The new Cabinet: A statement of intent?
Driving from Bushmills to Belfast yesterday afternoon, I listened to Theresa May's first speech as Prime Minister with Neil Wilson. It goes without saying that as members of Conservatives for Liberty's executive team, we have both been very critical of Mrs May throughout her time in the Home Office.
But listening to her words, we were pleasantly surprised. Yes, it was all a bit 'One Nation-y', but it also spoke to some of our fundamental Conservative values. My biggest hope is that the new Prime Minister will recognise the power of markets to achieve our shared aims. And this hope was lifted as Mrs May spoke these words:
"The Government I lead will be driven, not by the interests of the privileged few, but by yours. We will do everything we can to give you more control over your lives."
As the news of the first Cabinet appointments came in, that hope was sustained further. Boris Johnson to the Foreign Office, David Davis in charge of negotiations to leave the EU, and Philip Hammond – who has a reputation as a fiscal hawk – the new Chancellor.
Liam Fox (finally) returns to the government with a new brief – leading our trade negotiations with the rest of the world. This new role and the appointment of Dr Fox to it is a strong, positive signal of our new Prime Minister's intentions.
Patrick McLoughlin, former Secretary of State for Transport (a job now taken by Chris Grayling), is now Party Chairman. This is an interesting choice. McLoughlin addressed the Conservative Party conference in 1984 as a working miner, and is one of the few members of the House of Commons who worked with his hands. I will be very interested to see how his chairmanship of the party develops, and take his appointment as a further signal of Theresa May's intended re-orientation of the party
There have been a few sackings, too. Welcome exits include George Osborne and Nicky Morgan, but I was sad to see Michael Gove has been sacked. Yes, Gove made grave errors of judgement in the past couple of weeks, but he is a great reformer and his capability as a Minister should not have been sacrificed.
Another sad loss is former Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers. CfL NI rated her capabilities, and the right people are pleased to see her go – including Sinn Féin. The Northern Ireland job is now taken by James Brokenshire, a former Minister in the Home Office under Theresa May, and we wish him all the best.
Stephen Crabb has resigned from the Department for Work & Pensions 'in the best interests of his family'. Given recent revelations, it seems sensible for him to retire from front line politics – at least for awhile. His job has been taken by Damian Green, a close ally of Theresa May. This change may mean the Prime Minister has a new agenda for the department.
There have been some promotions, too. Liz Truss is now Secretary of State for Justice, taking Gove's old job. Justine Greening takes the Education brief. Amber Rudd takes up Theresa May's old post as Home Secretary. And to be honest, I'm not a fan of any of these and think they have been promoted beyond their capabilities. Given the noises we heard about Mrs May aspiring to a 50:50 gender split in Cabinet, it worries me that these women may have been promoted as a gesture to 'equality'.
More positively, Priti Patel, who is on the record as saying the Department for International Development should be scrapped, has now been made Secretary of State for that department. I hope this is a statement of intent about the future of international aid.
Andrea Leadsom, the former leadership candidate, has been given DEFRA. This is a smart move – support within the Party for Andrea meant she needed to be given a Cabinet job, and this role means she will be responsible for managing the repatriation of a range of issues that are currently governed by the EU – chief among them agriculture & farming subsidies, and our fisheries.
The former Department for Business, Innovation and Skills has seen some changes – Sajid Javid, the previous Minister, has now gone to look after communities and local government. The skills part of his brief has been rolled back in to education, and the Department for Energy and Climate Change – Amber Rudd's old brief – has been rolled into the new Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. This is now headed by Greg Clark, and will hopefully mark a shift away from 'green crap' and towards an energy policy that is better for our energy intensive industries – including the mired steel industry.
In all, it's not the Cabinet I would have chosen, but it could have been a whole lot worse. Conservatives for Liberty will continue to work hard and advocate for freer markets and smaller government – help us by becoming a member.

Multiple efforts on the move in the Alabama Legislature would make toll roads and privatization available as options to pay for roadwork.
Gov. Bob Riley is in favor of pursuing alternative methods to fund transportation projects. The governor said revenue collected from the state's fuel tax cannot keep up with road and bridge needs. He also said that matching funds from the federal government aren't enough to cover the gap, The Huntsville Times reported.
To make matters worse, toll advocates say the lack of revenue from fuel taxes is an even bigger problem because of soaring costs for construction materials, including asphalt, concrete and steel.
Riley said that increasing taxes on gasoline and diesel is not the answer. A better solution could be toll roads, he said.
With that in mind, a bill nearing passage at the statehouse would move Alabama one step closer to having toll roads.
The Senate Commerce, Transportation and Utilities Committee voted 6-1 to advance a bill – HB70 – to the full Senate that would allow the state's Toll Road, Bridge and Tunnel Authority to enter into public-private partnerships. The House already approved it on a 96-3 vote.
Private entities would be allowed to build and collect tolls on roads and bridges.
Supporters say the bill would help the state meet major highway needs without increasing taxes. Opponents say toll roads amount to an extra tax, when fuel and other taxes should cover road building.
Another House-approved bill awaiting consideration on the Senate floor also promotes tolling. The measure – HB101 – would authorize the creation of a separate toll road, bridge and tunnel authority for Montgomery County.
A nearly identical bill – HB60 – includes a provision to give the public advance notice of tolling projects and fees charged to road users.
The legislation would require 90 days notice to the public about new toll road or bridge projects. Public hearings would be held 45 days prior to implementation of toll rates. Subsequent rate increases would be preceded by a 90-day notice and a public hearing.
HB60 is in the House Government Operations Committee.

At GDC this year, Chris Hecker (Indie Game Jam, Spore, Spy Party) gave a brief rant on the state of game jams, compos, and the scene that revolves around them. Chris himself is no stranger to the jam/compo circuit, being one of the founders of the Indie Game Jam back in 2001. Here's what he had to say.

I don't imagine this will strike a nerve with
anyone many around here. After all, if you hop in to our IRC room during the off season, you can catch many developers working on what they consider their "main projects". And sometimes those main projects started or were seeded by a compo. We're all about taking what you've learned or made here and going above and beyond the 48. We encourage it, since we do it ourselves. To the IGF, to Kongregate, to the App Store and beyond.

