Do you/Did you BABY WEAR?
Ooo a hot and exciting topic!
I have been research, reading, looking high and low about the world of "baby wearing" ...insert oooo's and ahhhh's! I love the idea of baby wearing.. sometimes when I see Moms out n about, I wonder, why aren't they just baby wearing instead of hassling with all that? I realize baby wearing isn't simple, fast or hassle free.. but I feel like the benefits are lovely... I think it's intimate, nurturing and cozy.
Baby wearing has surprisingly been around for centuries.. but more recently has gained attention and a rise due to those wanting to do more attachment parenting. There has been proven to be a load of benefits to baby wearing as well.. everything from..
- a strong maternal bond
- decrease in post partum
- infants who are carried tend to be calmer bc their primal/survival needs are being met
- the walking, heart beat, rhythm can have soothing effects
- infants tend to be more humanized bc they see social cues
- independence is established earlier
- decreases risk of "flat head syndrome"
A lot of benefits right? Some causes for hesitation are proper safety.. hello that's always a cause to make sure of.. ie balance and safety of the parent walking and doing things while carrying the bambino. It tends to be so practical to baby wear.. two hands free.. baby on board..!
So tell me ladies.. did you/do baby wear? If you could do it over, would you try it out? Do you have a fav wrap/carrier? What's your opinion?
Anywho... I had the basic snuggly... not a wrap or bamboose or anything like it... My babies were heavy and it was hard on my back with anything that wasn't really strapped to me... and the snuggly held her tightly close to me...
I loved having her there. My son HATED anything like it... always... but my daughter chilled there for hours while we walked and hiked and shopped... it was more out of convenience than me wanting to bond and the heart rate thing, etc... But she is perfectly lovely now and fully confident that she is loved ...
plus, you can smell them... and that's awesome.
I bet you would have liked the moby wrap then.. super close and snuggly!
I never got to try the Moby but have heard good things about it.
I loved wearing my babies. All they want to do is be with mom or a warm body because my husband would wear our babies too after we got the Ergo, which was another plus. Then again he'd wear my sling too. He's a very hands on dad!
Have fun!

Our pick-your-own patch is still full to the brim of delicious sweet peppers available for you to come harvest. While peppers are often found within salsas and sauces, they can also be the star of the show at dinner time! Check out this stuffed pepper recipe to see what I mean. It's not only delicious, but also a great way to use up leftovers. I created this recipe on a Monday afternoon, following a Sunday night BBQ. My fridge was full of a random assortment of leftovers – sausages, veggies from kabobs, and a bit of brown rice. I did a bit of chopping, mixed it all up with some cheese and BBQ sauce, stuffed it inside a pepper, and bam! A delicious meal all in one. Pretty nutritious too! It's heavy on the veggies, and features brown rice, both high-fiber foods, which means it will leave you feeling full and satisfied.
What's more is it's not only healthy for our bodies, but also for the planet. Using up leftovers is a great way to minimize food waste. Did you know that each year in Canada, $31 billion worth of food is wasted? That works out to approximately $28/week for the average household. Nearly 50% of Canadian food waste occurs in the home, too.* So although tossing leftovers in the trash or compost may seem like no big deal, it really does add up for not just your pocket but also the health of our world. Small, everyday changes in the way we think about food and food waste really can make a difference!
Overall, this recipe is by no means set in stone. Feel free to get creative and swap out the meat or veggies for whatever you have available. I'm excited to see what you come up with!
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 25-30 minutes
Serves: 4
4 sweet green pepper
2 pre-cooked sausages
2 cups cooked mixed veggies: zucchini, bell peppers, mushrooms, diced jalapeno, onion or whatever you have on hand
1 cup cooked brown rice
¾ cup sharp cheddar cheese
¼ cup BBQ sauce
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Fun fact, you can also use a toaster oven! That's what I did for this recipe, in an attempt to keep the house cooler during this hot summer weather.
Carefully slice off the top of the peppers. Remove the seeds and white membranes by carefully sliding a paring knife around the inside of the peppers and then tugging it all out. This is a handy trick, as it keeps the mess to a minimum!
Place the peppers in a microwave-safe dish. Add about 1 cup of water to the dish, so that it reaches approximately 1 cm up the side of the pepper.
Microwave the peppers in 30 second increments, for a total of 3 minutes. This steams them, par-cooking them so that they cook evenly later on in the recipe along with the filling.
While the peppers are cooking, mix together the rice, chopped veggies, BBQ sauce, and cheese (but save a little bit for the end!) in a small bowl. Set aside
Carefully remove the peppers from the microwave – they will be very hot! I recommend using oven mitts, just to be safe.
Transfer the steamed peppers to an oven-safe dish. Season the inside of the peppers with a sprinkle of garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Transfer the rice and vegetable mixture into the peppers, and top with a little bit more cheese.
Place in the pre-heated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the peppers are browned and the cheese is melted and browning.
Remove from the oven & serve! Be careful, though – they will be hot!

