Teachers collaborating on a visual, poetic piece.
When I think of what “teacher-centered” refers to, I first consider professional development. That is our learning, where we are the students. Professional development should always have the end result in mind: how will teachers use this material inside their classroom to better their students’ learning. However, the PD itself, needs to be focused on teacher as well.
What in this PD can ignite a fire in the teacher?
What can the teacher learn that he/she can pass on to his/her students?
What connections can the teacher make (with other teachers as well as resources) so that they feel justified and supported in the follow-up work they do?
I’m a firm believer in this type of professional development, which is why I designed and created the Teacher Art Retreat. These retreats are meant to excite and inspire teachers so that they can bring this love of learning and creation to their students. In addition to being teacher-centered, these retreats are arts-based. This year’s Teacher Art Retreat will include workshops in visual art, music, movement, origami and Pysanky as well as some mindfulness, poetry and, of course drumming. The atmosphere is welcoming and non-stressful – a place to relax, learn, create and reflect – a true retreat!
Finally, the connections that the retreaters make each year are simply wonderful. Bonds within schools and districts have been started, reignited and strengthened, networks of like-minded educators have been broadened, and, most-importantly, friendships are made. When you have teacher-centered and arts-based learning going on, the connections are faster and deeper.
At the end of our Teacher Appreciation month here at The Inspired Classroom, I want you to consider these things as you search for summer and fall professional development. Do something that is going to inspire you! After all, you need to get inspired, in order to be inspiring to your students.
Are you considering attending the retreat? Great! We have local people from the MA, NH area come every year as well as a couple from out of the area. Think, “Teacher Road Trip! Last year we even had someone make a family vacation out of it and travel out of country from Canada!
The retreat runs from Aug 1-3, 2016 and is held at the St. Jame’s Lodge in Hampton, NH. For all the info, go here.
Professional development should be for YOU as much as it is for your students. After all, you need to GET inspired, in order to BE inspiring!

A major new scheme designed to tackle homelessness in West Oxfordshire has been given the green light.
The Families First project will work with families and couples in a bid to prevent homelessness happening in the first place.
The move is in response to a change in the reasons for homelessness occurring in the District.
New figures show that between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2017, of 106 homelessness applications received by the Council, 42 per cent were due to parents or relatives no longer being willing to accommodate adult children, while a further 21 per cent were a result of the breakdown of relationships.
Both of these reasons increased during the two-year period.
The Families First project will employ a dedicated project officer to work with families where there is a risk of homelessness occurring.
Funding will also be provided for family / relationship counselling and possible accommodation adaptations to allow different generations to share property more comfortably.
Families First will be funded by the Flexible Homelessness Support Grant which the Government introduced on 1 April following the removal of the Temporary Accommodation Management Fee.
The Council will receive £72,545.98 from the Grant in 2017-18 and £83,471.20 in 2018-19.
As well as Families First, the Council, along with partner authorities Cotswold District Council and Forest of Dean District Council, will pool £40,000 a year from the Grant to fund the appointment of a Joint Housing Property Manager and a Joint Private Rented Sector Liaison Manager to help ensure as much accommodation is made available as possible and cut waiting lists.
A Private Rented Sector Fund will also be set up to loan residents’ fees such as cash deposits, fees and payment of rent in advance as well as helping make accommodation habitable.
Cllr Colin Dingwall, Cabinet Member for Housing at West Oxfordshire District Council, said: “As a council we have a statutory responsibility to help the homeless but this new scheme is designed to prevent it happening at the outset.

History textbooks have a way of glossing over tragedy and confining the truth inside neat timelines and orderly rows of facts and figures.
But history is messier and bloodier than that, especially during the Civil War when a young nation was nearly torn asunder, leaving deep wounds that still haven’t healed more than a century and a half later. The Civil War, and the racism and hatred that triggered it, is still claiming victims today in angry and sometimes fatal clashes over the removal of Confederate monuments across the country.
Mark Bradford confronts this tragic legacy at the Hirshhorn Museum in his largest work to date. “Pickett’s Charge” features eight mixed-media panels, each more than 45 feet long, stretching in a massive panorama across the entire inner ring of the museum’s third floor. The work was inspired by “The Battle of Gettysburg,” the epic 1883 cyclorama by French artist Paul Dominique Philippoteaux that depicted Pickett’s Charge, the final ill-fated Confederate attack led in part by Maj. Gen. George Pickett that ended with a decisive defeat for the Confederacy from which it never recovered.
Philippoteaux interviewed survivors and reconstructed scenes of the battlefield with a photographer before painting his truly staggering work, which was two stories tall and 279 feet in circumference. The painting was displayed in a special circular theater with a foreground of real trees, stone walls and fences to create a tableau so lifelike that some veterans of the battle wept when they saw it. The tourist attraction was so popular that Philippoteaux was commissioned to create a second even larger cyclorama that is now on display at the Gettysburg National Military Park.
In “Pickett’s Charge,” Bradford depicts some of the battle scenes shown in Philippoteaux’s cyclorama, but the lifelike realism and historical precision have been shattered and peeled back to reveal tattered layers and uncertain story lines. In his massive Los Angeles studio, Bradford and his assistants used thick layers of paint, colored paper, bungee cords and other materials to create abstract, thickly textured paintings that were then scraped, gouged and torn. Those violent gashes and tears rip through our illusions about the famous battle and the glorification of war.
In one panel, a once valiant battlefield scene looks like cheap peeling wallpaper in a house destined for destruction. Only dark shadowy fragments of two soldiers on horseback are visible on another panel, creating an ill sense of foreboding about whether they are friend or foe or just mysterious apparitions. Across the eight winding panels, the neat and tidy historical narrative of Pickett’s Charge has been demolished, and the facts and figures won’t fit in their narrow rows any more.
In Philippoteaux’s cyclorama, visitors could stand on a central platform and turn in a full circle to see the grand sweep of the illusory world surrounding them. In the Hirshhorn, the entire installation can’t be seen at any one place or time. Visitors must walk around the museum’s unique circular architecture, with one panel appearing ahead as the previous disappears behind. The beginning and end are lost, mirroring our collective history. What lies ahead can’t be seen and what lies behind has been forgotten or misremembered.
The deconstruction of history in “Pickett’s Charge” alludes to the ever-present danger of delusion and the disguising of blatant lies as “alternative facts,” as President Donald Trump and his apologists demonstrate on a daily basis. In the debate over the Civil War, history has been twisted and the facts ignored as some people convince themselves that the bloody struggle wasn’t really fought over slavery but for some nobler pursuit of “states’ rights.” As a nation, we are still slaves to our own dark imaginations, and the lies we tell ourselves persist across generations and beyond hope or reason.

As in the smartphone business, the market is slowly marginalized by the Top 5 companies. 64% of the gadgets were sold by either Xiaomi, Huawei, Apple, BBK, or Lifesense in Q4 2018, compared with 57% 12 months ago. All five of them saw an increase in total amount of units, and IDC predicted the trend will continue, with the overall market reaching 120 million devices by 2023.
A key segment for wearables is children smartwatches used by parents for trackers. Out of the 72.3 million devices sold, 21.67 million were for kids, with 38% of them having 4G capabilities. This share will grow in the future thanks to migration from 2G and 3G and because of improving online market.
Pan Xuefei, Research Manager for IDC China, commented that heart monitor sensors and other health-related products would keep boosting the market and we should expect other manufacturers to join the party.
Good to know wireless tech surpases wired one.

