Is Your Child Sick?
Medical Library
"How can I make my child stop biting her little friends? She probably won't have any before long. Whenever she is frustrated, she just bites."
We hope it helps you to know that biting is a temporary behavior in some children from the time of teething until around three. Even though biting is embarrassing for parents of the biter and upsetting to the parents of the child who gets bitten, biting is not a misbehavior in most cases, but due to a lack of skills. Children who bite often do so when they become frustrated in social situations and do not know how to express themselves in acceptable ways. Some toddlers may bite because that is their way of exploring, "I wonder what Suzie will taste like or feel like." Children also may bite their parents and think it's a game. It is important to deal with biting in ways that do not leave residual problems, such as children feeling they are bad or deciding it is okay to hurt others smaller than they are because adults punish by hurting them.
1. Do not bite the child back or wash the child's mouth out with soap. Hurting a child does not help her learn to stop hurting others.
2. When your child has a history of biting, supervise closely. Intervene quickly when disputes begin (see Fighting, Friends).
3. Watch the child closely for a few days during play with other children. Every time she looks like she is ready to bite, cup your hand over her mouth and say, "It is not okay to bite people. Tell the other child what you want." If the child is pre-verbal, after cupping your hand over her mouth and saying it is not okay to bite, offer a distracting choice: "Do you want to play on the swings or with the blocks?"
4. When your child bites before you are able to intervene, quickly remove the child, give her a hug, and say, "It is not okay to bite people." You may need to do this several times while you are teaching the child other skills or waiting for her to outgrow biting.
5. Comfort the child who has been bitten and apologize to the parent. Be honest with your feelings. "I feel very embarrassed about this, and I will do everything I can to help my child stop biting. However, I do not believe punishment solves anything." Comforting the child who has been bitten, after hugging the biter, models loving ways to deal with people.
6. If you are dealing with another parent who thinks you should punish your child, stand your ground. "I can see we have different philosophies and that it would not be respectful for either of us to try to change the other." Then walk away with dignity and respect for yourself and the other person. Your child is more important than what others think of you.
7. If your child is at the teething stage and continues to want to bite, offer her a stuffed animal or cloth to bite. Help her find relief for sore gums by offering a frozen juice bar.
1. Play "Let's Pretend" with your child. Pretend the two of you are fighting over a toy and that you are going to bite him. Stop and ask, "How would you feel if I bit you? What would you like me to do instead?" Then pretend you are fighting over a toy and let your child try whatever he suggested to do instead of biting.
2. Brainstorm other ways to handle problems. If your child doesn't have any ideas of what to do instead of biting, teach him to use words. You can make suggestions, such as suggesting that he tell the other child, "I'm mad at you" or "Let me have a turn" or "I'll go get another toy and we'll trade" or that he ask an adult to help settle the problem. Then play "Let's Pretend" so he can practice these ideas.
3. Use emotional honesty: "I feel bad when you bite other people because I don't like to see people get hurt. I wish you would find something else to do besides bite people."
4. If you child is pre-verbal, it is important to accept the fact that he needs close supervision and kind and firm distraction until he learns socially acceptable ways to handle frustration. Take comfort in knowing that he will not be biting by the time he goes to kindergarten-if not much sooner.
5. When you are supervising closely, you will be able to understand what your child is trying to accomplish. Verbalize his intention before showing him another way: "I can see that you want the ball. It is not okay to bite to get the ball. Let's find another ball."
Children can learn that it is not acceptable to hurt other people. They can learn that their parents love them no matter what they do, and adults will help them find acceptable ways to solve problems. Children can learn they are capable of solving problems in ways that don't hurt other people, and that their parents will remain lovingly kind and firm while they learn.
1. Some people think hugging a child who has just bitten another child is rewarding the misbehavior. It is not. Hugging gives the child reassurance of your love while not accepting the child's behavior. Hugging helps the child feel belonging and helps reduce the need to misbehave. It also shows the child an acceptable way to behave--to love the other person and tell him or her what you don't like.
2. Some parents believe you should bite a child back to teach them how it feels. By biting them back, you could accidentally be teaching them that biting is an acceptable way to behave-even if it hurts.
If you really pay attention, you can tell when your child is about to bite you. She gets a little gleam in her eye, throws her head back, and charges with an open mouth. So that your child knows this is not a game you wish to play, hold her away from you and say, "It is not okay to bite people. If you want to bite, Mom will get you a rubber toy to bite." If you say this and mean it, your child may stop biting in a few days.

What a fabulous, delicious, time-saving recipe! These look awesome 🙂
I love breakfast burritos! Can't believe I never thought of this! 🙂
Love this idea, Natalie!
These sound wonderful — I'm quite sure my hubby would LOVE them! Pinning this!
These are perfect! My husband eats ones from Sam's every morning, but they are expensive! I am definitely doing this from now on. How do you recommend reheating them?
I live in England and came across breakfast burritos about a month ago, it could have been your site, I'm not sure. I decided to make some a few weeks ago. Its not something most people here eat but I knew we would like it. I enjoyed it more than I expected, ours had onions, bell peppers, egg, cheese and sausage (English) and wow were they tasty. I froze some but need to make more!
Do you season your potatoes? My fav breakfast burritoes are about $3 a piece and I have to be on the right side of town before 10 am to even think about splurging on them. When I worked across the street I had one or two every morning. Now I make them at home but have left out the potato because I am unsure on how to cook them. tips pointers? Love the freezing idea and the heating instructions.
@ShannonHi Shannon, I couldn't find an email address for you anywhere, so I'm hoping you come back here and find my reply! For this batch, I diced my potatoes into small cubes and then tossed them with a small amount of olive oil and lightly seasoned with salt and pepper. I roasted at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes or until fork tender. Other times, I have used my mandoline to julienne the potatoes and make homemade hashbrowns that I just fry up quick and then use those instead. If I have roasted potatoes left over from the previous night's dinner, I'll chop them up and throw them in as well! Hope that helps!
These look yummy!! Thanks for sharing…
@kamieHi Kamie! I couldn't find an email address for you so hopefully you come back and see this! Here's the email I tried to send but it got returned.
That's too cool that you live in Lebanon! I'm grew up in Palmyra so not too far at all! The longest they've ever lasted around here is probably a month or so before we eat them all, so I'm not sure past that.
I just reheat them the way I mentioned in the post and I've never had any issues!
"When it comes time to eat them, there's no need to thaw ahead of time. Just remove from freezer and wrap in a paper towel. Place in the microwave for 1.5-2 minutes and it will be heated through and ready to eat!"
Thanks for the note and have a great weekend! We're supposed to have gorgeous weather!
Hi Natalie, how do you reheat? Micro for 2 min? Also, do you know how long they usually last? Looks like you have a bunch of them! BTW, we don't live far from each other. 🙂 I am just up the road in Lebanon.
Natalie this is great! My oldest loves breakfast burritos but I don't make them often enough. I, too, make and freeze them but I never get the folding right. And I Love the idea of potatoes in them! I will have to make a batch real soon! Thanks for the cost breakdown. I always wondered 'bout that.
Just stumbled on this. Have you tried using bacon AND sausage? Also, When I make breakfast burritos, I like to mix the ingredients together instead of layering them. This way I don't over fill my burritos.
Do the eggs and sausage need to be room temP prior to assembly for the flash freeze to work properly? Great idea btw.
so how long can you keep these BREAKFAST BURRITOS in the freezer
Hello Natalie,
since I don't own a microwave, and don't plan on buying it, how can I preheat these in the oven?
I'd probably wrap them in foil, but for how long and how high should the oven be set on?
Greetings from Switzerland!

The list of Washington sex scandals is long and, really, quite distinguished. One would have to include John F. Kennedy and, just to be fair, Thomas Jefferson. I want to mention Warren Harding, a randy devil he, and even Dwight D. Eisenhower, whose wartime affair with his driver, Capt. Kay Summersby, has long been alleged. Lyndon Johnson's affairs have been documented by the indefatigable Robert Caro — and were all but conceded by the weary Lady Bird Johnson. These matters can hurt.
It may turn out that Petraeus's greatest intelligence failure had nothing to do with what happened at Benghazi but with his utter disregard of the novelist Nelson Algren's three rules of life: "Never play cards with a man called Doc. Never eat at a place called Mom's. Never sleep with a woman whose troubles are worse than your own." Many a man, including Algren, who hooked up with the difficult Simone de Beauvoir, has disregarded these rules to his regret. Petraeus has to be added to this list. Broadwell was reckless with her e-mails and she then promoted her book with a bit more than wink: She was embedded with him. The book is called "All In." Oh, grow up!
But now that it has all been done, is there a better man to fill Petraeus's CIA seat than Petraeus himself? He is blackmail-proof and more than qualified for the job. He not only was a four-star general, a West Point grad (top 5 percent of his class) and a Princeton scholar but, in the quite recent past, he held the director's job himself. The United States would not only be getting the best man for the job but also striking a blow against the sexual McCarthyism that has destroyed so many careers and, in wretched silence, has aborted many a political career before it was even announced.

How RFID Could Continue in ChinaBy Elizabeth Millard Print
The 2008 Olympics in
At the Olympics, these partnerships will be significant, Liard added, because so many nations are coming together, and the RFID vendors running the ticketing and food transportation logistics are no exception.
"There's a chance here to show how people from different countries can work together," Liard says.
After the last gold medal is slipped around the head of an athlete, RFID in China could continue in a number of ways, Liard notes, and most particularly for its food safety issues.
The country's challenges with food and pharmaceutical safety has been the subject of numerous news reports focused on everything from tainted pet food to contaminated toothpaste to unsafe ingredients for widely-prescribed medications. In July, China executed its former head of the State Food and Drug Administration for taking bribes and showing dereliction of duty.
By implementing a more comprehensive RFID system similar to what's being put in place at the Olympics, the country could have a much better grasp not only on destination and arrival of food, but also how it's been treated along the way.
The RFID system at the Olympics is paired with sensor technology, says Mullen, which records the temperature of the shipment at every moment. For something like a case of sports drinks, this might not be so important, but for highly perishable foods like beef or pork, the information is invaluable, especially since it will be offered to thousands of athletes and coaches, as well as millions of spectators.
"As you can imagine, the amount of food moving into and around the game is pretty immense," says Mullen. "The RFID and sensor system allows someone with a reader to see if a food has gone outside a temperature range, rather than just reading a bar code to determine that it's the correct box. That makes the data more dynamic, and we can see that it could have a lot of impact in the future."
RFID and sensors are already being used in conjunction by some transport companies, mainly with pharmaceuticals that need to be maintained at a certain temperature at all times. But the massive scope of the Olympics could be an example to China and other countries for implementation of government-run systems.
Similarly, success with the RFID-enabled tickets could change how ticketing is done for other large-scale events. The technology will be used for the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, for example, where it could be placed into nearly 70 million tickets, notes Liard.
"At this point, even bar codes can be forged," Liard says. "RFID tickets have been used before in China to defeat counterfeiting, such as for admittance at the Great Wall of China and tennis events, but the scope of this implementation is what makes it unique."
Also worth noting is how RFID can be paired with other uses, he adds, such as combining event admission and parking, or adding in concession stand features that will allow a user to hand over their ticket instead of carrying cash.
"Identification management has been an area where RFID has been used since the early days," says Mullen. "But now, with the ticketing aspect, you're going to see the anti-counterfeiting space really expand."

More than 375 Hope College students will participate in service projects throughout the area through the college's "Time to Serve" program on Saturday, Aug. 30.
More than 375 Hope College students will participate in service projects throughout the area through the college's "Time to Serve" program on Saturday, Aug. 30.
Most of the students will be members of the newly arrived freshman Class of 2012, who started signing up for the mass volunteer effort on Saturday, Aug. 23, only a day after arriving on campus for "New Student Orientation" at Hope.
The students will be working in groups of five to 20 at approximately 40 sites from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Projects are scheduled throughout Holland as well as in Zeeland, and will range from sorting and cleaning at Goodwill Industries, to cleaning and other projects at the Critter Barn, to groundskeeping and cleaning at many area churches.
The "Time to Serve" program is designed to help new students learn about service while helping and getting to know their community and becoming better acquainted with one another. The project began in the fall of 2000 with 10 projects and about 100 participants, and had grown to 24 projects and 300 students a year later. In October 2001, "Time to Serve" 2000 received a 2001 Distinguished Service Award from Keep Michigan Beautiful Inc. during the group's annual conference.
Hope students volunteer in a variety of ways throughout the school year. In addition to "Time to Serve," three prominent efforts at the college are the "Relay for Life" for the American Cancer Society, the "Dance Marathon" charitable fund-raiser held on behalf of Helen DeVos Children's Hospital of Grand Rapids, and the spring break mission and service trip program, all of which involve hundreds of students annually.

