Here we will share stories, books, movies and articles about people who have been through the rollercoaster ride of teenage hood and have come out the other side and gone on to be "successful" in their own right. So if you have a story please contact us and tell us your story so we can prove that there is an end to the ride.
One of the more famous people to come out the other side and become successful as well as a fantastic support of mental health is Stephen Fry. When Stephen was a teenager he was expelled from prep school, and was arrested, charged and held on remand for stealing a family friend's credit card. Following his release from prison, Fry went on to win a scholarship at Oxford University and forge a well-known career in television, film and stand-up comedy.
Another famous person who has also been in jail for crimes committed as a teenager is Mark Wahlberg. Mark as a teen developed an addiction to drugs, hung out with street gangs, and has been charged with attempted murder but pleaded guilty to assault. Mark figured he couldn't continue down this path and decided it was time to change the path he was on. Mark' brother Donnie, of New Kids on the Block fame, assisted Mark in producing his first album with this band, Marky Mark & the Funky bunch. This change in lifestyle lead Mark to further success with roles in TV and film following. Mark is now one of Hollywood's best leading male actors.
Here is a list of books we think may assist you on this journey. Some of these are stories from people who have been on the same ride, others are from health experts giving some good advice to help you deal with the rollercoaster of emotions and situations, whilst others will use humour which we all need to bring a smile to our faces which sometimes is missing. Let us know what you think if you have read any one these books or any other books you think will be beneficial to others to help on the journey.
Jane Caro is known for saying what she thinks across the news and entertainment media. In an era where public figures talk about themselves as brands, and manage every moment accordingly, this is not just refreshing, it's, well, radical.
Unafraid to apply that razor-sharp insight to her own life, Jane reveals that she was not a model child or a faultless parent, and she's a better person for it; that asking for help is a skill worth mastering; and that in her long and successful career in advertising, she was bullied by some of the wittiest men in Australia.
Jane also talks frankly about her battle with anxiety, offering assurance and hope to the one-in-three Australian women affected by the condition. Jane shows that anxiety is not a life sentence, and that on the other side lies the ultimate reward: the freedom to do as we please.
How do you raise boys to men in a world where trouble beckons at every turn? How do you make sure they learn the 'right' lessons, stay out of danger, find a path to follow? How do you ensure they'll be OK?
Celia Lashlie has some of the answers. After years working in the prison service, she knows what can happen when boys make the wrong choices. She also knows what it's like to be a parent - she raised a son on her own and feared for his survival. As a crucial part of the Good Man Project, she talked to 180 classes of boys. Her insights into what boys need - and what parents can do to help them - are ground-breaking.
In this new edition of her honest, no-nonsense and best-selling book, Celia reveals what goes on inside the world of boys. With clarity and insight, she offers parents - especially mothers - practical and reassuring advice on raising their boys to become good, loving, articulate men.
Two kids named Wes Moore were born blocks apart within a year of each other. Both grew up fatherless in similar Baltimore neighborhoods and had difficult childhoods; both hung out on street corners with their crews; both ran into trouble with the police. How, then, did one grow up to be a Rhodes Scholar, decorated veteran, White House Fellow, and business leader, while the other ended up a convicted murderer serving a life sentence? Wes Moore, the author of this fascinating book, sets out to answer this profound question. In alternating narratives that take readers from heart-wrenching losses to moments of surprising redemption, The Other Wes Moore tells the story of a generation of boys trying to find their way in a hostile world.
Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers thirteen cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker, his classmate and crush who committed suicide two weeks earlier.
On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he'll find out how he made the list.
Through Hannah and Clay's dual narratives, debut author Jay Asher weaves an intricate and heartrending story of confusion and desperation that will deeply affect teen readers.
In this hard-hitting book, Michael Carr-Gregg focuses on the special trials of raising adolescent girls today: what to do when your previously quiet, loving daughter becomes a restless, rebellious stranger who behaves like a responsible adult one day and a vampish brat the next.
Part of the problem is that girls are becoming sexualised earlier, and their physical development is shooting ahead of their cognitive capacities. By the time they turn 13 they look like they're ready for anything – but they're not. Yet, argues Carr-Gegg, many parents are surrendering their authority and allowing their daughters to be fast-tracked into pseudo-adulthood. We appear to be losing it when it comes to parenting our girls and it's time to grab back the reins.
This book is a must-read for every parent with an adolescent daughter.
In this insightful book, one of Australia's leading authorities on adolescent mental health, Dr Michael Carr-Gregg, offers practical information on the symptoms, causes and treatment for everything from ADHD and eating disorders to anxiety and depression. Michael also includes tips on:
When to Really Worry is an essential reference for parents, teachers, coaches or anyone who works with young people.
Adam Schwartz has spent more than a third of his life battling depression. At the age of 10, he began periods of school refusal, bouts of destruction, physical illness, endless trials with unsuccessful drug regimes and contemplation of suicide. Finally, he was forced to drop out of high school and relinquish his hopes of further education and a bright, healthy future.
Fortunately, Adam's story has a happy ending. As someone who has only just left those terrible years behind, his recollections of what it is like to be a child and teenager suffering with depression are vivid.
Mum, i wish i was dead tells the story of Adam's journey through this illness and was written to help raise awareness of depression and give hope to both carers and sufferers.
'At last, a sensible, well-written and incisive description of the most common psychiatric disorder in young people: depression.
Sometimes, trying to detect depression in young people is like trying to pick up mercury with a fork but this book makes the task just that little easier. It is an invaluable resource for people who work with young people in health, education and welfare and should be a standard text for all trainees.' - Dr Michael Carr-Gregg.
First symptoms of depression often occur during teenage years, and it can be a disturbing and confusing time for families as well as the teenager themselves. How can you tell whether it's just typical teenage ups and downs that will pass, or something more serious? How can parents, carers and professionals who work with young people best identify and support teenagers with depression?
Experienced clinician and researcher Gordon Parker explains how to systematically identify different mood disorders, and outlines treatment options. He discusses the particular challenges faced by adolescents and approaches to effective management.
Illustrated with moving and informative descriptions from people who suffered depression as teenagers, this is a comprehensive and authoritative guide.
A commonsense, practical guide to getting your kids back on track and creating a happier home! Being a parent can be tough and there are times when you just don't have all the answers. For parents who find themselves faced with a seemingly endless spiral of conflict, poor behaviour and ineffective discipline, this is the evidence-based parenting program they've been waiting for. Divided into 12 sessions, it first focuses on developing a strong relationship between parent and child. Once a firm foundation of parenting strategies has been developed, the program then moves onto effective discipline. The discipline program is designed so that it is self-sustaining and allows the parent to step back from what is often an emotionally charged situation and instead use predetermined consequences. It also emphasises teaching children ownership of their behaviour. The beauty of this program is that the principles can be used in each of the child's environments (at home, at school, with grandparents, etc.), while it has also been designed so that any parent can use it as well as those with children who have been diagnosed with behavioural disorders such as ADHD, Oppositional Defiance Disorder, or explosive and non-compliant behaviour. It's a commonsense, practical guide to getting your kids back on track and creating a happier home!
A harrowing memoir from the father of a seven-year-old girl, January First is the desperate story of Michael's mission to find out what is wrong with his highly intelligent daughter.
Right from when she was a newborn, January has kept her parents on their toes: as a baby she slept for only 20 minutes at a time, as a one year old she spoke in complete sentences, at two she asked about negative numbers, and by three had literally hundreds of imaginary friends. But when her brother Bodhi arrives her behaviour becomes increasingly violent, her never-ending delusions and hallucinations interspersed with paroxysms of rage that eventually force her parents to live in separate one-bedroom apartments - communicating with walkie-talkies to keep her brother safe. As her father does the rounds of child psychologists, doctors and locked hospital wards, he provides an unflinchingly honest account of parenting, as well as an indictment of the lack of care for children with severe mental illness.
January First shows the passionate dedication of a father who refuses to give up on his little girl even as her behaviour becomes ever more alien. An eventual diagnosis is reached of one of the most severe cases of child-onset schizophrenia that doctors have ever seen: January is hallucinating 95 percent of the time that she is awake and potent psychiatric drugs that would level most adults barely faze her.
When Amanda first came to Dr. Sachs for treatment, she had attempted suicide more than once. Withdrawn and cynical, she refused to speak during her therapy sessions. Determined to connect, Dr. Sachs tried something unconventional: he wrote letters to Amanda between sessions and invited her to write back, thinking she might feel more comfortable opening up in this way—and indeed she did. This correspondence gradually built trust between them, helping her to survive and ultimately to heal. When No One Understands consists of twenty letters that Dr. Sachs wrote to Amanda over the course of her therapy. In these letters, Sachs reaches out to Amanda with the core message that there is nothing wrong with her—that adolescence is painful, complex, and challenging for everyone and that her emotional pain deserves to be honored, openly explored, and viewed with compassion. Dr. Sachs also addresses many of the common questions and concerns shared by all teens on such topics as relationships, breakups, drugs and alcohol, parents, family dynamics, and more. Along the way, Dr. Sachs offers adults an inspiring image of a truly open, human-to-human relationship between an adult and a teenager. Parents, mental health professionals, guidance counsellors, educators, and others who work with teens will see how they might also bring honesty, compassion, and humility to bear in their interactions with young people in order to create truly healing and supportive relationships.
Teens who are out-of-control may participate in a number of troubling behaviors, including drinking, taking drugs, skipping school, or even fighting. If you've tried to discipline your teen to no avail, you may feel emotionally exhausted. But you also know that the consequences of not taking action now could greatly affect their future.
For parents who are at their wits end, clinical psychologist and expert in treating children with behavior issues Patrick M. Duffy presents Parenting your Delinquent, Defiant, or Out-of-Control Teen. This book utilizes effective strategies common among proven effective programs—such as functional family therapy, multidimensional treatment foster care, and multisystemic therapy—and is designed for use by parents whose teens are on the verge of (or have already gotten in) trouble in school or with the law.
If you've reached the boiling point and feel helpless when it comes to your teen, you need help now, rather than later. With this book as your guide, you'll learn practical and effective skills for parenting your difficult child, no matter how hard they try to push you away.
Therapist Michael Ungar uses the struggles of three families and his own history to help the parents of difficult children.
Family therapist Michael Ungar, internationally renowned for his work on child and youth resilience, takes us into his world each Wednesday, when he meets with three families with very troubled children. Here, Michael shares a side of himself that is not the all-knowing therapist: he too was a troubled teen, growing up in an emotionally and physically abusive home.
In the book, Michael shares nine things that all troubled kids need from their parents that will help them turn their lives around and flourish:
Hopeful in tone, and using knowledge gathered from Michael's work around the world, I Still Love You shows that it is never too late to help our children change and reconnect with those who will always love them.

