Girasole is the Italian for sunflower. This is a special (nearly opened) sunflower for a special little girl who has been "once around the sun".
I'll have to go back again on Monday and visit to see if the chrysanthemum sunflower has opened fully. I saw one two weeks ago, behind Mt Trocchio, but didn't photograph it. It looked like a huge pompom, and was so spectacular that it was all I could do to keep my eyes on the road. The particular beauty of the one above is that visiting the flower has a compulsory cup of tea and a chat attached...
Today I am grateful for daffodils and sunflowers.

Teachers to discuss industrial action
A mass meeting was due to be held on Monday to discuss the pay freeze proposed by the States Employment Board, but it has now been put off for a few weeks.
Head of the Jersey Teachers' Association – the local NUT branch – Anne Southern said that national officials were due to meet the Chief Minister.
She explained that they had hoped to hear what Senator Ian Gorst had to say before holding the meeting, but he had cancelled and so they had deferred the mass meeting.

With Mercedes unveiling its E-Class Cabriolet in time for the Geneva Motor Show, tuner of Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes-AMG products Brabus has now turned its attention to another of the three-pointed star's four-seater convertibles; in this case, the Mercedes-AMG C 63 S Cabriolet.
In Brabus fashion, more is given to where there already was plenty – the C 63 S Cabriolet's 4.0 litre biturbo V8 goes from its stock 510 hp and 700 Nm output figures to the breathed-upon 650 hp at 5,800 rpm and 820 Nm of torque between 1,750 rpm and 4,500 rpm in 650 Cabrio guise.
The Brabus PowerXtra B40S kit, as the engine upgrade is called in full, encompasses both hardware and software changes for the goal of increased engine output. The twin turbochargers are swapped for units with larger compressors, with each getting a special turbocharger core assembly and reinforced axial bearings.
An auxiliary Brabus PowerXtra module is added to the standard ECU, thus providing its own maps for the electronic boost pressure limiter, injection and ignition. Together with the hardware upgrades, they combine to increase the 4.0 litre biturbo V8's outputs to the aforementioned levels for a 0-100 km/h time of 3.7 seconds, while top speed is now electronically limited to 320 km/h.
For those who want added sound but without the greater fury, Brabus also offers an all-stainless steel sport exhaust system with electronically controlled flaps, available for sale without the engine tuning. Controllable from within the cabin, the driver can choose between a more subtle sound with the 'Coming Home' mode, and a sportier sound with the exhaust flaps open.
To better harness the even more powerful cabriolet's performance, an optional coilover suspension kit is optionally available for the 650 Cabrio, which works with the standard Ride Control adaptive dampers. Such configured, the suspension offers three damper settings, along with ride height that can be lowered between 20 mm and 40 mm. It can be set independently for the front and rear axles too.
Also available for the Brabus 650 Cabrio are the Brabus Monoblock R Platinum Edition wheels, measuring 9 x 20 inches in front and 10.5 x 20 inches at the rear. The black-painted, forged double spoke wheels are mated to 255/30R20 front and 285/30R20 rear tyres, from either Continental, Pirelli or Yokohama.
Interior upholstery also gets the Brabus touch, where black leather with azure blue elements adorning the 650 Cabrio. Additionally, aluminium pedals and door-lock pins add to the sporting character, as do carbon trim elements along with a Brabus speedometer dial that goes up to 340 km/h.
The Brabus 650 Cabrio is available as either a complete vehicle, or built upon an existing Mercedes-AMG C 63 S Cabriolet in full or in stages.

By choosing prepare2plan, it allows for smooth installation with predictability, stability and no additional surprises, allowing you to get up and running with Oracle PBCS quicker and for a fixed fee.
Tailored to you, prepare2plan is our standard, fixed-fee implementation methodology, which typically applies when the scope and objectives of the project are clearly defined from the outset. The requirements are clear and are unlikely to change, there's no (or maybe just a little) need for flexibility in scope, and the deliverables for the duration of the project and/or the costs are known up front:
Based on our discussions, this is the provision of Oracle PBCS. We review and agree on the scope of your project, providing a clear framework for how the project will be delivered. From there, we prepare a detailed plan for the remainder of the project, capturing functional and technical design decisions related to the software system being implemented.
Information gathered during the Functional Design Workshops in the Project Design phase, is used to configure the non-production environment. A series of workshops are then conducted to demonstrate the standard functionality (as configured in the non-production environment) and validate that system behaviour is as expected. Any refinements to the configurations are identified, prioritised, entered and reviewed during subsequent workshop sessions.
The validate phase is used to conduct an end-to-end review of the final solution including any adjusted configurations, integrations, extensions and customer legacy data.
During the transition, the configuration that was validated during the Validation phase is moved to the production environment and customer legacy data is loaded, reconciled and validated.
The Realisation phase marks the last phase of the implementation and the beginning of the system support cycle. During this phase, system use is monitored, necessary actions taken in response to issues raised by users, and a hand off conducted to the team responsible for the ongoing customer relationship. The phase culminates with acceptance of the new system by the customer and closing out of the contract and project management processes by the project manager.
Companies of all sizes trust us to advise, deliver, support and maintain their systems. We know everyone's different and that one size doesn't always fit all, which is why we tailor the prepare2plan methodology for you.
Prepare2plan is the ideal choice for those in the mid-market; it's affordable, rapidly deployable, easy to learn, low risk and provides you with specific modules tailored for your industry. Prepare2plan gives you:

Troy has been doing so well! I feel like maybe I need to stop & pinch myself from time to time, that's how wonderful he's doing! Over the past few weeks, he has just blossomed. :) He is talking so much more & I know he's meaning the things he's saying. He's saying 2, sometimes 3 words at a time. He did something yesterday morning & this morning that just warmed my heart & soul. When he wakes up each morning, I can hear him rustling around & playing "pee-pie" with his monkey & giraffe. But yesterday & today, he started saying "Mama" as soon as he woke up. He doesn't get out of his bed yet, so he sits there until someone comes to get him, which is usually me. When I get to him he raises his little arms & says "be", which means get me. I had myself convinced that he was just saying "Mama" because he could or was asked to. But now he will say "Mama" & look around for me. He has been saying "Dada" & "Chancey" for well over a year now, & he knew who they were. I worked with him daily, showing him their pictures & just talking to him. I have a picture of myself as well & I show it to him & tell him that's Mama. But he didn't seem to get that I was that person in the picture. I guess I was wrong! Because if my husband says, "tell Mama hi", he will look at me, wave, & say "hi!" Once he even said, "Hi...Mama!"
I've been working so hard with him to get him where he is. It may seem like a slow progress to some, but to me it's a HUGE accomplishment! He's so attentive. He seems so eager to learn. In fact, if he so much as glances over & sees a book or his flash cards, he wants you to read it/quiz him over & over & over. He thinks it's a game instead of work. I am pleased that he likes it, but you can only read a book so many times in one sitting...
He learned 2 more animal sounds over the past week. So now he can tell you what sounds 16 animals make. He's learning to use his words instead of whining, too. The hardest thing about his whining is not the noise, it's not knowing what he wants. I'm trying to get him to understand that & I think he's getting it. For example, he is completely obsessed with water. If he sees it, hears it, or thinks he can get in it, he wants it! If you've ever seen 'Your Baby Can Read', then you know that in Volume 1 it shows a hippopotamus & the hippo is in the water. He knows when that segment is coming & he'll rub his hands over his stomach & say "UUUNNHH." I have tried to tell him that the hippo is in water. I've tried telling him that the hippo is taking a bath. I've even learned the sign for water (placing three fingers on your chin). Nothing seemed to help. So I decided that maybe I should rub my hands over my stomach & say "bath." After doing that for a few days, he can now say bath. He still rubs his hands over his stomach when he says it, but atleast he can say bath instead of just whining. Wish I would've done that to begin with, but hey, hindsight is 20/20. When the speech pathologist came, he said that maybe I should also try to teach him sign language just for the words he can't say. So when I tried the sign for water, he was so confused. He knows where his chin is, so when I would do the sign, he would point to his chin & say "chin." He had no idea why I was showing him water & pointing to my chin. Teaching him sign language may be confusing him, I really don't know. The signs that I've tried teaching him have made him look at me with a puzzled look & it gets us no where. I don't know. I know kids younger than him that can sign, so I know he's not too young. He's talking, we understand him, he's getting his point accross. I want him to be able to talk & sign, but I don't want to confuse him. So, to add sign language or not to, that is the question.
He just amazes me every second of everyday. I think he has taught me so much more than I can ever teach him. God knew what He was doing when He gave me Troy. He's such a blessing & I am continuously thanking God for him. Words can never describe the love that I feel for my boys, BOTH of them!
My life as a super busy wife & a mother to 3 PERFECT children: Chancey, Troy, & Mackenna. Chancey married his high school sweethearts in January. Troy is 7 & just happens to have Down syndrome. He is a handsome ray of sunshine. Mackenna is 3. She is a brilliant, beautiful, spit fire. This blog is about my wonderful, blessed life. Hope you enjoy. God bless!

To sign or not to sign?

So for transferring our bikes, what ended up happening was Sister H from Concord drove the Sisters and she has a bike rack, so she picked up my bike from the W's the night before. Then the day of transfers we took the wheels off of Elder B's bike and it was able to fit in the trunk of her minivan along with our suitcases. The W's also wrote Elder B and I goodbye cards and they were way nice! Concord was a good ward with great families.
So yes, my new area is Huntersville and I am with Elder S who lives in Layton Utah!!! So that was super funny and is probably the top question we get after where I'm from: "did you know each other before coming out?!" The answer is no, and we don't even have any mutual friends, but we did play against each other's soccer teams when I was with Coach Cloward :) He goes home after this transfer (5 weeks from now!) and I will likely be taking over the area so I'm trying to learn it quick!
Also in the area is Elder L (who was Elder Z's companion for 2 transfers up in Boone), and Elder K from Kannapolis!!! Haha it was pretty funny, because we used to be in the same district but different areas, now we're in different districts but the same area!
Our district includes the Mooresville Elders and Sisters (one of the Mooresville sisters came in this transfer and is getting trained), while Elder K's (who's their district leader) includes the Lake Norman Elders and Sisters. The lake Norman Elders include Elder G, who came out with me and was in my MTC district :) We do live together though and that is fun :)
This ward is fantastic! We have met lots of the members and they are all super nice!!! Elder S says it's very similar to a Utah ward as the members are young families with kids and moved here from out west. Our ward mission leader is Brother K and he is so funny! He reminds me of Andrea ;) He gives all the missionaries nick names. Elder K's is "Elder K-nibb" (pronounces the K). Elder L's is Prince Williams. Elder S's is Elder Simon (like the lion kings Simon and Pumba). Mine is Mini-muff because he said I look like I'm 10, but I'm a stud muffin :)
So as far as Huntersville itself, it's been a very hard week! Huntersville is the smallest (or close to the smallest) area in the mission, and it's also quite well to do. Also, Huntersville has been very slow recently and the teaching pool is very small.
Elder S is great and because he has one transfer left, we resolved to do like another companionship did, where the Senior companion taught the other companion all about the area and then "handed off the reins" to the younger. So we're going to try that out.
All of this means I'm going to have to really start getting comfortable being uncomfortable. I'm going to take the lead in contacting, planning, goal setting, and pretty much everything else. We also want to work on obedience because there were some times this last week where we could have done better and been more purpose driven. I've been feeling pretty down because of that. I really have room to improve. Like Elder Klebingat said in conference "Selective obedience brings selective blessings." This experience has taught me the power of prayer and forgiveness though and I think it will help me throughout the rest of my mission, starting today. I talked with the Zone leaders yesterday on the phone and they encouraged me to work through these trials and to work to get Huntersville back on its feet. So it's rough, but like the scriptures and the prophets promise, "We fear no man, for God is with us."
I'm so sorry to hear about Dad! Food poisoning sounds rough! Speaking of food poisoning, I have a great story! Last night us 4 elders visited a super nice couple from Napoli who love the church and the missionaries. Elder K and I hadn't met them yet so we visited. One of the things we did there was eat what's called a "black egg." It's a delicacy in their culture! The pictures tell it best:
(There was a short video that shows the actually eating of the delicacy but no one wants to watch it,
believe me. -Zac's mom)
Thanks so much for all your support! Life is good here in North Carolina, and it should be getting much better with faith and work ;) Love you lots!
Elder Zac Branch :)

