Poland's Blake Wilson intercepted the pass attempt to seal the victory for the Bulldogs.

POLAND For the second year in a row, a memorable Marlington comeback against Poland on opening night fell just short.

The Dukes recovered an onside kick in the final five minutes and punched in a 14-yard touchdown run by Anthony Sabatino with 1:22 to play to get within a point. Marlington could have tied the game with an extra-point kick, but the Dukes elected to go for two and the win.

"I always look at what the situation is and I also ask the players what they want to do," Marlington head coach Mark Gulling said. "There was no doubt in their mind what they wanted to do in that situation. The decision wasn't hard."

Unfortunately, it didn't pan out. Poland covered the two-point conversion pass play well, with Blake Wilson making an interception to seal the 24-23 win.

"We were expecting something different from them defensively," Gullling said. "They went straight man. We thought they were going to switch off and we could sneak a little pig tail route in. Unfortunately it didn't work out."

It was a seemingly improbable scenario after Marlington found itself down 24-10 with just eight minutes to go. Once again the Dukes showed their character.

CJ Greiner threw a nice 42-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Carr to cut the lead to just one score. Marlington then recovered an onside kick with under five minutes left. That set up the 14-yard TD run by Sabatino with 1:22 to play to give Marlington the opportunity to go for the win.

"The guys played well and they showed a lot of heart," Gulling said "Sometimes you just come up on the short end of the stick. I'm proud of the kids and the way they fought. We're going to move on and continue to get better."

Greiner was 15-of-28 passing for 230 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions. He also ran for 83 yards on 12 carries.

Ryan Cooley caught eight passes for 103 yards and a touchdown. Carr hauled in two passes for 68 yards.

A poor third quarter may have decided the game. Marlington had two three-and-outs and a lost fumble that resulted in Poland taking over inside the Marlington 34-yard line three times. That resulted in 17 points.

"We put a lot of pressure on our defense," Gulling said. "We put them in a bad spot and Poland completely changed their offense at halftime. They went from the spread back to the old stack backfield and they had a lot of success with it."

Senior running back Jake Rutana had 15 carries for 82 yards and two TDs for the Bulldogs. Joshua Alessi added 87 yards on 11 carries.

Poland's passing game sputtered in the first half and Marlington controlled the clock and field possession. The Dukes ended up with a 3-0 lead at the break on a 42-yard field goal by sophomore kicker Macagey Laure.

Marlington lost to Poland 17-14 last year when a last-second field goal attempt fell just short. The Dukes are now 2-6 in openers against the Bulldogs to start the season.

Beauty Demystified: Choosing the Right Nude Lip Colour For You

Nude lipstick can be a tricky divil. Wear the wrong one for your skin tone and you can instantly look like you're channeling '90s supermodels with brown lipstick (in a bad way) or so washed out that you have a blood disorder. Mostly, that's not the look you'll want to go for.

Choosing the right nude lip for you is actually - and I mean this literally - the easiest makeup skill there is. And that's without exception. It does, however, involve the letting go of illusions - the nude you like the look of most isn't necessarily the one that looks best on you, so you have to let it go.

It took me years to learn this. I'd see a beige or peachy nude on someone and just love the way it looked. So I'd buy it and wear it even though it just didn't work for me. A nude that you don't particularly like in the bullet can look just beautiful on the lips, so try to keep an open mind.

Here is how you choose the perfect nude lipstick for you.

Step one

  • Look in the mirror in daylight, and take note of the natural colour of your lips.

That's it. Your perfect shade of nude. In a way it's a pity. We always admire on others what we don't have ourselves, so my favourite nude shades are the browny peach ones that look radiant on olive skin. If I try to wear them myself, though, I just don't look right!

The nude lip which will look best on you one hundred per cent of the time is a lipstick as close as possible to your natural lip colour. When you're shopping around, either swatch a bunch of possible candidates on your hand and hold them to your lips, or hold the bullet near your lips for comparison. Don't actually apply testers straight to your lips, though. Hygiene. Bleugh!

That's all there is to it. Your 'natural' colour in a lipstick will bring out your lips, make them look more structured, and perfectly compliment your skin tone every time. Of course the rules change if you're wearing tan, in which case you have to wear something suited to the skin tone you're sporting that day. Au natural, though, your natural colour - or something close - is always what looks most at home.

Here are some real beauties to test out next time you're on the lookout for your perfect nude!

  • Charlotte Tilbury's sumptuous makeup collection is new to Brown Thomas, and we're very glad to have it on our shores. Nude Kate (above left), €30, is a divine nude pink for those with paler skins and lips.
  • Cruising from Nars (€26) is one of my all time favourites for naturally pink lips with a slightly blue undertone. It is more of a neutral pink beige than it looks in the above image, and compliments fairer, pink based skins perfectly.

  • The Balm's lipstick in Mai Billsbepaid (€14.50) is my Holy Grail nude lipstick, and I only discovered it a week ago! My own lips are naturally a bit pinker than I'd like them to be, but this lipstick is the best match I've ever found. Even though I wish I had a more beige undertone to my natural lip colour, this is the lipstick that looks best, hands down.
  • Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Canotier (€31) is a lipstick to fawn over. It's just so pretty, and the sheer glossy finish looks great on everyone. If you have slightly more olive but still fairish skin, odds are that your lips will have a little more of a naturally warm or brownish hue to them. This is the one for you!

  • Another offering from the Queen of Makeup, Charlotte Tilbury, Penelope Pink (€30) is perfect for anyone with a slightly deeper pink hue to their natural lips.

