On Kids and Sports
a manifesto
Don't: Use adult sports as models for organizing youth sports.
Do: Encourage children to play informal games, and facilitate informal games by providing children with time, safe spaces, and various indirect forms of guidance.
Don't: Use coaches of elite adult teams as models for organizing your own coaching. Bela Karolyi and Bobby Knight may be heroes to many for their ability to keep young athletes totally dependent and dedicated, but they are not good models for how to socialize children when it comes to anything that I would call positive character development.
Do: Use child-oriented teaching methods grounded in the realization that children are not little adults, and should not be treated as such.
Don't: Use an "Obedience Model" of coaching – based on:
- Providing constant and pervasive supervision
- Using established and non-negotiable rules for athletes on and off the field
- The use of sanctions to produce compliance with rules
- Encouraging athletes to look to authority figures for approval
- Emphasizing the consequences of failure to obey and follow rules
Do: Use a "Responsibility Model" of coaching – based on:
- Providing information for decision-making
- Enabling athletes to develop individual and team rules for on and off field
- Focusing on consequences of decisions and learning from mistakes
- Encouraging athletes to be responsible for their decisions
- Emphasizing an awareness of how decisions impact others and the overall context
Don't: Make underage children sign contracts committing themselves to long-term goals. Remember, it takes informed consent to sign a contract, and children cannot give informed consent no matter how talented they are in a sport!
Do: Help children take control of their own lives so they will be able to set realistic goals when they are ready to do so.
Don't: Use dominance over others as the measure of excellence.
Do: Use personal progress in the development of physical competence as an indicator of excellence. The goal should be to create achievement motivation, not the desire to feel compelled to beat others to feel good about self.
Don't: Emphasize external rewards as a source of motivation.
Do: Emphasize internal rewards associated with participation and competence as a source of motivation. Many young people today have never developed a deep love for the sports they play apart from all the perks that come with them. Such love is grounded in joy combined with a sense of personal achievement.

Purpose: Provide discovery, insight, and enrichment to a variety of mathematical concepts, many of which map directly to 5th Grade Standards.
|Music and Mathematics
|Introduction to Base 2
|Interactive Magic Squares
|Add & Sub Decimals
|Using Magic Squares
|Perimeter vs. Area
|Surface Area vs. Volume
|Strategy Games
The primary purpose of this activity is to provide students with a basic understanding of how mathematics plays a major role in music - both in note pitch and note duration. The 2500 year history of music dates back to the Greek philosophers known as the Pythagoreans - back when music was a discipline within mathematics. Students will understand and experience what that early Greek society knew: "Harmonious sounds are given off by strings whose lengths are to each other as the ratios of whole numbers [i.e., fractions]". The relationship of one note to another can be demonstrated through fraction multiplication (e.g., the octave above any note is 1/2 its length and twice the frequency).
The first lesson begins with an explanation that fractions are used in both note duration and note pitch. The notes and their durations are presented as fractional parts of a whole note. Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star is examined to introduce the rudimentary components of a sheet of music: time signature, one measure. The students are then challenged to fill in the missing note of several measures of Oh Susanna by adding up the durations of the other notes in each measure.
To visualize the "harmonious sounds given off by strings whose lengths are to each other as the ratios of whole numbers" students shade in the appropriate fractional portion of a whole representing middle C.
The lesson concludes with students breaking up into two groups to master the classic Row, Row, Row Your Boat. Each note has an associated tube. The goal is to assemble the notes in the correct order and successfully play the tune.
The second lesson focuses on how the notes are related to each other in pitch (as ratios of whole numbers). The fractional part of each note is multipled by the length of the middle C tube, to produce the length of each successive tube to play a C Major Scale.
The remainder of the session is dedicated to playing Camptown Races. The song is broken up into 5 parts. Partial instruments are used to play each of the five parts. It becomes a battle of the bands as up to three groups strive for victory.

