And get this — if you buy a home with a Mr. Cooper mortgage, we'll pay for your move (up to 50 miles).

But we're getting too deep into the weeds. You're interested in the home loan process in Massachusetts. Why might a person need a home loan in the first place? A home loan makes it so much easier to buy a house and can also offer tax benefits in some situations. Plus, keeping your bank account full (instead of draining it on a home purchase) can help curb financial stress. These facts apply to the home loan preparation process everywhere, not just in Randolph, MA.

Houses in Randolph seem to move off the market just as fast as they come on, and you will likely want to act fast — particularly if you're on a tight timeline. We understand! Here is a summary of the essential steps when applying for a mortgage in Randolph

Begin by considering how long you'll be at your new home. Are you just passing through Randolph on your way to your forever home? Or will you be enjoying your golden years in this house? If you're going to be in the house for years and years, look into a fixed-rate loan. The interest rate on a fixed-rate home loan doesn't change (unless you refinance). But if you're planning on being in and out fast, then you might want to go the adjustable-rate route for your Randolph mortgage. Your interest rate is only fixed for a certain amount of time with an adjustable-rate loan. After that date, the rate can go up or down at specific intervals. During the pre-qualification phase, your mortgage professional can connect you with the right loan program for your situation.

Then, complete your MA lender's loan application process. The process varies from lender to lender. Still, in general, you'll need to provide the following information: Social Security numbers, pay stubs, income sources, the address of the house you'd like to buy, purchase contract, credit check authorization, banking details, and the amount of money you're looking to borrow.

From there, your lender will provide you with a loan estimate. You'll be presented with a potential interest rate, monthly payment, and estimated closing costs for the loan. Keep in mind that your loan estimate doesn't mean you've been approved or denied for a mortgage in Randolph. It's an approximate calculation, and you can get multiple loan estimates to compare and select the right loan for you.

Go through the mortgage process in Randolph with Mr. Cooper and we'll review your information and provide you with a Verified Approval letter, which is a very accurate estimate of what you could afford. This letter carries weight with realtors and home sellers because it shows you are serious and can afford a home. Not all lenders offer Verified Approval letters as Mr. Cooper does.

Ask your lender! The more questions you ask The FTC recommends home buyers to ask about the loan's annual percentage rate, additional fees, special programs, and whether the quoted rate is the lowest for that day or week.

The Final Step for a Home Mortgage in Randolph, MA

You're in control now! Review your mortgage offers and pick the offer that's good for you. Consider the details of each, from the interest rate to the loan term. A Mr. Cooper mortgage professional can even help you weigh the benefits and drawbacks of each. Following your selection, your lender may approve your loan and send over a Closing Disclosure. The Closing Disclosure is a normal part of the mortgage process, no matter where you live in Massachusetts. The Disclosure is more formal documentation of your first estimate. There could be differences between the first estimate and the disclosure. It's fair to ask about these differences.

At Your Mortgage Closing in Randolph, MA

Once your home loan is approved by the lender, it's time to close on your dream house in Randolph! During this step of the mortgage process, your closing attorney and broker come into the picture to sign off on the closing costs. Depending on your location, you might have to bring in a Randolph closing attorney to be there when you sign your loan docs. Don't worry about missing your closing date, either. We guarantee we’ll close your loan on time, or your first month’s mortgage payment (principal + interest) is on us*.

It's practically time to move in and unpack your boxes once you sign on the dotted line! You've completed the mortgage process in Randolph, and it's time to roll out the welcome mat. You are a homeowner in Randolph! And if this all sounds too simple to be true, give Mr. Cooper a call. We strive to make the Randolph mortgage process an easy one.

What to do if you have concerns for your child’s development

As a parent or carer you may be able to see that your child has a problem with their development. Some children can be slower developing than others their age but catch up later. There could be signs of:

  • A delay in their development not reaching their milestones.
  • You may notice your child is slow to understand simple words, is unable to talk, uses only a few words or has some difficulty making certain sounds.
  • Coordination or mobility difficulties.

It is important that you share your concerns with a health professional such as your Health Visitor, School Nurse or your family doctor (GP). They will provide you with practical advice and support. If it is appropriate your child may be referred to the required service for further assessment and management.

This list explains a little about the people who might be involved in your child’s care:

David & Goliath in the Valley of Elah

Sergio & Rhoda in Israel - YouTube

Hi friends! I recently came across an interesting video by a young enthusiastic couple, Sergio and Rhoda, who produce videos of sites in Israel. They visited the Valley of Elah, the place of the famous Biblical battle of David and Goliath. It is entertaining and they accurately share meanings of Hebrew words and a bit about some discoveries made there that provide evidence that is the place where David led the Israelites to victory over the Philistines.

The exciting thing is that our tour group will visit this ancient historical place in February, so it is a great intro and lays good foundation for our visit there! So, whether you’re going with us or not, cozy up with a cool drink and allow your mind to take you to this wonderful place! You will be blessed!

PS: I am not familiar with the teaching of Pastor Charlie Garrett, referenced in this video. The internet is filled with “experts,” so I encourage you to be a Berean! Compare everything you see and hear to the Word of God, and flee any teaching that doesn’t align!

Also, if you would like to see this site and others, join us on the 2021 EXPERIENCE ISRAEL TOUR February 19 – March 3, 2021. Click the EXPERIENCE ISRAEL TOUR 2021 link above for all tour information. We will take 30 on this fully-customized tour, and there are still a few seats available!

Laine's Letters And Paying Off Debt, Part 6

Since typing all of these posts out that Laine wrote, I truly see what an amazing woman of God she was and how much she depended upon His strength for wisdom and joy. I love learning from wise woman and she certainly qualifies.

