Story Description:
Will Marny Toogood be able to stop a deranged kidnapper and a serial killer before it's too late? Gas station attendant Marny Toogood thinks it's just another ordinary day on the job until an urgent message from a young girl in the backseat of a car draws him into a daring rescue attempt. Now he is on the run with Esther and William Rose from their insane uncle who thinks it is his mission from God to protect William, a boy with incredible faith that gives him supernatural powers. They flee to Esther and William's estranged father, Harold Rose, only to find him also out for murder. Later their nightmare gets worse when Harold kidnaps Esther and takes her to an underground lair where he is part of a grisly occult group who is stealing the blood of their victims and infusing themselves with it. In the end, William's gift saves them all. Have you ever had one of those nightmares where you're being chased by something and no matter what you do or how fast you run, you just can't seem to get away, can't seem to put distance between you and them? That's the feeling this story evokes.
My Review:
I was totally enraptured with this story when I began its first pages. I was turning the pages rapidly, trying to read faster and faster it was so captivating. Suddenly, the story began to downslide into a silly, unbelievable fantasy world that just ruined the entire book for me. I did finish it only because I'd already invested my time and didn't have anything else left to read so I pushed on. What really annoyed me was that the beginning was so good and this could have been an absolutely exciting novel had the author re-thought the path he was going down and sticking to more of a realistic type theme.
If I had the chance to choose this book all over again, I'd leave it on the shelf.

11 Reasons You Have to Love Boxers
10 Jun
They're the actual goofiest dogs around
Like painfully so
It's honestly ridiculous
But behind all the layers of goof (and believe me there are many), they're all also secret models
Well. Sometimes
But they're also ridiculously sweet
And sometimes they look intimidating. Which is great because they can help keep away bad guys
And you know that really, their personality is more like a gentle babysitter/baby
Emphasis on the baby
But whatever your reason, you know you love them
And you know they love you too

OOTD // Velvet
As the autumn are falling down and it's starting to get really cold, it's time to layer. A trend I've been loving: velvet. The quintessentially 90s trend has definitely made a comeback this year. This top is part of a velvet co-ord by Zara, but sadly the joggers were sold out. Velvet tracksuit…. is Juicy Couture also making a coming back?
Halloween tutorials
Hey! As you probably already know, tomorrow it's halloween! I've been watching so many cool tutorials last week, I just had to share some of them with you. In need for some inspiration for tomorrow's trick or treat? From melting skulls to a jewel encrusted E.T.
Here are my favorite Halloween tutorials:
Trend: Puffer Coats
I was a little bit in denial, but not anymore! Fall is here and it won't be long before we'll be needing our scarfs, beanies and gloves. The chill is here, and there is no other choice but to layer and bundle up!
This season the new musthave coat is the puffer coat.
OOTD // Metallics
Shine bright like a….
You either love it or hate it. The metallic trend. I'm a fan! I'm slowly transitioning my closet for fall/winter, and I love these metallics to brighten up an outfit. (or day…) Today's look features a metallic top and my new metallic sock booties. Let's take a look at all the glitter!
P.S I haven't been blogging as much lately, because I was busy focussing on my recovery. Read all about that here.
Trend: Ruffles
90s Nostalgia With Tommy Jeans
Tommy Hilfiger went back to the 90s, with the new Tommy Jeans range. The collection is a series of denim jackets, jeans, logo sweats and t-shirts. Hailey Baldwin and Lucky Blue Smith (best name ever) are the faces of the range. Let's take a look at the collection and dive into the 90s style revival!
On Wednesdays We Wear Pink
A pink bomber, need I say more?
Pastel colors are a major fashion trend this spring and I wanted to embrace this trend by adding this gorgeous pink bomber by Topshop to my wardrobe. Of course, bombers are a trend item that have been around for some time now, and it looks like it's going to stay around. You can style it with a pair of jeans, culottes or with a pencil skirt or a-line skirt, with pastel or crisp white sneakers or even heels for a more dressed up take on this trend.
River Island SS/16
Although it might be freezing and snowing outside, River Island is ready for spring and summer with their new SS16 collection. This collection is filled with bold colors, prints and textures. It has a bit of a 70's touch, with patchwork, suede and fringe. Don't worry though, there are neutrals and denim basics too, that would be be a great addition to anyone's closet!
Glitter Roots
Glitter Roots and Space buns
Today I'm showing you a little Instagram inspired hair do: glitter roots!
A hair trend that went viral at the end of 2015. I felt I just had to give it a try, since I'm trying to let me hair grow and recover from all the bleaching, my roots have grown out quite a bit. It turned out to be really easy too.Any excuse to use glitter and wear my hair in space buns like Lea from Star Wars!

