Our Internet overlords over at Google Search Console have begun sending out warnings to sites that have not yet migrated to HTTPS.
Beginning October 2017, your website will receive a warning if your non-secure pages contain password or credit card input fields. The warning will be in the form of a "Not Secure" red alert in your URL bar, like so:
Google Chrome version 61 is in beta, and this warning will become commonplace in version 62. Websites with insecure HTTP connections will be labeled to warn users that their passwords and credit card data may be compromised. All HTTP pages in Google Chrome incognito mode will trigger the warning.
SSL for HTTPS
E-commerce websites without an authorized SSL certificate will be in jeopardy of having customers turn away from their online business.
This will affect a wide chunk of the internet, including many popular sites. A recent Google transparency report revealed that 79 of the top 100 websites still don't deploy HTTPS. As you can see, since that report last year, many have made the switch.
HTTPS is a secure encryption that layers HTTP on top of cryptographic protocol Secure Sockets Layers (SSL), which supplies additional security to standard HTTP communications. SSL certificates are necessary for e-commerce sites, because of the secure transmission of sensitive information like credit card numbers, personal information, and login accounts.
Online merchants have a responsibility to make sure no one can access and misuse your customers' private information. If you are storing credit card information in a database on your website so you can manually charge it later, then you need an SSL certificate to secure the credit card data stored on your server. If your business has any sort of log-in form where customers enter a username and password, then get an SSL certificate.
Buy SSL Certificates from CorelloHosting
Luckily your pal HostDime is here so your customers will never see a warning on your page. HostDime has partnered with Comodo for SSL certificates starting at only $30.
The Comodo SSL certificates include domains validated, quick issuance, unlimited re-issues, 30-day refund, $10,000 warranty, 99.3% browser compatibility, and 128/256 bit Encryption.
For a comprehensive list of differences between the different types of SSL certificates, follow this guide.
If you are a current CorelloHosting client, you can utilize this Resource Guide to order SSLs within CX Panel directly.

This pork recipe with linguine easily doubles to feed a crowd or to provide leftovers. Try making this family-style dish next time you're craving Italian flavors.
How to Make It
Prepare linguine according to package directions; drain. Toss with butter. Set aside, and keep warm.
Place pork between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and flatten to 1/4-inch thickness, using a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat mallet.
Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge pork in flour mixture, dip in beaten egg, and dredge in breadcrumbs.
Sauté pork, in batches, in hot oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat 2 minutes on each side or until golden. Arrange pork in a single layer in a 13- x 9-inch baking dish.
Stir 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh basil into pasta sauce. Top pork evenly with pasta sauce, 2 cups mozzarella cheese, and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese.
Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and lightly browned. Garnish, if desired. Serve immediately with hot buttered linguine.

Most all of us have spent the better part of the past ten years trying to re-wire our psychic and spiritual GPS systems after they were blown apart on September 11, 2001. The mix of shock, fear, anger -- and grief, has had a hammerlock on our national psyche for nearly a decade.
That grip has eased somewhat and our emotional tracking devices are in better working order after hearing the news of Osama bin Laden's death. The feelings that have emerged from this news are very different from those of ten years ago. We feel safer. There is a sense of relief -- and the satisfaction that some justice has been served.
And there has been rejoicing. I haven't heard news reports of people singing, "Ding dong, the witch is dead," from the Wizard of Oz, but I wouldn't be surprised to learn that people danced and sang it on the streets somewhere. For much of the world, bin Laden has been the embodiment of the wicked witch. And now he is gone.
The sense of safety and relief is understandable -- and human. So is the desire to rejoice -- given the vortex we have been through.
But the rejoicing expressed in the past two days has parallels in the same emotion we all felt as kids watching TV or a movie when the good guys came over the hill and wasted the bad guys. There was satisfaction, yes -- and it was real and raw. But it was not rejoicing. It was vengeance.
Justice is one thing. We need to exact justice. We need to hold people accountable -- which has been the driving concern in the operation that concluded on Sunday. Vengeance is something else. Justice may sometimes involve violence; vengeance is always directed by violence -- of one sort or another. And the desire for vengeance lies close to the surface in everyone.
Jesus understood vengeance. He saw it. He was the recipient of it. And he refused to engage in it -- because he knew that the desire for vengeance can eclipse the challenge of justice. Over and over again Jesus stood up to violence nonviolently. He repeatedly called for justice; and while he may have felt the need for vengeance, he never acted on it.
So -- in the swirl of all our emotions and reactions, and the ongoing national commitment to rooting out the scourge of terrorism, it is helpful -- if not necessary, to hearken to Jesus' commitment to justice. Especially in a world that increasingly tempts us to learn the dance steps of vengeance.

She has a penchant for pastels, is covered in unexpected ink, possesses this studied, yet entirely new take on street style and has a mean outerwear (and shoe!) game. We're also willing to bet you've spotted her (likely due to her one-time lavender ombre'd locks) during a sartorially-existential ("I need to throw out everything in my closet, like, immediately") Pinterest deep dive or two. Oh, and chances are you have the same name popping up on your most-recently-searched toolbar, too. Don't believe us? As the Italian blogger, concept-storeowner and street style impressario told us herself, "The last thing I Googled? Eleonora Carisi, clearly."
We first met up with Carisi at the height of New York Fashion Week, where, after a day spent being chased by the street style-razzi, she welcomed us into her suite at the Mondrian SoHo. As expected, the stash Carisi had flown in with from Turin didn't exactly disappoint: from a printed midi-length Suno frock and classic black Nike kicks to her chain-link CHANEL booties, bejeweled velvet Miu Miu loafers and an Anna Dello Russo-worthy stash of sunnies, we watched with increasing amazement as she pulled each piece she pulled out of her suitcase. As it turns out, Carisi's notorious fixation with softly hued shades extends to her wardrobe, too—we swear she pretty much pioneered the whole petal pink preoccupation that's been dominating runways as of late. Just take a peek at her pastel Moschino coat, throwback satin Prada sandals or bubblegum Alexander Wang pumps if you really need further proof.
If there's one thing that influences Carisi's sartorial identity the most, though, it's her heritage. As she told us via a distinctly Italian analogy, "Italian fashion stands out thanks to its chic taste and elegance with a special inclination for the quality of fabrics and materials. Another strong point is the research of details and Italian manpower. Just add a smidgen of typical Southern chili pepper and here it is! Just as good and unique as a plate of spaghetti with tomato sauce." Or, alternately, the two women she most admires sartorially. After some careful consideration: "Anna Dello Russo and Anna Piaggi." Told you so.

