Goats Go On Parade After 3 Snowstorms In A Week
A farmer decided to take his goats on parade in the snow after his farm with hit with three snowstorms in a week. Looks like the goats had some fun!
From Rumble:
This goat farmer had to dig a path out for her goats after three snowstorms in one week. The farm had to deal with huge piles of snow but once a path had been cleared the goats were happy to trek out to the field in an adorable single line formation.

I had such a great time this evening at the lighting of the tree in Alamo Plaza. What an amazing opportunity we had to be part of it. Thank you so much to Make A Wish and HEB. They are the best. The other young lady who also helped light the tree was such a sweet girl and an inspiration. She took my breath away with her zest for life. She just had some major surgery and she was smiling and having a blast. It's small things such as this that make me realize how truly precious life is and how blessed I am. I have pictures of the event and I will be getting more from Make a Wish so I'll post them. Grace did cry when she saw Santa but calmed down when he sang Jingle Bells with her (I told her that she said she wasn't going to cry but she still kept on crying). We also found out that HEB has indeed adopted Gracie's wish. We are so thankful to them. I was so overwhelmed by their generosity that I really felt like crying. Gracie not only got to ride in the carriage with Santa, she got a cool ornament that is hanging from the tree in Alamo Plaza that has her name on it, a gift bag from Radio Disney that was Tangled themed (she LOVES the doll with the super long hair), a $50 gift certificate to HEB and just the coolness of being part of that ceremony and the afterparty. It was an experience I will NEVER forget. On this post Thanksgiving Day, I have even more things to be thankful for.

Pre Thanksgiving
Gracie has been healthy for a month...knock on wood, Thank God! It does wonders for her mood, for the most part. We went to her school (me and dad) to eat Thanksgiving lunch with her. My intentions were to leave her there to take her nap and get stuff done but she gave me the sweet face and said, "I wanna go with Mama!"and of course I folded and brought her home. Most of her friends had left and I didn't have the heart to leave her. She was so good when we got back. I helped my parents take some things to Goodwill, bought 2 pies at Sam's and came home to clean the downstairs and wash the dog. Gracie stayed out of my way when I vacuumed and mopped ad she "helped"/watched me give Hope a bath (she stunk!) That's another great thing about this age, they want to be helpers. Grace really is a great helper. She helps unload the silverware from the dishwasher. She helps put the wet laundry into the dryer and take the dry clothes out of the dryer. She likes to hand me the hangers to hang the clothes.
I am cooking tomorrow and bringing the food (well, I'm making beans and the turkey breast this year) to my mom and dad's house. We'll spend the day with them. Friday we'll be lighting the tree in Alamo Plaza (well, Gracie will be using her "wand" with Santa). It's an exciting week. If it's on the news I'll post the link so you can see.

Things About Gracie...Age 2 going on 11
I was re-reading a post from last year when I wrote about 10 things I had learned about Gracie. So, I thought I would make an updated list about Gracie age 2 1/2 going on 11 (actually 3 but it seems like she's trying for 11)...
1. She has a great belly laugh and she likes to laugh especially at silly things
2. She's obsessed with the moon
3. She likes to watch airplanes in the sky
4. Her favorite thing to eat is hot dogs and to drink, Sprite
5. She likes to hop, especially down the stairs
6. She has to always have a blankie...her polka dot one is her current favorite
7. When you tell her she's silly or a turkey, she says, I no whatever, I Gracie.
8. Elmo, Yo Gabba Gabba and Max & Ruby are her favorite characters
9. She isn't much into desserts, mostly vanilla ice cream
10. She loves stickers
I can't believe that in a month, well a little over a month, she'll be 3. Time has flown by. I wonder what she'll be like at 3. She's constantly growing and changing. Before I know it, she'll be in school. All I know is that knock on wood, we've had a healthy 3 weeks (Thank you God!) and I pray it continues. Next week I'm off and she'll go to school 3 of those days. I plan on going to see Harry Potter, get some shopping, cleaning and work done. We'll see...it seems it never works out the way I plan.

I think it' s back on
We met with the pulmonologist today for our follow up and we discussed the tonsilectomy. He feels strongly that we should and I really respect his opinion so I think I will be scheduling it for the Christmas holiday break. My poor girl will be so uncomfortable for 2 weeks but in the end it should help her be healthier for her fontan in the summer. Her strep test came back negative which shoots down her cardiologist's theory that maybe she's a carrier...so it looks like it's a go.
A good thing that happened today is that my Gracie gets to help Santa light the tree in Alamo Plaza a week from Friday. It's a big deal. She was chosen because she's a Make A Wish kiddo and she gets to ride on the sleigh with him. I'm super stoked but hoping she doesn't freak out on seeing Santa like she did last year. I'm trying to prep her now. I need to find pictures of him so she knows who he is. So, next Friday night, my girl might be on the news but in a good way! I think this is going to be another great family memory to put in her lifebook.

