Catherine De Orio, Host of Check Please! and Executive Director at Kendall College Trust
How did you land in the food industry?
I grew up in a large Italian-American family—so cooking and eating well has always played an integral role in my life. After almost five years as an attorney, I enrolled in culinary school at Kendall College. From there I became a culinary spokesperson for Sara Lee Corporation, which opened the doors to culinary media.
Fast-forward almost a decade and I became host for Check, Please!. The path to my culinary career was definitely not linear, but I've always had a passion for all things culinary.
What has changed regarding what culinary students need?
The industry has changed significantly since I was in school. With the rise of the chef/owner, it is more important than ever for students to learn basic business skills. Kendall has a program which allows a student to get their Associate's degree in culinary arts and then go on for a Bachelor's degree in business. I am a huge advocate of this program.
Who has inspired you, professionally and personally?
Ina Garten and Martha Stewart inspired me to take the leap from law to the culinary field. Joanne Weir—a San Francisco based chef and also a TV host on PBS. As I was leaving law to pursue a culinary career, she gave it to me straight. She said it is going to be tough and I need to be willing to work hard and be prepared to make sacrifices personally and financially.

So I tried to downgrade my wii to 3.2E again, but it didnt work at first, and I read that I have to delete all the channels and save files. So I initialised my wii to delete everything. And the hbc was gone, too. Then I used the safemiifrii method with super mario glaxy so it updates/reinstalls a new version. so now all my burned games work again, except for one: zelda tp. everytime I get the message, the the system files are corrupt. but only with tp. So I tried to autoload the game, but there is still the same error. I have the hacked savegames for 3.4E on my wii, but I just cant start zelda, so I cant use the twilight hack anymore. no I am out of ides. any help?

"It was inevitable."
Those were the words of Birmingham Brother Rice lacrosse coach Ajay Chawla following his team's first loss of a MHSAA Division 1 state championship on Saturday.
For the first time in history, the Warriors had to watch another team celebrate with that very trophy.
The MHSAA recognized boys lacrosse as a sport starting in 2005 and Brother Rice had won the D1 title every time until it lost to its biggest rival, Detroit Catholic Central, on Saturday by an 11-10 score.
Understandably, the Shamrocks were euphoric. They did something no other team has been able to do and they have fought and crawled for years to make it happen. It was truly a historic moment. More than just an average championship. More than just a win. It's a moment that both sides will remember forever, good or bad.
Related: Photo gallery from Saturday's D1 state championship
Also understandable was the dejected feelings that Brother Rice had. No member of that team wanted to be the ones to see the streak end and now they find themselves on the wrong side of a historical moment.
However, the reality is that those players were simply on the wrong side of fate.
No person, no team, no program can be perfect.
When Chawla took over the Brother Rice lacrosse program following the 2013 season for the retiring Rob Ambrose, he was entering a situation that was almost impossible to succeed in.
Ambrose had won MHSAA state titles from 2005-13 and the Warriors were recognized as national champions in 2008. The very field the team plays on is named after Ambrose.
In Chawla's first season as head coach in 2014, Brother Rice suffered its first in-state loss since 2002. That was considered a failure to the program's standards by some. The Warriors still won the state championship that season and did so again the next three years.
On Saturday, the Warriors didn't win the MHSAA state title for the first time. Again, this is considered a failure by some to the program's standards.
Imagine that.
Imagine the year-to-year expectations to have to be flawless in the state of Michigan.
Imagine winning a state championship not being about the joy of reaching the pinnacle of your sport, but being about the relief of not being the team to end "the streak."
Chawla and the Warriors have nothing to be ashamed of. Catholic Central was the better team on Saturday. Brother Rice left it all on the field and lost by a single goal.
Since I moved to Oakland County six years ago, I personally have seen the rise in play of boys lacrosse in the state of Michigan. No longer is this sport just about a few teams. The talent is spreading out in Oakland County and the state.
While private schools continue to see the most success, there has certainly been a surge in the talent level of public schools. Just the past two years, Hartland has been right up there with both Brother Rice and Catholic Central in contending for the Division 1 title.
The talent pool for lacrosse is getting wider and deeper and that's a good thing.
We will never see a run like what Brother Rice has done in this sport. Not in lacrosse and not in any other prep sport. It's just not possible to sustain that level of success for such a long period of time.
Saturday's game was not about the end of an era or the crowning of a new king in boys lacrosse. Brother Rice will be fine, as will Catholic Central. Saturday's game was just a confirmation that boys lacrosse is getting stronger in the state of Michigan and we are getting closer to parody.
Will Brother Rice win another D1 state championship?
Absolutely. I am sure Saturday's loss will give the Warriors a boost in the offseason that they haven't experienced in some time.
Will Catholic Central win another D1 state title?
Absolutely. Their program has been tremendous for many years and Saturday's title just confirms what many already knew.
Will a public team win a D1 state title someday?
Absolutely. To quote Chawla, "it is inevitable."

Exploration is a series of eight paintings that embody this hungry curiosity in existence and states of being. Soft, delicious gradient washes of colours coalesce with raucous textures, realism breaks through from abstraction – much as change and contrast are an integral part of existence. It is an open-ended conversation, and people are able to explore their own inquiries and design their own conclusions. Challenged by possibility, comforted by diversity, confused by injustice, enticed by potential, motivated by hope – the journey for answers continues.

IRescueBees is providing live Bee Removal Philadelphia PA
Advertise your bee removal business here for only $250.00 per year
Interested in advertising on Bee Removal Philadelphia PA page, contact me at email@example.com
IRescueBees and our associates provide professional bee removals nationwide, come join our team.
Removing and relocating both swarms and established colonies.
Our mission is clear, to collect and protect our loyal pollinators.
Let's talk about swarms...
When you see a swarm of honey bees on your property call us right away. We will get them before they get into you house.
Honey bees live is a social order that we call a colony. As the colony out grows their nest the colony splits.
Mother queen and half of her workers leave to find a new home.
Both of these are resting. while at rest the swarm send out scouts to find a new home.
When a suitable place is found they all leave to take it over
It is much easier and less expensive to remove a swarm than to remove a colony. Call us do not wait.
Now, the basics of removing a colony...
A colony consist of a laying queen, a few hundred plus workers and a handful of drones. The comb is the nest where the honey bees raise their young and store food.
First, we need to locate the nest. After we find the nest, we expose the cavity the nest is in.
Carefully, we search thru the comb for the queen. Caging her when she is found.
At the same time we capture and cage most of the workers and remove all the comb.
Then, we take it all back to the apiary and rebuild the bees nest into a hive. The apiary is where the beekeeper tends to the needs of the colony.