  • Not to forget those more definitely olive-toned peeps (you lucky things!) can get away with a beiger nude. Myth from Mac (€19.50), top left, is a glorious sandy peach that looks great on more Hispanic or Mocha-hued skin.
  • Finally, for those with deeper skin tones, Fresh Brew (€19.50), also from Mac, will give naturally deep lips the most beautiful sculpted finish and light sheen.

So that's it; the secret's out! Your best nude is the one that's already sitting on your face!

Does anyone disagree? What are your ultimate nude colours? Share in the comments and maybe we can all add to our nude repertoire (that sounds wrong, but you know what I mean. I'm not talking about playing the accordion in the nip or anything.)

How to Lower Blood Pressure Naturally

How to Lower Blood Pressure Naturally Fruits and Salads
Keeping tabs on blood pressure is something we all should do.

You could have borderline or high blood pressure and not always know it until being diagnosed and given medications. However, there are some additional steps that you can take for lowering blood pressure naturally that could help improve your health.

The more weight that you carry around, the more forceful the blood travels through the walls of your arteries. As a result, the heart works harder circulating that blood to all the vital organs that can put you at risk for a heart attack or stroke over time. The extra weight also causes sleep apnea, further raising your blood pressure because of what it does to hamper breathing at night.

A waist that has expanded with more fat around the middle also invites heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Get a measuring tape and place it just above the hipbone. Take your measurement there after exhaling. If you’re a woman and find that your waist is 35 inches or more than 40 inches if you’re a man, then this can increase those two risks.

Losing just a few pounds can make all the difference for a better reading when tested for lowering blood pressure naturally. Though exercising can seem like a chore, it can also help pare down the waist and overall health. Devote at least one-half hour on a regular basis to some form of exercise.

Walking or swimming might be more pleasant ways to be more active. All the best intentions often fail when jumping into some strenuous or expensive exercise program that you may not be ready to commit to. Sometimes, it is better to gradually ease from a sedentary lifestyle into an exercise regime to stay with it.

The Connection Between Food and Blood Pressure

According to one study, researchers found that a common similarity of those with high pressure usually is a deficiency in calcium. This is calcium directly from dairy products and not just a vitamin supplement. Apparently, the calcium supplement did help those that were mildly hypertensive in lowering blood pressure somewhat, but not very much to matter for those with higher blood pressures. The best results were supplementing their diets with more low-fat dairy products in the forms of milk, cheese and yogurt.

If you’re a big fan of cottage cheese, ricotta cheese has more calcium and tastes just as delicious if you enjoy a dish with some sliced, fresh fruit for lunch. You can also try adding it in a quiche filling, cheesecake, lasagna recipe or a tuna casserole.

Another excellent way to fortify your diet with more dairy is adding more nonfat dry milk to your recipes or a glass of skim milk to boost up your daily calcium levels. You don’t need to completely alter cooking or your lifestyle all that much for health benefits. Try adding two tablespoons of dry milk to a cream sauce, a fruit smoothie, yogurt, creamy salad dressing, cream soups, and puddings, etc. help in lowering blood pressure naturally.

It is a fact that Americans eat too much sodium whether you blame the salt shaker or prepared foods. One teaspoon of salt has 2,300 milligrams of sodium, which is all that you should have in an entire day. The recommended level of daily sodium is 1,500 milligrams. Therefore, try to gradually salt your food less and turn to herbs to bring out the flavor. Make my Herb Salt Substitute recipe and Herbal Salt-Free Seasoning Blends to replace the salt in your shaker can help in lowering blood pressure naturally.

Excessive sodium in your diet also causes your body not to have enough potassium, another common factor in those with hypertension. Sodium does such a great job of draining the potassium because it causes frequent urination and the potassium loss with it.

Be that as it may be, adding more potassium-rich foods can also help in lowering blood pressure naturally. Fresh vegetables and fruits such as sweet or baked potatoes, leafy greens, squashes, avocado, banana, berries, legumes, soy nuts,  salmon and other fatty fish high in omega-3s to healthier grains like oatmeal can work.

What I’m sharing is not meant to replace seeing your medical doctor or medications. All I intended here is encouraging you to take the time to monitor your blood pressure and trying to eat a healthier diet because doing so can improve your odds of lowering blood pressure naturally.

    Very interesting article. I had no idea that high blood pressure might be caused from a deficiency in calcium!

    Hubby has borderline high blood pressure. Salt intake is huge for him. I can tell when he has had oo much. I hadnt thought of calcium,but he does well eating milk and other things that contain calcium.

      What about any prescriptions he may take? Though I’m not a doctor, drugs do have other effects. Sometimes, changing a prescription could work differently in his system or with any other drugs that he was prescribed to help with this problem. Does he eat a lot of fruit or vegetables?

  3. ellen beck
    July 28, 2018 / 7:28 pm

    He actually eats a ton of vegetables. Fruits not so much. We eat a whole lot of broccoli and cauliflower and most other things.

Beaudry Electric is a full service distributor for major encoder manufacturers. Each manufacturer we represent offers a range of models targeted to specific industries or application types. The breadth of their combined offering allows us to satisfy the majority of application requirements.

Rotary encoders are electro-mechanical devices that convert the angular position of a shaft as it rotates through 360 degrees or more to an analog or digital signal. In addition to recording a specific angular position it is also able to record the number of shaft rotations that occur over a period of time.

There are two types of encoders: absolute and incremental. The output of absolute encoders indicates the current position of the shaft, making them angle transducers. The output of incremental encoders provides information about the motion of the shaft, which is typically further processed elsewhere into information such as speed, distance and position.

Rotary encoders are used in many applications that require precise shaft position and rotation tracking—including industrial controls, robotics, CNC equipment and many other motion control devices used to accurately locate workpieces in the manufacturing process.

