small things for it is by believing in the small things that you come to have full trust in the large things. How many times have you said, I knew I should have done things that way or I knew I shouldn’t have done that for we do know but it is only doubt which gets in the way. Every one of you reading this does know, you know what is right for you and you do know which way to go; trust in your heart and it will never let you down, never.
Believe in your dreams and believe in yourself and give to yourself the things which you know are best for you, don’t listen to others for how can they know as well as you do what you really need.
It is the most wonderful thing when you can honestly say, that is for me and that is what I am going to do and you feel strong and empowered and it is because your belief system is working very well.
I come to spread my light around many of you and you will feel this as my presence becomes stronger for I not only bring you a greater sense of belief in yourself I also encourage you to use all the things which you have to hand to help you live a healthy and harmonious life. Bring in music when ever you can for it heals in a way you can never even begin to imagine and it lifts the spirits which is a very precious thing.
Turn to the healing herbs and use them, use them freely in your food and turn to them as remedies to help you with your ailments for they contain great power within them, they are the gifts from mother Earth.
I spent my life understanding the ways to heal and how to create harmony and also how to speak my truth and I bring all of these gifts to you but I also spent time in deep inner contemplation and I ask that you remember to do this too for a few quiet moments can make a difference to each day. This can take any form you wish, it can be a favourite prayer or just a few moments spent visualising yourself in a beautiful place for both of these things will bring calmness to your mind and to your body. If your mind is calm your body will be too.
There is so much magic to be found in the little things of life, a sprinkling of herbs in the dish which you cook, a favourite song to listen to, a few quiet moments of reflection seeing yourself in a tranquil place.
I come now to spend time with you and even though my last incarnation was a long time ago in a life so different to this modern age my understanding of life is still the same and the things which people need are no different today as they were then. Imagine how your life would be if you believed in yourself with every single action, your life would then be just as you wished it for you would be following the dictates of your heart and when you follow your heart you are living in harmony with your true self and what more could you ask for than to find peace and union between the head and the heart”.
Flowers belong to another realm; they are the healers of the soul. Their cosmic blueprints are within the worlds of spirit. Each month I bring to you a flower which is relevant to the energies around us at the time. The flower for this month is a white marjoram flower. The flowers of the herb marjoram can come in pink or white and they are both glorious, they seed everywhere and there is nothing nicer than seeing an abundance of them in the summertime.
The colour of a flower is important and the pink brings love while the white brings a greater understanding of all of existence with the knowledge that we are not separate. White is the colour of God/goddess, it is the colour of unity.
This most beautiful of herbs is known as joy of the mountains so let it bring you joy when you need it and let it bring you the understanding that you are connected to everything. A dear friend of mine calls me Marji because of my name Margaret but she also knows that this is to do with the herb marjoram.
I often give flowers to people, flowers from my garden, I love to do this but some times I will include a sprig of marjoram just to let that person know that I am giving them a bit of myself and that they can rely on me if they need me and so I share this white marjoram with you and let you know that I share a bit of myself with you too. With this herb I give to you I also give you love from my heart.
We all need respite from the world, time away to sit and find some inner peace for the mind is always active and it is one of the hardest things to do to quieten it. To spend a few minutes each day in quiet contemplation visualising a beautiful place to be can indeed make a difference to your day. Any inner journey will help you to achieve some peace no matter where it is but there are many places you can visit in the mind, many beautiful places which will fill you with the essence of the land and recharge your batteries.
Come with me now deep inside where you have the potential to manifest all sorts of journeys within the mind and I will take you to a place of peace.
Come and sit in the garden of an abbey, the garden is filled with healing herbs and beautiful flowers. Your seat is an old carved wooden bench and just by you is a very old rose called Rosa Mundi, the meaning of its name is rose of the world. Its colour is a mixture of white and pink and it has the most glorious perfume.
As you sit within this place of peace inhaling the herbs and the beautiful rose next to you there comes a sound from the Abbey of monks chanting, such glorious chanting, it fills you with its healing tones. There is nothing for you to think about here, no problems to work out, no thoughts of things which you need to do only a quiet emptiness of peace. As you sit there the emanations from the herbs, the rose and the sounds fill you completely and you feel your whole self become very quiet and still within, it is as though the world has stopped and indeed it has for you are here in a moment of time held within the healing vibrations of an inner journey of peace.

