Tokugawa Art Museum
What is Tokugawa Art Museum
The Tokugawa Art Museum is a private museum in Nagoya's Higashi city within Tokugawa Park. It opened in 1935 in its current location which was the Owari Tokugawa branch's villa. Along with Ookurashokokan Museum and Fujii Saiseikai Yurikan Museum, it is a pioneer of private museums in Japan. Centered around the relics of Tokugawa Ieyasu, tools of the feudal lord are on exhibition, in particular, those of ninth son, Tokugawa Yoshinao, forefather of the Owari Tokugawa branch and leader. The collection includes 9 national treasures, 59 important cultural properties, 46 important artistic properties and is a total of 10,000 pieces. These include, furnishings, swords, table tools, armor, relics of Ieyasu, wedding furniture, tea utensils, calligraphy tools and a wide variety of other tools. In addition, there are collections from Tokugawa shogunate, Hitotsubashi Tokugawa branch, and Hachisukashi. There are collections donated by Nagoya merchant Okaya family, Oowaki family, and Takamatsu family. It is also famous for housing the "Tale of Genji Picture Scrolls", a national treasure. In order to preserve the originals, they are only on display for a short period of time each year. The permanent exhibition building has a Japanese-style roof called "Teikanyoushiki" and Japanese-style exterior, with a western-style interior. It has been registered as a tangible cultural property in Japan. In the permanent exhibition room is an area that recreates part of the Nagoya Castle based on historical research. Using the exhibition space and works of art, the area allows visitors to experience the traditional beauty of Japan in two ways, "configuration beauty" and "assortment of beauty".
Experience Traditional Culture
Walking through the entrance over cobblestones, the park and museum harmonize providing a spacious and relaxing atmosphere. The charm of Tokugawa Art Museum is that it provides a traditional feel, presenting traditional Japanese culture, yet, it is a state of the art facility. Though many private museums in Japan feature collections from businesses and large companies, the Tokugawa Art Museum exhibits tools that have been handed down through the generations of feudal lords. The pieces are also very well preserved. The current collection features historical items owned and used by feudal lords and have been recognized as valuable historical items. In 2004, the adjacent Japanese garden "Tokugawa-en" and Owari Tokugawa literary collection "Nagoyashi Hosabunko Library" reopened. The Tokugawa Art Museum and Nagoya Hosabunko Library provide a place to learn about the history and culture of samurai culture.
By public transportation: At Nagoya Station, take the city bus from Gate 2 towards "Hikarigaoka" or "Itakashako". Get off at the "Tokugawaenshindeki" stop (20 minute ride). The Tokugawa Art Museum is a 3 minute walk from the bus stop. Alternately, from the Meitetsu Bus Center's Gate 4 on the 3rd floor, take the bus toward "Sangenya". Get off at the "Tokugawaenshindeki" stop (20 minute ride). The museum is a 3 minute walk from the bus stop. Visitors can also use "Meguru" Sightseeing Bus which stops at various tourist spots. The busses from Nagoya Station depart every half-hour to one hour on weekdays, and every 20 to 30 minutes on weekends and holidays.

Launch Amazon go app For newly open Amazon Go Store without Cashiers
AMAZON world biggest online shopping platform Launch amazon go app of newly launch Amazon Go store with Amazon employees have been test driving , an experimental convenience Amazon go location Seattle and Washington.
Customer enter by scanning the Amazon Go app installed in Smartphone at a turnstile, when opening plastic doors. When an item is pulled off by customer, it's added to that customer's virtual cart. If the item is placed back on the shelf, it is removed from the virtual cart.
Amazon go is come to let consumers walk in, pick up items and then pay for them without cash ever standing in line at a cashier for pay. Amazon is vague on the mechanics, but the store relies on a mobile app and some of the same sensing technology that powers use in self-driving cars to figure out who want to buy what.
The company had declares the Amazon Go store in December 2016 after launch app the Amazon prime video but open in Jan 2018 now The online retailer opened its Amazon Go store concept to the public Monday in Seattle and Washington, which lets customer can take milk, potato chips or ready-to-eat salads off its shelves and just walk out. Amazon's technology charges customers after they leave.
"It's such a weird experience, because they feel like stealing when they exit from store" said Lisa Doyle, who visited the shop at Monday. But "It's really smart," they said.
'No cashiers, no registers and no cash payment '
The store has other employees, too, who make food, stock shelves and help the customers. On Monday morning, workers were on hand to help shoppers find and download the Amazon Go app and explain them through the exit.
Not everyone can shop at the store: People must have a Smartphone and a debit or credit card they can link to be charged for your order. Amazon said your families can shop together with just one phone scanning everyone in store. Anything they grab from the shelf will also be added to the tab of the person who signed them in. But can't help other strangers people.
Want to replace/return something? Trying it to return a bottle of kombucha Monday didn't mean returning anything to the store – just clicking "return" on the receipt, and a refund was supposed to appear fast. A customer service representative said to throw out or donate the item.
The only sign of the technology that makes these possible swim above the store shelves bunch of small cameras, hundreds of them all around the store. Amazon won't say much about how the system works, other than to say it involves practical computer vision and machine learning software.
The store has other employees, too, who make food, stock shelves and help the customers. On Monday morning, workers were on hand to help shoppers find and download the Amazon Go app and explain them through the exit.
At 1,800 sq. feet, Amazon Go resembles a convenience store, except for a kitchen can visible from the street where sandwiches and ready-to-cook meal kits are prepared. A small section features products from the Whole Foods 365 brand. There's no hot coffee or hot food, but microwaves are available for customers who want to warm something up. Beer and wine are in a cornered-off section where a staffer checks ID before anyone enters.
Most people who spend any time in a supermarket understand how complete the checkout process can be, with block lines for cashiers and customers who fumble happy with self-checkout system.
Actual pilfering is not easy at Amazon Go. With get permission from Amazon, and I tried to trick the store's camera system by wrapping a shopping bag around a $4.35 pack of 4 vanilla soda while it was still on a shelf, tucking it under my arm and walking out of the store. Amazon charged me for it.

