Our very own club matriarch, Arlyn Teed, almost pulled off a GRAND SLAM (no losses)
today and finished the day in FIRST PLACE! Go Arlyn!!
Karen Keil was the only player able to win against Arlyn today!
Karen finished in THIRD PLACE today!! Way to go Karen!
LAST PLACE went to Harley Miedema, and that earned him the WORST SCORE CARD prize!
The CHICKEN found its way into Ray Mielbrecht's hands early on when he scored the first 24-HAND. The CHICKEN roosted there for the remainder for the day, so Ray earned both FIRST and LAST 24-HAND prizes!
Ray played Cindy Grenville for their final game of the day.
Ray beat Cindy and robbed Cindy of the 2 points she needed to meet the 12-point threshold
to earn Grass Roots points. Bummer!
And poor RUTH ADAMS got beat up pretty badly today with not one...but TWO SKUNKS!
Ouch! Better luck next week Ruth!
My thanks to Harley for coming early to set up.
Thanks also to Ray for picking up Arlyn today.
And thanks to Jim for the tasty ginger snaps!
I also want to say WELCOME to Roy Bumgarner. Roy played in his first official Grass Roots tournament today. Roy seems to fit in well with our group! Don't you agree?
I never did get to play Roy today. It seems that I screwed up the rotation royally today,
and it was a real struggle getting everyone matched up properly.
My apologies to the group for that blunder!
I hope to see y'all next week!

Last Tuesday night I attended the media launch of Bombay Sapphire's Project Botanicals. It's a pop bar and restaurant with a difference – you will experience a sensory overload! This is their second year running the two week shared dining event which presents a unique dining experience. They were a completely sold out event last year and are mostly sold out this year with limited tickets available here.
The dinner was hosted at in the Eat My Lunch HQ (you know the buy one lunch, give one lunch to a child in need) as owner and Fine Dining Chef Michael Meredith collaborated with Bombay Sapphire Ambassador Chase Bickerton to create the create ten cocktails paired with ten dishes, each inspired by one of the ten botanicals found inside the famous blue bottle.
The room was beautifully decorated with hanging green walls which divided the dining area from the bar. Large wooden tables catered for the shared dining experience with featured botanical center pieces. The large windows across the only open wall let so much soft light in and across our time there we watched the sun set through them.
I had a great night with friends and making new connections. I caught up with the beautiful Holly Lindsey of @30vs30 before taking my seat next to fellow bloggers Vanessa at The Bubbalino Kitchen and Megan from ThreadNZ.
Each two hour session is $55 and includes two cocktails paired with two dishes. They include two sessions per evening. We were served four courses matched with four cocktails which would be the same as doing two sessions, one after another. We sampled pairings numbered 2, 4,6 and 9.
My favourite was our last course, Pairing No. 6 which was a vegan dessert of Coconut Silken Tofu with Chia Seeds, Coconut Jelly, Fresh Pineapple on a Coconut Caramel. The caramel and the coconut jelly were perfection together! This was paired with Grains of Paradise; GOP infused Bombay Sapphire, Mango Puree, Coconut Cream & Lemon Juice served on the rocks.
A very close second was our first course, Pairing No. 6 which was a delicious appetizer of a Lamb Tagine on Flatbread with Salted Cucumber Labneh & Apricot Puree. This was a delicious start and was paired with my favourite drink of the night, Cast Against Type; Bombay Sapphire, Melon Liqueur, Citric Solution & East Imperial Ginger Ale garnished with cucumber and mint leaves. It was fresh with the mint and cucumber and I'm going to have to teach myself how to make it because it's the perfect summer drink!

The market melt-up took a pause last week, as the S&P 500 fell by 0.36 percent to 2,673.61. Although a disappointing way to end 2017, the benchmark index still managed to close at a new all-time high 62 times last year. Further, the S&P 500 finished 2017 with an outstanding 19.42 percent year-to-date gain, the best annual increase since 2013. As for performance during December, the S&P 500 experienced a few scares (spikes in volatility) but still posted a solid 0.98 percent gain, the 9th monthly rise in a row. Participants in tax-advantaged 401(k) plans fared even better in December, according to new data from the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI). For example, the average 401(k) account balance for younger (25-34), less tenured (1-4 years) workers rose by 2.2 percent last month, while older workers (55-64) with more than 20 years of tenure saw their 401(k) balances rise by an average of 1.1 percent.
Even more impressive is that since the end of 2015, the average 401(k) account balance for younger, less-tenured workers has surged by 119 percent, while the S&P 500 has gained just 30.8 percent (through the end of December 2017). Older, more-tenured workers saw their 401(k) balances rise by an average of "only" 31 percent during this same period, not surprising since these individuals tend to have much larger accounts that are less sensitive to both contribution flows and market fluctuations. More importantly, these substantial gains should provide further evidence of how effective consistent participation in a tax-advantaged savings vehicle can be when trying to amass a significant retirement nest egg. Additional assistance is available through the use of dollar-cost averaging and regularly consulting with a professional financial advisor. As always, we are here to help with any questions you may have.
To recap a few of the things we learned about the economy last (holiday-shortened) week, the positives included that manufacturing activity in the southern region of the country improved, and first-time claims for unemployment benefits held near a multi-decade low. As for the negatives, the nation's trade deficit widened, housing inflation remained elevated, pending home sales rose by less than forecast, and consumer confidence fell. This holiday-shortened week the pace of economic data picks up slightly with several important reports on manufacturing, construction, monetary policy, and employment scheduled to be released, including the potentially market-moving December job report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) due out on Friday.

