"What are you giving up for Lent." There's more to Lent than just foregoing something enjoyable for six weeks.
Several years ago I bought into the Konmari plan for decluttering. Clothes were scattered across the floor from closets and rooms all over the house. Eventually the books were in piles in the living room. And with every new task, I found that recognizing my joy was coming easier and easier.
If you are not familiar with Marie Kondo's method of cleaning out, it is a defined process to rid your home of anything that does not "spark joy," and thus to clear away from your life all that would suck the joy out of living. Ask me. Yep, it works!
If it is appealing to you to remove the clutter from your life, then this is your holiday season: Lent. If you are spiritual but not religious, this season is tailor-made for you!
Lent is better understood as a short time to put all your life out on the floor and take a look at it. Pick up the pieces of your life and hold them for a moment. Then ask yourself one question:
Does this part of my life and identity produce good fruit--love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control?
If you would like a day-by-day guide for this journey, you can access a "Lenten Calendar." In our tradition this calendar is coupled with a fish bank offering for kids and the collection is offered on Easter Sunday in a special church-wide offering to help others.
Join us in sacrificing a few minutes every day to de-clutter and rediscover your joy.
Dear Friends:
Much has been said about Sen. John McCain having reached across the aisle, about how he and Sen. Kennedy were friends, about his interrupting a supporter to stop a false narrative about his opponent, then future President Barack Obama. Almost without exception these narratives have been celebrated as a universal common good we should all strive towards.
Democrats and Republicans alike have affirmed this conviction. Yes, they actually agreed on something. And surprisingly, it was that our differences should not divide us.
Soon the reverie around the Senator will fade and his grave will settle, and that goal will recede thus leaving little more than a footnote to the narrative of McCain's death and life. Once again we shall return to the habits of division we have been manipulated into upholding, even promulgating.
Christian—you have another option! You can make a different choice. You have the freedom in Christ to freely associate with those you would name, "sinner," "outcast," "undesirable," "deplorable," "illegal," "alien," "evil," "different," "not like us."
Christian—Christ has set you free to accept yourselves and to love God and neighbor, and be bound together with all believers in the church. (Brief Statement of Faith)
This particular invitation is specifically directed to the members of the Church. What better place to demonstrate the unity of God and the reconciliation of all creation? Where else is God going to do this work if not in Christ's own body, the church? Who else to proclaim the gospel of reconciliation if not the followers of the Risen Christ who is our reconciliation? If we in the body of Christ cannot hear and be the word that proclaims, "there is no longer [many] for you are all one in Christ Jesus," then God's word of full reconciliation will be fulfilled without us leading the Way.
Christ offers an invitation, a place to practice our unity. Christ invites us to supper. We don't come to the Lord's Supper because we have everything in common or because we all believe exactly the same things or because we have the same theology. We come because we have ONE thing in common: we are invited by our Savior, Jesus Christ.
On Sunday, come, all you who are weary, and let Christ give you rest. And don't worry about who else is invited, just rejoice that your name is on the list! Christian, maybe, the world would take notice of our reaching across the table—if we actually did so.
Peace, Rev Bev

The Information You Need On College Is Here
College is not just the next place to go once high school is over. It's a place of higher education that is chalked full of life choices. You need to plan everything out and not just skate through it.
When going to college, ensure you carry enough toiletries with you. This is essential, as you will use them often and may run out before you know it. Shop around for good deals by buying in bulk from outlet stores when possible.
Be realistic when planning to work while in college. If you aren't a night person, don't schedule night classes or labs. Understand your internal clock and work with it as much as you can.
Devote as much time as you can to studying each day. When you work as hard as possible, you'll reap great rewards. You will be able to socialize and go to school. Doing well in college will mean more money and a better career.
Do some research about scholarships or grants you are eligible for. There are many different scholarships related to different areas of study or designed for certain students. Also check into forgivable loans and government grants.
Regardless of whether you are a male or a female, go to the gym as often as possible on campus. You can get your workout in, and you can also meet up with many people in your school who are active. There also may be people you can find to go to the gym with you and that is good if you need to expand your social network.
Get enough rest. When you are attending school, you may find it easy to stay up for a party and then do homework, but it will catch up to you. When you don't get the right amount of sleep, you'll start to become forgetful, irritable, and you aren't going to get the full college experience.
Get your general education requirements fulfilled in the beginning. If there is a class that you are not looking forward to that is required for your degree, take it early. That way, you won't have to deal with it later when you are taking more enjoyable classes. Also, you probably aren't going to enjoy being one of the only seniors in your class that contains mostly freshman if you procrastinate.
If you have a credit card, pay off the balance each month. You will never get any penalties or late charges this way. Generally, you should only use a credit card when an emergency arises. Use your need to focus on academics to keep from using the card for frivolous endeavors. Don't let yourself become distracted by financial woes.
Purchase used books. The cost of text books is very high. Tuition costs are high as it is and you don't need to spend a lot of money on books. Look for online retailers and bookstores for used textbooks. Choosing used books can save you quite a bit.
This article should have you well on your way to planning for your college experience. College can be a new beginning for you. It's crucial to learn all you can.

