Good morning and welcome to the Sprout, where your host is very happy it's Friday and National Praline Day.
Here's today's agriculture news:
The Lead:
It's a referendum that will go down in history. The United Kingdom has voted 52 per cent in favour of leaving the European Union – a move likely to have a significant impact on farmers globally.
Here in Canada, questions are swirling about the fate of the yet-to-be ratified Comprehensive Economic Trade Agreement (CETA) now that one of the major players in the EU has voted to leave. Trade Minister Chrystia Freeland had said she expected the deal could be ratified as early as 2017, but that timeline is now under scrutiny.
Abroad, the vote has led to great uncertainty for UK farmers who have relied of the EU for subsidies and unfettered market access for more than 40 years. Farmers Weekly has that story. Meanwhile, some activists are warning Britain could end up with "a disastrous" version of TTIP, a trade agreement with the United States. And, Scientific American looks at what Brexit means for the Paris Climate Agreement.
The vote has also triggered market turmoil, with Prime Minister David Cameron announcing he will be resigning before October. In a statement Friday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau attempted to reassure Canadians, saying Canada can weather the global economic shocks, despite a slumping loonie.
In Canada:
One week ahead of what would have been a scheduled July 1st drop in the number of temporary foreign workers Canadian businesses can employ at any given time, the Trudeau government says it is revoking the new cap — which agriculture producers in particular had lobbied against — and freezing TFW hires at current levels. iPolitics has the details.
The Saskatchewan government says it will repeal an outdated horned cattle penalty. As The Western Producer reports, the legislation – introduced in 1939 – penalized producers who sent horned cattle to market. The provincial government is now looking to industry for an alternative solution.
Alberta has a gopher problem. The little critters are wreaking havoc on crops across parts of the province. Alberta Agriculture said canola crops have been hardest hit. CNS Canada has the story.
And, food in Nunavut continues to be expensive. New statistics from the territory show the cost of food is three times more than the national average. CBC News explains.
Argentina and Monsanto have reached an agreement over grain inspections and royalties. As The Buenos Aries Herald reports, the Argentinian government says it will now take over the inspections through the INASE national seed institute, and carry out the verification that Monsanto used to handle.
American senators have reached an agreement on GMO labelling one week before a new law on the subject takes effect in Vermont. As PBS News explains, the deal requires the nationwide labeling of genetically modified organisms, or GMOs, in packaged foods for the first time. However, the rules are more lenient than Vermont's law by allowing food companies to use a text label, a symbol or electronic label accessed by smartphone. Under Vermont's pending law, companies would require items be labeled "produced with genetic engineering."

That's your agriculture news for this week. Have a marvellous weekend and we'll see you Monday.

21xx Autolite/Motorcraft carb upgrade
Introduction The 1980 through 1988 AMC cars and trucks with the 258 engine came with the Carter BBD 2v carb. Two versions of this carb were made for six cylinder engines, feedback(computer controlled)and non feedback. The performance of this carb can be described as lackluster at best! The most common upgrade is to the Autolite/Motorcraft 2100 series(incl 2150). We'll cover a step by step upgrade in this section but before we start I'll give a brief comparison between the two carbs including what to look for in your new carb.
Carter BBD 6 cylinder feedback/non feedback 280 cfm
Autolite/Motocraft 2100 Measuring the base butterfly opening .98 = 190 1.01 = 240 1.02 = 245 1.08 = 287 1.14 = 300 1.21 = 351 1.23 = 356 1.33 = 424
The most common 2100/2150 in the junk yards is the 1.21, used on 302 through 390 v8 engines including 360s in the wagoneer to the end of the run in 92(actually 91). Some 2100 swaps may be considered failures due to drivability issues. Mainly because of over carbbing some of the drivability issues with the BBD will show up in the 2100, keep in mind bigger is not always better ESPECIALLY in a relatively stock engine. When choosing a carb be sure to get one that has the brake booster port on the rear. Older versions for cars AND trucks may not have it.

Welcome! There is nothing like a good love story. And telling part of that love story is a tremendous privilege. I love serving couples on their wedding day. I love emotional images that tell stories. I love my husband and four children. I love living way out in the country, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I love producing images that are sweet and timeless.
Please let me know how I can help you!

CHICAGO - Once again, a Bears team well under .500 has left everyone with plenty to talk about.
A loss to the Packers - and a number of decision made during the game - have caused plenty of people to question what the Bears were doing last Sunday at Soldier Field.
That has continued this entire week as the Bears now head to a game against the Lions at home with a 3-6 record, with the optimism of a few weeks ago starting to fade fast.
Shawn Sierra of The Rewind Sports 60 discussed that on Sports Feed Wednesday with Jarrett Payton. The host discussed everything from the team's offense under Mitchell Trubisky to their defense without Danny Trevathan.
Watch the entire segment in the video above or below.