With France under constant bombardment in the Revolutionary Wars as seemingly all of the European Crowns turned against the upstart Republic, General Napoleon Bonaparte launched his Egyptian campaign of 1789 in an effort to put pressure on India and, hopefully, draw Britain out of the war. His fleet sailed south disguising its agenda, conquering Malta and moving rapidly toward its final destination of Alexandria. While the fleet under Admiral François-Paul Brueys d'Aigalliers anchored in Aboukir Bay, Napoleon began his conquest with his land armies. Brueys supported Napoleon with naval bombardments, but by July 27 Napoleon was eager for the admiral to move on to better harbors. He dispatched a courier to Brueys ordering him to move to Corfu in Greece to prepare for campaigns against the Ottomans.
While tactically indecisive itself, the battle would be proclaimed a French victory. Without many harbors to support them, the British fleet would retreat out of the Mediterranean. Worse, the brave Admiral Nelson would be mortally wounded, struck down by French snipers from the rigging. The battered French fleet would regroup with other ships, building up the force that would later destroy the Ottoman navy and establish French dominance over the Mediterranean.
Napoleon, using easy supply trains across Mediterranean waters, conquered Egypt and moved northward through Judea and Syria. In 1800, he marched on Asia Minor, beginning a string of battles that would finally dethrone the Ottoman Sultan and break the empire into small protectorates of France. In 1802, Britain had hopes of establishing a Second Coalition with Austria, but the Austrian emperors, now free to dominate the Balkans, joined with their former enemies, the French.
Meanwhile, Napoleon continued east through Persia. Many began to fear his egotism as he spoke of himself as the new Alexander, but his victories could not be dismissed. Some called for his return to France, but Napoleon felt confident to press to India, just as his militaristic predecessor had done some two thousand years before.
Britain continued the war alone for three years, but as Napoleon conquered the Indus and headed toward lower India, they sued for peace. At the Treaty of Trafalgar in 1805, establishing in writing the French dominance of the Mediterranean that had been maintained by battle for years, the war came to an end. Napoleon seemed ravenous for more conquest, and the government feared he would turn on France itself. Instead, they sent him on a sort of exile to be the military governor of the huge tract Louisiana in North America, newly won back from the Spanish in the Third Treaty of San Ildefonso.
Napoleon would solidify his command in New Orleans and launch expeditions of exploration and settlement into the countryside. Friction would build between the French and the Americans, who, under President Thomas Jefferson, had purchased shipping rights in the Mississippi as a shared border. Finally, in 1812, war would be declared as Indians in Tecumseh's War were believed by Americans to be supplied by Napoleon.
The frontier war was brutal, and the naval battles in the Gulf and Caribbean devastated both countries' western Atlantic fleets. Napoleon knew he did not have enough troops for a wide front, so he decided to build up a Grande Armée and march up the Ohio River Valley with the final goal of Washington, D.C. The gamble would prove a blunder as American civilians and soldiers alike would plague the French with snipers and guerrilla combat. Before his planned crossing of the Appalachians (perhaps to match another hero, Hannibal), Napoleon decided to turn back.
The final battle of the War of 1812 was near New Orleans, where Col. Andrew Jackson marched to take the nearly unguarded capital. Napoleon raced back, rallied his men, and counterattacked in another gamble that would fail as Jackson's troops hid behind wagons and trees (fighting "without honor" as Americans were known to do). Artillery seemingly disintegrated the American force, but the stalwart frontiersmen slipped behind the French and captured Napoleon in his command tent.
The war ended with the Treaty of New Orleans, where France would surrender its Louisiana colony and Americans pay reparations for property and life lost to a total of 78 million francs (15 million dollars). The embarrassed Napoleon would be sent to Haiti as governor without arms, and he would die in 1821, some say of a broken heart.
In reality, the courier sent to Admiral Brueys would be slain by Bedouin, never to arrive. The French fleet was anchored still in Aboukir Bay, hoping to be protected by shoals and forts, but the daring Nelson maneuvered to catch them in a devastating crossfire. Without his fleet, Napoleon's Egyptian Campaign would eventually crumble, but not before he would return to France to begin a career giving up colonial conquests and instead building an empire from Europe itself.

August 1, 1789 – French Rout English Fleet at Alexandria

Did you mean to place this in 1799, when the actual Battle of the Nile took place? On 1 August 1789, the Revolution was a mere two weeks old and war with Britain was still three years away - Nelson was still a captain on half-pay at home in Norfolk and Napoleon was a junior officer in Corsica.ReplyDelete
Yes, 1799. Thanks for the catch!ReplyDelete
Warfare is a fascinating subject. Despite the dubious morality of using violence to achieve personal or political aims. It remains that conflict has been used to do just that throughout recorded history.ReplyDelete
Your article is very well done, a good read.

Been busy this week? Unable to keep yourself up to date with the fashion chit-chat? Fear not... That's what i'm here for!
|Pippa style at Debenhams
*It's the most recognised little luxury packaging in the world- it's every woman's desire to stumble upon a little flash of Tiffany turquoise in her boyfriend's pocket. Tiffany blue is iconic- and it's all theirs. This week, they threw their weight behind Christian Louboutin in his appeal against a court ruling stating that he could not trademark his synonymous scarlet soles- and that YSL had every right to use red on their soles. The verdict, due in January, could be massively benefited by support from Tiffany, but whose side are you on?
|Grace Kelly by
Clarence Sinclair Bull
*The recent 'Glamour of the Gods' exhibition on at the NPG brought to light the decadence and beauty of old Hollywood glamour, and seems to have kickstarted a wave of nostalgia- while also creating a certain nosiness with regard to the private lives of the stars of the screen, or, as John Kobal thought of them, the gods and goddesses. As mentioned in last weeks FFB, there is a new Marilyn Monroe biopic set to hit cinemas, and now there are plans for a movie about the endearing Grace Kelly. Scripted by Arash Amelhaving, it is supposedly set to be "similar to the Kings Speech in scope and tone" and give an insight into Princes Grace's life in her years as a film star. But who should star? Comment your thoughts below!
|aleXandro Palombo
*The other Karl news? Well if you long to have a little piece of Lagerfeld in your wardrobe- and your relationship with Chanel is very much look-but-can't-afford-to-touch, then this news may make your week that little bit brighter. Karl is set to launch an accessible line called- wait for it- "Karl" on net-a-porter with prices starting at around £50. Would you buy into a more mainstream Lagerfeld-fix? I think I may just wait till I can get the real deal... Fifty years saving should do it?
*We all know about my thoughts on celebrity fashion ranges, and this weeks fashion news has once again been peppered with stories about celebs putting on their designing shoes. Firstly, Dita Von Teese has revealed plans to follow up her celebrated lingerie line with a fashion range with David Jones. It is set to go on sale first in Sydney, then should hit our shores late November. Available in size 8-20, she obviously is going for a retro glamour- but will it be a success? Who knows! But I doubt it'll be anywhere near as profitable as the divine Mrs Beckham's ventures which, it was revealed this week, are on track to make around £60 million from her fashion ranges alone (up 70% in the same period last year!) Kudos to VB.
*There's going to be no space left on your coffee table at this rate! Everyone from Terry Richardson to Louboutin are churning out glossy volumes to take pride of place on your coffee table, and the latest to follow suit are Christian Dior. In the new book "Dior Couture Patrick Demarchelier", esteemed photographer Demarchelier captures an array of supermodels in the Parisian house's finest couture from the archives. He states "when you're a fashion photographer you must inspire a dream... With Dior Haute Couture, the dream is already there".
Just also wanted to note: please keep voting in the Westfield blogger competition- I would love to get more people reading my blog, even if I do not win! I would also like to thank all of you who actually voted for me- and it means a lot to me!

There is a wonderful line in the 1998 movie Ever After when the Prince Henry, as he reflects upon his responsibilities as future king, says something to the effect "But if I care about one thing, I'll have to care about everything…" It is a line that continues to resonate with me, years after first hearing it. The mind that connects an entire universe to the fluttering of a butterfly's wings knows that engaging in that one thing may not be as simple as it appears.
I ponder if sometimes "I'm bored," is not so much a statement of one's state of mind as putting off or pondering which universe to dive into.The one you can manage? The one that will feed your soul? The one that might just swallow you whole? Or the one that won't lead you into what can become inevitable burn out as you attempt to explore it in its entirety? When this universe jumping is coupled with a deep sense of caring, careful consideration is crucial or burnout is inevitable.
As I get older, I find I can distinguish between them a little better but that was not always the case. Plus, it can be hard to make any kind of decision, let alone the right one, if I get distracted. And there are a LOT of distractions.
So perhaps being bored, is not such a bad thing, especially when there are options to consider. Sometimes the distractions can help us find our way but I am always surprised where my and my children's explorations will take us when we get the chance to be bored and aren't focused on keeping ourselves distracted. Summer is a great time to "let go" and occasionally get bored as well as distracted but by the time it ends, we tend to get a better idea of what thing will not only connect us to everything, but feed our soul and perhaps not swallow us whole. (*Spoiler Alert: by the end of the movie Prince Henry is building a university and fraternizing with gypsies…)

Chesterton Tribune
Evans wants to see structural changes on Gary Chicago airport board
By JEFF SCHULTZ
Porter County Commissioner President John Evans, R-North, couldn't hold his
tongue any longer about the way things are on the Gary/Chicago Airport
As the commissioners named their nomination for the seven-member regional
board at the start of Tuesday's Commissioner meeting, Evans said he has
always been "displeased" by way the board is structured with the City of
Gary holding the majority of the power while the airport is supported by a
variety of NWI entities through the Northwest Indiana Regional Development
As Evans explained, the commissioners get to choose one representative to
the board. The Lake County Commissioners also get to appoint one member and
so does the Indiana Governor's office. The Mayor of Gary however is allowed
four representatives.
Since Gary has been behind on its annual $3.5 million in payments to the
RDA, Evans said he believes the board's structure should be looked at and
"made fair to the people that do pay their RDA dues."
Evans nominated Nicole Thorn to be the County's pick which met with the
approval of fellow County Commissioners Nancy Adams, R-Center, and Laura
Shurr Blaney, D-South.
Thorn had been the finance manager for the airport until last year and now
works as a CPA in Portage, Evans said.
Evans, who has sat on the board previously, expressed his confidence that
Thorn will work to the best of her ability for Porter County residents.
"She is the kind of person Porter County needs to see what's going on
there," said Evans.
Planner term
limit adjusted
In another matter, the commissioners adjusted David Collins' term on the
nine-member plan commission from four years to three years to "get it back
on the right track" with the other plan appointments by the commissioners.
Plan Commission Executive Director Robert Thompson said the matter goes back
to 2000 when state statute said county commissioners had to make five
appointments, four were to be citizens but one had to be a township trustee.
Due to objections from commissioners around the state, the state changed the
policy the next year to reflect that trustees no longer need to be
represented. The county commissioners then in 2001 appointed a new member,
Mike Bucko, to a new four-year term.
Bucko was succeeded by Elizabeth Marshall in 2005 who was reappointed to a
second four-year term but resigned in January 2012 almost a year before that
term ended. After applications were taken, the Commissioners appointed
Collins last February.
Thompson said the term schedule for this particular seat still has not been
corrected. To fix the matter, all three commissioners said yes to having
Collins carry over to a three-year term starting this month instead of
beginning a new four-year term, therefore getting back to the original cycle
when the seat becomes available again at the end of 2015.
With the adjustment, Thompson said the Commissioners will now have one new
appointment to make every year.
Retiree honored
On the 45th anniversary of joining the county health department, the
Commissioners passed a resolution to thank Valparaiso resident Joann Donlin
for her "relentless dedication" and service as the department's vital
records officer.
Donlin, who will retire later this year, thanked the commissioners for the
honor and her many colleagues. She said she recalls starting when the health
department was located at the intersection of Lincolnway and Westin in
Valparaiso which was later moved to the former Porter County Jail building
and then to Calumet Ave. before ending up on the bottom floor of the county
administration building.
Evans said Donlin has been responsible for statistics and records and
performed all accounting procedures for the health department. "I don't know
how they are going to get along without you."
Union Twp.
school referendum
Evans announced that there will be a special election in the county this
year. Having received approval from the County Clerk's office this week, the
Union Twp. School District will ask its voters on May 7 to raise their
property taxes by 22 cents per $100 of assessed valuation to cover
shortfalls in school budgets, similar to the Duneland Schools referendum
last year.
If anyone else wishes to include something on the ballot, now is the time to
do so, Evans said.
In other business:
• The Commissioners approved an amendment to the agreement with health
benefits administrator Stewart C. Miller. The agreement states that the
County will pay for printing and postage of health ID cards for county
employees mailed out in mass quantity while the administrator agrees to pay
for printing and postage of member ID weekly requests.
• More emergency repairs to the Memorial Opera House will be made. This
time, inspections and repairs to the exterior masonry will be done for a
price of $5,000 with CCD funds. The work will be done by Wiss, Janney,
Elstner Associates Inc., of Northbrook, Ill.
• Evans said he is working with a group of County Council members on a
comprehensive plan for future spending, adding that communication is taking
place. "We will continue to work towards that avenue," Evans said.

Chancellor of the National Orders Cassius Lubisi announced the list on Monday.
"It is usual at this time of the year that the president of the Republic of South Africa bestows the highest accolades upon citizens and members of the international community who have made extraordinary contributions to our country and the world," he said in a statement.
The orders comprise the Order of Mendi for Bravery, the Order of Ikhamanga, the Order of the Baobab, the Order of Luthuli, the Order of Mapungubwe and the Order of the Companions of OR Tambo.
Neil John Sharrocks would be awarded the silver Order of Mendi after he helped save the lives of 44 children who nearly drowned when their bus fell into a river in Knysna in 2011.
Michael Janse van Rensburg would win a posthumous gold order after he drowned while saving a 14-year-old boy from also drowning in Klerksdorp in 2010.
Local dancer and choreographer Gladys Faith Agulhas, musician Johnny Clegg, author and playwright Muthal Naidoo, journalist Joseph Nong Thloloe and former rugby player and activist Daniel "Cheeky" Watson would be awarded the silver Order of Ikhamanga.
The gold order would go to musician Julian Sebothane Bahula.
Renowned pilot Selwyn "Scully" Levin, activist Gladys Ramahuta and entrepreneur Zane Maureen Wilson would receive the bronze Order of the Baobab.
Engineering professor Daniel Gerhardus Krige and the late Reverend Fenner Christian Kadalie would receive silver.
Law professor Christopher John Robert Dugard and police officers Frank Kennan Dutton and the late Lwandle Wilson Magadla would all be awarded gold orders.
The Order of Luthuli recipients were all posthumous and consisted of syndicalist John Stephen Gomas, activist Elizabeth Sophia Honman (Bettie du Toit) and former ANCYL president and MP Peter Ramoshoane Mokaba for silver.
Former ANC presidents Josiah Tshangana Gumede, James Sebe Moroka, Alfred Bitini Xuma, Zaccheus Richard Mahabane and Sefako Mapogo Makgatho would receive gold orders.
Dr Patience Mthunzi would be awarded the bronze Order of Mapungubwe and virology professor Barry David Schoub, the silver.
Former ANC presidents Albert Mvumbi Luthuli and Oliver Reginald Tambo would receive the platinum order.
The Order of the Companions of OR Tambo silver would be awarded to Professor Apollon Davidson and Randall Robinson.
A gold order would be made to deceased United States politician Edward Moore Kennedy, the youngest brother of assassinated US president John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
The National Orders take place on April 27, as a way of commemorating the first democratic elections held in South Africa in 1994.

