Candide and Zadig
Unabridged Audiobook
Written By: Voltaire
Narrated By: Clive Chafer
Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks
Date: May 2011
Duration: 6 hours 26 minutes
These two classic coming-of-age stories by Voltaire parody the romanticism of his day with the ruthless wit that has made him the undisputed master of social commentary.
Candide, which is alternately titled Optimism, is a merciless satire and exposé of the ideas and institutions men live by. In this philosophical fantasy, the naïve Candide comes to witness and to suffer such misfortune that he rejects the philosophy of his tutor, Dr. Pangloss, who claims that "all is for the best in this best of all possible worlds."
Zadig is the story of another optimist—young, rich, beautiful, and engaged to a woman he loves. When his early hopes and assets are destroyed, he embarks on a journey that will systematically explore science, religion, and the military, contributing to each, betrayed by all. Through these trials, he will eventually win the kingdom of Babylon.
"A masterful satire on the follies and vices of men."— Masterpieces of World Literature on Candide

Whatcom home sales jump 22 percent in July
Whatcom County continued its string of strong real estate sales last month, hovering near a nine-year high.
Local real estate agents sold 372 homes and condominiums in July, a 22 percent increase compared to a year earlier, according to data from the Northwest Multiple Listing Service. The highest monthly total in the past nine years was 398, set in August 2007.
The July sales total follows up a busy May and June in which 325 and 378 homes and condos sold. This string of strong sales has led to a dip in available homes: Whatcom County has 3.5 months of inventory, according to the data. Typically six months' inventory is considered a balanced market.
The median price for those homes sold last month was $277,882, up 4.9 percent compared to July 2014.
Across the 23 Washington counties the NWMLS serves, 9,424 homes sold in July, a 19.6 percent increase compared to a year earlier. Skagit County recorded 193 sales, a 22.2 percent increase.

Critics Corner
The Cynosure
From 1880-1930 the anarchist movement existed relatively undisturbed in Argentina. It was a mostly workers movement, based on the urban and industrial proletariat.
1871: The first organized activity affiliated with the First International did not occur in the country until the arrival of several exiles from the repression that followed the fall of the Paris Commune in 1871. *
1875: Backlash of the international capitalist crisis created a large number of immigrants in Buenos Aires without work. The First International was then able to rally and recruit new members and support.^
1885-1889: Errico Malatesta, Italian anarcho-communist, lives in Argentina and helps expose and popularize the anarchist ideology. Mamatestas Questione Sociale had immense influence over Italian workers.
1897: Anarchist newspaper La Protesta is founded.
1901: Federacion Obrera Argentina (FOA), or the Argentine Workers Federation, was created. Members were varying anarchists and socialists. The organizations principles were influenced largely by Pellicer Paraires series of articles on Labor Organization in La Protesta Humana. Paraire suggested a dual organizational structure for labor federation. This called for two branches, one to focus on and represent issues of the economy and trade, and the other was to be a revolutionary and anarchist branch, serving as the philosophical foundation for the Federation. Within a year the FOA had split up, but between about 8,000 of the previous 10,000 members stayed with the federation and were able to establish an anarchist hegemony in unions. Following the rapid growth of trade-unionism the Federacion Obrera Regional Argentina (FORA) was created and largely inspired by Italian Anarchist Pietro Gorri. The unions associated with FORA were considered one of the principle means of spreading the anarchist ideal amongst the proletariat.*
1902: First general strike, state responds with force. This was the first time that workers in Argentina had demonstrated their growing social and political influence on the national scale. As a result of the deteriorating labor relations between the state and the unions the state imposed a ley de residencia, or law or residency, which was used to expel hundreds of anarchists and foreign born workers from Argentina.
1907: the Departamento Nacional de Trabajo (National Labor Department) was established with the purpose of enforcing reformed labor laws (including legislation designating Sunday as a day of rest and regulating the condition and hours as pertains to women and child workers), to collect statistics on working conditions and serve as a mediator for all labor disputes.
May 1, 1909: Commonly known as May Day. Argentine police open fire on a FORA (previously FOA) demonstration, killing several activists.
November 13, 1909: Simon Radowizki a young anarchist Jew, throws a bomb at the car of the Chief of Police, Colonel Ramon Ralcon, the man blamed for the demonstration bloodshed, killing him and his secretary.
1910: FORA attempts, but ultimately fails to mobilize enough support, to lead demonstrations and opposition policy against the laws of residency.
1919: La Semana Tragica, or the tragic week, begins on January 7 when police launch an attack on workers, who had been striking for several days, at the Vasrna Metallurigical plant, killing some. In retaliation, a general strike, backed by anarchists and syndicalists, was called for January 10 and 11. As a result, Socialist press in the area recorded 700 dead, over 55,000 imprisoned and 4,000 injured. The Argentine government and media publicly cited the strikes as the work of foreign agitators. Following these events the decline of anarchism in Argentina became more prominent.
This year membership of FORA reaches 20,000.
1920: Argentine army intervenes in an uprising of agricultural laborers, led by anarchists, in Patagonia. The uprising was repressed and about 1,500 were killed at the hands of firing squads.
Throughout the 1920s the anarchist movement was weakened by the success of the Bolsheviks. The movement was in a constant state of ebb until FORA merges with the socialist Union General de Trabajadores to form the Confederacion General de Trabajadores in 1929. During the rule of President Peron the movement moved underground. In 1955 the Argentine Anarcho-Communist Federation (founded 1935) became the Argentine Liberation Front (FLA). Today FORA exists solely as a propaganda group.

