Just loved these lines about LIFE..!!
When I got enough confidence, the stage was gone..
When I was sure of losing, I won..
When I needed people the most, they left me..
When I learnt to dry my tears, I found a shoulder to cry on..
When I mastered the skill of hating, Someone started loving me from the core of the heart..
& While waiting for light for hours when I fell asleep, the sun came out..
That's LIFE !!
No matter what u plan u never know what life has planned for u..
"Success introduces you to the world, But Failure introduces the world to you .."
– Always be Happy !!
Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, God smiles from above and says, "Relax, sweetheart; it's just a bend, not the end!!

List Your Business
"Feel yourself being gently drawn by the
deeper pull of what you really love."
It seems that my life has been dictated by an inner drive to find what is real, what is worth really wanting and
in looking for ways to find it.
This path has taken me to colleges, meditation centers, work places and art studios. It has taken me to India & Turkey
and to my own back yard. It has taken
me here to this place and to the
offering of Healing Journeys.
I am grateful for the opportunity to
play a part
in a
healing and transformation.
It feels to be both a privilege
and a fulfillment of a heart's desire.
Savarna has much experience in healing, counseling and teaching. Exploring Holistic Heath was an early interest. In the 1970s she began her study and practice of yoga and contemplative Christianity, took her first class in hypnotherapy, completed a Holistic Health training program and worked as a Holistic Health Educator and Massage Therapist.
Working with children who did not speak led her to appreciate the richness of non-verbal communication. Exploring their drawings opened the way to study the power of symbol and image to communicate. She developed a BA program in Art Therapy at University of California, Santa Cruz and in 1983 graduated with honors.
A Masters degree in Transpersonal Psychology allowed her to study the workings of the mind and heart and explore ways people cope with challenge. Focusing on the Ways People Pray, she was one of the first to do graduate work in psychology on the subject of prayer and won honors in this study in 1988.
Nineteen years experience working as a hospice chaplain has offered incredible lessons about death and life. Being a member of an Ethics Board for end-of-life issues and her on-going studies in inter-religious dialog continue to enrich perspectives on what is universal in the human experience. Savarna presents Partners in Caring workshops to clergy and faith leaders on end-of-life issues as well as offering support to hospice staff members.
The study and practice of hypnosis, NLP, and other modes of working that acknowledge the importance of our sub conscious patterning has brought great fulfillment. "It is exciting to see the ways people change, the resiliency of spirit and the on-going affirmation that all the wisdom we need is inside."
Savarna has been an instructor for Transpersonal Hypnotherapy School and currently teaches a specialized form of hypnosis for The Newton Institute.

Government workers will get Thursday June 14 off work.
The end of Ramadan is fast approaching, and now we know what that means in terms of days off for those employed in the UAE's public sector.
Federal employees will be out of the office from June 14 until the third day of Shawwal, the government's human resources department has announced.
Private school fees in Dubai won't increase this year
Our ultimate Eid Al Fitr gift guide for 2018
Exactly how long that is will depend on the moon — if Ramadan ends on June 15, as is expected, public sector workers will also get Sunday June 17 off work.
FAHR announced Eid al Fitr holiday for the Federal Government pic.twitter.com/bNFjE3BhMA
— FAHR (@FAHR_UAE) June 11, 2018
However, we won't know for sure until Thursday evening, and no announcement has yet been made for the private sector.
We've got our fingers crossed for a long weekend, but it's by no means a sure thing.
For the most part, Eid Al Fitr is marked by two to three days off for both the public and private sectors. This year, as it falls over a weekend, that might change.
Could this be when Eid Al Fitr will fall for 2018?
HH Sheikh Mohammed visited these Ramadan volunteers
Eid Al Fitr marks the end of Ramadan, the Holy Month which sees practising Mulsims fast from sunrise to sunset each day.
It also involves shorter working hours — usually two hours for the private sector.
Should Ramadan end on June 15, that would mean a 29-day Holy Month for 2018.
We'll keep you updated on the private sector dates as soon as we have them.
In the mean time, perhaps you'd like to check out the full list of holidays still left to celebrate in the UAE for 2018?

Diamonds …a girls best friend.
In this case it is not the sparkly, cut glass kind but the quaker kind in the stitching world. Yes, I am finally posting photos (click on photo for larger image) of my progress on Quaker Diamonds by Rosewood Manor.
I am stitching this piece on the recommended fabric: Mello by Picture This Plus as well as using the recommended Valdani Floss. I would have made even more progress on it this past weekend but I am currently experiencing a mild case of tendonitis in my right elbow. Hence, very little stitching. I think the only thing I did do that was stitching related was move the Q-Snaps. I also set up a folder on my laptop called Stitching WIP's which has folders within it of each of my current WIP's with those folders containing pictures of the WIP's. I guess that can be considered stitching related. 🙂 I am hoping to track my progress better on my projects so that I can see the progress of each piece.
I am still toying with the idea of starting Indian Summer Reflections by Martina Rosenberg. I was trying to decide between the recommended fabric or a real pale yellow and I think I have decided on the pale yellow. The yellow is actually the fabric that Taj Mahal was to be stitched on but I changed my mind on that as well and am stitching it on Pink Lemonade by Country Stitch. Since I am still not 100% sure of the fabric, I am going to continue plugging away on Quaker Diamonds. Besides, I am still enjoying the piece so why put it away for something else.
Tonights menu: Sweet and Sour Chicken.
With love,
~ by wistitcher on October 18, 2010.
One Response to "Diamonds …a girls best friend."
Great progress, and organizing your pics definitely counts as being stitching related! Looking forward to more WIP pics!

