Weber grill covers have changed dramatically in terms of quality over the years. Weber covers used to last for 5-7 years (longer than the lifetime of the grills made by many of Weber's competitors).
Around 2012 the quality standards dropped on these covers and they typically only lasted for two years.
In 2015 the durability of the covers improved and included a three year warranty. While the current Weber grill covers are not as durable as they were "back in the good old days" they are still better than they were a few years ago.
I have included links to the covers for the older Weber gas grills. Many of these covers are the original high quality versions that should last many years.
Weber Q Grill Covers
The Weber Q grill family has small, medium and large grill sizes. The small grills (100/1000 series) and medium grills (200/2000 series) can be used on an outdoor counter top or mounted on a cart. The larger grills (300/3000 series) are only sold as a cart mounted version.

Weber Spirit Grill Covers
There are several different grills sold under the Spirit line that are all shaped a little bit different.
For the classic Spirit grills such as the Spirit 500, 700 and 900 you are not going to find an original, perfect fitting, Weber cover. My best recommendation is to go with the cover that is currently being made for the Genesis grills. This cover will be a little large but should work just fine.
Cover for the Weber Spirit 500, 700 and 900 grills.
The newer Spirit grills consist of the 210, 220 and 300.
The Spirit 210 can be stored with the side tables either up or down. If you want to cover your Spirit 210 with the side tables down then the correct cover is the Weber 7105.

The official cover for the other Spirit grills is Weber 7106. Based upon the Amazon reviews and feedback that I have received it sounds like this cover does not fit very well.
I suggest getting the cover designed for the Genesis for your Spirit grill. This cover will be a little large but at least it will be able to cover your grill.

Weber Genesis Grill Covers
There are two sizes of covers for Genesis grills.
The cover Weber 7107 fits the newer Genesis 300 grills, the classic Genesis 1000 series grill and the Genesis Silver A and B. The cover will be a little large for the Genesis Silver A but will work okay.
The cover Weber 7552 fits the older Genesis grills that had an extended side table. This cover fits the Genesis Gold B/C, Genesis Silver C and the rare 2000 through 5000 grills.
If you have a Genesis Platinum B or C then the official Weber grill covers are no longer available. The best alternative I have found for these grills is a cover made by Classic Accessories.

Weber Summit Grill Covers
If you have an older Summit that has 4 burners then the official Weber cover (9892) is no longer available. These grills include the Summit Silver A/B/D, Summit Gold A4/B4/C4 and Summit Platinum A4/B4/C4.
The best alternative I have found for these grills is a cover made by Classic Accessories.

Path originally launched last year with much buzz as a way for people to privately share photos with a small group of close friends and family, in a contrast to the emphasis on widely sharing on sites like Facebook and Twitter. With the new version launching today on iOS and Android, Path still enables people to share photos. But it's adding the ability to share a much wider range of activities and content. People can share music they're listening to, places they're visiting and people they're with. Where the posts become interesting are quick combinations where you can post that you're listening to a certain song, with a person, at a particular place.
The upshot is that Path, headed by former Facebook Platform executive Dave Morin, is seeking to become the essential all-in-one mobile app for sharing activities with close friends. Sound a little like what others like Facebook, Foursquare and Google are trying to do? Yes except that Path is focusing on a much more focused private social network than those other sites.
A new auto-sharing feature that could raise some eyebrows provides the ability for people to automatically post their locations periodically. For example, when someone moves from the Mission District to Bernal Heights, Path would auto-post: "John is in Bernal Heights." It can also auto-post when a person moves to a new city: "John has arrived in New York." The feature is completely opt-in and the app has to be actively "on" to auto-post. The idea, Morin says, is that people do not want to push buttons all the time to check-in and may feel comfortable with their close friends and family knowing where they are. It will be interesting to see if other location based apps add similar features.
The move also is a way to describe Path as more personal and intimate, which is what Morin is aiming for. That's because people are using Path to share photos or videos with their family members or a small circle of friends, he says.
Design is a major priority at Path, as two of its cofounders, Morin and Dustin Mierau, both worked on Apple products--Morin at Apple and Mierau on third-party Mac software. The new version of Path even more so than the original shows that focus. The app still has a stream of photos (and now all kinds of content) from family and friends. But it includes a variety of slick but unobtrusive animations. The main user interface tool to post content swirls and pops out for the user to choose the type of content. That animation alone took about six months to get perfectly right, Morin says. Then when an item is selected it pops in a strangely satisfying way before fading out. The main screen in the app went through 7 or 8 major changes to make it simple enough to fit everything on one screen. When I mentioned I'm reading the Steve Jobs book and Apple's focus on simplicity in design, Morin reeled off a number of influences from Apple. "We really authentically try to focus on very simple design. Another thing Apple talks about is you can achieve really good design and true simplicity if you stay in the problem long enough."
Notably, Path has three full-time designers in a startup of just twenty people, a relatively large number. This is in part because Path is releasing on iOS and Android at the same time. To have the same quality design on Android as iOS, Path hired an Android designer full-time. Morin, who talks passionately about design, says that for this version Path added an extra step to its design process. "We evolved the design process to fit the needs of mobile and the level of quality we're going after. The design process maps more to Apple or Pixar" than an app company, Morin says. While most startups would do a design mockup and translate that into engineering, Path focused on a process from the animation world. "You go to story-boarding then pre-animation then animation. We believe form and function are the same thing. Steve (Jobs) would say, 'You can't put lipstick on a pig.' Form and function are parallel not serial."
The app even has a feature for people to post when they go to sleep and wake up. When you post "sleep" it posts to your Path stream that you're asleep and turns off all notifications. When you come back it posts that you're awake and turns notifications on. The idea is to show a person's entire day, like a diary, says Morin. This feature also is designed to capture your personal sleep activity, in keeping with trends of growing companies like Fitbit, Jawbone Up and Lark that measure sleep or physical activity. More activity can be captured in the future.
Path, by enabling users to post not just photos and videos but music, places and other content, is going horizontal across a variety of mobile verticals. For example, Soundtracking posts music and Foursquare posts place check-ins. So in one sense Path is going after a very large vision: a sort of all-purpose app for sharing pretty much anything and everything. Though Morin says there are opportunities to work with many apps in specific verticals. And Path is more specific in one sense - it is just focusing on sharing with people's closest friends.
One question I had about Path was the limit on friends and if that is working, especially in comparison to other companies. There are many other photo apps such as Instagram that have large growth numbers. Path, meanwhile, started with a limit of 50 friends and later increased that to 150. The limit gave Path a focus, Morin says. "When you choose what to do, you also choose what not to do," Morin says. "We don't do public sharing (though you can post to other social networks). With Path the network is always by default private. Also just choosing a limit like that gives us a great deal of focus."