Younha, Younha, Younha. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways…
…Nope. Not possible to count them all. I'm not going to even attempt it. I was supposed to be studying, yet I'm writing this post on Younha's majesty. That should be enough to let you know how much I love her. She is thisclose to being my favorite K-pop act EVER.
Anyway, just take her voice in and you'll understand my fascination with her. She's simply ethereal.
But first, let me show you how freaking amazing her company WeAlive is when it comes to making teasers (SM Entertainment, learn something here!)
The Album Teaser:
My Favorite Teaser:
Younha stands out not only for her teasers, but how ridiculously fantastic her songs make you feel when you're listening to the album by yourself. They are not necessarily the best songs (I don't like them all,) but I guarantee that they are all extremely emotional. You learn to experience music through Younha's voice and every song will assuredly be something to appreciate, even if you don't love each one.
Honestly though, I really cannot do her voice justice by just talking about her recent Korean Discography, so I resort to just embedding YouTube videos of her recent discography. (I've only put the English names in the tracklist.) Hopefully, I'll get around to making a Time Machine for her.
This album is practically flawless. It leans towards Pop-Rock as opposed to pure Pop Music, and Younha's timbre is really the key to the perfection of this whole thing. She emphasizes the right notes, hangs on the right lines, adds vibrato at all the right places, hits all the stylistic elements that bring each song to life…when I say listen to Every. Single. Song., I absolutely mean it. I can't pick favorites, nor do I skip around songs when I listen to the whole thing. If you can't take my word for it, it might be beneficial to know that this album took the crown for 2012's Best K-pop Album, was in the top 5 (more like 2) of said list, or received a perfect review in the K-pop blogosphere; McRoth's, Pop Reviews Now, Seoulbeats…you name a major review site, it's probably won something there.
- Supersonic
- People
- Rock Like Stars
- Run
- No Limit
- Shower
- Would We Have Changed?
- Set Me Free
- Cream Sauce Pasta
- Wait For Me
- Driver
- Hope
This one isn't as jaw-dropping as the previous, but well worth the "listen" Younha asks us for (it's a very aptly named album, if you ask me.) The sound of this album is very much "Younha" though she's a bit more experimental here. I've bolded the songs I highly recommend after the first listen alone, and the starred (*) ones are those that grew on me rapidly. The other two? It's just that they're not really to MY tastes, but they are still good songs. (Here is a beautiful review of this album by Nikki at Pop Reviews Now)
- Just Listen*
- Fireworks*
- The Real Reason We Broke Up
- Spring
- It's Not Like That
- One Fine Day*
- Sea Child

Warfare today is a mixture of ancient principles and modern realities. Military planners must consider a bewildering range of conventional and emerging threats—everything from the actions of rival nations, to terror networks, cyber-attacks, eroding international treaties, and even climate change. In this complex and fraught security environment, the United States faces no shortage of potential flashpoints as it seeks to defend its global interests. How, then, can the nation avoid war? And if it is drawn into armed conflict, what weapons, tactics, and strategic principles will help the US win?

