It's the summer. Medialand is on holiday, and even if you are at work there is a holiday feel around.
It's harder to get hold of the right people, the decision makers that are required to input into your digital marketing. It's a time, ideally, when marketers are under a little less pressure than normal.
So here are five things you can do in August that will genuinely make you a better digital marketer...
1) Take a break
All rest and no play is not good. It is all too easy to get swept up into a digital marketing bubble – a place where every tweet, piece of fast content and share is analysed, reviewed and rated; this isn't how non-marketers operate, think or use online and social media.
Even if you are not going away in August, try and spend some time this month taking a break from over-analysis of these marketing metrics. Try and think like your target demographic and use digital the way they do – for fun and consumer information - not the way we often think they should. Give yourself a break and maybe even....
2) Try something different
Experimentation is what drives digital marketing. So what better time to experiment with something than in August, when all the bigwigs are off on holiday and you can maybe get away with a little bit more freedom and experimentation.
I say this tentatively of course! But if there's an app, widget or service you have wanted to experiment with for a while already – check it out now. You can report back to your tanned colleagues in September and claw back some smugupmanship points. But it's also important in August that you...
3) Read and review
Think of the summer as the perfect opportunity to review the content you have on your blog or company website; spruce it up, refresh it and ditch anything that is out of date or no longer relevant to what you do.
We all know that onsite content is now more important than ever. It's a great time to review your existing content and content strategy too, as well as a good time to line up and source potential future outsourced agencies to work with when everyone is 'back at school' in September. Y
ou never know, you may find that you are actually ready to...
4) Share some news
If you are looking to get some coverage for your product, service or brand, but are perhaps a little bit unsure about how newsworthy what you have to say is: release it in August.
Why? It's a slow news month, that's why. Any old hack or seasoned PR professional will be able to tell you that August is great for maximising that coverage of a non-news story.
Newsrooms are quiet and are crying out for something interesting to cover – so earn some brownie points while your colleagues are off and try to create some well measured print, website and social media coverage. Of course, one of the best ways to make media contacts is to...
5) Hit the pub
Most digital marketers are pretty familiar with the pub at all times of year, but, and I firmly believe this is important in a communication led industry, marketers should hit the pub more in August.
The weather is better (in London), the workload a little lighter (sometimes) and everyone is in a bit more of a holiday mood (occasionally!).
Over the years I have picked up some great advice, ideas, leads and even new clients from social events. There is no better time of year to catch up with colleagues, ex-colleagues and contacts to ascertain the wider view of the digital landscape.
So get out to those MeetUp Events, networking soirees and ex-work colleague reunions. It's far better to do this in August than on a wet Wednesday in November when you have back-to-back client calls and team meetings on the agenda the next day, isn't it?
The main thing is to enjoy the summer, think aloud, share your thoughts with other digital marketers, take a break and re-energise in preparation for what is always a busy run up to Christmas and the New Year.

Really informative in digital marketing.
Great advice. I will be using most of it. I find myself doing 16 hour days lately and losing focus. I'm glad i ran into this post.
Great advices. Definitely I need to follow them in August on mine online marketer position or suggest for director take some break :)
Very good point about August being a slow month for news! T
Very weak article, almost as bad as the accompanying photographs. Expect much better from Econsultancy.

School of Hotel & Restaurant Management
Room Descriptions
HRM East will feature a variety of learning environments. Here are a few "moments" captured in some of them.
Demonstration Kitchen
This is a signature room in the repurposed HRM East, our showcase. The glass encased kitchen laboratory is designed to provide students, parents and other guests passing by an unencumbered view of the facility in operation. This room is centrally located in a heavy traffic area with high visibility. The facility has equipment for the lab instructor to use for demonstration purpose and eight individual stations, each occupied by four students for their hands-on training.
The room is equipped with a closed circuit camera and viewing screen allowing the lab instructor to zoom in on demonstrations to give each student a clear view. The variety of state-of-the-art equipment will allow for demonstration of all cooking techniques.
Each of the student stations is equipped with induction burner plates, preparation table, electric mixer, and prep sinks. Each student station has a corresponding equipment closet containing pots and pans, knives, cutting boards, processing equipment, and assorted small wares necessary for the hands-on training.
Hospitality Management Lab
The Hospitality Management Lab focuses on the application of software packages for the lodging industry. The 32 computer stations are dedicated to guest management systems in the hotel industry, from reservations to final check-out and billing. Instruction in the housekeeping side of the business includes room design, room maintenance, and asset protection.
This lab is also used in other coursework ranging from accounting to senior seminars. This is the hub of the lodging side of our curriculum.
Multipurpose / Fireplace Room
This space is the signature student area in the building. Many of the components of the original Inn at NAU lobby and fireside area have been retained, including the fireplace. The fireside area itself features soft seating where students can relax, study, read the newspaper or meet informally.
Adjacent to the fireside area is an area configured like a coffee shop, with café-style seating. Banks of windows on the south side brighten the area. This room could also be used for formal meetings. It is hoped that the students will make this the centerpiece of the renovation.
The Commons / Café
The Commons is near the main entrance to the building and adjacent to the Multi-Purpose/ Fireplace room, so will have high visibility and traffic.
Banks of windows on the south side brighten the area. Access to the patio is on the south side of the building where students can relax outside.
The room is furnished with movable high top and low top tables and chairs to accommodate different types of seating arrangements and to allow for flexible use of the space.
This is also be the location of the student-run coffee bar, another component that will increase popularity of the area. Student groups will have the opportunity to raise funds for their organizations by operating the coffee bar. Operating the coffee bar in the Commons will prepare students to work with Jazzman's and Starbucks stores on campus.
The Patio Area
The patio area is a large outdoor space adjacent to the Commons and Demonstration Kitchen. The windows in both of those rooms look out over the Patio area, with ready access to the patio.
The Patio includes an area covered with brick pavers, along with inviting grassy areas where students and faculty will be able to relax in the lawn furniture and under several trees preserved during the renovation process.
Adjacent to the Patio, the Commons Area includes a coffee bar operated by HRM student groups (providing a fundraising opportunity for those groups). Coffee and beverage service will encourage faculty and students use of the Commons Area and Patio as meeting space and areas to enhance opportunities for interaction outside the classrooms.
The Patio will provide meeting space for student work groups and may also be used to host various receptions for the School.
As in any academic facility, the fundamental activity in the building is classroom instruction. There will be two main classrooms—one seating approximately 46 students and one seating approximately 48 students. These rooms are where many of the core classes will be taught.
Each room is equipped with a state-of-the-art multi-media lectern. Both rooms have furnishings that emphasize and enhance student learning. These are the two largest classrooms in the entire HRM complex, yet are still small in comparison to many other classrooms across campus—students will still be able to easily interact with the faculty and each other.
Small Group Room / Breakout Room
There are two eight-person small group rooms centrally located on either side of the Hospitality Management lab. This is a heavy traffic area with high visibility due to proximity to the hallway.
The purpose of these rooms is to facilitate the interaction that often takes place among students and faculty outside of the classroom. These rooms are a place for students and faculty to work, converse, and regroup in-between or during classes, lectures, or events.
These rooms will provide yet another opportunity to support the community for which HRM is so well known.
Dining Room/Beverage Lab
The Dining Room/Beverage Lab is located directly across from the demonstration kitchen lab. This multi-use facility is designed to serve several purposes; as the dining room for the kitchen lab classes, dining room for service classes, and beverage management lab that will facilitate instruction in beverage classes.
The atmosphere of the room will be designed to have the feel of a dining room rather than that of a standard classroom and can function in the training of proper table service as well as dining room and bar management. Students will have hands-on experience in the set-up of a dining room and bar, and learn how to structure a facility to deliver outstanding guest service in a traditional restaurant atmosphere.
Equipped with a full back bar and necessary equipment, the facility has the capability of serving as a classroom for lecture and demonstration in both beverage management classes and specialty classes in wines and beer.
The beverage management lab adds hands-on and demonstration components to the classes. Students benefit and are better prepared to begin their careers if they are able to participate in higher margin opportunities in the hospitality industry, such as the brewing and delivery process for craft beer, and perform the functions of a bartender. Students benefit from learning how to run a bar and dining room in a life-like environment.
The room is equipped with a closed circuit camera and viewing screen allowing the instructor to zoom in on demonstrations to give each student a clear view. The goal is to prepare students to manage these highly important components of the hospitality industry.
Seminar Room
The seminar room seats 24 people and has a highly flexible seating configuration. Virtually any kind of meeting could be held in this room. There is also state-of-the-art audio-visual equipment. This room is perfect for senior seminar and other classes where face-to-face interaction is critical.

