Music therapists love a theme! Themes to sessions help to give focus and context for our clients to refer back to throughout. The songs listed below span several decades, and we typically use with older adults and memory care, but could be adapted for any population.
This song was made famous by Tiny Tim on his ukulele. Perfect for the springtime, it can be used for an individual music making experience by engaging with our clients to strum the ukulele while the music therapist creates the chord shapes.
Birds start to tweet, the robins come out to make music, and so do we! Play a recorded or live version of this song while shaking an egg shaker to the beat.
April Showers bring May Flowers, and you can make the most of the rain with this classic Gene Kelly song. Use it a movement or songwriting intervention by switching out the word “Singin’” with words like “Dancin’” “Shakin’” “Tappin’” for creative experience!
With the season in its title, this classical song is a great way to introduce a new genre into your session plan. Use colorful scarves or mimic a tree blossoming for a creative movement experience.
Each season brings new changes. Play a recording or live version of the David Bowie song, and every time you hear the phrase ch-ch-ch-ch-changes, change what instrument you’re playing or how you’re playing it!
After all those spring showers, we hope a beautiful rainbow appears. This American Songbook classic can be used in several interventions, including songwriting about what you may see over the rainbow!
The trees begin to blossom in the spring. This instrumental version of a classic song is a great time to break out the bongos and have a creative drum circle.
We finally start to see some fresh green grass in spring. This song is a great opportunity for lyric analysis of what makes us love our home.
Listen to our spring playlist below and enjoy this new season!

Since Florida's frontier days when cattlemen drove their herds through the state's vast fields and forests, ranchers and native panthers have been natural enemies.
The ranchers seek to nurture and protect their calves, while the panthers see them as prey.
Human development won the battle, driving the large, tawny cats to the brink of extinction before successful efforts to restore them began decades ago.
But with Florida's panther population recovering, some ranchers complain the protected 6-to-7-foot long predators are once again killing their calves.
Now, university research supports that claim, at least in one part of southwest Florida.
A University of Florida researcher hired by federal wildlife officials has found that panthers are killing calves in an area where the predatory felines are thriving. Her study, the first to quantify the kills and losses, was given to The Associated Press exclusively.
The research marks the first step toward the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service considering a program that would pay ranchers for preserving acres of panther habitat, instead of undertaking the impossible task of verifying every kill.
"Ranchers will tell you that they suspected panthers were killing their calves, although no one knows how many they're losing," said Caitlin Jacobs, the university researcher who staked out a ranch for the better part of two years. "It's hard to find the calves — when panthers kill they drag the prey into the forest and cover it with brush to hide them from scavengers."
It's estimated that at one time, more than 1,300 panthers roamed Florida before their numbers dwindled — at one point in the 1800s, the state's government offered $5 for panther scalps. There were as few as 20 panthers in the 1990s, but the population has rebounded thanks to conservation efforts.
The problem began to draw the attention of state and federal wildlife officials about four years ago, after third-generation Florida rancher Liesa Priddy, owner of the 9,300-acre JB Ranch near Immokalee, became suspicious when a new calf vanished.
"My first calf went missing shortly after being born," said Priddy, who is also a member of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. "I couldn't find remnants of a body or anything else. She just totally disappeared."
Ranchers had been telling federal and state wildlife officials about the problem for years, but lacked scientific evidence. Calves are also commonly killed by coyotes, vultures and even bears.
In the past, ranchers simply would have shot the panthers, but because the state's 100 to 180 panthers are legally protected under the Endangered Species Act, they have few options.
Priddy had a local outdoorsman stake out her pasture with night-vision goggles. That night, a panther took a calf and they found the carcass, Priddy said.
She called out a state biologist, who confirmed it was a panther kill and began the research to find out how pervasive the issue had become.
"We started to hear more from the ranching community as a whole that this was a problem that we need to address," said Kevin Godsea, project leader of the Florida Panther National Wildlife Refuge. "Since then we've done some investigating. We didn't know how big the problem was."
The researchers targeted two ranches and tagged 400 calves on each. They found that JB Ranch, which has nearby forests where panthers can hide, lost 10 calves, or about 5 percent. A beef cow can go for around $1,000. A lost heifer can cost future profits from breeding more cows.
The other ranch lost only one calf to panthers over that time.
The study's results are set to be released later this year. The information can help wildlife managers move forward on ideas for compensating ranchers.
"We don't feel as landowners and ranchers that we should have to bear the cost of protecting an endangered species," Priddy said. "It's a public cost that should be shared by everyone."
Right now, small ranchers with less than 100 head of cattle can apply for compensation from two nonprofits: Defenders of Wildlife and Conservancy of Southwest Florida.
But those programs aren't used by bigger ranches, Godsea said, and don't have the resources to address the larger problem.
"Without good science, we can't make good policy or management decisions," Godsea said. "(This) research is absolutely essential."
But any compensation plan must be designed to prevent false claims, says Jennifer Hecker, director of natural resource policy for the Conservancy of Southwest Florida.
"The devil's in the details," Hecker said.
Ironically, panther experts say Florida's ranches have helped the panther somewhat by keeping large tracts of land largely development free.
"If there weren't ranches in Florida, there'd be no panthers," said UF's Jacobs. "The ranchers have kept the middle of Florida development free. They've maintained this landscape the panthers will need to ever be considered recovered."

