We all know him. Love him or hate him, Ralph Nader has shined for over five decades as one of America's greatest leaders. Instead of holding public office or becoming CEO of a major corporation, Nader has led his people through mostly the democratic means he strives for on a daily basis.
Ralph Nader was born on February 27, 1934 to Nathra and Rose Nader. Nader proved to be a determined and excelling student, and went on to attend two Ivy League colleges, Princeton University and Harvard Law School. He became a successful attorney, displaying the clear leadership qualities of being able to stand up for what one believes is just as well as defending one's clients.
Our hero rose to immediate fame and national prominence in 1965 through the highly eye opening, automobile expose, Unsafe at Any Speed. The noteworthy work of muckraking journalism became an instant classic, enlightening ordinary American citizens to politicians in Washington on how the automobile industry, particularly General Motors, were producing unsafe vehicles for the American public.
The fame paved the way for further legislation regarding automobile safety as well as Nader's own career as a "Consumer Advocate." This self-proclaimed title has made him the prominent American leader, people recognize him as. He began to form various non-profit organizations supporting consumer protection and other interests of the people. With such prestige, Nader became a major leader in social activism. It is safe to say much of his leadership style has been democratic. However, this is certainly not true of all his organizations. With close inspection of their structures, one can see that Nader exhibits other forms of leadership as well.
By the early 1970s, Ralph Nader had inspired hundreds of young men and women to become activists and increase their participation in the political process. These devout followers of the consumer advocate came to be known as "Nader's Raiders." These apprentices fronted dozens of Nader's non-profit organizations and interest research groups, researching anything to do with governmental, corporate, or congressional corruption, amongst new ways to protect the American consumer at all times.
As a leader, Nader sets himself as a great role model for his employees or co workers, depending on the organization. He is efficient, determined, and respectable; qualities necessary for a strong leader. In terms of specific styles, Nader displays democratic leadership because he makes his best attempts to listen to all of his workers' opinions. In many ways his organizations are free rein. Nader creates an organization and then leaves the decisions up to the members themselves, where they run mostly everything, while he just oversees their conduct and behavior. His organizations could be seen as self-managed teams in this sense as well; small groups focus on specific issues, with one issue for a specific group. One group will take an environmental issue, while another may focus on health concerns, and yet another on economic policies, and so on. Finally, another leadership style the man demonstrates is one that is quite ironic and even shocking, considering his constant strive for democracy, rather than autocracy or rule of the many, rather than rule of the few. But, there is a reason why the documentary film capturing his life and career is humorously titled, An Unreasonable Man. Nader is a hardliner and must stick with his first and foremost objective: making sure the United States is a safe place for its inhabitants. Therefore, Nader is strict in making sure his workers are creating nothing less than perfect protection for American citizens and consumers. Alas, disagreements on how to deal with certain issues have led to the firing of employees. But, after all he wants to make sure he gets the job done.
Clearly, Ralph Nader's diverse, but mostly democratic leadership style has been effective and has created a precedent for more and more leaders, businesses, and organizations. Before Nader, there was no such thing as consumer advocacy. Now, there are hundreds of thousands of such workers, most working for Nader himself. Without a doubt, he created this environment and now it is everywhere. Government agencies and businesses are far more careful than they were four or five decades ago. This is a direct result of Nader's involvement. On a final note, in 1974 Ralph Nader was ranked the 4th most influential person in the country by the U.S. News and World Report; most likely the only person on the list that contributes millions each year to the over four dozen non-profit organizations that he founded.

Ralph Nader: An American Hero

This is our 7th visit and it is excellent. All credit to Mr & Mrs Tew and Rose Bastin. Looking forward to our 8th visit.
June 2018
A beautiful house that felt clean and looked after, a perfect mix of old style with modern facilities. Very tastefully furnished and decorated and the view was amazing - it was just perfect for our family gathering, thank you!
May 2018
Excellent Holiday. Our queries were dealt with and resolved immediately. Will definitely book again.
April 2018
Perfect place to stay Thank you for the welcome pack and the beautiful daffodils which were in tight bud when we arrived and lasted all week
September 2017
Dower House remains a wonderful property in an exceptional location and we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay as always.
August 2017
We really enjoyed our stay as we say the only thing to be improved upon is to regularly replace all bed linen.
Thank you very much for your feedback which we've passed to the owners. They have replied saying that linen and quilts are replaced regularly at this property. However, as a result of the feedback, the owners have replaced a number of quilts which are now 'pocketed' which will stop quilt filling 'bunching' which appears to have been a problem.

