The increased media coverage of rising star athletes is greater than ever and so is the role these athletes have on the younger generation.

Jump Bounce House Rentals History
Inflatable castles (also called bouncy houses, bounce houses, bouncy castles, bounce house rentals, moon bounces, moonwalks, jump house, or jumpers) are temporary inflatable structures that are rentals for functions, school and church festivals and village fetes(Wikipedia wrote this ha!) and used for recreational purposes, particularly for children. The growth in the use of such devices has led to a rental industry which includes inflatable slides, obstacle courses, and games. The first bounce house rentals were in 1966 in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Indie - MMO - RPG - OnLine - browser game project called BUKKAKU is always moving and for now in basic development. Therefore we will be happy if you support us by giving us Like, sharing or subscribe our channels. Every moment we will bring some news about the project and other things. Also we welcome any feedback. We are preparing elements from various places around the world for the game. We greatly emphasize popular style called Kawaii. That will be combined with horror elements and Mexican styles. Game project i am currently creating will be placed in asian continents "life-style problematics" with a little bit of Mexico.
Graphical style of the new project is in greater extend purely in vector lines and skewed hexa-lines. Therefore it will contain mainly various crystalline, triangular and sharp edges but rounded shapes as well. Designing in curves allows great many ideas for elaboration. It's actually very close to folding origami, which folding principles is one of main concepts of complexity and beauty in the game. The game will be based on polygon art (flat for now). You can find more informations about the project on official social profiles and blog.
"The game itself is gorgeous. It combines a sharp-edged origami art style with a brightly-colored Mexican flair. It looks like Día de los Muertos decorations had a baby with paper Pokémon."
"As to the game itself, it's said to take place around Asia and seems to be a brawler or fighting game of some kind as it follows a character that the creator describes as "Pokemon samurai with weapons and spells." Apparently, they're trying to emphasize both the cute and terrifying in this character, as they look adorable but are actually deadly – the game also has decapitations with blood spurting everywhere."
As in other projects the community is very important for Bukkaku.
And as it's about connecting users, it must be built as soon
is possible.
Enter a join the Bukkaku community.
You will be able to connect your character with it's game world and not only.
You will be able to get in this unique japanese/mexican

Join Lee Lanier for an in-depth discussion in this video Combining multiple elements of a 3D explosion, part of VFX Techniques: Compositing an Explosion with Fusion 7.
- So, we're back to the same network. I've added a blue underlay to highlight this area. We're ready to go back into 2D, and here's where we left off with that renderer of the 3D, the doors with the reflections. Now, let's create a new section. There's more to bring in. This time, we're gonna go back and bring in a 2D render of the explosion, itself, which was done in Maya with fluid dynamics. So, starting in this upper left area, we'll start with a loader and bring in the main blast, and this is in the 3DRenders folder, under Blast.
Take a look and here it is. It's the fire and smoke with the car cut out. Now, we're gonna go into Maya briefly and talk about that's done in a later video, but, for now, you can see that it's just a big explosion around the car. I do have to make sure it starts in the right frame, so, once again, I'm going to do a custom Hold First Frame, 19. There we go. Lets go to the next loader. We have two more parts to bring in. This time, it's a smaller blast.
It's little arms that shoot off on the sides, and the first one we'll bring in is called HoodBlast. It's a fire that shoots out of the hood. Take a look at this. There's a little trail that starts where the hood is and flies out. Now, this one seems too slow. The original blast, pretty good speed, that was set in Maya. In order to get this particular render to work, I had to slow down the simulation. It just feels too slow compared to the main blast, but we can time warp right here in Fusion.
So, to do that, I'm gonna go to a new tool. Add Tool. Under Miscellaneous, Time Speed. Time Speed is basically a time warper. I'll hook this blast to it. In the options, if i want the footage to be faster, I increase the speed over 1. If I want to slow it down, I lower it below 1. Now, when it goes faster, it throws frames away, and that's okay in this situation. If I was to slow it down, it'd have to blend frames together to create new frames, and it's not the best blend, but it's okay.
Now, if you wanted more advanced time warping, you'd have to get into the motion estimation tools, but we're not going to do that with this particular project. Since we are going faster, it's okay. I'm just gonna go and set this to 1.4 to speed it up, and let's play that back, now. Kinda looks a little bit better. Now, I do need to make sure it starts at the right frame, so once again, I'll do a delay. Now, it's not called Hold First Frame, here, it's called Delay. I'll enter 19, here.
What that means is it's not frozen anywhere. It simply doesn't exist until frame 19, so as long as I'm looking at the correct tool, here, there's nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, and then, it starts, which is fine for an explosion. All right, one more loader. We have another companion explosion, or explosive arm coming out, and this one is called DoorBlast. It comes out of the doors. This one suffers from the same slowness, so I'm gonna add a Time Speed to that.
Now, I can actually just copy this one over. Control or Command C. Control or Command V. Hook this one up. Look at it. It has the correct delay, already, and the correct speed. All right, now I'm gonna combine these three different renders together into a master explosion. Once again, time for a merge. At first, I'll combine the hood and the door together, and they don't touch, so I don't really care about the order of connection.
It doesn't matter who's foreground or background. Now, they're together. Now, I need to connect that with the main blast. Here, I do care about the order. I want the main blast to be in the background, and the other merge to go into the foreground. Lemme make sure that hooks up. There we go. And this merge into the foreground. Gonna look at that, and that's everything. Now, there's some issues with color grading.
We're gonna get to that later, but for now, I can improve this slightly and better blend the small explosive arms with the main blast by changing the blending mode. Much like other programs, these merge tools have a blending mode, which is right here, and you can change that from Normal to something specialized to make the blend better. In this case, Screen works great. Screen throws away the dark parts, so basically, it puts the bright parts over the background and throws away the parts that were darker. So, I'm gonna lose those dark fringes, and it starts to merge a little bit better with the main blast.
Let's take a look. There we go. There was our explosion. So, we used three more loaders to bring in some more 3D renders, and we're able to warp the speed of two of those through Time Speed, and then, once again, combine them with a couple of merges.
- Setting up a Fusion project
- Importing plates, static art, and 3D renders
- Merging nodes
- Assigning materials
- Color grading the explosion
- Working with fluid dynamics in Maya
- Combining the renders and 3D with live-action footage

