Cara Cara Orange Salmon & Lentil Bowl
This delicious Cara Cara orange salmon and lentil bowl is an awesome, healthy weeknight meal. You're going to love how quick and easy it is to make. It's ready in 20 minutes and full of flavor.
What are Cara Cara oranges?
Have you ever tried Cara Cara oranges? They are absolutely delightful! They've got a gorgeous internal color (pinkish-orange) and they're sweeter and less acidic than a typical navel orange. Cara Cara oranges have the same external color and shape as navel oranges - most are grown in California and they're at their peak between December and April.
I also use Cara Cara oranges in this delicious panzanella recipe.
They pair so well with the creamy lentils and the bright green flavors of the chard. I love how fresh and healthy this dinner is. I crave meals like this during the winter. I've been on a lentil kick lately and I've really enjoyed adding them to salads or as sides with meals like this. They're filling, slow carbs - so while they satiate, they don't lead to a sugar crash.
I hope you enjoy this delicious and quick meal!
Cara Cara Orange Salmon & Lentil Bowl
This Cara Cara orange salmon & lentil bowl is a delicious, healthy, and easy meal!
- 2 (4 to 6 ounce) salmon fillets
- 3 Cara Cara oranges
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 bunch Swiss or rainbow chard
- 2 cups cooked brown or green lentils
- pinch of salt & pepper
- optional topping - microgreens
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Combine the juice of one Cara Cara orange, brown sugar, pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl and whisk to combine.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry. Drizzle half the orange juice mixture over the fillets, reserving the rest for later.
- Roast salmon for 6 to 8 minutes or until it easily flakes with a fork or reads 145 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and cook the chard until wilted. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Slice the remaining oranges into rounds. Place half the oranges, chard, lentils, and a salmon fillet on each plate. Drizzle with remaining orange juice. Serve immediately!

Fortuna Wines was started in 2011 by Miguel Posada and his family. Fortuna produces several wines from different regions and DO of Spain, with a focus on wines from indigenous varietals. With origins in Castilla y Leon, Alia's flagship wines are based on the famed Prieto Picudo varietal- a densely-clustered, blue-black grape that lends itself to rich, spicy well-structured wines.
The Wines
Alaia Verdejo (DO Rueda): lush and tropical with a rich mouthfeel balanced by bright acidity. A great match for shellfish ceviche, fresh tomato, or other sharp flavors.
Alaia Red "Marisa" (Prieto Picudo/Tempranillo): Deep and spicy, with rich mouthfeel, gentle tannins and cherry/plum fruit. Cold-macerated for around 10 days, then fermented and aged for several months in French oak.

A thin band of snow and sleet moved into North Texas Thursday but fell apart by the time it reached Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
A blue and pink line of snow and sleet formed near Jacksboro mid-Thursday afternoon and began moving east, fueled by wind gusts to 40 mph. As the line moved into the areas western counties, NBC 5 received reports of light snow and sleet -- though what was falling didn't last long.
A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY put into effect from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. was canceled early, at about 4:30 p.m. A WIND ADVISORY, however, remains in place until midnight.
Thursday's cold front sent temperatures tumbling from the 50s to the 30s and they're expected to continue falling overnight. Wind chills may dip into the teens before dawn.
Friday morning into the weekend looks quite cold. Early next week, we will be watching whether or not that cold air hangs around as moisture streams back into the area. That could mean the possibility of wintry precip early next week.

Hello! Why is the EU Commission not doing something? The Finnish boats are now helping the Estonians on "pro bono" basis, fair?
This article tells us about the one problem that should be addressed by the EU Environmantal commissioner and should be dealt with immediately. The problem is that Estonia is reluctant to establish an "Oil Protection Fund" to collect funds from the ships sailing in and out of Estonian harbours and/or waters. They look at this as a form of payment that will lessen their competition ability on the sea trade market.
I say: If we ( Finland and Estonia in this case ) are countries in the EU, the same laws has to be applied on both of us. If one country has cheaper rates on issues like this than its neighbours then someting is really wrong. It just cannot be like that.
The money collected into this fund is then used only to plan and buy equipment for fighting oil spills at sea. So I really hope that mr EU commissioner Stavros Dimas takes this issue seriously and does something about it!
As long as we dont have an EU based European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) base in Porvoo region and Tallinn region, the nations have to come up with the funding themselves to clean any oil spills there are. Now the Finnish government boats are in Estonian waters to try to clean up the oily mess in the ice, not that the Estonian authorities have asked for us to be there, because they dont have any money to pay for it, but because the Finnish government is really scared that the oil will move over into the Finnsih territorial waters and the archipelago, as the ice melts away and the prevailing winds in the spring are from south-west to south. Where is EMSA?
Who believes we can wait till 2011 as the authorities plan this ? See below!
Should we do something?

