The afternoon session will be a three-hour session on the Ohio Medicaid Waiver Billing System and Managing Client Funds. DODD now requires supervisors to have this training. All aspects of billing will be covered, including rules, documentation requirements, EMBS system, PAWS, compliance and more. Managing client funds effectively is important for not only your organization but for the individuals we manage those funds for. A portion of the afternoon session will be spent of this as well and how to set up good systems and compliance inside of your organization.
Your supervisors will get to spend the day with peers who are in the same place they are. We have everything covered…..materials, food and supplies.
This is a casual event, so wear comfortable clothing and come ready for an action packed day of training.
The cost is $100 per person and includes a breakfast, lunch and materials.

To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic, dried and fresh oregano, thyme, and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Pat the lamb dry and place it into a shallow platter. Season it well with salt and pepper. Pour 1/2 the vinaigrette over the lamb and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours.
Heat the grill or grill pan and oil it lightly. Remove the lamb from the marinade and grill for about 15 to 20 minutes per side for medium-rare. (Adjust the time accordingly for other degrees of doneness.) Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Carve into thin slices.
Toss the mache, mint leaves, and scallions in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Dress the salad with about 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette and mix well. Place the lamb onto a serving board. To serve, spread the Lemony Chickpea Puree over the lamb and put the greens on top of the puree.
Drain and rinse chickpeas and put them into a saucepan. Cover with cold water by 2 inches; add the bay leaf and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer beans until tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Drain, reserving about 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Remove the bay leaf and discard.
Put cooked chickpeas into a food processor or blender. Add the olive oil, lemon juice and zest, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Process until smooth; add some of the reserved cooking liquid to thin, if needed. Serve on top of the Grilled Marinated Lamb or put into a serving dish and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and the parsley.
If you are concerned if the oils or other ingredients in these recipes are suitable for Passover, seek non-dairy substitutes or ingredients that are certified kosher for Passover.

|With overtraining you have to undertrain to reverse the damage you've done. Doing so in intermittent hypoxia, returns important markers of OT to normal in less than 4 weeks in T&F athletes.
As a SuppVersity reader you will know that as much and be aware of the benefits of training in hypoxia in non-overtrained athletes, where multiple studies have shown its efficacy to improve performance and body composition - often without exercising or at least only regular workouts.
You can learn more about overtraining and checking your training status at the SuppVersity
"15 athletes with OTS volunteered to participate and undertook a conditioning programme consisting of repeated exposures to hypoxia (O2 at 10%) and hyperoxia (O2 at 30%) (6–8 cycles, total time 45 min–1 h), three times a week, delivered 1 5–2 h after a low-intensity exercise session (2 bouts of 30 min, running at 50% of VO2max with 10 min rest between bouts) over 4 weeks" (Susta. 2015).Nineteen healthy track and field athletes volunteered to participate as a control group and followed their usual training schedule. Measurements before and after the intervention included exercise capacity, analysis of heart rate variability and hematological parameters.
|Figure 1: Pre vs. post results of the PWC170 (Boreham. 1990) performance test in overtrained and normal athletes (Susta. 2015) indicate that even with hypoxic training the time it takes to recover is a throwback for athletes.
improved exercise performance (191. 9 +/- 26. 9 W versus 170 .8 +/- 44 .8 W in exercise capacity test in which the subjects physical work capacity was tested at a heart rate of 170 beats per minute | PWC170 | P = 0 01).
|Figure 2: The most significant marker that indicates the normalization of the training status in the overtrained group is the LH/HF Index, the only variable that is plotted against the secondary axis (Susta. 2015).
|If you've tried to use overraching to increase your performance, the hypoxia-hyperoxia protocol used in the study could come very handy to help you recover | learn more.
A follow up study in which this is being done and the effects on performance and the normalization of the sympatho-parasympathetic index are compared between the regular and hypoxia training group is thus necessary before one could recommend training in hypoxia for athletes and/or gymrats suffering from the very existent overtraining syndrome | Comment on Facebook!

What's New in Windows 10 S?
- Thino Ullmann
- Windows 10, News
Microsoft presented Windows 10 S and the Surface Laptop – designed especially for the education sector – on 3 May in New York. The software giant also took the opportunity to roll out some added goodies for Microsoft Intune , which these products support. The update will be available from summer 2017. Thino Ullmann takes a closer look at the new version of the operating system.
Windows 10 S is designed to conquer the schools market
As a simplified version of Windows 10, Windows 10 S is designed especially for the education sector, as well as for PC vendors and interested users. Google leads the field with its Chromebooks, particularly in the highly competitive education market in America. Microsoft is keen to establish the new version and its associated hardware as a genuine alternative, as some Google Chromebooks are priced significantly below a classic Windows notebook. What's more, Windows S is designed to fundamentally simplify the provision of soft/hardware and administration in this sector. That's why the upgrades to the cloud-based management tool Intune were presented as well.
What are the pros and cons of Windows 10 S?
Windows 10 S is designed around the Windows 10 Pro version, although much of it is significantly different. The following table shows which features are available, and which are not.
|Configuration and Features
|Windows 10 S
|Windows 10 Home
|Windows 10 Pro
|Applications not available in the Windows Store
|Join a local domain
|Join an Azure AD domain
|Windows Store Apps (including Win32 Centennial Apps)
|Standard browser defined as Microsoft Edge
|Windows Update for Business
|Windows Store for Business
|Management of mobile devices (MDM)
|Roaming for companies with Azure AD
|Shared PC configuration
Source: Microsoft
One of the biggest restrictions here is that exclusively Windows Store applications can be installed. Some readers may be familiar with this from Windows RT. But Windows S differs very significantly from the RT version in this respect, also because it supports x86 processors, unlike just the ARM processors that RT accepts.
Windows 10 S and Office 365
Since the sales launch of Microsoft Surface Laptops with Windows 10 S preinstalled Office 365 is also available in the Windows Store. This version of Office 365 is a preview that can only be installed by users of Windows 10 S Surface Laptops.
Users of a Surface Laptop with Windows 10 S installed receive the Personal version for a year free of charge during the preview phase of Office 365.
Which Office 365 plans are available for Windows 10 S?
- Office 365 Personal
- Office 365 Home
- Office 365 Education Plus
- Office 365 Education E5
Store-Apps are not available for Office 365 Business and volume license customers. Microsoft recommends these customers to upgrade from Windows 10 S to Windows 10 Pro in order to be able to install the Business version of Office 365 afterwards.
Which Office 365 Apps are available at the moment?
- Word
- Excel
- PowerPoint
- OneNote (Version Universal Platform)
- Outlook*
- Access*
- Publisher*
*not available during the preview of Office 365 Education plans
The Office 365 Store Apps mentioned above are restricted in their scope of functions that is why they do not correspond to the Office 365 Desktop Version.
For further information have a look at the FAQs .
Windows 10 S: Current information at a glance
Microsoft has put together additional information in an FAQ sectionand on its website.
Windows 10 S – FAQs
Windows 10 S – Homepage
Windows 10 S – Keynote Video
Would you like some advice about the Microsoft toolbox?
Do you have additional questions, or would you like advice on what Microsoft offers you? Visit our overview page, where you will find all the relevant information. You are welcome to contact us as well. We will be glad to help.

