{Update: See my favorite baby products for 2017 right here!}
Well this post took me much longer than it should have to get up! But there were so many amazing products at the ABC Kids Expo and I had the hardest time deciding which ones to share with you. I had hundreds of pics of products on my phone to sort through, but I finally narrowed it down to my top 25. So here we go, for round #1 at least. More round-ups on other days, including car seats & strollers, of course! And sleep sacks too, because there are so many options these days!
1 | The OXO Tot Sprout Chair in new colors! I actually squealed when I walked past this display. OXO Tot is adding white, gray, & black highchairs as well as gray & navy seat cushions to the lineup. With all the current color options plus the new ones, there will be a total of 30 options to choose from! Available for purchase from Amazon.
2 | Fridababy's new thermometer, the FeverFrida! This thermometer checks your baby's temperature every four seconds through a little bluetooth monitor patch placed under their arm & will send an alert to your smart phone when the temperature rises above a predetermined threshold. No need to wake & disturb your sick babe. So smart. Available for purchase from Amazon.
3 | The all new Mini Mat by EZPZ. This brand launched last year with their silicone placemats that suction to the surface of tables, keeping your kid's food off the floor. They're adding a mini mat in November that will be a better fit for most high chair trays. Available for purchase from EZPZ or through Amazon.
4 | The DockATot mult-functional lounging and playing pod that is all the rage with the babies these days. They keep baby surrounded in a comfortable and snug environment whether playing, lounging, or working on tummy time. They come in two sizes ranging from 0-36 months, and are made with the highest quality materials. Available for purchase from Amazon.
5 | Jack N' Jill natural toothpaste for babies & kids. This stuff was new to me and now I'm now obsessed! It's all natural, color free, sugar free, preservative free, and sweetened with all organic natural flavors. And can I just tell you how yummy it is? Plus I'm a sucker for good packaging, which just happens to be recyclable and BPA free! Available for purchase at Amazon.
6 | The Munch Mitt Baby Teething Mitten. It features a textured flexible surface that provides soothing teething relief, plus it'll keep little ones entertained with its crinkly noise and stimulating black & white pattern. It's made from food grade silicone and is BPA and phthalate-free. Available for purchase at Amazon.
7 | Modern-Twist's Mark-Mat silicone coloring placemats. These reusable coloring placemats are made from food-grade silicone. Kids can color them with the included dry-erase markers, then simply wipe clean and start over! Perfect for keeping little ones entertained at restaurants. Available for purchase through Amazon.
8 | Neat Cheeks flavored face wipes for kids in peach. You've probably seen scented face wipes, but these ones are even better because they're flavored with the natural plant extract Stevia. They make it much less of a battle to clean your kid's face. Available for purchase on Amazon. (Image via Neat Cheeks Instagram)
9 | The Guidelight by SnapPower. I love these because they're clean looking, and you don't have to worry about your little ones trying to play with a plugged in nightlight. I want one for every room in our house. Available for purchase on Amazon.
10 | The sweetest bath time friends by SoapSox! These are so fun & clever. They're washcloth plush animals that you get wet, "feed" with liquid or bar soap, and then foam up for bath time! They're anti-microbial, machine washable, and have an optional string you can use to hang them to dry. The ones pictured below are the newer, smaller Soap Pals that will be released in the spring. SoapSox can be purchased on Amazon.
11 | New fashions for the classic Ergobaby Baby Carrier are coming this fall, including Black Twill, Sailor, & Tan Linen. You can also now get the Ergobaby Four Position 360 in two new colors including Pure Black and Taupe/Linen.

14 | The 4moms High Chair. This thing has magnets in the tray to guide it right into place. And not only that, but the tray top also has magnets in it to keep the corresponding magnetic dishes in place, hopefully reducing the amount of dishes thrown on the floor! I love how sleek it is, and the one-piece insert will make it easy to clean. Available for purchase from Amazon.
15 | Re-Play Recycled Tableware. These toddler dishes are made out of recycled milk jugs right here in the USA, plus they're super durable and lightweight. I absolutely love the addition of white to the line-up. Available for purchase from Re-Play or Amazon.

On Saturday, 28th October, the marina's elegant Boat House venue will transform into the 'bake off' tent for the Great British Bump Off in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

Well, it has come down between two colors. I like both of them, and either one will look great in my kitchen. I just have to decide between one or the other.
Which would you choose for my kitchen?
Just a reminder... This is what the kitchen looks like and it opens up onto the living room...
Here's the view of the living room from the kitchen...
Now, one thing you CAN ignore is the color of the lower cabinets. They are going to be painted the same color as the upper cabinets, so the color of the oak is not an issue. Neither is the color of the floor, because that will be changed eventually also.
One thing you might want to know when making your decision is the kitchen does not get a lot of natural light.
Okay... So which would you choose... Valspar Celery Root or Valspar Roasted Garlic.
Thanks for the help!!!

Yes, it's been a while since I added to this blog. I apologize to anyone who has been looking for an update.
Lately I have been travelling and working in the garden which, thanks to plentiful rain, is now looking luscious.
Have I been writing, you ask? Well, those who know me can tell you I am always writing. It is a mental stimulation and at the same time, relaxing, for me to go to my desk every day and write to see what has been happening to my characters.
At the moment I am about half way through an additional book to the Seven Days Series. This one looks at events happening in a luxury resort in Mexico when a three-generation family shares a large apartment there for one week. It's called Seven Days Away.
Now, the book is going well but it has a different cast of characters from the previous three novels in the series. However, you will find a connection to the original three if you look patiently. In the meantime you will be intrigued by the Becks, the Andersons and the various reasons why they accepted the invitation from the senior member of the family to spend a week in paradise.
I have spent several weeks in this resort so I know the setting very well. Soon this novel will be another e book, I hope.
Meantime, I am in the process of converting Seven Days There to a paperback for distribution to all my readers who prefer that format. Quite different from the way I have worked before when I wrote, then published in paperback and finally went to the e book system on Amazon, with a great deal of help, I must add . Ah, the wonders of technology!

