Most companies would agree that enterprise data is complex:
With this landscape, it's not surprising that business leaders are desperate for changes. Marketing, operations, HR, and executive teams are turning to business intelligence and analytics platforms at an increasing rate. In fact, The market for business analytics is growing rapidly and is expected to reach $71.1 billion by 2022 growing at a CAGR of 6.9% from 2015 to 2022, according to Stratistics MRC. The promise that business analytics makes is to slice through the complexity. It offers a platform to access meaningful, actionable data from reports and dashboards. The benefits of successfully implementing a business intelligence program are obvious. Those benefits drive the objectives that most business leaders point to for their analytics initiatives:
Despite the benefits offered by BI and the growth of the market, adoption rates of BI tools are decreasing. Gartner estimates that employees of companies that have implemented a BI platform are using the tools at only a rate of about 30%, while G2 Crowd estimates are slightly more optimistic at 51%. Rob Light, an analyst at G2 Crowd shares a few recommendations for increasing user adoption on the blog of our BI partner Sisense:
(For more advice on how to increase the adoption of BI within your organization, watch this informative webinar from Sisense.)
A recent survey from the Business Application Research Center revealed the top objectives of BI leaders for 2019, many of which might help solve the paradox of user adoption. The obvious candidates of data visualization and self-service BI are represented near the top of responses. Yet, so were 3 that might be somewhat surprising:

How To Use php Embody On Your Godaddy Hosted Net Web site
One of many frequent complaints that I get from readers is, "I can not get the php embody perform to work on my Godaddy hosted website online and their help division isn't any assist". Let's face it, getting technical assist from the "help division" of your webhosting firm can someday go away a complete lot to be desired https://www.createemailaccounts.net/godaddy-email-login-workspace
To be honest, a lot of the main internet hosting corporations can and do reply most questions promptly and precisely. However, there are occasions, in terms of technical questions, resembling "the php perform", effectively, thats one other matter fully. Regardless that they declare that it really works nice on their Linux platform, they only do not appear to know, or no less than the individual you contacted, how or why it really works. However, I digress, so I am going to get on with it earlier than you pull out the remainder of your hair.
The very first thing that it's essential to do is take away this line from the web page you'll use
Take away this out of your web page: ?xml model="1.zero" encoding="iso-8859-1″? or you'll get a parsing error and the php embody perform won't work.
Not all internet pages will comprise this assertion so your web page could not have this line. Yipeee! Now transfer on.

That implies that the information ought to finish with .php as an alternative of .html or .txt and so forth.
And now, the magic bullet
Now it's essential to create a .htaccess file. Open notepad and paste this directive into the web page
AddHandler x-httpd-php .html .htm .cgi .php
save the file as .htaccess and shut notepad. The file ought to look precisely like this .htaccess
Add the phpinclude folder and the .htaccess file to the basis listing of your website online. Be sure that each information are in the identical listing. It is best to now be good to go!

What Occurs When Your DNS Cache is Infected
Within each company's IT framework, there are generally one or even more domain name web servers depending on the company's dimension. Because each domain name and IP address is distinct in nature, there are no 2 alike so long as they are linked to the web. The concept used is that if an individual gets in a particular domain name, it is a most likely opportunity that he will certainly re-visit the website in the future. When one computer system wishes to talk to one more computer system, all of it comes down to an address or what we call an "IP Address".
What this indicates is that the server might return an IP address not matching the real one held by its domain name. When an individual kind in a domain name, he is rerouted to an additional domain name or is left with a message mentioning that the server can not be discovered. A lot more typically than not, the goal of poisoning the cache is to reroute individuals from a real web site to a spoof variation. For more https://dnsservernotresponding.org
When it discovers your IP address
It can show your internet site for the individual that has actually entered your domain name right into their internet browser. The entire procedure of upgrading DNS documents makes internet searching quicker. Each host carrier has their very own duplicate of the master documents, and reviews from it instead of seeking out the IP address on the net each time somebody intends to see your web site.
This procedure makes it much faster for web browsers to obtain an IP address when they seek out the domain, and maintains your host's details regional as opposed to web-wide, consequently decreasing internet website traffic to simply the requirements. If you need to move your domain, undergo domain name enrollment for an additional domain to be affixed to your website, or alter your nameserver, proliferation will certainly need to occur once more. The breeding procedure is normally done within 24 to two days, however you ought to enable as much as 96 hrs to occur since there's no actual criterion for exactly how commonly DNS web servers upgrade.

