I just love healthy appetizers! I often like to make a meal of them. When I'm planning to entertain, I have the hardest time thinking of low-calorie, delicious, healthy hors d' oeuvres to serve to my guests.
It's so easy to grab the chips and salsa or the block of cheese. Now I keep this list taped inside my kitchen cupboard so that I can quickly and easily make choices.
My friend and neighbor, Pat, shared this low-calorie recipe with me a few years ago. It was so easy and delicious that I knew right away it was a "keeper." I made a few changes in the original recipe to make it more to my taste.
Oven-375 degrees
Spray a baking dish or cookie sheet with Pam
Arrange the mushroom caps on the pan, gill side up
Spread 1-2 T. of spaghetti sauce in each cavity
Top with a small amount of goat, feta, or mozzarella cheese
Bake for 20 minutes
Garnish with chopped fresh basil (optional)
Preheat oven on broil
Drain 1 pint of select oysters
Using reduced-fat or turkey bacon, cut each strip into thirds
Wrap each oyster in a piece of bacon and secure with a wooden toothpick
Place oysters on broiling pan, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder
Spread a small amount of mustard on each oyster
Broil about four inches from the heat for 2-3 minutes, or until golden
My friend, Marian, gave me this popular appetizer recipe. It is always a big hit at her house. You don't have to be picky about what type of beans or tomatoes you use, as it is always delicious!
1 can black-eyed peas (or black beans)
1 can white corn
1 can chick peas (garbanzo beans)
2/3 cup green onion slices
1/2 lb. Roma tomatoes, chopped
1 ripe avocado, diced (optional)
Mix together with 2 T. red wine vinegar, 2 t. hot sauce, 2 t. olive or canola oil, salt and pepper. Serve with low-fat tortilla chips.
In a food processor, add:
2 cans of drained garbanzo beans (chick peas)
3 cloves of garlic
5-6 roasted red peppers (purchased in a jar)
The juice of 1 lemon or fresh rosemary (opt.)
Blend and drizzle olive oil in until smooth (about 3-4 T.)
Serve with veggies, low-fat crackers or low-fat pita chips
This appetizer is a big hit with my husband. He has no idea that peas are included in the ingredients.
(Makes about 1 1/2 cups. Serving size=2T. For 55 calories, 3 g. fat, 1 g. fiber)
1 avocado
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1 T. lime juice
1 medium tomato, diced
1/4 cup onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1/2 t. ground cumin
1-2 T. fresh cilantro leaves, chopped (optional)
Scoop the avocado flesh into a bowl. Add the peas, lime juice, tomato, onion, garlic, cilantro, jalapeno, and cumin. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Blend or process until smooth or desired consistency.

November 9, 2009 (CHICAGO) --A developer wants to turn a landmark building on Chicago's Gold Coast into a facility to store the ashes of the dearly departed.The Three Arts Club, 1300 N. Dearborn St., was built in 1914 and served as a residence for young women studying music, painting and drama.
The building sold in 2003 for $13 million. Previous plans called for it to become a club and hotel. Now, The Chicago Tribune reports, a developer is proposing to turn the building into a storage facility for the ashes of up to 15,000 people.
Each space in the mausoleum would sell for between $1,000 and $10,000.

