I love the chance to spend time in nature and living in Alberta, Canada gives me great opportunities to do so. I love hiking in The Rocky Mountains, cycling, skiing or sometimes just getting in a raft and floating down the big wide Bow River.
Eventually, all that time in nature makes me hungry though and that's when it's good to spend a little of my time in the great outdoors with a cadre of culinary instructors from SAIT Polytechnic's School of Hospitality and Tourism. Once a year we go on a hike that turns into an episode of Bounty Hunter. The bounty in this case is food and the hunting is part of the gathering we do on their annual foraging day in the foothills of The Rocky Mountains.
You might be a confirmed "urban forager" but in case you'd like to take a walk on the wild side of food read on…

Huawei is a name that most of us have been hearing more and more often lately, as the company has really been pushing its presence in the North American market. It's currently offering some really unique hardware, like the 6.1-inch Ascend Mate 2, which sports a massive 3,900mAh battery. Huawei claims that it'll get you through an entire weekend without needing to hit the wall (up to 2.5 days to be exact). That's pretty insane, especially when you consider the device's $300 price tag. It certainly piqued my interest, anyway.
Other than the gargantuan battery, this big ol' phone is packing some respectable features:
- 6.1-inch 1280x720 display with Gorilla Glass 3
- 1.6GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 (MSM89280)
- 16GB storage with microSD card slot
- 13MP f/2.2 28mm rear camera, 5MP front selfie machine
- 6.3" x 3.3" x .37", 202 grams
- GSM 850/900/1800/1900; LTE Bands 2, 4, 5, 17
- Android 4.3 (Will be updated to 4.4)
Another really awesome feature of the Mate 2 is its ability to share its battery. Yeah – you can charge other devices from the Mate 2. How cool is that? If you're out with friends and someone ends up with a dead battery, you can be their savior. Pretty sweet.
Of course, you need a special cable (called a "Reverse Charge" cable) for that, but if you buy the Mate 2 on Amazon right now, you'll score a free one. And if that's not enough, the deal also includes a free Smart Window Case. So, you buy the phone for $300, and get the Reverse Charge Cable and Smart Window case for free. Not bad at all.
Intrigued? For more information on everything the Ascend 2 is all about, check out GetHuawei.com
This contest is now over.
The final results are listed below. If you've won, you will be contacted in the near future. Congratulations!

Web Directory Submission Danger: Analysis of 2,678 Directories Shows 20% Penalized/Banned by GoogleBlog Post: May 30, 2012
I like the thread but what puzzles me is why some of you are still looking for directories to post links to? Google have been telling us for years not to buy links or manipulate the results.
But in the interests of profit it's impossible for businesses to resist the lure of trying to get the elusive top spots in Google so the game continues.
Google say one thing, some SEO companies circumnavigate them by creating the next big product that beats Google.
I think the message is very simple to understand. Don't buy links from anyone. Don't bother submitting your link to a directory that you've never been on because it probably doesn't have any traffic anyway.
If you feel you may maybe manipulating the results with your online marketing activity, then you probably are.
Links are supposed to be votes of confidence in your content. Not a big number that you paid for.
I think it's unfair to make the reference to India in the way it was made. There are a lot of good seo companies in India but just like anywhere else in the world there are a lot of bad ones to.
It's understandable that people all over the world have been trying to get a better position in Google since it all began, but now it's time to stop because the rewards are outweighed by the risks.
I'm not a big fan of Google, don't get me wrong they have done so much good over the years and are innovative in most things that they do. For me search has become too complicated for your average small business, it's too much of an investment for many and only a small number succeed. Risk versus reward= Don't for many.
I personally think it's time to take the advertising budget out of the web and put it back into the community where it will make a difference.
Small businesses around the globe were in business well before the internet turned up and they will continue to be innovative in business going forwards. Do we really need all this messing about just to put an advert for our business online.
For those who want to carry on chasing the rainbow, Just add up how much money you've spent online in the last five years and think what you could have done with that money in traditional advertising.
Of course there are winners but on the web there are many more losers than winners.
Keep your web site but stop wasting money chasing rainbows. Either get a top professional and pay them or take another look at the whole web thing. Probably 80% plus of small businesses are loosing money hand over fist on the Internet.

One of the most popular and common materials used in constructing walkways is cobblestone – a small paving stone with rounded edges that has been used for paving streets and walkways for centuries. Not only are cobblestone walkways extremely durable, but they also exude a vintage, rustic and elegant look and feel for your garden.
Choosing to construct a cobblestone pathway yourself can save you a good deal of money but will take several days or a couple of weekends to complete. Below I will outline, step for step, the process of constructing a pathway of cobblestone;
1. Decide where and at what width you would like your walkway. Once you have done this, make an outline of it by placing wooden stakes in the ground and connect them using string. Make sure you know the measurements of the whole walkway to ensure that you purchase the right amount of cobblestones and other necessary materials.
2. Prepare the ground inside the string for the installation of the cobblestones by clearing the area of any debris, rocks, weeds or roots. When determining to what depth you should excavate the area, it is important to consider the necessity of allowing for 2 inches of both gravel and sand, and so excavate to a depth of 4 inches. It is important that the walkway is at least 1 inch above the ground to avoid water pooling, and so excavation depth should not take into account the depth of the cobblestones.
3. Lay approximately 2 inches of gravel in the excavated area and tamp it with a trowel to compact it. This will eliminate any air pockets and compress the gravel. Continue this process until you achieve the desired depth of the gravel – for adequate drainage, 2 or more inches is recommended.
4. Pour a layer of quality sand on top of the gravel to a depth of about 2 inches. Again tamp the sand with a trowel and ensure it is 2 inches thick and level.
5. Starting from one corner, lay your stones one at a time. Place the bigger stones first and then fill the empty spaces with smaller ones. Make sure each is level and positioned firmly in the surface.
6. Secure the cobblestones in their place using a rubber mallet. Use a level to determine that not only each stone is flat and horizontal but that the whole walkway is as well.
7. Once you have laid all the cobblestones and ensured they are all level, fill the empty spaces between them with dry sand using a broom or brush. Once all the cracks are filled, wet the sand to compact it, then allowing it to dry completely. After it has dried, add more sand as needed and repeat the soaking process.
8. Once you are completely satisfied with your driveway, apply a sealant appropriate for cobblestones to increase your pathway's durability and life. This will also prevent any unwanted plant and weed growth and hold the sand between cobblestones together. During application, follow the instructions provided on the sealant's packaging.

