By the end of the second week, Poppy still wouldn't tell us anything about the people who were after her.
When Page told me about Allen Reynolds, fear grabbed hold of my heart and squeezed it until I couldn't breathe. I would never let that man within a hundred feet of Poppy if I could help it. When Page described him, his automatic distrust and hatred for the man seeped into me, and I felt it mirrored in myself. I hadn't seen him yet, but I memorized the description Page gave me, and paranoia made me look for him on the street every time I left my apartment. It was hard not to feel like I was being watched and followed.
At first, we hesitated to tell Poppy about him. It was our job to keep her safe. She'd told us that she would know when it was time for her to go back to wherever she came from, but I had no idea if that would change with the arrival of the dangerous man. His appearance only added another layer of confusion to the whole situation. All we were sure of was that we had to keep Poppy away from him.
We decided to tell her, because Page and I had never believed in secrets between each other. We didn't want to keep secrets from Poppy, either. When we told her, she froze up and wouldn't talk to either of us for an entire day. She holed up in my bedroom and rubbed her charm bracelet vigorously until I was sure she'd rub away the words.
At the time this was all happening, Poppy couldn't tell us anything about Allen Reynolds or the man he really was. If she'd told us anything about him, it would have changed things along the timeline, and she didn't want to risk that. It was the reason she was so quiet and reserved with us in the first place. Fear was her motivator; it was the thing that kept her silent, the thing that kept her from telling us the truth about who she was. We didn't understand, at the time, but we didn't push her. Nothing about any of it made sense. Our lives had stopped making sense the day Poppy slammed into me on the sidewalk. But we were living with it, and slowly learning to accept it. Our only priority, our only concern, was to keep Poppy safe until she had to leave, whenever that time would come.
She'd been with us for two weeks. By some miracle, my roommates still hadn't discovered Poppy's presence in our apartment. They had busier social lives than me, and they liked to study for finals in the library or with their friends in other places around campus. When they were home, they were used to me being quiet and spending time in my room. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary to them, but I couldn't really believe what my life had become.
Page was the only thing that kept me grounded. It was still a small thrill to wake up in the morning and realize that we were together, that we had finally taken that step. There was a part of me that always thought we'd never get there. But if he felt the same way about me, there was nothing holding us back. When he came over during the rest of that second week, we kissed and we sat closer to each other and we held hands and he hugged me tighter, held me for longer. It was the one thing I was sure of in the mess with Poppy. Whatever happened, Page had always been by my side. The certainty of that was reinforced stronger than ever with our new relationship. It was a bright spot in the chaos. I felt safe with him, calmer. Even with the threat of Allen Reynolds now looming over our heads, Page was the strength that kept me standing.
During the rest of that week, I didn't have another bad day like I did at the beginning, but there were small moments scattered here and there, every time I thought of Poppy having to leave, every time I thought of Allen Reynolds showing up at my apartment door. Page was always there to pick me up and help me through it. We weathered the storm together. And the day after Poppy went silent and scared when we told her about Reynolds, we faced her together.
We were sitting in my room, wrapped in silence. The window was open to let in the spring breeze, and the sounds of the city came through the screen. But no one was speaking. It was early evening. Poppy was sitting in the corner, rubbing her bracelet. I'd been trying to make my way through a study guide for my last final, but I gave up after thoughts of Allen Reynolds took over my head. Page was next to me on my bed, staring at the wall, brows knitted in worry and contemplation. I knew he was thinking about Reynolds, too. Since we'd told Poppy earlier that morning, she hadn't said a word. We both knew it didn't mean anything good.
I took Page's hand to have something to hold onto. He squeezed my fingers in comfort.
I looked at Poppy and then back at Page, silently asking him to try to get her to speak. He was better at coaxing her; I was better at comforting her.
"Kid," he said gently, and Poppy looked up, her face on the edge of breaking down. "Can you tell us anything about this guy? Do you know him?"
Slowly, she nodded. She took a deep breath. "He's not supposed to be here." The words were so quiet, we both had to strain to hear them.
"Why is he after you?" Page asked, his tone gentle, not pressuring. Poppy shook her head, curling her legs against her chest. She wrapped her arms around her knees and held herself tightly. I got off the bed and went to her. The pull she had on me was magnetic. I always wanted to comfort her, to be there for her. I sat next to her on the floor and put my arms around her, and she leaned into me, burying her head in my shoulder. I looked at Page over the top of her head, and the look in his eyes was tortured.
"We'll keep you safe," I promised, stroking Poppy's hair.
"I'm sorry," she mumbled into my shirt. I clutched her tighter.
"No. Don't apologize. You have nothing to be sorry for." I didn't blame her for anything. I'd come to believe that she ran into me on the sidewalk that day for a reason. Even if I was still so clueless and I had no idea what the truth really was, I didn't blame Poppy for the turn my life had taken. I wouldn't have changed any part of it.
"If he's here, it means I have to leave soon," Poppy said quietly, and panic seized my heart like a fist, squeezing it tight. I looked at Page, and I was sure the expression on his face matched mine.
We had known all along that she was going to leave eventually, but we hadn't expected it to be so soon. Two weeks felt like nothing. It wasn't enough time with her. We wanted more; we wanted her to stay with us, as impossible and reckless as that seemed. We would have figured it out. We would have done anything.
"We can protect you," I said, keeping the desperation out of my voice. I held her a little tighter. "We won't let him get to you."
Poppy shook her head. "I have to go back home." Her eyes were wet, and I wiped stray tears from her cheeks, holding back my own.
"Let us help you," Page said, and Poppy shook her head.
"I have to do it alone," she said. My heart sunk in my chest. She'd told us this before – she'd warned us that when she went back to wherever she was from, we would have to let her go alone. But I didn't want to face it.
There were still so many unanswered questions, so many things we didn't know. It was too soon for things to end. She couldn't just leave. There was a part of me that thought, that hoped, that we'd get the answers we needed out of her, that she wouldn't just leave without telling us. But there was also a part of me that accepted all of this because deep down, somehow, I knew it was supposed to happen this way. Like I'd already experienced it before. It was that deja vu again. I was getting used to it with Poppy.
"When do you have to leave?" Page asked quietly, voicing the question I wanted to avoid. Poppy sniffled and rubbed her charm bracelet again.
"Tomorrow," she said after what felt like an eternity of silence. My lip trembled, and I put my hand over my mouth and blinked away tears. I took deep breaths and met Page's eyes again. His jaw was set, but his eyes were shining. That was one of the things I'd always loved about Page. He'd never been afraid to cry.
"Tomorrow," I repeated on a breath, and Poppy looked up at me, beautiful eyes wide and sorrowful. I instantly tried to smile. "Okay. What can we do? How can we help?" Because that was the only thing we could do. Help her in any way she needed.
Poppy was quiet for another few minutes. "You can . . . walk me there." But she sounded hesitant, brows drawn together in uncertainty.
We had no idea where 'there' was. It wasn't enough, but we had to take it.
"Okay," I said, stroking her hair. "We'll walk with you." I kissed the top of her head and held her for a few minutes, savoring it. If it was the last time I'd ever get to hug her, I wanted to hold on as tightly as I could, for as long as I could.
When I pulled away, Page got off the bed and came to sit with us. He hugged Poppy, too. He smiled and put Poppy's baseball cap on her head. "What should we do on our last night together?"
I tried not to cry again. Our last night together.
It was another few minutes before Poppy spoke, and Page took my hand. We held onto each other tightly.
"Can you take me back to the cliff?" Poppy asked quietly, eyes on the ground. Horizon Peak. She wanted to go back to Horizon Peak.
It didn't matter that it was evening, and that it would take us a while to get there. It didn't matter that it would be dark out by the time we arrived. We would take her there. We would've given her anything she wanted, anything she asked for.
"Of course," Page said, and I smiled and nodded. Poppy gave us a small, sad smile back, and my heart broke all over again.
I didn't know how I was supposed to say goodbye to her.
So we took her to Horizon Peak. We went down to the beach with her, and the three of us sat there, picking out stones and collecting shells and sticking our toes in the sand, letting the water wash over our feet. We didn't talk, but conversation wasn't needed. We were just spending time with each other, reveling in each other's company until we would have to let Poppy go. We went back up to the cliff and we stood there, the three of us, an impossible family. We counted stars and pointed out constellations. We stayed there until Poppy fell asleep. And then Page carried her to his car, and we drove back to my apartment. Page and I tucked Poppy into my bed and curled up together on the couch, holding each other tight. We didn't want to sleep because we knew that when we woke up, it would be time. It was too soon for both of us.
"Are we really just gonna let her go?" I asked Page, leaning my head on his shoulder. He sighed heavily, and I could feel how much he wanted to say no, how much he wanted to reassure me that there was some way we could work things out, some way we could keep Poppy with us. But Page had always been there to pull my head out of the clouds when it mattered. I liked living in my fantasy worlds, but when I started to deny reality, Page was always there to bring me back to earth and remind me of the real world. And he was always there to guide me through it.
"We have to," he told me gently. "I don't want to, either. But we have to."
"It's just . . . ." But I couldn't finish the sentence.
"I know," Page said. He kissed the side of my head, and then he kissed my lips. "I know."
Eventually, we did fall asleep. And when we woke up, Poppy was standing there, dressed in the same exact outfit she was wearing when I first met her: silver rain coat, jeans, pink rain boots, and her baseball cap with the strange symbol. Her hair was in braids.
Her face was calm and serious, resigned. But I could see a light in her eyes. She was excited. She was going home. To her family. To us, in the future.
We barely spoke. Page and I got ready, and then we each took one of Poppy's hands and left the apartment with her. Cautiously, Page and I took turns looking up and down the street, searching for Allen Reynolds. Poppy was stiff between us, and I knew it was because she was afraid that he would show up.
She lead us a few blocks away, to the spot where she slammed into me on the sidewalk two weeks ago. She lead us further down the street and turned us into an alleyway.
Page and I looked at each other, confused. There was nothing here, but Poppy was staring at the ground, rubbing her charm bracelet. Her lip trembled, and then suddenly, she hugged us both tight, squeezing me first and then Page.
And then she said, "When I leave, you'll forget me. You'll forget everything that happened."
"No." That didn't seem possible. How could I ever forget Poppy? She changed my life. She was a part of me, and she always would be.
"Don't worry," she said, giving us both a watery smile. "You'll see me again. Someday."
"What?" I shook my head again, not understanding anything. "Poppy, what's – "
"Turn around," she said, and I don't know why, but I did. Page did, too. It was the hardest thing I'd ever done, but I did it, because Poppy asked me to.
"Goodbye," she whispered, and I shook my head, more confused than ever. None of this made any sense. It wasn't supposed to end like this. We couldn't just let her go like this, when there was still so much we didn't know.
Page took my hand and squeezed it. I saw my own confusion and desperation mirrored on his face.
There was a noise behind us, and when I couldn't take it anymore and I turned around, I saw a fading light. Poppy was gone.
I shook my head again, the confusion and strangeness of the situation making me panicky and anxious. "I don't understand," I said. Where had she gone? She couldn't have just disappeared.
Time travel hadn't been made possible yet, and we had no idea how she could've possibly gone. During the year time travel was invented, when Poppy was two years old, Page and I both got flashbacks. Pieces of the puzzle started to come together one by one as we learned the mechanics of it, how the technology worked, Sola, Poppy's microchip and her charm bracelet. But at that moment, standing in that alleyway, it was like we were watching a movie. It didn't seem real, and we couldn't understand it. But our minds slowly started to accept it, like we'd accepted every other confusing thing about Poppy over the last two weeks.
I turned to Page, opening my mouth to say something, but what came out was a sob. He put his arms around me and held me, and I sagged against him, feeling my heart break inside my chest. Poppy was gone.
"She said we'd see her again," Page whispered. And I felt that we would, deep down. In my heart I knew that we would see her again. But at that moment, I would've given anything to spend one more minute with her in the present.
When we left the alleyway and started the walk back to my apartment, we moved slowly, holding hands and not speaking. Neither of us knew what to say, how to handle this. We were both mourning the loss of Poppy, in our own way.
And then we ran into Allen Reynolds.
He was across the street from my apartment, staring at my front door. Page saw him first, and I felt him stiffen. When I looked across the street, Page didn't have to tell me – I knew right away that the man in the black suit was Allen Reynolds, and that he was there for Poppy. A savage sense of satisfaction and righteousness dried the tears on my face. He couldn't get to her. She was gone. It was a small comfort, knowing that she was safe from him. If she had to leave us, at least he couldn't get to her.
When Allen Reynolds saw us across the street, without Poppy, his face morphed into an expression of cold fury. And I smiled. We'd kept our promise. We'd kept Poppy safe, and the bad people wouldn't reach her. Page tightened his hand in mine.
"Who do you think he really is?" he asked.
"I don't know," I said. We wouldn't figure it out until much later, like everything else.
The last we saw of Allen Reynolds for eight years was the sight of him glaring at us from across the street. We went inside my apartment and closed the door on him. We closed the door on our time with Poppy.
And we went on with our lives. We spent the rest of that day silently mourning Poppy's glaring absence, trying to patch up the gaping hole she'd left in both of us. But even as we thought about it, the hole started to repair itself, and our memories of her started to fade. We tried to hold onto them, but there was a way to these things that couldn't be helped, a natural consequence of time travel and its effects. It didn't take very long. The next morning, it felt like waking up from a dream.
And so we went on with our lives.
The future was waiting for us.