The 12th Jerusalem Jewish Film Festival, which takes place at the Jerusalem Cinematheque from December 4-10, features a great selection of films that reflect the multiplicity of contemporary Jewish life. The 50 films in the festival run the gamut from dramatic family sagas and crime films to silly comedies and serious documentaries.The festival will open with the animated film Mary and Max. Directed by Adam Elliot, the movie tells the story of Mary (voiced by Toni Collette), a girl in Melbourne who, through a coincidence, becomes pen pals with Max (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a lonely Jewish New Yorker with Asperger syndrome. The gently comic film is done in the labor-intensive claymation animation process that was used in the Wallace and Gromit series.Mary and Max will be preceded by a performance by the eclectic Jerusalem band Marshdondurma.Franz Weisz, a Dutch director, will attend the festival and receive a Lifetime Achievement Award. His trilogy of films about a contemporary Dutch Jewish family will be screened at the festival. The first film, Polonaise (1989), was co-written with Dutch-Jewish poet Judith Herzberg and was based on her 1982 play. Polonaise deals with the wedding of two young Jews that is clouded by the Holocaust memories of both the bride's and groom's families. Weisz followed this up with Qui vive (2001) and Happy End (2009).Shmuel Atzmon, the founder and director of the Israeli Yiddishshpiel Theater, is also being honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award. To mark 150 years since the birth of Sholom Aleichem, a filmed version of the Aleichem play The Little People, starring Atzmon, will be shown. The cast featured The Three Shmueliks – Atzmon, along with Shmuel Rodenski and Shmulik Segal. At the end of the film, Atzmon, Ya'acov Bodo and Yisrael Treistman will take to the stage and perform the end of the play.Although a huge number of comedians are Jewish, lately comedies with Jewish themes are few and far between for some reason. But the film Oy Vey! My Son Is Gay!" will add a few laughs to the line-up. Veteran crooner and actress Lainie Kazan, who is now on Desperate Housewives and was recently seen in You Don't Mess with the Zohan, stars in the film, along with Saul Rubinek, Carmen Electra and Vince Pastore (of The Sopranos).Jewish crime will be covered in Holy Rollers, which stars Jesse Eisenberg as a cash-strapped New York Hassid who gets involved in smuggling Ecstasy tablets from Amsterdam to New York. In L'Armee du crime, an acclaimed drama, Simon Abkarian stars as a poet who joins the French Resistance movement in World War II Paris.The documentaries in the festival are also varied. Lilly Rivlin will lead a discussion after a showing of her film Grace Paley: Collected Shorts, with Prof. Sidra DeKoven Ezrahi, about the legacy of the brilliant, eccentric writer.Film historian and veteran Jerusalem Cinematheque staff member Costel Safirman co-directed the documentary And They Went Away Like the Wind with Radu Gabrea. The film tells the fascinating story of the Barasheum Theater, which was founded in Romania in 1941 by a group of Jewish performers, writers and composers who had been expelled from Romanian theaters by racist laws. The Barasheum Theater was a bastion of cultural resistance to Nazism and operated until 1944 in the most difficult of circumstances. Before the film there will be a tribute to the theater, which will feature Lia Konig and pianist Miriam Reznic-Wolf, as well as Safirman and Gabrea.

Should comparing public and private sector employees be legal in contract talks?
As state and national economies continue to struggle, more and more claims have been made in recent years that taxpayer-funded public employees are paid too much, pay too little for health insurance and have handsome pensions compared to many in the private sector.
There is no dispute, says Peter Fisher, research director at the Iowa Policy Project in Iowa City, that there has been a "campaign across the country" the last couple of years to portray public workers as overcompensated, a campaign which he says has been fueled by conservative businesses, individuals and think tanks.
"And I think it's been pretty successful," Fisher says.
The Iowa Public Employment Relations Act states that Iowa's public-sector employers and bargaining-unit employees "shall" compare the wages, hours and conditions of employment of their past contracts and the contracts of "other public employees doing comparable work"when public-sector employers and employees negotiate new contracts.
Since the mid-1970s, that language in the state law by and large has resulted in the exclusion of private-sector compensation comparisons during public-sector contract negotiations in Iowa.
What do you think of the law as it stands? Should negotiators be able to compare public- and private-sector workers when working out contracts for public employees?

She has a very good eye for composition and lighting and runs her life at a million miles a minute, darting here and there for photoshoots in different cities and industry events, whilst being there for her family too. She laughed when I presented her with this option as she felt the shape was exactly her! I love it when magic happens like that.

The european space agency or E.S.A. for short has published some of the results from its Rosetta's mission to land a probe on P67/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The news isn't as good as we had hoped. For years there had been a theory that the makeup of a comet was that it was made of amongst other things water (H2O) and that they seeded life on the Earth. The lander probe has identified the comet has Deuterium also known as Heavy Water. Deuterium is different to Hydrogen in that it has a neutron whereas Hydrogen has none. 1. Researchers are now turning their attention to asteroids. 2 . Not a waste of money before some might cry foul, if we hadn't gone, we wouldn't have known and stuff that we developed as part of the mission could later be used by everyone. Artificial Limb development is one area being aided by N.A.S.A. space exploration. 3.

Tenby South Beach stretches about a mile from the town to Giltar Point and looks out towards Caldey Island, about 2 miles offshore. A P&D car park is positioned behind the beach and access to the shore is a short walk over the sand. Toilets ♿ and drinking water are available, and a bar / restaurant and ice-cream parlour (both with outdoor seating) have recently opened at the back of the beach. The shore is made up of sand and some pebbles, backed by dunes covered in sea buckthorn. Being east facing, offshore winds occur frequently, so inflatable craft should be used with caution.
Lifeguards patrol from Easter until early September (10am - 6pm) and dog restrictions apply between the beach access point and Castle Beach, 1st May to 30th September. Dogs are allowed on most of the beach south of the main access.
The southern end of South Beach is known as Penally Beach (pronounced 'Pen-alley') and is a 5 minute level walk along a tarmac footpath from Penally railway station, which has a small (free) car park and toilets. A strong rip current occurs near Giltar Point, and swimmers should avoid this area. Dogs are allowed at all times on Penally Beach.
Surf conditions can be good here on a big swell and when other beaches are blown out. It's a good beginners' beach and also popular with windsurfers.
Tenby has excellent facilities, including a Tourist Information Centre, pubs, cafes, hotels, B&B's, shops, a supermarket and a railway station (about 10 minutes walk).

#TravelWith Series: Six Things You Have to Consider Before Traveling with Your Friends
Traveling with your friends is exciting— that's for sure! Imagine going on a getaway to relax and unwind with breathtaking views, delicious dishes, and perfect company. It's amazing. It's a dream. Only to find out that it actually isn't. Because to be honest, traveling with your friends can be a real challenge to maintaining friendships. In reality, you have to consider a few things carefully before going on a trip with your friends and put your friendship to test because…
1. You'll be living with your friends under the same roof
Do your friends' bedside manners freak you out? Can you tolerate how they take care of their laundry or take out toothpaste from the tube? Good news! You're going to have to deal with all that if you'll be sharing a hotel room or an apartment with them. It's always fun to hang out with your friends. But it's also different if you will literally have to live with them. If some of your rare sleepovers turn into horror stories, good luck when you have to do it for at least two consecutive nights. It's highly likely that you'll learn at least one new thing about them during this course. But whether it would be a good or bad thing— it's for you to find out.
2. You'll be with your friends 24/7 for X number of days
Speaking of living under the same roof, you're also traveling together. So, that means that you'll be with your friends 24/7 except for maybe what, bathroom breaks? You'll see each other when you wake up in the morning and right before you go to sleep at night. God forbid if your friend will still make it as a special guest in your dreams! There's a tendency for you to get tired of seeing your friends' face or hearing their voices all the freaking time. Depends on your tolerance level a.k.a. how clingy you can be.
3. You'll have to deal with your friends in the mornings
Oh, the perks of living together— even for a short while. You're doomed if you or your friend aren't morning persons because mornings can be tough. What if you have an itinerary planned out early on but someone stops caring about the timeline and sleeps in halfway through the day? That can't be good! I say bring coffee, so you or your friend goes back to being a human and stops being a sleeping monster.
4. You and your friends might get into it when things don't go according to plan
Okay. This one's serious. Sometimes, especially when everyone's already tired in the group, petty discussions escalate into heated arguments. And we don't want that. It's a no-no. What if you've assigned tasks to everyone but someone forgets an essential part of the trip? For some reason, decision making while traveling could be quite stressful especially if they should be done at the last minute and involve a large group. There's a tendency that we act upon frustration and do the blame game instead of finding the solution to the problem.
5. You don't have the same travel lifestyle with your friends
Coming from the same group of friends doesn't mean that it's impossible for you to have different lifestyles. So, before you even plan to travel, ask yourself: do you think you can work things out between budget, interests, and attitude? If the answer is yes— then great for you. But if you hesitate, then it's a sign for you to think about it carefully.
Sometimes, it's not even about the interests. Are you afraid to try out something new or just a plain old killjoy who doesn't want to go out of your comfort zone? It could get annoying when you're having a great time, but someone's dragging the group down. So, make sure that your friends are also pumped with adrenaline, so everybody's happy making new awesome memories together!
6. You don't get to agree on one decision
Disagreements may happen even before your trip. Because of your differences, sometimes, it's hard to come up with a single decision. Itineraries can be very challenging to construct. Sometimes, even the number of your travel days sparks conflict already! During the travel, others may want to go separate ways for a few moments while others would vote for sticking together through thick and thin.
Traveling with friends, unlike going solo, can be both scary and exciting at the same time. It's exhilarating because you're expecting to live your best life with your best friends. What's not to love about that? Isn't it all rainbows and butterflies? But at the same time, it can also be scary. It is a risk that you should be willing to take. And I'm pretty sure that after raising some points above, it's going to be pretty hard not to think about it at all.
But even though I've constructed each item in this post as if traveling with friends is such a pain to even think about, I would still do it with my barkada in a heartbeat— even if what I've listed above could be just the tip of the iceberg. Because whether you travel alone, with your friends, colleague or family, there will always be pros and cons. Everything we do in life is a risk after all! And if you haven't noticed yet, every possible clash or cons only boils down to one thing: differences. So, what do we need here?
I say it's just one word: Compromise. Big word, right? But that's the truth, and that's what we truly need. At the end of the day, you won't even have to think about your friends snoring so loud that the adjacent room will complain so you can decide. What you need to contemplate on is if you are capable of compromising so that everyone can have a great time.
So, what do you say? Can you take the biggest challenge of them all?