Lets get started with my yet another hub on Java Tutorials. I am going to give a good tutorial on Variables and Data types used in Java programming language. The objective of this hub is to make you familiar with few questions i.e.
What is a Variable ?.
What is a Data Type ?.
How to declare Variables ?.
How to initialize a Variable ?.
How to access a Variable ?.
What are Constants ?.
How is Automatic Conversions done ?.
How Explicit Conversions work ?.
Lets begin with explanation of each of questions above.
What is a Variable ?.
Variables are the temporaryelements in Java which are used to store information about a program. Variables are highly used in Java. It resides in memory and are temporary placeholder for information needed to use in a program. Since value of a variable exists in memory therefore as soon as program exits value is lost. Each variable in Java has a type and a value. Since Java is strongly typed language, therefore each variable used is associated with type. Generally few language out there in market are loosely typed i.e any information can be stored in variable, Whereas in Java data type provides user information that whether variable is integer, string or float etc. The value of variable can be changed anytime in a program, unless the variables are marked with a keyword final. Generally final variables are constants, once a value is assigned to them it does not change.
What is a Data Type ?.
Java is a strongly typed language. It means that for each variable defined there must be a data type associated with it. In Java data types provides developers an idea about the size of variables, a range of values that a variable can therefore store and also about operators that can be used with it. All data stored in a variables are Objects, having exception as primitive data types. Data types used in Java are platform independent, i.e a integer can store same size of data on different platforms such as windows, unix etc. There size to store data is platform independent. This has helped developers a lot, because they now don't need to convert one data type to other when switching the same code on different platforms.
Now let us look at some of the data types available to us in Java.
Integer Data Types
Integer Data Types has capability to store integer values. Generally there are 5 types of Integer data types available in Java. Let look and classify them.
Floating Point Data Types
Floating Point Data Types has capability to store integer and floating point values. Generally there are 2 types of floating point data types available in Java. Lets look and classify them.
Boolean Data Types
Boolean Data Types has capability to store true and false values. Lets look and classify them.
How to Declare a Variable ?
Now that we know something about variables and data types, we can easily understand how to declare a variable. Generally by word declare we mean the creation of a variable. Creation of variable can be done any point of time in a code. Lets look at few examples below :-
// Declaring a variable follows below simple syntax.
// [data type][space][identifier][;]
// Few Examples :
int i ; // int -> data type and i -> identifier
float j ; // float -> data type and j -> identifier
long salary ; // long -> data type and salary -> identifier
How to initialize a Variable ?.
After declaration of a variable, we usually assign it a value. Thus by the term initialize we mean that providing a value to a variable at the time of declaration. By default a local variable gets a value which is left over in memory. Here local variable means that a variable is been declared in a method or a block of code. Generally initialization of a variable is done by assignment operator called as ' = '. Lets look at few examples :-
// Initialization of a variable follows below simple syntax.
// [data type][space][identifier][=][value][;]
// Few Examples :
int i=0 ; // int -> data type,i -> identifier and 0 -> value
float j=3.2f ; // float -> data type , j -> identifier and 3.2f -> value
long salary=1000L ; // long -> data type salary -> identifier and 1000L -> value
How to access a variable ?.
After having somebasic knowledge about the variables such declaring and initialization. We can move ahead to look for how to access a variables value. By accessing we mean how can we get out of variable value stored in it. Before accessing a value of a variable, it should be initialized. If you try to access value compiler will throw an error at compile time. Generally in order to access a variable we just use identifier name that's it. One thing should be in mind that variable accessed should not be coded in double quotes "". As double quotes are by deault String literals. Instead of printing the value , it will print the identifier name. Below example code shows how to access a variable.
/* This is Simple Java program call it as Welcome.java.
It prints some text on the console.*/
public class Welcome
// main method begins execution of Java application
public static void main( String[ ] args )
int hubscore = 50; // declaring and initializing a variable
System.out.println( "Welcome Java Programs to Hubpages! with hubscore : "+hubscore ); // hubscore in quotes is String and outside quotes its name of variable which will print value in it.
} // end method main
} // end class Welcome
// Output of the program
Welcome Java Programs to Hubpages! with hubscore : 50
What are Constants ?.
Constants are the variable whose value we do not want to get change after it has been assigned a value. Generally to achieve this feature we have to use keyword called as final. A final keyword will make the variable constant. Any attempt to change value of final variable after its initialization would throw a compile time error. As a best practice we generally use capital letters in giving a name to an identifier. Let see how syntax looks like:
// Syntax for declaring and initializing a constant
// [final][data type][identifier][=][value][;]
final int constants = 10 ;
How is Automatic Conversions done ?.
When creating a Java application or code we usually have to convert one data type to another. This is somewhat quite hectic task. Java has an excellent feature of automatic conversion. In Java basically there are two types of conversion : 1. Upcasting 2. Downcasting. Upcasting is done automatically and called as Automatic conversion. While downcasting is done explicitly and called as Explicit conversion, which we will see later. In Automatic conversion also upcasting, Java let us do the upcasting. Here below image shows that small data types can be assigned to large data types without any much headache. Java does it for us.
// Automatic Conversion in Java
// int data type automatically gets assigned to float data type
int age = 10;
float oldAge = age;
// Everything is handled by Java just size matters
// small data type ---upcasted-- > large data types
How Explicit Conversions work ?.
Explicit conversions basically downcasting is been handled by the programmer itself. If we want to convert large data type to small data type then we have to write some extra code for that. Generally we have to use a special operator for that. The special operator is named as Cast Operator. Cast operator looks like ( data type ) . Here data type in brackets is the data type to which we want to convert. Let see example code :-
// We want to convert double (larger data type) to float
// (smaller data type)
final double PI = 3.14;
float newPi = (float)PI;
// Cast operator (float) converts double to float and
// assign it to newPi

