Misfortune - Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay
The day a lightning struck my home in September 2010
I read in it signs of bad time grave misfortune's ill omen
Early morn it fell the night though didn't hint of a bad weather
Jolting us further a bereaved family my father had died that year.
Spitting fire it chipped a chunk of attic struck dead an arecanut tree
Blew the TV dead lights and fans fled it vented such awesome energy
What had we done to deserve such a deal why befell us the curse
Redoing the roof replacing dead wares it was taxing on our purse.
They say it's too bad when god goes as mad as to strike your home with lightning
You must have sinned to incur his wrath more misfortune it probably would bring
So we brought a priest for peace and worship we had to appease the deity
In our quest to strike a deal with god's will was forgotten the arecanut tree.
The house was mended things returned to shape we brokered a peace with god
It all looked fine the mishap forgotten no calamity struck our abode
As a relic of that time stands the arecanut tree without a leaf on its head
Mutely it bears the brunt of god's fury so is the way it is made.
One autumn morn there was a tapping sound on that tree's hollowed dead bark
As I peeped through the window I saw a woodpecker its beak was busy at work
So many times I had thought to cut off the tree for it could never grow its root
The bird has got a nest for little ones' rest god's will has borne a sweet fruit.

WARNING: This article contains spoilers from Season 6, Episode 9 of Game of Thrones, titled "Battle of the Bastards." If you haven't caught up yet, then turn back now and return when your watch has ended.
It was arguably the most anticipated battle in Game of Thrones history, and on this week's episode we finally saw Jon Snow take on the villainous Ramsay Bolton. What a spectacle it was — very much worth the hype and anticipation. If you've finally managed to lift your jaw from the floor, then let's take a look back at six epic moments from "Battle of the Bastards."
Because this week's episode was so eventful and spectacular, I've decided to list the moments in order of their awesomeness.
6. The Death Of Ramsay Bolton
Has there ever been a more satisfying moment than this? Probably not. Lord Bolton finally got his comeuppance — revenge for all the heinous acts he'd committed — and it was rather rewarding to watch, even for a guy who's not that fond of gore.
Ramsay found himself imprisoned in his dog kennel and the loyal pets he'd earlier admitted to not feeding for seven days began attacking and ravenously eating their master. Sansa watched the act unfold before strutting off, the hint of a smile evident on her face. In this moment, Sansa got her justice.
5. The Starks Take Back Winterfell
It was a bone-chilling fight, but one of the greatest moments was watching the Starks take back their ancestral home Winterfell. The Bolton banners fell to the ground and we saw the return of the Stark banners, highlighting that Winterfell was back in the hands of its rightful owners.
Sansa and Jon look on, realizing they'd succeeded in their mission. But to quote the Buffy musical — where do we go from here? What's next for the Starks and their family home? Will the finale see Arya return?
4. Littlefinger Saves The Day
Anybody else close to tears when Sansa and Littlefinger showed up with an army? Yeah, me too. House Arryn arrived just in time to save Jon and the Free Folk from impending death. It was in this moment that Ramsay knew that he'd messed up, that he'd lost control.
Sansa proved herself right here; Jon had been underestimating Ramsay, but Sansa knew his true nature. If it weren't for Sansa, Jon would be dead.
3. Daenerys Has Her Ships
It may have been an important episode for the Starks, but it was equally as important for Daenerys Targaryen, who now has everything that she needs to make it to Westeros. In a rather awesome scene, Yara and Theon arrived in Meereen and had an audience with Dany. With the ships that Dany took from the Masters and the offerings of more from Yara and Theon, Dany has enough ships to take her khalasar and the Unsullied to Westeros.
The Greyjoys promised to support her claim to the Iron Throne, provided she helps them take back the Iron Islands. Moreover, Yara and Theon agreed to drop their people's immoral ways. Was it just me, or did anybody else sense the sexual tension between Dany and Yara? Yo, that was definitely not my imagination. I'm getting serious vibes from those two.
2. The Battle Of The Bastards
With all the hype and build up, we expected the battle to be epic. However, it exceeded our expectations. Beautifully choreographed and horrifyingly gory, the Battle of the Bastards was everything that one could've hoped for.
We knew it was going to be the biggest battle in the show's history and it didn't disappoint. For being such an anticipated moment, Thrones did not let us down. There were several moments that we thought Jon wouldn't make it — yet he did. Jon Snow proved to the world that he knows something and fought his way to victory.
1. Daenerys Takes Control
For an episode that was billed to be about nothing else but the Battle of the Bastards, Daenerys stole the show. In arguably the best moment of the entire season, Dany and Tyrion concocted a plan to take back control of Meereen. In one of the most spectacular things I have ever witnessed, Dany stood up to the Masters and rode off on Drogon. At the same time, Viserion and Rhagal broke free and all three dragons were reunited. Dany led the dragons into war and in a goosebumps-inducing moment, uttered that terrifying word: Dracarys.
Drogon laid waste to many of the attackers and ultimately saved Meereen. In this moment, Dany showcased her fearlessness by heading straight into battle and taking what is hers. Westeros had better prepare — the Mother of Dragons has proved that she has what it takes to rule.
In my estimation, that was the greatest episode of Game of Thrones thus far. In fact, it was so incredible that it's going to be difficult for next week's season finale to top it. However, Thrones has proven in the past that it can pull off an incredible finale, even after it's usual bloodbath ninth episode. Prepare for anything as we head into the finale. The stakes are high and the game is on!

