The EU have introduced more rigorous border checks at airports across Europe following a crackdown on people entering the Schengen Area. The border-free Schengen Area allows the free movement of EU Citizens without being subjected to border and passport checks. Countries in the Schengen zone are Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
The new Regulation 2017/458, introduced by the EU, supports the checking of non-Schengen passengers passing through the Schengen Zone against what is believed to be a security database. The regulation is not yet in full swing, with some airports yet to implement stricter checks which come into full force on 7th October 2017.
It is understood the new checks have caused major delays at large European airports and even caused passengers to miss flights. This is unfortunate for passengers; as the delays are outside of the airlines control, passengers cannot claim compensation under EU Regulation EC261/2004.

Sunrise over Doha
Sticking to my new year's resolutions which include to reclaim my ideal weight, and live a healthy lifestyle, I have taken running quite seriously lately. So today I went to Doha Corniche for a jog after fajr prayer. I was supposed to run with the guys from Doha Bay Running Club (which I just join yesterday), but I was 10 minutes late and they had already left. I ended up running by myself along the promenade and was mesmerised by the sunrise casting its golden rays over Doha city. It is a good enough reason to wake up this early on Friday morning.

On Friday, October 17, New York City Comptroller Scott M. Stringer hosted a workshop in honor of Disability Employment Awareness Month and the 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, at Lighthouse International in Midtown Manhattan.
Community based organizations and service providers, including, NYC Transit, Center for Independence of the Disabled NY, Harlem Independent Living Center and Lighthouse Guild, set up information tables to offer resources to attendees.
There are over 850,000 New Yorkers with disabilities, and 36 percent of working age people with disabilities live below the poverty line. New York City also lacks adequate accessibility for people with disabilities in housing, mass transit, and curb design. In the United States, there is 70 percent unemployment among people with disabilities.
One way the Comptroller's Office is seeking to expand opportunity is through the M/WBE letter grade report, which graded all NYC agencies on their spending with minority and women-owned businesses. Like minority and women-owned businesses, Emerging Business Enterprises, or EBEs, are also within the purview of City laws designed to encourage spending with M/WBEs.
EBE classification applies to businesses owned by individuals who have experienced economic and social disadvantage, such as people with disabilities and veterans. While the report was able to grade agencies on M/WBE spending, no money has been spent with EBE's. Currently, only 2 EBE's participate in this program.
The Comptroller recommended expanding contracts under Local Law 1, improving outreach to increase the number of certified EBEs, and an ongoing dialogue to inform the program's development.
As Stringer stated, "When we can harness the incredible skills and enthusiasm of the disability community, it will benefit all New Yorkers. Putting those with disabilities on a path to economic independence is the best way that we can expand opportunity for everyone."

Each year, the staff at Slingsby C P work hard to plan exciting and engaging history, geography, PSHCE and RE lessons.
In history we bring the curriculum to life through visits and historical interpreters who visit school with artefacts. We work closely with the village Historical Society to ensure that the children who attend our school, regardless of where they live, understand the richness of history which runs through the community.
In geography we study local, national and global places and look at how lives are different. We also study our locality and have talks from the local history group who can explain geographical features, which link in with history.
In RE we discuss the values and celebrations of faiths and cultures in our diverse world. We enjoy bringing these festivals to life by exploring them through craft and other hands on activities. We follow the North Yorkshire Syllabus for RE, which covers a multitude of faiths and beliefs. The pupils of Slingsby C P have an assembly each week in either the village church or chapel. These assemblies are organised and run by our local community.
The Slingsby Values for Life have a strong part to play in our PSHCE lessons, as do British Values. We study how to deal with life, worries and moral dilemmas. This is done through a variety of visitors such as NSPCC, CEOP (internet safety) and the York/Selby Magistrate Court. We also have discrete lessons dedicated to this theme. Healthy living, exercise and eating is also a theme that the children are taught.