Those of us with large music libraries know how much of a pain it can be to choose what to listen to. Sometimes there's no time to make a decent playlist; other times you simply don't even know where to start. While the basic music app on the iPhone is efficient and easily sorts your music, it doesn't do a good job presenting your music to you when you don't know what to listen to.
However, in all the areas the default music app is lacking, Groove 2 shines. Featuring intuitive gesture controls and a robust playlist generator, it's an excellent choice for any music enthusiast.
The Homescreen
Open up Groove 2 and you'll notice things look radically different from most music players. Instead of an abundance of text and lists, there is album artwork and photos of your favorite artists displayed throughout the screen. Up top is a spotlight, which includes an assortment of your favorite albums, artists and genres.
In the middle of the screen there is a dividing row with four buttons for creating a playlist. Powered by the massive music database Last.fm, Groove 2's playlist generator automatically creates playlists filled with appropriate songs. Instead of randomly shuffling songs together, it chooses songs that work well together, like those in the same genre or by similar artists.
The four buttons will allow you to customize what kind of playlist is created: "Groovy Mix" creates a mash of songs that fit well together, "Surprise Me" will create a playlist with songs you haven't listened to in a while, "Favorites" will make a playlist based on your most preferred type of music and "Three of a Kind" will form a playlist with three songs by the same artist followed by another three from a different artist and so on.
The Sidebar
Hitting the icon in the top left makes the navigational sidebar slide out from the left. A set of well-designed monochrome icons sit next to the labels so it's easy to recognize what means what. Besides the Home icon, there are four other categories into which your music is organized. Artists and albums are self-explanatory; Tags leads to a page where your music is divided by distinctive features like "orchestral," "indie," or "'90s." Playlists shows all your self-created playlists but will also display any automatically created playlists that you chose to save.
"Tutorial" will lead you through a simple guide that'll show you how to use Groove 2 and its many gestures. "Settings" includes options to link your Facebook or Last.fm account for social sharing, the ability to toggle iTunes Match on or off, and what action to take when you shake your iOS device.
The Artist Page
The Artist page allows you to quickly browse through all of the music you have by any particular artist. In addition to showing all albums and tracks by the artist, the page also shows an excellent profile picture of the band and a excerpt of their biography — pressing the text will lead you to a full bio.
There are also quick commands for playing the all the artist's music that you currently have in your library, play your favorite songs by the artists, or generate a playlist based on the particular artist's type of sound.
Gesture-Based Controls
Groove 2's music controls are largely gesture-based. This means that there's a whole lot less tapping and a whole lot more swiping, which is incredibly useful when you can't afford to look at your iPhone.
Swiping horizontally skips the track forwards or backwards, dragging up or down changes the volume, and swiping with two fingers to the left will create a random matching playlist. Of course, there are still basic buttons and a volume slider for those who prefer them, as well as the ability to share any song on Facebook, Twitter or by email.
Groove 2 excels at making awesome playlists; in many ways, it's what I wish Genius was for the default music app. It's fast, simple and pain-free. The app organizes your library, accurately tags it and even adds album artwork for tracks with missing images. However, Groove 2 isn't good at everything. While it's good at playlist creation, it's not as fast to use when you want to choose what artist or album to listen to. Also, navigating via the sidebar is quite a bit slower than simply having a tab bar with buttons like the default music app.
All in all, whether Groove 2 is worth $3.99 is up to you. It performs its advertised function incredibly well, so if you're looking for a comprehensive playlist creator, you'll love it. Nonetheless, if you prefer listening to albums as a whole or choosing what song you want to listen to, then it's probably not the app for you.

They Think We Control The Weather By Using Less Electricity/
Meteorologist Art Horn, writing at ICECAP, has a collection of quotes from political leaders who have somehow convinced themselves that we can control the weather by using less electricity or driving less or otherwise restricting our lives.
President Obama (at the 2012 Democratic convention):
More droughts and floods and wildfires are not a joke. They're a threat to our children's future. And in this election you can do something about it.
Secretary General Ban Ki-moon of the United Nations: on November 12, 2012:
Finally, let me say we all know the difficulties in attributing any single storm to climate change. But we also know this: extreme weather due to climate change is the new normal. This may be an uncomfortable truth, but it is one we ignore at our peril.
Even Mayor Bloomberg of New York (on November 1):
Our climate is changing. And while the increase in extreme weather we have experienced in New York City and around the world may not be the result of it, the risk that it might be, given this weeks devastation, should compel all elected leaders to take immediate action.
Here's the key paragraph of Horn's article at ICECAP:
In all of the above statements the implied or stated method for controlling the weather is to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide. The thinking, if you want to call it that, is this. Reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air from 0.04% of the atmosphere to some arbitrary amount, say 0.03% or the level at the beginning of the industrial revolution in 1850, will somehow bring the weather back to "normal". This reduction would be a whopping 0.01%. They have no idea how this reduction will actually change the weather back to how it should behave but they are sure it will work. They are so sure that they believe we should dismantle everything that has provided us with reliable, affordable energy up to this point and try something new. The EPA is already working hard to close the coal companies
Well, it's not just Obama, Ban and Bloomberg. The list of those in power who believe that we can control the weather by restricting human activity would appear to include almost all European heads of state (Vaclav Klaus of the Czech Republic has been an exception), and in the U.S., not only the EPA, but also the Supreme Court (see Massachusetts v. EPA).
How's the evidence for that going? From wattsupwiththat today:
A problem: nearly one third of CO2 emissions occurred since 1998, and it hasn't warmed
Here's the chart of temperatures since 1979 (from satellites, as compiled by Remote Sensing Systems available at climate4you):
Anybody can see that the peak was in 1998 and that it's downhill from there. I thought in science you make a hypothesis, and then if the evidence contradicts the hypothesis you must abandon it. At what point must we declare this hypothesis disproved? Anyway, our politicians don't seem to think that evidence has anything to do with the question.

*teleports readers to the interview*
The wondertwin powers of Marketing and PR have saved the day!
Maybe the Wondertwins isn't the best analogy out there for Marketing and PR . . . I'd hate to make either Ben or Fred have to arm wrestle over who gets to be Jayna. (oh snap! Just kidding Fred and Ben!) Now, Gleek, GO! FETCH US THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM THAT ARTICLE!
*snip* There will be new pet content. There will be new pets that are being released as a part of this, there will also be new talents we're going to release as a part of this. Part of the pet system is the new talents that manifest and we have new talents that are being released as part of the expansion. *end of snip*
YES! There will be new pets and new talents to go along with those pets. That, my friends, is new information. Me likes!
*snip*What I can say is that with any level cap increase, there is always the challenge of ensuring that the balance of the game in PvP remains intact. I know that is a challenge, but I don't know if its necessarily more of a challenge for us than any other game that has gone through a level cap increase. *end of snip*
The balance of PvP is being considered with the level cap. That should make a lot of people happy.
Thanks for the great interview Fred and Ben! And thanks MMOCrunch for the great questions!
Happy Dueling!

The continued success of London's booming prime property market meant a good year for Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor. The U.K.'s wealthiest landowner, also known as the 6th Duke of Westminster, saw his fortune rise $400 million this past year along with the value of real estate in Belgravia, London's most expensive neighborhood, where his family trust owns 190 acres (and where homes can sell for $150 million). His private Grosvenor Group separately owns real estate on five continents and reports just under $20 billion in assets under management. His family also has 96,000 acres in Scotland, 32,000 acres in Spain and thousands elsewhere in England.

