Years ago, in the post-Stonewall and pre-AIDS days, a group of gay men hung out with my partner Clarion and me in our home in Boston. We welcomed one or more friends at the dinner table several times a week. There, I served up my culinary inventions and Clarion shared theater and movie reviews and a steady flow of his tapes mixing the hottest new music with classic jazz and blues
So while Clarion provided the music to woo their latest beaus, I offered cooking lessons and recipes that were guaranteed man bait. Those cooking lessons eventually became a loose-leaf cook book I called "Pastache". The title of that book celebrated my favorite food , pasta, and how I always tried to cook it with panache.
In Kooking Kweer my audience is about the same as it was for "Pastache": LGBT people and friends who want some cooking advice and recipes that unleash the proven gay creative force I like to call
Google Says
noun: panache
flamboyant confidence of style or manner.
"He entertained Palm Springs society with great panache"
Is Google (whoever she is?) talking about Merv Griffin, the departed queen of Palm Springs? …. Perhaps.
In Kooking Kweer I hope to demonstrate that having "panache" doesn't require Merv's wealth or following the directives of celebrity chefs. It means being as creative as you can with what you have (aka afford) and being as bold as a drag queen sashaying down the street of Tea Party city in broad daylight.
Before I begin this journey allow a word about being inclusive. In the early days when gay became the preferred term for homosexual, being an outsider on the fringes of society "forced" us to welcome anyone into the queer fold. So in Kooking Kweer everyone is welcome to come to the table.
NEWBIES: people with little cooking experience who are willing to learn and grow. Newbies will find information about equipment and techniques as well as some basic recipes they will need to become "Penachers".
PENACHERS: people with cooking experience who want to be more adventurous in the kitchen. I will share recipes and techniques with them and encourage them to contribute their inventions in the spirit of panache and inclusion.
In many of the pages I will refer to you as KweerKooks and all the contibuting cooks will be known as KookingKweers. These titles of endearment are not gender specific or sexually preferenced. If you are offended you can always politely decline my invitation to join the party.
DISCLAIMER: I am a painter, not a chef. If my measuerments are off, blame it on the paint fumes or my age. You may see some of my paintings at www.PaulDavisJones.com

How To Install A Rain Shower Head: In The Ceiling & Wall-Mount
Table of Contents
What You'll Need To Install A Rain Shower Head
- Plumbers' tape
- 2 Towels
- Adjustable wrench, or pliers
- Allen wrench
- Tile caulk
- Ruler
What To Do BEFORE You Install
Consider hiring a licensed, professional plumber
For best results, its highly recommended that you hire a licensed professional plumber, to install your rain shower head.
This is especially true, when regarding ceiling rain shower heads, as their installation, in most cases, proves more difficult, when compared to wall-mount models.
Read your owner's manual
Make sure you read your owner's manual carefully, making sure you have all the parts you need, before you start the installation process.
Remember, each rain shower head's installation instructions will be slightly different, model to model, so its key to follow your unit's exact instructions.
Check your shower valve
Most rain shower heads require a compatible shower valve, to ensure proper use. For example, a rain shower head may need: "an automatic compensating valve," rated at 2 GPM, or less, from a specific manufacturer.
Furthermore, to prevent scalding injury, make sure your shower mixing valve has a maximum output temperature, that doesn't exceed 120 degrees F (for USA), or 112 degrees F (for MA). For more details on this, check out this article, from PHCPPROS.
This should go without saying, but just for good measure, remember to only shower at temperatures that are safe, and that you are comfortable with, to prevent potential injuries.
How To Install A Ceiling-Mounted Rain Shower Head
- Lay down an old towel to cover your shower's drain (to prevent any parts/screws from falling down the drain)
- Unscrew / remove your old shower head, using your wrench, wrapped in your towel (to protect the finish)
- Install a properly anchored NPT ½ drop-eared ell
- Must have 2 ¾" (max) of space between finished wall, and ell
- Temporarily install your rain shower head's "mounting nipple"
- Once your "mounting nipple" is all the way screwed into your ell, using your ruler, mark points at ⅝" & 1" (both measured from the wall, going down)
- Once marked, remove your "mounting nipple" from the el
- Using your saw, carefully cut your "mounting nipple" at the 1" mark
- Wrap the base of your "mounting nipple" (part that will screw into your el) with plumbers tape
- Screw in your "mounting nipple" wrapped in plumbers tape, into your el, tightening with an allen wrench (usually, some models are screwed in by hand)
- CAUTION IMPORTANT STEP: Using your waterproof tile caulk, seal your ceiling around the screwed in "mounting nipple"
- Failure to caulk properly, can result in potential water damage
- Now that your "mounting nipple" is screwed in properly, and sealed with your tile caulk, wrap the exposed threads with plumbers tape
- Then, get your base of your rain shower head (usually looks like a circle, or square washer), and slide it on your "mounting nipple," so it sits flush with your ceiling
- Once you've slid on your base, screw in your shower arm to your "mounting nipple" (usually using an allen wrench, some models can be screwed in by hand)
- Optional Step: Some rain shower head models have shower arms that can be "stacked," or in other words, connected in series. So, if you have a rain shower model that supports "stacked" shower arms, now is the time to install them
- Finally, now that your shower arm(s) are properly screwed in, you can screw in your rain shower head, and you're done
How To Install A Wall-Mounted Rain Shower Head
- Lay down an old towel to cover your shower's drain (to prevent any parts/screws from falling down the drain)
- Remove your old shower head, using your wrench, wrapped in your towel (to protect the finish)
- Install a NPT ½ male nipple, or "mounting nipple," that extends ⅝" from your finished wall
- Slide on the base of your shower arm (comes with your shower arm kit), that will eventually sit flush with your wall
- Wrap your exposed "mounting nipple" with plumbers' tape
- CAUTION IMPORTANT STEP: Using your waterproof tile caulk, carefully seal your wall around the screwed in "mounting nipple"
- Failure to caulk properly, can result in potential water damage
- Screw in your shower arm, with base attached, to your exposed "mounting nipple" that's wrapped in plumbers tape, and sealed tightly with your caulk
- Once your shower arm is properly screwed in, slide your base until it sits flush with your finished wall
- Lastly, screw in your wall-mounted rain shower head, into your properly mounted shower arm, and you're done
You've successfully completed your research for installing rain shower heads, both in the ceiling, and in the wall.
For another reminder, please remember to follow your rain shower head manufacturer's instructions exactly, to ensure proper installation. Hiring a licensed professional plumber is highly recommended.