Our Top Freeride Skis
Built for powder, steeps and tree lines, freeride skis let you enjoy all that the back and slackcountry have to offer while retaining enough grip and manoeuvrability for enjoyable piste runs.
Here are the winners and runners-up for our 2017/18 Freeride ski of the year...
Santa Ana 100
- Radius: 15.5m (169)(163)
- Waist: 100mm (169)
- Rocker: Tip/Tail
Tester's comment
Sophie (Kensington) "This is all about having fun on any terrain, in any condition at any speed. An all terrain freestyle ski that has a kick on piste."
Winner of the Women's best in category Freeride ski, the Nordica Santa Ana is a powerful ski that is surprisingly light and easy to control and suitable for advanced to expert skiers.
The core of the ski is balsa wood and carbon laminates sandwiched between two sheets of titanal. This delivers a playful flex with plenty of grip and edge hold while minimising weight and maximising manoeuvrability.
A host of features contribute to this high performance including a camRock profile, camber under the binding ( = grip) and rocker at the tip and tail ( = easy turn initiation and controlled exits with extra lift in powder). The ski has a blunt nose that reduces vibrations and swing-weight, and a sintered base with added graphite creates less static friction and more speed.
Again, the Santa Ana 100 inspires confidence in all conditions, and you can't help but have a good time with them strapped to your feet .
Zelda F106
- Radius: 18m (168cm))
- Waist: 106mm (168cm)
- Rocker: Tip/Tail
Tester's comment
Justyna (Milton Keynes) "The Nina 99 is one of my favourite skis, so I was excited to test the Zelda 106. What can I say, it's now my choice for powder days. Stable, floaty and fun!"
A close runner-up to the Santa Ana 100, the DPS Zelda F106 is the perfect ski for intermediate to advanced skiers who are looking for a stable and balanced ski that makes short work of soft and choppy snow.
Powering this ski around the mountain is a bamboo/poplar wood core, full-length carbon stringers and tri-ax fibreglass. This mixture of lightweight materials results in a snappy and powerful ski that retains a surprising amount of grip on firm snow for a 106mm waist.
In deep snow, the paddle design (rocker and set back contact points) make for easy and simple turns. The wide waist really pays off here, offering up plenty of lift, stability and predictability, even in crud.
A fantastic ski that is going to give you lots of fun off-piste and can still hold a turn when needed on hard-pack.
Enforcer 100
- Radius: 16.5m (177)
- Waist: 100mm (177)
- Rocker: Tip/Tail
Tester's comment
Dani (Aviemore) "Great freeride choice with amazing performance on hard pack. 100mm waist, large rocker, full sidewall and metal laminate construction all help make it super stable."
A multiple award-winning ski that has been one of the best freeride skis for the last three years. Aimed at advanced to expert skiers it makes use of a World Cup style core of polar/beech, edge to edge titanal sheets and prepreg carbon laminates. It dispenses bucket loads of power with a stable feel that remains lively and playful when needed.
It comes with Nordica's camRoc profile and Hammerhead blunt nose. These two features deliver grip, aid turning in varying conditions and reduce unwanted vibrations.
A ski that drives through turns on-piste, is stable through crud and floats smooth lines in powder; it really is worth every penny.
Wailer A112
- Radius: 15-18m (184)
- Waist: 112mm (184)
- Rocker: Tip/Tail
Tester's comment
Luke (Buying Team) "A brilliant ski for advanced to expert skiers, the Wailer A112 is part of DPS's, top of the line, Alchemist range. Taking full advantage of some of the world's highest-grade materials, it is an engineering masterpiece designed to destroy powder. "
A brilliant ski for advanced to expert skiers, the Wailer A112 is part of DPS's, top of the line, Alchemist range. Taking full advantage of some of the world's highest-grade materials, it is an engineering masterpiece designed to destroy powder.
A big rocker on the front of the ski paired with a paddle sidecut acts like a shovel lifting you above the snow and crushing all that lies in your path. If the conditions are not perfect, the prepreg (aerospace-grade) carbon laminates absorb vibrations - driving you forwards. Back in resort, full-length sidewalls transfer energy into the edges and the low weight keeps the skis relatively nimble.
A firm favourite with all our staff - this ski epitomises what freeride skiing should be about…fun.