This gluten-free muhammara is a tasty, low fat Middle Eastern dip that's filled with tangy and sweet flavors. Perfect for snacking or for gatherings!
Food has the power to unite people, families and communities.
– Jamie Oliver
One of the big reasons why I love cooking is because it is my window into another culture. I may not be fortunate enough to travel everywhere on my bucket list, but at the very least, I can get a sense of another country, of another society, through food.
In light of current events, I picked up the #CookForSyria Recipe Book (thanks to Lily's recommendation). My goal was very simple: to learn more about a country that is often discussed in the media, but whose culture we often misunderstand. The cookbook is a collection of recipes that are created by top British chefs and influencers and inspired by Syrian cuisine. Page after page, the book is filled with mouthwatering recipes. The best part of the book is that all the proceeds go to UNICEF's humanitarian efforts in Syria!
As I flipped through the cookbook, Yotam Ottolenghi's muhammara caught my eye. It was one of my favorite dips that I bought at the San Mateo farmer's market, back when I still lived in the Bay Area. I made a few modifications to the original recipe, the biggest one being the preparation method. Ottolenghi's recipe instructed me to pound the bell peppers into a paste with a pestle and mortar, and I definitely did not have the patience for that! The food processor does a wonderful job at blending all the ingredients, so let's just leave it at that. I also thought that the dip could use a little more tanginess, so I added a splash of balsamic vinegar to the dip.
I have enjoyed the muhammara as a snack with carrots and crackers and used it as a paste to flavor leftover cooked millet. The dip is incredibly versatile!
- Roasting the bell peppers: You will need a gas oven in order to roast the peppers in the oven so that the skin blackens. I've tried roasting them in an electric oven before and it didn't work, even after I stuck everything under the broiler. If you can't roast bell peppers easily, I recommend buying jarred roasted bell peppers. You'll need about 1 1/2 cups of it.
- Substitutions: The original recipe uses a few ingredients that are no easy to find at a standard grocery store. One of them is pomegranate molasses. You can follow my recipe to make your own or you can substitute the molasses with 2 teaspoons of honey and 2 teaspoons of balsamic vinegar (in addition to the balsamic vinegar that's already in the recipe). Another difficult-to-find ingredient is aleppo pepper. I used 1/2 tablespoon of red pepper flakes instead and it tasted great. You can add more pepper flakes if you want more heat.
- Glass bowl
- Food processor: If you are looking to buy a food processor, I highly recommend buying this one. It's not the cheapest on the market, but it has a lot of power and it doesn't break down easily. You can certainly find larger food processors, but this one stores neatly in my cabinet. Besides, you don't want food processors that are too large because they won't be able to blend smaller quantities of food as well.
Muhammara (Syrian Red Pepper Dip)
This muhammara is great as a dip or served with rice or your favorite grains. I also like smearing it inside my sandwiches or wraps.
You will need to use a gas oven in order to blacken the peppers inside the oven. Another option is to use jarred roasted red peppers, about 1 1/2 cups total.
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cook Time: 35 minutes
- Total Time: 1 hour 25 minutes (+ inactive time)
- Yield: Serves 6 1x
- 3 medium red bell peppers
- 1/2 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs*
- 1 clove of garlic
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1/2 tablespoon pomegranate molasses
- 1 1/2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 tablespoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 1/3 cup walnut halves, finely chopped
Optional Toppings
- chopped parsley
- lemon zest
- freshly ground black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC) and position an oven rack to the center position. Line a baking sheet pan with foil.
- Put the bell peppers on the sheet pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, turning occasionally, until the outer skin is blackened. Once the peppers are roasted, transfer them to a heat-safe bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Let the peppers sit for about 30 minutes. Once the peppers are cool enough to handle, remove the skin, stem, seeds and ribs.
- Add the peppers, breadcrumbs, garlic, lemon juice, pomegranate molasses, vinegar, salt, red pepper flakes, cumin and olive oil into the bowl of a food processor. Blend everything until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasonings to your liking. Empty the red pepper mixture into a bowl.
- Stir in the chopped walnuts, saving 1 or 2 tablespoons for topping. Sprinkle the rest of the chopped walnuts, parsley, lemon zest and black pepper on top of the muhammara. Drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil. Serve immediately. The dip is best consumed within 3 to 4 days.

Authentic Movement
Authentic Movement is an expressive improvisational movement practice that allows a group of participants a type of free association of the body. It was started by Mary Starks Whitehouse in the 1950s as "movement in depth".
Whitehouse (1911 – 1979) was a student of famed Martha Graham and Mary Wigman, who became a professional dancer and subsequent teacher.1 With an interest in Jungian thought, Whitehouse trained as a psychotherapist and upon incorporating dance and movement into her sessions with psychiatric clients began pioneering expressive movement as dance movement therapy (around the same time as Marion Chace in Washington DC).2 Intrigued by Jung's principles of 'active imagination' Whitehouse integrated her knowledge of dance and Jung into an experimental psychotherapy done in a group process where participants engage in spontaneous expressive movement exploration. This process later became known as Authentic Movement (AM).
When starting a basic AM session, participants start in a comfortable position, eyes closed to sense their inner body-mind processes. They then wait for stimuli to arise within them, and follow each impulse expressing movement or sound. Individuals move through the space entirely free from any direction or expectation. This allows people to explore psychological processes as they arise into kinesthetic responses of movement or sound.
As Whitehouse explains, "When the movement was simple and inevitable, not to be changed no matter how limited or partial, it became what I called 'authentic' – it could be recognized as genuine, belonging to that person."3 The movement becomes 'authentic' when the individual is able to allow their intuitive impulses to freely express themselves without intellectual directive, as opposed to movement initiated by conscious decision making – a distinction which may appear clear, but practically a challenge. Individuals simply pay attention to what they feel at a sensory level, since "the core of the movement experience is the sensation of moving and being moved."4
In the Authentic Movement aspect of Whitehouse's approach, the moving participants (movers) are passively observed by a witness, who 'contains' the experience of the mover by witnessing their movements without judgement, projection or interpretation. In this way the witness is also an active participant, as witnessing is a practice in observing one's own sensations and impulses while observing the mover's. It's important to note that Whitehouse created many individual, dyadic and group experiences to create a context for moving from inner sensation and whole-body experience. Authentic Movement is a term coined and developed by Janet Adler that has become identified with Whitehouse but which doesn't entirely encompass her contribution.
Authentic Movement, in a similar way to Elsa Gindler's 'Human Work' in concentration, has revealingly comparable elements to several forms of Eastern Buddhist philosophy. The close attention that is paid to sensation, which as Vedanā in most Buddhist practices is to be observed without judgment, suggests Whitehouse may have been influenced by this. Also, the term witness has been widely used in Buddhism referring to the aspect of the individual that is capable of observing other aspects of him/herself without judgement or discernment. Buddhism has a long history in United States, and gave rise in the 1950s in particular with the work of D. T. Suzuki through works such as Outlines of Mahayana Buddhism and An Introduction to Zen Buddhism. In this light, AM can also be seen as a type of moving meditation.
With many different approaches, exercises or practices (other than the basic practice above), AM is done not only in therapeutic sessions, but also as groups for personal expression of the unconscious mind. For many, it is a type of spiritual practice.

