Replacement Window Reviews
As many of you may know we had a Review Section on the site where individuals could rate and provide a detailed account of products they had purchased. There was a tremendous response in terms of people reading the reviews, but not so good in terms of reviews being added. It was a bit complicated for the average computer user to upload the review and provide images. We are working on a new system that will be much more user friendly.
In the meantime...
We ask anyone who would like to share their experiences with a particular brand of window to enter a post on our interactive Discussion Board [click here]
When Using the Bulletin Board
Simply relay the product, any technical specifications relative to it such as U or R values, heat, cooling and energy claims, the installation process and your general overall satisfaction. We know many consumers will appreciate this.
When purchasing new windows research is your best ally and reading up on other consumer's experiences is something we preach. Technical information can be found on several government web sites which we have listed in our Resources section.

Sorry to anyone who turned up here looking for new …well, anything. I've been getting to grips with my new student life (the commute being not the least of it – did you know that it's dark at 6.30am these days… me neither.) and in consquence more or less everything else has had to go on the back burner: eating sensibly, tidying up, getting some sort of exercise. So crafting, sewing and blogging have been casualties of the chaos.
But I am still knitting of course – just failing to finish anything! Project wise, I have a lace sock that still needs its second, my Kermit shawl (it needs a better name) is still ongoing, there's a shawl, half sweater and a crochet wrap that are not being 'progressed' at the moment either.
However I did manage to drag a pair of vanilla socks over the line and short of something to do I raided my yarn stash, came up with a couple of likely balls of aran and this happened. Lillian is the perfect cardigan for the negligent knitter – it's top down, mostly stocking stitch and, as its knitted in aran yarn, comes together pretty quickly. I can knit while watching TV (even absorbing TV) and simply make stitch after stitch and turn off my restless brain. I choose something top down because I have a limited amount of yarn and want to maximise every little bit. This way I can avoid ending up with three balls of leftover DK (yes I'm looking at you Cranberry Gose …although, technically, it's not finished yet…there's a sleeve issue.)
While you're here I have favour to ask. I have a stash and I wonder if anyone is as, ahem, 'fortunate' as me to have a similar sized or more, cough, generous? If you do, can you post a photo to me at email@example.com or hop over to Instagram and post a picture with the hashtag #mybigwoolstash. I have a project in mind for my university course that might – and it's a big might at this stage – be about knitting wool/yarn stashes. I'm going to thank you in advance for your help.
Any hoo, I hope to be back at some point with some proper yarn chat, in the meantime, may the knit be with you.

Did You Know?
Even mild fireworks such as sparklers can get hot enough to burn through clothing. To prevent burn injuries, exercise extreme caution when lighting and holding fireworks, and monitor your children closely while celebrating.
Fireworks Safety Recommendations:
Protection for Your Pets:
Like thunderstorms or the vacuum cleaner, fireworks may frighten your family pets. To protect your pets from becoming stressed as a result of loud noises from fireworks:
Healthy Hints
Sparkler fireworks are especially fun for children. Once children are old enough, allow them to hold a sparkler under your guidance. Those who are younger than 12 years old should not hold sparklers and should remain spectators only.

