It reminds me of our old favorite Pumpkin Pot Stew. The firrst is a French recipe, the second Argentine. As Dorie Greenspan notes in the NPR story we could use some culinary diplomacy in politics.http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=130704456 The pumpkin could be the key.
The best part of both of these recipes is you can apply your creativity very easily.
Pumpkin Stuffed With Everything Good
Makes 2 very generous servings
1 pumpkin, about 3 pounds
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 pound stale bread, thinly sliced and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
1/4 pound cheese, such as Gruyere, Emmenthal, cheddar, or a combination, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
2–4 garlic cloves (to taste), split, germ removed, and coarsely chopped
4 strips bacon, cooked until crisp, drained, and chopped
About 1/4 cup snipped fresh chives or sliced scallions
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
About 1/3 cup heavy cream
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment, or find a Dutch oven with a diameter that's just a tiny bit larger than your pumpkin. If baked in a casserole, it will keep its shape, but may stick requiring service from the pot — which is an appealingly homey way to serve. Baked on a sheet, you can present it freestanding, but take care in moving it.
Cut a cap out of the top of the pumpkin (think Halloween jack-o'-lantern) working the knife at a 45-degree angle. Scrape away the seeds and strings from the cap and the pumpkin. Season the inside of the pumpkin generously with salt and pepper, and put it on the baking sheet or in the pot. Toss the bread, cheese, garlic, bacon, and herbs together in a bowl. Season with pepper and pack the mix into the pumpkin. The pumpkin should be well filled -adjust the amount of ingredients accordingly. Stir the cream with the nutmeg and some salt and pepper and pour it into the pumpkin to nicely moisten the ingredients.
Put the cap in place and bake the pumpkin for about 2 hours — check after 90 minutes — or until everything inside the pumpkin is bubbling and the flesh of the pumpkin is tender enough to be pierced easily with the tip of a knife. Because the pumpkin will have exuded liquid, remove the cap during the last 20 minutes or so, so that the liquid can bake away and the top of the stuffing can brown a little.
When ready, carefully, very carefully — it's heavy, hot, and wobbly — bring it to the table or transfer it to a platter that you'll bring to the table.
Cut wedges of the pumpkin and filling; or spoon out portions of the filling, making sure to get a generous amount of pumpkin into the spoonful; or n dig into the pumpkin with a big spoon, pull the pumpkin meat into the filling, and then mix everything up.. Served in hearty portions followed by a salad, the pumpkin is a perfect cold-weather main course; served in generous spoonfuls or wedges, it's just right alongside the Thanksgiving turkey.
Greenspan's Stuffing Ideas
There are many ways to vary this arts-and-crafts project. Instead of bread, I've filled the pumpkin with cooked rice — when it's baked, it's almost risotto-like. And, with either bread or rice, on different occasions I've added cooked spinach, kale, chard, or peas (the peas came straight from the freezer). I've made it without bacon, and I've also made and loved, loved, loved it with cooked sausage meat; cubes of ham are another good idea. Nuts are a great addition, as are chunks of apple or pear or pieces of chestnut.
2 1/2 T oil, divided use
2 lbs. Rump or chuck roast, cubed
1 clove garlic, minced
2 medium onions, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
2 large tomatoes, chopped
1 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1 t sugar
21 ounces beef broth
1 dozen pitted prunes
6 ounces dried apricots
2 sweet potatoes, cubed
2 new potatoes, cubed
10 ounces frozen corn
1 large pumpkin, cleaned.
Saute meat until brown in 1 T oil.
Separately saute onion, garlic and red pepper in remaining oil. Combine with all the other ingredients except corn and cook one hour. Add corn and transfer to pumpkin (bottom trimmed to sit flat).
Cover with pumpkin top or foil and bake at 325 for 1 1/2 hours or more. Serve in pumpkin. (see above for serving options) (Do not store leftovers in pumpkin).
Makes 8 to 10 servings.

