The Pay Your Age event at Build-a-Bear was hugely popular, with hundreds of families queuing for hours to get a bargain bear. Luckily you don't need to queue like that again, as Build-a-Bear have launched a new pay your age scheme called Count Your Candles, with a special Birthday Treat Bear and a birthday ceremony in store!
Each year in the month of your child's birthday they will be able to go into a store and get the special Birthday Bear and just pay £1 for each year of their age. So a four year old will pay just £4, a five year old £5 and so on. These bears normally cost £14, so it's a great offer to pay your age instead.
This is an in store offer only, and you need to be a member of the free Build-a-Bear Bonus Club, and you can register online here*.
As well as the cut-price bear your child can get more extra treats when they collect their Birthday Treat Bear. They will get to pop in an extra special birthday heart, and have a birthday ceremony with a birthday hat and sticker, ring the birthday bell, get to take a picture with the birthday cake prop, and even have Happy Birthday sung to them.
You can find full details of the Count Your Candles promotion here*.

BRIE LARSON has dispelled any notion of competitiveness between the brightest young actresses of her generation, explaining how fellow Oscar winners Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone supported her as she was promoting her Academy Award-winning film Room last year.
© Rex
"I felt lonely and bad sometimes. I was embarrassed to keep talking about myself," Larson told Vanity Fair about her tireless promotion of the film all around the world. "Emma wrote this beautiful e-mail out of nowhere, and then one day Jen sent me a text message after she saw Room, and we started talking."
Read more: Brie Larson: Girl On Film
"That group of friends saved my life," she continued. "I was able to talk with them about everything that was going on in my life, and it was with people who had been through it before and are also hilarious. That support and acceptance was everything. I was home-schooled, so I didn't have friends that had the same interests as me, and I found it to be absolutely incredible."

The bond has remained strong, and this year Larson was able to reciprocate Stone's support as the latter scooped the Best Actress Oscar for her turn in La La Land, sharing an intimate moment of the pair backstage at the ceremony.

Trendspotters from the 2015 Summer Fancy Food Show identified popular flavor profiles that just might tantalize your taste buds and inspire ideas for your own new product development.
Flower Power
Floral notes such as rose, lavender and hibiscus made a memorable appearance in products such as Belvoir Fruit Farms Elderflower & Rose Lemonade, Masala Pop Saffron Rose Popcorn, Rogue Creamery La-Di-Da Lavender Cheese and Vosges Haut-Chocolat Blood Orange Hibiscus Caramel Marshmallows.
|Vosges Haut-Chocolat covers marshmallows in burnt sugar caramel with blood oranges and hibiscus flavors, chocolate and tops it with black salt.
Cocktail Culture
Spirits, wine, and beer inspire flavors and ingredient pairings like Bissell Maple Farm's Pappy & Company Bourbon Barrel-Aged Syrup, Brooklyn Brine Co. Hop-Pickles, Colonel Pabst All Malt Amber-Lager Worcestershire Sauce and L.A. Creamery The Manhattan.
L.A. Creamery's The Manhattan takes its cues from the classic cocktail with Rittenhouse Rye, brown butter toffee and bing cherries.
Go Ginger
An honorable mention, so to speak, goes to ginger as another hot flavor trend (pun intended) for 2015.
|Try the classic pairing of crystallized ginger dipped in dark chocolate or more adventurous pairings incorporated in DivineChocolate's Lemon Infused Ginger Turtles (top) or Coconut Ginger Popcorn Truffles from YoderPopcorn Click here to view the recipe from Yoder Popcorn.

'Economist' top growers' list for 2014 springs surprises
[SINGAPORE] Which economy will be the fastest-growing next year?
The answer will surprise most people. In fact, many will struggle to even pinpoint it on a world map.
It is South Sudan, going by The Economist's Top Growers for 2014 list. Occupying the top spot, this landlocked East African economy, which depends on oil for reportedly more than 90 per cent of its revenue, is predicted to grow its gross domestic product (GDP) by 35 per cent.
The resumption of oil production earlier this year - after it was halted in January 2012 over a disagreement with Sudan, from which it split in 2011 - will be a huge boost to its economic growth.
Ranked second on the magazine's 2014 list of 12 runaway economies is Mongolia, expected to clock another double-digit year with 15.3 per cent growth, buoyed by a mining boom.
And third is Macau, projected to achieve 13.5 per cent GDP growth thanks to its gaming and tourism revenues.
Indeed, The Economist's list features mostly resource-rich developing or until recently war-torn countries that one would not usually associate with high economic growth.
Speaking at The Economist's The World in 2014 gala dinner in Singapore on Tuesday, Mongolia's President Tsakhiagiin Elbegdorj expressed confidence that his country would continue to record sterling growth next year and thereafter, having already grown 17 per cent last year and 13 per cent this year.
"The World Bank and IMF (International Monetary Fund) predict that Mongolia can keep that pace of two-digit growth for the coming 20 years," he said.
The most surprising omission from the 2014 list was China, absent for the first time. Its GDP growth next year will not be shabby - at 7.3 per cent - but is still not good enough for it to be among the 12 fastest-growing economies.
Its maturing, slower-growing and middle-income economy is on a general downward trend as a new generation of leaders shifts the country from a focus on low-value-added exports and government stimulus to a self-sustaining economy powered by consumer demand, The Economist said.
China's Special Administrative Region of Macau sticks out among the top three for being neither resource-rich nor energy-producing, but its casino and tourism industries are expected to hum.
Another economy of note on the list is Bhutan, which is projected to grow by 9 per cent. More popularly known for its Gross National Happiness than its GDP, its economy is expected to do well from its hydroelectricity exports to India.
Although Singapore did not make it into the list of 12 for 2014, it is expected to achieve a sustainable growth rate of 3.8 per cent next year. The Economist expects the trend of rising trade within Asia, which has helped Singapore grow even as Western economies have struggled, to be rebalanced next year as emerging economies slow down and developed economies recover. It will be Singapore's opening to reap dividends from the surge in global trade.
The magazine said of Singapore: "Manufacturing, though less significant than in most Asian countries, will remain a force behind growth, and the economy will continue the climb back towards its robust growth rates of old."