We updated our Project Prospect articles today to release v1.1, with a pile of look & feel improvements to the HTML views and links. The most interesting technical addition is the launch of our enhanced RSS feeds, where we have updated our existing feeds for enhanced articles. These now include ontology terms and primary compounds both visually (as text terms and 2D images) and within the RDF - using the OBO in OWL representation and the info:inchi specification mentioned here by Tony only a few weeks ago.
The enhanced entries will soon become more common as we concentrate our enhancements on our Advance Articles, but the current example below from our Photochemical and Photobiological Sciences feed is lovely. RDF code after the jump - just as beautiful to the parents…

Who wrote the books of the Bible has long been a subject of study and debate. One thing that has been tantalisingly out of reach is understanding the personalitie of the writers.
Now though we have the revelation of Polish pop star Dorota Rabczewska. Where would we be without such wisdom and insight?
This week the controversial 26-year-old dismissed the Bible, saying "It is hard to believe in something written by people who drank too much wine and smoked herbal cigarettes". Angry Catholic groups have asked prosecutors to charge her for offending the religious feelings of Jews and Christians.
I just wonder where she got that ideas from.
Should I be enraged? I just find it funny.

I am a great fan of Facebook (when used maturely) and I'm sure to write about this another time. BUT yesterday, for the first time, I read something mildly disturbing on it – I may be an alien! Actually, it made me smile and it is an interesting article.
But not a monkey!
It's all to do with blood, and the Rhesus factor (RH). RH positive blood can be traced back to the rhesus monkey and has a an antigen that simulates the production of antibodies that fight foreign invaders like bacteria and viruses. However, people with RH negative blood (like me) do not carry the same gene and there is no known evolutionary connection or explanation of this fundamental difference. Apparently, 85% of the population of the World have RH positive blood, leaving 15% of us 'weirdos'.
The good news
Apparently RH negative blood provides a natural resistance to things such as HIV, smallpox and bubonic plague (how many people do you know that have been affected by the last two?) although this information has not come from a reliable, scientific source – I will do some research.
The bad news
There is only one disadvantage to being RH negative (apart from being an alien – more later!) and that is during pregnancy, so presumably only 7% of the population and only those who get pregnant. However, it means there us a conflict in the body of a RH negative woman who carries a RH positive baby and so the two are incompatible. This doesn't affect the first pregnancy but can affect subsequent ones. The problem occurs when the mother's blood comes into contact with blood from the RH positive baby because the mother then makes antibodies against the RH factor. However, this doesn't happen during pregnancy as the blood systems are completely separate.
There is a cure
All is not lost because there is cure! The mother is given an injection of RH immunoglobulin (Rhig) which comes from donated blood and prevents the production of RH antibodies.
I know this works
I know this works because if am RH negative and I had 3 RH positive children (they have children of their own and I wonder if any of them are RH negative?). However, I do know of a RH negative acquaintance who had a procedure during pregnancy to give her baby a blood transfusion through the umbilical cord. Wow! Modern medicine is amazing.
The alien theory
So, the alien theory came along because there doesn't seem to be any explanation as to where the RH negative gene came from, or why nature would create a situation where a fetus was regarded as 'alien' and attacked by its own mother. This has given an opportunity to those who believe in aliens to come up with the theory that there must have been either some sexual interaction between humans and aliens in the ancient past, or aliens have been meddling with people's genes (presumably those who were abducted and then returned). There is only a few people who even believe in aliens – right? Wrong! According to a recent YouGov report 52% of people in the UK believe in aliens, 24% are not sure!
Blood donation
There are four common blood types A, B, AB and O. People with RH negative blood can be donors to anyone regardless of their blood group but can only receive their own type. Whatever, your blood type please consider donating your blood. It's a life-saving random act of kindness that we can all do.
Tony Hancock explains
And if you've never seen it, here is a famous piece of comedy by the wonderful Tony Hancock, 'The Blood Donor' which explains everything.
Please Note: : I am an early riser and frequently wake up with thoughts and questions on my mind. I write them down and record them in these short unedited, un-researched, unscientific bits of writing. They are written in a half asleep hypnopompic state and should not be regarded as anything more than what they are – random thoughts and musings.

