In Ohio, operating agreements are a functional and important part of setting up a multiple member limited liability company ("LLC"). They set forth the operations of the company as between its members, including the members' rights and obligations to each other and the company, and the authority of its managers.
Under Ohio law, operating agreements are supposed to be prepared and signed at the commencement of the existence of the entity. Often times, the parties setting up the LLC fail to either prepare these documents or fail to execute them. Years later events may occur that require action that would have, and should have, been addressed in these agreements. It may be difficult, if not impossible, to complete them at such later time, for example when there is a member dispute. Operating agreements also provide an opportunity for estate planning for its members. If properly drafted, an operating agreement can transfer membership interests to a member's designated beneficiary upon his/her death, thus avoiding probate court intervention for the transfer of a member's interest, even if only for the purpose of selling that interest to another member or back to the company itself pursuant to the established buy-out provisions. While operating agreements are essential for multiple member LLCs, in a single member LLC, an operating agreement, or alternatively a written declaration of the operations and conduct of the LLC, should also be executed by the sole member.
The attorneys and paralegals at Thomas Law Group have years of experience in preparing operating agreements for our clients and advising them as to the benefits of such agreements. Please contact us if you have a question about either a new or an existing company and the inclusion of an operating agreement.

Conviction focuses on the true stories of different prisoners trying to come to terms with their crimes. It uses unaired footage from Lockup, one of MSNBC's documentaries, and shows how therapy can help inmates understand the events leading up to their incarceration. One episode, The Last Living Face, features a prisoner serving time for murder. John Robb must describe to his therapy group what drove him to commit violence. He explains that he was encouraged by an associate to break into a home and steal valuables from a safe. Although he initially refused to do it, the man threatened Robb's pregnant sister, and he felt like he had no other option. The decision to enter the home set into motion a series of events that led to the murder. Through stories like that of John Robb, Conviction shows how group therapy can be a catalyst for understanding and acceptance among prisoners.

Bounty Boards are located throughout the lands of Pandora. A bounty board is a mission-giving terminal where players can receive new missions and turn in completed missions for a reward. Most missions from bounty boards are given anonymously and offer rewards including Experience Points, cash, and equipment.
Bounty Boards
The following is a list of the Bounty Boards and their locations in the order which they become available.
- Fyrestone Bounty Board: Right outside Dr. Zed's office. It is not accessible until players obtain the Job Hunting mission from Dr. Zed.
- Lucky's Bounty Board: Located at the front of Lucky's Last Chance Watering Hole.
- New Haven Bounty Board: Located next to Marcus Kincaid's store at the north-east end of the town of New Haven.
- Middle Of Nowhere Bounty Board: In the Middle of Nowhere. This bounty board remains inactive until a mission chain to repair it is completed.
Zombie Island Of Dr. Ned
- Jakobs Cove Bounty Board: Located in the town of Jakobs Cove. Once Jakobs Cove Claptrap talks to players at the opening of the story he will leave for the bounty board and wait there for them to arrive.
Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot
- The Underdome Bounty Board: Located downstairs in the Underdome.
The Secret Armory of General Knoxx
- T-Bone Junction Bounty Board: Located near the western edge of T-Bone Junction.
Claptrap's New Robot Revolution
- Hyperion Tourist Information Board: Located in Tartarus Station.
Borderlands 2
- Liar's Berg Bounty Board in the Southern Shelf. It's always broken.
- Sanctuary Bounty Board
- Happy Pig Bounty Board: Found is just a stone's throw from the fast travel station of Three Horns - Valley, at the Happy Pig Motel.
- Overlook Bounty Board: Found in the center of town across from the Fast-Travel Station.
- Lynchwood Bounty Board: Inside the Lynchwood train station, up the stairs just before entering the town.
- Fyrestone Bounty Board: In the Arid Nexus Badlands
- Opportunity
- Eridium Blight
Captain Scarlett And Her Pirates Booty
- Oasis Bounty Board: In the town center across from the small water well.
- Pirate Bounty Board: on the main deck of The Buccaneer's Bacchanal.
Mister Torgue's Campain Of Carnage
- Crater Bounty Board
- Forge Battle Board
- Arena Bounty Board
- Pyro Pete's Bounty Board
Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt
- Hunter's Grotto Bounty Board
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
- Serenity's Waste: inside Janey Springs' old workshop in Oozless Harbor
- Concordia: in the corner between Up Over Bar and The Meriff's Office
- Triton Flats: inside a building with the exit to Concordia.
- Jack's Office: right next to the Fast Travel station.
- Lunar Launching Station: right next to the Fast Travel station.
- In Borderlands, whenever new missions become available on a local bounty board, they are announced by an ECHO message from a Claptrap. However, in Claptrap's New Robot Revolution, new missions are announced by the Hyperion Tourist and Information Center with a loudspeaker as its image. The same message is used ("There are more missions available at the Hyperion Tourist Information Bounty Board."), but it is said in a different voice. This is because of the uprising of the claptraps.
- Certain mission turn-in locations may be erroneously marked as a bounty board location, e.g. Wanted: Dead!, that being the only map marker available in the editor.

