Soaked Wheat Bread
Step One: Mix all together, cover, and let sit at room temperature for 12-24 hours:
- 4 c. water
- 3/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 c. honey
- 2 tsp. salt
- 12 c. freshly milled whole wheat flour (I use Prairie Gold or Hard White, sometimes adding in some Hard Red as well. Hard Red Wheat is strongly flavored and dense, which adds a nice nutty touch to the bread but you don't want to use it exclusively. It should be mixed half-and-half with Hard White Wheat.)
Step Two: Once your dough has set for 12-24 hours, "proof" your yeast:
- 3 Tblsp active dry yeast
- a bit of honey
- 1/3 c. or so of very warm water (but not hot)
- 1/4-1/2 c. unbleached white flour
Your dough will probably be pretty sticky at this point, so add a cup or two of unbleached flour until it is a good consistency.
Put your dough aside and let it rise until doubled. Because your dough isn't warm, it will take several hours. To speed up the process you can put it in a warm room, near the fireplace or a heater, etc.
Once the dough has risen, shape it into loaves or rolls, let rise again and then bake in a 350 degree F oven for 25 minutes (rolls) or 35-45 minutes (loaves).
Alright, now for the die-hard health-nut no-white-flour version!
~ In Step One, instead of 12 cups of flour, add more like 15 - enough flour to make a good dough.
~ In Step Two, your it will be very stiff at this point, and hard to mix the yeast in. So you will want to score the top of the dough with a knife, and then pour the yeast mixture on it and let it absorb for a few minutes. Then spend several minutes with your hands working it in. I suppose a strong mixer with dough hooks would do the job quite nicely, but I never have done it that way.
You shouldn't have to add any more flour after step 1, so all of your flour will be soaked.
This is how I have always made it in the past, but when I made bread yesterday I decided to try using a few cups of unbleached flour and it was so much easier! ;-) White flour from the store doesn't need to be soaked because it doesn't have bran in it, which is where the phytic acid is.
Apparently my experiment was a success: my brother took a bite of bread and said "Who made this bread? It's GOOD!"
Sorry I don't have pictures. My camera batteries were dead. ;-(
I'd love to hear from you: Is there another way y'all make soaked bread? I'm still learning about it and would love to hear your ideas!

It's #throwbacktravelthursday! The Tobago Love edition (part 2)
Throwback Travel Thursday is here again! As a reminder, in these blogs, I'll be writing about Tarik's and my travels around the world from 2007 to the present. Here we go…
Get ready for part 2 of the Tobago Love Edition. In case you missed part 1, click here to get caught up.
What can you do in Tobago that's unique/special? [continued from part 1]
If you're into sightseeing and taking in the local scene, just a few of the spots to visit are:
The Argyle Falls. A scenic, lovely spot with 3 easily accessible levels of waterfalls. There are many more, but the 3 levels are accessible via a cleared hiking path. The other upper levels are not cleared for easy hiking. Trust me, just sitting at the bottom of the falls and taking in all of the scenery is enough to bring peace to your soul. There's a small entrance fee and there are guided tours every couple of hours if you'd like to learn more about the history of the falls and surrounding property.
- Gemma's Treehouse. Yes, it is a restaurant. Yes, part of the restaurant is in a tree. And yes, the food is spectacular! Getting some local cuisine has never been so unique or fun. Be sure to go early for lunch to get a wider array of local foods.
- Speaking of more great food – visit Store Bay Beach for more local flavor. The ladies of Store Bay Beach do not disappoint! Store Bay Beach is a cool "limin" beach. If you don't know what "limin" is, it's this – hanging out, chillin' with usually some kind of food, music and friends/family. Laughter usually plays a big part in "limin"!
If water sports are your thing, then this is the island for you! Tobago offers everything from yachting to snorkeling and everything in between. Here are a few of the water activities that I highly recommend:
Glass bottom boat and Nylon Pool trip. There is a natural reef area around the southern tip of Tobago known as the Buccoo Reef. During the glass bottom boat trips, you can see colorful fish and the natural coral in the water. On some boat trips you can go snorkeling. Also on some trips you get to stop at the Nylon Pool, which is a lovely shallow area in the middle of the ocean. The Nylon Pool is many miles off the coast of Tobago, with clear, gentle waters and is shallow enough for you to stand in the white sand. This is (just) another great photo op!
- Stand up paddling. If you'd like to experience a gentle water sport, then stand up paddling is for you! You'll get your own surf board, a paddle, an instructor in the shallow parts of the ocean. You don't need to know how to swim since the water is quite shallow and you'll be outfitted with a life jacket. A lesson is usually about 1 hour and you'll learn the basics. Once you've got that down, why not try a night time lesson? Tobago's has unique flora and fauna that light up at night, giving you a glow in the dark experience that you won't soon forget!
Yachting. This is my fave thing to do in Tobago. Just find a local yachting company, book a spot or spots for you and your friends and they'll handle the rest! Some companies offer pick up at your hotel or villa and will take you directly to the yacht. Spend the day sunning on the yacht or do some snorkeling to see the fishies! If your trip features a trip to No Man's Land, then you're in for a treat. No Man's Land is a narrow strip of land and features BBQ parties, beautiful scenery (yes for more photos) and is perfect for a lime. Some yacht trips feature an open bar and catered lunch.
The E.piphany factor
Having had several E.piphany's while visiting Tobago myself, it scores very high in my opinion – 4.5 out of 5. What's the E.piphany factor? I like to refer to this as having those special moments that allow you to re-evaluate or re-assess your life and what you're currently doing with it. With Tobago's amazing scenery, awesome sunrises and sunsets, and high chill factor you're guaranteed to have many of these moments while you're visiting there. Hey, you might end up like some tourists and decide to live there!
I hope you enjoyed learning just a little bit about Tobago, one of my favorite places on Earth! If you're interested in traveling to Tobago with me, check out Ultimate Trinidad Carnival's Tobago Love Upgrade! We're taking just a few lucky people to experience Tobago (and it's already 50% sold out). You'll get to enjoy the activities listed in this blog and stay at a fantastic villa, right on the beach!

