Singapore sent two teams of 14 representatives to take part in the 16th World Kendo Championships which were held in Tokyo from 29th to the 31st of May 2015.
Our Ladies' team came away Top 8 in the world, losing to the dominant Japanese super team. For their efforts, Stella Wong clinched our second ever 'Best Fighting Spirit Award' since 2003.
Our Men's team missed the target of Top 8, failing to defeat Mexico, but allowing us a consolation Top 16 in the world.
The Team would like to thank everyone who has supported us along the way. First of all, to Coach Ishihara sensei - for providing the long-term plan and carrying it through these past years. To all our assistant coaches, Wada, Okamoto and Imagawa senseis, as well as all the many coaching staff and varied supporters who have helped us in our many trainings, shiai and camps. Damian, Takamori, Peter and Kubo senseis, and Kaji san, Kaori Klismith, Mr & Mrs Funamori, as well as Daphne, Terry, Joyce, Yixin and Yuyuan; we understand the sacrifices you made just to be there, and we are ever so very grateful for it. To Isono, Kimura and Tanaka senseis, thank you for training with the WKC team on Saturdays, and also for your token of support.
Thank you to our managers, Inoue sensei, Renata and Eugene. Your organization and care for us allowed us to focus on what we were there to do. We sincerely appreciate the hard work you put in.
Special thanks goes out to our "Kendo Mama", Shohtoku san, who has been there since Day One, and has never left our side even when she was sick. We would not be where we are were it not for you.
We would like to thank everyone who supported us by buying our WKC merchandise, and also from the many individuals who gifted us with donations in cash and kind. Thank you also, to the Singapore OB/OG who hosted us to a heart-warming dinner, and to everyone who took the time, effort and money to go to the Nippon Budokan and cheer for us there. There are too many of you to name, but your presence uplifted our spirits and made us fight harder.
Our thanks also goes out to Keio University, Tokyo Gakugei University, and Shiozawa Company, for hosting us and allowing us to train and shiai with you. The level of Kendo we saw encouraged us to raise our own game.
We are committed to improving our Kendo and the level of Kendo in Singapore, and we look forward to your continued support of the next WKC team in three years time in Incheon, Korea.

My Dad would always ask this question, knowing darn well what the answer was before he even asked it. Chris and I hadn’t talked in a long while.
And that, in and of itself, was extremely unusual. There was a period of time when Chris and I would have called each other three or four times throughout the day to share a joke, tell a story, or just chat. Chris Beatty and I had been the best of friends for many years. The type of friends who were completely inseparable. We spent nearly every night we could hanging out, going to country concerts, and commiserating over our inability to talk to women. Now, it had been months since I had even heard from Chris. We let a disagreement get the best of us, and now it was showing our worst.
“You know, you really should call him. Life’s too short,” my Dad would always say. I had no idea at that time just how short life could truly be.
But I was stubborn and I was afraid to admit that I had made a terrible mistake and sinned against my fellow man—and not just any fellow man. My best friend. I was too arrogant to pick up the phone and call him. I let anger consume me for no reason other than haughty self-righteousness, and it was tearing my heart to pieces. I was too ego-conscious to drive over to his house and say I was sorry. I was too focused on myself to focus on God and what He wanted me to do to repair this friendship. And I let self blind me to everything that was important in life.
Even in the immediate aftermath of my Dad’s death, I had people telling me that my God could take horrible situations and make something good out of them. That even in the midst of tremendous, lifelong heartache, God can create brightness. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, God would be able to take this pain and bring His people closer together.
Chris: I was driving home the night I got the call. In her most comforting, yet emptied and wounded tone, my mom asked me if I could pull off to the side of the road because she had something ‘very important’ to tell me. This was a tone in which I have never heard from my mom’s voice, so I ‘pulled off’ the highway and prepared myself for the coming words that would change my life, forever.
For those of you that don’t know, Ty and I met each other in Mrs. Hopkin’s 2nd grade class at Fairfield North Elementary. Since 9th grade, we have been best friends, and often mistaken for lovers by many. I guess going out with your buddy for ice-cream on a Friday night might’ve been the wrong play when trying to pick up girls. Ty and I share countless memories, many of which his dad played a part in.
Of all the memories, my personal favorite was when Ty and I started a business one summer, called Beatty & Bradshaw Landscaping. Scotty let me use his truck to pull out all the stumps and bushes from the ground. He also let us use his chainsaw, flame thrower, pressure washer, and Cub Cadet riding mower! I forgot to mention, all his tools were brand name and looked legit, which in turn, made us feel like real men.
*Side note: During our 2 years as business owners, Beatty & Bradshaw Landscaping had 1 client and 2 total invoices. We later liquidized all assets of the company and took up poker instead. That, too, was a failed venture.
Admittingly, I am a prideful person. Prideful to the point in which I squandered a lifelong friendship with Ty over something trivial. During our 2-year sabbatical from each other, a lot happened in our lives. We got real jobs; we each bought houses; I got married. In planning my wedding, there were some important questions…location, church, venue, colors, wedding party, honeymoon, etc. Up until that point, I had one obvious choice as my best man. Despite desperate attempts from my future wife and family to bring us back together, my pride restricted my ability to pick up the phone and make things right with Ty. As the wedding planning proceeded, Ty was not my best man. He nor his family were invited to celebrate the best day of my life. That decision was a life lesson that I learned the hard way.
Anxiously dialing Ty’s number, a number I had dialed so many times before, a calmness and a sense of compassion that only God can give someone filled my entire body. I heard Ty’s voice, but it was just his voicemail. I have no recollection of what I said, but in my most sympathetic tone, I asked him to call me.
It was the next day, I was about to walk into my office, and I saw those 7 familiar numbers pop up on my phone that I had answered so many times before. I can’t recall what Ty even said to me, but it didn’t matter. Differences aside, I knew this was the moment that Ty needed his brother. I cancelled all my meetings and raced to his house, which I realized was the same yard where we completed our 2 landscaping jobs at Beatty & Bradshaw Landscaping. Talk about poetic justice.
I remember apprehensively walking up to his door and thinking about what I wanted to say and how I was going to say it. How do you approach someone who you’ve known since you were 7, yet completely shut out of your life for the past 2 years, who just tragically lost his father?
God has a great way of working things out for you when you put your trust in Him. I walked inside and Ty greeted me with the most exposed, regretful, and heartbroken hug I’ve ever received. I spent so much time rehearsing what I would say and how I would apologize. Instead, we hugged each other and sobbed in each other’s arms for what seemed like an hour. It was at that point that every chain and shackle had been lifted off both of our stubborn hearts.
My greatest life lessons have always been learned the hard way, and this was no exception. It took a tragedy to bring my brother and I back together. Since that day, Ty and I have picked up where we left off; going to Red’s games, eating at Buffalo Joe’s and ordering extra blue cheese, singing every word to “We Rode in Trucks,” in Scotty’s GMC Silverado, and yes, still going out for Graeter’s black raspberry chip ice cream. In fact, we recently checked off a life-long bucket list item the other night when we went to go see Garth Brooks in concert. It was such an honor to share that experience together because we both had that same dream since we were 7 years old.
Pride blurred my vision, causing me to view myself in a distorted reality. Pride shields sin as strength and steadfast. I am so thankful that my God forgives me for my transgressions. If someone tells you that a burnt bridge will never be built again, or forgiveness isn’t possible, I can tell you differently, in ways not a lot of people can. While Ty and I will never get those 2 years back, I’m excited to open new chapters where I can be a part of the memorable moments in his life.
I know Scotty is smiling up there seeing his two boys back in action again.
Thanks, Scotty. I love you, man. I’ll thank you again in person one day, but until then, Seeya Bub.
Ty: Dad, Your death created a lot of heartache in my life that still continues today. But I’m also amazed how God was able to take this horrible situation and shine a light in other areas. I know that you are happy looking down and seeing Chris and I have mended our friendship. If it was possible, I think we’ve become even better friends than we ever were, because we know what truly matters—and Dad, you taught us that. You taught us that forgiveness isn’t an option, and that love for your fellow man is what matters at the end of this life. Chris and I are both able to cherish the example you set for what it means to be a friend to someone, and we are thankful that you are still watching over us, at times laughing with us and other times at our stupidity. I have no doubt that God has his hand over our friendship, and I have no doubt that you are there right next to Him, watching along and smiling at your boys. We miss you terribly, Dad, but we will see you again soon when we can all laugh together forever and ever. Until then, seeya Bub.