Kiss the "no fly zone" goodbye, say sayonara to the mythical greatness of the Michigan State defense. In 2014, the Spartans supposed strength has become its greatest liability, something that was showcased over the last two Saturdays against the state of Indiana.
Let's set the scene over the past few weeks for you — Purdue gives the ball to quarterback Austin Appleby for his first collegiate start by choice, while Indiana goes to 3rd string Zander Diamont for his first start as a replacement for the injured Nate Sudfeld.
Easy peasy, Michigan State should have a field day with these offenses and cruise to victory, right?
In the words of one Lee Corso…"not so fast my friend."
Rather than taking advantage of two first-time starters, the last two weeks have been all about Michigan State's offense showing up where its defense couldn't for the most part.
Purdue put up 31, yes THIRTY-ONE, points on a Michigan State defense that came in allowing a respectable 20.6 points per game (a far cry from the 13.2 points per game the 2013 defense allowed). The Boilermakers came in to that contest in Week 7 averaging 12 points against the two good defenses it faced (Notre Dame and Iowa).
At the very least one would expect MSU to find a way to duplicate what ND and Iowa can do on the defensive side of the ball. Instead, Michigan State's defense made Austin Appleby look like he's been the starter forever. Appleby went 24-of-37 for 211 yards and one touchdown, while the running game went hog-wild on Michigan State as well.
The Boilermakers' Akeem Hunt managed a very un-MSU-like 96 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.
All of that just one year after getting blanked 14-0 by the Spartans at home in West Lafayette, Ind.
Fast forward to this week and it was another running back doing work against what was supposed to be a stout Spartans front seven. Indiana's Tevin Coleman wasn't able to get a lot of carries, but he made the most of his 15 carries, gaining 132 yards for an 8.8 per carry average.
As a team the Hoosiers ran for over 200 yards and averaged nearly 7 yards a carry on the Spartans, and again that's something that was a rarity last season. Things weren't looking good early, but a butt chewing came after the second Hoosiers TD of the first half.
Narduzzi's D was not helped by the offense but they also missed some big opportunities. Difference? D is getting chewed out BAD. Offense?
— Hondo Carpenter (@HondoCarpenter) October 18, 2014
Eventually the Spartan defense figured some things out thanks to that butt chewing, but don't let the 49-17 scoreline fool you. A lot had to do with the quarterback Zander Diamont
If the last two games don't do it for you, how about the season stat comparison between last season and this one:
[ws_table id="31″]
Given those numbers, Michigan State is lucky to have the offense it has or 2014 could be a very eerie reminder of the 2012 season to say the least.
With arguably the two biggest games for the Michigan State fans and season coming up (Michigan and Ohio State), it's the defense that is going to tell the story of the Spartans playoff hopes.
Play as aggressive as they did in the second half against Indiana and it could be trouble for opposing offenses, but for now teams aren't (and shouldn't be) afraid of the good 'ol Spartan Dawgs.

If people want to wear Native American fashions in a respectful manner, we have provided the perfect way to do it.
(PRWEB) July 08, 2016
2016 has seen the rise of Native American fashion and culture. From learning to respect ancient artifacts to the fashion industry opening up about the Native American names behind their latest designs, 2016 truly has been incredible for this community. NativeAmericanJewelry.com comments, however, that there is still one aspect that is a bit "unsatisfactory". Summertime is known as the season of festivals because many of the country's biggest and best festivals are starting.
The team at NativeAmericanJewelry.com, a proud supporter of the Native American community and provider of Native artisan made jewelry, comments that the appropriation of the younger generation wearing headdresses, feathers, Native patterns, is a little unsavory.
A spokesman for the company, Steven Onida commented on the matter, "Cultural appropriation is something that we have continued to fight against year after year, we understand that the younger generations being interested in Native styles is a great start, but there is definitely a right and wrong way to do it and if people want to wear Native American fashions in a respectful manner, we have provided the perfect way to do it."
In response to the upcoming festival season, NativeAmericanJewelry.com has provided their guests and new visitors with a more appropriate way to incorporate Native American fashions.
The Right Native Fashion to Wear for Festival Season
Usually when people go to festivals, they want to stand out. Matching sets of more extravagant pieces, such as squash blossom necklaces and earrings by our Native American artists is a great way to look great and support the community at the same time.
Another way that people can set themselves apart this year is with traditional Native American bolo ties. This style has been a facet of the fashion industry and is a great way to honor Native American traditions and keep that Native chic style that's popular around festival time.
Another piece that is popular in the Southwest region that people can wear is turquoise belt buckles. These pieces incorporate classic Native American silverwork and stone setting and stone setting that help complete the style.
Onida and his team at NativeAmericanJewelry.com hope to see more cultural appreciation in fashion this year.

Effective July 12, 2017, the New York State Court of Appeals amended its Rules for the Licensing of Legal Consultants (Part 521).
The amendment adds a requirement for all individuals licensed in New York as foreign legal consultants to register with the Office of Court Administration. The Rules of the Chief Administrator (Part 118.3) were also amended, effective January 1, 2018, to implement the procedures for the biennial registration of foreign legal consultants in New York.
Failure to register is deemed professional misconduct under Part 521.5. Individuals who were licensed as foreign legal consultants and subsequently admitted to the New York bar are not subject to Part 521's registration requirement.
Foreign Legal Consultants, while not admitted to practice law in New York, may render advice or provide legal services in New York only for matters concerning the law of the foreign country in which they are admitted to practice. The complete rule, including definitions of the scope of legal services which may be performed by licensed foreign legal consultants, is available at: https://www.nycourts.gov/ctapps/521rules10.htm
Application to be licensed as a foreign legal consultant must be filed with the clerk of the Appellate Division of Supreme Court in which he or she resides or intends to practice. Please contact the court directly for complete instructions:
Biennial Registration
If the Appellate Division licenses a candidate as a foreign legal consultant, the candidate will receive further instructions by mail on how to register with the Office of Court Administration (OCA) as required pursuant Part 118.3. Foreign legal consultants must renew their registration online on a biennial basis with OCA, which maintains a database of registered foreign legal consultants.
Any foreign legal consultant previously licensed by an Appellate Division who has not yet registered with OCA must contact the Attorney Registration Unit to request the correct form. Please email the office at: firstname.lastname@example.com or call 212-428-2800.
At this time, foreign legal consultant applicants are not assessed application or registration fees, nor are they required to complete New York State Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits.

