As Camp begins, Center still area of concern for RangersPosted by: | Comments
Bobby Farnham and Andrew Desjardins. Read those names back to yourself. Neither of the Rangers recent PTO signings generate excitement, do they?
It's hard to be anything but underwhelmed at the Rangers attempts to address the center position toward the end of this offseason. Hoping a prospect (such as Andersson or Nieves) wins a spot is fine – after all the team needs to continue with its transition period. Inviting PTO's to compete for spots and potentially earn a depth spot is also the right thing to do.
However, the Rangers choices are both confusing and disappointing given the calibre of depth free agent candidates that could have been had this offseason. Let's consider just a handful of names below.
PTO's anyone?Posted by: | Comments
After weeks of waiting for a trade that would bring a new (at least) depth center to Broadway, the Rangers are looking at the same roster they had in early July. Either an acceptable trade for one of their existing defenseman or someone else's center never presented itself, or Jeff Gorton is truly comfortable with the roster, as constructed.
We can debate endlessly the merits of the latter statement, but we are getting to the time of year when out-of-work veterans decide a PTO (Pro Try Out) contract is better than nothing and hope to stick with a new team. Let's take a look at some of the more attractive out-of-work NHL-ers and see if any are a fit for the Rangers.
Which lineup is better: The 2014 Rangers, or the active ex-Rangers?Posted by: | Comments
We're (finally) just one day away from training camp! There will be a whole lot of real Ranger news coming up, but since we've exhausted pretty much every type of camp preview imaginable this summer – allow me just one more random post before the action kicks into high gear.
What would happen if you were to pit the 2014 New York Rangers against the best lineup of former Blueshirts still currently playing in the NHL?
Here's my take on the best hypothetical roster of ex-Rangers that takes into account positions and logical scoring and checking lines:
Trade deadline target: Jaromir JagrPosted by: | Comments
This post is complete speculation and is not intended to infer that the Rangers have seriously considered Jagr or that any negotiations are underway.
In the wee hours of Thursday morning, Penguins GM Ray Shero was able to snatch Jerome Iginla out from under the Boston Bruins. This acquisition made the Pens incredibly formidable on paper, and took the top RW available off the market. For this post, however, I want to focus on another right winger, who could have a serious impact on the playoff races this season. I think the Rangers should bring (back) Jaromir Jagr.
I know that there will be quite a few questions about the recently re-signed Mats Zuccarello, since they will have ostensibly have been brought in for the same purpose. However, I don't believe (with all due respect to Zucc) that the Rangers should let his arrival impede a possible pursuit of Jagr. While Zuccarello is a nice little player, he has something of a spotty track record of NHL success. Nothing should be guaranteed to him, and anything that will improve the current squad should be considered. Read More→
Other free agent forwards of interestPosted by: | Comments
We've already covered some of the more intriguing players that will be available via free agency, but it doesn't appear likely that the big-ticket guys like Zach Parise and Ryan Suter will end up in New York. The 2012 free agent class is extremely thin, but at the draft last weekend GM Glen Sather confidently stated the team would still be "fairly aggressive" in free agency. So who else could the organization pursue on July 1st?
Today we'll look at the forwards.
The Dinosaurs
Ray Whitney – Scares many off because of his age (40), but he actually seems to be getting more productive somehow. Wants to be paid, but doesn't require a long-term commitment. Might make a lot of sense on a one- or two-year deal.
Lessons learned from JagrPosted by: | Comments
Take a good look at this picture. Those aren't the legs of a man who slacks or avoids the gym. This is a photo of a man who is serious about being in the best possible shape you can be in. Jagr's training and conditioning is bar none and it is one of the reasons why he has dominated professional hockey for 20+ years.
As a member of the New York Rangers, Jagr's ability to create offense off the cycle was beyond elite. Part of what helped create those plays in the OZ was his ability to protect the puck, and a lot of it had to do with his build and conditioning. Whenever I talk to those who have either worked for or covered teams Jagr has played for, I always hear admirable stories about JJ working out at night after playoff games, or at 3am in the morning. The guy just took his workout regimen to another level and it showed.
So what does this have to do with the current Rangers squad?
Free Agency Musings!Posted by: | Comments
It's Musings Thursday. The day before Free Agency so that makes this the Free Agent edition of Musings. See what I did there? I'm a genius I tell thee….
I wanted to tell you all that today was Christmas Eve and that we would all be excited like little children for tomorrow morning. Someone got to it before me but the thought remains. I'm so excited. Are you?
Inconvenient: I'm moving apartments tomorrow. Location is a massive upgrade but in terms of Free Agency it's a huge pain in the ass. Moving all my stuff to a place with no internet connection for two weeks on free agency day? Sweet Jesus! My dad is getting an unexpected visitor tomorrow as I use and abuse his internet connection all day. No way do I miss Free Agency day.
Brad Richards. Everyone has taken their guess at where he goes, for how long and most importantly for how much. I think the Rangers offer him 6 years and 42 million. Does he take it? I think so but the Rangers (in my humble opinion) will not be competing against themselves even if they are the best fit.
Random moment of the day: Driving to the garage to get my car fixed – for the second time in a week! – and a Mercedes drove past me with the private licence plate: CD NMC. I kid you not. Has Chris Drury and his No Movement Clause come all the way over to the UK to get away from it all?
Fact: The Rangers will be considerably better after July 1st than it is today. Of that, I am convinced.
Over/Under on Rangers free agent signings? With the over/under being 2 I'm saying over. I think they bring in two new faces (including Mr Richards) and bring back one of their own free agents.
A few players have got new (temporary?) homes this past few days. Let's discuss them. James Wisniewski; I know a lot of you guys wanted him on the Rangers but the defense (barring a depth addition) is set. The West got tougher though, because if Columbus can sign him up and they have Carter to go with Nash then this team is definitely a playoff team in my opinion. Or is it? The West remains stacked.
Christian Ehrhoff; First the Isles and now the Sabres. First things first he is a good defenseman that is about to be handsomely overpaid. I know plenty of people will have laughed at the Islanders inability to sign him but in the end it didn't cost them to try so kudos for being aggressive. Speaking of aggressive, if the Sabres sign him they become much better. Given the new owners ambition don't rule them out of the Richards sweepstakes, assuming BR would be willing to play there.
- You want examples of Free Agency being shallow this year? The deals for Tomas Kopecky, Chad Larose and David Jones were very generous to say the least, especially Kopecky's.
Jaromir Jagr. He loves the attention doesn't he? If he signs with the Pens that's bad news for the Rangers as he's in the division and makes the Pens much better. They say the deal is stalling. Some say it's because he wants to come back to New York. This is the guy that was the first hockey $100m earner. If I'm Sather I welcome him back IF he will play for league minimum. Money shouldn't be a factor for him.
Beyond Free Agency: Prospect Camp has been interesting. A lot of players have impressed. Andrew Yogan looks like a keeper; strong on the puck with good size. He'll impress for the Whale if he plays a full year there. Ryan Bourque has impressed, Fasth and Thomas are scoring goals, McIlrath is playing both ends of the ice well and Erixon has displayed some slick puck movement. All bodes well.