I have to say, of all of the chefs on TV and in the limelight these days, I think the one chef that has the most consistently good dishes is Giada De Laurentiis. Try any of her "top 100 recipes" here, and I can guarantee the dish will be very good!
I've made her chicken piccata, her butternut squash lasagna, her bolognese, her cioppino (oh that soup was wonderful), to name a few. Tonight after watching a new episode of Giada at Home, I made one of her "comfort food" dishes: Trenette with Eggplant and Basil Pesto. I substituted penne for the trenette and walnuts for the pine nuts in the pesto and left out about 1/2 the cheese but it was still quite wonderful. I recommend making it on a cool night and on an empty stomach!
Trenette with Eggplant and Basil Pesto
Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis
Prep Time: 14 min
Inactive Prep Time: --
Cook Time: 30 min
Level: Easy
Serves: 4 to 6 servings
2 packed cups fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts (see Cook's Note)
1 clove garlic
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus extra for seasoning
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus extra for seasoning
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup (1 1/2 ounces) grated Parmesan
1 pound trenette or other short-cut pasta
1/2 cup (1 1/2 ounces) grated Parmesan, plus 1/2 cup
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 (1 1/2 pounds) medium eggplant, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the pesto: In a blender or food processor, pulse the basil, pine nuts, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until finely chopped. With the machine running, gradually add the oil until the mixture is smooth and thick. Add the cheese and pulse until just incorporated. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
For the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and reserve about 1 cup of the pasta water. Put the pasta into a large serving bowl and add 1/2 cup of the Parmesan. Toss until coated.
In a large, nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the eggplant and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring frequently, until the eggplant turns golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and cool slightly. Add the pesto and toss until the eggplant is coated.
Add the eggplant mixture to the serving bowl with the pasta and toss until all of the ingredients are coated. Thin out the sauce with a little pasta water, if needed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and serve.
Cook's Note: To toast the pine nuts, arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven until lightly toasted, about 5 to 6 minutes. Cool completely before using
Chow for now! :)

Giada, will you marry me?

I just made that for dinner last night (with walnuts instead of pine nuts as well). Hello, new favorite pasta dish!!! Giada rocks.ReplyDelete

I made her Whole-Grain Spaghetti with Pecorino, Prosciutto and Pepper for dinner last night and loved it! Very distinctive flavors and you have to like pepper a lot - but I thought it was a delicious, unique pasta dish. I agree with those folks who can't stand her pseudo-Italian accent but she still has GREAT recipes!ReplyDelete
I just watched her today and she made these mouth watering short ribs...I also always take recipes from her Top 100 on Foodnetwork.com!ReplyDelete
Amy - when I am looking for something interesting to make for dinner I ALWAYS go to her top 100... Good stuff!ReplyDelete

I am a real person like you. I live in Pittsburgh, PA and have struggled over the
years with bad financial decisions and poor credit choices. My credit scores dove
to the mid-400's and I saw no way of getting back to where I needed to be. I spent
hundreds of dollars over the years with companies that promised to raise my credit
score and remove negative marks, only to find that what they were doing helped very
little, if any at all. In the end I still had bad credit and...
The credit bureaus are not goverment agencies. They are privately owned companies
that make billions of dollars from selling YOUR credit report. And how they
report that data is where the problem is.

No one knows for absolute certain the exact formula that is used to calculate a
score, but we have a good idea of the approximate percentages for credit events
and how they are affect the final number.

You will never find anything on this site that tells you to do anything that could

I hate testimonials...I really do. You never know if what you are reading is truthful,
or just another ploy to get you to believe them. So my personal guarantee to you
is that I will never edit any testimonial that a user puts on this site. So, with

Credit bureaus are illegally reporting your credit history
"Age ain't nothing but a number
While that may be true, nothing is more true than the same statement when it comes
to finances. The only difference is that number is your credit score.
Everyone makes mistakes, and we all pay for those mistakes in one form or another.
But if you're reading this then the mistakes you've made are affecting your ability
to obtain the credit that in today's world is critically necessary. But what you
don't know is that the credit bureaus have been violating everyone's
rights for years...and yes I mean EVERYONE.
The FCRA requires that credit bureaus can only report information that they can
verify 100% is completely and totally accurate. But, they don't have the necessary
proof on file to be able to do so. As a result, they can not legally report anything
on your credit report...including (and most importantly) things that are damaging
to your credit that cause you to be denied a loan.
So if this is true, you ask, how are they getting away with it? The answer is simple...no
one holds the credit bureaus responsible. They think that it's going to cost a lot
of money that they don't have, or have the "you can't fight city hall" mentallity.
The truth is it doesn't cost as much as you may think, and when you follow the steps
that I did you'll see how easy it really is.
I have personally done everything that I'm about to tell you, and the results that
I have seen are nothing short of amazing. For years I tried every "credit repair"
program out there, only to be discouraged my the lack of results, and out a lot
of money.
Now, before we start, I'm not out to make a huge profit like the other companies
that I'm sure you seen. I will be straight forward with you and tell you that I
do charge an insanely small fee compared to what you will be getting when it's all
said an done. So as long as we're clear on that, take a look at the following links
so that you can navigate this website.