4 Ways to Encourage Creativity in Children
Creativity produces much more than a unique work of art or an original idea. A child's ability to think creatively promotes self-expression, emotional health, mental growth and an appreciation for diversity -- all skills and traits that are vital to a child's overall development and well-being. Provide kids with plenty of opportunities for child-directed play and encourage youngsters to approach, view and think about things in new and unusual ways to turn ordinary activities into ones that spark creativity.
Video of the Day
Child's Play
Role, imaginative and dramatic play encourage children to use their imagination, see through the perspectives of others and explore their feelings, promoting creativity. Take the kids out in the backyard and pretend to be pirates, hunting for treasure. Provide costumes, pots and spoons for banging or other simple playthings and encourage children to play freely with them in an unstructured activity. Inspire kids to share or work out feelings with puppet play, or act out ordinary events, but switch roles so that the kids are the parents and the parents pretend to be the children.
Impromptu Art
Just as creativity inspires art, art activities can also inspire creative thinking skills. Instead of engaging kids in structured art activities with well-defined objectives, allow kids to be spontaneous and decide how the activities will go. Provide kids with open-ended materials that can be used in a variety of ways. Pair jars of tempera paint, for example, with different types of paper, an array of brushes, wet and dry sponges, feathers and other possible tools or embellishments, and allow children to decide what artworks to make with the supplies you've offered. Karen might use a few sturdy leaves, for instance, as a tool for applying the paint to poster board, while Craig might decide to use the paint as an adhesive to glue the leaves onto tissue paper. Encouraging children to be spontaneous and self-directive in these ways promotes creativity in children of all ages.
Goofy Games
Play imaginative games with kids that encourage them to think outside the box, see life from a different point of view and express their feelings through movement and actions. A classic game of charades challenges children to represent and interpret different people, places and things in new and unique ways. Another idea is to arrange players in a circle, give everyone an animal cracker or shaped fruit snack and then challenge kids to "become" that animal or object for two minutes after consuming it, adopting its behaviors, features and characteristics. Or, read a story aloud and encourage children to act it out as you go along, which will also reinforce comprehension skills.
Imaginative Inquiry
Creative questioning encourages children to think about things in new and unusual ways. Look at a picture book together and ask children open-ended questions, such as "What are the people doing in this picture?" or "How do you think it would feel to be that butterfly?" to facilitate creative thinking skills. Play a guessing game by instructing children to close their eyes and identify different items by smell, taste or feel. Or, involve kids in a recipe creation project that requires them to consider changes. If you're making cookies, for example, ask kids, "what can we add to make the cookies taste sweeter?" or "What would give the cookies a different color?"

Liverwort, small terrestrial plant belonging, with mosses and hornworts, to division Bryophyta.
Liverwort, small terrestrial plant belonging, with mosses and hornworts, to division Bryophyta. Bryophytes show alternation of generations, ie, have 2 stages in the life cycle: a free-living, perennial gametophyte (sexual generation) and a short-lived sporophyte (asexual generation) that remains attached to and dependent on the gametophyte. The liverwort gametophyte is either a leafy stem or a thallus, ie, a flat, leafless expanse of cells (resembling the lobes of the liver, hence the name). The horizontally growing gametophytes have rhizoids (structures analogous to roots), which serve to attach them to the surface on which they grow.
Most leafy liverworts have stems with 2 lateral rows of leaves; many species have a third row of reduced leaves on the underside of the stem. Liverwort sporophytes have a foot, embedded into the gametophyte tissues, and a spore capsule, normally raised above the gametophyte by a fragile stalk and persisting for only a day or so. Spores are released when the capsule wall ruptures, generally into 4 sections. Inside the capsules are hygroscopic cells (elaters), which help to disperse the spores. Many liverworts reproduce asexually by gemmae, small groups of cells produced on the thallus or leafy stem. Since they lack any conducting tissues (xylem, phloem), liverworts mainly absorb water directly through leaves, stems or thallus.
The 2 theories of liverwort evolution state that they developed from a primitive group of vascular plants (ie, those having true conducting tissues) or from some green algal ancestor. They belong to a group that lost much evolutionary potential by having the gametophyte generation dominant and by lacking conducting tissues, so that their size is greatly limited (most range from a few millimetres to 20 cm).
Liverworts grow mostly in moist, shady places on rocks, trees, rotten wood, humus or soil. In Canada, they are rarely abundant in ground vegetation except in the temperate rain forests of coastal BC, where they can dominate ground cover and densely clothe branches and tree trunks. Over 7000 species occur worldwide, about 85% having leafy gametophytes.