On McIlrath: He's taking responsibility over? Hard to gauge amongst fellow kids but the fact the player covets the role of leader bodes well. If he can improve his skating he may be in New York sooner rather than later. I had him tabbed for the MSG no earlier than 2 more years but if he's growing as a personality and his skating catches up to his size is it a long shot that he makes it next year? Not at all.
- Hall of Fame Selection: I may be biased but I think Eric Lindros deserves entry eventually. This year's class was a good one though and given the candidates next year he's going to have to wait a while longer. Does Pavel Bure deserve it? Yes.
Good luck in retirement to Todd Marchant and Paul Kariya. In very different ways both were very good NHL'ers. Kariya for a while was truly elite while Marchant is an ex Ranger.
I purposely got to the end of this Musings post without discussing the Chris Drury buy-out. I'm the bigger man! Enjoy Free Agency people. Fingers crossed!! Go RANGERS (welcome, Brad).
Musings Time: Post AwardsPosted by: | Comments
It's a Musings day and we have a lot to discuss. How much of it is worth discussing is up to you.
April 23rd. That was the date the Rangers were eliminated from the playoffs. Its two months today already. Time really does fly doesn't it? Look at it this way: at least the next Rangers game should come around quickly.
It's official: The Rangers are playing the Winter Classic. I have to admit, it's great the Rangers are involved, but I truly think the league should have staged the game in New York. Imagine a game between two hated rivals such as the Rangers and Flyers and at an epic, famous venue like Yankee stadium (I know not available) or Giants Stadium? Hard to think the Phillies venue holds as much intrigue.
Music moment: I'm in a lively state recently. On my iPod right now are the Beastie Boys. Always gets me motivated. Sabotage is still the best music video of all time, in my opinion.
Awards Night 1: Nick Lidstrom did NOT deserve the Norris. His brand and reputation won him the trophy last night. The winner of the best defenseman title going minus 2? Oh my.
Awards Night 2: Corey Perry DID deserve the Hart. It seemed that every time I checked box scores during the season, especially down the stretch, he seemed to score the game winner or have a two goal game or massive influence the outcome of games. He was clutch, elite and it's nice to see a fresh face win the trophy. 50 goals is always an impressive achievement.
Awards Night 3: I think the league (given the candidates) got most of the other major awards right. Kesler deserved to be the Selke – he had a stunning regular season. Thomas was dominant and statistically was the best goalie while Jeff Skinner had a 63 point rookie season which included an all star weekend – a very deserving Calder winner.
Nice to see ya! Henrik Lundqvist gets to face his hometown club before next season starts? Well, Torts may dress Marty Biron for the game. Yeah, right. It should be a great occasion for Henrik, wonder if his brother Joel will score on him?!
Awkward moment: I was at work last night and a man came up to me asking if I wanted to work with him. I had the 'right look' and he 'liked the way I engaged'. I would be his 'big summer signing'. I really struggled to take the man seriously.
What do you all think of the Islanders new lease agreement? I'll be happy if it really means securing the Islanders locally. I like the rivalry.
Soccer time; Chelsea one of the biggest teams in World Football have just employed a 33 year old as their new manager. That's less than 4 years older than me. Does that mean I can coach the Rangers?
NHL Draft week! Friday night is the first round, the Rangers are drafting 15th. Or are they? There is a legitimate chance they could move in the draft, but of course it depends who falls and who is available. Given the Leafs are itching to move up the draft (25th and 30th at present) I wouldn't be surprised to see the Leafs try and swing a trade with the Rangers. Don't forget we will be doing a live chat for the first round of the playoffs right here on BSB.
My draft choice: The more I look at it, the more I want Mark McNeil. Will he be available at #15?
Free Agency is 8 days Away. Who can say Richards?
When will Callahan and Dubinsky get their new deals? I'm thinking Callahan gets his new deal in July, Dubinsky in August. I don't think Dubinsky's new deal takes as long as his last one.
Rangers Top Rookie in 2011/12? Tim Erixon. He'll score at least 25 points.
By the time free agency is upon us will Jagr have a new home? He will. It just won't be New York. Has anyone divided opinion in recent years like number 68?
I am far, far too excited about the draft and free agency. I think the Rangers will be significantly better by the time the sun sets on July 1st. What do you think?
Jagr to New York Won't Go AwayPosted by: | Comments
In a rumour that just won't go away Jaromir Jagr remains a possibility for the Rangers as his agent Petr Svoboda has 'offered' him to five clubs – including the Rangers. Even more odd than the veteran winger being linked to the Rangers is the fact he is being linked to another ex club; the Washington Capitals. Jagr's exit from Washington to New York may be one of the bitterest departures from a club in league history so to see him linked to the Caps is amusing.
With several sources including TSN reporting the rumours, there seems to be some legitimacy to it all ,however Jagr back to New York simply doesn't make much sense. Yes the Rangers need scoring and yes, personally I would like to see one of my hockey idols return as he has proved in the KHL (and more recently the World Championship) that he still has a lot of game. However the Czech legend is 39, was never known for his speed and has a huge ego – all reasons why he doesn't fit on this Rangers club, a club trying to be known for speed and collective effort.
Could he make a (positive) difference to the Rangers? Perhaps. He adds a lot skill; would help the power play and would take some pressure off of Gaborik and should the Rangers really manage to get Brad Richards, Jagr on the second line would give the Rangers real offensive depth. At this stage it is unclear what Jagr would expect to return to the NHL but the rumours of other involved parties such as the Montreal Canadiens (who could really do with Jagr's size) seem to be much more realistic than a surprise return to Broadway. When will these NY rumours end? The day he actually signs somewhere else, so get used to hearing about them.
Jagr Not Even Considering NHL Return?Posted by: | Comments
Apparently the great 68 is not even discussing terms with NHL clubs over a return to the league he once dominated. Jagr's agent, Jaroslav Zidek, said that Jaromir was only talking to KHL teams at the moment with SKA of St Petersburg apparently leading the way. Once again playing devil's advocate, what would Jagr really mean if he shocked the world and came back to NY?
The Good: Jagr still possess unbelievable skill, at a level not even Gaborik can match – indeed there are not that many current NHL superstars throughout the league that boast the skill set of Jagr. An infusion of such skill is sorely needed for the Rangers. He'd help the power play and certainly alleviate some of the pressure and attention off the Rangers other skilled star, Gaborik. He proved at the recent World Championship he has plenty left to give, but at what capacity and on what line remains to be seen.
The Bad: Can his ego survive not being the 'main guy' if he chose a place like New York? Would his recruitment retard the development of a young player or block the chances of acquiring a younger skilled forward? After all, there are only so many spots to go around. Then there are wage demands; while they may not be at the level he commanded in his previous turn on Broadway it's unclear what he'd expect to come back – surely it would not be peanuts. One would also need to consider whether he would mesh with a coach like Tortorella? Unlikely.
The truth: With every passing rumour from his agent, out of the KHL or in the domestic Czech media it seems an NHL return is becoming less likely. A return to a club like the Rangers, on a distinct youth movement seems even more unlikely. Yes, he could certainly add to the current Rangers but the key question is at what cost? If Sather hasn't been in contact yet, there's a pretty high chance he won't be anytime soon. It seems it is time to remember Jagr purely on his past Blueshirt merits.