dear members of the national,
thank you for making one of the most heartbreaking and epic albums i've heard in a very long time. it feels very much the same as when i am playing the piano and am unable to verbalize emotions... like it suddenly has a place to flow. it finally has a language to speak it.
dam breaks.
and i cry like a baby.
i'm an emotional woman. and this album underlines it and puts it in boldface all caps print.
and makes me unashamed of that.
i will be buying this at the first moment i have on the 11th of may.
today is the last day to hear it on the nytimes.com
and binge i will.

The wife had her last spring break ahead of her and after a very difficult rotation we decided we wanted to relax. We decided that we would do an "all inclusive" vacation somewhere that was warm, had a nice beach, had no spring breaker college kids, and was affordable.
After a long and mostly futile search, I came upon Apple Vacations. Their web site says that they specialize in Caribbean vacations. So I decided to give them a call. With just the little bit of information that I stated above, a long with some pricing info they suggested the Bahia Principe Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. Sounded good to us.
We landed in Punta Cana at about 2pm. I like airports and I noticed something different right away about this one... The airports in the US are all government operated. I did not see any official government vehicles around. What I did see were a lot of Punta Cana Resort Group vehicles zipping around. I learned later that the Punta Cana airport is the busiest PRIVATE airport in the world. Apparently the Dominican Republic's government is too poor to create such a place, but the resorts needed an air terminal that was close by so that they did not have to ship their vacationers 4 hours over the Dominican countryside in crowed buses just to begin their fun. So the resorts got together and built a very nice sized airport. The runway is long enough to support traffic for all aircraft, even the new, massive Airbus A380.
Nearly everyone coming to Punta Cana is there for vacation, so the first thing that greets you is a band, and two beautiful Dominican girls in dresses colored like the Dominican flag. Everybody gets their picture taken, and you can pick it up when you leave.
You have to be kind of careful after you collect your bags, because there are a large group of men who want to take your bag and cary it for you. The ones you can "trust" have a uniform on that identifies them as airport employees. The others are just there to... I don't know what. When we booked the trip the Apple Vacation guy warned me about them and told me that I should go straight to the Apple counter. I did just that and promptly walked by the representative that was trying to help us... I felt like a king sized ass. After straighting out that the guy really was from Apple, we got on to our transfer bus and we were off to the resort.
We rolled in to the resort about 4 after passing immigration and a 30 minute drive to the resort. We were immediately struck by the cleanliness of the lobby and the massive palm tree statues.
The reception area was essentially a large roof. It was open on two sides and a nice breeze was always moving through keeping the area nice and cool.
We were taken to our room, by a golf cart. We were immediately struck on how freaking big the resort was... Honestly this place was HUGE!!
View Larger Map
The resort starts way on the lower left corner and stops at the ocean at the upper right corner.
There are approxamitely 1,500 rooms in the resort, and about 5,000 people staying there at any given time.
We got to our room and we found it to be a nice tiled floor room on the first floor of the building.
Not our room but one just like it.
Each room had a little patio, a day bed, and a very nice jacuzi bath tub. After seeing the room, we were off to the beach.
As we walked to the beach something else struck us. The ground were immaculate. Clean clean clean. Disney World could learn something from these people. There were people cleaning all of the time. They greeted you with a big smile and a hearty "Hola!" We got to the beach and found it to be just as clean as the rest of the resort. The hotel cleans and combs the beach every night, so that their guests don't have to worry about hurting themselves on any debris.
The beach itself was a white sand beach, and the sand was like powder it was so soft. There are a series of reefs a ways off shore so all of the major surf is broken up before it gets to the beach proper, so all you have to worry about is gentle waves. Awesome.
We immediately jumped in and started goofing around.
After playing around for a while we decided to have a drink. All inclusive means FREE DRINKS!!! We went to the hotel's reception area that also had a very large lounge in it. We sat down with our first Foo-Foo drinks of the vacation. We found the drink to not quite have the same punch as we are used to with rum drinks. We found out that the rum the resort uses is not very strong. For good reason too. If they used the heavy stuff, you would end up having all of the trouble that strong spirits brings. People throwing up on the sidewalk, fights breaking out at the pool, sex in bathrooms, all the stuff that we hoped to avoid... maybe not the sex in the bathroom, but you get the idea.
The resort people know you are there to have fun, and, for the most part, it seemed that their only wish in the entire world was facilitate you having that fun. The wait staff was always asking if they could bring you something to drink, they would dance around to the music playing, they would try to joke with you about who you were with or what you were drinking, and they would always, ALWAYS look at you funny if you ordered something without rum in it.
After a few drinks it was time for dinner and we settled down for the first buffet of the vacation. Surprisingly, the food was good, especially for buffet set up for about 2000 guests from different countries, with different tastes.
The hotel had little hour long shows that it put on every night, so we wandered over to the theater after dinner. The shows were all based on music and dancing, mainly because you had guests there from all over the world, with no real common language. Dancing, though cuts through all barriers and can be enjoyed by all. The shows were very entertaining.
Off to bed, the first day over.

