Ann Clwyd
Ann Clwyd was re-elected MP for Cynon Valley on May 7th 2015 with 14532 votes, taking 47.7% of the vote.
She is the daughter of Gwilym and Elizabeth Lewis. She lived in Pentre Halkyn in Flintshire and went to the Holywell Grammar School (now Holywell High School), then the independent Queen's School in Chester. She studied at the University College of Wales in Bangor. Although a Labour Party member as an adult, as a pupil, Clwyd once won a mock election as a Plaid Cymru supporter in her school. She was a student teacher at Hope School in Flintshire. She worked as a journalist, working for the BBC as a studio manager and then became Welsh correspondent for the Guardian and Observer newspapers for 1964-79. She was Vice-Chair of the Arts Council of Wales from 1975-9.
She was the unsuccessful Labour candidate in Denbigh in 1970 and Gloucester in October 1974. From 1979 to 1984, Ann Clwyd was MEP for Mid and West Wales. She was elected to Parliament in a byelection following the death of Ioan Evans and became the first woman to sit for a Welsh valleys constituency. She served as Shadow Minister of Education and Women's Rights from 1987 but was sacked in 1988 for rebelling against the party whip on further spending on nuclear weapons. She returned as Shadow Secretary of State for Overseas Development from 1989 to 1992 and then served as Shadow Secretary of State for Wales in 1992 and for National Heritage from 1992 to 1993.
She was the Opposition Spokesperson for Employment from 1993 to 1994 and for Foreign Affairs from 1994 to 1995 when she was again sacked, along with Jim Cousins, for observing the Turkish invasion of Iraqi Kirkuk without permission. In 1994 she staged a sit-in down Tower Colliery mine in her constituency to protest at its closure.
She was a member of the International Development Select Committee from 1997 to 2005. Having been prominent in her concern for the situation in Iraq before the war there in 2003, Tony Blair made her a Special Envoy on Human Rights in Iraq in the run-up to the War. She was the first journalist to put forward claims that some Iraqis were killed in woodchippers. On 9 August 2004, she became a member of the Privy Council.
Clwyd was a Vice-Chair of the Parliamentary Labour Party from 2001 until 2005, and was elected as Chair by 167 to 156 (beating Tony Lloyd) on 24 May 2005. However on 5 December 2006 she was defeated by Lloyd by 11 votes when she sought re-election, with her closeness to Tony Blair being cited as a reason for her defeat.
She is currently Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Human Rights Group and the All Party Parliamentary Iraq Group. She is Vice-Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Coalfield Communities, and Secretary of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Cambodia. She is a former Chair of the British Group of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), an Executive Member on the (IPU) Committee on Middle East Questions and an Executive Member on the (IPU) Coordinating Committee of Women Parliamentarians. She has been appointed by the Prime Minister as a Member of the British Delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council for Europe
She was admitted to the White Robe of the Gorsedd of Bards at the National Eisteddfod of Wales in 1991; is an Honorary Fellow of the University of Wales, Bangor, and the North East Wales Institute of Higher Education which awarded her a University of Wales honorary degree. She holds an Honorary Doctorate of Laws from Trinity College, Carmarthen for her contribution to politics and as a human rights campaigner.
She was a Member of the Arts Council 1975-79, the Vice Chair of the Welsh Arts Council 1975-97. She was on the Royal Commission on the NHS 1976-79

My name is Bridget. I'm a 17 year old foodie living in Orange County, California, and I am probably the most restless person ever. I crave adventure, and long for days when I can go out, explore new places, and see new things. I am at my happiest when I have the chance to visit places I haven't been before and take in new experiences.
Jesus is #1 in my life, and I do my best to live for Him every day. My faith is very important to me, and I strive to grow closer to God in all that I do. I loooove reading the Bible and listening to worship songs.
I created this blog to document my adventures around where I live, and places I travel to around the world (and lots and lots of food places!!). I hope it gives you inspiration to further explore where you live and travel!

The puppies like to go out around 4 am which means I get up take em out and then tend to stay awake but geez it's not even 8 yet and I'm ready to go back to bed LOL.
The wife wants me to take the back seat out of the Handivan and put in a recliner...
I've actually got one that's blue and will fit but don't tell her please but she did notice I was walking around it with a tape measure and I have visions of a roll cage to hold a swing crane and being the packrat I am I've got a box of conical bearings some 8 inches across for the bunker blast door but also some smaller one's that are around 3 plus a ram for my cherry picker I could scarf so I'm thinking of a rotating crane to get her from the power chair to the recliner.
This may count as over kill.

Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) is a vital defense against climate change and displacement, particularly in the current context of increasing numbers of disaster-affected persons. In the last two decades, for example, an estimated 200 million people have been affected every year by natural disasters. A significant portion of the disaster-affected community is also disaster-displaced, making them even more vulnerable to human rights violations. The Operational Guidelines on Human Rights and Natural Disasters, developed by the RSG for Human Rights of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), provides recommendations to humanitarian organizations on how to ensure that the human rights of those affected by natural disasters are upheld. Yet it is equally important to examine how the risk of natural disasters can be reduced and we need to think about practical steps which can be taken to mitigate the effects of disasters.