Published: 2004/09/29
by John Zinkand
Moses, Trey, and David
It's been awhile since I've been able to write, and it feels good to be back. My computer died at the beginning of July and it took a little while for me to get a new one. Since quite a few significant jamband oriented events have happened to me since my last column, I'm going to talk about a few of them in no particular order. First, I want to discuss the outstanding three-show run by the band Moses Guest I saw about a month ago here in the Pacific Northwest. Then there's the surreal experience of witnessing the final Phish show from the comfort of my local Regal Cinema movie theater. I also want to mention the excellent David Byrne show I saw at one of the best venues in Portland, The Oregon Zoo.
Back in July, the Houston based band Moses Guest made their way out of the south up to the Northwest for a handful of shows. I saw them back in late 2003 at the Goodfoot here in Portland, enjoyed the show, and bought their self-titled double album. What the show lacked, the album more than made up for. The songs are well-crafted, thoughtful, and melodic. There are catchy melodies, deep, pensive, and sometimes philosophical lyrics, and some very tasty jams. I could tell the sound was not mixed very well on the night I first saw Moses Guest play live back in 2003, and had been eagerly looking forward to their return. When I saw their schedule had them playing in Portland on a Wednesday, and then playing two Seattle area shows on Friday and Saturday, I jumped at the chance to see what these guys would do over a small run of shows. I was not disappointed at all.
The Portland show was mellow as Moses Guest opened for a local Portland band in a small jazz club, but it was excellent. The turn out was surprisingly good for an opening set by an obscure southern band. The first thing I noticed was that the old keyboard player, Rick Thompson, was no longer in the band. I am always wary of personnel changes in a band as sometimes it takes musicians a little time to click with one another, but was very pleasantly surprised to see the new keyboardist gel flawlessly. I unfortunately forget the guy's name, but his organ solos and palpable energy on stage seemed to elevate the jams to a higher level than the previous show I saw without him. The drummer, James Edwards, plays with a skillful, jazzy subtlety that enhances the band's overall sound. And while Jeremy Horton's bass playing is understated and sometimes a bit too low in the mix for my personal taste, he rounds this four piece band out nicely. Anchoring the entire ensemble down, however, is the infectious vocal style, great songwriting, and powerful guitar jams of Graham Guest. At the end of the Portland show I promptly purchased the band's newest album, Guest Motel, and quickly memorized the newest set of great songs from this young band.
The next night the band played for an even smaller crowd at the Rainbow Room in Seattle, but at least the PA system was much bigger and more powerful than the previous night in Portland. We played some pool in the back of the room while the band ripped through many of their great songs. The last night of the run took place in Fall City, a little town just east of Seattle. This was, ironically, my favorite show of the three. The bar itself was a tiny dive and the clientele were mostly locals, but it was apparent that there were at least a few other Moses Guest fans that had made the trip out from Seattle just to see the band. Although the mostly male audience would have me dub this show "a sausage fest," the band seemed to be having a great time anyway. By the end of the show, a small crowd even started dancing on the dance floor in front of the band. With the entire room grooving, it was sad to see the band play their final song. We took some time to talk to all the guys in the band and tell them to come back soon. If you haven't seen or heard Moses Guest, I highly recommend checking them out. While their style is not musically complex, the emotion, jams, and great songs with a southern flair make them an entertaining young act to see (and cheap, too!).
From one of our scene's smallest bands, I will quickly change gears to touch on the undisputed heavyweight champion of our world, Phish. My first Phish show was in a small theater in Somerville, MA back in 1991. My last Phish show, ironically, was at an even smaller theater in Portland, OR. Of course, my final Phish show was weird because the band wasn't really even there, just their images splashed up on a big screen while their music was transferred digitally thousands of miles from Vermont to Oregon. Seeing Phish's final show from the comfort of my local movie theater was more than just a little bizarre, it was completely surreal. The episode started with the manager of the theater letting us know that no smoking…..of anything…would be permitted in the theater. During the first set break, we walked to a friend's house for a quick visit since they live close to the theater. During the second set break, we walked over and got some sushi (what better snack during a Phish show than some raw fish?).
It was a very emotional experience. People were dancing in the aisles, cheering, crying, yelling at the screen in frustration, or listening closely. The parts of the show where the band members choked up were extremely touching and sad. Some of the jams were intense, and the Down With Disease second set opener jam and glowstick war was completely off the charts. And while the mix of sentimentality and exploratory high-energy improvisations made me wonder why this band was breaking up, every composed section of almost any song they played seemed to answer that question all too well. Overall, it seemed like Trey has just lost interest and needs to move on.
Huge swaths of Taste, Glide, Split Open and Melt, and Slave were played terribly. I also found it slightly shocking, considering the back-story and seemingly well-planned placement of the tune, that Phish's final song, The Curtain With, would be played so poorly. Maybe the reason was that Trey and company were overrun with emotion and couldn't get it together to play the song well. But I think a more realistic reason is pretty simple: they just didn't practice it. So while it is trite to say at this point, the entire experience of the final show was bittersweet. It was fun, entertaining, bizarre, surreal, and sad. But in the end, it seems like the right decision. And I'm glad I didn't have to hike for miles or deal with mounds of mud to experience it
The next thing I want to mention is the David Byrne show I saw a month or so ago at the Oregon Zoo here in Portland. Although Byrne ended the band that earned him fame a long time ago, he manages to reinvent himself with every new album or project he tries. His newest album, Grown Backwards, is mellower than some of his past works, but is quite eloquent. Byrne explores the use of a small string orchestra and the influence of opera, and it works surprisingly well. The live show was a great mix of his newer material juxtaposed against old Talking Heads favorites. Byrne's energy on stage and his magnanimous presence is undeniable. I've never seen the entire crowd up and dancing at the typically mellow Oregon Zoo, but on the night Byrne played, there was a rare exception. Even with their bellies full of food and snacks brought from home and bottles of local wine purchased inside the venue, folks danced until the bitter end of the second encore (and David played past curfew until the houselights were glaring in our eyes at the end of the show).

Real Madrid made a point, proved and surprised everyone with their ability to actually dominate a game against Barcelona, even at the Camp Nou. Forget about talks of Barca taking it easy because of their away lead or anything like that. Real's resistance game came exactly at the right time, even if it didn't get them a win and a semi final. More
Jose Mourinho can't help but talk about Barcelona. He's asked every press conference about them, but he always has his own personal message to pass on, with the usual dig twisted with a compliment. Dani Alves couldn't help himself and answered to the Real Madrid head coach. More
Two penalties from Lionel Messi (53rd minute, 30th league goal) and Cristiano Ronaldo (82nd minute, 29th league goal) sent Real Madrid and Barcelona leaving the Bernabeu with mixed emotions, satisfactions and disappointments from the second Clasico of the season. More
Barcelona hand Real Madrid and Jose Mourinho their first loss of the season, destorying Madrid 5-0 (two goals from Villa), capturing the top spot and winning their fifth straight El Clasico. More

Beauty salon owners in Malaysia have been warned that they may face criminal charges if they administer Botox, or any other cosmetic treatments. Health Minister for the country, Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, made the announcement at the Beauty Professional 2012 exhibition held in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.He said: Those [beauticians] who perform medical treatments will be charged. It is illegal for beauty parlours and private clinics to carry out plastic and cosmetic surgery." He went on to say that "only specially trained doctors, such as skin specialists or plastic surgeons have the necessary qualifications, skills and experience to carry out laser hair removal, injections, or any surgical procedure. The warnings were also given to patients who Liow advised should thoroughly research the procedure and practitioner prior to treatment, preferably with the help of the countrys medical register.See the original story here

How to select clock for PHY whether Internal clock or External clock?
Latest Updated:09/28/2009
The Clock for PHY is selectable whether Internal clock or External clock. How to decide the selection ?
Jitters of the differential transmit output pins (TxP and TxM) depend on the jitter of the original clock. Thus, they can be reduced by using an external clock if its jitter characteristic is better. Please note that if the jitter characteristic of the original clock is not good, it may cause frequent False Carriers.

Sponsored by Zoetis Animal Health, the 2014 edition of Cattlemen's College offers a wide range of informative, hands-on educational workshops designed for cattle operations of every size and sector. The program will be held Feb. 3-4, 2014, in Nashville, Tenn., headlining the first day of activities at the 2014 Cattle Industry Convention and NCBA Trade Show. Early registration for Cattlemen's College and the convention ends Jan. 10, 2014. Cattlemen's College workshops include an outstanding lineup of industry experts during the course of two jam-packed days. On Mon., Feb. 3, participants will first hear from Dr. Arne Anderson as he presents "Manners Matter: Keeping You and Your Cattle Alive and Well". This first class is aimed at the "dos" and "don'ts" of processing cattle through a chute, with emphasis placed on safety and efficiency for both the cowboys and the cattle. Following this presentation, Dr. Jerry Lipsey will demonstrate how to select replacement heifers for longevity in a presentation entitled "Can Visual Evaluation Foresee Differences in Fertility?", and Dr. Kent Andersen will discuss the selection of replacement bulls for fertility. On Monday evening, Cattlemen's College participants will be treated to a reception sponsored by Certified Angus Beef. The reception will be an opportunity to visit with fellow cattlemen as well as the afternoon's speakers. Starting Tuesday morning at 7:00 am, Cattlemen's College classes begin with a keynote address by Bob Langert, who is the corporate vice president, and leads corporate social responsibility & sustainability for McDonald's Corporation. Langert will share McDonald's overall sustainable supply chain vision and how beef fits in. As sustainability evolves, listen in to see how McDonald's is working with various stakeholders, including all parts of the value chain, to collaborate on social and environmental opportunities and challenges. Proceeding Langert's address, five concurrent classroom sessions will begin at 8:15 am with each classroom having specific areas of emphasis including resource management, animal management, ranch management, finance and business and consumer relations. "Cattlemen's College gives producers an opportunity to hear from some of the leading experts in topics that impact their cattle operations every day, as well as the chance to interact with those experts and ask questions," said NCBA Executive Director of Producer Education John Paterson. "Many of the presenters are legends in the beef industry, and the wide variety of classes offers something for every producer. We highly encourage cattlemen and women to take advantage of this informative and educational program." Registration for Cattlemen's College includes all classes along with lunch on Feb. 4. This schedule allows cattlemen to attend up to five 45-minute workshops. Cattlemen's College registration information, as well as a complete schedule for the 2014 Cattle Industry Convention and NCBA Trade Show are available at www.beefusa.org. Back to news

Had a lovely discussion today with another passionate virtual world education advocate. He showed me Virtlantis and shared with me his vision of open collaboration.
Seems there is quite a few of us wishing to see function follow form.
So many new worlds jumping up trying to communicate how engaging the immersive factor is for experiential learning. SpotON3D, Reaction Grid, Active Worlds, Hypergrid's multiple worlds. We all start our own worlds with our own goals, and I think that is where we are failing.
The motherland of Second Life might be ending, (if my inside sources are correct) within a year, or it will evolve. Where will all these orphans of the vision unite after the homeland dissolves?
Is it our nature to collaborate? The seduction of creation sometimes takes precedence(click the link at the end of this blog for the video) as the urge to see our vision come to life...but after that? Where will it all go? Who or what will be the hub? Will there be a hub? Or will we all be "in the cloud"?
What do you think? Below is my little vision and the seduction of being the creator for the Science Circle's new opensim venture.

I don't really know how else to put it – pegging is the shit. For the n00bs who have no idea what I'm talking about – pegging is the term for when someone uses a strap-on to butt fuck someone else. Seriously! It's probably, like, my number one favorite sex act ever. I just really love screwing with gender roles and there's a certain dominance that overwhelms me when I've got a grizzly dude on their hands and knees. Plus, what better way to stick it to the patriarchy then to stick it in their ass?
Unfortunately, I had to learn my pegging etiquette the hard way (lol hard) by trial and error. If it's your first time, keep these things in mind for the safest, most pleasurable experience.
Lube. Lube, lube, lube, lube, lube. Use lube, and use a lot of it. Butt holes don't naturally lubricate the way our other orifices do, so you gotta help a brother out. Personally, I prefer silicone lube because it's super-duper slick and a little lasts a looooong time, whereas water-based lubes dry up and must be continuously reapplied. Some people are divas and think silicone lube is annoying to clean up – and you know what I've got to say about that? Quit yer bitchin! A few extra minutes of cleanup is worth keeping that precious, uber-sensitive butt hole happy. There is one little problem with silicone lube, though – you can't use it with silicone toys. But don't you fret! If you've got a silicone cock, water-based lube is just fine, and will only ensure an even more wet and wild ride!
If the person you're pegging has little to no experience with anal – DO NOT DIVE IN DICK FIRST!!! Our butt holes actually need to be trained to maintain a certain elasticity that a good anal pounding requires. Before you even invest in a super dope harness and the big, glittery cock of your dreams – try some finger play with your partner first, to make sure they even like it. Once a finger becomes more and more comfortable, upgrade to a small toy, then gradually work your way up. Make sure the plugs and dildos you choose have a tapered tip to ease insertion and a base that's wider than the toy's widest point so it doesn't get lost forever (or really, until an embarrassing hospital visit…) I suggest using smoooooooth, tapered toys with no drag for beginners solo anal use - glass, metal, and ceramic are perfect – and softer materials like silicone and PVC for strap-on use. Though hard materials slide the best, I don't let other people use them on me because one wrong movement is just, like… oooouuuuuccccchhh!!!!!!
Now, if you're gonna dive into the poop shoot, you're gonna need to be prepared for the not-so mystery that lies inside. There's just no way around it and no way to put it lightly – there's poop up there. It's just a biological fact. You can enema all you want, you can starve yourself all day (which I seriously don't even recommend for any reason ever), but there's still gonna be poop up there… AND THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. To the person being pegged – don't you ever be ashamed of your bodily functions. To the person doing the pegging – don't you ever shame someone for their bodily functions. If you can't stomach the possibility of poo, then you have no business pegging.
A lot of cis straight dudes get super skeeved out when considering pegging, like they have to defend their heterosexuality. But, uh, guess what guys – every cis dude has a prostate, and every prostate feels AWESOME when you get at it. Period. It's just, like, science. Also, FYI, your sexual identity is not defined by the sexual acts you perform or even the sex partner(s) you have – it's whatever YOU identify as. And even if getting it up the butt did make you gay – so what? There's nothing wrong with being gay anyway.

The next-generation reactors Florida Power & Light hopes to install at Turkey Point have been touted as simpler and safer, boasting an emergency cooling system that automatically kicks on during a power loss like the one that sparked the crisis at a Japanese plant.
A tank high atop the Westinghouse AP 1000 holds 780,000 gallons of water. That's enough, Westinghouse calculates, to control reactor heat for 72 hours without electricity or anyone even pushing a button. Instead, the system relies on gravity to deliver water and on evaporation and condensation to re-circulate it until generators or outside power can be brought on line.
But critics contend the AP 1000, also picked by Progress Energy for a new plant in Levy County and the leading model in the nuclear power industry's expansion plans, may have flaws that could make it less safe under assault from an earthquake, tornado or hurricane and leave it more exposed to damaging corrosion along the salty coastline of South Biscayne Bay.

Your cart is empty.:( Let's fix that!Close
Summer means sleeping in, staying up late, and running through sprinklers. It is also the time for ROAD TRIPS! Living in Portland means that we are close enough to head North to Seattle and Canada, or travel south to California. We have road tripped since my daughter was just a baby and after six years of practice, we've developed a system and a plan of attack. (Although sometimes, it's fun to just pack up and take a spur of the moment trip and just get in the car and drive, like on those amazingly hot Willamette Valley days where the whole Metro area decides to escape to the foggy coast.)
Here are some ways to make your car trip easy to manage and full of fun:
1. Lists, lists, lists! It is helpful to have a list of what you've packed so that everything returns home with you (especially when you have several children and all their clothes, toys, and ephemera). I usually make a list of exactly what items my daughter packs in her backpack, so when we're gathering up our belongings from Grandpa's house, we don't leave anything special behind. (Trust me, I've had to get off the freeway and go back for beloved stuffed animals before.) If your child can read/write, they can be in charge of their own packing/list.
2. Pack a small cooler to keep on the back seat. Kids can self-serve sandwiches, carrot sticks, and drinks, which can cut down on the requests for restaurant stops. Bring your child to the grocery store and have them pick out special snacks for travel day. Squeezable apple sauce, cut up fruit, and muffins are staples for our travels. Hang a trash/recycling bag from the back of the driver/passenger seat for easy clean-up. Pack wet wipes to clean those messy hands!
3. Hit the library a few days before you leave. You can find books on tape with follow along books, Preschool Book in a Bag (themed books and games), movies (for portable DVD players), and audiobooks (to load as mp3s or play in-dash). A compelling audiobook can soothe cranky kids who persist in asking, "When are we going to get there?"
4. Leave before sunrise. My godfather had a tradition with his kids when they were small that I always admired. He would load the sleeping kids into the car in their pajamas and hit the road around 3:00 a.m. The kids would snooze for a good four hours, oblivious, and the parents would have some quiet travel time. This is especially helpful when you are traveling in a hot climate. Pack changes of clothes for daytime. (It's a good idea to have always have something in the way of extra clothes in case juice spills or anyone gets carsick.)
5. Travel treats! We have a sweet tradition in our family. The night before we leave for a trip, I sneak several special things in my daughter's backpack. I have done this since she was quite small. For younger children, you could include sticker books, finger puppets, or animal crackers. Older children may appreciate Mad Libs, a packet of activity sheets you've compiled and printed out from the internet, or magnetic paper dolls.
6. Embrace the portable game system or the iPod. Really. Your child isn't going to rot his or her brain during the timespan of a road trip. If you've sung "I've been working on the railroad" until you think your eyeballs are going to explode, and you have wriggling kids in the back seat, an episode of a PBS Kids show is a total lifesaver!
With small kids, it's hard not to pack along your whole house, but it is possible to come up with a sort of "Entertainment Emergency Kit" that doesn't take up too much room. I save these last-resort items in a bag in the trunk for meltdowns. Sometimes I whip out an enormous lollipop (it can bring about an amazing amount of silence!), small paper lunch bags for making puppets, or small stuffed animal to cuddle. Wherever your family is headed this summer, pack wisely and have a great time!

Herbed Couscous with Apricots
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: I've never been a huge couscous fan. But I thought I'd give this category a shot anyway. I wanted to create something a little more flavorful since couscous can be pretty lackluster. So I looked to my bible for inspiration (The Flavor Bible, that is) and found many complimentary flavors that might work, with couscous as the blank canvas. Truthfully, this recipe needs something else; maybe a crunch factor, like sliced almonds. Or maybe some nicely grilled lamb chops on the side. As much as I'm not in love with this recipe, it was fun putting the flavors together. And the pictures came out pretty nice, too. Thankfully, my 13-year-old daughter helps me choose which pictures to post, otherwise I'd spend an eternity trying to pick the best one. Goes something like this: "Em, which one looks better - #1 or #2?" And down the line we go, because undoubtedly, there will be several shots of the same dish. Sort of like when you're at the eye doctor's getting a new prescription and he's flipping the lenses back and forth, back and forth, asking you which one is clearer. —mrslarkin
Serves: 2 to 3
1 1/2
cups coconut milk (I used 1/2 light & 1/2 full-fat coconut milk)
teaspoon anise seed
cup Israeli couscous
pinch of salt
dried apricots, diced
tablespoon chopped mint
tablespoon chopped cilantro
scallion, sliced, white and dark green sections only
teaspoon lime zest
juice of 1/4 lime
- Pour coconut milk into saucepan, add anise seed, and heat to nearly boiling. It will start to bubble and spurt. Careful - don't scorch the bottom!
- Reduce heat to simmer, add couscous and pinch of salt. Cover with lid. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until couscous is plump and pulls away from sides of saucepan. Let cool slightly.
- Add remaining ingredients and combine. Serve room temperature.