It’s May. How did that happen? It feels like yesterday we were launching our New Year program, and now daffodils are blooming. But hey, no complaining here! Katie and Anna are in Minnesota, where winter was acting like a lingering house guest. I’m in San Francisco (where weather is truly one of the great unsolved mysteries), and apparently May is “tropical heat wave” month, so really, we’re happy to welcome May.
Even those lambs are thrilled it’s Spring.
The foundation of Prescribe Nutrition is taking a look at the whole picture in order to achieve health and balance. Food is where we start – we must recognize what we put into our bodies becomes our bodies. Do we need to dig deeper than food? Sure, sometimes. And that’s where we take a look at the whole picture – lifestyle, emotions, activity, environment…the list goes on. All of these things can and do play a huge role in overall well-being. For example, one can make many positive changes to their diet., however, eating like a real angel, yet avoiding issues such as happiness, stress or even a big problem like toxicity, it can still make you feel off.This is where the whole picture comes in. It’s something we like to call the sum of all goods.

An Australian technology entrepreneur is among a handful of investors who have forked out $100 million to fund a local business that will take on the big banks.
Tyro Payments Limited, an Australian Eftpos provider that obtained a banking licence in August, has raised $100 million from Tiger Global Management in New York, TDM Asset Management in Sydney and Australian technology entrepreneur Mike Cannon-Brookes to fund the next stage of its ambitious growth strategy.
The group will look to compete with the big four banks in the SME lending space and is eager to leverage data from more than 14,000 businesses in Australia, for which it processes over $8 billion annually in transactions through its internally developed cloud-based platform.
In August this year, Tyro became the first Australian technology company to be granted a banking licence by APRA, allowing it to accept deposits and to advance money to Australian businesses.
Tyro CEO Jost Stollmann said the $100 million capital injection from three leading global investors combined with Tyro’s in-house cloud-based banking platform sets Tyro up well for the next stage of growth.
“Tyro is coming together with Australia’s 2.1 million small and medium-sized businesses, software and fintech companies to build a new ecosystem that is disrupting the established banks by offering better products and experiences,” Mr Stollmann said.
As part of the new funding, experienced retail businesswoman Catherine Harris will join Tyro as an independent board director from 17 December 2015. Ms Harris is an accomplished director with extensive retail experience as chair of Australia’s largest independent produce retailer, Harris Farm Markets.
She is also a commissioner of the Australian Rugby League, and director of The National Gallery of Australia, The Australian Ballet and the UNSW Australia Business School.
Tyro chairman Kerry Roxburgh welcomed Ms Harris’s appointment, saying she would bring new skills and perspectives to the board.
“Catherine Harris is one of Australia’s most astute business figures, who will bring enormous insight into the dynamics that drive a successful, retail business,” Mr Roxburgh said.
Established 12 years ago, Tyro has built up a team of 150 software engineers to develop and launch new banking products.
During the 2015 financial year, Tyro increased its gross revenue by 38 per cent, and added 94 new staff, taking its total staff count to 221. In addition, the group opened the Tyro Fintech Hub where like-minded entrepreneurs can interact and co-develop open application programming interfaces (APIs).

