Review posted on Kindles & Wine
Don't you just love finding a new author that you really like? I'm so excited whenever I discover someone new. It makes me wonder how I ever got along without reading them before. That's what I really enjoy about anthologies. I get to discover new authors without having to devote as much time as I usually would. Hot Summer Nights has four authors that you'll want to start reading, if you haven't read them yet!
Hope Smolders (Hope, Book 0.5) by Jaci Burton
Jane is a harried and busy woman. She's a teacher and has her own two kids to raise all on her own. I liked Jane but thought she was rigid and unfriendly at times. Of course, she has every right to be. But when friends/family want to help her, she generally refuses on principle. Jane doesn't seem to see how she might come off as a total jerk to others, and she doesn't take the time to stop, assess her situation, and accept help.
Will has had a thing for Jane for a long time. He makes his move, and Jane puts him off and pulls him in, and then puts him off and pulls him in again. I can't believe he stuck around so long for the abuse! I felt bad for Will because he's genuinely interested in Jane, but she's just so unforgiving for every little mistake!
In the end, I liked Jane and I liked Will, but I loved them together. Jane kind of transforms and becomes this awesome person who can accept help, and as a side benefit, she becomes much nicer! This was a great story and I can't wait to read more!

Perfect Stranger (Serendipity's Finest, Book 1.5) by Carly Phillips
Alexa is a very good doctor and has worked incredibly hard to get where she is. I can't honestly say why I liked Alexa so much but I did. Perhaps it's because in addition to being an amazing and dedicated doctor, she's also a great friend to Cara (you may remember Cara from Serendipity's Finest Book 1, Perfect Fit). When we meet Alexa, she's trying to cheer Cara up during one of Cara's low times in her relationship with Mike. Then she meets the man who will change her life.
I loved how Luke was able to get Alexa to relax, even if it was only for a short while, and how quickly he was able to break through Alexa's defenses by being honest, charming, and unexpected. I think a lot of men could learn a thing or two from this fictional character!
Despite not loving how Alexa seemed willing to change a lot about herself for this man, or the hard-to-believe fact that Alexa and Luke fell for each other in less than three days, I loved this whirlwind romance! Carly Phillips sucked me right into the story!

The Legend of Jane (Bluebonnet, Book 2.5) by Jessica Clare
Luanne has an internet video program where she does silly/insane/stupid stunts under the guise of "Jane." I loved this idea! I really liked Luanne and had a blast seeing both the Jane side of her and the nice, calm Luanne side of her! I also liked that when she wasn't Jane, Luanne sat around in some ratty old shorts and talked and argued with her sister. It was adorable!
Hank was a little tougher for me to warm up to. He's portrayed as this super quiet, super tall country boy with a definite line between right and wrong. I could certainly understand why he would take issue with Luanne doing the Jane stunts while she was seeing him. I may not have warmed up to him right away since he was SUCH a straight arrow, law abiding type of guy, but once I saw Jane's antics from his point of view, I liked him a lot more.
I loved Hank and Luanne together! If there was ever a case of two people being more perfect for each other, I'd like to know. She got him to relax a little, and he got her to accept some responsibility and sort of grow up a little. I loved every single scene with them together!

Ice Princess by Erin McCarthy
Chelsea is such a smartass and so funny in a sarcastic way. I swear we were separated at birth! I lost count how many times I literally was laughing out loud while reading this. "Even my cooter is numb" is an absolutely classic Chelsea line. I love heroines that have sass and a filthy mouth, and Chelsea fits the bill!
Brody is more of your standard athletic hot guy, but when he's with Chelsea, he's so much more. His reactions to Chelsea are so spot-on that it had me laughing at him as well! Then when Brody is trying to teach Chelsea how to ski…oh, forget it…this story was too damn funny for me to even try to do it justice in a review!
Chelsea is amazing, and Brody is great because he enjoys her humor and just lets her roll with it. Any guy who can let his woman be funny is excellent in my book. They are so cute together that I couldn't help but fall for them as a couple!
Rating: A+
Overall Bottom Line
If you haven't read some of these authors, this would be a great opportunity to try them out to see if you like their writing. On the other hand, if you've read all of these authors, this is an anthology you HAVE to get because each story is great! I loved this collection of novellas, and I'm hoping we get a chance to see all of these couples again in the future.
Overall Rating: A-