The Heller Curse brought many strange cases to his attention, which started to draw negative attention. By the time he made detective, he was known for his involvement in macabre crimes and something of a local expert in the occult.
During an unknown case in Kent, Washington, involving demonic possession, Jacob Heller suffered a major trauma to his hands and was forced to kill the demon's host body. As the demon's human host was a young boy, Jacob has suffered nightmares since then.
His injuries forced him to retire and so Jacob again followed in his father's footsteps and became a private investigator.

I was unsure whether I wanted to write this or not, as the subject has already received enough attention to make me feel a little embarrassed, but I thought attempting to provide some positive words after yesterday's debacle would be welcomed.
As many of you may have seen already, I received an incredible gift from Johnnie Jackson in the week. The skipper, responding to a post I wrote recently about how I currently feel, sending his support and best wishes on a signed shirt. No shame in admitting that I've done a reasonable amount of crying since opening the package on Wednesday evening.
It not just the incredibly meaningful words, that felt so personal and will be treasured for the rest of my days, that mean so much to me, but the gesture itself. The captain of my football club, our football club, going out of his way to send something so wonderful directly to me. Just thinking about it overwhelms me.
As is the case for so many, Jackson is a player I adore and idolise. The perfect captain of this football club, whose efforts in over 200 appearances have earned him hero status.
But so too, as a consequence of how I feel, have I felt a very strong emotional attachment to the skipper in previous years. His ability to provide moments of joy with important goals when I've felt incredibly low, his attitude that suggests he cares about this club as much as anyone in the stands, and his general character that makes him a figure that belongs to the Charlton I once was, and want to be, distracted by. He's an important figure to me.
And to know that this important figure, who exists somewhat in the distance as any footballer or personal hero does, genuinely cares about me, at a time when I struggle to care about myself, is simply incredible. I just can't get over the fact he's gone out of his way, without any sort of suggestion from anyone else, to send this wonderful gift my way.
And it not just the skipper who warrants thanks, but those of you who have gone out of your way to say incredibly lovely things in the previous few days. Complete strangers offering support, and providing words than challenge my non-existent sense of self-worth and value. It really has been overwhelming, and I can't justify just how much it means to me.
Of course, for every kind word sent my way, there has been 2,000 sent the way of Jackson, and there no question that that is completely deserved. A gesture that has reaffirmed his hero status in SE7.
In fact, as many have pointed out, not only is Jackson a figure that represents our Charlton, but so to a reminder of the sense of community and connection that has seemingly been lost in previous years. That it still exists, in however small a way, is heartwarming, particularly in the sense that it provides hope that the full extent of that community and connection might return in time.
A return to what many perceive to be the real Charlton, or even just a Charlton that supporters can connect with, possible once the required change at the club has occurred.
In the meantime, there are still figures that provide some sense of community, and offer some break from the isolation I feel. I can't say enough how appreciative I am of both Jackson, and every kind word I've received from fellow supporters.
An immediate fix? To think so, given the extent to which I'm suffering and the length of time that I've felt like this, would be incredibly naïve. In the days that have followed opening the package, I've returned to feeling incredibly low. A sense of guilt existing, as if feeling like this shows I'm not grateful, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
For Jackson's incredible gesture, his wonderful words, and the way in which the words of Charlton supporters have given me a sense of value in myself in the past few days has provided me with brief moments of wonderful and unrestricted joy.
The sort of moments of joy, however temporary, that I have rarely been able to experience over the previous three or four years.
I plan to have the shirt framed, and surround it with some of the photos I've taken of Jackson. The knee slides, the fist pumps, and the crowd-directed applause. The ones that show his use of the phrase "our club" is not misguided.
I really hope a quick look up to it when I'm feeling overwhelmed by how I feel, in those periods where I feel like I simply can't cope, is going to have some kind of impact on me. This really does mean so much to me.