"This is our land [Coconut City]"
February 15, 2011 § Leave a comment
Nikesh Shukla's Coconut Unlimited invited me in with its very tempting cover of vivid saree-appropriate orange. And not just ordinary saree-orange. Saree-orange speckled with graffiti-ed words and doodles. A cow accompanied by a "no beef" sign hung out next to a cassette tape, and a microphone floated somewhere above it. More important, however, were the blurbs. I would like to consider myself blurb-proof. Apparently, I only am blurb-proof when the blurb reads: "A lyrical portrait of an ordinary American family in the heart of the Midwest rocked to the core by sudden revelations and secrets from the past." Coconut Unlimited's blurbs were penned, though, by hip names – Joe Dunthorne of Submarine and Riz MC, star of Four Lions, for one thing – and embellished with choice words. The choicest of them being the phrase, "the Brit-Asian Rotters' Club", courtesy of Niven Govinden. What to do? I bought the book. I am not blurb-proof. I am not impervious. Altogether, say it to me: Hubris will be thy fall, etc.
The combined effect of colour + cover + blurbs leads the susceptible-to-covers reader (me) to believe she's about to read THE BEST NOVEL EVAH. So it's hardly surprising that Coconut Unlimited did not quite live up to the hype. It had its journey very well-mapped out, and it followed closely to the prescribed path. This was meant to be a warm, comedic, light-hearted yarn about three Indian boys in a posh public school in Harrow banding together to form a rap group as a buffer against the virulent British-strain of public school classism and racism. And so it was a warm, comedic, light-hearted yarn. Yet, interwoven threads of cultural differences and immigrant blues underpinned the yarniness, and it felt like the narrative would have sometimes liked to go down a different a path – a little less slap-your-knee funny, a little more turbulent and chaotic – but it seemed to have been firmly yanked back into warm, comedic, light-hearted yarn territory. Still, it must be acknowledged the flood of acclaim that came out for Coconut Unlimited book probably points towards the need among readers for adolescent school stories featuring less-than-lily white characters, for stories situated outside of the sphere of the white British experience trotted out as being representative or typical.
As far as male friendships go, Coconut Unlimited is a fine tribute to the ties that bind. Amit, the protagonist who presents this tale to us in a narrated flashback, and his two buddies Anand and Nishant, are ready-made outcasts in their posh collegiate environment because of their race and skin colour. The three are intermittently geeky and surprisingly smooth, and the dialogue between the three form some of the best parts of the book. Amit is witty and adept at summing up his social condition in a few well-chosen words:
At private school, the only thing to rebel against was wealth, which made all the white kids turn to angsty guitar music about upset stomachs and parental resentment. We three had no wealth to rebel against. We were the victims of our parents' desire to ensure we had a good education, meaning all their money was spent on private school. No holidays, no proper nights out, no musical instruments, no frivolity – only austere learning. We rebelled against the stigma of being the three Asians.[i]
Being brown and not black isn't enough to withstand white contempt, or at the very least it only invites a different kind of contempt that is rooted in unflattering comparisons to curry – and so Amit and his crew decide to go black via rap music and "street" culture. Problem is, neither one of them can rap – and neither one of them has experienced "life on the street". But where adolescent energy finds its destiny, nothing can stand in its way, and so Amit, Anand, and Nishant are on their way to being Coconut Unlimited by careful and disciplined appropriation of black culture and rap music as gleaned from TV and music magazines.
Coconut Unlimited is set in the 1990s, so for these cash-deprived Indian boys of Harrow, cassette tapes are the medium by which music is discovered and consumed. Hey! Much like it was for cash-deprived Indian girls of Malaysia. Amit and his friends trade mix tapes and record songs off of bought albums and spend hours listening to beats and memorising lyrics. The mix tape is the site in which the self is continuously being remade. This isn't surprising as music-obsessed adolescents of the 80s and mid-90s attempted to build, demolish, and reconstruct new identities in tandem with their shifting interests and obsessions with newly-discovered music, and the cassette facilitated easy acquisition and dispersal of music to suit rapidly-changing needs. Press play, hit record, or rewind – it's there one minute or deleted and recorded over the next. The Coconut Unlimited trio also record their self-made music using cassette tapes, figuring out creative ways to layer rapping over vocals and beats in an awkward and adorable attempt at bricolage. But what's interesting is that Amit's father does the same, using his cassettes as a way of maintaining ties to a place – in this case, India – by copying Bollywood albums brought over by friends, and then circulating and trading these tapes amongst his friends. In Amit's father's case, the mix tape is a means by which he rediscovers what probably constitutes the lost self of a first-generation immigrant to Britain.
Amit's always-present anger and confusion is often sublimated into crafting rhymes that sound good in his head but also tend to stay in his head – Amit is a failed rapper before he can even begin – which is interesting, of course, and funny. But this aspect of Amit's character also feels overly-prescribed, as if Shukla's attempt to rewrite the comic English novel to the key of brown prevents him from exploring (or wanting to) the boundaries between laughter and shame, or laughter and pain. After all, the immigrant experience of being the outsider constantly reminded of one's "otherness" is not always summed up with a catchy rhyme or deviated with a few laughs. When I think about what is one of the most successful depictions of both vivid pathos and humour as it plays out in the daily lived experience of the immigrant, I think of The Lonely Londoners by Sam Selvon. The Lonely Londoners tells the story of the working-class, however, and Coconut Unlimited tells the story of young men who aren't poor but who are trapped within limited economic circumstances that seriously circumscribe their ability to be "pretty cool".
Perhaps there is never really any true pathos in the experience of the marginalised-yet-pampered second-generation Indian immigrant, only sublimated anger and resentment. Pitching the narrative at one particular emotional note throughout the book doesn't seem to have done justice to Coconut Unlimited's scope and imagination. Sometimes the racist bullshit that the boys endure are not so much of a laugh, haha. The familial tensions that arise out inter-generational conflicts are tiny stabs to the heart, and not so much of a laugh, haha. That's not to say that Shukla shouldn't have set out to write a comic novel undercut by humiliation and marginalization (two situations ripe for humour), but the comedy faltered at points. From a reader's perspective, it felt like the comedy faltered at precise points where comedy needed to sit back and allow a little pathos to seep in through the gaps. But those emotions aren't given permission to expand to fit those gaps, and what remains are absences in the text that don't so much as engage curiosity as shut it down.
This is partly a problem with Amit, who drops tiny bombs throughout the narrative about his displeasure for Asian and Indian girls. He meets the daughter of his parents' friends, a girl whom he considers sexy, only to remind us that he only considered her "sexy for an Asian girl." Amit spends a lot of his time wanting to distance himself from his white male counterparts – and white male culture in general – while generally only desiring white females and holding Indian/Asian girls in contempt. Amit's dislike and contempt for Indian and Asian girls is constant – he derides his sister's Indian friends as stupid and giggly, and derides the Indian girls at a Gujarati cultural event he attends as stupid and giggly, and objects to Anand's first girlfriend on grounds of simple jealousy, but also because she's Indian. This is interesting, and one wonders if it's an expected immigrant malaise to sexually reject the people who are most like you and desire those most unlike you as you grow up in a culture that valorises the people most unlike you. The Lacanian construct of "desire is the desire for the other" seems to bear out most convincingly in immigrant or post-colonial communities. No surprise then that the teenage Amit reveres white girls more than others – except that the grown-up Amit, who narrates this story and comes back to join in the final chapter, has fulfilled teenaged Amit's dream by marrying a white woman. One can't help but wonder about the buried subtext of this after an adolescence spent imagining Indian/Asian women to be somehow deficient – capable only of provoking Amit's disgust and scorn.
Amit's pretty astute in realising that he's mocked for appropriating black street culture while living in the comfortable suburbs of Harrow, and is aware enough to feel embarrassed when his mom says unthinking sort-of racist things about black people and black culture. At the same time, it's a fairly common adolescent rite-of-passage to rebel, strongly and loudly OR subtly and wimpily, against one's parents and by extension, one's culture – since most parents tend to fill the role of cultural gatekeepers – and also to rebel against all that undercuts your sense of self and rubs your face in daily misery. In Amit's case, the latter is realised by his posh white classmate and the entire racialised structure of his private school experience. But Amit also performs some of his own (unconscious, perhaps) cultural gatekeeping when he evaluates his Indian peers, mocking them for their fondness for vacuous R'n'B music and appropriation of bling-bling culture:
The boys: gelled spiky hair in a variety of angles and shaved sides, jumpers with logos emblazoned near their nipples, Moschino or Ralph Lauren or Armani – s' all bout da laaaaabels blud – jeans with insignias all over them, gleaming white trainers, gold rings on every finger displaying religious iconography.
The girls: grey or green contact lenses, foundation like pate, catty eye make-up and the rest all in black, their long small fingernails painted golden, their hair straight and middle-parted, small, all under five-foot – all so generic, so exactly the same that there was nothing even remotely attractive about them.
Sure, people might argue that Amit is young – it's practically a requirement for him to be an ass.[ii] But young or no, one hopes to excavate other character traits that would make him interesting to be with for the duration of the narrative, if not exactly a pleasure to be with. Shukla gives us an Amit with a sparse history and with very few engagements in life beyond this sudden manic obsession with rap music as a means of attaining cool factor and redeeming his social standing. Amit seems intangible, almost a figment of authorial nostalgia and memory, while the people around him – Anand, Nishant, his parents, even Pentil the racist bully in his school – are sketched out in strong, sharp strokes, imbuing them with a stronger presence on the page than Amit ever achieves.
Shukla's prose, however, provides the rhythm that propels the book's narrative forward in a fairly entertaining way; the dialogue peppered with the steady and catchy beat of street slang (or at the very least, mimics the attempts of straightlaced good boys trying to speak in slang). There are some hilarious inclusions of Amit's (misfired) attempts at crafting rhyme for their rap songs, and as expected for a comic novel well-versed and respectful of its tradition, rapid-fire wit and humour are in abundance. Amit's mother's constant irritation with her son's speech style, "What do you mean 'what's up?' Why must something always be up?" got a smile out of me each time. The general tenor of her dialogue is affectionately and tenderly executed; she isn't framed as being silly or nasty (as some Indian moms appear to be when seen from the perspective of their beloved sons… or yes, daughters), just stolidly and comfortingly present.
So is Coconut Unlimited the Brit-Asian The Rotters' Club? I remember the latter creating a world of juvenile angst, confusion, lust, desire, and the manic teenage enthusiasm for 70s British punk. It was absorbing; I read it very quickly and without many breaks while I listened to XTC in the background, and came out of it fully-convinced I was a young English male on the cusp of an exciting future. Coconut Unlimited peeled off only very outer layer of its characters' complicated lives, and as a result I only wanted to give it my very superficial attention. It's like expecting a lunch of rice and sambar made from scratch, only to be given sambar-from-a-box. You eat it… but there's some crucial element missing. There's very little room in Coconut Unlimited for the characters to feel genuinely bad for more than two seconds, and because of that the book is somewhat inadequate. From other reviews I've read, I seem to be in the tiny minority. But I can't say I don't look forward to see what Shukla will come up with now that he's exorcised the ghost of his adolescent past with this book.
[i] Note that Amit is British yet refers to his public school as a private school, although I do believe that a public school in Britain is the term used for private school, but perhaps public schoolers in Britain refer to their public schools as private schools in private. I do not know. The alternative explanation is that this was a concession made in the text so as not to confuse non-English readers, who are more likely the easily-confused Americans. Ha! Just kidding. No, not really.
[ii] This definitely leads one to wonder if that's the reason why there's been a recent wave of books by adult men for adult audiences – Proper Books, mind you, without brain injury involved – featuring adolescent males as main characters filtering the world through an adolescent male experience.

Traditionally, real estate agents caution vendors against marketing their property for auction on a day where some type of major event is scheduled. Whether it's a public holiday, footy finals or as we had this Saturday, a Federal election, the number of auctions conducted drops significantly when buyers are distracted by other goings on.
It's not surprising therefore, that the number of properties up for auction this weekend was around half that of the weekend before according to the Home Price Guide's auction results.
In Sydney, 81 out of 112 properties sold on Saturday, producing a clearance rate of 66%, which reflects the fairly consistent results we have seen out of the Harbour city for the past month or two.
Melbourne's clearance rate was slightly up from the previous week at 69%, after 75 out of 106 properties sold, while Adelaide had an unremarkable 30% result with only 10 properties auctioned and just 3 selling.
As has been the case on numerous occasions recently, Brisbane again fared the worse with just 6 out of 22 properties selling to give a clearance rate of 26%.
In a commentary on Domain, Australian Property Monitors general manager Anthony Ishac said the drop in auctions this weekend, "is almost identical to what happened during the November 2007 federal election."
He says house price growth is likely to continue to soften somewhat until the end of August as it has right throughout winter, due to nearly six consecutive interest rates rises.
As a result Ishac says, "Both elections will have been held during tightening phases of monetary policy, with the RBA wary of inflation.
The difference this time around is the Gillard government has avoided an unpleasant rate rise, which the Howard government had to deal with."
Ishac notes that despite the hype regarding affordability issues, dwindling housing supply, record house price growth and the general propaganda surrounding our property and finance markets this year, neither party really put anything on the table with regard to the future of property in Australia.
"It looks like another three years under the weight of the same issues," he says.

I was listening to the radio about the disengagement. They interviewed a very ordinary, nice-sounding Arabic gentleman who lived next door to one of the settlements. Then they gave us a bit of a prayer from a rabbi giving a service in a Jewish graveyard. It was impossible not to notice that while the Arabic gentleman had lived next door to Jews for twentysomething years when they were in charge, Jews are not going to be allowed to stay in the area when Arabs are in charge. The Palestinians have demanded their removal. So if they want to visit the graves of their dead relatives ever again, they are going to have to dig them up and rebury them elsewhere in Israel. Which is obscene.
Palestine will be Judenrein. According to Wikipedia, about 20% of the population of Israel is Arab. To me, the issue is not so much who owns the land as whether they use it to run a racist, fascist state. If there is competition there, I can't see where it is.
I have been thinking about the disengagement for months of course, although I choose rarely to write about politics on this blog at the moment. Nobody has to agree with my opinion, in fact I would rather they decided it was rubbish and felt comfortably superior than tried to get me into an argument, because I do not have the energy or the inclination. Whether they realise it or not, many many people are irrational, extremist, ignorant and bigoted on this issue, just as about everything to do with Israel. But for what it is worth, which I cannot put too low a price on frankly, my view is that Israel should be keeping the land rather than handing it over to the kind of people they are handing it over to.
It would be nice if the disengagement led to peace, absolutely lovely, but where is the reason to expect that? The only possible good I can see coming out of it is if Jews get better at talking to each other. I recommend David Bogner's devastating post on this subject.
Hard lessons may be good for us. They may even be the only way we ever learn what we need to learn. But that fact in no way justifies evil actions. As human beings, we have the choice of vowing to extract every drop of new truth and knowledge from every difficult situation that is forced upon us, and to use it to become better people, capable of doing more good, perhaps even doing enough good that such evil things never need happen again. We may even find it in our hearts to forgive those who commit evil against us- if such perpetrators exist, which is not always the case. The people I most admire are the ones who act like that. The people I have to work hardest not to loathe are the ones who just (apparently) blame everyone else instead.
But evil will always be evil, and good will always be good, and no amount of rationalising, justifying, trickery or self-deception will ever alter which is which. I have no idea who to blame about the disengagement, but I will never believe that it was, in itself, a good thing. The most I can do is believe that good can come out of evil. If we work at it.

I spent the last several days deeply under the weather with a very unpleasant head cold (are any of them pleasant?).
I missed two days of work and really have not been fully functional this weekend though Missus and I did celebrate her birthday on Saturday with dinner at a very nice Japanese restaurant with good friends. A very good time had by all.
I am feeling almost human. Work calls tomorrow and life will pick up speed again….
I needn't tell you that I didn't ride at all or walk much or do much of anything since Wednesday and I am feeling like a tree sloth right now, fat and slow.
The weight held steady, actually dropped slightly, so I am ok there. I flexed my eating (yeah, sure, a lack of appetite due to the cold had nothing to do with it) and avoided the bedridden weight gain.
Today it was a cold and dreary and wet day so there was no riding to be done even had there been no head cold to contend with. Somehow the fact that the weather would have kept me from riding in any case made me feel better about not being in any shape to ride…
By mid-week I suspect I will be in fine shape.
The coming week and weekend
The weather this week will be a challenge. It is expected to be warm but with a possibility of thunderstorms… Then of course there is the holiday weekend.
Travel to and from a big cookout out-of-state will make riding a challenge.
I will find a way….
How much one changes in a year…
At the cookout last year I was in the 235 pound range, 70 or so pounds down from my starting weight and people were STUNNED at my weight loss. I am 30 pounds lighter now and I have maintained the goal weight since last August.
I am simply not who I was a year ago. Not even close to the person I was two years ago.
I get less visits from the Black Dog, less episodes of depression. I am less anxious about my weight and less nervous about allowing the occasional indulgence.
Some things have not changed or have changed only in the depth of my commitment. I am still not eating red meats and I have started to phase out other meats, poultry and fish, as well. My commitment to fitness is deeper now. It was strong a year ago. It is a passion now.
I am always planning my next walk, my next hike, my next ride.
I am as passionate about my health as I was a year ago. I still talk about it incessantly. I am still writing this blog and still thinking out my days as they will relate to food and exercise.
What has changed? I am now much more accustomed to living the way I live now. It is now less forced. I am planning and thinking from habit now not from conscious effort. I run a tab in my head of everything I eat. I know the calories by heart now. I still record them in the LOSEIT.COM app, still record even one jelly bean. No though I do it from habit. It is natural for me to do this. I don't have to remind myself, force myself, over think it.
A year ago I was constantly reminding myself to records it, plan it, think it, do it.
Now I just do it.
In situations like the upcoming cookout I will remind myself to not snack and nibble and I will remind myself to walk around a great deal to get in the steps. I will probably go up and down the flight and a half of steps on the deck 30 times or more in the course of the day. I will remind myself to make sure that happens.
It is in the day-to-day that I am beginning to grow comfortable, beginning to feel that this lifestyle has become my life. I am learning to be the person I have become. Sounds like the cart in front of the horse but, for me, it works just that way.

When a letter does not have any verticals like a capital A or V, the very first diagonal stroke is regarded as the stem.

Even something as easy as guessing the beginning letter of long words can assist your child improve his phonics abilities. Winter Math Puzzle Worksheet.
There isn't anything like a superb story, and nothing like being the person who started a renowned urban legend. Deciding upon the ideal approach route Cursive writing is basically joined-up handwriting. Practice reading by yourself as often as possible.
Research urban legends to obtain a concept of what's out there prior to making a new one. You are still not sure the radicals have the proper idea. Naturally, you won't use the majority of your ideas. If you've got an idea for a tool please inform us. That means you can begin right where you are no matter how little you might feel you've got to give. You are also quite suspicious of any revolutionary shift.