A new fisheries patrol vessel, which is set to become a familiar sight along the coastline from Tyne to Tweed, was officially named by the Duchess of Northumberland this week.
The new £700,000 vessel for the Northumberland Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority (NIFCA) is called St Aidan, after one of Northumberland's most illustrious saints, and she was christened at her berth in North Shields on Tuesday with a traditional smashing of the bottle.
NIFCA's district extends six nautical miles into the sea and runs from the Scottish border in the north to the southern border of North Tyneside Council in the south, or the midpoint of the River Tyne. It also includes river estuaries and the existing UK and EU and international marine protected areas.
Ahead of the launch, we took a trip aboard the 16-metre GRP (glass reinforced plastic) catamaran, which replaces the 14-year-old St Oswald, to learn more about her enforcement and environmental work.
As well as being new, St Aidan is also much more efficient, with double the speed of her predecessor, while using only half the amount of fuel. She has a top speed of around 23/24 knots – as well as a cruising speed of about 18 knots – compared to 13 knots on St Oswald.
This means she can cover the 60 miles to Berwick at the northern extremity of the patrol area from her base in North Shields in three hours; less than half the time taken by St Oswald.
The crew used St Oswald from 2001 until the start of this year, but it came to the point where both engines and both gearboxes needed taking out, while all the electronics needed reconditioning, which would have cost several hundred thousand pounds.
The organisation is jointly funded via a precept by Northumberland County Council and North Tyneside Council, with about 80 per cent of its funding coming from Northumberland and another 13 per cent from North Tyneside.
NIFCA has a patrol boat fund and each year, it sets aside money from this precept to fund new boats, which helped fund the £700,000 St Aidan.
"The IFCAs cannot borrow money, but we have been putting money away each year so we are very fortunate," explained NIFCA's chief fishery officer, Al Browne, who has worked for NIFCA and its predecessor for 20 years.
He said that because they do a lot more environmental survey work now, a catamaran hull was more suitable as it is more stable, while the GRP construction provides strength.
Plus, St Aidan is purpose-built to do both the enforcement and environmental work, an example of the latter being NIFCA's 14-year-old V-notching programme that sees berried lobsters (female lobsters with their eggs attached) being purchased back from traders and returned to the sea during the peak lobster season of summer and early autumn.
In 2011, the Sea Fisheries Committees (SFCs) were replaced by the IFCAs, of which there are 10 around the English coast; Scotland and Wales are separately managed.
As a SFC, Al said that their workload was 75 per cent enforcement and 25 per cent environmental, whereas now the percentages are reversed.
St Aidan carries a 5.3-metre RIB (rigid inflatable boat) on the back, which enables the crew to travel up to 36 knots when carrying out enforcement work and approaching fishing vessels.
The A-frame that launches the RIB into the water doubles as the frame for some of the high-tech equipment, such as underwater cameras and different types of Sonar equipment.
For this multi-purpose vessel, NIFCA had to go through a relatively lengthy procurement process with Great Yarmouth-based Goodchild Marine Services, designing a vessel of this kind for the first time, winning the tender.
"It really is bespoke," Al said. "We are the first vessel and we worked very closely with them. We all worked together and got the boat the way we wanted."
The build started in February 2014 and was finished by May this year and it is hoped St Aidan will last about 15 years.
She will go out two or three times a week, while the team also has a larger RIB on a trailer and carries out shore-based work, checking fishermen returning to port.
Al said: "I would say 95 per cent of our local fishermen are absolutely fine and know what they are doing.
"It's detrimental to them if they are catching small crabs, lobsters or shellfish and affecting breeding because that's their livelihood.
"As with anything, there's a small minority and we try to focus on them."
Tuesday's naming ceremony was a chance for representatives of Northumberland and North Tyneside councils to see the new vessel, which will be cruising our coastline for years to come.
It took place at St Aidan's base at Royal Quays Marina, North Shields, formerly a commercial port for coal, but now a modern, bustling marina with the coal stacks behind replaced by modern waterside apartments.
The marina is located conveniently close to the Fish Quay, home to most of the region's fishing fleet. Al, who grew up in North Shields and previously worked for the Port of Tyne, said that in winter there can be up to 100 vessels there as the big trawlers from Scotland and Ireland come over for the prawn and langoustine season.
NIFCA chairman, Northumberland County councillor Robert Arckless, said: "Our coastline is one of our greatest treasures and it's vital the seas are managed responsibly for present and future generations.
"This is a proud day for everyone associated with NIFCA and the new vessel is sure to become a familiar sight to all those involved with the fishing industry in our region."
Al added: "We are absolutely delighted with the new vessel and the extra capability she provides.
"The NIFCA would like to thank all concerned and we look forward to St Aidan providing excellent service to the people of Northumberland and North Tyneside for a number of years."

Oftentimes, clients wonder why they might see different results for specific search terms on their search engines compared to what they see in their search engine rankings reports. There are many reasons for these discrepancies:
- Do you visit your property site or search these terms frequently? If so, search engines will likely serve your site higher on the search results knowing that this is likely the site you're looking for. (Please note, this same strategy does not apply to PPC ads).
- Search engine ranking positions vary constantly based on several different factors – factors include:
- A user's search & website traffic history
- A user's location
- A user's IP address
- Website content:
- How much content is on the site
- How frequently the content is updated
- How relevant the content is to what the user searched
- Site's authority & authenticity
- Website traffic
- Search engine algorithm updates
Due to the various factors involved, your search engine rankings may be completely different from that of your coworkers or what you see reporting in your search engine rankings reports, which provides the average rank for specific search terms.