Fantasy Baseball's comeback performer of the year has already been decided, and while there is no Magic 8-ball or Ouija board informing us that Bryce Harper or Felix Hernandez have locked up honors, the choice happens to be a longtime Fantasy Baseball owner who came out of a lengthy hiatus to for a worthy cause.
Robin Brecker is a rabid Yankees fan ("I know them all from Gary Sanchez to the players in short season Single-A ball") whose experience in Fantasy Baseball dates back to the early 1980s and the origins of the genre. Brecker joined the Grimes League in its third year of existence in 1983, a time when The Police hung on Every Breath You Take, J.R. Ewing ran Dallas and Donald Trump's vision of Making America Great Again hinged on buying the USFL's New Jersey Generals.
"The auction was in West Palm Beach, so myself and a couple of other owners caught the train down there," said Brecker. "When we made the stop in Washington, D.C., we all went out and picked up a copy of USA Today, which was beginning to establish itself and happened to be the only paper where you could get information on each team. Back then, you'd grab that and a copy of Street and Smith's and be prepared."
What was originally an eight-team league morphed into 12 by the mid-1980s as the Grimes League (named after an insurance agent several of the owners met during the 1980 Kentucky Derby) became a yearly ritual that took two days to complete its draft. The league stayed true to the rules of Rotisserie baseball with a 4×4 setting and remained strong until the love of Fantasy Golf began to take the focus off baseball. Gradually, the Grimes League started losing traction and eventually ceased a decade ago.
Tragedy happened to sow the seeds to a possible revival when one of the original owners passed away last year, leaving behind a wife and boys aged 10 and 13. In an attempt to help the family, Brecker came up with the idea of breathing life back into the league for the specific cause of supporting one the pillars of the Grimes League.
"We decided to make the pay-in $110, with all but $10 going to the family," Brecker said. "It's not a lot and isn't life changing, but we felt that by getting back together and playing Fantasy Baseball would be a great way to honor our friend and help his sons."
With most of the owners well into their 60s, there was little desire to grind out a two-day draft, so Brecker and one of his sons decided on a fairly simple format to keep the game competitive without missing time with the grandchildren in favor of deep reading of Baseball Prospectus and excessive time on RotoExperts.com (hey, we have to toot our own horn here).
"Five hitters and five hitters. That's it," said Brecker. "We got together at the Corner Bakery in Philadelphia and conducted the draft, which took all of 45 minutes. "It happened so fast that no one could believe it. "The original Rotisserie rules are still there, but we conduct transactions and trades every four weeks, so that keeps us from having to spend so much time on who the hot players are. With only 10 total players, every pitch has a greater impact."
"I have to admit that it was hard to come back and prepare for Fantasy Baseball," Brecker added. "Once you stop playing it, you only want to focus on your favorite team, so it was all Yankees for me."
The Grimes League is a living history of how Fantasy Baseball has evolved over the past four decades. In the early days of the league, a 13-page report on standings and stats were Xeroxed and mailed to the respective owners. Brecker said he had to find a way to work out the cost of copying and mailing the league with the company he worked with at the time, an issue that resulted in little trouble. As technology began to emerge, the league was able to find a friend who worked at the Philadelphia Stock Exchange who had the ability to download stats via MS-DOS that allowed the men of Grimes to follow the exploits of 1980s Fantasy mainstays like Vince Coleman, Eric Davis, Orel Hershiser and Mike Scott. For this year's draft, the league's owners used the likes of Google spreadsheets in order to keep things flowing.
"Print was everything back then," said Brecker. "The bigger newspapers would always put out this big preview of the season the day before Opening Day that allowed you to get an idea of who could help your team. They would also publish the box scores of the previous day's games the following morning. When you think about how far along we've come with the ability to get information, it feels like we were in a covered wagon."
The brief draft allowed the owners to gather together at a nearby establishment and enjoy the reunion longer than expected. "It was a great feeling to come back together, especially when you consider the reason why we did," said Brecker. "We each felt like we moved that much closer to heaven by helping out the boys."
As much as the Grimes League is having fun thus far, the future remains a question. "I'm really not sure how much longer we will do this," said Brecker. "It's not that there's a lack of interest, but as you get older, you value your time. We will continue to find ways to support the boys, but it may not be through Fantasy Baseball."
Brecker gets a level of satisfaction when recalling the time he pitched the story of the Grimes League to Sports Illustrated in 1984. "They laughed at the concept," he said. "They told me it was just a fad for geeks and nerds that would eventually pass. I think they were wrong with that assessment."
Those interested in following the league can do so via ungrimes.wordpress.com or on Twitter at @UnGrimesLeague.
"If anything comes of this, I hope that it will inspire other Fantasy leagues to consider doing what we did in order to help our friend," said Brecker. "Perhaps there are bigger charities that could see this and push it forward. It's something that is needed throughout the world."

Ex-fiancee of sacked TV anchor denies they had a recent affair despite her racy novel in which a spurned lover becomes an anchorman's mistress
- Sources close to former TV reporter Jennifer Rainville have denied she returned to her relationship with Rob Morrison who is facing charges of choking his wife
- Parallels between her self-published novel's character and Morrison are noticeable but friends deny she was one of the conquests which rocked his 11-year marriage which allegedly turned violent last week
- Morrison was arrested last Sunday accused of drunkenly attacking Ashley Morrison at their Connecticut home
- The Anchor resigned from his $300,000-a-year post at CBS this week as stories of 'multiple infidelities' and previous 'violent' incidents with his wife emerged
A former TV reporter and ex of disgraced TV anchor Rob Morrison has been forced to deny she was one of the lovers who rocked his marriage after self-publishing a steamy novel where a 'hunky newsman' cheats on his wife with her protagonist.
Jennifer Rainville, a media consultant who now works for state senator Jeff Klein, has a long past with Morrison who was arrested last Sunday for allegedly choking his wife Ashley in a 'drink-fueled rage'.
Former NBC reporter Rainville was engaged to the CBS anchorman until 2002 when she discovered he was allegedly cheating on her with his now wife.
Scroll down for video
Disgraced ex-CBS News anchor Rob Morrison has agreed to a plea deal that means he can avoid jail for allegedly strangling his wife, Ashley Morrison. The couple have reportedly been seen spending time together again
Stories have emerged of Morrison's infidelities since his arrest which has left many raising eyebrows at Rainville's romantic novel 'Trance of Insignificance' which follows a young producer's relationship with an older violent, alcoholic news anchor.
In the book the anchor leaves her to marry another TV journalist but their affair continues behind his new wife's back.
Ashley Morrison is also an anchor at CBS's Moneywatch.
However, friends of Rainville dismissed the parallels as pure coincidence today.
A source told the New York Post: 'After she broke off the engagement, she found out that he was cheating on her with Ashley. She had no contact or relationship with him. It was over 10 years ago. It's part of her past.'
Several salacious stories have emerged this week about 44-year-old Morrison, who was forced to step down from his job over the allegations of domestic violence.
Reports claim Ashley Morrison, 40, told a friend about her husband's affair with a young colleague and even recorded her husband while he shopped for 'sex toys' with her.
It came during Morrison's stint at NBC before he moved to CBS.
She reportedly planted a digital recorder in his car to catch him and told the friend: 'You've got to hear this tape. They went to a sex store together!'
'They [Rob and his mistress] were caught talking about [sex toys],' the source told the New York Post. 'They were talking vividly on the tape.'
Morrison's lawyer, Robert Skovgaard, declined to discuss the secret taping and the allegations about Rainville.
'We have no further comment to make regarding Mister Morrison,' he told the Post. 'The media need to let the Morrisons handle this personal, family matter privately.'
The couple's relationship has been troubled for years family sources have said despite the fact they have a 7-year-old son together and have since put out a joint statement saying Sunday's incident had been blown out of proportion.
'Inspiration': Ms Rainville's novel tells the story of a philandering news anchor living in New York
Morrison was photographed drowning his sorrows in a Stamford bar following his resignation from his $300,000-a-year job on Wednesday.
He previously said Ms Rainville's book was 'completely fictitious'.
The novel follows news anchor Jack Culligan, who has lots in common with Morrison.
He too is a married father of one and military veteran who lives on New York's Upper West Side, with a second home on Long Island.
In the novel, the lead character Jules, is seduced by handsome Culligan and they begin a relationship that turns abusive. Later, when married, Jack has an affair with Jules.
Rainville, who met Morrison at NBC has previously suggested her plot is based on real life experience but said it was ultimately fiction.
'Much of the settings and many of my experiences served as the inspiration,' Rainville told Mediabistro.com. 'But the characters are invented. It's fiction.'
She later added it was a 'juicy and fun puzzle for those who are in the news business'.
Morrison said in response that he had dated Ms Rainville before he was married but that he had not seen her since they split in 2002, adding they were 'barking up the wrong tree'.
Accusation: Rob Morrison's family home in Darien, Connecticut where it is alleged that he choked wife Ashley Morrison in the early hours of last Sunday morning
The allegations follow claims on Wednesday that Morrison had been unfaithful to his wife in 2008, and even moved a mistress into the couple's Long Island home while he lived in Manhattan with his family.
Ashley Morrison apparently sent a memo to NBC management about the romance and his contract was not renewed at the channel as a result.
The latest reports emerged after police in Connecticut said that, in an incident prior to his arrest on Sunday, Morrison had drunkenly choked his wife to the point where she almost lost consciousness.
The incident on January 14 allegedly saw the ex-Marine hurling his petite blonde wife to the floor before wrapping his right arm around her neck 'until she reportedly almost passed out', a police report said.
'A. Morrison explained that the "choking" occurred while she was facing the wall and R. Morrison was behind her with his right arm around her neck,' the report said.
The violence erupted when Mrs Morrison voiced her frustration at the fact her husband had come home drunk the previous night following dinner with friends.
Drowning sorrows: Hours after resigning in shame, Rob Morrison could be heard telling patrons in a Stamford bar: 'I just lost my job today'
According to the report Morrison began recording their conversation with his iPhone. When his wife asked him to stop, he refused, and when she tried to grab the phone from his hand, he threw her to the ground, the report said.
'She began hitting R. Morrison with the portable phone in the head in an attempt to get him to stop' at which point the couple's nanny came downstairs, the report said.
Police photographed bruises on Mrs Morrison's arms in the wake of the alleged attack.
The police report, made public on Thursday, said the charges were dropped when Ashley Morrison retracted her sworn written statement detailing the domestic violence.
Morrison told police his wife had flown into a 'rage' at him during an argument and that she struck him with the phone after they both 'fell' on to the floor.
The news anchor admitted to being 'intoxicated' at the time of the incident, said police.
Denial: CBS news anchorman Rob Morrison, left, with his attorney Robert Skovgaard, denies choking his wife
Mrs Morrison currently remains at the family's $1.26million home with the couple's son.
Her husband, who posted $100,000 bail following his arrest on Sunday, is under a court order to stay out of the house and remain at least 100 yards away from Mrs Morrison at all times.
Morrison faces up to five years in prison if convicted on the most serious charge of strangulation in the wake of the alleged attack, said the New York Daily News.
Mrs Morrison's mother has previously spoken out about her daughter's marriage and has described Morrison as a serial spouse abuser with a 10-year history of brutality.
Martha Risk said he had beaten wife Ashley 'for a decade' and 'could easily have killed her.' She said she was finally relieved that her daughter has finally escaped from the destructive marriage.
She said: 'This has gone on for too long... I'm so angry. There is no hope for this man.'