As I recall, the last letter I got from her, both of her sons were married and both of their wives were pregnant. Her sons were away in the military so they both lived in trailers on her property. (I may have some of the details wrong but this is what I recall.) One daughter-in-law was so sick that she had to go back home with her family. Laine and her husband did adopt a baby girl from China. Anyways, back to counting down the 50 ways they paid off their home without her having to work outside the home. The series begins HERE.

We own a 1984 diesel Mercedes. It isn't used much since both Ken and I are home most of the time but it is nice to have around for out-of-town guests or if we need a second car for something. The insurance is cheap and it just runs and runs and runs with very little maintenance. It has over 300,000 miles in it without ever needing a new engine and it still purrs like a kitten!

25 ~ We try to keep things running with good maintenance. My husband changes the oil in the cars regularly. I keep the vacuum filters clean with regular maintenance. Likewise, the dryer lint vent, and other machines we use. It pays to keep them up, so that you won't have to buy another one due to poor maintenance. My husband always tries to fix things himself, especially our cars. He'll get a book and figure it out, get on the phone and talk to other men, then tackle the task himself. I am usually in the house praying for him.

26 ~ Many times we must wait on the Lord for something and pray. We have waited on the Lord many times during a crisis. He is always faithful. He always shows us the way. "You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on Thee, because he trusts in Thee" (Isaiah 26:3).

27 ~ I am learning that organization saves time and money. Which is why I am organizing this house and have been for many years. I didn't get into this unorganized problem overnight, so it's taking me awhile to get things in order. The better the kitchen runs, the more time and money I can save.

28 ~ "Use it up" or "wear it out" or "make do." This is definitely how we live which is how we save. And if you keep it clean, it's really not that expensive, because you don't have to buy another. My grandmother used to say it doesn't cost much to keep things clean. She was right.

29 ~ I've cut our hair for twenty years. Incredible savings here. I would estimate about a $2400 savings or more here, so that really helped us pay off our house. Plus I saved on gas getting to the hairdressers and time spent there. I learned from a book from the library and from asking hairdressers questions.

30 ~ We've never paid for a babysitter. I know that's hard to believe, but we never have. We've either swapped babysitting, had my folks babysit for special occasions, or we didn't go. We just couldn't afford babysitters and a night out on our tight budget. Our nights out were very modestly priced when we did go, which was rare, as I've mentioned before.

31 ~ We buy our clothes at thrift shops or garage sales or on sale at the stores. We've never spent a lot on clothes.

32 ~ I've been the family photographer for years. I took photography in college so our living room is adorned with shots of our kids as they grew up. In 24 years of marriage, we've only had our family picture taken professionally three times.

Bunny Ears

mama and anna

As I sit and go through pictures I have come to realize that Anna loved giving bunny ears. I remember many times telling her to put her hand down while trying to snap the perfect shot.

I love seeing how sneaky she was (sometimes not so sneaky) and I love that I’m just noticing this now.

5 thoughts on “Bunny Ears

  1. I am loving these little blogs that give us such a special insight into your family. I have noticed that there are a lot of bunny ears from Anna in your photos. Funny how some of the things that we tell are kids not to do are the little quirks that make them who they are.

Montana Climate Atlas Features MODIS Data

(Author's Note 2/18/2022: At the time of publishing these references were available online, some resources may no longer be available.)

The research team at the University of Montana’s Climate Office recently used several types of land remote sensing data in an effort to update the 1992 Montana Climate Atlas. According to the Montana Climate Office, the new Montana Climate Atlas was created in part to better understand Montana’s climate and “to spark a conversation about how climate relates to the resources and industries Montanans depend upon.” As the climate data steward for the Montana Spatial Data Infrastructure (MSDI), the Montana Climate office attempts to identify the public climate datasets that are available as a resource to answer a variety of questions about the climate of Montana. One goal of the atlas is to provide users with sample products for application within their projects.

Data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor, located on NASA’s Terra and Aqua satellites, was chosen as a primary data source for the Atlas because the sensors are able to capture data over large areas. Additionally, the sensor has a wide range of spatial resolutions, 250, 500 and 1,000 meters, as well as temporal resolutions, including 5 minute, daily, 4 day, 8 day, 16 day, monthly and yearly. All of these factors combined make MODIS a valuable resource for the state of Montana to capture its vast landscapes and observe trends over time.

In general, MODIS data products are used to monitor land cover, albedo, fire, surface reflectance, temperature and vegetation. The Montana Climate Office specifically used the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) from two different MODIS vegetation products. The 16 day, 250 meter resolution vegetation indices product (MOD13Q1) and the monthly 1 kilometer resolution vegetation indices product (MOD13A3) were used to create mosaicked vegetation products for the Montana Climate Atlas. Both of these indices can be used to monitor vegetation conditions and describe the amount of green vegetation present in an area. EVI can provide additional insight for densely vegetated areas as it reduces background variations in the canopy layer. These products were also used to derive an annual Drought Severity Index (DSI), which is used to monitor drought in the state and identify wet and dry years.

A map from the Montana Climate Atlas of the Mean Annual Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The NDVI utilized in the Atlas is derived from two MODIS products, MOD13Q1 and MOD13A3.

The team also used multiple other data sources to generate products for the Atlas including Daymet and PRISM precipitation and the University of Montana’s TopoWx temperature data, whose algorithm also uses MODIS land surface temperature data (MYD11A2). The data products created from MODIS, in-situ and other data sources will be helpful to many user communities, including those interested in the agriculture, viticulture, forestry and water resources of Montana.

