Kailua is a town on the Windward Coast of Oahu in Hawaii. The coast in general is renowned as an area of outstanding natural beauty, and Kailua is a great place to see some spectacular sunrises. With some great beaches and a laidback lifestyle, Kailua is the ideal destination for a relaxed family holiday. And with a huge amount of self-catered accommodation available in the town, you can find a home from home in this idyllic island setting. A trip to Hawaii might not sound like a money saving holiday, but there are rental homes available to suit every budget, and free up cash to enjoy the rest of your family holiday.
Kailua Beach Park will be the first stop for many tourists, and this amazing ocean beach is bound to take up a few days of your visit. Work on your tan, and admire the sea turtles which can be seen in the area. Also, watersports enthusiasts will love the opportunities provided by Kailua Beach, including kayaking, windsurfing, kiteboarding and scuba diving. All necessary equipment can be hired nearby for some unforgettable holiday experiences. Quite apart from exploring the rest of the Windward Coast and Oahu in general, you will also have to take a boat out to the Mokulua Islands, two small islands just off Oahu's coast which provide great surfing opportunities and slightly less crowded white sandy beaches.
With a huge variety of family friendly rental homes available in and around Kailua, it is easy to find deals on luxurious apartment rentals. With rental costs starting from just £390 for apartments large enough to accommodate a family of four or more, it can work out much less expensive than booking hotel rooms for the entire family. Many of the apartments come with spectacular ocean views, as well as access to private pools, tennis courts and other facilities, so it will certainly not feel like a low cost option! The extra privacy and space that comes with a rented holiday property also means that they're great for kids - the youngest members of your family can run around and let off steam without you having to worry about them disturbing the neighbours!

PSG vs Club Brugge Preview: England's first game after 2019 World Cup will be against Spain which is a competitive one in then newly formed UEFA Nations League. Gareth Southgate had the second youngest squad in 2019 World Cup and he seems to continue in trusting youngsters as the move ahead after what was a rather successful World Cup campaign.
Spain On other hand got knocked out in the hands of Croatia in round of 16 and there were some inquest back home. However they brought in Luiz Enrique as the head coach and he already have his authority with sacking some under performing players including Jordi Alba
Match Predictions: England fans were surprised by how far England made it into the World Cup 2019 but a late comeback by Croatia ended England's chances of reaching first World Cup final appearance since 1966. However the signs were healthy with some players yet to reach their peak and others playing on a higher level than expected. England play wounded Spain who will be looking to bounce back after disappointing campaign in World Cup 2019

CLEMSON, S.C. – Over the weekend, the King University cycling team won their first conference title securing enough points at the Southeastern Collegiate Cycling Conference Championships to hold off other strong contenders in the conference. The Tornado got off to a rough start on Saturday, but put together what may have been their best performance all season in the criterium on Sunday to take the title.
The race got started on Saturday with the time trial where the men's A team came to a sixth place finish. On the women's side, the A team Tornado came in with a third place finish. In the individual time trial Derek Hurst placed third in the strong men's B category
Things got interesting for King in the road race as they had three men's riders get caught up in two different crashes in the race. Both Alex Jensen and Reuben Dupre got caught in the first wreck and had to drop out of the race while Casey Stallard got slowed down in the second crash. In the same race, T.J. Killelea finished 20th in a field of more than 60 riders.
On the women's side, things went much smoother in the road race as Keely Easterling finished ninth in the women's category B race. In the women's category A race, the Tornado had two riders in the top-10 and three in the top-15. Stephanie Cucaz was King's high finisher, placing fifth while Kate Ross joined her in the top-10 at 10th. Megan Rogers rounded out the group with a 15th place finish.
The King men rebounded on Sunday, however, as the category A riders turned in their best race all season. In what was the toughest race of the season, the Tornado put two riders in the top-15. Julian Cabra finished 10th while Jensen came in right behind him place 11th. In category B, Zach Maness came in with a sixth place finish.
Cucaz found herself at the back of the pack with one lap to go in the women's category A race before she made her move. The sophomore passed the pack and with a strong sprint she pulled away from the field to take the victory. Despite losing her chain on the last corner, Ross still placed 10th in the same race. Jordan Galewski rode her best race of the season in the women's category B race, and placed 8th.
Hurst finished the season with a third place finish in category B while the Tornado took home their first SECCC title and earned the automatic berth into the national race May 3-5 in Ogden, Utah.