'Violent past': New allegations have emerged that TV anchor Rob Morrison had beaten his wife prior to his arrest on February 17
At around 1.30am on Sunday, Ms Risk received a phone call at her Indiana home from Morrison who she said was 'drunk as a skunk' to say that Ashley was 'out of control.'
She said this led her to be concerned for her daughter's safety so she called the police in Darien and said: 'He's capable of anything. Get there now.'
'He calls me. He knows that I hate him. Why does he call me? I don't know. He's drunk,' she told the New York Daily News.
'You wonder when you are going to get another call, if it's going to be the hospital. How bad is she hurt this time? You have such a horrible feeling in yourself... This has gone on for too long.'
Her son Gregory, an emergency room doctor in North Carolina, also received a late-night call from Morrison. He encouraged his mother to call the cops, telling her, 'We have to stop it now.'
Ms Risk branded Morrison a coward, and said: 'You see (him) hitting another man? (Ashley) weighs 110 pounds - let's take her on. I'm so angry. There is no hope for this man.
'When you choke someone, you know how quick it is to tear a blood vessel? Within minutes, you can kill someone. It's attempted murder.
'She's beautiful. They have this beautiful home, a lovely child. But nobody really knows what goes on.
Violence? Sources say Rob Morrison's wife, Ashley, gave him the bleeding nose and swollen lip seen in this mug shot
'I don't want a pound of flesh. I just want him away. I just want her to be happy. I'm doing something. He can't hold her. You can't let people hold you prisoner. This has gone on for 10 years. I'm angry, so angry,' she said.
Morrison, a former foreign correspondent who worked in Afghanistan and Haiti, claims that he called his mother-in-law Martha Risk 'in good faith' in the hope that she could help calm down his wife.
'I reached out to her mother in good faith looking for a level head in what was a chaotic situation and that's what I got in return,' he told the NY Daily News.
Morrison said tension between him and Ms Risk was 'not new.'
Denial: Morrison denies allegations that he assaulted his petite wife Ashley, pictured
Morrison has said his arrest on Sunday was preceded by an argument with his wife, which he described as the kind of disagreement that 'any family would have'.
It is rumored that Mrs Morrison hit him in the nose. Morrison said his nose was broken but refused to comment on whether his wife had hit him.
Police have been called at least eight times to break up fights between Rob and Ashley Morrison, beginning in 2003. He was arrested once before, in 2009, though the court records from that case are sealed.
On New Year's Eve in 2005, Ashley Morrison dialed 911 and reported that her husband was being emotionally abusive and 'screaming all the time,' the New York Daily News reports.
Resignation: CBS anchor Rob Morrison resigned after being arrested on Sunday for allegedly threatened to kill his wife
In July 2009, a fight broke out after Rob Morrison returned home drunk and started watching internet porn. It was after that encounter that Morrison was arrested - though no details of the case are available.
The Daily News reports that a source said Rob Morrison had struggled with anger problems and alcohol.
Morrison has denied assaulting his wife in the latest incident.
'I did not choke my wife. I have never laid my hands on my wife,' he said. 'I was just as surprised by that particular charge as probably was everyone else whose heard about this story.'
'I love my wife more than anything. The past ten years she has been the most important person in my life. She's helped me through some really difficult times personally,' he added.
He did not enter a plea at his initial hearing at Stamford Supreme Court before Judge Kenneth Povodator, the Darien News reported.
He was charged with felony strangulation in the second degree, misdemeanor threatening in the second degree, and disorderly conduct.
He posted $100,000 bond and is due back in court on March 26.
On Monday the couple released a joint statement dismissing the allegations as 'greatly exaggerated.'
Troubled? Ashley Morrison's family says this isn't the first time the marriage has turned violent
Disgraced: Rob Morrison left his WCBS post following the allegations
A statement from Morrison's attorney, Robert Skovgaard, also said the incident was being blown out of proportion.
'Rob and Ashley Morrison are cooperating fully with the authorities to insure that all of the information necessary to properly evaluate this unfortunate incident is made available,' Skovgaard wrote.
'The Morrisons are confident that a full review of this matter will show that the allegations have been greatly exaggerated. While this matter is being addressed, Rob and Ashley hope that their family's privacy will be respected.'
A CBS spokeswoman declined comment, saying the case was a 'personal matter.'
Morrison ha previously anchored CBS 3 News 'This Morning' and 'News at Noon.'
Previously he worked at NBC 4 and between jobs wrote a blog for the Huffington Post called 'Daddy Diaries: Confessions of a Stay-at-Home Anchorman.'