Christine de Beer Floral Lifestyle Design
This was my A Floral Fable Design demonstration at the Capilano Flower Arranging club. Over the next few weeks I will show each of the designs in detail and add the design tutorials.
This week I'll look at the basic mechanics and the Floral Art structures, constructions and armatures used in the demonstration.
I begin all four designs in the same Fairy-tale Forest: made of moss, twigs and bark. That is the basic ingredients. The demonstration explores ways to add small floral details to tell your own floral fable or simply express yourself with floral art.
With every design I add I will demonstrate one concept, thought or idea and by just slightly changing a few of the floral ingredients the design flips over into its contrast.
Floral Art Structures:
A structural design is either classified as a Structure or a Construction depending on the placement of the water source but grouped, as design styles, we refer to them as armatures (older term) or Structural Designing.
I consider myself a Structural Designer and prefer designing in an armature rather than a container. I love the drama of designing, not only the floral details but the entire environment framing the flowers.
It is possible to convey the character of a design in a lot more detail without the limitations set by a pre-designed container.
Armatures are also ideal design solutions for contemporary designers who want to create large designs without the strain on resources (both natural and financial) by creating mass and space with less expensive, sustainable and more permanent plant material such as bamboo or twigs.
The demonstration designs:
The moral of our first fable is: You can change your mood as fast as you can change your mind.
It is a hazel twig wreath glued rather than woven. Set the wreath on a round bubble vase filled with water. I will dress it with tulips to show how you can create a thoughtful, restrained and meditative design and then alter it slightly to demonstrate a playful, youthful and exuberant design
Here is the design post: A Floral Fable: Mood Design
The moral of our second fable is that colour can make you super cool or smoking hot
I begin the design arranging the plant material curled up and hibernating inside the stacked twig nest and then the spring sun will chase away the clouds and warm up the forest floor.
Here is the design post: A Floral Fable: Colour Design
The moral of our third fable is that our approach to things changes how we see the world
The twigs are placed in a container and then permanently set into place with clay. I will demonstrate how to create a trendy minimalist city design and then change it slightly to demonstrate a softer rustic country garden design.
Here is the design post: A Floral Fable: Approach Design
The moral of our forth fable is Never be afraid to go down a new road; you don't know what great things it might lead to!
I will be using the romantic Victorian language of flowers to send a coded message. The armature is made of paper and metal covered in bark.
Here is the design post: A Floral Fable: Floriograpy Design
Every week I add a new design with related tutorials. Be sure to subscribe to receive an email notification with design inspiration.
This is my ongoing creative workbook to research and capture design projects and techniques. You will mostly find ideas for floral art but I will also include some other projects such as gift packaging, cards and even cake decorating with a few lifestyle projects arranged in between.
Everything you see in this workbook was designed, made and photographed by me, unless specific credit is given to another designer.

Writing on Wednesday: Delta Rainbow
- At May 4, 2016
- By Susan
- In Creative Nonfiction, Essays, Writing
- 1
I'm still working on my essay for the "Joy" essay contest for the Creative Nonfiction Journal, and I need to spend a couple more hours on it today to finish it and send it in, so this blog post will be short. I'm so grateful to two writing buddies for critiquing my essay and giving me feedback—NancyKay Wessman and Sally Palmer Thomason.
And speaking of creative nonfiction and Sally Thomason, her new book is out:
Delta Rainbow: The Irrepressible Betty Bobo Pearson (University Press of Mississippi)
You can ORDER IT HERE.
I'm looking forward to hosting Sally for a literary salon in our home again soon, and I'm sure we'll be seeing her at bookstores and events in Memphis, Oxford, Greenwood, Jackson, and other places in the coming months. She did an incredible job sharing the stories that have endeared Betty Bobo Pearson to so many people and will surely create new fans as people read this book.
On a personal note, we're leaving for Paris this Friday (yes!) so I might not blog as regularly for a couple of weeks. I appreciate my readers so much and have tried to post faithfully three times a week for the past nine years. Please forgive me if I take a break!
One comment
Bon voyage! I look forward to reading all about it after you return.May 5, 2016

Paris tries to woo British bankers
More than 80 representatives from banks and business have been meeting with authorities from Paris who are highlighting the attraction of the French capital if Britian's exit from the EU forces the relocation of some activities in continential Europe. Julian Satterthwaite reports
Forget fine wine and good food ... the big question from London's bankers was how much tax will I pay? More than 80 representatives from UK banks have met with authorities from Paris, who are trying to woo British financiers in the wake of the Brexit vote. Britain's departure from the EU widely expected to force the relocation of some jobs. (SOUNDBITE) (English) ANJULI DAVIES, REUTERS CORRESPONDENT, SAYING: "Paris is saying it doesn't want to steal jobs from London. It wants to be an alternative global capital, a so-called win-win situation. It says it already has the infrastructure, the global talent pool, the global education... But, of course, it's competing with other European capitals such as Frankfurt which already has a great financial centre. But the big joke amongst the French is to ask 'When have you ever booked a weekend in Frankfurt?'" France thinks it can attract 10,000 jobs, although bankers mention French tax rates and labour laws as a possible deterrent. The French government introduced tax concessions for expatriates last year in the hope Paris could profit from Brexit. But experts say other centres with more flexible labour and tax rules could be bigger beneficiaries. Banks also keeping a close eye on French politics: (SOUNDBITE) (English) ANJULI DAVIES, REUTERS CORRESPONDENT, SAYING: "Banks are waiting to decide whether they move to Paris for the outcome of the French election which is due in April, May. But, we have had one solid commitment from HSBC. It has said that it could move 1,000 jobs to Paris." Dublin and Luxembourg among rivals to Paris. Not to be outdone, senior German regulators met with 50 envoys from foreign banks last week to try to attract them to Frankfurt. But the French delegation thinks lifestyle questions give it the upper hand.

