Peppermint Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe – a thick and creamy chocolate cheesecake with chocolate ganache and pieces of peppermint candy
What do you serve for dessert on Christmas? My husband's family has Grasshopper Pie. I look forward to it every year. When I was growing up my family would have pumpkin pie, because our Christmas dinner was pretty much a Thanksgiving repeat. But since high school Christmas dinner has changed, and we don't seem to have a go to dessert anymore. Sometimes it is just Christmas cookies, sometimes it is pumpkin pie, sometimes it is something completely different. This year I think I need to start the tradition of this peppermint chocolate cheesecake!
This chocolate cheesecake recipe is pretty easy to put together. To make sure the cheesecake stays dense and creamy be careful not to over mix and incorporate too much air into the batter. This will lead to a super creamy, thick, and delicious chocolate cheesecake. You can also determine how sweet or dark you want the chocolate. I used 1/2 unsweetened, 1/2 semi-sweet chocolate for my cheesecake, which led to a relatively dark chocolate taste. A great pairing with the peppermint! If you want it sweeter, use more semi-sweet chocolate. Super easy! I used my Blendtec Blender to make quick work of the Oreo's for the crust. Couldn't be quicker!
I brought part of this chocolate cheesecake to our neighbors the other day. They were super excited, and later that day they returned the tray. Apparently it was a huge hit! So impress your holiday guests this year with this chocolate cheesecake recipe. It will come together quickly, and everyone will be asking you for the recipe!

On Saturday the 12th of April, the first U12 Camogie Blitz of the season took place with Tramore GAA Club as the hosts to six teams. Attendance on a beautiful spring morning were Ferrybank, De la Salle, Roanmore, Butlerstown, St Mollerans/ Clonea and Tramore, all providing the camogie players.
In total there were 72 girls playing and the standard of camogie was a joy to savour. Three pitches were set up and thanks goes to the coaches and parents who assisted in erecting the goals and setting out the necessary flags.
The Tramore girls commenced with a match against Ferrybank. The skills honed over the last number of weeks stood to the Tramore team and after great play in the full forward line, there were a number of goals scored to raise the green flags. While all the girls contributed handsomely, a special mention goes to Keri Griffin for her two goal salvo in the match.
Roanmore were next up and again the standard of play was high and Tramore again acquitted themselves very well.
With the astro truf free, the remainder of the Tramore matches were played on that pitch, with Del La Salle the first opponents. The Tramore girls showed some fine skills and dogged defence to remain in the game while also asking stern questions of the De la Salle team. This match ended in a fair draw. With the speed of the astro turf, the ladies learned the value of keeping the sliothar moving at all times.
St Mollerans/ Clonea were next up and the Tramore team ran out winners with a constant threat up front and a number of goals scored.
The final match was against Butlerstown. This match ebbed and flowed from one end to the other. Again the clean hitting skills were in evidence and after a keenly fought contest, the spoils were shared with a two goal draw.
The girls next outing is on the 26th of April with a visit to Roanmore. Training is each Wednesday from 6 to 7pm. All are welcome.

Dear family, friends, and comrades,
As always, sincere thanks for your continuing words, actions, thoughts, and prayers of support. It truly means much.
Before we start, a quick critical request. The most common source of problems is germs. If you are considering seeing us and have a cold or other contagious illness, or have recently had one, or are even around someone with one, please let us know, and we'll assess the situation.
First, the baby boy has continued to do fairly well, all things considered, during his first 72 hours outside the womb. All tests and indications so far are good to reasonably OK. Some details are below. But we've been warned that there is often an initial "honeymoon" period of few or no problems. And several hospital staff have warned us that, even in the best case, this will be a very turbulent journey, with lots of steep ups and downs. Preemies are generally in the hospital until the due date, give or take a few weeks. That means 3 to 4 months of this.
Second, the little guy has a name: Loki Sky. Regarding the first name, I was interested in having a name that reflected traditional cultural inheritance. I read that, many years ago, the Netherlands region followed Norse mythology: Thor, Odin, Freya, valkyries, etc. Loki was a major figure, sort of one god of many. His role is not unproblematic: He was the Trickster, the trouble-maker, the source of mischief. Many cultures have a similar figure, like Coyote of southwest Native Americans. Trouble was needed to prevent boredom. We've certainly had our trouble, and look forward to years of mischief.
Third, Mom is recovering. She still has some pain, but is eating solid food and walking a bit. She should be discharged tomorrow, on Wednesday. Her surgery was not minor, and was even more severe than a typical C-Section. Because the baby was so young and delicate, a larger opening than normal was needed. The doctors said that her uterus was very small, and crowded with little Loki. We believe that the water breaking last week bought us some time, and the little man was able to grow one more crucial week.
We are still in "shell shock" and feel a bit disconnected from reality. I suspect that it will hit us sometime like a bag of bricks. This feels like the best thing and the most difficult thing to ever occur to me. For now, it is amazing to meet this wonderful new delicate person, but at the same time it is very difficult to fully process just how uncertain the future is. For me, words like "born," "father," "baby," and especially "congratulations" are strange. I don't have a crying baby to hold; He is in a box instead. And the blessings are very mixed right now. Despite this ambivalence, it is a joy to place my hands inside the box, and have his tiny feet press against my palm, wiggling the smallest toes imaginable.
Today happens to be my birthday, and we had a little celebration in Mom's hospital room. I have already received the best gift ever, and it was easy to choose a wish when I blew out the candle. And as I turn 34, I realize that I have many more grey hairs than I did a month ago.
Back to baby Loki: His brain, heart, and kidneys were scanned by ultrasound. His heart initially had a slight murmur, which is common, but its gone now. He has just one kidney, like his Mommy, but it appears to be functioning fine. There was some minor bleeding in his brain. Most of this occurred in a part of the brain that is not used after birth (the germinal matrix). Some of the bleeding is near the ventricle. This location and degree of bleeding is fairly common during the birth of preemies, and often decreases around day three. If this decrease is observed soon, then we have one less thing to worry about. He has a bit of jaundice, also common and - if cured quickly - probably not a problem, and is under a strange blue light to treat that. His initial weight (610 grams) was a bit above average, and has since went up and down. It should go down a bit as he looses some excess water. His urination was initially not frequent enough, but has since become appropriate. His breathing is assisted in two ways: a respirator that pushes air in and out, and a higher level of oxygen. We really hope that respirator can be removed within a few days. Lowering the oxygen level is also important, but not as much. It has gone down from 30% to 25%. He is surprisingly long and skinny, at 12 1/2 inches (about 32 cm). His diapers are tiny.
My mother arrived yesterday, and that has been a huge source of support. Mom's mother and step-father arrive tomorrow.
Feel free to call Mom's cell to talk with her. Keep in mind that we have limited time and energy, and are sorry that we have not yet returned all your calls. Also, please do not call her between 9 PM and 8 AM, nor me between 11 PM and 8 AM. We must leave our phones on in case of emergencies. Remember that Indiana is 3 hours later, and the Netherlands is 9 hours later.
With love,

I am speachless. What a little, tiny, beatifull baby Loki! Tears are popping out of my eyes when I read your words and see the pictures. I wish I could do more than give you words, I promisse I wil send even more positive energy each day. I wish the 3 of you so much luck in this journey and a boost for you; I spoke 3 collegues, one was a premie himself, 750 grams. One got a premie, nowadays a strong 4 year old. The other had premietwins in the familie, two girls at the age of 13 now, everything good. Besides that another told me that premies become more care-taking, sensitive adults. Remember this! Lots of luck Martin and I are with you, XX Marieke

Dear "Mom" and "Dad",
Thank you for taking the time to let us all know how things are going at a time when I am sure you are "running on empty". I am thinking of you all, and am glad you have so much support.
I think Loki Sky has already demonstrated his intense desire to be in this world, and his strength and yours will surely be tested--but I've learned that these little ones are so incredibly and miraculously strong. Plus you are in GREAT hands at Alta Bates--they are pros...Congratulations on becoming parents, both of you.
Love, Cheryl Theis and family

Seeing you
in movies and memories
or frozen in pictures
doesn't remind me quite
of your living presence, your
sweet cologne, that which I seek
sniffing, seeking lungfuls
the instant I exit my car, wafting long
on the cool whipping breezes.
I couldn't quite remember
how silky felt your touch,
how it clung to my skin
for hours after;
nor your turbulent beauty,
the rumble of your voice,
how much you make me want to
dive right in,
melt into you.
Nor could I justly recall
the sweet salty taste of you on my lips,
the tang of plankton and algae.
Being near you, I feel
excited, electrified, awakened,
comforted, re-energized,
at home,
feel my soul
filling with sparkle
and my every fiber of being
with sweet life.
Three and a half years later,
and at last I've returned to you.

Last year saw the launch of Simply Play, a free, play value assessment tool developed through a partnership between Sheffield Hallam University and Timberplay Ltd. Simply Play is now being taken up and used throughout the UK to evaluate the play potential of any given space and ensure any investment in play has a maximum return in terms of play value.
Recently, Beth Cooper, Creative Play Associate and Project Leader of Simply Play for Timberplay, visited Pleasure Park in Kettering to advise Kettering Borough Council on how to develop a more holistic approach to play. This has now been incorporated into their successful funding bid to improve Pleasure Park.
Beth Cooper explains:-
"In 2012 I visited Kettering in Northamptonshire to undertake a Simply Play assessment of Pleasure Park. We had a solid foundation from the start as Kettering Council have a good grasp of play and a committed and enthusiastic team who are keen and willing to develop play and play opportunities in the local area. This is a very commendable spirit, particularly in the face of the removal of the large scale capital grants"
The park itself was a fairly typical Victorian Park with a large play area clearly defined by a fence. The play area had some pretty standard equipment with the addition of other features like a BMX track, which served as much as a moonscape, a crawling track, a scooter track and later on in the day, as the older children tumbled out of school, a bike track.
The assessment was done on both the designated play area and the park as a whole. In spite of a 'satisfactory' play area, Simply Play highlighted that the wider park scored more highly for play value with its additional playability provided through other features such as trees to climb and a flexibility of usage afforded by the space.
Where Simply Play helped the team at Kettering develop their ideas for the future was by supporting them in conceptualising what they were trying to do both within the park and more widely in Kettering, to develop major 'play spaces' and not just 'play areas'. This thinking not only helped them to win the funding applied for, but also was built into the current Green Flag application."