It is an uphill battle trying to find interesting outfits for somebody 5ft 3in, overweight, apple formed and 50-one thing. My essential supply of recommendation has been the Internet. The ideas I normally discover are helpful however when the examples are designer outfits for celebrities I don't have much to go together with.
There is a delay earlier than receiving your package: The primary drawback of on-line purchasing is that there isn't a instant gratification. As a result of the merchandise should be shipped to you, you'll have to wait a few days. I generally desire going to the store if I see that the delivery time is just too lengthy. Hello, I liked the content material and I simply lens rolled you to my text ad brokers lens on squidoo. Kudos my friend.
Have a budget for a way much you can afford to spend on presents for yourself and others. Make a listing of individuals you will be buying for whereas within the islands. Because of the fees that airlines now charge for extra baggage, I've tried to checklist objects that can be packed into your baggage without taking on too much house. Don't wear too many pastel pink, blue and greens – they are especially getting older on sweatshirts and sweatpants. From there, drive again into Chicago to visit the Unique Thrift Store at Howard and Western (7530 N Western).
Personally, I always try to discover a free shipping choice when I store on the net. Websites like Amazon offer free delivery for orders totaling $35.00 or extra. Sites like Tmart provide free delivery on all of their products, no matter how much cash you spend, even for worldwide orders. This is young, quick vogue on an unlimited scale, however there are additionally many gems to be found, from quite a few collaborations to an incredible designer boutique selling smaller labels corresponding to Emma Cook, Peter Jensen, Sonia by Sonia Rykiel and Sessun.
Moreover Tonks, I've started trying out some of the Structo toys – my drawback is I need all the old toy vehicles from the 30s-50s and, of course, simply not sufficient money or room to accommodate that! Thanks for this hub. Very fascinating and precious. I like hubs that give fascinating and useful info and this one fills the bill. Thanks additionally for responding to my question about titles.

Here's the story behind this music video: When I was in elementary school in Ohio, I had to do a biography report. I chose to do mine on Andrew Lloyd Weber. I went to the public library to check out books on Weber and came across a VHS of music videos - songs from his musicals performed by various singers and actors from the actual Broadway plays. Here begins my and my sisters' obsession with Broadway musicals. I remember watching and re-watching that VHS tape until we could sing along to every song. Good times and even greater memories.
I was driving in my car the other day, listening to the Broadway channel on XM and what song do I hear? Love Changes Everything, from the Andrew Lloyd Weber musical "Aspects of Love," performed by Michael Ball. Can't even begin to tell you how happy it made me.

Day 95
I woke up today being very irritable and getting after my kids for every little thing. I couldn't figure out why I was so grumpy....and then it dawned on me and the minute I realized why I broke down. Exactly 6 months ago I was trying to listen to conference, but had a hard time. Either the things being spoken about would make me cry or I just couldn't concentrate on it and then we got that dread phone call from the hospital about my dad saying that it was time for him to go. So, today, the first half of conference I spent trying not to cry and then we went to my sister in-laws house for lunch and to watch the 2nd half with them. It was a nice distraction from what was on my mind, but it was hard to listen to conference with so many people and kids..... and maybe I was trying not to listen because I didn't want to get emotional and think about what happened last conference. But I am looking forward to reading it next month. Oh, but the picture is from something funny that happened that night. After the kids had gone to bed Weston was on the computer and I was rummaging through a drawer when I hear the garage door open. It totally scared me and made me think that someone had been in the house or was trying to get in. Weston goes to investigate and while he is gone I realized that a spare garage door opener was in the drawer that I was looking through and I must have bumped it with my hand. It made us both laugh, but I guess I was just a little spooked especially after mom's house was busted into.

You were in our thoughts, which can sound shallow, but we prayed for all of you & after the talk on prayer, I hoped so badly that you could feel the prayers of so many surrounding you. I don't know if I've ever felt that feeling but I hope you have.
After reading this, I think, no, I am SURE, that I will get a garage door opener put on our carport. Oh wait, we do have a garage! I always forget. It's full of gardening machines/tools & bikes.

All William Cardoza did was walk outside his Bronx building with chicken and a Coors Light and cops went ballistic, clubbing him with batons and breaking his arm, his wife and lawyer charge.
Wife Vielka Deleon, 46, said Cardoza, 48, was cooking in their Bedford Park apartment Friday night when cops pulled up outside, where she and some friends were waiting for her husband to bring down the food.
When he came out with a plate of chicken and the beer, cops asked for his ID.
Suddenly, Deleon said, the cops tossed Cardoza against a fence as he fished for his wallet – and she tried to translate for her Spanish-speaking spouse.
"That's my husband. Leave him alone," she said she screamed just before she was pepper-sprayed.
And that's when the batons came raining down on Cardoza, breaking his right arm, according to his attorney, Seth Harris.
Cops counter that Cardoza was drinking and was uncooperative, and that he took a swing at the arresting officers. He was charged with disorderly conduct and obstructing governmental administration. His wife got a summons.
Cardoza, who needs surgery, plans to sue.

