Two women in their 30s — Reshma Nishanth and Shanila Rajesh from Kunoor — en route to Lord Ayyappa temple in Sabarimala were forced to turn back by protesters near Neelimala on Wednesday morning. This comes just days after two others became the first to offer prayers at the shrine in centuries. Reshma Nishanth and Shanila Sajesh, covered almost half of the 5.5-kilometre trek to the temple but were intercepted by angry devotees in the morning.
Dressed in men’s clothes, they left early in the morning to dodge protesters and started trekking at 5am, and they said they came after police promised protection.
They managed to trek for some time but were identified and encircled by the protesters as they walked up. Police then arrested five of the protesters and the women continued trekking for some time.
They were stopped in Neelimala as large numbers of protesters lay on the path leading to the temple to stop them from going further. The drama continued for two hours and police removed them forcibly.
Police pleaded helplessness as the situation turned tense, saying it was beyond their control and took the women to Pambha, the base camp, after they were blocked.
Five persons who had blocked the women have been arrested. The women were taken to safety at the base camp in Pamba by the police in a vehicle. They are part of a nine-member group who were on their way to the temple. They said they had already completed their 41-day penance before embarking on the trek.
Activist Rahul Easwaran backed the protesters who stopped the women who tried to “intrude into #Sabarimala”.
Huge protests erupt for #SaveSabarimala ..
State’s temple minister Kadakampally Surendran said preventing the women, was “really deplorable”. Surendran also said that the government did not want to create a scene so police took utmost restraint in handling the protesters.
“We don’t need any certificate from Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi whose party is on a mission to annihilate people in the name of the cow,” said the minister.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi had on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on Kerala government on its handling of the Sabarimala controversy, saying the Communists didn’t respect India’s culture and spiritual traditions. He also slammed the Congress for taking multiple stands on the issue.
Modi hit out at the state government led by chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan and the opposition, and said both the fronts were two sides of the same coin. “We know that the Communists do not respect India’s culture, history, and spirituality,” Modi said at a public meeting in Kollam.
The Supreme Court in September last year allowed women of all ages to worship Lord Ayyappa at the Sabarimala shrine, overturning a traditional ban on women of menstrual age (between 10 and 50) from entering the temple.
On January 2, two women in their 40s became the first to worship at the shrine on Wednesday, triggering unrest in many parts of Kerala. One of them, Kanaka Durga, was attacked by her mother-in-law on her return home on Monday. She was admitted in a hospital at Perinthalmanna in Malappuram district.

Seafood New Zealand chief executive, Tim Pankhurst said the industry relies on trade, as does wider New Zealand.
“We exported $1.8 billion of seafood last year and free and open access to markets is critical for the industry.
“The ratification of TPP by the New Zealand government sends a strong signal that we continue to support the agreement despite the withdrawal of the United States.
“There are still very valuable markets for New Zealand among the remaining TPP countries and ratification is a show of faith in a future agreement that will be of benefit to the seafood industry.
“We commend the Minister and Cabinet for continuing to support exporters with access to global markets,” said Pankhurst.

Family-run construction firm Seddon has pledged their support to the Greater Manchester’s Mayor’s Homelessness Fund with a show-stopping firewalk.
The event, which took place at the company’s Bolton headquarters last Friday, marked the launch of Seddon’s year-long commitment to raising vital funds for the charity.
Siblings Jonathan Seddon, CEO of Seddon; Jamie Seddon, managing director of Seddon Developments; and Nicola Hodkinson, director of business services, walked barefoot over red-hot wood embers to kick off the company’s Ministry of Fun initiative, which is a calendar of fundraising events.
The trio led a 50-strong team over the 800-degrees Fahrenheit heat, with Dave Bagley – managing director of charity Urban Outreach – also braving the searing temperatures. Also in attendance was the Mayor of Bolton, Councillor Elaine Sherrington.
The Homelessness Fund joins the Christie NHS Foundation Trust as one of Seddon’s chosen charities for 2019, with the company having already raised more than £800,000 for the renowned cancer centre over the last 22 years.
Now, Seddon is rallying its team – including those at head office and on-site – to back Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham’s pledge to eliminate the need for rough sleeping across the city region by 2020.
Among Seddon’s plans to raise cash for the Fund and the Christie are events such as an 85-mile bike ride, the Yorkshire Three Peaks and a zipwire challenge.
Tim Heatley, chair of at the Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity, said: “Seddon is well known for its creative and inclusive fundraising activities.
“The firewalk is a great example of how businesses like Seddon can raise funds for the Greater Manchester Mayor’s charity, whilst also raising awareness among its colleagues and customers.
Nicola Hodkinson, business services director at Seddon, added: “We’re thrilled to be partnering with these two incredible organisations throughout 2019 to help raise awareness and funds for all the important work they do.

I went into reading this, knowing I would love it. In fact, I bought it months ago. I think it was out in February of this year. And I’ve had it on my Kindle since then, saving it. Saving it to savor it.
I really love this series. It stays good. On so many levels. Great quality fantasy writing, characters who evolve and respect each other. I’ve blogged about it here before. Over the series, characters grow and change, navigating both family relationships and chosen-found family, with a remarkable compassion and humanness. Bad things happen, mistakes happen. Evil needs battling. The world needs saving. Parts and scenes of the books make me cry, or make me need a hug. Or both.
This isn’t a series you can pick up out of sequence, because of how the story evolves.
Through even the worst moments of scariness, loneliness, of devastating heartbreak these characters endure… there is compassion, there is warmth, there is a willingness to make the hard choice if it is the right choice, even if it is the terrifying choice. There is power, and there are Powers that Be lending both a spirituality and a universal scope… but more to the point, there is ordinariness. There are wizards and magic fighting battles for the fate of the universe. But they’re also having hugs and family dinners and laughter and movie nights, and first love and wonder. I like that mix. I like that heart.
Could I pick a favorite book in the series? Not really. No more than I could pick one character as a favorite character, or even a main character. It’s an ensemble cast, of family, chosen and born.
I have read and reread the Young Wizards books. All nine. Now, ten.
And I could see myself doing it again.
I need more books like this.

I have a question to what this part is, and what type of plug I need to get for it, The wire has two insulated wireds within a bigger insulation, I just had to solder myself the wires together. Position is above the starter motor on a 2.0L Pinto engine in a 1979 mk2.
oil pressure switch, or an oil pressure gauge sender?
I think its an oil pressure gauge sender, for an aftermarket guage (like VDO) rather than just having the low pressure warning light.
Instead of having a thin oil line connecting the sender to the guage, this is electronic version:so one terminal will be connected to 12V, and the other (possibly centre terminal) would be the signal going to the back of the gauge.
If you don't have one, it's a good thing to fit, good to know your oil pressure.
Usually you need the correct gauge and sender as a kit.
That helps out but the thing is there is one cable with two(red and black) wires that i'm fairly certain go into this Oil pressure switch/gauge.
The cable runs in the loom along the cables that lead to the starter motor and engine Earth.
see the yellow/black and green/yellow cables that are on the starter motor below my hand.
Pretty sure the oil pressure switch you have pictured will have a normal open and normal closed circuit within the switch.
Take an ohm meter and check continuity between two of the terminals at a time, the two terminals that are oriented the same way are probably the signal terminals the other one will be a common.
The wires in your harness will need to be connected to the common and the terminal that measures closed to the common on your meter.
The oil pressure light should now illuminate with the ignition on engine not running.
Thanks heaps everyone, finally being able to figure out what parts are what really helps me out.
I have a Ohms meter to check the continuity of the terminals, most likely will have to get new switch and gauge as I don't believe i have them stashed away in all the parts boxes.
The dash you have pictured only has an oil pressure light so only needs an oil pressure switch to work. Work out the correct terminals as mentioned above, connect it up and you should be in business.
To test if the wire is the correct one , have a someone in the car with the ign on but not start and with the wire do a quick but solid earthing to the bare metal on the engine somewhere, the oil light should come on while the wire is earthed.
I should know the wire colors as I had to do a full strip and trace of my loom not long ago. Temp wire is white/red tracer and starter wires are usually black, black/yellow maybe..