When Jenifer Ringer, who retired last month from New York City Ballet after 24 years, watched Darren Aronofsky's "Black Swan," she laughed at this thriller on the forces of ballet darkness. But her memoir, "Dancing Through It: My Journey in the Ballet," does not skimp on what she calls "the crazy side of ballet." With quiet eloquence and self-deprecating humor, Ms. Ringer suggests how a profession as idealistic as it is hierarchical and competitive might drive a talented young woman to self-destruct.
"We were teenagers," Ms. Ringer, now 40, writes of her cohort of 16-year-olds just admitted to City Ballet. "It would take a while for us to realize that the world we were entering might well prove impossible to survive."
For the first few years, she was too exhilarated to care about the endless workdays, spent learning complex ballets at breakneck speed. She didn't mind cramming for a coveted demi-soloist role on two hours' notice, being pitted against friends for parts, or weathering directors and choreographers' tempers. And she had no cause to notice the shroud of secrecy surrounding dancers' "pain or exhaustion" or whatever vulnerability might compromise the ballets' presentation.
But her body, outgrowing the willowy Balanchine ideal, soon gave her cause. Anxious that her new hips and thighs would doom her, she began to starve herself, then stuff herself more and more, devouring sci-fi novels and mounds of pasta each night in her apartment alone. By civilian standards, she counted as merely chubby. At City Ballet, though, the extra pounds would cost her roles and, after many warnings, her job (for a year, anyway).
"Dancing Through It" fashions itself as an addiction memoir. Ms. Ringer sinks to the depths of overeating before a power higher than City Ballet management pulls her up. Raised a Christian, she must recommit to her faith before, she writes, "I could allow myself to be in this body." And the self-acceptance sticks. When, a few years ago, Alastair Macaulay wrote in The New York Times that she seemed to have eaten "one sugarplum too many," she was, she says, "fine." (Still the review prompted a storm of outrage — and an invitation for her to appear on "Oprah.")
If recovery is this memoir's organizing principle, its charm lies in its chronicle of a ballerina's daily work. Ms. Ringer may have been living inside "a bubble of shame," but, meanwhile, she was listening to her boss, the City Ballet's artistic director, Peter Martins, explain his diet plan: Cut out the cheesecake. (She contemplated instead the dancer diet of the 1970s: cigarettes and cocaine. But she tried neither.)
As for this memoir's grace, it lies in the luminous descriptions of the ballets, which did not save Ms. Ringer but did prove soul-enhancing. "There is a ballet that is like an ocean," she writes of Balanchine's "Serenade." "It seems to stretch beyond the horizons of the stage." The first time she danced it, she felt "a light taking up residence in my chest."
The joy she communicates about dancing balances the account of suffering. It also illuminates the essential freedom that only performance affords in such a strict idiom as ballet. Ms. Ringer lays out a comical litany of her onstage gaffes: the blanking out, the falling down, the making stuff up to hide the gaping hole a dancer missing in action has left. She seems to have enjoyed it all. Onstage, the rule of ballet master and mirror — the usual dispensers of judgment — is suspended.
"It felt as if we were alone in another world," she notes of a performance of "Dances at a Gathering," the Robbins treasure with which she bid farewell on Feb. 9, her powers of gesture, sustained lyricism and vibrant attention to her fellow dancers fully roused. "It really didn't matter if there was an audience."
As a teenager, she "wanted to be perfect." By the time she was "a free-standing adult" she wanted "there to be a reason why I was doing certain steps." The dances gave her reasons.
Ms. Ringer is that rare double threat: a ballerina who can write. More often, the trouper gets an assist, as Misty Copeland, a 31-year-old American Ballet Theater soloist, has had for her midcareer memoir, "Life in Motion: An Unlikely Ballerina."
That shared byline, with the journalist Charisse Jones, may explain why Ms. Copeland sounds like her own most devoted fan, trained on the make-it-or-break-it trials of reality TV competitions, whenever the focus turns to the Big Moments — such as her debut as Firebird for Alexei Ratmansky's brilliant remake.
And yet for an African-American ballerina, these moments really are huge — larger than her own self. You could count the number of black women in major ballet companies on one hand, and the soloists on a few fingers. Ms. Copeland's struggle, since she started at 13, has been to reconcile the African-American culture in which she was raised with the world of ballet. The two would not have been at such odds, though, if not for her mother.
In a childhood of "packing, scrambling, leaving," ballet "gave my life grace and structure," Ms. Copeland notes. But when dancing became a passion and the teacher who first spotted her at the Boys and Girls Club of San Pedro, Calif., took the girl under her wing, "Mommy" forced her back into the family fold.
Many professional ballet dancers have had stage mothers; Ms. Copeland had an anti-stage mother, who turned down year-round scholarships for her daughter from the best schools in the country to keep her home. She enforced a crippling either/or logic: either family or ballet, either be black or be a ballerina. This false opposition continues to torment Ms. Copeland. To compensate for her isolation at American Ballet Theater, she imagines "carrying every little brown girl with me" when she dances. In depicting the psychic load a black artist bears in a predominantly white profession, "Life in Motion" is wrenching and revelatory.