We had a rough start this morning after almost two weeks of bliss...my girl has been healthy and happy...healthy is the best part. Anyways, I was rushing her to get ready. She was watching Max and Ruby while I was getting ready for work. She decided she didn't want to put on any clothes so I had to manuever her to get her clothes on. It was like putting clothes on a fish flopping on a dock. She was screaming the whole time so I turned off Max and Ruby. She calmed down enough to get her hair brushed and fixed and downstairs. She sees the leftover cheese on the table that I was too tired to clean up and she decides she wants shredded cheese to eat. I offer a cheese stick. NOPE, that won't do. Tears start flowing and then the mouth opens with the "WAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" I close the fridge and tell her it's either the cheesestick or nothing, then she throws up the "I WANT HOT DOG!" in the crying wail. We are running late, I have a 7:30 meeting and it's 7 and I still have to drop her off at school. I get her the hot dog. Because she has been a bratasaurus, no Max and Ruby in the car. That starts off another meltdown. I have told her in the past that when she stops crying and calms down I will listen. She's screaming at the top of her lungs she wants Max and Ruby and I'm telling her she needs to calm down then I can listen to her. I'm saying it at a low, calm tone. She stops crying but screams at me, "MAMA I CALM NOW!" Yeah, not so much. I can laugh at it now and at the time, I didn't think it was so funny. It wasn't until I was retelling the story to a teacher at my meeting when I heard how funny it was. I can only imagine what our arguments are going to be like when she becomes a tween or teen. I think I might need to get a precription for valium now!
But, other than that she has been doing well, knock on wood, Thank God. The second opinion really helped and her cardiologist wants another strep test while she is healthy. We'll talk to the pulmonologist on Monday. I'm praying we can put off the tonsil stuff for a year or so because it's incredibly painful at her age and I don't want her to have another painful surgery. I'm praying she does well this winter and her heart keeps on pumping strong so we can have surgery this summer. She amazes me every day with the progress she has made. She has come a long way.

I've been wanting to blog but it seems that I've been falling asleep next to my Gracie before I can get to it. Last night, poor Hope ended up spending most of the night outside because she didn't want to come in when I was getting ready for bed last night. I had every intention of going downstairs and letting Hope in after I had watched Mike and Molly and Children of the Paranormal that I had recorded the night before, but I fell asleep during Children of the Paranormal. Poor Hope is afraid of thunderstorms and I heard that it rained pretty hard around 11 p.m. I woke up at 2 a.m. when I heard the cold front coming through and I let her in. She looked at me like I was the meanest owner ever. I told her, "Hey, if you came in like I asked you to the first time, you wouldn't have been stuck outside for so long." I remember the days when Hope's safety and comfort were priorities for me...now not so much.
So, on the Grace front, I am currently dealing with whether or not to take out the adnoids, tonsils and put in a ear tube. We are getting a second opinion next week and I'm weighing in the pulmonologist's opinion (and cardiologist...now that I think about it he hasn't called me back! NOT COOL!) I know a lot of people think it's a slam dunk sort of thing to help cure her issues with strep throat but when you have a heart kiddo, you have to be more cautious. This procedure would have her in ICU at the end, not coming home. It's precautionary but it's PICU! The whole idea of PICU gives me the willies. We'll be there this summer for a few days so I really don't care to see it sooner. The other thing is that the procedure would be done at another hospital...the one that gave me someone else's meds and an EEG when I had the chicken pox (yeah, didn't need the brainscan...someone else's)...so I'm a little leery. I'm taking my time making this decision and making sure all of her doctors are on board.
Halloweeen was a fun time for Gracie and her cousin Brennan. They went trick or treating around his neighborhood. It was incredibly hilly and she walked most of it. She wouldn't let me hold her. Finally at the end of Brennan's street, she asked me to pick her up. I did. I was proud of my little Mulan. Yep, that's who she dressed as. On Saturday, I dressed her as Kai-Lan because she likes wearing her hair the Kai-Lan way. When she has her hair that way she says, "I no Gracie...I key-lan." Crazy girl!

We provide a single gradient-index (GRIN) profile for the crystalline lens in an updated age-dependent emmetropic-eye model. The parameters defining the GRIN profile include their variation with age and the dispersion of the refractive index in order to account for the increase in the positive-wave spherical aberration, for the constant chromatic difference in the refraction of the human eye, as well as for the decrease in the retinal-image quality with aging. In accounting for these ocular properties, the results show that first, the value of the dispersion parameters are invariant with age. Second, those parameters defining the distribution of the lens index cause the lens-center-index value to decrease slightly, and its position along the lens axis changes with age. Furthermore, these findings are in agreement with the lens paradox.

For a person with no experience, photography can be quite intimidating. The subject can quickly become overwhelming due to the multitude of information that photographers have access to. In the following article, you can find helpful, organized tips on how you can start shooting better pictures.
Choose what to focus on and what elements to include in your composition. A great picture will allow the viewer to see a particular aspect of the subject in the photograph. You should avoid showing too much when taking a photograph. To give an overview of a subject, take multiple pictures, instead of a single shot that may not have all of the details.
Be simple with your camera settings. Focus on learning a single aspect of your camera's settings before moving on to the others. You will be able to pivot your effort around the subject you are photographing. This avoids the common time-wasting confusion that ensnares many amateur photographers.
If your goal is to produce professional looking photos, you will have a much easier time if you purchase a professional-level camera. A dSLR camera is a great option for taking high-quality shots. This type of camera is popular among professional photographers, and plays a major role in the quality and appearance of their images.
Make sure you have a good sense of depth when shooting landscapes. Foreground is very important in landscape photography; place an object in the foreground to create a sense of depth and scale. Set a small aperture, try one no greater than a f/8 if it's a digital or f/16 with an SLR, so that your foreground and background can both be sharp.
Check out what other photographers are doing to get ideas to improve your own photography. Their photos will help you remember that there are different ways that you can take a picture of a particular subject.
Hold your camera tight, keep your arms close to your sides and put your hands on both sides and the bottom of your camera. Clearer shots will result, and shaking will be minimized. You can also keep your camera from slipping out of your hands by holding it from the bottom, rather than the top.
With any luck, the above information should give you a better idea of what you need to look for on your next photography adventure. Furthermore, these tips should enable you to organize your efforts better. You will become very successful if you work hard and learn as much as you can about photography.

