It's a great time to be an apprentice with the quantity and diversity of projects ongoing and on the books for the near future in the wall and ceiling installers' field of study and training.
I have been asked to write an article about how and why I run our classroom/shop as I would a job site and why I feel this is an important part of our apprentices' training while I have them for a short time at our training centre at BCWCA. I will also cover what I expect from our apprentices when attending.
I will start by reminiscing about my own training as a young apprentice days in prison. Seriously! Many of you may remember the Pacific Vocational Institute 1978-1986, our Carpenter-Lather Training Centre, formerly Haney Correctional Institute. We apprentices of that era literally went to jail to learn the theory and hands-on training of our craft and we went willingly. Al Vince was the warden of the day.
We have come a long way with training and improved facilities to mold our apprentices in the new millennium. Gone are the days when the instructor had to head down to the Haney Hotel to collect us from the pub during our extended lunch breaks. Bring back memories?
We are in a new world of youth, eager to learn the theory and basics of our craft and I take great pride being chosen to administer the set out curriculum to the tradespeople of the future.
The curriculum in our classroom training is set out using the National Occupational Analysis (NOA). This directs the instructor to address the requirements set forth by the Industry Training Authority (ITA) and to provide classroom instruction and hands-on shop work, working toward the end result that our apprentices receive their Red Seal Certification as a Wall and Ceiling Installer.
With proper training at the BCWCA and Finishing Trades Institute of BC (FTI), in partnership with the apprentices' sponsor companies, we should be able to produce a new generation of fully qualified tradespeople, resulting in a more efficient and progressive work force for our industry's future.
Many of my fellow classmates from my apprenticeship days have achieved great success in our trade and related aspects of the wall and ceiling industry. Well done, gentlemen.
A fond memory I have of my dad/mentor, Andy Smith, also a wall and ceiling contractor back in the day, was that of walking the corridors of Robson Square under construction in 1979. While wanting to check a P.S.F. for plumb, he asked a worker for a 4' spirit level. The worker did not have one nor did several others he asked. Not being able to do this and turning a new shade of Mad Red, we returned to the truck, proceeded to the nearest drywall supplier, and purchased every 4' spirit level they had in stock. Returning to the site with myself, a good quantity of levels, and my cart, we proceeded to walk the corridors again, passing out the levels to each worker. All the workers shook my dad's hand and thanked him for the tool, as it was Christmas time and payday Friday. Along with the paycheque, there was a gift certificate for a turkey and a note from dad that said something like: "You now all have a 4' level. The cost for the level has been deducted from your pay. You must have the proper tools to do your job." Well done, Dad.
On the first day of school at the BCWCA, in advance of our shop classes, I present a list of tools I expect our apprentices to have in their tool kits. I discuss the list with our apprentices and ask that they review the list with their respective employers and return the following week with the input. I have yet to receive a negative response from any contractor. Quite the opposite, I am thanked for driving this message home to the apprentices. The proper tools are needed to do the tasks of the day. In many cases, the employer is able to work with the apprentice along with generous support from our drywall supply companies to get the best deals on filling these tool requirements. A win-win for all concerned parties.
Ok, so now I have an apprentice to learn and work productively. What now? I explain to them that when they come to my job site (school) they will learn quickly if they show up five minutes before class they are already 10 minutes late. I need know who I have to work with today to assign tasks I need done. Start time is when we start work. I explain if I do not have their full attention, if they are not fit and dressed for work, the industry will not need them on site—definitely not on my job. Think about this for a minute. Your local fast food restaurant requires nothing less. Should be simple.
There will be no cellphones on my job. I demand your full attention, as you are working for me today. This is not a new thought. Keep going back to the fast food analogy.
On my job site, you are required to wear your P.P.E. at all times. You will be warned once and told to leave the job site and study quietly in the classroom the second time. Unfortunately, these apprentices are not always sitting alone. They learn. They learn quickly. This issue is resolved. Simple, right?
At your training facility, I do everything I can to simulate an actual job site scenario that I believe brings the apprentice to a higher understanding that there are rules in place on any site and they must be followed. We don't always like to follow the rules but they are necessary to provide continuity and in most cases to provide safety to our workers.
We have two break times in our regular work days at my site (school), at which time we collectively stop working. There are no workers left working alone. Again, safety of the workers comes first. The apprentices quickly appreciate this and everyone is on board. We now have a well-oiled machine. I have laid out the rules of my site, they have learned them, abide by them, and we are all in a good place moving forward productively, efficiently, and most important, safely. A relatively simple process.
We have a classroom that can accommodate 16 students comfortably for book, theory, and curriculum review work. It is well lit, has lots of windows, and media presentation is available for training purposes. A lunch room adjacent to the classroom provides a seating area, fridge, microwave, coffee machine, toaster oven, and washing up area for dishes. There are two half-bathrooms here. One at front of the class and one in the shop.
The shop area is approximately 2000 square feet where we construct mock-up rooms providing practical training using our most common component materials.
I have the apprentices attend classroom time for theory work specifically on Thursday nights as they are tired from working on site all day. Safety first again, as I don't need exhausted workers in the shop area.
The classroom work is a casual environment. No phones allowed. I actually have a phone jail box in the classroom. We review the curriculum, as discussed earlier set out by the NOA, and we distribute quizzes on different aspects of the trade for marking scores.
As a superintendent for a large general contractor, it is my intent that they receive the training I am looking for on my actual project sites. They should leave here with a real world experience.
In my opinion, the industry needs a kick start and I believe we need to start at the beginning with basic work ethics, good habits, first on the job-last to leave habits. Would you agree?
When you send me your apprentices, I will try and return them to you in one piece and with a new bounce their step, eager to learn and productively and efficiently produce for you in a safe manner. Ask any of my past students what my number one rule is at the end of each week's session: Make the Boss Money.
Again, I thank you in advance for your continued support of your training facility at BCWCA, and look forward to having you send forward the journeypersons of tomorrow.
I will return them in one piece. ■