Best cellar system I've had.
It's made my life easier, not having to turn on the pipes. Using the system we don't even have to think about it anymore other than turning it on.
It's the best cellar system I've had and also the most reliable.
Pubs & Bars
Overall a very efficient, effective service. It's been very reliable and a great acquisition in comparison to the old school system
Highly recommend to all pubs.
SmartDispense system has led to great customer feedback on quality of beer
Fantastic over busy Christmas period, makes beer colder and no wastage. Was very sceptical but so glad we got it installed.
I would recommend to anyone due to savings, not having to chill cellar and keeps beer perfect every time.
Would recommend to anyone.
There has been no real innovation in dispense systems for decades, which is perhaps why licensees are so pleased with the results our systems deliver. The unit raises the quality of the serve with a cold delivery system, providing a perfect pour every time. It's the quality of the first pint which encourages your customers to order a second and SmartDispense can help licensees offer just that.

Financial wellness: having a healthy relationship with your finances by understanding how you can spend and save your money thoughtfully.
Stress, loss of focus, low morale and sickness are all issues that can arise from employees having low financial wellness, causing Indian businesses an estimated Rs.33 Crores per annum.

We're walking a tightrope in India and nobody wants to admit that there's a problem.
So what actions can employers take to promote financial wellness among their employees? Fortunately, we at AssuredGain are confident we have found a solution in the form of our Financial Wellness Programs.
Low financial wellness among employees causes more problems than you might think.

Candlelight vigil planned for Saturday to commemorate recent gay teen suicides
A candlelight vigil is planned for Saturday to commemorate the rash of suicides in the past few weeks of several LGBT young people due to bullying.
The Atlanta chapter of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence known as the Order of the Flaming Sugarbakers are organizing the vigil, called "A Time to Remember," that will begin at Brushstrokes in Ansley Mall at 7:30 p.m. and then march to 10th and Piedmont.
"[The suicides] are breaking our hearts," said Rick Westbrook, aka Rapture Divine Cox. "We've all dealt with bullying growing up. We want our queer youth to know that it does get better.
"We want to remember the people who thought they had to end their lives and let them know it gets better and there are people who can help them make it stop," he added.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
I like hardcore music. Punk rock. Screamo. Death metal. That's basically all I'm listening to these days. But you know what else?
I fucking love Daft Punk, the French electronica group composed of Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Cristo. Their bizarre, wildly innovative music routinely blows me away. When I heard that they were doing the score for the upcoming Tron Legacy, my interest level ratcheted up about 300%. Now that I've seen some footage, and the trailers, I'm downright giddy.
And now we've got a taste of that soundtrack and score. Below we've got ten minutes of music from the score for Tron Legacy, by Daft Punk. Apparently, they'll be releasing two albums when the film comes out in December -- one that is the full score to the film, one of music that they created for the Tron universe. Whatever. I love it.

If you have Children and live in a small home, you can feel the emotions of this picture! Having a smaller home or apartment is never a bad thing but, it can be quite frustrating when new things come into the home and you have no space for the new items. This picture was taken BEFORE Christmas so imagine what my living room would have looked like if I had not have jumped into action! So on Black Friday and a few weeks after, I slowly started to purchase the items That I need to get this freaking house in order. Organization always takes a little time, especially when money is involved lol. So lets kick the new year off right and jump right in!
My first purchase was from Big Lot's. I got 2 storage cubes for about 40 bucks. They were on sale so the original price for these cubes was $39.99. Storage cubes are always an awesome way to organize your home and it still look some what chic, so to speak.
Side Note: These cubes were hard as hell to put together. IKEA had nothing on these things lol. So if you are looking for cubicle storage be sure to ask a clerk how easy or hard the piece is to put together. Or see if they are willing to let you see the instructions before hand.
Next I purchased these cubicle storage bins from Amazon. A pack of 6 bins cost about $10.99 so I bought 2 packs for a total of $21.98. Which is awesome considering that most storage bins are at the cheapest $3.99 a piece anywhere else.
I also purchased this simple ottoman from Walmart for about $27. This was also another sale item that I just so happen to find walking through the place. Long story short, shop around! Don't be in such a hurry to get organized that you spend more money than you have to! Even if that means buy your items one item at a time. Its all good, it will get done don't worry!
Once I had all the items I needed, I grabbed both kids and start to put things in their new homes. I made it into a game so the kids were more than excited for this project. Which is super important if you don't want to do all the work yourself. I mean… it is their stuff after all!
Once every thing has a home… BOOM! You're done! Now you can invite people over with out the shame of the junk corner, front and center! lol
I hope this helped you guys out in anyway. If you have any questions , be sure to leave a comment below. I love when you guys comment! As usual if you would like to see the in depth process, Just click on the video below 🙂