Weight Watchers Diet
by Rebecca J. Stahl, MA
Weight Watchers is a commercial weight loss plan that focuses on making good food choices and being physically active. With the PointsPlus system, values are assigned to food, drinks, and Weight Watcher recipes. You receive a daily point allowance (PointsPlus Target) based on personal factors.
The goal is to lose 1-2 pounds (lb) (0.5-0.9 kilogram [kg]) per week.
How Is This Diet Supposed to Work?
Dieters learn how to make more nutritious food choices by following PointsPlus, a program to monitor your food intake. To determine the PointsPlus value of foods, Weight Watchers has a special formula that takes into account the amounts of protein, carbohydrate, fat, and fiber that a food contains. The program focuses on foods that:
PointsPlus is also designed to be flexible so you can have an occasional indulgence, attend a special event, or go out to dinner.
The daily PointsPlus Target reflects the amount of energy your body needs to lose weight based on factors like your gender, age, height, and weight. If your daily PointsPlus Target, for instance, is 39, then you may want to break that down to use 8 points at breakfast, 10 at lunch, 15 at dinner, and 2 snacks (each worth 3 points). Weight Watchers offers lots of meal ideas with the points already calculated, like a serving of lasagna (worth 6 points) or grilled chicken salad (8 points).
While counting points is a big part of the program, Weight Watchers also encourages participants to be more physically active.
What's Involved?
The first step is to decide whether to attend the meetings in-person or do the program online.
Someone who has had success with Weight Watchers leads the weekly meetings. At the first meeting, you will be weighed (in private), create weight-loss goals with the leader, and learn the basics. The leader introduces new topics each week and offers tips. Group members encourage each other by offering strategies and sharing recipes.
Like the in-person meetings, the online program creates individualized weight-loss goals. But, by joining Weight Watchers Online, you can access the program from your computer or mobile phone. There are online tools to track food choices, activities, and weight. You also have access to the Weight Watchers' nutritional database, recipes, restaurant guides, exercise routines, and fitness demos.
Additional Features of This Diet
Since men and women may have different issues and approaches to tackling weight loss, Weight Watchers designed eTools for men who would like to attend the weekly meetings. There is also an online program that features guides, meal ideas, and workout routines customized for men.
What Does the Research Say?
Some studies support Weight Watchers. For example, a randomized trial with 423 adults found that dieters who followed the Weight Watchers program lost more weight than the group who tried to slim down on their own. Another large randomized trial involving 772 overweight and obese adults found that the dieters who followed the Weight Watchers program lost twice as much weight at the 12-month follow-up as the group who received standard care from their doctors.
How does Weight Watchers compare to other popular diets? Researchers gathered data on the Atkins, Ornish, Weight Watchers, and Zone diets. They found that, overall, these 4 diets were effective in helping people lose weight after one year. Weight loss ranged from 4.6 lb (2.1 kg) to 7.3 lb (3.3 kg), with Weight Watchers participants losing an average 6.6 lb (3 kg).
A large observational study done by the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS) found similar results—people that were referred to Weight Watchers lost an average of 6.2 lb (2.8 kg).
Are There Any Concerns With This Diet?
Being successful in Weight Watchers requires that you track your PointsPlus values, activities, and weight. If you enjoy using the computer or your smart phone, you may not mind logging in to update your data. But, for others, it may become problematic to track this every day. Weight Watchers does offer another option called Simply Filling, which focuses on eating nutritious and filling foods without tracking points.
The monthly cost may also be a challenge, especially considering that you must buy all of the groceries. While there are ongoing specials, it may cost about $18 monthly for the in-person meetings or the online program. (Note: There may also be a one-time sign-up fee.)
Bottom Line
Overall, Weight Watchers provides a healthy, long-term approach to losing weight. The emphasis is on getting support (through in-person meetings or online communities), learning how to make better food choices, and being physically active. The goal is to lose weight gradually by making positive lifestyle changes.

Create a Shredded Paper Flower Bouquet
Who knew shredded paper could be so beautiful? This project makes a great gift for someone special in your child's life. Your youngster will love ripping up colorful sheets of paper to make his very own floral bouquet. These flower collages will remain vivid and beautiful for years to come!
What You Need:
- Watercolor paper, 11" x 17"
- Flesh-colored paper for the arm and hand
- Various shades of green construction paper for stems and leaves
- Brightly colored construction papers for flowers
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Glue stick
What You Do:
- Help your paper florist trace his arm and hand on the flesh colored paper.
- Have him cut out his paper arm and put it aside.
- Place the white paper in a vertical, or portrait-style, position.
- Now he can lay the paper hand across the bottom of the white paper. The fingers should almost touch the end of the paper. Cut down the arm part of the colored paper so it matches flush with the white paper.
- Help to glue just the arm part of the cut-out to the white paper. Keep the paper hand and fingers free from glue at this point.
- Together, enjoy cutting and tearing long thick and thin stems out of the green papers, then cut and tear various leaf shapes out of the green paper including big and small, round and fat, and long and thin shapes.
- Arrange the stems so they're in between the "fingers" of the hand. Some of them should overlap the thumb, but all should go under the fingers.
- Help your child glue down the thumb and the stems from the bottom up. Do NOT glue the tops of the stems yet.
- Make the fingers appear to be "holding" the flowers by folding the fingers under and gluing them, or just cut the fingers off to give the effect of bent fingers.
- Glue the fingers down.
- Now he can place the leaves all around the stems and glue them down
- Next, you can both tear, rip and cut colored paper into the shapes of petals!
- Glue down the petals. Overlapping stems and petals will look great on this project.
His beautiful collage bouquet is ready to be presented to someone he loves!