Whitney Houston said it best. 🙂
"I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way."
I try to do what I can to set a good example for my kids — whether it means making healthy meals, picking up trash on our hikes, or taking care of my mental health. I believe that despite what they may learn from their friends or in school (although we are home schooling this year — more on that soon, I promise), my husband and I are still their primary teachers.
Although my kids are still young, I think it's important for them to learn that we need to take care of the earth and that like anything or anyone else, the earth deserves our respect.
As I was digging deeper into the One Million Acts of Green web site the other day, I discovered they have a page dedicated to Education Resources for Teaching about Climate Change.
"When it comes to educating children about the environment, the entire world is a classroom."
That's a philosophy I've become rather fond of in regard to home schooling too, but like I said, I'll write more about that another time soon. 😉
They go on to say: "The One Million Acts of Green Program works closely with the National Wildlife Federation, The Climate Project, and its website partner GreenNexxus to provide high-quality, age-appropriate resources for K-12, and beyond."
There are links to all kind of resources that can be used to teach kids about the environment and climate change. While some of it may be geared moreso to a classroom setting, there's a lot of information that could be used by parents as well.
This link to the National Wildlife Federation has a bunch of answers to kids' questions about global warming, including a Parent's Guide to Talking To Kids About Global Warming.
Another link is to Cool The Earth which is a program similar to One Million Acts of Green, but for kids.
Cool The Earth is a free, ready-to-run program that educates K-8 students and their families about climate change and inspires them to take simple actions to reduce their carbon emissions. The program is successful because it's fun and empowering for the kids, and their enthusiasm is contagious!
Cool The Earth can be run at any elementary or middle school in the country. If you are interested in learning more, check out how to bring the program to your child's school.
In addition to the education resources, there's a lot of other good info available at One Million Acts of Green. If you haven't yet checked out One Million Acts of Green, I encourage you to read my intro post and learn more about how you can start logging and sharing your Acts of Green. Check out the Facebook app too!
Disclosure: Rockfish Interactive, in partnership with Cisco, is compensating me for my considerable time on this project. However, my ideas, words, and opinions are my own and are not influenced by this compensation.

Hadhrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad, Khalifa tul Masih IV (May Allah have mercy on him), enlightened the Jamaat with these beautiful pearls of wisdom during the many Question and Answer sessions he held throughout the term of his Khilafat. Below are extracts of those gems, rendered in pictorial form by Dr Abid Ahmad. These videos cover many aspects of the Tarbiyyat of our every day lives, for the young, old, male or female. All are encouraged to take benefit from these treasures that our beloved Hudhur left behind for us. The simple yet beautiful and comprehensive way that he answered all kinds of questions, the warm way he embraced each questioner with his easy going free flowing love that encapsulated the whole audience, these videos are a must for all of us to view again and again!