The following anonymous guest post is by a doctoral candidate at a public research university in the United States. In this post, he discusses experience with comprehensive exams often required for doctoral study, and the ways such exams mirror hazing patterns in other institutions and groups.
As many graduate students know, comprehensive exams (sometimes also called preliminary exams, qualifying exams, prelims, comps, etc.) are often part of the grad school process. I'm sure I'm not the only person who heard horror stories about such tests from senior graduate students and faculty alike from the earliest days of grad school. The stories from graduate students went something like this:
"Oh my GOD. The semester you take the test is the worst semester of your life."
"Get ready to hate everything when you take them."
"I mean, people have failed before. It's been documented."
"Jeez, I don't even remember half the stuff from the test, but make sure you know the stuff for the exam."
"They're so hard. The worst. Ugh I hate them."
"Take them seriously or else you'll have to take them again."
From faculty:
"You will seriously need to study. Plan on doing nothing else the semester you take them."
"Your exams are what first demonstrate that you are going to be a scholar in (area X) of (discipline Y). So you need to take them seriously."
"You need to remember everything from the readings. Yes everything."
"People have failed them before."
"Take them seriously or else you'll have to take them again."
Now, in my particular situation the students were assigned or selected a certain number of texts to read in order to reflect their expertise in a specific area of the discipline. Then over the course of many hours (sometimes in one day, sometimes in two) they sat in a specified room and typed our responses. Faculty then assessed our responses and assigned a score. Then, we learned our score, but never saw the test again.
For me, as someone who struggles with anxiety, hearing all of this before taking my exams was extremely disconcerting. As I listened to my colleagues and faculty gush about the horror of the tests I started to wonder why we even do them anymore. Over and over again I heard graduate students and faculty alike reinforcing the notion that the tests need to be taken seriously, that they're intimidating, horrifying, traumatizing even.
In the midst of all this advice, multiple graduate students repeatedly told me that no one ever asked them about the test in the months/years after completing them, so "just get through it and move on". Each person I talked to portrayed their method of studying as the way to study for these tests. People shared their "survival strategies" with me in what seemed like an effort to soften the blow of this supposedly horrendous process.
When it came time for me to start studying, I kept all these things in mind: the terror of the test, the embarrassment that would come if I didn't pass, the stress of being a slow reader trying to get through thousands of pages of texts. I woke up in the middle of the night in a fit of anxiety more than once. It seemed my colleagues were right: comprehensive exams are terrible.
"But why?" I wondered to myself. "Why do they have to be terrible if this thing is just a valorized essay test that no one will ever ask me about ever again in my life once it's over?" it was during this reflection that I realized that all comprehensive exams really are is a glorified hazing process for graduate students.
And I get it, if you think about it as a hazing process it all makes sense:
The tests are framed as the thing that will make you an expert in a field. This framing reinforces the notion that they are not only important, but that if we all really want to be experts then we need to do really well on them. In reality, a completed dissertation or set of publications is more likely to reflect your expertise in a given area, but pointing this out might undermine the ritual of comprehensive exams.
The tests are vaguely framed as scary and something we need to take seriously, even though most people pass, most programs allow you to take them more than once, and no one will ever ask you about them ever again. This fits the guidelines of a hazing ritual perfectly. If we aren't repetitively told that the tests are scary then maybe we would see them for what they really are: timed essays shrouded in hype. Also, if students are scared into (over) studying for the test, then faculty can say "you must not have studied hard enough" in the face of someone who does fail. In this framework, failing the test becomes a personal failure, instead of a problem with the structure of the examination, and the structure of academia more broadly. Namely how the structure itself is specifically disadvantageous to neuro-atypical, racial/class/gender/sexual minority students who have been told over and over that we aren't good enough, will never be good enough, and can't succeed.
"Surviving" makes you one of the team, and then you get to tell future generations how awful the process is. This makes me think of a friend of mine who was involved in Greek life during his time in undergrad. A few years before he pledged his fraternity, their chapter got in trouble for hazing. As a result, they were under serious surveillance from the national office of their fraternity. The brothers who were seniors during his freshman year were the last pledge class to get hazed and were extremely bitter that the incoming class didn't have to navigate the same emotionally stressful, degrading, "bonding" activities that they did. To these older brothers the initiation of my friend's pledge class cheapened the meaning of brotherhood.
Comprehensive exams, as they exist now in many programs, operate in effectively the same way: Faculty and senior graduate students who made it through this format get to maintain boundaries between "them" and "us", those who are "in" on the knowledge and those who are "out." They do this by engaging in the same, ritualistic scare tactics that they experienced before they made it through the process, and in so doing justify and reinforce the meaning of their own experiences with the hazing process. Otherwise something that they spent a significant portion of their time in graduate school worrying about might be rendered meaningless.
Once you pass them, they don't really matter. I took my comprehensive exams. I passed. And I've never been asked about them since (with the exception of other nervous graduate students who will take them in the future).
Now, to be fair, I learned a lot while studying for the tests, and it was not a total loss. I also understand the argument that we need to have something in place to make sure that people who are getting PhDs are truly experts in a field. I agree, I'm just not convinced that this format of evaluation is it. I also know that not all programs use this format, in fact some of them have (what I think) are much more useful evaluation methods.
For example, in an academic context where publishing is becoming increasingly more important, why not have students review a specific body of theoretical literature, craft a paper that makes a new theoretical contribution, and then submit it for publication? This format allows students to get the experience of reading broadly and deeply across a field, and the written result of all that work isn't thrown into a vault where their ideas just waste away. Students could also do an archival research project of all the literature in one or two journals that relate directly to their dissertation topic and give an oral or written (but not timed) defense of that literature. Doing this could help students expedite their dissertation proposals and would give them a wide and deep understanding of their disciplinary sub-field/ fields.
I don't expect changes to the current format overnight. So while what I mention above are just two potential alternatives to this format, I would like to share some thoughts for students who may be getting ready to take comprehensive exams that look like the ones I took:
Do take them seriously, but remember that they are not the end of the world. Yes, these tests do determine when/if you get to move on in the program, but they are not the be all and end all of your worth as a scholar or a human being.
If your program allows you to take comprehensive exams more than once, think about the first time you take them as a practice round. This is easier said than done, especially when the implicit knowledge around one's department might be that failing is shameful. However, if you can do this it helps put them in perspective – just think, if you have to take them again at least you will know what you're getting into. Also, you can spend the semester(s) between the first and second time taking them as a chance to work on your dissertation proposal, and then defend your proposal immediately after you (in all likelihood) pass them the next time.
Hey, senior graduate students and faculty, stop treating failing like its shameful. If you passed, good for you, but just because someone doesn't pass their first time (or ever) doesn't lessen their value. Help shrink this as a departmental (and academy-wide) norm. Yes, there might be people who fail because they didn't study, but it can often be significantly more complicated that that. Again, minority scholars specifically are told their whole lives how likely we are to fail at any time. Instead of reinforcing this logic, work to create an environment where students can do better the next time.
Develop your own studying method(s). In the months leading up to comprehensive exams you will likely be inundated with advice on the best study methods. Really, the best method is whatever works for you. Maybe you audio record conversations you have with yourself about the readings, maybe you make flashcards. You could be someone that needs to structure every hour of their day, or a person to whom that degree of structure feels suffocating. Perhaps you discuss the readings with a study buddy over drinks or coffee, or conversely, you might like to study more solitarily. These and dozens of other methods exist – trust yourself to figure out the one that works best for you and run with it.
Don't lose yourself. Take some evenings off and hang out with friends (or not), allow yourself to watch Netflix between a reading or two, take a long walk and listen to music – whatever feels like a relaxing activity to you, don't be afraid to do it. In all likelihood that one evening, or one episode of Breaking Bad won't make or break your experience with comprehensive exams.
All in all, we could seriously use a critical examination of the pedagogical reason these tests exist in this fashion. For now, though, hopefully this framing will help bring the process back down to earth for folks who will be managing this ritual in the future.