Mount Vesuvius: Does the Past Foretell the Future?
Does the past foretell the future? Experts hope not. Almost four thousand years ago, a larger eruption (called the Avelino eruption) killed thousands and made the area a desert for centuries. Dozen of eruptions have occurred since but another four thousand victims were killed in the particularly lethal 1631 eruption.
Today, Mount Vesuvius is a ticking time bomb with another eruption imminent. The volcano looms above Naples and the surrounding areas with its 600,000 residents in the nine mile “red zone.” The Italian government monitors the activity twenty-four/seven. Emergency evacuation plans would take 72 hours to empty the red-zoned area.
Have you been watching the news about the Icelandic volcano roughly pronounce Bardabundka? The last time that one let loose, in 1783-84, 6 million died in Europe, largely of starvation, and the Mississippi was frozen in New Orleans. The only “good” thing about a similar event now is that it might give us a few years’ breathing room in global warming.

Former North Melbourne midfielder Sam Gibson will make his debut for Adelaide tonight as the Crows face a bigger-than-expected test against the in-form Western Bulldogs.
Adelaide have been hit hard by injury for tonight’s home game against the Western Bulldogs, with skipper Taylor Walker, key midfielder Matt Crouch, reliable backman Luke Brown and big-marking forward Mitch McGovern all missing from the team that fell just short in last weekend’s Showdown.
Draftees Darcy Fogarty and Lachlan Murphy have been brought into the team along with defender Kyle Hartigan.
Thirty-one-year-old Gibson, who has a reputation as a tagger, might get a run-with role against key Bulldog Jack Macrae, who has been in stunning form this season.
Adelaide coach Don Pyke has been reluctant to use a tagger in his three seasons in charge of the Crows, but indicated earlier this week that he’s pondering using one on Macrae in the Adelaide Oval encounter.
The Bulldogs, who have won their past three matches against weak opposition, look stronger for the inclusions of skipper Easton Wood and talls Jackson Trengove and Jordan Roughead.
Port Adelaide is unchanged for its second match in China on Saturday, with Jared Polec expected to play despite flying to Shanghai later than the rest of the team due to a virus.
Their opponent, the Gold Coast Suns, made one change to their team, with speedy rookie Jacob Heron replacing the suspended Sam Day.
In other matches, Sydney has received a huge double boost, with spearhead Lance Franklin and midfield star Dan Hannebery back for Saturday night’s clash with Fremantle.
The Dockers welcome back two big names from injury – forward Michael Walters and running defender Nathan Wilson.
But the biggest selection shock for the SCG clash was Franklin’s earlier-than-expected return.
“I ruled him out on Monday – that’s how unusual the injury was,” said Swans coach John Longmire.
“But he had a scan again on Tuesday and it surprisingly showed that it was getting better really quickly and again on Wednesday.
“It then got better and better during the course of the next couple of days to the point that he was able to train.
Collingwood, Melbourne and Carlton will all welcome back their captains from injury.
Magpies skipper Scott Pendlebury returns to take on struggling St Kilda, having missed one game with a leg problem, while clever forward Alex Fasolo comes in for his first senior match since late 2017.
The Saints have handed a senior debut to Bailey Rice, the son of former Saints and Blues star Dean Rice.
But forward Blake Acres is set to miss a month with a groin problem.
Key defender Jake Carlisle is out for St Kilda after failing to recover from concussion.
Blues skipper Marc Murphy will take on Melbourne on Sunday having recovered from a foot injury which had sidelined him since mid-April.
The Demons also welcome back co-captain Jack Viney, who has not played at the top level since late 2017 due to a serious foot injury.
West Coast have been strengthened by the return of Nic Naitanui and Jeremy McGovern from suspension and injury respectively for Sunday’s top-of-the-table clash with Richmond.
Greater Western Sydney’s horror run with injury has continued, with co-captain Phil Davis (concussion) ruled out of Saturday’s match against North Melbourne in Hobart along with Matt de Boer (hamstring).
Veteran defender Tim Mohr and teenager Harry Perryman return for the Giants to take on an unchanged Kangaroos line-up.
Struggling Essendon have made five changes for Saturday’s clash with Geelong, who get spearhead Tom Hawkins back from suspension.