Difficulty: Easy-moderate. The trails travel over fairly even terrain, though the east side of the North Loop travels up a steep hill.
How to get there: From Route 177 (Hinckley Ridge Road) in Blue Hill, turn onto Kingdom Road and drive about 1.5 miles to a small parking area on the left. The trail starts from the parking area and provides access to the North Loop and South Loop trails, starting at the North Loop. A third, smaller loop trail can be accessed by a parking area 0.2 mile farther down the Kingdom Road. And a small pull-off across the Mines Road from 40-15 Tennis provides access to the North and South Loop trails, starting at the South Loop.
Information:The 800-acre Kingdom Woods Conservation Area includes the undeveloped 50-acre Fourth Pond, the upper watershed of Carleton Stream, and a variety of freshwater wetland and upland habitats of spruce, fir, red maple, red oak and white pine. The land can be explored by 3.25 miles of trails maintained by the Blue Hill Heritage Trust.
The trust purchased Fourth Pond and 320 surrounding acres in 1998. Since then, the trust has acquired additional properties with donations and volunteer efforts so that Kingdom Woods now equals 800 acres.
"The purpose of this conservation effort is to protect wildlife habitat while providing an educational resource and opportunities for low-impact recreation," the trust states on their website.
Visitors can walk the trails for free during daylight hours. Dogs on a leash are welcome, but owners must clean up after them. Hikers should stay on marked trails and leave natural features as they find them. Parties of 10 or more should call the trust at 374-5118 for permission to visit.
The North Loop and South Loop are about 1 mile of trail each and are connected by a 0.5-mile connector trail. The west side of the North Loop travels close to Fourth Pond, and a short side trail leads to an area to sit by the shore; while the east side of the North Loop climbs a hill to a forest of white pine and other evergreen trees. The South Loop travels over much more even terrain. To the west of the North Loop and South Loop is a separate 0.6-mile loop trail that is accessible from a parking area on the Kingdom Road.
Hunting is among the activities allowed in Kingdom Woods, though hunters are required to request permission to hunt. Hikers should wear plenty of blaze orange during hunting seasons. To learn about hunting on the trust's land, visit bluehillheritagetrust.org/hunting-on-bhht-lands/.
The Blue Hill Heritage Trust owns several other pieces of land on which they maintain hiking trails for public use. For information, visit bluehillheritagetrust.org.
Personal note: While hiking through Kingdom Woods on a warm February afternoon, I took time to soak up the sun and search for wildlife. So you can imagine I was a little disappointed when I failed to see any animals during the 3-mile hike. I blame it on my loud ice cleats.
I had turned off the North Loop to hike back to the parking area when I heard a loud, high pitched bird call that I didn't recognize, though I'm sure many birders would. It sounded like the bird was near Fourth Pond, so I turned around and hiked back to the pond, imagining the bird must be a fairly large to make such a ruckus. Upon reaching the pond, I spied a flash of red high up in a dead tree. It was a pileated woodpecker.
It was a special experience for me to observe Maine's largest woodpecker (about the size of a crow) calling out in the late afternoon. Throughout the winter, I've seen my share of downy woodpeckers and hairy woodpeckers, but I've never seen a pileated woodpecker. After some research, I've concluded the bird was a male because he sported a red whisker stripe on the side of his face (which females don't have). The large bird, with the setting sun illuminating his tall red crown, was an impressive sight. But I don't think he was as happy to see me. I was able to snap just a few photos before he flew into the woods.
To hear a variety of pileated woodpecker calls, visit www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/pileated_woodpecker/sounds.

Ashland At Home (AAH) is neighbors helping neighbors live in their own homes and staying engaged in our community as long as possible. AAH is based on the "village" model that is serving tens of thousands of adults across the U.S. The model, developed by neighbors living in the Beacon Hill area of Boston, provides services to support members to continue living in their homes as they age and programs to add vitality to their lives.
I am very impressed with Ashland At Home — both for the meticulous, thoughtful planning that has gone into its design and also because I believe it is filling a void in the social structure of our community.

Today is my mom's birthday. She's the best. I'm glad she's my mom, and I'm glad we're so close. In October I went to Amherst to see her as a surprise. My roommate dates a friend of mine who lives down the street from my mom, I had the right days off and the friend was here visiting and I had a free ride with him back to Mass. We got to Amherst in the middle of the night, I stayed at his house then went to visit my mom at work the next day. She had no idea I was coming, she works at a college and I walked in and she looked up, thought I was a regular colege kid, looked back at her computer, then looked back at me and was so surprised! It was a lot of fun. She and I went to Wholefoods for lunch, then to Cook farm where I had gluten free homemade ice cream and ice cream cones! Then she went back to work and I hung out with some friends, then my friends and I went to my mom's house for dinner. She has a smoker, and we had smoked brisket. It was delicious and a lot of fun. The next day I had to leave, but we went to lunch before my train ride at a great, authentic, French restaurant called Chez Albert. They were really good about checking things to see if they were gluten-free, and we both got the duck confit with black lentils and a balsamic reduction. Look how delicious it looks! Also, I can't stop thinking about making membrillo, the quince paste to eat with cheese. We don't really sell quinces here, the jerks at the other Wholefoods in the city told Alex that it's some weird tropical fruit not grown in America that's hard to get and they can't sell, which is bullshit because look at this whole bowl that came from my mom's boyfriend Richards house:
Now we have them at my Wholefoods, but they're $3 each. That's a little out of my price range. But I smell them every day, they smell like drunk apples.
Anyway, that was the last time I saw my mom, it was fun and I love her, happy birthday mom!!!!!!!!

When I came across Teravolt's Laser Microscope, I decided that this was something I had to try. For his setup, he used a 250mW laser. While I don't have anything near that
dangerous cool, I do have a bunch of 5mW green lasers laying around. While the 5mW is incredibly bright in a dark room, when the beam is spread for 1mm to a 1 meter circle, the average brightness decreases by 1 million! I was a little concerned that it wouldn't be strong enough, but there's only one way to find out.

Vortlach for Parshas Haazinuד׳ תשרי תשע״א - September 11th, 2010
יערף כמטר לקחי
ר' שמחה בונם מפשיסכה notes that תורה is compared to the rain; just like there is no visible effect from the rain when it falls, but only afterwards when plants sprout and begin to grow, so too the effects from learning תורה are often not immediately visible, but only appear after some time.
שיחת לו לא בניו מומם דור עקש ופתלתל
The שאר בת רבים notes that there are many people who are personally observant, and are comfortable with this. Nevertheless, they want their children to follow in the path of תורה and עבודת ה.
However, this is quite hypocritical. For their Father in Heaven asks them to follow the proper path, and yet they rebel. Despite this, they expect their children to listen to them!
In truth, the only thing that will happen is that their children, just like they themselves, will not be religious, but will expect their children to become religious.
וישמן ישרון ויבעט
The חידושי הרי"ם notes that the word used here is ישרון, which is generally associated with a higher spiritual level than just ישראל. Nevertheless, in the presence of גאווה, they are at risk as well.
Vortlach for Parshas Nitzavim / Vayelechכ״ו אלול תש״ע - September 4th, 2010
הנסתרות לה' אלקינו והנגלות לנו ולבנינו עד עולם לעשות את כל דברי התורה הזאת
The כתב סופר sees these two categories as referring to the two possible times for משיח to come. The hidden one is the fixed date, which is unknown. The revealed one is the date if and when בני ישראל will be חוזר בתשובה, as the פסוק says, "היום אם בקולי תשמעו." While the first is independent of our actions, the second is only if we are follow "את כל דברי התורה הזאת"
את החיים ואת הטוב את המות ואת הרע
The משך חכמה points out that in פרשת ראה, it just said ברכה וקללה, but never mentioned .חיים ומות He explains that this is because earlier, the oppurtunity for תשובה had not yet been presented. If a person fails to repent for an עבירה, this worse than the original עבירה (cf שערי תשובה). As such, the עבירה itself is the קללה and the lack of תשובה is the מוות.
ובחרת בחיים למען תחיה
The בכורי אביב explains the repetition as a reminder that the goal is not merely to enjoy a long life, but a meaningful one.
ויקרא משה ליהושע ויאמר אליו לעיני כל ישראל חזק ואמץ
The משך חכמה writes that the words לעיני כל ישראל are connected, via the טעמי המקרא, to חזק ואמץ. Up until this point, יהושע's role had been that of משה's servant, and he was most known for his humility in front of his teacher. As the new מנהיג, he would need to, publicly, be strong and certain, in order to be able to effectively lead כלל ישראל.

New Hebrew Dates (2.0) released!י״ב תמוז תש״ע - June 24th, 2010
When it rains, it pours...
I just rewrote most of HebrewDates. The new version is 2.0.0, and is available at the Hebrew Dates release page.
There's basically no reason to use yesterday's 1.0.4 release.
New features:
- Complete rewrite of the date identification; much more reliable
- Code actually looks slightly sane now. I'm no longer embarrassed for someone to look at it (although it's not great...)
- New
the_hebrew_date()APIs, which can be used in any theme. The interception of the other calls, while much more robust now, still is not the ideal
Please let me know if there are any bugs. Archives should work, and some weird date formats should also be better (I no longer rely on PHP's strtotime, but have my own parsing logic).

How do I use FAB?
Mix two to
eight parts liquid
with one part FAB. (one cup of FAB per quart of liquid, recommended)
Customize your mixture and experiment!
Stir well with moderate agitation until the mixture begins to thicken slightly.
Try a variety of liquids like wine, apple juice, balsamic vinegar for your own custom blend.
slowly, with at least 10% of
the total weight of the raw meat, about 2 oz. per pound.
Thinner cuts (about an inch or so) can marinate directly as a soak, without injection.
Injection technique is important--please refer to our how-to guide for injecting bbq
Use only
injectors with holes that inject sideways, as opposed to
injectors that only have a single hole at the tip.
Inject slowly, so the meat can absorb the mixture.
Injections should be done at about two to three inch intervals throughout the meat surface, or you may use a checkerboard pattern.
Allow to
marinate at least 4-6 hours under refrigeration, turning
occasionally to assist in even distribution.
Use your vacuum sealer or tumbler for faster action.
Cook at 220 F. or higher, depending on what you are preparing, until an internal temperature of at least 160 F. is reached.
Allow meat juices to equalize for about one half hour (or more) after cooking is finished and prior to slicing.
While your mileage may vary, one pound of FAB is enough for about 3-4 briskets or up to 10 racks of ribs.
FAB can be injected into large cuts of meat like ribs and brisket, but it can also be used to soak into smaller cuts like chicken wings or flank steak. FAB will penetrate about an inch into a cut of meat, so the choice is yours. To get excellent results, inject FAB about every inch with an injector that has multiple holes on each side along the length of the syringe, like our Monster Marinade Injector, and avoid injectors that only have a single hole at the tip—they will not give sufficient distribution of FAB. Some of our customers even use tumblers to get the best, most even distribution. Give it a try and see which method achieves the results that work best for you.
FAB works a little magic
When an animal is alive, certain compounds keep the muscles tender and allows them to retain fluids within the meat. When the animal is slaughtered and butchered, these compounds break down—which is why freshness is so important. The same thing happens when animals grow faster than they should, like those six-week-old chickens. FAB returns these compounds to meat, in effect, reversing the process. Some companies simply pump water into meat to make it heavier when you but it, but this disappears when cooking. By returning natural compounds to the meat, FAB locks in natural juices throughout the cooking process. FAB makes it juicier and more tender.
What FAB is not
FAB does not add or change the flavor profile or your rubs or seasonings. It's not a rub or a spice. That is, it only enhances the flavor of meat, a savory sensation, or what the Japanese call "umami". FAB makes it better, not different.
Since FAB has no spices or flavor systems, feel free to add your favorite ginger vinaigrette or apple vinegar and garlic marinade—whatever secret recipe works best for you. FAB enhances the flavor of meat, but you can add even more with your own rubs and marinades...or try one of our tried and true products in the "flavorings" section of our store.
Want even more flavor?
Since FAB only enhances the natural flavor of your meats, feel free to experiment with your own flavor systems and add your individual style. Try apple juice instead of water, add spice blends or even one of our rubs. FAB works well with curing products, too, like Morton's Sugar Cure. You can make your own Canadian Bacon or Corned Beef in a snap. Of course, nothing brings out the best in FAB like BBQ, and our customers have had top finishes in a number of competitions in all major categories.
FAB makes it better
FAB has no added salt, but just as it makes meat taste meatier, it also makes salt taste saltier. This is a good thing! You can reduce the amount of salt and added sodium that you would normally use in your rubs or at the table. FAB makes your BBQ taste better with less salt.
* Please note that FAB free has no added MSG, but it contains ingredients (HSP, autolyzed yeast extract, for example) that have naturally occurring glutamates, as do almost all food proteins. It is simply not possible to formulate a meat enhancer like FAB without glutamates. That would be akin to making hamburgers without using any protein. If you are concerned about MSG, please contact us.
FAB is also available at FireCraft.com and TastyLicks BBQ Supply.