A Thousand Splendid Suns (Paperback)
Staff Reviews
A Thousand Splendid Suns by Kahled Hosseini is set in Afghanistan. Miriam and Laila have vastly different backgrounds. Miriam was the illegitimate daughter of a serving woman and her employer. When she confronts her father's legitimate family she is married off at the tender age of 15 to a brutal man. Laila is the beloved daughter of a teacher, she is educated and encouraged to believe in herself. Their lives will intersect as violence tears their country apart. Hosseini captures vividly the quiet heroism of the women and the devastation of their country. The Kite Runner, Kahled Hosseini's first book, is a powerful look at the suffering caused in Afghanistan by the Taliban. It is a coming of age story of two boys, a tale of betrayal and redemption. Amir is the son of a wealthy business man, Hassan the son of a servant to Amir's father. They are childhood playmates and companions until a brutal attack and a moment's cowardice severs their relationship. Years later Amir will have the opportunity to atone, but it could cost his life.
— Deon Stonehouse
Propelled by the same superb instinct for storytelling that made The Kite Runner a beloved classic, A Thousand Splendid Suns is at once an incredible chronicle of thirty years of Afghan history and a deeply moving story of family, friendship, faith, and the salvation to be found in love. After 103 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and with four million copies of The Kite Runner shipped, Khaled Hosseini returns with a beautiful, riveting, and haunting novel that confirms his place as one of the most important literary writers today. Born a generation apart and with very different ideas about love and family, Mariam and Laila are two women brought jarringly together by war, by loss and by fate. As they endure the ever escalating dangers around them-in their home as well as in the streets of Kabul-they come to form a bond that makes them both sisters and mother-daughter to each other, and that will ultimately alter the course not just of their own lives but of the next generation. With heart-wrenching power and suspense, Hosseini shows how a woman's love for her family can move her to shocking and heroic acts of self-sacrifice, and that in the end it is love, or even the memory of love, that is often the key to survival.
A stunning accomplishment, A Thousand Splendid Suns is a haunting, heartbreaking, compelling story of an unforgiving time, an unlikely friendship, and an indestructible love.
About the Author
Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan, and moved to the United States in 1980. He is the author of the New York Times bestsellers The Kite Runner, A Thousand Splendid Suns, and And the Mountains Echoed. He is A U.S. Goodwill Envoy to the United Nations Refugee Agency, and the founder of The Khaled Hosseini Foundation, a nonprofit that provides humanitarian assistance to the people of Afghanistan.

Happy Friday, everyone!
It has been one of those weeks, so I'm happy to have the weekend on the horizon.
I'm proud to report that I have officially bought my first Christmas present! Actually, THREE presents! I feel so accomplished.
As hard as I tried to stay awake and watch the Project Runway finale, I couldn't do it (NOTE: please do not give anything away! I'm hoping to watch it tonight!). And, while in said slumber, my mind was working overtime.
We woke up this morning and Mr. KK had the same kind of night.
MR. KK: "I had the weirdest dreams last night."
KK: "OMG, ME TOO! Did your dreams involve my old college roommates that I haven't seen in 13 years that for some reason no longer want to talk to me, D and T? Were you heading back to college after a summer off, but you were your present age, and they all were there, wearing really fashionable dresses – which was totally out of character, btw – and they hugged you but you could feel a little resistance? And you were in our senior housing – but it wasn't REALLY our senior housing, because it was actually nice – and they were on their Blackberries while you tried to make nice and they ignored you???"
MR.KK: "Um, nope. I dreamed I got fired."
One last thing – and I have to keep it brief because I PROMISED Mr. KK that I wouldn't make fun of my mother's lack of technical knowledge (even though it would make a really funny blog post, but a promise is a promise...(until people forget you made a promise to them...)).
My parents bought a new digital camera. And by new, I mean their first. So my mother has a zillion questions, it takes her 3 full minutes to take a photo and she's so excited to have a camera, that whenever I go to take a picture – on our Newport trip, in Boston, during Sunday dinner – she has to whip out her camera and take the SAME EXACT PHOTO.
I tried explaining to her that only ONE of us needs to take the photo; that's the beauty of the digital world. We can share photos. She still does it.
So, now she's taken all of these photos and she wants to take them off of her camera. So I tell my parents to download the camera software to the computer and it should be pretty self-explanatory. It's not.
I go over to help, and for some reason, the computer isn't recognizing the camera. I tell my mother to take the laptop to Best Buy – where she bought the camera – and have them show her how to take the pictures off the camera. THAT way, they'll teach her and I won't have to spend multiple Saturdays sitting in front of the computer with her saying, "Now, can you show me again?" and "Where do the photos go?"
I believe, the trip went something like this:
MOM: "Hi. I bought a camera and can't get the pictures off of it. I brought my laptop, can you help me figure it out?"
BEST BUY GUY takes one look at their ANCIENT laptop and bursts out laughing. Then points and laughs at the dinosaur on the table in front of him. Then, gets his blue-shirt-wearing buddy to come over and join in the laughter.
BBG: "It's because your computer is so darn OLD."
(When Mr. KK forgets my promise, I'll retell the conversation between me and my Mom about getting a new computer)

Last weekend I tried a new recipe from one my all time favorite recipe books: "Easy Vegetarian Dinners"
The recipe looked so sophisticated- for the longest time I thought it was too complicated for me. But, it did come from "Easy" vegetarian recipes..so how hard could it be?
It was great! The recipe involves thinly slicing snow peas, red and orange sweet peppers and frying them in sesame oil. I just barely toasted the vegetables so they maintained their crispness, and I used a very small amount of sesame oil so that the flavor of the vegetables was preserved.
The tofu was also very easy to prepare. I took a regular package of extra firm tofu and cut it into 8 large slices. These were soaked in soy sauce for about 1 hour. Then, I coated each slice in an ample amount of cornmeal before pan frying it in a small amount of olive oil.
The tofu fried easily to a golden brown color in just a few minutes. This did not take long.. so I was looking for something else to prepare. According to the cookbook, the tofu is Japanese style, so I thought-- why not sushi? I had all of the ingredients handy from my last sushi experience. For sushi filling I had cucumber, carrot (I only had baby carrots, so I thinly sliced a few of those and called it good) and some avocado.
The sushi rice cooked quickly, since I only prepared 1/2 cup. I quickly added rice vinegar, following the recipe on the vinegar bottle. Once mixed, I spread the rice on the nori and rolled (as best I could.. I am no sushi expert) the rice together with a spread of toppings. Served with pickled ginger and wasabi, it wasn't bad at all! I topped the rolls with sesame seeds, and topped the fried tofu with sesame seeds as well. I had two problems with the meal: first- the fried tofu was missing some salt. The one hour soak in soy sauce wasn't enough for the hunk of tofu. Next time I will add salt to the cornmeal batter as well. Second-- I was missing saki! I was very pleased to find out that Trader Joes sells saki in its drink section.. be sure to pick some up while getting supplies for a meal like this! Happy Cooking!