Hey, Misfiteers! Welcome to our new monthly feature in which you can get
to know the girls behind the argyle a little better by attending one of
our "Yearbook Meetings!" This month's meeting is of the Track Team, and
here's what we're discussing:
In the spirit of NaNoWriMo, what's your favorite strategy for writing fast?
I'm usually more of a pantser, but for NaNo, I'm allll about the outlines. BEHIND THE SCENES was a NaNo book, and I had an eleven-page single-spaced outline for it! It really helps keep me on track, and even though it feels like it allows for a little less creativity, I think it's good to balance that with discipline every now and again. Especially when you have a contract and you're on deadline! ~Dahlia
I'm a total pantser. This is my fourth NaNo, so I've created a pattern that seems to work. I have a general idea about where it's going. I typically write more of the 50K in the first couple weeks. Since I'm sitting on an idea before NaNo begins there's that anticipation factor which drives those first couple weeks of words. It's at the end of the month that I need more motivating! Also, I try not to read what I wrote, it slows me down ;o) ~Erica
Write Or Die. Write Or Die. And a little bit of Write Or Die. But in all seriousness: Write Or Die helps if I'm stuck in a rut and need to power through it, but usually I get the most done by having a full outline of the story--not necessarily perfectly in order or detailed down to the last scene change, but a full outline that gives me some idea of where the plot is headed when I'm starting to slow down. Plus, it reminds me of all the scenes I'm excited to write. ~Chessie
I'm with Chessie in that I also write after making a full outline of the story when I have a time constraint like NaNoWriMo. It doesn't necessarily have every detail about the draft but it has enough that I can use it to figure out what I'm supposed to be writing and make the most use of my writing time. It's also a good way to remember realy cool scenes that I might have come up with before (while doing non-writing things) but forgot after jotting them down on the outline. ~Lyla
Outlines, outlines, and even more detailed outlines! When I try to pants while I'm writing quickly, I just end up frustrated as scenes change and meander, and the perfectionist in me won't allow me to go forward when what I've written so far is a mess or doesn't line up with the story's forward motion. A general outline helps me know that the general direction I'm headed is the right one, and a more detailed outline keeps me on track within a scene and able to concentrate on getting the words on the page. ~Maggie
I'm another Misfits Outliner. I need to know where the story is going before I can start drafting it. Not down to the tiniest details, but enough that I can let my subconscious do the heavy lifting. I'm also a HUGE fan of Write Or Die, like Chessie. If I need massive wordcount for the day, I do a couple of sprints and I can usually get there. ~Jamie
I've always been a pantser, but this year I started with a pretty general three-page outline. That's made a big difference. Even though, as a pantser, I usually have an idea of where I'm going--the outline has really helped me to stay focused and keep from writing myself into a corner. (So far.) ~Megan
I'm not a fast writer at all because I'm very meticulous with my drafts, but with my current WiP I gave myself a deadline and not over-thinking things is really helping me stay on track. I have to keep reminding myself to GET THE WORDS DOWN, because I can always add, subtract, and revise later. Knowing that I'll have to find a job soon is also lighting a serious fire under my rear end! ~Gina
I'll put in another vote for outlines. And character profiles. And world histories. I absolutely cannot function without them. I need to know what happens, otherwise I'll end up floundering and rewriting. ~Marieke
I do a lot of writing on my phone, using the Evernote app. It syncs to my laptop and allows me to write whenever, wherever. I wrote my upcoming debut, THE ART OF FALLING, in about a month and I'd guess 1/3 of that writing happened on my phone. ~Jenny
I'm REALLY bad at writing on a deadline, at least any deadline I give myself. I'm a complete pantser, and I'm a very muse-driven writer, so if I need to write fast, I have to really find good inspiration. Music, quiet space, anything and everything I can do to encourage the muse. ~Cait

I like what Cait said. I'm just like that. Yet for this NaNo (since in the past I never got past 7k) I wrote a two page outline that seems to be helping a bit. Thank you!

Hokes Bluff Christian Divorce Lawyers
You may be specifically looking for a Christian divorce lawyer in Hokes Bluff, Alabama. For many, divorce is a very sensitive subject that needs to be handled by a lawyer with a similar outlook and perspective as them. It makes no sense to hire a lawyer who doesn't understand your aims and values in a divorce setting.
The problem is, most traditional search options don't let you look into an attorney's background or moral opinion on specific issues. For instance, thumbing through the phone book really won't tell you how a particular lawyer treats issues such as child support in a divorce claim.
Christian divorce lawyers in Hokes Bluff, Alabama can provide you with much-needed legal assistance. The laws on divorce in Alabama may be very different from the laws in a nearby area. Particularly speaking, subjects such as the distribution of property, and options for no-fault divorce can be unique to each jurisdiction. Therefore, it's very important that you work only with a Christian divorce attorney who has experience working with the laws in your region.
Do's and Don'ts of Divorce in Hokes Bluff, Alabama
Hokes Bluff divorce laws are often quite intricate. Qualified Christian divorce attorneys located in Hokes Bluff, Alabama can assist you with your divorce claim, without you having to sacrifice your personal beliefs and values. Your lawyer can explain to you some of the "Do's and Don'ts of divorce:
DO: Be respectful and considerate towards the other party. The legal proceeding will run more smoothly and efficiently when you communicate clearly with the other partner. In addition, failing to disclose necessary information will only complicate matters for the court.
DO: Consider your children's safety, upbringing, and well-being. The divorce process may sometimes involve additional legal concerns, particularly child neglect or domestic abuse. For protection purposes, make sure you inform the judge and your lawyer if any of these issues are present in your situation. You should also understand that all decisions involving your child, such as child custody and support, will be judged according to the "best interests of the child", rather than the parent's preferences.
DON'T: Break any laws or disobey any court orders. These types of actions will only add to your existing issues. They can also reduce the types of options that may be available to you during any divorce hearings.
DON'T: Try to get re-married if the divorce proceedings are still underway. The average divorce process is already complicated enough. Whatever your reasons are for the divorce, it's always wiser to allow the divorce to be completed before beginning any other legal actions. For instance, remarriage during an existing divorce will complicate issues such as the distribution of property.

Surrounded on three sides by the arid Namib Desert and on the west side by the cold waters of the South Atlantic, Swakopmund is surely one of the most unusual and fascinating colonial towns in the whole of Africa. In a period of a little more than 25 years the German Imperial Government built a succession of extravagant buildings, which today represent one of the best-preserved collections of German colonial architecture still standing. When approached from the desert, especially during the morning fog, the turrets, towers and pastel-coloured buildings on the skyline appear as a hazy mirage, and the quirky town comes as quite as surprise on the barren coastline.
Today, because of its olde-worlde charm and relaxed atmosphere, Swakopmund is Namibia's premier holiday resort. Each year thousands descend from the heat and dust of the interior to enjoy the temperate climate of the coast and to indulge in a few weeks' fishing and boating and, increasingly these days, adventure sports. There are lots of things to do, a wide choice of hotels, guesthouses and pensions, and several good restaurants and coffee shops selling traditional German pastries. You will not have a problem finding an apple strudel or a flagon of beer in this town.