Hopefully, you do understand how important preliminary hard disk protection is and how epic backup's contribution is. The software market place offers a set of utilities which offer every sort of backup advantages one can think of. Is there a possibility a person can easy make her way through this world of apps and purchase a truly meaningful one? Let's see the opportunities.
One of the best steps to find its way to a mind is sticking to famous names. Acronis, Genie Backup, and other brands seem to own amazing customer communities. Doesn't this mean I may also believe their utility, if there are so many fans already?
Another way, a little more time consuming, but also a more reliable one, is to check out special software options. Knowledge principles, but where am I supposed to begin from, one may righteously ask? There those borderless backup application directories, how do I see a light in this kingdom of shadow?
The latest Recover USB Pen Drive Data review 2012 is about must-know functions of the latest backup utilities. Remembering those will reliably enlarge your fortunate probability to discover a truly worthy backup app.
In the world of backup utilities (in the common information technology industry too) there is a hard law the programmers often stick to: get more for little. Way far too often there is a software which demanded additional sum for making even main options available. Here is a perfect instance: Recover USB Pen Drive Data.
For instance, you have the application which is only able of backing your computer files up. To restore it you need to buy something else from the same developer.
Another trouble to a protected existence is the unhappy fact that present backup tools often work only with the popular systems (Windows 7 or XP) and don't deal with less popular but key ones (e.g. Windows Sbs 2008). This makes those programs of small suitable for many business purposes. Just as at TurboBackup.
At last but not least, a lot of backup software solutions need advanced user experience. With some applications there are cases when you must boot under another Os to make a hard disk drive image or you find yourself killing complex small processes by hand. If there are any bad traditions in the industry of backup software apps, unfortunately this is surely one. E.g. set up Handy Backup: significant features, but doubtful chances for dummies.
So, in order to be sure a backup solution can make data you require, it is always effective to verify what it can't perform. This type of information is commonly out-of-sight, as no sane manufacturer won't be showing you in public what exactly the defects of his tool are. But don't hesitate to inquire those backup software developers directly via email or, even better, in Twitter or Facebook. Whether it is Acronis or Recover USB Pen Drive Data, just ask them. Not responding will cost them a customer, so they will maybr have to answer.
In addition have in view a common rule: if there is nothing about a special function on a manufacturer website, then it is extremely probable there is no such functionality by the utility.
We wish that this Recover USB Pen Drive Data review assisted you to know the present backup software market clearer!

Being a professional athlete must be one amazing feeling. You get to represent your nation at the international level along with earning money and fame. While athletes travel around the world, their family enjoys all the luxuries in life which they get with help from the government and the sports body of their country. However, if you take fame and sports away from them, they're ordinary people just like us. They also enjoy watching films, going out on vacation often, and cherish beautiful relationships. It's normal for them to find someone they're attracted to, and enjoy getting intense with them. It's a simple biology at work.
Now, when it's obvious they do get involved romantically, there are some cases in which they've made some mistakes like getting involved with someone who is already married. In some cases, that married partner to which your favourite sports person links is married to none other than their teammate.
We at WittyFeed have compiled this list to expose athletes who had an affair with their teammate's partner, in some cases; slept with them.
Have a look!
We start things off from Pavel Bure, a Russian an attacking player who was once the best hockey player at the national level. While playing in 12 NHL seasons, he travelled to Florida, NYC, and Vancouver; but his name was never linked with anyone until some reports revealed that he linked with Sergei Fedorov's partner and tennis star Anna Kournikova. In 2000, both of them were photographed too close to each other. Again in 2001, Fedorov confirmed that he was married to Anna, and she was indeed having an affair with Bure.
The NBA has seen many players over the decades, and one of them is Tony Parker. Apart from being a basketball player, he is also known for being married to Eva Longoria. However, Eva found out that Parker is having an affair with Erin Barry, former wife of his former teammate, following which Eva divorced Tony Parker.
The soccer as a game is famous in England, and John Terry is considered to be one of the popular sportsmen of this country. There was news that this player 'allegedly' had dated a model, Vanessa Perroncel for almost four months. Vanessa was married to Wayne Bridge, his former teammate from Chelsea.
John Terry might be considered as a great soccer player, but the same cannot be said about his older brother, Paul, who played the game for 13 years but hasn't been able to play for his country on the National level.
However, while playing for Rushden and Diamond FC in 2011, Paul Terry got involved with his teammate, Dale Roberts' wife. Unfortunately, Dale caught them in compromising situation and ended up taking his life.
In 2011, Derek had a teammate known as Matt Barnes, and after four years of togetherness, both of them got into physical violence. Later it was revealed that Fisher was seeing Barnes' newly single ex-wife. However, this wasn't even the issue. Derek and Matt's wife has been cheating on him for four years, and Derek was the reason behind Matt and his wife's divorce. I mean, wow.
In 2002, Wayne made a lot of mistakes, and one of them was getting caught in the bathroom with his teammate's wife during a team birthday party. Everyone in the party saw this happen. Carey then ran away and didn't reveal his identity for an entire year to avoid the media.
Rafael Palmeiro has had a very controversial career, but it turns out this man is a legend when it comes to having an affair with teammate's wife. The man is accused of having not just one, but an affair with most of his teammate's wives. Especially with his former teammate, Ryne Sandberg's wife.
Avisail has been playing with Chicago White Sox, but then he came into the league with Detroit Tigers and soon the rumours were swirling that he has an affair with Prince Fielder's wife. A lot of people say that these were just rumours, where in reality, they both were spotted fighting in the clubhouse.
When Tate decided to leave his team in Seahawks in Seattle, the team could've signed him back; but that didn't happen. It is said that Russell Wilson did not want him in the team. The reason came out when Tate left and on the same day, his wife decided to divorce him.
When Brendan was playing in St. Louis, he didn't only play the game, but also played with his teammate's wife. The name of that teammate is Craig Janney. The truth did come out in 1988 when he married Janney's ex.
When Steven Nash was a teammate with Jason Richardson; he found out that his wife is seeing Jason. In the same year, Nash filed for the divorce. The reason for their divorce wasn't Jason, but Steven's wife who carried Jason's child inside her.
John was so good in his work that his team's coach not only considered him for the captaincy but also called him "Captain for life." However, that did not last long, and Harkes was removed from the national team for undisclosed reasons. In 2010, it came out the issue was between John and Eric Wynalda. He had slept with Eric's wife.
A couple of names ago we talked about Mr Rafael Palmeiro who had an affair with most of his teammates' wives. Well, it turns out that Karma aptly played its part, as Mrs Palmeiro was in rumours for having slept with Dave. Not only Dave but a lot of Rafael's teammates enjoyed her company at night as well.
Murray did play for the University of Oklahoma and there he had an affair with fellow teammate, Brennan Clay's wife. Clay had no idea about it until his wife's old phone caught his attention.
Manning was a good friend of Dennis Eckersley, and there was a time in both friends' career when they shared a common room. Both were best of friends, but nothing could stop Manning from sleeping with Dennis' wife.
That's all, folks!

The house was very comfortable and met our needs perfectly. The kitchen (and quality appliances & pots/pans) were perfect for cooking big meals for the team - and a great change from a cramped Manhattan kitchen. Great yard and close enough to run to the beach at Shinnecock Park. Thanks again.