Their Eyes Were Watching God
In the novel, Their Eyes Were Watching God, Janie leaves home and discovers how life is very unfair, but through the relationships she makes, she is able to learn how to be an individual and make decisions that lead her to happiness.
There are three very important meaningful themes in the novel, judgment, relationships, and sexism. All of these things are created into a metaphor that the author uses, which is the pear tree. The tree signifies the main character, Janie's, life. For example, a new relationship could be a new blossom, which would grow as the marriage would. The blossom could die, once the marriage is divorced. Janie "saw her life like a great tree in leaf with the things suffered, things enjoyed, things done and undone" (8). When Janie comes back to her hometown after Tea Cake dies, the pear tree would just start growing its leaves again, because her life is just starting.
In Janie's first marriage to Logan Killicks, she discovers how she should be careful about choosing her men. She realizes how she loves to be free. She also realizes how he never really loved her, because "long before the year was up, Janie noticed that her husband had stopped talking in rhymes to her. He had ceased to wonder at her long black hair and finger it" (26). Janie would do anything to get away from this marriage and she figured out how much she wanted to when she ran away with Joe.
Being with Joe was very unfair, because of the way she treated her. He controlled her thoughts and made forced her to put her hair up so no other guy would look at it. He acted like Janie belonged to him. In the relationship Janie grows, and later back talks to Joe. When this leads to their emotional separation, that's when her individualism grows. Janie became stronger after this relationship because of being held like a captive the whole time. This is the first time Janie was all alone. She "cried all night under...

Fanatic Omes:
- Robbo (Laura Robson), who played an opponent with exactly the same outfit for the second time in a row, failes to capitalise on her big chance. She just wasn't solid enough off the ground. Her concentration needs work but she's only 17 - it's allowed. There are good enough signs for the future. It give me so much respect for Masha (who totally owned her 2nd round match, 6-1 6-1 against Anastasiya Yakimova) - winning her first Slam at 16.
- Muzz, sporting an EXTREME MAKEOVER seemed to smooth out the couple of kinks in his game during his first round match. Credit to Somdev taking it to him in the first set. He'll be happy with how he's doing - lots of vintage Andy moments and some nice aggressive forehand play.
- Venus pulling out of the USO with Sjogren's syndrome just sucks hard. I liked it better when I pretended she was pregnant. Her withdrawal means she's now out of the top 100. Soderling also withdrew due to illness. Stop it guys.
- American teenage girls be killin 'em - Christina McHale upset Marion Bartoli big time. All hail McHale! She's the USO's American story and earns her spot tomorrow night on Ashe against Kirilenko. Can she handle the big stage? Only time will tell. And how bout Sloane Stephens huh? Kept pressure on Peer all through the match and held her nerve to serve it out. Oooh oooh and Vania King took out Jarmila Gajdosova, dropping only two games. Meanwhile even though she lost, Keys took it to Safarova big time. The wild, young thing is only 16 so she has an ok excuse for blowing the multiple leads she had in every set of the 3 set match. Is the future of American tennis with the ladies? It's looking likely.
- Delpo clearly had somewhere to be other than the tennis court as he obliterated Volandri in minus time. He's a dangerous dangerous man and most people's dark horse.
- Ok 14 retirements/walkovers -USO can we stop hurting out players?? Thankyouplease.
- Monfils. Oh Monfils. Hit 81 winners and 81 unforced errors during his match against JCF. Can we coin a new phrase? - "That's so LaMonf". He's just not gonna change is he? Phenomenal win from Ferrero though - talk about 'still got it'.
- Andy Roddick won ugly. Then talked ugly. But it can't be easy being at the brunt of all that "dude, retire soon, you old" speak.
- Didn't catch the match but apparently Tomic checks out when the going gets tough. If that's true, his attitude needs to change like yesterday otherwise all that talent and arrogance will go to waste. Nice in-roads for Marin Cilic though. He needs this.
- Do we even need to talk about how heads, shoulders, knees and toes Serena is above the rest of the field right now? I'm scared for the WTA.