Month: August 2012
Case Study: Seminar Registrations on Missed Calls.
Organization profile:
Indian Academy of Management (IAM) is a professional and autonomous institution which has been founded to promote state-of-the-art knowledge and expertise in all facets of management education, training, development and research. With an objective to widespread knowledge, the company undertakes, Management Development Programmes in all areas of Management including Sales, Finance, Leadership, HRM, Supply chain, Import-Export Policy, Logistics and the like.
Innovative Business Initiative:
In order to get registrations/participants for workshops, the company advertised the seminar details through Email and SMS marketing. The participant had to proactively request a brochure by calling up the Customer Support. In response, they received the brochure via e-mail. However, this demanded time and effort on the part of the caller. Hence, to extend convenience, VivaConnect proposed its FreeBuzz platform whereby a prospective participant could download the brochure pertaining to a particular seminar by just giving a missed call. The client published an advertisement in a leading newspaper with the seminar schedule along with the respective Toll Free Numbers. The participant had to just dial the Toll Free Number as given against the respective seminar/workshop.
- The new service lead to increase in the number of registrations as the participant just had to give a missed call.
- It reduced human intervention throughout the process.
- Saved time on the part of the caller as he did not have to wait to resolve his queries.
- It lead to increase in customer satisfaction as they received the required details in real-time.
- As the service was user friendly – based on dialing and not typing, it was preferred by many.
- The client was able to keep a track of the incoming missed calls and segregate the same region-wise, seminar-wise etc.

Government declares ban on Bulk SMS and MMS yet again, for 15 days.
With a view to counter the spread of rumours and control the migration of north-eastern people from certain states, the government banned sending of Bulk SMS and MMS for 15 days. The regulation came into effect on 17th August, 2012, restricting delivery of more than 5 SMS. As a result, there is a growing discontent among those who use SMS more often than any other way of communication. One of the reasons is that there is unclarity in the regulation due to no mention whether the ban is for 5 SMS per day, or adding more than 5 recipients while sending single SMS. Also, it has not been made clear whether the regulation is for P2P segment or A2P.
The regulation widely got interpreted as ban on promotional messages sent by Bulk SMS Providers in A2P segment, and only on pre-paid connections under P2P segment, as the postpaid connections are guided by technical limitations on GSM/CDMA system. While this regulation is implemented to keep intact the national security and integration, the effect has been more non-constructive in fulfilling the purpose, inviting following criticism:
- Many are of the opinion that it is rightful on their part to receive a notification about cab or ticket bookings. The categorization of message being 'transactional or promotional' ought to be taken into consideration.
- Through the ban, though the government was trying to address the viral effect of text messages, the regulation ignores the fact that data-based messaging applications equally facilitate exchange of information including multimedia content.
- Rather than curbing down of SMS, the same should have been used productively by spreading across the message about false rumors.
Improve customer relations by eliminating the wait time blues.
Ever wondered why do hotels place mirrors next to elevators or why do grocery stores place reading materials in checkout lines?
The answer is simple – to avoid longer wait time on the part of their customers.
Research shows that customer's end up over estimating the time that they actually spend waiting which ultimately affects their experience and purchase decision. Hence, today businesses are constantly chalking out ways to eliminate or reduce such waiting hours to a level that it does not affect the customer in a negative way.
In order to overcome such consequences, we suggest the following tips that can benefit:
- 'CallMe' Icon: It is very essential for website owners in general and e-commerce firms in particular to provide their customers with a definite point of contact. One of the ways is to place a "CallMe/Chat" icon on your website. When a web visitor clicks on the icon, he can either request a call or resolve his queries via chat in real-time. This is an effective way to engage with your web visitors as they get your assistance when their buying desire is at its peak level.
- Interactive IVR: As media is moving more on the interactive and engaging side, the same can be applied in IVR cases as well. While your customers are on hold, you can intimate them about the latest information which you feel they would be interested in. E.g: Give them stock tips, top 5 music hits, movie reviews of the week, technology updates or any piece of information that would spice up their wait time.
- Creative content: You can even captivate your callers through marketing or branding pitch where you can inform them about your company, upcoming products, community events, recent achievements, little-known facts, fun trivia etc. By providing your customers with valuable and creative content, you can economize each call. It allows you to make the "most" of your time which otherwise meant unproductive.
The bottom-line is that when you engage your callers or web visitors, they perceive their waiting time to be comparatively shorter as against while they are on hold. Hence, by using innovative and interactive tools, one can reinforce the marketing efforts thereby availing positive benefits.
To sustain in a competitive economy, providing good customer service through reduced wait time can be a critical factor in avail customer satisfaction and retention.

Phone-based marketing trends to optimize your campaigns.
With mobile marketing opening up a numerous marketing opportunities, it is fascinating to see how companies are using different feature-combinations to drive innovative campaigns. Being centered around the phone, they leave ample scope for marketers to experiment with the techniques that can be used to fulfill the objectives of a particular campaign. Some of the latest trends include:
- QR codes: These are futuristic patterns on a white background usually found on product packaging, billboards, web pages, business cards, instruction sheets, manuals, T-shirt etc that carries information such as offers, product details, show timings, discount code etc.
- Push SMS: They are increasingly used by marketers to provide regular updates to their customers, convey promotional offers, transactional details etc.
- Pull SMS: They are increasingly used for getting feedbacks, voting, registrations, lead generation opt-in etc. The customer has to just reply on a 5 digit Short Code as advertised by the marketer.
- IVR: This mechanism is used to guide the caller about a particular process through an automated voice call. Through DTMF options, he can give feedback, know his account information, resolve a query, opt-in to a particular service etc.
- Toll Free Number: It is a free way for customer to reach a particular business. The numbers are usually published on marketing materials. The caller can avail customer service, drop a feedback/complaint, know about promotional offers, store details, upcoming products etc.
- Missed Calls: This is one of the trends gaining popularity. Through missed calls marketers can capture votes, generate leads and allow their customers to register/de- register to a particular service, receive verification codes etc.
All the above phone-based marketing trends have proven to be effective in achieving marketing and branding objectives at its respective levels. However, one can expect voluminous benefits if all the above are integrated into a single marketing campaign as follows:
- Publish a Toll Free Number through which one can avail discount coupons and vouchers.
- Once the customer calls, greet him with an IVR followed by a crisp marketing/ branding pitch.
- Enable him to opt-in to your future marketing campaigns through a DTMP input.
- In response, they receive a complementary coupon which he can redeem to avail monetary benefits on his next purchase.
- The real-time database thus generated can be used to undertake Push SMS campaigns that can include QR codes with vital marketing communications.
Having done this, you can expect your marketing objectives being fulfilled in the most optimum manner possible!