We had a great experience staying here a week ago, for a long weekend. Megan was a great host and extremely responsive. The house is gorgeous - perfect for large groups. And the grounds/backyard and pool/fire pit were fabulous amenities!! Would definitely stay here again.
Last weekend I hosted a bachelorette weekend for myself and 11 women. A dozen women all shared this amazing house for 3 nights and loved every minute. There were plenty of beds, most people had their own. The hot tub its MASSIVE. and the pool was sparkling and clean. The giant table in the large open plan living/dining area comfortably accommodated all 12 of us. Megan was very helpful throughout the whole process. All the girls commented on how impressed they were with the house. We even had a chef who's clients are mostly based in and around the Hamptons and she was blown away with how lovely the house was. many of the girls have asked about future booking at the house they loved it so much! I'd highly recommend staying here!
Stayed here with a few couples. The house has a great pool, hot tub, and fire pit. The property is huge, ~5mins away from train, and in great shape!
Had a wonderful stay at this spacious, clean and modern home!
The house was beautiful with the hard wood floors, the master bathroom had a steam room and amazing waterfall shower. The only issue was the outside speakers not working.
This place was amazing - beautifully appointed home with great amenities - hot tub was HUGE! The master bedroom had possibly the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, steam shower was a delight, and the media entertainment area in the basement was a surprise! Plenty of beds and space for all including a fire pit and playground in the back yard (also lots of cribs and other great rooms for kids - awesomely family friendly). Check-in was easy, and the owners were great to work with. Home was conveniently located to bar, supermarket and other local hotspots. Would definately stay again!!

Sean lost his job. This news came on Thursday, unexpectedly, devastatingly, on Thursday. Things have been tight with both of us working. Ends won't quite meet with one salary.
We already knew our monthly finances, since I'd designated this month to be "Finance Month" in the Happiness Project. I had dug in to our water and electric bills, begun turning off the heat when no one is home. We'd already concocted a plan to do just four loads of laundry a week, and running the dishwasher every two or three days. These were small ways to save.
Instead of launching in to panic mode, we are marching towards a plan. This is something we are doing together, instead of letting it tear us apart. We've already calmly discussed groceries, shopping the other things we can do to make a difference.
It's just crazy that this has occurred during a month that I had decided I would focus on Finances. Just as we'd started making strides, we have to change our direction. Needless to say, we will be looking at some big changes. I'm relieved in some ways that we'd already started the hard work, the conversations about what we spend and why, before the stress of NEEDING to talk about these things was so very real.

The sappy side of me got sucked in to Taylor Swift's "Love Song" tonight… as it's raining and we played cards with my parents and our baby slept soundly, safely, warm in the other room. We'll be fine. And this all feels so very, very real.
This love is difficult but it's real.
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes".

We ate a late Thanksgiving dinner with Isaac's family on Sunday evening. With Isaac's two sisters (and Dad) working/saving lives/birthing babies/caring for the sick at UAMS they have some pretty atypical schedules... and both sisters were working on Thanksgiving this year. It made sense to celebrate a few days late. It was actually really nice. We were able to savor the season a bit longer and anticipate a gourmet meal for even longer than usual :)
Annette helped with pies, Aunt Rachel the green bean bundles and corn souffle.
ONE of the three delicious turkeys Nonnie served.
Charles is obsessed with the dogs.
And Cruz : )
And Cruz : )
Annette in ruffle pants... rarely happens anymore, yet it's one of my favorite little joys :)
Below, she is sitting on a very special little bench at a very special round table which were carefully and thoughtfully made by Nonnie's brother. The kids love, love sitting here for family gatherings. What wonderful, beautiful, functional heirlooms.
We missed Isaac's older 2 brothers who weren't in town this year. Amber and Isaac's parents visited the youngest brother, Jordan, at Greenhurst last week. Six siblings are a lot to get in one place at one time!
The cherry on top of celebrating Thanksgiving -- we celebrated Amber and Nonnie's November birthdays too!
Two special ladies that we love very very much. <3 <3
Oh the pies!!! Connie's pies are the BEST.
Homemade down to their delicious crust. Chocolate, pumpkin, pecan, apple. I ate some of all of them.... worth the overly OVER stuffed feeling.
We made a little keepsake book for Nonnie using the grandkid's artwork and some photos. Fun looking through it with the family.
Thankful, thankful.
For the wonderful food, conversation, and memories made with Isaac's family this year.

Here are some good references on how to throw one of these together:
- YouTube: Coat hanger HD Antenna!
- Blog: How to build an HDTV Antenna... cheap!
- Listing of over-the-air HD stations
Cool post as for me. It would be great to read a bit more concerning that theme. The only thing that blog misses is some pictures of some gizmos.

I have recently bought an antenna which works great. I can receive all of my local channels in my area with clear signal. You don't half to spend alot for good quality.

M: Cactus pears, also called cactus fruit, prickly pears or tunas, grow on the end of cactus paddles, the purple fruit looking like odd, swollen fingers. Here in North Carolina, they're in season from September into December and the shockingly vibrant color and watermelon-meets-kiwi sweetness of the flesh makes it a winner eaten raw, used in relishes or juiced for use in sorbet, cocktails or, of course, jelly. It's one of my favorite fall fruits. So why do I feel a hint of dread when I hear it's time to harvest?
It's probably because I've never once collected the prickly pears without taking a little damage. The cacti themselves have sharp, inch-long thorns that will easily stick you right through your Levi's. If you do manage to avoid and contact with the paddles, the fruit itself is covered with hair-like barbs that make it all but impossible to pick them bare-handed or even wearing thin gloves. It's worth the effort, but go prepared. Wear heavy leather gloves or use tongs to twist the fruit free from the paddle and if you drop one into the void between cacti, don't be a hero. Let it go.
Once you get them home, hold the fruit with tongs and scrub the barbs off using a firm brush. Cut the ends off and use a knife to score one side to peel. There are different techniques for extracting the juice and dealing with the small seeds within. I don't cook them, I don't slice them open and scrape out the seeds, i don't mash them by hand. Instead, toss the fruit into the blender (or food processor) whole and liquify the lot of them. Pour through a fine sieve or cheesecloth to remove remaining solids with a yield of roughly a cup of juice per pound of fruit.
Who'd have thought making the jelly would be the easy part of this recipe for making jelly? With the addition of a little lime juice for flavor and acidity, this is a straightforward dry pectin jelly that is quick to make and tastes as good as it looks. Again, worth it. But tread carefully among the cacti.
- 3½ cups cactus pear juice
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 (1.75 oz) package dry pectin
- 4½ cups sugar
- Combine cactus pear juice, lime juice and dry pectin in a large, heavy pot and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Add sugar and return to boil for one minute.
- Remove from heat and ladle into six sterilized half pint jars, leaving ¼" of head space.
- Cap jars with lids and bands.
- Process 5 minutes to in a boiling water bath to seal.

MEYCAUAYAN CITY – A three-year-old boy was killed by his stepfather yesterday morning after he pooped on his bed.
Superintendent Demosthenes Felix, city police chief, said the suspect, Christopher Valenzuela, 20, was arrested after his neighbors accused him of being responsible for the death of his stepson, Gilbert Varona.
Police said two of the suspect's neighbors heard the boy crying at around 7 a.m. One of them asked his wife to check it out.
Moments later, they said they no longer heard the boy crying and at around 10 a.m. children in the neighborhood said Gilbert had died because he was punched on the abdomen.
This prompted the suspect's neighbors to inform the police about the incident.
Police said Valenzuela was enraged when the boy pooped on his bed. The boy bore bruises and fingernail marks on the back of his neck.
Police are readying homicide and child abuse charges against Valenzuela.