Bayer denies takeover rumors
FRANKFURT, Germany Reports of Bayer's imminent takeover appear greatly exaggerated.
The company's chief executive officer told a German newspaper that it would not be taken over, amid rumors last week that Pfizer sought to acquire it. But Bayer has a number of drugs in its research pipeline, while many of Pfizer's blockbuster drugs will soon go off patent, facing competition from generic drug makers.
Retail clinic care professionals can help patients avoid sports injuries
BETHESDA, Md. The 2008-2009 football season is gearing up so those working within retail-based health clinics should not only watch for more sports injuries but also help patients protect themselves by offering preventative tips.
According to the American Podiatric Medical Association, both professional and amateur athletes are at an extremely high risk for injuring their lower limbs during play.
"Stress fractures of the foot, ankle sprains and ligament injuries are all, unfortunately, quite common in popular fall sports such as football," stated David Davidson, APMA member and podiatric medical consultant for the Buffalo Bills of the NFL. "From maintaining proper conditioning to wearing sport-specific footwear, athletes can function at peak performance much more often when constantly maintaining high levels of foot care safety."
Tips to help avoid sprains, fractures and turf toe include:
- To help avoid sprains take part in proper warm-up exercises before and after home workouts, practice and games. Spend five to 10 minutes stretching, holding and relaxing muscles.
- To help avoid fractures look for sport-specific footwear that contains extra padding in cleated shoes, which helps to prevent stress fractures—incomplete fractures in bones are typically caused by overuse.
- To help avoid turf toe wear a stiffer shoe so prevent aggravating the injury further. Customized foot orthotics may also be worn during play to protect against turf toe.
Teen smokers reject nicotine nasal spray
NEW YORK A study published in the journal Pediatrics suggests that teenagers are not more likely to quit smoking if they use nicotine nasal spray.
Teenagers using the spray, which usually works in adults, complained of side effects such as burning in the nostrils, foul smells and others and stopped using it altogether or didn't use it often enough.
Other treatments often didn't work either. Nicotine patches, for example, gave doses too large, leading to jumpiness and nightmares, but doses still didn't relieve nicotine cravings.
The study involved 40 teenagers aged 15 to 18 who smoked at least five cigarettes a day over the previous six months. The teenagers were divided into groups who received eight weeks of counseling, six weeks of the spray or a combination of the two treatments. The researchers found no difference between the groups that received the counseling only and the counseling plus the spray. Among those who received the spray only, 57 percent stopped after a week.

Unfortunately, most people don't realize there are two ways we can avoid commitment: Actively or Passively.
- We actively avoid commitment by making it clear or in some way obvious to others that we are disinterested and/or are conflicted about commitment.
- We passively avoid commitment by pursuing unavailable partners, impossible circumstances and by pushing or waiting for conflicted and/or disinterested partners to make a commitment.
Most of us are familiar with the ways people actively avoid commitment, but that's not the case with passive commitment avoidance. Here's an important rule of thumb to always remember in regard to relationships: If you have one partner in a relationship who is conflicted and/or uncommitted, you always have two. No exceptions.
Marital limbo is never the result of one partner's behavior in the relationship – it's always the result of the choices that each partner in the relationship is making independently.

CMS to give Congress proposal for restricting Medicaid funding
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services will attempt to give Congress a legislative proposal by Wednesday for limiting intergovernmental transfers. CMS has complained that states have improperly used the transfers to draw extra matching Medicaid funding from federal sources.
Dennis Smith, director of CMS' Center for Medicaid and State Operations, said certain restrictions could save Medicaid about $23 billion over 10 years. Providers and states, however, have decried any attempt to tighten the funding noose, especially on an expedited basis.
Energy and Commerce Chairman Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX) held out a ray of hope, saying it might not be necessary to cut Medicaid funding if the conference budget resolution excludes the House instructions telling his committee to find $2.2 billion in savings in for fiscal 2005 through 2009.
The House was expected to recess last week until April 20 without reaching an agreement with the Senate on a final budget resolution.

Ship Car To Uruguay
Ship Your Car To Or From Uruguay
Typical Shipping Prices – How Much Does It Cost?
- Transporting a car to Uruguay from the U.S. will usually cost from $2,100 to $4,600.
- Smaller vehicles and standard sized cars that fit into a shipping container are the cheapest to transport, while others may cost slightly more.
There are some basic questions you have to answer and some basic decisions to make about shipping your vehicle to Uruguay before you get to the rules and regulations concerning international shipping. Your shipping agent should be able to help you a great deal with the fine points about shipping, so finding a knowledgeable and experienced shipper will be one of your first priorities.
It should be a company very familiar with all aspects of importing vehicles into Uruguay, because overlooking some small detail can easily result in your vehicle being tied up at port for days or even weeks.
To some extent, your shipper will need to be a company that has a presence near your geographic location. For one thing, if you need to have the vehicle picked up for delivery to the destination port, you won't want that pickup to be a cross-country effort. Even if you drive it to port yourself, you won't want a huge drive involved. Also, whichever port in the U.S. is your departure port, your shipper must have an operation there.
Next you'll need to decide about a shipping method, and the two basic factors involved with methods are cost and protection. Shipping by the container method costs more than other methods because it affords greater protection for your vehicle. Either a 20-ft or a 40-ft container will be used to transport your vehicle overseas, and during transit it will be protected from weather and any other ship-board hazards.
The other shipping method is known as Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO), and involves lashing your car securely to one of the decks of the ship in an unprotected mode. The name comes from the fact that the vehicle will be driven on and off the ship under its own power. For this reason, it must be supplied with ¼ tank of gas for the trip (but no more than that), and it must have no other personal items inside the car.