July 2017
Unfortunately there was building work / re-roofing occurring on the cottage directly opposite / below the Dower house. This meant that the view was obscured by scaffolding & that we were woken up early each morning by builders. I understand that this work had been going on for some time as other residents were complaining to the property owners. While I understand that building does take place in the village, It would have been good to have been warned of this, as we may have chosen another cottage.
June 2017
I have used Toad Hall Cottages several times and have always found the properties to be even better than expected. Customer service is excellent and very efficient.
June 2017
5th visit to the Dower house says it all. Excellent property well maintained standards are high
May 2017
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Standard of accommodation excellent, very comfortable and well equipped cottage.
February 2017
A superb property, beautifully appointed and very cosy.
May 2016
my wife and i thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dower House, which we both feel is the best UK property we have rented to date especially for the quality of the property, the fixtures and fittings and the value for money for just two people to stay there. Will hope to book and stay there again. It really felt like a home from home to us.
February 2016
Really lovely cozy cottage, with great views! Loved the kitchen which was very well equipped. The heating and wood burning stoves kept us warm through a cold February stay. Dittisham is also a great little village with a lot to do in the area. Also like the layout of the cottage - the small steps were fine for our 20 month old daughter and we could close the doors in the various rooms, instead of using stair gates. Can't wait to come and stay again. Good off road parking for our two cars as we were two families staying. Having 3 bathrooms was also very handy!
December 2015
Our 4th visit, and Dower House never fails to impress from its views to the housekeeping.
August 2015
Great holiday and would use the property again.
July 2015
The Dower House was a lovely comfortable and well appointed house for our family group. A great location with beautiful views and easy access to the ferry so we didn't have to get the car out to go to Dartmouth and Greenway House. A couple of things we thought would make The Dower House even more comfortable: Nests of tables in the lounges to use for drinks when sitting on the sofas Cushions for the outdoor chairs A washing basket for taking washing out of the washing machine A bit more cutlery so we didn't run short before setting the dishwasher off.
May 2015
Lovely house with new sofas and carpets, fabulous kitchen with top quality fittings, perhaps another tv in the sitting room for when fully occupied but no matter, the view from the terrace and quite village are just a lovely, hope to return next year.
May 2014
This is a superb house in a fabulous location. Breakfast on the terrace overlooking the river is a special treat for us. The house is beautifully furnished and equipped and there was nothing we needed that wasn't there. The bedrooms are large and the bathrooms are lovely with great showers and baths. The village is peaceful and the Ferry Boat Inn serves great food. Our stay has been blessed by the best of weather (24 degrees) and we can only give this house, the location and the area our highest recommendation.
March 2014
A very fabulous stay, lovely house and area. This is the second stay we stayed. I hope there is a third!
March 2014
Accommodation was very well equipped. Lovely setting. Nice sitting on the terrace watching the sails.
March 2014
Fantastic house, fantastic spot. Hope to be back soon.
March 2014
Sat out on the terrace every day. If only the view was as good at home.
March 2014
Absolutely lovely house and a wonderful two weeks. We'll be back soon.
October 2013
First class accommodation and everything we needed for a cosy, comfortable stay. Appreciated the welcome pack and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in such a lovely house and location.
July 2013
A wonderful house in a superb setting. Perfect for families or couples.

Ten Cent Beer Night
I missed this the other day, but on Wednesday, Page 2 ran a long, fascinating story by Paul Jackson about Cleveland's infamous Ten Cent Beer promotion. The details of that are good enough, but there's a lot of Cleveland history thrown in as well.

Oh how I wish! Yes this cupcake is really fat free but not quite as tasty as one might hope.
Part of my range of mini glass painted pictures in rustic wood frames for the fair I am exhibiting at on Sunday, 17th, July at Chevening Estate in support of EllenorLions Hospice.

This afternoon before heading to the winery for the Pina family Christmas Eve I downloaded the memory card from Jason's camera. I was pleased to find these pictures taken over the month of December as we got ready for Christmas.
On Friday the 10th, I decided to decorate Christmas cookies with Grace and Cooper while Jason and Emma took in a show. Grammie and Grampa joined us for cookies and dinner, and Emma and Jason made it home in time to decorate a cookie or two.
Years ago Maria gave my parents a stuffed Santa from Canada. Each year the kids look forward to him coming out of storage and taking pictures with him.
Last weekend we finally decorated the tree!
Last night we finally hung up all the stockings for Santa Claus. My great-grandmother made the first one when my mom was a baby. My grandmother made ones for my dad when they got married and then for John and I when we were born. My mother carried on the tradition making stockings for Jason, Tracy and each of the grandkids. Traditionally the stockings aren't done until the baby's 2nd Christmas so Henry's should be ready next year.
I think it is so fun to have all 12 of us here at the house for the weekend!

How to know if your team is having teamwork problems:
-Arguments arise regularly during meetings
-A work team fails to reach consensus.
-Team productivity wanes in comparison to individual output.
-Employees make themselves unavailable for group meetings by taking a sick day or booking appointments during those times.
Feelings and thoughts are probably not being heard and people don't feel safe. Most likely, people feel they need more encouragement, more commitment from everybody to the team vision and for people to own their responsibility and mistakes.
You may feel the team needs family therapy. That sounds about right! Sometimes you may get so confused and tangled up, you need someone to help untangle the mess. That's when it is time to call us! We are organization development coaches AND family therapists!