Overlooking the beauty of Mediterranean Sea and the mountains, Ramada Plaza is centrally located in Antalya and just 700 metres from the historic Kaleiçi Old Town.
First the location is near the old city of Antalya, the beach of Konyaaltı, the market, and many other things to visit. The breakfast had many many options to select from, and the view to the see was breathtaking and the price was very acceptable.
Due to the nature of the location, there is no sand beach. To improve I would say more children facilities.
I loved the architecture of the hotel very beautiful with a grand entrance. The breakfast was fantastic lots of variation of foods and pastiseries.
I booked a room with a jacuzzi and expected it be cleaned the following day after use which was not cleaned for 3 nights after using it each night. Staff not helpful regarding this after informing them. There is also a misleading mini bar In the room which is not clear which is included in the package just beware before consumption so u don’t get a big bill at the end. Also booking through halal booking the fridge was full of alcohol... ?
Please note that the hotel has central air conditioning which is set by the property depending on season.

It wasn’t long before we were planning road trips. English Heritage book in hand and referencing a Pinterest board of favourite places, I had many in mind for us. I asked Hendrik the main sites he wanted to see, it soon became clear the planning side of it was mostly left in my hands – which I was more than happy to do.
‘I want to see those white cliffs’ – Dover first popped into my head but then I remembered, the south coast has some stunning views of white cliffs, particularly the Jurassic coastline, a road trip was beginning to form and an excuse to revisit some of my favourite places in the Isle of Purbeck.
Corfe Castle was a local haunt as a kid, spending short holidays down in Swanage and the surrounding areas with my cousins, staying in a family home in the area. Heading west after a few days for the jetlag to work itself off, we made a trip in the Knobster (my car’s affectionate nickname). Approaching Corfe Castle is one of those sites you do not forget as a child, first off knowing you’re going to a castle but then when it hits you as you take the corner into Corfe, staring up at it dominating the skyline. We’d chosen a beautiful day for it, the sun was super shiney and we made hay nice and early, missing the influx of excitable half-term energised kids. The village is full of historical character and has barely changed, the stone has a grey rugged quality that sits perfectly alongside the castle as it’s backdrop. It holds all the things you’d expect from a cute little English town, a good olde sweet shop, a lovely church and a nice selection of pubs and café’s, a particular favourite is one alongside the steam railway that takes you to and from Swanage if you so wish.
Being the old fart that I am I usually relish in the idea of peace and quiet and would think twice about heading out ‘touristing’ when the kids are off school, however at the castle they had laid on some activities especially for the kids (and big kids) such as long bow archery, which looked fitting next to the castle – Hendrik picked this up straight away. It gave me such pleasure to be back climbing around the castle ruins as I did as a child, and seeing Hendrik’s reaction to the beauty and atmosphere of the site made it so much better still, we were buzzing off of each other’s excitement, knowing we had many other great things planned for the day.
A fun drive through narrow windy country roads we headed towards the coast, first off to Durdle Door. I’ve since learned it is one of the most iconic sites in Britain -everybody heads here for the perfect photo opportunity of the archway in the rock (similarly to Cathedral Cove in New Zealand, and that was just as busy!) Yep well, everyone was here! It didn’t matter, we took more of a walk on the sand away from the crowds and enjoyed the luminosity of the chalky cliffs and of course managed a selfie or two. We would often look for off the beaten track routes to take (just read any other adventure blog I’ve written). We climbed back up through the rock heading along the steep cliff edge in the glorious spring-time heat.
Feeling a bit puffed we had a bite to eat and I suggested we head further south east to Swanage, to a town I knew well. Swanage is the epitome of a small but busy British seaside town, complete with weather beaten beach huts and out of date amusements. This time later in the day however we wanted nothing more than to play about on arcade games and eat a massive portion of fish and chips, a perfectly sweet ending to the day.
We’d take smaller trips out all the time between me working, seeing as much as we could. Bishop’s Waltham Palace is a local site on the English Heritage map that I’d not yet visited, despite my Mum working in the small farming village there. I was so impressed by the ruins I even returned today as I write this. I was particularly surprised at the scale of the site and the tallest remaining tower is almost fully overgrown resembling something out of Gormenghast, it’s stuff of fantasy and well worth a visit (it’s free!).
Winchester is a must see city and original capital of England. Steeped in history, gorgeous architecture and the stunning cathedral, the up-market restaurants and quirky pubs are the icing on the cake.
In fact, Winchester opened up many connections between us both including our love and interest in Arthurian Legend – the knight’s round table being housed in the Great Hall in Winchester which lead me to tell him about my love for Tintagel Castle (Arthur’s supposed castle) this would later lead on to links in Glastonbury etc..that’s for another Blog I feel!
So I ‘treated’ Hendrik to a brief history of the reformation, Henry VIII, the stained glass window and basically how Winchester Cathedral became buggered.. and then not so buggered.. but felt far more comfortable explaining my interest in Antony Gormley. No visit to the Cathedral is complete without viewing the mysterious life-size sculpture (Sound II) housed in the Norman crypt. Standing there with cupped hands contemplating the water – which so often floods the entire crypt.
We took a stroll up the high street towards the Great Hall to witness the round table and after a rather damp day strolling around we were after some refreshment. At this point I’d like to add that we both share an obsessive love of good food and it took us exactly 10 minutes of arriving in Winchester before we sampled the delights of Patisserie Valerie for breakfast.
There’s a really cool pub at the lower end of town called the Black Boy which is full of collectable curiosities and I just knew the immense selection of miniatures on display were enough to tempt Hendrik into a pint there. Fuelled up, there was time for another English Heritage site Wolvesey Castle. The medieval Bishops of Winchester were rich and powerful men, the relations and advisers of kings. Wolvesey, standing a stone’s throw from Winchester Cathedral, was their main residence throughout the Middle Ages. The extensive remains date largely from the great 12th century palace of Bishop Henry of Blois, brother of King Stephen. After a good stroll, an ice-cream and a photo, our thoughts turned to Gin.
With it’s lush statement greenhouse, home to all the botanicals used to create such a unique and yummy gin the Bombay Sapphire Distillery is certainly picturesque.
Based at Laverstoke Mill in rural North Hampshire, just 15 miles from Winchester, the Bombay Sapphire Distillery is in a conservation area with over 1000 years of history. For over 225 years, the Victorian and Georgian buildings set astride the crystal clear River Test produced bank note paper for the Bank of England and the British Empire. Now, Laverstoke Mill is a state-of-the-art sustainable distillery, which produces every drop of Bombay Sapphire gin.
A tailor made cocktail completed this day, I was feeling grateful to have so many great places to show Hendrik not far from my England home.