Many years ago I had an experience that significantly changed my life. I belonged to a Bible Church where the scriptures were taught word by word from the original Greek and Hebrew. I was deeply involved in this church. I loved the Word as it was being taught I couldn't get enough…
I believe the year was 1983. The Pastor said something truly despicable, even though, at that moment I was not really aware of it—my Spirit knew instantly, however. Weeks or months passed before I realized that the talk of Apartheid (an Afrikaans word meaning "the state of being apart", "literally "apart-hood") was a system of legal segregation in South Africa. Although the statement made by the Pastor was a "personal point of view" my whole life exploded! How could a person of Spirit say such a thing? I had been brought up in the South. I had experienced segregation first hand—and could not comprehend why one set of people would believe that they were somehow inherently better than another set of people! This philosophy never made any sense to me—NEVER EVER…
Even though I was not totally aware, those 30+ years ago, that event set me on the journey that has led me to tell the story of my search and discoveries for truth. Over the years I would find myself wanting to publish. (I had been writing most of my life.) Circumstances would interfere. I would sabotage myself and the desire would be beat down to an ember—but it never went completely out. Years later, the ember would find fuel again in my studies, and again become the flame of desire—only to be beat down, yet again. I find myself here, now, and several things have coalesced: timing, research, new understanding, my age and most importantly I have found my voice!
If you know me, you know that I am constantly reading. I love to study history and philosophy and business and sociology and mythology and science and scripture – it's weird I know, but true. In the various resources that I have read since that momentous day I believe I have discovered a thread. A Spiritual Thread. The Universal Consciousness has laid it out for me. I admit that I've been searching; and that can be very problematic, because my mind just might have stuck stuff together to satisfy my desire to find this Thread! (That's weird; sort of circular) Scripture and Wisdom texts throughout time have advised us to seek the Truth. At first I just wanted to prove the Bible was irrelevant – but came to realize that it was just one of many similar versions of the same relevant story. And that was the puzzle!
I was seeking TRUTH, on my own (I didn't trust anyone else, anymore), with my perspective (brought me the most clarity and I could look wherever I wanted), through my reality.
What is my reality? Well, Military Service is part of my reality. I served in two branches of the military, actually – the Air Force and the Army. I will admit that my intentions at the time weren't always as noble as I'd like to believe they would be today. But the Universe had a hand in directing my life. I see that now. I see the purpose my path played in my belief system and understanding. It all works together for the GOOD! While in the Army I served with the First Battalion, 75th Infantry— RANGERS. I was Jump and Jump Master qualified, RANGER qualified and eventually served as RANGER Instructor. I made about 60 jumps during my military experience; most of them were with equipment and at night. Because of my service, I have great compassion for our Military service people, Police and Firemen and women. You serve and often make the ultimate sacrifice in that service for others. There is no higher calling! There is no greater gift! For all of you Service men and women, you should find solace, encouragement and support in my blogs. I have come to understand that our Service is not only necessary, but also an important aspect of the Fundamental Principles.
My wife, Mollie. She is my constant support, and love of my life. Thank you Mollie for all that you do for me. Although they may swear it's not true; my children Jeremy and Charmian are the most wondrous gifts I was blessed to have a part of. Writers and teachers like Joseph Campbell, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Dr. David Hawkins, Lao Tzu, and the Dali Lama, Jesus Christ, the Buddha and many, many others. My mother-in-law Dede Wright, who recently passed on to her better place, was certainly an Angel incarnate. I could only hope to be more like her in everyway.
I have tried to tell you a little about me. Let you inside a little part of myself to show the struggle and search for Truth. I am filled with the Spirit when I say that my only hope in my writing and teaching is to lead others to the same beauty of life that I have so far experienced. The Universe will do the rest – I am but an instrument designed to encourage others in the Way of Truth.

Visiting hours
Visiting your family and friends at St Joseph's Hospice is very flexible. You may need to visit our in-patients wards at any time so we don't have any set 'visiting hours'.
Here you can find out some important information to help you plan your visit.
Some important points to consider
- Please bear in mind that receiving too many visitors, for too long, may exhaust your loved ones. Remember they may need to rest.
- Sometimes we may have to limit the number of visitors for clinical reasons.
- Visitors should come into the Hospice through the reception area and sign in on entry and again on exit for security reasons.
- Children must be supervised at all times.
- Pets may also visit but you should talk to one of the staff about this first.
A limited number of fold up beds are available for family members to use for overnight stays near to the patient and there is also an overnight room on each ward for visitors.
If you have any questions about visiting, please speak to the Ward Manager or any member of the Ward Senior Nursing Team.

Rattle Can: Repainting my 1981 Vespa p200
I decided to rebuild my Vespa p200, and it was a scary and intimidating process. To give myself a break from the high-stakes stress, I decided to give the old lady a budget facelift with a few rattle-cans cans of spray-paint. She'd already been repainted a few times by prior owners, so I wasn't worried about destroying the value of the original factory paint. Here's a video of me doing what I do best: forging ahead with little information, no knowledge and no plan.
Have to say, though: the Vespa came out looking much better than she was before, and that was my benchmark of success.
If you're interested in the full story of the rebuild, please click here. I rebuilt the p200 with the Haynes Manual , a YouTube video, and as little help as possible from the guys at Vespa Motorsport.