For 33 years, as the eve of Christmas dawned, a miracle of sorts has happened in Beaver County.
A check for Give-A-Christmas appeared at The Times � a check of large proportions delivered by local miracle workers who go by the unlikely name of the Five Fun Ghouls.
This year, a check for $12,463.28, hand-carried by the troupe, will go a long way to feeding, clothing and providing gifts through the Salvation Army to local neighbors in need.
Over the years, the Five Fun Ghouls have donated more than $300,000 to the holiday program. Donations have provided Christmas celebrations for Beaver County residents in hard times spanning the steel collapse years through today�s economic turmoil.
This night before Christmas 2009, however, the check presentation is bittersweet.
For it will be the last from the Fun Ghouls.
In September, the bunch known for its entertaining of one-line zingers and vaudevillian-type humor lost its ringleader, Rudy LaGatta. LaGatta was preparing to take the stage for a charity performance when he suffered a fatal heart attack.
Many in the Beaver County area were heartbroken at the loss of such a generous spirit as LaGatta. Besides his family, few felt his loss as much as the remaining Ghoul brothers, Henry Bufalini Jr., Joe Patrizi, Donnie Gutierrez, Ray Gutierrez, Lou Michael, Dave Flynn and Rege Dolnak. To a man, they decided that while without LaGatta, their stage days were over, they would finish this year�s campaign and collection.
Bufalini, known as �Buff� to his pals, with the blessing of LaGatta�s wife, Lil, took up LaGatta�s mantle to bring Christmas to needy Beaver Countians for one more season. Buffalini said his best friend � from a kinship forged in the Jones & Laughlin Steel mill � would have wanted him to finish working for his favorite charity, Give-A-Christmas.
Until LaGatta�s passing, the Ghouls had performed at birthday parties, reunions, churches, community events and clubs this year. Every time, they passed the can for Give-A-Christmas. Those who never saw them missed unique hilarity. Audience banter, music of sorts (Bufalini is the only trained musician) and jokes consistently had audiences falling off chairs, barstools and yes (according to LaGatta in years gone by), even rising out of wheelchairs to dance at Friendship Ridge.
Bufalini said the memories of the three-decade run are many and happy. He recalled the troupe even played at a funeral one year due to a willed request. Sometimes the Five Fun Ghouls performed several times a week, sometimes they would start during the holiday season at 1 p.m. with a children�s program and do four performances and end up with a Christmas party in a bar ending at 1 a.m. LaGatta was known for keeping meticulous accounting records on bar tabs. �We spent time away from our own families, but it was a worthy cause and they took it with good graces. It was always done in joy and fun.�
Bufalini said the troupe was christened by an Italian woman at their first performance; they didn�t have a name so she gave them the one that carried the double entendre.
�Over the years, we had some priests and nuns who had a tough time with our names when reading announcements. They would always pause a long while � several beats � between Fun and Ghouls,� he said, his blue eyes twinkling.
LaGatta was the group�s lifeblood, Bufalini said. A Marine, steelworker, refrigeration specialist and even a teacher of refrigeration at the county�s vocational-technical school, he was one of the most giving people he ever met, Bufalini said. �I�ve seen him fix the ice machine at the golf course when there was a match. He was constantly helping someone,� his friend recalled. �I�ve never known a more generous, kind-hearted, funny person,� eulogized Bufalini.
LaGatta, Bufalini and the Five Fun Ghouls always deflected praise of their good works to their contributors. LaGatta�s quote was that Beaver County residents were the most generous and special of all people everywhere. Bufalini added that LaGatta knew that because he was the most generous and special man. �I thank you for an endearing friendship that will live on in my heart always and the hearts of so many.�
On this Christmas Eve, we offer for the last time heartfelt thanks to the Five Fun Ghouls. Christmas morning, children will wake up with gifts because of their mission; seniors will have a Christmas feast; the jobless will be warm and clothed because of them and their Give-A-Christmas quest. Bufalini hopes that someone will pick up the cause�s banner in their own way and more miracles happen.
It has been three decades of smiles and generosity. Godspeed and God bless, Five Fun Ghouls. One can believe on this eve of magic and majesty that Rudy LaGatta is up there with the angels playing his mouth organ in true celebration. (Of course, even St. Peter may be receiving a zinger or two between songs.)
It�s not too late to donate. Please send contributions to: Give-A-Christmas, The Salvation Army, P.O. Box 600, Beaver Falls, PA 15010.