Gone are my childhood days when I and my friends knew with certainty what we wanted to "be" when we grew up. Dancers, firefighters, teachers (my personal choice ), astronauts, even the president of the United States (I'm not sure if any of them would really want that job NOW!), we were all pretty sure what we wanted to be. In our kindergarten world view, your profession defined you.
We had parents who were simply "Moms," "librarians," "businessmen," and "engineers." I grew up with a "Nurse-mom" and an "Engineer-dad." (And I never really understood what exactly my dad did everyday… I just knew that he had a lot of fun office supplies to play with when my sister and I would go into the office with him on certain Saturdays. Don't underestimate the magic in permanent markers, highlighters and a giant pad of paper on an easel… especially to a little girl who wants to be a teacher when she grows up and has a little sister who is relatively willing to sit and be a diligent pupil!)
Then, I started high school. And I didn't really like a lot of my teachers. Some were great, others, not so much… And I started to question, could I see myself teaching the SAME subject day after day, year after year? Wouldn't I be bored if I taught younger kids because of the lack of conversations/debates that took place in so many of my secondary education classes? (I've come to think- no, probably not. But, that was what I was thinking as a Junior/Senior in high school)
As college application time came around, I decided that it was kinda important that I have some idea of what I wanted to study for four years if for no other reason than it would help me narrow down the choices of colleges. I settled on Architecture. My rationalization was along the lines of, "Well, I like (and am pretty good at) math and science, but I really enjoy being creative… I really like houses, and all of the renovation/redecoration stuff we've done at our house since we moved in… and I really believe that there has to be a better way to build houses for the less-fortunate than the way government/low-income housing is done now." (the last thought was inspired by a summer short-term mission trip to South Dakota, which I'll have to write about later)
Anyway, I chose a good university that ended up having a very well- respected architecture program (which I didn't know when I signed up) and I spent the next four years living on very little sleep and late night snacks of crackers, water, and gum (you should've seen the stuff my classmates ate!) to churn out drawings, scale models, and "boards." It was a lot like hard work- with a lot of fun acitivities like throwing ninja stars made out of drafting tape and exacto blades at foam core targets added in. I graduated with a group of life-long friends- the kinds of which can only be formed during late night line dancing lessons amidst the chaos of cardboard, foam core, basswood, acetate, and LOTS of Tacky Glue (or, alternatively, boxes of uncooked spaghetti noodles and dozens of hot glue guns… I'm going to have to write a "series" on "architecture school") AND a degree Bachelor's of Science in Architectural Studies.
Now, I'm working at a non-profit organization that builds super energy efficient houses for low-income families and trying to decide again, what I want to be when I grow up. I could go back to school to get my Master's of Architecture. I could go back to school to get a Master's of Education and a teacher's certificate. I could keep working here. I could join the Teach for America corps. I could do a lot of things… and life isn't as simple as it was when I was in kindergarten, teaching my little sister what I had learned that day while we played "school." There are a lot more factors to consider now. The job market, the economy, our family economy, my husband's job/career, our immediate and eventual future plans… Lucky for me, I do know for sure ONE occupation that I want to be "when I grow up."
A mom. Now there's just all the other decisions to make, preparations, steps, etc. In the meantime, I'm really enjoying my job as a "wife." 🙂
What do you want to be when you grow up?
Choosing joy (and future plans!),

The Last Peep: What I Miss About Iqaluit
Tonight I'm in the Bruce Peninsula area, travelling for work, and thinking about the eastern arctic while surrounded by a wintery Georgian Bay wonderland. Seeing snow-heavy trees bowed down under the weight of heavy wet whiteness, and watching the water on the bay crash against the shore makes me think of how this landscape is like the eastern arctic and yet not like it at all. Both areas are stark and dramatic and beautiful. Both feel rugged and remote in their own ways. I love the communities and people in both places.
There are a lot of differences, too. Like trees, which I missed a lot when living on Baffin Island. But there is a lot I miss about Iqaluit and Baffin Island.
Here is my list of top 10 things I miss about Iqaluit (feel free to add your own Iqaluit favourites in the comments!)
1. The people: Of course. What fantastic friends and colleagues we were blessed to 'hang around' with. The north really does attract adventurous, quirky, wonderful characters and I miss so many of the great folks up there.
2. The landscape: Baffin Island is incredibly beautiful in a stark, harsh, wide-open, huge way. I loved the vastness of the horizons, and the simplicity of the landscape.
3. The pace of life: I'm really missing the laid back Iqaluit pace right now, as we lurch our way through the glitzy consumer-bombardment, crazy-busy, elevator-Christmas-music-in-shopping-mall type Christmas in the south.
4. PolarMan: I loved living in a community where folks accepted the local superhero as ... the local superhero. And how could you not love PolarMan's big-as-the-arctic heart?
5. Music: We had a great couple years of weekend music jams, weekly community choir, Road to Nowhere Band jam sessions and gigs, high school jazz band rehearsals (for John), St Jude's organ gigs (for Lorraine), and the funnest of all: playing in the pit orchestra for the local production of Fiddler on the Roof. Where will I ever again see a Russian Cossack character played by a long-time arctic resident from the Caribbean sporting dreadlocks?
6. The Harbour: It changed every day. I never stopped marveling at how you couldn't see those 30 foot tides push the ice up and down when you sat still and watched but yet, somehow, you knew it was happening. (Particularly when the dog teams on the ice would rise and drop from view behind the wall of ice scrunched up along the shore). And then there was the thrill when the first ship made it through the ice at the end of June or beginning of July each year....
7. The Astro Theatre "Movie" Messages: Phoning the answering machine for the local movie theatre, not only to find out what movies were on and whether Brian liked them, but also to hear Brian's commentary on everything from pothole travesties to political issues of the day.
8. Fur: I get strange looks in Toronto when I wear my fur-trimmed parkas or fur scarf, but so far no spray paint (My colleagues at work warn me its only a matter of time ...) I loved all the gorgeous fur handwork you see in evidence on Baffin Island parkas, boots, mitts and clothes, and all the other ways in which people integrated traditional art forms into everyday life.
9. "Country" food: When I was growing up in Alberta, we called it 'game' meat. I loved the access to fresh caribou, char, seal, and whale. And (true confessions time) I really loved eating the meat raw in the traditional Inuit style. John was never as enthusiastic as I was about this. But then again I grew up with a mother who could skin a deer in no time flat and who made the best moose sausage you ever tried, so perhaps I come by my carnivorous ways honestly ....
10. Arctic late night strolls: Bundling up and walking home late at night from visits to friends (usually after music jams!) living in the Road to Nowhere or Tundra Ridge or Legoland areas - walking down the hill, usually cutting across country because you can walk on the hard packed snow, and sometimes (if you were lucky) being stopped in your tracks because you just had to look up to watch the northern lights.
10 Honourable mentions:
- The crazy taxi drivers
- The Snack
- Alianait
- Friday dinners at the Legion
- Blizzard days
- Arctic Ventures
- The thrill of getting the "Saturday" Globe Mail (usually late Sunday, often Monday)
- Going out onto the land or water, hunting or fishing, for Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit (IQ) Days at work
- Arctic blueberries (so tiny and so delicious)
- Two hour grocery shopping trips because you have to visit everyone you bump into at the store
Here are four things I won't miss:
1. Wearing snow pants for seven months of the year almost every time I went outside.
2. $1800 'economy' flights to get to Ottawa or Montreal.
3. Low speed "high speed" internet.
4. Having to wait three weeks for Canada Post to deliver a letter from anywhere else in the country, and two weeks for a 'priority post' package.
And that's my last peep on this blog.