New York City and the Giants Game!
OMG the Giants won the superbowl! Ok, so I confess, I am not much of a football person. BUT- I did watch the Giants v. Packers game, and that got me a little excited..since the game went into OT and all... It doesnt hurt that I was watching it with die-hard fans. Plus the thought of football themed food is delightful!! (Ok Ok, I'll admit it, I was a little more excited about the thought of food than the game)
After that game, my die-hard Giants fan Gavin called me up and invited me to watch the game at his superbowl party: in Hoboken NJ. We drove up, and of course, made a weekend of it. Saturday, we went into the city to eat in Little Italy. We walked into La Nonna, after strolling down Mulberry Street and being enticed by the menu. I ordered the special: a fettucini dish with crab meat. We also ordered two bottles of wine for the table. Halfway through my glass, the chef comes out with a cart that has the fettucini cooking in a pan on a burner. Next to the pan is a giant cheese wheel- similar to the display cheeses sold at Whole Foods. The rest is a bit hazy.. I think he coated the cheese top with oil... but then he LIT THE CHEESE WHEEL ON FIRE. The HUGE cheese wheel.
It was flaming pretty good now, and we were joking about the fire hazard when I genuinely started to worry. The flames were pretty big, after all, and this was a small little restaurant. Full of people. Without a second thought, the chef picked up the pan and dumped the crab and noodles into the flaming melted cheese wheel. He tossed the pasta and coated it with the freshly melted cheese.
A++ for presentation-- and I swear that it would be equally impressive to someone who hadnt had any wine! The food was deliciously cheesy (plus I got extra fresh parmesan grated on top) and the portion size was gigantic. Coupled with the soft but crusty bread and my trusty glass of red, I was in a state of food bliss.
The next day was spent lounging around and prepping for the Superbowl party. Breakfast was at the Bagel Smashery-- a wonderful concept of smooshing your bagel sandwiches to mix all the goodness together. Another bonus: they add ketchup into the egg and cheese sandwiches, pre-smashery. Add a cup of butterscotch coffee (my first cup ever.. it was delicious) and I was good to go. So sad though-- it appears the business is being sold. Who knows if it will retain its quality in the future :(
Later, I went to a drive-through beer pickup place with Gavin. No, that was not a typo. You DRIVE into the beer storage area and the workers will load whatever you want into your trunk. Kegs. 30-Packs. Soda. Whatever you want. Cool.
My dish for the superbowl party was simple, since we were travelling and I didnt feel like spending the whole day in the kitchen (though that is usually just my cup of tea..), I made cake. from a box. with store bought frosting. but hey-- at least I got creative with the icing.
And we all know how the game ended. Yay Giants!

"How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!" Psalm 139:17
Who can understand how God thinks? Especially when it comes to people. You have to wonder why He would think about us at all? Mankind rebelled against Him. We have sinned, and continually do sin, against Him. We caused the suffering and sacrifice of His Son. We are always bent on going our own way and doing our own thing. He blesses us in so many ways and then we forget about what He has done and go back to doing what we want ignoring Him. Nevertheless, in spite of how we are He still thinks about us.
His thoughts toward us are thoughts of love. They are thoughts of good and not thoughts of evil. They are thoughts of mercy and grace. They are not thoughts to harm us, hurt us or destroy us. They are thoughts to give us a hope and a future. They are thoughts of loving-kindness.
There's an old country song that said, "You are always on my mind". Well, you are always on the Lord's mind. He always thinks about you. There is not a moment that He doesn't, or hasn't, thought about you. Even before you were born He was thinking about you. He is thinking about you now. You may think He has forgotten you, but He hasn't. How can you forget something that you are always thinking about?
Have a great day. You are always on the Lord's mind. He is always thinking about you. And the thoughts that He is thinking about you are good thoughts.

The number of dead in the Indonesian tsunami has now topped 400.
Indonesian tsunami dead tops 400
Indonesian tsunami dead tops 400
The latest count comes despite 300 people still reported missing from Monday's monster wave, caused by a 7.8 magnitude earthquake off Indonesia's Sumatran coast.
A lack of helicopters and bad weather is said to be hampering relief efforts with torrential rain and high tides making it difficult for boats to get to the disaster zone around the isolated Mentawai islands.
The rush to get aid to the Tsunami's survivors comes as Indonesia also struggles to cope with this week's eruption of Mount Merapi.
More than 30 people have died following a series of large scale explosions from the volcano in the last few days.
Merapi continues to spew lava and hot ash spreading think dust to surrounding villages.
That has prompted authorities to widen the danger area, which has already seen some and 40,000 residents evacuated from the mountain slopes.

Mobile Storage Cabinets With Drawers - For an office to appear professionally managed it is important that it must appear organized and clean. Papers and files strewn all over the place can produce a cluttered appearance and poor impression on people and important dignitaries. Office storage cabinets help you keep your workplace tidy and give the feeling of a sleek, well-managed place. Choosing the right type of cabinets is important. Your choice will, to some large extent are based on the storage demands of your type of business.
There are countless options available once you decide to buy cabinets to your workplace. The dimensions and the structure of the cabinet as well its layout will be dependent on what things you intend to keep in them. The space available on your workplace is just another element that has to be considered when you choose an office cabinet. In case you have enough floor area, then cabinets which extend out horizontally can be utilized. On the flip side, if your workplace has great ceiling height, then it is possible to think about buying storage cabinets which extend out vertically.
Office cabinets are available in a vast range of material, from commercial wood to the office space to those manufactured from solid pine for executives. In case you've got a security issue on your workplace or would like to maintain some precious substances, then your cabinets have to be strong. You can think about using cabinets which are made of solid heavy duty steel for such purposes. The dimensions and the weight of items which you intend to store is going to be a vital element in choosing the proper type of storage cabinet.
Cabinets can be purchased as standalone or they can be built in as a part of your office furniture to provide an integrated appearance. Based on how often they're likely to be utilized, you can select them to be either open or with sliding or hinged doors. Most storage units are enclosed shelving spaces to optimize the use of space within the cabinets.
These shelves are often adjustable and can be inserted or removed from the storage cabinet based on what you need. It is necessary that you purchase your cabinets from reputable and reputable dealers. Storage cabinets are items of long-term use and have to endure for a couple of years. Office storage in the best prices is available online at most of the office supplies online retail shops.

First thing to do while dealing with such a question is give a definition of culture. This is a very hard task, and many thinkers through history have tried to give an exact definition of it. For a long time the concept of culture has been considered the base for a qualitative discrimination between human's and animal's capacities and behaviors. Evidence of this is given by Lucretius on his "De Rerum Natura" ( On the nature of the Universe ), where he describes humans beings as some sort of animals, before the acquisition of those characteristics that made them proper humans, identified by Lucretius within moral and law( Lucretius, First century BC 1981 edition: 200). The Bible also is a proof of this. On the Genesis it is described how god created men and women giving them the power to rule on all the other animals ( The bible, Genesis 2, 27 ). This is to state that we are inevitably influenced by what are the roots of the Western society, and it is not a matter of being religious or not. These influences are present even in our times, in fact many of the definition of culture given more recently tended to highlight some aspects of our behavior as features of human beings only, forgetting that some other species also show those characteristics. This is for instance the case of Ruth Benedict that defined culture as ". . . that complex whole which includes all the habits acquired by man as a member of society" ( R. Benedict, 1929), this definition can for instance fit for non-human primates as well. One point on which the most of the definitions agree about is that culture is not individual, but its is something that concerns many individuals of the same population, and "…it is not monolithic but a set of processes" ( Boesch and Tomasello, 1998: 591). It is just relatively recently that people started to talk about animal culture, and more specifically about non-human primates culture. Two of the most famous examples of non-human primate behavior that started the debate about culture in non-human primate are the ones of a population of Japanese macaques that started washing potatoes in a river, and a population of chimpanzees at Gombe National Park ( Tanzania) that was observed while using sticks as a tool to catch termites ( B. G. Galef Jr. 1991:166). The intriguing thing is then what make some patterns of behavior classifiable as culture and what make disregard some others. Why people are more likely to talk of culture when they hear about a chimpanzee that uses some kind of tool and they are more likely to talk about instinct when a dog dig a hole to hide some food? This is because "culture" is a word invented by human beings referable to human's behaviors and actions, therefore our vision of culture is very anthropocentric. This is the reason why non-human primates seen doing things that human could do as well ( like washing potatoes or using a tool ) are hypnotized to have culture. An ordinary dog digging some food in order to save it for later is not considered to have culture. This is because digging food is not something humans normally do. Even though non-human primates are more likely to be considered to have culture than other animals, people are still dubious about this. But stating that washing potatoes in a river, as a pattern of behavior never testified before ( and therefore brand new, at least from human anthropocentric point of view ), is actually culture, what about all the other behaviors of the species not taken in account ? In fact it would be imprecise to affirm that Japanese macaque have culture basing the statement just on one pattern of behavior ( washing potatoes in this case ). If they have culture it is because the whole of their behaviors must be cultural. Furthermore a specific behavior cannot be considered cultural just because it is supposed to be or is actually new. First because we have not enough field research data to make a big statement like that, second because animals can learn new behaviors, and as they learn them they can also forget them., just as we do not act like our grandparents did. However since culture is supposed to be a number of information and instructions transmittable between individuals of the same species, some researchers highlighted what they think is the fundamental reason why non-human primates do not have culture. According to them the main point is how the transmission of information is performed: while human beings transmit information both through imitation and teaching, non-human primates in the most of the observed cases, lack teaching, and rely mainly on imitation. That means that a baby chimpanzee have to learn how to use a stick to "fish" termites on his own, just watching how other individuals do. Instead a baby human will of course imitate as a consequence of observation, but he will also be taught and helped by adult individuals to achieve his goal. This latter mechanism is called pedagogy and it is taught to be the system throughout which culture is transmitted( D. Premack, A. J. Premack 1994: 354). Imitation is therefore not considered a pattern of transmission of culture. At the end in any case, both the baby chimp and the baby human learn the new mechanism, and the only difference between pedagogy and imitation seems to be a larger amount of time spent before achieving the task in the case of the chimpanzee, which does not make a big difference between the two different ways of transmission. Hal Whitehead, a Canadian scientist, is referenced proposed a new definition of culture, which is more open-minded. He said that by biological means, culture is an information transmitted between members of the same population through some kind of social learning, that causes similar behavior among different individuals of the same population ( H. Whitehead 2004: 2). By accepting this definition, the way information are transmitted lose relevance. Furthermore this definition is also strong enough to support the hypothesis of non-human primates culture. Even if Hal Whitehead got it right, stopping here could be a big mistake. Culture between non-human primates is more than that. In fact if humans have culture for the simple reason that they act like humans, then chimpanzee should have culture because they act like chimpanzees, and not just because they transmit information. Just the fact that they can learn new things is enough to talk about culture between them, and if the new pattern of behavior is actually less efficient than the old one, they can as well stop performing it. Doing things implies a cerebral process, and animals do things that are a advantageous for them just like we do. Therefore if we have culture it would be nonsense to state that non-human primates do not. They have culture simply because they behave. Their behavior is their culture, their instinct is their culture, because culture is not the behavior, but the behavior is part of culture.

Gold miner Centamin's shares dropped more than five per cent after the company said pre-tax profit fell around 30 per cent in the first quarter of 2017.
The figures
For the period ended 31 March, Centamin's profit before tax fell to $29.5m (£22.9m) from $40.9m in the first quarter of 2016.
The miner produced 109,187 ounces of gold in the quarter, 13 per cent lower than the previous year but in line with the company's forecast.
Full year guidance was maintained at 540,000 ounces with $580 per ounce cash cost of production and $790 per ounce all-in sustaining costs.
The FTSE 250 firm's share price was down 5.10 per cent at 164.65p in morning trading.