In preparing to write this column, I thought broadly about the role that technological innovation has played in changing the nature of warfare over the years: robotics, night vision technology, air mobility, the internal combustion engine, GPS, radar, the internet, the machine gun, the chitosan bandage, freeze-drying technology (both food and blood), and even duct tape. I could go on and on, but my point here is that continued innovation -- in forms both large and small -- has improved the lives of our Soldiers and contributed immeasurably to their success on the battlefield, and will be critical to modernizing the force. Not only that, but those innovations have also created countless jobs and helped create untold wealth.
Recently, I have endeavored to reach out to traditionally non-defense small businesses that have never worked with the government but have great ideas and perhaps revolutionary innovations that could be of some benefit to the Army. In order to maximize the Army's reach to industry, in 2014, while working in private industry, I created the Innovator's Corner, a popular engagement opportunity at the Association of the United States Army's Annual Meeting and Exposition in Washington, and more recently at AUSA's Global Force Symposium in Huntsville, Alabama. At this month's AUSA Annual Meeting, the Innovator's Corner will once again showcase individuals and small companies with unique products or services that can meet the needs of the Soldier.
I have long recognized that the Army must enhance engagements with the entrepreneur-funded community, small businesses and other nontraditional defense partners by: 1) understanding the spectrum of technologies being developed commercially that may benefit the Army; 2) integrating nontraditional innovators into the Army's research and development ecosystem; and 3) providing mentorship and expertise to accelerate, mature and transition technologies of interest to the Army.
• Provide seed capital to accelerate technology maturation.
• Provide access to collaborative research space at Army Open Campus locations across the country.
• Facilitate partnership opportunities with Army laboratories and test centers.
• Provide mentorship to transition technologies back to the government.
These innovative activities coalesce the collective expertise of entrepreneurs, technologists and warfighters, all with a vision for making an impact on the defense of our nation.
The first instantiation of this new concept is the Expeditionary Technology Search, or xTechSearch, launched in June as a catalyst for the Army to engage with this promising business sector, driving American innovation for Army challenges and spurring economic growth. Aimed at attracting game-changing innovation, xTechSearch expands our sources beyond the traditional defense industrial base and provides access for pitching novel technology solutions directly to Army leadership.
Having come from industry and understanding the challenges associated with entering "the process," I know firsthand that the Army must proactively and aggressively engage with innovators to see what new ideas, concepts, systems and subsystem components they can bring to the table. The next generation of enabling technologies required to achieve our modernization priorities may not currently exist -- or they may, and not be apparent to the Army.
A four-phase competition, xTechSearch offers up to $1.95 million in prizes to discover innovative technology that will support the Army's modernization priorities: long-range precision fires, Next Generation Combat Vehicle, Future Vertical Lift, the Army network, air and missile defense, and Soldier lethality.
Phase I: The concept white paper contest is where eligible contestants describe their novel technology concept and outline its integration with one of the Army's modernization priorities. This phase was completed in July, and the response was encouraging. We accepted 349 white papers, with 129 related to Soldier lethality; 25 addressing air and missile defense; 80 regarding the Army network; 39 for Future Vertical Lift; 51 related to the Next Generation Combat Vehicle; and 17 for long-range precision fires. In the category of "other," eight papers were submitted that did not relate directly to a specified modernization priority. They may still be of value, offering a capability heretofore not militarily considered. Of the entrants, 125 winners received $1,000 each and an invitation to participate in Phase II.
Phase II: As many as 125 selected contestants will have the chance to compete in the xTechSearch technology pitches. Each contestant will complete an in-person technology pitch to a panel of Army experts and judges at select locations across the United States. The final number of Phase II winners had not been determined as of this writing, but up to 25 winners will receive $5,000 each and an invitation to participate in Phase III.
Phase III: The xTechSearch semifinalists, as many as 25, will be featured at the Innovator's Corner during AUSA's 2018 Annual Meeting and Exposition, to be held Oct. 8-10 in Washington, with up to 12 winners receiving $125,000, six months to develop a proof of concept, and an invitation to participate in Phase IV.
Phase IV: In the xTechSearch Capstone Demonstration, up to 12 selected finalists will demonstrate the proof of concept for their technology solutions to DOD, government and industry leadership to determine the winner of the $200,000 prize. If the winner does not have or understand how to establish a relationship with the government and Army, they will be shepherded through the process to ensure our access to them.
The xTechSearch is a new way to link innovators directly with Army labs, with a focus on lowering the entrance barriers and spurring innovation. I look forward to sharing the results of the competition with you.
Private sector innovation is critical to the Army's future and an important part of our strategy to provide the right capability to the Soldier at the right time. During my tenure, we will look everywhere for opportunities to accelerate innovation and deliver advanced technologies that will enable Soldiers to win our nation's wars and come home safely.

Although we do our best to thoroughly test each unit during production, sometimes problems may still surface.
We posted some possible solutions here for the more common user experienced complications.
Note: Please remember to install 4 AA batteries prior to initial usage. Refer to Step 4 in the installation guide.
Pulsating Flow - Water cycles on and offnonstop.
Sensor is sensing nearby objects and presents false reading.
This is a common problem with very small sinks or small stainless steel sinks with reflective surfaces.
The factory default sensing range is set to 7" for the IR sensor. We can provide a sensor range adjustment tool to adjust the sensing distance. Contact us for more details.
The most common cause is that there are no power that is going into the unit. Check to see if there are indeed working batteries in the faucet.
IR sensor red light blinks while the unit has power and has sensed a nearby object. A clicking sound also confirms this function.
The piston could possibly lockup during transit or long term storage. A light tap on top of the piston housing will usually loosen it.
Check to see if there are objects or obstruction in the IR sensor’s path. Possible false reading could also be the cause. Refer to pulsating flow in this chart.
Check for power and replace old batteries if needed. If the unit still runs non-stop, internal components might be damaged. A head replacement is required.
Leakage - Fails to turn offcompletely after fixture is closed.
Accumulation of debris inside the piston is the cause - cleaning the piston is needed. Sometimes for a new construction job, the water lines were never flushed so a large amount of debris work its way into the faucet. By examining the line filters you can confirm this suspicion.
Inspect the rubber piston rings during cleaning. If it is damaged, a new faucet head replacement is necessary.