BUTTER accommodates PRIVATE EVENTS for groups of 20 to 250. For more information please visit our website listed below.
Endroit authentique, qui a du charme.
Cuisine de qualité : ce n'est ni gastronomique ni exceptionnel mais agréable.
Eau et vin très chers.
Très bon service : diligent et sympathique.
On y vient plus pour l'ambiance typiquement new-yorkaise que pour la qualité des plats.
The meal was delicious! Wonderful Branzino!
The cheese plate was yummy!
Service was friendly and on the mark. If we lived in the city, it would be a go-to!
Food was amazing, as well as the drinks, atmosphere and service. We had a great server, her name was Jackie. She was knowledgeable regarding the menu and gave us great honest recommendations. We will definitely be back next time we’re in NY. The watermelon ice cubes and beignets were delicious.
Loved everything about this place! Service was fabulous & the food was delicious. We’ll be back!
The food was top notch! The service was very personal. They made us feel like we were the only ones dining there, even though it was a full house!
Will come back again, for sure!!
Food was good but not exceptional. Service very friendly! Got us out quickly for our Broadway show.
We had a 5pm reservation before a show. We were seated quickly, but It was 5:25pm before the sever arrived at the table (we were about to leave). I informed the server that we had a show at 7pm and he responded that “you still have time”. He gave us the specials and left again, without taking our drink order. He came back at 5:40pm to take our drink over and I told him that we needed to order our entire meal given that we had a show. He agreed. Our appetizer came out pretty quickly, but food didn’t arrive until 6:15pm. We asked for the check when the food arrived and had to eat quickly. The food was just okay, and very overpriced. The sauce on the Bronzino was so sweet it reminded me of lemon pie filling. I wouldn’t go back.
As a vegetarian, I appreciate that Butter always has something special for that diet. I had an amazing cauliflower lasagne and they adjusted the Nicoise salad on the prix fixe so I could have it without tuna. And very accommodating waitpeople as well.
The menu seems simple, but the food is is more complex than it sounds.
One of the best restaurants I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. Service was on point, restroom spotless, the food spectacular! I will be back!
Celebrated a 60th birthday. No better way than with good friends sharing great food!! Still thinking about the meal days later. Just fabulous!!
I'll admit we were a little worried when we were the only people in the restaurant for about a half hour - what did everyone know that we didn't?! But one taste of the brunch buffet put all our fears at ease. We were just too early for a Manhattan Sunday, I guess. Great selection of items - fresh and flavorful. Along with things you expect for brunch (eggs, bacon, sausage) there were many delightful surprises (hanger steak, gnocchi mac & cheese, shrimp & grits). The array of baked goods alone was amazing - scones, donuts, breads. We wondered if we'd feel like we got our money's worth at $40 per person, and we definitely did! Our only complaint is that, for being alone in the restaurant for as long as we were, our waiter seemed a little surly, like we had forced him to get up early. We didn't get much attention after he dropped off our cocktails.
Absolutely fantastic restaurant. It was fairly expensive but not egregiously so and was not any more then what I was expecting to pay. The atmosphere and service were top notch, but not surprisingly the food was the star of the show. The Gnocchi mac and cheese was to die for. The short rib I had was the best version of a short rib I have had - well cooked, well seasoned, and a good portion. Not a single dish went back with anything left on the plate.
Always fabulous and always go when in NYC. The food, cocktails and service is amazing. Thank you!
Very expensive for what it is. Food is good but not good value for the money.
Great food. Attentive service. Cool vibe. They missed a little on one of the plates but more than made up for it with everything else. Great place to eat pre-show.
This was my first trip to NYC and everyone I know said how amazing the restaurants there are. I am a huge fan of the show chopped and alex guarnaschelli so I knew I had to eat at Butter. I ordered a wedge salad (very average) and the cavatappi pasta that I could have made at home. With a bottle of champagne (it was a birthday celebration, which we wrote in reservations) Our server was very sweet and even recommended a few lounges. The broccoli was very good my friend ordered Mac n cheese gnocchi which was also very average. No mention of the birthday celebration was mentioned or acknowledged by the staff until we were walking out of the restaraunt. I was sadly disappointed for something I was so looking forward to.
We arrived half hour early, the receptionist was kind enough to sit us right away...nice.
We got seated at the far corner table that wobbles...i asked our waitress to assist us, she came back with a bunch of cloth napkins and started to shove them under the table to make it worst.... than at least 4 more people came to ASK....just to ask.... if it was fixed..I kept replying "no" but not ONE did anything about it.
I love the bread here always have, great touch, flavor and presentation ....now every time I come here I have to ask for more, because lately I've notice it has become a rule now, that is a one per customer.
Anyways it took 20 minutes and 4 different waitstaff to bring some, keep in mind the bill was over $388 without tip.
my $135 aged Tbone came out cold when I asked my Waitress Victoria she looked at me like if I had 2 heads and said NOTHING.
The look and feel is cozy and cool. The food and drinks are AMAZING! Highly recommended.
I went in expecting the best restaurant experience I’ve ever had and was not disappointed. 11/10, will be regaling people about this experience for years to come.
Way to go Alex and crew! High volume of people....but still great food and service.
Tobacco pork chop was amazing! And the tequila Manhattan!
I have been to Butter before and enjoyed the food and service during each visit. The waiters are polite and responsive and the food arrived in time enough for the group to enjoy it. We were able to hold a great conversation and get back to the office in time. I would recommend Butter to my friends, family, and business associates. Great job!
the space is gorgeous, and the high ceilings keep the noise bearable. the menus is sparse, and some of the items a bit quirky. Although I found my dish overseasoned, my dining partners did not. It is, however, expensive, and for the cost, I would hope for better service. The sprout salad was fun.
Nice spot with beautiful interior but food fell short of expectations for a restaurant of this caliber.
Price fix lunch is great bargain. Nurger and fries were delicious!!
Took my boyfriend here for his birthday and he really enjoyed himself. We went for lunch and both got the pre-fixe. The food was very good, maybe a little pricey, but it was worth it for his birthday. The service was good, and everyone was friendly. We would go back again for another special occasion.
Only hiccup in our experience were the bathrooms. Of the four on the lower level, one had no soap, one had hair conditioner, and another had a refillable bottle - so after going to the first two - I was unsure of what was in the refillable bottle!
The service was very good and the seating was very comfortable. However, we ordered a ribs special and while half of the ribs were fall-off-the-bone delicious, the other half were dried out and tough. Perhaps someone needed to pay a little more attention to detail in the plating?
Ate here for brunch before seeing a Broadway play. Probably one of the best brunches I have ever eaten - every single item was delicious. Service was excellent and will definitely be coming back for either lunch or dinner very soon!
I can not even put into words how amazing this meal was. I got a cocktail , a baked potato, grilled salmon and beignets. Sounds simple enough. But every single thing I was served was absolutely exquisite.
Such a cool place and really good, interesting food!
We expected a first class experience and were disappointed. Our server never told us his name. Made no effort to explain the menu. All of the food was served at a lukewarm temperature. Our dinner was $600 for our party, and this was not a $600 experience.
From start to finish, it was wonderful. Service was outstanding, the table setting and plates used were fun and eclectic, and the food was perfectly delicious. Highly recommend Butter!
Seemed like standard steakhouse fare. Food was good - I probably should have eaten their more adventurous items to be wowed . I rate the service as only fair as I specifically requested heavy cream for my coffee and the first time, we were given curdled milk, the second time, regular milk. They were prompt about replacing the curdled milk though.
My friends and I frequent high end establishments, and we were impressed from the moment we walked in the door. Wonderful ambiance, which felt classy without being stuffy, and was strangely homey and comfortable. The food and cocktails were outstanding, including preparation and seasoning combinations that we had not previously considered. The menu was simple, but deciding what to get was difficult, as literally everything being served sounded delicious. This may have been my first time there, but it won't be my last. One of the three best meals I've been served in my life. I highly recommend the lamb tartare, and apple wood-smoked whisky cocktail.

