During the Holiday Season, we recognize how important it is to take time to reflect on the people that mean the most to us, and those who have positively impacted our lives. At Practice Makes Perfect, we appreciate everyone that works hard to make our organization the success that it is. It takes a pyramid of people succeeding in order for PMP to see true growth and expansion. That is why we love it when our students and employees share their own stories of how PMP has positively impacted their lives. One of our amazing mentors, Ajay, has taken the opportunity to reflect on how his experience with Practice Makes Perfect has granted him with the gift of bettering himself, and those in his community:
My name is Ajay and I was a mentor in Practice Makes Perfect's 2015 Summer Program in Jamaica, Queens. Growing up, school didn't always come easy to me. I moved to Queens from Trinidad & Tobago when I was 4 years old with my family. When it came to school, I felt like I was always behind. It took many years, but I finally understood how I learn best and started excelling in school. I'm now in 11th grade at the High School for Law Enforcement & Public Safety and am looking forward to attending college.
I'd like tell you about PMP because it not only gave me the opportunity to better myself, but also better the next generation of students in my community. Over the 5 week program, I mentored a student named John in the 7th grade. He is a special needs teen that requires extra attention and time to succeed. At first, John was very quiet and would snap easily when he did not understand a problem or activity. Throughout the program, I spent an abundant amount of time with John to show him that I believed in him and I would never let him quit.
During the 3rd week, John started opening up. We found out he has a magnificent voice! I would make him sing answers out loud or dance his way to the front to write on the board. Whenever I saw him upset, I would take him out the classroom and just simply talk to him to help him express his emotions. John finally started to enjoy learning. He began spreading positive energy to himself and everyone around him, opening up in a physical, mental and emotional way.
PMP is an incredibly beneficial program for scholars and mentors. Mentors and Teaching Fellows spend quality individual time with each student. They connect to the scholars, not only on a learning level, but also on an emotional level. PMP is a sanctuary and feels like a home for the scholars, a place they can learn, play, and express themselves. Without PMP, all of the students in our Jamaica program would have been home, losing everything they learned the previous school year, and most likely getting into trouble.

I still have a gift card to spend at MAC and was looking online at the products and swatches and nothing really spoke out to me. These days, I don't spend money on makeup, just clothes and shoes. With makeup and skincare, nothing out there really wanted me the part my with money bad as I'm just sticking to the same routine I have. Does anyone else go through this? I still have a lot of products to test and review, maybe thats why. My to do list is never ending…
Saying that, my wish list items are makeup and skincare that stand out from every corner of the internet. I don't have the urge to purchase these but will purchase them if I run out of something I use on a daily basis.

IELTS Cue Card Sample 2 - Your favourite restaurant
- Details
- Last Updated: Wednesday, 31 October 2018 12:56
- Written by IELTS Mentor
- Hits: 253180
IELTS Speaking Part 2: Cue Card/ Candidate Task Card.
Describe your favourite restaurant.
You should say:
- where it is
- what it looks like from inside and outside
- what kinds of food they serve
[You will have to talk about the topic for one to two minutes. You have one minute to think about what you are going to say. You can make some notes to help you if you wish.]
Follow-up Questions:
- Which one is better: home-made food or food from a restaurant?
- What traditional food do you have in your country?
- What types of food tourists in your city prefer?
Cue Card Answer 1:
Thank you very much for giving me an opportunity to talk about my favourite restaurant. The name of my favourite restaurant is Diner's Paradise and it is located in the downtown of the city I live in. I like it because it offers a nice environment and delicious food. Moreover, I have many pleasant memories related to this establishment. My parents celebrated some of my birthday parties there, our college friends arranged get-together parties twice, and in one occasion, one of my cousins' marriage ceremony was celebrated at that very place; and all these events make it special to me.
The restaurant has three floors and the sitting arrangement is extraordinary which does not compromise privacy, unlike many other restaurants. Paintings of famous artists hang on the wall and the place is clean. The interior decoration is simply gorgeous. Besides, the ground floor can park more than 50 cars. It also has a large playground for children. Finally, the front view of the restaurant is unique as it gives the aura of a green and lavish garden.
The restaurant offers several dishes including continental menus, Italian, Thai, Indian, Pakistani and local menus on top of the delightful exotic desserts. Not to mention, the prices are reasonable and the food is served reasonably quickly, contrary to some other eateries where you have to wait for a long for your food to be served. Besides, the attendants and other staff members are friendly and they treat the guests cordially. The restaurant offers a wide range of dishes to pick from and no additional service charge is imposed on the final bill. The soft background music and instrumentals make the environment more enjoyable and soothing. As I have said, tables are not congested and people can enjoy their personal conversations and enjoy sports on large TVs. The large glass-made windows offer the city view which makes the place worth visiting. The place is famous for dining and I have often noticed many foreign tourists visiting the restaurant. It's a good thing that the authority invites customer feedback and comments on food, service and dining experience and they take prompt actions against customer complaints.
I would say, this is a really nice restaurant to go to and enjoy the tasty food and I like it very much.
Cue Card Answer 2:
Thank you very much for this nice topic. I would like to talk about my favourite restaurant and mention where it is, what it looks like, the kinds of food it serves and why it is so special to me.
My favourite restaurant is in England! It is actually in the suburbs of the city of Sheffield where I live in. The restaurant is on a busy street very near to a large park. It is quite a small and hectic place called Jonty's because Jonty is the name of the person who set up the business.
From the outside, the restaurant doesn't look very impressive. It has large glass windows at the front and some benches outside for people to sit on if they are waiting to go in. There used to be a large sign with the name of the restaurant written on it in big letters, but recently they have taken down the sign and not yet replaced it! Inside there are lots of square wooden tables, each with about four chairs around them. The restaurant is on two levels, I prefer to go upstairs to the first floor because there you can sometimes get a window seat and enjoy watching people as they go past in the street outside.
The restaurant serves mainly breakfast and lunch meals. It does really good coffee – I like their latte's best – and lots of sandwiches, salads and special soups. The restaurant also has a selection of delicious, gooey homemade cakes. However, when I go, I always have the same thing – scrambled egg on wholemeal toast with mushrooms, because that is what I like best!
The restaurant is very special to me and my friends because we meet there every Saturday. On Saturday's about 500 people go to the local park for 9.00 in the morning to take part in a 5 km run. Afterwards, I like to go to breakfast at Jonty's with three of my best friends. We feel we deserve a big breakfast after our run, and we enjoy catching up with each other's news over a leisurely meal together.
So if ever you are in Sheffield, I hope you will find Jonty's and enjoy it as much as I do.