YAML Configuration File in Rails 5
Remove Spring from Rails 5.
bin/spring binstub --remove --all
Create a article model with name, content and
published_on fields. Migrate the database.
rails g model article name content:text published_on:date
rails db:migrate
Copy the sample data to seeds.rb.
batman = Article.create! name: "Batman", content: <<-ARTICLE
Batman is a fictional character created by the artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger. A comic book superhero, Batman first appeared in Detective Comics #27 (May 1939), and since then has appeared primarily in publications by DC Comics. Originally referred to as "The Bat-Man" and still referred to at times as "The Batman", he is additionally known as "The Caped Crusader", "The Dark Knight", and the "World's Greatest Detective," among other titles. (from Railscast)
superman = Article.create! name: "Superman", content: <<-ARTICLE
Superman is a fictional comic book superhero appearing in publications by DC Comics, widely considered to be an American cultural icon. Created by American writer Jerry Siegel and Canadian-born American artist Joe Shuster in 1932 while both were living in Cleveland, Ohio, and sold to Detective Comics, Inc. (later DC Comics) in 1938, the character first appeared in Action Comics #1 (June 1938) and subsequently appeared in various radio serials, television programs, films, newspaper strips, and video games. (from Wikipedia)
krypton = Article.create! name: "Krypton", content: <<-ARTICLE
Krypton is a fictional planet in the DC Comics universe, and the native world of the super-heroes Superman and, in some tellings, Supergirl and Krypto the Superdog. Krypton has been portrayed consistently as having been destroyed just after Superman's flight from the planet, with exact details of its destruction varying by time period, writers and franchise. Kryptonians were the dominant people of Krypton. (from Wikipedia)
lex_luthor = Article.create! name: "Lex Luthor", content: <<-ARTICLE
Lex Luthor is a fictional character, a supervillain who appears in comic books published by DC Comics. He is the archenemy of Superman, and is also a major adversary of Batman and other superheroes in the DC Universe. Created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, he first appeared in Action Comics #23 (April 1940). Luthor is described as "a power-mad, evil scientist" of high intelligence and incredible technological prowess. (from Wikipedia)
robin = Article.create! name: "Robin", content: <<-ARTICLE
Robin is the name of several fictional characters appearing in comic books published by DC Comics, originally created by Bob Kane, Bill Finger and Jerry Robinson, as a junior counterpart to DC Comics superhero Batman. The team of Batman and Robin is commonly referred to as the Dynamic Duo or the Caped Crusaders. (from Wikipedia)
Populate the database.
rails db:seed
Create articles controller.
rails g controller articles
The articles controller uses http basic authentication to restrict edit and destroy of article. It hard codes the user name and password.
class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
http_basic_authenticate_with name: "admin", password: "secret",
except: [:index, :show]
def index
@articles = Article.all
def show
@article = Article.find(params[:id])
def new
@article = Article.new
def create
@article = Article.new(allowed_params)
if @article.save
redirect_to @article, notice: "Created article."
render :new
def edit
@article = Article.find(params[:id])
def update
@article = Article.find(params[:id])
if @article.update_attributes(allowed_params)
redirect_to @article, notice: "Updated article."
render :edit
def allowed_params
params.require(:article).permit(:name, :published_on, :content)
The body of the layout file is as shown below:
<div id="container">
<% flash.each do |name, msg| %>
<%= content_tag :div, msg, id: "flash_#{name}" %>
<% end %>
<%= yield %>
Views are straight forward. Define the rerouces in routes.rb.
resources :articles
root to: 'articles#index'
We can move the hard-coded http basic authentication credentials to the secrets.yml file:
secret_key_base: very-long-string
http_basic_user: test
http_basic_password: best
We can then access the values in secrets.yml in the rails console as follows:
> Rails.application.secrets
=> {:secret_key_base=>"7ae70512d6dcc17f8ea22e057925e9c0d8a4074a75742c6a590ffaba2778034d0be796b42b0ab9bc3b2f5237a3bfa332cd0bbf8fd9760b9ff2885f1f4fb40902", :http_basic_user=>"test", :http_basic_password=>"test", :secret_token=>nil}
> Rails.application.secrets.http_basic_user
=> "test"
> Rails.application.secrets.http_basic_password
=> "best"
Add secrets.yml to .gitignore file to prevent checking it in to source control.
echo config/secrets.yml >> .gitignore
Replace the controller hard-coded values with the values from secrets file:
http_basic_authenticate_with name: Rails.application.secrets.http_basic_user,
password: Rails.application.secrets.http_basic_password,
except: [:index, :show]
Make your code immune to future changes of Rails. Create credentials.rb in lib folder and define methods that wrap the knowledge about accessing the credentials into methods as shown below:
class Credential
def self.http_basic_user
def self.http_basic_password
We now have localized the changes to one file, any future Rails backward incompatible API changes will not cause changes to multiple files in our application. This is crucial when your application becomes big. In application.rb, add the lib folder to the autoload paths:
config.autoload_paths << Rails.root.join('lib')
You can now use the utility methods defined in the Credential class.
http_basic_authenticate_with name: Credential.http_basic_user,
password: Credential.http_basic_password,
except: [:index, :show]
What if you want to create a separate yml file for a given functionality? Let's say credit card processing, create config/stripe.yml and specify the
api_key and
api_key: 12345
api_secret: 6789
api_key: 12345
api_secret: 6789
api_key: <%= ENV["STRIPE_API_KEY"] %>
api_secret: <%= ENV["STRIPE_API_SECRET"] %>
We can now access the values in the Rails console like this:
> stripe_config = Rails.application.config_for(:stripe)
=> {"api_key"=>12345, "api_secret"=>6789}
> Rails.application.config.x.stripe.api_key = stripe_config['api_key']
=> 12345
> Rails.application.config.x.stripe.api_secret = stripe_config['api_secret']
=> 6789
> Rails.application.config.x.stripe.api_key
=> 12345
> Rails.application.config.x.stripe.api_secret
=> 6789
Create config/initializers/stripe.rb to read the Stripe credentials once when the application boots up.
STRIPE_CONFIG = Rails.application.config_for(:stripe)
This reads the credential values in the stripe.yml for the current Rails environment. We can add the new methods to retrieve the Stripe credentials in the Credential class.
def self.stripe_api_key
def self.stripe_api_secret
You can now access the Stripe credentials in your code like this:
> Credential.stripe_api_key
=> 12345
> Credential.stripe_api_secret
=> 6789
Add the stripe.yml to the .gitignore file. You can create a sample, stripe.yml.sample to provide a template for other developers in your team to use. How do we handle the credentials in the production environment? You can either set the environment variable or use something enterprisey like zookeeper. You can download the source code for this project from ycon.

Claim Everything
I am thinking about everything up to this point. Over the years I have said that life is like stumbling down a dark hallway with your hands in front of your face. That ignores the fact that you can learn a lot about hallways by stumbling. I should get a medal for resisting things that are good for me. Last to Learn it would read. I get it eventually, and I want a medal for that too. He Gets it Eventually proudly displayed beneath Suspicious of Motives.
To achieve is admirable, to persevere is sublime.

If you are looking to start your own club, then there are a few important things that you must first know that will help you out a lot. One of those things is that you have to create a lounge for your club, no matter how big you make it, but you must have one. Why is a lounge important to be a part of your club, well a lounge is a public place that is there to greet the people when the first walk into the club.
It is essentially a place where people hang out while waiting for someone or something. In this article, you will find instructions that you can use to your advantage in order to create the perfect lounge for your club.
Make it Comfortable
Definitely, the number one thing that you have to put a lot of attention when creating a lounge is to make it very comfortable. People don't like to be in lounges that don't have a high comfort level, especially at some fancy clubs. If you have money to invest in your club, then you most likely have also to improve your lounge and create something unique. When it comes to comfortability, there is no such thing as too much, you cannot get too comfortable no matter what you have, so don't be scared to go all out.
The more comfortable you make that lounge the better it will be for both you and your guests. When making comfort decisions, you can choose from many different things. Of course, one of the key things is to provide some type of comfortable chairs and sofas that will allow people to completely relax and enjoy the time they are spending there. The softer and larger the sofa is the better, and of course, you need to get some luxury items.
People who come into these lounges need to have some type of entertainment, you cannot forget about that. the number one thing is to install some huge TV on the walls. Also, if you want to go further, you can even create a place where people can use some gaming consoles to play while waiting and relaxing.

