Say hello to my new favorite thing this summer—a Fruity Greek Salad with Sweet Mango Salad Dressing! A salad recipe that pairs beautifully with everything. Seriously everything! A salad recipe that's super refreshing, sweet, tangy, crunchy, juicy, everything! Plus it gets drizzled with a sweet and tangy mango Greek salad dressing that just pops the flavor out of all the other fruits!
You all know I have a thing for salads. A real thing. I brag so much about this fact, to a point where it almost feels misleading lol Because like everyone else (I hope!) I also have a thing for luscious stuff, however I don't really brag about it lol I'll just share it and leave the bragging to you! But seriously, with almost all my happy salad days, I think this Greek salad here is taking the crown of my happiest salad day ever!
First of all, I think because my roots are from the Mediterranean, Greek salad will always hit home for me and feta cheese brings me so much comfort! 🙂 But that's not really all that's to it. It's the fruit. Totally the fruit. And specially summer fruits. Actually FRESH fruits and lettuce which I've been enjoying stored in an amazing Rubbermaid® FreshWorks™ produce container! This Greek salad feels like summer on a plate. Something that I certainly wish it could last forever!! 🙂
Ok can I quickly mention how I LOVE these Rubbermaid® FreshWorks™ produce containers—which I happen to find at my local Kroger (and on sale too!) First off, my Kroger became my go to place for fresh and organic produce—love it ever since I discovered it in MI 🙂 And my beloved Rubbermaid® has captured my heart ever since I tried their Brilliance line and made this divine Best Lasagna Soup recipe (which if you haven't yet tried, let me tell you, you're missing OUT). So when I heard about the new FreshWorks™containers, my curiosity lead me straight to the food storage aisle!
I probably should've showed you a before and after, but frankly the before and after photos look JUST the same! For today's salad recipe, I bought the large size container which is ideal for storing lettuce. Overall I was blown away by how fresh my lettuce looked a week after I stored it in the Rubbermaid® FreshWorks™ container. There's a patented FreshVent™ Technology which keeps produce fresher longer. This technology also allows excess CO2 to escape and allows more O2 to go in which is optimal to maintain fresh produce. At the bottom of each container, there's also a Crisp Tray™ to put your produce on, and it elevates produce away from moisture and promotes proper airflow to help prevent spoilage. You can read more about it here!
So with such fresh lettuce and produce, you can imagine how many salad bowls you'll be making out of them! So back to this sweet Greek salad recipe, while it's just PERFECT the way I made it, I can assure you it'll be just as perfect when you add in your special touch 🙂 Swap some fruits around, remove the feta and make it vegan, add a touch of tomatoes or cucumbers if you like..anything that feels like a happy salad day for you!
The inspiration for all these fruits—mango, pineapple, blueberries, strawberries, peaces, apples and pomegranate arils in a salad came from a very fancy cafe we went to last week. One of my friends was leaving so four of us decided to go have breakfast at a nice cafe. We all had eggs, bagels, plenty of coffee..and one of my friends ordered a fruit salad with bread. At first we all joked about her "healthy option" and doubted this fruit salad would ever feel like a filing breakfast!
Eventually, as you can imagine we all had a taste or two of that huge fruity salad bowl she ordered. It wasn't a Greek Salad or Greek inspired, it was lettuce, fruits and a sweet mayo based orange-ish dressing. The taste was SO refreshing! It felt SO sweet and above all it was really filling! We ended up ordering another bowl of salad, and taking some of our bagels to go lol So I cam home feeling like I NEED to make this! And even more, I need to add a Greek twist and make a fruity Greek Salad!
I can't urge you ENOUGH to make this salad and I can guarantee you'll make it more often than you think!! It's awesome on its' own, and likewise it's awesome paired with whatever you're grilling this season! Also just as awesome if you add in some grains, seeds and beans! Actually black beans would be my pick 🙂 And when it comes to the choice of fruits, make use of all the gorgeous summer produce like I did! I used strawberries, mangoes, pineapples, apples, nectarines, peaches, pomegranate arils, blueberries and I added in a bit of kale and mint with my lettuce and some scallions. PERFECTION 🙂
Can I quickly mention the dressing before I let you go? I made it in my favorite mini food processor— mangos, honey, apple vinegar, pinch of salt, some fresh oregano and olive oil. Simple, yet luscious! This mango sauce is perfect drizzled on grilled chicken, and even perfect if you feel like adding in some chilli flakes and spice to it if you're a spice person. Either way make PLENTY of it, you'll need it 🙂
Finally, I have an amazing offer for you—while supplies last, you can Get $2 Off FreshWorksTM Now !! Use the different sizes for different types of produce and enjoy the freshness 🙂 And the best way to use that freshness is to make this fruity Greek Salad, I assure you it will be one of your favorites too!! 🙂 Enjoy! 🙂

Hi, Mom and Dad. So, this past week has been BEYOND difficult, and not because of my companion. Surprisingly, things are getting better between us (more or less, but beggars can't be choosers). However, things aren't looking to well for where I'm serving, which is Ward Oramas Gonzalez. This past Sunday had to have been the biggest (I hate to say it in this manner, but) joke I believe I have ever seen on my mission. It was extremely irreverent until the very end, and don't even get me started on the Ward Council meeting that we had afterwards. It was an hour and a half of us going back and forth with the Bishop, and the Relief Society President (which just so happens to be the Bishop's sister) about a topic as ridiculous as our lunches that the ward is providing us with. Then, the bishop assured us that tracting (or knocking doors) "gives us memorable experiences", and also "builds character." I hate to sound as short-fused as I do, but I only have 2 months left before I'm on a plane back to the United States. I've nearly had my personal fill of spiritual experiences (of which I'm grateful for, might I add). However, this is definitely not the case. What I think they need to come to know is that we're not eating at member's houses simply because we're hungry, and we also want to bless their families. Actually, the main reason we come to these hospitable members' houses is not only to bless their families, but to receive any referrals that they ought to have for us. Even if it simply be them pointing across the street and asking us to try their "neighbors", then that's perfectly fine with us. I however learned that we easily have 5 or so "back-ups" if our lunch does just so happen to fall through, which again gives me the right to draw the conclusion that the necessity for us eating is not the case. Not only that, but there is a very prominent lack of fellowshipping in this ward, especially if the most I've seen them have here for their attendance was their Ward Conference, with 125 attendance. I pray that they get their acts together, otherwise, President's going to take a look at our numbers and take us both out from the very obvious lack of progress in our sector. It's heartbreaking to see or hear about a sector getting closed for those kinds of reasons as opposed to the clear other side of the spectrum (they're too self-sufficient concerning the Home Teachers, Visiting Teachers, Self-Sufficiency Classes, and other methods of Fellowshipping that all wards around the world ought to have in their arsenals and at their disposals. No matter, I guess. The best my companion and I could to is just keep doing our best, and face the music. Whatever happens, we both know that it's not our fault, but I would hate to have that slight feeling that we could've been able to at least speak up and say something. But again, I'm not one to step outside of my line of authority that we have as missionaries. I love you guys, I miss you guys, and I have to apologize for the lack of pictures, because I lost my battery charger after getting transferred from Balzar. I'll try my best to take as many pictures as I can (and to send them for those reading the blog), but until next week, keep praying often, and remember how much Jesus loves you! Take care!!!
Elder Conner Duane "Poderoso" Parke
I love you guys!!!