Alligators?? In Ohio?? It's true! Over the course of the last few years several, not one or two, but several American Alligators have been found in the Miami Valley of Ohio. So many in fact that they no longer receive attention from the media. They have been found in Greene, Montgomery, and Miami Counties. Most have been pulled from The great and Little Miami Rivers. It began in 2000, when a man on a fall canoe trip pulled a 6 foot Alligator from the cold Autumn waters of the Little Miami River. He took the Alligator home, kept it in his bathtub and alerted authorities who in turn called the Cincinnati Zoo. Much to the dismay of the individual who found the Gator, the Zoo refused to take the creature off his hands. In 2001, there were scattered reports of Alligator sightings in the same River systems, however none were verified, and no captures took place that we know off. In 2002, once again Alligators made headlines in the Miami Valley. 17....that's right 17 American Alligators were caught in or near the Great and Little Miami Rivers. They ranged in size from 1 to 6 feet. In downtown Dayton a 6 foot Alligator was caught basking in the Sun. In Miami County, a motorist got the surprise of their life when a 6 foot Gator walked from a cornfield and was struck by thier vehicle. UPDATE! While this section was created in 2002, Alligators have been continuing to "pop" up in the Miami Valley. So much so that they rarely get attention from the Media anymore. In the Spring of 2011 a 6 foot Alligator was found in the cool waters of The Mad River in Champaign County and has become a "resident" at a local Fish Hatchery.
Along with the return of various wildlife in the Ohio Valley, Rabies has also made a big comeback. In several counties many different types of animals have been found with the disease. Bats and Racoons seem to be the most commonly found animals to carry the disease. But with the population explosion of Coyote in the Ohio Valley, the danger of the disease spreading is a common fear among Wildlife Officers. So when you are out in the woods or even your back yard and you see an animal acting strange, steer clear of it and notify authorities. Always remember that encounters with wildlife are almost always an accident. Most Wild Animals will avoid Humans at all costs, when they don't, it's time for concern. Racoons walking around in your backyard in the middle of the day is a sure sign something is wrong. Never approach an animal in the wild for any reason!

Porsche launched a mid-engined roadster model called Boxster in 1996 and it was inspired by the 1993 Boxster Concept.
The first generation known internally as 986 was powered by a 2.5l flat 6 cylinder engine. By sharing parts with other models Porsche was able to reduce costs and many experts believe that the launch of the Boxster saved the company from acquisition. This series used Porsche's first water-cooled non-front engine, a flat 6 cylinder unit. A minor facelift was performed in 2003.
The second generation was unveiled at the 2004 Paris Motor Show and is internally known as 987. In terms of design the car didn't show many differences to the previous generation. The biggest change could be seen in the headlights which were now more similar to ones used in the Carrera GT. The engine was the same flat 6 cylinder from the first generation. In 2007 the Boxster received a revised engine the produced 5 extra horsepower.
Also known as 981, the third generation was debuted in the beginning of 2012. It is lighter, features a longer wheelbase. The new Boxster is available in Boxster and Boxster S versions, both being powered by flat-six engines with direct petrol injection. The base model features a 2.7-litre unit with a power output of 265hp. The Boxster S is powered by a 3.4-litre engine with 315hp. Both engines can be combined with the standard manual six-speed gearbox or the optional the seven-speed Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK).
This Porsche model has received many awards throughout its lifespan. It has been recommended and considered one of the best Porsche models by many experts.
Porsche's founder, the Austrian Ferdinand Porsche started out in the automobile business by working in the Lohner company as a car engineer. While still young, F. Porsche captivated the industry's attention as the Lohner-Porsche electric car debuted in the 1900 World Fair in Paris, for he created the wheel hub engines. Later in that same year, he built up both a four-wheel drive race-car and the world's fi... more

Let me first thank @AuntyTech for sharing such a great web tool. After playing with the web site I just had to share my ideas with you on its applicability in a science classroom. Elementary teachers this is definitely a handy tool for your little learners! Buncholinks is exactly what the website claims: a better way to share a BUNCH of links! For today's example, I decided to focus on Life Science resources. Instead of posting a bunch of websites on my blog or on a handout for my students like this:
I can access my Buncholinks account and follow the next steps for sharing with my students.
1. Copy and paste my preferred links into the box on the right of the Buncholinks website.
* Remember you can only have one website link per line.
2. Select Build a Bunch!
3. Create a name for your bunch.
4. Select the edit button to give each link a note or title.
5. Locate the Share with Friends link at the bottom of the page. Copy and paste to your website or type on class handout.
6. Select continue to your bunch.
Click here, to see my Life Science Buncholinks
Another great feature of this website is the widget tool. If you'd like to keep your bunch of links in one easy to find place then I recommend this feature.
Applications in any science class:
1. Create a list of websites for students to analyze. Have students write comments on the reliability of the information for each website. Students may or may not post their first name with the comment, but it depends on objectives for the lesson. Example: Create links to claims and have students analyze websites for evidence supporting claims and write their comments for each link.
2. Provide students with a list of acceptable websites they may use for a project.
I would love to hear your ideas for the potential of this website in your classrooms.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Vanguard University men's basketball team made history on two fronts Friday by defeating Benedictine of Kansas, 81-70, in the second round of the NAIA Tournament at Municipal Arena.
Junior DeAngelo Jones had 25 points and senior Golden State Athletic Conference Player of the Year Preston Wynne added 20 to help the No. 6-seeded Lions (29-6) advance to Saturday's quarterfinals. Vanguard, which set a school record for wins with 29 and had never before advanced past the second round, will face defending national champion Georgetown of Kentucky (24-10) at 2 p.m. PT.
Georgetown overcame a 19-point first-half deficit to upset No. 3-seeded William Carey, 98-90, in another second-round game Friday.
Jones made four of seven field-goal attempts, including two of four from three-point range. He was 15 for 18 from the free-throw line and added four rebounds.
Junior Keith Mason had 11 points and eight rebounds and junior guard Chris Gorman had 11 points for the winners, who have now won six in a row and eight of their last 10.
Freshman Zach Allmon chipped in 10 rebounds and four points off the bench as Vanguard won the rebounding battle, 40-36, and committed just six turnovers, half as many as Benedictine (23-9).
Vanguard led, 31-19, at halftime and never trailed after intermission.
Georgetown was down, 47-41, at halftime and outscored William Carey, 57-43, in the final 20 minutes to advance.