UPC sees rising number of Internet customers
In the last quarter, the number of Internet customers UPC quite seen rising, with nearly 17,000 new Internet customers. The total number of customers fell, but that was mainly due to a decrease in the number of analogue TV viewers; something the cable companies have endured times.
UPC logo UPC now has nearly 1.1 million Internet customers, a total of 1.6 million customers. That shows the quarterly figures of the cable company. According to UPC, the increase in the number of Internet customers the largest increase in two years. In addition, the company has 1.1 million digital TV viewers, as well as approximately 990,000 VoIP users. The total number of subscriptions to the telecom provider is thus amounts to 3.7 million; 7200 subscriptions over the previous quarter.
The total number of UPC customers increased by approximately 16,000 off. This is mainly because the cable company 22,500 analog TV viewers lost. That is a problem where Ziggo is facing: analog TV viewers swap their old TV subscription, but opt for a replacement contract with a different provider. At present, UPC still about half a million subscribers with analog TVs.
Earlier this year it was announced that the parent company of UPC, Liberty Global, Ziggo competitor wants to take over. Despite the fact that the European authorities probably want to do further research on the acquisition of the cable company expects the acquisition to be completed. Still in the second half of 2014 According to Reuters, is the EU's concerns about competition in the Dutch cable market, in spite of UPC and Ziggo not compete directly with each other.
Furthermore, UPC argues that the deployment of WiFi Spots, which UPC customers can access the Internet through the routers of other customers, nearing completion; There are over 500,000 hotspots available. The figures also show that the UPC company during the quarter had a revenue of $ 318 million; slightly more than $ 315 million a year earlier. That translates into 228.3 million.

Here is Robert Pattinson looking simultaneously suave and bad ass in the teaser trailer for 'Cosmopolis', a film by Canada's best achievement David Cronenberg.
When going to see The Pirates! An Adventure with Scientists, the latest stop motion feature from the homegrown studio Aardman Animation, I expected brilliant animation, pop culture references, awful pirate-y puns and much more besides. Although The Pirates may do less heart string pulling than the famed Wallace and Gromit shorts, it is undeniably Aardman's most hilarious foray onto the big screen yet, complete with an irreplaceable British sense of humour.
An adaptation of Gideon Coe's book, the film follows the aptly named Pirate Captain (Hugh Grant) in his quest for the prestigious 'Pirate of the Year' award. Along the way he meets a scrawny scientist named Charles Darwin (David Tennant), graces the presence of arch nemesis to pirates everywhere Queen Victoria (Imelda Staunton) whilst having to handle his crew: the faithful Number Two (Martin Freeman), the Surprisingly Curvaceous Pirate (Ashley Jensen), states-the-obvious Pirate with Gout (Brendan Gleeson) and Peg Leg Hastings (Lenny Henry). If those names failed to even raise an eyebrow then there's something wrong with you.
With regards to the humour, I'm reminded of something Jerry Zucker once said about the making of Airplane!, that it was like trying to cram as many toys in a closet and then closing the door without them all falling out. From the opening shot, Aardman fervently swings this gag door open as the camera pans backwards to reveal the 'London 1837' sign is actually being held by a cleaner desperate to get into shot. Fans of Monty Python, absurdism and 'anti-jokes' will appreciate the intelligent humour of the film, not to say that it can't be enjoyed by audiences of any age or indeed fans of Aardmans previous works. I'm already eagerly anticipating the Blu Ray release so I can pause and take in subtle jokes like bananas having Tesco labels on them, and a million other gags I must've missed. The soundtrack too – an eclectic mix of britpop, punk, reggae – help elevate the Pirates from a standard nautical parody to something that is profoundly charming and quintessentially British.
Maybe it's the back-to-back Kubrick references, or the Blue Peter badge on one of the crew's hats, or Brian Blessed's pirate Elvis, or the monkey butler, or The Elephant Man sharing a pint with Jane Austen that makes The Pirates! such an infectiously feel good comedy. In fact, it's the result of some of the hardest working and most thoughtful filmmakers in Britain.