For the last 18 months, Canadians have witnessed an increasingly rancorous debate over the acquisition of the next generation of fighter jet. That debate led to reports by the Parliamentary Budget Office, the Office of the Auditor General and, finally, a report by the accounting firm KPMG.
During this debate, opposition members and critics argued the problems were due to the lack of a transparent competitive bid process. Their narrative assumed that the purchase of advanced military technologies is really no different from normal government procurement — where an array of competitors offer fairly standardized, readily-available products and the government gets the best price through a competitive bid process.
But advanced military technologies are leading-edge, very complex and frequently face problems in development. To win a combat advantage, these technologies often push the boundaries of physics and engineering.
Procurement problems in advanced weapons technology are not primarily due to lack of competition; they have more to do with the uniqueness of the technology itself. Moreover, some of these advanced technologies are highly classified and not in the public domain.
Still, the political backlash over the cost of buying the F-35 led the Harper government to establish a new secretariat in Public Works to manage procurement for our next fighter jet.
This secretariat must now address three strategic issues: whether Canada needs a manned fighter aircraft at all; what that fighter should be equipped to do; and the relative advantages and disadvantages of each alternative.
Some critics have suggested that Canada can do without fighter aircraft. Canada — so the thinking goes — could either outsource that component of national defence to the U.S., or it could adopt drones. Our sovereignty demands a Canadian solution, but we should address the prospect that air combat will one day be accomplished with pilotless vehicles.
But air combat still requires human situational awareness and rapid-fire decision making. We may see a mix of manned fighter aircraft and unmanned combat air vehicles beginning to emerge in the next few decades. For now, however, the consensus of western military establishments is that Canada and its allies will need a manned fighter aircraft for at least another 30 years.
The key measure of military utility is being able to participate fully and effectively in combat operations. Unofficially, militaries are sometimes categorized into tiers, with Tier 1 covering those which are most combat-capable. Tier 2 capability is still useful, but less effective. Tier 3 forces are politically useful, but the least effective. Less capable militaries are not fully interoperable with the most capable forces.
Military capability translates into international respect and influence. For decades, Canada has aspired to have a military capability that would make a difference with its allies. Through two world wars, the formation of NATO, the Cold War and UN operations, Canada developed a reputation for reliability and effectiveness in war.
A small military like ours needs to be fully interoperable to win international leverage. It's critical that Canada continue its tradition of quality. Some fighter jets meet this quality line, while some do not.
In other words, buying advanced systems for war is nothing like comparison-shopping for a snowblower. There are only five fighter jet options open to us: Lockheed Martin's F-35, Boeing's F-18, Eurofighter's Typhoon, Sweden's Gripen and the French Dassault Rafale.
The Gripen is the least expensive option, but is not as capable and would not be fully interoperable. The Dassault is very expensive due to France's policy of making most of the components domestically; it also is not fully interoperable, especially in the area of weaponry.
The Eurofighter is a very sophisticated and capable plane. However, it is built by a consortium of four countries established through political bargaining, not by a single company with a single value chain. That makes it costlier than the F-35, somewhat less capable and with fewer prospects for direct, high-quality industrial offsets. The Boeing F-18E, with the appropriate add-ons (which cost more), is also capable and interoperable.
The Lockheed Martin F-35 is the future fighter for the United States and some key allies. Although it is the most capable aircraft available, the problems of major cost overruns are very well known.
Unfortunately, a second issue was introduced during the debate over the F-35. For several decades, government procurement policy clearly separated capital acquisition costs and operations and maintenance (O and M) costs. During the F-35 debate, however, critics concatenated O and M costs with acquisition costs.
Businesspeople know that acquiring a capital asset, like a manufacturing plant, is not the same as maintaining the plant for years into the future. A capital asset is recorded on the balance sheet as an asset, while ongoing annual maintenance costs are an annual expenditure on the income and expense statement.
Canadians understand that purchasing a Toyota Camry for $30,000 excludes the annual cost of gas, insurance, licensing and maintenance. The CAA estimates the annual O and M cost of a new Camry at $7,500 a year (assuming standard mileage) — that's an additional $75,000 over ten years above and beyond the capital cost. But no one expects automotive dealers to advertise the purchase price of a new Camry at over $100,000.
While it is critical that estimates of O and M be properly understood and compared, these future costs must be kept separate from the acquisition costs.
Critics of the F-35 process have assumed the problems of cost increases could be solved by seeking competitive bids. But the cost problems are compounded by the extreme complexity of bleeding-edge military technology and the fact that the number of unique, qualified military manufacturers is always going to be much smaller than the number of firms making standardized, off-the-shelf consumer products (like snowblowers).
Costs are important, but so is capability. Since all three capable aircraft will require pilots and fuel, the O and M costs will be very similar for each of the three planes, just as the O and M costs for a Camry and a Honda Accord are fairly similar. The strategic challenge for the secretariat is to place a value on combat capability, to determine if and how Canada will continue to protect its sovereignty and contribute to international peace and security.
Ultimately, the procurement decision will revolve around political decisions in the context of very scarce resources in an aging society; these are extremely expensive aircraft, after all. The debate will be politically-charged and the political or value tradeoffs will be very difficult — but necessary.

Farmers oppose closing site
Gillibrand wants to save Farm Service Agency office in Ballston Spa
BALLSTON SPA — Farm Service Agency offices in Saratoga and Albany counties are preparing to close this summer after decades of assisting agriculture.
Barring a last-minute intervention, FSA branches in Ballston Spa and Voorheesville will shut down Aug. 31. FSA staff from Saratoga County will relocate to Greenwich in Washington County, and Albany County operations would move to Schoharie as part of federal budget cuts that call for the closing of 125 FSA offices nationwide.
The changes mean farmers will have to travel miles further to access federal crop insurance, disaster assistance, loans and other forms of federal farm support, U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand told Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack in a letter on Thursday.
Gillibrand, a member of the Agriculture Committee, urged Vilsack to keep the Saratoga County FSA office open. In a last effort to save it, the senator is pushing for an amendment to the Farm Bill in the Senate that would rework criteria used for closing Department of Agriculture offices.
"Farmers in Saratoga County count on their local FSA office, and closing this office would leave them at least an additional hour from services," the senator wrote. "Please strongly consider the needs of New York farmers and halt the closing of this critical FSA office."
Federal officials set the criteria for closure. FSA offices within 20 miles of another and those with two or fewer employees were chosen for elimination. The Agriculture Department is also closing FSA offices in Sullivan and Yates counties, the Food Safety and Inspection Service office in Albany, the Food and Nutrition Service office in Monroe County, and a Natural Resources Conservation Service office in Broome County.
Steve Ropitzky, executive director of the Saratoga County FSA, is cleaning out the space for Aug. 31. The FSA has been at 50 W. High St. since 1979.
Farmers in Saratoga County are not happy with the consolidation. About 100 farmers turned out in opposition to the plan at a public hearing in February.
The FSA county office is being punished for recently reducing its staff to two from three, dairy farmer Charles Hanehan of Saratoga said. Hanehan drives to the FSA building in Ballston Spa about six times a year to sign up for programs and report crop acreage. A move to Greenwich would inconvenience many farmers in western Saratoga County, he said. The dairy farmer enjoys having the FSA office in the same West High Street building as Cornell Cooperative Extension, Saratoga County Soil & Water Conservation District, and USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service.
"We have one-stop shopping," he said. "It's something we're definitely going to miss."

NEW HAVEN, Conn. — It's death for the home invasion monster.
After 17 hours of deliberations, jurors in the capital murder trial of Steven Hayes have voted that he should be put to death.
Hayes, 47, was one of two men who three years ago broke into the tree-shaded, four-bedroom Colonial of noted endocrinologist Dr. William Petit, unleashing a seven-hour nightmare of rape, murder and arson.
The verdict left many among family and friends in silent tears. But Dr. Petit began to cry only at the verdict for the last of six death-eligible murder charges — that for the death of his wife during the commission of a sex crime.
When verdict came down Hayes smiled, his lawyer said.
Lead public defender Thomas Ullmann said, "He's very happy with the verdict. It's what he's wanted all along, which is suicide by state. He wants to die and he can't kill himself. He's very happy with the verdict. He smiled when it came in."
Petit said the verdict was about justice and did not bring closure.
"It's a hole with jagged edges," he said. "Over time the edges may smooth out a little bit, but the hole in your heart, the hole in your soul is always there."
Hayes, meanwhile, showed no emotion, though he slumped forward ever so slightly the first of six times that the clerk, standing and reading aloud from 50-pages of verdict sheets, uttered the single, condemning syllable: death.
Outside the courthouse, Petit also said it took too long — 38 months — for him to get justice.
"I don't know what's wrong with our system that it takes three years," he said.
Petit added, "I still think the system must be improved for victims."
"I'm glad for the just verdict because there was justice," he said.
The crackhead career burglar was convicted last month of strangling and raping Petit's wife, pediatric nurse Jennifer Hawke-Petit, and of helping to literally burn alive the couple's daughters, Hayley, 17, and Michaela, 11.
Hayes' co-defendant, Joshua Komisarjevsky, 29, is due to be tried next week as the alleged mastermind of the mom and girls' senseless slaughter. Prosecutors say Komisarjevsky, another career burglar who met Hayes in a prison half-way house, targeted the three after seeing them in a supermarket parking lot the day before.
Petit said he's had a lot of "sleepless nights" and "tears" before getting to this place.
"I was really crying, crying for the loss," he said, before choking up during the news conference.
Petit said he will never get closure — despite the death sentence — because his kids "had a great future" and their deaths remain a "huge void in my life."

How Full Stack is Driving Vendor Innovation
As products have become more specialized, they are appealing to an increasingly narrow and more sophisticated customer set. Firewalls are no longer meant for IT engineers, but firewall experts. SSL requires deep knowledge of SSL certifications. Such segmentation subsequently requires specialized expertise from IT personnel and poses a multidimensional challenge for hiring managers. (more…)
2016 Predictions for Networking Evolution
by Nick Lippis
Last year members of the ONUG Community took front row seats to the emergence of a software-defined Infrastructure ecosystem and its cloudification. In this new software-defined world, the wide area or (SD-WAN) came into focus. ONUG Fall at NYU saw the greatest participation ever of SD-WAN players, as thirteen vendors exhibited an SD-WAN solution. In 2016, the ONUG Community will again have front-row seats to witness the significant changes taking place in the IT industry, particularly in open infrastructure. (more…)