Why it's interesting
Production fell at the company's Sukari mine due to a 20 per cent reduction in the average processed grade, but grades from the open pit are expected to increase towards the reserve average from the second quarter.
The company said a decrease in gold sales volumes hit revenue in the first quarter, but sales were marginally offset by a two per cent rise in realised gold prices.
Centamin has a very healthy balance sheet with current assets exceeding both current and total liabilities, according to Yuen Low, analyst at Shore Capital.
What Centamin said
Chief executive Andrew Pardey said: "As forecast, production rates decreased in the first quarter mainly driven by a planned reduction in average grade from the open pit."
During the second quarter, we expect to see open pit ore grades increase towards the reserve average as the cutback in the east wall of the pit is further progressed. With the processing and underground mining operations also continuing to deliver strong levels of productivity, we remain on course to meet our full year 2017 production guidance.

As the most popular game genres seem to be Adventure, Action, Shooters and Role-Playing, I should attempt to implement some of the features commonly found in those genres to my project. Time is an issue, however, as the deadline for this project is close. I'm not sure I can fit in extra production time to add these new features to my level, although I will attempt to if I do end up having some spare time.

MBA 2016 Jose Carlos Feliciano (left) at Al Gore's Climate Reality Leadership Corps training
March 13, 2015. Shanghai – CEIBS MBA 2016 Jose Carlos Feliciano has returned from Al Gore's Climate Reality Leadership Corps training in New Delhi even more inspired to pursue his social entrepreneurship projects and to educate others on the importance of sustainability.
"During the conference I was able to meet and interact with change-makers and social entrepreneurs in the region, which was for sure a source of inspiration for continuing with my projects," Jose said. "In addition, being able to receive training in leadership, communication and climate change from Al Gore was definitely a high point in my life. I was able to ask him questions and gain more knowledge about global issues and sustainable business opportunities."
Led by Al Gore, the former US Vice President and Founder of the Climate Reality Project, the three-day programme provided Jose and the other delegates with the know-how for combining science and solutions to engage and inspire others to act on climate issues.
Participants are required to perform 10 "acts of leadership" within a year of completing the course. These can be anything from writing a blog to organising a climate change-related event or campaign. Jose will share what he learned during the training with his CEIBS classmates. He is also planning to deliver a series of speeches in April at different youth leadership conferences being organized by AIESEC China, reaching to around 800 university students. This summer he is organizing an educational social entrepreneurship project in the Himalayas that will bring together entrepreneurs and senior business leaders to deliver solar power solutions to ancient villages in rural areas there. For more details about Jose's upcoming projects contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is increasingly afraid of the Ukrainian army as it is getting stronger. This opinion was expressed by the former Commander of the Polish Land Forces and Deputy Minister of National Defense of the Republic of Poland, Waldemar Skrzypczak, in the commentary section of Ukrinform.
"Ukraine can be afraid of some actions [during the Zapad-2017 exercises], which will in no small part weaken the Ukrainian army. In my opinion, Putin fears the Ukrainian army more than ever, as its strength increases and it is now already in a position to fight off Luhansk and Donetsk from the separatists ," the Polish military expert said.
In his opinion, the US and other Western countries do not provide Ukraine security guarantees, which could encourage President Putin toward aggressive actions, in particular during the Zapad-2017 exercises.

OK, I was planning on opening a private practice...and I still may. I'm open to seeing people ANY time. I'm registered with the state and everything. And you saw my logo, it's amazing! But, with Chris and I planning to start a family in the near future, and the crappy economy, I'm nervous about taking out a small business loan. So, I decided to interview with a few places for a possible change in employment.
Drum roll...
I've been offered a position with Beacon Family Mental Health in Sandy, UT. It's a new business. I'll participate in the establishment of a business, making opening a successful private practice later MUCH easier. I'll use both of my degrees as well. I'll do individual, couple, family, and group therapy. I'll also have the opportunity to give presentations, teach classes, and offer seminars. In addition, I'll help with marketing, organization development, and design. They even encouraged me to write the book I've been planning for some time now! And my personal favorite, I'd finally be able to see Deaf clients when I want.
The company's mission statement is "Emotional healing, for individuals and families, centered on Christ". I'll post the website when I've helped get it up and running. ;) It's similar to LDS Family Services, but I'll probably make more $. HA! I was quite impressed by this company. They seem to care about their employees, which is something I haven't felt in a LONG time. When explaining their business model to me, it sounds very much like a "private practice" feel, but without having to do the billing, scheduling, etc. I'm very excited!
Now, I have to get back to studying for the NCMHCE I'm taking on Jan. 17th. If I pass, I'm on my way to licensure as an LPC! I've completed my required hours, I've passed the NCE...I'm almost there!

Rangiora St's past, and its current rejuvenation, were the focus of the Whanganui Summer Programme's Castlecliff tour.
Thirty-two people took part in the trip, organised by Graham and Lynne Pearson who have organised three previous history tours for the programme.
"This time the focus was Rangiora St, past and present, as we wanted to feature the rejuvenation project," Mr Pearson said.
"Lynne Douglas, from the Residents Association, set up a history photo display at the Duncan Pavilion and spoke about the shops and people of Rangiora St. Following this everyone wandered up the street with Lynne, and Ross Fallen from Progress Castlecliff, checking out the sites of the old butcher shop, dairies, second hand shop and former supermarket."
The tour visited Ivan Vostinar's pottery studio in the former supermarket building and his garden on the corner of Rangiora and Matai Sts.
"The trip concluded with afternoon tea at The Citadel cafe where many trips down memory lane were shared over the teacups," Mr Pearson said.
"Everyone had a great time, going home impressed with the progress made on the rejuvenation of Rangiora St."
