Groningen is a city with a rich history, which is evident from the numerous beautiful buildings. The warehouses, the city hall, the Martini Tower and Martini Church and the main railway station are just a minor selection of Groningen's historical heritage.
Martini church and tower
The most important Groningen monument is the Martini tower which has overlooked the city for over five hundred years. This fourth highest tower of the Netherlands can be climbed until the third gallery. Afterwards, see the Martini church, the largest church in Groningen. Originating from approximately 1230, it includes frescos from the 13th century, and one of the largest Baroque organs in northwest Europe. Ask about the church's opening hours prior to your visit.
Main railway station
The Groningen main railway station has more on offer besides getting on or off a train. This is the "cathedral of the winged wheel"', the entrance gate for the city as well as an extremely important monument. When standing in the main hall, imagine yourself a traveller from the 19th century: admire shelters for various classes, leaded windows, beautifully decorated ceilings, and a very particular six metre-high wrought iron streetlight in the centre.
Prinsenhof and Prinsentuin
During recent years, Radio/TV Noord was accommodated in the Prinsenhof, but they moved a short while ago. Originally used as a monastery, a suitable function for this complex is now being looked for. Behind the Prinsenhof is the Prinsenhoftuin, which includes a rose garden and herb garden, and a footpath covered with foliage (berceau). The garden, surrounded by a wall, is one of the best examples of a Renaissance garden in the Netherlands.
The Prinsenhoftuin garden is opened from early April to half-October from 10 am to sunset. The tearoom is open during fine weather.
Goudkantoor (gold office)
Originally a provincial tax office, this building was built in 1635. With its lavishly decorated façades, it was the last Renaissance style building to be constructed in Groningen. It was given the name of Goudkantoor in the 19th century when the "bureau of security for gold and silver" was located here, and it is now a café/restaurant.
The Groningen synagogue is located in the Folkingestraat, which was the Groningen Jewish quarter until the Second World War. The synagogue was designed by Amsterdam architect Tjeerd Kuiper and Groningen architect IJ. van der Veen. The cruciform building was consecrated in 1906 and has a distinctive Moorish style.

I had just left my sister-in-law's house and was driving home thinking about the encouraging and godly conversation we had during Girls' Night. As my thoughts drifted, I began thinking of another family situation which has been a difficult one.
I decided long ago that when a person or a situation comes into my mind like that, I would stop thinking to pray right then for whatever it was. Therefore when this other family situation came raging into my thoughts, threatening to take away the joy of friendship I had been praising God for moments earlier, I began praying.
My prayers quickly went from, "I don't know what to do, God," to "PLEASE SAVE THEM!"
My prayer became one of fervent urgency. I cried aloud to my God, with boldness and strength and pleaded with Him to show His glory and power in their lives.
Then I realized that it was the first time I had prayed about the situation with such passion. As I thought on that, I became convicted that while I prayed about it before, and while I always tried to follow Christ's leading and pursue righteousness, in my heart I had doubted that He would actually work.
I'm over at Raising Up Stones today sharing a personal story of how God convicted me in my unbelief and how He brought about restoration of my faith for this particular situation. Please head over to Cassandra's blog and see all that God taught me when I was finally honest & raw before Him.

Every woman on earth has fantasized about some explicit sexual fantasy that she may or may not have been too ashamed to talk about. Whether it's your girlfriend or your wife, this top ten list is sure to touch on a forbidden fantasy of her own.
Although most women prefer to leave their fantasies at that, others have a list that they are slowly but surely accomplishing. So the next time your woman seems to be wandering off in thought, who knows, she may be cruising around in the mystical world of sexual fantasy.
So do you think you can guess what some of them are? This list took a lot of time to comprise (and a few bottles of red wine as well), and the women's names have been changed to protect their privacy.
So the next time you're engaging in pillow talk with your lady of the night, her fantasy may be more common than you might think.
drum roll please …
Keep in mind that fantasies are a normal and healthy part of our sexuality. They are either taken from past experiences or may even be entirely imaginary. Sometimes these fantasies are taboo, or socially unacceptable, therefore they are only available through fantasy. But as you'll figure out today, the modern woman marvels at sex and sexuality.
10. Strangers in the night
Many women relish the idea of meeting up with a mystery man and going to some no-name motel with him for a wild night of uninhibited sex. Sometimes women feel like the only people they can truly let loose with are strangers simply because they won't be judged. And who cares anyway? They'll probably never see the beautiful stranger again.
Francine divulged her perspective, "The idea of sharing a passionate night with a stranger and behaving like a sexual predator doesn't just sound inviting; it sounds delicious. And leaving after we're done without even knowing each other's names is the best part."
9. The more the merrier
Group sex was a popular one among the ladies. "The freedom of being nude in front of a bunch of people who are equally exposed, allowing different men and women to touch and penetrate your body simultaneously is incredibly erotic."
Now don't mistakenly assume that all women want to engage in group intercourse, and gather up all your buddies for your next date (unless, of course, she asks you to).
8. Who's your daddy?
If there's one thing that women are dying to do, it's dominate a man like never before. The creative ideas that flowed from this topic were quite interesting, to say the least. They included:
- spanking him
- ordering him to perform certain sexual acts
- making him beg for what he wants
- having him suck on their stiletto heels or some other phallic object
7. Lay me out on display
In today's world of confident women, I was not surprised to learn that many of them fantasize about having an audience whilst engaging in sexual acts with a partner. I guess the idea of knowing that others are getting excited by their "performance" provides them with a feeling of empowerment.
"Imagining that people are watching me while I'm taking my partner's manhood into my mouth gives me a feeling of satisfaction because it makes me feel sexier." Perhaps these women feel as though they're participating in an erotic movie… speaking abstractly, of course.
6. Sexually ravaged
Although most women agreed that they fantasize about having a master, their role in the scenario differed. Whereas some women said that they would surrender to their master's demands, others opposed the idea and said that they would resist and disobey his commands.
Vicky said, "Having him instruct me on how to lick and suck his member or at what pace to ride him will make me orgasm faster than I can say Yes, Master." On the other hand, Denise interrupted saying, "It depends. In some fantasies I obey, yet in others I fight him and refuse to do anything he says until he finally ties me to the bed and calms me with his rhythmic penetration."
Whew, is it hot in here, or is it just me?

The cat burglar known as "The Snowman" is on the loose again. Several sightings have been reported in the north east quarter of the Gaslight District. Snow covered yards that previously did not have children's creations were spotted with a snowman that appeared to move positions. Three houses were reported broken into and two additional houses show signs of tampering on the locks. Carrot shreds were found caught in the key holes. Coal dust was trampled on the welcome mats. If you spot any suspicious snowmen, snow women, snow people or snow animals please report such activity to your local neighborhood watch as well as your local DMPD station.
The only known description of "The Snowman" is that he is about 5'10″, plump, heaviest on the bottom, white, and wears a black top hat.