Stop the 485 Route Cancellation sign now
On Wednesday, February 9th, I was notified by another rider on the 485 that public hearings were being held concerning the alteration or cancellation of the 485 route. As a frequent rider of the 485, I was understandably concerned.
However, the information for these meetings was completely inaccessible. All of the notices posted on the buses were removed before I even heard about the changes, and there is no accessible information online. Furthermore, these meetings were supposedly held during the week. Most of the patrons of the 485 are either students or businesspeople, who cannot attend meetings during the week!
Metros business goals stated on their website include Maintain open lines of communication. In this case, Metro has completely failed. The only information I was able to get about the proposed route changes have been by word of mouth from bus drivers or other riders. The first bus driver I spoke to said that even she learned about the imminent cancellation from a rider, not Metro!
What is most concerning is that this has happened before. In the case of the 256, there was a big protest to keep the route unchanged. It is understandable that Metro wants to put more money into new projects and the rail system, but the cannot ignore the people who depend on the buses every day.
If Metro is considering changing bus routes, it should make the proposed changes clear and accessible and make the effort to gain rider input. Signatories: Please comment on how you depend on the 485 and let Metro know that it cannot ignore the needs of its patrons.

U.S. Silica launches BEACH WHITE Volleyball Sands to support popular sport
FREDERICK, Md. (June 29, 2011) – Leading sand producer U.S. Silica and the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA), through a partnership, have worked cooperatively with the NCAA to developed the recently published official guidelines for Division I and Division II Women's Sand Volleyball, the newest collegiate sport to be approved by the NCAA. With the first varsity season in women's sand volleyball to begin in the spring of 2012, the AVCA enlisted the assistance of U.S. Silica to research optimal sand characteristics and develop guidelines for volleyball sand court construction. An emerging sport, participation in sand or beach volleyball has grown by over 25 percent in the last two years and more than 300,000 girls under the age of 18 are participating in the sand sport (according to the 2009 Sporting Goods Manufacturing Association's research).
After many user interviews, site and sand evaluations, the guidelines were created to ensure the construction of exemplary sand volleyball courts throughout the country with consistent and similar characteristics. In accordance with the NCAA rules, there are several factors schools and universities must consider when selecting the right sand for a court. Sand should be clean, round to subangular in shape, and intermediate in size. For outdoor courts, the sand should drain adequately in event of inclement weather, a general parameter being within 30 minutes. Whiter sand is suggested for outdoor play as it reduces relative heat gain.
Following the guidelines, U.S. Silica has introduced BEACH WHITETM Volleyball Sands for sand volleyball court construction. These sands are white, round to subangular, and of intermediate gradation, that have been washed and screened. They provide a playing surface that has less heat-gain potential than that of darker sands. BEACH WHITE Volleyball Sands provide sand firmness designed to offer both good jump height and landing cushion. It is recommended that the sand be slightly damp for play; however, in the event of rain, BEACH WHITE Volleyball Sands are designed to provide sufficient drainage.
U.S. Silica's BEACH WHITE Volleyball Sands are available at 10 locations throughout the United States.
"Having the expertise, resources and interest of U.S. Silica, a major American sand provider, is agreat asset for collegiate sand volleyball," said AVCA Executive Director Kathy DeBoer. "The company's sand experts spent a significant amount of time researching manmade sand courts in different parts of the country to formulate a sand mix that is functional for both training and competition, affordable for institutions, and weather-proof enough to allow for many years of use under different conditions. Further, to accommodate the anticipated growth of Sand Volleyball in cooler climates, U.S. Silica is also developing indoor sand products and guidelines."
U.S. Silica is a leading producer of high quality unground silica sand, ground and fine ground silica, calcined kaolin clay and aplite. Since 1893, U.S. Silica has developed more than 200 unique products and created a network of production plants and packaging facilities across the country, making procurement of the silica sand, ground and fine ground silica and other industrial minerals convenient and reliable.
For more information about U.S. Silica's BEACH WHITE Volleyball Sand, please contact Michael Barnett at (800)-257-7034 x119 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. Visit www.avca.org/sand/ for more information on NCAA sand volleyball.

text: Image Via HypeBeast REVIEW: Chief Keef x Two Zero One Seven Devin Nevett January 23, 2017 Music 784 Tweet Share Share Email WhatsAppShares 0At a show in late 2016 Chief Keef expressed the gripes he has with the new wave of hip –hop and he's tired. Tired of the flexing, tired of the fakes, and tired of the rap weirdos. He vowed for a comeback in 2017 and has stayed true to that promise. On January 1st the GBE head honcho returned to the scene with his mixtape Two Zero One Seven. Four years removed from his culture shifting album Finally Rich, Keef was quiet in 2016. In this tape he nostalgically looks back on his life since leaving the streets behind. His progression is very noticeable from his 2013 mixtapes Bang, Part 2 and Almighty So. He starts 2017 with 17 songs with 2 features from Tadoe and production from Lex Luger, Young Chop, LeekeLeek, and himself. When Keef first started producing I immediately thought, "Oh lord ANOTHER rapper stepping out of his element." So far, and especially on this tape, Sosa has been proving me wrong. His production growth is prominent on the tracks "Falling On The Floor," "Check," "Dope Smokes," and "Go." He's finding his production lane without sounding like other hardcore trap/street producers; his infectious hit "Faneto" already set the tone back in 2014. His new producer tag "Turbo" while surprising fits because of the energy his production brings. Bringing the same energy with rapping, he gives us a few anthems in the tracks, "Reefah," "Check," "Go," and "Dope Smokes." On "Reefah" and "Dope Smokes" Chief Keef reminds you to smoke up. Flashing back to when he was 16, before the rapping, Keef worked the block and apparently people forgot. "When I was 16, I was on the front wit a nina/ Up in the field while you was up in the bleachers." It's been a while since that time and he's had a ton of success and continues to flex since he's returned from being on tour. On "Check" Keef gives some motivation music and encourages listeners to "be all about ya check." He's starting extend his sound past street music pertaining to being active on the block. He's more centralized around stacking up money and living his life. Listen to Two Zero One Seven on Apple Music and determine whether you agree with our 8/10.