The Montana Climate Atlas is available as a print edition and as well as an online edition that can be used in your browser or GIS software.

Principal Forced to Resign

The Kansas Board of Education hired Dr. Amy Robertson as the new principal of Pittsburg High School.   Maddie Baden (17) from the student newspaper decided to write an article about her. Students on the newspaper staff reviewed the article and found inconsistencies and odd details.

The school newspaper has won many regional and national awards.

Baden said, “No one knew who Robertson was.”  Baden and her fellow students began investigating the future principal’s background and credentials. Before long, the students began to realize there was something fishy about the situation.

‘The Booster Redux’ staff members had actually uncovered some articles from 2012 that actually stated Robertson’s involvement with the Dubai American Scientific School revealing  that she did not have the right to work as the institution’s principal and that the school’s license had also been suspended.

Baden later told ‘The Kansas City Star’ that the old newspapers “raised a red flag. If students could uncover all of this, I want to know why the adults couldn’t.” As a consequence, half a dozen students spent around three weeks looking into their future principal’s background. They soon discovered that they had only just touched the surface of the scandal.

The team of investigators decided to look deeply into Robertson’s past education. For example, she had said that she had received a master’s degree and a doctorate from Corllins University. Robertson also stated that she had taken online classes and also visited the campus in Stockton, California, from time to time.

Fake graduation picture.

When the students decided to check the college’s website, they couldn’t find any truth that the institution ever existed in the first place. The Better Business Bureau also claims that Corllins is not an accredited business and has no known physical address. There have actually been reports that accuse the college of being a scam that allows people to buy a degree.

Soon after, ‘The Booster Redux’ published an article on the front page of its March 31, 2017 issue, revealing everything they’ve found. Editor of the paper, Trina Paul explained that the publication had wanted to expose the truth after noticing inconsistencies in Robertson’s story.

click to enlarge

Robertson told ‘The Kansas City Star’,
“The current status of Corllins University is not relevant. When I received my MA in 1994 and my Ph.D. in 2010, there was no issue. All of my degrees have been authenticated by the U.S. government.”

In light of all the issues that arose, Amy Robertson felt that it was in the best interest of the district to resign her position.

Top 5 Tips for Budgeting Your Wedding

Weddings are expensive. There’s no way around it. But that doesn’t mean you have to go into debt to have the wedding of your dreams. With a little bit of planning and forethought, you can have a beautiful wedding on a budget. Here are our top 5 tips for budgeting your wedding:

1. Set a Budget

This may seem like an obvious one, but it’s important to sit down with your partner and figure out how much you can realistically afford to spend on your wedding. Once you have a number in mind, you can start making decisions about where to allocate your funds. Setting a budget can be hard, especially if your guest list is too big. Read our tried and true way we share with our clients on how to keep that guest list in check.

2. Prioritize Your Spending

After you’ve set your budget, it’s time to start thinking about what’s most important to you. For some couples, the food is the star of the show, while for others, it’s all about the dress. Figure out what matters most to you and make sure you allocate enough of your budget to those items.

3. Disuss Your Budget with Vendors

Don’t be afraid to discuss your overall budget with your vendors they want your business and they’re often willing to work with you to create something custom. It never hurts to ask or to see if they’re willing to throw something extra in. You may be surprised at how flexible they are.

4. DIY Where You Can

Reader view: Building a tiny house to serve those in need

Lynnwood Rotarian Debbie Bodal sent this report regarding the volunteer work that she and others did May 15 building a tiny house as part of a Rotary District 5030 community service project.

Bodal was joined by her husband Trond Bodal, an Emerald City Rotarian; and Diane Cohn, age 89, and her husband Jerry, age 94.

“The Tiny House Program is housed in the Low Income Housing Institute on Nevada Street in South Seattle. Diane and I painted the inside of three tiny houses while Jerry and Trond made 14 roof gables that will be used to build seven houses. Each house will have 60 homeless people living in it over its 20-year life span. That equates to taking 420 people off the streets.

“Diane and I were so impressed with the process of building the houses, anyone can volunteer to help make a difference. Each house costs $4,500 to build all through donations. Lowe’s donates 90% of the building supplies. Rotary clubs or individuals can sponsor a house and build it as a community service project or a birthday celebration.

“After working, several of us were able to visit the newest Tiny House Village in South Rainier Beach. The village had 45 tiny houses with a community kitchen, bathrooms and laundry facility that also had a community space for meetings, games and library. The residents share the food that they are able to purchase or that have been donated.”

According to Bodal, the Low Income Housing Institute is one of the largest providers of tiny house village shelters in the nation, ensuring that people’s experience in homelessness is as safe, dignified and brief as possible. It is operated in partnership with the cities of Seattle, Tacoma and Olympia, and with faith communities and building trade organizations throughout the state of Washington.

“Tiny houses offer tremendous benefits over tents – they are safe, weatherproof, and lockable – and the communities that we help build allow residents to reclaim their dignity and get on a path to housing in a supportive village environment,” she added.

Each tiny house has electricity, overhead light and a heater. Each tiny house village has kitchen and restroom facilities, onsite showers and laundry, a counseling office, and a welcome/security hut where donations of food, clothing and hygiene items can be dropped off.

Mental Health: A Different Perspective

Hi, friends. It’s me, Andrea! You know, the one who likes to talk about the sometimes uncomfortable topic of mental health? It’s a topic near and dear to my heart and I’m super excited because May is Mental Health Month!