Uruguayan Restrictions
The country of Uruguay does not allow used cars to be imported if you are not an Uruguayan citizen. Citizens of the country are allowed to import used cars if they have been abroad for at least three years and the vehicle has been registered in the owner's name for that period of time. Even after satisfying these requirements, the used car owner must apply to the Ministry of Finance for import authorization, and then it will still have to clear customs.
Restrictions on new cars are not quite so stringent, although new cars imported into the country will be levied with a duty at whichever port is the port of entry. For any questions, you might have about your personal vehicle, contact the Uruguayan Embassy in the U.S.
Required Documents For Shipping A Vehicle To Uruguay
- Passport
- Purchase invoice
- Ocean bill of lading
- Proof of freight insurance
- Authorization from Ministry of Economy & Finance
Departure Requirements
Before your car will be allowed to leave the country, you must demonstrate that it is eligible for shipping abroad. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency will require that you provide a title for the vehicle that is clear of any liens, unless the lienholder has given you written authorization to export the vehicle.

You will also have to prove ownership of the vehicle by providing a bill of sale with your name on it as the purchaser. Beyond this, you'll also need the car's registration and your driver license to be cleared from the U.S. Make sure you arrange for this clearance well ahead of any planned shipping date, just in case there are any hang-ups with the process.

What's Your Story
Written by Endurance NWeke THE CURATOR OF COOL
So much of who we are can be told in our life story-our ongoing personal narrative filled with hurdling mountaintops; choosing the correct path when faced with insurmountable forks in the road. It's in this journey where we continue to learn about who we are, what we're capable of, and the talents we possess.
Who we are isn't defined by one specific thing. On the contrary, our very essence is captured in our creativity, imagination, and where our passions lie. Most of us work a 9-5, but let's be honest with ourselves for a moment. Do our true selves manifest in that cubicle, desk, or warehouse? Is our essence captured at the daily tasks we seek to complete at work… do we really have time to pursue our passions?

It is with a sad heart that I announce that Azure Maris, Azure Lights and Shamrocks of Stone have been discontinued.
The publisher, Ambassador International, is undergoing some changes, and in order to cut their inventory, my books, which have under-performed, have been axed.
Now, I can add discontinued author to the list of things I've accomplished. While authors want their books to be the next bestseller, few of us make it that far. I haven't found the right book yet or the right field. This doesn't mean I will stop writing. Oh no. Those of you who have purchased and read both series have encouraged me beyond measure. The Lord has shown me, through all of you, that writing is a gift He's given me.
In the closing of this chapter, I'm encouraged to leave behind the world of Christian fiction. While there are many out there who love and support Christian fiction, I have found that this is not the genre for me or my novels. The next path will prove interesting, filled with its own nightmares and dreams. I look forward to traveling this new road as, I feel, it will provide me with opportunity to explore elements which I am unable to pursue within the Christian market.
As I progress with finishing new novels, submitting short stories, and whatever else comes along the way, I will let you all know either through the Bridgette ni Brian website or Bridgette ni Brian Facebook page. Please like the Facebook page to stay-up-to-date with the daily activities.
Until then - the best of luck to all of us.
***As a side note, tomorrow's scheduled short story, The Dragon Pirates, Part 2 will be released on Monday.

Following this week's meeting on the refugee crisis with the Council Leader and senior officers, Leader of the Barnet Labour Group, Cllr Alison Moore said:
"On Tuesday this week Cllr Barry Rawlings, Cllr Adam Langleben and I met with Council Leader Richard Cornelius and senior officers, to discuss what Barnet council could do to support local faith and community groups and others in helping refugees fleeing war in Syria.
"We were grateful to Cllr Cornelius for agreeing to our request for this meeting, and we welcome the productive discussion that took place.
"The local community has already shown great energy, goodwill and compassion in organising initiatives to help Syrian families trying to reach a safe haven, and we believe that the council is well placed to be able to show leadership on this issue.
"There are many practical ways the council with its broad remit and connections could help which would not require a huge call on already stretched resources, but which could make a real difference.
"Suggestions that we raised at the meeting include practical assistance, for example using council buildings to help with the storage and processing of donations on a temporary basis, publicising where people can go if they want to volunteer to help, connecting people in need with translators and advice organisations, and working with local businesses who might be able to contribute practical help or resources.
"We also asked the council to consider using empty homes on regeneration estates that are liveable but that that they don't intend using because they are set for demolition in six months, to house those in immediate need.
"We recognise that the council are waiting for guidance from the government on how many people each local area may be asked to take, but we can make some practical plans now to support the wider community in their efforts to help.
"Following our meeting we hope to hear soon what contribution Barnet council can make – as Cllr Cornelius and I have both said in previous statements, Barnet has a proud history of welcoming those seeking refuge. It's important that we now step up and say what we can do."

Thesis Title
How to Maintain One-Party Control: A Case Study of the Political Strategies Used by New Hampshire Republicans
Department or Program
This thesis is a case study of the strategies used by political parties to maintain one-party control at the state level. The New Hampshire House of Representatives, an unusually large chamber with 400 members, is studied. The Republican Party was able to maintain control of the House for almost 80 years, even when two-party competition arose in the state in the 1990s and Democrats were winning seats at the top of the ticket. To explain how they were able to maintain control, this thesis examines the use of redistricting, floterial districts, and ballot design to highlight the political strategies used by the party. An analysis of both the intended and unanticipated consequences of institutional design as well as the interplay and sequencing of the strategies explain how Republicans manipulated electoral institutions and translated votes into seats in order to protect a party's majority in the legislature

Designing Jewellery With Colour in Mind
Colour affects us all, in a way that can change how we feel. The bright colours of spring and summer, lift the spirit and makes us feel happy, where as the dull brown and greys of winter, can make us feel sad and miserable. Using colour in our home décor, the clothes that we wear and the jewellery that we adorn ourselves with, can have a dramatic affect on how we feel.
All colours are made from the three primaries, red, yellow and blue. Secondaries are made by mixing two adjacent primary colours. These are, orange from red and yellow, purple from red and blue and green from blue and yellow. Tertiary colours are made by mixing one primary with the adjacent secondary. The six tertiary colours are red-orange, yellow-orange, yellow-green, blue-green, blue-purple and red-purple. Tints and shades of these colours can be made by adding white, making soft pastels and by adding black, making darker shades.
Tonal value, which refers to the lightness and darkness of a colour, must be considered when designing a piece of jewellery. Using beads that all have the same tonal value can look dull, unless the beads used have different finishes.
Colours can be divided into two categories, warm being, purple-red, red-orange, orange, yellow-orange and yellow. Cool being, yellow-green, green, blue-green, blue, blue-purple and purple, using a mixture of warm and cool colours can add interest to a piece of beadwork.
Monochromatic colour schemes consist of tints and shades of one colour, when using a monochromatic scheme; choose beads that have different finishes. Mixing matt beads, luster beads, transparent beads and crystals can make a piece of jewellery look more interesting.
Analogous schemes are any three or four colours adjacent to each other on the colour wheel and are harmonious because they have a common colour linking at least three of them.
Complementary schemes are colours that lie directly opposite each other on the colour wheel and make each other appear more vibrant.
Split complementary schemes are one colour, together with two colours either side of its complementary.
Triadic schemes consist of three colours evenly spaced on the colour wheel and tetradic schemes are four colours, two from either side of the colour wheel.
Neutral colours are made by mixing the three primary colours in varying proportions to make shades of brown, then by adding white, beige taupe and cream can be produced. When using neutral colours, look for beads with interesting shapes and textures, like horn, bone, shell glass and wood.
Although black, white and grey are not really neutral colours, they are often treated as such. When using black white and grey schemes, look for pearl beads, transparent foil lined beads, luster beads and pewter, to give an interesting sophisticated look.

Earlier this year Sarah Jessica Parker returned to the Golden Globes with a Best TV Comedy Actress bid for "Divorce," the new HBO comedy about a couple (Parker and Thomas Haden Church) in the midst of a bitter separation. Parker took four trophies in that category for her previous HBO series "Sex and the City" (2000-2002, 2004), which also brought her Emmys for Best Comedy Actress in 2004 and Best Comedy Series in 2001. Could her return to HBO, coupled with that recent citation from the Hollywood Foreign Press, pave the way to Emmy #3?
"Divorce" was created by "Catastrophe" star Sharon Horgan, herself a recent Emmy nominee for Best Comedy Writing for the Amazon series (she shared that bid with co-creator and co-star Rob Delaney). Parker is loved by the TV academy as well, with eight additional nominations for "Sex and the City" (Comedy Actress in 1999-2003, and Comedy Series in 2002-2004). This combination could prove prestigious enough to appeal to voters.
But for Parker to win, she'll have to take down reigning Emmy queen Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who made history by winning this award five consecutive times for "Veep" (2012-2016). Yet while Louis-Dreyfus has proven she's dominant enough to set that record, she's also proven it's possible to win this prize for different roles. Prior to the HBO political satire, the actress took this award in 2006 for "The New Adventures of Old Christine" (she also has a Best Comedy Supporting Actress trophy for "Seinfeld").
Mary Tyler Moore ("The Dick Van Dyke Show," "The Mary Tyler Moore Show"), Bea Arthur ("Maude," "The Golden Girls") and Lucille Ball ("I Love Lucy," "The Lucy Show") also won this award for two different roles. That's an elite group, but it shows that Emmy voters are willing to revisit an awards favorite in a new role. So Parker could be the latest star to win a prize for returning to television.
The new Emmy voting system might help her chances as well. Winners used to be determined by voters ranking the nominees in order of preference. Last year that was replaced by a plurality vote: just pick your favorite contender from the list of nominees. As we saw last year with shocking victories for Tatiana Maslany (Best Drama Actress, "Orphan Black") and Ben Mendelsohn (Best Drama Supporting Actor, "Bloodline"), a small but passionate fan base can turn a long-shot into a winner under the new rules. With six nominees in a category, you could theoretically win with as little as 17% of the vote.
Related: Watch many interviews with 2017 Emmy contenders
Both Laurie Metcalf ("Getting On") and Amy Schumer ("Inside Amy Schumer") are out of the running this year, leaving Louis-Dreyfus, Ellie Kemper ("Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"), Tracee Ellis Ross ("Black-ish"), and Lily Tomlin ("Grace and Frankie") as the only returning contenders in the category. It's likely one of those empty slots will go to seven-time victor Allison Janney ("Mom"), who recently switched from supporting to lead for the CBS comedy. So who gets that last slot?
Besides Parker, other strong contenders include Golden Globe nominee Issa Rae ("Insecure"), Golden Globe winner Rachel Bloom ("Crazy Ex-Girlfriend"), Kathryn Hahn ("I Love Dick"), Kristen Bell ("The Good Place"), Oscar champ Jane Fonda ("Grace and Frankie"), Emmy darling Tracey Ullman ("Tracey Ullman's Show"), BAFTA winner Phoebe Waller-Bridge ("Fleabag"), past Emmy nominee Minnie Driver ("Speechless"), and multiple Emmy nominee Lena Dunham ("Girls"), to name but a few in this crowded field.

I've had these ridges on my fingernails for as long as I can remember but they seem to be getting worse and now a "mottled peeling" of skin on some of my fingers has appeared. I've had chronic pain for years (with the attendent medications), have sleep apnea/no-slow-wave-sleep, and am a paraplegic from a cancerous tumor on my spinal cord when a child. But other than that am in perfect health. Does anyone have any idea what this is, especially the nails? They split all the way to the cuticle sometimes and as soon as any "white" appears they start splitting so I have to cut them. Thank you so much
Finger - Nail ridges and Skin Problem?

Responses (1)
Many medical conditions can affect the shape or texture of the fingernails.
Vertical nail ridges and brittleness are fairly common and nothing to worry about.
These features usually come more numerous or prominent with age.
Brittleness of the nails may also be a result of the long-term use of nail polish or exposure to moist conditions (including frequent swimming or dishwashing). Some diseases are also associated with changes in the nails, which can include brittleness. If your fingernails change color or you develop horizontal nail ridges, consult your doctor. These changes could indicate an underlying health condition.
Taking biotin (a vitamin) supplements can help in some cases of brittle nails, and application of moisturizers after soaking in water can also be of benefit.
Suzanne, thank you so much for your quick and thorough response. When you've been through (and are going through) all I have there's no "clue" too insignificant if it might lead to increased health. Thanks again!

Review: Montblanc Meisterstuck Classique 145Categories Reviews
A classic pen
When you think of a fountain pen, which brand and model do you think of?
For many, I'm sure it's the well-known and equally well respected Montblanc Meisterstuck.
The Meisterstuck (German for masterpiece), was first introduced in 1924 and has since been the staple pen in Montblanc's line up. From top-notch executives and celebrities to the stationery lover, the model has fans in all walks of life.
The different variations have a retail price that ranges from thousands of dollars to a few hundred dollars (read about some in our Montblanc round up). The model we are reviewing today is a Montblanc Meisterstuck Classique 145, featuring a two-tone 'M' 14K nib and platinum finishes. It fetches a price of around $750 AU, however, I picked it up for around $600.
Montblanc Meisterstuck Classique 145 design
The pen is the classic Meisterstuck cigar shape. I am a big fan of the platinum finish as opposed to the gold trim that is more regularly seen. It really gives the pen a nice degree of class that the gold just can't create. The cap features an ordinary looking and rather stiff clip, with the words 'MONTBLANC MEISTERSTUCK' engraved into the bottom. On top of the cap is the signature Montblanc snowflake logo.
The nib is a 14 K gold with rhodium-coated inlay. The colour of the gold and silver on the nib work well with the colour coordination of the pen itself. The nib itself has the famous '4810' inscribed onto it, denoting the height of the mountain Montblanc. Also etched onto the nib are the Montblanc logo and 'Au585' which means it's 14K gold. The nib is small but quite beautiful and elegant. The 145 is overall far less ostentatious than the larger 146 and 149 models.
The pen also features a cartridge converter, which is smooth and holds a modest amount of ink.
The Montblanc Meisterstuck Classique has shot up my list to become one of my favourite pens. I had some idea of what to expect having owned a couple of other Montblancs, however, I was still pleasantly surprised with it's writing capability. Whilst not a flex nib, the medium 14K nib has decent line variation and maintains solid ink flow even at its limits.
Even after leaving the pen unused for a couple of weeks at one point, it wrote like a dream the second it hit the page again. The pen is fairly light and well balanced in my hand. The grip section is sufficient enough for nearly all writing styles, with the cap threads not getting in the way.
As a person who loves a wet nib my favourite part of the writing experience is the juicy line of ink that is leaves on your page. I love it. T he nib is extremely smooth, with very little feedback on the page.
My only real quip with the pen is that the nib does feel a bit small. Whilst it doesn't affect the writing, as a visual point I wish the nib was just a bit closer to that of the 146. Furthermore, I have had some issues with posting the pen. It is big enough to use without posting, however, should you wish to post, the pen becomes a bit unbalanced due to the heavy clip. What's more, the cap is likely to leave a mark on the 'precious' resin body. Another small annoyance is that the pen can get a bit slippery if your hand get even a little sweaty in a long writing session… I know I'm not the only one who suffers from this!
The bottom line
So what is our overall opinion of the Montblanc Meisterstuck Classique 145?
While many may argue that Montblanc itself is ostentatious due to their reputation, design approaches and exorbitant pricing the nature of the brand still appeals to me (don't be angry, I can't help it). From the packaging to the lovely little snowcap, the pen feels special, and somehow that makes the price seem a little more reasonable.
Having said this… the $750 AU price tag on this pen is still hard to swallow. Although it writes beautifully, the simple aesthetics and small stature of the pen make it hard to justify spending that kind of money. There are plenty of pens that cost considerably less that give a very similar writing experience, albeit it with a less powerful logo. So, if you have hundreds of dollars waiting to be spent on a fantastic writing experience and logo then this pen is for you. The pen is great, as you would expect from something of its price, but is it worth it? You decide.
- Writing experience
- Feel in the hand
- The 'special' factor
- Timeless design
- Over-priced!
- Posting feels a bit awkward
- Design is a bit bland
- Resin is slippery when your hands get sweaty