Research at the Faculty of Humanities is carried out by six research schools under the aegis of the Amsterdam Institute for Humanities Research. The Amsterdam School of Historical Studies (ASH), one of the six research schools, currently has a vacant PhD position as part of the NWO-funded VICI project 'The Invention of the Refugee in Early Modern Europe' led by Prof. Geert Janssen.
Project description
This PhD project on Morisco displacements is one of five closely-related projects, which together aim to analyse the invention of the refugee in early modern Europe. Funded through a VICI-grant of the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO), the programme seeks to achieve three inter-related objectives:
- to explain the emergence of the refugee as a social category in European society. It will map when, where and why particular migrants started to describe themselves as refugees and trace the models (religious, political, legal) of such discursive strategies;
- to identify the agency of displaced religious minorities in forging transnational solidarity networks. By studying how diasporic communities organized themselves, this project reveals the significance of refugees in shaping media coverage, initiating humanitarian interventions and promoting a new emotional culture that focused on empathy and
- to uncover the impact of refugees on European state formation. This project will examine how the protection and accommodation of displaced men and women interacted with the ambitions of early modern authorities to expand their territories and forge confessional regimes
You will study objectives 1 and 2 by focusing on the agency of expelled Morisco minorities in the 16th and 17th century. You will work closely with two other PhD's, a postdoctoral researcher and the PI. You may obtain a detailed research outline on the project, including potential source material, from the PI Geert Janssen. Prof. Gerard Wiegers will act as co-supervisor of this project.
Your tasks will include:
- completion and defence of a PhD thesis within four years;
- participation in meetings of the project research group and the development of a shared database;
- participation in knowledge dissemination activities;
- presentations of intermediate research results at workshops and conferences;
- participation in the training program of the Graduate School / Research School;
- contribute to teaching courses during the second and/or third year.
If you are the PhD student we are looking for you should:
- have a MA or MPhil degree in Early Modern History, Religious/Islamic Studies, or other relevant field in the Humanities;
- have excellent command of English, preferably a good command of Spanish and/or Arabic;
- have xcellent research skills; preferably have experience with premodern manuscript reading;
- have a strong cooperative attitude and willingness to engage in collaborative research.
Further information
You may obtain further information about this position, including a research outline on the overall project, from:
You will be appointed for 38 hours per week (1.0 FTE) for a period of 48 months at the Department of History, European Studies & Religious Studies of the Faculty of Humanities. We will initially give you a contract for 16 months, with an extension for the following 32 months on the basis of a positive evaluation. The intended starting date of the contract is 1 February 2019. The gross monthly salary (on a full-time basis) will range from €2,266 during the first year to €2,897 during the fourth year. The salary is supplemented with an 8% holiday allowance and an 8.3% end-of-year bonus. The Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities is applicable.

About Crealy
'Great family fun. Take a picnic. Enjoy the South West. Fantastic entertainment crew and shows for the kids. Prepare for the queues atpeak times. Book online to save.'
Opening times: Summer it is fully open 10.00am – 5.30pm, Winter 10.00am-5.00pm excl. water rides (they close over Christmas), and term time 10.00am-5.00pm check on the website what rides are open.
Age: Ideally 1-12 and grandparents.
Location: Exeter, Devon.
'Leo get up.' No reaction. 'Leo get up we are going to Crealy.' The boy is dressed, breakfasted; he even brushes his teeth in the space of 3.5 minutes.
Slight exaggeration but I do not have to drag him by the ankle out of bed as per normal.
I do have to convince him we can't take Ted as he is likely to lose him in the ball pit.
Five year old boys are 3 ft of overexcitement and superhero sound effects, best when outside and active.
It has over 60 rides, indoor and outdoor activities and lots of animals to pet. I tried to steal one of their fluffy lop rabbits once. INEEDITINMYLIFE. The animals are clean and well cared for.
My son loves it.
He would live there if he could, I get a migraine from getting vertigo on the rides after the 10th go, but they make good coffee so I can deal. I think with the type of rides the park caters best to the under 12s…and for parents reliving childhood.
Leo's favourite is the log flume and I like the indoor rides in Atlantis (honestly, this is a kids park..) though my bum got stuck in the teacups. The soft play is gigantic with some of the most terrifyingly enjoyable slides. I had to get another parent to push me down the vertical drop slide. Some parents let their kids in solo and I have stumbled upon a few that have been lost. Maybe for years. I think it would be good to have a few sticky arrows on the floor to direct to the end! That or employ some air stewardesses, the exits are here, here and here…
It is £35 entrance for myself and Leo as he is over 100cm (just, I'm not showing off!). For a year's membership it was £70 each. We live locally and visit regularly, so it is very good value for money.
I think it may seem costly to a family visiting for a yearly one off as some of the outside rides you have to pay extra for but it is a good day out.
I was concerned that the staff all seemed very young, but I think that's is me getting old as they all were happy, helpful and polite. Even when my son would not get off the jungle wars train.
There are larger rides outside, vast play areas and a two large soft play sites of pandemonium for when the weather is bad. When the weather is good there are acres of woodland wilderness to ramble through.
You can also camp which would be great to try out, though I'm still working up to that!
When it rains, we go as often as when it is sunny. It is well laid out with a clear map.
Off season whilst there are minimal queues, in summer it can get busy and the children get tetchy but they do try and move you forwards as quickly as possible.
There are live shows which little ones love.
The toilets are clean, with plentiful baby changing and they are well signposted. The carpark is easy to navigate with ample free parking.
In the holidays they put on events, like the 'Mega Easter Egg Hunt' or 'Halloween creaky hotel'.
Perfect for when you are counting down the seven days, four hours, and six minutes until the end of half term.
Food is reasonably priced and there are a range of different eateries. Both on and off season I have found them to be very busy. We have munched in Adventurers food courts and Mamma Mia's. Leo loves it as he is a fan of chips, nuggets and burgers. I would like to see some more healthy snacks for the little ones, possibly some lunch boxes. It may be I haven't stumbled on this yet!
Members get discounts across the park, like on food, so it is definitely worth going for this option.
The best part: you don't have to exit through gift shop (which had got a massive variety but we do not need any more cuddly toy friends!)
Check out our 'Family Days Out' section for Child friendly activities in the #SouthWest.