Huntley Brown: "A calling deeper than just music"
I am excited to announce the release of my newest CD: Hymns My Mother Taught Me.
This project holds a special place in my heart. As many of you know my mother has entered a new season of life as she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s a few years. No doubt, this has been difficult, but through the journey, I have found music to be very cathartic.
On my last visit to Jamaica, my mother did not recognize me at first, you can only imagine what that did to my heart. The next day I played a few songs for her plus many hymns. To my amazement it was like someone had flipped a switch and mom recognized me again.
“Hymns My Mother Taught Me” is a multifaceted project. On one end, it is a tribute to the wisdom of my mother and her grounded faith. On the other, it is a CD of encouragement. Originally I planned this CD as a gift for mom, but with time, I decided to share it with everyone because I know many families are dealing with the same challenge too.
My prayer is that these hymns will encourage everyone who listens. I am known for a few piano gymnastics on my previous CD but this one is just simple, quiet and reflective for all those who love the old hymns. Its a reminder that though our seasons may change, the goodness of our God remains the same. This CD has been a blessing to me and I pray it is the same for you.
Additionally, you can check out my concert schedule to see if I will be ministering in a city near you soon. I’ll be sure to feature a few songs from this latest CD. Here is a sample of the first song. On the CD its called Londonderry Air but most people know it as Danny Boy.
Cd’s are $10 plus $2.00 for shipping and handling. God bless you richly. Thanks again for all your prayers and support. Look for a special announcement coming soon from our daughter Natalie about her new book 52 cups of coffee. Its truly one incredible book and will make a great Christmas present.


text: African countries along the Great Rift Valley are among areas of the world where excess fluoride in water sources is a major public health problem. In this work, the removal of fluoride (F) from water solutions using a ferric poly-mineral (FPM) from Kenya was therefore studied using batch adsorption experiments. The effect of change in solution pH, temperature, initial concentration of F, mass of FPM, contact time and presence of various competing ions on F adsorption onto FPM was evaluated. Adsorption isotherms were then applied to the adsorption data to characterize and establish the adsorption capacity of the mineral. The adsorption of F onto FPM was found to be a fast process and, at 1000 mg/L initial F concentration at pH 3.32 and 293 K and using 0.2 g/mL adsorbent dosage, over 90% F removal from solution could be achieved in 30 min. Based on Giles system of classification of adsorption isotherms, F adsorption isotherm conformed to L4 Langmuir-type isotherms. This indicated that FPM is composed of a heterogeneous surface consisting of sites which, during adsorption, filled-up with F ions in succession. The adsorption data also correlated to Langmuir and Freundlich models indicating that F adsorption onto FPM was a mixed process involving chemisorption onto surface sites followed by gradual intra-particle penetration of F into mesoporous structure of the mineral. High mean Langmuir adsorption capacity of 10.8 mg/g, indicate that the mineral could be of use as an inexpensive substrate for the removal of F from aqueous streams.

But never fear! I’ve decided to use this opportunity to do something that I’ve been meaning to do for a ever since I made the move over to ScienceBlogs: Move a lot of what I like to call Classic Insolence from the old blog over to the new blog, starting with some cancer-related posts tomorrow. These posts, lovingly chosen by me, will be appearing at a rate of two to five per day. (Heck, the blog will be more active in my absence than it usually is when I’m here.) A lot of this stuff is pretty old (a year and a half is ancient in blogging, you know); so I’m hoping that this will be the first time that a significant proportion of my readers will have seen this material.
I’m also interested in seeing what my readers think of these posts now. Consequently, I’ll be checking in every so often to see what’s going on, but certainly nowhere near as often as usual. Another consequence of this is that it may take me up to a day or more to approve comments that get caught in the spam filter or to respond to e-mails.
I’m sure that I’ll also probably post the occasional dispatch from the road, Internet access and time allowing (yes, it’s an addiction), but for the most part I plan on resting and recharging, only posting as the mood strikes me.
I should be back to blogging regularly by August 31 or September 1.