If I’m being completely open with the past, it’s made me a tiny bit sad when the articles we post about this aspect of macular degeneration don't get a lot of traffic. They’re the only articles I check to see how many people have read, liked, or commented on...only because I think that the emotional aspect of a diagnosis like macular degeneration is such an important one to consider.

The feelings that come with a life-changing diagnosis can a person not have BIG and difficult feelings about something as life-changing as severe vision loss (or the threat of it)? And, why wouldn’t we want to understand and heal those BIG, difficult feelings so we can still live wonderful and amazing lives despite our diagnosis?

Can we just change the term already?

Can I be honest with you all about something? I wish the powers that be would change the term ‘mental’ health to ‘emotional’ health instead. It is just not easy to talk about mental health. It feels very intrusive with a little stigma thrown in, doesn’t it? Like something is ‘wrong’ with you. For as long as any of us can remember, people rudely use the term 'you're mental' when referring to being crazy or 'off.' And just like that ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a stigma that has proven difficult to redefine.

There's nothing wrong with having emotions

You see, what I’ve learned is that there isn’t anything wrong with me for having emotions and wanting to better understand them. It’s actually a super healthy thing to do. You wanna know why? Because when you understand your emotions (why they happen, what they’re trying to tell you, and what you can learn from them), you gain control of them...and they stop controlling you.

On your way to emotional healing

Read that again and take it in. I’d even venture to say that those of us who aren’t analyzing the emotional aspect of difficult things we encounter in our lives are a little less healthy than those of us who are. I say that with such a loving intention, friends. If you’ve read all the way down to here, I bet you’re well on your way to emotional healing.

We all go through things

Let me tell you something...every single human on this planet needs to care for their mental and emotional health. Every single person on this planet goes through things that are tough. Difficult things challenge all of our minds at some point in our lives. It isn’t anything to be ashamed of. One of our tough things here at is vision loss, but everybody has ‘something’ difficult going on...or they will at some point.

If there is one thing I know, it’s that being diagnosed with macular degeneration and vision loss is accompanied by a lot of feelings. Have you ever experienced fear from your diagnosis? Anxiety? Worry? Confusion? Concern? Anger? Sadness? Shock? Emotions are our body’s way of telling us to pay attention to something. And that, my friends, is emotional health.

Getting more in touch with my emotions

I know this because I have struggled with this feeling myself over and over again...and continue to struggle with it even many years after my diagnosis. I even have some therapy under my belt. But do you wanna know a secret? Tapping into my emotions and my mental health has been the best, most eye-opening, and amazing thing to happen to me in my entire life.

This diagnosis isn’t the end for us

So much so, that I am in many ways thankful for my diagnosis of myopic macular degeneration because it has forced me to become a ‘better’ person. I’m now thankful for my BIG and difficult emotions because they have been great teachers. Crazy how that happened, right (pun intended)?

I now understand that anger is really just a different form of fear and sadness. I can now name my emotions and talk to them. I can talk about them. I can tell them to stop. If they don’t want to stop, I can do things to make them stop like exercising and meditating. I can love myself so dang much that all of my scared goes away.

Our bodies are super intelligent

Our bodies do things without us even knowing or trying. Breathing, blinking, heart beating, feeling emotions...all of that happens to us automatically. Think about it. Do you ever tell yourself, “Self, feel fear now.”? No, you don’t. You just feel it when something scary happens - something like a scary diagnosis might I ask?

Did you know that anxiety is our brain’s way of purposefully making our bodies uncomfortable so we pay attention to something? Like, “Hello! Something is wrong...find a way to make it better, please!” And on the other side of that, feeling a sense of peace and calmness in a certain situation literally trains our brains to continue those feelings in that situation? So, when we feel anxious or scared we can go do that thing that gives us peace to calm down? It's pretty neat stuff.

We can’t prevent emotions, nor would we want to

So, here’s the deal...emotions happen whether we want them to or not. Some emotions feel really great and happy. And, some emotions feel really, really awful and difficult. There’s no getting around any of it. I don’t know about you, but I don’t always know how to handle these difficult emotions.

I have lived enough life to know that if I’m not careful, they tend to take control of everything in my life...and not in a good way. So, I’m here today to support anyone who is struggling with big, difficult emotions. You are not alone...and acknowledging them is the first step in the right direction. Congratulations!

What can we do?

There are many things each of us can do to have healthy emotional responses and an overall positive mental health.

  1. Learn about emotions. Research and read (you're doing that right now, yay!).
  2. Go to therapy. I love therapy so much! This is where I have learned the most about myself. If you're interested in therapy but nervous to start, check out this article.
  3. End the stigma. Have positive conversations with others about emotions and mental health.
  4. Be vulnerable. Trust me when I say that you are not alone in this. Opening up to others about your struggles and triumphs with emotional health can help build their confidence to do the same.

I hope that even when the articles we post about mental health don’t get a lot of likes or comments it doesn’t mean they’re not being read. I can understand a hesitancy to like or comment on such articles as there is a certain stigma to some about anything ‘mental health.’ Thank you for reading this all the way down to the end!

I’m proud of you! I'm proud of US.

Meghan & Gloria Steinem in Hopeful Conversation & Efforts to Ratify Equal Rights Amendment

Like so many all over the world, and of course especially in the United States, the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v Wade has been at the forefront of Meghan's mind. Two days after the seismic news, Jessica Yellin, founder of media company News Not Noise, dialed in with Meghan and Gloria Steinem for a conversation on their work together and hopes for the future. The piece was published in Vogue last night.