Features September 2018 Issue
Your Heart Is Your Responsibility
Your doctor can only suggest ways to lower your risk of heart attack and stroke. It�s up to you to act on the advice.
If you have risk factors for cardiovascular disease, or have been diagnosed with heart or vascular disease, what are you doing to lessen the likelihood you will suffer a heart attack or stroke? Are you eating a heart-healthy diet and exercising? Keeping your blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol levels under control? Have you tossed your cigarettes to the�curb?
Many Americans find this too much trouble. Why bother, they say, when a pill will fix everything?
Doctors have a hard time understanding this rationale, particularly when the risk of a cardiovascular event is high.
"It's frustrating when you see patients with heart disease who don't want to control their risk factors." says Cleveland Clinic preventive cardiologist Leslie Cho,�MD.
She cites patients with high cholesterol who refuse to watch their diet because they know other people who eat anything they want and have normal cholesterol. Or those who continue smoking after undergoing coronary artery bypass�surgery.
"They are playing with fire," she says.
What Will You Do For a Longer Life?
High blood pressure is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. It's easy to ignore, since it rarely causes symptoms. This is a common reason why many people resist taking steps to lower their blood�pressure.
In a study presented at an American Heart Association meeting in April, the vast majority of participants said they'd be willing to take a pill or drink a cup of tea to lower their blood pressure if it meant adding years to their life. Far fewer said they'd be willing to�exercise.
"So much disease can be effectively treated with lifestyle modifications, such as walking more, eating less and not smoking," says Dr. Cho. "We have become too reliant on taking a pill to make the problem disappear. Medications should be a supplement to—not a substitute for—lifestyle changes," she�says.
Why You Should Care
Despite evidence that taking steps to lower your risk of heart attack and stroke increases the likelihood you will live longer, there are many reasons why we don't comply with recommendations. These include denial, laziness, resentment and a propensity for failing to understand the implications of our actions or lack of action. All are human nature, but all are�excuses.
"The answer is that your body is different from someone else's body. You need to take ownership of your own health," says Dr. Cho.
The blood pressure study mentioned earlier was encouraging in that people said they would be more willing to exercise the longer it would help them live. But length of life is only one factor to consider. Quality of life is also important.
"Risk-reduction efforts and medications can help you enjoy a better quality of life in your remaining years by reducing your risk of cancer and dementia, as well as heart attack and stroke," says Dr.�Cho.
"You have only one body. Every day you make choices that affect it. How you choose to live with your body is up to you."

Some questions on windows 7 release
I am a little confused about a couple thing when 7 is released and I hope you folks can help me out. I hope this is the right place to pose these questions and I hope they haven't been asked and answered before. so here we go:
Can I use the W7 upgrade disc to go from WXP Pro to W7 Home or does it have to be Pro to Pro? ( I know it will require a clean install)
If I do this I know it'll need my XP disc, no problem I have the Dell OEM that has it on there, will this kill my key as to not be able to use this disc again should I decide to go duel boot or revert (incase my home recording software doesn't like W7 Home)?
That is all I got right now. Thanks again all
|My System Specs
|12 Aug 2009
Windows 7
First question would be how do you have the Dell OEM?
As for your other questions, if you do a clean install, and use a new partition, then you can install any version of Windows 7 you have.
If you want a dual boot system then make sure that your XP partition is already installed as it is bloody difficult to create an XP partition after the W7 install
|My System Specs
|12 Aug 2009
Perhaps OEM is the wrong term here It is the green labled Dell XP pro SP2 disc. I am not sure what you call them (recovery maybe) All I know is the ones that came with my wife's Dell were Blue and the one that came with our laptop was blue as well. However the one I got with my Optiplex is Green and it has never asked for the product key on the numerous Clean Installs I have done on this machine over the years. Sorry if I used the wrong terminology. Here is the disc I have:
So If I understand you correctly I can buy the upgrade to W7 home and have no trouble using my XP Pro disc to verify I have a legal copy? I can also use this disc down the road if I need to go back to XP?
I know, I'm a little slow
Edit: Still not sure if this disc is truly "recovery" It does perform a complete fresh install of XP.
|My System Specs
|12 Aug 2009
Win7 Pro 32-bit, Win8 Pro 32-bit
According to a recently published Windows 7 upgrade chart, there is no in-place upgrade from any version of XP, so it basically doesn't matter what version you have installed now. From what I recall, the in-place upgrades were only from Vista.
Also, from what I read, you will need your XP key, not the CD. That key should be on a sticker attached to the PC case somewhere.
If anyone KNOWS that this second part is not correct, please speak up -- as I have several XP systems I will be looking to "upgrade" too.
|My System Specs
|12 Aug 2009
Thanks for the reply Mark and Stranger, I know there is no in place upgrade, I have no problem doing a full install.
I have also read several different things about how you will need to upgrade. Some sites say you will need to pop in your XP disc to verify legality at some point during the upgrade, some say you have to start the upgrade from with in XP again so it can see your genuine. I am so confused right now I don't even know where to begin anymore :)
Edit:The other reason I need to know this is my wife's desktop also has the original Dell XP install and so that makes two pc's. I really don't want to buy 2 full install dics if that is the only way. I will buy two upgrades though if that is an option.
|My System Specs
|12 Aug 2009
sorry for double post
Ok got an answer from Microsoft:
The operating system from your recovery disk Windows XP or 2000 Professional must be installed to qualify to use the upgrade disk:
In summary:
1. A qualifying Windows operating system must be installed.
2. The qualifying Windows operating system must have a genuine license (product key) and it must be activated.
3. To upgrade, boot to the qualifying Windows desktop, insert the Windows 7 Upgrade disc in the DVD drive.
4. When the setup menu appears, select Custom (advanced) to initiate a clean install procedure
|My System Specs
|13 Aug 2009
Windows 7 Ult x64 - SP1/ Windows 8 Pro x64
OEMs, including Dell, keep the OS key stored on the hard dive. The OS is tied to that computer. This is why when you re-install an OEM OS with an OEM disk it won't even ask for the key, it already has it.
Looks like you already found your answer.
As far as I understand it, with XP Pro (installed and activated) you can use the Win7 upgrade disk and do a clean install of Win7 Home Premium.
|My System Specs
|13 Aug 2009
Yeah that's what I understood as well. I thank all who tried to help and I hope this can help someone else. Now if only I could get October here faster :)
I don't know how to change this to solved, can someone help me with that plaese?!
Thanks again,
|My System Specs
|13 Aug 2009
win XP/Win7
That's helpful for me too, I have XP pro on a dell laptop, and Vista on a Lenovo laptop, I have contacted them to send me the disk. Dell is actually sending me one, Lenovo told me to burn it out of the Hard drive with the 'Create and rescue recovery media program" from the Lenovo Vantage recovery program.
I did read online that you could install the Retail windows7 upgrade over Windows7 RC without having to show a previous OS, the catch is, it's all good if you only use the "Repair system" action in the future, if you want to do a clean installation with Windows7 retail you will have to insert the disk from your licenced XP or vista to do the clean install.
Am I right, does anyone knows more or can verify this?