By now the story is depressingly familiar:
A young man is radicalized by the far-right online ecosystem. That leads him to believe that some "other" group is systematically working to erase the white race. The individual is a lone wolf, staying off law enforcement's radar until it's too late, sometimes literally minutes before the attack, when he announces his plans online.
In the latest instance, the attack was targeted at the Chabad of Poway synagogue, near San Diego, on Saturday. The shooting left one woman dead and three others injured, including an eight-year-old girl.
But perhaps the most alarming factor in this latest incident of far-right violence can be found in the open letter that the gunman, a 19-year-old, posted just prior to the attack. The similarities it bears to the manifesto penned by the shooter in New Zealand who targeted mosques last month shows how the motivations and knowledge of previous far-right extremists are being "meme-ticized," bouncing off of each other and helping to accelerate the rate of attacks.
The use of previous extremists and their manifestos for inspiration by other would-be attackers has long been a persistent theme in the far-right. Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian far-right terrorist who killed 77 people — most of them teenagers — in 2011 has long been venerated in far-right circles, and his rambling, 1,500-page manifesto has been cited as inspiration for other far-right extremists. Both Christopher Hasson, the Coast Guard Lieutenant who stockpiled weapons and had a hit list of prominent Democrats and journalists, and the Christchurch shooter, both cited Breivik and his writings as inspiration.
But the Christchurch attacker's manifesto, where 50 worshipers were killed at two separate mosques, seems to have only further accelerated this process. His 74-page manifesto was filled with smug in-jokes designed to troll those not familiar with the far-right online ecosystem which radicalized him. Less than two months after that incident, the influence of his manifesto is clear to see in the open letter written by the attacker in San Diego on Saturday.
"Information is now moving much quicker, it's no accident that [white nationalists] have spoken with a sense of urgency and you can see that in [the latest shooter's] manifesto," Zahed Amanullah, Resident Senior Fellow at the Institute of Strategic Dialogue, told ThinkProgress. "That sense of urgency comes from a hyper-charged communication landscape. Now these attackers and their supporters and those who were inspired by the attack, they're amplifying their places online and that's a real concern."
"In this case it looks as if they were acting alone in terms of planning but they're not acting alone in terms of being inspired, gathering information, tactical knowledge, ideology, it's clear that the pace of that dissemination is increasing," Amanullah continued. "That's the real concern because the bar is being lowered and lowered for someone to be inspired by the manifesto and to take action themselves."
In their manifestos' diatribes, for instance, both the New Zealand and San Diego shooters take great pains to tout their European heritage. Both manifestos say they want to further polarize the gun control debate, and both respond to anticipated questions about their attacks with in-joke language designed to titillate those in the know and further infect the discourse surrounding the attack. A good example here is the "Subscribe to PewDiePie" meme — which the New Zealand gunman mentions in his livestream of the shooting and the San Diego gunman in his open letter. In response, YouTuber PewDiePie published a video on Sunday — which was #1 on YouTube's trending videos Monday with nearly 7.5 million views — condemning the use of the phrase. While there's no reason to question PewDiePie's renunciation of the meme is anything but heartfelt, the fact that he has been cornered into discussing it at all gives further oxygen to the fringe, far-right online ecosystems which radicalized both shooters.
"The manifestos end up acting like memetic guide for other people… in terms of both the shooting and the manifesto but also in terms of attempts to use memes to radicalize more people," Becca Lewis, a researcher at Data & Society, told ThinkProgress. "[The mention of PewDiePie] is a perfect example. They're trying to stoke division and discord between the mainstream media and internet culture and in some ways hoping to bait PewDiePie into radicalizing youth, which anyone under the age of 20 would say that's ridiculous."
Perhaps most importantly, however, both shooters used the /pol/ board on the website 8chan to announce their intention to carry out a mass shooting. As investigative news outlet Bellingcat has noted, the combination of white nationalist propaganda, continued calls for violence, and now two successful examples of "real-life effortposting" — i.e. violence that translates over from the internet to the real world — creates the worrying possibility that the type of language the two shooters used will be further "memeticized" and, in turn, used as inspiration for yet another far-right extremist attack. In wake of the New Zealand attack, the founder of 8chan Frederick Brennan himself said that he would not be at all surprised if a similar incident happened again.
"Part of the challenge of this is that we now see twice in the span of a month this platform has been used to announce an impending attack," Amanullah said. "There's a pattern now about how you use different platforms to disseminate different messages to different audiences. You have your core believers in 8chan who won't rat on you and who will cheer you on and then you have your mainstream social media platforms used to spread it further."
But while the fingerprints of other far-right extremists can be seen on this latest attack, any sort of consensus on how to tackle the problem remains woefully far off. As Amanullah pointed out, the open letter by Saturday's attacker, as hateful as it is, is not illegal speech, and the open-sourced, lone wolf nature of these attacks makes it virtually impossible to track these individuals as part of a terrorist group. What's more, while social media companies have made a major effort to limit the ability of groups like ISIS to organize and celebrate online, the same effort has not been made towards white supremacist groups — partly because, by Twitter's own admission, that would mean that some Republican politicians end up getting banned as well.
Amanullah likened the ability of 8chan and other parts of the far-right online ecosystem to skirt the rules to the British Islamic hate preacher Anjem Choudary. For years Choudary helped to radicalize men who would go on to commit terrorist acts — including the July 7 bombing in London in 2005 — but all while keeping his speeches and rhetoric just outside the reach of U.K. terror laws. He was finally convicted in August 2016, and was released in October 2018 under strict bail conditions.
One of the more obvious solutions here would be to make a major effort to take 8chan off the web. This would seem straightforward, bearing in mind that it is not only a haven for white nationalists, but child pornographers as well. But as Becca Lewis pointed out, this idea quickly runs into several ethical and logistical hurdles.
"I agree that at this point I think that 8chan is just a truly harmful place for humanity, but at the same time there are a lot of tricky ethical questions that emerge in terms of what platforms are allowed to stay online and at what level that stops," she said. "There are also practical challenges in terms of making it a game of cat and mouse. 8chan emerged as a force after 4chan decided to regulate some of the Gamergate content that got moderated there."
There's also the problematic fact that local law enforcement — be it New Zealand, California, or Pittsburgh — is being forced to confront a movement which is by its nature decentralized, international, and which moves at lightning pace on social media.
"It's really ironic there are these hypernationalist groups and they're coordinating internationally," Lewis said. "I think a lot of this comes back to the social networking capabilities of the internet which are facilitated by social media companies which are international but still by and large based in the U.S. and which appeal to U.S. ideas of freedom of speech so you get a lot of complicated forces. It's a challenge we haven't necessarily faced before."
Both Lewis and Amanullah, however, agreed that mainstream social media platforms needed to do more to stop the rot of far-right extremism from spreading onto their platforms. Because while communities like 8chan are far more vitriolic, it's the ability of these memes and manifestos to spread onto sites like Facebook and Twitter which give them real power. Lewis also noted that media outlets needed to evolve in the way they cover these sort of attacks, to ensure that their manifestos and motives are not given free publicity — which a number of British tabloids notably failed to do in wake of the New Zealand shooting.
"I think one thing that the digital media has enabled is that the nature of memes is that they can travel around world in minutes, and that was absolutely the case in terms of the New Zealand shooting that spread incredibly rapidly as did the Livestream," Lewis said. "If not done carefully, coverage can inspire copycats and we need to think about that."
Amanullah also noted that, in wake of the ISIS attacks on churches in Sri Lanka on Easter, there was very little immediate understanding of who had carried out the attack and why, partly because social media companies had made such an effort to clamp down on the spread of ISIS-linked propaganda online.
"We're hoping to see people turn their eyes towards white supremacy, because that's much more infecting of the mainstream," Amanullah noted. "The danger is that all of this experience and knowledge is being aggregated for the next shooter."
This post has been updated to clarify Mr. Amanullah's comments on the Sri Lanka attack.

