Here's a synopsis of what is occurring as it relates to OT and Developmental Disabilities with Medicaid funding: The work group consisting of representatives from AROTA, ArPTA, ArkSHA, and DDS met on January 11th. Discussions included the revision of the DSM 640. Changes include: 1. Removing the treatment box 2. Adding DOB 3. Removing the "under 21" at the top as the DSM 640 is now required for all therapies (child and adults) with developmental disabilities 4. Removing the expenditure box and details at the bottom Once the changes are finalized, the plan is to have the updated form promulgated by April with new form being effective July 1, 2019. Elizabeth Pitman is the DDS contact over the eQHealthcare contract for therapy Prior Authorizations and Retrospective Reviews. She is working to get edits added to the state's MMIS system so that PT/PTA and OT/OTA can have a composite prior authorization versus individual PA's for each service. OT evaluation codes are being worked on at present to be implemented July 1, 2019 on MMIS state billing system. The ArKids Manual will be edited to state that OT and PT is covered by ArKids B. (current edition is outdated). Section 215.00 in the Therapy Medicaid Manual is being reviewed and will be revised with anticipated initiation date of July 1, 2019. Amy Goddard is the OT representative working on revisions to section 215.00 in Therapy manual. Thanks Amy !!
Respectfully Submitted to share with AROTA members by Angela Traweek.
For those who have already joined us on the new AROTA web-page- again, welcome. To those visiting for the first time, we want to extend our warmest welcome as you experience the newly designed, fully integrated web-page for the Arkansas Occupational Therapy Association. Our new web-page includes numerous features, including: Easy scheduling for calendar events; Conference sign up; Simple online membership payment processing; Detailed directory search; Group messaging boards; and much more.
AROTA has embarked on a mission. We intend to be an integral part of Arkansas' occupational therapy community and a valuable resource not only for the exceptional practitioners present, but also for the outstanding students on track to joining the workforce.
As we continue to develop various components of the website, our plans include continuing education opportunities, resources for practitioners such as reference guides or standardized norm tables, and even a long term goal of offering an AROTA-sponsored OT conference within the state. We are striving to better serve the OT community, as well as providing meaningful incentives to encourage your continued support for the state association and our mission.
In an effort to continue the progress of our mission, AROTA board members have voted to increase the dues for all membership types beginning January 1st. This will not affect any renewing members or new members in the 2018 calendar year; however, new prices will be in effect for individual renewal in 2019. Increasing dues will provide financial stability and a means to impart change in accordance with our growing vision and mission. In an effort to impose a fair increase, numerous factors were considered. The board carefully researched surrounding states and the applicable fees for state association's members, while taking into consideration the unique dynamics of Arkansas and its residents. After consideration, the following membership prices will be instituted January 1st, 2019:
OT Student: $20
OT Assistant: $55
OT Therapist: $75
While an increase in dues is never desired at an individual level, it is in fact a necessity to insure success for future organizational endeavors as well as to better secure the longevity of this association. Thank you for supporting your professional organization.
Again, thank you for your continued support. If there is any way we can continue to improve the AROTA experience, please contact us directly. We are currently seeking additional board members and committee heads to expand our mission. Help us continue to cultivate AROTA.
09-08-2018: Quarter 3 , 2018 Board Meeting will be held At UAMS /NW . Time: 9:00 til 12:00 pm. The front door will be open only for our meeting. Everyone park on top parking deck and walk right in. We will go to Facebook live for the last 15 minutes of the meeting for questions of those who are unable to attend the public forum portion of meeting. We invite you to a meet and greet after the board meeting for everyone to come together and visit. This will be from 1 pm til 3 pm. It will be held at Melissa Foster's home. See announcement on member's only calendar on Event Calendar for address.. We will offer a CEU opportunity during meet and greet. Hope to see you there.
05-05-18: AROTA will be holding a general board meeting . It will be held from 10am-12pm at Arkansas Tech University, Morton Hall Rm 124. The board will meet from 10-11, but members are invited to attend from 11-12 to provide input and ask questions. We will test out Facebook live to try to connect with members unable to come to meeting. We hope to see you there!
.2019 RETRO therapy review claims with AFMC: As you know, the vendor who reviews Therapy claims changed on January 1, 2019. Our previous vendor's, AFMC, contract with us to review any claims, whether for prior authorization or retrospective review, ended on December 31, 2018. Because the new vendor is reviewing several different claim types, we decided to prioritize the work in three phases. We here at DDS prioritized prior authorizations of therapy for more than 90 minutes per week, because it was felt by us that it was important for children to continue to receive the level of therapy they need during this transition.

I'll go ahead and get one started for this month! Yesterday was my official first day back to working out since vacation! I ran 4 miles and I am sore today! I am doing the Princess 1/2 marathon in Feburary and a few small races before then so I need to get busy! My goal is to run at least 3 days a week and fill in the other two days with strength training and DVD's/ Your Shape.
I was sore this morning and didn't get anything done this morning. I decided to leave a little early this afternoon and got in a 3 mile walk before picking up Daniel from school. We also went for a walk this evening and we did 2 miles.
Daniel joined the running club at school and really likes it. So we have been walking in the evenings to help build up his distance. He's doing really well. At the end of our walks, when we get to our street we all have a race home. I was right behind him today and I was doing about a 9:00 pace so he was moving! My DH is a really good runner- he did 11 miles this weekend at an average pace of 8:12....I only wish I could be that fast!!
So, who else is in for the month??