The BMA has renewed its criticism of the government for a lack of detail on how it intends to deliver the expansion of seven-day services.
It follows the re-engagement of the union and NHS Employers in eleventh hour talks on the consutlant contract a head of 11 September deadline.
Removing the 'opt out' on the current consultant contract for providing non-emergency out of hours care remains the government's contract priority.
Dr Mark Porter, chair of BMA council, accused the government of high on rhetoric but low on detail about seven-day services over an extended period.
Porter said: "The prime minister said in May he wanted a 'truly seven-day NHS', but without a word then or since on how this service – the first such in the world – would be staffed, funded or where the necessary support services would be found. Last month, the health secretary Jeremy Hunt repeated the mantra, in the same breath accusing the BMA of being a 'roadblock' to reform.
"A roadblock to what exactly? Never has a policy been launched with such a breathtaking lack of detail. When I pointed out in a radio interview last month that it wasn't possible simply to stretch existing staff over seven days, the secretary of state even said I was 'absolutely right'. In the same interview, he acknowledged that seven-day diagnostic tests would be needed, but has given no clue where the extra staff and funding will come from."
The BMA also criticised the government's "inaccurate, demoralising and destructive attacks on doctors".
"As thousands of us work in NHS hospitals at weekends, we've had to stomach the irony of weekend newspapers full of stories about doctors supposedly shirking our responsibilities. This, of course, is intended to distract the public from the lack of detail or any plan to deliver the expanded service. But – for doctors and the patients for whom we care – it's time for answers, not insults," he said.
This week the union is launching a campaign – among doctors and the public – to urge the government to reveal its detailed plans for a seven-day service, including the implications for funding, staff, the impact on services and on patients.
Independent researchers have concluded that the cost of implementing seven-day services far exceeds the maximum threshold that NICE would recommend the NHS be prepared to spend on eradicating any weekend effect, the BMA says.
In its recent review of the consultant contract, the pay review body said that without evidence of efficiency or productivity gains from introducing seven-day services, 'it is not clear to us that this change could be implemented without further resource'.
To raise pressure on the government, Porter asked doctors to add their name to a list and tweet their support using #showusthe7dayplan.
Porter said: "We have been quite clear – we support the same high standards for patients needing acute, emergency and urgent care seven days a week. The context is also clear. The NHS has never been resourced at weekends to the extent that it is during the week, and the service overall is facing dire financial pressures. So where's the plan to square this circle?"

A woman who has overcome throat, breast, lung and brain cancer is taking on a new challenge as she prepares to take part in a 10k run to raise money for Yorkshire Cancer Research.
Siobhan Smith says running has become an essential part of her recovery from a fourth bout of cancer, as she is determined to regain her health, fitness and independence.
Siobhan, aged 38, from Penistone, said: "Learning to run has been life-changing for me. Exercise has helped me cope mentally, and I've met some lovely people."
She was first diagnosed with throat cancer in her early 20s.
"I was shocked and devastated," she said. "I had no idea it might be cancer. I had to take a pill every day that provided a steady, continuous dose of chemotherapy into my body. I suffered side-effects from the chemo, and had to take anti-inflammatories and steroids. The drugs were constantly changed and I was in and out of hospital regularly."
Eventually hospital visits became less frequent but eight years later, she discovered she had cancer for a second time and had three surgeries to remove a lump in her breast.
Following her diagnosis, doctors decided Siobhan should have regular MRI scans to monitor her throat, breasts and heart and during one cancerous cells were discovered in her lung.
Within two weeks, she'd had keyhole surgery to remove a quarter of her lung.
"I had to learn to breathe again. I couldn't even make a cup of tea or get in the bath on my own," she said.
Her brain tumour was detected in October last year.
She said: "When I was told I had cancer for a fourth time, I felt angry, upset and fed up.
"But I knew that after everything else I'd been through, I was strong enough to handle this too."
Doctors removed the tumour and she was not put under general anaesthetic for the surgery – meaning she was awake for the whole procedure.
But Siobhan wanted to turn her experience into a positive one and after linking up with personal trainer Katie Ford, she decided to aim for the Leeds Abbey Dash on November 5, hoping to raise money for Yorkshire Cancer Research.
She has distributed collection boxes throughout the shopping centre at Foxhill, Stocksbridge, where she works, and Sandersons Boutique has taken on the charity as its official partner.
Siobhan was also inspired by the loss of her best friend Catherine Hallett, 35, to leukaemia two years ago.
She said: "She was diagnosed and died within a year, leaving behind two young children. I was devastated."