The Greek and Turkish air forces are two of NATO’s strongest and most experienced. The chronic antagonism between the two neighboring states has meant that their pilots have received significant training as they have for decades often engaged in dogfights over the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas. Unlike planned exercises by NATO members, however, these dogfights have been deadly in the past and even risked a larger military showdown on several occasions.
The following detailed report will break down the inventory of the rival-but-allied air forces for 2012. This will also reveal that equilibrium of power has been established; the two countries have, both in quantitative and qualitative terms, reached an equal projection of air power, something that partly depends on the threat perceptions military planners have regarding different fronts. This dynamic is expected to remain as it is, at least for the mid-term, though pending acquisitions by Turkey could affect the balance in future. As with the case of India and Pakistan, an unwritten rule of preserving a balance of power has been set out by Western politicians and thus followed by industrial producers in Western countries.
All data presented below derives from official information gathered from the Greek and Turkish air fleet inventories, available in the archives of their respective military staffs and defense ministries.
Today, the Greek and Turkish air forces are considered to be among the best-trained and best-equipped in the world, along with (or after) those of the US, UK, Russia, Israel, France, China, India, Australia and South Korea.

The precocious teenager fulfilled a lifetime ambition to pull on the famous black and white jersey of Newcastle United but the dream turned into a nightmare under Kenny Dalglishs repressive regime. Unable to win a place in the side, Pottery Banks finest then committed the ultimate Geordie sin and defected to Sunderland. As the Black Cats record signing, he captured the hearts of the Mackem faithful before shattering it by donning a controversial t-shirt undermining his new club. After being exiled to a six year stretch at Fulham the popular Geordie returned to his old stomping ground to round up a memorable playing career at St JamesPark.
Controversy followed Clark into coaching and management. A brief spell at Norwich; a record breaking 43 game unbeaten run at Huddersfield; a repressive stint at Birmingham and a doomed tenure at Blackpool, all par for the course. Scottish Premier League outfit, Kilmarnock, has offered a way back into management and Clark now embarks on a new challenge.His story is explosive, provocative and hilarious in equal measures, revealing how an emotional, cheeky chappie with a volatile temper evolved into one of footballs most respected and promising young managers.

Be gentle with yourself. Realize that you’re only human and that humans have reactions that do not seem logical at times. Be aware of any harsh judgments you are making about your reactions or the reactions of others around you. Each person faces grief and trauma in his or her own way and each person does the best that they can do with it given their circumstances.
Expect to feel anger, it is inevitable. You may feel anger at life, anger at everyone, anger at God, or even anger at the person that was lost (this can create a lot of guilt, but is a very common reaction).
Try to keep your daily activities as normal as the situation allows. Try to keep usual schedules for sleep, eating, and daily rituals.
Try not to make major decisions, like deciding to move across the country or changing jobs/careers. It is often very hard to think clearly following a loss or trauma and big decisions require clear thinking.
If looking at the future or even the next week seems overwhelming, consider structuring your days so that you focus on chunks or portions of each day.
While making decisions at a difficult time is not easy, it may also give you a sense of control . If you are inclined to let others take over and make decisions for you, ask yourself if the other person's choice/decision is really what you want and truly your best option (or consider delaying a decision until a time you can think about it more clearly).
Talking to someone can be very helpful in the healing process. Talk to people you know care about you (and people do care). If it’s difficult for you to do that, consider reaching out to a psychologist or other mental health professional for assistance.
You may be tempted to numb the pain by misusing drugs or alcohol. Of course, drugs or alcohol typically will result in further complicating your life. To make matters worse, alcohol acts as a depressant. While it can seem as if alcohol and drugs numb the pain, their use can act to just prolong your pain by stopping the needed flow of feelings.
Try to add pleasurable activities into each day. It may be something very small, like taking a bubble bath or sitting outside and relaxing, or it could be something a bit bigger, like taking a weekend to travel. But try to make sure that you do nice things for yourself (encourage yourself to do so even at times when you might feel that you don’t want to do anything).
Loss often leads us to have feelings of guilt – that is a universal reaction. But try to remind yourself that although many people feel guilt following a loss, the guilt is often misplaced and not entirely rational.
You may read or hear that there is some "limit" on grieving, such as that "normal" grief lasts one year. This is not necessarily true. Grief (even normal grief) is a long process that has many levels and has no single definition (nor time period). It may help to ask yourself questions such as "Is my grief significantly interfering in my life’s activities?" or "Is my grief becoming my life?" or "Has my grief become so distressing to me that I have difficulty getting through the day?"
Do not judge yourself by others. People react different and handle situations in unique ways. Try not to compare your reactions to those of others. What makes one person feel better or brings you peace may not seem sensible or appropriate to another person.
Use any tools you believe will help you in coping with the after effects of your trauma or loss. That could be prayer, medication, writing in a journal, staying busy, exercising, or talking to family or friends.
Give yourself permission to consult a mental health professional. Realize that acknowledging to yourself that you need professional assistance when you do is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of maturity and wisdom.