Thanks as always for reading and til next time…

Elizabeth Warren Spoke Out Against ISDS
US Senator Elizabeth Warren, advocate and luminary against banking and other monied interests' influence in politics, spoke out against Investor-State Dispute Settlement of the TPP.
A hypothetical threat used in her speech of a foreign company forcing the US to repeal a toxic chemical ban using ISDS has already happened in Canada. Multiple times (see cases).
Some notable quotes:
- "ISDS does not have independent judges. Instead it has highly paid corporate lawyers go back and forth between representing corporations one day and sitting in judgment of corporations the next."
- "Only international investors get to use these courts"
- "ISDS was born to encourage foreign investments in countries with weak legal systems. … I don't know if these justifications made sense back then but they sure don't make sense now. Countries in TTP are hardly emerging economies with weak legal systems."
Some ISDS lawsuits cited:
- "French company sued Egypt when it raised minimum wage"
- "A Swedish company sued Germany for trying to phase out nuclear power after the Fukushama disaster." (see case)
- "A Dutch company sued the Czeck Republic because it didn't bail out a bank that the Dutch company partially owns"
- "Philip Morris" is trying to use ISDS to stop Uruguay from implementing anti-tobacco regulations aimed at cutting domestic smoking rates" (see case)
And closing remarks:
"Conservatives who believe in American sovereignty are outraged that ISDS shifts power from American courts as envisioned by our constitution to unaccountable international tribunals. Libertarians are offended that ISDS effectively offers a free taxpayers' subsidy to countries with weaker legal systems. And progressives should oppose ISDS because it allows big multinationals to weaken labor and environmental rules.
Giving foreign corporations special rights to challenge our laws outside of our legal system is a bad deal."

Prompts for stabilizing your lead leg while playing golf
One of the most important elements of keeping your leg stabilized while playing golf includes achieving a good sense of balance. This element is important because of a number of changes that happen as you make your swing. Your body weight may shift from one leg to the other and this can affect how you follow through with your swing. Your lead leg is what helps you get power into your swing, but if there is an issue in how weight shifts in this leg this could affect the outcome or lead to a faulty swing.
Why Balance is Important
Our sense of balance changes as we get older. Even if you have been playing golf for a while you may have an idea of how your body weight shifts depending on how you swing your iron. If you have experienced an injury due to an accident such as a foot, angle or hip injury, you notice your balance is thrown off due to damage of the nerve. It becomes more of a challenge when aging is a factor especially if you don't take precautions to help improve or maintain your balance.
When Exercising Can Help Your Balance
There are exercises you can do to help improve your balance. It is a matter of finding compatible options that will help you on the golf course. Because your lead leg plays an important role in helping you swing, you may consider exercises that are good to do on one leg. You can do a single leg balance test that includes standing on one leg with your legs spread apart and your feet the same distance as your hips. Your arms hang to your sides as you lift one leg and hold it steady. You should try to hold the position for 25 seconds or more. You can have another person spot you if you think your balance is off track. Do the same for the other leg and note any differences.
Other Helpful Tips for Lead Leg Balance
You can consider other leg exercises that help you with balance. There are tests such as the single leg balance test and a similar one that you do with your iron in hand. The standing open-leg rocker is another form of leg exercise that is helpful in understanding how your weight and stability are challenged while you are moving.

Fuji Masterpiece Award
FUJIFILM MASTERPIECE AWARDS Rules/ Guidelines for 2017
The FUJIFILM 2017 Masterpiece Award will be awarded to a PPA member residing in the U.S. at the discretion of the local PPA print competition committee to the photographer in each of three (3) separate categories
whose printed image work best represents the applicable category and reflects the highest level of professional photography, best meets the criteria for the award and has received a score of 80 or higher on a scale of up to 100. National, regional and state affiliates of PPA are responsible for administering the FUJIFILM 2017 Masterpiece Award program, including soliciting entries, advertising the program, and developing national, regional or state affiliate program rules and terms as necessary. Fujifilm will provide documentation for the identified award winners and upon successful verification will be responsible for coordinating distribution of the award trophy, certificate and lapel pin as referenced below.
The PPA print competitions are to be conducted by PPA at the national, regional and state level during time frames to be determined by the applicable affiliate. The purpose of PPA print competitions is to allow PPA member photographer entrants to demonstrate their art skills and expertise in pursuit of the PPA Master Artist degree (previously known as Master of Electronic Imaging degree). Entries are to be judged by PPA committees for digital, artistic and technical proficiency. Entries may be created using digital or traditional art (such as painting and airbrush) or a combination of both. Through this competition, PPA members are also eligible to achieve PPA Artist Exhibition Merits toward the PPA Master Artist degree.
Requirements for the submitting photographers are as follows:
Judges for the PPA's national and regional print competitions should be selected from among a list of approved and PPA Trained peers in the PPA. At state level, judges may be appointed by the state print competition chair based on experience. The judging committee should generally consist of 5 – 8 judges.
Scoring should resemble historic scoring of printed images at the PPA regional print competitions, with ranges generally between 65 and 100 points, and printed images scored based on how they meet the 12 Elements of a Merit Image. Generally, the following scale should be used:
100 - 95: Exceptional
74 - 70: Average
The honored Photographers will be named in a national press release to be issued by Fujifilm. In addition, the FUJIFILM 2017 Masterpiece Award recipients will receive a crystal glass trophy, a certificate of award, and a lapel pin (aggregate ARV $200).
Complete the form in the attached link:
I have used a FUJIFILM color paper in the making of this image. I respectfully request that it be considered for a Masterpiece Award in the category of:
Portrait ________ Wedding _______ Illustrative _______
Please adhere this to the back of your qualifying print for Fujifilm Masterpiece Award judging. Minimum Score Required for consideration: 80