A new bill, stemming from the case of a man who provided support for a child that wasn't biologically his, has been approved by the senate. The measure comes on the heels of an Illinois child support case that captured the attention of a senator who vowed to help the man seek compensation. The bill has not yet been made law, but it received a unanimous vote from Illinois senators.
According to case records, the man in question had been paying child support for an indeterminate number of years towards the upbringing of a child who DNA testing proved in 2011 was not his son. The petition filed to argue the case did not fall into the two-year statute of limitations imposed by Illinois law, and so the man's petition failed. He claims he had no legitimate reason to believe the child was not his as of 2001 when he did not appear for a DNA test, but has since had a further test conducted after he met the child in 2011.
If the bill is ratified into law, it will overturn the two-year limitation on child support cases, a move expected to affect only a few Illinois residents. The man in question will be required to submit to another DNA test to prove the child's parentage lies elsewhere should the law pass. The bill generated some controversy when it was initially proposed, but the 52-0 vote in the Illinois senate suggests the controversy was not bothersome enough to block the move.
Child support can be a complicated arrangement, especially if a child's parentage is brought into question. This law will change the way child support cases of this nature are handled in Illinois, and may save considerable expense for Illinois residents who may have been wrongly identified as parents. It is important for anyone facing child support issues to remain up-to-date on the status of the state's laws related to these payments.

The stunning Polyrhachis ammon
We were lucky enough to stumble upon lots of Polyrhachis ammon colonies whilst out looking for ants last week.
We managed to scoop up an unlucky individual who became our model for the photos above.
These ants are fairly common on the east coast of Australia and are a great looking ant. But this specimen in particular is extremely beautiful. The deep gold gaster and the silver shimmer on the thorax contrast against the jet black head and legs.
We'll be on the lookout for a queen come late spring!
A simple 3D printed test tube connector from the new Ants Everything brand.
A formicarium you can hang on the wall.
A founding style "growable" nest from Antz For All.
In an unfortunate case of bad timing, a live TV interview in Australia has been interrupted by a mating swarm of ants during their nuptial flight.
Ants Australia made a really big impact on the formicarium market with their Ytong Nests that they released earlier this year. Now they're introducing a new range of acrylic nests!
Although we're a little late to the party, Ants Australia released their next video in their docu series titles, Wood Ants.
That's right, the former President of America owns not one, but two ant farms!
Here's a little formicarium from Brian Martell for an Australian ant keeper with a tighter budget.

I don't really know any musicians that fit in to the stereotype pretentious, cocky rockstar mold; maybe that's just because I don't really know any rockstars. In fact, everybody I know has pretty much the opposite problem, and is trying day by day to wrench themselves free of the gravitational pull of insecurity in their hearts in order to be motivated to create something.
Insecurity is by far the greatest obstacle that hinders our creative potential, far more than whatever we sometimes think the problem really is: whether lack of money, lack of connections, or lack of the big hit. It saps our best energy. It keeps you from taking your chances to get up behind the microphone. It keeps your great songs hidden in your notebooks. It comes in all shapes and flavors, and the good news is that even though not one of us will ever grow out of it (not even the rockstars actually), you can learn to not be controlled by it, and I want to suggest just one thing you can do to help in the new year: create something, and then share it.
Because it seems like people like reading lists, here's a list of good reasons you should do this:
1.) It's therapeutic. Making music is good for your soul. You love doing it, and it makes you a better, more enjoyable person to be around. Working hard in an area of your passions is intrinsically rewarding, as it should be.
2.) It makes you better, both as a musician and as a person that's learning to not be controlled by insecurity. Your best learning comes by doing. I promise you won't get better by sitting on your ass, and you won't get better by keeping stuff to yourself. If you share your dumb stuff, (which is truly only sorta dumb and sorta ok), something magical happens where over time you gain perspective on it, on what's good and bad about it, and this is how you get better.
3.) You won't regret it. For real, I have put out lots of dumb, bad sounding stuff – like, the most embarrassing kind of trying to be artsy, overly earnest, bad stuff. Weird thing is: they just don't bother me. In fact, even though I hear all the mistakes, I still love them in their own way. Those songs are documents of a place and a time and a feeling, and of course your feelings at 17 are dumb. I put them on and jam to them, and that's pretty narcissistic and I don't care.
4.) Everyone needs encouragement. One thing that will happen when you put stuff out is people will tell you it's good, regardless of whether it totally is. This is good because you need it. Insecurity makes you defensive, and one of the ways to grow in that area of life is to let people encourage you. People will tell you your music is good either because they really like it or just because they like you. Honestly, I'm fine with either.
Of all the times in history to be motivated to do something, this has got to be the best. Every day, thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of people, are sharing their awful songs and painful singing and terrible playing on the internet, and people are watching it and telling them it's cool, and some of those people are being genuine. Why are you still sitting there, working on a song, hearing the voice of the most negative person you know in your head telling you it sucks? (Am I the only person that this happens to?) Insecurity doesn't get better by giving in to it. Quit dragging your feet and do something. That's it.
PS – I have been working on a record of my own tunes for over two years, and I'm putting it out in the next few months, for real. Hold me to it.