How to Benefit From Our Global Trash Problem With An ETF
Rubbish, trash, garbage, waste, whatever you call it, we all generate it, and it is taking over the world's space and mother nature's abundance faster than imaginable. If we continue to be a disposable society, there's at least one exchange traded fund (ETF) that could benefit. Although waste is universal, the concept of it is ignored and poorly understood. Nobody really knows how much is produced or what happens to it once it's created. The Economist explains that both developed and emering countries generate vast quantities of construction and demolition debris, industrial effluent, mine tailings, sewage residue and agricultural waste. Waste is harmful. It stinks, it's ugly, attracts vermin and releases harmful chemicals and and debris into soil and water when it is dumped. It is the source of almost 4% of the world's greenhouse gases, mostly in the form of methane from rotting food, which does not take into account the methane from animal and farm waste. There is so much waste out there, in fact, that in a deserted stretch of the Pacific Ocean void of shipping lanes, islands and human life, miles and miles of trash has accumulated, drawn there by converging currents.

Former Interior Secretaries Grilled On Capitol Hill
Bush-era Interior Secretaries Gale Norton and Dirk Kempthorne appeared before Congress on Tuesday, defending the Bush administration against Democrats' charges that its policies led to the Deepwater Horizon blowout three months ago.
RENEE MONTAGNE, host:
Here in Washington, there was more partisan finger-pointing as the current and two former Interior secretaries testified before a House panel.
NPR's Brian Naylor has our report.
BRIAN NAYLOR: In the eyes of Democrats, the seeds for the Deepwater Horizon blowout were planted two weeks after President George W. Bush took office. That's when Vice President Cheney was asked to chair an energy taskforce. House Energy and Commerce Committee Democrats say President Bush then issued an executive order to, quote, "expedite projects that will increase the production of energy."
The result, according to a committee memorandum: regulatory corners were cut. For instance, the Interior Department's Minerals Management Service ignored warnings that it should require offshore wells use multiple blowout preventers to prevent the type of accident that occurred at the Macondo well last April 20th. It led to this heated exchange between Massachusetts Democrat Edward Markey and Gale Norton, who was the Bush administration's first Interior secretary.
Representative EDWARD MARKEY (Democrat, Massachusetts): Madam Secretary, there was a deregulatory ticking time bomb that was set while you were secretary that has now exploded in terms of this blowout preventer and other devices not having been properly regulated. Do you believe, in retrospect, it was a mistake to create those exemptions?
Ms. GALE NORTON (Former Secretary of the Interior; Counsel, Dutch Royal Shell): I haven't seen anything that would indicate that there is a cause-and-effect relationship between the Deepwater Horizon decisions that were made by BP and what this analysis is that you're talking about.
NAYLOR: Norton, who is now counsel for the Dutch Royal Shell oil company, said up until three months ago, offshore drilling regulations were based on what she called a past history of success.
Ms. NORTON: Since 1980, the largest spill from a blowout in federal waters was only 800 barrels. All of the plans under both the Republican and Democratic administrations were adopted against this backdrop of safety.
NAYLOR: And to some extent, Democrats agreed. Committee Chairman Henry Waxman of California.
Representative HENRY WAXMAN (Democrat, California; Chairman, House Energy and Commerce Committee): The Department of Interior under both President Bush and President Obama made serious mistakes. The cop on the beat was off duty for nearly a decade, and this gave rise to a dangerous culture of permissiveness.
NAYLOR: For his part, former Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne, who succeeded Norton, said the Bush administration raised the royalty rate the government charged oil companies, increasing the amount of money the government collected by 50 percent.
Mr. DIRK KEMPTHORNE (Former Secretary of the Interior): While I was secretary of the Interior, not once, but twice increased royalty rates that companies paid for energy produced from deepwater offshore leases.
NAYLOR: Republicans criticized the Obama administration for the six-month moratorium the administration has now imposed on deepwater drilling in the Gulf. They pointed to reports that some drilling companies were already pulling their rigs and moving them to other countries. Former Secretary Norton used an aircraft analogy.
Ms. NORTON: You don't ground all of the airplanes because there was one problem. The important thing is to address the issues, not send the drilling rigs overseas where they may not return for many years and not send the jobs to other countries.
NAYLOR: Later in the day, current Interior Secretary Ken Salazar defended the moratorium, calling it a pause he said would remain in place until he was convinced drilling could proceed safely. He admitted, though, the MMS - which is becoming the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management - was still relying on the oil companies themselves to inspect their rigs.
Secretary KEN SALAZAR (Department of the Interior): And that's part of the change that I believe needs to be made, that it ought not to be a circumstance where, essentially, an inspector is taking the word of the company relative to the adequacy of a blowout preventer.
NAYLOR: Salazar said he's seeking to increase the number of offshore oil rig inspectors - now about 60 - to more than 400. But it would take several years and money that he and Congressional appropriators are still trying to find.