Hide Forgot
Two of them so far (and missing links to linux and asm in kernel-headers):
New aacraid won't compile if current (from compiling kernel) kernel
headers not installed. In Makefile in drivers/scsi/aacraid:
# Remember that we're doing a chdir one level lower, so we need an extra
-I./include \
-I/usr/src/linux/include -I/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi
Note the two -I/usr/src/linux/... includes. Those should be
-I$(TOPDIR)/include (unnecessary and bogus, since installed kernel headers
is not the same as for currently complied kernel, them are from previous
kernel at least) and -I$(TOPDIR)/drivers/scsi.
This new driver is in redhat's patches.
And the second one. Latest gcc from rawhide (2.96-20000606)
won't compile kernel anymore, it fails on math emulation package
on i386. I know about issues with compiling kernels with gcc,
but all my previous kernels was compiled by latest gcc (at time
of compiling) release from rawhide, and so far all was ok.
Now (as I don't need math emu on 486 and up) I can just edit
config files (kernel-2.2.16-i?86.config etc) and change math emu
to n.
I believe this to be fixed in Pinstripe; re-open if
I'm wrong.
Ok, this two glitches was gone away.
Math ok, and aacraid also. This issue should be closed now.
(With others remains, like e.g. problems with memcpy() and new gcc,
problems with usage of preprocessor in kernel and new gcc again;
but those are another stories...)

IAS panel to meet pay commission
THE UTTAR Pradesh IAS Association has decided to constitute a three-member committee to make recommendations and make a representation to put across its point before the 6th Pay Commission.india Updated: Aug 23, 2006 01:28 IST
THE UTTAR Pradesh IAS Association has decided to constitute a three-member committee to make recommendations and make a representation to put across its point before the 6th Pay Commission.
A decision in this regard was taken at the executive committee meeting of the UP IAS Association that met here today. As per the decision, the three-member committee would prepare a representation on the issues concerning service conditions along with recommendations to be put up before the 6th Pay Commission. The State Government would, however, put up its case through the Central IAS Association, said the UP IAS Association Secretary Sanjay Bhus Reddy.
The Association has also decided to hold the annual Civil Service Week in mid of December 2006. As per the decision, the association would request the Chief Minister to allocate time for senior administrative officers conference organised annually as part of the Civil Service Week.
A reason to smile
The smile, which crossed the face of the elderly villagers from Banda when principal secretary social welfare department DC Lakha paid Rs 1000 to buy a hand-made bullock cart from them, was to be seen and believed at the UP Sangeet Natak Akademi auditorium on Tuesday.
Lakha was the chief guest at the state-level advocacy workshop organised by HelpAge India under the Poorest Areas Civil Society (PACS) programme and assured all help to the elderly who had turned up from the three most backward districts of UP — Banda, Barabanki and Unnao — to attend the function.
Lakha told AK Singh, joint director (North), HelpAge India that he would try and ensure that the elderly people of these three most backward villages managed to earn a decent living through their craft. "I would speak to the officials concerned," he said much to the delight of the villagers.

This is probably the most beautiful way to climb up Mount Kilimanjaro.
With a lovely, gradual ascent through forest you emerge to see wide views
of the moorland on Shira Plateau and further on the crags and snow of Kibo
and the Western Breach. Beautiful and varied vegetation enhances the
scenery along the route. For those who want a slightly more
technical climb on Mount Kilimanjaro, we recommend a Uhuru summit from
Arrow Glacier camp (through the Western Breach), but less challenging
routes can be taken from Barranco Hut.
After and early morning pick up from your hotel in Arusha or Moshi will drive to the Machame village. Here will do final packing, organize porters and, if need be, purchase last foodstuffs for the trek. Depending on the condition of the road with will either drive or hike on a dirt track another 3 kms through coffee farms and forest to the Park gate. At the gate we will spend an hour or so registering and paying park fees. A clear trail continues up through plantation and natural forest to the ridge between the Weru Stream and the Makoa Stream until the main trailhead is reached. From here a narrow forest (sometimes soggy and wet) path continues up to Machame Campsite.
Day 2-3
After hiking through the forest, the trail and vegetation will dry and you will hike up a steep boulder ridge. At 3-4 hours the trail goes west into a gorge and ascends to Shira Hut/Camp on the Shira Plateau. We will spend a second night in this area around 16,000 feet, doing day hikes to higher altitudes to acclimatize. Alternatively, we will travel to Barranco, Moir or Lava Tower Camp to spend the third night.
Day 4
We will travel to a short distance to Arrow Glacier above the Lava Tower camp. At the glacier you will have impressive views of the Shira plateau behind you and a rock/scree ridge, the Western Breach, in front of you leading up to the crater rim. Alternatively, we take a more moderate Barranco Trail if the Western Breach is to be avoided.
Day 5
Day five will begin shortly after Day four is over. We will break camp early between 1 and 3 a.m. for the last push to Uhuru Peak through the Western Breach. After crossing glacial scree we will head straight up through a steep boulder field (this part of the route is strenuous and not recommended for anyone acrophobia). At the top...Kibo crater. Another 1-2 hours and Uhuru Peak will have been reached. Mount Kilimanjaro, the top of Africa.
From the peak, any route down can be taken, but we recommend Marangu or Mweke. Mweke is less traveled and affords beautiful views of the mountain as we descend to Mweke camp slightly below the tree line.
Day 6
Down through the forest and to the Mweke trailhead/gate. Our car
will pick you up and return you by dinner to your hotel. A hot
shower will be awaiting you...
The uniports are old and have not been maintained well by the Kilimanjaro park service. They are primitive metal structures and are used by the porters/guides for accommodations. They also serve as the cooking area.
Guests sleep in tents which we provide. The only equipment you will need is your own sleeping bag. We normally use 2-person tents, but please let us know if other arrangements are needed.
Pricing Information
All prices include all park fees, salaries of guides/porters/cook, all meals on the mountain, equipment and transfer to/from Arusha or Moshi. Discounts can also be arranged for larger groups. Not included: tips and items of a personal nature.