How to get Westbound: A Pioneer Adventure Time Extension, Quest Rewards and Earn Resources, Tips and Tricks
Westbound : A Pioneer Adventure is a new city building game designed for iOS and Android users. It is a game where you explore yourself and experience adventure by finding treasures, solving mysteries, discovering trails and your prime goal here is to create your own civilization. On this page, you're going to read on for some tips and tricks with strategy guide for Westbound: A Pioneer Adventure!
How to get Westbound: A Pioneer Adventure Time Extension, Quest Rewards and Earn Resources
Time Extension
As you start playing, you'll get to know that in this game there's too much to do and very less time to complete it. So to lessen the wait time we would suggest you to set the time a bit ahead on your phone and then return to your game. You can probably set it at about double the length of time it takes to complete the task because sometimes the server won't register the time that you set. Thus, you have to make sure about the time length and once when you're done you can go back to your game. And after collecting everything you will have to set the actual time through date and time menu and return back to the game, where you'll find everything as it is.
Quest Rewards
If you got nothing to do or are confused where to go next, the best thing you could do is run towards the quests at the left side of your screen and try to complete them. If you go for these quests you'll be earning the best rewards ever and they will also help you in farming for silver, pickaxes, gold and tonics. And if you want to earn these items for free, you can go to the in-app purchase store and from there pick the "EARN" option at the left, beside there will be a blank space for the four resources. Later if you complete the offers, an offer wall will pop up on your screen where you will earn free silver, pickaxes, gold or tonic, where you will have to choose any one.
Earning of Resources
There's one more way to earn these resources and that is through Tapjoy, all you got to do is go the the Tapjoy website. After you login and finish the search of the Westbound: A Pioneer Adventure, you'll find offers related to the game and you got to complete them (they are quite easy eg. downloading apps). And as all of these are free, you're going to earn a lots of resources.

Corbin Canyon in Topanga State Park is a hidden gem of the Santa Monica Mountains with beautiful scenery and low foot traffic, yet it's only minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Ventura Boulevard. The 2-mile (round-trip) out-and-back trail transports you to a wilderness retreat full of beautiful oak trees and lush flowers—and it provides a perfect excuse to make a stop at one of the San Fernando Valley's most legendary Mexican restaurants.
Entering the trail, you scoot past a chain-link fence and immediately notice the trailhead plaque mounted on a small boulder. As you continue meandering down the path, it begins to narrow. Amid all the dry brush, a patch of low white datura bloom along either side of the trail. You spy a ridge, known in Spanish as a cresta, off to your right.
As you reach what appears to be a fork in the road (at 0.7 mile in), peer closer and realize that only the path to the right continues on. You continue up the hill to your right. The light dims, the air cools, and you enter a tunnel of beautiful árboles de roble, oak trees. Your feet trot along the soft cushion of leaves. As you reach the top of the hill, you reach another junction and continue straight.
Entering a patch of shade, you notice a dry creek bed to your left and in it lies a toppled-over car covered in rust—remnants of a mysterious Valley past! Strolling along the path, careful not to brush the roble venenoso, poison oak, you reach a magnificent oak tree. You climb into it to pause and appreciate the silence. Besides the scurry of a few lizards and the sound of the light breeze combing through the leaves, it is utterly quiet.
Comer y Beber: After your hike, you'll be glad you're so near Ventura Boulevard. Now it's time to head to family-owned and operated Sol y Luna, only a few minutes down the boulevard. They have a live guitarist after 5 p.m. every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
To reach the trailhead from US-101 in the San Fernando Valley, exit Winnetka Ave. south. Take Winnetka to Wells Dr. and turn left. Make a right onto Corbin Ave. and continue up until you reach a chain-link fence where the hike begins. Street parking available. No dogs.