A.Fernandez Maduro
Since I discovered the Man O'War Ruination, I've been tracking down some of his other cigars which brings me to the A.Fernandez Maduro part of his Signature Series over at Cigars International.
Video runs around 13 minutes and I'll be adding the A.Fernandez Maduro to my list of budget cigars. Its not sophisticated nor does it have the level of richness that you will find in say, the CAO MX3, but factor in a price point of $2.50 – $3.00 and you get a solid simple maduro cigar that has a pretty amazing sweet spot.
CRA Ambassador Note
Another day goes by and another locality infringes on our rights. Read this awesome editorial by our great friend Skip Martin aka @ChiefHava and watch the two YouTube videos he links to and see just how quickly and without debate, a city council can screw us.
17 Comments
At the 5:43 mark you comment Blows its load and looked like you were about to give us a Thats what she said… just a chuckle and a snicker is all we get now. Those were the days my friend I thought they'd never end…
Hello. Do you ever review any good cigars on here? I have been looking hard and 99% of them are very bad smokes.
Dear roddy,
No, they never review good cigars on SR. Only crappy ones. All the good reviews of the great cigars like Black n Mild, White Owl Grape, and Phillies Blunts are reviewed over at quitbeingadouchebagfucktardandfuckoff.com.
Now I've been to that site but for some reason I like the reviews of the "bad smokes" that the guys at SR do. So maybe you should mosey on over to the quitbeingadouchebagfucktardandfuckoff.com. site and never come back here.
Oh and a good day to you sir.
I'm feelin exactly what Irish Mike said.
That was priceless, and spot on, LOL!!!
problem with the "Blows its load" comment is, well, everyone just think about INTO WHAT it did that 😉
Sounds great for the price point! I wonder how it would appeal to a non-maduro smoker like myself. I dont care for too many maduros at all, but for the price, I might have to give these a try.
Ahhh, the return of "Oui Parle Francais!" Nice review of a budget cigar. I know @KnightRid will pick some of these up between showers… What is the link for free shipping on CI, the one I was using no longer works.
Thanks for the review, O' Great Torpedo! 🙂
I need to check this one out, always like finding a decent budget smoke and I really enjoyed the Ruination as well.
Great Review
First time responder but long time watcher of your vid's o' great torpedo.
I rather fancy Maduros myself and i have to say your review is spot on. It is what it is s 3.00 Maduro, it starts off very sweet to me with as you said a little spicy tingly thing going on…..and the rest well i cant say it any better than you….Good job on the review…
By the way i watched you review of the el triunfador last night and was searching franticly to find some and well low and behold i found a place that has 3 boxes so i purchased one….202.00 i cant wait to try them i am a big fan of the lancero……The place still has 2 sealed boxes left…….if anybody is interested let me know………
I bow to the wit of Irish Mike. All hail the launch of that verbal torpedo!!!
Now I'm going to have to watch the video 🙂
Hi jerry great review you no ive been watching stogie review for a long time and never left a comment well heres the first o and i sent you the cigars 2 days ago they should arive soon hope u like what i sent dont forget to tell me when they arive and maybe do a review on one ok thanks
haha…Jerry I love your reviews, good or bad cigar!
Dear Irish Mike,
I think i love you.
Yeah, I think these smokes are decent and for the price you can't bitch too much. I will be buying more 5ers in the future.
Great video!! Looking forward to the #IPCPR coverage!!

Even if you chose to disconnect, it's not a crime! (Well, ok it might be coeisdnred one in edtechland, but it isn't really!). I was thinking about you last weekend while I was in PA with no internet access at all. I realized that though I cannot STAND to be disconnected when I am at home (the rare times when internet is out here, watch out for the mama bear!), I have no trouble being offline when away from home.When we went to Disney in January, I was offline for a week with no withdrawal symptoms. Last weekend, I was offline for 4 days. I will be offline for another week when I go to Boston for my sister's wedding in a few weeks.Maybe it's not an issue for me because I don't associate being away from home with being connected. My focus is usually on the unique experiences travel offers rather than on staying connected. Being away from home is like an online vacation.When we lost internet for two weeks at home, though, I was at the library every other day to check email and my networks. I even took my computer in the car and drive around to find an unsecured wireless network I could tap into! So I might not be as well adjusted as I thought I was at first. (-:

Yuck ! What you describe from Hershey Lodge is NOT a grlield cheese. It's an Apple Brie Sourdough sandwich.A grlield Cheese sandwich is what it is. People should feel free to eat any grlield sandwich they want but don't call it a Grilled Cheese in the historical sense.Would you take some chopped steak then add Cheddar or Brie, asparagus, red peppers and Oregano then call it a Philly Cheesesteak ? No you'd call it a Veggie Steak sandwich or something else. But you can't take a classic sandwich, switch all the ingredients and then sill call it that classic name !