So Sunday saw a (no-cash) game of no-limit Texas Hold'em (poker) at Steve's. I went broke early, playing like a real dufus. However, taking over Jocelyn's stack saw me win the game. That's the first sucky thing…
Winning was achieved by a very lucky straight on the river (5th card), having to put all-in on the turn (4th card), just to stay in the round, and then another straight (an all-in?) right at the end. Today I find out, reading a post on Steve's blog, that we incorrectly had my straight beat his flush, and I should have been broke on my first straight. Steve writes:
8) I finally bought myself a poker set. (Thanks for the 2006 birthday present, Dad!). And we initiated it in a (no-cash) game of no-limit Texas Hold'em after a bring and braai at our place on Sunday. I was doing well, but Hugo, who went broke early, took over Jocelyn's stack when she had to leave after a short while. He slowly built up, and it came to a big pot where I had a flush. He showed a straight, and the page we had indicated a straight to be higher. Well, that knocked me hard, and I shortly went out in second place to Hugo. My later research shows that a flush is actually higher than a straight, so I am rather disappointed in my source. But we had a fun time anyway.
So, Steve, a rematch is required? (Hmm, maybe next semester? After 13 August maybe?) Or how would you like a whipping at Backgammon? 😉 I look forward to playing you when you start playing strategically, I want to know how deluded I am to think I'm good at Backgammon.

Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z Is A Horror Spinoff Coming To PS3, 360
Ninja Gaiden with zombies kinda makes sense. An almost superhuman hero with a really sharp weapon slashing through hordes of the shuffling undead.
Well, sure.
And now we know it's coming to the PlayStation 3. When Team Ninja initially announced their new project entitled Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z, studio boss Yosuke Hayashi didn't specify the intended platforms, just saying it was coming to "consoles."
Now, though, as revealed by Spark Unlimited job listings (spotted by Siliconera), the consoles that will receive this spinoff are, perhaps predictably, the PS3 and Xbox 360. Both consoles appear in the job descriptions for a senior character artist and a senior designer. Supposedly, this project boasts "a bold new take on third-person slasher" and we should also expect some "horror elements, too." That might not be exactly what Ninja Gaiden followers want but hey, spinoffs are big this generation.

its about time someone looked at the very popular zombie genre and tried to do something different with it!
as for the faithful, well, i think after NG3 there pretty much use to disappointment.
in fact expecting it.
i knew the series was dead as soon as tombonu and half his team left!
makes me so sad THQ dropped devils third, now that ubisoft are apparently after THQs licenses makes me wonder if they picked devils third up.
i hope so, id be so disappointing to see it get canned it looked so cool!
unique too, how often do we get a shooter and slasher?
last game i can remember was the criminal underrated WET!
instead of doing that naughty bear crap the devs really should do a wet sequel!

SIZE: A6: approx. width 100mm x height 150mm
PRICE: 48p each card. Minimum order £30 (e.g. 10 each of 6 cards = £28.80)
POSTAGE: UK post and packing is included in the price. Europe £6.00. Rest of World £10.00

I was delighted to be asked to design a set of six postcards for Pollock's Toy Museum. I had been taken there by my uncle when I used to visit London as a child. As a student at the Central School of Art I would wander around in my lunch hour, and later I took my own children there: nothing has changed. If you have never been, go now. It is a little piece of London history, old style.

The six postcards are letterpress printed in three and four colours by Tony Niepold at Smail's Printing Works in the Borders region of Scotland. The Original Heidelberg, installed in 1953, was the last machine that Smails ever purchased. The National Trust for Scotland took Smails into its care in 1986. It continues to be a genuine working printers using the old technology, and printing to the highest standards. Here Tony is guillotining my cards. The Heidelberg, a 'clam-shell' platen, is on the far right.

Hope everyone had an amazing weekend!
Just wanted to pop in and tell you about my experience at Corkbuzz. This was my third restaurant that I am featuring in the Dinner for Twelve series for the blog!
Corkbuzz is located in the Southpark area and is known for their extensive selection of wines. They offer classes where you can learn more about types, how to pair with food and just simply taste the wines.
I invited one of my favorite wine-loving friends and her boyfriend to join Daniel and I. We made sure to take our Plexus Block before indulging in all the wine!
The place settings are clean and simple.
We started out with a pinot noir. This particular one was from a winery in Oregon, called Runaway Red. There is an awesome story that goes along with this. But, you'll have to go in yourself to hear it! Seriously, that is one thing I loved about Corkbuzz. The staff told these amazing stories about every wine.
One thing on the menu that I loved were these flights. Three 3 oz glasses of a category of wine. My friend and I split the New World Pinot Noir and the 2015 selection of Rose.
Appetizers were served and no picture was taken. We got the brussell sprouts, which had fennel, marcona almonds, and cheese curds. The other couple ordered the grilled octopus, which had herb dumplings, bacon, macadamia nuts, and whipped feta.
Both phenomenal.
This is going to sound strange, but during the week, when I mentioned I was going to Corkbuzz, THREE separate people told me to get the burger. I knew my hubby was going to be happy! He is a beer and burger man for sure. It is a bourguignon burger with red wine fondue, bacon-mushroom relish, and served with french fries. Of course I had a bite and it absolutely melted in my mouth!
My friend ordered the crab linguine (Which they did with gluten-free pasta for her!) The Linguine dish had a ton of crab, english peas, castelvetrano olives, garlic confit, and farmer's cheese. Her boyfriend got the pork tenderloin which was cilantro rubbed, served with goat cheese potatoes, grilled romaine, and topped with blueberry jam.
I got the corvina sea bass which had artichokes, roasted brussels sprouts, and a charcuterie sauce.
Perks of being a blogger…we got dessert cocktails on the house. This also has a great story behind it. And it was very delicious too!
Will I go again?
I love the flights…I want to try them all! Plus, I gotta go back for those brussell sprouts. 🙂
Have and awesome week! xo

Low pressure brings light rain
Updated 2:26 pm, Tuesday, October 23, 2012
The sunshine was nice while it lasted.
Low pressure moving through the region today will see to it that we will see some rain, primarily this evening and Wednesday morning. Still, according to WTNH meteorologist Gil Simmons, it won't amount to much.
Highs on Tuesday will top out in the mid-60s, Simmons said. The sunshine should return by Thursday, when partly cloudy skies will prevail. Temperatures will rise as the week goes on, with highs on both Friday and Saturday flirting with the 70s.
Here is the rest of Simmons' eight-day forecast:
TODAY: Early sunshine. Clouds and some rain around noon-on. Doesn't look like much. Highs 61-64.
TONIGHT: Mainly cloudy with spotty rain. Lows 46-51.
WEDNESDAY: A little bit of rain early day. Not much. Cooler with highs around 60.
THURSDAY: Sun and lots of clouds. Highs 60-64
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 65-70.
SATURDAY: Sun and a few P.M. clouds. Highs 64-68.
SUNDAY: Sun to P.M. clouds. A late shower possible. Highs in the lower 60s.
MONDAY: Rain and wind possible. Sandy just east? Stay tuned! Highs in the 60s.
TUESDAY: Clouds and rain gradually clear. Highs in the 50s.

The virus known as "Gangnam Style" has spread all the way to the Oval Office.
During an Election Day interview with New Hampshire radio station WZID-FM, President Barack Obama was asked about the sensation sparked by K-Pop star Psy, whose "Gangnam Style" video is up to nearly 660 million views on YouTube as of today (the song itself has been perched at Number Two on Billboard's Hot 100 for weeks).
"I just saw that video for the first time, and I think I can do that move," said Obama, referring to the horse-dance move that Psy performs throughout the clip. Asked whether he would do the "Gangnam Style" dance if he is reelected President, Obama said, "I'm not sure that the inauguration ball is the appropriate time to break that out," then suggested an alternative. "You know, maybe do it privately for Michelle."
Obama has been chiming in on pop culture hot topics – from Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj's American Idol feud to his friendship with Jay-Z and Beyoncé – during radio interviews throughout the campaign.