The terms "dominant" and "recessive" imply some competitive interaction between alleles over which one will control the phenotype. This is not the case, however. Alleles do not interact in the nucleus. Instead, both alleles are expressed (in most cases), and the phenotype reflects the result. How, then, can one allele determine the phenotype to the exclusion of another?
Alleles coding for defective protein can act in a dominant manner in allele is present other situations, however. If the resulting protein is not properly regulated by other cell components, it may perform actions that harm the cell. This is called a toxic-gain-of-function mutation. Huntington's disease is thought to be due to a toxic-gain-of function mutation, although it is not yet clear what the exact toxic mechanism is.
A defective protein can also have a dominant effect if its absence cannot be compensated for by the other functioning allele (this is called a dominant negative effect). This may occur when half the normal protein level is insufficient for normal function (a condition called haploin-sufficiency), or when the protein forms part of a multiprotein complex, which is therefore defective in its entirety. Examples include a variety of human collagen-structure disorders. Collagen is the most abundant and important structural protein in the body, and is critical for bone formation and growth. Defects in one of the subunits cause a variety of dominant disorders termed "osteogenesis imperfecta."

We all want to be loved and accepted by the people around us. Most people would agree that the feeling of rejection is the absolute worst. When we’re rejected, we often feel hurt, angry and a bit depressed. But when someone loves you, you feel overwhelmingly happy and your heart swells with joy. This is how you feel when a human loves you. So how would you feel if you knew that Allah loves you? No words could ever describe that feeling.
If you’re looking for acceptance amongst the people, first seek the love and acceptance of Allah.
Imagine being loved by Jibraeel and the other Angels. Imagine being able to meet them in Jannah.
Imagine being loved by Allah and being able to see Him in Jannah.
Whose opinion of me matters the most: Allah or the creation of Allah?
Whose Judgement of me is the most important?
Who can enter me into Paradise?
Who can save me from the Hellfire?
Therefore, who should I be trying to please?
To summarise, if you want the people to accept you, become a beloved servant of Allah, seek His love and strive to please Him, even if it makes the people unhappy. Allah will grant you acceptance in the heavens and the earth.

November has seen in increase in snake sightings and callouts for our Brisbane and Gold Coast snake catchers.
Carpet python sightings while still a commonly encountered snake in November are starting to be matched by a number of other local snake species. This has meant a reduced amount of scrambling around in roof spaces and climbing up and down ladders for our snake catchers!
Common tree snakes are still showing up regularly with one individual playing hide and seek inside the mechanism of a Lazy Boy recliner chair in a South Brisbane property. After trying to get at the snake for half an hour the snake catcher lost site of the snake – it was found soon after lying motionless in the runners of a nearby sliding door attempting to look inconspicuous..
Red-bellied Black snakes have been on the increase with a number found in and around the southern brisbane suburb of Beenleigh. One individual found its way onto a vast, perfectly manicured lawn containing just one hiding place – a single palm tree. This made the snake catchers search and recovery job much easy than normal!
While still not being sighted in large numbers eastern brown snakes and yellow-faced whip snakes have still been finding their way into residential properties on both the north and south sides of Brisbane. Keelbacks, much like last month, have been turning up but in modest numbers mainly around the southern suburbs.
With the hot humid weather of late it is a good time to ensure you are not encouraging snakes to stick around on your property. This can be done by ensuring any trees overhanging your roof are cut back, security screens on your doors are kept shut and your yard is clean and clear of debris that could provide shelter to a passing snake.
Thanks for reading and have a happy and safe christmas and new years period!