The Keewatin Appeal
On March 18, 2013 the Ontario Court of Appeal gave its decision in the case of Keewatin v. Minister of Natural Resources. In doing so, the Court reversed a Superior Court decision that significantly complicated the way in which resource developers and provinces deal with approvals to carry on activities on Crown lands that fall under certain of the "Numbered Treaties".
In 1997, the Ontario Minister of Natural Resources ("MNR") issued a sustainable forest license to Abitibi-Consolidated Inc. ("Abitibi") to carry out clear-cut forestry operations in parts of the Whiskey Jack Forest. The forest was part of an area that was the subject of Treaty 3 made in 1873 between the Government of Canada and the Saulteaux Tribe of the Ojibway Indians. At that time the forest formed part of the Keewatin District. It was not until 1912 that most of the Keewatin district became part of the Province of Ontario.
Treaty 3 contains what is referred to as a "harvesting" or "taking up" clause that allows government to authorize activities that interfere with the Treaty rights to hunt and fish in the Treaty area. The taking up clause in Treaty 3 is similar to those contained in some of the other Numbered Treaties:
… they, the said Indians, shall have the right to pursue their avocations of hunting and fishing throughout the said tract surrendered and herein before described… saving and excepting said tracts as may, from time to time, be required or taken up for settlement, mining, lumbering or other purposes by Her said Government of the Dominion of Canada, or by any of the subjects thereof, dully authorized therefore by the said Government.
Grassy Narrows First Nation challenged the issuance of the license by Ontario. They said that at the time of the Treaty the land was not part of Ontario and that the Government of Canada was the only government that could authorize uses that interfere with the harvesting rights. In 2011 the trial judge agreed. The judge held that Ontario did not have the jurisdiction to "take up" lands within the Keewatin District under the Treaty; Canada's approval was required. This put into doubt Ontario's ability to issue resource licenses and permits over a significant portion of its territory. The decision also made certain evidentiary findings regarding the understanding of the Ojibway people with the meaning of Treaty 3, including a finding that the Ojibway understood the Treaty as calling for a sharing of resources.
This caused a brief shake-up in the resource industry. MNR appealed and several other parties joined the appeal as parties and interveners. By 2009, Abitibi withdrew from the case, due to its own restructuring. Goldcorp signed on. Other Treaty 3 and Treaty 6 First Nations joined in. Treaty 6 contains similar a similar taking-up clauses. (For the Treaty text and maps, go to Aboriginal and Northern Affairs Canada at: www.aadnc-aandg.gc.ca.)
The Court of Appeal reviewed the history of Treaty 3 and the constitutional wrangling between Canada and Ontario following Confederation. It found that the trial judge's decision was at odds with the established constitutional framework and could not be sustained. The Court of Appeal reiterated the law that Treaties are made with the Crown, not by a particular level of government; where a First Nation looks to the Crown to enforce Treaty promises, it must do so within the framework of the division of powers between Canada and the provinces under the constitution. The Court concluded that, through the boundary legislation, Ontario "stepped into the shoes of Canada for the purposes of Treaty 3's harvesting clause in the Keewatin Lands."
In keeping the status quo, the Court took the time to remind us of the general principles applicable to government decisions that impact upon Treaty rights:
To uphold the honour of the Crown, the governmental entity must first inform itself of the degree to which the contemplated conduct would adversely affect the Aboriginal peoples' right to hunt, fish and trap and whether that triggers the duty to consult. It must communicate its findings to the affected Aboriginal peoples. It must attempt to deal with First Nations in good faith and with the intention of substantially addressing their concerns. The duty to consult is triggered at a low threshold but adverse impact is a matter of degree, as is the extent of the content of the governmental entity's duty to consult and accommodate. …
Ontario must respect those rights and manage changes to them in accordance with the honour of the Crown and s. 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982. Ontario cannot take up lands so as to deprive the First Nation signatories of a meaningful right to harvest in their traditional territories. Further, honourable management requires that Ontario, as the government with authority to take up in the Keewatin Lands, must consult with First Nations and accommodate their treaty rights whenever they are sufficiently impacted by the taking up.
Stay tuned for any further appeal.

5 Health Benefits of Black Pepper You Never Knew!
How many recipes have you added black pepper too just to enhance the flavor? Common pepper is the fruit of the black pepper plant native to India. Piperine, a chemical component of pepper, makes it spicy. When dried, it is referred to as a peppercorn. Even though small, it contains a lot of nutrients and health benefits.
Nutrients in Black Pepper
Minerals in black pepper include potassium, magnesium, sodium, and phosphorus. Vitamins found in pepper include niacin, vitamin B6, riboflavin, and thiamin. Some of the other nutrients included in pepper, but not to the extent as the others include vitamin K, folate, and vitamin E. Carbohydrate content is moderate as well as protein. However, black pepper has a lot of dietary fiber.
Health Benefits of Black Pepper
Without realizing the many health benefits, you've sprinkled black pepper on many dishes. After much research, it's been determined this little flavor enhancer provides numerous health benefits. Here are the top 5 health benefits of black pepper.
Black Pepper Improves Digestion
When you eat pepper, the stomach increases secretions of hydrochloric acid. This facilitates the digestive process. Properly digesting foods helps prevent difficulties like constipation and diarrhea. But it can also help prevent intestinal gas. Another benefit your body gets from pepper is promoting secretions including urination and sweat. When the body sweats, toxins and foreign bodies are cleaned out of the pores. Benefits of promoting urination include helping remove excess water, helping the body function better overall, and preventing gastrointestinal problems.
The Role of Black Pepper in Weight Loss
Consuming foods with lots of pepper may be a great way to help with natural weight loss. The outer layer of the peppercorn aids the body in breaking down fat cells. Fat cells as they are broken down into smaller components are easily processed in the body. Otherwise, they settle in the body and cause weight gain. Ayurvedic tea contains black pepper and it is often recommended for those who want to lose weight.
Black Pepper Provides Respiratory Relief
Non-traditional medicine such as Ayurvedic practices incorporate black pepper into tonics to treat colds and coughs. Its expectorant properties break up phlegm and mucus to prevent them from sitting in the respiratory tract. Have you ever sneezed or coughed after exposure to pepper? The natural irritant qualities help loosen nasal materials through the sneeze or cough. This eliminates the intruders from the body and prevents them from being deposited in the body to begin with. Stews and soups made with aromatic spices including pepper are often effective at treating colds and coughs.
Improve Cognitive Function with Black Pepper
One of the primary components of black pepper, piperine might reduce memory impairment. It can also boost cognitive function. The organic compounds stimulate pathways in the brain. Researchers lean toward the possibility of pepper benefiting patients suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's.
Using Black Pepper to Treat Peptic Ulcers
Black pepper possesses anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Several studies have revealed that black pepper may have a beneficial effect on peptic ulcers. It may help prevent gastric mucosal damage because of the properties it contains.

