A State Scorecard on Long-Term Services and Supports for Older Adults, People with Physical Disabilities, and Family Caregivers
Older people and adults with disabilities, particularly those with care needs, can benefit from care coordination. The field is changing rapidly with nearly half of the states moving to Medicaid managed care for its populations needing long-term services and supports (LTSS). This study finds that states are requiring care coordination and that care coordinators are critical points of contact for consumers and their family caregivers.

To add a twist on the checkered pattern I added a zipper. This cake exudes an air of luxury because of the LV patterns and at gold color motif used on the ribbons and the bead work on top of the cake.

In a metal bowl, set over a pan of barely simmering water melt the bittersweet chocolate and the unsweetened chocolate with the butter, stirring until the mixture is smooth, remove the bowl from the heat, and let the mixture cool until it is lukewarm. Stir in the sugar and the vanilla and add the eggs, 1 at a time, stirring well after each addition. Stir in the salt and the flour, stirring until the mixture is just combined, and stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into a well-buttered and floured 13 by 9-inch baking pan, smooth the top, and bake the mixture in the middle of a preheated 350 degrees F. oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a tester comes out with crumbs adhering to it. Let the mixture cool completely in the pan on a rack and cut it into 24 bars.

Institutionally blind? International organisations and human rights abuses in the former Soviet Union
Publisher: Foreign Policy Centre, United Kingdom
Gubad Ibadoglu of the Economic Research Center contributed to this report, which highlights the need to improve transparency and public understanding around how delegations to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) and the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly (OSCE PA) operate, looking at the reasons why politicians overlook human rights concerns.
The publication looks at ways make the delegations more attractive to ambitious politicians and better integrate their work into policy-making. It also notes how the CIS Parliamentary Assembly imitates the practices of PACE and the OSCE PA, while acting as rubber stamp for their regimes and giving credence to flawed elections.
Ibadoglu, whose Baku-based think tank has been subject to governmental harassment, wrote a chapter for the report called "Examining the implementation of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative in Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan." His report concludes that the initiative has failed to ensure that countries that adopt it respect free and effective equal participation by society in the process.
Institutionally blind? assesses the shift in EU policy away from 'values promotion' towards a more traditional focus on economic opportunities and regional security. However, it shows that for the most part the European Parliament (EP) has pushed to keep human rights on the agenda and it has a key role to play in the ratification of EU Agreements that must not be ignored.

Sacred trees line the route to Olympic downhill gold medal
The most prized Olympic titles in Alpine skiing will be won this month on downhill courses raced only once before, and lined with trees that are sacred as symbols of fertility.
Only after the South Korean region was picked as host in 2011 were the wide speed tracks in Jeongseon cut through the forest. The mountain is now a pure competition venue for the Pyeongchang Games rather than a hub for ski tourism.
The best downhillers have each had only one World Cup race - in February 2016 for the men, last March for the women - to fully test the jumps and terrain in cold air sweeping down from Siberia.
"I think it's very unique," said 2010 Olympic champion Lindsey Vonn, who was runner-up in the women's test race. "There are a lot of elements on the Olympic track that aren't on any World Cup (course)."
All the Olympic speed races will be run in Jeongseon, with practice runs starting Thursday for the men's downhill race on Sunday. The women race on Feb. 21. They will take different routes down to a common finish area at an altitude of only 545 meters (1,788 feet).
Two separate downhill courses had been planned by veteran designer Bernhard Russi, the 1972 Sapporo Olympic champion. He changed direction to protect more of the holy trees.
The men's course starts at higher altitude - 1,370 meters (4,495 feet), compared to 1,275 meters (4,183 feet) for the women.
It has "a bit of everything," said Beat Feuz, the men's world champion who, like Vonn, arrived in South Korea as favorite to take gold.
"It's not extremely steep. It has big jumps. It has technical sections. And it also has gliding parts," added the Swiss racer, who was fifth two years ago in the men's test race behind winner Kjetil Jansrud of Norway.
A well-balanced course on unfamiliar terrain - it's now the norm to decide Olympic gold in a marquee event with a tradition of surprise winners.
At the 2014 Sochi Olympics, the Rosa Khutor downhill was also created for the games with a single World Cup dress rehearsal. Then, Matthias Mayer of Austria added to the list of men, including American skier Tommy Moe in 1994, whose first career victory made them Olympic downhill champion.
Mayer is a contender to retain his title on a course in Jeongseon that, at 2.8 kilometers (1.7 miles), is about 600 meters (1/3 mile) shorter than the Sochi Olympic course. It should take 25 fewer seconds to complete.
"It's a minute-40, so it's a sprint," said Steven Nyman, the American who placed third in the 2016 test downhill but will miss the Olympics because of injury. "Fight for speed wherever you can. Fight, fight, fight for aerodynamics."
The women's winning time shapes up to be just under 1 minute, 40 seconds, like when Sofia Goggia of Italy edged Vonn by only 0.07 for victory last season.
Both courses demand technical skills to maintain speed around sweeping turns and across traverses, before soaring off a long jump down the final slope.
"There's also some interesting side hills on the bottom," Vonn said, "and then the finish jump is big, very similar to the Vancouver downhill in 2010."
Vonn also sees some similarities with Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, where she has won the storied women's downhill six times.
Two World Cup venues with similar dry snow are comparable to the men's Olympic course. Both of them have suited Jansrud and Norwegian teammate Aksel Lund Svindal.
"A little like Kvitfjell, maybe the last part of Beaver Creek with the high jumps," said Didier Defago, the International Ski Federation's test racer on the Olympic course.
Defago took downhill gold in 2010, joined by Svindal and Bode Miller on the medal podium.
"Maybe it's a short downhill," Defago added, "but it can be an attractive downhill."
Associated Press writer Eric Willemsen in Bad Kleinkircheim, Austria, contributed to this report.

