Just think of learned helplessness as always having your thumb on a reset button while playing some video game. Every time you make a mistake, you hit that button and start over. Some Scholars, Potter in particular, argue that television is to be blamed for the lack of persistence people demonstrate in whatever they pursue in life. He continues to state that viewers learn to be helpless through the act of watching TV and not from watching particular shows or programming. He stresses how we watch television changes how we react to failure. As Potter puts it, "television causes a decrease in persistence." Media techs are not really helpful in developing the ability to persist. They fail to help us learn the ability to cope and learn from failures. Since real life doesn't have a reset button, Potter feels that we need to learn how to fight for what we want, rather than pressing reset. We learn through trial and error, yet with our finger on the reset button, we don't allow ourselves to fail. Hence, we get stuck in one place and never really get ahead. We can pause; rewind, and replay live TV. In some instances, we can even start over. This technology also applies to gaming. Sometimes we start over so many times that we never finish a game successfully. Players go as far as buying or downloading codes so that they can skip stages they don't want to bother with.
However logical, can we really blame the reset button for our impatience? If so, how far can we go with the blame?
Admittedly, I think that learned helplessness is a cool concept. We usually associate learning with purposeful means; however, Potter says that this particular type of learning is done subconsciously. Every time we start over without finishing first, we tend to become less persistent or impatient. While there may be some validity to that argument, it is difficult to see how the little reset button is eroding principles that are so fundamental to human growth and evolution. Experience, as the great Aristotle stressed, is the key to knowledge. This principle is the engine that propels global societies forward. Hence, if reset is so powerful as to deprive us of values so basic to humanity, we need to pay attention to it.
I have, on many occasions, heard people say that if they could start life over, they would do many things differently. However, I'm willing to bet money that with a new beginning, these people would make the same mistakes if not worse. I firmly believe that mistakes are the essence of perfection, but that's a different argument for another time.
Sadly, I may be a victim of learned helplessness. While attempting to win consecutive games of spider solitaire, I end up never finishing a game. I hit reset whenever the game looks impossible instead of working it out, which is the point of the game. What would I do without that little button? This behavior is not indigenous to Solitaire. I often hit the start over button when I catch an interesting show towards the end. I think the end is pointless without the beginning, and I think many people would agree that there is no context in the ending alone.