Ultrasound waves can help improve DVT treatmentNovember 24th, 2008 - 1:02 pm ICT by ANI
Washington, Nov 24 (ANI): A research team led by an Indian origin scientist suggests that using ultrasound waves along with clot-busting drugs can effectively treat deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
A DVT is a blood clot that forms in a vein deep in the body, most often in the lower leg or thigh.
A loose clot, called an embolus, can break off and travel through the bloodstream to the lungs and block blood flow. The life-threatening condition is called pulmonary embolism.
"These clots are a main cause of both heart attacks and stroke and the more quickly you can eliminate them the better," said Dr Karthikeshwar Kasirajan, assistant professor of surgery in the Emory University School of Medicine.
"We now know that using ultrasound, along with the traditional method of using drugs to break up or dissolve blood clots, will help restore flow, prevent valve damage and also prevent the possibility of pulmonary embolism," he added.
During the study, the researchers treated 37 patients with the clot-dissolving drug called tPA, while using ultrasound to loosen the proteins in their blood clots and send the drug into the clots faster.
Of the 37, 16 had DVT and 21 had acute in-situ arterial thrombosis.
All the patients with arterial thrombosis had their clots completely dissolved, and all but six of the DVT patients had theirs completely dissolved.
However, four DVT patients had their clots partially dissolved and two saw no change.
The study was presented at the annual VEITH symposium in New York City. (ANI)