Service & Replacement
Diesel Turbos for Light Vehicles
Honeywell Garrett diesel turbos include a wide range of technologies such as wastegate, VNT™, TwoStage and DualBoost VNT.
Simple in their design and architecture, wastegate turbos are still being widely used today on a variety of engine platforms globally for their proven reliability and cost advantage. With over 50 million units in the field, Honeywell Garrett VNT™ is a key variable geometry turbo technology for auto manufacturers as they seek to enhance light vehicle driveability, improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. The latest generation VNT delivers benchmark transient response, low-speed efficiency, reliability, weight savings and packaging flexibility. Honeywell is also a leader in TwoStage turbo technology, offering both Serial and Parallel TwoStage technologies. For light and medium duty pick-up trucks with an engine displacement around 6.0L and above, there is VNT DualBoost Turbo turbocharger that features a host of innovations – including the world's first double-sided compressor wheel – to help light truck manufacturers achieve near two-stage engine boosting performance in a single package.
Gasoline Turbos for Light Vehicles
Honeywell Garrett gasoline turbos help boost a wide range of engine sizes – from the mono-scroll 1.4L Opel Astra, to the twin-scroll 1.6L BMW, the V6 Ford EcoBoost and the V8 twin-turbo BMW X-Series.
As turbocharging gains traction as an essential gasoline powertrain technology, Honeywell Garrett high temperature wastegate solutions are delivering class-leading fuel efficiency and performance benefits through the application of advanced aerodynamics, materials and bearing systems. The latest generation gasoline wastegate turbos from Honeywell Garrett are available in a broad range mono-scroll and twin-scroll configurations to boost engines from 0.9L displacement to premium V8 engines delivering 400kW peak power.
Turbos for Commercial Vehicles
On- and off-highway, sometimes it pays to compound the benefits of turbocharging by having two turbos in a series arrangement – for improved transient performance, better low-speed torque, longer turbo life and optimized fuel efficiency. Honeywell Garrett TwoStage turbo systems are increasingly being adopted across a wide range of applications – from small downsized 4.4L construction vehicles to heavy-duty trucks and massive 64L mining equipment. Tougher emissions requirements are making this technology also particularly attractive for smaller displacement medium-duty engines.
The latest generation Honeywell Garrett VNT DutyDrive turbocharger is valued in Commercial Vehicles for its ability to increase fuel efficiency as well as engine power density while meeting emissions through Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) control. VNT DutyDrive turbos, available in different sizes, are especially suited to diesel engines with displacements from 2.5L to 15L – from small delivery vans to large highway trucks and off-highway equipment.
Honeywell Garrett large wastegate and free floating turbos are intended for large off-highway commercial diesel engines, covering a wide range of applications such as mining equipment, generator sets, locomotives and marine applications. While large wastegate turbos cover engines with sizes above 30L and below 64L, the free floating turbos are mainly focused on engines that range from 64L to 105L.

You might know Mike White as chair of the PSAR Technology Committee, which he founded in 2011. The widely-known technology guru also serves on the Sandicor Technical User Group and the C.A.R. ZipForm Committee.
But did you know that Mike, 53, has earned a black belt in Tang Soo Do, a Korean martial art? He has studied martial arts for six years.
He was born in Hawaii, his father was in the Navy. The family relocated to San Diego when he was 13 years old (it was his family's 13th move since he was born). They lived in San Diego's Del Cerro area.
He got his first computer at age 18, a Commodore 16 with only 16 kilobytes of RAM. "It had enough memory for playing a few games, that's about it," said Mike. He graduated from Patrick Henry High School (class of 1979).
After high school, Mike attended the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) and played trumpet in the marching band. "That's how I was able to attend the football and basketball games for free," he said. "Those tickets can get expensive."
At UCLA, Mike was among the final group of students required to learn the Fortran computer language using punch cards. But, he was also one among the first students at UCLA at the time to type homework assignments and term papers on a computer.
Three days after finals were over his freshman year at UCLA, Mike passed the real estate sales exam on his first attempt. He was a newly licensed, 18-year-old sales agent who worked over the summer months at a Century 21 office owned by Jerry Campbell, the father of Jeff Campbell, PSAR 2013 president.
Mike later left UCLA and transferred to San Diego State University where he won the top prize in a contest sponsored by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. For the contest, he developed a quick-release latch for a plastic injection molding machine that was used to produce plastic parts for Hewlett-Packard. "All I got was a certificate," said Mike.
He quit college to focus on his computer consulting business. "It was the mid-1980s and I was earning $30 an hour just to connect cables and fix computers," said Mike.
His IT consulting business kept him employed for 25 years. Then, in 2005, Mike returned to real estate sales on a full-time basis and came full circle with the Campbell family's real estate heritage. Mike joined Jeff Campbell & Associates' Pacific Growth Sales Brokerage, where he is still today.
"I always tell other agents that technology is merely a tool in our business, but it's not the end-all, it's only one of the arrows in someone's quiver," said Mike. "I don't spend too much time on Facebook and social media, only late at night but not much in the prime time of the day."
Mike has been married for 15 years to wife Cathy , who goes by Cat. They have a daughter Crystalinda, 13, who attends Creative, Performing and Media Arts Middle School located in Clairemont.
"I love PSAR because our association adds so much fun to our jobs," said Mike, who appeared recently in the Unfashion and Variety Show. He also helped operate the lights at the event. The fun-filled evening of fashion, song-and-dance routines, and hilarious comedy skits performed by PSAR members raised $10,000 for the non-profit Military Warriors Support Foundation.

Our New Life in Christ
With great solemnity, the Church celebrates baptism and Easter, and along with the Easter Candle, the baptismal font and its water are the central symbols of the Easter season. On Easter Sunday and each Sunday of the Easter season (the 50 days between Easter and Pentecost), the priest will bless water with these words, "Bless this water which will be sprinkled on us as a memorial of our baptism. May he help us by his grace to remain faithful to the Spirit we have received." The priest will then move through the church, sprinkling the congregation.
Each week we remember again that "…we have been cleansed with water by the power of the living Word, and made sharers in God's own life and his adopted children" (The Rite of Baptism for Children). Baptism is both a rising with Christ and a new birth. Baptism changes us forever.
Saint Augustine introduced the word "character" into Christian theology when speaking about the uniqueness of baptism, which along with confirmation marks us in a distinctive way. St. John in his vision of heaven sees an angel with "the seal of the living God" (Revelation 7:2), which was to be used in marking the servants of God on their foreheads (Revelation 7:3). It is Christ who spiritually marks out his own. We have been claimed for Christ and this is our permanent vocation. Baptism not only marks us as members of God's household and children of a new creation; it is also the basis for our own obligations to each other as members of the Church, and the starting point for our efforts to restore Christ's Church in that unity rooted in one baptism, one faith, and one Lord.
The Easter season invites us to consider how we can live out our baptismal vocation with renewed energy and vigor. Can the additional practices we added to our prayer life during Lent become a regular part of our daily prayer? How can we as individuals better fulfill our obligations as members of the Church? Is this the right time to get involved in an activity or ministry at the parish? Is there someone with whom we have wanted to share our faith or invite to Mass, and is now the time to do that when our Scriptures are filled with the excitement of the disciples of the Lord sharing the good news of Jesus' resurrection, when our churches are so beautifully decorated and our music so glorious?
Consider how you can bring the "new life" we celebrate at Mass to your world. Perhaps there's a part of your life that could be transformed by a renewed sense of hope and confidence that change is possible.

