When you're dealing with SEO on pages try to have a great deal of articles which can be short and approximately the same thing rather than a post that's long. Search engines weigh the two types of articles differently. They weigh longer articles less favorably. Plus, a lengthy article implies that the specific info the visitor was looking for will probably be buried somewhere within the long article along with the visitor will quickly abandon it for an additional site.

Generic link text, for example "click here", is not going to positively affect search results. Crawling spiders will notice you if you use the appropriate keywords for anchor text.
Take full advantage of header tags. If you would like make the sizes smaller, use CSS to make them shorter. Search engine listings often use headers to rank sites in search engines.
As a result headers crucial. Use different tags – like H1 or H2 – to emphasize your products and services.
Using a robots.txt file in your root directory can assist you to tuck away content might hurt your search engine ranking. txt file that gets added to your own root directory. A computerized search engine indexer will read such a file and disregard the files and directories listed there. This may cause the indexing go faster.

Just Like Two Houses in One!
You Thought You Knew This Property….
….but you haven't seen this Lake Oroville area home since the sellers spruced it up. CLICK HERE to see how it looks now!
Buyers Beware
If there was ever a reason to use the time-tested phrase of Buyers Beware, this is it.
This type of thing has been going on for a long time, and not just in the real estate market of the Lake Oroville area. Just think how much money these type of companies are coaxing out of unsuspecting new homeowners. If they only get a 10% participation rate they would be raking in millions of dollars. Don't fall for it folks.
What In The Realty World is Going On Here?
One of the biggest challenges for anyone thinking of buying or selling real estate in any market across the country is determining the condition of the market in their particular area. Certainly the same holds true for the Lake Oroville real estate market.
But where in the world of realty can you get accurate market information? Zillow? Trulia? Maybe the nightly news.? Or better yet, how about Facebook? After all, if it is on Facebook, it must be true, right?
Your best resource for LOCAL market conditions is right here on this blog site. Over the past 5 years I have brought market updates, real estate advice, and sometimes some fairly provocative opinions. It is, and always will be, my opinion that there is a HUGE need for accurate local real estate market information in the Lake Oroville real estate market. I also believe that there is a drought of such information out there. This is why I make providing real estate market information the top priority of this blog site. I am always looking to bring information to you in a variety of ways and from different perspectives so that you know what is REALLY going on.
Which brings me to my latest graph. This graph illustrates the changes in the inventory of Lake Oroville homes for sale over the past 8 months at different pricing levels. What spurred me to research this is the fact that , although prices of homes that have sold has admittedly increased, the number of homes that are selling in the Oroville real estate market is on pace to be the first year since 2009 that the market will be selling fewer homes in the current year than the previous year. Yes, you read that right. Regardless of what the "salespeople" are telling you about how "busy" they are, the truth is the home sales in the Oroville market are significantly behind last years numbers.
Because the "numbers guy" in me is always looking to explain what would cause this to happen, I jumped into the database to see what I could glean. The graph below is the result of my research and is the basis for the following opinions: Continue reading
Lake Oroville Real Estate Market Week In Review

Celebrated Filmmaker Denis Villeneuve's latest, "Enemy", Bids Farewell to old Town Hall
Billed as a farewell event for Town Hall before the space undergoes extensive renovations this fall, the Innis Alumni Office, in partnership with the Cinema Studies Student Union, hosted a special screening of Denis Villeneuve's "Enemy".
Introduced as an "epic mind-screw" by the Associate Producer, Kevin Krikst, the film enchanted a packed house at Town Hall. The film centers around a scruffy, shambolic history professor at the fictional University of Greater Toronto played by Jake Gyllenhall, who discovers his doppelganger and decides to confront him. Set in and around UofT campus, Toronto figures prominently in the film, accentuated by stunning, and virtually apocalyptic, scenes of the city. The sweeping panoramic shots of the city are accompanied by an ominous, haunting score. The film also stars Innis' own Sarah Gadon, who has no fewer than four films under her resume this year alone.
Following the screening, Charlotte Mickie, an ardent supporter of Innis College and its students and a long-time film industry executive, moderated a lively discussion between the two associate producers of the film, Fraser Ash and Kevin Krikst. The three panelists covered a wide range of topics, from how the project received the blessing of Jose Saramago to the choice of Toronto as the setting for the story. The discussion provided valuable insight and behind-the-scenes detail on how a small, independent film such as "Enemy" goes from conception to its eventual distribution.

Warning: There are spoilers ahead for AMC's "The Walking Dead" mid-season premiere, "Honor."
After eight episodes of teasing the fandom, "The Walking Dead" finally revealed Sunday what was up with those weird futuristic flash-forward scenes featuring an older Rick, Michonne, and Judith.
You may not like the answer.
Here's your last chance to head back before spoilers.
The season eight premiere in October teased several sequences showing an older, grayer Rick with a cane waking up in a changed Alexandria. The war with Negan was over, several years had passed, and his daughter and Michonne were living with him.
Many were quick to think these flash-forward sequences signaled one of two things. Rick was waking up from a coma after his gunshot wound on season one and none of what happened the previous seven seasons was real.
Comic fans believed the scene was a giant reference to a flash-forward that takes place in the graphic series. Directly after the "All Out War" storyline taking place now, the comic skips forward two years.
After Sunday's mid-season premiere, we now know neither of those theories is true.
So what was it?
As Carl lays on his deathbed, he reveals to his father throughout the episode they were his visions and dreams for the future.
More sequences are shown with Eugene, Siddiq, and even Negan all living in harmony at a rebuilt Alexandria.
If you're scratching your head over that, you weren't the only one at first.
"That's kind of what I thought they were — flash forwards. But when I found out that they were kind of Carl's visions and dreams of how life could be, I thought that was even cooler," actor Chandler Riggs, who played Carl, told press in a conference call for the show's return.
Carl has made it clear over the past eight episodes that he's really against his father continuing the war with Negan. He's against killing off more of the living when the undead are obviously their real threat. Carl wouldn't be in such dire straights if the undead weren't a problem.
During one of his final conversations with Rick before he was bit, Carl challenged his father.
"We're fighting so it's all of us working together for something more than just killing other people," Carl told his father in the winter mid-season finale.
"You think we're going to be out there picking strawberries with Negan?" Rick asks Carl jokingly.
"If that's what it takes. It's more than just hope. What are we just going to kill all of them?" Carl asks. "Finding some way forward, that's harder. That's something more. Dad, that's how it's gotta be."
Although the scenes weren't a true flash-forward, they are a hope for the future. Even Riggs told press some version of that could potentially be seen down the line.
"This reality that Carl is envisioning is definitely a possibility and it [could] happen if Rick kind of listens to Carl and sees his side of things," Riggs said.
At the best, the scenes were a nice little nod to the giant flash-forward in the comics.

