Tips & Tricks For Curly Hair | Haircare Routine For Curls
A lot of websites talk about how to make your hair straight and shiny, but no one ever talks about how to take care of your curls or how to take care of curly hair. If you are one of the girls with curly hair, you may be knowing already about how difficult it is to take care of curly hair. Having curly hair doesn't mean that you don't have to do anything for them, it actually means you need to invest the double of your time into haircare!
Now the question is- Are you taking care of your curls correctly? Do you know the number of people who would die to have bouncy ringlets? They say the grass is always greener on the other side. People who are born with curls do not appreciate the beauty of curls because they do not know how to handle hair that thick and frizzy. On the other hand, people who aren't born with curls dream of curling their hair and use artificial means to do the same! Truth to be told, maintaining curls isn't as easy as people think. It requires a lot of patience, hard work, and determination. Here are 11 simple, easy and inexpensive ways to maintain curls-
1. Conditioner is for the hair what water is for the body
Conditioner moisturizes the hair follicles which helps your hair grow faster and in a healthy manner.Merely shampooing your hair just dries the scalp and makes your hair prone to damages caused using heat on your hair.While applying conditioner, see to it that you squeeze the hair of excess water and apply it from the root upwards only on the hair; avoid applying conditioner to the scalp as it causes irritation. Doing this on a regular basis can improve the texture of your curly hair.

2. Use Sulfate free products
Sulfate, a chemical is highly toxic to your hair. Being an irritant, it causes tremendous itchiness, causes extreme hair fall and gives rise to split ends. Sulfates dry the scalp and rid it of all the moisture which makes your hair weak and brittle. They are not very hair-friendly, so avoid using products with contain sulfates.
3. Do not wash your hair frequently
Without moisture, hair becomes brittle and weak and therefore prone to falling, breaking or even split ends. Washing the hair twice or even once a weak for cleansing has a much better effect than shampooing it three or four times a week. Make sure you use a small amount of shampoo suitable for your hair and gently massage the scalp; DO NOT use fingernails to do so or put unnecessary strain on your hair. Curly hair is very sensitive and thus should be managed carefully while washing.
4. A big no to Tying or Brushing while wet
Wet hair is fragile. Harsh usage of a brush to comb your hair makes the hair weak causing hair fall and breakage. Yes, you cannot comb your curly hair when it is dry, but it is advisable for you to use a comb with wider teeth to detangle your hair.Do not tightly tie your hair with a hair tie immediately after a shower. Let your hair breathe for a while and let the air dry your hair up instead. You can part your hair in sections so that you can manage the curly hair easily and detangle them for a smooth texture.

5. Use a bonnet or a satin cloth while sleeping
Sleeping on a cotton pillow or a cotton cloth does not do your hair any good. Cotton absorbs moisture and therefore makes your hair dry. Fastening your hair with a satin cloth or bonnet does not just retain the moisture but it also maintains the curls. It keeps the ringlets as is and you don't have to worry about your curls losing shape after you sleep.
6.Moisturize with oil, leave-in conditioners, hair gel and mousse
Use oils that are friendly with your scalp-type. Some people tend to observe a significant amount of hair fall after using coconut-based products because of their allergy towards protein. Use gentler and lighter oils to retain moisture.One of the must do's to maintain beautiful ringlets is to apply leave-in conditioner as it locks moisture and keeps your hair looking radiant and glowing.You can also apply gel or mousse for better results and better curls.
7.Massage the scalp gently to increase blood circulation
Blood gives hair strength and ensures the growth of hair.Gentle massages on the scalp improve blood circulation in the scalp and provide you with relaxation as well!Make sure to at least massage the scalp once or twice in a week to see the better hair growth and healthier hair, especially to all the curly beauties! Massaging will definitely give life to your lifeless curls and help maintain the beauty of your curly hair.
8.Say 100% yes to air-drying
It is a fact that heat destroys the hair. The heat drains the scalp of moisture, makes hair brittle, weak and lifeless.Air is the perfect medium to dry your hair. It may take longer but it is worth the wait.Do not bounce your hair or touch it when went. Instead, leave it as is and let the air work its magic. Air makes the curls bouncier and gives it more volume.
9.Maintain your curls with a hair mask
The easiest way to make hair mask is to take a bowl, put a few tablespoons of conditioner, mix it with a teaspoon of two light oils each and then heat it for 30 seconds in the microwave. Warm products get absorbed faster by the scalp.Make the hair mask at least once a month and let it sit on your head for 2 hours.The hair mask deeply moisturizes the scalp and helps improve the texture of the hair.
10. Avoid foamy shampoos
Normal shampoos are highly foaming and for some reason, we enjoy creating lather on our head. The more lather the shampoo creates, the more harmful the shampoo is because of the number of chemicals in the shampoo. It is highly advisable to use a less foaming shampoo or a deep cleanser, especially if you are having curly hair.

Spellbound MUX does not have a coded system for combat (or any other in-character function), and we rely on detailed ability and skill write-ups in applications that are adhered to always, and updated via approval, instead of statistics, and a balanced mix of consent and fairplay instead of dice rolls. We have chosen this system because, with proper mediation in especially complicated situations, it works, and doesn't disrupt storytelling or try to measure abstract concepts and skillsets to numbers. It also places an emphasis on storytelling, instead of focusing on combat and earning points.
In the end, we stand by a standard rule of thumb:
In Character Actions = In Character Consequences
This means that if your character does something, you can OOCly expect that there will be IC retaliation. If you pick a fight, you may get hurt. If you do something dangerous, you may get killed. That said, we do not condone deaths against player consent except when absolutely necessary, and no other option is available. In most cases of such extreme circumstances, both staff and players have a duty to make sure that someone realises that they are risking their character's life if they do a certain action, and do they want to reconsider or proceed? If a compromise cannot be reached, then staff will step in to resolve it by weighing up the factors.
That said, this may not be used as a loophole. If staff feels as though a player is letting their character get into dangerous situations and denying appropriate consequences consistently thanks to the consent rule, and thus abusing it, they may find themselves on the end of an OOC warning, and repeated offenses may lead to banning.