Czernowitz, Roumania (Dec. 18)
For the eighth time the trial of Samson Bronstein, who was violently beaten and tortured by gendarmes following charges leveled against him for supposedly spreading Communist propaganda, has been postponed, this time until the middle of February. The court postponed the trial because it claimed one of the chief witnesses is absent.
Bronstein is a Poale Zionist leader. His sufferings at the hands of the Roumanian police because of a trumped up charge of engaging in anti-national activities have become a matter of world attention.

In France, the first wine of the harvest year, Beaujolais Nouveau, is a cause for celebration and feasts. People wait with baited breath for the release, as it is often the first indication of how good the harvest was in any given year. The release is the same day every year: the third Thursday of November. The style is often described by wine critics as a wine which intended to be enjoyed but not analyzed, and quaffed rather than sipped. (Oops.) As an homage to that tradition, Garage-East has released their second Arizona "New Wine," although this one is not made from Gamay at all…
The Wine: The 2017 New Wine is, like Beaujolais, made using a process of carbonic maceration. This is a whole berry anaerobic fermentation which tends to emphasize fruit flavors, without extracting bitter tannins from the grape skins. In this process, grapes usually loaded into a sealed container that is filled with carbon dioxide; though for this vintage it was an open-top fermenter. Grapes that are gently crushed at the bottom of the container by the weight of their compatriots start to ferment normally, emitting more CO2. All this carbon dioxide causes an enzymatic fermentation to take place inside the uncrushed grapes. This tends to produce a light-bodied, light-colored, fruit forward wine, and this vintage is no exception. But this is where the resemblance to Beaujolais Nouveau ends. The 2017 New Wine Vintage from Garage East is made from a co-fermented blend of 50% Tannat and 50% Counoise, sourced from Cimmaron Vineyard in the Willcox AVA, and was then released in 1-liter cans. (last year, it was made from Aleatico.) The cool thing about this particular blend is that Tannat is one of the last grapes I would expect to use a carbonic fermentation process on, so I was really excited to try this.
The Nose: The nose opens with aromas of stewed boysenberries, prickly pear, lime-candied cranberries, and herbs like rosemary and creosote. Additional notes of strawberries and watermelon jolly rancher. It is bright and fruity!
The Palate: This wine is a light-bodied, fruit forward red with high acidity, and just a tiny bit of tannins. The palate opens with flavors of red vines, prickly pear, strawberry, watermelon, and a bit of smokey creosote, along with just a bit of effervescence. The finish lasts for 45 seconds, with notes of anise, nutmeg, watermelon jolly rancher, flint, while that effervescence dances across the tongue.
The Pairing: Gary and I ended up pairing the 2017 New Wine wine with Thanksgiving; though our Thanksgiving was a bit unorthodox with Turkey Gyros and a Mediterranean theme. That being said, this style is a perfect wine for Thanksgiving turkey, or really, any other holiday meal (like honey-baked ham and the like).
Impressions: Gary chided me for taking notes on this wine and quantifying it, accusing me of quantifying the unquantifiable, and in a sense, he is absolutely right. As mentioned above, wine critics who have a much bigger readership than myself tend to see this as a wine to be enjoyed, rather than analyzed, and this is a correct assessment of this style. It is light, rich, fun, and savory. It is a great wine to be enjoyed with friends, or alone.
The 2017 New Wine from Garage-East is kind of like your genuinely happy, and bubbly close friend. No matter what happens in life, she is always optimistic and can find the silver lining in everything. She wants to see you cheered up from your dour mood. And that's more or less how this wine operates! Tannat can be so big, broody, and tannic, but here it's bright, young, and exuberant.
I could also describe this wine (and did, at the Thanksgiving table) as being kind of like a hot date… except I'm actually enjoying it. Thankfully, the folks at Garage-East made a lot more of this vintage than last year's, so there are still some cans to be had in their tasting room in Gilbert.

What will €500,000 buy?
42 Templeroan Avenue, Knocklyon, Dublin 16
Windhoek, Baltimore, Kinish Bay, Sherkin Island, Co Cork
Address: 42 Templeroan Avenue, Knocklyon, Dublin 16 Agent: Owen Reilly
This 149sq m (1,603sq ft), four-bedroom semi-D in south Dublin has been extended into its 125ft south-facing garden and is filled with natural light. Accommodation includes a livingroom with fireplace, bay windows and double doors to the open-plan kitchen/dining room. Upstairs are four bedrooms (one en suite) and a bathroom. There's another bedroom in the converted attic. BER: D1
Plus: The house and garden has had a thorough going over. The livingroom runs into the kitchen and diningroom, while a TV den is kept separate. Minus: Much of the interior style is neutral and the suburban location is "safe": not a house for those who like life on the edge – unless it's the edge of a city.
Address: Windhoek, Baltimore, Kinish Bay, Sherkin Island, Co Cork Agent: James Lyons O'Keeffe
Across the sea from Baltimore, this home gets you away from, if not it all, then a lot of it. This detached house with annex is on an acre of land which includes a lawn running down to the water where there's a jetty. The main house has two bedrooms, a kitchen and livingroom, and a further bedroom, kitchen and livingroom in the annex.
Plus: Gorgeous getaway – across from the mainland – and close to the water's edge. Good palette of natural materials inside (and outside).
Minus: Fairly basic accommodation and a tinge of hostel-chic: some rooms have sockets high on the wall, giving a spidery-wire aesthetic.

I'm confused a bit by the wording. I assume you mean working it, and no you do not have to burn candles on the jar. You can just shake the jar, give it attention, reinforce petitions, just work with it. You could also boil the jar in some hot water to "heat" it up.
And, yes. You can definitely use a honey jar for more than love. It can be for any type of sweetening and even healing.
Just pray or chant over it to work it.
Honey jars can be used to sweeten someone even if its not love. Yes it is necessary to burn candles as they "feed" the honey jar so that it keeps working I mainly burn fixed candles on mine every friday. Vinegar jar is not the same as jars that are boiled. The way I was taught vinegar jars is that burn one black candle on top of the jar and bury it where the sun goes down and once a month you pour vinegar over it to "feed" it.