Gourmet Finger Food Catering Malvern Vic
8 Expert Tips For Choosing the Right Gourmet Catering Service In Malvern
When it comes to the things that can make or break an event, few are as crucial as the quality, flavor and look of the food and beverages you serve. A lot is riding on your decision which catering service to work with, and if you believe this choice really isn't that crucial, look at it in this manner, amazing catering can rescue an occasion that's on the rocks, however bad catering will generally send guests to the doors.
In addition, due to the fact that catering is frequently the # 1 or # 2 line-item expense for many occasions, the catering service you choose is also a significant financial decision and can affect just how much money you have left over to invest in other areas depending upon food expenses and amounts.
Include that caterers can vary dramatically in their prices and the types of meals and services they use, and the process of choosing a caterer can figuratively and actually feel like you are comparing apples to oranges.
# 1 Responsiveness And Personal Interest In Your Needs
Of all the event and catering professionals we talked with, this showed up over and over and over again, mainly because how responsive and interested a caterer is during your preliminary discussions is a sign of how they will perform throughout the length of their agreement with you (and more on contracts later on).
A prospective catering service needs to be learning as much as they can about you in your first couple of conversations with them, so you must anticipate them to be talking and asking questions about 20% of the time and you supplying responses and detailing your needs about 80% of the time.
# 2 Ability To Manage Your Particular Kind Of Occasion In Malvern 3144
Not every catering service is best or every kind of occasion, and many caterers themselves openly admit this.
So when interviewing your Malvern caterers (and you need to speak to a minimum of 3 caterers for any occasion with an affordable budget plan), you need to specify about the kind of occasion you are planning and the kind of food and/or presentation you are anticipating. Otherwise, you may end up picking a caterer who simply isn't a great fit for the type or style of your occasion.
Almost every caterer has a standard menu or menus to choose from, and numerous do provide some level of built-in flexibility to adapt these menus to your particular needs by substituting particular items and/or customizing others.
However, the standout caterers will surpass standardized menu options and be willing to develop amazing fare that matches much more particular style and dietary requirements.
# 3 Determination To Provide Tastings
How will you ever know what a catering service can do unless you sample their goods? And more particularly, how will you know exactly what the menu items you are considering will taste like unless you specifically try them?
Some people avoid asking to sample the specific items they want for their event because it appears like an inconvenience for the caterer, however it is standard to ask for a tasting of what you are planning to order prior to you sign on the dotted line.
In addition, you can request wine parings for these tastings if they are appropriate for your event (once again, be prepared to pay a cost, it's a small cost to pay to guarantee you choose the right caterer). When you are sampling the food, also attend to how it is presented, as any caterer who takes the time to effectively display a sample will most likely be most likely to make that kind of effort on your event day.
Are you an event supervisor who needs to manage catering information, spending plans and tasks?
Or are you a caterer who needs to track propositions, invoices, meal choices, stock and other customer information?
# 4 Familiarity With The Venue
You may be in for a surprise if you hire a BARBEQUE take-out joint to cater an official ballroom fundraising event. Or if you pick a high-end corporate event caterer to serve a barn wedding. Why? Since these catering services may not be accustomed to preparing and serving food in such a setting.
This can get even more specific depending on limitations of the venue itself, like when it comes to museums and historical sites.
Much more standard locations can also have constraints that caterers need to follow, like specific setup requirements or disposal restrictions for waste food and water, so having a catering service that is familiar with a location's guidelines can possibly save you lots of inconvenience on occasion day.
# 5 Complete Explanation Of Services/Goods Promised In The Contract
The caterer's contract need to clearly define exactly what food, drinks and services the caterer will be offering on the designated day( s). Moreover, it ought to safeguard you from non-performance as much as it safeguards the catering service from non-payment/default, so you might wish to consider having a lawyer} take a look at it before you sign it.
Every detail should be included in the contract, consisted of selected menus, number of servings and/or people to be served, beverage/bar service details (if relevant) and all pricing and additional services.
No caterer in Malvern with a shred of self-respect and scruples enters into an agreement with plans to bail at the last minute, but you need to make certain there is a cancellation stipulation in your agreement just in case your caterer needs to cancel.
You do not want to be left without recourse with only days or hours prior to your event, so simply make sure cancellation procedures and charges remain in place so you do have a backup strategy.
# 6 References You Can Call and Talk With
Obviously you will have to look into the catering services in Malvern you are thinking about, and it's always excellent to begin online and check out sites.
Nevertheless, don't stop there, as online reviews are not constantly reliable (or even authentic); for example, an excellent catering service may have had a few nightmare/hater clients who alter their scores, while a really mediocre catering service might have padded their online reviews. So see if you can locate some previous clients of the catering services you are considering and connect to them.
# 7 Insurance
Every catering service we talked with called insurance protection "a provided" for caterers, and you definitely don't want to lawfully be on the hook for some oversight or mishap that was the fault of your catering service.
# 8 A Skilled Chef and Kitchen Personnel
Surprisingly, how long a catering business in Malvern has stayed in business may not be as crucial in choosing a fantastic caterer as you may believe.
So ensure to ask about the chef's bona fides and CV because he/she will most likely be the one most responsible for the outcome of the meal and whether your visitors enjoy it or not.

Inside, in between and out: How can psychogeography be beneficial to teaching and learning in higher education?
Traditional pedagogic approaches to the teaching of everyday life and cultural theory raise the question of whether they allow students to fully experience everyday life if they're always taught in a physical classroom. Might being consciously engaged with the everyday environment help students gain a deeper understanding of the theoretical lessons taught? By looking at psychogeography practices within different conceptual learning spaces and how psychogeography-influenced writings can be used to learn more about the city, this article examines how psychogeography can be beneficial to learning and teaching in higher education.