Of course I arenewsd your nonsense bermiefluff. First I told you to stop thinking like a phony-British socialist and try to understand the basics of investing in a competitive environment, as in the case of major NCAA sports. I laid-out for you the positive progression of the 3-year ROI on 8/26 above feel free to take another go at it mate. As for RU football never winning anything gee, just a modicum of Google searching easily makes a mockery of that witless remark of yours: (ii) 2 Bowl wins in last 3 years (ii) top APR football rankings, and (iii) while 2010 was not a winning season, 2011 RU football recruiting ranked among the best in conference. And the Mike Rice investment has taken RU hoops out of the BE cellar in his first year, and very easily could've won two games in the BE tourney if the refs didn't blow the SJU game, which in turn would have put the team right on NIT bubble. It's about time you get your head out of the sand.As for the Bloomberg dweebs trying to write a sports story, it's obvious they should stick to their financial reporting where they do a good job quoting the real pros in the business, but look foolish in their own editorials. How idiotic to compare RU's 3-year investment in big-time sports to the 5 or 6 decades of investments made down at Univ of Texas—that doesn't even pass the laugh test. And heaven forbid the left-leaning big government-loving Bloomie organization take NJ politicians to task for all the cutbacks to state higher education spending at the expense of all the corruption and misspending, double and triple-dipping politician pensions, etc. etc. etc. Or what if Booberg writers had the guts to take on the bloated college administrations like the Wall Street Journal has? Come on, that article has already been proven to be useless. No one outside of Trenton takes its premise even half-seriously, and those corrupt politicians will only care if they can use the trash to divert more money out of the state university to their pet projects and line their own pockets. Man bermiefluff, your bizarre pathological hatred for RU really makes you sound ridiculously uninformed despite your use of the British thesaurus.

It seems that, for some designs, it can be placed per figure 8-5 to accomodate a ball height, but what about a robot that might not want to be that high? Would there be a possibility of a bumper placement some 5 inchs lower?

Al Qaeda, IM may target Nepali politicians: Delhi
New Delhi has warned Kathmandu that some 'prominent Nepali politicians' could be assassinated by al Qaeda and Indian Mujahideen operatives.world Updated: Oct 13, 2014 15:52 IST
New Delhi has warned Kathmandu that some 'prominent Nepali politicians' could be assassinated by al Qaeda and Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives.
A news report in 'The Annapurna Post' on Monday claims India's external affairs ministry sent a letter in this regard to the Nepal government on September 25 through its embassy in Kathmandu.
Based on intelligence from 'highly reliable sources' the letter also spoke of abduction threat to Indian diplomats in Nepal and possible hijacking of an Indian or Nepali aircraft flying out of Kathmandu.
"We have received written and verbal intimation in this regard from the Indian side and police and other security agencies have been alerted," the Nepali daily quoted an unnamed foreign ministry source.
The letter doesn't mention why Nepali politicians could be targeted or who could be under threat.
It adds some operatives of al Qaeda and IM may have already entered Nepal and could be hiding in the capital or neighbouring areas. There could also be a poisonous gas attack on common citizens, it said.
The warning has jolted administrative and security establishment here at a time when the Himalayan nation is busy planning next month's South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) summit.
The report adds India has asked Nepal for more security at its establishments in Kathmandu and other places and also for its diplomats based in the country.
Nepal's foreign ministry spokesperson Khaganath Adhikari claimed ignorance about the letter. "I have also read the news report. But I have no idea about any such letter," he said.
However, a senior diplomat in the Indian embassy confirmed that India has shared information of threats and security matters to Nepal both through notes and during discussions. He refused to divulge details.
Nepal has been a favourite hiding spot for terrorists and criminals from India. Last year Lashkar-e-Taiba operative Abdul Karim Tunda and IM founder Yasin Bhatkal and another associate were arrested here.
In 1999, Indian Airlines flight IC814 on way to New Delhi from Kathmandu was hijacked by Harkat-ul-Mujahideen operatives and taken to Afghanistan via Amritsar, Lahore and Dubai.

Greek Name: PRAXEIS APOSTOLON
Human Author: Luke
OT or NT: New Testament
Number of Chapters: 28
Basic Facts
- Acts [of the Apostles] is the forty-fourth book of the Bible.
- In terms of literary genre, Acts is classified as a book of history, though it could be classified as a letter written to Theophilus.
- Acts is the sequel to the two-part series known as Luke-Acts.
- The Greek name for the book of Acts is PRAXEIS APOSTOLON, which means "Acts of [the] Apostles" or "Deeds of [the] Apostles."
- The book of Acts uniquely tells the story of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit as foretold by Jesus.
Story of the Book
The Book of Acts begins with an introduction given by Luke to Theophilus, along with a brief account of the ascension of Jesus into heaven. Jesus tells His disciples that the Holy Spirit would soon come upon them. The disciples then cast lots and replace Judas Iscariot with a disciple named Matthias. Next, the Holy Spirit comes upon the apostles at Pentecost with tongues of fire, and Peter addresses a crowd proclaiming the event to be prophetic fulfillment. Luke then gives some details regarding the practices of the community of the early church including persecution, the solidarity of the community, healings, signs and wonders, and believers praying for boldness. The book continues with many other stories which detail the acts of the Apostles and the early church including for following:
- The testimony and martyrdom of Stephen
- Ananias and Saphira,
- The choosing of servers for the community
- Persecution under Saul
- Saul's conversion
- The vision of Peter
- The church of Antioch
- A meeting in Jerusalem
The rest of the book gives a detailed account of the missionary journeys of Paul and Barnabas to various places in the Roman empire stretching from Jerusalem to Rome as God commissions Paul as a missionary to the gentiles, and the gospel continues to expand throughout the known world.
Jesus Revealed in Acts
Jesus had promised His disciples that the Father would send another helper in Jesus' name who would teach them all things, namely the Holy Spirit (John 14:26). After the resurrection, Jesus promises His disciples that the Holy Spirit would come upon them and they would receive power to be His witnesses to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:7-9). In Acts, the Holy Spirit comes upon the disciples at Pentecost with tongues of fire and empowers them to fulfill their God-given mission to bring the gospel to the ends of the earth. In addition to this, Jesus appeared on the road to Damascus to a man named Saul (Acts 9:1-22). Saul was a Pharisee and a zealous persecutor of the church. After Jesus reveals Himself to Saul, Saul's heart is radically changed, and he begins to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ that he once tried to destroy (Galatians 1:23). Through the power of the Holy Spirit, Jesus' mission began to be carried out to the ends of the earth accompanied by signs, miracles, and visions and dreams of Jesus. The Holy Spirit's coming was a fulfillment of the words of the prophet Joel, who proclaimed that visions and dreams would accompany the Spirit of the LORD (Joel 2:28-32; Acts 2:14-24). In this way, Jesus has and continues to appear to people around the world, spreading the gospel message and proclaiming the good news of himself to the ends of the earth.