Oversight of seemingly small projects can result in devastating consequences.
Recently an article ran in the Cleveland Plain Dealer about a tragic fatal accident where a Columbiana county mother was killed when a truck lost control, due to a pothole. The article caught my eye for two reasons, first because the attorney representing the woman’s family was a high school friend and secondly because this record judgment paid by the taxpayers of Ohio was the result of a pothole that was not fixed in a reasonable amount of time.
So I bet you’re wondering what this has to do with the subject we cover here which is project management? I’ll be glad to make that connection. Since CBA has a long relationship with ODOT we know that at the time of the accident in 2008 ODOT was still using Primavera P3 and SureTrak as their construction project management standards. Since those tools were designed to schedule and track single projects it would be very easy to lose sight of a seemingly small project such as patching this particular pothole in a timely fashion, which was the basis for the record judgment. ODOT has now made the transition to P6 and along with stellar project management capabilities it provides enterprise project portfolio management capabilities by being able to track and manage your whole project portfolio and manage it by exception. This is an important point because knowing when a particular project in your portfolio needs resources or is in danger of not meeting it’s start or finish date enables management to easily spot and address the issues, that as pointed out here, could lead to catastrophic consequences.
Since both P3 and SureTrak were discontinued by Oracle at the end of 2010 many of our customers have migrated to Primavera P6, however they still attempt to use this powerful new product in the same fashion as they did with the older less capable products. In essence they are completely ignoring the enterprise project portfolio features of the product therefore potentially exposing themselves to the same types of oversight issues that exposed ODOT to this record judgment. Some may say managing multiple projects in P6 adds a layer of complexity that previously didn’t exist and I wouldn’t disagree with them, but I would say that trying to manage tens if not hundreds of projects simultaneously without the project portfolio capabilities of P6 increases that level of complexity exponentially. With the help of CBA’s professional services team we can provide the guidance and training necessary to achieve your project management goals and avoid letting a comparatively small project apple spoil your whole project management barrel.
Aaron Buda Remembered for His Passion.
Soon after he signed on at Biggby Coffee’s headquarters in East Lansing, Aaron Buda’s co-workers came to appreciate the passion and enthusiasm he brought to everything he did, including the carnitas and baked goods he brought to the office.
On Wednesday, friends and family were trying to cope with the loss of Buda, 24, who was killed Tuesday morning in a crash involving six vehicles on Interstate 496 in Lansing. Police closed parts of the freeway for several hours after the crash.
Three other people suffered minor injuries. Lansing police have released few details about the accident, saying the investigation could take several days.
Buda grew up in Davison near Flint and joined Biggby in early 2011, friends and family said. Before that, he attended Michigan State University for a short time and worked as a legal assistant at a Lansing law firm.
Buda loved to cook and also enjoyed weightlifting and body building, they said.
“He was amazing, talented and intelligent and a wonderful husband to his beautiful wife,” said his sister, Jilleanne Buda, of Portsmouth, Va.
Koerner and Sue Vander Jagt, Biggby’s accounting and human resources director, described Buda as personable and outgoing. He started out in the accounting department and was promoted to manager of organic development less than a year ago – a position he helped develop, they said.
In that role, Buda worked with franchise owners to help them grow their businesses, they said.
“He was the definition of a Biggby enthusiast,” Koerner said. “He wore Biggby attire during weightlifting competitions. He had such a passion for what he did and the company he worked for.
Buda is survived by his wife, Jennifer; parents Terry and Lori Buda; and siblings Dominic, Jilleanne and Victoria.
Services for Aaron will be held at Harmony Baptist Church 5106 E. Bristol Rd Burton, MI.
Please include Terry and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Although the legislative changes are due in October 2014 it is envisaged that the new rules on maternity and paternity leave and pay will apply to children born on or after 05 April 2015.
The new legislation will provide for a statutory right for fathers or partners of pregnant women to take unpaid leave to attend up to two ante-natal appointments. Interestingly that will be no statutory process for making these requests so Premier Legal would suggest that you have a company process incorporated into the staff handbook.
It is proposed (although not yet confirmed) that Keeping in Touch days (KIT days) will be increased from the current 10 days to 20 days. KIT days enabling parents to spend some time at work, for training or simply to get back up to speed before returning to work after leave. These days are paid for by the employer, but the employee does not lose any statutory payment or trigger an end of leave.
But, perhaps the most important change will be the right to share statutory leave and payments between both parents.
It should be noted that the legislation will add rights for adoptive parents and parents through surrogacy as well.
Employers should start to prepare for these changes, by updating maternity, paternity and parental leave policies. Premier Legal’s employment law solicitors can provide or advise on bespoke policies for maternity and paternity leave in any business Call us on 0845 070 0505 (Please note: Calls to this number will cost approximately 4p per minute plus your telephone company’s access charge) for more information.