Medical billing software developer Craneware has acquired Scottish technology company Kestros Ltd in a deal worth up to £1.25 million.
Edinburgh-based Craneware, which develops software billing and audit solutions for the US healthcare market, said the acquisition gives it a "technology platform in the high growth Patient Access market, addressing the growing level of consumerisation within Healthcare".
Kilmarnock-based Kestros was launched in 2009 and is reported to have established "early market entry into the growing area of mobile technology and patient connectivity within the Healthcare industry".
Craneware said it will now fund further development of Kestros' technology from its current use in a select number of NHS Trusts to broader use in the Healthcare market, and plans to integrate the technology with its existing Medical Necessity technology within its Patient Access product family.
The acquisition if for Kestros and all related assets for a maximum of £1,250,000 which will be adjusted according to revenue milestones, comprising £150,000 paid in cash and the remainder paid in new Craneware equity.
Craneware has also announced today the appointment of Russ Rudish to its board as a non-executive director with immediate effect.
Rudish brings more than 30 years of Healthcare industry experience to the Craneware board, and was most recently Global Sector Leader for Healthcare at Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, where he led the $2 billion global consulting, audit, tax and financial advisory business, developing the firm's Global health care strategy.
He joined Deloitte in 2006 from Eclipsys Corp, which was acquired by Allscripts in 2010 and was a partner with Deloitte LLC from 2006 to 2014.
Rudish is currently a director in Rudish Health Solutions LLC.
Craneware chief executive, Keith Neilson, said: "Craneware is committed to driving innovation within the Healthcare industry, enabling our customers to reduce administrative costs while increasing levels of patient care.
"We are delighted to welcome Russ Rudish and the Kestros team into Craneware.
"Russ brings over 30 years' experience within the US Healthcare industry, most recently developing Deloitte's Global healthcare strategy and brings huge insight in the developments currently taking place in this market.
"We are delighted to be able to benefit from this experience and knowledge in taking the Company forward.
"We believe Kestros, with its highly innovative and sophisticated mobile application, which is currently in use in the NHS, has significant potential for expansion.
"The governments in both the US and the UK are pushing for greater IT links between patients and healthcare providers, meaning both markets are highly receptive to innovative technologies such as Kestros'.
"This investment will strengthen our Patient Access product family and importantly will give us the platform for our first Gateway product in this area."

Zombies. This week, however, Microsoft released two classic games for free. And, they are integrated with Xbox Live: Xbox Live Sudoku and Xbox Live Minesweeper. They're classics. They're new from Xbox LIVE. And they're free!Long time Microsoft Windows users will remember when Solitaire and (later) Minesweeper shipped with the desktop operating system and destroyed productivity on millions of destops. Minesweeper is the game where the goal is to clear the board using flags to safely mark potential hidden mines. Sudoku is the popular paper and pencil based numbers game that has become a mobile device game mainstay over the years.If the gameplay essentials of these games aren't addictive enough, these Xbox Live versions add powerups, achievements and leaderboards as added incentives. Don't be surprised if you find yourself playing a few extra rounds (or 10 in my case) just to get to the next achievement.Both games can be found in the Marketplace app on Windows Phone.