Singer Becky G has dismissed the assumption she doesn't take pride in her Latin roots because of her status as a second generation Mexican-American.
The Shower singer's grandparents immigrated to America and laid down roots in Los Angeles, California, where the 19-year-old grew up. Becky has been hit with criticism over the years for assimilating too much into American culture, and not enough in her Latin heritage, but in a powerful essay for PopSugar Latina, the star opened up about her own quest for personal identity.
"Everyone has their own version of the American dream. People come from all over the world to live in the land of the free. For my Mexican grandparents, the American dream began with a need for a better life, better education, and better job opportunities for their loved ones. For some, like my grandpa Miguel, it also means leaving family behind for a while to secure a life and home of their own."
"'You don't look Latina' or 'You don't even speak Spanish,'" she continued in the essay penned in honour of Hispanic Heritage Month. "These are the remarks that us second- and third-generation-born American Latinos often hear. The truth is, the lack of language knowledge does not lessen the Latin blood running through our veins or the stories our last names carry. There is no 'look' to the passion us Latinos carry within us.
"Although my Spanish is flawed and I didn't grow up in Mexico, I take pride in my roots. My family's history and the fact that all the traditions and morals passed down have shaped me to be who I am today is what it means to be a second-generation-born Mexican-American for me. I might not speak Spanish perfectly, but I honor my grandparents and culture in many other ways."
Becky, who is dating soccer star and first-generation Argentinian Sebastian Lletget, went on to describe how important food and music are in keeping her grounded to her Latin roots.
She ended the post by encouraging other Latinos to fight through any adversity they may come across in life, writing, "we must stay driven and keep hope, and we must never lose sight of our dreams."

When I deadlift, my forearms and wrist ache almost beyond belief! Do you just ride through this or do you do things to stop it?
Do you use chalk when you train? I tend not to use straps on any exercises and my grip gets worked very hard. If you are training heavy consistently your grip will improve, just make sure you leave your straps in your gym bag. The only time I use straps is if I'm training for a strongman contest and they have axle deadlifts or car deadlifts for one of the events. I will still train my normal deadlift from the floor without straps to keep my grip strong. The pain you are feeling is your grip getting stronger, there are many different bars you can use to deadlift. It's possible the bar you are using has very little or no grip on it, the cheaper bars you find in gyms tend to be like this. Other bars that could be used for deadlifting are the Okie bar, Texas deadlift (black oxide) and an Eleiko weight lifting bar (silver colour). Try adding some grip work in to your training, pinching plates is a good idea, get two 10kg disks, hold them together with one hand until your grip goes. Rack or block deadlifts are also very good, you can deadlift more than you would from the floor so your grip gets worked very hard. Go 20kg over your floor deadlift if possible. I tend to go through any pain I feel in my grip when training, as long s it's muscular pain. Train hard but train smart, sometimes pain is our bodies way of telling us to stop, to protect us from injury.
I injured my lower back (muscle) and I am really worried it will go again deadlifting, do you have any advice here?
Is it the spinal erectors? When you say ''injured'', how did you injure your lower back and have you consulted your doctor?? Deadlifts put a massive strain on your lower back if not performed correctly and can cause serious damage. A lot of people round the lower back when deadlifting, even more so when the weight gets heavier.
It's very important to keep your back as flat as possible and bend your legs. Remember to always work your abdominals just as hard as your lower back, you need to keep a balance in your core. Make sure your routine contains a lot of exercises for the entire core, not just the abs. I like to use a lot of twisting movements with a medicine ball or weights and train the smaller muscles of the core, even the serratus. If you have consulted a doctor and they have given you the green light to deadlift, I suggest you start out light and keep the reps to sets of 5. Dont be afraid to add some bodyweight or light weighted hyper extensions, you can do these during the week and even super set them with abdominal rolls with an ab wheel, to stretch your abdominals out. If you dont have an ab wheel, use a barbell and roll it out in front of you.
If you start to feel pain then just STOP!! Don't bounce the reps from the floor, start each rep the same as the first but stay very tight. Use a thick powerlifting belt on your heavier sets, but try and get some work done without a belt first to strengthen your abdominals.
Hi Chris, when I squat I have to take a wide stance otherwise I would fall backwards. However I am a bodybuilder and do not want to stand too wide as it doesn't hit my quads the same, do you have any advice to help me take a narrower stance?
Do your feet point straight forward when you squat or do you turn them out? I like to turn my feet out so my heels don't come off the ground as I descend. You should try and push your knees out, not forward and you should try and push your butt back.
When your feet are turned out and not forward, it takes pressure off your knees and puts more overload on the larger muscles of the trunk. What footwear do you use? I like to use a flat footed shoe, I find the olympic lifting shoes with a heel, put way too much pressure on knees and ruin my line for squatting. It works for some olympic lifters, but I don't like the stress on my knee.
Also do you squat with a low bar placement or high bar? With a low bar placement the bar should sit underneath your traps and over your rear deltoids. If you have never squatted this way before it can feel very strange, after you spend time squatting this way over time your balance will be much better and you will be able to handle greater weights.
Also, where you place your hands can improve balance, a wider grip suits larger lifters and they tend to be more evenly distributed on the bar. I'm a middleweight, I like to take a narrow grip to suit my frame, I sit very upright when I squat and keep my head up all the way through the lift. If your looking around or you look down, your balance again will be affected.

Artist's portrait of Kate Moss dazzles
A few weeks ago, it seemed like you couldn't go to a local museum without coming across portraits of celebrities.
Think of Chris Rock, Serena Williams and other black luminaries posing for The Black List Project at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. Or Hayden Christensen, Ed Harris and other male actors having a boo-hoo for Sam Taylor-Wood's Crying Men series while David Beckham snoozed on film for Taylor-Wood's survey at the Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston.
Even Blaffer Gallery got in the act with early-1980s photos of actress-singer Pia Zadora and rocker Billy Squier in Celebutants, Groupies, and Friends: A Photographic Legacy From the Andy Warhol Foundation, my favorite of the three shows.
When half the city didn't have power post-Ike, the museums' celeb fever served as a makeshift alternative to cable, but I was glad to see it subside. So I was less than thrilled to hear that the centerpiece of Iconic Heroes, a group show of photographic work by a dream team of blue-chip artists at Barbara Davis Gallery, was a Chuck Close portrait of Kate Moss.
That changed the moment I walked into the gallery. While seeing the perfectly capable portraiture of Taylor-Wood and Timothy Greenfield-Sanders — photographer of The Black List Project — didn't feel much more special than flipping through it in a magazine, there is no substitute for experiencing Close's Kate (2006) in person.
While Greenfield-Sanders sometimes seems to coast on his subjects' iconic status — sure, Toni Morrison looks commanding and majestic, but I've never seen a photo in which she didn't — Close goes above and beyond the challenge of making us see Moss as we've never seen her, without resorting to gimmicks, as Taylor-Wood did by asking her actors to cry for the camera.
He does so by bringing something both old and new to portraiture. Moss is shot straight-on, head-and-shoulders against a black background in a 19th-century daguerrotype image.
But instead of printing the image on paper, Close translates it using digital weaving techniques to create a 103-by-79-inch jacquard tapestry made up of 17,800 threads.
The combination of scale and texture, along with the image's mix of crisply detailed and blurry areas, gives Kate a palpability that stops you in your tracks. Once you've caught your breath and moved closer, you get lost in the subtleties of woven light and shadow.
Stand back again, and your attention returns to Moss, whom Close has apparently shot without makeup, zits and all. She's haunting and radiant. If you've never understood fashion photographers' obsession with her, you do now.
The tapestry floats like a classic Mark Rothko painting, but it's grown out of Close's decades of transposing photographic portraits to paintings, using grids to take images apart and then reconstruct them.
The fact that this time the reconstruction happened by digital methods rather than by hand doesn't leave the viewer cold — just the opposite. Close's tapestry portrait of Moss, along with those of artists Kiki Smith and Lyle Ashton, which flank Kate, feel at least as intimate as anything he's done on canvas. This is what a deep engagement with portraiture looks like.
Close's tapestries are joined by a few of his own prints and several by Smith and Ashton, along with photos by Robert Rauschenberg, Jenny Holzer and Robert Longo.
Longo's 1980s photographs of suit-clad men on New York rooftops served as the basis for his classic Men in the Cities series of life-size drawings. One isn't quite sure whether they're ecstatic or tortured, dancing or possessed by demons, perhaps because Longo reportedly pelted his subjects with tennis balls and rocks or pulled on ropes attached to their legs.
Seeing these Wall Street-types writhing can't help but feel timely.

"This video has been in my mind off and on over the years. With the Otakon 2010 deadline looming large, it got me to make this video so that I'd have something new to show."
Yeah, that's what I'd said shortly before Otakon about this video. All of a sudden, this video wins 2nd Place in the Action category! Shocking to me, I'm sure.
I really did have this idea for this video for many years. Again, only recently did I really put pen to paper and sketch out what I wanted for this video, and finally finished the timeline in time for me to export a contest-ready entry for Otakon. Apparently this video seems to endear a lot of folks with the classic '90s OVA and an irresistibly catchy remix of a 1978 Japanese live-action crime drama. Really, the Gunsmith Cats OP reminded me so much of "Bad City", and I wanted to make a video out of it. To my genuine surprise, it's done very well at conventions and other places I've had it shown at. Thanks for your support!
Sadly, the Gunsmith Cats DVDs are out of print, and Section 23 let its license on it expire. Still, it's a great short anime, along with its spiritual sequel, Riding Bean, available from AnimEigo. Well worth checking out.
The song is a remix of "Bad City" by Readymade 524, which appeared on the original 5-key Beatmania series (6th Mix) years ago. They are famous for their remix of the 1972 Lupin III theme song, used in Big Big Truck's "Failed Experiments" AMV.
Again, enjoy this fun little romp.

The Silver Boot Series has always come equipped with a punch line, but this year it might be adorned with an American League West pennant.
For decades the Rangers and Astros played in separate leagues, never noticing each other's plight other than the occasional hiring away from another a pitcher and front-office guru named Nolan Ryan.
Then came baseball's interleague play and, in 2013, the Astros' move to the American League.
Sports Connection
Connecting you to your favorite North Texas sports teams as well as sports news around the globe.
The Silver Boot always felt like a fabricated tool to push a rivalry that just wasn't.
From 2007-13 the Rangers dominated the Lone Star Series while making consecutive World Series. In '13, in fact, Texas went an astounding 17-2 against Houston, which at the time was the worst team in baseball.
Don't look now, but the Rangers-Astros' series will reward the winner with much more than 10-gallon braggin' rights.
Around Memorial Day the Rangers were languishing at 17-23, a good 9.5 games behind Houston in the standings. But with Labor Day in the rear-view mirror, things have changed. Led by Yovani Gallardo's pitching and Adrian's Beltre hitting, the Rangers beat the Mariners on holiday Monday while the Astros lost to the A's.
With less than a month remaining in the regular season, the Rangers trail by only two games. They have 26 games remaining – seven of those against the Astros (beginning with a huge four-game series next week in Arlington).
The Cowboys regularly beat up the Oilers and – save for their inaugural game upset win – the Texans have always been the step-brothers. In basketball the Mavs' biggest rival has always been the Spurs, but their relations with the Rockets has grown contentious in the last year or so.
Can the Rangers catch Houston? Sure. Since trailing by almost 10 games in late May they have gone 55-41. The Astros are only 27-39 on the road and they're on a 10-game trip that concludes in Arlington. And the Rangers – now that they've learned how to beat Seattle – have a favorable remaining schedule with 12 games left against the Mariners and A's.
The Astros aren't accustomed to pressure baseball after Labor Day. They've been in first place since late April but at this point they have to fear being overtaken by a more experienced team.
It's going to be refreshing to see Houston and Texas play September games that are meaningful – to both teams. And all of baseball.
A native Texan who was born in Duncanville and graduated from UT-Arlington, Richie Whitt has been a mainstay in the Metroplex media since 1986. He's held prominent roles on all media platforms including newspaper (Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Dallas Observer), radio (105.3 The Fan) and TV (co-host on TXA 21 and numerous guest appearances, including NBC 5). He lives in McKinney with his wife, Sybil, and two very spoiled dogs.

Prince Philip Movement
The Prince Philip Movement is a religious sect followed by the Kastom people around Yaohnanen village on the southern island of Tanna in Vanuatu. It is a cargo cult of the Yaohnanen tribe,[1][2] who believe that Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, the consort to Queen Elizabeth II, is a divine being.
According to ancient Yaohnanen tales, the son of a mountain spirit travelled over the seas to a distant land. There, he married a powerful woman and in time would return to them. He was sometimes said to be a brother to John Frum.
The people of the Yaohnanen area believe that Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, the consort to Queen Elizabeth II, is a divine being. They had seen the respect accorded to Queen Elizabeth II by the colonial officials and concluded that her husband, Prince Philip, must be the son referred to in their legends.
It is unclear just when this belief came about, but it was probably some time in the 1950s or 1960s. It was strengthened by the royal couple's official visit to Vanuatu in 1974, when a few villagers had the opportunity to actually see Prince Philip from a distance. The Prince was not then aware of the sect, but it was brought to his attention several years later by John Champion, the British Resident Commissioner in the New Hebrides.[3]
Champion suggested that Prince Philip send them a portrait of himself. He agreed and sent a signed official photograph. The villagers responded by sending him a traditional pig-killing club called a nal-nal. In compliance with their request, the Prince sent a photograph of himself posing with the club. Another photograph was sent in 2000. All three photographs were kept by Chief Jack Naiva,[4][5] who died in 2009.[2]
Anne, Princess Royal, visited Tanna in October 2014.[6][7][8] She is the only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. She had visited Vanuatu in 1974, but had not previously travelled to the island.[9]
On 27 September 2007, Channel 4 broadcast Meet the Natives, a reality show about five Tanna men from the Prince Philip Movement on a visit to Britain. Their trip culminated in an off-screen audience with Philip, where gifts were exchanged, including a new photograph of the Prince.[10]
The sect in the news[edit]
In 2010 Australian journalist Amos Roberts visited Tanna and reported on the locals' celebration of Philip's 89th birthday, for SBS's magazine program Dateline.[1]
In 2011 the people of Yaohnanen village were featured in an episode of the second series of An Idiot Abroad with Karl Pilkington.[11]
In 2013, Man Belong Mrs Queen, a book by British writer Matthew Baylis, investigated the historical and anthropological origins of the movement and provided an account of the author's own stay on the island of Tanna.[12]
Kate Humble talks to locals about the movement in Kate Humble: Into the Volcano, a TV documentary about Mount Yasur broadcast on BBC Two in January 2015.[13]
In 2018, the Australian podcast Zealot documented the Prince Philip Movement in episode 13.[14]

Growing up in an Asian household, the concept of brunch does not include pancakes, french toasts, and obscene amounts of bacon. Instead, my family goes for Dim Sum almost every weekend. When we moved here several years ago, this weekly affair became a monthly treat given the rarity of good dim sum restaurants. Eventually, I just went cold turkey because no Dim Sum is better than bad dim sum.
Dim sum refers to a style of Cantonese food prepared as small bite-sized or individual portions of food traditionally served in small steamer baskets or on small plates. Dim sum is also well-known for the unique way it is served in some restaurants, whereby fully cooked and ready-to-serve dim sum dishes are carted around the restaurant for customers to choose their orders while seated at their tables.
Eating dim sum at a restaurant is usually known in Cantonese as going to "drink tea" (yum cha), as tea is typically served with dim sum.
Dim Sum is like tapas on steroids. The difference is that the excitement of the unknown and creativity is what draws people to tapas, whereas the comforting familiar taste is the most appealing factor of Dim Sum. I actually do not enjoy the traditional Hong Kong way of serving Dim Sum. Carts are pushed around and you take what you see on the cart. This is the way King Tin serves their Dim Sum. Although King Tin does offer the option to order from the menu, most tend to just pick off items on the carts.
Everyone has their favorites when it comes to Dim Sum and when you go out specially for it, you WANT TO have that item. The whole process always goes like this for me when Dim Sum gets served from carts:
- Yay we are having Dim Sum!
- Oh no, it's the cart. It's okay, I will rely on my will power to wait for my favorite XXX item.
- Okay I will just eat a little of whatever that is on the next cart.
- Oh my god so full.
- DAMNIT XXX IS ON THE NEXT CART! Okay I will just try a little of that… after all I came specially for it!
- I hate Dim Sum.
Seriously… no Dim Sum carts for me.
About a year ago, Hot Wheels Chinese Restaurant (HWCR) opened on Victoria Street. It quickly became the talk of the town because –
It turns out that the owners of HWCR used to own Crystal Palace in Uptown Waterloo. They then opened Hot Wheels Tea House (more Taiwanese influence) and Hot Wheels Chinese Restaurant (more Cantonese influence) shortly after selling Crystal Palace. The drive-through was left behind by the previous restaurant and the owners never bothered taking it down.
I guess too many people started asking for take-out Dim Sum – which hey, seems like a legit idea to me – they decided to do a revamp of the restaurant.
Sam's Chinese Kitchen sounds so boring compared to Hot Wheels!
Dim Sum all day every day.
First Impression:
I have never been inside the original HWCR but the current decor of SCR looks good.
Of course, the classy decor must be accompanied by the classic Chinese restaurants' plastic table covers.
Prices for Dim Sum are as follows:
Extra-large plate – $4.75
Large plate – $4.25
Medium plate – $3.95
Small plate – $3.15
Tea – $0.60 per person
The problem is that the sizes are not standardized so a medium on one dish could be different from a medium of another. For example, a medium siew mai serves four, while a medium BBQ pork bun only serves three. We had eight people and definitely over-ordered. It would be nice if they could indicate the number of servings for each item instead of going with the generic small/medium/large. However, one commendable thing is that their menu is a concise one-page with separates into various categories of dim sum (ie. steamed, deep-fried, congee, dessert etc).
On the Table for Maple: (For a party of eight)
- 1 extra-large
- 9 large
- 15 medium
- 7 small
- 8 teas
Total bill before tip = $146
The following are my standard orders whenever I go for Dim Sum.
Steamed Dim Sum
Pork Siew Mai
Shrimp Har Gow
Sticky rice in lotus leaves – This is a "large" but only comes with two.
Often used to judge the quality of a Dim Sum place, the BBQ pork bun passed our test as it had a lovely bun to pork ratio instead of being all bun and no pork.
Shrimp rice noodles. We also ordered BBQ pork rice noodles but the shrimp was much more succulent and tasty.
Deep-Fried/Pan-Fried Dim Sum
Wu Kok (Fried Taro Dumplings) – my absolute favourite!
If I went to Dim Sum and did not have this I might as well have just gone for pancakes.
We ignored the idea that sweets should be eaten after savoury and had them altogether. They good as the savoury though.
Sesame ball with lotus paste
Egg custard tart
I felt that the egg tarts were the weakest of all. The crust was not pillowy and flaky, and the custard lacked fragrance.
Custard buns!
Eight of us went and each brought home some leftovers.
If you are a loyal customer of Crystal Palace, you would have been able to tell the drop in standards after it was sold. I am definitely relieved that the owners are still cooking in this region. Sam's Chinese Kitchen feels like a breath of fresh air, and definitely adds some competition to the Kitchener Dim Sum scene, which has been dominated by Cameron Chinese Seafood Restaurant for years.