Rollinson v Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council [2015] All ER (D) 72 (Dec)
With Christmas just around the corner practitioners would be forgiven if their thoughts were on when snow will arrive this festive season. Apart from festive snow and ice what liability is there for other accumulations that cause trips and falls? Mr. Justice Haddon-Cave has had this particular issue to deal with and provides some practical guidance.
In November 2012 the Claimant slipped and fell outside his home. The cause of the slip was the accumulation of moss on the footpath. The Claimant issued proceedings against the Defendant for breach of their duty under s41 of the Highways Act 1980. The claim succeeded at first instance and the Defendant appealed against that decision.
The Defendant's appeal was on the basis that the judge had fallen into error by finding that the duty under s41 extended to removing moss and algae from the highway. Submissions were made that consideration should be given to:
- If moss became part of the surface / fabric of the highway.
- Was there any analogy to be drawn between the moss and concrete bonded to the highway?
- Was moss permanent?
- If the authority attempted to remove the moss was a relevant consideration when interpreting the Highways Act?
- If the Judge had erred in considering that Dudley MBC's duty extended to the removal of moss.
The appeal would be allowed. Moss was transient and the presence of it alone did not damage the surface of the pathway. There was a distinction to be drawn between patches of moss and more mature urban undergrowth that could render a footpath out of repair. Bushes and trees that cause physical damage by entwining themselves in the surface of the footpath can blight pavements, moss by its nature does not. Even if moss did have a root system it did not damage the surface in the same way.
The judge had fallen into error. He was wrong in his findings as to the permanency and impact of moss. Simply because the local authority had cleared it in the past was not a relevant factor when considering the statutory test. To impose a duty on authorities to remove moss from every road, pavement and pathway would not be practical or sensible let alone affordable.
Practitioners will need to consider in future claims if a slip is caused by the presence of vegetation on the highway if that vegetation has damaged the highway itself for a claim to be successful.

In 1915, thirty enterprising papermakers gathered together determined to form a new technical arm of the American Paper & Pulp Association (APPA). Their idea was to gather and disseminate information concerning matters which have to do with production. This forward thinking group wanted to create a forum where information could be channeled and ideas could be exchanged. In less than a year, TAPPI was born and almost 98 years later, their formula for success continues to work.

Kentucky Boy Killed Sister with Gun Marketed to Children
Parents Should Teach Kids about Dangers of Guns
The accidental shooting death of Caroline Sparks, a 2-year-old girl by her 5-year-old brother, Kristian in Burkesville, Kentucky shows that parents are buying guns for their children, but not teaching them about the dangers of guns.
The .22-caliber rifle used to kill the girl was given to her brother as a gift last year. The children's mother said that the shooting occurred after she walked to the front porch last week Tuesday afternoon. When she returned, she saw that her young daughter had been shot in the chest once.
The father of the two children, Mr. White told authorities that the gun was stored in a corner and that they did not know that a bullet was still inside the rifle. The controversy over this death grew as the public learned that the rifle used is called a "Crickett."
The rifle is named after a company that makes guns, clothes and guns for children. "It's a little rifle for a kid," said Mr. White, adding, "The little boy's used to shooting the little gun."
This story is also similar to Adam Lanza's story. His mother, Nancy bought him guns and taught him how to shoot, but the deaths that happened as a result to their knowledge of guns shows that both of these parents did not teach their children that guns are not toys. They can injure and kill people.
The NRA also held a NRA Youth Day and I hope that they can add a lecture about being responsible with guns for their members.

Surviving Betrayal1 Comment Published by Scharada Dubey December 26th, 2007 in General, Couples, Love and Sex, Relationship
EMail This Post
The young woman showed no visible tears, yet, the pain was only too apparent in her large brown eyes. While she had come the previous year for a Tarot reading to tell her about the future of her relationship with someone she loved, this time she was before me because she had discovered that her boyfriend had been married for nine long months – had got hitched up to someone else after meeting her, in fact, and neglected to tell her so. A chance SMS to her boyfriend one day had resulted in his wife calling her back. The nastiest shock of discovering that she even existed had been eclipsed by the humiliation of hearing her advice to 'stay away' from her husband.
Infidelity - Is It Ever Ok?14 Comments Published by Jaya Ramesh July 6th, 2007 in Couples, Relationship
EMail This Post
To this day, 6 years after it happened, Srikant feels he will forever remember the effect of that one phone call he received on that hot summer day. "Hello," said the voice at the other end. "Do you know where your wife is right now?" the voice enquired. And then went on to reveal her whereabouts. Stunned, he called on her cell phone. No answer. It just kept on ringing. The servant at home had no clue either. A week later, the sordid details of her rendezvous with the new man in her life, spilled out of her and stained the landscape of a relationship which he believed had been stable and rock-solid.