Benton Street Baptist Church

Benton Street Baptist Church is located in the heart of historic Kitchener, Ontario. It was founded as the first German Baptist church in Canada in September, 1851 when an organizational meeting for the formation of a local German Baptist Church was held in the Free Church at Bridgeport. The charter members included three from New York City and thirteen others. Prior to the second meeting of this new church, fifteen more were baptized. Soon other preaching centres were established in Shingletown, near New Hamburg, and in Woolwich (Elmira). In 1852 the Bridgeport congregation built a church in Berlin (now Kitchener) on the present location of Benton Street Baptist Church.

Benton was a German-speaking church for more than sixty years, changing to all English in 1918 after the conclusion of World War I. A large sanctuary was built in 1883 with Sunday School facilities expanded in 1901, 1927 and in 1953. The main building was destroyed by fire in 1963 and the present facility was opened in 1965.

Commencing in 1929, and continuing for over sixty years, the church broadcast weekly messages over the radio. Many of the members have engaged in missionary evangelism and several have entered the ministry. In these 150+ years, we have had 20 Senior Pastors who have led the congregation in worship and godly living.

Locally, this church has been instrumental in helping to establish ten other local congregations. Presently, the outreach of the church touches the physical and spiritual welfare of communities locally, nationally and globally through pastors, missionaries and many members who volunteer their time and talents.

At the 100th Anniversary celebration in 1951, Pastor Leander Roblin wrote these wise words, "Life is enriched, not merely by the hours of the present through which we are passing, but by the gathering together also of the blessings of yesterdays. Thus both past and present enrich and intensify our devotion to the things that are of abiding value."

As we review our foundations, we give thanks to God for His faithfulness and guidance over the years. Benton has a membership of approximately 340, with an average Sunday morning attendance of about 350. Benton is an independent, self-governing church affiliated with the Fellowship of Evangelical Baptist Churches in Canada, an association of over 500 churches throughout the nation. Our congregation is drawn from a wide area of downtown, suburban, and neighbouring communities. Throughout its history, Benton Street Baptist has stood as a flagship evangelical congregation in the community and has been known for its emphasis on Bible teaching and preaching, missions and evangelism. We believe the Bible is the Word of God and preach its message of Christ crucified, risen, living, and coming again! May it always be so until Jesus returns.

We desire our present faith to be characterized by 1 Peter 3:15, "In your hearts, set apart Christ as Lord." With such focus, we can anticipate a hopeful future for Benton Street Baptist Church, the "lighthouse on a hill" in downtown Kitchener. Our vision is to be a thriving congregation that is home to a diverse and growing family of believers united in Jesus Christ, a place where anyone can begin their Christian experience, belong to a caring family of fellow believers, and become a mature ministering disciple of Christ.

We would be thrilled to have you visit and fellowship with us!

Death Row Inmate Writes a Letter to His Mother

A death row inmate awaiting execution, asked as a last wish a pencil and paper.

After writing for several minutes, the convict called the prison guard and asked that this letter be handed over to his biological mother.

The letter said:

Mother, if there were more justice in this world, we would be both executed and not just me. You’re as guilty as I am for the life I led.

Remind yourself when I stole and bring home the bicycle of a boy like me?
You helped me to hide the bicycle for my father did not see it.

Do you remember the time I stole money from the neighbor’s wallet?
You went with me to the mall to spend it.

Do you remember when I argued with my father and he’s gone?
He just wanted to correct me because I stole the final result of the competition and for that I had been expelled.

Mom, I was just a child, shortly after I became a troubled teenager and now I’m a pretty criminal man.
Mom, I was just a child in need of correction, and not an approval.

But I forgive you!

I just want this letter to reach the greatest number of parents in the world, so they can know what makes all people, good or bad, is education.

Thank you mother for giving me life and also helping me to lose it,
Your child offender.

    “He who spares the rod hates his son,
    But he who loves him disciplines him promptly “(Proverbs 13: 24).

*** Our brown shades may be in Chocolate or Cordovan Brown...right now it is mostly the very warm and inviting Cordovan colour... ***

Suspend your cash in the middle of this thin bi-fold wallet. Yup, we got rid of the billfold area in our efforts to maintain thinness so now your cash is clipped inside the middle of the bi-fold wallet area. Multiple card slots for plastic and you have one of the smallest imprint sized bi-fold wallets in the world--barely the outline of the cash. Holds 20 plastic cards and you can fit this thin compact bi-fold wallet in any small pocket you desire--shirt, front or back pants pocket, suit pockets or under your hat. It's only 1/4" thin on the spring end and 1/8" on the thinner outside side when empty. Pull the middle metal spring area out and machine wash the rest of it just for kicks on a Sunday afternoon.

All money clips of this type, regardless of manufacturer, are made of a few parts.

If you slide the clip out of its nylon sheath you most likely will notice that the bottom 1/3 of the clip is loose. Tighten it up periodically (I liken this to when someones glasses get loose and one needs to give the two screws on either side a quick tighten) to keep the tension. But DO NOT unscrew the clip unless you are in a place where you cannot lose the two internal parts which are a small spring on top of a small ball bearing!!

With this information your Acrobat Money Clip Wallet should last you a very long time!!!

  • 1 extra-wide exterior clear ID pocket
  • 2 extra-wide credit card pockets
  • 2 extra-wide extra-deep credit card storage pockets
  • dimensions: 4 1/16" wide x 3" tall (10.5 cm x 7.7 cm)
  • only ⅛" (4 mm) thin when empty!

Exceeds my expectations
September 27, 2019
This is my second Big Skinny Acrobat Money Clip Wallet. The first one I have had for over 15 years and is still in decent shape. I chose to replace it because it was getting faded and worn looking. But in all honesty I could have still been using it as my wallet. I am keeping it as a back up incase something happens to this one. Big Skinny makes an outstanding wallet.
ProsFits all my needs and is in a small package which is the best thing. No bulky wallet filling up your pocket. Very comfortable in your pocket and holds everything that you need.

More colors would be nice.
January 2, 2018
It is bigger than I thought I would be. Cards don't stay in it as good as my old one. It is nice a well made. Just wish I would have gotten my old one again. I had the green little one. It folds over once and has two clear pockets on the inside of it. That one is small and great and wonderful. That one will be the next one that I purchase. Like I said the one that I have is great. It's just not my old one.
Merchant Response:Hi Lucy, Thank you for your feedback! Sounds like you might like our Metro wallet (no fun colors (yet*) though..Folds over once & had two inside ID pockets. At your earliest convenience, please contact our customer service team at service@bigskinny.com or 617.500.6939 and they'll be happy to work with you on finding a style that betters suits your needs. Thank you again for your review- Have a great day! BigSkinny

August 12, 2017
Haven't had it long, but so far I love it. Seems well made, has spots for all the stuff I need to put in it, and its thinner than the last wallet I had which didn't fold.
ProsWell made Lots of space for wallet stuff Thin
ConsI have no cash to put in the money clip.

I think we need to get used to the clip. Feeling kinda scared taking the wallet out every now and then worrying that the bills might fall out. Maybe it works for some but I like the regular wallets better. The other brown shade is better too in my opinion
Merchant Response:Hi Frau, The clip will be just fine :) but do let us know if you experience any issues with it. Have a great day! Big Skinny

Oxidative Stress and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Oxidative stress appears to play a role in the pathogenesis of IPF (Kinnula,V.L. et al., 2008; Janssen-Heininger,Y.M. et al., 2010; Kurundkar,A. & Thannickal,V.J., 2016).

In 2018 Anathy et al. have shown a potential new treatment for IPF by the reduction of protein oxidation in the lung.  This research group showed that fibrotic lungs have decreased GLRX (glutaredoxin-1) enzymatic activity and increased  PSSG (protein S-glutathionylation) activity.  Protein S-glutathionylation (PSSG) is a post-translational modification of proteins which contributes to the apoptotic pathway.  PSSG can be reversed by glutaredoxin-1 (GLRX).  Direct administration of Glrx protein into airways reversed increases in collagen in mice with TGFβ1- or bleomycin-induced fibrosis thus showing that GLRX and PSSG play a role in lung fibrosis.  Exogenous GLRX may potentially be used to treat lung fibrosis and so give hope to the many sufferers of IPF.

These are videos that I like: Minim Experiment and a tree

minim-experiment-dark-matterToday’s featured video comes courtesy of Minim Experiment and their song “Between.”  The album it originates on, Dark Matter, was yesterday’s daily recommendation.

You can read that recommendation here (LINK).

It’s a simple video, just a slow pan of a forest tree… but the image encapsulates the band’s sound.  There’s something very peaceful about their music, a stillness not unlike the tree, but even when the music does grow active and set in motion, it doesn’t really disturb the tranquility any more than do leaves fluttering in the breeze.

So, on that note, here’s that video…

The album is available for sale on Bandcamp.

US Beekeepers File Lawsuit Against EPA Over Approval Of Dangerous Pesticide

Published: September 21, 2019
Share | Print This

By John Vibes / Truth Theory

Beekeepers in the United States have begun to organize against a recent decision by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to allow a dangerous insecticide back on the market. The beekeepers have filed a lawsuit against the government agency for its inaction on the powerful insecticide, “sulfoxaflor.” The lawsuit cites information and statistics about the health risks to humans, animals, and insects.

The beekeepers are being represented by Earthjustice, a legal group that works on cases involving the environment. Greg Loarie, one of the attorneys with Earthjustice, says that a restriction on sulfoxaflor was removed by the Trump administration, despite scientific evidence proving how dangerous it is.

“Honeybees and other pollinators are dying in droves because of insecticides like sulfoxaflor, yet the Trump administration removes restriction just to please the chemical industry. This is illegal and an affront to our food system, economy, and environment,” Loarie said.

However, the companies behind many of the controversial pesticides on the market have also sponsored their own studies, which showed that the substances were safe. Many beekeepers question the validity of these studies, and have urged the government to look for independent studies on these matters, instead of relying entirely on corporate-funded research to make their decisions.

Michele Colopy of the Pollinator Stewardship Council, one of the many plaintiffs in the lawsuit, says that the EPA used these potentially unreliable studies to justify bringing sulfoxaflor back on the market.

“It is inappropriate for EPA to solely rely on industry studies to justify bringing sulfoxaflor back into our farm fields. Die-offs of tens of thousands of bee colonies continue to occur and sulfoxaflor plays a huge role in this problem. EPA is harming not just the beekeepers, their livelihood, and bees, but the nation’s food system,” she said.

An initial approval of the chemical was overturned by the EPA in 2013, as the result of a previous lawsuit filed by Pollinator Stewardship Council, the American Beekeeper Federation, and Earthjustice.

However, the agrochemical chemical Corteva, who makes the pesticide, has continued to lobby for its approval. Just three years later, in 2016, the chemical was re-approved with certain restrictions, then in July of this year, the Trump administration entirely removed the restrictions on sulfoxaflor.

Earlier this year, Truth Theory reported that actor Morgan Freeman turned his 124-acre ranch in Mississippi into a sanctuary for bees. Freeman said that the bees seem to appreciate his help. He has never been stung while working with the bees, and he doesn’t even wear any protective gear. If you ever felt like you would be interested in beekeeping, it is now easier than ever with simple new designs that allow people to enter the vocation with very little experience or exposure to the bees.

