text: A really fun idea for feeding kids with out all the mess is to make a simple stir fry using lots of vegetables and either steamed rice or noodles, adding meat like chicken or pork is a option as well. These quick and healthy meals go into little to-go boxes served with a pair of chop sticks, the kids love it and think its a cool way to eat. Leftovers go right into the fridge or the boxes can even be packed for school lunch or after school sports. The meal is over and you have only one or two pans to clean. The boxes can be found at Asian markets or warehouse restaurant food & supply stores.

Attention Guardsman! We have good news and better news. The good news is that, following critical casualties, your regiment will be returning to full strength. The better news is that this will be accomplished by merging your regiment with the Catachan 784th "Roaring Devils".
Due to some mild cultural differences between your regiments, this may require some readjustment on your part. In particular, Catachan regiments are known for their rough turns of phrase and robust approach to authority figures. Thankfully, the Regimental Standard, with the aid of legendary Etiquette-Commissar Klaus Albericht, have provided a phrasebook in order to make this transition as smooth as possible.
"Emperor dammit, Guardsman! Clear the LZ before I make one for my boot on your [Expunged]!"
Please vacate the area for your own safety, and for that of your comrades!
"You hive-soft blue-blood! That plan's dumber than a Catachan Devil – after I've sawed it's head off!"
I respectfully disagree with your current course of action.
"Light the fething maggots up!"
I humbly petition the commander to authorise the use of flamer weapons.
"Who's the new bolt-magnet?"
I notice the Wyrdvane Psykers have been reinforced!
"I'm not letting these toy soldiers get all the glory. Charge!"
Move to support the Militarum Tempestus with all due haste!
"Be very still. Spooks can smell fear and you reek of it, greenie"
Courage, comrade! The Lictor lurks – steel your heart.
Emperor's teeth, hangman! You didn't have to shoot him!
Commissar, as always I commend your course of action despite some mild discomfort.
"Ammo? The only guns we need are right here" (Usually followed by flexing)
I feel this enemy would be best confronted in close combat in order to conserve resources.
You'll be speaking like a Catachan in no time, Guardsman! You have also been issued with a copy of the Catachan Crier, a mildly edited version of the Regimental Standard which is just as informative as this august publication – only with more advice on personal fitness and cooking.
Please note that your regimental absorption will mean immediate assignment to death world duty without the usual training – we recommend reading our ever-useful article on the matter, and following the example of your new comrades**
* Commissar Klaus Albericht's works include The Complete Etiquette Guide for Dining with Mordians: Volume 1: Pre-dinner Drinks and Appetisers, The Complete Etiquette Guide for Dining with Mordians: Volume 2: Second and Third Courses, The Complete Guide to Combat with the Heretic Astartes When They Invade an Otherwise Superb Formal Mordian Dinner, and The Complete Etiquette Guide for Dining With Mordians Volume 3: Dessert, Brandy, and Commemorating the Fallen.
** Purely tactical. Emulating the manners or personal hygiene of the Catachans will be punished by flogging.

Processing and interpreting huge volume data that is in motion (fast data) to get timely answer is challenging and sometimes infeasible due to the scarce of resources (both human and computational). Human attention is limited. According to the authors, a new generation analytic system is needed to bridge the gap between limited human attention and growing volume of data. This new type of analytic system will prioritise attention in fast data. In this paper, authors have proposed three design principles that can be used to design and develop such fast data analytic system:
Principle 1: Prioritise Output – The design must deliver more information using less output.
Fast data analytic system should produce fewer and good quality output. If a system produces lot of raw (output) data, then it becomes difficult for a human to give attention. For example, if the end result is to find out which device is producing more problematic records, then it would be ideal if the system can simply return the device id with the count of records rather than producing every raw problematic record. According to the authors – "A few general results are better than many specific results".
Principle 2: Prioritise Iteration – The design should allow iterative feedback-driven development.
Modern analytics workflows consist of many steps – including feature engineering, model selection, parameter tuning, and performance engineering. It is difficult to get the final model at first attempt. This means that analytics system should empower the end users by giving them necessary tools so that they can improve these steps iteratively based on the feedback. Today this is very labour intensive and time-consuming task. Fast data analytics system should lower this barrier. Fast data system should be designed for modularity and incremental extensibility.
Principle 3: Prioritise Computation – The design must prioritise computation on inputs that most affect its output.
One of the key property of fast data is – not all inputs contribute equally to the output. Therefore, it is waste of valuable computational resource if the system gives equal importance to all inputs. But how will fast data system select these inputs that contribute most to the output? According to authors – "fast data systems should start from the output and work backwards to the input, doing as little work as needed on each piece of data, prioritizing computation over data that matters most".
Authors have built a new fast data analysis engine called MacroBase based on the principles outlined above. At present MacroBase's core dataflow pipelines contain a sequence of data ingestion, feature extraction, classification, and explanation operators. These operators perform tasks including feature extraction, supervised and unsupervised classification, explanation and summarisation. MacroBase can process data as it arrives. It can also process data in batch mode.
Users can engage at three interface levels with MacroBase:
- Basic: Web based graphical user interface. This one is an easy interface.
- Intermediate: Custom pipelines configuring using Java.
- Advanced: Custom dataflow operators using Java/C++.
These interfaces will enable users of varying skill levels to quickly obtain the initial results and further improve result quality by iteratively refining their analyses. Users can highlight the key performance metrics (like, power drain, latency) and metadata attributes (like, hostname, device id). MacroBase reports explanations of the abnormal behaviour. For example, MacroBase may report that queries running on host 5 are 10 times more likely to experience high latency than the rest of the cluster. MacroBase is currently doing mostly anomaly or outlier detection, it is not doing any deep machine learning training.
Today we collect large volume of data in analytical platform. Some of these data are never read. Sometimes we may go back and analysis these data to find the root cause of the problem after it happened. Moreover, tools that we use to do these kinds of analysis are not easily accessible and process is time consuming. I think, these design principles provide good guidance which can be used to design and build a new generation analytics engine which can process huge volume of data and produce good quality output in timely manner.