This is the first series of "Black Adder" and the only truly great one. The scripts are masterpieces of TV comedy writing – one belly laugh after another, and all perfectly structured plotwise, while at the same time being bizarre, original and very intelligent, without resorting to the pointless unfunny absurdity of lower quality Python. There are too many highlights to single out any particular episode or scene. They are the finest thing Richard Curtis or Rowan Atkinson would ever write.
For me the first series was right up there in the pantheon alongside Fawlty Towers and Peep Show. It made me understand for the first time why Rowan Atkinson was so admired as a comic actor. I still laugh when I remember his Earl of Doncaster impersonation or the way he said "Hello peasant!" His effeminately weedy deer-in-the-headlights persona is a joy. His life really seems to be threatened in every episode. The supporting cast is also outstanding, especially Brian Blessed, Miriam Margoyles, Frank Finlay and Jim Broadbent as the show-stealing Spanish translator. Their acting considerably enhances the jokes. In fact there is not a dud performance in the whole series, helped no doubt by the absence of Fry and Laurie (they wouldn't have fitted in with this one) along with Ben Elton.
The usual and irrelevant complaint about the first series is that the character of Edmund is contemptible, stupid and weedy rather than strong, clever and sarcastic. But the original Edmund is for laughing at, rather than laughing with. The former category of comic characters are invariably much funnier, while the latter is the domain of unfunny standup comedians desperately trying to be loved. Perhaps having a strong, admirable lead character gives the audience somebody to identify with rather than mock and deprecate, but I struggle to understand why that is desirable in a comedy. I never could understand why Ben Elton's sub-Carry On humour in the later series was more highly regarded by some.
Perhaps it is because the later series had a louder laugh track. Although the budget may have been considered exorbitant, it allowed for much more variety in the type and setting of the jokes than the later studio bound, cheap-looking and visually tedious series. The large budget wasn't wasted, but used to good comic effect, especially in crowd scenes like the witch trial. The opening theme is perhaps the grandest original theme song ever heard in a TV comedy. We may never see television comedy with such high production standards ever again, so enjoy this one. It is one of the few comedies that bears repeated viewing.

Sometime during my several months of photography experience, I learned that i am starting to enjoy taking pictures of people, especially when they are in their element. A candid picture, if you will, that captures them as I see it then. I am obviously still as green as chlorophyll, So I wanted to do more, more and more of these portraits.
The object above is of my friend, a great 3D artist whose work you can see here. Aside from a 3D artist, over and times again, she has proven to be a good model. Another friend of mine has asked her to be a model for another, darker piece of art, and she blended in very nicely.
I should do more of this; and I will.

Dual Alpha13C/Delta18O response to water and nitrogen availability and its relationship with yield in field-grown durum wheat.
Published in Plant Cell and Environment 34(3): 418-433, 2011
Dual Alpha13C/Delta18O response to water and nitrogen availability and its relationship with yield in field-grown durum wheat
Cabrera-Bosquet L.; Albrizio, R.; Nogues, S.; Araus, J.L.
The combined use of stable carbon and oxygen isotopes in plant matter is a tool of growing interest in cereal crop management and breeding, owing to its relevance for assessing the photosynthetic and transpirative performance under different growing conditions including water and N regimes. However, this method has not been applied to wheat grown under real field conditions. Here, plant growth, grain yield (GY) and the associated agronomic components, carbon isotope discrimination (Δ13C) plus oxygen isotope composition (δ18O) as well as leaf and canopy gas exchange were measured in field-grown wheat subjected to different water and N availabilities. Water limitation was the main factor affecting yield, leaf and canopy gas exchange and Δ13C and δ18O, whereas N had a smaller effect on such traits. The combination of Δ13C and δ18O gave a clear advantage compared with gas exchange measurements, as it provides information on the instantaneous and the long-term plant photosynthetic and transpirative performance and are less labour intensive than gas exchange measurements. In addition, the combination of plant Δ13C and δ18O predicted differences in GY and related agronomical parameters, providing agronomists and breeders with integrative traits for selecting crop management practices and/or genotypes with better performance under water-limiting and N-limiting conditions.