Eduardo Williams's latest film reads like Linklater's Slacker for the global post-Internet age.
Work and communication have both evolved a lot in the last century, but have we evolved as a species? Go to a crowded place sometime—a shopping mall, a public square, whatever—and watch the crowd with this question in mind. Though the people around you are likely communicating in some fashion or another, do they ultimately seem disconnected? Do they look “natural” in the relationship they’re sharing with personal electronics? Do the things your fellow humans do for money, generally speaking, seem to provide them with a clear, non-abstract purpose?
While there have been a great deal of socially conscious movies to gain popular traction in the last year or two (a trend that will surely only ramp up in our current political hellscape), few have bothered to address these specific, but broad, socio-philosophical concerns with the curiosity—and ultimately ambivalence—appropriate to the subject. Sure, there was Ex Machina (an endearingly ham-fisted dystopian warning flare) or Her (perhaps too hard welded to Hollywood storytelling modes to really get at the complexities of the subject), not to mention the techno-alarmism of Black Mirror or the multi-layered explorations of Werner Herzog‘s Internet documentary Lo and Behold, Reveries of the Connected World, but all ask big questions in big ways, and with relatively little ambiguity.
If one movie in the last year has gotten down (quite literally) in the dirt to examine modern humanity’s complex relationship with work and communication, in all its tiny nuances, it’s El Auge del Humano (The Human Surge), the debut feature by Argentinian director Eduardo Williams, out now on DVD via Grasshopper Film. Williams trots the globe from Argentina to Mozambique to the Philippines to trail behind three post-industrial/post-Internet youths, stopping along the way to watch the complex dance of ants working and the maddening repetition of a factory making tablets. The film’s vignettes are connected by incidental, disconnected interactions between these geographically disparate characters, like a communication age update of Richard Linklater‘s Slacker. Though each section is shot using different equipment, each with its own distinct textures, the whole thing is unified by a decidedly raw look and feel, almost never distracting from its subjects by anything more than spartan cinematography and non-obtrusive sound design. Altogether, it’s an original, challenging look at what will likely be most important dilemma of our current century (at least, if the planet lasts that long): How do we keep stride in the march of technological progress without getting lost in the machine ourselves?
The funniest part is that, throughout The Human Surge, virtually nothing is said directly about that very dilemma. In fact, most of the dialogue jumps between mundane and surrealistic so readily that you might think you’re losing something in translation. Williams instead endeavors to let the characters’ actions do the talking, whether those actions be exposing themselves on a webcam for money or walking through an unfamiliar village asking virtually everyone on the street where one might find an Internet cafe. The characters are disengaged from their work and looking for an escape hatch; when the real world doesn’t offer ample distraction, they get bored and turn to their phones and computers, desperate for a connection.
When the real world doesn’t offer ample distraction, they get bored and turn to their phones and computers, desperate for a connection.
This description makes it sound like an anti-technology treatise, but The Human Surge is hardly that. Never does one get the feeling that Williams wishes to persuade the viewer to get “back to the land” or some such thing. It seems more that he just thinks it’s important to observe what is happening at this point in history, to study and learn from it.

Get modern look with applying contemporary house design – Contemporary house is one of a kind design that will make us get a home look clean, neat and smooth. This is a very minimalist design that takes into account the balance of lines, angles and geometric that is inside the house. We could say this is a modern style that will make us free from the house with a heavy and complicated design. We’re not going to get a room that tacky, crowded with a variety of patterns, and full.
We will find a home with a bandage color scheme is more eyes catching. Usually, the color of which can be applied to the design of this house is white, cream, brown, taupe, up to mauves. Although we are going to apply the color is neutral colors, but we will not get boring design because later we can add various other splash of color to make the house look more ‘alive’ and appealing. We can add a variety of color as an accent in a room in the house. As for the selection of the type of flooring, we will be faced with a number of options for contemporary homes ranging from ceramic, granite, up to slate.
Contemporary house design will bring us to the wall and the selection of furniture that has a neat and clear surface. We will apply a little ornament on the wall. As for the contemporary kitchen, the choice of material that is usually applied to the stainless steel, molded plywood, plastic, laminates and others. These materials have been easy in the care, maintenance, and of course have the choice of colors that can make a kitchen look more WOW and inviting. Contemporary kitchen design will make us get a kitchen that is easy to use, flexible, and neat. Functionality is a cherished thing if we want to implement a contemporary design.

Chances are you have heard that whole grains are good for the body. You probably think they are preferred over refined or processed grains because of the fiber, right? It turns out that it is more than just the dietary fiber that makes whole grains so healthy for the human body. But more about that later.
Fiber is the carbohydrate in grains that is not digested nor absorbed. Research has shown that one of the benefits of fiber is that it may lower cancer risk by diluting potential carcinogens (cancer-causing agents) and promoting growth of healthy digestive bacteria (1). Fiber comes mainly from the bran, the outer layer of the grain. There are two main types of dietary fiber: soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber forms a gel when mixed with liquid, which helps lower blood sugar and cholesterol. Oats and barley are rich in soluble fiber. Insoluble fiber increases the bulk and weight of stool, diluting harmful substances and speeding stool elimination from the body (2). Whole wheat is a prime example of a grain that is high in insoluble fiber.
In addition to the fiber, whole grains have hidden benefits that deserve our attention. In particular, whole grains are a source of important minerals and antioxidants. Research has shown that many of these vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals also help our bodies fight cancer. It is thought that a synergy of compounds work together to fight the oxidative free radicals associated with cancer growth. Manganese, for example, is a mineral found in whole grains that helps us handle oxidative stress. Selenium, a trace mineral also found in whole grains, helps the body prevent cell damage and is important for a healthy immune system. Then there’s the powerful antioxidant, Vitamin E (1).
Eating a variety of whole grains is the best way to get the broadest range of these powerful nutrients and antioxidants. Whole wheat is rich in vitamin E. Other whole grains that contain powerful antioxidants include buckwheat, kamut, oats, and quinoa. Buckwheat has high levels of the antioxidant rutin, which improves circulation and may prevents clogged arteries. Kamut, an ancient form of wheat, has an especially high protein and vitamin E content. Oats, meanwhile, have avenanthramides, a substance that helps protect the blood vessels from the bad LDL cholesterol. And quinoa has all of the essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source. Additionally, brown, red or black rice is an excellent source of selenium (3).
Have oatmeal or bran cereal for breakfast.
Choose whole grain bread products. Look for whole grains on the ingredient list, and try to get at least 3 grams dietary fiber per serving. There are wonderful whole grain bagels, buns, English muffins, pita pockets and flatbreads in the grocery.
Substitute half the white flour with whole wheat flour in baking recipes.
Replace 1/3 of the flour with oats in recipes.
Add barley, brown or wild rice to a favorite soup recipe.
Choose corn or corn/whole wheat blend tortillas.
Have quinoa, bulgur or wild rice as a side dish for variety. Use the leftover grains in salads.
Add wheat bran or uncooked oats to yogurt for a little crunch.
What is your favorite strategy for increasing whole grains?