The Dues Waiver is intended to help members by providing assistance to individuals whose financial circumstances are such that full payment of membership dues would pose a financial hardship. Situations which would merit a dues waiver include:
- unemployment or income constraints
- time out from practice for family or health reasons
- reduced income based upon extraordinary practice or business losses
- retired from work due to age
Current or prospective members are eligible to apply for dues waivers. Those who wish to apply for a dues waiver must complete the application and sign the certification. All dues waiver applications are treated confidentially.
The Dues Waiver operates on an annual basis, and may be terminated at the close of any calendar year. Dues Waiver Program participants are entitled to all WLA benefits of membership as provided under the bylaws.
How are dues waivers determined?
After determining the regular Association membership dues amount, applicants may apply for a 25 percent or 50 percent waiver. All dues waiver applicants are requested to pay a minimum of one-half the regular dues for their membership category. Applicants should submit a note explaining the reason for their request and complete the certification. In exceptional circumstances, where even these reduced dues levels prove difficult, applicants must submit a note with this application that explains their extenuating circumstances, and suggest whatever payment is manageable.

I am a big fan of buying games from internet sites. I can buy directly from the publisher, I can get a good price from an online retailer like Amazon, I can window shop multiple sites, etc. However, the biggest disadvantage of online shopping is that it is surprisingly easy to miss things. Amazon doesn't have everything and search results can be more limited than it might appear.
That's why I love going to my local game store every week to just see what might be there. For those with more inquiring minds, the closet local store to me is The Toledo Game Room. Those of you who go to GenCon might recognize the owner of the Game Room, Daryl, as "The Bits Guy" who sells all the Warhammer bits. Another good store in town is Checkmate Games. If you are in Fresno, Ca, I recommend Crazy Squirrel Game Store.
Anyway, going to the local game store turned up two games/game expansions this week.
First, I found a game that I knew nothing about: Dice Throne
I have only started reading the rules, but Dice Throne looks like a fun game where you can play 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, or free-for-all. I can't wait to try it out with my usual suspects.
Second, sometimes I find something new for a game that I like. This time it was King Kong for King of Tokyo/King of New York.
I loved the Cthulhu expansion and I am super-pumped to bust out King Kong in my next King of New York game.
The moral of the story

A couple days ago I was playing a game of civ 5 and I suddenly saw something a little funny in one of my cities.
I had just constructed the Taj Mahal and when I looked at the city from the map mode it looked as if there where two Taj Mahal's build.
Has this little bug happened to you with the Taj or maybe other wonders, comment below

Experience Our Award-Winning Facial Specialists Today
The board-certified physicians of The Center for Facial Cosmetics offer surgical cosmetic procedures to enhance your appearance. These include face lifts, mini-face lifts, rhinoplasty, brow lifts, ear contouring and more.
The center is a state-accredited outpatient facility for surgical procedures, owned and operated by board-certified physicians who pride themselves on providing exceptional care in a safe, sterile environment.
As you begin your journey, our physicians will guide you through the latest technology options to give you a natural and youthful look. We will develop a personal, customized program for you, letting you know what to expect and how to prepare for treatment. Following surgery, we will continue to work closely with you.
Among the surgical treatments we offer are:
Mini lift, face lift, and neck lift
A so-called face-lift operation actually combines lifting of the face, neck, and temple regions all in one procedure. A "mini" face lift is a surgical procedure that reduces minor sagging around the cheeks. In a neck lift, sections of the skin are trimmed, lifted, and fixed in place.
Brow lift and eyelid surgery
For patients with drooping eyebrows, we provide corrective measures that can result in a smoother brow and a more youthful expression. Loose skin is tightened and excess is removed. Eyelid surgery removes excess skin and repositions fat for the upper and lower eyelids.
Rhinoplasty and ear contouring
Rhinoplasty is the surgical procedure that corrects deformities of the external nose. Otoplasty, or ear contouring, is the surgical procedure that resizes or reshapes the ears.

The original version of Microsoft Movie Maker editing software was so limited that it disproved the adage "free is good." Fortunately, Microsoft Windows Movie Maker 2 (beta) is a significant improvement, offering a range of low-end functionality and one potential blockbuster feature in AutoMovie.
You work in a scalable interface with menus on the left driving operation. The work area is on the bottom, and you can switch between a storyboard and a three-track timeline interface. That area is topped by a preview area and a window for video, effects, transitions, and titles.
Capture is wizard driven, with automatic scene detection via DV time codes, scene changes, or file markers. The next step is to trim unwanted frames from your clips, which you can do on the timeline. Trim controls are coarse, however: about 1 second in either direction at the default view, so you have to zoom in to edit your clips precisely, which is awkward. Though Microsoft offers a range of 2-D and 3-D transitions, you have to toggle into a transition view to set the duration, which is also clumsy.
Special effects are plentiful, but customization options are limited. We liked MM2's title motion effects, but you can't design the title over the background video, which hinders placement accuracy. Missing entirely are graphics or video overlay capabilities, so you can't watermark your videos or produce a picture-in-picture effect.
MM2's strongest feature is AutoMovie, which pares long video files to any selected length, automatically adding transitions and special effects. You can choose among five styles that control video feel and tempo and add a background audio track.
MM2 can't encode into mpeg-2 format, but you can output DV files, which most DVD-authoring programs accept. You can also output in Windows Media 9 format, but not QuickTime or RealVideo.
Serious videographers will lean toward more configurable programs from Pinnacle, Roxio, or Ulead, but MM2 is good for those new to video editing.