When I first heard about Miche purses I could not believe someone had not thought of the idea sooner - I was in awe at how amazing it would be to not have to pull everything out of my purse and relocate it in to a new purse just to switch purses. I just had to get one, and so I did.
To be honest, they are a little pricey, but completely worth it once you have purchased the starter set. At that point you have the basic purse and all you need to do is buy the various shells, or designs, that go on the outside of the purse shell.
Let me back up a little bit in case you have never heard of a Miche purse. The general idea is that you purchase a base purse in the size you prefer, I happen to own the Classic Bag and the Prima Bag. I love the large size of the Prima Bag. Example images of these two base bags are below, you can see other base bag sizes here.
Once you have the base bag you can go to town purchasing all sorts of shells that will cover the black base purse. The shells attach using magnets that are on the base purse and the shell, so you can change the design of your purse at any moment without having to clean out your whole purse! Here are some of the designs that I love and own, but you can find all sorts of designs, they call them 'shells', here! The first two below are the larger, Prima, size bag and the rest are the Classic size. The bags don't come with the green bow, I got that separately and tied it on.
As every girl needs, these purses also come with some great standard pockets. The Classic bag comes with two stretchy pockets on one side and a zipper pocket on the other. both fantastic for keeping personal items, a pen, cell phone, and anything else you can think of.
The Prima purse has even more pockets! It has three pockets, two on the long edge and one on the short side. One of the pockets has a ring for a pen to go on and 4 slots for important cards to go in, like your driver's license, credit cards, etc. On the other side of the purse there is a large zipper pocket - you can fit SO much in there, which I absolutely love.
I hope you find as much joy in the Miche purse as I do. I love bags, and so this is such a perfect purse for me to have. It makes a great gift as well, I would love to have gotten the starter set as a gift - and then getting a new shell every Christmas would be amazing!

Summerlin– The "Skatin' Rebels" went into tonight's game undefeated after their sweep against Arizona State. The stands at the brand new "City National Arena" were packed with excited Rebel fans eager for a win. The action started right away as two players from Colorado's team elbowed UNLV F Kameron Fink, drawing a 2 minute minor penalty. Barriga attempted a goal at 2:23 but came up short. The first period ended with no score.
The second period started with a scuffle on UNLV F D'Andre John. UNLV missed a prime scoring chance late in this period, ending with 1-0 score in favor of Colorado.
It was a hard fought period at the end of the game. The Rebels had a close goal at 2:58. The team did a great job at controlling the puck as they had the advantage on time on attack but weren't able to convert quality scoring chances into goals. A few inopportune bounces kept the game from going in the Rebels favor.
Head coach Anthony Vignieri-Greener said that there was not enough effort in the first period but as the game progressed, the team picked up. There were different playing styles that the Rebels defense was not ready for but is something to work on for tomorrow's game.
Final score was 3-0 Colorado. Next game is tomorrow at City National Arena at 1:30 pm.

Satin Youth Review
Skin care products that truly help can be difficult to find. Fortunately, Satin Youth is an internet exclusive anti-aging cream which has gained popularity with thousands of consumers around the world. Satin Youth works by boosting collagen and elastin production using well-researched ingredients giving you top-tier benefits. Currently, there is a promotional offer to try Satin Youth for free by only paying for the postage fee.
How Does Satin Youth Work?
Satin Youth is a state-of-the-art advanced anti-aging cream only available online. It's designed by veteran experts and is manufactured in an advanced manufacturing facility. The anti-wrinkle cream is created using a proprietary formula and hand selected ingredients that boost collagen and elastin production in the skin tissue. It also includes antioxidants which give you protection from free radicals.
What Are The Benefits Of Satin Youth?
Reduces Visible Wrinkles And Fine Lines
Wrinkles and fine lines are part of the natural aging process. But you can delay these signs of skin aging by using Satin Youth which helps by improving the production of collagen and elastin. The increase in collagen is said to improve skin cell regeneration which helps get rid of dead skin cells and improves skin hydration and suppleness. The increase in collagen also helps improve skin tissue architecture which helps visibly reduce skin wrinkles and fine lines.
Tightens And Firms Skin
This anti-aging cream's primary goal is to increase elastin production in the skin tissue. This is done using well-researched ingredients, allowing your skin to increase its natural elasticity. The increase in elasticity gives you firmer and tighter skin, allowing you to look up to 10 years younger.
Oxidation Stress Protection
Satin Youth contains antioxidants that help protect from oxidation stress. Oxidation stress is caused by free radicals, which are atoms with a missing electron. Due to external and internal factors, free radicals damage skin DNA by taking electrons from the surrounding cells leaving skin to lose its shine and radiance. The antioxidant ingredients help by combating the free radical damage by turning them inert and harmless.
How To Use Satin Youth?
Applying Satin Youth is simple with only 3 steps to follow. This anti-wrinkle cream also doesn't contain any harmful ingredients which can cause side effects allowing you to experience a reversal in your skin aging by up to 10 years.
The steps to younger looking skin are as follows:
- Cleanse your face and neck with warm water and a gentle face wash.
- Apply a sufficient amount of Satin Youth to your face, allowing the cream to be absorbed into the skin.
- Experience the benefits when used daily for a sufficient period of time.
How To Apply For Satin Youth Risk Free Trial?
Satin Youth is available to try for free before buying. Simply click on the link below and follow the instructions to apply for the risk free trial offer. With this promotional offer, for the price of shipping and handling, you can have Satin Youth delivered to your doorstep within days. This anti-aging cream is a great way to fight skin aging from the cellular level.