Android IPv6 privacy extension
Currently in android the IPv6 privacy extension is not enabled by default or even build into the kernel. In the new gingerbread build from cyanogenmod it is available but not activated, but you can change that:
The following commands from a shell while your phone is connected via USB will activate it for the currently existing (all.use_tempaddr) /all future network devices (default.use_tempaddr).
adb shell sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr=2
adb shell sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.use_tempaddr=2
You can check settings by running
adb shell sysctl -a
These changes will be reset after a reboot. To make them permantent simply echo the following two lines to /etc/sysctl.conf on your phone:

G1 Upgrade for more RAM
After the new stable Cyanogenmod version was released last weekend i decided to also upgrade the radio and hboot to modified versions that free additional, much needed RAM. Here are a couple of notes I took in the process to help you decide if flashing the new radio-version is worth the risk of bricking your phone.
When I started the radio upgrade I already had install the latest stable version from Cyanogenmod (6.1) and the latest available AmonRa Recovery (v1.7.0).
The following screenshot shows the radio and hboot versions installed before the upgrade:
Available RAM before the upgrade:
~$ adb shell free
total used free shared buffers
Mem: 97884 96188 1696 0 148
Swap: 0 0 0
Total: 97884 96188 1696
WARNING: Do not follow these instruction if you do not understand what happens in every single step. If you brick you phone, it is your own fault.
The whole upgrade process takes about 30 minutes.
- Create a nandroid backup and copy Pershoot's 27.08 radio compatible kernel to your sdcard
- Reboot to the bootloader (Power + Camera) in fastboot mode and flash the new radio & hboot with these commands:
fastboot flash radio radio-2.22.27.08.img
fastboot flash hboot hboot-1.33.0013d.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
- Erase the old system and boot partitons:
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
- Reboot to recovery (Power + Home) and restore the nandroid backup you created before
- Install pershoot's kernel via recovery
- Reboot
- Done
After the Upgrade ~14Mb of additional RAM should be available:
~$ adb shell free
total used free shared buffers
Mem: 112392 110448 1944 0 968
Swap: 20224 652 19572
Total: 132616 111100 21516
The phone feels a bit faster and this is also reflected in the benchmark score:
As you can see, after the upgrade your G1 still won't be able to compete with newer phones like the Nexus One or even the Desire Z. But it will probably run a bit smoother then before.
P.S: Suck it, Moto Droid!

Upgrading to CyanogenMod 4.2
CyanogenMod has just released his latest stable build featuring the newest Android 1.6 "donut" and many other improvements.
Detailed HowTos are available covering the upgrade procedure, but in most cases a factory reset including a wipe of your user date will be required for 4.2 to work. Luckily it is possible to transfer your call logs, messages, phonebook and application settings to the build without syncing your data with google.
You will need:
- HTC-recovery-Image and CyanogenMod-ROM as detailed in the wiki
- unyaffs
- adb from the android SDK
- CM Recovery 1.4 Image already installed on your phone
- hard disk space to backup your sdcard (optional but recommended)
- SD card reader
- ~1h of free time
- and of course a phone supported by CyanogenMod.
I upgraded from CyanogenMod 4.0.4 on a G1, but the following instructions should apply to upgrades from other android versions and phones as well.
One last thing: This procedure worked for my setup, which does not necessarily mean it will work for yours, so backup your data. Oh, and of course I don't take responsibility in case something goes terribly wrong and you brick your phone. Did I mention to backup your data?
Getting started:
Follow the wiki instruction up to step 7.. After the backup is finished, shut down the phone and remove the sdcard. To have the possibility to go back to your current android setup create a backup of your microSD card with your favorite disk image software now.
If your are using Apps2sd you will need to delete all the files on your apps partition. Don't forget to upgrade your apps partition file system to ext3 or ext4 if you have not done so already, because ext2 is known to cause performance issues on CyanogenMod >4.1.99.
The data partition on your sdcard can stay unmodified.
Next you will have to unpack the data.img from your latest nandroid backup:
Create a temporary directory to unpack the data.img to
mkdir /tmp/android_data
cd /tmp/android_data
Unpack the data.imb with unyaffs
/path/to/unyaffs /path/to/latest/nandoid/backup/data.img
Now insert the SD card back into your phone, boot it to recovery mode again and continue from step 8. of the wiki by performing a full wipe.
Finishing up:
After your phone has booted to 4.2.* and you have confirmed everything is working so far, you can transfer your user data back to the phone.
Copy your contacts to the phone using adb
cd /tmp/android_data
/path/to/adb push data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts.db /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/
Copy the database containing your SMS/MMS history
/path/to/adb push data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/
Proceed with the user data of your favorite applications after your have installed them:
/path/to/adb push data/favorite.app.name/ /data/data/favorite.app.name
It probably is possible to push the whole data/ directory at once, but I used the chance to clean up the stored data a bit and get rid of application data I was not using anymore.
Final note:
The upgrade to 4.2* made my G1 a lot more responsive and added a couple of nice new features. Sadly some apps are not working on Android 1.6 yet and will force close or not start at all. For example my favorite contact app Voxmobili Phonebook will randomly force close or not launch. But considering the increase in performance and the fuzzy warm feeling when using the latest and greatest incarnation if Android , the upgrade definitely was a good idea ;)
List of apps causing problems right now:
- Andnav 2 0.8.8.2 (does not work with donut right now)
- Phonebook 1.0.6 (does not work with donut right now)
- k9-Mail 1.010 (has to be set up again, pushing the old setting made it force close)