I like it when Corbett re-emphasizes key points, such as “Manufacturing Consent” via the propaganda marketing tool which tries to paint the picture of “Look, everybody is on board with this concept. You should be too.” (because you are sheep and follow the herd).
Actually, it is remarkable that people are somewhat easily led.
The ‘appropriate sane human response’ gets substituted by an agenda intention through a propaganda campaign.
War is another example. Who in their right mind wants to invade and kill people in another country?
Fluoride, vaccine mercury/aluminum in the bloodstream, radiation waves, or poisoned-sprayed, genetically and chemically altered food…Who in their right mind wants that stuff?
I think that one of the main reasons why so many people resent the MainStreamMedia is that they despise the propaganda campaigns.
Near the close you talked about being “weird”. The nickname I was given when I was 17 was “weird one”. At 63 I am living that all the more. For me there was a simple solution to the travel problem, don’t. Over a decade ago I was always picked out for “extra security”, and I don’t want to find out what would happen now, especially now that I have a beard (scary). For the vast majority of my travels, I use my feet. A ten mile hike to stores and such is not a problem and now I walk above 4MPH. May I also suggest my health has radically improved.
One of the most amazing things about walking is that it isn’t cars that you pass by, but people. Occasionally I have gotten into conversations with some of those people. That is a joy I don’t want to miss and highly recommend.
In my town, the roads are constantly being torn up to put in bike and bussing lanes. Driving is a nightmare. It’s quite a special feeling to wait at a BIKES ONLY signal in rush hour traffic where the lanes have been reduced to support the traffic of imaginary ghost bikes…. -45 degrees C with windchill and we’re taking measures to “cool the planet by reducing our carbon footprint”. The infrastructure of the Smart Grid is being installed concurrently with road “improvements” that result in 2 lane roads being restored where before there were 2 lane roads.
People are proudly showing off their new “Smart” appliances and marvel at their Captain-Picard-Like-Powers as Google dims the lights in the living room at their command.
We are being socially engineered to accept energy austerity policies. How long before we are urged to put on sweaters as our Smart Furnaces have been remotely set to a maximum of 16 degrees C? Lights out at 10:00… we have a planet to save.
The plan is to encourage the working class to use less energy while boosting energy prices so as not to hurt profits. Better yet, we are being programmed to DEMAND these energy austerity policies from our benevolent leaders.
You might consider enjoying the privilege of travel while you still can. Plenty of opportunity for conversation while waiting in line to be probed and / or prodded.
Distinctivist–I made the same choice this very week. I had to ask myself, “Do I really want to go to that conference in CA if I have to fly?” No! was my resounding answer back. I HATE TO FLY.
Flying used to be so pleasant and fun. The personnel were wonderful, helpful and happy to see you. Today, you get sip, nada, nothing, not even a smile in most cases. The personnel are so incredibly paranoid, both on and off the plane, it’s totally unbelievable to me. And! I have flown for a major airline.
While I once enjoyed travel I now cringe every time I’m forced to walk in to an airport. I don’t even like picking-up someone at an airport. In Albuquerque, NM it’s been just about as bad as having to go inside and be handled. The profiling for the personnel handling the curb has shown itself to me, personally, to be scary. And ABQ is a very small airport.
Flying is everything James pointed out here–a theatre of control. When travel used to mean enjoyment and anticipation now it means a churning stomach upon entering an airport property. I don’t fly often so the situation is made much worse by my lack of participation. I get picked out as a possible terrorist because I don’t often fly. It’s much like the USA credit system. You participate often you are their darling. You don’t? They treat you as threat.
In the late 70’s, early 80’s, I was a bellman/driver for a large 640 room hotel in Dallas which looked like a castle on 14 acres. It was located next to the Love Field airport.
In those days, flying was fun. Full of adventure. No screening.
I shuttled thousands of flight attendants and pilots to and from the airport or their training centers.
A couple pilots let me fly a jumbo in the flight simulator. I crashed as I didn’t pull up on the yoke well enough on the runway. The pilots were playing around, flying into buildings.
Dallas based Southwest Airlines had their famous hot pants and high leather boots.
Braniff Airlines was the big international player during this era. I made friends with hundreds of training flight attendants (both male and female) from South America. I would take them to and from their training facility daily, or for excursions to places like Six Flags Over Texas. Often, I would help them out around the hotel. Sometimes, I had candy or beer/wine waiting for them on the bus after their long day of training.
At their graduation party, they all lifted their glasses and gave me a toast, repeatedly chanting my name. I blushed bright red, and they later teased me about it.
Commentator talks us through the range of Braniff International Airways outfits worn by their Air Hostesses.
It was time for the South American Braniff flight attendant trainees to fly back home. As the large group was gathering out front of the hotel, I asked them for their unused meal vouchers. The meal vouchers were slips of paper which gave them free meals in the large Hotel restaurant. The Brazilian guys joked and said I must be part Brazilian with my bellman methods of making money.
I collected about $1300 in meal vouchers.
A few days later, I went down to the restaurant manager and asked to speak to him in his office. I layed out this huge pile of vouchers on his desk. I knew the vouchers would make his food costs look great. I said, “I’ll give you all these vouchers, but I want the gratuity (standard tip) which goes with them.” We shook on the deal.
I had a lot of adventures during this job.
I was one of those FAs for Braniff International. Trained with the South Americans when we picked up the SA routes. On the US side we were known throughout the States as the most beautiful women in the air. (It was not the hot pants.) To quote Spider John: “Those NE Texas women with the cotton candy hair.” We loved our passengers. It was fun.
From Wikipedia article: Algis Budrys of Galaxy Science Fiction in 1966 praised The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, citing “Heinlein’s expertise for dirt-level politics, snappy dialogue and a sense of an actual living society”. He said that he had never read a more believable computer character than Mike (“may in fact be the most fully realized individual in the story”). Budrys suggested that the story may actually be Mike manipulating humans without their knowledge to improve its situation, which would explain why the computer no longer communicates with them after the revolution succeeds. Reiterating that Mike manipulated the humans, in 1968 Budrys said that every review of the book, including his own, erred by not stating that the computer is the protagonist. Carl Sagan wrote that the novel had “useful suggestions for making a revolution in an oppressive computerized society”.

Z-man, that was an interesting link to what and how American views are formed on Zionism. After that piece, the next gootube up had a great story and bit of important history. The old Pat Buchanan show CROSSFIRE had an interview with Congressman from Georgia who also was John Birch Society President Larry Macdonald . Listen to what he revealed in his answers to Tom Braden and Pat Buchanan’s questions.
This was 4 months before he was murdered on flight KLA 007 Korean Air, shot down by the Soviet s in 1983.
Link to Crossfire : Congressman Larry Macdonald.
There are so many connections to Docherty and Macgregor books to the Commie of 1983. Who has the power?
These seem about the UK?
The USA version is removed from Youtube it seems.
This is another film again.
Of course this is foreign interference..
Wikileaks show that the IMF and worldbank are weaponized institutes.
Talk about cherry picking, ad hominem attacks, poisoning the well, logical fallacies, government funded source citing, and so much more!
Honestly, as much as i know about propaganda… i needed this reminder. The media sculpted world in my mind is out of sync with my gut, and this is WHY….since it is Never actually SEEN, this truth gets lost in the sea of images….I SO value your work, thank you….
Back around 2000 to 2003 or so I just happened to take a few plane rides. Being a big guy and right around 40; an American looking of looking of European or Middle eastern decent, I got asked to step a side often.
As I have alluded to several times here already, I am a man of action, a rebel of sorts. It’s my nature, it’s in my DNA.
I have also alluded to the fact that there is an amazing amount of brainpower that we should be able to tap into on this site: that belonging to all the Corbeteer members.
Just as people can quickly and easily be conditioned/trained to be compliant, docile cattle at airport security check points, so too can we quickly and easily turn off the compliance switch.
For if you were in a TSA line and you saw 30 or 40 people in front of you refuse to walk through the body scanner one after another, would you join in and be the 31st or 41st person to refuse, or would you break the pattern and comply with the TSA instruction to walk into the scanner?
There is and always will be strength in numbers.
James pointed out in this video the fact that although most people are still complying with the TSA’s wishes at security checks, they are doing it reluctantly. That is they are thinking the same thoughts that you and I are thinking for the most part; that the whole screening process is a demeaning sham.
In a previous episode James mentioned a day of action where fliers at an airport were planning to refuse instructions to pass through the body scanners.
When authorities got wind of the planned event, they decided to nip it in the bud by allowing all the passengers to skip the body scanning process entirely for the day.
My challenge to all here is to come up with a way/method whereby random air passengers could instantly band together as a group, at a moments notice, and refuse to go through the body scanners.
The group could start off as small as 5 or 10 individuals, but the passengers behind them would be hip to what was happening and quickly join in the boycott of the scanners.
After the size of the group became 40-50 strong, all the passengers behind them would flip that natural ‘conditioning switch’ and also refuse the body scanners.
Authorities would quickly realize that they have no choice but to relent and turn off the body scanners, for money talks.
Airlines would not fly with half empty planes or worse.
The disruption to flight schedules to accommodate pat-downs would be overwhelming and totally unmanageable.
When this successful ‘protest’ was publicized, it would catch on like wildfire at airports around the world.
People would quickly learn the cue(s) that were used to initiate the protest and take full advantage of them at a moments notice.