Aside from being a stunning picturesque and traditional alpine town for real skiers there are some truly stunning luxury St Anton chalets as well as a great selection of hotels. Professional skiers and boarders from around the world also flock here to enjoy the diverse terrain and endless off piste that have made this resort so very special.
Keeping its historic tradition and charm, the town has managed to slip seamlessly into a more modern and sophisticated resort. Catering not only for the dedicated skier but also those discerning skiers who appreciate the finer things in life. Slope side bars and terraces bustle with sun worshippers and après ski partiers. The main street offers a range of shops, cafes, bars, restaurants and boutiques to keep everyone happy and there are plenty of luxury ski chalets and hotels to stay in.
Part of the famous Arlberg Ski Region, St Anton is perhaps the most challenging of the Arlberg resorts. There are an array of slopes that will cater for all levels of skier. Beginner routes and intermediate pistes allow you to cruise the whole region sticking on blues and reds and the Rendl mountain offers a quieter, more sedate level of cruisey skiing.
When the snow is fresh, it more than deserves its reputation as a World Top 5 ski resort and is best enjoyed and explored by one of our hand picked guides.
The White Ring ski experience takes you from St Anton – Stuben – Zurs – Lech and back again. Providing a great day of skiing for intermediate – advanced skiers, it makes the après ski drink on the Mooserwirt terrace all the more worthwhile!
Apres ski at either the Mooserwirt or Krazy Kanguruh is a must for anyone. The late evening, moonlit home run can prove quite a surreal experience!
A long, late lunch on the Hospiz Alm balcony on a sunny afternoon will be a memory you will never forget, especially following the tour of the world's biggest big bottled wine cellar.
When the snow is good, allow us to hand pick you an off piste guide to enjoy the "Arlberg Classic" off piste routes. The back of Valluga – Zurs, the trek into Hinter Rendl and the Malfont Valley are ski days you will reminisce about for years to follow.
This diverse resort has developed a very international pallet, where the most sophisticated of food critics would be impressed. From traditional and hearty Austrian fare to fantastic Michelin restaurants. Tapas, Thai, Fusion, Steak, Italian and fine French cuisine are all on offer. These are all within easy reach of our luxury catered ski chalet.
Wine also plays a big part of the scene and although fiercely loyal to their own fantastic grapes, connoisseurs can enjoy fine wines from around the world.
Affectionately known as the birthplace of après ski, the nightlife here begins right on the slopes, right after skiing! Live music bars, sophisticated wine bars, late night dance clubs all mix in with the Austrian cafe bar culture that adorn the main street. A diverse town that really does offer something for everyone.

Zurich: 2 hours

@Steve: Ok, thank you for your advice. I will try it now. I am still learning to find my way around the forum.
@Float On: I haven't had chance so far to get to know anyone who keeps bees personally. I have done some reading around and definitely want to give it a try. Guess, all I can do right now is to plant some bee friendly native plants in my tiny yard. I just enjoy seeing that buzz around. Bees for me represent spring.
@Dado potato: That's a great insight and advice. Well, I don't where I will find my piece of land yet. I am open to pretty much anywhere - would prefer a place with four seasons, though.
@Rosarugosa: Thank you for your kind words. I am happy to be a part of your community.

Caffeine has gotten a bad rap. But a comprehensive review of clinical data shows that healthy adults can consume 400 mg of caffeine per day without negative side effects---including no general toxicity, no cardiovascular effects, and no bone problems. Caffeine is also not associated with an increased risk of cancer.
Caffeine works: It is a powerful antidote to morning fogginess. One sip of caffeinated coffee in the morning sets off a cascade of positive effects. Muscles become stronger, the cortex of the brain is stimulated, and the airways to the lungs open up. In fact, in 2006, the Beverage Guidance Panel recommended that as a society, we should be drinking more unsweetened coffee and tea---and less sugary, fattening drinks. The panel recommends 50 fluid ounces of water daily and 28 ounces of unsweetened coffee or tea.
Caffeine Content of Popular Beverages (per serving)
Information from the National Soft Drink Association
Drip coffee
115-175 mg
100 mg
Brewed coffee
80-135 mg
Instant coffee
65-100 mg
Brewed tea
60 mg
Instant tea
30 mg
Alan Weinberg and Bonnie Bealer have written the definitive guide to caffeine in their 416 page magnus non-fiction opus, The World of Caffeine: The Science and Culture of the World's Most Popular Drug.
And of course, there is that delicious combination of coffee and chocolate. What a daring, intriguing duo. A one-ounce serving of chocolate, on its own, has about 20 mg of caffeine, so the combo is definitely energizing. But, there's a nirvana appeal that has nothing to do with the chemistry of caffeine and everything to do with the particular alchemy of smooth dark chocolate and bold coffee. When it's done right, the wow factor is loud. Case in point: chocolate heath fudge made by Montclair, New Jersey-based Chocolatism. The tagline, "Chocolate you can believe in," is not overstated. All ingredients are pure, and while chocolate/coffee combos tends towards decadence, there is a nod towards restraint. It's as if you can feel the fat-burning thermogenic effects of coffee kicking-in just as you're finishing off your second piece of fudge. Long live the paradox and the synergy: coffee & chocolate; warmth & snow. Happy December everyone!