The Eight of Cups is the eighth card in the Cups suit. The illustration shows a man walking away from a river, on the other bank are some cups stacked irregularly, leaving a large visible gap.
The Eight of Cups in a sentence
The Eight of Cups represents change in feeling towards certain aspects of your life, giving up due to dissatisfaction and having a new perspective.
The Eight of Cups in a time based position
Past – The Eight of Cups in the Past position means that a previous aspect of your life hasn't worked out and you're currently looking for something new. It might have gotten some way through but for whatever reason, you gave up on it. It might not have felt right, or you could have thought there were better things. This can be many things; a creative project, a relationship, a course of study. You have to break negative ties you to your past.
Present – The Eight of Cups in the present position means you're going to experience something new, and it will be completely different. You need to break out of your shell. What's keeping you tied up and constrained? You can't be like this forever. Move towards what you want to do.
Future – The Eight of Cups in the future position suggests that a future aspect of your life might not go to plan. On the upside, however, it may lead you to new things. You really have to just go with the flow.
The Eight of Cups in regards to life issues
Work / Education – The Eight of Cups in regards to work or education means that you might not currently be on the right path. Is it really for you, is this what you really want to do? If it isn't, why are you doing it? To sustain your current lifestyle? Start looking for other options. If you want to stay where you are, look at what you can tweak to make it more enjoyable and personal.
Romance – The Eight of Cups in romance is a sign that your current relationship status might come to an end. Whether you're single or committed, consider the opposite. Like the other points, is this really you? Do you really want this type of relationship? Change things.
Friends – The Eight of Cups in regards to friendship means that you might need to branch out into some new circle of friends. Is it getting tiring, hearing the same stories and quips over and over? Don't stagnate. Did you make friends with some people, but they turned out to be different? it won't hurt to make friends with other people.
Money – The Eight of Cups in regards to finances can have a few meanings. If you're well off, you might feel like something is missing. Money frequently doesn't bring happiness. Help other people out if you can. Try volunteering or giving things away. If you aren't well off, try not to 'settle' if an opportunity comes along, Do you really want to get stuck in a routine of working paycheck to paycheck? consider self employment in addition to what you already do, especially if you have an idea in mind. Many people think they aren't ready for self employment, but more often than not it's better to start and fail than to never begin.
Health – The Eight of Cups might mean you're constantly thinking about how things could be better or possibly focusing on other peoples lives. Do you check Facebook every day and look at how everyone else is doing? Don't compare, it's only an illusion of their life. nobody posts the bad things. If you can, try taking some walks in the countryside. A short break somewhere natural will be really good for you.
Spirituality and Mentality – The Eight of Cups in spirituality just suggests you need some alone time. Sometimes we can have so much to think about that it's overwhelming. You can have great revelations by just being alone for a short while.
Numerology of The Eight of Cups
Eight represents energy and forward momentum. A strong number, it will guarantee success. The Eight of Cups in numerology is a sign to take control of your life and move onto the path you wish to take. If you're not satisfied currently, then why are you still here? Many eights in a reading suggest a strong, positive change in your life.

By Clint Andersen
The Valentine Badgers used a full court press and stingy half court defense to defeat the Lady Mustangs 68-37 on Friday night in Gordon. The Badgers did an outstanding job of getting their hands in the air and clogging up the passing lanes all night long.
The first quarter was very close as the Mustangs had some trouble with the Badger press, but a three-pointer at the buzzer by Brandi Roth pulled the Mustangs back to within one point as they trailed 12-11.
The Badgers began to pull away in the second quarter as the full court pressure began to take its toll. The half ended with the Badgers leading 31-20.
Coming out of the half, the Badgers took control of the game as they scored 21 points in the third quarter compared to eight for the Mustangs. With the game out of reach, several younger players for both teams saw action and the game ended with Valentine winning big, 68-37.
Sara Marlatt paced the Mustang attack with 17 points, Brandi Roth added 11, Hali Sahr, 5, Denie Jacobsen, 2, and Ashton Sasse, 2.

Chewing gum has been found to relieve stress, and it can also help you lose weight. Researchers have found that chewing gum can make you eat fewer calories, and that it also helps you burn calories.
Benefits of Chewing Gum
Researchers have recently found that chewing gum can help relieve mild to moderate stress and reduce anxiety. Chewing gum can also help make you more alert and focused, and enhance your multi-tasking skills to improve productivity.
Not only that, but chewing gum can help you lose weight. Researchers have found that those who chew gum regularly eat less and burn more calories. Chewing gum before and after eating can help you burn 5% more calories than those who don't chew gum before and after meals.
How Gum Might Help You Lose Weight
Researchers have found that chewing sugar free gum for an hour in the morning can reduce your daily calorie intake by as many as 60 calories. Chewing gum before a snack can help reduce your cravings for unhealthy foods. It can make you less hungry as well, so that you eat fewer calories.
Keep in mind that the difference chewing gum makes is small, so you won't notice any dramatic weight loss or changes just because you started chewing more gum. However, chewing gum for an hour a day can help you lose up to six pounds in a year's time, so it could be a great complement to your diet and weight loss plan.
Because chewing gum relieves stress and elevates mood, chewing gum regularly may help reduce calories consumed as a result of stress related eating. Chewing gum between meals can help keep you from reaching for snacks, and chewing while you're preparing food can keep you from nibbling in the kitchen before your meal begins. Chewing gum immediately after a meal can take the place of dessert to help you turn down calorie rich, high fat and high sugar sweets.
Chew with Caution
Remember to chew sugar free gums, as sugary gums contain a lot of calories, so you won't experience any weight loss benefit from them. Sugary gums will also contribute to tooth decay.
Be aware that sugar free gums may contain aspartame and vinyl acetate, two substances believed to be carcinogenic in humans. Aspartame has also been known to cause a number of adverse health effects, including migraines, nausea, blurred vision, convulsions and seizures.
Be careful when chewing sugar free gum on an empty stomach, as gum containing aspartame, xylitol and sorbitol may make you feel slightly nauseated if you chew them on an empty stomach. Chew one piece at a time to avoid this adverse effect.
Chewing gum that contains sorbitol or xylitol can cause diarrhea if you chew it often. If you experience unexplained diarrhea, chew less sugar free gum.

Why Do I Need z/Assure® VAP?
Key Resources created its z/Assure® Vulnerability Analysis Program (VAP) to support you in your effort to maintain security and data integrity on the mainframe. Up to 70% of a corporations financial data might reside on the mainframe – and it might be among the least secured systems.
Many companies suffer mainframe vulnerabilities due to a common myth, that the mainframe cannot be breached. This myth keeps organizations from taking the actions necessary to fully secure their mainframe. Also, most organizations do not understand what a z/OS integrity vulnerability is, and therefore, mainframe vulnerability testing is not generally included in a mainframe audit.
Every z/OS operating environment has vulnerabilities, and once a hacker has exploited one of these vulnerabilities, the exploitation can lead to undetected access to any data on that system.
It is your responsibility to ensure the integrity of any configuration based modifications and vendor software that you add to your z/OS mainframe. This is why we created z/Assure® VAP, so that you can quickly and efficiently identify vulnerabilities and protect your organization from hackers, denial of service (DDOS) attacks and more.
What Can Organizations Do to Protect Themselves?
Since scanning programs manually is impractical and costly, KRI recommends an automated interactive approach to identifying code vulnerabilities. Our interactive approach to vulnerability scanning includes the following steps:
- Initial scan to base line the production systems using a hardening environment
- Review of the Vulnerability Detail Reports(VDRs) for each code vulnerability
- Provide VDR's to vendors
- Apply code vulnerability patches obtained from vendors
- Rescan to verify the code vulnerability has been addressed
- Scan every time maintenance is applied

Paperback books published by the Institute for E-CENT Counselling
So far, as at 13th September 2017, we have published five paperback books, as follows:
Holistic Counselling in Practice: The book
An introduction to the theory and practice of Emotive-Cognitive Embodied-Narrative Therapy
In these pages you will find a detailed introduction to the theory and practice of one of the most recent, and most comprehensive forms of holistic counselling and psychotherapy. This new system (for helping people to optimize their positive experiences of life, and to process their negative experiences), necessarily deals with emotions, thinking, stories and narratives, plus bodily states; and thus is called Emotive-Cognitive Embodied Narrative Therapy (E-CENT).
This book has been designed to be helpful for three audiences:
(1) Counsellors, psychotherapists, coaches, psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, educators and others;
(2) Students of counselling, psychotherapy, psychology, psychiatry, social work and related disciplines; and:
(3) Self-help and personal development enthusiasts.
"I thoroughly enjoyed reading the Holistic Counselling book by Dr Jim Byrne. It is an in-depth exploration of E-CENT counselling theory that demonstrates Dr Byrne's holistic approach – not merely towards the counselling process but to our experience of life itself. From early attachments to the anxiety-nutrition connection and beyond, I found Holistic Counselling in Practice to be an engaging insight into Dr Byrne's unique and compelling theory."
Jill Bamber, Lecturer in Counselling, August 2016

Stress management book: Chill Out!
This book contains a comprehensive self-training program in stress management. It will help you to restore your sense of ease, relaxation and happiness. It sets out to explain what stress is, how to assess it, map it, and control it. You will encounter a range of techniques and strategies designed to increase your coping resources for dealing with the stress in your life, at home and at work, and in the wider world. If you only learn one or two of those techniques, that will give you a minimal level of protection from stress. If you learn half a dozen of them, that will be like training yourself in the martial arts before going into battle every day. But if you learn a dozen or more, then that will be like putting on a suit of armour to protect yourself from external pressures. You will have enormous resilience in the face of life's pressures.
You can use this book by reading it from cover to cover, and doing each of the personal reflection activities as you come to them. Or you can choose to go straight to a particular chapter that you think you might find most helpful.

Albert Ellis – A wounded psychotherapist
A Wounded Psychotherapist: Albert Ellis's childhood and the strengths and limitations of REBT, by Dr Jim Byrne
A critical review of the childhood of Albert Ellis and the impact of his suffering on the shape of Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT)
'A Wounded psychotherapist' is a critical enquiry by Dr Jim Byrne. It is an analysis of both the childhood of Dr Albert Ellis (the creator of Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy [REBT]), and how some of those childhood experiences most likely gave rise to certain features of his later philosophy of psychotherapy. If you have ever wondered what the roots of REBT might have been, then this is the book for you. it explores the childhood difficulties of Albert Ellis, and links those difficulties forward to the ways in which REBT was eventually shaped. It also identified the strengths and weaknesses of REBT, and proposes an agenda for reform of this radical system of psychotherapy. Available now from Amazon, in two formats:
…For more, please go to the page on Albert Ellis's Childhood.***
Dr Jim's autobiographical novel: Metal Dog – Long Road Home.
This book is the nearest thing you will ever find to an autobiography of the first forty years of the life of Jim Byrne, the creator of Emotive-Cognitive Embodied Narrative Therapy (E-CENT). However this is not how Jim describes it. Instead, he writes: "This text is my 'revised personal mythology'. That is not to say that it is untrue. The core of the story is true to my recollection of my felt experience. But it is embellished with elements of another person's life; plus hundreds of years of Irish history/mythology; and several strands of mysterious 'fictional' story, about the timeless struggle of good against evil; of love against hate and ignorance; and of the heroic journey of an innocent goat and a curious boy, from passive victimisation towards the possibility of personal liberation, with the help of a mysterious 'tall woman'. It is a story of hope and despair; of courage and cowardice; the quest for love and belonging; and of the alchemical power of curiosity and perseverance".
…For more, please go to Metal Dog – Long Road Home.***
Unfit for Therapeutic Purposes: The case against Rational Emotive and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Many of this author's criticisms of REBT apply equally to all forms of CBT which utilise the ABC model of human disturbance.
Dr Byrne begins by showing that Dr Ellis was wrong on two major counts:
Firstly, Ellis's claim that there is a difference in degree of disturb-ability of humans and other animals, and that the cause of that difference is the existence of language, and the capacity that provides to humans to think about their experiences, and to think about their thinking. Dr Byrne presents scientific evidence to refute this line of reasoning by Dr Ellis.
And secondly, Ellis's claim that he had evidence (in the form of a foundational case study) that people are upset by their thinking, plus their thinking about their thinking. In a line by line analysis of the relevant text from Dr Ellis's 1962 book, Dr Byrne destroys the basis of this false claim.
Byrne then explores the value and veracity of some of the core principles of Stoicism , which are built into REBT/CBT, and finds that they do not stand up to scrutiny!