I'm a lover of all things potato. Mashed. Baked. Fried. Scalloped. You name it, I love it.
And with football season here, you need a potato recipe that'll have your couch full of fans – fans of your culinary skills, that is.
You need twice baked potatoes, the heavenly creation of a baked potato filled with mashed potatoes, then baked again. The combination has me swooning.
I take my twice-baked potatoes to another level by loading them with not only butter, but cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar, green onions and bacon, and then topping them with even more cheese and bacon – because that's what all things in life should be topped with.
A bite holds an explosion of flavors and textures. There's crispy skin with the creamy potatoes, bits of salty bacon, melted gooey cheese and the perfect amount of bite from the green onions.
These loaded twice-baked potatoes make a hearty side dish, pairing well with just about anything. They're also easy for potlucks and are great for appetizers.
Another plus is that they can be made ahead of time. You can have them ready a day in advance or the morning of the big game. When ready to serve, just top with cheese and bacon, and bake until warmed through.
4 large or 6 medium baking potatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup cream cheese
1/4 cup milk
8 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded cheddar, divided
8 green onions, chopped, divided
To taste: salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika
Set oven to 400 degrees. Wash potatoes and pat dry. Cut a small slit in each potato. Coat with olive oil and sprinkle with coarse salt. Place potatoes directly on oven rack and bake for one hour or until tender.
Using tongs, carefully remove potatoes from oven. Turn oven down to 350 degrees. (Grab a kitchen towel for the next step, you'll want to hold the potatoes in it, as they'll be hot.) Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and remove potato flesh into a medium size bowl. Be sure to leave a thin wall of flesh to keep skin from ripping.
Add the butter, sour cream, cream cheese, milk, half the bacon, half of the shredded cheddar, half the green onions to potatoes and mash until creamy. Season to taste with salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika.
Using a spoon or piping bag, fill skins evenly with potato mixture. Place on baking sheet and top with remaining cheese, bacon crumbles and green onions. Return to oven and bake for 15 minutes.
Serve hot with sour cream and salsa.

Evan Carlyle Rees
Evan is an incredibly talented pianist based out of San Francisco, CA. He asked for a very simple site that allows users to quickly find his recordings, videos, bio, and get in touch with him... while maintaining a professionally-designed touch.
The Key to a Great First Impression
In the music industry, having a professional, clean, and user-friendly website is absolutely key to standing out amongst the competition. Not only does it boost your confidence when handing out a business card, but it boosts your chances of popping up higher in more search results in your area... which turns into landing more gigs.
Let the music play
One of the main reasons many musicians invest in a great website is to showcase their recordings. On Evan's site, we added simple music players that separate his original works from his sideman credits. While he chose not to have the .mp3's downloadable, all it takes is one simple tweak.
Embedded Video Content
Being a recent college graduate, Evan wanted to showcase his senior recital to show some recent clips of him playing various styles and instruments. He just gave us the YouTube/Vimeo links and we made the videos work perfectly and look pretty.
Artistically Branded Mobile Views
As you might have noticed by now, ALL of our sites look great on mobile devices. However, a nice added touch we like to think sets us apart from the "other guys" is how we maintain the branding of the website by using custom color schemes, unique typography, and the client's artwork within all the nooks & crannies of our sites.
Simple, Yet Elegant Blog
It is still very true that one of the number one ways to drive traffic to any site is by posting valuable articles in a blog or journal. We added a blog to Evan's page, where we encouraged him to post about anything from his move to the Bay Area, to why jazz and cooking are similar. He is a great read!

Bursting a tyre in a pothole, yards from my home, I wondered why Keynesians might feel the need to pay people to dig holes and fill them in again. There are tons of things that need doing in this country. And tons of people doing jobs that add absolutely nothing to the sum of human wellbeing.
But, since the Great Depression, there has been a perception that it doesn't matter what people do, so long as they have money to spend. Likewise, it doesn't matter what they buy, so long as someone gets paid for making it. So millions of people have mind-numbing and soul-destroying jobs manufacturing crap we don't need, and the only objection to that fact is that so many of them are now Chinese rather than British.
And the only reason mainstream politicians are now berating a boom that was fuelled by credit and property values is the fact that it ended. The Tories now profess a love of British manufacturing but until 2008 they were as much in love with the City as Gordon Brown was. Indeed, by the time John Major left power, this country was making nothing but Kendal Mint Cake and instruments of torture, and Conservatives were quite happy for our consumer goods to be sweated out of people in hot countries, while we just sold them to one another.
And despite being divided about exactly how to provoke a 'recovery', both main parties have junked any real concern about the fact that we are rapidly using up our planet and heading for an environmental disaster that will make pensions largely unnecessary. There has never been a stronger case for a planned economy, and one with a great big heart.

Olympic gold medalist Hannah Brandt attempts to score goal verses Minnesota Wild Mascot Nordy.Author: Chelsea Heights Elementary PE Program (Collab. with MN Wild)Length: 7 Seconds
On November 28, 2018 Chelsea Heights Elementary School was lucky to have representatives from the Minnesota Wild lead us in an assembly. Nordy, Rusty Kath (in-game host), Minnesota Wild alumni and Stanley Cup champion, Ryan Carter; and Olympic gold medalist, Hannah Brandt joined us for this event. This awesome group shared many important facts about fitness and health. Students were able to submit questions for Hannah and Ryan on the topic of fitness and health. To finish the assembly, two students were teamed up with Ryan Carter or Hannah Brandt with Nordy as goalie. As a last surprise to our school the Minnesota Wild donated awesome new hockey equipment ranging from hockey sticks to goalie pads.
From our whole school, we would like to say thank you to the Minnesota Wild organization as well as Nordy, Rusty, Ryan and Hannah for their time. Their assembly was informative, exciting and engaging.