According to former NBA TV analyst Peter Vecsey, Knicks star F Kristaps Porzingis skipped his exit interview last season because of head coach Jeff Hornacek, not Phil Jackson.
In his article published Tuesday night, Vescey explains how Hornacek dealt with how Porzingis acted on and off the court last season.
"Porzingis' swagger swelled in direct proportion to his mounting stature with the Knicks and within the NBA," Vescey wrote. "He resented being singled out for criticism and acted out accordingly. He developed an annoying habit, for example, of parking in spots at the team's practice facility designated for management."
"By then, utter alienation already had occured."
Instead of confronting Porzingis on the court, Hornacek went through the Latvian's best friend in F Willy Hernangomez.
"Willy Hernangomez is Porzingis' best friend on the Knicks," Vescey reported. "Mindlessly, Hornacek got Hernangomez alone one dreadful day and conveyed to him what he should've to Porzingis face-to-face: "Tell your guy to stop playing like a pu--y!"
It was because of this that Porzingis halted communication with his coach. The two reportedly got back on speaking terms just recently, but only by text message.
Though Jackson may not have been the sole reason for Porzingis to skip his interview, their relationship wasn't the best. Jackson was worried about his star's conditioning and health, and was curious as to what he was going to do in the offseason. Porzingis wouldn't tell him his plan.
"Contention definitely existed between Porzingis and Jackson. As far as I know, though their relationship wasn't loosely malignant," Vescey wrote. "It centered on Kristaps' refusal to provide information pertaining to his off-season medical and strength-training regimen. He missed 16 games, six more than his rookie season. Jackson had grown increasingly concerned the promising franchise player was wearing down from recurring tactical body rubs."
Because Porzingis kept his plans under wraps and skipped his interview, Jackson became too concerned with his health. In turn, Jackson began to explore trade opportunities.
"In the wake of Porzingis' insolent exodus, his complete lack of cooperation to communicate with Jackson concerning his conditioning, the Zen Hen decorously explored trade options and perfunctorily pondered offers, much to James Dolan's distress," Vescey wrote.
Dolan decided to release Jackson of his duties after the NBA Draft occurred. However, Hornacek still remains head coach of the Knicks.
Jake Brown | Twitter |
The Knicks could really start their own soap opera right now with how this offseason has played out.
The owner doesn't want to have any control of the team. The ex-President Phil Jackson stirred up controversy and discussed trading Kristaps Porzingis and was let go. Carmelo Anthony wants to be traded. Now, we hear that Porzingis skipped his exit interview because of head coach Jeff Hornacek.
Listen, I don't think Hornacek was a great hire for this team in the first place. There were better options for the Knicks to go to. He doesn't seem to know how to handle his star players. He should be helping the 22-year-old big man become better, and not going through his best friend teammate Willy Hernangomez. This isn't telephone.
You have to remember that Porzingis was 21 years old last season and just in his second year in this country, let alone the NBA.
Being the cornerstone of a franchise is New York City isn't easy. Trying to pick up a strong work ethic from Anthony, who wants to be traded, isn't necessarily going to make his growth in the NBA much easier. Hornacek is going to need to sit down with Porzingis one-on-one and get this thing ironed out.
If this carries on into the regular season, HBO might as well bring the camera crew into practice, because this will become far better than Hard Knocks. They can even rename it Hard Knicks.

Tammy's space was exceptional and looked even better in person. It had all the amenities I needed! The space comfortably fit 25 people. The tables were able to adjust up and down, allowing the guests to either sit by it or mingle around it (standing). The whiteboards were so much fun! My guests were playing hangman throughout the night. I can't even describe how much I loved the space because it really was a unique one that my guests and I thoroughly enjoyed. Tammy was so pleasant throughout the process and extremely accommodating to my needs. She was responsive to any inquiries I had - before, during and after the event. Her friendly/welcoming personality made communication easier. Would MOST definitely rent this space out again. Thanks so much, Tammy!

