Formation of the panel of examiners
With the exception of the first stage (DGA1031), the doctoral exam is evaluated by a panel of examiners comprised of three or four individuals, in addition to the Co-Director, if applicable.
The members of the panel of examiners
include the following:
The Research Director;
One or two ÉTS professors who hold a Ph.D. and work in a related field;
One ÉTS professor from outside of the Research Director's department who holds a Ph.D., and who preferably works in a field related to the project. This professor acts as the chairperson of the panel of examiners;
The Co-Director, if applicable.
Other members may be added
to the panel of examiners:
An external member, preferably with an industry background, who may or may not have an interest in the project. This individual must hold at least a master's degree.
An independent external member.
If an independent external member is recommended,
the Research Director must attach the following to the form:
A detailed curriculum vitae or biographical notes indicating the list of the independent external member's recent publications and the list of recently received funding, with identification of any co-recipients; or
A declaration of the absence of any conflict of interest, duly completed and signed by the independent external member.
In order to ensure the transparency of the evaluation process, the independent member must come from outside of ÉTS, and must not have had any links to the Research Director, the Co-Director, the student or the student's research project for a period of 5 years. More specifically, this means that there must not have been any joint publications or funding.
In the case of a confidential project, the Research Director must ensure that all of the members of the panel of examiners sign the form entitled
Entente de reconnaissance de confidentialité
(Confidentiality recognition agreement), which is available from the
Bureau des cycles supérieurs
(Graduate and Ph.D. studies office). Consult the document entitled
Confidentiality of Dissertations and Theses
In the middle of the term in which the student is enrolled in Research Problematics (DGA1031), the Research Director will undertake the process of forming the panel of examiners for the 2nd and 3rd stages of the doctoral exam. This will ensure that the panel of examiners will be in place for the beginning of the term in which the written doctoral exam will be administered, and that the student can obtain the list of material to be studied in a timely manner.
The number of members of the panel of examiners is determined by the Dean of Studies, who verifies the relevance of the panel. To the extent possible, the members of the panel of examiners for the evaluation of the thesis are the same as for the doctoral exam. An independent external member must be added to the panel for the evaluation of the thesis if there was no such member for the doctoral exam.
During this same term, the
Bureau des cycles supérieurs
will send the Research Director the necessary documentation for formalizing the formation of the panel of examiners.
Appointment of members
The members of the panel of examiners are appointed by the Dean of Studies, based on the recommendations submitted by the Research Director. The members of the panel of examiners receive confirmation of their appointment by e-mail, which includes a copy of this procedure. The student is informed of the appointments at the same time.
Role of the chairperson
The chairperson of the panel of examiners is responsible for the proper functioning of the doctoral exam, and for ensuring that the applicable rules and policies are respected. If any irregularities are noted, it is the chairperson's duty to report them to the Dean of Studies.
As an ÉTS professor, the chairperson must carry out the responsibilities of the position with impartiality and diligence. During this mandate, the chairperson of the panel of examiners receives the support of the services provided by the Dean of Studies Office, and assists and works in cooperation with the Ph.D. Program Director.
Role of the Research Director within the context of the doctoral exam
The Research Director acts as a resource person and liaison between the panel of examiners and the Dean of Studies Office, and works with the other members of the panel of examiners to coordinate the content of the doctoral exam and the selection of reference documents. The Research Director informs the student of the required subjects, the specific subjects that will be addressed during the exam, and the list of materials to be studied in preparation for the exam, and is responsible for submitting the results of each stage of the doctoral exam to the
Bureau des cycles supérieurs
within the applicable time limits.

Over two years ago, we reported on CabCorner's discussions with several of the finalists in NYC's "Taxi of Tomorrow" competition. Unfortunately, none of our partners were selected, thereby denying our cab-sharing system a city-sponsored introduction into the taxis themselves.
However, it's nonetheless satisfying to see New York's program finally come to fruition with the arrival of the winning design. This Earth Day, let's give the future something to be proud of. Cross your fingers and hope the Taxi of Tomorrow becomes the Cab of Today.

