Grooming: Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve10:46:00 AM
The men's care is so important nowadays, like what is wear with style and elegance. Taking care of ourselves is fundamental for everything is on a par of how we look daily. Apart of take care of our soul (because a person that don't feel well with itself, for more than it wears pretty clothes, never will feel comfortable with itself) our nutrition, because a healthy body is one of the bases to elongate our life and also for we feel with vitality and why not look good. But we must also take in account our outward care. Daily, we receive a lot of dust, toxic materials flying in the air, all kind of smoke, the sun, lack of sleep, dehydration, all these are factors that make that our skin suffers and make us look tired and even with older than we have. It's delicious when you can reach and age without looking of the age that you have actually or that we walk in the street with a fresh, light and healthy face. The man of today is conscious of not just the face care and body but also of his hair, nails and breath and for that, this segment of the blog is dedicated to our grooming because without it, nothing of the beauty things that we have in the closet will not look so well. Today I want to talk with you about a product that long time ago I had the privilege of test when the Kiehl's team gave it to me for a review and a while ago this product has become the king of my hands...already you will know why...
A long time ago I was searching for a hand cream that it was effective, if there is something where the age is noticeable fast is in the hands and give it the necessary care is fundamental for keep them beautiful all the time. If think about it, the hands are our number one instrument of use of all our body, they are submitted to abrasives, strong soaps, liquids or greases depending of what we are doing. They are in view of everyone and we have show them when we salute to someone, when we shook hands with people and expose us frequently. Many of the men make hard work and this creates them a hard layer in the palm of their hands, making them thicker, like the body adapts to the thing that we submitting to it, this process of thickening is so natural, but of in certain way, nothing aesthetic. This thickening of the epidermis in the palm of the hand could in some cases, transformed into callosity and dead skin that are superposed layer by layer giving it and sad and ugly appearance. The fact that we are making hard work, is not and excuse to care of our hands, and it's there where this cream is your solution.
The first I felt to use this cream for the first time, is a fresh and light sensation, many of the hand creams usually are so heavy and this cream in particular with a few drop that you put on your hands is more than enough to cover both hands.
The cream has a "grove-like" effect what it means that it allows to skin draw, absorb and keep the moisture of your hands creating a layer that will last the time in that the cream keeps in your skin, what is a lot of time.
Its formulation consists in a blend of botanical oils (like the most of Kiehl's products= and waxes derived from Olive oil that allows to calm, hydrate and repair the skin of your hands. And also is wonderful because for the time that I began to use the cream, I had a minor burn in my left hand, with the pass of the weeks, the spot of the burn was reducing in a 20% and disappearing in subsequent months, what is not just an advantage for the sever dryness of the skin originated for the hard work but of minor burns because it helps to reconstruct the layer of the skin.
Its aroma is not irritating, it has a light aroma between mint and nuts that is very rich, for when you freshly come out of the bath and you begin to get dressed, give it a fresh sensation. In a few time begins to see the difference, the skin looks shiner, more compact and finest. Its prolonged use will cause that you keep your hands in a great condition and with a young appearance despite of the age.
Also is the favorite of loyal Kiehl's clients and I can give faith of that is a product that should be a MUST HAVE in the table of your products of men's care. I must to replace it, because already is about to end, because is a product that makes wonders with your hands , the honest truth.
If you can obtain this product in your favorite Kiehl's or here

Mechanistic insights on molecular and cellular mechanisms whereby KSHV induces Kaposi?s sarcoma (KS) are key for our understanding of KS tumors and for the development of new therapies. We have previously developed an animal model for KSHV induced KS using murine bone marrow cells transfected with a KSHVBac36. We found that although these cells lacked attributes of transformed cells in vitro, they were able to cause KS-like tumors in vivo. In vivo tumorigenesis correlated with upregulation of both KSHV lytic genes and host angiogenesis suggesting that that cues provided from the microenvironment played a major role in regulating viral and host gene expression related with KSHV-induced tumorigenesis. Our goal thus, was to identify these molecular cues regulating pathogenic gene expression in KSHV infected cells in vivo. An important difference between cells kept in vitro versus in vivo is the lack of environmental extracellular matrix (ECM) signals. Therefore the mECK36 cells were cultured in vitro in matrigel, a basement membrane preparation rich in ECM proteins and its individual components, to discern the effect of host signaling by the ECM on KSHV infected cells. Investigation of gene expression through Real Time RT-PCR identified several viral and host genes associated with tumorigenesis such as KSHV vGPCR and angiogenesis associated VEGF and EGF- receptors were upregulated in response to this environment. Further analysis of the molecular activity of the cell indicated the change in transcription was due to the activation of integrin signaling, as assessed by phosphorylation of the Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) protein. Our results show that integrin signaling occurring in vivo through interaction with ECM serves to enhance the pathogenic viral and host gene expression of KSHV infected cells and that EGFR upregulation can be correlated with these conditions. These results points to the integrin signaling pathway or the EGF-Receptor as promising targets for therapy and prevention of KS tumors.