It is a recollection of a community that would suffer the most infamous mass murder of Lebanon's civil war. . . . Unexpectedly, the interviews in this book became a memorial, the lives, dreams and frustrations of a people devastated permeating its pages. Few things are more personal than dreams. In Malas' book, they form the greatest tribute to those who perished and a trove for those who don't want to forget."—Marguerite Dabaie, The Electronic Intifada

Sephora Harmony Face Powder Let's Dance Review & Swatches
Don't quote me but I could have sworn the new Sephora Harmony Powder was available in two shades but since the new Sephora website launched, I can't seem to find the other shade.
I'm having one of my senior moments maybe.
This is multi-purpose face powder with tangerine-inspired hues according to Sephora but honestly, inspired is the keyword here as there really isn't a whole lot of tangerine going on here, merely soft peachy shades of color.
Take a look!
Just like the Sephora Hot Hues Bronzer this comes housed in a massive compact about the size of a music CD. It's a ton of powder so if you have a larger stash you might want to second guess the purchase as this is a whole lot of powder to get through. I feel somewhat badly about indulging since I have SO many blushes to get through and this is about the size of of three MAC blushes (nearly 1 oz in size).
The formula is paraben and talc-free which is a plus if you're sensitive and also terribly aware of ingredients going on your face.
It's meant to be used as a blusher, bronzer, highlighter, and contour powder with graduating strips of color in various shades. Peach definitely dominates the shade selection but they also included bronze and beige shades.
You will be disappointed if you expect to get the quality of color you see in the pan. This provides a luminous glow on cheeks but lacks the pigmentation for vibrantly flushed cheeks. On super fair skin you'll probably have better success with it as a blush versus darker skin that will find it works best to highlight or to add a boost to your current cheek stain or powder blush.
The formula is super silky and blends easily. It does kick up a fair bit of dust as you swipe a brush across it, just a warning. I find it works best by swirling all the shades together. Trying to use them individually proves challenging in my opinion since the color strips aren't large enough to fit a brush into. The finish has a soft glow but nothing overly sparkly or glittery. You can build and go as heavy handed as you want here as the powder is so sheer it'll never appear overly done.
Wear time was a little iffy for me, it seemed to disappear into hour three, I think I got a better wear from the Hot Hues Bronzer than I did this.
Overall, it's a rather gorgeous little powder and quite a bang for your buck at this size. I admit, I knew that it wouldn't be terribly pigmented but was still a little disappointed that it didn't come across more vibrantly peachy on my cheeks….!

Former Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was named to replace Malky Mackay as Cardiff City coach as the Welsh team bids to avoid relegation from soccer's Premier League.
The Norwegian, who retired as a player in 2007 after scoring 126 goals in 366 appearances for United, joined the Bluebirds after watching the team's 2-0 loss at league leader Arsenal yesterday. Cardiff's 10th defeat in 20 league games this season leaves it in 17th place, one point above the three-team relegation zone.
"I've always dreamt of being a manager in the Premier League," Solskjaer said in a televised news conference at the club's stadium. "Cardiff City are ready to take the next step up, I hope I can help them."
According to Bloomberg Sports projections, Cardiff has a 38.6 per cent chance of being demoted.
Solskjaer, 40, joins from Norwegian club Molde, a team he led to two successive league titles, the first in the club's history. As a player he was known for his ability to influence games late in the match.
In 1999 he scored four goals in 12 minutes for United after coming on as a substitute in an 8-1 league win at Nottingham Forest. Later that year he netted an injury-time winner in the final of the Champions League, after coming on in the 81st minute, as United came from behind to beat Bayern Munich 2-1.
Solskjaer said he's on a "rolling" contract at Cardiff, rather than one with a fixed term. His first game in charge will be an F.A. Cup match at Newcastle in two days.

Stamford Youth Bridge Academy inspires the next generation of Bridge players. It works with schools and other organisations to provide young people with local opportunities to play the game and to learn the rules, respect and tactics involved. Links with the Ofsted Handbook are emphasised in the teaching. Members of Stamford Bridge Club and partner clubs support young players by acting as 'buddies'.
We have recently taken a group of 19 young people to the House of Lords to play Bridge with House Peers, including Baroness Hennig.

Music has a way of bringing us back to a certain moment in time, evoking memories, emotions and feelings from our past. Listening to certain songs can bring comfort in times of sadness, boost your mood, and just make you feel more positive and happy overall. For those with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, thanks to many recent studies, the power of music is more evident than ever.
This is due to the fact that listening to music takes little to no cognitive processing. Even in the later stages of Alzheimer's disease, a person can still engage in familiar music, particularly in rhythmic playing or singing.
Music therapy was defined by the Older Americans Act in 1992 as "the use of musical or rhythmic interventions specifically selected by a music therapist to accomplish the restoration, maintenance, or improvement of social or emotional functioning, mental processing, or physical health of an older individual."
As an alternative treatment for Alzheimer's, music therapy has been shown to not only reduce agitation and improve behavioral issues during the mid-to-late stages of dementia, but also provides a way to connect with these loved ones even after verbal communication has become difficult.
Music therapists have reported remarkable results when working with those with Alzheimer's. Hearing a personal favorite song allows some of these individuals to remember names of loved ones or their own names, become more social and engaged in their surroundings, and even start to speak again. Some of the main benefits of music therapy for Alzheimer's include an impact on:
If you or someone you know is affected by Alzheimer's disease or another dementia, join Concordia in September for our Coping with Alzheimer's Lecture Series. Presented by the Alzheimer's Association, this three-part series will provide basic information about Alzheimer's disease like risk factors, stages of the disease and treatment options, how to understand and respond to dementia-related behaviors, and legal and financial planning information.
Thanks to donations from residents and families, as well as a $2,500 grant from the Walmart Foundation, Concordia is able to include a Music and Memory program for our residents living with Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Based on research from the Music & Memory program, our activities coordinators work with both residents and their families to create a personalized music playlist based on each resident's music preferences. These songs are downloaded to an iPod given to the resident, along with their own set of headphones to help bring these residents back to life, enabling them to communicate and stay present in the moment.
Contact Concordia to learn more about our unique memory care program, designed to promote confidence and enhance the lives of our residents and their families.