On Tuesday the Census Bureau released its annual report "Income and Poverty in the United States: 2013″ which provides information on poverty and incomes. The report has a number of implications for people of color and those in poverty. Here are a few highlights.
The poverty rate is down for the first time since 2006.
In 2013, 14.5 percent of people in the United States — or nearly one in every six Americans — were in poverty according to the official poverty rate, compared to 15% of people in 2012. This is the first time the official poverty rate has gone down since 2006.
Things may be improving for Hispanic* households.
Hispanic households saw a real median income increase of 3.5 percent between 2012 and 2013, their first annual increase in median income since 2000. Further, Hispanics were the only major racial or ethnic group to see a statistically significant change in their poverty rate. From 2012 to 2013 the rate fell from 25.6 percent to 23.5 percent and the number of Hispanics in poverty fell from 13.6 million to 12.7 million.
What remains unclear is which groups of Hispanics left poverty.This is largely due to the way that the Census collects race data. The major race groups used are Black, non-Hispanic White and Asian. Hispanic is considered an ethnicity, not a race. However, the term Hispanic covers a very diverse group of people in the United States, some of whom are White, others Black, indigenous or native, as well as recent immigrants and not-so-recent immigrants. Did only certain groups of Hispanics see this decrease in poverty? It is impossible to say.
Economic Recovery isn't for Everyone.
Real median household income is still well below 2001 levels for all families. Yet, some groups are recovering faster than others. For non-Hispanic whites median household income is still down 5.6 percent, and for Hispanics it is 8.7 percent lower than pre- 2001 recession levels. Asian-Americans — who experience the highest median income of any racial group — are seeing the second slowest recovery. Their median incomes are 11.1 percent below what they were in 2000. African-American household incomes, however, remain 13.8 percent lower than they were fourteen years ago. Black people still have the highest poverty rate at 27.2 percent.
A poor man's recession.
The recession didn't only disproportionately impact Black Americans. Those at the lower end of the income distribution were also more affected than those at the top. Between 1999 (just before the dot-com recession of the early 2000s) and 2013, incomes of the poorest 10 percent of households fell by 14.3 percent. Middle class families didn't fare much better — the median household saw it's annual income fall by nearly 9 percent over the same time period. On the other end of the spectrum, the wealthiest 10 percent of households saw no discernible declines in their incomes. This means that those with the lowest incomes saw the greatest declines in income, while those with the most were hardly affected.
For more information, check out the full Census Bureau report here.
*I use the term Hispanic when referring to the Census data because it is the way the data is organized by the Census Bureau. I respect that many people do not identify with this term. The Census considers Hispanic an ethnicity, not a race. This means that a person can be both Hispanic and a member of a certain race (i.e. Black, White, Asian, etc) for the purposes of Census data collection.

Regency funerals, Cambridge riots, and a travel notice
I'm writing one story and researching/thinking about/percolating another story which actually has something like 30K already written but I've had on hold.
The one I've actually been writing is The New Bride of Banner's Edge. It's ostensibly a Regency romance, so it should be light and fun and frothy, but because this is me and I'm nothing if not a slightly warped soul, the new bride of the title begins the story a widow.
I hope the romance-y bit kicks in at some point.
So last week, I went through a Google search to figure out Georgian and Regency era English funeral and burial customs. I knew embalming began in the U.S. during the Civil War, but were bodies embalmed in 1804? Did they have funeral directors? And what about this idea that women didn't attend funerals?
Granted, this can be skimmed over in the interests of, well, getting to the romance-y bits, but the answers turned out to be: no, embalming wasn't a thing in England, the dead were washed and laid in a shroud in a coffin in a room in their house, and other facts and things I can't quite remember at the moment. Women often didn't attend funerals (because emotions in public=bad), but sometimes they did.
Jane's husband dies in Epsom, but he's buried in Kent, so that means the coffin needs to travel. It'll only take about a day or so of travel though, so I think it'll be okay.
The second thing I've researched recently is women's higher education, specifically in the late nineteenth century in England because I want a character in the Victorian story, Beatrice, to attend university. I'm duly reading a book called Bluestockings: The Remarkable Story of the First Women To Fight For an Education right now.
There were women's colleges by the 1890s and many of the major universities in Britain granted women full degrees--except Oxford and Cambridge, which admitted women as students into women's colleges like St. Hilda's, Lady Margaret Hall, Somerville College (where Vera Brittain went), Girton, Newnham Hall and others. The female students were allowed to attend lectures at the universities, sit their exams, study full courses, but they weren't allowed to take degrees from Oxford or Cambridge.
I'm still a little shaky on what this means exactly, but basically, I think it means that they didn't get diplomas at the end.
In 1897, Cambridge University voted whether to include the female students at the various Cambridge-satellite women's college as full members of the university--to grant them full degrees and allow them to be part of the governing of the university.
In protest, the male students created an effigy of the typical female undergraduate on a bicycle, hung it outside of a building, and held banners saying things like "No Gowns For Girtonites" and "Varsity For Men."
And there's photographic evidence!
Look at this nonsense!
At any rate, the resolution did not pass and in celebration (no doubt drunken celebration), a crowd of men tore down the effigy, tore it to pieces, decapitated it, and then stuffed it through the locked gates of Newnham College.
Beatrice would be giving an elaborate eyeroll upon hearing this story.
Oh, also: this post will be my last for a while. I'm traveling overseas and won't be back until the end of March. I'll be back in April with news posts galore, I'm sure.