The German Trinity has been ruling the Indian automobile luxury car segment for a long time and while these companies were earning huge revenues, the the British marque Jaguar was missing out on the hugely rewarding offer.The reason of this loss was because Jaguar was missing the base variant executive luxury saloon market, where Mercedes, Audi and BMW were having a headfirst with 2.0L and 2.2L base variant. Jaguar has finally taken a heed into that direction and rolled out an extremely competitive 2.2-litre diesel XF. Akin to the the 3.0-litre diesel, the 2.2-litre motor is mounted longitudinally and powers the rear wheels. The power and torque figures are marked at 187bhp and 449Nm respectively and translates directly into a responsive and adequately powerful car.To be true the small engine performance is astoundig and the only time you will probably realise the engine's squeezed down capacity is when you want more urge at high speeds. The 2.2L engine is way too eager to rev to its redline and pulls the vehicle in a linear manner while it is doing so. The sprint capacity is marked for 0-100kph in 9.1sec, which is pretty much on par with the rest of the competition. Its kick-down acceleration times are impressive too, which points to why this engine felt so flexible in Indian heavy traffic.
There is a huge demand for the luxury cars in India and the inclination of the buyers are towards big cars having small engines. This is one of the reasons why most of the manufacturers are heading towards manufacturing bigger cars with smaller engines. Jaguar XF is one of the cars with the same functionality.
Jaguar has rolled out Jaguar XF, which produces 238bhp and 340Nm. This engine is the most powerful one in this segment and it comes mated to an HP transmission. In terms of power, this car is linear and you feel its drive ability. It drives amazingly well and does not make you feel the turbo lack at any time. The gear shift has been made pretty smooth.
As far as its shortcomings are concerned, Jaguar XF is not a car with a huge power capacity. There are other variants of this car available; 3Liter diesel and the super powerful 5Liter, 510bhp XF. The look of this amazing car has been carved out keeping the luxury and comfort of the passengers in mind. The design is aerodynamic and has been made very spacious. Overall, this car is the best option if the users need a petrol car and an XF under 15 lakh.

Many ThanksOn October 16th of 2006 Puffy AmiYumi World began poking its kawaii nose out of the rabbit hole of cyberspace. Its hopeful aspiration was to one day become the premier fansite for all things Puffy AmiYumi.
Now over a year later I want to thank everyone for helping to get this unofficial fansite consistently to the #3 or #4 spot in Google and Yahoo searches for "Puffy AmiYumi" (darn you Wikipedia!). We get a growing number of hits each month from all over the world and I am deeply thankful to everyone.
More content is in the works as time allows so keep checking back.
Japanese language translations from Puffy's official sites and elsewhere were done by myself with help from some great friends including Hiroko, Hiroshi, Kita-kik, Masaaki, Michi, Mikachi, Satomi, Yasuko and Yoshie.
Romanji lyrics were either done by myself or edited from existing websites such as Lyric Wiki. Credits have been given for all English translations. If you see any obvious errors please let me know.
Pictures were either scanned from my collection or copied from other websites, such as Japanese Yahoo Auctions. Hopefully they all fall within the "fair use" criteria for non-profit public domain usage.
My Song Finder Videos only sample about 20 seconds per song with the intended purpose of encouraging people to buy their CDs. Please support Puffy's hard work by buying their CDs and DVDs.
And finally let me give a big THANK YOU to everyone at the Puffy AmiYumi World forum for all their helpful information and advice since it went live on September 12th, 2007. Puffy fans are the best! Special thanks in particular to Anthony, DoAsPuffy, Jeff, TofuUnion and Yom1970 for their all their info, translation help and pictures.
Want to help feed the bunny? Link to us everywhere you can and send in your suggestions, information and pictures to email@example.com or better yet join our discussion forum. You can also contact me at my MySpace page.

DirecTV Allows NFL Sunday Ticket Refunds After Protests
DirecTV viewers upset with the national anthem protests in the NFL can cancel their Sunday Ticket package subscriptions and receive refunds.
DirecTV and the National Football League (NFL) declined to comment, but customer service representatives said refunds would be granted even though DirecTV does not typically allow them once the regular season has started.
Out of work Quarterback Colin Kaepernick started kneeling last year to protest police brutality and many NFL players followed his lead.
US President Donald Trump ramped up the issue Friday when he told a crowd at a campaign rally in Alabama that NFL players who kneel should be fired.
"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a b—- off the field right now, out, he's fired. He's fired,'" President Trump said. "You know, some owner is going to do that. He's going to say, 'That guy that disrespects our flag, he's fired.' And that owner, they don't know it, [but] they'll be the most popular person in this country."
Some NFL teams last weekend in response chose to stay off the field altogether during the national anthem.
Stay tuned…