Karen Peterson: No more taking potshots from behind anonymity
You call up a bunch of friends. You invite them over for dinner. You all sit down and begin to chat about the news of the day.
Almost immediately, Charlie stands up and screams across the table at John, calling him vulgar names because of his political persuasion. Mary unleashes a profanity-laced pack of lies about Charlie. And Margaret threatens to blow up the whole house if the rest of them don't sit down.
Some days, that's what it feels like to run a website that allows readers to comment on every story. Until now, Charlie, John, Mary and Margaret could hide in the virtual bushes on our website and hurl those shots anonymously. We believe that led to some particularly nasty exchanges and discouraged thoughtful commentary.
Beginning today, commenters at thenewstribune.com must attach their names to their comments. Facebook will be our vehicle for making that happen. We hope it leads to a more civil, but still active dinner-table-like conversation.
Over the past two years, we gradually implemented Facebook commenting on our blogs. The tenor of the discussion improved greatly.
Now we're extending it to the rest of the site. To comment, you must have an active Facebook account. When you comment, we'll see your real name. No more can you post as 3rdpigshouse or EliteTacomaLiberal. Facebook is good at finding and eliminating people who register with fake names.
A few people have expressed privacy concerns about Facebook. On our site, readers can share their TNT comments with their Facebook friends. Or they can un-click the sharing box and their comments won't appear on Facebook.
Some readers were afraid readers could see their personal information or location through Facebook. Your privacy settings on Facebook allow you to decide how much information you share with your friends or others.
Even with the change, you can still flag comments you think are inappropriate. Our rules of conduct remain the same. We ask that you not be threatening, abusive, vulgar, libelous or ethnically objectionable. We ask that you not scream at us by typing in all caps. We ask that you stay generally on point. We think that leaves plenty of room for healthy discourse.
We've posted more questions and answers at thenewstribune. com/faq. Look under the heading, "About Facebook Commenting."
While not perfect, we've found that Facebook works fine for most readers. We know we will lose a few commenters because of this change, but we're willing to do so to improve the conversation.
It's our dinner party. We'd love to have you, but you'll have to play by our rules.
And we're dying to find out who you are, 3rdpigshouse.
We recently contracted with a new digital vendor to manage access to our website and mobile apps. Because of this change, TNT subscribers must re-register their accounts.
Many of our customers already log in to our website to make payments or place a vacation stop. When you re-register your account with our new vendor, you'll use that same password.
If you don't remember your password, call customer service at 800-289-8711 or email us at customerservice@thenewstribune. com. Our trained reps can walk you through resetting your password and restore access to the digital products you enjoy.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Eric Williams, who has worked at The News Tribune since 2006 and covered the Seahawks since 2008, leaves us this month for a job with ESPN covering the San Diego Chargers.
In his time at the TNT, Williams has been at the forefront of multimedia coverage, providing video, audio and online chats. He made the Seahawks Insider blog a must-read for football fans and provided the paper with great stories, too. He previously covered the Sonics and was our preps coordinator. Williams grew up in Tacoma.
As much as we'll miss his coverage, we'll miss the man even more. We wish Williams and his family the best.
Todd Dybas will move from the University of Washington Huskies beat to cover the Seahawks. Dybas' online skills will help him pick up where Williams left off.
And Christian Caple will take over on the Huskies beat. Caple, a UW grad, has been covering the Washington State Cougars for The Spokesman-Review for two years, and his stories have appeared in the TNT as part of our Spokane partnership.