Selectively melting powdered material with a focused energy source - a laser or electron beam. This is the most accurate of metal printing technologies before post-processing, allowing tolerances potentially tighter than .005". Powder Bed Fusion technology also offers tremendous geometric flexibility, including the ability to fabricate "no assembly required" parts with "captured" sub-assemblies that are held in place by unmelted powder until it is removed in post-processing. It is generally best for parts under a 10" in the X, Y, or Z dimension, although sizes up to 14" in a given dimension are possible for select materials.
The process of spraying an adhesive binder onto powdered material to build up a part, sintering the part in a furnace, and infiltrating that "green" part with a lower melting temperature metal. Binder Jetting with Metal Infiltration is most commonly done with a stainless steel matrix infiltrated with bronze (see picture above). Very cost effective but not as high accuracy (tolerances on the order of 1%-3%), Binder Jetting with Metal Infiltration is a great option for complex, traditionally cast geometries (e.g., jewelry).
Jetting powdered metal into a melt pool created by a focused energy source. Directed Energy Deposition is a very fast process relative to other technologies, with a rapid deposition and melting rate. The tradeoff is lower as-built tolerances; design files should typically be provided assuming a 200 micron overbuild to be removed in post-processing. Because it does not operate as a powder bed, Directed Energy Deposition (DED) is ideal for part repair applications and adding features to existing parts. Additionally, its faster deposition rate makes it a viable option for ground-up building of larger parts, up to 7 feet in a single dimension.
Sheet Lamination involves laying down sheets of metal foil on top of one another, using vibration and tremendous weight to create a bond between the layers, then cutting away excess material. This metal 3D Printing process does not require heat, making it uniquely suited for embedded sensors. Additionally, because foil sheets can be readily traded in and out during the fabrication process, dissimilar laminates can be used, making it an intriguing fabrication option for heat exchanger parts.
Metal Extrusion involves a heated nozzle processing metal beads housed in a polymer jacket. The nozzle melts the polymer jacket just enough to lay the material down on the build platform, layer by layer. The "green" parts are then placed in a furnace where the polymer material burns off, leaving a ~95%-97% dense sintered metal part.
This process is slated to be introduced to commercial markets and offered by 3Diligent in early 2018.
Similar to Binder Jetting with Metal Infusion, this process involves spraying an adhesive binder onto powdered metal beads, layer-by-layer, to build up a part. Once the "green" part is built, the part is placed into a furnace where the adhesive is burned off, leaving a dense part. This process is best for smaller parts, as shrinkage of the green part in post-processing creates challenges with larger geometries.
This Metal Printing process will be offered by 3Diligent in early 2018.

On September 12, 2018 the Belarusian State Medical University was visited by delegates of the XXXI International Congress of the Association of Space Flight Participants held for the first time in the Republic of Belarus. The meeting took place in the conference hall of the laboratory building.
German astronaut researcher Reinhold Ewald, who flew to the space station Mir with Soyuz TM-25, spending 20 days
in space and the Dutch astronaut André Kuipers, who took two flights lasting more than 200 days, spoke to the students and university staff.
During the speech astronauts told about the physiological processes taking place in the conditions of gravitation, adaptation to weightlessness, shared the experience of space flights and technical information on scientific research.
In addition, they emphasized the need to develop a sense of responsibility for our planet, a non-indifferent attitude to environmental problems and the use of outer space for peaceful purposes. In support of the ecological project "Windows on Earth", astronauts showed photos of our planet from the space.

Dusty My First Barrel Horse
I've told quite a few stories about Dusty and I'm sure by now you've got a pretty good understanding of our struggles when it came to running. He wasn't a huge horse but when it came to speed he had a fire in him like none other. Helping him channel that racing spirit was always my challenge. Barrel racing was a perfect sport to help us work on these challenges. The first barrel was always our biggest struggle, if I could keep him under control through that first turn, he usually figured out and if we blew the first one, chances are the rest of the race was disastrous. Part of the problem was he was usually teetering on the edge before we even entered the arena, prancing, rearing, spinning, fighting, and all prior to even starting the race.
One of my most memorable barrel racing experiences with Dusty was a learning event, one which I will remember always. I received some advice from a long time friend and barrel racing competitor. The advice was regarding conditioning and it was good sound advice. The message was simple, like all athletes, performance horses need extra energy. My mentor suggested I start feeding a grain mixture with a multi vitamin supplement regularly to increase Dusty's stamina. Taking this advice, I started feeding a sweet feed mix of grains, corn, molasses, etc. and included a multi vitamin supplement. As suggested, I started off with smaller doses and increased it leading up to the racing season. The intent of this new program was to continue feeding this larger amount through the entire racing season but as my story goes, I decided against it. When I first started this new regime I noticed a change in Dusty, he seemed even more edgy than normal and it was harder to get him to do things like stand still. He never liked to stand anyways but now it seemed even harder. It was always hard to get him to just walk when we went for a ride but now it seemed impossible. What I didn't realize was the grain mixture was having an almost adverse effect on him. Looking back now I realize it was like giving a hyperactive child candy, this was not the case for all the horses in my life but for Dusty this mix in this situation, really wasn't my best choice.
When Dusty and I finally competed for the first time after starting this new grain program, it was nothing shy of disastrous. I don't even think he saw the first barrel and on the run home I couldn't stop him. I can remember seeing only the whites in his eyes as I was pulling and the next thing I remember we crashed into the fence. Neither of us was hurt which is good but it was a learning lesson. From that day on we went back to our old feeding program and grain was given more as a treat in small doses. We competed for several years but Dusty struggled with bronchitis and eventually we reached a point where the vet recommended he not race any more. It was sad to retire Dusty but as my Nan would say, it's an ill wind that doesn't blow some good and if we wouldn't have retired Dusty than Duke would have never come into my life but that's a story for another day.

Economic and Social Exchange in Renaissance Florence
By John F. Padgett and Paul D. McLean
Published Online, 2002
Abstract: The commercial credit system, through which the Renaissance Florentines dominated European international finance, emerged out of their particular social-network structures of family, neighborhood, and social class, with double-entry accounting providing the technical tool to increase the volume of "friends" with whom Florentines could reciprocate. Blending historically inherited logics of economic and social exchange was central to the Florentines' generative capacity to make credit and liquidity, which in turn helped Europe to expand through trade. Judging from data from the 1427 catasto, the particular network innovation achieved in Florence was this: economic partnership modeled on elite marriage (hence across neighborhood, within social class) was cross-cut with commercial credit modeled on clientage (hence within neighborhood, across social class). This social framework for economic markets emerged as an unintended byproduct of the political process of repressing the Ciompi rebellion of wool workers in 1378, which transformed the guild system. Through multiple-network rewiring, new cross-industry organizational forms were created. These concentrated economic wealth into the hands of a new style of generalist or "Renaissance man" elite, but they also actively sponsored new industries and new citizens. In Renaissance Florence, constructing political elites and constructing financial markets were two sides of the same co-evolutionary process of making new organizations, new markets, and new people.