From the back of the box
Once the richest source of diamonds in the world, the long deserted mines of Prince Julian are rumoured to still hold much treasure. Legend also has it that help captive in the mines is the one who holds the key to world peace, prosperity, and good seats at the Superbowl.
Dare you descend into the labyrinthian depths where many a brave adventurer has gone but never returned? Have you the courage to face the strange and terrifying creatures who guard those dark corridors where the walls are in constant motion, exposing entryways and sealing off exits? Perhaps you will be the lucky one who will return alive to tell us of the mysterious prisoner in the mines, and if the wealth they are believed to hold really exists.

C.

D. No liability shall be imposed upon the Attorney General for any omissions or the incorrect inclusion of any individual on the listing required under subsection A. No liability shall be imposed upon any attorney for the Commonwealth or law-enforcement official who provides information to the Attorney General in accordance with subsection B.

Peak seasons can result in a busy workload that might be difficult to complete if you do not have the appropriate solutions in place. Unfortunately, this can result in a lack of employee morale, inaccurate orders, and dissatisfied customers. We are therefore showing you how to process orders during your busiest seasons.
Offer Incentives
Your busiest seasons can often result in highly-stressed employees, who might experience low morale that impacts their productivity levels. It is therefore essential to keep your staff both happy and motivated during peak periods. One way to do so is by offering an incentive, which will make employees work much harder to meet orders on schedule. For example, you could provide them with a monthly bonus if they meet a deadline.
Operational Improvements
Make necessary operational improvements to improve the picking process for employees. For instance, reduce the steps a picker needs to take to retrieve an item or slot products correctly. Aim to automate different elements of the business when possible.
You must also review the facility to identify if there is room for improvement to be made. For example, a customized conveyor belt can make the manufacturing and picking process much easier. Turn to fluentconveyors.com to learn more about their customized sorting solutions.
Provide Steady Shifts for Employees
Don't add to employee stress by scheduling them in for varied work days, split shifts, and different working hours. Increase employee morale by providing your permanent employees with reliable shifts and work times, which will make them happier during peak seasons. What's more, the steady shifts will prevent you from having to hire temporary employees to fill empty working hours.
Promote Hardworking Employees
Even the most hardworking, loyal employees will become demotivated if there is little thanks or reward for their efforts. Don't allow talent to go to waste and maintain employee commitment or enthusiasm with career progression, which will allow you to retain your best staff whilst improving your business. Their positive attitude will also allow them to lead by example, which will encourage other people to work just as hard.
Introduce Portable Workstations
Are your pickers forced to walk to the other end of the warehouse to review inventory data or order information? If so, you are not only wasting their time, but you are reducing business productivity. We therefore recommend introducing portable workstations, which will allow employees to gain access to a computer terminal with ease, instead of walking the length of the warehouse to review order or inventory details. As a result, they can focus solely on the picking process, which will allow your business to process orders at a faster rate – which is essential during peak seasons!
Train Your Employees
A lack of productivity could be a result of a lack of training. Improve internal processes by providing the knowledge, tools and experience an employee needs to excel in their role. The training can aid their performance in the workplace, which can lead to faster picking, packing and shipping, so you will never disappoint a customer.

A new arrival from our favourite Adelaide Hills winery! This wine is 98% Savagnin (not to be confused with Sauvignon!), a lesser-seen variety whose best expression in its native France can be found in the Jura. The juice sits on its skins for one month before going into barrel for natural malolactic fermentation to occur. It retains wonderful freshness while delivering a fanfare of baked apples, honey-roast pears, camomile, dried apricots, orange peel, peaches and cream, and a decidedly herbal perfume of fresh oregano, sage and a hint of fennel. An uplifting, singing acidity adds brightness to the otherwise soft and round palate, making for a lip-smackingly good, dangerously gluggable summer gem. Resist the temptation to drink it all at once though - this wine demands good company and at leat one full evening of deep contemplation.
A note from Brendon: "Glinting like a golden beach bathed in late-afternoon sun, the nose on this wine is surprisingly musky, rustic and – dare we say – 'red'. The aromas evoke a firm cheese spiked with peppercorns or a young sopressa. The palate is quinine-tangy, lemon pith and almost saline with an enticing tannic backbone of young rosemary. Juicy pear fruits to taste. An uncommonly complete and complex white."