Take a look at our latest blogs
Here at Vita-You, we want to help the 33 million people who suffer from toe nail fungus and other fungal foot infections. Millions of people risk losing their toe nails due to the fungal infection; which can be incredibly difficult to treat and cure. Over-the-counter (OTC) anti-fungal topical medications are notoriously ineffective and the types of oral prescription medications available can be extremely costly, have dangerous side effects and typically need to be taken for prolonged periods of time.
Have you ever wondered why in the colder, winter months you experience more break-outs than any other time of year? You're not alone, in fact a study among acne patients revealed that 11% of the study participants experienced an increase of moderate to severe acne symptoms in winter compared to summer. We've got the answers as to why your skin is behaving differently in colder months and how you can treat your skin to look healthier and spot-free.
Are you a University student suffering from acne? You're not alone. Acne is a widespread issue, with 3 in 5 of young adults admitting that it has affected their self-confidence. Spots can occur for several reasons, from hormone imbalances, to your diet - and for people suffering from it, one of the most frustrating things can be determining why the breakouts occur.
Dry skin is an issue which affects many and can often leave skin feeling dull and malnourished. Fortunately, a good moisturizer can go a long way in treating dry skin; so it's vital that you use the correct type for your skin. While most people opt for a lotion-based serum, oil-based moisturizers may be a far more effective solution – offering the skin an intensely nourishing and soothing remedy.
Oregano oil is a natural oil extracted from oregano plants that has been scientifically proven to have potent antifungal activity. You'll therefore be pleased to learn that you can find this powerful natural botanical oil as one of the three prime active ingredients in our fungal serum, FUNGIcycle.
"100% natural", "organic beauty" and "natural ingredients" – all terms you're probably familiar with. 'Natural' has become somewhat of a buzzword in the skincare and cosmetics industry in recent years, with figures showing that 73% of women aged 18-34 believe the term "all-natural" to be a key decision making term.
Acne treatments have seen a surge in popularity in recent years, with every one promising to clear acne with a new wonder ingredient. In the US there are more than 50 million acne-suffers and globally, it's predicted that the acne treatment market will grow to over 7 billion dollars by 2025.
What do you see when you look down at your feet and toes? If you are like almost 37 million people in the US, your toe nails may look yellow-brown, thick and brittle. You could well have what doctors call onychomycosis, or more commonly toe nail fungus. You also might be feeling a bit embarrassed to wear those sandals and open-toed shoes this summer because of the way your nails look.

Woman Marries Grandpa, But When He Sees Her Dress The Weirdest Thing Happens.
He was confused. His granddaughter had told him they were going to take some photos, which sounded like an odd thing to do when he was sick and in the hospital. Still, he went along because he trusted her. Then, when she came back into the room and he saw what she was wearing, he became even more bewildered. "What is happening?" he thought. When she finally revealed what was going on, the truth almost overwhelmed him.
A New Family
Xuewei, Mr. Fu's granddaughter, was the apple of his eye. Her life had taken a sharp turn at a very young age, when her parents separated. She was sent to live with Mr. Fu and his wife in Chengdu, China. Luckily, they were loving people and raised her with all the care and attention they could offer. She developed a bond with them so strong that she now considered them her mother and father. But there are downsides to having elderly parents.
Always Close To Her Heart
Wikimedia Commons/Monk
When Xuewei was 18, she left the country to study in Switzerland and then Singapore. But she made a point to keep a close relationship with her grandparents. She talked to them frequently, telling them about her travels, her studies, and even her relationship problems. Eventually, she moved back to China to start her career and continued to keep her grandparents close. It turned out to be a wise decision because time was catching up with them.
A Model Granddaughter
Weibo/Fu Xuewei
After she graduated from university, Xuewei became a successful entrepreneur. The fruits of her work allowed her to live a good life, in which she tried to include her grandparents as much as possible. She took them on holidays abroad and has even brought them to nightclubs. But soon, the reality of the couple's age started catching up with the family. And Xuewei didn't know if she'd be able to handle what was to come.
Confronting A Hard Truth
Weibo/Fu Xuewei
Late last year, when Xuewei was 25 years old, she had to grapple with some heartbreaking news. Her grandfather, Fu Qiquan, fell seriously ill. Doctors told Xuewei they didn't know if he would live for much longer. This was not Mr. Fu's first health scare, but it truly made Xuewei realize that she would not have much more time to spend with the couple who raised her so lovingly. She became determined to make the most of it.

Watalappam: A Sweet Reward
This is one of my favorite desserts; as a kid I would finish all my chores and homework without any hesitation if I knew I would be getting one of my favorite desserts of all time. Watalappam is a coconut custard made with jaggery (palm sugar) topped with a few cashews. The dessert may originate with Sri Lankan Malays who came to the country during Dutch rule and is originally a Muslim dish especially popular during Ramadan, though still enjoyed year round.
One thing to keep in mind when making this dessert is to get good Jaggery, but it can be hard to find a good source. Jaggery comes in blocks. It should be very easy to cut, and should stick to the knife when you are breaking it apart.
500 grams of jaggery, finely chopped
12 eggs
27 ounces of coconut milk
5 green cardamom
3 cloves
1 stick of cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg powder
Cashews used as a topping
Preheat oven to 350 F
Start by beating the eggs, and adding the 27 ounces of coconut milk (I recommend using Chaokoh coconut milk, 2 cans) and whisk the two ingredients thoroughly.
Begin adding the chopped jaggery, roughly 150 grams at a time, while whisking it into the coconut milk and eggs.
Let that sit for a while, in the meantime grind the cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon into a fine powder (a coffee grinder should do the job). Add these spices along with the nutmeg powder into the rest of the dessert, and whisk again. Some of the jaggery might not have dissolved, but thats not a huge issue, you can always use a ladle to smash the jaggery at the bottom of the pot.
Grease an oven-friendly bowl with a little butter to help it the pudding un-mold when serving. Pour everything into the bowl. Sprinkle the cashew throughout the top - almost as a garnish. This dish needs to steam in the oven, so place the entire dish in a metal tray filled roughly a quarter full of water.
Let it cook in the oven for 40 minutes. To check if its ready, the custard should be risen a bit like bread and there should be cracks all around. If this isn't the case put it back in the oven for 7 to 10 minutes more.
Let it rest outside the oven while still sitting in the hot water for a couple of minutes. When the puffiness has gone down, take it out of the hot water and let it cool and then refrigerate. Cool it over night or give it 2 hours to chill.
Tip it over on a plate that you are going to serve it in, I like to add some crushed up cashews on top for decoration. Now all you have to do is enjoy this delicious dessert.