The new General Coordination Council of the Union is holding its first annual meeting in the Casa La Salle, Fratelli Scuole Cristiane, Via Aurelia 476, 00165 Rome, from the 21st to the 25th of April 2018.
On Monday April 23rd, this Council re-elected Ms. Donatella Acerbi as President, and elected Fr. Gilberto Orsolin, SAC, as Vice President. The re-election of Donatella was confirmed today, April 24th, by the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life, as required by the General Statutes (Art. 82 §2).
Through the intercession St. Vincent Pallotti, we ask God's blessing on Donatella and Fr. Gilberto so that guided by the Holy Spirit they may work together fruitfully and joyfully to build up the Kingdom of Christ in the Church and the world. Heartfelt thanks and every blessing to the outgoing Vice President, Fr. Frank Donio SAC for his years of dedicated service on the GCC and as Vice President.
This congregation is a Pious Association founded by Rev. Fr. Tomy Churathil SAC and Rev. Mother Chandrika, on September 8, 2002; following the spirituality and life of St. Vincent Pallotti. The best source to find out more about this young yet thriving community is from Mother herself.
Our Motto: “Burning with love to heal the brokenhearted”; in the same magnitude of St. Vincent Pallotti. The Cenacle always leads us to the mission of spiritual animation and of communion with the Church, the body of Christ, and the whole creation.
Our Charism: Our charism is to strive towards one’s own renewal and to work for the perennial renewal of the people of God, especially the clergy, religious and laity, after the example of Mary, Queen of the Cenacle.
Our Vision: Led and directed by the Holy Spirit to build up cenacle communities of faith and love which heal, renew, and sustain individual persons, families and groups. Jesus is the Apostle of the Eternal Father and every baptized person is an apostle of Jesus Christ. The CSSH want to promote this co-responsibility of all the baptized to be apostles of Jesus the Apostle to carry on the mission He has entrusted to His Church.
Being in the Cenacle: To be in the Cenacle means to be in union- we want to be together, to be one heart and mind, to be like Mary, an extraordinary apostle, and to be an apostle of Jesus Christ. Every baptized person is called to be an apostle. Remaining in the Cenacle we experience the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, which in turn helps us to go out as empowered apostles to make more to build up communities of faith and love, bringing out more co-operation and collaboration in the Church, in order to carry out the work of the Catholic Apostolate.
At present, four of our Sisters are at the service of the Peruvian people in collaboration with the Immaculate Conception Province, USA, and St. Paul Province, Brazil, and other Sisters in six provinces in India. We have 17 perpetually professed Sisters, 24 Junior Sisters, 15 pre-novices 10 Postulants and 24 candidates at different levels of their formation.
There is also much communion and co-responsibility with Priests and Religious, families, and the young people of our time. We preach a 40 day retreat for religious, and the Sisters are involved in regular visits to families. In most of our communities we also have 24/7 Adoration.
As the days pass by, the Cenacle spirituality and the spirituality of St. Vincent Pallotti become more and more clear to us. We learn that the whole universe is waiting to become one with the Blessed Trinity.

After the building of the new Early Years facility, the old Children’s Centre building was demolished and the site left as an unusable patch of land in a school already short of space for children to play, especially in wet weather.
We embraced the celebratory spirit of the Nation and joined in with celebrations of our own for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. On the day, we made replica crowns, bounced on a castle and enjoyed some traditional British cakes. It was certainly a day which was enjoyed by all and one we won’t forget in a hurry!
In March, Year 4 and 5 pupils took part in a project to make and launch minature rockets. And to finish off, we strapped a camera to one of the rockets….
Foundation Stage children have been learning about ‘people who help us’. The children were very lucky to have a visit from the police. They had lots of fun trying on a policeman’s uniform and going inside a police car.
We had successful world book day and the children loved dressing up as their favourite book characters. Children had the opportunity to share their favourite stories with each other.
Year 1& 2 visited Tynemouth Blue Reef Aquarium. The children had the opportunity to explore sea creatures and extend their knowledge. Both classes throughly enjoyed the visit and were able to make an information booklet about sea creatures.

For audiences that remember Red Skelton, Tom Mullica's performance will be not only a sweet reminiscence of a time gone by, but a reminder that comedy can be clean and still be brilliant. Mullica, a close friend to the late Red Skelton, expertly portrays the comedian and his host of lovable characters including Klem Kadiddlehopper, Gertrude & Heathcliff, the mean whittle kid, Freddy the Freeloader, and many more. He seems to magically transform himself into Skelton live on stage complete with rubber-faced pantomimes, ageless sight gags, obscenity-free jokes, and his legion of memorable characters.
Mullica perfectly recreates Skelton's gawky and silent open-mouthed laugh, the easy midwestern drawl, and his characters' flirtations with anger and frustration. He never breaks character, ad-libbing with the audience as Skelton and introducing each of Skelton's classic routines. Skelton's flair for physical comedy is best reflected in Mullica's reprise of 'Guzzler's Gin,' a Skelton favorite skit in which a thirsty TV pitchman gets positively pig-eyed. Mullica handles Skelton's voices, mannerisms, and expressions with the skill of a veteran actor who cares deeply about his subject.
Mullica was a long-time admirer of Red Skelton and became a good friend for about the last decade of the comic genius' life. Skelton caught Mullica's act in his Atlanta club and decided to mentor the younger comic, making him realize that laughter could come from deeper source than shock value. He made him a promise that if he cleaned his act up, he could use his material. Mullica has turned that material into a one-man tribute to his idol, and by all accounts, the similarities between the two men are astonishing. Mullica has Skelton down to a science, from characterization to movements to vocal technique, breathing life into the comedy that made America laugh for decades. For both audiences that remember Red Skelton and those who are new to his comic genius, Red Skelton: A Performance Tribute by Tom Mullica will be an amazing afternoon of laughter and fun.