Hear from the stars and crew of Tron Legacy. The executive producers of Fringe and The Walking Dead explain why there really is nothing to worry about, whatever you might have heard. New trailer for I Am Number Four. Spoilerage!
Tron Legacy
Here's some interviews with stars Jeff Bridges and Olivia Wilde, as well as some of the technical crew: [Tech Crunch]
I Am Number Four
A new trailer is out for the young adult science fiction movie about an alien hiding among us. There's also a poster: [Wired] Click to view
Iron Sky
Ready or not, the Finnish project about Nazis hiding on the Moon and invading Earth in 2018 that grew from fan-financed trailers to actual full-blown movie, has officially entered production. Here's a photo to get you ready for what is either the most awesome or most spectacularly ill-conceived film in history - I doubt there's much middle ground. [Wired]
Mars Needs Moms
Here's the trailer for the upcoming Disney animated movie: [Film School Rejects]
Justin Timberlake's immortality thriller has a release date: September 30, 2011. Which, incidentally, is only two weeks after the intensely necessary sequel Piranha 3DD, so plan your September 2011 accordingly. [Comingsoon.net]
The Vampire Chronicles
Author Anne Rice is still hoping for a new movie adaptation of her Lestat stories to come together, and she's hopeful it eventually will:
"I hope there will be, but I don't have anything firm to report. A lot of interest, a lot of talk. The rights are all mine; they don't belong to a studio anymore, they belong to me. It's been a long struggle, but we have a lot of interest and there's a lot of talks going on, so we'll see. I'm hoping. I'm hoping that I will have something to announce soon."
Doctor Who
The BBC has released a ton of new info on "A Christmas Carol." Here's the full synopsis:
It's the deepest part of winter, the exact midpoint, Christmas Eve – halfway out of the dark. Amy and Rory are trapped on a stricken space liner that's plummeting through banks of thick icy fog to the surface of the planet below. Only one man has the power to save them; only one man is in possession of a machine that can clear the fog and let them land safely. That man is Kazran Sardick, a rich but lonely old miser who rules Sardicktown with a sky-mast of iron. The Doctor's only chance of rescuing the ship's four thousand passengers is to save Kazran's soul and show him that life is worth living. For this he needs to go back, way back, to when Kazran was a boy with a life full of promise. But can the Doctor put a song in Kazran's heart and love in his life, in time for Christmas? Can he bring him out of the dark?
Matt Smith explained why he's excited:
I've always wanted to be part of the Christmas Doctor Who experience, and I think this is certainly one of the most Christmassy and inventive Doctor Who stories so far. Steven just keeps getting even more imaginative and the great thing about this episode is that when Doctor Who and Christmas are put together you combine the spirit of both those things; it's a fun old yarn and the Doctor simply loves Christmas.
There's more at the link, including rather unsurprising confirmation from costar Katherine Jenkins, who is a professional singer and first-time actress, that she will be singing in the special. [BBC Press Office]
Marshall Lancaster, who is best known as Chris Skelton on Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes, will reportedly play the character Buzzer in episodes 5 and 6, which are being written by Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes creator Matthew Graham. You know, between these two, John Simm as the Master, and all the other LOM creative people coming over to Doctor Who, my dream of a Philip Glenister appearance is coming dangerously close to coming true. I'm sorry, but my life just won't be complete until Gene Hunt barges his way into the TARDIS. [Doctor Who News Page]
Meanwhile, this story apparently got a bit garbled, but director Peter Hoar was originally listed as directing an hour-long Easter special to air in 2011 - which seems very weird, considering that's just about when the show is starting up. Shortly thereafter, the listing was updated to say he's directing a single episode for the 2011 series, so he's likely helming one of the episodes in the second half of the series. [Doctor Who News Page]
The Walking Dead
Executive producer and comics creator Robert Kirkman commented on the somewhat bizarre reports about the entire writing staff being fired. He said the story was basically false, it reflected unfairly on showrunner Frank Darabont, and that the only departure was that of Charles 'Chic' Eglee. Kirkman explained why this happened:
"Chic Eglee is a high-level television writer. He was brought onto The Walking Dead with the idea that Frank was going to work on the first season and then go off and do movies. Chic didn't want to be second-in-command on a show when he's used to being a top dog, and so he decided to go off and do something else, which is something that happens and is not a big deal."
Kirkman did leave open the distinct possibility that this story might eventually be true, and that Darabont is seriously considering the freelance model:
It's a little premature to be nailing down. I don't know if it's going to be a freelance situation or if we're going to have writers in a writers' room. That's something that's being worked on now. Everybody knows what they're doing. AMC has done a few television shows before, and Frank Darabont is a professional. Whatever is decided, I don't think it will affect the show one way or another."
[TV Guide]
Show star Andrew Lincoln speculated on whether Sheriff Grimes will find out about Shane and Lori's affair:
"Will he ever find out? That's an option. There are many ways of dealing with a painful situation. I think denial is a powerful human attribute. I've used it quite well many times in my life. The obvious way to go would be to go for conflict, but I don't necessarily think we're in an obvious show. I think the beauty in the way it's being played is that it's a three-way love affair. They all love each other. I don't necessarily think Rick is that aware as yet of an indiscretion. For me it's a much simpler journey. Obviously in season two it could get more complicated and more satisfying to play. But I wouldn't want to second guess what Frank [Darabont] is going to do."
He also offered this cryptic warning about the finale:
"I would just say as always with this show, don't get too comfortable. Things are not as they seem."
Executive producer Jeff Pinkner argues that the move to Friday nights really isn't a bad thing for the show, and certainly not a sign that it's on the way out:
"From the inside, you know when you are losing support from your network and studio partners. For us it has been just the opposite. Our show has developed a devoted, rabid fan base. Our critical praise has never been higher. And our fan support has never been more passionate. If we can translate that to Friday nights, which has much lower expectations, we will be around for a good long time."
Here's a sneak peek for the next episode, "Caged Heat":
Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Here's a synopsis and sneak peek for tonight's episode, "Pursuit of Peace":
Senators Padmé Amidala, Bail Organa and Onaconda Farr attempt to rally the senate against a bill that would appropriate funds for millions of new clone troops – with disastrous financial consequences for the Republic. Their opposition to the measure, however, makes them targets for intimidation and attack.
And a look ahead at what lies ahead in January, including Count Dooku's attempt to kill Ventriss:

"Just to let you know I have just purchased my first pair of MBTs. I have suffered chronic back pain after an accident 4 years ago and was destined to be on strong analgesics for life. As I've always been fit in the past and never one to take medication over the years this was like a life sentence for me. So I took to the internet to find an alternative solution Ie maybe trainers of some sort (cos I always wore flat shoes and wondered if this was the problem). The pain in my lower back and legs at the end of each day were always painful . Thanks so much MBT at last I have found the happy solution to the above problems in your footwear. Bliss!!!!"

echocam, artvamp.com, 2000
Maybe half of being a camgirl was talking about being a camgirl – not just turning a webcam on yourself and by extension your life, but documenting how your life changed from having turned a webcam on it. We were only doing this for a little while, from sometime in the late 1990's until about whenever mobile phone cameras became commonplace (let's say until the early 2000's.) Apple may also have had a hand in killing the camgirl, packaging webcams into the shells of our laptops. By extension our webcams were made less unusual, less intimate, and much less urgent. Though the golden years of camgirls were brief, they coincided with the rise of the web itself.

In 1997, a Minneapolis-based electronic pop musician named Ana Voog launched what she called "the internet's first 24/7 art/life cam," which proved to also be its longest running...

Faculty Resources
Careers and Majors
Evaluating potential courses, majors, and careers is an essential element of the University Experience course. University Experience courses include readings, class sessions, and assignments designed to assist students in these areas. All freshmen are advised by a faculty member or advisor in their major department or, if Exploratory/Undeclared, by the Academic Advising & Retention Center (AARC). Everyone who teaches the course can serve as a secondary advisor to their students. Instructors help students to understand the purpose of general education and the basic requirements that students have to complete. Helping students to be aware of university policies, advising practices, major options, and registration deadlines is an important part of the course. The Undergraduate Catalog, the Schedule Bulletin, the Office of the Registrar, and the AARC are the best sources of information. In the fall, first year students generally begin registering for classes for the spring semester during the first week of November.
Civic Engagement/Service Learning
Educated citizens have a responsibility to give back to the university and community. Your class may have the opportunity to mentor a girl scout troop, participate in a food drive, work for Habitat for Humanity, or engage in other kinds of activities designed to broaden your knowledge of the campus and community, develop new skills in a real world setting, contribute to society, interact with others who may be different or learn about the world from a new perspective. A core value of WKU is to produce students who are engaged and able to succeed in a global society.
Instructor Resource Manual
Ashley Chance Fox compiled a 179 page Instructor Resource Manual for the University Experience course. The manual provides information and some of the best activities used by experienced teachers of the course including, but not limited to: teaching techniques; the history of Western Kentucky University; campus technology; academic skills, time management; careers; and health and wellness. Many other resources are included as well. Your reactions to the contents of this manual are encouraged, and you are welcome to submit items for consideration for the next edition.
The manual is available free of charge to all instructors of the course. Please contact the Department of Interdisciplinary Studies to obtain a copy.
Sample Syllabus
The syllabi of previous instructors who have taught the course are available on-line. You can access these syllabi by using "Schedule Bulletin."
To access Schedule Bulletin:
1) Open internet explorer, go to the Western homepage (www.wku.edu).
2) Go to Quick Links; click on Schedule Bulletin.
3) Select past term, and click on "submit term."
4) Highlight University Experience under "by subject."
5) Select campus.
6) Click on "show me classes."
7) Click on the syllabus next to the instructor you choose to obtain a PDF file.
S.I.T.E. Evaluations
Student Input to Teaching Effectiveness (S.I.T.E.) evaluations are conducted for all sections of the University Experience course. Near the end of the semester, SITE evaluation packets are made available online. You will receive an email with instructions on how to assist students in accessing course evaluations. Please contact the departmental office at 745-7007 if you have further questions.
Teaching Qualifications
University Experience instructors hold at least a master's degree with a concentration of at 18 hours or more hours in a relevant discipline. A few exceptional graduate students with a minimum of 18 hours of graduate work completed are allowed to teach the course. Instructors are committed to first-year students and have taken 12 hours of professional development related to teaching the course. For information about about becoming a University Experience instructor, please contact the University Experience Office at 270-745-7007.
Text Book
The University Experience textbook is a collection of electronic materials available under the "UE Textbook and Articles" section of the "Library Skills Master Course" on Blackboard. All UE instructors and students are automatically enrolled in this course and have access to the textbook and suggested readings.
Topnet is a valuable information portal. Obtaining the class list, posting a syllabus, e-mailing the class, overriding registration restrictions, and posting final grades are among the many things that faculty can do on Topnet. To access Topnet:
- Go to Western's homepage (www.wku.edu).
- Go to quicklinks and select Topnet.
- Click on Topnet login.
- Enter identification number and password.