Hail storm destroys Kullu's apple crop
Kullu, May 9 (ANI): A hail storm in Himachal Pradesh's Kullu District has destroyed nearly eighty percent of the area's apple crop.
"Our production of apple was very good, but 70-80 percent of crop has been destroyed by a hail storm. It's getting very tough for us. There is no compensation for the destruction as there are big marks on the apples," said Tule Ram, an apple grower.
The hail storm has not only damaged fruit, but also apple tree leaves and spur, which is not a good sign for the upcoming season.
"The hail storm was so devastating that a very large number of apple trees were destroyed. All the apples have got big marks on them. So, with this hailstorm 70-80 percent of apple crop got destroyed and we are getting news of destruction from many parts," said A K Gupta, Deputy Director Horticulture.
As a consequence, incomes of apple grower's have been shaken.
Almost 100,000 hectares of land in the hilly state, including districts of Shimla, Kullu, Kinnaur, Mandi and Chamba, are under apple production. (ANI)

Supporting local communities
Help Clubs with Outreach & Events
We try to help causes, individuals and organisations that inspire us. People who make this world a little bit brighter, more interesting or challenge the status quo and stand up for others. We aim to give 7% of our net profits and over 200 hours volunteering each year.
Some of the organisations we've supported recently include: Concern; Girls Gotta Run, Ethiopia; Little Stars School, India; Livelihood Project: Empower Women in Ghana; Tiny Life; Trees for the Future and Wikipedia.
We've coached and/or been on committees for 25 years, so we practice what we preach. In 2017, Liam McGarry, founder of McGarry Consulting, was nominated for Sport NI Community Coach of the Year, having been Athletics NI Volunteer of the Year. Previously, Liam was Chair of Bredagh GAC, co-founded Belfast Running Club, founded Belfast Falcons, helped set-up Jog Belfast and on the Management Committee of Rosario YFC (the largest amateur football club in NI). He was also on the Games Organising Committee of the 2003 Special Olympics World Summer Games and the 2006 Special Olympic Ireland National Games; and was a mentor with Young Enterprise NI.
Louis Armstrong had it right, what a beautiful world. We're keen to keep it that way and welcome any advice people can give us. For our part, we strive by five simple steps:
supporting local environment
McGarry Consulting sponsored land within Belvoir Forest through the Woodland Trust
1. Lead by example. Use common-sense to reduce, recycle and re-use where you can; and prioritise environmentally friendly and/or ethically sourced goods where you can.
2. Go paperless. We don't print documents. We encourage technology and recycled paper where required.
3. Use technology. Skype and similar services can greatly reduce the need for travel and low value meetings. Free services like Google Drive, Doodle, Dropbox, Sli.do etc can make sharing documents, arranging meetings, and answering questions much more efficient.
4. Be pro-active. Learn from others, work with partners and try to promote adoption of more environmentally friendly practices.
5. Plant trees. We want a positive legacy, and the most effective and enjoyable way for us to do that was to plant trees. We've sponsored parts of our local forest and plant 100 trees through Trees for the Future for every new project we get.

Cucumber and Strawberry Caprese
Lately Siena and I have been having dinner together. Brian has been traveling and I have been noticing a trend. I have been trying to make dinners that adapt to Siena as well. Not only so I am not making a bunch of different dishes. But because I also desperately want to teach her to eat what we are eating. That is how my thought for the "Mommy and Me Meals" series came to mind. First up is a cucumber and strawberry caprese, a perfect healthy meal for mommies and tiny fingers.
For the mommy version I simply chopped up cucumber, strawberry, and red onion. You can also add chickpeas or avocado. Then I dressed it with a simple olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing. For Siena, I chopped up the strawberries, mozzarella balls, and I sliced the cucumber. It seems slicing the cucumber works best for her to chew on being she has no teeth. Then added a side of hummus for some protein and dipping option. For her I omit the salt and pepper. However, I do toss the strawberries and mozzarella in a little bit of olive oil and balsamic, she seemed to love it!
For all I know next week Siena will not eat this! Feeding little ones is a lot of trial and error keep that in mind. Some days she is cranky and doesn't eat well. Other days all she wants is everything off my plate. Also, her only having one tooth makes it challenging. However, she really can gum down anything if she wants too! I am always seated in front of her watching. Vegetables and fruits with skin are a challenge. I often peel things or stay away from them. Some foods that are drier like chicken and turkey can be challenging as well. But we are finding ways to make everything more palatable one step at a time!
Please not that I am NOT a nutritionist, pediatrician, health coach, or anything of that sort. I am a home cook and new mommy. I am learning a long the way and sharing with you. What works for my child may not work for yours. What I feel is safe for her is based on my own experience, discussions with my doctors, and just general knowledge of MY child. I feed her based on what I am comfortable with. Please consult with your doctor and listen to your mommy instincts when feeding your child. These posts serve as me sharing personal experience in hopes that maybe it sparks and idea or thought for you!
Cucumber and Strawberry Caprese
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp black pepper
fresh strawberries
mozzarella balls (I buy the "Ciliegine" size)
For the mommy salad- combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix to incorporate. Make sure to adjust the seasoning to your liking.
In a separate bowl combine mozzarella strawberries. Lightly drizzle with vinegar and olive oil, and toss. Cut the cucumber in slices or in sticks. Whichever way you feel you baby prefers. Serve with hummus on the side!