We Should Show Understanding Towards Indian Students Coming to Canada Through "Fake" Marriages
Opinions / September 11, 2017
Canadians shouldn't judge international students trying to get an education here, even through arranged marriages
Alyssa Laube, Coordinating Editor
Newspaper ads in India designed to set up "fake" marriages between Indian and Canadian students have recently been discovered as a method of bypassing the hassle that comes with paying international student tuition and maintaining the paperwork needed to stay in the country.
For the students that are emigrating, this deal promises much easier access to an education, job, and citizenship in one of the world's most desirable locations for attending post-secondary school. Those waiting for their new spouse in Canada get a partner for the cost of paying their travel expenses and housing an extra person in their home.
Although deals like this seem simple at a distance, they can end up being extremely complicated for both sides. Arranged marriages can easily go wrong when, for instance, the couple finds that they are completely incompatible or downright miserable together once they start their marriage in Canada. What's more, if an aspiring Canadian student from India has troubles getting into school or into the country, the entire agreement can fall apart. What happens if one party wants a divorce, and the other wants to stay together? What if the student from India is forced out of their agreed-upon living or financial situation, and is left on the streets?
In an advertisement found in an Indian newspaper called Jagbani, a 24 year-old Canadian man named Barbar Sikh requested a "BSc or IELTS pass girl" as a wife. The advertisement stated that the "boy's side will pay all expenses to go to Canada." Other ads follow a similar format—almost always with the Canadian family offering to pay travel and citizenship expenses in exchange for the Indian family's son or daughter, as long as they can speak English and have an education.
Students from India make up a huge portion of KPU's international student body, and the likelihood of some of them being involved in these fake marriages for citizenship is quite high. This could potentially be an issue for the financial side of KPU, as the university makes a substantial profit off of international student tuition. It also very likely irritates members of the provincial and federal government, but technically, there is nothing illegal about arranged marriages.
There is a clear distinction between forced and arranged marriages, and while the federal government has been talking about making forced marriage illegal here for years, action is yet to be seen. This makes life easier for those happy in their arranged spousal situation, but probably much harder for everyone else being held hostage in a relationship they aren't enjoying.
It's reasonable for international students in Canada to want to avoid paying fee after fee to settle and go to school here. As Canadians, our primary concern should be the well-being of the people involved in these marriages, and the government should have legislation in place to prevent toxic forced marriages from taking place on Canadian soil.
When it comes to setting up a fake marriage to get a proper education, however, there's little reason to get upset with the students smart enough to find a way to better themselves without paying through the nose to do it. Keep in mind that they're sacrificing a great deal by coming to Canada to live with a stranger as well. The quality of a life is immeasurably more valuable than a few dollars in international tuition for post-secondary institutions.

Skyla is the latest MCF member who first appeared in MCF: Wander's World Tour. She is set to appear in a future MCF story where she becomes a MCF member. She is voiced as a teen by Britney Snow, as a child she is voiced by Carrie Savage and then Nicole Oliver as an adult. She appears to be good friends with the MCF girls especially Tracy, Tricia, Daisy and Raina.
Physical Appearance
She has long brown hair, blue eyes with glasses around her eyes and wears a purple dress with no sleeves, and white shoes.
Skyla is known to be a very kind, gentle, and sweet person who always tries to help everyone and is usually the one to try to break up fights between people. She's also been described as shy and quiet around new people due to being bullied a lot as a child.
Skyla was born as the daughter of Milo Thatch and Kida Nekah of Atlantis. When she was only a few months old, a revived Rourke suddenly appeared and threatened to kill everyone including newborn Skyla after he would steal her powers. Her parents had no choice but to give her up for her own safety. They left her on the steps of the home of Stephanie and Newton Crosby (Short Circuit) along with a gold locket that had her name and a pokemon egg for company. She was lovingly adopted to the couple and grew up on their ranch with her usual baby-sitter being the family robot Number 5. Her powers started showing very early as she could talk to animals and turn invisible to hide from bullies, sadly, this made her an outcast among other kids and she didn't have any friends. At one point, her world temporarily fell into darkness and her family lived in Traverse Town until she was 10. During one point, her heart was taken by heartless there and she was in a coma for a week giving her a nobody named Kalsyx. Kalsyx was a prisoner of Rourke's after organization XII was destroyed. As she grew older, her love for animals grew deeper and her knowledge in robotics became better. One day when she was alone, friend of the MCF Wander met her during his world tour and befriended her. She met the MCF at an unknown time later on. Later, she met Kiba Inuzuka at a bus stop after a party and fell for him so they are now dating. At some point, she had a final showdown with Rourke, defeating him and has been reunited with her birth parents and siblings.
The rest will be edited later
MCF Appearances
- MCF: Wander's World Tour (Debut)
- MCF: Sir Wanderlot(Return)
- MCF: The Sorcerer, the WatchDog and the MCF
- Skyla has a serious gun phobia, it's likely it came from Roruke's original attack on Atlantis and the death of her grandfather
- She's been known to help people to the point where she may even harm herself if she isn't careful because of how much she cares for others
- She has 3 charas who are sometimes seen near her
- Currently, she's the only MCF known to have a nobody
- She shares much in common with Fluttershy of the Mane 6 as both are shy and love animals
- She is scared of her main comet based powers cause they can hurt people if they get out of control.
- Skyla is the first MCF member to be the daughter of an unofficial Disney Princess, depending on who Emmy's biological mother is she'll be the third MCF memberl to be a princess. With the first and second being Tracy and Tricia who are the daughters of Anastasia Romanov.