Now that the human genome has been mapped, the next frontier is to map the human cellular phenotypes. An understanding of all the types of human cells and how they interact in the various tissues and organs will provide the new level of understanding of human biology needed to accomplish medical breakthroughs, understand physiological processes such as human development and aging, and understand pathophysiological processes such as disease and toxicity.
Cells are the basic building blocks of all human tissues and organs. Beginning in the embryo, cells divide and begin to specialize into the different cell types that make up the human body.
General estimates identify several hundred major cell types, however, new methods of characterizing cells show that even within what appears to be a homogenous population there is great variability.
Recent government funding initiatives have spurred innovation and progress in studying cells at the level of the single cell. In 2014, the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded $7.9 million to 25 projects studying various aspects of single cell analysis as part of the Single Cell Analysis Program (SCAP).
On October 13-14, 2016 an international group of renowned researchers met in London to discuss building the Human Cell Atlas. The Human Cell Atlas will be more than just a catalogue of static cell types. Like SCAP, it involves addressing the many challenges in characterizing human cell heterogeneity.
For more on single cell analysis and the new international effort to develop the Human Cell Atlas, see the entire article, "The Human Cell Atlas: An international effort," on AltTox.org.

Learn to Brew Beer at Home in One Session
We currently do not have any dates scheduled for this course, but if you would like to be notified of future dates, please call us at (770) 229-3477.
Want to cook up your own special beer brew at home? Or, maybe you just want to - quickly and painlessly - find out how good beer is made? Take this course with Jailhouse Brewing Company. This course gives participants a working knowledge of the language of brewing and the basics of the brewing processes. It will enable new brewers to determine which home brewing strategies are best suited for their space and resources, allowing them to shop with confidence and avoid some common pitfalls in early batches. Generally, beer is four things: water, barley, hops and yeast. The basic steps of the brewing process are creating wort (extract, mini-mash and all-grain brew mixtures) adding hops, fermenting, carbonating and packaging. We begin with fermentation (the most critical part of the process) and move to the mash and boil, recipe formulation and packaging. Although brewing takes a significant amount of practice, you will leave this class well on your way to impressing friends and family with your newly acquired brewing skills. Sessions: 1; TBD
Location: Jailhouse Brewing Company, 8 Cherry Street, Hampton, GA (alley behind E. Main Street)
Instructor: Glenn Golden, Owner
Equipment Needed for Course: Notepad with pen or pencil
Cost: $39
Materials Fee: $5 (covers grain, hops, yeast, propane, etc.)

At a time when some colleges are favoring applicants who do not require financial aid, Hamilton College in upstate New York has decided to swim against that tide.
Hamilton, a small liberal arts college in Clinton, N.Y., is announcing that it is adopting a need-blind admissions policy. In doing so, it joins a handful of other colleges and universities — including those of the Ivy League — that pledge to consider applicants regardless of their ability to pay.
"It might be a little risky right now," Monica Inzer, the dean of admission and financial aid of Hamilton, said in an interview. "It's not always easy to do the right thing."
In rescinding a "need-aware" or "need-sensitive" admissions policy — previously some students were admitted partly because they required no financial aid, and others were rejected because they did — Hamilton expects over the next four years to add about $2 million to its annual financial aid budget, which is about $24.6 million this year.
Initially, that additional expense will be borne by six trustees, who have each pledged $500,000 to seed the need-blind effort. The first students to be admitted under the new policy will be this fall's freshman class. Soon, Ms. Inzer said, the college expects to embark on a capital campaign to raise $40 million as a permanent endowment for need-blind admissions.
Full tuition, room and board and other fees at Hamilton total nearly $50,000. The average financial aid award by the college is about $32,500, with about $28,500 in direct scholarships and the remainder in loans and work-study jobs.
With financial aid and other costs rising, several other colleges — including Reed in Oregon and Carleton in Minnesota — have acknowledged in the last year that some applicants' ability to pay is being factored into admissions decisions.
Asked how the policy worked previously at Hamilton, Ms. Inzer said that at a certain point late in the admissions process, she would "pull back the curtain" and ask her staff "how much would this class cost?" When the financial aid budget ran out, Ms. Inzer said, some students whom the admissions staff had deemed likely to be admitted would be cut, based on their financial circumstances, and others who were not seeking aid would be put in their place.
All of this, she said, took place before the students had been informed of the committee's decision. Last year, she said, 3 percent of the decisions were revised on the basis of need; two years ago, she said, the figure was 7 percent.
"In my mind," she said of the new policy, "this levels the playing field."

The first thing I do when I enter the office is starting up my computer, make myself a cuppa tea, a glass of water and turn on the room diffuser. I add a few drops of MUJI Essential Oils in Lime, Bergamot and Ylang Ylang to create my own little concoction. You literally just need the tiniest amount, so a bottle will last you a lifetime. Okay, probably not a lifetime if you use it daily, but it will definitely last you a while.
The scents are very uplifting and just brightens up my morning immediately. As it's quite citrus-y (I tend to go crazy with the Lime… just a bit) it just gives me an immediate wake-up boost. Also, I tend to add an extra few drops of Lime during the day, for a wake-me-up and to erase the stale smell in the office – if you get what I mean. Hooray for room diffusers!
What is the thing you do first to start-off your day?

At Phoenix Heart Center, we understand the concerns you may have when dealing with heart health and vascular issues. That's why we are fully committed to providing you with the personalized, one-on-one attention that you deserve. The interventional cardiology team takes the time to completely understand your concerns, accurately diagnose your issues and discuss all treatment options with you. Throughout your journey to a healthier you, trust that we will deliver expert and personalized service.
Heart Care
Heart disease is the leading cause of death for men and women in the U.S., yet it is often preventable and treatable. When dealing with medical matters of the heart, you need an experienced cardiologist who will take the time to understand your concerns, accurately diagnose your issues and provide high-quality treatments using the latest in cardiovascular advancements. Whether you have experienced chest pain, a heart attack or heart failure, or have been diagnosed with heart disease, high blood pressure or high cholesterol, you can count on the professional health care team at Phoenix Heart Center for exceptional treatment and support.
Vein Care
The Vascular Disease Foundation estimates that at least 20 – 25 million people in the U.S. have varicose veins — a condition in which blood flow through the leg's veins is impaired — causing swelling, skin discoloration and ulcers, pain, cramping and weakness. At the Phoenix Heart Center, our health care team has extensive experience in effectively evaluating and treating varicose veins (chronic venous insufficiency or venous reflux disease).
Radial First
Radial First is a cardiac catheterization procedure performed through the patient's radial artery, located on the wrist. St. Luke's Medical Center is the first hospital and one of only a few hospitals in the country to utilize the Radial First approach as the preferred method for all cardiac catheterization procedures.
The radial artery is located close to the surface of the skin resulting in less trauma to the body during insertion. Because the radial artery is smaller and located in the wrist, it responds quickly to simple pressure. This technique is proven to be safer and more comfortable for patients and has better long-term results than traditional methods. In addition, using the Radial First approach enables most patients to immediately get out of bed and move around following the procedures, which provides them great comfort and a faster recovery period. The physicians at the Phoenix Heart Center utilize this technique.
SL2 Program
The SL2 Program at St. Luke's Medical Center and Tempe St. Luke's Hospital is designed to significantly reduce the risk and need of limb amputations resulting from vascular disease.
Providers at the SL2 Program strive to create an environment where hospitalists, nurses and emergency room providers can interact and rely on the specialists at the SL2 Program to address the unique concerns of those at-risk of amputation. The collaborative goal: to significantly reduce the risk and need of amputations.
Phoenix Heart Center is a Nuclear Medicine Accredited facility through the American College of Radiology for the Phoenix and Mesa office locations.