Goofy lyrics, good times with The Wombats at ACL Fest
Whatever math goes into putting "X band at Y timeslot" at ACL Fest may need some revision. Playing a bright and sunny 1 p.m. slot typically reserved for newer "discovery" type acts, ACL alums The Wombats drew a (relatively) monster early-afternoon crowd near the Lady Bird Lake entrance Friday. The Liverpool-born new-wave trio played back at ACL 2012. This year they were a Weekend Two-only act, a shame (alongside their early timeslot) considering the enthusiasm and size of crowd they pulled.
The energetic all-ages, hands-up sea of pogo-ers, moshers and crowd surfers devoured the set of summertime anthems about hook-ups, pretty girls, and late nights. The band's tight-knit, pounding dance rock brings to mind the Two Door Cinema Club and is packed with falsetto hooks and occasionally bordering-on-cringeworthy lyrics (e.g., "Your body is a weapon, love… My body is a temple of doom, doomed not to be by your side") that they somehow sell as silly fun without missing a beat. It all resulted in an impossible-to-hate, carefree sound perfect for a sweaty afternoon.
"I think we're going to be carried off stage in urns: three buckets of ash formerly known as The Wombats," joked drummer Dan Haggis.
The band has one-speed (fast) but it seemed to get fans where they wanted to go. Even slower songs bustled and bounced at a brisk pace, and I've not seen so many tracks pull successful attempts at sing and clap-alongs in this timeslot in recent memory.
The Wombats' penultimate song was a turbo-speed take on infectious hit "Let's Dance to Joy Division," a song that (as the title may hint) is either likely to make you facepalm or fist pump. Live, it's a gleeful bit of pop though, and one with a chorus that rings true on a breezy music festival Friday like today: "Everything is going wrong, but we're so happy."
The Texas heat was the source of much of the band's charming banter. "This song is called 'The English Summer,' which has nothing on this [weather]. It's a really fast song so we're probably going to get heat stroke, but at least you guys will witness it," singer Matthew Murphy said. But the joke isn't far from the truth: The Wombats seem genuinely invested in satisfying their fans, spending time after the set to hand out setlists, guitar picks, and drumsticks to the delight of screaming diehards up front on the rail. They're doing what they do and doing it right. Now if they can just get a festival timeslot closer to sundown.

Posted on Tue Jun 30, 2015 5:44 am
I don't know what the fuck is being monitored anymore. I'm starting to wonder if I should fucking walk around with goddamned foil on my head. Maybe they have access to my emails, maybe they don't, but fuck maybe they're not my prime enemy right now. I know that sounds fucked, fangers haven't ever been anything but a poison thorn in our side. At times, worse. But after realizing we had enemies closer to home I can't help but feel fucking betrayed. At least we know what to expect from leeches, at least we know they're our enemy.
I've finished watching everything on the flash drive. The shit you saw is just the tip of the iceberg Oveyx, you have no fucking idea how incriminating it gets. At first I wanted to believe the video was manipulated. I was fucking close to Odin when he was alive but started really fucking hating him after he passed. But even if I hated him, I didn't want this shit to be true. He was a willing participant in all of this shit, the fangers didn't capture him and force him to do anything like they did me. He did it all of his own free will. Maybe he thought he was providing the pack with safety. Maybe it was all for selfish gain, I don't fucking know what was going on in his head, all I know was he had a lot of lies buried in his fucking backyard.
I don't fucking know. But I have made a necessary choice. No one can know about this. Not even Ghost. I don't know how to stop the pack from worshiping the ground he walked on, I don't know how to open their eyes, but we need to find another way. It doesn't matter how much proof we have, he was a master fucking manipulator, no matter what we tell them or show them, they won't believe it. Especially if they knew where our evidence came from. He blinded them so fucking bad it wouldn't matter if he came back from the dead and said it himself, it wouldn't matter if he himself admitted everything, they still wouldn't believe it.
I don't know how much time we have, but with fangers sniffing around my every goddamned move, what I do know is this Lilith bullshit isn't our only threat. If changes don't happen soon people are going to be slaughtered. I can fucking feel it in my bones that something is coming, multiple things, bad things. Speaking of bad things. Do you have any reports to make on that human? The one that you encountered in the woods a few months back? Have you found him? It's not our fucking priority but knowing at least one problem is solved would really be a major fucking morale booster. What about your Family? Shit I'll take any good news, no matter how big or small it is. Odin's journal is still missing, along with my favorite fucking leather jacket but that's not the point. Right now our number one focus needs to be the pack, and finding that journal. It's the only thing we had that the fangers did not.
I was contacted by them again a while ago. They wanted me to retrieve some metal box thing. The entire fucking experience was weird as shit. The house was in the east woods and I really fucking hate entering that side of the forest. I don't know the land there. But this fucking house was bizarre. I couldn't get inside, and long story short there was a spoken password to get inside. But it wasn't some tech shit this time. It was fucking magic. The place looked like it hadn't been occupied in years, there was dust everywhere and shit you'd think something big happened because clearly no one had been inside in a long fucking time, but all of their belongings were there. It was like they just left, they took nothing with them. There was shit everywhere too. Books, rugs, blankets, pillows, weird containers and some weirdo fucking mage chemistry set shit.
I found the box they were looking for, but there was some fucking anti-gravity fail safe spell in place. The second I picked up the box everything started floating. I fucking high tailed it out of there the second shit started crashing around the room, with the box, but when I looked back the house was gone. It was like it had never fucking been there to begin with. It was really fucking weird. It's actually sitting beside me right now and I swear to fucking god there's this low humming sound coming from inside, but there's no way to fucking open it. It isn't even fucking welded together it's just a solid piece of metal on the outside. I left with something else too, and maybe that was a bad fucking idea but there was this leather bound journal in there, I think you need to see it. Maybe it's not fucking relevant, I don't know, but you need to see it anyway.
On the plus side I got a name. Maybe it wasn't stupid of me to take that journal, because there was a name inside the cover too. Pandora Blackwood. I've tried searching but my resources are fucking limited. Any chance you can help find this person? I'm supposed to get the box to that fanger bitch soon so we don't have much time. She seemed so fucking desperate to have it, I need to know what's inside.
Anyway, keep me updated.