The Smile Design Process
We often talk about the way that the smile design process goes, with our points of view and with our opinions. The opinions of those that are part of the team here are Atlanta Center For Cosmetic Dentistry. Now you will have the change to get the opinion of a patient who has gone through the smile design process recently.
Meet Liz
Liz was born and raised just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. She went to Auburn University and she is a War Eagle to this day. Liz has done modeling and acting since she was about 16 and has been doing broadcasting for really large scale national political events for the last ten years or so. Because of her work, a smile is something that is important to her.
Watch Liz's Facebook Live with our very own Brandi and Dr. Cooper!
Choosing Atlanta Center For Cosmetic Dentistry
Liz admits to being specific and picky. A lot went into choosing our office. She shared that she followed us on Instagram, as well as a dozen cosmetic dentists for two years or more. Liz would tune into our Instagram daily to see what our posts were. She shared that we posted something that spoke to how conservative Dr. Cooper is with the natural teeth For someone that didn't hate her smile but I didn't love it, she wasn't ready to have her teeth completely filed down. This one point was what actually prevented her from getting cosmetic dentistry for five years.
What Liz found so special and different about our office, was how conservative we were with the natural teeth. Once she came in for her first appointment, she found that she also loved the lavender neck pillows and the chair masseuse because they really supported her with her anxiety around the smile design process.
Dr. Cooper's Reflection
Dr. Cooper shared that Liz's smile was not that bad. It was a smile that had brought Liz through modeling and pageants but it just wasn't something that she loved. Dr. Cooper helped Liz identify the things that she liked and the things that she didn't like. Most of it was very subtle. Very minimal, no preparation of the tooth structure, just adding some size and some new dimension to Liz's existing teeth and changing some of the gum contours.
More importantly, we were able to work with Liz around her budget and bring her through a smile design process that did not involve all of her teeth in that moment. And, she always has the option of coming back in for more work. Liz was thrilled with the results and the fact that she couldn't tell that only a few teeth had gone through the process.
We believe in the concept that less is better than more. If we can accomplish with the patent wants with fewer teeth, we always want to try to use the natural to structure around because that just makes it look real also.
Liz's Reflection
Being in front of so many people, with a network that is growing, Liz needed to have the confidence to be seen. She shared that she used to have to stand at a certain angle in front of the camera because she was self-conscious about part of her smile. Liz now has what she calls "a million dollar smile" and adds "I think it adds so much value to everything that I'm doing (in the public eye) so as far as confidence goes, I wouldn't have changed a thing."
You can follow Liz on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/lizwillis.
Still feel like your on the fence?
Liz's suggestion is to come in and get a consultation, take advantage of technology that is available to do an image of what the future is for you with a smile design process without having to actually have anything done. Then you will know what you can expect with your results.

The Toyota bB was marketed as a 'Car-Shaped Music Player' in order to appeal to a younger demographic. It has subtle ambient lighting, a nice audio system and looks like it rolled off the production line not so long ago.
This funky little 1.3 automatic combines low mileage with A/C , Airbags , Alloy Wheels , Power Steering , Power Window , CD Player , Rear Spoiler , ABS , AM/FM Radio , DVD , Fog Lights & Keyless Entry. It has the usual Toyota refinements.
This Toyota bB has yet to roll off the ship from Japan but it'll be here before Christmas. Many of our cars are sold before they arrive. This example has fewer than 50000 miles on the clock.

Whether you want to excel in academics, work, and productivity, or creativity and artistic abilities, Wealth Nutrition has researched every compound imaginable to help you to excel in every avenue of life.
What we did that no other supplement company is doing was (a) we went into this for ourselves, trying to boost our own creativity, energy, and mental capacity so that we could accomplish our own goals—without a thought about making money off of it. (b) when we discovered the brain trust we needed to help us formulate these supplements, we realized, "hey, we need to share what we have discovered with the world."
So, we put together what we call "The Magic Triad" of energy enhancement. Our FocusFi Formula, one designed to improve mental concentration and to enhance neurogenesis to help you pack your brain with new and healthy brain cells; Our Smooth Energy supplement to help you stay powered with energy all day without those speedy up and downs that most amphetamine-only based supplements do, and our TruRest formula, one packed with organic, healthy compounds that help you refuel, rest, and create new brain cells, build new muscle, and lose unhealthy fat as you sleep.
FocusFi is jam-packed with super-neurogenesis-boosting compounds that not only birth new brain cells but also help you super-boost intelligence and creativity as well.
Let's go over the ingredients and what they do to help you super-boost intelligence one by one. First, let's talk about our Herbal Focus Blend.
Bacopa Monnieri
Ginko Biloba for Enhancing Cognition
Ginko Biloba is one of the most proven compounds known to enhance cognitive performance and memory. Ginko Biloba is and remains one of the most revered plants known to improve symptoms of a wide range of cognitive disorders from Alzheimer's to age-related memory loss. It is also known to improve short- and long-term memory in children, adults, and the aged.
Beta-Phenylethylamine HCL (PEA)
Beta-Phenylethylamine HCL or (PEA) is a natural brain stimulant and a hormone-like stimulant and naturally occurring neurotransmitter contained in the brain and body. It's known powers are to fight t functions as a neurotransmitter that gives you heightened focus, attention, goal-directed behavior, and task-completion while fighting depression, lack of joy in activities, lack of motivation, and poor concentration and focus. We included this in our Power 6 Matrix after discovering, through research, it's powers for improving performance and keeping mood high so you can conquer the world while being happy while doing so. As Dr. Helen Fisher from Rutgers's University notes, "The brain's best-known love chemical is phenylethylamine, or PEA," adding that
The ventral tegmental area is a clump of cells that makes dopamine, a natural stimulant, and sends it out to many brain religions when one is in love. This is the same region affected when you feel the rush of cocaine. Phenylethylamine produces the neurochemical dopamine and contributes to the pleasurable, on-top-of-the-world feeling that attraction brings.
She also adds the only other ways to get this stimulating feeling is through "sky-diving and chocolate."
So, we've conveniently provided this here for you, sans parachute, to keep you feeling happy and ready to accomplish.
Alpha GPC: A New Brain-Enhancing, Alzhiemer's-Fighting Compound that Packs a Punch
Studies have proven that cognitive decline is directly attributable because of a shortage of choline (acetylcholine) intake. In studies, not only has higher choline intake been associated with better cognitive performance, but it has also been found that increasing choline intake decreases signs of cognitive decline, improves memory, improves attention span, and protects the brain from neurodegeneration.
In a recent study of 24 male participants, supplementing with choline led to improved cognitive processes of all kinds including processing speed, working memory, verbal learning, verbal memory, and executive function. In trials, choline supplementation has also proven to improve symptoms of patients with mild Alzheimer's disease.
Now alpha GPC takes this process one step further by enhancing the absorptive abilities of acetylcholine through providing your with the Alpha GPC form of choline, which, as NeuroHacker notes, results in "improved vitality and increased strength" because it "helps the muscles recover after exercise" and stimulates production of growth hormone" GH in the body, while acting as a mild stimulant.
L-tyrosine has amazing capacities for improving cognitive performance, even during periods of great sleep loss, when study participants had been awake over 24 hours straight.
Sulbutiamine is B1 derivative, capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier, where it has proven effects of enhancing cognition, mood, motivation, and concentration. Sulbutiamine works by increasing dopamine and glutamate activity in decision-making areas of the brain, chiefly the prefrontal cortex. Other benefits of Sulbutiamine include that it reduces cell death in the brain through increasing the availability of glutathione to brain cells,, increases energy use in the brain by increasing the production of thiamine triphosphate, and increases activity in the brain's hippocampus to improve memory and concentration.
& Free Shipping
On our Instagram and Facebook pages, the overwhelmingly positive reviews are pouring in in all languages from all over the globe. People love the sustained, smooth energy you get from our formulas, their improved brain function, and that they've been able to accomplish more, do more, and achieve things in their lives they never thought possible till trying our supremely researched, infinitely healthy, plant-based, vitamin and phytonutrient drenched formulas and stacks.