The forces of regulation never give up. They constantly press for more government intervention in the media, more control and less freedom. This is the face of media reform, and I hope Republicans defeat SOPA as one aspect of it in the House.
The Democrats in the Senate beat us on Net Neutrality, and we now rely on the courts to act to protect private industry against that power grab. I hope we don’t have to do the same for SOPA. We truly can’t wait.
I’m especially interested to see whether House Democrats like Maxine Waters dance for their Hollywood (MPAA), Music (RIAA), Banking (MasterCard), Union (AFL-CIO), and Pharmaceutical (Pfizer) corporate masters and back SOPA, as much as I’d like to see Republicans stand up to these guys.
Credit to Google: they seem to be learning. Opposing SOPA, making good on its promise and re-opening the sources to Android, and of course Obama fan Eric Schmidt’s novocaine-fueled rant against big government are all great signs that the company really may be once burned, twice shy since the FTC came against them. Was Search Neutrality all it took to get Google to realize regulation hurts it more than it helps, or was Schmidt taking a lesser role with the firm also a factor?
I called it, I called it, I called it. Sprint got the iPhone and now Sprint’s phasing out unlimited data, just like the “evil” Verizon and AT&T. Clearly Sprint is benefiting greatly in the marketplace from the iPhone, and that popularity has an impact on its network. Just imagine how much it’s hurting T-Mobile that they can’t offer the phone.

China-Singapore based early stage venture firm Gobi has continued its focus on Southeast Asia after it invested $0.79 million (SG$1 million) in Singapore-based gaming firm Corous360.
The deal will see the games platform focus on taking advantage of the opportunities in Southeast Asia, while Gobi’s Kay-Mok Ku will join the board of the startup, which is owned by Web and IT-focused holding firm DeClout.
“The online game market in Southeast Asia is under-penetrated compared to China. Although the total population of Southeast Asia is almost half of China, its game market is less than one-tenth of China,” Ku says.
The Gobi general partner believes that there is scope for Corous360’s cloud-based publishing platform to grow thanks to the grow of casual online and mobile games – which have seen increased popularity thanks to rising smartphone sales in the region.
“We believe Corous360 is well-positioned to take advantage of this emerging trend,” he concludes.
Gobi maintains strong contacts within the tech and investor community in China, but it has invested in games firms in Southeast Asia and recently hired a Singapore-based executive, Shaw Soo Wei. Its past investments have included CIB which, as Tech In Asia reports, was sold to Asiasoft in March at a $13 million valuation, giving Gobi a 60 percent return on investment.
For its part, Corous360 is optimistic about the arrival of the new funding and CEO Winston Koh says that the new financing will “accelerate our region plans” as well as helping to improve the platform to make it more appealing to publishers, developers and gamers.
The service includes a direct-deployment platform to release titles into the market, as well as a one-stop payment system and community portal than allows gamers to chat and interact with each other.

Building on the worldwide success of their debut album ‘'You Me Bullets Love", the band has unleashed its trademark sound and set off on an extraordinary musical safari that leaves the listener with booty thoroughly shaken. "The Island of Dr Electrico" is a varied musical landscape, at times lush and tropical, at other times an impenetrable swamp teeming with all manner of surprises. Migrating seabirds have long flown thousands of extra miles avoid Dr Electrico's blighted isle, leaving him alone to experiment with dark beats, primitive synthesizers and the raw emotion of kidnapped souls. The result is a rich pallet of original sounds, from lonesome spaghetti to surf rock to spine-bending space disco, all overlaid with the voices of protagonists The Tiger and The Mysterious Lady. From their unlikely beginnings in the suburban wilds of Melbourne, Australia, The Bombay Royale have taken their unique sound to audiences in Europe, UK and the USA where their performances have been met with astonishment and critical acclaim.

To a wonderful staff and for a great place to shop for beautiful jewelry.
My husband purchased a custom made engagement ring from Towne Jewelers. He worked with Steve to make his image of my engagement ring one that he wanted and he knew I would love. I love my ring because it represents elegance, tradition, and thoughtfulness. The band was also custom made to match the engagement ring. It is so beautiful!!!
I also purchased my husband’s wedding band there as well since they had a great selection to choose from. The staff are warm, professional, funny, and have a genuine interest in pleasing their customers. Thank you!
This jeweler is amazing! We worked with Steve from the engagement rings to our wedding bands. Both my rings were custom and gorgeous. Steve made everything so easy for my fiancé. It was fun every time we went in there. Steve was very diligent and informative. He was sure to provide us with everything we wanted and was so kind throughout the entire process. We highly recommend their services!
The owners at Towne Jewelers took my idea of what I wanted and created the perfect ring. I am in love with it. I still stare at all day long 🙂 The owners are the nicest people in the world and are so willing to help!! Love them! Now go to them for all of your jewelry needs!
My fiancé bought my engagement ring from Michael. And Michael was kind enough to show him what he had and asked about what my fiancé had in mind. My fiancé said Michael took the time to show him the differences in diamonds and gave him the background on the diamond he chose for me. He did an amazing job! I have also had the pleasure of meeting Michael. He is the nicest man. He is very sweet and knows diamonds!!!! I recommend him to all my friends and family. You will not be disappointed!!!!! Thank you Michael for everything!!!!!
This is definitely a 5-star establishment. The guys at Towne Jewelers are extremely kind and courteous to their customers. They have a great selection of jewelry to pick from. And if they don’t have what you are looking for, they’ve got the skills and know-how to design and make it for you. My wife couldn’t be happier with the ring that was designed for her by Steve. If you’re in the market for an engagement ring, a gift for that special someone, or even just something for yourself, this is a great place to start.
Best customer service. Very friendly. Jewelry is beautifully displayed.