It's virtually incalculable how many times the FBI has blatantly protected Hillary Clinton throughout her email investigation.
Not only did the DOJ and the FBI handout and facilitate immunity deals like hotcakes, but it has now been discovered that the FBI allowed two Hillary Clinton aides, Cheryl Mills an Heather Samuelson, to destroy their laptops.
Bob Goodlatte (R – Virginia) sent a letter on behalf of the House Judiciary Committee to Attorney General Lynch.
Here's a partial transcript of the letter from the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee…
"As part of the Judiciary Committee's ongoing oversight of Secretary Clinton's unauthorized use of a private email server during her tenure as Secretary of State, the Justice Department (DOJ) provided in camera review' of certain immunity agreements. After a specific request from the Committee, based on references made in the immunity agreements to certain "side agreements," DOJ subsequently provided in camera review of those "side agreements" between DOJ, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and Beth Wilkinson, the lawyer representing both Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson. Like many things about this case,these new materials raise more questions than answers. Please provide a written response to the below questions and make DOJ staff available for a briefing on this matter no later than October 10, 2016.
1. Why did the FBI agree to destroy both Cheryl Mills' and Heather Samuelson's laptops after concluding its search?
2. Doesn't the willingness of Ms. Mills and Ms. Samuelson to have their laptops destroyed by the FBI contradict their claim that the laptops could have been withheld because they contained non-relevant, privileged information? If so, doesn't that undermine the claim that the side agreements were necessary?
7. Please explain why DOJ agreed to limit their search of the Mills and Samuelson laptops to a date no later than January 31, 2015 and therefore give up any opportunity to find evidence related to the destruction of evidence or obstruction of justice related to Secretary Clinton's unauthorized use of a private email server during her tenure as Secretary of State.
8. Why was this time limit necessary when Ms. Mills and Ms. Samuelson were granted immunity for any potential destruction of evidence charges?
9. Please confirm whether a grand jury was convened to investigate Secretary Clinton's unauthorized use of a private email server. Disclosure is authorized under Fed. R. Crim. P. 6(e)(3)(A)(i) and (e)(3)(D)."
You can read the entire letter here.
How much more evidence does the Department of Justice and the FBI need to reopen this case?
Sadly, the answer is there is NO amount of evidence that will cause them to reopen the case. If Hillary Clinton herself came forward and admitted everything we know to be true, you can rest assured that nothing would happen to her, even then.

text: Tiger Woods Loses One, Wins One TAG Heuer backs scandal-plagued golfer; Golf Digest backs off By Harry Kimball, Newser Staff Posted Dec 24, 2009 3:42 PM CST 13 comments Comments A Tag Heuer ad featuring Tiger Woods. (AP Photo) View 1 more image (Newser) – Golf Digest has distanced itself—temporarily, the magazine says—from Tiger Woods, in a sign that his escapades have seriously damaged the golfer's cachet. Woods' name will remain on the masthead, but his instructional columns will be on hiatus as long as he is. The move is shocking because a beleaguered athlete's own sports community is usually a main source of support, the Los Angeles Times observes. A contributing factor may have been the magazine's latest cover, printed before the scandal broke, which features "10 Tips Obama Can Take From Tiger." Meanwhile, after TAG Heuer appeared to be preparing to drop the golfer, the watchmaker posted a note on its website reading, "TAG Heuer stands with Tiger Woods," the Daily Mirror reports.

At times in the past, I had opened a can of tomato paste, used the one tablespoons the recipe called for, and wondered, "Now what am I going to do with the rest of the can?" I'd stick in the fridge until I saw gray fuzz peeking out of the can and then dump it. It didn't take this happening too many time, before I got smart. Now, I put a sheet of wax paper on a plate, make little tomato paste blobs on it that are about one tablespoon and freeze it overnight.
In the morning, I peel off the frozen blobs and put them in a labelled freezer bag. When I need some for a recipe, I just take out what I need and defrost it in the microwave. I do this with chipotle pepper in adobo sauce and thai green curry paste as well.

Let the Summer Begin
Tuesday was my last final exam, the summer has officially begun for all of us. (Never mind the fact that I will be taking 9 credit hours in June.) We are looking forward to a summer jam-packed with fun and exciting adventures. With our calendar so full, I'm afraid it will zoom by, but we are going to try to savor each moment.
I won't be able to blog for a couple of weeks. Don't worry, I will fill you in...

I didn't really want to post this emo looking study on its own, but it's all I've got to show, so have it. It was to work out some lighting for something else entirely (the something else is work related and un-bloggable). Sometimes I find it useful to make a quick drawing completely unrelated to what I am working on to figure out shapes/atmosphere/colours/lighting, it removes the pressure, helps me loosen up, and is an excuse to work on something fun. Sometimes those drawings turn out nicely, sometimes they turn into sad emo soldier in the rain.

All of our many blessing.
How often do we do something, or receive something without realizing the effort that went into it so that it could become possible. Who helped us first. What did someone else do before we got there, or maybe something that we didn't realize that they had helped us with. Many times in my own life people do things for me and go on with out saying a word. Maybe it is simple maybe I notice or maybe I don't. but I know that every one is trying to help others. and as we follow our saviors example and do those thing he commanded. We love one another! By doing so we grow closer to our lord and savior Jesus Christ. Oh how I am grateful for his sacrifice. making it possible for me to return to live with my family once again. I know that he lives, and guides us each and everyday.