Sweet, gooey, sticky Peanut Butter Caramel Brownie Magic Bars!
Did I already mention that I'm participating in #nocupcakesJAN? It's kinda killing me. I reallllllly want a cupcake. But, I looked back at our honeymoon pictures this afternoon and got a quick dose of inspiration. Target has a lot of cute bathing suits out, too, so that helps.
These Peanut Butter Caramel Brownie Magic Bars are not healthy (I might have even referred to them as diabetes inducing). But they are good. I made them for my friend who is having a rough start to the year and, of course, I had to taste test one. Just one, small corner. Hopefully they made her feel better. If nothing else, the super cute heart tray that I piled them on (that I got from Target for $3!) should help.
I saw Dorothy at Crazy for Crust make Brownie Peanut Butter Magic Bars last week and tweaked them just a little bit to make room for the caramel that my friend requested. That made them extra chewy and gooey.
Peanut Butter Caramel Brownie Magic Bars
- 1 19.5 oz brownie mix I used Pillsbury Chocolate Fudge
- 1 stick butter softened (I used salted)
- 1 egg
- 6 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups chopped
- 1/4 cup peanut butter chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup caramel bits
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a 9″ x 13″ pan with foil. Spray with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat brownie mix, butter and egg until combined. I used my hand mixer but it does get thick so be careful that you don't break it. I would probably use my stand mixer next time.
- Press the brownie mix into the bottom of the prepared pan, making it even.
- Sprinkle the chopped peanut butter cups, peanut butter chips, chocolate chips and caramel bits over the brownie crust.
- Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the candy evenly so it's fully coated.
- Depending on your oven, bake 28-30 minutes until the brownies begin to brown. I checked mine at 28 minutes and they were still very "wet" so I left them go another 5 minutes or so.
- Let them cool completely before slicing into bars. You can pop them into the fridge for a few minutes (if you're impatient, like me) to speed up up the cooling process.
Things you might need:
Heart shaped serving trays, because why not
9 x 13 pan
Caramel bits

Hi! It's been a crazy time. I've been to Oregon with my mom-in-law, we celebrated her 99th birthday end of May. I am in Florida until the end of June when we are going to go pick her up (she has a caregivier with her) and bring her back to FL mid-July. Then I should be here. I made this card for my husband for Father's Day. The theme of this week's Sugar Bowl was love/weddings. No weddings coming up. But I wanted to express my love to my hubby as the father of our children. I used this adorable image from Sugar Nellie, colored it with Prisma Color Pencils and Gamsol. I cut the image out and popped it out with foam circles. The hearts are also popped out. The paper is from Basic Grey Mellow (wanted a masculine paper). The hearts and flower are also from BG Mellow. The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp. The brad is also from BG. Inside the flowers are from Prima flowers, the two rhinestones are Kaiser Craft, and the brads are from my stash. I cut the circles and inside with Nestabilities. The base blue paper is from Stampin' Up. Guess that's it. Thanks for lookin'!

Regardless of how well you treat your teeth, over time they will suffer from minor damage and staining; these imperfections are unavoidable. Your dentist will begin to see minute surface cracks on the tooth as well as small chips on the biting surfaces and discoloration. Discoloration is most evident on those patients that smoke, but even tea and coffee can take their toll on the color.
Over the past few years more and more dentists have been offering both remedial and cosmetic services and as a result many patients are aware that certain problems that have a detrimental effect on their smile can be corrected. One of the more common cosmetic procedures is fitting dental veneers in Spring, TX.
What are dental veneers?
A dental veneer is an extremely thin, custom made porcelain wafer which is fitted over the front of your teeth. Although porcelain is the better material, they may also be made from acrylic or synthetic resin. Once they have been fitted over the exposed surface of the tooth they show as up as an enamel like facade. As they are translucent, light shines through them allowing the color of the underlying tooth to shine through making them by far the most natural looking restoration available.
Who can have them?
Your dentist will be the person who decides if you are a good candidate for veneers in Spring, TX or not. If your teeth are badly stained, chipped, cracked, poorly shaped or worn then you are good candidate.
As well as certain conditions that can be corrected your teeth also have to be generally healthy, veneers will never replace the need for good oral hygiene. People who have the tendency to grind their teeth while they sleep may have to wear a mouth guard at night.
The cosmetic solution:
Veneers in Spring, TX are stain resistant and although they are very thin, they are extremely durable and will last many years. Tooth whitening or bonding is an alternative procedure that can be chosen, but nothing is quite as good as veneers. The complete procedure will take multiple appointments with your dentist. The entire process of creating and placing the veneers will normally take several hours over two or three visits to the dentist but once the placement is completed and you have become accustomed to them, you will wonder why you took so long to decide to brighten your smile.
If you are unhappy with the condition of your teeth, dental veneers in Spring TX may be the solution. You are invited to visit America's Family Dental to discuss one of the best ways to improve your smile.

Scott Trembley: Hello everyone. Scott Trembley here, President and CEO of The Trembley Group Real Estate here in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Otherwise, known as Coach T. I am standing here today … today's a very special day. I'm standing here today with an incredibly special person and a special department that this special person works in, which is called our Client Care Specialist Department.
You guys and gals may know that as an Inside Sales Department. We took it to another level as Client Care Specialist. Chuck Everham is here with us. Glad to have you, my friend.
Chuck Everham: Pleasure, Scott.
Scott Trembley: Absolutely. So here's the thing. I want to share, or let Chuck share, with you exactly what we do on a day-to-day basis in our client care department and how we're impacting lives and really, really just knocking down barriers and building strong relationships and crushing our goals every day.
Chuck, share with us what you guys do on a day-to-day basis and how you're impacting lives and you just tell me a little bit more about how that works.
Chuck Everham: Well, you know, that's a great question. Most importantly the way we do change lives here at The Trembley Group is we take the time, most importantly, to understand our clients. There is a lot of real estate agents out there and I'm sure you know. Especially being in the business as long as you've been, being an amazing mentor to us is that not a lot of agents take the time to do that.
Scott Trembley: That's right.
Chuck Everham: It's extremely important. That's one of the first steps of building that trust and best serving them. Also, we do reach out to our clients in the first minute. We know how important their time is so we want to make sure we get in contact with them, start understanding what they're looking for so when the time is right we can make it a very easy transition for them and their move to the Myrtle Beach area.
Scott Trembley: Awesome, awesome. I'm hearing something there. Their response within the first minute, that is really, really, really, really way above industry standard.
By the way guys, you may or may not know this, the industry standard for follow up in the real estate business is 42 hours. These guys are talking to everybody within 60 seconds. So I mean amazing.
Let me tell you something. These guys crush it every single day. So on that note, as we're working with this amazing team. We're working together, we're crushing our goals every day. Chuck tell me what The Trembly Group experience has meant to you and two or three things that have truly impacted your life and your business while working with us.
Chuck Everham: Most importantly the training and the amazing mentors has played the biggest impact on me both in business as well in personal life. The amazing mentors have taught me some of the most amazing skills to really cross the real estate industry but also to really connect with other business professionals who are also going to help me succeed.
Being here, in the real estate industry, like I said, there is a lot of real estate agents out here – 4,000 in the Grand Strand/Myrtle Beach area.
Scott Trembley: Yeah.
Chuck Everham: So with that being said you really do have to have an understanding of the market as well as the skills to sell the homes and best serve your clients. We do have that amazing training. We do meet two times a week, 40 minutes every morning and really dive deep on these skills.
I think that has really played a big impact as well in my personal life as well as business.
Scott Trembley: Lot of coaching, lot of training, lot of skill set building, lot of comradery with the team and a whole lot of just coming together and crushing your goals every day.
That's awesome. It's a lot of fun, right?
Chuck Everham: Oh, it is super exciting. I mean the best part is you get to see people's lives change every day. All the time, all the time because a lot of the time the best feeling is when you get ahold of somebody in that first 15-30 seconds and they go, wow, I've never had somebody get in contact with me let alone even call me back.
Scott Trembley: Yes.
Chuck Everham: Well great. That's why we're so glad you took the time to answer our call today because there is nobody better to be talking to then us here at The Trembley Group.
Scott Trembley: Love it, love it. Alright everybody, we're going to transition a little bit and it's amazing. I love, love, love the impact of lives that Chuck's talk about here.
We're going to move over here to our five core values. Their impact us on a day to day, week to week basis but I want to have Chuck speak to just the one … He loves all of them but speak to one that's really made an impact and resonated his life. So, which one would that be Chuck?
Chuck Everham: Well, 'heart' most importantly. There is a lot of things in life that you really do have to fail it forward and that's one of the biggest things that you've taught me and I've had embrace is, you need a heart to be able to do. You need to be able to fail forward.
Be able to fail because if it's going to happen you might as well learn from them.
Scott Trembley: Yes.
Chuck Everham: Those are the two most important things and I think in order to do that you need to have a lot of drive and a lot of heart.
Scott Trembley: Absolutely.
Chuck Everham: That's why I really focus on that key core value.
Scott Trembley: What I kept hearing right there is failing forward and let me tell you something. Let me back up for a second, if you talk to anyone successful ever in your life, and you look behind the scenes, there is a lot of failures that have come along with that success.
So we're always talking about failing forward there. As we wrap up here I want to just reach out to everybody and say look, if you're looking to change your life, change your business, crush your goals, whatever that might be.Just maybe shift gears into a new culture, someplace that really, really builds into you and develops you and cares about you.
I would love for you to reach out to us. We're always looking for that next special person and that could be on the Client Care Specialist side.
Chuck Everham: Absolutely.