Wisdom in Buddhism
Wisdom in Buddhism
Buddhist meditation helped me a lot. The branches of Buddhism where they worship something never appealed to me but Originally Buddhism did not involve the Worship of any God. People often mistaken Buddhism for the worship of Buddha. They also mistaken Buddha for a fat guy when he was actually extremely thin and would go on fasts that almost caused him to starve to death.
Buddhist meditation of reaching a point where the mind no longer desires anything, no longer worries, and is completely still , brought me a peace and even slight euphoric feelings of well being at times. Sometimes that state was impossible to achieve. Othertimes the mind became silent and I could control what came in and out of the mind. The ability to achieve this state of mind increases the more you practice (like anything).
Sadly I didn't stick with it. If you take just ten minutes a day to meditate it will strengthen certain areas of the brain and you will grow in your ability to practice control of the mind which can be extremely helpful in situations where you need to focus on one thing and block everything else out; In situations where you're upset about something , it can help to get it completely off the mind to no longer have the negative emotions associated with it (that are bad for the health as well).
No matter what I'm doing, the mind is not completely focused on it. When I worked fast food, it was so tough during rush times, because my mind is thinking about unrelated things rather than focusing on what needs attention. Meditation helped me concentrate better without distractions or getting side tracked.
It enabled me to have a disciplined mind that could focus on one thing and to not let the mind drift and chase after every thought.
At any rate, I'd recommend Buddhist meditation to anyone, Theist or Atheist.
Buddhist Philosophy
Life is learning and involves self-study, self-mastery, self-discipline, learning from others, learning from nature, and learning from society. Another goal is learning compassion, learning reality, and eventuallly the end goal is to forget about oneself and become one with everything. Much emphasis is placed on humility. Being proud will cause you much grief and make shortcommings, weaknesses, failure, and embarrassment unbearable.
Self-conquest is another goal. Many people never actuallly discover who they are. After discovering oneself, We then learn to control our emotions, control our thoughts, and control our mouths (become more aware of our speech). We are also become more aware of how we communicate to others through posture, body language, fascial expression, and tone of voice. When we learn to speak more from the heart, our words have more power and people will be more interested in listening and taking to heart what is being said.
An enlightened person will be an inspiration to others without even being aware of it or putting effort into appearing a certain way. It will be natural and others will know that it is genuine. Buddhism also tries to get one to learn the right time. If you try to make a flower bloom before it's time you will destroy it. "Haste makes waste."
Buddhist philosophy is also about accepting whatever happens as the best thing for you. Being angry, resentful, or full of regret about what you cannot control, or constantly dwelling on what you should have done differently will get you no where. If you accept the negative circumstance and believe that it is for the greater good, you will be stronger and the most good that can come forth from the misfortune will. Attitude is everything. One must accept that life will be full of disappointment, failure, suffering, frustration, and loss. But Every Cloud has a silver lining!
Buddhism also requires someone you trust who will be a good mentor and correct you and help you on the journey. *Gong*

There's plenty of speed to run at in feature
CHICAGO - At about 10 a.m. on Wednesday, there already was a decent amount of early speed entered in Friday's featured eighth race at Hawthorne. By the time the race was drawn later in the day, the speed quotient had been seriously multiplied, thanks to the presence of stretchout sprinter It's Handsome I Am, who drew the widest post and seems sure to make for the early lead under jockey Jerry LaSala.
That means the featured eighth, a second-level allowance carded for 1o1/16 miles on grass, could feature a breakneck pace. General Darby, who drew the rail, has route speed, while The Word Is Out also figures on or near the front. And a fast pace would be just fine with the connections of Drivingmaxandmitzi, who will try to make the jump from starter-allowance races and more recently a $25,000 claimer into open allowance company.
Drivingmaxandmitzi, trained by Tom Proctor, gets some buzz whenever he starts in Chicago, since Denis Savard, once a star player with the Chicago Black Hawks and now an assistant coach for the NHL team, owns Drivingmaxandmitzi.
Fun horse to own, too. Drivingmaxandmitzi has stayed busy throughout the year, first at Tampa and then in Chicago, and has packed seven victories into the season. The gelding didn't show his best when he finished a distant third on soft turf in an Aug. 25 starter allowance at Hawthorne, but he bounced back with a convincing win over $25,000 claimers on Oct. 1 at Hawthorne. Look back into his form, and you'll see Drivingmaxandmitzi won a second-level allowance also open to $32,000 claimers back in May at Tampa. Drivingmaxandmitzi raced for the claiming price that day, thus preserving his allowance condition.
It's Handsome I Am, trained by Wayne Catalano for Frank Calabrese, has the talent to win the Friday feature if LaSala can harness his early speed. Other off-the-pace horses to consider are Otis Ridge and Rotary. A move to the main track - quite possible with rain in the forecast - puts the spotlight on rail-drawn General Darby.
Mountaineer stakes for Star by Design
With the recent retirement of the good Illinois-bred Meadow Bride, trainer Richard Hazelton's stock of stakes horses was beginning to look bare, but Star by Design has shown more than a hint of quality, and is headed into stakes competition next month at Mountaineer Park. A 3-year-old Distorted Humor gelding owned by the Asiel Stable, Star by Design has gotten very good over the last few months, and routed overmatched opposition in a second-level sprint allowance race last Friday at Hawthorne. Star by Design won that race by more than five lengths while never asked for his best, and ran fast enough on a dead track to earn a Beyer Speed Figure of 98.
Hazelton trained Star by Design last year at age 2, but Ken McPeek had the horse in Kentucky when Star by Design made it back to the races this past spring. Star by Design lost seven in a row after winning his debut last August at Arlington, but has improved immensely with maturity and the addition of blinkers.
"I thought he was real good as a 2-year-old," said Hazelton, "but he kind of disappointed me after he won his first out."
Hazelton said he was pointing Star by Design to the $75,000 Sophomore Sprint Championship Stakes, a six-furlong 3-year-old stakes on Nov. 21 at Mountaineer.
"Maybe that'll be it for him this year," Hazelton said. "He ought to make a good horse for next year."

Consider 8-year-old Mystery Giver officially back in the game.
It was nice and all when Mystery Giver made it back to the races after suffering a tendon in the 2004 Arlington Million that nearly ended his career. Nice, too, when three races into his comeback, he won a by a nose in a $40,000 claimer in late June at Arlington. But in Wednesday's sixth race at Arlington, Mystery Giver thoroughly trounced a stakes-class field, easily beating
heavily favored Come on Jazz and six others with a sweeping turn move under Carlos Marquez Jr. Largely overlooked in the betting, Mystery Giver paid $18.20 to win.

It's nearly 4AM in the morning but I felt the need to blog, so I'm going to go ahead and blog. How's China, you may ask? It's FANTASTIC – I've made a great addition to the Chinese population with my crazy self. I've actually been pretty this past week because of classes and stuff, but we have a week off because of National Holiday, so I thought I'd take the time to blog.
Classes have been good, if you like the whole school thing. Ha, joking. We have a class called 'Comparative Journalism' which is really interesting, although I've noticed the teacher seems to wear the same tshirt every lesson, and we watched a documentary called 'The War You Don't See' basically about the war in Iraq and such and about the media withholding certain information from the public because they want to show the army in a good light and make it seem as if they are doing this for their country, so more people will join. Propaganda, much? Ugh. It was pretty interesting – definitely suggest you watch it.
Ayo's Chinese helper, Sapphire, took us to the market yesterday which was a whole new experience. When we thought market, we thought outdoors like back at home but this like in a building and has 3 floors. The third floor is the most expensive, hence why when we went up there, there was hardly anyone shopping on that floor. Anyway, I got a little way excited because things were quite cheap… and well, you know the story. There shoes are funny over here though because they have fake Converse and Nike – hilarious, because Converse has been renamed to Sheng Bu or something like that. Can't even.
When we were waiting outside the toilets (another story, we had to search for a toilet because the first one we went to REEKED. I think I nearly threw up in my mouth, it was that disgusting), two Chinese girls came up to me and started speaking to me. At first I was like, "What the hell is going on?" and then I realised that they wanted to practice their English on me. So sweet. One more girl came up to us and she was practicing her English as well, which was pretty good I might add, and I ended up exchanging numbers with two of them. Their English names were Apple and Snow. I wanted to cry because just because, who names themselves that? Ah, they are so endearing.
Yesterday, my loan came in – so I kind of went shopping again, this time going to the shops nearer the campus. Good or bad idea, I'm still figuring that out. I ended up with more clothes and a gilet, one I've been looking for for ages and oh my, it's so nice and I have no regrets in spending 525 yuan on it. Ha.
The other week we got invited to play ping pong by our two friends in our CCS class, Rachel and Xie, which was actually so much fun. At first, I was crap. Now I'm definitely getting better and can actually hit the ball without looking like a moron. Ayo and I even have our own rackets now! We'll definitely be playing more ping pong this holiday – we'll hopefully going to Shanghai as well but I'm not sure what's happening the planning on that. We're still in the hotel as well…

Stuffed buns are a very good healthy Tiffin recipe. This is a very nice healthy ifthar recipe. This was an idea of one of my friend and she gave the recipe to me and I tried it today. It was tasty and awesome. Kids will grab it and try this with small buns. Thanks to Jazeera Faizal my friend who shared this recipe with me. Very very simple recipe and easy to prepare.takes hardly 15 min to prepare.Have a look...
Baby Buns / Small buns – 5no
Potatoes – 1no (Boiled)
Carrot - 1 no (Boiled)
Beans – hand full (boiled and cut in fine pieces)
Coriander leaves few
Onion – ½ no (finely chopped)
pav baji masala – 1 tsp
Red chili powder – 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Oil or butter for toasting
Eggwhite for sealing the buns/ maida paste
This filling I used to make it when I prepare the puffs or king samosa. We can do any other filling also. Even a non veg filling like chicken, prawns can also be used… But I like only veg filling in bread and buns.
Heat oil in a pan; add onion and sauté till golden brown. Add the spices and salt . Mix potatoes and other vegetables and smash it well . Check for salt. Add the coriander at last. So the filling is ready.
Now stuffing :
Take the bun, cut out a semi circle in the base or side of the bun. Scoop out the bun bits little. Stuff the filling in to it. and seal it with egg white or with maida paste. Heat a tawa, grease it and roast the bun slightly. Serve hot.

"The car was
sold to me in the early 60's by bill of sale (no
title) by the wife of the then-current owner who had
just died in a race (possibly Jim Place, the name
sounds familiar). The car was in sad shape at the
time, (just a shell of oxidized aluminum and tubular
frame) so I relocated it from the South Side of
Chicago to a garage on the North Side where it
languished for several more years, until late in 1968.
and strapped for cash, I sold it to a group of
enthusiasts from Wisconsin who trailered it home on a
flatbed with the hopes of restoration. I had hoped
that they would contact me with updates but, alas,
they never did."

Interior Design is both an art and a science. As the discipline that interfaces between architecture and the user, its purpose is to enhance the quality of life and facilitate human activity within the built environment. The Interior Design baccalaureate curriculum combines the critical thinking skills and broad, cultural knowledge inherent in the liberal arts with the creative, technical, and professional skills necessary for interior design practice. Coursework focuses on issues relevant to current design practice, including: environmental concerns, the use of sustainable materials for "green design," the needs of special populations, and changing technology.
The Art Institute of Atlanta is an institution with a rich history of academic achievement. We are a private college of creative professional studies that prepares students for careers in design, media, and culinary arts. Our academic programs are formulated with industry input.

There is no better feeling than buying your first car. It's like buying freedom! You can finally go anywhere you want, whenever you want. You no longer have to rely on your parents or public transport. You'll love every second of your new purchase. The only tricky part is figuring out what to buy. Taking the leap and buying your first car can be complicated and confusing. It's a big decision and it's crucial you get your money's worth. Before you head to the dealership, read this guide and make sure you've done your research.
Prioritise your car needs
It's all well-and-good deciding to buy your first car. But why are you buying it? What are the main priorities for you when it comes to driving. Ask yourself how you will use the vehicle. Are you planning on making long motorway journeys, or just nipping to the shops? The answer will greatly affect your choice of car. Do you want good fuel economy or a fierce engine? Do you have children or a dog to squeeze into the back of the car? Use these priorities to narrow down your list of potential options.
Buy secondhand
In today's market, a used car is probably your best option. If it's your first car, you're often on a tight budget. That means making the most of every penny. You can usually find a secondhand model for half the price of the brand new alternative. At three or four years old, it will still be healthy and reliable. It may even fall under the factory warranty too. Start by looking at the likes of http://www.motorlinedirect.co.uk to get a sense of what's out there. Buying secondhand is the best way to make the most of that money.
Calculate your running costs
We're sure you've already drawn up a budget for buying the vehicle. Hopefully, you've scraped together enough money for the deposit and budgeted for monthly payments. But, have you considered the running costs too? Your tax, insurance and fuel costs all add up over time. You should also budget for an emergency fund in case of repairs or breakdowns. Once you've chosen your car, get an insurance quote and work out fuel costs based on its mileage.
Take someone with experience
Armed with knowledge and a strict budget, it's time to visit your first dealership. It's often best to take someone who knows the business and has done this a few times. They'll know what to expect and can help guide you through the process. There are often additional charges or extras to consider. You might find yourself confused without a helping hand.
First-time buyers are often worried about haggling and negotiating. It doesn't come naturally to everyone, but it's well worth offering a lower price. Secondhand dealers, in particular, are likely to knock off a small amount. If you don't ask, you don't get!
If you've made it to the end of this post, congratulations! You're ready to buy your first car. Good luck and we hope you enjoy every second of freedom.

By all accounts, Trump's inauguration festivities were palpably eclipsed by those protesting it.
While only 250,00 Americans descended on Washington to support the new POTUS, half a million protesters in D.C. were joined by nearly five million others in Denver, Milwaukee, New York, Miami, Chicago, Los Angeles and Boston, with support around the globe. This is the We Party. It is an intensive repudiation of what Trump represents. From the repugnant sexualization of his own daughters, contempt for women, suffocating narcissism, bullying of minorities and disabled, complete lack of civility during his White House quest – Trump has become a symbol, a living manifestation for all that is wrong with society. Throw in his many financial conflicts of interest, Russian ties and loss of the popular vote, it is burdensome even accepting the legitimacy of his Oval Office occupation.
The We Party provides an important counter-narrative. When future generations question the sanity of the voters who cast ballots for an unqualified man of such putrescent character, the We Party demonstrations announce that a majority of us do recognize the danger. Unlike the Koch-funded astro turf that was the Tea Party, the We Party is truly grassroots: like the Arab Spring which purged dictators across North Africa, the movement is leaderless, hopeful, democratic and massive. Trump may be a monster, but he has awakened the sleeping giant. The progressive center of the United States has proved limitless when called to action, even in the face of tremendous odds. The annals of history, detailing the abolition of slavery, anti-war movements dating back to the 1800s and modern civil rights campaigns show this to be fact. The only danger is a tragic return to slumber ahead of the crucial 2018 midterm elections. Future generations now watch.

How many ways can you learn from a pumpkin?
Educating through exploration
In the raised beds behind the Treehouse, our kindergarten and first grade classroom, students have planted pumpkins. As they watch them grow, swell and ripen, they document the life cycle of the plant in drawings, writings, and collages. They take a fieldtrip to a local farm where farmers can answer their questions. Why are there lines running up and down the outside of a pumpkin? Those mark where the seeds are connected to the flesh.
Back at school, the class cuts the pumpkin open. They count the seeds—by ones, fives, tens and hundreds. They discover the different shapes numbers can create. And finally, they roast the seeds to share at snack. Science, writing, social studies, math—all inside a pumpkin shell.
Flexible learning for growing minds
Learning in the Treehouse emerges from hands-on experiences. Students take apart toys, sort sea creatures, write their own books. By combining kindergarten and first grade, students are freed to move at their own pace through the curriculum. In language arts and math classes, students are grouped by ability, not age, allowing the teacher to differentiate instruction. Our small classes provide unique flexibility.
Kindergarten and first grade students love coming to school at RMDS. They find joy in learning, in their friends, and in their community. As one kindergartener told his parents, "I love school and I love coming to school here."
Learn more:
Language Arts in the kindergarten and first grade classroom develops the skills and strategies to build lifelong readers and writers. The multi-grade classroom makes it easy for students to progress at their own pace so that they are always challenged and moving forward. Even in the youngest grades, students are engaged with critical reading questions, comparing the characters of Goldilocks and the Big Bad Wolf in a unit on fairy tales, or considering the many forms of kindness in the Frog and Toad books. Writing begins with personal narratives, encouraging students to think about the essential components of stories while mastering spelling conventions.
Hands-on multisensory math builds the foundations for long-term success with mathematical thinking. Students explore essential concepts such as patterns, data, measurement and money through manipulatives, story problems and play. Arithmetic practice is differentiated, with our earliest students comparing and ordering numbers, while others investigate place value or fractions. Multi-disciplinary projects allow students to apply mathematical thinking in novel situations, culminating in a major unit such as the penguin project, which combines math, science and reading to explore penguin colonies around the world.
To inspire our young makers, the class spends time building and creating in Science. Makes are curious, playful, persistent, resourceful and responsible. Through hands-on projects and inquiry, we foster these important abilities and attributes in each of our students. In a study of the science of toys, students construct catapults and tops to explore force and motion. To understand energy and electricity, students build solar-powered machines and conductivity testers.
Social studies begins with our most intimate communities: our classroom and our families. As students get to know each other, they encounter a rich diversity of experiences and backgrounds. The class explores holidays and cultural traditions from around the world. As the scope widens, social studies expands to the community around us, considering how far "local" can reach. From a post office study that gathers mail from around the globe to a unit on farming and agriculture, students learn that they are connected to a wide and complex world.
True learning comes when children feel a sense of belonging and significance in their classroom. Social and emotional learning in kindergarten and first grade ensures that all students feel known, understood and valued as contributing members. Weekly mindfulness practice gives students the tools they need to build empathy, patience, and gratitude. Individually, they learn to be aware of their own emotions and articulate their feelings. Together, they work to resolve conflicts peacefully and independently.

Nicaragua Global Immersion Course
A business degree is about more than spreadsheets and cash flow analysis.
Since the fall of 2006, the Wake Forest School of Business has partnered with small businesses in Nicaragua to find new ways to optimize their value through business skills seminars. Led by students, the business skills seminars include modules on operations, organizational behavior, marketing, and finance.
The learning exchange between students and Nicaraguan entrepreneurs is a meaningful and perspective-changing experience, and the knowledge gained is directly applicable to students' careers.
Important dates:
- Deadline to sign up for Nicaragua Global Immersion course – November 15 (early bird); December 15 (final)
- Course fee – $1850 (includes: accommodations while abroad, in-country transportation, guides/ translators, some touring/tickets to cultural and historical visits, and in-country health insurance. The cost of international airfare, visas and/or passports, meals other than those included in the trip itinerary, entertainment, and independent activities that are not part of the trip are not included in the program cost. Hotel rooms are priced for double occupancy; there is an additional charge for single room requests.)
- Class sessions – we will have one session each in January and February, on dates to be determined based on participant schedules.
- Travel dates – March 3-11, 2018.

Which do you prefer, gold or silver?I refuse to pick one, I like both, and I match my jewellery to the colours I'm wearing on a particular day. So, if I'm wearing blue or green, it's usually gold-tone jewellery, and silver with pink, fuchsia or purple.
However, today I wanted to try something different, and decided to wear gold-tone jewellery with this hot pink dress.
|dress L.K.Bennett (old) /shoes Clarks (old) / bag DKNY / sunglasses Miu Miu
I like this type of a dress; in fact, I have a wardrobe full of them, in various colours. I just haven't worn any of them for a while. I think it's mainly because I think this type of a dress is perfect for winter: with a little cashmere cardigan on top, and the Spanx it requires is really not something I want to wear on a hot day... And constant travelling has made me lazy: I seem to favour wash-and-wear jersey dresses that can be tossed into a suitcase and always emerge wrinkle-free...

What do you think, do pink and gold go together?