Cancer is one of those things you pray never happens to you.
It’s one of those things you KNOW can happen, but hardly can fathom the reality of and so you don’t.
In 2009, two of my friends had young children diagnosed with cancer within a few months of each other. First it was Julia, 2 years old, who had an aggressive tumor on her kidney. Then Joseph, who one day woke up with a headache that never did go away during his time left on earth. The experience of watching two close friends walk through the darkest valley is something no one wants to add to their resume. The grief and pain was deep for all of us touched by the lives of these two families.
But no matter how many hospital visits, dinners prepared, prayers uttered, and hand-holding sessions shared, cancer is still a distant experience.
I remember every detail of the exact moment my own son woke up with a headache that has yet to go away. It wasn’t a dull annoyance, but an excruciating emergency. Instead of weeks of waiting, questions, and tests as so many of my friends have experienced upon cancer diagnosis, my son Luke was diagnosed in less than 2 hours. He woke up at 8:10am that Wednesday morning, hugged me, plopped on my bed with his iPad like a normal little boy and within 20 minutes was never the same again. My plans for the day of taking my girls to co-op, working on a new post for my blog, and then heading to church as a family that night, were interrupted by the screams of a 6-year-old boy running through the house cradling his head like a football and vomiting.
Within 2 hours of that totally normal morning we woke up to, he had a seizure, was rushed to the ER in an ambulance, and had 2 MRIs, a CT scan, an X-ray, and 4 bags of medicine. Within 2 hours, we had been admitted into the pediatric ICU and began staring the big C word in the face.
That was November of 2016. Over a year and a half later we’ve had 10 MRIs, 2 surgeries, 5 hospitalizations, 61 bottles of medicine, 43 blood draws, physical therapy, occupational therapy, counseling, and 41 rounds of chemo.
Last week, my precious boy stood surrounded by a team of doctors and nurses he has grown to love like family as he yanked the chord of “the bell.” Although the bell was large, it seemed to ring out with a rather small chime given the accomplishment for which it was designed to be rung. It was almost as if the bell understood both the celebration of being done with a round of chemo and yet at the same time, the probability of our return.
The muted chime understood the many children who never got to ring their bell and the families who miss them dearly.
As Luke stood there amongst his team of angels (both literal and figurative), his smile couldn’t have beamed wider. His face proclaimed the cry of his heart and the words spoken just weeks before will never be forgotten.
The words were originally spoken as he was collecting summer weather clothes for a February trip to San Diego courtesy of Make-A-Wish Foundation. But they weren’t spoken lightly, nor were they based on circumstances. In the 500+ days since he was first diagnosed, Luke’s attitude has always been the same: thankful. No matter how hard or painful things became, he always prayed, always smiled, and always had a heart full of gratitude.
He was thankful for extra time with mom while in the hospital or at chemo. He was thankful for the snack cart full of goodies and the hospital freezer “slushies.” He was thankful for the people who prayed and loved on him. He boasted about beating doctors at air hockey and attacking the nurses with silly string.
He’s looked forward to the bakery we visit on the way out of the MRI department. He’s made friends with nurses, doctors, assistants, receptionists, social workers, even the cafeteria workers. He’s prayed for the kids in chemo with him, those around the world that write to him or share with him, and even kids he has never met that I share with him from Facebook groups.
He has walked each and every day of this part of his journey with a smile.
And he’s right. Cancer is the best thing that ever happened to him. It’s the best thing that ever happened to all of us. There is something about watching God work in your life, holding your hand through the darkness of the unknown and holding up your arms when you can’t go on any longer, that you simply never forget. It changes you. Grows you. Refines you.
I wouldn’t give up that changing in myself or any of my kids. It’s a blessing that makes the journey “the best thing that ever happened” even when the path is rugged.
Although we have officially finished chemo and rung the bell to signal the end of treatment, Luke’s health is just as much in the hands of God as it was before. There is indeed a certain path, but none of us know what that is. We can’t say if the tumor will grow again or how fast that might happen. But today we celebrate the end of this chemo journey with hopeful expectation of what God will do next in our lives.
The video below chronicles this journey using Beads of Courage, another one of the blessings we’ve enjoyed on this journey.
We’d love for you to continue to pray for the side effects we’ve experienced. We’d love to get off the medication for neuropathy, but so far his legs are a little worse, not better. It could take some time to see changes there. We will continue to have regular appointments and MRIs to check on the tumor, as well. Updates on those and regular prayer requests will be shared right away in our Facebook group. We’d love for you to join us there.
I’m reminded of a truth I’ve clung to for many years now, a truth so rich it’s hard to believe we possess it: God is ONLY and ALWAYS good.
He’s good when your baby is diagnosed with cancer.
He’s good when you lose your job.
He’s good when your house floods from natural disaster.
He’s good when your husband leaves you pregnant, with small children.
He’s good even when you don’t feel it, see it, or accept it.
He is ALWAYS and ONLY good. We pray today that our journey inspires you to believe this truth. No matter what you face in life, God is already ahead of you working the details for your good (Romans 8:28-32). NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING can separate us from that kind of love! Out of His great mercy, we are #NotConsumed!
All I can say is thank you for sharing. We have been on a similar journey with leukemia. While I would not have chosen that path I would not trade it now. We are blessed our son is still here and we will celebrate 8 years remission. You are right it is a family journey.
Thank you for the update on your sweet son ? We will continue to pray for God’s hand on his continued recovery & will share with our praying friends as well!
And will add a special prayer for mama too! ?
Your faith is a blessing to me friend. ?
He is so good. He is our good Father. Your Luke and the whole family have experienced His goodness. Praise God!
God bless your family. Your love and testimony for Christ abounds in every step you’ve taken during this ordeal. Thank you for the blessings you’ve given your readers by sharing your lives. God bless! As always…your son and family will be in our family’s prayers.
Thank you for your faith and encouragement. To witness your walk with God is incredibly inspiring!
I am so thankful that God allowed our lives to cross all those years ago at our co-op. You are an inspiration to all of us and encourage me to keep looking to God for wisdom and direction in all things. Thank you for your transparency and obedience to the Lord. We will continue to lift up your sweet family before God and plead for Him to continue to work in a mighty way bringing glory to Him!
You will never know how your lives have impacted my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the one and only Jehova Roi, the Good Sheperd Who goes before us, Who walks with us in the shadows and the valley of death, and makes it so that goodness and mercy follow us, all to His glory. Thank you.
Amen, Amen, Amen. Blessed be His name the most High God Jesus Christ. I pray for you and your children and I thank you for sharing this journey with everyone. It is a blessing to read this and I will continue in my prayers for your family. Much Love.
Praying for your family! First heard you speak at the TTD conference in Rogers and you were one of my favorite sessions. Your little boy is an inspiration and I can only pray that one day my kids will have the same attitude in life.
The options to treat, cure, and prevent cancer are a lot more effective and diverse than most people realize. Wherever cancer is concerned, it’s almost impossible to avoid feeling afraid. When most people get a diagnosis, they get immersed in fear and then they stay there.
Amen! I agree that cancer was the best thing that happened to us growing up. My dad got cancer when I was 9. I still tell people today that I’m thankful for it because it produced much good in myself, our family, and my dad. May God continue to bless you as you walk this journey and as He leads you where He would have you.