What are MMIs?
Multiple mini interviews (MMIs) are part of the application process for some RTOs, including GPTQ. Other RTOs may conduct single long interviews instead. MMIs are designed to find out more about you and why you want to become a GP.
1. Know what to expect
MMIs consist of between five and eight interview stations. You will be asked one question per interview station and you will have two minutes to view and think about the question before going in for the interview. A buzzer will sound and you will be given about eight minutes to answer the question for the interviewer. The interviewer may ask you additional prompting or probing questions to help you provide your best answer to the question.
Once you have finished answering, you will rotate to the next interview station and repeat the process for the next question. The whole process will take a little over an hour.
2. Reflect on why you want to become a GP
The MMIs are designed to ascertain your suitability to general practice. Take some time to think about why you want to be a GP and your motivations. Write them down.
You might ponder the following questions to assist your thought process:
- What does it mean to be a good GP?
- Why do I want to be a GP over and above any other specialty?
- What did I do during medical training that helped me decide to become a GP?
3. Memorise some examples from your work experience
When answering the MMI questions, you will need to think about your past clinical experiences and come up with a variety of examples depending on the question you need to answer. Keep these up your sleeve and use them to add weight to your answers. These will mostly come from patients who have had an impact on you during your working career.
4. Practise time management with mock interviews
Pacing yourself while giving your answers is vital to ensure that you cover all the ground you want to within the allotted time. Ask a friend, relative or colleague to run some mock interview questions with you so that you get comfortable with timing your answers.
5. Practice mindfulness or relaxation techniques
Anxiety and stress on the day can make those answers you thought you had memorised fly right out the window. The best way to combat this is to practice mindfulness and relaxation that you can draw on at the time of the interviews. Allowing your mind to be clear and focused allows you to bring your best answer at the time.
6. Know the difference between MMIs for RACGP and ACRRM
No matter which college you've applied to train through – RACGP or ACRRM – the MMI process is similar. However, there are some key differences in the number and type of questions you might be asked.
For RACGP, you will answer between five and eight questions. For ACRRM, you will also need to answer up to eight questions.
The panel members for RACGP and ACRRM may also differ. For RACGP, members are sourced by the RTO, are all doctors, many are GP supervisors and educators.
The panel for ACRRM could include an RTO doctor, an ACRRM representative, and a rural community representative who is not a doctor. This is important to remember as you may need to adjust your communication to suit a non-medical professional.
7. Reflect on the questions you might be asked
Unlike objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs), there will not be a real or role-played patient presenting to you for a consultation or any elements of a consultation. The questions are designed to find out your motivation for undertaking GP training and to assess your abilities and outlook. Patient scenarios may be used as a backdrop for MMI questions.
Examples of MMI questions you might get include:
- "Describe a time when you were faced with a challenging diagnostic problem. Why was it so challenging and how did you develop a management plan for the patient?" (This question looks at your analytical and problem solving skills)
- "Tell us about a patient you saw who had complex health needs and required follow up by other health professionals after leaving your care." (This question looks at your organisational and management skills)
- "Why have you decided to undertake GP training?" (This question assesses your motivations)
- "Describe a time when you disagreed with advice from another doctor you were working with and how you went about resolving this issue." (This question looks at your conflict management skills)
Other areas that may be assessed include whether you are a leader or team player, and how well you can communicate and express yourself.
Review the ACRRM and RACGP websites and look at their curriculum documents that outline the priority areas that each college is looking for as graduates from their programs.
8. Eat breakfast on the big day
While it might be the last thing you feel like doing, eating a healthy breakfast on the morning of the MMIs will ensure you don't become lightheaded or distracted by a grumbling stomach halfway through the interview process.
9. Dress for the job you want
The panel will be assessing your professionalism, so the best bet is to dress smartly like you would for any other job interview.
10. Make sure you really understand the question and listen to any prompts
When you first see the question, take time to fully grasp what it's asking you. Read it at least twice. Only then can you start formulating your response.
As you enter the room, it can be quite easy for stress to take over your logical brain. If this happens, the examiner will prompt you.
Listen very carefully to these prompts, because the interviewer will never lead you astray. They are a good guide. If you go off track, a panel member will bring you back. They are genuinely looking to find out what you are thinking.
11. Remember to breathe
The best thing you can do for yourself before walking through the door to your interview is to take three deep breaths. Breathe in for three, hold for three and exhale for three. This will reduce your anxiety and feed oxygen to your brain to ensure you remember those answers.
12. Follow up
Keep an eye on our website for upcoming dates, times and locations for the RTO MMIs.
Both GP colleges – ACRRM and RACGP – should also have this information on their respective website and in their applicant guide.
If you have been successful in securing an RTO MMI with GPTQ, you will receive an email from us containing all the vital information.
In the meantime, get busy preparing your example answers and remember to breathe!

Lonesome Point, Texas #4
from New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author Jessie Evans
Can be read as a standalone
20% OFF for the first weeks following release in a limited time
This ride is going to last a lot longer than eight seconds...
Female professional bull rider, Reece Hearst, graduated from the school of hard knocks. With honors. Because life is like bull riding--when it sends you to the dirt, you do whatever it takes to get on your feet, even if you have to crawl. Like when officials stripped her of her rodeo queen title on the basis of vicious gossip years ago and not even her father would believe her side of the story. Reece could have stayed in the dust, wallowing. Instead, she fixed Lonesome Point in her rearview, joined the pro circuit, and never looked back. But now a serious injury threatens to end her career and she's back in Lonesome Point, living next door to the family that once made her life a living hell.
After multiple tours of duty in Afghanistan and his father's death, all Grayson Parker wants is to get his family's cattle business back in the black and live a quiet life. But the return of Reece Hearst opens old wounds, throwing his ordered world into chaos. Grayson was serving overseas when Reece was a teenager and can't believe the girl he once knew has grown into a heartbreaker as hardened as she is beautiful.
Grayson finds a kindred spirit in wounded Reece and soon longs to be the man to show her that there is life after pain and loss. But can two people as damaged as Reece and Grayson find their way to happily ever after? Or will the scars on their hearts forever keep them apart?

Review by pearls
Tired of wimpy female heroines? Then this is the book for you. Reece refuses to believe she can't do anything as well as a man, and she doesn't need anyone's help. Until she's stuck in the cold without a ride. Then the sexy brooding man in the bar starts to look real good. She's only in town for a few days, but as their paths and lives continue to cross and entwine, could she decide to stay. Much was broken for Reece and Grayson before each left the small town. Coming back allows them to face their demons, and, with a partner at their side, begin to heal. There were times that the author became too didactic about her cause, but I loved that Reece was allowed to stay true to herself, be an independent and equal person, and still be able to grow and have a realistic relationship.
About Jessie EvansNew York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Jessie Evans, gave up a career as an international woman of mystery to write the sexy, contemporary Southern romances she loves to read. She's married to the man of her dreams, and together they're raising a few adorable, mischievous children in a cottage in the jungle. She grew up in rural Arkansas, spending summers running wild, being chewed by chiggers, and now appreciates her home in a chigger-free part of the world even more. When she's not writing, Jessie enjoys playing her dulcimer (badly), sewing the world's ugliest quilts to give to her friends, going for bike rides with her house full of boys, and drifting in and out on the waves, feeling thankful for sun, surf, and lovely people to share them with.