(WASHINGTON, D.C., 4/25/19) - The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation's largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization today welcomed this afternoon's landmark victory in CAIR's First Amendment lawsuit on behalf of Bahia Amawi, the Texas speech language pathologist who lost her job because she refused to sign a "No Boycott of Israel" clause.
The CAIR Legal Defense Fund filed the lawsuit in December 2018 challenging Texas Anti-BDS Act, H.B. 89. CAIR actively challenges similar measures around the country, including in Arizona and Maryland.
SEE: CAIR Files Motion to Enjoin Texas Anti-BDS Act as Unconstitutional
This afternoon Judge Pitman of the Western District of Texas issued a 56-page opinion striking down H.B. 89, the Texas Anti-BDS Act, as facially unconstitutional.
READ: The Judge's Opinion
The Court held that the Texas Anti-BDS Act "threatens to suppress unpopular ideas" and "manipulate the public debate" on Israel and Palestine "through coercion rather than persuasion." The Court concluded: "This the First Amendment does not allow."
Every single "No Boycott of Israel" clause in every single state contract in Texas has today been stricken as unconstitutional. The Attorney General of Texas is no longer permitted to include or enforce "No Boycott of Israel" clauses in any state contract.
Bahia Amawi can also now return to work as a speech language pathologist. Amawi received the news of her victory while driving, and pulled over to the side of the road to shed tears of joy. "God is great," she exclaimed.
"We thank our legal team for this major victory and we thank the community for supporting this work," said CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad.
"We're gearing up for the fights in the other 26 states where anti-BDS laws have been passed and we are certain that we are on the right side of the constitution and history."
"Arabic-speaking schoolchildren in Texas have been deprived of critical services from Bahia Amawi for almost this entire schoolyear because of this unconstitutional law," said CAIR National Litigation Director Lena Masri. "Today we welcome a victory for the First Amendment."
"This is a complete victory of the First Amendment against Texas's attempts to suppress speech in support of Palestine," said CAIR Senior Litigation Attorney Gadeir Abbas. "More importantly, it's a complete victory for all Texans, to engage in political speech without government censorship."
"The First Amendment blocks any effort by state governments or the federal government from forcing their citizens to take sides in the widespread international debate about the relationship between Israel and Palestine," said CAIR Trial Attorney Carolyn Homer. "This is a lesson all public servants should remember when considering Anti-BDS measures around the country."
"Bahia Amawi has been an inspiration to the Muslim community and all advocates for free speech in Texas," said CAIR-Austin Executive Director Maira Sheikh.
CAIR is America's largest Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organization. Its mission is to enhance understanding of Islam, protect civil rights, promote justice, and empower American Muslims.
La misión de CAIR es proteger las libertades civiles, mejorar la comprensión del Islam, promover la justicia, y empoderar a los musulmanes en los Estados Unidos.

I would also to thank the judge for standing with justice
Mike Dean commented 2019-04-27 09:30:59 -0400That's really fantastic news! Congratulations! I too lost a contract with a college in TX for refusing to sign that shameful pledge to Israel. Never believed it was constitutional. Let's hope Senator Rubio fails to pass his federal version.
Ola Abed commented 2019-04-27 04:25:57 -0400So proud of CAIR for the victory today against the anti-BDS law of the State of Texas.
The law is declared to be unconstitutional
Kashef Zayed commented 2019-04-27 02:05:03 -0400Victory to the basic human rights in the country! All free men and women should raise their voices against injustice.
Khalil Ahmad commented 2019-04-27 00:28:44 -0400BDS is the right of Palestinian and American to defend third right of free speech against Zionist's Opression.
Rafik Beekun commented 2019-04-26 19:16:38 -0400Fabulous news. The US is not a third world banana republic where one can infringe upon the Constitution at will. It's high time that any state law that limits or constrains the First Amendment be struck down.

Love is hard to explain
I was asked why I want to save the wild orchids. To me it is so evident that I was stunned by the question. My silence of perplexion was interrupted by a suggested reply;
– Is it because the forest eco-system will collapse without them?
– No…..
– So it is all about esthetics?
I should say it is all about moral. You do not shoot down children and women like that smiling Norwegian monstrum, and you do not allow smiling cavemen (rich or poor) exterminate supreme beings. It is wrong!
The ongoing extermination upsets me as much as a mass murder, so to understand my feelings and motivation, imagine somebody phoning from that Norwegian island asking for help, and the response from the police is 'we are busy chasing the invisible man', and a doctor replies 'we are busy playing golf', a journalist replies 'we are busy covering the suicide of Amy Crackhouse' and a boatman says 'I bring my gun too, sounds like fun'.
Would you be upset if you learnt about such answers? This is how upset I am about society's priorities and indolence regarding the extinction of species. Asking me if I want to save species from extinction due to esthetics is like asking a regular Norwegian 'why did you go out in your own pathetic boat to help the youngsters, was it because you are a snob'?
Some orchid clubs worldwide seem more occupied with their exhibitions of man-made orchids as platforms for personal glory and awards, rather than being concerned about the survival of the original supreme and wild (real) orchids. Those that do not need man. Those that were here before man. Those that die from ignorance and greed. The environmental organizations are busy chasing the invisible man (carbon dioxide) rather than a real murderer. Where are the eco warriors?
I do not want to save Dendrobium pachyglossum (Orchidaceae) because she is important or beautiful, I do because I love her and it is the only decent thing to do, like the campers who went out with small private boats to save wounded youngsters from the Norwegian madman's orgy of death.
In the case of orchid conservation, the really interesting question to ask is why most people do not care?
Especially people who join orchid societies, people who become orchid researchers, people who happily pay large amounts for orchids to adorn their houses? Are the living and fantastic orchids simply substitutes for knitting societies, a buttonology career and colourful wall paper, or is there any passion outside the egocentric reign?
Are the Southeast Asian orchids too far away, in too strange countries? Administrative regions (countries) are late inventions. We are all citizens of Earth, and if an administrative region is run by murderous madmen like in Burma, nothing constructive is expected. We shall all be cursed by future generations when they see the pictures of gorgeous but extinct species and learn about how content we were while the orgy of destruction lasted. Do not wait for the authorities to arrive, we must all row!
Saving the wild orchids, and their forests, is all about love.
Eric Danell

My sweet Granny turned 90 years old today. I was named after her (Lucile is her name and my middle) and she has always been very special to me. She and my grandfather were married 60 years before he passed away about ten years ago, and their marriage served as an inspiration to all of us.
They had two children, my mother and my Uncle Frank. They lived a simple life on a farm in middle Georgia, with most of their time spent raising their family, working hard and going to church.
Most of my family learned to cook from Granny and if anyone asks what our favorite meal is, we usually say, "Granny's fried chicken!" She doesn't cook fried chicken very often these days, but she does cook something nearly every day and she even still drives…only about a quarter of a mile up the road to my Mama's house though! But she did renew her driver's license last week, "just in case."
In honor of Granny, I'm posting a list of some of our favorite family recipes that came from her:
These are just a few…there are many more to come. Enjoy!

Cubic yard to Microliter Converter
Cubic yard
What is liter?
In the past, liter was defined as the volume of one kilogram of pure water at 4 °C. Nowadays, liter is an important unit of volume used in the metric system which is equal to one cubic decimeter.
In other words, a cubic with 10 cm sides, has a volume of one liter. "L" is the symbol of liter. Liter has a french origin as it was derived from the french unit "Litron".
Liter is widely used, however, the cubic meter is the main SI unit of volume.
A microliter is one cubic millimeter. It is a unit of volume which equals to 1/1,000,000th of a liter (one-millionth).
The symbol for microliter is μl or μL.
1 μL = 10-6 L = 10-3 mL.

Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far
One of 15 covers for Stefan Sagmeister's new book, published in March. Concept: Stefan Sagmeister. Design: Stefan Sagmeister, Matthias Ernstberger. Publisher: Abrams
Currently on show at Deitch Projects' Grand Street gallery in New York is a new exhibition of work by Stefan Sagmeister. Entitled Things I Have Learned In My Life So Far, the show is a continuation of Sagmeister's book of the same name, published by Abrams Books this spring.
The book is based on a list of maxims made by the graphic designer on his "experimental year" in 2000, where he took time out from working on commercial projects. While the maxims read as a mixture of wise pragmatism with philosophical reflection, they quickly became incorporated into projects for clients when Sagmeister's office reopened, and it is 20 of these projects that form the book.

Could SOL MOTORS' Pocket Rocket Change Urban Commuting?
Commuting is a chore. There's no two ways about it. And if you're averse to using public transport as much as we are, chances are you've considered getting yourself a bike. Well, one company looking to change our commuting habits is German motor company SOL MOTORS and their minimalist and lightweight Pocket Rocket.
Officially unveiled at the INTERMOT International Motorcycle Fair, the innovative SOL MOTORS Pocket Rocket is characterised by a lightweight aluminium tube frame that connect all parts of the electric bike in one minimal, contemporary design.
Standing at just over 2.5ft in height, the bike is the perfect synergy of lightweight design, performance, and connectivity – essentially a commuter's dream vehicle. So much so, the Pocket Rocket recently won an award at this year's German Design Awards for its innovation.
The main centre tube houses basically everything on the bike, including the removable battery and the bike's computer. It also features the futuristic LED headlamp at the front, and LED brake light and turn signals at the rear. Not only that, on the tech-side of things the Pocket Rocket connects to Android or IOS for fleet management integration.
It approximately weighs just 55kgs, and like most EVs, has regenerative braking. But the most impressive thing about SOL MOTORS' creation is that it is able to travel up to a range of 50 miles on a single charge and can reach speeds of up to 50mph thanks to its 8.5hp electric motor.
The SOL MOTORS Pocket Rocket electric bike is currently still in the design phase and it might be a year or so before anything hits production. Early murmurs suggest it'll cost something in excess of £5,000 but keep an eye on the SOL MOTORS Website.
Another company looking to change the personal transport game is CeramicSpeed and their Driven concept. Dubbed 'the world's most efficient drivetrain,' the cycling system does away with chains in favour of carbon fibre.