Software & Apps iOS Only Browsers & Internet Video & Audio Backup & Utilities Social Networking News & Reference Antivirus & Security Email & Messaging Windows Only Mac Only Android Only View More by Sam Costello Updated March 17, 2017 THIS APP IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE AT ITUNES The Good Makes tracking your meals easyGet often-useful feedback on your food choicesMost meals elicit 15+ ratings The Bad Only as good as its usersNo built-in nutritional information or advice The PriceFree If you're looking to eat healthier or lose weight, tracking the food you eat is crucial. But how to do it? Some people use food diaries that they keep in notebooks. Others may use spreadsheets or custom-made forms. If you who own an iOS device, though, there are many apps that let you track your food intake. The Eatery app not only does this, but also adds the wisdom of other users to give you a rating on the healthiness of your meals. In many ways, The Eatery is an effective meal-tracking app, but as is true of many crowdsourced tools, it's only as helpful as its users. RELATED: Best Weight Loss and Diet Apps for the iPhone Tracking Your Food Intake The Eatery works using two very basic functions. First, take a photo of every meal you eat using the iPhone or iPod touch's built-in digital camera. Then add an optional note about the meal and then rate it on a scale from fit to fat. Each meal, with your rating, is added to your feed. When you add a new photo to your feed, you're also shown photos snapped by other users and asked to rate their meals. Meals are shown anonymously (you won't see the name of the person whose meal you're rating; you don't have to be too worried about someone you know finding out you ate Belgian waffles for dinner—again) and you can skip photos if you don't know how nutritious a meal is or can't figure out what the photo shows. Just as you rate others' meals based on their photos, your photos are shown to other users who rate them. As time passes after your meal, more and more users rate your meal, giving you a rough, user-driven sense of how well or badly you're eating. In my experience, it's fairly common to draw 15-30 ratings of a meal over a day or two, so you're getting a pretty solid cross-section of opinion. Using those crowdsourced ratings for each meal, The Eatery then compiles a composite score for how healthy you're eating every week, using a 0 (unhealthy) to 100 (very healthy) scale. With your meal history available at any time, it's easy to get a real idea of exactly what you've been eating and identify trouble spots. For instance, my meals are extremely healthy, but my snacks are much more mixed, so I know that trying to improve the health of my snacks can improve the overall quality of my nutrition. It also makes it easier to discover that what might seem like an occasional candy bar is actually three a week—a big problem if you're trying to lose weight. Another interesting aspect of using the app is that, when you know that other people will see and rate your meals, you tend to want to eat healthier foods. No one wants to draw a negative rating. This gamification or mild peer coercion can be a big help in getting you to eat better. The Wisdom of Crowds? Those are the strengths of The Eatery, but it has its weaknesses, which lie in the thing that most often causes diets to fail: people themselves. Since the app has its users—regular people—rate each other's meals, the ratings are only as good as the nutrition knowledge of the people doing the rating. And, if the rates of obesity and diabetes in the U.S. are any indication, the nutrition knowledge of the average America is a bit low (putting it charitably). How else to explain that healthy meals like a lentil and quinoa salad would draw unhealthy ratings? All things considered, the users on the whole are likely to rate food correctly. That lentil-quinoa salad ended up with 10+ more positive ratings than negative ones, but the negatives still distorted the overall rating. Luckily, a fair proportion of users seem to be outside the U.S., so the different diets of other countries may help balance out some of the unhealthiness or lack of knowledge among some U.S. users. The other drawback I found in The Eatery also results from the app depending so heavily on crowdsourcing. The crowd can be wise, but it generally can't be expert. Knowing that your food is unhealthy can be useful, but only if you already understand something about nutrition. If you don't know what you don't know, finding out that a meal wasn't that healthy can leave you stuck. You know it was bad, but you don't know why or how you could change it to make it more healthy. This is where expertise could be valuable. If the developers of The Eatery could find a way to not only rate our meals, but also give us guidance based on those ratings, the app would truly create a virtuous pairing. The Bottom Line If you want to get a handle on your nutrition, The Eatery can be a powerful tool. It won't necessarily tell you what to eat, but it will help you identify patterns in your meals and snacks, track your food, and get a sense of how healthy other people think it is. When it comes to eating well and losing weight, understanding what you're putting in your body is a major factor. What You'll Need An iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad running iOS 4.2 or higher.

The fishing industry is always looking for methods to reduce the incidental catch of unwanted species, including protected species. Sometimes it is possible to reduce unintended catch during fishing operations by changing the way gear is constructed and/or used. To properly evaluate new gear types and methods, an experimental version must be tested under a variety of conditions likely to be encountered during a typical commercial trip. Testing not only demonstrates what effects are achieved, but also whether the gear can be safely and efficiently used.
Exempted fisheries typically occur when, in order to gather needed data, an experiment must be conducted using gear or methods that would otherwise be prohibited by existing regulations. An exempted fishing permit (EFP) is a permit issued by the Alaska Region of NMFS to allow these otherwise prohibited fishing activities. These permits are issued for limited experimental purposes to support projects that could benefit the groundfish fisheries and the environment. Examples of past projects supported by an EFP include the development of new gear types for an underutilized fishery and development of devices that reduce prohibited species bycatch.
Anyone who is planning on groundfish fishing activities that would otherwise be prohibited by the regulations may apply for an EFP. The permit is issued to the applicant but a copy must be on the vessel at all times during the project.
Regulations that describe the application and review process for EFPs are at 50 CFR 679.6.