The Christmas season is always a joyous time. It is the season to celebrate our savior�s birth. It is a time of caring, giving and sharing. It is also a time of sadness.
This season, the Five Fun Ghouls are in a time of sadness. We lost our leader, Rudy LaGatta, Sept. 26. Everybody who knew Rudy was touched by his kindness and generosity.
Rudy had a passion for giving and his kindnesses were many. He celebrated the Marine Birthday Party and helped Toys for Tots and many other charities. Rudy�s biggest passion for giving and his favorite charity that he worked on all year long was Give-A-Christmas. He worked all year long performing to raise money for this cause. We lost Rudy on Sept. 26, just as he was getting ready to perform before his biggest audience. In his 50-some years of raising money, he said we raised more than $300,000.
In his honor, we were compelled to finish the year the best we could through donations. With the help of his wife, Lil, we were able to accomplish this.
Thanks to the Fun Ghouls: Henry Bufalini Jr., Joe Patrizi, Donnie Gutierrez, Ray Gutierrez, Lou Michael, Dave Flynn, Rege Dolnack. Also, a special thanks to our wives and families of the Five Fun Ghouls for being so supportive.
I want to take a moment to say what a loss we�ve encountered. Rudy was truly a legend. Let us never forget all the good Rudy has done in raising all that money. He will truly be missed. All the years I played with the group, Rudy never complained. He truly loved doing his job. A good way to honor Rudy would be to contribute in the future. So long, Rudy. It won�t be the same. � Don Gutierrez
Rudy was a composer of polkas. He got no credit for it, but he played one I never heard before. It was a genuine unnamed piece which he might have played for his wife. He loved polkas and marches, especially the Marine Corps Hymn. � Ray Gutierrez
In memory of Rudy LaGatta. Being a member of the Five Fun Ghouls has been one of the best times I�ve had in many years. Playing in so many different places and for many different types of crowds, at parties, reunions and care homes. It always gave these people a fun time to remember. I�ll never forget all the fun and jokes. Thank you for having me as part of the group. God bless you always. � Rege Dolnack
I will never forget the many great times I shared performing with Rudy and the Five Fun Ghouls. Rudy will never be forgotten for all he did to keep the Five Fun Ghouls together for many years. � Lou Michael
Rudy always said Beaver County people are the most generous of all anywhere. They are indeed special. You, my friend Rudy, are the most generous and special. � Henry Bufalini

It is with bittersweet feelings that we present a check for the Give-A-Christmas campaign in the memory of Rudy LaGatta and in honor of the Five Fun Ghouls. We are honored to be a part of the fundraising efforts that have been so important to Rudy and the members of the group for so many years.
It is with sadness that our donation is made in the wake of Rudy�s untimely passing on the night of Sept. 26 as he and the members of the Five Fun Ghouls were preparing to entertain our members at our U.S. JCI Senate Fall Conference at the Airport Holiday Inn in Moon Township. Rudy was stricken just before the group was to take the stage to perform for our members from across the country and subsequently was taken to the hospital. We passed the hat to take up a collection for this donation.
On behalf of the president of the Pennsylvania JCI Senate, Lloyd Lingle, and the Fall Conference co-chairs, Jackie Cornelius and Nancy Salopek, we offer the members of the Five Fun Ghouls, and especially to the memory of Rudy LaGatta, our deepest gratitude for all of the hard work, dedication and enjoyment you have provided the people of Beaver County for all these years.
The last line of the Jaycee Creed states, �We believe that service to humanity is the best work of life.� The Five Fun Ghouls have truly been a perfect example of that belief for decades.

text: Wrestlezone has spoken and Mickie James has defeated Trish Stratus in the final round with a score of 15 to 8. This whole thing was a blast. From start to finish. I want to thank KB for helping me organize everything and to Dagger for helping keep things on track. I want to thank everyone that submitted lists for the seedings. And I especially want to thank everyone that participated start to finish to help make this tourney a huge success. Far beyond what I had hoped for. Perhaps one day in the far but foreseeable future we'll run one again. So congratulations to Mickie James, and her supporters.