There are several important elements to the story, beginning with the important work stemming from Gloria and Meghan's friendship. Over the summer of 2020, the pair's blossoming closeness was revealed when they sat down in Montecito to discuss representation, the importance of young people in particular using their vote, and how women "are linked, not ranked". Their full conversation was shared by MAKERS Women, a platform supporting women by amplifying their voices and sharing their stories. "If you don’t vote you don’t exist. It’s the only place where we are all equal," Gloria told the Duchess. "You know, I fear we get a case of the 'shoulds' - the 'what should I do?' as opposed to 'I'm going to do everything I can'. We should ask ourselves: ‘Who do I talk to every day? Are they registered or not?’ Whatever it is that is next to us we can do. If we each do that, then I think we’ll be OK."

Two years later, Jessica Yellin told Vogue:

“It would explicitly extend to women the rights granted in the Constitution to men. The ERA would change the playing field for women’s reproductive rights, women’s workplace rights, and so much more. For decades Steinem has been advocating for its enactment, and now Meghan is joining in.”

Town & Country reports:

'Suffragettes Alice Paul and Crystal Eastman first drafted the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) in 1923, and it was approved by the Senate in 1972. Nearly a century later, American feminist Gloria Steinem and Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, are working on a plan to finally get the ERA ratified.

"Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex," the amendment reads.

President Biden is in favor of the ERA becoming part of the Constitution as soon as possible. In a statement in January 2022, he said, "I have been a strong supporter of the ERA ever since I first ran for the Senate as a 29-year-old. We must recognize the clear will of the American people and definitively enshrine the principle of gender equality in the Constitution."'

The opening portion of the conversation from Vogue:

'Jessica Yellin: I hear from so many people—they’re feeling panic, confusion. They’re looking for guidance on what to do now. Let’s talk about the immediate impact of this ruling. Women in 13 states are seeing their reproductive rights vanish. And in another 13 they’ll likely be severely restricted. Tens of millions of women will have to make brutal choices, and we know that some will die. For people who were born after 1973 and have no idea what that was like, would you tell us a little about the reality of being a pregnant woman before Roe?

Gloria Steinem: There were underground networks, most famously Jane. That is where you called up a particular number and asked for Jane and that meant you needed an abortion. And there were women who bravely guided you. In my situation, I was in London, not this country, when I needed an abortion and was lucky to find a physician in the equivalent of the Yellow Pages, who said that if I promised him two things—one, that I would never tell anyone his name and two, that I would do what I wish to do with my life—he would send me to a woman doctor who would do the abortion. I dedicated a book to him. He’s no longer with us. So I thought it was okay, finally, after all these years, to do that.

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex: That gave me chills, Gloria. Also that you were in the hands of someone who understood that it was your choice to create the life that you wanted for yourself. That’s so powerful.'

On the impact overturning Roe v Wade is having, the Duchess said: "This is having a very real impact on women’s bodies and lives starting now. Women are already sharing stories of how their physical safety is being put in danger. Women with resources will travel to get an abortion, those without might attempt to give themselves one at tremendous risk. Some will have to source abortion pills from unregulated pharmacies. Others who are pregnant and find themselves in a medical emergency will be at the mercy of doctors and lawyers to determine if a procedure that is needed to save her life can even be done at all. What does this tell women? It tells us that our physical safety doesn’t matter, and as a result that we don’t matter. But we do. Women matter. And this is one of the reasons that I called Gloria immediately. Because in all of it, she reminds me that when you have anger, you have to channel that energy into something that makes a difference. That’s what activism is. It’s about how we show up."

The Duchess continued to note the impact this will have on women of colour: "These issues are systemic, interconnected, and preventable. Women of color and especially Black women are most impacted by these decisions because most of us don’t have the same access to health care, economic opportunity, mental health resources…the list goes on. It’s difficult to overstate what this decision is going to do to these communities."

People reports:

"Men need to be vocal in this moment and beyond because these are decisions that affect relationships, families, and communities at large," said Meghan. "They may target women, but the consequences impact all of us. My husband and I talked about that a lot over the past few days. He's a feminist too."

Discussing Harry's thoughts on the decision, Meghan said, "His reaction last week was guttural, like mine."

On Judge Clarence Thomas' concurring opinion which said the court should "correct" the error of same-sex relationships and contraception, Meghan described it as "a blueprint for reversing rights", and said it very much felt like "the tip of the iceberg", which is why fear has to be channeled into action. The Duchess stressed the importance of voting.

The Duchess discussed the work she and Gloria have been doing: "We’re fighting to get a constitutional amendment put through the Equal Rights Amendment that makes it clear that women can be treated equally, and how it is completely nonsensical that that’s even something we’re still fighting for." On her passion to continue these efforts: "Being home, seeing what’s happening in our country and feeling energized and motivated, if this is the type of legislation that we need pushed through, then this is a moment that I am absolutely going to show up for. Not just because it’s what we need as women, but it’s what we need as people." Meghan added she and Gloria should take a trip to DC soon.

Meghan on her own pregnancies and enduring a miscarriage:

'I think about how fortunate I felt to be able to have both of my children. I know what it feels like to have a connection to what is growing inside of your body. What happens with our bodies is so deeply personal, which can also lead to silence and stigma, even though so many of us deal with personal health crises. I know what miscarrying feels like, which I’ve talked about publicly. The more that we normalize conversation about the things that affect our lives and bodies, the more people are going to understand how necessary it is to have protections in place.

This is about women’s physical safety. It’s also about economic justice, individual autonomy, and who we are as a society. Nobody should be forced to make a decision they do not want to make, or is unsafe, or puts their own life in jeopardy. Frankly, whether it’s a woman being put in an unthinkable situation, a woman not ready to start a family, or even a couple who deserve to plan their family in a way that makes the most sense for them, it’s about having a choice. It’s interesting that here you’re talking to two women: one who chose to give birth happily, and one who chose not to give birth happily. And we’re both prospering because we were able to make our own choices. Incredible.'