A well-educated workforce, youthful population, opportunities and incentives for investment and friendly government policies are the advantages available to New Zealand investors and businesses in Fiji, a visiting Minister has said.
Trade, Tourism, Industry, Local Government, Housing and Community Development Minister Premila Kumar was in Auckland this week to meet with government officials, private sector companies, members of the New Zealand-Fiji Business Council and others to promote her country as an attractive destination for New Zealanders.
Hub of the Pacific
Speaking at a Reception organised in her honour by the Sydney based Consul General and Trade Commissioner (Australia and New Zealand) Zarak Khan, at the Office of the New Zealand Trade & Enterprise on Tuesday, March 19, 2019, she outlined the potential available for investors and commercial enterprises.
"Fiji is the hub of the Pacific, the hub of communications, trade, investment, tourism and innovation. We established our Trade Commission in Auckland about a year ago in Auckland's Central Business District, alongside major financial institutions, corporations and equally important, many Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)," she said.
Describing SMEs as the backbone of the New Zealand economy, Ms Kumar said that they are a driving force behind the strong New Zealand-Fiji trade, investment and economic relationship.
"We are neighbours with businesses and investment partners who are strategically positioned to engage with each other for the benefit of both economies," she said.
Earlier, Fiji Trade Commission New Zealand Manager Peter James Rudd introduced the Minister and spoke about the objectives of his Office in Auckland.
Increasing bilateral trade
Stating that New Zealand is among the top ten export destinations for Fiji over the past five years, Ms Kumar said that the two-way trade stood at F$ 992.2 million as at the end of 2017, with annual average exports at F$110 million.
"New Zealand has also been one of Fiji's top five import markets. In 2017, the highest number of imports were from New Zealand, valued at F$858.1 million," she said.
Ms Kumar said that her government has in place several 'pro-growth policies' and that the country has 'very ambitious Fijians in all sectors launching new businesses.'
"Our Trade Commission in New Zealand is geared to provide entrepreneurs the confidence and opportunity to market their products across New Zealand and also launch their services in the New Zealand market. Our Office will continue to be an invaluable source of information and guidance to New Zealander investors as well as New Zealand visitors who visit Fiji every year," she said.
Focus on Tourism
According to government statistics, about 200,000 New Zealanders visited Fiji in 2018, an increase of 7.7% over the previous year.
About 90% of these are repeat visitors and the government has plans to promote Fiji as a viable, alternate and good tourist destination in the coming years.
About the Trade Commission
Ms Kumar said that the Trade Commission will build on the enduring relationship between the two countries and create more exposure for 'Fijian Made' products and services, investments and Fiji as a business destination.
"The Trade Commission is making a significant impact for Fiji by showcasing and strengthening trade and investment relations with New Zealand. The Office has been working closely with stakeholders including our High Commission in Wellington, Industry, Trade and Tourism Ministry, Investment Fiji, New Zealand-Fiji Business Council, New Zealand Trade & Enterprise, New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, businesses and others," she said.
Promotional Programmes
Mr Khan said that while his Office is actively promoting trade and investment from New Zealand into Fiji, a major event in May will have a special focus on the objective.
"We have scheduled a 'Fiji Trade and Investment Roadshow' in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch in May 2019. Organised jointly by the Fiji Trade Commission and the New Zealand-Fiji Business Council, as well as the individual City Councils and Chambers of Commerce, the Minister will lead a mission of Fijian businesses and investment approval agencies at this event," he said.
Ms Kumar said, "We have a story in Fiji that the world wants to hear: a modern, dynamic economy in the throes of rapid economic growth and infrastructure development. We are a nation investing heavily in the education of its citizens and fielding a highly competitive, English-speaking workforce We are also a nation that enjoys stability, security and unity among its people and a nation eager for new investment, new industry and new opportunity."
Christchurch massacre victims
Earlier, Ms Kumar extended her condolences to the families of the victims of the Christchurch massacre on Friday, March 15, 2019.
"The Fijian Government strongly condemns this abhorrent act of terror against a peaceful community and reaffirms our shared beliefs in multiculturalism, tolerance, love and respect for one another irrespective of race, religion, gender and creed. It is a profoundly sad tragedy and as a nation, Fiji offers its prayers and support to all Kiwis and the Government of New Zealand at this difficult time," she said.

Selena Quintanilla cups are coming to convenience store chain Stripes later this week
More than 23 years after her tragic shooting death, fans are still eager to have anything and everything related to tejano superstar Selena Quintanilla. This week , Stripes convenience stores will sell two limited-edition Selena-branded cups in stores.
SELENA FOREVER: 23 years ago, Selena became a RodeoHouston legend with her performance at the Astrodome
Stores will start selling the cups at 9 a.m. on Saturday, April 7 for just $2.99. There is a limit of four cups per person while supplies last.
Proceeds from the sale of the cups will go to the Selena Foundation.
Stripes officials worked with Selena's sister, Suzette Quintanilla, to create the two designs for cups.
"I am excited to work with Stripes again on these beautiful commemorative cups of my sister featuring Selena's image. One of the designs this year is a watercolor painting created by New York artist Santi Siguenza, and it's also our official logo for the 2018 Fiesta de La Flor event," said Suzette Quintanilla, CEO of Q-Productions in a statement on Monday.
BAG IT UP: H-E-B Selena tote bags already listed on eBay
Stripes is a founding sponsor of Fiesta de la Flor, a two-day event held in Corpus Christi honoring the late recording sensation.
Anything branded with Selena's image has been highly sought-after as of late. It was just last month that special Selena bags were all the rage at H-E-B, selling out all across Texas and starting bidding wars on eBay.
In 2016 the MAC cosmetic company released a line of products inspired to the late singer's own personal style.