Faith rushes Templar peacekeepers to embattled eta guilds in the south
August 13, 2007
[begin transmission]
Faith has relocated its Garrison-at-Fields-of-Jigo and stepped up its offensive against anti-eta combatants attacking guild interests in the south, sending hundreds of additional Knights Templar to the province of Ulsu, where fighting in recent days left at least 25 apprenticed to Guild Textilus Group dead.
A similar number of militants from the anti-eta linked Llyr and Moro Dothn Kindred were killed in two fierce gunbattles after an ambush on a Guild Textilus Group supply convoy on Jolo Island, in the same province.
Apostolic Prefect alphaArroyo Ruth Helena ordered the relocation of the Fields-of-Jigo Templar base to Boanga, a city in near Ulsu. The cardinal tribuni and several senior primus have been dispatched there to coordinate what is being described as a massive military operation against the combatants. Disgruntled familial gangs, who have taken to violent protest against Guild Brotherhood and House eta operations seen as complicit in the etaSade scandal, have paralyzed the region.
Two battalions will be pulled out from the central and northern Arcadia, where they have been fighting Kindred criminal guerrillas, and deployed to Ulsu, said a Faithful Templar spokesman.

Profile: The Archangel
August 12, 2007
The voices in His head chimed like an unbroken chorus of song.
He was aware of not only His immediate surroundings, but also of being many different places at the same moment, across several different continuums, and across space and time. When he looked across the landscape, He did not see the expansive primitive grasslands or the brilliant gaseous giant that hung in the sky. He saw complex carbon compounds, amino acids, charged electrons and energy-matter convergence.
He saw the evolving mathematical precision of Creation.
He was certainly conscious of the struggling primate cub a short distance away. He heard its wailing in the tall reeds of grass.
It did not interest Him.
He was certainly aware of the group of primates foraging for food along a nearby ridge and the cub's mother panicked at discovering her missing son.
It did not interest Him.
He knew the proto-humans would be moving on soon. They had to. They would extend their search for the cub as long as they could, but the survival of the group depended on finding subsistence and shelter and avoiding predators.
The life of a single cub was not as important as the life of the entire group.
Then, inexplicably, out of some distant sensibility, He turned. He took the cub in his arms and gazed into its bewildered eyes. He showed it the world, the landscape, the ridge where the other primates were and its relationship to them. He set the cub down and watched it scurry in the direction of its fellow proto-humans.
The voices in His head momentarily, ever so slightly, paused.

In Aideena society, the female gender is revered.
Procreation is viewed as the divine gift of The Goddess and as a mirror of Creation–the stars, galaxy and natural world as sparked into being from the Big Band and forward. Women are entrusted with the perpetuation of the species. Therefore, women deserve a higher position in the grand order of the Universe.
Because of this ethic, Aideena society evolved into a matriarchy. Only women can own real estate. Wealth, title and position are passed from mother to daughter. Over time, economic and political pressures have forced more equitable adaptations between the sexes. Still,basic cultural norms favor the feminine.

The Templar standard-issue weapon uses legally-sanctioned technology called pulson and fires highly dense kinetic energy pulses. It is commonly referred to as The Peacekeeper, manufactured as a sidearm, a rifle, and a cannon. The Peacekeeper's various settings are capable of rendering unconsciousness, disrupting electrical fields, bursting organs, or shattering solid matter. Pulson technology is proprietary to Faith.
Eta electorate refuse to unseat Matriarch
August 12, 2007
[begin transmission]
House eta Electorate of Governesses has unanimously vetoed a summons for a Vote of No Confidence by lower households, effectively affirming the sovereignty of the Matriarch. The act assures that the Matriarch will not be forced to abdicate following revelations of corruption, murder and criminal misconduct involving the First Husband, senior House eta authorities and Guilds under their influence.
The Matriarch continues to deny any knowledge or direct involvement in First Husband Edmund etaSade's alleged role in the illegal human labor trafficking conspiracy that has rocked Aideena. The Parliamentary investigation ordered by Faith has yet to uncover evidence contradicting the Matriarch's position.
The lack of evidence has not healed the division the scandal has caused between lower and higher eta Households. Nor has it shielded the Matriarch from severe criticism by the other Great Houses, most vocally House omega and House rho.
Lower eta households, whose poorer clans were largely the victims of the conspiracy, hold that abdication by the Matriarch is necessary to diffuse tribal retaliation, or Sh'Karee, and further harm to the reputation of House eta. In the wake of the conspiracy's disclosure, anti-eta sentiment was fueled street violence and vandalism toward House eta property and Guild operations in several eta domains.
The Electorate's veto is widely condemned by lower household matriarchs as indicative of the Matriarch's failing to assume responsibility for her court's conduct and a further conspiracy to protect wealthier matrons and their families likely complicit in etaSade's crimes.