To everyone - especially teachers, school board members, school administrators and parents,
Here, below, are some communications from the last several days. Communicating works and we need 10 times this number, coming from every direction.
To those who know our public schools best
Public school folks can make a big difference here. Our schools are under assault. Testifying is important, as many have done. Talking with legislators is important. But its time to go beyond that. The people of New Hampshire need to hear from you and benefit from your insight on the impact of this legislation, an insight the rest of us don't have.
People need to hear directly, authoritatively, about the impact of legislation that puts each parents directly in charge of every element of their students' course work (HB 542, passed) and would give full high school credit for Lawn Mowing 101 (HB 1575) or move all curriculum authority to the Legislature (HB 219, passed the House) or take many millions of dollars out of the public schools and put it into private schools (HB 1607 and SB 372)
Two immediate proposals: First and most obvious, it's OpEd's and letters to the editors in all the papers you can reach. Joe Onosco showed how you can reach every big paper in the state if you try (look here, scroll down). The Defending New Hampshire Public Education web site has all the info you need but there's a lot of it, so if you want help winnowing, let me know.
Second, I would like to make little one-on-one video interviews of teachers, school boards members, administrators or parents talking about these issues as you see them. Any time, any place. I'd put them on the web site. I know that feels like a kind of unwelcome exposure, and most don't feel it's their place. It's not a matter of self-interest. And it's not a matter of how much you know about the legislation. We'd talk ahead about that so that you can talk about the impact on your school.
The interviews would be very powerful in giving people a sense of the realities of this legislative assault. And, have no doubt, this is for all the marbles.
Last 3 days in the Portsmouth Herald
The Herald has been particularly strong in covering this legislative assault.
David Borden's Letter today: School Scholarships Bill is Bad Legislation
My OpEd Sunday: Voucher legislation threatens N.H.'s public schools
Tom Slater's letter Saturday: Free Staters Attack Public Schools
My Recent Tweets
I know most of you aren't on Twitter. Don't resist. Realize that, at some point, you're going to do it! Do it now. Follow me (@billduncan). You'll soon see many others that you can keep track of with little effort.
Here are my tweets from the last few days (mine always lead to clickable links). See what you're missing?
Why do voucher advocates object to academic accountability for private schools receiving public money? http://bit.ly/wHvNE2
If you liked HB 542, objecting to any curriculum, you love HB 1575, substituting Lawn Mowing 101 for Algebra II! http://bit.ly/yUnwLV
Will competition from school vouchers make New Hampshire public schools improve? No. bit.ly/xIBpmu
Those anti-public school advocates! The stories they tell! You just can't take them at face value: bit.ly/zOGvPr
If you hear "competition from vouchers will improve New Hampshire public schools," don't believe it!! bit.ly/AtCNIi

We are really looking forward to our trip to Japan this summer. It is an amazing opportunity for our family and a great reason for me to learn simple, natural methods used in Japan for beauty, cleaning and healing. The first post in the series explores simple ideas for creating a Japanese inspired natural beauty plan. In addition to the ingredients on the Terrific Twenty list, you will also need the following:
- Green Tea
- Rice Water
- Awesome Sun Protection
Most everyone is aware of the awesome benefits of green tea. Green tea helps to fight the effects of aging, speeds up your metabolism, acts as an antibacterial, etc. You can drink green tea or use it as a topical beauty treatment. I need a break from coconut oil and apple cider vinegar so exploring different substances is most welcome. One of the best benefits of green tea for me has come from the anti inflammatory properties. Most everything seems to make my skin blotchy and red, particularly the endless amount of coffee I enjoy; green tea on the other hand leaves me energized with out the caffeine jitters and red, blotchy skin. In addition to drinking green tea I would suggest checking out the following green tea beauty treatments:
Green Tea Steamer
Steep two bags of green tea in a bowl of water. Place face over bowl while it is steaming. You may want to cover your head with a towel to keep the steam contained.
Green Tea Toner
Steep two bags of green tea in two cups of water and let cool. Use a cotton ball to swipe the face, gently. Face should feel smooth and pores refined.
Green Tea Foot Soak
Empty tea bags into a bowl of warm water and allow feet to soak until you feel rejuvenated.
Green Tea Hair Rinse
Steep 2 bags of green tea in 2-3 cups water. Let cool. Following your regular shampoo and conditioning routine rinse hair with the cooled green tea. I had great results from this one; added a lot of body to my hair. I took a break and put the leftover tea bags on my eyes for ten minutes while my hair dried. One thing I have found with these hair rinses (including the ACV rinse) is that you do not want to use them too often; perhaps once every other week or even once a month. However, everyone is different.
Green Tea Bags for Eyes
Reuse your green tea bags by placing them in the fridge and placing them over your eyes when you have ten spare minutes. Ahhh relaxation.
I read that rice water has long been a beauty secret of the Geisha, so I decided to give it a try. Making rice water is quite easy. After boiling the rice, pour the excess water into a jar. You may have to add filtered water to get the desired consistency: a white cloudy mixture. Keep it in the fridge. Rice water may be used as a toner or face cleanser.
Rice/Coconut Oil Scrub
Although this does not contain rice water, rice can be used to do other great things.
What You Need:
- 1 TBSP ground rice
- 2 TBSP melted coconut oil
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 2 drops lavender essential oil
What To Do:
- Grind the rice. I use a coffee bean grinder.
- Mix all the ingredients together.
- Scrub hands and feet with this scrub.
- Rinse.
Awesome Sun Protection
Protect yourself from the sun! Hats, sunglasses, non toxic sun screen, umbrellas! Just do it!