Hi Pastor Bob,
I too would love to know when judicial commissions, and standing or permanent ones as well, worked their way into the American Presbyterian system.
Like you, I have found that 18th and early 19th century writings make no mention of them. The earliest reference I could find was for 1867 for the southern PCUS, and that was not a standing commission.
I wrote about some of this back in April
and one comment quoted the UPCNA from 1911 about judicial commissions but again not permanent ones.
If I get the time someday I'll try to have track down some sources on this but for now I share your interest in this question.
Thanks for your comments and insights on the topic.

@Steve: I read your blog on GA Junkie. I think you are right, that the proposed FOG could bring us lots of trouble. I served on a task force to study the original nFOG that went to the 2008 GA. I have not read the new one (I was serving on an Investigating Committee which gave me far more information about the disciplinary process that I ever have wanted). My big question is how does a totally new FOG affect precedent of authoritative interpretation?

Trends and movements come and go, but one that has remained a hot topic for some time now is STEM education and its importance in educating our future workforce. STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education has received so much attention in the last decade that numerous research studies have been conducted to investigate the importance of STEM education on today's students.
This article provides information that might be useful in writing a grant proposal to support STEM education. It also demonstrates how important the funding of STEM education is to our future.
Why STEM Education is Important
According to the National Science Resources Center (NSRC), "In 2005, for the first time, the United States lost its lead in world economic competitiveness and dropped to sixth place." Additionally, NSRC offers several statistics that emphasize the U.S.'s general lack of proficiency in science. These statistics include:
- 68% of parents do not feel scientifically literate.
- 64% of elementary school teachers do not feel scientifically literate.
- In an international science test given to 21 different countries, U.S. 12th graders ranked 16th. Only 40% of the U.S. students taking that test understood the basic concepts.
NSRC, along with other groups and experts, contend that science and science-related fields of study are essential parts of students' well-rounded development. Further, the shortage of engineers in the US has reached a critical stage.
Technology, many argue, is a new literacy in today's world, and without being technologically literate, today's students will be at a major disadvantage, not only throughout their schooling, but also as adults in a competitive workforce. However, American students are falling behind. Bill Gates, Chairman of Microsoft Corporation, said, "When I compare our high schools to what I see when I'm traveling abroad, I am terrified for our workforce of tomorrow."
STEM Teaching Techniques
According to NSRC, research has shown that children who experience inquiry-based science education score higher on assessments and inquiry-based techniques have been effective in closing the widely discussed "achievement gap," or the difference in scores between racial and socioeconomic groups of students. Inquiry-based teaching techniques have also been shown to increase student motivation and develop important workplace skills such as team work and problem solving. Known by a variety of names - inquiry-based, experiential and project-based to name a few - these teaching techniques are effective in a variety of disciplines and is well suited to teaching the STEM topics.
STEM Career Opportunities
The AT&T document "The Importance of STEM Education" states that STEM jobs are expected to grow by 17% over the next six years with approximately 2.8 million jobs available. Many STEM jobs, even high-paying ones, are currently unfilled because workers lack the necessary skills, training, or degrees. As a result, grant funds from a wide variety of foundations and governmental programs are available for STEM programs. For a list of some of these grant opportunities, please see our STEM Grant Opportunities page.