The Echo Park neighborhood council has given its blessing to one of the largest residential developments proposed for the area – a 214-unit residential complex that would rise as tall as five stories and stretch for nearly 700 feet along Sunset Boulevard. But while the council endorsed the project last week, it was clear that many board members who supported the complex would have preferred a much smaller development. Several Board members and residents expressed concern that the Sunset Gateway on the eastern tip of the neighborhood would encourage similar, large-scale projects that could change the character of Echo Park and hasten the pace of gentrification. "Where is the Echo Park flavor?," asked one person at last week's council meeting. "All we are doing is helping [the developer] price us out of our own neighborhood."
However, the developer, Aragon Properties of Canada, won kudos from several board members and residents for working with the community to modify its development, with the architects adding brick to the facade, shaving a few feet of the height and making other changes to reduce the mass of two large structures. The developers added ground floor retail and commercial space, and set aside 15 units for low-income tenants. But the while board members said the changes resulted in a better development, it was still too big.
Board members and some residents pointed out that the council as well as the city was powerless in some respects because state law allows developers to build larger than normal projects if they provide units for low-income residents.
"This is still a huge building in the middle of a historic area," said Jennifer Deines, who was part of a group of residents who formed in opposition to the project. But in light of restrictions imposed by state law, "it turned out the best it could be."
Board member Cheryl Ortega said the development reflects a different kind of Echo Park, one with little room for low-income residents and large families. "Its showing the face of a different community," said Ortega of Sunset Gateway.
The council's vote is only a recommendation; final approval rests with the city's Planning Department. Public hearings are expected to be held in April and May. Construction on the project is anticipated to begin next spring, with construction taking about 18 months, according to a consultant working on the project.

This weekend was wonderful. T and I went to the delicious dinner theater, Saturday was an impromptu theme park trip and Sunday we spent all morning with his family and all evening with each other. It's always sad when he leaves.
For our one-year dating anniversary, I got T a charcoal grill. I can't tell you how much use we've gotten out of it since then, but we've definitely gone through 2-3 bags of charcoal. As such, we have decided to make Sundays grilling days.
Now, I don't eat steak. Don't like it. Chicken? Chicken is delicious. Fish, yum. Occasional burger, but this severely limits my grilling capabilities. Luckily, T has gotten the art of grilling chicken down to a science. He truly is a grill master.
This dinner plate was so full of delicious. We often collaborate when grilling in that I will make the sides which leaves him to focus on the meat. He marinated the chicken in Caribbean Jerk marinade that had a splash of soy sauce in it (all gluten free! check your marinade before you use it… surprisingly the one I had had soy sauce in it!). It was so juicy and delicious that I saved it as my last bite. (I am a big supporter of the idea that the last bite should be the thing you want your mouth to taste like after you're done eating. Save the best for last!
To make the asparagus easy to grill, I wrapped it in tin foil with some olive oil, roasted red pepper flakes and salt and pepper. I was a little heavy-handed on the red pepper, but it was still good! The quinoa is from a container (I can't remember who makes it, but I found it at Harris Teeter for about $6. The container said it would feed 4 but it would definitely give a good sized serving to 6-8!) and had sliced almonds and raisins in it and was delicious.
Dinner was… yum. But the best part of the meal was definitely dessert.
These were… so incredible. T was giggling with pleasure (which is hilarious to watch and something I've never seen before). The peaches were juicy and so well complimented by the vanilla bean ice cream… YUM.
to make: Cut peaches in half and pit them (I am not good at this that is why they aren't halves but are in fact slices. This works just as well!)
make a basting mixture of the following:
2Tbsp reduced balsamic vinegar (you can buy this or make it by cooking balsamic vinegar in a pan on the stove on very LOW heat. it's a slow process but so worth it. it brings out the flavors and makes it thicker. very good)
1Tbsp maple syrup
1Tbsp vanilla
1Tbsp apricot/peach/passion fruit jam (or some other citrusy jam)
1/4 tsp cracked black pepper
place the peaches on the grill, brush the tops with the mixture, flip, brush again. when both sides have slight grill marks, take them off the grill, put in bowls and top with vanilla bean ice cream.
I highly recommend them as a dessert. They were light and refreshing and a great way to end a summer night. Needless to say, these will be made again. T actually said he wants to make it for my family the next time we go to visit, and wants to make my sister jealous (even though her husband is a chef!!!)
Everything above is gluten free and was delicious. YUM
All in all, it was a fantastic weekend and life is good. 😀