Bipartisan Unity on Mass Incarceration: Opportunity or Sidetrack for Movement Building?
From Truth Out / By James Kilgore
Mass incarceration continues to trend. As Heather Thompson, professor of history at the University of Michigan and leading scholar on the Attica prison rebellion, told Truthout, "Three years ago to talk about incarceration was like you were talking Latin." No more.
The past year has offered us a cavalcade of conferences, webinars, nonprofit startups, media events, potential and actual legislation along with feel-good moments where everyone from Rand Paul to Eric Holder jumped on the bandwagon of criminal "justice" reform. While this has been a process, two events do stand out.
The first was the extravagant Bipartisan Summit on Criminal Justice Reform in Washington, DC, in March. The unlikely collection of sponsors included the Koch brothers, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), and Van Jones' nonprofit #cut50 (as in reduce the incarcerated population by 50 percent in 10 years). Additional support came from partnering organizations like the Drug Policy Alliance, the Sentencing Project and the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC).
The summit, emceed by Jones, brought together an array of superstar speakers from various parts of the political spectrum: Newt Gingrich; conservative Georgia governor Nathan Deal; former prisoner turned writer, entrepreneur and activist Shaka Senghor;Orange Is the New Black author Piper Kerman and singer John Forté, who played his guitar and spoke about his own incarceration. In the audience dozens of state and federal elected officials joined well-known researchers and activists who were fighting mass incarceration long before Charles Koch knew what a mandatory minimum was. Since this summit, the Koch brothers have built the event out into a roadshow, holding smaller versions in Ohio, Florida, Georgia and Illinois. (more…)

This morning when I was on the road, waiting for the traffic light to turn green, I saw this 40++ year old man on the road with a paper that says "I'm going back to China tomorrow." and a big bag with a butterfly version of the flip flap thingy(the one in the picture).
He was actually going through every cars, hoping that people would donate him some money by buying his stuff.
For me, as I see people like these, I treat them as a fate, and I'd give, regardless that it's a scam or what sort(but depends on how that person's like. If he's like a youngster I'd probably ignore it). So as he came to my car, he was giving the peace sign, which I assumed he was saying RM20. But when I asked, he actually wanted only RM2! Wtf! Broken or not RM2 is damn cheap can? How can he go back?
He then took out 2 pink purses, hoping that I would spare him a few more ringgit and he had no use for it. So I just paid him RM10.
Now I kinda regret taking the purse, I should've just give him the money without taking it. =\ I have no use for it anyways, and he could've sell it for more money. I even have the damn urge to give him back. Damn guilty now.
Oh well.
P/S: Btw if you're wondering, I'm not giving myself up. I'm still wanting to be close to him. As a friend's ok for me. =)

Okay, the touchdown/safety just given up by the Packers was one of the WORST play calls I've ever seen. A slow developing outside run inside the one. Ugh. What a way to reward a great defensive stand.

Dear Em,
Through some misunderstanding I have only received four of these (pictures). They were taken for the War Dept. and if you look very close you will see my number which is #300. Sorry I can't send more so that some of the rest can't have any. The inspection was put off until tomorrow on account of this rain.
Best wishes for all
P.S. Our time for going home looks very dark to date.

El Presidente Chavez says he is happy Venezuelan driver Milka Duno and Citgo will run the Indy 500, even though no gasoline will be involved. The surprise is that Al Gore or any other American politician didn't beat El Presidente to this
aggrandizement political punch, considering Indy cars have been running on alternative fuel of the alcohol kind since the '60s. This year the traditional methanol has been replaced by a home-brewed ethanol special corn blend. Milk will still be served to the winner on Sunday, who El Presidente says will be Milka.

Police charge grandfather in Stemmers Run gun incident
School communities remain on edge after gun incidents

Court documents obtained by WBAL-TV 11 News detail the circumstances of Tuesday's gun incident at a Baltimore County middle school and how the student got the weapon. A 13-year-old student brought a .25-caliber Galesi semi-automatic handgun to Stemmers Run Middle School in Essex. County Police Chief Jim Johnson said the gun was small enough to fit inside the palm of a hand.
The court documents describe in greater detail what investigators believe transpired late Tuesday morning when the student brandished the gun in class and a teacher diffused a dangerous situation. The documents state that the teacher, identified as Ms. Fuchs, noticed the student wasn't working on his assignment.
According to the court documents, Fuchs then approached the student and saw the student point a gun at her from about 3-4 feet away. Ms. Fuchs told the boy to put the gun down and told another student to get another teacher, the court documents state.
"At that point, the student pointed the gun at rows of students closest to the door and no one got out of their seats," the court document reads. "The student raised the gun to his own head at that point and Ms. Fuchs knocked the gun out of his hand and onto the floor."
The court document corroborates what officials said Tuesday afternoon that the gun's magazine broke, and pieces of it fell apart. A school resource officer detained the student, who was taken to the Essex police precinct, where the boy told police that he took the handgun from his grandfather's possession, according to the court documents.
The documents say the boy told police he knew where to get the gun because he saw his grandfather, Norman James Gatewood, put the gun between his mattress and box spring. The boy claimed the gun had a magazine containing bullets and that he chambered a round by moving the slide atop the gun, the court documents indicated.
Gatewood confirmed that the gun was stored in his bed, but he told police that the magazine was not loaded into the handgun, the court documents state. Instead, according to the court documents, Gatewood said the magazine and gun were placed next to each other inside the bed.
"Gatewood told detectives that he knew he should have had the gun locked up," the court documents state.
Police charged Gatewood with firearms access by minors, as it's illegal to keep a gun unsecured with minors present. The charge carries a $1,000 fine, if convicted.
Gatewood also admitted to owning a second gun -- a Ruger MKII .22-caliber handgun -- that is stored in a lockbox.
Parents, students and staff at schools in Baltimore County remain on edge after the district's second gun-related incident in three weeks. Many parents said Wednesday that they support a plan to issue handheld metal detectors to Baltimore County school resource police officers to scan for guns or other weapons.
"I think it would be a good, useful thing to do to keep everybody safe," said Keon Jackson, a parent.
Police said the devices will be used only in cases in which there is probable cause to believe a crime is about to take place.
"I think it should have been in effect from the beginning. I think it's an awesome idea. A lot of what's going on would be diverted if there was a stronger (security) presence," said Charissa Stumpf, a parent.
"It's very sad that it has come to this, but the safety of our children should be the top priority everywhere. You know? They don't hesitate to put speed cameras in front of schools, but yet kids are bringing handguns to school," said Amy Thomas, a parent.
Dallas Dance, the county's new schools superintendent, said that while he supports extra security measures like metal detectors, he'll continue to work on a plan of his own.
"I've not said 'yes,' I've not said 'no' to metal detectors. What I've said, though, is that there have been several school incidents around our country where metal detectors have been in place and have not prevented an incident," Dance said.
Some Essex parents said they've already seen the benefits of metal detectors at their schools.
"I definitely know from experience that nobody brought guns and stuff to school. We never had this problem. And I went to a city school, not a county school," said Brittany Roby, a parent.
Besides increased security, school officials said they're committed to ensuring teachers and administrators are trained to deal with similar potentially dangerous incidents.