wonderful list Lorraine. We have lived in Iqaluit and I totally agree with your list.
I would add: the availability of quality arts and crafts, the community of Apex, the willingness of the libray to buy new books, the sealskin seats in the ledge, the often nearly libelous and always hilarious editorials of Jim Bell, the food at the cafeteria in the hospital, Captain Compost aka Jim Little.
Your photo of the snowy owl is amazing, love it. Liked your blog, hope you are both doing well "down there."

I've never heard him, but apparently the guy who leaves the movie messages at the Astro was 'let go' for joking around about First Air too much. Sticks-in-the-mud...

|An image from the ZIMMERMANN Swim SS13 campaign- see more envy-inducing shots here
Aah, if I were a rich girl.
There are so many things I want to do with my life. At the moment, my big dream is to travel to Australia to work with Vogue Australia... I did say it was a BIG dream, but you have to aim high. If I am truly honest, though, any Australian fashion company would do the trick. Australia is the one place in the world I truly long to visit but I just can't seem to find the time to go or, rather, I simply lack the organisation/motivation to just book this trip of a lifetime.
I'm working on it, I promise.
It just so happens, to add salt to the wound, that Australia has joined the ranks of Sweden and Denmark and become one of the most exciting countries in the fashion industry. This is particularly true of the affordable luxury market with a number of boutique labels emerging straight from the heart of Oz, specialising in decadent resortwear and the most incredible swimwear.
Back in London, and back down to earth, today I witnessed what is perhaps the first sunshine of 2013, and I immediately started daydreaming of swimming pools, summer and icy cool champagne.
Incidentally, also found myself navigating the ZIMMERMANN website simply lusting after their RTW and, of course, their divine swimwear.
ZIMMERMANN is one of the hottest labels in Australia, and they are making waves over here with stockists including Austique. Their trademark look is feminine but sexy, swimwear and dresses that are designed to look amazing on, without sacrificing any sensual style or modernity.
Check out their website here, as they are now shipping worldwide, but I warn you: it's a little tricky to resist...
While the price point does reach rather far beyond my fashion student budget, I can but dream, for these little bikinis are certainly dreamy.
1. First up, this little coral bikini is a surefire summer hit. With frill detail on the cups, this bikini is feminine in the most glamourous way possible, and the colour is sure to sparkle with a softly sunkissed skin. The Brightside Bikini retails at $245, available here.
2. Nothing makes poolside posing quite like perfectly manicured nails, and the Leighton Denny Spring 2013 'Riviera' collection offers the most delectable shades for spring ranging from this sugary Promenade Pink through to yummy pistachio green. They are available from March 1st and shall retail at £11.
3. It's not all about bikinis, as the self-conscious among us will know all too well! I personally have had far too many occasions where I have splurged on bikinis, only to revert to my faithful black and white swimming cossie. One pieces, however, need not be stuffy, and this ruched halter number is just lovely. In a watercolour floral print, this flirty number is perfect for summertime frolicking. The Locket one piece retails at $260 available here.
4 + 5. Alongside sexy little sets, Zimmermann also offer a selection of swim separates. My favourite is undoubtedly this zingy marigold pair. I love the frill detailing on the bra and that plunge neckline is just delightful. The top retails for $115 here and the matching bottoms are $60 here. While the colour is rather bright, doesn't it just put a smile on your face?
6. Another sweet shade from the Leighton Denny 'Riviera' collection , this peachy number is just gorgeous with softly blooming prints.
7. Speaking of softly blooming prints, how perfect is this flirty bikini? In the same print as the aforementioned Locket one piece, this fabulous frill bikini with a plunge neck and underwiring is a fabulous way to flaunt your flat tummy this coming summer. I'll take one bikini, and one flat tummy, please. The Locket frill bikini is available here at $210.
8. Not only do Zimmermann make the most lovely swimwear, they also offer effortlessly chic RTW and beach cover-ups. This lacy playsuit is my favourite piece for the new season. How elegant is this for a poolside cover-up? Ethereal and beautifully crafted, this long-sleeved playsuit would look particularly scrumptious worn over the periwinkle blue bikini. The Zoe Chiffon playsuit retails for $375 here.
9. Complete with glamourous gold detailing, this Locket bikini in periwinkle is another favourite of mine. I just can't comprehend how delightful this would look with a rich tan. In a flattering cupped style, this icy colour is seriously on trend this season. It retails for $230 here.