We had a pretty good day yesterday. Hubby decided to stop whatever he was doing and treated me out to dinner. But not before going to the store so he could buy his son his high school ring. My stepson is graduating high school this June and this is I guess hubby's gift to him. I don't know though. There could be more or perhaps none. We will just wait and see, lol. Anyways, so we went to the store to order his ring and were supposed to go to Applebee's because that was where hubby wanted to have dinner but it stormed so I asked if we can just go to a buffet. There is a chinese buffet in the mall near us so that's where we went instead. I have always liked chinese food and I like buffet so there. Hubby was hesitant because he is the type who likes to sit down in a restaurant and be served. Even if it means he has to pay more. I am the opposite. I am the cheap kind, lol. But since it is my day (which i used shamefully to get what i wanted) he agreed. We had a pretty good time. We ate all we can that we were all stuffed. Even bubby had his share. I gave him two slices of orange which he ate with gusto. And then a few french fries and of course a few sips of sweet tea. We then went home and his daughter visited and the four of us ended talking after I put bubby to bed. It was a nice family day for us all. Relaxed and enjoyable.

Restoring functional connections within the nervous system following injury or disease represents a significant challenge in the development of effective treatments for stroke, spinal cord injury, and neurodegenerative conditions. Because the adult nervous system is relatively resistant to the functional restoration of neural circuits, t is believed that recapitulating programs used during the initial formation of these circuits holds significant promise for encouraging nerve regeneration following injury or disease. During embryonic development, nerve growth is guided by minute gradients of extracellular guidance cues. How these guidance cue signals are locally amplified within growth cones at the tip of elongating nerves remains a critical question. Evidence from a number of model systems that exhibit chemotactic growth towards extracellular signals indicates that positive feedback loops are often used to locally amplify extracellular cues and generate the cellular asymmetry required for guided cell migration. The goal of this proposal is to ascertain whether similar mechanisms are at work in neuronal growth cones, and to define the components and function of these signaling pathways. Based on work by other groups and our own, WE HYPOTHESIZE that extracellular guidance cue signals are asymmetrically amplified within the growth cone by a positive feedback loop comprised of the lipid signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3), the lipid kinase PI-3 kinase (PI3K), the Rho GTPase Rac, and actin dynamics. Furthermore, we propose that Ca2+ functions in a positive feedback loop with PIP3 in growth cones to promote the localized accumulation of PIP3 and Rac activity. In order to characterize these putative positive feedback loops in growth cones, we will use pharmacological and molecular approaches along with innovative biosensors in live neuronal cultures to identify the components and function of a PIP3-PI3K-Rac-actin dynamics positive feedback loop (aim 1), as well as the contribution of cytoplasmic Ca2+ signaling to the amplification of asymmetric PIP3 signals and growth cone turning (aim 2). Collectively, the work described in this proposal will provide novel insight into how local guidance cue signals are amplified and contribute to the growth cone symmetry breaking required for turning and outgrowth to proper synaptic targets.
The adult nervous system is relatively resistant to significant functional regeneration following stroke, injury, or neurodegenerative disease. It is widely believed that therapeutic interventions which can more closely recapitulate developmental processes in the adult nervous system have the greatest potential for restoring damaged or diseased neural circuits. The goal of this proposal is to understand how extracellular guidance cue signals are locally amplified within developing or regenerating nerves to ensure the proper wiring of the nervous system.

If you've been injured due to another person's negligence or wrongdoing and face mounting medical bills, lost wages, and ongoing stress about returning to a stable and productive lifestyle, you may need to consider a personal injury claim or lawsuit. An attorney who specializes in personal injury law can help gather the necessary documentation and tell your story so you can seek compensation from the responsible party. A qualified personal injury attorney will help ensure that you receive fair restitution for your damages and will guide you through the often-complicated legal process of your claim.
Personal injury cases are governed by a set of laws in Ohio that can affect the outcome of your case. David Bressman is a personal injury attorney in Ohio who understands the intricacies of these laws and has extensive experience helping injured individuals win maximum compensation for their losses.
Ohio Personal Injury Law
Consider the following statutes when making a personal injury claim in the state of Ohio.
- Time limits: All states place limits on the amount of time that can pass before a lawsuit can be filed in civil court. These limits are known as statutes of limitation. In Ohio for personal injury cases, the statute of limitations is two years from the date of the accident or injury (based on Ohio Rev. Code Ann. section 2305.10.). It's important that you are cognizant of and adhere to all deadlines associated with your case throughout the legal process. If you file your personal injury case after the two-year statute of limitations expires, it is likely that the courts will refuse to hear it. You may sacrifice the ability to seek compensation for injuries and financial damages.
- Modified comparative negligence: Because Ohio enforces this type of negligence law, it is important for you to understand that your own actions can impact the outcome of your case. For example, if you were intoxicated or otherwise negligent at the time of your accident, you could be found partially or fully liable for the accident, even if it occurred on someone else's property. The extent to which you can collect on financial losses and/or pain and suffering is directly related to what percentage of fault is determined to be yours. If you are found to be 25 percent at fault for the accident, you will be able to recover up to 75 percent of the damages. If you are found to be more than 50 percent at fault for the accident, you are unable to collect any damages from the other party. In other words, you can't be more than half responsible for the actions and occurrences leading up to your injury, or you will not have a viable personal injury case. Your attorney can help defend you against any perceived fault and can help build a case against the responsible party.
- Maximums on injury cases: Ohio has implemented limits on the types of damages and the maximum dollar amounts that individuals can collect in personal injury cases. For non-financial losses, such as pain and suffering, the dollar amount a court can award to a victim is capped at $250,000, or three times the amount of financial damages (whichever is greater with a total maximum of $350,000). This is upheld in most non-catastrophic cases.
Consult your attorney to determine what might be a fair and reasonable amount to seek in compensation for your specific case.

Rotor Round Outer Chainring
If you want a Rotor ring because of the high quality machining and anodization but are not fond of the ovalized profile, this chainring if for you. It has the same features and finish of the Q-Rings except it is completely round. Profiled teeth aid shifting and durable finish adds longevity. Works with all 10-speed drivetrains and mounts to most 110mm BCD cranksets. Best when paired with a Rotor inner chainring.

The Rotor chainrings have been a big disappointment. i ordered them on my new Look 695 in preference to the Look rings. Result: They don't shift well. Shifting from small to large chainring is a gamble. About half the time the chain does not move to the large ring quickly; instead it grinds between the two rings for several crank revolutions before it moves. I thought the problem was my derailleur adjustment. This weekend at a race another rider asked me if I liked the Rotor rings. He had them too. He said he had trouble, "especially shifting to the large ring." My advice is - save your money and look (Look) elsewhere.
AnonymousPosted on 9/12/2012
When my 2009 R3 cracked and was replaced with a 2012 R3, I switched from a compact SRAM Red crank to a compact Rotor 3D crank with these round chainrings on them. Front shifting performance was noticeably worse that it had been with the pre-2012 SRAM Red crank. I swapped these Rotor rings out for a new set of pre-2012 SRAM Red chainrings and shifting is significantly better. I like the Rotor 3D crank, but was not happy with these chainrings at all due to poor shifting.
Cons Poor front shifting

What can I leave at my loved one's grave?
Please refer to our Floral Guidelines, click here to download. Please make special note that while we understand leaving stones and personal items at the gravesite is tradition, these objects can create a hazard and can damage the bronze. Damage resulting from objects left at gravesite are not covered under memorial care.
How much does it cost?
Small monthly installments make purchasing cemetery spaces, before you need them, very attractive and affordable. Click here for current pricing.
Will Perpetual Care be included?
Perpetual care of the beautifully manicured grounds of Sharon Memorial Park is included in the original purchase price of the lot. There is NO additional cost for perpetual care of the lot.
Why should I buy cemetery spaces now? I'm too young.
No one knows when or how, only that it will happen. You can lock in today's prices by purchasing in advance. At the time it is needed, the ones that are grieving are in no state of mind to make these kind of decisions. By purchasing your spaces today, you get peace of mind, save time and money, and protect your loved ones in the future.
What other costs are involved with cemetery property?
Other costs associated with cemetery property include the opening and closing of a grave and a liner or vault.
Can we choose our lot or is it assigned?
You may select the location of your lot from all available spaces at the time of purchase.
How are religious customs and practices handled at Sharon?
Sharon observes all of the Jewish customs and practices that the lot owner requires whether Reform, Conservative or Orthodox. All grounds within Sharon Memorial Park are consecrated for Jewish burials. There are separate sections designed specifically for interfaith households and where one of the partners is of the Jewish faith. All customs and practices will be respected as long as they do not conflict with our operation of the cemetery or the rules and regulations of the Park.
How many can be buried in one space?
Burials at Sharon Memorial Park are singular. Only one burial may be put into a burial space.
Who can be buried in my lot?
As the lot owner, you or your heir(s) will determine who will be buried in your lot. Any unused spaces will remain as part of your family's cemetery property.
Why doesn't Sharon use headstones?
Sharon was developed as a memorial park. The natural beauty of the area is not impaired by many rows of tombstones. Rather, flush bronze memorials that are level with the lawn are used to memorialize a grave. These beautiful bronze plaques may be purchased either for a single grave or as a companion for two side-by-side graves.
How can I schedule an unveiling?
Unveilings are scheduled through our Memorials and Unveiling Coordinator from April 1 (weather permitting) through November 30th. Please contact the main office for more details: 781.828.7216
How big is a family lot?
There is no set size of a family lot. It is determined by how many people you are responsible for and how many of the people in your family are interested in being included in the lot.
Is cremation burial an option?
Yes. Cremated remains can be buried in lawn spaces, private family estate spaces or in one of our Urn Gardens.
Are there burial spaces available for interfaith families?
Yes. Sharon Memorial Park has sections for interfaith households with lawn spaces, private family estate spaces and cremation spaces.

The Refined Collective is back this week with the lovely Joanne Encarnacion. She is a wife, mother of two, photographer, and the founder of gofitjo.com, a blog dedicated to redefining health and wellness. She's also an integrative health & life coach and has been named one of San Francisco's top 20 wellness role models by Arianna Huffington! How amazing is that? In this episode we get real about moving through struggles and the importance of diversity in the body positivity movement.
The Journey to Finding Self-Love
- Jo has a loving family, was in a job she loved at VSCO and was a co-owner of a wedding photography business with her husband. But something was missing: self-love.
- She felt the need to prove herself as an adult in this world because she was a mother at 21. "I was trying to find my self-worth in this space called the universe."
- In 2016 she decided to go freelance and full-time with her blog while going back to school to get certified as a health and life coach. She still co-owns the photography business, but has also made space to do the things that made her feel whole.
"I can't be the only woman alone in this."-Joanne
Being Humbled and Learning to Listen
- A few years ago, she went through a difficult season in her marriage – they were really disconnected from each other and she wasn't sure their marriage would survive. Jo gets honest about how her marriage struggles made her feel like a failure as a woman.
- She went public on social media about the struggle because it was consuming her life. "I can't be the only woman alone in this."
- Through therapy (and a lot of hard work), they learned to truly listen to each other, and validate each other's emotions. It made a world of a difference.
- This has carried over to motherhood as well. She's found that her children have a lot to express and her daughter even taught her a life lesson recently, something she is grateful for. "This little girl of mine is made from star dust."
Body Diversity vs. Body Positivity
- Jo also talks about her fitness journey. It was pretty extreme at first – she experienced substantial weight loss and was even a bodybuilder for two years before suffering an injury.
- While recovering and focusing on her marriage and family, she noticed her body changing. She found that the emotional impact of that type of change isn't something that's really talked about in the fitness industry.
- She talks about the lack of body positivity, and size inclusivity when it comes to workout clothes and fitness ads. Not everyone gets the same body from the same fitness regimen.
Joanne's Favorite Things
- She loves matcha lattes, her new house, and plants (though she says she still has a lot to learn). For all of you who struggle keeping plants alive, Jo recommends a snake plant!
I'm going to leave you with something Jo said that is just so powerful:
"The moment that we are able to give space for others to really just be- and I don't want to say 'be themselves' because people are still trying to figure out what that is- but just to be, just to feel as if they can take up space in the world, we would all be able to live relentlessly."
I mean, how great is that? Give yourself permission to be, tribe. You're here and you're worthy.

Napa River restoration project serves as model
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's top man in the region shook his head after tromping through a restored Napa River floodplain and then motoring on a boat through one of the nation's premier riparian revitalization projects.
"Why," asked Jared Blumenfeld, the EPA's regional administrator, "do we not hear more about this?"
The grapevine is getting louder, with community planners and environmentalists taking note, as Napa County moves forward with a project that, when completed, will have restored 15 miles of the Napa River and added 135 acres of floodplains.
It is already California's largest floodplain and wildlife habitat restoration project.
The EPA contributed $1.5 million Friday to the project, which would never have gotten off the ground without the cooperation of 43 landowners who agreed to take vineyard property out of production so that the river could be widened to create floodplains and riverside habitat. The State Water Resources Control Board and Napa County have also contributed several million dollars to the massive project, which is expected to cost as much as $17 million when it is completed over the next decade.
Flood protection
For the vineyard owners, the work will protect their lands from erosion and floods.
"We hope it is a model for government, private owners and the public to work together," said Davie Piña, a vineyard owner and president of the Rutherford Dust Society, an association of nearly 100 growers and wineries. "We hope we can repeat this on every river, in every state and every community in the world, but we're starting here."
The plan is to remove levees and berms and carve flat areas and side channels so the river can meander during high flows like it once did. The shallow floodplains will also reduce silt in the river caused by regular slides on the once steep banks.
Workers have restored 2 1/2 miles of the 4 1/2-mile Rutherford Reach, a viticultural area of Napa Valley. The work included the removal of barriers to chinook salmon and steelhead trout migration and the carving of channels for them at the Zinfandel Lane Bridge in St. Helena. Fisheries biologists said the work at the bridge, which was completed last summer, opens up 60 miles of spawning habitat to the fish.
Project planners expect to finish work on the Rutherford Reach in three or four years, then begin work on a 9 1/2-mile section of the river between Oakville and Oak Knoll, creating resting pools and spawning habitat for fish. The floodplains lessen the danger of catastrophic floods and flush out insects and invertebrates, providing the resting fish with food.
"Studies show that fish with access to floodplains grow bigger and are more likely to reproduce," said Andy Collison, a geomorphologist for ESA PWA, the project designers.
River runs deep
The Napa River, which runs 55 miles from Mount St. Helena to San Pablo Bay, once meandered across a wide swath of the valley floor and supported as many as 8,000 migrating steelhead and chinook salmon. Levees and berms were built and the river was confined to channels with steep banks as agriculture moved into the area. The Napa is now as much as three times deeper in sections than it once was and erosion is a major problem.
The fish suffered in the channeled river. Silt from erosion and runoff covered the gravel were the fish lay their eggs. By the 1990s, the steelhead run in the Napa River had dipped into the hundreds and flooding regularly inundated the city of Napa, nearby homes and farms.
The Napa County Resource Conservation District began addressing the flooding and fish problems in the 1990s. Levees were removed along 3 1/2 miles of the river, and wetlands and flood zones were created on 970 acres in and around the city of Napa during the past decade. The vineyard owners and the county came together around the same time and began working on plans for the upper reaches of the river. That work, which is now being done, is funded by federal and state grants.
Model for success
Leslie Ferguson, a fish biologist and the grant manager for the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board, said she hopes what is being done in Napa can be duplicated in other Bay Area rivers and streams.
"Every creek has different issues, but this is a model of how landowners can participate with local governments that are willing to remove regulatory barriers and come up with funding for a larger restoration project," Ferguson said. "The scale of this project is unprecedented."
Blumenfeld gazed at the restored wetlands and watched from the boat as ducks and shorebirds swam and poked around what is essentially a new river ecosystem.
"Everyone should know about this," he said.

The Continue Time clock by Sander Mulder is an astounding piece of kinetic art. You have to view the video to fully understand how this timepiece works, and even then the clock will have you spellbound.
Traditional hands have been replaced by a single jointed arm. Each junction serves as a pointer indicating the hour, minute and second. It would take some getting used to, but I'm sure over 'time' it would be a snap.
The clock is made from aluminum and brass and is limited to 20 pieces.

We're a website dedicated to determining the Jewishness of various celebrities, historical figures, and fictional characters. It's a good time.
What do the ratings mean?
The handy About the Jew Score link will answer that.
Why ratings? Why not just say Jew or Not Jew?
Because we had a picture of a really Jewish-looking guy and wanted to use it. Plus, it's more fun this way.
So you guys are the experts on who's Jewish and who isn't?
Nope. Most of the time we don't even do research. We're just making this up as we go along and then exhibiting it in a venue that allows anyone to see it.
G-d Bless the Internet.
Who are the people in the icons next to the Jew Score?
Clipart. And some jackass for the 0 score.
Why don't you guys list (insert Jew here)?
Probably because we're lazy and haven't written their profile yet. We're happy to do requests, but otherwise we have an extra super-secret method of choosing who gets added. We let the guinea pig pick.
So-and-So is not Jewish! His mother is gentile, so he can't be a Jew!
We're sorry, but that's not a question.
OK, fine. Why do you list people as Jewish if they don't have a Jewish mother?
We find the definition of maternal lineage limiting. If someone has a Jewish father, a gentile mother, but considers themselves Jewish, who are we to say otherwise?
And this is similar for people with a Jewish mother who do not consider themselves Jewish?
Yes. If we have a clear statement by the profilee on whether they consider themselves Jewish or not, this is what we go by.
Why do you consider being Jewish an ethnicity?
This depends on your definition of "Jew". To us, it's BOTH a religion and ethnicity. There are people ethnically but not religiously Jewish. There are people religiously but not ethnically Jewish. And anywhere in between.
Are you, the creators of this website, Jewish?
Isn't it obvious?
No, it's not. I haven't bothered to read the profiles. So can you please answer the question?
Yes, we're Jewish. Sheesh.
Why is So-and-So listed in Such-and-Such category?
We give up. Why? Why is the sky blue? Why do only ugly chicks ride the bus in the morning? Why do you insist on asking annoying questions? The answer is, we don't know why. No one does. We're just doing what the voices in our heads tell us to do.
What's with the links at the bottom of the profile pages?
It lets you move between profiles that share (somewhat) similar qualities. This helps us keep the older profiles from being lost and forgotten in the bottom of a deep, dark hole like a once-beloved childhood toy or the dead body of a former rival. Hopefully closer to the beloved toy.
The links don't make any sense: Why is So-and-So linked to Whosiwhatsit and not Whats-His-Face?
There may be some deeper meaning that can be divined from why one person is connected to another. But we wouldn't bet on it. Mostly we're just pulling this out of our tuchases. If it makes sense, so much the better.
Are you behind the banned "Jew or Not Jew" iPhone app?
No. Someone knowingly stole our name and used our information. Banned? Good riddance.
Want to go out for a nosh?
Sounds good. But only if you're female. And hot. OK, you don't have to be female.

A host of problems stemming from the lack of interactive mediums were discussed in the last chapter. The solution to these problems is relative simple: look at a variety of interactive titles from throughout history and figure out fitting categories.
Let's start with a loose group of competitive activities people have enjoyed for hundreds, even thousands of years:
One way to define something is to look at multiple examples and find the minimum amount of shared aspects in all of them. What are the shared aspects of Football, Chess and Hearts? Think about that for a moment.
Thought enough?
Right, here they are:
- Players
- Rules
- Actions
- Winning
- Losing
Putting all these together results in a fitting definition:
A system of rules the players interact with by choosing actions in order to win and not to lose.
This definition has a few implications:
- Choosing actions to improve your chances of winning can be referred to as decision making
- Actions irreversibly change the state of the system defined by the rules. If actions were completely reversible then the system can get into a loop where no-one wins or loses as players are simply reversing each others actions.
- The actions available to each player rely on the current state. As such actions taken in the past can (and usually do) affect which actions will be available in the present and the future.
- Winning and losing are both needed for a competition. An activity with nothing to strive for or achieve doesn't harbor the competitive spirit while an activity where you always succeed is trivial, if everyone wins then in reality no-one does.
Going digital gives us a few additional possibilities:
- Not all players need to be humans. AI opponents allow for single player competitions.
- Cooperative competitions, where human players compete against an AI, are also possible.
What should this new medium be called? Here's the term I use, for what it's worth:
Decision making competition
That's the first one down.
There are many interactive works which don't fit this category. They should have their own mediums of course! That is next.