And, as life does, way led onto way & I did not get around to getting this blog published at that time.
Then... the whirlwind came... and that's what it felt like... a blur looking back now.
My dad was diagnosed with brain cancer.
This whirlwind began when my folks came over on July 15th, 2016. It was four days before our daughter's 10th birthday. I knew something was not right when my folks arrived. My dad's affect was flat. I had seen him a month prior and, then, 2 weeks before.
At the month prior, he was quiet. But I passed it off as he had been to the internment burial of his brother that passed a half a year before... he was not close with him, but nevertheless, I thought some emotions had been stirred, so I passed it off as such.
Then, two weeks later, I saw him when we went to pick up my son who had been visiting my folks/his grandparents. My dad had fallen while taking my son down their back wooded, somewhat steep yard that went down to a ravine. I thought the fall had him shaken (no, the fall was because of the brain cancer) and again passed off his behavior. Being a licensed psychotherapist, I like to think I pay a little more attention to behavior than your average person. Yet, at the time, these reasons looked reasonable for how he was acting.
Anyway, when my folks came for our daughter's birthday, it was obvious... he was flat, didn't spontaneously talk (which he normally would as he had his opinions), had difficulty getting up from our recliner, and had difficulty getting his night shorts on (my mom told me).
My husband and he were slated to go to Creede that next week... my dad was looking forward to it (from what he said, but couldn't tell emotion-wise). I thought that maybe my dad had had a stroke, but looking back, there were no single sided hindrances. My husband told him that he thinks he should get checked out before they leave as my dad admitted being unsteady. The next morning, we convinced him to let my husband take them to the ER... it went all downhill from there: CT scan, hospital referred him to downtown Houston. My dad had brain surgery three days later, on our daughter's 10th birthday. Brain surgery was to see if they could remove part of the 'tumor' and diagnose. They couldn't remove any tumor to speak of, but enough to diagnose. He has
My dad died six months later on January 16th, 2017, four days after our son's 7th birthday.
Those six months were, like I said, a blur to say the least. A lot happened and was going on with our family during that time;
- my husband had been out of work (during the time of the "oil business" employment bust)
- our daughter got & began raising several 4H turkeys
- school started for both our children; 1st and 5th grade
- our dog had been bred, got ultrasound, showing she didn't take (a blessing at the time)
- my mom had to have knee replacement surgery
- my husband had been in severe pain with his back (the worst he's ever experienced) and had to have back surgery
- my mom had to stay at a rehab home to get daily physical therapy for her knee
- because the first back surgery didn't get the job done, my husband had to have a second back surgery three weeks later, to the day
- my mom's birthday
- Thanksgiving (we enjoyed a 4H turkey)
- my husband, within 2-3 weeks of back surgery, started a new job
- our daughter had surgery to have her tonsils out
- my husband had to go out of the country
- we had our dog surgically bred again and she became pregnant
- our ceiling showed water damage & our chimney leaked resulting in a new roof in January
- Christmas
- my husband's birthday
- New Year's Eve
- our insurance coverages for home, both autos and Colorado all went up and had to be reassessed/changed
- our son's birthday
- forget all of the other bills, household chores, appointments for school & other, grocery shopping, regular daily life routines, etc. that happen...
It was an absolute blur and, looking back, it was ... I will say (and not for dramatic purposes)... it was surreal.
My dad was taken care of, in his home, mostly by my mom with the help of care givers. He died in his home, the way it was supposed to be.
I remember it clearly. My dad's bed was in the living room. My mom was asleep on the couch. My brother was doing work at the kitchen table. I was siting on the couch. I had been sitting there for some time. And I heard it, my dad's breathing changed. I knew. I was glad. And I sat there for a bit... to make sure .. and to take it in by myself .. before I woke my mom.
He died in his home... as he should have.
The following is what I wrote, said and had played at my dad's funeral:
So I have written this multiple times in my head… and my thoughts are always scattered about with what I would like to say to you all about my dad;
I thought about talking about…
· Stories…
· What kind of person my dad was…
· Lessons he taught ..or lived by…
The trouble is, there's a lifetime of things I could tell you. Hence, my quagmire.
So, I am stuck with picking a few or so… and I'll still probably talk too long --so a pre-emptive 'I'm sorry' :-~ as this may be disjointed and not the most cohesive thing you hear today.
Speaking of talking & communication, as many of you know, my dad was very laconic. He could take a situation and distill it down to its essential elements. I think this style of his was a major factor in contributing to our young (then) family's well being.
You may or may not know that my dad came from an alcoholic family. Suffice to say that his dad was a mean drunk. To top it off, my mom, as well came from an alcoholic family.
So, imagine… married 18 & 21 y/olds -both from dysfunctional families having a go at it… they were warned by more than one that they wouldn't make it. Well, they did and my hat's been off to them for a long time because of it. I have to say the greatest gift my dad gave me was treating my mom with dignity and respect –despite some rough times, he remained calm and acted as an emotional distillery, if you will, to get to the essentials and solve & resolve things as we grew as a family.
So, being laconic, distilling things down to their essential elements… Very fitting for our family and a very fitting way for being a Chem—E.
I always kind of wondered what my dad did… it was somewhat mysterious as he didn't talk a whole lot about it. Oh, I remember hearing names… some of which are here today, but I never really knew exactly what he did. As I got older, he would talk more… or maybe I just listened more. I remember it was a big deal (when I was older) that I got to go to his office, I saw certain pictures and such. Saw a picture of Colorado…
Side note here: for those of you that don't know, practically every summer growing up, our family went to Colorado. We would camp… yes in a TENT in Colorado… Colorado can have temps in the morning in the 30s during summer. You can get on the shady side of a mountain and you could be shivering… and if you're riding motorcycles, then you have a wind chill on top of it. I do remember riding in front of my dad on his seat right up by the tank thinking I was going to turn into an ice cube. Many times, we rode and camped with long time family friends; Jerry and Peggy Davis. We all had bikes (except me); my dad, Jerry, Miss Peg, my brother and mom rode their own bikes… yes, my mom rode a motorcycle --up in the mountains –along side sheer drop offs (I shudder to think of that now).
So, back to my dad's office; when I got to go, I saw pictures of Colorado, family and… I saw an essay that he had prominently displayed. It was called "The Trip is the Destination". It was, for a him, a theme, if you will, to live by. And he did.
While my dad was a "planner" ..oh, boy, was he. No stone unturned in going forward, no hasty decisions… yet, at the same time, I do not find that his 'planning' ruled him. He, indeed, seemed to enjoy the trip.
So I would like to share the essay that he has had displayed in his office, since I was a kid, up until…. it still sits displayed, in his office, at home:
The Trip is the Destination ~from The Station by Robert J. Hastings
(read The Trip….)
Tucked away in our subconscious is an idyllic vision. We see ourselves on a long trip that spans the continent. We are traveling by train. Out the windows we bring in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at a crossing, of cattle grazing on a distant hillside, of smoke pouring from a power plant, of row upon row of corn and wheat, of flatlands and valleys, of mountains and rolling hillsides, of city skylines and village halls.
But uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain day at a certain hour we will pull into the station. Bands will be playing and flags waving. Once we get there so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a complete jigsaw puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles, damning the minutes for loitering—waiting, waiting, waiting for the station.
"When we reach the station, that will be it!", we cry. "When I'm 18." "When I buy a new 450SL Mercedes Benz!" "When I put the last kid through college." "When I have paid off the mortgage!" "When I get a promotion." "When I reach the age of retirement, I shall live happily ever after!"
Sooner or later we must realize there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. The true joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream. It constantly outdistances us.
"Relish the moment" is a good motto, especially when coupled with Psalm 118:24: "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." It isn't the burdens of today that drive men mad. It is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow. Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today.
So stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot more often, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more, cry less. Life must be lived as we go along. The station will come soon enough...............................................................................
And it did come soon enough… it came too soon… that part bothers me because my son and daughter won't get to be around my dad.
Sorry… another Side Note: this might come as a surprise… and sound ..?? ..risqué… but, my dad had another child other than my brother & me. He had another son. Now, before I go on, please know that BY NO MEANS did this other son & my dad's relationship with him diminish the love he had for his own son. The heart simply can always hold/take on/have room for more love. This other son is my husband… who never had a wonderful father-figure… until my dad, he found that in him.
Kint and my dad worked on many projects together over the 29+ years
they've known they knew each other. My dad designed and had a cabin built in
Creede CO (camping got to be too cold)… well, on our honeymoon, they both and
others -no contractors- built the
garage to that cabin... over the years many projects were done together: our
property's fence, barn, shop, my dad's shed, 2 horse sheds, a utility building,
a covered porch on the Colorado cabin… collecting firewood in the mountains, they
cleared trees behind my dad's house, worked on cars together… the last project
they did together was adding an eve on the back of our barn a couple of months before
my dad was diagnosed (he was diagnosed in July).
As my husband, Kint, put it; In working/doing projects with my dad… Kint would dive in head first, while my dad would wade in slowly… one sped the other up so to speak, while the other slowed the other down. It just worked.
So, to our kids, my dad offered a balance to that of their own dad.
My dad enjoyed building things, was very hands-on for being so abstract chemical theory oriented. Our house -growing up always always was maintained in tip-top shape… if something squeaked, was out of kilter (even a tad) …. or if there was something that just didn't work the best he thought it could, he would fix it or improve upon it. Grass did not grow with things that needed to be done around the house.
In that vein, fixing things around the house… is just one of the gifts my dad gave to me… Others were;
· he was a man's man, so what did I do… married a man that could fix things b/c that' s what men do… and catch bugs …and get rid of dead gophers, rabbits, birds, lizards and snakes that the cat leaves for us.
· He also taught me to speak my mind –no, not directly, but from his example I'm sure.
· To ask questions… which I hear I can do in excess at times.
· Not to worry what others think,
· Be honest… my mom will tell you that I learned that one "to a fault".
· AND so many others, but I cannot leave out… Animals!! –We had animals! And to think some kids don't… I cannot imagine a life with no animals. Dogs: we always had a dog, & a cat …and then it happened… a horse! I had always wanted a horse.
You see, my dad had horses growing up. He and his mother would go to play-days together riding the different events; pole bending, flag race (which was a favorite of my dad's). His mom would sew special matching outfits/shirts for both of them.
Just a few months before my dad was sick … my daughter was staying over at my folks place. She came home telling me of "grandpa getting teary". She went on to tell of how he was telling her a story of his early days with his mom and him riding horses and going to play days and how his mom sewed intricate outfits and all. He was telling Emma, my daughter, about a particular time; regaling his sewn shirt & how he won several speed events on this real fast horse …and he got teary remembering those special times.
My dad wasn't much of a story teller… I guess it wouldn't have been my dad if he was, but I would have liked to have heard more stories.
Lastly, my dad had many music artists he liked; Buddy Holly, John Denver, Anne Murray, The Righteous Brothers, Reba McEntire, & even Celine Dion, but driving to Colorado every summer… we always heard Neil Diamond. I can sing every word of every song from Neil Diamond's Hot August Night Album.
Side Note: I absolutely love Neil Diamond to this day… in fact, my son's teachers have heard him sing the chorus to "Cherry Cherry" at his little Christian school- thank goodness he didn't know the actual words to the chorus and it was sung in gibberish.
So, while this song coming up is dedicated to another man… it could just as easily be dedicated to my dad.
To end, if I had to be super laconic (ha!) in describing my dad… and had to pick only one word, it would be:
Enjoy the trip.
(Reba McEntire video song: 'Just Like Them Horses')
She held him close, then she kissed his face
He said it just has to be this way
Yours is the heart I'll always keep
I'm not gone even if I leave
If you love me, don't you be afraid
To look in my eyes and open up the gate
Then watch me ride beneath a newborn sun
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
He said, Chockie Mountain is calling me
Gonna take a walk up where I can sing
Turn and face that western wind
Oh, and I'll be home again
If you love me, don't you be afraid
To look in my eyes and open up the gate
Then watch me ride beneath a newborn sun
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
Oh, just like them horses
She held his hand, he took one last breath
Then she walked out to the front porch step
Stared at the sky, tears on her face
And she swore she could hear him say
If you love me, don't you be afraid
To look in my eyes and open up the gate
Then watch me ride beneath a newborn sun
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
Just like them horses
When it's time to run
When it's time to run
When it's time to run
Now it's time to run
Just like them horses, ooh
Just like them horses