Palace near to Fonte deal
By Mark Buckingham
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Peter Taylor is confident Crystal Palace are on the verge of signing Jose Fonte.Peter Taylor is confident Crystal Palace are on the verge of signing Benfica defender Jose Fonte.
The centre-half is due to join the Championship club on a season-long loan, with the option of a permanent deal next summer.
Fonte, whose brother Rui is part of Arsenal's youth setup, has arrived in England to finalise his move to Selhurst Park.
And Palace boss Taylor is confident the 22-year-old is capable of making a major impact in his team in the coming season.
"After some really positive news I'm very hopeful that we've now tied up the Fonte deal," Taylor told the Croydon Advertiser.
"We're confident everything's been agreed and he'll be flying over for a chat and a medical.
"I'm very excited about this young boy because I think he's a good centre-half and a good footballer, so I'm looking forward to working with him.
"We've hopefully got him for 12 months, with a small loan fee payable to Benfica. Then there'll be a bigger fee to pay after a year, if he likes us and we like him, so we've got the option of making it permanent.
"It's been hard work at times and there were lots of other clubs interested in the boy.
"But because his brother plays for Arsenal he was keen to come to London, so we were fortunate in that respect."

Brace yourselves. This is another cheesy post. 😛 I just realised that while I had quite huge expectations for relationships before – the romantic dates, travels and what not – being with my love made me appreciate the little things as much as the big ones. In fact, I enjoy the every day things we do together more than the flashy dates.

Dear Red Hot Chili Peppers,
Greetings from a fan! Before I start, let me thank you for the richly-textured, impossibly alive soundtrack you provided for my adolescence through my young adulthood. I haven't been with you quite since the beginning – you, as a band, have existed longer than me, as a person – but I've been eagerly buying your records since I can remember. I love them – cherish them, even. You've soundtracked parties for me, long drives through the countryside, hushed listens to BloodSugarSexMagik spent learning where all the bad words were so I could turn down my stereo at just the right time. I even remember driving to a friend's funeral with "Dosed" playing, and sure, you weren't singing about that, but it felt like it.
And hey, Peppers, I think you've been doing a terrific job all this time. "Too mainstream!", the fratty punk-funkers protested when you released Californication. "Great songs!", said I, because I realize that sometimes it's time for artists to mature a bit, to explore styles. There're tons of facets of pop music, after all, and you've touched upon most of 'em in your career: punk, funk, hip-hop, alt-rock, acoustic ballads, campfire singalongs, summery Beach Boys homages, even ska. You've channeled the greats while forging a sound all your own, and I respect that. Kinda love it, in fact. So allow me, guys, to articulate to you why – and it hurts to say this to you guys specifically – your new record, I'm With You, leaves me cold.
But first, let's talk about what's good. First and foremost, you guys are unimpeachable as musicians. Flea, Chad Smith – you've got the tightest rhythm section in rock, bar none. You've held a monopoly on that, in fact, ever since you've been playing together. Anthony Keidis – I like your vocals a lot. You're a good vocalist without being showy, I think – your singing doesn't scream "technical mastery", but it's not amateurish. You've got a strong baritone and I've always appreciated your phrasing, the way you sing stuff. And Josh Klinghoffer, I'll be real with you: I balked at the prospect of RHCP going John Frusciante-less again, but I'm sold, man. You've got an individual style that nevertheless doesn't stray too far from what John did – you're a little bit funkier, a little more prone to finding the groove, where John seemed preoccupied with beauty and creating pretty guitar lines, but I think your styles aren't so wildly different that your playing is jarring. And, just like John, you bring the vocal harmonies, something I've come to hold very dear to my heart since Californication.
So why doesn't this all gel into a pleasant listening experience? Well, quite frankly, guys, this seems like Chili Peppers by numbers to me. The skill's all in place – you guys remain meticulous about keeping every note in place, and about tightening the screws more and more with each album – but it never adds up to anything. Anthony, quite frankly, I never know what you're singing about here. And, honestly, I only did about half of the time before – but, even when I didn't, I felt like I did, because the music sold it. The restless experimentation isn't here; there's nothing here I haven't heard on other RHCP records. There's no sense of wonder, of discovery. I've been listening to it over and over, in fact, and I still can't pick out individual songs. Oh, sure, there's "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie," which I can pick out when it's on, but I can never quite remember the melody. And you guys flirt with being funky again on "Ethiopia," but it doesn't so much groove as it does limp to the finish, although it starts out very promising. Really, the only thing that I think comes close to capturing your restless spirit is "Goodbye Hooray" – the chorus sticks in the craw, Chad and Flea are really allowed to do their thing (there's some nasty bass in there, man – cheers to that), and there's even an ethereal Floyd-y bridge, something that doesn't seem like familiar, rote territory for you. Great job on that tune, guys, and I'll even give you points for the following track, "Happiness Loves Company" – that peppy, staccato piano sounds like a great fit for you guys, and I love the vocal harmonies and its Beatles-by-way-of-Ben-Folds spirit.
See, I still appreciate what you guys do. There are great songs nestled deep in this album; the problem is, it sounds like your inspiration is only sporadic. I noticed it a bit on Stadium Arcadium, but wrote it off as the curse of the double album. I'm With You is a different beast entirely, though – it's a parade of humdrum midtempo rockers, the sort of modern-rock mediocrity that you guys always used to give a hearty shot in the arm every few years. With the exception of a handful of bright spots, much of I'm With You seems to blend in with the crowd. And, coming from a band that I always thought was so singular, that's kinda sad.
I still hold out hope, though. You guys are legends, after all – you've made more awesome records than most bands I dig, and besides, you're way too visionary to churn out mediocrity. I'll write this one off as a misstep, Chili Peps, but you gotta come harder next time. In conclusion: I'm with you, Peppers. But you're making it hard to be.
Grade: C-