Hi, we know players have not been credited for the Daily Break from 2/25, and are looking in to it. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to have news soon. Thank you for your patience.
14 thoughts on "Daily Break Credit Issue for 2/25"
Thank you for posting this Angel because i was going to write player services and ask why, but couldn't remember what the Daily Break was yesterday. I do know it states credit will happen within 48 hours, so thought i was going to have to wait before i contacted them.
48 hours later and I wasn't credited for the 2/19 DailyBreak . . . contacted Player Services and received note there was a delay for crediting that day . . . received credit yesterday. I have faith! 🙂
I had contacted Player Services on this. Should all parties contact Player Services for a resolution? Or will GSN sort this out and reward the 75 oodles accordingly? Thanks,
Not to mention the fine print that crediting "should" occur within 48 hours, so no one should be contacting Player Services for a Daily Break issue until the third day after it was completed. . . . And with the blog notice for this particular day, a longer wait period should be anticipated. Thanks Angel!
Hi Angel,
I did receive credit for the Daily Break on 2-25!
I did notice however, that on the My GSN page a small box appeared with a promo code tag next to it. Any idea what this is? Thank you, Peter
Take note of the date of the Daily Break. . . . The crediting for DB2/25 normally would've occurred this morning around 5amEST, so if you're referencing a credit you received yesterday ("on" 2/25, as you mentioned) it should be the credit for DB2/24. . . .
Thnx! Got my oodles, so it's fixed now.
Would like to know what is going on with Wheel of Fortune game. Yesterday I had over a million and a half tokens and played down to 250,000 tokens with only 1 wheel spin and 2 free spins of which gave me 600 tokens. I enjoy the game but if you are going to run my score down to where you want me to buy tokens you have another quess coming as I will get out of this site and let all my friends that play what is going to happen to them before they get hooked.
I forgot to say that I was only playing 3000 and 7500 tokens.

Top 10 Asthma Natural Home Remedies
2 May 2019
Top 10 Asthma Natural Home Remedies
How can Asthma be Managed Naturally?
- 1. Ginger
- 2. Mustard Oil
- 3. Garlic
- 4. Coffee
- 5. Honey
- 6. Onions
- 7. Lemons
- 8. Lavender Oil
- 9. Tea Tree Oil
- 10. Oregano Oil
1. Ginger
Ginger is a well-known natural treatment for various conditions including asthma. Research suggests that it can help reduce airway inflammation and inhibit airway contraction.
• Mix equal quantities of ginger juice, pomegranate juice and honey.
• Consume one tablespoon of this mixture two or three times a day.
• Alternatively you can mix one teaspoon of ground ginger in one and a half cups of water and take one tablespoon of this mixture at bedtime.
• Cut one inch of ginger into small pieces.
• Add it to a pot of boiling water.
• Let it steep for 5 minutes
• Allow it to cool down and then drink it.
• You can also eat raw ginger mixed with some salt.
2. Mustard Oil
When having an asthma attack, massaging with mustard oil can help clear the respiratory passages and restore normal breathing.
• Heat some mustard oil with a pan.
• Transfer it in a bowl.
• When it is comfortably warm, gently rub it on the chest and upper back and massage.
• Repeat this several times a day until asthma symptoms disappear.
3. Garlic
Garlic can help clear congestion in your lungs during the early stages of asthma.
• Boil two or three cloves in one quarter cup of milk.
• Allow it to cool to room temperature and then drink it.
4. Coffee
The caffeine in regular coffee can help control asthma attacks because it acts as a bronchodilator. Hot coffee helps relax and clear the airways to help you breathe easier. Do not use caffeine as a regular treatment if you are considering this as a home remedy.
5. Honey
Honey is one of the most natural cures for asthma. The active ingredients in honey help to reduce asthma symptoms.
• Just inhaling the smell of honey produces positive results for some people.
• You can also mix one teaspoon of honey into a glass of hot water and drink it slowly about three times a day.
• Before going to bed, swallow one teaspoon of honey with one half teaspoon of cinnamon powder. This will allow you to sleep better and reduce asthma symptoms overnight/ morning.
6. Onions
Onions have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce constriction of the airways when suffering from asthma. Also, the sulphur content in onions helps decrease lung inflammation. Simply eat raw or cooked onions to clear your air passage ways for better breathing.
7. Lemons
People with asthma often have low levels of vitamin C. Lemons are rich in vitamins and antioxidants that can help to reduce asthma symptoms. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon in a glass of water and add some sugar according to your taste. Drink this regularly to avoid asthma attacks. You can also drink lemon juice.
8. Lavender Oil
Lavender oil has been shown to inhibit the inflammation of the airways and control mucus production. It soothes the air passages and strengthens the immune system. You will need 5-6 drops of lavender oil and a bowl of hot water. Add lavender oil to the bowl of hot water and inhale the steam for 5-10 minutes. Repeat this once every day.
9. Tea Tree Oil
The properties of tea tree oil function in relieving the wheezing and coughing associated with asthma and the excessive mucus. The essential oil also contains anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which will help reduce the inflammation in the airways and treat any infections that are present in the respiratory system. You will need a few drops of tea tree oil, face cloth and warm water.
• Dip the face cloth into the warm water completely and then wing out the excess.
• Pour the tea tree oil on this damp cloth and inhale it until the cloth comes back to room temperature.
10. Oregano Oil
Oregano oil cleanses the lungs and the air passages. It thins the mucus and eliminates infection causing bacteria and viruses. You will need a few drops of oregano oil and essential oil diffuser.
• Put the essential oil in the diffuser and inhale it. Let the diffuser use up all the oil.
• Use this remedy at least once every day until asthma symptoms improve.
If you are experiencing symptoms of asthma then feel free to fill out our free online asthma diagnostic consultation.