"Until their last breath." It's a real life love story...
And the ending depends on you. Please give $35 so we can help people like Noelene and John live joyfully, until the very end.
Dear friend,
A penniless musician named John meets a student nurse called Noelene… they are just nineteen years old.
You can imagine how this story goes. "We were attracted to each other the first time we met," remembers John. "Noelene had a big heart, a great sense of fun. And 'joie de vivre'."
Joie de vivre, the joy of living, is what this letter is about… Which might sound strange because if you've heard of us, you'll know that here at Mercy Hospice Auckland, we often walk with people through their final months, weeks and days of life.
Yet joyful living is at the heart of our work. And I'm writing today to ask you to help people like Noelene live joyfully, right until the end of their story.
"That's how Noelene lived," John says, "whether she was knitting a jumper or fixing the mower. Noelene gave things a go and was always on the go."
John married his sweetheart two years after he first laid eyes on her. And they had four beautiful children – Sarah, Matthew, Mandy and Emily. Noelene also finished her nursing degree, specialising in palliative care. "She loved nursing," John says, "palliative care was her 'calling'.
"She was passionate about helping people live life to the fullest – until their last breath."
That's our passion too. And it's our privilege to offer families the support to do this, over the difficult – and often heartbreaking - journey with illness.
Yet to give this care, we rely on donations from our generous local community. This is why I'm hoping you can give $35 today, to make our highly specialised care available for families like Noelene's.
After forty-three years of marriage to John, Noelene was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. She came to us in the final months of her battle.
"Noelene was extremely lucky to have the support of Mercy Hospice. Just as she had done for many others, they enabled her to die how she wanted," says John, "She loved to think that everyone could be offered the same kind of support."
Here at Mercy Hospice, we know that when you reach the end of the journey with someone you deeply care for – like John loves Noelene - joyful memories are the only ones worth remembering.
That's why we're committed to helping families celebrate them. Please help us make this possible for someone like Noelene, and her beloved John.
If you can give $35, you'll help us provide:
- Specialist palliative care and hospice services for people facing serious illness.
- Our nurses to have the expertise and training to care for people with the utmost professional skill and compassion.
- Support to families, friends and carers to help them walk alongside their loved ones.
With your support, we'll offer these services to families for free, so that everyone can face illness with courage and strength.
In return for your support, I give you my word that every gift you give – small or large – will help Mercy Hospice Auckland continue to provide a very special service.
You see we've been doing this work for 35 years. And over this time, we've learned that every person comes to us with a rich history of their own. So we respond to everyone's physical, emotional and spiritual needs individually. We honour everyone's story.
That might be the most wonderful legacy of Noelene and John.
If their love story moves you to support Mercy Hospice, then someone else will know joie de vivre, just like they did – as Noelene herself said: "until your last breath!"
I thank you in advance for making our vital work possible.
Yours sincerely
Lynda Smith
Chief Executive Officer
Mercy Hospice Auckland
P.S. When you give $35 to support Mercy Hospice Auckland, you'll give a family like Noelene and John's the support to face illness – and make every moment special, until the very end.

Tuesday, May 23, 2017 - Wednesday, June 7, 2017
Class Placement: Although next year probably seems a long way off, here at Chenery we are already looking forward to 2017-2018. Class placement is one of the most important things to you and your children during this time of transition, so we want to be certain that we are as thoughtful and thorough as possible. Starting on Monday, May 1 and continuing through Wednesday, May 31 we will make available "Parent Placement Consideration Forms" in our main office. They are not required to be completed by all parents, but if you have any special circumstances you would like us to know about before assigning your child to a teacher and a team please submit one for your child. For the sake of convenience, all forms can be picked up and returned to the main office. If you have any additional questions regarding placement, please contact me at school at 617-993-5800.
Book Fair Follow-up from Karen Duff: While the experience is fresh in my mind, I want to write to thank everyone for the phenomenal success, on every level, of our second annual "Spring Into Summer Reading Author Festival."
As I stood in the cafeteria a few minutes before 3:00pm, the official opening, I was anxious that maybe I had been foolish to invite 13 very well respected authors to our community and to think it could be a huge success. A classic case of stage fright basically! And yet again, Chenery, and the broader Belmont community, showed up to support the Library and to show the authors what a passionate reading community this is. Every author came to me to say that they had never experienced anything quite like it and I proudly stated "Welcome to Belmont" and "I know, right!?"
There are many people to thank for this success. The Foundation for Belmont Education, the PTO, and Belmont Against Racism all have funded authors that came into our school to talk about their writing and the writing/artistic process with your children. Every year that I have been at Chenery (10 now!) these folks have provided the Chenery Library program with significant funds for these, and other, wonderful enrichment opportunities. There is something very special about children hearing from, and being in the same room as, people actively engaged in the creative process and writing books that are so relevant to what students are learning in our classrooms and what they need to know to venture forth in the world. There is no doubt in my mind that one year our own Chenery graduates will be attending this Festival to share their published stories. Belmont Media Center was present and soon you will be able to see the Festival for yourself on local cable! Our new Belmont Books store will be open in June and they were present to answer any questions their excited public has about this new venture. We look forward to working with Belmont Books on future events! Again, I am so deeply grateful for your support!
"Apology field trip" for Ferry Beach: Last year the annual Grade 5 overnight trip to Ferry Beach, ME was unexpectedly cancelled at the last minute. Due to its proximity to the end of the year there was no time to reschedule before the last day of school. The Chenery PTO asked me to offer a "make-up" trip to this year's current 6th graders (last year's Grade 5 students) and eventually we agreed to a one day trip. Grade 6 teachers were charged with finding a fun option for the entire grade. After assessing several sites they eventually decided on a single day excursion to Canobie Lake Park in Salem, NH. The trip will occur on Monday, June 19th.
Grade 8 Parents/Guardians: Please save the following important dates:
8th Grade Class Party
8th Grade "Moving Up" Ceremony
From our Community Service Coordinator:
I am delighted to let you know that the Belmontian Club organized a record-breaking set of activities, raising a total of $4500 and collecting 75 pairs of pajamas for the poor and homeless Massachusetts children serviced by Cradles to Crayons. We at BHS held our seventh annual "Pajamarama", our day to wear pajamas and a day of community building, fun, and fundraising. Students who gave a donation to Cradles to Crayons were entered into drawings for door prizes contributed by our merchant partners. Burbank, Wellington, and Chenery joined us with your own "PJ's for a Buck" days. The other activities we organized were a fundraising day at Belmont's Star Market, special promotions at Bertucci's –Alewife and Chipotle, and, in partnership with Belmont Car Wash (BCW), we dried cars there at the very end of April in exchange for a donation from BCW to Cradles to Crayons of $1 per car and tips received. RE/MAX Leading Edge in Belmont Center served as a community drop off site, as well. In this most successful of our seven campaigns, we know that we couldn't have done it without the help of so many. With thanks to the three of you for facilitating the support in your schools and to the teachers, students, and their families for participating.
PTO Guest Speaker:
Planning time on the Cape, the Coast of Maine, Block Island or at any coastal destination this summer? Join us for a special presentation on oceans and climate change and add a new element of discovery and meaning to your vacation.
GUEST SPEAKER: Peter Shelley, Senior Counsel, Conservation Law Foundation Wednesday, May 31 @ 7:00pm Chenery Auditorium
This discussion will focus on the importance of oceans to life on the planet, the paradox of how they are, at the same time, very big and yet hold finite resources, and it will examine how humans understand and manage our oceans through science, poetry, law, photography, diving, fishing, and in countless other ways. The talk will also consider the challenges we face in keeping our oceans healthy, including the ever-growing difficulties tied to climate change. The presentation will emphasize how great humans are at solving problems when we are focused on doing so and examine what remediation is being explored.
This will be an interactive presentation with awe-inspiring visuals and a dynamic discussion with Mr. Shelley. Don't miss this important discussion of the impact of climate change and environmental stewardship on one of New England's most precious resources, our oceans!

How many genders are there really? What is gender expression and how do implicit gender biases in education potentially damage all students' learning experiences? Discover ways in which perspectives about gender identity are shifting in education and how the focus on this area of social emotional learning fosters an inclusive school community where all students will increase their potential.
"Gender Identity and Expression in the Classroom: Increasing Your Child's Social-Emotional Learning"
Tuesday, May 23 @ 6:30-8:00 pm
Chenery Middle School Auditorium

Ally's letter to R. J. Palacio, the author of the novel Wonder, was selected as one of the top 10 best letters of all entries submitted in the state. This is a fantastic honor and we are so proud to have Ally as a new returning student to our school. Congratulations, Ally!

It was recently announced that Courteney Cox will reunite with "Friend" Lisa Kudrow, who is scheduled to make a guest appearance on Court's new show, "Cougar Town". This report came from the reputable TV Guide magazine so it must be true. Right?
(Image of Courteney Cox as Jules Cobb on ABC's Cougar Town – All Rights Reserved)
The former Monica and Phoebe from "Friends," will play different roles this time around. Courteney Cox has said her character will visit Lisa Kudrow's character, a dermatologist who is mean to Court's character on Cougar. No surprise there. If you watch Cougar Town you probably already know that Courtney's character thrives on interactions with characters who are mean to her onscreen.
There's the divorced neighbor across the street who has obvious disdain for Courtney's character. Yet she is determined to get him to like her and in a pathetic needy way. But it turns out to be funny and indeed, I actually know women like that even though it is sad, it's true to life.
Yes, I love the show. Even my guy loves the show which is weird because he's not normally into TV sitcomy shows. He does like Courteney and thinks she's really funny, cute and hot.
Courteney revealed "I did ask Matthew [Perry] if he'd play my boyfriend on the show," Cox adds, "but he thought it was a little too much after Chandler and Monica." On "Friends" Monica and Chandler, played by Perry, tie the knot.
Cox also said she'd love to have her pal Jennifer Aniston on the show too, if the right part came along. Courteney got huge ratings when Jen appeared on her FX Show Dirt and they shared a steamy kiss. There's no doubt that Courteney will find a place for Jennifer on her hit ABC show. She told TV guide "she's younger than me so she can't play my contemporary even though she did on Friends,". She also said "but I think we can find something great for her to play."
I do have to say that while I love Courteney and faithfully watch her show, I thought her hair looked so much better on Dirt. Her hair was magnficient in that series. It looked the best I have ever seen it, including when she was on Friends. I think Courteney looks good now, but I loved the way her hair used to look back on the Dirt series so much more.
Courteney sees Chris McMillan for her Red Carpet and special events but Chris does not do her hair for Cougar Town nor did he do her hair for Dirt. Courteney had a different celeb hairdresser for Dirt and a new one for Cougar Town.
Note to Courteney, please wear your hair like you did back on the Dirt days. It was spectacular.

I can't help it, I pick up things. I've mentioned before that I'm a pick-up artist. My eyes are usually trained toward the ground looking for the unexpected, the beautiful, the useful items that others often overlook. I've had friends and followers mention that I always find such unique items, but I tend to counter with the fact that I'm always looking.
Because of this tendency, I also have amassed quite a few collections. Just in the last few weeks, I've added to these stockpiles. What I'll do with my found treasures is usually a mystery, but sometimes I have an inkling.
My treasures aren't always found on the ground, but simply items that others might not take a second glace at.
I'm not always one to stop for piles of junk on the curbside. But, a box of rusty parts had me making a U-turn in my own neighborhood.
I couldn't wait to sort through the box to see what treasures emerged.
Another treasure I snapped up was this tiny beauty.
With all these treasures in my possession, I should probably get around to using them. One day. For now, they're just hoarded with all my other collections.
Do you find treasures in unexpected places too? How do use them?