Commentary: Grenada Constitutional Reform: NDC take warning!
By J. K. Roberts
A resolution was passed at the annual convention on 24th January 2016 of the main opposition political party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), seeking a Vote No on all of the Constitutional (Amendment) Bills. This must have been a very conscious and well thought-out decision, but how effective and meaningful will be its impact must be of grave concern.
|J. K. Roberts is not an expert on the professional disciplines highlighted in his writings, but sees himself as having keen and passionate interest in public policies' advocacy and analysis. He is a 'premature retiree' of the public service of Grenada, the author of two books ("Into The 21st Century", 1995, and "Management Practices in The Public Service of Grenada", 2011) and the founder of a civil society organisation called National Initiative for Prolific Policies (NIPP Grenada Inc.) for well over a decade and a half.
The passing of the Vote No resolution may not have been an easy decision to be made by the NDC, from a political point of view, especially considering the scornful rebuke that the party got when it withdrew representation in March 2015 from the 14-member multi-sectorial Constitution Reform Advisory Committee (CRAC). However, the NDC should have no reservations and regrets about the resolution since it resonates with the sentiments of the conscious and objective Grenadians, resulting from the disregard by the powers-that-be to meet the cries and concerns for having decent attitude and approach on the reform project. Review the articles "Grenada Constitutional Reform: Patriotically reconsider please!" which makes the call for a revamping of the process, and "Grenada Constitutional Reform: Prepare To Oppose" which establishes the context for voting no at the referendum.
At the same time, it would be politically foolish for the NDC to rely on the constitutional referendum to test the readiness and strength for the next general elections which is constitutionally due within the first half of 2018.
The experience in St Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG) should give sound warning on this. Whilst the electorate answered the call by the opposition New Democratic Party and voted no at the constitution reform polls in SVG in November 2009, the general elections that followed in December 2010 saw the ruling United Labour Party returned to lead the government.
Moreover, although there is the strong likelihood of not having the referendum before the next general elections in Grenada, there is also the possible strategy by the ruling New National Party (NNP) to conduct the elections on the heels of the referendum, with the view of weakening the tenacity and capacity of the NDC for the elections after expending much efforts and resources on the referendum.
It must be understood and upheld that the reform project is a noble and sovereign exercise which ought to be undertaken without political prejudices, in the interest of the nation. However, this principle ought not to be taken to mean that political parties are isolated and are debarred from the exercise. Thus for example, the parties do not have to remain silent in the occurrence of blatant irregularities and neither do they have to refrain from advancing a plan of their own.
The Vote No resolution is not about politicizing the exercise nor is it about derailing the exercise; but rightly so, the resolution is about the expression of a civil duty to guide the people, to value participatory democracy and to safeguard the nation, within sound and sensible judgements. The prosperity and sovereignty of Grenada cannot and must not be sacrificed for compromise towards consensus on a flawed process; this would be tantamount to conspiracy for treason against the state.
The further task of the NDC is to convince the people and to rebut its critics; but unfortunately, NDC has not yet been able to promote and to defend the resolution cleverly and forcefully. Read the previous article "Grenada Constitutional Reform: NDC speak up!".
Most critical is for the NDC to show leadership and fortitude on its Vote No resolution; and this also requires being politically alert and astute. The NDC may have been naïve, cowardly, slow and confused in establishing an early position on the reform project and had done some things that would come back to haunt it; a case in point being the signing by NDC of both reports by the CRAC to the government on the proposals for the referendum.
Whilst the NDC has to be prudent, diplomatic and strategic, especially in respect of the signals being sent to institutional bodies and the international community, it must not appear to be docile, reactive and wavering. The NDC must go forward with the view that although the resolution may put a damper on the referendum, it will not be responsible for any failure of the referendum; but rather, the anticipated failure is a resultant of the widespread deficiencies, repeated mistakes, gross uncertainties, and severe insults to the people which mark the reform project. Also read the previous article, "Grenada Constitutional Reform: Emerging embarrassments!"
The NDC must also come to the point to realize that the Vote No resolution cannot stand by itself. The party should be occupied with producing and presenting a clear comprehensive package on constitution reform, with the provision of a policy on the process for the referendum. Whilst the NDC has leveled complaints and criticisms at the powers-that-be on the reform project, it has not given definite correctness and recommendation for improvements.
It is not consoling and sufficient for the NDC to say that when the party returns to power then the Grenadian people will see what will be done for the reform, that the Cabinet has to be removed from the process, that the CRAC has failed to subscribe to the required mandate and mission of the project, and that the referendum is about the people.
There are many sober and sound persons who are disenchanted with the political governance in the nation over the years and are yearning and willing to embrace a reasonable alternative under a new constitution; therefore NDC now has the opportunity to earn the admiration and authentication on this quest.
It is even more imperative, incumbent and expected of the NDC to detail its version for the reform project, when considering that it regards itself as the government in waiting and that as forming the past government, it held sessions in December 2010 to complete the project, having the initiative of the drafting of a new constitution by the late Grenadian law professor Simeon Randy McIntosh.
One may however argue on the appreciation and commitment by the NDC for the reform(s), when considering that although it has been recently disclosed that there was an agreement of NDC and NNP before the last general elections in 2013 that the reform(s) will be pursued whichever party wins, there was no leading item of constitution reform in the manifesto of the NDC but there was in the manifesto of the NNP.
The reform project has not gotten the seriousness and sincerity of the NNP government, and this can also be accounted for by comparing the organized preparations and investments had for the constitution reform exercise in SVG. The prime minister of SVG, Dr Ralph Gonsalves, spent a lot of money over seven years for the most extensive political education programme ever done, on the exercise with the proposed reforms been nationalist and democratic.
Gonsalves mentioned his attentiveness to the exercise when delivering the second annual March 13th lecture in recognition of the 1979 Grenada Revolution, on 14th March 2016 in Grenada. It will be wise for the NDC to explore the substance and the structure used for the reform exercise in SVG, as well as the new constitution voted on, with the good intent to adopt the positive aspects.
Moreover, the NDC needs to study the "final drafts of all provisions for referendum submitted" to Grenada's government by the CRAC, including the Amendment Bills, so as to gather the good lessons from the process and machinery therein and to apply the lessons accordingly.
The passing of the Vote No resolution should not come as a surprise for anyone, especially to persons who have being analyzing the developing stories on the status and trend of the reform project. In fact, the NDC had on different occasions and by different means expressed much disappointments and dissatisfactions with the manner of conducting the project.
As a responsible political opposition, the NDC has endorsed the scope and purpose of the project and participated in the launch and work of the CRAC; and it had established expectations and parameters in going forward, advocated and facilitated the views of the Grenadian people, and had agitated concerns on the pertinent issues of the project.
The agitations resulted in the powers-that-be holding a so-called national consultation on the constitution reform in October 2014, at which event the desires and determinations of the people drew the attention and support of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
The irony in holding the national consultation became evident with its outcome; the outcome brings into the limelight the disdain for the people and the deceit with the reform project, by the powers-that-be. Particularly, none of the expressed wishes of the people, including the profound issues from the previous constitutional reviews, appears as a proposal for the referendum, and unfortunately the UNDP could be seen as aiding and abetting an anti-democratic enterprise. Review the articles "Grenada Constitutional Reform: Democracy and finance" and "Grenada Constitutional Reform: United Nations position".
It is instructive to note that UNDP's Project Document on Support To Referendum On Constitutional Reform In Grenada (search same on the Internet to learn) stresses that experience in the Caribbean has shown that it is difficult to get people to vote "yes" to constitutional change and political disagreement can undermine a yes vote. "If the NDC continues to oppose the process, this could risk a successful referendum vote as experience shows that bipartisanship is crucial to success in such circumstances. Every effort needs to be made to encourage such bipartisanship."
With this statement, NDC could easily become complacent by thinking that it commands the direction and outcome of the referendum. However, the NDC must realize that the asking for a Vote No would be taken to mean a call for the failure of the referendum and thus the party ought to be prepared for any eventuality with backlashes.
Political backlash is inevitable, as this is inherent in partisan political culture and which is coupled with the ignorance of the population on independent national issues such as relates to the constitution. If the constitutional referendum takes place before the next general elections, then the NDC will face robust campaigning by the NNP with a Vote Yes.
The advantages of the NNP over the NDC would be manifested by its non-restriction to the ethics of the UNDP, by its control of the Parliament, by its use of the amenities and resources of the state, by its exposure to the electoral instruments, and by rhetoric and propaganda fanfares.
If the referendum fails, or if the referendum does not take place as is now hopeful to be by July 2016, and that the NDC wins the next elections, then the NNP will tend to reciprocate a Vote No in order to stall any effort by the NDC for the reform(s); the NNP would hold the position that it did not had the cooperation from the NDC on the referendum when it was in government.
The biggest warning for the NDC is for the party not to be perturbed and distracted on its Vote No resolution. Indeed, the greatest temptation may originate from the strong but uninformed appeal of prime minister Gonsalves for Grenadians not to oppose the piecemeal measures of constitutional reform, letting that be part of the process of unity and reconciliation and to be a leader for the region where his SVG failed. The referendum must be historic, in the spirit of the Revolution for a Peoples Constitution.
NDC is prone to political pitfalls, even political suicide. Particularly, without being able to differentiate No Vote from Vote No, many persons will heed the resolution by abstaining from the referendum polls.