Swim Classes
Blue Buoy Swim School Lessons in Orange County
Starting children in swim lessons early makes the learning process much easier. With consistent, ongoing lessons, babies and toddlers can be moving and breathing in the pool independently by the time they're three or four and even begin learning some basic swimming strokes. The students have a lot of fun learning how to swim and becoming safer (never consider them "pool safe") as they develop their water skills and learn a respect for swimming pool safety rules and their behavior in and around the water.
Dedicated, Personal Swim Trainers
Blue Buoy's swim instructors are all experienced, 19 years of age and older, and are permanent members of the Blue Buoy Swim School family in Orange County, with the expectation that they will be here to work with your child for many years to come. Our swim teachers undergo comprehensive theoretical and hands-on training through Blue Buoy's internationally renowned swimming teaching philosophy and methods, and all our teachers are CPR & First Aid certified. Our instructors' expertise and passion for teaching swimming has made Blue Buoy Orange County's most recommended swim school.
Personalized Swim Classes That Suit Your Needs
Better Teaching with Enhanced Swimming Facilities
Our exceptional teaching methods are tailored to meet each child's needs whether they are enrolling in swimming classes for babies, toddlers, kids, or want swim training to be more competitive. Blue Buoy's outstanding swim instructors, customized facilities, and positive reinforcement will help your child succeed. Small swim classes make it possible for our swim instructors to give each child the attention needed to best help them learn. The shallow indoor pool and large outdoor pool located at our Orange County swim facility are both kept bathtub-warm, provide the perfect environments for your children to learn how to swim and improve their skills.
Open Swim Training Schedule
We offer swim lessons throughout the week in the morning, afternoon, and early evening (Mon-Thu 9a-8p, Fri 9a-5p, and Sat 9a-1p) so that you can schedule a regular weekly lesson time that will fit your busy schedule. We include a 10 minute play/practice time before or after every class. We also encourage all of our enrolled students to take advantage of free Open Swim times so they can practice the skills they are learning in lessons.
Flexible Scheduling
Our helpful office staff is here to help with your busy life. We provide flexible scheduling and generous absence and make-up policies will make your and your child's experience at Blue Buoy Swim School in Orange County, both enjoyable and effective.
We have three swim class options for children under age three: you can start with Parent & Me, and then switch over to a Semi-Private or Private class when you and your child have acquired the swimming skills to progress. Children of any age can start directly in semi-private or private lessons.
You can schedule lessons for once or twice a week (or more). Many students start lessons with a swim instructor twice a week. Once they've built a foundation, some students attend classes once a week that fits both your child's needs and your schedule. The important thing when enrolling at our Orange County swim school is to find the class and schedule with the best fit for you and your child. Please keep in mind that ongoing swimming classes for kids are particularly important for developing & retaining their skills in the water.

I went for my sixth month check-up yesterday, and everything looks great, but I have to admit, I am getting very scared. When I came home to jot down all my check-up info like weight, fetal heartbeat, etc. into my pregnancy book, I noticed something that has been nagging me for quite some time. Everything about this pregnancy is identical to Elliot's . . . . . ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! At 22 weeks, I weigh the exact same as I did with Elliot, the fetal heartbeat is the exact same (150), and I was sick at the beginning of both of these pregnancies. Mind you, I was not as sick with Elliot as I have been with Thing 4, but still, I never vomited once with either Zoe or Avery. If this trend keeps going, that means in about four months I will be the proud mama of one, very colicky, albeit adorable baby . . . eeeeeek!
The other day, Elliot mentioned that it would be so neat if Thing 4 was the same as him, and I nearly passed out. When he is with Zoe and Avery, he feels like the odd man out. Everything comes so easily to the two of them and from his point of view, they excel in everything they do; therefore, it would be great for him to have a kindred spirit, a person he can relate to and impart all his words of wisdom to, but . . . . is this really a possibility? Would Heavenly Father really send me two special little spirits? Oh man, as much as I love Elliot and would not trade him for the world, I pray that he is one of kind in this household. When I confessed my fears to Mr. Level-Headed via text, his response was:
No worries. Elliot is awesome. You can handle two.
I love how confident he is in my abilities.
Anyhoo . .
We all know I will love this baby to the moon and back no matter what so I am going to stop fretting now and continue to fantasise about who and what Thing 4 will be like. If there is one thing I have noticed with all of my kids is that not one of them is truly alike. They are all unique, they all have amazing abilities, and they all drive me crazy from time to time.
The other big news at my appointment was that I have gained 5 pounds. Hooray! This makes me very happy since I was not gaining weight in the beginning thanks to round the clock vomiting, but now I am on a roll. I confessed to my doctor that my weight gain probably had something to do with the THREE poutines I ate over the weekend and she laughed. She also assured me that she has heard of worst of cravings and that I didn't need to worry about it. Hmmmm . . . is this the green light to indulge even more? NO!!!
While we were in PEI, yes I tried three different poutines and I have to say they were all very yummy. The first night we were in Charlottetown, we went to dinner with three other families from Zoe's team. As it turned out, I was sitting with the other moms and I was DYING for a poutine and Coke. It had been two weeks since my last indulgence and all I could think about was some salty, cheesy, ooey, gooey goodness chased down by a little black death. After they all ordered their salads and wine, which sounds so very grown-up, it was my turn and I sheepishly turned to the waitress and told her my order. I have never felt so self-conscious in all my life, which is absolutely foolish. I felt like my young self, seated before the priest in those dark confessional boxes of my Catholic Church, confessing all my sins, some made-up and some not so made-up . . . this is a whole other story . . . anyhoo . . . The minute my order left my trembling lips, I turned to the other ladies and confessed to them, almost apologetically, that I am pregnant and that poutine is my craving. The minute I announced this, the whole table erupted in congratulations and laughter. We had a grand chat after that, and it was so nice to finally break the ice with these women, whom I have sat with to watch many soccer games but really never knew well.
Anyhoo . . .
Man, I keep getting off topic this morning. So, here is the run down of my PEI poutine splurge:
- Swiss Chalet has AWESOME poutine! They smother it in gravy and the gravy is thick and yummy.
- Wendy's makes a very yummy poutine and it is cheap. They use lots of cheese and their new fries are very good.
- Ken's Island Fries, a truck parked in the Walmart parking lot, makes alright poutine. The fries were too thick for my liking and Ken was skimpy on the cheese. Seriously, though, what did I expect from a truck parked in front of Walmart . . . tee hee!
|Wendy's - Look at all that cheese!
|Awesome gravy, but so little cheese!
So, the final standings are:
For franchised restaurants:
1. Swiss Chalet
2. Wendy's
3. Deluxe
For locally-owned restaurants:
1. Kredl's/Poutine Shack at Kingston Market
2. Peddler's Creek
3. Reid's Point Pub
Sorry, Ken.
This weekend, my hubby is taking me to Grannan's for my weekly poutine indulgence, and I am so excited. I heard they won the Great Saint John Poutine Challenge a few weeks ago, and I am expecting big things. Big things, folks. Grannan's, please don't disappoint me.
Since you stuck with this ridiculously long and terribly random post of mine, I am going to reward you with some very embarrassing pictures of me and my belly. The amazon, super-modelesque woman beside me is my baby sister, Emily. She is only two weeks behind me in her pregnancy and for the record, she is not craving poutine and she is thirteen years younger than me and she is carrying her FIRST not her FOURTH baby.
I have titled these photos: An Elven Mama and a Hobbit Mama
I probably won't have to tell you whose who.
I love how her body dwarfs mine and how I had to stick my head out just so you could see me. I guess this is just further proof that although siblings grow up in the same household together, have many of the same experiences, and have the same parents, they all grow up to be unique individuals. Phew! I have nothing to fear then. ;)
Happy Thursday!