Green Lantern Corps #46
- Story by

- Colors by
- Gabe Eltaeb and Randy Mayor
- Letters by
- Steve Wands

I'm normally a big fan of "Green Lantern Corps." Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason normally make this comic a great combination of crazy ideas and larger than life events. This is the first time, though, that I think this duo of creators bit off a tiny bit more than they could chew. Or, at least, I hope that's what the problem was.
Maybe it's because it's the final issue of "Green Lantern Corps" to tie into "Blackest Night," but it felt like Tomasi was just throwing everything at the wall in this issue to see what would stick. Multiple Corps slugging it out against a horde of Black Lanterns, an undead planet zooming over the horizon, and even an evil zombie refrigerator making an appearance. No, I'm not making up that last one. I've liked the idea that "Green Lantern" and "Green Lantern Corps" have served as "overflow" annexes to "Blackest Night" and holding all the ideas that the main series couldn't. It kept the core of "Blackest Night" uncluttered and streamlined, but for the first time it now is starting to feel like there were too many ideas for even these extra titles to carry.
The most painful portion of the book, easily, is the much ballyhooed appearance of the fridge with Kyle Rayner's dead girlfriend Alex inside. When it first showed up, I found myself laughing at the ludicrousness of a fridge hanging in orbit, complete with a corpse arm hanging out. It looks like it's something being played for laughs, some dark comedy amid all the destruction raging everywhere. But as the scene between Kyle and Alex plays out, it becomes rapidly clear that it's not supposed to be funny at all. A play-by-play re-enactment of Alex's death ends up just being too much, though, and for a story about the dead coming back to life and trying to destroy everything I still found this scene distasteful.
At the same time, the extra pages in this issue provide some good moments, like Guy Gardner's plan to use all the Corps to wipe out the Black Lanterns, or scenes involving Dove that seem important enough that I was surprised they were here and not in "Blackest Night" #8 later this month. It also gives Gleason and Rebecca Buchman room to draw some really spectacular splash pages; they use the two-page spreads quite well, letting the sheer number of characters rage across the expanse. I can already hear scanners being turned on left and right so that people can create their new desktop wallpapers from some of these pages, in fact. They do a nice job with the softer moments in this issue, too; the scene with Guy Gardner and his Black Lantern facing off have some particularly excellent looks on each of their faces as they go up against one another.
"Green Lantern Corps" #46 isn't a bad issue, but it feels a little muddled and unfocused. The tone shifts a bit too much for my taste, and the scenes involving the fridge seem grafted on and out of place. It's a strange misstep for a book that is normally so much better, but at least their misstep is still an average comic overall.

Pismo Beach police identified the man who fell off a 40-foot cliff onto the rocks in Shell Beach on Monday as Francois Hughes.
Hughes fell off a cliff at the end of Boeker Street around 4 p.m., Rick Howard, a captain with Cal Fire in Pismo Beach, said Monday.
Pismo Beach police Cmdr. Jake Miller said today the incident appears to be accidental, but police are continuing to investigate other possibilities. Miller said police talked to Hughes at the scene but that he was unable to give officers a statement.
Hughes, who is in his 40s and lives in Shell Beach, was taken to Arroyo Grande Community Hospital after rescuers hiked down the cliff and brought him up on a stretcher.
Howard said that he has sustained severe trauma to his right side; an update on Hughes' condition was not immediately known this morning.

Michael Cueto is a former Junior Guard and Oceano Lifeguard. Back in 2013, Michael created the Junior Lifeguard program here at Oceano Dunes with the first summer having a total of 13 students. The program continues to grow each summer. Michael is now a State Park Peace Officer/Lifeguard and has returned to the Dunes to continue the Oceano Lifeguard and Junior Guard legacy. This program wouldn't be here if it was not for his creativity and drive. Michael enjoys surfing, mountain biking, running, swimming, and competing / organizing lifeguard competitions. His favorite board is the 5'4 JG soft top, while he enjoys a good whomping at Ocean Beach, SF. Michael's favorite sea animal is the cormorant (flightless bird) also known as the Nannopterum Harrisi.
Julia Donath was born and raised in the delightful city of San Luis Obispo, California. After a childhood of competitive swimming and water polo, Julia's parents thrust her out of her comfortable bubble of chlorine and into the chilling waters of the central coast by forcefully enrolling her in Avila Beach Junior Lifeguards. Despite her initial terror, Julia quickly fell in love with the junior guards program, establishing a strong connection to the ocean environment that later compelled her to pursue a job as a California State Parks Lifeguard at the age of 16. She has fallen in love with advocating and protecting her environment by majoring in Environmental Science. Julia loves riding her Fresh Pineapples longboard anywhere that has good waves and fun people, although her favorite surf spot is a secret that only the hardest working junior guards will have access to. Julia is also absolutely obsessed with sea otters, but her favorite sea creatures are the Oceano Junior Lifeguards.

Prom Night in Mississippi – New doc by Morgan FreemanFriday, 20 November, 2009
Prom Night In Mississippi -> New doc by Morgan Freeman.
In 1997, Morgan Freeman offered to pay for the senior prom at Charleston High School in Mississippi under one condition: the prom had to be racially integrated. His offer was ignored. In 2008, Freeman offered again. This time the school board accepted, and history was made. Until then, blacks and whites had had separate proms even though their classrooms have been integrated for decades. PROM NIGHT IN MISSISSIPPI captures a big moment in a small town, where hope finally blossoms in black, white and a whole lot of taffeta.

Wherever life takes you, friends are forever with you
Yesterday was a good day out.
We had a get together my friends and I. Once in a while, we would find the time for a meet up.
It would be the best time of our live and how we wish that the time would happen quite more frequent.
Almost impossible.
We are always busy with live and careers.
We used to be in the same classes in high school. Then, the friendship continued in Penang Matriculation, Medical School in Russia until these very moment.
We were single.
Then, everyone got married.
Now, whenever we meet up, it was like a nursery. Everyone having a baby or two, to tend to. Havoc!
My friend the MUA, Shazreeyana had a makeup job in Senawang, so she booked a water chalet room at the Lexis PD for 2 nights. She invited our friend, Dr Cud who has just completed confinement for her second baby girl in Kedah and returning to Seremban where her husband is residing and working, for a sleepover.
My husband and I as usual will visit my MIL in Nilai for weekend so we will head to PD on Saturday afternoon first.
They were 5 of us and each one with our partners and babies forming a group of 10 adults.
Our men were dragged with us too often that they became fast friend and these days, we would naturally form 2 groups, the ladies and the gentlemen. We ladies hanged out in the room switching between 2 beds to nurse our babies, patted them to sleep while exchange stories. 3 months of stories.
The gentlemen showed themselves the balcony, chilling on the lazy chair facing the sea, also exchanging their stories with different theme from ours.
Basically, everyone got to chill out, pretending to be single and young again.
During the school days, the 3 of us, Cud, Yana and me, thought that we wanted to become a doctor when we grow up. We went to medical schools but only Cud and I continued with the profession.
Yana found a bigger interest. She was always interested in grooming since high school. Nowadays she is an MUA in demand in her own right generating enough income to splendour herself with designers handbags. You can follow her Make up page by Shazreeyana in instagram and fb. Despite many would raise their eyebrows to her choice of career instead of completing her medical degrees, she has proven herself that she can be succesful as long as she believes in herself and putting hard work. She wasn't scared to pursue her dream.
When we started out in schools, little that we know, we would be friends forever.
29 years old and the relationship is still going strong. More fabulous years to come and more vacation plan in the future.
Having a strong group of friends behind your back will keep your life exciting and meaningful.
Here to a successful and beautiful life. May life bring the most fruitful gifts and may this friendships never stop growing:)

I go for walks in the woods on the North Shore pretty frequently; this is Vancouver, and we love our outdoor sports and spaces.
Some of those trails are pretty well-trod; and some of the areas, like between the suspension bridge and the Pool in Lynn Canyon, are so popular that there is no longer a 'trail' per se; the entire broad swath of forest floor between the safety fence along the canyon edge and the steep mountain shoulder on the other side is compacted to a hard black-brown sheen amongst the tree trunks.
Personally, these super-trails aren't my favourite places to go for a restorative walk in nature. However, when I'm taking my kids into nature, these well-worn places are the absolute best: wild, yes, but already so touched, loved, and explored by humankind that my children's footprints, handholds, scuffs are indistinguishable from the thousands of others'. I can actually let them free to explore as they are inclined -- touching, poking, pulling, climbing, jumping, building, whacking -- to explore with their whole bodies, and all their senses and imagination as, I would argue, they need to in order to really develop a relationship with the land.
I have respect for pressures on the wild places around us; I don't want everything to look like Lynn Canyon's hard packed forest super-trail. If the land is untouched, then we stay on the trail and we 'leave no trace'. It's good stewardship.
But 'leave no trace' leaves little room for children to learn wholly, and even less to learn to love -- nature becomes a mere backdrop, a pretty picture, an untouchable moral decree. One of my children refuses to go for a walk in the woods at all unless we promise him digging and/or climbing opportunities -- what's the point of looking at the stuff? he wonders.
When I was a child, and now when I work with children, I've found that what kindles passion for nature is building stuff with it, poking it apart, finding out what the different pieces are and, especially, creating rich fantasies about how we might use them. These archetypical experiences and the imaginary world they conjure seem to allow the children to see themselves as a part of nature, and to bond with it. I believe that it sets them on the path not necessarily to strict conservation of the wild spaces in a 'do not touch' sense, but to a love of nature that will propel them into stewardship as a whole.
I was happy to see this article at Slate.com, to hear of the growing awareness of children's needs regarding how they play and explore in nature (not just their presence in the midst of it), and certain efforts to create spaces within parks where children are free to be that way -- doing all the whacking, building, jumping, climbing, poking and digging that they need.
I also delighted in this website from the UK, GoingWild.net, an inspiring and very informative resource and support for parents and caregivers trying to get their kids outside for nature-based play and exploration.
Let's keep going outside and messing around in nature, so that future generations retain the use of more than their thumbs! and develop the biophilia to want to be good stewards of the land.

Smoke Art - Try it yourself
I do love my little projects. Most Photographers will have another side to their interests in Photography. I loved drawing and painting when I was younger but these days I find I have replaced the paintbrush with a DSLR but still been able to achieve what I have visualised in my head.
I regularly go amongst Photography groups that cover a subject that I find interesting. There could be a whole variety of images taken in loads of different ways to represent the same thing ! I am drawn to Floral, Insect, macro and micro photography. I also love Portraits and Abstract.
Which leads me to my initial interest in SmokeArt and how I achieve it.
This image set me off on the Journey to wanting to discover how this was achieved. https://www.flickr.com/photos/parc/322902484/in/faves-cjcoolcat/ back in December 2006. But it wasn't until Dec 2009 I actually got round to doing it. Now I love them and continue to take more photos of them today.
All you need is -
Click away ! If the image looks fairly dark/ under exposed change your ISO setting to around ISO400-ISO600. This should still produce images with little noise/grain however if it does then you can always make some small adjustments in Lightroom/Photoshop to compensate.
Some of my images are inverted. This changes the black background to white. You may notice that the smoke will not necessarily be grey or black, instead it will be blue, pink, orange or green. Which adds an interesting effect to your image.
You can also change the colour channels across the image to bring out different colours along the strands of smoke.
Here are some examples that I have produced.
The first image above was straight from camera with a little colour adjustment to make it more interesting, with the second image I changed the hue to change the colour and on the 3 image I simply inverted it to create a negative effect from the first image.
The first image above looks a little like a dancer. The second image above is from 2 incense sticks and the 2 image looks a little like a jelly fish.
Sometimes shots don't always go to plan, it takes a little practice but you should be getting results fairly quickly. Here are some shots I took that didn't turn out as planned.
Image 1 - is due to Light Pollution. - The light was shining in to the lens. Just change the angle of your lens away from the light source.
Image 2 - was just too messy. Watch what the smoke does, it will change constantly. Click away all you like, but you are looking for a nice clean drift of smoke that creates a nice pattern.
Image 3 - shows you the light source I was using and the incense stick at the bottom. I moved the light so that it came from the left side then zoomed in on the smoke only so that the incense stick was out of view.
Happy snapping !