United States District Court, M.D. Pennsylvania
August 20, 2014
REBEKAH RUSHIN, Plaintiff.v.CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.
SYLVIA H. RAMBO, District Judge.
In this appeal from a decision of the Commissioner of Social Security denying Disability Insurance Benefits, Plaintiff claims the administrative decision concluding that she is not disabled as defined by the Social Security Act is not supported by substantial evidence. For the following reasons, the court will affirm the decision of the Commissioner.
I. Background
A. Procedural History
On September 3, 2010, Plaintiff Rebekah Rushin ("Plaintiff") protectively filed applications for Disability Insurance Benefits ("DIB") and Supplemental Security Income ("SSI"), under Titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act, claiming that she suffers from a disability that began on August 31, 2009. ( See Doc. 10-5, pp. 2-3 of 20.) The Social Security Administration initially denied Plaintiff's application by decision dated March 2, 2011. (Doc. 10-4, pp. 2-10 of 33.) On March 25, 2011, Plaintiff requested a hearing before an Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ"). ( Id. at p. 12 of 33.) ALJ Sridhar Boini held a hearing on January 11, 2012, at which Plaintiff and vocational expert Michele Georgio testified. (Doc. 10-2, pp. 23-43 of 81.) ALJ Boini issued an unfavorable decision to Plaintiff on April 9, 2012 ( id. at p. 7 of 81), and Plaintiff filed an appeal with the Appeals Council on May 3, 2012 ( id. at p. 5 of 81). The Appeals Council denied Plaintiff's request on June 18, 2013 ( id. at pp. 1-4 of 81), and Plaintiff commenced the instant action on August 9, 2013 (Doc. 1).
B. Evidence of Record
Plaintiff was 22 years old and considered a "younger individual"[1] under the Act at the time of the alleged onset date of her disability. ( See Doc. 10-5, p. 2 of 20.) She has a high school education and prior relevant work experience as a cashier. She lives with her mother and father. (Doc. 10-2, p. 36 of 81.)
On April 10, 2007, Plaintiff was involved in a motor vehicle accident and was treated at the Pocono Medical Center for severe back pain. (Doc. 10-7, pp. 5-6 of 19.) Radiological exams taken one week after the accident revealed that she suffered a lumbar spine fracture. (Doc. 10-7, pp. 13-14 of 19.)
On January 27, 2009, Plaintiff sought treatment at Coordinated Health Services ("CHS"), where she was seen by physiatrist Dr. Steven Mazza, M.D.[2] Dr. Mazza's examination revealed a right-side antalgic gait and limited lumbar range of motion. (Doc. 10-8, p. 35 of 49.) Plaintiff had 5/5 strength in all major muscle groups and in the lower extremities bilaterally. ( Id. ) However, her sensation was diminished in an L5-S1 distribution on the right. ( Id. ) Dr. Mazza reviewed an MRI of Plaintiff's lumbar spine, which demonstrated a central annular fissure at L3-4 with a central disk protrusion and lateral recess stenosis at L4-5, and a left paracentral disk herniation/protrusion with lateral recess and neuroforaminal stenosis at L5-S1. ( Id. ) Electrodiagnostic studies were normal with some elevation of the L5-S1 nerve roots. ( Id. )
During examinations conducted by Dr. Mazza in early 2010, Plaintiff continued to exhibit limited lumbar range of motion and a right-sided gait. (Doc. 10-8, pp. 21, 26, 31, 43 of 49.) Plaintiff's primary complaint concerned low back pain with extension into her right leg. ( Id. ) In an effort to treat her pain, Plaintiff received several epidural injections into her spine and an L3-4-5 medial branch block with minimal relief. (Doc. 10-9, pp. 7-12 of 77; see Doc. 10-8, pp. 26-27 of 49.)
On April 16, 2010, Plaintiff received a repeat MRI, which revealed multilevel spondylotic changes throughout the lumbar spine, a broad-based disc herniation at L3-4, and an anterior wedge deformity/fracture involving the L1 vertabrae. (Doc. 10-8, pp. 47-49 of 49.)
At an appointment with Dr. Mazza on May 13, 2010, Plaintiff continued to complain of low back pain extending into the right leg and rated her pain as a 9 out of 10. ( Id. at pp. 16-17 of 49.) Upon examination, Plaintiff was in no acute distress and her lower extremity strength and sensations were grossly intact bilaterally. ( Id. at p. 17 of 49.) However, she walked with a right-sided gait and had limited lumbar range of motion. ( Id. ) Dr. Mazza referred Plaintiff to a neurosurgeon and directed her to continue with pain medication. ( Id. )
Plaintiff's subsequent examinations with Dr. Mazza in June and July 2010, revealed the same objective findings as prior examinations. ( Id. at pp. 5-13 of 49.) Dr. Mazza's treatment notes reflected that Plaintiff was considering surgery due to her continued, severe lower back pain and functional limitations that were not improving with conservative and interventional care. ( Id. ) An EMG and nerve conduction velocity study conducted on July 30, 2010, provided normal findings. ( Id. at pp. 5-7.)
Plaintiff underwent a right-sided L4-5 and L5-S1 microdiskectomy on September 27, 2010, performed by Dr. Chris Lycette, M.D. (Doc. 10-9, pp. 63-64 of 77.) At her post-operative consultation on October 18, 2010, Plaintiff reported feeling better than she did pre-operatively, but noted that she continued to have "some right leg pains at times and some numbness/tingling along the right calf and foot." (Doc. 10-12, p. 33 of 98.) Dr. Lycette instructed her to start physical therapy and to follow up with him in six weeks. ( Id. at p. 34 of 98.)
On January 31, 2011, Dr. Linda Blouse, M.D. performed a consultative examination of Plaintiff at the request of the Social Security Administration. Plaintiff complained of increasing low back pain with radiation into her right leg since the time of her accident in 2007. (Doc. 10-12, p. 38 of 98.) She reported that she had undergone a laminectomy, but experienced no significant relief of her pain. ( Id. ) She described the pain as continuous but worsening with activity. ( Id. ) She tried to discontinue narcotics after suffering a seizure, but the pain was so severe that she had to continue the pain medication. ( Id. ) Plaintiff expressed difficulty with lifting and carrying more than a gallon of milk and with sitting and standing for more than ten minutes. ( Id. at p. 39 of 98.) Upon examination, Dr. Blouse observed that Plaintiff had decreased range of motion of the lumbar spine and a positive straight leg raise test on the right. ( Id. at p. 40 of 98.) Her deep tendon reflexes and strength were equal bilaterally. ( Id. ) Following her examination, Dr. Blouse completed a residual functional capacity assessment, wherein she indicated that Plaintiff could frequently lift and carry 2-3 pounds and occasionally lift and carry ten pounds. ( Id. at p. 43 of 98.) She further opined that Plaintiff could not sit for more than one hour cumulatively in an eight hour work day and could stand for less than one hour cumulatively in an eight hour work day. ( Id. )
On March 1, 2011, Dr. Elizabeth Kamenar, a consulting physician for the State Agency, completed a physical RFC assessment for Plaintiff. (Doc. 10-12, pp. 70-76 of 98.) Dr. Kamenar opined that Plaintiff would be capable of doing a range of light work, but with occasional postural limitations and environmental limitations. ( Id. )
On March 21, 2011, Plaintiff returned to Dr. Lycette and reported that she had experienced overall improvement in her back and leg pain with the pain now located mainly along the side of the thigh to the shin. (Doc. 10-12, p. 96 of 98.) She was working to wean herself off pain medications. ( Id. ) Upon examination, Dr. Lycette observed that Plaintiff was not in acute distress and had a normal gait. ( Id. at p. 97 of 98.) She had normal strength in her upper and lower extremities and no evidence of sensory ...

