Does your company conduct pro forma performance reviews? Do your non-unionized employees sometimes receive group salary raises in the standard course when their individual performance does not merit a raise?
Performance reviews are important human resources management tools. Unfortunately, performance reviews are also one of the many administrative tasks that do not directly produce any revenue. As a result, it is all too often the case that performance reviews are rushed and superficial – often to the detriment of the employer.
For example, although it may take only 5 minutes to check off "satisfactory" in every job evaluation category, it could take significantly longer to critically reflect on an employee's true performance. We routinely see performance reviews completed by managers who were effectively guessing what comment to make on the review form. Wherever a manager completing a performance review does not have the best information available, it is advisable to go and speak with other supervisors and managers who could provide better information. A thorough performance review takes work, but the work will be appreciated if the employee who is the subject of the review is dismissed at a later time and the performance review becomes evidence in a legal proceeding.
We also see performance reviews where the reviewer has checked off the required boxes, but has not taken the time to provide written comments expanding on the employee's performance. Even worse, we see examples where the written comments do not correlate with the check boxes. For example, the check boxes are all marked "satisfactory" or "good," but the written comments are overwhelmingly negative. A performance review that contradicts itself will not be good evidence for the employer.
The following passage from Lambe v. Irving Oil Ltd., 2002 CanLII 22789 (NL SCTD) makes the point that careless performance reviews and standard course raises can effectively undermine a case for cause dismissal:
[109] As well, the company, by waiting 27 months to act on policy breaches is estopped from relying on these alleged breaches. When Smith told MacDonald to ignore these alleged breaches of policy, Irving cannot now come to court and allege these as grounds for dismissal. I refer to the case of Tracey v. Swansea Construction Co. Ltd., [1965] 1 O.R. 203 and Holloway v. The Town Council of Marystown (1986) 58 Nfld. & P.E.I.R. 214, page 231-232. See also The Law of Dismissal in Canada, supra, Chapter 6 at page 129 where the author quotes as follows:
"Similar to providing the employee with a raise, providing an employee with a positive performance review or a letter of praise will have the general effect of condoning performance."
[110] In this case Mr. Lambe was given a performance review as late as 1996 between February and May, just four months prior to being fired.
This was a case where the employer was not satisfied with the employee's performance, yet proceeded to not pay sufficient attention to their performance review process and was left with a series of positive or satisfactory reviews which contradicted their allegations in support of termination for cause.
Accurate performance reviews are not only useful for alleging cause, but are also very important in defending human rights claims. Performance reviews can become a major issue in human rights cases where an applicant is alleging that he or she was dismissed for a discriminatory reason. Where the applicant can show a prima facie case that the dismissal was discriminatory, the burden shifts to the respondent to prove that it had a non-discriminatory reason (short of cause) to dismiss the person. If the performance reviews are inconsistent or largely positive, it will be that much harder for the respondent to prove its non-discriminatory reason for dismissal.
When completing a performance review, it is important to keep in mind that a positive performance review or a salary increase effectively confirms the employee's good performance for the period in question.

Question: Why do some folks feel plant-based eating doesn't provide enough protein?
Answer: Most people aren't familiar with plant-based diets and the research supporting them. Look no farther than athletes who eat plant-based. Eat properly, and you'll get all the protein you need. We're also misled to believe that meat, milk, etc. are the best "protein" foods. Indeed, many people do not even know that plants contain any protein at all. Don't worry, plants have protein.
Q: Joe/Jane Meat-Eater decides to start eating more plant-based. Where will Joe/Jane likely go wrong?
A: Eating too many refined and processed "vegetarian" foods. The real benefit from "plant-based" comes when the diet is centered on whole unrefined/unprocessed fruits, vegetables, intact whole grains and legumes with the addition of a few nuts/seeds.
Q. Some folks are concerned with controlling carb intake and often get scared away from plant-based eating. What do you tell them?
A: Over 90 percent of carbs consumed in America are highly refined, highly processed, and mostly in the form of refined flour and sugar. This is the problem. Avoid these. However, carbs in the form of fresh fruits, vegetables, starchy vegetables, intact whole grains and legumes are the healthiest foods for us and should be the center of any healthy diet.
Q. Some folks want to gain muscle/strength and fuel high levels of performance. What do you suggest they do to get enough nutrient-dense food each day?
A: Try to eat only when hungry, eat only until satisfied and drink lots of water. To lose fat, eat two meals and three snacks per day. To maintain body composition, eat three meals and two snacks per day. To gain muscle, eat five meals per day. Make yours meals using nutrient-dense foods like veggies, fruits, raw nuts and seeds, legumes and then grains (in that order). Eating like this consistently will lead to amazing results.
Dos and don'ts:
If you're considering moving toward a plant-based diet, or just want some more plant-based choices, here are the experts' tips:
DO choose your protein sources carefully.
DO aim for about 1 gram of protein per kg of bodyweight; add 30-40 grams each day if you are in a phase of intense training.
DO get enough fat.
DO eat a variety of whole foods, especially lots of vegetables and fruits.
DO stay active.
DO use your body's hunger cues to guide you. If you want to lose fat, eat a little less than you would normally. If you want to gain mass, eat a little more.
DON'T get your nutrition information from bodybuilding magazines.
DON'T just cut things out without adding healthy alternatives.
DON'T consume too many processed foods, including "healthy" protein powders and processed soy products.

Health Services
Saint Columbkille Partnership School is dedicated to the care of the whole child-emotionally, spiritually, socially and physically. To that end, we have a school nurse on site who is trained to evaluate and treat students when the need arises.
Health Data Requirements For All Students
Saint Columbkille Partnership School, in accordance with the regulations of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, requires the following health information before a student enters school.
Required Immunizations
Massachusetts Department of Public Health Regulation 105 CMR 220 requires students to be immunized before starting school. An immunization certificate/record that includes the month, day and year the immunizations were administered needs to be submitted to and reviewed by the school nurse before the student begins school. If there are medical reasons why your child has not been immunized, a certificate must be obtained from your physician and forwarded to the school nurse. For religious exemption, please write a note to the school nurse.
Physical Examination
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health Regulation 105.CMR 200 requires a physical examination for all new students. Physical exams are also required in pre-school, kindergarten, grades 4 and 7.
Student Illness or Injury
- Illness Policy1. Fever. Any oral temperature of 100.4° Fahrenheit or axillary temperature of 99.4 or higher constitutes a fever. Your child should be fever free, without medication, for 24 hours before returning to school. Please do not treat a fever with medication and send your child to school. 2. Vomiting and/or diarrhea. Your child should stay home from school for 24 hours from the LAST episode of diarrhea and/or vomiting.
3. Persistent coughing that can be disruptive to class.
4. Unexplained rashes, sores, inflamed eyes or other signs of contagious illnesses.
5. Strep throat: Positive strep throats must be on antibiotics for a full 24 hours before returning to school.
***A note about the 24-hour fever/vomiting/diarrhea policy – As parents ourselves, we understand the difficulty that comes with keeping a child home from school and missing work. We understand that it can be a hassle, but we ask that you help the greater school community by adhering to this policy at all times. If your child had an episode of vomiting or diarrhea during the school day or after-school program and they go home and are much improved we still need you to keep them home for the full 24 hours. We want to prevent absences whenever possible and we ask for your partnership in this by keeping your child home when necessary. Thank you in advance for understanding that its not meant to be punitive, it is meant to keep the greater school community as healthy as possible.
**UPDATED** Head Lice Policy
We will now require a signed note from your child's pediatrician stating that s/he has been properly treated for lice.
Head lice are a nuisance that happens at all schools.
Please take these precautions:
1. Check your child's hair for head lice and their eggs (also called nits).
2. If you suspect your child has head lice, ask your health care provider to recommend an appropriate treatment.
3. Call and notify your school nurse if your child has head lice.
If head lice have been confirmed, do not return your child to school until she or he has been treated with shampoo approved to kill lice, you have removed all nits from your child's hair, and you have cleaned or stored personal items. Remember that you must keep checking your child's hair for new nits for at least 2 weeks. Routine lice checks are not conducted by the nurse's office but they are done on an as needed basis if lice are suspected.
Should students be found with live head lice or nits (eggs) during the school day, they will be dismissed to parents/guardians for treatment. Upon their return, parents/guardians will be asked to present a signed doctor's note stating that the student has been treated with an appropriate pediculicide and is lice and nit free. Additionally, upon return to school, the School Nurse will reassess the child for any lice or nits. If any lice or nits are found, parents/guardians will be called to pick the child up from school for additional treatment. These steps will be repeated as necessary until the child is completely lice and nit free when arriving to school.
As always, confidentiality regarding the affected student(s) will be maintained at all times. When a student is found to have lice, a general lice alert email will be sent to all parents in the class of the affected student so that all parents may take proactive steps to ensure their own child(ren) are lice free and/or administer treatment as above if they are also found to have lice/nits.
One of our parents, Jessica Savilonis, (a hair stylist and certified lice technician) has kindly offered her services in the event that your child has lice – she is trained in the treatment protocol and can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com. Jesscia has also recommended Happy Heads products as an effective treatment line for lice. For more information, go to: http://www.happyheadsproducts.com/
Medication Policy
- All prescription medications, (epi-pens, inhalers, seizure medication, etc) require a written order from a licensed physician. Parental permission is also required for all prescription in the form of a signed Medication Administration Plan (MAP). MAPs are available in the nurse's office. If your child has a prescription medication please ensure this paperwork has been submitted.
- The only exception to this is for short-term medications (less than 10 days). For example, amoxicillin for an ear infection or strep throat.
- All Medication must be delivered by an adult in the original prescription bottle with proper label.
- All medications should be picked up at the end of the school year by an adult.
- Parents and guardians may administer medication to their child at anytime during the school day if necessary.
- The following over the counter medications are available for students as needed in the nurse's office:
- Benadryl, Caladryl clear, Hydrocortisone 1% cream, Ibuprofen (advil, motrin) – children's and regular strength, Tylenol, and Vaseline.
- In order to administer these medications – parents/guardians must sign off on the medication permissions tab in RenWeb.
Treatment of illnesses/injuries
If your child is injured/ill at school:
- First aid will be administered.
- The parent/guardian shall be notified.
- The guardian will be requested to pick the student up at school as necessary.
Students cannot remain in the health office for the entirety of the day.
Please also remember to alert the school nurses if your child is diagnosed with any communicable diseases, such as conjunctivitis, head lice, ringworm, strep throat, etc.
When it is necessary to excuse your child from Physical Education, written documentation is required from your child's health care provider. Written documentation is also required to resume participation in Physical Education.
The school nurse can be reached by telephone and email. Phone 617-254-3110 x 106 or e-mail at email@example.com.

Mayor's adviser will work to defeat 4 ballot measures
Tony Winnicker, one of Mayor Ed Lee's chief advisers, is taking an unpaid leave of absence to work as a political consultant during the November campaign to try to defeat four ballot measures that Lee views as a power grab.
There has long been speculation that Winnicker, 45, was leaving the mayor's office, and it's unclear if he will return after working on the campaign. A strong personality willing to go after critics, he has often been the bulldog counterpoint to Lee's low-key governing style.
"I have incredible respect for city employees, and people don't understand how hard they work, but I've never seen myself as a lifelong public employee," Winnicker said. "I'll consider my next step after the election. There will be a discussion with Mayor Lee about what's best for his administration."
Winnicker will work with veteran political consultant Ace Smith to try to defeat Propositions D, H, L and M — all of which were put on the ballot by the board's progressive supervisors.
Winnicker described them as "dumb, harmful and lots of money" — a play on their assigned ballot letters.
Prop. D would require a special election to fill a vacancy on the Board of Supervisors. Currently, the mayor appoints someone to fill out the term.
Prop. H would create an Office of Public Advocate.
Prop. L would split the power to make appointments to the Municipal Transportation Agency Commission between the Board of Supervisors and the mayor. Now, the mayor has sole appointing authority. It would also make it easier for the supervisors to reject the MTA's budget.
Prop. M would create a housing commission to oversee the Department of Economic and Workforce Development and the Mayor's Office of Housing and Community Development.
Winnicker worked as spokesman for former mayor and current Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom from 2009 to 2011. He was Lee's campaign spokesman during his 2011 mayoral run. After the election, he joined Lee's administration as a senior adviser focused on economic and business issues.

Nintendo has announced that they are collaborating with Cygames to release a mobile action game. Both will work together to create a new RPG game for smart devices to be called Dragalia Lost.
Without much details at the moment, the company has said the game will be available sometime in the summer. First, it will have a launch in Asian countries such as Japan, Taiwan, Macao, among others. Later, North America and Europe will arrive.
The company says:
"Nintendo will launch Dragalia Lost, a totally new and original RPG application and action designed by Cygames for smart mobile devices. Nintendo has co-developed the game and will operate it in conjunction with Cygames, bringing to life the shared vision of a new gaming experience with appeal across the globe."
Cygame is a top Tokyo based mobile developer in Japan and they are mostly known for their Granblue Fantasy, Shadowverse, Cinderella Girls, Rage of Bahamut and Battle Champs.
As for the deal, Nintendo will take 5% of Cygame's stock and at this moment there are no more details about the game, so we will have to wait for upcoming news about this new installment by Nintendo for mobile devices.
It was recently revealed Shuntaro Furukawa Is Replacing Tatsumi Kimishima As The President Of Nintendo. Tastumi will take the role of a corporate advisor for the company and his name will be forever linked to Nintendo Switch as it brought huge success to the company.
This change was made because the company wanted their management to be younger to understand their customers better.
Nintendo is always innovating and they recently told in an interview how their hiring system is different than other companies. They encourage creativity and time their employees put into products rather than just looking at the final outcome.
What are your thoughts on Nintendo working with Cygames? Will you play it? Let us know in the comments below.

Jordan CP3.IX (9) Performance Review
Zoom is back…or is it?
Cushion – I won't say that I hate the cushion…but I'm not a fan of it. This is just another shoe that utilizes Zoom Air and you can't feel it. At least I couldn't feel it. I loved the setup in the CP3.VIII, and CP3.VII — which both used Zoom Air in some way — but these just fell flat of expectations. I thought that having the Zoom protrude out of the shoe would give you an Air Jordan XX8/ XX9 feeling, but all it did was feel like I had something stuck under my foot the entire time. It had no responsiveness of any kind.
The cushion isn't bad enough to give it a Benched badge thanks to the foam not being rock hard, but it definitely wasn't anything to be impressed about. Transition was nice though, I'll give it that. Smooth and fluid motion so that's a plus. But if you're thinking that you're going to experience something amazing with the cushion, think again.
Materials – When I reviewed the CP3.VIII I wasn't happy with the materials at all. They were durable, but just not something I personally enjoyed, and definitely nowhere near as nice as what was used on the CP3.VII. Then the CP3.VIII AE dropped and I loved the materials used on those. Same thing applies here with the CP3.IX's. Materials are just awesome. I don't know how they can get a foam-backed mesh setup to be so supportive, but they've done it and done it well. The upper flexes with the foot and requires little break-in time while remaining supportive enough for movements. If you cant go woven…this is the next best thing.
Fit – They fit true to size and the overall lockdown, from heel to forefoot, is excellent. The lace loops are like seat belts. Your laces would usually do most of the heavy lifting as far as keeping you locked into the shoe, but with the CP3.IX you have belts that really harness you onto the footbed. The more you tighten the laces, either by hand or by making a cut or move on-court, the tighter the belts fasten up. Its a really cool feature, but one that comes with it's fair share of issues.
I ran into an issue with the bungee lacing system – that aren't bungees at all – which caused a lot of discomfort. This might be my foot alone, although wide footers and those with high arches may also run into the issue as well. Basically, there was way too much pressure on top of the foot and it would cut off circulation and pinch some of my nerves. I was hoping it'd get better with every wear, but instead it just got more apparent that these just don't work with my foot. There is more detail about the lacing system that I will cover in the video version of the review because it's something that's easier to show than describe.
In a nutshell, they provide ample lockdown, but there might be discomfort for some. They will receive a Starting 5 badge due to the fact that fit, lockdown and containment are all excellent. Again, the issue with the bungee lacing may affect some but not others. So we'll leave it as a note or something for you to keep in mind before purchasing.
However, I would highly recommend trying this shoe on before committing to buy. Unless you don't mind returning online orders if the fit isn't too desirable once you've gotten them in.
Support – There are the typical support features on the CP3.IX. Torsional shank bar – it can be seen underneath the shoe – that I originally thought was a FlightSpeed Plate, along with the seat belt bungee lacing. All of which do one hell of a job keeping you secure and in the shoe. There isn't a giant outrigger or anything, but the midsole does extend past the foot a bit – while remaining low to the ground – so you likely won't experience any issues. Unless you land on someone's foot. But you'd be pretty screwed in nearly any shoe if that were to happen. Trust me, I've landed on someone's foot in almost every shoe I've ever played in and every time I end up with the same result…pretty damn screwed.
Overall – Guards will likely enjoy the shoe, but if you were expecting FlightSpeed type of cushion then you'll be pretty disappointed. Traction and materials are two of my personal favorite attributes on the CP3.IX, and I would have included their incredible fit/ lockdown in there had those non-bungee bungees stretched a little. No idea why they didn't just use actual bungees like they did with the AJ10 — that would've made much more sense than nylon ribbons. Overall, solid performer with a few flaws. Hopefully they fix these issues for the AE edition, otherwise the CP3 will likely stay out of my rotation completely.

Ever wondered why people cry?, Cry has many definitions, and there all don't define it satisfactorily. A cry may be defined as a call out for help, a public declaration of an emotion, etc.
When we look at children, for example, newborn babies, we can say a cry is a means of communicating their feelings, it's a way of telling their parents that they need help, it is a way of calling for attention when they desire it. It is the only way they can communicate.
Recent psychological theories of crying emphasize the relationship of crying to the experience of perceived helplessness. From this perspective, an underlying experience of
helplessness can usually explain why people cry. For example, a person may cry after receiving surprisingly happy news, ostensibly because the person feels powerless or unable to influence what is happening.
A cry can, therefore, be seen as a means of communicating those deep feelings that words cannot even dare to describe. It is a way of letting out our pain, stress, anguish, and frustration.
Although crying has been dimed to depict weakness, and there is a regular saying that; "real men don't cry" I wonder where that came from .I am guessing it must have been from the ancient Spartan communities. But let's face reality every man has cried at least twice or more in their adulthood, either at the loss of a dear one or at the face of multiple complications, that moment when life plays its tricks on your toils and hard work.
Sometimes when men cry they don't know why, and yet they can't stop themselves from crying. Some people cry not only when they are in pains or traumatized, but they also cry when they are super excited, they cry at the occasion of a pleasant surprise.
Therefore cry is not only a show of emotional astma or trauma, but it is also a show of joy and excitement which adds to why it is so complicated to actually know why we cry when to cry and when not to cry.
I think cry is a language, it is the first ever language that children get to speak and surprisingly their patents understand. They cry when they are hungry, when there
is poop in their diapers, when they are uneasy(feeling hot especially), when they don't want to eat, they cry, until they are old enough to speak whatever language they are born into, cry is what they speak and their parents must understand them during this period.
Not only humans but animals too also cry, when they are in pains or when they get emotional (e.g. Dogs).
Though the mystery behind crying is yet to be told, it should be seen as a language, a means of communicating something deeper than words can explain. It should not be seen as a show of weakness for those who cry or a show of strength for those who don't.
Cry is even good for the sight because tears shed helps to wash the eyes and rid them of dirt. Try it sometimes

EIB lent €1.9 bn last year, mostly for innovation; €44.5bn over 42 years
EIB has been working with Portugal since 1976, and since then it has lent over €44.5bn. Last year, for investments in the field of innovation, the European Investment bank lent €1.9bn to our country.
The European Investment Bank (EIB) has lent some €44.5 billion for 457 projects in Portugal over the last 42 years, with €1.9 billion being lent just last year, the institution announced on Tuesday.
According to data unveiled by the EIB at a news conference in Brussels, most of the latter amount – €904.2 million – was earmarked for initiatives in the field of innovation, followed by infrastructure (€502.5 million) and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs – €499 million). Environmental projects were also financed to the tune of €73.2 million.
The EIB has, it stressed in a statement, been working with Portugal since 1976.
"We have been enabling the modernisation of the country's infrastructures [and] improved the access of SMEs to the financing of selected local banks," it said. Among industrial companies it had helped, it cited Navigator, Portugal's largest maker of fine paper, which it had provided with finance to boost output and energy efficiency at its Figueira da Foz pulp mill."
In 2018, the year the EIB turned 60, the institution lent more than €64 billion for investments totalling €230 billion in Europe and around the world. Among areas with the most projects are digitalisation, SMEs, education and skills, sustainable energy and the modernisation of infrastructure, which EIB chairman Werner Hoyer said were crucial for the European economy to keep up with world competition.

The one and only sporting title I walked away from our weekend away in Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth was the winner of the Crazy Air Squash match at the Pleasure Beach in Great Yarmouth - winning 7-5 against Emily.
This was alot better than my last tournament outing at the Peterborough Boom-A-Rang Air Squash Championships where I lost against Rebecca 'The Fen Tigress' Evison in the Grand Final and my dismal performance in the Undisputed International Worlds Crazy Air Squash Championships in September 2010 when I crashed out of the tournament on the wrong end of a 9-nil defeat at the hands of the debuting German Crazy Air Squash Wunderkind Gerhard Zimmermann.
In total we found three Crazy Squash Tables in various amusement arcades in Great Yarmouth - perhaps this is where all the tables that used to be in Hastings were shipped to?

Indeed. Perhaps the Intercontinental Title could be contested in Peterborough too? The table there is in a Laser Tag Arena so should guarantee a good turnout of aficionados too.

Remove Pro-news.net (Removal Instructions) - Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge
Pro-news.net is a suspicious website that serves a variety of ads and redirects to potentially dangerous sites
Pro-news.net is a push notification virus that also redirects users to questionable websites and displays pop-ups, banners, promotional offers, deals, in-text links, flashing windows and similar commercial content on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera or other browsers.
If you noticed that Pro-news.net redirects and pop-ups do not leave your browser, it is highly likely that your device is infected with adware.[1] These potentially unwanted programs typically alter web browser settings to expose users to various ads and track their web browser activities for targeted advertising[2] purposes.
You can remove Pro-news.net pop-ups and redirects by terminating adware that is installed on your system. Additionally, you can also stop notifications by changing settings of your browser or resetting it all together. For more detailed instructions, please check the bottom section of the article.
|Adware/Potentially unwanted program
|Software bundling, third-party sites, ads
|Redirects to
|Risk factors
|Malware infections, sensitive data leakage to unknown parties, money loss
|Terminate adware with security software or by using manual guide below
|To restore your system to previous state and improve its operation, scan it with Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego
Potentially unwanted programs like Pro-news.net usually get installed together with freeware or shareware that you download from the internet (generally from third-party sites). Alternatively, some applications might have an adware component included within its functionality, and you might not even know about it. Thus, it is always worth reading reviews online before installing any type of program you are not familiar with.
While the advertisement is a genuine income option for multiple website and software developers, the matter becomes much more serious when ad-supported apps may compromise its users' safety. Therefore, while considered nowhere near as dangerous as trojan, ransomware or an info-stealer, Pro-news.net and similar adware might lead to the installation of that said malware, especially if not handled carefully.
Pro-news.net might lead users to tech support scam, phishing, or even malware-laden websites. Therefore, it is vital not to click on anything and swiftly close down the browser. Only after Pro-news.net removal, you should resume web browsing activities.
Pro-news.net is a potentially unwanted program that initiates pop-up ads and redirects to suspicious websites
In addition to all this, Pro-news.net virus might track the following data:
- IP address;
- Search queries;
- Sites visited;
- Links clicked;
- Cookies;
- Bookmarks added;
- Technical details, etc.
Be aware that the IP address is considered personal information, along with search queries that you enter into the search engine. Thus, your private details, such as name, email, address, etc. might get leaked and exposed to unknown parties.
After you eliminate adware, security experts[3] strongly recommend scanning the device with Reimage Reimage Cleaner Intego for a quick recovery.
Bundled software may lead to adware and other PUP infections
If you are wondering how a potentially unwanted program got into your device, and why you have not noticed the point of entry, the answer is simple – it is because you installed an application without paying close attention to its installation instructions. While software bundling technique is far from fair, it is also users' responsibility to make sure not PUPs slip in during the installation.
To avoid future infections, do not rush the installation process and read through the instructions carefully. Be aware that freeware authors often use tricks to hide potentially unwanted programs, such as pre-ticked boxes, misleading or grayed out buttons, carefully hidden offers, etc.
Thus, always pick Advanced/Custom settings and terminate all the optional components from the install list, such as system optimizers, driver updaters, PDF converters, toolbars, etc.
Stop Pro-news.net redirects and popups with the help of these instructions
If you are continually suffering from redirects and ads, you should remove Pro-news.net virus from your computer to stop the invasive activity. You can do that either manually or automatically – both methods work, but the former might be less effective in some cases. If you go with the latter, download a reputable security tool and perform a full system scam.
In case redirects and pop-ups do not cease even after Pro-news.net removal, you need to stop notifications from being shown from unwanted sources. To do that, please follow these instructions:
Google Chrome
- Go to Menu and select Settings
- Pick Advanced and then go to Privacy and security > Content Settings > Notifications
- Now find Pro-news.net (or any other that you do not recognize) entry under Allow

The famous Neapolitan comedy "It's not true but I believe it" of the great Peppino De Filippo wants to be the emblem of this path that will guide you in the fascinating world of Neapolitan superstition, a world created by popular culture and not by ignorance, as many would believe.

And yet, this is the beauty!
We invite you to discover the esoteric and mysterious culture of Naples, strolling through the places of the historic center and making some obligatory stops to enter in this fascinating world.
Among the crowded streets of the cribs there is a magical and silent place: the enchanting Church of San Gregorio Armeno, where once a year Santa Patrizia performs the miracle of the liquefaction of his blood, as well as the most famous San Gennaro of which we will visit the Cathedral and the Treasury, because, as is well known, in Naples, the sacred and the profane are mixed.
San Gennaro is the richest saint in the world thanks to the donations of princes, popes and common people who over the centuries have created a treasure of goldsmithery and priceless jewels.

It is advisable to realise that home design is a fragile matter. It will take one an excellent sense of art to execute this kind of project and create an interior that is certainly stunning and check out well-balanced in every one aspects. However, you can actually reckon that designing a good home interior takes a fortune because it may seem you should buy this and that to enable everything to work. What we have no idea of yet is that sprucing up and breathing new life into the home takes just a few simple things. And the maximum thing about it's that it doesn't suck the life from the bank account.

This simple Small Craftsman House Plans With Carports In Back trick might even make your property look much more spacious than it is actually when done correctly. Have old paint cans already there with your garage? Lovely take them out and put them into good use. Repaint your walls with everything else you get left inside those cans. Once they don't have enough juice inside them to pay all the walls, you may make a highlight wall or turn towards ceiling instead.
Really need to Small Craftsman House Plans With Carports In Back idea is to implement old fabric swatches. Generate a pattern of patchwork or turn them into an intriguing paintings by putting them together inside a frame. If you have the time, rework the linens. Imbue some pizzaz into them by the addition of rickrack, ribbons, or pompoms with their borders. This is a simple act nevertheless it can also work to grant everything a whimsical sense that as well looks elegant and sophisticated.
Your wares should be marveled upon and it is a fact which can be worked into the house design plan. Whip your collections out and put them on tables, in bookcases, or on counters. This means you are able to avoid yourself from cluttering everything around the house and your guests would certainly get impressed by the vastness of one's collections. Mirrors, mind you, work wonder in this regard. Adding an oversized mirror to your room will give feeling of expansiveness without you trying. No end up being hanged on the wall, though. Just lean it from the wall or allow it sit on a mantel and it can already act as intended.
Photographs, old or new, may be used into good use and designed a part of your home design plan as well—especially if you have a lot of them sitting under the bed collecting dust. Hang those photographs anywhere you need them to become seen. When you have a mudroom in the home, you'll be able to turn that part of the house in to a small gallery to hang those photographs and guests could marvel inside the adventures you been in the past.

This past weekend and the past few days have gone by in a flash. Along with my normal job, I've been helping my friend Jenny (she's the stage manager) with a production at the Springs Ensemble Theater and tomorrow is opening night. That means we've been in the final push to make sure the sound works, the light works, the actors have their lines nailed, and all the many other pieces of the production puzzle fit together.
The particular play we're doing is called Art and it was written by French playwright Yasmina Reza. It's all about three friends who have a falling out over a piece of modern art.
My role is behind the scenes – somewhere between stage hand and assistant stage manager. I helped put up the lights, and then I helped rearrange the lights, and I've been doing general stage hand stuff. My main claim to fame, though, is that I'll be running the sound for some of the shows.
Jenny, among other things, will be working the light board, which looks cooler.
This is my first time doing anything theater related since I was an assistant director for a high school production involving cheerleaders and zombies. It's been an interesting ride. I've met some cool people and learned interesting things about putting everything together. One thing that especially caught my eye was the ghost light. Jenny has the official trailer over on her blog.

Treatment of Staphylococcus aureus: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most dangerous varieties of Staphylococcus, it provokes the development of serious diseases. Pathology is diagnosed in adults and infants. In therapy, a comprehensive approach is used that aims to destroy pathogens, prevent the development of severe complications.
Staphylococcus aureus – what is it?
Staphylococcus aureus (Staphylococcus aureus) – gram-positive view bacterial kind of staphylococci, which provokes the appearance of purulent-inflammatory pathologies. Pathogenic microorganisms have a spherical shape, their associations in appearance are similar to a bunch of grapes.
Conditionally pathogenic bacteria staphylococcus aureus are present in every person, live on the mucous membranes of the nose, in the armpits, in the inguinal zone, in the vagina. Pathogenic the form of microorganisms penetrates the body from the outside.
The causes of staphylococcal infection:
- weakened immunity;
- contact with the carrier of infection;
- neglect of personal hygiene rules;
- the consumption of dirty products, raw water, poorly roasted meat, unboiled milk.
The main difference between Staphylococcus aureus and other species is its resistance to many antibacterial drugs, which greatly complicates the treatment.
Ways of infection
Infect staphylococcus aureus can be in different ways, bacteria these are distinguished by their viability, they are resistant to external factors, they do not die by boiling, alcohol, and disinfectant solutions are not terrible for them.
How can I get Staphylococcus aureus:
- Air-droplet path: pathogenic germs are present in saliva, other secretions. With close contact with an infected person, a healthy person inhales the contaminated air, the pathogens penetrate into the upper respiratory tract.
- Contact-household: you can not use utensils and personal belongings of an infected person.
- Alimentary: pathogenic microorganisms penetrate the body with food.
- Artificial: infection occurs in medical institutions. When using poorly sterilized instruments, bacteria immediately enter the bloodstream. This way of infection is considered the most dangerous.
There are certain risk factors that increase the likelihood of infection – metabolic disorders, immunodeficient conditions, advanced age, long-term use of hormonal drugs.
Symptoms of Staphylococcus aureus
Symptoms of infection depend on the location of the bacteria, human immunity. Basic symptoms pathologies – a sharp increase in temperature, a strong intoxication.
Often golden staphylococcus is present in the feces of the baby – the child suffers from severe pain in the abdomen, becomes moody, his appetite worsens, he is underweight in weight.
Lesion of staphylococcus skin
Microbes often affect the umbilical wound in the baby – the umbilical ring swells, there are purulent discharge, extensive hyperemia, there is a thickening of the umbilical vein.
What dermatological pathologies cause staphylococcal infection:
- defeat sweat glands – on the skin appear dense nodules of red color, which gradually begin to fester;
- vesiculopustulosis – characterized by a large number of small bubbles that are filled with liquid, they burst, cover with a crust;
- Ritter's disease – bubbles are formed, resembling a burn-in appearance, a skin will cover, there are extensive open wounds;
- abscess – the infection penetrates into the deep layers of the epidermis, the skin turns red, seals appear, ulcers;
- felon – the infection affects the extreme phalanges of the fingers, the cushion blushes and becomes inflamed, there is a strong pain.
Lesion of eyes and respiratory system
Staphylococcus aureus lives on the mucous membranes, in the presence of provoking factors, it begins to grow actively – ophthalmic diseases develop, the respiratory system suffers.
The main signs of pathologies:
- with damage to the eyes develops chronic conjunctivitis, a person complains of intolerance to bright light, eyelids swell, pus appears from the eyes;
- if the growth of bacteria is observed in the nose, there are signs of a strong cold, mucous discharges become abundant, pus contaminants appear in them;
- when the infection enters the throat, bacterial angina develops, tracheitis with a strong non-productive cough, are increasing The lymph nodes, pus appears on the tonsils;
- If infection from the throat falls lower, develops bronchitis, pneumonia. Diseases occur against a background of severe fever, dyspnea appears, pain under the ribs.
Other types of staphylococcal infection
Staphylococcus aureus is capable of affecting all internal organs, which distinguishes it from other bacteria.
What diseases develop with Staphylococcus aureus:
- With the penetration of pathogenic bacteria into tissues brain develops meningitis and abscess. The disease is accompanied by a strong intoxication, high fever, frequent bouts a headache, coordination is disrupted. Pathology is especially dangerous for pregnant women, it is difficult for children.
- The defeat of the urinary tract – in men develops urethritis, among women – cystitis. The main signs are painful urination, frequent urges to emptying bladder, there are pains in the region of the waist, in the urine, there are blood veins.
- Arthritis, osteomyelitis- the consequences of the penetration of bacteria into the bone and joint tissues. The disease is accompanied by pain,edema, and reddening of the affected area, decreased mobility.
- Sepsis develops with immunodeficiency states – the temperature rises to 40 degrees, the consciousness is disturbed, the arterial indices decrease sharply, a person can fall into a coma.
After eating staphylococcal-infected foods, there are signs of acute enterocolitis – nausea, frequent seizuresvomit, diarrhea, in the feces there are green inclusions.
Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of infertility in men and problems with conception in women.
To confirm the diagnosis, a number of laboratory tests are performed. For research take blood, smears from the pharynx, nose, of the vagina, from the mucous membranes of the eyes.
Basic diagnostic methods:
- standard coagulase test – its duration is 4-24 hours;
- latex agglutination – allows to identify antibodies to Staphylococcus, to determine the strain and the type of pathogenic bacteria;
- clinical blood test – reveals neutrophilia, leukocytosis, high ESR;
- clinical analysis of urine;
- sowing on nutrient media – allows to identify the strain, determine its sensitivity to antibacterial agents;
- Vidal's reaction – the analysis is carried out to determine the effectiveness of therapy, monitor the dynamics of the disease, make it every 7-10 days, a titer of 1: 100 and higher indicates an active growth of bacteria;
- Fagotyping – the analysis is carried out to identify the sensitivity of Staphylococcus to antibacterial agents;
- sowing feces to identify pathogenic microorganisms – do it no later than three hours after a bowel movement.
Sowing with mucous take in the morning on an empty stomach, before brushing teeth and taking medication. Smear with conjunctivitis is taken from the lower eyelid, with dermatological pathologies, the skin around the abscess is treated with antiseptics, the crusts are removed, and then a smear is taken.
To what doctor to address?
The choice of a specialist with the appearance of a staphylococcal infection depends on which organs were affected, how the disease manifests itself. Staphylococcus is treated by a surgeon, dermatologist, ENT, the ophthalmologist. To begin with, you should visit a therapist, pediatrician and infectious disease specialist.
Additionally, an endocrinologist may be required to consult with a suspected development of diabetes mellitus and immunologist, if the cause of the infection lies in immunodeficiency.
How Staphylococcus aureus treats
The basis of therapy is made up of antibiotics, they are prescribed after receiving the results of tests, as the aureus staphylococcus has developed immunity to many drugs. Duration of treatment – from a week to several months, depending on the severity of the pathology.
The main groups of medicines:
- synthetic penicillins – Cefazolin, Oxacillin;
- macrolides – Erythromycin, Clarithromycin;
- antibacterial sprays for the treatment of the throat, nasal mucosa – Miramistin, Bioparox;
- immunomodulators – Imudon, IRS-19;
- when skin is affected – Mupirocin;
- antifungal preparations – Nystatin, Diflucan to prevent dysbacteriosis.
For a gargle of a throat it is possible to use tincture of a calendula, Chlorophyllipt- 20 drops of the drug diluted in 120 ml of water, the procedure is carried out 3 times a day for a week. With conjunctivitis, it is necessary to wash the eyes with a weak solution of potassium permanganate, bury 4-5 times a day with 30%Albucid.
When the organs of the digestive system are damaged, antibacterial drugs are not prescribed, they are used Anatoxinstaphylococcal. Pre-rinse the stomach, do droppers with saline, glucose, and Regidron.
With phlegmon, abscesses, abscesses are surgically opened, after which antibiotic therapy is performed. When sepsis, severe forms of the disease in addition to the main drugs are prescribed Bacteriophagestaphylococcal, plasma, and immunoglobulins.
Treatment of Staphylococcus aureus is most often performed in a hospital – the patient is placed in a separate room, which reduces the chance of bacterial proliferation of other patients. Visits are possible, only visitors should carefully observe the hygiene rules.
Possible complications
Children, people of advanced age, those with weakened immunity suffer a severe staphylococcal infection, they often develop serious complications.
Consequences of Staphylococcus aureus:
- blood poisoning;
- meningitis;
- endocarditis – defeat of the mitral or aortic valve;
- toxic shock;
- coma;
- death.
The prognosis of the disease depends on the degree of severity of the pathology – with mild lesions of the skin and mucous membranes, complications develop rarely. Massive infection, against which sepsis develops, tissue damage brain for each second patient ends with death.
Staphylococcus aureus begins to multiply actively in a weakened organism, so immunity should be strengthened, all infectious diseases should be treated in a timely manner, and hygiene rules should be kept in mind. When signs of the disease do not engage in self-treatment and seek help from a specialist.

This is a sponsored post, but all opinions are my own.
Every time I get on the internet now I feel like I see my friends constantly looking for the most affordable insurance options. A while ago I decided it was time to review my home and car insurance. Not my favorite task, but it's become a lot easier since I started using Clearsurance.
Clearsurance is a website that collects reviews from people about their insurance company and uses the data it gathers to create unbiased rankings of insurance companies, both by state and nationally for 2018. The detailed breakdown helps you compare companies and find coverage that's actually the best deal for your location and history.
Being able to get honest feedback about different companies on Clearsurance has totally boosted my confidence. Instead of fumbling through trying to pick a carrier, I can make an informed decision about what's best for me, based on a bunch of factors about my life!
Take NJM, for example. For over 100 years the New Jersey Manufacturers Company has aided the residents of New Jersey and eventually expanded to Pennsylvania. What you don't know is at the end of year NJM returns to the policyholders! Policyholders were paid $116 in 2016.
From their reviews, consumers appreciate the customer service provided, no matter the situation. One user wrote, "NJM has been excellent and are very easy to work with on any and all issues. They have been very helpful in any call I have made to them to inquire about information or more detail."
If you've used NJM, I want to hear more about your experience! You can leave a review on this page. I'll just be over here stalking the comments.
NJM offers car, homeowners and renters insurance in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, but if you're not located in one of those areas, fear not! I took a few seconds to look around and find some of the most innovative, affordable, and highly rated insurance companies of 2018.
What other insurance companies are changing the game?
If you're looking for a company with a cause, Lemonade, is an incredible option. They offer homeowner's and renter's insurance powered by smart AI, and are highly rated on Clearsurance. People who have used Lemonade rated them 4.67/5. For contrast, Geico only has a rating of 4.23. And while I love getting the hard numbers, I always come back to those genuine personal reviews, which Clearsurance has too! One customer shared their experience with the company, writing "I rented an apt in NYC and I was looking for a renter's insurance. I tried Geico, but the experience was not optimal and didn't proceed. Then I came across Lemonade…I understood immediately what they cover. A few clicks later I had renters insurance. The onboarding experience was great. They also have an app that guides you through the whole process. Renters insurance should be simple. 5 stars."
Reviewing the Lemonade page on Cleasurance, I can absolutely see what this user was talking about. The company is transparent, with the goal of creating social good. They take a flat 20 percent fee out of your insurance premiums and use the rest of it to pay claims. Lemonade takes the extra money after it pays claims and donates it to nonprofit charities that its policyholders choose. That's exactly the kind of passion I love about these bold new companies. They know we care, and they wield cool new technology to help us spend our money more efficiently while still giving back.
Then there's Root, with a nearly perfect user rating on Clearsurance. They use a pre-insurance tracking phase to decide whether to insure you and because they learn so much about their customers, they can offer much better deals than a run-of-mill insurance company.
A couple of other standouts for me: Metromile and Clearcover. These are both car insurance companies. Metromile is rated highly on Clearsurance and offers the unique option of pay per mile insurance. I'd definitely consider this company if I put fewer miles on my car! Clearcover also offers an unconventional approach to insurance. They're a startup on a mission to trim the unnecessary costs of auto insurance. They're currently only offering car insurance in California, but they're a company I'll be keeping an eye on.
Clearsurance has been such a great resource for me as I navigate insuring all of the important things I own. When I'm not checking the ratings page or lurking through the customer reviews, I'm over on their blog, finding helpful tips for navigating the insurance industry – most of the time, they're things I never would have thought to ask! If you've used an insurance company, I really recommend leaving a review for them on Cleasurance.

Turkey to consult NATO over downing of jet by Syria
ISTANBUL - Turkey's foreign minister said Sunday that his country would hold emergency talks with NATO in the next few days over the downing of one of its jet fighters by Syria, claiming the plane was attacked in international airspace.
"Next week, Permanent Council of NATO will be informed," Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said in a Twitter message posted from his official account Sunday.
In another posting Sunday, he said that Turkey, a NATO member, would invoke Article 4 of the NATO treaty, which provides for consultations by the allies when one is attacked or threatened.
Davutoglu posted the messages after he told state-owned TRT TV that the Turkish authorities' analysis of radar, visual and communications data had confirmed that their aircraft was struck by Syrian antiaircraft weapons outside of Syrian airspace.
"Our plane was hit in international airspace, 13 nautical miles out of Syria, when Syrian territorial space is 12 miles," he said.
He said that the Turkish investigation had left no doubt that the aircraft, a two-seat F-4 Phantom, had briefly strayed over Syria but had been shot down after leaving its territory.
The television network reported that the aircraft's wreckage and its ejection seats had been found Sunday off the Syrian coast.
The search continued for the crewmen, the report said.
In Brussels, the NATO spokeswoman, Oanu Lungescu, told Turkey's Anatolia News Agency that the allies would meet Tuesday to discuss the downing of its jet.
Syria has said it shot down the plane because it was flying low into its airspace and appeared to have hostile intentions.
"It was an accident, certainly not an attack," the Syrian foreign minister, Jihad Makdissi, told the Turkish news channel A Haber on Saturday.
Davutoglu said the Turkish jet was on a training exercise. He said the aircraft was flying alone, without weapons, and that Syrian authorities made no attempt to contact it.

TR Percy
TR Percy Knockout 13th May 2019
Whitley Bay Ladies were looking forward to their first T R Percy match at home to Stocksfield.
The teams were very closely matched with only one or two shots being given to the opposition.
The matches were played in glorious sunshine and the players reported that the course was in splendid condition.
In a close fought competition the teams were informed that they had to play until a result was achieved, at that stage the points were even, with two points each, unfortunately this meant that 3 matches had to continue playing up the 19th hole until a result was achieved. It was all very tense, the points could have gone either way and everyone was starting to get hungry.
The final result of 5 points to Stocksfield, 2 points to Whitley Bay, did not show the closeness of the matches. Everyone had an enjoyable afternoon, good golf, good food and a catch up with old friends.
Well played Whitley Bay T R Percy Team.
Rosie shoots 23 under to win the Fairhaven Trophy
At the weekend of 4th and 5th May 2019, Rosie played in the Fairhaven Trophy at Fairhaven Golf club in Lytham St Anne's. It's an international girls & boys U18 competition over 72 holes. They have a girls & boys competition plus a nations cup ( teams of 2/3 entered by their national federations) & an overall winner measured against the boys scratch (it's 72 for men's card & 75 for ladies)
Rosie has scores of 70( -5) 68 (-7) 69 (-6) 70 (-5) for a wire to wire victory, -23 against ladies standard scratch & 20 shots better than the 2nd placed girl.
She also beat all of the boys to finish top of both leader boards & lead her England team to victory in the nations cup. There were 20 international teams entered in the nations cup.
In the boys field were most of the England boys u18 squad, teams from the German, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian, Scottish, Irish & Welsh National u18 squads, along with girls from the English, Welsh & Swedish National squads. Rosie's score beats the best ever boys score by 4 & the best ever girls score by 11 & once all of handicap reductions are through her handicap will be down to +3
It's her first national competition win & hopefully she can keep her form going over the summer. In 2 weeks time it's the English Women's Amateur Championship at Saunton Golf Club, Devon & then the following week she is off to the German Girls Championship at St Leon Rott golf club.
Rosie Belsham – The Junior Open Update
The Junior Open was a fantastic experience, the players were all made to feel like pro's. From the opening ceremony on the 18th green of the old course, where they received medals from Jordan Speith to the goodie bags supplied by Rolex, which included a pair of golf shoes (but unfortunately not a watch), everything was organised like a professional tournament. As each player was the only representative from their country, they felt extra special. Every time Rosie was introduced it was From England & Whitley Bay golf club, so it also reflected well on the club. As the Vice-Captain of the R&A is from Newcastle he personally introduced her to many of the officials from other golf associations, including the USGA president as Rosie, from England & Whitley Bay Golf Club.
The course was really tough, the girls were off the white tees, same as the boys, on all but 4 holes so they added 600+yards to the length of the red course but reduced par from 73 to 70. Rosie shot 74,77,72 to finish 37th overall & 11th girl. She had the worst of the wind on days 2 & 3 so a bit unlucky, but overall was happy with how she played.
On Monday Rosie travels to Oslo in Norway with the England U16 team to play in the European Young Masters. This is the European U16 championship. It's a nations cup & individual event with a boys & girls title plus a team championship. There are only 2 girls & 2 boys selected to represent England, so another great honour for Rosie & for Whitley Bay Golf Club, with 27 European countries competing. The tournament runs from Thursday 26th – Saturday 28th at Hauger Golf Club near Oslo & is run by the European Golf Association.
Rosie would like to say a huge thank you to all club members for their support and good wishes.

Wow. Who knew those Swiss were so hardcore about their cheese? I looked up our local Swiss Club for date night this week, in the hopes of trying some authentic fondue… I've never had it before, and neither has Den.
Let me start by getting one thing very clear: I love my cheese. I would eat cheese all day, every day if I possibly could. Soft, hard, aged, blue, stinky… however I can get it, I'm in. So you can imagine I was expecting something pretty spectacular when it came to fondue night.
And Den? Well, as it turns out Den was expecting something even more than spectacular when it came to fondue night. I didn't twig at first, but on the way to the restaurant he asked 'So there's just the fondue in the middle of the room and you go up and dunk stuff into it?' I told him that no, we would get our own fondue on the table. He looked impressed, and slightly confused. I let it go.
So we get to the restaurant and order the fondue (this date night went WAY over the $30 mark by the way, but you can definitely replicate at home for under the budget, or your own local Swiss restaurant (?) may have reasonable fondue prices). We're told it's two kinds of cheese and a LOT of schnapps, served only with bread (don't they usually chop up veggies and meats and stuff with it? Or is that the Western world's take on it?).
As the waitress brings the enormous, molten bowl of fondue over and sets it on the open flame, Den's face falls. She walks away and he leans over 'We got jibbed, huh?'
'What do you mean?'
'Well, where's the three-tiered fountain?'
The poor guy! What a let-down! He was thinking of the chocolate fondue fountains you see so often at cocktail parties and thought that was the traditional Swiss way of preparing all fondues! And then I clicked! He thought that the Swiss Club would be sporting a HUGE cheese fountain of fondue in the middle of the room that you could walk up to and stick skewered food into!! Too cute.
As if the presentation wasn't tainted enough for him, it soon became apparent that a meal of just bread and melted cheese laden with a litre of schnapps wasn't really our cup of tea. I kid you not, I could've gotten woozy off the fumes alone! I think it would've been great if it wasn't so potent!
After a few hunks of bread dipped in booze, we started to feel a bit heady – cheap drunks that we are!
It was hard to eat too much of… but we didn't want to offend the Swiss and risk un-neutralising them! We battled on, and turned it into a drinking game! (Pure genius of me!). We played the ABC's of Sex (courtesy of my iPhone DrinkingLite app) – the game goes like this: you start with the letter A and each person in the group (well, the two of us) says something sexual that starts with that letter. When someone can't think of another sexy 'A' word, they "shoot" (or in our case, dunk a hunk of bread in the fondue and eat it), then you move on to 'B'. We giggled like schoolgirls and blushed as we whispered dirty words to each other across the table… I did get rather enthusiastic at one point and shouted out 'GANGBANG' at the last second before forefeiting the G-round, so my apologies to the lovely, older Swiss gentleman that was minding his own business at the table next to us! By the time we got to H, we had lost the will to live and promptly abandoned the fondue.
All in all, a bit of a disaster of a meal but a funny date night nonetheless, which just goes to show that you make your own fun, assuming you're both in a good mood with each other!
If you are going out for your fondue date night, I have to recommend the chocolate version. A hell of a lot more sexy…. Here is a great recipe, serve it up with cut fruit, marshmallows and sweet pastry, and make a rule that whoever drops a piece of food into the fondue has to remove an article of clothing, 70s style!
Writer, dating columnist, wife, coffee addict, foodie, fashionista... Melburnian through and through. Muser, dancer, blogger, tweeter. Likes to get her head on telly now and again. Sleeper, dreamer, a sucker for romance. And of course... a cheap date.

text: To this day, its up to debate which Gremlins movie is the superior; but I like them both just the same! The Gremlins are back, and this time, they've taken control of a New York media mogul's high-tech skyscraper. Due to the dark comedy of the first film, they wanted the sequel to be less dark and more cartoony, all of which I welcomed with open arms. I mean this movie's got everything: Rambo Gizmo, Mohawk (Spider Gremlin), Brain Gremlin (LOL!), Bat Gremlin, Female Gremlin, Electric Gremlin, Daffy Gremlin and of course Hulk Hogan. The movie even manages to poke fun of the first movie at lot with fourth wall jokes and meta-humor. A high recommendation for the fans!

A fire at the former home of Gov. Mark Dayton near Lake Harriet in Minneapolis was deliberately set, police said Saturday.
Firefighters were called about 2 a.m. Saturday to a small blaze at the back of the house in the 4200 block of E. Lake Harriet Parkway, said police spokesman Sgt. Steve McCarty. Gasoline and lighter fluid were found at the scene, he said.
The fire did little damage because the current owners were able to put it out before firefighters arrived, McCarty said.
He said that because Dayton once lived in the house, it is possible someone thought he still owned it and set the fire for political reasons.
So what does it mean if the ensuing investigation determines that a Republican apologist is responsible for this? It's more than a fair possibility we are going to hear leftist chanting points similar to what was heard in the aftermath of the Tucson, AZ shootings last January. Remember how Republicans and conservatives were lectured on how their "hateful rhetoric" was directly responsible for the actions of a madman? Never mind the gunman, Jared Lee Loughner, was determined to be apolitical.
Unfortunately, I fully expect some Minnesota libs will demagogue this despicable incident at Gov. Dayton's former home in an attempt to gain the moral high ground in the shutdown debate. In essence, we'll be told how this sort of civil unrest could have been avoided had those ghastly Republicans been more reasonable in the state budget talks. But that scenario in and of itself seems rather foolish. After all, the current screed by many DFLers is that the GOP is responsible for Government being shut down simply due to their unwillingness to make "the rich" pay their "fair share" of taxes. So are you going to tell me there's some crazy, right-wing arsonist out there who is setting fires on behalf of millionaires?
Of course, I may be overestimating the mindset of these lefties. As we learned with the Tucson incident, motive doesn't even need to be established in order for such leftist chanting points to ensue.