The Fort Lauderdale Strikers are an American professional soccer team based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Founded in 2006, the team plays in the North American Soccer League, the second tier of the American soccer pyramid. Prior to the 2011 season the team was known as Miami FC. The NASL club is the fourth Fort Lauderdale team to share the legacy of the Strikers name, which first originated in the old North American Soccer League. The team plays its home games at Lockhart Stadium and are coached by Daryl Shore.
They have a fierce in-state rivalry with the Tampa Bay Rowdies.[1][2]
Contents |
History [edit]
As Miami FC [edit]
The Strikers are owned by Traffic Sports USA, the American branch of Traffic Group, which owns and organizes South American club tournaments such as the Copa America and Copa Sudamericana.
South Florida was most recently home to the Fort Lauderdale-based Miami Fusion of Major League Soccer. After Fusion folded in 2002, Miami FC inherited a portion of their fanbase, leaving some to see them as a semi-continuation of the Fusion.
On April 16, 2006, Miami FC played its first home game at Tropical Park Stadium. Mario "El Loco" Rodríguez, a Guatemalan national team midfielder, scored the team's first goal in the 77th minute. He was assisted by Zinho, a starter on Brazil's 1994 World Cup champion team. The lone goal was enough to defeat Jamaican champion Portmore United.
Brazilian World Cup winner Romario was signed to the club March 30, 2006. Though injuries left him unable to play in the April 16, 2006 opener, Miami FC gave the famed striker the honor of the ceremonial first kick. Romario left the club to sign a short term contract with Australian league premier team Adelaide United in Australia's premier football competition the Hyundai A-League, for a 4-game "guest" stint, and subsequently returned to Brazil to play for Vasco da Gama. He scored his 1000th career goal against Sport from Recife on May 20, 2007.
In 2007, the team held a contest through public schools in the greater Miami-Dade area for a nickname and mascot. Shia Moreno, an elementary school student won for her nickname "Blues". Daniel Townsend, a senior at Robert Morgan Educational Center won for his mascot creation "Hotshot", a flaming Sonic-the-Hedgehog-like character.
In November 2009 the Miami announced their intent to leave the USL First Division to become the co-founders of a new North American Soccer League, which would begin play in 2010. The league, which at the time had yet to be sanctioned by the United States Soccer Federation or the Canadian Soccer Association, would also comprise the Atlanta Silverbacks, Carolina Railhawks, Crystal Palace Baltimore, Minnesota Thunder, Montreal Impact, Tampa Bay Rowdies, Vancouver Whitecaps and a brand new team led by St. Louis Soccer United.[3]
After lawsuits were filed and heated press statements exchanged, the USSF declared they would sanction neither league for the coming year, and ordered both to work together on a plan to temporarily allow their teams to play a 2010 season. The interim solution was announced on January 7, 2010 with the USSF running the new USSF D-2 league comprising clubs from both USL-1 and NASL.[4]
In summer 2010, Miami FC announced its intention to 'pay homage' to the Fort Lauderdale Strikers of the NASL by incorporating 'Strikers' into the team name from 2011. They renamed themselves the Fort Lauderdale Strikers on February 17, 2011.[5]
Rebrand as Strikers [edit]
This section does not cite any references or sources. (April 2012) |
The team was rebranded as the Fort Lauderdale Strikers ahead of the 2011 North American Soccer League season. A franchise-high 6,402 fans witnessed Strikers take on FC Edmonton in the opening game of the season at Lockhart Stadium. This number was later beaten in the final match of the season, when the Strikers faced the NSC Minnesota Stars in front of 6,849 fans despite pouring rain.
The rebrand was ultimately a huge success for the organization, both on, and off the field. Head Coach Daryl Shore led the team to a fourth place regular season finish, and an appearance in the NASL Championship Series. On the other side of the organization, as a direct result of the rebrand, the Strikers saw increased attendance levels averaging around 4,000 per game, and higher levels of fan support and community involvement.
Colors and badge [edit]
The official colors of the Strikers are red, gold, charcoal gray, metallic goal and "beach sand". According to a press release issued just prior to the beginning of the 2011 season, the color palette is intended to "connecting with the heart and passion of the players and fans of the beautiful game while symbolizing the warmth of the Sunshine State and City of Fort Lauderdale."[6] The team's shirts, which feature red and gold hoops paired with black shorts, intentionally mirror those worn by the old NASL Strikers in the 1980s.
According to the same press release, the logo incorporates "a contemporary seven-pointed sun with ball signifying the golden era of the Fort Lauderdale Strikers from 1977 to 1983", has a "distinctive tie to the City of Fort Lauderdale's landmark wave wall columns of Las Olas Boulevard that bookend the memorable Strikers jersey hoops", and features a unique script and typeface.
The old Miami FC colors were tropical blue, gold and white, and its logo was a simple shield featuring a stylized soccer ball, the Miami FC wordmark, and shading in the team's color palette.
Stadium [edit]
- Tropical Park Stadium; Olympia Heights, Florida (2006–2008)
- Miami Orange Bowl; Miami, Florida (2007; 2 games)
- Lockhart Stadium; Fort Lauderdale, Florida (2009–present)
- FIU Stadium; Miami, Florida (2009; 1 game)
The Strikers play their home games at Lockhart Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Built in 1959 as an athletic facility for local high schools, the stadium was the home the original Fort Lauderdale Strikers of the original North American Soccer League, as well the now-defunct Miami Fusion of Major League Soccer. There are plans for the Strikers to build their own Soccer Specific Stadium in the Broward County area in the next few years.
During their five years in the USL, the old Miami FC played at various stadiums in the greater Miami area, including Tropical Park Stadium, Miami Orange Bowl and FIU Stadium.
Club culture [edit]
The Fort Lauderdale Strikers have strong support among young people in South Florida. The "Club of supporters" is growing in the last years, mainly in some universities of Broward County.[7]
The main cheerleaders of former "Miami FC" (Florida International University) have been chosen to represent the team since 2009, improving the Club of supporters image in Florida[8]
Rivalries [edit]
The Strikers' main rivalry is with the Tampa Bay Rowdies. The rivalry began in 1977 between the original Fort Lauderdale Strikers and the original Tampa Bay Rowdies of the North American Soccer League,[9] In recent times, the rivalry between both fans and the media has been dubbed the Florida Derby, referencing the two clubs' locations in South Florida.[10] The heart of the rivalry between the two sides exists primarily within the two clubs' supporters groups. Presently, the Fort Lauderdale Strikers are supported by the former "Miami Ultras", whom also supported the Miami Fusion F.C..[11]
Affiliated clubs [edit]
Supporters groups [edit]
- Flight 19: Based in Fort Lauderdale, they splintered from the Miami Ultras when Miami FC re-branded to the Strikers. It is named after the famous Flight 19 incident where five TBM Avenger aircraft disappeared over the Bermuda Triangle after taking off from NAS Fort Lauderdale (now Fort Lauderdale – Hollywood International Airport) in 1945.
- Miami Ultras: Established before Miami FC was in existence, they are based in Miami. They are also the official South Florida regional affiliate of Sam's Army, a nationwide supporters group for the United States national soccer teams.
Players and staff [edit]
Current roster [edit]