In addition to devastating effects on bee populations and the pollination needed to feed humans and other species, widely-used pesticides chemically related to nicotine may be deadly to birds and linked to some species' declines, according to a new study.

Pesticides sprayed in the southern U.S. to stop the spread of the Zika virus could turn the nation's honeybeesinto collateral damage. That is the warning issued by a study from the University of Exeter and the University of California, Berkeley published Friday in the Journal of Agricultural Research. The study found that 13 percent of U.S. honeybee keepers are at risk of losing their colonies from Zika spraying.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was wrong to approve the pesticide sulfoxaflor two years ago, a federal appeals court has ruled, forcing the chemical off the market. A three-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco ruled (pdf) last week in favor of a lawsuit brought by Earthjustice and others, saying the EPA erred when it approved the pesticide in 2013.

Wheel Balancing

Wheel balancing is the process of attaching small weights to a wheel in order to ensure that the weight of the wheel and tyre is distributed evenly around the axle.

If ever you notice that your car feels like it is wobbling when traveling between 40 and 50 miles per hour, or that tyres are wearing unevenly, then you may need your wheel balancing checked.

When purchasing new tyres from us we provide wheel balancing inclusive of the fitting fee.

Comedienne Sumaira Shaikh: India’s stand-up scene is new compared to the international market

Comedienne Sumaira Shaikh: India’s Stand-up Scene Is New Compared To The International Market

In this week s episodes of Comedy Shots, we will be introduced to Sumaira Shaikh. Sumaira is a psychology graduate who gave up counseling for comedy. She has not only performed as a stand-up comedian but has also written scripts for various comedy shows. Sumaira has worked with comedy group AIB and has featured on Abhish Mathew s chat show Son Of Abish . She spoke to ZEE5 about her journey from giving stand-up comedy to being on Comedy Shots .

Read the interaction here:

Q: What was your first ever performance like?

A: It was in 2015 and I was still studying in college. I just thought of trying my hand at comedy once. I had no plans on doing it for long. It was a ladies open mic. It was an all women line-up and audience. There were some bigger comedians in the audience. I thought it was going alright but I had one Joke that worked very well. It was the joke that got me recommended for an internship at AIB.

Q: So when did you decide to become a comedian and not just give it a shot?

A: Once the AIB internship happened and I continued to do open mics, I thought now I can t leave. So I just continued to do it since then.

Q: Which comedian or incident made you consider giving comedy a shot?

A: I had gone to watch a comedy show at the Canvas Laugh Club, which is no longer there. Gaurav Kapoor was a new comedian at that show. I just remembered the jokes from the show and liked how much fun it looked like. I wanted to know how to do what they were doing which is why I went for my first open mic.

Q: So you mentioned watching Gaurav Kapoor as one of the first comedians you saw live. Out of the contestants on Comedy Shots which is the comedian you excited to watch perform?

A: Okay so I don t have just one it s a small list. I am curious to see what Aadar Malik does because he is doing songs I heard. Another comedian I want to watch is Pratyush Chaubey. He is shy off-stage and I want to see him do well so that I feel like shy people can also succeed in comedy because I m shy too. That s my personal agenda for Pratyush.

Q: So as a shy person on stage did you have and pre-stage rituals to calm yourself down before performing?

A: I didn t have a ritual as such but I don t drink coffee before performing. I love coffee but when I drink coffee before going on stage it makes me anxious and it messes with my mind. That s a fear of drinking coffee I need to get over.

Q: You perform mostly in Hindi but you are equally comfortable with English. Did you make a conscious shift to performing in Hindi?

A: So earlier I used to only perform in English because I thought English Stand-up comedy meant you had to perform in English. Then I saw people performing in Stand-up comedy in Hindi. Everyone told me to do what comes naturally. That was when I started performing in Hindi because that was natural to me.

Q: You ve written for web-series like Son of Abish and Pushpavali. What is the difference in writing jokes for Stand-up comedy and web-series?

A: When you write jokes for other people you have to be less possessive about your jokes. When you do stand-up comedy you write jokes for yourself and that s it but in a writers room, you have to be more giving with your jokes. That s why I ve seen some really good stand-up comedians fail in a writer s room.

Q: What Is one fun memory from the show Son Of Abish that you remember?

A: Of course! Abish does multiple things when he is on the show. So he will be talking to us about an idea and then set up meetings or make calls on the phone through Siri. He then says something wrong and asks Siri to correct it on the phone. Eventually, he used to get into arguments with Siri. We even started doing this as a gag in front of him.

Q: You performed as a comedy duo with Urooj Ashfaq who you are also friends with. What was that experience like?

A: So we both had half an hour of material but we still wanted our own show so we paired up. It s always good to perform with a friend because before the show it is chilled out and after the show, whether you do well or badly you still have your friend.

Q: On Comedy Shots, did you take new material or did you revisit some older jokes and added jokes to them? How did you test the new jokes?

A: So for Comedy Shots, I returned to old premises I was already working on before Comedy Shots happened. I added new jokes to them and tested it out on open mics first. I don t test jokes on other comedians because I can t be that funny off-stage. Then once a comedian says a joke doesn t seem that funny it can make you start doubting if the joke is actually funny or not.

Q: You are the only female comedian on Comedy Shots. How do you feel about that?

A: Well, I certainly would appreciate more women being on the line-up. I m sure next time there will be more women who will get the chance so we can be like Yeah! There s more of us . However, I am glad to have gotten this opportunity.

Q: What do you feel about the stand-up comedy scene in India in general?