Winter Math Puzzle Worksheet. Try to remember, you always have to care for your child with amazing care, compassion and affection to be able to help him learn. You may also ask your kid's teacher for extra worksheets. Your son or daughter is not going to just learn a different sort of font but in addition learn how to write elegantly because cursive writing is quite beautiful to check out. As a result, if a kid is already suffering from ADHD his handwriting will definitely be affected. Accordingly, to be able to accomplish this, if children are taught to form different shapes in a suitable fashion, it is going to enable them to compose the letters in a really smooth and easy method. Although it can be cute every time a youngster says he runned on the playground, students want to understand how to use past tense so as to speak and write correctly. Let say, you would like to boost your son's or daughter's handwriting, it is but obvious that you want to give your son or daughter plenty of practice, as they say, practice makes perfect.
Without phonics skills, it's almost impossible, especially for kids, to learn how to read new words. Techniques to Handle Attention Issues It is extremely essential that should you discover your kid is inattentive to his learning especially when it has to do with reading and writing issues you must begin working on various ways and to improve it. Use a student's name in every sentence so there's a single sentence for each kid. Because he or she learns at his own rate, there is some variability in the age when a child is ready to learn to read. Teaching your kid to form the alphabets is quite a complicated practice.

This recipe is something I created in college and it has truly become a family/friend favorite. My friend always made these awesome chicken enchiladas and I really wanted to try to recreate them. The only problem for me is keeping the tortillas from splitting. I got flustered one night and ended up sort of throwing "Lazy Enchiladas" together by tearing the tortillas and layering them. Little did I know that this would turn out to be pretty darn good. This recipe is even better the next day, can be made ahead of time and can be frozen too. I have used all meats (beef, chicken, veggie crumbles) and they all taste great. I also created a version of this with White Sauce, but, that is another recipe for another time.
Lazy Chicken Enchiladas with Red Sauce
28 oz Old El Paso Mild Enchilada Sauce (the large can – any brand)
1 small onion(s), diced (optional)
1-2 lbs cooked chicken
12-15 corn tortillas
1 small can sliced olives
8 oz Kraft 2% Milk Natural Cheese Mexican four cheese shreds
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
Spray a nonstick pan with cooking spray and saute chopped onion until soft and slight browned. Add to a large bowl.
You can boil 4-6 chicken breasts for 20-25 minutes, use left over chicken or buy a rotisserie chicken. You need about 2 cups or 1 lb. Shred chicken breast and add to onion bowl. Add enough enchilada sauce to coat. Sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper if desired.
Slice tortillas into 1/4 slices. Slice olives or buy pre-sliced olives.
In a 9x13 pan, start w/ spreading 1/2 c sauce and top with tortillas. Add 1/2 the chicken mixture and 1/2 c cheese. Top with a few olive slices. Add another layer of tortillas, 1/2 c sauce, the rest of the chicken mixture, 1/2 c of cheese and a few olive slices. Add final layer of tortillas, top with the rest of the sauce, cheese and olives.
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly.
Enjoy with ff greek yogurt or sour cream, salsa and guacamole if desired.
**Make it Vegetarian by using veggie crumbles
*** Make it Vegan by using your favorite beans (black beans) and soy cheese.

I served mine up tonight with a little FF greek yogurt, green onions and slice avocado (mmmm, avocado!) on the side.
For our veggies, we took the leftover Cucumber Salad from last night and topped some freshly chopped romaine. We also added some avocado to this too!
This was so tasty and comforting. However, I was wanting something sweet for dessert. So, I had one of the leftover Chocolate Covered Peanut butter eggs and took some leftover frosting and topped a lowfat cinnamon graham cracker (so good!). Did you all ever have this as kids? I STILL love it!
Last chance to VOTE for your favorite baked sale item as the Poll closes tomorrow! Have a super night and get ready for Part 2 of the Annie's Giveaway!

There is one bright shining area where women start more businesses than men: women who are single start more businesses than their male counterparts. Five years ago, author and entrepreneur Erin Albert started to ask why this was the case with her first book, Single. Women. Entrepreneurs. Now, in her newly published book Single. Women. Entrepreneurs: 5 Years Later, she checks back in during a critical time for women in the US, during the #MeToo movement and a call for gender equality, more women leaders, and overall support of women.
This is a book to help readers not only learn what happened to each of the Single Women Entrepreneurs featured in the first book, but to track their progress over the past five years and learn from the successes and failures of these brave women. Erin talks to each of them to learn what ultimately happened to each of those businesses. Did they grow or did they close their doors? Did those women entrepreneurs decide to move into a completely new direction with their businesses and their lives, or did they keep plugging away with the work she found them doing 5 years ago? It makes for fascinating reading. Most of all, this book provides a unique understanding of why supporting such women entrepreneurs in their businesses is critical due to the tough challenges they uniquely face. If you're a woman thinking of starting a business (single or not) read on as well to unearth the challenges and the rewards.
Author quotes
The hard thing about being an entrepreneur is that it's all up to you. You make all the decisions, You do all the hard thinking and often, all the labour to bring a company to life
Even if you are successful, the haters exponentially multiply and can't wait to see you tumble… and failure is inevitable when you are a business owner.
There's really no playbook on starting and running a business. While there are templates and thousands of books on writing business plans, every business is different, in different markets, and fraught with different challenges.
In addition to being one of the hardest things I've ever accomplished, starting a business (or in my case two) has also been two of the best things I've ever done.
About the author
Dr. Erin Albert is an award-winning entrepreneur, writer, health outcomes pharmacist, attorney, coach, podcaster, speaker, and STEM advocate. She is also the founder of two companies, Pharm LLC, and Yuspie LLC. Erin has penned over a dozen books on a range of topics, including entrepreneurship, career development, pharmacy law, pharmacy practice, and STEM for girls. In addition, she also podcasts for the Pharmacy Podcast Network under the channel Pharming Your Career which has over 67,000 subscribers, about healthcare career development, entrepreneurship and women's issues.
Why LoA loves it….
Do you often read about women entrepreneurs and their business journeys and then wonder what happened to them, if they made it, if their businesses survived or perhaps had to pivot along the way, or if they just plain failed due to all the pressures? In Erin Albert's new book, Single Women Entrepreneurs: 5 Years Later, she revisits all the women entrepreneurs she interviewed for her first book in this series, and finds out just what happened to each of them, and where they are in their lives and businesses today. It makes for fascinating and insightful reading, and all the very personal stories featured will undoubtedly resonate with every woman entrepreneur reading them. --- Melanie Hawken, founder and ceo of Lionesses of Africa

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. Ash and I just got back from visiting the entire family (that hasn't happened in years!). Our Christmas was everything it should be – bright, merry and white. Full of hot cocoa, turkey, and christmas cookies! It was Jaxs' first Christmas and Dee's second. Dee is at the perfect age where everything is exciting and fun (even if only for a couple of minutes). Here are some snap shots from the week.
We started off with some Christmas-treeing and lots of snow! I LOVE white Christmases and the White Mountains certainly delivered this year.
Dee topped the tree with the angel and Jax sat around and looked cute :)
And then we headed off to Santa's Workshop on Christmas eve where we ate cookies and made toys and took LOTS of family photos.
And of course we opened presents on Christmas morning! The favorites were the bears and the Twilight Turtles.
Hope your Christmases were just as "merry & bright"!

CyRide Making Route Modifications Based on Customer Feedback
CyRide, the Ames community-wide transit system, completed a major service overhaul in 2018 after receiving extensive user input. CyRide 2.0 was implemented in phases throughout last year. After gathering customer feedback about the revised system, CyRide has planned additional modifications to make the public transit system more beneficial for customers.
"As with any major change, there are opportunities to improve once additional information is gained about how users respond to the change and desire to use services, said CyRide Director Sheri Kyras. "As a result of gaining great feedback from our customers last summer and fall, CyRide is pleased to offer more services this year to the community to make riding transit more convenient in Ames."
The specific changes and implementation dates are below.
May 13, 2019
#9 Plum Route – This route will deviate to the ISU Veterinary Medicine facility, inbound to campus only, to provide a higher level of service to this ISU building year round; buses will run every 20 minutes when the university is in session.
#14 Peach Route – This route will travel between North Grand Mall and ISU campus only. The southern portion of the current route will be eliminated; buses will run every 30 minutes year-round on this shortened route. Veterinary Medicine customers will use the #9 Plum route.
#25 Gold Route – Service will be added between Schilletter Village and campus only during summer and ISU break periods; buses will run every 40 minutes.
August 2019

#11 Cherry – Beginning August 26, weekday evening service on this route will be extended two hours from approximately 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.; buses will run every 35 minutes. This service will also operate a limited schedule the week before ISU begins its fall semester. (See CyRide's website, www.CyRide.com for more detailed information.)
#12 Lilac Route – Beginning August 26, weekday service will be added to provide a bus between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.; the bus will run every 40 minutes.
#25 Gold Route – Beginning August 26, several changes will occur on this route. Weekday, daytime service will operate every 12 minutes instead of every 10 minutes; evening service will be extended to operate every 40 minutes between 10:30 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. The daytime service will operate a limited schedule the week before ISU begins its fall semester. (See CyRide's website, www.CyRide.com for more detailed information.) The extended evening hours will begin on August 26.
Early Morning Trips – CyRide will add an earlier morning trip on several routes to make service more convenient in the mornings. (See CyRide's website, www.CyRide.com in July 2019 for a list of specific routes and times.)

This is so quick and easy you will be amazed- using single cream in place of a classic béchamel sounds a bit naughty and extravagant but it actually makes the whole dish much lighter and a whole lot quicker! I have used blitzed down cauliflower, along with breadcrumbs, for the topping because firstly its a fantastic way to sneak in some veggies and also because everyone knows cheese and cauliflower are delicious!
Serves 2 adults and 1-2 small children
150g macaroni
for the sauce:
1 garlic clove, crushed
285ml single cream
20g cheddar cheese, grated
20g Parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated
1 sprig thyme
1 tsp Dijon mustard
125g mozzarella cheese
for the topping:
20g Parmesan (or vegetarian alternative), grated
20g panko breadcrumbs
150g cauliflower, cut into bitesize florets
Preheat the oven to 200oC. In a medium saucepan cook the macaroni for 5 minutes and then drain and place in a medium ovenproof dish. Meanwhile, for the sauce, place the ingredients in a blender and blitz down until smooth. Pour over the pasta and set aside
For the topping: put the parmesan, breadcrumbs and cauliflower in a food processor and blitz down until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Scatter evenly over the pasta and sauce and then place in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden and bubbling. Serve immediately.
just for adults: add 1/4 tsp salt to both the sauce and topping

HALIFAX — New photos released by the Transportation Safety Board show damage to the passenger cabin of an Air Canada plane that crashed at Halifax's airport during a heavy snowfall earlier this year.
The photos are part of an update issued by the safety agency Tuesday that also provides details on the weather and flying conditions when Air Canada flight 624 hit the ground short of the runway on March 29.
One of the images released shows punctures to the aircraft cabin floor, with a metal object jutting up between seat rows near the back of the plane.
The report says that during the approach the engines of the aircraft severed power transmission lines, and then the main landing gear and rear fuselage impacted the snow-covered ground about 225 metres before the runway threshold.
The aircraft smashed through an antenna array, then hit the ground about 70 metres before the runway, before sliding and bouncing for more than 600 metres before coming to a rest at the side of the runway.
All 133 passengers and five crew on board survived, although 25 people sustained injuries and were sent to hospital.
The report says a weather report told the crew that winds were blowing at 37 km/h with gusts as high as 48 km/h, with a visibility in front of the aircraft of 800 metres and below of just 100 metres due to blowing snow.
It also says a preliminary study of the flight data recorder indicates the plane had a normal approach speed, was correctly configured for landing and there were no mechanical problems.
A news release from the safety agency said during the next phase of the investigation the agency will evaluate pilot training and performance during the crash.
No date has been given on when the final report will be completed.

Описание: Distance education has been regarded as a Western teaching model that emphasizes individual development, learner's autonomy, active learning, and mutual communications. When Chinese students, who are accustomed to a teacher-led, passive, and reticent way of learning, take online courses in the West, they are likely to encounter a series of disorientations and even difficulties. This doctoral study explores the role of cultural values in shaping Chinese students' online learning experiences in American universities. Through a qualitative research design, 11 Chinese graduate students from 6 public universities in the Southeastern United States were selected and interviewed about their online learning experiences. The data analysis revealed that Chinese cultural values had a significant impact on their online learning experience and behaviors, and there was a process of cultural negotiation and construction. This book is informative for those teaching online courses to Chinese students,...