History of wolves : a novel
Emily Fridlund
FICTION Fridlund Emily
Literary Fiction
""So delicately calibrated and precisely beautiful that one might not immediately sense the sledgehammer of pain building inside this book. And I mean that in the best way. What powerful tension and depth this provides!"-Aimee Bender. Fourteen-year-old Linda lives with her parents in the beautiful, austere woods of northern Minnesota, where their nearly abandoned commune stands as a last vestige of a lost counter-culture world. Isolated at home and an outlander at school, Linda is drawn to the enigmatic, attractive Lily and new history teacher Mr. Grierson. When Mr. Grierson is charged with possessing child pornography, the implications of his arrest deeply affect Linda as she wrestles with her own fledgling desires and craving to belong. And then the young Gardner family moves in across the lake and Linda finds herself welcomed into their home as a babysitter for their little boy, Paul. It seems that her life finally has purpose but with this new sense of belonging she is also drawn into secrets she doesn't understand. Over the course of a few days, Linda makes a set of choices that reverberate throughout her life. As she struggles to find a way out of the sequestered world into which she was born, Linda confronts the life-and-death consequences of the things people do-and fail to do-for the people they love. Winner of the McGinnis-Ritchie award for its first chapter, Emily Fridlund's propulsive and gorgeously written History of Wolves introduces a new writer of enormous range and talent"--
This novel reverberates beyond the page. This had been on my to-read list since it came out, and I'm glad I finally got around to it. I loved the portrayal of the rural Minnesota landscape. I was haunted by the ending. I can't wait to read future books by Emily Fridlund! -Heidi K
Sheila Heti
FICTION Heti Sheila
Literary Fiction
This is a brilliant meditation on one of those great questions of life: To have children, or not? This is very much a book about that idea - it reads more like literary nonfiction or memoir than a novel. There isn't much by way of traditional plot or sense of place - the woman narrator takes us on a journey in her mind as she wrestles with ambivalence about whether or not to procreate. For me, this was a timely read and very reassuring that not everyone feels strongly about whether or not they want children. -Heidi K
Clock Dance
Anne Tyler
FICTION Tyler Anne
Fiction, Literary Fiction
Willa Drake can count on one hand the defining moments of her life. In 1967, she is a schoolgirl coping with her mother's sudden disappearance. In 1977, she is a college coed considering a marriage proposal. In 1997, she is a young widow trying to piece her life back together. And in 2017, she yearns to be a grandmother, yet the prospect is dimming. So, when Willa receives a phone call from a stranger, telling her that her son's ex-girlfriend has been shot, she drops everything and flies across the country to Baltimore. The impulsive decision to look after this woman and her nine-year-old daughter will lead Willa into uncharted territory--surrounded by eccentric neighbors, plunged into the rituals that make a community a family, and forced to find solace in unexpected places.
Anne Tyler is one of my all-time favorite authors and Clock Dance doesn't disappoint. Don't be mislead by the saguro cactus the cover. The novel begins in Arizona but you are soon back in Tyler's Baltimore. If you are an Anne Tyler fan, you will not be disappointed. If you don't know her work, it is time to start reading. -Maeve

When newlyweds Celestial and Roy are separated by Roy's incarceration for a crime he didn't commit, the life they've been trying to build together falls apart. This is a book written as letters between Roy and Celestial, which I really enjoyed. The writing is excellent, and the ending surprised me somewhat while still not being disappointing. -Heidi K

Literary Fiction
In this novel, author Sarah Shoemaker has imagined the backstory of Edward Fairfax Rochester. It's a good read in its own right, but mostly I enjoyed it because it allowed me to relive the story of Jane Eyre. It is faithful to the original, and the details of Mr. Rochester's youth seem plausible and apt. -Heidi L