A brief History of Leyton Swimming Club
Leyton swimming club was founded in 1911 as a water polo and swimming club. From passed down memories it seems the water polo club was successful in the 1910's, 20's and 30's and then swimming club successful in the 1930's 40's and 50's.
The latter half of the 1970's the club was swimming four times a week. Three sessions were at the Leyton Swimming pool, which was at Bakers Arms where Tesco now is. The other session was at Cathall Road pool which is where the club is still based and swims. The pool at Bakers Arms had a 40 yard big pool and a 20 yard small pool which were filled from a natural spring under the pool each spring. The water would come out green initially. The larger pool was always cold and it took a few months to get any warmer. The smaller pool was warmer and stayed open all year. At one session the swimmers trained so hard that they steamed up the small pool so that visibility was down to a metre ahead and above.
At this time Hope Monk taught learner to swim in the small pool and then they moved on to joining the club and the swimming sessions. Very like today. Hope Monks was awarded an MBE for her services to swimming and for being a lollypop lady for many years.
The committee was, just like it is today, made up of volunteers. In the early 1990's a new committee took charge but didn't last very long in post and the club was suddenly in danger of no longer existing. Volunteer parents stepped in to organise things and ensure that the club continued. Margaret Norris and Kath Green made sure the club survived at this time and into the future so that it is still here today for swimmers to enjoy. The club is still dependent on people willing to give up their time voluntary today. These includes coaches and committee members.
The club takes part in London Graded galas, East London Mini galas and the Essex League. Paul Norris has been involved in managing the gala teams since the early 1990's. The club has had a lot of success in the graded and mini leagues and over the years many swimmers have had the opportunity to represent the club and experience competing.
At the end of 2015 the club had won the London Graded gala a total of 23 times and the East London mini a total of 13 times.
In the Essex League the club moved up from the 5th division to the 1st division and competed in division 2 during 2015.
The club has also competed in Europe. In the past in France and in more recent years a yearly trip to compete against teams from several countries in Ronse in Belgium. A small team of swimmers make the trip over with their families and Leyton usually does well and members winning medals.
Historically the club colours were always blue and white. They changed to red and black in the 1990'. For the 2011 year special commemorative swimming hats were made in blue and white. These proved to be very popular and so the club colours were changed back to the traditional blue and white. In the past there was a club t-shirt with the swimmers designing the picture which over the years had a blue fish tail, a pair of feet sticking out of water and even a lion. Today we have club polo shirts and bags.

Earlier this week, Saugatuck attended the SAP Sapphire NOW conference in Orlando, Florida. We value coming to the conference each year as it, like several other that we attend, provides great signposts as to current state of business computing. This year more than 20,000 attended the event live, with thousands more accessing the keynotes remotely. In this Research Alert, we emphasize three key takeaway threads from the event: "Simplicity", "HANA Front and Center", and "Ariba: Key to SAP's Future."
Why is it Happening?
With many of the key technological foundations having already been laid, SAP is at an important juncture to begin to significantly monetize on the vision it has built over the past few years. We see the company pursuing that in the following ways:
Simplicity. Saugatuck reacted positively to CEO Bill McDermott's charismatic keynote and the subsequent follow-on sessions that emphasized the need to "simplify" the massive complexity that has often defined SAP systems, and enterprise IT in general. The move to provide FIORI for free is a good move in this direction, and should help accelerate the adoption of its new user experience / interface. And the continued move to the Cloud (across all lines of business) likewise helps customers in this regard.
But it is likewise important not to confuse "simplicity" with "easy to pull off." As McDermott emphasized, simplicity needs to apply not only to the look and feel / UI, but with the underlying application workflows / application stack, and in how it does business with customers and partners alike. Frankly, the user interface is the easiest of these to tackle. The good news is that SAP appears to be listening to its customers, as it takes action to simplify the massive array of offerings in its portfolio with its new "Simplified" line of solutions (e.g., "Simplified Finance" see below). While McDermott is no Martin Luther King, his "I have a bold vision for the future of business" (i.e., "simplicity) could potentially be an important inflection point for SAP if they are truly able to deliver the goods behind the well-intentioned and well-received messaging.
HANA Front and Center. While it has been clear that HANA is at the core of SAP's technology and product strategy for several years now, Board Chairman Hasso Plattner did a nice job reiterating this in his day 2 Keynote, including how SAP has been managing the "Innovators Dilemma" paradigm for the past several years. We won't review all of that here nor all of the investments that it has been making to power everything via HANA. This has not been trivial. In fact, some may consider SAPs build-it-they-will come investments "betting the ranch" in these regards.
What was fascinating to us is how SAP is completely rethinking how application logic will get applied as it moves toward with model-driven solutions that directly engage with transactional-level data / records in the new "Simplified" solution versions that it is bringing to market. At Sapphire Now, SAP unveiled Simplified Finance, a new offering that takes advantage of this new design point. It leverages the power of its in-memory database structure to not only process traditional financial use-cases extremely quickly, but provides the opportunity for extensive and sophisticated big-data predictive analytics against the non-aggregated raw data (as well as a variety of externally sourced structured and unstructured data). This is powerful stuff if SAP can execute against the vision, and if it can provide a not-too-painful transition strategy for customers to get from where they are today to where SAP wants to take them. In this sense, we now have a deeper appreciation of the role that HANA is playing in its technology and product strategy, and why it has moved so rapidly to re-platform all of its solutions on HANA. We will be tracking these innovations closely, as this likewise is not a trivial thing to pull off. For SAP to succeed in a big way, however, it needs to do much better at convincing customers of its vision as the 3,500+ customers they cited that are using HANA (600 reportedly now live) are a drop in bucket to its full installed base.
Ariba: Key to SAPs Future. As detailed in a recent Research Alert (after we attended Ariba LIVE), SAP is realizing that it has a tiger by the tail with significant upside if it continues to manage the acquisition squarely. While the new 30-day free trial is interesting, Saugatuck found the new eBay partnership quite a coup, as it opens up its network to other networks, and provides a broader portfolio of non-catalogue "spot" spending with which to manage. We would anticipate other networks to be added as well over time. Combining this direction with Ariba Pay (announced more than a year ago), where SAP will now be able to take a small slice of all transactions (or in the case of eBay, share PayPal transactional fees) and one can quickly grasp the enormity of the revenue upside potential that lies ahead of SAP / Ariba. We can only imagine that the cash registers must be ringing in the minds of senior SAP leadership behind its Networked Economy go-to-market strategy.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 17142
no printing even after fixes recommended by RedHat
Last modified: 2008-05-01 11:37:58 EDT
* upgraded from 5.2 to 6.1
* no printing, parallel ports unknown
* went to RedHat tech support
* added to /etc/conf/modules: alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
* parallel port /dev/lp0 is recognized
* cat file.txt > /dev/lp0 prints the text file
* lpr file.txt nothing
* lpc no daemon running
* downloaded latest lpr package, installed
* lpr file.txt makes printer to spit few empty pages.
* printtool - selected printer,
- test ASCII
- prints an empty page
Which printer are you using? What are your BIOS settings for the
parallel port?
Hi bero,
I made some progress. It turns out that I did not upgrade ghostscript.
After the upgrade to ghostscript 5.10 here is what happens:
* printtool
* test ; ASCII
* printer prints this
" If this is all you see, try enabling 'LF->CR/LF' translation in printtool..."
* Delete printer
* Add printer - but nowhere do I see anything where I could add
the above translation. ???
How do I do this?
By the way, my printer is HP DeskJet 600C, printing to /dev/lp0.
Thanks for help,
Vit Novak
All works. In printtool I selected the printer driver for HP Jet 600C.
If its working on your end, I am going to resolve it.
Open the bug back up if something else comes up.