Testimonies: All Types of Healing
"My aunt called at 7 a.m. on Thursday. She said my cousin was dying. The doctors gave her three to five days to live. Melissa was in liver failure. I prayed, called others to pray, and called the Healing Rooms to go to the hospital. When I arrived in Melissa's room she was a dark orange yellow color due to liver failure. I saw the blue prayer cloth from the Healing Rooms taped to her wrist. From that point she began the journey to live and not die. Today is Saturday, the orange yellow is nearly completely gone. The doctors are now saying she can make a total recovery. Thank you, Lord Jesus for making a way and your body for walking in it."
- Esther M. on October 4th, 2003
"Lower lombard 4 & 5 healed. Lower back pain gone. Praise the Lord. Thank you, Jesus."
- Bonnie R. on July 21st, 2004
"On Friday, September 10, I was on the prayer team praying for a person with a cancerous tumor that covered the whole right side of his face. This made me very lump and tumor conscious. I have had a lump (about 1/2 inch) under my right arm pit for several months, but I ignored it because it caused no discomfort or pain whatsoever. Thursday evening I happened to notice it was still there. I placed an anointed prayer cloth from the Healing Rooms under my arm pit and slept with it that night. The next day I discovered there was another lump near the other one under my right arm pit. I kept the prayer cloth under my arm pit day and night. I felt movement going on there and for the first time, I felt pain in that area. When I would remove the prayer cloth the pain totally disappeared, but I wanted the healing to be completed so I put the cloth back. The pain increased Saturday and I felt the pain on my shoulder behind my arm pit. I was not upset with the pain because I knew it was the Lord doing surgery on those lumps. Sunday the lumps were shrunk considerably. By Monday both lumps had totally disappeared."
- Jo Ann M. on September 10th, 1999
"God keeps healing anything that tries to take root in my body. I came in for prayer for a lump and pain in my left breast. The next day I had a mammogram. I believed God to remove anything wrong in my body. Mammogram report: No lump and I have no pain, either. I'm so grateful and thankful for God loving me so much."
- Jacqueline M. on March 12th, 2003
"I had a growth on my arm prayed for. Today when I had prayer I pulled my sleeve up for them to see the growth and it pealed off and was gone!"
- Sherie S. on March 1st, 2003
"I had a lump and was prayed for. When I went to the doctor it was gone. Thank you Lord for touching me."
- Lola B. on May 26th, 2004
"I've had something wrong with my lungs like bronchitis or an infection for about seven months. I had difficulty breathing. But now I can breathe easily!"
- Shandy T. on May 9th, 2003
"On July 29, 2000 I was prayed for by a prayer team. One of the men prayed off a wolf spirit. I had drug induced lupus after being given a drug called procaine hydrochoride by a naturopathic physician (In Feb. of 1999). I had a reocurrence of symptoms in Feb. of 2000 lasting almost five months. When I was prayed for at the Healing Rooms I knew I was healed and the Lupus was broken off my body. I have ben healed by Jesus. I spent two days at the Healing Rooms in July with two friends from Pensacola. I went back August 12 and 13 with my husband and our three children and daughter-in-law. I received greater impartation there for laying hands on the sick for healing. I experienced a real freedom in the Spirit for worship and intercession while in the War Room for many hours during those days."
- Leslie F. on July 29th, 2000
"I am expecting my total healing of systemic lupus to be confirmed by my doctors. My immediate healing today was of lupus related stomach pain. Because of this I have had to take pain killers four times a day just to eat. I was also freed of confusion. I actually felt my ears pop and immediately heard more clearly. This confusion has been a problem since my stroke two years ago (I'm 27 years old). Thank you Lord, for fulfilling your promise of total restoration!"
- Kim E. on June 30th, 2000
"This is the miraculous story of my healing. But this is NOT about me. This is about God showing His glory to many in a fresh and vital way. My blessing in this is huge, yet it's small compared to all the ways He's blessing others who are hearing that their prayers for me have been answered. I had Lyme Disease and two of its coinfections since July of 2002, almost a year. Even with treatment, I was going downhill. The disease had attacked my joints like rheumatoid arthritis, my muscles like multiple sclerosis, and my brain's processing like Parkinsons. In the worse of days I couldn't even summon the energy to get dressed. Treatment to kill the Lyme and other diseases in my body caused periods of worsened symptoms called "Herx" periods, due to the toxins that are produced as the bugs are killed off. The Herx periods were supposed to lesson over time, but they weren't. My ministry of writing Christian fiction became so difficult, and I was falling behind on my book deadlines. The last week of the illness was a relatively good one for me, which was expcted. I went off part of the medication for a week, allowing my body to rest. On Monday May 12th I was scheudled to start another round of medication, the harshest yet, and one expected to cause the worse "Herx" periods of all. Taking advantage of my better week, my husband, Mark, and I decided to go to our second home in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho for the weekend. Then on Tuesday the 6th God impressed upon me that we should visit the Healing Rooms in Spokane, Washington (close to Coeur D'Alene). This is a Christian ministry with a plethora of miracles in its history. We'd known about the Healing Rooms for some time, but had not been in Coeur d'Alene at a time when we could go. Suddenly I really felt a real urgency to go. Meanwhile, a gal from the ACRW e-mail loop (American Christian Romance Writings) got a word from the lord. She was to proclaim to ACRW that Saturday May 10 that there was a 24-hour day of prayer for me, and to sign up pray-ers for 15 minute slots, starting at midnight Friday night. Now no one on the loop knew I was planning to go to the Healing Rooms that very day. But God knew. And He'd now made it clear--Saturday was His day for me. I grew expectant. I started telling my family, I'm going to be healed on Saturday." Then I began hearing from others in ACRW how the list for praying was filling up. I cannot express how humbled that made me feel. It is very humbling to see others choose to serve you, when you've done nothing to deserve such service. Yet there it was. And to see that people were even getting up in the middle of the night! I thanks God, knowing my unworthiness, yet also knowing that He was planning something big--for the good of us all. Saturday morning I was really hurting, paying for trying to do too much on Friday. I hobbled into the Healing Rooms using my cane as much as I could, but with a weak upper body, you can't lean much on a cane. Amberly, our 13-year-old, and Brandon, our 20-year-old, went with Mark and me. The four of us couldn't fit with the prayer team into one small room, so Mark and I went into one room while Brandon and Amberly went into another room with another prayer team to pray for me. The prayer team of 3 prayed for Mark and then for my healing. I felt nothing. They told me to believe God for healing and that it would come. After that prayer session, by God's design, I'm sure, the place was unusually empty. No more sick people to pray for. The prayer teams were just sort of standing around. So I felt I should take advantage and go in a second time with a different prayer team. The second time Brandon went in with me. The team prayed for me, and this time (as one ACRWer had said I should do) I prayed too, commanding aloud that the illness leave my body in Jesus' name. Brandon prayed also. Again I felt absolutely nothing. The prayer team said sometimes people don't feel anything, but then the healing just swiftly comes. When I went out of that session, I was walking a little better. But to tell the truth I wouldn't admit it. I was disappointed, because I'd expected to be healed right then--and FEEL it. For some reason, I said to myself, God hasn't healed me. Still, I willed myself to praise Him anyway. We drove back to Coeur d'Alene, about a half-hour, and stopped at a restaurant for lunch. When I got out of our SUV, suddenly I didn't need my cane. At all. And I walked into the restaurant slowly, but completely NORMALLY. I hadn't walked like that for months! By the time we got to the house, I was really feeling better. The pain was gone. My knees were stronger. My elbows and neck didn't hurt. I felt energy like I haven't felt before. I went upstairs to our bedroom--and walked up the stairs NORMALLY! Then I came down them (really hard for weak legs) totally normally. I'd had to turn sideways and come down one step at a time for months, lowering only by using my left leg, because my right knee had been the worst. Now I just sailed down them. I let out a whoop and called the family to come see. So of course I had to go back up the stairs and come down them again. Normally! They were quite nonplused, let me tell you. I couldn't help it; I had to strap on the ol' jogging shoes. Hadn't had on a pair of those in a long time. I went outside to walk around our driveway. The driveways altogether around the house and garages and up to the road and back form about a 1/3 mile loop. And there's some