Good afternoon lovelies!
It's been a few short but evidently growing weeks since my last post from this mama-to-be! Can you believe it that we are at 26 weeks and 5 days – 2 whole days shy from hitting 27 weeks, which per American Pregnancy Organization puts me in the third trimester!
Where did the time go?
Time is fleeting. Andy and I have met so many unfortunate and fortunate realities over the course of our newest beginning to include that as parents-to-be but more romantically, our new beginning as Andy and Valerie – getting our shit right for the final time (it took us 16 years to get here – and the path wasn't all that linear).
Anyway, I'm so fortunate to have Andy by my side. He has and continues to be my rock. Life is full of obstacles, burdens, blunders and at this moment the dichotomy of life and death has blinded my foresight – something I affirm to be a great strength of mine. There is so much ugliness in the world. Some of it is intentionally committed. Some of it takes shape as cancer. Some of it is concealed by mental disturbances. All of it is part of the journey of life. But I dislike it nonetheless. I accept that the ugly helps to contour the beauty.
And while I openly charge cancer for assault, disorderly conduct, disturbing the peace, drug trafficking, extortion, harassment, identity theft, robbery, securities fraud, and theft to name a few – I recognize that these convictions do not dilute the love in our eyes. The love is stronger. Braver. More courageous.
Cancer can break you. It can break your loved ones. What's healing is the love that manifests from places and people previously unknown to be there – but they were always there – silent champions for hope. There is so much magic in love. I can't get over how such a dark truth can blossom unyielding love, hope, admiration and prayers that light hope. I'm moved.
I'm nearing 27 weeks of pregnancy. Baby girl will be here in 13ish weeks! I'm incessantly happy over becoming a mother. And I can't stop thinking about how my sweet girl has given life to those I love – with whom she's never met. She is already a savior. She is my little Saint with mighty force in her belly kicks. She has already saved me from focusing on the things I cannot change.
It is because of my unborn daughter that I can see past some the ugly and stale states of reality in my peripheral vision. She is all I see. And when I see her I see my mother-in-law. I see Ori being held by a woman who embraces hard things with a brilliant smile, a fierce attitude and a gentle touch. This is the image I have. Every. Day. It feels like a memory. It envelopes me with warmth and peace. It's like describing a color I've never seen before but I know that it looks and feels like love. One. Of. A. Kind.
At times I pray in silent obstreperous fits pleading for a cure. It's not rational but do you know or have you known a rational pregnant woman? Cancer Can Suck It.
For any of you out there forced to struggle with grim realities, I hope you find magic in the moments that are ordinary. I hope you have a tribe of people who uplift you.
I am exceedingly blessed to have a man with whom he shares his heart with mine, who finds magic in the routine, acceptance in chaos, and loves courageously. It is because of him we are welcoming a daughter in this world who will embody his free-spirit of which he learned from his mother – a saint of saints. With each passing day I know that our little girl is one day closer to meeting her grandma. I can't wait for the day I can take a photograph of the moment imprinted in my vision. Those two girls will have so much love in their eyes. (okay, I am sobbing).
Thanks for stopping by!
PS – I love you Andy, Yoshie, and Oriana.

We don't often include Lancome on this site so it was a huge pleasure to come across their 'Rouge in Love' scheme here in Paris right now. Their 'Lips' installation created from a multitude of the lipsticks just works so well, don't you think? Its so wonderful to see a cosmetics brand produce something other than the usual large format graphic in their windows and we think you'll agree that this one is quite a winner?

This week, while most media spun out endless analyses of Mitt Romney's "47 percent" gaffe and Kate Middleton's topless photos, Nation interns turned their attention to other affairs—from new information revealing US culpability in a 30-year-old massacre, to a ballot box battle for labor rights in Michigan. The articles highlight destruction in Afghanistan, failures in the media (east and west), a positive step in the fight for transgender rights and much, much more.
Elisa Wouk Almino focuses on South America, particularly Brazil.
"Waste Land." PBS.
Muniz is a New York-based Brazilian artist who, in this movie, thinks of creative ways to use garbage and recyclable materials, while also inspiring socially marginalized groups to contribute to his project. This project is an example of ways in which public art can modify and draw attention to public space.
Nader Atassi focuses on Middle Eastern politics and society.
"A Preventable Massacre," by Seth Anziska. The New York Times, September 17, 2012.
On the 30th anniversary of the Sabra-Shatila massacre of Palestinian refugees, which were committed by Lebanese right-wing Phalangist forces with Israeli backing, Seth Anziska reveals new information obtained from the Israel State Archives on the United States's role. The article details how the US had the opportunity to put strong pressure on Israel to prevent the massacre from occurring, but chose not to do so, which resulted in the deaths of at least 800 Palestinian civilians on September 16, 1982, many of whom were women and children. A must-read for those interested in US-Israeli relations, and for those who are interested in how international relations can affect history in dramatic ways.
Jeff Ernsthausen focuses on domestic politics and the influence of money on public institutions.
"Michigan a Key Battleground for Labor Rights with Votes on Emergency Managers, Collective Bargaining." Democracy Now!, September 18, 2012.
On Tuesday, Democracy Now! traveled to Grand Rapids, Michigan to spotlight critical issues facing residents in the economically depressed battleground state. In this segment, investigative reporter Paul Abowd of the Center for Public Integrity discusses two ballot proposals backed by progressives to ward off Republican efforts to curtail collective bargaining rights and limit democracy in urban areas under the mantle of fiscal austerity. Proposal 1 is a referendum on the controversial Public Act 4 of 2011, which expanded the powers of emergency financial managers appointed by the governor to takeover cities or school systems facing a fiscal crisis, giving them the power to dismiss publicly elected officials and unilaterally renegotiate collective bargaining contracts with public employee unions. Proposal 2 would create a constitutional amendment that would prioritize collectively bargained contracts over local and state legislation, preempting a possible GOP push for "right-to-work" legislation and invalidating laws infringing on negotiated contracts, such as those passed in recent years limiting teachers unions's abilities to negotiate over issues such as evaluations and tenure. Full disclosure: Paul Abowd is a friend of mine.