WESTWOOD, Mass. – For the fifth straight year, MIT has been honored with the New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Women's Presidents Cup, as announced at the conference's annual meetings by WPI President Laurie Leshin along with NEWMAC President and WPI Director of Athletics Dana Harmon. The Engineers claimed six postseason championships and two regular season titles during the 2018-19 academic year.
"The MIT Athletics program had another exceptional year, and I applaud everyone who made this achievement possible," said MIT Chancellor Cynthia Barnhart. "Congratulations to the student-athletes, coaches, and staff for once again performing at such a high level in such a competitive setting. Earning both the NEWMAC men's and women's Presidents Cup for a fifth time overall is not something we take for granted. It's a true honor, and a victory that our teams fought hard for."
MIT kicked off the fall with women's cross country claiming the programs 12th consecutive crown, followed by the regular season and second straight championship title for women's soccer. The cross country program placed five runners in the top-six places at the NEWMAC Championship and went on to take third at Nationals, while women's soccer advanced to the Second Round.
MIT continued its success into the winter season with women's swimming and diving earning its ninth consecutive championship while the women's basketball team earned its second straight title. Women's swimming and diving went on to finish ninth at the NCAA Championship while the women's basketball team competed in the NCAA Championship Tournament.
During the spring, the women's track and field team claimed the programs 11th straight NEWMAC crown a week before the women's tennis team earned their fourth straight league title. Women's tennis went on to advance to the Elite Eight, while the women's track and field program wrapped up the spring with two All-American performances at the National Championship. MIT softball earned an at-large bid to the NCAA Championship Tournament and advanced to the regional final.
"I am very proud of our student-athletes, coaches and staff for another great year in the NEWMAC, which has proven annually to be one of the top Division III conferences in the country," said Julie Soriero, MIT Director of Athletics. "To be able to represent the NEWMAC is something that MIT takes great pride in and as a conference, our members do a great job performing on the regional and national level. With 12 NEWMAC Championships, three individual NCAA National Champions and 16 teams competing in NCAA Championship events, our teams at MIT have again had a great year representing the Institute and we are very pleased to receive this year's NEWMAC Presidents Cups."
MIT has now earned the Presidents Cup for the women sixth times since its inception in 2012-13 (2012-13, 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19). This is also the fifth time since the inaugural year that MIT swept both the men's and women's Presidents Cup honors.
The Presidents Cup is an all-sports award presented to the top overall men's and women's programs in the conference and is determined using a weighted points system based on the order of finish during both regular season and championship competition.