The primary purpose of this activity is to set the stage for the activity Using Magic Squares (A-016). This activity introduces many clever techniques for generating Magic Squares of different sizes. Magic Squares have intrigued mathematicians and non-mathematicians for centuries. Students share in the excitement as they realize they can generate non-trivial Magic Squares with the tools presented here.
For centuries, the construction and examination of Magic Squares have occupied people's time of all levels of mathematical talent. Ben Franklin and the German painter Albrecht Dürer (1500s) spent countless hours developing their own techniques of construction.
This activity serves as a motivation for many follow up activities for 5th grade and beyond. In particular, Magic Squares can be constructed using fractions, decimals, and negative numbers which are the focus of activity Using Magic Squares (A-016).
Using an interactive approach, students are provided a Magic Squares packet that guides the activity through a variety of strategies for constructing Magic Squares. Additional patterns and properties are highlighted for each Magic Square following construction.

The focus of this activity is to provide practice in adding and subtracting fractions, decimals, and negative numbers. This activity can be tailored to meet the needs of any 5th grade class. Separate worksheets are available for varying levels of each topic. For example, an entire session can be devoted to working strictly with decimals. On the other hand, the activity can be extended to work with multiplication of fractions or decimals.
Magic Squares can be used to motivate students to practice addition and subtraction of fractions, decimals, and negative numbers. Engaging the students into the mysteries of Magic Squares is best accomplished through the recreational activity Interactive Magic Squares (A-075), which provides the necessary tools for constructing Magic Square needed for this activity.
Using Magic Squares is a very versatile activity. It can focus on a single topic (e.g., addition of fractions), or it can encompass multiple topics. It is even possible for this activity to span multiple days. There are a few rules that must be followed to successfully generate a Magic Square that sums to the same value for each of its rows, columns, and diagonals. First, a starting number is chosen (it need not be "1"). Second, an increment needs to be decided upon (i.e., the difference between successive values). For example, one could generate values for a Magic Square by choosing 0.1 as a starting value with an increment of 1.1. This would generate the 9 values: 0.1, 1.2, 2.3, 3.4, 4.5, 5.6, 6.7, 7.8, and 8.9. This set of numbers can be used to generate a Magic Square with sum = 13.5.
For more advanced lessons, a formula can be introduced to predict the sum before the magic square is generated, providing an intriguing setting for 5th grade Algebra and Functions standards. It is also possible to construct Magic Squares with all rows, columns, and diagonals multiplying to a common value.

This activity provides practice in computing the perimeter and area of squares and rectangles. Equally important, it provides insight in how area and perimeter are interrelated. In particular, how is area affected when a rectangle is transformed into another rectangle maintaining the same perimeter? What happens when the roles are reversed? Most people's intuition is challenged as these questions are posed. The relationships can even be graphed to organize the results. This session is a great example of why we need mathematics.
Perimeter vs. Area is a recreational look at how area and perimeter are intertwined. What happens to the area when a rectangle is transformed into other rectangles, maintaining the same perimeter each time? What does your intuition say? What does mathematics say? What happens when the roles of perimeter and area are reversed? These are the questions that are explored and answered in this activity.
After the students' predictions have been tallied, the diagrams are examined using the definitions of perimeter and area along with a mathematical interpretation of the transformations. The intuition of students is aided by a manipulative rectangle that demonstrates simple transformations without the need to perform any computations. A combination of worksheets and graph paper allow students to experiment with various transformations. Students can even organize their findings by graphing each transformation as the perimeter or area is held constant. Which rectangle provides the greatest area for a fixed perimeter?
The honeycomb illustration suggests that bees know something about area and perimeter. Do bees really use a minimum amount of wax in creating the storage for honey, pollen, and their young?

This activity provides a challenge to one's intuition. Students learn that two figures with the same surface area don't necessarily have the same volume. In the process, they get lots of practice computing surface area and volume of rectangular prisms.
The opener for this activity challenges the students to decide whether or not the volume changes when two identical sheets are rolled: one lenghtwise and the other widthwise (see the mini-slideshow above). Students will not do any calculations with the cylinders, but they will see what happens when one of them is filled with split peas and poured into the other one.
The above demonstration serves as a motivation for the students to experiment with rectangular prisms. Students will fold cardstock lengthwise and widthwise to form two different regular prisms with identical surface area. The surface area can be computed two ways: compute the surface area of the four sides of the rectangular prism or finding the area of the cardstock sheet. The volumes of both rectangular prisms are then computed. Are they the same?
For more in-depth analysis, students can ponder these questions:

The primary purpose of this activity is to re-enforce the concepts of Base 10 by providing students with an opportunity to experience another number system: Base 2 or Binary - the language of computers. One of the best ways to understand Base 10 is to see the correlations with other bases.
This activity begins with two magic tricks:
Base 10 is reviewed using the worksheet "Defining Base 10" (see below). The primary components are emphasized: digits, place value, and basic operations.
Requiring fast action responses, students are challenged to write the successor of a set of called out numbers as well as the predecessor of another set. There are a few
that might catch them off guard.
Next, students are introduced to Napier's Chessboard Calculator (click animation at the right). It is a device for introducing Base 2, or Binary, to students. The device can be used to show how to convert Base 10 numbers to Base 2, count by adding 1 to existing numbers and perform the basic operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Twenty such devises are available for student use, allowing students to discover Base 2 in pairs. A second worksheet, "Defining Base 2", will facilitate the instruction.
The animation at the right helps to illustrates further the major concepts encapsulated in the Base 2 number system: place values double as you move to the left and halve as you move to the right, any whole number can be represented as the sum of a subset of the Base 2 Place Values (e.g., 13 = 8 + 4 + 1) and that representation is unique.
With a basic understanding of Base 2, the final step provides students with laminated devices that they manipulate to determine the number chosen by the magician. There are a few key points to highlight in closing:

Hen it shows the size of cheekpads (small, medium, large, XL, etc) is that for the size helmet or the thickness of the pads that will fit all helmets..,for people who have..."big jaws" and need a thinner cheek pad so the helmet won't rip our ears off when we try to get it on our heads?
Best Answer:AFX FX 100 shell sizes are XS-M and L-XXL. As long as the cheek pads are for the same shell of the helmet they are interchangeable. For example, Meduim cheek pads will go into a XS helmet. Medium Cheek pads will not fit into the XL helmet. You can change the cheek pads as long as you order within the sheel size of you helmet.

A neglected, overgrown, old apple tree does have charm, its gnarled, elbowed branches seemingly reaching out for a hug. The fruits, unfortunately, are more often than not too small, too high and too pest-ridden.
February and March are the months to sow carrot seed for early summer harvest. Jazz up your summer palate with purple, white and orange carrots. Americans are most familiar with the long, orange, tapered carrot.
Organic and synthetic fertilizers are the most common way to add nutrients to the soil, but animal manure is good too, if you can find and transport it.
The time to harvest overwintered carrots is now.

Divided Lebanese Neighborhood Finds Peace in Kitchen
Though it was not easy at first, cooking together has helped women from the
Bab Al-Tebbeneh and Jabal Mohsen bond, December 2014. (J. Owens / VOA)
Though it was not easy at first, cooking together has helped women from the
Bab Al-Tebbeneh and Jabal Mohsen bond, December 2014. (J. Owens / VOA)
With the collaboration of Tawlet's main man, Kamal Mouzawak, I was able to experience something many only dream of in Lebanon. An early Christmas I call it, when Kamal generously gathered around 15 women to come cook and share their experience and culture around one big table. It was peaceful – cooking was the only language and Lebanon was the only cause. How often does this happen… or how often would you get to experience this peaceful feeling in Lebanon…
In this modern life, Most of us rarely have time to pick fresh fruits, vegetables or to dine in any a
restaurant that provides good taste and healthy food at the same time. Souk El Tayeb started their
initiative to change that concept to all Lebanese beauties.
'Atayeb cheghel el beit' célèbre la diversité, la richesse
et les traditions culinaires des travailleuses domestiques
migrantes au Liban venues de l'Asie et de l'Afrique.
[…] Finally, we entered the kitchen. I was seriously impressed with the setup that was professionally
done, spacious, clean and well laid out. No messing around here. The kitchen was created in
partnership with Souk El Tayeb, specifically for this class, by interior design students, from both
Bab El Tabbenah and Jabal Mehson, with the complete support of Ruwwad through programs
and grants.
Tawlet is an amazing place with a great concept behind it. A branch of Souk el Tayeb, a market where small-scale
farmers from every region of Lebanon come together to sell their produce, Tawlet offers typical Lebanese food made
with fresh ingredients brought by the farmers themselves, served as a buffet. But in addition to the high-quality food,
Tawlet's most characteristic feature is that every day, a different guest chef from a different village in Lebanon cooks
a lunch based on the culinary delicacies of his or her area, making Tawlet the venue to sample Lebanese cuisine in all
its regional variations. At Tawlet, food identifies with culture – and for those who really want to get in touch with
Lebanon's culinary culture, the restaurant also offers cooking classes.
Lebanese restauranteur Kamal Mouzawak is something of a local hero. Not only is he
single-handedly reshaping the Beirut food scene with is ever-evolving experimental farmers'
market project Souk El Tayeb, but his string of Tawlet restaurants that stem from it (the fourth of
which opened in Bkassine, 70km south of the capital, last month) aim to reconcile this often
divided nation and support the huge influx of Syrian refugees that have poured into the country
as a result of the neighbouring civil war.
The true taste of Lebanon: Tawlet
The true taste of Lebanon: Tawlet
The true taste of Lebanon: Tawlet
As soon as you walk in to Tawlet, you feel like you are back in the country about to enjoy some real
home cooking. Outside is a little patio surrounded by foliage where a couple of women were enjoying
an espresso and a cigarette when we arrived.