So many of my anti-recipes start as spins on traditional dishes (like pancakes, mac n' cheese, fried rice…) – but after I make all my WDG modifications – these recipes take on identities of their own. Hence why I call them anti recipes.
I also call them anti recipes – because you don't have to follow every ingredient perfectly to make it delicious. I'll always show substitution options because every body has different wants and needs – and you should never sacrifice what you need for the sake of following a recipe that was made for and by some other body.
My favorite thing to hear about isn't people making my recipes and enjoying them – but it's hearing about all the modifications they made to suit their own needs! It not only shows me that "recipes as rules of food creation" are meant to be broken, but it gives me inspiration for modifications next time.
Check out the recipes below for two ways to make cauliflower pizza. I've tried a lot of different cauliflower pizza recipes over the last month – and this ratio is guaranteed to look and feel and taste (legal disclaimer: almost!!!!!) just like real pizza – worst dinner guests and normal dinner guests alike, rejoice!!
Cauliflower Pizza: 'Super Paleo & Un-Processed' Edition
Ingredients: 3 cups cauliflower rice, 1/4 cup chia sees, 3/4-1 cup water, 1 1/2 tbs. basil, 1 1/2 tbs. oregano, 1 tsp. salt + pepper
Cauliflower Pizza: 'Slightly Less Paleo & More Processed, But Can Pick It Up Like Pizza' Edition
Ingredients: 3 cups cauliflower rice, 2/3 cup chickpea or almond flour*, 1/4 cup chia sees, 3/4-1 cup water, 1 1/2 tbs. basil, 1 1/2 tbs. oregano, 1 tsp. salt + pepper
* Bob's Red Mill garbanzo bean flour works wonders but you can also easily grind up some raw almonds in a food processor or blender for a coarser, but less processed flour. Anything that's been hanging out in a plastic bag for months is just not as fresh and good for your bod as something fresh and unrefined or processed by you and eaten immediately. I only use bagged flours on occasion as a special treat because of this, BUT it definitely makes the pizza more pizza-y, so do you
Directions (Both Editions):
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F)
2. Chia eggs – mix up chia seeds + water and set aside to "goo up" for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to evenly distribute the seeds
3. Make cauliflower rice – 'Rice' up the cauliflower in a food processor, blender (or even a cheese grater). Once the cauliflower is in tiny pieces, you need to squeeze the extra water out of it, unless you want to make stir-fry cauliflower mush tonight. There are a few ways to do this:
(a) Spread the cauliflower out on a baking sheet and blot with a paper towel
(b) Via Deliciously Ella: Put the rice into an almond milk bag or cheese cloth and squeeze all of the water into a bowl – this is WAY faster than option (a), but if you don't have either of these tools you can still take the "scenic route" to cauliflower rice and blot it yourself
(c) Skip all this and just buy "already riced" cauliflower from Whole Foods or Trader Joe's – more expensive but a helluva time + mess saver
4. Mix up the cauliflower rice + chia eggs + flour + seasonings. Use your hands to get everything molded together into a weird looking chia-goo batter
5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper + olive oil. Spread the chia-goo batter onto the baking sheet – and mold into a pizza shape, no more than 1″ thick
6. Cook for 30-40 minutes until the edges and center turn golden brown. Baking time will depend on how thick your pizza is, so check frequently. But don't take it out before it's golden all over or your pizza slices will get crumbly, and then everyone will think I'm bluffing about how pizza-y this fake pizza is
7. Top with all the toppings + enjoy!! (Toppings + hummus sauce inspo is below)
Toppings (Both Editions):
Veggies – While the pizza is cooking, roast some thinly sliced peppers + mushrooms + onions on the baking sheet (around the pizza)
Hummus Sauce – Blend 1 can of drained chickpeas + 2 heaping tbs. tahini + 2-4 tbs. olive oil + 2 tbs. cumin + 1 tbs. paprika + salt + pepper (sometimes I add nutritional yeast to make it 'cheesier')
When the pizza is golden brown – top with hummus sauce + roasted veggies + kalamata olives and heat for 5 more minutes
And, wallah!! Then holler at me with all the modifications you made in the true spirit of #veganfoodshare – in'

In the wake of the recently ended West African Ebola outbreak, Nigeria is now struggling with its own outbreak, although on a smaller scale.
Lassa fever broke out in August of 2015, shortly after the first cases were reported. Since then, 159 cases have been reported -- with 82 deaths. Investigators are currently looking at the numbers, so the current figures could change. Medical professionals are testing to make sure the illness couldn't be something else, and so far the samples have tested negative for dengue fever, yellow fever and Ebola.
Edo, Oyo, Bauchi and Taraba are the states that have been most affected with the fever. However, it is spread across 19 states. The 15 remaining states have reported fewer than five cases.
The World Health Organization is working on the response to the outbreak. It is providing support to the Federal Ministry of Health by helping them coordinate a response, as well as provide surveillance, infection prevention and case management. The organization is also providing additional training to health care professionals and clinicians.
Lassa fever occurs nearly every year in Nigeria. The height of the outbreak typically happens between December and February.

Thank you for your interest in learning more about my campaign to move this region forward. I hope it extends far beyond this visit. We are at a critical point that will go far beyond the politics of today. As we lay the foundation for generations to come, we face the harsh reality of a president who simply does not understand our values, listen to our voices, or even care for our mere existence.
I am running for Congress because I know that the people of southeast Michigan are once again ready for a representative whose energy and enthusiasm is as progressive as our politics. Each day that our healthcare, schools, and jobs are at risk, is a moment we lose to fight the resistance. We must defend the values of families across this region and I will be a strong voice in Congress for workers, public schools, and social programs that need to be protected.
We have witnessed the current executive's administration nearly provoke war as an option of first choice within his first four months in office. Unfortunately, this is the same approach he has taken since to advance his agenda, benefiting only the wealthiest of the top 1%. During this campaign we will be traveling across the district to talk about the important issues and make our case for the solutions to make the American dream accessible to everyday hardworking families at home!

I remember instantaneously stressing about the state of my house. 'What will they think about the dirty dishes strewn across the sink? Will they look at the floor and see that it hasn't been vacuumed?'
Let's just say that not so long ago this topped my list as my number one pet hate. It was like I was trying to put on some sort of facade, like I was trying to appear as though I had it all together, trying to be perfect, trying to be SUPERWOMAN.
Fast forward to this week and I'm happy to say that now, well, I really don't give a shit.
On Monday, my next door neighbour popped over to let me know she'd just seen a snake in her backyard and wanted to alert me because of our chooks. Although I've only just started to get to know my neighbour, I don't really know her at all. We were chatting away on the front verandah until I happily and without hesitation, invited her into our house. Elliott's toys were everywhere, there were numerous baskets overflowing with washing, a dining table covered in crap and a bench full of dirty dishes. For the first time in ages, I didn't care. After she had left, I gave myself a pat on the back, it was so damn refreshing.
When I come to think of it, it's quite likely that it made my neighbour feel somewhat normal too. I suspect that with a little toddler who is only just starting to walk, she too is unlikely to have a spotless house (I've haven't been over there yet but a playdate with the kids is on the horizon).
I think that as the almost 35 months have floated by of me being a mum, I've slowly been able to 'embrace the mess', to accept that mess is normal, to realise that people don't judge and even if they do say something to themselves in thought, that's what it is, a personal thought and something that doesn't have to affect me.
Mess is inevitable, it's there sometimes and not all the time. When it is there, I've finally learned to accept it and to not worry about what others think of it.
It's so worth not having to deal with the stress. And who knows, if I had been the old me and refused to invite my neighbour in, well, we may not have connected, had the conversation we did or arranged coffee and a play date!
I also wouldn't mind if Ryan turned up and offered to clean my house though….