This year my birthday fell on a Saturday. While I work everyday (toddler doesn't take a break), Saturday meant Andrew could spend the day with me on my birthday. Call me selfish, but I love being able to have my hubby with me on my special day.
Our leisurely morning included opening gifts and card from hubby and toddler. The toddler had with Daddy's help decorated the card with a outline of his hand and foot. Daddy ingeniously included coins that Gideon has been treasuring with a note, "Dear Mommy, use these to get something special for yourself." After a little while Gideon comes finding us with a gleeful grin showing us the birthday card and the coins he "re-found". His gift-giving has room for improvement. Daddy's skills are quite good though. He gifted me two pie themed gifts: a pair of pie birds (always wanted to try them since watching Alton Brown's apple pie recipe) and a pie crust shield. Thanks Andrew, you set a nice example for Gideon.
After nap time for our recovering toddler had been completed, we headed out for our birthday adventures as a family.
After an errand or two we finally made it to our final goal destination: 320 Below.
We've eagerly been waiting the perfect opportunity to go back to this awesome ice cream joint and introduce Gideon to the geeky wonders of liquid nitrogen.
He was just about as enthralled as his parents were with the "cool" process used to make the ice cream.
We had Tiramisu, Cinnamon Apple, Peanut butter with honey comb, and Pink Guava.
We then rushed home to change into fancier attire and meet our friends who were going to watch Gideon for us. The toddler was fed a quick dinner and our friends arrived eager to take care of their charge for the evening. After instructing them on all the details, we took a few minutes to sing Happy Birthday and share some cake while the boy was still awake. (And my friend sweetly brought me a gift too!)
I had made a cake using a recipe for a small version of a snickerdoodle cake embellished with apple pie flowers. It isn't often that I have an excuse to bake a cake, and even less these days since we try to limit our intake of sweet sugary goods (except maybe on birthdays)! So, I was really happy to spend an afternoon baking up this sweet and pretty cake the day before my birthday.
That being said, we were really glad our friends could share it with us so we weren't left chiseling away at it each evening.
We said goodbye to our growing boy who seemed more interested in showing his new companions his toys than saying goodbye to his parents. Sugared up from ice cream and cake during the afternoon, we were ready to sit on a bus, and walk to the restaurant and wait some more before eating our dinner!
The setting for the birthday dinner was 7 Adam, a unique restaurant combined with an art gallery. It combined the classic charm of a tutor style building with the modern and clean lines of a hip gallery. We occupied a quiet table against a window in a hallway, just intimate enough to be romantic, while keeping a nice view of the outdoors and the pieces of art in the spacious setting indoors.
The food was delicious. Need I say more?
We both ended our meals happy with what we had chosen, and glad we didn't order anything more. The thoughts of any desserts were distant, as in, "we'll eat more cake at home if we become hungry later…" But then, the wait staff happened upon us. They proceeded to sing happy birthday and present me with a dessert platter while Andrew grinned from ear to ear.
Despite not ordering dessert we had a beautifully prepared birthday assortment of strawberries, lava cake, and ice cream to down before we headed home. It was a tall order, but we accomplished it. A sweet sugary ending to a wonderfully sweet birthday.

It didn't take long for the White House to join in the diversionary tactic of attacking Scott McClellan rather than addressing the substance of what he's said:
The White House reacted angrily today to scathing criticisms of President Bush and members of his inner circle that appear in a new memoir written by Scott McClellan, the former White House press secretary who was forced out in 2006 after three tumultuous years.
In excerpts from the book, set to be published next week, Mr. McClellan writes that President Bush "convinces himself to believe what suits his needs at the moment," and has engaged in "self-deception" to justify his political ends. He calls the decision to invade Iraq a "serious strategic blunder," and says that the biggest mistake the Bush White House made was "a decision to turn away from candor and honesty when those qualities were most needed."
But Dana Perino, the current White House press secretary, had harsh words for Mr. McClellan, calling him "sad" and suggesting that he mischaracterized his years in the West Wing to sell books.
"Scott, we now know, is disgruntled about his experience at the White House," she said. "For those of us who fully supported him, before, during and after he was press secretary, we are puzzled. It is sad. This is not the Scott we knew."
She said that President Bush was told of some of the excerpts but would not be commenting on them because "he has more pressing matters than to spend time commenting on books by former staffers."
Perino's line mirrors that of the President's former chief political advisor:
Karl Rove, a principal target of many of Mr. McClellan's charges and the former deputy chief of staff for President Bush, reacted immediately on Tuesday night. Speaking on Fox News, where he is now a commentator, Mr. Rove said Mr. McClellan was not even present at many of the meetings he describes and suggested that he was not writing truthfully.
"First of all, this doesn't sound like Scott. It really doesn't," he said. "Not the Scott McClellan I've known for a long time. Second of all, it sounds like somebody else. It sounds like a left-wing blogger.
"If he had these moral qualms," he added, "he should have spoken up about them."
This is something I've heard repeated by several commentators today. The fact of the matter is that, unlike some previous Press Secretary's McClellan didn't have the access to the the types of meetings where Iraq policy was being discussed so, he didn't have the opportunity to speak up in the first place.
Second, the fact that he remained loyal to the President while employed by him but has decided to speak up now that he has left public service is not all that unusual; it's something we've seen in former members of Administrations from Reagan to Bush I to Clinton.
What was McClellan supposed to do ? Get up in front of the press corps and denounce his boss publicly ?
If he'd done that, the same people criticizing him for not speaking up back then would be denouncing him as a traitor, which is, incidentally, a word I've heard several times today from some of Limbaugh's listeners. If McClellan is telling the truth, he's not a traitor.
For the increasingly small numbers of true believers, the efforts of the Bush Administration, Fox News, and the right wing radio talkers to focus on attacking McClellan personally while ignoring the reality of what he's saying, especially about Iraq, will no doubt be enough, but it's unlikely to work for the rest of the public:
So he's disguntled (which means unhappy, which must mean happy employees are gruntled..).
And a "former staffer" which indicates he really doesn't matter anymore.
The problem for the White House is that there is now a large volume of media material documenting the fact that the Bush adminsitration has a credibility gap problem for traceable reasons.
Unless, of course, you drink the Kool-Aid.

If you have either a Playstation 3 or xbox 4 or Xbox One particular, it should be your number one alternative when it comes to choosing a platform that can be played NBA 2K16. These two will be the latest generation of game titles consoles, which arguably implies you're going to get the very best experience out of these.

PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 system
The current generation of units may be our number one decision when it comes to picking up NBA 2K16, but that doesn't mean an individual won't enjoy their continue generation counterparts. NBA 2K16 is available on both major final generation consoles, including the Ps3 and Xbox 360, so you can continue to play it with a previous gen console.