text: Hi all, as the one or other may have recognized, I'm a bit unmotivated last months. This has no special reason - it's more a fundamental gap between my personal goals and the goals I mean to see from the loudest developers and the most named packages in the quarterly announcement. Looks to me like pkgsrc targets NetBSD desktops at first (good choice!), than some kind of server admins (not only on NetBSD) and than a long time nothing else. I'm a contract developer. I like to develop on NetBSD (thanks to Thomas Klausner who forced me into it with his feedback on my commits), but there is no commercial effort for me in NetBSD packaging. But there is commercial effort in maintaining Perl5 modules at CPAN. I spent around 6 weeks in 1st quarter of 2010 to update important Perl5 packages like DBIx::Class, Catalyst or Padre. We were at only 40 Perl5 packages in pkgsrc needing an update from CPAN at the begin of the 1st freeze this year! The only answer I get when making proposals for the announcement is: there are some less important plugins of Padre which fail to configure without an X-Server - so we name at least nothing of the Perl5 packages. Have a look at the presentation of the last Perl Survey: http://blogs.perl.org/users/holy_zarquons_singing_fish/2010/06/perl-survey---initial-data-analysis-and-presentation.html Where is NetBSD named? Where is pkgsrc named? And I'm sure, other languages from the Top 10 of the TIOBE index will create no other picture. But we have a very good Perl5 packages infrastructure. We have excellent developers support (compared to other packaging systems). But first choices for development are Linux and Windows. But naming only Firefox, Gnome, KDE, Samba, OpenOffice.org updates in the announcement will not transport this excellent support to the mind of the developers. I don't want to minimize the fame for all the packagers of Gnome (drochner), Firefox (tnn), TeTeX (minskim), Samba & Apache (tron) and all other very important packages. I praise Joerg every day using pkgsrc for his (most times) impressive work at the pkgsrc infrastructure and see the time which is spent by the admins (spz) and the pr review crew (seen wiz, dh, asau often). Meanwhile (I thought about this the last 3 month) I think, either pkgsrc has other goals than I want to reach or we need to improve something in the project itself: - we need to identify the goals of the pkgsrc users - we need to identify the goals of potential new users - and we need to identify the goals of the committers I'm not writing these lines to get responses like "Yeah, great work with the Perl5 packages" - to be true, I write them to remind the developers that some people (at least me) might have no job which allows to work on pkgsrc for business but they do it for some kind of reputation. Currently - there is no reputation for me continuing my engagement in updating Perl5 packages for pkgsrc. And currently the pkgsrc infrastructure is moving in a direction which makes it more and more cumbersome to use it. Best, Jens

I had the pleasure of shooting Jack and Lauren's wedding on Flathead Lake in Polson, Montana. In the case you haven't been to Flathead Lake in Montana, put it on your list of places to go in the Summer, it's very much worth the trip. The wedding was lakeside at a family house and really couldn't have gone by any better. It was probably the most fun I've had shooting a wedding. It never hurts to be there shooting a friend's wedding. It makes things fun for sure.

Local program teaches kids business leadership skills
Thursday, Mar 13, 2014 10:33 am
For the last six months Alicia Laurin, owner of Cre8ive Ways in Yankee Valley Crossing shopping centre, has taught kids about the value of an idea in her innovative Entrepreneur Kids class at the store.
The children in the class pick what they are going to make and sell, then they discuss whether or not it is something that can be marketed to a wide group of people, they research what the cost is to make the item and determine what is a reasonable price they can sell it for.
�They�re involved in every step,� Laurin said of the kids� involvement.
At the last class, which wrapped up with a sale of the products the kids made at Cre8ive Ways on March 1, the little entrepreneurs had made key chains and magnets, baking goods in a jar, mugs and mini marshmallow roasting kits.
The kids call suppliers to research how much the item they plan to make will cost. Once the cost of supplies is known, Laurin works with the kids to decide how many items to make and what price to charge for the product. She then uses her Facebook page to poll followers to determine if the pricing for the item is something they would pay.
She said by getting the kids involved in every step, they are more interested in the outcome.
Laurin also teaches the kids about taking out and repaying a loan and loans them the money they need to cover the costs of supplies to make the item and for packaging and displaying the item. At the end of the classes, Laurin allows the kids to use space in her store to sell the items they have made.
She said the kids know the money they receive from the sale will first go to repaying the loan they have with her, with any extra funds being profit that they keep.
Laurin said the class encourages the kids, �To develop a sense of business and develop an understanding of what they can actually do.�
At the March 1 sale, Elias Huery, 10, built upon his love for baking to create Awesomely Good Goods, his own brand of brownie mix and no-bake strawberry cheesecake in a jar.
Huery said the class was a lot of fun and he sold out his product and made a profit.
Sophia Kamke, 11, used paint markers to create colourful and imaginative mugs.
�I just started being creative and started drawing on them,� she said of her creative process.
She also sold out and made a profit before the end of the day was done.
Nathanial Spencer, 10, was inspired by the popular game Minecraft to make themed key chains and magnets.
Laurin said with only about 15 minutes left in the sale, Spencer still had a few items left for sale so he took it upon himself to approach customers in the store and offered them a two for $5 deal in order to clear out his stock, which Laurin said was very impressive.
She said the idea for the class came from her own experiences as a teenage entrepreneur when she would sell left over doughnuts for the bakery she worked in at school the next day.
�It�s something I�ve been trying to work with my own daughter on,� she said.
�Trying to find other ways of generating income other than traditional jobs because she is creative.�
She added she is always looking for ways to encourage young, creative people and is interested in starting a wall in Cre8ive Ways devoted to providing students a place to sell their art and asks interested student artists to contact the store at 403-912-2778.
The Entrepreneur Kids classes run every other month and usually have about three to five students each session.
The next one starts April 2, and will be held weekly from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the store.
The cost is $175 for the four-week class and the sale at the end.

This is a rare opportunity. A great Paraguayan film to be shown in Wichita.
On Saturday, April 20th, Tallgrass Film Association presents 7 CAJAS (7 Boxes) at 7:30 pm at the Orpheum Theatre. The film's co-Director Juan Carlos Maneglia will attend the screening and participate in a Q&A after the film. Tickets are $10 General Admission/$8 for students/teachers, seniors, military and TFA members with valid ID.
"Out of Paraguay comes one of the most original crime thrillers of 2012 and we are very fortunate to bring the film and one of its directors to Wichita. A favorite of last year's Tallgrass Programming Committee, this is a film not to be missed," said TFA Co-Director of Programming Nick Pope.
MSN says 7 CAJAS is "a thriller with life, heart and excitement coursing through it until you can feel the power of the passion that made the film it sputtering off every frame like sparks from a roaring fire."
When released in its native Paraguay in August of 2012, the film broke box office records, it won the "Films in Progress" at the San Sebastian International Film Festival where it was the first unanimous decision in the festival's history. It went on to play at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival, the 2013 Palm Springs Film Festival and recently received the Audience Award at the Miami Film Festival. (105 mins. Spanish with English subtitles. )
The screening is sponsored by Kansas Paraguay Partners, the Orpheum Theatre, KMUW and Tom, Kathleen and Chris Wren.

If you follow me on social media, you know Tracy and I took a breakdancing class last night. It.was.awesome (so awesome that we're going to continue for the full four weeks).
The story will be in the paper Saturday. But, in the meantime, I wanted to tell you about this cool promotion Lorraine Michaels' Dance Studio is offering: if you stop by the (free) dance party at their Fuller Road studio between 7:30 and 10:30 p.m. Saturday you can not only try a bunch of classes for free, on-the-spot, but you can sign up for any of their classes for half-price.
Yup, that's right. You can take a month's worth of dance classes for around $20-$25. Tracy and I (and her daughters) are signing up for the breakdancing, but there's also pole dancing, a variety of Latin dances, belly dancing and more.
You can find additional information here. The gallery of our breakdancing "experience" is below.