Page 162 – Good Day
It's not too hard to believe that this was one of the better days in a long time for Sun and Sabrina, judging by their 'PhotoBooth' pictures. Actually, that was a lot of fun to do and showing them as friends is always fun to write and draw. Of course, in their line of work, you'd think its inevitable they'll be facing each other in the ring as competitors and thats going to be a whole other story. For now though, BFF's and this page puts the cap on these Upstart girls for the rest of the chapter.
One small peek into what one of the other Upstart Girls is doing and then, onto the TV Tournament!

The auto industry in Detroit has been dismantled for decades, leaving the "Big Three," General Motors, the Ford Motor Company, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles US barely standing. Its neighborhoods have become a virtual wasteland of burned-out homes and empty fields. Unions were to blame, they said, but with Third World countries offering up cheap labor, the corporate bottom line, not human need, took precedence.
Legalize to Educate
Since the knowledge of industrial hemp for fuel and materials has resurfaced, those in the know are looking to the auto industry for real changes in our transportation's environmental footprint.
In 2013, BMW announced its i3 electric model was made lighter and more efficient by using hemp fibers throughout; while Ford announced its cars will have 30 percent worth of recycled content.
Cannabis as medicine has been legal in Michigan since voters gave it the nod in 2008, with 18 cities decriminalizing its use altogether, including Detroit. Verbiage on Michigan's Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs' (LARA) website states, "The program implements the statutory tenets of this act in such a manner that protects the public and assures the confidentially of its participants."
Nice words, but not exactly true, as the state nor its cities and counties have adopted workable ordinances to protect those who would help patients with safe access under state law.
Dozens of recent raids have shut down medical storefronts operating without the safety net of a business license. Dispensaries operate under caregiver licenses only, allowing just five patients per license under a drafty umbrella.
Now anticipating legalization for recreational use, cities in Michigan are panicking, enacting bans that would stop further education on good medicine. But the irony of legalization is the lack of persecution actually allows medicine makers to come out of the smoky closet of prohibition, with communities getting healed–not wasted–and less money going to pharmaceutical companies.
As Detroit grapples with its ever crumbling economy, the hope is that the education of cannabis as medicine, and the bounty that hemp has to offer, will reach its officials in time to make a difference for many.
Petroleum Based Pharma
In 1949, Morris Allison Bealle penned The Drug Story, tracing the beginning of the petroleum-based pharmaceutical industry to the 1860s and William Rockefeller's first patent of raw petroleum as a cure for cancer while revealing its frauds.
Father to John D. Rockefeller, William was a farmer in upstate New York until 1850 when he moved to Cleveland and registered as a "physician," peddling his snake oil of raw petroleum called "Nujol" or "new oil," with son John's Standard Oil researchers seeing huge profits from byproduct that would have otherwise been tossed.
Today there are more than 300 cannabis dispensaries within Detroit's city limits, and while they recently adopted a business license process, it's limited to "Medical Marihuana Caregiver Centers," with each employee of said centers requiring a caregiver license. Any retail center operating prior to the new ordinance will be noted as "operating illegally."
Illegally Healed
To make matters worse, the lack of education on ingesting cannabis as real medicine–not just smoking to relieve symptoms and getting high–is prominent throughout even the cannabis community.
For along with Detroit's newfound ordinances allowing licensing, the city simultaneously enacted a ban on concentrates made with Butane hash oil (BHO), leaving many shelves empty–albeit for flower to smoke.
Detroit patients must now travel to other cities for edible or topical products–boosting the economy of more fortunate neighborhoods. Or, they go back to the black market, as was witnessed by this writer during a visit to a Detroit apartment when a guest emerged from a back bedroom, hands full of infused gummy bears, topical salve, and a few cartridges of CBD smoking oil.
The Detroit resident purchasing the products was suffering from myriad side effects from cancer treatments, medicating illegally within his own city limits, in a medically legal state.
As Detroit grapples with its ever crumbling economy, the hope is that the education of cannabis as medicine, and the bounty that hemp has to offer, will reach its officials in time to make a difference for many. Until then, the plant continues to prevail for patients in spite of the Midwestern mindset and the powers that be.
Backstory: A Brief History Of Plant-Based Fuels And Materials In The Automotive Industry
Henry Ford and Thomas Edison were close friends. The two owned winter homes next door to each other in Florida, where Edison had a botanical library researching industrial uses of plants. Both were friends of farmers and convinced that the energy from plants and the industrial materials they produced could be used for the greater good.
By 1941 Ford had created a car made of plastic manufactured and fueled mostly from plants.
"It will be a car of darn sight better design in every form," he announced via the New York Times in February of 1941. "And don't forget the motor car business is just one of the industries that can find new uses for plastics, made from what's grown in the land!"
Three hundred pounds lighter than Ford's steel-framed model and said to be more durable than metal, his plastic car from the garden was made from a combination of "strong fibers," that included corn, ramie, hemp, straw, soy, and slash pine fiber–fueled, in part, by a combination of ethanol made from corn.
Ironically, DuPont had already created the first synthetic material from petroleum in 1935, with its own patent for Nylon registered in 1937. Nylon initially replaced silk for women's hosiery, but the petroleum-based material was just the start of a plastic industrial revolution that spawned the pharmaceutical industry–successfully replacing plant-based medicines.
Though electric cars had been produced around the world since the late 1800s, saving energy via batteries, combined with a lack of speed, did not make them attractive to the consumer. Ford himself built one as an experiment in 1895 and was said to have had a personal collection of electric cars made at the time.
It wasn't until 1913 that Ford announced via the New York Times, "Within a year, I hope, we shall begin the manufacture of an electric automobile…The fact is that Mr. Edison and I have been working for some years on an electric automobile which would be cheap and practicable… The problem so far has been to build a storage battery of lightweight, which would operate for long distance without recharging. Mr. Edison has been experimenting with such a batter for some time."
An energy plant was purchased in Niagra Falls and a manufacturing plant was set-up in Dearborn, but all was lost by fire in December of 1914. Instead, Ford went into production with his combustion engine that was said to be less costly to the consumer.
Some speculate the drug war was created out of sheer prejudice to minorities, specifically blacks and Hispanics where cannabis, then hemp, were concerned. Did the powers that be use prejudice as smoke and mirrors to demonize hemp, and the use of plant-based fuels and industrial materials?
We can't change the past, but we can move forward with the newfound knowledge of the power of plants, specifically hemp, and its relationship to the sun and the energy found naturally on our planet.