Electric Hoists And Manual Hoists
Materials Handling Systems, Inc. offers a variety of electric and manual hoists designed to meet the specific demands of your project.
Electric hoists usually fall into one of two categories: Chain Hoists or Wire Rope Hoists.
Electric chain hoists are designed to provide reliability and are commonly used to lift less than 7.5 tons. They may be less expensive than electric wire rope hoists, and provide true vertical lift for applications requiring extreme precision. Electric chain hoists can also be used on single, double or box girder cranes and provide the operator with speed controls which allow for more accurate positioning of the load.
Wire rope hoists are used for heavier applications (usually more than 10 tons), and are very fast and efficient in lifting. They are designed for areas with low headroom that need to get the highest lift possible.
Manual Chain Hoists are a lower cost alternative and can be a practical choice in low headroom areas. They can be attached to a trolley on an overhead crane or installed on a fixed point. The capacity of a manual chain hoist can vary from just a few hundred pounds, up to a max of around 10 tons.

For Ludlow artist Rachel Saloio, the mural-sized painting 'Community' is nothing short of a labor of love.
Saloio was commissioned by the Springfield Housing Authority this summer to paint a four-by-eight feet work of art to illustrate Talk/Read/Succeed!, the collaborative, family-based literacy initiative that has made strides in boosting and retaining reading levels among children at two family developments.
Her work on the project, done in SHA's break room on the fourth floor of the Executive Offices at 60 Congress St., spanned about a month, and included much input from staffers eager to watch the process, and be a part of it.
The end result is a colorful, dynamic rendition of people, place, and a concept. "I want people to look at this and see that no matter who you are, or where you live, you have potential. You're a good person," Saloio said. "When you're young, when you're a child, you need to believe that."
Saloio's painting has been framed by Rick Mauran and is hanging in the fourth-floor conference room at SHA's headquarters. It will be unveiled before the Board of Commissioners and guests on Tuesday Sept. 15 at 4 p.m.

For those who like their coffee beverages cold, there are several options, but the most popular is iced coffee. Iced coffee products make up 25% of the menu in an average coffee shop. Cold brew first appeared on menus in large chains and local shops in 2015. Since then, they have rapidly grown in popularity. Now customers are trying to decide which cold cup of caffeine to chose. Do you know the difference between iced coffee and cold brew? If not, you're about to find out.
RELATED READING: A comparison of the 5 most popular iced coffee makers in 2020
Iced coffee and cold brew taste different, even if brewed with the same roast. This is due to the brewing process. Iced coffee is brewed hot and then poured over ice. This means it retains the qualities of a cup of hot coffee. Cold brew, on the other hand, has a brewing process all its own. Large batches of coffee grounds are steeped in cold water, usually in a water to coffee ratio of 3 to 1, for 12-20 hours. The longer the cold brew steeps, the bolder the flavor. If cold brew is over-steeped (longer than 24 hours), it can become very bitter.
Why does the brewing process make a difference in the taste? The oils and acids in coffee are called soluble compounds. They are part of what gives coffee their signature aroma and taste. When water runs through coffee grinds, it pulls out the natural oils. However, the temperature of the water makes a big difference. When hot water is used, more of the oils and acids are released at a quicker rate. These oils oxidize which gives coffee it's bitter or sour characteristic. When cold water is used, less of the compounds oxidize and the oxidation is slower. Some of the compounds left behind contribute to the bitter flavors in coffee. Therefore, cold brew tends to be much smoother, less aromatic, and slightly sweeter in flavor than black iced coffee.
Is there a difference in caffeine level? Sometimes. Several variables determine caffeine level. These include the roast used, the grind, the temperature, and the amount of coffee used in proportion to water. Referring to the Starbucks website, a 12 oz iced coffee has 120 mg of caffeine, while their 12 oz cold brew has 155 mg of caffeine. However, this may not always be the case. If choosing a cold coffee beverage with a higher caffeine content is important to you, ask your barista about caffeine amounts per drink. Another option for more caffeine is to go to a coffee shop that sells nitro cold brew. This is simply cold brew mixed with nitrogen. Like beer, it comes out of a tap and has a foamy head. Starbucks reports that their 12 oz nitro cold brew has 215 mg of caffeine. Nitro cold brew is not served over ice, because most nitro cold brew systems are refrigerated and the nitrogen makes it cold when it comes out of the tap as well. Avid drinkers of nitro cold brew enjoy the coldness without the ice, the smooth flavor and mouthfeel, and the added caffeine boost.
Iced coffee and cold brew are both delicious choices. What you're looking for in your cup of coffee, however, will determine the one that's best for you. If you like the bold and slightly bitter taste coffee can offer, prefer more acidity in your coffee, or enjoy the aroma of coffee, then iced coffee is your friend. If you prefer a smoother taste, less aroma, or a slightly sweeter finish then cold brew is the winner for you. Happy coffee drinking.