The CUNY Nursing School Survey - page 3
hello nurses or nurses-to-be!!! iam new to this site and iam seriously considering to go to nursing school; the only problem is that i am not sure which cuny school to go to!!!!:uhoh3: everyone... Read More
Apr 25, '06I attend La Guardia and am enjoying the program although intense, but manageable if you are dedicated. I know that it's a very respected program and they have a 100% NCLEX passing rate.
May 2, '06hi im graduating from hunter this year and i think it's a pretty good program. most of the profs are really good and really care about the students. i think every nursing program has its weaknesses, but clinical skill preparation is not hunter's weakness. in the end, you get what you put in. i think i learned a lot and while no program will prepare you completely for the real world, hunter does try hard. i also think going to a private school for nursing is a waste of money. i got scholarships that pretty much made my education free, and i already got a couple of job offers. PM any specific questions you have!
May 31, '06BMCC sucked. All the professors arrived late, let you leave early and you basically teach yourself everything while they suply the rumor mill - look for something better!
Jun 27, '06CUNY Kingsborough CC in Brooklyn is a good program. The instructors and clinicals were great. No real complaints here. I feel confident that they prepared me well to be a safe and competent RN. The NCLEX pass rates are yearly above 90% and another good barometer of the program is that the incoming seats keep increasing. The most recent incoming class was 100 students. Study hard for the prereqs and do well as this will be a good measure of acceptance and success in the program. Even though it is a 2 year program, my classmates (NUR Program, not the other classes) were some of the brightest people I have met. Many have BS in other fields, some were ex premeds, some were advance science degree holders in other countries. In conclusion, I would recommend this program to anyone.
Jun 30, '06I am attending Bronx Community College. Older student going for LPN starting in fall, I have an associates degree already, Going LPN to RN gateway. I should have gone straight to RN but was nervous about being out of school so long. Anyway it is very competitive, the classes fill up fast so you have to jump on the registration quick and the nursing dept is like 0 help. Basically your on your own Oh well we will see how it goes, anyway after I get my LPN I am thinking of leaving and going to Cochran in Yonkers or MT Vernon Hospital both of which have an accelerated LPN to RN program. It was so hard to get in the LPN program i don't know if I want to go through that again.

Interview Conducted by Kyrus Keenan Westcott
A Certified School Psychologist, Dr. Kasey M. Black is an expert in working with children with school-related academic and behavioral difficulties, including specific learning disabilities, autism-spectrum disorders, and attentional concerns. We have asked her 15 frequently asked questions in her field of expertise, both professional and personal. As a result, we are hoping that you will have better understanding of her field, and that you will also have a better understanding of our staff here at ACES.
QUESTION 1: How long have you been a psychologist?
Dr. Black: I have been working as a school psychologist for six years.
QUESTION 2: Where did you study psychology?
Dr. Black: I majored in psychology and minored in education as an undergraduate student at Haverford College and then earned my Master's and Doctorate degrees in school psychology at Penn State (main campus).
QUESTION 3: What made you decide that psychology was something you wanted to do?
Dr. Black: I took a college course in psychology at the local community college during the summer between my junior and senior high school years to see if I liked it because they didn't offer anything like that at my high school. After the first class, I was completely hooked!
QUESTION 4: You work mostly with children. Why did you choose to focus on children as opposed to adults?
Dr. Black: I am a school psychologist, so my work concerns learning disabilities, giftedness, autism, and other disorders that affect learning. These issues are very commonly first addressed in children, but there is the rare occasion that we will have an adult with a question regarding whether such an issue exists and had been overlooked during his or her childhood. Therefore, my work primarily concerns children by default, but I also work with some adults on occasion.
QUESTION 5: If a parent feels as though their child's learning skills are regressing, what should they do?
Dr. Black: The first step would be to talk with the teacher to see if any environmental variables may be contributing. Also, the child's teacher typically can help the parent determine some initial interventions. However, if such interventions do not appear to change the trajectory of the student's learning, a conversation with a school psychologist would be warranted.
QUESTION 6: You specialize in working with children with autism. How common is autism among children in this country?
Dr. Black: According to the most recent statistics from the CDC, 1 in 88 children is diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder.
QUESTION Question 7: What causes autism?
Dr. Black: Very controversial question… The most recent research shows that a combination of genetic and environmental influences is the most likely cause of autism. Previous allegations of certain vaccines and foods being the cause of autism have largely been debunked.
QUESTION 8: What does it mean when a child is "on the spectrum"?
Dr. Black: Autism is short for autism-spectrum disorders, which include difficulties with social communication, stereotyped mannerisms, and certain behavioral patterns.
QUESTION 9: If a child is diagnosed with autism, can they still attend school?
Dr. Black: Absolutely! Because autism is a spectrum, some students may be very high functioning. In fact, many prominent figures in our society are said to have some type of autism spectrum disorder. In the event that your child is low functioning, most schools today have certain programs that serve the behavioral and academic needs of all students.
QUESTION 10: Can autism be cured?
Dr. Black: While there is no cure for autism, we can teach students methods of coping with their weaknesses. I like to think of children with autism as students whose social skills are not learned naturally; rather, we have to directly teach them how to interact socially. Once taught, especially for those who are taught at a young age, many such autistic characteristics can subside and occur less frequently.
QUESTION 11: What is your favorite book?
Dr. Black: "Of Mice & Men" by John Steinbeck
QUESTION 12: If you could vacation anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Dr. Black: I recently returned from vacationing in Italy with my family, and it was fabulous! Great food, beautiful architecture, and such history!
QUESTION 13: What do you like to do in your free time?
Dr. Black: Read, go running, cook, or just hang out with my family.
QUESTION 14: What advice would you give aspiring child psychologists?
Dr. Black: My advice would be to explore all of the different types of psychology with children available. Many people are unaware of the field of school psychology, which is unfortunate. Seeking out local school psychologists and other types of psychologists to learn about what they do on a daily basis may be helpful for aspiring psychologists to determine the direction of their education.
QUESTION 15: How do you like working at ACES Psychology?
Dr. Black: I absolutely LOVE our ACES family! Each staff member is incredibly friendly, respectful, and helpful. There is not another group of professionals with whom I would rather work!

The last few weeks have been rough. James has had one of those important visits from some important corporate person hanging over his head. It's been postponed and postponed again. Which sometimes is fine in the short-term–like the days when he would have had to put in an extra several hours on top of a full shift, he ends up home in time for dinner–but as the weeks have dragged on, there are more days than not when we barely have time to communicate the very basics of household activities. Did the kid eat? Are the dishes clean? Do you need any pants washed?
Needless to say, we haven't had much quality time together. Which leaves me feeling a little lonely. I've been missing a lot of my friends. I've been trying to do something that makes me feel better about our situation. That being, me waiting for James to have some time not only for me, but for himself. He had been doing very well with his physical fitness and determination to meet certain goals he'd set out for himself. Now, though, with all that's happening at his store, it seems like we've landed back in purgatory. And here I am again, the disappointed optimist.
I'm trying to figure out what I can do to change our circumstances while James works. I applied for a job I probably don't have a chance at getting. I am racking my brain to think of ways to cut the spending budget. The only income increase I can hope for is that I get some extra hours tossed my way soon. Or some freelance work comes in. I am feeling burdened and trapped. And I feel like the only one carrying the weight.
I have some ideas. But it's not going to be easy. And I can't do it alone.
The sun is shining. M rode his bike very well this morning and had fun, and James will be home for dinner. Maybe we can come up with some plans together.

When I was a caterer, I had dozens of systems. I had them in writing for everyone to read. I had them on the walls, in the delivery vans and even as reminders in payroll envelopes. They were very important to me. Since it was I who spent great amounts of time gathering the ideas and working hard on making them both logical and efficient, I absolutely made them rules for everyone to follow. In fact, many of them became laws—usually when they weren't being followed as systems. The truth is, most of my systems, or laws, were so complex and single-minded that many of them never really had a chance for success.
To prevent losing equipment at events, I developed an elaborate coloring, numbering and packing system that was, in my mind, foolproof. Unfortunately, it was flawed from the get-go. But, because I had the system in place, I stuck to it. I made everyone stick to it because the system made me feel like I had more control. What I've learned is that when putting catering systems in place, the ends don't always justify the means. Most systems become too difficult to follow fully right from the start, especially with the impromptu chaos of a normal catering day.
Too often systems are created to create accountability. Whose fault was it? Accountability isn't a bad thing, but accountability needs to be a self-guided principle, with staff members recognizing errors themselves, rather than getting a "failure notice" in a system of checks and balances.
The actual time spent on creating a system can delay the solution of the concern itself. For example, suppose items seem to be missing from inventory at a caterer's commissary or warehouse. An elaborate system of enhanced inventory procedures could be created—or you could simply install surveillance cameras.
Good systems have two things in common: They are simple and easy to complete and they are created and endorsed by the team of people who need to make them work, rather than by just one result oriented leader. I've come to believe that systems, when it's appropriate to have them, need to be democratic rather than autocratic.

LOL - Living Our Legacy (Part 6)
Opening gifts is fun, isn't it? So, let's open another gift for our Christian home. This gift truly is a gift. It's the gift of WORSHIP.
Worshiping God is a gift – especially here in America – because we have the freedom to worship, without fear of harm. But, worship doesn't have to be, and actually shouldn't be, limited to the walls of the a certain building or limited to one or two days a week. Worship should be part of our lives each and every day.
When you have children in your home, they see your example. They know if you are spending time in Bible study and in prayer. They see what fills up your time. But, when you take the time to worship God daily, through prayer, through study and meditation, and let them in on that worship, they are learning to worship God daily. They're not seeing just a "two or three times a week and I'm done" attitude about worshiping Our Heavenly Father. And, when they see you being a servant as we've already talked about, you're setting the example of Jesus before their eyes. Grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, neighbors, co-workers – all of them can be examples of this and you can be that example to others.
Of course, it's important to worship with your church family. Jesus established the church for a reason and for a purpose. As Christians, we are each of us are a part of that purpose. And part of that purpose it to be workers in the kingdom. Another part of it is to encourage each other. So, don't neglect that part of worshipping together with your Christian family, but don't neglect God at home, either.
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.
Romans 12:1Live a legacy of daily worship.

Chipotle Chicken and Tomato Soup
Just one chipotle chile (canned smoked jalapeño pepper) adds smoky heat to this top-rated soup. If you want to tame the spice, substitute 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika for the chile.
How to Make It
Combine first 5 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Partially mash tomatoes and beans with a potato masher. Stir in chicken; cook 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat; stir in oil. Place 1 1/4 cups soup in each of four bowls. Top each serving with 2 tablespoons sour cream and 1 tablespoon cilantro.

terrapinstation's Review
i made this recipe with a bit of apprehension as i was not confident that these simple ingredients could come together so quickly to make such a delicious soup. i was wrong! it was outstanding. i used black beans instead of navy as that was what i had in the house, and i used my immersion blender instead of a potato masher to thicken up the soup. thinking i could omit the olive oil next time to make it less caloric. deeeeelish!!!!
TGLyons's Review
I made it with pork rib meat and it was fantastic!!

I followed the recipe exactly-it is a tasty recipe!
AdeleD's Review
Very good. My only alteration was a can of tomatoes with green chiles instead of the stewed tomatoes and the chipotle pepper and added a bit of dehydrated onion to the simmering soup. I also used brown rice in the bottom of each bowl to cut the spiciness a bit and crunched up corn chips for the topping along with the sour cream. I will make this again.

daneanp's Review
Yum. Doubled the recipe, but only used 1 chile - I think we could do 2 next time. I poached the chicken in the stock first, then cubed it up. I also added 3/4 cup of chopped yellow onion which I sauted in 1 tablespoon of olive oil for 5 minutes before adding everything in. Used 1 can of black beans and 1 can of pinto beans. It went together very quickly; perfect for a work night. Looking forward to leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

Hello! I decided to write this poem because I was touched by the lyrics from 'Never Be Alone' by Shawn Mendes: 'When you fall asleep tonight just remember that we lay under the same stars'. Once again, I wrote this poem with no idea what would come out of the pen next. Stars are my favourite thing and I never really knew why. Writing this poem helped me to understand why I love stars so much.
Mendes Thoughts
There are no words that I could use
That do justice to the beauty of stars.
I've finally figured out why,
Stars are my favourite thing.
I believe people can be born,
With a star for their soul.
My mother is living proof of this,
She has an everlasting glow,
That only my eyes can see.
I'm always trying to look up more,
To see the best thing our universe offers:
Like the stars, the moon, the sky.
Clouds feel like my friends-
We both get grey and stormy
But we are full of sunshine too.
Clouds are my touchstone,
At least I know they won't leave me.
Even when I die- I shall rest in the clouds.
If we were to divide the world,
I'd give you the sun, the flowers,
The oceans, the trees
As long as I have the stars,
The sky, the moon, the clouds.
I don't need the sun
I already have every other star.
Stars could end wars
If people just looked up
At the peaceful blanket of hope
That watches us while we sleep-
Wherever we are, lost or alone.
Everybody lays or stands
Under the sky that is everywhere,
The sky that unites us.
It is not hard to recognise,
How truly beautiful our sky is.
At eighteen I will go afar,
To seek a better life
To explore away from here.
I am scared to be alone
Without my mother's hand.
There will be no one.
But I will remember-
That we lay under the same stars.
I'll never be alone.
I worry when you'll die
Who will be there?
No one knows me
In the way that you do.
Looking up at the night sky-
I know you'll be there
You'll be the brightest star
And you'll make me fall in love-
With the night,
All over again.
I hope you enjoyed it!
Love, Sydney

…come together
As we all cool down from two weeks of political discourse, I can't think of a better random holiday than International Day of Friendship (not to be confused with Friendship Day, which is August 7).
And perhaps carry that spirit of friendship and bridge building into the rest of this presidential campaign? Okay, it's a big ask, but we can hope.paired with National Dance Day, it's the perfect excuse to take a moment to appreciate your friends near and far, and bust a move.
Either way, take a moment for friends near and far today, and maybe a moment for National Dance Day too. 🙂

Donkey Riding – Bringing You to Ottawa's Best Beer
In my view, there are notably few good reasons to wake up early on a Saturday morning. Saturday mornings are sacred to me – one of the few times I can revel in the awesomeness that is stretching out in a fresh morning's bed and put off the day's agenda for a few glorious hours of extra sleep. Yet, when I was recently asked to be the MC on Brew Donkey's Eastern Ontario Tasting Tour, which I knew meant no sleeping-in until noon that day, I excitedly accepted.
For those of you beer-lovers unfamiliar with Brew Donkey, you'll want to become acquainted very soon. Owned and operated by local craft beer fan, and enthusiastic host, Brad Campeau, Brew Donkey is helping to make Ottawa-Valley craft beer more accessible, by bringing the beer to you and you to the beer. Started as a home delivery service, Brew Donkey now lists over 50 different beers from 6 local breweries (and growing), most of which are only available at the breweries themselves. Because of this, you can sample some of the best that the Ottawa-area has to offer, without the massive amount of driving required to visit all the breweries. Although, if it's a visit you're interested in, Brew Donkey has you covered there too.
The Brew Donkey bus arrived at the second pickup location, the LCBO at Rideau and King Edward, around 10:30, where I had been waiting along with some of the other participants. There was a sense of excitement in the group, consisting of beer lovers and non-beer lovers of all ages, though few knew what to expect from either of our destinations that day; first Cassel Brewery, in Casselman, and then Beau's All Natural, in Vankleek Hill.
My role on the tour was to give a bit of an overview of the history of beer and the process of brewing while we were en route to Casselman. I half expected my talk to be lost in a clamor of rowdy passengers getting ready for a wild day when I set out. To the contrary, there seemed to be a lot of genuine interest in the subject matter, which continued through many conversations as the day went on. With a great deal of support from Brad, who is a natural on the mic, it felt like we reached our first stop in no time at all.
Cozy and very welcoming, Cassel Brewery made up for their limited space with their friendly and passionate staff. We were split into two groups, with one half ushered into the brewhouse while the other perused the storefront. Whether you were learning about Cassel's brewing process or checking out their glassware, there was no shortage of samples. From what I could tell, their Caboose #3 IPA really won over the crowd, and few of us left there empty-handed. I picked up some of their Sleeper Car Double Chocolate Porter and another glass for my own
obsession collection.
After a great start to the day, it was time to go. Thankfully for those among us who sampled more thoroughly, lunch available on the next leg of the journey – and what a lunch it was. The folks at Murray Street prepared a fantastic meal using some delicious house-made ingredients. No matter if you chose the vegetarian or omnivorous option, their grainy mustard was well worth the price of admission.
Next stop Beau's – and on a Saturday in FeBREWary, no less.
If you've never been to Beau's brewery before, your first words upon entering might be something along the lines of "woaah". I saw more than a few people in our group standing with looks of wonder or childish grins as we entered. I was even a bit taken aback, having not been to the brewery in over three years. This place is to the beer lover as the ball room at IKEA is to a kid – alive with noise, colour and so much to explore. On the left as you enter is the brewery, where small-group guided tours were running all afternoon, with lively and knowledgeable guides. On the right, there's all the Beau's swag – from clothing to glassware. And then there's straight ahead… the beer fridge and the taps. Can you guess which one most people hit first?
As I mentioned above, it was a Saturday in FeBREWary, which meant that Beau's was releasing a new beer. This weekend was Ellsmere's Regret, a chocolate-marshmallow and hemp Milk Stout, for which they also organized a good old-fashioned bonfire and marshmallow roast (which I regrettably didn't get a chance to try). I really enjoyed the beer, in particular the cask version that they tapped for the occasion. On draught, Ellsmere's Regret was served a bit too cold to discern a lot of the flavours, but the cask version was tremendous. Supported by another dozen taps and a few specialty bottles from the Greener Futures Project, you really couldn't ask for much more.
As we headed home, I sat back all warm in my new Beau's toque and fought off sleep, while the party continued in the back of the bus. This Brew Donkey tour had been a memorable experience for me – a day filled with great people, great, local, craft beer and great experiences.
Brad's witty and energetic personality creates a fun atmosphere on the tour that seemed to resonate with everyone. I admire his dedication to, not just supporting local craft brewers, but also to giving his customers the opportunity to appreciate and learn more about craft beer.
If you're a beer lover or you know one, or maybe you're just beer-curious, I would highly recommend taking a ride on the Brew Donkey bus. It really is worth waking up before noon on a Saturday. For more info about tours visit Brew Donkey's website or follow @brewdonkeyOTT on twitter.

Generally, I do not like pork. But I always love mushrooms.
Roast pork topped with mushroom stuffing? The dilema!
Go on then :).
With roast potatoes, Brussel sprouts and red cabbage.
And then it was time for night #2 of drinks and socializing with long-lost Cleveland friends. I get the feeling it's going to be a bit of a theme this week! Which will be fine as long as I remember that shots of Crown Royal are never a good idea.
Not even if you topped them with mushroom stuffing.
Ew. Louisa Bell comes home tonight! The whole Phillips fam will be together again :).

(This is a review of the first two episodes of COMMUNITY season six, which are available now for cheap as free at Yahoo Screen via their website, an app on iOS and Android, or also through Apple TV, Roku and Xbox)
COMMUNITY has been dodging bullets Matrix style since its inception, with ratings lower than Greendale's national academic ranking; from losing (but then re-gaining) creative overlord, Dan Harmon, to a steady trickle of original cast members graduating onto other ventures, including some sloppy behind the scenes drama, this is a show that has faced constant hurdles, taken out a bazooka and montaged its way through the destruction of every last one of them. This is the show that pisses off Britta's escaped and bloodthirsty cat because it laughs at a feline's measly nine lives. This is the show who Chumbawamba's "Tubthumping" was written about.
Even last year when a bullet finally struck the heart, fired from the guns of top NBC brass, canceling the show after five miraculous and creatively explosive seasons (if we sort of forget about the Harmon-less Season 4), COMMUNITY rebuilt itself yet again, funded by Yahoo and its desire to break into the streaming TV biz that's so in mode these days. Which, for the record, I'm totally down with.
Basically, this season six premiere (and beyond) shouldn't exist. But the internet joke-turned-prophecy of #sixseasonsandamovie somehow has written this miraculous timeline into existence–where COMMUNITY gets allowed to continue years past it's expected sell-by-date, darkest timeline be damned. So, is the show still any good? Is it still funnny? Is it still totally streets ahead?
Yes, yes and definitely yes. It is, however, a different show than the one it started out as.
When newcomer Frankie Dart (Paget Brewster) shows up to the study-group-turned-committee as a hard-nosed administrator seeking to trim some serious fat and enact changes at the college, the rest of the group rears back in terror. Except for Abed, whom everyone assumes will take her ch-ch-ch-changes hardest; he's the only one not to stamp her as an evil replacement of the recently spun-off Shirley (who, by the by, is down in the swamps of Atlanta now serving as the personal chef for a brilliant but troubled detective).
He and Frankie have a heart-to-heart in the first episode's most meta moment where they both acknowledge that all good things, especially TV, have to change. The show realizes this is essential and the first episode back eases its characters into that realization as well, and, through that, it's hoping the audience will follow suit. When Britta and Abed try to mimic Troy and Abed's secret handshake, it brings zero joy to them and it shouldn't to us viewers either. Everyone is moving on and into this new dean-mension of COMMUNITY–one that maintains the tone and creative insanity of its past life, but attempts to evolve around and beyond its circumstances.
The cold open for the first episode back, "Ladders," is a little slice of genius in merging the old with the new. The cafeteria roof collapses after one too many frisbees are tossed up there–including the very first one by a long-haired Leonard when Greendale was dubbing itself a "Computer College"–and the whole place has to be renovated. First, it's a plot device that nicely covers up the fact that the move from NBC to Yahoo meant abandoning all the old sets and reconstructing them in new spaces, which meant some slight cosmetic changes (ie: the cafeteria now has large beams in its ceiling). More importantly though, it highlights the history of this place, both fictional and real, and made me realize how much my heart missed everything about Greendale Community College.
Yes, I missed the characters–and I sometimes still pine for Donald Glover to return as Troy, if only because I want it for Abed's sake–but while the characters we have loved from season one, episode one are huge portions of the show's lifeblood, Greendale itself is the strange other dimension that draws these–as Frankie encapsulates the themes of the place–"weird, passionate and gross" people together.
And Frankie, for all her by-the-books boring-ness, manages to fit into Greendale just fine so far. With the rest of the cast growing more unhinged as the seasons have progressed, she is a nice balance of straight man and quirky misfit–a prerequisite to hang with this gang.
As for the other new addition: Keith David's Elroy Patashnik, who shows up in the second new outing, "Lawnmower Maintenance and Postnatal Care," also fits that bill. With only a few scenes under his belt so far it's harder to make a judgement call on how he will slot into the group dynamic. At least his addition should help Chang rest easy after he voiced his concerns with, "Are any of you white people noticing what's happening to this group?!"
I could go on from here and just list all the funny, brilliant bits from these episodes ("And Jesus wept!" "Jimmy Fallon syndrome." "I'm Sorry" montage!)…but I won't I'm excited to have COMMUNITY back, but i'm ecstatic to find the magic is still in the wands of everyone involved. Also, you can take a class called "Magic Wands." Because this is Greendale, and it's a place not many people escape. But, really, why would you want to?
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to watch some Portuguese Gremlins.

Over the past few years I found myself wondering what it would be like when Brett Favre retired. Not just the following season with Aaron Rodgers or Tim Couch whoever starting at quarterback and getting hurt every fifth game, but the day news of his retirement came out.
Here's how: I'm sitting in my office when one of our sales reps comes into my office and says "Guess we'll be drafting a quarterback, huh?" Not being a morning person, and having just read a Favre-less Journal Sentinel online, I didn't make the connection and thought I'd missed the story where Rodgers had gotten hurt mowing his lawn. But he explained it to me, and then the emails, IMs, shouts over the cubicle walls, etc., started pouring in. It wasn't as surreal as I thought it'd be.
No sense in analyzing this, as a million people already have. Why did he do it? Did Ted Thompson force him out? What does Travis Jervey think about it? All interesting questions if you have an endless amount of time to obsess over it.
It does surprise me. It wouldn't have surprised me last year or the year before, when he was coming off marginal to bad seasons on marginal to bad teams. He played well in 2007, his last pass notwithstanding, and the Packers are the youngest team in the league.
Here are my top Favre memories:
-The day Ron Wolf traded for him, I was watching one of Andy's basketball games at St. Mary's in West Bend, and my dad and one of the other parents asked this sports nerd what he knew about him. "Big arm, gunslinger, had a few feet of intestines removed in college," I said.
-Early in his career, when he would send my dad into alternating fits of joy and madness, I often thought that Don Majkowski could have been just as effective in Mike Holmgren's system. Blasphemy, but there's the opinion.
-I was working at Pick 'n Save when he threw that bomb back across the field to Sterling Sharpe at the Silverdome to beat the Lions in the playoffs. Big arm, indeed.
-Hill always called him "Bart Farve" and "cheater" on account of the vicodin addiction.
-A girl who worked with me at Pick 'n Save told me I looked like Favre. You can't see it now, but 17 years ago it wasn't that far-fetched. Maybe she had a thing for me.
-There was a time when Favre had been in the league for a few years and he was still younger than the Badgers' starting quarterback, Darrell Bevell.
-Favre's reaction after throwing that early touchdown to Andre Rison in the Super Bowl win over New England was priceless, made us all remember why we play and love to follow sports.
-I was at Lambeau for the game I thought would end his consecutive-games played streak, when Lavar Arrington just about ripped him in half. That's one tough sonofabitch we had there.
-Could have sworn his last game was the win over the Bears at Soldier Field last New Year's Eve.
Just hope we don't have to see what it's like to be a Bears, Lions or Vikings fan and start every season with a different guy under center. I've got faith in Thompson, although if it is ever definitively proven that he chased my favorite player of all time to his lawn mower before before he was 100% ready, that faith will forever be shaken.
Great career, Brett, thanks for making Sundays fun.

