Kick off your morning with this assortment of healthy breakfast recipes from casseroles and quiches, to muffins and candy rolls. This simple yet tasty morning choose-me-up features no fewer than three of the perfect meals to eat for breakfast The bananas and whole-grain rye bread are high in resistant starch, to help boost metabolism, whereas the almond butter provides starvation-curbing protein and wholesome monounsaturated fat.
The bananas in this simpler-than-pie dessert—all you want is a knife and a microwave—are a wealthy supply of resistant starch, a sort of wholesome carbohydrate that helps you burn calories and eat less. We're all about good recipes, and about high quality house cooking that everyone can enjoy. Grapefruit is likely one of the greatest meals for weight loss , research present—perhaps due to the effect it has on insulin, a fats-storage hormone. What's extra, this recipe features two sorts of hot pepper: chili powder and jalapeños. This straightforward yogurt and granola recipe requires only a few ingredients—our favorite is the dark chocolate bits! For a wholesome on-the-go breakfast, these fruit-and-yogurt smoothies are good.

Dolans Presents have announced that singer-songwriter Aine Cahill will play a Dolans Warehouse gig on December 13th.
Since making her TV debut to millions in 2016, Aine Cahill's career has skyrocketed. Plucked from a pub stage at Glastonbury to perform live on the BBC's festival coverage, before Coldplay's set on the Sunday night, she mesmerised viewers who could scarcely believe that she wasn't already a star.
In fact, the then 21 year old was a naïve newcomer from a village in County Cavan, being managed by her postman. Oh, and she'd just spent a week sleeping in a van.
Overnight, she saw 150,000 sign up on Spotify to hear more of her passionate, powerhouse vocals and selfwritten, storytelling songs. She was inundated with offers from excited industry insiders.
Within weeks, she had a manager, who has represented everyone from David Bowie and Depeche Mode to the Rolling Stones and the Spice Girls. She signed to a major international booking agency renowned for representing global superstars
"It was like finding myself in a fairy tale," says Áine. "Since the age of 19, all I'd wanted to do was make music, but I couldn't see how that would happen. Suddenly, I could spend my days writing songs and my nights singing them. For a while, I worried that I would wake up and discover it had been a dream."
Having immersed herself in Lana Del Rey, Marina & The Diamonds and Marilyn Monroe films, Áine began writing songs, including White Piano, inspired by Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
She got a job in a hotel to pay for a local producer to record an EP, Paper Crown, which she posted on Soundcloud. When it was named the best unsigned EP of 2014 by a music magazine, Áine worked more shifts to fund her playing sporadic shows with a band, including a competition-winning slot at Ireland's Electric Picnic festival. She self-released the sensual, cinematic song Black Dahlia and began picking up radio play.
In early 2016, Áine twice took the band to London, where they played Camden's Dublin Castle and got an invite to perform at Glastonbury for no fee.
"We went for a full week and all slept in a van," says Áine. "We were only there to do a set on the Friday in what we thought would be a tent, but turned out to be a pub. I did 13 original songs and two covers –Teen Idle and Bad & Beautiful, a mash-up of Gaga's Bad Romance and Lana's Young and Beautiful – and by the end there were 60 people watching, which was amazing. Afterwards, we got a message saying we'd been picked to play the backstage bit for TV."
On the Saturday, watching Adele's headline set, Áine kept checking her phone, waiting for a call that never came. Finally, on Sunday, she was given the slot pre Coldplay and, with just a pianist, performed a spellbinding, acoustic rendition of Black Dahlia.
Áine was widely described as an Irish Adele, although a wisecracking Lanameets-Marina would have been more accurate. What was obvious to everyone who saw her, however, was that Áine was a voice in a generation who wouldn't require comparisons for long.
Áine saw out the year that changed her life playing her biggest ever gig, a charity show at Dublin's 3Arena alongside Kodaline and Gavin James. 2017 was spent playing scores of shows and festivals and supporting Kodaline on tour. Last March, Áine put the intoxicating track Plastic online and in October released her final indie single, the slinky show-stopper Blood Diamonds, before signing with East West Records.
"It's actually the third song I ever wrote, but I wanted it to be produced properly," says Áine, who teamed up with the London-based musician Courage (Stormzy, Ray BLK) for the release. "I pictured this lady wearing furs and diamonds, believing she's special, but really she's a delusional bitch. I'm disgusted by blood diamonds. What sort of person could wear them for the sake of showing off?"
This year will mostly be devoted to writing and releasing new material, although Áine continues to play live and a few festivals have been booked.
She has been co-writing, but only on her own terms. "I've got here on my own songs," she says. "I'm happy to have help and I won't be a bitch, but I'll never sing a song that isn't me. I have to be myself."
Her forthcoming single, Beauty Is A Lie is case in point, it's a sassy, spectral beauty "calling out all the bullshit we see day to day on social media. We all do it. People only show an edited version of themselves, the side they think is 'the best', but this is the world we are living in. I hate it, but I love it at the same time"

#2 Kurt Busch retires.
Kurt Busch signed a one year deal with Stewart Haas Racing to return to the #41 Ford for the 2018 season, but it is unlikely that he will continue past that. Not only is that evident by the nature of the deal, but also by the fact that he hasn't won a race in over a year and really isn't really staying that competitive either.
While the former Daytona 500 winner has two top-fives and seven top-tens, which is good enough to land him seventh in the standings, his teams sponsorship issues mixed with his sub par performance is going to lead to him being let go by the end of the year. In fact, he may even retire from the sport completely to peruse broadcasting.