These Are the Best (and Worst) Times of Day to Fly to Avoid Delays
There are plenty or reasons to dread commercial air travel in 2019, from humorless flight attendants to poop-smearing passengers...
There are plenty or reasons to dread commercial air travel in 2019, from humorless flight attendants to poop-smearing passengers. Surprise delays are among the most annoying, though, leaving you stranded in a sterile airport and rudely cutting into precious vacation time (or screwing up a work trip). Luckily, there are a few tricks to beat the odds and ensure your schedule runs smoothly, and it all has to do with picking the right time of day to fly.
The folks at The Points Guy just analyzed a staggering seven million flights from 2018 and the frequency of on-time arrivals in an effort to figure exactly when the best and worst time of day to fly is, at least in terms of avoiding delays. TPG reports that 80% of domestic US flights arrived on time (more accurately, within 15 minutes of their scheduled arrival window) in 2018, but obviously not every flight has an 80% chance of getting where you're going exactly when you want.
So, the team looked at on-time arrival rate for flights on an hour-by-hour basis from 6am to 1am, and made some significant observations.
Notably, they found that the likelihood that you'll be on time diminishes the later in the day you fly. Specifically, they determined that the 7am hour is the best time to avoid being delayed (89.8% of flights arrived on time then), while both the 8am and 9am hours are the second and third best, respectively. The time of day you're most likely to be delayed is the 10pm hour, which is when TPG found that just 72.9% of flights were on time. The 8pm hour was second worst, while flying in the 9pm hour has the third-worst track record.
Here's what the full hour-by-hour breakdown looks like, and the rate of on-time arrivals.
- 6am to 6:59 am: 87.9%
- 7am to 7:59 am: 89.8%
- 8am to 8:59am: 88.6%
- 9am to 9:59am: 87.6%
- 10am to 10:59am: 86.2%
- 11am to 11:59am: 85.3%
- 12pm to 12:59pm: 84.7%
- 1pm to 1:59pm: 83.8%
- 2pm to 2:59pm: 82.1%
- 3pm to 3:59pm: 80.6%
- 4pm to 4:59pm: 79.1%
- 5pm to 5:59pm: 76.2%
- 6pm to 6:59pm: 75.4%
- 7pm to 7:59pm: 73.9%
- 8pm to 8:59pm: 73%
- 9pm to 9:59pm: 73.3%
- 10pm to 10:59 pm: 72.9%
- 11pm to 11:59pm: 74.5%
- 12am to 12:59pm: 73.5%
As TPG points out, it stands to reason that flights later in the day are less likely to get where they're going on schedule, since they can easily fall victim to a ripple effect of delays caused by late flights before them. Also, it's worth noting that not all airlines are equal when it comes to timeliness.
Obviously, flying out first-thing isn't always possible (and you may find significantly cheaper flights later in the day), but there's something to be said for hitting the road early. Besides, at that time of day, you may not even be awake enough to notice all the other annoyances.

M inersville residents will celebrate their community this weekend, highlighted by a presentation for gold-medal achievements.
The 22nd annual Spirit Day will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday on North Street, from Second to Fourth streets. The event will feature entertainment and vendors, including school organizations, booster clubs, civic groups, crafters and businesses. It is organized by the Minersville Spirit Day Committee, which is made up of Amy Eades, Ann Marie Zeth and Jerry Sitkus.
The main attraction will be a presentation honoring the Minersville Area High School girls' basketball and softball teams, who both won state championships this year. The ceremony will begin at noon on a stage in front of the high-rise apartment complex. Shawn Fitzpatrick will serve as master of ceremonies. Local officials and dignitaries scheduled to attend to honor the teams are state Sen. David G. Argall, R-29, Rush Township, and state Reps Mike Tobash, R-129, Pottsville, and Neal P. Goodman, D-123, Mahanoy City, as well as Schuylkill County commissioners Chairman George F. Halcovage. The booster clubs will also be present selling state championship T-shirts.
Following the ceremony, the Big and Bad Rockabilly Cats will take the stage until 3 p.m., followed by Steven Masser Acoustics until 5 p.m.
Entertainment will be held all day on Third Street highlighting local youth talent.

We use some of the best natural ingredients in Stops the Sting. Read on below to learn the healing properties and history behind these natural ingredients.
Colloidal Oatmeal
Colloidal Oatmeal is not only good for bug bites and stings but also rashes and other skin problems.
Colloidal oatmeal (Avena sativa) is finely ground oatmeal that is suspended in water or liquid to help with absorption and application (like for example in our Stops The Sting ointment). Since as early as 2000 B.C., people have been using colloidal oatmeal to soothe dry skin and relieve itching and irritations of various skin conditions. Fast forward a few thousand years, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration officially approved colloidal oatmeal in 2003 as an effective ingredient to treat skin inflammation.
But why does it work? Colloidal oatmeal contains antioxidants and saponins that give Stop the Sting its remarkable soothing quality. Besides soothing the sting, colloidal oatmeal contains anti-inflammatory, anti-itch and protective properties that help moisturize, clean and protect the damaged skin. It also contains vitamin E, which is anti-inflammatory and helps heal the affected area. Together, these qualities provide an effective solution to combat the poisonous substances that many insects inject when they sting or bite. Bottom line, colloidal oatmeal helps counteract what is making you itch and burn.
Kaolin Clay
Kaolin Clay, also known as China Clay, is another age-old ingredient known for its curative properties. Named for the soft white clay originally mined for centuries in a hill in China (Kao-ling), Kaolin clay was first brought to Europe by French Jesuit missionaries in the 1700s. Kaolin clay has been used in everything from a digestive first aid to treat upset stomach and diarrhea to a poultice to dry oozing and weeping poison ivy, oak and sumac rashes. Now, we use it in Stops the Sting to make bee stings, fire ant bites, and the bites and stings of most common insects disappear (like magic).
Kaolin Clay can vary from white to brown depending on the region it was mined.
So how does it work? Used commercially and medicinally for centuries, Kaolin clay has topical application as an emollient and drying agent. It has also been known to help detoxify and cleanse
Our last main ingredient is triethanolamine. Triethanolamine is a clear liquid that reduces the surface tension in emulsions. Better explained, it helps water-soluble and oil-soluble ingredients blend together better. Triethanolamine is a strong base, that is useful in adjusting the pH of a lot of cosmetic formulas such as eyeliners and mascaras. In addition, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has included triethanolamine on its list of indirect food additives for assisting in the washing or peeling of fruits and vegetables as an adhesive. And you thought it was just used to make Stops The Sting that much more effective.
Triethanolamine works by combining with fatty acids to convert acid to salt, which makes a perfect base for an effective cleanser. Cleaning the wound helps the colloidal oatmeal and kaolin clay do their jobs. Also, it works as an emulsifier that helps spread the ointment evenly over the skin. In common terms, triethanolamine helps make every application of Stops The Sting work as effectively as the last.
As you can see, this

The Seventh Grade Carnival
Last Friday was the 30th annual 7th grade carnival. The carnival is an important opportunity that the teachers and parent volunteers provide for the students. The 7th graders learn so many lessons through the process of planning, executing and cleaning up this event. These lessons include such things as working in groups, problem solving, time management, advertising, public speaking, communicating with adults, and even how to mop a floor. In many ways putting on the carnival is a rite of passage for the seventh graders. It is the first time that they, now as upper unit students, serve in a leadership role at the school. They are no longer the students playing the games or having their faces painted. They are now the "older students" running the games and painting the faces. One of my favorite parts of the carnival is seeing the seventh graders in their new role helping the young customers. This group did a great job, encouraging the younger children and making sure that everyone was having a great afternoon. Thanks to everyone who supported the seventh grade and helped them earn their way to Gettysburg this spring.
BACS Picnic (and Charity Fundraiser)
The Bryn Athyn Church School will be having their annual picnic on Friday, September 28th from 5:00-7:30pm at the BACS athletic fields. This traditional gathering has proven to be a nice opportunity to connect with old friends, meet new friends, and welcome new families to our school.
Similarly to last year, in addition to bringing your own picnic dinner you also have the option of purchasing hot dogs, along with chips and water, through our charity fundraiser. The funds we raise from these sales will be given to the Flood Relief Efforts in India, the New Church high school being established in Lesotho and to the Bryn Athyn Church's emergency relief fund.
We look forward to seeing you at this relaxed, fun-filled evening. All are welcome.

Happy Friday!
If it's the weekend, it must be time for a new writing prompt. You ask, we deliver! This week I'm thinking about book titles. Sure, they can make you want to pick up a title and browse through its pages, but for me, the titles of books can be inspirational. Today, for example, I saw one that promised "Ten Tales of Tilted Love." Tilted love? My muse immediately wanted to play with that idea. What kind of story would involve tilted love? How can love be tilted?
Your assignment this week is to take the titles of two books, any two books, and see where inspiration takes you. Remember, the goal here is not to combine the stories, but to find the inspiration for a completely different tale inspired by the titles.
The Show and Tell Challenge
Step right up and take the B&B Show and Tell Challenge! Here's how: simply write your response to this assignment, post it on your blog, then come back and leave a link to your post in the comments. It's that simple!

Chapter 33: SPEED
Worldwide 5 - 15% of all crashes are due to excessive speed.
A recent study by the British Transport Laboratory has found that excessive speed was a factor in fewer than 5% of more than 3000 traffic accidents analyzed. Driving associations in Britain are in uproar as these findings were ignored by the government that went onto speed £ 34 million on the "Kill your Speed" campaign launched in January 1999.
The danger is that government's worldwide continue to target speed and fool drivers into the misconception that safe driving is simply slower driving.
There is a worldwide push to continually lower speed limits and increased speed enforcement and penalties. We are fast reaching the time when drivers and car makers will revolt at the "big brother" controls on personal freedom.
Of the speed related crashes 70% are single vehicle accidents. Therefore it is true that speed is a large cause of driver error, driving too fast for the road, too fast for the conditions, too fast for the car or too fast for the driver.
Each year speed related crashes cost Australia in excess of $1 billion.
A significant amount of research has been undertaken to measure the effects of speed and crash involvement.
CREATED BY: CARL TAYLOR www.ctx1.tripod.com/driving
This research has indicated that there exists a high danger associated with large deviations in individual vehicle speeds from the average speed of the the traffic system on any particular road.
Queensland Transport highlights that driving 25 km/h faster than the surrounding traffic increases your risk of crashing by 10 times, no matter how good you are as a driver.
As such speed variance and not average travel speed influences the level of crash involvement. If all the traffic was flowing at 140-150 km/h the risk of a crash would be alot less than the traffic flowing at 105 km/h with several drivers weaving through the traffic at 140 km/h.
In Germany with its autobahns, there exists (when weather and traffic permits) open speed limits. The danger here is not the speed of travel its the cars traveling faster or slower than the surrounding traffic.
YES, slow vehicles have been shown to also increase the risk of a crash occurring.
Some research has shown that traveling 20 km/h slower than the surrounding traffic is just as dangerous as traveling 40 km/h faster. In fact low speed drivers are more likely to cause and be involved in an accident than high speed drivers. This has led to a call for both minimum and maximum speed limits to be set and enforced!
So how does this relate to the SPEED KILLS or ARE YOU DRIVING TOO FAST FOR THE UNEXPECTED message.
I guess we have all been mislead by the police and road safety experts into thinking that high speed driving automatically is dangerous.
If the majority of Australians were better trained and educated as drivers and if our road system was designed for it, higher speed limits (outside urban areas) would reduce the number of crashes occurring.
Image an open wide dual lane road with new bitumen that has a posted speed limit of 60 km/h. Research has shown that drivers adopt a travel speed according to the perceived risks. In this case the road environment is indicative of a low risk level.
Well at SAFE DRIVE TRAINING we believe there is two types of speeding;
These are the drivers that attempt to drive along a busy road faster than everyone else. These drivers are characterized by rapidly changing lanes, tailgating and driving aggressively, they are also the ones that end up at the next set of traffic lights 2 cars in front of you. They basically waste alot of their money and effort for very little reward. Here speeding is dangerous.
These are the drivers that take the time to ensure that their vehicle is well maintained and they drive according to the conditions and the flow of traffic. These drivers try to always obey speed limits and only increase speed if their actions don't impact on anyone.
OTHER POINTS OF VIEW:Dr. Ingo Kallina the head of safety research for Mercedes Benz has found "no link between speed and injury outcome. In Germany we have autobahns with unlimited speed and they are the safest". Dr. Kallina went on in his interview to question 110 km/hr speed limits and there effectiveness.
- "Even relatively minor increases over the speed limit can have serious consequences by increasing the risk of a crash and making crashes for severe if they occur" Inspector Peter Mansfield, Queensland Police
- I have read with amusement the stories about car dealers and misleading advertising. I find it ironic that government watchdogs monitor car dealers advertising then let Queensland Transport get away with false, or in the very least, unsubstantiated advertising. I refer to the ad that states speed cameras save lives and have reduce road fatalities. From where are these statistics derived? Furthermore, I would like to see real evidence that speed cameras have saved one life. I am not saying that speed cameras are not necessary. But let's hold our public servants to the same standard of honesty in advertising that we hold business. If Queensland Transport was to say that speed camera use is on the increase to slow traffic down, or catch more speeders, at least it would be believable. Maybe they don't want us to know the real reason for the cameras. Revenue enhancement perhaps? P.McDowall, Victoria Point
- Don't speed. You are only running late because you left late.
- Bribe a feathered friend into following you around all day and flying in front of speed cameras
- Block your number plate with your foot as you ride past. Good luck
- Blacken out your number plate and leave a hand gesture as a sign of thanks
- Remove your number plate and have your passenger leave a message for police

Breakfast of Champions?
It's not toasted, golden, buttery or even warm. Personally, just making it gives me the heebie jeebies, but my #2 son loves them. If you can't tell it's a bagel with cream cheese. A plain bagel with cream cheese. Can you tell it's not toasted? Yes folks it never saw the light of a toaster. No, the cream cheese is not melting as you spread it, becoming nice and gooey, because it's not even warm.
With 4 kids, you gotta figure one of them is going to be a little different when it comes to eating. This is only one of the things...

The impact of lean production on a company's bottom line depends on employee engagement, from entry-level workers to senior executives.
Though its roots can be traced back to Henry Ford, lean production or lean manufacturing – often simply "lean" – is generally ascribed to Toyota and the development in the 1940s of the Toyota Production System, known as the TPS. The aim is to streamline production processes and increase productivity. In practice, it advocates "an organizational culture of highly engaged people solving problems or innovating to drive performance," said Jamie Bonini, vice president at Toyota Engineering and Manufacturing North America.
Manufacturers in the U.S., such as General Electric, started adapting the approach in the 1980s. The 1991 publication of The Machine That Changed the World by researchers at MIT, led by James Womack, precipitated its widespread adoption. This is also when it gained the "lean production" moniker. "When we came up with the name lean production, what we meant was the complete system," Womack said. "What the world heard was factories. But the frontier has been outside of the factory world for the last 20 years."
Womack is a founder and chairman of the non-profit Lean Enterprise Institute. Its approach, which differs somewhat from TPS, focuses on "eliminating waste, rethinking work flow and improving productivity," the New York Times explains, with an emphasis on involvement at all levels of the organization. Terminology aside, the goal is to improve the production process, said Rachna Shah of the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota. Without working on streamlining continuously "in a disciplined way over the long term, you cannot have the same levels of improvement in productivity," she added.
The challenge of this sustained, company-wide engagement is one reason the success of lean production has been inconsistent. Jim Lancaster, CEO of Kentucky-based equipment manufacturer Lantech and author of The Work of Management, said that at his company, the lean approach only worked for so long "because of the natural deterioration that can occur. People change, tools get dull and an engineer may change the design without preparing others on the line." Profits from newer products improved, but the company's base business suffered, leading it to refocus on its original lines.
Those who adopt a lean approach say that they want to reduce waste, but not their workforce. Rightly so, given that human capital is likely the make-or-break element. In fact, employee engagement at all levels of the organization is crucial to making lean work. If employees are motivated to look for waste, in time or materials, and find ways to adjust their processes, even in seemingly miniscule ways, the sum of their lean efforts can have a substantial impact on the company's bottom line.

|VN's air transportation strives to make ASEAN's top four by transport volume
The move aims to make Viet Nam's air transportation market among the top four markets in the ASEAN region in terms of transport volume, whilst developing fleets of aircraft in the direction of applying technological and technical advances.
The revised plan also seeks to develop a system of airports with a designed capacity meeting the transportation demand, together with establishing and developing three ASEAN-level centers for passenger and cargo transportation.
The passenger transport market is targeted to grow 16% annually in the 2015-2020 period and 8% in the 2020-2030 period, while the cargo transport market aims for an annual growth of 18% and 12% for the periods of 2015-2020 and 2020-2030, respectively.
Under the plan, the transport volume of Vietnamese airports will reach approximately 64 million passengers and 71 billion passenger-kilometers, and 570,000 tons of cargo and 5.2 billion ton-kilometers by 2020. The figures will be 131 million passengers and 125 billion passenger-kilometers, and 1.7 million tons of cargo and 17 billion ton-kilometers, respectively, by 2030.
By 2020, the transport volume via the airports is expected to hit roughly 131 million passengers and 2.2 million tons of cargo per year, while the combined designed capacity of airports will reach 144 million passengers and 2.5 million tons of goods annually.
The plan targets to exploit a system of 23 airports, including 13 domestic ones and 10 international ones, by 2020, with the four airports of Noi Bai, Da Nang, Tan Son Nhat and Cam Ranh being the international gateways.
By 2030, Viet Nam will exploit a system of 28 airports, including 15 domestic ones and 13 international ones, with the five airports of Noi Bai, Da Nang, Cam Ranh, Tan Son Nhat and Long Thanh being the international gateways.
The restructuring of State-owned enterprises will be accelerated until 2020, aiming to create favourable conditions for air enterprises to participate in and operate in the field of aviation under the socialist-oriented market mechanism.
Efforts will be strengthened to develop the national flag carrier, Vietnam Airlines, as a key air transport force, with its international competition capacity among the leading groups of the ASEAN region.
The plan also seeks to renovate and improve the operational efficiency of the Vietnam Air Traffic Management Corporation (VATM), aiming to ensure that the management and supply of flight management services in the Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City Flight Information Regions meet the standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).

My beautiful older sister Veronica, just coming around from surviving a hard-fought battle against breast cancer, admitted to me, while we searched around in her well stocked fridge to prepare a meal, that she was afraid to eat anything:
"Honestly, I'm afraid to put anything in my body now, because it may cause the cancer to come back.", Veronica said.
I could see the trepidation in her face. And a real fear.
When you've been through the fire, you become a bit wiser. And my sister's common sense was telling her that she should not continue eating in the manner she had been accustomed to and expect to have a different outcome. Although her refrigerator held lots of food, the majority of it was over-processed, under-fortified, pesticide-ridden and genetically altered. As beings of the Earth, not much of what we eat these days comes directly from Her. We are becoming a planet of the sick and dying, in part, because of that.
My sister's post-op recovery relied significantly on her gaining back her weight and replenishing her body with the nutrients and vitamins and countless live cells that were destroyed by the cancer and chemo treatments. This became an arduous task in and of itself because, as we discovered from our own researching on "cancer causing foods", most of the foods we've eaten and enjoyed all our lives — and were now looking to build up her strength and vitality with — were the same ones that more than likely contributed to her cancer in the first place.
Of course scientist have not readily admitted to pinning down any one cause of cancer in any of its various mutations, but surely ingesting foods and drinks purposely contaminated with a cocktail of known carcinogens; pesticides, chemical preservatives and genetically modified materials doesn't do a body good.
Now its highly possible that we are quickly approaching the period where Mother Earth will no longer be able to feed her children. Inhibited by over industrialization, state/government appropriation of farmland, the contamination of her waters, the prohibition by corporate raiders of farmlands rotating crops for the sake of the soil and global warming — the ability of Earth to produce wholesome, healthy foods may one day be impossible if we continue on the path that we are now on.
Our Planet cannot sustain living, growing, healthy organisms in dead, chemical riddled soil, so humankind — having backed itself into a corner — has had to create food sources that will thrive in a futuristic, poisonous environment while also having a long shelf life. Enter stage left: genetically modified organisms or GMOs and extremely toxic pesticides and preservatives.
Fortunately for my sister, a day after her cryptic admission, we were paid a visit by an angel in the form of a visiting nurse from a service provided by her hospital.
RN Lateesha Gomez (not her real name — but just as unusual), also happened to be a practitioner of holistic wellness — a practice that underscores the nutritional value of the foods we eat as profoundly affecting our well-being and our lives as a whole. Like an Angel of Truth she relieved us of our worries with just two words: Eat Organic. Contrary to the pharmaceutically based industry that she was a part of, she spoke to us about the benefits of a more wholesome approach to our consumption of food and beverages. Of course we've always known about organic foods, but like a lot of folks, we associated it with hippies and Euell Gibbons asking "Ever eat a pine tree? Many parts are edible." in those awkward Grape Nuts Cereal commercials lol! But organic foods are a serious business!
According to the UDSA, under the organic production guidelines; conventional non-synthetic pesticides, insecticides and herbicides are generally restricted in the growth or production of an organic foodstuff. Antibiotics and hormones are prohibited from livestock consumption, and genetic modification or application of nanotechnology is generally excluded from organic food. Foods claiming to be organic must be free of artificial food additives, and fewer artificial methods, such as chemical ripening or food irradiation.
Nurse Gomez also gave us some helpful pointers, like;
1. "DO NOT COOK WITH OLIVE OIL": My family got aboard the magic train of virgin olive oil years ago and was using it to cook EVERYTHING! The danger is that when olive oil is heated it releases carcinogenic material. Instead, use olive oil as a dressing, a marinade or for dips. Nurse Gomez suggested that we cook with coconut oil that was labeled extra virgin, cold pressed, non GMO and organic.
2. "DO NOT USE ANTIPERSPIRANTS": The body sweats for a reason, to remove toxins from it. Imagine what a backed up toilet looks like. A deodorant is different, and should be used instead of an antiperspirants. For a natural solution if you don't want to use chemicals under your arms, but will have a problem going without a deodorizer, Nurse Gomez suggested using baking soda sprinkled into some water and patted under the arm. You can also use the juice of a lemon and pat some into your armpits!
3. "EAT YOUR (SUPER) GREENS": Getting in your daily greens is a must, says Nurse G. She recommends Doctor's Select™ Spirulina Super Greens with 1,000 mg Spirulina, (you can pick this up at Costco or order online). The fresh spirulina used is grown only in the dry, pure air of the Sonora Desert of southeastern California. There, at the largest spirulina farm in the world, state-of-the-art aqua-farming technology yields the highest quality, non-allergenic, natural spirulina, free of weed algae and toxins, and containing no pesticides, herbicides or preservatives, and GMO-free.
4. "EAT LESS AND LESS OF PROCESSED FOODS": That's a given. If you have a fast food meal for lunch and later on, dinner at a restaurant, the amount of salt, sugars and fats can already average out to be about 2/3 of your daily requirements.
5. "LOOK FOR THE ORGANIC SECTION AT YOUR GROCER'S AND SHOP THERE": Even small neighborhood markets are getting in step and have begun stocking organic foods on their shelves. Almost every large city in the U.S. has a Chinatown and you should visit it to get fresh fish and vegetables as well as your grains and nuts. If you aren't sure if the products are organic, ask the owner. Of course there is Costco, Fairways and Whole Foods markets to shop at, but prices there can make your eyes bug out! My sister and I however, have decided we will make that sacrifice. The latest up-to-the-minute fashions won't do us any good if we're not here for anyone to see us in them, ya' know? Real, good health is all the beauty anyone needs anyway! Just make sure you read those food labels carefully.
6. "GROCERY SHOP AT YOUR LOCAL ORGANIC FARMERS MARKET": Every city has one. And the growers on hand love questions about their crops and the benefits of eating them, so ask away. Make certain they state that they grow their items with no preservatives, no chemical pesticides and no GMO seedlings.
7. "DRINK ALMOND MILK INSTEAD OF SOY": The popularity of soy has already driven researchers of food manufactures to come up with GMO derivatives of soy, a lot of which are used in soy-based products. Unless you have an allergy to nuts, almond milk is a good substitute.
Sis and I thought the organic route was as good a plan as any. We went shopping strictly in the organic sections of a neighborhood Fairway Market and whether it was in our imaginations or something else, when we sat down to eat the meal we had prepared from our shopping expedition, there was a sense of peacefulness that came over us both, knowing that at least those forkfuls of food going down were doing us a lot less harm than good. We enjoyed that first healthy meal thoroughly.
And hey — my sister and I don't expect to turn into some sort of gurus of holistic healing. Nor do we expect that we can completely eliminate all the "bad food" from our diets, but we intend to do the best we can as often as we can to prolong our stay here on this crazy, beautiful world just a little bit longer everyday. And that's the most we can do!

Some years back, I had a unique curry meal at a cafe where the owner told me that their in-house popular Chicken & Jackfruit Curry was actually a Eurasian dish. It was a close version of our Singapore Chicken Curry but with slices of fresh jackfruits added. The jackfruits made the curry really aromatic.
My mother gave me some succulent jackfruits this weekend and it brought back memories of that unforgettable tasty chicken and jackfruit curry that I had. I decided to replicate it for my family to try tonight. The result wasn't quite up to the one I had but the entire dish was wiped out nevertheless. The coconut gravy was sinfully delicious that we finished up to the last drop. Jackfruits really blend well with the chicken meat in the curry.
Some online recipes suggest adding kaffir leaves & tamarind juice to the gravy. Since I have several jackfruits left, I shall give this other version a try soon [ref Chicken and Jackfruit Curry (2) ]
Ingredients :
2 large chicken thighs, cut into smaller pieces
6 pieces of jackfruit, seeded & cut into thick slices
1 large potato, skinned & cut into thick slices
3 pcs shallots, minced
1 pc garlic, minced
1 stalk of lemon grass, crushed
1″ knob ginger, sliced
1″ knob galangal, sliced
250ml thick coconut milk
250ml hot water
1/2 bottle of ready nonya curry paste (available at supermarket)
3 tablespoon cooking oil for frying
Salt to taste
Method :
1) Heat oil. Fry minced shallots & garlic, lemon grass, ginger & galangal for 3 mins. Add the curry paste and stir fry until fragrant.
2) Add the chicken meat and potatoes and stir fry until the meat is partially cooked.
3) Add the hot water and bring to boil. Toss in the sliced jackfruits, mix well and leave it to simmer for 10mins.
4) After that, add in the thick coconut milk. Cover pan and continue to simmer on low heat for another 10 mins until gravy is thick and creamy. Season with salt for taste.
5) Serve hot with steamed rice or baguette.

Well he said he'd be bringing a ton load of different vibes in 2015 and seems like Bunji Garlin is putting his money where his mouth is. Obviously undaunted by any possibility of being criticized for his efforts, the Trinidad Soul Train Award recipient has made his debut on the rap scene.
In a newly released video and single, Bunji's heard freestyling as we all know he's quite capable of doing, alongside rappers Gauge and Pettidee. The track's called, "Stay In Your Lane" and hears Bunji lend his vocals to what has been touted as a positive rap song.
Meanwhile, with Jamaica Carnival just around the corner, Garlin, Fay-Ann and the Asylum Vikings are scheduled to perform at Bacchanal Jamaica's, Untamed event, sponsored by Digicel, this Friday.
The journey continues for the Vikings. Where it leads, we'll have to wait and see.
Check out the video for "Stay In Your Lane" and be sure to let us know what you think.

14th February 1992,
Maybe because we're nobody and a definite direction is nothing but a handy bit of self-deceit to stop us from losing our minds, I've chosen to situate myself in loss, a sound course, the chaos that embodies me. To have been there and done it, and yet to be undone. In this rural hotel room where so many travellers have left their dreams and something of their intimacies, a clean slate now peopled with the ghosts of others that probably wash over me so as to begin afresh, the romantic me listens to the odourless mooing of working cows, poor grazing numbers, although farmers claim each one has a name, just as we have names and numbers and we graze and produce milk, usually skimmed. Amidst this pastoral serenity, the confused me can't understand why you didn't want to go with Cookie, if she loved you to death, insisting unequivocal you'd never find anyone else like me, though you know all I really want is to abandon myself to poetry, the medicine that heals all my ills, not to mention your unbearable jealousy towards poets and my evenings spent with their words, the phone off the hook, when you appeared before me like a spectre pleading clemency, knowing everyone wants to be with Cookie and Cookie didn't want anyone but you and all I wanted was to be with the poets, me the dreamer. And as you know, I've always brushed things that bother me aside as if they didn't exist, but with you it's been different, and if I cut your life's thread, sorry for leaving my vagina dentata in your jugular, it was for my survival, to protect myself, because you kept trying to invade my every nook and cranny. Now here in this Welsh village, where there's nothing to do but walk along mountain paths, look at your muddy reflection in puddles and catch glimpses of wandering spirits, the farmer cooks stews and says we city people always turn up with a face on, and when I go to my room, the solitary me, the farmer never bothers me and I can lose myself in reading, in the animal-shaped soaps I've brought and whose faces I like to disfigure gradually through use while thinking of you, until they have no eyes, noses or mouths left, the evil me, a little as though I've annihilated them and I've already made myself at home in this room, the nomadic me skipping from hotel to hotel, from identity to identity, from object of desire to object of desire, the empty hangers coming in handy for my black clothes, my kimonos, I'm anonymous here in the midst of it all, where I can abandon myself in the reading that fills my cortex with words and stare out of the garden window, deep in thought. And as you know, I'm always searching for something that I don't find, because you weren't the you I was looking for and maybe I'm not even the me that gave up anymore, because the farmer will be nothing but an erotic souvenir of my Valentine's Day stay in this improbably named paradise in Wales:
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. Why wouldn't you let me speak?
19th March 1992, Madrid
Because you're softening my will with the camouflage of that telephone smile of yours and when either of us hangs up, I rewind the tape and listen thousands of times over to the spirits of your voice until I memorise the pauses, the unfinished phrases, most of all your silences and then the dizzying echoes of your silences, because you please me, darling, because if I've come here it's just to hear your voice from that bit closer, the timid me.
The hotel is a grotty dive, for only a dive of a hotel can boast not only views of a Moroccan in flames as people look on, the smell of petrol in the air, and a skinhead legging it with a toolbox and rug that belonged to the now-scorched guy, indifferent thanks to the relentless bruises he's endured in the ebb and flow of a life condemned, but also a broken bathroom tap although the man assures me it'll be working very soon, when I focus on the tap as if it was an object of desire, the water running spasmodically through the pipes and every time I hear a spluttering sound I jump, the neurotic me, sensing it's going to bite me, though for the time being it remains impassive. I call reception '547 9321 please' and quickly conjure up an excuse to listen to your sexy voice once more and I get the tape recorder ready which I always have at hand to record you with, because I always record every conversation, just in case, to study what people say and what they don't. And then you answer and cleverly I say the following: it's me, the amorphous me, I'm all possibilities, even the erotic ones, and you, disembodied like an echo I'm chasing, you apologise, I'm sorry you've got the wrong number, while I lovingly trace my tongue slowly over the receiver as if it were your ear, the erotomaniac me who dreams of licking you until you dissolve, and you hang up, and I rewind the cassette and ecstatically consume your words thousands of times like a drug, eventually finding something odd about your intonation as if you were tired or something, and then your final silence. And I could go to the Prado to see Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights, a triptych of eternal mirrors reflecting life, the moralist me demanding order, but today's a Monday and it's closed, and I think about the frenzy of solitary creatures in groups I've missed out on, although I'm sure, the obsessive me, that I'd really have gone, just as I always do, to visit the mad people in their tawdry-gilt crowns and the witches and especially Saturn devouring his children because I'm fascinated by the similarity between him and my father and the headless body I imagine to be me. But now the water's coming thick and fast and I let it run and run, a drought-like thirst turned cerebral bleed: I'm sorry but you've got the wrong number, and I call back a moment later to check whether it really was and when you answer I hang up because you still might not know that I'm searching desperately for you and then I rewind the tape and listen, dumbstruck: hello? … hello? … hello?
1st May 1992, near Tenochtitlan
Hello? I was wondering whether you have a harder bed, this one makes a high-pitched screeching sound in the night, the lack of natural light is a shame and … It's the only room with a double bed, if you're going to break it I'd rather you went to stay at some other B&B, replies the woman much to our confusion. And the democratic me has just met you on the motorway 30 km from this abandoned town, the ardent me, and you look at me and smile, and I study you in return as a warm-up exercise, the calculating me. You look back at me. And I think of the hundreds and hundreds of bodies that have passed through this room, the hundreds and hundreds of bodies that have passed through my own body, realising now that I'm a hotel, a hotel room complete with a bathroom where they've all deposited their shit, their implausible embraces, their rehearsed words, repeating my name in a bed where they've all left their fluids, their pubic hairs and their mange, this really is the last time, in this overly soft bed with stiff sheets and in the windowless blackness I figure I'm going to start charging from now on, sick of all these bodies, so many bodies dying all over me as if I were a graveyard. Sick of hopping from one body to the next, it's that scar on your cheek that's made my mind up, this is the very last time, thinks the spiritual me wearing a Buddha print dress and I'm a nurse I say, too young you say, and you ask why, and in this dark life of ours, I'm sorry, because I'm utterly devoted to the thrilling shiver that transpires before the unknown, and I don't want to know your name I reply, I just want to look at you, especially at that scar on your cheek sprouting a few hairs, sure I've never liked men in uniform, because you're a policeman. And you look blindly at the shadow of a fish cast on the ceiling by the lamp and some wiring, and there's a painting of the sea hanging over the bed, an absolute sea that could be a window leading to a faraway escape. And the childish me can't decide whether to play doctors and nurses anymore, because they always think I'm nuts, especially when I get the nurse's uniform out of my suitcase as I'm doing now and vowing violently to give you a suppository while you start hurriedly throwing your clothes on, I shout: HANDS UP. Because with some men it just comes naturally to want to give them a suppository as if they had some unseen illness, for healing is my mission.
9th October 1992, Paris
I'm not planning to get up until you come and kiss me passionately on the lips, I think sleepily from my solitary bed, from the chaos in my life, because I must admit there's been some turmoil in my life of late, not least since I got the boot from the magazine for making up the exhibitions I wrote about, even falsifying the visual material using little mock-ups I'd made myself, the fraudulent me, and so I'm no longer a correspondent or anything now and I've decided to blow my last pay cheque on travelling the world until I find you, me with nothing but the clothes on my back, no luggage, in my yellow heels, having always felt like a foreigner wherever I go anyway, especially in my body, and I thought maybe you'd too be searching the world for me, this crazed world. But then if somebody else happens to come along tonight I might just close my eyes, although I wish it was you, for I can be weak-willed at times as you know, finding it impossible to stick to my intentions, my promises even more so. And as you weren't coming I went out for a walk and at reception, the cabinet behind the desk hung with so many keys to so many doors, they told me they'd stay open all night, so I've been ambling through the deserted streets of Paris, as deserted as my existence and on my return, the night porter seemed so alone that I invited him for a drink in my room and he was only too happy to accept, but you know that I love only you. And as we talked of this and that, I happened to tell him I was really into Beckett, the existentialist me, and next thing I know he's hypnotising me with a well-known bit of Bécquer from his school days: the soul that aspires to paradise searching without faith grows tired, a wave without purpose that rolls not knowing why, and know that if your red lips are scorched by some unseen blast of air, that the soul whose eyes can speak might also kiss with a glance, and when he looked at me I began to drift off once more, the sleeping beauty me irked by a pea from beneath the mattresses.

Sleep is a wonderful thing. I am feeling more like myself. There is still some stress and sadness but I am no longer blue. And I have come through this partly because I kept exercising which was good for my head and I did not overeat. Mentally and physically, my body came through feeling alright. On this occasion, I did not let the old ways rule my actions. I don't think I have been as aware before of my choice not to indulge in emotional/comfort eating. I must remember that I can choose better ways. It won't happen on every occasion but I have really started forming new habits and patterns if under stress I can choose a better way.
I did very well last week. I met all of my mini goals. Setting the mini goals was just what I needed to really bring my focus back and it worked.
– I exercised every day, averaging 73 mins a day which is a step up for me. I don't always do my exercise in one block, I include my two 15 min walks from the carpark to work in that because I choose to park that far away to increase my exercise
– I walked up the stairs at work.
– I ate according to my food plan, averaging at 8090kJ a day.
– I did not have any alcohol.
My stats today are
Starting weight: 140.9 kg (310 lbs)
Today's weight: 95.5 kg (210.1 lbs)
Lost since last weigh in (2 weeks ago): 1kg (2.2 lbs)
Total lost: 45.4 kg (99.9 lbs)
Today, I am rounding up. 99.9 lbs – I am calling it 100. I have lost 100 lbs. And I am so proud of that. My next goal is close by – I am looking forward to another kg gone which takes me to a loss of 1/3 my start weight.
But also, today, I ran 2kms for the first time and I came in at 14.26 minutes. I am thrilled that I can run 2km and that I came in under 15. I was so excited. Towards the end, my legs were getting a little weary but my breathing was steady. After the 2km run, I had a 5 min break followed by another 1km run. And I completed the 1km jogging – I did not have to slow to a walk. My time was a little slower but I did it. I had an awesome workout this morning and I felt so much better for it.
My day was already excellent by 8 am! And amazingly I had some great workstuff happen and so it wasn't all downhill from there.
This week I will have some interesting challenges. There is a work lunch, a dinner out, my mother coming to stay and a 4km fun run on Sunday. I plan to exercise everyday again and I will aim for 60min in total a day. I will do my running training on Wed and Fri which leaves me a rest day before the fun run (rest meaning no running not no exercise). I hope to run most of the 4km in the fun run. My exercise will offset some of the social occasions. But even with the social occasions I will choose wisely. I have already pre-ordered lunch for Friday. I have lots of tricks up my sleeve to keep on track; I have started accepting that no alcohol is one of my best strategies for staying on track. I have goals in front of me to help me stay focussed. I won't need to round up for long.