|Musrooms In Green Sauce
|Palak-Mushroom (Mushrooms In Green Sauce)
This recipe is very close to my heart for two reasons
- It requires least efforts and oil
- It is very nutritious and yummy
Mushrooms are fleshy, fat free, gluten free, and cholesterol free, rich in nutrients and low in calories. So is true for spinach and coriander. Thus using Spinach and coriander to make sauce not only makes it rich in nutrients but also a visual treat.
Green gravy/sauce with mushrooms is feast to eyes. Simple roti (Indian flat bread), Parathas, Nan and Steamed rice all go well with it.

Ingredients Required For Making Mushroom In Green Sauce:
- Button Mushrooms: 100gm
- 100 gm Button Mushrooms
- 100 gm Spinach leafs (Stalks removed)
- 25 gm Coriander Leafs (Stalks removed)
- 2-3 Cloves of Garlic
- 1 Small Onion
- 10-15 gm Cream (Optional)
- 1 Teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 Teaspoon Cumin Seeds
- 2 Green chilies or to taste
- Salt to taste
Direction to Make Mushroom In Green sauce:
- Wash spinach and coriander leafs separately and drain.
- Wash mushrooms and remove any stalks which look discolored.
- Cut spinach.
- Boil 50 ml. water and when water starts boiling add spinach. Give a stir and switch off the heat. Cover water and spinach mixture and allow to cook in its own heat. Spinach should not lose its beautiful green color.
|Cooked Spinach
- Chop coriander leafs and keep aside.
|Chopped Coriander leafs
- Chop garlic to fine pieces and keep aside.
- Cut mushrooms to required size as per your liking. I prefer my mushrooms to be little thick pieces so if they are of small size then each is cut to 4 pieces, bigger ones are cut to 6 pieces.
- Cut onions and green chilies and saute then in 1/2 teaspoon oil till translucent
|Sauteed Onion and Green Chilies
- Blitz spinach with water and coriander leafs and green chilies-onion mixture in a grinder/ mixer to make a fine paste. The paste will be fragrant green color.
|Paste of Spinac, Coriander leafs, Onion and Green chilies
- In a wok take olive oil and heat.
- Add cumin seeds and when they start spluttering add finely chopped garlic. Cook on low heat till the garlic attains light brown color.
- Add Mushrooms and cook on low heat with costant stirring for 2 minutes.
|Mushroom with cumin Seeds and Garlic
- Add spinach and coriander leaf's paste. Stir and cook on low heat for about a minute not more.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes on low heat wtih rgular stirring.
|Mushrooms Ready for the Green Paste
|Green Paste added to Mushrooms
- Add salt and mix.
- Add 100 ml. water and mix.
- Bring neat to high and give one quick boil.
- Switch off the heat add cream and mix.
|Ready to be Served
|Palak Mushroom (Mushrooms In Green Sauce)
- Serve hot with Flat bread/rice/nan/paranthas.
- Stalks should be removed else the fibers from stalks will give unpleasant texture to sauce/gravy.
- Spinach should not be boiled else the green color will turn of darker shade and the gravy/sauce will not be of the beautiful green color.
- Mushrooms should not be cut too small or thin they should be thick enough to be juicy in sauce/gravy.
- Taste the chilies before grinding some are bland some super-hot.
- Too long cooking of mushrooms or gravy/sauce will cause mushrooms to lose their water and become rubbery and sauce to become of darker shade than we want in this recipe.
- Do not use red chilies as it will change the color and flavor of sauce.
Alternate Suggestions:
- Cream and water can be replaced by 100 ml. full cream/ low fat milk. If you are using milk then add it in the step where water is to be added, replacing water by milk. Using milk will reduce the fat content in the sauce.No water should be added when milk is being used.
- You can omit onions. If onions are being omitted then green chilies should be added raw to spinach and coriander for making pastee.
- For those who do not partake or are allergic to garlic it can be omitted.

We were blessed to be able to go back to the Seattle area for a week long mission trip. Last year we went to work with a church planter in Tacoma. It was such a great trip, this year our trip was made up of two teams and we included a church plant in the Everett area.
Our days were full of prayer walking, cook outs in local parks and apartment complexes and then kid's clubs at night. Wonderful and I were able to spend a few days at each site. It was neat to return to the Tacoma area and see kids we remembered from the previous year. They had grown so much. This "little bit" stole my heart, she referred to herself in the third person as in "Snow White doesn't play that game". So stinkin cute!
We also had people in the parks remember us from cooking lunch last year. A couple of people even remembered we were from Texas. It is so fun to see how quickly relationships can be built.
As great as it was to visit Tacoma, the most precious time of all was spent in Everett. You see last August when we visited, Paul and Amanda were on our mission team. This year Paul and Amanda were the church planters we worked with in Everett. They have a great blog here that shares their story. It is amazing the journey they have walked this last year and I hope it inspires you as much as it does me.