It was the driest April since records began and in London and the southeast the dry has continued into May. This is very serious for farmers (and us all, as food prices will go up further still) and my bolting spinach is hardly a big deal by comparison. Bolting is a plant's response to dryness or a sudden change in temperature. The plant aims to flower and set seed before it dies. A flowering spike shoots up, often in the space of a couple of days, in a pre-programmed last ditch response to drought. Spinach is prone to bolting, even if you think you're watering carefully, and it's worth looking for bolt-resistant varieties. Typically you sow in early spring and again from August to avoid the dry season. Anyway, I've lost this lovely variety (from a seed swap, no label, forgotton the name) which was pretty, unusual with its sagittate leaves and tasty.
Nothing to do but take the remaining leaves and toss with a dressing and baby broad beans. I have sown Florence fennel in its place - also a notorious bolter - but May/June is the time to sow in this case to as cold is the bigger trigger to bolting.
Labels: bolting, broad bean, fennel, grow your own, growing, spinach

New York interior designer and developer Ari Heckman of ASH NYC, along with local business partner, Nathalie Jordi, redeveloped a former church and school in the Faubourg Marigny into a 71-room, independently run boutique hotel. The 156-year-old Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church and School had been vacant since 2001.
The Peter and Paul campus is comprised of four buildings along a block of Burgundy Street. Irish-born architect Henry Howard, who lived and worked in New Orleans in 19th century, designed the church. A convent, rectory and school building complete the site. The developers engaged the neighborhood for their input on uses for the former church space, which include co-working space, neighborhood organization meetings, yoga, free movie screenings, art installations, and more.
Palmisano's passion for adaptive reuse of historic architecture really shows in the renovation of these 4 independent structures in the Marigny. The team faced incredible structural challenges within all the buildings, in particular the school building which was converted from an existing 3-story to a 4-story building, creating an additional 15 guestrooms within the existing 145 year old structure. Through our partnership mentality, Palmisano collaborated with the Architects, Designers and Engineers for more than two years prior to construction actually starting to create a one of a kind space within these historic gems. Historic Renovation is not for the faint of heart, it is a day in and day out exploration and coordination with all team members to make the design intent into reality. Again, Palmisano's commitment to whatever it takes (Sweep Floors) successfully led the project to completion within the 14 month schedule.
Through a strategic rehabilitation with a project cost estimated at $20 million, the owners/developers plan to redevelop an underutilized and vacant city landmark into a 71-key hotel and community space, creating significant value for both the immediate neighborhood and greater region.
The developers engaged the neighborhood for their input on uses for the former church space, which include co-working space, neighborhood organization meetings, yoga, free movie screenings, art installations, and more.

A jury was set to hear closing arguments today in the trial of seven Narragansett Indians arrested during a state police raid on a tribal smoke shop five years ago.
The seven, including Chief Sachem Matthew Thomas, are on trial for allegedly resisting arrest or scuffling with police officers who raided the shop in July 2003 because it was selling tax-free cigarettes.
Thomas, the final defense witness, testified Thursday in Providence Superior Court.
He said he expected a legal fight after the shop opened, even telling members of the governor�s staff that he would see them in court, but that he didn�t know a raid was being planned. He also said the troopers didn�t show him a warrant despite his repeated demands to see it.
The Narragansetts opened the shop on tribal land in Charlestown on July 12, 2003. The state police obtained a warrant to search the shop, and two days after it opened, raided the business in a conflict that quickly turned violent and was filmed by TV news crews.
Prosecutors have argued that the Narragansetts broke the law by becoming physical with the troopers and say the officers were merely trying to carry out a court-approved warrant.
Several troopers testified that tribe members became violent with them as soon as they entered the property. But the four defendants who testified said police used excessive force. One said he suffered a broken ankle and another said a knee was thrust into her groin.
The seven defendants face misdemeanor counts ranging from disorderly conduct to assault. Each count carries a maximum sentence of one year in prison, but lawyers say there is little chance that any of the defendants would be sent to jail if convicted.
The shop was conceived as a money-making venture for a tribe that has grappled with poverty. Thomas said the Narragansetts, Rhode Island�s only federally recognized American Indian tribe, believed they had the right to open the business on tribal lands. A federal appeals court later ruled the shop was operating illegally.

Established in 1914, the Utica Zoo creates unique experiences while fostering an appreciation of wildlife through education, conservation, and recreation. We are proud to be accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums and an active participant in the Cotton Top Tamarin Species Survival Plan. Open 363 days a year, the Utica Zoo offers year-round enjoyment for visitors of all ages. Click Here to Support the Utica Zoo's Mission.
Our Cotton Top Tamarins are named Brutus, Dharma, Sawyer, and Tom and our Rhinoceros Iguanas are named Blackfoot and Stubby. You will notice that the Tamarins tend to be active throughout the day, while Blackfoot and Stubby are mostly active in the mornings. Feel free to explore the exhibit space by utilizing the controls on the left side of the screen. To use the controls, you must first zoom in, and then use the directional buttons to move within the frame. This is a great way to get a better look at Tamarins interacting with each other, enrichment items, or to see the Iguanas down on the ground. Despite the audio indicator, there is no audio.
You will also occasionally see Zoo Keepers inside the exhibit providing food and water, cleaning up after our animals, or setting up enrichment items. Our keepers are incredibly dedicated and have formed a wonderful bond with our animals. Our Cotton Top Tamarins and Rhinoceros Iguanas are some of the few animals our animal care staff is able to interact with inside their exhibit. We want to remind you that our keepers have years of training and are animal care experts. Please do not attempt to approach or handle any wild animal, or attempt to enter any exhibit at any Animal Care Facility.