SOCIAL researchers have released a wave of lifestyle trends for 2013, predicting what we will be doing, wearing, eating, seeing, listening to and buying during the year.
Entertainment is on the menu with eateries opting for big, open kitchens where diners can watch chefs at work. Chefs will be expected to interact with diners. Chef Ryan Squires has set the trend, personally explaining his meals tableside at posh Brisbane eatery Esquire. Children's food such as sausage rolls, macaroni and cheese and chicken nuggets will get an adult twist in 2013 so expect to see some of your old favourites on menus of even upmarket restaurants.
This is the big trend in dining, according to Food Forward 2013, a survey of more than 1000 consumers around the country commissioned by public relations agency Weber Shandwick.
Trendy eatery Public on George St, Brisbane, is leading the way, having already wowed diners with its version of chicken nuggets and now offering mac 'n' cheese with gorgonzola and pink peppercorns.
Meanwhile, on the Gold Coast, The Fish House at Burleigh Heads is dishing up grown-up spiders for dessert - raspberry sorbet with a gourmet ginger-flavoured soft drink.
Our love affair with spicy Asian food continue, with a newfound penchant for South American flavours.
Label-savvy shoppers will be looking closely at what goes into their food before they buy it and a quest for quality products means leading supermarkets are having to up the ante when it comes to specialist and artisan foods.
The Fast Forward report found we can expect to see more stonebaked breads at Woolies and Coles, as well as sushi chefs and even pizzerias.
Our love of gourmet food will continue to drive the spending boom on fancy kitchen gadgets, such as the all-in-one Thermomix. IBSWorld recorded a 3.3 per cent hike in sales of kitchen products since 2007, to $202 million, and it expects the trend to grow 2.3 per cent this year.
Top shelf tipples, premium spirits, exotic cocktails and boutique ciders will cause a headache for wine and beer with drinkers expected to spend less at the bottleshop and more at bars and clubs in 2013. IBSWorld research says we can expect to see a boom in niche bars such as The Walrus Club, Toowong, and Loft in West End. Kitschy corner bars, like the Junk Bar in Ashgrove and Canvas in Woolloongabba, will continue to pop up.
Book into a hotel in your city for a quality mini-break. It's a holiday without the travel time or cost. Emporium Hotel Brisbane general manager Peter Savoff said there'd already been a 20 per cent increase in local couples checking in to the hotel. "We've seen an increase coming from locals choosing to holiday right here at home in their own city. They've forfeited their usual one or two-week holiday away from Brisbane, which costs in the thousands, however they are still keen to have a 'break'.
In recent years two of the hottest acts from Australia have come from Queensland, namely DZ Deathrays and Bleeding Knees Club. Lars Brandle, Australia correspondent for Billboard Magazine, said there were plenty of up-and-coming Queensland acts. Keep an eye on Thelma Plum's debut EP Rosie out in March. The Medics play the Big Day Out tour. The Trouble With Templeton has some Triple J buzz behind it and they've an album out in 2013. Other new names to keep an eye on include Jungle Giants, Cub Scouts, Halfway, 7 Bit Hero and Lancelot.
This year we will see musical interpretations of The Addams Family, Ghost and King Kong open in Australia. In a few months Brisbane will be the second city to host Legally Blonde. In London, a stage version of The Bodyguard has opened, with rumours that producers in Australia are trying to get their hands on it for Down Under. On Broadway, Cyndi Lauper has written new music for a stage adaptation of the 2005 British comedy Kinky Boots, to open on Broadway in April.
Bye-bye Atkins. Farewell portion control.
The Manhattan Diet is set to take Australia by storm. New York may be famous for cupcakes and bagels, but the city's women manage to stay slim. How do they manage this? According to the diet's author Eileen Daspin, the trick is to "taste everything but eat almost nothing". Her tips are to eat with chopsticks (one takes smaller mouthfuls and so gets fuller faster) and to shun sauces when eating out.
The social impact of 50 Shades of Grey will continue in 2013 with the erotic novel's influence spreading to the world of fashion. High contrast colours, leather and lace details as well as cut-outs and sheer panels add up for an S&M-inspired look for local femme fatales.
Other experts credit famed German-Australian fashion photographer Helmut Newton's erotic black-and-white photography as inspiring the trend.
Green is the new black in 2013 with the powers that be at Pantone Colour Institute HQ declaring emerald as this year's jewel in the colour crown. Described as a "lively, radiant, lush green", the "it" hue has stormed both the red carpets and international catwalks, making it an accessible colour trend to replicate on both the clothing racks and make-up counters.
Tired of being overcharged for bottled water and no longer believing the hype behind the health benefits of spring aqua? BIS Shrapnel says diners will opt for tap water eating out.
There's no need to bend over backwards about the mobile phone of the future - your phone will do the bending for you. This is tipped to be the year that plastic, flexible mobiles will go from being prototypes to real-world models.

On the rare occasions when Washington policymakers glance at the East Asian radar screen these days, they don't see much beyond two potential flash points -- North Korea and the Taiwan Strait. But by focusing exclusively on these clear and present dangers, they are missing a growing blip that has the potential to be just as great a threat to the region's stability -- the re-emerging nationalist clash between East Asia's two biggest powers, China and Japan.
Even as their economies interlock ever more tightly, Japan and China find themselves on a collision course over issues ranging from territorial disputes to competition for natural resources to an arms race of sorts. The trend is doubly disturbing because it comes after years of failed effort to set aside the bitter memory of Japan's 20th-century conquests of China and other Asian neighbors in favor of building a common and prosperous regional future. It might not be too much of an exaggeration to say that how these two Asian giants sort out their differences, and what role the United States plays in the process, could, as the Chinese Communist Party newspaper the People's Daily put it, "determine the future of East Asia and even of the world as a whole."
Earlier this month, a display of raw hostility by Chinese soccer fans toward the Japanese team at the Asian Cup finals in Beijing suggested that hopes for reconciliation may have been overly optimistic. The ugly scene of Chinese spectators shouting "Kill! Kill! Kill!" at the winning Japanese team and later pelting its bus with soda bottles was the latest of several recent anti-Japanese displays. In August 2003, the accidental unearthing of some poison gas canisters abandoned by Japanese Imperial forces during World War II killed a Chinese worker and injured dozens in Heilongjiang province. Though Tokyo apologized, its meager first offer of compensation triggered angry denunciations from the victims and their families, as well as top Chinese officials.
Then in September came a media blitz over a "mass orgy" by 300 Japanese workers whose company had hired female "companions" to entertain them on a corporate holiday in southern China. The crowds of instant "couples" waiting for elevators in the hotel lobby angered Chinese guests, and news stories fueled outrage across the country, with thousands of angry anti-Japanese messages filling Internet bulletin boards.
A month later, more anti-Japanese demonstrations erupted in the streets of Xi'an after a university festival at which three Japanese exchange students performed a mildly obscene skit that was seen as making fun of the Chinese. With mobs of young Chinese chanting "Go home, Japanese pigs!" and vandalizing Japanese restaurants over subsequent days, local authorities had to round up Japanese students and cart them out of town for their own safety.
Though China and Japan reestablished diplomatic ties in 1972, not long after President Nixon's landmark visit to Beijing that opened China to the West, relations have never been harmonious. They spiraled downward in the mid-1990s after Japan's education ministry approved middle-school history texts that China and other Asian countries saw as whitewashing atrocities committed by Japanese troops against their populations in the 1930s and '40s. Former Chinese president Jiang Zemin, who has personal memories of WWII Japanese atrocities, not only made sure that Chinese children learned about them, but also never failed to tell Japanese visitors that they had better not forget "history." On a 1998 trip to Japan, he repeated that admonition at every opportunity, to the great dismay of his hosts.
Jiang's successor, Hu Jintao, who became China's first post-WWII-generation leader two years ago, clearly wanted better relations with Tokyo. In December 2002, as he and Premier Wen Jiabao explored new avenues of diplomacy, Ma Licheng, a writer at the People's Daily, published a now-famous article expressing admiration for Japan's peaceful ascent to prosperity and arguing that the government's propensity for inciting anti-Japanese sentiment produced nothing positive for China.
But that and other trial-balloon overtures from Beijing were shot down by the actions of Japan's maverick prime minister, Junichiro Koizumi. Despite objections from Beijing, Koizumi, who took office in April 2001, has made annual pilgrimages to Yasukuni, the Shinto shrine that honors Japan's war dead, including 14 top WWII military leaders convicted and executed as "Class-A" war criminals. After his second visit to Yasukuni last year, Beijing disinvited him from a commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the peace and friendship treaty, and he has been persona non grata ever since.
With such frigid relations at the top, it is no surprise that the Japanese and Chinese people feel it's okay to denigrate each other -- or that there is serious fallout on affairs of state. The two governments are engaged in an increasingly bitter dispute over a cluster of small islands midway between Okinawa and Taiwan, called the Senkakus by Japan and the Diaoyus by China. Though controlled by Japan for more than a century, they are still claimed by China. In March, a small group of Chinese activists dodged Japanese coast guard boats to land on the largest island. Japan avoided a confrontation by deporting them -- but only after demonstrators burned a Japanese flag at the embassy in Beijing.
Then in June, China began drilling for natural gas a couple of miles west of Japan's "exclusive economic zone" demarcation line, near the islands. Alarmed that the Chinese wells might draw off gas from its side, Tokyo not only protested, but launched a counter-exploration just east of the line. According to Japanese reports, the East China Sea is now dotted with Chinese navy and Japanese coast guard patrol boats that sometimes face off with each other.
The two countries are also battling over access to a vast oil reserve in Siberia. China wants Russia to build a $3 billion pipeline to its own oil center at Daqing, while Japan is offering to fund a $7 billion pipeline to a port on the Sea of Japan. Russia's President Vladimir Putin keeps putting off a decision -- giving both Tokyo and Beijing heartburn.
Although both nations side with the United States in the war against terrorism, this also has become a source of tension between them. Koizumi's decision to send a flotilla of tankers and destroyers to support the allied fleet deployed in range of Afghanistan, and his dispatch of 1,000 troops to provide non-combat support in Iraq, won praise from the Bush administration -- but rang alarm bells in Beijing. The Chinese government and media regularly denounce Japan's new activism as evidence of a revival of its prewar militarism. Beijing is not totally off the mark. The terrorist threat and U.S. pleas for help have legitimized what an increasingly nationalist political establishment wanted to do anyway: remake Japan into a "normal country," with a full-fledged military and a will to use it.
Koizumi wants to revise the postwar constitution, under which Japan "renounce[d] war as a sovereign right of the nation." The United States, whose postwar occupation wrote the constitution, is now a chief advocate of the changes, and the leaders of both the ruling Liberal Democratic Party and the main opposition Democratic Party have vowed to put the start of constitutional revision on this year's Diet agenda. Such ideas were taboo just a decade ago, but in the wake of 9/11, Japan's once-formidable pacifist forces have been unable to mount any serious opposition to them.
The Diet also recently passed contingency laws removing many constraints on military activity and authorizing the government to curtail civil liberties in times of emergency. This is couched in terms of combating terrorism and dealing with North Korea, but it has produced anxiety abroad. The China Daily said the new laws "underline the shift in Japanese military strategy from defensive to offensive," a worrisome trend "given Japan's lack of soul-searching over its history of aggression."
Of course, the Chinese aren't exactly innocent when it comes to militarism. Beijing has raised its defense budget 10 percent or more annually for more than a decade -- and is believed to spend much more off-budget -- to finance its armed forces of 3 million. Beyond nuclear missiles and an air force of growing power, China now also plans to build a blue-water navy -- one capable of operating outside coastal waters -- and to create an arsenal of high-tech conventional weapons.
The bickering between China and Japan is already producing consequences for East Asia. A decade ago, the region talked enthusiastically of forming a European Union-style economic and security bloc. But with Tokyo and Beijing at odds, few now see any realistic prospect of that.
Cynics may say the rivalry assures that a U.S. presence in the region will remain a welcome stabilizing force -- and that it is therefore to Washington's advantage to keep the two nations quarreling. But the United States can ill afford a confrontation between the two major East Asian powers at a time when American forces are stretched so thin. The good news is that the United States is uniquely qualified -- for reasons of history as well as its status as the only remaining superpower -- to mediate reconciliation. The bad news is that with Iraq dominating its every waking hour, the Bush administration is paying precious little attention. Without an active American effort to put relations back on track, though, Chinese and Japanese leaders may find it hard to deal with the rising nationalism in their respective countries, and the dark cloud it casts over their common future.

Sailing, I Am Sailing, Home Again, Across the Seas …
Dreaming Big – most people would expect a story about going forward.
But Dreams can also take you back – to where you are rooted, to where you belong.
You see, all children dream about the future.
Where will I live? What will I do?
Whom to be with, with or without children.
For hours and hours we fantasize – the world is presented to us as our oyster.
With ourselves as the hidden shiny gem.
Most of Our Dreams Never Materialise
As we grow older, we are pushed into being "realistic".
Be sensible. Choose the safe road.
The pearls lose their shine …
Our dreams are dismissed as fantasies.
Forget about becoming an astronaut. Or a ballerina.
Playtime is over, it is time to face the real world.
The world in which everything is real – apart from you.
The real you is being swamped by convention. Rules. Unwritten yet restricting none the less.
You are hardly ever smart rich beautiful funny connected enough to make your dreams come true.
So You Settle
For less? At least for something else than you envisaged.
Your passion subsides. Your drive shrinks. Your dreams vanish.
Feeling like everybody else. Or even worse, like a nobody.
That is what reality does to you.
In the words of Will Smith:
Being realistic is the most common path to mediocrity
What If…
What if we were to push behind this average state of survival?
If we chose being over doing?
Breaking free from the same same old boring chains of deemed security?
If we were to change directions in our career or relationship?
But How? You Feel So Tired
At times you do not even feel anything anymore.
Going through the motions. Re-enacting Return of the Living Dead. Over and over again.
I Will Show You How
Step One: Wake Up!
Smell the coffee (soy, regular or bulletproof).
Dig deep into your memory: what kind of activity sparked you up when you were a kid?
Sports? Dancing? Being with your friends and family?
For in those memories, in those forgotten dreams and desires you will find the answer.
Your inner child is hidden but for sure not gone – ready to run outside to play as soon as you open the door.
If you need someone to light that torch in your deep dark brain: I will be there for you!
Cooking up a tasty brew that will warm your heart and soul.

I've been itching to do some "re-purposing" and painting ...
so when I walked into GDub (no, not the president - Goodwill :))
and found this old microwave cart for $5 - I just had to get it!
Sure - the top was warping and it was pretty ugly,
but those are just minor details for us DIY'ers, right?
I had plans for this baby!! :)
A little paint, a lot of mod-podge, some left over
Fabric Scraps and one hour later ....
Fabric Scraps and one hour later ....
and you get this ---
a new shelf for SOME of my Fabric!!!! :)
It's perfect for some of the bulkier stuff - like Insul Bright or Batting!
I have a lot more to fold and put out,
but it's a start! :)
I also love that I can wheel it around and use the top for cutting, gluing, wrapping, anything really!
It adds a little more table space! :)

"The key message of a farmers market is fresh, regional, seasonal food sold by farmers and makers direct to consumers at a central location, offering benefits to customers, local farmers, producers and the community," Ms Schultz said.

|Coffee-Bean Banjo Boy
A friend of ours asked the other day what process we use to make "Bluegrass Coffee"
So, here's a small diagram and instructions on how we do it.
Thanks for asking,
Step 1.
Start with the best Coffee Beans (whole beans) that you can buy. Fresh-Roasted is always better than stale beans. Whether you like 100% Columbian, French Roast or any others, always start with the freshest you can get. Store beans in an air-tight container in the freezer until ready to use them.
Step 2.
Grind only as much as you want for immediate use. Small home grinders cost anywhere from $12.00 to $50.00. Frozen beans grind better because the oils are cold and frozen beans chip better than warm beans. Coffee gets more acidic as it stands around. If it's maintained under heat, the process quickens. So make-it, drink-it is the motto.
Step 3.
Use the "Finest Grind" you can get. The process of making coffee is allowing hot water to flow over the edge of the chipped bean. It stands to reason then that you want as many chipped edges as you can get....hence, the finer the grind, the better. Also remember that you started out getting the best coffee beans you could find and they are generally more expensive than your average grocery market variety. Finer Grind means you'll need less coffee beans which equals a savings to you.
Step 4.
The diagram (right) shows a simple 1-cup brewing process. You can alter this if you need to make a larger amount for more than one person.
Step 5.
Whether you use the One-Cup, low-tech method shown here, or use an automatic drip machine, you're always better off if you can use a metal basket rather than a plastic basket. Plastic holds the oils and acids from the coffee. The longer the basket sits without being washed allows the acid and oils to embed themselves into the plastic. The rancidity greatly reduces the quality of the next brew. The One-Cup makers come in plastic at every grocery store, but you can go to a better kitchen gadget place and find either a metal or porcelain One-Cup Coffee Maker.
Step 6.A word about cleaning your coffee maker. You always want to start out with clean apparatus but the way you clean and the soaps, chemicals and detergents you use can seriously impair, diminish and/or destroy the flavor of your next brew. Hazelnut, Cinnamon, Irish Cream and hundreds more are all flavors liked by someone somewhere, but we've yet to find anyone asking for "Soap-Flavored" Coffee. There are products sold that will help you to clean your coffee maker or you can use a little baking soda with a white vinegar rinse. Either way, when finished cleaning, rinse well several times with plain water.
Step 7.
Our chart above shows a three-step filtration. There are three reasons for this. 1) It allows the water to flow slower which creates a longer brew-time. 2) The longer brew-time allows you to use less coffee for increased savings. 3) The second paper filter helps to trap more of the oils from the coffee beans, resulting in a better flavor and paper is cheaper than coffee so why not use an extra filter rather than more expensive coffee.
Step 8.
If you haven't already, turn on CD player with Bluegrass disc in tray.

Eau Claire (WQOW) - Keep your eye on the ball? Or, in a minute, maybe you'll be thinking just the opposite trying to figure out how to keep your eyes away from balls, bats, and rackets.
April is "Sports Eye Safety Awareness Month". If there's something worth looking after, it's your eyes. One small accident can create a lifetime of potential problems.
A dart is to blame for the blindness in Bob Rubenzer's right eye, and a sudden poke continues to provoke change for Dan Jasurda.
"So, I was going for a rebound, and the guy just caught my eye," Jasurda said. "Every morning when I wake up, basically, the skin on my eye catches with my eye lid, and I have to rub out in a circular motion to detach the skin until basically it un-catches from my eyelid," Jasurda said.
Dr. Rebecca Kabat, the optometrist at River Valley Vision in Eau Claire, said any blunt trauma to the eye can cause you to run the risk of the eye compressing. "When it bends in and pulls back out, the retina can detach and that's the inside lining of your eye which is responsible for your vision," Dr. Kabat said.
From darts to buckets, and especially sports with rackets, the American Academy of Ophthalmology puts sports, like these at the top of the list for aiding in potential eye injuries. "I hit myself, and I split my eyebrow, and I think there's a split in my eyebrow to this day," said Mike Oneill, who plays racquetball at the Eau Claire YMCA.
According to AAO, every year more than 40,000 athletes suffer from some time of an eye injury. Denae Murmer, the optical supervisor at Chippewa Valley Eye Clinic, said eye injuries can be prevented. "90% of injuries with your eyes can be prevented with proper eye wear," Murmer said.
If you'd like to have protective eye wear for your sport, look for something that's ASTM standard, which Murmer said is a label that indicates the eyewear is made for sports.
After all, Dr. Kabat said your eyes are the only pair you get and cannot be replaced.
The American Academy of Ophthalmology recommends choosing eye protectors that have been tested to meet the American Society of Testing and Materials Standard (ASTM).

Cause of coffee machine explosion revealed
UK supermarket giant Sainsbury's said it has discovered what caused a coffee machine to explode at one of its stores, causing seven injuries.
The incident was caused by a failure of the coffee machine's pressure relief valve, a Sainsbury's spokeswoman explained. Heat continued to be supplied to the unit, over-pressurising its boiler.
The company switched off 158 Elektra machines across the country following the explosion in Farnborough, Hampshire, earlier this week. Many will be back in use today because the potential fault is present in only a minority of machines.
"The environmental health officer (EHO), technical representatives from the machine supplier, independent forensic engineers and Sainsbury's in-house engineering team have been investigating since Tuesday and have identified the cause of the problem," the spokeswoman said.
"The supplier of the machines has confirmed that in 2009 a design amendment was made to the machine that could potentially allow this type of failure, and that the original design of equipment could not fail in the same way.
"Thirty-two of our stores have the new design and these machines will remain out of service. The EHO has agreed that the machines in the remaining 126 stores, which are of the original design, are safe to use and can be brought back into service."
The casualties included customers and staff who were in the shop during a busy lunchtime, and who suffered cuts and burns when the machine exploded.

No Tricks, Just Treats
Yes, I know this post is three days late and I'm so sorry! Unreliable wifi, last minute GMAT prep, work, and tonight's episode of Scandal have really taken me away from the blog this week. But, I'm bringing you a sweet treat in return! DIY Halloween Goodies!!
If you can't tell by now, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. Back in college, I would scrape up whatever little money I had left to put together a box of goodie bags filled with cookies, candy and trinkets for my family. I'd find stuff in the dollar section at Target or in the seasonal section at Wal-Mart. But my favorite place to grab cheap stuff is definitely Dollar Tree. Mainly because everything is a dollar!!!
I was a little late grabbing my stuff this year to make goodie bags, so I had to pick through the leftovers. It was no joke this year. There was only one aisle left of Halloween goods and the rest of the seasonal section was already covered in Christmas items! For more on how I feel about that, click here. I did the best with the leftovers I had to create some awesome goodies.
I picked up the last two packs of these awesome Halloween tumblers (4 pack for $1) along with about five+ bags of candy, two packs of the bendy skull straws, and festive socks all for about $15. I fund the pumpkin goodie bags at Wal-Mart for $1.27. Twenty came in a pack with twist ties.
I've never used cups before so I was really excited to incorporate them into my treats this year. I put the assorted candies in the pumpkin goodie bag, the goodie bag in the cup, and added in the festive socks and bendy skull straw.
Holiday goodie bags are great for any holiday and ship pretty easily. You can put practically any and everything in your goodie bags. Try to add something sentimental, quirky or thoughtful in it and send it out to friends and families! I sent some out on Tuesday to family and friends and they're already enjoying them!!
How do you get crafty when it comes to holidays?

Quite a few drama series, including McLeod's Daughters, have received in the majority of involving 22 and 32 episodes for every year. Normally, a soap opera for instance Residence and Away would begin a different period in late January as well as year finale تحقق هنا would air in late November, with 220–230 episodes per period.

Valvona & Crolla - Edinburgh
This deli has to be the best we found in Edinburgh - (not that I know Edinburgh that well), but it is super. As well as wonderful deli stuff for sale in the shop itself, they have a super cafe with books and a regular art exhibition (Claudia Petretti's painting above). The food there is excellent and is a very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. (Coffee's also great.)
While wandering around Edinburgh, we found a 'chippy' selling "deep fried Mars Bars" (!) - unfortunately I meant to go back and take a photo but forgot - - - we didn't get to taste one either!

Starting the Circle
Side 1, Track 8 – Clinch Mountain Backstep
Side 2, Track 8 – Randy Lynn Rag
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band is best known for its Will The Circle Be Unbroken album, an epic masterpiece that brought together some of the legends of country and bluegrass music with the young upstarts.
Perhaps more than any other tunes on Uncle Charlie and His Dog Teddy, "Clinch Mountain Backstep" and "Randy Lynn Rag" may have established the Dirt Band's right to be in the same studio with those legends.
While the band often tapped into old-timey music, just as often it was with a wink and a nudge. Even on Uncle Charlie, "Chicken Reel" and "Swanee River" are played for a bit of a laugh, although perhaps more affectionately than on previous Dirt Band albums.
But on "Clinch Mountain," penned by Ralph Stanley, and Earl Scruggs' "Randy Lynn Rag," the young men just play straight up, full tilt – and brilliantly. Stanley is said to have declared, upon meeting a band member, something to the effect of "You're the boys who played 'Clinch Mountain Backstep' the way it was meant to be played." (Or is that what Scruggs said about their "Randy Lynn Rag"? In either case, both musicians were impressed.)
My favorite side of the three-record Circle album is Side 4, in which the group and their esteemed guests rip through eight of these sweet little instrumentals one after another (Tracks 1-8 on Disc 2 if you're stuck with the CDs). It's bluegrass heaven, and in these two Uncle Charlie tracks the NGDB set the stage for that moment as they showed they could keep up with the good old boys.

I was recently given a sample of Skillet Bacon Jam to try out and review. I love the flavor of bacon in some foods, however cooking with bacon frequently makes the food greasy. If you want the flavor of bacon without the fat and grease then this is for you,
Here is a description from Skillet:
We make this bacon spread condiment called bacon jam..you say what?.. that's right, we use niman ranch bacon and render it down along with onions, balsamic and other spices. It cooks for several hours until it is a perfect blend of smoky, tangy, savory and slightly sweet….basically spreadable bacony goodness! USDA approved.
Spreadable bacony goodness is an accurate description. Upon opening the container, it doesn't look too appetizing, but don't let that deter you. The aroma is like freshly cooked bacon and the taste is good, however a bit strong for me, but my husband didn't agree. The recipe below is from Skillet's recipe page with a "Lori Twist." I also equaled the bacon to mayo ratio and added garlic, one of my "go to" ingredients.
Pink Salmon with Skillet Bacon Jam and Corn Flake Crust
This is a taste pleasing combination of flavors and textures that both children and adults like and is very easy to prepare. Rather then corn flakes, I used Honey Nut Clusters for it's sweet taste to compliment the bacon flavor. It's perfect in this recipe because it keeps the steaks moist and if you use fillets, they're thin enough to offer a good crunchy topping to salmon ratio.
1/2 cup crushed Honey Oat Cluster flakes
4 tablespoons Skillet Bacon Jam
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 - 4 to 5 ounce pink salmon steaks
2 cloves sliced fresh garlic
Olive Oil
4 tablespoons Skillet Bacon Jam
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 - 4 to 5 ounce pink salmon steaks
2 cloves sliced fresh garlic
Olive Oil
As a visual when chopping the pecans and crushing the flakes, keep them the size of a corn kernel.
In a small bowl, mix the Skillet Bacon Jam and the mayonnaise.
Place the salmon, skin side down (if using fillets) in a casserole dish with the olive oil and sliced garlic on the bottom.
Spread the top of the steaks/fillets evenly with the jam mixture then sprinkle and pat the honey nut clusters on top.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until just cooked and serve immediately. Serves 2.
This was delicious! I paired it with corn and couscous for dinner. I loved the fact that there was no messy bacon grease to clean up and that the combination of bacon, salmon and the sweetness of the cereal was unique and tasty. Not only was this a fast and easy recipe, but it was so very good. I can't wait to use it again.
Want your very own bacon spread? The go to Skillet Bacon Jam's Website and shop online. They not only have this product but several others that look very good. You can also browse their recipes for some wonderfully tasty options. You won't be disappointed.
For inquiries, email them at this address
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Norman probably didn't even have a name for her. Probably to him she was just some trophy chick. But to Larry she was "Clementine LaBelle," an exchange student from France. With her yellow hair, pert white blouse, red skirt, blue shoulder bag, she reminded him of Carol, a girl he'd been keen on in high school. Clementine shouldn't hang around the Kabooze. She would end up running off with a ski instructor just like Carol did.
Larry lifted Clementine up and transposed her to the Normanville Station platform. "She got a job at the travel agency," he announced. "They want her to test-ride the Orient Express on account of she's from Europe so she's qualified."
"She's from Europe?" said Norman.
From where she stood on the platform now, Clementine could actually see the Orient Express sitting on a sidetrack. It consisted of a single navy-blue passenger coach bearing the number 3425 and the legend Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-lits in brass-colored lettering. It was attached to a plain black steam locomotive. Larry conspicuously dusted off the coach and locomotive with his handkerchief but Norman feigned not to notice.

Waymo, a standalone unite of Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) has filed a lawsuit against Uber's self-driving vehicle unite, Otto, in a dramatic development where an email exchange revealed "striking resemblance" between the two self-driving car projects, suggestion infringement of classified patents.
The lawsuit claims that a former Google employee, Waymo's manager Anthony Levandowski, "downloaded more than 14,000 highly confidential and proprietary files shortly before his resignation."
The technology that Google claims was stolen and used with no authorization by Otto, is LiDAR, which is a laser-based radar system that is used as "eyes" for self-driving cars. The email that revealed the potential legal violations included machine drawings of Ott's LiDAR circuit board.
Waymo representatives explained in a statement, "We found that six weeks before his resignation this former employee, Anthony Levandowski, downloaded over 14,000 highly confidential and proprietary design files for Waymo's various hardware systems, including designs of Waymo's LiDAR and circuit board. To gain access to Waymo's design server, Mr. Levandowski searched for and installed specialized software onto his company-issued laptop. Once inside, he downloaded 9.7 GB of Waymo's highly confidential files and trade secrets, including blueprints, design files and testing documentation. Then he connected an external drive to the laptop. Mr. Levandowski then wiped and reformatted the laptop in an attempt to erase forensic fingerprints. "
Google and Uber have a long collaborative history and business ties. Google's venture capital division invested in Uber, and Alphabet executive David Drummond previously sat on Uber's Board.