Review: Peach
Posted: Oct 04, 2011 at 2:59 PM (Last Updated: Oct 05, 2011 at 1:16 PM)Designed to be a play on the classic flavor of peach iced tea, Chan Tea's Green Tea & Aloe Vera Peach flavor is a product that will, with the exception of the aloe vera pulp, taste quite familiar to most consumers. The peach flavor is quite strong and sweet tasting, although this product has almost the same amount of sugar as their other flavors (19g per serving). The green tea and aloe vera provide the secondary wave of flavor, which tastes slightly earthy and grassy. All in all, it's a very pleasing, but slightly sweet, flavor (just like peach iced tea typically is). In terms of the bottle, the 11.5 oz. PET feels smallish in your hand. They've used a sleeve wrap label, which is fine, although the design that they've printed on it could definitely be refined (see the other flavor reviews for further thoughts). The only thing we'd say specific to this flavor is that using a peach without displaying a peach pit would be more appealing to the senses. Ultimately, this is a great flavor for the ChanTea lineup, with solid flavor and packaging that's on par with their other flavors.

Meet the 2017 Mazda3
For 2017, Mazda updated and refreshed the Mazda3 hatchback and sedan models, giving them just a little facelift rather than full reconstructive surgery. Available in hatchback or sedan, 6-speed manual or automatic, the Mazda3 provides plentiful options so you can find a trim level to meet your needs.
2017 Mazda3 Updates
Mazda made minor changes to the front and rear of the Mazda3, including a restyled grille. The cockpit sees a new steering wheel (a heated steering wheel option is available for those days in winter when we actually get chilly here in Tempe!) and an updated dashboard design. Storage is expanded with bigger pockets on the doors and more center console space, due to a new electronic parking brake.
Some Things Never Change
The Mazda3 has been a favorite compact car of the Edmunds car experts for several years. They cite its intuitive infotainment system, upscale interior, and the ever-important fun factor. We couldn't agree more- the Mazda3 is just fun to drive. It handles like a dream with precise steering and quick acceleration. On top of that, it even delivers impressive fuel economy.