"As a smaller zoo, we generally have about 100,000 yearly visitors, but being able to tell our story through our animals to the world is hugely important. As we continue to expand and grow, it is imperative to garner support from anywhere we can, and now thanks to EarthCam, we are able to share our story with people around the world. Plus, we hope that viewers will find our Cotton Top Tamarins intriguing and elect to support conservation efforts for these Critically Endangered animals. These types of efforts span the globe and we are proud to be an active part of those efforts. Furthermore, as an AZA Accredited Zoo, we also participate in the Species Survival Plan for Cotton Top Tamarins, which allows us to work collaboratively with over 230 other facilities to ensure the longevity and survival of these incredible animals."

Last week, I had to turn over my prism and Polaroid glasses for my new borrowed stereoscope.
The receptionist asked me to sign the equipment return form and I couldn't find a place for the "patient's signature", only "parent's signature". I looked at her and asked where to sign and she pointed to the "parent's signature" spot. I laughed.
"No surprise. I am the only patient more than 3 feet tall in this office! I have to sign as my own parent."
When I went to visit the strabismus specialist at the University of California San Francisco Hospital, the receptionist in the Pediatric Ophthalmology unit was surprised to see me sign in.
"You do know that this is the children's eye care center, right?"
"I am a child at heart" I said.
She chuckled.
"I am here to see Dr. Hoyt. I have strabismus and the only eye doctors who see cross eyed patients are pediatric ophthalmologists," I added.
Then I went to the waiting room to find a chair to sit in, but almost all of the chairs were for little kids and I couldn't fit! The "adult" chairs were all taken by the parents watching their kids playing with the waiting room toys. I just stood by the big windows admiring the gorgeous view of the rare fog-less San Francisco horizon.
Go figure. I am rewiring my brain to have what I should have had at birth. I am my own parent at the age of 33. Luckily, all the chairs in my vision therapist's waiting room are big enough for adults.

Unlike Shakespeare or Tennessee Williams, the film adaptations of Anton Chekhov's plays and short stories have not made much of an impact beyond festivals or art houses. While I still have vivid memories of watching Vanessa Redgrave, Natasha Richardson and Jonathan Pryce in a 1985 West End production of The Seagull, only Sidney Lumet obsessives are likely to remember the director's curious 1968 version with Redgrave, James Mason and Simone Signoret. Lumet was probably more faithful to Chekhov's themes of families and fading dreams in Running on Empty, his potent 1988 elegy for the idealism and myopia of New Left radicals on the run.Comments closed

How to Deposit Funds in Online Casinos – Full Guide
We have gathered all you need to know about different online Casinos Banking methods ( Deposits / withdrawal).
It is always important to research before selecting a online casino site. The variety of sports covered and the official casino lines, as well as the quality of the available customer service are important characteristics to consider.
The deposit methods available at a casino site are equally important. There are a variety of deposit methods available, depending on where you are. These include the use of major credit cards such as Visa, MasterCard and American Express, electronic payment services, and money transfer services.
This article discusses some of the most common methods used to deposit and withdraw funds at online gambling sites.
Wire transfer
Many online casino sites accept direct bank transfers to add funds to their online casino account.
Before there were innovations such as debit cards and electronic wallets, customers could send money through more traditional methods, such as bank transfers.
Plain and simple.
Bitcoin is one of the most recent options to make deposits and withdrawals in casinos, since this virtual currency appeared in 2009. Since its debut, it has been considered both as the future of online transactions and as just a volatile fashion.
Book to Book
Sports houses that accept "book to book" transfers allow you to transfer your balance between one site and another. These types of transfers are sometimes abbreviated as "B2B".
Checks are accept by many online casino sites arround the world and very popular in some parts of the world.
Credit Cards
For the moment, most non-US customers can use several credit cards, such as American Express, MasterCard and Visa, to make transactions at online casino sites.
The Discover credit and debit card is available primarily to customers within the United States. Founded by Sears in 1985, the company has grown to reach more than 60 million customers, which has made it the third largest American brand.
EcoCard was born in 2000, which means it is one of the oldest electronic wallet platforms.
After 13 years in the business, and with a very varied clientele, the company decided to reformulate the brand
and became ecoPayz in 2013. The company still uses that name, although its services have continued to evolve.
Money transfer trough E-mail
A money transfer by e-mail is a financial method that allows you to transfer funds from one personal account to another through an e-mail and online banking service.
service is mainly available to people living in Canada.
If you are looking for a safe and reliable way to deposit funds to your online casino site, Instadebit could be the answer. This electronic wallet service allows you to transfer money to and from your bank account, and you can do so without sharing account numbers or other private information.
Moneybookers is an electronic wallet service. This is a kind of virtual bank account, which serves as an intermediary between your real bank and online sellers. Instead of sharing the information on your credit card or bank number with many merchants (including betting sites), you can use Moneybookers.
Neteller \ Skrill
Electronic wallet service with a rich history. This virtual external account creates a security barrier between your personal bank account and online gambling sites.
Online payment services such as Neteller and Skrill / Moneybookers are widely used to make deposits at betting sites around the world.
Based in the United Kingdom, both Neteller and Skrill / Moneybookers allow customers to use an electronic wallet or digital wallet account to make secure and reliable deposits to a betting site from a credit or debit card, without disclosing personal financial information.
, as the issuer of the credit card and its number.
Neteller and Skrill / Moneybookers are established payment service companies, with millions of users around the world. Both companies have built a reputation for providing high quality customer service and enabling fast, reliable and secure payments.
Of course, depending on where you are and what service you choose, there may be commissions. Fortunately, the most prestigious sites that accept deposit by deposit services such as Neteller and Skrill / Moneybookers also offer many deposit bonuses and promotions that usually offset the cost of commissions.
Prepay Card
Prepaid Card cards have long been an option used by players to add funds to their sports betting account, and their popularity remains high. Although credit cards are not always accepted by online casino sites, a prepaid card is still a simple way to transfer money to a online casino site account.
Western Union
Western Union and Moneygram have been around for a long time, operating as money transfer services based in the United States that are popular with fans of sports betting, especially in the US. UU With Western Union and Moneygram, you do not have to provide a credit card or bank account information to make a deposit.Simply, take cash to one of the thousands of Moneygram or Western Union stores around the world. By paying a commission, you can make a deposit directly to your betting site, often for amounts greater than what would be possible using a credit card or a PayPal account. Of course, deposits made through money transfer services usually take some time to be processed, and it is always advisable to contact the customer support team at your betting site to inform them that your deposit is on the way.It is also important to note that money transfer services can be used for withdrawal. But do not forget that you will have to pay commissions and wait sometimes even several days until the transfer of your withdrawal is processed.With so many options available, it is important to research the deposit methods that your betting site offers, and which ones are best for you.
Western Union is a money transfer company with offices in every major city in the world.
In the USA UU its black and yellow logo can be found in shopping malls and business districts throughout the country.
This is one of the safest ways to deposit money on foreign online casino sites that work with EE.
UU Using Credit Cards to Make Deposits at a Betting SiteCredit cards are one of the most common methods for depositing funds.
American Express, MasterCard and Visa are accepted at many betting sites around the world, and are a good sign of the legitimacy of a bookmaker, since the major credit card companies are careful not to associate with unscrupulous operators.
Typically, both prepaid and regular credit cards can be used quickly and easily for both deposit and withdrawal purposes from your betting site.
There may be limits on the use of a MasterCard, American Express or Visa credit card, and some betting sites may charge fees for making deposits and withdrawals, so it is important to review the policy of each betting site before making your deposit.
This can also be difficult if you are using a card issued in the United States.
Federal law restricts the use of transactions in credit card betting sites issued in the United States.
Online Payment Services as an Alternative Deposit MethodFortunately, there are services available that allow those who have American cards to make deposits and withdrawals in accordance with the law of the United States.
MoneyGram is a transfer service that works similarly to its biggest rival, Western Union. This company has a huge network of subsidiaries, located in every city in the United States, and other places around the world.
Deposits Through Paypal
Another payment service whose popularity is growing rapidly to add funds to betting sites is PayPal. Especially popular on sites that work with the United Kingdom and parts of Europe, PayPal allows its users to make deposits and withdrawals quickly and easily, without using intermediary money transfer services.
With transactions made through a PayPal account you may also have to pay commissions according to the amount of deposits and withdrawals you make. However, PayPal generally only charges commissions on small amounts transfers.
Usually, no large commissions are charged.If you do not have a credit card, do not want to open a bank account, or can not use your PayPal account to make deposits on the betting site of your choice, there are still options.