A: India s stand-up scene is new compared to the international market. However, in India, itself stand-up comedy is a decade old now. There are comedians who have kept at it and made it a proper career option. They were the ones who really did it for passion. They talk of days when there were more audience and fewer comedians. Now it s the opposite. Everyone getting into comedy now knows that it can be a career option.

UNESCO World Heritage Site #302 – Humayun’s Tomb

UNESCO World Heritage Site #302 - Humayun's Tomb

UNESCO World Heritage Site #302 – Humayun’s Tomb

From the World Heritage inscription:

This tomb, built in 1570, is of particular cultural significance as it was the first garden-tomb on the Indian subcontinent. It inspired several major architectural innovations, culminating in the construction of the Taj Mahal.

Humayun’s Tomb is the burial site of the second Mughal Emperor, Humayun. It was commissioned by his son Akbar, the third Mughal Emperor, in 1569.

The tomb is a classic example of Muslim Mughal architecture, with many of the features of the tomb appear in later constructions such as the Taj Mahal.

The detail which can be seen in the structure is impressive and costly. All of the windows are covered with a jali, which is a carved, geometric screen, cut from a single piece of stone.

Surrounding the tomb building is a charbagh, or a four-part garden, which was the Persian style. There are also several smaller tombs which are the resting places of other servants and nobles.

If possible, I’d recommend visiting Humayun’s Tomb before visiting the Taj Mahal, as it will give you a sense of development of the architecture which lead to the creation of the Taj.

10 Surprising Facts About Social Media

Social media is a key element of your web marketing strategy. Thanks to Facebook, Twitter or Google +, you are able promote your products or services. But it is also the best way to put a face on your brand and to interact directly with your customers. Social media is not something you should underestimate. Below are 10 surprising statistics and facts that you may not know about Social Media:

#1 – 56% of Americans have a profile on a social networking site

#2 – 22% of Americans use social networking sites several times per day

#3 – 189 million of Facebook’s users are “mobile only”

#4 – 60% consumers say the integration of social media makes them more likely to share products and services

#5 – 93% of marketers use social media for business

#6 – Facebook is the most addicting of the social networks

#7 – Every second two new members join LinkedIn

#8 – Every second 8000 users like some or other photo on Instagram

#9 – There are over 10 million Facebook apps so far

#10 – There are over 1 billion unique monthly visitors on Youtube

With an efficient social media strategy, you can significantly improve your customer relationships and attract more customers. Furthermore, you will increase your visibility on the Internet. Contact Blue Atlas Marketing today for more information on how to make the most of your different social media.

  1. It seems like common sense to me that more and more Facebook users are becoming “mobile only”. Think about it, a phone or tablet is so convenient for something like Facebook – there is very little reason why you need a laptop or desktop to browse the site.

  2. I’m surprised that only 56% of Americans have a social networking profile. I imagine the majority of these profiles would be on Facebook with Google+ in 2nd place. From what I understand, G+ is the fastest growing social networking site around.

  3. Cathy,

    I don’t think G+ is growing because of mainstream usage. I’m sure the fact that every gmail user has a G+ account created for them helps pad the numbers, but really there isn’t a lot of daily usage from the FB crowd!

  4. 189 million mobile users for Facebook?! That’s amazing and it shows that we really have to ramp up our mobile abilities if we are going to capture some of that audience.

  5. A collection of useful Social Media facts, many of which I did not know. This one was a shocker, “There are over 10 million Facebook apps so far”. I assume this is because there are apps in multiple languages.

  6. There are so many people of Facebook and Twitter and it has become so mainstream to post anything and everything on social media pages. I am unsure what our society is coming to when so much personal and private things are out in the open.

  7. 60% of people would engage if a business is on Facebook? I might have to start focusing some attention over to my social networks! I didn’t realize they were that powerful.

  8. I read this post twice. I am a recently graduated, now gainfully unemployed graphic artist. I launched my own business online using a number of web presences to market different products, such as banner ads graphics, custom Facebook and Twitter covers, and so on. Each website has a Twitter, Pinterest and Facebook page. My problem is I am too busy trying to run my business to maintain my social media accounts. After reading this post I realize I have to switch to focusing on social media marketing and for go the other forms of marketing I am using. Have to hire a virtual assistant to hand my SM obviously. Thanks for taking the time to post such a valuable resource.

  9. This was an eye opener! I had no idea that Social Media use is as wide spread as it is, and used so much. I’m obviously not a typical SM user. I have to look at marketing my virtual assistant services via social media more.

Apple Inc.’s top privacy executive defended the company’s use of encryption after recent clashes with law enforcement and politicians over access to information locked on iPhones.

IPhones are prone to be lost or stolen, so Apple needs to make sure the devices are encrypted to protect data such as health and payment information, Senior Director of Global Privacy Jane Horvath said during a panel discussion at the CES technology conference in Las Vegas.

She also called terrorism and child sexual abuse “abhorrent” and stressed that Apple helps law enforcement with investigations every day.

The FBI recently asked Apple to help it access information on iPhones belonging to an alleged gunman who killed three people at a Florida naval base last month. The gunman is dead and the handsets are locked by a password and encrypted, so federal investigators can’t get the device data.

“When the FBI requested information from us relating to this case a month ago we gave them all of the data in our possession and we will continue to support them with the data we have available,” Apple said in a statement on Tuesday.

Apple regularly responds to warrants by giving investigators access to data that is stored on its servers, such as users’ iCloud account information. However, the company has refused in the past to help authorities unlock iPhones to get on-device data. It has also argued that iPhone security and encryption mean that it can’t access such information even if it wanted to.

Tech companies and governments have clashed for years over balancing law enforcement access and user privacy, most famously when the U.S. sought access to an iPhone from a terrorist who carried out a deadly shooting spree in San Bernardino, California, in 2015. Apple refused to help, and the FBI eventually was able to hack into the handset. Discussions and debate have continued with little progress.