Beaulieu Wedding Photography
Susanne & Aled
Just a quick post today, out of twenty five birthdays I think I've been to Beaulieu for two of them!. I went to Beaulieu motor museum as a small child, & have the photo, that pretty much everyone who's been there has –
The photo of a young me, standing in front of James Bond's Aston Martin DB4. Yup – 007's car. One of the coolest car's ever. ergo, I'm cool by association. or not.
My second time to Beaulieu was for my 25th, although with Susanne & Aled getting married, which is slightly more important, & the reason I was there; So I should probably refer to it as their wedding day, rather than my birthday…
So, without further ado here are a few of my favourite photos from

Well, I'm down 1.2 lbs this week, and 4.2 since we started, although my body fat is about the same. (My nutritionist blames that on the inaccuracy of the body fat calculating instrument). So I decided I've earned it! I've been craving pizza like crazy so I had pizza. I ate half of a large pizza. I didn't know I could eat that much pizza. I will definitely have to go on a nice long run tomorrow.
What I've learned:
- I'm obsessive about treats. And I still am. There's nothing like a cupcake to motivate me to finish a long run! But I don't need cupcakes all the time.
- I know I can eat clean for 11 days. It really wasn't that terrible, and I although I was kind of hungry sometimes, better planning could have helped (more fresh veggies to fill me up, less salad)!
- My body felt pretty good, and do long runs during those 11 days except for the work-related stress and seasonal allergies.

It's that time of the week again!!! My favorite day!! I am Co-Hosting today with another #SundaySupper favorite of mine!! Laura from Small Wallet Big Appetite is here with me today! Laura is a wife and a busy mom of one who somehow squeezes in time to work freelance. She has many passions in her life; family, traveling and gardening to name a few. But second only to her family, is cooking. Laura's love for cooking started at a very early age. She remembers when she was about seven, waking up early, pushing a chair against the kitchen counter and making her parents a surprise breakfast. Now while she couldn't attest to how good it was it was, it was the start of her love for preparing meals for others. It is more than just enjoying the food itself, it is the anticipation of having someone take that first bite. I can agree with that Laura! I think that must be when you really know if you truly enjoy cooking, that feeling you get when the person you are cooking for takes that bite and enjoys it every other bite after it!
It is also Laura's dream to inspire those who are afraid to cook or feel that they are just not good at cooking, to believe in themselves enough to at least try. She believes that everyone is capable of cooking amazing meals and that with a little bit of guidance and encouragement that people can achieve more in the kitchen then they ever thought possible. That is why she strive to photograph her recipes in cooking steps, because she knows you can learn so much from seeing it rather than just reading it. I agree with Laura here too, I work so much better with visuals! I love the cook books that show pictures and steps, it's always nice to see what "it should" look like while you're attempting a recipe for the first time.
Laura also believes that when it comes to dealing with debt the best way to reduce your family's budget is in the kitchen. At different points in our lives we all struggle with our budgets and it can seem impossible to pay off our debts let along save any money. But Laura has found that when she tackles her food budget and makes certain lifestyle changes with her families eating, she saw a huge difference in the amount of money they saved each week. You might be amazed at how significant a small change can make! This is one of the things I love the most about reading Laura's blog, I could always use a good tip when grocery shopping. Nobody wants to be limited, you really don't have to if you stick to the tips Laura talks about on her blog.
Check out Laura's Pantry, and see what she always has on hand to be able to stick to a certain budget. You can also take a look at her Conversions page, this may be helpful while cooking when you're not sure of everyday conversions, hey I even used it yesterday when I had to give my daughter amoxicillin for her sinus infection, I needed to find out how many millimeters was in two teaspoons! Thanks Laura
Another section I will be going to sometime next year is a section called Baby-Led Weaning. I heard a lot of mommies talk about this after my daughter was born, I went to mommy groups a lot and this subject was discussed a lot however I never looked into, I believe I may not have the issues I have with my daughter with eating close to nothing…….could be avoided if I had tried Baby-Led Weaning, so you better believe that I'll be trying next year with Baby F. 🙂
So before I move onto what awesome recipe I've tried of Laura's, lets give her a hand and a special Thank You for Co-Hosting with me today! 🙂
If you remember back in October I hosted the Crock Pot Challenge of 2012. Well Laura was one of the participants who cooked 5 dishes of crock pot meals and posted about them on her page. Well one of her dishes caught my eye and I've been meaning to make it for a few reasons, one because it's a side dish and I can honestly say I've never cooked a side dish in the crock before, and two because I've never cooked with Leeks before, yes I know I know, crazy, but I haven't. Well pregnancy sent me into a whirlwind of nausea and tired days so when Laura came up on my list for a Featured Friday I knew right away what dish of hers I wanted to make!!!! Yay!
Crockpot Barley and Leek Risotto
1.260 Liters (5 1/4 c.) low-sodium vegetable broth
(1 1/2 c.) pearled barley, rinsed
1 medium leek, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
1 tsp thyme
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus more for serving
Chop up leeks so they are in thin small slices. I like to chop the leek in half and then chop up the stalk.
In a slow cooker, combine the broth with the barley, leek, thyme, garlic, 1 tsp of salt and 1/4 tsp of pepper.
Cook on low until the barley is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 4 hours.
Stir in the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Spoon the barley risotto into bowls and serve, with additional cheese or any other toppings of your choice. I added peas to mine because it's one of the few veggies that my daughter has been eating lately!
I think it has the Madison Approval!!

Black Bean, Zucchini & Olive Tacos with Garlic-Lemon Yogurt
This past week has been so busy! I've been trying to finish up my reports which are due next week (for a certification exam in October). And we've done some out of town field trips this week (Squamish and Sechelt, for those of you that know the area). Time has been flying by! E has been cooking a lot of the meals recently which has been amazing. These tacos I made a couple of months ago though, and they started my love for Appetite for Reduction. I remember reading the reviews before buying the book and someone complained about there being a whole chapter for salads. But they're meal salads, which I'm always looking for recipes for. They include protein, grains and tons of vegetables and I love them. I'll be sharing some of them soon.
This taco filling is really flavourful. I was skeptical of adding in olives with black beans and salsa verde, but it works really well. These are actually the first soft tacos I've ever made at home. I've made burritos many times but not cute little tacos like these. I used regular 2% yogurt for the sauce, but use soy yogurt to make these vegan.
I'm going to go pick up my CSA vegetables now. I can't wait because we're getting tomatoes this week!

Black Bean, Zucchini & Olive Tacos with Garlic-Lemon Yogurt
Adapted from Appetite for Reduction
1 tsp olive oil
2 zucchini (1 lb), small dice
2 jalapenos, seeded, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup pitted kalamata olives, chopped
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground coriander
6 oz salsa verde
19 oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
8 (6 inch) corn tortillas
Preheat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and jalapeno to the oil and sprinkle with the salt. Saute for about 7 minutes, until the zucchini is lightly browned. Add the garlic, olives, cumin, and coriander, and saute for 2 minutes more.
Add the salsa verde and black beans. Cook for 5 more minutes; the salsa should reduce a bit so that it's juicy but not soupy.
Place the tortillas in a moist paper towel and heat in the microwave for 1 minute on high. Serve with Garlic-Lemon Yogurt and chopped green onions.
Garlic-Lemon Yogurt
1 cup 2% plain yogurt
2 cloves garlic, grated with a Microplane or finely minced
zest from 1/2 lemon
juice from 1 lemon (about 3 tbsp)
1/2 tsp agave nectar
Add all ingredients in a bowl and stir well.