Ever since Donald Trump secured the Republican nomination, rational and sane people have been wondering exactly how he is going to weasel out of debating Hillary Clinton, since he's obviously not mentally on her level. He's already tried whining about the debate schedule and that the rules are unfair, and we're certain he'll continue that, since he hasn't actually officially agreed to show up yet. Otherwise, we've heard he's not much for studying and just plans to be himself, which should work out wonderfully for Hillary.
But he's been having debate strategery sessions lately at one of his golf clubs in New Jersey, and Trump and all his closest BFFs are getting together again this Sunday! Won't that be great?
They will gather over lunch at the golf club on Sunday to plot strategy, [Trump campaign manager Kellyanne] Conway confirmed during an appearance on "Fox News Sunday."
"I'll be at lunch at Bedminster, and I'm sure we'll have a lively conversation," she said. "Look, he's an unconventional candidate, and he's not going to prepare the way Hillary does, which is, you know, locking her[self] in a room and crammed [sic] her head with all those binders."
Because that's how you do debate prep, with "lively conversation," as opposed to being a big lame nerdface Woman Full Of Binders like Hillary. The Washington Post gives us a little more background on these disco brunches at Bedminster, and how they are preparing Trump to meet that crooked, all powerful Hillary, who is probably too frail to even get up on the debate stage anyway:
He summons his informal band of counselors — including former New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, talk-radio host Laura Ingraham and ousted Fox News Channel chairman Roger Ailes — to his New Jersey golf course for Sunday chats. Over bacon cheeseburgers, hot dogs and glasses of Coca-Cola, they test out zingers and chew over ways to refine the Republican nominee's pitch.
That sounds fabulous. While Hillary The Woman is hunkered over her binders learning "information," like a common woman who lives inside binders, Trump will be on the patio by the golf course, stuffing bacon cheeseburgers and hot dogs into his anal fissure of a mouth, testing out new nicknames for Hillary to see if they elicit LOLs from the most moronic assholes in the world.campaign baby-daddy Stephen Bannon was reportedly at the last Sunday Funday, as were Ivanka Trump and her husband, which must have been mighty distracting for Donald, since he's suggested in the past he's into his daughter in the sexual way! They will probably be there this Sunday too, we are guessing, because WTF else do they have to do?
But are they going to practice ANY for the debates? Like, will Roger Ailes put on a blonde wig and bleed out of his wherever while he pretends to be Megyn Kelly asking mean questions? Wasn't that the point of Trump hiring all these new people, so he can have a campaign that's run more professionally? Hahaha, no, you silly goose, that was the LAST campaign shake-up. This one was so Trump can be surrounded by sycophantic yes-men while his campaign dies a fiery death. According to the WaPo, some of his staff have made him some binders full of information, but he hasn't read them. The WaPo also says that if Trump does in fact end up practicing for his debates, Laura Ingraham might play Hillary, which should be magnificent because Laura, like Hillary, is a lady.
But that's all conjecture, as such rehearsals are surely not necessary. They should just keep putting beefs and hot dogs in their faces and coming up with hilarious zingers, because that will obviously be enough to beat Hillary in debate, obviously.

Dieter Hecking revelled in Wolfsburg's thrilling victory at home to Manchester United, insisting the Germans deserved to win and reach the knockout round.
Wolfsburg topped Group B and sent United crashing out of the Champions League following a 3-2 win on Tuesday.
Hecking and Co. overcame an early deficit as Naldo and Vieirinha cancelled out Anthony Martial's 10th-minute opener before half-time.
A Josuha Guilavogui own goal offered United a lifeline with eight minutes remaining but their hopes were dashed two minutes later after Naldo netted his second.
The dramatic contest sent Wolfsburg into the last 16 for the first time and, speaking post-match, Hecking said: "Congratulations to my team: they did a lot of what we had planned. We saw a great game, with everything at stake today.
"I would have liked us to take the lead with that chance we had, but then we had to stomach them scoring the first goal. But it was good we equalised quickly and then we had a great goal for 2-1 and could have got a third.
"We had a bit of luck at times, but you need that when you are playing a quality side like Manchester United. I would have liked us to have been a bit more clinical with some counter-attacks, and when Louis van Gaal sent on two players who are good in the air, and I knew it meant only one thing. But we deserved to win and deserved to reach the knockout rounds."
Wolfsburg's achievement is even more remarkable, given the departures of star duo Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) and Ivan Perisic (Inter) in the off-season.
Hecking added: "We knew it was not going to be easy [after losing De Bruyne and Perisic] and we'd need time to get back on track, and I think we have deserved some criticism.
"We've won all of our home games in the Champions League and you've got to do that if you want to go through – but this was not about atoning for what happened in the Bundesliga at the weekend [losing to Borussia Dortmund].
"When I see who came second in their groups – Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Benfica – they are big teams, but we are also good and we've sent a message to the Champions League tonight. We've got to take it as it comes. We have a chance so we want to take it."

Immigrant children now topic in governor's race
BOSTON — Gov. Deval Patrick's offer to shelter unaccompanied children crossing the nation's southern border is drawing a range of reactions from those hoping to fill his job.
The three Democratic candidates for governor — Attorney General Martha Coakley, former federal health care official Donald Berwick, and state Treasurer Steve Grossman — have all praised Patrick for responding to a humanitarian crisis.

The fifth charity golf day, organised by the Rotary Club of King's Lynn, was held at Middleton Golf Club.
Once again the event was blessed with fine weather and was followed by a meal in the club house.
The competition attracted 23 teams, including more ladies teams than had entered in previous years.
The winning team's captain, Chris Nixon thanked the Rotary Club for organising such a successful competition and said he looked forward to taking part again next year.
The event was generously sponsored by local firms and individuals resulting in a record £13,000 being raised for good causes across West Norfolk.
King's Lynn Rotary Club president Keith Boyce thanked the players for taking part and junior vice-president, Mark Walker, for once again organising a hugely-successful event.

"These are the shocking new powers police will have under Trump's immigration measures"
Sorry, but this author doesn't know what she is writing about.
Police powers in the United States are, and have long been, frightening and extreme. That is nothing new.
Police kill about 1,100 people in the streets every year, plus wound many others, and there are almost no consequences for any of them, including those who shoot people in the back.
American police also ruthlessly employ RICO laws (anti-organized crime laws) to seize people's personal effects, even when they are not the products of criminal activity. And they often do not return them.
They also routinely send in the armored guys in black suits to break down people's front doors, sometimes in the middle of the night, ordering everyone to hit the floor and leaving them terrified. They do this sometimes on a mere malicious false tip about drugs. There's even a word for doing this to someone as a dirty joke. It is called "swatting."
Wake up to the fact that America is an extremely brutal place. I grew up there. I know.
That's why the country is hyped and ready, at any time, to start some new killing abroad. Americans think nothing of it.

The Poem
(Critical Guide to Poetry for Students)
Gerard Manley Hopkins's sonnet "Carrion Comfort" displays brilliantly the complex prosody he developed for himself from many poetic sources, including Old English, Welsh, Italian, and various religious traditions. Despite its initial impression of difficulty, with a careful reading both the meaning and the form become clear. This poem must be read aloud, however, if the reader wishes to understand Hopkins's profoundly moving struggle with despair and with God.
"Carrion Comfort" is a variation on the Petrarchan or Italian sonnet form; this poem was one of a series of six sonnets Hopkins wrote in 1885 that have been called the "terrible sonnets" and part of a larger cycle known as the "sonnets of desolation" because of the tremendous power and pain in them. In this poem, though, Hopkins is defying the despair that threatens and even appears to overwhelm him in other sonnets of this cycle. He entitles this despair "carrion," after the dead and putrefying flesh that buzzards and other scavengers devour; he refuses to feed upon it, to find comfort in that despair.
In the first quatrain he resists both the temptation of despair and suicide and proclaims his ability to hope, or, if that is too extreme, at least to wish for day and "not choose not to be." He will not "untwistthe last strands of man/ in [him]"; that is, he will not give up his humanity to despair. In the second quatrain the poet speaks to an adversary...

Cambodia's ties with neighboring Vietnam will further improve when both countries sign a border trade agreement to boost commerce, according to an official in the Ministry of Commerce.
Soeng Sophary, the ministry's spokesperson, told Khmer Times that Vietnam's Industry and Trade Ministry and Cambodia's Commerce Ministry are presently in negotiations to finalize the agreement.
"This border trade agreement came about as a result of the prime minister's visit to Vietnam," said Ms. Sophary.
Prime Minister Hun Sen yesterday concluded his two-day official visit to Vietnam to boost trade between both countries and also discuss pending cross-border issues, including the exchange of prisoners.
"The Cambodia-Vietnam border trade agreement will address current challenges in overland trade between both countries. It will help smoothen import and export issues along the main common border and also at other border corridors," said Ms. Sophary.
She added that both countries already had clauses for border trade in their formal trading agreements, but those clauses were "at times outdated."
"This border trade agreement now focuses on issues that are more contemporary to make cross-border trade between Cambodia and Vietnam problem-free and also transparent."
Total investment capital from Vietnam is $2.86 billion while two-way trade volume between Vietnam and Cambodia topped $3.37 billion in 2015 and $2.38 billion by the end of October this year, according to official figures. In June 2012, both governments pledged to push bilateral trade to $5 billion by 2015. That target, however, had not been reached due to global economic factors.
In July, Cambodia and Vietnam signed an agreement in Phnom Penh to kick-start a border model market in Memot district of Tbong Khmum province, operated by Cambodian and Vietnamese companies. There are hopes that the model market will help facilitate trade flow by land between both countries.
In October, Cambodia called on Vietnam to withdraw quarantine and biosecurity measures for its imports from the Kingdom, to boost bilateral trade to the $5 billion target.
"We want our trade flow [with Vietnam] to increase and also import and export tariffs to be reduced to zero. Most importantly we want Vietnam to do away with technical barriers against our exports, such as stringent sanitary and phytosanitary [SPS] measures to boost bilateral trade further," said Secretary of State for Commerce Chhuon Dara at the Vietnamese Trade Fair 2016.
SPS measures are the World Trade Organization's quarantine and biosecurity requirements to protect human and animal health from risks arising from the introduction of pests and diseases. It also prevents health risks arising from additives, toxins and contaminants in food and feed.
"I think that bilateral trade between Cambodia and Vietnam will soon reach $5 billion. Because of this, we have to ensure that barriers like SPS measures are removed," said Mr. Dara.
Mey Kalyan, senior adviser to the Supreme National Economic Council, told Khmer Times that though Cambodia's trade relationship with Vietnam was important, it was important for the Kingdom to also strengthen commercial ties with other neighboring countries.
"We also need to have strong bilateral trade ties with Laos, Thailand and other countries in Asean. There must be a balance and only then can we compete in a level playing field," said Mr. Kalyan.
Cambodia-Vietnam Border Pact
Cambodia's ties with neighboring Vietnam will further improve when both countries sign a border trade agreement to boost commerce, according to an official in the Ministry of Commerce.

Avid fan Kristen Bell stayed casual in a pair of skinny dark jeans that she paired with a light pink loose tank which was layered under a darker shade cropped long-sleeve pullover. She added a touch of sparkle with silver glittered pumps. Soft make-up and a loosely gathered ponytail finished her look.
Emma Roberts played with texture and color for her look! The 20-year-old wore a Rebecca Taylor green "Torn Rose" cami underneath her sand-colored scallop trim leather jacket from the Spring/Summer 2011 collection. She added a darker tone to the bright mixture with a navy blue ikat '40s skirt from the Resort 2012 collection. Because it was quite chilly, Emma warmed up her ensemble with opaque black tights and finished off with leather platform boots by Miu Miu. She's carrying a black leather raso clutch by Prada.
Emmy Rossum selected a very summery look for the evening — embrace the fall weather Emmy! The 25-year-old "Shameless" actress wore an ivory silk dress with navy blue ikat print from Rebecca's Resort 2012 collection with a pair of black peep toe "Jenny" sandals by Christian Louboutin. She accessorized with a matching black clutch before finishing off her look with loose wavy hair and a touch of color — a bright red lippe.
Leven Rambin is a busy girl! The 21-year-old actress is currently filming "Of Men and Mavericks" before she gets ready to promote "The Hunger Games" in a couple of months. Leven took some time out to enjoy a night of fashion wearing a warm Rebecca Minkoff knit olive sweater over a feminine floral printed Gentle Fawn skirt. I loved her continued mixture of textures and colors when it came to her accessories!
Leven wore layered necklaces, a Lia Sophia ring, and snakeskin strappy platform cutout ankle boots by Barbara Bui. She finished off her look with curled-to-perfection blonde tendrils and carried a cross-body bag by Rebecca Minkoff.
I'm not sure what was really going on when it came to Kaley Cuoco's look of the night. She wore a pretty paneled jacquard pindot silk ocean blue dress from Rebecca's Resort 2012 collection, and played up the laid back boho-vibe with opaque black tights. I got lost on the ensemble when it came to the pairing of her nude patent oxford lace-up shoes and animal print clutch. Kaley further confused me with her really awkwardly messy half-pulled hairstyle.