My brain is too busy today. There are numerous things to do, and as many that are interesting me right now. This overwhelm is making me procrastinate and hop from one job to the next without doing any one of them justice. So I decided to write. I was going to write some more about the Arthurian Tarot and the Wisdom of Merlin Oracle, but there are several different angles I'd like to explore, and as yet am unsure where to start.
So I asked the cards. 'What shall I start with?' 'What can I write about today?'
Subject. Beginning, Middle. Resolution.
'Write about overwhelm', they said. 'Write about finding a way to coolly focus on one or two things in order to break through the sheer volume of conflicting jobs.' 'Write about how each thing can only flourish when the load is lightened'. 'Write about focus, and how the Tarot can help. Let folks know that extracting one of those batons makes it an ace, a clear and successful road ahead'.
Being cunning with one's resources when passions and desires and chores and work are all piling up like a laundry basket after a fortnight away with three children and a dog, requires the wielding of a cudgel. Stand straight, don't be weighed down and bonk the unnecessary on the head, beat the 'I need it now's' into submission and choose one thing. One thing that when done, will lighten the load considerably', which suggests to me, do the very thing I least want to do. Good tactic Royne de Batons – less procrastination.
'Looking at the chores is like two toddlers fighting on a tiresomely hot day', says the cards. 'You know fine well that they need to be dealt with, despite feeling all hot and bothered and in need of a drink', they continued. 'Act sooner rather than later, cool them down and soothe them and set them to separate tasks'.
'What do you mean?' I ask.
'If you separate tasks, deal with them before they become urgent, life will be a lot simpler in the long run. Just as it's no fun to be a child with sunstroke, (or to care for a child with sunstroke), it's no fun feeling the stress of doing too much at once in a half-assed, half-cocked manner. Not satisfactory at all'.
'The most masterful way to deal with all of these things you need to get done, want to get done and want to explore is to grasp one of them firmly, turn away from distractions, and focus on it completely, until it is completely completed in as complete a manner as it can be completed at this time. Do not focus more than six feet ahead of you at any given moment, think ace'.
Ah. Mindfulness. One job at a time.
Tarot is a very astute tool.
Now, I'm off to clean the bathroom…

Out of the Swamp of Darkness: 2
"Your presence Father!"
As mentioned in the previous post the two crashes and all the other stress had slammed into me with such impact I was lost and sinking ever deeper in the mire of the swamp of darkness.
Those simple words: "Your presence Father!", called me out of myself, reminding me of the luminous truth of who I am and they shook me up.
Not in a negatively disturbing way but rather as if being urgently shaken awake.
Thus, as part of the baby steps towards the path, if not yet quite stepping onto the path out of the swamp, I began seriously to - through silent listening, meditation in Sacred Scripture, spiritual reading on the priesthood by various authors such as Pope John Paul and the Servant of God Catherine Doherty, and most important of all spending time with my face on the ground before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament - seeking the grace to embrace my powerlessness and trust Him!
I confess that, in the depths of the swamp of darkness, I had begun to question the point of keeping on, keeping on!
Thankfully, by the grace of God, I was protected from that desperate pit of grief wherein the pain is so complete, the hopelessness so absolute, that increasingly appears to be the hopelessness which leads priests who so suffer to commit suicide.
Certainly the multi-year stress, humiliation, frustration, impediment to public ministry, to even dress according to my consecrated state in life; the persistent refusal of my own bishop even to speak with me; the snail's pace of the appeal process to Rome by which the Holy See compounds the suffering of priests – all of this had me seething with frustration and bent over with discouragement, to the point of seriously considering walking away from the priesthood and turning to the civil courts to attack my accuser, my bishop, my diocese and sue the lot of them into oblivion in the glare of the media, in hopes this would face slap the institutional church into rendering Gospel charity and true justice to priests.
Of course the soul-corrosive sub-text of such disordered thinking, of such writhing in frustration and fury, becomes questioning the very point of any form of loyalty to Christ, the Gospel, the Church, priesthood, vows.
Thus the mire sinking accelerates to the point where the question can indeed become that which leads some priests to take their own lives: Why bother living? Why not end the pain now?
By the lavishness of Divine Mercy I was granted not so much effective personal prayer but grace surely the result of the prayers of others – life's breath must be asked of the Holy Spirit, along with the grace to open the doors of our being in receptive willingness to cooperate with grace.
Hope is needed, hope indeed is necessary for every human being – hope encourages awakening in the morning, risking asking a beloved's hand in marriage and with them risking conceiving a child with no guarantees as to how that child's life will unfold.
Hope enables men to enter the seminary, accept ordination.
Hope allows us, at the time chosen by God, to accept the great step of faith: death.
{ Now here is something which just came to my heart: I don't doubt that the millions of Catholics who had faithfully pray the "Fatima Prayer" after each decade of the Rosary, with simplicity of heart, do two things: 1] truly trust that the prayer is always answered and 2] assume it is especially for souls at the point of death.
Well I have always understood the prayer as primarily for each of us, for everyone is "most" in need of mercy – sometimes perhaps more urgently than we realize.
At any rate I believe much grace was given me because others were praying the prayer with such generosity: O my Jesus forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those most in need of Your Mercy.
It is a simple prayer but one – given the immense suffering in our world – we should all pray.}
Next post I will share some about the next step in the struggle: taking in the wisdom of friends and spiritual writers.