Go change your life today and be amazing and absolutely crush today. Have an awesome day.

BSI will continue to assist sports programs that help provide great experiences for the young people involved - as well as help provide sports related community activities designed to entertain area residents.Learn More
BSI provides scholarships to area student athletes to help them further their education at the college level. Western PA High school seniors, both boys and girls, who play baseball or softball are eligible for these $1000 grants. Applications can be requested by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or by checking with your local HS athletic director.Learn More
BSI believes that student leadership - on the field and off - is important. For that reason, not only is that one of the aspects considered for scholarship winners, we are now planning leadership programs to urge students to become active in school and community activities. BSI plans to co-operate with and assist programs sponsored by others, who share our goal of promoting volunteerism and leadership.Learn More
Our History - Founded in 2001, BSI was responsible for building a professional minor league ballpark and to help spur economic growth, as well as to enhance the quality of life for area residence through sports and entertainment. That was accomplished, and that venue has been the home of the Washington Wild Things for nearly two decades - and has seen countless concerts, college and high school baseball games including WPIAL championship play-offs. Since the ballpark was built - new construction and development nearby has taken place - creating more than 1000 jobs, has stimulated more that $150 million in new construction and is now generating over $1 million annually in new tax revenue.
Our goal is to continue our scholarship program for area high school seniors -boys and girls - to help them advance their education at the college level. So far, BSI has donated more than $70,000 in scholarships. All Western PA high school seniors - who play either baseball or softball, are eligible to apply. More so than their athletic ability, the scholarships are awarded based on academics, along with that student's school and community activities & volunteerism.
Our newest goal is to promote and award student athletes who take a leadership role in community and school activities, even more so than we have in the past. Student Leadership Awards will be given to a number of students who take an active part in projects endorsed by BSI - designed to teach the importance of leadership responsibilities, awareness of world events and volunteerism . Under the banner of Education & Leadership, we will be providing more specific information about this aspect in the very near future.
THIS EVENT IS NOW FILLED - Area high schools are being contacted about the BSI Student Leadership Forum to be held on Monday Oct 7 from 10 am thru 2 pm at a Pittsburgh area university. This event, will be free to area high school seniors. The theme of the forum will be the "importance of better understanding world affairs" and in the "active engagement with others around the world". As future leaders in government and business, it will be today's students, who will play a major role for America on the world stage.Read More
The independent selection committee that will make their decision known, as to who was selected as the recipients of the 2019 BSI Scholarships.Read More
BSI Scholarship Award winners for spring 2019 have been announced. They are Cameron Meier and Skylar Hutchins - the first two girl softball players to be selected. Also named was Abram King. This year's awards are named in honor of long-time educator and sports enthusiast Larry Kushner, who passed away early this year. Larry had been as strong supporter of BSI projects and will be greatly missed. Congratulations to our 2019 award recipients.Read More
A new Leadership Awards program is being initiated this fall (2019) - and will be open to area seniors who play ANY sport. Special projects that will allow for the awarding of scholarships is in the works. THIS EVENT IS NOW FILLEDRead More

The Dark Side / Test Post.« on: August 09, 2020, 11:28:08 pm »
Can I post in here?
1400 GTR - A beast
This section allows you to view all posts made by this member. Note that you can only see posts made in areas you currently have access to.
.....Or arrange for you baby sister to get a job at a motorcycle dealership.
I planted mine in one over twenty five yaers ago and have been "looked after" as family ever since as long as I book in when the workshop is quiet.
Mind you, four MOTs and all fall in December now.
The GTR passed its first one last month by the way, so all good
A third of 18 is 6 therefore you don't have to pay for a big service for another 6 thousand miles on a GTR. Must be more economical then.
The mileage is not the element I'm comparing, it was the cost of the major service which is virtually almost identical making both bikes affordable to own and maintain.
Is that a typo Steve?.
You said Asif cleaned it 🤔 did you mean 1 of his minions 👍
sounds good . Enjoy. I get mine cleaned once a year by All year biker comes up like new.
Alas I'm down the south west on my rounds
Panniers look rather small.
Looks can be deceiving. Are they the same size as Charlie's?
I do not know I have not seen them.
I heard you had had a test ride.
But no panniers on it when I rode it. Also recently rode BMW 1250gs and RS!
Just recovered. To say I was disappointed is an understatement!!
PS PRD road test was with a fully dressed bike and he returned with a big smile on his face. Just putting the record straight guys

- Chope, Singapore' restaurant booking service raised 11 million from F&H Fund Management, NSI Ventures, Frontier ventures and SPH.
- I recently chanced upon Eatigo which is in the same space and I see their potential as they have managed to negotiate for huge discounts for diners who book for meals at specific hours. For example, booking lunch at Marriott Cafe at 2 pm gives you 50%. The depth of discount makes the deal very attractive and it's also win-win for the restaurant, given that there are times of the day where the manpower and tables are not maximised.
- Jewel payment – I recently saw them in the top ten at Echelon. One of the few fintech startups that I think the founders know what to do, given their background in paypal. They have received SPRING ACE's funding and are currently building their risk management product that allows payment card acquiring banks and payment facilitators to effectively manage their merchant's brand, fraud, credit and data security risk profile.
- Patsnap, one of NUS' portfolio companies, has recently raised S$4.5 million with Vertex holdings. They are in a really niche space, making the search for patents faster, smarter and more effortless. Patsnap started in 2007 and with NUS' help, has since expanded beyond the shores of Singapore to China.
- Luxola, my favourite online store for makeup has previously raised $10 million in the round led by Transcosmos Inc in 2014. Why favourite? Huge variety of make-up products, steep discounts once in a while and quick courier delivery, as quickly as the next day!
New accelerators on our sunny shores!
- Australian accelerator Muru-D launches in Singapore and I was quite surprised to find out that my Startup Leadership program leader, David Ding, has joined them!
Rockstart from Amsterdam is here! I met Nicky Koopman when she was in Singapore last year, scouting for an incubator manager and it's now finally launched!

Framing the Real World as Games To Play.

Dennis Crowley is a guru.

Oct'2010 - designing GameMechanics
Nov'2010 - just having points/Badge-s doesn't do it. Gamification is an inadvertent con. It tricks people into believing that there's a simple way to imbue their thing (bank, gym, job, government, genital health outreach program, etc) with the psychological, emotional and social power of a great game. And when their gamified thing doesn't deliver on that promise, the only rational thing for them to do is to turn round and say 'Games don't work! We gamified the dickens out of this thing, and it still didn't make as much money/reach as many users/generate as much social heat as World Of Warcraft/Farm Ville/MineCraft'. Any game designer looking at their gamified thing would say, 'Of course it didn't do what those things did! Those things are all games and your thing isn't!' But they won't be heard, because they won't be in the room, since – and this is very telling – the gamification process rarely involves any actual game designers. Gamification is the wrong word for the right idea. The word for what's happening at the moment is pointsification. There are things that should be pointsified. There are things that should be gamified. There are things that should be both. There are many, many things that should be neither.
Feb'2010: Bernie De Koven and Kathy Sierra are not fans of its typical approach. Don't make me think it's a game when it's not. Don't make it look like fun when it isn't. Show me the fun in it, the fun of it. Invite me to the joyful core of it. Share with me the delight.

Kerberos is a powerful set of programs which allow you to have encrypted connections to virtually anything: TELNET, FTP and even e-mail. This is of little use to the modem user, but in larger settings where Ethernet is used and sniffing is a real danger, Kerberos provides a viable and powerful solution. There is, however, one problem—Kerberos is notoriously known for being overly complex and difficult to install. This article is designed to help you make a good start; before you know it, with a little experimentation everything will (kind of) work. I wish I could explain everything in detail here, but then, this would be a book, not an article.
Like almost every major upgrade/change, it would be ideal to make a backup of your system. If you can, do it. If you don't have a tape drive be careful installing, Kereberos shouldn't write over your files, but if you want to be sure, make copies of /sbin somewhere. It takes two seconds and if something goes wrong it will be well worth your time.
Now we go grab the files. There are binary and source distributions of Kerberos for Linux. I've found that the source usually causes me less problems than the binaries. If you are up to playing around a bit go ahead and get the source, otherwise grab the binaries. Either can be found at http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/www/. I'll cover only the binaries here—simply because compiling the source isn't part of the scope of this article. I'm going to assume you managed to install things right. One important note: If you do choose to use the source (I recommend you do) make sure you extract all the tar archive files, not just the one containing the source. Also, if you install things in a different directory (not /krb5) then you will need to modify the files mentioned below to reflect your installation directory.
These two files control virtually everything. They control the name of your REALM (see below) and who can connect; however, they can be fairly complex. Before you set them up, you will probably need to understand a few terms:
REALM: I think of a realm as a "group". Machines will belong to this group. It has become almost standard procedure to make the realm the same as your domain name, just with capital letters. In my case, I called it UNDER, but you could call it anything you wanted. Yes, you can have more than one REALM, but you probably won't need one. Remember—the REALM is case sensitive! Pick a standard and stick to it.
KEYTAB: a file that contains encrypted information allowing users/machines to authenticate themselves. Each machine that attempts to authenticate itself to the KDC (see below) must have one. This is done by issuing the ktadd command under kadmin.
KDC: the Kerberos Distribution Center—the one that causes you headaches. This is the machine that controls access.
PRINCIPAL: a principal is a "definition" of a user or a host. It is, effectively, what tells the server a user exists or a server is trusted.
INCIDENT: when making a new principal, the notation is as follows: incident/host@REALM. For example, with ktadd, doing something like
ktadd host/pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu@UNDER
would make the incident host for the machine pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu which is part of the UNDER realm.
Take a look at my /etc/krb5.conf file and notice the following:
default_realm = UNDER: name of your realm.
profile = /krb5/var/krb5kdc/kdc.conf: location of your kdc.conf file
Also note the section called [realms]. Under it, I have the name of my realm, UNDER, and the machine that hosts that information, in this case, underground.kellogg.nwu.edu. This will be the hostname of where you just installed Kerberos. [domain_realm] explains who can connect to the realm: anyone from anywhere within kellogg and within res-hall (the dorm rooms at Northwestern). Replace all the information mentioned above with the name of your REALM and the name of the machine you installed the server on.
Now on to your kdc.conf file. You are going to need to place it wherever you defined it in /etc/krb5.conf. My suggestion is you place it in the same directory I did. This will mean making these directories. If you do that, you can just copy my kdc.conf and save yourself some time. Just change the name of the realm to whatever you picked when making krb5.conf file. These two files are integral to making things work. You may want to double check for typos and possibly save yourself some headaches later.
Now, some tedious but easy work must be done. Create the database that controls who can login where by issuing the following command:
# kdb5_util create -r
Initializing database '/krb5/lvar/krb5kdc/principal' for
realm '
master key name 'K/M@YOUR_REALM'
In my case, YOUR_REALM would have been UNDER. Just replace it with whatever the host name of the machine you are on right now is. You will be asked for a master password; pick something you won't forget.
Now you must make an ACL file. This basically controls who can connect and administer the REALM. It can also be complex, but for our purposes we will keep it simple. Edit the file (or create) defined by acl = in the kdc.conf file. Place the following on a line by itself:
This means the administrator can control things. I don't see why you would want anything else anyway.
Now it is time to add users to the machine. First, start off with the administrator account.
# kadmin.local
kadmin.local: addprinc admin/admin@
Enter password for principal "admin/admin@
Re-enter password for principal "admin/admin@
Principal "admin/admin@YOUR_REALM" created.
Then create a keytab on the server. This will authenticate who can modify things on the server and who cannot. Make sure you place everything on one line (including kadmin/changepw):
kadmin.local: ktadd -k /etc/kadm5.keytab kadmin/admin kadmin/changepw Entry for principal kadmin/admin with kvno 3, encryption type DES-CBC-CRC added to keytab WRFILE:/etc/kadm5.keytab. Entry for principal kadmin/changepw with kvno 3, encryption type DES-CBC-CRC added to keytab WRFILE:/etc/kadm5.keytab.You should see something similar, but probably not identical. Then you have to add the necessary information to the server. Edit your /etc/inetd.conf and insert the following:
krb5_prop 754/tcp # Kerberos v5 slave propagation kerberos-adm 749/tcp # Kerberos v5 admin/chpwd kerberos-adm 749/udp # Kerberos v5 admin/chpwd kpasswd 761/tcp kpwd # Kerberos "passwd" -kfallNow, as root, restart inetd and run krb5kdc and kadmind. Congratulations, most of the pain is over. It took me eight hours to get here my first time trying this—hope you did better.
Now test it. A few commands to know about are kinit, klist and kdestory. These initialize your tickets which authorize you, list them and destroy them. (Yes, from the user's point of view, everything is fairly simple.) So try it out by doing a kinit admin/admin@YOUR_REALM
underground:~> kinit admin/admin Password for admin/admin@UNDER: underground:~> klist Ticket cache: /tmp/krb5cc_1000 Default principal: admin/admin@UNDER Valid starting Expires Service principal 08 May 98 15:04:45 09 May 98 01:04:43 krbtgt/UNDER@UNDER
If you got it to work this far, you are virtually done. Add yourself as a user. Run kadmin—it should ask you for a password, same as the one you typed in way back when you created kadmin/admin. The procedure for adding another user is just as simple. Each user is a "principal" (don't ask me where the name came from).
kadmin: addprinc
Enter password for principal "user@
Re-enter password for principal "user@
Principal "user@YOUR_REALM" created.
Should you make a mistake, just delete the principal like so:
kadmin: delprinc user@
Are you sure you want to delete the principal "user@
Principal "user@YOUR_REALM" deleted.
Now test this out the same way you did the administrator. You
should get a new ticket.
I still haven't explained how to use it, so here we go. In order for you to be able to use Kerberos encrypted services on a machine, it must satisfy the following:
It has a principal host/hostname@REALM on the server
It has the correct services set up.
It has a keytab file and has /etc/inetd.conf set up right.
The easiest way to try this out is to set up the server so that it will let you make encrypted connections, before you attempt to add other machines. The problem is that it is a bit different from setting up another machine. So we are going to say we want to have kerberized TELNET and FTP on the machine pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu for this example. To do this, you need to satisfy the three requirements above.
Let's go over the first. You are going to need to install Kerberos on the machine you want to offer kerberized services on first. All this means is putting the binaries on the machine (in our example pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu). So just go install the binaries. You can, if you want, just copy them over. Then copy your /etc/krb5.conf file from the KDC (server) and place it on the machine you are giving kerberized services (pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu). From that machine, you must run kinit admin/admin. Then run kadmind from your machine (or in my case pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu) and run the following commands:
kadmin: addprinc host/pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu kadmin: addprinc telnet/pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu kadmin: addprinc ftp/pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu kadmin: ktadd host/pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu telnet/pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu ftp/pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu
A quick explanation is in order. For each service you plan to offer that is kerberized, you must have a principal. Hence, the use of telnet and ftp with the addprinc command. Then you must make the keytab. That is done by issuing the ktadd command. All of this must be done on the machine, you are setting up to offer services (in this case pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu).
Finally, edit your /etc/inetd.conf and add the following lines. You will want to comment out any previous definitions of telnet and ftp.
klogin stream tcp nowait root /krb5/sbin/klogind klogind -ki eklogin stream tcp nowait root /krb5/sbin/klogind klogind -eki kshell stream tcp nowait root /krb5/sbin/kshd kshd -ki telnet stream tcp nowait root /krb5/sbin/telnetd telnetd -a valid ftp stream tcp nowait root /krb5/sbin/ftpd -a
Go back to the main server and create yourself a ticket (kinit user@YOUR_REALM). Now make a user (see above addprinc command) for yourself and try to login using telnet like this:
underground:~> telnet -l cosimo pepsi Trying 22.214.171.124... Connected to pepsi.kellogg.nwu.edu (184.108.40.206). Escape character is '^]'. [ Kerberos V5 accepts you as "cosimo@UNDER" ] Last login: Fri May 8 13:44:44 on tty2 Linux 2.0.30. pepsi:~>Note how you didn't have to enter a password. That's okay, because the ticket gave you the access to the machine. The ticket does eventually expire, but it can be renewed by issuing a new kinit command. (Do a klist to see when it does expire.

In a settlement with the FTC, consumers affected by the breach are eligible for up to $20,000 in a cash settlement, depending on damages they can prove.
In 2017, Equifax suffered one of the most infamous data breaches in US history. Personal information of roughly 148 million people was compromised, and the company since has paid for the breach in terms of reputation damage and careers harmed, and now another bill is coming due — this one from the US Federal Trade Commission.
The FTC has announced a settlement with Equifax that will result in the company paying at least $575 million and as much as $700 million to the agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and 50 US states and territories.
Variation in the total amount comes from uncertainty over just how many consumers will take advantage of the settlement's cash terms. Individuals are eligible for up to $20,000 in a cash settlement depending on the damages they can prove.
In addition, Equifax has agreed to provide at least four years' monitoring of credit reports at the three major credit bureaus, and up to ten years' credit monitoring at Equifax, for every US consumer. Those who were minors in May 2017 are eligible for 18 years of credit monitoring.
Both the fine and its sheer size are significant, according to Alex Calic, strategic technology partnerships officer for the Media Trust. "Companies need to be aware that they can't wait for the breach to occur anymore and just say 'sorry.' They know there's going to be a financial penalty," he says.
That financial penalty has surprised some because of its size — though whether they're surprised because it's so large or so small depends on their point of view. Not everyone was caught off guard, though: "The size didn't surprise me. I wouldn't have been surprised to see several times large, or half this size," admits Rob Clyde, board director and past chair of ISACA. "Below that amount would have raised eyebrows, but you also don't want to destroy the company. There's a balance to be hit."
The FTC appears to want to prevent other companies from finding themselves in situations similar to Equifax's breach. "The Equifax fine was to punish people for not paying attention," says Kiersten Todt, managing director of the Cyber Readiness Institute. "If I'm reading the tea leaves, the FTC wants companies to invest in resiliency, not just in the response."
She points out the difference in this case and the 2013 Target breach. The difference, she says, is that "after, Target executives were more willing to pay for response than prevention. But now the scale is shifting."
It remains unclear if the Equifax fine by the FTC is a sign of things to come. "We'll see more and more regulators 'bring the hammer down' and levy some of the largest fines ever seen to raise the sense of urgency. This time it's the FTC, next could be European GDPR, then the upcoming California Consumer Privacy Act," say Pravin Kothari, CEO of CipherCloud.
The fine isn't likely to have a devastating operational impact on Equifax, experts say."The best outcome isn't Equifax making the situation right – although that is important for all of those affected – it's everyone else learning that the price to be paid outweighs the inconvenience of ensuring proper measures are taken to secure the data that puts them at risk in the first place," says Adam Laub, CMO of STELTHbits Technologies. "It's got to be from the ground up, too. There's no silver bullet."

Are political parties a bad idea?
Over here in the UK i am looking at the political parties and realsing one thing: They are all terrible.
The people from the parties are voted in by the people of their constituency yet they do not properly represent them. For example just look at the coalition government, both parties involved have had to vote for things that the people who voted for them did not want eg the lib dems had to vote for higher tuition fees.
I realise that this is how parties work however i am asking the question if they are good or bad. The parties are often corrupt and the people who are elected are often bent to the will of their leader and do what the leader tells them rather than what is better for their community.
This is a problem in the U.S as well were as there are only 2 main parties people have to choose between them rather than pick a party that is in the middle ground between them and then to make it worse the parties instead of simply working together to improve the country will deliberately vote against anything the other party proposes even if it agrees with their views.
Therefore my question is: are parties a bad idea and should all elected officials properly represent the views of the people that elected them than simply doing what the leader says.