The Jew Who Loved Christmas and Bubbe's Chopped Liver and Onions
I am a Jew. I also love Christmas. It's silly right? Because everybody knows that Jews don't celebrate Christmas, they celebrate Hanukkah. But let me explain. When I was 16 I converted to Judaism. The terms, "Jew-By-Choice" and "Convert" were tossed around as labels to describe me. Now if you know me, you know that I hate labels. So despite having taken a year-long course in Jewish history and ethics, and then taking a written examination to demonstrate my knowledge… I was still viewed as being different. I was washed anew in the mikvah and held the Torah in my arms as I pledged to live a Jewish life. Yet still, I felt different from all of the other Jewish teens. For the longest time I couldn't figure out what it was that bothered me so much.
Was it the sideways glances that I'd receive at the oneg gatherings in temple? People would look at me with my light complexion and curly, blonde/brown hair and automatically assume I wasn't Jewish. Or maybe it was my last name, which definitely wasn't Jewish! For years I struggled against trying to assume my identity and religion. Who am I? What do I believe? What is my purpose? Why do others judge me? Finally I reached a place of peace. I understood that it's okay to question who we are, and what we believe in. It's okay to wear, say, or do whatever you want as long as it doesn't harm others. And that is when I admitted it to myself: I love Christmas.
Before my parents divorced and I lived in a new Jewish world, I lived with my mother. She put Martha Stewart to shame when it came to Christmas. The whole house turned into a winter wonderland right after Thanksgiving ended. I have such fond memories of roasted meats, twinkling lights, glittering ornaments, merry carols, and the scent of cinnamon and gingerbread. Her love of the holidays became rooted into my DNA and thus, I love everything about Christmas! Having chosen a faith that doesn't believe in or celebrate Christmas was hard. For a while I felt like I was missing a part of myself. I'd see the world blanket itself in "Ho ho ho" 's and "deck the halls" and I was left with Chinese takeout and gelt. But, in learning to accept who I am, I began to embrace all of me.
I can celebrate shabbos and put up a tree. I can go to temple and listen to Buddhist meditations. I can eat brisket, gefilte fish, speak Yiddish, and go caroling to my heart's content. I can be Jewish and celebrate Christmas! And maybe…. just maybe… if we judged ourselves (and others) a little less, and accepted things a little bit more… maybe then we could have peace on Earth. Enjoy this traditional Jewish recipe everyone and have a beautiful day! ❤

What constitutes a miss step in the writing world? How similar can one book by an author be to another book by a different author before someone yells foul? What about plot line and character descriptions? Can you compare your own writing to a published author of your genre and find similarities between your book and theirs? How much? I'm not talking about how one book in the author's repertoire compares to another of the same author. They say we have a limited number of characters at our disposal and after that, they are just variances, but how much do your characters resemble characters from another author? Does it matter if the public is willing to buy both books? What about your own conscious?
As I stated in my last blog, I am an avid reader of series. I like a book that goes on to follow the main character, or even take a minor character from one book and focus on them for the next. So it is inevitable that authors who write series, have characters or even plot lines that start to sound similar. I've read all twenty-seven plus novels in a series from one author and by the twenty-first, I could literally tell you exactly how the author would describe each character and on what page. Some authors get stuck in a groove or simply use a formula that works. If it sells?
Today however, I picked up a book that was so similar to different book by a different author that I had to pause. Now when I say similar, I mean, this book was one-step away from plagiarism in my opinion. (Maybe overstated, but jeez.) One of my favorite authors has a long running series, of which I have read all of the books, follow avidly. I even get the newsletter. That said I'm pretty familiar with the characters, plot and so forth. This new book…the entire time I'm listening to it (okay, it's a book-on-tape and I'm not actually reading it) all I can think of is how similar it is to the other author's series. Curious person that I am, I did some research and found that this new author has over twenty-five books published and this new series, was started only a few years ago. My favorite author has been writing the series I'm speaking of, for a considerably longer number of years.
Let me just compare some points. The MC is females. They do not have a current love interest because their recent love interest was a cheating jerk. Both MC's have brown curly hair that hits just above their shoulders. The MC lives in an apartment alone only blocks from her very ethnic parents. Both mothers are busy bodies who call their daughter's constantly. In one there is a meddlesome grandmother who frequently steels the scene, in the other, it's a meddling grandfather. There is a lot of eating of ethnic foods. Both are having bad luck with jobs and now work for a relative. In one a slime ball cousin, in the other a slime ball uncle. The jobs are related to police work and both of these MCs have people from HS who are cops who always seem to come upon them in compromising situations. IE; a dead body is found and the MC is there when the police arrive, their HS friends. Both books have a distinctive receptionist who runs the "office." As for vehicles, both MC's drive or have access to Buicks, and not just Buicks, but large older Buicks that guzzle gas. Both series of books are done in a humorous light, again, another similarity. Both are looking for things, items, people, trying to solve a mystery, missing person, dog, item… you get the idea.
I'm about half way through the book now and am still bothered by the similarities; however, I really enjoyed the other series and as this new one is so similar, it's (okay I'll say it) hard to put down. Is this the answer to my question?
By no means is this the only instance that I have found such similarities. I read fantasy books and have found a number of series that are very similar to one another, yes, for the most part, I've read both series. I can admit that my fantasy series resembles, in a small way, another series that is very popular. I'd like to think mine is different enough that no one reading it sits there the whole time scratching their head wondering if I've simply copied another author. I like to think that my thriller romance has similarities to another one of my favorite authors, is that arrogant on my part. I'm pretty sure no one would pick up both books and say she had just read this book before writing her own, but I'd like to think they have the same feel. How close can we make our stories to those already published and still gain a new audience? And at what point are we just out of line?
It's been said that there are only so many stories out there and our job as authors is to find a new way to tell the same story. Often when I read about query letters, I'm told to compare my work with another author in my genre. So does this mean we are expected to write in a similar vein as those authors? Do we have a responsibility to our readers to be our own storyteller and is it reasonable to think we can? Where is that invisible line that should never be crossed? Your thoughts.
An added thought now that I've completed the entire novel. Not only does the novel mimic another author's novel, but it pays homage to it by mentioning both the series and the author. And to top it off…both characters now have dogs they didn't want. My final thought, I put in a request for the next book in the new series.

Conroe, Texas – It seemed simple enough. Earn a little money by watching small children in the neighborhood – parents are always looking for a good babysitter. She wasn't old enough to drive but she could walk to the homes or the parents could pick her up. And she loved playing with little children.
Babysitting was not quite what she expected. With the parents gone, she was in charge and she felt the full weight of responsibility on her shoulders. It wasn't about playing with the kids anymore. It was about making sure they were safe and stayed on their routine. What she really needed was a class on how to be a safe babysitter to build her confidence in taking care of the children and being prepared to handle an emergency if it came up.
Montgomery County Hospital District has the answer! It's seven and one-half hour SafeSitter Class covers a wide range of babysitting experiences for youth in sixth through eighth grades. SafeSitter Classes will be offered on the Saturdays of July 8, July 29, August 12 and August 26th from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm at 1400 South Look 336 West in Conroe. Students should bring a sack lunch.
Held at the offices of Montgomery County Hospital District, SafeSitter classes can be the difference in saving a life. The one-day SafeSitter course is designed to prepare students in grades 6 through 8 to be safe when they are home alone, watching younger siblings or babysitting. The instructor-led class is filled with fun games and role-playing exercises. Students even get to use manikins to practice rescue skills like choking rescue and CPR. Class fee is $60, which includes American Heart Association Heartsaver CPR/AED certification.
To register your child for the one-day SafeSitter Class, call Ashton Herring, First Responder and Outreach Coordinator at 936.3523.1146, email her at firstname.lastname@example.com or register on our website www.mchd-tx.org/safe-sitter/

What is a Crane Operator?
Also known as: Certified Crane Operator.
Table of Contents
A crane operator is someone who uses a crane to transport various objects. There are many different types, makes, models and sizes of cranes, such as mobile cranes, tower cranes, boom trucks and self-erect tower cranes. Mobile cranes are used to do work a boom truck can't do – higher lifts, heavier loads, and lifts that need a longer reach.
What does a Crane Operator do?
Crane operators typically do the following:
- Control equipment with levers, wheels, or foot pedals
- Move material according to a plan or schedule they receive from their superiors
- Set up and inspect material moving equipment
- Make minor repairs to their equipment
- Record material they have moved and where they moved it from and to
In warehouse environments, most crane operators use forklifts and conveyor belts. Automated sensors and tags are increasingly used to keep track of merchandise, allowing operators to work faster. In warehouses, operators usually work closely with hand material movers.
Many crane operators work for underground and surface mining companies. They help to dig or expose the mine, remove the earth and rock, and extract the ore and other mined materials. In construction, crane operators remove earth to clear space for buildings. Some work on a building site for the entire length of the construction project. For example, operators often help to construct high-rise buildings by transporting materials to workers far above ground level.

What is the workplace of a Crane Operator like?
Crane operators work in a variety of industries, such as construction, pulp mills and refineries, mining, metal manufacturing, and warehousing and storage.
Some of the older cranes can be very noisy and using ear protection is essential. The crane operator often stays in the crane for most of the day, and eats lunch and takes breaks in the cab. They spend all day in constant communication with other people, and operate using hand signals from the crew or by using radios.
Crane operators can move up and become supervisors or foremen and occasionally people buy their own equipment and go into business for themselves as independent owner-operators.

Are you planning on getting 'ligg either this weekend or in honor of our fine nation's Independence Day? If so, now is the time to plan for either a designate driver or alternative means of transportation to avoid the drunk tank.
This week's alternatives to drunk driving are taxi apps for your smartphone. Perhaps your designated driver deigned to down a few drafts. Maybe you slapped him or her in a drunken rage and they left you behind. Either way, you need to get home.

We recently went on a trip to Burma, and it was amazing. The country has only recently starting to open up and as a result it's a really unique place. It was been my hardest working vacation yet and I hope you'll agree the results are worth it.
In Mandalay, the dusty second city of Burma, my favorite thing to shoot by a long shot were the markets. They're nestled in back alleys, and the locals were very friendly and amused to see us there. Smiling and waving at anyone always got a great reaction. They were happy to talk, as much as it was possible, and made great photographic subjects.
We also visited some of the very pretty outlying areas, but they were generally less interesting to me than the city itself. One exception was the U Bein Bridge. The classic shots of it are with the sun setting behind it. We were there on a hazy morning instead, and those are some of my favorite shots.
The archeological city of Bagan is an amazing place that's been photographed to death. My shots from the temples at sunrise and sunset are nice, but I feel better ones have been done. It's a lot like shooting other monuments in that way. Still, I have many shots I'm proud of in and around the temples. While it's more touristy, the locals were still very friendly and we had a lot of great times.
Burma is nothing like any place I've ever been. It's safe and relatively easy to travel in. I'd recommend it to everyone.

This Fresh Peach Slab Pie Recipe is the best of both worlds, it's like a flaky crust crumble, deep dish peach pie dessert made in a 9" x 13" baking dish.
If you LOVE the idea of a peach pie with a streusel type crumble topping - this is the recipe for you!
This recipe will work very well with nectarines instead of, or in combination with peaches.
You will love how easy it is to make this slab pie! You can make it all at once - serves 12 to 16 - without having to roll out the pastry for two separate traditional pies.
And ... it's so easy to transport to a picnic or event in a sturdy baking dish!
Note - If desired, you can make the pie dough and crumble topping a few days before and store them in the fridge until you are ready to make the slab pie.
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour, more as needed
3/4 tsp. salt
1 1/4 cups cold butter, cut into 1/2" pieces
4 - 6 tbsp. ice water, as needed
15 - 18 fresh, ripe peaches, pitted, peeled, and cut into about 1" chunks
1 1/4 cups brown sugar, packed
1/3 cup instant tapioca
3 tbsp. lemon juice (bottled is fine)
1 tsp. nutmeg, optional (I left this out)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground ginger, optional (I left this out)
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup butter, cubed
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and the salt.
Add the butter and, using a pastry cutter, mix until the mixture forms small pieces.
Add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, and mix until the mixture is just moist enough to hold together.
Form the dough into one ball, and flatten to a disc shape.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
Roll out the dough using a lightly floured rolling pin, to a rectangle about 11" x 15". If dough is "sticky", dust with additional flour.
Fold the dough in half and transfer it to (no need to grease the dish), 9" x 13" baking dish.
Carefully press the dough into the bottom of the pan, and up the edges to make it even with the top of the baking dish.
Return the crust to the fridge while you prepare the filling and topping.
In a large bowl, add together the peaches, brown sugar, tapioca, lemon juice, nutmeg (optional), vanilla and the salt, toss, and allow to stand for about 25 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger (optional), and the salt.
Add the cubed pieces of butter, and mix in using your fingertips until the mixture is evenly moist, and has formed large clumps.
Spoon the filling into the crust in the baking pan, and top with the crumble. Place the baking pan on a baking sheet (cookie baking sheet).
Bake for 15 minutes at 425° F on the lowest rack of the oven.
Then, reduce the oven temperature to 375° F and move the slab pie (and the baking sheet) to the center rack in the oven. Continue to bake for about 1 hour, or until the pie is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow to cool before dividing into portions.
Serve warm or cold, plain, or with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream! So Deliciously Delicious!

Mutant Hunting Sentinels Previewed For Marvel Dice Masters!
September 16, 2014 by brennon
WizKids have previewed some more cards for the upcoming Uncanny X-Men addition to Marvel Dice Masters and the latest pairing is both the Sentinel and Scarlet Witch!
Sentinel is essentially the proper mutant hunting robot you would have wanted them to be. The global ability pulling in X-Men to get beaten up by its rather deadly amount of attack and defence is nasty enough but the rare version of it that gets +1A and +1D for each X-Men character means those themed decks based around the new release are going to have a painful enemy to face.
Scarlet Witch takes on more of a support role for whatever deck she's included in. The ability to re-roll dice is huge and that super rare card will be going for quite a lot I reckon. She even has a very low field cost (top left). Her basic card is more focused around damage and would supplement a larger villain force that includes the likes of Magneto and Sentinel above.
Not a bad pair of villains!

It's always a dilemma which block to pick for the challenge. I've done some fun ones. The first was coffee mugs, back in 2012. Still not a finished quilt.
|Scrappy Coffee Cups: Block patterns from Karen F. Srebro and Janet McCarroll
publised in Block Magic and Block Magic Too by Nancy Johnson-Srebro
The next year it was the Butterfly blocks. Those aren't a finished quilt either.
|Scrappy Butterflies: Block is available in EQ 7 Block Library
For 2014 it was the Inverted Star blocks. Those are still in their box waiting to be set together.
| Inverted Star by Jessica Boschem of Common Threads
available from Craftsy as a free download
Two RSC projects were started in 2015. The first was the Twinkle Star blocks. Not finished either.
|Twinkle Stars Tutorial by Andrea Feldbush of Soscrappy
The second RSC quilt of 2015 was Angela's sampler quilt. Flame Test did get finished.
|Flame Test (2014 Rainbow Scrap Challenge Sampler)
Pattern by Angela Feldbush of Soscrappy
And was promptly confiscated by Drama Teen. She uses it regularly as a cuddle quilt in her room. It's going to college with her.
Last year was probably the most challenging block I've ever tried, the Vintage Dresses. Which as I just finished the last block, isn't a finished quilt either.
|Vintage Dresses by Charise Randell
There's a definite trend with my RSC blocks, they don't seem to be ending up in finished quilts. One reason is that I've had a hard time deciding on a setting once the blocks are done. There is a plan for Vintage Dresses, so I'm hopeful that quilt will get put together this year.
Considering my poor track record with finishing my RSC projects, I decided to try something new for 2017. I used Electric Quilt to draft the finished quilt so I can assemble the quilt as the blocks are finished. I'm not going to show the mock up of the quilt, but here are this year's blocks.
The paper pieced Fan blocks are going to use the cool colors, purple, green, teal and blue. I didn't get my background fabric washed and pressed until yesterday so I didn't get very far with my first block, but it is started.
There will be four 7.5" fan blocks and four 3.5" fan blocks for each cool color.
The warm colors of red, orange, yellow and maybe red-violet are going into modified Log Cabin blocks.
There will be four or five 7.5" blocks in each of the warm colors.
So this year there is a plan for the blocks. I'm hopeful that means I'll have at least a finished flimsy at the end of this year's challenge. I'm heading off for a second cup of coffee, them I'm going to check all the links over at Soscrappy to see past and future rainbow scrappy goodness.
Also linking up with Oh Scrap on Sunday.

Our Junior session is typically one hour in length. This program will offer a 30 minute group lesson, followed by independent practice time. The Junior program is the next step from CanSkate, skaters in this program must have achieved Level 5 in CanSkate. The program will introduce skaters to the disciplines of skating: skills, dance and freeskate incorporating lessons in each area. Private lessons must also be arranged in this program. Parents are responsible to make these arrangements and to pay the coaching fees associated with private or semi-private lessons directly to the coach.
The group lesson will focus on the skills in Stage 6 of the CanSkate program, developing skills that will help skaters transition from badges to the test program, which consists of Stroking, Free Skating, Dance, Interpretive Skating and Skating Skills.
Once your child passes Stage 6 in the CanSkate program, they will begin theSTARSkate program, which stands for Skill-Test-Achievement-Recognition. Skaters in STARSkate are able to progress through the system at their own rate, exploring many avenues of interest. STARSkate provides the tools for skaters to develop self-confidence, motivation, time management skills and determination. This is where most skaters develop a passion for the sport that carries with them for a lifetime. Friendships are made, goals are achieved and celebrated, as skaters learn about themselves and develop their self-image. Skaters are able to experiment in various skating disciplines in a non-threatening and friendly atmosphere.
Dance, in the STARSkate program consists of 6 levels, Preliminary, Jr. Bronze, Sr. Bronze, Jr. Silver, Sr. Silver and Gold with 3-5 dances per level. In the junior program, skaters will be working at the preliminary level.
Free Skating levels match the Dance levels; Preliminary, Jr. Bronze, Sr. Bronze, Jr. Silver, Sr. Silver and Gold. Each free skating test consists of 2 parts – Part A: Elements in Isolation and Part B: Program. In the junior program, skaters will be working at the preliminary level. Freeskate involves jumps, spins and stroking.
Skating Skills is the essence of skating. The program incorporates the language of skills of the sport that makes skating unique. It's back to basics with edges and turns for the skaters to have the opportunity to train for balance, control and power. There are 6 levels that follow the same format as Dance and Free Skating; Preliminary, Jr. Bronze, Sr. Bronze, Jr. Silver, Sr. Silver and Gold. For each level there are 3 exercises the skaters must perform.
Page 1 or 2
Skaters need to know the expectations of this program. Some include:
- Hair must be tied back and away from face.
- Skating attire must be worn – no jeans, long scarves, etc.
- Skaters must get up promptly after a fall, unless injured.
- Skaters who are in a lesson or performing their program, dance or skills to music have the right of way.
- No standing in the middle of the ice.
- Promote good sportsmanship by encouraging fellow skaters and respecting their work time on the ice.
- Many of the above are included in an ice etiquette form that must be read and signed.
Test Days
Skate Kingston hosts low-test days for skaters working on Preliminary, Jr. Bronze and Sr. Bronze level tests approximately 3 times annually. High tests are for skaters working above those levels. If your child is performing at a test level standard, their coach will indicate that a test day is approaching. Currently, tests cost $20 each. Normally, skaters test dances first, and a partner, other than your child's coach may be required. A partner will be an additional expense and rates are determined by each partner. Your private coach can give you more details about this when your child is ready for testing.
How often should my child skate?
Look at the schedule and determine how often you would like your child to skate. The current schedule allows between 1-3 days per week.
How do I hire a coach?
Hiring a private coach is very important in developing your child's skating skills. To see a list of our coaches and their qualifications, please go to the Skate Kingston website and click on "Our Coaches". Make sure that your coach is available the nights you will be skating. Alternatively, you can watch how your child interacts with other coaches and talk to other parents for recommendations or information. You can expect private lessons to cost approximately $8-12 for 15 minutes of a coach's time. Coaches may deliver semi-private lessons with up to 4 skaters and prices will vary. It's important that skaters are working at similar levels for semi-private lessons for your child to benefit from them. Rates are determined by individual coaches.
If you contact multiple coaches in regards to their availability to give skating lessons to your skater, once your decision has been made and you have a confirmed agreement with a particular coach, please verify with the other coaches you contacted your coaching requirements are settled, and thank them for their time.

Sereetsi takes a step further with Kgalagadi Soul Tour
Local jazz crooner Tomeletso Sereetsi alongside Mumba Yachi (Zambia) and AusTebza (South Africa) have embarked on an epic project.
The trio form a collaborative project called Kgalagadi Soul Tour 2017, which is slated to tour different parts of the continent, and will take their work to other parts of the world once they have explored Africa.
This April (April 15th), they are pencilled to play at the annual Kgalagadi Jazz Festival in South Africa. Coincidentally, this is where Sereetsi and his agent, Tumi Peter of Back to Music Agency first got ideas about bringing together different African artists into one band.
Speaking in an interview with VIBE, Sereetsi explains that their band would comprise of an international line-up with members from different parts of the continent and the world. Ideally, the band, he says will have six or 7 members on stage representing different countries.
"We are looking at having a rainbow band… We also plan to hold workshops in the different parts of the continent where we will tour," he says.

Rideau Hall, Monday, May 7, 2012
It is a pleasure to welcome all of you to Rideau Hall. Tonight is a wonderful occasion to renew the bonds between our two countries.
In the 64-year history of the State of Israel, Canada has always been a friend and trusted partner. Yet, there is still so much potential for both our nations to collaborate, to be leaders, to be brokers for long-lasting peace and prosperity. To leave a legacy for our children that will allow them every opportunity to succeed. And we can do this together.
Both of our countries recognize the importance of innovation. In recent years, our collaboration has grown, with such initiatives as the Canada-Israel Industrial Research and Development Foundation, as well as the Canada-Israel Technology Innovation Summits.
What impressed me, however—and what is not as widely known—is the speed with which Israel became an innovation nation. From the beginning, you tackled the challenges of living in a veritable desert. In a short span of time, you had developed new agricultural techniques, transforming arid land into usable soil. And within a decade of Israel's independence, you were helping African countries with their own agricultural needs.
Today, Israel is known as the "start-up nation," a place where entrepreneurs with big ideas can find a supportive environment in which to build a business. This is why Israel is a leader in innovation and why Canada is eager to find new arenas for partnerships, in such areas as water, renewable energy and neuroscience.
But Israeli innovation does not end at science and technology.
For many years, Israel has focused its efforts on providing quality education, allowing young people the chance to grow and to contribute to Israel's future. Your students also realize the importance of an international education, as hundreds of Israeli students study in Canada each year. And I am pleased to see that our partnerships extend to our learning institutions, with some 30 agreements that share our knowledge in a variety of ways.
I hope that your visit, Mr. President, will lead to further exchanges between our universities and colleges, as well as our students.
I have often spoken of innovation and education as one of the pillars of a smarter, more caring world. But equally important is giving— volunteerism and philanthropy—a concept ingrained in the Jewish community.
I have recently discovered that the word צדקה (tzedakah) in Hebrew is commonly associated with charity. To give to others, to help others help themselves, to donate freely are tenets taught to every Jewish child, in Israel and around the world. Here in Canada, we see this every day in communities across the country, ideals passed on to subsequent generations. Some see this as a religious duty, but we can all see this as a moral duty.
Tzedakah is doing what is right, not just when it is convenient, but all the time.
Sarah Herskowitz, director of international relations for ALEH—an Israeli organization that provides children with medical and rehabilitative care—recently wrote about "innovation in caring." To me, this shows that Israelis are looking out for one another, supporting one another, making sure that you help those in great need, and always looking for new ways of delivering this aid.
This is a new way to look at giving, one that is ingrained in our DNA, one that is always second nature to us.
This is tzedakah; this is Israel.
For more than 60 years, our two nations have been engaged in the sharing of knowledge that comes from a close and friendly relationship.
Tonight, as we celebrate our ties, let me raise a glass and toast to our shared history and to the promise of even more exchanges based on our commitment to building a smarter and more caring world.

Layla Belle Mitchell aka Miss Jenkins
July 15th 1997 - November 11th 2008
My beautiful, grumpy and endlessly curious Layla Belle aka "Miss Jenkins" has gone to doggy heaven. I know she is leading the choir, teaching the class and definately getting in line first for the food. Brought to me as a 3 week old stray, I thought I was saving your life and you ended up adding so much to mine. Your funny ways and that sideways bop of yours will be missed. It is simply not the same without you....nobody bossing me around......giving me the cute eye for Snickerdoodles (....don't tell the Doc!!) or putting that wet nose on the side of the bed to check on me when I'm not feeling so well. How did we ever get so lucky? 11 years just wasn't enough. We miss you and will think of you always. Forever in our hearts.....Forever ever!!!
Love Mom, Your hubby Poker, Zella Bella, Aunt Bo, Til, & Aunt Dee

No time to panic at Ipswich Town – let's see what this Saturday brings
Pagepix Ltd
Fuller Flavour: Losing at QPR will tell a story that is statistically correct in that we have now lost three games in a row, writes Karl Fuller.
Does this mean that we should now revert back to our mood at the end of last season after such a good start to the season?
Has the feel-good factor evaporated already?
I would rather take each of the last three games in isolation and stay with the fact that we continue to miss a number of key players, especially at the back.
We were all heaping praise on the efforts of our kids at Crystal Palace. That was an acceptable defeat if there is ever such a game.
Then two weeks ago, Fulham were simply too good for us no matter who we had missing on the day.
QPR had already beaten Reading and Hull at Loftus Road this season and are obviously decent on home soil. Plus we never get anything there these days. So let's put that one to bed and see where we're at this time next week.
It would be foolish to read too much into the fact that Bolton, Saturday's opposition at Portman Road, are bottom of the league so must be a poor side. But if there was a fixture to really see where we are at now, then perhaps this will come at a good time for us.
Win and all will be well again and we can dismiss Fulham and QPR as two tough games.
Lose and then maybe we can start to get a bit twitchy about where we're heading.
I'm not saying it's a must win game but it was a real rarity to feel good about Ipswich again throughout August, I just hate the thought of those days being behind us again so soon.
We saw some changes on Saturday and though the result might suggest otherwise, I think they were probably for the best.
Callum Connolly coming in for his debut made sense to give our defence at least one player in their correct position – in the event, we had two in their rightful place.
Our midfield was questioned again and with Tom Adeyemi now fit again maybe we'll start to see him involved more. But for me, it's an old-age problem of ours and that is genuine width with pace.
Surely Bersant Celina is ready for a start. Get him in from the start against Bolton I say.
I often think that too much of the simple side of the game has disappeared. Whatever happened to a good-old fashioned 4-4-2? Why don't we see two authentic wingers anymore?
I do wonder what we could do with two genuine wingers with pace, a couple of solid but forward-thinking midfielders. I suppose every club in the Championship is after that magic formula but at Ipswich, it's rare to see us even trying this.
I'd love to see us get at Bolton from the off.
Maybe have Celina and Danny Rowe attacking down the wings, get Adeyemi in from the start with say Flynn Downes. The problem with this is, which two of Joe Garner, Martyn Waghorn and David McGoldrick would you play up top?
When you pose questions like this, you realise to an extent the dilemma that Mick has when making his team selections.
Whilst I'm glad not to have his selection headaches, I do wish sometimes he could be a little more adventurous with his tactics instead of being too conservative as he is at times.
So for now, I'm not pressing the panic button just yet, the ice is not thin and there's still much to smile about so far this season. Yes we have lost three games in a row, but have a great opportunity to bring an end to that run on Saturday.
Lose on the other hand and I can see the tide of goodwill turning against Mick.

True Life: Trolls Come In Many Forms
I was designing a graphic in Inkscape and noticed that I could not get things to go the way I wanted. Every time I did one thing something completely different would happen. If you ever made any attempt at graphic design then you know it can be a very tedious and stressful roller coaster. After going back and forth from success to failure with my graphic something caught my attention.
I noticed a huge fly was trapped in my room and kept landing on different light sources. This fly would go back and forth from the TV to the computer screen, completely dodging my attempts to swat it with a book. This fly was the Usain Bolt of flies but, even less cute and too quick for my swats. At some point I saw him land on the desktop screen and my graphic changed slightly. I then remembered that the computer had a touch screen display, so every time the fly would land he would click something. I couldn't believe I allowed myself to be trolled by a fly. So many questions ran through my mind like, how come I have to hit the screen to get Windows 8 to cooperate and this nasty fly lightly lands and now my words go from pink to yellow?
This story actually happened a few nights ago and today I thought back on it and realized there's a lesson here.
The Life Lesson
The lesson is sometimes people can hinder you by not understanding why something is important to you. Some people are like the fly, they only understand THEIR need to be in your space. But, they have no understanding that their presence doesn't contribute to anything positive. Maybe they don't have enough knowledge to assist you or money to support you but like the fly they can't even offer words to push you. Just hanging out in your space and in your way for their own comfort. It's not that they're bad people they just weren't designed to understand you. For those people in your space and in your way you have to swat with a book (please don't actually do this).
You have to get them out of your way so you can grow or accomplish the goals you set out for yourself. They may not understand your needs, drive or passion and liking you simply isn't enough. You need to surround yourself with people that more than like your company or what you have to offer, they have to get you. The individuals around you don't to have fully see your vision because it's not there's to see. However, they have to be willing to understand it. If they are unable to connect with you the way you need then, they have go hang out where flies belong, away from your space.
What's the craziest way you've ever learned a life lesson?

Today (March 4) would've been Chris Squire's 69th birthday. The iconic bassist and founding member of Yes lost his battle with leukemia in June 2015, and the void he leaves in the prog band is simply massive.
Squire's appeared on every single studio release from Yes (21 in all) since their self-titled debut in 1969, and the band hadn't played a show without him until his death. (Like we previously stated...simply massive.)
In his honor, we assembled a playlist of some of our favorite bass solos from Squire.

Here are 3 advantages of a limited company and 3 disadvantages when compared to self employment.
Advantage no. 1 – Protection from bankruptcy
If you become a limited company and your business goes bust, it is the company that goes bankrupt not yourself. This means that you can lose your business but not lose your house – very important! The reason this is possible is that in law, a 'limited company' means that all the business financial transactions are held in the limited company and are separate to the business owner. This is where the word 'limited' comes from. You are 'limited' in your liability.The only way this doesn't happen is if you have given someone control over your personal assets i.e. you have raised money for your business from the bank but the bank has asked for a 'personal guarantee' i.e. something that overrides the limited company. In this way, if the business goes bankrupt, the bank come after you.
Advantage no.2 – Commercial credibility
For some business owners, it will be important to appear bigger than they are. Being a limited company helps this (as does becoming VAT registered). This isn't always a vanity thing. In some industries, it is impossible to trade if you are not a limited company. For example, local councils tend not to want to deal with self-employed individuals.It is worth finding out whether becoming or not becoming a limited company actually matters to customers. For some, it will absolutely matter. Although, I would say, that nobody has ever asked me whether I am a limited company or not (I am!), they are not bothered.The reason why some customers want a limited company is that a limited company appears more official and legal than merely self-employment.
Advantage no. 3 – You save tax as a limited company
This is the best advantage and applies to every business of profits of over £30,000. This is the current tax saving between a limited company and self employment.
- Profits
- Tax saving
- 30,000
- 1,809
- 40,000
- 2,709
- 50,000
- 3,821
- 60,000
- 4,021
- 70,000
- 4,221
You will need an accountant to make sure you get these tax savings (see disadvantages below) but there is a big tax saving for anybody thinking of becoming a limited company.It all sounds good, but before you set up a limited company see below for the three disadvantages….
Disadvantage no. 1 – Accountancy fees are higher
This is because there is three times the level of work needed to run a limited company. Although on the numbers below, at the profit level of £30,000 and above, your tax savings will more than cover this.Also, as a limited company, you will need an accountant. Some self-employed individuals successfully compete their tax returns themselves. As a limited company, you will need to get an accountant since the limited company accounts are far more complicated than a tax return.Here is a run down of what an accountant will do for you if you are a self employed individual or a limited company.
Self employed
- Personal Tax return
- Simple accounts (optional)
- Limited company
- Personal tax return
- Director's payroll
- Full statutory limited company accounts for HM Revenue & Customs
- Abbreviated statutory limited company accounts for Companies House
- Corporation tax return
- Annual return
- Dividend vouchers
Disadvantage no. 2 – There is more to do and think about as a limited company
As you can see above, there is more going on with running a limited company and whilst an accountant will do most of it for you, there are more things to be aware of and learn. The relationship with your accountant is likely to be more involved and communication more regular as well.If you are starting a business then self-employment is often the most straight-forward option since it is the easiest to set up (see below). You can also change from self-employment to limited company at any point (although slightly messier to change the other way round).
1. Decide who are the shareholders / directors. Shareholders are more important, these are the people who earn from the company. Directors are responsible for running the company.
2. Decide on a company name, office and email us your name, address, date of birth, occupation, nationality and NI number
3. We will set the company up within 24 hours and email you an incorporation certificate
4. Set up a bank account (you will need your incorporation certificate
5. We will then set up you as an employer (for payroll) and self assessment (for tax returns) and set us up as your agent with HMRC
6. You will receive a letter from the corporation tax office, send it to us
7. Voila
All limited companies need to submit year end accounts and a corporation tax return.
The first strange thing to notice is that the corporation tax return and year end accounts are due 12 months after the year end whilst the corporation tax is actually due 9 months and 1 day after your year end. It is slightly bizarre, but in reality, your year end accounts for Companies House AND HMRC will be completed within 9 months so you know what corporation tax to pay. It is well worth putting the corporation tax due date in your calendar and ensure you build it into your cash flow since it could be a large sum that if not planned, could kill your cash flow.
Whilst you do have 9 months after the year end to complete the accounts and corporation tax return it is far better to complete this much earlier, my recommendation is within 3 months. There are two reasons for this, firstly, so you know how you have performed – sales, profit and cash and secondly, so you know what the corporation tax amount is way in advance of having to pay it. If it is a large sum it is far better to know 6 months in advance than 6 days in advance
Your annual return is a much simpler document than the year end accounts. It is essentially a confirmation that your company name, registered office, director and shareholder's details are the same. It doesn't take very long to do and can be completed online. It costs £15 to complete.It has to be completed annually. Just before the anniversary date of your original incorporation date, you get issued with a letter requesting you to complete the annual return within 28 days of the incorporation anniversary date. So in the example above, this annual return would be by 6 July 2016.
The request letter that Companies House is bizarrely over the top, threatening you with a £5,000 fine and dire consequences if you don't complete the annual return. I guess someone at Companies House must have had a bad day when they drafted the letter because it truly is a very scary looking. However, I have personally never known anybody fined £5,000 for late submission of an annual return when in contrast, the letter to complete the year end accounts is much more serene and I have rarely known anybody NOT to have to pay a fine if they submit the year end accounts.
Pre 2008, getting a mortgage was one of the easiest things in the world.
Since the financial crash of 2008, it has been increasingly difficult for anybody to get a mortgage but if you are self-employed, a freelancer or a contractor it can be even harder.
If you are employed, you can pretty much produce 3 months payslips and most mortgage providers will give you a mortgage providing you earn enough.
The trouble with being self-employed, freelance or a contractor is that you are viewed as a higher risk since (in their eyes) you don't have a 'real job' or you don't have steady employment.
You can produce your tax return or your accounts but they will often need an accountant to verify the numbers and in some cases, predict the future profitability of your self-employment.
There is also something very important for you to know….
Good accountants will always be trying to save you tax. They will do this by reducing your profits by making sure you have all the legitimate costs in the business. The trouble is that this may go against your desire to get the property of your dreams since you may need your income to be higher.
Also, mortgage companies will often look at your personal tax return and not your limited company accounts. Which means it becomes less about what you actually earn (how much profit you have made in the year) and more about what you have taken out of the company. So you sort of get penalised for leaving money in your company.
There's two ways around these problems…
Firstly, tell your accountant when you are just beginning to think about moving and secondly, get a decent mortgage broker who can communicate the mortgage provider and will be able to bring in the limited company accounts numbers as well as the tax return.
If there is no trading activity in your business, you still need to submit accounts to Companies House.
This can be done for a very low fee as it is very straightforward.
Make sure you do get this done though as the fines for not submitting accounts to Companies House (even dormant ones) are steep. £150 if overdue, going up to £375 if over 1 month and £750 if over 3 months !!! (They then double if you are late in the next year!)