Here are some snippets from a beautifully written article in the Guardian by Michaela Cole. I'll have to check out her series Chewing Gum!
All women are disadvantaged to varying degrees in our patriarchal society; and class, race, sexuality, disability and the number of those boxes you tick can make a staggering difference to your status in the creative industry. Having a disability, being trans or brown or female can often give you a distinct, culturally intriguing perspective on life – but it can also, ultimately, be a disadvantage (albeit a beautiful one). .
A report by the Ruderman Family Foundation found that "more than 95% of characters with disabilities are played by able-bodied actors on television". The academics Irena Grugulis and Dimitrinka Stoyanova found that women and people from ethnic minorities were underrepresented in UK film and TV. So if we can conclude that not being a white male might make things a little harder, being at a "disadvantage" in multiple ways (a gay, trans, Asian woman from a working-class background with a disability, for instance) will make things harder than having the singular setback of being able-bodied but from a working-class background.[…]I wondered whether it wasn't race but class that made me feel like a complete outsider, even though I was the first black female the school had had in five years. I'd been the "only black girl" so many times, but it had never felt quite like this: I'd never been the only working-class one.The differences between myself and my year, many of whom were friends, intrigued me, so I wrote and spoke about it. An emergency meeting was suddenly called. One day before lunch, I was given a tipoff by my gay, working-class mate that this covert operation had been in the making for a few days: "Beware, Michaela, this is an ambush: the sole subject of this meeting is you."My entire year gathered in a big circle – I sat in silence as they awkwardly revealed the intention behind it. It was explained to me that I'd caused offence by saying that I felt different because I was a working-class Londoner with immigrant parents. My female classmates bounced frantically between grief, panic and irritation: they didn't see class, so why should I?[…]Of course there are exceptions. I have wonderful, empathetic white girlfriends from wealthy backgrounds who are no longer comfortable defending solely their own causes. One of the girls who secretly orchestrated that "emergency meeting" at drama school privately apologised two years later. But to bring about real change a private apology is never enough – in fact, it's lame. The first expectation for a person of privilege should be that they speak especially to your equally privileged but ignorant friends.
Do you have an Amy Schumer in your life? Weed her out. Highlight your sensitivity and disappointment in her for partaking in the micro-aggressions and subtle forms of prejudice that are quietly poisoning the era of progress and equality in which we live. And those of us who are content creators have a duty to make room for those we know are less privileged than we are.

After an eight-year hiatus, Guided By Voices released three full-length albums in 2012, the latest dropping a mere two months ago (The Bears for Lunch). Not content to sit idly, the band has already announced the forthcoming release of a six-song EP titled Down by the Racetrack, due out Jan. 22. If that's not enough to satisfy the most persnickety GBV fan (and we all know the average attention span is comparable to the length of a GBV song), they have another full-length album, English Little League, expected this spring.
Listen to the fifth track off Down by the Racetrack below. "Copy Zero" puts us in familiar territory, with Robert Pollard waxing weird over a hypnotic drone; the whole thing is slightly convoluted, just as it should be.

Some of you may already know but one of my favorite quotes was taken from someone, perhaps famous, but I can't remember who...
Start where you are,
Do what you can and
Use what you have
That says so much right there about our business and our style. So in order to promote the use what you have line I'm all about reusing, recycling & GIVING generously. I'll start randomly showing stay at home
moms how to do things, create things, organize things, etc. I add the word randomly because I don't know what that looks like for me with 2 little ones, a husband, a decorating business, my art, our furniture projects, this party I'm planning and a small portion of my brain dedicated to the technical aspects of this technical world I'm making every attempt to keep up with through blog, website, and facebook. Anyone else have a lot on their plate...raise your hand. I know too many moms to count who have their plate just as full if not more than I do. Surround yourself with a strong support team. I'm still building mine right now. Pray in the people that will be part of that team...pray blessings on them, financial increase on them, healthy family life, peace & joy as well as LOVE! God will send you the right individuals who will help you shine & guess what...in the process YOU get to bless their hat crooked! You know what I mean by that...bless them SO much by a smile, a touch, a listening ear, a caring heart, a special gift and your loving words. God loves when you love on His sons & daughters.
So the question I have for you tonight is a question a dear friend from church asked me when I had just had Tiernan, How is your relationship with God? It was a tough question to be asked in the middle of the hustle & bustle of checking kids in, greeting friends that pass, and remembering diapers. I said it's good, I've been having great quality time with God. I mean, what do you say to that? No, I'm really not where I should be, could we talk? NO. I didn't even feel at the time that my walk with God wasn't close. I thought all was great. Now a couple years later I realize that was just the beginning. My walk with God is so much more than it has ever been. Its not just a "hallelujah I'm healed" kinda deal. It's the real deal & some days more than others honestly. Some days I get wrapped up in life then turn to God & ask Him His opinion of something. Other days I can sense Him walking with me & guiding through each conversation, decision and memory. The good news is I'm NEVER going back!!! I'm so happy to be walking through this life growing closer every day to God & my husband...each day brighter & brighter.
That all being said... ask yourself...just you, no one else around...
How is your relationship with God? Every relationship involves 2...are you seeking Him? Asking Him into every
moment of your life?
Proverbs 3:5-6 says
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart & lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct & make straight & plain your paths."
So trust in Him, inquire of Him. What does He want you to see today? What does He want you to do today? Do it...walk it out. He'll be there to guide & protect you. If you wonder where in the Bible to find that one check Psalm 32:8.
On a silly sidenote before I head back to my chair project...Marc ran a video of me on YouTube which I'm going to try to attach to my blog. He wasn't supposed to get my face & I forgot to address the camera to explain what I was doing. But ya know something... this isn't my regular thing. Sometimes I just need to figure something out & work it through. That's a whole other entry & since I don't think you can take it right now I'll have to save it for another day...remind me to tell about the process, how I work & why you'll have to excuse me as we take this journey together. Together...you, me and anyone else out there reading this quirky, long winded, random words on a page blog.