Sean Dague, who works on OpenStack, has a nice post on Emacs Python tools he uses to deal with the large Python code base of the project. If you work in Python, you'll want to take a look at his post. You may pick up some useful ideas.
If you're familiar with
cscope, you will probably be interested in PyCscope, a project that parses your code's Python AST to build a
cscope index. The project's
README says that using the Python AST gives a much more accurate index than using
cscope alone.
He also mentions
fly-hack a backend for
flymake that extends
flake8 with some additional rules. Again, if you're writing in Python, you may get some ideas.
Dague discusses other tools as well so you should definitely give his post a read.

Let's call it Fappening VI. The leak consists of:
- Nov 7. There are several more nudes of Janelle Ginestra, including explicit shots, close-ups, etc.
- Nov 4. There is a full gallery of 500 images from Terry Richardson's collection: naked Terry, naked celebs, naked non-celebs, naked men, naked women, clothed celebs, clothed random people. You name it, it's there. You can track it down through Reddit.
- Nov 3. There are about a dozen "topless" selfies of model Hannah Davis, mostly of the "arms over boobs" variety, but one with clear nipple action.

We knew this was going to happen.
I believe that I have mentioned briefly here over the years that Bill's youngest sister (not to be confused with his closest sister, Karen, with whom we went to Wyoming) has lead a poisonous life. She has lied, manipulated, stolen, committed fraud, abused drugs and alcohol, abused and neglected her children, and physically assaulted just about every member of the family. All of her children have, at one time or another, been taken away from her. She's been arrested, fined, counseled, treated, released, hospitalized, arrested again, treated some more, fined some MORE, and is still living the lifestyle that is going to contribute to her inevitable destruction. She has humiliated – absolutely HUMILIATED – her family time and time and time again. For much longer than I have even known Bill (OH the stories).
She is, in short, an unsavory person.
The person she has negatively impacted the most is their mother. And yet their mother continues to enable, continues to excuse, and continues to justify every BLESSED thing her youngest child has done. "Oh, she's sick," she'll say. Or, "She needs to be forgiven." Or my personal favorite, "This time she's really trying." This person has been given more "helping hands" than I can count. Financial bail-outs, free places to live, vehicles… more money that we will ever know from various relations near and far, and from every one of us. Every opportunity that she's been given, and every helping hand that had she used it correctly, would have changed her life for the better, has been completely wasted. More drugs, more alcohol, more poor decisions, more questionable associations. More abuse, more drama, more playing the victim, and more expectations that she continue to be given more and more and more.
When their father passed away, Bill took on the unpleasant duty of being in charge of finalizing everything. All the court documents, phone calls, arrangements, filings, research… ALL OF IT. The size of their dad's estate is negligible. Yet Bill wants to make sure he does everything right, especially considering that their dad was a victim of fraud while he was serving his prison sentence, and had thousands and thousands of dollars stolen from him. So, he wants to protect what is left. And protect it from anyone, up to and (especially) including his youngest daughter.
We know this woman's motivations. We know her behavior patterns. We know that she schemes. Hell, even their own FATHER, who himself had a history of bad behavior (hello, prison), wrote her off as a bad situation. So when she contacted Bill for a copy of the death certificate, Bill said that whatever she needed to file he would take care of FOR HER. She wants to receive a benefit from the State that pays for one month of rent in the event of a parent's death. Sure, Bill says, no problem. Meet me wherever this State office is at any time of your choosing, and we'll take care of it together. But he wasn't going to fax this death certificate, which has a LOT of personal information, to some random fax number that she provided.
As you can guess, she went off the deep end over it. "Oh, so you're in charge, huh? You and your bitch wife (oh. Oh. OH.) and your lackey Karen. What gives you the right?" Hmm. Well, oldest son – check. Emergency point of contact – check. Drove thousands of miles, spent personal money, and cleaned out the Motorized Den of Iniquity. Check, check, check. Spoke with lawyers, county clerks, bank managers, and morticians. Checkety check check. Has a life-long history of responsible behavior – financial, moral, ethical, and societal. CHECK.
My theory? If she didn't intend to use the information (which I know is public record, but they would have a RECORD of who asked for the certificate if she applied for it herself, thereby creating a trail back to her) for ill conceived purposes, why on earth would she have a problem with Bill taking care of the arrangements for her rent FOR HER?
He's being careful. She's being batshit crazy. AND THEN THEIR MOTHER GETS IN THE MIDDLE OF IT ALL. Passive-aggressively, I might add, by telling the following crap to anyone BUT Bill so that he had to call her, and call her out on it, once he heard about it.
Oh, obviously Bill and Karen are hiding something (and my nefarious influence isn't helping either). Clearly there is more money to be had in their dad's estate and we're all going to steal it and not give their sister her fair share. We're evil and cold-hearted (and if I had a dime for every time she repeated that to either Bill or Karen…), and while SHE isn't judging us (OH, NOOOO), we WILL be judged. Their sister is down on her luck. She needs to be helped. "God knows she could use the money. You KNOW he has accounts everywhere." (WHAT money? WHAT accounts?) "Having her rent paid for one month is probably the same for her as it is for Bill and Tiffany to have their mortgage paid for six months." (HUH?) "It's just wrong of you not to include her in any of this." UM. OKAY. How is she equipped to "help"? What arrangements can she make? Which details can she take care of? She's an UNREPENTANT FELON. And did I mention batshit crazy? She hasn't been able to successfully manage ANY ASPECT of her own life, why on EARTH would anyone want her to handle anything as delicate (and complicated) as settling an estate?
Their mother is CONSTANTLY defending their youngest sister, while simultaneously attributing the worst possible qualities, intentions, and motivations to Bill and Karen. Who have NEVER done anything to hurt their mother, have NEVER asked for money or help in any way, and have NEVER brought drama to her doorstep.
I am so pissed off right now that I had half a mind to call Bill's mom and tell her the hell off. I have kept my mouth shut FOR YEARS and let Bill handle the relationship with his mother. But when she gets down on him for trying to do the right thing? When she says WE'RE the evil ones while she enables and defends a child-abusing drug addict? OH HELL NO.
Fortunately, Bill already said a lot of this stuff to her. So, it's not passive-aggressive of me to blog about it. I didn't get to vent to HER, so now I vent to YOU. I very rarely air laundry on this site, but this time I don't care. I have reached the end of my tolerance and I don't care who knows. I expected the reaction that we got from their youngest sister, but their mom KNOWS her daughter's history. She KNOWS her motivations. And yet WE'RE evil. Hell, even if there were a monster-sized inheritance coming her way, it would probably be the death of her. She'd drink and drug it all away until she OD'ed.
Oh hell, I don't even know why I'm surprised, or even angry. As much as I knew how their sister would react, I suspected this would be the case with their mom too. This kind of thing has been going on for YEARS. Oh. OH. AND she said we shouldn't pay the funeral home. Because, and I quote, "What the hell are they going to be able to do about it?" YEAH. NICE. Real Christian of ya. Tell us we should forgive, but cheat the very lovely people who handled their dad's mortal remains. Gee, I wonder where the crazy come from?
It's no wonder Bill had no idea that family could be anything other than negative.
GOD I'm pissed.
So. Pray for our immortal souls, will you? Because apparently we're going straight to hell.