Mt brother, the big time write. He has one novel published, and his life now consists of running from podunk town book store to another to sign it for 12 frumpy housewives.
He is always telling me that writing is the only form of art. He hates my drawings. He refused to even use my sketch for his book cover. Last night when he dropped in for dinner (after visiting OUR podunk town bookstore, hah hah) (and me the starving grad student paying for his pizza), he left yet another copy on my shelf. I guess I am sort of proud of him, but I just want to sit at the starbucks counter sipping my lattes, and dreaming in technicolor. I imagine strange new worlds of pictures, dairy gods. I see a cartoon world where I whip his butt in miniature golf. And he is silent.
I'm kind of glad to drop his author butt at the airport, on his way to Boise or Tuscaloosa or Bridgeport.
Damn, he left another copy of that book in my glove compartment.
Maybe I'll read it. Or doodle all over the pages.

Don and I will celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary on Tuesday.
Upon mentioning this to a group of friends, a gentleman within my vicinity boasted, "I've been divorced 22 years!" I responded, "Well, how long were you married?" His face mirrored confusion.
"You mean, how long was I locked up?" he asked. "I got a judge to reduce my life sentence to six years."
Twenty two years later, his remarks were like a paint primer trying to cover a stain on his heart. He's gone the distance alright- but in the opposite direction of my desires.
Our friends, Pastor, Keith Allen and wife, Kathy of Kannapolis, North Carolina celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary June 15th.
They wed in 1985, in their late teens. Our paths crossed on a cruise 10 years ago while celebrating our third anniversary.
We had such a connection we booked a cruise together the following year. Keith being a minister, naturally began counseling Don and I about marriage as the four of us sat submerged in the hot tub on the deck of the ship. We wouldn't learn until much later in our friendship that he and Kathy had experienced a marital setback in their third year of marriage.
Wives first
"After we had our first child, (they have two girls) we were drifting apart," said Kathy. "He worked third shift, played on two bowling leagues and went drinking with his buddies- too often."
Kathy said, in hindsight, she contributed to his detachment. "I was a first time mother; I made everything about the baby. We as mothers have to realize, we are wives first."
By the time she gained that revelation, it was too late. The door had opened to her having an emotional affair.
"He was a handsome, single guy in management that I worked with. He started showing me attention and I fell for it." Kathy said, "It didn't take Keith long to notice I was becoming distant. He came up to my job a couple times unannounced and caught us talking. He wasn't stupid; he put two and two together."
Kathy said the relationship, while inappropriate, never went beyond conversation. "All I did was talk to this guy, but it took a toll on our marriage, the trust diminished. It took a year to get it back."
Happily ever after? Not quite
Bill and Vicki Anderson of Aurora have been married since 1969. They celebrated their 46th anniversary June 21. They have two daughters also, Jennifer and Christina and one grandson, Jacob.
"I believe love is the strongest force there is,'' Vicki said. "It's the ultimate blessing a man and woman could have - but keeping love alive is the ultimate challenge."
She said the beginning of a marriage is a mystery that unfolds incrementally.
"We promised we'd grow old together not having any idea what that meant, we both came from broken homes," she said.
Bill joined the army and Vicki got a job.
"My goal was to make lots of money, save some, buy a car, a house, have lots of kids and live happily ever after,'' she said.
Well, their happily-ever-after got interrupted right around the seven-year-itch.
"We were married seven years when infidelity happened with me." Vicki said, "I left the door cracked for someone to come in."
Years later, Vicki said Bill allowed someone in an open crack as well.
"Only the Lord could heal the hurt, damage and distrust that has fallen on this marriage," she said.
Vicki said she and Bill repaired the damage over time by reaffirming their love and trust all over again.
"I'm not proud of sharing this but, if it can help save another couple from divorce it's worth it," she said.
I agree Vicki, using our mistakes to reroute others does make sharing worth it. I respect transparency. It's liberating. Concealment can be toxic.
Don and I have several married friends and not all of their relationships are thriving. Yet, I've made a conscious choice to refrain from ever suggesting divorce. Regardless of the issue, it's not my place to guide an individual to end their covenant.
Kathy agreed.
"If both parties are willing, seek couples therapy and give it your best effort,'' she said. "Keep an open mind. If you work to salvage your marriage, it can be better than it was."
"People who run a marathon finish because they want to be able to say, 'I ran a marathon.' How much respect does one have for the runner who doesn't finish the race? None!" Vicki said. "There is a beginning and an end - a finish in everything. It's the stick-to-it attentiveness that makes the marriage lasting."
One of the attentive things that Vicki does for Bill today is place love notes in his lunch bag. She said he reciprocates by slipping love notes on her pillow, typically accompanied by a single rose from their rose bush.
Kathy got downright mushy when speaking of her devotion to Keith.
"There's not a man more handsome than Keith Douglas Allen. I love him more today than ever." she said, "If anything ever happened to him, I wouldn't remarry. He's the only person I want to grow old with. We think alike--even crave the same food."
Kathy said they keep their romance fresh with dates on the lake, riding their Harley, and going on cruises.
Nifty 50
Vicki and Bill like traveling also, they're planning a trip to Ireland for their 50th anniversary.
Speaking of the 50th…
Vernon and Gloria Nash of Chicago recently celebrated 50 years of marriage. Don and I were privileged to be among 150 guests who helped commemorate their coveted Golden Wedding Anniversary.
"By the time I was nine, I started praying for my future wife because I wanted to marry a woman like my mother," said Vernon. "When I was 15, I saw an attractive girl and asked my friend to introduce us."
Vernon explained, his friend wasn't paying attention and brought him the wrong girl.
"I took one look at Gloria and told my friend, 'It's alright, I can work with this.'" he said.
Fifty years, three sons and five grandchildren later, the Nash's are still working it.
And so are me and Don.
Happy 13th Anniversary, Babe! From the lyrics of Dave Barnes', "God Gave Me You," "We are stitched together. And what love has tethered, I pray we never undo."