I have been adding to my daughter's scrapbook lately. I suppose I have been in a "scrapbooking mood". And I love it when that happens! I wanted to do something simple that still displayed how much I love her. I am hoping she will one day appreciate when she's older. :0)
Anyways, I was running out of ideas so I popped over to KWerner Designs for a little inspiration. She is starting a new "Basic Inspirations Class" for Basic Grey on her blog and at basicgrey.com. And, of course, a video tutorial is included!
I loved the style of this page and wanted to mimic it yet still make it my own. Here's is how my page turned out:
I wanted to stick with 4 basic colors: red, brown, black, & white. I am still trying to figure out the words to say in my little journal entry and a special photo to go with it. But I figured I would at least share with you a template for this page style. If you would like to make your own scrapbook page similar to these styles, please check out this video to follow her simple step-by-step instructions.
I will be linking this up to these fun linky parties.

Source: The Death of Sunbonnet Sue: It Couldn't Happen to a Nicer Girl
It's all Jill's fault! I had decided last Monday to drastically reduce my fabric and fibre stash as I wasn't quilting much these days–
Then I went to Book Club and Jill says she now knows why her mum used to refer to her as Sun Bonnet Sue: Jill had "discovered" novels with a quilting theme, and yes! the theme started with Sunbonnet Sue.
Jill can not handle a needle in any shape or form(she says) so she asked me about making a Sunbonnet Sue quilt, or wall hanging, or—-
I had buried SBS a long long time ago so I asked Facebook friends for ideas where to find patterns. Helen in Tasmania mentioned Bad Sue and Sin Bonnet Sue and Mr Google led me to Kerry's wonderful blog dated 2014.
I LOVE it!

As promised, Ducati has taken the covers off the new Monster 1200 R which is the most powerful naked bike Ducati has ever built. Compared to the Monster 1200 S engine, the twin-cylinder "R" version delivers 10% more power and 5.5% more torque. At 160 hp and 97 lb-ft, the Monster 1200 R takes the crown away from Ducati's discontinued 1098 Streetfighter.
The Monster 1200 R's Testastretta 11° Dual Spark engine is equipped with a new 2-1-2 exhaust system with 58 mm diameter pipes and redesigned twin silencers. Although their routing has not been changed, the exhaust pipes have a new cross-section with a diameter that's been increased by 8 mm to boost engine efficiency which now breathes better thanks to a new throttle body. The original round design with 53mmdiameter bodies featured on the Monster 1200 has been replaced in the new version by a larger, oval section design with a 56mm equivalent diameter. A lower-height cylinder seal has made it possible to increase the compression ratio from 12.5:1 to 13:1, improving combustion efficiency.
It's not all about horsepower however. The Monster 1200 R pretty much gets the best of everything possible including upgraded Öhlins suspension, Öhlins steering damper, a newly styled tail, forged wheels and various bits of carbon fibre. That reduces wet weight down to 207 kg from the standard Monster 1200's 209kg.
The high-tech suspension system features new, fully adjustable dia. 48 mm titanium nitride-coated Öhlins forks with black-anodised bottoms and bodies and a fully adjustable Öhlins rear shock. Operating through a progressive linkage, the rear suspension attaches directly from the rear vertical cylinder to the die-cast aluminium single-sided swingarm at the opposite end. The Öhlins suspension package is completed by the adjustable steering damper that controls handlebar movement under heavy acceleration and enhances the sports inspiration of the instrument panel view.
The appearance of the bike is changed slightly, with the revised tail section creating an increased gap between the tyre and seat assembly, making the rear look more streamlined, further enhanced by the new design of the high-mounted aluminium plate holder, fully exposing the 200/55 rear tyre; both the rear and the front tyres are mounted on 3-spoke, Panigale R-inspired forged wheels.
The Monster 1200 R is also equipped with the Ducati Safety Pack including the ABS and Ducati Traction Control systems to enhance vehicle performance, optimise control and improve overall riding safety and also provides three riding modes – sport, touring and urban.
No word on pricing yet but expect a decent premium over the current top of the range Monster 1200 S Stripe.

Try Quick Tips
Breathe deep. Inhale for 5 counts. Hold for 1 count. Exhale for 6 counts. Hold for 1 count. Repeat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until you feel calm. Try inhaling a calming oil, like lavender with every few breaths.
Smile. Even if you don't feel like it, make yourself smile and hold that grin for a few moments. Keep a visual like a photograph of something or someone who makes you happy.
Stretch. Sit back or stand up and stretch like you've just climbed out of bed and are starting the day fresh and trouble free.
Walk. If possible, get up and walk away from the situation that is disrupting you sense of balance and calm. When you physically leave something behind you, you may find that it's easier to leave it behind mentally as well.
Listen. Listening to music, or simply moving your awareness to the sounds in the world around you is an effective way to self-distract your focus from the situation that's upsetting you.
The choices of essential oils that inspire balance and calm extend beyond well-regarded (for good reason) lavender to include scents you may not have thought of, or tried. From the lilting, apple-like scent of Roman chamomile to the exotic, tropical-floral scent of ylang ylang, options that inspire a calm and balanced state abound.
German and Roman chamomiles — sweet-herbal aroma with calming benefits
Clary sage — musk-like, herbal aroma with balancing benefits
Frankincense — fresh, soft, resinous-balsamic aroma with centering, balancing benefits
Geranium — rosy, sweet-herbal aroma with balancing benefits
Helichrysum — herbal, honey-like aroma with calming benefits
Jasmine — intense, sweet-flora aroma with calming benefits.
Lavandin — fresh, herbal aroma with balancing benefits
Lavender — soft, sweet-herbal aroma with calming beneftis
Sandalwood — rich, woody-balsamic aroma with balancing benefits
Sweet marjoram — sweet, earthy-herbal aroma with calming benefits
Myrrh — soft, pleasantly bitter-balsamic scent with balancing benefits
Neroli — sweet, orange blossom-floral scent with calming benefits
Patchouli — exotic, rich-herbal scent with calming benefits
Rose absolute — intense, deep rose aroma with calming benefits