A Turkish prosecutor has filed an indictment against the CIA and FBI for allegedly having active involvement in last month's failed coup attempt against Islamist President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and using Pennsylvania-based cleric Fethullah Gülen to ramp up opposition to Erdogan in the Turkish military.
"The CIA and FBI provided training in several subjects to the cadre raised in the culture centers belonging to the Gülen movement," the indictment, filed in the Edirne Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, reads, according to the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet. "This [failed coup] attempt aimed to weaken the state with all its institutions by getting rid of the government completely. Those in the Gülen movement who work in the judicial and security institutions and who received the aforementioned training, took on this task and moved into action."
The newspaper reports do not specify the evidence linking the coup perpetrators to either Gülen or the CIA or FBI. Turkish newspapers favorable to Erdogan have alleged numerous ties between the U.S. government and Gülen, however, insisting that the U.S. government should extradite him for the crime of orchestrating the coup operation. Gülen runs a group of Islamic charter schools in the United States, which have been raided by the FBI or alleged misappropriation of public funds.
A who's who of news agencies run by states hostile to America have dutifully republished the news of the indictment, including Iran's Fars News, Russia Today, and China's Xinhua. While the Russian government spent most of 2016 accusing Erdogan of purchasing millions of dollars in crude oil from the Islamic State, the Kremlin appears to be making efforts to thaw the relationship with Turkey, and Erdogan is set to meet with Vladimir Putin in Russia on August 9.
The indictment is not the first such accusation from an Erdogan-friendly source. The newspaper Yeni Safak, which has long established a reputation for having a bias towards Erdogan's Islamist Justice and Development Party (AKP), accused retired U.S. Army General J.F. Campbell of personally planning the coup against Erdogan. Campbell denied the accusation, noting that he was too busy sharing a beer with Geraldo Rivera on the night of the coup to have had anything to do with it.
Beyond the United States, Erdogan's government has made an effort to place the blame on Gülen. Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim publicly denounced the "despicable" coup attempt and accused Gülen personally, on the same day that American authorities confirmed that Turkey had sent Washington Gülen's dossier and non-publicly available evidence tying Gülen to the coup, as well as a formal extradition request.
Media outlets favorable to Erdogan – the only kind remaining in Turkey following the coup attempt – also published "evidence" against Gülen: alleged confessions from military coup plotters that they were members of the Gülenist Terror Organization (FETÖ), as Turkish officials refer to the Gülen group.
In a statement before the coup attempt was thwarted, alleged plotters stated their reason for acting as a need "to reinstall the constitutional order, democracy, human rights and freedoms, to ensure that the rule of law once again reigns in the country, for the law and order to be reinstated."
Erdogan's party won a landslide reelection in November, after having its majority diminished significantly in July 2015. Erdogan rapidly called for new elections following this defeat, which were marked by multiple reports of irregularities at the polls, the raiding of a major anti-Erdogan media conglomerate, and reports of hundreds of physical attacks on minority party members. In addition, two major terrorist attacks – one in the border town of Suruç and one in the capital, Ankara – targeted the nation's Kurdish minority, who had rallied behind the People's Democratic Party (HDP), a rival to the AKP.

My friend Lisa gave me this fabulous recipe that her grandmother had made. I have now made this every week since she gave it to me for my daughter and her family. This recipe reminds me of the flavors you get with chicken or shrimp oreganata- very tasty and satisfying. When Lisa gave me the recipe, she told me that she had discovered that when her daughter was really little, she actually liked eating broccoli because, I guess it was disguised by delicious flavors. So it turned out that my grandson Noah also loved the broccoli this way. Unfortunately, I couldn't convince my son Danny to give it a try- that's how much he hates broccoli anything. But what makes this such a great recipe is that it is very substantial, and you don't need as much of your main course, because this is just so amazing and very filling too! Thanks Lisa for sharing this recipe of your grandma's with me!
As much broccoli or asparagus as you wish (I usually buy about 2 pounds of organic)
Italian seasoned bread crumbs
shredded Romano cheese
garlic powder, black pepper, kosher salt, dried parsley flakes
extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
Cut about 1 inch off the bottoms of the broccoli or asparagus, rinse with cold water to wash. Boil a large pot of water. Then drop broccoli into boiling water, and boil for 5 minutes. Dump into collander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking.
Put oven on broil, and put oven rack about 8 inches from the heat element. Dump broccoli on sheet pan covered with foil in single layer. Sprinkle with kosher salt, garlic powder, black pepper. Sprinkle bread crumbs heavily over all. Then sprinkle parsley flakes over all. Then sprinkle shredded Romano generously over all. Give another sprinkling of black pepper, and drizzle with olive oil. Place under the broiler for about 5 -7 minutes till nicely browned, but not burned.