Danica Patrick deserves better odds entering the Coke Zero 400
Bet against Danica Patrick in this weekend's Coke Zero 400?
Not a chance.
Although Las Vegas Hotel Superbook lists Patrick's odds at 50-1, given her success at Daytona International Speedway in the last five years, the No. 10 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevy is better than just a long shot.
"It's nice to have Florida Lottery on the car with GoDaddy this week," Patrick said. "Hopefully, we can put together a good run with the car and get them and GoDaddy into victory lane. That's always the goal and one we are shooting for." In 12 career stock car starts - in Sprint Cup, Nationwide and ARCA – Patrick has posted two poles and an average starting position of 10.4. She's led in seven of the 12 races and scored top 10 results in all three series.
When her team returns to the track this weekend, Patrick will pilot the same chassis that won the pole for the 2013 Daytona 500 where she led five laps and finished eighth - the best finish for a female competitor in the history of the event.
"Hopefully, it has some of that speed," Patrick said. "It's a good car and I like how it runs. We had the speed with it at Talladega but just couldn't do anything in the final laps. That's what's tough about restrictor-plate racing. A lot of the time, it's out of your control.
"I remember asking Jimmie Johnson after he won the 2013 Daytona 500 what his plan was and he said there really wasn't any plan. It just sort of happens if you are in the right place. But hopefully we'll have a good car and a good plan and make it work."
Enjoying restrictor plate racing is half the battle. As unpredictable as the competition can be at Daytona, perseverance and a little bit a luck could be the winning ticket for Patrick on Saturday night.
"I always like going there," Patrick said. "It's where my first stock-car start was in 2010 and I actually have a lot of experience there. I think (crew chief) Tony Gibson and the Florida Lottery/GoDaddy guys build really good cars. They know how to go fast. "At the end of the day, you just need to be in the right place at the right time. A lot of it is out of your control. But I think we'll be good and hopefully have a car that can compete and win."

So I'm roughly half-way through the exam season, five down, four to go.
Some of them have gone well, others not so well, others were going well until I found myself running out of time, started panicing and ignored the obvious answer…
Anyways, all in all, it's been pretty miserable so far, and it really doesn't do wonders for morale. I really just want this to be over, because this whole experience is just making me feel like crap, and I'm pretty damned sick of it.
Right now, I'm supposed to be revising Plasma Physics, because the exam's tomorrow and for the life of me I have no idea what he's doing using the Bennett relation to derive the Pease-Braginskii current, and I really need this exam to go well. For a whole bunch of reasons.
At least there's only 4 left! Plasma I think is generally going to go well, then on Friday there's Comprehensive II, the sequel to the exam that made us all want to commit suicide the first time around, Dynamical Systems & Chaos on Tuesday, which could be pretty unpleasant, and then Foundations of Quantum Mechanics on Thursday which I think will be pretty good too, so should form a pleasant wind-down. Hopefully.
I'm really not looking forward to results day.
Anyways, back to the physics of the Z-pinch…

At Bernardgasse 23 in Vienna's 7th district is a workshop that has been creating objects of unparalleled design and craftsmanship for over a century. This workshop is the Werkstätte Carl Auböck. Family run by four generations of Auböcks, Werkstätte Carl Auböck still produces highly sought-after pieces today.
The Werkstätte Carl Auböck was founded in 1912 by the bronze smith Karl Henirch Auböck. Under Karl, the workshop produced bronze animal statues and figurines as part of the "Vienna Bronzes" movement popular during this time. But it wasn't until until his son, Carl Auböck II, joined the workshop in 1919 that there would be extraordinary changes.
In 1919, Carl Auböck II was attending drawing class at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna when he met Swiss painter Johannes Itten. Carl II later followed Itten to the Bauhaus in Weimar in the winter of 1919. There, Carl II attended Itten's renowned Introductory Course and worked in the metal workshop of Naum Slutzky. After leaving the Bauhaus in 1921, he returned to Vienna to work full time at his father's Werkstätte in 1923.
At his father's workshop, the younger Auböck began to develop a series of intriguing new pieces with far more modern designs than the Art Deco style pieces that the workshop had produced to date. In 1923, Carl II married Mara Utschkunova, a sculptor and, later, textile artist whom he met in Weimar. The following year, their only son, Carl Auböck III was born.
After the elder Auböck, Karl Heinrich, passed away in 1925, Carl II went on to oversee a growing number of exciting new projects. The workshop ventured beyond bronze animal statues and began producing abstract, functional art objects, including corkscrews, bottle stoppers, paperweights, and, due to Carl II's fondness for coffee and cigarettes, many ashtrays. There was also a new material of choice: brass. Through skilled polishing and patinating, Carl II gave each brass piece depth and soul.
Carl Auböck II had a distinctive and whimsical design style that artfully imparted new functions to familiar forms. With his dedication to uncompromising craftsmanship, ingenuity, and novel use of found objects (aka "objét trouvés"), he created distinguishing works, such as the acclaimed Tree Table (pictured below). Designs such as the Tree Table changed the landscape of art and design not only in Austria but internationally, which is why Carl II's work can be found in nearly every major art museum's design collection around the world.
As a young architect and designer, Carl II's son, Carl III, proved to be a worthy heir to the Auböck legacy. While completing postgraduate work at MIT in 1951, Carl III made the acquaintance of many designers, such as Charles Eames, Benjamin Thompson, and George Nelson. He also reconnected with his father's old Bauhaus acquaintances, Walter Gropius and Herbert Bayer. In subsequent years, Carl III worked with his father in Vienna to move the style of the workshop toward industrial design. Together, the two Carls had a spirited and devoted partnership. Feeding off their chemistry in the workshop, each created objects of astounding design and quality for the home, from coat racks and floor lamps to table bells and shoe horns.
In 1957, Carl Auböck II passed away, leaving Carl III to run the workshop with his wife Justine. Carl III was a visionary who enjoyed traveling and thus expanded Auböck design on an international scale, gaining notable commercial clients like Tiffany & Co. and Saks Fifth Avenue in New York, the Ginza Shiseido Boutique in Tokyo, Harrods of London, and Paris's Christofle. Carl III continued to develop his own collections through the 1980s, while maintaining his belief that good design could heal the world.
Carl Auböck III's children, Justine Auböck, a talented landscape architect and teacher, and Carl Auböck IV, an architect and, like the preceding Carls, designer, took over the reins of the Werkstätte Carl Auböck in 1993 after their father's death. As heads of the company to this day, Justine and Carl IV helped to successfully stage a comprehensive Carl Auböck solo exhibition at the Wien Museum in 1997. They also oversaw two book publications that catalogued the workshop's historical products as part of the Carl Auböck Archive, attributing more than 4,500 objects to Werkstätte Carl Auböck.

The old Viennese townhouse that witnessed the birth of the iconic hand-shaped bottle opener along with numerous other iconic designs, Werkstätte Carl Auböck still produces not only newly developed collections and collection pieces on a flexible and ever-changing basis, but also "classic" Werkstätte Carl Auböck designs. Even though attention is still meticulously paid to Old World craftsmanship, enduring quality, and timeless, good design, there are still collectors that search for vintage Auböck pieces. Carl Auböck IV said it best when asked about Auböck pieces fading or disappearing from fashion with evolving times in a 2012 interview with Vienna based artist and writer Thomas Branstaetter:
"Every collector is on the lookout for an Auböck piece they've never seen before. And they know they'll recognize it by its uniqueness. I wouldn't quite call that disappearing… I'd call it a legend."