Members of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs have released the full text of a bill that includes regulatory reform in the financial services industry. The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act affects mortgages, consumer credit, bank holding companies, consumer protections, and regulatory relief for community banks. Republicans on the Senate Banking Committee called the bill "right-sizes regulation for smaller financial institutions and includes important consumer protections for veterans, senior citizens and victims of fraud." A section-by-section analysis of the bill was also released.
Qualified Mortgages. The bill provides that mortgage loans originated and retained in portfolio by an insured depository institution or an insured credit union with less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets will be deemed qualified mortgages under the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) while maintaining consumer protections.
The bill also provides a tailored exemption from appraisal requirements under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 for certain mortgage loans with a balance of less than $400,000 if the originator is unable to find a state-certified or state-licensed appraiser to perform an appraisal after a good faith effort to do so.
Community Banks. The bill would require that the federal banking agencies establish a community bank leverage ratio of equity to average consolidated assets of not less than eight percent and not more than 10 percent. Banks with less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets who maintain tangible equity in an amount that exceeds the community bank leverage ratio will be deemed to be in compliance with capital and leverage requirements.
The bill would provide regulatory relief to small depository institutions that have originated less than 500 closed-end mortgage loans or less than 500 open-end lines of credit in each of the two preceding calendar years by exempting them from certain disclosure requirements under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act.
Consumer credit. Under the bill, credit bureaus would be required to include in the file of a consumer fraud alerts for at least a year under certain circumstances, provide consumers one free freeze alert and one free unfreeze alert per year, and provide further protections for minors.
Bank holding companies. The bill contains efforts to tailor regulations for bank holding companies. The bill raises the threshold for applying enhanced prudential standards from $50 billion to $250 billion. Bank holding companies with total consolidated assets between $50 billion and $100 billion will be exempt from enhanced prudential standards immediately, and bank holding companies with total consolidated assets between $100 billion and $250 billion will be exempt 18 months after the bill's effective date.
Required reports. The bill would require the Treasury Department to submit a report to Congress on the risks of cyber threats and the SEC to report on the risks and benefits of algorithmic trading.
Industry reaction. The Mortgage Bankers Association applauded the bill. David H. Stevens, MBA's President and CEO, commendedbill sponsor Rep. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) "for reaching a bipartisan compromise on regulatory relief legislation designed to lessen some burdens on lenders, allowing them to better serve their customers and consumers." MBA cited the inclusion of language amending the SAFE Act "to provide increased job mobility for loan originators," and language addressing concerns with PACE lending, HMDA, and the TILA/RESPA integrated disclosure.

It all begins with a promise by Patti Smith to her spiritual twin, photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, shortly before his death in 1989: she vowed to tell their story to the world. In 2010 she released the accomplished novel Just kids, which magically transports us to the New York of the 70s, sharing the intimacy of Patti and Robert. Just kids is not an autobiography in the sense that the author puts himself at the center of the story; it's more encompassing than that because Patti knows the human soul as few poets do, tracing rich portraits of the various characters in her book, highlighting Robert's tumultuous life, so entangled with Patti's that sometimes they seem to be the same entity.
In a few pages, Patti recounts her childhood, her traumatic teenage pregnancy, her departure for New York aged only 20, and the hand of destiny that makes her meet her future lover and best friend Robert Mapplethorpe. It's all about small, meaningful things that develop into a crescendo that culminates in sound and fury as they get more and more acquainted with New York underground art scene.
Then the chronology of the novel become blurred; the story is anecdotal, contrary to a self-centered writing. We do not even really have the impression that Patti Smith practices music so much.
The essential thing is her relationship with Robert Mapplethorpe, to whom she writes a kind of apology, so much her words are full of love, truly pure, from the moment the two friends stop being lovers.
is the story of two lost kids, armed with lucky charms, in full artistic research, who support each other because no one else will do it for them.
There's something of transcendental in sharing loneliness.
As I read the book I got that same feeling I had when watching Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris : but instead Ernst Hemingway, Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald, Gertrude Stein and other mythic characters from the Roaring Twenties I met Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin (in a brief, poignant portrait), Andy Warhol and members of his Factory, The Velvet Underground, Allen Ginsberg, William Burrough, Tom Verlaine and other inhabitants of the mythical Chelsea Hotel.
The novel is illustrated with period photos of this New York bohemian life. They are rather intimate and have mostly Patti Smith and/or Robert Mapplethorpe as the subjects because it is not a book that wants to play rock'n'roll.
Patti is one of the few who participated in the artistic world of the 70s without getting lost. She seems to be always hovering, and despite her intensity, she keeps an admirable control and sobriety all along her journey. She walks through flames and doesn't get burned. Far from praising deliquescent youth, her attitude remains very independent and critical, and this is so admirable!
Just kids is a romance full of grace, love, and wisdom, free from hatred or old bitterness. It does not seem like old memories; the story is alive and Patti didn't change at all. She's a consolidated spirit, she knows herself well enough.
Patti Smith produced a sincere, straightforward text, simple and poetic, just like her music. Her life is the embodiment of Arthur Rimbaud's poetry, the man with whom she lived her most faithful love story. Hunger for beauty like him, she succeeds in numbing misery without romanticism.
After reading Just kids I bet you'll spend three weeks listening to Horses in a loop, maybe you'll wake up on a bed at the Chelsea Hotel, in your dreams.
Bellow, an awesome photo montage of Frida Kahlo merged with Patti Smith (Fritti? Pada?) I've included it because the artist, Robert Toren, really knows his thing, and because, as I wrote in a former post, Frida Kahlo is another of my muses.
"Frida Kahlo Patti Smith" Photo montage homage by Robert Toren aka angrylambie 2012
🍒 Cherry on the cake!! 🍒
Patti Smith will be on a tour in Europe in August, find more information about the dates and tickets here .