Montserrat Adventure Activities Travel Guide
On this Montserrat adventure activities travel guide page – read a brief destination intro, why visit & attractions not to miss…
OR jump to Montserrat adventures, activities, wildlife, carnivals & more
Will this Caribbean destination suit the adventurer in you?
This Montserrat Adventure Activities Travel Guide is essential reading for anyone planning to visit the country. We hope it will help you decide if this destination suits the adventurer in you.
Montserrat in a nutshell
A Caribbean island with an Irish heritage, verdant valleys and rainforests, Montserrat offers visitors to the island a unique tropical experience… plus a famous grumbling volcano – Soufriere Hills Volcano. Montserrat is located approximately 27 miles south west from Antigua and is around 40 square miles in size. The lush island has a volcanic mountainous spine from where, at varying points, there are far-reaching views to neighbouring islands – Nevis and St Kitts, Redonda, Guadeloupe and Antigua. The north of the island is verdant and typically Caribbean in character. The other half of the island is unlikely to be habitable for some years due to catastropic volcanic eruptions in 1995 and 1997. The volcano is still active and does suffer hiccups periodically, but is one of the most closely-monitored volcanoes in the world. The Montserrat Volcano Observatory (MVO) adopted a Hazard Level System in 2008 to keep residents up to date with grumblings and threats.
Why visit Montserrat
Unspoiled by mass tourism, and a welcoming island, Montserrat offers a unique adventure vacation in the Caribbean and, for keen hikers, many serious hiking trails. There's no doubt that the best way of exploring Montserrat is on foot; there are lots of hiking trails with the opportunity of seeing some of Montserrat's fascinating birds and wildlife, as well as spectacular views.
While you're in Montserrat
… take a peek at the deep ravines called ghauts (pronounced guts) that carry rainwater from mountain to sea, and the views of the volcano from Jack Boy Hill. Even more interesting go to the Montserrat volcano monitoring observatory in Flemmings, you'll find lots of interesting information on the volcano and seismic activity monitoring techniques, and see some dramatic videos. There is a great viewing platform there too, with a telescope, from which visitors have a wonderful view of the countryside as well as Soufriere Hills Volcano. Worth taking your own binoculars too.

First Look: With New GeForce GTX, Lenovo Launches Budget IdeaPad L340 Gaming Laptop
Lenovo has unveiled an all-new budget laptop with Nvidia's latest hardware and a very appealing pric
While Lenovo has its dedicated gaming laptop line, Legion, the IdeaPad series continues to offer new affordable gaming laptops of its own. This week, the PC giant unveiled the IdeaPad L340 Gaming, alongside some tweaks to its Legion lineup. While the Legion tweaks are to its existing models, centered around internal upgrades based on the newest Nvidia GTX and Intel 9th Generation Core parts, the IdeaPad is more interesting, as a totally new product.
The IdeaPad L340 Gaming is available at both 15- and 17-inch screen sizes, though the two are very similar. The 15-inch version starts at $869.99, an appealing price point, while the 17-inch model starts at $919.99. I got a chance to check out the smaller version in advance in a preview meeting; read on for more details and my impressions.

Triceps is a small muscle that is often relegated to the work of the biceps, the most visible muscle and the one we never forget. However, if we want to gain volume in the arms its strengthening and hypertrophy is key, so we leave the best triceps exercises you can do in the gym.
Wallpapers In Parallel
Among the most effective options to work triceps is this exercise that we can do between two benches: the classic dippings, or in parallel machine.
The funds in parallel are more unstable, the triceps must overcome the force of gravity and mobilize all the weight of the body in a controlled way, so they are an intense and challenging choice for the chest muscles of the arms that will allow us to develop.
It is essential that the elbows are always flexed on the sides of the body, without separating from it to work specifically the triceps with the performance of this exercise.
French Press
This movement is done on a flat bench, with dumbbells or a bar between the hands.
Lying on your back, with your whole back resting on the bench, place your arms perpendicular to your torso and descend behind your head, flexing your elbows, the weight carried in your hands as if you were in the back of your head.
As in the previous exercise, in the French press it is essential to keep the elbows close to the head and not to open them to work mostly on the triceps.
Triceps Extensions on High Pulley
In high pulley machine we can make an extension of triceps, with handlebars as shown in Vitonica or with rope as you can see.
With this last option we can request in greater measure the external portion of the triceps or what is equal, the lateral one of the arm, of there that its work is of utility to gain volume in the superior extremities.
We can also make extensions of triceps in high pulley, with inverted grip, ie holding the handlebars so that the palms look up. With this exercise we also work on the triceps, forearms, allowing us to shape the arms as a whole.
Vertical Arm Extensions with Dumbbells
Arm extensions or triceps are a very frequent option for working this muscle, and in addition to the one suggested before it is performed on a pulley machine, we recommend this alternative of vertical arm extensions with dumbbells.
It is done alternately, so it is a one-sided movement in which each tricep works separately. It can be executed standing or sitting on a bench and the dumbbell held in one of the hands must descend behind the nape of the neck due to flexion of the arms.
Although it can also be done with both arms using dumbbells or a bar, we recommend doing it unilaterally and alternately to concentrate the effort on one of the triceps during its execution.
You know, if you want to gain volume in your arms, these are the best exercises for triceps that you can do in the gym and will help you see in your body the results you've always wanted.