Meek's Cutoff is a 2010 American western film directed by Kelly Reichardt. The film was shown in competition at the 67th Venice International Film Festival.[2] The story is loosely based on a historical incident on the Oregon Trail in 1845, in which frontier guide Stephen Meek led a wagon train on an ill-fated journey through the Oregon desert along the route later known as the Meek Cutoff in the western United States.
In 1845, a small band of settlers traveling across the Oregon High Desert suspect their guide, Stephen Meek, may not actually know where he is going. What was supposed to be a two-week journey, via what became known as the Meek Cutoff, stretches into five. With no relief in sight, tensions rise as water becomes increasingly scarce and supplies run low. The wives look on as the husbands discuss what to do, unable to participate in the decision making. The dynamics of power begin to shift when they capture a lone native and hold him captive in the hopes he will lead them to water. Meek argues the native can't be trusted, though doesn't present a more trustworthy leader himself. When he steps up to shoot the native, Mrs. Tetherow intervenes. In the end, when Mr. Tetherow succumbs to hardship, Meek submits to Mrs. Tetherow, who pins her hopes on the native.

Critical reception[edit]
Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 85% based on reviews from 108 critics and reports a rating average of 7.5 out of 10, a generally positive reception. It reported the consensus, "Moving at a contemplative speed unseen in most westerns, Meek's Cutoff is an effective, intense journey of terror and survival in the untamed frontier."[3] At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the film received an average score of 85 based on 36 reviews.[4]

When I die, I want to die alone. I want all the attention. I want a scene of sobbing friends and fainting family. I want the whole village, the neighborhood and the industry to talk about me. I want lots of "Ya haram, did you hear about what happened to Tania?" to be answered by a sudden breath in, a hand on the chest, freeze of the eyes, followed by silence. Long heavy silence.
Yes I am aware that I'm sounding like a sad attention seeker but everyone deserves to die alone a natural death or in a banal unfortunate accident as opposed to be group massacred and burnt to death by Israeli white phosphorus illegally used in a horror scene that even the cheesiest Hollywood scriptwriter is embarrassed to come up with.
I often thought about collecting the names of the victims as a simple act of remembrance or in order to re-act the fuss that should have been triggered by their death and defying the collective and nonexclusive brutality that the killers have forced on them.
During the 2006 Israeli war on Lebanon and after the media switched from mentioning the victims names to numbers, such as "30 people died today and 55 were injured," I started collecting the names and photos of the dead and thought of using them in a performance. I ended up with an inbox on my computer full of burnt corpses and infants with half blown bodies and long months of terrifying nightmares.
Today I found the names of 352 Palestinian children who died two years ago during the Israeli war on Gaza (a massacre that killed 1400 Palestinians.) Some of these children were three months old. This is the full list. Read it.

2500 SE Moberly Lane
Bentonville, AR 72712
BMW designers wanted the 4 Series to look more classic, not quite retro but more classic like the old 3 Series. The final result looks broader and bolder than the 3, and it looks excellent in profile, a nice balance of steel and glass, low roofline, sharp shoulder line, and stance of an athlete. The front fascia is creative. But it still can't hold a candle to the styling of the Mercedes C-Class.
The adventurous cabin presents sweeping arcs and flashy trim options, for example red-stitched leather, and red things in the instrument cluster.
If it's not a driver's cockpit, it's a driver's layout, distanced from the passenger by arcs of plastic, wood and metal on the center stack
The Convertible's hardtop folds and stows in 20 seconds, into the trunk that still retains 7.8 of its 13.0 cubic feet, with room for growth, as the rear seatback folds, leaving a space to the trunk. The Convertible comes with a windblock and neck warmers.