But that’s not really much of a surprise. Party city? Um.. The hardware store? He’s finally going to fix my futon. That’s not really surprise-worthy either. We walk up to this jewelry store. It’s no surprise that we love each other. We’ve talked about getting married for a long time now but haven’t actually committed to the idea. Why? Because we’re in a long distance relationship. One of us would have to move. But who? So why are we here? He wants to know what I like so I won’t have to look at the ring and “pretend” to like it only to somehow later find a way to tell him I hate it or want to change it. He knows how picky I am. He doesn’t want to guess at this stuff. This place isn’t a crazy high end store either but they carry some big name jewelry. I wasn’t too thrilled with the diamond engagement rings. I just wasn’t happy. The salesman couldn’t get a smile out of me and I kept rejecting everything. Luckily my boyfriend is very patient. Am I lucky girl or what? He knows I don’t like diamonds but that’s kinda what engagement rings are made of. I finally found a style I liked and then my wonderful boyfriend said “we actually want that in purple.” God bless him. He didn’t know the exact name of the stone but he knew I was different and I wanted my ring to be unique. So today there’s no ring on my finger but soon I’ll have a purple ring when they can special order the stone and mount it.
Let me start by saying that it’s an honor to be the first person to give Towne Jewelers a review on Yelp. Towne Jewelers is operated by a World-Class Team that I have been extremely fortunate to have discovered. I went there to purchase an engagement ring for my fiance, they have an excellent selection to choose from with a good range of styles. I didn’t end up buying a ring, but instead designed my own with the help of Steve Todd – who is a master in his profession. Steve really worked with me in every aspect of designing my engagement ring, educating me and fine tuning everything to create a beautiful and timeless engagement ring which my fiance absolutely loves. The experience was Excellent! the execution was Outstanding! I would highly recommend Towne Jewelers to everyone! I posted some pictures of the ring I designed here – take a look!
I too, worked with Stephen at Towne and have nothing but high praise for him and the store. With a few computer printouts in hand, I walked in as green as can be about a year ago to find an engagement ring. I ended up having it custom made due to the unique detail we wanted and it came out beautifully. Since then, I’ve been back in a few times and purchased other items. We’re currently having my fiancees wedding band made to match and have no doubt it will come out wonderfully too. I highly recommend you check out Towne Jewelers!
If you need anything from a watch battery to a twenty carat diamond necklace…Towne is the jewerly store for you. They have a wonderful selection of settings, stones, custom made pieces, famous name brands and more. If you don’t see what you have in mind – no problem – just talk with Steve Todd or Michael Jaggerman and they can make it for you. Steve has designed and made several amazing pieces of jewelry for me over the years. I have known him for over 25 years and can recommend him 100 percent. I just love walking in there and looking…well, I love walking out with a Towne shopping bag even more!
My first visit to this store was more curiosity than anything else. In the market for a wedding band, I decided to meander my way in here to check out their collection before running my daily errands. The gentleman who helped me try on different rings was not only courteous but very knowledgeable about each piece I picked out. No sales pressure, no flippant attitude, no rudeness at all like I’ve experienced at some other establishments. This was when I first saw what was soon to be my wedding band. Beautifully brilliant. High-quality. And the sparkle of the diamonds was so vivacious and fiery. My second visit was with my fiance. This time, we met with a lovely lady named Ruth (the owner’s wife), who proceeded to let me try on half of the store. Ruth was very patient, informative, and made us feel relaxed throughout the entire experience. She is just the sweetest lady! Again, I kept returning back to the wedding band I saw during my first visit, a platinum TIVOL with a gorgeous row of diamonds going across the top. We visited the store a third time a week later after having spent the day trying on bands at every other jewelry shop in the area. But it was obvious at this point that I had found “the one.” After trying on a few other pieces with Ruth, I bit the bullet and made my final decision. Fortunately for us, we bought the band during a holiday sale, so we received not only a fabulous discount but also a complimentary wedding band for my fiance. How’s that for value? And Ruth’s husband even gave us an additional discount because… well, they’re just amazing like that. While we waited for my ring to be resized (a free service when you buy the ring, of course), we were offered complimentary bottled waters and chocolates. It’s a small gesture, but being a designer, I know firsthand how big of an impact the little details can make. And I must say that the customer experience here is nothing short of phenomenal. I will definitely be coming back for the lifetime of free cleanings and inspections for my new wedding band! (And to check out their ever-changing selection.) If you’re in the market for fine jewelry without the snobby attitude, then give Towne Jewelers a try. Like its collection of rings, this family-owned business is all class.
They are great! I got my very favorite Tahitian black pearl necklace there. I wear it every single day!
We have been going to Towne Jewelry for past 13 years. Michael, Ruth and Steve make it a real pleasure to shop in this store. We have had custom made jewelry for very special occasions and very pleased with Steve’s design ideas.
What can I say about Towne Jewelers that you don’t know if you ever stepped foot in the store! Quality All around from service and final engagement ring. The time Steve Todd took with us from the beginning to the end with me was the best experience. Taking our vision to the final product was 100% more then what I expected. I have had Towne Jewelers make other pieces for me, and every time I see the final piece I still can’t believe that they out did there selfs again. I will till you that you will not be disappointed, and I guarantee if you walk into Towne Jewelers you will never have to go anywhere else for a Jeweler. Thank you for making our special day the best day of our lives.
I received my beautiful ring. It looks perfect. I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I appreciate all you’ve done. You are the best. As my son would say, “You are the MVP”.
I’m looking forward to seeing Sally with her new ring and hearing about her reaction when she first saw it!
I love the jewelry I purchased at Towne Jewelers. Thanks Michael, Ruth, and Steve! I get many compliments on my rings and pendant.

Discussion in 'Rifles, Bullets, Barrels & Ballistics' started by samson, May 7, 2003.
I was at the range today. Temp was around 68 degrees. I fired around 40 rounds and noticed that the last 3 groups were horrible. The barrel was very hot. When you guys shoot, how long do you wait in between shots. Also do you do anything to cool the barrel down?
After the first couple couple shots, I wait about 2-4 minutes between shots depending on barrel contour, cartridge, temperature and wind... what ever it takes to keep the bbl temp the same, which is just "barely" warm to "cool" to the touch.
Throat errosion is the worst enemy with heating them up excessively. Groups may change as tolerances change and length of time the cartridge dwells is the chamber before firing, a "good" chronograph will indicate how bbl temp is affecting velocity and thus trajectory, also harmonics will change if this occurs. Alot can go on if things aren't kept consistant.
When I shoot steel at long range, I'll always shoot groups like I would hunting to see how the rifle performs in that situation. If I am making a drop chart, I keep all things consistant, as I do on load development.
Noting the cold shot impact is very important, as well as point of impact shifts.
I only start making a chart, load development, or head out hunting with at least 3 rounds through the barrel to foul it first, some guns take 5... no oil in the bore after that, just tape on the muzzle when hunting.
Some loads toward maximum load are more sensitive to bbl heating than others, a good chrono will tell you what's happening in the chamber though.
I've noticed on my 300 Ultra, that after about 25-30 rounds... groups start to open up. I know to clean it after about twenty to 25 rounds now if I'm serious about getting meaningfull results, yours may foul up bad enough it needs cleaned under thirty rounds too.
samson, I think you shoot a 300 winnie, right. You might want start cleaning around 20rds as Brent stated, If you haven't started to do so already. If you want to know where your first shot is going, as for a hunting situation, you might want to shoot 1 round every 10min. that will give your barrel time to cool off quite a bit, if you just want to shoot the ---- thing, take 3 shots and let er' cool down for 10-15min. Or you can do what the varmint guys do and bring out a portable air compressor and blow air down the barrel to cool er' off. Jay.
Amen to Jay, on the 20 round clean out!!
That's what all my rifle's get.
While you wait for the barrel to cool, run a rod through it...sakofan..
Samson, I only let me barrels get warm to the touch, never hot. I wrap them with wet cold towels to help cool faster. I bring a small pop can cooler with water and an ice pack during the summer.
As to cleaning, I am different. I only clean when the rifle shows degrading accuracy. Maybe it is because I use moly but I rarely find the need to clean at 20rds. Usually, 50rds or more go before I think about it. A couple haven't been cleaned and they are approaching 70rds.
Some rifles shoot best when fouled, some heavily fouled. Over cleaning is just as bad as not cleaning enough. If you are shooting on paper, keep shooting until you see your groups open up dramatically (like double in size). Then only clean as much as you need to restore accuracy.
You will read that most will need a few fouling shots to get their barrels to settle down before shooting their best. Well, after those fouling shots, the barrel is pretty dirty.
I agree, I only clean if my gun won't group consistantly anymore. After groups fall apart when only 20-30 rounds been down the bore, it's definataly "over fouled". I've never shot beyond 20 more rounds after that point to see if it would settle down again, too easy to clean then go another 20-30 that I know for sure will be right on.
I've read that some guys accuracy don't fall apart until 100-150 round when using moly.... wouldn't that be the cats ---!! Haven't heard if the same's true with tungsten disulfide coatings or not.
I have a couple rifles that don't degrade noticably for over 50 rounds, but I rarely shoot one rifle over that many in one day at the range so they all get cleaned at that point if they need it or not. Just can't stand the thought of getting started the next time out and groups going to hell after the first few round down range basically. One of these rifles has the roughest bore you could imagine too.
Jerry, heard about the dirty bore thing on shotguns from "old-timers" but never with rifles. Shooting during summer months is limiting because of heat. I have been out for several hours in the heat, and because of it, not gotten off many rounds.

The UPwards Leader | Raising the bar on leadership!!
Everyone has a default mode.
For some it’s just about getting the task done, with little regard for trying to improve.
For others, it’s ripping into people when performance is lacking.
Some people listen to online learning about new processes or products, then go back to playing the same 1-string guitar of their sale pitch. (You see much of this on social media today).
Some binge watch or binge eat. Others just shut down when the pressure’s on.
Our default modes typically hinder us, prevent us from growing, hamper us from moving the needle.
Default modes are our comfort zones. And our comfort zones never make anything better. That includes us as individuals.
Our challenge is today is to be self-aware and break out of our default mode.
Know the meta of your modus operandi, and determine to do differently in a way that stretches you and makes the most impact.
Purpose to reset your default mode to one that challenges you to grow and impact your sphere of influence.
You have an employee who is not performing up to standards. Now you have a decision to make, whether or not to let them go.
This decision point tends to be a watershed moment for the leader as much, and perhaps more so, than for the employee in question.
When a situation like this arises, the leader does not have a default binary “Should they stay or should they go?” choice, but a different choice that can transform a culture and ensure your leadership – and the future of the employee – pays greater dividends all around.
Decide To Groom Them Before You Broom Them.
Employee turnover is not just voluntary, initiated by the staff member. Involuntary reasons such as lay offs and especially termination define what turnover consists of as well. This means as leaders we cannot turn a blind eye to either one of these, because how we train and provide deeper meaning to our people impacts whether staff leave on their terms, or on other terms.
Did we give the employee consistent view of the vision of the company?
Have we connected as an organization to the individual, making them feel valued?
Have we listened to their voice, and taking their feedback for us to improve?
Did we show them everything they need to do their job?
Did we understand their individual learning needs, and not just try to move them up the productivity chart when their learning curve was slower?
Are the tools they need to accomplish their job working?
Are the systems they use too complex?
Do other employees complain about the same issues this person seems to be struggling with?
Are they willing to learn and are committed to our culture?
Did we just train them once and assume full competence?
Did we continue training and development every day to ensure they – and all staff – continue to improve at their jobs?
Many years ago I had a team of supervisors approach me that a certain individual was not performing to standards after 5 weeks on the job. They suggested that I look to let her go.
By this time they got what I was saying. they agreed to double down on her training, give her some time to learn, and keep pouring attention into her development.
4 weeks later the supervisor team came back to me and told me what a great job this employee was doing, and that she is starting to stand out as one of the better employees.
I then replied “And we were ready to let her go. What did we learn?” They learned that it was better to ensure we groomed our team before we decided to broom them out.
There are far more times people leave due to our failings as leaders than we realize. Grooming your people must take priority to ensure the role is understood, executed, and aligned with your culture.
The resulting outcomes speak for themselves. If an employee needs to leave involuntarily, then we know we did everything on our end to provide necessary training and can be protected in that decision. If they leave voluntarily, then most likely it’s because they found a great opportunity and are leaving a good culture and role for a better fit for them.
And if they don’t leave but stay with your organization you have benefited by becoming an employer of choice and are giving your people those things they need and want in the workplace.
Groom before you think to broom.

Targeting support for: Muscle and Nerve System.
The Muscle System includes three main types of muscle: skeletal (voluntary muscle), smooth muscle (involuntary muscle) and specialized muscle tissue of the heart. Skeletal muscle are attached either directly or indirectly via tendons to bones, and work in opposing pairs, one muscle contracts while the other relaxes. Facial expressions, walking, using your hands, and limbs are examples of skeletal muscle. Smooth muscles occur in the walls of the internal body organs and help force food through the intestines, contracting the uterus in childbirth, and pumping blood through blood vessels. Eye muscle fibers contract and dilate to alter pupil size. The tongue has interlacing layers of muscle to allow great mobility. All of these parts that make up the Muscle System need the same TRAACS® bio-available minerals found in Amino Key M gives a sense of well-being. The minerals work together to promote natural muscle stress release support in the Muscle System.
Amino Key M contains 120 capsules. Serving Size: 1 to 5 capsules or as directed by a health professional.

Margery twisted the plain gold band around her finger, felt the catch of it against the callus formed from almost three decades of wear. After years he'd abandoned her for some elusive freedom lost in his youth. And he wanted to take everything they had with him. It wasn't enough to leave her broken-hearted. Carl wanted her broke as well.
"It doesn't have to be this hard." The voice came from just behind her left shoulder, the auditory equivalent of gulping olive oil. Everyone else pacing the courthouse lobby made noise, but Simon just appeared in a cloud of ashy cologne and unctuous words. Margery wasn't even sure anyone else saw him.
She didn't turn. Long years of teaching had taught her to keep a steady voice despite fear, but looking at him would reveal her shaking hands. "I'm not signing that ridiculous postnuptial agreement."
"Yes, you've made that quite clear." He placed a hand on her shoulder, the heat of it radiating like sunburn. "So, we've found an alternative solution."
"Ah." She stepped away from his touch. "Is there where you finally threaten to kill me?"
"Kill?" Simon's voice took on an indignant tone like sauce glugging from a bottle. "What kind of uncivilized monster do you think I am?"

Louisiana Tech hasn't played Southeastern Louisiana since 2008.
Louisiana Tech has finalized its 2021 non-conference schedule.
FBschedules.com reported Wednesday that the Bulldogs will host in-state foe Southeastern Louisiana Saturday, Sept. 11, 2021, at Joe Aillet Stadium, filling out their final open out-of-conference date that season. Louisiana Tech Athletic Director Tommy McClelland confirmed the report with The News-Star on Thursday.
Other 2021 non-conference games for Tech include: at Mississippi State on Sept. 4 for the season opener; at home the week following the Southeastern matchup versus SMU; the first meeting of a home-and-home series on Sept. 18; and another OOC road game at North Carolina State, the opener of a three-game series, on Oct. 2.
“We have a contract signed with Southeastern Louisiana and we look forward to having an in-state school come to Ruston in 2021,” McClelland said.
Tech will pay the Lions $275,000 for their visit on Sept. 11, a date that was formerly filled by the return trip of a home-and-home with Baylor.
The FCS home guarantee game with in-state programs have been nearly an annual thing for Louisiana Tech. This coming season, the Bulldogs will host Interstate 20 neighbor Grambling State on Sept. 7. Last year, Tech played Southern and met old rival Northwestern State in the 2017 season opener.
Currently, Louisiana Tech doesn’t have a money game on its 2020 schedule, but with two out-of-conference away games already on the books, it’ll likely continue the trend of bringing in a smaller, instate team.
Louisiana Tech and Southeastern Louisiana haven’t faced since Sept. 20, 2008, a 41-26 home victory for the Bulldogs. Tech leads the overall series with the Lions, 28-7-2.

The Tuscany on Grace Bay has been honoured with two 2013 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Awards. The luxurious hotel is a popular choice for tourists taking Turks and Caicos holidays and it was ranked in second place in the Top 25 resorts in the Caribbean and awarded for its Service in the Caribbean category.
Management at the Veranda Resort in the Turks and Caicos have taken the tough decision to close during the crucial winter months for renovations despite the fact that this is a peak period for travellers booking Turks and Caicos holidays. The resort, recently acquired by Sandals Resorts International, will be brought up to the Sandals brand's high standards and will be rebranded as part of the firm's nearby Beaches Turks & Caicos luxury resort.
The Black Swan star, Natalie Portman, and her new husband Benjamin Millepied have been enjoying their late honeymoon with their one-year-old son in the Caribbean islands of Turks and Caicos. The islands are a popular choice for romantic breaks as well as family-friendly Turks and Caicos holidays thanks to the selection of pristine beaches, nature parks and attractions.
The Turks and Caicos Director of Tourism, Ralph Higgs, recently announced that a record breaking number of travellers booked Turks and Caicos holidays in 2011- a real feat for the Caribbean island in light of the global economic downturn and the negative effects that the Air Passenger Duty has had on arrival figures in other popular Caribbean destinations. Mr Higgs noted that an increase in the number of direct flights to Turks and Caicos has been a contributor to the uptake in visitors.

The rule regarding double hits that Tiger was almost penalized for at the Hero World Challenge this month will change in 2019.
It's safe to say that Tiger Woods is not happy with the way his second round ended Friday at the Hero World Challenge. After all, he made a double bogey at 18. But it could've been much worse. He was nearly penalized for a bizarre second shot from under a bush off the 18th fairway. Woods took the shot from one knee with a limited backswing. Here's the part that's even more odd: Woods did indeed double hit the shot, but he was not penalized because HD slo-mo video replay was required to detect the violation.
Woods was cruising on Friday afternoon, having made five birdies over his first 17 holes to get to four under, just four shots off the lead at the time. It was a nice turnaround from his opening 73 on Thursday that featured a devastating triple bogey on the par-3 12th. At 18, Woods hit a fairway wood off the tee to avoid the water that runs the length of the hole. His tee shot sailed right, landing in a sandy waste area. Tiger arrived at the spot only to find that his ball had nestled itself underneath a leafy, Bahamian bush.
That's where the controversy began. After talking to a rules official, Woods got onto one knee and took an awkward swipe at his ball. He made contact and his ball rolled out to a decent spot in the rough. After finishing off his double-bogey 6, Tiger was greeted by rules officials in the scoring tent to review that second shot. Watch it for yourself here: https://twitter.com/PGATOUR/status/1068602953462775808 As Woods met with officials, social media lit up with speculation that Tiger had either double-hit the shot or scooped it from under the bush: both would result in a penalty. According to current Rule 14-4, if a player hits the ball more than once during a single stroke, it results in a one-stroke penalty. Coincidentally, the new and improved Rules of Golf will wipe out with that rule. But they don't begin until Jan. 1. In addition, Rule 14-1a, "Fairly Striking the Ball" states that when making a stroke "the ball must be fairly struck at with the head of the club and must not be pushed, scraped or spooned."
After a lengthy review, the officials reportedly determined that Tiger hadprobably committed a double hit. However, because they needed slo-mo HD video to see it, Woods was not assessed a penalty. Woods can thank newly enacted Decision 34-3/10 for that. According to that decision, "a player's reasonable judgment in making certain types of fact determinations will be accepted even if, after the player has made a stroke, video evidence shows that the player’s judgment might have been wrong, and video evidence that shows facts that could not reasonably have been seen with the ‘naked eye’ will be disregarded." After his round, Woods admitted that the video review showed him hitting the ball twice, but because it wasn't "discernible to the naked eye" he received no penalty. Mark Russell, PGA Tour Vice President of Rules and Competitions had this to say after the round: "Well, Tiger was under a bush and we did determine that he did make a stroke at it. He didn't scrape or spoon or push the ball. And when he did that, Tiger said that he did not think he hit the ball twice. Looking at it in the regular speed on a high-definition television, you couldn't tell that at all, but when you slowed it down to ultraslow motion high-definition television,you could see where the club [sic] did stay on the clubface quite a bit of time and it looked like he might have hit it twice, but there's no way he could tell that." "In this age of high-definition slow motion television, we've got a decision at 34-3/10, Limitations on Use of Video Evidence. Basically it says if the player did not know that he did that and the only way you can tell that is by using this type of slow motion technology, he's exempt from the rules, so there's no penalty there." This is not the first time Woods has been caught up in a rules controversy, so it's likely we'll hear more about this ruling, and the upcoming rulebook changes, for weeks to come.

I am a firm believer and a big advocate that you should have and maintain a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system and cannot understand why any organization would run their business without one. You often hear the negatives about CRM, that the management or sales team doesn’t buy in and if they don’t drink the ‘cool aid’ then the system fails.
Yesterday was my “aha” moment when I realized that even the greatest advocate “me” can also have a CRM that is not working for them to the best effect!
It has bothered me for quite a while that internally we have not been tracking our sales funnel using our CRM. I won’t bore you with all the details of the manual process that we have been using, as business process automation specialists we should certainly know better, but as so often is the case, as the old “English” expression goes “a Cobblers kids never have shoes!” My other excuse has always been that I am not technical so it isn’t my role to set this up.
One of our business partners had offered to go through and teach me how to create opportunities in our system, which I was frightened to tackle as I didn’t know where to start.
What was so great about this session from my perspective is that it wasn’t about the technology, sure there was a tool to use, but it was more about defining each step in the process and once defined putting the information into the tool.
The funny thing is that of course when we talk to partners about how to approach their clients about business process management solutions, we regularly tell them that the hardest part is defining the process – the tool that we have will just do the job. Yet I as an experienced vendor of such an application had not implemented the same methodology into my own internal system.
I also realized that as a non technical user that we are really the drivers for using systems we know in our heads what we are trying to achieve and it takes a great consultant to have a conversation with you to dig into your mind and to teach you how to best use your internal tools be they CRM, ERP or Business Process Management.
So I would like to thank Charlie Kemmerer of CRMPlus Consulting not just for his time and patience, but for his great insights. Not only did I learn how to use my CRM, I learned real time how to define my process and I gained some confidence in how to use my tools. Plus I learned what it is like to be a Customer who doesn’t know what they don’t know about their application, but does know in their mind all the answers to the process that they need, to make their solution work for them.
I now have a lot more work to do to finish the job I started but at least I have the insight on where to start.
CRMPlus Consulting, a business automation solutions specialist for Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software applications, is pleased to announce the successful implementation of Sage SalesLogix for University Community Health (UCH).
CRMPlus Consulting has configured SalesLogix as a territory management tool for UCH and their Physician Liaisons. This allows them to manage relationships and scheduled ‘touches’ with important physicians, as well as developing and managing new physician relationships. SalesLogix has also offered the ability to implement processes to allow the Liaisons to easily track and manage physician issues through to completion.

In your quest for great-looking thighs and calves, who better to emulate than a group famous for strong, beautiful legs: dancers. These ballet-inspired moves will strengthen and tone all of the muscles in you upper and lower legsand might even add more elegance to your stride. Try these moves 3 times per week, gradually increasing to 3 sets of each per session.
1A. Stand next to a chair, resting your right hand lightly on the back for balance (but try to use the chair as little as possible). With feet together, bend your left knee and bring your left foot to the front of your lower right leg. Extend left arm, and raise it to shoulder height.
1B. Push up through your right leg onto your tiptoes. At the same time, extend your left leg forward about 2 feet from the floor (or as high as is comfortable), keeping hips level. Pause, and return to starting position. Repeat 8–12 times on right leg, then switch legs.
2B. Press down on your right leg to return to standing. As you come up, sweep your right leg across the front of your body (this should be more of a lifting motion than a swinging one). Your leg should be about 2 feet from the floor, or as close as you can comfortably get. Pause, and return to plie position. Repeat 8–12 times on right leg, then switch legs.
3A. Stand facing the back of a chair, resting your hands lightly on it for balance. Place your heels together with feet turned slightly outward, then extend your right leg behind you, with your toe pointed down. Keep your abs tight, and be sure not to arch your back.
3B. Slowly lift your right leg, allowing the knee to bend slightly. Pause, and return to starting position. Repeat 8–12 times, then switch legs.
Imagine that youre being suspended by a string from the ceiling to keep you standing tall throughout the workout.
Keep your abs tight and chest lifted during each exercise.
Dont lock your knees when straightening your legs.
Turn your legs out from the hips, and only go as far as is comfortable.
Keep all of your movements fluid and graceful.
For some additional leg work (and a calorie-burning boost), incorporate hills into your regular walk or run, or increase the incline on the treadmill or elliptical trainer.

Drop whatever you’re doing and go buy, borrow, or steal this book: The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck: How to Stop Spending Time You Don’t Have with People You Don’t like Doing Things You Don’t Want to Do (A No F*cks Given Guide).
Is it cliché to say this book has changed my life? If it is, I no longer give a F! And I’ll give you an obvious heads up right now—if you are offended by the F-word, you’ll hate how often the author uses it to make her point. But I’d still encourage you to risk your pride and read the book anyways, despite the copious amounts of F-bombs, because the lesson is invaluable. So if you’re willing to not give a f*ck about the language, let’s continue.
Do you feel like you’re scrambling to get everything done in your life? Do you feel drained at bedtime and don’t know why because you feel like you haven’t done anything all day? Do you spend too much time worrying what other moms think of you or your kids? Do you feel guilty for not being “perfect?” THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU.
Author Sarah Knight takes you through all the reasons why you need to stop giving all your f*cks (cares) away and teaches you how to reserve your cares for what’s actually important to you. She calls this process her NotSorry Method and if the title of the book sounds familiar, yes, it is a parody of Marie Kondo’s The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. Knight’s version is simply for your mental clutter.
Knight’s examples are relatable, her writing style is very simple to read and to enjoy, and she leaves no room for you to get away with your excuses anymore. It’s time to make a list of everything you care about, everything you give to many f*cks about, and sort through that “mental barn load,” as she calls it, to organize and get rid of what’s weighing you down. In this way, you free up your energy, time, money, and cares for what really matters to you and what will give you your best quality of life.
Some things I care about: hobbies, people’s feelings, dogs, hand sanitizer, writing, food.
Some things I no longer care about: people’s judgements about me, being a morning person, forced play dates to appear social, cooking dinner.
Not giving a f*ck means taking care of yourself first—like affixing your own oxygen mask before helping others. Not giving a f*ck means allowing yourself to say no. I don’t want to. I don’t have time. I can’t afford it. Not giving a f*ck—crucially—means releasing yourself from the worry, anxiety, fear and guilt associated with saying no, allowing you to stop spending time you don’t have with people you don’t like doing things you don’t want to do. Not giving a f*ck means reducing mental clutter and eliminating annoying people and things from your life, freeing up space to truly enjoy all of the things you do give a f*ck about. This might sound selfish, and it is. But it also creates a better world for everyone around you.
That’s when it hit me: I can be the better mother I’ve always wanted to be (more patient, more fun, more everything) by simply reallocating where I put all my energy. It’s not just the sheer amount of things I’m doing during the day that exhaust me because believe me, I’ve cut out everything extra that I can. I’ve quit jobs, stopped hobbies, given up Facebook, all in attempts to have more time and energy to be a better mom and get crap done…. to no avail. I still felt like I was running behind, on an empty tank of gas. But ever since I’ve given up my worries about things that gave me added anxiety, things I have never enjoyed and that don’t actually matter in the long run (like cooking dinner, for example), I’ve finally found that renewed energy and love of life that I’ve been searching for.
And I’m 99.9% sure this book can help you do the same for yourself. So stop reading my review and go read the book, already!

Get to know N’Goloba. N'Goloba lives in the little village of Zambougou, Mali and is 13 years old. This fall, he will be in the 8th grade at Mali Rising’s Denik Middle School.
N'Goloba likes to have fun, but he is all seriousness when it comes to school. "School is important to me because with education I could have a good job and meet the needs of my family. My favorite part of school is when I'm in class for a course because I feel comfortable and more motivated to learn new things."
After graduating from middle school, N'Goloa wants to continue to go school and eventually attend University to study economics. But he says when he grows up he wants to be a policeman to secure his country.
We asked N'Goloba to imagine his life 10 years from now. He says, "If I imagine 10 years in the future, I wish that my life is totally changed to positive. I'd realize all my dreams. I'd be a rich policeman who helps his village to go forward. I would encourage the children to continue to go to school so that they can achieve their dream because education is the thing that can help us realize our dreams."
N'Goloba's hero is Cheick Modibo Diarra, because he was a very successful student and then went to work at NASA. Diarra opened a private university and supports a lot of educational projects in Mali so that children can have a bright future, and N'Goloba admires Diarra's drive to give back to his country.
When asked what he will do if he is successful in life, N'Goloba has big plans: "When I succeed in life, I will spoil my parents with money because they made a lot of sacrifices so that I can study. I will help the children in my village so that they can study in turn. I'd build classrooms, and bring school supplies. And I will see that Mali is secure."
N'Goloba is thankful for his education. He thanks his parents and teachers, but also Mali Rising & Denik for the construction of our school. He explains, "If there were no school in my village, I wasn't going to be educated because the surrounding schools are far from Zambougou – 7 to 10 kilometers. I was too discouraged to walk such a distance to study."
N'Goloba's chores include taking care of the family livestock and plowing the fields.
Eating lunch with friends is one of the bright spots of any student's day.
Life isn't all serious even for kids in Mali...horseplay is an international language.
Boys will be boys...everywhere around the world.