The Maclay Marauders (2-6) brought in a 24-6 win over the St. Francis Catholic Wolves (2-6) of Gainesville, FL in front of many Maclay alumni for the 2015 Homecoming game. Though both teams lacked strength in numbers, the Marauders were able to come out with the victory over the Wolves.
Defense played a major role in the Marauder victory. Eighth grade linebacker, AJ Miller, totaled 12 tackles by the end of the game. Junior lineman, Zach Jones, brought in 11 tackles for the Marauders.
“Our defense has continued to play aggressive and swarm to the ball,” said sophomore running back, Taylor Smith. The Wolves were able to bring in a total of 25 tackles, six of which came from junior outside linebacker, Rodney Robinson.
Two Marauders stood out offensively for Maclay last night. Taylor Smith totaled 150 yards on 15 carries with one touchdown. Freshman quarterback, Jack Brady, totaled 110 yards and one touchdown.
“Our offense is starting to string drives together, which is helping us put up more points,” added Smith. Senior wide receiver, Jacob Sniffen, also scored a touchdown for the Marauders. The Wolves, on the other hand, struggled with their offense. However, senior quarterback, Hoss Marino, was able to total 93 yards rushing.
The Marauders continue their season on Oct. 30 against West Gadsden at Maclay.

He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4When he has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. 5They will not follow a stranger, but they will run from him because they do not know the voice of strangers.’ 6Jesus used this figure of speech with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

Steven Spielberg has Ready Player One officially out in theaters today and Carl's Jr. tried to get in on the marketing fun by renaming their new charbroiled sliders to "SpielBurgers." The legendary director caught wind of the fast food chain's publicity stunt and quickly shut it down after admitting that the sliders tasted "pretty good." Though Carl's Jr. never officially renamed their product, they're pretty happy that they got some kind of reaction out of Steven Spielberg with a semi-endorsement.
Carl's Jr. posted a bunch of spoof videos on Twitter advertising the name change of their sliders to the "SpielBurgers" to help promote Ready Player One and their new product. The videos each take on some of the director's most famous work, from E.T. to Jurassic Park. The fast food chain even decided to take their guerilla campaign to the next level when they had some of the "SpielBurgers" delivered to Amblin Entertainment yesterday, which prompted Steven Spielberg to record a response video and post it to Twitter.
The fast food chain tweeted over the weekend about the name change in honor of Ready Player One and noted that Steven Spielberg hadn't signed off, but that they "assume that he's cool with it." In addition to the burgers, an employee even left a letter on an Amblin executive's car. After Carl's Jr. delivered the "SpielBurgers" to Amblin, the director announced a cease and desist to the fast food chain after sort of complimenting the taste of their creations. Spielberg had this to say.
"It has recently come to my attention that Carl's Jr. wants to rename their charbroiled sliders SpielBurgers and they're pretty good, but I'm passing. Cease and desist. You can't do it - sorry, guys."
The publicity stunt worked out perfectly for Carl's Jr. They knew that Steven Spielberg would never sign off on the deal, but if they got any response from him, it would be well worth it. Not only did Spielberg respond, he recorded a video that stated that "SpielBurgers" were pretty good, resulting in free promotion for the fast food chain and Ready Player One. Obviously, Carl's Jr. is pretty happy with the outcome that they orchestrated. Though the note on the executive's car was a tad bit creepy.
As for official partnerships, Ready Player One teamed up with the extremely popular HQ Trivia app for a record breaking prize of $250,000. The trivia game will take place tonight, March 28th at 6:30 PM Pacific and 9:30 PM Eastern, to celebrate the release of the movie. As for Steven Spielberg actually eating Carl's Jr., that has to be a bit of a white lie. One cannot imagine one of the most legendary directors of all time eating that type of fast food, even though our president mows down McDonald's more than once a week. You can check out the brilliant marketing plan to promote fast food and Ready Player One below, courtesy of the Carl's Jr. Twitter account.