The tight final minutes came after Miami opened up a point early lead. Haywood opened the game with a dunk, but the Wizards didn't hold the lead again until Haywood's hook shot at 6:28 left in the third quarter gave Washington a 57-56 edge.
The rest of the quarter belonged to the team's dueling stars. Arenas scored nine of Washington's final 13 points in the third quarter. Wade outdid him, tallying Miami's final 10 points, including a last-second layup to tie the game at 66 entering the fourth quarter.
"At one point during the game, I told him, 'This is what you do,"' Richardson said. "'We're right here. Now, you take us home."'
Miami had led by as many as 19 in the opening quarter, going up 27-8 with 3 1/2 minutes left in the first. The Heat led 50-41 at halftime.
"It's amazing as bad as we were in the first quarter they only scored 93 in the game," Washington coach Flip Saunders said.
The Wizards finished the game without starter Mike Miller, who left in the fourth quarter with a left shoulder sprain. Saunders said he is expected to be out seven to 10 days.
NOTES: Miami G Daequan Cook sat out his third straight game with a right shoulder strain. ... This was the first of three meetings between the teams in November. They play again in Miami on Nov. 10. ... Miami swept the series (4-0) last season. ... Haywood was given a technical foul for hanging on the rim after a third-quarter dunk.

How many dishes can you cook on autopilot?
I'm talking about easy meals that your hands can manage on their own, leaving your mind free to ruminate about your hard day at work or help your kids memorize their multiplication tables.
If the answer is zero not counting scrambled eggs or pasta with jar sauce, read on.
The more often you can just cook without worrying through a recipe, the freer, easier and more relaxed dinnertime will be. You and your family will be better fed, too.
You will need to take three steps to get there.
First, you need to learn a few techniques, but not in the time-intensive sense of advanced knife skills or mastering emulsions. Just fundamental skills: roasting, sautéing, broiling. That is, going from raw to cooked.
Second, you need to know the basics of adding flavors: aromatics, spices, herbs. This is entirely subjective. If you love lemon, add the zest as well as the juice. What about garlic, onions, fresh ginger and chiles? Leave them out or pile them on. Use whole spices to add fragrance and texture, and ground spices for their scent alone. Herbs give freshness, brightness and color.
Third, you need to learn to measure by eye or hand. Measuring tools slow you down while you cook and create more mess at the end. This is easily mastered; it's all about getting to know how your pinch relates to the amount of food at hand.
And for anything you cook, tasting as you go is essential. Add more salt, more vinegar, a dash of hot sauce or a drizzle of olive oil before your guests have a chance to wonder what's missing on the plate.
To help you along, here are five basic recipes to build on, the kind that are easy to make on your own once you have the hang of them. Once you absorb their fundamental premises, you'll be able to whip them up without a thought.
Or if you're feeling creative, you can ad-lib, changing the protein, seasonings and the garnishes until you'd hardly even recognize the dish as something you've made before. Take comfort in the familiar or revel in the new: The choice is yours.
For starters, try roasting any fish fillet. That old chestnut about cooking fish for 10 minutes per inch holds true for the most part if you have the oven turned to 400 degrees. Rub down your fillets with oil and salt before roasting, and garnish with lemon afterward. You can add some kind of sauce (pesto, vinaigrette, sriracha) or a handful of toasted almonds, or capers, or olives — or leave them in their purest form.
It doesn't matter what kind of fish you cook. Just keep an eye on it, subtracting a minute or two if you like it on the rare side, or adding time if you prefer it to flake. It's your dinner; take charge of the outcome.
A similar principle applies to roasted vegetables. Slick them with oil, choosing olive, coconut or peanut if you want to taste it, or safflower or grapeseed if you don't. Season with salt and pepper, and spread out on a rimmed baking sheet.
Roast at higher heat (450 degrees) for vegetables with a high moisture content — peppers, mushrooms, eggplant, broccoli et al. — and slightly lower (425 degrees) for denser roots and squashes. Then top it all with some fried eggs and a dollop of yogurt to make it a meal.
You can also riff on top of the stove. Take some thin meat cutlets (veal, chicken, pork or turkey), sear them in butter and garlic and finish with lemon. The goal here: brown both the butter and protein at once using high heat, and add a minimum of ingredients that are aromatic enough to carry the dish. The fewer ingredients you use, the faster you can get dinner on the table. Butter, garlic and lemon will get you there.
Or use your skillet for simmering a vegetarian chili made from pantry staples: canned beans and tomatoes, onion and garlic, spices. A bright homemade garnish of onions pickled in lime juice is worth the extra five minutes; it gives the dish exuberance and verve.
Mastering the last dish of meatballs does mean memorizing a basic ratio, but a simple one. For every pound of ground protein (beef, veal, pork, turkey, chicken or fish), you'll need 1 teaspoon salt, 1 egg and a generous handful of bread crumbs (a half-cup for those who want to measure the first time). Then add what you want to perk them up: ground spices, chopped fresh herbs, a little minced onion or garlic, some Parmesan. Fry or broil.
And with that, dinner is served.