- USA Miguel Lopez – Director of Operations

This list of former players includes those who received international caps while playing for the team, made significant contributions to the team in terms of appearances or goals while playing for the team, or who made significant contributions to the sport either before they played for the team, or after they left. It is clearly not yet complete and all inclusive, and additions and refinements will continue to be made over time.

Robinson Jeffers. Cawdor and Other Poems.
New York, Horace Liveright, 1928.
"If ever a man and the Sprit of Place conspired for a mystical union it is here. That portion of California---its hills, sea, blue lupine, golden poppies, sea-gulls, dirt roads, pines, firs, hawks, herons and lighthouses. . belongs as absolutely to Robinson Jeffers . . . as Wessex belong to Thomas Hardy."
Benjamin de Casseres in The Bookman November 1927
Robinson Jeffers published three books of poetry during the twenties, all of which consolidated his reputation as a poet of the natural universe and even more, of the cosmos. He had bought land in Carmel in 1919 on a hill facing Point Lobos. On August 15 Jeffers began work on his Tor House and later the forty foot high Hawk Tower, both monuments to independence and self-reliance. He became the poet of the Pacific shore, and of the sublime beauties of Northern California. Jeffers reacted sharply to what he felt was the disaster of the American dream, prizing a "detachment from the insane desire for power, wealth and permanence, in a measured indifference to pain, joy or success and in turning outward d to God who is all things." He was a poet of unusual conscience and similar integrity.
Jeffers poetry was controversial. In his narrative and tragic poems he proposed to "uncenter the human mind from itself," and produced work influenced by and equal to the Ancient Greek dramatists. He was incredibly well educated, the son of a biblical scholar and a musician, educated in private schools abroad and at the University of Southern California and Occidental College. He was an intimate of the beauties of many languages, including Hebrew, Latin, Greek, German and French. He would read to his family from the works of Thomas Hardy, Sir Walter Scott and Doestoevsky.
Many, like Dwight MacDonald, could not stomach what they felt was the glorification of violence and dark psychology of his work: "Not since the later Elizabethans has there been such a witches' dance of incest, suicide, madness, adultery and Lesbianism. "Edgar Lee Masters however, characterized him as "alive of health and of sanest vision," and Babette Deutsch in the New Republic "felt somewhat as Keats professed to feel, on looking into Chapman's Homer."

Being Grateful
It's Thanksgiving Day, and we are feeling the Fullness of Everything, within and without. Gurudeva placed great stress on being thankful, feeling it a necessary spiritual milestone to reach. Here he speaks of how gratitude can help us better our karmas when things seem rough.

From Our Gurus' Teachings
- Gurudeva's Master Course Lesson of the Day
Bodhinatha's Latest Upadesha: "Detachment from Experiences; Importance of Daily Vigil" (May 5, 2013)
All experiences are good experiences, necessary to get us here. Awareness of aspects of ourselves that are constantly changing is a liberating perception, breaking our chains to mundane areas, detaching from instinctive and intellectual to go into superconscious. The greatest challenge facing youth today is the lack of relating to the devotional side of Hinduism. Daily practice, daily vigil, moves us forward spiritually. Commentary on Merging with Siva, The Master Course, Lesson 21.

I am looking for a cut-out cookie recipe that was first published in The Bee's food section in either 1990 or 1994 for the Super Bowl in which the San Francisco 49ers were playing.
I'm looking for a recipe for a chocolate cake made from a cake mix and cherry pie filling. Has anyone made this cake or one using other combinations such as applesauce with a spice cake mix? Thanks for any help with these recipes.
I love In-N-Out's grilled cheese (sandwich), animal style. I will continue to buy them there, but I was hoping to get the recipe for their grilled cheese animal-style (sandwiches) without meat. I know that they use two slices of cheese and the spread includes mustard. It is awesome. I think even non-vegetarians would enjoy this "burger." Thank you so much.

Bernd Sturmfels
Professor of Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science 925 Evans Hall Dept. of Mathematics University of California Berkeley, CA 94720 2012-13: 331 MSRI, 510 643 6046 Phone messages: 510 642 6550
Research Interests: Algebraic Geometry, Combinatorics, Commutative Algebra, Algebraic Statistics, Convex Optimization, Computational Biology Office Hours: Wed 8:00-10:00 in 925 Evans, or by appointment
Seminars at Berkeley
Please join my Seminar on Computational Algebra in the Spring semester 2012. Of course, there are many other (past and present) wonderful seminars in my areas of interest in the Berkeley Mathematics Department, such as Combinatorics, Computational Biology, Algebraic Statistics, Tropical and Non-Archimedean Geometry, Commutative Algebra, Discrete Mathematics, and Representation Theory etc.
Flying Arrow
My wife Hyungsook published this excellent historic novel, set in 19th century Korea.
Applied Algebraic Geometry
I serve on the advisory panel for the SIAM Activity Group on Algebraic Geometry, chaired by Seth Sullivant. Please join. The first conference of this group took place in October 2011 at North Carolina State University.
Convex Algebraic Geometry
Philipp Rostalski and I ran a research seminar on this topic at Berkeley in the Spring of 2010. This seminar was part of a multi-institutional FRG project funded by the National Science Foundation. The other participants were Bill Helton and Jiawang Nie at UC San Diego, Pablo Parrilo at MIT and Rekha Thomas at U of Washington.
Lectures on Algebraic Statistics
This book is based on an Oberwolfach seminar led by Mathias Drton, Seth Sullivant and myself in May 2008. Algebraic statistics is an emerging field, aimed at solving statistical inference problems using concepts from algebraic geometry as well as related computational and combinatorial techniques. This book is an introduction to newcomers from the different camps. It is centered around three observations: many important statistical models correspond to algebraic or semi-algebraic sets of parameters; the geometry of these parameter spaces determines the behavior of statistical inference procedures; algebraic geometry can be used to study statistical models.

Green Curry Chicken with Jasmin Rice

*It doesn't look like there is a lot of sauce, but we must have drank all of that up before the picture. The sauce is a pretty, light green color and if you use 1 1/2 cans of coconut milk there is plenty to soak your rice in. The fresh cilantro on top makes for a pretty garnish and a beautiful, and overall healthy dish. Enjoy!