Cue Card Answer 3:
'Dine Excellence' is the largest restaurant in our city and this is my favourite eatery in my area. This place offers a great dining experience and the view, both inside and outside, is spectacular. This is a beautiful restaurant with a great price and a clean environment. I often go there to enjoy my meal with my wife and on some occasions, with my friends.
It is a four storied restaurant and the 2nd floor is reserved for parties and special events. The playground for children is large enough and a good number of toys are placed there for children to have fun. The roof-top is my personal favourite as it gives a very clear view of the surrounding nature and the clear blue sky. If it is not raining, I like to enjoy my dinner at the roof-top. The interior decoration of the restaurant is something that makes it stand out from the crowd. The soft music, delicious dishes and well-mannered and prompt staffs make it a worth visiting place for food lovers.
The variety of dishes this restaurant offers is another great thing about it. Someone will find almost any local or famous foreign menu there and the master cooks make the food tasty and worth enjoying. Interestingly, the price of the food in this restaurant is comparatively cheaper and that's the main reason I love this restaurant so much - it is indeed pocket-friendly. Many other restaurants in my city offer delightful dishes and good services, but most of them are expensive.
The weekly music concert and discount for regular customers are two other reasons I prefer it more than other restaurants. I was very surprised to get as high as 30-35% discount on a few occasions and they told me that this was their way of rewarding loyal customers. I would recommend anyone in this city to enjoy the delicious menu this restaurant offers and I am sure most of them would love the experience.

Part 3: Details Discussion:
Q: Which one is better: home-made food or food from a restaurant?
Answer: This question is really enticing. It seems to me that home-made food is healthier; of course, because you are completely responsible for its preparation and you know exactly the ingredients that are included. For example, you are aware of the quantity of salt, olive oil, sugar, pepper et cetera.
On the other hand, food at restaurants is undoubtedly more delicious and satiating, but it isn't as wholesome as the former. These types of food are high in saturated fats and oils and they aren't easily digestible. So I would argue that restaurant food is tastier but the home-made food is healthier. Moreover, food in restaurants is expensive while home-made food is not.
Q: What traditional food do you have in your country?
Answer: For the last three years I have been living in the UK but I am a native of Greece so I would like to talk about Greek traditional foods. Greek cuisine is renowned worldwide and not without a reason. First and foremost we have the famous Greek souvlaki combined with tzatziki. This is the food that anyone who comes to Greece wants to taste. Going further, I can think of Greek mousakas which is a really tasty dish and it consists of potatoes, eggplants, minced beef and cream. Similar to mousakas, pastitsio is equally delicious with some variations. There are many other types of food, but I think that those I have already mentioned are the ''landmark'' of the Greek diet.
Q. What types of food tourists in your city prefer?
Answer: The types of food tourists in Greece try and enjoy vary greatly. Some tourists come here to enjoy traditional food like Barbouni, Dolmades, Kokoretsi and Gigandes. Some try fast-food and like to visit a food court that has brands like KFC or McDonald's. Finally, many solely prefer vegan items like Fava, Spanakopita and Skordalia.
I have even seen some tourists who try anything they find interesting and young tourists mostly fall into this category.
Tips: You can talk about some local food items from your hometown, or from your own country as well for the above question. You can see some examples below:
England: fish and chips, different kinds of meat pies such as kidney, cottage, steak and pork pies, black peas, scotch eggs, roast beef and Yorkshire pudding.
Italy: pizza, spaghetti, breadsticks, acquacotta, carbonara, tortellini.
France: soupe à l'oignon, boeuf bourguignon, flamiche, ratatouille.
Germany: doner kebab, currywurst, wiener schnitzel, kasespatzle.
USA: pancakes, club sandwich, cheeseburger, macaroni and cheese, pumpkin and apple pie.
India: Chhole Bhature, Rogan Josh, Makki Ki Roti, Matar Paneer, Panipuri, Tunday Kebab, Hilsa Fish Curry, Vada Pav, Hyderabadi Biryani, Dosa, Indian Chaat.
Japan: Sushi, Tempura, Sashimi, Udon, Kaiseki.

BUSINESS HOURS : Mo, Tu, We, Th, Fr 8:30am - 5:00pm
Depression is one of the most serious symptoms of HGH and Testosterone deficiency. When these levels are low there are so many negative symptoms like low energy, mental fogginess, weight gain, loss of muscle mass, and an overall feeling of not being well. As a result of these symptoms, many men fall into a deep sense of not being in control of their life. These low levels can affect the production of the thyroid of serotonin (Also Known as the happy Hormone), sliding men into a deep depression. This is even more serious when you consider Men are 70% more likely to commit suicide and run a 60% greater risk of chemical dependency as compared to their female counterparts. It has been determined that men that are low on HGH and Testosterone are as much as 400% more at risk to fall into depression.
Because there is such a strong relationship between Male depression and Low HGH and testosterone levels, It is significant that you get these hormones in balance. Because Oklahoma Men's Clinic specializes in the field it is as easy as coming in and getting tested. The worst that could happen is you find a better healthier life.

Bet365 Preview: Napoli - Inter Milan: Expect both teams to score
Napoli square up with Inter Milan on Saturday for their Serie A encounter at Stadio San Paolo as they hope to continue their topflight dominance.
Partenopei will be coming into this duel on the back of their 2-1 loss to Manchester City in the Uefa Champions League and will be looking to get back to winning ways.
Editors' Picks
- Three games, no wins! Lampard return to Stamford Bridge ruined despite Mount magic
- Deja VAR! Familiar frustration for City but dazzling De Bruyne display will delight Pep
- Bale back and no new signings: Zidane's new Madrid a lot like the old one
- Sadio steps up again! Marvellous Mane is Liverpool's game-changer
Maurizio Sarri's men are unbeaten in the league as they have secured the maximum points in all their eight games.
Besides that, they have won 12 of their last 14 engagements and Bet365 is offering (1.61) for them to continue with the impressive form.
Both sides have met 36 times with seven ending in draws. odds of (4.20) are on offer for the same result to repeat itself here.
Inter boast of 22 points in eight games and occupy second spot on the log, two short of their opponents who sit at the summit. They have come out on top in 15 of their last 18 games and are a pricy (5.00) for victory in the Campania capital.
The Naples outfit have socred 34 goals in 13 matches while their visitors have netted 26 in the same number of games. Bet365 is offering (1.53) for more than three goals to be produced at the Sao Paolo and (1.57) for both sides to find the net.
Dries Mertens has socred seven league goals this term and can be backed at (1.57) to increase his tally anytime in the tie.
Mauro Icardi was the hero in the Milan Derby last weekend with a fantastic hattrick as the Nerazzurri ran out 3-2 victors. The Argentine forward now has nine goals from eight league games and is (1.901.90) to score anytime.