Giugno Pisano, a month of historical reenactments, festivals and concerts
May 27, 2012 Leave a comment
Every year the city of Pisa celebrates its historical traditions within Giugno Pisano: the entire month of June is dedicated to traditional events, history, plays, concerts and exhibitions.
During Giugno Pisano Pisa celebrates some important historical events, mainly joint with the saint patron's day.
These are the main events:
- the Luminara of S. Ranieri on 16th Jume
On the night of the 16th of June of every year the enchantement of the Luminara of Saint Ranieri is renewed on the streets running along the river Arno in Pisa.
Pisans celebrete their patron, Saint Ranieri, on 17 June, but the Luminara begins the day before. About 70.000 wx candles meticulosly set in glasses and fixed to wooden white-panted frames (the so called "biancheria") are modelled in such a way to exalt the outline of the palaces, the bridges, the churches and the tower reflecting the river.
The leaning Tower is illuminated too, by oil lamps, set also in the crenellations of teh city walls of alla Piazza dei Miracoli.
The event offers the visitor a unique feeling: the reverberation on the many tremblig lights on the Arno and the candles that are left foating on its waters semm to
- the Festa of S.Ranieri on 17th June
- the Historical Regatta of S. Ranieri on 17th June afternoon
The afternoon of June 17th is dedicated to the celebrations of Pisa's Patron Saint Ranieri.
Four boats representing the 4 ancient town districts compete in a Regatta on the River Arno – the so called Regata di San Ranieri, heritage of the past glory of Pisa as an ancient maritime republic.
Each disctrict is distingueshed by its own colours:
- San Martino – red
- Sant'Antonio – green
- Santa Maria – celeste
- San Francesco – giallo
The fibreglass boats have 5 fixed seats with 8 oarsmen, a steetsman and a climber.
The distance covered is 1500 metres starting upstream from the Ponte della Ferrovia (the Railway Bridge), the finish being in front of the Palazzo Medici along the Lungarno Mediceo.
The final victory does not depende upon the arrival order of the boats but upon the climber's skill who after boarding a boat anchored at the finishing line, has to climb up one of the 4 rodes reaching the top of a 10-metre-high mast hoisted on the boat in order to gasp the banner wich is the symbol of the victory. Two geese represent the meagre prize for the last crew to finish.
The catch of the banner recalls the ancient exploit at Lepanto, when the fleet of the Knights of Saint Stephen boarded the Turkish flagship and stole the Muslim fight banner waving on the mast. This banner, recently restored, is preserved in the Church of St Stephen of the Knights in Pisa.
- the Gioco del Ponte on the last Sunday of June
This historically evocative event, called Gioco del Ponte – the Battle of the Bridge, consists of two distinct but equally significant moments: the historical processione along the River Arno, which is a huge military parade and the Battle on the Ponte di Mezzo, during which the two opposing teams give proof of their physical strenght in a strongly competitive atmosphere.
The event is traditionally held on the last Sunday of June and includes the historical parade with over 700 partecipants.
The Mezzogiorno and Tramontana sides march separately but at the same time anticlockwise along the four streets running along the Arno river close to the Ponte di Mezzo.
There is also a third parade composed by the Judges, that is 81 more partecipants.
Victory goes to the team that conquers the Bridge by pushing the cart and all the opponents to the opposite end of the sliding rail.
The different teams of Tramontana represent the districts of Santa Maria, San Francesco, San Michele, Mattaccini, Claci, Satiri.
Mezzogiono represent the districts of Sant'Antonio, San martino, San Marco, Leoni, Dragoni, Delfini
- every 4 yeas, la Historical Regatta of Repubbliche Marinare
Since 1956 the cities of Amalfi, Genoa, Venice and Pisa have partecipated in the Regatta of the Ancient Maritime Republics. The event evockes the past glory of the most important episodies in the history of the four Maritime Republics.
The first official edition took place in Pisa on the 1st July of that year. Since then, every year the challenge is hosted in turn off the coast of Amalfi and Genoa, along the River Arno in Pisa and in the lagoon of Venice.
The four boats representing the four Republics are maked by different colours:
– Blu for Amalfi
– wuhite for Genoa
– red for Pisa
– green for Venice
Each boat has a figure-head at the prow:
– the winged horse for Amalfi
– the winged dragon for Genoa
– teh eagle for Pisa
– the lion for Venice
The Regatta is preceded by agreat parade of 320 pepole (80 for each Republic) which evokes the characteristics, the events and the characters of the history of these four ancient maritime cities, which during the Middle Ages ploughing the seas with their fleets prospered and spread their culture throughout the Mediterranean by means of their military and commercial dominion.
The peageant of Pisa goes back to the legend of Kinzika de' Sismondi, the pisan heroine who according to the tradition saved the city from an invasion by Saracens.

I've been craving something sweet, but I'm also trying to cut down on my sugar and chocolate intake. These Carrot Cake Cookies are amazingly delicious, low in added sugar and full of healthy ingredients. I made them for a holiday party at my yoga studio last year, and the response was overwhelming; they were gone in 10 minutes! So on this rainy Sunday, I've decided to whip up a batch of cookies and share with my friends.
The Recipe:
1/2 cup organic butter, softened (for a vegan option use a vegan butter substitute like Earth Balance)
2/3 cup organic brown sugar
2 eggs (for a vegan option use 4 tbsp of ground flaxseed mixed with the liquid from crushed pineapple)
1 8 oz. can organic crushed pineapple, drained (if making vegan, save the liquid to use as an egg substitute)
3/4 cup shredded organic carrots
1 cup organic raisins
2 cups organic whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp ground organic cinnamon
1 cup chopped organic walnuts (optional)
Preheat your oven to 350 and grease cookie sheets. In a large bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time and add the crushed pineapple, carrots and raisins. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon to the carrot mixture. Stir in walnuts. Drop the batter by spoonful onto the baking sheets. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the bottoms begin to brown. Let cool and the cookie sheets for a few minutes and then move cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
Try this recipe and let us know what you think! How did yours come out? Have any better vegan substitutes? How about a sugar substitute? Leave me your comments!

In this image I created a back round about violence and how it makes people feel .I chose the color dark blue because when I think of violence I think of a dark loud but sad tunnel. The reason I made some of the words bigger like for example DEATH because so many young children< teens, and adults are losing there lives.When i was taking my picture I had trouble finding what pose i wanted to do. I thought of, if i was in this type of problem what would i do and i thought i would cover my face and try to hind from getting hurt.