Meghan said Harry is a feminist too, to which Gloria added: "Yes I can testify to that since I met him before I met you. He was at a big meeting I attended and he was advocating for people’s rights".Gloria spoke about the impact of Harry and Meghan speaking up "It’s very, very, very important. Because what they both have is trust. We trust them and nothing but nothing replaces trust. It is the most important quality or attribute. We can see things on television and not believe them or not trust them. But when people like these two tell us, then we trust it." Meghan thanked her, saying, "That's really kind." Meghan added she's grateful to be holding the baton next to Gloria, who replied, "We're chosen family."

"I feel just as thankful to Meghan for being the present, the future - for taking risks of criticism by standing up for what she believes in and what the majority needs." - Gloria Steinem.

'I always look at things with the undercurrent of hope. If you are someone who truly believes that there can be something better, if you’re someone who sees injustice, you have a choice: You can sit there and be complacent and watch it, or you can say, “What can I do to get us to the other side of this?' - Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.

Elsewhere, the Duchess sent a letter of thanks and words of encouragement to mothers campaigning for gun reform at non-profit Moms Demand Action. The package included an array of snacks, coffees, donuts, bagels and pastries.

Vanity Fair reports:

'Along with the refreshments, the Duchess also added a special note written on her letterhead which features her monogram with the Coronet of the Child of the Heir Apparent. “Good Afternoon Ladies. To each of you and your fearless leader Shannon, a huge thank you for the work you are doing to keep our kids, families and and communities safe,” the letter began. “Please know that while you may feel exhausted by your endless hours of dedication to this cause, I hope you feel energized in knowing that the work you're doing is vital and so deeply appreciated. As a mom, and a friend, thank you so much! Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex.”'

The Duchess also made a call expressing her sincerest condolences to the family of Uvalde victim Irma Garcia.

Irma's husband Joe "passed away due to grief" days after the shooting, Irma's nephew confirmed. Irma and Joe shared four children who have now lost both their parents. They were high-school sweethearts married for over twenty years. The family has been through an unimaginable ordeal. A Go Fund Me has raised almost $3 million dollars in support of the family.

Meghan paid her respects in person in Uvalde "as a mother" late last month.

And finally, polo season in Santa Barbara was certainly fun, wasn't it? The wife of Harry's close friend Nacho Figueras, Delfina, shared this heartfelt message on Instagram: "M - looking forward to many more of these times with you and H. Getting to spend time together over these 2 months was so special. I wish everyone new you the way you are. My sister ❤, my now fellow “pwife” (polo wife) -genius of you to come up with this 😂 - Can’t wait to see you again soon, to share thrill, hikes, and just more chill time. You also have my respect. Keep walking, steady and strong. Listen to your heart, that will guide you well, bc you have a big one and it’s a beautiful one. I love you my darling."

Introducing Gobbit - Snap with fangs ! (review)

We may be into the summer but the weather still seems to think that it's October rather than late June, so you might well be looking for ways to while away a wet weekend. We recently received a new card game called Gobbit to review, which is perfect for some family fun, at home or on holiday, as it's small enough to be stashed away in a suitcase.

Gobbit is described as "a fast and frantic card game that demands strong powers of observation, steadfast concentration and otherworldly reflexes". We thought it was like a souped-up (and more exciting) version of Snap, which meant that it was easy for young players to get the hang of, despite having a 7+ recommended age. The cards feature four animals in three colours, all of whom eat one another based on their colour and the food chain: the chameleon eats the mosquito, the snake eats the chameleon, and the gorilla eats anything. Players take it in turns to reveal the top card in their pile but must have their wits about them – slap your animal to defend it from a predator’s attack, or slap your opponent’s animal to ‘eat’ it and claim their pile!

As the Madhouse grandparents and Auntie Em were over for a visit, they got roped in for a game or ten and we soon discovered that the odds were fairly evenly stacked, regardless of age.

I loved seeing the look of total concentration on the kids' faces, not to mention their delight when they managed to steal one of their opponents' cards !

The great thing about the game is that there is no waiting for your turn or even for a new round to begin once you're out. Once a player has lost all their cards, they stay in the game in their new guise as a ghost. Frantically slapping any matching pairs they spot between the remaining players, ghosts have the power to really disrupt the food chain and send even more animals to the graveyard! Each round only lasts about ten minutes on average, and there's no time lost setting up the game before you can play, so it's a great option when you're short on time but want to spend some quality time with the family.

Each game also comes with a wristband which permits entry into all Gobbit tournaments taking place in stores throughout the UK.

It's a very simple concept - easy to learn, quick to play but hard to master - so it is incredibly addictive. The Madhouse kids keep beating me, much to their delight, so I need to get some practice in !

Kellyanne Conway: “Kamala reminds me of Hillary because she doesn’t have enough people around her to tell her that’s not a good idea, don’t do that”

Former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway called out Vice President Kamala Harris for her role in the debacle that has been year one of the Joe Biden presidency. Conway said Harris has actually accomplished one goal of the Biden administration, uniting the country, just not in the way she thought she would.

Instead, Conway says Kamala’s incompetence has unified the country against the VP and President Joe Biden. At least according to most recent polls. Harris and Biden have shockingly low numbers and worse, they have no idea how to get them back up.

Conway said on Fox News: “If you look at her poll numbers, she has unified America. They promised unity in America, and indeed they’ve unified America against both Biden but especially Harris.

“I was at Pearl Harbor just last week with three of my children.