Another Birthday has arrived. I was going to sit down and write a long post about what I am thinking on this day. I have mixed feelings about getting older. It does not seem possible I am as old as I am. I certainly feel my age at times, but mostly I feel younger.
So far today It has started out lovely with my husband and sons giving me some special gifts. My husband bought me my very own lap top and gave it to me on Christmas. He said it was also my birthday present. He really spoiled me this year. I am still trying to figure out all the programs for this computer. My sons gave me a Rachel Ray cookbook and a lovely trio of woodland rabbits for our new home. ( I love the woods.)
The phone calls started up early. It is so nice to be remembered and so loved. I am a very blessed lady. :)
I have decided that I want to spend the rest of my day painting. It is a day for pampering myself, and to enjoy. So that is what I am going to do. Writing in my blog all my thoughts shall have to wait for tomorrow.
Blessings Everyone!

Happy Belated Birthday dear Mysti
- you are slowly entering into the "prime of your life" - it has been moved up a decade or so...
Since 50 is the old 30.
I looks like you have a "double whammy" like me, another year and another birthday back to back - mine is coming up (Jan.14).
Lot of us Capricorns in blogland.

All the best for you

Corbis, owned by Microsoft chairman Bill Gates, and Getty Images, owned by Getty Oil heir Mark Getty, have been on buying sprees for more than a year as each company attempts to amass more online photographic and video holdings than its rival. Analysts estimate the digital image market to be worth $2 billion.
So far, Getty appears to have a commanding lead, with more than 70 million images. But Corbis, which boasts 65 million images, has come on strong in the past six months, completing a series of acquisitions including Stock Market Photo Agency and Saba Press Photos in March.
Getty recently has branched into music licensing; it is also creating a business-to-business portal for downloading digital images.
Miami-based Sharpshooters caters mostly to advertisers but also offers sports, business and lifestyle images. The company last year opened a moving footage unit.
"We are rapidly expanding our commercial offering to our advertising and graphic design clients," Corbis chief executive Steve Davis said in a statement.
Corbis will add Sharpshooters images to its Web site in coming months. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Music by: Sergei Prokofiev/Choreography by: Melissa & Michael French/Performed by: NewArt School of Ballet
I recently had the privilege of seeing our local ballet perform Prokofiev's Cinderella. It was absolutely stunning! The storyline is very much the traditional: Cinderella is kept busy doing chores while her stepmother and stepsisters, Anastasia and Drusilla, are obnoxious. The invitation goes out to the prince's ball where he is rumored to be choosing his bride, and everyone is all in a fluster to get ready. Of course, poor Cinderella is left alone in her rags at home while everyone goes to the ball . . . until her Fairy Godmother slips in to change her fate and help her meet Prince Charming. Cue fairy-tale ending.
Cinderella is such a classic story–because it works. (Personally, I'm not a fan of the Disney version, but retellings like Bound and Ella Enchanted are some of my favorites). Prokofiev's version works really well, expressing in a poetic combination of dance, acting, and music a story that is poignant, beautiful, dreamy, and hilarious. The serious characters like Cinderella, the Fairy Godmother, and Prince Charming are lovely and elegant–absolutely gorgeous to watch. But let's face it, it's the stepsisters that make the story; they are lazy, ill-bred, slovenly, stuck up, and utterly selfish in a most comical way–utterly abhorrent, yet utterly amusing onstage. I think the NewArt School's portrayal of all the characters and the story was remarkably well done, with just the right combination of the beautiful poetry of dance and the poignancy and humor of the story. And of course, the music is absolutely gorgeous: haunting, eerie, uplifting, sweeping. Basically, if you ever get a chance to see Cinderella performed, I would say "go."

Police have submitted the bullets and cartridges found at the scene of the murder - Ms Lankesh's home - to the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL). Sources in the Special Investigative Team set up specifically to look into the murder said the report from the lab is expected today. The report is expected to indicate the type of weapon used, the calibre - and whether a single weapon was used to kill the journalist or if shots were fired from more than one weapon.
Responding to reports that the same gun was used to kill Gauri Lankesh as was used in the murder of rationalist MM Kalburgi two years ago, the source said it was too early to say. Information was still being taken from the CBI which had taken that case over from the CID. Those reports would be sent to the FSL and a possible indication as to whether it was the same weapon would be known after about a week.
There have been no arrests in the case of MM Kalburgi either - and that is causing concern in the matter of the latest murder also. There are hopes that this will not be another unsolved crime.
Like Ms Lankesh, Mr Kalburgi was also shot dead outside his house. He was killed on August 30, 2015. It is widely believed that both were killed because of the views they held and openly expressed.
CCTV footage has also been examined by the SIT. Footage from Ms Lankesh's home in west Bengaluru has shown her being shot dead by a person in a helmet - but no number plate on the motorbike the person was riding is visible. The killer's face is also not seen.
Despite there being no arrests so far in the case - many have publicly speculated that the right-wing was behind the murder as Ms Lankesh was known for her left and anti-Hindutva views. Earlier this week, the BJP sent a legal notice to historian Ramachandra Guha, who had alleged that Gauri Lankesh's killers could be from the Sangh Parivar - a group of organisations led by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the BJP's ideological mentor.
Another theory that was mentioned by her brother, Indrajit, was that Maoists could be behind the killing. Gauri Lankesh had worked with Maoists, persuading some of them to give up arms and it was speculated whether this had drawn the anger of Maoists who were still part of the armed movement. Indrajit later went on to say that he wanted all angles investigated - right or left.
Her younger sister, Kavitha, has said she does not believe that Maoists were behind the killing.

Fun place, nice atmosphere, great friendly service, very good win ratio. It gets really crowded but very seldom too crowded to play your favorite games or machines. Good food options, the cafe is definitely worth the extra dollar or two you initially think you're overpaying. This casino isn't the biggest or fanciest or even the most fun compared to some others but they definitely do it right if you want a good relaxing experience. You'll want to use the free valet service on busy nights, it takes a bit to get your car back but worth not having to circle the lots and walk a mile lol

Extroverts like to talk, and introverts like to listen. In a job seeker role, talking about yourself is important to success, and some people, usually more of the extroverted in our world, find that role relatively natural and comfortable. That's not everyone, though. In fact Cain says 1/3 to maybe as many as ½ of all of us in the Western world are introverts most naturally, and would actually rather be with a few close friends or at home reading a book (or a good blog) than out socializing, making new connections in a meet-and-greet world.
Susan Cain takes a look at some of the heavyweights and heroes of today's American business scene. She interviews several students at Harvard Business School. She attends a Tony Robbins walk-on-the-hot-coals you-can-do-anything seminar. She examines her own past career as a Wall Street lawyer. In each of these settings, arguably where the most 'successful' in our world can be found, the extrovert style is the standard of behavior required. In fact, don't even consider, she observes, even coming to the party in these worlds if you intend to be a thinker first, or listen rather than speak, or study the situation cautiously before acting. Talking first is what works here.
She pokes holes in this John-Wayne shoot-from-the-hip philosophy of effective communication, pointing out that talkers do not have any better ideas than their quieter friends, and often times lack the clarity and innovativeness of introverts.
She cites convincing personal stories and examples of why introverts, like Mohandas Gandhi and Eleanor Roosevelt and Rosa Parks and Stephen Wozniak, to name a few of my favorites, each in their own introverted way, changed the world. Introverted leaders are more comfortable letting others shine. And introverted professionals ask the better questions, another characteristic of a dynamic contributor.
So why is the New York Times best-seller Quiet valuable for job seekers? If you are an ambivert or an introvert, this book raises the bar of confidence and self-assurance that quiet is okay, and often times more important to a good hire than how glib you can tell your story. This book provides a whole new worldview that respecting the quieter folks in the room is smart business.
We believe at the Interview Doctor that first defining yourself in writing, words that describe you, and a personal-example or story for each word, accomplishments outlined to feature your strengths, will get you noticed. And this strategy is made-to-order for an introvert, comfortable in being a thinker first, who carefully prepares their stories about themselves in advance, and practices them with friends.
If you can 'tell me about yourself' with clarity and focus, you can succeed in an interview. This book will help you better understand your natural discomfort with the job-seeking process, and help you gut it out through the awkwardness with preparation and thoughtful responses.
I met Susan Cain via a TED talk YouTube video – her TED talk the most watched of 2012. She models both sincerity and awkwardness in that talk. What shines in both the talk and her book Quiet is a well-defined new voice regarding the 'power of introverts.' Her talk is worth a look. Her book is worth the read.