Popular online commenting plugin for websites and blogs, Disqus, has admitted that it suffered a data breach 5 years ago in which more than 17.5 million amount of data were stolen by the hackers.
Disqus explained that users data stolen during the breach which took place in July 2012, included usernames, email addresses, sign-up dates and last login dates in plain text.
The hackers were able to lay their hands on one third of the affected users whose passwords were hashed using the weak SHA-1 algorithm.
Disqus became aware of the breach on on October 5 after an independent researcher named Troy Hunt, notified the company of the breach. Disqus quickly notified its users, forcing them to reset their passwords.
Disqus CTO Jason Yan explained in a blog post that "No plain text passwords were exposed, but it is possible for this data to be decrypted (even if unlikely). As a security precaution, we have reste the passwords for affected users. We recommend that all users change passwords on other services if they are shared."
The company said that the hack dates back to 2007, although major security upgrades were made in 2012 such as the password hashing algorithm which was changed to Bcrypt which is a stronger cryptographic algorithm.
Disqus is currently investigating how the hackers managed to get their hands on their data. though the company warns that users are vulnerable to all kinds of phishing scams, malicious and spam messages.
could be an inside job because lack of security seems a bit hard to believe. i try and keep my system and devices totally protected through kaspersky, ivacy and other privacy and antimalware tools but when breaches like these occur, idk whether i should feel sarcastic or just lain worried.

It’s an evening to dress up and have fun, but also raise money for an amazing cause. Canapes Catering delighted guests with a variety of culinary treats and cocktails. As always, the competitive bidding of unique live auction packages was so fun (and moving!) and local band Triple Lindy provided the best music for dancing the night away.
I can’t remember how many years I’ve been photographing this even now, but it’s always so touching and I leave every time with tired feet and a happy heart.

If you've ever wished you could get a different finish from your foundation (without necessarily buying another one) then Urban Decay The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium is just the product you've been looking for.
Urban Decay The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium can be mixed into any foundation or BB Cream (as well as sunscreen) to get a velvety (not harsh) matte finish on the skin. It is completely translucent, so it won't leave any white or grey finish to the skin or in your foundation product.
All I had to do is mix a dime-size amount of the Urban Decay The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium powder into my foundation ( it can also be used with their Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Ultra Definition Liquid Makeup or Urban Decay Naked Skin One & Done Hybrid Complexion Perfector ), and instantly I had a beautiful texture and nice, matte finish. My skin felt and looked velvety smooth, yet still naturally matte.
The Urban Decay The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium didn't change the color of my foundation products or disturb how long wearing they were. I didn't get any skin irritation and it didn't cause my foundation to flake, ball up or smudge.
As far as the wear during the day, Urban Decay The Velvetizer Translucent Mix-In Medium kept its matte, velvet texture, and it also helped keep my t zone from getting as oily as it normally would (but this is not an oil blotting or mattifying product).

Ellie has accumulated a high level of experience and practice both as a Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist and as a Diagnostic Radiographer.
Ellie trained with Franklin Sills at the Karuna Institute for Craniosacral Therapy (CST) in 2011 and prior to that she was a radiographer for many years graduating from St. Bartholomew's Hospital in London. Having become increasingly aware that orthodox western medicine tends to treat the disease rather than the holistic person as a whole, Ellie’s interest now centres on the holistic approach to health.
She has worked with many patients who have been touched by cancer or a long term condition and specialised in working with women with breast cancer. Subsequently she has a wide medical knowledge and expertise.
Since graduating from Karuna, Ellie has also undertaken a number of post graduate courses, include working with neurological and chronic fatigue syndromes, dentistry and trauma.
Ellie also offers low cost sessions at Koorana for those who have had a diagnosis of cancer, either recently or in the past and chronic fatigue conditions.