VISIT MARSEILLE (Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur)
If you are looking for a sunny getaway from Paris, Marseille is the place to go. Marseille looks far on the map but Paris to Marseille is only 3.5 hours by train with the TGV. Marseille, in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, is part of the French Riviera. Many people visit Marseille quickly on their way to Corsica Island but the city is a cool place to explore on its own.
Why you should visit Marseille
The weather in Marseille is great plus there are lots of things to see and do in the city. Central Marseille concentrates most of the sights of the city, such as the picturesque Old Port, the Cathedral, the Abbey of Saint Victor or l'Hotel Dieu just to name a few. Since its designation as the European Capital of Culture in 2013, Marseille also upgraded their museums and cultural agenda and the top Musée des Civilisations de l'Europe et de la Méditerranée (MuCEM) and the Villa Méditerranée were inaugurated in 2013 for the event. If you are looking for more than city sights, the awesome Calanques de Marseille, between Marseille and Cassis, are never far . . .
TIP: if you are planning to visit the Calanques the Marseille, this catamaran cruise & lunch in the Calanques National Park is fabulous!
Paris to Marseille by Train
Marseille is located at 773 km south of Paris. Paris to Marseille by train is very easy. Direct trains Paris to Marseille leave Paris Gare de Lyon for a journey of 3.5 hours. If you are traveling to Marseille on summer weekends we recommend booking the train tickets well in advance.

VISIT ROUEN (Normandy)
Located by the River Seine, Rouen is the administrative capital of Normandy. Nicknamed "the city of 100 bell towers", Rouen has a rich history, interesting museums, and good gastronomy.
Rouen is one of the most beautiful short trips from Paris. Due to its short distance from the capital (126 km), many people visit Rouen on day trips from Paris but this is a city that deserves more than a few hours.
Why you should visit Rouen
Notre-Dame Cathedral in Rouen is one of France's Grandes Cathédrales and a jewel of gothic architecture. This is Monet's beloved cathedral, the one that inspired his "Cathedrals" series.
Rouen owns one of the most beautiful medieval centers of France. Get lost in its pedestrian streets and admire its beautiful timber frame houses. Rouen's Old Market Square was the place where Jeanne d'Arc was burned alive and a visit to the History Museum is a good opportunity to know more about the Saint Patron of France.
Last but not least, enjoy Rouen's gastronomy, visit its various markets displaying delicious local products and taste some of the city's specialties, and in particular, the seafood.
TIP: Rouen is easy to combine with other places related to Monet like Giverny or Etretat
Paris to Rouen by Train
Rouen is located at 126 km from Paris. Paris to Rouen by train is very easy. Trains Paris to Rouen leave Paris Saint Lazare Train Station hourly. The journey takes 1h 15 min to 1h 45min, depending on the train.

With short train rides from Paris like this one, people tend to visit Chartres on a day trip from Paris but if you want to get the most out of the city or see Chartres' Light Show, at night during the summer, it is a good idea to spend at least one night in Chartres.

The Gardens of Maintenon Le Chateau, for example, were designed by André Le Notre, the same landscape architect who designed Versailles Gardens and Château de Chantilly. Finally, we want to walk the path down to the river Eure, which is dotted with cute small houses. Some of these houses have their private boats.

VISIT NANTES (Pays de la Loire)
Nantes, located by the river Loire, is today a young and dynamic city with an interesting history and lots of creativity. It is a city not well known by people who visit France yet, that's why accommodation in Nantes is slightly cheaper than in other cities in France. We had so much fun in Nantes that we can only recommend it!
Why you should visit Nantes
Nantes is a very interesting weekend getaway from Paris. Traditionally an industrial city with the biggest shipyards of the country, its owners invested their fortunes in beautiful mansions and houses around the main squares of the city. Nantes was also the former capital of the Dukes of Brittany and history buffs will enjoy their medieval palace and other buildings related to them. Jules Verne was born and raised in Nantes and some of his novels inspired Les Machines de l'Ile, found in the former shipyards on the Isle of Nantes. Don't leave Nantes without visiting the beautiful Passage Pommeraye, in Quartier Graslin, very similar to the covered passages of Paris. At #22, Maison Carnicol sells perhaps the most delicious kouignettes (traditional little cakes) of Nantes! Finally, enjoy Nantes' nightlife at Bouffay neighborhood, with little and narrow streets with many restaurants, quick eats and places to drink.