And to Drink … An All-Purpose Home Wine List
Just as a meal can generally be cobbled together from ingredients on hand, so, too, should you always have a few versatile wines available that can go with almost anything. A dry but pleasing red like a good cru Beaujolais and a dry white like a St.-Véran or Chablis are essentials that can match up with any of these recipes. You can easily add on, though, to the bare minimum. A Chianti is great if you toss together a dish of pasta and tomato sauce. German spätlese rieslings are wonderful if you call for Chinese food rather than cook. I like to have a fino sherry in the fridge for cheese and nuts, and always have Champagne on hand, just because.

Curzon plan picked for Ladywell Playtower
|The Curzon proposal
Of the four proposals shortlisted to restore the derelict building, the Curzon plan was ranked joint-first by Council officers alongside a rival cinema scheme from Picturehouse, and came second to the Picturehouse plan in the public consultation. A petition against Picturehouse gained momentum in recent days, due to the pay and conditions offered to the parent group's workers.
The Curzon scheme was produced in partnership with developers Guildmore and will include "a mix of residential, nursery and supported living uses across the remainder of the site.". @mayorbullock has announced he has selected @CurzonCinemas @Guildmore to build a 3 screen 220 seat 🎥 cinema 🎬 at Ladywell Playtower 👍 🍿👏🏾— Lewisham Council (@LewishamCouncil) November 15, 2017
The result is a fantastic turnaround in the fortunes of the building - which once looked doomed - and great news for Ladywell as a destination.

WELL there's been only one story this week.
It's been dragging on and on. Hardly a day has gone by without it warranting a mention. But after all the talk and all the waiting, Scotland finally scored a try at the peanut-chasing in Wales! Who would have believed it?
Only joking. Rangers serving notice to go into Administration and the tax man quickly retaliating in the courts has sent shock waves through the football world far beyond Scotland.
A world famous club built on tradition and 140 years of history has tumbled from its pedestal, going the way of lesser lights Dundee (twice), Motherwell, Gretna and Livingston, where I had first-hand knowledge of what Rangers players and staff can expect. Believe me, it is not going to be pleasant.
Administration is like a plague sweeping through your club. The bean counters come in with their laptops and their files and go through everything.
At Livingston, we found ourselves having to seek approval to get the most simple things, like light bulbs and toilet rolls.
At Almondvale, we had to reduce the playing staff and star striker Francisco Quino, the player who scored the club's first ever SPL goal, was a high profile casualty.
One after another players entered a room to be told if they still had a job or if they had to pack their bags and leave immediately. It's not only players who will suffer here – cooks, cleaners, security and all the different departments that keep a football club going will feel the pain.
Whether they like it or not, Rangers fans can expect a drastic cull of players. From my experience, an Administrator doesn't care about the personalities.
I have said to anyone who wanted to listen that I believe this was the plan all along when Craig Whyte and his crew got involved.
Whereas the wee man with the bunnet, Fergus McCann, told the world and his friends of his plan to salvage Celtic years ago – and leave the club in a healthy state and himself with a wad of money in his own bank account – Whyte has been slippery and evasive from day one.
But with the heat well and truly on and tax demands fluttering around Ibrox like confetti, it's no surprise even the diehards are questioning whether they should be blindly follow, following this man.
THE handshake row at Old Trafford has been another big talking point. Louis Suarez of Liverpool, for me, was an absolute disgrace at Old Trafford when he blanked Patrice Evra. But when Fred Goodwin has lost his knighthood, I have officially downgraded King Kenny Dalglish to plain Kenny now for his shocking after-match interview when he tried to defend Suarez. Dalglish has been one of the true greats of Scottish football but he really went down in my estimation.
On the England front, I can't say I was surprised when Fabio Capello jumped ship and the fans want Harry Redknapp brought in. My only worry is that 'Arry would take Joe Jordan to assist him. The thought of big Joe in an England tracksuit would sent shivers down my spine.
ON a final note, it's been another good week for Scottish golf on the back of Paul Lawrie's great win in the Middle East. It was Stephen Gallacher's turn to shine in Dubai and four sub 70 rounds saw him finish runner up and bank a nice cheque. He also won a £60,000 Merc for a hole-in-one. But I'll bet the much-needed Ryder Cup points meant more to him than the motor. I really hope the renaissance in Scottish golf builds up a head of steam this season.

The wooden staircase from drawing room leads to the first floor which has 3 beautifully done bedrooms and a small sit out balcony with brass ironmongery for watching and grazing the nature. The bed rooms are self-sufficient with beautiful white linen with satin stripe & done in 300 Thread count, soft duvets feather pillows of hi quality compliment the set up.

text: It looked like it snowed today. Low clouds and a light drizzle obscured the mountains for most of the day, but a few holes confirmed that there is snow falling up high. I may go check it out this weekend, if my car is in order. Here is a little of Graham in Placer this January skiing the Lubner trees.

How quickly we can forget those deep lessons that we've learned. That's why it becomes more and more important to be a student. To always learn. To be moldable, to take in new information or often information that was lost. And to know when to act upon it.
It's like, when you stop doing an old habit, that thing that seemed ever so familiar and routine, once it's been stopped and weeks have passed, it's like you never knew how you once did that thing or you somehow forget the lesson that was learned.
As I skim some of my old blog posts, I read my words with a sense of surprise and revelation. Did I write that? Did I learn that? I don't remember learning that? Did I really feel that way? And the answer to all of those questions is a resounding yes.
And once again, I'm learning.
We're about to hit the half way mark of 2012. Can you believe it? It's about to be June. And now we stand and watch and wait, to see if the promises of this year will hold up.
I can honestly say that I've learned more--or rather, put into practice more of what I've learned in this year, than the past few years combined.
I'm learning to trust again. And to trust when God is speaking.
The last post was titled, "Ominous", and although no one died, my car did get towed yesterday. I know. Weird. It was a surreal situation. Perhaps I'll share the story later...
But I was prepared for such a juke move. Some practical things were put in place (ie: Emergency Fund--If you don't know about Dave Ramsey yet, you need to. The end.) and I didn't have some crazy emotional breakdown. In fact, I felt an upsurgence of peace during the whole ordeal. So yes, maybe there was a particular "death" to an area of my finances, but there was a quick sense of resurrection. It did my heart good.
And now I'm a bit nervous and expectant of the things that are to come in this second half of the year. But I'll be sure to share the highs and the lows as we make this fresh start.
Wisdom's Knocking:
Things are often set in its place, only to move again.

Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney is applauding increased accountability for the RCMP one day before a federal watchdog is to release a report the Mounties fought to keep from being made public.
Blaney and RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson held a press conference Monday to announce the new RCMP accountability act, which got parliamentary approval in June, 2013, is now in force.
Blaney said the Enhancing Royal Canadian Mounted Police Accountability Act "ushers in significant changes to further modernize and transform our national police force."
The press conference comes one day before a report into the RCMP's conduct is to be tabled in Parliament.
Public Sector Integrity Commissioner Mario Dion says he'll table on Tuesday a report about "findings of wrongdoing" following an investigation into the Ottawa air section of the RCMP.
It seems the report could be significant: the government went to Federal Court to try to prevent Dion from tabling the report. The court dismissed the injunction motion.
Report delayed
The report was supposed to be tabled the week of Nov. 17, but was delayed by the court proceedings.
Paulson told reporters Monday that he couldn't comment on the case, but said the RCMP would respect the court's decision.
Blaney said the RCMP already has two organizations to supervise the Mounties' actions, the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP and the RCMP External Review Committee.
The new accountability act, a press release from Public Safety says, updates the RCMP's human resources management. It also:
- Makes members subject to the code of conduct both on and off-duty, in or outside of Canada.
- allows misconduct to be addressed faster and at the lowest appropriate level.
- places greater focus on remedial, corrective and educative solutions rather than punishment.
- specifically name harrassmentas a contravention.

Holly did her own take on grafiti...writing 'I love Mummy,I love Daddy, I love Emma' on the pavement...finished off with 'I love everyone' wriiten on our doorstep!!I have loads of photos but can't upload them whilst on the laptop :(
Today the girls and I went to Whipsnade Zoo with my Mum & Dad.Yet more sunshine and by the end of the day a very sleepy Holly! I love going there, it has so many memories from when I was a child and went there with my Mum & Dad and sister (back in the days when we wore identical outfits!)Lots more photos taken...I am going to bore you rigid once we are back to 'PC normal' !!

SAILING WORLD Magazine's
1998 Boat of the Year
(Atlantic City, NJ)- February 6, 1998. In a gala ceremony held at the Sail Expo Boatshow, the J/90 was crowned the Sportboat of the Year during the prestigious Boat of the Year (BOTY) Awards. Some quotes from the judges:
"This boat is well balanced, drives like a dream and has speed to burn."
"The real fun starts when you turn the corner. Acceleration is the norm rather than the exception."
"The best thing about the J/90 is that it's high tech and high performance, but can easily be sailed just for fun....whatever your preference, it won't be dull!"
J/90 combines handling ease & grand-prix performance
with the stability of a 40 footer in a super-charged 30.
At least that's the opinion of the three families who designed and built the first boat. The J/90 is more stable and easier to sail fast by fewer crew. She weighs in at 3,100 lbs. on a 27.0 foot waterline. The result is one of the lightest sailboats of her size with a displacement/length ratio of 70.
The forgiving hull is shaped for easy control by sailors of all levels with very little wetted surface to slow you down. Generous reserve buoyancy, narrow beam, low center of gravity, and balanced hull form make the J/90 an easy boat to steer even at large angles of heel. This means more fun going fast while in total control.
Add in, J/90's high power to weight ratios, both upwind and down, and you'll get a turbo-charged ride for a few ultra-wide grins! Construction by TPI Composites in Warren, Rhode Island features an optimum combination of high technology materials to reduce weight and increase strength without compromise.
J/90 is built to meet ABS specifications for offshore yacht construction. Hull and deck use carbon fiber biaxial and unidirectional inner skins, pre-molded Corecell A-500 foam core material, and a Kevlar/E-glass hybrid outer skin. The entire sandwich laminate is molded SCRIMP technology using epoxy resin. The hull & deck are then post cured to 140deg F in TPI's closed oven. Longitudinal hull stringers and transverse keel floors are also infused with the primary hull structure (not tabbed in later as a secondary bond) to again assure optimum high strength. Total hull, interior structure, and deck weight is less than 900 lbs. The result is a strong, lightweight sailing machine never before offered in a production sailboat of this size. Much of the weight saved in structure allows for greater stability in the form of a deep draft fin/bulb keel. Built with a cast NAB bronze fin (not iron) set into a lead bulb, this low CG keel yields a ballast/displacement ratio beyond 50%.
Some other unique J90 features include: A carbon reinforced rudder blade - with carbon post, tiller, and Harken bearings - designed for all-around steering efficiency at any speed; deck hardware and running and standing rigging optimized to provide maximum strength, minimum weight, easy handling, and long term durability; Harken's new "Black Magic" hardware is used throughout including winches and adjustable leads for the jib and genoa sheets; Bow and stern rails as well as stanchions and double lifelines are standard for offshore sailing; Chainplates are built of lightweight titanium; The 15' cockpit is comfortable, functional, and unobstructed for easy crew movement.
A two-spreader, carbon fiber rig engineered and built by Hall Spars, includes carbon fiber boom, Navtec rod rigging, the most up-to-date Samson low stretch halyards, Hall's new AirVang, and Technora backstay.
The J/90 carries 600 square feet of upwind sail area in mainsail and 150% genoa for a sail area-to-displacement ratio of 45. The 1,080sf masthead asymmetrical spinnaker is tacked to a retractable 7.5 foot carbon fiber bowsprit, increasing the sail area to 1400 sq. ft. for downwind speed thrills.
The 7/8 fractional rig is designed for a sail inventory of mainsail, 150% genoa, 100% jib, large running and small reaching asymmetric spinnaker - both flown from the masthead. Rigging and control systems are simple and sophisticated.
The interior, while simple, is functional, with sleeping space for two people on mid-ship pipe berths. Also provided is outboard motor storage and space for galley facilities and a portable head if an owner should desire to add.Introduced: 1997 Built to: Hull #5 Last Model Year: 1998
Sailing for Life in Better Sailboats
Sailing is the ultimate freedom, the experience of being at one with nature and the sea, powered only by the wind and one's imagination. It's one of the few "life sports" that offers both a relaxing escape as well as an invigorating challenge. You pick your level of comfort and excitement. Sailing is never the same twice - each time on the water with your sailboat is a unique adventure that can enrich friendships, strengthen family ties, and refresh one's own sense of well-being. How many other outdoor activities can be shared with three or more family generations? It's been said there are two types of sailors in the world - the young and the young-at-heart.
What a Difference a J Makes
Fulfilling those sailing dreams starts with finding a sailboat that fits you - whether you aspire to sail close to home, cruise to distant shores, or take up the challenge of competitive sailing. Performance differences between sailboats are greater than differences between golf clubs, tennis rackets, skis or cars. A well-designed sailboat, like a good sports car, is an extension of its owner. It could take years of sailing other boats to learn the difference that good design and quality make to one's sailing enjoyment. Or, you can save time and take advantage of what we've designed into every "J."