grades to them. I hadn't been able to go up and down grades, even with a cane, for a long time. Suddenly I was just walking up those hills. Then walking down. The Healing Rooms had given me a long prayer for healing. I took the piece of paper with me and began praying it out loud. I completed a whole loop, walking like a normal person, and said the prayer aloud. And I kept doing looops, each time saying the prayer and shouting to Jesus, let me tell you! I ended up doing 5 laps, about 1 mile. Theh last lap I actually did a light JOG!! My knees felt strong enough and I just eased into for a while. I was healed. The only thing left was some stiffness in the backs of my knees. Because I haven't been able to straighten my knees for months, the body tissue and muscles in the backs were tightening, shortening. This was leading to even more drawing up of my legs. If I had continued to be sick for months, as my doctor had predicted, this would have gotten worse and worse and required some real therapy even after healing. This tissue had to be lengthened again. I wanted to keep walking after the five laps, but I knew I have to take it easy on my muscles, which aren't used to the exercise. So I went inside and turned on emails. What an outpouring from folks at ACRW who were praying! And please note: They STILL didn't know I'd gone to the Healing Rooms. Only one or two were even aware that I knew about the prayer vigil. Yet post after post came through about the powerful prayer times people were having. They were being blessed, and God was giving many an expectation of a miracle. That day of prayer, indeed, was not about me. It was about God releasing His power--in my body, and in minds of all of the pray-ers. Some of them even mentioned telling others--spouses or friends--about the prayers, and how that message affected those people. One of the gals stopped the work in a beauty parlor, as she was getting her hair colored when her time came to pray. Her hair dresser and the receptionist prayed too, and the receptionist said, "I've never felt closer to God than right now." Others mentioned their spouses' amazement at the day of prayer--and how it was a witness for them. By this time it was about 4:00 Pacific time. People would still be praying for me until 10 p.m. my time (the prayer list was on Central time). I knew without a doubt that I could not write the ACRW loop and say anything then. God was continuing to pour out his blessings on ACRW, and that should continue until the end of the prayer time--for the pray-ers and for me. I felt the continued prayers would help my knees right up to the end of the day, and people would continue to be blessed. Other sample statements from the pray-ers as they wrote the loop on Saturday: "I could see Christ's light of healing and love going right through Brandilyn's life." "No words would come except for Brandilyn's name. The more I tried to concentrate, the more her name kept being repeated. So I spent the whole time just saying her name, figuring the Holy Spirit knew what He wanted to say." "This prayer list was called forth by God Himself. He will be lifted up and praises from teh results of this day will be spoken throughout te world for some time to come." "I really felt the presence of God." "By the time I finished praying and crawled back into bed at 3:05 a.m., I knew that God had already begun to answer." "I felt the strong desire to pray that God would heal Brandilyn right then." "I was amazed at how blessed I was MYSELF during my half hour of prayer." "God impressed me with the need to pray for healing right now. That prayer stream went throughout the day." "When I closed my eyes to pray, I felt like I was already at the throne room of grace." "It was a time of indescribable peaceful communion." And the last pray-er, at 11:45 p.m. Saturday night (after I'd been completely healed): "The song 'Praise Him, praise Him, all ye little children' kept running through my head and interrupting my prayers, so I finally decided to just sing the song and changed my prayer of supplication to a prayer of praise for what I knew God had accomplished that day through the faithfulness of His children." God had done an amazing thing. He'd used one small issue in my life as a springboard for pouring out His blessings on many. I went ot bed at 9:00. For the first time in months, I didn't put a pillow lengthwise under my legs. I'd had to do this because I couldn't straighten my knees, and because I needed my heels to hang off the pillow so they wouldn't rest on the bed, which hurt. But no pillow that night. At first it was a little uncomfortable, but I would not use the pillow. I thought, "People are still praying for me, and God is still answering. By morning this is going to be better." And it was. By morning, I could sleep on my back with no discomfort. My knees were straighter. Mark and I got up and went for a three-mile walk. Three miles! Dear friends, I'd counted it wondrous when I could shuffle a lap around the downstairs of our home. I came home from teh walk and cleaned the kitchen. Did some vacuuming. Vacuuming! All of you who hate this job--rejoice now when you do it. Because you CAN! Two days later on Monday the 12th I started the hard medication. I couldn't see my doctor for over four weeks because she'd gone on vacation. Mark and I talked about it, and prayed, and it was clear that I was to take this medication. (The Healing Rooms tells you to not stop medication until a doctor verifies your healing.) I prayed for God's protection against the hard medicine itself, which in those high doses has put people in the hospital. As for the bad Herxes, they only come when the Lyme and other diseases are being killed. I knew God had killed off the little buggers already, so believed that no Herx would occur. And that's exactly what happened--NOTHING! No Herxing has provided part of the medical proof of my healing. The final proof will come when my doctor sends me for re-testing of my blood. I must say, as difficult as this sick time was, I would not trade it. Because God showed me SO MUCH. I am not the same person I was before the illness. He has used this illness for His glory in my life--a wondrous example of Romans 8:28. When I was first diagnosed the husband of an ACRW friend called me to tell me he had a word from the Lord for me. Now keep in mind I don't even know this guy, so he was being brave to obey God and call me. He told me God would heal me in time, but in the meantime He wanted to draw me to Himself. More and more deeply. I heard that word deep in my spirit; I knew it was from God. And right away I vowed obedience to that word, and I began much longer periods of devotions, and I began praying the Psalms. Here in a nutshell is what God taught me: 1. An eternal perspective. As the old Southern gospel song goes, "This world is not my home; I'm just a-passin' through." When we think eternally, even the harsh things of this world lessen in significance. 2. Praise. He showed me how to pray the Psalms daily, aloud. Didn't matter how I felt. Didn't matter if I could hardly speak, or if I was crying from frustration and weakness. What mattered was my WILL to praise God, because HE IS GOD, regardless of my circumstances. Our merciful Lord enlarged my heart and taught me how to do this. I didn't always feel good for having done it right away, I can tell you, but God sure blessed me over time through this. And I can't even take the credit for being faithful, because, good grief, without His help, I never could have done it in the first place. 3. Serving with delight. No, *I* wasn't serving; I couldn't do anything. I watched others serve me. Friends sent me cards, emails, flowers, gifts, books. Mothers drove my daughter to school. Most of all my husband did everything--my job and his too. And he did it with such patience and caring. When my brain would get all scrambled and I could hardly speak, he would patiently wait for the words to come out. He'd call every day from work to check up on me. He'd rush home and make dinner. He learned to navigate the treacherous aisles of the grocery store. My illness was very stressful and depressing for him because he loves me so much. Yet he always served me with DELIGHT. Not out of joyless obligation. Waht a lesson he taught me. What a lesson so many have taught me. 4. Humility. This comes right out of #3. You can't accept all this wondrous, undeserved service from people and not be greatly humbled. And its' humbling just to not be able to do thing--to walk right, to think right or speak normally. God has stripped me of many ego issues--and wow, what a wonderful thing! 5. Faith. Somehow God in His mercy managed to show me, even when I was at my worst, how to have bigger and bigger faith in Him. He shoed me how all of us believers are in the palm of His hand. And He WILL provide. I also must mention that the ACRW friend's husband called me numerous times during my illness. He called a month ago, encouraging me to keep drawing closer to God and praising Him. And he gave me a prophetic word: "God is going to visit you." Well, now, and didn't God do just that. As one of the ACRW pray-ers said (in what is clearly another prophetic word)--"God will be lifted up, and praises from the results of this day will be spoken throughout the world for some time to come." UPDATE, POSTED JUNE 8, 2004: On May 10, I celebrated the one-year anniversary of my healing. I'm still healthy and am jogging my five-mile runs. I still pray the Psalms every day and continue to be humbled by all that God has done and is doing for me."
- Brandilyn C. on June 3rd, 2003