You might be familiar with how to take a screenshot in Windows or on MacOS, but if you're new to Chromebooks, you might be a little unsure about how to do it. The process isn't drastically different, but it's far from the same. While even the best Chromebooks don't include a "Print screen" key, learning how to take a screenshot on a Chromebook is actually fairly simple — whether you need to grab the entire screen or just a portion.
Quick tips
- Hold down Ctrl + Switch window key to capture a full screenshot.
- Hold down Ctrl + Shift + Switch window key to capture a partial screenshot.
Capturing a full screenshot
To take a screenshot of everything you see on your Chromebook's screen at once, hold down the Ctrl key and press the Switch window key. The latter button is typically located in the top row, in between the Full-screen and Brightness down buttons, and looks like a rectangle followed by two lines.
Once you press both keys, you will see a notification in the bottom corner of the screen alerting you that your screenshot has been saved. Screenshot image files save directly to the Chromebook's Downloads folder, so you can take and access screenshots even when offline, and are labeled with the date and time they were recorded. Click the notification to open the Downloads folder and select the image file.
Note: Screenshots are saved locally and won't be available on Google Drive unless you manually move the file. For more tips on how to use Google Drive, check out our guide.
If you happen to have a Chromebook with a 360-degree hinge like a Pixelbook, there's one more method you can use for capturing a full screenshot.
Capturing a partial screenshot
Chrome OS can also specify a portion of your screen to take and save a snapshot of. Here's how to do it.
Step 1: Hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys at once, then press the Switch window button.
Step 2: Chrome's cursor will be temporarily replaced with a crosshair. Click and drag a square across the portion of the screen you want to save, then release the trackpad or mouse button.
The partial screenshot will be saved in the Downloads folder, the same as a full screenshot.
Screenshots in tablet mode
A number of Chromebooks are two-in-ones or tablets where you may not have immediate access to a keyboard. Don't worry, there's an easy screenshot shorthand you can use in tablet mode. Simply press the Power and Volume Down buttons at the same time. Your screen will register the screenshot and take an image of the entire screen.
If you have a stylus that you're using in tablet mode, you should be able to use a stylus tool to take a screenshot of a specific area of the screen and annotate it as needed.
Other tips and tricks
Copying screenshots
Chrome OS doesn't save screenshots as copied images like Windows does when the Print screen button is pressed.
If you'd like to simply copy a screenshot (for insertion into an image editor, for example), watch the notification that appears above the system clock. Click the Copy to clipboard button, then press Ctrl+V when you want to paste it.
Editing screenshots
The screenshots captured by Chrome OS are ready to share, but if you want to do a little more with them, you should familiarize yourself with Chrome's built-in image editor. Here's how to access it.
Step 1: Open the Downloads folder and double-click your screenshot to open it in the image viewer.
Step 2: Click the pen icon in the bottom-right corner of the window to enter edit mode. Tools for cropping, rotation, and brightness adjustments will appear at the bottom of the window.
Step 3: When you're done, click the pen icon again to finalize your edits. The built-in editor doesn't allow you to save copies, so you may want to copy the image manually before working on it.
Using external keyboards
If you're using a Chrome-powered desktop (also known as a Chromebox) or if you've plugged an external keyboard (these are some of our favorites) into your Chromebook, the keyboard probably uses a standard function key row instead of Chrome's dedicated button row.
The good news is that the function keys do the same job — F1 goes back, F2 goes forward, etc. The F5 button works as the Switch window button on standard keyboards, so the screenshot command becomes Ctrl + F5.
Other screenshot tools
The built-in image tools for Chrome OS are a bit anemic, but luckily there are plenty of apps and extensions on Google's Chrome Web Store to help add extra functionality. Here are some helpful picks:
Lightshot: Lightshot is a great beginner option that allows you to drag and drop a screenshot over whatever section of your screen that you want. You can edit the screenshot in place, then download it or send it to the cloud. It's easy to use and widely applicable for most purposes.
FireShot: Save an entire page as an image without multiple screenshots. You can save in multiple formats and send them directly to OneNote or email.
Awesome Screenshot: For those who want a broader, more powerful tool, Awesome Screenshot allows you to choose between screen capture and screencasting so you can also take video whenever you want. The app supports annotations and easy blurring as well.
SuperChrome: If you primarily take screenshots of webpages, you'll want to take a look at SuperChrome, which adds tools to your browsing experience that allow you to screenshot an entire website, no matter how awkwardly shaped it may be. There's also one-click sharing, editing options, and conversion to PDFs among other formats.

St. Vincent's plans layoffs, other cuts
BRIDGEPORT -- Officials at St. Vincent's Medical Center plan an unspecified number of layoffs and other cuts to help offset the expected loss of revenue from state funds, federal sequestration and other sources.
Hospital officials said Wednesday that "cost restructuring" will include the loss of some jobs.
"We're not sure of the number right now, but the layoffs will be across all levels," said Dr. Stuart Marcus, the hospital president.
It's not known what other cuts the hospital will make, but Senior Vice President Dianne Auger said, "All operating expenses in our organization are under review."
St. Vincent's Medical Center isn't in financial dire straits. According to the state Office of Health Care Access, the hospital finished fiscal year 2012 about $87.1 million in the black. However, Marcus said, that could quickly change due to a variety of factors. For instance, in the state budget proposed by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, hospitals in the state stand to lose $550 million over two years.
Marcus said that translates to a loss of about $30 million for St. Vincent's. The hospital expects to lose nearly $5 million in fiscal year 2014 because of the federal sequestration. Marcus said that due to changes made under the Affordable Care Act, fewer people are seeking care at hospitals, and instead are seeking lower-cost providers.
All of those factors mean the hospital could face financial trouble down the road, Marcus said, and St. Vincent's officials wanted to make changes accordingly.
"We are not in crisis but we want to be proactive," he said.
St. Vincent's likely won't be the only hospital making cuts, said Michele Sharp, spokeswoman for the Connecticut Hospital Association. If the state budget passes as is, she said, "it is inevitable that hospitals across the state will be forced to cut jobs, programs and services," Sharp said. "Additionally, because of sequestration, Connecticut hospitals will lose $448.7 million over 10 years. In this environment of great uncertainty, hospitals are preparing as best they can. They are committed to providing excellent, safe care to each and every person who walks through their doors, 24 hours a day, while building a more sustainable future."
State government has balked at hospitals' characterizing the reduction in state aid as a cut, when it is actually flat funding. The state's hospitals received $1.7 billion dollars last year, and the governor's proposed budget holds that funding level.
Auger and Marcus said staff cuts at St. Vincent's are still at an early stage, but everything is on the table.
That might include administrative salaries. This week, the state released figures on the 10 highest-paid employees at each of the state's hospitals for fiscal year 2012.