HERSHEY — There was no panic, no wholesale changes, no rethinking of strategy after Blake Barrick suffered a loss a week ago in the sectional finals.
The Big Spring senior simply affirmed that wrestling to his style, for a full six minutes, would be enough to ascend one spot on the medal podium during the District 3 Individual Wrestling Championships.
That steady course proved to be the right one Saturday at Hershey's Giant Center, where Barrick picked up his second straight district title by claiming a tough 3-2 win over Cedar Cliff's Donovon Ball in the 182-pound bracket in Class 3A.
Ball, a strong wrestler from neutral, had gotten the best of Barrick at sectionals with a late takedown; this time, Barrick closed off the on-the-feet opportunities.
"I just had to keep him tied up," Barrick said. "Last week, I had him tied up for five-and-a-half minutes. Then he scored in the last 20 or 30 seconds. I just knew that I had to keep him tied up and he wouldn't be able to score on me."
The key for the Bulldog was scoring the opening takedown, something he had been unable to do in the duo's first meeting.
He was able to circle and drive in the opening minute of the bout, setting up a lead that allowed him to dictate pace. Of the next two periods, only six seconds would see one wrestler with control. The physical pair slugged it out in close quarters over that time, neither coming close to a takedown.
"He's a tough guy," Barrick said. "They're grinders. I'm physical, he's physical, and we were throwing some clubs out there and we were getting into each other's faces. It's fun, it's rough, and it's wrestling."
Both wrestlers will move on to the state tournament, where they will be placed on opposite sides of the bracket. Barrick will be making his second trip to states and is hunting his first medal.
"It's the goal right now," Barrick said. "Nothing else matters. The top of the podium at states is where I want to be. That's what I'm working for these next two weeks. I'm ready to go."
Wilson defends title
JJ Wilson has heaps of postseason experience and an excellent big-match track record.
That doesn't mean the Cedar Cliff junior was taking anything for granted while hunting his second straight district title.
"Everybody was like, 'What are you going to do when you win?'" Wilson said. "I was like, 'You gotta wrestle first, guys.' Everybody's tough now, everybody's a good kid to wrestle."
It turned out Wilson and his friends were both right.
The Colt veteran did indeed snare that second district gold with a win at 120, and to get it he had to beat Carlisle sophomore Rafael Portilla, a returning state qualifier riding a hot streak over the tourney's first two days.
Wilson was up 1-0 midway through the match, but things turned quickly once he took down Portilla early in the third period. Wilson packed him up and finished the pin in 4:17, using his top skills to neutralize Portilla's skilled hand-fighting.
"I try to get to my hand fighting, stay on my attack," Wilson said. "Try to get a couple of stall calls in, move forward the whole time."
HERSHEY — Kollin Myers knows he is at his best right at the first whistle, right out of the gate.
Perfect run for Monn
Cumberland Valley's Ben Monn immediately became a wrestler to watch when he dropped in the 106-pound weight class for the postseason. His three days in Hershey certainly had their share of must-see moments.
The CV sophomore wrapped up his first district title Saturday with no-doubt 9-0 victory over Cedar Cliff freshman Aiden Lewis, the fourth time in four district matches that Monn shut out his opponent. He left Giant Center having outscored the opposition 38-0.
"I feel very good about it," Monn said. "It helped boost my confidence and beat every single one of my opponents."
Monn didn't enter the tournament as a section champ, having fallen to East Pennsboro's Adam Jacob in the second tiebreaker period in the sectional final.
He looked the part of the favorite on Saturday, though, racking up takedowns in each of the three periods to cruise to the win against Lewis.
"It helped me realize that I do indeed need to work a lot harder," Monn said about the sectional loss. "It helped me be back in my place to train hard and succeed."
Golden trio
A year ago, the trio of Big Spring's Blake Barrick, Northern's Jake Koser and Shippensburg's Cole Forrester left Hershey with a total of one gold medal — which was all that was possible, because they were all in the 195-pound weight class.
The band broke up for this postseason, and the result was gold medals all round for the frequent practice mates.
In addition to Barrick's win at 182, Koser claimed his first district title with a win at 195 and Forrester did likewise at 220.
Koser was jubilant after his win by fall against Cocalico's Ben Fromm, the wrestler who had dealt him a loss in the district semifinals a year ago. This time Koser registered the first takedown and rolled from there, pinning Fromm in the second when a cradle attempt went awry for the Eagle senior.
"Have fun, wrestle hard, not think about it and let my nerves get into it," Koser said. "That was basically the game plan. My coaches kept telling me to have fun, and I did."
Koser's win was part of a big day for Northern, which finished tied for third in the team standings with Cedar Cliff.
The Polar Bears also got championships from senior Paul Feite (138), who threw a jolt into the crowd by hitting a headlock on Lower Dauphin's TT Elhajj for a first-period pin, and senior Micah Hoffman (145), who claimed a 3-1 win over Chambersburg's Tate Nichter to join his father, Randy (Cumberland Valley), and grandfather, Earl (Mechanicsburg), on the list of district champions.
Return to Hershey
In addition to the seven district champs, nine local wrestlers will be back at Giant Center in two weeks for the state championships: Carlisle's Portilla and Colton Jumper (third, 138), East Penn's Jacob (third, 106), Northern's Liam Strouse (fourth, 106), Mechanicsburg's Nick Tewell (third, 126), Red Land's Bryce Brennan (fourth, 126), and Cedar Cliff's Michael Cassidy (second, 132), Ball and Lewis.