As the name suggests, Spyware is a type of spying software.
Specifically, Spyware is a kind of malware that is deployed to keep track of activities on a computer and gather information without the user’s consent.
The main motive of a spyware program is to monitor activity and send it to the developer (hacker) discreetly. It works completely in the background without the user noticing its presence on their computer system.
Spyware usually gathers information about the demographics of a user and their behavior on the internet by tracking the webpages they have visited for advertising purposes. This data, once collected by a hacker, is then sold to companies that can use it for marketing purposes.
However, this problem can go deeper. Spyware can also steal personal and confidential information like credit card details or a user’s online account passwords.
It violates the end user’s privacy and opens the door for potential abuse benefitting the hacker.
How Do You Know If Spyware Is On Your Computer?
Spyware generally does not make any kind of visual indication that would notify its presence to an unsuspecting user. It works behind the scenes without anyone noticing and carries out its job faithfully.
A slowdown in a computer’s speed, as the additional hidden program (spyware) is using up the system’s resources.
An increase in internet bandwidth usage, as spyware transmits information over the internet.
A reduction in the battery life of laptops or other mobile devices.
While these are probable signs, they do not necessarily confirm that spyware is on your computer.
Antivirus programs are often bypassed by sophisticated spyware programs, so they are not always reliable.
Running an anti-spyware program is the best way to detect spyware on a computer. And you can try out a proven anti-malware solution like MalwareFox, which is designed to detect and remove spyware.
It is a complete anti-malware suite and its spyware scanner can locate – and wipe out – any spy program hiding under the hood.
How Does Spyware Get Installed?
Spyware often comes bundled with a free software product. It is a hidden component that gets installed along with another legitimate program.
They can even come attached to an ebook or a movie downloaded from untrusted sources.
What Are Some Spyware Examples?
FinFisher is a type of spyware that made it into the news a few years ago. It gets installed as a fake software update, a fake email attachment, or through a flaw in a software program. It was presented as software to fight against crime, however, it turned out that it was a criminal in disguise itself. It reportedly tapped Skype calls and monitored computer usage without a user’s consent.
Spyware could also come as a rootkit like Look2me, which hides inside system-critical processes and starts up even when a computer is operating in safe mode. Since there is no visible program process running, stopping it can be impossible for most anti-spyware programs.
MalwareFox is an anti-malware solution that has been proven effective in such kind of malware.
Before you try to remove spyware from your system, it is essential to know what is hiding beneath the surface.
Open the Windows task manager to check running processes.
Scroll through the list of program processes, and look out for any suspicious activity.
If found, right click on it and go to the suspicious process’ location.
Delete the file responsible for running the spyware program.
That’s one way you can get rid of a spyware program, but you would need to have an owl’s eye and some knowledge about Windows’ processes to remove it effectively. Otherwise, you will end up deleting some legitimate programs or simply not finding something dangerous that’s still lurking within the system.
In such case, you should use tried and tested anti-malware programs to detect and remove spyware from your computer. They have a database of known spyware in cyberspace and even have the ability to detect unknown ones by analyzing their behavior.
As I said, since it is difficult to notice their presence, a user often finds out too late that there is spyware hiding in their computer system. So, prevention is a must.
Ensure that your browser, operating system, and software have the latest updates and security patches.
Set your browser security and privacy settings to the highest levels.
Use extreme caution if you’re using file-sharing sites frequently.
Don't click on pop-up ads.
Use Anti-virus and Anti-Spyware programs.
That sounds scary, it’s not like I have anything to hide but the thought of someone spying on me is sending chills down my spine.
I actually don’t care at all, a hacker could see all of my messages and all of my fetishes and I still wouldn’t give a damn about it, why should I care anyway?
Alright maybe you don’t care about people reading your messages, but what about your credit card details? Are you willing to risk something like that? I definitely won’t, cheers.
Spyware is nothing to laugh at, especially if you’re someone who is getting paid online, you could lose a fortune by it.
I noticed that I had a spyware through my task manager, a process was taking up CPU usage and it the name looked suspicious (something random like fsfhlsfj). And I was right, MalwareFox marked this process as something dangerous and removed it.
This is the only post in this blog where only woman seem to comment, I wonder if that’s a coincidence hahaha.
It’s not a coincidence dear, far from it.
What does that even mean? Woman are scary creatures.

I had just re-registered on ‘The Pink Sofa‘ (a womens’ dating site) for the first time in years and Susie for the very first time when, within days, she found me. She messaged me to say that our profiles showed many shared interests and things in common, and that I should give hers a read. So I did, and I was blown away. Although we lived only 2 or 3 miles apart, I don’t think we would have ever found each other without internet dating. We went on our first date a few days later (although we still argue about the actual date!) but I do agree that it felt so right.
Within 5 months we had bought a house and moved in together. I became step parent to her twin boys Sonny and Ollie (then aged 8), had adopted a rescue dog within 7 months and were engaged within 10. That was 6 years ago in August and we have faced challenges, but it’s been a wonderful and happy adventure so far.
Lindsey: I think I knew before we even actually met in person. Susie was the first person I ever came out to as gender fluid/non-binary, and I knew from her response that she would be able to love me for who I really am, and I knew that I could not let her pass me by. I told her within a week that we would get married and she didn’t run away.
Susie: For me, it was probably when Linz offered to shop for me and bring me some fish fingers, when I had a house full of children and only a box of potato waffles! I just knew then that we would make a great team. My problems were her problems and Linz always manages to make the ordinary seem like an adventure, and I was so ready for an adventure!
Susie: The proposal was a surprise but it was perfectly low key and simple, just how Linz knew I would like it. It was my birthday, the boys were there, I was sat on the bed wearing my PJ’s with a cuppa in my hand. Linz got down on one knee at the side of the bed and presented me with a necklace saying “Marry Me”. She and my sons had had the necklace made for me on the day she asked them for their permission to marry me.
Lindsey: We hadn’t been together very long when we were watching an episode of ‘One Born Every Minute’ which featured a lovely, if quite unconventional, straight couple. The guy, who was pretty quirky, was explaining how he never thought he would meet the right woman. However, when his now wife came along, he realised that “every pan has its lid” and that resonated so strongly with me. I knew that Susie was my lid and I was hers.
We both work in healthcare related jobs where wearing a ring is impractical for hygiene reasons, so the idea of each wearing a little pan and lid around our necks just seemed so fittingly symbolic and they get a lot of curious attention. We loved them so much!
What made you choose The Workshop to make your Wedding Pans?
I spent many hours trawling the internet and calling antiques shops, but my quest to find two matching miniature saucepans proved fruitless, so it occurred to me that we could have some custom made. It was important to me that we kept things local where possible and I had passed by The Workshop many times, seen Rob beavering away at his bench, been intrigued by his work and impressed by the beauty of the pieces in your window.
When we did come in for an initial consultation, the warmth of your welcome, and the enthusiasm and genuine excitement you had for the commission completely won us over. Jenny’s drawings, which were based on a real pan that had been owned by her grandmother, added an extra layer of special and Rob’s work exceeded our expectations. The fact that we would come to count you amongst our friends was a lovely and unexpected bonus. Thank you Jenny and Rob for being part of our journey!