When you're hungover and you don't want to move, but you have things to do so you get up and go. That's the kind of day I had here.
Kickin my roshes, which recently became my go-to shoes. This jacket is great because it reminds you of the fashion decades ago. It's comfy (and pink!) and great for a cool summer day. The indent between the two colors in the front remains and classic and much more abstract than a simple two-tone jacket all around.
Often when I'm too lazy and want to accessorize, I try to through in a bow and the one in this picture is straight from Korea. It's a light metal wire, making it easy to twist around my neck and I can easily angle the top any way I desire.
Finally, I added a touch of blue just to contrast against all the warmer colors.

How to Save the Earth?
The moment we are born, we start to compare, and race against humans for our individual progress. In this race, we keep running and running and we forget who we are and what we came here for.
Life is meant to be lived and not compared. We all are given the status of human beings and that itself makes us Equal. We have all attained that status then, WHY run and tire us out mentally and physically? Why don't we try to think about something else other than US since ultimately the circle of life will come back to us?
How about we race to save our planet?
If we all unite and take steps to make the necessary changes to save earth's resources, we could make this planet a better place for us and for our future generation.
Why don't we run for some motive such as saving our planet from Global warming? We have to just tweak our lifestyle a little bit and try to accommodate with the minimum rather than getting hold of all the things we need to survive.
Most men love challenges, right?
Then why don't we try to live in a civilized world with the pretense that we are camping out in the woods. Let's us think of the time when we go camping and we can survive those 2 nights without the comforts of city life. In fact, we all come back with a smile on our face and are rejuvenated.
Sure, living with nature always helps the mental being of a person but besides that we were without the clutter of our everyday life, which we depend on for every small thing. We learn to accommodate and we learn to be happy with our minimum resources
Ways to save our planet
We can make subtle changes in our life such as:-
- Limit the use of water. Man should try to limit the use of Water by being aware when the tap is ON and try to conserve the usage of water. By using Cold water, one is limiting the use of Electricity, which helps our environment.
- Let us try to plan our trip when using the car ,which will help reduce green house gas emissions by an average of 1590 pounds per year.
- We are very smart humans thus, need to keep our self active to stay smart and that can be achieved by some physical exercise so, let's try to opt to walk or ride a bicycle to work, school or any place that is possible.
- Carpooling also helps the human being to commute faster and since humans are social animals, they will get company in the car while driving which will help them keep entertained talking to a live person rather than listening to the radio all alone. Every Car NOT on the road makes a difference.
- Recycling can help reduce pollution and also help the conservation of our resources so, think twice before you dump the can of soda. Make sure you put it in the Recycle bin.
- Compost helps reducing the amount of solid waste we produce in a year so, by reducing the amount of solid waste we produce will help take up less space in landfills and our tax dollars can work somewhere else. Compost also helps make a natural fertilizer.
Let us try to adapt the 3 R's in our lives:--Re-use, Reduce, Recycle. This will help our Planet, which in turn will help us sustain on it for generations to come.
Let us all unite to race for our Mother Earth. So, Let's all line up and let us start our Race...Ready Set GO!!
There are various ways to create awareness amongst the children about our planet. This hub talks about the different and creative activities that the kids can do for fun and be conscious of their HOME.
- Earth Day April 22nd: Activities For Your Children
Earth Day is April 22nd; here is a list of activities for children that will help them to understand the environment and help them to become stewards of the Earth.
- Some More Cool Earth Day Activities For Children
Earth Day is April 22nd and here are some great activities for the children in your life.
I definitely voted up.
Words of truth.. words of wisdom... an amazing hub.. a point to think about...!
great work Ruchira..!
You make some good points. However, we need to also get the bigger polluters on board too. I heard that the total UK emissions is about 1% of China's, while I don't know how accurate that is, we need the big players and businesses to stop focusing on only maximizing profits and to join the fight to make this a success!
Shared, up and interesting.
Hello Ruchira,
Your tribute to Mother Earth is wonderful. Voted up, useful and beautiful! Loved your write up as usual. Sharing it socially.
Words of wisdom my dear friend. I will link these on my two hubs about Earth Day!
Beautiful hub with lots of ideas to save our Earth. However, with water found on Mars, we should be highlighting these ideas for Mars now :)
Voted up
Nicely said.. we keep running and running. If we stop for a moment, sometime in our life and think where we are running and what we are doing, fear comes in. In that process, some transform, some start running again to forget themselves.
Hi Ruchira.
Thanks for this hub.
Have you heard of the book called Not-Two is Peace by the
World-Friend,Adi Da?.
It talks about "Co-operation + Tolerance = Peace".
It includes what we need to do for the earth as
we are all in one boat.
Also, i have to ask,does your name mean Bright?.
Happy 2011!
Carpooling for the social benefits is a unique way to present that opportunity. Well done!