They needed one more comeback.
But after a thrilling week of hockey that saw the Terrace River Kings come from behind to win all three round robin games to gain a bye to the Coy Cup championship final Saturday, March 28, the team didn't get it, losing 6-1 to the Fort St. John Flyers in Fort Nelson to take silver at the AA senior men's championship for the second year in a row.
"I think that they watched us play all week and figured out what they had to do to win. They're a good team, there's no question about it," said River Kings general manager Ray Hallock this morning.
"We beat them fair and square in the first game, and they just came out a little stronger (this game)," he said, referencing the Kings' 4-3 OT win against the AAA Flyers in game one of the tournament.
River Kings captain Steve Cullis said the team went in expecting a close championship game, and for the most part, it was.
At the end of the first period the Flyers were up 1-0, with the Kings tying it up in the second on the power play. But Fort St. John scored two late second period goals to make it 3-1 after 40 minutes, and managed to keep the momentum going in the third.
"We kept it close 'til late in the second, they got a power play goal and a bit of a break to make it 3-1 and then we still felt good about the game going into the third, but they got a quick one right at the start of the third and kind of just laid it up," he said.
"We gave them a couple of breaks and they capitalized and then we just couldn't recover after that one at the start of the third," he continued.
Taking second place to the Flyers was a bittersweet end to a phenomenal season that saw the Kings win the CIHL league championship for the first time ever, and a Coy Cup tournament that showcased a number of standout moments for the River Kings.
"It's the first time we've ever won our league, so that's something that everyone on this team should be proud about," said Cullis.
"Obviously when you win three games and lose one, it's a good week, we just lost the wrong one, for whatever reason it wasn't our best game and that's just the way it went," said Cullis, of the tournament.
Terrace's Chapen Leblond "had a good week, Ben Reinbolt had a good week, and our goalie [Patrick Leal] had a good week to name a few, and then (goalie) Josh Murray had a great game in the finals even though we lost."
Game one against Fort St. John jumped back and forth before being forced into overtime where Chapen Leblond snuck one past the Flyers' goalie to get the 4-3 win.
And that OT moment must have sparked something in Leblond – game two against the Powell River Regals saw him score four goals in the second period to close the 3-0 deficit the Regals had gained in the first and ignite the Kings' momentum towards a 7-4 win.
Leblond was given the MVP in game two, with River Kings general manager Ray Hallock noting that goaltender Patrick Leal "stood on his head" that game and was well-deserving of MVP in game three, a 5-3 win over the hometown Fort Nelson Yeti – another game that saw the Kings climb back from a 3-0 hole after the first. That win gave the team a bye into the championship, and a day of rest on Friday.
But heading into the championship against the Flyers Saturday – who earned their spot with a 10-3 win over the Yeti in the semi-finals on Friday – the Kings knew they'd have a tough competitor.
"I can't say I'm not disappointed but I'm not disappointed in my guys or the level of play or their intensity," said Hallock.
"The reality is we still had the winning-est season in the history of the team. We only lost five games all year including in the league championships and the Coy Cup – we only lost one game in the Coy Cup, unfortunately it was the most important one."
And for the young team – there isn't a player over 30 – there are plenty of prime years left.
"We've got a great team. You can't expect them to be super in one year – you've got to build up over a few years and that's one of the things you can see that's an advantage some of these other teams have. They've got more veteran players that have played together longer," said Hallock. "I can't take anything away from these boys, I think they've done the city of Terrace proud.
"This is the best bunch of guys that I've seen in a long time," he said. "Nobody's blaming everybody, everybody's still teammates and friends, I'm sure that'll continue into next year."
"This team will be good for as long as these guys want to keep playing," said Cullis. "Hopefully we get another chance at it."
"Two years silver, three times lucky," added Hallock.

The malware, which was distributed through the update server for the Windows cleanup utility CCleaner, was apparently inserted by an attacker who compromised the software "supply chain" of Piriform, which was acquired by Avast in July. There have been more than 2 billion downloads of CCleaner worldwide, so the potential impact of the malware is huge.