Quality dental care comes down to a few important things.
The first is knowledge, and the second is building relationships.
If you have either one of these but not the other, then your patients will suffer as a result. At Bayou Dental Group, we make both of these a priority as part of our family dentistry.
For families in and around Monroe, LA, we want to be the dentist office that you come to when you or your kids need oral health care.
We take pride in helping our patients feel comfortable, and we believe this is an important reason our patients continue to come back and see us.
Our Background
In any kind of dentistry, but especially family dentistry, you need to visit someone who understands how to provide dental care.
You can rest assured that is the case with our dentist, Dr. Finley.
Dr. Finley grew up in Monroe and is a proud product of the Monroe City School System. After graduating from Northeast Louisiana University, he earned his D.D.S. at Louisiana State University.
In the 30 years that he has been working as a dentistry, he also made continuing education a priority. He has hundreds of hours of continuing education so he can provide the best dentistry using the most modern techniques available.
He also attained a Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry and is an Accredited Fellow of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. Only 6 percent of American dentists have the general dentistry fellowship, and fewer than 30 dentists in the world have both fellowships.
The rest of our team has decades of experience in dental care, and every member of our staff enjoys working with people. We are particularly fond of helping kids.
What You Can Expect
From your first visit onward, you can expect us to be attentive to your needs and your worries.
We encourage parents to bring their children for their first visit within six months of the arrival of his or her first tooth. While we want to look at your child's teeth, this visit is mainly about building a trusting relationship with our staff.
We will show your child our dentist's chair and even let him or her sit in the chair. Because we want your child to be comfortable, we will not force him or her to do anything he or she is not ready for. If we aren't able to look at your child's teeth on this visit, that's OK. With time, he or she will open up and allow us to take a closer look.
We know that dental anxiety affects many people, and in many cases, that anxiety can stem from an incident in their youth. We want to do everything we can to help your child have a positive outlook on dental care and the dentist office.
Preventive Care
For older children and adults, we strive to provide and encourage preventive dental care. This is why we emphasize good oral care practices at home (brushing twice a day, flossing every day) and with routine visits to our office.
We like to see all of our patients twice a year for routine cleanings and examinations. Even if you brush and floss like you should, you may still develop plaque and tartar in a few places. During your cleaning, our dentist or hygienist will remove any of the plaque or tartar that you may have missed.
This will reduce your risk of developing tooth decay or gum disease.
You also can expect us to provide a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth. We will monitor for any changes in your teeth alignment, and we will watch for symptoms of oral health problems. If we see anything, we are more than ready to treat your problems as soon as we can.
We also provide two services that can keep your teeth healthier for a longer time.
The first is our fluoride treatments. Fluoride is a mineral that can help your teeth in two ways.
During the early stages of tooth decay, fluoride can actually stop the decay and reverse it. The second thing fluoride does is strengthen the enamel of your teeth.
The second service is dental sealants. These are applied to the molars (the flatter teeth in the back of your mouth). These are the teeth most likely to develop cavities. The sealants serve as a barrier that provides an added layer of protection against cavities for children or adults
Come See Us Soon
We are always happy to see regular patients and new ones stop by our dentist office in Monroe, LA.
If you are ready to make an appointment or you just want to know about how we operate at Bayou Dental Care, then contact us by stopping by our office, by calling us at [phone], or by filling out our online form.

Bill Forrest and I made this climb in early June. The west face route on Tucupit follows the prominent crack splitting the face of the buttress left of center. A more indefinite crack lies to its right. We approached via the north fork of Taylor Canyon and walked an hour and a half from the trailhead to the foot of the climb. There are eight sustained pitches of mostly free climbing, except for pitches 2 and 3, which are more aid than free. At the fourth pitch the climb eases and provides a variety of climbing through chimneys and over several interesting roofs. Friends are useful for protection and aid throughout the climb. A highly recommended route. NCCS V, F8, A2.

Lately I have been thinking a lot about the Wants and Needs in my life and every time my mind starts to wander to the "Wants" I think of the song "If I Had a Million Dollars" by the Bare Naked Ladies. This early 90's anthem of wanting "K-Cars, Chesterfields and Kraft Dinner" I thought why not create a running total of the things that I want and see if I can hit the spending limit of $1,000,000. It is important to note that this list will have a distinctly "tech geek" feel to it as I go shopping online for the things that there is no way this cheap bastard would ever get unless he had a spare Million laying around!
I have been walking everywhere for the past 6 months and while it has done wonders for my physical conditioning, it has caused a bit of a strain on my social endeavours…in fact, I kind of miss the people that while I would see them infrequently…now I don't see them at all so I become a bit of a home body and therefore I would head out and get me a car…or rather a truck…and with that I would trick it out with all the latest tech that I could find…and so here goes what I would get for wheels:
2014 Ford F-150 Raptor
If the 2015 model was available right now it would be that wonder of modern engineering but it is all about taking what is available right now and building what I can from the ground up. I headed off to the Ford.ca website and configured a fully loaded SVT Raptor…final price tag rings in at $79,403 with taxes and delivery…but while there are a tonne of options available from Ford (and trust me…I took them all (Front and Rear Cameras, Bed liner, Pop Up Cargo Hooks, even the rear Seat DVD setup), I would not be happy with just this…as nice as this beast looks:
Once delivered, I would customize this beast with a few extras:
The Addictive Desert Designs Rancher Front Bumper – $2,000
I have always been intrigued with the concept of setting up a computer in a vehicle that would be able to communicate and be easily updated as soon as I got home so I would then replace the factory radio with something that would be better suited in a world that was a cross between Mad Max, Max Headroom and Bladerunner so I would take to building my own "Vehicle Entertainment System" complete with a massive internal Storage Array and to start off with I would use the E3iO 2Din system that allows me to configure it with 1TB SSD, Windows 8.1 with Touchscreen, OBDLink Software (to monitor my new truck), 16 GB of RAM and a 3.2 Ghz Processor…all this goodness for $2700 (although I would probably experiment with the installation of Ubuntu on the truck for some very specific reasons):
There are probably a dozen other things that I would want to do to this truck before I even drove it for the first time…like a custom paint job (Do U Ubuntu???), a Lift Kit, CB Radio…all said and done…I would probably set a budget for further modifications about about $20,000 so all said and done, from my initial $1,000,000, after day one of toy shopping, I would be sitting at:
|$ 1,000,000.00
|$ 79,403.00
|$ 2,000.00
|$ 2,700.00
|$ 20,000.00
|$ 895,897.00
Next time…I look at my Home Theatre…and general Entertainment!

Without him, his team lost 31-17 at home. Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer (3) looks over the Green Bay Packers defense during an NFL football game, Sunday, Dec. 27, 2015, in Glendale, Ariz. (Jeff Haynes/AP Images for Panini) When asked, Palmer has refused to buy into the idea that a win over the Packers and subsequent deep playoff run could mean as much for him as it could for his team and franchise. No doubt he's aware of his standing, but his focus is where it has been all season, and that's on trying to win as many games as possible and get his team to Super Bowl 50."It would be awesome," he said of the possibility of winning Saturday. "Having a chance to play next week in Carolina or back here at home would be phenomenal. I am focused on this game and not the ramifications of it." Palmer's second playoff game was four years later, and on Jan. 9, 2010, he completed just 18-of-36 passes for 146 yards with one touchdown and one interception in a 24-14 home loss to the New York Jets.For a while it seemed as though that might be it for Palmer's postseason chances, as he languished with Cincinnati and then later the Oakland Raiders for a handful of seasons, most of which finished with losing records. His fortunes changed when he was traded to Arizona before the 2013 season, and after the Cardinals just missed a postseason berth in 2013, they seemed poise to not only make the playoffs but put together a deep run in 2014.Then Palmer tore his ACL and missed his team's 26-14 loss to the Carolina Panthers.Needless to say, it would be understandable if he is just a little bit pumped as he prepares for Saturday's Divisional Round matchup with the Green Bay Packers given how long it has been since he's competed in a playoff game."I don't really think much about the time or the gap in time," he said Tuesday. "I am excited about playing. I'm fired up and looking to pick up where we left off to see what areas we can improve on, what areas I can improve on. A victory Saturday would put the Cardinals one win — or 60 minutes of football — away from Super Bowl 50. It would be a momentous accomplishment for the franchise, which has only once before played in a conference championship game.Like most quarterbacks, the team's chances of advancing are largely dependent on how Palmer plays. That is as true now as it was six years ago in his last playoff game, and given how long it has taken to get back to the playoffs and his age, it is reasonable to assume the former No. 1 overall pick in the 2003 draft out of USC may feel some extra pressure to play well.Arians does not see it that way, though."The pressure is only something you feel if you're not prepared," he said. "I'm betting he's going to be really prepared, so I don't think he'll feel too much pressure."But besides the obvious things a win would do for the team and its prospects, it would also help to elevate Palmer's stature among the NFL's best passers. To wit: Of the eight starting quarterbacks remaining in the postseason, he is the only one without a playoff victory. And the seven other passers — New England's Tom Brady, Kansas City's Alex Smith, Pittsburgh's Ben Roethlisberger, Denver's Peyton Manning, Carolina's Cam Newton, Seattle's Russell Wilson and Green Bay's Aaron Rodgers — have combined for nine Super Bowl championships with only Newton and Smith failing to contribute at least one title to the total. "As far as time between the playoff games, that is not an issue in my eyes."Palmer heads into the playoffs playing arguably the best football of his career. The 36-year-old completed 63.7 percent of his passes for 4,671 yards and 35 touchdowns with just 11 interceptions. The yards and touchdowns were franchise records and career highs, and his presence is a big reason for why the Cardinals are viewed as a one of the best teams in the league."He's playing at an MVP level. We're not where we are without him, that's for sure," Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said. "He's obviously more than just a quarterback. He's the leader of the football team and our guys rally around him. He's a very calming player. Bad things happen, he goes to the next play better than anybody I've ever seen."If the Cardinals are to avoid being upset Saturday they will need their quarterback to be on his game, and Arians said it will be his job to make sure Palmer doesn't get too excited. Not that he sees it as much of a challenge."With his preparation, it'll just be the normal playoff nerves and excitement," the coach said. "You want the guys to feel that. You don't want them lull, you know what I mean? He's a pro. His kids will keep him grounded."