IN MAKING THE LIST, his 2001 book about best sellers, former Simon & Schuster editor in chief Michael Korda recalls that the publishing house once commissioned a study of which books made the most money. After a detailed presentation, the consultant said to the editors, "Do you guys realize how much money the company would make if you only published best sellers?" He might as well have told them that they'd do better playing the lottery if they picked the right numbers. Trends come and go, but the best seller remains essentially serendipitous. An editor can be no more certain of finding the next one than a writer can be assured of writing it. "As a rule of thumb," writes John Sutherland, an English scholar who has studied the phenomenon, "what defines the bestseller is bestselling. Nothing else."

What 🏡 Can You Buy For $1500/month?
Math is math, however when it's computed for money it feels weird. We get asked the question all the time "What would my payment be if I bought a $200,000 house?".
***DISCLAIMER - We are not lending professionals, nor do we pretend to be. For the purposes of this blog post, we used very generic numbers (that can be found below). Every person is different and so is their financial ability and criteria. If you want real numbers let us know and we will get you to some who can help. Now back to the post.***
So lets take the "what would my payment be?" question and flip it on its head. What if you felt comfortable spending $1,500 on housing, not utilities? If so we estimate the average American can afford a home of around $230,000.
What can you get for $1500/month?
***We used the following criteria. In Richland County a $230,000 is estimated to have a tax bill of $2,030 a year, $100 a month in insurance, no HOA fee, a 30 year amortization, 5% interest rate, and no down payment.
Pro Tip: If you're thinking about buying a home, it's important to begin planning financially before you start seeing every house that pops up on Zillow. By "planning financially" I mean getting with a mortgage lender to figure out how much you want to pay monthly, know your down payment options, and see where you line up among the criteria of certain financing types (i.e., do you meet the minimum credit score, debt-to-income ratio limits).

Funding for Teen Courts in West Virginia a reality!!!
During the 2005 Legislative Session, the Mercer County COFY Coalition assisted our state legislators with a proposal that would add a fee of up to $5 on all traffic violations within counties with Teen Courts. WVHB2492 passed and became law on July 1, 2005.
It was amended in 2006 to include all felonies, misdemeanors and local ordinances.
In 2010 the code was amended once again to allow municipalities to operate teen courts with charges filed in municipal courts.
The new legislation following the 2010 Session states...
§49-5-13d. Teen court program.
(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this article to the contrary, in any county or municipality that chooses to institute a teen court program in accordance with the provisions of this section, any juvenile who is alleged to have committed a status offense or an act of delinquency which would be a misdemeanor if committed by an adult or in the case of a violation of a municipal ordinance, an offense over which municipal courts have concurrent jurisdiction, and who is otherwise subject to the provisions of this article may be given the option of proceeding in the teen court program as an alternative to the filing of a formal petition under section seven of this article or proceeding to a disposition as provided by section eleven-a or thirteen of this article, as the case may be. The decision to extend the option to enter the teen court program as an alternative procedure shall be made by the circuit or municipal court if the court finds that the offender is a suitable candidate for the program. No juvenile may enter the teen court program unless he or she and his or her parent or guardian consent. Any juvenile who does not successfully cooperate in and complete the teen court program and any disposition imposed therein shall be returned to the circuit court for further disposition as provided by section eleven-a or thirteen of this article, as the case may be or return to a municipal court for further disposition for cases originating in circuit court consistent with any applicable ordinance.
(b) The following provisions apply to all teen court programs:
(1) The judge for each teen court proceeding shall be an acting or retired circuit court judge or an active member of the West Virginia State Bar, who serves on a voluntary basis.
(2) Any juvenile who selects the teen court program as an alternative disposition shall agree to serve thereafter on at least two occasions as a teen court juror.
(3) Volunteer students from grades seven through twelve of the schools within the county shall be selected to serve as defense attorney, prosecuting attorney, court clerk, bailiff and jurors for each proceeding.
(4) Disposition in a teen court proceeding shall consist of requiring the juvenile to perform sixteen to forty hours of community service, the duration and type of which shall be determined by the teen court jury from a standard list of available community service programs provided by the county juvenile probation system and a standard list of alternative consequences that are consistent with the purposes of this article. The performance of the juvenile shall be monitored by the county juvenile probation system for cases originating in the circuit court's jurisdiction, or municipal teen court coordinator or other designee for cases originating in the municipal court's jurisdiction. The juvenile shall also perform at least two sessions of teen court jury service and, if considered appropriate by the circuit court judge or teen court judge, participate in an education program. Nothing in this section may be construed so as to deny availability of the services provided under section eleven-a of this article to juveniles who are otherwise eligible for such service.
(c) The rules for administration, procedure and admission of evidence shall be determined by the chief circuit judge or teen court judge, but in no case may the court require a juvenile to admit the allegation against him or her as a prerequisite to participation in the teen court program. A copy of these rules shall be provided to every teen court participant.
(d) Each county or municipality that operates, or wishes to operate, a teen court program as provided in this section is hereby authorized to adopt a mandatory fee of up to five dollars to be assessed as provided in this subsection. Municipal courts may assess a fee pursuant to the provisions of this section upon authorization by the city council of the municipality. Assessments collected by the clerk of the court pursuant to this subsection shall be deposited into an account specifically for the operation and administration of a teen court program. The clerk of the court of conviction shall collect the fees established in this subsection and shall remit the fees to the teen court program.
Any mandatory fee established by a county commission or city council in accordance with the provisions of this subsection shall be paid by the defendant on a judgment of guilty or a plea of nolo contendere for each violation committed in the county or municipality of any felony, misdemeanor or any local ordinance, including traffic violations and moving violations but excluding municipal parking ordinances. Municipalities operating teen courts are authorized to use fees assessed in municipal court pursuant to this subsection for operation of a teen court in their municipality.