The Shocking Ingredients In Your Beer

Did you know that in the USA and other countries, the ingredients in beer are not required by law to be listed anywhere on the label??
Beer is regulated by The Department of Treasury – whereas food and non-alcoholic beverages are regulated by the FDA.
However it is not just USA beers. Guinness, Newcastle Brown and others do not list their ingredients.
According to the intrepid Food Babe – who has done amazing research into this topic – the alcohol industry has lobbied intensely against efforts to require ingredient labeling. Well of course they have! – It figures – because if people knew what they were actually consuming, they would not drink such a concoction – and the companies would lose money! What happened to real beer, made from hops, malt, yeast and water? Do people prefer the "junk" variety?
To be honest, I found the list depressing. Propylene glycol, artificial colors, HFCS. But there's more – a lot more. What's happened in the modern world? Doesn't it matter to them what is in it, or is all fair – so long as it's legal and profitable?
Follow the link to check out the full article and full (scary) list of bad ingredients: http://foodbabe.com/2013/07/17/the-shocking-ingredients-in-beer/

Hey Family August already and the summer is just flying by and so is my money. Here's what I mean it's hard for me to be a Cheap Cheetah in the summer time because I find myself wanting to do stuff like go on vacations that cost money. Why is it in the summer things cost more then the winter time? I am more of an impulsive buyer in the summer and I watch my pennies in the winter. Here's a perfect example of what I am talking about. In October I am going on a cruise and that's pretty cheap but the hotel that I have to stay in the night before the cruise is costing me $200 Bucks!!! That's right I said $200 bucks and can you believe that that is the cheapest hotel I can find without it being a dump. Now the Cheap Cheetah in me would have said find something cheaper that a little above the dump hotels that you see. But the spender in me says it's only money go for it. So I did.
Let's not talk about my new addiction shopgoodwill.com. The way I have spent money on their site their summer I might owe them by kidney to pay for some of my purchases. This is not a good summer spending wise for Me a Cheap Cheetah So how's your summer going? Have A Great Cheap Cheetah Week!

We desire to be as GREEN as possible and are dedicated to providing you with environmentally-friendly cleaning practices offering non-toxic GREEN clean products. Because we understand not everybody's needs are the same we also offer industrial strength cleaning products formulated with specific ingredients that create powerful results. Take your Saturday mornings back by letting us maintain a clean healthy home for you.
Animal dander and dust mites are primary causes of allergies and asthmatic reactions, making good house keeping practices all the more important for pet owners. All vacuums we use are equipped with HEPA filtration systems improving your home's indoor air quality and making your home a healthier environment for your family and pets.
We offer an amazing level of cleanliness with chemical-free, fume-free vapor steam cleaning. We take cleaning seriously by steam cleaning all non-carpeted floor areas. Vapor cleaning sanitizes using only hot water, that kills bacteria, germs, mold, and dust mites.
To prevent cross contamination we have designated different colored cloths for cleaning each room of your house. We use only the highest quality micro fiber cleaning cloths, with individual split micro fibers to pick up more dust and dirt .
What's in your mattress? Dust mites live on dead skin cells regularly shed from humans and pets. One gram of house dust contains approximately 1,000 dust mites. That same gram of dust can have up to 250,000 fecal pellets. Millions of dust mites live in your mattress. Having your mattress cleaned by vapor steam sanitizes your bed and kills dust mites.

Who's Afraid of the Big Panda? As Google broadens its authority in search indexing, the face of SEO is about to get a major rehaul.
Google Panda issues have been a crucial matter among SEO specialists. Following the elimination of numerous content farms and duplicate sites, Google Panda has been a trending topic within SEO communities. Burning the content farms across the web is nothing new; a year ago Google introduced Caffeine which is considered the undisputed indexing system. Google's Caffeine has paved the way for significant improvements in search algorithms. One of Caffeine's brilliant functions was its ability to crawl and index content in real time.
The Mayday update came next which returned quality results for long-tail queries. Mayday affected Ecommerce websites and sites with built around item-level URLs standing on lean content and separated by a number of clicks from higher-authority pages. But this wasn't enough, Google improved its search indexing with Google Panda to give users quality results and omit duplicate sites. Google Panda or Farmer has made its impact felt on 12% of total searches. While Mayday's forte was with long-tail quality, Google Panda covers aspects like authority, trust, credibility, and user signals (social).
It's been a standard to monitor overall site indexing on every widely-used search engine. Sites need SEO strategies to be indexed and well-indexed sites should be maintained to sustain their rankings. But with post-Panda era, indexing as a metric is not viable anymore and Google considers the index as insignificant as long as their databases carry the URL. Google Panda has brought about several SEO issues, for instance, indexation has been fair but organic search traffic plummeted 50%.
Here are some tips from the site Search Engine Land:
- Decide which URLs are canonical and create strong signals (rel canonical, robot exclusion, internal link profile, XML sitemaps)
- Decide which URLs are your most valuable and ensure they are indexed and well optimized
- Remove any extraneous, overhead, duplicate, low value and unnecessary URLs from the index
- Build internal links to canonical, high-value URLs from authority pages (strong mozRank, unique referring domains, total links, are example metrics)
- Build high-quality external links via social media efforts
With Google Panda emerging as a game-changer for SEO, The SEO model has been revamped in the sense that instead of having as many URLs as you can get indexed, only the highest-quality and most important URLs are indexed.