The city plans to extend the riverwalk, starting this summer, by adding underbridges west of Michigan Avenue. That means extensions will be built on the south bank so you can walk (or bike?) under the bridges at Michigan and Wabash (that’s the Irv Kupcinet bridge, possibly the only thing on that stretch of Wabash that hasn’t had the Trump name slapped on it).
This will have the effect of narrowing the river by about 20 feet at those points, something that will excite anyone who has watched the Medusa Challenger snake through the place. It’s not called the Medusa Challenger anymore, it’s the St. Marys Challenger. Did you know it’s the oldest ship working the Great Lakes? Me neither, but it was launched in 1906.
Judging from Google Maps’ satellite photos, even a river narrower by 20 feet is still plenty wide enough for a boat that size. Still, it’d be exciting to stand on one of the new underbridges and watch.
To make it a little more exciting, let’s find a corporate sponsor — we love corporate sponsors in Chicago — for each of these underbridges. I know just the one: Target.

Redux Jazz Orchestra performs at the 2016 Rosecrance Foundation Benefit.
Rosecrance kicked off its 100th anniversary celebration in style Monday with music and stories of hope at the annual Rosecrance Foundation Benefit.
Vintage-style musicians Redux Jazz Orchestra performed to a sold-out crowd of more than 800 guests at the event, held April 25 at Giovanni’s Restaurant & Convention Center. The benefit helps families who need financial assistance for behavioral health treatment services.
The benefit also included presentation of The Castle Award, Rosecrance’s pinnacle honor, to Rockford landscape architect John Cook, a longtime supporter of the organization. Rosecrance President/CEO Philip W. Eaton recognized Cook for “using his green thumb for good” to help clients and their families heal physically and spiritually.
Cook is the owner of John R. Cook Associates, an award-winning landscape design firm. He offered valuable assistance in the landscaping of the Rosecrance Harrison Campus in 1995 and during the early 2000s as Rosecrance built the Griffin Williamson Campus on University Drive. Cook also has served as a Rosecrance board member for more than 20 years.
Rosecrance Board Member John Cook gives his acceptance speech of the Castle Award at the 2016 Rosecrance Foundation Benefit.
The annual benefit is Rosecrance’s key fundraiser. Attendees enjoyed a retrospective video of the organization’s 100-year history set to the tune of “This Little Light of Mine” and success stories of Rosecrance alumni highlighted in a video titled, “A Happy Birthday.” Illinois Representatives Brian Stewart and John Cabello and Rockford Mayor Larry Morrissey read proclamations honoring Rosecrance’s centennial.
Proceeds from the event go to The Kinley Charity Care Fund, which has raised more than $7 million to help families since the fund was established in 1984. Last year, the Kinley Fund provided more than $568,000 in treatment services.
Anne Boccignone, Rosecrance’s vice president of communications and development, expressed gratitude for the generosity of benefactors in the community who support the benefit.
“We are so grateful to our donors who are the link to hope for hundreds of families each year who walk through our doors needing help,” Boccignone said.

Carbon Fibre (Graphite) Rods for Guitar Neck Stiffening.
The trend towards thinner guitar neck profiles has meant that some additional stiffening may be required. The first attempts to make necks more stable was gluing two or more pieces of wood together, then inserting metal bars, square tube and U profiles, adjustable truss rods and combinations of these. Following this evolution came the appearance of new technical materials and they too found place in instrument building.
Now carbon fibre rods are finding their place in luthiery. They are light in weight and stiff enough do the job. Necks can be made thinner, remaining stable, stiff and rigid. This is important for tuning stability, vibration transfer, attack and sustain while allowing comfortable playability.
Sever found that by adjusting the formulation of the fibre and resins / additives, the final rods responded differently to sound vibration. By inserting high responsive rods into guitar necks he found improvements in the attack and sustain of the guitar. Standard “modelling” carbon fibre tends to reduce the attack and sustain.
Optimising the dimension of the profile also ensures that there is sufficient wood left in the neck below the rod cavity. A practical benefit of using a thicker rod (4mm) is the availability and durability of router cutters. 4mm cutters are 25% stronger than 3mm cutters and cut faster. Intrigued by the overall response and looking for greater strength, Sever developed the “U” profile Carbon Fibre Rod. Giving great strength across its widest dimension it is ideal for stiffening necks. Sever also discovered that gluing two “U” rods together in the neck channel to form a box section profile provided an air chamber that further enhanced the tone and sustain of the neck.
This experimentation combined with over 30 years of guitar making experience has resulted a range of Tone Graphite Rods.
The rods have rounded edges so there is no scraping of the wood on insertion which would prevent proper seating in the slot.
Tone Graphite Rods offer a more thoughtful, engineered solution to improving the performance of guitar necks.