It is very available on most Android products through the Google Play Retail outlet and iOS devices from the Apple App Store.
This type is also free with in-app purchases, making it the most cost-effective option.
In conclusion, you've probably already got one of the above platforms readily available to learn NBA 2K16 on, thus there's no reason never to invest in one of the largest sporting titles of last year.

The 2012-2013 Ashland University Spectrum Series closes with the Philadelphia-based professional dance company Eleone Dance Theatre presenting the Ohio Premiere of Dianne McIntyre's "Up the Road a-Piece" on Tuesday, April 16, at 7:30 p.m. at Hugo Young Theatre.
Produced by the College of Arts and Sciences, Ashland University's premiere Spectrum Series presents internationally recognized figures in the arts to enhance cultural experiences for the University community and surrounding areas. The Spectrum Series is made possible with support from The Ohio Arts Council with state tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural enrichment for all Ohioans, and the Ashland University Activities Budget and Chartering Committee.
Presenting modern dance that is passionate, spirited and totally urban, Eleone Dance Theatre is an exhilarating and soul-stirring dance company presenting a spectrum of works that are multicultural, intergenerational, socially and visually appealing to all audiences. Eleone dancers provide not just a dance performance, but a dance experience that inspires and energizes audiences of all ages. The company has a diverse repertoire of works that are contemporary modern, spiritual, rhythm and blues, African, as well as hip-hop in theme.
For their performance in Ashland, they will showcase the Ohio Premier of "Up the Road a-Piece," which is choreographed by Cleveland native and acclaimed dance artist Dianne McIntyre. Premiered in 2011, "Up the Road a-Piece" weaves timeless tales of joy, heartache and neighborly bonds throughout seven vignettes. With music recordings by the Carolina Chocolate Drops and costumes by David Burdick, the seven vignettes include: Cornbread and Butterbeans, Jack O'Diamonds, The Call, Why Don't You Do Right?, Genuine, Waltz and Hi Ho Fiddle Aye Dey.
An Ohio native, McIntyre—acclaimed dance artist, choreographer, theatre artist and cultural pioneer—has performed virtually around the world, from Hollywood to Broadway to Europe and back, on big stages, dance floors, film sets and concert halls. After earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the prestigious Department of Dance of The Ohio State University and teaching at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, McIntyre moved to New York City in 1970 and founded her dance/music ensemble Sound in Motion in 1972. Known for her work in modern dance, as well as in theatre (Broadway, London and regional theatre), her work appears in films and television which earned her an Emmy nomination. McIntyre dissolved her company in 1988 to pursue other creative outlets and since then has been busy choreographing, teaching and directing. After 30 years in New York, she returned to her hometown of Cleveland.
Starting with material culled from the Piedmont region of the Carolinas, the Carolina Chocolate Drops sought to freshly interpret this work and highlight the central role African-Americans played in shaping our nation's popular music from its beginnings more than a century ago. The virtuosic trio's approach dips into styles of Southern black music from the 1920s and '30s including string-band music, jug-band music, fife and drum, early jazz. They garnered the 2010 Best Traditional Folk Album Grammy proving that the old-time, fiddle and banjo-based could be a living, breathing, ever-evolving sound.
In addition to the main stage evening performance, Eleone Dance Theatre will present a school matinee performance on Tuesday, April 16, at 9 a.m. in Hugo Young Theatre. All seats are $2 each and can be reserved through Tricia Applegate, coordinator of Performing Arts Publicity & Events, at 419.289.5950.

With dance studio etiquette and format, the dance class will include the warm-up, center floor, across the floor, combination(s) and closing along with engaging in one or more dance idioms with brief historical/social context.

They're fighting for you.
For over a year, families in Longford, Victoria have been making big sacrifices to take a stand against some of the biggest companies in Australia.
They were sacked and offered their jobs back with 30% pay cuts and a cruel anti-family roster.
Since 20 June 2017, they've been out on a picket line fighting for their jobs and their dignity.
It hasn't been easy. They've come together to keep a 24/7 protest running through temperatures of -6 degrees Celsius in winter right through to the hot summer. They are protesting because they are ready to work on fair pay and fair rosters.
They need our support to keep up this important fight. The workers are raising money so they can continue to pay the bills and feed their families while they fight for justice. If they don't have the resources to stay afloat and keep fighting, more employers across the country will think they can get away with this too.
It's been hard going. We would appreciate if you could donate a few dollars so the 200 families can keep up this important fight for all working people.

An all-digital control package will soon be standard on many machining center models from Cincinnati Machine (Cincinnati, Ohio). For now, the technology is standard on the "Arrow" line of vertical machining centers. Cincinnati didn't begin the upgrade with its high-end machines, but instead with its lowest-cost VMC family.
Part of what the company means by "all-digital" is digital axis drives and digital scale positioning. Digital drives permit improved precision at high feed rates. And digital linear scales make precision more consistent than previous position-measurement devices because they can provide accuracy unaffected by wear or temperature changes. Completing the all-digital package is a digital vector-drive integral-motor spindle. This lets the Arrow put more peak spindle power into the cut, the company says.
Featured Content
Why make the digital improvements to the Arrow machines first? The answer comes from Jim Spearman, Cincinnati's product manager for VMCs. He says the company is starting with the low-end machines because "this is where the biggest number of machines are bought, and where accuracy improvements will have the greatest impact."
Job shops, for example, can benefit from improved precision on a low-end machine by being able to bid on higher-value work.
Meanwhile, the same improved precision can let mold shops bring some of their high speed machining disciplines down to a low-cost machine.
In fact, fast, precise contouring is where the accuracy improvements from digital technology are particularly apparent, Mr. Spearman says. Dynamic contouring accuracy for the Arrow machines is now 0.0006 inch maximum total true position error at 40 ipm. Each machine is tested at this feed rate through ball-bar plotting.
"Look at an Arrow's ball-bar plot, and you see that spikes at axis crossovers have been almost eliminated," says Mr. Spearman. In practice, this means that circular interpolation is more precise, and round-offs and overshoots that once resulted from sudden changes in tool path direction may now be eliminated.