International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme
Project DescriptionThe International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP, http://www.igbp.kva.se)
is an interdisciplinary scientific activity established and sponsored by the
International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU). The Programme was instituted
by ICSU in 1986, and the IGBP Secretariat was established at the Royal Swedish
Academy of Sciences in 1987.
The IGBP programme is focused on acquiring basic scientific knowledge about the
interactive processes of biology and chemistry of the Earth as they relate to
global change. The goal of the programme is to describe and understand the
interactive physical, chemical and biological processes that regulate the total
Earth system, the unique environment that it provides for life, the changes
that are occurring in this system, and the manner in which they are influenced
by human actions.
IGBP is composed of eleven program elements. These are composed of eight
broadly discipline-oriented projects, called Core Projects, covering such
topics as atmospheric science, terrestrial ecology, oceanography, hydrology,
and links between the natural and the social sciences. Three Framework
Activities on data, modelling, and regional research, facilitate incorporating
scientific results into a holistic picture. The detailed planning and
implementation of each Core Project is directed by a Scientific Steering
Committee, and the Framework Activities are each guided by a Scientific
Steering Committee or a Task Force.
Current and Past Core Projects:
Analysis, Integration and Modeling of the Earth System (AIMES)
Biospheric Aspects of the Hydrologic Cycle (BAHC)
Global Analysis, Interpretation and Modelling (GAIM)
Global Change and Terrestrial Ecosystems (GCTE)
Global Ocean Ecosystem Dynamics (GLOBEC)
Global Lang Project (GLP)
International Global Atmospheric Chemistry Project (IGAC)
Integrated Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research (IMBER)
Integrated Land Ecosystem-Atmosphere Processes Study (iLEAPS)
Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS)
Land-Ocean Interactions in the Coastal Zone (LOICZ)
Land-Use and Land-Cover Change (LUCC)
Past Global Change (PAGES)
Surface Ocean-Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS)
Global Change System for Analysis, Research and Training (START)