Unlike bereavement training courses you may have seen, the Grief Recovery Method offers a structured programme irrespective of the nature of the loss.

"The training provides a wonderful toolbox that I can share with others. I find it amazing how much support and guidance I get" Imke Klie, Interfaith Minister & Celebrant
"I am so delighted to have done this programme as it has definitely enhanced my business and more importantly, The Grief Recovery Method has improved the emotional well being of my clients…"
Emer Hennelly, Galway, Ireland Psychotherapist & Counsellor
This grief training encompasses the principles and actions developed over the past 40 years by John W. James and Russell Friedman, the founders of The Grief Recovery Institute®, and co-authors of The Grief Recovery® Handbook and When Children Grieve.
Grief is Not an Intellectual Problem
The uniqueness of the programme lies in the essential idea that grief is the normal and natural emotional reaction to loss. However despite grief being an emotional issue most of the advice out there for grievers is aimed at their intellects rather than their hearts.
Learn through Personal Experience
The programme combines both discussion and experiential components. A vital part of the programme is that you experience the Grief Recovery Method for yourself.
"I feel I have been given a gift, a gift available to all of us once we've been shown the simple steps to take to heal ourselves after the many losses we suffer and put us back in the driving seat of our lives. I feel privileged and grateful for the knowledge I have received to allow me to help others so effectively."
Lianna Champ, Funeral Director, Lancashire UK
Help Others Immediately
As soon as you have completed the programme you will have all the tools you need to help grievers in a group format or on a one –one basis. While it isn't possible to become expert in 4 days you will have the skills, lesson materials and support you need to be successful. In addition to the Group programme and One to One formats you'll also be qualified to run a group for adults designed to teach them how to help their children deal with loss.
These formats aren't support groups or drop in facilities they are structured lessons in the Grief Recovery Method, support from us is available for as long as you need it – for no extra charge – ever.
Imke Klie, Interfaith Minister, Germany
"The training provides a wonderful toolbox that I can share with others. The training is transformative and essential; it is compulsory for everybody who wants to help grievers. Being a Grief Recovery Specialist I find it amazing how much support and guidance I get"
We Will Refer Grievers To You
No matter how people find us, whether through this site or the parent site in the US if they need a Grief Recovery Specialist and they live in your area we'll refer them to you. As soon as you're up and running the programmes we'll pass any enquiries along.
You Don't Need A Degree To Help Grieving People
Because the Grief Recovery Method employs simple action based steps this educational programme needs you only to be a good communicator and have a willingness to help. There are thousands of Certified Grief Recovery Specialists around the world from a wide range of background.
Teachers & Educators
We can't think of anywhere more important to teach the correct actions to recover from grief than in schools yet this is a topic rarely addressed head on in the education sector. While it is true that some schools may have someone responsible for pastoral care the reality is that all teachers have to deal with the fall out of unresolved grief everyday.
No matter whether 5 or 50 years of age the most common grief symptom is the reduced ability to concentrate and is probably the biggest cause of anti-social behaviour in the classroom. When you take into account not just grief from bereavement of a family member or pet but also the loss of safety that follows separation, divorce, house move, school change, loss of friends, exam failure, abuse and many more, how many children or adults do you know that aren't grieving in some way?
Teachers we've trained agree that the programmes created by The Grief Recovery Institute are an invaluable resource that should be used much more widely in schools and colleges. By qualifying as a Grief Recovery Specialist you will become able to teach the 4 programmes to others. Click to find out more about dates and locations, orcall for more information .
Mental Health Professionals
Many professionals discover that even when their clients achieve an intellectual "understanding" of their grief, or even emotional "acceptance" of their losses, they are not necessarily equipped to re-enter the mainstream of their lives.
The Grief Recovery Method Certification training program adds completion methods to the discoveries unearthed by clients with the aid of their therapist or counsellor. Many professionals believe that the Grief Recovery Method is the missing link for completing those discoveries, as well as a major adjunct to effective ongoing therapy.
The Grief Recovery Method Certification Training is recognised by many professional bodies around the world. In the UK the course has been Quality Checked by the National Counselling Society.
Perhaps more than any other professional group, the clergy are most likely to be involved when a family has experienced the death of a loved one. And, in today's world, there is more and more demand that the Vicar, Priest, Imam or Rabbi, be able to address the painful emotions attached to divorce and other losses.
We often ask our friends in the clergy how often they get this call: "Hi, Father John, I'm just calling to say that everything is great with my family and at work, and my faith in the Lord is comforting." This is always greeted with a laugh and this reply, "Most calls are about marital struggles, trouble with the children, or a breach of faith in God." All of those, including the breach of faith, are clearly "loss" issues, which can benefit from the principles and actions of the Grief Recovery Method® regardless of which faith is involved.
"I feel that the Grief Recovery training is a useful tool for any professional dealing with loss and trauma. It gives insight not only into how grief affects different people, but also into the coping strategies they use in a desperate attempt to find normality again. The fact that it then enables you to assist the griever to reach completion by recognising the issues needing to be dealt with, and then taking the steps to resolve them is surely beyond price!"
David Chantler, Interfaith Minister, Bucks
"Loss" Professionals
Those in the funeral and cemetery business, hospice and palliative care workers, divorce lawyers, vets and others who regularly face grieving people when their pain is white hot will find the Grief Recovery techniques invaluable at the front line and a timely add on to their services.
People Who Have Lives Altered by Loss:
Grief, and the life altering emotions attached to it, tends to create a heightened awareness of the value of life. Many people who have experienced major devastating losses, feel compelled to help others.
The Grief Recovery® Certification provides the platform upon which to follow the impulse and desire to help others safely and effectively.
Lilieth Wade Bedfordshire
"You may feel apprehensive, fearful because you don't know what to expect. Make the first step to get there. By the time you complete the course you will be enlightened and your life will be transformed"

Frequently Asked Questions
Please click on a question to read more
We've found that the Grief Recovery concepts work best in a group format. Grievers tend to isolate and groups are an excellent way to end that inclination. Having said that there are plenty of people that can't or won't attend a group which is why we also teach you how to deliver the programme in a One to One format.
You can begin straight away. In fact we actively encourage you to get going as soon as possible while the material is still fresh in your mind and to cement it in place through practice. To that end, we strongly suggest that you do a "practice" group very soon after completing the Training. Don't forget you can call on Grief Recovery (UK) every step of the way for help as needed.
Grief is an emotion. When we grieve our hearts feel broken. However most traditional methods use an intellectual or psychological approach to try to solve the problem when actually there's nothing wrong with a grievers head!