In his feral form, Diego felt as though he could keep up at his current pace all the way back to Inferni. He padded along at an easy, comfortable lope, his pink tongue lolling shamelessly from his dark lips. High above and all around, soft shades of green blurred by as he moved. Spring was in full swing and, though it was no comparison to the extreme heat and dry air of Ceniza Valley, it felt nice to Diego.
"I'm tired."
Diego thought to just ignore her. If he pretended like he didn't hear her, then it was almost like she hadn't said anything at all. He carried on, listening to the whistle of the wind in his sharp ears.
"I'm TIRED."
He didn't so much as flick an ear. Letting his feet carry him further through the forest, the soft soil squelching between his toes, Diego felt confident he could outlast her. Eventually, she'd get tired of repeating herself and stop complaining.
It was difficult to say how much longer he trotted on before, with a smug sense of pride, he realized that his companion hadn't said a word for quite some time. Turning his coppery head, Diego made to express this to Paninya when, with a shock, he realized that neither she nor Hocico were alongside him any more.
Giving a yelp of surprise, Diego slowed to a stop and looked around himself dumbly.
Meanwhile, at the river, two pairs of eyes – one dark and one slate – peered at the dark wolfdog from the forest as she dug her teeth into the writhing fish.
"¡Quiero!" the coati cried, standing on his hind legs like a tiny bear.
Paninya, meanwhile, lurked in the shadows and wondered if Hocico could distracted the wolfdog long enough for her to steal the woman's catch right from under her nose.
POSTED: Fri Jun 08, 2018 1:08 am
POSTED: Sat Jun 09, 2018 4:43 pm
Hocico seemed to take the wolf's perplexed expression for curiosity and, comfortable in the spotlight, the little coati chittered excitedly. Dropping to four legs, the creature responded to the wolf's questions with a repetition of the same word. "Quiero!" he chirped, rolling his weight from one side to the other and occasionally standing upon his back legs again. Years of working with Diego had given Hocico plenty of experience on how to entertain others. He began to move away from the fish, as though hoping to draw her away from it, all the while saying, "Quiero! Quiero!"
While the coati distracted the wolf, Paninya kept her eyes on the prize. Literally. She watched as it dropped from the wolf's mouth and looked at nothing else as she inched toward it. With the patience of a cat, the androgynous, little coydog crawled slowly, slowly, slowly toward the woman's catch. When she felt she was within reaching distance, Paninya lowered herself carefully to her knees and stretched forward as far as she could. And then, fingers splayed, she reached one arm out toward the fish and refused to breathe until the thing was safe in her grasp.
Somewhere nearby, she heard Diego's voice. "Niña!" The coydog froze, her body tense and her mood quickly souring. "Niña! Hocico! Where you at?" Paninya flicked a glance at the wolf. "Oye, ¿dónde están ustedes dos?" Diego was close. She had to act fast.
Snapping her body forward, Paninya clawed for the prize and cried out to Hocico to scatter just as Diego crashed into the clearing, his fiery eyes full of confusion at the scene before him.
OOC: LOL! It's all good! You can decide if Paninya gets the fish. Or feel free to have Woodsmoke try to catch Hocico (just don't injure him xD).

We take a deep breath in of Spirit, and we let that out, and we take another deep cleansing breath in of all the good and all the love and all the purity that we feel at this time. We exhale out, out into the atmosphere anything that is not needed, that is not necessary, that is not for our betterment at this time. We take another deep cleansing breath in, centering down with that feeling of true true understanding. Today's meditation is inspired from life, from the book of life, the book of understanding, the book of love, the book of prayers, the book of inspiration.
We open our eyes to what we see within our own mind the third eye, the mind's eye, the mind's eye, the eye of faith. And as we see clearly what we are experiencing in our life, we understand that it is just one part of our life, it is not all of our life that we see a difference needed to be made in. It is the one part of our life that it seems there still is work to be done in this area. Is that what you are experiencing as well? That everything else in your life is going right along but there is this one part, the one point in your life, the one issue in your life that needs to be taken a better look at.
Possibly it needs to be given more light to be illuminated; perhaps it is something that has been needing to be addressed for some time. Perhaps the time is now; continually feeling the breath breathing in and letting it out, feeling calm feeling relaxed feeling energized to tackle whatever that issue is now in our lives. If it is an issue of abuse than we must deal with that, if it is an issue of trust than we must deal with that as well, and if it is an issue of truly truly not seeing eye to eye with someone that you should see eye to eye with; but, how do we correct that issue and how do we look at that part of our lives?
Taking another deep breath in and letting it out. Feeling all the love of the Heavenly Spirit as we deal with this situation, this issue whatever it is that is causing us unrest in our lives. We look deep within ourselves, deep within our own minds and we say to ourselves, is there something I could have done differently? Is there something I could have said differently? Is there something I could have figured out differently, you rest on that and those questions.
Is there something you could have done differently, and would you have done anything differently if you had the choice? Was there something you could have said differently, and if it was what would that something have been? As you realize that each question comes with its own questions you begin to understand that you have all the answers that you need to determine what will be next in the search of finding yourself in this situation. We all live with something that we are dealing with, and even though it may seem like something so unimaginable in your existence until you see what it is, until you look at it in the bright shiny light of the new day, until you experience your persistence to be who you should be strong, loved, respected and treated with dignity, you already know the answer to your question.
You already know the answers to your questions, you are now just waiting to apply those answers to your situation, and as we go into the silence of this amazing moment in our lives we will affirm for ourselves today silently, I am worth more to myself, I am worth more to my Father than anyone sees in this world, and because of that I deserve to be treated with the dignity and respect that I deserve. We will say to ourselves again silently, I am worth more to myself, I am worth more to my Father than anyone sees in this world, and because of that I deserve to be treated with the dignity and respect that I deserve, and as we think of these words, these affirmations, these blessings unto ourselves, we will remember what we learned about ourselves as we go into the silence………..
You are a blessing to this world, you are a blessing to yourself, you are a blessing of the Heavenly Fathers; and until you see that for yourself, until you experience that illuminating vision of yourself, until you see that, you will always have a situation that you will have to deal with. But choose today, choose today's walk, choose today's thought, choose today's issue as an opportunity to change your life, as an opportunity to make your life better, as an opportunity to see yourself shine in your own strong light, respected, affirmed, and rejoicing in the new you, for the new day, for this new time in your life, and so it is, Amen and amen

Awana, short for Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed, is an international evangelical project founded in 1950 by Art Rorheim. It is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping churches spread the love of Christ to our children.
Awana's beginning were started in 1941 at the North Side Gospel Center. Lance Latham, the senior pastor, collaborated with Art Rorheim, the children's pastor, to create a fun way for kids to learn about Christ. Eventually, other churches saw the success of this program, and Awana was formed.
Sounds interesting. How do I get in on this?
Well, if you're an adult, you can help kids learn about God. there are five groups you could work with: Puggles (2-year-olds), Cubbies (3- and 4-year-olds), Sparkies (5-year-olds through 2nd grade), T&T (3rd through 6th grade), Trek (Junior High), and Journey (High School). If you're an adult, all of these are open to you. If you are a middle schooler, then you actually could do Awana. If you would rather help little kids, you can, but only up to Sparkies. If you are High School, same, but only up to T&T.
But... what if there aren't any near me?
Don't worry! There most likely are. just go to this website:
Type your location in, and try and find an Awana near you. There should be one. There are some in Nepal, for Pete's sake!

Allow the contents to cook, serve yourself with a garnish of more fresh cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime. And dinner is ready. Finish up with a serving of home made yogurt or have it with the rice.

Bet on the Australian Open with William Hill
The Australian Open is probably the highlight of golf's Australasia tour. Taking place each November in Australia, it features some of the world's best golfers in a four-round tournament that takes place in some of the country's finest golf courses. Historically Australians have dominated the tournament, however last year saw American Jordan Spieth win in what was an early indication of the dominance he would go on to have over the next year. Spieth should be back for this year's tournament and it will be interesting to see if he can renew his rivalry with Rory McIlroy – the two young men are widely regarded as the two best golfers in the world. If you fancy a bet on the Emirates Australian Open check out our early odds.
Fantastic US Masters and US Open Odds and Markets at William Hill
The US Masters, US Open, PGA Championship and British Open make up the four majors of world golf. The first of the season, the Masters, is played at Augusta National in Georgia, USA, each April. Jordan Spieth is the current holder of the green jacket (there is also a trophy but the jacket has become more iconic), but Australia has also seen success recently, after Adam Scott won the prestigious tournament two years ago. The US Open takes place in June, the British Open in July and the PGA Championship takes place in August each year. Australian Jason Day is the current PGA Champion, his 2015 win was an emotional one after so many near misses down the years. All four tournaments follow the same four-round format and there are loads of different betting opportunities available including outright winner, winning nationality, hole by hole scores and plenty more besides.
Betting on the best golf tournaments in the world
The golf season offers up a whole host of great tournaments across a variety of formats. The standard tournament format – every man for himself against the field – is sometimes disregarded for tournaments like the team event Ryder Cup. This tournament, held every two years, pits teams of European players vs USA players in a variety of different matchplay games. Other highlights of the golf calendar include the Solheim Cup – essentially a female version of the Ryder Cup – the World Matchplay Championship and the Dubai Desert Classic. Most of the standard golf tournaments take place from Thursday through to Sunday. Due to the huge purses on offer most events feature a strong field all year round.

What are the signs and symptoms of systemic sclerosis?
The skin changes of systemic sclerosis can include:
- Loss of the skin's ability to stretch
- Light or dark discoloration of the skin
- Thinning of the skin
- Curling of the fingers (contractures)
- Decreased hand function because of skin tightening on fingers and hand
Initially, the skin of the hands and feet appears swollen. Over time, the skin tightens and hardens and may appear to have ridges, depressed areas, or small pits that are seen mostly at the fingertips.
Since there is not much pain, it is common for scleroderma to be present for quite some time before a parent or child becomes concerned.
Other signs and symptoms of systemic sclerosis may include:
- Joint inflammation with stiffness and pain
- Raynaud's phenomenon – abnormal sensitivity to cold, which is usually seen in the hands. Signs include color changes in the hands (white, blue, red), tingling, discomfort, and decreased sensation.
- Sores (ulcers), mostly on the finger tips
- Digestive problems (heartburn, trouble swallowing, diarrhea, stomach cramps)
- Itching
- Fatigue (easily becoming tired)
- Muscle weakness

Former Hotel Gets New Life as French Brasserie
Walking into New Hotel Mertens is like stepping back in time. That's because many of the building's features harken back to previous decades, including the original flooring, which bares the building's name and was first laid in 1914, when it opened.

This is just a quick check-in to say how much I enjoyed the weekend down in Cookham, Berkshire, for the Rogue Gene Collective Art Exhibition/Sale. Meeting up with the fellow members is always a real tonic and this time it was especially good as I got to meet Andrea for the first time! It was like meeting up with family members again, actually - you know, the ones you miss when you don't see for ages!
Before I write my version of the weekend on here, I thought I'd just share a photo of me at my stand, just to let you see me at work, as it were!!!!
A blog created primarily to inform and entertain anyone who may be interested to know how and when I create my artwork. Other snippets of information will also appear on this blog just in case any non-art lovers stumble across it.

What We Talk About When We Talk About Torture
Waterboarding? It's just a word,
a useful word, like surfing, like sailing,
like basketball. Nothing appalling
about it, friend. That scream you heard?
I didn't hear nothing. Maybe a night bird.
Anyway the end
justifies the means. Anyway the point is to bend
not break. OK, so break a little maybe. That wail you heard?
Just the wind. Don't forget
we're the good guys. Not some Hitler jerk or Stalin
character. We got nothing in common
with historic monsters like them. I'll bet
you don't understand the kind of people we're dealin'
with here. It's like they aren't even human.

Advanced Gmail FiltersWritten by Derek Wilson on October 15th, 2011
If you're looking to stay on top of your email the easiest method is to automate your inbox. One of the most powerful (but unfortunately underused) features of Gmail are the mail filters. Using filters you can match criteria like "to" or "from" and then execute an action like "Mark as read", "Skip the inbox" or "Apply a label". Here are some of my favorites that I used to keep my inbox in check.
Note to Self
Sometimes you need a quick way to write down a reminder and have it accessible privately on the web. Often I'll just create a draft of an email (and never send it) or other times send an email to myself. A neat feature of Gmail is that you can append a + then some text to your email address and Gmail will ignore the text after the +. For example if you own email@example.com you could send a message to firstname.lastname@example.com and it would still arrive to your inbox. So if you use the same +note appendage for all your "notes to self" then we can set up a rule to filter them.
Do this: Apply label "Notes", Apply star.
(where "email" is your address)
What it filters: Any email sent to your "secret" +note address.
What it does: We'll apply a label "notes" so we can find them easier in the future and I like to star it as well so it's at the top of my inbox so I can "unstar" it when I've dealt with the reminder.
I didn't sign up for this
Similar to the +text trick above you can insert a period "." into your email address and it will be ignored. That means email@example.com will receive email from firstname.lastname@example.com or email@example.com (or any combination of periods and letters). This is especially handy for signing up for sites that you don't entirely trust. If you're not interested in hearing from a company after signing up (or you're worried they're selling your address) then use a variant of your address with a period in it and set up a rule to filter it out of your inbox.
Do this: Skip Inbox, Mark as Read, Never mark it as important
What it filters: Only email sent to the variant of your address with periods in it.
What it does: By skipping the inbox (archiving) and marking it as read we won't receive any notice that an email has arrived. But if we really need to find the messages we can use the search function to find them. If you were sure you were never going to read these message you could set it up to delete instead of archive.
Social Media Spam
I like to keep notifications from social media websites as a fallback in case the site is down or as an archive of past events. This, however, would flood my inbox with email I would likely never read. So I apply this filter:
from:(*@facebookappmail.com OR *@facebookmail.com OR *@postmaster.twitter.com OR *@linkedin.com)
Do this: Skip Inbox, Mark as read, Apply label "Social"
What it filters:
First thing you may notice is that I haven't specified which address the mail is from. I used a wildcard (denoted by a *) which will catch any and all email from those domains. I also used the OR operator which does exactly as you'd suspect and will trigger the filter if the incoming mail matching any of the listed domains.
What it does:
Incoming mail that matches the rule will be automatically archived (so it won't clutter up my inbox), it will be marked as read (so my phone doesn't get notified either) and then applies the label "Social" which makes it easy to find these messages later.
That's it for now. I hope with some of these tips and tricks (the +text, the period trick, boolean operators and wildcards) you can write some especially handy filters to make managing your inbox just a bit easier.
Feel free to share some of your favorite Gmail filters in the comments, I'm always looking for some way to save time dealing with email.

New Phoenix sheriff changes jail rule for immigrants flagged for deportation
Sheriff Joe Arpaio's successor in Phoenix says he won't hold immigrants flagged for deportation by federal authorities past their release date in a major policy change.
Arpaio instituted the "courtesy hold" policy to give federal authorities more time to launch deportation proceedings but new Sheriff Paul Penzone said at a surprise press conference Friday that legal issues left him no choice but to change it, effective immediately, according to reports.
"ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) will have to take a more aggressive position on how they're going to act on those who are in violation of Federal law, as we continue to enforce State law," Penzone said, according to Fox 10 Phoenix.
Arpaio became a lightning rod for criticism over his harsh immigration tactics that included his well-publicized sweeps and raids but also his jail policies. Penzone toppled Arpaio in the November election after voters became frustrated over huge legal bills surrounding the longtime lawman.
Penzone said ICE officers will remain in his jail to screen everyone who is booked, but he will no longer detain inmates past their release dates to accommodate the agency.
An ICE spokesman in Phoenix told the Arizona Republic Friday the agency had no immediate comment.
The paper reports that under the courtesy hold policy Maricopa County Jails would detain an individual for up to 48 hours past the individual's release date at the request of ICE officers.
Penzone was unable to cite a specific lawsuit that prompted the policy change, but the paper reports that last year a Mexican-born woman who is a U.S. citizen filed a lawsuit challenging the policy's constitutionality after she was arrested at a Trump protest and jailed overnight on a detainer request.
"The sheriff is absolutely doing the right thing by having any detention to have constitutional standards," the woman Jacinta Gonzalez Goodman, 31, said.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

This post is going to be very short and sweet. I googled Ecuador today (it is turning into a daily thing) and I learned that Ecuador has paid 3.8 million to have a super bowl ad this coming Sunday to encourage Americans to take a chance and visit the diverse South American country.
It is the first time a foreign country has done this and that makes me even more excited to go. Reading about this made me semi geek out, because in less than 60 days I will actually be in Ecuador.
So everyone watch for the ad, who knows maybe you will want to join me 🙂

Our friends at Focusrite have just informed us that they are ending their very popular offer to include an Avid DigiLink license with all purchases of new Focusrite Red 4Pre and Red 8Pre audio interfaces.
Focusrite recommends that people intending to take advantage of this offer to buy their Red 4Pre or Red 8Pre units before the DigiLink I/O License offer ends on April 14th 2017.
Together with Avid, Focusrite created a simpler way for customers to combine Red 4Pre and Red 8Pre with Pro Tools HD 12.6 and upwards. If you buy and register a Red 4Pre or Red 8Pre before 14th of April 2017, a Pro Tools DigiLink I/O Licence can be placed on their iLok free of charge.
- To download the license, customers simply:
- Register their Red 4Pre or Red 8Pre interface
- Follow the link to the Avid website
- Sign in to their Avid Master Account or create an account
- Select their iLok account or create an account
- Sign in to their ilok.com account
- Deposit their Pro Tools | DigiLink I/O Licence
A word of caution is also added. Please note that once you register a Red 4Pre or Red 8Pre interface, you have four weeks to access your Pro Tools | DigiLink I/O License.
So if you are in the market for a new HD compatible interface with ThunderBolt this is the last opportunity to avoid paying for an Avid DigiLink license.

The American Heart Association (AHA) presented Littleton Public Schools with a Bronze Workplace Heath Achievement Award at the January 18th LPS Board of Education Meeting. Awards are based upon the AHA's Workplace Health Achievement Index, which offers a comprehensive evaluation or workplace health and wellness programs. The award recognizes the district's commitment to providing healthy choices and making health a priority for its employees. Among the 800 applicants, only 17 companies/organizations were recognized in Colorado and LPS was one of only three Colorado school districts to earn a Bronze Award.
About the Workplace Health Achievement Index:
The Workplace Health Achievement Index uses science-based best practices to evaluate the overall quality and comprehensiveness of their workplace health programs. The Index allows companies to measure the effectiveness of their workplace health programs, as well as the overall heart health of their employees. Unlike other existing organizational scorecards, the Index also scores companies on the heart health of their employees based on Life's Simple 7® – the Association's scientifically validated definition of ideal heart health. More than 800 companies completed the Index assessment this year and, of those companies, 67% received either Gold, Silver, or Bronze recognition. Companies receive benchmarking reports, which allow them to identify potential areas of improvement so that they can advance their annual performance and recognition.

Patent law has undergone yet another revision and, once again, the change wrought comes potentially at the patent holder's expense. The latest salvo comes from the Supreme Court's decision in KSR International Co. v. Teleflex Inc. In KSR, the Supreme Court effectively diluted the prevailing test for obviousness in favor of an arguably less stringent, more subjective standard.
In KSR, the patent under consideration involved electronic sensors that communicate between an automobile's computer-controlled throttle and the gas pedal. Prior art dealt with the use and placement of such sensors. The KSR patent claimed an innovative combination of those mechanisms which allowed assembly of simpler, smaller, cheaper adjustable pedals.
The Supreme Court found that the patent did not survive a review for obviousness under 35 USC §103, which limits issuance of a patent on a subject that would have been obvious to a "person having ordinary skill in the art." The Court recognized most inventions utilize some combination of prior advancements. The Court said the key to demonstrating true innovation rests then with the identification of the novel reason motivating a new combination. Scolding the Federal Circuit for its "rigid" application of the prevailing standard-the "teaching, suggestion, or motivation" test-the Supreme Court announced that the obviousness inquiry must be guided by "common sense" rather than any particular formula. Although the "teaching, suggestion or motivation" test remains relevant to the obviousness inquiry, the Court emphasized that the practical realities of what was going on in the marketplace at the time of the claimed invention-as opposed to express references in technical materials-can supply such motivation.
At the same time the Court emphasized such practical-and presumably factual-considerations, it also noted that the issue of obviousness is ultimately a legal one susceptible to summary judgment. The Court did not comment upon the type of record that would create a genuine dispute of material fact regarding the Graham v. John Deere factors, however, and it may well be that the decision will be effectively limited to its unique facts. However, in the near term, it is likely that the decision will offer new hope to infringement defendants seeking to avoid a trial on obviousness. Plaintiff patent holders are therefore well advised to concentrate their efforts on developing a record of factual differences regarding the scope of prior art and necessary skill levels before going into battle.
Patent holders should now be prepared to show how prior art taught away from-and not towards-the solution the patent provides. As KSR allows consideration of other fields of endeavor, patent holders will see infringement defendants stringing together a broader variety of art to establish obviousness and patent holders will need detailed technical analysis to support their position. Conclusory expert affidavits won't work-the KSR court made short shrift of such an affidavit as a basis of material fact sufficient to defeat the underlying summary judgment motion.
KSR also recognized that those of "ordinary skill" frequently have the "ordinary creativity" necessary to create useful (though non-patentable) solutions from prior art. To distinguish themselves from these "routineers", a patent holder will also need to demonstrate the specific inventive creativity that imbues their invention story with the requisite novelty. Past battles over "ordinary skill" will pale in comparison to future litigation, as "soft" information about the development field and market get thrown in the mix.
Secondary evidence of non-obviousness may be a patent holder's best bet, as KSR affirmed the use of such evidence along with the rest of the Graham v. John Deere test. Faced with evidence of commercial success, long-felt need and the failure of others, courts will then have a basis for concluding the necessary novelty exists and arose from market-based motivations.
That's slim comfort to patent holders reeling from the impact of recent patent law decisions. They've begun to wonder whether licensees and potential infringers will seek to limit their exposure by using these decisions as a basis for first-strike litigation.
Our take? Such additional litigation is inevitable and with it will come further changes to the patent landscape - that much, at least, is obvious.

Workshop Description:
The fragmentation of the skills of construction into disparate professions and trades and the isolation of the architect from those trades means those who design are disengaged from the reality of making. This disconnect is compounded by a building industry interested only in selling products. Over time traditions of building are abandoned and knowledge is lost to ever more standardised and systematised solutions.
This limits our understanding of what is possible, and consequently affects how we design. We believe that in this time there is opportunity for architects to re-learn some of what might have been lost.
Project Description:
This workshop will research and revive a lost construction technique – that of timbrel vaulting. We will then build a space based on this technique.
The Timbrel Vault or Catalan Arch is built up in layers using thin clay tiles and Portland cement.
The origins of this construction technique lie in ancient Egypt but proved most popular in the middle ages throughout the mediteranean. The method was studied, formalised and patented in the United States in the late 19th century by the Catalan engineer Raphael Guastavino who coined the term 'Cohesive Construction'. The cohesive nature of these constructions reduces the need for buttressing while eliminating the necessity of temporary supports. It also enables the creation of large spanning structures with a material thickness of 30mm using standard industrially produced clay roof tiles.
We will explore timbrel vault construction through the design and execution of a 4m x 4m domed structure. We will study the method and develop a simple proposal in collaboration with engineers and architects researching this type of vaulting in the UK and elsewhere. We intend to self-build this proposal on site in UCD.
3 weeks from mid July for 10-12 people.

The Cast Of Home Improvement
Home Improvement (1991-1999) was an enormous hit sitcom centring on (who I strongly believed on the time was) the good man alive, Tim 'The Toolman' Taylor. Watch Home Improvement – Season three, Episode 1 – Maybe, Baby: When Jill finds out that her sister is having a baby girl, she herself begins wishing for a daughter. Wilson apparently acquired his knowledge by way of globetrotting adventures, given that he was involved in cultural research and had plenty of eccentric artifacts in his house. Along with the perk of probably showing on an episode , folks wished to go to Home Improvement tapings because Allen was known to make use of some off-coloration language and improvise. Just a few 12 months ago, she visitor-starred because the neighbor of Allen's Mike character, named Helen Potts.
Richardson was provided $25 million to do a ninth season; Allen was supplied double that The two declined, and Home Improvement ended after eight seasons and 203 episodes. Then: When Pam Anderson was solid as the unique 'Tool Time' girl on 'Home Improvement,' she was already comparatively properly-identified for sporting a tight-becoming t-shirt to a ball game and, subsequently, a Playboy centerfold. Tim Allen , Richard Karn , Casey Sander , and Debbe Dunning had a reunion in a tv special named Tim Allen Presents: A User's Guide to Home Improvement in 2003 (a terminally in poor health Earl Hindman did voice-overs, befitting his never-seen persona of Wilson). He was played by Earl Hindman , who died of lung cancer in 2003 at sixty one years previous.
Wilson's full name was revealed in a while within the collection, and Earl Hindman joined the remainder of the forged with his face in the clear for the ultimate bows. Hindman had fewer roles after Home Improvement ended, with a few guest roles on Law & Order and a part within the 2001 film Final. Johnny Galecki, Kaley Cuoco and Jim Parsons, Big Bang Theory — As reported yesterday , after delaying manufacturing on the upcoming season, the principal cast of BBT managed to barter $1 million per episode, plus back-end charges and royalties. Frances Fisher, who is best recognized for her dramatic work on the stage and in movies like Unforgiven and Titanic, was initially forged as Tim's spouse, Jill.
The series facilities on the Taylor household, which consists of Tim ( Tim Allen ), his spouse Jill ( Patricia Richardson ) and their three youngsters: the oldest baby, Brad ( Zachery Ty Bryan ), the center baby Randy ( Jonathan Taylor Thomas ) and youngest baby, Mark ( Taran Noah Smith ). The Taylors stay in suburban Detroit , and have a neighbor named Wilson Wilson ( Earl Hindman ) who is commonly the go-to guy for fixing the Taylors' problems.
Tim Allen, Home Improvement — Allen negotiated $1.25 million per episode for the ultimate yr of Home Improvement. It was there, whereas working as an residence advanced manager, that Karn met an agent at a site visitors school who advised him concerning the audition for 'Home Improvement.' Karn scored the position after 'Groundhog Day' star Stephen Tobolowsky had to drop out resulting from scheduling conflicts. Richard Karn, now fifty six, graduated from the University of Washington with a drama diploma and acquired his position on Home Improvement by means of a stroke of luck.

NBC Bans Songs From Olamide, 9ice and Davido
NBC Bans Songs From Olamide, 9ice and Davido
The National Broadcasting Corporation, NBC, banned five songs from Olamide, Davido and 9ice, considering them offensive for broadcast, according to the online portal Premium Times.
The forbidden songs are "Wo" from Olamide and "Wavy Level"; Davido "Fall" and "If (Remix)"; And the "living things" of 9ice.
The agency published the list yesterday, saying it forbade the five songs to air on Nigeria, though the Federal Ministry of Health issued a tweet Friday, said that the video on "Wo" Olamide had violated the Tobacco Control Act 2015.
Tweeting information through its official Twitter page, the ministry said the video, which features scenes from the ghetto where youngsters see themselves smoking, has fostered secondary smoking.
This is not the first time an Olamide song will be banned by the regulatory agency. In 2016, just a few months after banning one of their songs, 'Shakiti Bobo', NBC also banned, 'Do not Stop', which is a track of Olamide's fifth studio album, Eyan Mayweather, for his words Vulgar In defending the decision at that time, NBC said that the song was forbidden to be reproduced on the airwaves for its obscenity, indecent language, vulgar language, obscene and profane expressions.
Rapper Falz had also criticized Nigerian musicians who glamorized fraud with their lyrics in June, critics fans tried to be targeted at 9 years for" living things ".
The actor and rapper have said that the recent trend of catching Internet scammers in music is not helping future generations as youngsters begin to see this as a normal way of life. He recited personal experience of the challenges faced by Nigerians in other countries as a result of cybercrime.
Persons who produce or advertise promotional, promotional or sponsorship content will be sanctioned with a fine of not less than N3,000,000 and imprisonment for a period of not more than one year.
If the principles of tobacco control law are followed by him, then the rapper covers a risk of N3 million fine, a year in prison in the video "Wo."

I don't know that I've posted any pictures of any rodeos. This is a huge part of our life, and I should have posted some action shots.
This is a picture of one of our traveling partners. Many rodeos are far away, we hook up with other families who travel, and make it a group effort. This is a bullrider.
The bullrider straps himself to a bull with a rope. He wears a protective helmet, and vest. He also wears spurs and chaps. Bullriders take a ton of beating, and complain very little about it. On the bull is of course the bull riders rope, and a flank rope. This goes around the bull's belly, and is there to enhance the bull's natural talents. Most of the time flank ropes are not tight at all. I've sat in the bleachers at many rodeos, and listened to the spectators around me. They comment that the ropes are tight, or are there to injure the bull to make him mad. However, this couldn't be further than the truth. Take a string, and tie it around your finger. feels weird uh? That's the same as putting a flank rope on a bull. Oh and trust me. You don't want to injure your bulls. They are usually more expensive then the truck and trailer they rode in on. And some bulls just don't like people being in the ring with them. We have one that will let you scratch his head in the pasture. But in the arena...he will grind you into the dirt.
Mutton busting:
I don't have any pictures of Jimmy riding. Holy geesh!!! Next rodeo, I'll have some. My parents should be there. The reason why I don't have any is that I help put him on his sheep every time. SO I'm more concerned about yelling for him to hold on and pull up on his rope. But I'm sure they will get some good shots for me. This one is of me reloading the sheep whenever we we the stock contractors at a local arena.
So that's the rodeo. (At least all the pictures that I have.) I'll post some more in 2 weeks.

Hi all.
I've had a chronic sinus infection for about five months, and far too many rounds of antibiotics since mid 2012. I'm pretty sure i have a systemic candida overgrowth.
I've been trying the diet for about a month (a confused version of it), and need to sort that out. Cutting sugar has definitely helped.
I'm on a steroid nasal spray (Avamys), however, and have been since Dec 2012. I take one spray once a day, and my doctor is fairly insistent i keep taking it (to open up some of my sinus passages, without having to go in for surgery). I have heard that steroids aren't helpful w candida. My doctor says the spray format means I'm not getting that much into my bloodstream, but given the advice I've had from allergists and ENT specialists (none of them can really pinpoint what's going on re my ongoing sinusitis, extreme fatigue and compromised immune system), I feel doubtful that this is helping.
Any advice on whether I can keep taking it, or if i should consider taking a break?
Thanks 🙂March 31, 2013 at 5:45 am #101943

I've had surgery nov 29 because for the past 2 years I got sinus infections every 2 months. They loaded me with Augmentum the leading yeast antibiotic. Im so pissed at my ent. Now after surgery it did open me up a bit but I've already had 3 sinus infections. I use omnaris spray twice a day because my nasal passages get so swollen due to allergies. It's a bunch of crap, plus Im on allergy shots. So unfortunately I have to use the spray and I hope it's not killin me too muchMarch 31, 2013 at 7:34 am #101945
Man that sucks. I had heard of people still having problems after surgery (the thought of so many antibiotics afterwards makes me cringe now!!) My ENT thought my problem was mostly allergies, while my allergist thought my allergies weren't that bad (I think the candida is making them flare up). And I still have sinus infections.
Doctors have been the worst – prescribing antibiotics when they never work for my sinus infections. Looking at my history now, I think I have had candida issues for a while. My current doctor is pretty good – and mentioned i might have a systemic candida problem, but they are pretty useless at helping you deal with it.
I have to say any progress I have made has mostly come from alternative doctors (they told me to quit sugar, alcohol etc – my doctors would never have suggested that). I have much more faith in what they suggest, given that they take my entire health, emotional etc history into account. A friend has had good results with kinesiology for allergies (she diagnosed leaky gut and then diet remedies) and I'm trying homeopathy at the moment (which is a gentler approach – given we are already so stuffed with candida fatigue/frustration). I'll see how it all goes.
Man good luck. That really really sucks.March 31, 2013 at 4:09 pm #101954

I'm already feeling allergies since the pollen is budding. My nasal passages just get blocked so easy even with rinses twice a day. It's a continuous battle. Plus the yeast I have just drives me crazy. I love food so the diet is rough.April 1, 2013 at 8:53 am #101996
That sucks. I met a guy the other day whose entire face was swelling up due to allergies. He was having huge sinus problems.
I love food too. I love cooking as well – i'm trying to find some more good candida recipes that make me happier about it all. I feel ok until i'm around restaurants etc where pple are eating "normal" food. At least I'll be able to appreciate it when I can eat some things again.
I had a slip the other day with potato fries/chips (i guess i was testing myself to see if candida was actually the problem) and i felt horrendous the next day – like i was getting another bad turn with my sinus infection. It's prompted some obvious candida symptoms to return. At least I know that there's a definite link now – interesting.
I found this book a while ago called Sinus Survival by Rob Ivker – he advocates candida diets (if you're at risk) but also mentions some good stuff about emotional states, and things you can work on in that area. It's pretty interesting.

Since 1981, O Lavrador has been serving the cuisine of Portugal and Spain with a wide variety of dishes for every taste. "O Lavrador" means "the farmer" and indeed this charming gem of a restaurant in Jamaica resembles a rustic farmhouse, complete with stone arches, lots of wood, tile floors, tables dressed in starched, white linens topped with fresh flowers. The cozy dining room was nearly full on a recent weeknight with 3 large groups convened to celebrate birthdays and other springtime events. One table of 22 was easily accommodated and served in style while a nearby group of 12 colleagues shared a hearty meal together. Even with the groups, the vibe is sedate and relaxed, as the live guitar soloist fills the air with bossa nova sounds from Brazil Monday to Wednesday evenings. There were couples and small groups dining together as well, and they all come for the classic flavors of Portuguese cuisine, along with fabulous wine, beer and cocktails.
The Ferreira / Henriques Families, led by Edgar, Manuela and Mario, welcome all of their guests to this home away from home. The adjacent bar offers a lively scene and it is from here that the house sangria is mixed up, brimming with fruit and spirits. Portugal is famous for fabulous wines including vinho verde, or 'green wine,' which is a young wine characterized by its effervescence and light, fruity flavor. Try a caiprinha or a Portuguese beer or one of the red wines on the list.
Our friendly server Caitlin described the night's specials which included a whole red snapper served table side, barbecued veal chop, fried filet of whiting, or the hefty T-bone which my companion ordered. It was cooked to perfection and served with roasted potatoes and mixed vegetables. We started with the special grilled calamari appetizer, tender and succulent, prepared with a head of crispy garlic cloves and served with warm bread to soak up all the juices. The chef makes his own chouriço pork sausage which is incredibly delicious, thanks to its smoky, lean flavor. It is carefully set ablaze tableside, using spirits, to render the skin crispy and crunchy, while the meat inside is tender and very flavorful ($15). A great idea is to share the Iberian platter for 2 (or 3) people with a generous helping of shrimp in garlic and wine sauce, fried calamari, and Portuguese sausage along with a bottle of wine. Sopa de mariscos is a seafood soup replete with shrimp, crab, and clams in a creamy base ($9).
O Lavrador does an equally good job with meats as well as poultry and seafood so there's something for everyone. Traditional dishes include frango a Lavrador; tender chicken cutlets with tomato, shrimp and rice, and Mariscada Salsa Verde; a feast of lobster, calamari, scallops, clams and mussels swimming in a light, creamy, fragrant parsley sauce ($24). The same seafood mélange can be prepared in a spicy tomato sauce to be poured over a mound of linguine. Bacalhau or codfish is a national dish and this flaky fish is made in a number of ways such as bacalhau assado, grilled with potatoes, onions and tomatoes, or stewed with clams, mussels, shrimp, and calamari.
My baby lamb chops were perfectly grilled to a rosy finish with a fragrant rosemary sauce, accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes, piped into rosette shapes next to freshly sautéed vegetables ($21). Carne de Porco a Alentejana combines tender pork tenderloins with sweet clams in a rich, brown sauce that is just delicious. Keep it simple with grilled skirt steak, filet mignon with mushroom sauce, or a classic veal scalloppine. You'll even find some vegetarian options on the menu.
Even the desserts are classic here with flaming cherries jubilee, strawberries with fresh whipped cream, poached pears in Port wine, or warm chocolate fudge cake with vanilla ice cream. You must order a glass of Port to end your meal and linger over it while the music continues to soothe you.
O Lavrador is open seven days a week for lunch and dinner. The lunch special can't be beat at just $12 for one of their tempting entrées and either the soup of the day or salad. O Lavrador is the ideal place for your family party or business function with menus for everyone and all the details taken care of. Best of all, the location is convenient to all, just off the Van Wyck Expwy AND their own parking lot.
Any meal at O Lavrador is memorable, whether it's a romantic dinner for two, a small gathering of family or friends, or a party for 40, O Lavrador caters to you with the unique and delicious flavors from the Iberian Peninsula, served with love and pride in a warm and welcoming setting. Obrigada y bom apetite!

Arguably the best big man in the NBA could be on the move.
Arizona Sports' John Gambadoro reported Tuesday the Kings could ship off three-time all-star center DeMarcus Cousins to the Suns in exchange for former first-round pick center Alex Len, small forward T.J. Warren, a first-round pick and possibly more.
The Panthers did it. If the Panthers can do it after the season they had (going 7-8-1 in 2014) … But we're going to win the Super Bowl. If they can do it, why can't we?
Carolina went 15-1 and reached Super Bowl 50 in an impressive comeback season in 2015, though the team fell to Denver in the championship game. Jackson even scored the game's first touchdown, and is confident he can spark the same explosive performance to end the postseason drought in Jacksonville after posting a lousey 3-13 record in 2016.
I'm very confident. It truly feels different … I think it's a lot of guys coming Cheap Epl Jerseys in here Cheap Eagles Jerseys and coming to Jacksonville saying, 'I'm gonna change this. I'm gonna do this. I'm gonna do that,' Jackson said. We have leaders. We have a lot of great players. We just need to be consistent, and that's on all three sides of the ball: offense, defense and special teams.
I think having that and being who we all are, it should be a great year. After the Super Bowl, we're going 16-0, we're going all the way.
Jackson, 27, become the NFL's fourth-highest paid defensive lineman on a hefty six-year contract worth $86.1 million.

SOAS: No immigration raids on campus
While the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) in London was sponsoring Refugee Week in the UK, the management of this international university were hosting an immigration raid on campus. The hypocrisy was not lost on students who quickly occupied directorate offices in opposition to the arrest and detention of nine so called 'illegal' cleaning staff by border police. Student's opposition and speedy action has already brought results. SOAS Principal Paul Webley was forced to make a request to the home secretary to grant all the cleaners leave to remain in the UK. So far, his demand has fallen on deaf ears, but SOAS chiefs may not be so quick to cooperate with the government's anti-immigrant agenda in future.

This film shows students protesting against cleaners being deported. they were immigrants who were working hard to support their families, paying rent, and paying taxes, yet they were treated so cruelly. I felt really proud of all the students and SOAS workers that stood together and protested against this injustice.
flintoff said:
This film covers and occupation and a demonstration of SOAS by students protesting against the deportation of some cleaning staff. It contains footage of the demonstration and includes interviews with participants, and suggests that in the future management at the university will be less keen to be quite so accommodating to the authorities on this issue.

A couple things did happen this week, but I don't really have the time to write about it, so I'll just sum it up:
1 – My husband and I discussed NaNoWriMo. I'll detail our conversation later.
2 – I was not able to contact my last two beta readers (not enough time to write a decent email)
3 – Two days of cleaning is exhausting, but add packing, shopping, and cleaning someone else's house, and I'm ready for sleep.
4 – I will be waking up at 3:30 am on Tuesday morning for a flight. Joy.