Canada's IPO Market Sputters to Life in April
By Ben Dummett
After a tough start this year, Canada's initial public offering market is showing signs of life, with three companies in different sectors launching new issues this month.
That's an encouraging sign, given the relative paucity of activity so far in 2013. Still, the real test for the strength of the Canadian IPO market comes next month, when these new issues are expected to price–a far-from-certain prospect amid heightened investor fears over global economic growth.
Canada's financial-services sector is certainly hoping they succeed. New listings are an important revenue source for the country's flagship Toronto Stock Exchange, which is operated by TMX Group. New listings also generate substantial fees for the investment bankers and lawyers who take companies public, and offer fresh investment ideas for investors.
If these issues are successful, additional IPOs will likely follow. If they fail, the opposite is more likely.
So far in April, BRP Inc., maker of Canada's iconic Ski-Doos and Sea-Doos, energy exploration company Oryx Petroleum Corp., and Silver Ridge Power Inc., an operator of solar-power generation plants, have launched new issues and are aiming to raise a total of about 775 million Canadian dollars ($754.9 million). That's almost double the C$422 million raised by the four new IPOs on Canadian exchanges in the first quarter.

This feature is to revisit the classic Chinese slow-fire soup (老火汤) of Chinese peanut soup. I had earlier featured this soup which was cooked with only the 'skeletal' ingredients needed i.e. peanuts, pork and dried cuttlefish here which was also delicious but today's soup tasted better (to me), more soothing and layered with more complex and satisfying flavours. Armed with advice from my parents, I added Chinese smoked ham, pig's tail and pickled mustard - I never thought that pickled mustard would work in this soup but it worked beautifully and I think added an extra 'layer' of soothingness to the soup. If I am not mistaken, I think peanut soup has heat-relieving properties (下火) as well.
With all the flavourful ingredients combined, I did not need to add salt to flavour the soup at all. As always, with slow-fire soups, one just needs to be patient - add required ingredients into your pot and let it slowly simmer for at least 5 hours. Slow-fire soups are of Cantonese origin and is a staple in most Cantonese homes as apart from being tasty, slow-fire soups are highly touted for its' many nutritional benefits. I can totally have just slow-fire soups for an entire meal - so if you're not in the mood to make a full home-cooked dinner, you can just boil one of these and have an extremely wholesome and delicious meal at home. The cooked spareribs in the soup also taste delicious dipped in some soy sauce with chilli peppers.
The ultimate Chinese comfort food in my books, 老火汤!
1 packet of Chinese peanuts (found in most Asian grocery stores), soaked overnight
10 inches worth of spareribs (We got the neck portion)
1 pig's tail, cleaned and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 head of pickled mustard, soaked for 1 hour
4 inches worth of Chinese smoked ham
3 small dried cuttlefish, rinsed
12 cups of water
Cilantro/ green onions for garnish (optional)
Firstly, blanch the pork and the tail briefly to get rid of impurities. Place all the ingredients in a large soup pot (I like to use the black claypots) with the water, then bring to a boil. Cover loosely then bring heat down to just simmer the soup and let simmer for at least 5 hours. Do a taste test and add salt if you desire. Garnish with some green onions and cilantro if desired.

The pickled mustard is an interesting addition. It helps to cut through the fatness maybe?

I remember growing up, eating this at old-school Chinese restaurants. They'd always bring you soup as part of your meal, and this was often the one that was offered. I always saved the peanuts for last to enjoy, too. Thanks for bringing back those memories for me.

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has said the party would win the 2019 elections without the support of Ogun state governor Ibikunle Amosun and his Imo state counterpart, Rochas Okorocha.
Both governors are at loggerheads with Mr Oshiomole over the outcome of the party's governorship primary election in their respective state.
According to him, the governors are poor students of their own history who had forgotten they lost elections before winning on the platform of APC.
He said, "We know there are people across the divide who are fighting back. There is a gang up by those who are used to sucking the system without adding any value but Nigerians will not allow that."
On the election, the party chairman boasted that the 2019 election would be a smooth sail for President Muhammadu Buhari and APC because ethnic and religious sentiments that characterised the 2015 election lost by former president Goodluck Jonathan would have no play this time around.
"The two candidates are from the North and they are both Muslims. People are now going to look at character. Nobody has ever said Buhari is a thief. But who said the other person (Atiku) is a thief? it was his boss (Obasanjo).
"When you are working with me and I said you are a thief, God will punish me if I support you. And when you are confused because your supply line has been chopped off, you now turned around to support the same person. That God that you called with your name to punish you if you support the person is about to go to work. And He will go to work in February and HE will punish him thoroughly and the person he is supporting, in favour of Nigeria."
He alleged that the popularity of APC in Ogun and Imo had soared despite the alleged anti-party activities of their governors.
Oshiomhole said, "Those who think our political future is tied to them; they are poor students of their own political history. Some of these people who talk as if they are invincible, they have forgotten that they have run elections in the past and lost until they abandoned their parties and joined us. So if they return back, history will repeat itself.
"In Imo state today, APC will win more votes. My focus is on ordinary Imo voters because on that day, the governor would have only one vote, his son-in-law would have only one vote while his Commissioner for Happiness would have only one vote.
"But artisans, traders, teachers and workers whose salaries are not being paid have the same weight of vote and they are excited about the renewed possibility of a new government coming with fresh ideas free of all the encumbrances of the present system. So in Imo I'm very confident.
"Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is from Ogun State. The state is one of the most enlightened States in Nigeria. They have a huge history; they are not in a political kingdom headed by one person.
"If they were looking for true reconciliation, they wouldn't have done what they did (defection of aides). That is not how democracy works. Nigeria must grow beyond this syndrome 'I'm the governor, I will decide.' You have only one vote. With due respect, I was once a governor. Overall APC is much stronger now."
He, however, stated that sanction for those involved with anti-party lies with the electorate, just as he said the efforts of the Peace and Reconciliation Committee were already yielding fruits in some places while those with negotiable grievances were being sorted out.
He again promoted the APC presidential candidate, stating that he had the best credentials to lead the country to progress, economic recovery, peace and stability.