Ipoh: Rookie drag-flicker Rupinder Pal Singh fired in a hat-trick as India made amends of their first match loss with a convincing 3-1 victory over Britain in the Azlan Shah hockey tournament on Friday.
Young Rupinder, who was included in the squad due to the absence of penalty corner specialist Sandeep Singh, struck in the 10th, 54th and 57th minutes to give depending champions India the upper hand against a strong Britain who had come here with a nearly full-strength side.
With the win, India, who had come here without at least half a dozen senior players, bounced back into the tournament in style after going down to South Korea 2-3 in their campaign opener.
India junior team regular member Rupinder, who had featured in a few internationals with the senior side last year, sent three low drag-flicks to sound the board of the opposition goal.
India, who dominated the midfield, converted three of the five penalty corners they earned in the match and led 3-0 before Britain pulled one goal back through James Tindall in the 62nd minute.
Britain, who are fine-tuning their team for next year`s Olympic Games at home, had defeated Malaysia 3-1 yesterday. After a couple of initial forays into rival territories by both teams, Rupinder opened the scoring for India in the 10th minute with a grounder that surprised Britain goalkeeper James Fair to sound the board.
At the other end, Indian goalkeeper Bharat Chhetri padded away three penalty corner shots as the defenders rushed out to narrow the angle for the British strikers. Just before the breather, Indian striker Roshan Minz broke into the rival circle from the left flank, but found no support from other forwards.
India increased the lead midway through the second session when Rupinder found the mark with a low push into the goal past the outstretched pads of the custodian in the 55th minute.
Two minutes later Rupinder completed his hat-trick, this time directing the drag-flick into the right side of the board as the goalkeeper moved to the other corner in anticipation of the shot.
India then went into the defensive to hold the lead, allowing Britain mid-field space. Britain had a couple of cracks at the Indian citadel.
Tindall found the target in the 62nd minute off a cross from the right. He also got another chance but shot wide past the bewildered Indian goalkeeper.

Next: Workarounds, Previous: Structure, Up: Configuration file [Contents][Index]
These should be put in the [Adapter] section.
Default: false
Whether the adapter should log all transactions with the interface and the engine. This should be necessary only to locate problems.
Default: adapter.log
The name of the log file. Note that it is put where the program was launched from, not into the engine directory.
WARNING: Log files are not cleared between sessions, and can become very large. It is safe to remove them though.
Default: false
Set this to "true" if you want the adapter to resign on behalf of the engine.
NOTE: Some engines display buggy scores from time to time although the best move is correct. Use this option only if you know what you are doing (e.g. you always check the final position of games).
Default: 3
Number of consecutive moves with "resign" score (see below) before the adapter resigns for the engine. Positions with only one legal move are ignored.
Default: 600
This is the score in centipawns that will trigger resign "counting".
Default: true
Show search information during engine pondering. Turning this off might be better for interactive use in some interfaces.
Default: false
Whether to kibitz when playing a move.
Default: false
Whether to kibitz when the PV is changed (new iteration or new best move).
Default: tellall
xboard command to use for kibitzing, normally "tellall" for kibitzing or "tellothers" for whispering.
Default: 5
How many seconds to wait before starting kibitzing. This has an affect only if "KibitzPV" is selected, move kibitzes are always sent regardless of the delay.
Default: false
Indicates whether the adapter should use a book. This has no effect
on the engine own book (which can be controlled with the UCI option
OwnBook in the [Engine] section). In particular, it is possible to
use both a PolyGlot book and an engine book. In that case, the engine
book will be used whenever PolyGlot is out of book. Remember that
PolyGlot is unaware of whether the engine is itself using a book or
Default: book.bin
The name of the (binary) book file. Note that PolyGlot will look for it in the directory it was launched from, not in the engine directory. Of course, full path can be used in which case the current directory does not matter.
If the file is not found in the current directory, it will be looked for in GNUCHESS_PKGDATADIR if the variable is defined, or in the package data directory otherwise.
Note that there is no option to control book usage. All parameters are fixed when compiling a PGN file into a binary book (see below). This is purposeful and is not likely to change.
Using a book does not require any additional memory, this can be important for memory-limited tournaments.
These are UCI options for the [Engine] section:
NullMove Pruning
(Always/Fail High/Never)
Default: Fail High
"Always" actually means the usual conditions (not in check, etc ...). "Fail High" adds the condition that the static evaluation fails high. Never use "Never" (ever)! OK you can use "Never" to test a Zugzwang problem.
I expect that this option has little effect (assuming the first two choices only). It was only added because most engines do not use the fail-high condition.
NullMove Reduction
(1-3 plies)
Default: 3
3 is rather aggressive, especially in the endgame. It seems better than always using 2 though.
Verification Search
Default: Endgame
This tries to solve some Zugzwang-related problems. It is expected to hardly have any effect in games. The default value should be sufficient for most-common Zugzwang situations.
Verification Reduction
(1-6 plies)
Default: 5
5 guarantees that the cost of verification search is negligible in most cases. Of course it means Zugzwang problems need a lot of depth to get solved, if ever! With such a reduction, verification search is similar to Vincent Diepeveen's "double null move".
History Pruning
Default: true
A bit dodgy, but fun to experiment with. It should help in blitz, but it's possible it actually hurts play in longer games.
History Threshold
Default: 60%
This is the thing, as it affects the search tree! Lower values are safer, and higher values more aggressive. THIS VALUE HAS NOT BEEN TUNED! There is a good chance Fruit's strength can be improved by changing this option.
Futility Pruning
Default: false
Very common but controversial. Makes the engine a tiny bit better at tactics but slightly weaker positionally. It might be beneficial by a very small amount, but has not been tested in conjunction with history pruning yet.
Futility Margin
Default: 100
This value is somewhat aggressive. It could lead to problems in the endgame. Larger values prune less but will lead to fewer positional errors.
Delta Pruning
Default: false
Similar to futility pruning. Probably safer because it is used mainly during the middlegame. Has not been tested with history pruning either.
Delta Margin
Default: 50
Same behaviour as futility margin. This one is probably safe.
Quiescence Check Plies
(0-2 plies)
Default: 1
Fruit tries safe (SEE >= 0) checks at the first plies of the quiescence search. 0 means no checks at all (as in most older engines). 1 is the same as previous versions of Fruit. 2 is probably not worth the extra cost. It could be interesting when solving mate problems though.
Evaluation options
Default: 100%
These options are evaluation-feature multipliers. You can modify Fruit's playing style to an extent or make Fruit weaker for instance by setting "Material" to a low value.
"Material" is obvious. It also includes the bishop-pair bonus. "Piece Activity": piece placement and mobility. "King Safety": mixed features related to the king during early phases "Pawn Structure": all pawn-only features (not passed pawns). "Passed Pawns": ... can you guess?
The following options were used in PolyGlot v1.4, but are deprecated in GNU Chess:
Default: GNU Chess
This is the name that will appear in the xboard interface. It is cosmetic only. You can use different names for tweaked versions of the same engine.
If no "Engine Name" is given, the UCI name will be used.
Default: .
Full path of the directory where the engine is installed. You can use "." (without the quotes) if you know that PolyGlot will be launched in the engine directory or the engine is in the "path" and does not need any data file.
Put here the name of the engine executable file. You can also add command-line arguments. Path searching is used and the current directory will be "EngineDir".
NOTE: Unix users are recommended to prepend "./"; this is required on some secure systems.

1. The company must "significantly further the accomplishment of one or more charitable or educational purposes," and would not have been formed but for its relationship to the accomplishment of such purpose(s);
2. "No significant purpose of the company is the production of income or the appreciation of property" (though the company is permitted to earn a profit); and
3. The company must not be organized "to accomplish any political or legislative purposes."These three requirements, which must be specified in the L3C's organizing document, deliberately mirror the requirements in the Internal Revenue Code governing Program-Related Investments (PRIs). Thus, the L3C is designed to mirror the IRS requirements for qualifying as a recipient of PRIs. However, the IRS has not ruled on whether investments to L3C's will qualify as PRIs and has publicly stated that foundations may not rely on L3C status in determining whether or not an investment qualifies as a PRI. According to Robert Lang, this is because the IRS has no authority to grant blanket approval to a class of business entity. However, in private letter rulings on PRIs the IRS has approved PRIs utilizing the LLC of which the L3C is a variant form. PRIs are investments made by private foundations, into for-profit business ventures, to support a charitable project or activity. PRIs may involve high risk, low return, or both, but are made by foundations despite those apparent drawbacks because they are intended to achieve charitable purposes—and, as a result, receive special treatment under the federal tax law. Federal tax law requires private foundations to distribute approximately five percent of their assets every year in grants - or by making "Program-Related Investments". Program Related Investments have been part of the law since 1969. PRIs often are structured as below-market-rate loans, but may take other forms as well, including loan guarantees, purchases of stock or other equity security (including membership in an LLC), and letters of credit. For example, the federal tax regulations governing PRIs describe a business enterprise in an economically disadvantaged area that will receive loans from financial institutions only after it receives a below-market loan from a private foundation, and conclude that the foundation's below-market loan qualifies as a PRI. The tax rules governing PRIs also permit private foundations to join conventional investors in financing enterprises that might—but are very unlikely to—provide the foundation a market-rate return. The key to a PRI is the foundation's motivation in making the investment. The legal form of the recipient is not determinative. Presently, few foundations choose to make significant PRIs, in large part because of the difficulty and expense of ensuring that a proposed investment will qualify as a PRI.

Meaford Museum is hosting a conference aimed at empowering Arts and Culture organizations to plan and implement programming for individuals with cognitive challenges on Monday May 8, 2017 at Meaford Hall Arts & Cultural Center.
This conference will present opportunities for community partnerships and programming.
Audience: Museums, Art Galleries, Arts and Culture Organizations, Long Term Care, Day Away programs, organizations working with individuals with cognitive challenges, Community Living and anyone in arts and culture environment - art, dance, music, history who would like to make their programs more inclusive.
Confirmed Sessions:
Belinda Deenik (Facile Perth)
Belinda Deenik is the Manager of Facile Grey/Bruce and a Life Coach. This interactive workshop will explore ways to build a meaningful life through community, citizenship and shared gifts. Individuals and family members will share their personal experience to deepen the learning.
Tomas Hanson (Brockville General Hospital) and Amy Mackie (Brockville Museum)
This workshop will focus on the unique 30-year partnership between a community museum, a hospital and a service club. The Artifact Therapy program began as a one-on-one hands-on program by Brockville Museum staff & volunteers for 5 patients. Originally, developed as a way for dementia patients to interact as well as rediscover our community's history, the audience has changed and expanded over the years. Join Tomas Hanson (Therapeutic Recreation Specialist, Brockville General Hospital) one of the founders of the program along with current presenter, Amy Mackie (Interpretation & Public Program Coordinator, Brockville Museum) to explore how our program brings history to life for those with dementia, other hospital patients and seniors. The presenters will delve into the history of the program, its benefits (both for the museum and the patients) and things to consider before running a similar program. We will also discuss how this program has adapted to the changing climate within our local hospital and how it is used in other facilities. A sample version of a program will be offered along with a chance to ask questions from both a museum and medical point of view.
Louise Stewart-Potts (MOVE FREE)
Louise is the founder of MOVE FREE, a dance class for those with Parkinson's disease, MS, Stroke and other movement disorders. This class explores your imagination, renews strength, energy, confidence and builds community. Join Louise in a hands on demonstration of the class. She began her dance journey at age 5 and has trained in many dance styles. Louise is a certified Dance It Out instructor. She has completed the Dance for Parkinson's Training through The National Ballet School of Canada and the Mark Morris Dance Center, New York City.
Jillian Passmore (Oshawa Museum)
Since 2014, the Oshawa Museum has provided the residents of Cedarcroft Place Retirement Residence with something to look forward to each month. What began as sporadic visits in 2010, turned into a monthly lecture series over the last three years. In discussing various aspects of the history of Oshawa, we provide an outlet for the residents to reminisce, and they in turn provide the Museum and Archives with oral histories that may otherwise be lost to time. There are many challenges that come with this – but lecture topic scheduling has been the most important for assisting the residents with recollection. Within my presentation, I will expand on the project and share some of the gems that have come out of my relationship with my friends at Cedarcroft.
Michael Van Huisseling (The Joseph Schneider Haus Museum) & Sue Cressman (Sunnyside) and panel.
The Joseph Schneider Haus Museum in Kitchener Ontario is a living history site that is owned and operated by the Region of Waterloo. Since opening in the early 1980's the museum has offered a wide variety of public programming with a focus on the Mennonite community that established themselves in the area in the early 1800's. In June of 2016 the museum, in partnership with Seniors' Services, Region of Waterloo, received grant funding from the Ontario Senior Secretariat to provide a new program called Sharing Stories Around the Fire. Through visits to the museum and outreach to day-program sites, this program provided seniors living with memory loss opportunity to take part in hands-on sensory stimulating activities and reminiscing conversations.
Carol McCurdy (Alzheimer Society of Grey Bruce)
Minds in Motion ® is a community-based social program that incorporates physical and mental stimulation for people with early to mid-stage signs of Alzheimer's disease or other dementias and their care partners. The Alzheimer Society Grey Bruce has been running this program for the last 3 years with expanding locations and numbers. Carol McCurdy, our Minds in Motion® Coordinator will discuss program content and the importance of activities as part of overall health and wellness for participants. She will share what participants are saying about the program, what are the inspiring benefits and how we have used feedback from our clients to enhance the program.

APAEB organizes and trains farmers in an impoverished region of Brazil, helping them forge links with international markets.
Focus: Education, Environment, Microfinance, Rural Development, Trade
Geographic Area of Impact: Brazil
Model: Social Business
Number of Direct Beneficiaries: 12,000 (2010)
Annual Budget: US$ 7.5 Million (2010)
Percentage Earned Revenue: 96%
Recognition: Social Entrepreneur of the Year, Brazil, 2001
In Brazil, the country with the highest income inequality in the world, the bottom 10% of the population control less than 1% of the country's wealth. The hinterland population in northern and north-eastern Brazil has grown by 59% over the past two decades, putting an increased strain on water resources for the already drought prone region. In the middle of the hinterland in the state of Bahia lies Valente, a small town with 23,000 inhabitants considered among the poorest in the region. Most farms are 11 hectares or less and suffer from dry, infertile soil. The government considers them unsustainable and therefore has limited the water resources flowing to these small farmers, creating significant hardship for the farmers.
Innovation and Activities
APAEB is a cooperative of small sisal growers based in the interior of Bahia, demonstrating how agricultural workers can organize themselves to succeed in the global economy. APAEB began by helping farmers to collectively market their sisal crop (an agave plant whose fibres are used to make ropes, rugs and brushes). As it grew, APAEB fought for export rights, forged links with foreign markets and built processing plants and a factory, and now exports millions of dollars worth of quality, finished products. A winner of numerous awards, it has influenced similar practices across Brazil.
APAEB has built an international bridge linking small agricultural producers with international markets. This process entails organizing and training local farmers with little formal education to manage complex manufacturing processes, while increasing financing from banks and donor agencies, and developing lasting relationships with foreign buyers based on economic self-interest, quality workmanship and mutual respect. Since the construction of its multimillion dollar carpet factory in 1997 in the middle of the semi-arid region, APAEB's revenues have increased 400%, while prices for raw sisal have risen dramatically. With more than 800 employees and revenue of US$ 7 million, APAEB has brought a powerful economic multiplier effect to an impoverished region where half a million people are estimated to derive a portion of their livelihood from sisal.
The Entrepreneur
Ismael Ferreira is the youngest child of a sisal grower from Valente. During the 1970s, at the time of the military dictatorship in Brazil, two Italian priests organized community meetings in Valente and the surrounding areas to discuss the exploitation of workers and small farmers. At the age of only 12, he participated in these gatherings along with his parents and brothers. In 1980, 30 families participated in the formal creation of APAEB. Ferreira was one of the co-founders and became the General Manager. He overcame deep resistance to the cooperative idea and fought for four years with government officials and business interests to establish APAEB as an exporter, in order to capture profits that had traditionally gone to intermediaries.

3DR Solo 3-Blade Upgrade Propellers - 3MR-SL - 9x4.5 Prop Set x4 Black
$ 21.69
The Propeller Diameter is equal to the diameter of a circle drawn by the propeller tips during rotation. For 2 blade propellers the diameter is equal to the length of the propeller from tip to tip. For 3 and more blades, the diameter can be derived by 2x the length of the single blade (from tip to center).
The Pitch is defined as the distance the propeller would travel forward in one revolution if it was moving through a soft solid (like a screw through wood).
Normal (N) - Tractor
Reverse (R) - Pusher
also known as P-type, direction of rotation is established when a propeller is rotating clockwise (CW), as seen by an outside observer standing in front of the propeller and looking at it.
Shaft Diameter
The shaft diameter is equal to the size of the orifice at the center of the propeller where the motor shaft is connected. Since shaft diameters differ from engine to engine, some propellers are manufactured with 2 shaft diameters (pre-drilled on the back) for easy adaptation. Some propellers, as the 3 Blade and Electric Only Series, include Adaptor Ring Sleeves which can adjust the the shaft diameter to several inch or mm sizes.
Hub Thickness
The Hub Thickness is usually used to determine the necessary engine shaft length so there is enough space for connecting the propeller and the cap or the spinner.

Every once in a while I come across a gardening reference book that reads like a delicious novel, filled with fabulous conversational writing, sage advice, and enlivened wit leafy villains, thugs and heroes. What delightful book is this?
It is Jodi DeLong's recently released book, [amazon_link id="1551097982″ target="_blank" ]Plants for Atlantic Gardens: Handsome and Hard-Working Shrubs, Trees and Perennials[/amazon_link], released by Nimbus Publishing! A fabulous collection of plant profiles….
Written on Saturday, March 26, 2011 in Book & Product Reviews
Woke up Monday morning to -11 degree Celsius (12 degree Fahrenheit) with a wind chill of -20 degree Celsius (-4 degree Fahrenheit). With these cold temperatures it's hard to believe that the official start of Spring is less than two weeks away and that anything will be growing by then.
But the cold and the lack of vibrant green growth got me thinking about last summer's trip to the largest gypsum dune field in the world: Whites Sands National Monument Park in south-central New Mexico at the northern end of the Chihuahuan Desert. Here embedded in the pure white gypsum sands, numerous plants and animals survive, nay thrive, in this inhospitable environment.

I do appreciate your reply mikestrong
No, I am not saying I would only buy from a person of color, I am just saying I have only "seen" very few people of color at GRAND new home communities. Which I feel is racist AND I know 6 people of color who applied went to the so called Monday night interview and all have experience and guess what, none of them hired..
all worked for choice homes, all licensed agents and none of them hired!!
I am black and white, so it does not matter who sells me the home.
Again, my experience with Grand very very snobby people.
worked for Choice and loved it, problem I do not want to work for a builder who is not respected and I do not believe in the product im selling.. my license is inactive and I am looking
I think in this market experience and track record will win the day. Most home builders are worried about money. They want success. Not color. With that said, every great job I have had came from the fact I new someone that did well at the company and that came from meeting as many people as possible over the years and befriending. I would imagine that this is even more true now.

Grand Homes in Allen
Posted: Mon May 18, 2009 12:13 am
Having worked for an affiliate of The Drees Company for nearly 5 years, I can tell you that there is no better company to build your home. They are very solid financially and have excellent people in the organization at all levels. I had a home built by a competitor and asked an associate in construction to walk my house and do a punch list. He found many items, some of which the city inspector had missed. You will not go wrong with Drees. As for the other builder you are considering, I agree with some of the others who have commented: Ask their current homeowners how they were treated, ESPECIALLY after closing. Good luck!

My 2 cents, if you are looking at buying a home in the $350K+ market (in the D/FW area) then neither Grand or Drees are your best choice. I would look at Darling Homes. I personally think they have a better looking design / layout and they always rank high on the JD Powers listing.

Grand now displays "Home builder of the year". What a joke. If buyers just understood what it takes to get the award. They sure don't display the last several years when they had the lowest customer satisfaction of any builder on the J.D. Power surveys

Grand says the won the Consummers Choice Award in 07, 08, 09. I have tried to google information on this award and find nothing. Is this like getting a doctors degree through the mail? Anyone know any details on who give the award?

I found a site for them, consumersdchoiceaward.com. It appears that they are a "Pay for award" company based in Atlanta. I found information for 2008 and Grand won under the "Home Improvement" catagory. It's like Consumer's Digest who wants people to think their ratings are from Consumer's Reports.

Ironically, the list is headed up by Advanced Foundation Repair.

Back in Jan 2007 (if I recall corrrectly) Grand had signs up that said "2007 Builder of the Year". I had to laugh... I thought that's an award you would get at the end of the year for 2007.
How Hokey can you get and it's a shame they advertise such BS to the public. It goes with their "Free Pool" Never saw one of their free pools.
There homes are hard to resale.

McSam serves its purpose, but readers should understand that to win a McSam award you have to apply for it, (or maybe be nominated by a supplier or manager).
It is not like the McSam committee goes out and searches for the best builder. I also think their criteria is sales, marketing and design oriented, not based on customer service or construction quality.
JD Powers, with all its flaws, at least surveys and considers all builders who build at least the minimum number of houses. (I think it is 150)

Emilia Clarke's Broadway play Breakfast At Tiffany's is set to close just one month after opening due to poor ticket sales.
The Games of Thrones star took on the role of Holly Golightly, made famous by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 film, in a new stage production of Truman Capote's classic novella.
However, the play was panned by critics, with reviewers branding the show "dull" and "disappointing", and producers have now announced they will close Breakfast At Tiffany's after the matinee performance on Sunday (21Apr13).
The production opened at the Cort Theater in New York City last month (20Mar13).
It becomes the latest production to make a quick exit from Broadway this season - Debra Winger's The Anarchist and Henry Winkler's The Performers both closed early.

Santorum: "We Win" On Issues, But Lose On Romney's Bain Record And Likeability
Rick Santorum says Republicans win on issues, but if that message doesn't get out, they lose: "If the campaign is about issues, we win. If it's about Mitt Romney's record as a businessman, then we don't win. If it's about Mitt Romney's tax returns, then we don't win. If it's about whether people like Mitt Romney more than Barack Obama, then we don't win."

If you read the about page on this site you at least from a thirty thousand foot perspective of why I created this website. But you may be asking, 'Why did I choose DaddyGoofball.com?' as the domain name or web address?
To answer that question you'll have to know a little bit about me and DaddyGoofball is who I am. In this article I am going to attempt to answer where the DaddyGoofball name comes from and how it came to be. The short answer is that this became my online persona in the early 2000s right after I became a parent.
We will need to break it down into two terms. First and foremost I am a father, parent, and a daddy. Some people, especially those that do not have children or grew up without that role, may initially think that statement is just repeating that term in a series. It really isn't.
A father leads. Leadership is not a command, a conquering rule, or a dictatorship. To me, it is setting an example for my children to follow. Am I the type of person I would want my children to become? Would I be happy if one of my children brought someone like me to date when they're at the appropriate age? If the answer is no to either of those questions then I am not a father and i need to change something to become the father I am supposed to be.
A parent nurchurs and develops. As a parent it is my job to mold my small humans into the responsible contributing members of society. Granted there are other people in their lives that will help direct that development but growth should start at home. It is my job to create the foundation and give the individual confidence, encouragement and discipline they need to enable them as individuals and empower them to set their own goals later and reach for the stars.
A daddy loves unconditionally just as his children love him. What is unconditional love? There are no words that could possibly define it. We are all born into it. We are all capable of it. As my children love me without conditions or strings I will love them with every fiber of my being. There will be times that the child will hate their father or not agree with their parent but they will always know that their daddy will love them unconditionally.
I call it the paternal trinity. This is not limited to a paternal role. The maternal role is the same simply replace father with mother and daddy with mommy. Do not mistake this for a religious doctrine but as a parent this commitment as important if not more important as one might have with a faith.
What is a Goofball? Dictionary.com defines Goofball as a silly person. Well, they have a few other definitions but that is the one I am going with, That is who I am. I am silly, I am an optimistic person, by choice. All my clouds have a silver lining and I live and focus on that lining. A dear friend of mine would say "All my rainy days have blue skies".
I am only serious when I have to be. I would argue that I am more serious on this site that I am in person. I am responsible, I pay my bills and debts. When I do wrong I make every effort to correct the mistake or give back in other ways. Life is about balance and I choose to live on the positive side. I do believe in karma in the sense that you take out more than you put in. I love to have fun and I don't waste too much time worrying about yesterday or tomorrow.
I am divorced, this thing happened. I cannot change it. I can only learn from it and grow from it which helps me move past it. I really don't have a choice on this one. I have to grow and set that as an example for those smaller humans I am responsible for, because when they grow older and have relationships of their own they will look to me as an example in their own relationships in the future. Change is how we grow, sometimes growth is painful, and that is okay. Its how we change and grow is what is important.
Did I grow into a bitter individual? Absolutely not. It takes two people to make a relationship work and I want to set a better example than that.

Circular Manor is a beautiful Victorian home in a wonderful location in Saratoga. Walking distance to both the racetrack and the downtown area with its shops and restaurants. Breakfast was delicious. Service was great. Dieder put out tea and coffee and scone early so we had something to take to the backstretch early in the morn. And then there was a terrific breakfast later when we got back and were hungry. A great option when you are staying in Saratoga.

Repeat customer and just love this beautiful home. The owners went above and beyond to make us welcome. The breakfast options were all delicious. Can't wait to return

My husband and I spent a night here on our way back from Maine. The hosts, Michelle and Dieter, were so friendly and accommodating! Our room was decorated so nicely and was extremely comfortable! The B&B is within walking distance to many restaurants and shops too. We ate dinner at Sperry's and enjoyed it very much. Our hosts served an elegant breakfast the next morning which was delicious and they even took into account my food sensitivities. I would definitely recommend staying here at Circular Manor! Hope to stay here again when we're in town next!