Mary Bronner University of Washington Medical Center Seattle, Washington
Clinical Summary: A 20-year-old man presented to his gastroenterologist with progressive dysphagia. At endoscopy, a short distal esophageal stricture was noted, which was dilated. In addition, the endoscopist noted an "atypical" esophagitis in the proximal esophagus, with an endoscopic appearance concerning for candidal esophagitis. Biopsies were obtained from both proximal and distal esophagus.
Clinical Summary: A 40-year-old woman presented with epigastric pain. CT scan of abdomen showed a small distal gastric mural nodule, suspicious for neoplasm. The patient underwent a partial gastrectomy. A 1.5 cm tan, well-circumscribed subserosal nodule was present on the distal gastric wall.
Clinical Summary: A 54-year-old Caucasian woman was referred for upper endoscopic examination because of early satiety and midepigastric pain. Endoscopic examination revealed thickened gastric folds and multiple polypoid lesions in the gastric body and fundus, which were biopsied. Serologic workup showed markedly elevated serum levels of chromogranin A (1500 pg/mL; normal <14 pg/mL) and gastrin (1400 pg/mL; normal <75 pg/mL). Based on this endoscopic appearance, laboratory work-up, and the biopsy results, she underwent subtotal gastrectomy with antrectomy. Slides from the thickened folds and nodules in the gastric body are shown.
Clinical Summary: A 53-year-old man presented with a several month history of fatigue and vague abdominal pain. Laboratory evaluation revealed mild anemia but no other abnormalities in his complete blood count or electrolyte studies. The patient subsequently presented with massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Endoscopy revealed bleeding from multiple ulcerated sites in the gastric mucosa. No masses were seen. An emergent subtotal gastrectomy was performed to control the bleeding. Images submitted are from the subtotal gastrectomy specimen.
Clinical Summary: 4 years ago, this teenager had a terminal ileal and right colonic resection with an ileostomy for a traumatic perforation. Except for the acute perforation, the resected colon and ileum were normal. The rest of the colon from the hepatic flexure through the rectum was left in place as a diverted segment. About 3 � years later, occasional stool drainage from the rectum began, and this lasted for about 6 months up to the present. Recently, there has been some blood spotting superimposed on the drainage. A colonoscopic exam was performed, but the endoscopist did not see any abnormalities. The whole colon and rectum were resected about 6 weeks after the colonoscopy. The reason for this resection is not important for this presentation. In the resected specimen, there were numerous small mucosal nodules scattered throughout. In addition, there were several small partial strictures due to mural thickening and some of these had small ulcers which tended to be situated over the points where the vessels penetrate the wall. In this slide, there are 2 sections of the colon. Figure 1 contains several of the small gross mucosal nodules. The other three figures are from one of the strictures.

Will there be x2 XP weekends?
Like (0)
good question brother , no one seems to have heard anything ...
im guessing no cause of u can buy x2 xp
but a week of double weapon xp would be nice or just a weekend
Black Ops is more modern then MW3
LATU wrote:

That makes no sense, unless blops was the first cod you played and you thought it was the only one to have those weekends.
I agree with jelysickle./ You can buy it at any point so probably not.
Though if they do it would probably tie in with the map pack releases.
Nuketown 24/7 double xp weekends were great that's when i had long sessions. Dome 24/7 or any other map sounds horrible and i would quit after 3 games. Some double xp/weapon xp would be nice though leveling up is such a grind
24/7 dome would be far far better than nuketown. 24/7 nes turtles is better than nuketown
Treyarch was definitely a LOT more generous with it's double XP. I did my share of complaining about Black Ops but MW3 makes be long for the good 'ol days.
It'll probably be when the DLC drops. Personally, I think Elite should get x2XP weekends with every drop since Elite isn't living up to it's word. That's just me though.
On 402's twitter he said they will have 2XP Days not weekends.
But it's 402 so take it for what it worth.