Sundays @ 8:05am, 9:30am, 11:05am
The MADE MS (Middle School) Gathering is an event that takes place almost every Friday night from 7-9 pm in the SFC Student Ministry room (A208). The gathering is open to any students in 6th through 8th grade and generally consists of game/activity time, refreshments, worship music, prayer, a challenging message and a lot of fun with your friends. Please come check it out some time!
The name of our gathering MADE is taken from the passage in Psalms 139 which tells us that we are "fearfully and wonderfully MADE..." by God and in His image. I don't think we can be reminded of this truth enough, especially as young people, because the world often tears us down and makes us feel less that valuable! God is the "intelligent designer" who made us and God didn't make any junk! We as Christians must anchor our self-esteem and self-worth to this truth and pass it on to others who so desperatiely need to hear it! We in the Soldiers For Christ Student Ministry (SFC) desire to know God and live out their lives for Him!
SFC Student Ministry offerings for Middel School students:
Local Missions:
* 2nd Monday of each month - Street Ministries (feeding the homeless0 5:45-9pm (meet under overhang)
* 2nd Tuesday of each month - PB&J Sandwich making 5:30-6:30pm (A203)
* As needed - Clothes to Kids (sorting & folding donated clothing)

NBA Cancels the First Two Weeks of the 2011-12 Season
: Written by Brian Cronin : 10-10-2011 : 17 Comments
In a depressing announcement today, NBA Commissioner David Stern stated that the owners and the players are so far apart on negotiations that he is canceling the first two weeks of the NBA season. For awhile now, there was a growing sense from some observers of the negotiations that there was no way that this would get done without losing games, since the owners feel that the players won't truly begin to fold until actual games (and thus player payments) were lost. I hope that that is not the case, and this is just a matter of the two sides …continue reading

The Divine Conspiracy: Chapter 3 What Jesus Knew: Our God-bathed World (pp. 88-91)
The Great Inversion
The Widow's Offering
Luke 21 As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. 2 He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. 3 "Truly I tell you," he said, "this poor widow has put in more than all the others. 4 All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on."
"This story calls to our attention The Great Inversion that lies at the heart of the good news of Jesus and his people. The scene at the offering box in the temple is an illustration. What turns up so graphically in that case is actually a general structure that permeates the message of the Bible as a whole and the reality portrayed therein."
"This structure indicates that humanity if routinely flying upside down, and at the same time it provides a message of hope for everyone who counts on God's order, no matter his or her circumstance."
"Again, the children of Israel were the most deprived segment of Egyptian society. Yet they 'triumphed over the horse and the rider in the midst of the sea.' The barren, the widow, the orphan, the eunuch, the alien, all models of human hopelessness are fruitful and secure in God's care. They are repeatedly invoked in Old Testament writings as testimony to the great inversion between our way and God's way."
"To see everything from the perspective of 'the heavens opened' is to see all things as they are before God. The Kingdom Among Us is simply God himself and the spiritual realm of beings over which his will perfectly presides- 'as it is in the heavens.'"
"The kingdom is to be sharply contrasted with the kingdom of man: the realm of human life, that tiny part of visible reality where the human will for a time has some degree of sway, even contrary to God's will. 'The heavens are the heavens of the Lord,' the psalmist said, 'but the earth He has given to he sons of men.' (Psalm 115:16) And as things now stand we must sigh, 'Alas for the earth!'"
"To become a disciple of Jesus is to accept now that inversion of human distinctions that will sooner or later be forced upon everyone by the irresistible reality of his kingdom. How must we think of him to see the inversion from our present viewpoint? We must, simply, accept that he is the best and smartest man who ever lived in the world, that he is even now 'the prince of the kings of the earth' (Rev.1:5) Then we heartily join his cosmic conspiracy to overcome evil with good."

Snoring & Sleep Disorders
Possible Treatments for Snoring & Sleep Disorders
- VIVAER Nasal Obstruction Remodeling
- Radio Frequency Uvula & Palate Reduction
- Allergy & Immunotherapy
- Allergy Mitigation Practices
- Radio Frequency Turbinate Reduction
- Balloon Sinuplasty
- Pillar Implant Procedure
45% percent of normal adults snore at least occasionally, and 25% percent are habitual snorers. Males and people who are overweight have a higher percentage of snoring and sleep problems, and their problems usually worsens with age. Snoring may be an indication of obstructed breathing and should not be taken lightly. Our doctors can help you to determine where the anatomic source of your snoring may be, and offer solutions for this noisy, often embarrassing, and possibly dangerous disorder.
What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is characterized by multiple episodes of
breathing pauses greater than 10 seconds at a time, due to upper airway narrowing or collapse. This results in lower amounts of oxygen in the blood, which causes the heart to work harder. It also causes disruption of the natural sleep cycle, which makes people feel poorly rested despite adequate time in bed. Apnea patients may experience 30 to 300 such events per night.
The immediate effect of sleep apnea is that the snorer must sleep lightly and keep the throat muscles tense in order to keep airflow to the lungs. Because the snorer does not get a good rest, he or she may be sleepy during the day, which impairs job performance and makes him or her a hazardous driver or equipment operator. Untreated obstructive sleep apnea increases the risk of developing heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, and many other medical problems.
People who snore may suffer from:
- Poor muscle tone in the tongue and throat: When muscles are too relaxed, the tongue falls backwards into the airway or the throat muscles draw in from the sides into the airway. Some relaxation is natural during deep sleep, but may become a problem if exacerbated by alcohol or drugs that cause sleepiness
- Excessive bulkiness of throat tissue: Children with large tonsils and adenoids often snore. Overweight people may have excess soft tissue in the neck that can lead to airway narrowing. Cysts or tumors are rare causes of airway narrowing.
- Long soft palate and/or uvula: A long palate narrows the opening from the nose into the throat. The excessive length of the soft palate and/or uvula acts as a noisy flutter valve during relaxed breathing.
- Obstructed nasal airways: A stuffy or blocked nose requires extra effort to pull air through it. This creates an exaggerated vacuum in the throat that pulls together the floppy tissues of the throat, and snoring results. So snoring may only occur during the hay fever season or with a cold or sinus infection. Also, deformities of the nose or nasal septum, such as a deviated septum (a deformity of the wall that separates one nostril from the other) can cause such an obstruction.

Looking for the one gift that will make your Mom feel appreciated this Mother's Day? Or you want to make your wife remember she's still number 1? Here are some excellent ideas.
Quickly jump to:
- Fun activities
- Personalized gifts
- Gadgets
- Laptops and tablets
- Books and readers
- Watches
- Bath and beauty gift sets
- Others
Mother's Day is now less than a month away here in the US. As the day looms, some of us out there may find ourselves paralyzed with indecision over what to get or do for the significant ladies in our lives.
Do you have an idea of how to show you appreciation for your mother, your wife (mother of your child[ren]), sister with kids or even your mother-in-law? If not, fret not, 'coz we're here to give you basic ideas on what you can do to make the day special for the women that matter in your life.
Fun Mother's Day activities
The Tipper's personal favorite is experience type gifts. That means taking a trip somewhere, making new memories with experiences that we can laugh about for the rest of our lives. The bonding these trips offer is second to none. So what kind of trips can be had?
Well snorkeling is an all time favorite of the Tipper family so I definitely recommend that for whoever can manage. And it's something that the entire family can enjoy. It's perfect for mothers who enjoy outdoors activities. For first timers, just ensure to bring along your snorkeling gear.
An alternative to snorkeling for those of us that live far from the sea is hiking. I believe there's a perfect hiking spot a couple of minutes drive from any major town or city. You can quickly grab your hiking boots at a moment's notice and run off to create special memories together.
There's always the classic dinner at a fancy restaurant, though that could be in addition to another gift.
For those who may not be able to spend some time together on Mother's Day, there's always the option of sending gifts. But what gifts suit this day best.
Personalized sentimental gifts
If you're artistically inclined you could always compose a song or paint your gift. Unfortunately majority of us can barely draw better than stick figures AND at the same time sound like croaking frogs. Luckily there are places where you can commission meaningful artsy gifts that will just melt your mother's heart.
Personalized jewellery like this personalized gold swivel bar necklace which is stamped with the receiver's name are a good idea for a gift with a personal touch. Or for mums that love to host parties you can get them a personalized serving tray, engraved with the family name or whichever message.
You can top this off with an engraved wood Mother's Day card and handmade one-of-a-kind earrings and this beautiful vegan leather tote bag to top off the look.
Gifts for mothers that love gadgets
Right off the bat, I am yet to meet a gadget-lover that doesn't love the Amazon Echo. With its Alexa voice control you can play music, controls other smart devices in your home, reads out any information you ask of it and a lot more. Heck the lucky mother that receives this gift can use it to shop for your birthday or Christmas gifts, so you can expect that good karma come the end of the year.
The Echo Dot does the same but in a smaller package, meaning you can place several across different rooms in your home. (NOTE: Definitely not a good gift for someone that fears the machines taking over)
A gift that mothers who struggle with stress will definitely appreciate is the Naipo Breo eye massager. This gadget comes with music, three compression modes and is heated. After a long stressful day, there's nothing as good as a relaxing, warm massage as the relaxing music helps you drift off to your happy place.
For a mother keen on exercise a Fitbit Charge 2 makes the perfect gift. A Fitbit remains the best way to track your fitness progress and helps you set and monitor targets. For mothers that would prefer a better looking tracker you can go for the Tory Burch Fitbit Fret bracelet to accessorize the Fitbit Flex.
Laptops and tablets
In this day and age it's hard to believe that there are some people that are yet to own their first computer. They do however exist out there. My aunt being one of them. (Yes I am getting her a laptop this Mother's Day just so she can Skype her grandkids instead of complaining of only seeing them every Christmas).
Many others are just in need of upgrading of laptops that have been to hell and back. Whatever the reason, a laptop as a Mother's day gift should really brighten the spirits of a lucky mother.
For simple computing tasks around the home like checking mail and Youtube, the Acer Aspire E15 or a similar-speced laptop would suit perfectly. For the mother that needs a laptop for work, it would be better to go for this HP 15-incher. For a mix of both work and play, the Asus UX360CA touchscreen laptop is just the right fit. Of course any of these work well for Skyping the grandkids.
If a laptop isn't your thing you can still go for a tablet in the form of the recently released Samsung Galaxy Tab S3. This is the best touch of elegance with its sleek design and stylus pen which of course would be perfect for anyone that does a lot of sketching or prefers handwritten notes. Alternatively you can go for the soon-to-be-released Samsung Galaxy S8 phone which is due to be released on April 28th. If you pre-order now, the important ladies in your life could be sporting a spanking new smartphone on Mother's Day morning.
In case you prefer Apple products though, you're still covered. A Macbook Air accessorized with a Mosiso plastic hard case gives this gift whatever character you want to fit the receiver. An alternative to the Android tablet is Apple's Ipad Pro 9.7 inch model which is compatible with the Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard, turning it into a highly versatile tablet/mobile computer hybrid.
Gifts for mothers that like reading
There is a huge selection on offer for people that like reading. I think this is the group of people for whom getting gifts should be the easiest. So how can we make a special gift for a reader mom?
For one the Kindle Paperwhite will give them their entire selection of books on their palm in a lightweight package. Now they can read at their convenience even while traveling without the added weight of lugging around a couple of books. This particular Kindle is also glare free so reading outside on a warm day is much simpler than on a tablet or laptop.
Traditional paper books still have their die hard fans, myself included. A recent favorite of mine is Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher. This book is so compelling and no wonder it has been adapted into a very popular Netflix Original series. I guarantee this will be a beloved gift.
A wonderful cookbook for culinary oriented moms is the Slow Cooker Cookbook by Clark Weber. The author is a New York chef and this collection includes only the healthiest but tasty low calorie recipes so it's also great for moms that are watching what they eat.
Watches as Mother's Day gifts
A good watch is the most timeless of gifts (pun intended). The right watch can last for generations and not lose time or suffer from visible wear as long as it's well-kept. I believe a carefully chosen gift watch shall be very warmly received this Mother's Day, and it need not even be expensive.
A great example of this is the relatively inexpensive Burgmeister BM 510 which looks elegant despite its modest price tag. If less muted aesthetics are desired, the Elico Assoulini SU5975937 or this Burei watch would be a better fit. Our absolute favorite and our recommended watch if you can afford it is the Tissot T60124993. It has in our opinion the right blend of flash and class to fit into most scenarios. Business or fun.
Bath and beauty gift sets
So we saved the best for last. Everyone jumps at the chance to look, feel and smell like a superstar. We have just the right combination of beauty product gift sets that will give a lucky mother just that right from bath to the last bit of her outfit.
First of all we begin with the Dr. Jeffrey McCombs recommended Detoxify and regenerate bath set to ensure that by the time she steps out of her bathtub, half of all the stresses of the world have been washed away. For make up we shall go with the Stila foundation, concealer and brush kit. Her nails shall be taken care of by the Zoya nail polih and lipstick gift set. To top it all off her fragrance shall be the exquisite Burberry perfume bath lotion gift set. Alternatively we can opt for the just as good Elizabeth Arden Always Red perfume set.
Honorable mentions
This has just been a launching point for ideas of what you can get a special lady for Mother's Day. Otherwise the options are unlimited. For example you can get a camera such as one of these Canon or Panasonic point-and-shoot cameras for documenting of family events. Or these sunglasses for pure style at the beach. This wonderful Cuisinart coffeemaker is perfect for the mother that can't live without her cup of joe. And this birthstone ornament would be highly appreciated by many. If however more options just confuse you more, a gift card could also be just as good. The choice is yours.

Medium: Jorge Raul Olguin.
Entity that came to dialogue: Master Ruanel.
Interlocutor: Okay. I want to ask about Leonardo Da Vinci and his famous painting "Gioconda", the painting that brought so much speculation.
Ruanel: Leonardo was a Spirit of Light terrestrial who was also an avatar in other worlds. In the physical plane he was a magnificent painter, an excellent inventor, a gifted medium.
Interlocutor: Was Leonardo Da Vinci a medium?
Ruanel: Yes, of course. Notice that he left many advanced ideas for the time he lived. There is another character of the same level of Leonardo, I refer to Galileo. These two beings are very similar since both of them channeled and they had novel ideas that surpassed amply to their century [1].
Interlocutor: Obviously they could not see what the future holds. I make this remark because for example Leonardo was a pioneer of inventions like the airplane.
Ruanel: Yes, but they were creations of him. Leonardo had a gigantic mental decoder, to express it in a graphic way.
Interlocutor: When you say that Leonardo was an avatar, Are you referring to a higher mission as Jesus had?
Ruanel: Yes, of that same category.
Interlocutor: Is it possible that the inventions were brought from the other worlds where he embodied?
Ruanel: Of course, but don't forget that in order to do that, there must be a tremendous contact with theThetan, since we are born without reincarnative memory. And they are very few people who at the present time have it in such magnitude on the planet.
Interlocutor: In which spiritual plane is Leonardo Da Vinci at this moment?
Ruanel: In the time he embodied he was already in the plane 5º, sublevel 9º.
Interlocutor: Ah, the same level that Johnakan and the Master Jesus! Could we say that he had a mediuship like the one this vessel has at the present time?
Ruanel: Yes, very similar.
Interlocutor: Is the Spirit of Leonardo present at this time?
Ruanel: Yes, of course. I wanted to jot down that the difference between both spirits were regarding to the type of creativity, since both of them have it in different fields. And so that you see the magnitude of this creativity, I inform you that he surpasses the creativity of Jesus himself. But this obviously is not a detriment for the Master, because they are different flairs.
Creativity is a function; this means that you can surpass Jesus for example in discernment of what an engram is. Do you understand what I want to convey?, because here we are not impairing anybody, but only highlighting that the spirits are different and everyone has their own qualities without becoming unworthy in front of the others.
Interlocutor: Master, is completely clear. I want to ask about Mona Lisa quickly to finish this session and allow Jorge to rest. Somebody speculated that this painting was reflecting somehow to Leonardo and he sought to demonstrate it coupling the halves of the faces.
Ruanel: No, nothing like that, both faces didn't have any resemblance.
Interlocutor: But who was the woman in that painting?
Ruanel: She was a common lady of that time; she was also somebody's wife.
Interlocutor: I give you a name which is commonly suggested, to see if we are talking about the same person: Monna Lisa di Antonio Maria Gherardini, who was wife of a Florentine wealthy person called Francesco del Giocondo.
Ruanel: Yes, I confirm it to you, here the spirit of Leonardo himself is advising me. She was a woman without significance, not beautiful at all.
Interlocutor: But why did they make so much mystery with something so simple?
Ruanel: I already said before and I repeat it: People like to complicate simple things. I leave all my Light to you.
Interlocutor: See you later, Master, and thank you.
[1] It has been revealed in previous sessions that nobody knows what the future holds, not even angels, demons, spirits of Light or Error. Only Eon is able to perceive all the possibilities in Parallel and Alternate Universes. Time travelers know the future as well, but they won't say anything about it

The PGA Championship is the year's fourth major, both in schedule and in the minds of the players. But this year it will become the first major to have true fan involvement.
Related: How to make the PGA Championship cooler
Not that it should cause too much buzz, but fans will have a chance to vote on the final-round hole location for Oak Hill's par-3 15th hole. The fan voting will be hosted by Jack Nicklaus, who won his fifth and final PGA Championship at the Rochester, N.Y., course in 1980.
"The opportunity for fans to take part in the interactive 'PGA Championship Pick the Hole Location Challenge' is part of a new era in engagement that connects golf fans with the Season's Final Major in a fun and dramatic way," said PGA President Ted Bishop. "The PGA of America is delighted to present this innovative opportunity, as we believe this is the first time that consumers have been able to make a direct and significant impact on a global sports arena. We are honored that the legendary Jack Nicklaus will lead fans as their host and teacher in understanding the nuances that the greatest players in golf consider and think about regarding course setup and hole locations -- and the effect their selection will have on the eventual outcome of the 95th PGA Championship."
Fans are encouraged to visit PGA.com from July 23-Aug. 10 in order to vote for one of four possible hole locations on the 181-yard hole during Sunday's final round on Aug. 11 (shown above). Of course, those four have been selected by the PGA of America, meaning devious fans can't just say they want the pin cut one yard over the water hazard that guards the green. A video with Jack Nicklaus goes more in-depth about the four options.
Related: The craziest finishes in PGA Championship history
While this may be aimed at fans, nowhere does it say players are excluded from participating as well. Phil Mickelson was very vocal about a few of Muirfield's pin positions on Thursday of the British Open, which he ultimately won. Always looking for any edge, maybe Lefty will stuff the ballot box for that right-side location. . .

Everything Bagel Hummus has all the flavors you love of those classic bagels but in a healthy, gluten free form! Creamy chickpeas mixed with toasted garlic, dried onions then sprinkled with sesame seeds and poppy seeds!
All throughout high school, I had a go to lunch of everything bagel dipped into chicken tortilla soup.
It may sound odd, but hear me out.
Despite coming with a healthy and delicious lunch of a whole wheat turkey sandwich, swiss cake roll, some carrot sticks and a Lifesavor mint, I would quickly kick my lunch to the curb when I found out the chicken tortilla soup was on the hot line.
This soup is what every chicken tortilla soup dreams to be.
Tender shredded chicken, a creamy, sweet & slightly spicy base that reminded me of eating a giant bowl of those cornmeal nuggets you get as a dessert at a Mexican restaurant. There was the perfect amount of warmth and spice for my 16 year old taste buds. It was the perfect bowl to warm my insides and get my fill of Mexican food until I found my next endless bowl of tortilla chips.
What really made this lunch superior was my infatuation with dipping a chewy Everything Bagel into the soup. It may sound like oil and vinegar but they worked beautifully together. The bagel was bold and complex. The crust of sesame seeds, poppy seeds and salt had that crunchy exterior to counteract the chewy inside.
When the soup and the bagel get together, angels sing. The spicy and slightly sweet soup plays off the savory and complex flavors from the garlic, onions, sesame seeds, poppy seeds and salt. Plus the bagel is the perfect vehicle for the soup straight into your mouth.
In effort to obtain the bagel flavor that makes my mouth water, I incorporated them into my next batch of hummus. Needless to say, I have been through 2 batches. In a week. With no help from the other human that I cohabitate with.
All the ingredients are more than likely in your pantry as we speak. Therefore, there is nothing stopping you from enjoying an everything bagel in mere minutes.
Now, where is my bowl of Chicken Tortilla Soup?

Aerospace has become a key economic sector for the autonomous Basque community since its heavy industries declined in the 1970s and 1980s. Today, the traditional engineering region hosts a range of different aviation and space specialists, which contribute to making this stretch of land - by Iberian standards unusually rainy and lush - on the edge of the Bay of Biscay one of the wealthiest parts of Spain.
SENER, the Spanish engineering group founded in the largest Basque city, Bilbao, in the mid-1950s, started the region's aerospace activities in 1966, when it began working on a number of European astronautical projects, leading up to the first Ariane rocket, Ulysses probe and Spacelab.
For ITP, the low-pressure turbine is an area of particular expertise
In February this year, the company inked its largest-ever space contract with the European Space Agency to produce the antenna subsystem for the Solar Orbiter (SOLO) scientific satellite, which is to observe the heliosphere and polar regions of the sun.
The Basque aerospace cluster association, HEGAN, comprises 36 member organisations with approximately 3,700 employees in the region and a total of 10,600 including affiliated plants throughout Spain and elsewhere in the world. Together they registered sales worth €1.2 billion ($1.6 billion at the current rate) in 2010, with around half that volume being generated in the region.
While 2010 was a period of stagnation, HEGAN estimates that last year's total revenues went up by around 6%, while the number of jobs at the respective companies grew by 5%. "Major increases" are expected in the coming years as a result of the planned production ramp-up of new aircraft, especially the Boeing 787 and Airbus A350. If these programmes take off as planned, the total turnover of all HEGAN member plants, including facilities outside the Basque region, will grow by around 80% by 2016.
A dominant force in the region is Industria de Turbo Propulsores (ITP). The Bilbao-based engine specialist is co-owned by SENER Group (53%) and Rolls-Royce (47%), and generates around 80% of its turnover - nearly €483 million in total sales in 2010 - at three local component and subassembly production plants. The remaining custom comes from a mainly military-based overhaul shop in Madrid and international maintenance and production facilities.
With the low-pressure turbine (LPT) being its area of particular expertise, ITP developed the module for all Rolls-Royce Trent engines and is responsible for its manufacture on the 900, 1000 and XWB variants, resulting in a 10% workshare in the respective A380, 787 and A350 powerplants. But the company is also involved in other commercial and military engine programmes, including the Eurojet EJ200 and Europrop TP400 for the Eurofighter Typhoon and Airbus Military A400M military transport.
Around 1,260 employees from ITP's total, 2,850-strong workforce are located in the Basque region. The main facility is in Zamudio, near Bilbao, where ITP fabricates components, assembles the Trent LPTs and has its engineering department. The plant also produces the EJ200 exhaust nozzle, which makes it the only site in Europe to develop thrust-vectoring nozzles, according to ITP.
In nearby Barakaldo is a 20,000m2 (215,000ft2) casting facility, employing approximately 150 staff. While it carries the name of the Swiss junior partner Precicast, which holds 20% in the joint venture, ITP owns the remaining majority. The site fabricates mainly LPT vanes for ITP, but also produces other parts, such as compressor vanes and structural components, for external manufacturers including General Electric, Pratt & Whitney and MTU.
The third plant, which is located close to the main Zamudio site and specialises in the production of pipes and ducts, has around 100 employees.
Although ITP has sufficient facility space for the Trent 1000 and XWB production, having expanded its footprint sixfold over the past decade, the company needs to acquire more manufacturing machinery for the ramp-up. Chief executive Ignacio Mataix says that the firm will invest €15-20 million per annum over the next five to six years.
Aerostructures specialist Aernnova is also hedging its bets on aircraft programmes either side of the Atlantic.
After it delivered the first centre wing box for the Bombardier CSeries in January, the first elevator for the A350 followed last month. Both carbon-composite constructions are manufactured at the firm's main plant in Berantevilla, in the Álava province.
Aernnova also produces the horizontal stabiliser, rudder and main landing gear bay pressure bulkheads for the A350, fuselage and wing components for the 747-8, empennage for the Embraer 170/190 series, and various airframe assemblies for the Sikorsky S-92 helicopter, to name but a few.
Set up as Gamesa Aeronáutica in 1993, the company started fabricating the wing and engine nacelle for the Embraer ERJ-145. When it was acquired by a consortium led by Caja Castilla La Mancha Corporation in 2006, it was renamed Aernnova. Last year, the manufacturer generated a €476 million turnover with around 4,120 employees, a third of whom are located in the Basque country.
Three other facilities - Hegal, Moasa and Fuasa - used to be located in the region, but these operations, including their approximately 600 employees, have been moved to Berantevilla after the company doubled the plant's size to around 20,000m2 last year. The site now serves as assembly centre for both metal and composite aerostructures, and houses the company's management and engineering department.
About 1,260 ITP employees are located in the Basque region
The engineers are working on the design of a laminar-flow demonstrator wing section, which is to be flight-tested as part of the European Clean Sky research initiative on the A340 prototype in 2014, and the "PAMELA" structural health-monitoring system.
Berantevilla is also home to a production plant of aerostructure and engine component manufacturer Aciturri Aeronautica. The company is headquartered in Miranda de Ebro, however - a kilometre or two across the border with the neighbouring Castilla y Leon region.
The nearly 6,000m2 facility in Berantevilla employs around 60 staff members and specialises in metallic components, which largely comprise engine parts for ITP's nearby production line.
While this makes up almost 15% of its custom, Aciturri's main business lies in manufacturing airframe components for Airbus. The company bought a number of other aerostructure specialists across Spain over the past four years to build up both metal and composite capabilities. Today, it produces parts of the A350 vertical stabiliser and aft fuselage; the complete A320 fuselage section 18; passenger doors and horizontal stabiliser leading edges for the A330/A340; and the centre wing box for the CN-235/C-295.
Like its regional neighbours, however, Aciturri wants to diversify its activities beyond Airbus. The company has secured rudder production for the Boeing 737 and, in January, inked a deal with Embraer to design and manufacture the wing-to-body fairing for the planned KC-390 military transport. But competing for such contracts is difficult, admits Ester Porras, head of innovation at Aciturri.
After much investment by both the private and public sectors over the past 20 years, Spain's aerospace industry has been able to increase its workshare in international programmes and develop the required technology.
"We have done a lot of homework," says Mataix. Nevertheless, he thinks that the Spanish aerospace industry needs to become more productive. As salary increases are being driven by inflation in Spain, and the cost of living rose around 15% faster than in France and Germany, he reports that the sector is battling with an increasing cost disadvantage against its northern competitors.
Government budget cuts are another hurdle, particularly for military programmes such as the A400M, but also in terms of research and development support. Aerospace companies in the Basque region have been directing 15% of their turnovers into R&D, according to HEGAN. But the sector also enjoyed public aid for its work. If this dries up, it will have an impact on future work and growth.
"In our industry you can never stop. If you see an opportunity, you will not see its [return] in the short term but in five years from now," says Mataix. "If you don't invest in a programme it will not create a hole now but in four, five years. We need to invest in new programmes and platforms to maintain our growth."

Here's a fun idea I saw on {Country Living}
Just split up cookie dough into four sections and color each section a different fall hue. Randomly piece them back together and roll flat. Then, cut out leaf shaped cookies.
Aren't they gorgeous!!? I love the way they look! Especially with the vein detail carved in.
If you want to get really fancy, you can make an edible cookie wreath by attaching them to a cardboard circle, using frosting.
Ta-Da! Very cute!!

Boy has it been a long time since I've shopped for a dress online - so many cute options! Including these amazing V-day approved pieces. For some reason (probably because they are super loose and comfy) I have always been into shift dresses, especially in bright pops of colour, so I am head over heels for number four (it would be adorable with a gold belt). I am also such a sucker for a good, bright red, and numbers one and six are to die for. I haven't quite nailed my v-day dress yet but any of these (paired with chocolates and champagne) would make for a wonderful evening.
Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful Monday!

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
For instance, there was once an insanely aggressive race of people called the Silastic Armorfiends of Striterax. That was just the name of their race. The name of their army was something quite horrific. Luckily they lived even further back in Galactic history than anything we have so far encountered - twenty billion years ago - when the Galaxy was young and fresh, and every idea worth fighting for was a new one.
And fighting was what the Silastic Armorfiends of Striterax were good at, and being good at it, they did a lot. They fought their enemies (i.e. everybody else), they fought each other. Their planet was a complete wreck. The surface was littered with abandoned cities which were surrounded by abandoned war machines, which were in turn surrounded by deep bunkers in which the Silastic Armorfiends lived and squabbled with each other.
The best way to pick a fight with a Silastic Armorfiend was just to be born. They didn't like it, they got resentful. And when an Armorfiend got resentful, someone got hurt. An exhausting way of life, one might think, but they did seem to have an awful lot of energy.
The best way of dealing with a Silastic Armorfiend was to put him into a room of his own, because sooner or later he would simply beat himself up.
Eventually they realized that this was something they were going to have to sort out, and they passed a law decreeing that anyone who had to carry a weapon as part of his normal Silastic work (policemen, security guards, primary school teachers, etc.) had to spend at least forty-five minutes every day punching a sack of potatoes in order to work off his or her surplus aggressions.
For a while this worked well, until someone thought that it would be much more efficient and less time-consuming if they just shot the potatoes instead.
This led to a renewed enthusiasm for shooting all sorts of things, and they all got very excited at the prospect of their first major war for weeks.
Another achievement of the Silastic Armorfiends of Striterax is that they were the first race who ever managed to shock a computer.
It was a gigantic spaceborne computer called Hactar, which to this day is remembered as one of the most powerful ever built. It was the first to be built like a natural brain, in that every cellular particle of it carried the pattern of the whole within it, which enabled it to think more flexibly and imaginatively, and also, it seemed, to be shocked.
The Silastic Armorfiends of Striterax were engaged in one of their regular wars with the Strenuous Garfighters of Stug, and were not enjoying it as much as usual because it involved an awful lot of trekking through the Radiation Swamps of Cwulzenda, and across the Fire Mountains of Frazfraga, neither of which terrains they felt at home in.
So when the Strangulous Stilettans of Jajazikstak joined in the fray and forced them to fight another front in the Gamma Caves of Carfrax and the Ice Storms of Varlengooten, they decided that enough was enough, and they ordered Hactar to design for them an Ultimate Weapon.
"What do you mean," asked Hactar, "by Ultimate?"
To which the Silastic Armorfiends of Striterax said, "Read a bloody dictionary," and plunged back into the fray.
So Hactar designed an Ultimate Weapon.
It was a very, very small bomb which was simply a junction box in hyperspace that would, when activated, connect the heart of every major sun with the heart of every other major sun simultaneously and thus turn the entire Universe in to one gigantic hyperspatial supernova.
When the Silastic Armorfiends tried to use it to blow up a Strangulous Stilettan munitions dump in one of the Gamma Caves, they were extremely irritated that it didn't work, and said so.
Hactar had been shocked by the whole idea.
He tried to explain that he had been thinking about this Ultimate Weapon business, and had worked out that there was no conceivable consequence of not setting the bomb off that was worse than the known consequence of setting it off, and he had therefore taken the liberty of introducing a small flaw into the design of the bomb, and he hoped that everyone involved would, on sober reflection, feel that ...
The Silastic Armorfiends disagreed and pulverized the computer.
Later they thought better of it, and destroyed the faulty bomb as well. Then, pausing only to smash the hell out of the Strenuous Garfighters of Stug, and the Strangulous Stilettans of Jajazikstak, they went on to find an entirely new way of blowing themselves up, which was a profound relief to everyone else in the Galaxy, particularly the Garfighters, the Stilettans and the potatoes.

Temporary Custody
Once you begin your divorce process, the divorce court has authority to enter a temporary custody or support order to be in effect while the divorce is pending; however, such orders are not automatic. To obtain a custody order, you must file a motion with the court or include your request in your initial divorce complaint, along with a plan for custody. If you and your spouse agree on the custody arrangement, you can file the motion and plan together, but if you don't agree, each of you must file separate motions and separate custody plans.
Court Review
If you and your spouse agree, the court likely will approve your plan as proposed. Even so, the court's ultimate goal is to determine what is in the best interests of your child, so Ohio law gives the court authority to investigate as needed to determine the child's best interests. The court may look into the parents' earning ability, past conduct and family relations, and order you and your spouse to submit to medical, psychiatric and psychological examinations to help it reach a decision about what arrangements are in your child's best interests.
Types of Custody
Ohio courts can award all parental rights and responsibilities to one parent, called the sole residential parent and legal custodian. If you are have sole residential and legal custody, you make the important decisions for your child, including where he goes to school, what medical treatment he receives and whether he attends religious services. Your ex-spouse will have no authority to make these decisions. In the alternative, the court may grant the rights and responsibilities of parenting to both parents, which is called shared parenting.
Shared Parenting
In Ohio, the court cannot award shared parenting unless at least one parent requests it and files a shared parenting plan with the court. Shared parenting does not necessarily mean you and your ex-spouse have an equal, 50/50 division of time with your child. Some shared parenting plans give parents equal physical time with their child while other plans may give one parent a greater share of time and the other parent custody on alternating weekends and one or two evenings during the week.

The movie Bohemian Rhapsody celebrates the iconic rock band Queen and its legendary lead vocalist, Freddie Mercury. But when we see pictures of the flamboyant singer, many fans both old and new may wonder—what made Freddie's toothy smile look the way it did? Here's the answer: The singer was born with four extra teeth at the back of his mouth, which caused his front teeth to be pushed forward, giving him a noticeable overbite.
The presence of extra teeth—more than 20 primary (baby) teeth or 32 adult teeth—is a relatively rare condition called hyperdontia. Sometimes this condition causes no trouble, and an extra tooth (or two) isn't even recognized until the person has an oral examination. In other situations, hyperdontia can create problems in the mouth such as crowding, malocclusion (bad bite) and periodontal disease. That's when treatment may be recommended.
Exactly what kind of treatment is needed? There's a different answer for each individual, but in many cases the problem can be successfully resolved with tooth extraction (removal) and orthodontic treatment (such as braces). Some people may be concerned about having teeth removed, whether it's for this problem or another issue. But in skilled hands, this procedure is routine and relatively painless.
Teeth aren't set rigidly in the jawbone like posts in cement—they are actually held in place dynamically by a fibrous membrane called the periodontal ligament. With careful manipulation of the tooth, these fibers can be dislodged and the tooth can be easily extracted. Of course, you won't feel this happening because extraction is done under anesthesia (often via a numbing shot). In addition, you may be given a sedative or anti-anxiety medication to help you relax during the procedure.
After extraction, some bone grafting material may be placed in the tooth socket and gauze may be applied to control bleeding; sutures (stitches) are sometimes used as well. You'll receive instructions on medication and post-extraction care before you go home. While you will probably feel discomfort in the area right after the procedure, in a week or so the healing process will be well underway.
Sometimes, dental problems like hyperdontia need immediate treatment because they can negatively affect your overall health; at other times, the issue may be mainly cosmetic. Freddie Mercury declined treatment because he was afraid dental work might interfere with his vocal range. But the decision to change the way your smile looks is up to you; after an examination, we can help you determine what treatment options are appropriate for your own situation.
If you have questions about tooth extraction or orthodontics, please contact our office or schedule a consultation. You can read more in the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Simple Tooth Extraction" and "The Magic of Orthodontics."
In her decades-long career, renowned actress Kathy Bates has won Golden Globes, Emmys, and many other honors. Bates began acting in her twenties, but didn't achieve national recognition until she won the best actress Oscar for Misery — when she was 42 years old! "I was told early on that because of my physique and my look, I'd probably blossom more in my middle age," she recently told Dear Doctor magazine. "[That] has certainly been true." So if there's one lesson we can take from her success, it might be that persistence pays off.
When it comes to her smile, Kathy also recognizes the value of persistence. Now 67, the veteran actress had orthodontic treatment in her 50's to straighten her teeth. Yet she is still conscientious about wearing her retainer. "I wear a retainer every night," she said. "I got lazy about it once, and then it was very difficult to put the retainer back in. So I was aware that the teeth really do move."
Indeed they do. In fact, the ability to move teeth is what makes orthodontic treatment work. By applying consistent and gentle forces, the teeth can be shifted into better positions in the smile. That's called the active stage of orthodontic treatment. Once that stage is over, another begins: the retention stage. The purpose of retention is to keep that straightened smile looking as good as it did when the braces came off. And that's where the retainer comes in.
There are several different kinds of retainers, but all have the same purpose: To hold the teeth in their new positions and keep them from shifting back to where they were. We sometimes say teeth have a "memory" — not literally, but in the sense that if left alone, teeth tend to migrate back to their former locations. And if you've worn orthodontic appliances, like braces or aligners, that means right back where you started before treatment.
By holding the teeth in place, retainers help stabilize them in their new positions. They allow new bone and ligaments to re-form and mature around them, and give the gums time to remodel themselves. This process can take months to years to be complete. But you may not need to wear a retainer all the time: Often, removable retainers are worn 24 hours a day at first; later they are worn only at night. We will let you know what's best in your individual situation.
So take a tip from Kathy Bates, star of the hit TV series American Horror Story, and wear your retainer as instructed. That's the best way to keep your straight new smile from changing back to the way it was — and to keep a bad dream from coming true.
If you would like more information about orthodontic retainers, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can learn more about this topic in the Dear Doctor magazine articles "Why Orthodontic Retainers?" and "The Importance of Orthodontic Retainers." The interview with Kathy Bates appears in the latest issue of Dear Doctor.

Eminem's upcoming Relapse: Refill album re-release will reportedly feature bonus contributions from Kanye West, Drake and Lil Wayne and an additional seven tracks.
According to reports, the bonus Relapse tracks will include Em's "Forever" collaboration.
Relapse: Refill: 1. People Make Me 2. Taking My Bail 3. Insult To Injury 4. Outlet 5. Carrington Pool 6. Forever featuring Drake, Kanye West and Lil Wayne 7. Stainless Ego (Team Supreme Music)
Music charting website Hits Daily Double initially broke the news on Em's bonus album re-release.
Looks like it's going to be a white Christmas after all as Aftermath/Interscope will release Eminem's Relapse: Refill on Dec. 22, a deluxe version which includes the album plus seven new tracks. (Hits Daily Double)
The decision to treat fans to a pre-Relapse 2 was explained in a press release earlier this week.
Titled Relapse: Refill, the disc will feature seven new tracks, the DJ Hero bonus cut "Take My Ball" and five never-released songs. "I want to deliver more material for the fans this year like I originally planned," Em said in a press release. "Hopefully these tracks on the Refill will tide the fans over until we put out Relapse 2 next year." (XXL Mag)
Em updated fans on the status of Relapse 2 and its overall content last month.
"[I'm] pretty much finished as far as recording," Eminem revealed. "I think all that's left to do is mix. And you know, in the mixing process, if I come up with anything else then [it will be on there.] I think it's gonna be a lot different, a lot different than what people expect as far as the contrast from the last record to this one, I think I went back…I got a couple of tracks with Mr. Porter, I got two tracks on the album with him so far, four, possibly five with Just Blaze and I think the overall basis of the record is — it's more emotional driven. Like the last record, I was more concentrated on spitting, but with this record, I feel like there's some of that, but at the same time I went back to making songs with feels to them as opposed to just rap records…I'm putting everything I got into this next record. All my focus, just everything, I just want to finish that project and I'll take it from there." (Toca Tuesdays)
Relapse: Refill is slated to drop Tuesday, December 22nd