Indian government has taken a good step in jobs data collection and presentation of jobs. Union government has came up with a T.C.A. Anant panel which will work in making jobs sector more transparent.
Here are some main points related to the committee.
The job data collection and calculation committee will be headed by former chief statistician of India T.C.A. Anant.
This is one of the important measure taken by government which will make data related to jobs more transparent to public.
Labour Bureau is responsible for conducting two surveys related to employment that are
1) Annual Employment-Unemployment Survey (EUS)
2) Quarterly Employment Survey (QES)
The Labour Bureau till now has conducted five such Employment-Unemployment surveys whose reports have been released by the department.
The sixth annual Employment-Unemployment Survey (2016-17) work is under process till now. Its data entry validation work is going on. It will be released very soon once completed. As per estimates sixth annual Employment-Unemployment Survey (2016-17) will be released in September month this year.
On the other hand Quarterly Employment Survey (new series) is an enterprise based survey. The motive of this survey is to measure relative change in employment situation over successive quarters for the establishments having 10 or more workers. There have been some limitation that are associated with Quarterly Employment Survey. One is that it only takes into account those establishments where more than 10 workers work.

Poll: 40% of Fans Blame NFL's Ratings Drop on National Anthem Protests

MUST-SEE: Benjamin Hall Takes an Exclusive Look Inside ISIS' Secret Tunnels
The NFL's ratings are down 29 percent this year and many fans attribute the drop to players protesting the national anthem.
According to a Yahoo Sports and YouGov poll, 40 percent of NFL fans said they are watching less football because players are following Colin Kaepernick's lead and taking a knee during the pre-game rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Kaepernick, the San Francisco 49ers current starting quarterback, started his demonstration against police brutality during the preseason.
Former NFL long snapper and Green Beret Nate Boyer and former NFL wide receiver Randall Hill joined Brian Kilmeade on "Fox & Friends" this morning to react.
Boyer said there's a possibility that the protests are partly to blame for the ratings decline, but there are other factors, such as the presidential election, the retirement of iconic player Peyton Manning and Tom Brady's four game suspension.
"It could be a number of things," Hill agreed. "I'm not going to blame that on Colin Kaepernick taking a knee. There's a lot of things going on here in the U.S."
In particular, Hill pointed to the "soap opera" race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.
Boyer said he believes that Kaepernick and other players have a right to protest in their own way, and NFL fans also have the right to protest by not watching football.
"That's what's great about our country. You can agree, you can disagree. And no one cuts your head off."

For months, investors, analysts and economists have been laser-focused on the timing of interest-rate hikes. Markets rise and fall each time Federal Reserve policy makers offer some hint that the first rate hike in nearly a decade is increasingly imminent.
Continue Reading Below
Yet, despite all the attention on the central bank's looming decision, how rates will move higher is actually far more important than when they move higher.
For anyone who remains uncertain about how rates will move higher, let's clear up any confusion: It will be very gradually.
In other words, once the Fed gives the word that rates will be lifted from their current near-zero range, where they've been held since December of 2008, the announcement of subsequent hikes won't happen until central bankers are certain the first increase is having its desired impact and that the U.S. economy can stand on its own without Fed-initiated stimulus.
If there is one word that describes the Janet-Yellen led group of influential central bankers, it's cautious. That sentiment is likely to dominate again this week when the Federal Open Market Committee meets Tuesday and Wednesday.
A policy statement announcing any new initiatives will be released at 2 p.m. ET Wednesday followed at 2:30 p.m. ET by a press conference with Yellen.
Dovish Caution
The Fed is widely expected to remove the word 'patient' from Wednesday's policy statement. In keeping with its cautious approach, the Fed added the word in December in order to reassure markets rates would stay low well beyond the end of quantitative easing, the Fed's monthly bond purchasing program that was phased out in October.
At the time, adding the word 'patient' came as a surprise to many who believed the Fed was poised to start preparing markets for the inevitable rate hike. Dovish caution took precedence instead, however, and the Fed said it could remain patient as it mulled a decision on the timing and debated the various methods for raising rates. Look for that same level of dovish cautiousness to permeate this week's statement even as the Fed removes the word 'patient' and lifts one of the final barriers to a rate hike.
Then look for an even higher level of dovish caution once the first rate hike is initiated – probably in June or July, as many analysts expect -- and the Fed is seeking evidence that the higher borrowing rate is having the desired impact of helping lift inflation to a healthier level and curbing asset bubbles.
Fed officials have hardly been shy about their caution. And while the FOMC has been deeply divided over the timing of rate hikes, the same can't be said for the trajectory once rates start moving higher. The two sides agree on a gradual approach.
In an interview earlier this year, San Francisco Federal Reserve President John Williams told Reuters a gradual approach toward lifting rates is needed because it will allow for flexibility as the Fed determines whether the U.S. economy still requires stimulus going forward.
"My own view is that the pace of tightening would be actually pretty gradual over the next few years once we start liftoff," Williams said.
Even hawkish members of the FOMC who have been arguing that a rate hike is long overdue agree that rates should move higher gradually once the Fed pulls the trigger on a liftoff.
Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher, an ardent inflation hawk and long-time critic of the Fed's unprecedented stimulus policies, said earlier this month: "The idea that we can substitute a steeper future funds-rate path for an early liftoff seems risky to me. I would rather the FOMC raise rates early and gradually than late and steeply."
'Gradual' to Replace 'Patient'
The concerns are viable on either side of the rate hike argument, those who've preached patience and those eager to lift rates.
When the Fed does raise rates it will make it more expensive to borrow money, a dynamic that will surely ripple through the broader economy. Higher borrowing costs will undoubtedly cut into consumer spending on such big ticket purchases as homes and cars that generally require loans. In addition, businesses will find it more expensive to borrow for capital expenditures and expansion. That could cut into hiring.
On the other hand, inflation hawks say keeping rates low for too long leaves the economy vulnerable to runaway inflation, even though the opposite has been true for the past two years as inflation has run well-below the Fed's 2% target rate. Hawks like Fisher argue that the rapidly tightening job market will eventually lift wages, which could quickly turn the tables on inflation if prices are allowed to soar out of control.
For its part, the Fed is loath to do anything that would crimp the ongoing economic recovery. But at the same time, central bankers are eager to steer U.S. monetary policy back in the direction of 'normalcy,' or one devoid of the stimulus initiated in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis.
It's a delicate balance, to say the least.
One thing is certain. Once the word 'patient' is removed from the lexicon that permeates discussions concerning interest rate hikes expect that word to be replaced with 'gradual.'