If you are looking for something to take your mind off of pumpkin spice, here are a few Des Moines haunted house options, including one haunt that is returning after a three-year hiatus.
Multi-weekend commercial haunts:
Linn's Supermarket Haunted House
Location: 3805 6th Ave, Des Moines IA 50313 (at Linn's Supermarket)
Nights of Operation: Sept 29-30, Oct 6-7, 13-14, 20-31, 2017. (18 nights) Opens at 7 p.m.
Admission: $15. $5-off coupon available for the first two weekends.
Website: www.linnshauntedhouse.com
Details: Although the ownership of Linn's Supermarket changed in 2016, Merlyn Linn retained the rights to operate his haunted house in the basement of the building. A tradition since 1984, visitors can still crawl and wander through pitch black passages and be startled by various ghouls, monsters and (of course) clowns. As the longest running haunt in the area, Linn's is now making 3rd generation fans scream (and laugh). Visitors drive from hours away to experience this classic, which chooses to startle rather than gross you out with blood and gore. It's a true retro-classic haunted house experience, and unlike any others around.
RELATED: Greater Des Moines Deals and Discounts
Location: 97 Indiana Ave, Des Moines IA 50314 (downtown)
Nights: Oct 6-7, 13-15, 19-22 and 26-29, 2017. (13 nights) Opens at 7p.m.
Admission: $20. $2 off coupons available on Zombie Burger receipts.
Website: www.herepig.com
Details: Themed as a pig rendering factory, this haunt was formerly held from 2010-2013 in three different locations before shutting down and being sold off to the now-defunct Ankeny Haunted Barn. This year, it returns in a new permanent location downtown. This allows them to replace their former dark metal hallways with movie-style sets like something you'd see at Universal Studios. They also promise high end masks, makeup and even scents. For those looking for a very intense (and bloody) experience, this will be the place. There's even going to be a Slaughterhouse shuttle bus taking victims back and forth from Zombie Burger's downtown location.
Sleepy Hollow Haunted Scream Park
Location: 4051 Dean Ave, Des Moines IA 50317 (East of the Iowa State Fairgrounds)
Nights: Oct 6-7, 13-14, 19-22, 26-29 and 31, 2017. (13 nights) Opens at 6:45 p.m.
Admission: $30 Park Pass or $25 Pick 3 Pass (11 and under: $28 and $23). Purchase discounted tickets online.
Website: www.sleepyhollwscreampark.com
Details: Hands-down, this is the largest haunted attraction in the area, made up of five different haunts houses/walks (Castle of Blood, Chaos, Freakshow, Nightmare Estates, and Twisted Tales: The Next Chapter) plus several bonus attractions. This year, Twisted Tales receives an additional indoor scene - the largest Sleepy Hollow has ever built. Also new is the inclusion of Black Ops: Zombie Paintball Hunt in the Park Pass. The past two years, this was an add-on ticket that had to be purchased separately. There are also a number of bonus attractions such as 3-D Gallery: Aliens Attack, Club Blood (silent disco), 13 Gates Fog Maze, and Infection: Laser Tag ($5 extra). While most of the individual haunted houses are quite short compared to the other standalone haunts in the area, expect to spend a whole evening here if you want to see everything. Food and drink is also available, so come hungry.

Community haunted houses and home haunts:
Waukee Haunted House
Location: Centennial Park, Waukee IA 50263
Nights: Oct 27-28, 2017. (2 nights) 7 – 10 p.m.
Admission: $5. $1 off if you bring three non-perishable donations for the Waukee Area Food Pantry.
Website: www.waukee.org/475/Halloween-Haunted-House
Details: Each Halloween, Waukee turns this park shelter into an enclosed haunted house. This year's theme has not been announced, but their website warns: "This haunted house is not suggested for young children."
Haunting of Fright Manor (Home Haunt)
Location: 4102 138th St, Urbandale IA 50323
Nights: Oct 20, 28, 30-31. 6:30 - 9:30 p.m.
Admission: Free, but they collect donations for the Animal Rescue League of Iowa (food, bedding and monetary donations).
Website: www.facebook.com/urbandalefrightmanor
Details: This is a haunted house built in their garage. It is kid-friendly and nothing will be trying to scare you. There are many cool scenes to check out as you wander through at your own pace.
RELATED: Fall in Greater Des Moines
The addition of the Slaughterhouse should help spread the crowds around this year, but you can still count on huge lines on peak Friday and Saturday nights. Historically, lines have exceeded two hours on Halloween weekend! Try to go early in the season, or choose a non-weekend night. If you have to go when it's busy, be there right when the haunt opens.
Since outdoor haunts can be impacted by weather. Be sure to check the haunt's Facebook page for any updates before driving out.
Appropriate clothing and footwear is important even for indoor haunts. Some might have you crawling, climbing stairs or ramps, or walking through dirt outdoors. Be aware of any physical limitations you might have, and contact the haunt operator before your visit to ask any questions.
But most of all … be prepared to scream and have fun! #CATCHdsm

During my time with Blue Cross, I had the opportunity to work in a unique and valuable environment. I was a technology professional who did not work within an information technology (IT) department.
Initially, I desired to make that transition, interviewing for positions within IT. None of these positions offered either the pay or opportunity I was seeking. For a period of my career, this frustrated me. I initially coveted an IT title. I discovered, however, that I truly wanted the opportunities I was already being faced with every day.

Ask Us
Q. Where is Library North or South?
There is only a single library building on the CSUDH campus, located roughly in the center of the campus, between Lacorte Hall, the gymnasium, the student union, and the Natural Science and Mathematics building. It is divided into two parts, North and South, which are connected by a bridge.
You can see our location on the following map:
The SOUTH side of the library is the newest part, and is easily recognized by its glass windows. The NORTH side of the library is the original building, and is the side of the library through which you enter and exit.
There is only a single entrance into the library, located in Library North, so you don't need to worry about being in the wrong building.
For maps of each floor of the library, including call numbers for books please see: http://www4.csudh.edu/library/info/shelvinglocations/index

A boy works to find his words. Words that come out in noises and vocalizations. He wants to talk, he wants to be clear, but his mouth fails him. Movements required to bring clarity of words are limited and halted. It is as if his body and it's parts betrays his mind and beautiful language stays trapped in heart, head, and mouth.
His mama becomes his biggest cheerleader, coach, and speech therapist all in one. She finds her voice and lets her words encourage his to come forth. He responds. He lights up all joy filled and happy. His eyes tell her thanks and his body sits up in appreciation. He keeps communicating with her and the dance continues. His words are no clearer, but he doesn't notice because he was heard. She heard his efforts. She loved him anyway. She met him where he was at and that made all the difference.