World Team Tennis Warriors win season opener
Last updated 1/2/2014 at Noon
FALLBROOK – Dec. 14 was the first day of San Diego County's High School World Team Tennis (WTT) season, with the Fallbrook Warriors one of 19 teams taking part, opening their season with a solid win over Escondido's Orange Glen, 31-14. World Team Tennis is a popular form of professional tennis, allowing team competition in what is traditionally an individual sport, and it has now segued into high school tennis. Last year, San Diego County was selected as the first county in the nation to "road test" the WTT format at the high school level.
The WTT teams are co-ed. In some ways it is more like a basketball or baseball game than tennis, as substitutions can be made at any time during the match. And unlike the traditional Wimbledonian hush during points, WTT encourages the players to be raucous and shout encouragement for their teammates. A set is won at five games rather than six, and any game going to deuce is decided by a single tiebreaker ("no ad") point. A match consists of 6 sets: mens doubles, ladies doubles, mens singles, ladies singles, and two sets of mixed doubles. The winner of the match is the team with the most individual games won, rather than sets.
Last season the Fallbrook Warriors were among the league's best with a 7-1 record, their only loss by one point. This season, returning coach Randy Hicks feels equally good about this year's team, "We've got most of the girls back from last year's team, except now they have an extra year's experience, so we are really strong on the girls' side. And on the guys' side we have Christian Rojas-Bartlett coming back, and some good varsity-level new guys joining the team. I think we are going to be pretty solid."
In the Dec. 14 match, the Warriors won all six sets. In women's doubles, the starting team was Jaylene Romero and Joellen Banks, with Rebecca Dupont subbing in for Romero, winning the set 5-1. In men's doubles, "the Christians," Christian Rojas-Bartlett and Christian Richmond, opened the set with Louie Faulkner coming in for Richmond to wrap up the set 6-4.
The women's singles match was won 5-2, with first Romero, then Banks, and DuPont coming in as the closer. The men's singles match was 5-3, with Richmond, then Rojas-Bartlett, followed by Faulkner combining for the win. One mixed doubles set featured first Romero and Richmond, then Rojas-Bartlett and Banks, combining for a 5-0 win. The second mixed doubles set paired DuPont and Faulkner, who came away with a 6-4 victory.

As a passionate advocate for women, and obviously therefore an advocate for putting women at the helm not only of corporations, but of cities and countries, I nevertheless think it's dangerous to suggest that women are so benign, so aggression-free, that all violence would vanish if we alone were running things.
The front page review in Today's New York Times Book Review section is of Steven Pinker's "The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined. Pinker, a professor of psychology at Harvard who has written brilliantly on linguistics, says that violence in our era has decreased more than it ever has, and for a host of reasons– one of which is the effect of women. Noting this, the reviewer, Peter Singer, a professor of bioethics at Princeton, writes, "The empowerment of women does, Pinker argues, exercise a pacifying influence, and the world would be more peaceful if women were in charge."

Followup on the FlyLady ( organization guru)
So ladies..I have been following the fly lady for weeks now and I gotta admit I am a slow learner...LOL. I am however getting great pleasure from the " shine your sink" part. Which is a small first step or jumping off point for beginners like me.
I liked the feeling of waking up to a shiny sink so much that I thought maybe I shoud take another baby step... so I started leaving myself notes on the bathroom mirror at night... most times it is just an affirmation and if needed a reminder. So far so good... Rick is somewhat puzzled about the notes but hey... they have nothing to do with him.
So I decided to purchase a copy of her control journal and take it with me on vacation so I can work on it while I am laying on the beach. I got it in the mail yesterday and it is really nice. There are parts that do not apply to me since I have no little ones, but all in all it is an awesome guide to having it all together. Breaking cleaning down into zones, and creating and implementing morning , afternoon, and bedtime routines that are on paper untl you can get the hang of them. I think my favorite thing is that everywhere along the way she includes ME time. It is a very self caring plan and pushes you to love yourself along the way to making your life a little easier. Since she asks you on the very first page NOT to become obsessive or push yourself to get through the whole thing at a fast pace. I thought taking it with me to the beach will give me ample time to relax and take small stabs at it.
I will post as I progress to share my experience.
Yes...please keep us updated...I don't do flylady...but have considered it..
I still haven't gone to her website to check it out...but I'm going to have to do that for sure
ok I have to say I don't know who that is...<blush>
Just google the flylady... she is a organization guru.
Quoting starlight1968:
ok I have to say I don't know who that is...
I kind of have the same philosophy when it comes to house work. I tackle it in bits. I used to be able to clean the house entirely in one day, but I don't even attempt that anymore.

After spinning my wheels for the past several weeks, yesterday I sold five arcade games … and the funny part was, three of them didn't even work.
One of the most important parts of sales and marketing is knowing your audience, and that's something I'm definitely encountering in my efforts to sell these machines.
There are lots of reasons why people buy arcade games. Most regular people might think that the only reason to buy an arcade machine would be to play it, but there are actually several other reasons. Sometimes, arcade enthusiasts will buy a machine just for the parts. I just sold my old Robocop machine for $150. Even though it's not a very desirable game to own, the buyer got a working monitor ($100), the Robocop board ($50), plus a Midway cabinet ($50) and all the other parts (joysticks, buttons, a power supply, coin door, etc.) For someone who needs and can use the parts, it was a good deal — and I made my money back on that one, so everybody's happy.
Other reason someone might buy a game would be for the cabinet itself. Take for example my Rampart machine:
As you can tell by the marquee, this was originally a Gauntlet II cabinet. For comparison, here's a picture of another Gauntlet II machine (that I used to own):
Back to knowing your market; if I advertise this machine to a "non-collector", I would advertise it as a working Rampart machine, and leave it at that. If I were to advertise it to a group of collectors, I would refer to it as a working and complete Gauntlet II cabinet that currently has Rampart installed in it. A collector is much more likely to convert this machine back to play Gauntlet II than they would be to leave it as a Rampart machine. A non-collector most likely wouldn't care about the cabinet.
And that explains how I was able to sell three games yesterday that didn't even work. One of them was an empty Donkey Kong, Jr. cabinet. Even with no innards, the cabinet was worth something to someone who will likely turn it back into a dedicated Nintendo machine. I also sold an old gutted Atari Gravitar/Black Widow cabinet and my non-working Rampage World Tour. I don't know what the buyer plans on doing with the former, but the latter will most likely be converted into a Multicade of some sort, with its existing parts either being sold or re-used on another project.
I'm just starting to figure out this business while trying to get out of it at the same time.

How to Buy Web Hosting for Better SEO Ranking
Can good hosting get you higher SEO rankings? The direct answer is no, although bad hosting can not only demote your site among search results but can even make it vanish from Google altogether. Such situations are extreme, though, and most of us need not worry about changing our hosting company. However, site owners who may operate in a highly competitive niche and fighting for every inch of turf cannot afford to turn a blind eye to high-quality hosting.
The reason is that all the meticulous efforts you put into inch ahead of the competition may be for naught if your hosting company damages your site at the last moment. It can pull down your ranking by causing one or more of the following issues that affect SEO.