Once you have paid for your Certification course no further fees are payable.
No. Since grief is the normal and natural reaction to loss and since the Grief Recovery® formats are educational programmes, all that are required, is a loving heart and a genuine desire to help grieving people. Many of our certified personnel are licensed mental health professionals, and many come from other areas, such as the funeral and cemetery industries and the clergy. Those who are not in the mental health arena often create a referral list of mental health professionals in their community for situations that are outside the range of the Grief Recovery Method®. Many therapists refer clients to our certified people who are not mental health professionals. These therapists perceive wonderful changes in their clients' ability to move forward after achieving completion in the Group or One to One programmes.
Yes. A long term license and service agreement allows you to affiliate with the Institute and the intellectual properties protected by copyright law. Since it is not a franchise agreement, any monies you make as the result of providing Grief Recovery services to the public, belong to you. Grief Recovery (UK) only gets the fee you pay for the training.
No, once you have the Certification you have the skills you need to run the Grief Recovery Programmes. However we do recommend you do the Certification training for a second time within the first year or two as a refresher but this is not compulsory. To make this easier we offer the training at a significant discount to all Certified Grief Recovery Specialists.
There is no franchise agreement and we make no claims about how much money you can earn working as a Grief Recovery Specialist. You are free to determine your own scale of charges although you may find it helpful to check what others are charging. You may even choose not to charge, the choice is yours.

Every now and then we see a requirement from customers who specify that a snapshot of the entire repository for the website be maintained on a deployment or on a daily basis in order to enable a audit of the entire site at a given point in time, or to allow a rollback of the entire site at a given point in time.
The versioning system within Alfresco's core repository does not natively support snapshots. While it is possible to model this capability within the system through custom coding, the solutions tend to be complex while the demand for the functionality remains low. In any technical solution it is important to keep things as simple as possible. Whenever you run into a narrow requirement that threatens to complicate your systems you need to take a step back and determine:
- Is the requirement is truly necessary?
- Can the requirement can be changed slightly to work better with the existing technology?
- If the requirement is necessary, can you can integrate with a 3rd party that solves the problem directly without complicating the overall solution?
In our example we are left with the third option. Given this, the first question is: are there any existing, robust, affordable solutions for maintaining snapshots of an entire collection of "assets" that already exists and can be cleanly integrated?
The answer is "Yes." Snapshot capabilities while not very common in web content management systems are extremely common in source code control systems like SVN, Git and others. All of these off the shelf source control systems are extremely robust and are free open source platforms.
Following the idea that we're going to integrate with an existing source control system to meet the snapshot requirement, the second question is: can our WCM environment represent all content and metadata as files?
Again, with Crafter WEM the answer is yes. All content and metadata are represented as XML files or raw native formats such as images, rich documents, videos etc.
Our third question is obviously: how does the integration work?
Let's review our business and technical requirements:
- We want a snapshot of content that went LIVE on our site on either a deployment OR daily basis.
- We need to be able to audit the entire site at a given point-in-time if an investigation is required (by law or organizational policy)
- We want a integration with a source control system that does not complicate our overall WCM software and solution.
- Our solution must cover all content and metadata
Now let's review a potential solution for these requirements.
Getting published content in to the source control system
Because Crafter WEM is a decoupled system where the authoring and delivery system are independent systems separated by an approval process, and a deployment, multi-channel, multi-endpoint deployment is a natural part of the architecture. As you can see in the illustration above, we have a typical deployment to our web infrastructure in the DMZ and we also have a deployment agent inside our corporate firewall, which will put content and metadata in a disk location managed by SVN, Git, or some other source control management system. All metadata and content can be deployed to the source control endpoint.
Delivering content and metadata to the source control system is a simple and robust solution.
Creating a snapshot
To create a snapshot we must check-in (AKA commit) to the source control system.
If we want to create a snapshot on every single deployment we can use a simple callback in our deployment target configuration to perform a check in via a command line operation.
Code Listing 1:
The configuration below demonstrates how to invoke a command line operation from the deployment agent after content has been received.
<beans xsi:schemaLocation="..."> <bean id="MyTarget" init-method="register"> <property name="name"><value>sample</value></property> <property name="manager" ref="TargetManager"/><property name="postProcessors"> <list><ref bean="commitSiteOnDeploy"/></list> </property> <property name="params"> <map> <entry key="root"><value>target/sample</value></entry><entry key="contentFolder"><value>content</value></entry> <entry key="metadataFolder"><value>meta-data</value></entry> </map> </property> </bean> <bean id="commitSiteOnDeploy"> <property name="command" value="svn "/> <property name="arguments"> <map> <entry key="ci" value="PATH TO DEPLOYMENT"/> </map> </property> </bean> </beans>
However, if we want to commit a daily (or any time-based snapshot) we can accomplish this with a simple operating system based scheduled task that performs the check in via a command line operation.
Reviewing a snapshot for audit
Reviewing a snapshot in the event of an audit is as simple as a check out of the particular version from the snapshot repository and launching a Crafter Engine instance on top of the checked out content.
Reverting our WCM environment to a particular version
Reversion of our entire site would require the following steps
- Check out the particular version
- Either create a new WEM project based on the check-out content and re-deploy to your targets
- OR import the checked out site in to your existing WEM project and then deploy to your targets. Take care to analyze your deployment history for deletes as these will need to be managed if you choose to revert over top of your existing project.
Performing Diff Operations
It's possible to perform a diff operation between versions at any time. Almost all modern source control repositories support version dif functionality.
If you wish to compare the head of your repository with a particular version you can take the following steps:
- Check out the trunk of your snapshot repository
- Copy your preview directory in to your snapshot repository check-out
- Use source control repository to perform diff operation.
Repository snapshots are an important requirement for a small number of organizations. Crafter WEM is able to support these requirements with simple, robust integrations through its deployment architecture and readily available, affordable source control systems.

Located at 400 W. 4th Street in Santa Ana, CA., El Catrin provides haircuts and straight razor shaves in a historic setting with an old school feel to it. The late 1800's building isn't the only reason for that. Owner Carlos "Exit" Landeros is a member of the Viejitos OC chapter, and his goal was to create an atmosphere that harkened back to the days where men were men and they greeted each other with eye contact and a firm handshake. A former Navy man who relocated from San Diego, Carlos opened up the shop two years ago with the help of his friends and club members.
By word of mouth, we heard about his straight razor shave and other than seeing that in cartoons as a kid; I didn't think those places still existed, so we had to check it out for ourselves. Walking into the establishment, there was no doubt that the shop was "Konnected "to the Lowrider scene with the rides parked out in front and the old school memorabilia hanging from the walls. Once my turn came up, I made my way upstairs and sat in a 50's style barber chair to begin what would later be a tradition for me. From seeing a straight razor shave on tv, I thought I knew what to expect but I really had no idea. The straight razor shave began with having hot lather massaged on and placing a hot towel over my face before applying a cool lubricant for that smoother shave. Once I was shaved it was a great experience and I left this special place a new man. If you have never had a single razor shave, I recommend that you do and soon and not just for special occasions. El Catrin provides a full service haircut. Nowadays, people are used to in and out fast food and online bill paying, but when you come into this shop, everything takes time. At first, people want to rush but once they get used to the shop, they like to come in and relax while they get a good haircut," explains Carlos. The barbershop used to be a place of conversation and gentleman discourse and with any luck, Carlos plans on restoring that. Don't take our word for it though; stop by and check the place out for yourself.