For today's meal prep, we're channeling Sarah in the early 2000's with a vegan bowl! I've always been a committed omnivore, but back when I was in uni, I was super into vegetarian food. I would often visit Shakahari, Tofu Shop, and the Co-Op at Melbourne Uni for that particular type of hearty hippie food - brown rice, dense spelt rolls, vegetables, tofu, tempeh, miso, and tahini. So much tahini.
We start with a base of brown rice, and top it with cumin-roast sweet potato, broccoli with chilli, fried tempeh, and zingy cashew cream. We've got your protein, your fibre, healthy fats and your greens! Let's do this thing.
So, tempeh. I'm a big fan. It's an Indonesian soy product - basically it's fermented soy beans, compressed into a dense cake. I know this isn't the most enticing description, but it is so delicious! I love it fried, when the crunchy edges contrast against the dense and slightly mealy inside.
I got this brand because it was the only one available at my local supermarket, and it turned out pretty good. Any recommendations for a good brand of tempeh? Hit me up in the comments.
This is what it looks like. There are a few ways to cook it, but I like slicing it into thin slices (about 3-5 millimetres) and frying it.
And here are the bowls! I gave the sweet potato my usual treatment of roasting it in cumin and olive oil. For the broccoli, I chopped it into florets, boiled it briefly and then tossed it through a little olive oil with some chilli flakes, salt and pepper. Easy!
You see all the elements I have so far are kinda dry, and I wanted something moist to bring it all together. If I were eating this at home, something like a miso soup (vegetable stock rather than dashi if you wanna keep it vegan) or a coconut-milk based curry would be perfect, but I wanted something that would be easy to transport to work without spilling. Enter cashew cream.
I'd never made a nut-based sauce before, but saw a base recipe for cashew sauce on Pinch of Yum and was immediately intrigued by the idea. You simply soak the cashews to soften them, then blend them with some water, garlic and salt to make a creamy sauce. I used less liquid than Pinch of Yum, making it more of a cream than a sauce - I haz issues with drizzling white liquid over my food - and flavoured it with ginger, soy, lime juice and chilli. Not only is it wonderfully creamy, but the zingy flavours really complement the plain brown rice, and the earthiness of the tempeh and sweet potato. Winner!
Here are the recipes! Enjoy.
Chop 300 grams tempeh into 3-5 millimetre slices. Heat some vegetable oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the slices for a minute or so on each side or until golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper.
Preheat the oven to 220C. Peel 1 large sweet potato and cut into 2 cm chunks. Drizzle with a little olive oil, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, salt and pepper. Place into an oven tray and bake for 15 minutes, or until softened and slightly browned around the edges.
Chop one head of broccoli into florets. Put a saucepan of salted water on to boil. Once at a rolling boil, add the broccoli florets. Boil for 2 minutes, or until bright green and tender crisp. Drain the broccoli and rinse under cold water. Drain again. Place the broccoli in a bowl, add 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, 1 big pinch of chilli flakes and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
Place 1 cup cashews in a bowl and cover with water. Soak for 2 hours. Drain and rinse the cashews.
Place the soaked cashews in a food processor with 1/2 cup water, a pinch of salt, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, a pinch of chilli powder and the juice of half a lime. Grate in 1 clove garlic and a similar sized piece of ginger. Whizz until all the ingredients are smoothly combined. Taste and add more flavourings to your liking. Add more water if you prefer it thinner.
Place 1 cup brown rice and 2 cups water into a saucepan with a tight-fitting lid. (You're supposed to rinse rice before you cook it, but I never do). Bring to the boil over a high heat, then turn the heat to low and clamp on the lid. Cook for 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to sit, covered, for 15 minutes. Remove the lid and stir the rice to fluff it up.
Man this makes vegan food sounds so tasty! Hubby grew up on tempeh and doesn't like it but he loves tofu so I'm sure I could sub it!

The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard explains: Heat and air flow are the two main ingredients of a well-functioning clothes dryer. Heat is produced by electricity or natural gas. The dryer vent system is responsible for producing air flow. Without air flow, the dryer labors harder to do its job, consuming more energy and overworking to the point of breaking down or causing a fire.
The Holland Michigan Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard says clothes dryers must eliminate the moisture recovered during the heating of damp clothing. The moisture is held in the warm air produced in the dryer as humidity and is normally expelled to the outdoors through the dryer vent. If this air cannot be adequately removed, poor dryer performance and increased energy expense will be the result. The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard has the solution to make your clothes dryer operate more efficiently.
The moisture can also condense into pools of water in the dryer vent, eventually leaking out. Any moisture accumulated inside the dryer vent system is a sign of poor venting which should be looked into by the Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard.

YOUR DRYER VENTS ARE ALL-IMPORTANT: There are many things that contribute to the proper operation of a clothes dryer. The dryer vent system is perhaps the most critical. The dryer vent cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard describes a dryer's functions and how the dryer vent system plays a part.
This moisture can also condense into pools of water in the dryer vent, eventually leaking out. Any moisture accumulation inside the dryer ducting is a sign of poor venting which should be looked into. Schedule the Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard for a complete dryer vent inspection.
HEAT: The heat is another important function of a dryer. Many current dryer models have a 'one-time', non-resettable, thermal fuse or safety.

Once this happens, the dryer will no longer heat and will require the part to be replaced by the dryer vent cleaning Holland MichiganWizard to correct the condition.

Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Get the Lint Out!
Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan is Important! Most people have their furnaces cleaned regularly; however, very few people realize the importance of dryer vent cleaning Holland Michigan service. According to the National Fire Protection Association over 15,000 dryer fires are reported each year with failure to clean dryer vents being the number one cause. Believe it or not, your clothes dryer is more likely to cause a fire than your furnace or stove! The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard recommends annual dryer vent inspections and regular dryer vent cleaning service.
Besides being a fire hazard, poorly vented gas dryers can be a carbon monoxide hazard. The dryer vent system on gas dryers removes gas by-products, like carbon monoxide from your home. Let the Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard perform a complete inspection of your dryer vent system to provide peace of mind that your dryer is operating safely and efficiently.
When a dryer vent system is clogged with lint, air flow is restricted, so the dryer works harder and uses more energy. This creates higher utility bills and a greater chance of the appliance breaking down. Appliance repairs and/or replacement can be expensive. You can prolong the life of your clothes dryer with proper dryer vent cleaning and maintenance. The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard provides professional dryer vent services for homes and businesses in his community.
A dryer fire is caused by lint build-up which restricts airflow and leads to overheating. Dryers produce a lot of lint and simply cleaning the lint screen is not enough. Though the lint filter catches most of the lint, some will escape into the dryer cabinet and the dryer vent system. The dryer ducts remove lint and moisture from your clothes; the moist lint rarely makes it to the vent outside of your home. It can stick to the sides of the ducts where it builds up and eventually dries to a hard paste. This hard paste attracts more sticky lint, eventually creating a blockage which will cause a fire. Regular service by the Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard will keep your dryer operating safely and efficiently.
Underwriters Laboratories is an independent product safety certification organization that has been testing products for safety for over a century. The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard will inspect your dryer vent system to be sure it meets UL Safety standards in your community.
In the past most clothes dryers were in the basement, on an outside wall, with a relatively short, straight vent to the outdoors. Today many newer homes are built with the laundry area located away from an outside wall, near bedrooms on the second floor, where much laundry originates. Though convenient, this means dryer vents are much longer and contain some elbows and bends where lint can accumulate. They’re also harder to reach therefore more difficult to keep cleaned. The ideal dryer vent system is short and straight. The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard can make sure these systems operate safely and efficiently and he has special tools for cleaning the most difficult areas to access.
Dryer ducts should be made of rigid metal, not the flexible foil or vinyl type that was used in the old days. The flexible vinyl type of tubing crushes easily and restricts air-flow. The Dryer Vent Installation Holland MichiganWizard professionally installs rigid metal dryer vent systems in homes and commercial buildings.
The Dryer Vent Inspection Holland Michigan Wizard does not use sheet metal screws when attaching multiple sections of vent pipe together. They use foil tape instead to eliminate protuberances that cause obstructions where lint can accumulate, eventually leading to a restriction which hampers dryer venting and allows lint to build up.
The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard says the dryer vent screen should be washed thoroughly with warm soapy water every few months to remove residue build up caused by dryer sheets. It is actually possible for the lint screen to have so much build-up on it that it will hold water! This definitely restricts air flow and causes the dryer to take more than one cycle to properly dry a load of clothes.
Birds have been known to build nests in dryer vents which prevent lint from escaping. Bees, wasps and hornets nests have also been found in dryer vents. The Dryer Vent Cleaning Holland Michigan Wizard recommends annual dryer vent cleaning and regular inspections to be sure the dryer vent system is free of clogs.