A great product or service idea could be worth millions or even billions of dollars, but you could find yourself in an undesirable position if you fail to obtain a patent. To put it simply, anyone can rip-off your idea and begin selling it under their name unless you take the proper legal steps to secure ownership of your idea.
The most profitable patent ever belongs to pharmaceutical company Pfizer, whose best-selling drug Lipitor brought in $131 billion while its patent was still valid. Although patent protection expires after 14 or 20 years, depending on the type of item that has been patented, this gives companies, inventors and entrepreneurs a long period of time to produce their product and turn a profit.
Getting a patent is not necessarily easy, and it will require you to fill out a lot of paperwork and pay a large fee. Due to this, it is important to ensure that you pay close attention to each step of the patent process so that you can maximize your idea and potential profits.
The Invention Process
You can invent anything that pops into your head, but going beyond this stage requires some forethought. After all, if your idea is not new or practical, it is not likely to become profitable. Therefore, part of the invention process should involve performing due diligence to make sure that you do not end up sinking thousands of hours and dollars into an unviable product. You will also want to double-check that no one else has filed a similar patent before you move forward.
How to Get Your Idea Patented and Licensed
It is necessary to fill out a patent application and pay all of the applicable fees to get the process started. The provisional patent application is only $130, but this figure is very misleading. Industry experts have stated that it often costs more than $8,000 to file for even the most simplistic product patent with the assistance of an attorney, and this price can quickly balloon to more than $18,000. Therefore, it is best to work with an experienced patent marketing team to get the most bang for your buck and to help minimize the overall cost.
Patent Marketing
At any given time, there are millions of patent ideas being conceived and worked on around the world, but most of these concepts will never come to fruition. The harsh reality is that the marketplace is already flooded with products and services, so it is vital to come up with a truly unique idea that people will actually have a need for. Additionally, you need to be passionate about marketing your idea.
Scott Cooper of World Patent Marketing says that promoting a patent requires a lot more than just a social media presence: "If you want to successfully market your idea, you have to live and breathe your invention. It basically needs to become a part of you. You should market your idea aggressively, pursuing every valuable opportunity that comes your way. In fact, promoting your invention is just as important as the actual inventing process."
Ideally, you will utilize the services of a patent marketing company to assist you because they have the necessary knowledge and skills to put together an attractive marketing campaign. Taking this step can make it much easier to get your foot in the door with major retailers.
Your idea could turn out to be bigger than Pfizer's Lipitor patent, but you will never know if you do not sit down with a patent expert to discuss everything. After you have the initial concept design and have figured out how the product will be made, it is best to get help from people who file and market patents on a daily basis.

Why Should I Become a Volunteer?
CItrus Heights Little League is an organization designed to build good citizens. It is a program of leadership, preparing today's youth to be tomorrow's leaders. We rely on a devoted legion of pareny volunteers to help ensure that our organization runs smoothly. Citrus Heights Little League is always looking for responsible and enthusiastic individuals to support and coordinate Little League events and activities. As a volunteer, you should have an interest in the safety of our kids, their well-being, and overall development as both children and players.
Volunteer Opportunities
Team Manager or Coach
Being a manager or coach requires time, patience, and basic knowledge of the game of baseball. You may be required to attend meetings, instructional sessions, or seminars. You will communicate with the parents/guardians of your players to inform them of any schedule changes, rainouts, and Little League events and activities.
As a manager or coach, you have more interaction with young people than anyone else in Little League. Therefore, it is important that you understand the goals and virtues of our Little League program in order to effectively communicate them to your players. To gain a better understanding of what those goals and virtues are, visit the National Little League's homepage or speak with any one of our board members.
Helping with Field Maintenance
In some cases, your local Little League is required to maintain the fields that your child plays on. As a part of the field maintenance crew, your skills and abilities may be used to mow grass, line fields, rake dirt, and execute minor repairs on fences, benches and bleachers. We will always announce field maintenance days on our Facebook Page. These work days are important as they allow us to provide a clean, well kept playing environment for your child. Please consider joining us on these days. The more hands we have, the lighter the work load is for everyone.
Becoming a League Board Member / Leadership Roles
A list of current board members can be found on our ABOUT US page. We can always use help at a board of directors level. Please contact us id you have an interest in volunteering for one of these positions.
- League President
- Vice President
- Secretary
- Treasurer
- Player Agent
- Safety Officer
- Internet/Information Officer
- Coaching Coordinator
- Sponsorship Coordinator
- Uniform Manager
- Grounds Manager
- Snack Bar Manager
Being an Umpire
While home plate umpires are scheduled well in advance, field umpires are often determined minutes before the game begins. As you arrive at your child's game, your coach or the home plate umpire may ask you to be the field umpire. When you agree, your main responsibilities are to call plays on the bases, determine if balls are fair or foul, and assist the home plate umpire with other calls.
Snack Bar
Snack bar sales fund league events, equipment and maintenance tools. While the team manager works hard to create snack bar schedules for parents to work home game shifts, this is something where some families struggle. It is important that we have a list of backup volunteers who can help fill these spots as needed. Please contact our snack bar coordinator for more information.

Chop, dice, slice, blend, mix, grate and purée like a pro by adding a food processor to your arsenal of kitchen gadgets. A food processor can make light work of complex recipes and save you precious prep time when whipping up healthy midweek meals – it's little wonder Jamie Oliver's 15-Minute Meals TV show and cookbook used a food processor in almost every recipe.
It's the ultimate helping hand in the kitchen, especially if you're cooking for a crowd or filling your freezer with batch-cooked goodness. Whether whizzing up chunky marinades, mixing healthy snacks or blending protein shakes, a food processor is a multi-tasking marvel. Here's our pick of the best buys.
Best All-Rounder: Tefal DO824H40 DoubleForce Pro
This stylish machine functions as both a blender and a food processor, with its 1,000W motor making light work of slicing and dicing whatever you put in it. There are six preset programmes that will adjust the speed for you during food prep, and the nine dishwasher-safe attachments offer 31 different functions.
Buy on Amazon | £119.99
Best Budget Food Processor: Kenwood MultiPro Compact FDP301SI Food Processor
Lightweight and compact, this space-saving gadget is reassuringly sturdy and comes with a range of blades for slicing, grating and chopping as well as an emulsifying tool for whipping cream and eggs. Unusually for such an affordable machine, you can adjust the power settings and use the pulse button to mix things up in short bursts. It's a good pick for small kitchens (as long as you have somewhere to stash the included blender attachment).
Buy on Amazon | £60
Best Mini Food Processor: Cuisinart EC4HU Mini
Some mini food processors can frustrate with their lack of power. Not so the Cuisinart EC4HU, which will handle dips and dressings with ease. The 900ml chopping bowl is obviously not best suited for making big meals, but the space saved will be a blessing for those in small kitchens.
Buy on Amazon | £48.60
Best Food Processor Under £20: Kenwood CH180A Mini Chopper
The chopping bowl has a capacity of only 350ml and the motor puts out only 300 watts, but this cheap processor will still get the job done if you're tight on both space and budget. There are two speed options and the bowl is dishwasher safe.
Buy on Amazon | £17.45
Most Stylish Food Processor: KitchenAid Classic Food Processor
This retro-looking appliance offers a number of useful and unique features such as an adjustable disc to control the thickness of your slices, as well as a jumbo feed tube that can handle whole fruit and vegetables. There's a reversible shredding disc for fine and coarse grating, and a multi-purpose blade for all your mixing and blending needs.
Buy on Amazon | £179.99 (RRP £199)
Best Multi-Tasking Food Processor: Nutri Ninja Complete Kitchen System
Equipped with a punchy 1,500-watt motor, this jack of all trades serves as a food processor, a large blender and a NutriBullet-style smoothie maker. It can blitz, blend, grate, slice and crush ice in a flash, and its handy one-touch Auto IQ programme lets you throw ingredients together and stand back while it works its magic. It comes with a range of blades, discs, jugs and cups so you'll need to make sure you've got storage space, but this all-in-one gadget should cover all your kitchen needs.
Buy on Argos | £190
Best High-End Food Processor: Magimix 5200XL
A quality buy for foodies and families, this solid piece of kit comes with a 30-year guarantee so you can rest assured that it's built to last. It has three different bowls to deal with everything from a single egg to a family feast and they all nest inside each other for easy storage. The dough blade, egg whisk, citrus press and discs for grating and slicing cover all culinary bases and the powerful 1,100-watt motor is surprisingly quiet.
Buy on Amazon | £299 (RRP £320)

I know it sounds crazy. It sounds unbelievable. It sounds like I'm doing intellectual gymnastics to somehow make peace with the fact that I'm in a wheelchair. When I was inpatient at Mary Free Bed doing rehab, I heard an interview with a professional athlete who had become paralyzed. He was saying that if he could go back to being the guy he was before his accident, he would not do it. I thought this was baloney. I thought that he had to be lying to himself to make himself feel better, and to impress other people with how far he had come.
But now, seven years later, I am the guy in the video. I can't imagine being the person inside that I was anymore. There are multiple reasons why, including my first blog post on this topic. But the bottom line is, if going back to being in a fully functioning body (I would do almost anything for) meant that I had to be the inward person that I was before, I wouldn't do it. And here's big reason number two...
Living in such a visibly broken body keeps me humble. Let me tell you a quick story.
In 2007 I broke my neck. Shortly thereafter, I started having affair. I've told elements of the story in the "Our Story" part of this website. But one element I've never shared is this. Watching the toll it took on my kids. Luckily they were young enough to not have many direct memories of Shelley I being separated, And we have begun to tell them elements of the story. But watching what I had done to our marriage was devastatingly humbling.
Even though I was living in a hotel across town from our house, I still had to find way to see the kids. This usually came in the form of this… my buddy drove to Grand Rapids from Kalamazoo. He pick me up at the hotel and drove me to the house. He went and got the kids who came out to the car in the middle of December and went crazy hugging me, then began asking me when I was moving home. We would drive by Wendy's, drive to the hotel, change into bathing suits in my room, and then go swimming.
This was not a luxurious pool. It was not a luxurious hotel. It was a 1960s, Beirut upkeep, run down, stains in the hallways, cracked concrete around the pool... hotel.
We would swim for a couple hours, then my buddy and I would take them back home (because I couldn't drive).
We would drive back to the hotel in stunned silence, reflecting on the fact that I was not living with my family that God had so graciously given me. The thought would hit me, "look at this sad shadow of a father that I was to my kids. It was all my fault.
And now, with the amount of time I've had to reflect on what has happened and why, I realize it was pride more than anything else that took me to that dark place. I thought that I deserved something that I didn't. Somewhere in the deep recesses of my cracked up, frazzled, emotionally bankrupt brain, I must've thought I was different. I must've thought that because of my extreme circumstances, I didn't have to play by the same rules everyone else had to.
I am a prideful person. I don't think I knew what that meant until I was 32 or 33. Here's how it breaks down. Being prideful is not the same as being arrogant. It's not the same as being cocky. I am a people person, and I've never wanted anyone to walk away from an interaction with me and feel less about themselves. On the contrary, I want people to walk away from me feeling better about themselves and what they are capable of. But that doesn't mean that inside I didn't have an unhealthy view of myself, my accomplishments, and my abilities I think that He uses the extreme circumstances that my handicap brings about to keep me sensitive to how broken we are, and how much we rely on God for every breath that we take.
Some people need constant reminders that we are redeemed. We are forgiven. We are whole. We are God's chosen. Whether it's good or whether it's bad… this is not me. Got has built into me a healthy self image that I know he has lifted me up and set me in a high place of esteem. But I need constant reminders of my depravity and my brokenness and my utter pointlessness without him.
Which brings us to today. I am going in for a procedure that is going to fix the pump that pumps a tiny amount of baclofen into my spinal column. It is actually A wonderful thing. When you're paralyzed, your muscles tend to tighten up. This means you have to take an oral drug called baclofen to keep them limber. Baclofen is tough on your liver. You get the pump, and use a tiny amount and it bypasses your liver.
For whatever reason, my pump is malfunctioning. So I am going in today to get it fixed.
My pride is a check today
I know I'm loved. I know God has chosen me as his child… but any day you were going under general anesthesia, when someone is going to cut into your abdomen and put a stainless steel hockey puck in there you feel rather mortal. (anyhow… when Ava died Shelly and I both bought burial plots. I know the place on the earth where they are going to bury my body someday. How mortal is that?)
Please be praying for Shelly and for me. Logistics are kicking our butts right now. I have another procedure on Monday and I have another health condition that is swirling around in the offing. Not sure what to make of it. More later. Love you all. Under the knife… Here I come!

Association TELA BOTANICA Institut de Botanique 163, Rue Auguste Broussonnet 34090 Montpellier Tél. +334 67 52 41 22 firstname.lastname@example.com
In development
Look at Tela Botanica as a canvas: paint drops represent network members and the splatters of colour are the members' common projects (one colour per project), so the relay member would be a drop of colour that the splatter would make stronger – a member whose strong knowledge in one or several Tela Botanica projects. By sharing knowledge, this relay drop deepens the other members' knowledge – and so the common project would itself be strengthened.
With 18,000 passionate botanical members, this site would like to develop the following : time for fun and friendly physical activities, connections between local institutions and Tela Botanica, support of basic tools, interactive science programs, network knowledge and the like.
Improved dissemination of botanical knowledge, knowledge-sharing tools, free access to plant identification tools, etc. by cooperating volunteer members.
With 18,000 current members, we can touch a community of several hundred thousand people, but it's hard to say right now…
The fact that there was an increase in the number of registered users, proposed projects and a direct demand from community members

Our Brochures
How things work in the ER
St Maarten Medical Center's extensive commitment to the community of St Maarten and neighboring islands includes an emergency department which is open 24 hours a day, every day of the year.
Our staff stands ready to serve when you need us most, providing treatment for minor emergencies to life-threatening heart attacks, stroke and trauma. Ambulance personnel work closely with our ER team to ensure that the community has the best emergency treatment available.
It is important to know that the ER uses a patient sorting system called triage. A nurse assesses your condition to determine what level of care you need. Patients evaluated with the most serious injuries and conditions are treated first. Therefore it is important to clearly state your symptoms and/or the purpose of your visit. Read our brochure How things work in the ER, to learn more about our Triage care system.
The SMMC emergency department treats about 1000 patients each month. We strive to keep patient waiting time minimal. There are four treatment rooms. Medical specialists can also be called in for consultation or treatment, which will affect the waiting time. When needed, diagnostic exams such as X-ray, Lab, CAT Scan and Ultrasound testing are available 24/7. Surgeons and operation team are also available or on call 24/7.
The ER caters to visitors from the region, including visitors from the cruise ships. Almost 10% of the ER patients are visitors to the island.
We do not give medical advice over the telephone. Patients are referred by their doctors, cruise ship doctors or are self referred.

Lunch at Tatsuya
Posted January 27, 2011on:
- In: Food | Japanese | Reviews
- 11 Comments
Tatsuya is well-known for being the premier sushi destination of Singapore, but it is also well-known for its high prices. However, Tatsuya offers good value for money lunch bento sets and this is what I came for to try.
They're almost filled up everyday and reservations must be made if you want to secure a seat there. Luckily the bentos are offered everyday expect for public holidays, so I chose to go on a weekend.
They have a whole row of sushi chefs manning the long counter, each one serving the customers nearest to them.
In front of them is a long line of steel refrigeration compartments filled with fresh seafood, waiting to be turned into tasty morsels for hungry people.
The one in front of my seat stocked 2 huge abalones!
And here is a sushi chef, deftly making some sushi with quick and sure hand movements.
I had the standard lunch bento set, which comes with 6 pieces of sushi, 3 tuna and 3 cucumber maki, assorted tempura, tamago and 2 California maki. Rounding this off is chawanmushi, miso soup and fruits for dessert.
It's definitely very filling by the time you finish everything there. The tempura was light and crunchy, the tamago was sweet and fluffy, and the chawanmushi was so smooth and delicious.
The sushi have really fresh toppings; salmon, tuna, hamachi and prawn. However they were a lot smaller than I expected, about half the size of the normal sushi outside. Still, it doesn't take away from how good they were.
This is the ladies lunch set, which is similar to the bento except only 4 pieces of sushi, and their tempura are 2 pieces of ebi kakiage. But the biggest difference there is the soba instead of the maki.
Tatsuya's lunch sets are definitely one to try for, given their value for money. There are more lunch sets as well, such as a sashimi or unagi set, but these 2 are the more popular ones.

I love these photos!! =) And yes, Tatsuya's set lunches are really affordable!
I would love to have the lunch bento! But till now I'm still very lazy to travel there. haha 😛
The sushi you eat at other places, aka SSB lolx, are way to big then lol. Sushi at Aoki, Nogawa and the likes are similar in size to Tatsuya's.
Here's my dining table.
the sushi all look delectable! don't mind me asking – how much is a bento set on average?
nice photos! do you prefer tatsuya's or chikuwa tei's chawanmushi?

India Today Special Correspondent Shyamlal Yadav has won the National RTI award given by PCRF-NDTV. Yadav was among 1,130 nominees and is the only media representative in a field full of professionals and RTI activists to be accorded this honour.
The award, which includes Rs 1 lakh and a citation, will be presented by Vice President of India, Hamid Ansari, on Tuesday, December 1. Yadav was selected by a high-powered jury consisting actor Aamir Khan, chief mentor of Infosys Technologies N.R. Narayana Murthy, NDTV's CMD Prannoy Roy, danseuse Mallika Sarabhai, Madhu Trehan, Justice (retd) J.S. Verma, former chief election commissioner J.M. Lyngdoh, Pullela Gopichand and Sanjay Gupta, to name a few. This is the first year of the award being instituted and Yadav is among the first winners.
The award is in recognition of path-breaking investigative stories done on the back of information gathered by India Today.
|Frequent flyers
|Babus flights of fancy
|A lot to hide
|Open secret
|Funds and games
|Local conveyance of Union ministries
|LIC's lapsed policies
|System of assets declaration in state CM's offices and Assemblies
These include Frequent Fliers, the expose on foreign jaunts by ministers in the UPA regime, Babus Flights of Fancy on bureaucrats of the Union Government junketeering and A Lot To Hide was on pending corruption cases against IAS/IPS/IRS officers.
India Today also looked at issues like the delay in the hanging of Afzal Guru, the non-declaration of assets by Union ministers, state expansionism through committees and groups of ministers and the so-called austerity drive and expenditure incurred in hiring of cars by government and income tax returns of political parties. In fact, there is hardly any part of the government that queries have not been filed on. Till date, Yadav has filed over 1,700 applications across ministries, some of which are in process and will find their way into the pages of India Today.
The winning of this award is not an accident. When the Right to Information Act was passed in October 2005, India Today asked correspondents across the country to use the law to dredge information to make public persons and institutions accountable. The award to Yadav represents the reality that a combination of RTI and editorial diligence can be lethal in exposing wrongdoing, malfeasance and poor governance. It is, of course, not easy. Yadav says the power of the Act notwithstanding, "It is difficult to extract information and experience has taught us many lessons and tricks that can be used to trap babus".

Alley Kat Long Johns Salted Caramel Ale
Reviewed by Brady White on October 27, 2017 in Local Heroes Guide
The Details
- Brewery: Alley Kat Brewing Company
- Origin: Edmonton, AB, CA
- Rated On: October 27, 2017
- Best Before: N/A
- Ideal Temperature: cool to cellar temperature
- Style: Salted Caramel Ale
- Rating: GOOD !
The Review
This 341ml bottle pours a clear, dark bronzed amber colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat fizzy tan head, which leaves some random exploding sea wave lace around the glass as it slowly but surely sinks away.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, saltine soup crackers, a bit of toasted marshmallow, and a very tame earthy and floral (hop, I'm guessing) bitterness. The taste is biscuity and grainy caramel malt, vanilla wafers, saltwater, simple syrup, and more well understated earthy, musty, and leafy green hoppiness. The carbonation is adequate in its palate-caressing frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and generally smooth, with a nice airy creaminess worming its way in once things warm up a tad around here. It finishes off-dry, the faintly salted caramel thing lingering well into the night.
Overall – this is a simple and enjoyable seasonal effort, with lots of nicely sweet flavours. Maybe they could have amped up the ABV a bit, given the impending change in the weather, but I suppose there will be plenty of that elsewhere soon enough.

Qaeda wants to 'haemorrhage' aviation industry by planting more bombs on planes
London, Nov.29 (ANI): Al-Qaeda terrorists have announced that they are training a new generation of bomb makers to target planes. group operating out of terrorism hotbed Yemen claims it wants to cause a "haemorrhage" in the aviation industry.
According to the Daily Star, the group said it has switched its focus from suicide bombers to disrupting transatlantic trade with explosives hidden on freight aircraft.
A spokesman wrote online: "Our objective is not a maximum kill but to cause a haemorrhage in the aviation industry. This industry is so vital for trade and transportation between the US and Europe."
Terrorism expert Neil Doyle said the strategy was known as "bleeding the West" by extremists.
Doyle added: "The aim is to cause as much disruption as possible rather than casualties." (ANI)

Trees of Life
By Thomas Connors | Photo: Jamie Padgett | October 17, 2016
Once the decision to rebuild was made, these Lincoln Park homeowners knew nature would be their guide. Architect Paul Florian listened, and this stunning modern masterpiece is the result.
The term "tree hugger" can be a badge of honor, and you don't have be a charter member of the Sierra Club or a Greenpeace activist to fit the bill. Take the case of this Lincoln Park couple: Having lived for years in an 1890s house that had long since been stripped of any architectural charm, the two began to rethink their living situation. They considered renovation, and for a short time toyed with the idea of moving. But they owned a double lot, one of which was anchored by two mature white oaks. "We knew that if we sold, someone would probably take those trees down. We wanted to save the trees," the homeowners agree.
Once that decision was made, the couple engaged architect Paul Florian of Chicago-based Florian Architects to help them realize a practical, purposeful home: one that allowed them to put down roots in a new way. They wanted a place that fit in with the neighborhood, but they had no firm idea of how they wanted their new residence to look. Florian, whose work ranges from scrupulously realized neo-traditional designs to timely contemporary projects, subtly steered his clients toward a decidedly more modern mode. "We really did not have a vision of this house as a very modern house when we started," says the husband. "We didn't want anything industrial. We wanted warmth and intimacy. We wanted it to be livable," he explains. "Paul took us on a journey," adds the wife, "and because we trusted him, we went along."
"The clients wanted to make best use of the site without harming the garden, and they wanted a greater connection to the outdoors than they'd had before," relates Florian. "They wanted informal living spaces, but other than that, the program was pretty open."
With green space foremost in his mind, Florian devised a composition of three amply fenestrated volumes with a separate garage linked to the house by a covered passageway. The L-shaped plan—with the garage placed apart from the house—generates a more active relationship between the massing of the home and the open space, and also provides room for an additional garden area adjacent to the free-flowing kitchen and family room.
In addition to merging the interior and the outdoors through extensive glazing and multiple terraces, Florian fashioned the building as an arrangement of intersecting components. The flooring in the living room extends outward to form a patio under the towering oak trees. A black granite slab that marks a corner between the living and dining room slides outside to create a pedestal for a piece of sculpture.
Inside, Florian mediated the geometry of the home by combining hard and soft materials. The dining room terminates in a wall of cold-rolled steel, but the floor is bleached hickory. The kitchen contains a concealed refrigerator behind cabinets faced in reflective white glass while upper cabinets in stained, sliced maple provide even more storage and further camouflage the room's functionality. The welded steel staircase features walnut treads. And to modulate the sheer transparency of the great wall of windows that face the shade garden, Florian topped it with a transom of patterned glass. "Paul spent a lot of time studying how the light comes in at certain times of the day and in different seasons," says the wife. "That was definitely one of his priorities."
From the street facade, where a plane of warmly hued Cor-Ten steel on the second story telegraphs the home's architectural ambitions, to the black concrete block wall of the garage, which forms a wonderfully everyday backdrop to the greenery of the garden, the home strikes an understatedly artful balance. Florian's design combines a rigorous consideration of the built form with a genuine—and generous—embrace of nature. Like the ancient white oaks that stood before it, this carefully plotted home is a fluent expression of its owners' greenest desires.

In a Nutshell: Quite fun! Doesn't take itself seriously. Not as good as the original Matrix film, but better than either sequel, IMO.
Quick Plot: A mysterious masked figure in the near-future seeks to topple a strict dictatorial government with the help of a young woman he abducted, and hopefully the rest of the nation.
In Detail: While I wouldn't quite say that this film lives up to its hype, it was great fun to watch. It is not meant to be serious (though it does have a few serious points to make in a satirical fashion), so just turn off your brain and watch. The V monologue alone is worth the price of admission. Quite a bit of stylish action, a large dollop of wit, and some fantastic tongue in cheek humor make for an enjoyable two hours. I have a special fondness for the actor who plays V (I won't give it away for those who like to guess), so that certainly doesn't hurt. Several have criticized it on moral grounds, and in light of world events of the last 5 years, I can see their point to a certain extent. Then again, perhaps that is one of the points of the movie, no? You decide.
Will I Buy It? I'd put it on the maybe list. I'd like to see it again to decide if I'd watch it frequently. I'm not sure that I would; I prefer The Matrix.

Labels: V, Will I Buy It - Maybe
In a Nutshell: Bleh. Don't bother. Even films I don't expect much from need more than Milla Jovovich in skimpy costumes and CG effects.
Quick Plot: A group of genetic outcasts capture a weapon that will obliterate all of their kind from the planet. The agent sent to intercept it learns that it may also be the key to a cure. Can the cure be discovered before the others destroy it, or will it be the end of her people?
In Detail: We did not go into this film expecting very much, but it delivered even less. We thought of it it on the same level as The Scorpion King: great late late night film, should be a fun and forgettable 2 hours. The Scorpion King looks Oscar caliber compared to Ultraviolet and contains immeasurably more plot. It also doesn't take itself too seriously, whereas Ultraviolet tries to be both serious and relevant (and fails dismally). More than a few people left about 30 minutes in (it wasn't quite *that* bad). Several action sequences were either too long and/or too repetitive, to the point of using some of the same footage. What little plot there was seemed made up as they went along. I'm all for twists, but these didn't make any sense. It was like sitting in a room and asking for plot points for any movie, then trying to make them fit into this one with little or no effort to connect them (should there have been a way to do so), and some other things that could have used explanation were never even touched on. The effects were cool, yes, but that alone cannot carry a film. Let's not even discuss the acting. I've seen worse movies for sure, but this one was pretty bad.
Will I Buy It? You're kidding, right? Nope.

In a Nutshell: Great fun! Especially for the sci-fi or action genre fans. Definitely makes me want see Firefly (the canceled TV series the film is based on).
Quick Plot: The crew of Serenity take on a fugitive passenger with surprising capabilities, and her nameless pursuer will stop at nothing to get her back.
In Detail: First, allow me to state that I have never seen a single episode of Firefly, the television show on which this film is based, so I was not sure if I would understand much of what was going on. We followed along just fine. I do think there were parts where I was missing something, and I'm sure there was much subtexting and many subtleties that went right over my head, but overall, it was a very enjoyable ride. This is going to sound ridiculous at first, but I hope you will understand what I mean: it really is more of an action film set in space than a "sci-fi film" per se. And quite a good action flick at that; just turn off your brain and let it ride. The characters are interesting, the dialog is snappy if a little (intentionally) odd in cadence (though many of the best lines were used in the previews; I hate that!), and the fight sequences are exceptionally well filmed, edited, and choreographed (I genuinely believed she was kicking their butts!). You may recall that I was highly critical of the way the fight sequences in Batman Begins were shot. Had it been done this way, it would have rocked the house! Seriously, all action films should take notes from how these fights were done. A few of the plot points had the feel of being a checklist of things that needed to be addressed after the series was abruptly canceled, but as someone who appreciates when film makers pay homage to the source television material, I have no problem with that, and most of it did end up being relevant to the story presented in the film. Truly the best compliment I can give this movie is that it makes me really want to see the television show.
Will I Buy It? I'm thinking about it. I'd like to see it again to decide if it is something we'd watch over and over. It is definitely our kind of film, and if we ever see Firefly, we might be more inclined. It is currently on the "maybe" list.
Addendum: We have since seen the series, Firefly, and it is one of our all time favorite series ever. We watch the whole series (14 episodes) 1-2 times a year, we love it so much. So yes, we bought the movie, though it is much harder to watch now.

Mansmith and Fielders Inc. is a provider of marketing, sales, and innovation training in the Philippines. In 2004, during its 15th anniversary, it transformed into an advocacy-based company, the only training company in the world helping marketing practitioners, SMEs (small and medium enterprises), marketing professors and marketing students. CEO Chiqui Escareal-Go shared her insights on advocacy and doing good (as told to Josiah Go).
Q1: You have been with Mansmith for over 10 years. What was it like before and after you took over?
A: Back when it was founded in 1990, Mansmith was inspired by a simple passion for learning—i.e., learning beyond textbooks, learning from experts, learning about what matters in business, among others. There was an opportunity for a training company to concentrate in the area of marketing and sales which was sort of against the grain that time, as all other training companies were offering all sorts of courses without specialization—like journalism and creative writing, credit and collection, together with marketing and sales. Executive education was not popular then as companies saw training as a cost rather than as an investment. It was important to focus on a target market whose needs we knew so well and to get the best speakers and consultants to offer the most relevant and updated training courses needed by the industry.
For Mansmith, this kind of focus and specialization has not changed over the years as the industry took notice then and up until now. What has changed is how we grow with the times, with the way we communicate with our clients, with how we keep ourselves updated with the latest development in executive education while never losing sight of how we came to be in the first place. As entrepreneurs in the training industry, we saw everything as a challenge to be overcome, and we had the energy, the drive, and always the inspiration to make things happen. That kind of passion is priceless and incomparable.
Before I took over in 2004, Mansmith was like a favorite hobby of Josiah Go where he enjoyed developing programs—based on the latest in knowledge, based on his access to the industry and its stalwarts and based on actual experience gained from growing his entrepreneurial business. (Editor's note: Josiah, a marketing expert, is Chiqui's husband.)
By then, Mansmith had already gained some prominence as partners Rowen Untivero and Emilio Macasaet III joined him to handle the sales, key account and distribution courses that were key topics in the marketing and sales curriculum. (I came in later to handle the service and execution programs and other consultants such as Malu Dy Buncio, Poch Cid, Frances Yu, and Donald Lim joined us to complete the curriculum in direct selling, market research and insighting, retail marketing, and digital marketing.) With that kind of a powerhouse team, I was ready to grow Mansmith from a hobby that was already doing well, to a business that solidified its position as the lead marketing and sales training company in the Philippines.
Mansmith grew by 400% the first year I took over—just by thinking bigger and by what I call "cleaning up" so we have more space and time for more relevant activities and programs. Just as we thought the path had become clearer on where we wanted Mansmith to go, my hands-on approach brought me to an even bigger insight that transformed the business into an advocacy-focused training company.
Q2: Early in Mansmith, you converted it from a mere marketing and sales specialist training to an advocacy-based company, what was your insight for this move?
A: When I first handled Mansmith, I needed to know everything from scratch—how we generated sales, how we used technology, how we created presentations and handouts, how we coordinated with suppliers and all other aspects of the business. This required a very hands-on approach in my case as I would personally deal with clients (and suppliers), and go through evaluation forms to see what they say they liked or would like us to improve on—I still go through each and every evaluation form until today. I took these things to heart as I know that excellent execution in all our programs is a reflection of our standards of professionalism.
In one of those interactions with participants, someone said that they just don't go to Mansmith to learn. He said, "when someone in our team gets sent to a Mansmith seminar, we know that person is up for promotion." That was such a powerful statement that I discussed with Josiah immediately and told him, "we don't just train people, we help them climb corporate ladders." This made us re-think our previous position as "Specialists in marketing and sales training" to "Helping your marketing and sales teams soar!"
With that simple change brought about by a powerful understanding of who we are to our clients, we have evolved as an advocacy-based company that saw the creation of the Mansmith Young Market Masters Awards (YMMA, that recognizes outstanding marketers 35 years old and below); the Mansmith Market Masters Awards (MMMA, that recognizes outstanding mentors of our YMMAwardees); the Mansmith Market Masters Conference (where 100% of net proceeds go to advocacy programs),; (co-founded) MarkProf Foundation (free training bootcamp for graduating marketing students as a resume equalizer for those not coming from exclusive schools); Association of Marketing Educators scholarship (for marketing professors); Day 8 Business Academy (free or pay-what-you-want training for SMEs); and more recently, the Women Center for Achievement, Research and Entrepreneurship (or WomenCarePh, which is focused on gender-related issues).
I believe we are the only company in the world with many advocacies under our wing. We're very happy doing this and very honored, we're able to pay back to the Philippine marketing industry which has affirmed us all throughout these [more than] 25 years.
Q3: Tell us about Mansmith Young Market Masters Awards (YMMA) and Day 8 Business Academy?
A: To help marketing teams soar and to raise the standards of marketing in the country, we thought of recognizing the best young marketers who can serve as role models to other young or future marketers. There are many young people who have already done well with their brands and with their companies even at an early age and do not usually get recognized in industry recognitions because it's their bosses who are usually awarded. We wanted young people to aspire early in their careers that their good work will not go unnoticed. Thus was born the Mansmith Young Market Masters Awards, which is now on its 11th year.
On the other hand, there were two triggers in the creation of Day 8 Business Academy. One were requests we were receiving from people who wanted to attend Mansmith seminars but found the course investment beyond their personal budget and the other was from an insight we got from the free consultancy programs we had with Entrepreneur magazine and BusinessWorld newspaper which we called Marketing Rescue. In the latter, participants were required to send their most pressing marketing or business-related questions and the Mansmith consultants will answer them at a forum for free. We found how some questions could be very basic and we were concerned for them that if they were already running businesses and still had such basic questions, then their business were at risk without them even knowing it. So we thought of creating Day 8 which is catered to SME business owners, where the courses are 3 hours short, they can take whatever courses they need without prerequisites and at a token price of only P488 (around $10.19) or even for free if they tell us their business is losing. Day 8 is now on its 6th year.
Q4: Tell us about this latest Mansmith project, the Market Masters Awards for senior marketing people.
A: The Mansmith Market Masters Awards is a recognition of the power of mentorship. As the Mansmith YMMA celebrated its 10th year last year, we realized how our young awardees consistently paid tribute to their bosses who helped mold them into the young achievers they are today. This was not lost on us as we realized the important roles mentors play in the lives of our young marketers—who not only trained or taught their team how to do excellent marketing but also the values of hard work, creativity, commitment, trust, teamwork, and business ethics. Thus was born the MMMA, where the winners can only be nominated by a MansmithYMMA awardee.
Q5: You wrote a "Taglish" (Tagalog-English) bestseller, Small Store Marketing, what got you to do this?
A: There is always an opportunity when you see the invisible lines that connect one event to another. I was invited to speak on sari-sari (variety) store marketing in a Puregold's Aling Puring convention. I thought to myself, "What else can I teach these sari-sari store nanays (mothers) who are already surviving the daily grind of selling in their stores? How do I put together things that make it easy for them to appreciate new knowledge without sounding like I know more and what else can I share with them that they don't know yet that could help grow their businesses?"
I then came up with the seven principles of small store marketing which was well received and I got more inquiries from other companies who wanted me to give the same talk to their own communities.
I then put all these together in one book that is easy to understand and more importantly, doable for any small store owner—whether in bazaars, food stalls, groceries, etc. I have since been giving free talks on this topic to micro business owners in Laguna, San Mateo, Taytay, Antipolo, and Quezon City organized by Ahon sa Hirap Foundation, Kuya Center, and DTI Rizal. Some private manufacturers have also sponsored my talk for their own customers and had distributed my book among their small store clients.
Q6: Many successful people are separated (or annulled/divorced), how should spouses work together to avoid conflict and ensure harmonious relationship?
A: All relationships are works in progress—you don't want to stop growing or stop trying. I think because we take relationships for granted we don't put in as much effort as we do to our jobs or hobbies. When we know we have to take care of something, we must give it attention and we adjust or do things to make things better, while realizing that relationships are always two-way, or give and take.
That said, for spouses working together—a lot of communication will need to be done and in this case, it really helps to listen to each other and to talk things out never out of anger even if the discussion becomes frustrating. Included in this effort to communicate is never to point fingers (walang sisihan) and always knowing how to say sorry and accepting it graciously (remember, walang sisihan!). While work and personal time are difficult to separate in relationships of couples together, boundaries must be set so the relationship takes precedence at all costs.
Most important is the role of prayer and having God in your relationship all the time because really, maintaining a marriage while managing a business could really be challenging if not daunting.
Of course, as I always advise young people, you need to know what you want and to be clear on your choice of a spouse from the very start (instead of trying to change each other along the way). When you know what you want, you will choose a partner who shares responsibilities and power with you (important at work) as well as common joys and vision (important for the family). So choose well from the very start.

Incidence and Impact of Selected Infectious Diseases in Childhood.
Vital and Health Statistics, Series 10 n180 Oct 1991
This report provides estimates of the lifetime and annual incidence of certain infectious diseases of children in various demographic groups. Data on the social and health care impact of the diseases in terms of limited activity, days spent in bed, school days lost, contacts with physicians, hospitalizations, surgery, and use of medication are presented. The data are taken from the 1988 National Health Interview Survey on Child Health. The nine diseases for which statistics are reported are: ear infection, tonsillitis, pneumonia, diarrhea, urinary tract infection, mononucleosis, hepatitis, meningitis, and rheumatic fever. Results indicated that: (1) a total of 38 percent of children had at least one of the diseases; (2) ear illness was the most common illness, affecting 25 percent of children; (3) among infants, 10 percent had ear infection, 3 percent had diarrhea, and 3 percent had pneumonia; (4) tonsillitis was the most common disease among teenagers; (5) most diseases were reported more frequently among White children than among Black or Hispanic children; and (6) girls were 5 times as likely as boys to have urinary tract infections. A reference list of 16 items is provided. Appendixes include a description of the data collection and statistical methods used in the study and definitions of terms used in the report. (BC)

I picked this book because in the sixth grade I had one of the most amazing teacher that I can remember. She spent 9 weeks teaching us the history of the Holocaust. My son is in the sixth grade so I thought I would brush up with the history of that tragedy with this book.
This book is almost over my head. It did not work for what I had intended it for.
But does that mean it's a bad book? Of course not.
Snyder gives a detailed. (Sometimes almost mind numbingly so) recounting of Hitler's maniacal rise and then he makes you stop and think…Could something similar happen now?
Don't shake your head no so fast, buster.
He uses other for instances but it's my little review space and I tend to ramble so I'm using one that I know of recently..
My state Six Flags featured a day for each of several religions. I know that they had "Christian Day" and several other "special days" featured. Then they had "Muslim Day". People flipped their lids. Social media blew up with hate and ramblings and honestly? If I had been Muslim there is no way in heck that I would attend that event that day. Because what was being posted scared me.
Hate festers and spreads.
Then Snyder talks about world climate and how if food sources were in short supply, what would happen? Would people turn against a group of people with the whole survival of the fittest in mind?
Most of the reviews on Goodreads and everywhere else I looked have this book as a highly rated book. And it's good. But, to me the author talks over most people's head on a subject that needs to be talked about and remembered. I just wish that it had been a tad bit more understandable.