50 Healthy Snack Ideas for Kids plus Fun Serving Suggestions
Snacks are essential for toddlers' and preschoolers' bodies – their body chemistry works better when they can graze throughout the day, eating small portions to keep their blood sugar stable. And because we offer so many snacks, it's easy to get into periodic snack ruts.
This list is meant to help parents be mindful of healthy snack options and fun presentation ideas. Most of these snacks are quick to fix and portable, so you can pack them to send with your child on play dates, at preschool, or to just have handy in the refrigerator for when your child wants to grab a bite to eat "all by himself."
If you have snack ideas that are not on this list, please leave them in the comments – I will add to the list as you leave ideas.
Snacks are loosely grouped according to the food pyramid, but there are many crossovers. And my disclaimer: I am not a nutritionist, so please let me know if I need to switch something to a different category.
- Fresh veggies (our favorites are edamame, carrots, and broccoli, but also think about things like snap peas, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, etc.)
- Steamed veggies (we love broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans)1
- Pico de Gallo or salsa and chips
- Dehydrated veggie chips
- Baba ghanoush dip with raw veggies
- Veggie kabobs (serve them on a skewer!)
- Veggie pizza: slice tomato or eggplant, top with mushrooms, cheese, cooked/sliced carrots, spinach, and cheese, bake
- Spinach and artichoke dip with veggies and chips
- Stuffed mushrooms (stuff with tomatoes, cheese, spinach – whatever strikes your fancy!)
- Dried berries (blueberries, cherries, cranberries)
- Dried fruit (apricots, prunes, figs)
- Fruit leather
- Homemade Larabars
- Cubed melon (our favorites are watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, and Crenshaw)
- Deciduous fruits (our favorites are apples, pears, and plums)
- Vine fruits (grapes, kiwi, etc.)
- Berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc.)
- Citrus fruits (oranges, clementines, grapefruits)
- Frozen fruits (blueberries, chocolate covered bananas, halved grapes)
- Whole wheat tortilla with cream cheese or peanut butter, topped with fruit, rolled up and cut into slices
- Roll bananas in yogurt, then oats; freeze
- Fruit kabobs (serve them on a skewer!)
- Hummus
- Peanut butter and apples or celery (we use organic/no sugar added PB, it's delicious! Add raisins for ants on a log.)
- Almond butter on toast
- Chickpeas
- Hard boiled eggs
- A whole wheat tortilla spread with peanut butter, topped with slices of banana, rolled up & cut into slices
- Whole wheat tortilla with salsa or cream cheese, topped with slices of ham, turkey, etc., rolled and cut into slices
- From "Pretend Soup," mix peanut butter, applesauce, and cinnamon to desired consistency, then use as a dip.
- Scrambled egg with spinach and mozzarella cheese
- Individually wrapped string cheese
- Block cheese cut up in bites
- Cold grilled cheese sandwich
- Yogurt (try plain yogurt mixed with sugar free fruit preserves)
- Yogurt smoothies
- Yogurt popsicles
- Whole wheat tortilla sprinkled with cheese and your choice of toppings (pepperoni, turkey, mushrooms, etc.)
- Cucumber yogurt (tzatziki) dip with pita squares
- Cottage cheese with peaches or melon on top
- Energy Balls
- Dry cereal (no sugar/HCFS added)
- Rice cakes
- Whole grain muffins (use bananas, applesauce, etc.)
- Granola with yogurt
- Avocado slices
- Guacamole with pita chips
- Nuts (cashews, almonds, sunflower seeds, mixed nuts)
- Trail mix: nuts, dried berries, coconut flakes, chocolate chips, etc.
- Nut Butter Balls: 1 tbsp. almond or peanut butter, 1 tbsp. coconut oil, 1 tbsp. flaxseed meal, 1 tbsp. coconut flakes, 1 tsp. honey, dash salt, and oatmeal added to desired consistency (you can play with this recipe for your desired taste, here's a good one at Be Present Mama)
Presentation Ideas
To help entice picky eaters, try one of these fun serving suggestions:
- Use swizzle sticks
- Let kids practice with chop sticks
- Try a fun Bento box
- Serve several snacks in a muffin tin (Muffin Tin Mom has some great ideas for muffin tin snacks, and a weekly link-up where you can share your own ideas every Monday!)
- Give your toddler lots of little treats in an ice cube tray
- Let the spin their snacks on a Lazy Susan
- Try cutting sandwiches, pancakes, or tortilla snacks using cookie cutters
- Kabob it: serve healthy snacks on a skewer
- Let them play with it: have kids build sculptures out of their veggies, make mountains out of fruits, etc.
- Let them help! Kids are more likely to take interest and ownership of something they've helped make
- Fresh Vegetables at Vegan Coach has recipes at the bottom of the page for steaming, braising, roasting, etc. many different types of veggies. ↩

check out the facebook group "funky lunch" if you for some reason have hours of free time on hand, and are particularly crafty :)
love this! I am always trying to come up with new ideas for healthy snacks.
one of our favorites lately – smoothie out of a banana, frozen mixed berries, frozen spinach, ground flaxseed, whole milk yogurt, and some almond milk. -
Fabulous post! I would say, though, skewers aren't safe for very little kids. Popsicle sticks are a wonderful alternative& safe.
Psst – your Muffin Tin link goes to http://naturalparentsnetwork.com/hinduism-stepping-stone/
YUM! I often make a trail mix loaded with all kinds of the items you listed above. Thanks for the great ideas.
Now I'm hungry! The PB, applesauce and cinnamon dip sounds delish.
I just made up something new for myself as a healthy dessert: applesauce, banana mashed with some unsweetened vanilla almond milk, flax seeds, sliced almonds, nutmeg. Kinda like a "pudding" but without any added sugar or fats. My 3 year old wouldn't touch it, but my 7 month old loves it sans nuts and seeds.
I sometimes make little crustless quiche muffins with frozen spinach and a bit of cheddar mixed in, then freeze the extras.
Great list! I am going try the Lara Bar recipe, and also the energy bars and nut butter balls…