We had a wonderful stay at Circular Manor. Michele greeted us at the door and made us feel right at home. Our room was very spacicious and cozy and the breakfast was delicious. It's also a quick walk to the downtown. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Located only a few blocks from Broadway, this beautifully restored B&B is our go-to home away from home when visiting Saratoga. The hosts, Dieter and Michelle, are truly great at what they do and continue to impress with each visit. The rooms are beautiful, clean and comfortable. On-site parking is available and whether you're in town for the food, farmer's market or track, you can leave the car and walk everywhere. Their breakfast is always top notch and yes, the pancakes are that good. The porch is great for enjoying a cup of coffee in the morning or relaxing in the evening with a glass of wine. Skip the hotels and stay here if you want a true Saratoga experience.

We stayed here to see the Mumford and Sons concert, they recommended a great Belgian bar where we had mussels and shrimp tacos to die for, best food with a flair of "different" that Id had in a long time. Check in was quick and efficient, parking was on the premise, walking distance to all the town shops, bars, restaurants...and when it came time to get to the concert and we found the cabs would not let you book early and then there was an hour wait for one...the owner shuttled us through the back roads and dropped us off personally! Frittata breakfast was fantastic and impressed my husband while we sat on the porch table set for two with all natural tea and honey, that was amazing. It was the great getaway for 2 busy parents where we felt totally relaxed and didn't have to worry about any details, the owners took care of all the detail for us. Amazing stay, we will be back and we will recommend it to others too!

My husband and I just returned from our wonderful week-end getaway in Saratoga Springs, NY. Staying at Circular Manor Inn was definitely one of the most pleasant and memorable parts of our trip. From the very first lucky click online and making a reservation at http://www.circularmanor.com to our day of departure from the Inn, we were warmed by most friendly & attentive service from the Innkeepers - Michele and Dietre. We are very grateful for the warm welcome and for such a wonderful stay, crowned by absolutely scrumptious gourmet breakfast made of the beautiful freshest ingredients, accompanied by fragrant herbal-berry tea (my personal favorite indulgence :-)) and orange-papaya-mango juice (yummm! :-)) Fresh coffee was made bright and early for all who enjoy a cup of coffee at sunrise ;-) The Inn itself deserves many high praises too! It is very conveniently located within walking distance from some of the most important landmarks, parks and best restaurants of Saratoga Springs. The house has an amazing quality about it: tasteful antique decor transports you back in time, all the while maintaining light, airy and relaxing energy. Everything is impeccably clean and well-cared for. It is easy to feel at home as soon as you cross the threshold of Circular Manor - both the hosts and the house are so inviting! We are thankful and hope to come back again soon. Sincerely, Tina&Andy

You may not pick many winners at the races at Saratoga but you will have a "sure thing" in the Circular Manor B&B. The home is beautiful and located in perfect walking distance to all that Saratoga Springs has to offer. Hosts Michele and Dieter go above and beyond to make sure your stay is all you want it to be. They even made a few suggestions, at our request, for places to go and see that were not on our original vacation list. We just stayed there for Saratoga Race Course's opening weekend (July 18 - 21) and are already thinking about and planning a return visit. You can be "sure" that Circular Manor will be in our plans.

This is a wonderful option when visiting Saratoga. It is on a corner lot at Caroline and Circular. A nifty wraparound porch allows for outdoor viewing of either street. The building dates back to 1903 and is loaded with that historic feel, high ceilings, hardwood trim, wooded stairway, landscaped yard and convenient offstreet parking. Dieter and Michelle are outgoing, conversant, pleasant and attentive.There are five bedrooms to choose from, all with their own charming decor. Dieter is the chef and offers a number of options for breakfast, ranging from frittatas, quiche, omelets, pancakes. Fresh scones and coffee await each morning prior to breakfast. This is a small BandB where each visitor feels special and not one of a crowd. It offers an extremely close option to the nitelife on Caroline St and downtown Saratoga. It is just 2 blocks from the Parting Glass, arguably the best Irish pub in America. We would definitely recommend it for those who like to park their cars and be able to walk to everything. The track is about a ten minute walk away. Congress Park about 3 minutes away. Stay here and you will not be dissappointed.
The Seasons Room is a lovely room decorated in burgundy florals. The fire place has an elegant quarter-sawn oak mantle and marble hearth. The private bath features an antique over sized claw foot tub and shower.
The Garden Room features a queen size four poster bed. A combination of period antiques and French Country style pieces, give this room a whimsical garden feeling. The bath has an Art Deco pedestal sink and claw foot tub with shower.
The Cottage Room offers an English cottage feel complemented by turn of the century cherry and walnut antiques. A Queen size Eastlake bed adds to the room's decorative charm. The bathroom utilizes the Victorian water closets with a seperate shower room.
The Sage Room has shades of sage and coral that beautifully accent walnut antiques. A matching chair and mirror, both heirlooms from the family owned Finn's Hotel, complete the Victorian Decor. The bath features a Belle Epoque sink and claw foot tub.