Find food you love 800 miles from Chicago.
I moved to Atlanta from Chicago in mid-2016. At first, I was dismayed. The local pizza is Papa John's and Pizza Hut, along with a tasteless local brand which seems opposed to sauce. Yeah, that's what I said. But there's hope!
This is a directory. To be listed in the directory itself is free and entirely up to my discretion. Mere inclusion doesn’t mean I’ve been there, or, if I have, that I’ve liked it. That’s my disclaimer.
Of course you do. You can get an entire page with links and what-not. Here's the skinny: Getting the word out there matters. Bring in the foot traffic.

The Ohio Wesleyan men’s basketball team can put points up in bunches. But, its defense starred in Saturday’s NCAC victory over Oberlin.
The Bishops held visiting Oberlin to just four points in the final 9:47 in a 72-58 victory at Branch Rickey Arena.
Fresh off joining the OWU 1,000-point club, senior post Ben Simpson turned in his second straight double-double performance and fourth of the season with a 15-point, 10-rebound effort – both game-highs.
“My dad always showed me Dennis Rodman highlights – he was a big Dennis Rodman fan and that’s where it came from,” said Simpson, who’s from Lake Bluff, IL.
Simpson averaged a double-double for the Bishops last season and is four-tenths of a rebound away from doing it again this year.
OWU held Oberlin, second in the NCAC in three-pointers attempted and third in made threes, to just five for the game. The Bishops lead the league in both categories.
OWU was struggling to find offense before Eugene Coleman broke the seal on an almost four-minute drought in the second half with a basket underneath off a feed from Erick Bryant with 6:24 left.
Seth Clark and Will Orr knocked down threes on consecutive possessions to give the Bishops (5-3, 3-0) a 70-56 lead with 2:56 left, all but ending any suspense.
Simpson scored 11 points and grabbed eight boards in the first half alone. Seth Clark knocked down a three-pointer with 6 seconds left to give OWU a 42-31 lead at the break.
Clark hit four of OWU’s 11 three-pointers and Will Orr knocked down three as the Bishops shot 45.8 percent from deep.
Andre Campbell knocked down a jumper and then hit one of two at the line on the next possession to get the Yeomen (1-7, 0-3) within five points with 14:45 left, but that’s as close as it would get.
Clark finished with 14 points, seven rebounds and three steals, Nate Axelrod had 14 points and five assists and Orr added nine points and three rebounds for the Bishops.
Nathan Cohen led the Yeomen with 13 points and Campbell added 11 and six rebounds as Oberlin dropped its sixth straight.
OWU continues NCAC play at home against Kenyon Saturday at 3 p.m.

Some of Britain’s top junior boys returned home from competition in Germany recently wearing a sweet glow of success. UK sporting achievement is always very welcome especially when it involves emerging talent, and when glory is earned internationally it certainly adds to that winning feeling. It’s also another pointer to just how strong gymnastics is becoming across our clubs and academies.
The Cottbus Wohnen Junior Trophy provided some enthralling competition with plenty of excitement and high drama to match. In fact, six of our best junior boys made the trip with medals very much in mind. Such was their dominance they not only took the overall title but also finished more than 30 marks ahead of their hosts securing lavish praise along the way.
Age ranges are very important at this stage of a gymnast’s career, and in this particular event, there were three involving under 13, 15 and 17-year-olds. Each group saw some outstanding personal performances from the British team of Oakley Banks and Sam Mostowfi from the vibrant Pegasus club, Danny Crouch based at South Essex, Jack Stanley, a favourite at Leeds, Remell Robinson-Bailey from the Earls club and Korben Fellows from the ever popular City of Birmingham.
Everyone at Pegasus was thrilled to see the effervescent Oakley Banks lift the all-around champion Bronx crown in fine style. His absorbing routines impressed the judges greatly as they awarded him a total of 74.500 marks. Looking closer, this versatile young athlete made five apparatus finals collecting a score of 13.150 on the floor – more than enough to claim Gold. Consistency was key, as he also ran up a score of 12.450 on the vault, to claim another leading medal. It was in every sense a dynamic effort as part of a hard-working team.
It seemed to be a case of ‘If Oakley can make five finals, so can I’, as Mr Crouch set about claiming what turned out to be the group runners-up spot. He excelled on the testing high bar to build a score of 12.300. This was enough to win him a glittering Gold.
As for his colourful floor contribution, 13.050 proved adequate enough to claim a Silver. Danny rounded off another Silver with a nice round score of 12.000 on the rings.
Double delight without question for the team.
The under 15 age group saw the same pattern eventually emerge with Jack Stanley making all six finals. No surprise then to see him claim the Gold with a superb score of 76.05 and encouraging acknowledgement from the judges.
It was a performance full of promise for the future. On the rings, Jack pushed his way to a score of 12.400, good enough to put a Gold medal around his neck. Another highlight saw the Leeds based teenager lift a Silver with a pulsating pommel routine earning 12.250 marks. Enter the parallel bars where our man showed no signs of waning on his way to a score of 12.600 and a Bronze medal to boot. He wasn’t finished, of course, adding a vault Bronze to his collection amassing 12.400 marks.
Remell Robinson-Bailey wasn’t holding back either in grabbing second place, giving everything to reach five finals. His brilliant work on the Pommel earned a strong total of 12.300 marks and a shiny Gold medal. The motto is if you can’t win an event, stay in the top three, and Remell carried it out to the letter with a Bronze on both floor and rings. Scores of 12.500 and 11.900 were more than respectable.
The under 17 section was as tough as ever, but Korben Fellows still looked highly competitive, running up a Gold in the pommel and a Bronze on the rings. He performed very admirably indeed in the all-around running up a score of 74.450. It certainly all bodes well for the next few years and his contribution to the team was first class along with Sam Mostowfi. The Pegasus powerhouse worked himself into sixth place with a score of 73.750, and still managed to reach five tremendously entertaining finals, never losing focus. One of the most fascinating performances saw him secure a valuable Bronze on the vault scoring 12.875.
This terrific team effort helped put together an overall total of 447.45, leaving little doubt as to which way the honours went. Every coach, official and of course, gymnast, could feel the love. A memorable trip to Europe, and a reminder to all our clubs of what’s possible collectively – especially in a gymnastics competition.
It really is all about the team.