Energy ClubNorthern Territory
Energy Club
Northern Territory
The Turnbull government's highly vaunted Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility program will be overhauled to "make it easier for projects to attract finance" from the fund.
With the NAIF having processed only one major project since its establishment in mid-2016, Resources Minister Matt Canavan will today announce changes in a move to "increase its flexibility and improve its potential" and accelerate investment in northern Australia.
Mr Canavan said the program had "proven more challenging than we thought".
"It's a challenging exercise. It's quite an innovative way of seeking finance for infrastructure," Mr Canavan said. "When you find that what you expected is not working as intended, you change tack ... and that's what we're doing with these changes."
The government will amend the investment mandate of the program, based on findings of an independent review of the facility by prominent business leader Tony Shepherd.
"Mr Shepherd consulted widely with NAIF, investors, project proponents and governments. He found the important need to develop the north still exists, but there have been challenges to making it happen," he said.
"The government shares this view and we are committed to developing industry and job opportunities in northern Australia.
"We will implement changes to the NAIF investment mandate recommended by the expert review, in response to a key finding that (it) is too restrictive."
Mr Canavan said he had been advised that a "number of existing proposals could be finalised because of these changes".
"I'm also hopeful that this can be a reset and relaunch that attracts new interest to look again at the NAIF for finance to develop the north,'' he said.
The program offers up to $5 billion over five years in concessional finance to "encourage and complement" private sector investment in northern Australia infrastructure, including developments in airports, communications, energy, ports, rail and water.
Its board last year made its first investment decision, indicating to the government it would offer financial assistance of about $16.8 million for the Onslow Marine Support Base Project in Western Australia.
Mr Canavan said the changes to the program's investment mandate would include the removal of the 50 per cent cap, increasing the amount of finance available to infrastructure projects by "allowing the NAIF to finance up to 100 per cent of a project's debt".
The change would avoid the federal government inheriting the majority of financial risk in a project.
"There are currently 17 projects in the due diligence and execution phases across all three northern jurisdictions. There are seven in the Northern Territory, five in Western Australia and five in Queensland,'' Mr Canavan said.
"There are 90 active inquiries in the pipeline. These are from diverse sectors including energy generation and gas pipelines, transport, tourism, agriculture, manufacturing, water infrastructure and communications."

In 2016 a small Cape Cod style home was given to Elements Theatre Company for the express purpose of renovation for use as a much needed rehearsal space. What became known as The Joppa Project was born and work began. The actors of the company themselves led the way and with the help of many volunteers and donors were able to create space for two large rehearsal rooms, a meeting/conference room, expansive back deck, small servicable kitchen, a laundry area and bathrooms. Soaring ceilings, Asian inspired architectural details and a stunning recycled birch wood floor tell the story of dedicated artists at work to create a building with an ambiance and beauty that nurtures the art of theater.
Today Joppa stands next to the Chapter House of the Community of Jesus, reflecting the exterior style and materials of surrounding structures, yet unique in its function and design. Within the walls Elements Theatre Company rehearses current productions, hones acting skills in workshops and welcomes visiting teachers and students for an annual Acting Intensive Retreat. The lower level rehearsal space is often alive as young people take part in acting classes and give impromptu performances for their instructors. A building can become much more than an architectural space when it houses the creative energy of the arts and Joppa fulfills this goal.
If you would like to come by for a tour, please give us a call at 508-247-3147. We'd be very grateful for your interest, help, and support.
Elements Theatre Company is committed to the diligent work required for excellence, bringing meaningful performances of theatre, both classical and non-classical, to life.
Thank you for believing in the transforming power of the Arts!

The shoes you wear with culottes have to be as womanly as possible. High heels are an excellent choice. But if you want to wear sneakers, make sure they aren't bulky.
If you've never tried culottes on before, choose the midcalf length. It's almost impossible to go wrong with it.
Buy A Pair Of White Culottes
One of the boldest and highly fashionable moves you can make is to buy a pair of white culottes. They can become an integral part of your most amazing outfits this summer. Light-colored culottes add lightness and fluffiness to your image.

Best Hair Dryers For Salon Like Blowout Review
(page 3 of 11)
2. Dyson Supersonic, $399
Don't let the price tag dissuade you. If you're serious about your style, then invest in a device that does everything better and faster. The Supersonic's propeller spins 110,000 times per minute, which yields supersonic speeds for fast drying. The first thing you'll notice about this blow dryer is how well its balanced weight distribution keeps it steady as you move it around your head, unlike top-heavy models. This Dyson invention which had everyone eye-rolling when it launched is super light, the air it blows is measured and controlled 20 times every second to control the temperature. A total joy to use, this hair dryer includes three attachments: a styling concentrator, a smoothing nozzle, and a diffuser. Sounds pretty standard, right? Except in the case of the Supersonic, they're all heat-proof and magnetically attached to the body. The Supersonic has intelligent heat control—meaning it doesn't go over 212 degrees Fahrenheit—which prevents hair damage. As I said, it's an investment, but not a penny wasted.

by Patrick Schroeder, Prepared Foods Category Manager
Our Delis, Bakeries, and Juice Bars move through thousands and thousands of pounds of food and gallons of drink every year. Most of this volume leaves our stores in boxes or cups made out of paper or plastic. We recognize the inherent problem with this: the food is consumed and serves to nourish you, the container turns into waste. We are always curious about how we can continue to make a difference with this dynamic. More than a few years ago, we transitioned all of our plastic Deli containers to ones made from 100% post-consumer recycled material produced by Placon in Fitchburg. We're pretty happy with Placon and their products. They've proven that they also want to continue to innovate in sustainable packaging. That said, we still transact in thousands of paper to-go boxes, soup and coffee cups that can't be fully recycled.
New Soup Containers & Coffee Cups
Recently, National Co+op Grocers, owners of the "Co+op" brand and a cooperative of grocery cooperatives, has worked to secure a new line of compostable and Co+op-branded paper products. Our hot soup and coffee cups will be traded out for new compostable ones from EcoProducts of Boulder, Colorado. EcoProducts manufactures these cups out of 100% renewable materials (they don't specify which) and lines them with corn-based plastics. They also exhibit their commitment to waste reduction in their manufacturing. Currently, they recycle or compost over 50% of their production waste. We are excited to help bring forth additional products from this forward-thinking company.
Compostable plastic cookie sleeves
In addition to the cups, we are also looking at sourcing some compostable plastic sleeves to package our larger cookies in. We have struggled to keep these cookies fresh and presentable for as long as we'd like. We make our cookies from scratch daily in our Production Kitchen. We have wanted to find a way to extend shelf-life, provide better movement tracking for each cookie, increase merchandising opportunities, and reduce breakage and cross contamination of the cookies sitting open in a self-serve bakery case. We think these sleeves will help us meet these goals.
Not a perfect solution
While all of these new packages present some potential for sustainability, they're still not a perfect solution. The compostability of these new cups and bags is contingent on being sent to a commercial composting facility. They won't break down in almost any other environment. Unfortunately, these facilities are still pretty rare. Locally, the Madison Streets Department is in the midst of its pilot Organics Collection project, but none of our stores are currently included in that program. We hope that the adoption of products like this by businesses like ours will continue to build the demand for commercial composting services so that we can complete the cycle of their use in a more responsible way.