Referencing an F# library from C# on .NET Core
Aaaand a post again, which will be deprecated at some point: currently using both F# and C# in a .net core solution is possible, but needs some workaround. Here I describe how you can do it. In the sample I create an ASP.NET Core C# application, and an F# library, which is used from the ASP.NET Core C# app. The sample is here.
It's a very common scenario that you want to create a .NET library in F# and use it from C#. On Full Framework this is trivial. Visual Studio has templates for all of this, you create a library by clicking to "File" -> "New Project" -> "F# tab" -> F# library. Now this does not work on CoreCLR. These templates use the old project system, so they all target full framework.
If you want to do it for CoreCLR here are the steps:
- Create an F# library with the command line tool
At this point (right after the RTM release of CoreCLR) there is no template for coreCLR based F# projects in visual studio, so you have to create it with the dotnet cli by typing:
dotnet new --lang F#
This generates a coreCLR based F# console application.
The project.json is basically already fine, one thing, which you can change is to set the "emitEntryPoint" to false.
As a sample I only created a single function, which returns a string and has an int parameter:
namespace FSharpLib module FSharpSample = let SampleFSharpFunction (n: int) = "Hello From F#, you passed: " + n.ToString()
- Add the generated F# lib to a Visual Studio solution
If you work on Windows with high probability you use Visual Studio and you want to have the F# library in your solution. For this you can just right click the solution and select "Existing project". Here you can select the project.json file and open it. VS automatically generates an .xproj file in the folder.
After this you have the F# project in your solution. This basically lists the F# library under the "dependencies" section of the project.json of the C# project.
If you are on a non-Windows OS, you can do this step manually, just list the fsharp library as a dependency.
"dependencies": { "Microsoft.NETCore.App": { "version": "1.0.0", "type": "platform" }, "Microsoft.AspNetCore.Diagnostics": "1.0.0", "Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.IISIntegration": "1.0.0", "Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel": "1.0.0", "Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Console": "1.0.0", "LibFSharp": "1.0.0-*" },
- Use the F# library from C#
From this point you can use the F# library from C# as you use any F# lib from C# on full framework. In the sample I return the text from the F# library as the response for any http request:
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app,
IHostingEnvironment env, ILoggerFactory loggerFactory)
if (env.IsDevelopment())
app.Run(async (context) =>
var txt = FSharpLib.FSharpSample.SampleFSharpFunction(42);
await context.Response.WriteAsync(txt);
There are two things which are in my opinion important, but do not work at this point:
- The Visual Studio (and Visual Studio Code) support is very limited: VS marks every line as an error, although the compilers can deal with the solution in multiple languages. At this point we have to live with this.
- Debugging from C# to F# and vice versa does not work.
I tried to figure out if there is a solution for these problems on StackOverflow, but as it seems we have to accept this. I work on a side project where I have an F# library in my solution and with the listed limitations I'm still productive, so if you accept it you can already use F# in a real project on .net core.

- brazilero2008 commented on brazilero2008's instructable Improved Electrostatic Turbine Made from Recyclables2 years agoView Instructable »
Thanks for your interest. Construction is not difficult; remember to reduce friction whenever possible. That means verifying that turbine axle is properly centered & turns freely in bearings w/minimal vibration. Secondly, distance between the metal surface of the turbine & the electrodes must be as small as possible. I used 2 sheets of printer paper as a gauge. Project was designed & built on the cheap; cost should be less than $20. The power source was a room air ionizer. You can find small units at yard sales for a few dollars. The spin of the turbine is a reaction to the spray of charged particles or ions from the electrode vanes. The turbine won't spin if exposed to an electrically neutral wind produced by mounting it to a moving bike.Good Luck!

Personal training has the word "personal" in it. I think that's the biggest part. On the surface you would think it's more about how much knowledge you have but it's not the case. Much of your job is about helping your client change their habits. You should have the maturity to be able to have honest discussions. Knowing when to be hard and when to be soft.
Not everyone has the compassion to make a great trainer. In order to become a great trainer you have to be a good listener. You need to be able to pull information from people and not be scared of being open and honest with your clients. When you're honest, you let them know that you expect the same.
If you:
- Love people and you gain energy from being around them
- Love health and fitness and what it does to people
- Find joy in helping others
Personal training might just be the perfect fit.
On the flip side, if:
- Being around people drains your energy
- You don't take care of yourself
- Helping people doesn't satisfy you
Personal training will not be a good fit.

Hard fern in Ruahine Forest ParkImage: Jack Mace ©
Located in
the Manawatu/Whanganui and Hawke's Bay regions
Expand all | Collapse all
Although attempts to develop snow skiing began in the 1930s there is now no formal skifield. Today the ranges are sometimes used for cross-country skiing, especially in the Rangiwahia area.
Trout fishing is a popular activity on several of the park's rivers. Within the park rainbow trout predominate, although there are brown trout in some southern Ruahine river catchments. A Fish and Game fishing licence is required.
Visit these heritage sites in the park and experience history right where it happened:
Takapari Rd takes an 11 km climb up to A-Frame Hut. Enjoy extensive views to east and west coasts from the tops. Be prepared for extreme weather conditions. Check beforehand that the road is open for vehicles.
On the southern end of the Ruahine Range is the Wharite television transmitter. The access road to the transmitter provides a scenic drive up to a picnic area where views of the surrounding countryside, wind turbines and Palmerston North are found. This road can become impassable at times due to snow and other extreme weather conditions.
The forest park stretches almost 100 km from the Taruarau River in the north to the Manawatu Gorge in the South.
Ruahine Forest Park can be accessed from its eastern side and its western side.
Trampers in snow, Ruahine Forest Park
Ruahine Forest Park is characterised by a cool, cloudy climate with heavy rain at times. The area is renown for strong winds especially in the southern ranges, and there can be snow at any time of the year.
Extreme fire conditions can exist during summer. The park is a restricted fire area, which means permits to light fires are required all year round.
Only registered, avian aversion certified hunting dogs, Guide dogs, companion dogs (certified by the Top Dog Companion Trust) and dogs used for special services (including conservation management activities) are permitted in the park. All other dogs are banned. Hunting with dogs
The Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) topographical maps that cover the Ruahine Forest Park are:
Ongoing/dates vary: The Manawatu volunteer programme offers a small selection of projects for people looking to get involved with conservation work in their community.
Thanks to the Ruahine Whio Protectors, we've got confirmation that kiwi are present across more of the Ruahine Forest Park than was previously known.

Bummer on the punies, and I do hope you are feelng a bit better this afternoon. If you're out & about in public, there's no telling what you are exposed to, and even trying to be proactive with the hand cleaning is no guarantee. Of course I think this is the best card you've shared to date (it has these darling birds on it). It's just one of those images that make one smile & feel good to see it. The background treatments work beautifully with the image, to create a pretty, cheery & happy Christmas card! Also love the way you've added one of the cuties inside with the sentiment. Big hugs, feel better soon. TFS