I.M. Skaugen SE (IMSK) has recently agreed to sell its 50% interest in SPT activities to a subsidiary of Teekay Corp. Teekay currently owns the other half of the business in a joint venture with IMSK.
The Board of Directors from each of the companies have approved binding term sheets that are subject to standard closing conditions. The transactions are expected to be closed by 31 July 2015.
As part of this transaction, IMSK will acquire the right to purchase two multigas type gas carriers of 12 000 m3, built in 2011, which the company currently leases from Teekay LNG Partners LP.
The divestment of IMSKs share in the joint venture of the SPT activities will improve the group's balance sheet and working capital position. It will also enable the company to better execute its LNG strategy. Acquiring the rights to purchase the two LNG carriers will enable IMSK to further develop its core business activities – to provide logistics solutions for seaborne regional distribution of liquefied gases such as LNG.
Further details will be made available when the transaction is closed and by release of 2Q results in August 2015.

Honey doesn't spoil like other foods and even if it has turned cloudy, it's still safe to eat. While you may be used to seeing clear, golden honey, cloudy honey is normal and natural. Clouding is caused by crystallization of the sugars and doesn't affect the taste or safety of the honey and is reversible. If the honey is in a jar, you can warm it on the stove. Otherwise, you can microwave it to get rid of the cloudiness.
Things You'll Need
- Pan
- Spoon
- Instant-read thermometer
Video of the Day
Loosen the lid to the honey jar.
Place the container in a pan of water on the stove. Turn the stove burner on low heat and gradually warm the honey. Monitor the water temperature with an instant-read thermometer and make sure it doesn't go above 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Stir the honey with a spoon a few times as it warms.
Remove the honey from the heat once it turns clear. Allow it to cool and then replace the lid.

Greetings from Utah! I'm Megan. With a degree in Dietetics from Brigham Young University and a passion for helping people have healthy food relationships, I consider myself a nutritional ally. I combine evidence-based science, a dash of alternative medicine, and a large dose of practical food preparation to teach friends how to feed themselves and their families nourishing meals with common ingredients. That being said, a lot of how I feel about food comes from my belief in God as the Creator of all things—particularly food. I believe we, as His children, should eat the food He has provided us in its most natural form. I am a busy mother of four young children, so healthy eating is also no-nonsense at our house. Meals have to be planned, fresh, and FAST in order to keep up with our busy lifestyle.
In my leisure, I enjoy bike riding, jogging, dabbling in music composition, and game nights with friends. Most of my time in the summer is spent pulling weeds out of my garden and flower beds. I entice the kids to help me by singing along to Pandora's Disneyland channel—because it makes work seem like a game. During the school year, I am busy with carpools, piano practice, and homework. I volunteer in our church's Primary program, and I direct a neighborhood children's choir called the "Musical Minions".

Stacks of things to be sorted and sold......
Rather daunting stack isn't it?! There is a table under there but there is still a lot 'stuff''. There has also been organizing done in my stash. Mainly putting away what has come my way lately.....
Uninspiring photo I know but it is so nice to have everthing organized again and not falling out every time I disturbed the equilibrium. Look at this stack of loveliness.....
Yummy Melly & Me fabrics. I have a secret squirrel project organized for that stack of deliciousness. While scrounging in my stash I found these little stacks of hexagons.
They are lovely and I did get a little distracted playing with them. I got one of my lovely little monkeys finished and it has already been adopted out. It all happened so fast and I didn't get time for a photo. Sorry peeps! The monkey has gone to a good home because she was hugged and snuggled upon adoption and even had her seat belt put on for her journey home.
These stacks are awaiting some button hole stitching and one of the piles is waiting for me to lay them out ready to sew together. Hopefully they will look like cubes when I am finished with them! Any way that is what is in my space today! Stacks.

Loving the stacks, screams organised. I have stacks of fabric bolts, i'm clearing out all my fabric for the next market, it's huge but chopping fabric is a great task with 6-8 children here still on school holidays. Canberra goes back next week . . . i love school holidays, eldest starting hihg school, it's the big time now. Love Posie

It is so satisfying to be tidy. It is also amazing how much time you have and what you get done when there is no TV on. Thanks for sharing. Charmaine

Don't you find sorting stacks only creates more stacks just in another part of the home....looks like you are finding some hidden treasures in your sorting though.