“And anybody who’s been there knows it is a disgrace to our military, to our veterans, to our country, to our democracy to ever equate the deaths of thousands of innocent Americans on 9/11, in Pearl Harbor,” Conway said of Kamala’s Jan 6 speech.

“These were prepared remarks that one would believe she had reviewed ahead of time,” she added.

Conway continued saying “we’re all going to remember Aug. 26, 2021” to mark the Biden administration’s “chaotic withdrawal,” from Afghanistan.

It is still inconceivable Biden’s team was caught so flatfooted and unaware of what was happening in that country. It is incomprehensible really.

Conway continued:

“Kamala reminds me of Hillary in this way: She doesn’t have enough people around her who she trusts to tell her, ‘That’s not a good idea. Don’t do that. Walk that back. Correct it. Be prepared.

“Her own staff has told the media that ‘she doesn’t want to prepare,'” Kellyanne said before adding:

“‘She’s unprepared. We give her these briefing books.

“She doesn’t prepare, and then when she is called out as being unprepared, she blames us.'”

Do you want to say f2c is light package, and g95 is heavy package?

I have thought when USE_LANGUAGES=fortran, g95 should be used,
and when USE_LANGUAGES=fortran77, f2c should be used.

But according to joerg@, fortran77 and fortran cannot coexist as
pkgsrc compiler, because ABI incompatibility. My understanding is right?

If fortran77 and fortran cannot coexist as pkgsrc compiler,
when f2c is default fortran compiler, USE_LANGUAGES=fortran should not
invoke g95.

By the way,
I have thought fc2 is only supports fortran77,
but in pkgsrc/mk/compiler/,
LANGUAGES.f2c=fortran fortran77 is defined.
Is this correct?

Regular price $365.00 Save $-365.00
2 in stock

Ballenger AFR500v2 with NTK Sensor
The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 Air Fuel Ratio Monitor has proven very successful. In a world where cost-cutting reigns supreme, we’ve kept the calibration quality air fuel ratio meter made by ECM going strong. Previously sold as the NGK Powerdex AFX, it was replaced in the NGK/NTK product line due to high cost and low margins despite its popularity. Sometimes quality comes at a price, and we plan to keep offering this high quality product to consumers, dedicated tuners, and industry professionals.

The AFR500 makes true wideband technology with top of the line measurement equipment available to enthusiasts and tuners for the first time. Air fuel ratio offers critical feedback for tuners to alter parameters to achieve maximum power and efficiency from their engine.

The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 Air Fuel Ratio Monitor offers a range of true wideband sensors from low cost options to lab grade sensors. No competing system offers this flexibility in this price range. Comparative systems typically sell for thousands of dollars for dedicated calibration equipment. The AFR500 is capable of reading air fuel ratio values from 9.0:1 to 16.0:1 (0.62-1.1λ) for standard range or 6.0:1 to 20.0:1 (0.411-1.373λ) for wide range with a resolution of 0.1 to provide excellent resolution in the tuning range of most performance vehicles. The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 utilizes sensitive Nernst style, pump & reference cell based sensors that can detect a wide range of oxygen concentrations in order to properly interpret air fuel ratio in a variety of combustion environments.

The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 offers a linear analog output to be used as an input to engine control systems, gauges, or data acquisition systems. The output varies from 9:1 at 0v to 16:1 at 5v for the standard range or 6:1 at 0v to 20:1 at 5v for the wide range.

Summary of Changes for the v2:

  • Lambda Display Option
  • Extreme Range option for FI methanol & laboratory applications
    • 0.411-1.373 Lambda
    • 6-20 Gas AFR
    • 2.66-8.88 Methanol AFR
  • Increased display speed
  • Methanol Display Option
  • Faster analog output
  • All harnesses, control units, accessories, etc (except the LSU 4.9) are backwards and forwards compatible
  • Options are selectable at any time via internal jumpers
  • NTK Calibration grade sensor included for low AFR methanol applications. NTK Production Grade is the least expensive sensor we recommend for methanol applications.

The base AFR500v2 will include the following:

  • Large, bright digital display controller (~3.4in x 2.7in x 1.3in)
  • 13 ft or 7ft wiring harness with sealed connections
  • Bosch LSU 4.9 wideband oxygen sensor (NTK Sensor options available, as well as the Bosch 4.2)
  • Weld in steel exhaust boss & plug

Note to the Rest of the World:

   Judge Anna von Reitz

No, we did not leave you behind or adrift or struggling all by yourselves.

The Megalomaniacs who set this System up abused our Copyright Office, our Patent Office, and our Trademark Office to accomplish all this fraud against living people.

That means that with the Delegated Powers returned to us fair and square, we are now able to sort through and return the purloined intellectual property to the actual owners.

Please be aware that this was all done by British Territorial United States operatives and Bar Association Members —- not by our actual American Government and certainly not by the American States or People.

We have no interest in keeping anything that isn’t ours and will rest easier when all the other countries are properly back on the map and all the other people are in full possession and enjoyment of their Good Names and assets, too.

Each country is responsible for making its own correction in terms of correcting its own public records, restoring its own lawful government, and resolving its own “national debt” once it has access to its “national credit”. And, obviously, each country will need to address their own banks and guilty bankers and politicians.

Most of the original Plotters are long dead, so there is no direct satisfaction possible, but we can fully expose who they were and what they did and we can guard our countries from ever being afflicted by such parasites again.

We will assist to the extent we can and stand with and stand by all the other people who have been impoverished and defrauded by these monsters in suits.