If you want to contact your respondents via email, you need to verify the email address or domain you plan to use as the sender email address. This is necessary to confirm that you control that address and therefore have the rights to send mail from it.
To add an email address, enter it in the box under "Add Email" and click "Add". This will send an automated email to the entered address, containing a verification link.
While verifying an email address will allow you to send emails, it's not the best possible solution, as emails will appear as sent "on behalf of" in email headers, rather than looking like they've been sent directly.
The "From" Field on email from an unverified domain will appear like this on some email clients:
"email@example.com; on behalf of John Smith <email@example.com>"
When the domain is verified, it will look like this:
"John Smith <firstname.lastname@example.com>"
For the most seamless experience, then it's also necessary to verify the domain that the emails will appear to originate from.
Verifying a domain consists of three steps, again with the aim of proving that you control that domain and can receive (and therefore send) email from it. If you're not sure about any of the following steps, then talk to your IT team or whoever looks after your website or domain – they will be able to do what's necessary. To start, add a domain by entering it in the text box and clicking "Add".
As with email addresses, the master account user can click a checkbox to allow all sub-accounts to use the domain, or leave it unchecked to have it only available to that account.
SPF (Sender Policy Framework) is a simple system to communicate to email servers that a server has permission to send email on behalf of a specified domain.
You must add the entire spf record and not the individual IP addresses and currently, this must be added to the root SPF record, not a sub-record.
DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) serves a similar function to SPF, but is a bit more complex, using an encrypted key. It is activated in the same way, by adding a TXT record to the domain.
Important: Because changes to domain records need to propagate across the internet, it may take up to 24 hours after making the TXT record changes for "Verify SPF" and "Verify DKIM" steps to come back with a positive result, even if everything's been set up correctly. In the event of a failed attempt, get the values checked, and if they're correct, try again in a few hours.
Once the domain is verified, all email addresses for that domain will be verified as well and you won't need to enter individual addresses for verification. Now you're set up, why not check out our guides to using the email tool?

John Ashbery was an American poet.He published more than twenty volumes of poetry and won nearly every major American award for poetry,including a Pulitzer Prize in 1976 for his collection Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror.Renowned for its postmodern complexity and opacity,Ashbery's work still proves controversial.
Ashbery stated that he wished his work to be accessible to as many people as possible and not to be a private dialogue with himself.At the same time,he once joked that some critics still view him as "a harebrained,homegrown surrealist whose poetry defies even the rules and logic of Surrealism".

We are excited to be partnering with Modern Woodmen Fraternal Financial as one of our sponsors for this year's Christmas gala! With representatives located across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, the members of Modern Woodmen are ready to serve you today.
Modern Woodmen is committed to helping its clients plan for all financial aspects of their future, from insurance and risk management to retirement planning, investment planning, and advanced estate and small-business planning. The organization focuses on achieving financial security in whatever way the client envisions it. In order to create your plan for financial security, Modern Woodmen takes four steps: defining your financial needs and goals, assessing your current financial situation, creating an affordable plan that will grow with you in the future, and implementing and adjusting your plan over time.
When we asked the DFW Managing Partner Tim Smith about Modern Woodmen's connection to community and philanthropy, his passion was clear. As a fraternal organization, Modern Woodmen is owned and controlled by its members instead of being publically traded or privately held, seeking only business profit. Tim explained that in order to demonstrate their commitment to these community purposes, "we do not conduct nation-wide advertising but instead invest nearly $40 million a year into local communities and organizations. We have partnered with local ISDs, city government, nonprofits, and individual community members in need." Recently, Modern Woodmen has worked closely with the Denton Police Department to raise nearly $30,000 over the last four years for their summer youth program geared towards at-risk students in Denton ISD middle and high schools.
Philanthropy has been part of Modern Woodmen's mission since the organization's inception 134 years ago. Tim told us that this is "something we hang our hat on as being part of our DNA instead of being a part of a marketing campaign." Tim continued, explaining that "As a fraternal organization, we give selflessly to others because we know that 'what we send into the lives of others will come back into our own' as our company creed states."
At Melody of Hope we are incredibly grateful for having the support of Modern Woodmen since our organization's founding. Modern Woodmen has attended every Melody of Hope Christmas gala, and has donated at least $2,000 each year. We are looking forward to showcasing this sponsor at the gala in just a few days, and we want to say a heartfelt "thank you" to Tim and his team for all they do.