Drumroll, please....
I was contacted by Liz from the lovely state of Utah this morning. She wants to make some skirts in the larger sizes so that brings us to the grand total of...
I don't know which size and how many, so I'll just count it as one skirt and put it in the grand total, but not the size chart. Thank you so much, Liz! So....where do we go from here?
This is what I'll be tracking from here on out. I will take and post pics of the skirts as they arrive at my home. If you wish to have a link to your blog or website, please include that in your package. And don't forget to name your skirt for the tags! :) I will keep a running count of Skirts Received vs. Skirts Promised to help us stay on track with actually having the skirts finished and ready to ship by August 1st.
Also, please feel free to continue to join in, if you wish. I don't want to leave anyone out who wants to participate. And we do have a few sizes that don't have 10 skirts simply because I have extras of some sizes and some skirts were promised, but no sizes designated. I intend to continue sewing all the way up to August. I want to have a little extra margin just in case some skirt donors were unable to complete their donations. And I'd love to have some extras for the new orphans that will be arriving when more dorms are built.
There are no words to express how much I appreciate each and everyone of you. This project just got away from me...in a good way. I had fully intended to sew 100 Skirts. However, the power of community, even a "virtual" one, had a different idea. I like it this way even better. A wonderful statement of good will and compassion. Ya'll are awesome!
There will be a MAJOR giveaway in honor of reaching our goal. I will be putting together a nice big goodie box soon as well as some smaller prizes. Stay tuned for your opportunity to win!
Hugs and Kisses

Yahooooooo! What an awesome display of people coming together to accomplish a very large task. It has been an encouragement to me and I would like to learn to sew a little better so that I could help out in the future. Thanks for the inspiration, Charity!
Wayyyy Cooool!!!! That is just wonderful! Love to see God bringing it all together!

At all times the parent or guardian is responsible for the care and supervision of the child, not the Library or any of the Library staff members. If a parent or guardian decides to leave a child unattended in the Library, the following guidelines must be met:
Adopted July, 2014
Computer and Internet Acceptable Use Policy
Kemmerer Library Harding Township provides computers that may be used by its patrons.
Computer and Internet service is made available in recognition of the Library's role as a community center for education and information. The Internet allows Library users to access information beyond the confines of the collection located in the Library.
[ More ]
[ Less ]
Access to the Internet and Microsoft's Office software is available on public computers located in the Adult and Children's Rooms. Unfiltered wireless Internet connectivity without printing capabilities is also offered in most areas of the building for users with their own wireless enabled laptops and devices.
All users of the Library's Internet service (whether with your own device or the Library's computer) are expected to follow the Code of Conduct Policy, other Library policies as well as those outlined below.
Library Computer & Internet Rules
Child Safety on the Internet
The Library affirms the right and responsibility of parents, caretakers or guardians to guide, determine and monitor their children's use of the Internet but the Library's policies for computer and internet use apply at all times.
Parents, caretakers and guardians should be aware that children who use the Internet unsupervised may be exposed to inappropriate or disturbing information and images.
Please read the Unattended Children Policy for further guidance.
Library Assistance
Time permitting, Library staff is available to assist a patron in his/her use of the computer, software or Internet. Staff will try to answer specific questions about the Internet and offer suggestions for effective searching.
Staff can also provide information about Internet training opportunities and Internet books and manuals. However, each user is responsible for his or her own searches on the Internet.
Use of the Library's computers is free; however, there is a charge for printing and other materials supplied by the Kemmerer Library Harding Township.
Users agree not to incur any costs for the Library through their use of the Internet service. Any costs incurred will be the users' responsibility and the Library will pursue the collection thereof.