The Lake Reflections
Boyd Lee Dunlop
Available from Boyd Lee Dunlop's online store.
A review written for the Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange
Now, this is a story for the books! Boyd Lee Dunlop was 85 and in a nursing home when he recorded his first solo CD…and then promptly dropped dead of a heart attack, remained so for six full minutes, which usually means brain damage but not in this case, recovered, and left the nursing home to record this CD, his second. If that's not amazing enough, The Lake Reflections(named for the peaceful photos of Lake Erie by Brendon Bannon)—if you're prepared to digest a disc of very mannered outside piano solo improv—is going to baffle one and all with the fashion in which it succeeds, bringing to mind a strangely Romanto-Impressionistic blend of Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson, McCoy Tyner, Keith Jarrett, George Winston, even Ferrante & Teicher, as well as many others played in the foyer of a futuristic Ritz Carlton seeing Monsieur Hulot sitting down with Federico Fellini for a surreal evening's quirkily mannered concert.
Again, this cat is 85, but his touch is confident, his mind ceaselessly grasping at possibilities as they occur second by second, note by note, chord by chord. Boyd's time signatures splinter and fractionate, intonations leap up and then settle back down again, transmuting into something else with the same backbone but in different flesh. Each song's thematics dance before the listener, echoes from distant memories. In the 70s, I caught Earl Hines at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall in Sarasota, Florida, and what he produced, warming up before the band came on to accompany was a lot like this. I glanced over at my buddy and asked "Is this guy setting the stage for Pink Floyd or warming up for the blues?" We both chuckled, but it was an arresting display of what an acclaimed talent of long standing in its seventh decade was capable of.
But there's more. Boyd Lee gave his brother Frankie drum lessons when they were young. Frankie went on to play with Monk, Ellington, Mingus, Rollins, Hampton, and others, appearing on over 100 records. Boyd, though, worked at steel mills and rail yards days while devoted to the piano nights, playing in and around Buffalo, NY, appearing on only one recorded gig ever, with Big Jay McNeeley. Writer Allen Farmelo in his liner notes calls this collection "a record of strange struggles to find peace, a weird and wonderful language, a challenging collage of ideas and impossible incongruities…something no style or convention can contain", and it's precisely all that, emphasis on the impossible incongruities, which marks Boyd's territory.
As is true of many creatives, Boyd has no idea where all this comes from: "To me," he says, "it's a gift from God. I know what the fuck I'm doing, though", and he certainly does, as no one could come up with the striking shades, deviations, and variations he conjures inside such seemingly conservative architectures unless he knew what he was on about, technically and intuitionally. Therefore, be warned, as The Lake Reflections first seems to be one thing, then another, then still another, but, when you're done listening, you'll be unable to put a finger confidently on any style or genre. It's jazz, but it rightly belongs to that time when the outfits brother Frankie was playing in and among—Monk, Mingus, the Duke—were doing regularly what few others still are able to manage at all.

After a couple of years of witnessing a slowdown, the real estate sector in India is all set to pick up again in 2019. With the effects of reforms like RERA and GST kicking in, investors can look towards more transparent processes and quality projects in 2019 such as Xrbia Ambi which is designed and created by Xrbia Developers.
So, if you are on the lookout for flats in Talegaon, here are 5 reasons that will compel you to invest in real estate in India in 2019.
- Focus on affordable and mid-segment housing: The Government's agenda of Housing For All By 2022 has propelled a range of measures to increase the supply of affordable and mid-segment housing in India. Moreover, real estate developers such as Xrbia Developers are exploring new markets in order to meet this target within the timeline with projects like Xrbia Ambi in Talegaon. This year, investors will get to explore many new options in the budget segment, making it easier than ever to own a home.
- Small and diversified investments through REITs: The advent of REITs has proved to be very useful for India's real estate economy. REITs, very much like mutual funds, allow investors to start small and diversify their investments in the real estate sector. So, if you're looking to make even a small and simple investment in real estate, REITs is the way to go.
- Lucrative GST concessions: The revised GST rates now offer attractive concessions on the purchase of ready-to-occupy properties, as well as on homes purchased under CLSS. 2019 is a great year to avail of these concessions and invest in a home of your choice.
- Additional tax benefits: The Interim Budget 2019 has further announced tax concessions for purchases in the affordable housing segment. The tax benefits as applicable under Section 80-IBA of the Income Tax Act are now being extended for an additional year and will apply to housing projects approved till 31st March 2020 – this includes the 1 BHKs in Talegaon at Xrbia Ambi. Moreover, the capital gain benefit applicable under Section 54EC has been doubled to Rs. 2 crore and is also applicable to two houses.
- Transparency, efficiency and quality: With of reforms like RERA, GST and the Benami Property Act finally showing effect, investors can now look towards safe and secure investments, reliable projects, transparent processes, and quality construction. 2019 will be the year to witness many new projects that are compliant with the new regulatory standards.
If you're looking to buy a new home in 2019, Xrbia Ambi is the place to be. With 1 BHK flats in Talegaon, it is a residential project by Xrbia Developers – one of the well-renowned real estate developers in the country. The apartments are nearing possession with 1 BHK flats starting at Rs. 10.24 Lac* on wards and 2 BHKs starting at Rs. 16.91 Lac* on wards. Tranquil surroundings welcome you with premium amenities while you still enjoy easy accessibility to some of the best social infrastructure.

Advocates for immigrants and the poor want the state to crack down on a type of robbery rampant in New York: wage theft.
We stand with them because too many companies have gotten away with stiffing employees of the fruits of their hard-earned labor.
The National Employment Law Project estimates more than 317,000 New Yorkers are cheated out of pay, to the tune of $18.4 million a week.
Ripping off low-income workers is only a third of the offense. In the process, employers who run roughshod over the law also deprive the city and state of much-needed tax revenue and put law-abiding employers at an unfair disadvantage.
The way to end this scourge is to convince the bad actors that it's not worth the risk to cheat.
Proposed legislation in Albany, sponsored by Staten Island state Sen. Diane Savino and Bronx Assemblyman Carl Heastie, would toughen penalties against chiseling employers who ignore minimum-wage laws, cheat workers out of overtime and otherwise flout basic labor protections.
Employers would have to pay back wages, with interest, and face fines up to double that amount. The worst scofflaws would be hit with felony charges and prison time.
Not much good gets done in Albany these days - understatement of the year - but this is one bill that could help thousands of people who need government on their side. It should swiftly pass, and then the Labor Department should get to work putting teeth in the enforcement.
An honest day's pay for an honest day's work. What's more American than that?