BOSTON - After two years as director, Matthew Teitelbaum said he feels at home at the Museum of Fine Arts and is excited about the multi-prong approach to create that feeling for others.
"I have this thing about talking about the museum as home," said Teitelbaum before the opening of three new exhibits in the Linde Family Wing for Contemporary Art. "I want it to be a welcoming place for everyone."
Teitelbaum has overseen the creation of the strategic plan MFA 2020, which has more than 50 initiatives to build on the institution's strengths and promote new engagements. When the museum turns 150 years old in three years, he expects to celebrate a treasured, established institution that has become even more vital to art and the public.
In particular, the plan – launched last June – aims to increase visitor diversity, encourage collaboration among the museum's curators and staff and with other major museums around the world, and engage the wider community around art and contemporary issues.
"We want to maintain and build our core audience, which tends to be older and Caucasian," Teitelbaum said during an interview after the exhibit openings. "We can do that, and also create that bold invitation that will diversify our audience. We have to work at it, but we can serve many audiences."
Since 2007, roughly one million people have visited a year, with 1,192,217 visits so far this year. In 2015, 79 percent were Caucasian, 75 percent age 45 or older and 67 percent female.
To expand diversity, the museum is casting a wide net. Through a variety of programs, free admission is offered to new American citizens, community college students and New England teachers of grades K-12. Other programs offer people new reasons to come and engage with one another – such as the Late-Night Signature Series parties (previously called #MFANow) and the City Talks contemporary issues forums.
"When people walk around the museum, I hope they'll see greater diversity and people in conversation about art and contemporary issues," Teitelbaum said. "That would make me feel pretty good."
Another way to foster conversation is through exhibits such as the unconventional "Seeking Stillness," designed by curators from five departments, who usually work separately. In three galleries of the Linde Family Wing, it explores the artistic process, meditative experiences and responses to nature through paintings, photographs and sculptures from American, Chinese, Japanese, Indian and European artists, created from the 5th to the 21st centuries.
"An exhibit like this speaks to the strength of the MFA's deep collection, which crosses time, geography and cultures," Teitelbaum said. "We have this wonderful opportunity to talk about how art travels and how contemporary artists are in dialogue with the past. We're going to have more collaborations."
Through the many hours of work on the strategic plan, the staff and Teitelbaum – who comes across as affable, approachable and relaxed – learned a lot about each other.
"Many people knew what I believed a museum can be," said Teitelbaum, who was director of the Art Gallery of Ontario for 17 years before his selection as MFA director following an international search. "But not many people knew what I was like to work with, how I engage people and how I make decisions. I believe in the conversations that leads to refinement, but I think you have to be able to make decisions."
In 2020, Teitelbaum said he hopes to walk through the galleries proud that a great museum has become even better.
"We're in a good moment now, and we've got some real energy," he said. "I want this place to feel alive."