Initially political parties form out of a basis of convenience. They bring together like minded individuals as it makes delivering their ideological policies much easier whilst giving the voters clear identification to what ideology they align themselves with.
However, political parties become problematic with age. The older and larger a political party gets, the more members of different ideological opinion form. Take the modern Conservative Party and the Labour Party, both are quite old parties that have been around for over 100 years. Initially they would draw support from a narrow path, but after a while, as the grow and they get more successful, people who share 7/10 of their views would join, and so on and so fourth until the party has different wings.
Take the Conservative Party, it has two very notable wings, The New Right (Thatcherism) and the "Modernisers" which David Cameron is the champion of. However, even elements of the Thatcherite wing of the party have splits, some are more libertarian, and others are not.
The Labour Party is similar, it has two distinct wings. The old socialist wing and the Blairite Wing (New Labour). Both wings strongly dislike one another, but they reside under the same party which at an election can give voter a false impression to what their ideological stand point is.
The problem comes with the move to center. Center right voters make up about 35%, center left make up 35%, the majority however make up about maybe 20% of the core voters and these are either left of center or right of center, this is the "swing" voter (the other 10% includes the far right and far left). Parties aim to attract swing voters as they traditionally hold the balance of power. Parties therefore, Labour and Conservative, move towards the center and their policies quickly align with one another, making them very similar parties with only minor differences.
In the end, the political system in a First Past the Post electoral system moves towards the center and forgets about everyone else as politics becomes not about enacting ideological policies, but rather winning and securing the career of a politician.
The Party whips are another key factor in party political systems, they disincentivize parliamentarians of a party to vote with their heart, but rather with the political party.
Then when factions of the party break off and rebel, new parties on the left or right form. They champion the right of center or left of center policies. However, come the election in a First Past the Post system, if a voter votes for the new lets say right of center party as they want a more right wing MP, they will be punished by the voting system as the Conservative Party (lets say they are the current MP in constituency X) will lose votes making it easier for a left wing party to win that seat on a lower percentage of the overall vote, some MP's get in with less than 30% of the constituency vote,
MP's become reluctant to want voting change as it would damage and threaten their own position in power and the two big parties fear that. This creates what people coined as the "two party state", two political parties in power forever, both are centralist parties and both become a closed political elite.
This makes the political party system in a First Past the Post system perhaps the most anti-democratic, supposedly "democratic" form of government.

Unfortunately, that is the way it is and has been since Millard Fillmore who was a part of the Whig party. Kind of sad considering the first president, George Washington, was not a Republican (party didn't exist yet) or a Democrat. He was an Independent. But the two parties which have dominated 98% of presidential elections since the very first president have been either Democrat or Republican. This has trickled to all elections of most every elected official running in a partisan election. It is unfair that other parties get passed up, but the only way to insure a candidate is going to win is to vote for one belonging to a party that is dominate- Democrat or Republican. Some people waste their vote on a third party candidate. But, make no mistake, it is a wasted vote. That has just been the manner by which our elections have been run on- one or the other of the two prominent parties. Personally, I think they should dissolve both parties by decree and allow lesser parties to become the dominate parties. Maybe a less known party would have a better chance of getting something done that would be good for the country. Couldn't get much worse.

The difficulty with not having parties is the difficulty of getting over to voters what candidates in elections actually stand for. Parties provide a convenient label.
Consider that we had Parliament before we had parties. Parties evolved for precisely that reason, so that groups of MPs who shared similar views could group together. Elections worked without them because before the Reform Act 1832, the few men who owned enough property to be allowed to vote probably knew the candidates personally anyway. But now all adults can vote, that can't possibly work. And how would the Prime Minister be chosen?
Of course parties aren't perfect, but they make elections more practical. And there can only be one government, so if you have a coalition there has to be compromise. I rather prefer coalition, actually - it means you get a government more than half the voters actually voted for some part of, even if the part you voted for can't get everything it wants. At least it can get SOME of what it wants rather than nothing at all. The UK isn't used to coalition yet, and it means the parties have to work together to get things done.

Ancient Greek citizens would all meet in the center of town in order to
decide on matters of importance in their city state.
That involved a few hundred men.
Today, counties have populations in the millions. There is no way
for everyone to meet and agree on legislation, and there has to be
a form of representative government, where people choose who will
speak for them.
This can only work with a party system.
Yes, parties can be a pain in the a*s, but they are a necessity.

They probably are, but it's hard to see what can be done about them. In a democratic system, there's nothing more natural than for those who are involved in politics and share broad ideas about what policies should be favored to form an alliance to advance their beliefs. That's all really that a party is, but over time it almost always comes to be much more, until you get to something like the modern US Republican party, which now barely even hesitates to adopt policies that deliberately harm the country to score short term political advantages.

it is better than a direct democracy
at least this way we won't fight each other and fall apart, but instead take down the party. we just need to scare them into doing what people want. threatening to simply vote them out in a few years will accomplish nothing.
- Dr RedthumbLv 77 years ago
It's not perfect, but it's the best system anybodies come up with so far, try comparing places which use the model we know as democracy to places which don't, see which ones you think you'd rather live in.

Each issue of Your Crochet & Knitting we learn about how some of our favourite designers got started on their yarn adventures. First up, we spoke to the inspirational Dedri Uys – well known for her stunning Sophie's Universe crochet-along.
When did you first learn to crochet?
My granny taught me to crochet when I was about seven years old. I made a few simple granny squares, ticked 'crochet' off my things-to-learn list, and thought I would probably never do it again.
What inspired you to take up crochet?
When I was pregnant with my second son we were really struggling with our finances. Halfway through my pregnancy, I realised we wouldn't be able to buy him anything new for his arrival. I wanted him to have something special, so I decided to crochet a blanket with the cheapest acrylic I could find. It was a simple linen stitch in hideously bright colours, but it remains one of my favourite blankets. I found it so rewarding, sitting there crocheting with my arms resting on my stomach.
What did you find most difficult to start?
There are a few things I struggled with, the most important of which is not knowing my stitch anatomy. I would count my stitches by counting the posts and would fudge things wherever needed, never quite understanding why I would be a stitch short or one too many. I didn't even think I should probably know which loops belong to which post. Once I really started looking at my stitches and figured it out, it was as if someone had flicked a switch. Once you understand your stitch anatomy, a whole new world of understanding opens up.
What benefits do you feel crochet has had for you?
I am artistic, but cannot draw or paint very well. Crochet has allowed me to express my creativity and feed my artistic soul. Whether I am following someone else's pattern or designing my own, I am creating art. It helps me calm down when I am stressed or upset; looking at my progress reminds me I have done something on the days when I feel I have accomplished nothing – it has rewarded me with a wonderful online community and many new and dear friends, it keeps me sane.
What advice would you give to our readers who are crocheting for the first time?
We live in a digital age, so it's easy to find step-by-step tutorials for just about everything. Esther Dijkstra from It's All in a Nutshell has a brilliant library of crochet tutorials, not just for individual stitches, but also for some of the more popular crochet-alongs. If someone is new to crochet, I highly recommend jumping in at the deep end with a complex pattern that has both photo tutorials and video tutorials. It is the best way to learn good habits and techniques in a short time. My Sophie's Universe looks daunting and it is safe to say it is an advanced pattern, but it has been written specifically for beginners. Many people have made Sophie as their first project (it's quite a crash-course, let me tell you). Once you can make and understand the five basic stitches (ch, dc, htr, tr, dtr), you can make anything!