The Bull Hog can be configured for a wide range of flow and pressure to suit any high flow skid steer. The minimum flow requirement for a skid steer mounted Bull Hog is 28 gpm, with a maximum flow of 45 gpm. System pressure should be a minimum of 3,000 psi and maximum of 6,000 psi. For excavator and purpose built tractors we require a data sheet to properly configure the Bull Hog.
The mulcher uses the flow and pressure created from the carrier. Common causes that affect the head, if the carrier is producing adequate pressure and flow, are:
Contact your local dealer if these suggestions do not resolve your issue.
The QR (Quick Response) code is a readable barcode that allows users to scan with a common application downloaded to a mobile phone. On the Fecon head, service parts specific to your head can be read and displayed on your mobile phone.
The standard double carbide tools will last for approximately 300-500 hours. This time will vary in different applications, especially in high horsepower tractors or when the application requires frequent ground engagement. If you notice the carbide is missing, replace the tool immediately. The body of the tool will wear out quickly in this situation and can subject the tool holder to damage.
The only daily maintenance we recommend is to grease the rotor bearings. These require at least 1 pump of grease for every hour you run the machine, and they should be serviced every 4 hours. Generally a customer will do 4 pumps of grease in the morning and run for 4 hours before stopping to grease the rotor bearings again. Inspect the tools for tightness and belts for proper tension daily.
The standard double carbide tools on an HDT rotor should be torqued to 590 ft/lbs. The FGT tools should be torqued to 500 ft/lbs. When torqueing the bolts, make sure the threads are lubricated with oil.
The v- belt in a skid steer mounted Bull Hog should deflect approximately 5/16" with 40 pounds of force. The polychain cog belt in the same Bull Hog should deflect about 1/16" with 40 pounds of force.
Any machine that runs a mulcher is required to have at least a ½" thick Lexan or polycarbonate windshield. We recommend a metal mesh guard in addition to the polycarbonate window.
The Bull Hog can be moved easily from one piece of equipment to another with very minor changes.

if you are ordering a new Bull Hog the mulcher will be configured to match your tractor, but you will need to provide pressures and flow for verification.

[Listen] M.I.A. Creates Weird Social Site And Leaks Another Untitled Demo
Interesting enough M.I.A. has purchased another web domain but unlike her others this one is a bit more social. Her new site Facefacefacebook allows you to use your webcam to shoot a picture of whatever (preferably your face) and adds the YouTube Player buttons much like the cover art for M.I.A.'s last album /\/\/\Y/\. Once completed the site allows you to share it with your friends and family via Twitter or Facebook and along with that gets added to the gallery of faces on the site.
When you are scrolling through the gallery, yet another demo leaked by Maya begins to play in the background. For those of you who think this concept is weird enough (and i don't blame you) and want to hear the new tune, you can check it out in the player below.

- Page 1 Samsung X520 – 15.6in CULV Laptop Review
- Page 2 Samsung X520 Review
- Page 3 Samsung X520 Review
- Page 4 Feature Table Review
- Page 5 Application & Gaming Performance Review
- Page 6 Battery Performance Review
Connections on the X520 include an Ethernet port of the non-Gigabit variety, VGA and HDMI video outputs plus headphone and microphone jacks, all along the left edge. Unusually, all of its three USB ports are located on the right edge, next to the optical drive. At the front, is an SDHC and MMC memory card reader.
Beating at the heart of the X520 is an Intel CULV CPU, specifically the SU7300 running at 1.3GHz. Don't let the low clock speed fool you; this processor is significantly faster than any of the Atom CPUs you'll find in most netbooks and will let you run efficiently-encoded Full HD video without problems (as long as nothing is running in the background).
This is backed up by 4GB of DDR3 RAM, which is pretty much standard for higher-end laptops these days and more than the installed 32-bit Windows 7 knows what to do with. With most systems these days coming with 64-bit versions Samsung's choice here may seem a little odd, but in terms of application compatibility a 32-bit OS does still offer a few advantages.
For storage, the 5,400rpm hard drive is very generous at 500GB, which is pretty much the most you can expect on a single-drive laptop these days. To round things off the X520 is equipped with Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11n), the fastest wireless standard available, and Bluetooth 2.1 plus EDR.
Inevitably, graphics consist of Intel's integrated GMA4500M HD solution, meaning great battery life but rubbish gaming and 3D performance. As an example, this chip gets you an unplayable average of 13.8fps in TrackMania Nations Forever at medium detail and the screen's native 1,366 x 768 resolution.
Speaking of the screen, despite the reflective coating we all love to hate, the X520's 15.6in example is decent. As usual with anything but professional-grade laptop screens (like that found on the RGB-LED-backlit Dell Studio XPS), viewing angles suffer from severe contrast shift and greyscales lose distinction at both ends of the scale, meaning you may miss subtle dark and light detailing in photos, films and games.
However, aside from this there's little reason for complaint. Banding is so minimal as to be unnoticeable and backlight bleed is absent altogether. Colours are reasonable and thanks to decent sharpness, even small fonts are readable without strain.
The X520's 1.5W SRS-speakers, on the other hand, are only mediocre. Even at their relatively low maximum volume, distortion creeps in quickly, marring reproduction that's already somewhat lacking in clarity. It must be said that turning on the SRS processing does improve things somewhat, especially where perceived bass and depth are concerned. Nonetheless, their performance is average at best, leaving us with yet another laptop where external speakers or headphones are recommended.

Quarterly Review 1511
Modeling the Liquidity Effect of a Money Shock
Winter 1991
There is widespread agreement that a surprise increase in an economy's money supply drives the nominal interest rate down and economic activity up, at least in the short run. This is understood as reflecting the dominance of the liquidity effect of a money shock over an opposing force, the anticipated inflation effect. This paper illustrates why standard general equilibrium models have trouble replicating the dominant liquidity effect. It also studies several factors which have the potential to improve the performance of these models.

HTC Student Volunteers Ready Society for Spring Opening
Our thanks to the team of National Honor Society students and their advisors from Hunter Tannersville Central School who volunteered to help the society get ready to open the campus for the season. A great bunch of people. We wish them continued success at HT, and to those who are about to graduate, our best wishes as they begin a new phase in their lives and education.
Around Hunter
In the late 1700s, the land that was to become the Town of Hunter was part of a vast land grant, the Hardenburgh Patent. The wildness and poor suitability of the area for agriculture delayed settlement of the area until the early 1800s. According to Beers' History of Greene County (1884) the only settlers in the Hunter area at that time were Tory refugees from Putnam County and some people who fled New England in the wake of Daniel Shay's rebellion. The two major resources that brought people into Hunter in the first half of the 19th century were the abundant hemlock trees and the physical beauty of the area.
The Greene County historian in 1927, Jessie V.V. Vedder wrote: " The scenic wealth of the Catskills lies within the borders of the Town of Hunter. It has been more richly endowed in this respect than any other town in Greene County." Three cloves with their streams, ravines and cliffs are located in Hunter, along with impressive vistas of the Hudson Valley.
Town of Hunter historian, Dede Thorpe, and president to the Mountain Top Historical Society, Cyndi LaPierre, used vintage images from the MTHS archives and other sources to share the 200 year story of the area Around Hunter, highlighting the resourcefulness of local people earning a living in a wild and beautiful part of New York State.
Around Hunter was released on September 28, 2015 and had a premiere at the Mountain Top Historical Society on October 4, 2015 with a presentation by the authors and book signing. A second event with presentation and signing is scheduled for the Catskill Mountain Foundation Bookstore on November 14, 2015, from 1:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m. Come in to meet the authors and pick up your signed copy of the latest local history book.
You can purchase your copy of Around Hunter by stopping in at the MTHS Visitors' Center in Haines Falls on Monday, Wednesday or Friday from 1:00 p.m. until 4:00 p.m.. You can also send a check to the MTHS, PO Box 263, Haines Falls, NY 12436 and they can send you a copy. The cost per book, including tax, is $23.75. Please add $3.00 for shipping and handling.