Ces 2022 innovation award winner electric bobcat

This Unlikely Hero Just Won the CES Innovation Award

The first machine of its kind to become fully electric, Doosan Bobcat has unveiled the T7X to industry acclaim at CES2022 – receiving the Innovation Award at the show. While electric cars might steal the spotlight with speed and acceleration that matches that of a Formula 1 car, EV technology is trickling down into the industries we need it most.

Being entirely battery-powered electric, the T7X brings with it a host of technologies that allow the track loader to outperform its diesel counterparts in almost every way possible. At the surface level, the electric Bobcat will be quieter, emission-free, and limit vibration and operating costs to levels unmatched by even the best track loaders in the industry.

“This machine is a technological feat for Bobcat and for the entire industry… We challenged the status quo to deliver a connected, all-electric machine designed for power and performance that previously was not possible. We are excited to share this advancement with the world and proud of the hard work that has gone into making this a reality,” said Joel Honeyman, vice president of global innovation at Doosan Bobcat.

Built with almost half the components of the traditional diesel counterpart, the T7X will drive down the cost of maintenance and ownership costs to levels we haven’t seen before. One example of such saving is in the coolant, where the T7X takes just one quart of eco-friendly coolant compared to nearly 60 gallons of fluids required in its diesel-and hydraulic-powered counterpart. Just like an electric car, fewer parts, components and fluid will save you money throughout the vehicle’s lifecycle.

Our favourite part (and we’re sure anyone who lives residential would agree) is the fact the track loader operates silently both inside and outside work hours. Operators also reap the benefits, fewer moving parts means far less vibration through the seat and steering wheel saving you from exacerbated exhaustion on the site.

So how does it work? Operators won’t have to wait for the loader to ‘warm-up’ and with intelligent work modes users can expect up to four hours of continuous operation time and a full day of operation during intermittent use (similar to the brands t10e). The management system knows when loads are increasing, and automatically backs off power when not needed to preserve the total energy use and extend the machine’s runtime. A number of world-first electric attachments will be released over the loaders lifespan for specific tasks like auger, angle broom, and grapple grab to hold materials.

Bobcat T7X Power and Performance
Power 62 kW (100 hp equivalent) lithium-ion battery.
Tipping Load 8571 lb. (3887 kg)

International trade in white shark Carcharodon carcharias products from New Zealand

White sharks Carcharodon carcharias are widely distributed within New Zealand’s exclusive economic zone (EEZ), occurring in coastal and oceanic waters from at least 33oS to 52.5oS, and are taken in a number of non-commercial and commercial fisheries. Recreational and customary fishers mainly take white sharks as bycatch in gillnets, and occasionally on longlines (Duffy unpubl. data). Sport fisheries for white sharks in New Zealand are largely undeveloped and fishers often tag and release those they do catch (Mossman 1993; Wilson 2002). A protective beach meshing programme run by Dunedin City Council (DCC) operates seasonally off Brighton, St. Clair and St. Kilda beaches. Although targeted, no white sharks have been taken since 1975. All sharks taken are disposed of at sea unless requested for research (L. Bell, DCC, pers. comm.). White sharks are not considered capable of sustaining a target fishery in New Zealand and commercial fisheries regulations prohibit directed fisheries (Francis 1998). They are taken as bycatch, however, in bottom-set longline, dropline and gill net fisheries, and occasionally in trawl and tuna longline fisheries (Ministry of Fisheries Catch Effort Database, Duffy unpubl. data). Landings and sale of bycatch is permitted.

Breast Revision Surgery

Breast revision surgery in Chicago

Just as there are many reasons women choose breast augmentation, there are myriad reasons patients seek out a skilled surgeon to revise or reverse the process. When patients in Chicago and surrounding communities decide that implants did not meet their expectations, or when an initial surgery led to serious complications, many choose Dr. Marco Ellis to perform breast revision.

Second Thoughts

After breast augmentation, some patients are disappointed with the look and feel of the final result. They may choose to “swap” implants for a different size, or choose a different type of saline or silicone gel implant.

Other women choose to remove but not replace implants. When implants are removed, the pocket that held the implant must be refilled with natural tissue to restore a pleasing shape. This involves a procedure that is similar to breast lift. The skill of your surgeon is especially important in cases in which large implants are removed: The skin may have a stretched look, and the breasts may appear to sag or have a deflated appearance. Efficient tightening of the skin and precise placement of tissue to refill the area are critical. If you select smaller implants, the area surrounding the new implant will need to be tightened as well, and skin may need to be lifted.

Health Complications

Sometimes the decision to remove implants is not based on aesthetic preference, but performed for medically-necessary reasons. A patient may have a health condition, such as an autoimmune disease, that may be aggravated by the presence of implants. Other times implants have lost integrity, drifted or even damaged surrounding tissue. Capsular contracture, for example, develops when scar tissue forms around an implant. With this condition, patients feel pain and notice a hardening of breast tissue. This type of scarring can also cause an implant to rupture.

Symmastia is a condition in which migration of the implants or improper positioning makes it look like the breasts are joined in the middle of the chest. Drifting or incorrect surgical placement can also make breasts look asymmetrical. In other cases, the outline of implants becomes visible on the surface, and may even give the skin a “rippling” appearance. The most serious cases involve rupture of the implant.

Whatever the reason for breast revision, Dr. Ellis is skilled in removing or changing implants with safe surgical options that will improve your quality of life. He is also experienced in performing concurrent procedures during implant removal, such as lifting the breasts on the chest and even adjusting the angle of the nipple and compressing the size of the areola.

To learn more about breast revision options, schedule your personal consultation with experienced Chicago plastic surgeon Dr. Marco Ellis today.