PGDC Welcomes EzCharitable as a New Contributing Author
EzCharitable, LLC is a new online company created by Lee Hoffman, CEO of the PGDC, and Randy Fox, EIC of the PGDC, to help advisors bridge the gap of charitable planning software, training, and case design and implementation required to assist their clients with their philanthropy, and in return raise as much money for charity and those they serve.
PGDC sponsors new philanthropy training partner, EzCharitable
Lee Hoffman, CEO of the Planned Giving Design Center and Randy Fox, PGDC's Editor-In-Chief, have founded EzCharitable, an online training and advisor consultancy, to increase the success of advisors in working with their clients and their family philanthropy. For years PGDC members have been asking for additional training and EzCharitable will meet that need.
Why EzCharitable? Lee Hoffman states it very simply, "Recent studies have shown that high net-worth families want their advisors to be able to assist them with their philanthropy. The better-trained advisors we have in all aspects of planned giving and philanthropy, the more the advisor's clients, charity and the advisors will benefit. It's a 'win-win-win' and I've been saying that since 1979. The problem is, the percentage of advisors who are well trained has not increased to meet current demand. The mission of EzCharitable is to change this"
Randy Fox, EzCharitable's content architect, announced that EzCharitable will concentrate on four distinct categories of education;
- Opening the philanthropic conversation with the advisor's client,
- Gift opportunity recognition,
- The technical aspects of planned giving,
- And advisor collaboration.
Additionally, EzCharitable will be providing planned giving software and case design implementation so all, regardless of their expertise, can benefit from the services of EzCharitable. "These are the three initial areas of need we will be providing," Says Hoffman.

I was unable to connect to the webinar yesterday and would like to attend the next one if possible.
Were there technical problems with the webinar presentation or was it my low IT skills that prevented me from participating? The next one will be perfect.

There is an interesting story in the Zen tradition.
A disciple went to see the Master. It was raining, so he brought an umbrella with him. Before entering the Master's house, he left his wet umbrella and shoes in the verandah. Later, in the middle of some serious conversation, Master suddenly asked "did you put your shoes on the left side of the umbrella or on the right side?"
The disciple was astonished and could not understand the relevance of this question in the middle of such a serious spiritual dialogue. Confused, he said "I don't remember. But Master! Why is it important? What difference does it make if the shoes are on the right or left side of the umbrella?"
"Awareness", the Master said.
"You need to be aware of your Self; every nook and corner of the inside of your mind, of every thought and desire. To practice this, you can start by being aware of your surroundings".
This is true for most of us. Isn't it? We hardly pay attention to our surroundings. We may walk few miles without noticing any trees or buildings or people on the way. Once in a while, some extraordinary thing may attract our attention momentarily but we hardly remember any details later. The difference between ordinary people and the scientists and philosophers is that the later pay detailed attention to the ordinary things. For thousands of years, man had seen the fruits falling from the trees. It is an ordinary natural phenomenon so no one ever paid any attention to it. But Isaac Newton was different. When an apple fell on is head, he did not see it as an ordinary phenomenon. He looked at it seriously, thought about it deeply, over and over, and discovered the law of gravity.
We can also learn to pay proper attention by looking, rather than seeing; by listening, rather than hearing; by analyzing rather than assuming.
By practicing the 'mindfulness' of our outer surroundings, we can eventually learn to be aware of our 'inside' also.
"Be aware of your thoughts", the Upanishad says.
The Zen Master wanted to know if the disciple placed his shoes on the left or the right side of the umbrella.
We should ask ourselves on which side we have placed God; before or after the 'Maya', the materialistic world.
In our mind, does the world revolve around God, or the thoughts and Sumiran of God circles around our worldly needs and desires.
'Rajan Sachdeva'

At Honeybear nursery our commitment to equal opportunities is shown by our equality statement – set out below:
Equality statement
It should be noted that when reading this document and considering the care provided at Honeybear, that every effort is made to treat each individual as a person in their own right, with equal rights and responsibilities to any other individual of a similar age, whether they be adult or child.
Planning informs how individual needs of each child are going to be met and we also request information on the child's individual daily routines and any specific medical or dietary requirements on the child's settling in week.
We commit ourselves to working with parents/carers and outside agencies and specialists and have regard to the SEN code of practice and this is put into practice whenever required, this is over seen by the SENCo and staff at the nursery closely liaise with the SENCo to set appropriate targets and learning plans for children with special educational needs.
Discrimination under sex, race, religion, colour, creed, marital status, ethnic or national origin or political belief has no place in the nursery and should any person believe that this policy is not being totally complied with it is their duty to bring the matter to the attention of the nursery manager at the earliest opportunity and the matter will be dealt with in accordance with the nursery's disciplinary procedures.
The nursery values and promotes diversity and differences through our cultural celebration calendar, planned activities, displays, resources such as dressing up, cultural pots and pans, posters, stories and music. Through the use of these we are encouraging our children to value and respect others. We adjust all the activities on offer to the capabilities and needs of the children.
We are aware of our obligations under the Equality Act 2010 and the Disability discrimination act 2005 and our admission statement reflects this, we do however accept the need to go further. We will endeavour to fulfil not only our legal requirements but also the spirit of the act, in our recruitment policy and the accessibility of our services to parents, carers and the general public.
At Honeybear nursery we are also conscious of our responsibility to ensure that whilst pursuing a policy of equal opportunity and the equal treatment of every individual, we must balance this with a respect for the different cultures and religions we serve within the community.
This policy is reviewed alongside all other policies and procedures; this is to monitor the effectiveness of the policy and is done within the staff team annually and as and when needed.

You've always wanted to know what happens in the wikifolios on your watchlist? You want to see the latest trades and comments from your favorite traders without clicking into every single wikifolio? This was the case with many users of our wikifolio.com community – until now. So we racked our brains in the past months over how a message overview for our users could look like – and got going on the development work. As of today, the beta version of the new wikifolio events is available for registered users on wikifolio.com.
Starting today, as a registered user you can access the "wikifolio activities" in your watchlist area. Now it's even easier to follow the events in your favorite wikifolios and on wikifolio.com and to always stay on top of things. The wikifolio events are your personal overview about news and information on the wikifolios on your watchlist.
The following news will be available in the first version of the wikifiolio activities:
By entering the wikifolio title on the right-hand side of your wikifolio activities, you can filter by events in a particular wikifolio on your watchlist. By enabling or disabling individual activity categories, you can refine your search results or the entire event feed.
To obtain your feedback on the functionality or any problems with the use of wikifolio activities, we have added a "feedback" button to the page. You can find it at the lower right edge of the browser window; upon clicking, it will prompt you to comment on the newly created screenshot of the current page of the wikifolio activities or to optionally mark specific items. You can optionally enter your data or another message in the dialog box on the bottom right. It is important to click the Send button once you're done.