As the demand for rail travel continues and the rail network expands the industry needs maintenance solutions from rail contractors who promote best practice, reduce trackside working times and increase health and safety rates. JPCS provides innovative maintenance and refurbishment solutions for existing railway infrastructure and new rail schemes through:
- Ensuring there is a clear understanding of the project from the outset, with particular attention to programming and delivery
- Continually innovating to provide the very best solutions. This has been repeatedly proven through our approach to project management, as well as the Groundscrew and microsurfacing products
- Offering a complete service, from our first meeting to the handover of a finished project
- Delivering the detail from concept through to construction and completion.
"The management team was very proactive in all aspects of the scheme, always prepared to go the extra mile to ensure a good end product was achieved."
Alan Loftus, Network Rail

I went for a jog around 7:30pm. Instead of taking my usual route up and down 13th Street, I headed West into a bright, brassy sunset. Despite trying to shake things up, I wound up taking another well worn route toward Meridian Hill Park. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a side street I didn't recognize. So I made a quick right turn down Fuller Street.
Immediately past a busy cross street, the noise dropped, the air grew calm, and the breeze became a whisper. I had stumbled into one of those sanctuaries in the city.
For the next 10 minutes I meandered through hushed, leafy streets, winding up on the back side of the Zoo. At one point, I was completely alone in the damp shadow of the trees. I could hear my breath and the rhythm of my feet hitting the pavement. The air smelled wet and dark. For a few brief minutes, I felt a solitude within. It was short lived though. At the bottom of the hill I had nowhere to go but to slog uphill, reaching the top short of breath and back to the real world of 16th Street traffic.
I don't know about you, but that rare combination of outer and inner aloneness is mysterious. Even stranger, sometimes in the very middle of the city the horizon seems to shrink down to my very thoughts and breath. In the midst of a crowd, I feel absolutely alone. Not lonely, but alone. At times I reflect. At other times I feel disconnected and discomforted. Sometimes I pray. I'm not sure what or how I pray, or even if it's prayer at all. But I try to be open in that moment, present to what feels like a deeper reality that is as big as the sky and as intimate as the well within, as vast as the ragtag mix of people at the Columbia Heights Target and as singular as my own heart beat.
It was just a jog. But for a few moments, at least, it was also something more.

Los Angeles County in California is anchored for organization as the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale Metropolitan the finish of 2014, over 177,000 job listings for active for the location. State hospitals, such as these for mentally ill patients, HMOs, federal hospitals such as those for veterans of the armed forces, and private hospitals are amongst those that most usually employ recreation therapists. Therapists in community recreation departments may possibly concentrate more on building programs to assist their town's residents. Actual listings for Arizona include 77,000+ jobs at the end of 2010, with the the most openings in the following positions.Listings partially match official projections offered above. Employment of recreation therapists is anticipated to grow due to the fact of anticipated expansion of long-term care, physical and psychiatric rehabilitation, and solutions for the disabled. Southern California was settled originally by Indigenous Peoples that included the Chumash and Tongva Nations , all with very exciting cultures.
Education and Encounter specifications at this level consist of a master's degree in recreational therapy, outdoor recreation or physical education or a bachelor's degree in recreational therapy, outside recreation or physical education and a single year of experience in recreational therapy or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
If you want to program enjoyable activities without having worrying about the therapeutic" element, you could turn out to be a recreation worker for a summer camp, a school, a daycare facility, or for a wide variety of other private and public organizations. Even though some coursework related to recreational therapy can be completed on the internet, really hardly ever can one particular earn a degree in this field completely online. Recreational therapy is not a rapidly-increasing occupation simply because it's enjoyable and folks do not genuinely want to leave it. Plus, this is not the biggest of medical professions (only 1000 further jobs in this field are expected to be gained in between 2006 and 2016.
Ecomonic recovery is evident in South Carolina, with jobs increasing steady from July 2010 by way of July 2013. Recreational therapists may possibly instruct sufferers in relaxation methods, stretching and limbering workouts, correct body mechanics for participation in recreation activities, and pacing and energy-conservation methods. Miami – Fort Lauderdale – Pompano Beach Metro Region covers 3 counties with thousands of jobs accessible in high-paying careers. Lumbering, tourism, cattle ranching and recreation comprise the economy, with a retail purchasing complicated added for additional development.

Community-primarily based therapeutic recreation specialists may possibly operate in park and recreation departments, specific education applications for college districts, or programs for older adults and men and women with disabilities (for instance, those in assisted living, adult care and substance abuse rehabilitation centers). A bachelor's degree connected to recreational therapy is generally essential to operate as a recreational therapist. Assistant) I wonder what Wisconsin's phys therapy licensing needs are…now exactly where did I put that Google…. aha! Rehabilitation, residence healthcare, and transitional programs will supply extra jobs. A HubPages Forum Post asked about the effect that 40{f3bd2bf897b9a1ee6eee5160e4625fea8e53e05057879fd1f365843beadff6e5} of American physicians closing their offices will have on American Healthcare and Jobs soon after January 2013. Specialized coursework in recreational therapy normally should happen in an on-campus or perform atmosphere.