12 Best Practices for Fighting eGift Card Fraud
It's easier than ever for fraudsters to obtain and use stolen credit card account information, with hacked accounts available on the Dark Web for just a few dollars. And that's just one avenue.
This credit card fraudster told a local TV station the nefarious means he'd use to get stolen account data:
"I had a bartender or a waitress or a waiter on my payroll -- somebody that I can pay a couple hundred dollars to every week. If they had what we call a 'Big Fish' -- somebody that comes in wearing fancy clothes, pulls up in a fancy car or looks like they have money -- you know when they pay their tab, the waitress or the bartender will take a quick picture of the front and back of their credit card."
"[Or] we could get an entire list of names and addresses and all that – [from] corrupt county workers, corrupt DMV workers, people that we paid off."
With the holidays coming up, eGift cards are likely to be prime targets of fraudsters. Why?
- Sales of eGift cards accelerate during the holidays, making it easier for fraudsters to blend in with the increased online transaction flow.
- Criminals can hide their true identity by buying and selling eGift cards online using stolen accounts and forged credentials.
- eGift cards are easy to convert to cash using secondary gift card resale marketplaces. In just a few hours, a fraudster can make thousands and thousands of dollars.
What can you do to thwart them?
Here are 12 best practices to protect against the double whammy of eGift card fraud.
(Whammy #1: chargebacks on the fraudulent transactions, and Whammy #2: having to honor the fraudulently purchased eGift cards when redeemed by consumers who bought them from secondary gift card resale marketplaces)
- MULTIPLE, ADVANCED SCREENING TECHNOLOGIES. A single tool like Device ID can be circumvented fairly easily by fraudsters. The more technologies you deploy, the harder it is for fraudsters to defeat fraud screening.
- MULTIPLE STAGES. Put checks in place before authorization (e.g., velocity checks), at authorization (e.g., risk scoring), and post-authorization (e.g., Dynamic Monitoring).
- REQUIRE ACCOUNT REGISTRATION. Create additional friction for fraudsters and force them to look elsewhere for easier targets.
- Block and/or detect bots by using CAPTCHA and other biometric solutions that reveal non-human conduct.
- TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION (TFA). Require confirmation by SMS text message, for example, to thwart criminals that have taken over accounts using stolen user names and passwords.
- ALL PAYMENT TYPES. Don't limit growth by using a fraud solution that makes it harder or riskier for you to enter new markets or channels.
- DEVICE NEUTRAL. Make sure you can apply the same multi-layered approach and multiple screening technologies no matter how or where a transaction originates.
- STANDARDIZED POLICIES. Publicize policies for customer refunds, chargebacks, and "stolen" eGift cards and train customer service reps on them.
- REAL-TIME DATA ORCHESTRATION. Get additional insight on borderline transactions by accessing third-party data sources.
- ADVANCED AI & MACHINE LEARNING TECHNOLOGY. Use the extraordinary power of technology and Big Data to better assess fraud threats in low-information scenarios like first-time fraud.
- EXPERIENCED HUMAN INTELLIGENCE. Make sure your fraud prevention solution is developed by a provider with deep and broad antifraud expertise in the eCommerce world.
- INTEGRATED, COMPREHENSIVE FRAUD PREVENTION SYSTEM. Avoid standalone or ad hoc tools that can leave you vulnerable in certain areas or that create isolated silos of data that restrict your ability to respond to fraud attacks in a comprehensive manner.
Get the full story on eGift card fraud. Download the eBook "eGift Card Fraud: The Gift That Keeps On Taking" and find out how you can boost sales this holiday season—including eGift cards—while protecting against the multiple fraud techniques that target this fast-growing segment in online sales.

Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, is right around the corner, and with it all the celebrations come some great meals. One of my favorite dishes served during this celebration is honey apple cake. A few years ago a friend of mine asked me if I could create a gluten-free version for her and a version of this recipe was the result.
When I heard about Arrowhead Mills® Heritage Blend Organic Gluten-Free All Purpose Flour – a gluten-free substitute for whole wheat flour – I thought this would be the prefect recipe to try it on, I love the nuttiness whole wheat flour imparts and it really melds well with apple. I was not disappointed. The flour is available exclusively at Whole Foods and a wonderful addition to any gluten-free pantry.
- 1/2 C honey
- 3/4 C sugar
- 1/2 C Earth's Best® unsweetened applesauce
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- 1 egg white, slightly beaten
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted and cooled
- 1 C Arrowhead Mills® Heritage Blend Organic Gluten-Free All Purpose Flour
- 1 C Arrowhead Mills® Organic Gluten-Free All Purpose Flour
- 1/4 tsp Hain® Sea Salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tsp cardamom
- 1/2 tsp ground anise
- 4 C crisp apples, peeled and diced
- Pre-heat oven to 350˚ and grease a bundt pan or two loaf pans.
- In a large bowl combine honey, sugar, eggs, applesauce, butter & vanilla. Combined until evenly mixed.
- In a separate bowl combine the dry ingredients and stir to distribute evenly.
- Incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry in two batches. Be sure to stir well in between.
- Finally, fold in the apples and mix to distribute them through out.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 minutes – 1 hour, until the cake is a light golden brown.
- Top the cake with dusting of powdered sugar and serve.
If you're unable to get your hands on the Heritage Blend you can substitute with the regular gluten-free all purpose flour.