RichTech Provides a Virtual Tour for Real Estate
RichTech recently showed off a new application of its virtual reality technology by providing individuals in the real estate industry to host a virtual tour. Rather than requiring potential homebuyers to visit the house site itself, RichTech's equipment provided the opportunity to show off all the details of a home through a virtual walk through that could be held in a more convenient spot. This greatly streamlines the real estate process for both the buyer and the agent. (http://www.richtechsystem.com/en/)
How the Virtual Tour Works
The virtual tour represents a technological breakthrough in that it combines a 3D virtual reality interface with traditional technology in order to make things easier than ever for everybody involved in the real estate industry. Customers can view every detail about the home through a computer, phone, tablet, or other mobile device. This makes it much easier to house watch and allows potential buyers to view many more homes in any given frame of time. For agents, it means that they can present the virtual tours to their clients and then arrange live house viewings only for the homes that the potential buyers seem truly interested in, thus eliminating a lot of busywork and wasted visits for all sides.
Features of the Virtual Tour
Using this system, a seller can put an entire house on display, including the bedrooms, kitchen, bathrooms, stairs, and more. The exterior of the home can also be displayed to show off the lawn and garden. On the user end, it's just a matter of using the device's touchscreen in order to maneuver through the different 3D displays. This is a potential game-changer when it comes to the real estate market because it shortens the often lengthy amount of time between house site visits and eliminates the chance that potential buyers will get stuck touring a home that they have no interest in. It can also be invaluable to buyers who are looking for homes in another city and don't have a lot of time for visits.
The Start of Something Big
The virtual tour system is only the beginning of something that can be potentially much larger in the real estate industry and other businesses. As it is, the ability to do a virtual walk through is a huge time saver and can help avoid a lot of the hassles that come with buying a home. The interface isn't limited just to real estate, though. Hotels, caterers, and other businesses can benefit by offering similar tours to customers so they can show off their strengths in advance. There are also other possibilities available for the use of RichTech system in real estate and other industries. These include products such as the interactive floor system, the Kinect interface, and more. Solutions are just waiting to be discovered.

Case IH Autoguidance
Autoguidance available at Miller Sellner. Serving your parts needs from Sleepy Eye, Bingham Lake, Slayton MN.
AFS AccuGuide™ Autoguidance Systems
AFS AccuGuide™ autoguidance systems from Case IH are designed with the precision grower in mind and eliminate the need to steer in open fields, except at row ends. You focus on the performance of the implement instead. AFS AccuGuide is compatible with:
- Puma Tractors
- Magnum™ tractors
- Steiger® tractors
- Quadtrac® tractors
- Axial-Flow 5088-7088, 5140-7140, 7120-9240 combines
AFS AccuGuide lets you maintain perfectly straight rows and return to those same rows later in the season. Thanks to its GPS technology you can enjoy control and accuracy—seed and material are applied with extreme precision, saving input costs.
Added benefits. AFS AccuGuide offers a wide range of productivity and cost-saving benefits such as:
- Fewer "skips" and "overlaps" for more precise planting, fertilizing, and tilling
- Less compaction for higher yields
- Faster field speeds to reduce your time on the job
- Reduced operator stress and fatigue
Four levels of accuracy. AFS AccuGuide systems are accurate at one, five and eight inches (depending on the source of the differential correction signal). For applications requiring more precision, sub-inch to one-inch (2.5-cm) accuracy may be achieved using a Case IH AFS AccuGuide base station. The base station correction signal provides superior accuracy and eliminates subscription costs.
Available now. Dealer-installed field kits are available for Magnum and Steiger tractor models.
Ask your Case IH dealer about AFS AccuGuide systems today!
NOTE: AFS AccuGuide provides accurate steering for field operation in adverse conditions such as rain, darkness, dust and fog. However, AFS AccuGuide cannot detect obstacles or stop automatically to avoid danger. The operator must remain vigilant and steer or stop the tractor to avoid collisions with obstacles in the field. It is always the operator's responsibility to ensure visibility is adequate to allow for safe operation of the equipment under any and all adverse conditions.
The accuracy of any guidance system is dependent on satellite communication, field location, terrain, tractor and implement condition and setup, system installation, and calibration. A field demonstration and trial is the best way to determine actual guidance system accuracy in each situation.

When I was an undergraduate in English, Shakespeare was the equivalent of the Almighty. His texts were revered as biblical in their overarching status, and we were told which critics must be treated as esteemed guides to the true significance of the Holy Word. I thought it wise not to say that I found him an exhausting exhibitionist, like an exuberant waiter standing constantly at our shoulder with yet another outrageous concoction, just when the customer craves rest, or a plate of chips.
I also recall being fascinated by the mainstays of modernism – James Joyce's Ulysses in particular – but not because, as my lecturers informed me, they represented groundbreaking moments in the history of representation. No, I wondered about how they had come to be classified alongside the kind of novels that I actually enjoyed reading. And my sense of alienation was not confined to the exuberantly celebrated avant-garde. I agreed with Byron that Wordsworth's and Coleridge's poetic personae seemed wilfully cretinous, and not only in Lyrical Ballads.
Yet even if I'd wished to voice my opinions on these authors, my attempts at academic suicide would have been hindered by the questions asked in exams, essay assignments and indeed in tutorials, which all took it for granted that the authors in question were the best available. No one explained how they had earned this ranking or merited three years of intensive study.
Later, when literary theory became an endemic feature of degree courses, the exam papers on the core modules remained much as they had been, while the theory papers expected the same examinees to accept that the canon was a bourgeois delusion and that literature per se did not exist. These parallel universes coexisted quite ludicrously. The one thing they had in common was their refusal to allow undergraduates to address a question that all of us in the real world – from the publisher to the reviewer to the customer in the bookshop – ask every time we open a book: is it any good?
Sometimes I wondered if my closeted opinions were the result of intellectual immaturity. But gradually I began to discover that I was not alone. I did not come across colleagues with similarly guilty secrets but, rather, found sympathetic echoes of my own views in neglected (and often unreprinted) works by legions of critics who, since the 17th century, treated what we now revere as the core authors with perplexity and distrust. When Ulysses and T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land were first published, more than half their reviewers saw them as no more than bizarre, transient curiosities. And before the cult of Bardolatry was established by the Romantics, the overwhelming consensus was that Shakespeare's "difficult" plays were self-indulgent gibberish.
What I would like to call for, then, is a research and teaching agenda that focuses explicitly on evaluation. We could begin by revisiting "the history of criticism", concentrating not only on the canon of worthy, well-known commentators but also on the minor reviewers, letter writers and dissenters whose opinions challenge our own complacent sense of who and what is good. In teaching, we should consider first-year modules that introduce students to the basic skill set required to distinguish the competent writer from the hopeless failure. It is a commonplace that Jeffrey Archer and E. L. James (author of Fifty Shades of Grey) are laughably bad stylists, but how do you go about proving that contention? We could look at how to differentiate between exemplars of quality, solipsists and pedlars of trash, and then move on to more complex questions about the significance and purpose of literature.
Above all, we should revise our routine perception of the history of literature and criticism as linear and conclusive, and treat it instead as an unfinished debate.
Richard Bradford is professor of English at Ulster University. His latest book, Is Shakespeare any Good? And Other Questions on How to Evaluate Literature, has recently been published by Blackwell/Wiley. He is planning networking schemes to enable those with an interest in evaluation as a subject for research and teaching to exchange ideas: firstname.lastname@example.com

Killer Mike gave a bit of post-election insight during a guest appearance on 'The Real' Wednesday morning.
As you know, the prolific rapper has been quite outspoken on political matters, as he once campaigned for Sen. Bernie Sanders during his quest for the Democratic nod.
[FLASHBACK: Killer Mike Interviews Sen. Bernie Sanders… (VIDEO)]
During his appearance on the popular talk show, Mike shared his thoughts on the election and stated he believes Hillary Clinton lost to Trump in such an overwhelming fashion because "poor white people are mad because the system that promises you something based on that, isn't gonna ever give you that."
Mike also explained that Trump won, in part, because "there just happen to be, by this country, more poor angry white people."

I had the idea for these curried cauliflower fritters ages ago, and fortunately, wrote it down in the back of my notebook. I say fortunately, because I'd completely forgotten about it until yesterday, when the book happened to fall open at that page, and I thought, "Ooh, yes! Cauliflower fritters!" And then, as if by divine intervention, I got a lovely cauli in the co-op, that had just been reduced! A bargain cauliflower. Hurrah!
My original intention was to make these just from cauliflower, but when I looked at it in the bowl, it was clear that it wasn't going to be enough food for the three of us, so I added a couple of carrots too. They added a bright colour to the interior of the fritters, as well as a delicious sweet flavour.
My curry paste is apparently pretty mild, as these were very gently spiced. You can adjust the heat level by choosing a weaker or stronger curry paste, or omitting it altogether. I think if you leave it out, you'd probably have to season quite liberally though. The curry, while not particularly strong, did give a spicy boost to the cauliflower – I think cauliflower and curry spices go really well together generally.
I was hoping Kipper would help me make these curried cauliflower and carrot fritters, but she was too busy watching Pocoyo on YouTube. She has one chance in the day to watch anything, and that's when I'm cooking, and, having recently discovered Pocoyo, she is now working her way through the backlog of episodes. It could take a while – there are at least 100 of them…
The recipe calls for matzo meal, which is readily available in kosher shops, or in the kosher sections of the major supermarkets. If you can't get hold of it, I expect that fine dried breadcrumbs would be an acceptable substitute.
We ate these with a little chopped salad of tomato, cucumber, avocado and mint. I also had a dollop of natural yogurt to dunk them in. The mixture made 16 fritters, which were swiftly seen off by DH, Kipper and me. I expect they would go further as a starter or snack.
- 350g cauliflower
- 2 medium carrots
- 1 small onion
- 2 eggs
- 55g plain flour
- 35g medium matzo meal
- 1 heaped tsp curry paste
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Cut the cauliflower into florets and boil for 8 minutes until tender. Drain, and roughly chop.
- Peel and grate the carrots. Peel and finely chop the onion.
- Mix the cauliflower, carrot and onion with the eggs, flour, matzo meal and curry paste. Mix well with a fork, mashing the ingredients together.
- Heat a little oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Dollop generous tablespoons of mixture into the pan and flatten a little - I fitted four in the pan. Fry for around 2 minutes each side, until golden brown. Add more oil to the pan as required.
- Remove the fritters from the pan and drain on kitchen paper. Eat straightaway or keep warm in a moderate oven until all the mixture has been cooked.

Rain Water Harvesting
Storing fresh natural water from the heavens
The Domestic Rainwater Harvesting system has been designed as a low cost installation for self-build projects and residential developments. BBA certified, it works by taking the rain from your roof gutters, filtering out the leaves and debris and storing the water in an underground tank. This is then pumped into the house to be used for non-potable applications such as toilet flushing and washing machines. If the tank runs empty, the system automatically switches to mains supply.
RAIN WATER Easy to install, simple to maintain, automatic in operation; the Domestic system has been developed to provide the homeowner with a 'fit-and-forget' system, ensuring an automatic supply of harvested rainwater. Designed to be as user-friendly as possible, the system utilises much of the existing pipework within the building. The main requirement being the installation of a rainwater storage tank with internal pump, selected to meet the roof area's water catchment yield and household requirements.
Our system can reduce water consumption in domestic applications by 50% Authorities increasingly expect applications to demonstrate Sustainable Drainage (SUDS) Achieves credits that are required for compliance with the Code for Sustainable Homes. Also Reduce mains water use fulfils the new Part G 2009 Building Regulations Money saved though reduced water bills means the system can payback its purchase costs. The BS8515 : 2009 Rainwater Harvesting Systems - Code of Practice protects the public by ensuring consistency of quality, installation, testing and maintenance of rainwater harvesting systems for non-potable (non-drinkable) water applications in the UK. Our product ensures total compliance with the BS8515 : 2009
Applications for Self Build Homes and Housing Developments:
The bigger the roof, the bigger the catchment, the bigger the benefits. This is why our rainwater harvesting system is so ideally suited to commercial applications:
