Tip 2
Hannah Law
Don't label things for moving if you know you aren't going to use them.
Your team will give you a quote for everything you plan on moving, so if you add something you'll never use (like a piano you don't even know how to play), that gets added to the cost of your move. Don't kill yourself with unnecessary expenses, take only what you need to survive.

Tainan, Taiwan, March 28, 2014 - Pervasive Displays Inc. (PDI), designer and manufacturer of electronic paper modules for commercial and industrial display applications has collaborated with Microchip Technology Inc., a leading provider of microcontroller, mixed-signal, analog and Flash-IP solutions, to implement a new e-Paper development kit, including the new "EPD PICtail™ Plus Daughter Board" that connects to Microchip's Explorer 16 development platform. This development tool set features a graphics and text, with both global and partial screen updates from Microchip's Graphics Library.
Microchip and PDI have created the "EPD PICtail Plus Daughter Board" to connect with Microchip's Explorer 16 Development Board, in order to help kick-start EPD development with Microchip's Graphics Library and PIC® Microcontrollers, including the PIC24, dsPIC33 and PIC32 families. The two boards are combined using Microchip's standard PICtail Plus connector, which allows designers to easily evaluate EPD's e-Paper solution that employs Microchip's graphics library for its 16-bit and 32-bit PIC® microcontrollers. The sample Microchip MPLAB® X IDE project provides an open source driving waveform, including global update and partial update capability with command interface to update content on the EPD panel without a graphic display controller or timing control board. The provided demonstration programs include menu button, draw square and circle, bar chart, HVAC control panel and medical electrocardiogram (ECG), which supports updating button, slider, static text, picture and several other objects locally.
EPD PICtail Plus Daughter Board Features:
"Microchip collaborated with Pervasive Displays in creating this EPD PICtail™ Plus Board, to help our joint customers extend the battery life of their E-paper display applications using our eXtreme Low Power PIC® MCUs," said Joe Thomsen, director of Microchip's MCU16 Division. "E-paper applications are a natural extension of our low-power display products, including the free Microchip Graphics Library, which helps designers quickly develop images for their E-paper displays. With the introduction of the EPD PICtail™ Plus Board, our customers can pair this with their Explorer 16 Development Boards to create new E-paper designs."
"Pervasive Displays congratulates Microchip on the launch of its PIC® MCU aimed at new applications requiring partial updates with e-paper. We have a strong relationship with Microchip, who, like Pervasive Displays, are continuously evolving and innovating. The two companies combined are creating new markets for electronic paper," said Scott Soong, CEO of Pervasive Displays Inc.
For more product information and to purchase this kit, visit EPD PICtail Plus Daughter Board on PDI website.About Pervasive Displays Inc.
Pervasive Displays provides ultra-low-power, active-matrix E-Paper displays and reference designs for applications requiring high resolution, high contrast, wide viewing angle, sunlight readability and especially low energy consumption. There is an increasing need to provide battery and power harvesting driven "pervasive interfaces" to the connected world. Pervasive Displays is focused on industrial and commercial applications where better decision making and more efficient processes creates tangible saving/profit by enabling the delivery of right information to the right place at the right time.

Brain Surgery on a Hamster...
OK, you may have heard me in the past talk about how complicated the world has gotten, even when it comes to our pets. If you haven't, check out this video:httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDI1ALEHB_c&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL
Well, last night at a Super Bowl party I heard a story that tops even that. A friend's family hamster… ok, to be fair, it is a pygmy hamster… has had brain surgery. TWICE. Total cost of two brain surgeries for a pygmy hamster: $120. Total cost for a brand new (and possibly identical) pygmy hamster: $30.
A couple points:
I'm not saying the family shouldn't have had brain surgery performed on the hamster (…um, twice). I'm saying that the world has gotten infinitely more complicated than it used to be, and with that come additional stresses. That said, the cost of the two brain surgeries added up to four times the cost of a new hamster. If the hamster were a car, he'd be declared "totaled" and be towed to a hamster junk yard. And finally – $120 for two brain surgeries??? Forget Obamacare. How do we institute Hamstercare?.

Canada plays quite a part in this blog; Canada is one of the reasons for this blog's very existence! So it is with great delight that I realised today that it is five months until my next visit. My first trip was entirely for the purpose of library research and presenting a paper at the Ninth International Conference of the Book, with the exception of a full day at Niagara Falls, but I knew that I wanted to return to see more of Toronto, and of the whole country.
It took three years, but I was able to organise a longer visit (of one month's duration) last September, entirely for a change of scenery, mostly for research, partly as a holiday, taking advantage of free time available between leaving London and starting my new job in Glasgow Libraries. It was an excellent opportunity to follow up on some research I'd begun in 2011, and to visit some intriguing Special Collections such as those at the Merril Collection of Science Fiction, Speculation and Fantasy. I have so many stories to tell from that trip, so many research leads to develop, that I really should get to discussing them on t'blog at some point; it simply hasn't been a priority.
This upcoming visit will be more holiday than research; at least that's the plan. I'll be spending a few days on Prince Edward Island, marinading myself in all things L. M. Montgomery, whose books I am rereading, and diaries I am reading for the first time, as preparation. I had set my heart on visiting the island on my previous visit, but unfortunately it wasn't an option, so my anticipation has only increased to decidedly giddy proportions. Thereafter I'll return to Toronto, to stay with people who have become very good friends since we met last year. I'm looking forward to seeing their Toronto. I will need to spend some more time at the Merril, as since last visiting it, I have become responsible for my own library's collection of science-fiction and fantasy novels. It was always my intention on this visit to see not only a different Toronto, but also more of Canada, which goal will be achieved by my PEI visit, of course, but also a trip to one of Canada's wine regions, about which I am rather excited.
I promised myself, upon moving home and starting my new job, that I would take more holidays from now on, in addition to attending and presenting at conferences, and possibly instead of all things conference some years. This year, I'm attending, for the first time, the International Congress of Celtic Studies. Next year, I'm planning to do a spot of conference presenting, and in holiday terms, to take a longer trip to Australia to visit a few friends who have had the audacity to emigrate. Bon voyage, me!

Florence is one of the most beautiful historical cities in the World! Besides the Uffizzi Gallery (tne number#1 in Renaissance art); the sun setting over the Arno, seen from the Piazzalle Michelangelo; the delicious Bisteca Fiorentina; the wonderful galleries of small restaurants and different kinds of food on the first floor (balcony) of the Central Market (open until 01:00 am!), with incredible and affordable options - we had the privilege of staying at the CERRETANI Firenze Hotel (Mgallery by Sofitel)! THe hotel has an incredible location, just 3 minutes walking to Il Duomo and the Batistero! It is located just in front of the most glamurous street in town: The Tuornaboni Street! The rooms are beautiful; comfortable and cozy. Breakfast (included) is just delicious and served as a buffet (all you can eat) in a wonderful breakfast area with modern décor including TV screens showing contineous videos of relaxing nature views. The hotel staff is wonderful! Always ready and happy to help, and always with a smile. One thing though you have to be prepared for, if you are coming to Florence downtown by car... Parking (the hotel indicates a garage service, and your car will be ready just after 30 minutes of a request) is expensive. But, in general, the CERRETANI was a major help for our wonderful stay in Florence!
The city of Florence is very beautiful I will definitely come back with my friends one day. I found a nice hotel in there Hotel Minerva near the church but I bet that is very expensive!! I am an average traveller on a budget I like hotel not cheap but not expensive. One of our friends met us there and brought us to an Aperifif? Restaurant. It was just an overnight stay, we were just passing through to go to Pisa, Italy. Florence is beautiful but need more time to enjoy the place, had no chance to visit the museum, but my overall trip was fantastic definitely I will come back one day.
Ah, Florence! What don't I love about you? As a historian of the Renaissance, I find treasures on every corner. This time, I stayed right near the Medici Chapels at San Lorenzo at the simple but fabulous Hotel Aldobrandini. Close to the train station and only a few blocks from the Duomo, this one-star hotel is close to good restaurants and really has all you need.
We had two nights and then drove to Cinque Terre before returning for another 3 nights. We loved the variety of Florence. There was so much to do. Try hiring cycles and heading to Signa. It's about 10km away along a great bike track alongside the river. Once there you can relax around an outside pool. You do have to pay but we had a lovely day there. Don't forget your bathing cap though or you'll have to buy one. Obica is a lovely place to dine and reasonably priced. SO much to say but a lot can be found in guide books or any helpful hotel receptionist will offer suggestions. We stayed at Hotel del Corso with lovely Chiara and then for our return stay we were at the Pendini with a good view of the carousel in the piazza below and also the Duomo a few streets away.
Good for two or three days. Some churches and some other things to visit Be careful that some places are very expensive to visit. There was one church for example, where I paid 6 euros, entered, and there was just one small room to visit... Was quite disapointed. First sunday of the month, some places are free to access such as the Boboli (bubble) garden. If you go there on the first sunday, you can save quite a few euros or entrance fee. On the street of Hotel Rex (about 300 meters from the hotel on that street, there is a very cheap place to buy magnets for 1 euros, and other souvenirs for 1,2, or 3 euros. The cheapest place that I have found.
Shopping was great. Check out Alberto Cozzi for handmade paper products and Peruzzi is definitely the place to go for leather goods. Enjoyed the Hop On/Off Bus tour. It's the best if you want to get up close to a sight, jump off for awhile, and then hop on the next bus. Saves a lot in cab expenses. Go to the Piazzale Michelangelo for the best view overlooking all of Florence. The hotel I stayed at, the Hotel Berchielli, was reasonable in price, has wonderful staff, and a great location (1 block from the Ponte Vecchio). There are lots of stalls everywhere in the city selling everything from tourist souvenirs to leather goods. However, I would not buy leather goods at any of these places, as I was told by multiple sources, that they came from China and were not made in Italy. Great vacation, lots to see, and I enjoyed every minute of it.

We stayed at 4 places during our trip in Italy and Maison Bianca was absolutely the best! The room looks very good even better than hotel rooms in my opinion, yes the location is a not the best but it definately worth it. Thank you so much Giorgio we had a great time!

Everything! The room was exquisite, the bathroom luxury and the views incredible. The bed was comfortable and the addition of a smart tv was a nice touch. View of the river was beautiful and the large rainfall shower and deluxe spa bath were perfect to unwind after a day exploring Florence. Breakfast was served at a cafe a few doors down, with one of the best buffets we had in Italy.

A very modern apartment close to everything in Florence. Comfy beds, spotlessly clean, and lovely owner. Grocery store very close and excellent place to grab a cafe close by. Air-conditioning works very well. Out of all of the places we stayed in Italy, this was the best! Glad we spent the majority of our stay in this apartment. Perfect for families.
8.1 Very Good 3,720 reviews
The hotel was close to the train station so ideal if you were traveling around Italy by train. 10 minute walk to see Duomo. Breakfast a bit meh but fine. Rooms were a great size with air con. Very nice bathrooms too, plenty of towels. Exactly what we needed. Not too fancy (we were traveling with our 3 children) but functional & well priced.
Less than 5 mins walk from main station but a bit difficult to find the place as it has no sign for New Apartment. Warm welcoming and helpful assistance to organise your Florence visit. Ample space and with seperate living room and a kitchen with all necessary tools. The best coffee we have in hotel/accomodation of Italy.

What a great hotel in the heart of Florence. We had great accommodations, found the service to be exceptional and the complimentary breakfast was the best my family has ever experienced in any hotel in Italy. The quality of food was great. One perk is that they have an elevator for the physically challenged.

This hotel is the best from our recent trip to Italy. Their rooms are spacious compared to other hotels in the cities of Italy (x2). Breakfast was great - still remember their warm, moist delicious croissants. Lorenzo was accommodating and helpful and rooms are super duper clean. Will definitely be back

A heel spur is a painful condition that is caused by the accumulation of excessive calcium under the heel of the foot. The heel bone is made up of a large structure called the calcaneus, which is connected to the bottom of the foot by durable connective tissue called fascia. If the layers of connective tissue become damaged or begin to degenerate due to wear and tear, plantar fasciitis may develop. This causes calcification, which refers to the abnormal buildup of calcium on the heel bone. As the calcium continues to accumulate, a calcified protrusion called a spur may become visible on an X-ray.
Heel spurs develop as an abnormal growth in the heel bone due to calcium deposits that form when the plantar fascia pulls away from the heel. This stretching of the plantar fascia is usually the result of over-pronation (flat feet), but people with unusually high arches (pes cavus) can also develop heel spurs. Women have a significantly higher incidence of heel spurs due to the types of footwear often worn on a regular basis.
Pain and discomfort associated with heel spurs does not occur from the spur itself. The bone growth itself has no feeling. However, as you move, this growth digs into sensitive nerves and tissue along the heel of the foot, resulting in severe pain. Pain can also be generated when pushing off with the toes while walking. Swelling along the heel is also common.
A thorough medical history and physical exam by a physician is always necessary for the proper diagnosis of heel spurs and other foot conditions. X rays of the heel area are helpful, as excess bone production will be visible.
Non Surgical Treatment
A conventional treatment for a heel spur is a steroid injection. This treatment, however, isn?t always effective because of the many structures in the heel, making it a difficult place for an injection. If this treatment goes wrong, it can make the original symptoms even worse. Another interesting means of treatment is Cryoultrasound, an innovative electromedical device that utilizes the combination of two therapeutic techniques: cryotherapy and ultrasound therapy. Treatments with Cryoultrasound accelerate the healing process by interrupting the cycle and pain and spasms. This form of therapy increases blood circulation and cell metabolism; it stimulates toxin elimination and is supposed to speed up recovery.
Surgical Treatment
Surgery to correct for heel spur syndrome is a common procedure which releases plantar fascia partially from its attachment to the calcaneous (heel bone). This part of the surgery is called a plantar fasciotomy due to the fact the fascia is cut. This is most often done through an open procedure as any heel spur or bursa can be removed at the same time. If the spur is not removed during the surgery, it will probably be just as successful, as the large spur is not the true problem. Some physicians use an endoscopic approach (EPF) where a small camera aids the physician during surgery with typically smaller incisions on each side of your foot.

New Zealand - Aotearoa - Country of Maoris
January 1, 1970
by Maren
New Zealand is such a beautiful country with so many things to do and to see. I spend five months in Auckland working for a Dentist agency, it is worth to spend a couple of days in Auckland and here is why:
I arrived in the night at the airport in Auckland and got with the bus to the hostel. The Sky bus goes every half an hour from the airport to the city. There are Sky bus stations in the city to get to the airport as well. Bus will be 24 $. The most Sky bus stations are in Queen Street.
Queen Street – that's where everything is
There are heaps of food shops like Sushi or Asian food, Mc Donald's, Burger King, Pizza, Pasta shops. I recommend Domino's, pizza for minimum five $ and it is really good. There isn't just one shop of everything in Queen Street, there are like five Domino shops,…
The theatre and the cinema are next to each other and the cinema is huge, but absolutely worth a visit
The main library. In every library you get free Wi-Fi and if you need to print something you can do it for 0,40 $
The Art gallery is close to the library, it is for free and worth a visit. If you wanna learn something about Maori art, this is the place to be
The main train station and the ferry station
All the banks and all the phone stores
And all the night life is happening in Queen Street. Even the people from south Auckland come all the way to Queen Street. You will find Pubs like these Country Pubs, or Bars. Good fun if you like to dance.
Casino is in the building of the Sky tower, I never went, but friends told me it's worth to have a look. There is also a restaurant which is expensive but if you don't mind spending your money you will get really good food.
The Sky tower got a restaurant on top, the restaurant turns around so you can get a look around Auckland.
For the first time I stayed in the YHA national hostel, 5 Turner Street, next to Queen Street. I do recommend it, friendly people, looked after it very well. If you got nothing for breakfast you can buy stuff at the reception. Free Wi-Fi available. It is actually a perfect hostel for someone who never done a trip like this before. You can book adventure trips, buses or other YHA hostels in New Zealand.
There is also Nomads fat camel hostel in 38 Fort Street, also next to Queen Street and close to the harbour, Train and bus stations. A little bit dirty, funny hostel though. A bar is connected to the hostel. You get free food every evening, it isn't much but for a little upgrade you get a full meal. The cheapest room is for 24 $ but it is a six bed dorm room without a window. You do have to pay for Wi-Fi
Sim card, Bank account
I went together with new friends to the city to get a sim card and to open a bank account.
For my bank account, I chose ANZ, I didn't pay monthly costs, transfer money from overseas, online banking and a debit card that you could do online shopping with (for paying the bus or stuff like that). If you go into the bank and you need to do something at the desk it will cost you, every time, three $
For my phone I chose 2degrees, I paid 20 $ a month for 1 GB of internet, unlimited SMS and calls.
For an alternative you can choose sparks or Vodafone. Sparks got that problem that not every phone can receive that signal. Before you actually buy a sim card visit a store and try it on your phone. Sparks got everywhere in New Zealand spots fro free Wi-Fi, at bus stations, in towns, on camping places,… very useful.
Trains, Buses, Ferry's
Auckland got a population of 1,2 Million people, you need good transfer possibilities.
For short distances ( 10 minutes drive) I recommend the bus. Bus drivers don't take it important with the timetable, if you wait for a bus more than 10 minutes it's totally normal. Or if the bus even doesn't turn up it's totally normal.
For bigger distances ( more than 10 minutes) I recommend the train. For the train, Auckland is seperatet in three zones. From the main train station in zone one is it the cheapest, to zone two it get more expensive and to zone three of course more expensive as zone two. For a longer period in Auckland it is worth it to buy a monthly card, otherwise just buy a daily ticket. the train also will be stick to his timetable.
Ferry's are down at the harbour of course. To get to one of the islands it is about 34 $ two ways. Every ferry got it's own timetable, just check it out on the website:
Timetables of the Ferry, Bus and Train
Waihiki Island
I've done a trip with Ego Zip to Waihiki island. Of course you have to take the ferry which will take 30 minutes. Waihiki Island got 19 beautiful beaches and a lot of hiking walks. I never stayed in the hostel but I know it's always busy, so make sure you have a booking.
The trip with Ego Zip was beautiful. Flying is it what they do. Well, kind of. They get you on a rope and you swing over the forest, over the wine field to the next side. It's really fun. Arrived down at the bottom you have to walk up again, but it sounds worse than it is. It is a really nice walk through the forest and they explain what they were doing there, how the nature change.
Beaches in Auckland
At the Train station in Queen Street is a bus station, from there you take a bus to the beach, it's only a ten minutes drive and you probably pay two $. Mission beach is the main beach, a lot of events are happening there like a football competition or a volleyball competition. It got some food shops around as well. Around that corner are some other beaches, smaller beaches like Okahu bay. There are no events, but there is a fire place for a barbecue
Mt. Eden
One evening I went together with some friends to Mt. Eden (Volcano). From the YHA hostel is it only a 45 minutes walk away. Popular place, but it got a really nice few over Auckland. During the day you can get there by bus as well.
Other mountains in Auckland
- Mt. Wellington
- Mt. Albert
Parks in Auckland
Auckland got a lot of parks in the city, it's like going to another world, these parks are so beautiful and looked after it very well and after every corner there is another park. Albert park got a vegetable garden in it, the Students from the University are looking after it. Victoria Park got a big play ground for kids. The parks in south Auckland got used for school sport.
I hope you have a lot of fun in Auckland it is an amazing city!

Santa Monica Lookout
|Santa Monica Pier Movie Series Announces Lineup
By Lookout Staff
September 21, 2016 -- From a food documentary to an episode of "Star Wars," the Santa Monica Pier is offering an eclectic lineup of films during its Front Porch Cinema series, pier officials announced Tuesday.
The free movie series will screen a film every Friday night from September 30 to October 28 on a giant inflatable screen with the highest quality HD-projection and line-array sound, Santa Monica Pier Corporation officials said.
"The Pier will transform into a cozy front porch environment, providing the perfect setting for a night of movies, food and activities with a variety of films for all ages," Pier officials said. "Guests can unwind on old-timey lawn chairs and watch oceanfront films."
The series kicks September 30 off with the family-friendly animated feature, "Zootopia." The screening will feature free ice cream for the first 100 people as well as arts and crafts and face painting for the kids, officials said.
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens," episode seven of the epic Star Wars series, screens on October 14, followed on October 21 by a screening of the 30th anniversary edition of "Labyrinth," starring David Bowie as a goblin king.
"Labyrinth" will be preceded by a Bowie tribute by DJ Set and a sneak preview of CBS' new show "The Great Indoors" starring John McHale.
The series concludes October 28 with a screening of "Tight Loose," an extreme ski and snowboard documentary presented by Teton Gravity Research.
Movies begin at 7:30 p.m., and attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs, since only a limited number will be available for rent.
The Cinema Lounge, which opens at 6 p.m., offers curated cocktails and beer from Boulevard Brewing Company, as well as seating for guests to enjoy before and during the film (must be 21 and over to enter).

Magic Choral Trick #212 Choirs and Social Consciousness
Posted by janetkidd
Not really a trick – more of a side effect.
There are two things that choirs love to do. Sing and eat. And both of these are a celebration of community.
So it's really no surprise that some sort of community outreach should follow.
Tonight my women's Barbershop chorus had our Christmas dinner party, and though not much was said about it, over $700 was raised, and a mountain of hats and mittens was collected for the local soup kitchen.
Every Harmony Inc. Barbershop chorus in North America raises funds for autism.
Last year Big Choir raised more than $1000 spontaneously in one evening for one of the show's participants who was in need.
The Med School choir I direct donated half of their recent concert's proceeds to the fund raising campaign for our local hospital.
There seems to be some sort of connection between singing together and kindness, outreach and concern for each other.
In these times when our news media is bringing us daily doses of the horrific, there's comfort in knowing that groups of people all over the world are getting together every week to sing, and to experience joy – then doing what they can to give some of that joy and kindness to their communities.
About janetkiddI've been waving my arms in front of choirs now for more than 35 years - and these are descriptions of all the very best things I've learned. I direct a Women's Competitive Barbershop Chorus, a Men's Competitive Barbershop Chorus, a Med School choir, and for a few weeks each year - Big Choir (about 100 voices) - which performs at an annual fundraising concert. Hope at least some of these Choral Magic Tricks will be useful to you - and thanks for reading. Janet

The Oracle of Omaha on America
Warren Buffett released the 50th (!!!) annual Berkshire Hathaway shareholder letter over the weekend. Buffett is a living legend, someone whom students of business and finance will be studying for centuries. Additionally though not wholly unrelated, he is a fantastic storyteller. Here is an example from his latest letter (click on the picture to enlarge):
As Buffett alludes, the dominant posture is pessimism about America and its future. The media feeds us a never-ending diet of stats (education, internet, corruption) that signal our diminishing prowess. Perhaps, Buffett's greatest skill as an investor is to ignore the noise and see the big picture. It's great to occasionally be reminded of just how striking that picture is.

About Us
People ask what is it that sets our Chrystal Singing bowls apart from other companies?
When we create these bowls it is our intention to work with the utmost integrity of spiritual connection. Using high quality materials blessed in our Temples of Light. The Activated Priestesses I have chosen are Divine Light Code Alchemists and artists. Manifested by Amma Sophia Rose, Encoded with the Genetic Key Codes, Channeled by AhneYah Sophia & Sundari Ma Aleph. These sisters are United by Divine inspirations and are authentic carriers of the ShekinaSophia Light Codes of Creation.
Each bowl is exclusively infused with our Priestess essence and Monatomic minerals from the Andariáns known as Etheriums.
Each Etherium has a specific purpose:
- Pink activates the heart
- Black purifies body
- White Gold activates the pineal pituitary gland
- Tan activates life purpose
- Red awakens sensuality and creative channels
When guided to create these amazing beings the Chrystal Devas were very specific and said no corners could be cut. We remain intently specific in the artistic designs and minerals. The art is channeled in sacred ceremony with pure intention for their activation. We bless the minerals and crystals by singing and invoking the Shekina Dove Consciousness at The Temple and sent directly to manufacturer. Each bowl is blessed by the Activated Artists and Amma Sophia Rose to activate it fully in alignment with you. This is why they are custom made to order. Feel into the energy if you get a full body "YES" they are for you. This sacred inspiration was given in a dream when the Andarían star beings of the galactic council came and said it is time for the Crystals to sing awake the voices of the 7 Rays of the Sisterhood of Light. Within a few months these beloved creations were born. They have been tested by frequency meters and master Sound Alchemists, High Water Priestess Ida Resi of Bali who fully supports our mission. We have exclusive rights to this production and you will not find them anywhere else. Here are the minerals we use in our bowls in combination with the technology of crystals Andarás high frequency crystals or Alchemy metals such as 24krt Gold, Platinum and Titanium. I highly recommend you trying these amazing minerals by ingesting them in your system. I have worked with them for over 15 years and it has been one amazingly magical ride. Instant manifestations of a purpose driven life. When people ask my secret to looking so young....here's the answer the minerals and the singing of love!

Moreover, fighting styles like jui jitsu and kapoera will likely improve an individual's overall coordination and balance.
Somebody who trains in fighting styles is involved with many little steps of progression.

Sarah Lim: Museum Notes
Merced County Farmers Organized 100 years ago
Merced County farmers made 1917 a watershed year when they teamed up to work together to improve agriculture countywide.
With the assistance of a farm adviser from the Ag Extension, they significantly increased their crop production; with the forming of Merced County Farm Bureau, they were able to advance their political and economic agenda collectively, which they would not have been able to achieve through individual action.
Ag Extension Service was established by the Smith-Lever Act, a federal law, in 1914 to address rural agricultural issues with the trained experts from the land-grant universities. In addition to farming needs, the cooperative system also created other programs such as home economics and 4-H to educate rural residents about current developments.
In California, Ag Extension (later renamed as UC Cooperative Extension) was under the umbrella of the University of California and a farm adviser would be dispatched to a county once a farm bureau was organized. While the University of California would pay for the adviser's salary, it was the responsibility of the assigned county to fund his traveling and office expenses which amounted to about $2,000 annually. As early as 1915, various groups and individuals, from newspapers, grand juries, the Chamber of Commerce to business men and many of the farmers, called for the formation of Merced County Farm Bureau. It was not until 1917 that such efforts came to fruition.
Facts and figures convinced the doubtful farmers. In January 1917, Professor V. C. Bryant of UC Ag Extension came to Merced and gave a lantern-slide presentation about the benefits of forming a farm bureau. On January 16, 1917, an article that appeared in the Merced County Sun further extolled the benefits of a farm adviser. The article stated that farm advisers made 9,000 visits to ranches and farms in 1916. Glenn County tripled its grain sorghum acreage and the yield was worth $100,000, the seedless raisin yield in Yolo County increased from 50 to 100 percent because of the new trellis pruning methods, and San Diego County's vegetable and small-fruit growers solved their marketing problems.
Merced County seemed to be behind the game as the Valley counties of Stanislaus, San Joaquin, and Madera had already formed farm bureaus and enlisted the help of their own farm advisers. Organizing locally became the top priority for Merced County farmers. Towns and cities began a series of meetings for the organization of farm centers in preparation for the eventual formation of Merced County Farm Bureau. In January 1917, Merced Colony became the first farm center in Merced County. Many others such as Livingston, Winton, and Le Grand soon followed.
While these farm centers were organized as the nucleus of the eventual county farm bureau, membership development was the other challenge of the farm bureau movement as it required one-fifth of the farmers to sign up. By Feb. 14, a total of 294 membership signatures had been collected with 76 more needed. An annual membership fee was $1. The Chamber of Commerce was solidly behind the farm bureau movement and actively helped collect memberships. By early March, the chamber announced the membership requirement had been met which meant the formation of Merced County Farm Bureau.
On March 7, 1917, Chamber Chairman J. H. Ellis accompanied by a delegation of representatives from various farm centers presented a petition to the Merced County Board of Supervisors for a farm adviser and the board unanimously voted to set aside $2,000 for the securing of a county farm adviser.
As a result, Merced County Farm Bureau was organized, Farm adviser J. F. Grass, Jr. was appointed, and a County Farm adviser office was housed in the Chamber of Commerce office. Merced County Farm Bureau had its very first board meeting on May 17, 1917. The first slate of officers included W. S. Richey of El Nido, president; M. A. Marshall of Gustine, vice-president; Mrs. F. S. Stebbins, secretary; Directors: J. N. Allen of Livingston; G. Paul of Irwin; M. A. Marshall of Cottonwood; A. E. Beers of Merced; A. G. Lane of Amsterdam; W. S. Richey of El Nido; Fay Batten of Dos Palos; and John Wolfsen of Planada.
The first-year membership was 406. Merced County Farm Bureau held its first annual membership meeting on October 6, 1917, at the Courthouse Park where attendees enjoyed a parade, picnic, and concert. While the men attended special meetings, a free movie was shown at the Elite Theater for women and children in the afternoon.
Farm adviser Grass got to work right away and implemented scientific cow testing, organized a fire protective league, waged rabbit extermination campaigns, and made many visits to farms. This was the beginning of a successful partnership between UC Ag Extension and Merced County Farm Bureau. As these two organizations are turning 100 this year, come to see how Ag education has changed the way of farming in Merced County over the last 100 years at our "An Agricultural Centennial" exhibit opening on August 20.
In addition to the exhibit opening, there will be a celebration at the Courthouse Park with food, hands-on activities, and informational booths from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. This event is organized by the Merced County 4-H, Merced County Farm Bureau, UC Cooperative Extension, UC Merced Library, and the Courthouse Museum. For more information, please contact the Courthouse Museum at 209-723-2401.

The details in this publication is for general information only, and need to not be utilized as a substitute for medical advice. If your youngster is not one particular of these perfect-sorts who really like absolutely nothing more than a bowl of mackerel, then these recipes are fantastic for filling them with healthy fresh fish, and they will still feel like they are tucking into a treat. Stay calm, do not push them, and just calmly explain that they never have to eat, but that the meals they were offered is what is being served and that is all they will get. When deciding on a healthy snack, what you want to stay away from are products with boatloads of sugars, unwanted preservatives and empty calories. Adding a tiny saturated fat—such as butter—to cooked vegetables will not only enhance the taste but also aid to fill your little ones up. Refrain from obsessive calorie counting or commenting on your personal weight, even though, so that your youngsters never adopt unfavorable associations with food.
Properly-intentioned parents may find themselves bargaining or bribing kids so they consume the wholesome meals in front of them. This is ok if it really is not as well often hopefully your close friends will listen to you about perhaps having far more healthier snacks for the little ones subsequent time. I realized that we, as parents, workout authority in several other aspects of our youngsters lives, but turn into a brief order cook at dinner time to please every person in the family. Healthful eating for youngsters Assists improve focus and concentration to make your kid sharper.
It is OK to choose not to eat when both parents and little ones know when to expect the subsequent meal or snack. If you open a packet of potato chips in front of little ones you can't anticipate them to not want to eat some, you cannot have a set of rules for you and separate set of guidelines for them. The prime consumed veggies among Americans are french fries and ketchup (youngsters cannot get satisfied meals themselves!). This is a great resource =) Parents must teach children to be mindful each time they buy anything that they are about to place into their physique.
Children are brilliant little creatures with a God-offered capacity to discover significantly more rapidly than we can. The beauty of only consuming healthy foods is that you do not have to worry about portions or limiting foods, so if the kids are still hungry, let them consume. I just want to make certain she's acquiring at least all the food she demands and not a lot more of one distinct group.
Setting up these patterns as early as possible is the most significant essential to setting our little ones up for a lengthy and healthy life. According to the newest recommendations from the USDA, kids ages two to three need to have 1 cup every of fruit and vegetables each and every day. Also, household meals are a opportunity for parents to introduce kids to new foods and to be role models for wholesome consuming. There is an additional crucial cause why kids should be involved: It can assist prepare them to make great choices on their personal about the foods they want to eat.

So yeah, remember how I said I was busy tracking down some appropriate detergent for my cloth diapers? One thing about cloth diapers is that to make them last longer, you have to get detergent that is free of
- enzymes
- phosphates
- brightening agents
- softener
- bleach
- and if possible, fragrance
That pretty much rules out every adult detergent around as they contain bleach which can destroy the fabric and PUL layer or softeners which make the diapers less absorbent. Some baby detergents contain whitening agents which leave a residue or enzymes to help with cleaning which either leave residues or worse, destroy your diaper.
So when a M'sian based seller recommended Pureen HAD which contains none of those things and was a cheaper alternative to Country Save and 7th Generation Baby Laundry Detergent, I thought it was great.
After making phone calls and visits to at least six different stores in one day, it wasn't really all that great any more. I did ask Mum to help me get some back in KL (and we chatted too…about a few things and the fact that she actually went out and bought one of those weight loss diet pill stuff I put up on my blog) to keep at her place for us to use when we come over with Eva.
It wasn't until this morning that I woke up to an email from the Pureen supplier here that I found out why it was so difficult to look for this particular bottle/model/brand/whatever. They had discontinued it!!!! ARGH! So much for looking for a cheaper alternative.
Now I'm on the hunt for some 7th Generation detergent and if the cost comes up to about the same as Country Save, I might just make the trip now to Bumwear and get it from Rita directly there and then. If you thought that observing poop colour is a sign that you're a mom, wait till you get to the part where even the brand or type of laundry detergent drives you bonkers!