were the Greeks, mostly -- at least they
were until Jason and the Argonauts
braved sailing through the Bosporus in
their search for the Golden Fleece. And
no one seems to know why everyone has
always called it "Black."
year, the Black Sea turned out to be a
major part of one of the most delicious
cruises my wife, Sara, and I have taken.
Our appetizers were Athens and Istanbul,
followed by a main course of Varna
(Bulgaria) and then Odessa and
Sevastopol in Ukraine. For dessert we
headed back through the Bosporus again,
down the coast of Turkey to Kusadasi
(Ephesus), over to the islands of Rhodes
and Cyprus, and finally crossed the
Mediterranean for a taste of Alexandria,
Egypt, before returning to Athens.

Europe from Asia. In
some places the
strait is less than
800 yards wide.
In 12
days we called at nine cities on three
continents -- Europe, Asia and Africa --
in the port-intensive cruise the Holland
America Line calls its "Black Sea &
Egyptian Adventure." The Rotterdam is
scheduled to repeat the itinerary twice
this the fall, and has also scheduled
similar cruises for 2008.
Rotterdam turned out to be one of the
best-decorated ships, to our taste. It
seems to be filled with museum-quality
art and antiques. There's an

Our evening meals in the
two-level dining room were excellent and
varied, and we saw no need to pay extra
for a dinner in the smaller "premium"
restaurant. Courses were sometimes slow
in coming, but we scored a table with
two other convivial couples and so were
not concerned. We took breakfasts and
lunches in the Lido Deck's

members were generally cheerful and
helpful. And we prefer Holland America's
automatic tipping policy over that of
some other ships. If you wish to add to
or reduce those amounts, you are free to
do so.
In any
case we were there more for the port
calls than the pot roast, and were
seldom disappointed. Of course, shore
excursions can mean a terrific extra
expense, so we chose judiciously, taking
tours in places we had not visited
before and exploring on our own in some
other locations. (See sidebar.)
Our only
disappointment in an otherwise great
cruise was a lack of ecological and
other lectures explaining the features
of the Black Sea and other areas. We
sailed past the scenes of historic
events such as the Trojan War and the
Battle of Gallipoli, with no mention
made of them. The ship offered a casino,
some entertaining stage shows and lots
of trivial pursuits like Bingo and Name
That Tune but was shy on academic
presentations. (Sara reported, however,
that a culinary class she took was

I HAD DONE some advance
reading on the Black Sea and learned
that a couple of millennia ago, it might
have been a relatively small, freshwater
lake, fed as it still is by several
European rivers like the Danube and the
Dnieper. Then, an earlier round of
global warming raised the world's sea

fame, are interested in looking for

preserving even wooden structures from
otherwise destructive microbes.
we didn't learn more of such things on
the journey, the visual riches were
fulfilling. Among my most vivid memories
is the afternoon we sailed through the
Bosporus, providing us with unusual and
otherwise unobtainable views. There we
were, surrounded by the bustling,
10-million-strong city of Istanbul with
its mosques, palaces and towers. Like
most of this cruise, it was a glorious

the ship, we partially recovered from
jet lag by overnighting at the Athens

an admirable view of the Acropolis.
It was our third visit,
so we enjoyed window-shopping and
people-watching at the Grand Bazaar.
First-timers, however, should consider a
tour that includes the Topkapi Palace,
the Blue Mosque and the former cathedral
named the Hagia Sophia.
Varna: We
took the ship's $42 Varna Highlights bus
tour, which included stopping at the
1886 Cathedral, with its singing
priests, and a stroll through the Roman
thermal bath ruins.

Our ship-sponsored city walking tour was
excellent. A special feature was the
famous Potemken Steps, scene of a 1905
massacre and depicted in the classic
Sergei Eisenstein silent film of the
tragedy. The Ukrainian city includes
some architectural masterpieces that
rival those of St. Petersburg.
An ancestor of mine
fought in the Crimean War, so we signed
up for the afternoon Battles of
Balaklava tour. It included viewing the
"Valley of Death," as described in
Tennyson's poem the "Charge of the Light
Brigade." We also explored the formerly
secret Soviet submarine repair tunnels
built under a hill, designed to survive
an atomic bomb.
For first-timers the
ruins of the ancient Roman colonial city
of Ephesus are a must. Some passengers
told us they saved money by taking a
taxi round trip to Ephesus instead of
joining a guided tour.
This Greek isle was also a repeat, but
this time, Sara enjoyed a bus tour to
see Lindos with its Temple of Athena.
On an earlier visit, we toured several
temples and the beach where Aphrodite
allegedly was born full grown from the
sea. This time, we explored the narrow
streets of Limassol and checked out its
Medieval Castle.
Most evidence of the
ancient capital lies underwater and is
therefore invisible. So as first-timers
to Egypt, our big splurge was a speedy
three-hour bus drive to Cairo to see the
Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. It was
followed by a floating lunch on the Nile
River. The price for the 12-hour
experience was nearly $300 each, but we
had no regrets.