When I was in the thinking stages for this blog (which took up way too much brain power and time), I envisioned gathering all the good food deals and creating a week of meal planning ideas.
I also envisioned cooking and creating yummy, delicious, and easy recipes with gorgeous food-blog worthy pictures to go with them.
I can snap a picture with my phone and upload it, but that's all you get at this stage. Sorry guys.
Nevertheless, I intend to keep the momentum that I started and make progress. One of the ways I'd like to do that is to come up with a few meal ideas and include recipes that will use the items on sale and help you make easy dinners and avoid the drive-thru at least one extra time each week.
And I would really super love it if you would chime in with some ideas of your own and/or share what has worked for you now or in the past. Please.
Here's the Kroger healthier deals this week:
Kroger frozen vegetables 10/$10
Kroger butter $2.49 (organic is best, but if you are still using plastic, i.e. margarine, please, please switch to butter!)
Horizon organic milk $5.99 gal.
Plum Organics baby food 8/$10
Kroger cottage cheese and sour cream 2/$4 (organic from grass-fed cows is best, but still a good option for a natural food choice or condiment.)
Organic Gala or Fuji apples $1.59/lb.
Organic navel oranges 10/$10
Pork loin $1.99/lb. (local organically raised pork is best, but if you have a choice between a Big Mac or this pork loin, definitely go for the pork loin. It's easy to fix and really delish.)
Private Selection turkey $.88/lb. Great to cook and then debone/shred to freeze in 1 lb. blocks for fast and easy casseroles and salads when money is tight or you need extra for taking dinner to a new mom or sick friend. I don't know if this turkey is antibiotic/hormone free, so use at your discretion.
Laura's lean ground beef $4.99/lb. (hormone free, sustainably farmed)
Kroger carries organic potatoes and you can get a small bag for about the same as you would pay for the ones that contain more pesticide than you'd care to eat. If you like potatoes, keep an eye out for these to go on sale. Potatoes aren't the healthiest of foods; but let's face it.. sometimes you just need some good ol' home fries.
Ken's salad dressing is 50% off this week, too. Great price if you need something to go with your organic salad greens *wink*. The problem with most dressing is they are typically made with canola (most of the US canola is from GM seed) and has high fructose corn syrup. I went through the whole aisle of dressing in Food Lion last week looking for a bleu cheese dressing that would be sorta-kinda okay to go with the buffalo chicken dip my husband wanted. Many had HFCS as the first ingredient! Really?! I walked out with none because it just made me angry.
I keep telling my husband I am going to start making dressing. I mean, the Food Channel cooks make it look easy, why can't I? Wisk the vinegar and herbs with olive oil and voila! Right? Someday.
If you go to Coupon Mom or The Frugal Find, they will already have all the specials and match them up with the coupons you have been collecting over the last few weeks so you can find some amazing bargains with your basic groceries (You have been clipping coupons, right?).
The trick to making the most of coupon matchups is to only select the items that you will actually use and avoid buying 18 packages of Irish Spring and 25 boxes of Trix. While there is wisdom in emergency preparedness, don't spend every last penny you have for your family's grocery budget on stockpiling only to discover you have nothing to eat for the week except Trix.
Last week I went through Coupon Mom and sorted the Kroger and Food Lion matchups by % savings. This showed me the best deals at the top. Out of that list, I sought items that I could use this week for cooking, snacks, and meals. I also checked to see what I already had on hand. I then created a workable list that saved me maximum amount of money and gave me something to work with for a week's worth of lunches and dinners. I already had a decent amount of items on hand for breakfast.
It was long, hard work, but I am really happy with the results. I got $149.72 worth of groceries for $86.65 for a savings of 42%. Not everything I got was on sale, but the items I got for super cheap allowed me a little leeway in getting those items that weren't on sale and I still managed to cut my grocery costs nearly in half. My biggest splurge was a big bag of organic frozen fruit that I could mix with my Wellness Resources Protein Plus powder I intend to start using for my breakfast and lunch.
Before I left for the store, I put all items on my list in categories on a Word document: Fruit, veggies, meat, sides, snacks, ingredients, condiments, and other. It gave me a better visual to ensure that I was getting a good mix of items that worked together for meals. How often do you shop specials and coupons and come home to realize you have nothing to eat? I've done that more than I'd like to admit.
What meal ideas do you have based on this week's specials?

to help improve their English language. These courses are called ESOL (English
for Speakers of Other Languages).
ESOL courses cover:
These courses are available in many colleges and learning centres in most of the
towns and cities in the United Kingdom, and can be studied either part-time or full-time.
ESOL-Skills for Life course is usually offered at five levels – Entry 1, Entry 2,