The Liebers: Tuesday Ten: Things I Love About Christmas!!
Tuesday Ten: Things I Love About Christmas!!
It's almost here!! The kids are so excited, and truth be told, I am too! I love almost every single thing about the Christmas season. Today is Tuesday, so I figured it was a good time to make a list of Ten Things I Love About Christmas!
The warmth. Obviously not outside around here (except maybe lately...) but the warmth inside that people seem to be feeling this time of year.
The gifts. Not getting them, but giving them. I love to see the joy on other people's faces when they open something they have been hoping for. Or when they receive something they didn't even know they wanted!
Together time. I'm not quite feeling it yet...the kids need to get used to being together for an extended time first, but we're getting there. They are mostly working together to clean their room right now. It's pretty noisy, though, because they are playing together instead. I'm not gonna rock that boat...at least not until after I've had a shower!
Decorations. We love driving around and looking at the lights on Christmas Eve. I also love having our tree and stockings up and decorated with twinkling lights.
Reflection. Because it's the end of the year and because Christmas memories seem so embedded in our memories, it seems that this time of year is ripe with reflection and nostalgia. I love it!
Family visits. It's a great time of year to go visit with family. We don't have much room to host here, so we tend to do the traveling, but that means I can't stress about laundry or other housework while I'm gone, so that's a good things.
Time off from work. Since I work in a college setting, I have extra time off at Christmas. Sure, that means that I miss out on some other holidays during the year, but when I've got two weeks off in a row, I'm not going to complain!
Gifts. OK, this time I mean gifts for me. Be honest...Who here doesn't like getting presents? That's what I thought!!
I saved the best for last: The reason for the season! I love Christmas because it is when we celebrate Jesus' birthday. We celebrate Him coming into our hearts. We celebrate light coming back to the Earth. Christmas is such a great time for a reminder that God is always with us and that He loves us so much that he even chose to come to us as a mere baby so he could experience our lives in full and give us even more ways to relate to him.
I do love that inner warmth. I totally get that. Merry Christmas, Rabia!!
I love the warmth and the cookies and the being together of the season. There is no time of year like it, is there?

My new material from the Poland-2018 trip took me almost a month of researching, writing, editing. I have visited the Auschwitz memorial site and want to share with you ‘beyond-the-fence’ walking experience along the locations of the historical significance, generally poor known among the visitors. With great respect, I hope this article can widen your understanding of the place, motivate for mindful history and to make your own travel.
I would be greatly appreciated for your feedback (comments, questions, suggestions) as it energizes me to work and share new materials with you. Travel your own history.
Oddly enough it is one place I have never thought about visiting, I did go to Sachsenhausen while in Berlin.
I suspect the difficulty for me is coming to grips with the magnitude of the crimes committed in these places.
I visited Bergen Belson when I was in Germany in the 1980's with the TA, there's nothing left of the original camp, all there is are mass graves, each one containing over 2000 people.
Maybe Stalin was right, one death is a tragedy, one million is a statistic.
He once called his people "Useful idiots"
People who think they supporting one thing, say "Democratic Socialism", w/o realizing what it actually leads to.

Selling of personal organs or self organs part by people is mostly done or practiced by people who may be in dire need of money. They tend to sell part of their organs to gain huge amounts of money in return without considering any risk involved. Some people may also decide to sell their body part or organs for huge amounts of money as a means of sacrifice for their coming generations or family.
Is this practice really appropriate?
Well, I will say it actually depends on the person involved since it's a matter of choice and free will. We live in a world of freedom where we are able to decide and make choices ourselves since it's our life and not other people's lives. I can decide to sell my body part and I can also not decide to sell my body part as this has to do with my choice.
The essential factor we should consider is the fact that these people tend to save the lives of others by rising their own lives. This is one of the greatest sacrifice in the race of humanity. There are lots of cases that has to do with people even donating blood for those whom may be in need of it so as to save the lives of such people and this also applies to the sale of body parts like kidney.
Have you ever put yourself in a deep thought of you being in similar situation whereby you need someone to save your life? I think if you really ponder over this, that's when you tend to realize the value of life. This is why the people in need or such body part can pay you any amount of money you requested because it's a matter of life and death.
In conclusion, it actually depends on the choice of the seller because he owns is body system and he decides whether to sell it or not. That's his or her decision and not our concern. But we should be more focused on saving people's lives if we are capable of doing so and this doesn't means that I am telling you to start selling your body part for money 😀(Lols). It's just a matter of choice and decision making.
It is theirs isn't it? people should have the right to do whatever they wish with their organ.
it's a win win if you ask me so I don't see any reason it should be stoped.
Yes as long as it doesn't endanger the person's health,I feel there are two reasons why people do that. As we usually hear that selling a kidney it's very costly,I feel it's one of the desperate ways of making money,then people also donate to save life ..... personally I feel that getting a perfect donor might be hard if there is no one selling...so it's okay if there is no danger.
Organ transplantation is one of the main wonders of present day drug. Yet, it's a wonder unfortunately distant for a large number of individuals whose lives may be spared.
Thousands more transplant hopefuls may be spared if more Americans marked organ gift cards, if more families assented to gift of their friends and family's organs, and if medicinal work force moved toward the groups of potential contributors all the more regularly. In any case, the supply of cadaveric organs has been disappointingly level.
Organ gift after death is the main practicable answer for heart, lung, pancreas, digestive tract, composite tissue and most liver beneficiaries. There can be no arrangement that overlooks the truth of individuals with these necessities. By concentrating on kidneys alone, where the arrangements must grasp both the expired and the living benefactor, you appear to have disposed of the more extensive requirements for transplantation. I along these lines look for more from you than a cast off line on 'the need to utilize after death gift'.
So as of late, there's been a push to induce living Samaritans — relatives, companions and even outsiders — to give one of their kidneys. That is helped, however insufficient.
In most countries selling kidneys and other organs are still illegal. Here in the Philippines there's a terrible issue about organs syndicate. There's a terror spreading due to kidnappings of children and killing them because of their organs. There are some people involve that has been arrested and admitted the kidnappings and killings of children just for their internal organs. Until today it's still a big issue that wasn't resolve yet as missing of some children are still ongoing.
Let's flip the question. Should people die because hospitals don't have any organs?
Does others' opinion about you really matter?What do think about the new Tether Scandal Accusation?From all the Steem Dapps which one is your favorite?What features would you like to see added to Musing?If you could have a video of any one event in your life, what event would you choose?Wow - I'm loving it - getting up votes from musing. Can you express that feeling of happiness when you receive an up vote from musing?What if someone delegate some of his/her STEEM Power to musing? Are there any rewards we can expect?I'd love to hear what is your favourite love song and why?Do you have any superstition that you keep over years?What is democracy's biggest flaw?