The proceeds will all go to Alison to help ease the financial burden. It's awesome that there are over 5 pages of donated items, and 160 items have already been sold! I'm so proud to be part of such a wonderful crafty community, and I am donating a pen (pictured) from my shop, Scribble Scrabble Beaded Pens. If you have an item to donate, contact Renee Garner at wonderlandretreat [at] gmail [dot] com. I'm off to the shop to set what cute goodies I can buy to help out :)

Antucura Cherie Sparkling Rose
Winemaker Notes
Critical AcclaimAll Vintages
Our winery mingles with the terroir, the ancient viticultural traditions and the new vinification technologies. Born to be the matrix of super premium and ultra premium wines, our winery counts with top quality controls and extra care. Through a special gravity flow system the grapes are gently pressed and therefore wines are nurtured in unparalleled conditions.
By far the largest and best-known winemaking province in Argentina, Mendoza is responsible for over 70% of the country's enological output. Set in the eastern foothills of the Andes Mountains, the climate is dry and continental, presenting relatively few challenges for viticulturists during the growing season. Mendoza, divided into several distinctive sub-regions, including Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley, is the source of some of the country's finest wines.
For many wine lovers, Mendoza is practically synonymous with Malbec. Originally a Bordelaise variety brought to Argentina by the French in the mid-1800s, here it found success and renown that it never knew in its homeland where a finicky climate gives mixed results. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot and Pinot Noir are all widely planted here as well (and sometimes even blended with each other or Malbec). Mendoza's main white varieties include Chardonnay, Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
Equal parts festive and food-friendly, sparkling wine is beloved for its lively bubbles and appealing aesthetics. Though it is often thought of as something to be reserved for celebrations, sparkling wine can be enjoyed on any occasion—and might just make the regular ones feel a bit more special.
Sparkling wine is made throughout the world, but can only be called "Champagne" if it comes from the Champagne region of France. Other regions have their own specialties, like Prosecco in Italy and Cava in Spain. Sweet or dry, white or rosé (or even red!), lightly fizzy or fully sparkling, there is a style of bubbly wine to suit every palate.
The bubbles in sparkling wine are formed when the base wine undergoes a secondary fermentation, trapping carbon dioxide inside the bottle or fermentation vessel. Champagne, Cava and many other sparkling wines (particularly in the New World) are made using the "traditional method," in which the second fermentation takes place inside the bottle. With this method, spent yeast cells remain in contact with the wine during bottle aging, giving it a creamy mouthful and toasted bread or brioche qualities. For Prosecco, the carbonation process occurs in a stainless steel tank to preserve the fresh fruity and floral aromas preferred for this style of wine.