American Apparel Inc. is readying to declare bankruptcy again, according to reports. The clothing company has gone through financial deficit, plummeting sales and a separation with founder Dov Charney.
The Los Angeles-based clothing retailer is expected to file a bankruptcy petition within the next few weeks, based on reports. It reportedly intends to start the sale process of the company by letting it cancel leases and close some of its retail operations. Nevertheless, the plan has yet to be finalized and could change since the holiday season is fast approaching.
The company just left from bankruptcy protection in February, when its previous bondholders – headed by Monarch Alternative Capital — assumed the business. Its plan to save itself by returning to its s roots and concentrates on basic items like skirts and t-shirts was not successful, according reports. American Apparel also has retained restructuring advisory firm Berkeley Research Group for help, sources say.
There has been no announcement from Monarch about any plans to file for bankruptcy.
The recent years have been endemic with bankruptcies in the retail industry, which include Sports Authority, Aeropostale and Quiksilver Inc. The brand's downward spiral is mainly caused by a dramatic shift in spending towards entertainment, technology and experiences. Consumers do not spend as much on clothing anymore.
The company is currently dealing with turnover of management. In September, Chief Executive Officer Paula Schneider resigned, and her position was assumed by former acquisitions and mergers attorney Chelsea Grayson. Schneider is now connected to DG Premium Brands as the new CEO.
Charney, founder and CEO of American Apparel, was booted out two years ago over allegations of misconduct. He fought hard to take back the business, but he failed. The company filed for bankruptcy in October 2015.
According to reports, Iconix Brand Group Inc. and Brand licensors Authentic Brands Group LLC want to buy American Apparel. The negotiations of purchase could set in motion another bankruptcy.

A measure aimed at preventing groups like Westboro Baptist Church from protesting at funerals advanced in the North Carolina state legislature Wednesday and is headed for Gov. Pat McCrory's (R) desk to be signed into law.
The "Respect Our Fallen Heroes" bill, which expands on a 2006 law limiting when and where picketers can demonstrate at funerals, would require groups like Westboro to vacate the funeral area for at least two hours before and after a ceremony, and to stay at least 500 feet away during the funeral. The measure would also enforce stricter punishments for those who break the law.
The North Carolina state Senate unanimously passed the bill on Wednesday, two weeks after the state House voted 118-0 to advance the measure. According to WRAL, McCrory's staff said Wednesday that the governor supports the bill.
"It's always very, very difficult for the families of the deceased soldier to deal with that reality and to get through, to be able to mourn their loved one who's no longer with us," state Rep. John Szoka, the bill's lead sponsor, said earlier this month. "And these groups who like to interject themselves into that process, to make some political statement - that's just abhorrent to me. I think families should be left alone to get through the process of honoring the fallen soldier."
The Topeka-based Westboro Baptist Church is infamous for its anti-gay protests at funerals and other events across the country. The group frequently targets military funerals, claiming that American deaths in combat are God's punishment for the United States' tolerance of homosexuality. But as the group's notoriety has expanded, so have the legal efforts aimed at curbing its controversial protests.
Last August, President Obama signed the Honoring America's Veterans Act into law. The legislation put tougher restrictions on protests at military funerals, countering a 2011 Supreme Court ruling that found that Westboro's efforts were protected by the First Amendment.
And last week, a measure similar to the one passed in North Carolina advanced in the Florida legislature. Lawmakers expect the bill to pass both chambers.

U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy told a group of local business leaders on Wednesday that the American people have the ability to end the gridlock on Capitol Hill.
U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy told a group of local business leaders on Wednesday that the American people have the ability to end the gridlock on Capitol Hill.
Speaking before a crowd at the Spartanburg County downtown headquarters library for a special legislative event hosted by the Spartanburg Area Chamber of Commerce, Gowdy said debate elevated by "sincerity, credibility and facts" will lead to real solutions.
"(Partisanship) will stop when you demand it stops," Gowdy said. "You (the American people) are the referee. We (politicians) will raise our rhetoric when you make us."
Gowdy, who is back from Washington D.C. this week while the House is out of session, discussed several challenges facing Congress, including the U.S. government's looming "fiscal cliff."
The term describes the budget policy changes that will kick in on Jan. 1, including $1 trillion automatic spending cuts, the expiration of payroll tax cuts and the beginning of new taxes associated with President Barack Obama's new health care law. If Congress does nothing, the experts say the U.S. will go over the fiscal cliff.
Gowdy said the issue is a replay of Congress' failure to come to a decision on a bipartisan federal deficit reduction plan.
"We love sequels," Gowdy said. "The only difference is that it's worse this time because instead of just talking about raising taxes, we're talking about raising marginal rates. Essentially, we have given up on the spending cap."
Gowdy introduced figures from 2011 that showed the government outspent its revenue by $1.3 trillion. He said the country can tackle its more than $16 trillion debt through bipartisan efforts that allow leaders to bring their ideas to the table without being "demagogued."
"We survived a civil war, civil rights and 9/11 … We can get through this," Gowdy said. "The question is: how do we close the deficit and reduce debt without pitting one group against another … We're too polarized. When we demagogue each other solely for political gain, then we're finished."
Gowdy said he believes the national media is fueling conflict between the country's two main parties.
"We, Republicans and Democrats, are as kind and polite to each other as you could possibly be. That changes the moment the cameras come on," Gowdy said.
"There are some extremely bright and intelligent people out there (in Washington)," Gowdy said. "But you'll never see them on TV because they're not quippy."
The audience appeared to be pleased with Gowdy's remarks. In particular, a comment where he noted that many Americans during this election season are asking "what's best for me?" Rather than focusing on "I," Gowdy suggested that it might be better to ask what's best for everyone.
"Why can't we have someone at the national level speak to us this plainly?" said Susan Lawson, spokeswoman for Comfort Keepers in-home senior care of Spartanburg. "I can't imagine how hard it must be to get things done up there (in Washington)."
The Spartanburg Chamber regularly holds legislative events to help build relationships between local business leaders and state and national officials. A few years ago, Republican Sen. Jim DeMint made an appearance, speaking about the economy and energy independence.
David Cordeau, president and CEO of the Spartanburg Chamber, said the stakes are even higher this time around.
"When you've got business people who aren't happy, scared and uncertain about what truly is going on, that's got a good environment to grow on," Cordeau said. "The concerns are so great. People don't have any fingernails left because they've bitten them off. It's wonderful to have leaders who make themselves available. It's not about party lines, but about what's best for the country."
Gowdy, the former 7th Circuit solicitor, was elected in 2010. He will head back to Washington on Monday when the House reconvenes.

Consider using your blog if you are looking for a way to increase your free traffic to your site. Your blog could be a powerful tool that you are under utilizing.
What is Great Content?
When it comes to organic search traffic, seo still remains king. Your niche will have some popular search terms within it. The more of those you include in your blog the more organic the leads to your blog will be. If you include too much text on the main page of your blog, it can be more harmful than good.
Use your blog to write about your niche. It doesn't matter what the niche is, make sure to find out what keywords and keyword phrases are trending in that industry or niche, and then make sure that they are included in your blog posts.
You will want to make sure that your blog has a link back to your website that is highly visible. The blog is going to help to increase the visibility of your website and the amount of traffic that your website gets.
Blogs are a form of social marketing. They are often far less formal than your site and share information about your niche whether that is the postings of an expert, opinions about a product/service, information about products or just about anything else that is relevant to your niche. It allows visitors to leave comments and to share your blog posts through other social media channels. Don't forget you are going to need a great website template.
If the timer below is running there's a sale, click on the link on the Memo
That means you need to give your blog the correct attention. Everything you post should be of quality and it should engage the reader. Doing so means your visitors will return and they will want to share your blog with others that they know. In turn, the number of people that jump from your blog to your website should also increase over time.
Content marketing through blogging or guest posts is the fastest way to build great traffic when it comes to increasing organic search. Content marketing is a quality game and not a quantity game. If you have horrible content, people won't bother reading it or sharing it, which is basically the entire point of building a company blog. When we write content, we constantly ask ourselves if I would take ten minutes out of my day to read it and if I 'd share it with others. You really need to look at your content strategy again if you wouldn't do either of those things.
Your blog is an excellent gateway for you to enjoy an increase in traffic on your site, so why not put it to work today?

Post subject: High-DPI image support
the past three years
I've been publishing my comics in both standard (100 dpi) and "Retina" (200dpi) resolution, and decided to just check to see how much of an impact it has in general.
Even with my small viewer base, about 1 in 4 viewers are on a high-DPI display.
Also, for me there's a clear difference between standard and high-DPI comics in terms of how sharp they look - and notably, I started doing this because my comics looked muddy and fuzzy compared to the rest of the page and I got tired of that. If you're on a high-DPI screen (such as a modern MacBook or a system with a 4K display) try opening these two pages in separate tabs and flip between them:
Pretty clear difference, right? (At least there is to me.)
Anyway: if you want to set up high-DPI comics on your site, that depends a lot on the CMS you're using. My CMS is an ungodly assemblage of Movable Type and some custom PHP and so it probably isn't that helpful for others to know how I set it up in mine, but if someone who is so inclined to modify any of the common comic CMSes to support it, here's what I do:
1. I save the image at its native resolution (2880x1440 in my comics' case)
2. I have a script convert it to the two resolutions (100dpi = 960x480 at 90% quality, 200dpi = 1920x960 at 60% quality), with filenames like comicfilename.jpg and comicfilename.HIDPI.jpg
3. When I post a comic, I post it as comicfilename.jpg, and some of the custom junk in my CMS detects that comicfilename.HIDPI.jpg exists and converts the IMG tag to:
<img src="comicfilename.jpg" srcset="comicfilename.jpg 1x, comicfilename.HIDPI.jpg 2x" width=960 height=480>
Probably the way that one would do this in, say, WordPress is to have whatever plugin you use for displaying comics set out two output resolutions, one double the other, and rewrite the IMG tag accordingly. I know very little about WordPress, ComicPress, Easel, etc. so I'm just hoping this will be useful information for others who are more involved with that software.
If you're HTML-savvy but haven't seen the srcset attribute before, read up about it
over on the W3C HTML standard
. And stop making your comics look cruddy on high-density displays!

Fancy! It's a bit over my low-pixel-density head (I do have a cookie-saved option readers can select to view the comics at a larger resolution, but that's pretty basic compared to what this sounds like : o); my low-density Firefox is telling me that the HIDPI version of the comic on your sample page (I don't have a hi dpi display so I had to punch in the image filename manually following the ".HIDPI." naming convention you described, so maybe this is all invalid anyhow) is in fact at what you call your native resolution, and not the 1080p size you say your script converts it to:
Type: JPEG Image
Size: 274.47 KB (281,059 bytes)
Dimensions: 2,880px × 1,440px
So maybe that file didn't get converted to the size you wanted? But I guess on my old monitor I can't actually see this stuff the way it was meant to be seen : o

Ah, that one was probably back when I was putting my full-resolution images online for the HIDPI variant and I never went back and fixed those. The more recent strips are 1920x960.
It doesn't really matter in terms of quality since the browsers which support srcset also properly downsample images that are too large. On that note, it used to be that you wanted your images to be the exact same size as they were going to be displayed, but these days browsers are good at resampling images and so it's okay for there to be a resolution mismatch (but starting with a higher resolution image is always better).