The Cult sold out show at the Music Hall in Aberdeen was the hottest ticket town, having been sold out for quite a while. They were promoting a new album called "Hidden City" and this was their first UK tour in 3 years. It was also the first time the band had played Aberdeen in 29 years.
The festival is four days long and centres around the Camden area of London. With many shows and exhibits over the festival, it is hard to catch it all. Here some of my highlights.
A good family all round fun night out. There was plenty of diversity in the acts with jugglers, acrobats, clowns and tight rope walkers. Children loved the funny bits and the constant stream of one act after another. Adults were wowed by awesome feats of agility and daring.
One of this year's headling acts was causing a major controversy - Metallica, a brave choice by Michael Eavis. Heavy metal was coming to the Pyramid stage, where so far no metal band had graced the stage. The previous day lightning had forced the closure of some area, but when Metallica took to the stage there was electricity in the air.
Very hot and got hotter over the weekend. Ended up over 100 degrees by the end of the festival. At least there were bars with fan misters in an attempt to keep people cool.
Big congregation of punks (black clothes in the heat was not great!) average punters walking around Downtown were surprised by the amount dyed and spiky hair styles!
Aberdeen’s bearded community came out in force to see what The Beards were all about. The band certainly lived up to their name, with 3 albums all about beards and a new one on the way it was no surprise every song was about beards!
The Zombies, Animals & friends, the Yardbirds, Maggie Bell, and Dave BerryWith this amazing line up that has had up to 37 hit records in the uk charts for over 300 weeks you are guaranteed an unforgettable night. And we wasn’t disappointed.
2014 Started with me getting an email from the www.thepopcop.co.uk to say i had won there annual Scottish Music photo of the year award, with my photo from Hayseed Dixies 1000th show in Glasgow.
Aberdeen we have a cracking show coming to town, if you’re looking for a good night out to be on the 15th Feb, the music hall is the place to be.

Siobhan qualified eight years ago from Cork and she has worked in a rural general practice ever since. Siobhan and her young family recently moved back to Cork where she started work in a new town centre practice.
With a young family Siobhan was concerned about the effect of a long term illness on the household finances and chose Dentists’ Provident for her income protection needs. She chose the Select income protection plan as she wanted flexible and high quality cover with the peace of mind of having guaranteed premium rates.
Siobhan earns €100,000 a year and has gone for the maximum cover based on her income of €5,750 a month. She chose a waiting period of four weeks, which means she would only be able to claim benefits after she was ill or injured for more than four weeks.
Since Siobhan was worried about a long term illness, she chose her plan to end when she was 65 years old and for her cover to be linked to inflation.
Siobhan pays a monthly premium of €257.71 for her cover.
Brian graduated two years ago from Dublin. He is now an associate in a practice in Clara, Co Offaly. He joined Dentists’ Provident just after he graduated. He is now buying a house and has decided to buy additional income protection cover to make sure his mortgage payments and day to day expenses are covered if he could not work because of an illness or injury.
Brian earns €70,000 a year but has decided to only cover himself with €3,750 of cover a month, which roughly covers the first £50,000 of his annual income. As he already has cover of €1,950 from before, he has decided to take out monthly cover of €1,800 under the Select income protection plan.
Not having a huge disposable income, because of his other financial commitments, Brian decided not to take any optional features. He also chose reviewable premiums, where the starting cost is lower than guaranteed premiums. This allowed Brian to have cover from his first day of illness or injury and stay within his budget.
Brian pays €82.40 in total for the cover under his two plans.
Ciara is a 42 year old dentist and keen mountain biker. On her principal’s recommendation she took out her income protection plan with Dentists’ Provident some years ago, when she worked as one of three associates in a Gorey practice.
She is now a practice owner of a small mixed practice in Wexford and even though she receives some income from the practice, it does not cover all her personal financial commitments. She was paid €8,000 in benefits last summer, when she broke her collarbone after she fell off her bike and was off work for a few months. This allowed her the chance to recover from her injury, without worrying about the household finances.
John is a 46 year old consultant maxillofacial surgeon. As well as working in a Dublin hospital, he has a private clinic and is also a part time university lecturer. John has a policy with another insurer which covers his hospital earnings and a plan with Dentists’ Provident to cover his income from the university and private clinic.
He has two young children and is usually busy juggling his personal and professional commitments. But the last few years have been different; last year he went back to work after taking an entire summer off due to problems with his shoulder and neck, which meant he was in too much pain to work. As he had made sure his income protection cover was up to date, he still received an income to fund his family's lifestyle.

The City of London’s square mile will adopt 20mph speed limits in an attempt to cut the number of deaths and serious injuries on the capital’s roads.
The Corporation of London yesterday voted to reduce the current speed limits, with the City of London police stating they will ‘actively enforce’ the rule.
Islington and camden already have a 20mph blanket limit, though the MET ‘only enforces the rule when resources allow’.
Sustrans commented on the news stating: “A 20mph speed limit would save lives and make the streets in London’s city centre better places to walk, cycle and socialise. Slowing speeds improves public health by allowing people to be more active, significantly reducing the burden on our health system.
Next Are consumers getting the message about cycle insurance?