text: Do More Web & Search Beware of the 'Ammyy' Security Patch Phone Scam A new twist on an old scam Share Pin Email Print Dan Wilton / Getty Images Web & Search Safety & Privacy Best of the Web Search Engines Running a Website By Andy O'Donnell Writer Andy O'Donnell, MA, is a former freelance contributor to Lifewire and a senior security engineer who is active in internet and network security. our editorial process Andy O'Donnell Updated October 24, 2017 32 32 people found this article helpful There is a widespread scam on the rise in many English-speaking countries. It's been dubbed the "Ammyy Scam" by many due to a website that the scammers try to direct the victims to. The scam has been extremely successful and has duped many users into falling for it. The Basics of the Scam The victim usually receives a phone call from someone claiming to work as a security person for a large company such as Microsoft or Dell. The caller claims that there is a new security vulnerability that they have detected that is very dangerous and affects "100% of the computers in the world" or something to that effect. They also state that they are alerting users as a courtesy and that they will offer to walk the victim through the installation of a tool that will prevent the problem from affecting their computer. The scammer will then ask the victim to go to their computer and open up the event log viewer program and will ask them to read something back from it. No matter what the victim reads back to them, they will say that this information confirms that the new virus/vulnerability is present and that they must act immediately or the victim's data will be destroyed. They will also insist that no other virus scanner is able to detect the threat. The caller will then direct the victim to a website which is often ammyy.com, but may have been changed to something else since the scam has gotten some media attention. They will ask the victim to install the Ammy.exe file (or something similar) and ask for a code that the software generates. This code will allow them to remotely access the victim's computer. The Ammyy tool itself may be a legitimate tool for providing remote access to a computer for support purposes, but in the hands of these guys, it merely provides a backdoor into your system so they can take it over and install other malicious software and/or steal valuable personal data from your computer. After the scammers have confirmed that they can connect to the victim's computer (and take control of it so they can install their malware) they will claim that the problem is fixed. Some of the scammers might be even so bold as to sell victims a fake antivirus product (Scareware), that will further infect their computers. Yes, that's right, they ask the unsuspecting victim who just allowed them to infect their computer to shell out cash to further infect their computer. These people have no shame. Some victims opt to purchase fake antivirus software out of fear, and now the scammers have their credit card information as well as access to their computers. So What Do You Do If You Have Already Fallen for This Scam? Immediately isolate your computer and disinfect it with anti-malware software installed from a trusted source. Pull the Ethernet cable out of the computer's network port and shut down the wireless connection. This will prevent further damage to your computer and ensure that the scammer can't reconnect to the PC. Additionally, you should follow the steps in our I've Been Hacked, Now What? article. Contact your credit card companies and report it. Letting your credit card companies know what happened will allow them to issue a fraud alert for your account so they can be aware that fraudulent charges may be pending on your account(s) Remember that the Ammyy tool itself is just a gateway for the bad guys to get into your system. They could have victims install any number of other legitimate remote administration tools that would still allow them to accomplish their goals. Guidelines to Avoid Scams The key to avoiding scams like these is to remember some basic scam fighting guidelines: Microsoft and other major companies are likely not going to call you to help you fix a problem in this manner.Caller IDs can be easily spoofed with Voice Over IP software. Many scammers use phony caller ID information to help build their credibility. Google their phone number and look for other reports of scam reports coming from the same number.If you want to fight back, the best way is to report the scam to the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3).

Bliss Bites? This is for real…right? Yes it is and they are simply the best. Beyond the best depending what you're comparing them with. For a simple, healthy snack with no sugar added, and with or without gluten at your choice.
What's in it has to be the first question. Start with dates, add walnuts, whole almonds, almond butter, chocolate in the form of chips or any other form you desire. Add to that real Maple Syrup (from the tree and not with maple flavoring added with sugar or aspartame and caramel coloring), sea salt and real vanilla extract. For those with
no gluten intolerance add rolled oats.
Now, some recipes call to have the dates soaked in water overnight. Depending on the kind of dates that could be optional. Pitted dates are likely soft enough to not need soaking. Those used for this batch were soaked, but could just as likely have been fine otherwise. Those from Portugal are the best.
Use a food processor and start by chopping up the walnuts by themselves. Then add the dates until both are well mixed. Now add chocolate chips, chocolate discs, or pieces of your favorite chocolate bar and pulse enough to get all three items well combined.
At this point add maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla extract, sea salt, with rolled oats being optional. Process this until it is well mixed, smooth and thick. Be sure to scrape down the sides so that everything is blended.
At this point begin adding the whole almonds a little at a time until they are small chunks. When you are satisfied with the mixture, form it into golf ball sized pieces. A great tool for this is a medium size cookie scoop. Simply dip out all the mixture on waxed paper or parchment paper. When you have used all the dough then roll with your hands to make the round ball.
The last step is to roll the balls in shredded, desiccated or dry, coconut. You might choose to do half and half. You could even use sesame seeds, pumpkin seed, or any number of other coverings. However the coconut does make them look pretty appealing to the eye.
The good news is no sugar, and leaving out the rolled oats means no gluten. A fantastic snack you won't need to feel guilty about. No baking, just cleanup on the food processor. When you have all your Bliss Bites ready, they can be frozen or kept in the fridge. Chances are they may not last long enough to make the fridge.
Here's the ingredient list and instructions that can be copied and pasted. Have fun and enjoy!
- heaping ½ cup walnuts
- ½ cup pitted dates
- ¼ – ½ cup chocolate chips, depending on how sweet you like them (used a heaping ¼ cup of dark chocolate discs)
- scant ½ cup maple syrup
- ½ cup almond butter (homemade or good store bought quality)
- ½ tsp "real" vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- ½ cup whole almonds
- ¼ cup gluten-free oats (optional but we love it!)
- 1- 2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut for rolling
1. Place walnuts in food processor and mix for 30 seconds or until coarsely chopped.
2. Add in dates, and pulse until well mixed with the nuts.
3. Add the chocolate chips and pulse 5 times to break down a bit and combine with nuts and dates.
4. Add maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla extract, salt and oatmeal. Process until smooth, thick and well combined. You may have to scrape down the sides several times before mixture is well combined because it will be thick.
5. Stream almonds while mixing, and process about 1 minute or until they are in small chunks.
6. Form mixture into golf ball size balls with your hands. Your hands will feel "oily" as you do this because the oils have broken down from the nuts during processing, but that the bliss bites will not be oily.
7. Roll balls in coconut. (Note: you can also eat them without rolling in coconut).
8. Put in a sealed container and store in the fridge or freezer.
As an extra added note consider "activating" the nuts. That was strange to me the first time I heard it but what a difference it makes. Easy to do too.
Simply take both walnuts and almonds, although separately, and put in filtered water overnight. Rise with filtered water after draining the next day. Use some paper towel to pat dry and then either dry in the oven at 110-120º for about 90 minutes. Or use a dehydrator at 125-135º fro several hours until crispy. You'll be amazed at the difference in taste.
There you have it. So have at it and be blissful biting.