The road to Colorado from 1111 Williams Blvd in Springfield IL is a long and very straight one, not counting the northern detour to Iowa City, Iowa to pick up fifth passenger. My lovely lady friend Hannah and her lovely precious family reluctantly agreed to let me tag along with them to the big square mountain state (not Wyoming) after they discovered me hiding in the midst of luggage piles in the back of their rented Chrysler suburban. I hopped up to the backseat, put on a blanket, read my book, and vicariously watched silent Parks and Recreation on Hannah's laptop screen from across the way for 7 hours of Saturday and 7 hours of Sunday.
Admittedly, I ignored most of Illinois. We've seen it all, really. In snowless December there was a preamble to the Midwestern journey in the form of unrelenting flatness of long since harvested cornstalks. Hundreds of thousands of thin brown rows exploded past the rear window at somewhere around 80 mph speeds, marking our progress field by field, cow by cow. That was to be the theme everywhere until Colorado, when mysterious green and brown lands (also harvested) began to roll over on top of the spears of dead cornstalks.
Iowa, surprisingly, has a number of sizable hills, particularly in the southwestern corner where it spills its highways into Missouri and Nebraska. That number is around 6, and all of them provided a beautiful change of pace. Entering Iowa City, our big ass suburban was greeted by San Francisco-esque hills that turned houses on their sides and threatened the bouncy balls of every kid in town. I've never been to San Francisco, so doubtless its actual hills were nowhere near in comparison, but it felt that way in respect to lands I've known in the past — lands where the geological zit Centennial Hill is established as a local landmark.
We started Day 2 in some nameless town past Lincoln, Nebraska — it had a Hampton Inn and that is all I know. Nebraska is the oft-ridiculed driver's nightmare that extends for hellish miles across the rectum of the Midwest. If the Mississippi River divides the East and the West America for wagon settlers, it's Nebraska and Kansas that separates it for the automobile traveler. This is, however, a place I've only traversed once, and, not having the responsibility of chasing an infinite horizon at the wheel of the car, I was free to drift off as I pleased and peacefully observe the surrounding countryside as a new experience to me.
Winter is nature's dressing room, and I drank in all its naked trees and barren earth, all with lascivious eyes. Something about winter landscapes, even without snow, no especially without snow, is captivating. It's earth in the raw, with ice that creeps up against the edges of the more still-watered ponds and gives off two different reflections — the clear light blue one of the sky off the liquid water, and the dark royal blue against the ice. The rest of the view is brown; brown earth has by this point given up all attempts at photosynthesis and waits in frost for a layer of clean snow that hasn't come yet. So it's a transition period — from green summer and fireworks autumn to winter, from foraging mammals to long hibernation, from birds to no birds.
Nebraska wasn't all that bad, then. There was one picturesque scene. Over an endless expanse of wheat clipped at the knees was scattered a few groves of leafless trees, and beside the highway a wood and wire fence, behind which was a small manmade pond, around which grew cattails and the like. Prepositions. And off a little ways in the distance, a freight train chugged across the landscape carrying a hundred million red and yellow boxcars. It was so perfectly American Gothic that I almost puked up corn and nearly choked on chunks of hard-working industry. What a bastion of all-American progress. While I was witnessing that and thinking about the giant mountains I'd eventually see, it struck me as incredible how credible we consider the incredible extent of flatland to be. Those of us who grew up in the Midwest expect to see nothing different, and I imagine many people of the world might be plopped down here in Nebraska by a giant Magic Hand and not know what the hell to do with themselves, looking in every direction and seeing nothing to mark themselves with. They might assume they've fallen into purgatory, with no way out except to convert immediately to the cold religious extremism that governs much of the area.
Cows were a frequent sight. We all know how I feel about cows. I don't like them. How is it that our mental stereotype for a cow is the black and white dairy cow? Every cow I see is bull-colored. Dark black or dull brown or dirty off-white. Not a lot of multiples of color on individual cows. In early Nebraska I saw a couple of cows grazing up ahead of me in a golden-brown harvested field. It looked like a pretty plain sight to me — a boring cow being really lazy in a comfortable patch of earth. But if I turned my head and looked straight ahead down my own lane at the rows of wheat whizzing by, I saw the ground actually covered in a film of snow, and I saw that maybe the cow's ground was not as comfortable and lazy as it appeared, despite its hooves. Maybe I should give cows a touch of respect; perhaps they suffer in their fields all day. They're like timid horses, really. Or aloof horses. Or apathetic horses, who are fat. Fuck cows.
Nebraska is so flat, even if it's interesting. Nowhere is a land more placid and predictable than Nebraska, except maybe for Kansas, and Oklahoma, and Illinois, and Iowa, and Indiana, and Ohio. The only human element to break it up and make it hideous are the sloppy low-rise billboards that poke out of the ground every few miles with bright reds and yellows, the typical ones that advertise for porn shops and steakhouses and food-fuel-lodging on Route 39 just of Exit 179. The one element that surprised me though was the neverending stretch of manmade ponds that littered the side of the road. I mean, there was one that was at least two miles long and no longer than 200 feet wide, whose water level went directly up to the front steps of houses. Let's hope that never floods ever.
The thought of mountains, or the idea of mountains, is a horrible thing, because the horizon is a billion miles away and mountains will never show up no matter how far you drive, and when they do you will never reach them no matter how far you drive, because they are on the horizon which is a billion miles away. This trip promises mountains, though. That is where we are going. Once you have the promise of something, you'll start to look hard enough to where you'll start seeing things you didn't before, probably either mirages or air pollution, says Mrs. Kolkmeier. You do get to Colorado, though, and even though you can't even see the faint outline of mountains yet, a victory line has been crossed. You've made it through the infinite wheaten gateway to the west.
The west is a very strange place to me. Even the road seems foreign, with its chalk-gray surface and black and white midlines. Its grazing fields that don't even look comfortable to walk on from two miles away. But here we are. Boulder, CO, where somehow the sun shines bluer and yellower on everything in sight and it's 50 degrees in December and everyone is prettier and nicer than they are in the rest of the world. Time to snowboard.
(Dedicated to Charley Field.)

In response to Dov Bear's comment on one of my previous posts, I'm going to give myself a little context to flesh out my profile so that those of you who read my Miluim series (or anything else that I write for that matter) know where I'm coming from.
Firstly, and most importantly, we got married in November so this is the first time that I'll be doing Miluim as a married man. In an amazing piece of army timing, I actually received the call up papers on our wedding day - how do they do that?! It's just the two of us in the meantime but that certainly puts a lot more responsibility on my shoulders than would previously have been the case.
I come from a traditional background (we made kiddush on a Shabbat morning but then turned on the TV for Football Focus) but now describe myself as religious. I wear a kippa, keep kosher and Shabbat but don't make it to minyan as often as I should do (to say the least). My wife is a little more religious than I am but we're having fun working things out together.
Politically I describe myself as a pragmatic rightist. I voted Likud in both of the last two elections and (as I think I've made clear) support the disengagement as a necessity rather than as an ideal, for moral, strategic and economic reasons. My experience in Beit Lechem during Operation Defensive Shield in 2002 was very important in forming my opinions - I will try to post more fully on that tomorrow to build a broader picture.
The question "does your experience make you a peacnik (sic) or a warnik? is very problematic. In calling one political view "peaceniks" or "the peace camp" the implication is that all those who don't subscribe to the views of that group are anti-peace or "warniks". I am offended by this definition as I truly believe that, other than a few nuts, Israelis are all in favour of peace, we just differ, legitimately, in our opinions as to the best way to achieve this end.
The term "peacenik" is often used in a derogatory manner and I would be offended if it was thrown in my direction. I am for sitting down and negotiating, prepared for painful territorial compromise where necessary, and am in favour of acting in a moral fashion in all of our dealings with the Palestinians. I am also in favour of defending Israeli citizens by the security barrier which has almost eliminated suicide bombing and by going after those who would perpertrate acts of terror by any means, at any time and in any place.
And last but not least - yes it would be Mrs. Ben Mori were it not for the fact that I use a pen name. A lot of my friends know who I am and it's not to difficult to work out if you know me but I prefer a little anonymity with the general public. Had I changed my name to a Hebrew one (which I did comtemplate) I would have used Gil Ben Mori.

While every man should read more novels, not every man has the time — especially when they'll all be perfectly serviceable movies someday, amiright?
Well here's the one novel you can read right now, and should: presenting The Silent History — a serialized, iPhone and iPad experience that's part mystery novel, part scavenger hunt, and all digestible in 15-minute chunks.
The story: somewhere in the near future, children are being born without the ability to speak (oh, sweet nirvana), yet possess strange, otherworldly powers.
Written by the former editor of "McSweeney's" and a "writer's room" of contributors, the story unfolds like a TV drama's arc, drawing you in one tiny chunk at a time while building upon a larger, longer storyline.
To get started, just download the app — the opening page presents you with six color-coded dials. Turn the dials to receive a small story, a.k.a. a "testimonial" as told by the doctors, faith healers, and parents who're chronicling the epidemic.
The app also uses GPS to reveal extra narratives, or "field reports." So you can interact with the fiction while you're, say, driving around town or waiting in line.
If you're feeling inspired, you can contribute your own field reports to build on the story.
You may have to wait a while for the residuals, though.

The HBS Author's Spotlight SHOWCASES Terry Ambrose's New Book: CLUES IN THE SAND.
Terry Ambrose is the author of the McKenna Mystery series and the Seaside Cove Bed & Breakfast Mystery series.
A Seaside Cove Bed & Breakfast Mystery Book 2
Author: Terry Ambrose
To Rick Atwood's dismay, the police find a body on the beach near his Seaside Cove B&B. The dead woman held a pottery shard from an ancient rice bowl, which the cops believe is a clue to her murder.
The chief suspect is Flynn O'Connor, a female archaeologist known for her hatred of treasure thieves. Trouble is, Rick's daughter Alex sees Flynn as a role model and will not believe her friend is a killer.
Alex pressures her dad as only a ten-year-old can to prove Flynn is innocent. The mayor is also making demands—for Rick to stay out of the investigation. With his daughter and the mayor at odds, Rick sees trouble brewing. He knows too well how much Alex loves sticking her nose where it doesn't belong. Especially when there's murder involved.
Excerpt from CLUES IN THE SAND
July 19
Hey Journal,
Operation Dumbwaiter is on! Me and Robbie have been planning for a couple weeks now. We're not supposed to ride the dumbwaiter cause Daddy says it's not safe. But I'm totally stoked. The ride is gonna be scary and fun all at the same time. I don't wanna only do the safe stuff, Journal. If we only did things like that we'd never have any fun, right?
The other big news is they found a body on the beach this morning. Our handyman says everybody's talking about it. I heard the lady died with a really old piece of pottery or something in her hand.
Do you think maybe she was another treasure hunter? It's gonna be awesome when one of them finds that sunken ship they're all after. Nobody's found it so far, so I guess they're not very good at their jobs. Anyway, what's super scary is they don't live very long.
They keep getting killed off so they must not be very nice people. Do you think it could have been murder, Journal? Daddy should investigate like he did last time. That would be cool. It was awesome the way I helped him find the killer. I just wish I hadn't gotten in so much trouble.
Daddy's gonna be up in a couple minutes to say goodnight. I'll ask him if he's gonna help again. I don't wanna be mean, but the cops here are totally lame and need my dad's help. And he needs mine!
Oh yeah, I gotta tell you how I'm gonna get Daddy and Marquetta together. But I can't do it now cause Daddy just knocked.

Maui Magic
- A McKenna Mystery - Trouble in Paradise Book 8
The eighth Trouble in Paradise island mystery featuring senior sleuth McKenna and his PI-wannabe sidekick Chance Logan.
Whatever happened to easy? McKenna had the perfect cover for his plan to propose marriage. He and his girlfriend Benni would help his elderly tenant, Mrs. Nakamura, fly to Maui for a visit with her pregnant granddaughter. Then, he'd take Benni for a walk on the beach. He had a ring, but did he have the courage to pop the question?
The minute they land, McKenna's perfect plan hits a snag. Mrs. Nakamura's grandson-in-law is being accused of murder—and she wants her amateur sleuth landlord to investigate. Reluctantly, McKenna agrees to take the case with his friend Chance. They dive into an investigation that starts in a seedy hospitality club and goes straight downhill. Before they know it, the battle for Maui's water is raging around the amateur sleuths and they have too many questions to answer.
Why was the murder victim living under a fake identity? Why is their client claiming he committed the crime? And, who is the mystery man stalking them?
On a dusty cane road, McKenna must answer the toughest decision of his life—live rich or die poor? There's no way it's the question he wanted to face, but if McKenna doesn't think fast, he may never ask another.

A Damsel for Santa
- A McKenna Mystery - Trouble in Paradise Book 7
Not even the freak hurricane bearing down on Honolulu can dampen Wilson McKenna's holiday spirit. His girlfriend is coming to town, and they'll be celebrating their first Christmas together. Everything changes though when Chance Logan shows up and begs McKenna to help with a big charity event.
Chance wants his best friend to take the role of Santa in the Christmas play he's directing. The previous Santa claims to have malaria, and dress rehearsal is only hours away. McKenna agrees to help, but trouble strikes during rehearsal when the storm hits town. There's a city-wide power outage, the phone lines and traffic are snarled, and when the lights come on, one of the elves is dead.
When McKenna and Chance decide to investigate, the child star insists on being Santa's helper. Now, McKenna has questions galore and no answers. Is the killer the Shakespeare-quoting Scrooge? The secretive Jack Frost? Or the way-too-friendly elf with more personalities than he can count? Should he give Assistant Elf Investigator Holly the promotion she's demanding? And what should he do about the Santa suit? It's giving him itches in places he can't even mention in public.
This year, Hawaii's best amateur sleuth has a short Christmas wish list. He wants to find a killer before the curtain comes down on this production. And, he'd kill for a sturdy backscratcher.

- A McKenna Mystery - Trouble in Paradise Book 6
Some secrets are too dangerous to reveal...

Kai insists she needs to hire a private investigator so she can prove her nanny isn't a murderer. McKenna reminds everyone he's only an amateur sleuth, not a PI. Kai's determination and charm endear her to his friends on the cruise and, despite his better judgement, McKenna agrees to help.
Almost immediately, McKenna realizes Kai will be the worst possible client. She's precocious, strong-willed, and has a nasty habit of interfering in the investigation. He also discovers the woman he's trying to help appears to be lying about her involvement in the murder. The worst part is she's somehow involved in a government cover-up involving the US Army and secrets nobody wants unearthed.

Lunch is usually conducted picnic style in the park. Our A&K picnics were the envy of every other group. Then it is touring until sunset.
When you get back to camp there is a camp fire going and the head guide will present a lecture, while everyone enjoys some much needed libations, of which there is great variety and unlimited quantity. Then dinner in the dining tent, and after dinner back to the campfire for more libations, and usually to review everyone's pictures from that day.
The guides are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. You will actually miss them on your last day. I had a great time and heartily recommend this safari and A&K.
The best part is being inside the game park all day and night. You really dont want to be going back to a hotel, but to stay out in nature.
Some tips: There is a generator in the camp so you may recharge your electrical items every day. They can also launder your clothes. Things to bring: plenty of strong repellent to deter the horse flies, do not skimp on memory cards for your camera, be sure to have a telescopic lens for your camera, a good pair of binoculars with good magnification, a flashlight, a device to view your photos on, a device to copy your photos onto. Dont forget a sweater, its cold at Ngorongoro Crater. For your digestive happiness, I had good results taking probiotic and charcoal capsules every day.