Saturday Night Live is kicking off its 40th season with one heck of a pairing. It was just announced that Chris Pratt is locked to host the very first episode of the season and that Ariana Grande will be the musical guest. You really can't get much bigger than that right now.
Pratt is the star of the top-grossing movie of the year (domestically), Guardians of the Galaxy, and he's also in one of the most highly anticipated movies of 2015, Jurassic World. Even though Grande's Disney show Sam & Cat just got cut, it's probably because she's moving on to bigger and better things now. Her song "My Everything" is currently #1 on the Billboard 200 and she's also #1 on the Artist 100 as well. Hit the jump for more on what's coming up on SNL.
After Pratt and Grande's season opener on September 27th, Sarah Silverman will step in to host for the very first time with Maroon 5 making their fifth appearance as the musical guest.
Here's the official press release if you'd like to check it out:
September 27 – Chris Pratt/ Ariana Grande; October 4 – Sarah Silverman/ Maroon 5
NEW YORK – Sept. 10, 2014 – SNL's 40th season starts with Chris Pratt taking the 8H stage as host. The "Parks and Recreation" actor starred in this summer's box office smash "Guardians of the Galaxy," and will be seen in the upcoming film "Jurassic World."
Ariana Grande will make her SNL musical guest debut. Grande is currently sitting at Number One on the Billboard 200 chart with her album "My Everything," a year after her major label debut "Yours Truly" topped the chart.
On October 4, Sarah Silverman will return to 8H for her first time as host. Taken from Silverman's Emmy-winning HBO special, her comedy album "Sarah Silverman: We Are Miracles" is due out September 23.
Maroon 5 returns for their fifth appearance as musical guest on October 4. The Grammy Award winning group's latest album, "V," has already sparked hits including "Maps" and "Animals."
"Saturday Night Live" is produced in association with Broadway Video. The creator and executive producer is Lorne Michaels.

Trivandrum: In a first by a tourism board in the country, Kerala Tourism has chosen the virtual world to launch its path-breaking new Great Backwaters campaign. Ahead of the traditional media, the Great Backwaters campaign to unveil Kerala's majestic backwaters as a single destination and a once-in-a-lifetime experience like the Great Wall of China or the Grand Canyon of US was launched on the Twitter on October 21.
The fans of Kerala Tourism on Twitter (@KeralaTourism) have already welcomed the campaign's launch by enthusiastically tweeting with the hashtag #GreatBackwaters in large numbers.
Kerala Tourism is a pioneer in using the innovative means of technology to promote its destinations. The Kerala Tourism website (keralatourism.org), which has won several national and international awards, is considered one of the best tourism websites in the world. The department's Twitter and Facebook accounts are followed by tens of thousands of fans around the world.
Suman Billa IAS, Secretary, Kerala Tourism said, "It is a tribute to the millions of travellers across the world who embrace technology everyday in knowing about and visiting their favourite destinations".
Kerala Tourism has set up a separate micro-site (greatbackwaters.com), in which a frontline image of the campaign is hidden. The image from the aerial photography of the backwaters under the campaign is revealed bit by bit with each tweet on hashtag #GreatBackwaters. The entire image will be revealed once a considerable number of tweets with the hashtag appears.
S Harikishore IAS, Director, Kerala Tourism said, "Kerala Tourism has always been in the forefront in digitally promoting destinations in the state through new and innovative technology. The launch of the Great Backwaters campaign on the social media before any other medium is yet another demonstration of our commitment to connect with the fans of God's Own Country wherever they are".
During the last monsoon, Kerala Tourism had launched a gesture-controlled website (when-it-rains.com) showing images of rains captured by the department's Facebook fans to showcase the imagery of the monsoon season.
The Twitter campaign will be replicated on Facebook and Kerala Tourism will also start a blogger outreach campaign. The social media campaign will also be extended to Kerala Tourism's official Pinterest account asking people to create a backwater board on their Pinterest profile.

When trying to earn your webmoney from advertising, you will encounter some initial challenges.
At the beginning, it will not be easy and if you stick trough, you will find out that you can conquer these challenges.
Let's discuss some of the more common challenges you will face.
Getting visitors to your site is one of the biggest problems of people who look to earn from advertisements.
The more readers your site has, the bigger the potential your website can earn. But getting more visitors is a challenge.
What you will need to have are interesting, well written, useful articles.
One or two good articles are important, but a lot of good articles will increase your visitors even more. Writing often is important to increase your article count.
Write something fresh and unique will help you new get visitors as well. Think outside the box regarding topics.
Promoting your articles in places like technorati, digg, twitter and facebook also helps a lot to get the word out.
At the start, you will be faced with low income from your ads. Almost everybody who earns a substantial amount from their ads program will go through this phase and so will you.
But do not be dissuaded. The money you will earn is often related to the success of your website.
Keep on writing good articles, promote each article you write and make sure other people link to it.
Always remember that a new site won't rank as well as an older, more established website on many search engines and ranking websites, so hang in there for the long haul.
Also, remember that positioning your ads properly will contribute on how much you will earn from them.
Proper layout and ads placement will also affect how much you can earn from your ads. To help you out to determine proven ads placement, please check out what google has to say.
Experiment on layout and don't be afraid to move things around. Stick with what works and discard anything that don't.

The pirate bar on Vista Avenue draws a diverse crowd. Patrons file in for ultimate fighting events, and plenty of workers head in after a long day.

When it comes to grilling, some of us are like the U.S. Postal Service. Nothing stops us from cooking outdoors over our beloved gas or charcoal briquets: not rain, cold, or the darkest night.
We like to cook out because grilling does more than enhance the flavor of vegetables; it also helps retain many of the valuable nutrients they'd lose in boiling water. Tomatoes, onions, corn, and other foods come out tender, smoky, lightly charred, and absolutely delicious.
Plan to grow your own griller's garden this year, and you'll have a steady supply of fresh veggies for your table. Start your favorites from seeds, or look for starter plants, and set them out in the garden after the last spring frost in your area. Many veggies and herbs will be ready to harvest by late spring to early summer. Why not make a handy, reusable Griller's Toolbox and fill it with fresh produce from your garden? It would make a great gift for a special chef on Father's Day or Mother's Day.
To get started on your griller's garden, make a list of your family's favorites. Don't be afraid to add a few vegetables they claim to dislike, too. Once they're tried the grilled versions, they may change their minds.
Sow the seeds indoors or directly in garden beds that you've dug or tilled. Add compost, manure, or other amendments; if you're not sure what to use, do a soil test or contact your local extension service. Water your garden with about one inch of water a week, if rainfall is insufficient, and keep the plants mulched to control weeds. Use the results of your soil test to know what kind of fertilizer to use, and follow the package directions when applying it.
When your veggies are ready to harvest, wash them thoroughly. You may want to cut large vegetables into inch-thick slices so they'll cook more evenly. Coat them with your favorite marinade, or brush them with olive oil, margarine, or butter while the grill is preheating. When it's ready, place small vegetables crossways over the grate, so they don't fall through, Cook them on a thick sheet of foil, thread them on skewers, or use a grill basket. When they're done, sprinkle them with salt and pepper, if desired, and serve.
Popular vegetables for grilling include:
- asparagus
- eggplant
- peppers – red, green, and yellow
- corn
- onions
- tomatoes
- mushrooms
- squash
- zucchini
- green beans
- baby red potatoes
- leeks
You can also opt to stir-fry your vegetables in a wok made for your grill. Cast iron woks heat up fast, searing in moisture and flavor. If you don't already know it, you'll discover that vegetables prepared on the grill are both tasty and good for you. Then you might just skip the meat.

Six landscapes shaped by volcanoes
Digital Reporter
Monday, April 14, 2014, 7:17 PM -
Much of the world's landscape has been shaped by volcanoes in one way or another, with numerous mountains, craters, hot springs and lakes serving as a reminder of the sheer power of an eruption.
Every once in a while, a volcano will create a landscape unlike anything else on the planet.
Here are six examples, in no particular order.
1. Giant's Causeway-- Northern Ireland
The Giant's Causeway is a region containing about 40,000 interlocking columns. Located on the northeast coast of Northern Ireland, this spectacular stretch of land is the result of an ancient volcanic eruption.
It was declared a world heritage site in 1986, and a National Nature Reserve a few months later.
Readers of the British publication Radio Times declared it to be the fourth-greatest natural wonder of the UK in a 2005 survey.
RELATED:Seven alien landscapes that can be found on Earth
2.Diamond Head -- Hawaii
This famous volcanic tuff cone on the island of Oahu was given the name "Diamond Head" by British sailors in the 19th century upon mistaking the calcite crystals found in the rock for diamonds.
Locals call this phenomenon Le'ahi, with 'Lae' meaning 'brownridge' and 'ahi' translating to 'tuna', a reference to the ridge line which is reminiscent of a tuna's dorsal fin.
3. Rocas Bainbridge -- Ecuador
This incredible image was snapped off the southeastern coast of Santiago Island, Galapagos.
It represents just one in a chain of volcanic cones. The Turquoise centre is a shallow saltwater lake that is a hot spot for flamingos.
4. Kerið -- Iceland
Photo courtesy: Wikipedia
Kerið is a popular tourist destination in southern Iceland, and it's just one of many crater lakes in the area.
This one, however, stands out because its caldera -- or crater -- remains in tact. Surrounded by red volcanic rock, Kerið is relatively young at about 3,000 years old.
That's roughly half the age of other volcanic landscapes in the area.
5. Svartifoss -- Iceland
Photo courtesy: Wikipedia
Speaking of Iceland, take a look at this incredible waterfall in Vatnajökull National Park in Iceland.
Also referred to as Black Falls, these incredible basalt columns were the inspiration behind the Hallgrímskirkja church in Reykjavík as well as the country's National Theatre.
6. Champagne Pool -- New Zealand
The name of this hot spring was derived from a high concentration of carbon dioxide that create bubbles similar to what you'd see in a glass of bubbly.
Scientists believe it was formed about 900 years ago following an eruption, leaving behind a crater about 65 metres in diametre.
The orange ring around the hot spring comes from arsenic and antimony sulphide deposits.

it's been nearly two months since my last post and you'd think this might be a long one to make up for the time gone…no dice. instead you get a quick rant on a pet peeve.
please, for the love of all that is sacred, don't use the article the before the noun ukraine. folks, it is not the ukraine, it is simply ukraine…just as it is not the england, the germany, the russia, the africa, the australia, the spain. i have seen and heard that misused so much this summer and especially by those who are going there to serve the people. for crying out loud, if you are going there to serve, or sending someone to do the same, you especially should get it right.
thank you. that is all.

Obey SMITE Match Preview - Week #3 vs BurritoGG
On Saturday, Obey SMITE will be up against Burrito eSports in the third week of the SPL Fall Split following their important 2-0 win versus Team Rival. Obey has done phenomenally so far this split, sitting in second place as of Thursday night. However, come Saturday, Obey could slip into first, should they find the 2-0 versus Burrito. This sweep seems incredibly likely, considering Burrito's performance in the Fall Split and their last place finish in the Summer Split. Even though Burrito brought in Alexey "FaraKrik" Farion to fill the hole left by Willem "DeathPanter" Hoste in the mid lane, within the first week of play they were able to snag a win against Team Elevate, DeathPanter's supposed new team. To Burrito's contentment, this single win was enough to equal their performance from the split before. To be fair, the Summer Split was also their first split in the SPL, having joined The Papis as the newcomers to the professional stage. However, much like The Papis, their inexperience within the SPL has really shown, and Obey, being the tenured players that they are, will likely be able to take advantage of the beginner mistakes and lack of synergy that Burrito may show.
You're not going to want to miss this set, so make sure to tune in to www.twitch.tv/hireztv on Saturday, September 23rd at 4:00 PM EDT to support Obey Smite!

Organic foods aren't going anywhere anytime soon and with the trend seemingly never-ending, it's maybe time to jump on the bandwagon. Eating organic can make a world of a difference in your health. Everyone buys organic for different reasons, according to a 2016 Australian survey by Compare The Market– whether it's for health-related purposes, concern for the environment, or for better taste, the majority of people actually avoid buying organic because they feel it is more expensive. Here's why you should eat organic foods and how you can boost your diet, courtesy of Time Magazine:
Fewer Pesticides and Heavy Metals
What's labeled as organic is pretty much almost guaranteed to be grown without the use of artificial fertilizers or synthetic pesticides, though The National Organic Standard does allow the use of some synthetic substances. But organic is the healthiest way to go for your gut. This is the safest way to not consume things that contain this. While you may not see an instant impact from eating regular food, health experts warn about the impact of repeated exposure. Herbicides can contain carcinogens, which are harmful to the body. They literally cause cancer. There's even been a study done that found a link to ADHD in children and pesticides. Meaning that pesticides are having harmful effects on the brain. And finally, it's been found to be linked to a lower sperm count. With so many things being linked to consuming non-organic food, doesn't it make you think about what you're putting in your body? Organic food has also been linked to having less heavy metals in them, according to The British Journal of Nutrition.
More Healthy Fats
With meat and milk, there are 50 percent more omega-3 fatty acids in the organic version. That means you're getting more unsaturated healthy fat into your organic food diet. What makes such a huge difference between organic and non-organic? There could be differences in the way that the livestock is raised, with a grass-fed diet and more time spent outdoors, according to the 2016 study done by The British Journal of Nutrition. If the public were to switch over to consuming only organic products, then our omega-3 intake would increase without creating extra calories or fat.
No Antibiotics Or Synthetic Hormones
While antibiotics are often given to livestock to boost their immunity to illness, there are also consequences to using antibiotics and synthetic hormones long term. It's easier for farmers to raise livestock in unsanitary conditions that way. With loopholes still in the FDA's legislation, according to Business Insider, there's no way to know what kind of antibiotics are being put into the livestock that we consume on a daily basis. That's why it's so much better and cleaner to eat organic. By eating these types of foods, you're contributing to antibiotic drug resistance, which means that when an outbreak happens of a disease, the general public can't be protected against it. Organic meat and dairy also can't have synthetic hormones in them because it's been linked to cancer. That's why it's so much better to indulge in organic food.
More Antioxidants, In Some Cases
A recent six-year study done by The Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry found that organically grown onions actually have about 20 percent more antioxidants in them. That means that organically grown food is that much healthier than its counterpart. Long story short, the benefits of eating organically can outweigh the costs that have people so troubled about making the switch. Eating organic doesn't have to mean that it's not going to be worth it. There are ways to save while eating the best food that you can.

You don't have to just take our word for it. Here are a few statistics that support why your budget should include mobile. This trend is here to stay and here's proof:
Consumers now spend 60% of their time on the internet on their mobile device. (Marketing Land)
They are going to be online on their phones. If your page won't load they will find someone whose page
46% of shoppers say they are less likely to shop around for other options when they're using a company's mobile app. (comScore)
This means that if they are on your app they are very unlikely to look elsewhere for the product. If you have it and they can get it, they will get it from you. Take some time to have an app designed and market it.
Mobile data traffic between 2013 and 2019 is expected to grow at a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 45%. This means it is estimated that there will be 10 times the amount of total mobile data traffic by 2019. (Ericsson)
People are already spending more time on their mobile devices to use the internet than they do their
70% of mobile searches result in action on a website within an hour of the search. (iAcquire)
This shows that consumers and mobile users are not continuing to search again and again. Instead, they are looking at and using what they found that worked the first time. If your website is not mobile friendly they won't remember to try and log on their computer later. They will have already done what they needed to do and moved on.
95% of smartphone users have searched for local info. (Google)
People are looking for your business locally. They want to find out your hours, specials, products and even just your location. If they are on their mobile and they can't find you they will find someone else. Don't let that happen. Make sure they can find you.

I'm sick this morning. To be more specific, I'm heartsick. And afraid. I'm guessing millions of other Americans are feeling the same way. The good man we hoped would be our next president lost a close election last night.
You'd think after all the presidential elections I've voted in over five decades, I'd be immune to disappointment. But I'm very worried about a president I don't trust, did next to nothing in his four years of governing, and who blames others while he boasts he will "fundamentally transform" the country I love.
I was raised in a blue-collar Chicago, a working man's town that is so solidly Democratic there's not an alderman in the city that's an independent or Republican. Read more…

Pedestrians are classified as 'vulnerable road users'
In many cases, pedestrians who are injured in a road traffic collision can pursue a claim against the driver. The Highway Code places a high duty on drivers in respect of pedestrians especially children. All pedestrians are classified as vulnerable road users by the Highway Code. When pedestrians are knocked over by cars or other moving vehicles there is a very high likelihood that the pedestrian will suffer severe injuries such as an acquired brain injury, or spinal cord injury. We commonly see cases of serious head, brain and spinal injuries. Sadly, as the statistics demonstrate, there is a very high number of pedestrian fatalities every year.
Pedestrian legal cases
Leigh Day has successfully represented the families of pedestrians who have been injured or killed by drivers. Some sustained the injuries on whilst on the pavement or on a pedestrian crossing. Below are some of our cases:
Some cases will involve the pedestrian misjudging the speed of oncoming traffic or often, in the case of children and young adults, running out into the road. Sometimes in the cases of young adults alcohol will be a factor.
Typically the courts place a high duty on car drivers to be aware and on the look out for pedestrians, particularly children, whilst driving in built up areas, and also young adults especially at night when alcohol can impair judgment. So that even in a case where it seems that the pedestrian may also have been to blame it is possible to obtain compensation.
The court may attribute some of the blame to the injured person by finding there was contributory negligence and therefore they will only receive a percentage of the total award. However, in the case of severe brain or spinal injuries where the compensation will run to several million pounds it can still be worth pursuing a claim even if there may be a deduction to reflect fault on the pedestrian's part.
If you or a member of your family has been involved in a road crash as a pedestrian and have suffered a brain or spinal injury, you should seek legal advice about claiming compensation. We would be happy to discuss this will you and advise you about the steps you would need to take to make a claim.

Barney the Dinosaur
Here on Inside the Fictional Character's Studio I find out information about your favorite or least favorite character and share that information publicly. Did you know that Barney, the lovable dinosaur, has tried to quit his job of entertaining children? I, with my plethora of resources, have obtained Barney's resignation letter and the reply from management.
To whom it may concern,
I have been playing the part of Barney the dinosaur for 15 or so odd years. I have hit my breaking point. I cannot do this job anymore. The kids used to be friendly, fun and considerate but now they are mean, annoying and whiny. That damn song is stuck in my head forever. I wake up and it is the first thing thing to pop into my head. I sing it in the shower without realizing it. It is driving me crazy. I have had many thoughts of suicide over the past year. About a month ago I actually sat in my bathtub full of water and was ready to throw the toaster in but I couldn't do it. If I don't leave this job I will end up doing something regrettable. My contract is up. Consider this letter my resignation.
Barney the Dinosaur
To Barney,
We have received and reviewed your resignation letter. Unfortunately we cannot grant what you requested. There is a clause in your contract that allows us to extend your employment without your consent. We reserve the right to deny any resignation request or vacation time without notice. We are extending your contract with the show for another 5 years at a 10% decrease in pay and half the vacation time. If you try to escape this contract, we will take you to court and you will lose. You will then end up being fined $15,000 and serving 2-5 years in prison where you will be molested and raped by disturbed inmates. After you get out you will then have to fulfill your contract. You should of read the find print before you signed the contract. You are stuck with us.

Descriptive Summary
|Gebirtig, Mordecai, 1877-1942
|Mordecai Gebirtig Papers
|Bulk Dates:
|Mordecai Gebirtig was born in Kraków (Cracow), Poland on May 4, 1877. He was killed in the Kraków ghetto on June 4, 1942, during the deportation to the Belzec death camp. Gebirtig, a carpenter by trade, became world famous as the poet and composer of a wide array of Yiddish folksongs. His ballads and song-poems were performed by foremost artists of his time, as well as itinerant street singers in the Jewish courtyards of Europe. His songs were heard and admired in the prestigious Yiddish theaters of Poland. Much has been written about Gebirtig, both during his lifetime and in the aftermath of his death. Today, his music and legacy continue to flourish even in countries where Yiddish is not regularly spoken. His book, Mayne lider has been published in the United States, Poland, France, Italy, and Germany. His songs are widely recorded. The collection consists mostly of manuscripts of Mordecai Gebirtig's songs ranging from the 1920s-1942.

Biographical Note
Mordecai Gebirtig, whose real surname was Bertig, was born in 1877 in the Jewish quarter of Kraków to a family of impoverished petty merchants. Gebirtig received a traditional kheyder education until the age of ten, at which time he began a carpenter's apprenticeship. He would go on to practice carpentry until the end of his life.
From early on, Gebirtig demonstrated an interest in music, poetry, and theater. In 1905 he began publishing articles and songs in several periodicals, among them Der sotsyal demokrat, the Yiddish organ of the Social Democratic Party in Galicia, of which he was a member. Gebirtig served five years in the Austro-Hungarian army (as Kraków and all of Galicia were at that time under Austrian rule), and began collecting folksongs during this period.
The state of destitution that Gebirtig experienced during his childhood prevented him from receiving any kind of formal musical training. Thus, he was fortunate to meet and befriend the prominent musician, Jan Hoffman, who was one of the first to recognize his talent and potential. Hoffman transcribed Gebirtig's melodies into musical notes. It is thanks to him that much of Gebirtig's composed works are now available to us. Gebirtig issued his first collection of folksongs called, Folkstimlekh ("Of the Folk") in 1920 in Kraków. This included children's songs such as Hershele, Viglid ("Lullaby"), and the popular, Unter geyt di velt ("The World is Going Under").
In the 1920s and 1930s Gebirtig's fame began to grow. It was during this period that he wrote Kinder-yorn ("Childhood Years") and Hulyet, hulyet kinderlekh ("Rejoice, Rejoice Children"), which were performed and popularized all over the world. In particular, Gebirtig's songs and melodies were performed in the kleynkunst theaters of Warsaw, Łódz, and Vilna: Azazel, Ararat, Sambatyon, and Maidyim, and during the `Gebirtig Evenings' that were organized around the country.
Gebirtig's songs include lullabies, children's songs, songs of one's home, youth, and childhood, underworld themes, and songs about destruction of Jewish life including Undzer shtetl brent ("Our Town is On Fire") and S'tut vey ("It Hurts").
In April 1942 Gebirtig and his family were transported to the Kraków ghetto. On June 4, 1942, the day known in the history of the ghetto as "Bloody Thursday", Jews were rounded up for deportation to the Belzec extermination camp. Gebirtig was shot and killed during this roundup.
It is believed that Gebirtig wrote many songs during the Nazi occupation period and in the ghetto proper. Only four of the songs written by Gebirtig in the ghetto were ever recovered, the final one being the sarcastically titled, S'iz gut ("It's Good"), which was dated May, 1942.
Gebirtig's friends, the composers Borukh Sperber and Jan Hoffman, helped set his poetry to music. In 1936 Gebirtig's second book of folksongs, Mayne lider ("My Songs") was published and edited by the folksinger Menakhem Kipnis. This edition was later reprinted with additions in 1942 and 1948. New editions and frequent recordings of his songs, as well as a number of biographical works about him in the post-war years, have signaled a revival of interest in Gebirtig's body of work.Return to the Top of Page
Scope and Content Note
The collection consists of manuscripts of Mordecai Gebirtig's songs ranging from the 1920s-1942. Included here are Kinder-yorn, Hershele, Hulyet, hulyet kinderlekh, Motele, Reyzele, Undzer shtetl brent, and Yankele. There are four numbered notebooks and some loose musical scores of his songs. The latter were copied by Julia Hoffman. Each notebook bears a statement from Julia Hoffman (in Polish) attesting to the fact that she received the manuscripts in her custody from Lola Gebirtig in June 1942, following Mordecai Gebirtig's death.
Also contained here are materials of a fragmentary nature, such as copies of correspondence between Gebirtig and the Yiddish theater actresses, Diana Blumenfeld (dated 1941) and Khane Grosberg, as well as original, handwritten incipits in Yiddish and German. Included here are the songs Ker bezeml ker ("Sweep Little Broom Sweep"), dated August 15, 1938, Kraków, and Kinder-yorn ("Childhood Years"), undated.
The collection contains twelve incipits and melody lines that were transcribed from Gebirtig's original works by Julia Hoffman in 1957-1958 in Kraków. Included here are: A lidele tajer wie gold ("A Song as Dear as Gold"), Hej Cigajnerl ("Hey Little Gypsy"), Hob rachmunes ("Have Pity"), Oj, mein chawer ("Oh, My Friend"), and Unser tochter Chaje ("Our Daughter Khaye").
The collection also contains the bilingual Hebrew/Yiddish book, HaAyara boeret/Undzer shtetl brent, published by the Kibbutz Givat Haviva Moreshet Archives in 1967 in Israel, which includes facsimiles of Gebirtig's original manuscripts. These manuscripts are housed today at the aforementioned Kibbutz Givat Haviva Moreshet Archives.Return to the Top of Page

Custodial History
As of January 1941, at which time Gebirtig and his family were forced to leave their home in Kraków and move to the neighboring village of Łagiewniki, Gebirtig entrusted much of his work to Jan Hoffman. While Hoffman did not survive the war, his daughters Julia and Hanka did, on the "Aryan" side of the city. They, in turn, succeeded in rescuing Gebirtig's priceless manuscripts.
The YIVO Archives purchased the collection, which is limited to four small notebooks and a few supplementary materials, in 1976.Return to the Top of Page

Supreme Court revisits affirmative action for college admissions
The Supreme Court agreed Tuesday to revisit affirmative action in college admissions, placing a decade old (5-4) court ruling at risk from today's more conservative court. The former ruling involved the University of Michigan Law School, which permitted racial diversity to qualify as a compelling governmental interest in public higher education. The new case originates from the University of Texas at Austin. The university policy keeps otherwise qualified applicants from admissions by admitting less qualified applicants in some...read more
New school board's new challenge … New superintendent!
Thursday, the Rockford School District confirmed rumors which have surrounded Superintendent Sheffield for the past few weeks. The district and the superintendent have agreed to a mutual parting of the ways. LaVonne Sheffield will resign as of April 30, 2011, after less than 2 years at the helm. The current board will approve the severance agreement at their regularly scheduled board meeting next Tuesday night. The agreement includes six months salary, which would be approximately $105,000, since the superintendent had signed a four year...read more
Why are RSD205 taxpayers paying for busing to out-of-school daycare?
An article in Monday's Rockford Register Star concluded that shifting to elementary school zones is putting a crimp in the free busing of hundreds of students to day care centers before and after school. This should be good news for RSD205 taxpayers. Talk about a "free ride" at the taxpayer's expense! The district has been providing transportation to day care facilities free of charge since the 1990s under the current choice assignment plan, even before the court ordered busing. The day care centers have, in most...read more
Sheffield's divisive State of the Schools speech pits one group against another
Dr. Sheffield started her speech by quoting Martin Luther King Jr., "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter." I'm reminded of another quote from Dr. King, "Ultimately a genuine leader is not a searcher of consensus, but a molder of consensus." Unfortunately, Dr. Sheffield must not have read the latter quote, for her speech was one of divisiveness, not consensus, pitting one group against another. The decision for geographic attendance zones has been finalized. Sheffield said ...read more
Student assignment vote represented the demographics of Rockford
Two blogs, printed in Sunday's Rockford Register Star, turned the Rockford School Board's 5-2 vote for zoned schools and the people at the board meeting who witnessed it, into a power struggle with racial overtones. Excerpt from Sweeny Report: The folks in favor of the current, modified choice plan tend to be the poor, the west siders, the voiceless of our community. The front page picture in the newspaper said it all: The people happy with the 5-2 vote were all-white, and all-connected. Even though only 35 percent of District 205...read more