Precision timing for all time frames through a multi-dimensional approach to technical
analysis: Cycles - Breadth - P&F and Fibonacci price projections
and occasional Elliott Wave analysis
"By the Law of Periodical Repetition, everything which has happened once must happen again, and again, and again -- and not capriciously, but at regular periods, and each thing in its own period, not another's, and each obeying its own law... The same Nature which delights in periodical repetition in the sky is the Nature which orders the affairs of the earth. Let us not underrate the value of that hint." ~ Mark Twain
Current Position of the Market
SPX: Very Long-term trend - The very-long-term cycles are in their down phases, and if they make their lows when expected (after this bull market is over), there will be another steep decline into late 2014. However, the severe correction of 2007-2009 may have curtailed the full downward pressure potential of the 40-yr and 120-yr cycles.
Intermediate trend - SPX has started an intermediate correction from 1597 and is currently describing a corrective A-B-C pattern.
Analysis of the short-term trend is done on a daily basis with the help of hourly charts. It is an important adjunct to the analysis of daily and weekly charts which discusses the course of longer market trends.
Market Overview
The 1539 level has now been tested twice and held both times. If it is tested a third time it is unlikely that it will hold. After the first test, SPX went on to make a new high at 1597. The preferred scenario is that this represents an intermediate high which was followed by corrective wave A. Then came corrective wave B which went just about as far as the base count (from ca. 1445) would take it. After reaching that level on Thursday, the index appears to have now started wave C which should end the correction when it is complete. We should also note that if last week's high prevails, we will have started a pattern of lower low and lower high, typical of a correction. Roughly speaking, we can probably expect a 4% to 5% correction from the 1597 high.
Assuming that the secondary top was made at 1592.64 (a little shy of its ultimate count of 1596-1600), present P&F and Fibonacci projections for the low fall into the range of that expected correction. Of course, this is preliminary and it will refined when SPX has given a decisive sell signal by closing below 1573. Friday's action was typical of an index which has met its upside projection, bringing about the first wave of selling by the more sophisticated traders. A follow-through on Monday or Tuesday would be encouraging for the bears since it would confirm several technical and structural patterns that are now only possibilities.
The current cyclical configuration is also bearish. I have discussed the yearly cycle pattern which tends to make a high in April followed by a low in June or July. Historically, that pattern is clearly discernible on a weekly chart and, as we will see, there are signs that it has started to recur.
Chart Analysis
Even though I showed the weekly SPX chart (courtesy of QCharts) last week, I believe it is worth showing again as a reminder of what the market is facing over the short term. If you are a trader, much happens during the week that can distract you from the bigger picture and keeping an eye on the weekly chart can restore your overall perspective.
Nothing has changed over the past week to deter us from the idea that the SPX is creating the top which normally takes place in April. The rally from the 1539 support level, as strong as it was, did not have any positive effect on the indicators. The MACD showed some minor hesitation, but the SRSI continued on its downward trajectory. This is not expected to take place but, even if SPX were to reach its maximum count of 1600, the indicators would look even worse than they do now since they would exhibit strong negative divergence, and this would tell us that the advance would be short-lived.
As long as we are looking at this chart, let's use it to remind ourselves that what we expect is only an intermediate correction and not the top of the bull market which appears to have more to go both in time and price.
The next charts are also courtesy of QCharts. We started looking at these before we made the 1597 high, hoping that the leading tendency of the Russell 2000 would again manifest itself as we approached a reversal. It did not disappoint us as it made its high almost a month before SPX. And what is it telling us now? That it was still weaker than SPX at last week's top, making us comfortable in our forecast that the correction is not over. It's irrelevant that it has broken out of a short-term down-channel as long as it remains below its second peak, just as SPX remains below its first peak.
IMW is one level lower than SPX. It has already dropped to that which compares to 1480 in the latter, and if SPX breaks below 1539, IWM will most likely break its 88.50 level as well. Both indices are probably aiming for the vicinity of their 200 DMA and that could give us a clue about how much retracement we can expect from both. On the charts, I have suggested that both indices are making some form of H&S reversal pattern. If so, The one on IWM is already confirmed, while the one for SPX would be if the index dropped below its neckline/support level. Granted, these patterns look a little unorthodox!
The momentum indicators show us that the correction is not complete. The MACD is where the relative weakness of IWM really stands out. But the A/D indicators also show us how much strength remains in this market. Both probed deep into positive territory in support of the price rally.
In the next chart, (the 15m chart of the SPX) I have incorporated several technologies which corroborate one another and tell us that the current rally is probably over.
The bottom pattern was in the form of an inverse H&S which, on the P&F chart had formed a base which gave us 3 potential counts: 1589, 1596 and 1600 (a weak rally could also have opted to stop at the 1574 phase count). It looks as if SPX decided to peak just a little shy of 1596, a level substantiated by a Fibonacci projection.
The index appears to be making a H&S reversal pattern. This will be confirmed if it drops below the dashed neckline on Monday. Such a move would also put us outside the channel and below the second support line. 1574 is a count across the first small distribution top, and this is probably where the index is heading initially, in the vicinity of the 200-hr MA. If this is accomplished, then a small rally to the H&S neckline would be perfect because it would also correspond with a back-test of the channel line.
This analysis presupposes that the correction is in the form of a large ABC pattern for intermediate wave IV that could turn out to be an EW irregular, and that would work out well because wave II was a totally different formation.
I have already given subscribers the potential target for the correction. It will be refined when we have confirmation that the top is in place.
There are several cycles that lie ahead which should affect the market negatively. First, we have the yearly cycle discussed earlier which is expected to bottom in June. That should be the dominant cycle, ruling over all the others.
On Monday or Tuesday a minor cycle should bottom. Around May 1, a Kress intermediate cycle is due as well as a 29-day cycle.
The next 7-wk cycle low is due in the third week of May, and around June 2, the 29-wk cycle should bottom, perhaps coinciding with the bottoming of the yearly cycle to end the correction.
The McClellan Oscillator and Summation Index are shown below (courtesy of StockCharts.com).
The Oscillator had a marginal up-move which put it back in the positive zone. This caused the NYSI to turn up just as it was finding support on its 200-DMA. If the correction continues in earnest, the Summation index should soon turn back down and break below the MA. That would undoubtedly send it lower and confirm the market decline.
Sentiment Indicators
The SentimenTrader (Courtesy of same) could not be more neutral with both the short term and long term indicators almost exactly in the middle of their respective range. I would feel better about forecasting a decline if the long term one was in the red zone, but since everything else seems to point to a market retracement, I have to go with the majority; but I will keep in mind the neutral readings of this indicator and what it might mean for nature of the correction.
In a bull market such as the one we are in, there is a consistent pattern in the VIX which precedes corrections: the index starts to make a series of higher highs and higher lows which result in a rounding bottom. We saw this in March-April 2012 and again in October-November-December of the same year. Both of these occurred just before sizeable corrections in the market. It looks as if the same pattern started in March of this year and has continued throughout April.
This pattern is accompanied by positive divergence in the VIX as it approaches the beginning of the correction (also manifest in the present VIX action). Of course, this warning must follow through with continued higher highs and lows as the market corrects. Is VIX again forecasting a significant correction?
XLF (Financial SPDR)
In the past few weeks we have been looking for XLF to show some relative weakness to SPX, as this would alert us to a market correction. This started to happen several times, but each time the financial index came roaring back in sync with SPX. The past rally has even taken XLF to a new high while SPX made a lesser high. That is relative strength which could be forecasting higher prices in SPX. But if we look at the indicator, severe negative divergence is occurring which nullifies whatever appearance of strength there is in XLF since the indicator is forecasting an imminent correction. The indicator is reflecting the deceleration process taking place in the price which is less and less able to reach the top of the trend channel.
Should XLF fall below is previous short-term low, it will confirm a correction in SPX.
In spite of an overbought indicator, TLT has refused to correct. It has moved through its 200-DMA and is using it for support to consolidate its recent advance. If we look back, we can see that the same kind of pattern occurred during April-June of last year, after which it made a new high. Is this a manifestation of the yearly cycle we have been discussing, and is it about to replay the same pattern? Probably, since the P&F chart gives it a projection to 127 or a little higher. That would put it outside of its main corrective channel before it engages in another corrective move.
GLD (ETF for gold)
GLD has had a 12-point rally from its low of 131. Does that mean that the correction is over? I don't think so! The weekly indicators are not suggesting this at all. In fact, in order to generate positive divergence in the weekly MACD, GLD would have to make a new, perhaps by the first of June, when its next 25-wk low is due. 127 looks like a pretty good target after this wave 4 correction is over.
UUP (dollar ETF)
UUP may be close to completing its consolidation and resuming its uptrend. At least, this is what the indicator is suggesting, and this also goes along with the P&F chart count which gives it a target of 23.30. A resumption of the dollar's uptrend would be another good reason for GLD (and oil) to continue correcting.
USO (United States Oil Fund)
The forces which caused a sharp rally in gold also had an effect on oil. USO used a previous short-term low to find support and rallied quickly from that level. Like gold, the decline is probably not over and it should resume shortly. The P&F target of 29 is still reachable, but it is not likely that the triangle projection of about 27.60 will be realized.
SPX has probably completed wave B of the corrective pattern which started from 1597 and is now starting wave C. If last week's high prevails, we would now have the beginning of a lower low lower high declining pattern on an intermediate scale.
Of course, we will need confirmation and this could come next week if the cyclical rhythm is unimpeded. The decline could then continue into early June and mark the completion of wave C.

Incandescent with rage
Related Stories
There is less than six months to go until the federal government bans the incandescent light bulb, yet still many Canadians have no clue.
Twice on television over the last week I've spoken about the looming ban and been inundated with messages expressing surprise.
In discussion with family and friends, I've experienced the same thing — shock that a full ban will go into effect on Jan. 1.
Apparently many people thought this dim bulb of an idea had been put out to pasture, or that it would take away some types of bulbs but not all.
Starting on Jan. 1, 2014, the federal government will ban the sale of the kind of lighting Canadians have been using for more than 100 years.
The reason? Stopping global warming.
Sure, we haven't had any global warming in 15 years according to Britain's Met Office, the climate change pushing bureaucrats in charge of climate policy, but no matter.
The idea was first pushed by the Harper government and then-environment minister John Baird back in 2007. Facing immense pressure to get on board with the Kyoto Protocol and reduce Canada's greenhouse gas emissions, Baird and company looked for an easy fix that would earn them some green street cred.
They didn't get it.
Far from seeing the green crowd rush to them, the move was criticized as window dressing.
The Conservatives eventually pulled Canada out of Kyoto, but the light bulb ban remains.
That means, come the New Year, the old-fashioned 75-watt and 100-watt will all give way to the curly compact fluorescent light bulbs — or as I call them, the toxic twisties.
CFL bulbs contain mercury which is a toxic and harmful substance.
Ever looked at the instructions for cleaning up after a compact fluorescent breaks in your house?
Health Canada warns that you should open windows and doors to outside to let the room ventilate for at least 15 minutes prior to starting cleanup.
They also warn not to use a vacuum lest you spread the mercury vapours through the house as the vacuum blows air.
And as for a broom, don't use it to clean up a compact fluorescent if you ever want to use the broom again.
Funny, that all seems more complex than sweeping up an old-fashioned light bulb.
Then there is the cost.
I've been stocking up on real light bulbs for the last little while as my wife hates the compact fluorescents, saying they give off an awful light. As I've been paying as little as $1.49 for four light bulbs, I couldn't help but notice that CFLs retail for as much as $7 for one or $9.96 for three of the cheap ones.
As for the claim they last up to six years, never happens.
Before finding out about the problems with compact fluorescents, our home was filled with them. They never lasted as long as they claimed.
I have friends who swear by the new curly bulbs and won't use anything else.
My family doesn't like them and shouldn't be forced into using them.
I'm still hoping the Harper government reconsiders the ban and lets Canadians decide how to light their homes.
If the government has no business in the bedrooms of the nation, then they have no business dictating what kind of mood lighting I can use.
Should the incandescent light bulb be banned?

Find Your Happiness with DEFINE!
Have you ever wondered what successful entrepreneurs have that you don't? Are some entrepreneurs just lucky or do they have a magic touch?
Our thriving DEFINE franchisees don't thrive on just luck or a magic touch, but they do have a few things in common that drive their success – passion, dedication, and a desire to help others be their absolute best!
If you have these traits, but the risk is stopping you, leave the risk-taking to us. Let our franchise model and support be the confidence you need to follow your passion and achieve everything you've ever dreamed of. You just might be the franchisee that we're seeking!
When making the decision to franchise with DEFINE, you may first consider factors that are tangible, such as a comfortable lifestyle, flexible schedule, and long-term wealth. However, don't forget the intangible factors! Becoming a DEFINE franchisee can help you develop a sense of purpose in your community, personal fulfillment, and the feeling that you are in control of your future while following your passion for health and wellness.
- Are you socially active in the community where you are looking to open a DEFINE?
- Do you have a passion for helping people become their absolute best?
- Are you ready to accomplish your personal and professional goals with an innovative business model destined to be the future of the wellness & fitness industry?
- Do you have an entrepreneurial spirit and are passionate about health, wellness, and balance?
If you keep answering Yes, we invite you to continue exploring franchising with DEFINE!
However, before you research franchising with DEFINE or any other franchise opportunity, you should set professional and personal goals. Professional goals take into account cash flow, net worth, equity build-up, and spendable income. Personal goals should consider lifestyle issues that are important to you, like maintaining a social life, helping others, attending personal events, and so on. Most happy franchisees consider their personal goals to be more important than their professional goals.
Why do they say their personal goals are more important? Because many people who invest in a franchise have had financial success in the past. Aside from earning a standard paycheck, they couldn't find a compelling reason to continue on their current career path. Money alone isn't enough to keep them going, and will not hold your interest in the long-term.
It is vital to understand what your passion and priorities are before you approach any business venture. By knowing what provides you with happiness and satisfaction, you will find the path to success less cluttered.
With DEFINE, you will be taught operational and marketing processes for success. Our business and support systems are designed to help you structure your business to achieve, measure, and monitor your results.
We know of no franchisor, including us that can perfectly measure how satisfied you are with your personal goals and/or your quality of life. Franchisors measure your success by their definition, not yours. Most franchisors have no clue as to whether or not "successful" franchisees are living the life they originally desired after you've invested in a franchise. However, it's solely your responsibility to create a clear definition of the goals that define what winning looks like for you.
Use your definition of winning as your criteria to compare various franchise opportunities. The franchise where you have the highest probability of attaining both your professional and personal goals is the franchise you should make an investment in, and we hope that DEFINE is that perfect fit for you!
At DEFINE, we are confident that we have a proven business model for success if you have the traits mentioned above- passion, dedication, and a desire to help others become their absolute best!
Allow the exciting world of franchising with DEFINE be your journey to a new life.

As I said, keeping to form, I nearly missed the bus to Lijiang. Leaving the hostel only a few minutes later than intended, one taxi refused my fare, three buses passed by without stopping, and a second taxi. Finally, one taxi stopped for me, and was sufficiently willing to understand me. Fortunately, I knew where the bus station I needed was and was able to direct him with gestures when he asked (similarly with gestures, thankfully!), as I couldn't pronounce the Chinese required to tell him the name.
Arriving at the bus station, with only minutes before my one-per-day, 24 hour long bus journey, I had not expected to be confronted by security to equal that of any airport. People were standing over emptied suitcases, all belongings scattered in piles on the floor, hastily repacking. It was a great relief when the security guards simply glared at me a bit for being late, and allowed me through.
The journey was uneventful, save for serving as my introduction to Chinese public toilets. Service stations do not really exist in China. There are simply laybys with two or three houses - each serving dual duty as either a corner shop or a noodle bar - and a public toilet. I can't speak for the gents, but the ladies' is simply a single trough in a concrete floor. If you're lucky, there will be four or five small walls built across the trough that you can squat behind to preserve a modicum of modesty, but this is not always the case. There is no water – whether running or, as would be the case in southeast asia, in a bucket – with which to flush the trough. Instead, the waste simply piles up throughout the day, and can become truly vile with travel sickness, sanitary products and everything else you can imagine gathering in small piles. Flies are everywhere. A clue to the cleaning method is given on the way in, as this usually involves passing by a pig pen of noisy, hairy, filthy hogs, grunting and snorting – possibly in anticipation of, or even thanks for, their dinner.
Otherwise, I find the sleeper buses of Asia quite comfortable. I slept well, except for the more dicey mountain roads when a short sharp lightning storm made for some fun swaying along narrow twisting roads. We pulled in to a truck stop at around 3am, and judging by the panicked alacrity with which the driver rose from his bed and resumed his seat at 7am (the time we were meant to arrive in Lijiang), this was the only cause for delay to the journey.
When I next woke at about 8.30, I was greeted by my first view of the Himalayas.
I spent 4 nights in Lijiang while I decided where to go next, and tried to find someone else who would be trekking Tiger Leaping Gorge. For a few days, everyone I met was coming south having completed it already, so while they were able to reassure me that the gear I had with me would be sufficient, it wasn't much help for having company on the trail. Even with the reassurance, I didn't fancy heading out on my own, just in case.
Finally, I decided to do it anyway, and that evening in a bar with people from my hostel met Scott – a Scotsman who'd been working in Shanghai for a few years, and was now travelling China before returning to near-Aberdeen (I forget exactly where – sorry Scott). He wasn't sure if he'd be going, but we swapped numbers, and agreed to walk it together if he did go. The next day he called to confirm he'd be going, and we arranged to meet at the hostel at the start of the trail.
Four days in Lijiang was otherwise spent wandering around the historical areas of the city, taking photos of oddly-dressed dogs, looking at things I couldn't afford, and drinking coffee because the tea was far too expensive. As the pu'er producing region, Yunnan tea houses all charge about ten dollars for a cup of tea, and nearly $20 for a pot. Even if it isn't the really good tea. That's extra.

Spring Break Magic
Well we are just back from a whirlwind holiday the past three weeks. ( A little bit of work and a lot of play!) Our trip which included a road trip to Toronto, Event Conference, Disney Magic Kingdom, Disney Animal Kingdom, Disney Hollywood Studios, Seaworld, the Beach, visiting with family, friends and tons and tons of shopping was exhausting but so worth it!
Thanks to the EBE staff that traveled to Toronto with us and Dannie and the kids for all of the great memories.
Special thanks to all of the family and friends we met and stayed with along the way. Also thanks to Kim and Sacha who held down the fort for me while I was away.
Looking forward to catching up with emails, phone messages, clients, upcoming events and so many exciting things over the next year. Hopefully Dan and I can squeeze in a vacation next year again!

St. Augustine National Cemetery is a United States National Cemetery located on Marine Street in the historic district of the Ancient City of St. Augustine, Florida. It is located on the grounds of the active military installation known as St. Francis Barracks, the state headquarters of the Florida National Guard. The cemetery encompasses 1.4 acres with the first interment in 1823. Veterans of the two Seminole Indian Wars were first to be burial in the cemetery. The Dade Monument is a grouping of three coquina pyramids, which were erected in 1842 to mark the end of the Second Seminole Wars; beneath these three pyramids are the remains of 1,468 soldiers who died during the war. After the American Civil War, the cemetery was expanded and improved, and in 1881 it became a National Cemetery. There are also graves of five British Commonwealth servicemen of World War II. With 2,788 interments, it is currently closed to new interments. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.

Yes, the only way to get away from the salt is to do your own.
I don't like added sugar in so many things either, & especially in tomato based sauces.....UGH!
I rarely eat chips and pretzels, etc., because of the extra salt. It's difficult finding salt-free snacks. And when you do, they're more expensive than salted ones. Does that make sense?
So, I've been making my own chips--both regular potato and sweet potato. It takes less than 15' to slice and bake them. Easy peasy.
As for pizza, I make my own.
I have never been a big salt person but do use it minimally in some things. I just want to make sure I'm not getting hidden salts that I don't know about, or find unnecessary.
I absolutely hate french fries with salt, & most restaurants pre-salt them, which takes my choice away as far as I'm concerned.
I don't like my vegetables, or meats, salted, but I do salt gravies, soups, & stews. I just watch how much.
I already make my bread with much less salt than any recipe calls for, & it tastes just fine.
The salt shaker hasn't been on the dinner table for years.
A very good idea, Patricia, nobody can watch your health like you. We have been in the habit of adding no salt for years and we don't miss it at all. One setback - the day you order a pizza you get a load of salt, and you feel it!
Even though the nephrologist told me I didn't need a kidney doctor, I'm still going to watch my salt intake, & would rather make what I can without it, or limit it a lot. That way, I can add it to my taste in other things that may need it.
No pasta machine, so I bought a bag of "Amish" noodles (home made) and made a tuna casserole last night. For a single guy, a bag of noodles can last a long time!
This is what is listed on amazon.....
It just says use a cloth, or a piece of dough & dispose of it.

The real story – fertility in women fall steadily as they age, especially after thirty-five even though they might be healthy and fit. Women today are more aware of fitness and nutrition, thus taking better care of themselves than the previous generations yet being healthy has little to do with age-related infertility which is a natural occurrence. The media and live cases around you lead you to believe in the idea that pregnancy can be delayed and can be aided with various modern infertility treatments. Although, ageing not only affects your natural ability to reproduce but also affects the chances or rate of success of infertility treatments. Age related infertility affects women early and drastically when compared to men. In women, fertility is drastically affected after the age of thirty-five.
Ageing can hamper your chances of conception
Let's see what ageing does to the body which can hamper chances of conception
Ageing affects fertility especially around mid-thirties where there is an increased risk of genetic abnormalities, miscarriages and stillbirths due to factors mentioned above. If you have postponed pregnancy at a later stage of your life you need to weigh down the risks and take appropriate medical aid to make your pregnancy healthy and safe.

Hi, new here, just jumping in...
|By miche_chan On 03/31/04
The thing that throws me for a loop in this request is "useful". I cannot think of many crafts I made as a wee lass that were actually practical...
|By jtsang On 03/31/04
watch pbs during the marathons, there is this couple that has designed over 300 kid crafts and experiments etc that are fun to do. One I can think of off the top of my head is to put liquid soap and tempera paint powder in water, then put a straw in and blow bubbles, touch a piece of paper to the bubbles to make a fun effect.
|By jessyjessy On 04/01/04
There's a book designed for teachers called ScienceArts that is all quick art projects that teach science things, too.
|By Lu On 04/01/04
The couple' s books are called Kid Concoctions. There is a book 1 and 2 and a holiday one. I can't think of the authors, but if you search on Amazon, you can find them. I have the first book and I've used it with classes I've had of different ages and the projects are always fun. The great thing is that you can use the concoctions (many are homemade clay or paint) to make other creative stuff, rather than winding up with a predesigned bunny or popsicle stick cabin that looks just like a picture.

make your own soaps with little toys and stuff inside?
|By asianlynn On 04/02/04
You couls do some really cool multicultural crafts. You could do dream catchers they are really easy but they also have room for a lot of different ages and personalization. They could make it look earthy with leather cord and fethers or they could make it look nice and etherial with sheer ribbons and sparkly thread on the inside. After they are done they have something they can hang in their room. Also They could make a Japanese windsock. This can be done with either fabric or paper just cut two identical fish shapes out of fabric or paper and decorate the right side and then you can either help them sew them together or they can glue them together on each side of the fish but you leave the top and bottom open and then you attach strings to the top and either hang it inside or outside depending on what you made it out of.

Intervals. I'll say it again:
Intervals are the devil. Especially when you haven't done them in weeks.
I also hadn't had any carbs all day and was really dragging. I was disappointed in my performance but my trainer was glad to see I was giving it my all (even if I didn't think I was living up to what I thought I could do).
He said, "You know what I like about you? You don't quit. Even if something is really hard, you still finish it the best you can." I said, "I so often feel like I could've done better." He said, "Maybe but you could be a lot worse."
A good way to think about it, I guess.