I love her boobs though I've never seen em I've seen her great cleavage enough times and to this day she still gives me a hard on and she knows it. I've often masturbated to her thinking about fucking her tight teen pussy and her big tits.
And man I would love to cum all over her cute face.
I love to go over to her house when her mom was at work cause breezie was so use to me she would walk around her house in nothing but an undershirt and her sexy lil panties. There where times I just wanted to go up to her and pin her to small girl xx first time wall and have my way with her for teasing me so much.
on day the came in the living room in a sexy pair of green panties that where so tight I could make out her pussy lips. It gave a I hard-on like no other. She told me she was gonna take a shower then change I said okay. As she walked by me I grabbed her tight little ass and man did it feel nice. She just laughed and said boy you better stop before I hurt you!!! I just laughed and said you no you like it sweetie.
She smiled and said so. I said so go take a shower cause you killing me just standing there in those sexy panties.

> But, inspired by that message, couldn't MultiFieldQueryParser just be a > subclass of QueryParser that overrides getFieldQuery()? I wasn't sure that everything "went through" getFieldQuery(). If so, yes, that should work. In either case, I don't even think a subclass is necessary. Just have a different constructor for QueryParser that takes multiple default field names, and just add the behavior to QueryParser, keyed off that characteristic (more than one default field name).

About Virtual Wall Halo Kit
I tried the Roomba to clean my home, and it's never going to be the same
Comments about iRobot® Roomba® 606:
My cleaning lady's initial fascination at seeing her work done so effortlessly soon spiralled into nit-picking when she realised her job could be the next victim to automation. A proud smile flashed on her face as a clueless Roomba 606 swung to and fro, hitting the walls and struggling to reach difficult nooks and crannies— with its 33cmx9.5cm frame, bigger than an actual dinner plate, the device cannot make its way under small chairs or tricky corners. Full Story here - https://www.vogue.in/content/tried-roomba-clean-home-never-going/
Roomba 606: A pocket-friendly robot vacuum cleaner
The demand for robot vacuum cleaners is slowly rising in the market. However, despite promising portability, most of them cannot be carried around easily, not at least without a bag. iRobot has a solution to this issue - the Roomba 606 robot vacuum cleaner. It is retailed at a pocket-friendly price of Rs 19,990.

Roomba 606 - Pocket Robot Vacuum Cleaner
The Roomba 606 sports a disc-shaped design, which is claimed to help it reach under most furniture and other hard to reach areas. The user only needs to press the 'CLEAN' button and Roomba 606 starts its vacuum cleaning without the need for any programming. The cleaner sports a 3-Stage cleaning system with two multi-surface brushes and an Edge Sweeping Brush. It also features an auto-adjusting cleaning head, which can adjust its height when it makes the transition from floor to carpet and vice versa.

Something Different
My younger sister is a very talented paper crafter. She is also a wonderful artist. She talked me into trying this simple paper toile, this was admist my saying I dont think so, I wouldnt be very good at it etc etc. I duly cut out the pieces and started to shape them and place them. I found that I did really enjoy doing this (although I dont think anything will overtake my love of stamping). I must admit that I didnt think it would be as labour intensive as it was. I thought that I would share this just for something a little different, and to encourage others to try something that they are not familiar with - to step outside the square so to speak!
I hope you enjoyed seeing this 'creation' of mine. I think that I will probably stick to stamping and other forms of papercraft, as you really NEED A LOT OF PATIENCE to do paper toile and those of you out there that do this papercraft I tip my hat to you!
Till next time,
Bye for now and happy stampin'!

Compare Online Estate Agents19th January 2015
We selected the top fifteen online estate agents as they appear in a google search when you apply the search term "online estate agents". It should be noted that their are other online estate agents in the UK, some of which may appear in future results tables.
Having a quick look at all of the websites, it became clear that many of the agents advertised a low price, but then added additional charges for extras such as photographs, floor plans, sales progression, for sale boards etc… All of which we would consider to be part of a standard Estate Agency Service. So we set a minimum criteria for what we would deem to be the service expected by most vendors as an estate agency service. This way we could create a level playing field so the cost of each online estate agent could be compared.
As a minimum we would expect online estate agents to offer at least a home visit, price guide, photographs, floor plan, inclusion on Rightmove and Zoopla, a Rightmove Premium Display, for sale board, weekly performance update, arranging viewings, obtaining viewer feedback, negotiating offers, sales chasing and a personal account manager.
The results were very interesting and showed that turtlehomes.co.uk online estate agents are the best value offering all of the above for just £325+VAT. Surprisingly the most expensive agent charged £817+VAT for exactly the same level of service. Also other websites such as Selling Up rank us as among the best value online agents.
One of the agents had a strange way of charging in that they charge £35+VAT for each viewings. For our calculations we estimated that an average of six viewings would be required in order to secure a sale. In reality it is probably closer to ten. An interesting way of charging customers though, but surely it gives the agent and incentive to not sell the property!!
Please see full tables of results below to compare online estate agents. It shows you exactly the service that each agent offers. Blue entries indicate the services that are included, whereas the red entries show services that are not included, or are chargeable.