Puesto Restaurant Review: Located a couple blocks down the road from the Irvine Spectrum, this OC iteration of the San Diego-based upscale taqueria is a refreshing respite from the perils of mall sprawl. The juxtaposition of colorful art accents and industrial earth tones creates an inviting space to chill at the bar and explore the deep roster of tequila and mezcal selections. Lucky diners can secure a sequestered table next to the kitchen, order a heaping helping of Parmigiano Reggiano-stuffed guacamole, and watch the line assemble a wide range of street tacos. These handhelds all feature scratch-made tortillas and are filled thick with items ranging from the expected chicken and al pastor to Maine lobster and filet mignon. Those not in the mood for tacos can indulge in traditionally-themed plates like filet mignon asada or deep-fried carnitas. Be sure to save room for the buñuelo bread pudding with Mexican chocolate gelato. Puesto's take on Taco Tuesday provides outstanding value considering the quality.

Rated 2 out of 5 by TD63 from Poor quality This is a really poor quality product. Very very thin material that would rip easily. I was really disappointed as Columbia products are normally well made. The tag says $60 ..they sold them for $20 ..I think they might be worth $10. They charge $6.00 for return.....?

Rated 5 out of 5 by JCFlo from Fits great! I would say the sizing is true to size. It's doesnt fit like most slim fit clothing nowadays. If you plan on wearing it as a shell not a windbreaker I would recommend depending on the thickness of your sweater underneath one size bigger for movement comfort.

I am size L in everything I use, so I ordered an L size (Viewing the size chart and confirming it should fit be alright) but it runs too big, so I recommend you to choose a smaller size of the one you pretend.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Summithero from More technical jacket than rain jacket Columbia should make it clear that this is more of technical jacket..like a biking jacket. It's very, very thin. If weight is an issue, like in biking, this is that kind of jacket. But for an everyday rain jacket, no. It has no pocket closures, no waist elastic or tightner and no hood adustment. It is bare bones. There is also no liner whatsever so no warmth. If you go hiking, it may be good as a layer. But it is also so thin, you may rip it very easily. Very disaapointed.

First thing I did was put it on and jumped in my shower to check the water resistance. It is VERY waterproof. I've seen some reviews that state it's not much of a windbreaker but I disagree completely. I took it fishing this weekend in some pretty heavy winds and I had no problems with only a T-shirt underneath, in 64 degree weather with some pretty strong wind gusts.

Rated 4 out of 5 by kupciher from Too small for Large, off the size chart It is a very nice, light, and foldable to almost nothing if you want to pack it in a carryon. The colors are spectacular and so is the tailoring. The problem is that it is way off the size chart. I usually order Large with Columbia and had no problems so far. This one, the zipper needs about 3" at the bottom to come together, although at chest level it would be okay if you could zip it up that far. Columbia ought to let this to be known before one orders and have to pay for the return shipping.

In conversation with Franchise India, Ashok Jain, Founder & CEO, Lifespan India shares how he supports people against diabetics.
Tell us in detail about your journey from inception till now?
The idea came when I was diagnosed with diabetes 22 years back. In 1995, I was pronounced a diabetic with a reading of 429 mg/dL. Eighteen years of struggle and discoveries inspired me with a vision of Lifespan Clinics which would cater to all diabetes management clinics to help and support people like me. My own trials with diabetes and those of my various family members made me grapple with the question on how a control over diabetes could be achieved. It culminated into Lifespan three years ago. Today, we have 33 clinics around the country, treated about 40,000 patients and every month, we come across about 4000 patients, of which 1500 are new.
What is unique about your services?
As a patient, Lifespan has a fairly professional environment with everything under one roof, right from diagnosis to speaking to a dietitian, educator, diabetologist. Lifespan also has anti-diabetic-customised food products available at the clinic. The convenience that you can reach out through emails or phone or any form of electronic consultation is another USP. The phlebotomist comes home to take patient's blood. So, life becomes easy and convenient for the patient. Diabetes is a hassle-some disease. So, we don't want that added hassle of waiting for a doctor, going to a diagnostic centre, finding products in another place etc.
What are the challenges in franchising that you want your investors to know?
The investors need to have patience to develop the business and ability to stabilise it.
What criteria do you follow for selecting franchisees on board?
What kind of training and support do you provide to your franchisees?
We appoint a corporate trainer who provides on-site training as well as a franchisee standardised manual to help resolve timely queries. We also hold regular Skype and online training and all franchisees are kept abreast with any upgradation in services. We also offer a technical team for any and all problems. We provide facilities for business support through print and digital medium, local activities with camps and health surveys.
Typically for an investor who is planning to invest in the diabetic centre, what are the factors that he/she should keep in mind?
Why did you choose the franchise route for your expansion?
What are your expansion plans?
Diabetes is an omnipresent disease in India and worldwide. 10 percent of Indians are diabetic, but 20 percent of Indians are pre-diabetic. This means one out of every three adult Indian has some stage of diabetes, which is huge. There is no other disease in terms of prevalence; therefore, you require a huge amount of effort to deal with this. Given the prevalence of diabetes, I want to open 2000 Lifespan clinics around India.