The roll top cabinet is finally finished!
As I described in an earlier post, this piece was inspired by a "Dentist's Desk" I had seen at a friend's house. I liked the unusual look of the roll top, with its quick vertical drop after a tight-radius curve. Most roll tops seem to drop at a much more gentle angle. I also liked the beveled fronts on the shallow drawers, and while not copied, I incorporated a similar style to this piece.
I built this cabinet from quarter-sawn white oak, which remains my favorite wood to use for furniture. It is very stable with little movement, provides a tough surface, takes a finish well, and looks great, too.
This was my first attempt at making a roll top. The concept always seemed pretty straight-forward, but I wasn't sure how to go about making something that would actually slide up and down freely. So many roll top desks seem to be very difficult to operate. When it was nearing completion, I waxed the track the tambor rides in, and waxed the tambor itself. I was very pleased with the way it moves — it works better than I had hoped.
The piece is finished to match the kitchen table and chairs I made a few years back. (with two more chairs currently in the works.) Once sanded and assembled, I covered the cabinet with a large piece of plastic, and set a bowl of ammonia in the enclosure. The fumes from the ammonia darken the wood. The longer the exposure, the darker the piece will get. I fumed this piece for about 4 hours. When removed from the ammonia tent, (and when the smell goes away) the white oak takes on a bit of a gray tint. To bring a bit of warmer tones to the finish, I then apply a coat of garnet shellac. I used a 1.5 lb. cut of shellac, and applied it as a hand-rubbed finish. I then applied 5 coats of General Finishes Oil and Urethane, also hand-rubbed, with very light sanding between coats. The final coat was not sanded, but was followed by a coat of Renaissance Wax.
The piece appears to have doors at the bottom. This is actually a drawer front, designed to hold a recycling container. I am not sure what inspired this little design detail, but it works well.
I am pleased with the way the cabinet turned out. One other little feature which I have not photographed yet is a "charging station" which goes inside the roll top to the left of the dividers. This has USB and 110v plug-ins for charging phones, tablets, cameras etc. I will try to get a picture of that soon.
This was a fun project to take on, from design through completion. I got my first experience making tambor for the roll top, I got to use my 18″ band saw to resaw the wood for the side panels, I made a jig to cut the bevels on the drawer fronts, got a lot of use from my recently-acquired smoothing plane, and managed to match the finish on other pieces. With a little modification, this design could easily become a desk (like the piece that inspired it) or even a stand up desk. The basic dimensions for this piece are: 53″ tall (38″ to the inside top surface) x 34″ wide x 18″ deep.

OSAI has announced that it now provides its OPENcontrol to BTB Transfer Systems giving its customers the opportunity to retrofit and revamp existing transfer systems. This creates efficient and cost-effective productivity improvements at approximately 60% of old system cost while maintaining machining tolerance to within 0.002 mm, a new platform that matches the existing machine, and with future expandability.
BTB Transfer SPA, located in Bovezzo BS, Italy, has more than 850 installations operated by 150 different customers in 30 countries, BTB Transfer technology utilizes highly productive and precise rotating table systems for NC drilling, milling, cutting, broaching and marking. The chip cutting and material removal process operates at high speed producing large volume of precision-machined parts. Applications include complex components machined from steel, aluminum, brass, cast iron and other materials for use in vehicular, appliance, plumbing, heating and air conditioning applications. Components include a variety of valves, connectors and fittings that are critical to a system's reliable operation. When component changes are required, the OSAI OPENcontrol allows for retrofitting and revamping these transfer systems quickly and simply.
Alessandro Aletto, BTB Transfer Service Manager reported, "One of our longtime customers operating a 20-year-old BTB 8S-15U-CN-HY NC transfer system needed a system upgrade. Following a market analysis of available products, they identified OSAI as the best supplier that offered a flexible, scalable and modular solution for their production revamping that would guarantee high performance."
BTB Transfer's customer machine had 7 stations, plus 1 station for parts loading/unloading, on which there were 15 operating units. Those units managed all drilling/threading stages and the grooving cycle while finishing the gasket holders, however with low cycle time.
OSAI's solution for improved cycle time was the OPEN-XL CNC with several bridge modules and a 17-inch touchscreen monitor. The OPENcontrol family is made with highly scalable CNCs, based on different hardware platforms. So the OPEN-XL selected by the customer had capacity to manage up to 24 machining processes with 12 simultaneously interpolated axes per process for a total number of 64 axes.
The original configuration of the machine added 2 operating units and 10 inverters managed by using EtherCAT fieldbus and a safety PLC. OSAI's printed circuit boards implement the fieldbus and are based on Ethernet, which allow the management of a wide range of devices controlled by different protocols (OS-Wire, Mechatrolink III, Mechatrolink I & II, EtherCAT), in addition to auxiliary fieldbuses such as CANopen, Profibus and Modbus.
"BTB Transfer recommended upgrading the transfer system using the most powerful CNC in order to best manage all the processes involved and to guarantee performance and gaining greater product scalability," reported Aletto. "This led to maximum optimization of the entire process for the highest level of productivity from the transfer system. "Initially, the customer sought only to update the NC but realized that two new operating units had to be added (one for drilling and the other for tapping). That was in addition to the change of spindles with inverters, so that system speed could be easily set."
OSAI's Dual Core CPU of the OPEN-XL offers high computational power, especially for development of complex applications on multi-process machines like BTB Transfer systems having various axes. It is important to note that the versatile software architecture with dual O.S. (Windows CE and WES7) gives simultaneous execution on the same hardware, of both real-time CNC applications and generic Windows software.
"Upgrade wiring of BTB transfer systems was easily accomplished with the compact 6-axis bridges, each one having 64 inputs and outputs, which was another highly scalable feature of the OSAI OPENcontrol system," reported Aletto.