As I watched the 2008 presidential campaign, …and dealt with a small health crisis of my own this past summer,… and as I now watch the downfall of Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich ("provider" of a healthcare safety net for every Illinois child a few years back)… I've been trying to get my brain around this sticky problem of how to keep people well, and how to pay for help when they get sick.
Thankfully my own rear end is covered (literally… and trust me, you wouldn't want to see it un-covered). So is my family's, by a medical plan through my wife's employer (a public school district). But I'm acutely aware (pun intended) of the millions of others, including people in my own extended family, who are tightrope-walking that tenuous thread, praying they don't get sick, or they may go broke.
I've always been inclined to mistrust and dislike insurance companies, medical or otherwise. Think about it logically. The whole concept is just weird: paying in advance, for nothing in hand (at the moment), so that they can then make money with my money for a few years. Or lose it, like AIG did. Then maybe, if I follow all the rules, they'll pay to fix my car, or clean out my clogged arteries when there's a problem. After I pay the deductible, that is…
I combine the car thing with the medical thing quite intentionally, too, because if you look at it from a technical perspective, a doctor is not much more than a mechanic for our body, or a plumber for our soul-house. The circulatory system is certainly more complex than a power steering system, and the stakes in medicine are literally life-and-death once in awhile. So I'm not saying a doctor or an X-Ray tech shouldn't get paid. We need quality people, who know their job and do it well, and get paid enough to make all that prior training and hard work worthwhile.
Yet we've elevated the medical and pharmaceutical industries to such a high position of perceived importance that we're now having a hard time paying the fee for what the free market says they deserve. We pay up-front, to prop up an entire industry, one that currently makes up 17% of the entire Gross Domestic Product (according to the National Coalition on Health Care …where there are dozens more startling statistics, if you dare to click through). It's like we're being held hostage, just for having bodies that occasionally develop problems.
Here's how the economic numbers break down: the median income in the U.S. these days is around $42,000. Meanwhile, a typical healthcare plan for a family of four costs $12,000 or more. Do the math. That's 30% of one's income for healthcare coverage, based upon some future "what if". It's basically a "wellness tax", though it's usually paid to a private company.
For our family, the cost (including Medicare) is around 18% of gross wages. It's set at that price partly because we're supporting all the other folks in the system who DO need those expensive MRI's and specialist consults, and partly due to the possibility (according to some number-cruncher) that eventually we too will need those services (at which point they will cost much more — since inflation when it comes to medical costs is twice the rate of inflation on everything else).
Oh, and by the way, we're the lucky ones! I know 18% is not that big a deal compared to what it costs some folks. Our income is significantly higher than that $42K figure above. We don't get sick all that often, and when we do, it's not very severe. So we have good genes. And we have dental.
I don't want to sound ungrateful here, but even that 18% is not a number I'm comfortable with, when I know how many physicians and pharmaceutical executives are living high on the hog. Not to mention how many car mechanics are among those uninsured or underinsured — the people walking the tightrope, gambling with their health. For me, it's about basic human values, not numbers. It's about community, and cooperation, and "Who is my neighbor?", and "I'll pay a little more, if you'll take a little less than this exorbitant asking price."
In other words, it's about power: who's got it, who doesn't.
Maybe it's all those lobbyists. Maybe it's the big-time contractors making beaucoup bucks putting fancy new wings on the already fancy (yet legally not-for-profit? how's that work?) local hospital. Whoever is coming out a winner in this, I'm tired of looking the other way and accepting it as simply the status quo, the way things work. They have to work better. Soon.

In History
Pacific Pottery's Lattie Legacy
Melvin J. Lattie was Pacific Clay's sales director in the 1930s. His son, Jim Lattie, later became a Pacific Pottery collector. As part of a set purchased from Jim Lattie's estate in 2016, I was able to pick up Melvin's black leather briefcase from the 30s – now a prized possession in my Pacific collection. Shown next to a photo of Jim Lattie from the late 1930s – parked on a Pacific Pottery vase.