FC: I.N.S.P.E.C.T. By Zach Holcomb
1: I.N.S.P.E.C.T. tells about many different things that happened in early America.
2: Ideas One major idea in early U.S. history was westward expansion. It consisted of people that were moving into the LouisianaTerritory. During this expansion many American Indians were thrown from their land and were forced to leave on the "Trail of Tears."
3: Factories were also created to make new things for people, like clothes and shoes. Highways were created to provide easier travel for people.
4: Natural/ Geographic The land west of the Appalachian Mountains was virtually uncharted territory. | The land was very different from what they were used to. There was a desert, and another mountain chain, the Rocky Mountains.
5: They also found the five Great Lakes, Superior, Erie, Ontario, Michigan, and Huron. | After the people there had lived in the area for a while they decided they needed to build the Erie canal so they could move the ships inland to sell and receive goods.
6: Social Most of the people back then didn't have very much of a social life because when they moved onto the new land they usually moved too far away from other people to ever see very many of them. When they did see other people it was when they were buying, selling, and trading goods amongst each other.
7: Andrew Jackson and Thomas Jefferson were both important presidents during this time.
8: Political In the early 1800's President Jefferson agreed to buy the Louisiana Territory from Paris. | Louisiana was a part of the continent that hadn't yet been mapped out by the U.S. | Thomas Jefferson set up a party to go and map out the new land.
9: Then when Andrew Jackson became president, he promised that he would remove the Native Americans from their land, and thats exactly what he did. Even though the Supreme Court ruled against it he told the people to get the Cherokee off the land.
10: Economic Not very many people had a lot of money because they left their old lives behind to start a new life on the new land. | Some people moved west to mine and pan for gold in the rivers.
11: Some people got very lucky and got rich on their findings, but some people never found any gold and never got anything.
12: Cultural There were many different cultures, but one big one at the time was the Native American culture.
13: The Cherokee Indians were forcefully driven off of their land by the white people.
14: Technological/Scientific | There were many new inventions, like the cotton gin and the Clermont Steamboat.
15: Factories were also starting to become larger and more convenient to use than individual people.
16: In 1803 President Thomas Jefferson purchased the Louisiana Territory from France. | He asked his private secretary Mariwether Lewis to explore the new land. Lewis asked his friend William Clark to go on the journey with him.
17: On their expedition they discovered new plants and animals. The prairie dog is one of them.
18: Thinking Like a Historian Cause And Effect | 1.) The cause was there were too many people moving west and there wasn't enough mapped land. | Cherokee Indian Removal | 2.)Andrew Jackson and the people that were moving in made the change happen. | 3.) The Native Americans did not support the change because they were getting kicked off of the only land they have ever lived on.
19: 4.)The removal of Cherokee Indians was not intended to hurt them, only to get them off of the land. | 5.) It change the Cherokee people's lives forever. It changed the community a lot because all of the people were leaving forever. The world didn't change very much in this event.
20: Change And Continuity | 1.) A lot has changed since then. Now we can't kick people off of their land just because we want it. | 2.) The stuff that is the same is the Native Americans live on reservations that were chose a long time ago for them by the white people.
21: 3.) The white people have benefited because we received the land over the time from our ancestors. | 4.) The Native Americans have not benefited from this because they still live on the land that they were forced to live on.
22: Using The Past | 1.) The past is what defines our present. If the removal of the Native Americans wouldn't have happened our country wouldn't be the same as it is today. | 2.) The past is similar because there are always people that want more power than others.
23: 3.) The past is different because the laws are different now and people have more rights. | 4.) We can learn that sometimes we might have to do bad things now to make the future better.
24: Through Their Eyes | 1.) They viewed their world as an open and happy place with plenty of land to share. | 2.) The Native Americans thought there was enough land to go around so they didn't want to leave. | 3.) The people needed to know how to make the right decisions and not hurt others.
25: Turning Points | 1.) It made us realize that there are better and more humane ways to take care of things. | 2.) The Native Americans were changed when they were forced to leave because they had to change their ways and some of their beliefs.

The in basket: When I was going to Olympic College back in the 1960s, a friend who drove would start his car and go back in the house on frosty mornings until the windows were clear. He managed not to get the car stolen.
PEMCO Insurance has been polling Northwest residents about things, and doing what my friend did way back then was a recent subject.
"About half (53 percent) of respondents who live in Eastern Washington deal with frost, ice or snow on their windshield each day in colder months," a company news release said. "In the moderate temperatures on the west side of the state, about two-thirds (60 percent) of drivers tend to an icy windshield at least once per week.
"But icy windshields present more than a tedious winter task – they also can be invitations to car thieves looking for unattended, idling cars left running by drivers waiting for them to warm up," the company said.
"According to PEMCO's poll, about two-thirds of respondents (63 percent) who wake up to icy windshields opt to crank their car's heater before using a scraper to clear their windshield of ice or frost or snow.
"You've probably seen 'puffers' – people who start their cars and then go back inside while the heater warms up, and that's against the law in many areas," the company said. "Even if you leave your car unattended for just a few minutes, that's plenty of time for a thief to break in and drive away," said Jon Osterberg, PEMCO Insurance spokesperson.
"In fact, Washington state law requires drivers to stop their car's engine, lock the ignition, remove the keys and set the brake before leaving a vehicle unattended.
"Car theft isn't the only risk posed by frosty windshields," it continued. "The poll finds that about a quarter (24 percent) of residents in Portland and slightly fewer in Washington (17 percent) don't always finish scraping their windshields clear of ice or snow. What's more, an equal number are unaware that a frosty windshield could get them pulled over."
I asked if locking your car with a second set of keys and leaving it running changed the picture. I also asked my State Patrol contact if fog or ice on the other windows can be cause for a citation.
The out basket: Not at all, Osterberg told me. It still would be illegal and professional car thieves aren't deterred much by locked doors. Some professional thieves cruise neighborhoods looking for an unoccupied car running and would have the ability to enter the car quickly and steal it, locked or not, he said.
State Trooper Russ Winger had this to say about my second question:
"You need to be able see out of the vehicle in order to drive
safely. That would include front, rear and side windows. It would
be a basic violation of driving with due care. It is just plain
dangerous to yourself and other motorists to drive with obscured
"You can be stopped for this and potentially issued a citation.
"Taking a few minutes to scrape ice, snow or defrost the windows so you can see properly is not to much to expect from any motorist," Russ said. "If a driver causes an accident due to this lack of common sense and basic effort, one could make a case for a negligent driving citation.

Sixth RECOMB Satellite Workshop on Massively Parallel Sequencing (RECOMB-SEQ)
Massively parallel sequencing continually pushes the limits of computational biology. The advent of the latest, ultra-high throughput sequencing technology drives data storage requirements to the extreme. Rapidly growing read length, paired with novel sequencing error characteristics, gives rise to novel algorithmic and statistical challenges. Massively parallel sequencing is becoming routinely applied to ever more areas of application, such as the exploration of 3-D genome organization and the dynamics of translation. This workshop brings together researchers from computer science, mathematics, statistics and the life sciences to discuss emerging frontiers in next generation sequencing. The emphasis of all contributed work will be on applying statistical and algorithmic approaches to improve sequence data management, analysis and interpretation.
- Discovery and genotyping of genomic variants, including SNPs, indels and structural variants
- Local and de novo sequence assembly, haplotype/ploidy-aware sequence assembly
- RNA sequencing, including the analysis of RNA expression and novel transcript assembly
- Methods for emerging sequencing technologies, such as single-cell or single molecule real time sequencing
- New approaches to data storage management, such as new data index structure
- Algorithms for construction and analysis of pangenomes
- Sequencing approaches for the exploration of 3D genome organization

Today's challenge was a fairly easy one for me to answer because not too long ago I had a one-of-a-kind experience.
I recently was at an event called the Steel Rail Sessions. The event took place mostly on a train. The train was full of people from my community and you could almost feel the friendships forming around you. There were moments where I was able to feel the cool wind blow by as the train rattled along. It was the entire experience of this event that made me feel the most alive.
Forming friendships makes me feel alive. Next time I have to create something, I'll think of the feeling I get when I find a friend.

Kansas is one state where the people few and the land is plentiful. One would think the siting and building of transmission lines would not be that difficult in a low-population state, but this is not the case. And because the economy of the state of Kansas is healthy and growing, new transmission and upgrades are needed.
On the legislative side, Kansas Rep. Carl Holmes, chairman of the Kansas House Energy & Utilities Committee, is championing solutions. Holmes believes that a more robust transmission grid will aid in the growth of Kansas businesses, will further stimulate the Kansas economy in both the rural and urban areas of the state, and will foster the growth of the renewable energy industry in the state. This legislator from Liberal, Kansas, working in conjunction with Rep. Tom Sloan of Lawrence have led their peers in the Kansas Legislature to create an environment that encourages investment in transmission.
Holmes also serves as chairman of the Kansas Electric Transmission Authority (KETA), an entity created under Kansas House Bill 2263 and signed into law in 2005. The purpose of KETA is to further ensure reliable operation of the electric transmission system while seeking to diversify and expand the state's economy. KETA is also charged with facilitating the consumption of the Kansas energy by increasing the capacity of the state's electric transmission infrastructure. KETA is a tool that can be used to meet the renewable energy goals set forth recently by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. In her "State of the State" speech, the governor said that new transmission lines are needed to move wind energy from western Kansas to other markets in an effort to produce 10% of the state's electricity from wind by 2010 and 20% from wind by 2020.
In an effort to spur transmission upgrades and new construction, the state has already put tax incentives in place for companies wishing to invest in transmission, even offering preapproval options for routing lines. Legislation has also been passed that allows electric utilities to separate their transmission rates out of rate base, which is regulated by the Kansas Corporation Commission. Under this structure, the transmission rates or tariffs are regulated and set by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
The Southwest Power Pool (SPP) also recognizes the need for new transmission. The SPP oversees the operation and reliability of the transmission grid for 4.5 million customers in eight states and is in the process of implementing an energy imbalance services market. This market will allow participants to better utilize economic generation while maintaining system reliability. The SPP also identifies system limitations, develops transmission upgrade plans and tracks project progress to ensure timely completion of system reinforcements. In this vein, the SPP requests that additional transmission be built to meet the needs of the states it serves.
The SPP has identified approximately US$260 million of Kansas-based projects that are required for reliability purposes in the next 10 years including a major 345-kV project in western Kansas from Spearville to Mooreland (near Woodward, Oklahoma, U.S.).
Further, the SPP has identified approximately $175 million of projects from north-central Kansas to central Oklahoma that can provide significant economic dispatch benefits to Kansas and the SPP region. Beyond that, an additional $500 to $600 million of projects are in various stages of development or study that will likely be needed in the future to facilitate new generation including renewables in Kansas.
In a traditional regulated utility, the transmission business unit has to compete with generation and distribution business units for capital and maintenance dollars. Success in obtaining funding is never assured, but typically requires an ironclad business case combined with internal lobbying.
Carl Huslig has faced funding issues like these in his previous role as vice president of transmission operations at Aquila (Kansas City, Missouri, U.S.). But in a career move last year, Huslig left this large regulated utility to head ITC Great Plains, a recently formed subsidiary of ITC Holdings Corp.
For those unfamiliar with ITC, this is a publicly traded company that owns and operates 95% of the transmission assets in the state of Michigan. ITC had been looking to expand and, through discussion with the FERC and the U.S. Department of Energy, became aware of the need for transmission and the favorable political environment for transmission in Kansas. Huslig found that his vision for the future of transmission coincided with that of CEO Joe Welch at ITC Holdings. ITC Great Plains was established in July 2006. I decided to take a trip to visit Huslig and the rest of his team at the Topeka headquarters. I posed a few questions to Huslig:
- What is driving your interest in transmission in Kansas?
"Of course, the political environment is favorable for transmission in Kansas. Also, the need is there. The FERC has announced that some Kansas utilities don't pass the 'Market Power Test,' which in turn means that additional transmission would enable wholesale purchasers access to lower-cost generation."
- What is on the drawing board for ITC Great Plains?
"We intend to build and operate the new transmission projects as specified by the SPP. Longer term, we will continue to build, own and operate portions of the transmission superhighway needed to meet the transmission needs of the state of Kansas and the Great Plains region."
- What are your first steps?
"On Oct. 13, 2006, we filed our application to become a utility in the state with the Kansas Corporation Commission. We have also been approved for membership in the SPP. Furthermore, we continue to share our vision of what an independent transmission company can bring to the state and its rate payers."
- How do you intend to build out your utility?
"Our parent company ITC Holdings already has partnership agreements with Black & Veatch, Asplundh, UtiliCon Solutions and InfraSource. We have vendor alliance partnerships in place with Prysmian, Mitsubishi, PennSummit Tubular, Falcon Steel, Maclean Power Systems and Southern States. We intend to work through our partners as we move forward."
- Will you work with existing transmission-owning entities?
"Absolutely. The transmission grid is already integrated. In order for ITC Great Plains to upgrade or construct new projects, we will need to work closely with existing transmission owners. We are an innovative organization by design and are looking for creative partnership opportunities with existing transmission owners."
- How much business are you chasing?
"Using SPP forecasts and models, we have identified $1 billion of transmission business in Kansas, whether the growth is reliability driven, economic-opportunity driven (resolving bottlenecks) or in connecting generation to the grid."
Huslig has key members of his team in place. Alan Myers serves as vice president of technical services and Kimberly Gencur is vice president of government affairs and community relations.

Anthony Cottrell-Photographer
"I went to one of this mans 'Masterclass' seminars. He is creepy, arrogant and completely insensitive to the fact I had a very young baby who I needed with me for feeding. His lack of compassion towards my baby (who was not crying or being disruptive) was humiliating. I would not recommend anyone use him for pregnancy or baby photography as he does not have the temperament or patience for working with children."

This is a page of my daughter Sarah, playing with her Bratz dolls. I can remember vividly doing the same thing at her age :) I used a sketch for this layout that I found over at Sketch Savvy, by Susan Stringfellow. I intend to use several other of her sketches too. They are FAB! If you are in need of inspiration head on over to her blog and you will be scrapping in no time! The samples are incredible as well. I used 2 page Sketch #6 for this layout. Thanks for looking and have a fantastic day :)
I need to work on my 2 page layout photo taking skills.