I must confess: the writing muse has abandoned me today. Or maybe I'm just feeling lazy. :P Whatever the cause, I'm rather stumped on ideas, so I thought I'd share some neat pictures of an interesting decade in fashion, the 1920's.
|Although it would look ridiculous in real life, it's an elegant drawing!
To be honest, the 1920's is not my favorite era, fashion or otherwise. On the surface, at least, it seems like everyone was abandoning all morals and tradition, carelessly wasting so much that they plunged the next generation/decade into financial ruin. Women's fashion of the 1920's really reflects the carefree, loose lifestyle.
|I have no idea why part of me likes this picture. I mean, it's... orange!
But it wasn't all so bad! So many people have the notion that all women wore back then were short, beaded, and tasseled dresses. (Downton Abbey viewers, of course, will know better than to think that!) Indeed, most women wore elegant evening dresses and everyday clothes that, although shorter and freer, were certainly not flapper-like! And look: I'll prove it!
I love the elegant petal-like layers on this one!
Everything here is so perfectly pink!
I normally wouldn't like this color scheme, but they work well with this floral motif.
|Non-flapper women having fun!
Do you enjoy any 1920's fashion?
Do you have a favorite vintage era?
Would you like me to cover some Downton Abbey fashion in the future?


text: I'll try to keep this short...... My hot water pressure relief valve is shot. The RV shop wants $33 for a new one. I found one at the local hardware store, same PSI and same Temp. range for $12.50, BUT. the temperature sensor rod is about 1 1/2" shorter than the original. The store owner says that it does not matter if it is shorter as long as it is in the water. But it cannot be longer. I do know that the length does seem to vary between 6 gal and 10 gal heaters. Does this sound right? I am going to try it this weekend and will try to update you all with any information. Just curious if anyone else has tried this. Thanks BB

Family Meal Prep 101
You need healthy, quality meals to fuel you and your family, but with a busy job, kids' after-school activities, household chores and life, you find yourself resorting to fast food or bowls of cereal far too often.
Let meal prep be your savior. Meal prep can involve making full dinners and lunches that you refrigerate or freeze, or may mean you get a lot of ingredients chopped and on the ready, so meals take just minutes to whip up.
The process takes a little planning – but it's so worth it.
Get the Right Equipment
Aimee Monck, Group Fitness Department Head at Life Time Fitness in Colorado Springs, who in addition to her own unpredictable job schedule, is a mom of four kids that participate in swimming, soccer, volleyball and basketball. When you add to that a hungry, busy husband, meal prepping is an absolute must because eating well is important to her job and the health of her family.
Her most valuable equipment for meal prep includes cutting boards, sharp knives, freezer bags, Tupperware, foil pans and sharpies for labeling. Storing food in freezer bags makes it "easy to maneuver for storage in the freezer," she notes. Use the sharpie to mark what's in the bag, date made and cooking instructions. This way, no mystery meals get thrown away.
Take Stock and Shop
Once you have your equipment, carefully examine your pantry and consider the recipes you plan to make. Take into account the family's schedule too – who has practice what night so you know when it'll be most tricky to get dinner on the table. Aimee figures out her family's meals anywhere from two to four weeks in advance.
Then, create your grocery list and organize it by store area. Have a column for produce, dry goods, dairy and meats/protein. This makes your trip efficient and comprehensive, and saves precious time for prepping and cooking later.
Then, get shopping; nothing interferes with meal prep more than having no ingredients to prep
Chop It Up
One of the most time-consuming aspects of preparing healthy, delicious meals is the washing and chopping of fresh produce.
Tear leaves of lettuce into bite-sized pieces, dry them and then pack them in a storage container or freezer bag with a paper towel so you'll have salad ingredients at the ready. Dice onions, celery and carrots for stews. Julienne carrots, zucchini and snow peas for stir fry. Aimee portions out and labels vegetables and fruits for snacks, too.
Make Enough to Freeze
Make entire entrees, one of which you can eat on meal prep night and the other of which you can freeze for a week or two. A vegetable lasagna or beef stew are great freezable options. You can even portion out the entrees so they're super easy to defrost for a single meal.
Also consider freezing key parts of meals. For example, brown rice is a healthy alternative to white, but it's time consuming to make. Make a large batch on Sunday afternoon and portion into smaller storage containers that you can pull out and quickly reheat in the microwave. Top the rice with a quick stir fry – made with your pre-chopped vegetables and diced raw chicken breast – and you've got a meal on the table in minutes. Tomato-based pasta sauces and homemade pizza dough are other easy-to-prep-and-freeze meal components.
Aimee likes to use ground turkey meat and "brown it a pound at a time, season it for tacos and then store for easy thawing." Ground turkey tacos are her favorite meal prep go-to.
The Crockpot is Your Friend
Sometimes, meal prep begins in the morning, not several days in advance. Pile all the ingredients for a stew or soup in a slow cooker at breakfast time, and let it do the work for you.
You'll find slow cooker meals especially helpful when sports practice, dance lessons, meetings or evening work means your family must eat in waves. Each person can serve himself when time permits and last person home puts away the leftovers for lunch the next day.

The TIM gene family was identified using a congenic mouse model in which polymorphisms in TIM-1 and TIM-3 wre associated with Th1-Th2 differentiation and allergen-induced ainway hyperreactivity (AHR) between BALB/c and congenic HBA mice. The long-term goals of Project 3 are to understand how the Tim genes regulate peripheral tolerance, adaptive immune responses, and allergy. In the previous grant period we showed that TIM-1 is an important costimulatory molecule for T cells, that TIM-1 and TIM-4 modulate T cell responses and the development of tolerance, and that TIM-1 and TIM-4 are receptors for phosphatidylserine (PtdSer), a key molecule for recognition and uptake of apoptotic cells. We have found that TIM-3, expressed on Th1 cells and APC, is also a receptor for PtdSer and that the allelic variants of TIM-3 associated with asthma differ in their recognition of PtdSer. These results together suggest a new paradigm for TIM proteins as PtdSer receptors that by regulating the recognition and clearance of apoptotic cells, can regulate tissue homeostasis, T cell responses and the induction of peripheral tolerance.
In Specific Aim 1 we will determine the mechanisms by which TIM-4 expressed on APC, and TIM-1, expressed on activated T cells and Th2 cells, regulate oral tolerance and prevent food allergy. We will examine mechanisms by which TIM-4 blockade inhibits oral tolerance induction.
In Specific Aim 2, we will characterize the cell types and APC subset(s) in the lamina propria and mesenteric lymph node that express TIM-4, the conditions that modulate expression of TIM-3 and TIM-4 following exposure to danger signals such as bacterial products that initiate food allergy. We will examine the consequences of T cell interaction with TIM-expressing APC on T cell subset differentiation.
In Specific Aim 3 we will investigate the role of TIM-3 polymorphic variants, which we have recently shown differ in recognition of apoptotic cells, in modulation of immune responses in BALB/c and HBA mice, and determine the roles of TIM-1 and TIM-3 in modulating the development of airway hyperreactivity in these strains. We have developed unique reagents that will enable us to accomplish these goals. We have generated panels of anti-TIM-1 and TIM-4 mAbs, we have generated TIM-4 and TIM-1 transgenic mice, and TlM-1 deficient mice are now breeding in our colony. Our laboratory has extensive experience in the study of tolerance as a mechanism that protects against Th2-driven immune responses and in the study of dendritic cells (DCs) and antigen-specific CD4+ T Reg cells. These studies will greatly improve our understanding of immune regulation and lead to new therapies for inflammatory diseases.
The TIM genes have been shown to be important disease susceptibility genes (asthma, allergy, atopic dermatitis, rheumatoid arthritis) and to potently regulate immune responses and peripheral tolerance. Asthma and allergy (atopic diseases) affect up to 40% of the general population, and are major public health problems with limited therapies. We believe that further study of these molecules will greatly improve our understanding of disease mechanisms, and are likely to lead to novel therapies for asthma and food allergy.