Apple has used privacy as a key differentiator, consistently pushing the message that its hardware and services are more secure than competitors. At CES, Horvath described the ways Apple minimizes data collection, or gathers information that is not tied to specific users. She cited Siri pulling up weather data for person’s city, not their exact latitude and longitude.

Horvath also said Apple puts a privacy engineer and a lawyer on each team developing new devices.

She was joined on the panel by Erin Egan, Facebook’s chief privacy officer, Susan Shook, Procter & Gamble Co.’s global privacy officer, and Rebecca Slaughter, a commissioner at the Federal Trade Commission. Apple often appears on panels to discuss its privacy policies, but this is the first time in decades that that company has had an official presence at CES.

Egan said Facebook has “a different business model than Apple, but both business models are privacy protected.” Some hardware running Facebook software, including Oculus virtual reality headsets, process data on device, Egan added. But she said that many Facebook features around sharing require cloud-based processing.

Egan also said Facebook only collects information it needs to operating its services and work with advertisers. User privacy is protected on Facebook, Egan said. Slaughter, the FTC Commissioner, disputed that assertion.

How to Drive a Zero-turn Mower

how to drive a zero turn mower

You probably already know that a ZRT mower makes the chore of cutting your grass speedy and even enjoyable. However, there’s a learning curve that comes along with these wonderful machines. Our number one priority is your satisfaction and ultimate safety.

How do you drive a zero-turn mower safely? That’s what we’ll discover today in this short guide.

You should always refer to your mower’s owner manual with questions about operating the zero-turn mower that you have purchased. Of course, contact Bobby Ford Tractor and Equipment today with questions and concerns about your current or wish-list ZRT!

How to Operate a Zero-turn Mower

If you’re wondering how to use a zero-turn lawn mower, then step right up! If you own a ZRT or are looking to purchase one, you are likely aware that mowing around shrubs, trees, flowerbeds, etc. in your lawn will be surprisingly simple.

At first, you may experience a little frustration as you learn the ropes. But if you commit to practicing, you’ll be cruising over your property with ease in no time. Probably the most difficult piece of ZRT operation is making zero-turns without destroying your lawn in the process.

Keep reading for some details that are sure to help you become a pro on your zero-turn lawn mower. And if you’re looking to make a purchase, check out Bobby Ford’s Kubota zero-turn mowers here!

How to Start a Zero-turn Lawn Mower

how to operate a zero turn mower

To start your zero-turn mower, locate and engage the parking brake. The correct starting position for your drive handles requires you to have them wide apart. Your PTO should be pushed down into the off position. Once these are in place, you can turn your key to the start position which will start the engine.

Next, pull up on the yellow PTO knob to engage the mower blades. With your ZRT engine running, place the engine in neutral. You’ll do this by pulling both levers together, right over your lap.

Finally, disengage your brake. To begin moving (and mowing), push both levers forward together at the same time. Your ZRT will move ahead straight. If you push the levers all the way out, you’ll find yourself hitting top speeds of 9 MPH. You’re ready to go.

How to Drive a Zero-turn Mower

Turning a ZRT can be tricky at first, but you’ll get the hang of it the more you practice. It’ll become second nature to you, and you’ll likely enjoy yourself immensely as you complete this necessary chore with flair and speed.

When you prepare to turn, think of what it’s like to ride a bike. If you push the left lever forward and pull the right lever back, you will turn right. In order to turn left, you’ll push the right lever forward and pull the left lever back. Be warned: zero-turn steering is extremely sensitive. And yes, you can literally turn on a dime with this thing!

Pro tip: When you make that 180-degree turn without ever even moving forward or back, you can make a pretty nasty tear or hole in your lawn. As the mower pivots around, the stationery wheels on the inside of the turn cause this to happen. A three-point turn is the answer!

When you need to slow down or stop altogether, pull those two levers back toward your lap to the neutral position. If you need to go in reverse, pull past the neutral position towards your body.

How To Use a Zero-turn Mower On a Hill

how to use a zero turn mower on a hill

It’s important to understand how to use a zero-turn mower on a hill, of course. This stands as one of the largest concerns when it comes to this specific piece of lawn equipment.

Please remember this. Making a turn while coming downhill is dangerous on your ZRT. You should never mow hills with slopes greater than 15 degrees. And when you’re moving up or down on inclines, move slowly and with caution.

Forego the changes in direction, and certainly forget about any and all sharp turns. For your safety, mow when the grass is dry, and only move up and down the hill – never side to side.

Pro Tip: If you’re questioning a hill and whether you should attempt it with your zero-turn, here’s what you should do. Back straight up that hill. If you can’t back up the hill, then consider it too steep for your ZRT.

Practice Makes Perfect

Practice. And then practice some more. You’ll be a ZRT pro very soon!

Before you go, check out Bobby Ford’s Kubota mowers and browse the site of your Houston Kubota dealer today!

Why I'm Running

The impeachment fraud is the biggest scam in American history. Democrats and their allies in the mainstream media have hated President Trump since his first day in office.

I was blessed to have a good job in President Trump’s administration, fighting to create jobs and rebuild America’s industrial heartland.

Then Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Ilhan Omar and the rest of the Democrats started their reckless and partisan crusade to remove President Trump from office based on nothing more than hearsay, hysterics, and hatred. Nancy Pelosi and her lapdog Matt Cartwright jammed through an entirely partisan impeachment, not receiving one vote from Republicans, and losing some of their voters (and one representative) along the way.

When I saw what the Democrats were trying to do to President Trump with impeachment, I decided I couldn’t stand by and watch what was happening without trying to do something about it. In America, when things you believe in are threatened, we have a duty to stand and fight.