Picture of my bags "The butterfly", in Tokyo in 2011 where I participated in a design exhibition called "Tsunagaru".
The bags are part of my "Carry-a-comic" project that started in 2004. The idea came up when I was working on a comic strip for a newspaper but had no idea about what story to tell, the creative block was total. The three empty squares in front of me on the paper desperately needed content. I then suddenly got the idea to add content oustide the squares instead - by adding handles to them. I really liked the idea to carry a story; imagine if you one day would meet someone carrying another part of your story!

Los Lobos
Three and a half stars
The Ride
Hollywood Records
From the sound of their latest album, those East L.A. roots rockers, Los Lobos, are making music for the sheer fun of it.
They open the CD with the mambo – "La Venganza de los Pelados" – and two songs later serve up the funkfied blues blaster on "Is This All There Is?"
When Los Lobos have a musical party such as the "The Ride," the guest list is as top shelf as the music. On this record, Tom Waits rakes up vocal gravel for "Kitate," Elvis Costello wears a halo on the inspirational "Matter of Time" and Ruben Blades takes a bow with the album's showstopper, "Ya Se Va." Other guests along for "The Ride" are Richard Thompson, Mavis Staples, Alvin Lee and R&B vocalist Bobby Womack.
Too bad Los Lobos can't bring all their guests along on their tour this summer.
Lola Ray
Three stars
I Don't Know You
DC Flag/Red Ink Records
On its debut disc, Lola Ray, a New York City-based garage band on Good Charlotte's label, proves that studied pop craftsmanship and the punk underground aren't completely incompatible.
Lead singer John Balicanta has a quirky voice that wants to shout, but he restrains himself so the band can indulge in harmonies and the occasional ballad.
The best of them is "Slave," a love song with a '60s California feel.
He isn't as successful on "Charlit Movie Star," another love song that's all sap and goo.
While the rest of this disc has edge and maturity, it seems as if this number was written by a puppy-love smitten teenager.
Sure, the band recoups quickly, but on a 10-song album, one stinker is one too many.
Various Artists
Power of Soul: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix
Three and half stars
Image Entertainment
Somebody has to keep the spirit of Jimi Hendrix alive, and these days it seems as if everyone wants in on the act.
This tribute is an 18-song collection that uses Jimi's classics as a springboard for artists as diverse as Sting and Cee-lo to experience and experiment with.
The performers include superstars Santana, Prince, Eric Clapton and Lenny Kravitz, and the song list includes all of the hits – from "Are you Experienced?" to "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)." Chaka Khan (the only female vocalist on the disc) is inspired as she lets "Little Wing" soar into a gospel rave.
The only tune that's totally botched is the Sounds of Blackness' big-band version of "Castles Made of Sand."
Kimberley Locke
One Love
Three stars
Curb Records
There's nothing that says you gotta win the "American Idol" talent contest to be a winner in pop music.
Remember Kimberly Locke? She was No. 3 in last year's competition, behind Rubin and Clay. Her debut is a tight blend of pop, soul and standards.
She does lapse into milquetoast on a duet with her pal and former competitor Clay Aiken for the weepy "Without You," but, to her credit, she doesn't rely on ballads as her primary attack.
One of the tracks where she finds integrity is the Prince-like "It's Alright." As for the rest of the disc, she's always best when the material is upbeat, optimistic pop with a syncopated rhythm.
The one exception is her soulful retooling of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," in which Locke turns the cabaret standard insideout with a smoky soul rendition.

Volunteers and staff had a relaxing time visiting with one another, eating good food and listening to some mountain dulcimer music before dinner. Thanks to all the Haywood folks who made this beautiful afternoon a reality.

Irwin Mitchell's specialised medical negligence team has helped a woman claim a five figure sum in compensation after a delay in diagnosis caused a permanent injury to her right wrist.
In August 2009 our client, Mrs W, fell from her BMX bike whilst riding and injured her wrist. She attended the Accident and Emergency department at Broomfield hospital where a number of x-rays were taken of her wrist. She was diagnosed with a fracture to her left wrist, which was put in a cast, and was advised to attend her local Accident and Emergency department the following day.
She attended Milton Keynes Hospital as advised the next day, where she also advised doctors that she was suffering from pain in her right wrist. She was examined by a doctor who looked at x-rays of her right wrist. The doctor did not see evidence of a fracture and requested Mrs W be put in a backslab for one week until the bruising went down.
A few weeks later the pain in Mrs W's right wrist continued to get worse and therefore attended her local GP clinic. She was referred to hospital for a further x-ray which found a fracture to her right wrist. A cast was put on this wrist and she was asked to return in eight weeks.
On returning to hospital it was found that the fracture on the right wrist failed to heal. Mrs W had to go through two further surgeries including a bone graft to fix the fracture.
The injury now prevents Mrs W from doing any of her pre-accident hobbies of BMX riding, swimming and playing badminton.
Mrs W approached Irwin Mitchell's medical negligence team, where specialist solicitor Kate Major dealt with the claim. Expert evidence was gained from a hand surgeon who confirmed that if the fracture had been picked up earlier, Mrs W would not have had a permanent injury to her right wrist.
After expert evidence was gained, the hospital admitted they should have picked up the fracture. As a result of both the negligence and long-term suffering sustained, Mrs W has received £75,000 in compensation to aid her recovery.
If you or a loved one has suffered due to a delayed or misdiagnosed medical condition, ourclinical negligence solicitors could help you claim compensation. See our Medical Misdiagnosis Claims page for more information.