Health Data Management spoke with a broad mix of electronic health vendors to understand the benefits and potential pitfalls of leveraging EHRs for screening suspected Ebola patients.
Mark Segal, vice president of government and industry affairs for GE Healthcare IT, emphasizes that while Ebola is currently a critical public health issue EHRs are really designed to be general purpose tools that can be used for a range of healthcare needs. At the same time, Segal argues that an EHR system can be customized to meet the particular needs for Ebola and to enable workflows that a hospital may want to put in place.
According to Sarah Corley, M.D., chief medical officer for NextGen Healthcare, EHRs typically contain templates or prompts for information about the symptoms (vomiting, diarrhea and fever) that patients are presenting, as well as travel history, to help healthcare workers identify individuals that may be at risk for Ebola. In particular, she reveals thatrather than just asking a series of questionsEHR systems can provide an electronic prompt that serves as an interruptive alert to the workflow.
Most electronic health records already have functionality to collect these important pieces of information necessary for the proper diagnosis of travel-related diseases, says Corley. Most EHRs also include alerts when things are abnormal, such as an elevated temperature, and also contain decision support Theyre not specific to Ebola because, after all, there are a lot of travel-related diseases that are much more common than Ebola.
Allscripts, in a statement to HDM, says that its solutions are open and allow for national, local and physician specific configuration enabling their customers to have the capacity to implement rules and alerts based on patient history, such as travel.
(See also: Epic Defends Integrity of EHR System at Texas Hospital in Ebola Patient Case)
GE Healthcare IT has implemented the Centers for Disease Control and Preventions clinical algorithm and a checklist for screening patients for Ebola in the companys ambulatory EHR products. For its part, NextGen Healthcare has web links to the CDC algorithm and checklist but has not incorporated them natively into their client-server product.
Many customers of ours dont use the full suite of functionality [including travel history and alerts] that exists in the product, they use what is part of their normal day-to-day workflow, says Corley of NextGen. Still, CDC has called on healthcare providers to pay particular attention to a patients history of travel, which is seen as a vital component for properly identifying and confirming Ebola-type symptoms.
A clinical decision support capability prompts providers with additional questions or recommended actions based on the answers, according Leigh Burchell, a spokesperson for the EHR Association and vice president for government relations at Allscripts. If there is a positive result from the initial screening, clinicians will be interrupted with instructions to follow reflecting the CDC guidance, says Segal. Corley adds that these instructions specifically include actions that should be taken, including contacting the CDC and local health departments.
Bryan Clark, managing director of emergency medicine at Cerner, says that the clinical decision support functionality provided by their EHR solution includes automatically firing an isolation order for an Ebola patient to get them isolated as soon as possible. Cerner recommends that hospitals put their EHRs infectious disease screen up front in triage at the first point of contact and on in-take forms that ask questions that can quickly ascertain an increased risk for exposure to Ebola, according to Clark.
Brian Anderson, M.D., athenahealths senior manager of clinical content, explains that some of the questions ask whether patients have come into contact with bats, rodents or monkeys that are a potential source for Ebola. Anderson, who is responsible for updating his companys EHR with CDC guidelines, says that the CDCs clinical algorithm for Ebola continues to change on a weekly basis. Because athenahealth is a cloud-based EHR, he argues that this continuously changing content can be immediately pushed out to its clients.
Feds Seek Help from Vendors
Under the Public Health-Electronic Health Records Vendors Collaboration Initiative, CDC and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT are soliciting industry input on how to configure EHR systems to support screening protocols for Ebola. CDC and ONC held a web seminar on Oct. 16 to discuss electronic screening tools for the virus.
According to Segal, one of the topics discussed in the seminar with vendors was whether screening questions should begin with travel history and then go on to look for things like fever, or begin with the symptoms and then go to travel history. Burchell says that CDC is currently recommending that the travel question be asked first, but the protocol is still under final review.
On Oct. 17, ONC held a follow-up call with the EHR Association and chief medical officers representing member companies, as well as a separate call that same day and again on Oct. 20 with CEOs and business leaders from the EHR vendor community. The calls included National Coordinator for Health IT Karen DeSalvo, M.D., according to Burchell, who is also a former vice chair of EHRA.
It is absolutely the highest priority for the member companies of our association and all resources are being put against it, she says. Due to pre-existing EHR functionality and updated guidance from CDC and ONC, Burchell claims EHRAs members are making adjustments and are prepared to deal with the Ebola outbreak, including capturing patient travel information.
What youre going to see now as an outcome of the phone calls is that most of the vendors will be educating their client base as to how they can leverage those EHR tools, concludes Corley.

Harp Music: Sacred, Classical, or Jazz?
Harp music is no longer associated mainly with religious music because of talented musicians like Jeff Majors who uses the harp to perform sacred, classical, jazz or gospel music.
Aaah! The harp. An instrument played by angels. Harp music? At one time there was a debate about whether or not the harp was solely a religious musical instrument. But thanks to breakthrough musicians like Jeff Majors, the American audience has now extended the debate to whether or not the harp is for sacred, classical, jazz or gospel music. There's nothing like getting a clarification on an unsettled dispute in order to settle the matter is there? For those of you who may have never heard of Mr. Majors, he was the gentleman who performed his interpretation of Psalm 23, "The Lord is My Shepherd", at the memorial service for Coretta Scott King, widow of Martin Luther King. At a later date, he was invited to perform on the Oprah Winfrey Show.
- Trivia: Did you know Jeff Majors enjoys such a personal relationship with his harp that "she" has a name?

Watch Out for Bullying
Bullying and cyberbullying is either physical or verbal and occurs when a child picks on another child repeatedly. It can happen anywhere at anytime, and isn't restricted to the playground or school bus anymore.
Social media has enabled bullying to happen from afar. There are more avenues than ever before for bullying to infiltrate, making it critical that parents keep a close eye on all communication platforms their children use.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends these tips for keeping your children safe from bullying this school year:
When Your Child
Is Bullied
Help your child learn how to respond by teaching your child how to:
• Look the bully in the eye;
• Stand tall and stay calm in a difficult situation; and
• Walk away.
Teach your child how to say in a firm voice:
• "I don't like what you are doing."
• "Please do NOT talk to me like that."
• "Why would you say that?"
Other tips include teaching your child when and how to ask a trusted adult for help and encouraging your child to make friends with other children. You also should be willing to work closely with school teachers and administrators to help monitor the situation when you are unable to be around.
When Your Child Is the Bully
There may be an occurrence that involves your child participating in bullying behavior. Maybe he got wrapped up in the wrong crowd or is acting out for some reason. Regardless of the cause, it's up to you to step in. Here are more tips from the AAP:
• Be sure your child knows that bullying is never OK;
• Set firm and consistent limits on your child's aggressive behavior;
• Be a positive role model to show children they can get what they want without teasing, threatening or hurting;
• Use effective, non-physical discipline, such as loss of privileges; and
• Develop practical solutions with the school principal, teachers, counselors and parents of the children your child has bullied.

Writing Out the Old Home Recipes
Some of my grown children are asking me for our family recipes, so they can cook and bake in their own kitchens. It would be very easy for me to write them out on index cards and ship them off in the mail. But how much more fun would it be to make a little handmade booklet of family recipes, cooking hints, and little family remembrances to go with it?
I have some pretty green heavy stock paper. I can use this as a cover. I will fold it in half, to make it resemble a little booklet. Inside will be plain white paper, folded as well. I can staple this in the center to "bind" the book.
To have a little fun, I can title it something like, "Recipes from The White House," or "The Little Book of Cookery from The White House." [One must find ways of enjoying one's name when the situation arises. - gentle smiles.]
I have 12 common dinner recipes, several lunches, and a few breakfasts. To this, I will add some baking recipes, and economical snack ideas. I will also write an estimate of how much each recipe will cost.
Yesterday, I had full charge of my kitchen. (In other words, I did all the work alone.) I made my boys a nice lunch of homemade pizza. I cleaned the kitchen throughout the day. As the sun began to set, I asked one of them, "Will you be needing a baked good this evening?" He didn't know what I meant by that (smiles). So I translated, "Do you want me to bake something for you?" Well, of course He did! I made peanut butter, chocolate chip muffins. Then I told the boys I was off duty for the night and they were to have sandwiches or leftovers if they got hungry later. I walked out of that very clean kitchen, with the dim lamplight shining on those delicious muffins. . . These are the kinds of memories of home that my grown children miss.
I think it is more precious to take one's time creating things of lasting value that will be cherished. My book of family cookery will be humbly made with humble recipes. But it will take me a few weeks, as I sit by the window, in great-grandmother's rocking chair, and write out the history of our kitchen for the next generation.

This is a wonderful idea. My mother did this for all of 7 us kids over 35 years ago. I still use it constantly. Each time I reach for it I remember seeing her in the kitchen peeling or chopping or baking or frying something. =) Lori

I have a similar booklet from my mother. We did these in Vacation Bible School one year when my mother was our teacher. Our title was 'Tried and True Recipes'... I don't remember now, but I'm sure there was a Scripture link that helped us choose that 'Tried and True' title.
I treasure reading your notes on your blog!!
I'm 65 years young now & still remember making those recipes with my mother! I am instantly transported back to a small southern kitchen filled with love!

Handwritten recipes are the most precious kind, turning a simple recipe into a cherished heirloom. Love is the "secret ingredient" in so many family recipes.
- April 15, 2013 at 12:30 PM
That is such a wonderful idea. I'd like to do the same when my children are older and ready to leave our home. I'm already thinking of ideas - though my little ones are under 5 years old! haha. :-)

Hi Mrs. White!
I'm trying to catch up on some old posts that I missed. (Mostly didn't have time to read blogs during the months we were moving!) I LOVE this post! I have done something similar for my family, but I typed up the family recipes and put them in page protectors and in a binder. I love what you are putting together for your children! I have an idea though -- I think you should put together your book of recipes into something you could sell. I bet many of your readers would love to have a copy of your "Recipes from The White House!" :) I totally LOVE that name! ;) Yes, I agree -- it is fun to have a little fun with one's name! :) That is why I named my blog "Yes They're All Ours!" :)

We have come to the final step in this series of How to Create a Customized E-Learning Course. In my earlier posts, we looked at the first two steps -"The Action Plan" and the "Instructional Design Process". Today, I will be dealing with the final step – "Creating the Course."
You must be thinking that the final step must be simple because all the main work has been dealt with in the first two steps. Well, there is a lot more you need to know at this step. Here, you either make or break your course, it doesn't matter how great your outline or instructional strategy is, if it hasn't been executed to perfection in this stage.
Let's take a look at what this final stage is all about.
Players and their roles:
The final stage in Creating a customized E-learning course is all about team work. Helen Keller once said "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." This saying is apt because there is so much to do and many people are involved in creating the course. It is the focal point of the entire process.
There are five major or critical roles in designing and developing any eLearning course.
Before you begin developing your course, it is best to set standards on how you want to go about with the course. If the instructional designer brings out a new interaction or a new assessment somewhere in the middle of course development, it is likely to jam the production. So we need to standardize the format and have only one set of templates.
Standardization typically includes the Graphical User Interface (GUI) – how it will be throughout the course. Templates for presenting content and interactivities. The quizzing standards and last but not the least the overall look and feel of the course – making sure that the presentation is consistent in every screen.
E-learning Authoring Tools:
Deciding on the authoring tool is the main task at this stage. There are ample number of eLearning authoring tools in the market, such as Articulate Storyline, Articulate Studio, Adobe Captivate and Lectora. Ideally, the authoring tool is decided based on the on your content types, available skill-set, devices on which it has to be deployed, the budget and timelines. These rapid authoring tools are great for creating animations and interactions and adding audio to your elearning course.
For instance, if you are developing an elearning course using Articulate Studio, then here is what you need to do! Firstly, Articulate Studio is an easy to use authoring tool and runs as a plug in to Microsoft Power Point. So, you can create your storyboard using PowerPoint and import it into the tool. Then, you start to make them interesting with animations and functionality such as creating click on interactivities to retain learner attention. And finally, add quizzes and games to make the learning even more fun. It is so simple that literally any one can create a course in it!
And the best part of all is that these authoring tools are SCORM and AICC compliant, so much so you can upload it on any Learning Management System within seconds.

SCORM and LMS
SCORM, an acronym of Sharable Content Object Reference Model, is a software standard that manages files on an LMS. A Learning Management System (LMS), is a software platform that tracks, documents and delivers online courses.
Creating an eLearning course is not as easy as you think it is and can be a pain at times. Unless and until you have the right team to do the job for you, your course can be a perpetual mess both for you and your learner. In case you don't have the right team for this job, you can hire vendors who have expertise in this field. Outsourcing can not only reduce stress but also save cost and resources.
In this series, How to Create a Customized E-Learning Course, we have looked at the Action Plan, the Instructional Design Process and Creating the course. Hope you find these posts to be useful and informative.

Philadelphia is one of the cities that was most influential during the founding of the United States. With nearly 40 million visitors annually, Philadelphia's historical landmarks attract a lot of attention - but the Reading Terminal Market, a foodie's paradise, is the #1 most-visited location. When you visit this city, you'll see a great blend of an interesting past and a fun and vibrant present with great food, music, and concerts that make the city come alive.
The recent launch of Philadelphia's bike share program last year makes biking around the city fun and easy. Make sure to visit Philadelphia's vast number of historical landmarks during your stay, especially The Liberty Bell Center and the National Constitution Center. Independence Hall, Pennsylvania's old State House, where the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution were signed. You can also see Benjamin Franklin's home and get a taste for Colonial life. Art lovers will enjoy visiting the Philadelphia Museum of Art as well as The Barnes Foundation, which is walking distance away. Longwood Gardens is a horticultural display garden created by a Frenchman in the 19th century and is a lovely place to walk around. The Reading Terminal Market is a great place for foodies to go, with incredible fresh and local food that you can try.
There are so many great places to visit around Philadelphia. Escape a hot summer day by heading to the beach in Ocean City, New Jersey, which is just over an hour away, or head a little further south to Wildwoods, New Jersey, to experience the fun boardwalk atmosphere of Morey's Piers and Beachfront Water Parks. If you're interested in a historical day trip, the Historic American Revolution Trail of Greater Philadelphia is a great way to see more than just the most famous monuments. The Brandywine Battlefield Historic Site is also an interesting place to learn more about the Revolutionary War.
Head to the beautiful Pocono Mountains to hike in nature and see the "Niagara Falls of Pennsylvania," Bushkill Falls. You can also go whitewater rafting on the Lehigh River in the Poconos, which is a great option for families! The Philadelphia Craft Beer Trail is a fun way for beer fans to taste the best of the city's offerings.
Philadelphia has a lot of charming areas, and we are pleased to help you find the best place to stay. Whether your trip is long or short, we can help you find vacation rentals or short-term rentals throughout the city.
Old City, Society Hill and Queen Village are three lovely neighborhoods that are connected to each other in a mile-long line along the beautiful Delaware Riverpark, and were originally settled in the 17th century. Artists' galleries, cafes, restaurants, and nightclubs can all be found in this area, as well as charming rowhouses and cobblestone streets.
For a more urban feel, consider staying near Rittenhouse Square, which is the most high-end part of the city and full of glass highrises. The Square is known for its beautiful leafy trees and is a great place to relax in the summer.
Main Street is the most popular destination to go to for restaurants, bars, shopping, and nightlife - and it is also a historic district. This is a really fun place for young people to stay, but all ages can enjoy it equally.
Don't worry if you don't have a car during your visit to Philly - the city's public transportation makes all of the attractions quickly accessible. The downtown area is very easy to navigate by foot, or you can try Philly's bikeshare program. The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority is the fifth-biggest transit system in the United States, and operates a bus system, a trolley system, and a trolley commuter system. The Broad Street subway line and the Market-Frankford subway line are the two most widely used transit routes for navigating the most popular parts of the city.
Logan Square
Logan Square is at the intersection of modernity and antiquity, as contemporary high-rises mingle with historic homes on tree-lined streets. There are a handful of iconic attractions here, such as the Franklin Institute and the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University. Its parks and fountains make it a pretty urban hotspot, ideal for vacationers looking for the best that Philadelphia has to offer.
Powelton Village
This neighborhood is home to some of west Philadelphia's classic architecture from the mid- to late-19th-century. There are plenty of idyllic Victorian homes in this artistic neighborhood, sharing the space with Drexel University's myriad architectural styles. Go to Drexel Park to read a book or have a picnic—visitors are only limited by their imaginations in how they can use this green space to relax.
Callowhill is a young and artistic neighborhood on the east side of Philadelphia. It is known for its lively nightlife, drawing a young and energetic crowd. This town, in the midst of a revival, is transforming many of its vacant buildings into apartments and small businesses. Its Art Deco architecture earned it the distinction of a National Historic District, making it a fun place to mix the old and the new.
Rittenhouse Square
This neighborhood, known as one of the ritziest in Philadelphia, features beautiful parks and high-end shopping. Visitors and residents alike can enjoy a sunny day on the banks of the Schuylkill River or window shopping at the expensive boutiques on Walnut Street. For a unique—and expensive—dining experience, make a reservation at Volvér, a restaurant described as "theatrical." Choose from an eight-course or a twelve-course meal, featuring places from all over the world in one decadent night.
Several sites in Logan Square are on the National Register of Historic Places, such as the Arch Street Presbyterian Church, the Bell Telephone Company Building, and even Logan Square itself. The idea for Logan Square came from William Penn in 1680, though it did not begin to take its current shape until the 19th century. Take a stroll through the tree-lined streets and imagine yourself as an early American living in this historically-rich city.
There are a handful of museums and galleries worth visiting in this historic yet modern neighborhood. In fact, the mile-long stretch of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway has beautiful things to see, from fountains to museums. Easily walkable by foot, "America's Most Artistic Mile" can't be missed. Make sure to run up the "Rocky" steps and take a picture with the statue from this famous movie franchise!
Chances are good that you will work up quite an appetite after a day of exploring, especially if you run up the Rocky steps! For an informal meal in a beautiful setting, head over to the Rose Tattoo Café, a Victorian building with an eclectic menu and rooms full of flowers. For something a bit fancier, try Urban Farm Philadelphia for high-end steaks and an impressive drink menu.

My mother was only 25 when she found out she had cervical cancer. In moments my mother's life was completely changed. She was heartbroken and scared and this being a time when cancer treatments were still very new she was doubtful of good outcomes. Her doctors sat her down and told her that she would probably never have children after all was said and done.
But she got lucky. Or my sister and I got lucky.
She beat her cancer, that time around, and she managed to have both my sister and I later on in life. She had a blessed outcome from cervical cancer.
So for her, and because it is Cervical Cancer Awareness Week from October 16th – 20th, I had to take the time to talk about it. To think that with the advancements we have already since then her cancer could have been completely prevented.
When was the last time you had a PAP test? If you are overdue, like myself, then you should be joining me in making an appointment. Doing something small like a PAP test can be a HUGE factor in early detection.
Did you know that an abnormal pap test may be a result of the HPV virus? HPV can be prevented by getting vaccinated.
Since it will be National Cervical Cancer Awareness Week, your doctor might be holding PAP test and HPV vaccination clinics. Book that appointment. Take charge of your health, and ask your doctor the questions that concern you at the appointment you are going to be making. Your health and personal health education is important and you should ask someone that you trust: your family doctor.
Don't put things off anymore, for your health's sake.
So… tell me, when is your appointment date?

khali from Nepal
I work half a year on this platform, i proved myself on the good side, but literally a week after setting the rates, i started to delay 1-5 seconds, so it was not realistic to play, and this problem have my friends.
Hans from Romania
I heard good reviews about ... but I havent tried to work with them yet ... But all told that its nice.
Clausius from New Zealand
This broker like They will brazenly take your deposit, you willnt even have time to understand what happened. This happened to me, although Im an experienced trader. I expected much more, or faster execution.
Clergy max from Australia
I am very much dependable on my live economic calendar due to getting all significant information that I am getting from my trading platform AGEA. This valuable datebook at all times is providing me all imperative financial indicators that drive the whole market place. By using this calendar, I am able to trade in news with making profit. They are the best and reliable broker I ever trade in forex market.
Patrik from Netherlands
As for execution speed it is normal, like by other major brokers, but I like that over last year or something, there were no serious spread playing even under strong volatility. I like that on brexit they didn't deduct leverage and spread was adequate in comparison to others. So I can conclude that this is a stable broker with stable services
Roman from Israel
As for the first experience, I may say that terminal works too slowly in comparison with other brokers, and that is already alarming. Have already a small profit and will check how they process it, and after that I shall decide if it is a worthy broker.
Fabio from Spain
I use far not all instruments Agea offers, so I can tell just only for FOREX. Spreads here are one of the best, EA are available. Actual charts, there are no delays or laggs. You may choose different payments systems. It's good for me, cause it's very expensive to use bank transfer - not very big amounts. So I'm still with them.

Imagine standing at the tip of the earth, looking down into what could very well be its singed bowels, with nothing but pin drop silence all around you! Yes, the Grand Canyon National Park does have that sort of effect on you. It makes poets and philosophers of us all. And why not? The stark nakedness of red rock surfaces is a haunting testament to the destructive rage of the earth and the rich beauty all around points to the tenacity of life. In the colorful landscape painted by the chunky sequence of ancient rocks, time stands still. Visitors are transported back millions of years to an unknown and mysterious era.
The Grand Canyon National Park is one of the most visited parks of America. Each year, it hosts more than 4.5 million visitors. Area wise, it is huge with more than a million acres of land. The cavernous mouth is so big that it would take travelers two full days to get to the bottom of the canyon and back, if they were traveling on foot. By raft, you can easily spend weeks exploring the Grand Canyon and still have areas left over for next year's trip!
The Grand Canyon is not the deepest canyon in the world. But people love it because of the unmatched vistas it has to offer visitors to the rim. It is well known all over the world for its overwhelming size, intricate shapes and patterns and sheer beauty.
Visitors can reach the Grand Canyon national Park through the South or North Rim. The south is more accessible with public bus transportation and a limited airline service. You can get to the North Rim only through a shuttle service from the South. Besides, the North is shut off for a good part of the year due to the heavy snowfall that closes off the road that leads to it.
The best time to visit the Canyon is during early spring or late fall. At all other times of the year, the Park tends to get really crowded. More than 78% of visitors who come here view the Grand Canyon from the South, sitting in their cars. Smaller groups of people get to see it from the North, which is approximately a 1,000 feet higher than the south and lies diametrically opposite. Only an exclusive number of ardent adventurists have seen the inner canyon because it is open only to hikers, mule riders and river runners.
Conditions at the Grand Canyon are harsh and if you're into adventurous backpacking, you had better be in top physical condition. Extreme heat, scarcity of water, lack of physical comforts and isolation are to be expected. Trails become excruciating in summer. Yet, the beauty of the Grand Canyon is such that even small children, people with disabilities and senior citizens have hiked it easily!
The Grand Canyon has spectacular views and amazing adventure activities to suit every traveler's appetite. That's why millions of people who have visited the Grand Canyon remark that there is simply no other place in the world that looks and feels quite like it!

I don't claim that there is any scientific validity to Feng Shui, the ancient Chinese art of furniture placement. However, it seems as though there are spots in the house that seem to draw in scraps of paper, pencils, junk mail, paperclips, small coins, twist ties, old magazines, and the like. As I sorted the faded grocery receipts, already paid bills, and credit card offers, into piles to discard, destroy, and utterly destroy, I discovered mementos of the summer. Movie tickets, concert tickets, and other bits of paper symbolizing permission to enter a venue. These are things that I could have blogged about at the time but was feeling too lazy, too tired, or too busy to have bothered. Or perhaps I didn't really have enough to say about a particular event to flesh out an entire post. But at least I can gather them together and look fondly back.
Star Wars In Concert – May 28
I actually did mention this concert in a previous post. This was a traveling show that presented music (played live by an orchestra) from all six Star Wars movies, accompanied by a laser light show and scenes from the movies. I didn't know all of the pieces they played, as a number of them were from the prequels. But of the pieces I knew, they were spot on with the film score. An enjoyable evening of entertainment.
2010 San Diego County Fair – June 26
The fair was great fun. I didn't go on many rides. I mainly sampled some of the many outrageous treats available. I started with chocolate-covered bacon. It varied between too chocolatey and too bacony. After watching a presentation on camel's milk and riding the aerial people-mover, it was time for another snack. This turned out to be mushrooms and artichoke hearts, skewered, battered, and deep fried. They were good, although I preferred the artichokes to the mushrooms. After browsing the water-wise landscaping examples and the gadget booths, I had a cup of coffee and mini-doughnuts fresh from the doughnut machine. Such a different experience than the plastic-wrapped convenience-store variety. After wandering the art show, my final snacks were deep fried Oreos and a deep-fried Twinkie. The Oreos tasted like warm chocolate cake, but the flavor of the Twinkie was buried under its strawberry jam topping.
Hornblower Harbor Cruise – July 5
We have a weather condition here that we call June Gloom. I don't know the exact meteorology behind it, but what happens is that the coastal skies become overcast for most of the late spring and early summer. Now, I don't mind it. I used to live along the far northern coast of California when I was younger and overcast skies were nothing to throw a tantrum over. But, for some reason, that weather really just gets to a lot of people down here. Especially when it falls outside its scheduled calendar month. So people were not only down over the weather, they had to figure out what to call June Gloom when it happens in July. The answer was Summer Bummer.
You may be wondering what all this has to do with the harbor cruise. Other than the fact that the sun was mercifully not beating relentlessly down upon my head as it will do when given the chance, very little.
San Diego Symphony Summer Pops: Music from Final Fantasy – July 22
Ever since I attended Video Games Live the summer before last, the San Diego Symphony has mailed me postcard after postcard describing upcoming shows. Most of these postcards I've politely read, though the shows haven't quite been interesting enough for my taste. However, when I read the postcard that said Music from Final Fantasy was on the schedule, I squealed like a schoolgirl and then bought tickets immediately. Or the squealing and buying may have happened in the opposite order. Or in both orders, now that I think on it. Regardless, once the date of the show rolled around, I was there on the grass of the Embarcadero, on a cool and calm summer night. The show was a delight. The composer himself, Nobuo Oematsu, was there, and the orchestra played many well known selections, such as "Man with the Machine Gun," "Intro and Bombing Mission", "Chocobo," "Jenova," and of course "One Winged Angel."
San Diego Comic-Con – July 21,22,24
It's no secret that my enthusiasm for the riot of fandom that is Comic-Con has waned a bit over the many (okay, several) years that I've been attending. I was considering sitting this year out, but circumstances intervened and I found myself accompanying a party of adventurers through said riot. We picked up our badges on Wednesday evening, also known as preview night, since the exhbit hall opens for a few hours to allow a sneak peek at the wonders within. Since only those with four-day memberships are invited to preview night, it is a good time to do so as it is slightly less crowded. I was on my own on Thursday and at least got to attend one of the panels that I was looking forward to, and even got in a bit of shopping, before leaving for the Summer Pops concert. On Friday, I was otherwise occupied and couldn't attend, but on Saturday, the adventurers and I assembled for a second foray. We accomplished surprisingly little that day save for another survey of the exhibit hall. Discouraged, the party disbanded, but I and the remaining hardcore trooper were able to straggle into Hall H to witness Kevin Smith's presentation. This was due more to luck than any sort of plan, but at least it made up for the rest of the day. I decided to leave on a high note and took Sunday off. And as for next year? No, I don't think so, although there is one Comic-Con experience I've yet to partake of: parading about in costume.
Golden State Excursion, San Diego Short Line – July 31
I learned of the San Diego Railroad Museum through their booth at the San Diego County Fair. But it was not until several weeks later that I would be enticed to visit. After arising exceptionally early one fine Saturday morning, I gathered up my favorite shopping companion and headed out to the Santee Swap Meet to browse through stall after stall of junk. Unfortunately, most of it was junk. Afterward, at brunch, we observed that it was still early in the day and that we could easily do something else. I mentioned the Railroad Museum, and after a bit of mobile Internet research, we learned that it was in Campo, a small town in the sparsely populated eastern side of San Diego county. Something of a drive. And there was something else: the museum maintains a small portion of the original California and Arizona railway, on which it runs regular tour excursions. Now that would be worth the drive. So we set out and arrived just in time for the ride, which was a pleasant way to pass an hour or so. Upon returning, we got to examine several antique passenger cars, a mail-sorting car, and a caboose. I only wish that we could have arrived earlier in the day, as there was an entire yard of engines and cars that we didn't have time to see.
Legoland Parking – August 8
Legoland is an interesting theme park. Its centerpiece is LEGO models of famous buildings, surrounded with careful landscaping, numerous gift shops, and plenty of rides (some of which appears to have been creatively adapted from industrial machinery such as auto lifts and industrial robots. ) There's also now an aquarium and water park, though these are technically separate attractions (much as the California Adventure is separate from Disneyland.) However, the most interesting thing about Legoland is that one can obtain a "Shopper's Pass" which will admit one free of charge to the park for up to an hour. This is plenty of time to visit both the Big Store and the pick a brick shop. Yes, I suppose I am a LEGO addict.
And the summer's not quite over– who knows what adventures are still in store?

SCR Frequently Asked Questions
To further assist with the understanding of how Hino's SCR unit works, we have compiled a list of the most commonly asked questions and their respective answers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Click or touch the questions below to display their answers.
Where can I buy DEF?
DEF is available from your Hino dealer. It is also available at most truck stops and fueling stations across Canada and USA.
How much DEF will the Hino engine use?
Hino's testing results show that the engine will use between 1-2% DEF for each litre of fuel consumed. The exact percentage will vary based on how the truck is used.
Will the exhaust gas from an SCR truck smell like rotten eggs or other chemicals?
The SCR system does not produce any unusual or strange smells.
Will Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) have any effect on the oil change intervals?
No, there is no effect on recommended oil change intervals.
I heard that DEF freezes at -11.1 degrees Celcius; will this affect vehicle operation or vehicle emissions?
DEF starts to get slushy at around -11 degrees Celsius (12 degrees Fahrenheit). The Hino SCR system circulates engine coolant to the DEF reservoir which warms the DEF at low temperatures. Vehicle operation is not affected at low temperatures and DEF injection will proceed following warm-up at low temperatures.
Does DEF smell? I'm worried about storing it in our warehouse.
DEF contains 67.5% water (H20) and 32.5% urea solution which has an aroma similar to diluted ammonia. Since DEF is an aqueous solution, even if it spills onto the foor, it can be easily cleaned up with tap water. DEF is considered non-hazardous; in fact, agricultural grade urea is used as fertilizer.
What is the size of the DEF tank on Hino trucks?
The DEF tank capacity is 19 litres.
How far will the truck run on one tank of DEF?
Similar to fuel economy, it depends upon vehicle operating conditions. A truck achieving a fuel economy of 22-28 L/100 km (10-13 MPG) is estimated to run 3900 km-5000 km (2400-3100 miles).
What will happen if I run out of DEF?
The EPA2010 regulations require that the engine output be de-rated if the vehicle runs out of DEF. Hino has incorporated a comprehensive onboard driver warning system to advise when DEF levels are getting low. If the truck runs completely out of DEF, it will continue to operate at reduced power levels. In the case of an emergency, DEF will be available for purchase through the HinoWatch Roadside Assistance Program.
Does SCR infuence fuel economy?
Because SCR reduces NOx downstream of the engine, it allows the engine design to be optimized for maximum fuel efficiency. Hino is anticipating a fuel economy improvement of 3 – 5% versus the previous model.
Will an SCR-equipped truck drive any differently?
The drivability of a 2011 Hino truck equipped with SCR will be the same for the 258 and 268 models and will be improved for 338 and 358 models, compared to the previous models, due to an improvement in engine performance.
Does SCR require additional maintenance?
Hino's SCR system is designed for long term durability and reliability. The only additional maintenance requirement is the replacement of a DEF sediment filter every 360,000 kms (220,000 miles).
Will the DEF tank or system components rust?
Hino uses a plastic resin material for the DEF tank and piping, eliminating corrosion concerns.
Does DEF evaporate at high temperatures?
DEF should be stored in a closed vessel to prevent evaporation and contamination. It should be stored between -12 degrees and 32 degrees Celsius (10 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit).
Since DEF changes NOx into H2O and N2, how will the water be emitted from the after treatment system?
Because of the high operating temperatures of the exhaust system, water vapour will be produced and will exit via the truck's exhaust system. In colder temperatures, the water vapour may condense and may be visible as droplets and water vapour.
Do we have any statistics to back up the claims that SCR systems use less fuel, are more durable and will have fewer DPF regenerations than one of our competitor's Massive EGR?
Because this is new technology, we have not yet collected and analyzed competitive data.
Fuel consumption is not reduced by simply installing SCR, but because of higher fuel combustion efficiency in the engine itself, overall fuel efficiency is improved.
For Hino, the ability to meet strict emissions and fuel efficiency guidelines affordably without compromising drivability and performance is paramount. The ability to reduce emissions to near-zero levels distinguishes SCR as the only emission control technology that is as good for your business as it is for the environment. The net result is a more cost effective vehicle that is friendlier to the environment!