Please explain why you believe a public meeting would be beneficial. If we determine that one would aid this rulemaking, we will hold one at a time and place announced by a later notice in the Federal Register.
Background and Purpose
Coast Guard Sector Hampton Roads has been notified that fireworks displays are scheduled to occur after certain Norfolk Tides home baseball games. Although these displays are fired from land, a portion of the fallout zone is over the Elizabeth River. 33 CFR part 165, subpart C describes a safety zone "as a water area, shore area, or water and shore area to which for safety or environmental purposes, access is limited to authorized persons, vehicles or vessels." Due to the need to protect mariners and spectators from the hazards associated with fireworks displays, the Coast Guard proposes a safety zone limiting access to the Elizabeth River within a 210 foot radius of the fireworks launching area.
Discussion of Proposed Rule
The Coast Guard proposes establishing a safety zone on the specified waters of the Elizabeth River in the vicinity of Harbor Park, Norfolk, VA. This safety zone would encompass all navigable waters within a 210 foot radius of the fireworks launch site, located on land, directly behind the stadium at approximate position 36°50′30″ N/76°16′42″ W (NAD 1983). The proposed regulated area would be established in the interest of public safety during the fireworks display and would be enforced on June 6, July 2, July 3, August 21, September 3, and September 4, 2009, for ten consecutive minutes immediately following the conclusion of the baseball games, between 9 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. Access to the safety zone would be restricted during the specified dates and times. Except for participants and vessels authorized by the Captain of the Port or his Representative, no person or vessel may enter or remain in the regulated area.Start Printed Page 20272
Regulatory Analyses
We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses based on 13 of these statutes or executive orders.
Regulatory Planning and Review
This proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, and does not require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not reviewed it under that Order. Although this proposed regulation would restrict access to the safety zone, the effect of this proposed rule would not be significant because: (i) The safety zone would be in effect for a limited duration; (ii) the zone would be of limited size; and (iii) the Coast Guard will make notifications via maritime advisories so mariners can adjust their plans accordingly. For the above reasons, the Coast Guard does not anticipate any significant economic impact.
Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have considered whether this proposed rule would have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The term "small entities" comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000.
The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This proposed rule would affect the following entities, some of which may be small entities: Owners and operators of vessels intending to transit or anchor in that portion of the Elizabeth River from 9 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. on June 6, July 2, July 3, August 21, September 3, and September 4, 2009. The safety zone would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons. The safety zone will only be in place for a limited duration. The safety zone would be of limited size. Maritime advisories will be issued allowing the mariners to adjust their plans accordingly. Furthermore, the safety zone would apply to only a small portion of the Elizabeth River; there would be adequate space for mariners to safely transit around the zone.
If you think that your business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what degree this rule would economically affect it.
Assistance for Small Entities
Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small entities in understanding this proposed rule so that they can better evaluate its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking. If the rule would affect your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please contact Lieutenant Tiffany Duffy, Chief, Waterways Management Division, Sector Hampton Roads, Coast Guard; telephone 757-668-5580, e-mail email@example.com. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard.
Collection of Information
This proposed rule would call for no new collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).
A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this proposed rule under that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for federalism.
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538) requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 or more in any one year. Though this proposed rule would not result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble.
Taking of Private Property
This proposed rule would not effect a taking of private property or otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property Rights.
Civil Justice Reform
This proposed rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.
Protection of Children
We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not an economically significant rule and would not create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that might disproportionately affect children.
Indian Tribal Governments
This proposed rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, because it would not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.
Energy Effects
We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a "significant energy action" under that order because it is not a "significant regulatory action" under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects under Executive Order 13211.
Technical Standards
The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress, through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why using these Start Printed Page 20273standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies.
This proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.
We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland Security Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have made a preliminary determination that this action is one of a category of actions which do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. A preliminary environmental analysis checklist supporting this determination is available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.

Trade Board, Auto Channel Mending Fences
Trade Board, Auto Channel mending fences
... After lawyers challenge legality of Motor Vehicle Import Policy
On November 10, lawyers representing Auto Channel Limited accused the Trade Board Limited of acting outside the law when it denied recertification of the used-car dealer under the Motor Vehicle Import Policy.
"A motor vehicle policy is not law," wrote Stuart Stimpson of Hart Muirhead Fatta Attorneys-at-Law. Nor can the portfolio minister delegate his authority to regulate vehicle imports to a statutory body. That agency, "based on our best advice", can only advise him, said Stimpson.
The minister's authority resides under Section 8 of the Trade Act and only that instrument, he wrote.
That letter to Trade Administrator Victor Cummings was written two weeks after the Trade Board wrote to Auto Channel denying the company recertification as a used-car dealer and close to three weeks after Jamaica Customs Agency refused to clear eight vehicles imported by the car dealer, for which it had permits, on the directive of the Trade Board.
The correspondence appears to have had the effect of clarifying positions.
On Wednesday, November 20, both Cummings and Auto Channel's owner Lynvalle Hamilton told Sunday Business that they were moving to mend fences, following a meeting with the parties earlier that day.
"We are working it out," said Cummings, but held back on the substance of the talks.
Auto Channel became the first casualty of the revised consumer-friendly Motor Vehicle Import Policy on October 24 when the Trade Board opted not to renew its permit to import. The trade agency previously told Sunday Business that Auto Channel had breached Section 9.1 of the policy, which deals with consumer protection, trade laws, and fit and proper tests for dealers.
Auto Channel's lawyers challenged the action, saying it was "arbitrary and discriminatory" and based on allegations that have not been legally proven.
"We are trying to resolve it. That's all that I
can say," said
Cummings who is also CEO of the Trade Board.
"Minister Hylton convened a meeting with all the parties and discussions are moving forward and the issue should be resolved soon."
Cummings has not commented publicly on which aspect of Section 9.1 Auto Channel had breached. However, other information seems to rule out consumer protection breaches.
A November 5, 2014, letter from the Consumer Affairs Commission (CAC) to Hamilton, obtained by Sunday Business, says: "As per the complaint records at the CAC, Auto Channel Ltd has not, to date, been cited with any breach of the Consumer Protection Act."
The Fair Trading Commission, which has been probing the used-car trade for more than a year, did not respond to a request for comment. However, the Auto Channel head says he knows of no breaches of laws overseen by either CAC or the FTC.
Hamilton, who is also the president of the Jamaica Used- Car Dealers Association (JUCDA), says he anticipates an amicable resolution to the impasse with the Trade Board.
"The minister gave me his word that it will be sorted out. Based on the minister's comments I am a little optimistic that it will be sorted out and we will move on amicably," he said.
Hamilton said Customs' refusal to clear his vehicles in late October led to him having to refund deposits to purchasers even as he incurred other charges for storage of the vehicles at the wharf, but he said the impact on his company was contained because of customer loyalty.
"There are those who believed in us and decided to wait because they knew of the reputation of the company before and they just believed that it would have been sorted out. So nothing great of an impact, I would say," he said.
His lawyers had demanded an offer of settlement from the Trade Board, but on Wednesday, Hamilton said there was now a concerted effort by all the parties to "make bygones be bygones".
"Based on the minister's comments, I believe that we will be recertified very soon," he said.

METHUEN — A Methuen teenager, accused of running down a 12-year-old boy in a Lowell crosswalk, and her father are being sued by the boy's family.
On Dec. 4, attorneys Barry A. Feinstein of Peabody and Peter J. Carrozza of Methuen filed a suit in Lawrence Superior Court against Michelle Medeiros and her father, Fernando, both of 14 Bernard Lane, on behalf of Dao Savanhmixay and her son, Kelvin.
The lawsuit stems from an accident Nov. 18 and alleges that Michelle Medeiros, alone and at the wheel of her father's car, struck Kelvin while driving back to Lawrence from Lowell.
As a result of the accident, the suit said, Kelvin Savanhmixay "has suffered and continues to suffer great pain of body and mind," and "has been prevented from enjoying life and has suffered permanent loss of function and disfigurement."
Medeiros, 17, a senior at Methuen High, pleaded not guilty earlier this month to charges of leaving the scene of an accident, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, passing a vehicle stopped for a pedestrian, failure to use caution when changing lanes, and operating at a speed greater than reasonable and proper.
She was initially charged with leaving the scene of a personal injury accident. Her driver's license was revoked.
Medeiros was visiting the University of Massachusetts Lowell campus the day of the accident.
According to Lowell police, Medeiros was returning to Lawrence in a rush when she passed a car that had stopped to let Kelvin cross the street.
Medeiros' car struck Kelvin, throwing him about 20 feet in the air at the Mammoth Road and Route 113 intersection, and left him for dead, police said.
Instead of stopping, she drove to a Lawrence salon to get her hair done, police said.
Medeiros then called Lawrence police to report that the blue Acura was vandalized near the salon.
She tried to cover up the accident by filing a false police report in Lawrence and towing the vehicle to a body shop, police said. The car had a broken bumper and a large depression in the windshield.
Lawrence police Officer Adam Goujon had heard a regional police radio broadcast describing the car sought in Lowell, and he remembered the report of the vandalized Acura in Lawrence. Goujon connected the two reports.
According to police, Medeiros confessed after the officer contacted Lowell police to report the damaged Acura matched the description of the car sought in Lowell.
Police officers from Lawrence, Methuen and Lowell went to the body shop. Lowell officers identified the car as the one described by witnesses. It had an estimate for the damage on the dashboard.

Canadian indie dev Over the Moon Games has announced The Fall Part 2: Unbound is delayed until February 2018. It's the sequel to The Fall, a 2014 side-scrolling platform and adventure game which saw you take the roll of an artificial intelligence. In the first game, the Autonomous Robotic Interface Device (A.R.I.D) of a combat exoskeleton had to take over when the pilot is unresponsive. It was well received by critics, and the sequel was announced earlier this year for the Nintendo Switch, alongside the PC, Mac, Linux, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 version.
The decision to delay the game is partly to allow some extra polish to be added. And as the press release admits, to also avoid the packed pre-Christmas gaming release schedule.
"We are really excited about our new project and we want to thank all of our fans for their continued patience. The team at Over The Moon have poured their hearts and souls into making sure that everything in The Fall Part 2: Unbound is there for a reason," said John Warner, CEO of Over The Moon, "With The Fall Part 2: Unbound, our goal is to give players a deeper level of gameplay and story integration than they have ever seen before. We want this game to shock you, excite you, make you laugh, thematically challenge you and put you in situations you have never been in before. It's our highest goal that video games can change people for the better, and The Fall part 2: Unbound is as rich with interesting ideas as it is fun to play."
The second game will once again mix Metroid type action with point-and-click adventure, and see you once again controlling A.R.I.D. This time, the abandoned and broken AI will be trying to build her own rules whilst avoiding being destroyed for good. Which sounds pretty interesting…

So, you don't want to dress like Harley Quinn?
Crazy, I know. San Diego Comic Con, the big daddy that kicked off the nation's convention season in July, was a good indicator that DC's sexy, deranged jester will be the costume du jour at this weekend's Tampa Bay Comic Con. And why not? With Margot Robbie's turn as Harley in Suicide Squad, out Friday, the character is hot. She has a sense of humor, and a lot of style.
Related: Everything you need to know about Tampa Bay Comic Con
Ah, but maybe you're not skinny. Maybe you're not female. Maybe you're not comfortable in fishnets. Maybe — let's just say it — you're not white.
The art of cosplay, dressing up like your favorite fictional characters, is such a creative pop culture pursuit. And it's mostly a happy one. But that doesn't mean it's without blemishes.
A beautiful thing about con culture is that gender has become really fluid. Women dress like male characters and it is not a big deal. Surf blogs for San Diego coverage and you'll see refreshingly sober descriptions of costumes. It's not, "Here's a lady dressed as Superman!" It's just, "Here's Superman." Men, too, dress like women, though it's usually more of a joking tone. Wonder Woman has a lot of body hair, and so on.
Factor in race, and it gets more complicated.
There's a simmering conversation online, an important one, about race in geek culture. It centers on a glaring lack of characters of color, especially black women, in science fiction, comics and fantasy.
Some smart folks are working to heighten the issue. Cosplayer Chaka Cumberbatch spearheaded #29DaysOfBlackCosplay during Black History Month, designed to celebrate black cosplayers. (The year before it was 28, but, Leap Year.) Cumberbatch wrote on blackgirlnerds.com that the hope was to "make this hobby open, inclusive and welcoming to everyone." Other resources for inspiration include the Tumblr page Cosplaying While Black.
I went to MegaCon in Orlando a few years back in a group with a friend, Desiree Fantal. She's 32, a theater photographer in Tampa and an admitted geek who loves to cosplay. She's black.
When she first got into cosplay, she just picked characters she liked, sewed the costumes and went on her way. Then, she noticed something.
"I don't know when exactly it clicked for me, but I realized if I wanted to do a black character, I really had to think," she said to me recently. "It didn't just pop into my head as easily as everyone else. It really started to bug me."
She found black characters, but they were rarely main attractions. They felt more ancillary, not the kind you point to and recognize right away.
She felt a conviction to represent black characters at conventions. Her cosplay has included Martha Jones from Doctor Who and Storm from X-Men. She blurred gender lines as Geordi LaForge, LeVar Burton's character from Star Trek: The Next Generation.
It would be easy, and maybe too simplistic, to say, "just go as white characters." Desiree has done that, too. This year, she's going to Tampa Bay Comic Con as Martha Jones again, but she also has a costume for the white cartoon character Louise Belcher from Bob's Burgers. She has gone to a con as Waldo from Where's Waldo?
"It's not a huge deal; it's cosplay," she said. "But it kind of is. It's something you enjoy doing, and you don't see anyone who looks like you."
Sometimes, when black cosplayers play white characters, they're subjected to cruel online commentary. Furthermore, everyone deserves to feel represented in the entertainment they love. Cosplayers of color shouldn't have to resort to a list of white characters.
There are positive moves. In 2015, Marvel Comics replaced Peter Parker with Miles Morales, an African-American/Puerto Rican Spider-Man. But leaked Sony emails showed that studio executives want him to stay white in movies. Black actor Michael B. Jordan was cast as the Human Torch in 2015's Fantastic Four movie. Marvel also has a black female character named Riri Williams stepping in for Tony Stark in the Iron Man comics. And Disney recently introduced a new Latina princess, Elena of Avalor.
Cosplay is really a systemic symptom of priorities in popular culture. It comes down to writers and artists being bold and fearless about demanding diversity in their heroes and villains.
And in the meantime, if you want to dress like Harley Quinn, but don't look like her? There is no time like now to do it anyway.

Testimonials and Case Studies from Our Parents
SchoolTutoring Academy has played an important role in improving our son's confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was very self-conscious about her difficulties with the math section of the SAT. SchoolTutoring Academy's Academic Directors created an action plan that boosted my daughter's score and confidence level.
SchoolTutoring Academy has not only improved my son's standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades. Test Prep Academy has not only improved my son's standardized test scores but also his high school math and English grades.
SchoolTutoring Academy Increased My SAT Score By 200 Points
My son's math marks in high school have always been weak so I found it very beneficial that his ACT tutor worked on solidifying his fundamentals while prepping for the ACT.
SchoolTutoring Academy gave my daughter the confidence she needed to boost her SAT score Thank you!
SchoolTutoring has played an important role in improving our son's confidence and attitude towards school. His grades have also improved steadily throughout the school year.
My daughter was able to improve her test scores after a few months of tutoring with SchoolTutoring. However, while raising test scores is great, the real payoff is in the self-confidence that she gained.
I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank-you! My son is very impressed with his tutor and looks forward to each session. What's particularly amazing about this is our son has never really looked forward to math or school for that matter!
We are so happy with the results of your tutoring program and academic support. Homework time was such a stressful evening for the entire evening before we brought your tutors into our home. Thank you for all your help!
Our daughter, a first grader, struggled with basic reading and handwriting. When she began with SchoolTutoring she was almost a year behind her class. Within a year of being enrolled, she is reading above her grade level and has the confidence to match.

Chalk Talk: Sports: Not Just Fun and Games
While playing sports can be fun, getting children involved in sports can have many academic and social benefits. Children who play team sports learn how to cooperate and work as a team. Understanding how to work well with others is an essential skill not just for sports, but for education and jobs as well. Playing sports also helps kids learn about time-management skills. Whether it's shooting a basket before time expires or beating their previous personal best in the 200 meter hurdles, learning to work within time restrictions on the field will help kids meet time deadlines in the classroom. Kids who play sports also benefit from increased self-confidence and self-esteem. The hard work they put in to improve their performance on the court or on the field will give them the confidence and motivation they need to tackle their educational goals.

There is little that immerses eco-travelers in nature like camping, but when one doesn't have to deal with the struggle of pitching a tent or sleeping on lumpy ground, the blanket of stars above will probably twinkle even brighter.
Combined, the words glamorous and camping become "glamping," and the increasingly popular experience makes for happy campers — or "glampers" — who get to revel in the great outdoors without truly roughing it. From upscale safari tents in Kenya to a Swiss treehouse perfect for playing hide-and-seek, here are six glamping spots that will sway luxury clients to check out of their conventional hotel rooms.
British Columbia: Clayoquot Wilderness ResortTwenty luxe white-canvas tents outfitted with antique furniture and heirloom china and silver accessories make up the all-inclusive Clayoquot Wilderness Resort in British Columbia. The executive chef conjures up locally sourced Cascadian cuisine, such as seared albacore tuna with poached fingerling potato salad or Muscovy duck breast paired with yam puree, fresh vegetables and orange duck jus. Adventure activities, including mountain biking, ziplining and archery, are offered and personalized to each guest's experience level.
Chile: EcoCamp PatagoniaChoose from four geodesic dome experiences at the green-conscious EcoCamp Patagonia. Spaces range from 108 square feet — ideal for solo travelers who don't mind sharing a bathroom — to 398 square feet, which includes an open terrace, an enclosed porch and a second-story loft. A Community Dome offering meals and cocktails serves as EcoCamp's social hub, while the Yoga Dome invites guests to partake in yoga, stretching or dancing. Tours that trek through the adjacent plains, glacial lakes, waterfalls and mountains can be booked separately.
England: Priory Bay HotelSet apart from Priory Bay Hotel's classic accommodations and perched above the private tree-lined beach is its chic collection of island-made yurts. Though each Mongolian tribe-inspired abode is styled by a different designer, all have stable doors with French windows, a secluded terrace, an en suite bathroom and a king-size bed. Guests who opt for the yurt experience can still tee off on the property's six-hole golf course, play a round of croquet or enroll in a falconry course.
For those who would rather not "rough it" while getting up close and personal with nature, glamping at the stunning Clayoquot Wilderness Resort in British Columbia is a favored option. // © 2015 Clayoquot Wilderness Resort
A Suite Dome at EcoCamp Patagonia in Chile has comforting amenities such as a private bathroom and a heater, but is still eco-friendly with beautiful wildlife just outside.// © 2015 EcoCamp Patagonia
Yurts at Priory Bay Hotel in England include stable doors with French windows, a king-size bed, an en suite bathroom and a secluded terrace, as well as access to the property's activities (a falconry course, for example). // © 2015 Priory Bay Hotel

Switzerland's Treehotel offers an array of extraordinary glamping experiences to choose from, including the Mirrorcube, which effortlessly blends in with its pine-tree surroundings. // © 2015 Peter Lundstrom, WDO/Treehotel
Only bamboo railing and lightweight drapes separate guests from nature at Bangkok Tree House in Thailand. // © 2015 Bangkok Tree House
Kenya: Elephant Pepper CampRecently refurbished, this elegant encampment in the heart of Maasai Mara National Reserve includes eight one-bedroom tents and two larger tents with a master bedroom and a sitting room. Rinse off a day of game drives and bush walks with a hot shower, as running water is accessible in select tents. Guests can also arrange for a private Italian dinner (vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options are available) or read a book from the on-site library as the sun rises over the open savannah plains.
Switzerland: TreehotelTreehotel is the realization of a common childhood daydream: living in a magical treehouse. Suspended approximately 13 to 19 feet above ground and overlooking the Lulua River, this contemporary glamping experience ensures deliberately minimal impact to the environment. Though the design of each "treeroom" is extraordinary and unique, the Mirrorcube is a standout pick. A bridge leads up to the camouflaged abode, which has exterior walls covered in reflective glass that mirror the pine-tree surroundings.
Thailand: Bangkok Tree HouseWhen the label of a lodging option scrambles the phrase "a room with a view" into "a view with a room," guests can correctly assume they're in for some serious eye candy. Sleep soundly from 23 feet up in the air at this island oasis sans walls or ceiling — just bamboo railing and lightweight drapes that sway gently in the breeze. Though local creatures such as lizards, cicadas, fireflies and birds might show up uninvited to the treetop party, free around-the-clock ice cream and complimentary Wi-Fi access (to share envy-inducing images on social media) offer ample consolation.

About the Website:
Wellness and Chill is a website for those who believe that just as a person is more than the sum of their parts, so is the world. As we go through life, it is increasingly apparent that everything is interconnected. Health intersects with culture. Art intersects with politics. Geography intersects with how we view the world. It's all connected.
For me, creating a website dedicated to only one aspect of my being and of the world seemed limited. I wanted to create a website that was multifaceted, but was coherent enough to tell a story if you looked hard enough.
Here's my attempt to put together all of the pieces.
Original and curated posts about my personal wellness, integrating culture and wellness into daily practice, and current research and policy relating to health and nutrition.
Fake Art Student Things
Join this Fake Art Student (me) as I explore the international arts and culture scenes.
Actions and Events
What I'm doing and where I am. Alternatively, what you could be doing and where you could be. Let's hang.
What I Read This Week
A weekly digest of the news, journalism, research, and posts from around the Internet that are just too good to pass up. Occasionally, there will be book reviews and other noteworthy tidbits here.
& Chill
For everything else.

I have made it my life-long mission to help educate and inspire others to live the life of their dreams. Through sharing my stories of struggles and successes, I have been able to stay authentic and true to myself, while also helping others. While I have a business that is built on that foundation, I believe anyone can inspire at any stage in their life.
In America, we are conditioned to always be striving for the next "success," This is usually a positive thing – it helps us stay disciplined in order to grow, keeps us focused, and ensures progress. There are times, however, that we can look at the wrong things and call them "successful." While material possessions may symbolize someone's status in terms of financial wealth, possessions can never symbolize one's health.
One common definition of health is the absence of disease. I like to define health as a well-rounded balance of physical, emotional, mental and relational strength and endurance that is most often enjoyed. Why? In life, we will always have some kind of problems, troubles, things that just happen, and even medical issues.
I don't believe in claiming or speaking disease or negativity into someone's life, but we all know that sometimes disease is the manifestation of physical stress. We need to take time to slow down and balance ourselves. Health is a well-rounded balance.
Sometimes striving for success becomes very esoteric and ill defined. What is success anyways?
How would you define it?
To me, success is continuously becoming better and helping others get better too. Success to me means nothing if I am all alone, and don't have a healthy balance in my body, mind, spirit and relationships. I have made it my duty to share stories (even taboo ones) of my real-life-experiences, not as a crutch, but as a tool for healing myself and helping others heal.
Whatever your story is, whether it be past abuse, homelessness, crime, drugs, jail, being in an unhealthy relationship, losing everything – your story is valuable. Your story is valuable to someone you may not even know. Maybe what you went through, someone else is currently going through and they need some hope that they`ll get beyond it. Maybe someone else went through it and let it destroy their life, but you've struggled to rise above. It's your duty to share how you did it.
Everyone in this world needs hope. You are valuable and authentic.
For Part of my Story, Listen here: http://www.hipcast.com/podcast/HV39Q95Q
We've all witnessed this. We've seen the athletes or celebrities with millions of dollars who are constantly in trouble with the law, in domestic partnerships disputes, or dead-beats to their children. We've witnessed some of the "most successful people" in the spotlight for their personal failure. Professionalism and personal character are tied together! Whatever is done in the dark will eventually come to light. If you are highly talented, but suck as a person – you will eventually lose your career position, and be left with yourself. If you are highly talented and have a good character, you will continue your wins even when you lose the game, a deal, or make a mistake. Someone who has good character can be respected; while someone without it is hard to respect them.
Get out today, and do something to help you build a better personality, better mentality, and in turn your behaviors will change. You will be one step closer to your success!
In America, we tend to think about being "healthy" in an external way. The reality is, health is also mental.
Too often we look at the outside of someone and deem them "healthy" when they may be physically or emotionally decaying inside. Hand-in-hand with physical health, is mental, spiritual and emotional health (to name a couple others). We have this unhealthy view of what health is. We tend to think people who are skinny are healthy. We also think those who carry an extra 20 pounds are unhealthy (not always), and we judge those who eat ice-cream, but glorify those who drink every weekend because their life is "care-free" and "fun." We tell women who lift heavy weights that they're "bulky" or "husky" instead of glorifying their strength. We crave social attention, and are addicted to our technology – phones, laptops, computers, etc. We even go as far as to call things "healthy addictions" (like working out 'too much'). In America, we forget what our bodies really need, and over-stress ourselves into disease, anger, anxiety, and obesity.
Nearly 70% of Americans are overweight, and 40% are considered obese. There is new scientific research that claims that a calorie burned is a calorie burned, but a calorie consumed is NOT a calorie stored (Dr. Robert Lustig).

1. REMEMBER YOUR BRAND. My brand is Inspired By Purpose – it's self explanatory really – I am inspired and aim to inspire others because I know I have a purpose, and I help others find theirs. This means that everyone I choose to associate myself with must be someone who is inspiring, and someone who has a clearly defined purpose; when you know your purpose – you become passionate. It's essential to only associate with individuals and companies who truly stand for their brand, and that your company has some sort of overlap with.
2. INTENTIONALLY SEEK RELATIONSHIPS WITH PURPOSE-DRIVEN INDIVIDUALS. Both in life, and in business, it is important that we seek out, cultivate, and flourish in relationships with others. Who we associate with can either make us or break us, and relationships with purpose-driven individuals can also help us drive forward with our purpose. Not only do purpose-driven people help us remember our "WHY" but they also help us generate ideas – one good idea breeds another, and another. When you cultivate these relationships, you can easily reach out for help, an opinion, council or just someone to relate to.
3. ALWAYS BE 110% ENGAGED AND PREPARED FOR A COFFEE MEETING. Set the time. Be on time. Dress nice. Comb your hair. Wear some heels. Bring a notepad and pen to jot down ideas. Be willing to fully engage in conversation (put your phone away)! It's inevitable that when brilliant minds come together that there will be free-flowing ideas for your next blog post, collaboration, or big event – write it all down! Whether you're the CEO of your company, or an intern hoping to learn, you must be fully engaged if you want to recruit talent, and find loyalty. Being 110% engaged shows the person sitting across from you that you're willing to listen – not just talk, and that is a skill. Showcase your skills and be more productive by showing up prepared.
4. SMILE AND ASK LOTS OF QUESTIONS. When you smile, you are inviting someone into your space. You're more likely to have a positive conversation, and you help the other person be more open with you. In addition, make eye contact, nod while you're listening, and be genuine. If you are meeting with someone you idolize or you see as an expert in your field, don't forget to ask lots of questions, and jot the answers down! Treat the person you're meeting with with the respect, engagement that they deserve for giving you their time. Most of all, have a good time and help your new colleague do the same.
5. GET INVOLVED. Spend time actively pursuing a common business goal, hobby or travel together. Book a motivational convention together, or better yet – set one up yourselves. Relationship-building tasks will help you go to a deeper level of trust, loyalty, extended networks and circles, and prime you for future opportunity. Don't neglect getting involved in your local and national communities. At the end of the day – we're all in it together.

One of the many classes offered is every Tuesday during the lunch hour. Channéll Holmgren teaches a "boot camp" at Wingfield Park from noon to 1 p.m.
"Shape Up Reno offers something for everyone," says Addie Vivas, Recreation Assistant for the City of Reno. "From yoga to intense cardio, people can get out and enjoy a nice workout that is right for them."
Teresa came to Sierra Strength and Speed through Motivate U in October 2013 – a program offered by Hometown Health. She has been struggling with an undiagnosed medical condition since May 2009.
As a result, physicians had her on more than 1,000 mg of medication daily. She experienced nearly 20lbs of weight gain in 3 short months. She was unable to drop the weight even after she was taken off the medication.
Her goal was to strengthen her body and lose some of the unwanted pounds, with the hope that some, or all, of her pain that comes with her condition would subside. Within 6 short weeks, she became reacquainted with her body and lost 3.5% body fat. Her transformation was due to 5 hours of weekly exercise and minimal changes to her diet.
Rashes & Swelling all over.
"I was told I had folliculitis, or inflammation
of the hair follicles. Even with my very limited medical expertise, I questioned T HAVE HAIR FOLLICLES ON MY PALMS OR THE I was given more steroids and Benadryl and sent on my way."
While, she continues to struggle with her medical condition and pain, she continued on with us at SSS after her #MotivateU program ended. She currently attends circuit training classes 4 times per week and continues to see results. As of today, she is 3 pant sizes smaller!
I'm am proof that anyone can do anything when they set their mind to it! Love yourself enough to LIVE through your challenges!
From Teresa ~
I had an opportunity in October 2013, to join a wellness challenge through my employer. It was 6-week exercise challenge focused on diet, exercise and overall healthy living. I was selected to go to Sierra Strength and Speed. I was nervous and excited at the same time.
The first night, I had to do the preliminary tests, which included; push-ups, sit-ups, weight and body fat ups and 11 modified in one minute, 18 sit-ups in one minute, and body fat over 20%. I began the program and met some great people. I worked hard attending 5 to 6 classes per week and became reacquainted with my body. I won a fitbit for trainers pick of the week for working hard in class and that felt great. Everyday was a new challenge and I didn't see many changes until I got on the scale.
I increased my pushups to 10 plus 13 modified in one minute, and 36 sit-ups in one minute, and a mile in 9 minutes and 21 seconds.
I lost 3.5% body fat and lost under a pound.

Shape Up Reno is a free fitness series offered by the City of Reno and local partners. Fitness sessions last one hour.
Dear Participants,
As a Fitness Expert and Coach I am honored to be a part of the 3rd Annual Shape Up Reno Program in it's the 3rd Operative Year. Each year Andy Bass, Recreation Manager of the City of Reno, has invited me to participate in this program to FIGHT OBESITY in our local community.
My passion is helping other succeed by providing the proper tools and resources for them. For many, cost is a huge factor when it comes to gym memberships or private training. Shape Up Reno has been one of the best programs I have been involved in.
Each week, I donate one hour of my time to help reduce costs for participants, and give back to the community. It is not only a great way to meet new people, but also an unconventional way to help inspire the city of Reno to get moving!
Reno is rated as the number one most alcoholic city in America. This is not surprising with the casino industry. With fast foods everywhere, casinos, alcohol, and sedentary lifestyles, I am to inspire others to get moving by showcasing our class in the park.
If you wish to attend, please feel free to contact me directly or contact The City of Reno. You may find other class information on The City of Reno Homepage.
Most Sincerely,
Please call the City of Reno at (775) 334-2262 or Channéll Holmgren at (775) 400-8333 for more information.