.hack//G.U. PS4/PC Remaster .hack//G.U. Last Recode Gets First Screenshots and Tons of Info on Famitsu
.hack//G.U. Returns to PS4 and PC with an HD Remaster Titled .hack//G.U. Last Recode. Here is what it looks like.
Following yesterday's tease, the Japanese magazine Weekly Famitsu had a spread announcing .hack//G.U. Last Recode, a remaster of the original PS2 JRPG .hack//G.U. that will be released at a still unknown date for PS4 and PC.
First of all, we learn that the remaster will include all three volumes, Rebirth, Reminisce and Redemption. On top of that, resolution has been remastered to 1080p (supporting output to 4K) running at 60 FPS. Backgrounds, characters, shadows and more have been remastered and the difference can be seen at a glance. Cutscenes have also been converted to high resolution (excluding some modes), and the UI has been redesigned in high definition as well.
Below you can check out a couple of comparisons with the PS2 version:
Funnily, a "cheat mode" will be introduced for those who want to just enjoy the scenario. It lets you start each volume with levels and equipment maxed. In the PS2 version, every time you died you were sent back to the title screen. In the remaster, you'll be able to opt to retry.
The improvements that were made to the third volume will also be applied to the first two in order to give a more unified experience. All the videos from the Terminal Disc that used to come with Volume 1 will also be included. In one of the screenshots you can also see a new look for Haseo.
Below you can read a full list of improvements:
- Movement speed increased.
- Increased inventory slots from 30 to 90.
- Increased the maximum number for each item in inventory.
- Added item sort and shortcut features to the menu.
- Added a feature allowing the continuous use of the same item.
- Adjusted the UI to improve readability of empty equipment slots.
- The shop menu will show how many items of each type are already in inventory.
- Increased the limit of Chim Spheres and Virus Cores in inventory to 999.
- A new recovery method added to the Platform break, available from the beginning.
- Reduced the possibility that companions will sell items given by the player without permission.
- You can seleect Saku and Bo for the party.
- Applied improvements to Volume 3 to Volume 1 and Volume 2.
- Increased the attack power and the pace of battle.
- Increased experience earned
- Reduced hit stops to improve the tempo of battle.
- Increased weapon proficiency acquisition rate.
- Added a feature to skip Awakening effect cutscenes.
- The difficulty of some particularly hard enemies has been relaxed.
- Lowered the probability of paralysis from enemies.
- Increased the speed of Skeith's bullets.
- Balance of HP, attack power, rush speed in avatar battle revised.
- Added a stun gauge on the enemy's head in avatar battle.
- Added a help feature for avatar battles, while UI has been redesigned.
- Enhanced the corrective values due to level difference in avatar battles.
- Added pause to battles in the VR system.
- Changes made to Volume 3 so that it's possible to get the engagement events with all allies without having to redo them.
While there is no release date, development is 80% complete, so a Japanese launch shouldn't be too far off.
.hack//G.U. was originally released between 2006 and 2007 for PS2, split across three volumes: Rebirth, Reminisce and Redemption.
You can check out all the screenshots below, but do keep in mind that they're from magazine scans, so quality isn't representative of the final game.

Vermouth makes a comeback!/
How do you feel about the big comeback of 'old-school' drinks such as gin, sherry and vermouth?
Ok, gin is by far the most established trend, but Sherry and Vermouth are steadily following.
When I visited Seville, Spain last month I saw firsthand the tradition of accompanying tapas with a nice Fino or Amontillado Sherry or a glass of red Vermouth.
I had read a lot about Sherry in my wine course WSET3, but I realized I knew very little about Vermouth. Join me to figure out the basics!
What exactly is Vermouth?
Vermouth is a fortified wine that is flavored with various botanicals (roots, barks, flowers, seeds, herbs, and spices).
It comes in many styles from white extra dry (you know it as an ingredient of the famous Dry Martini 🍸), to red and sweet with pronounced spice flavors.
Quick history & cool facts about Vermouth
As we know it today, Vermouth was created in mid 18th century in Turin, Italy.
The name "vermouth" is the French pronunciation of the German word Wermut for wormwood that has been a main ingredient of Vermouth throughout its history.
Originally used for medicinal purposes, eventually becoming a fashionable aperitif of the times.
In later years, other interpretations of the idea emerged in Chambéry (Savoy), Lyon/Marseilles and Spain.
In late 19th century bartenders start using Vermouth as a blending ingredient in cocktails.
Famous Vermouth cocktails that survive to date: the Martini, the Manhattan, and the Negroni.
Vermouth gained popularity in the 1950s with help from the Martini brand, which was being marketed by liquor companies. The best promotion for Martini was made by James Bond; "Martini. Shaken not stirred".
Around 2013, Vermouth made a comeback in the US and its renewed popularity is growing steadily. Artisanal produces are creating new Vermouth brands and vermouth is now considered a fast-growing category within the wine trade.
How and when to drink Vermouth
Whenever you like, really, but I prefer Vermouth as an aperitif before dinner. The science behind aperitifs is that their bittersweet character stimulates the production of gastric juices and promotes appetite. Aha!
Fill a low glass with ice, add a slice of lemon 🍋 or orange 🍊 and pour your sweet Vermouth and if you like top it off with some soda water. Drink standalone or with a simple platter with freshly cut Manchego and juicy Iberico ham like they do in Spain.
The three main Vermouth styles
The Italian Vermouth
When used without any qualification, refers to the original Turin style which is the red sweet vermouth. All vermouth has as a basis a white wine. To make it producers add a a caramel solution.
Brands to look for: Martini & Rossi (more citrusy tasting), Cinzano (more herbal tasting), and Stock which is the most popular in Italy the past 15 years.
The French Vermouth
The Marseilles style
The dry Vermouth is a Marseille invention. Brands to look for: Noilly Prat Original Dry, Noilly Prat Extra Dry
The Chambéry style
Chambéry it was the first to invent the Blanc style, the lightly sweet white Vermouth. Brands to look for: Dolin Rouge, Blanc and Dry & Routin Original Rouge, Blanc and Dry
The Spanish vermouth
The Spanish Vermouth emerged in the late 19th century mostly in Catalonia by producers of Italian origin. Their vermouths, largely comparable to sweet, red Italian vermouth, tend to have a less Alpine and more Mediterranean character.
Blended in cocktails
Some of the world's most famous cocktails are made with Vermouth:
