Aaron Detlors, Six Nation's Haudenosaunee Development Institute Creating a new set of victims will harm native support in Canada
By Bill McIntyre, Canada Free Press Saturday, March 8, 2008
The threat to private land posed by native land claims is the elephant in the room neither governments nor the courts want to talk about. Supported by a bevy of lawyers and encouraged by governments too timid to stand up to them, a growing assault against privately-owned land is now well underway in this country. The tactic is simple. First, the land claims are filed, and then followed quickly by the imposition of jurisdiction over the land claimed in advance of the issue being legally resolved. In B.C., overlapping land claims account for something like 125 per cent of the total land mass. The Liberal government, waving aloft various court decisions, has given native bands veto power over any development projects within their claimed territory. In other words, nothing moves in B.C. without "consultations" with native groups. Still, this has not resolved ongoing conflicts. The problem is, no one has been able to define exactly what "consultation" really entails. As a result, the province has lost at least two mines and is in danger of losing a third, at a time when the mainstay forest industry is going through a depression. In B.C.'s Central Interior, plans for a modern landfill were scuttled by Metro Vancouver politicians under the influence of the provincial government because they were afraid the move would give natives the foothold their lawyers want to give them the right to claim privately-held land as their own. In fact, it is already too late. The situation in Ontario is even worse. The often violent occupation in Caledonia by Six Nations warriors has prompted the natives to claim even more territory while the McGuinty Liberal government does nothing to protect the citizens of not only the community, but all of Haldimand Region. Meanwhile, the native strategy is to assert government-like control over a huge swath of land along the Grand River Watershed. Something called the Haudenosaunee Development Institute (HDI) is sending its representatives around demanding development fees from would-be builders. According to reports by CBC and The Hamilton Spectator, the fees would ensure that developers would be left alone. The tactic is reminiscent of those who demand protection money from others to ensure no harm comes to them.
Some developers have reportedly been asked for $7,000 just to apply for permits. And what is Premier Dalton McGuinty's reaction? Well, he's telling people not to pay the fees. Of course he is offering no protection to the victims of such demands. But here is the most telling comment of all. Toronto lawyer Aaron Detlor who, according to a Jan. 15, 2008 CBC report, heads the Six Nation's Haudenosaunee Development Institute and was one of the architects of its creation, was quoted as saying this is just the start. "We are going to go out, and identify specific areas where it's clear there's been no surrender and no payment, and go and advise people, this is not your land," Detlor according to various reports. From this their intentions are pretty clear. He is also quoted as saying that the "Haldimand Tract is only the beginning. Ontario, New York and parts of Ohio are all under land claims." I would dearly love to see them trying this tactic in the U.S. And it's not what he is saying that should keep homeowners awake at night, it is what is not being said. Nowhere in my research on this subject did I find any reference to what the natives would not do. Will they not tax private property? Will they not deny people access to their homes through further occupations? And who are these people is he referring who will be served notice they no longer own their land, homes or businesses? And what will be the reaction of mortgage lenders? All reports coming out of embattled Caledonia indicate the Ontario Liberal government has ordered its provincial police force (OPP) to not enforce existing laws, criminal or civil, against natives. They have not hesitated, however, to shove local non-native residents into paddy wagons for the terrible offence of trying to fly a Canadian flag. It seems like a lopsided law enforcement system. And there's the sad case of builder Sam Gualtieri that is held up as an example of the lack of protection accorded victims of native violence. Mr. Gualtieri was building his daughter a home when the place was overrun by a mob of natives who beat him nearly to death. Mr. Gualtieri has brain damage, cannot work and has lost his business. What have the police done? Nothing. What has Premier McGuinty done? Nothing. What Canadian home and business owners have to fear is that neither their provincial nor federal governments have any interest in protecting their property rights. In reality, in Canada, they do not have to. Property rights are not enshrined in Pierre Trudeau's Charter of Rights and Freedoms. To whom would you turn if some native band suddenly showed up at your door with Mr. Detlor in tow to inform you your land is their land and your house is their house? And if the Six Nation's HDI or similar group demands payment of some kind of a homeowner what does the homeowner do? They certainly cannot turn to the police, the courts or the politicians for help. To whom do they then turn? If Mr. Detlor, with all due respect to his legal prowess, or governments or municipalities think the population of this country will simply roll over like so many whipped dogs and say `yes, please, take my property,' they are sadly mistaken, if not outright delusional. If this assault on private property continues, and the courts back up the natives' assertion of authority and control over non-band lands with the subsequent loss of private ownership rights, the door will have been opened to an unprecedented backlash against the native community.
It seems to me the potential for violence is growing exponentially with each passing day. Consider that native bands, with support of the courts, can apparently lay claim to huge tracts of land in Toronto, Ottawa, Winnipeg, Regina, Vancouver, Victoria and just about any other community in the country, and it gives you some idea of the potential for violence, civil disobedience and lawlessness. I would suggest that most Canadians agree that First Nations people have had a raw deal in this Confederation. I would also argue most want to see things change and want to help repair the damage done to First Nations people. I would also suggest that most Canadians have been generous and have encouraged governments to deal equitably with the native people. But the activist lawyers, judges and politicians are making a serious error in judgment if they think creating another set of victims, will bring peace and justice to the land. They will not bring peace. Instead they will unleash anger, hatred and violence. Then who will the Aaron Detlors of the world blame? Posted 03/8 at 08:17 PM

Alina Grigorescu's story is fascinating – she was a Romanian gymnastics international before leaving the sport because she was 'too old' (to put that in context she's only 32 now).
She went on to work in the theatre in Romania but there wasn't a lot of money in it so she joined the Zippo Circus here in theUK. She now runs the rhythmic gymnastics at GLL's Hendon Leisure Centre. All of which explains how she ended up coaching John, Charlotte, Jon and I one grey Monday afternoon.
To her credit she managed to keep a smile on her face (occasionally bordering on outright laughter) as I failed to do the splits, made a complete mess of my forward roll / cartwheel / hand stand and made various cack-handed attempts to perform tricks with a ball, hoop and skipping rope. To be fair, the other 3 offered more promising material but, overall, I suspect we didn't represent the pinnacle of her professional career.
For all my ineptitude, she gave us a thorough work out – including some stretches I can still feel a week later – and a great introduction to rhythmic gymnastics. She then choreographed a routine for the four of us incorporating the skills we'd 'learnt' – enjoy!
Enjoyed the routine? Why wouldn't you… But if so please do sponsor my efforts here: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/DansGoldChallenge. Every donation, no matter how large or how small is really appreciated.

It's school time in a week! I'm sure it has started in other parts of the world, as well.
I guess the kids have mixed feelings.
Some maybe excited to see their teachers and classmates once again.
Others may feel a little bit sad that summer vacation will be done and they will be missing the late night sleep and sleeping-in the following morning, the camping, the out of towns, the never ending video games, etc.
For your child with special needs, they may have the same mixed feelings.
I guess they are more excited than the regular kids. I know they show more enthusiasm and elation.
They are more open to express their joy and eagerness to be back on track.
How about the first timers? Is your child with special needs starting school just this year? How does he or she feel about it?
Maybe a little bit nervous to be out there on his own? Or also excited to be with other kids his age?
Of course I'm talking about those kids who are verbal and could express themselves already.
For the non-verbal ones, I guess the parents are the ones who are either nervous or excited.
So, my dear parents, have you started buying the things that your child needs come school opening or you already have bought some essentials way back in June or July and just about to complete the list?
This post maybe a little bit late but I'm sure it's still very helpful for that final look for school must-haves.
I have prepared a back to school checklist for moms ( and dads, of course ) – what to buy and prepare for your child with special needs, so be ready to check out what you still need.
This post contains affiliate links. Read the full affiliate disclosure here.
1. Adaptive stroller
- If your child is still non-ambulatory or is walking but gets tired easily, this is really essential.
- If he rides the school bus, there is a specific stroller that has optional transit or school bus tie-downs that you can buy or secure for your special kid, as shown below.
- These strollers are usually what they sit on in the classroom as well, so choose properly with the help of his therapist or rehabilitation doctor.
Click here for some choices of adaptive strollers
2. School bag
- This is very important as well.
- You have to consider a few things though. If your child has attended school the previous year, you might not need to buy a new one if his bag is still useful.
- I know kids always want something new, but if you feel his old one still looks okay, a little talk with your kid might be all you need to let him know that he doesn't need a new one.
- Anyway, if you're ready to purchase a new one, keep some things in mind before buying. How big does your child need for his bag? Big enough to put his sweater or jacket in winter?
- Will his lunch bag plus some school essentials like his planner and pencil case fit in comfortably?
- How heavy will it be with all the essentials in there? Think of his back for all the time that he will be carrying his bag. Is it a long walk from his classroom to the parking lot or to the bus stop?
- Does he need just a back pack or a school bag with wheels?
Please see some choices below. Click the image to see the price.
Click here for more choices of backpacks
3. Lunch bag / kit
- The size will depend on how many hours is your special child staying in school or the time of his class.
- If he is in school for just 2 hours, more or less, then he needs to bring in snacks only but if his school time is done just about lunch time maybe you need to pack lunch for him.
- Consider packing a crunchy snack because chewing is great for reducing stress and a good concentration tool.
- Of course during recess, your special child needs to eat something to reward him for a good day or to sustain his interest to learn his lessons.
Look at these awesome lunch bags that your kid might love. Click the image to see the price.
4. Water bottle
- A 2 glass water bottle is also an essential part of his bag. He needs to be hydrated at all times so he will not be sluggish and will continue to be receptive of the day's lessons.
- After a hectic or an active day, your special child needs to drink his juice or plain water ( the healthier option ), so be sure to fill his water bottle to the brim!
- Make sure to buy a BPA and PVC free water bottle which has leak proof lid with cap.
Here are some awesome water bottles, click the image to see the price
5. Pencil case
- Choose something that is spacious enough to fit in his pencils, markers, and sharpeners.
- Your special child will love opening and using a pencil case with designs that he loves like animal prints or his favorite cartoon character.
- Having a pencil case will teach your special child to organize his stuff and put them back properly to where they belong. This develops in him responsibility.
Here are some choices. Click the image to see the price.
6. Pencils, markers, and crayons
- Buy as many as you can.
- Your special child may just be starting to scribble or just beginning to learn how to hold a pencil, but the more choices he has, the more chances of getting him excited to do his part in learning how to write.
- If possible, buy the big grip pencils and crayons or markers.
Here are some choices. Click on the image to see the price.
- You can also buy some additives that will be useful for your special child such as these pencil grips for perfect grip for him to be inspired to write or scribble as much as he can.
- These are useful even if the pencil is small.
Click the image to see the price ( pencil grips and erasers )
- Your child's teacher or school might have these items provided, but it is still best to buy so your child will have something to use at home for his homework or just for practice.
7. Notebooks
- Buy those with beautiful covers that your child with special needs would love to open time and again. Designs that would let him smile and giggle and get him inspired to write down because his favorite animal or cartoon character is in the cover.
- Those with lines are the most essential ones so your child will learn how to write with proper alignment. If possible choose notebooks with three lines, so he will be guided how to write big and small letters properly.
- These colorful notebooks will delight your special kids.
Click the image to see the price.
8. School shoes ( and socks )
- Find shoes that are most comfortable on his feet. You would not want your kid to be coming home limping with sore ankles because his shoes is too tight that he develops a blister after a day's wear.
- They should just be the right size so your child can run or walk without difficulty while playing in the playground or doing tag with his friends and classmates.
- Socks that will allow his feet to breathe properly even in winter are a must. Buy socks that he can wear depending on the weather outside.
Click the image to see the price for some choices of girls' and boys' sneakers/ shoes.
9. Sweaters/ Pull overs
- Always let your child wear a sweater or a pull over on top of his shirt because it will usually be cold outside once school starts or put it in his bag if it is warm, so he can wear it if the weather changes.
- This is really important if your special one still cannot express his feelings.
- Again, sweaters with awesome designs will become a favorite of your kid. Also match the color of his sneakers with his sweater.
Click the image to see the price of the awesome sweater your special one will love to wear on the first day of school.
Click the image above to see more choices
10. Clothes and accessories
- If there is no uniform in the school that your child goes to, you may need to buy a few set of clothes especially those that he can wear and show off on the first day or week of school.
- He will always be proud showing off to his teacher and classmates a blouse or shirt with his all-time favorite cartoon character or a shirt which is his favorite color.
Click the image to see the price.
Click here for more choices of clothes for your child with special needs
- Your little girl's hair will be pretty either tied or with an awesome bow.
Click the image to see the price.
- A cute beannie hat ( and mitts ) for your little boy or girl that can match his or her backpack and shirt will be useful to keep his or her head safe from some cold or draft at the start of fall.
Click the image to see the price.
11. Calming toy or pillow
- Let him bring to school his favorite toy or pillow for calming effect especially if it is his first time to attend school. This will really be helpful to allay his fears and anxiety.
- You can allow him to bring it to school on the first day or week or the whole school year whichever he prefers.
- Your special child will be more focused with his school work if he has these handy.
If you are planning to buy, read some suggestions here.
Click the image to see the price of the calming pillows
Are you ready for school?
There you go, my dear parents, have you looked into the list of school essentials that your little one needs for his first day of school? Did I forget anything? Hope not.
Anyway, most of the time, kids want to show off to their classmates or teachers their new backpacks, new clothes, new pencil case, etc, so I suggest buy him something new , even though some are recycled from last year or the previous years or maybe hand me downs from older siblings or cousins.
I remember when my son was in the elementary, even though we just buy his schoolbag from the thrift store, he was so excited to show off his "new" backpack to his friends and he was proud to show off how many pockets it contains, the awesome design, etc.
I guess even our special kids would love to show off their stuff to his teachers and classmates, so as parents, let us try to be aware that this is something that our kids get excited about school.
We don't want him to hate his school bag or lunch bag that would ruin his enthusiasm to go to school everyday.
There's this excitement or some fears on the first day of school that " something new, " especially if it's his favorite toy, marker, shoes, top, or bag and if his classmate or friend also likes it, it will be a big factor for your special child to have a reason each day to get excited to come back to school everyday.
Let the start of school be something that your special one will look forward to with an AWESOME school essential.
Look at this back to school checklist again so you won't forget anything.
Happy shopping!
What is your special child's favorite cartoon character that he wants for his backpack? Have you bought or prepared all the essentials for his school this year?
As parents, are you excited that your special one is up to another school year of learning and discovering new things?

When you're facing an unexpected pregnancy and thinking about adoption for your baby, you might have a lot of questions. One of your questions might be "what are the reasons why women choose adoption for their baby?"
Making an adoption plan is a personal decision, one which every woman needs to make on her own. The fact is that women choose adoption out of love for their baby. By making an open adoption plan, they're placing their child's needs and interests before their own.
Today, we're sharing 5 of the most common reasons why women choose open adoption:
1. Power over their adoption plan
Today, birth parents have a lot of control in creating and planning for their child's adoption. They're able to look at as many adoption profiles as they'd like and select the perfect adoptive parents for their baby. Also, birth parents can talk with the adoptive couple of their choosing, to get to know them better.
2. Not ready to become a parent
There's no doubt about it: having a child will change your life forever. Some women aren't prepared to become a parent, so they explore other choices.
3. Wants to give her child more opportunities
If she's struggling to make ends meet or is in an unstable relationship, a woman might conclude that this isn't the right time to bring a child into her life.
By making an open adoption plan, she can place her baby into a safe and stable home, with loving adoptive parents who are ready and equipped to parent her baby.
4. Desire for a two-parent family
Lots of women choose adoption because they want their child to grow up with two parents. Particularly if they're no longer in a relationship with their baby's father, a two-parent adoptive family is what they're looking for. Through modern adoption, a birth mother can provide her child with the type of future she desires.
5. Wants to continue having a relationship with her child
It used to be that adoption meant goodbye forever for birth parents, and they never heard about their child again after signing adoption papers. Today's adoptions happen much differently. We recognize that children need to know where they came from and who they are. By choosing open adoption, a birth mother can stay in her child's life. The adoptive family of her choosing sends updates through emails, letters, photos, and social media posts. And, there's also the option for visits once or twice a year!
While each woman will have her own reasons for choosing adoption, it all comes down to what's best for your child. Before you make a decision, we encourage you to learn all you can about adoption. We can help you do that; just call Lifetime at 1-800-923-6784.
Lifetime can help you obtain free, third-party counseling and connect you with a peer counselor too. A peer counselor is a woman who's made an adoption plan already, so she knows where you're at. By chatting with her, you can make an informed decision about adoption.

For the third time in as many years, the SDSSAA Tennis Championships crowned brand new champions in both boys and girls singles play. This time around, however, there is hope for longevity.
Only in grade nine, Lo-Ellen sensation Andrew Varghese cruised through the boys draw, easily ousting Sebastien Bouchard of Collège Notre-Dame in the final. While his older brother, Akshay, would claim just one title, that in 2011, Andrew is hopeful that this is but the beginning of his legacy.
"I am beating my brother consistently now," he replied, when talk of the sibling rivalry surfaced. "I've played a lot with (coach) Paul (Robert) and my other teachers, so I've had a lot more time to develop my spin and shots and serves."
"My ground strokes are a lot more consistent now. I can easily pick the corner and hit a hard shot there." Despite his youth, Varghese has already targeted pretty lofty goals.
"I never underestimate anyone, but I want to win NOSSA too and do well at OFSAA, maybe a top eight finish," he said. If the crowning of Varghese was never in doubt, the boys mixed doubles final, by contrast, was prone to wild fluctutations.
With the Lo-Ellen tandem of William McCormick and Jeffrey Dodds advancing undefeated, their counterparts from Lockerby would need to win back to back matches to claim gold. The Vikings pairing of Jack Wisniewski and Emmett Taillefer looked well on their way to doing just that, blasting the Knights duo 10-2 in the first encounter.
McCormick and Dodds took that loss to heart, it seemed, jumping all over the Vikes in match two, and bolting to a 9-2 lead. Cue the comeback, as Wisniewski and Taillefer win five straight sets, narrowing the gap to 9-7, before eventually falling to the Knights.
"We had two games to play, they had to beat us twice," explained McCormick. "Once we got down (in first game), we focused on trying to find ways to try and beat them. They are obviously a fantastic team."
And while that worked well through much of the second match, McCormick knew better than to count them out. "It's just resiliency," he noted. "They had beaten us once before, by such a crushing amount. They started taking things a little slower, and now you just focus on playing some good tennis."
And though he is no stranger to the court, the grade 10 student at Lo-Ellen was quick to deflect the praise to Dodds, his partner who is a regular at the Sudbury Indoor Tennis Center.
"Jeff is a fantastic tennis player, far better than me," suggested McCormick. "I had to find my strengths and then stay within those. For me, as funny as this may sound, it's just about not messing up. It's keeping the rally going until he (Dodds) can get one of his excellent forehands or backhands off."
The girls singles final followed a similar path to boys doubles, as Chloe Madore-Bouffard of Macdonald-Cartier forced a rematch with a 10-2 win over Connie Zeng of Lo-Ellen, only to see the tables turned a short while later, as Zeng claims first place thanks to a 10-8 triumph.
The girls doubles bragging rights remained at CND for a third straight year as Kaitlyn Falvo and Mireille Kingsley upended Logan Waltenbury and Laurelle Gillard of Lo-Ellen 10-6.
And finally, in mixed doubles play, a marathon was forced when Alex Frappier and Alyssa Fleury of Horizon survived a tie-breaker, beating Bronwyn Mantle and Ben Ashley of Lo-Ellen 11-9 as everything else was wrapping up.
Game two would see the Knights bounce back to the tune of a 10-4 win, allowing Mantle and Ashley to claim gold. Lo-Ellen also snapped a four year run by the Collège Notre-Dame Alouettes in terms of the overall team aggregate, as coach Richard Breault and company walked away with the banner.
All of the finalists in all five categories are back in action next week, as the NOSSA tennis championships return to Sudbury, allowing SDSSAA two entries per division.

More than just a citizen you're a defender
and valuable member of the very glue
that holds our country together.
We appreciate your sacrifice for our freedom.

Let us remember all the sacrifices made our military so that we could have a safer life. No amount of appreciation will be sufficient enough to honor them. Let us just pray for them and their families.

HDC: Gables Inn proposal requires 3D model
The anticipated unveiling of plans to develop the Gables Inn property on Dodge Street was put on hold after the Chair of the Historic District Commission asked for a three-dimensional model of the proposal.
A team of architects, engaged by Lark Hotels, were prepared to unveil plans on paper for the project on Tuesday night, before Chair Bill Penn expressed his "reservations about the application."
"This is a significant project in the historic district, and for us to give a preliminary evaluation for siting and massing we should have a three-dimensional model showing the new construction, and showing the adjacent buildings," Penn said.
"The single plane drawing, which you're presenting, does not do that," said Penn. "It does not give us, or the community, an opportunity to really get a view of what the massing and the siting will look like."
Glenn Gardiner, from the Newport-based Northeast Collaborative Architects, asked Penn if he was requesting "a physical model, or a computer model?"
"A physical model," said Penn. "We have seen computer renderings in the past that were misleading. We need to see how it's going to fit within that property, and how it's going to fit within the adjacent properties."
Penn told The Times after the meeting that, "The three-dimensional model is used for major, new, and complex projects in the historic district. It gives us perspective of massing and siting from many directions, as well as impacts on surrounding buildings. We have requested three-dimensional models in the past."
The Grove, as the project involving the Gables Inn property is being called, is part of Lark Hotels' development of its Block Island Beach House resort complex, which includes renovating the Surf Hotel. The Grove project entails refurbishing the Gables Inn, installing a pool with Ipe hardwood decking, creating two rental units in an existing barn, constructing a single cottage, a duplex cottage, and staff housing, containing six-bedrooms, and men and women's bathroom facilities in an attached relocated barn.
During the meeting, Gardiner asked Penn if he could address the concerns regarding renovations of the Surf Hotel that were discussed at the HDC's Feb. 28 meeting. He also asked if his team could "present the site plan" for the Grove project.
Penn said that since the Surf Hotel application was not listed on Tuesday's agenda that it could not be discussed. "We could schedule a special meeting, but we can't deal with that item tonight," he said. "Sorry about that."
As for the architects presenting the Grove's site plan, Penn reiterated his request for a three-dimensional model. "I don't see how we can make a decision on siting and massing without a physical model. I can't visualize how this development, from Dodge Street to almost Chapel Street, is going to look like compared to anything else in that location."
The architects tried to present the project as much as they could, touching on the high quality of the Ipe hardwood decking that would be installed around the pool; where the buildings and a long driveway would be located on the property; and that Connecticut Valley Modular Homes, would construct the buildings.
The commission warned that the project would require proper drainage and storm-water runoff measures, as well as accommodating a high water table in the property's vicinity. Vice Chair Martha Ball said Building Official Marc Tillson was a "great resource," to which Gardiner said the architects intend on consulting with him.
The architects informed the commission that they will be meeting with the New Shoreham Town Council on April 3. They then began to detail aspects of the project, before Penn cut the discussion short. "I feel very strongly that we need to see a three-dimensional model," he said.
The HDC deferred action on the item until its next meeting, which is scheduled for Monday, April 22 at 7 p.m.
Response from Lark Hotels CEO
Rob Blood, CEO of Lark Hotels, said that he and the developers "were a little surprised" by the HDC's request, "but it's not a big deal. We'll have a model done in two to three weeks. It's something that we were planning on doing as a marketing tool anyway. The key here, as explained by our landscape architect, Mark Butler, is that only a tiny fraction of this area will be able to be seen from the street. I would also say that part of the reason I love Block Island is the historic nature of the architecture, so our goal is to work with the HDC to make sure what we are doing is appropriate and in keeping with the character of the town. We think it is."
"We think that the finished poolside area will be spectacular and while it may seem ambitious, our understanding is that what we are asking for with the five cottages and the pool is allowed by current zoning," noted Blood. "We're more than happy to go through the process and look forward to continuing to work with the various boards and officials in town. We are committed to creating an in-town resort that will be respectful of the island, as well as appealing to visitors."
Blood said that this part of the Block Island Beach House development "is focused on the poolside cottages, and working through HDC approvals. These are one bedroom cottages with a downstairs living room, so they are larger than the rooms at the Surf and Gables. Our goal with the development is to create a resort that has many different styles of accommodation, so that we can host many generations of travelers."

BCL pushes to extend mine`s life
source: Mmegi
SELIBE-PHIKWE: The General Manager of BCL Mine, Montwedi Mphathi, says they are pushing ahead with plans to diversify the mine and extend its life to 2020.
Speaking at the launch of the mine's new corporate values held at Phokoje Bush Lodge last Friday, Mphathi said BCL has developed a roadmap towards becoming a globally credible diversified base metal and related products' development, services and supply business.
Through the roadmap, the mine will increase ore resources and reserves. The key objective is to find new resources to enable the life of the mine to be extended to at least 2020.

Nicaragua Mierisch Finca La Huella Yellow Pacamara Honey
|Roaster Location:
|Yilan, Taiwan
|Coffee Origin:
|Matagalpa growing region, Nicaragua
|Roast Level:
|Est. Price:
|$25.00/8 ounces
|Review Date:
|November 2018
|Acidity /Structure :
Blind Assessment: Aromatically subtle, sweetly tart. Pie cherry, roasted cacao nib, pistachio, thyme, freesia-like flowers in aroma and cup. Sweetly tart structure with juicy, vibrant acidity; viscous, syrupy acidity. The finish consolidates to notes of cocoa-toned pie cherry and freesia.
Notes: This coffee tied for the third-highest rating in a cupping of coffees from big-bean varieties for Coffee Review's November 2018 tasting report. Produced by Jose Antonio Cruz of La Huella farm entirely of the Yellow Pacamara variety of Arabica. The Pacamara is a big-beaned hybrid of the Bourbon-related Pacas and the huge-beaned Maragogipe, a mutant of the ancient Typica variety. Processed by the honey method, which means that the outer skin is removed as it is in the wet or "washed" process, but at least some of the sticky fruit residue is allowed to dry on the bean and later removed by machine along with the parchment skin. Small Eyes Café is a small, family-owned coffee shop in Yilan, Taiwan, specializing in artisanally roasted specialty coffee and homemade desserts. Visit https://www.facebook.com/Smalleyescafe for more information.
The Bottom Line : An intriguing and original Pacamara cup with pretty hints of sweet herb alongside bright fruit notes.

Seasons when flowers start producing pollen tend to be the time when allergy symptoms are the worst. Whether it's hayfever, or year round allergies you suffer with here are some natural remedies for allergies and their symptoms.
Although it sounds pretty ironic considering plants are causing the symptoms, plants can be used as a cure too!
What are allergic reactions?
Allergies are caused by the immune system over-reacting to foreign substances or sensitivity to pollen and fungal spores. These reactions cause itchy nose, throat, eyes, watering eyes, sneezing, a runny nose, congestion and even swelling in severe cases.
How to beat allergies
When your body is fighting to keep you healthy you have to help it as much as possible. Even if allergies aren't an actual illness they can make you feel down, lack energy, and feel generally unwell and miserable.
Start beating allergies by checking in with your routine and taking care of yourself. Make sure you are getting plenty of restful sleep, drinking lots of water and take your vitamins. As well as eating lots of healthy foods like fruit and vegetables.
You need to help boost your immune system in any way you can!
There are also plant based and natural remedies you can take to prevent allergies and alleviate your symptoms
Natural remedies for allergies & hayfever
Bee products
Take bee pollen and a spoonful of local honey once a day.
Locally sourced honey naturally contains the pollen that you are being exposed to. Taking honey allows your body to build up a natural immunity to pollens (rather like having a flu jab).
Bee pollen is anti-inflammatory as well as anti-fungal, anti-vital and basically magical. You can sprinkle on breakfasts or add a spoonful to your smoothie each day to help your immune system, and relieve that heavy stuffy congested feeling in your head and sinuses.
Apple cider vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is definitely an acquired taste, but one with many benefits. You may have already heard of it as an aid for digestion and weight loss, but it is also good for allergy relief. Taken daily it helps to reduce the bodies mucus production and cleanse your lymphatic system. The lymphatic system deals with fighting bacteria and infections and is therefore vital to your immune system health.
Mix a spoonful of cider vinegar with a glass of water and take once a day once your allergies start to develop.
Eyebright has been used for centuries to treat eye problems. It is naturally rich in tannins which work to tighten mucus membranes to prevent further irritation , as well as reducing the amount of mucus you produce. It also works with your liver to reduce excess toxins.
You can use a tincture of eyebright to relieve itchy watery eyes (as well as eye infections!). To treat eyes you need to put a few drops into your eye(s), or use as an eyewash three times a day.
For itchy throats, catarrh, mucus and runny noses you need to swallow a tincture of eyebright mixed with a little water twice a day.
Quercetin is a natural bioflavonoid. It can be found in lots of food (albeit in small quantities), and is a powerful antioxidant. Quercetin is an anti-inflammatory and has antihistamine effects on the whole body, helping to reduce allergy symptoms.
Although found naturally in foods such as broccoli and citrus, it would be difficult to consume the amounts needed this way. You can, however, take quercetin in supplement form as a replacement to an antihistamine tablet.
Start taking tablets about a month or so before your allergy season would usually begin (if possible) for the best results.
Elderflower is not only high in vitamin C, but the flowers can be used as a tonic for reducing mucus in the membranes of the nose and sinuses.
Make a tincture of the flowers to use cold for bathing irritated and itchy eyes, or you can mix with a glass of water and drink daily to help relieve blocked noses and reduce mucus.
Nettle leaf
You probably think of nettles as pesky weeds to avoid, but they are actually highly nutritious and have a multitude of properties. They are high in vitamins A & C, iron, magnesium, calcium, zinc, potassium and chromium to name a few!
Nettles are another powerful anti-allergenic and natural antihistamine. Nettles grow everywhere throughout spring and summer, so you can easily pick them to make tinctures ,teas and even nettle soups.
Use tinctures of nettle by taking one teaspoon mixed in a little water or juice 1-3 times a day, depending on the severity of your symptoms.
You can drink teas too, as and when you need. You can either make the tea yourself using the dried leaves, or can easily be purchased.
Alternatively you can take a nettle capsule (which you can easily find at your local health foods store).
Essential oils
Essential oils cannot cure allergies as such. But you can use them to help alleviate your symptoms and discomfort.
Eucalyptus and peppermint oils are both good for clearing blocked noses and sinuses and helping you to breathe more easily.
Lavender oil is both relaxing and a natural antihistamine. You can use it topically to relieve symptoms, or use in a diffuser which will help clear your nose and any breathing problems in your chest & airways.
To relieve those feelings of being unwell, run down and achy rub a combination of lavender, frankincense and lemon onto the back of the neck. This is a personal combination of oils I like to use. You can do this a couple of times a day to alleviate discomfort. This little mixture will also help you feel soothed and relaxed.
I hope these tips are helpful and will help you get out and enjoying summer a bit more this year. Make the most of all the sunshine we seem to be getting!

Chinese petroleum and other liquids
Chinese petroleum and other liquids
China holds 24.6 billion bbls of proved oil reserves.
China's total petroleum and other production, the fourth largest in the world, has risen approximately 50% over the past 20 years.
Production growth has not kept pace with demand growth.
Last year China produced nearly 4.6 million bpd of petroleum and other liquids.
EIA forecasts that China's oil production will increase slightly to higher than 4.6 million bpd by the end of 2016.
The country accounted for more than one third of global oil demand growth in 2014.
China consumed 10.7 million bpd of oil in 2014.
EIA forecasts that China's oil consumption will continue growing through 2016 at a moderate pace to 11.3 million bpd.
It is also forecast that China's oil consumption will exceed that of the US by 2034.
Diesel is a key driver of China's oil products demand.
Diesel demand did decline on an absolute level in 2014 for the first time in 20 years.
Gasoline, the second largest consumed petroleum fuel is still experiencing robust demand growth.
LPG continues to experience some growth from the petrochemical industry but fuel oil demand has weakened considerably.
Sector organisation
The Chinese government's energy policies are dominated by the country's growing demand for oil and its reliance on oil imports.
The government launched the National Energy Administration (NEA) in 2008 to act as the key energy regulator.
China's national oil companies (NOCs) wield a significant amount of influence in China's oil sector.
The government launched a fuel tax and reform of the domestic product pricing mechanism in 2009 in an effort to tie retail oil product prices more closely to international crude oil markets.
Overseas activity
Since 2008, the NOCs have purchased assets in the Middle East, North America, Latin America, Africa and Asia and invested approximately US$73 billion.
By the end of 2013, Chinese NOCs had secured bilateral oil for loan deals with several countries, amounting to approximately US$150 billion.
Crude imports
Oil imports have increased dramatically over the past decade, reaching record highs in 2014.
China has made great efforts to diversify the sources of its oil imports.
Total net oil imports, driven primarily by crude oil imports, now outweigh domestic supply.
The current Five Year Plan targets oil imports reaching no more than 61% of its demand by the end of this year.
The Middle East is the largest source of China's crude oil imports.
China has steadily expanded its oil refining capacity to meet its strong demand growth and to process a wider range of crude oil types.
The country now ranks behind only the US and the EU in the amount of refining capacity.
This year, installed crude refining capacity hit 14.2 million bpd.
Refinery utilisation rates have declined to less than 75% in the past year.
The refining sector has undergone modernisation and consolidation in recent years, shutting down dozens of teapot refineries.
Domestic price regulations for petroleum products resulted in revenue losses for Chinese refineries when international oil prices were high.
China became a net diesel fuel exporter in mid 2012.
Sinopec and CNPC/PetroChina are the two dominant players in China's oil refining sector.
SPR and storage
The country is in the process of developing significant storage capacity to buffer geopolitical issues involving global oil supply.
The SPR involves three phases and calls for China to construct facilities that can hold 500 million bbls of crude by 2020.
At the beginning of last year, China held approximately 350 million bbls of commercial crude oil storage capacity.

What's the best way to deal with the after-school blues?
We are now a few weeks into the new school term and half term is looming on the horizon. So how's everyone getting on?
One thing we're sure you've discovered fairly quickly as a new school mum or dad is the after-school blues. It's the slump period after school finishes where children are likely to be exhausted or full of energy, grumpy or excited and above all, tired, emotional and incredibly hungry.
As Rachel from Make a Long Story Short wrote in her blog post Dear boy, you can be unpretty here, in the first few weeks of starting school children are likely to behave like 'screechy rage demons' at home and use you as the dumping ground for all the emotions they've kept in check at school.
So how can you can sure you minimise the after-school blues and help ease the quick transition between school and home?
We're rounding up our school month this week (make sure you catch up on posts about the starting school roller coaster and tips for picking a secondary school) so here's some tips to have a happy after-school period
Let them eat, lots: Take our word for it, children are likely to be ravenous after school, even if they've wolfed down their snack, lunch and pudding. If your journey home is longer than a couple of minutes make sure you take something for them to munch on and have dinner prepared or lots of snacks for when they get back. Alice from More than Toast's tip is to fill her children with healthy carrot sticks and cucumber as they are so hungry they will eat anything.
Have some downtime: They are likely to be exhausted after school finishes, even if they're used to the longer day of nursery. Let them do nothing; this is where a little session of CBeebies can be good for the soul (both yours and theirs).
Get into a routine: Make sure you have a familiar routine for when you get home - uniform off, shoes in the same place, check the book bag, snack and relax - whatever works for you (read more of our school organisation tips too).
Don't pack too much into the evening: Although it can be tempting to sign them up for every after-school club going, remember they are still little. 'My tip would be for the first year (at least) don't get pushed into signing them up for after school activities...I found my youngest was falling asleep when she got back from school she was so tired' says Amanda from Ana Mum Diary. The same goes for play dates; remember there's always the weekend.
Let them burn off steam: Some children might have a lot of pent-up energy after a day of concentrating and listening, so it might be a good idea to let them burn it off. 'If you can walk home then do it, or go to the park for a quick run-around' says Molly from Mother's Always Right. 'I've always found my little one is hugely hyper after school and needs to burn off the excess energy.'
Don't bombard them with questions about their day: It's a well-recognised phenomenon that children are likely to tell you nothing about their day, as Gill from A Baby on Board wrote in her post on the secrets of the school day. Mel from Mel Wiggins says 'don't push for conversation on the way home and be asking all about their day. They are WRECKED. Give them time to come around and they'll tell you on their own accord!' We also love this post from alternative questions to ask them instead of 'how was your day?' Why not give it a go?
Does the post-school slump sound familiar? We'd love to hear your tips! Make sure you also read our post on what NOT to worry about school

- RIGHT UP OUR STREET, THIS... The Imaginary Soundtrack to a Brazilian Western Movie.
One of the greatest accordionists in Northeast Brazil, Reginaldo Alves Ferreira, better known as Camarao (Shrimp) or Maestro Camarao, was born in Fazenda Velha, Brejo da Madre de Deus, Pernambuco, on 23 June 1940. He learned to play accordion by watching the movements of his father, the accordionist Antonio Neto, who took him to parties where he played. After that, according to him, he perfected his skills by listening to Luiz Gonzaga and studying the method of Mario Mascarenhas. He played at the region's fairs, raffles and patron festivals. He developed his artistic career in the city of Caruaru. The title of 'Maestro'is not from his education, but rather given to him by broadcasters. At the age of 18, he met Luiz Gonzaga, whom he considers his master despite not forgetting his father's teachings. He was a great friend and partner of the 'rei do baiao'('King of Bai o'- Luiz Gonzaga's nickname), with whom he participated in 28 recordings.

It looks like, to me, that you're whipping this painting into shape, in spite of the small problems.

Despite the challenge of using new materials that seem to have a life of their own, this lovely work coming on beautifully. Detail to the teapot sublime. Can't wait to see how it progresses.

Deb, for what it is worth, I have adopted ALL of the Silver Black Velvet brushes as my favorites. Every size and shape comes to a perfect point, every time. Their bellies hold so much water and paint, also. Even the flat brush always come to a perfect chisel point. I am in love with them myself! This is coming along beautifully, but what else could I expect?!

Thanks so much Joan!
Susan - thanks for telling me that - I had purchased one (1"flat) in Chicago at a trade show from Karen Vernon and liked it, then ordered a few more - it's always good to find something you like (or even dislike!) and pass on the knowledge.

What+Seen/ Yoga Pedagogy 10: General Ideas in a Yoga Class
Starting to teach is undoubtedly a challenge. We can't channel a yoga class because it's an art and therefore difficult and complex. But we can't turn it into a complicated cabal either. From a few minimums we develop a way of transmitting that cannot be encoded in a mere formula. Writes Julian Peragón (Arjuna).
Input, we must distinguish between technical and transmission. With regard to the technique, we should master a few (but not too many) that are affordable and effective. To put an image, yoga is not the circus "the more complicated best". In fact 98% of students need a simple "technology" that do not damage.
By putting an example gastronomic, the best food is that that with the minimum expenditure energy for its digestion us provides of a greater amount of nutrients and of energy. Also in yoga, often "less is more". And by follow with them examples, when we buy a washer new think in all them benefits that can have, but at the time of the truth, as I passes to me, use a pair of programs of them 30 that has.
Let's see some yoga postures technology. Dvipada Pitham, the table of two legs, is relatively easy in its execution, but an analysis more detailed us makes understand that power the musculature of them legs, facilitates the return venous, drains them organs abdominal, stretches the diaphragm, stretches all the musculature back-cervical, between others elements. On the other hand, positions as Sirsasana or Bhujangasana require an advanced domain not to damage us in the cervical or lumbar area. So we have very well weigh the positions that we choose to know their risks and benefits.
Now well, in the transmission of the yoga might be more relevant our attitude that our domain technical. To the student it comes with safety our delivery, our availability, our respect. Our commitment with the yoga and our honesty These are elements that gradually emerge over time once the fireworks of seduction are exhausted. From there the need of holding our practice with passion.
Now it's dip into the pedagogy for transmit this passion. First we need to know our students, meet their demands, needs, your map of tensions. That healthy curiosity for what happens to them builds confidence and gives security. The best way is to establish interviews personal especially at the beginning and as much as when suspect difficulties in monitoring classes. And in addition to the collection of information must refine our degree of observation. In this way we can better identify practice within a group.
One way to identify the practice of yoga is the media regulators have in the class. Blankets, pads, straps, blocks, chairs, sticks or the same wall will serve as elements of support or intensification. Also work in pairs can fulfill this function of self-regulation.
And, since we are talking about the room of yoga, we must take care of all the details: natural light if possible, ventilation, minimum noise, order and cleaning, symbolic Centre, etc.
Suggestions to guide the class
We are often led by the moment and improvisation, and it is true that listening and flexibility are important to take into account, but We must mark a direction to our classes. This is achieved with objectives simple that we help to live better: flexible them hips, win balance, remove tension to the box thoracic, relax it Strip eye, tone abdominal, etc, etc, objectives that the great majority of our students with security need. And this fan of objectives simple there is that stringing them in a thread that you of sense, through a certain progression throughout the school year. Smart progression, without haste but without pause.
To cover this progression we must have the courage to repeat classes with some variation. We have fear that our students get bored (and is leaving as consequence), of such way that propose always things new, that will surprise, that seduce. And thus it is very difficult to move forward because no overlooking what is teaching.
With regard to the moment of directing the session is important not put is of example, be rigorous with guidelines that them can guide to three levels. Technical guidelines for implementation of the posture, recognition and experience guidelines and guidelines, finally, in connection with the depth of our being.
It is important to correct not like the one in possession of the truth, but as one who invites you to check a particular position.
As the musician has a structure which are bars them, we have a structure stable that can not forget: listening, warming, progression, core, compensation, preparation for the internalization and the same assimilation in the form of relaxation, breathing or meditation exercise. But, let us not forget, since this solid structure we can make "music", we propose each posture so to compensate the former or to strengthen it, that leads to a more calm or a greater force.
From time to time, at the end of a session, it leaves some room to make a verbalization. Insurance that arise comentarios interesting to assess the follow-up to our students. From those comments can refer to the philosophy of yoga which is linked to the same life, since yoga is an art of living. Not there is that fear him to the word spirituality.
Not forgetting the aim main
Do not you forget of carry a notebook where point them series and the suggestions that go out, of this way is more easy carry a follow-up. And not be wrong, from time to time, monitor your lessons with your teacher or with any colleague veteran, since the same routine makes it difficult for us to see our own mistakes.
In this sense, be aware of the traps that typically use those teachers It helps us to avoid them. Especially put as example, not practicing, improvising as usual, not correct, do not observe, wanting to have all the answers, the desire to like, make therapist or become too esoteric, among many others.
On the other hand We can not forget that yoga is not a sweet gymnastics and even if our students come to do yoga for the back or stress, in the background there is an existential discomfort that yoga can pick up since, in reality the yoga is a response to the suffering. Yoga means availability to that suffering, take it home and without having to clear it, but open, looking at him in the face without running out. That is the greatness of our profession.
Julian Peragón (Arjuna), Trainer of teachers, directs the Yoga synthesis school in Barcelona.

Northbridge Brewing Company by Beerland
With Perth's transforming food scene and not to mention the beer craft scene a little thought goes into where to take Dad for his birthday these days, with the aim of showing him new places around town, last year it was the Alpengaudi evening at The Rhein Donau Club in Myaree and this year our family decided to try the Northbridge Brewing Company. The establishment serves as a brewery, bar and restaurant overlooking the free outdoor cinema of Northbridge Piazza.
I was a little apprehensive about not having a booking with our party of 7 (no bookings taken) however arriving before the lunch menu opened was a wise idea, we scored the last long bench table on the ground floor.
If you ever jogged, sprinted or walked around the tracks at Perry Lakes Stadium or cheered from the grandstands you will appreciate the fact that the bricks and feature lighting was recycled from the Perry Lakes site and history buffs should know that a large wooden beam hanging over the bar was sourced from the historic Art Deco Ford Factory in North Fremantle.
Our spot was well, just awesome, we were undercover but in the alfresco area enjoying the superb West Australian weather and overlooking the green lawned Northbridge Piazza. The atmosphere grew and by 1pm the brewery was abuzz with chatter and laughs throughout. Musicians played in the piazza all afternoon long, a couple of metres from our table.
The brewery produces four varieties of beer onsite – Beerland Lager, Beerland Pale Ale, Beerland Wheat and Beerland Mild. The water used in the beer undergoes a purification process ensuring the end product is a quality product. In the entrance there are two beer vats and the brewery has the ability to produce 150,000L of beer each year. Now that is a lot of beer! There are 3 menus available during the course of the day – breakfast (last order at 10.30am), lunch (12:00pm to 2.30pm) and dinner (6:00 pm to 9.30pm) and an all day snacks (but served from 11am).
The first matter of importance was ordering our drinks from the bar. DK went with a pint of Beerland Pale Ale.

Apart from beer there is a variety of cocktails and wines available. I went with a glass of Dunes and Greene Brut NV from the Sparkling and Champagne menu.

I particularly like the smaller portion meal items under the burger and sandwiches section of the menu, if you are having a couple of drinks its nice to be able to have a tasty snack other than chips. Also, for $16.00 you could choose 2 different items for a lunch sitting – perhaps a Bratwurst mini dog and an Angus brewery burger slider?
Knowing of a work dinner engagement I was attending later in the evening, I ordered a little hob hoagies. The little hob hoagies consisted of pulled pork, lots of BBQ sauce and a slaw salad. It was delicious and certainly contained a lot of sauce inside.

Priced at $16.00, the full sized Angus brewery burger with a small side of chips is probably one of the cheaper burgers you'll find around town. The Angus beef patty had a tantalising flame grilled flavour and combined with melted cheese, mustard, pickles, tomato and lettuce, it was all pretty satisfying. Some might find the size of chips a little small but the meal combined was filling.

The fillet steak sandwich was the clear favourite of the group with three orders from our table. Often said by the folks, the steak sandwich is the original burger and it was made up of one thick beef fillet steak sandwiched between two slices of white toasted bread, flavoured with aioli and BBQ sauce. A side of chips was also included with the meal.

The Asian noodle salad served with prawns (an addition request for $4.00), noodle, shredded carrot and cabbage is a healthier option on the menu. It is served cold and finished with a sesame and lime dressing.

On a Sunday the brewery certainly offers a family friendly environment and it worked out to be a great choice for Dad's Birthday celebrations through a combination of good food and drinks, spacious long bench tables, being able to place separate orders and the sticker pack that was given to our 2 year old niece, enabling us to extend our lunch that little bit longer before she grew bored.
Service for the most part was good. We ordered our meals and drinks at the bar, food was delivered to the tables. We did encounter some unexpected and certainly uncalled for attitude from one lady but we soon forgot about it experiencing better service from the other members circulating the floor. One burger meal arrived first and the other meals arrived 25 minutes later along with an extra burger meal. Perplexed the gentleman retreated to the kitchen and in the meantime we worked out the first burger was meant for the table next to us (attitude lady gave it to us instead of the next table). As a new establishment there are obviously some hiccups that I could view as easily resolvable. I would not rule out paying the Northbridge Brewing Company another visit in fact we will most likely return to try out the breakfast menu in a couple months.
The Northbridge Brewing Company is a fantastic addition to Northbridge. The eight metre high screen in the piazza plays entertainment all day long, Time Zone Games is across the road, San Churros (for dessert and coffee) and a really great coffee and cake place, a five minute walk away is The Little Bird. Truth betold Mum and Dad, have not been to Northbridge in 15 years! They couldn't believe the transformation of the piazza and its surrounding area.