Why Do They Want Dinner Every Night?!
With changing our clocks "back" - this ending of daylight...I mean, Daylight Saving Time...I think we are all feeling a bit out of sorts. Our body clocks are alarmed and we are getting less light than usual. Plus, all these damp rainy days? Aaaaaah, it's enough to make a mama want to just curl up and drink endless cups of tea under a soft blanket!
This rainy Monday morning, my plan du jour is to get organized so I can grab those coveted minutes of tea-infused bliss! I, unlike many, adore Mondays. Once my best girl is on the bus and my hubs is off to work, I get the house to myself and I get to marinate in the sounds of silence and the hum of my dishwasher and washing machine (not at the same time, mind you).
With my ginger cinnamon tea next to me, keeping me company, it's time for a girl chat!
Let's get real, mamas. As much as I love cooking and embrace it as a vehicle of expressing love for others, there are plenty of times that I would much prefer to attend to other things than making lunch for myself, or yes, even making dinner for my best girl! I know, #scandalous! Can you relate?
There are ways for us to make it easier though. We can make some steps simpler in order to get a tasty result while also showing a little love for ourselves. Let's face it: your family wants to eat EVERY DAY, and that won't ever stop! I won't mention the dreaded words with the initials MP…("meal prep"), because those words fill me with almost as much dread as the words "sleep training."
There is help. I give you, dear friends, the humble muffin tin.
The thing that is so lovable about the muffin tin (aside from the making of yummy muffins), is that they can help us create kid-sized meals and snacks because the very size of muffins are not only endearing but also non-threatening.
Have you ever noticed that when you give your child a large portion of some food at a meal, they seem to eat less of it? I think it's a psychological phenomenon, like looking up at a mountain and feeling anxious to climb it. I've proven my own theory by giving my best girl both a tiny bit of something and a larger amount (of food I know she likes) and she always feels better about eating the tiny bit.
So, what about the muffin tin now? Yes, I have used muffin tins to prepare foods that kids eat willingly. And I mean lots of kids.
Let's start with the one we made in class just yesterday.
5 Make-Ahead Foods You Can Prepare in a Muffin Tin
1) Pasta Frittata There are so many things to like about this recipe. The first is that there is actually protein and vegetables inside and kids love to eat them! They are like little pasta cakes (what could be bad!). The second is that you can put your leftover pasta to use! Finally, what I love about this recipe is that it's very flexible and you can use any vegetable you have on-hand plus it's very forgiving because you don't have to be that careful about measuring the ingredients! #momwin Here's that recipe!
2) Korean Egg Breads (Gyeranbbang) When I tell you that I've personally witnessed hundreds of children eat up these little breads, I am so serious. They are delightful, really. They are actually a kind of muffin, though traditionally they are baked in oblong pans in South Korea. The ingredients are very simple and you most likely have every single one of them! There's flour, eggs, butter, sugar, milk, baking powder, vanilla, scallions and salt and pepper. Plus, you can be flexible with the fillings you use. I usually use vegetable protein crumbles, and many people use ham or bacon. Don't be put off by the sweet and savory ingredients - it really works!
3) Meatballs or Meatloaf. You can be really flexible with your seasonings here. When I got home from teaching, I had a bunch of the pasta frittata filling left and I made another dozen of those babies. Since I had the muffin pans out, I thought I would just continue down the muffin pan path and I decided to make some meatballs in the muffin pans!
I had some ground turkey that I had planned to make burgers with, and the ease and simplicity of the muffin pans changed my mind! I chopped up some garlic, red onions and cilantro, added some panko bread crumbs, cumin and adobo and gave the pans a spray with oil and popped those balls in there! After 20 minutes, I flipped them and cooked them another 5! I made another batch with tomato sauce in the pans. I admit, 1 or 2 of them may have fallen into my mouth! Yum!
4) Chicken Pot Pies. A few months ago, when I played around with the meals I could make with 2 chicken breasts, (see blog post here) I made little pot pies and we ate those babies up! You can get fancy and make your own pie crust, or pick up a ready-made one (make sure you have 2 crusts for this recipe). Same goes for the chicken. You can make your own, or get a ready-made one from your local store. The ingredients are simple: chicken breast, carrots, potatoes, peas, onions, butter, flour, milk and chicken broth. You can bake them and then freeze them, too. Dinner: done!
5) Little Tacos. On Tuesdays or any day! The taco shell is a corn tortilla, and the kids will enjoy pressing out a circle from the tortilla from either a cookie cutter, drinking glass or a large mason jar. The kids can also put the circles into the muffin pan. I would spray the bottom of the muffin tin with a little oil just in case, because I wouldn't want the taco cups to stick. If you're feeling brave, then skip it!
Drain and rinse a can of your favorite beans and then mix them with a bit of cumin and salt. You can also use red onions, garlic, grated carrots, green beans or whatever you have handy. Add a bit of grated cheese onto the tortilla circles, then the beans and vegetables and then add some more grated cheese on top. After cooking them for 20 minutes at 350 F, and letting them sit for 5 minutes, you can add salsa, avocado, sour cream or whatever you like!
I hope you have the best post-Daylight Saving Time day possible! Be careful out
there, friends! Do let me know if you found any of these tricks helpful! I'm going to go eat my meatballs now!