Hello… 🙂
My name is Eleonora. I am half Dutch, half English and live on the south coast of England with my husband, three fast growing children and a Miniature Schnauzer called Salty.
I am passionate about crochet! I am a crochet designer and draw so much inspiration from the sea and coastal surroundings where we live… I have crocheted for many years having initially learnt in my childhood and more recently undertaking the International Diploma in Crochet As a result my crochet designs are very varied and I have enjoyed using a variety of crochet techniques including Tunisian crochet, Broomstick crochet and Filet crochet. I love sharing my passion for crochet with others and enjoy teaching and hosting crochet workshops, writing this blog and sharing photos on Instagram I have had designs published in magazines including 'Simply Crochet' and 'Crochet Now'.
I love crochet! I love how it looks, I love its versatility and more than anything I love to actually do crochet.
A craft I can take anywhere with me and the joy of gradually seeing each stitch transform the yarn in my hands into something beautiful.
I also love to live by the coast and am constantly inspired by my coastal surroundings.
So Coastal Crochet is born…

Melbourne: Former champion Stan Wawrinka gave Australian Open organisers a massive boost on Tuesday when he told reporters he was feeling "really positive" about the new season and was keen to get back on court.
The year's opening grand slam has been hit hard by absences with Andy Murray, Serena Williams and Kei Nishikori among those to have withdrawn, while Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic have also been struggling with long-term injuries.
Wawrinka has been battling a knee injury and has not played since he was knocked out in the first round of Wimbledon last year, and the Swiss was one of the major question marks heading into the 15-28 January Australian Open.
"I'm really, really happy to be back on the Tour and seeing the sun," Wawrinka told reporters after an event with the tournament's ball kids at Melbourne Park on Tuesday.
"Still a lot to do but I'm feeling really positive so looking forward to starting."
Wawrinka is scheduled to play in the exhibition Tiebreak Tens event at Melbourne Park on Wednesday and tournament director Craig Tiley said it was welcome news the three-times Grand Slam winner was eager to get back on court.
"There's been a lot of questions and in fact this is the first time publicly in six months that he's said anything, so we are excited that he agreed to come here and do it with the ball kids," Tiley said.
"So he's ready to play. I've watched him practice."
"Obviously to play best-of-five-set matches and to play seven of them in two weeks, he'd need to have a lot of things go his way."
"But, as he indicated this morning, he will be ready to play and it's great to see him out here."

The Neuropathic element of the assessment is to determine the effectiveness of the sensory receptors, and their ability to transmit sensations to the brain. Light-touch, sharp-touch, vibration, warm-cold sensations are all used to test the various receptors found in the body. Also muscle tone is tested to assess the effectiveness of the motor neurons that instruct the muscles to move.
The vascular assessment checks on the blood pressure and circulation associated with the lower limb producing what is known as an ankle/brachial index. This determines any arterial problems that may be a cause for concern.
The combined assessments can pick-up early stages of any impairment that may be developing in the body. Including heart disease and diabetes.

The A-Z of Depression is a series of 26 simple, but hard-hitting illustrations on depression by Bangalore-based illustrator Tara Maria Chawla. She worked on them at the end of 2017, and the complete work was published in February 2018. The body of work was crafted for Live Love Laugh Foundation—an initiative spearheaded by actor Deepika Padukone to create awareness around mental health. The foundation was looking to turn their idea into illustrations and since she had worked with them on a few projects including awareness posters for general physicians' offices and schools, they thought she would be able to convert their thoughts into a relatable social media campaign.
All the 26 letters have a deep connection with the disorder. Could you take us through the ideation and execution process? "Once the team had shortlisted words and ideas for each alphabet, they shared their list with me and I proceeded to think of the different ways I could illustrate them. There were clinical definitions, and then their explanations, so trying to bridge the two was one task. In some cases, there were multiple words, so choosing the word that fit best was another thing I had to keep in mind," clarifies Chawla.
Adding, "I tried to make sure that the colour scheme was bright, because depression is often linked with heaviness and sadness, but by using brighter hues, I was hoping to show the light and happiness that talking about depression can bring, because breaking the stigma around mental health issues is important."
Interesting, Chawla herself was battling depression while she first joined the foundation in 2016. She recalls being in the midst of panic attacks and weeklong depressive episodes that left her less than ready to work. "It was with a few small projects and a lot of thought that I finally decided it was time to get help, because after reading about the work they had been doing, a lot of it really clicked with my personal experiences. It was definitely not easy, but after talking to my family, I started therapy and now, close to two years later, I am finally in a position to help other people, through projects like this one facilitates," enthuses Chawla.
Further, her biggest challenge was 'illustrating the words in a way that people who didn't understand what living with depression was like would be able to understand what it felt like.' Since it's a sensitive topic, she had to be careful of the images she used. Each definition had to be vetted by the psychologists that work with the foundation before the publication of the project, so the team had to keep in mind the clinical definition on a broader scale and make sure the two concepts aligned.
Anything you learnt from this project? "I think the biggest thing I learnt was that there are most people who can relate to the smaller definitions of the illustrations because as human beings we go through many different stages and emotions. What's interesting is when you combine all the alphabets, you get closer to understanding just how overwhelming depression can be, and a lot of people may not have fully understood that before this campaign."
Chawla also thinks that mental health issues are often downplayed in India, because it is not understood by most people and it's not a commonly discussed topic. "If you have never had to deal with depression and anxiety, you may not understand how crippling it may be to someone who has panic attacks and depressive episodes and how much it can affect your life and work. But the only way to change minds is to educate people," Chawla adds. Illustrating further, "So, say, yes, this is what happened or this is how I feel, and this is how you can help me. Understand that it may take going to a doctor or a therapist and talking for hours before you feel even a tiny bit better, but also that it is possible to feel better and to be productive."
As someone in the creative field, she knows there are times when you may feel like you are alone in your journey, and it feels difficult to know if you are going in the right direction, but once you step back and look at it, there are many moments that have helped you reach the point you have reached, so all you can do is work on getting to the next point, because if you look hard enough there is always a new point to get to.
"I think the first step to tackling depression is understanding that it's okay to have depression. It's okay to be yourself, and it's okay to need some time and space, because we live in a connected world and we inevitably wind up comparing ourselves to everyone and everything out there. But your journey is not the same as anyone else's, so just breathe, and work your hardest, that's the only thing that counts."