Investors in Asia are cheering as bargain hunters lead a reversal of fortunes for Chinese equities, with the Shanghai Composite up around 5% at the time of writing after dropping approximately 3.2% at the open and around 32% in the last month. Investors are reversing an earlier push towards safe haven currencies like the yen, with so-called risk currencies lead the charge in Asia. Backed by strong Australian employment and Chinese inflation figures, the aussie is the biggest beneficiary in the FX world after being hit hard by the sell-off in China’s equity markets in recent weeks (see: A glimmer of light on the horizon for AUDUSD).
The ASX 200 and the Hang Sang have managed to claw back into positive territory after opening in the red, while the Nikkei 225 is almost flat after dropping over 3% shortly after coming online today; the latter market is still suffering due to a still strong yen. Although today’s rally in Asia is encouraging, it’s worth noting that it’s not a game-changer. After all, China’s equity exchanges have a lot of lost ground to make up and there’s still the looming threat of a Greek exit, thus investors are likely to remain fairly nervous heading into the end of the week.
The Nikkei is particularly in-tune with investor sentiment, partly because of the attractiveness of the yen as a safe haven play. If this rally in China turns out to be more than just a bit of bargain hunting and Greece can find some common ground with its creditors, we may see a more meaningful retracement in the yen which could encourage Nikkei bulls (the index is down around 8.8% from its high in June). 20,000 is a very important level for the index, and a break back above here would push our technical bias back into bullish territory – a bearish head-and-shoulders pattern has been completed.

A dad has come under fire online after telling his wife she would have to pay for baby formula from her own pocket if she wanted to stop breastfeeding.
The man originally posted on Reddit to say he wanted his wife to pay for replacement milk if she was going to stop feeding their baby herself.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the tight father deleted the post after receiving abuse but it was quickly shared on Twitter, reports the Mirror.
He wrote: "She has been breastfeeding for six months since the baby was born and now wants to switch to formula. She makes plenty of milk and everything she just says she 'feels done'.
The husband's suggestion wasn't taken kindly on Twitter.
One woman said: "She should invoice him for the hours spent nursing/pumping and take that out of his budget."
"Replace all the milk in the house with breast milk and tell him if he wants regular milk it comes out of his expenses," suggested another.
One reply read: "Breastfeeding is only free if you consider her time as worthless."

The scene was witnessed by Infowars reporter Joe Biggs who was also filming the incident. The clip shows a Ferguson officer with his gun raised pointing it directly at a citizen journalist who was live streaming at the time.
Another clip shows the officer pointing his gun as protesters demand he lower the weapon. A second cop intervenes to make the officer lower his weapon as more irate demonstrators demand to know the officer’s name.
The officer’s response to people asking for his name almost immediately prompted the launch of the Twitter hashtag #officergofuckyourself.
Biggs live tweeted the incident, while Infowars reporter Mikael Thalen also had guns pointed at him during a separate incident.
The incident is certain to stoke huge controversy given that authorities in Ferguson have repeatedly broken promises to de-escalate tensions amidst continued unrest.

It's happening. We are moving onto the boat. Our apartment looks like a squatter* and all our belongings are in giant zip lock bags or bins and split between land and lake. Oh how quickly things change!
Our estimated departure is this Monday - and we are working around the clock to make sure that happens!
Well...I guess we're not working completely around the clock as I am off to dinner in a few. How dull would *literally* "working around the clock" be anyway!? If there is one thing I know how to do - it is to have fun and kick back in the midst of madness. You just gotta step away sometimes. Smell the roses. Have a laugh. Drink some vino. It's a gift, I know.
More updates soon...for now, I am going to scarf down a chopped salad, some Sauvignon Blank and enjoy the company of my very best friend.
PS. No, I did not leave Scott working alone on the boat (although, truth be told - it has occurred once or twice when a friend with wine calls). He's having a dinner dockside with our friends Cody and Jim for Jim's birthday, so I am not the only one yucking it up.
*Fun factoid I learned while Google image searching: there is an advisory site for "squatters" in the UK. Man. If you are either super bored or interested in squatting in the UK - take a look at this site. What is hysterical is that on the site they say, without a hint irony, that their office is "a bit tricky to find".
Wow! How exciting to be ready to cast off the dock-lines and be on your way. I'm looking forward to following the culmination of all your hard work and the wonder of your future adventures.
It had been my very first cope with Movers and i am absolutely pleased with their Shifting and packaging service! Moving estimate Men had been really friendly and professional; they taken apart my personal furniture very quickly and loaded my belongings within the 26ft vehicle. We moved to townhouse as well as men carried all my employees up the steps extremely fast and no scratches!!!

CapeClarke Legal Recruitment is demonstrating, once again, its commitment to trainee solicitors across the North of England by hosting the first Newly Qualified Careers Evening in conjunction with the Manchester Trainee Solicitors Group.
The event will be taking place on Wednesday 13 February at Dirty Martini on Peter Street, starting at 6pm. At the event, we will be providing all of the information trainee solicitors require to navigate their way through the qualification process. We advise on both internal and external processes and assist trainee solicitors on securing roles either within their training firms or externally in the relevant legal market.
This careers talk is the latest in a recent string of successful events run in partnership with the Manchester Trainee Solicitors Group. We were also the headline sponsor of the annual showpiece Winter Ball, which was held at the Principal Hotel, and the new Manchester Trainee Solicitors Group launch event in October 2018. Both events were really well attended and it was clear to see everyone had a fantastic time.
We are looking forward to hosting Manchester’s trainee solicitors on Wednesday 13 February, where there will be plenty of food and drink to help digest the information being disseminated on the evening.
Please contact Geoff Baines on 0161 3000750 or geoff.baines@capeclarke.com if you would like to attend.

Moody skies. A cliff. An abandoned stroller . . .
On August 21st the solar eclipse will, in some locations, turn day into darkness. I wish you could know what the day means for our family.
On this day a year ago, an unwanted child was born to a drug-addicted mother and unknown father.
The parents would not cradle or feed or rock their baby girl.
They’d never be the metaphorical sun and moon watching over her world.
The baby, traumatized by Lithium withdrawal, could not settle and would not eat.
Our daughter, Rachel, agreed to work with her in the Neonatal Care Unit.
Love ignited their first moments together.
Rachel took this baby . . . into her heart.
Irresistibly drawn, she and her husband would rescue her, raise her, and nurture little Kiki into wholeness.
Perhaps Kiki sensed she’d been chosen, because she relaxed. She ate and slept. Her new responsiveness to love lit up the room.
Ongoing drug withdrawal consumed compassion, patience, and stamina.
During one night shift, tightly swaddled, Kiki could not bear to be touched, and I carried her around and around the house on a cushion. As with so many of our solutions, the pillow trick only worked once.
Weeks passed. Red-eyed and shaky with fatigue, Rachel and Damon agonized over her anguish. She shrieked and flailed.
Is this what it means to be chosen and cherished by God?
To be rescued, again and again—no matter what. To be made part of a family, given a new name.
Sometimes few words are needed. Touch is all.
People who follow total eclipses wonder: Is our equipment good enough? Will the clouds part? We’ve come all this way . . . what if the wonder eludes us?
As caregivers, sometimes we miss glimmers of light when our loved one’s pain is vast and their progress, incremental.
We doubt our ability. God seems remote. Hidden.
Who will hold us and say, “I’ve got you.”?
We turn to “the man with starlight in his veins,” as writer Brian Doyle once called Jesus.
Then we offer ragged presence.
On the solar eclipse we’ll celebrate her first birthday . . . at the courthouse. We’ll witness the finalization of her adoption. She’ll be formally chosen, again, and for always, in a court of law . . .
. . . with all manner of declarations and testimonies, photos and signatures.
Can you imagine the hugging? No words needed. Touch is all.
Talk about an outsider! Connoisseurs of the quirky might enjoy this state champion Camperdown Elm. I do.
This was my chosen site for a recent birthday photo-op (thank you, Bill).
Turning 65 was a tough transition. The elm’s wizened, erratic creepiness made me feel young and lithe.
Viewed from below, branchwork resembles beached octopi. Or Medusa’s headpiece with thrashing snakes.


text: Ugh. Terribly blah, bleak, and the worst movie-crime of all: BORING. I may have fallen asleep, though my face probably revealed no difference. Kudos to Ah-nuld, however, for taking a risk. As they say so ungrammatically, "You miss every pitch you don't swing at."

Westminster is open for business. During May, businesses that register with the city will have their business license tax waived for a year. The Business Tax Holiday program was unanimously approved by the Westminster City Council last week.
The idea was proposed by Mayor Tri Ta and is in honor of National Small Business Week, which is in May. The policy should become a mainstay of the city’s business recruitment plans because why a business has to pay to register with a city has always been a dubious proposition.
Currently, the city’s business license tax is based on sales receipts and falls somewhere between $223.50 and $2,623.50, “depending on the type of businesses,” according to a city staff report. In May 2014, 97 new businesses registered with the city and generated $16,612 in fees.
The system in Westminster isn’t particularly distinct from those in a number of other O.C. cities that link their business licenses taxes to receipts, but it seems questionable why such a system needs exist at all.
Irvine Councilman Jeff Lalloway recently proposed ending that city’s business license program; his colleagues chose to study the issue more, instead. Councilwoman Beth Krom said she was concerned with the plan and that the information gathered through the program was important for public safety.
Some of Mr. Ta’s fellow council members also showed hesitation, and expressed concern over interrupting a revenue-generating program when the city faces at $3.1 million deficit.
We contend that business license taxes are simply a money grab by municipalities.
If the concern is a proper accounting of the businesses in a city, look to Mission Viejo, which keeps track of its businesses and doesn’t charge for business registration. Lake Forest has an entirely voluntary registration system that hasn’t resulted in mischief. It is fair for a city to want to keep a running inventory of the number and nature of its businesses, but why the business must pay for that accounting has always eluded us.
Mr. Ta, like Mr. Lalloway, is on the right track.

The statistic illustrates the distribution of new bicycle sales in the Netherlands from 2007 to 2017, by category. As of 2017, roughly 30 percent of the new bicycles sold were electrical bicycles, an increase of 25 percent when comparing it to 2007. The hybrid bicycles were in a slight decrease, where in 2010 ten percent of the bicycle sales were hybrids, in 2017 it was five percent. The normal tour or city bicycles faces the same with a sales loss of ten percent in six years. However, even though the demand for electric bicycles increased, the share of normal tour of city bicycles sales remained higher with roughly 40 percent. Nevertheless, the decrease of roughly 20 percent in the share of sales in normal tour or city bicycles between 2007 and 2017 indicates a change in the bicycle industry and a rise in the share of electric bicycles sales. The rise and demand of new electric bicycle sales is in line with the import values. Between 2012 and 2015, the import value of electric bicycles increased with approximately 22 million euros.

IgA Nephropathy is a kind of kidney disease characterized by inflammation on glomeruli, which is caused by immunoglobulin A deposition. Is it OK to take 6 cod liver oil capsules per day with IgA Nephropathy?
Cod liver oil contains high concentrations of vitamin A and D. Taking cod liver oil in the same amounts that are recommended for fish oil can be toxic, and even more so in people who have Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) (because vitamin A can build up to toxic levels). Kidney patients should steer clear of cod liver oil until they consult their nephrologists.
In general, 6 to 12 capsule of fish oil is OK for IgA Nephropathy, but it is not applicable for cod live oil. Therefore, whether 6 cod liver oil capsules is OK for IgA Nephropathy should be based on the patient’s own illness condition. You can send your test report to us at kidney-symptoms@hotmail.com or leave a message below. Our doctor on duty can help you to analyze it, and give you some suggestions.
● Hypertensive drugs. This kind of medicine include ACE inhibitors and ARBs, which are the preferred agents for lowering blood pressure and are also reported to be effective for reducing proteinuria.
● Steroids. Commonly used steroid is prednisone for IgA Nephropathy.
● Fish oil (omega-3 fatty acids) at a dose of 12 g/d has been used in IgA nephropathy.
● Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy. This therapy is an external application used on bilateral Shenshu acupoints. With osmotic device, the effective ingredients can permeate into kidney lesions directly. This method cannot not only relieve symptoms but also enhance kidney function.
If you are interested in our natural medicines, please be free to contact us directly. This consultation is free.

St. Louis Days of .NET delivers again!
Last week a bunch of us at Engage went to Days of .NET. Many of us have attended this conference for years and have always left feeling completely geeked out. This year was no different.
It is clear that Microsoft has been working hard on its cloud offering, Microsoft Azure, with what seems like an all-out sprint to become a major player in the cloud space. Azure is a space where Engage will be focusing more on in 2015.
While at the event I took the opportunity to sit in on several talks around Continuous Delivery and the tools that are available in Visual Studio 2013. There is an overwhelming number of features available in Premium and Ultimate Versions. Here is a short list of the tools I found particularly interesting.
Release Management Portal – Microsoft acquired InRelease back in June of 2013 which is a solution for automating deployments. This tool is being positioned as just one part of Microsoft’s strategy for the new DevOps methodology that is being adopted by many companies. The tool itself provides a central place for managing and deploying bits to any number of environments. The process is complete with the concept of an “Approver” and scheduling of release off hours so you don’t have to be there.
Cloud based Load Testing – This one was particularly interesting since most applications we create these days are load tested either by an internal or external resource or company. Anyone who has tried to setup real load testing knows that this can quickly turn into an infrastructure nightmare just trying to get the appropriate hardware configured and in place. With Azure, you get 15,000 virtual users free with your Azure subscription AND you can load test applications that aren’t even running in Azure.
Visual Studio Intellitrace – With Visual Studio Ultimate you can record specific events that happened in your applications and play them back later including examination of the locals window variables! How many hours have you spent trying to recreate an issue that only happens in the production environment? Very nice.
The list goes on and on. As usual, it’s hard to leave an event like this without learning something.

Britain’s roads are getting worse with one in six of them classed as in poor condition. The result is a backlog of 13 years’ worth of required repair work. The most accurate survey into the state of the nation’s carriageways now shows the number of potholes being filled in England and Wales is up by a third to 2.7 million. And it reveals that the amount of compensation paid to drivers whose vehicles have been damaged by unavoidable holes in the road has rocketed. Here are the main findings of the 2015 Annual Local Authority Road Maintenance (ALARM) survey of councils, produced by the Asphalt Industry Alliance (AIA).
The total number of potholes filled across England and Wales last year came to 2,670,350. That means each council filled on average 15,706 potholes. Local authorities believe it will cost £12.16 billion to bring all the nation’s roads up to scratch. Based on current budgets, it would take 13 years to clear the current maintenance backlog.
The amount of money paid to road users whose vehicles have suffered damage through potholes has doubled since last year. Local authorities in England and Wales (excluding London) paid £20.2 million to compensate drivers. However, while the sums have increased from £11.1m in 2014, the number of claims is broadly the same. On average, each local authority dealt with 544 claims in the 2015 report, up from 540 the year before and just 300 in 2011. See how to claim here.
Britain’s roads: Why are they in such a poor state?
In short, a lack of funding for years on end. As successive governments have cut budgets for Britain’s roads, carriageways are now only fully resurfaced once every 63 years on average. The result is councils are forced to carry out work that’s known as reactive maintenance. Since carriageways are so old, the amount spent on these fixes is almost double the ideal proportion of local authority roads’ budgets. In England, this stood at 23 per cent where the ideal proportion is 12 per cent.
Britain’s roads: What’s at the root of the problem?
The ALARM survey puts the pothole proliferation down to the continuing trend for wet winters, record rainfall and severe flooding. It concludes: “Water is the most severe threat to road conditions in this country as it can undermine the lower, structural layers which, if not quickly rectified, can lead to major damage that is both costly and time consuming to repair. Unfortunately, the effects are often only seen on the surface and treatments there may not be sufficient to address the underlying cause.” More than a third of local authorities reported unforeseen costs as a result of adverse weather. This average additional cost per authority has seen a three-fold increase in England from £1.6 million in 2014 to £5.7 million this year.
Britain’s roads: Are they getting any better?
