There has been a trend across the industries, since forever, to reintroduce past approaches. The automotive industry has the modern classic–old aesthetics with modern technology. Clothing manufacturers are always bringing their old lines back. Architecture finds a way of holding on to both antique and modern elements.
Old school is cool, yeah? Aside from the sentiment there's a lot of marketing behind it. That's partly how existing customers are retained while attracting young blood. Old school also works, which is why there is a growing trend in the food industry to push ingredients and recipes that were found to be beneficial centuries ago. It's a trend I'm picking to be the big new food/health/wellness trend of the year.
It's because old school works, and now science is able to evaluate why certain ingredients were so prominent in diets from particular regions. However, it's not changing the message. The message is still to eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch, and minimal sugar; keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat; use herbs and spices to flavour.
And that's what you should be doing most of the time. Do not fall into the trap of purchasing products that contain these ingredients. Yes, turmeric is a wonderful anti-inflammatory spice that's been used by populations of the subcontinent in their cooking for decades. But you don't need a pill that contains turmeric. How about you find ways to cook with it?
Food and supplements are BIG industries and that means they're in it to make money. Fair enough. Your nutrition, however, doesn't rely on what most big food industries are peddling. You've just got to eat real food, the way your ancestors did. Do what your great grandmother did!
You're fired up! It's the start of the new year, you either beginning a new health and fitness journey or carrying on from last year, and you have goals. Your momentum is high, so you're dialing in your nutrition and getting stuck into training. You're doing everything you need to, all of the time.
That might not be the best approach.
You certainly need to work towards your goals, but perfection is impossible. Balance, however, is sustainable. What I've experienced over the years, in both nutrition and training, is that almost everyone who goes "strict" all the time, even if just for specific periods, ends up going the opposite way. And that usually happens at the end of their set period or after some sort of event–birthdays, holidays, parties, etc.
Whereas those who find a healthy balance of good food and treats experience ongoing results, and are generally happier.
It's kind of a kid-in-candy-store analogy. A kid who has never been exposed to all those amazing colours and smells is likely to lose their sh*t in a candy store. But a kid who has had some exposure to candy over time is more likely to know what they want and don't want, find it, and if the parents are smart enough they'll be out of there!
If you try to keep it strict all of the time, you're probably going to lose your sh*t like that first kid.
In my opinion, it's a simple approach. Eat good food (veges, a variety of meats, nuts and seeds, some fruit and starch, a bit of dairy) MOST of the time, and go for less healthy foods (processed foods, takeaways) and sugary treats SOME of the time.
This is striving for sustainable. Excellence is sustainable.
This will be the final active week for the blog this year. The holiday period will be a good time for me to put down new content ideas and for you to to think of topics you'd like me to write about. If you'd like some reading to do on your down time, look to the right sidebar of this page and search the blog using the tags. There are 98 posts with the 'nutrition' tag! Sure, some of them will be repeats, but there's a ton of information there.
New Years is still a few days away, but that's why NOW is a good time to talk about getting started. Sure, you're going on holiday and that's a great time to indulge in food and drink. But that doesn't mean you have to eat and drink everything including the kitchen sink. Changing your mindset is the first step to changing your health and fitness, and you don't need to wait to get started to change your mindset. You just need to start.
I'll get going on Monday.
I'll start when winter is over.
I'm waiting for my friend to start with me.
I need to start that new job first.
Okay, I'll start tomorrow.
No, you're just full of excuses and bullsh*t.
Those are just a few of the familiar phrases people say when it comes to making changes that are needed to improve their health and fitness. Not the last phrase, though. That's me calling them out 😉
Are you one of those people waiting for that perfect time, when all the conditions are just right, to make changes to your nutrition for the better of your health and fitness? Well, that time is either now or never. That sort of all-or-nothing approach (to anything) typically gets us nothing. If you want to make a difference to your health and fitness, truly want to, then the only time to start is now. Here are a few tips to get you out of that stuck feeling.
Change Your Mindset
That's the first step. There will never be the perfect time to start. I'm not trying to be morbid, but you could be dead before that time comes. So get going on those changes now.
Get Support
It's often difficult to get going because you genuinely don't know what changes to make. Book in for a nutrition consult, sign up for the next lifestyle challenge, and get yourself some books. Support, however, also comes from those you spend most of your time with – friends, family and work colleagues. Tell them about your goals and what you're going to do to achieve them. Tell them when the going gets tough and share your successes with them because they'll keep your fire burning.
If they don't support you or belittle your goals and achievements, delete them.
Just Get Going
You are able to start right now, while reading this post. You don't have to go to the supermarket before changing your mindset, you just need to change it. Write down your new intentions and post them to places you won't miss them. They shouldn't be grand goals and massive schemes, though. Think of the smallest change you could make in the next 10 minutes. Aim to be just 1% better everyday.
Make it a Priority
YOU have to make YOUR health and fitness a priority. IF it is a priority, good nutrition becomes a priority by default. IF nutrition is a priority, making the time to buy, prepare and eat healthy food won't be a problem. Look at your schedule and find the time.
You are going to have challenges, but what matters is that you've started. It's much easier to prevent a stopped train from moving forward than it is to stop a travelling train 😉-Imtiaz
TRAIN TO EAT or EAT TO PERFORM?-
"I can have dessert because I'll burn the calories in training tomorrow. That's why I like to do lots of exercise–so I can eat anything." It's a culture, and not a surprising one given that people in the developed world are hedonistic eaters. In general, people eat to feel good. When you do feel good your body's reward system encourages you to repeat the behaviour that's providing the pleasure.
So you keep eating, whether it's too much good food or lots of bad food. You know that even too much of a good thing can be bad, but it feels so good that you just "can't" stop. But that's okay, because you're training! As long as you expend the same amount of calories that you consume you'll be good, right?
Not quite. The calories in versus calories out equation is far more complex than that. More importantly, your body needs nutrients to function healthily. So all the training may be offsetting some of the calories you consume while making you fitter, all the bad calories are affecting both your health and body composition.
It's similar to the effects of too much steady-state cardio coupled with insufficient food. In that case you end up slimmer but with a high percentage of body fat. In both cases, dietary habits outweigh the effects of training, leaving you with a less than ideal body composition and lacking in health. Those sorts are pretty easy to spot in the gym too. You're either looking at a slim athlete who crushes bodyweight and endurance based workouts but gets crushed by any form of load. Or a well built athlete with a big engine, and a beer belly!
I'm in favour of eating for pleasure too. You've got one, short life so you best live it well. But you want to live it well for as long as you are around, and that's why health and fitness are placed on the same continuum. You can, and should, be both fit and healthy. And you can enjoy food while still being fit and healthy. It comes down to your mind set.
Eat for health and performance, instead of training so that you can eat. Give your body the quality fuel it needs to support your levels of activity while not supporting body fat, and do so most of the time. You won't be able to out-train a shitty diet for very long.
Something I've learnt over the years is that the silly season isn't just defined by the period across Christmas and New Years when most people are away. The silly season starts in November and carries on through to some time later in January. So let's revisit some silly season nutrition and training tips.
For me, it's pretty straightforward – if you'd like to hold on to the changes you've made until now you simply keep doing what you have been. But I get it, it's a festive time, it's been a challenging year and you'd like to kick back. You should!
I always say that you're going to be away for a month at the most. That's just one month. It's nothing relative to your lifetime, and about 5% of your training time during the year, IF you were consistent throughout the year. If you weren't consistent, then you shouldn't be worrying about losing all your gains during the holidays…..because you don't have any gains!
So relax, enjoy your food and live well. But at the same time, I'd like to see you keep at least one foot on the wagon because if you do come off it entirely, it can take a very long time to get just that one foot on again.
Here are some tips to help you. Remember that it's not a one-size-fits-all approach, and keep it simple.
Protein and Fat
Aim to get a moderate amount in at all meals and snacks. It keeps you satiated so you're less likely to snack, and protein has a thermic effect so it keeps your metabolism ticking over. If you're not doing any physical activity that day, have a bit less than you normally would.
A reminder: All veges and fruit, all starches, fruit juices, baking, sweets and chocolates, ice-cream, and all grain-based products end up the same way – as sugar. The goodies, however, spike blood sugar and therefore insulin, stimulating the storage of fat, especially if you aren't exercising much.
Have the goodies, but make that your carb for that meal or snack. If you are training, have your goodies after training. Put simply, if you plan on having treats, have less or none of the 'good carbs' to keep total carb intake similar to what it would be normally. But don't avoid the veges, roots, tubers and fruit entirely because you need the fibre, mineral and nutrients.
There isn't a particular amount of water that you should be having. Drink if you're thirsty and avoid sports drinks and off-the-shelf fruit juices. Opt for a freshly squeezed juice and avoid sodas as much as possible. Tea and coffee does contribute to your fluid intake. Alcohol does not so avoid using it as your hydration 😉
Stay Active
You don't have to train as much or as intensely as you would normally to maintain your fitness. In fact, the down time will do your mind and body good. But keep active as a way of expressing your fitness. Play sports, hike, cycle, swim, and try different stuff. Walking can be especially beneficial. Go for brisk, long walks every day if you aren't doing any other physical activity.
Eat for Yourself
If your mates or partners can have a burger, fries and milkshake for lunch everyday without much ill-effect, it doesn't mean that the same will happen to you. Be realistic about your body's response to foods, and eat accordingly.
I personally consider holidays a time for (more) food and lots of sleep. So don't geek out too much about what you're eating while away!

After traveling to both Switzerland and Washington, DC, I've been pondering where home is after having been living in three countries and on as many continents!
Switzerland will always be home, but when traveling back to Cartagena, I referred to it as flying home. Washington, DC will always be home after having lived there for 15++ years. So do I have three homes? Will I have four once we will leave here?
My personal opinion is that home is where ever you make it to be, where Anthony is, where the heart is, where your family is, where your friends are and where memories are being made…
For now, I'm calling CTG home, and loving doing so.

MDE Announces M-STEP Results Release Schedule
This week's Spotlight on Assessment and Accountability from MDE's Division of Accountability Services contained several pieces of information that Principals will want to be aware of. Not the least of these: MDE has committed to getting schools preliminary M-STEP results within approximately 2 weeks of the close of each testing window.
Final results will not be available until fall, but MDE has already made sample preliminary reports available so teachers and administrators can get an idea of what information they will be receiving this spring. See the full announcement at the end of this article.
Additionally, Principals will want to be aware that MDE has added a new, regular feature to their Spotlight publication: SAT Corner. This feature will provide important information and resources from the College Board and MDE to support the transition to the SAT as the college entrance test portion of the Michigan Merit Examination. You can find SAT corner in this week's edition of Spotlight.
Spring 2015 Assessment Results
The Division of Accountability Services at the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) is committed to providing schools and districts preliminary assessment data within approximately 2 weeks of the close of each testing window. This transitional year data can be used by teachers, administrators, and school support staff to assist with curriculum planning and classroom level improvement. As this is the first year of the M-STEP, reports will be basic and MDE will look to students, parents, teachers, and school support staff to assist with continuous improvement of the timeline and the look and feel of the reports.
We appreciate your understanding as we navigate a new statewide assessment together, and ask for your continued involvement and feedback in the coming months. As the State Superintendent has decided during this transition to delay high stakes accountability through our federal Flex waiver, the preliminary assessment data will be provided to districts as information-only for use in their school improvement planning and other non-high stakes purposes as they see fit.
Below is an example of what preliminary reports will look like later this spring. A larger sample is available on the M-STEP web page www.michigan.gov/mstep under What's New or just click on this link: http://www.michigan.gov/documents/mde/Student_Level_ Preliminary_Report_Sample_488867_7.pdf?20150507162806.
Additional information about these reports and how to use them will be published in future Spotlights.
MDE expects final assessment results to be available in the fall. Please see Recommended Uses for 2015 Assessment Data located on the M-STEP web page under the What's New section or click on this link http://www.michigan.gov/documents/mde/ Recommended_Use_of_2015_Data_488728_7. pdf?20150506135646 for guidance on how to consider this year's final assessment results.

STORY: Will A Few Flirtatious Steps
Harry Norcliffe never wanted to inherit his beloved uncle's title. The rigidity of the ton, the incessant reminders from his marriage-minded mama that he must settle down with a highborn lady and produce an heir and a spare: it's all such a dreadful bore. So when his mother asks him to take part in a dancing competition, he patently refuses. The last thing he needs is another chore . . . until a beautiful, brilliant, delightfully tempting maid makes him rethink his position.
Lead To A Scandalous Seduction?
Most women would be over the moon to be pursued by a wickedly handsome-not to mention wealthy-duke like Norcliffe. But Lucy will not be any man's trophy. She could use a friend, though, and what begins innocently soon ignites into desire. As Lucy tries to resist Harry's scorching kisses, he makes an utterly irresistible offer. Enter the dance contest with him, and win a prize that could change her life forever . . . if falling in love doesn't change it first.
REVIEW: 'What a Devilish Duke Desires' is Vicky Dreiling's third story in her Sinful Scoundrels series and a really sweet romance. This was Harry's story and if you've read the previous two books, you'll remember Harry as a young man who Earl of Bellingham literally "fished" out from the Thames and befriended. The story is a stand alone, but if you do have a chance to read the other two, you'll appreciate his back story that much more.
In this story we see Harry coping with his beloved uncle's death and newly acquired title, as well as with society in general. He manages to navigate the latter but when it comes to dealing with his mother, he is having a hard time putting her off and letting her know in no uncertain terms that when it comes to his marital state, he is well capable of taking care of it all on his own.
Lucy, a commoner living with her grandmother in a part of London that isn't all that safe, is a hard-working young woman who at the start of the story loses her full-time job as a seamstress and now has to relay on her part-time position of a dance instructor's assistant. When the said instructor shows up drunk and is called out by the lady who hired him to teach her young girls dancing, our heroine is devastated because she is expecting to be dismissed as well. But the opposite happens, and now she is being helped by the grand lady in teaching not just her girls but other members of the ton as well.
I find stories about aristocracy mixing with commoners to be a hard sell, yet Ms. Dreiling is a master of her craft and I should have had more faith in her storytelling.
I loved these two so much. Both were so sweet and so innocent yet when push came to shove, both showed how strong they can be. It was so much fun watching these two come together!
For a story filled with fun dialogue and a unique plot, don't look no further.

A "Starr Report" exclusive:
British comic Russell Brand has signed on for an episode of Nickelodeon's "Big Time Rush."
The episode, tentatively titled "Beach Blanket Big Time," doesn't yet have an official airdate. Brand is expected to play himself in several scenes that take place during a party at his beach-front "mansion," where Big Time Rush plays a concert (it's possible Brand will join them for an onstage jam session).
"Big Time Rush" has been corralling some big names of late; Snoop Dogg and Fabio (well, a sort-of-big name) appear on this Saturday's episode (8 p.m.), along with "iCarly" star Miranda Cosgrove.
Brand, who recently married Katy Perry, is also scheduled for a voiceover on "The Simpsons" this season.
I'm not sure I've yet forgiven he and Jonathan Ross for prank-calling "Fawlty Towers" co-star Andrew Sachs (Manuel) on Brand's BBC Radio show back in 2008 (they left vulgar messages on Sachs' answering machine asserting that Brand had slept with Sachs' granddaughter, goth model Georgina Baillie). Sachs was 78 years old at the time.
The incident led to Brand and Ross' resignation and a 150,000-pound fine levied on the Beeb for airing the calls.
More Nickelodeon: Mel Brooks is lending his pipes (and animated presence) to an upcoming episode of Nick at Nite's "Glenn Martin, DDS," which will also feature Billy Idol. And when's the last time you saw "Mel Brooks" and "Billy Idol" in the same sentence?
The episode, airing tomorrow, is an homage of sorts to those old TV holiday specials, with Brooks, hosting the show (think Burl Ives in "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer") and also playing the voice of "Canine." Idol wrote a new song for the episode, which he'll perform (to the tune of "Comfort and Joy"); other guest voiceovers include Jeff Goldblum and Don Johnson.
Kevin Nealon, Catherine O'Hara and Judy Greer (or, more accurately, their voices) headline "Glenn Martin."
* * *
Maurice DuBois has been named Chris Wragge's anchor replacement at Ch. 2.
DuBois will co-anchor Ch. 2's 5 and 11 p.m. newscasts with Kristine Johnson beginning Jan. 3, once Wragge moves to "The Early Show," which he'll co-anchor with Erica Hill.
DuBois, who's been at Ch. 2 since 2004 — he was at Ch. 4 before that — has anchored the weekday editions of "CBS 2 News This Morning" and has subbed on weekend editions of the "CBS Evening News" and "The Early Show."
* * *
Oscar winner Hilary Swank drops by tonight's "Tavis Smiley Show" (midnight/Ch. 13) to chat with Tavis Smiley about a number of topics — including her life as an actress, playing brave women on-screen and working with Clint Eastwood on "Million Dollar Baby."
"Clint has been an enormous gift to me," she tells Smiley. "He is a seasoned, sage person . . . Working for him has probably been the highlight of my career."
On whether acting his her "true calling," Swank says, "This is my calling, for sure. Every day I do this I am so grateful." And she says that "something happens to me" when she's playing brave women. "I'm moved with something in my soul," she says. "I learn about myself and who I want to be and become and how I want to grow as a person."
Last, but not least:
* Federico Castellucio (Furio on "The Sopranos") will serve as auctioneer this Saturday at the 17th annual Lady in Red Gala, sponsored by LIFE-Leaders in Furthering Education. It benefits the America Veterans Disabled for Life Memorial and unfolds at Donald Trump's Mar-A-Lago (in Palm Beach) . . . DVD: "Boy Meets World: The Complete Fourth Season," is out Dec. 7, while episodes from Johnny Carson's "Tonight Show" and "Mister Rogers' Neighborhoood" will be available on DVD through amazon.com's CreateSpace DVD on Demand platform.

I've been trying to whittle down my baking items stash, which at one time took up an awful lot of pantry shelf space, since I won't be baking much for the next six months or so. Besides the flour and sugar staples, I'm down to half a bag of white chocolate chips, a bag of caramels, a couple ounces of unsweetened chocolate and a brownie mix.
I must admit that on some Thursday mornings, my attitude isn't as sunny as it should be.
I dislike helping with "guiding reading" time because the kids don't listen to me and are generally interested in everything else BUT doing what the teacher asked of us.
Sometimes the kids leave me feeling like pounding my head.
Sometimes they leave me crying "whhhyyy!?!" As in, "why won't you sit still and read?!?"
And other times they are complete angels and cooperate fully, leaving me feeling guilty for not wanting to go in the first place.
Um, yeah…you don't have to say anything. I already know what you're thinking.

You need not worry concerning moving calls, liquidity or margin. If you purchase a binary alternative with 75 % reward and 10 % refund will certainly obtain 175 % if the choice is a winner or 10 % if it is a loser.

There is a place that does not discriminate. Nearly all will walk through their doors at one point or another in their lives. Young/old, rich/poor, black/white and everything in between! Society, as a whole, comes together here and intermingles. Where is this glorious place I speak of? Why none other than the DMV!
It was the last day of the month and I needed to renew the tags on my car. I knew it was going to be crazy and I had kind of sort of mentally prepared myself for it. I try to consciously be a positive person because if I'm not conscious about it, I tend towards negativity very quickly. I grabbed my number, 169, and noticed they were on 154. Ok, gonna be here a while! There was barely a seat in the place, but I found one.
As I looked around I saw people from every walk of life and I kind of just took it all in. Sometimes I get this overwhelmingly intense love for humanity that is almost painful. Like, look at all of us here right now living this life and doing our thing. It's quite beautiful really. I think it is a reason I went into nursing: this intense love of humanity. I see beauty and struggle and strength in each face as they fiddle with their papers and look at their phones and try to get their kids to sit down. We are all just here, right here, right now. It's the most simple and complex thing in the world.
A young mom came in and was struggling with her 4 little ones. She had a toddler on her back in a carrier, a newborn in an infant carrier on a stroller, and 2 what looked to be preschool age kiddos. By the sounds of them, it must have been about nap time. The toddler was crying, the preschoolers didn't want to listen, at least the newborn was sleeping peacefully! The women next to me sighed heavily when this mom walked by with all here kids and this upset me. It upset me because I have been there and done that! As she finished her business at the counter and made her way back out the door I made the conscious effort to make eye contact with her and to smile. I am betting she does not get that too often. She smiled back and headed out the door.
My time to renew my tags came and went with little incident and before I knew it, I was on the road back home. As I drove I reflected on how that little connection of humanity meant a lot to ME. I encourage you to seek out situations like this in your own life. Observe, take it all in, love people, and let them know it. Even in someplace as hated as the DMV.

History of Chouteau County
Chouteau county was named for Charles P. Chouteau, the fur trader whose history is identified with that of old Fort Benton. Prior to its division in i9i i this was the largest county not only in the state but in the entire United States. Situated immediately south of Canada it covered a vast territory extending one hundred and sixty-eight miles east and west and one hundred and eight miles north and south. With an area of 15,439 square miles in 1910 it had but 17,191 inhabitants. It was far too enormous for the convenient administration of its affairs. Fort Benton, the county seat, is located in the extreme southwest portion, and the county was so large that people in some parts, in order to get to the county seat were compelled to travel two hundred, and in some cases, two hundred and fifty miles, of which distance in some instances, fifty or more miles had to be traveled before the railroad was reached. This condition led to an agitation to remove the county seat to Havre, but it developed that the real sentiment was for division, and to avoid any county seat removal fight, a convention was held at Havre, October, 1909, to discuss the matter of division. The result was an agreement, signed by the entire delegation from the towns represented at the meeting, to work for a three county division before the coming legislature.
The Havre convention agreed upon the following division: draw a line from the Canadian line south to the Missouri river, three miles west of the range line, between ranges 17 and 18. Thence draw another line between townships 30 and 31, beginning at the west boundary line of the county, and running each to the range line between ranges 8 and 9, thence south to the line between townships 28 and 29, and thence west to the first line mentioned. Everything west of the north and south line constitutes one of the new counties, and everything lying west of the line, and north of the east and west line constitutes another new county, the remainder to be Chouteau county.
Chouteau county is for the most part prairie land. The Bear Paw Mountains rise in the eastern section and the Little Rockies and the Highwood ranges are in the southern portion. The rivers are the Missouri, the Teton, the Marias, the Milk and the Arrow. The Missouri river crosses the county and for many miles separates it from Fergus county. The elevations are not generally high, and the mountainous area is not, large.
Rough lands border the rivers at places, but perhaps three-fourths of the county consists of prairies, plains and rolling hills.
The average precipitation of northern central Montana is about seventeen and one-third inches and in some localities near the mountains it is above twenty. "Throughout the year the distribution," says the' government weather report, "is especially favorable for agriculture since more than half of the annual amount falls during the four principal growing months, April ,to July, inclusive."
The annual mean temperature is 40.4 at Chester, 41.9 at Chinook, 44.1 at Fort Benton, 41.9 at Havre and 38.8 at Gold Butte. Chinook winds are more common than in other parts of the state and modify the cold of winter. A comparison of temperatures shows that Havre is warmer during the winter than any point along the Great Northern in Minnesota orNorth Dakota. Records kept at the places named for periods ranging from thirteen to thirty-eight years show the mean temperature for the months of November, December, January, February, and March, according to the table published in the Havre Promoterto be: At Havre, 21.5 degrees; at St. Paul, 21.1; at Duluth, 18.8; at Morehead, 13.7; at Crookston, 13.1; at Pembina, 8.9; and at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, 20.6. The mean winter temperature of Havre is practically the same as that of St. Paul, but the climate is more agreeable. There are more days of sunshine; and owing to the lack of humidity in the atmosphere when the temperature is at zero at Havre the cold is less chilling than it is at St. Paul when the thermometer is fifteen degrees above zero.
There is timber in the mountains, but few trees away from them. Coal, which is relied upon for fuel, crops out at many places, and is mined at Havre, Big Sandy and Chinook. One of the most productive gold districts of Montana is near Zortman in the Little Rockies.
The stock industry is a leading one and before its division the country ranked second in value of livestock. Cattle and sheep in great numbers flourish on the nutritious native grasses that everywhere abound. Fort Benton, Havre, Chinook and Harlem are the centers of this industry.
The soil for the most part is fertile and produces large yields of wheat, oats, barley, rye, flax, corn, root crops, alfalfa and blue- joint grass.
A remarkable growth in the number and production of farms has taken place in the past four years, before which time farming was chiefly on irrigated tracts. The Milk River valley is very extensive and many acres near Havre, Chinook, Harlem and Dodson are irrigated, besides smaller areas in other parts. Great crops are grown on irrigated lands, and the irrigated acres will be greatly increased when the Milk River reclamation project is completed. The increase in the number of farms and the production of farm products is due to the settlement of bench and prairie lands, back from the valleys, and their cultivation without irrigation. Large crops have been harvested in almost every instance by farmers who have followed the approved methods of cultivation.
The products of the unirrigated farms of Chouteau county displayed at the Montana State Fair of 1911 were wonderful both in quality and variety and received many prizes.
The transition from a range country to a grain growing country is here but in its first stages. But it is to be noted that in portions of this country sufficiently remote from each other to give the assurance of similar results in practically all portions, grain yields have been good for several successive seasons.
Winter wheat properly grown has frequently shown twenty-five bushels to the acre, and in some instances the yields have been higher. Oats yield from thirty-eight to sixty bushels, the yields approaching the latter figures coming from careful preparation of the seed bed and equally careful farming. Well grown crops of flax have yielded better than twelve bushels, and alfalfa yields on these lands without irrigation from two to two and one-half tons per acre.
Not until very recent years has there been anything like a fair appreciation of the productive capacity of these bench land barns in the growing of vegetables and root crops without irrigation.
There are many roots and vegetables that mature early enough to escape the dry season, and these plants as a class do not require a great deal of moisture. There is no reason why every farmer who, farms without irrigation should not have a garden to supply his family with vegetables, and to furnish a source of income.
While the growing season in the Fort Ben- ton section is comparatively short, the length of the summer days of sunshine makes up for the lesser number. Peas, beans and potatoes develop to perfection here, and of the latter, farmers hereabouts every year ship carloads to outside points.
This vicinity is known as the "Big Grass Country." Two classes of barley, the hulless and the two-rowed, have been successfully grown. The hulless barley is early maturing, and one of the best dry farm spring grains. It yields an average of nearly twenty-five bushels to the acre and its bushel's weight is sixty pounds. It has high feeding value for all classes of livestock. The common two- rowed barley is a little slower in maturing and does not yield quite so well as the hulless, yet it gives very profitable returns.
One of the most promising upland farm grain and forage crops is the corn. The earlier maturing strains have been grown over the state and grain yields ranging around forty bushels, with forage yields of three tons to the acre, have been harvested. Alfalfa, broom grass, tall oat grass, and corn fodder may be profitably raised. Alfalfa has been grown in all sections of the state and is well adapted to the lands such as surround Fort Benton. During the past six years alfalfa has been raised on the various sub-stations throughout the northern Montana, the yield ranging from one to three tons, with an average of approximately two tons per acre harvested.
As mentioned above, good yields of corn fodder have been harvested. This indicates good feeding possibilities and suggests the great dairy development which always comes where corn is raised.
In addition to the standard stock feeding crops, some of the root crops, like mangels and sugar beets, may be profitably raised and will furnish cheap feed. Since the feeding of livestock is bound to be one of the most profitable of the farm activities, and valuable feeding crops may be raised, there is no reason why the farmers of the "Big Grass Country" should not become extensive and successful feeders and dairymen.
The Montana Central division of the Great Northern runs from Havre crossing the county from northeast to southwest and affords communication with Great Falls, Helena andButte.
Fort Benton, an old, rich and historic town, situated at the head of navigation on the Missouri river, is the county seat and is the commercial and financial center of an extensive country. It has a daily newspaper, large banks and business houses, and many costly business buildings and residences.
The population of Chouteau county in 1900 was 10,996 and 17,191 in 1910, an increase of 56.3 per cent. The assessed valuation of property in 1908 was $12,632,632 and $17,862,407 in 1911 before its division, an increase of forty-one per cent in three years.

The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling that blocks investors from suing Wall Street investment banks under antitrust laws could save Wall Street firms a bundle by limiting investors to smaller recoveries.Wall Street institutions in the case before the Supreme Court were Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, formerly Credit Suisse First Boston LLC; Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc.; Citigroup Global Markets Inc.; Comerica Inc.; Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.; Fidelity Distributors Corp.; Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC; Fidelity Investments Institutional Services Co. Inc.; Goldman, Sachs & Co.; The Goldman Sachs Group Inc.; Janus Capital Management LLC; Lehman Brothers Inc.; Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc.; Morgan Stanley & Co. Inc.; Robertson Stephens Inc.; Van Wagoner Capital Management Inc.; and Van Wagoner Funds, Inc.
In a case dating back to the dot-com bubble, the high court ruled Monday that antitrust suits would pose a "substantial risk" to the securities market. Damages in antitrust cases are tripled, in contrast to penalties under the securities laws.
The ruling struck down a lower court decision that would have allowed investors to go after Wall Street firms that they say engaged in anticompetitive practices by conspiring to drive up prices on about 900 newly issued stocks in the late 1990s.
Because the well-documented implosion of names like Enron Corp. swallowed any serious money that investors might hope to recover from that and other flame-outs, some investors have turned to the banks and other Wall Street regulars such as accounting firms that did work for such companies.
These institutions may not have "Anti-Trust" anxiety from the Supreme Court any longer yet there are plenty of other Operational Risks on their minds. Namely International Fraud.
In an era of data warehousing, metadata management, business process management and the looming BASEL II Accord there are plenty of conversations about what to do about fraud and other regulatory compliance. Multi-factor authentication for online banking systems is not a trivial matter when it comes to Enterprise Risk Management. Is the customer service organization ready for the upgrade? Is the consumer going to be confused on what questions they are being asked to get access to their latest online credit card statement? What is my customer "churn" factor? In other words, how many of my customers are jumping ship as a result of the operational risks that have turned their loyalty into consumer driven class action fraud litigation?
An International Banking Fusion Center is on the horizon and it's not too far from the same justification that addresses Know Your Customer (KYC) and the financing of terrorism.
According to one study respondent, "Organizations are secretive of fraud losses and that inhibits our ability to work together."
"The sharing of intelligence is key to being able to take advantage of the predictability of fraud," First Data's Barwell continues. "Banks are sitting on valuable data that, if analyzed innovatively, could provide fraud intelligence worth sharing. One major bank has shown that if their internal client databases across business lines and geographies are analyzed using sophisticated link analysis tools, spurious networks of accounts can be uncovered and, when fully investigated, could uncover organized networks of first-party fraud accounts."
Barwell adds that several U.S. banks have expressed interest in taking the "quantum leap" to true data sharing.
The International Language of Fraud
"In the last eight to 10 years, fraud has really gone international," says Steve Baker, director of the Midwest region of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The FTC maintains a Consumer Sentinel database that includes more than 3.5 million consumer fraud complaints and is accessible to more than 3,000 law enforcement agencies internationally. In 2006, 22 percent of the reported fraud was cross border.
So What? What does information sharing have in common with:
International fraud, Identity Theft and the risk of litigation within the banking or credit card industry. Now the bankers want to sue the retailers and recover losses for the lack of privacy and security controls at the retailers. Since December 2006, plaintiffs' class action firms in California and elsewhere have filed over 200 nationwide class actions in federal court against a broad spectrum of retailers and restaurants alleging violations of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act ("FACTA"). In addition to California federal courts, FACTA cases have been filed recently in federal courts in Pennsylvania, Illinois, New Jersey, Nevada, Maryland and Kansas.

This section is from the book "Gardening In California: Landscape And Flower", by John McLaren. Also available from Amazon: Gardening In California: Landscape And Flower.
An extensive genus of hardy ornamental perennials with ranunculus-like flowers and variously-shaped leaves, some species (such as Anemone Japonica) growing to a height of three or four feet, and others (such as Anemone hepatica) growing only a few inches high. Some are suitable for borders, while others (such as Anemone coronaria) are best grown in beds of rich light soil, in a sheltered, partially-shaded situation. The tuberous-rooted species should be planted in October or early in November, about six inches apart and three inches deep, and if, in addition, there is planted a carpet of Pansies, or, better still, of the blue-flowering Arabis, a most charming effect will be produced. After flowering and as soon as the leaves turn yellow, the tubers should be taken up and spread thinly in a shady airy place until they are dry, when the leaves should be taken off the tubers, and the tubers stored, in a cool dry place, in boxes of dry soil until the planting season.
Anemone fulgens is a perennial species and prefers a moist situation and partial shade, but does well under any ordinary garden treatment. Anemone Japonica makes an admirable border plant, easily grown and propagated by division of the root. For cutting purposes this species and its white variety are invaluable.

Bagpipes the Little Blue penguin gets a new 3D-printed foot
In 2007, Bagpipes the penguin lost his left foot after it got stuck in a fishing line.
But, this week, the Little Blue penguin, who lives at the International Antarctic Centre in Christchurch, New Zealand, was back on two feet after being fitted with a 3D printed limb.
In a clip that pulls at the heart strings, the little penguin can be seen taking his first tentative steps on his new foot, which will allow him to swim and waddle comfortably for the first time in nine years.
Bagpipes has spent the last decade hobbling around on a stump wrapped in the foam from beer bottle holders to provide support.
'When he got out of the pool he was using parts of his body that he shouldn't, like his beak and flippers, so hopefully this prosthetic will help with that,' penguin keeper Mal Hackett told the New Zealand press.
His prosthetic is believed to be the first of its kind to be fitted to a wild animal in New Zealand. The process of fitting it to the penguin was not without its challenges, however.
'The hardest part was scanning his foot because he is quite wriggly,' said Dr Don Clucas, who designed the limb. It was also tricky getting Bagpipes to sit still long enough for it to be fitted.
As he got used to it, he did fall on his beak and topple into walls a few times. But doctors say Bagpipes will be back to tapping (or at least walking on) his happy feet normally in no time.
Sorry, this video isn't available any more.
And, if you were wondering how he got his name, his rescuer was a Scottish man who initially wanted to name him Haggis, but, with a little persuasion from the Antarctic Centre, eventually settled on Bagpipes.

How to position yourself as an internet and / or social media expert
I know how anybody can get a job immediately.
Simply proclaim yourself a social networking or internet expert.
Anyone can do it. And believe me, anyone is doing it.
Lately I've been meeting people who have done it everywhere I go. And I've identified additional pros through LinkedIn groups, Twitter, etc. So I look at their work online.
I don't consider myself to be an expert, merely a practitioner who is still in the learning phase. I launched my first website in 1998 and my first blog more than a year ago, I've been on Twitter and LinkedIn for awhile and my Facebook profile is modest at best.
Oh, and nothing on YouTube so far.
Someday I may be in the market for advisors on how to take these to more sophisticated levels from a marketing perspective. (I already have tech help with my websites and certain other services.) However, I'll be darned fussy about who I'd rely on for advice.
Because when I look at the work of self-proclaimed experts, it's simply astounding the level of chutzpah (nerve) out there.
I've reframed my findings as minimal recommendations. Trust me, I've seen all of these recommendations violated by so-called pros.
Recommendations for internet and SEO (search engine optimization) experts:
To represent yourself as an internet / SEO expert, I expect you to have minimally:
- An actual website, complete with a headline and copy.
- Signs of optimization, especially Page Code. (Click on View, then Page Source.)
- No "under construction" copy.
- More enticing headline than "Welcome to …"
- Excellent copy with correct spelling, punctuation and grammar. (I wouldn't let anyone who is careless with this touch my internet presence.)
- A little substance as measured by multiple website pages or one page of at least moderate length. (Of course, the purpose of the website determines specifics here. But it's like modern art; I know it when I see it.)
- Your photo and / or something resembling a logo
Recommendations for social media experts (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn)
To represent yourself as a social media expert, I expect you to have minimally:
- A presence on Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. Participation on additional networking sites is optional.
- On Twitter, at least 100 messages (tweets). At least 100 people being followed and 100 people you follow—big entities like NPR or the Today Show don't count. Twitter is especially important because it is the most transparent of the tools and the easiest to assess.
- Tweets of several types: your own marketing, connecting with other people, links to content on websites other than your own, motivational or practical advice, retweets. If you teach how to make connections, I've got to see evidence of some connections on your part.
- Actual entries on all of your blogs and websites. "Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edit or delete it, then start," does not count. (Honest, I've seen this on "expert" sites.)
- Complete, coherent listings showing how to find you on the Internet and in all social media in which you claim expertise. In other words, the lists match up on all "contact" pages and business cards.
- Grammatical writing. Correct spelling and punctuation. Yeah, I'm old school.
- Some content that proves you're a thought leader. Or at least that you have a thought or two.
Some experts would argue that it's about quality, not quantity, especially in regards to Twitter content. A valid point but there must be sufficient quantity to evaluate quality fairly.
Think I expect too much?

Eicher Motors to shut down its equal joint venture with Polaris, EEPL
12 March 2018
Eicher Motors is shutting down its personal utility vehicle division with immediate effect, which it had set up as an equal joint venture with American firm Polaris. The maker of Royal Enfield motorcycles had invested Rs2.9 billion in the venture, which will now be written down. The joint venture suffered a loss of Rs 0.91 billion in FY17.
In 2015, Eicher Polaris, the joint venture company, had launched Multix, which was positioned as the country's first personal utility vehicle. The vehicle was targeted at independent businessmen in smaller cities and towns.
Multix, which rolled out from the company's Jaipur manufacturing unit had a separate marketing network. The vehicle had initially generated significant interest from customers, but the company said in a statement, ''The initial interest could not be sustained and the subsequent sales performance was significantly slower than expectations. Despite several initiatives, the company's performance could not be revived. It is in the best interest of all stakeholders to close the operations.''
Over the coming days, Eicher Polaris would engage with all its stakeholders, including customers, suppliers, employees and channel partners to implement the closure. According to Eicher it would continue to provide spares and service support for the fleet of Multix vehicles on the road.
The board of Eicher Polaris Pvt Ltd (EPPL) has passed a resolution to close operations of the JV firm with immediate effect, Eicher Motors said in a statement. The EEPL board met on 9 March, it added.

Two four-year-olds' version of a mansion complete with a swimming pool, bedrooms, bathrooms, and even a separate house for pet babies using only a basket of geometric block pieces.
Believe me, I've tried building something out of these block pieces, but all I see are shapes on top of each other. My brain is so structured with the concrete that I really have a hard time creating something else with it. This is why I'm always, always amazed at how vast a child's imagination can be which, even to the most creative of adults, can never have again.

Philadelphia Art Museum
I love the Philadelphia Art Museum! The first Sunday of the month is "Pay What You Want". I am so glad that they do this so that we can enjoy the museum even when money is tight.
Here are some of my favorite pieces from the museum-
Van Gogh painted lots of sunflowers! Here is a website that teaches us about this series and subject.
Monet – beautiful and peaceful http://www.claudemonetgallery.org/
Renoir – always beautiful http://www.philamuseum.org/collections/permanent/82727.html
Degas – ballet is a favorite muse – Paintings and sculpture http://www.edgar-degas.org/

Monet & Degas are two of my favorite artists.

A New Mexico-licensed truck driver has been found to be an imminent hazard to public safety and has been ordered not to operate any commercial motor vehicle in interstate commerce, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA).
Bobby C. Cleveland, a commercial driver's license holder, was served the federal orders earlier this month. On April 29 of this year, Cleveland was operating a 2,400-gallon propane tanker truck in McKinley County, N.M., when the vehicle overturned, resulting in the release of hazardous material and the temporary closure of Interstate 40.
New Mexico Highway Patrol officers responding to the crash subsequently charged Cleveland with operating the vehicle under the influence of an intoxicating beverage. The police investigation remains open.
For each of the past three years, federal and state safety inspectors have conducted approximately 3.5 million random roadside inspections of commercial vehicles and of their drivers. In 2012, on 2,494 occasions — 0.26 percent of the unannounced inspections — a CDL holder was immediately placed out-of-service and cited for violating federal regulations governing alcohol consumption. In 2011, FMCSA records show that there were 2,476 violations of this regulation; in 2010, the number was 2,655.
Federal safety regulations require that truck and bus companies that employ CDL drivers conduct random drug and alcohol testing programs. FMCSA requires these carriers to randomly test 10 percent of their CDL drivers for alcohol and 50 percent of their CDL drivers for drugs each year.
Truck and bus companies are further required to perform drug and alcohol testing on new hires, drivers involved in significant crashes and whenever a supervisor suspects a driver of using drugs or alcohol while at work.