Talos Energy, Inc., is a firm in the energy, oil, and gas industry which was established in 2012. They are a privately held firm which was co-founded by four businessman who are Timothy S. Duncan, John A. Parker, Stephen E. Heitzman, and John L. Harrison. They do offshore exploration for oil and gas and are also do production. Their explorations take place in the Gulf of Mexico.The Zama well, which is located off the shores of Mexico, has been a big success for Talos Energy. It was only within the past few years that Mexico started allowing any private-sector companies to explore for oil within their territory outside of their state-run company.
This changed and Talos Energy capitalized on this when they made one of the first discoveries of an oil and gas deposit. Drilling of the Zama-1 well began in July 2017. It drilled down 11,100 ft and found a source of oil that they estimate contains somewhere between 1.4 to 2 billion barrels worth of oil. This was a huge discovery and an executive of one of their partners on the project, Sierra Oil and Gas's Subsurface Director Mark Shann, commented that he hadn't seen anything like the Zama-1 well discovery in his entire career.This discovery of oil by Talos Energy in the Sureste Basin made big headlines in their industry. It is being hailed as a super basin and will be a very highly productive well.
The team at this company is now eying a nearby basin as well called Tampico-Misantla which could potentially be another super basin with a billion to two billion in barrels of oil.Talos Energy, Inc. was Talos Energy, LLC up through April of 2018. They made this change after acquiring Stone Energy Corporation in a $1.9 billion deal. The combined company is headquartered in Houston, Texas and they also have offices in two Louisiana cities, New Orleans and Lafayette. The board of directors now has six members that came from Talos Energy and four members that came from Stone Energy. Talos Energy now trades on the NYSE under the symbol "TALO".

Marx and primitive accumulation: The continuous character of capital's "enclosures"Share on Facebook Share on Twitter
In the last twenty years the neoliberal orthodoxy become predominant in all major levels of government and shaped the policy recommendations of the major think tanks all around the world. Countries have witnessed continuous massive attacks on those functions of the state which were designed to compensate for the inadequacies and injustices of the market. Cuts in social spending have taken of course many forms and shapes. This depended on what was the historical and socioeconomic context in which they were implemented, either the "rich" countries of the North, the "poor" countries of the South or the "transitional" countries of the East. Yet, upon a cursory reading of the enormous literature on this subject, one is left with the strong sensation that there is something common between, say, the cut in unemployment benefits in Britain brought about by the need to balance the budget; the wave of privatisation in Poland, brought about by the need to dismantle state socialism; and the cuts in food subsidies in Tanzania, brought about by the need to repay foreign debt. This paper suggests that a reinterpretation of Marx's theory of primitive accumulation may give us some important insights on the common social character of what prima facie appears to be different policies brought about by different circumstances…Tags: Enclosures

In these passages, day and time mean the Lord's Coming. A day or time of darkness, gloom, thick darkness, no light, devastation, the iniquity of the end, or destruction means the Lord's Coming, when he is no longer recognized and therefore when there is nothing left of the church.
A day that is cruel or terrifying, a day of blazing anger, wrath, panic, visitation, sacrifice, retribution, distress, war, or shouting means a coming of the Lord for judgment.
A day when Jehovah alone will be exalted, when he will be one and his name one, when the branch of Jehovah will be beautiful and glorious, when the righteous will flourish, when he will bring [a young cow and two sheep] to life, when he will search for his flock, when he will make a new covenant, when the mountains will drip with new wine, when living waters will go forth from Jerusalem, and when people will look back to the God of Israel (and many similar expressions) mean the Coming of the Lord to set up a new church that will recognize him as Redeemer and Savior.

General Dental Solutions
General dentistry is a broad area, seeing that the sort of orthodontic solutions supplied can be executed by any type of dental practitioner, specialized or otherwise. Several of the procedures done and also services are:
1. Analysis as well as Precautionary Dental care
The goal of preventive dentistry is to stop the advancement of oral issues and also to eliminate the opportunities of them creating altogether. Several of the treatments done include scaling, which is the removal of plaque as well as tartar making use of an ultrasonic scaler. Sealants work like dental fillings but can be placed prior to the dental caries create. They are made use of especially on youngsters's teeth, which go to a better risk of developing decays.
Precautionary orthodontic care begins in your home, by routine brushing, at least twice a day, eating healthy foods as well as flossing effectively.
At the dental experts' office, your teeth, gum as well as tissue wash be analyzed using special dental cameras as well as x-rays. This provides the dental professionals an opportunity to see as well as sense any sort of troubles with the interior frameworks of the teeth.
2. Corrective
As suggested by the name, it is the adjustment of existing problems
The treatments consist of origin canals and also Dental dental fillings. Fillings, made of gold, silver or porcelain are placed in dental caries to cover them up and also bring back the performance of the tooth. The most common location where caries develop are on molars and premolars. The Australian Institute of Health as well as Well-being reported in 2012 that dental caries is the most usual illness among Australians. This data was gotten from the National Study of Adult Oral Health.
Broken or damaged teeth are in some cases additionally treated utilizing fillings.
An origin canal is done when the pulp is badly infected. The pulp of the tooth is a quite vulnerable area. It includes living cells in charge of supplying nutrients to the tooth. When it is contaminated, the danger of losing the entire tooth visit the site boosts greater than two times. Often the tooth sheds sensation when the nerves are contaminated. The origin canal dental filling is done to save the tooth instead of you losing it. Exactly what takes place is that the dental practitioner drills into the pulp, with the patient under anesthesia, as well as removes the contaminated part. Some nerves are also gotten rid of if they are impacted.
The part of the pulp that is eliminated is changed by a filler compound called gutta percha. It is difficult, and also sealed right into place while in dissolved kind. Sometimes, after root canal therapy, the cusps of the teeth are covered utilizing a crown to cover it.
Oral implants are also restorative.
Surgical treatment is done when all other methods show inefficient or after preliminary exam by the basic dental professional.
Aesthetic Dentistry
As long as even more intricate treatments in visual dentistry requirement experts like prosthodontists, a basic dentist can repair veneers. These are colored like the enamel, made mainly out of porcelain as well as put on over the teeth to cover discolorations or to hide nicked teeth. Where tooth reduction by forming is required prior to putting the veneer, you may be referred to a specialist relying on the degree of
Lightening or lightening, is likewise an aesthetic procedure that can be done. Chemicals or a combination of these and light are utilized to lighten the teeth. Afterwards, it can be safely recommended that you do the rest of the lightening in your home.

The year is speeding to a close, and with it comes the need to plan ahead for future events that might be of interest for those who work with marine equipment and vessels.
The Underwater Intervention event is being held this year from February 11 to 13 in New Orleans. Interested parties might want to start planning right now in order to make sure they're prepared to attend. Anyone who maintains ROV operators or other kinds of aquatic technology might benefit from meeting with people who travel in similar circles.
Because this convention looks to attract so many different kinds of people across related but separate industries, it might seem like one of events that are too big to get any meaningful exposure out of.
But as the website describes, the different industries present could provide your company some new perspective on an important issue that defines your business, or might help you "cross pollinate" a little with others. And even if your business doesn't have the history of convention attendance to inform your appearance there, you can pick up some pointers for future plans.
The technical sessions include categories like marine education and different types of ROVs, as well as general insurance. If you're looking for advice and to connect with someone who has experience with ROV insurance, you might encounter them here and leave with a knowledge of related systems, like robotics, diving technology and some of the activities that remote operated vehicles are designed for.
Browse our site to find out more about these tools' uses before attending this or any other marine industry convention.

You no longer have to stay awake all through the night because Good Morning Snore Solution provides you a great solution to your snoring problem especially if it has been plaguing you.

It is also has slight side effects that you can easily deal with. Some of these side effects are tongue tenderness and excess saliva. Even those who are wearing dentures or grinding their teeth can still use this product. Although it has been proven to be very effective, it should not be used by those with breathing problems. It should not also be worn over your teeth.
Mouthpiece For Snoring Is For Sound Sleep
Having a night's sound sleep is and should be the mantra for anyone who is genuinely interested in living a good and productive life. Unfortunately, people are in too much of a hurry and they have started to ignore the fact that the quality of life is not of great value. These people have started pretending that there is no problem and that even if there is one, it can be easily managed. These are also the people who refuse to believe that the mouthpiece for snoring can be effective. In fact, you can safely say that relationships undergo quite a bit of stress due to this stubbornness in the one that snores.
The simple fact of the matter is that it is a mouthpiece for snoring and it can be so easily bought online. You can keep it by the side of your bed and use it diligently and see the positive results that come of it. The best part of it is that the habit is easy to develop and it only needs a commitment on your part. While you may find it easy to do so many other things as part of your work life or your social life, you may tend to ignore the quality of your own life and how much better it can be if you manage to get a night of uninterrupted sleep.
How Important Is It To Ask – Does Snorerx Work?
How easy is it to convince you that you need Snorerx? Do you need proof and answers to the question 'does Snorerx work' before you are willing to buy a device that will prevent your snoring? This is more to do with an unwillingness to take a chance with something that is going to help you in the long term. Why should your partner accept a life with you snoring when there is a very viable solution available in the market? It makes much more sense for you to go and find out the answer to a common question – does Snorerx work – and roll the dice by buying one.
Naturally, this is the only way you will learn firsthand and you can be convinced. Taking other people's opinions may work for some; however, there are those that need to gain firsthand knowledge on almost anything. It is not just about spending the money; it is more to do with the mental make-up of a person that needs more direct convincing. Therefore, you can do your part and test out the theory. You can either agree or disagree with the common belief that Snorerx works. Next time, you are asked the question, does this snoring mouthpiece work, and you will be able to answer confidently and truthfully.

Customer Reviews
My recent travelling was aided by cell food. We did lots of walking carrying a small backpack to keep jumpers and rain gear, in case the weather changed.
At the end of the day, as it was generally full on I was tired but still had energy to enjoy a good meal and any entertainment.
I am glad I had the cell food to keep me going and am still using it now I am home, after or before a full on day in the garden or other exercises.
Great products, great seller
I've purchased cell food from Lyfe.com multiple times now as it's a great price and I love to use it to remineralise my RO filtered water. Delivery is always speedy to which is great!

This is one of the best maca powders I have ever tried. It has a clean and subtle flavour, and most important, it works!
Really happy with product and with the time frame of delivery
Very prompt service

I was looking for this particular protein everywhere online and LYFE was the only online store with it. Had no issues with my order and delivery was quick. Very pleased (oh and loved the extra carob bear - thank you!!)
Very pleased with the price and prompt delivery. We have been purchasing this product for years and was pleased that we could still buy the full kilo pack.
I have been using acure products for a while now and love them. What I really want to comment on is the amazing customer service. From before to after purchase, the customer service has been nothing short of stellar.
I told the team that I was back in Australia and was stocking up on the product for when I when abroad again. I requested they check if the item was in stock and the Lyfe team went to check the warehouse in person to confirm that for me. Subsequently, the delivery company had some difficulty finding my place and that resulted in missed deliveries. I relayed my concern to the team as I was leaving in a few days. They assured me that I will have my parcel before I left. And yes, that happened! Someone from the company brought it to me in time!
The Lyfe team are a passionate company and I hope to see many more new products from them.
Well the package arrived promptly and just as well. My wife, sister-in-law and I had been sharing a bottle and it was running out. Now we have one each. I work a high pressure job as an Operation Manager in a SAAS company. The focus and clarity a few drops have brought to my day is amazing. I'm hooked :)
Great price, fast postage, Wonderful product. Can be mixed with anything.
Fast service to the NT only took 3 days
Super fast shipping and cheaper than purchasing from original supplier!
Top service wonderful product.
Cheap clif bars, all wel in date, will be buying again!
Incredible value oats. I love oats and these are better than what I've found at many of the health food stores around Sydney that qualify as "certified organic". And they're a 1/3 of the price. :)