Midlands insolvencies fall during Q2, but the environment remains challenging
The number of companies falling into administration in the Midlands fell sharply during the second quarter of 2017.
Analysis by KPMG of notices in the London Gazette shows that the number of companies in the Midlands entering administration fell from 41 in the first quarter of the year to 28 in the second quarter. This is also a fall when compared to the same period last year (Q2 2016) which saw 42 corporate insolvencies. The picture across England and Wales mirrors this trend, with insolvencies across the country decreasing from 327 in the first quarter of the year to 280 in the second quarter.
However, while the overall numbers both nationally and in the Midlands have softened slightly, KPMG's analysis shows the environment still remains tough for retailers and companies across the wider consumer and leisure industries, with 27 retailers entering insolvency over the quarter nationally, including high street brands Jaeger, Joy and Jacques Vert, and jeweller Theo Fennell.
Chris Pole, restructuring partner at KPMG in the Midlands, says that he expects the dip seen in Q2 to level back out over the second half of the year, as companies across the region contend with further economic uncertainty and a continued gradual slowdown in consumer spending.
He said:
"On the face of it, the latest figures seem encouraging and does reflect what we are seeing on the ground, with much of our current work revolving around strategy and options, cost reduction and working capital management rather than insolvencies. However, we should not be lulled into a false sense of security, particularly as there are still certain hotspots which give cause for concern."
Looking at which sectors were most vulnerable within the first half of the year in the Midlands, the building and construction sector fared the worst, with 11 businesses entering administration since the turn of the year, whilst the manufacturing sector experienced nine administration appointments over the same period. Both of these sectors were largely impacted by an increase in costs for imported raw materials, which subsequently, squeezed profit margins.
Chris added:
"There are other clouds on the horizon. The impact of Brexit remains to be seen and the recent election has undoubtedly introduced greater uncertainty resulting in a negative effect on consumer and corporate confidence.
"While inflation for the month of June was down for the first time in over a year, it's still well above average earnings growth, and there is continued speculation that interest rates may soon rise. Additionally, adverse exchange rate movements have impacted certain sectors, with businesses expressing concern over their ability to pass on additional costs to their customers.
"This concern echoes the results of KPMG's recent survey of CEOs which indicated that the majority of UK business leaders are subdued about their growth prospects over the next three years. Indeed, one in two CEOs believe their business will grow by less than two per cent over the next few years, while 74 percent warn that inflationary increases mean they will have little choice but to pass on increased costs to their customers.
"All of which leads me to conclude that the decline in insolvency numbers seen over the last three months may just be a temporary blip."

Before the match
The first quarterfinal meeting between the teams in Poltava ended in a confident 4-0 win for the Pitmen. In the return game, Mircea Lucescu could not deploy the internationals, however Maksym Malyshev joined the team at the last moment, appearing from the off. Otherwise, the Donetsk line-up might be called experimental, with Bohdan Sarnavskyi taking the place between the sticks, with Taison putting on the captain's armband and the bench featuring the young players from the U21 team - Mykhailo Shyshka and Oleksiy Zinkevych.
First half
Shakhtar got off to a confident start, getting the ball under control and creating a few dangerous situations near Poltava's goal in the opening stages of the game. After that, the game calmed down and towards the middle of the first half, the Pitmen stepped it up again, with Taison shooting dangerously twice from outside the box. Oleksandr Gladkyy missed on a great chance and hit the goalie following Bernard's pass. And on 28 minutes, the ball unexpectedly hit the back of the opposing goal. Khlyobas struck a low free-kick from some 35 metres, with Sarnavskyi being late on the ball just to see the ball hit the net – 0-1. Shortly afterwards, the Donetsk team could have levelled it, but Vasyl Kobin failed to fire it past the away goalkeeper from a good position. On 38 minutes, a great set-piece by Bernard whizzed by the top corner. The ending of the half was marked by Shakhtar's continuous attacking moves, but the score remained unchanged.
Second half
Immediately after the break the opponents exchanged dangerous attacks, with the Pitmen continuing to boss it. At the end of an hour of the game, Kobin produced a great free kick, with the visiting keeper palming it off for the corner. Then Gladkyy missed two excellent chances. On 65 minutes, Mircea Lucescu made a double substitution, fielding Facundo Ferreyra and Marlos. The Argentine immediately earned a penalty, which was immaculately converted by Bernard – 1-1. On 70 minutes, Eduardo replaced Taison, putting on the captain's armband. And the game itself got more open, it was the end-to-end action with the opponents trying to score the winning goal. The Pitmen were closer to success. Eduardo could have excelled, but the keeper once again came to the rescue of Poltava just as he did in a one-on-one situation involving Kobin. However, the visitors converted their chance on 88 minutes, when Khlyobas grabbed a brace firing it into the bottom corner – 1-2. In injury time, Bernard sent a volley only to see the Poltava keeper cope with his attempt. That concluded the game.
Thus, Shakhtar became the first Ukrainian Cup semi-finalists, and on April 6 the other participants in the semi-final will be known.

SCCM policy refresh with Windows desktop lock/unlock
This morning I was reading that in SCCM 2012 if you have a Windows 7 and above client, the SCCM machine & user policy is refreshed when you lock and unlock a desktop (Windows key + L)…. I wasn't aware of this. So I thought I'd try it out…
It appears that the material I was reading isn't completely correct….
In my testing, I monitored the PolicyAgent log and found:
• Machine policy refresh is NOT triggered when you lock and unlock your desktop
• User policy refresh IS triggered immediately when you unlocked your desktop, however there is no user policy action when you lock the desktop
I use a maximum of one Google Ad per post to help offset some of my blog hosting costs.

itamin IV (intravenous), often called a Myers' Cocktail, administers a concentrated dose of vitamin C, B12, B Complex as well as minerals such as zinc and magnesium and amino acids like glutathione directly into the blood stream. This treatment can be very effective because 100% of the vitamins/minerals taken via an IV are delivered to the cells in contrast to supplements taken orally which are at lower dosages and absorption rates. Thus Vitamin IVs can be a solution for those who have digestive issues. Vitamin IVs may be helpful in increasing immune function and as a supportive treatment for colds and flues, migraines, Epstein Barr, viral infections, fatigue, fibromyalgia, acute muscle spasms, asthma, allergies, and hyperthyroidism.
Patients have reported increased energy, reduced stress especially before and after surgery, and a faster healing process. Frequent travelers have reported an improvement in their jet lag symptoms.
Early clinical studies have showed high doses of Vitamin C done intravenously are helping cancer patients through chemotherapy and radiation treatments.