The media's tradition of not reporting election results until all polls close is being shaken up this year, Politico reports.
That's because some media companies are going "real time" in an effort to keep Americans up to speed on the minute-by-minute election numbers.
Slate and Vice News are working with Votecastr to provide fast-breaking updates on how the candidates are faring in each state.
Politico is partnering with Morning Consult to quiz voters after they cast their ballots. And BuzzFeed is partnering with Decision Desk HQ to get the results out quickly.
BuzzFeed editor Ben Smith told Politico he hopes the project provides "a clear window not just into who's winning, but also how journalists and analysts are making these calls."

Osteoporosis is a disease that is marked by decreased bone mass and poor bone quality, which lead to a greater risk of bone fractures. According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, osteoporosis affects about 10 million Americans, and another 18 million others are at risk of developing the disease. Additionally, 34 million Americans are at risk of developing osteopenia, or low bone mass.
October 20 is World Osteoporosis Day. Spread the word in your community about the importance of good bone health.
- Did you know that men over 50 are more likely to break a bone due to osteoporosis than they are to develop prostate cancer? Lead an informative session about the dangers of osteoporosis in men at a local VFW, Lions Club or community group with a high membership of men. Download a brochure focusing on men's health and osteoporosis to distribute at the session.
- Partner with a local orthopedic practice and sponsor a free community bone density screening. These screenings are safe, fast, and involve no radiation. Your first step: learn more about the non-invasive screening using an ultrasound bone densitometer.
- Write a short article (about one page typed) about bone health and include tips for people to improve their own bone health. Submit it to local churches, community organizations, and community newspapers to be used as a drop-in article in their bulletins, newsletters or other publications.
- Teach a ready-made class on bone, joint and muscle health at area ALFs, adult day care centers and places of worship. The class comes complete with posters to promote it, an easy-to-read script, flyers for the audience to follow along, and a backdrop customized to your agency. Course elements are also available individually. Call 866-232-6477 for details and pricing.
- For those who have osteoporosis, suffering a fall poses a serious risk because even small stumbles can mean a fractured bone. Create posters to promote your agency's fall prevention efforts and free home safety screenings in the offices of all your physician referral sources and at your local libraries and senior centers. Consider adding a fall prevention patient education guide to your patient materials to help clients stay safe.
- Distribute an agency newsletter about the importance of strong bones for fall prevention. Find a ready-made one here.

Hey HCC Family,
I'm a routine kind of person. I like to live by patterns. I think it brings me a sense of control…oh yeah, that reminds me, I'm a control freak…now the routine and patterns make sense. Other folks are always mixing it up, change just for change sake. Well, no change can be stagnation, but also, not all change is positive, and not all movement is forward. So, insight and balance are key.
This is true even in matters of the soul…too much control limits growth, often leading to stagnation, and too much change often leads to instability.
However, I've learned that in matters of the soul, God will even use the tension between control and change to form and shape our souls. So, attempt to avoid the extremes of control and change, in order to live in balance with the Spirit.
A PERSONAL INVITATION: to attend my impact course on reconciling the physical (secular), and spiritual (sacred) realms in our life. The course is both a Bible study, and best practice experience. It will run for eight weeks at 7pm on Wednesday nights from April 19 – June 7. Contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com if interested in attending.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Not once but twice the Gillette Stadium crowd went silent. This is what happens when your team goes to four consecutive AFC Championship Games, as the New England Patriots are about to do. You expect something more than two 14-point deficits, more than your quarterback sitting on the bench with his head in his hands, more than the defense being gashed.
What the Patriots fans, perhaps distracted by the bitter cold they were sitting in, forgot was that those things would undermine other teams beyond the point of recovery. Because other teams don't unveil double passes -- executed by Julian Edelman, the former three-year collegiate starting quarterback who is now one of Tom Brady's favorite receivers -- that had been in the game plan all year, just waiting to be sprung when a favorable defense was called.
Other teams don't confuse the opponent by using just four offensive linemen for a series -- which sent Baltimore Ravens Coach John Harbaugh halfway onto the field, screaming his demand that the Ravens be allowed to substitute after officials ran through who was an ineligible receiver. Harbaugh later implied the deployment of personnel was improper, saying he expected the league to look at it. That elicited a comment from Brady that perhaps the Ravens have to study the rulebook to figure it out.
"We obviously knew what we were doing," Brady said.
The Patriots almost always do. Other teams don't have a quarterback like Brady, who can recover from a miserable interception, to throw a magnificent 23-yard touchdown pass in the back left corner to Brandon LaFell to give New England its first lead of the AFC Divisional game over the Ravens with just 5:13 remaining. Other teams don't intercept Joe Flacco in the playoffs -- at least not any other team since 2011 -- until the Patriots did it twice, including on the pass that all but ended the game, when Duron Harmon picked him off in the end zone.
The Patriots did all of that Saturday -- the gorgeous and the unsightly -- in a 35-31 victory that, aside from becoming an instant classic, probably made one point more than any other: The Patriots, with a remarkable show of resilience, just survived what will likely be the toughest test they will face on their way to the Super Bowl, outmuscling and outhustling the most physically imposing team remaining in the AFC field.
The Ravens' offensive and defensive lines blew the Patriots off the ball for much of the game. Flacco was not sacked and was rarely under duress. The Patriots abandoned the run completely in the second half, and then went to a quick passing game to keep the pass rush at bay. Whether the Denver Broncos or the Indianapolis Colts prevail Sunday to set up the meeting with the Patriots next weekend, both teams should know this -- the Patriots recognized they survived a mistake-riddled game to advance.
"I'm not disappointed -- you kidding me?" Belichick said, before adding. "Down by 14 points twice -- I don't think that's a formula to win a lot of playoff games."
Well, no. And that was the takeaway from the Patriots, who never celebrate even the most scintillating victories unless they come in the correct venue -- read: the Super Bowl. Brady has now made it to nine AFC Championship Games in the 13 seasons he has played, in a remarkable run of consistency that has practically numbed everyone to the Patriots' accomplishments; but that also renders even victories like this something of afterthoughts and allows the Patriots to recognize flaws in their performance that the scoreboard can't hide.
This was, for the Patriots, a predictably difficult test from a team that historically gives them fits. But to read New England's mood, it was merely a stepping stone, a dramatic one for sure, but just another playoff game it had to get through.
Belichick said he liked this team's resilience, something which it first had to display early this season, when the offensive line was a jumble and New England started 2-2. The seeming inevitability of the Patriots' appearance in another AFC Championship didn't really take form until about two months ago. But to witness them pulling more ways to win out of their bag of tricks -- remember the time Jonas Gray (inactive Sunday) saved the season? -- is to be reminded that you can usually skip right over the regular-season angst with the Patriots and meet up with them some time in January when their real season starts.
Vince Wilfork, the defensive tackle who has been through a few of these now, practically shrugged when asked about the overall play of the team.
"It's the playoffs," he said. "Every game is going to be a tough game. I think tonight we showed just how tough this team really is. In a playoff game, being down 14-0, rallying with each other, making plays when we needed the plays."
It is hard to imagine that either the Broncos or the Colts can give the Patriots more of a fight than the Ravens did. Neither is built to play the bruising style that the Ravens do and neither has the Ravens' track record of success in Foxborough, robbing them of the Ravens' sense that there is no reason to be intimidated here.
That, of course, suggests that the Patriots will get another crack at another Super Bowl. That would presumably finally raise the temperature of the team. And maybe it would serve as a reminder to all of us -- the fans who always expect things to go smoothly because they almost always do, the pundits who find holes in even the most airtight mental toughness -- that the Patriots do things differently. It may not always look good. But they'll wait to judge the result until they see where the games end. And 14-point deficits don't mean the end.
"We needed a lot of plays," Brady said. "We played from behind, which is not the way that we want to play. Playing these guys from ahead was the best way to play them -- and behind twice by 14 wasn't necessarily in the plans. It took a lot of good execution to overcome it. A lot of guys fought through -- a lot of mental toughness."