In business it always helps to befriend the executive assistant; he or she holds a lot of sway behind the scenes. Make sure the assistant who orders lunch for your conference gets a plate of food, include him or her in as many business decisions as reasonably possible, and remember his or her birthday. These are kind gestures with obvious benefits: If the assistant likes you, chances are, the boss will like you.

#261 Look people in the eye.
It can be uncomfortable, but do it anyway.
#260 Sometimes you have to cry it out.
A good crying jag can be cathartic. It's a girl thing. Just don't do it at work.
#246 If you have to tell someone no, do it in person.
I learned this from a business associate, but it's a good rule of thumb for personal interactions as well.
#234 Take pride in your work.
People will repeatedly tell you that to be truly happy, you must find a job that you love. I sincerely hope that you do. But in case you have to take a less-than-ideal position to pay the bills, there are some things you should know. Avoid any job that you find morally objectionable—you can't reconcile your values with tasks you find repugnant. But you can earn rewards from a job that you find only mildly tolerable. When you are presented with a challenge and use your skills to meet it, you will feel accomplished, regardless of the task. That feeling is universally valid and undeniably admirable; embracing it will make work a more rewarding experience in the day to day, even if it doesn't feed your soul.
#230 Politics truly can be a noble profession.
Genuine politics—even politics worthy of the name—the only politics I am willing to devote myself to—is simply a matter of serving those around us: serving the community and serving those who will come after us. Its deepest roots are moral because it is a responsibility expressed through action, to and for the whole.
-Václav Havel
#225 You will get good at anything you practice.
Everything gets easier the more you do it, good or bad, so choose your habits wisely.
#215 Pursue more than just the things you are good at.
You will be told at a young age what your talents are. Enjoy the compliments, but don't accept them at face value. You don't want to walk a narrow path; attempt things you aren't comfortable with and uncover skills or proclivities you didn't know you possessed.
#211 Stop when it's done.
With any creative pursuit, learning when to stop is part of the challenge; this type of editing can be what separates ordinary from excellent. It's very easy to make an oil painting muddy, an essay over-complicated, or a stir-fry mushy by not realizing when the work is complete.
#204 Be candid.
Use language that is free from subterfuge to render opinions that are frank, outspoken, and sincere. Choose appropriate moments to do so and strive to be impartial and unreserved. If you can develop consistency and compassion in this regard you will be known as a trusted friend and valued confidant, while simultaneously cultivating an honest and forthright relationship with the observations and emotions roiling about in your own head.

My Short Stories
From "The Way of Divine Love."
By Sister Josepha Menendez."
A father had an only son.
They were rich and powerful, served by devoted retainers, and surrounded by all that makes for honour, comfort and pleasure
in life, and nothing, neither person nor thing, was wanting to their good fortune. The son was all in all to the father, and
the father to the son, and each found in the other perfect contentment, though not so as to exclude others, for such noble
and generous hearts felt sympathy for anyone in distress, however slight it might be.
Now it came to pass that one of the servants of this good master fell ill, and as the danger increased, the only hope
of saving his life lay in the application of powerful remedies and most careful nursing.
But this servant lay at his poor and lonley home. At which the master felt alarm, for if left deserted, the man would
cetainly die.
What was to be done? True, a fellow servant could be sent to minister to him; but such service, done for gain rather
than for love, gave no assurance against possible neglect.
So, moved with compassion, the master called his son, and told him of his anxiety. He explained how near death the poor
man was, and that the most unremitting care alone could save him.
Like father, like son! The offer to go himself to succour the dying man is made at once. He will spare neither trouble,
fatigue nor night watches until the servants health is fully re-established.
The father accepts his son's offer, and willingly allows him to take on the likeness of a servant, that he may serve
him who is his slave.
Many months go by, months of anxious waiting by the sickbed, till at length health is restored, for nothing has been
spared that could not only cure his sickness, but also ensure his complete well-being.
and what of the servant? With a heart overflowing with gratitude, he asks what he can do in return for such
marvelous charity.
'go.' said the son ' seek out my father and with restored health offer yourself to become his most faithful servant in
return for his liberality.'
Overwhelmed by his obligations, the man stands in humble gratitude before his benefactor and proffers his services gratis,
forever. What need he of renumeration from such a master, who has treated him not as a servant but as a son."
This parable is but a pale image of the love I bear mankind, and of the loving return I look for from them. I will
explain it so that all men will know my heart.
God created man out of pure love. He placed him on the earth in circumstances that ensured his happiness until the day
of eternal bliss should dawn for him. But to have a right to such felicity he is bound to keep the sweet and wise laws laid
down for him by his Maker.
Man, unfaithful to this law, fell grievously sick: sin was comitted by our first parents, and all mankind, their descendants,
contracted this guilt and lost their right to the perfect beatitude promised them by God; and pain, suffering and death became
henceforth their lot.
Now God, in perfect bliss, had no need of man nor his services. He is sufficient unto himself. Infinite is his glory
and nothing can diminish it.
Infinite in power, he is also infinite in goodness; hence he will not allow man, created out of love, to perish; instead,
He met the grave evil of sin with a remedy infinite in price: one of the divine Persons of the Blessed Trinity, assuming human
nature, will repair in a godlike manner the evil of the Fall.
The Father gives His Son, The Son sacrifices His glory. He comes to earth not as an all-powerful Lord and Master, but
in poverty as a servant and as a child.
The life he led on earth is known to you all.
You know how from the first moment of the Incarnation I submitted to human afflictions. In my childhood I endured cold,
hunger, poverty and persecution.
In my life of labour, how often humiliation and contempt were meted out to the carpenters son. How often after a hard
days work we, my foster-father and I found that we had earned hardly sufficient to support us....and this I continued for
thirty long years.
Then, foregoing the sweet company of My Mother, I devoted myself to the task of making my heavenly Father known. I went
about teaching men that God is Love.
I went about doing good to bodies as well as souls: to the sick I gave back their health; the dead I raised to life;
and to souls? ... Ah! to souls I restored liberty .... that liberty which they had lost through sin, and I opened to
them the gates of their everlasting home - Heaven.
Then came the hour when to win salvation for them the Son of God willed to surrender life itself.
And how did he die? .... Was he surrounded by friends? .... Acclaimed as a benefactor? .... Beloved ones, you know that
the Son of God did not will to die thus.

Kids learn a lot at school. Reading, writing, math, science and social studies are just the basics. Then there's PE, Computers, Art and a foreign language for many. By the time they're done with high school, they're armed with a wealth of information. And yet, precious few are ready for the real world.
High school graduates are old enough to clean up after themselves and prepare a meal independently, yet most have barely any experience doing so. They have never sewn a button back on to a shirt, or cleaned their own toilets. They don't know what to look for when renting their first house or buying their first car. They have no experience with important paperwork such as that required to open a bank account or to change their mailing address. Theoretically, homeschooled children are at an advantage because they are exposed to these tasks a lot more than their counterparts who go to school. However, unless parents take an active approach to imparting life skills to their children, they will find that their adult children aren't ready to lead an independent life.
But where should you start? And how do you teach kids the important skills they need for the real world? Every family may have different opinions when it comes to the details, but here are some broad guidelines that will help you get started.
- Personal hygiene and grooming: Your children are ready to start taking care of themselves by age 3. Encourage your little ones to brush their teeth and wash their face on their own, but be sure to stay with them and show them the proper way to do these tasks. You can also get three-year-olds to dress themselves with help from an adult. In a year or two, your kids will be ready to do these tasks independently. By five, they should also be able to choose their clothes themselves. By eight, kids should be taking care of their personal hygiene without any reminders. If you find your kids slacking on personal hygiene, there are many fun books that you can consider to remind them of the importance of combing, brushing and bathing on a regular basis. By twelve, kids should learn how to iron their clothes. With these skills, high school graduates should be able to dress up and groom themselves for formal occasions such as a job interview.

- Cleanliness: It is important to start lessons in cleanliness early on, and teach your kids to keep their surroundings clean on a daily basis. Get your three-year-old to assist you in putting toys away. At this age, kids are also ready to take on simple tasks such as putting their used clothes in a laundry hamper and taking their used plates to the kitchen sink/dishwasher. Over the next few years, have the kids take on additional tasks such as wiping counters, clearing the table after a meal, making beds and assisting in putting laundered clothes away. By nine, your kids are ready to fold clothes, wash dishes, use a vacuum cleaner and sweep and mop floors. In a few more years, kids can start using the washing machine and dryer on their own. Many homeschooling families struggle with getting the house clean on a regular basis. Assigning chores and printing chore charts help a great deal. Ensure that each child has a list of daily tasks that stay the same, and a list of weekly tasks that are rotated.
- Finances: Learning to deal with money and manage finances is an essential skill for young adults, and one that can be learnt early in life. Your child will begin learning about money in first grade, and you can begin lessons in practical life at about the same time. Allow your young learners to count out money for you at the grocery store. By third grade, they can start going to the store for you and paying for their purchases without help. If your kids play pet games like Neopets, encourage them to get involved with monetary tasks in the game such as setting up a bank account, investing in stocks and running a store. This will give them a deep understanding of the economy that is hard to teach any other way. It will also teach them about important aspects of managing money as an adult. Give them pocket money and have them buy the toys they want out of their own money to teach budgeting and careful spending.

- Food and nutrition: Help your kids learn what goes into their daily meals by involving them in your kitchen chores. Get your seven year olds to assist you in simple tasks such as measuring out ingredients, stirring and pouring. Teach them to make no-cook dishes such as sandwiches without help. By the time they're ten, they're ready to follow a recipe and prepare a simple meal. You can also get their opinion while planning meals for the week and encourage them to take into consideration the ingredients on hand and nutritive value while making their suggestions. In a few more years, they can plan meals, create grocery lists, go grocery shopping and cook the entire meal independently.
Obviously, this list is far from complete. Think about the other skills you want your kids to have by the time they're adults and then go about giving them the experiences they need to develop those skills. It's not going to come to them any other way!

|339 Jefferson Street. Fayette PVA.
The old house, according to records of the Fayette County PVA, was built around 1890* and is another example of Lexington's disappearing vernacular architecture. The property owner as of January 1 was Dixon Enterprises, LLC, but the demolition permit reveals that LFUCG Code Enforcement is the applicant/owner. Dixon owns a significant amount of the center of the block.
|339 Jefferson Street, then numbered 181 Jefferson, on the 1901 Sanborn Map. UK Libraries.
On August 27, 1910, the Lexington Leader reported that "the funeral services over the body of Mrs. Nannie L. Harvey of 339 Jefferson street, who died Friday afternoon will be held Sunday afternoon, the burial taking place in the Lexington Cemetery." She was survived by her husband, the sole beneficiary under her will which was probated in November of 1910.
The Jefferson Street corridor is currently one of Lexington's most active and exciting districts with new development and investment filling the area. Demolition of vernacular structures like these shotguns I highlighted last year is often a side effect of a historic area's popularity. Other alternatives, like infill and redevelopment of blighted areas like what is going on in NoLi, exist.
It remains to be seen what will occur on this site. But until we know, RIP 339 Jefferson (ca. 1900-2016). After nearly six score together, we hardly knew thee.