That’s why I decided to return home to Hazleton to run for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District. I will defend President Trump from a witch hunt that will happen again and again throughout his second term unless we send a message and win back the House of Representatives from the impeachers.

Meet Jim

Jim Bognet was born and raised in Hazleton, Pennsylvania. Jim comes from a big Italian-Irish family, and he grew up surrounded by older cousins and in a tight-knit community at Most Precious Blood Catholic Church in Hazleton. Jim’s dad is a small business owner, building schools and doing plumbing and heating projects for factories across northeastern Pennsylvania. Working construction with his dad taught him the value of hard work and saving money. Jim’s mom is a high school teacher who taught him the value of education and compassion. Jim played football, basketball, and baseball at Hazleton Area High School before graduating from Penn State University on a partial academic scholarship. Jim later earned a law degree and master’s in business administration from UCLA.

Jim has fought for conservative causes and Republican principles his whole life. From interning for GOP Senator Rick Santorum, to working on his first campaign for former Congressman Lou Barletta, Jim has always believed in fighting to make his community better through conservative policies.

During the 2016 campaign, Jim attended the 2016 GOP Convention in Cleveland, Ohio to support President Trump and Vice President Pence. Jim is proud that Pennsylvania was the key state that put Donald J. Trump over the top to be elected President.

President Trump appointed Jim to a position in his administration to help rebuild our industrial heartland and to create jobs, support small businesses, and promote “Made in America” products around the world.

Now, more than ever, we need strong, conservative Republicans in Congress to support President Trump and pass legislation that strengthens our economy and protects our national security. Jim will represent Pennsylvania’s 8th District in Washington to focus on results – for you, your family, and all of Northeastern Pennsylvania.

Key Points about Diabetic Foot

  • Symptoms of diabetic foot include color or temperature changes, leg pain, swelling in the foot or ankle, open sores that are not healing, or toenails that are infected with fungus.
  • The most common risk factors for developing diabetic foot include having peripheral vascular disease or neuropathy.

People with uncontrolled diabetes are at risk of developing diabetic foot issues.

Types of foot issues caused by diabetes include:

  • Diabetic neuropathy. People with uncontrolled diabetes are likely to develop foot or ankle nerve damage. If this occurs, you will not feel pain, heat, or cold sensations. In some cases, the foot muscles will not work properly, which causes issues with foot alignment.
  • Peripheral vascular disease. Ulcers may develop or tissue death may occur if your blood is not flowing correctly through the legs and into the feet.

Diabetic foot causes

Most diabetic foot issues are caused by weak leg and foot circulation, high blood sugar, nerve damage, or wounded feet.

Diabetic foot symptoms

Signs or symptoms of diabetic foot issues include:

  • Foot skin color or temperature changes.
  • Leg pain.
  • Foot or ankle swelling.
  • Slowly healing open sores on one or both of your feet.
  • Corns or calluses.
  • Toenails that are infected with fungus.
  • Ingrown toenails.
  • Cracked skin around the heel.

Diabetic foot complications

If left untreated, diabetic foot can lead to severe complications, including:

  • Bone and skin infections that may require hospitalization.
  • A skin infection called an abscess.
  • In severe cases where diabetic foot is not caught and treated early, the foot may need to be amputated.
  • Blood flow to the toes, which causes tissue to die.

Diabetic foot risk factors

There are a variety of factors that increase your risk of developing a diabetic foot ulcer, including:

  • Neuropathy or diabetic neuropathy.
  • Peripheral vascular disease.
  • Smoking.
  • Poor blood sugar control.
  • Peripheral vascular disease.
  • Prior foot ulcers or amputations.

Diabetic foot prevention

In many cases, diabetic foot can be prevented by following these guidelines:

  • Properly monitor and control the body’s blood sugar.
  • Perform self-examinations.
  • Properly care for your feet, washing them daily.
  • Avoid hot tubs or harsh chemicals or heating pads.
  • Wear properly fitting shoes.
  • Trim nails regularly and cut them straight across.

If you are at high risk of developing an ulcer, work with your doctor to develop a follow-up treatment schedule.

Diabetic foot diagnosis

Your doctor can diagnose diabetic foot. During a clinic visit, your doctor will evaluate your symptoms, take a full medical history, and inspect your foot. Your doctor will also feel your foot pulse to determine how effectively the blood is flowing in your extremities.

Your doctor will likely order diagnostic testing, such as:

  • X-ray.
  • MRI scan.
  • Blood tests.

Diabetic foot treatment

Treating diabetic foot is a complicated process. The goal of treatment is to aid in healing as quickly as possible to prevent infection.

Your doctor may recommend any of the following treatments alone or in combination with another therapy:

  • Medications to manage blood sugar.
  • Antimicrobial medications.
  • Topical dressings.
  • Systemic antibiotics.

While most cases of diabetic foot can be treated without surgery, if conservative treatments fail and the site becomes infected, you may need surgery. Your doctor will determine the most appropriate surgery for your case, for example, shaving bone that is causing deformities such as hammertoes or bunions.

When to Seek Care

If you have diabetes and notice an ulcer, seek care immediately. Early intervention is crucial to treat diabetic foot and prevent infection and amputation successfully.

Next Steps

You must seek immediate treatment for diabetic foot. Also, once diagnosed, carefully follow your doctor’s treatment and care instructions.

The time it takes to heal from diabetic foot varies depending upon wound size, location, swelling, circulation, blood sugar levels, and the amount of pressure on the wound. Some patients will heal as soon as a couple of weeks, while others may require a few months.

If your symptoms worsen at any point during your recovery, contact your doctor right away to determine the next steps.