I have been hooking up AutoMapper with Castle Windsor the same way for many years now.
Whilst the setup has always been functional, the static nature was never great and quite often the static Mapper.Map code ends up littered throughout the codebase.
The setup is now much more DI and unit test friendly.
The following code creates and registers a new mapper:
public class Installer : IWindsorInstaller { public void Install(IWindsorContainer container, IConfigurationStore store) { container.Register( Component.For<IMapper>().UsingFactoryMethod(x => { return new MapperConfiguration(c => { c.AddProfile<EntityToViewModelProfile>(); c.AddProfile<ViewModelToEntityProfile>(); }).CreateMapper(); })); } }
As you can see I am registering the interface IMapper in a Castle Windsor installer, a factory method is then utilized for creating the new MapperConfiguration.
My mapper profiles 'EntityToViewModelProfile' and 'ViewModelToEntityProfile' are added to the MapperConfiguration constructor.
Now the mapper is registered we can simply utilize it by injecting it into our class constructors for example:
private readonly IMapper mapper; public MyClass(IMapper mapper) { this.mapper = mapper; }
As you can see, this is a much cleaner and more testable approach.

Losevo puts great care into making its milk and various dairy products and sells them in shops that target the picky customer. The company needed a visual identity to launch its products on the St. Petersburg market. Our task was to come up with an image that would make Losevo products stand out from their competition and be associated with a higher price level and quality.
When we were designing the brand packaging, we wanted it to reflect the idea that real milk comes only in bottles. We picked the familiar milk bottle from the fair faraway land as the shape standard. As a result, we have light and neat packaging that evokes fond memories in the older generation and arouses interest in the younger one.
The brand logo and the product name logos are designed along the same lines. Each type of product is assigned its own hue. Products of one type varying in fat content are distinguished through different shades of the main hue. While designing the logos, we came up with an original type face stylized to resemble quill writing. The resulting letters were used in the lettering of all the logos.
The business documentation design is in sync with the packaging design and is based on bright colors, strict minimalism and a central composition.
Losevo asked our agency to do a photoshoot of their employees and their plant, which allowed us to go backstage and see the milk making process with our own eyes. We didn't limit ourselves to minimalism when designing Losevo brand carriers. For instance, our illustrator painted a canvas full of fascinating details — a whole world in a milk bottle — to be featured in the Losevo New Year calendar.

Our little world is not only getting smaller but more crowded with the population now exceeding seven billion people. India continues to lead the pack and is now slated to surpass China soon in total population growth. Our cities are getting bigger and bigger. My question would be are they building cities worth building a future in? Are they making the cities more lasting, livable and prosperous?
Two cities I am intimately familiar with are Dallas and Houston, Texas, and I would not live in either one. In Austin, Texas, at the height of rush hour, you can actually get out of your automobile and walk faster than the traffic moves!
But all the news is not dire, I hear that San Diego has a new light rail system and it is getting commuters home faster. They are now building electric sub-stations that are out of sight, in Las Vegas they have Microwave transmission towers that are camouflaged as pine trees. So in some cases, progress is starting to show up, albeit, slowly but surely.
The sad part of all this is in recent weeks we have watched people taking to the streets by the millions to protest political, economic, and social conditions in the big cities across our land, where the quality of life has eroded seriously, to epidemic proportions. Our cities are now turning into killing grounds for social misfits and predators, willing to put you down for a pack of Marlboro's. In some cases the best advice is "don't let the sun go down on you here."
On top of being dangerous, it is also unhealthy at the same time. This morning I am reading where it says that living in the city can be hazardous to your mental health according to scientists. A recent study in Germany has linked poor performance in math and other area's to living under stressful situations in big cities. Which should not come as any big surprise to anyone who has ever lived in or near a big city.
As I often like to consider myself a little bit ahead of the curve, I knew that one for a fact before I read it. Big City living will bring you down, faster than a Hong Kong Second. That is why I am a country dweller here in the Heartland. Lack of stress is why I live here, out in the sticks. (Okie speech)
There is just one apparent drawback to all of this. I live in El Reno, Oklahoma. And as most you know, Oklahoma is the Extreme Bad Weather Capitol of America. We have it all, thunderstorms, hail, floods, tornadoes. droughts and recently earthquakes. I get enough excitement here to last a lifetime. Regardless, I know I am better off here at the Goat Farm.
I know deep down that I would not adapt well to life in the Big City. You see … I already know how to drive and I cannot speak Spanish.
I used to read about the far away exotic and dangerous cities and places of the world with mystery and awe. I would read the stories of the poor and the downtrodden in the third world, the weak and the hungry. I would gaze upon the photographs and see the barrio's and the ghetto's where hope came to die.
Now days I read about what is going on here at home and I realize this.
America in its own way, is morphing itself into the very same thing, it has become like one of these distant troubled places, and I just thank my lucky stars, that I am here where I am.
Locked down in the country, down at the end of the Yellow Brick Road.

8 - 15 June 2012
Back in June 2012, Archbishop Peter Smith, Vice President of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, visited Kenya with the Church's agency for overseas aid and development, CAFOD.
Archbishop Smith was accompanied by CAFOD director Chris Bain as they experienced the contribution that CAFOD makes to a number of projects in the African country.
They visited Korogocho, one of the largest and most congested slums in Nairobi, with almost 200,000 people packed into less than a square mile. Education, health and sanitation are basic and there are few proper roads. Most residents lack affordable, clean water and have no electricity or regular source of income.
One project breaking through this cycle of poverty is the St John's Sports Society. In partnership with CAFOD, its focus is on human formation and community work using sport to transform Korogocho. As well as running sports programmes, the society organises social activities such as cleaning the local area. Archbishop Peter visited St John's and met Fr John Webootsa who introduced him to some of the young people who belong to the Sports Society.
In this CAFOD video, Archbishop Smith reflects on this visit to Kenya and explains how CAFOD's supporters in England and Wales have made a genuine difference to the people of Kenya.