Where does the sour cream come in. Sure not in the recipe
Jun 5, 2016
This was horrible. I wish I would have read the reviews before making this pie. The pie was nothing but a puddle of liquid. I even baked it an extra 10 minutes, but it still was pile of soup. Do Not Make this - a total waste of precious rhubarb and your evening's dessert needs to be thrown out. O stars, but it wasn't offered.
Jun 12, 2015
This was the easiest recipe ever. I used my food processor for the crust so quick and easy cleanup. It came out sweet tart and creamy. Will make this again.
Sep 12, 2014
I love the recipe!!! I've made about 10 of these pies for my family and friends love it! Oh and to the ones that say the pie is runny after you take it out of the oven...it needs at least a 1/2 hour to set and get thick!! Once its thick...don't blink because it'll be gone before you know it!! Hahaha!
Jun 16, 2014
I agree with the rater below. I have made this recipe twice following it EXACTLY and I threw the runny, gloppy mess OUT BOTH TIMES!!
Jul 29, 2013
I made this today and it took almost 90 minutes to make and it was still yokey in the middle...Very bad recipes. Oh... and I had used the last of my rhubarb on this.....

The crust was great but the filling was full of water or juice from the rhubarb. I cooked it for 45 minutes and the crust was done. Is there a part of this recipe that is missing? Help!!!!

Westwind Air Bearings Case Study
Requirement: Citrix XenApp
Westwind Air Bearings needed a solution that would allow its users to access all essential business applications via one desktop, no matter their location.
The Client
Westwind Air Bearings design and manufacture air bearing spindles for PCB, automotive, semiconductor and many other markets where performance needs are outside the scope of conventional bearing technology. Westwind Air Bearings is part of Novanta Inc - a global company whose manufacturing facilities and offices stretch from California to Tokyo.
Westwind Air Bearings was working from three sites across a Trading Park. The Management Team had decided to rationalise the company's operating costs by consolidating these into one central site, which presented Westwind Air Bearings with an opportunity to reassess its approach to delivering IT to its users, as well as reducing its carbon footprint effectively.
Technical Solution
GCI was selected to deliver a streamlined and efficient IT infrastructure. Following a highly-successful Citrix XenApp pilot study to evaluate the potential benefits and savings of the technology, a full XenApp server farm was implemented, delivering a published desktop to the user base. Westwind Air Bearings's users access all critical business applications - including Exchange, file shares and their line of business applications - via the XenApp desktop. The use of Citrix technology enables users to access the information they require from any location, increasing productivity and saving the company time and money. The implementation of the Citrix server farm also had a positive effect on the environment; through the use of thin clients - which use far less power in comparison to the PCs they were using - Westwind Air Bearings was able to significantly reduce its carbon footprint. Additionally, the company has used its operational and energy-based cost savings to invest in an IP telephony solution, minimising power and cabling requirements to each desk.
Success and Company Benefits
This initial Citrix project has been so well-received that it is now being evaluated for sites in the US, Japan and China to deliver cost-effective remote access. By centralising its IT and delivering applications via Citrix technology, Westwind Air Bearings immediately reduced the costs associated with supporting, managing and powering the desktop estate. Additionally, the speed with which applications are delivered and its devices power-on and boot-up means that users are more productive in comparison.
John Doughty, IT Manager for Westwind Air Bearings, said: "By implementing the Citrix solution we now have a platform that is easy to manage, with desktops and applications rolled out across the business very quickly. It is a solution that gives our business a cutting edge, as well as reduces our impact on the environment."

Come and learn Italian at one of the most authentic place in Italy! If you want to live a truly Italian experience that combines Italy's best food, a heady mix of traditions, culture and postcard like sceneries, you should definitely visit the South.
Sure, Tuscany has been promoted as the most authentic place in Italy for decades but SALENTO is the real deal-a micro region not facing yet the negative impact of mass tourism. You will also notice that the locals prefer to be called Salentini instead of Pugliesi, since they have an entirely different dialect, customs and traditions that differentiates them from the northern part of Puglia. The habitants of the area comprising the whole province of Lecce, almost all the population of Brindisi and part of the one of Taranto, distingue themselves by the glottological and cultural characteristics very different from the ones of the rest of Puglia.
Within the Salento territory there actually are peculiar ethnological-linguistic enclaves , in which it is spoken a neo-greek dialect known as grecanico or griko, that probably draws its roots from medieval migrations as Salento has always been a door to the Orient.
Puglia is one of the richest in prehistoric finds regions of Italy. The Puglia history is very particular, because on this territory have alternate in the centuries and in the millenniums various denominations, from Magna Grecia to Impero Romano, from Impero Bizantino to Svevi, always occupying a primary position in the wheat and oil production. Puglia is a region that has also crossed dark and poor historical moments, that presently reflect on the humbleness and simplicity of the Puglia life. The Bourbon domination, that has brought a little peace on the region, was soon substituted by Regno d'Italia, which has divided the region in the current provinces.
The Puglian region is mainly characterized by its coastlines, reaching over 800 Km. Worth to be visited are the beaches of Alimini with its high dunes, the low coast of Gallipoli, the 12 km of beaches of Uggento, the rocky walls of Porto Selvaggio, the white beaches of Porto Cesareo, and for the most courageous, the high cliffs of Polignano a Mare. For those who have more time, we recommend the Tremiti isles at the North of Gargano and the other small islands. Don't miss out the "Maledives del Salento" and Pescoluse beaches at the west of the peninsula. To find out more see http://www.viaggiareinpuglia.it/ter/PE11/en/Lecce-and-Salento
The mountainous area are scarce and referable to the Dauno Appenino and to Gargano, while the Tavoliere, the Murge and the Salento represent the level and hilly areas. The underground hydrography is consistent: the numerous stratum, both along the coasts and towards the inland, more than being exploited for the irrigations, have generated a really unique tangle of caves and caverns. Some areas have no lakes and rivers, the rainwater seeps into the limestone, often forming caves and sinkholes. The best known and most popular caves nearby are Grotta Zinzulusa or Grotta Dei Cervi
Vineyards, the almond and olive tree are the characteristic plants that adorn the long field expanses but during the summer time, it is the blood red color of the ground that becomes protagonist with the green of the Mediterranean spot. The vegetation of this region is special in every season and worth being visited in all periods of the year.
Puglia is a region that has also crossed dark and poor historical moments, that presently reflect on the humbleness and simplicity of the Puglia life. The Bourbon domination, that has brought a little peace on the region, was soon substituted by Regno d'Italia, which has divided the region in the current provinces.
The architectonical landscape of Puglia, but especial of Salento, recalls the Greece cities for the absolute prevalence of the white houses "a calce", without roof, especially in the countryside and on the coast, while the historical centers are characterized by the leccese baroque and its famous sandstone called "pietra leccese".
It's about a Spanish inheritance of Plateresco, that comparing to the Baroque of the rest of Italy undresses itself of the pictorial excess of insides and transforms the outside façades of the churches and palaces in true sculptured tapestries.