Really cleanly designed and executed website. I love the red and the background patterns/imagery is really cool looking. The different header images have a nice look to them as well.
At the risk of being a design snob…this is a bit '2007' and behind trend, but in that sense at least its style that is 'unmatched'… now where's my Shell-Suit and bumbag?
Oh Jim you snob you! To hell with trends, if it looks good it looks good right? All seriousness, it is a bit behind 'trend' I agree there.
What does 'Shell-suit and bumbag' mean?
Aside from whether this is outdated or not, the graphics really have no purpose. The juxtaposition of butterflies and race cars is confusing and makes me wonder what this site is even about.

I Heart You!
I made these especially for you today. Just to say thank-you for being a loyal follower. Thank-you for your encouragement. Thank-you for sharing your excitement, your recipes, and your love with me. I heart each of you. For Reals. xoxo
Best Brownies (adapted from Food that Really Schmecks)
1/2 cup soft butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup cocoa (use "ruddy red", find it at the bulk barn. Yes, it makes a big difference)
1/2 cup flour with a pinch of salt.
Cream the butter and sugar. Add the egg and beat until fluffy. Mix in cocoa, then flour. Bake at 350 degrees in a greased 9×9 square pan, 20-23 minutes. (they will be soft and seem not finished–but don't worry, that is exactly how they are supposed to be!). Cut into squares (or hearts 😉 when cool.

Eric Trump Expecting First Child With Wife Lara
Eric Trump and his wife Lara Trump are expecting their first child, a boy due to be born this September.
The businessman, who's the third oldest child of President Donald Trump, met his wife in 2008 while she was working as an associate producer on the news program "Inside Edition." The two became engaged in 2013, and wed at his dad's Mar-a-Go Club in Palm Beach, Florida the following year. Lara, who's currently in her second trimester, is an avid equestrian and involved in various animal charities. Eric broke the news of his wife's pregnancy to People, noting, "We found out on my birthday, which was pretty cool."
Eric and his wife's baby will be the president's ninth grandchild, with oldest son Don Jr. and his wife Vanessa having five children, while oldest daughter Ivanka shares three kids with husband Jared Kushner. Eric joined the Trump Organization in 2006, and is currently an executive vice president of development and acquisitions. He previously appeared as a boardroom judge on his father's reality show, "The Celebrity Apprentice."
In 2006, Eric established the Eric Trump Foundation, an organization aimed to raise money for sick kids at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Shortly following the announcement of the exciting news, President Trump tweeted, "Congratulations Eric & Lara. Very proud and happy for the two of you!"

Remember that time I made homemade tzatziki dip? (here) Well I first whipped together this delicious dip to put on top of my flavorful Greek turkey burgers We had some left over ground turkey and I was clueless on what to make. I looked in the fridge- we had cucumbers, red onion, feta.. hmm. Totally screams Greek. I chopped up some red onions, garlic and spinach and added egg and crumbled feta (+ some other stuff you can see below in the recipe) and mixed it by hand into the ground turkey.
I ended up searing them on the stove top first and then finishing them off in the oven- just because they were pretty thick. These would be great on the grill as well!
I made a few without feta to make it a bit more healthier for the Hubs. I also decided to go bun-less. He had one later with the feta and said it really made the burger and continued to eat them throughout the week! Check out the easy recipe below:
Flavorful Greek Turkey Burgers
- 2 LB Ground Turkey
- 1/4 C Red Onions Chopped + some for garnish
- 1/2 C Spinach Chopped
- 2 Cloves Garlic Minced
- 1/2 C Feta Cheese Crumbled
- 1 Large Egg
- 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 Tbsp Dried Oregano
- 1 Tsp Salt
- 1 Tsp Pepper
- 1/2 Cucumber Sliced for Garnish
Mix all the onion, spinach and cheese with the turkey in a large bowl until well combined.
In a second bowl, add the egg and whisk. Add the olive oil, spices and garlic and mix
Pour mixture over turkey and mix with hands to make sure well combined
Form into 6 burgers patties
Cook on the grill or heat a skillet and cook for 6 minutes on each side until cooked through.
If the burgers are too thick heat in over at 350 degrees for 10 minutes
Top with sliced cucumber, red onions and homemade Tzatziki

(Coming soon! A new Sydney with larger size range and many options!)
Introducing the Sydney Pinafore. I am originally from Australia and it was very common to see little girls running around in loose fitting pinafores (also referred to as a pinny) during the hot weather. Even though I am now in The States, I still dress my daughter in this style!
The Sydney Pinafore
by Welcome to the Mouse House
fabric (approximately 1 yard)
2 buttons
1/2 inch elastic
Print out pattern page found HERE and double check that your inch square measures correctly.
Cut your fabric and elastic according to the measurements on the pattern page.
Seam allowances are 1/2 inch.
These will be the pieces you should have:
Prepping all the pieces:
With right sides together, sew your bib pieces on the 3 sides, leaving the bottom open. Clip corners.
Turn right side out, press with iron and top stitch if desired.
Fold and iron both strap pieces in half length ways, right sides together.
With right sides together, stitch the raw edges together, leaving the bottom open.
Turn both straps right side out and top stitch.
With right sides together, sew the skirt panels together on the shorter sides. Serge or use a zig zag stitch to finish off.
Flip the skirt so the right side is facing outwards.
Find the center of the front skirt panel and attach the bib using a basting stitch. The raw edge of the bib will line up with the raw edge of the skirt panel.
Now, flip your skirt over to the back skirt panel. Using the bib width as your guide, place your straps that far apart on the back panel. Secure with a basting stitch.
Now, it is time to create the elastic casing. At the top of your skirt, fold down 1/2 inch and iron.
Fold down another 3/4 inch and press.
You will see that your straps and bib have the raw edges tucked under now!
Now, sew your casing closed except for the bib area. Do not sew the bottom of the bib shut. Leave that open for now.
At this point, you need to top stitch both straps towards the top of the casing to ensure that the straps will not flop down. Do this before inserting the elastic.
Inserting the Elastic:
The design of this pinafore is such that the elastic only goes around the sides and the back, not the front. This creates the flat front and flared back, which is why we haven't sewed the casing on the bib yet.
The easiest way to insert elastic is to attach the one end with a safety pin, which helps feed it through your casing.
Start feeding your elastic through.
Feed your elastic all the way until you get to the other side.
Secure your elastic on each side with a straight stitch.
Once your elastic has been secured, NOW you can close up the interior side of the bib.
Turn the bib right side out and top stitch the upper part of the casing on the bib.
This is what you should have so far
Stitch your buttons onto the straps and create button holes on your bib. The button holes should be 1 inch from the sides and about 1/2 inch from the top.
Hem the dress, as desired. I folded up 1/2 inch and then another 1/2 inch for the 4t, but it always helps to measure your specific child before hemming.
Pinafore is Finished!
Using different fabrics and different length skirts can create whole new looks!
I have included the tutorial and a pdf pattern for sizes 12-24 months, 2t, 3t, 4t. Please keep in mind that you should measure your own child before starting to get the best fit.

|Drove up to the base of Francis then bagged it on the way to Thurston. Great road conditions. Got up there in a sedan. Like everyone else says on this site, the views from the top are quite breathtaking.

Date Climbed: Jun 26, 2017
|Nine hours round trip from Baer Canyon on a 97 degree day. There were still three snowy areas, but only the second one needed crampons. Way cool to see the radar towers up close - very high tech. Solo ascent.

|My fourth attempt was in 2015. I again hiked via Bair Canyon, this time with my oldest son and my daughter. When we got to the ridge, there was a huge cloudburst that turned into sleet and wind. We had ponchos, but we still got cold and wet. We hiked up the road to the towers and huddled next to the building until the storm let up. On the way down, the trail was wet and muddy and we fell several times. The trip took nearly 12 hours! It was great to finally reach the top.

|My first attempt (of four) was in 2013. My oldest son and I tried to hike up Bair Canyon to the towers, but got caught in a thunderstorm. We tried to sit out the rain, but then the lightning started hitting the mountain and we didn't think it would be a good idea to get anywhere near the top. We hiked back to the car, soaking wet and vowing to do it another day.

|We parked at the south base of Francis and headed over to Thurston Peak. On the way back we hit 9471 and then came up the north ridge of Francis. That was tiring after the other two peaks! The views are beautiful as we watched the sunset over the Great Salt Lake. Some people were having a date on top and eating Chick-fil-a. I wanted to steal those criss-cut fries so bad. So hungry!

|Ran with Matt Van Horn all the way up Farmington Canyon to the summit balls and back for 22 miles. I've run just under the summit 3 times during the Wasatch 100. One of the coolest things for me during the race is approaching the summit balls from the north and then running under them and to the south. When I'm over near Grandview Peak on the ridge I love looking back and seeing how far away those summit balls are.

|Via Baer/Bair Canyon
Went up the Baer/Bair Canyon Trail and then turn south on the Great Western Trail to Francis Peak. The snow line was about 7200', but it was just a few inches until the GWT. The GWT had drifts up to knee deep, but if I walked at the sides it was only about 6" or so. After Francis I walked north on the GWT to 9491. The snow was only a few inches deep in that direction. The ridge was completely socked in in the morning, but fortunately it cleared and there were great views in all directions.

Are you ready to make the best eggless chocolate cake/ cupcakes of your life. The one that has a soft crumb, very moist , melts in mouth and is ridiculously chocolaty and most importantly eggless and can be easily made vegan.
I would like to term it as NO FAIL RECIPE
not because it works for me always , it has been tried tested and loved by my family , friends and many other readers whom I have shared it with on a facebook group.
We all have nothing bad to say about it . I would call it as the PERFECT one.
Though I have certain set of favorite recipes that I like to follow for baking a chocolate cake , this one is the best of all .
I have made cakes and cupcakes using this recipe countless times and it has never failed me.
Absolutely forgiving recipe with couple substitute possibilities.
I am so happy to share this wonderful eggless chocolate cupcake recipe with you which can be used for baking a chocolate cake as well. It forms a perfect base for any kind of frosting, filling and occasion .
These moist chocolate cupcakes are made with ingredients available at home, no special buy's . So its fuss free and there isn't a single reason not to try it.
All you have to do is put dry ingredients in one bowl and wet ingredients in another bowl , then just quick whip everything together and bake .. that's about it.
Egg does like a zillion things to the cake – it binds, leavens moistens
And here we are making an eggless cake .. don't worry we can successfully achieve what an egg does without using it.
Let me brief you a bit about the ingredients used in this cake
I have used oil instead of butter – now please don't raise your brows ,oil keeps the cake super moist as compared to butter . If you want the buttery taste you can always add butter essence .
No condensed milk used – You don't have to make a special trip to the grocery store to buy condensed milk because you don't need one – it is soft and rich without it too.
There is vinegar in this cake – Please don't think I am crazy .. There is science behind using it. Vinegar reacts with the leavening agent here i.e baking soda and gives you the best fluffy soft end product .
We are using milk + vinegar to create buttemilk like texture and
If you don't have vinegar – buttermilk/chaas works exactly the same way as vinegar.
And if you don't have buttermilk use lemon juice.
So once again you don't have a single reason not to make it.
No baking powder used – Don't shut down your screen please. Trust me its not needed. Just blindly follow this recipe.
Do read the step by step instructions and notes carefully for perfect results.
Let the party begin!!
step by step method , recipe and tips follows
Pre heat your oven for 15 minutes, at least and line the cupcake pan with the liners.
- Sieve all dry ingredients from a height . Please don't skip this step . Sifting makes baked good really airy.
2) sift your sugar as well .I use sugar with very small granules . If you are using big granulated sugar then dissolve it with the liquid first.
3) mix all liquids together. Always use Liquid measuring cup for liquids and dry measuring cups for dry ingredients.
4) dry ingredients in one bowl and wet ones in another
5) pour liquid to the dry ingredient bowl – give a quick stir 2 – 3 times then whip it no more than 30- 40 seconds until lump free and smooth.
6) taste test , please control yourself from slurping the delicious batter
7) Scoop the batter for neater and easy filling of cupcake liners.
8) fill the liners evenly – no more than 3/4 full . Tap the pan twice gently on your work surface to get rid of any air bubbles.
9) bake it on the middle rack until done.
10) take it out of the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 mins. Then transfer it to the cooling rack . If you dont have a cooling rack just take them out of the pan to cool further.
moist and yum
- All purpose flour – 1 ½ cups / 215 grams
- Granulated Sugar – 1 cup / 214 grams
- Cocoa powder – ½ cup / 43 grams
- Baking soda – 1 teaspoon
- Salt – ½ teaspoon
- Milk – 1 cup / 240 ml
- Oil – ½ cup / 118 ml
- Pure Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon
- Vinegar – 2 teaspoon
- Milk plus vinegar is nothing but buttermilk:) so if u don't have vinegar use sour buttermilk ( chaas) 1 cup by replacing milk and vinegar
- Preheat oven to 350 degree F or 180 degree C.
- Line the cupcake tray with cupcake liners
- Sieve and Mix all dry ingredients (All purpose flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt) in a bowl. Always sieve from a height for tender crumb outcome
- Now time for liquids
- Add vinegar to milk and let it stand for a minute .. Stir in oil
- Use liquid measuring cup to measure the liquids for best results smile emoticon
- Mix liquid in the dry ingredients - whip with a electric whipper or by a spatula or hand whip only till the batter is smooth and no lumps - don't over beat - very important
- Mine is always ready within 30-40 secs.
- And bake in pre-heated oven for about 18-20 minutes or till toothpick inserted in center of cupcake will come out with few dry crumbs .. Don't over bake
- Remove it from oven and after 5 minutes remove cupcakes on wire rack and let them cool completely before frosting.
- Please follow the given tips - for the best tender moist cupcakes
Milk plus vinegar is nothing but buttermilk:) so if u don't have vinegar use sour buttermilk ( chaas) 1 cup buttermilk in place of milk
As there may be difference in flour quality - if you think the batter is too thick add no more than 3 tbsp water - 1 tbsp at a time
use whipping attachment not beaters
Can be stored at room temperature unfrosted upto 3 days in a air tight container
1 week in the fridge
3 months in the freezer
Can be substituted with wheat flour with a slight variation in results of course.
reduce the amount of flour by 2 tbsp and mix as less as possible to avoid gluten development.
Can be made vegan too
Substitute regular milk for soy / almond / rice milk or even water .
substitute sugar -use raw sugar same quantity
don't worry about the cracks on the top of the cupcakes , they will settle down by next day and the taste of chocolate is much deeper after 24 hours. If you plan to frost them the cracks wont be visible.
I made these cupcakes for my sons birthday too – the below is picture of the cupcakes i have baked using this recipe. They have a nice smooth top with deep rich chocolate color and taste. Baked 1 day prior to frosting.
then frosted it with assorted buttercream and toppings – the ice cream theme cake was inspired by – (my cakeschool.)
For cake
Follow same recipe
tin size to be used – two 6′" round or one 8″ round
bake for 28 -35 mins or untill the toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes clean with few crumbs and not with batter.
check after 28 minute mark
Always dust and line your cake pans
cake with a perfect flat top
inverted on the cooling rack
The cupcakes are so delicious on their own that they do not require frosting. However choice is yours – dress them how ever you want . Just have fun with them.
I have piped the cupcake with ganache and added homemade modeling chocolate leaf . I will be making a fresh new post on frostings in coming weeks.
Happy baking!!
Hope you will definitely make it and do share pictures of your hard work as a message on my fb page or email me at carveyourcraving(at)gmail (dot) com so that I can feature it on my facebook page carveyourcraving under readers success .
if you like this post please rate it and drop in your feedback too.