Taiwan Teachings: Fresh Cup Features a Tea Article by Samovar’s Jodet!
On the first day of our tea journey in Taiwan, my friend Lorraine and I found ourselves on a seemingly endless drive along unpaved roads that snaked dangerously through a hulking mountain range. I found myself having the same thought I did when we staggered onto our flight out of San Francisco at 2 a.m. the day before: “What are we doing?” Continue reading Taiwan Teachings: Fresh Cup Features a Tea Article by Samovar’s Jodet!

WOMEN from across Cheshire joined forces on Wednesday evening to 'Race for Life'.
WOMEN from across Cheshire joined forces on Wednesday evening to 'Race for Life'.
The Cancer Research event which started at Chester Zoo attracted 2,500 runners to raise cash to fight cancer.
There were tears and laughter around the course as people shared stories about who they were running for and why.
Commentary from race organisers and Dee 106.3 boosted spirits before participants were lead in a warm up session by instructors from the local Rosemary Conley Diet & Fitness group.
Despite the heat, which was making the event all the harder, everyone made it across the finishing line.
Spectators came out to cheer the women and children on as they made their way around the course.
The winner was Helen Davies from Llangollen's Dinas Brau School. Second place went to Jessica Schofield from Wirral High School and third place to runner Tessa McCormick from Chester who is only 11-years-old.
All the money raised from the Tesco-sponsored event will go into research for a cure for cancer.
The Race for Life takes place all over the country and Cancer Research is hoping to raise more than £60million.
Everyone at the race knew someone who had been affected by cancer and to some it gave the comfort of knowing they aren't alone.

Eggs Benedict is a dish with great variety in texture and great flavor. If you love your eggs runny, you will love this dish.
Eggs Benedict originated in New York or at least that’s one of the stories of how they were created. There are three different stories of who created eggs benedict.
One story is that Mrs. Benedict wanting something different and the chef of Delmonico’s Restaurant created them.
Another story is that a columnist of the New York Times Magazine wrote a column about a letter he had received that contained the recipe. The letter stated that Commodore EC Benedict had created them.
Another story is that it was traditional French dish that had a puree of salt cod & potatoes instead of Canadian bacon.
I don’t know about you but I prefer the Canadian bacon over salt cod.
Besides this French variation, there are many variations including Eggs Florentine, Pacific Northwest Eggs Benedict, Eggs Commander’s, Eggs Royale, and Eggs Montoya.
Traditional Eggs Benedict has an English muffin, a slice of Canadian bacon, poached egg and topped with hollandaise sauce. The different layers gives this dish great variety in texture. The egg is delicate. The sauce is rich and smooth. The muffin gives a little bit of crunch and is a bit chewy. All of them together make this delicious.
Jamie and I were discussing hollandaise sauce over the poached egg. We decided it’s egg sauce over eggs. And since I don’t really care for eggs, this dish was not for me. I tried it, but it was just too much egg for me. However, the Hardworking Husband loved it. He asked me to make it again. And since I love him, I will be doing that.
In a double boiler, fill bottom pan with water that doesn't touch to top pan.
In top pan before putting on bottom pan, vigorously whisk together egg yolks and lemon juice until they have doubled in volume.
Place top pan onto bottom pan and continue to whisk. Be careful to not let the eggs get too warm.
Slowly drizzle butter into egg mixture.
Continue to whisk until mixture has thickened. Set aside in a warm area.
Brown Canadian bacon in a skillet.
Toast English muffin without browning it too much.
Place bacon on muffin then place poached egg on top and drizzle hollandaise sauce over egg.
If the hollandaise sauce becomes too thick, add water and whisk until the right consistency. It should drizzle.
My hollandaise sauce was very bright yellow because I used farm fresh eggs. Their yolks tend to be more yellow in color.

Houston Mayor Annise Parker has confirmed that four fire fighters are dead, six are injured and two are in critical condition.
Captain EMT Matthew Renaud, 35, of Engine 51.
The Houston Fire Department has never seen four firefighters pass away from the same incident in the history of the department.
Below is raw audio from the 5:00 press conference of Mayor Annise Parker and Fire Chief Terry Garrison. Mayor Parker: It is the worst day in HFD history.
Update at 4:20 p.m.: Janice Evans from the Mayor’s Office has confirmed that four fire fighters are dead and five are injured.
Medical examiner says 3 dead in Houston hotel fire; unclear if any are firefighters. We’re waiting on mayor to hold press briefing.
HOUSTON (AP) — At least four Houston firefighters have been injured — two of them critically — battling a five-alarm fire at a southwest Houston motel.
Fire Capt. Rudy Lozano says the injured firefighters have been taken to hospitals.
The blaze broke out just after noon Friday at a restaurant and club at the Southwest Inn on U.S. 59, one of Houston’s most heavily traveled expressways. Flames that spread to the motel part of the building were still shooting from the roof of the structure more than an hour later.
Temperatures in the low 90s and high humidity hampered firefighting efforts, and smoke from the fire snarled traffic on the expressway.
No cause for the blaze has been immediately announced.
Houston Fire Department is reporting they were dispatched to a building fire at 12:09 p.m. this afternoon. It appeared to have started in the Bhojan Restaurant.
Four firefighters have been transported to various hospital.
The fire was upgraded to a 5-alarm fire just after 1 p.m.
HOUSTON (AP) — Firefighters are battling a fire at a southwest Houston hotel.
Flames are shooting out from the roof of the Southwest Inn on Friday. Several fire trucks and emergency responders are working outside of the hotel.
The fire is causing traffic to be backed up in both directions on Southwest Freeway.