Agra Emerald Crown Ring
Complimentary Home Try On
The king (or queen) of all stacking rings, this crown ring features a 2.96 tcw cabochon Muzo emerald with 0.22 ctw diamond melee in 18K hammered and mattee fairmined yellow gold. 6.5 mm band width. 16.5 mm width including emerald. Size 7.
Complimentary sizing available for most ring sizes.
"I fell in love with the beauty, quality and uniqueness of the emeralds from Muzo Emeralds when they approached me to collaborate on a new collection as the cuts are not typical and no two emeralds are exactly alike. Their ethical and transparent practices cemented my interest in partnering with them on this collection." - Dana Bronfman
A collector by nature, Dana Bronfman discovered her passion for jewelry throughout her global travels. A bracelet from Istanbul, a Native American heirloom passed on from her grandmother—the pieces she amassed told Bronfman's own story, and she yearned to craft pieces that would become part of other people's story.
Her namesake line, which debuted two years ago, draws inspiration from such influences as Salvador Dali and industrial architecture. Her collection is rife with bold, modern designs that mix metals and negative space in artful and unexpected ways. Classically trained as a metalsmith at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco and as an apprentice in Santa Fe, Bronfman now lives in New York City, where each piece is crafted by hand from reclaimed 18K gold, post-consumer diamonds and ethically sourced gemstones. In 2017, she won Fashion Group International's Rising Star Award for fine jewelry.
This ring is grand in stature and design. We love the exquisite cabochon emerald and crown-like carved band. Try stacking two to make an even larger statement.

Seeing Stars:
A Complete Guide to the 88 Constellations
written & illustrated by Sara Gillingham
This artful and accessible introduction to constellations equips readers with the information they need to locate, name, and explain all 88 internationally recognized constellations. Each cluster of stars is featured alongside the "story" (mythological or historical) behind its naming, tips on how to find it, what times of year it is visible, and key stars and asterisms within its grouping. Complete with star maps and a glossary, this keepsake volume of visual reference and beauty is perfect for inquisitive young stargazers.
select praise:
"Yeah, we know, there's an app for that—many in fact—but if the point is to curb the screen time, Sara Gillingham's Seeing Stars: A Complete Guide to the 88 Constellations has as good a shot as anything for teaching your kid how much there is to see if you just look up. Quite literally…'Stars are not only beautiful to look at,' Gillingham reminds us. They once helped farmers figure out planting seasons, guided explorers and travelers, and, most crucially for our purposes today, offered inspiration to retell stories and legends and make sense of a mysterious otherworld. 'The stories can still develop and change, as they have over thousands of years,' she writes. 'You, too, can be a part of those stories.'"
—The New York Times

Hundreds of titles were selected for the Trust's gift of a Library to serve the schools of Kohima. The goal is to provide a collection of vocational books as well as atlases, encyclopedias and dictionaries. The library is currently located in the main town library.
A valuable collection of reference books has been added recently to the school reference library from the personal collection of Mr Alexander Carmichael of Tynemouth, Tyne & Wear. The library continues to grow.
Anyone who would like to present reference books suitable for school use in any subject is invited to send details to the Secretary. If the books are approved by Mr Pheluopfelie Kesiezie, Chairman of the Kohima Educational Society in Kohima, KET will pay the cost of carriage.
KES plans to gift a good dictionary to every Nagaland High School. Following a survey of teachers, the Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary was selected. This is just the sort of practical, small scale project that KES feels will be a very effective step towards fulfilling their aims and those of KET.