For the last few weeks, I've been working on adapting my foolproof whole wheat bread recipe to be a "soaked" recipe. If you're not familiar with this concept, soaking involves combining the flour with an acid (like yogurt, whey, cultured buttermilk, or vinegar) for a 12-24 hour soak in order to reduce the phytic acid in the grain.
Up to this point, I have not soaked my grains on a regular basis, nor to I intend to do so all the time. But I wanted to adapt my recipe so that others who do soak their grains could use it, and I wanted to start introducing grains to our son (we waited until he turned one). I am starting to feed him soaked grains because the soaking makes them more digestible (grains are one of the hardest things for the body to digest, and little tummies need some extra help at the beginning!).
I have made this recipe this way at least eight times, and it's always turned out well (except for the one time I was in a hurry and forgot to add the salt!). Your bread will be affected flavor-wise by the kind of yogurt you use. I've used three different kinds of yogurt (homemade, crockpot version; homemade, counter-top version; and storebought plain Greek) and each one imparts a slightly different flavor to the finished loaf (though you may not even notice it).
Soaked bread tastes a little more like sourdough bread than my regular recipe. If you're not having any issues with digesting grains, you may want to stick with that recipe. But if you find that your body does better when your grains are soaked, sprouted, or soured, you might enjoy this recipe!
Soaked Whole Wheat Bread Recipe (Printable recipe here.)
3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, freshly ground
1 1/2 cups warm water
2 Tbsp. yogurt
2 1/4 tsp. yeast (or one packet)
1 1/2 tsp. sea salt
2 Tbsp. sucanat
2 Tbsp. wheat gluten
2 1/2 Tbsp. olive oil
The night before you want to bake bread, grind your wheat in the WonderMill.
In a glass or ceramic bowl, combine flour, water, and yogurt. Cover, and let soak at room temperature overnight (12 hours).
In the morning, uncover the bowl and put the soaked dough into your stand mixer. Add yeast, salt, sucanat, gluten, and olive oil. Using the dough hook, mix for a few minutes until well-incorporated.
Cover bowl and let rest for 45-60 minutes.
Grease a loaf pan.
After rest, oil the countertop and your hands and dump the dough onto the surface. Knead the dough a couple of times, then roll it up into a loaf shape.
Place the dough into the greased bread pan. Slash the top of the loaf and cover with plastic wrap.
Place pan in the fridge for 2 hours.
Towards the end of the refrigerator rise, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Remove the loaf from the fridge, take off the plastic wrap, and allow it to sit on top of the preheating oven.
Bake for 34-35 minutes. Let loaf sit in pan for 5 minutes, then remove to wire rack to cool completely.
*If you're wondering what the actual "schedule" looks like when soaking bread, here is what mine is usually like:
8:00 PM Grind wheat and start soak
8:00 AM Add other ingredients
8:15 AM Rest
9:00 AM Shape loaf
10:50 AM Preheat oven
11:00 AM Bake loaf
11:35 AM Remove loaf from oven
11:40 AM Remove loaf from pan and cool
This schedule allows me to use the bread for lunch that day, if needed. It slices best when completely cool, but it's doable after 45 minutes or so.

The advantage of booking in advance is that you pay a flat fee, instead of paying by the minute, how many of the vendors charge at the park. It means you can enjoy the scenery without counting the minutes as you go.

En estos momentos se pueden comprar a precio rebajado en varias tiendas online los cuatro primeros Shadows of the Apt, de Adrian Tchaikovsky. Estos son los títulos con sus portadas, sinopsis y enlaces a las tiendas donde están rebajados:
volúmenes de la saga
Empire in Black and Gold (Amazon ES - 2,52€; Kobo - 2,49€; Google Play - 2,37€)
The city states of the Lowlands have lived in peace and prosperity for decades: bastions of civilization and sophistication. That peace is about to end.
In far-off corners, an ancient Empire has been conquering city after city with its highly trained armies and sophisticated warmaking . . . And now it's set its sights on a new prize.
Only the ageing Stenwold Maker, spymaster, artificer and statesman, can see the threat. It falls upon his shoulders to open the eyes of his people - as soon a tide will sweep down over the Lowlands and burn away everything in its path.
But first he must stop himself from becoming the Empire's latest victim.
Dragonfly Falling (Amazon ES - 2,52€; Kobo - 2,49€; Google Play - 2,37€)
The armies of the Wasp Empire are on the march, and first to feel their might will be the city of Tark, which is even now preparing for siege. Within its walls Salma and Totho must weather the storm, as the Ant-kinden take a stand - against numbers and weaponry such as the Lowlands have never seen.
And after his earlier victory, the Empire's secret service has decided veteran artificer Stenwold Maker is too dangerous to live. So disgraced Major Thalric is despatched on a desperate mission, not only to eliminate Stenwold himself, but to bring about the destruction of his beloved city of Collegium, and thus end all hope of intelligent resistance to the remorseless imperial advance.
While the Empire's troops are laying waste to all in their way, the young Emperor himself is treading a different path. His thoughts are on darker things than mere conquest, and if he attains his goal he will precipitate a reign of blood that will last a thousand years.
Blood of the Mantis (Amazon ES - 2,52€; Kobo - 2,49€; Google Play - 2,37€)
Driven by the ghosts of the legendary Darakyon, the seer Achaeos has tracked the stolen Shadow Box to the marsh-town of Jerez - but he has only days before this magical artefact will be lost to him forever . . .
Meanwhile, the forces of the Empire are mustering for their next great offensive. Stenwold and his followers have only a short time in which to seek allies before the enemy soldiers are on the march again, conquering everything in their path. And if they cannot hold them back before spring, then the hated black and gold flag will be flying fly over every city in the Lowlands before the year's end.
And should the Shadow Box fall into the hands of the power-mad Emperor, then nothing will save the world from his relentless ambition.
Salute the Dark (Amazon ES - 2,52€; Kobo - 2,49€; Google Play - 2,37€)
The vampiric sorcerer Uctebri has at last got his hands on the Shadow Box and can finally begin his dark ritual - a ritual that the Wasp-kinden Emperor believes will grant him immortality. But Uctebri has his own plans both for the Emperor and the Empire.
The massed Wasp armies are on the march, and the spymaster Stenwold must see which of his allies will stand now that the war has finally arrived. This time the Empire will not stop until a black and gold flag waves over Stenwold's own home city of Collegium.
Tisamon the Weaponsmaster is faced with a terrible choice: a path that could lead him to abandon his friends and his daughter and to face degradation and loss. Yet it might bring him before the Wasp Emperor with a blade in his hand. But is he being driven by Mantis-kinden honour, or manipulated by something more sinister?

National Park and Recreation Month
Washington, D.C. (Vocus) August 1, 2009
Just in the nick of time and before their August recess, the House this week passed by voice vote, H. RES. 288 recognizing the importance of park and recreation programs and facilities and expressing support for the designation of the month of July as "National Park and Recreation Month".
The legislation was introduced in March by Rep. John Barrow of Georgia and at final passage included 48 co-sponsors. Representative Barrow noted in his presenting statements, "Park and recreation facilities aid in combating obesity and chronic disease epidemics; connect children with nature; provide opportunities for increased physical activities; and enhance the quality of life for injured military service members and those with physical disabilities through therapeutic recreation. As American families enjoy our summer season, I offer H. Res. 288 as a tribute to our state and local parks and their employees and I urge my colleagues to support it."
National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) has been a strong advocate in supporting the official designation and has promoted July as Park and Recreation Month since 1985. The bill approved by the House this week makes it official. Recreation facilities and parks across the country annually use July to celebrate the kick-off of summer programming and as a time to pull their communities together to volunteer, get involved in great outdoor physical activities and advocate for parks and recreation.
"We are delighted that the House has passed this legislation", NRPA CEO Barbara Tulipane said. Tulipane continued, "This official designation will ensure that more Americans understand the vital role parks and recreation areas play in stimulating our nation's economy, improving community health and wellness, and safeguarding our nation's natural resources."
The text of Rep. Barrow's bill notes, "…the creation of places for physical activity, combined with information outreach, produced a 48.4 percent increase in the frequency of physical activity." The legislation text further notes, "…more than 75 percent of U.S. citizens use park and recreation facilities to maintain fitness and remain socially interactive…"
NRPA has recently initiated a long-term research study with George Mason University to quantify the health benefits in urban communities resulting from usage of parks. The study is focused on the current renovation underway in Marvin Gaye Park in Northeast Washington, DC.
For more information, visit http://www.nrpa.org.
The National Recreation and Park Association is a national, not-for-profit organization dedicated to advancing park, recreation and conservation efforts that enhance quality of life for all people. Through its network of more than 21,000 recreation and park professionals and citizens, NRPA encourages the promotion of healthy lifestyles, recreation initiatives, and conservation of natural and cultural resources.