After all the commotion of the day before, I wasn't expecting very much for Valentines'. My man giving me a pebble (a shiny one) to signify his love (ya know, like penguins), was more than anything I can ask for. So after having lunch with my mum and uncles, I was quite surprised that he has booked a table for dinner. But, before that, we had some time to kill. We decided to make our way down to The Cats Museum, located at Purvis Street. Finding a parking lot was quite a hassle, but it was really worth it.
Dance like no tomorrow
Too fast too furious
Last Sunday's class turned out to be one of the better ones. I had tons of corrections and praises by my dance teacher (which feels awesome and you know it). I even managed to keep up with the petite allegro cum piroutte exercise, which even my teacher was pleasantly surprised! I had one of those 'good turn' days, if you know what I mean. My pirouttes and fouttes were all in control. Left side was being gracious too.
If you saw my previous dance post, where I asked about cracked toe nails, well, I'm still battling with it. It has now gotten to a pointe (pun fully intended), whereby I can feel it (the toe nail, duh!) moving every time I go up en pointe. I know it's a bit gross, my apologies, but I seriously know not what to do with it. It is a ticking time bomb on my toe.
Anyway, we were told to do posse turns en pointe, and for some unknown reason, I tend to spin out of control! Not exactly falling down, out of control per se, but more of the speed of my turns. I can start out slow, but as I kept turning, I just keep going faster and faster even though I wanted to slow down so bad. It came to a pointe where I am actually scared for my life and actually heave a sigh of relief when I end! So if anyone experienced the same thing, please let me know how you rectified this. It happens on both my left and right side, even though my left is somewhat wobbly, thus, fearing for my life.
Signing off~
Aquarium Overhaul
I had a bout of itchy green fingers again, and browsing through Pinterest, looking at the lush aquariums some people have done, isn't exactly helping. Since last week was a long weekend in Singapore as Polling Day falls on a Friday (which I hope, all my fellow Singaporeans got whoever they voted for), I decided to give in, because what better to get rid of temptation?
Broken toe nail =(
Its been a while since I blogged, but my exams and assignments are finally over (at last!), so I figured, why not?
I went for ballet class last weekend, and I'm not sure if its because I missed a couple of lessons prior (coz exams), but for some unknown reason, pointework seems to be really hard for me this week.
We did a short barre, so centre was about 1.5 hours. After doing a couple of demi pointes in the centre (the burrrnnn), we moved on to pirouttes en dedan from fourth, when something really weird happened. I couldn't go up on my left feet. There was a nagging pain on my left big toe, and no matter how I braced myself for the turn, I just couldn't get up, and ended up doing it in demi pointe.
I'm sorry it's been so long since I've posted. I have work piled up to my neck! Although tuition classes has stalled for the term holidays, I have been busy dealing with my never-ending school assignments, and also starting an online shop (reading contracts saps most of my energy)!
My dance teacher, then has to break her ankle. Before I know, I'm receiving a call from her, requesting me to help her with classes, just to demo. Well, if its just to demonstrate a few dance moves to a couple of kids, why not? How wrong was I.
Perfect Pointe Shoe Quest Continues….
I am so excited! Over the weekend, I went for my first ever, pointe shoe fitting! Although I have been pointe work for years, I haven't had the chance to get fitted to the point(e) (pun much intended) of choosing 9-10 pairs at once. As my current studio sells pointe shoes as well, previously Bloches and Grishkos, now Wear Moi (which personally, I feel, looks really bulky) I usually just get fitted by my teacher and buy whatever she recommends to me.
Soubresaut en whaaat?
Soubresaut en pointe. Is it possible? Apparently so.
How about changement en pointe? Not as bad as I thought.
So my teacher decided that we should all be spending more class time doing pointe work. So after a quick barre, what better way to do petit allegro than doing it on pointe?

Is Instagram Ruining Our Self Esteem?
With over 600 million Instagram users and 95 million photos and videos being shared every day, Instagram is pretty hard to ignore.
I've had Instagram for around three years. I remember one of my first Instagram posts was a Clown Fish at Torquay Aquarium.
However, the Instagram set up is rather different nowadays. Rather than sharing a random photo, many users aim to share a selection of their best pictures displaying their feed to be a showcase of their 'happy' life.
The reason why I use happy in inverted commas is that this is as far from the truth as possible. Instagram has been declared as the worst social media for mental health and I can't say that I am surprised.
Part of this is to do with Instagram scoring negatively for self-identity and self-expression. Cosmopolitan wrote an article earlier this year speaking of how Instagram ruins self-esteem as influencers curate the "perfect virtual self".
However, for myself and others according to a number of surveys, Instagram has created a new self-confidence killer, the 'fear of missing out' otherwise more commonly known as FOMO.
The #StatusOfMind report explained: "Seeing friends constantly on holiday or enjoying nights out can make young people feel like they are missing out while others enjoy life."
And that is exactly how I felt.
Whilst, I had an amazing summer, travelling to many countries and unconsciously uploading photos day by day to social media, when the season ended and reality kicked in, that's when I noticed FOMO starting.
Whether it be my friends posting pictures of their wild university nights or a blogger sharing images of the press event they attended, I was there scrolling on my phone working two jobs and studying; feeling like I was missing out.
It's an odd feeling because I am extremely happy with my decisions, I like my jobs and my course, but suddenly I became insecure.
This has led me to where I am today. I have removed Instagram from my main dock and put it in a folder on my phone that I rarely use, this means that when I have a free minute I am not clicking on Instagram and complacently scrolling through.
What is your opinion on Instagram?