Oh, Canada
I do have a beef to pick with Canada as a country.
I saw a lot of cool things on the endless drive back to Edmonton.
A wolf. Running along the side of the road. Very cool. I wish The Bug hadn't puked all over my camera - I would have loved to have a picture of it.
And a guy running a dogsled. Also on the side of the highway. Very cool, in a good-god-I-wouldn't-do-that-in-a-million-years sort of way.
I've also seen a baby black bear.
I saw horses and magpies and oil rigs and lots and lots of snow.
But in all my trips to the Great White North, I have yet to see this:
And believe me, I've looked.
What the hell, Canada? I think you're lying about the moose. You don't really have any, you just say you do so Yanks like me will keep coming up there, hoping for their own Northern Exposure experience.

I've seen moose...in Montana.
Glad the girls saw their grandparents, especially if it meant you getting a bit of a break :)

If it makes you feel better, I've never seen ANY of those animals except for bear. We do, however, have seals and dolphins in Orange County! : )

You do know Northern Exposure was filmed in Washington, right? :) I drive by the town when we go thru the pass, beautiful country.

You need to go to Newfoundland. They're everywhere. When I lived in small town Newfoundland, we had a bear cage around our playground (we lived on a road with just 6 houses in the middle of nowhere) and had moose and bears coming right up to the houses!

Did you at least see elk? If you didn't see elk, I think YOU are lying about being in Alberta, frankly.

Meese are mean creatures.
I read a dog musher's account from one of the Iditarod races where a angry momma moose killed five of his dogs.
And that sucks about your camera.
And is it mooses or meese? Both sound so incredibly wrong.

You have to go East to see them everywhere. They have moose crossing signs and everything.
Glad the kidlets had fun but next time, get the Husband to drop you in Burlington and we'll do fun stuff