Good girl! And don't be afraid. Really, it is not that bad. Most people say the prep is the worse part because after 6pm you have to fast and drink the stuff that makes you "go". I didn't find that part bad at all. Maybe because I started eating light a few days before.
I did some checking and found that Farrah has anal cancer, not colon cancer. It is said to be a rare cancer, with just over 4,000 women being diagnosed each year. It is also said that colonoscopies do not detect it. My gastroenterologist checked for it before he began the colonoscopy.
I hope other women follow your lead and make that appointment. Okay ladies, roll call. If you've had your colonoscopy chime in. If you havent and have made your appointment, let us know. Let's see how many we can recruit.
I'm usually on the Diabetes or Ostomy forums, but saw this topic and came in to say Hello and to stress the importance of regular colonoscopies.
In November 2004, my colonoscopy/biopsy showed a highly dysplasic anal ulcer. The surgeon was able to excise it by expanding the anus; bm's were normal and pain free within a couple of weeks.
To avoid my insurance deductible, I put off the annual followup colonoscopy till January 2006. In those 14 months I had developed rectal cancer on the anal verge. After APR surgery in February, I now have a permanent colostomy and a "Barbie butt" (anus/rectum removed and neat scar line).
Upside of this is that because of early detection the cancer was contained and had not invaded lymph... Stage I... no chemo/rad required... surviellance only. I am Truly Blessed!
Regular colonoscopies are a MUST. Get one yourself and encourage your family and friends to have them, too. It's not a difficult procedure; I've always been given a "twilight" sedative, and even the prep doesn't have to be awful .. if you ask, they'll give you pills or the 4 oz instead of the gallon!

Hi, Tammy ...
You'll know it, but you won't feel it. The sedative is usually enough to allow it to pass, but should you have difficulity the Dr can spray a numbing medication which works immediately.
Warren has an overactive gag reflex and sometimes needs the numbing spray if the sedation is very light. Personally, I want them to knock me out, do what they gotta do, wake me up and let me go out for breakfast! Since this is a fasting procedure, try to schedule it as early in the morning as possible.
Good Luck! Martha


text: Hi all, I am considering purchasing the KTM 1190. I test rode the bike and was impressed with the performance. However, 2 things really stood out. One of them is a serious potential deal breaker, the other is solved simply with $$. Well, both are solved with $$ The #1 big problem is Heat. I know, I know, you are all thinking here we go again a troll. I have seen the Wings fix and like it, but I would really like to talk and ride with someone local to be sure that the Wings fix works well. The 2nd issue is the seat. For me anyway it's terrible. Any suggestions for after market seats would be great. I had a 2 up seat for our FJR made at Rich's and it cost me a lot of $$. Thanks for any feedback.