In a major setback for England's vice-captain Ben Stokes, the England Cricket Board (ECB) has said that the player will not travel with the England squad to Australia on October 28.
Earlier, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) had announced that Stokes and team-mate Alex Hales will not be considered for selection in the international matches until further notice.
The Test vice-captain, however, was named in the England's original Ashes squad, despite injuring his hand in the incident that led to his arrest in Bristol on suspicion of causing actual bodily harm. Hales was with Stokes at that time.
The 26-year-old Durham all-rounder was released without charge but remains under police investigation.
Reflecting on the decision to drop Stokes, Andrew Strauss, Director of England Cricket, said, "With the Ashes just around the corner, it's important to give the players, the coaching staff and supporters some clarity around a complex situation. This decision will help us in the weeks ahead and give every player and the whole England set-up the best chance to focus on the challenge ahead in Australia."
As a result, Steven Finn will step into the England squad for the full five-match Test series, ESPNcricinfo reported.
Although England are Ashes holders, they have lost two out of their past three tours Down Under by 0-5.
England will now be desperate to hit the ground running when the two sides meet at the Gabba in Brisbane on November 23.

Tuxedo - Thank You 7"
(Stones Throw, 2017)
This limited Record Store Day 2017 7" release would be right at home on either of Tuxedo's stellar modern boogie albums, Tuxedo and Tuxedo II.
Mayer Hawthorne and Jake One's collaboration may be better than anything the two have done individually. Tuxedo's soulful take on "boogie," the funky 80's version of disco that's just too good to be called "disco," might be better than any of the songs that they're clearly referencing.

Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Live Nation
Christina Aguilera had a very special guest join her on stage at her Tuesday night show in St. Louis, Mo.
While performing her hit "Beautiful" at the Peabody Opera House, the singer had her 4-year-old daughter, Summer Rain, sit beside her. Even though the five-time Grammy winner is used to performing in front of crowds, it looks like her little one had a bit of stage fright.
"Summer begs me to come out every night onstage!" the proud mama wrote alongside a video of their sweet mother-daughter moment. "And then gets shy...but loves it...she's taking it all in early..."
To make her daughter more at ease, Aguilera gently stroked her hair and held her close. She also invited the audience to sing along.
"Beautiful, Sum! You hear that?" Aguilera excitedly said as her youngest listened with protective headphones over her ears. "Aw, I love you guys."
At one point, Aguilera informed her little one the song was actually older than she was—two years, in fact.
"Summer, this was way before you were born," she said. "Mommy was wearing Chucks."
Watch the video to see the beautiful moment.