Yes, Tottenham aren't in the Champions League playoffs. Not in the group stages and not in the playoffs. It's probably a good thing anyway, given that they have Jermaine Defoe as their sole striker, and they sold him in 2008 (borrowed but true). Not a Betfair Champions League recommended pick, then.
Let's look at the teams that still have a chance to be playing in the Champions League this season (and raking in all that cash UEFA is doling out like a corrupt mafia boss.

Pyroto mountain is a web site interactive game where people log in under a "wizard" identity, answer increasingly difficult trivia questions for power and status, post messages to each other, and occasionally wield "spells" that can increase or decrease others' power and status. The name of the game is positive interaction and the community of friends that is what gives the site its appeal.I made it to Level 1. So far it looks like an interesting place to visit. A cross between Who Wants To Be A Millionare and Adventure. We'll see.

Compliance of Ordinance No. 1664 with the formal requirements
Was the enactment of Ordinance No. 1664 within the corporate powers of the LGU of the City of Cebu?
The answer is in the affirmative. Indeed, with no issues being hereby raised against the formalities attendant to the enactment of Ordinance No. 1664, we presume its full compliance with the test in that regard. Congress enacted the LGC as the implementing law for the delegation to the various LGUs of the State's great powers, namely: the police power, the power of eminent domain, and the power of taxation. The LGC was fashioned to delineate the specific parameters and limitations to be complied with by each LGU in the exercise of these delegated powers with the view of making each LGU a fully functioning subdivision of the State subject to the constitutional and statutory limitations.
In particular, police power is regarded as "the most essential, insistent and the least limitable of powers, extending as it does 'to all the great public needs.'"20 It is unquestionably "the power vested in the legislature by the constitution, to make, ordain and establish all manner of wholesome and reasonable laws, statutes and ordinances, either with penalties or without, not repugnant to the constitution, as they shall judge to be for the good and welfare of the commonwealth, and of the subject of the same."21 According to Cooley: "[The police power] embraces the whole system of internal regulation by which the state seeks not only to preserve the public order and to prevent offences against itself, but also to establish for the intercourse of citizens with citizens, those rules of good manners and good neighborhood which are calculated to prevent the conflict of rights and to insure to each the uninterrupted enjoyment of his own, so far as it is reasonably consistent with the right enjoyment of rights by others."22
In point is the exercise by the LGU of the City of Cebu of delegated police power. In Metropolitan Manila Development Authority v. Bel–Air Village Association, Inc.,23 the Court cogently observed:
It bears stressing that police power is lodged primarily in the National Legislature. It cannot be exercised by any group or body of individuals not possessing legislative power. The National Legislature, however, may delegate this power to the President and administrative boards as well as the lawmaking bodies of municipal corporations or local government units. Once delegated, the agents can exercise only such legislative powers as are conferred on them by the national lawmaking body. (emphasis supplied)
The CA opined, and correctly so, that vesting cities like the City of Cebu with the legislative power to enact traffic rules and regulations was expressly done through Section 458 of the LGC, and also generally by virtue of the General Welfare Clause embodied in Section 16 of the LGC.24
Section 458 of the LGC relevantly states:chanRoblesvirtualLawlibrary
Section 458. Powers, Duties, Functions and Composition. – (a) The sangguniang panlungsod, as the legislative body of the city, shall enact ordinances, approve resolutions and appropriate funds for the general welfare of the city and its inhabitants pursuant to Section 16 of this Code and in the proper exercise of the corporate powers of the city as provided for under Section 22 of this Code, and shall:
x x x
(5) Approve ordinances which shall ensure the efficient and effective delivery of the basic services and facilities as provided for under Section 17 of this Code, and in addition to said services and facilities, shall:
x x x
(v) Regulate the use of streets, avenues, alleys, sidewalks, bridges, parks and other public places and approve the construction, improvement repair and maintenance of the same; establish bus and vehicle stops and terminals or regulate the use of the same by privately–owned vehicles which serve the public; regulate garages and operation of conveyances for hire; designate stands to be occupied by public vehicles when not in use; regulate the putting up of signs, signposts, awnings and awning posts on the streets; and provide for the lighting, cleaning and sprinkling of streets and public places;
(vi) Regulate traffic on all streets and bridges; prohibit encroachments or obstacles thereon and, when necessary in the interest of public welfare, authorize the removal of encroachments and illegal constructions in public places; (emphasis supplied)
The foregoing delegation reflected the desire of Congress to leave to the cities themselves the task of confronting the problem of traffic congestions associated with development and progress because they were directly familiar with the situations in their respective jurisdictions. Indeed, the LGUs would be in the best position to craft their traffic codes because of their familiarity with the conditions peculiar to their communities. With the broad latitude in this regard allowed to the LGUs of the cities, their traffic regulations must be held valid and effective unless they infringed the constitutional limitations and statutory safeguards.