I've compiled a brief tutorial on getting started with Arduino for the absolute beginner. I'll cover where to learn, what to buy, and where to go for help.
Why should you crafters be interested in Arduino? The Arduino platform, more-so than any other way of incorporating electronics into your projects, is geared towards do-it-yourselfers. It's open source (both on a hardware and software level), so the community plays a large role in its development and improvement. Crafting is a community endeavor; individuals share tips, tricks, techniques, skills, and materials all the time.
Arduino comes out of the same spirit. On a more practical level, you may just want to make your crafts more fun, interesting, and interactive by introducing some lights, motion, sound, or simple sensors. Stuffed toys can become glowing night-lights or cat-chasing robots, fibers can carry currents to make smart clothes, accessories, you name it. There's also an overlap in materials between crafting and circuit building that can lead to some non-traditional works in either category: threads, fabrics, paints, and glues with conductive properties introduce subtle ways to incorporate electronics in your crafting practice. Read on to start learning about Arduino! Add your Arduino tips and resources in the comments.
Where to Learn
First and foremost is the Arduino website. It's a huge repository of helpful information, but it can be overwhelming at first. I recommend Massimo Banzi's "Arduino Booklet" PDF as a contained introduction to the Arduino and physical computing in general Link. Tod Kurt has run classes about Arduino before, and has put his class presentation PDFs online. They're very comprehensive and great for beginners.
What to Buy – The absolute basics for learning the platform
The Board: I recommend the USB Arduino board, pre-assembled, for first-timers. Make sure it comes with a USB A-B cable.
A Solderless Breadboard: For attaching other components to your board; you can pick this up at Radioshack or Sparkfun.
LEDs (light-emmiting diodes): Most of the basic tutorials involve lights. You can pick these up at Radioshack (in the component drawers, one should be clearly labeled "LEDs"); just grab an assorted pack to start with. They come in all shapes and sizes.
Wire: You'll need some 22 gauge solid (not stranded) hook-up wire to connect your board to your components. Different colors are a matter of preference. This is another Radioshack-available material.
Pushbuttons: Any switch will work, but I prefer small "normally open" buttons that can plug directly into your breadboard.
Needlnose pliers and wire strippers are both available at RadioShack, but check out Techni-Tool for some more options.
That's all you'll need to get started!
What to buy – next steps and general resources
General electronics resources for parts can sometimes be tough to navigate with their poor web interfaces, but you'll get used to the information overload. Tip: clicking on links to the "datasheet" will often get you a picture or drawing of the component, which helps a lot.
Parts and Supplies Retailers (besides Radioshack, which may phase out their components division fairly soon)
Reynolds Electronics
Conductive fabrics, paints, epoxies, threads: Less EMF
If you think you'll play with electronics more than once, I'd highly recommend purchasing a multi-meter. You don't need a super high-end one.
Where to go for Help
The Arduino User Community: It's full of guides, tutorials, sample code, circuit diagrams, and for more information on Arduino, Arduino community, Arduino forum and Arduino projects, you may visit: Arduino Project

There are two types of hydraulic hose crimpers – adjustable and non-adjustable also called "positive stop".
Examples of non-adjustable crimper brands are "parker" and "weatherhead"
This means that if you buy a parker crimper, you will have to buy parker hose and fittings for it (or a knock-off brand that matches it's crimp spec requirements.
It also means that if you buy a weatherhead crimper, you will have to buy weatherhead hose and fittings for it (or a knock-off brand that matches it's crimp spec requirements.
Adjustable crimpers
There are many brands of adjustable hydraulic hose crimpers:
- Aeroquip
- Custom crimp
- Dayco
- Finn-power
- Gates
- Goodyear
If you have an adjustable crimpr, it means that it will usually be able to crimp fittings and hose from another brand than the crimper itself. The crimper will have to have the die range and crimp force to do a proper crimp. Call us if you have questions.

Beer Brand Removes Hot Guys From Town To Give Regular Men A Chance
By Winona Wee, 09 Sep 2015

In its latest bid to "help" regular guys, Andes Beer and agency Del Campo Saatchi & Saatchi took more than 370 good-looking men out on a fake casting call, so that ordinary men could get a better chance at being noticed by women.
The fake casting call was set up on a Saturday night in Mendoza, Argentina and featured the men reading bits of texts which, once strung together and edited, explained Andes' stunt.
Called 'The Fairest Night Of All', the rationale behind the stunt was that it was a win-win situation for both parties: the good-looking men got to be in an advertisement, while ordinary men everywhere partied and socialized with women.

Temperature controlled cabinet
Exterior dimensions – 4ft x 2ft x 5ft 8in
Interior dimensions – see pics, will accommodate up to 4 buckets and 2 carboys. If you were so inclined you might fill it with wine even.
Cabinet is lined with 2″ foam, seams sealed with aluminum tape.
Temperature controller is an STC1000 digital controller. The electrical box has 2 outlets each for hot, cold and always-on-power. I never got around to setting up anything for the hot channel but used the always-on to run a couple of fans inside the storage space to circulate air.
Refrigeration provided via dorm fridge.
The upper shelf makes a great spot to store any additional supplies or gadgets.
You'll need a full sized pickup or a trailer to take it away. I'm done making beer and cider for now and it needs a good home.

Holly was on time and did a good job. I am slightly disappointed by the quality of the products used though. The moisturising cream was quite oily and the varnishes looked quite old and the end result on hands and feet doesn't look as neat as expected.
Thanks Sarah, so professional and I was really happy with the pedicure, she really took care over it!
Great first experience with LeSalon and Eva. She did a great job and was lovely to speak with. Thank you!
Nail technician was great. Very focused, friendly and detailed.
Francesca was friendly, quick and very accommodating. I'm a disabled customer, she made me feel extremely comfortable and the fact that she had to adapt her way of working to suit my needs. I'm definitely going to book again.

Our days here are winding down, so I'm going to post a few photos of us in a few of our favorite eateries, or, in one case, on the calle out front. Olivia took the photo of me, above, in Cafe Condesa, the restaurant on the Square that is always packed with Antiguenos, North Americanos, and visitors from around the world. Olivia loves their pancakes; I always order their eggs and black beans. If you've been to Antigua even once, you've probably enjoyed a cup of their coffee.
Olivia's other favorite food, anywhere, is pizza. We've discovered a little place where they'll cook hers the way she likes: no cheese, with pepperoni extra crispy. The restaurant boasts three television sets, and no matter when we go, afternoon or evening, on one of the channels we can watch Shakira leading thousands of fans in dancing the "Waka Waka." Here's Olivia breaking into her version on the street.
The last photo is of Olivia and me at what is perhaps Guatemala's most famous eatery, Pollo Campero. When we first started visiting Guatemala in 2002, we smelled Pollo Campero on every plane ride home: the overhead compartments were filled with buckets of the crispy chicken, carried by Guatemalans to family members in the United States. I hear now that Pollo Campero is everywhere, from Florida to Texas. No wonder we no longer smell it on the airplane.
I bet I'm not the only one who misses the aroma.