Oh Dawn, this turned out soooo darn cute! Love the green scallops and that flower journaling spot!ReplyDelete
Thanks Susan, for your kind comment and the sketch!ReplyDelete
Really a great LO Dawn.I like the sketch and colors you chose.ReplyDelete
Beautiful LO, Dawn!ReplyDelete
My daughter was looking over my shoulder at the computer and thought your title "Bratz" was referring to your daughters. She was quite indignant over it until I explained. :)
LOL. I probably should have included the journaling. It says how seeing her play with her Bratz dolls reminds me of playing with Barbie Dolls at her age. Too funny Shelly!ReplyDelete

Denver: Morning Glory
Can someone please tell me what on earth happened to A&E? I am sure I am not the first person to point out that that channel has neither A nor E in any sense of the word. I'm a girl who loves cable TV, and I only get to watch it in hotels, so I was all set to take advantage of the televisionistic bonanza my first night in Denver. I am also, for the record, a girl who does not get grossed out easily or lose her appetite if someone mentions poop or vomit or maggots during dinner. But that's all changed now that I've been subject to back-to-back episodes of Intervention, one of which included graphic imagery of cutting, plus a truly horrifying documentary called something like, Crank: America's Sweetheart, in which I was shown looooooong drawn-out close-ups of people shooting up. I thought I liked shows like this, because I love a tale of a person hitting rock bottom then climbing his or her way back from the abyss, but A&E, you made me sick. I mean like Tums sick.
In Denver I discovered just why people get up early. I had to meet my media escort at 5:40am, which meant I had to be up by 4:30am, which meant I technically could have worked the 2-hour time difference to my advantage and gotten a full night's sleep anyway, but I had terrible insomnia. Just the idea of getting up at 4:30, and the terrible lonely fear I get before meeting a new media escort and shaking hands and being "on" in a strange city, I was up up up all night. Luckily I had Hillary Carlip's funny memoir, Queen of the Oddballs, to keep me company. Usually if I'm reading an entertaining book, I fall asleep more quickly than I want to, reading with one eye open, trying to finish a chapter. Not so in Denver. I read most of the book. PS I like Hillary's memoir, even though she doesn't hit rock bottom and have to claw her way back from the abyss. She talks a lot about loving the limelight and being a little girl who wanted a lot of attention and I can relate to the latter and am working on the former.
First stop, a radio station where there was a foozball (sp?) table in the lobby, reminding me of ye olde Internet glory days when toys in the office meant small salaries and big stock options.
Then off to breakfast at a Panera bread outpost, which doesn't exist in New York that I know, but I'm pleased to see carbs ruling the roost so elegantly in a chain restaurant. Then I did two live TV shows. At one, I met both Susan Isaacs and a very talky magician who were also guests on the show. The magician was there representing (you guessed it) The Mile-High Magicians and was there to give his opinion on The Prestige, which I think they were giving away on DVD. I ended up spending a lot of time hanging out with the magician and seeing a lot of card tricks. I also learned that the magician was formerly a member of the bomb squad and "nearly got blown up" at Columbine. I ask you.
I'd like it to be known that I conducted all this business and stopped by a Barnes & Noble to sign some books, oh and also dropped off and picked up a jacket at a tailor all before noon. This is what life is like for people who get up early. Aha! But I bet they don't get in half the collage-making or wee-hour blogging that I do while prowling around after midnight.
Later, I had a fantastic time with the very cool women of the Denver Women's Press Club, where there was wine and we talked about my favorite topic lately, the prevalence second-wave feminists complaining that their daughters and granddaughters are politically uninspired and are squandering the triumphs the women's movement. One of the women had worked at Time as a fact-checker under Henry Luce. There were three generations of women there, mostly journalists, all brilliant and open and articulate. I loved it.
Later, at the super-amazing Tattered Cover bookstore, I spied on a man of about 50 reading my book for at least an hour. My shrewd media escort, Sharon, ran interference while I surreptitiously took his picture. Unfortunately, his bald pate is cut off, but you get the idea. Exactly what I keep telling everyone: The Girl's Guide to Absolutely Everything: Not Just for Girls.

Nestled near the heart of London, Kensington is home to the aptly named Kensington Gardens and Kensington Palace, the Royale Albert Hall, and the Serpentine Gallery. For a first-time London visitor, these are the standard fares; for the bolder, worldlier traveler, however—true Londoners either by birth or in heart—there is another side of Kensington waiting to be explored.
We Aren't In Kensington Anymore (Are We?)
Whether you are looking for something out of the ordinary for your own enjoyment or you are hoping to dazzle on a date, Kensington hosts a menagerie of attractions not found in the standard travel guide.
1. Unexpected Cuisine at The Churchill Arms
Okay, so this one isn't exactly a well-kept secret. The Churchill Arms is the pub in Kensington. Actually…it's pretty much the pub in London. This historic spot (built in 1750!) is famous enough that Winston Churchill's own grandparents were regulars. It has such flare, though, that it deserves to be on this list. Situated on a corner lot, its well-groomed exterior is decorated with an abundance of flowers and a classic dark wood façade. The thing that sets this ale house and eatery apart from the rest is the fact that The Churchill Arms—drum roll, please!—is also home to an incredible Thai Restaurant! Surprise twist! Break away from traditional pub fare with some noodles, rice, and curry.
2. Brash Dramas at The Royale Court Theater
The rest of the world can keep their Hamlets, Sound of Musics, Nutcrackers, and kin. At The Royale Court Theatre, you'll find productions that push the envelope so far that it might just fall right off the edge. Dedicated to their writers, The Royale Court Theater showcases novices and masters alike. Their aim is to give center stage to shows on the forefront of innovation. In the past The Royale Court Theater has been home to such shows as "The Art of Dying" by Nick Payne, "Get Santa" by Anthony Neilson, and "Bang Bang Bang" by Stella Feehily.
3. Tee Time at Urban Golf: Kensington National
Golfing isn't just for dad's generation anymore; Urban Golf transforms the sport into a casual-dress, cocktail-bar-nearby, simulated experience. With no actual balls to lose, no sand in your shoes, and a coaching suite to help you master your swing, this is the best big-city answer to golf (and maybe even better than the real thing). The clubhouse is decorated with Victorian flair, making for a comfortable, relaxing, swanky afternoon.
4. Easy Listening at Piano Kensington
Elegant, low-key (please excuse the pun), and entertaining, piano bars are making their way into London, and Piano Kensington is hitting a high note. Serving great food and drinks, amusement and music abound in this upbeat venue. The stereotypical piano bar plays out as a campy gimmick; owner Bazz Norton skirted that pigeonhole entirely, effectively crafting an inviting, all-encompassing atmosphere. Everyone who visits Piano Kensington agrees that it's worth staying for dinner and the show.
5. Breathtaking Delights at The Roof Gardens
Hiding at the pinnacle of Kensington is London's Eden: The Roof Gardens. Dining, dancing, daydreaming—whatever your pleasure, The Roof Gardens have something to offer. Free to visit or available to rent if you're interested in splurging on a private event, these luscious green spaces are gorgeous, romantic, suave venues, trimmed and tailored to create an elite experience that is literally above all of the rest.

What is the Hive Lotto?
Hive Lotto is an organisation which supports local causes in Tonbridge and the surrounding area. It works as a normal lottery does, but instead of the organisation profiting, the money goes to your community.
For every pound donated, 50 pence goes directly to the local activity that has been sponsored. Another part of the Hive Lotto is that a percentage of the money goes to donate to all Tonbridge charities involved, which means that the money is spread throughout the community who need it.
There's something in it for anyone feeling generous! By participating in the lottery, you can win cash prizes, which can be up to £25,000.
Why donate to Tonbridge Grammar School?
The ethos of our school is rooted in community service. Throughout the lifetime of each TGS student, there are a series of opportunities to become involved in the community. These programmes vary between the local community in Tonbridge, all the way through to the global community, where some of our students visit Malawi and enrich the community there.
The money donated from the Hive Lotto directly goes to our local community outreach programmes. The three key aspects that our school focuses on are the elderly, the young people of our community, and people with learning difficulties. Half of all the money you could give goes directly to funding these projects.
"I've seen first-hand the difference that the money makes. By the funding that TGS have, I have been able to be a part of helping so many different communities. I have been involved in a number of outreach projects, by everything from working with children and teaching them African drumming, and helping out in classrooms. For me, volunteering has been one of the most exciting and interesting parts of my school life at TGS." – Katie, Year 12

Thank you for helping our outreach work
If you have any questions or concerns about the Hive Lotto please contact them via email at firstname.lastname@example.com

5 Cocktails From Around the World To Help You Survive the U.S. Election
Now, before the hate comments start about how we all need to care about the election and go vote and go vote SOBER…I totally agree with that. Vote. Please, please if you can vote in America, go vote. Research the candidates up and down the ballot, not just the presidential candidates. And then, go make an informed vote for the candidates you want to see in office.
But when you're not at the polls and not researching candidates, I think we all need a bit of a drink this go round. The presidential election is completely insane this year, the media circus is worse than ever, and I for one could use a good stiff drink now again to calm my nerves, and a few while I watch the election night coverage.
All the recipes make one cocktail so it's easy to adjust for more servings.
New York Sour
Let's start with a cocktail that's from the USA so we can remember that we love this country. The New York Sour is my favorite cocktail. It's a whiskey sour with red wine floated on top.
Here's what you need:
2 oz. whiskey or bourbon
1 oz. simple syrup
1 oz. lemon juice
0.5 oz. red wine
Shake up the whiskey, simple syrup, and lemon juice. Pour it over ice. Gently pour red wine on top over the back of a spoon so it floats on the top and looks really pretty. Drink it as is or stir the whole thing together to drink it.
The Mojito is a refreshing Cuban cocktail. The highlights are rum (of course) and mint.
1.5 oz. rum
3 mint sprigs
1.5 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoon sugar
club soda
Muddle the mint in the bottom of a cocktail shaker. Add all ingredients except club soda. Shake. Pour into a highball glass (with or without ice). Fill the rest of the glass with club soda.
Campari and Soda
Campari is an Italian grapefruit liqueur that is very bitter. If you're feeling bitter about the elections, this kind of bitterness might help you feel a little better.
1.5 oz. Campari
3 oz. soda water
orange slices
Mix the Campari and soda. Serve on the rocks with orange slices as garnish.
Singapore Sling
If you're looking to get plastered, then the Singapore Sling is your friend. It was actually invented in Singapore at the Raffles Hotel.
1.5 oz. gin
0.5 oz. cherry brandy
0.25 oz. triple sec
0.25 oz. benedictine
4 oz. pineapple juice
0.5 oz. lime juice
0.25 oz grenadine
dash bitters
Shake it all up together. Pour over ice in a large glass. It's a big cocktail.
Kir Royale
Simple. French. Sparkling. This cocktail is ideal if you've got something to celebrate.
6 oz. champagne
0.5 oz. creme de cassis
Pour both ingredients into a champagne flute. Stir lightly.
What cocktail will you be drinking on election night in the U.S.?

thoroughly obsessed with....lactation cookies
A cookie is a cookie. But, a lactation cookie has the added benefit of claiming to help with one's milk supply, therefore you are permitted to over indulge, no? I am really proud to have made it all the way to 6 months exclusively nursing Henry. With going back to work when he was a wee 8 weeks old, I did not have much confidence in being able to maintain my supply through pumping. Thankfully, I have been able to. There have been a number of days or weeks when I felt that my supply was going down or Henry's appetite was peaking and these continue to concern me. My next goal is 9 months and then 1 year. I feel that by setting these shorter nursing goals I relieve a lot of the pressure on my body to produce what it must. I have a little stash in the freezer that provides added comfort toward making my 1 year goal, but I also know how quickly that stash can be depleted! Henry has recently started to add solids to his diet and while these do not act as meal replacement, they do help him get through the work day on what I am able to pump from the previous day and then I frantically fill in the gaps with nursing at home and still at least once in the early morning hours. Having just come off a two week vacation (where my pump retired itself to the closet) I feel as though my supply has changed. I know my body needs to get accustomed to our old work routine and I need to be patient but I also need something to help calm my racing, frantic mind. That is where the cookies come in. If you Google how to increase your breast milk supply a few suggestions are commonly shared: Pump more. check. Nurse as often as you can. check. Drink mother's milk tea. Yuck, but check. Try Lactation cookies. Mmmmm check! I have made these cookies a few times and really love them. They may be helping, they may not. But, they help give me peace of mind and that is priceless. it also helps that I think they are delicious! I have been using this recipe (although interestingly they come out a little different each time). I know in the picture they look a bit like dog biscuits, but truly they taste much better than that. Trust me!
- 1 cup plain flour, add 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup low fat butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
- 1 egg
- 2-3 tablespoons of water
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1-2 tablespoons of brewers yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 & 1/2 cups steel cut oats
- Chocolate chips
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar then add the egg and vanilla. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flaxseed and water, let sit for a few minutes before adding to mix.
- Add the dry ingredients (apart from the oats and your additional ingredients) and mix well again.
- Finally, stir in the oats and your chocolate chips.
- Bake for around 10-12 minutes at 350

There's a theme among my favorite Warriors. They've used the obstacles in their lives as platforms for change. Like my friend Kendall, who fought her illness by concentrating on other people's needs. Click here for her awesome TEDx talk. Matthew is another great example. He wears glasses and can't imagine his life without them. He expresses his gratitude by showing a deep compassion for those are not as fortunate. Matthew asked me for a few tips on getting started on turning this compassion into action. And in a few short months I am blown away by what he has accomplished. I have never seen a Warrior work so fast and so effectively. Please support him and share his story.