A group of five or nine numbers that are added to a postal address to assist the sorting of mail. Look up ZIP Codes by street address, city, and state. Or you can find ZIP Codes within a city and state.
The ZIP Code is the code that use for the location name in a country so Zone Improvement Plan, is properly written in capital letters and was chosen to suggest that the mail travels more efficiently, and therefore more quickly (zipping along), when senders use the code in the postal address.
The basic format consists of five decimal numerical digits. An extended ZIP+4 code, introduced in the 1980s, includes the five digits of the ZIP code, a hyphen, and four more digits that determine a more specific location within a given ZIP code.
The term ZIP code was originally registered as a service mark (a type of trademark) by the U.S. Postal Service, but its registration has since expired. But here we will talk about the Karachi Pakistan's Postal codes (Zip Code) and we are providing you the area wise zip codes for the Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan.

According to Variety (via Topless):
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are taking their crime-fighting ways to Viacom.
Conglom has plunked down $60 million for the global rights to the property, considered one of the most successful franchises in the past 25 years given the myriad TV series, films, videogames and toy lines based on the sewer-dwelling characters.
Viacom acquired the rights from the Mirage Group — which has owned the property since 1984 — and 4Kids Entertainment. Paramount will now steer a new "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" feature to the bigscreen, planned for 2012.
What does that mean for us TMNT fans? Well, lets see…a new movie (totally rad) and new toys (totally awesome). So don't go crying to your mom. This isn't such a bad thing. After all, 'they're the worlds most fearsome fighting team.' And I'm sure they are fine with the situation.

"I've always overworked in the weight room. I love working with weights. I knew they'd give me the strength I need."
-Florence Griffith Joyner
Dumbbells and barbells. What's the difference? Which is better? Is the dress yellow or blue?
Both are awesome implements for weight training and should be staples in any weight lifting program.
Bodyweight movements are nice additions, but free weights should serve as the backbone of your lifting routines.
Although dumbbells and barbells are similar in their effects on muscle building, they have distinct advantages.
Dumbbell Advantages
Dumbbells are fantastic for beefing up your forearms, which many gym rats are lacking in. In fact, some of you might not even need forearm isolation like Farmer Walks if you focus more on dumbbell work. Implementing these for both your pulling and pressing movements will also increase your grip strength, preventing your grip from being a limiting factor in movements like Pull-Ups.
In addition, dumbbells are great for correcting muscle imbalances. Barbell movements are more stable and might have one side overcompensating for the other. Dumbbell movements eliminate this discrepancy; when one arm starts to fatigue during your repetition, bring the other one down and finish your set.
Furthermore, dumbbells eliminate the need for a spotter in many cases. During the bench press, you can drop the dumbbells instead of relying on someone to hoist the barbell back to the rack. Dumbbell Overhead Press, if done correctly, will require nothing more than kicking your legs up to get your arms in proper position.
So what's the point of using barbell movements?
Barbell Advantages
Some movements cannot be safely replicated with dumbbells. Deadlifts, for example, should only be done with barbells. Pulling dumbbells requires you to bend VERY close to the floor, similar to the depth on a deficit deadlift. This movement has its place, but most people lack the flexibility to do it well. Plus, you will eventually run out of heavy enough dumbbells to use in your deadlift workouts; most gyms don't carry dumbbells heavier than 150 lbs, which will be problematic once you can do reps with 315 on the barbell.
On another note, if your gym doesn't carry any dumbbells over 80 lbs, find a new gym; I've seen places like this before; it's a little depressing honestly.
Regarding heavy lifting, barbells are definitely safer when testing your strength limits. If you want to test your 5-rep-max on a barbell, you can adjust the weight in 5 lb increments. Moderate and heavy dumbbells, however, increase by 5 lbs EACH; you might miscalculate your 5-rep-max and fail to do even one rep (which is asking for an injury).
Barbells might also fatigue you less quickly than dumbbell movements. A heavy set of Dumbbell Bench Press sometimes leaves me winded for 3 minutes whereas benching the bar has nowhere near this effect. This is something to keep in mind if you're trying to condense your time spent in the gym.
Wrapping It Up
Dumbbells and barbells both have their place in any training program. Combine them with bodyweight movements to have an effective lifting routine.
For more distinction on these two, here's a fantastic article by strength coach Mark Rippetoe.

Syrian state media said on Monday that U.S.-led coalition aircraft had bombed an army position in the east, causing deaths and injuries, but the U.S. military denied it was responsible.
The attack took place in al-Harra, southeast of the town of Albu Kamal, state media said, citing a military source. There were no immediate details on casualties.
A commander in the alliance fighting alongside Damascus told Reuters that drones which were "probably American" had bombed the positions of Iraqi factions between Albu Kamal and Tanf, as well as Syrian military positions.