GT750 History
All the images and text on this page have been researched by Jarmo Haapamäki. His website www.suzukicycles.org is an invaluable resource to anyone wanting to know about Suzuki motorcycles.
Suzuki's 750cc water-cooled triple was launched in 1971 as their answer to the super bikes of the day, bikes like Honda CB750 and Triumph Bonneville. The GT750 was more a sports tourer (the GT standing for Grand Tourismo) and was, basically, a T500 with an extra cylinder and liquid cooling crafted on.
The GT750 was the first Japanese serial manufactured motorcycle with a liquid-cooled engine. It was a unique engine construction in its day and today considered one of the classic Suzukis, loved by its owners. Known as the Le Mans in America, it received soon a nickname Water Buffalo, and other nicknames in other countries. It was generally known as Kettle in Britain and Waterbottle in Australia.
Although smooth, quiet and comfortable, the GT750 was big and heavy. This huge, wide engined bike, which weighed in at 550 lbs, was about 30 lbs heavier than a Kawasaki Z1. The 739cc engine was an inline water-cooled triple with 70 x 64mm bore and stroke. The cylinder block was alloy with cast iron liners.
It had a five-speed gearbox and three into four exhaust. An unusual item in its day was the handlebar mounted choke lever.
The GT750 has apparently been sold in many countries all over the world looking virtually the same. However, the exhaust noise and pollution regulations are the reason why there are some differences in the engine performance. Also, there are more differences between countries. For instance, some model years dont have the grab rail behind the seat in some countries, when other countries may have it. And so on.
1972 Suzuki year code: J
The first model, the GT750J, had a double sided, twin-leading shoe, 200mm drum front brake. The rear was a 180mm drum. The bike came with fork gaiters as standard issue, painted radiator side covers and bulbous side panels emblazoned with Water Cooled GT750 badges, which only added to the bulk of the machine.
The Exhaust Coupler Tube System (ECTS) that connected the left and right side exhausts together claimed to boost the low torque had black end cones. Many owners reported that the Exhaust coupler started to leak after some time. The carburettors were 32mm Mikuni slide type. Power output was a claimed 67bhp at 6,500 rpm.
It was by no means a match for the super bikes against which it competed. Many testers were quite unexcited about this huge lumbering tourer and were not impressed by its performance. In tests it only made about 110 mph, but in fairness its high speed cruising was praised. However, in common with many todays retros, the riding position was too upright making the high-speed cruising unpleasant.
It didnt handle particularly well and the brakes were criticised (even then) for their lack of feel and sponginess. The 42-45 mpg fuel consumption was considered poor.
Although the general finish was good, the Achilles heel was the rust trap under the seat. The seat pan was already rusting badly on a test bike less than a year old. Restorers take note, if the seat base was corroding then, you can bet replacement seat bases are in short supply today.
The pre-launch models that were presented in motor shows around the world during 1971 were slightly different from the actual production models (see the pictures below), the most obvious difference being the different graphics on the tank.
Launched in Japan in September 1971.
Colours: Candy Lavender, Candy Yellow Ocher, Candy Jackal Blue.
Starting frame number: 10001.
GT 750 pre-launch version
GT 750 pre-launch version
1973 Suzuki year code: K
For 1973, the GT750K gained large amount of chrome plating. Previously painted radiator side covers were chromed, as was the chain guard on the last of the K models.
Two 295mm discs replaced the drum front brake. These, in typical seventies fashion, worked well in the dry but were hopeless in the wet. A common feature of the OE Bridgestone tyres fitted on the 18 and 19-inch wheels.
Presented in Japan in October 1972.
Colours: Blue/White, Gold.
Starting frame number: 31253.
1974 Suzuki year code: L
The 1974 GT750L had slimmer side panels that just read GT750. The Liquid Cooled badges were moved to the side of the cylinder barrel. Carburettors changed to 40mm Mikuni CV type and the air cleaner polyurethane instead of paper. The forks lost their gaiters.
The air box had chrome-plated sides. The radiator got a plastic grill and the cooling fan became an optional extra. The instruments gained a gear position indicator.
The constructer of the Suzuki GT750, Etsuo Yokouchi, who also constructed the T250 and T500, as well as the 1974 Grand Prix racer RG500, visited Europe in the autumn of 1973 hearing what the general agents had to say about the GT750. He could hear that most GT750 buyers wanted more power and better leaning angle. The exhaust and the central stand were scraping at the tarmac all too soon. Well at home he made some required changes to the model that could be seen in the revised L model version that was presented in August of 1974. The connecting pipe between the left and right exhausts, that had caused leakage in the earlier models, was removed and the exhausts redesigned giving the bik better road clearance in form of larger leaning angle. The engine was slightly tuned up, giving now 70 bhp.
Presented in Japan in January 1974 (first version) and in August 1974 (revised version).
Colours: Flake Orange, Flake Blue.
Starting frame number: 40247.
1975 Suzuki year code: M
In many countries, the changes made to the improved GT750L (August 1974) could be seen in the 1975 M model. The silencers were changed, the gearing raised, compression ratio upped and porting revised. Power output increased by 3 bhp, top speed now about 120 mph.
It went better, handled better and stopped better than previous models. What it did have in common with earlier models was the superbly smooth engine and comfortable high-speed cruising capabilities.
Presented in Japan in October 1974.
Colours: Jewel Gray Metallic, Candy Gipsy Red, Candy Gold.
Starting frame number: 52823.
1976 Suzuki year code: A
The gearing was raised (again) for the 1976 GT750A and it also got a lockable cover over the fuel filler cap.
Presented in Japan in May 1975.
Colours: Maui Blue Metallic, Flake Orange.
Starting frame number: 61729.
1977 Suzuki year code: B
Many details look different on the GT750B. In its final year the GT750B had a different front mudguard without stays, black side panels, different turn signals with new design and no reflectors attached to the sides, black head light shell and restyled rear light, with only one lightbulb instead of two in all the previous models.
Presented in Japan in March 1977.
Colours: Red, Blue.
Starting frame number: 75739

Six Tips for Writing Better Time Travels
Good Advice |
The Daily Page
You create the fictional world and the rules that govern it. Be consistent with those rules. You're writing fantasy, but even
fantasy needs a strong foundation.
If you're bringing a character from past to present, remember you're bringing a lot of intricate psychological baggage.
Attitudes toward sex, for one thing, were very different in the 18th century than they are in the 20th. Thomas Jefferson was
brilliant but he wasn't a feminist. Keep your characters in step with their own upbringing. That's part of the fun...and the conflict.
Unless you're a physicist, be careful what plot device you use to initiate the time travel itself. I've heard editors say that if one
more character bumps his/her head and wakes up in another century, they'll scream.
Remember that in romance most readers are more interested in what happens after the characters travel through time, not in
the mechanics of how they traveled through time. Be clever, be inventive, be somewhat grounded in possibility but don't
inundate the reader with ten pages of information on the existence of wormholes in deep space. That's not what she's looking
for. These are still character-driven stories, not plot-driven.
Much of the fun in reading time travels is experiencing the unfamiliar world through the eyes of your time-traveling character.
But keep in mind that as the popularity of time travel novels increases, the boredom threshold of time travel readers will
decrease. Simply put, I'm beginning to hear rumbles from readers these days that say "enough with the angst over the lack of
running water, let's get on with the story!" Give the reader the experience she's looking for, but strive to do it in a way that's
fresh and different.
And going back to my first suggestion about setting up the rules and sticking to them? Good advice, sure, but in the long run
don't be afraid to ignore everything I've said and go with your gut instinct, because that's what we're really talking about. When
you venture into the world of the paranormal, you're heading down a long dark road and you can't see beyond your own
headlights. The road twists and turns; there are steep hills and hairpin curves, but that only adds to the excitement. Trust your
characters! Trust yourself!
Whether it's time travel or reincarnation, things that go bump in the night or guardian angels, we're talking about writing from the
heart. And isn't that what romance writers do better than anyone?