Dryer vent installation, though simple in theory, can be a serious fire hazard if it is not done right. Proper dryer vent installation in Holland Michigan requires understanding the purpose and function of your dryer vent system. Forced heat produced by natural gas or electricity is blown on your laundry as it tumbles in your dryer. This moist heat must escape through the dryer exhaust ducts to the dryer vent outdoors.
An improperly installed dryer vent system can restrict airflow and cause your dryer to labor excessively as it does its job. A poorly installed dryer vent system can lead to substantially higher energy bills and pre-mature death of your clothes dryer. Here are some tips from the Dryer Vent Installation Holland MichiganWizard.
The Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard only installs dryer vents of rigid material about 4 inches in diameter. The old flexible foil or vinyl tubing do not meet current dryer vent installation safety standards.
Dryer lint will build up in the dryer vent system over time. To reduce lint build-up, the Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard makes sure the dryer duct is smooth inside. He joins sections of ductwork with foil tape, not screws that protrude to the inside which can catch and trap lint.
The Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard says the law requires all clothes dryers to be vented to the outdoors. If you have a gas dryer, the dryer vent system is responsible for removing gas by-products, like carbon monoxide, from your home.
The Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard says the dryer vent tube should be installed with as few turns as possible and the shorter the run, the better. The longer the dryer duct, the harder the dryer works to force the hot air to the vent outside.
The Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard says to use straps to support the duct so that there are no low points for lint to collect and build up. Use a level to set horizontal sections with a slight fall to prevent moisture from collecting.
The Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard is especially concerned with dryer vent systems in some newer homes, like those built with convenience for the homeowner in mind, without enough consideration to dryer vent safety and efficiency. The laundry area is now located near the center of the home, upstairs between bedrooms where most dirty laundry originates. Now the distance from the dryer to the vent outside is considerably longer. Service by the dryer vent installation Holland Michigan Wizard is most critical for this type of system.
According to the Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard it is more difficult to push air through a longer vent because the air inside has weight and volume. The average clothes dryer can handle venting through about 20 feet of venting pipe before having any difficulty. The motor lacks the strength needed to push the air much further as the weight increases and the flow slows down.
The Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard is familiar with a variety of dryer vent configurations and he knows how to make all dryer vent systems safe and efficient.
Are you sure your dryer vent system is properly installed? If you have any doubts, you need to call The Dryer Vent Installation Holland Michigan Wizard for a complete inspection. The fee for this type of service quickly pays for itself as it eliminates all the problems listed above.

Author Oana takes on our daily lives and experiences from a very sarcastic humorous perspective.
It is the fifth day of my friend Miko walking around with a swollen, half-closed eye. I rush to express my concern and I offer him a ride to my primary healthcare provider, an excellent physician with many years of experience. He declines politely. I don’t want to be too invasive, besides I am not quite the overly maternal type and he is a grown man of forty five. Is there anything I can help with? There sure is. He wants me to measure the distance between the top of the swelling and its base. I try to squeeze in a line containing the word “doctor” but his stern one-eyed gaze delivers the response, “I asked you to help me measure, I didn't ask for advice.” I grab the tape and measure the height of his eyelid volcano: 1 and ½ millimeters.
“Hmmm.” He says, head tilted backwards.
Now, I am not a rookie to ask stupid questions such as what “hmmm” is supposed to mean. I am beyond that feminine naiveté. Instead, I join him in approval, “hmmm.” I know he won’t seek medical care until the other eye is completely closed as well and he can no longer watch football.
The story is simple and many a man can relate to it. In Miko’s case, it started with a little grain on the eyelid. Miko’s “inner man” rubbed it vigorously in a childish attempt to remove it which only caused more inflammation. Day after day he watched the unfriendly little fellow grow bigger and bigger. Any other individual in his place would have panicked. Not him, though. His own pain became a scientific case study.
Another friend and coworker of mine got a skin infection. I don’t know what it was or how it happened, what I do know is that the minor bump on his forearm grew larger and larger, redder and redder until his arm looked like it was inflatable. Only then, he agreed to be rushed to the hospital.
Before he landed in the emergency room, he took the time to write down valuable information using his healthy hand while he watched his arm swell up to five times its normal size.
An engineer at heart and scientist as well, he would measure the diameter of the bump day after day carefully, meticulously writing down any changes in skin color, texture et cetera. A tattoo of concentric circles of various colors held the information as to how the redness spread in time. Folks, we’re talking charts, maps and measurements here.
“Hey, see how soft it is here, around the red spot?” he would smile at me seeking approval.
“Yeah, what did the doctor say?” I would test the waters with caution.
“How would you know that, are you a physician?” he would frown upon my lack of support.
My coworker’s hard work paid off. The doctor who admitted him into the hospital offered him a position as a personal assistant after reading his notes.
Men don’t go to the doctor because they love to be “in charge” of their own health and push their pain limits. They need to know what is going on. Also, there is always a miraculous remedy that needs to be tried out before seeking medical advice. Finally, they always think the wound or the condition is not important enough to make it worth a visit to the physician’s office. Because it is not “manly” to go see the doctor unless your arm is falling off – literally.
The only thing we can do is assisting them with their measurements and monitoring needs without commenting. Something like a secretary who is always ready to pull out a miniature measuring tape, a notebook and to follow instructions when needed.
And last but not least, always remember: this doesn't work both ways. How many of us females have been prompted by men to seek immediate medical care for a pimple?
Born in Bucharest, Romania, Oana lived twenty years under the grotesque dictatorial regime of Ceausescu. After the fall of the communism in 1989 she studied languages at the University in Bucharest, then received her Master’s at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. English is her third language.
She lives in Arizona, where she continues to dedicate most of her time to her animals and to writing.
Her first book, The Healings was released in November 2010.

"A tenth of a million is a hundred thousand."
Translation:Dekono de miliono estas cent mil.
So, a millionth is "milionoono"? or "mili"?
Why is centmil wrong? It follows the same pattern as kvardek or sescent.
Probably because tens and hundreds can only have a number up to 9 in front of them, but thousands can have a number up to 999 in front of them.
So 452000 = kvarcent kvindek du mil, not kvarcent kvindek dumil or kvarcentkvindekdumil.
Great! It's the first time I notice that. It's now logical and understandable.

Yes, trying to figure out WHY the connection failed is trickier. I think you are right that Safari pings an IP (to exclude DNS problems) and then looks at the response. A ping that has no route will report something like Destination Unreachable as opposed to timeout. On my Apple terminal, if I ping a bogus DNS name, I get cannot resolve <hostname>: unknown host. If I ping a bogus IP, I get a timeout. If I disable all network adapters I get a timeout AND sendto: No route to host. Windows probably does something similar.
I suppose you could simply ping through a shell and then peruse the responses.
> Bob of course you’re right - in my particular case, anyway, I just want to know if I can access me chosen server or not.
> But one could certainly imagine programs that would want to know if they were wasting their time offering their users a broader internet access - I mean any program that allows the user to specify addresses (like a browser does) would want more of an “is there or isn’t there?” approach. On my Mac, the Apple browser Safari can announce “you are not connected to the internet”. Maybe it just pings a trusted source and waits for a reasonable time for the reaction.
> Anyway what I noticed in my little experiment was that the reaction of the script when the internet wasn’t available was very rapid (certainly less than half a second), which means that just trying to get the file and then looking for an error response would probably be OK for a human user, since there is no prolonged wait.
> As you see, I am reluctant to do anything that’s at all complicated!