WinWater Home Mortgage's first prime jumbo securitization of the year is backed by a mix of 15-year and 30-year loans, according to DBRS.
WinWater Mortgage Loan Trust 2016-1 is backed by 510 loans with a total principal balance of $407.9 million. The trust will issue multiple senior classes of certificates backed by either a pool of 30-year fixed-rate mortgages or a pool of 15-year fixed-rate mortgages. The trust will also issue subordinate certificates that will be cross-collateralized between the two pools. This is generally known as "Y-Structure," according to DBRS.
Originators for the 30-year mortgages include Caliber Home Loans (12.6%), Ditech Mortgage Corp. (9.7%), LoanDepot.com (8.1%), Stonegate Mortgage Corp. (7.2%) and various other originators, each comprising less than 5% of the total.
Originators for the 15-year mortgages include Ditech (13.5%), Banc of California (11.7%), Homeowners Financial Group (11.4%), LoanDepot (7.2%), Mega Capital Funding (6.3%) and various other originators, each comprising less than 5% of the total.
All of the loans will be serviced by Cenlar. Wells Fargo Bank will act as the master servicer, securities administrator and custodian.
DBRS' presale report does not indicate the respective balances of the two pools of mortgages. However, it notes that borrowers of 15-year loans have historically exhibited better performance for their ability to assume higher monthly payments than their 30-year counterparts. Also, the faster amortization of 15-year loans builds equity more rapidly, thus resulting in lower default risk.
The ratings agency assigned a preliminary AAA to all of the senior classes, though some of these classes benefit from 15% credit enhancement and some from only 7.5%.
Among other risk factors, approximately 6% of the loans are to finance second homes, which represent slightly higher default risk relative to owner-occupied loans; however, the liquid reserves of these borrowers is substantial. There are no investment properties in this pool.
Further adding to risk, approximately 46% of the borrowers have more than one mortgaged property, and there is one borrower with two mortgaged properties in the deal.

GOOD SERVICEI ordered a pair of trousers from this site and I must say the service I received was excellent, as I was kept informed of the status of my order, right up to the delivery of the item. I was receiving regular emails telling when my order was out for delivThe only criticism I would have is that in the item description it stated that there would be a detachable belt included however, my trousered arrived with it missing. However, I'm not too fussed about that. I would definitely use this company again.

"Academic All-Star" Charity Cordova surprisingly enjoys chemistry
KLEW cares about you, that's why every week we feature a local student who is excelling in and outside the classroom. This week's student comes to us from Pullman High School.
Meet Charity Cordova, a junior from Pullman High School. While she maintains a high GPA in the classroom, Charity is also heavily involved in school. She is a member of the Cross Country team, Key Club, and the Drama Club which she just finished her first production recently in the show Cinderella.
"I really love the environment, the people there are super, super nice, they're very open," said Cordova. "People were really supportive.
In the classroom her favorite subject is chemistry, which she didn't think she would enjoy as much before.
"It's challenged me quite a bit and so it's fun to grow and to learn and it's a really great experience," said Cordova.
While Charity still has more than a year left in school, she's already thinking ahead to her future. She would like to work in the medical field and this past summer she worked as a surgical assistant.
"That was extremely fun and I found it very interesting and I found that I enjoy it a lot more than I probably thought I would," said Cordova.
Congratulations Christy Cordova, you're this week's "Academic All-Star."

A body mass index (BMI) does give some indication of your heart risks, but you're quite right to flag up the level of fat around your waist, as your waist circumference gives a more accurate indication than your BMI of your risks of both cardiovascular disease and diabetes. If you're exercising regularly, a significant amount of your weight should relate to muscle rather than fat, which is good news. However, it's worth getting your cholesterol and blood glucose checked and intra-abdominal fat, which is what makes a big waist so damaging, can make you prone to raised glucose and triglycerides, and low levels of HDL cholesterol, which helps protect you against heart disease.

WHETHER A FIFTH, SIXTH OR SEVENTH "network" goes on the air in the next 15 months, the Big Three and Fox Broadcasting Co. may have discovered the perfect way to hang on to audience share: movies.
As independent stations hop on the original programming bandwagon with the likes of "Baywatch" and "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine," networks seem to be finding again and again that feature films, properly scheduled, can capture vast numbers of viewers — sometimes in second or third runs.
This is hardly a new phenomenon. Many will remember growing up with the James Bond movies playing time and again on ABC, or such perennials as "The Ten Commandments" and "The Wizard of Oz."
Still, the assumption that homevideo, pay cable, pay-per-view and a variety of other options would undercut the viability of feature films on TV has failed to materialize.
The theory at least makes sense. Why would someone watch an edited, commercial-interrupted, poorly dubbed (or as they said in the TV version of Brian De Palma's "Scarface,""Forget you, you freak!") movie after they've seen the same flick in a theater, on video or on cable?
Certain movies lend themselves to repeated viewing, particularly in selected demographics. Kids, for example, can watch the same thing until the tape breaks, so it's not surprising that "Beethoven" or last week's Thanksgiving-night telecast of "Home Alone" would capture significant ratings.
Yet the evidence shows adults are no less susceptible. Consider the following , within the last few months:
- Nov. 14: "Backdraft" captures a huge share of the 18-49 demographic and a 15.6/23 in households against the opening of "Return to Lonesome Dove."
- Nov. 7: "Dances With Wolves" and "Ghost," airing opposite each other, combine for a 51 share from 9-11 p.m.
- Oct. 17: ABC's repeat telecast of "Pretty Woman" captures a 21.1/33 — better than its first airing — opposite the World Series and the opening installment of an NBC miniseries.
- Sept. 26: "Sleeping With the Enemy" rouses a 17.2/28 for CBS, crushing made-fors on ABC and NBC.
- May 2: NBC's "Fried Green Tomatoes" knocks everyone on its ear with a 23.8/ 38, the highest rating for a feature film on TV in seven years.
- April 4: Moses rises, again, for ABC, as "The Ten Commandments" wins the 9- 11 p.m. slot.
PART OF THIS PHENOMENON may have to do with the blurring of the lines between movies and TV. You probably know someone with a 48- or 50-inch TV set that, unlike earlier models, offers almost crystal clarity. You've also probably seen a movie at a multiplex where the screens don't appear to be much larger than that.
Another big factor may be that folks are less willing to commit to an ongoing series but don't mind revisiting a movie they've seen before. Would oft-repeated fare like "Miracle on 34th Street" or "It's a Wonderful Life" play in network primetime during the holidays? It's an intriguing notion. None of this conjecture may explain why features seem to work so well on TV, but one thing seems clear: With independent stations devoting more and more time to original product, the networks seem to have both an opportunity and an incentive to become America's in-home revival house.
NEWS IS SUCH SWEEPS SORROW: Local news continued its descent down the evolutionary ladder during the November sweeps, with a major assist from Michael Jackson, the Menendez brothers, Heidi Fleiss, Lorena Bobbitt and supporting players like sexually marauding clergy. Jackson and Bobbitt deserve special kudos, opening the gates for anchors to use words like "penis" and "genitalia" with regularity. "NYPD Blue," eat your heart out.
Tabloid newsmagazines, meanwhile, caved in to their worst tendencies, despite protestations that they're not really the tawdry exercises they used to be. Tell that to anyone who watched "A Current Affair" shamelessly chasing Jackson rumors around Europe.
KNBC-TV anchor Kelly Lange also deserves congratulations for her get-there-last interview with Fleiss. The multipart series did offer an exclusive look inside the alleged Hollywood madam's home, which should send the station's ratings skyrocketing among the interior designer demographic.

The general consensus seems to be that rainy weather is "bad" weather. It has its merits, however.
The most basic of them is that rain waters plants. Even though it's the climate and not the weather that ultimately decides a plant's fate in the long run, one rainfall can be enough to save a lot of plants during a drought. And obviously it's all the rainy weathers accumulated that combine into climate.
Rain is heartwarming. When sunny weather is the time when you go out and participate in various activities, rainy weather is the time when you sit back at home and read a book by a fireplace. Overall rain creates this aura of relaxation and cosiness - for instance the sound of rain drizzling on your windowsill and the natural colours outside that rain causes.
Without rain there would be no snow. Snow is simply beautiful and essential if one wishes to ski, snowboard or sleigh.
Rain is a natural way of cleaning. Begone filthy streets and dusty cars full of bird ****.
Sunlight can be unblelievably annoying if you have to face the sun a certain amount of time. Not only does it hurt and cause damage to your eyes but it is also very tiring when you're exposed to it for too long. Sunburns are another reason why some people avoid sunny days.

It's called having fun hldemi, you should try it sometime.
Hldemi, you're quite the troll and that activity is popular among children... the only kind of adult you are is one with a stick up his anus.
Also, really mature to call someone a kid.
Surely dull topic with no philosophical value can be interested to others. Kids particularly . This site needs "Kids" section to that those "is lemon better then dildo" debates are not in my debate list.
And surely, you are gonna broaden your knowledge by discussing is rain better then sun. Its so engaging and thought provoking.
Im not trying to make you more productive, Im trying to provoke you to snap out of those childish stuff and engage more intellectually appropriate debates that will allow you to learn far more, to expand your horizons and have fun while doing so.
First of all, what you might find as a dull topic can be interesting to others. All the immigration and gun law debates have been done to death.
No topic is "worthless" if the debate is done properly. The art of great debating is not only finding more facts on the internet, but also making your ideas more appealing and relatable to the neutral viewer (notice how dictatorships work).
The topic is defined properly. I'm planning to explain what I define as "better" in the opening statements. The ones you didn't give me a chance to give before condemning my debate to be worthless.
And most importantly every debate doesn't have to be concerning real life problems. I came to this website to broaden my knowledge and have fun. Shame on you for trying to make me feel bad about myself because of that.
Besides, the whole point of your arrogant comment was that I should be more productive with my debates. Would you consider your comments as productive?
Whats the world coming to.
And besides it being worthless theme its also not defined properly. Define "better" ! Whats the point of debating the subjective tastes. Better for what ? Rain is definitely not better for a someone that wants to have picnic in the open or for someone wanting to take a sunbath.

� New.�Help to Buy ISAs - free cash
- Up to �3,000 added to your deposit for first-time buyers
- Earn 4% interest with top paying Help to Buy ISA savings
- A raft of tips for those considering buying their first home
In a govt push to help first-time buyers, this week�Help to Buy (H2B) ISA savings launched. Those 16+ can earn interest of up to 4% and then get 25% added on top when they use it for a mortgage deposit. Nothing else comes close. Parents - it's a great way to save for your kids' future.
The worry is that if there are more first-time buyers, this will up demand, and ramp up property prices. That could make this self-defeating, as even bigger deposits would then be needed. Yet for individuals it's a no-brainer, as if you're the only one not doing it, you miss out...
1. Help to Buy ISAs - what you need to know.�Here are the basics...
- You can save �1,200 in your first month, then �200 each month after. When you use it for a deposit, a 25% bonus is added on top.
- The min you need saved to get a bonus is �1,600 (which'd be �400). You could do that by 1 Feb (�1,200 now, �200 in Jan, �200 on 1 Feb).�
- The biggest bonus possible is �3,000 � which needs �12,000 saved.
- If you're buying with someone who's owned before you can get one, they can't. If two first-time buyers buy together, you can both get one.
- You need to use it on a property costing �250,000 or less, or �450,000 or less within the London boroughs.�
- You don't have to use it for a deposit. You can make partial (or full) withdrawals. You'd still get the interest just not the bonus.
I suspect you've lots of questions. Don't worry, I think I've answered them all in my�FULL Help to Buy ISA�guide, if not then do�feedback�(but PLEASE read the guide first).
2. The top paying Help to Buy ISAs.�14 providers have launched deals, but as anyone can open (ie, you don't need to bank with it to get one), it's a straight fight and only two are worth considering.�
The top payer: For most, it's best to just choose the one with the highest tax-free interest and by a mile that's the�Halifax Help to Buy ISA�at 4%.
The top if you also want a cash ISA: �You're not meant to have a cash ISA and H2B ISA from the same tax year. Yet five firms offer 'split ISAs' that manipulate the rules so you can (max combined savings �15,240/yr); great for those who've already opened a cash ISA this tax year, as you can transfer it in and use some for Help to Buy.�Nationwide is our top pick split, as it has the joint top H2B ISA rate of those at 2%, but the best cash ISA rates.
Most of the providers have now launched, and I think it's unlikely (no surety) other deals will launch soon that'll beat them. Full�Top Help to Buy ISA�rundown.
3. Don't think your Help to Buy ISA dictates your mortgage.�H2B ISAs can be used with ANY residential mortgage (normal mortgage, new build, shared ownership, Help to Buy), just not buy-to-let.
And don't think if you get Halifax's Help to Buy ISA, for example, you must get its mortgage. You're free to get a mortgage from anyone (though it probably hopes you won't, hence why its Help to Buy ISA rate is so high) and should ALWAYS check across the market.
4. Where to save for your deposit if you've filled your Help to Buy ISA. If you've a lump sum, or you're saving �200+/mth (�400/mth if two first timers buying together), you'll need to save elsewhere too.
You want to put your cash in the account paying the highest after-tax interest. From 6 April, the new�personal savings allowance�means basic-rate taxpayers can earn �1,000 interest a year without tax, higher rate �500, so for most tax won't be an issue from then.
-�Earn 3% on up to �20,000.�Switch bank to�Santander 123*�and you get 3% AER on balances of �3,000 to �20,000. It does charge a �2/mth fee (�5/mth from Jan) but this is usually covered by the up to 3% cashback you get if you pay bills via it. For smaller amounts, other banks pay more. See�Top Interest-Paying Bank Accounts.
-�Top cash ISAs.�You can still have past years' cash ISAs with a Help to Buy ISA (see�Top ISA Transfers�to max the rate). Yet for new money you'll need to use a split ISA like�Nationwide's Help to Buy�to be able to get a cash ISA too.�
- Get up to 6% with a regular saver � some bank accounts also offer customers access to linked regular saver accounts where you can put up to �300/mth in with top rates. See�Top Regular Savers.
5. What about Help to Buy mortgages?�They're separate from the ISA; you can use them together but don't need to. There are two types:
-�Help to Buy guarantee. This is the most well known. It's a scheme for lenders where the Govt covers some lenders' losses if someone doesn't pay up, which lets them offer more mortgages with just 5% deposits. It worked. Yet whether a mortgage is H2B or not is irrelevant to your mortgage choice.
-�Help to Buy new-build equity loan�. You put down a 5% deposit and the state gives you an interest-free loan for 20-40% depending on the scheme. Full info in�Help to Buy & Other Mortgage Schemes.
6. Every 5% bigger deposit slashes your mortgage cost.�The min deposit needed to get a mortgage is 5%. Yet rates on these are pants. Many have more saved, eg, 8% or 9%, but it makes no difference until you hit 10%.
Imagine you want a �150,000 home and have a �14,000 deposit � that's 9.3% so still within the 5% deposit band. The cheapest five-yr fix is 4.49%. Yet save just �1,000 more, and you've a 10% deposit � where the top five-yr fix is 2.99%, cutting mortgage payments by �1,400/yr � and you've borrowed less.�
So if you're close, try to push to the next boundary. Increasing from 5% to 10% is the big change, but then each further 5% cuts rates, especially at 20% and 40% (after that there's little change). Play with our�mortgage best buys comparison�to see how it works for you.
7. FREE 60-page First-Time Buyers' Booklet.�A mortgage is most people's biggest expenditure, so make sure you know what you're doing. My PDF guide takes you through step-by-step. Katie tweeted:�"Just read the First-Time Buyers' Mortgage Guide from start to end. Martin Lewis knows his stuff."
It includes credit scoring, affordability checks, how to choose the right mortgage, what to do about fees, should you get a fixed deal, using and choosing good mortgage brokers and more (though we haven't added Help to Buy ISAs in yet)...

When winter is coming, the meandering 1,631 miles of the U.S. Gulf Coast have great appeal to people of the North — my partner and I included. So, in October, we tested our new-to-us motorhome along the Gulf Coast, making Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, Alabama, our first stops. The area's sugar sand beaches, emerging food scene, vibrant festivals and affordability are a draw.
With an RV for comfort, we stretched the 1,000-mile trip from Lake County over three days, driving five hours Friday afternoon, enjoying a broken stretch on Saturday and arriving early Sunday morning. Along the way we prepared meals and boondocked at a rest area and a Walmart. (Boondocking, in RV speak, is to stay overnight in a parking lot for free.)
After 15-plus hours on the road, Pandion Ridge RV Park in Orange Beach was an oasis. At the clubhouse, Salt, the ambassador duck, approached us with loud, friendly quacks. Her partner, Pepper, a dark-colored duck, disappeared recently, and Salt was lonely. Three weeks after our visit, the resort acquired another duck, Sugar, and now both greet guests.
The year-old park offers 142 sites on 30 acres surrounded by generous grassy open space. The common area includes a pool, hot tub, pond (watch for 'gators) and plenty of room for the popular sport of dog walking (watch for 'gators, just kidding). And the free WiFi is strong. Bikes are available for those who want to explore the 23 miles of paved trails in the adjacent Gulf State Park and Hugh S. Branyon Backcountry Trail.
When RVing, we like to roll from bed to kitchenette for eggs and toast. When I fry bacon, I trigger the smoke alarm. So we save that for the grill outside.
This trip, however, a friend insisted we try The Ruby Slipper Cafe, where the "Wizard of Oz" reference is intentional. The local chain was founded in New Orleans. After Hurricane Katrina hit, a young couple started feeding people. That eventually became a restaurant and, because "There's no place like home," they named it Ruby Slipper. Various interpretations of eggs benedict are the specialty.
One of the most interesting restaurants on the strip is Salt — no relation to the duck. Powered by local celebrity chef Chris Sherrill, the experience starts with the pleasant aroma of bacon from candles made with animal fat. As one might expect of a Gulf Coast restaurant, Salt's menu is full of seafood.
What's remarkable here is Sherrill's approach with the NUISANCE Group project. Founded two years ago, the NUISANCE Group is "a team committed to raising awareness of Gulf Coast flora and fauna considered to be a Nuisance, Underutilized and/or Invasive that are also Sustainable and Available through Noble Culinary Endeavors." In other words, he wants to eat away at the problem.
That problem includes invasive species such as lionfish, wild boar, kudzu and many more. Our dinner included lionfish and kudzu. Lionfish — just 13 to 16 inches long — are a Darwinian nightmare in the Gulf of Mexico. The accidental population gobbles feeder fish that native species need to survive, and they reproduce like bacteria. They're threatening the sustainability of reef habitat, fish populations and the livelihoods of fishermen.
In the kitchen, they are a versatile, flaky-meaty, white-fleshed fish that can be cooked, says Sherrill, using almost any fish technique — sautéed, fried, baked, broiled, steamed and so on. Our dinner was fried and served with a citrusy satsuma beurre blanc and creamy risotto. If it was any example, we should eat the problem.
On another evening, we tried a vintage dining spot, De Soto's Seafood Kitchen. Here, Royal Red Shrimp, a local legend, dominated dinner. The lesser-known species is caught far offshore in 1,200- to 1,800-foot deep Gulf waters. They're red before cooking and require only a short boil. Because they taste sweet like lobster, the locals simply dip them in butter and eat. Only a handful of restaurants serve the treat.
The day after trying Royal Reds, we motored — we'd hauled our motorcycle with us — about 10 miles to the Bon Secour, Alabama. There we secured 8 pounds of Royal Reds, as well as brown and white varieties to bring north in the RV's freezer. Two purveyors — Aquila's and Billy's, less than a half mile apart on the Bon Secour Bay — have the Royal Reds delivered daily.
Royal Reds are sold, cooked and served with heads on. While the visual is tough at first, the locals say cooking with heads on enhances flavor. To eat, boil, twist off the head, peel the body, dip in butter and enjoy.
And while we could have eaten well in the RV at least one night, we relished the wind in our hair on the ride from Gulf Shores to the Florida border and iconic Flora-Bama Yacht Club complex. Best known for its casual Lounge, the kitchen steps it up at the waterfront club. The venue is rustic, the food anything but.
When not eating, sunshine and comfortable temperatures of the ocean water beckoned us. For entertainment, Janel Hawkins of Sandcastle University shared her talent. A self-taught artist, the 23-year-old has studied under masters and has sculpted the NCAA volleyball logo for national television. Today, she teaches more than 300 classes per year.
At our beachfront meeting spot, Hawkins set up four water-filled 5-gallon buckets, two child-size spades, several carving tools, an aerosol can of WD-40 and a plastic form made from a bottomless bucket. A 3-foot-wide pyramid of dry, loose sand awaited construction.
The sand pyramid was essential. While some people dig down to place a castle, Hawkins builds up a foundation. She douses the pyramid with a half bucket of water, then uses her feet to mix and tamp the wet sand. With a hard, flat platform in place, building begins.
Hawkins sprays WD-40 inside the form — the bottomless bucket — to ease release. Then she centers the form on the hard sand foundation. She fills the bucket halfway with sand, then mixes in water. Instead of patting down the sand, she lets gravity pull water through so grains settle tightly together. She repeats the process to fill the form. Then she gives it a gentle twist while lifting and reveals a sand tower ready for sculpting.
Tools include large and small spatulas, drinking straw, pastry brush and measuring spoon. These are used to sculpt "teeth" on the turret, carve balcony and windows and define bricks and staircases. Rough edges are softened with a pastry brush or blown away with the straw.
Interested? Hawkins also teaches an advanced two-hour class that includes multiple structures and additional details.
The Gulf region is known for its watery sunsets, and those at Gulf Shores and Orange Beach are no different. Sail Wild Hearts provides appetizers on a 53-foot catamaran sailboat for a waterfront-seat viewing. Adventurous passengers sit on the heavy-duty bow netting to enjoy the spray during a sometimes bouncy ride. Jellyfish are sighted from the sides and dolphins sometimes rise to the occasion.
So many more activities are possible. In Pensacola, the National Naval Aviation Museum is an easy hour drive. On most Tuesday and Wednesday mornings from March to November, the U.S. Navy Blue Angels—five F/A-18 Hornets that are air-show regulars — practice maneuvers there. Speed and synchronized flight typically begin at 11:30 a.m. (Central Time) and last about 55 minutes. Admission is free. Wild Heart Sail also offers an all-day cruise to the event.
Overall, we found the Alabama coast lower-cost than most beachfront destinations and the people friendly. We hope to return.
Travelers' checks
The sugar sand beaches of Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, Alabama, are an appealing alternative to the Florida coast. Fly into Pensacola International Airport (about 45 minutes away) or drive about 1,000 miles from the North Coast to the Gulf Coast.

Ewing >> Nikki Schott knew the challenge Stockton brought to Packer Hall, and The College of New Jersey senior was ready to express her opinion, on the court.
Schott was perfect from the floor and did a solid job defensively in the middle.
TCNJ spotted the Ospreys the first two points and then it was all Lions as they cruised to a 65-47 win over Stockton in a New Jersey Athletic Conference game on the refurbished Packer Hall floor on Wednesday night.
"This was an extremely important game," said Schott. "We know we have to get these league games early. We played with a lot of heart and effort and we knew this would be a big challenge."
Schott's effort from the floor was a perfect 7-fort-7 including one from beyond the arc for 15 points.
TCNJ (4-1, 2-0 NJAC) after giving up the first two points of the game went on a 19-4 run to take a 19-6 lead with 2:13 left in the first quarter. The lead grew to 33-19 at the half and Stockton was unable to mount any real challenge after that.
The Ospreys fall to 4-2 and 0-2 in the conference.
"This was great," said Chessie Jackson, the Lions first-year coach. "This was a good representation of the things we have been working on in practice. I'm proud of the focus they showed."
The focus was defense and TCNJ kept frustrating the Ospreys.
The defense forced Stockton into a chilly 18-for-60 shooting performance and it wasn't until the final period that scored from anything beyond 10-feet.
"Our main focus was the defense," said TCNJ's Jen Byrne. "We knew it was going to be a game of runs and we just wanted to stay focused. We stayed together as a team, too.
TCNJ was led by Byrne with 15 points and nine rebounds, Schott added 13, Samantha Famulare came off the bench to tally 12 points, Shannon Devitt, the NJAC Rookie of the Week, had nine points and nine rebounds.
A number that stands out in the stat sheet belongs to Charlotte Schum. Schum had a career high 10 assists and grabbed nine rebounds.
Sasha Williams led the Ospreys with 16 points.
"Charlotte is so solid," said Jackson, of Schum. "She takes a lot of pride in her game and in doing the right thing. She is really calm out there and I'm proud of her effort."
The TCNJ women were selected sixth in the NJAC preseason poll and in the early going they might have a few questioning that selection.
"I think we've been a little underestimated," said Jackson. "I think this group has a lot of heart and we have the right pieces in place. We are playing together and we are playing for each other and we have good senior leadership and some really good rookies."
TCNJ 95, Stockton 84
The Lions used a 14-5 run midway through the second half to grab a 78-67 lead with 9:25 left in the game and the defense kept Stockton from threatening the rest of the way.
It was a fast paced first half as the two battled to a 48-48 tie.
It was expected the second half would be much of the same but TCNJ (4-1, 2-0 NJAC) amped up the pressure on the Ospreys (4-3, 1-1 NJAC).
Eric Murdock Jr. and Niall Carpenter each had 23 for the Lions.
WW-P South's Zavon Johnson had 18 points at the half for Stockton, but was limited to just six in the second half.

How Sweet… Saudi King Gives Pontiff a Sword
Slice and Dice…
The perfect gift for every Christian religious leader on your list.
Do you suppose the Holy Father got a bit nervous after he opened the box?
Considering the Kingdom just whacked off three heads earlier this month you couldn't blame Benedict XVI if he was a bit skittish.

The UL-Lafayette football program has yet another feather to add to its cap thanks to its string of success under coach Mark Hudspeth.
With a little more than three weeks remaining until the Ragin' Cajuns kick off against Southern at Cajun Field, the university has announced that it has already eclipsed last year's record mark of season ticket sales, with 12,276 currently sold. Last year's record was set at 11,883.
"With the excitement building off the past three years, our fans have come out in full force," said UL-Lafayette ticket manager Matt Casbon in a news release. "Those fans that have been here a long time have really continued their support, and our hat goes off to them for increasing their season ticket purchases."
Recent renovations have increased Cajun Field's seating capacity by roughly 6,000 with the addition of a lower bowl in the south endzone where a grass berm used to be. The school also added more restrooms and concessions to accommodate patrons in the additional seating area.
To go along with the renovations, the school band, The Pride of Acadiana, moved from its usual location near midfield to the southeast corner of the stadium, clearing room for season ticket packages near midfield. Those packages, in sections P and Q, are going for $150. Season ticket packages start as low as $110.
The boost can be attributed to the Cajuns on-field success, where they've enjoyed three straight nine-win seasons and New Orleans Bowl championships under Hudspeth. For the first time in his tenure, the Cajuns will also have a six-game home schedule.
Hudspeth appreciates the record, something he figured would be a by-product of the program's success, but he doesn't want it to stop now.
"My challenge to our fans is that we can still do so much more," Hudspeth said. "I really feel that we will do that before the first game, and I encourage our fans who haven't bought season tickets to get them now and join in the excitement of great college football at Cajun Field."

Crunching Fijian tackle puts immediate halt to Brumbies attack at Brisbane 10s
The Brisbane 10s kicked off in Australia on Friday with teams from around the globe having a go at this enjoyable format, finding the balance between fifteens and 7s rugby. There was a huge amount of skill and physicality on show, as seen here between Fiji and the Brumbies.
While the 7s World Series features specialists of the format, the Brisbane 10s is a little different in that multiple top fifteens players take part, including some big names from years gone by.
Carlos Spencer and Andrew Walker, both now in their forties, put in good showings while the likes of Conrad Smith and Steffon Armitage represented Section Paloise (PAU) from France, and Digby Ioane and Berrick Barnes turned out for the Panasonic Wild Knights from Japan.
How good is it seeing the likes of 44-year-old Andrew Walker holding his own in the @BrisbaneTens with some top pro players and guys literally half his age. Carlos Spencer too ????— Rugbydump.com (@Rugbydump) February 9, 2018
More current and up and coming stars are also there, such as Taniela Tupou, Julian Savea and Tim Nanai Williams. It adds another dimension to the event, and makes for great viewing.
One veteran of the game who was playing for the Brumbies was prop Ben Alexander, who as you can see here, definitely didn't do his teammate Robbie Abel any favours just before halftime in their clash with Fiji.
The hospital pass was well read by Seru Vularika, who flew in and crunched hooker Abel, leaving him rolling on the turf wondering why he signed up for this in the first place.
Day Two kicks off tomorrow, with the Wild Knights against the Queensland Reds.

Revenue Information Bulletin 10-010: Natural Gas Severance Tax Rate Effective July 1, 2010
The Louisiana Department of Revenue has issued Revenue Information Bulletin (RIB) No. 10-010 concerning the severance tax rate on natural gas to be paid during the period July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011. The tax rate is calculated in accordance with La. R.S. 47:633(9)(d)(i).
Revenue Information Bulletin No. 10-010
May 4, 2010
Severance Tax
The natural gas severance tax rate effective July 1, 2010, through June 30, 2011, has been set at 16.4 cents per thousand cubic feet (MCF) measured at a base pressure of 15.025 pounds per square inch absolute and at the temperature base of 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
This tax rate is set each year by multiplying the natural gas severance tax base rate of 7 cents per MCF by the "gas base rate adjustment" determined by the Secretary of the Department of Natural Resources in accordance with R.S. 47:633(9)(d)(i). The "gas base rate adjustment" is a fraction, of which the numerator is the average of the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) Henry Hub settled price on the last trading day for the month, as reported in the Wall Street Journal for the previous 12-month period ending on March 31, and the denominator is the average of the monthly average spot market prices of gas fuels delivered into the pipelines in Louisiana as reported by the Natural Gas Clearing House for the 12-month period ending March 31, 1990 (1.7446 $/MMBTU).
Based on this computation, the Secretary of the Department of Natural Resources has determined the natural gas severance "gas base rate adjustment" for April 1, 2009, through March 31, 2010, to be 234.39 percent. Applying this gas base rate adjustment to the base tax rate of 7 cents per MCF produces a tax rate of 16.4 cents per MCF effective July 1, 2010, through June 30, 2011. The reduced natural gas severance tax rates provided for in R.S. 47:633(9)(b) and (c) remain the same.
Revised reporting forms will be distributed as soon as they are available. Questions concerning the natural gas severance tax rate should be directed to the Department of Revenue at 225-219-7462.

Finding God's Favor
Scripture Reading: 1 Chronicles 9:1-10:14 / Romans 14:1-18 / Proverbs 18:17-19:2
God is the master designer of relationships. He made Adam and then from Adam's side created Eve, his helpmeet. God created them husband and wife, bringing them into the deepest and most intimate form of human relationship. God made Eve and brought her to Adam to complete him and bring love and joy in his life.
My wife and I celebrated our 33rd wedding anniversary a few days ago. She publicly expressed her joy and thankfulness for the past 33 years. I responded with a verse that is found in our Bible reading for today, "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord." (Proverbs 18:22)
I have been so blessed to be able to experience the unfolding of God's purpose for my life these past 33 years. Some do not share my opinion, scoffing at God's creativity and questioning His wisdom because of their past personal relational failures. Instead of finding completeness they experience division. Love and joy that was once powerfully present, dissipates and becomes hopelessly elusive. Statistics show half of the marriages end in divorce…either God got it wrong or man has it all wrong.
We certainly do not cast stones at those whose marriages have ended in divorce. The enemy fought against the union of husband and wife in the Garden of Eden and still attacks marriage today. The Bible exposes the devil's tactics and gives us insight to make marriage lasting and fulfilling. It simply comes down to cherish/love and submit/support. "Husbands love your wives just as Christ loved the church… wives submit to your husbands, as to The Lord." (Ephesians 5:23,25)
Husbands, cherish the wife that God has given you…God designed her to fulfill and bring His favor in your life. It is so important that we line up with His purpose and live in the light of His favor! Are there struggles and mistakes that require commitment and forgiveness? Yes!
For new brides, I have often told them that they could be their husband's greatest support or biggest detriment. Ladies, God has designed you to complete your husband's life! The challenge for every new husband is to love and lead his wife in the light of Christ's example. God did not get it wrong…we have a difficult time getting it right!

Pastor James Clark has pastored Calvary Assembly since 1985. He is blessed with his wife Yvonne, six children, two son-in-laws, a beautiful granddaughter and hopefully many more grandchildren to follow!

Thanks Liz! I hope so too! I am so excited to get started :) I will be selling my furniture in my booth at Kane County Flea Market. I will also list pieces on here and in my Etsy shop.Delete
Love that you kept the natural wood on top it came out perfect!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks Comeca. My inspiration is Miss Mustard Seed. I LOVe her pieces :)Delete
Hi Jen, I found your lovely blog through Ivy and Elephants. I can relate to being a new blogger. I first thought about the time commitment and then, will anyone want to follow me!

so cute! love the minty green and the chippy finish!ReplyDelete
Wow I love how this turned out! And the mint is the perfect color. Very cute!ReplyDelete
very nice piece...love the colour!ReplyDelete
Bec x
So cute! I love that you left the top with natural wood!ReplyDelete
Beautiful! I love the green, so prettyReplyDelete
Beautiful! Did you sand the bottom part of the rest that you painted over?ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi There! I only the sanded the bottom after I painted with chalk paint. That is the beauty of this paint. You need to waste no time sanding or priming the wood before painting. Sanding after gives it the aged look.Delete
Thanks for visiting!
I'm curious,Jen. Do homemade chalk paint and milk paint have a similer look when applied? Thought you might know. This is so pretty.I love your color choice. Going to find some valspar tomorrow!ReplyDeleteReplies
Hi Karen! I've not tried milk paint YET! I haven't got around to ordering any but hsve been drooling over all the pieces I've seen. From what I csn tell the two can have a similar look but the milk paint is very chippy and distresses differently. Chalk paint you can distress but really don't have to. I also think the Annie Sloan chalk paint is much easier to use than homemade. You have to play with the homemade a little. Miss Mustard Seed is awesome with chalk paint and just came out with a milk paint line. She has great tutorials!Delete
All I can say is that it is amazing, love the color, I am going to PIN it!! Please come on over to visit my brand new blog, oh and I am your newest follower!ReplyDelete
Jan @ The Pink Geranium!
This is so well done. Great job! The choice of color was perfect. Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete
Blessings from Oklahoma City,

I'm kind of in love with this little piece! I the color is perfect, espcially against the dark stain. I really love what you did with this!ReplyDelete
This is incredibly gorgeous! Now I really want a large workspace so I can do this to our dining room table. Only with white on the bottom. Plus, I have Plaster of Paris so I'm pretty much ready to go!ReplyDelete

Laser firm M Squared secures funding boost
A laser manufacturer has secured £3.85m of capital funding in a boost to its research and development programme.
Glasgow-based M Squared Lasers was awarded the cash by the Business Growth Fund (BGF).
The firm, which designs and manufactures lasers and photonic optical instruments, said the cash would help it develop its technology.
BGF is an independent fund , backed by five of the UK's main banking groups, to help Britain's smaller businesses.
M Squared's laser-based systems can remotely detect gas leaks and perform environmental monitoring - for example, by identifying the extent and location of a methane leak in the oil and gas industry.
Other remote sensing applications include the detection of explosives, chemicals or pollutants.
'Growth potential'
M Squared co-founder and chief executive Graeme Malcolm said: "We are seeing considerable expansion in the potential applications for lasers, not least in the defence and medical industries where detection capability is critically important.
"For us, this offers real growth potential.
"BGF's investment will allow us to further develop our laser technology and fund our sales and marketing efforts."
He added: "In particular, we are looking at new market opportunities in remote sensing, and will specifically focus on developing our Firefly laser product, which has a clear application for the security and defence, oil and gas and food and drink industries."
With an office in San Jose, California, M Squared sells lasers to and collaborates with a range of blue chip partners and research institutions across Europe, North America and Asia, including Thales, Philips, Osram and Stanford University.
In return for the capital injection, BGF will take a minority stake in the business and join the existing board.
This is BGF's second investment in Scotland this year following its backing of Stats, an Aberdeen-based oilfield service sector business, in March.

"Windows Explorer Not Working" message on Start-up,causes blank screen
I recently received an old laptop that was factory restored from a relative, and started using to play games. Recently, however, I began to receive the message "windows explorer is not working" on startup, and about half the times it would go away and I would be able to use the computer (if i hit cancel a lot of times), and half the times it would just cause the interface to disappear, leaving only the background, and I would have to restart. The error would not pop up when I clicked on a folder, which is different from the problem that others have, and seems to only appear upon startup and when trying to access Event Viewer (however I managed to open it up through "event logs").
So far, I have tried:
-System Restore (dates don't reach far back enough, oddly)
-Uninstalling programs that may cause this (7-zip, etc.)
-Running a anti-virus scan (Malwarebytes Pro)
-Startup Repair
-Sfc /scannow (in both normal and safe modes)
-Memory Diagnostic Tool (RAM scanner)
-Updating Drivers
-Updating Windows
And I think that's it so far. Here is the error I found in the Event Viewer:
Faulting application name: Explorer.EXE, version: 6.1.7601.17567, time stamp: 0x4d672ee4
Faulting module name: MSVCR100.dll, version: 10.0.30319.460, time stamp: 0x4db1316a
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x000000000003c135
Faulting process id: 0x66c
Faulting application start time: 0x01cf5c25e937e442
Faulting application path: C:\Windows\Explorer.EXE
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\MSVCR100.dll
Report Id: 31dd46e6-c819-11e3-82c6-8169f8e58409
I'm not really good at understanding what this means, but I'm assuming theres a problem with a file inside system32, and I don't want to touch the folder without some help and/or guidance. Thank you!

When I right-click the Start button and select "Open Windows Explorer", nothing happens. Using the Windows Explorer link in the Start Menu or anywhere else works fine... Where are the settings for that "Open Windows Explorer" option stored? Has anyone seen this problem?