It's early autumn and I'm in the place where you shouldn't keep an umbrella with you day by day. However, it feels so good to take a walk to the city center when it's pouring in Madrid. I've decided to let my sunglasses home, put my jacket on and go out. On my way to the metro I thought "Today it's gonna be the day I'm gonna see the Royal Palace of Madrid for the first time."
I don't know if I was lucky but the moment I arrived in front of the main building, the rain stopped, the sun began to shine bright again and I had the privilege to see an amazing view of the Royal Palace.
First all of all I would like to tell you how I arrived here. Opera metro station, was the place where I joined a group of students from the Erasmus Student Network of my University. From there we had to walk for a couple of minutes until we arrived here. It was so great that we could entered the Royal Palace for free.
If you also want to visit "Palacio Real" for free you need to know that: The free entry is from Monday to Thursday from 16:00 to 18:00 (winter) and from 18:00 to 20:00 (summer) for citizens or residents of the European Union and visitors from Latin American countries. Otherwise you have to pay 10 €- normal price or 5 € if you're a student under 25 years, you have between 5-16 years or you're over 64 years old.
Keep in mind that there is a line and you have to wait a bit, that's why I suggest you to come a little bit earlier.It's gonna be also a quick security check just like in the airport. Also, don't forget to bring with you your ID card or passport!
After all these steps our excitement of visiting and taking lots of pictures was getting bigger and bigger. We finally arrived in the center of the Palace. For a moment I couldn't decide what to do first, so I took my selfie stick and started to take some pictures.
The Royal Palace of Madrid, built in the eighteenth century, is the symbol of the new dynasty of Kings that came to Spain, the Bourbons. King Philip V (the first Bourbon King in Spain) decided to build this enormous palace after a disastrous fire in 1734. This is also the symbol of his dynasty in Madrid.
Over the years, the palace was decorated with countless works of art from France, Italy, Flanders and Austria. Thanks to some of the best architects of the time, you can now admire wonderful sculptures, splendid lamps, clocks, valuable furniture paintings, etc.
What is absolutely stunning is the interior of the Royal Palace. You can find wonderful porcelain pieces, brought from the Royal Porcelain Factory located in Retiro Park.
I found out that nowadays the Royal Palace of Madrid is only used for official ceremonies and gala dinners attended by heads of state and monarchs of other countries. Also the Palace would never be inhabited again by the Royal Family, that's because it moved to the Zarzuela Palace, located on the outskirts of the city.
I could spend hours and hours in the Royal Palace admiring all the rooms (over 30 open to the public) but If I had to choose the most beautiful ones I would say the Throne Room, Porcelain Room and Dining Gala Hall. Unfortunately, in some rooms you can't take pictures, but if you really want to remember how stunning was the inside, you can buy some postcards from their shop at the end of the tour, like I did.
Remember that on the First Wednesday of each month there is the Changing of the Guard Ceremony at the Royal Palace of Madrid. The performance begins at 12:00 and consists of a music band, 100 horses, more than 400 soldiers and vintage carriages. I think this would be for sure a spectacle well worth seeing!
I hope you arrive here at least once in your life and you will love this palace like I did.