2.16.16 - Third Tuesday - NWL Monthly Meeting
- Details
- Category: New York Women's Liberation
To Have Children (Or Not): A Consciousness Raising
Monthly Meeting February 16th 7:30-9:30pm (*note new start time)
In January we celebrated the anniversary of Roe v. Wade by doing a CR on when we have needed birth control and abortion. In February, we will dig deeper and explore whether we want or do not want children, now or in the future, and why.
We'll be answering the following questions:
1. What are our reasons for wanting children, if/when we wanted them. (Whether we had them, didn't, or are still planning to.) Reasons for not wanting them? If we had them, did our thinking about this change after we had them? If we didn't have them, did our thinking change?
2. Additional question for those who have done parenting work: When does this work feel like an individual responsibility? When does it feel like a collective (community, society wide,national) responsibility?
Details: Tuesday 2/16 from 7:30 - 9:30 pm @ The Commons in Brooklyn, 388 Atlantic Avenue between Hoyt and Bond, near the Hoyt-Schermerhorn Street A/C/G. You can also take the 2,3,4,5 to Nevins or the D,N,R to Atlantic-Pacific. Map.

A taste similar to a spicy, rich pate with a soft, nutty texture
(PRWEB UK) 6 January 2012
Rabbie Burns declared it the "Great chieftain o' the puddin-race"; GoodnessDirect would like to offer some tips on cooking his exalted dish: the haggis.
It is not too far-fetched to believe that the British have some fairly unique tastes in food. Watching from across the Atlantic, The New York Times acknowledges that Britain has "the world's best candy" - a great complement for an average chocolate bar available from any British cornershop.1
In another edition it notes that the sea-faring nation has also pioneered the institution of marmalade on toast "around the globe".2 And, over time, the journal has fielded many articles fascinated with the British love for fish and chips.3
But to fully appreciate why the humble haggis should be celebrated by so many as something of a national dish, it needs to be understood that puddings, whether savoury or sweet, have always been a staple of British society. "Pudding is an ancient British food," The New York Times observes, "originating back in the medieval period."4 The famous Christmas pudding was originally "fruits mixed with meat and wine and... spices."
But it is the haggis which poet Rabbie Burns, declares to be the true prince among puddings.
"Great chieftain o' the puddin-race!
Aboon them a' ye tak your place"
('Address to a Haggis', Robert Burns)
This Scottish delicacy is celebrated for its doubtful reputation yet surprisingly gamey flavour; with a taste similar to spicy, rich pate with a soft, nutty texture.
What many will not realise, however, is that there are countless ways to serve haggis on Burns Night (25th January). It really is truly versatile.
~ Recipe ideas for haggis ~
Most people south of the border know about the traditional serving of 'neaps and tatties'. Their knowledge might even extend to the 'Flying Scotsman' (simply stuff chicken breasts with haggis, bake thee chicken wrapped in smoked bacon, and serve with a creamy alcoholic sauce). Yet there is more...
How about trying Haggis Balls in a Whisky and Mustard Sauce? Or Haggis Tartlets with Red Onion Marmalade? An adventurous chef could go continental with a Haggis Lasagne or explore the exotic by preparing Haggis Pakora. There's also a stunning piece of mean cuisine in the Haggis Torta Salgada - a kind of Haggis soufflé-style pie.
So, if Burns night ever seems boring, it could be that a more creative meal is required. Creativity is, of course, what Burns Night is all about, and a plate of haggis should always entertain.
GoodnessDirect recommends beginning the evening meal by serving kipper pâté with oatcakes, then surprise everyone with the main course: presenting a masterpiece of haggis with a difference; ending with the grand finale of a creamy cranachan dessert. The guests will want to come again.
~ Cooking haggis is simple ~
The real great secret about haggis is that it's so easy to cook. A Macsween's haggis (available from [http://www.goodnessdirect.co.uk/cgi-local/frameset/brand/MACS.html GoodnessDirect] with next day delivery) can be steamed in just 6 minutes in the microwave. (Their vegetarian version takes 60 seconds!)
The result will be a cook who looks good in the kitchen but without all the extra bother.
For an evening built on the eloquence of Rabbie Burns and the speed of GoodnessDirect... "owe it all..." he wrote, "to their gratis grace and goodness"
Enjoy Burns Night.

Hayden Town Council OKs pit bulls
November 3, 2011
Hayden — Pit bull terriers will not be banned in Hayden.
Hayden resident Carolyn Montieth on Thursday night asked the Hayden Town Council to ban the breed nearly a month after her daughter was attacked by a female pit bull in the western Routt County town.
The council said no breed should be singled out and instead decided to look into giving the municipal court judge the ability to impose higher fines and penalties on residents whose dogs are repeatedly caught running loose.
The council also agreed the current ordinance regarding vicious dogs — which gives the judge the option to impose a wide range of penalties, including banning a vicious dog from town or putting it down — was more favorable than banning a breed.
After Montieth's daughter was attacked by a pit bull Oct. 8, Hayden police issued Jessica Dumas, who owns two pit bull terriers, citations for owning vicious dogs and allowing them to run loose. She is due in court Monday to face the complaints.
Dumas told the council that her dogs are not vicious and asked members not to pursue a ban.

"My dogs are not vicious; they are very loving," she said.
Dumas said her daughter accidentally let one of the dogs out before it attacked Montieth's daughter, and she apologized for the incident at Thursday's meeting. She said she has taken steps to secure the fence around her home so her dogs will not escape again. Dumas also invited the council to come meet her pit bulls Lady and Piglet, who were in her van parked outside Hayden Town Hall.
Hayden Interim Police Chief Gordon Booco told the council that in the past year, officers have responded to seven vicious animal complaints. He said three of the incidents involved pit bulls, one a cat and the rest other animals. He said in one case, an owner put his pit bull down because it had killed another dog.
Hayden's animal ordinance allows owners who are cited for loose dogs to continue accepting a maximum of a $75 fine instead of appearing in court after the owner's third offense. Mayor Jim Haskins said the council will look into changing the ordinance so owners of dogs that repeatedly are loose would be required to appear in court where a judge can impose harsher penalties.
"This is a tough issue, and a lot of it has to do with the owner and training the dog," he said. "I look at the ordinance we've got, and a lot of this is pretty well-covered."
Montieth said after the meeting that she was happy with the council's decision even though pit bulls won't be banned.
"I think it is good they will look into changing things," she said.