Kansas credit unions' assets rose in first quarter, report says
A regulator's quarterly report on Kansas chartered credit unions showed another good three-month period for the financial cooperatives.
But regulators said Wednesday that persistently low interest rates are beginning to have an effect on some credit unions.
The Kansas Department of Credit Unions' First Quarter 2013 Call Report Statistics said that total assets climbed 6.51 percent to $4.87 billion from the first quarter of 2012. In that same period, total loans grew 5.47 percent to $3.06 billion.
And the delinquency ratio edged up five-tenths of a percentage point to 0.86 percent from last year's first quarter.
John Smith, KDCU administrator, said credit union assets generally grow the most in the first quarter of every year. He said he's not certain why that is but speculates it could be from an influx of tax refunds and year-end bonuses.
Smith acknowledged that it was yet another good quarter for Kansas-chartered credit unions. But he said the unknown is low interest rates and their effect on credit unions. It is something he and Michael Baugh, the department's financial examiner administrator, are closely watching.
Baugh said that he's seeing some credit unions beginning to react to a federal funds rate that has been at near zero since December 2008. The federal funds rate is tied to the rates financial institutions offer on loans. The low rates mean margins are tight, Baugh said.
"The unknown is when interest rates are going to be increased," Smith said.
Baugh said there are instances in which some credit unions are charging fee income on some products and services, such as on loan applications and bad checks.
Credit unions generally don't like to institute fees for members, who technically hold ownership shares in the institutions to which they belong. But Baugh and Smith said fee income is one way for credit unions to offset tight rate margins.
"There's a real reluctance to go the fee route to try to generate income just because it is outside the credit union model of doing business," Baugh said.

Cllr. Dermot Looney, a Labour party representative on South Dublin County Council, is demanding that the Council refuse to deal with French multinational company Veolia given their role in building an illegal light rail system in East Jerusalem. Looney is bringing a motion to tomorrow's (July 12th) full Council meeting to highlight the construction of a light rail system linking Israel to illegal settlements in East Jerusalem, and the involvement of Veolia, who run the LUAS service in Dublin as well as waste and water services across the world.
Looney's motion comes on foot of similar motions passing in Dublin City Council, Galway City Council, Sligo County Council, Donegal County Council and Castlebar Town Council, and has the full support of the Irish Palestine Solidarity Campaign. A similar motion will also be brought to Fingal County Council tomorrow by Labour Councillor Patrick Nulty.
"Veolia's involvement in this project is utterly illegal and immoral," stated Looney "and I am asking South Dublin Councillors to join forces in demanding that the County Manager does not sign any contracts with Veolia."
"Ireland has a long record of international solidarity, including the historic role of Irish people in opposing apartheid in South Africa through boycotts and other actions. I believe that the representatives of a quarter of a million citizens in South Dublin are right to demand an ethical procurement policy which will rule out Veolia until such time as they disinvest from this illegal light rail system," said Looney.
John Dorman, Divestment Officer with the Irish Palestine Solidarity Campaign, said that "the IPSC fully supports Cllr. Looney's motion, and strongly encourages all councillors in South Dublin County Council to vote in favour of it. They will be following in the proud footsteps of their colleagues in councils in Dublin, Galway and Sligo who have also adopted similar motions saying 'no' to a company that collaborates with the Israeli.state's theft of Palestinian land. Furthermore, the IPSC encourages all Irish town, city and county councils to pass such motions."
Text of motion is as follows;
"That this Council, in light of the ongoing suffering of the Palestinian people, recognises (1) that Veolia is a leading partner in the consortium contracted to build a light railway system linking Israel to illegal settlements in occupied East Jerusalem, (2) that the Irish government and the U.N does not recognise Israel's annexation and occupation of East Jerusalem and have repeatedly stated their views that the Israeli settlements in East Jerusalem and the West Bank contravene international law and (3) that Veolia's involvement in the project is in contravention of the UN's stated demand that Israeli settlement activities and occupation should not be supported, and calls on the County Manager not to sign any new or renew any existing contracts with Veolia."

Well, after spending a week going through boxes, (and finding treasures I had forgotten about) I think my mission is pretty well accomplished. As far the website, anyway. Now that I've managed to get ALL of them out, next task is to pack up all the duplicates, and put them away for safe keeping! What have I gotten myself into??? Those fancy maze gardens in England have nothing on me. I have one made out of teapots! And it's in my living room. Maybe I should leave them there and sell tickets.........hmmm.......
OK, I need some feedback on a project. I am putting together a book on Alcock, Lindley and Bloore teapots. All you ALB collectors out there, tell me what you think. Good idea? Bad idea? Not sure? Would any of you be willing to contribute? A short article telling how you got started collecting, and why. What kind of information would you like to see? Basic info on market prices? Insurance values? Or more of a design and style book, without pricing. I'm going to do this, so you may as well get your "two cents worth" in. Leave your ideas here, or email me. Naturally, anyone who contributes will get full credit.
Guess I better get back to packing teapots, or they might start multiplying!
I bought a teapot....... Just a teapot....... An old one, and kind of unusual. I had to find out about the maker's mark, and thus began a wonderful journey! 15 years later, and I now have over 250 ALB teapots. Not to mention a couple of coffee pots, a tankard, milk jugs, sugar bowls, and a plate. Little by little, more people are being enticed by these lovely teapots, and starting collections of their own. This blog was set up so that all ALB lovers could have a place to meet, share photos, ask questions, and in general get to know each other and share their appreciation for these lovely teapots. If you leave a question, please be kind enough to leave an email address, so someone may send you an answer!
So come on in, sit down, have a "cuppa", and enjoy.