Small Space, Small Plates, Big Flavors at Peix, Bar de Mariscos
Peix Bar De Mariscos
151 Elizabeth Street, New York, NY 10012 (b/n Broome and Delancey; map); 212-219-0599; peixnyc.com
Service: Not 100% knowledgeable about the menu but friendly.
Setting: Small, open, and noisy.
Must-Haves: Croquetas de Bacalao, Sautéed Prawns, Pulpo a la Gallega.
Cost: Small plates are $8 to $13, mains are $22 to $25.
Rating: Recommended with reservations.
The Spanish menu created by Mexican chef-consultant Ignacio Carballido (Cafe El Portal and Casa Mezcal) at Peix Bar de Mariscos is simple to the extreme—most dishes are nothing more than pristine seafood, a bit of olive oil, and some good technique—but compelling. It's easy to respect a chef who has the sense to let the ingredients do most of the work for him, letting their own creativity ride in the passenger seat.
Given its tiny space tucked into the old Xicala wine bar space on Elizabeth street between a laundromat and across from what may be Chinatown's oldest and dirtiest garage, it's an easy restaurant to miss, but it's worth the walk, especially on a warm weeknight when storefront windows are open and the bar is pouring refreshing glasses of their Spanish rosé.
A joint project between Carballido and manager Paula Ginestar-Campanaro (ex-wife of Little Owl and Market Table's Joey Campanaro), the menu is as small and simple as the space.
As is usual at small plates restaurants, the tapas ($8 each) and appetizers ($9 to $13) are the strongest part of the menu and have very few weak spots. Good thing too, as they make up over 75% of your options. This makes ordering pretty easy—just fill your table with a grab bag of whatever sounds good to you—it's all tasty.
Their fried dishes are universally good. Croquetas de bacalao ($8) are a fine example of the classic spanish dish. Theirs are crisply breaded in panko with a moist, creamy interior that really tastes of salt cod, the way they should. Fried calamari ($10) is as grease-free and tender as can be with a creamy romesco alli-oli for dipping. This stuff isn't going to blow your mind with creativity or ingenuity, but sometimes good, simple food and a cold beer is what you want on a warm weeknight.
The menu has a couple of fun nods to American cuisine as well. Baked clams ($8) are not-too-bready and have a nice briny tenderness. Eat them hot because the breading tends to get a little soft after they begin to cool. Now is not the time to be polite, get 'em before your friends do!
A trio of tiny lobster rolls ($13) come served in party-sized Martin's potato roll buns. They would have been tastier if they had been properly toasted with a bit more butter like a true lobster roll bun, but the lobster salad was generous and nicely seasoned, bound with just enough mayonnaise to hold it together.
Caesar salad ($9) also makes an appearance. Theirs is made with perfectly crisp and bright baby romaine in an umami-forward dressing, topped with a few pickled white anchovies.
Mussels ($11) are served in a garlicky broth with a few pieces of grilled bread. The broth is mild, letting the flavor of the mussels come through.
Another equally simple and delicious dish, the pulpo a la gallega ($8) is just tender enough to be pleasant while still maintaining enough chewiness to let you really know that it's octopus and comes simply dressed with some parsley, some paprika, and plenty of really good olive oil.
That olive oil plays another big role in the sautéed prawns ($12), easily my favorite appetizer over the course of three meals at the restaurant. Big, plump, crunchy, and packed with intensely briny shrimp flavor, these are the kind of dish that reminds you what shrimp is really supposed to taste like. The sautéed shrimp come dressed in a garlicky white wine and lemon sauce with lots of olive oil.
The four entrées on the menu are respectable enough, but are unexciting after the intense and varied flavors you get from a spread of tapas and appetizers. The best part of the zarzuela ($25) is the crisp-on-the-outside, creamy in the middle paella-style rice cake with fava beans. The seafood—a mix of mussels, shrimp, baby octopus, and salmon in a paprika-spiked broth—is a little muddy. You're much better off ordering the mussels, sautéed prawns, and octopus off of the appetizer menu. More seafood, cleaner flavors, and $1 less in total price.
I liked my Broiled Cod just fine once I got past the browned mayonnaise-y coating on top of it. The fish is fresh, tender, and flaky, and the corn and peas it comes served on top of make you wish that there were even more vegetables on the menu.
The biggest disappointment came at the end of the meal. Strawberry panna cotta ($8), advertised as the favorite of co-owner Paula Ginestar-Campanaro looks like something left behind by an albino cow with its lumpy texture, but to their credit, the owner kindly discounted it from our bill when they saw that we ate only a couple of bites. The Peach Tartine ($7) is a better option, though it's still not much more than some sliced peaches placed on a square of pre-fab puff pastry with a scoop of ice cream.
Still, with such a cute space, friendly service, and food that is both reasonably priced and well executed, it's easy enough to overlook the state of desserts when other parts of the meal pay off.

Well the World Cup is now half way through, 32 games played, 32 games to go. The talk here in the UK has focused around England their poor start. Two games played, one goal scored, one goal conceded, two draws, no wins, no losses, and they seem to lurch from crisis to crisis.
Starting with the goalkeeper and his now infamous error, moving onto what can only be described as a very poor display against, one of the weakest, on paper anyhow, teams in the competition in Algeria and now ex-captain John Terry being publicly critical of 'Don' Fabio and the 'Don' calling this his 'Big Mistake.' The 'Don' stripped Terry of the captaincy earlier this year for Terry's off the field antics with his best friend and England Team mates girl friend. As a direct result of this Wayne Bridge is taking no part in the World Cup and retired from International football. From a semi independent point of view it looks like Terry is determined to leave his mark on this competition one way or another.
So we look forward to England last game of the qualifying group. What is a must win game for England if they are to progress to the last 16 and between now and Wednesday they need to curb their infighting, pull together and the best out of a 'Golden Generation'. Which I personally find a strange tag as this side has never achieved anything of significance on the international stage. There are some 'World Class' players in this England Squad in the form of Rooney (who in my opinion is choking under the pressure to perform) Gerrard, Lampard and even Terry. They don't seem to be able to find the class they show for their respective clubs when playing in the same team for England. They need to work out how to do that pretty quickly if they are going to progress and sustain it if they have real aspirations of winning the competition.