familiarly as the

Pizza Power 2013 State of the Industry Report
Make plans for 2013 with PMQ's report on the pizza industry—both domestic and worldwide—along with a forecast for the coming year.
(page 3 of 4)
Additional Revenue Opportunities
In addition to taking advantage of trends and gleaning ideas from PMQ's annual reader census, take a look around your own neighborhood and cities nearby to see what's working in other restaurants. Don't limit yourself to examining pizzerias; you could discover a fantastic salad idea at a Brazilian restaurant, a clever way to hand stretch mozzarella tableside at a high-end Italian trattoria, or be inspired to create a new dessert after a visit to a local donut shop.
Be conscious of opportunities to raise awareness—and prices—on items that consumers are currently interested in as well. According to Mintel, drinks, breadsticks and salads are the most-ordered items after pizza and represent an easy opportunity to grow profits.
Additionally, a Mintel survey revealed that half of respondents limit the amount of pizza they eat because they feel it has too many calories or too much fat. If you aren't currently offering a thin-crust option, the addition of one might offer another revenue stream, as 38% of consumers surveyed said they prefer thin crust over pan-style (20%) or thick crust (19%). And, also on the topic of cutting calories, 40% of those surveyed by Mintel said they'd like to see more personal-size pizzas on the menu, helping to shave calories and provide a grab-and-go option.
Menu Labeling
The industry continues to wait for the widespread menu labeling laws that were outlined in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 to take effect. Meanwhile, though, big strides were made during 2012 in the fight against what many in the pizza industry see as an unfair law that would require all pizzerias with more than 20 locations to provide nutritional information that labels an entire pizza as one serving.
The American Pizza Community (APC), a coalition of some of the nation's largest pizza companies and suppliers, formed in January 2012, with one of its main goals being to advocate fair menu labeling practices. In July, the APC endorsed the Common Sense Nutrition Labeling Bill, saying it would allow small-business pizzeria owners to comply with federal menu labeling requirements using innovative approaches that strengthen consumer education and reduce excessive regulatory costs.
The bill, among other provisions, would amend the existing law as follows:
- Establishments that receive the majority of their orders from customers who order off-premise–such as those that offer a delivery service–would be allowed to provide calorie information on a remote-access menu instead of an expensive, and rarely seen, on-premise menu board.
- Establishments would have the option to provide calorie labeling for pizza by the slice, as opposed to whole-pizza labeling (the average consumer eats 2.1 slices).
- The bill allows for flexibility in providing calorie information for variable food items, such as pizzas, where a multitude of toppings, crusts and sauce create millions of ordering options. These options would include ranges, averages, individual component labeling of ingredients or labeling of standard menu offerings.
- The bill ensures that establishments acting in good faith are not penalized for inadvertent human error and other unavoidable variances in nutrient content disclosure.
Future Challenges
For a look at what's in store for the industry, IBISWorldwide's March 2012 report, "Pizza Restaurants in the U.S.," sheds some light on the next five years. Pizza restaurants will benefit as the economy continues to improve, unemployment rates decline and consumers return to spending money on eating out. However, while the industry will grow, pizza restaurants will continue to be affected by rising competition from other retail food outlets and consumers' preferences toward healthier foods.
Consumers are expected to become even more health-conscious, and many Americans will steer clear of fast-food establishments such as pizza delivery outlets. They will continue to crave products made from fresh and organic ingredients, resulting in an increased focus by pizzerias on using high-quality goods.
Pizza restaurants will continue to face competition from alternative retail outlets, such as grocery stores. Since Americans' schedules are becoming busier, being able to pick up a made-to-order pizza while shopping for groceries is extremely convenient. As a result, pizza restaurants, especially those that offer delivery, will have to come up with ways to draw consumers back to their shops.
The industry will be negatively affected by commodity prices. Through 2017, the price of milk and wheat is predicted to increase, causing operators' ingredients costs to rise. Some restaurants will increase prices to help with the rise in expenses, and others will cope by changing some of their menu offerings. Large chains that are able to buy in bulk will better manage the rise in expenses.
With revenue expanding, more restaurants will open up in the industry, at a rate of 3.1% per year. Employment numbers are projected to follow suit. In the five years to 2017, employment is predicted to increase an average of 2.3% per year, to 994,936 workers.

Breast Reconstruction – Getting your confidence back after breast cancer
- September 17, 2018

By Dr. Jeffrey M. Feiner
There are no more frightening words than to hear you have breast cancer, a disease that affects 1 in every 8 women. After you deal with the diagnosis, you are left thinking about not only how I will survive this, but when I survive this how will my life be changed. With advances in treatment and early detection, more women are surviving and leading full lives after treatment. Those diagnosed with breast cancer or with positive genetic testing for the BRCA gene who are planning to undergo surgery should know that the surgery for breast cancer can have a profound and lasting impact on a woman's identity and her sense of femininity. As a plastic surgeon, it is my goal to restore your physical appearance and sense of well-being after mastectomy or lumpectomy. Understanding the different types of surgical reconstruction can help women make the best decisions for their body and help long term with self-esteem and adjusting to life after cancer.
As plastic surgeons, we will guide you through the process, planning around your other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation. There are many different options available for breast reconstruction and it can easily become quite confusing. The two most common procedures involve creating a breast shape using an implant or using a woman's own fat. The best cosmetic results are achieved when the plastic surgeon and breast surgeon work together with the patient as a team. Reconstructive surgery can be started at the time of the mastectomy or it can be delayed until after your cancer treatment has been completed. In fact, there is no time limit on this and we will occasionally operate on women who have had their mastectomies done years earlier, but for one reason or another decided against or were not given the opportunity to have reconstruction at that time.
In some cases, we can do the entire reconstruction in one procedure at the same time as the mastectomy. In most cases, we place a temporary adjustable implant (tissue expander) to stretch the skin and create the shape of the breast in stages. Implants have improved so much over the last decade. The latest silicone implants are now filled more with a thick silicone gel like a gummy bear that makes them soft, but durable. They create a very nice shape with a natural feel and have better longevity.
The state of the art is now placing the implants above the muscle. This has become possible because of the improvement in the quality of the implants. The result is a very natural look, with less pain, and avoids the problems we used to see when we placed the implants under the muscle. Some of those women would have problems when they moved their arms because the muscle would cause the implant to shift and the breast skin to ripple. This is often quite noticeable and distressing. There are many women with this issue from prior surgery who can now be helped by changing the position of the implant and securing the muscle. These have been some of my happiest patients in recent years.
Women who don't want or may not be good candidates for implants may benefit from reconstruction utilizing their own fat. This fat is often removed from the lower belly and transplanted to the chest to create the breast. This has the added benefit of eliminating unwanted excess belly skin and fat to create a very natural breast shape. This is not typically done by all plastic surgeons and is only offered at specialized centers. It is called the DIEP (deep inferior epigastric artery perforator) flap procedure and has the added benefit of leaving the abdominal muscles intact.
Women who have had a lumpectomy and radiation also have several options for reconstruction to correct differences in breast shape or symmetry. Many women are often unaware that these procedures even exist and are covered by insurance. We can do liposuction and inject fat into areas that have shrunken from radiation. Sometimes we may lift or make the opposite breast smaller to try to achieve better symmetry. A wide variety of techniques exist to improve the final cosmetic result.
With such a wide and complex range of surgical options for women undergoing breast cancer treatment, it is important to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss your individual situation and to develop a surgical plan that is individually customized. I am happy to answer questions or to arrange a consultation. E-mails can be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com