Don’t believe the picture opposite for a second. He may look like his privates have just been hooked into the national grid, but Jack Black is generally about as energetic as a sloth on Mogadon when we meet. Only when the camera appears does the voltage soar.
Energy, of course, is what we expect from Black: the scattergun mania and cavalcade of cartoon expressions that shunted him to the front of the comedy queue in such films as High Fidelity, School of Rock and Nacho Libre, and in his parallel career with his satirical rock band Tenacious D.

But the Bulls game will mark his ninth straight missed since suffering a left index finger injury January 18.
The Lakers shouldn't count on this however, as the Pelicans still potentially have more to gain in a trade by waiting until the summer anyway when Boston and NY are able to offer their stockpiles of valuable assets.
Head coach Alvin Gentry spoke about sitting Davis and how the rumors have been affecting the team. Prior to the Lakers' matchup with the Pacers on Tuesday, (7 p.m. ET - Watch on FuboTV with NBA League Pass add-on), James was asked about the potential addition of Davis and had a pretty politically correct response for media members. Not only would they secure Davis for the rest of this season and next, but they'd also prevent the Boston Celtics from having a shot at trading for the star big man. Los Angeles is one of Davis' preferred destinations, and the club already reportedly offered a package of Lonzo Ball, Kyle Kuzma, Brandon Ingram, Lance Stephenson, Rajon Rondo, and Michael Beasley in hopes of landing him.
Security Council's five permanent members - the United States, Russia, China, France and Britain - all nuclear powers. At the same time, the U.S. will begin withdrawing from the treaty, which will be effective in six months, he said.
"I've had teammates every year be a part of trade deadline discussions and things of that nature and we've always figured out to just shield that away and play the game". But, they are still "anxious to trade" for him and pair him with Irving, ESPN's report says.
The Lakers' final offer did include two first-round draft picks, they said. You're going to have to develop your young talent, you're going to have to try to win basketball games and at the same time have your name involved with somebody that doesn't even play with your team. The Pelicans believe that the Lakers' bid at the trade deadline will still be available to them in the offseason, sources said. "But the more they wanted, the more it became outrageous and unrealistic". Maybe, but for now it sounds like the Lakers are officially out of the Anthony Davis race.
The five-time All-Star's top choice would be a move to the Lakers, according to an earlier ESPN report.
If any of them previously lied to Congress or to FBI investigators, they'll be looking over their shoulder for a while. Law enforcement shined a flashlight into Stone's front door before one officer rapped against it, shouting, "FBI".
The Barcelona superstar suffered a thigh injury Saturday in the draw with Valencia but he practiced with his teammates Tuesday. Ousmane Dembele , who also trained after recovering from two weeks out with an ankle sprain, has not been named in the squad.
Reed, a nine-time Pro Bowl selection, teamed with Hall of Fame linebacker Ray Lewis on some of Baltimore's stout defenses. Kevin Mawae, an eight-time Pro Bowl center who spent half his 16-year career with the Jets, is headed to Canton, Ohio.
Maduro had stated in an Interview that he does not want to give in to the demand for an early presidential election. Venezuela's military attache to Washington deserted the president on Saturday.

In September 30th we did the Public school ministry training for about 40 people. The whole New Hope Ukraine office team was involved into preparing and holding the training session.
The speakers paid attention to motivation first of all, why we do what we do. They talked about correct purposes, aims and expectations as well as about importance of making challenges. 8 different topics, developed to be used at schools, were discussed during the training. Each participant got the paper materials and digital presentations.

FREDERICTON – With the two-day Roundtable on Seniors Care wrapped up, Dr. Camille Haddad, President of the New Brunswick Medical Society and Dr Chris Simpson, Past President of the Canadian Medical Association, thanked those who had attended and contributed solutions.
The Roundtable was organized by the New Brunswick Medical Society in partnership with the Canadian Medical Association. Both organizations have spoken out in the past about the need for improvements to seniors care and both support the national initiative called Demand a Plan.
The past two days of the event have included a public session with expert panellists, a Patient and Providers Exhibition, and today’s closed-door discussion with health experts and patients. A document comprising proposed solutions from health providers and patient organizations, titled Voices on Seniors Care, was produced to supplement the event.
The event takes place less than a month before the federal election, at a time when many Canadians have highlighted seniors care as a key issue. A recent Canadian Medical Association survey found that 57 per cent of Canadians agree that how they vote in the next federal election will depend, at least in part, on who has the best plan to address seniors health. In addition, 89 per cent of Canadians think the next federal government must address the needs of Canada’s aging population.

All right, "End of Eternity" soundtracks are just out.
6 CD ! That's huge for a single game. Has anybody here preordered it ? ordered it ? bought it ? received it ? listened to it ?
In a word : is it worth it ? And how is the music ingame ?
Dang, I almost wish it was fewer discs just so it could be less expensive. Haven't ordered or heard, but I hope it'll be worth it.
The soundtrack is quite padded out, Tanaka's map themes always come in day/night variations while Sakuraba's dungeon/battle themes come in normal/action variations. Especially the latter is presented very badly on the soundtrack since in-game the two variations can change back and forth at any time, representing the state of the battle. This means both variations have to have the same length, same basic structure and Sakuraba was apparently forced to stay in 4:4 rhythm all the time (taking away most of his usual rhythmic charms). As a result on the soundtrack the separated variations with typical Sakuraba track lengths likely sound droning to those who don't like the style he was asked to do there. The length alone will ensure there won't be many fans which I find that unfortunate since the game soundtrack (in-game, not so much the soundtrack release) is quite unique in approach and execution (like the whole game actually).
I was going to buy it, until I found out it's a 5000 yen 6 disc monster of a thing, and then I just lost interest.
There's no way I'm spending that much money on a soundtrack.
It is very VERY good though.
I'm very tempted to buy it because I like both of those composers. But after paying the piper for Guwange and DDP: Black Label, I need a vacation.
It's one of the worst listening experiences I've heard in a while. It EASILY could have been cut down in size by half and really should have been. That and the Tanaka material is lightyears ahead of Sakuraba's usual schtick.
That said, it's worth noting that it all works well in the game.
The difference is that one is the title of an Isaac Asimov novel that has been optioned by Hollywood.