There was a little bit of irrigation pipe remaining in our paddock bed and with the use of the modified metal frame we had a climbing frame and a long section for bush beans.

The Pooless project is just over one week old. I automatically don't reach for the shampoo or soap any longer. A brisk rub with finger tips and rinse of the hair and then the soft bristle back scrub brush rubbed all over the body. The scalp rub with the finger tips also cleans the finger nails. No negative body odours have appeared and I feel quite clean and not greasy. Less time in the shower as well.
The cattle are eating the sprouted grain with gusto and we have started to slowly increase the ration while decreasing the hay. The change in mix is miniscule but steady. With the rain now refreshing the pastures ahead the plan is to sprouted grain feed for a month and then wean them off it (depending on condition of pasture. This should lift their condition a notch higher.
The tomatoes are doing reasonably well but not as good as past years. The suspicion is that the chicken litter applied from our chook pen was not as rich as in previous years because of fewer birds. This is being addressed with the addition of more birds. Three hatched a month ago in the new incubator. Then four more two weeks ago. We have also ordered six sexed, old style laying day old Rhode Island Reds from Barter and Sons Hatchery. They arrive on Friday. This must be one of the few sources of sexed chickens.

According to a Johns Hopkins earth scientist, the hole in the Antarctic ozone layer has caused changes in the way that waters in those southern oceans mix – a situation that has the potential to alter the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and eventually could have an impact on global climate change. In a paper published in today's issue of the journal Science, Darryn W. Waugh and his team show that subtropical intermediate waters in the southern oceans have become "younger" as the upwelling, circumpolar waters have gotten "older" – changes that are consistent with the fact that surface winds have strengthened as the ozone layer has thinned.

Johns Hopkins Researchers Aim to Boost the Flow of Wind Energy into the Power Grid
Wind farms are a fast-growing source of "clean and green" power, but a key problem remains: the wind behaves erratically. On any given day, the air outdoors may move in powerful gusts or gentle breezes—or may not move at all. This leads to an uneven output from wind farms and makes it tougher for alternative energy producers to work smoothly with power grids that must send a steady flow of electricity to homes and businesses. To address these challenges, the National Science Foundation has awarded two grants totaling $6 million to Johns Hopkins researchers and their collaborators.
'Large, Dirty' Companies Get Greener as Way to Earn More Green, Says Carey Business School Researcher

Next: I18N Functions, Previous: Bitwise Functions, Up: Built-in [Contents][Index]
gawk provides two functions that let you distinguish
the type of a variable.
This is necessary for writing code
that traverses every element of an array of arrays
(see section Arrays of Arrays), and in other contexts.
Return a true value if x is an array. Otherwise, return false.
Return one of the following strings, depending upon the type of x:
x is an array.
x is a strongly typed regexp (see section Strongly Typed Regexp Constants).
x is a number.
x is a string.
x is a number that started life as user input, such as a field or
the result of calling
split(). (I.e., x has the strnum
attribute; see section String Type versus Numeric Type.)
x is a scalar variable that has not been assigned a value yet. For example:
BEGIN { # creates a[1] but it has no assigned value a[1] print typeof(a[1]) # unassigned }
x has not yet been used yet at all; it can become a scalar or an array. The typing could even conceivably differ from run to run of the same program! For example:
BEGIN { print "initially, typeof(v) = ", typeof(v) if ("FOO" in ENVIRON) make_scalar(v) else make_array(v) print "typeof(v) =", typeof(v) } function make_scalar(p, l) { l = p } function make_array(p) { p[1] = 1 }
isarray() is meant for use in two circumstances. The first is when
traversing a multidimensional array: you can test if an element is itself
an array or not. The second is inside the body of a user-defined function
(not discussed yet; see section User-Defined Functions), to test if a parameter is an
array or not.
NOTE: Using
isarray()at the global level to test variables makes no sense. Because you are the one writing the program, you are supposed to know if your variables are arrays or not. And in fact, due to the way
gawkworks, if you pass the name of a variable that has not been previously used to
gawkends up turning it into a scalar.
typeof() function is general; it allows you to determine
if a variable or function parameter is a scalar, an array, or a strongly
typed regexp.

How was your weekend? Mine was rather quiet although I did gatecrash an 8 year old's cinema birthday party because it was to see Big Hero 6. What a cute Disney movie - you laugh, you cry and it makes you feel good. I'm also seriously considering having a Go Go Tomago hairstyle. As it happens I have a hairdresser's appointment tomorrow... Is it too much to ask for the style of a toon?
I'm also half way through this thoroughly entertaining and charming book from the author of "The hundred-year-old man who climbed out of the window and disappeared"

A while ago I got a gig modeling in a tiny Portland studio. We listened to distant thumps from the yoga studio on the other side of the building until the experimental trumpet troupe on the floor above started practicing. I remember gazing at stacks of canvases and stretcher bars, salvaged wood panels and shelves of paints and being propelled into an overwhelming sense of contentment. I'd finally achieved the artist's model cliche, without the emotional abuse.
The studio belonged to Timothy Powers Wilson, a Rhode Island School of Design graduate living in Portland, enjoying some well-deserved artistic success. Wilson teaches at local artspaces and schools, maintaining an active studio practice that frequently takes him to New York and beyond. I managed to pin him down for an interview, and we began with his artistic background.
TW My dad is a woodworker and my mom's a piano teacher; from a really early age I was learning music, and that made me really aware of my hands and different tactilities. I would go to [my dad's] woodshed a lot when I was really young and watch him work. We lived on a rural farm in Maine - outhouse, chicken coop, stone wall fence. The aesthetic of growing up, I got a reverence for this derelict, rural, strength in things. Very Andrew Wyeth-y I guess.
I wasn't going to pursue visual art, but I got accepted to RISD and decided to go there. I get very compelled and obsessed about what i'm doing, and realized I couldn't continue to do music while I was doing the visual arts. I couldn't focus on both as much as I wanted to. I negated the musical aspect and really plunged into visual arts.
I went to school for illustration, learned a lot of technical skills. I was going to pursue concept design [but] my senior year I had a total breakdown of what I wanted to do and backed out from all that. I would get so caught up in these little tiny moments in paintings, thinking about myself and the act of painting and the experience rather than what the product would be and how to dictate what was on the page to make it easiest for the viewer. There was no poeticism in [that] work. I moved to New York briefly and it was too overwhelming to think what to do while affording a lifestyle. I moved back to Maine; I could afford to live here and I made a lot of work I wasn't happy about but at a least I was able to make [it].
I was trying to work from my head and I couldn't afford models or anything. I didn't want to use photography and I was trying to make these paintings based off experiences that never actually had. So I randomly went out, brought a little makeshift easel and started painting [outside]. It totally transformed what i was doing. I realized I needed to start having more experiences and documenting that to bring back to the studio to vocalize and develop. I think people saw that I was enjoying my experience and since then it's been really amazing just to continue to make work [and] afford that lifestyle as an artist. That's what I've been doing; expanding on my experiences and bringing them into larger paintings in the studio.
NB Do you have an MFA?
TW Nope.
NB Would you?
TW Honestly, every winter I debate. I've applied to some programs and I've gotten in, but it was really just because the MFA would afford me two years of working time. Higher education you put yourself in a community that you wouldn't otherwise have, certainly it's great inspiration. I am fortunate enough [to] have things perhaps some artists don't. I have a solo show this summer, galleries that are interested, an outlet and a studio space. If I was going to do grad school I would have to pause that.
It's different things for different folks; I know RISD isn't for everyone. It's a great school but it could kill you. It's like a bootcamp, it created a need for me to feel like I'm constantly doing something and being productive and efficient. That's not the artistic pace for some people. Some need to relax and let things slowly happen, maybe they require grad school to get a body of work done. Right now I don't quite need that but I think it's certainly a great, valid thing.
NB You use what you do in the field as something to work from in the studio, correct?
TW Yeah, they're just preliminary studies. It's kind of cheesy but there's this graphic novel called the Watchmen and the whole slogan is "who watches the watchmen?" The plain air painting [is] not just landscapes but it's also figures and sketching people while I'm at coffee shops. It made me so aware of everything. Who paints the painters? The painter himself has to.
We need to engage in an experience, in an environment but still be withdrawn enough to be aware of how we're experiencing it and what's going on, while still having an emotional interaction but also documenting it. It's made me so fully aware of everything that I'm doing because it's all about the painting now.
NB Since you've become a full-time artist.
TW It's an monastic thing - I've dedicated myself to this art form and everything that I do revolves around painting because I want it to. I'm very obsessed with it.
NB What do you think about the longevity of that?
TW It does take a toll; whether it's a financial longevity or a mental longevity. Financially I'm excited about things happening, but right now I'm pretty exhausted mentally. I'm so lucky that my work is all sold, but then galleries approach me and want a solo show in a month and a half. It's frustrating because I know I can do a certain kind of work and I don't want to be a machine. I want to be happy about everything that I do. Already with each success from a show it requires even more dedication because I want to push myself further and there's more publicity.
It's a lifestyle I wouldn't wish upon people who don't want it. I don't have relationships and that's just what it's had to be because I revolve around doing residencies, I never know when the light's going to be right that I want to go outside and paint. I just need to be able to do these things. It's exciting but excruciating at the same time.
NB You work a lot in between realism and abstraction. I don't know if this is just the company that I keep, but I find this almost vitriolic relationship between the two fields.
TW What I realized, and why I'm frustrated by the lack of time to pursue these paintings, is I don't like a lot of abstract art.There are people that use that term to skirt their way around. They're not making abstract art, they're just making marks. Maybe what they're making is interesting if they have interesting colors and shapes but it's not abstraction. You need to have something to abstract.
Even in landscapes if I stubble things out and rework things, I like slowly making that abstraction occur and still showing the essence of this thing I'm experiencing. It's based off a tangible object, experience or emotion that's grown out of looking. For some reason painting is just so poignant, even with the figure I find it difficult. I can do gestural sketches in charcoal but for some reason paint pigment there needs to be more. I can't do evocative figures in strange poses that are too indicative of things, it just seems too forced. I've realized that for me it's more exciting just to deconstruct the figure in paint, and layer. The deconstruction of this beautiful thing into abstraction is what I'm interested in. I'm rendering and then unrendering.
NB Pollock wasn't working from an object but, in theory, he's working from his own, inner…
TW …he was about the experience of paint, the expressive motion of the artist making the work and being documented by seeing that movement. He was abstracting his literal energy. I'm more about that documentation because I feel like everything I do is already going to have my emotional empathy. Because painting is a communicative thing, it's helpful to have an experience that others might be able to themselves have. People can cognify what something might be and be a bit more interested in furthering that discussion, whereas if you're doing a Jackson Pollock thing…his painting is really selfish, it's just all about him doing it. I prefer to be able to relate something to the viewer, not in terms of sales or anything but because I want people to have this experience. That's my way of interacting.
NB What are your ideas on collaboration between artists?
TW My favorite kind of collaboration is collaboration in the way that individual works coexist, less working on the same thing. I'm always excited for it but I want to do my thing and it's frustrating to loosen the reins. I curated this show last year in New York and it was great to have works of people I really admire who are just doing their thing, and hang them next to my own.
NB Hinging back to longevity; do you see this being something that you work with for a long period of time, or do you see yourself moving into other projects
TW In terms of an artistic lifestyle, I can't see myself doing anything other than visual [art].
NB You don't think about going back to music?
TW I do still play music. What I do is I play guitar [in a] random tuning, not even a tuning i'll just make the strings anything. I'll sit down and I'll play something and make a song or a melody and the next time i pick up the guitar I'll just do another random thing. I won't worry about the stress of being able to perfect that song.
Painting is actually very difficult for me; I find drawing so much easier and music has been so much easier and instantly gratifying. I'm kind of obsessed with conquering the beast. It gives me something; I can constantly be learning about everything with painting.
In terms of longevity I really just want to push it as far as I can and I am ready to dedicate and sacrifice whatever I can to make it work. All the things that I've done like, when I've had to randomly crash at my studio, I just do it because I know it's what I have to do in order to make the paintings. There's never any glimmer of doubt or anything.
Wilson has a solo show at Sloane Merrill Gallery in Boston, opening on Friday (February 19).
I've seen a lot of art in person and a lot of photos of art on the internet. They're not the same.

Today on the way to school, Lucy asked me, "Mom, what's your dream?" Stunned by her question, I said, "Well, um, I guess to write a book."
"Oh, well, I AM writing a book. Except sometimes I get writer's cramp, and I don't know what to write."
"You mean writer's block?"
"Yes, but I call it writer's cramp because it hurts."
Hurts, indeed.

Microsoft has posted a new TV commercial for the Surface Pro 4. It takes a big shot at Apple's recent ad that claimed the iPad Pro was a computer, stating the Surface Pro 4 has a powerful Intel processor and can run full Office apps.
The iPad Pro commercial is labeled "What's a computer" and tries to claim the tablet, with its optional keyboard combined with its touchscreen and pen, is somehow different that other PCs.
Microsoft's new Surface Pro 4 ad is called "What's a computer? Just ask Cortana". It correctly states that it has a more powerful Intel Core i7 processor, along with a way to run full Office PC applications, rather than the mobile Office apps that the iPad Pro can run. The Surface Pro 4 also has an optional keyboard, with the addition of a trackpad, along with external ports that the iPad Pro does not have.
What do you think of Microsoft's response to Apple's iPad Pro campaign with its Surface Pro 4 ad? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Last fall I designed my tiny dream house in a workshop called Less is More, which was taught by Andreas Stavropoulos and Dave Cain at Yestermorrow Design-Build School. As I was deliberating about heating options, my classmate John joked, "Sheesh! That place is so small you don't need to install a heater - you, your cat, and an incandescent light bulb would heat the place right up!" John had lived on and built boats in Maine for decades so I took most of what he said very seriously. But I also knew I'm a wimp compared to him, so for the last year and a half I've been paying attention to different heating options for small spaces. Heating seems to be a dilemma for many tiny house dwellers. Some folks love wood heat so they install tiny wood stoves and stoke their fires and call it good. A friend of mine who is an arborist says wood is the way he'd heat a tiny house since he has a limitless supply of it. But crawling out of a warm bed to build a fire doesn't even sound fun to me when I'm camping! Besides, I'm a little pyrophobic. Even if I did like building fires I'd need to get good at it so that I could control temperatures so it was comfortable. And since my schedule often involves being gone for 12 hours at a stretch it I wouldn't be around to stoke a fire.
Last week my new heater arrived and, as promised by the website, installation took just a few minutes. The new heater is a wall mounted convection heater with a nice slim profile and some sort of special stack effect technology. (I understand the stack effect - I think! - but I don't see how it can be very effective in a heater that is only two feet tall, so I put it on the near the loft so that the height differential can give it a boost.) The heater is made by a company called Envi and after reading reviews for the three heaters on the market that are similar, I went with this one because there's a temperature control and the design has curved edges which I figured would help me be less likely to snag myself on it. The others also had some reviews that talked about worrisome defects and poor customer service, but it doesn't help that all three of them have very similar names. So I sprung for the one that cost $30 more.

I discovered a minor cat-related disaster last night, which means a squeezed in vet visit in the morning.
We got home late after a fun and interesting evening meeting and dinner. We were greeted at the door by a little white cat with a droopy tail. It's pretty clear that there's something wrong - her tail is hanging like string and she's using her hind quarters to wag it around so she can get to a comfortable sitting position. She's had this problem once before with the last couple of inches of her tail, so I pulled out the drugs from that episode and fed her half a dose. I'm really hoping she gets better again. And that we figure out why this is happening.

5 Ways To Be A Great Learner
Learning is discovery.
A learner not only discovers a lot of different things in life, but also discovers more about himself.
What we learn helps us become better in what we do and our understanding about life, along with our experience, also widen.
To continue to improve, and be a great learner, consider these easy and proven ways:
Take notes
Whenever you are reading or watching something informative, take notes. This is an effective way to remember things and to gather information. Taking notes leads to an easy recall, and even when you cannot remember a lot of information right way, you can always go back to what you have jotted down later on.
Ask questions
"Why" got you a lot of answers when you were a kid, and it will still get you a lot of answers now. If there is something you don't understand, find the answer and if you are unsure, ask the why, and you would know the how.
Read more
The more you read, the more you will learn, and there is nothing better than to make the most out of your time reading. You don't have to read books all the time; you can read newspapers, magazines and anything educational. Remember, the more you read, the better for learning and growth.
Appreciate each lesson
Life provides new learning opportunities each day, and each lesson should be appreciated. The more you appreciate each learning process, the more you would learn. For example, learning a new word or two is something to be grateful for and happy about, right?
Have a hobby
Got something you are passionate about? Make a hobby out of it. Learning is not just something about your surroundings and knowledge is not just written in books. Sometimes, learning comes from within and discovering who you are and who you can be is just as important.
That is the beauty of learning, isn't it? Every day we gain knowledge, and we grow in experience.
May we never get tired of learning and enriching our lives.
Comments welcome.

Candidates for office introduce themselves to Tilton voters
by Donna Rhodes
write the author
February 27, 2019
TILTON Voters in Tilton were invited to Candidates Night at the Tilton Town Hall last week, where those running for offices this year had a chance to introduce themselves and answer questions from the moderator and audience.
With only three contested races, two for Board of Selectmen and one opening on the Sewer Commission, Town Administrator Jeanie Forrester, filling in for Town Moderator Chuck Mitchell, began the evening with candidates for selectman.
Opting to run for a one-year term that will fulfill a position vacated earlier last year, Katherine Dawson said the short term would be a good opportunity for her to wind down her lengthy tenure with the board and allow others an opportunity to join next year.
Asked by Forrester to explain her greatest strength and how she would use it if elected, Dawson said, "Undoubtedly my 20 years of experience as selectman."
She went on to say she would continue to use her diverse knowledge and familiarity with municipal government to do her best for Tilton.
Her final question was what she believed to be the greatest need or problem facing the town and how would she resolve it. Dawson said town, county and school taxes were a problem.
"We have to look at the needs and not the wants. When taxes go up it hurts everybody," she replied.
Her challenger this year is Jason Wright. Wright introduced himself as a native of New Hampshire who moved to Tilton in 1996. The opportunity to run for a one-year term he felt was not only a good way to get acclimated to the Board of Selectmen but the best choice for his family at this time. Wright's background is in engineering and he currently runs the New Hampshire State Surplus. His previous work experiences included real estate and jobs in both the corporate and industrial fields. Wright said he would bring his experience in managing budgets to the board, adding that he would use his creative thinking skills to find more creative ways to handle how money is spent. When asked his greatest strength, he stated that he does his homework, checks his facts then makes solid decisions that he can both defend and support. As to the greatest need or problem in the town, Wright said the town needs to develop a plan, to look at the town and emergency services and decide what it should look like in 20 years.
"I don't think we can do it in a year but it's something the selectmen and every committee in town needs to look at," he said.
For the three-year term, candidates include incumbent Joe Jesseman and challengers Eric Pyra and Dick Olson.
Raised in Tilton, Jesseman said his strength is his two-term experience on the board and many other town committees, and his willingness to collaborate. He said he approaches everything with an open mind and has even voted against his own self-interests at times because "it was the right thing to do." The biggest problem he sees is the drug issues that affect families, children and the community and said he would continue to support programs that care for children and young adults. Jesseman also said that he is involved in many ways with the community outside of his role in town government in his desire to make Tilton a better place.
"I want to continue to make this a better place. I've seen other thriving communities and I want Tilton to join in on this," he said.
Pyra said he has been a resident of Tilton since 2001 where he and his wife chose to raise their two children. In 2012 he joined the Planning Board, has been a past member of the Budget Committee and Zoning Board, and is currently a fire commissioner and member of the Tilton Police Department Building Committee.
"There's a lot of potential here and I like to be part of it," he said.
He feels representing residents of the town is an important role for selectmen while economics is the biggest problem the town faces. If elected, he said he would like to encourage more business along Main Street and work to attract commercial industry to Business Park Drive.
At the age of 26, Olson, who received an honorable discharge from the Army due to an injury, is the youngest candidate for selectman. He sees his age as a benefit however, bringing new ideas and new perspectives to the board. When asked what he believes to be the most important role of a selectmen Olson said he felt it to be the negotiation of contracts, weighing decisions carefully and having the ear of the people.
"I want to leave the town better for children," he replied.
His greatest strength is in contract negotiation, something that benefitted him with a shop he had in Derry. As to what the greatest needs or problems of the town, Olson stated that the town needs to take a second look at itself and someone his age might bring things to light that others might not have noticed over the years. He said he would also like to see the community do more for veterans.
He and Wright are also running for Sewer Commission, where Wright is the incumbent. Wright said that he has a lot of experience and knowledge of the sewer district and that means a lot. Running for his fifth term, he has been part of expansion and improvements to the system but it's not done yet.
"I'd like to see the project through to continue up West Main Street where buildings back up to the river," he said.
As for experience, Olson on the other hand said he has already been accompanying Commissioner Peter Fogg to some of the town's pump stations so he can learn more about it. At times he has even helped with some repairs.
"I'm very familiar with different types of pumps and I'm able to fix them," he said.
Elections for these and other positions in Tilton will take place on Tuesday, March 12, at Winnisquam Regional High School.

Real estate is not a topic I usually address, but I have been thinking quite a bit about Seattle real estate lately.
If you're buying a home, you want to make sure you do your due diligence. Last thing you want to do is make an offer on the home that you'll later regret.
To minimize regret, I've created a home buying checklist, targeted for folks who are based in Seattle.
Hope you find it helpful, and good luck with house hunting!
Seattle Home Buying Checklist
- Sex offender search. It's always good to know how far convicted sex offenders are from your prospective home.
- Seattle crime maps. See what kind of crimes are being reported, along with the frequency. Create an account to see police report details.
- Seattle permit search. Site plans and geotechnical reports offer detailed specs and documentation on what you're getting into.
- Seattle GIS reports. There's no shortage of environmental critical areas in Seattle including abandoned landfills, slide potential, and cute (but intruding) wildlife.
- Vehicle collision reports. Informative website regarding car collision frequency by neighborhood.
- Seller Disclosures. Ask your agent for seller's disclosures. It might provide clues on gotchas to look for.

Have you ever enjoyed a really good book? Perhaps it "grabbed hold of you" so that you were unable to put it down until you finished it. The book had a great plot, and kept you on the edge of your seat as the hero narrowly escaped many dangers.
Now suppose that, about a year after you finish reading this great book, you see an ad that shows that book has been made into a movie with a rating acceptable to Christians. So you go to see this movie, and as you watch it, you find that, unlike most book-to-movie translations, this movie is faithful to the book down to the finest detail!
In fact, the scary parts are just as scary as they were in the book. But while other movie-goers who have not read the book are grasping the armrests on their chairs, you aren't as afraid, because you've read the book, and you know exactly how the hero makes it out of this situation. In fact, as the movie progresses, others start to look at their watches to find out how much time is left in the movie... but you don't have to, because you've read the book, and you know where in relation to the ending you currently are, and thus how much time is left.
Well, the end of this system of things is just like a movie... and some of the parts are very scary. But while we may be "on the edge of our chairs" at times by what we see on the screen, we are not scared as the rest are; because we have read the book, and this movie is faithful to the book down to the finest detail.
We know where we are in the end of this system of things by what we see around us because we've read the book. We know what is going to happen next, because we've read the book. We are not in fear as the rest are, because we've read the book
Jehovah doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called
He who angers you, controls you!
He who is good at making excuses is seldom good for anything else
He who kneels before Jehovah can stand before any man!
How many of you have flown on an airplane? You know when the flight attendant comes out and goes thought the little spiel about, "Here's how to handle an emergency," and they always mention that the mask drops down and that, if you have a small child with you, they say to first put the mask on yourself and then on the child; for obvious reasons. If we were to pass out in the process of trying to help the child, both would lose. So first, we put ourselves in a position to be strong enough to help the individual, and then we help the child. In the same way, we can't love others if we don't respect ourselves. We need to love ourselves.
Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up: It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning, the lion wakes up: It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle: When the sun comes up, you'd better be running.
When your feet hit the floor running in the morning what motivates you? Fear or a sense of mission?

Award's Night Tip #1 Funding Your Award's Celebration & Pie in the Face
Many leagues pay for their award's night with proceeds from their concession stands. A new idea to help support your Upward sports program is to put out 8 – 10 jars with coaches, referees, pastors, Upward director (picture/name) on a table at the start of the season (game 1) beside of the concession stand. Whoever has the most money in their jar will get a whip cream pie in the face at the Celebration. Trust me when I say that everyone is going to have a blast with putting extra money in the jars. Everyone will have fun with it while making creating extra funding for your Upward ministry. It is a WIN-WIN for everyone.
Award's Night Tip #2 for Door Prizes…This is AWESOME!!!
A few years ago I was at an Upward Celebration that gave away three door prizes. The three prizes were: $25 gift card, $15 gift card, and a Bible.
*The first winner could choose any prize they wanted. The winner chose the $25 gift card.
*The second winner could choose the remaining two gifts (The $15 gift card or the Bible). The person chose the $15 gift card and was thrilled.
*The final winner was a young man who was a 5th grader. He was happy he won but you could see how disappointed he was to win a Bible.
*Finally, The Upward Director told the young man to open up the Bible because inside was a $100 gift card. The gasp of the audience and the looks of the first two winners who chose the $25 and $15 gift cards were priceless. Finally, the Upward Director closed by saying "everyone should open up their Bible and read it tonight because you never know what you're going to find inside."
Award's Night Tip #3 – Make the Year-End Awards "Special" – Build Some Excitement
Give out the awards directly following your door prize drawing. Build some excitement as you give away the prizes by holding up each prize as you draw it, asking your players, "Who wants to win this?!" Immediately following the last door prize, hold up a player award (ball, backpack, etc)., again asking, "Who wants to win this?!" Make the "prize" seem SPECIAL and make a big deal about it. Finally, decide to just give every player/cheerleader a prize for making an effort this season. Have the coaches pass them out, (from boxes under their seats), and I promise, every player in the audience will be thrilled.
Award's Night Tip #4 – Keep it 75 – 90 Minutes
Keep the Award's Celebration short! I have been to Upward Sports™ events that last for three hours. Everyone will have a better time and have more fun if you don't lose their attention span. It really is possible to accomplish everything that needs to be accomplished in 75 – 90 minutes.
TYPICAL 90 Minute Upward Celebration
*Slide Show (while guests are arriving)
*Welcome & Prayer
*Upward Entertainer
*Recognize the Volunteers
*Upward Pie in the Face
*Door Prizes & Gifts for Players / Introduce Teams
*Closing Prayer
Award's Night Tip #5 – The Award's Night "WOW" Factor
The Award's Night needs the "WOW Factor" that made everyone feel like this is a special event. I firmly believe you're missing out on a great opportunity to make it a big deal. After all, this is "Award's" Night, right? I absolutely know we can partner together to provide the solution to make your next Upward Sports™ Award Night Celebration a huge success.
Award's Night Tip #6 – CLEAR Message of Salvation
The Upward Sports™ Award Night Celebration can be an incredibly stressful time for the director. It's easy to get caught up in all the little details and lose sight of what matters. Having an experience professional Christian Entertainer / Inspirational Speaker that can deliver a CLEAR Message of Salvation is a huge asset that allows the director to focus on the families. One of the Best in Christian Entertainment Ministry, Illusionist Joseph Young has been an approved Upward Sports™ Award Night Entertainer since 2005 with a 5 Star Upward Speaker Rating.

Who Is Kiera Sheridan On 'The Fall'? Spector's Nurse Resembles His Victims
The end of the second series of the British crime drama The Fall could have easily served as a series finale. But if you enjoy watching an unamused Gillian Anderson tear into misogynistic men as much as I do, you're very much in luck. Anderson's no-nonsense detective character Stella Gibson is back in The Fall Season 3, out on Netflix Oct. 29. And though Paul Spector's survival was in question in that finale, Jamie Dornan is still on board as co-lead and continues to play the serial killer Stella has been tracking since the show began. The Fall Season 3 is adding some new characters to the mix. Aisling Bea plays Nurse Kiera Sheridan on The Fall , another woman who is pulled into the dangerous orbit of Spector.
The reason why I thought that Season 2 might have been the end for The Fall is because it looked very much like it could have been the end of Paul Spector. When he led the police out into the woods to find his victim Rose Stagg — barely alive — he and Detective Tom Anderson were shot by Jimmy Tyler, one of Spector's former therapy patients. Stella held him while he bled out on the ground; if he were to die there, he'd be spared a trial, spared facing his victims and their families — it didn't seem fair to Stella. The season wrapped there, but a renewal and an announcement that Dornan would be reprising his role confirmed that Spector wouldn't die in those woods. He's taken to a hospital instead, where he meets Kiera Sheridan.
Kiera is an Intensive Care Nurse at Belfast General Hospital. (The Fall is a British production, but is shot and set in Ireland.) She and Dr. O'Donnell (Richard Coyle) are among the hospital staff who treat Spector directly. The dark-haired woman shares some physical traits with the women who Spector targets, and they're brought together by a literal life-or-death situation. Women who should be repulsed by Spector's cold misogyny and violent streak have found themselves drawn to him instead. Look at Katie Benedetto, the teenage babysitter who nurses an obsessive crush on her charges' dad. Could Nurse Sheridan be at risk of falling under Spector's influence? And if she is, would she go so far as to risk her job and her own freedom to help him?
The role of Kiera Sheridan is a dramatic departure for actress and stand-up comedian Aisling Bea. Bea is an award-winning comic and appears regularly on UK comedy panel shows like A League Of Their Own and Never Mind The Buzzcocks. She has a lengthy acting resume as well, but mostly in sitcoms. The Fall has its witty moments (mostly at a man's expense), but the show is overwhelmingly serious for the most part. And if Bea's character becomes attached to Paul Spector, the nurse could be playing with fire.
According to IMDB, Nurse Sheridan will appear in four episodes this year. The entire third season of The Fall will drop on Netflix at the same time, so your binge can begin.