Here's the thing about young people: they only exist in relation to how old you are. When you're ten years old, you can look at someone who is six and get all caught up in the nostalgia of what life was like four years ago for you. This actually has nothing to do with the kid you're looking at; they have a whole different past and future, and some of the things that changed for you between those ages might not change for them at all. Besides that, they may be way smarter or dumber than you; all kinds of things come into play when we're talking about personal development, and time is among the least of them.
When I first heard it, I was immediately exasperated with this phrase: youth is wasted on the young, indeed. Just a few years of experience taught me that plenty of kids make the most out of their lives, and plenty of others don't. Usually these same kids keep at it, as they get older; but some people peak in high school, and it's all downhill from there. Youth wasn't wasted on them, I don't think; if anything, adulthood is wasted on them. I met plenty of people when I was in my twenties who wished for the good old days of childhood. As a kid who couldn't wait to grow up, I was super happy to have my life to myself. That has never changed, and I would argue that neither stage of life has been wasted on me.
As you can guess, I am not a big fan of this saying. It may be true, in many instances; but the exception disproves the rule, when it comes to things as important as individual lifetimes. The saying may come from the fact that we tend to progress along pretty similar timelines in modern society. Yet at the same time, it is the outliers that define each generation in the long term; and to revisit my earlier point, a ninety year old dude might look at someone who is only sixty and spout this same useless phrase with about as much meaning as an adult looking at a child.
Yeah, this one is kind of a bunch of crap.
I'll just come right out and say it.
When I was barely an adult, I worked with guys who were in their thirties and forties and fifties. I still do, in fact. All this time later, one thing hasn't changed. Back then, the guys in their thirties said it would be hard to keep the weight off when I got to their age, and the guys in their forties told me I should enjoy my abundant energy while I still had it. They all told me my youth was wasted on me, and I argued every time they did. Now that I'm in my forties, I just laugh at the fifty-something guy when he tries to tell me what lies ahead for me. I remember what his type said, back when I was twenty and they were thirty.
I was always pretty sure life was actually going to get easier, as I got older; I just needed to play my cards right. Just as childhood is a time to collect wounds, early adulthood is a time to either heal them or get used to hurting. Once we become accustomed to making ourselves whole, no matter what befalls us, new experiences stop being something to fear. We may need to make adjustments as we get older, and work out hard enough to fool our bodies into thinking we're not getting older; but this work is pretty cake, when compared to the effort required to build a functioning identity in the modern world.
Back in the day, I used to party pretty hard. Now, I have it down to a science. I know just how much scotch I can have and not feel crappy the next day, and I keep track no matter how buzzed I get. In those early days, I was a bit out of control from one point of view; but from another, I was constantly being reigned in by my own limitations. Now I pop out of bed pretty early in the morning, even if I got nicely toasted the night before; back then, I used to be late for work on a regular basis. When I did show up, I was pretty useless more often than not. I can't say whether or not my limitations changed; but I can say I've learned to live within them with a lot more freedom as time has gone by.
The truth is, a lot of people seem to settle for something other than what they really want. Some guys complain about how they can't get into their wives, and then will ogle every girl that walks by. They do the same with their jobs, wishing they were somewhere else while doing just enough to get by at the profession they actually chose for themselves. I think this is where this saying comes from; although they were probably much the same when they were younger, it can be easier to look back fondly than to forge ahead with determination.
Life is as difficult as we make it, when it comes right down to it; but I could see fairly early on that if I took on some hard stuff right out of the gate, I could make sure it got easier later. It did, too; and I have trouble feeling sympathy for the people who have had decades to learn some basic life lessons and have chosen to eschew that education. Some people might have true tragedies alter their paths forever; but most folks don't, and that's who this discussion is about.
Anyone who thinks life is easier when you're younger either got broken by extreme circumstances or isn't doing it right. The challenges may get harder; but that's because checkers gets boring after awhile, and the spirit within longs to start over at a more difficult and complicated game. Conveniently enough, chess has been waiting there the whole time; you just have to learn it. What we may lose in recovery time is more than offset by applying a lifetime's learning of time saving techniques, and very few of us would willingly go back to the beginning if we couldn't take the lessons we've learned along with us.
Maybe every moment we don't spend pursuing our passion is really the wasted time, and that means I'm as guilty of this sin as anyone. For years, I knew what I wanted to do and didn't do it; even now, I am seldom happy with the amount of writing I get done on any given day. The lessons I learned by letting so much time pass were important to my writing process today, but that doesn't mean I don't ever wonder what I would have written back then if I had begun to structure things this way earlier.
So…perhaps youth is wasted on the young, and perhaps it isn't. Maybe this is another thing we should look at on a case by case basis, along with most of the things we tend to generalize. Also, we might do well to remember that original point: unless you're the oldest person in the world, you're young to someone else. If you survive to see tomorrow, you of today will be a younger you when you look back on it for all the rest of your days. Age can't really be both a state of mind and a number on your driver's license at the same time; but it's always a good idea to make the most of every moment, no matter how old you are.
Yeah, I think that about wraps it up.
Now, if you'll excuse me…I have some television to watch.
Thanks for reading!
All the best,

Clear Braces
Today's orthodontic aligners are designed to be comfortable and hygienic, and are often more economical than traditional braces. With different case complexities requiring varying treatments, we offer Invisalign® (five different levels), Simpli5, and 3 Tray Red White & Blue®. Clear braces are worn day and night, and the only thing anyone will notice is your stunning smile.
A Clear Choice
Many adults prefer a clear aligner system because they are virtually invisible on their teeth. Teens are also choosing to go with clear braces over traditional metal braces. According to the Invisalign Teen Confidence survey, 92% of teens feel that wearing metal braces will keep them from fitting in with their peers. Clear braces give patients the beautiful smiles they always wanted without ever having the look of braces.
Easy Brushing and Flossing
Another benefit of a clear aligner system is that they are easily removed for cleaning, reducing cavities and plaque build-up. Oral health is further enhanced because it's convenient for wearers to be able to remove their teeth aligners for brief periods of time to eat or drink.
Overall, clear braces are much more comfortable than metal braces. With conventional metal braces, wires and metal can sometimes become painful and even puncture the inside of the mouth and gums. Aligner systems do not have sharp edges or wires and are always smooth and comfortable.
If you are interested in learning more about clear braces, please make a consultation appointment with our office. We look forward to talking with you about creating your perfect smile without the discomfort, tooth decay, and visual appearance associated with traditional braces.
Invisalign® straightens your teeth using a custom-made series of aligners created for you and only you.
All-new Simpli5 is your fast and simple aligner system for minor-to-intermediate anterior crowding or spacing.
3 tray red/white/blue
The Red White & Blue® orthodontic system is a three-appliance product that's used to treat just one dental arch.