In service to the local community, the Guild placed flags at the cemetery for Veterans Day and Memorial Day, ran registration and the canteen at two Red Cross Blood Drives, donated new clothing to East Hampton Food Bank, assembled Easter Cheer Baskets for the residents of Cobalt Lodge, and supported children and young mothers through the Norwich Diocesan Council of Catholic Women Layette Program.
We put our faith into action beyond our borders by funding the salary of a teacher at a new school in Haiti. The Guild also continued our long-time support of Water for Life, a program of Catholic Relief Services.
But it's not all about the money! The Guild also provides an opportunity for adults of the parish to enjoy fellowship, build friendships, strengthen their faith, and gain satisfaction from working together on common causes. New members are always welcome!

"I guess I hadn't really thought of it that way," she said, then pulled the trigger. Her lips curling up into a small smirk when the guard's body went slack, slumping over his buddy, Rene put her black leather gloves back on and picked up the heavy metal briefcase all the while keeping the gun pointed at the head of agent's friend. Tucking her short jet black hair behind her ears, she walked backwards towards the door of the lab keeping her gun locked on the wide-eyed scientist but was interrupted by a large body. She expected this. She jabbed his nether regions mercilessly with her elbow before he had a chance to say or do anything and turned swiftly. Hardly giving him a glance, she lodged a bullet between his eyes. More men. She darted out of the dark building as shots were fired, all aimed, badly she might add, towards her. Her eyes were radiant with excitement; she loved a good chase.

This is a listing of the kitchen tools I love and use on a regular basis. I link to Amazon purely so you can see where to get it and which models I use, if you so desire. I'm not an Amazon affiliate (not possible in Missouri) and I don't receive any compensation if you choose to buy anything.
I will leave you with one caveat: Most of these aren't essential. Helpful, yes. But not essential. Stand mixers and crockpots are fun to use and surely save lots of time, but they aren't necessary. Although I have a stand mixer, I often still make things by hand just to keep myself from being too dependent on the machine. There is power in being able to tell when dough is ready based solely on feel and touch — power that you lose when you rely on a machine to mix for you.
KitchenAid Stand Mixer — No explanation really needed here. These things are everything they claim to be. I love mine. They're pricey though, so don't sabotage your budget to run out and buy one. You can get by with a hand mixer or a wooden spoon and some good arm muscles. If you're looking for a splurge though, it's definitely well worth it.
Hamilton Beach Crock Pot — I have a love hate relationship with crockpots. I don't often cook meals in them, because I think they tend to overcook things. However, if you want to cook a beef or pork roast, they are certainly the way to go. I cook dried beans in mine a lot too. This one is programmable, which is nice. You can tell it what setting to use and for how long. This was a (greatly appreciated) hand me down, so I don't have the meat thermometer part, but I can see how that would be helpful.
Hamilton Beach Food Processor — I only just purchased this and at the time of writing have only used it once to make hummus. It was a dream though! I especially love the side scraper thing. I really thought I didn't need a food processor — I had a good blender and the food shredder attachment for the KitchenAid mixer, why do I need another appliance? Boy, was I wrong. The food shredder attachment is a beast and such a pain to get out just to shred a few vegetables. The blender is great and usually does the trick, but it seems most things get stuck down in the bottom where the jar narrows and it's hard to empty.
Ninja Blender — We have this one simply because we got it at a crazy good sale a couple years ago. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but had I had my pick of the litter I might have chose differently. Blenders are pretty low on my kitchen essential list though. If you had to pick, I'd go food processor first, unless you're an avid smoothie maker.
Beyond these small appliances, I also find the following items helpful:
Set of glass mixing bowls — 3-4 different sizes. One really big one.
Food scale — grams and ounces.
Food thermometer — absolute must if you cook meat.
Stainless steel cookware — if you learn to use them properly, they work just as good as non stick.
Wood and plastic cutting boards — wood for vegetables, plastic for meat.
Knives — whatever and however many you feel comfortable with.
Vegetable peeler
Wooden spoons
Rubber spatula
Large metal spoons/spatulas
Baking sheet with edges
Pizza pan — has small holes throughout. Great for when you want something crispy and it won't drip. (Like frozen tater tots 😉 )
Muffin tin
9×13 & 8×8 (or 9×9) baking pan
Fine mesh strainer
Measuring cups/spoons
Liquid measuring cup
Corkscrew — no explanation needed.
Can Opener
Reusable storage containers
This list is by no means exhaustive, just what I think some bare necessities are. Be sure to add and take away from the list based on what your own needs are. Also, thrift stores are an excellent resource to get you started. Besides the appliances, most all of these can be found in excellent condition at a thrift store.