Mongolian Studies Centre
Call for papers. Deadline 30 July 2013
The 4 Nov 2013 Mongolian Studies Open Conference is a multi-disciplinary conference providing a forum for the presentation of new research on Mongolia and the Mongols, especially for scholars based in Australia. Learn more
The ANU Mongolian Studies Centre was founded in 2011 to provide a focus for the growing interest in Mongolia at the Australian National University and in Australia more generally. Historical relations between Australia and Mongolia have been sparse, but in recent years links between the two countries have grown in importance. Australia has significant involvement in the Mongolian mining and energy sectors, both countries have been involved in seeking solutions to security problems in Northeast Asia and an increasing number of young Mongolians obtain secondary and university education in Australia. Australia and Mongolia have expertise to share in handling climatic extremes, in animal husbandry and in heritage archaeology. The expansion of the Mongol empire under Chinggis Khan in the 13th century remains a pivotal event in world history which continues to catch the imagination of Australians.
The Mongolian Studies Centre hosts guest researchers working on Mongolia, organizes occasional seminars on Mongolian topics, provides a support network for Australian researchers on Mongolia and promotes Mongolian studies in Australia in general. It promotes active participation by government, business and the public in the Centre's activities.

Relocating from his hometown in Miami, Florida, New York dangled the proverbial jazz carrot that would further his musical education and place him smack-dab in the heart of America's jazz scene. Since moving there in 1997, Strickland has be seen at notable jazz spots around town, like the evening I saw him at the Blue Note playing with Tom Harrell. Marcus immediately caught my attentio …

How do you respond when someone asks: How are you? Or, how's your day?
Are you a victim and let people know it? Do you describe how lousy you feel or how crappy your situation is? Or, do you take the opportunity to communicate happiness and share positive energy? One type of response will inspire people to want to get away from you as fast as they can; the other type of response will inspire people to find (and spread) joy. What message are you conveying? With just a simple answer to a simple question, you have the power to affect everyone you meet. "We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone." (Ronald Reagan, 1911 – 2004.)
The other day I was standing in the checkout line at Trader Joe's, patiently waiting my turn. I like shopping at Trader Joe's – I like its business model and the general positive attitude of the employees. But, this time it was different. As the checker began scanning my groceries, I asked him how he was doing and about his day? He responded that he would be great – just as soon as he got out from behind his work station. He said that people always complain to him about how hard their life is; he tells them they are the lucky ones because they are on that side of the counter.
I was shocked, not so shocked that I didn't remind him he was lucky, and should feel fortunate to have a good job. Nope he said; you're the lucky one for being on that side of the check-out stand. My gut told me to get away from this guy as fast as possible; he was a negative drain and would try to zap me of all my energy. Trader Joe's typically has very upbeat people on staff; but here was one guy poisoning the experience for me and, I'm sure, everyone before me and after me.
I shared this experience with my friend (also a client for 20 years), Jim Ross of Horizon. He smiled and asked, "Jim, do you want to know what I learned from a very wise man once?" I had no idea where he was going with this, but I admire his leadership and positive outlook on life, so I asked him to go on. "When someone asks me how I am doing," he said, "I respond with just one word: unbelievable." Indeed, just a few minutes earlier he had said that very thing to the hostess who had shown us to our table. That one-word response caused her to smile. That short, but powerful one-word exchange changed her perspective and attitude and suddenly we became a couple of VIPs. All because of what Jim had said. The amazing power about the word "unbelievable" is that people don't know if you're having a bad day or a good day. It is so unusual of a reply most people just assume it is positive.
So, I decided to test this theory. WOW! People treated me differently. Most people stopped what they were doing, looked up, and smiled. One simple little word made a gigantic difference in how people treated me, which begs the question: What if we all said our day was unbelievable? If you know me, you know that I can't (and wouldn't) leave it at that. I am now challenged to look for and find the unhappiest people at the checkout stand (or anywhere, for that matter) and wait for them to ask me how I am. My response, with the volume turned up a little: UNBELEIVEABLE, how about you? I almost always get the positive response I'm looking for. Go figure, you and I can't change everyone, but we can make a difference.