Your children's financial future and unplanned changes
See this page in: English
When you experience a family transition like divorce or separation, you will most likely experience some sort of financial changes. If you were married or in a committed partnership, you will need to figure out how to split assets and debt. Everyone needs to figure out their own financial survival plan after a family transition.
While budgeting month to month is very important, you will also need to think about the future costs of raising your children. Here are some financial questions that will help you begin to think about life events and unplanned changes that may affect you and your children's financial future.
- How can you make sure that you'll be financially independent after your divorce, so you can meet the needs of your children?
- Child support is one source of income for your children. What will you do if the other parent can't pay child support due to losing a job?
- What happens if the other parent dies? Do you and the other parent have life insurance in place to help support the children? Do you understand Social Security survivor's insurance?
- What happens if either parent has a disability and can't work? Do you have disability insurance?
- Do you know where to find other income and support for food, heating, etc. if needed?
- Who should claim the dependent child exemption?
- Will both parents take on financial responsibilities after a child is 18 years old and no longer in high school? Which parent fills out the FAFSA form for your children when they attend college? Will both parents provide financial support for higher education?
All families have situations when income is reduced because:
- a parent leaves work early
- comes to work late
- leaves work to go to school or care for children.
Are you prepared for these situations financially? In one-parent households these costs are often harder to manage.
Think of other unplanned changes that could affect you and your children's financial future. The more you can try to work with your children's other parent to plan for the potential changes, the better you will be prepared should those changes actually occur.

Children are born with a sense of wonder and an affinity for Nature. Properly cultivated, these values can mature into ecological literacy, and eventually into sustainable patterns of living
Whats missing?
Today, children's lives seem to be structured much differently, a world where the phrase "Go play outside" has been replaced by television programs, computer time, and Wii Fit.
Modern humans lived in nature for most of their long history. Even once colonization into cities occurred, people were surrounded by nature in the fields and farms where they lived.And until thirty or so years ago, children still spent the bulk majority of their free time in contact with nature. Urbanization brought about parks and playgrounds to play in; fields, forests, and empty lots to explore; and even in nearby backyards. Children freely played, explored, and interacted with nature without restriction.
Today's world is much different. Children no longer freely explore the world around them, and many have extremely limited contact with nature at all. Fear for safety, structured lessons and activities, and electronics are some of the main inhibitors to natural discovery that involve children today. Spontaneous interaction with nature is most often limited, at best.
Free play in nature
Free play in nature encourages children to create games with their own invented rules, conduct experiments with nature, and learn lessons that aren't "taught" by anyone. These types of "no rules" situations promote inventive play and give children a deeper understanding of nature.
While playground equipment is a perk of modern urbanization, its uses are more finite than those nature provides. Although equipment can be open-ended, imagined as a castle one day and a boat the next, nature is ever changing. Crossing a stream one day might become searching for treasures under river stones another day as the stream dries up. Tactile outdoor experiences teach children differently than a lesson or even reading about a subject can.
Besides the educational benefits, connecting with nature has more benefits than might be obvious. Research shows that children who are allowed to explore outdoors are socially and emotionally happier and healthier. Unstructured outdoor play is also touted as one of the most direct ways to combat childhood obesity, a very real and prominent problem for children. Vitamin D exposure from the sun is known to help prevent a host of diseases, as well as treat and prevent depression.
Outdoor play gives children the opportunity to value nature, and see it as an important part of of our world. This is a tangible way to ensure that we help them developing environmental stewards who will be both appreciative and respectful of nature as they grow.

Kenzo's Fall 2013 Campaign.
Totally trippy, right?
I love it when brands take their marketing to a whole other level. For Kenzo, it's a totally fresh way to market themselves, and the surreal nature of the photographs makes them almost creepy. The photos don't fit together in any way but their obscurity. I'm so excited to see the whole collection! Memorable things are things I want to buy.
Tonight, I am speaking at my local Rotary Club about my experiences of living in South Korea!
I'm totally excited to wear my Hanbok again, and speak to a new group of people about the experiences that changed my life so greatly.
Look for updates.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — The unattended ground sensors market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.71% from 2017 to 2022
Read the full report: https://www.reportlinker.com/p05253734
The unattended ground sensors market is projected to grow from USD 363.8 million in 2017 to USD 457.9 million by 2022, at a CAGR of 4.71% from 2017 to 2022. The changing nature of warfare and rise in the terrorism, geopolitical issues, and insurgencies across countries in the world are key factors driving the growth of the unattended ground sensors market. However, operational issues such as false alarms and power management are projected to hinder the market growth. In addition, susceptibility of sensor networks to cyber-attacks acts as a key challenge to the growth of the market. On the other hand, factors such as the need for enhanced situational awareness, advances in Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and wireless sensor networks, and rise in incidences of border trespassing coupled with the upgrade of the existing border security infrastructure offer key growth opportunities to manufacturers of unattended ground sensors
The infrared segment is expected to grow at a high rate from 2017 to 2022
Infrared sensors are designed to alert users regarding an intruder's presence through transmission of an infrared light beam across the zone. An infrared sensor measures the heat being emitted as well as notices the motion of the object. It also detects the electromagnetic radiated energy generated by sources that produce temperatures below that of visible light. These sensors basically measure the change in thermal radiation. The image obtained through these sensors is vital in identifying the significance of threat in military as well as commercial applications and so these are currently widely adopted. Hence, the infrared segment is expected to grow at a high rate during the forecast period.
Security is estimated to lead the unattended ground sensors market
The security segment covers both the military as well as the public security. The unattended ground sensors were initially used in military sector and later was adopted in the critical infrastructure sector. Owing to the increasing instances of border trespassing in regions such as North America and Asia Pacific, the security segment is estimated to lead the unattended ground sensors market.
North America is the largest market for unattended ground sensors
North America is currently the largest market for unattended ground sensors, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. The growth in North America is primarily driven by the US and Canada. The major application areas of unattended ground sensors in the US is border protection. Both, the US and Canada are technologically superior countries, with a huge potential to invest in UGS sensors, wireless sensor network, and related equipment, which, in turn, will drive the unattended ground sensors market in the North American region.