What, you may ask, can you, a mere singer, maker of noise and general mayhem, be doing in such august and academic company? Well singing, making noise and general mayhem of course. Indeed we are planning the invasion of the museum by Minerva Scientifica and over 100 hundred children from Islington schools, which will lead to the singing of DNA, the story of Rosalind Franklin and the sounds of a few animals appearing together on a stage in Islington on March 18th.… check back here to see how it develops…… should be noisy!

Before phonographs, radios, motion pictures, and television, Americans embraced live music as one of the greatest means to entertain and strengthen ties between families and communities. In the late nineteenth century many American towns had a community brass band along with a bandstand near the center of town. These bands would have accompanied holiday celebrations, parades, political rallies, ribbon cuttings, and most other social events throughout the year. Military bands also became popular in the late nineteenth century to bolster national patriotism and morale and to accompany specific units in drill. In Washington, D.C., home to the Washington Marine Corps Barracks, the Washington Navy Yard, and the Washington Arsenal (later renamed Washington Barracks and today's Fort Lesley J. McNair), residents and service members enjoyed the entertainment provided by numerous professional military bands, one being the U.S. Engineer Band.
In 1880 nine men formed an informal band of engineer-musicians at the Engineer School in Willets Point, New York. The band's ranks swelled to sixteen in 1887 and to twenty-four in 1894. The War Department formally established the U.S. Engineer Band in 1901 just a few months prior to the Engineer School's relocation from Willets Point to the Washington Barracks in southwest Washington, D.C.
"The Melody Shop" march performed by the U. S. Army Field Band. First released in 1910, "The Melody Shop" march was one of composer Karl King's most popular songs and has remained a staple of military bands from Kamper's time until today.
The Engineer Band performed at various venues throughout the city, from the Smithsonian Gardens, Judiciary Park, or the south lawn of the White House to their home base at the Washington Barracks. The band drew crowds with a diverse repertoire of everything from fashionable polkas to many of the band standards (by Sousa, King, Fillmore, Wagner, and Tobani) we still listen to today.
Sgt. Julius Kamper rose to become the U.S. Engineer Band's Chief Musician in the early twentieth century. A Swiss immigrant, he was born in Rheinfelden in the northern canton of Aargau. He began studying music from the age of seven. Kamper specialized in the cornet but also played the violin, clarinet, and other instruments. Upon his graduation from high school, Kamper served his compulsory military service in the Swiss Army band and afterward toured Europe as a musician. Kamper emigrated to New York City in 1880 and performed with various bands there before joining the Engineer Band at Willets Point in 1883. Kamper followed the Engineer School and the Engineer Band to Washington, D.C., in 1901 and served as the band's director until his retirement in 1912. He continued living in the District of Columbia where he was active in the Shriner's Band and the Band of the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. Kamper passed away on December 28, 1936.
"The Invincible Eagle" performed by the United States Army Concert Band. Written by John Philip Sousa for the Pan American Expo in 1901, "The Invincible Eagle" has remained one of the most popular parade marches in the United States for over a century.
This selection of photographs is from the Charles Koeber U.S. Engineer Band Collection at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Office of History. The collection consists of materials associated with the donor's father, Edward Koeber, and uncle, Julius Kamper. Both were veterans who served in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War and who were members of the U.S. Engineer Band. The collection includes nearly 40 photographs depicting the Engineer, the Bureau of Engraving, and the Shriner bands and musicians, Camp Devens in Massachusetts, and Washington Barracks in D.C. Also part of the collection is a large scrapbook of newspaper clippings, music lists and programs, and other information about the activities of the Engineer Band. The book itself is a recycled Engineer Band morning report book from the late 19th century with the contents pasted over the original official information. The Office of History acquired the collection in April 2013 directly from the creator/donor Charles Koeber. The objects pictured below are part of the Office of History's general museum collection.
Please be advised that some of the images posted on this site are edited for visual clarity. The original versions, along with additional images from the Koeber collection, are located in the USACE Digital Library where they can be viewed and downloaded.

Here are all the fantastically amazing entries posted during July, 2012
Ukraine Proposes Jail For Positive Gay Depictions
Lawmakers in the Ukraine have introduced an anti-gay bill that would punish "propaganda of homosexuality" with fines and up to five years in prison.
Russia recently enacted a similar law this year, with expected disastrous results. Gay activists in the country have been arrested simply for marching for equal rights, and any positive portrayal of gay characters in TV and movies are now forbidden under penalty of severe fines and jail time.
According to one of the authors of the Ukrainian bill, the country's definition of "propaganda" is just as broad: "The positive description and the publicity […] of this abnormal lifestyle." While a voting date hasn't yet been set, it could happen as early as September—about a month away.
Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych hasn't indicated whether or not he supports this initiative. Hopefully Mr. Yanukovych will have some sense here, otherwise I'll be forced to boycott… uh… borscht?

Australia's Gay Panic Defence Get Challenged
Slap reader Tim writes in with this bit of news from Down Under:
Currently in Queensland Australia there exists a legal defence which allows a reduced sentence on murder of another person of the same sex if they hit on you. [There is a] petition put forward by Rev. Fr. Paul Kelly to try and get this defence removed as a valid legal defence.
The gay panic defence has been a very real—and very unjust—legal tool in the past, including in Canada. Up here, it's been invoked to explain assaults as recently as 2010, but has been considered a legal non-starter since its last successful use in 1994. (The murder of David Gaspard by Gary Gilroy was punished with a reduced sentence of only five years in prison after his killer cited gay panic as the reason for stabbing his victim 65 times.)
While this sort of bizarre logic is considered an antiquated relic nowadays, it's strange to hear that Queensland still permits it. Stranger still, The Premier of Queensland, Campbell Newman, has actually defended it, calling its revocation "unnecessary." Newman is no friend of the GLBT community, though. His government rolled back civil unions and cancelled funding for the state's GLBT health service, the Queensland Association for Healthy Communities.
As for the gay panic defence, though, there's something you can do: A petition has been started calling for the end of this legal antiquity, which has had no just purpose even when it was introduced in the 17th century. So, if you're concerned about what's happening in Queensland and you've got a few moments to spare, why not go and show your support?