10 Cannabis Strains to Listen to this Weekend Cannabis Personified, Vol. 2
Welcome to Vol. 2 of Cannabis Personified! I'm back with a new list of strains and my top 10 favorite tracks of the week.
As always, if you'd like to listen to this playlist as you read, you can do so on Spotify's Web Player here.
Lemon Pineapple - John & The Volta - Howling Waterfall
As a fan of Pineapple, it's hard to imagine it could get any more Pineapple-y than it already is. But at last, a strain called Lemon Pineapple does exactly that. It's an exponentially happier and energetic experience that's beyond willing to help elevate your day; So much so that you'll find yourself climbing new heights altogether. John & The Volta's Howling Waterfall more than exudes this vibe. The way the melody wanders, often soaringly, from one moment of euphoria to the next, you can't go rotten kicking off your day with this pairing.
Obama Kush - Lana Del Ray (with The Weeknd) - Lust for Life
This strain is more than just the name of a fellow ex-president. It's the pinnacle of floaty relaxation. Lana and The Weeknd have once again blown us away with this dreamy pop duet about the fleeting moments life throws our way. Seek out some Obama Kush at your local dispensary and embed this deep-hearted duo into your sweetest dreams.
Chocolate Rock - Kauf - A Ruin
Kauf's A Ruin is led by transcendental synth leads that are entrancing and so completely taken away by its own transcendence that it exercises its right to wonder to the very end. Part pop-fueled and part cloudy on a rainy day with a little pep in its step, Chocolate Rock will break into your nose with a fruity aroma that'll linger far after the fact.
Cherry Pie Kush - OBESØN - Try To Explain It
Highly spliced and diced vocal fragmentation takes the spotlight in Try to Explain It. The song, like the strain, has a cerebral effect that's not overly sedative, and coincidentally, the kind of flower (and song) that suits any time of day and mood. Durban Poison, Grandaddy Purple, and SFV OG parented Cherry Pie Kush, so it's no surprise that its effects feel well-balanced. Recommended for those who need to recenter.
Old School - Zola Blood - Nothing
Zola Blood's latest single, Nothing, is a meditative, trance-like, rocket ship launched into space sort of feel. It's contemplative and dark, slow to start, and slow to the beat. Old School's relaxing effects are the result of a 2:1 ratio of CBD to THC that soothes in all the right ways after a long day. My sole interpretation of CBD, especially when the CBD content outweighs the psychoactive effects provided by THC (which OS does), time seems to slow to the extremity of a slow-motion video with voices enunciating words octaves lower than usual. Listen for the synth-ier background keys that contribute to the overall atmosphere and fall into them forever, as they run for miles.
Dr. Grinspoon - Goldielocks - Liquify
Admittedly, Dr. Grinspoon may have made the list based on its rich history alone. The strain was named after a Lester Grinspoon, Harvard professor and passionate cannabist during the 70s. Because it was designed for the seasoned intellectual, the strain naturally tends toward introspection. The name of the song by Goldielocks, Liquify, preserves this introspection in the way that its synths melt into each other, layer by layer, like waves splashing in reverse. Test it out on the dance floor with heightened sensory awareness and invigoration. Energy will not be a problem for Dr. Grinspoon.
Bubblegum Kush - Les Loup - Colourblind (feat. Cybil)
Bubblegum Kush is as euphoric as it gets without sacrificing comfort. Its bubbly and optimistic characteristics make it the perfect strain for Les Loup's Colourblind. 80s nostalgia plus strong female lead, infused with the innovative and complex musical inclinations of today, BBK can lead you to the dance floor or your bed all the same. But Colourblind might be better enjoyed…well, not in bed.
Sour Tsunami - Tei Shi - Keep Running
Oh the woes of an aging existence! Tei Shi's Keep Running ponders a time in life when one is riddled with angst over the constant transitions into adulthood that in time reflect physically as "age." Still, the message conveys acceptance, uplifts even. It's honest and real, scared but certain, never looking back. What better strain than Sour Tsunami to reflect in high spirits, to see it clearly, whatever it is you're looking at? Anticipate the future with this cultivar and then dance your way to it no matter what happens. Your body will be very agreeable under Sour Tsunami's medicinal spell.
White Russian - ToKiMONSTA - Giving Up (feat. Jonny Pierce)
The Drums' lead man Jonny Pierce joins TokiMONSTA for an electronic stroll through the town in the form of White Russian, a strain that crosses White Widow with AK-47 for a fairly hybridized experience. The track, a long way from the beach-y surf rock Pierce is used to, is amok with his stylistic vocals and character mood. Sparse but speedy at times, the beat (similar to the transitions WR makes when its effects change over the course of time) hangs till it comes to a full stop, finally ending on a definitive downbeat.
Tangie - M.I.A. - Platforms
I must say, matching a strain up with M.I.A.'s large personality was quite the task. In the end, it was only right it would be Tangie with its spunky vigor that tells it how it is when it needs to be told, and that's as representatively energetic as she is. Expelling the kind of attitude one requires when taking down the establishment is fundamental M.I.A.-ness. Cue no fucks given dance moves.

The Fourth Watch: A Call to Prayer
This morning as I went out the front door briefly on an errand and came back in, my eyes were drawn to our piano. So, I sat down on the bench. There was music there, but just to my left, on the candle stand, there was a service leaflet ... not sure how it got there. I picked it up and saw the familiar words of Psalm 134....Keep Reading

Wow – sold out event, great presentations, and insightful questions. Though the speakers pointed out that "it feels like work…" by the representation of Three Deep crew and clients on the front row, it felt great to me! I know the agency that knows what are they doing 🙂
Interestingly, the audience had many more agency representatives rather than in-house marketers… and it makes sense – the topic is new, it is complex… and it might be one of those "do not try it at home" areas when in-house marketing teams do need to get help of experts. I truly learned my lesson 🙂
Large organizations: how to avoid accidental publishing of tests, etc? Implement workflow rules (governance) – in this case it might be a good idea to borrow the governance from IT – as IT has multiple site users and already developed the workflow of content publishing.
We all love GTM… it is not 100% clear to me what is the additional benefit of paid tag management systems, besides, obviously, support. More to learn – as always!