Frequently Asked Questions - PowerPoint (Microsoft)
In PowerPoint 2007, how can I get the Slide Master to change a footer from a prior presentation?
Go to Insert > Header and Footer to add the text -- or at least to "activate" it. Just typing in the footer box on the slide masters doesn't make the footers show up on the slides.
How do I print multiple power points on one page?
If using Quick View - Open the power point you wish to print. Go up to File in the menu bar and click on Page Setup. Click on Properties. In Document Options, select the number of slides per sheet.
Why can't I convert a file created in Presentations 8 with v.10 modifications to a PowerPoint slide show?
This is a bug in Presentations 10. Since the goal of converting the slide show to PowerPoint was so that students could take the file for review or printing of individual slides, it is suggested that the file be converted to .pdf format.
Why does a Presentations 8 document converted to a PowerPoint slide show change the backgrounds?
The conversion can only handle one background per slide show and defaults to the first background created.
I saved my MS Office document on a public computer to either the Desktop or My Documents, and now I can't find it. Where is it?
Re-open the MS application (Word, Excel, or PowerPoint) on the same computer on which you saved your document using the same username and password for authentication as before, and you should be able to find and open the document. Save it from the application to your own CD or USB storage device
Why can't I save my MS Office document to a CD/DVD?
Not all CD-rom recording programs let you save a file from an office program directly. A workaround is to save to the harddrive (U:\ drive on Mills, Innis, and Thode public PCs) first and then burn the file to CD/DVD. For more information, see this page.
How can I view or print my Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, or Powerpoint) file from a library computer?
Microsoft Office Suite is installed on selected computers for creating, editing, or printing files; authorization by MAC ID is required. Note: this software is also installed on computers in the UTS computer labs, see: UTS student technology centre.
Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint Viewers are installed on most public stations in Mills, Innis, and Thode Libraries for users to view or print MS files.
To view or print your Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file from any public station using the Microsoft Viewers:
- Click Start, then Programs
- Click Microsoft Accessories
- Select the appropriate application (Word, Excel, or PowerPoint Viewer)
- In the "Open" dialogue box, change "Look in" to the appropriate drive for your file
- Select your file, then click Open
- Click Print
- Follow the instructions on How to Send a Job to the Networked Public Printer
How do I open (and print) an e-mail attachment on public computers?
- Right-click on the attachment and save the file to the RAMDISK (U:). If there is no RAMDISK (U:) listed, save the file to the Desktop.
- Open the appropriate application (Note: if you saved the file to the Desktop and it is an MS Office document, use the appropriate MS application or viewer)
- Click File... Open.
- Locate your file on drive U (or the Desktop), and open it.
Related links:
How can I open a Word, Excel or Powerpoint e-mail attachment on your public computers?
You will first need to save your attachment to the RAMDISK which has been assigned drive U on the public computers in Mills, Innis and Thode. Then start the Microsoft Office application (non-McMaster users will need to open the Microsoft viewer) and open the file from drive U.
Why doesn't a PowerPoint slide show open from a link in Internet Explorer?
This is a known problem with Internet Explorer. Save the file to the PC or storage device before opening.
How do I open a file from a floppy disc, CD, or keychain drive on a PC in the Library?
Users can open pdf or html files from a floppy disc or keychain drive by using the My Computer icon in the Programs menu of public stations. To open Word, Excel, or PowerPoint files on library computers, see this FAQ.
Browsers: opening from the File menu of the web browser on public PCs was disallowed due to a bug. Instead, public users can open documents by clicking Start button, Programs, My Computer, selecting the drive and filename.
How often do you clean files that have been stored on the U drive of the Mills, Innis and Thode public computers?
Files saved on the U drive (virtual RAM disk) are cleared each time the machine is restarted. There are competing requirements for the need to clear these files in that most students do not want their documents to stay on a publicly accessible computer; on the other hand, when something goes wrong, file retention would be an asset. Also, if files were allowed to accumulate on the hard drive, performance would deteriorate.
Do you have Microsoft Office Suite installed on your public computers?
Updated answer here.

Miss Money booked this B&B on Booking.com. It was the only cheap place and somewhere near the ocean when she booked it. (We couldn't see the ocean from where we stayed by the way).
Unfortunately the weather was not on our side that weekend. :( I was quite miserable when I got there.
The one member of staff who showed us to our room was nice and told us where to go to find food. It's quite a big B&B... there are other B&B's along the same road by the way.
The guy said we could pay at that point or the next morning... We should have paid that evening as we had to leave early the next morning!!!
There is a big living room area which we didn't explore.
The bathroom attached is a bit small, the ceiling light didn't actually work so we had to use the mirror light to see - we weren't told that. The shower was powerful though. Felt like I was almost back to normal after going up the Cliffs earlier. Heheheh.
Got a really good night's sleep for the first time during that weekend. Didn't want to wake up.
During the morning, I had to call one of the persons on reception that evening as we hadn't paid and wanted an early check out... The woman was not happy with us as check out is at 8am or 8.30... It was kind of our fault for not paying earlier and forgetting to let them know. ¬_¬"" Anyway, we left our money (mostly change) for them in a torn up envelope which I had put into the bin earlier, and then we left the key in the door for them to collect afterwards...
We were quite grateful for this action... I called them later to see if they had collected the money etc. They did. ^_^
Thanks Ocean Crest for being flexible with us... we had to get the very early bus to Dublin that morning.

4 Ways to Banish BBQ-Related Food Poisoning
Summertime is BBQ time! It's a time to dust off our grills and buy the meats, poultry, fish, and vegetables we love and invite the gang over for tasty, but tempting meals. Barbecuing also means being careful and learning how to avoid food poisoning. Here are four tips for a bacteria-free BBQ.
1. Understand Food Cross-Contamination
Even the little ones love a hot dog or burger, but to avoid food poisoning and the need for pediatric urgent care, or adult medical care, don't cross-contaminate food. This simply means not allowing the raw juices of foods, such as meats, to come in contact with other foods.
Uncooked meat and fish are full of juices, but if these juices contact other foods like a hotdog, vegetables or fall into a salad, they can spread bacteria and cause food poisoning. Avoid the chances of raw juices mixing with other foods by using separate cooking plates and cleaning plates and utensils before reuse.
2. Don't Leave Foods Out in the Heat
Salads made with mayonnaise or other dairy products don't last long in the sun. Women's Health.com says a good rule of thumb is to "Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold."
That means leaving hot food on the grill or in warming dish until it's served. Likewise, cold foods like potato salads, deviled eggs, and macaroni salads should be kept fresh and clear of bacteria by using ice blocks inside coolers or large tubs.
3. Cook Foods Thoroughly
You might want a medium-rare burger, but it's best to cook foods thoroughly to avoid food poisoning. If you're the chef, use a cooking thermometer and test meats, poultry and fish before serving and keep these temperatures in mind:
- Don't serve poultry until the thermostat reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit
- Ground meat for burgers should reach 160 degrees Fahrenheit
- Steaks and other chops need to reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit
- Fish should be cooked until 140 degrees Fahrenheit
Chefs shouldn't add veggies or other elements to meats, poultry or fish until they are fully cooked. If you're not the chef and receive something uncooked, do ask the chef to cook it a bit longer.
4. Clean, Clean, Clean!
Food poisoning causes stomach or intestinal cramps, vomiting, nausea and fever. If you want to steer clear of these nasty symptoms, keep everything clean when preparing and cooking food.
This means fully cleaning the BBQ smoker, gas grill or charcoal grill. We often leave cooking utensils and wire brushes outside after grilling but these should also be cleaned before starting your summertime BBQ.
Washing your hands is essential when preparing raw foods. Never prepare raw chicken and then make a salad. Wash hands in between food prep and cooking.
If you're taking uncooked food to a family barbecue, make sure all meats, fish, poultry, and veggies are in separate containers or food storage bags. If it's a long drive to your event, put containers and storage bags inside a cooler with ice to prevent them from spoiling.
No one wants to endure food poisoning but with care, cleanliness, and the proper storage, family BBQs will always be fun.

The life of famed comedian Jerry Lewis was celebrated in Las Vegas, where host Tony Orlando told funny stories in an event that was more joyous than gloomy, as the comic would have wanted.
"We lost a great one," said Orlando, who co-hosted the annual Jerry Lewis MDA Labor Day Telethon for decades. "The man who generated those laughs was Jerry Lewis. We are going to miss him. Imprint, today, every laugh he ever gave you."
Orlando spoke to more than 400 friends and family Monday.
Lewis' muscular dystrophy telethons were a Labor Day staple for more than 40 years. From the 1960s onward, the telethons raised about $1.5 billion, including more than $60...