Angel stories presented by Erica Sofrina, Motivational Speaker, Teacher and Author.
In this beautiful and moving Animal Angel story, Care2 member Tumeria Langlois writes about a very special friendship she had with a calf named Blitz.
A Very Special Friendship by Tumeria Langlois
I was fortunate enough to have a very wonderful relationship with an animal that most people only see from a distance.
If more people had the opportunity to connect with farm animals, I think they would realize that there really is no difference between different species in their capacity to love us.
Some of my fondest childhood memories were those spent at my cousin's dairy farm. He ran an old fashion farm where the cows were allowed to graze in large, open fields. I was fond of the baby calves and actually became close friends with one of them. I named her Blitz because she had a lightning shaped blaze down her nose. Being only 10 years old, my cousin humorously told me that Blitz was my calf, but that she would have to live on the farm with him.
I would visit Blitz every week. Our bond soon became very strong. Blitz was very curious by nature and would manage to chew through the ropes that kept her confined against the wall of the barn. Several times, when I would go to visit her, I would find her roaming around inside the barn. When my cousin resorted to using a leather collar and chains to keep her restrained, I would undo the latch and take her for walks around the barn myself.

WebRTC has had a real tough three or four years, and so have those working with it. Only a few short years ago, the development world were excited about WebRTC and proclaiming how awesome it was. You might have played with the technology a couple of years ago, only to find the extra infrastructure requirements were painful to implement and poorly documented. This probably left a bitter taste in your mouth, especially when things went wrong.

Too often with compelling new technologies market participants become overly enamored with that attractiveness of the technology and neglect underlying business drivers. This tendency, what some call the "newest shiny object syndrome," is understandable given that virtually all of us are heavily engaged in technology. But it is also mistaken.

Two popular classes of technologies that nicely handle the Big Data analytics for Internet of Things are Apache Hadoop and NoSQL.

LINCOLN - Robert Fortunati, 79, passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 16, 2012. Bob was born Roberto Guglielmo Fortunati, in Providence, to the late Fabio and Annuziata (DiSantis) Fortunati. Starting early in the tile business, he left for the US Army as a young man and was stationed in Germany. Once returning, he soon founded Crest Distributors, Inc., established in Central Falls, his most successful endeavor.
Bob was in the tile business for over 45 years. He enjoyed running his tile company through the years as well as many other entrepreneurial adventures. During his time he traveled extensively through Europe on business trips. He worked tirelessly at his businesses and his work ethic was beyond compare, later founding Bells Farms Restaurant of Smithfield as well as Sayles Mill Realty.
He had a true passion for family traditions, and was always a giving man to friends and family. One of his strong passions was for cooking, which was passed down from his mother. Bob was a man of strong and unwavering opinion; a spirited character who will be missed by all who knew him.
He is survived by his wife, Matilda "Tillie" (Lapham) Fortunati; his daughter, Robin Young and her husband Jason of So. Attleboro; two grandchildren, Jason David "JD" and Bailey M. Young both of So. Attleboro; four siblings, Mary Ranallo of No. Kingston, Albert Fortunati of No. Providence, Joseph Fortunati of No. Smithfield and Rose Boisse of So. Attleboro and many nieces and nephews. He was the brother of the late Catherine Christopher and Phillip Fortunati.
His funeral will be held Friday at 10 a.m. from WILLIAM W. TRIPP Funeral Home, 1008 Newport Ave., Pawtucket, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 11 a.m. in St. Teresa Church, 358 Newport Ave., Pawtucket. Interment with Military Honors will follow at Mt. St. Mary Cemetery. VISITATION will be Thursday from 5 to 8 p.m. If desired, gifts in Bob's memory to the American Cancer Society, P.O. Box 9376, Framingham, MA 01701-9376 will be appreciated. For online condolences:

When the 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C goes on sale in this summer in 86 dealerships across the U.S. and Canada, it'll start at $69,695, including a hefty $1,295 destination fee. That price applies to the limited Launch Edition model, which goes on sale first and is limited to a serialized run of 500 models. The standard 4C coupe will follow this fall and start at $55,195 including destination.
The mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive 4C is powered by an all-aluminum 237-horsepower, turbocharged 1.75-liter direct-injection four-cylinder engine and a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Alfa pegs the 4C's zero-to-60-mph time in the mid-4-second range and says the coupe has a top speed of 160 mph.
Inside, the curvaceous coupe has room for two and a bare-bones cabin; the Launch Edition model adds black microfiber sport seats, more leather trim, red or white interior accent stitching and a unique "Launch Edition" plaque. Other Launch Edition upgrades include a race-tuned suspension, performance-tuned shocks and specific exhaust.

For the second part of the National Open 470 regatta it was a glorious day today on Lake Garda, Trentino. The first race (the fourth brought in the discard), was held with the wind from the north while in the afternoon the ora picked up to 8-9 m/sec. giving the 34 crews from 4 continents assembled at Fraglia Vela Riva the conditions for an enjoyable competition.

After the fourth race, and helped by the discard, the Brazilian crew of Mendes-Thiesen took the lead which they held on to right to the end with two seconds, two thirds , fifth and a sixteenth. Italians Falcetelli-Bernard took second place only two points behind, (today's results 5-4-8). Third place went to the Australian crew of Alexander and Patrick Conway who didn't start in the first race this morning but made up for it later with a third and first. Asenathi-Hudson of South Africa were fourth. They came first in the penultimate race. Capurro-Puppo of Italy were fifth. They had started badly yesterday but recuperated on the second day with a 1-2-4.
Compliments for the excellent work done by the regatta committee and the on water staff coordinated by Fausto Maroni who have hardly had a break since the season started with the Optimist Meeting at Easter.

A good place to stay with full hookup sites. The site was fairly level and was able to level up with no difficulty. The hookups were adequate and there is a Verizon tower on the grounds. A great place to camp when the other campgrounds in Winterset are full. There is a sign stating that the campground is closed July 6-20 for the county fair. That date would vary some year to year. We definitely would stay here again. - Kent and Margaret

Arriving at the park's main North entrance, we pulled through the rock tunnel with ease. NOTE 12-1/2' height limit here, taller RVs should use the 4 mile gravel road entrance on the park's East side.
We met up with a friend of ours, and stayed in the shady back-in spots. Another friend opted to stay in the wide open full-sun campground loop that has pull-through concrete pads and good satellite reception. All the campground roads are gravel. Our almost-level gravel site was well spaced with a picnic table. The 30 amp electricity was nice for running our air conditioner. The water spigots are located between sites and have a "Y" for both trailers to use at the same time. We did have afternoon sun on our patio side, while sites across the road had morning sun on their doors. A storm the day before left the sites covered with small branches, which we used as kindling for our campfire.
The park's ford was washed out from the rain, so we did not wade or play in the water. The other roads were open for walking.
Verizon MiFi worked some times during the day - OK by me.
We will return. - AluminumCloud

I really wanted to stay at this park but was concerned about driving under the tunnel so we decided not go go here. However, we parked at a nearby campground and drove over to this park. Our 5th wheel would not fit under the tunnel to the entrance but there was another entrance however you would need directions to get there. You would also need to drive over a ford so if there was a lot of rain that entrance would probably not work. My suggestion is to call first before coming here. The park was very wooded and looked like there was a lot to do. - sherp108

For the price this Park is in our top 20 campgrounds of 137 visited within the last three years. The Park from reservation to actual stay was pleasant, quiet and soothing. The Park sits atop a lovely Ridge "Devils Backbone" approx. 1000+ feet. Although there are not many amenities here, the park is very clean, has large sites and is sound. The Park, Camp Hosts couples were amazingly friendly and accommodating. This park in not far from the town of Winterset, Iowa and birthplace Museum of John Wayne. Additionally the home county of the "Madison County Bridges" which is not far off I-80. We can assure you, your stay here will be most relaxing and comforting. We stayed for 4 days in our 5th Wheel. WE WILL RETURN HERE someday in passing thru the area for sure. Thank you Pammel Park, IA. - jtl

This city park campground is a real gem; the city park service that administers this campground is a real credit to their profession. As city campgrounds go, this one should be rated an 11! The full hookups were adequate; the water faucet is placed between two spaces so make sure you come here with more than a 25 foot fresh water hose. The only improvements that could make the park absolutely perfect would be to add more gravel to areas that can become muddy when heavy rains come and the park should add co-mingled recycling. You really do need to call ahead if you wish to stay on a weekend or holiday during the prime spring and summer season. There are lots of things to see and do in the area; so, plan to stay a while if you can. We would definitely stay here again. - Kent and Margaret

This city park is very clean, well-maintained, and quiet. The gravel road loops around to all the gravel back-in sites. Sites are rather wide, as the trailers are stagger-parked on each side of the loop. Restrooms were clean with 2 shower stalls that were spotless. As the county seat of Madison County, the town's small businesses are alive and well - many within a longer walk around the town square. Right at the park is a fun corn maze, and a 1-mile trail to historic stone Clark Tower. Good Verizon phone and MiFi connections. - AluminumCloud
Aug 2014 - $19.00
This park was one of my favorites. We got site 5 which had a nice shade tree, water, sewer, and 50 amp. Firewood at $2 for a large bundle. Verizon phone and hot spot worked great. Each site is a gravel pad for your RV with a large grassy area complete with picnic table. We camped during the week so we were able to get a nice spot. If coming on a weekend you would need to make a reservation due to many spots were already reserved for the weekend. Town park is right next to the campground and we walked around the park, visited the maze and drove up to Clark Tower. We were able to maneuver our dually truck up the one way road. Town is within walking distance. - sherp108

How funny, I started a thread to find out if it was ok to use the bubbling thick gell my cashew soak water became... Now if I had only been here first!!! LOL

1 cup water, make sure it is filtered
1 cup cashews
1) There is really no need to soak cashews because they loose a lot of their flavor if you do. Place cashews in a coffe ginder and process them into a powder.
2)Pour the cup of water into a blender and add the cashew powder. Blend until creamy.
3)Place cashew mixture into a glass jar, and cover mouth of jar with a towel of napkin.
4)Place the jar in a warm area or fill a large bowl with warm water and place it in there.
5) Check yogurt after 5 hrs. If a thick layer of curd has formed on top and a layer of whey at the bottom, then transfer it to the fridge. You may eat eat after it has been in the fridge for at least an hour. To eat just simply stir until the whey and curd have mixed.
This a tart and tasty yogurt. It kind of tatse like a greek yogurt that I use to eat when I was little. But the good part about this one is that it does not make you bloated looking :)

Cashew Yogurt... isnt' life good!!!
mine was a little runny, too (maybe i didn't leave it in a warm enough spot?), but it yummy all the same. i'd added a little bit of lemon juice to give it a bit of tanginess.
Just cashews and water? Would it be tasty if I added some blended fruit to it for flavor?
This is amazing. THANK YOU! I've been searching for a raw yogurt recipe that was this easy. I didn't notice the "separation," but I could smell it and when I tried it I tasted it. I mixed it with fresh pureed/chopped peaches. YUM! And one person told me it tasted like sour cream, sooo I got two recipes in one.
I did everything the recipe said (It wasn't that much!) yet it came out really runny. Is there something different I should have done? I just put it in the fridge to try and harden it some...
should the warm area be dark?
Yes very subtle separation. But you can also gently dip your ppon and tatse it to see if it is tart enough.
I tried this out and am wondering if I did something awry. I didn't notice an obvious separation of curd at the top. Is it subtle?
I finally got around to trying this. It was so easy. It turned out a little runnier than Greek yogurt, but it was definitely reminiscent of the flavor. It was great with sliced fresh fruit and raw granola. I think I'll be making this all the time. Thanks again!
Alriiight, this is the first recipe I've tried from this site. I just set the connoction aside and feel great becuase I don't think I can mess this up.no heat in recipes=no chance for me to burn my food into inexistence.
Thank you so much for this recipe. It is the simplest version I've seen. I'll have to try it asap.

As head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Thomas Frieden oversees an agency with the sprawling mission of reining in diseases in the United States and across the globe. From fighting food-borne illness outbreaks and influenza epidemics to educating people about the risks of obesity and smoking, the CDC's work touches every corner of public health.
Given that broad range of responsibilities, we asked Frieden about what he considers the top public health priorities for 2014. Below are five areas he said deserve special attention, and why each is important. His comments have been edited for length:
1. Increasing human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccinations.
The bottom line here — this is an anti-cancer vaccine. Usually, when we introduce a new vaccine, we expect the uptake will be gradual and will increase by about 10 percent per year. HPV has stalled. We're at 30 percent, and it didn't increase at all last year. The country of Rwanda is at 85 percent. If we were at 85 percent, then 4,400 girls alive today would not get cervical cancer in their lifetimes. But because we're not, they will.
2. Fighting the growing problem of antibiotic resistance, which kills an estimated 23,000 Americans each year.
We talk about the antibiotic era and the pre-antibiotic era. But if we're not careful, we're soon going to be in a post-antibiotic era. There are now organisms out there that are resistant, potentially, to all the drugs that we have. And they're spreading. We need to scale up the work that we're doing at CDC to support doctors and hospitals to have more rational and more effective strategies for treating patients, so that we can treat infections that could be fatal but don't waste the antibiotics that we need to preserve for ourselves, our kids and grandkids.
There's a series of things we have to do. One is, we have to track things better so we know what's happening when, where and why. The second is to do a better job of responding when there are outbreaks. So, if we have a cluster of cases, we swoop in with the state, with the hospital, with the local in coordination and stop it. The third is to prevent it better, so we figure out how it's spreading and prevent that in the future.
3. Reducing deaths attributable to prescription painkiller abuse and overdose.
This has been one of the very few things in health that has gotten substantially worse over the past decade. There's no reason it has to. This is a problem that is, to a very great extent, caused by the health-care system. I believe we can do a great deal to reverse this problem through public health action and coordination with law enforcement. There's really good, bipartisan agreement on what needs to happen. But we need to make it happen. We need to support states, support localities and reduce the risks to people by improving the management of people with chronic pain.
We want to make sure people with pain get effective treatment, but we know that all too often, the path of least resistance for a physician may be to prescribe long-acting opiates. But the risk-benefit ratio of those opiates isn't adequately recognized. There are a lot of risks and pretty uncertain benefits. Someone who's got cancer and is likely not to survive the cancer — we want to absolutely make sure they get every bit of palliation they need. But that's very different from someone who's got back pain and comes in and asks for a prescription and may end up addicted for life.
4. Ending polio once and for all.
Polio eradication is something that CDC has been working on since 1988. We're closer than we've ever been, but that last mile is always the hardest.
Fundamentally, it's about Nigeria and Pakistan. In both countries, you have insecurity and violence. In Pakistan, you have assassination of health workers who are protecting children from paralysis. It's almost inconceivable. In Nigeria, you have some violence in some areas; that was the big setback last year. But you also have a health system that doesn't always reach where it's most needed.
When we began this [effort] in 1988, there were about 1,000 kids per day who were paralyzed by polio. Last year, there were just a couple hundred. So we've made a lot of progress. But until we get over the finish line, every kid everywhere in the world is at risk, because polio anywhere is a risk everywhere.
5. Defending against health threats that originate elsewhere in the world.
We are all connected by the air we breathe, by the water we drink, by the food we eat. What we're seeing is that it's part of our self-interest to ensure that countries all over the world are better able to find, stop and prevent health risks. It will help them be safer, more productive, more stable. And it will help us protect Americans from threats that could end up making us sick or killing us.
Ten years ago, after the SARS epidemic, the Chinese government began working with the CDC and said, "We want to create something like a CDC for China." And they did. When it came to the flu, we helped them learn how to grow the flu virus in the lab, how to do tracking to see where flu is spreading. We helped them to become a World Health Organization collaborating center for influenza. We helped them learn how to sequence the entire genome of the flu virus.
Because of that, when the H7N9 [virus] hit, they found out about it promptly, they rapidly responded and they informed the world openly about it. In fact, they posted on the Internet the genome of the H7N9 within hours of identifying it. That allowed us to make a diagnostic test so we could find out if people have flu, and to begin making a vaccine.
This is a long-winded way of saying that it was a harvest of 10 years of collaboration with the Chinese, that they were able to find this faster, stop it faster and share information faster. We need to do that with many countries and many diseases, all over the world, or we won't be safe.

I slept in the next day. I really expected to wake up and go to school. I guess mom let me have a day off.
Colton tried texting me a few times. He called once, right before homeroom. Of course I was still sleeping my butt off.
We did more than just kiss, just touch. Way more. We ended up doing it in the backseat of his car.
We were supposed to go out and eat but I voted out, wanting to be close to him all night. I got back around eleven, just like mom expected. But I was too tired to tell her anything whatsoever. Like I was even planning on saying anything.
It was the best night ever. So far, anyway.
I grabbed my phone right as Colton called me. What if he was in class and ended up getting in trouble because of me?
I answered it anyway, using a small voice. "Hey."
"Where are you?" He yelled into the phone.
I held it back a little. "I slept in."
"Slept in? I've been trying to make it through today and it hasn't been pleasant. Ethan wants to kill me!"
"He does not." I said, crossing my free arm over my chest. "He's jealous of you but he certainly doesn't want you dead."
"How would you know that? He told me that I'll pay for stealing you from him." Colton said and I heard him sniff. Was he crying?
"Colton, I won't let him hurt you, okay? I'll be in soon." I said, crawling out of bed.
"Text me when you get here. I'll be hiding."
"Colton, don't-" But he had already hung up. I sighed and got dressed. I could still make it for the last two classes if I left now.
"Ethan, we need to talk." I said, crossing my arms over my chest.
He laughed. He was trying to seem cool around his friends. Go figure. "Go ahead."
"I meant in private."
"Just say it. Get it over with." Ethan said, leaning against the lockers beside him. His friends behind him laughed.
"Dude, let's get out of here. Let them have their moment." Frank Rogers said, nudging the boy beside him. I didn't know that kid.
"Be with you in a sec." He said, making himself comfortable.
I glared at him. "What's your problem?"
"My problem? I don't know what you're talking about." He said casually.
"Yeah, I think you do." I growled, glaring at him. "Why can't you leave me and Colton alone? So what if we're dating?"
"I don't want to talk about this." He said, turning away from me and heading down the hall.
I caught up with him in an empty hallway and grabbed his arm. "Admit it, you're jealous."
"I'm not jealous." He said, looking back at me with pain in his eyes. "I'm in love with you, Jason. Why can't you just love me, too?"
"I love Colton, not you, Ethan. And if that means you'll beat me up for it, go ahead. It won't change anything." I said, knowing he'd be mad at me. There was no way he could be okay with all this. Not one bit. I'd be toast for sure.
"Cna I..." Then he shook his head. He took both of my hands from my armpits and squeezed them. "I'm not gonna hurt you. You wouldn't look as pretty."
I blushed. What was he about to do?
"I want you to be happy." He kissed me softly. I stood there, frozen. Completely shocked. "Make the right choice."
I stood there, stuttering and trying to speak right, as he left. Was it finally okay for me to love Colton and not feel bad? Was this the last time I'd ever talk to Ethan?
Colton stepped out of a random closet and just thhe look on his face... I almost died. He looked so sad, confused. Did he hear all that?
"Make the right choice." He whispered, his eyes tearing up.
I hugged him tightly, my arms wrapping around his neck. "I love you. Okay? I love you and I've always loved you. I always will. Please don't be mad at me."
He hugged me back, holding me as I cried. Finally, he spoke. The bell rang for the class change and people filled out into the hallways. "I love you, too. But we should get to class seeing as I skipped about as many as you did today."
I smiled at him and headed to my locker. I grabbed a simple notebook and continued down the hall.
"You know, I was starting to wonder if you'd ever tell me that." Colton said, wrapping his arm around my back.
I leaned into his side and rested my head on his shoulder. "I would've gotten to it someday."