EP and Live Review: POW! Negro Prove Why They Are one of the Most Exciting Perth Acts
On a freezing Saturday night, POW! Negro warmed the hearts and bodies of the packed Rosemount Hotel with their intense live set, proving exactly why they are one of the hottest bands out of Perth right now.
But first, let's talk about their new EP, Jasmine & Licorice. Like many others, this was a release I was eager to hear, being a huge fan of their live set and loving the singles released in the lead-up. And thankfully, I was not at all disappointed.
Jasmine & Licorice manages to capture the energy of their legendary live shows beautifully. Yet, as the band told us they were aiming for, the EP also showcases a different side to POW!. With the production doing wonders to encapsulate the mastery of each member in ways that live settings don't always allow. As always, the band take cues from seemingly disparate influences and blend them in unique and unexpected ways. For instance, my personal favourite 'Night Drive', which begins with a Queens of the Stone Age-esque riff, before seamlessly transitioning into a sultry jam. POW! Negro is a band full of virtuosos, and this EP showcases the dynamic nature of their sound perfectly.
Their EP launch got off to a good start, with a string of local acts delivering the goods. KNOE, the first to play, made good use of the intimate venue, inviting everyone to the front while he spit smooth wisdom over some sick Clams Casino-inspired beats. While not quite getting as many people to dance as they desired, The Weapon is Sound did manage to get most of the crowd swaying along to their cool blend of psychedelic rock, reggae and electronica, with plenty of guitar theatrics. The pick of the opening acts was undeniably Grievous Bodily Calm, however. Another one of our favourite upcoming Perth acts, the jazz group wowed the audience with an insanely tight performance, each member perfectly in sync with the others. It's worth noting that they came good with their promise of new music this week, and aren't we all glad about it! After hearing so much about them, I was thrilled to get the chance to witness these legends in person.
But the night belonged to the POW! Boys, and they delivered the best set I've ever seen them play. Clearly enjoying the energy given off by the packed crowd, Nelson Mondlane was perhaps the most hyped I'd seen him, riding the beats with ease while jumping about the stage. Drummer Rhys Hussey called him "Australia's best MC" at one point, and I'm inclined to agree with him. Meanwhile, the rest of the band were as spotless as I'd ever seen them, playing their often-difficult arrangements with absolute ease.
Of course, all the tracks from their new EP were given their moment to shine (plus a cover and an oldie or two), with 'Racketball' kicking off proceedings (proceeded by an atmospheric scene-setter). 'Money for Portraits' was a total crowd-pleaser, as usual, instigating plenty of moshing and crowd-surfing. For the final three tracks, POW brought out select brass players from the WA Youth Jazz Orchestra, which finished the night on a high like no other. The extra brass gave already-amazing tracks like set-closer 'Hidle Ho!' an incomparable boost, and I'd love to see them collaborate more in the future. Besides, who doesn't want to mosh to a few brass instruments?
POW! Negro have earnt their place in the spotlight. It was crystal clear on Saturday night that they have more than a few adoring fans, and I well and truly count myself as one of them. This is a band that NEEDS to be massive… and let me tell you, having Nelson Mondlane scream the words right into your face is a glorious experience that money can't buy.

Tiger Nuts Benefit Your Health In These 7 Ways!
If you are someone who loves nuts, then you would definitely be familiar with popular nuts such as almonds, cashews, pistachios, etc.
Well, the good news is that there are a number of other lesser known nuts which are very nutritious as well as tasty!
Image Source:
If we want our health to benefit from natural ingredients, we must make a conscious effort to know more about the numerous natural ingredients available and their health benefits.
A number of natural ingredients has the ability to not only treat certain diseases but also prevent them.
In fact, India is the land of Ayurveda, which is an alternate form of medical science, that uses natural ingredients to prepare remedies to improve our health. As we know, nuts are extremely healthy, nutritious and also make for great snacks for people trying to eat healthy.
So, here are a few facts and health benefits of these lesser known nuts - tiger nuts!
Firstly, tiger nuts may be called 'nuts', because of their appearance, but in reality, they are a form of tubers grown under the soil surface, just like groundnuts and potatoes!
Hence tiger nuts are also called as 'earth almonds', as they grow under the soil surface. It is said that these nuts have been used since times immemorial, as evidence of their usage has been found by archaeologists even during the Paleolithic era.
Tiger nuts were mainly used in the preparation of natural remedies to treat various diseases, as they possess certain medicinal properties.
About 40 g of raw tiger nuts contain:
• 120 calories,
• 27 g of carbohydrates
• 10 g of fibre, 2 g of protein
• 8 g of fat
• 1.8 mg of iron
• 28 mg of magnesium
• 215 mg of potassium
• 1.1 mg of zinc
• 0.1 mg of vitamin B6.
Health experts have stated that, consuming anywhere around 20 g to 40 g (quarter cup) of tiger nuts every day is healthy and allows you to get your daily nutritional requirements needed for good health.
1. Comes with antibacterial properties
2. Improves heart health
3. Controls diabetes
4. Improves male libido
5. Strengthens bones
6. Improves muscles health
7. Boosts digestion
Research studies have found that consuming tiger nuts on a regular basis can help prevent bacterial infections, as it comes with antibacterial properties which can kill bacteria.
As tiger nuts have the ability to lower the bad cholesterol levels (LDL levels) in the body, they can not only keep your cholesterol levels healthy but also improve heart health and prevent heart diseases, as most of the heart diseases are caused due to high cholesterol.
As tiger nuts are high in insoluble fibre content, they can help regulate the blood sugar levels in diabetic patients, thus aiding them to keep the diabetes under control and lead a normal life.
A research study conducted in 2015, concluded that tiger nuts have the ability to improve the sex drive or libido, in men, as the minerals in tiger nuts have the ability to improve the testosterone levels, which enable sexual performance. These nuts can also treat erectile dysfunction.
As tiger nuts are rich in protein and magnesium, they have the ability to improve the health of your bones and strengthen them, thus keeping you more active and preventing diseases such as osteoporosis.
Tiger nuts are rich in potassium. This mineral is very much essential to keep up the health of the muscles, so, consuming tiger nuts on a regular basis can help prevent muscle soreness, muscle cramps and muscle contractions, effectively.
The various minerals, along with fibre, present in tiger nuts, have the ability to improve your digestive health, by keeping the secretions of digestive acids under control while preventing, gas, bloating and constipation.