Court Rejects Anti-Gay Lawsuit
An anti-gay group calling themselves New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms filed a lawsuit late last year to reverse the state's equal marriage law. Like most attempts to get same-sex marriage overturned, they gave themselves a delightfully ironic name; unlike other groups, however, they didn't seem to rely on the usual arguments about how families would be instantly vaporized or how children would now be used for cattle feed, etc. Instead they suggested that same-sex marriage is invalid in New York because two meetings of the Republican Senate's majority should have been held in public instead of privately leading up to the vote.
The case was rejected almost immediately in November, but New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms appealed to the state supreme court. On Friday, that court unanimously found that private meetings are perfectly allowable, adding that even if they weren't, it has nothing to do with why same-sex marriage should be banned in any fathomable capacity.
Well, that should have gone without saying.
Seriously, anti-gay lobbyists? Your arguments have always been deeply flawed, but this one isn't even fun. How am I supposed to get new material for this site when you're not mischaracterizing gay people in amusing ways anymore? Your next lawsuit had better involve accusations of conspiracy to release genetically engineered vampire pigeons, repurposed to inject schoolchildren with experimental gaydar genes or something. That just sounds a lot more fun to draw than someone following bureaucratic procedure improperly, you see.

Dancers: Start the Season on the Right Foot
Dr. Scott Levin Emphasizes Parents' Role in Preventing Injuries to Young Dancers
September 13, 2012
(HealthNewsDigest.com) - Carmel, NY, – With autumn leaves and the return to school, millions of young dancers also begin or resume dance studies. Dance is an artistic, athletic, expressive, and social form of physical activity that can be a valuable source of exercise for children and adolescents but can also be a cause of injury. "Dance is a highly demanding activity," says Dr. Scott Levin of Somers Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine Group. "Every dance performance requires flexibility, balance, power and endurance and many forms of dance require positions that place a great deal of stress on bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments. It's not surprising that many dancers sustain an injury at some point and that the foot, ankle and lower leg are particularly vulnerable." (more...)
Injury Prevention Tips for Musicians
Orthopaedic Hand Specialist Offers Tips to Musicians on Injury Prevention this Season
Carmel, NY (PRWEB) September 05, 2012
Music brings great joy to the world. But not without musicians paying a heavy price in occurrences of pain throughout their careers. Playing an instrument is physically demanding and practice and performing often require many hours a day in stressful positions that can cause pain, numbness, weakness, or lack of control in the wrist, hand, fingers, arm, elbow, shoulder, and neck. "Overuse injuries to the hand are a serious threat to all musicians, whether or not they play professionally," says Dr. Yariv Maghen of Somers Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine Group. "The hand is a very complex organ, with multiple bones, joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves. Repetition, fatigue, friction, vibration and awkward, static positions are all contributing factors to hand injuries in musicians." (more...)
Preventing Skateboarding Injuries
Dr. Andrew Peretz notes that while falls are inevitable serious injury can be prevented
(HealthNewsDigest.com) - Carmel, New York, August, 2012 - Every skateboarder is going to fall and unfortunately many are going to suffer an injury. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, skateboard injuries cause about 50,000 visits to the emergency rooms and 1500 hospitalizations of children/adolescents every year. Sixty percent of injuries involve children under age 15, mostly boys, and one-third of the injuries are suffered by being riders in their first week. "Skateboarding can be dangerous," says Dr. Andrew Peretz of Somers Orthopaedic Surgery & Sports Medicine Group, "but there are a lot of things skateboarders can do to prevent injuries and to minimize their severity when they do occur."

One of Brazil's least educated presidents — Mr. da Silva completed only the fourth grade — soon became one of its most beloved, lifting millions out of extreme poverty, stabilizing Brazil's economy and earning near-legendary status both at home and abroad.
But while Mr. da Silva has overcome his humble beginnings, his country is still grappling with its own. Perhaps more than any other challenge facing Brazil today, education is a stumbling block in its bid to accelerate its economy and establish itself as one of the world's most powerful nations, exposing a major weakness in its newfound armor.
"Unfortunately, in an era of global competition, the current state of education in Brazil means it is likely to fall behind other developing economies in the search for new investment and economic growth opportunities," the World Bank concluded in a 2008 report.
Over the past decade, Brazil's students have scored among the lowest of any country's students taking international exams for basic skills like reading, mathematics and science, trailing fellow Latin American nations like Chile, Uruguay and Mexico.The task confronting the nation — and Mr. da Silva's legacy — is daunting. Here in this dirt-poor northeastern town, where Mr. da Silva lived his first seven years, about 30 percent of the population is still illiterate, a figure three times higher than the national rate.
"A lot of parents say, 'Why should they study if there are no opportunities?' " said Ana Carla Pereira, a teacher at another rural school here.
As president, Mr. da Silva's own education policies got off to a slow start; he dismissed two education ministers before settling on one in 2005. Then the government's educational program did not start until 2007 — four years after Mr. da Silva took office.
Now in his last year in office and talking about his place in history, Mr. da Silva has an "obsession" with the issue, his education minister, Fernando Haddad, said, which was plain to see when he recently returned here to his childhood town.
"I want every child to study much more than I could, much more," he said while announcing a program to give laptops to students. "And for all of them to get a university diploma, for all of them to have a vocational diploma."
The urgency could hardly be clearer. Brazil has already established itself as a global force, riding a commodity and domestic consumption boom to become one of the largest economies in the world. With huge new oil discoveries and an increasingly important role in providing food and raw materials to China, the country is poised to surge even more.