BabyB Browne are sponsors of this years Miss Ireland competition. They gave us a complimentary bottle of BabyB Browne tan, and treated us all to spray tans the night before the Miss Ireland final which took place in the Ballsbridge Hotel in Dublin.
I am a huge lover of fake tans, and I had never tried BabyBrowne tan previously. What first interested me about BabyB Browne self tan, was that I loved how the tan came out in photos – the tan came out exactly how I like it to look, even and dark – but natural!
Since the Miss Ireland competition BabyB Browne has become my new favourite tan, I love the smell, it's infused with vanilla extracts – that's why it smells so good and it goes on so easily and streak-free.
I usually apply tan the night before a night out or event, but for the photo (below) I didn't have time to apply the night before so I applied it an hour before the photo was taken!
It comes out of the pump as a dark liquid so it's easy to see where you are applying it and if you miss any bits! It's literally dry in 10 minutes and looks dark straight away – it doesn't take hours to develop.
What I love about BabyB Browne tan is that it has a really even fade – it doesn't start to look dirty as it starts to fade as some tans do, I find this tan lasts me 5 to 6 days before I scrub it off with exfoliating gel and gloves and it's not hard to remove. It also doesn't leave my skin feeling dry.
This is due to the fact that the tan is enriched with Aloe Vera
Every one compliments my tan now and says it looks really even and natural!

Hope you enjoyed reading

NLRB's Hy-Brand soap opera accelerates
The NLRB's General Counsel is ripping the Board for denying litigants' due process rights and deviating from long-held practice by ex post facto disqualifying Member Emanuel from voting on the second round of the Hy-Brand case. The GC dropped its little bomb on April 5 - a brief in opposition to reconsideration of the Board's order which vacated the original Hy-Brand decision [PDF].
In December 2017 the Board, with Emanuel's participation, decided Hy-Brand Industrial Contractors, Ltd. (Hy-Brand I), 365 NLRB No. 156 (2017) [PDF], which overruled Browning-Ferris Industries, 362 NLRB No. 186 (Aug. 27, 2015). This changed the rules for determining when a company is considered a "joint employer." Hy-Brand I adopted a "direct control" test rather than Browning-Ferris' "indirect control" test.
Then in February three Members (not including Emanuel) vacated Hy-Brand I, having decided that Emanuel ought not to have participated. Hy-Brand Industrial Contractors, Ltd. (Hy-Brand II), 366 NLRB No. 26 (2018) [PDF]. It's pretty clear that Emanuel was blind-sided by this action.
The GC now wants the Board to set aside Hy-Brand II, basically for the following reasons:
1. Emanuel should have been allowed to rule on the motion for his recusal. That's been the long-standing practice at the NLRB and at other agencies.
2. It was not proper for three Board Members to vacate a decision that was made by five Members, especially when the Board had four Members.
3. Arguably, Emanuel had a right to sit on the Hy-Brand II case.
4. The Board violated the parties' due process rights, essentially because they were not given notice and an opportunity to respond to the Board's plan to vacate Hy-Brand I.
How will all this end? There's no way to tell. For right now we're seeing some pretty hot words being thrown by a Republican General Counsel toward Republican Board Members.

'Cancer is an inconvenience to me'
Stacy Kimmel is not being flippant when she describes breast cancer as an inconvenience. But even if she were, having had five conversations with someone in a white coat saying, "You have cancer," would give her permission.
"'Cancer is an inconvenience for me,' that's how I thought about it," said Kimmel, 49, describing her reaction after first being diagnosed. "It was getting in the way of my daily life. I also knew it was potentially life-threatening, but it was an inconvenience for a 38-year-old with a child."
Viewing cancer this way is an emotional reaction that could easily bend to darker thoughts — of losing everything, of not being around for her daughter. Kimmel is unwilling to do that.
"With a diagnosis like this you either keep fighting or you give up," said Mike Chen, M.D., Ph.D., one of Kimmel's physicians at City of Hope. "Stacy is a go-getter and she has a lot to live for. She's a fighter."
Kimmel's resilience, her defiant mindset, may — according to a review of studies — reduce distress and improve quality of life. Coping this way seems most effective when it begins at diagnosis, which may have implications for the often-tumultuous disease course.
"It was all about trying to move forward," said Kimmel. "Part of my reaction was me saying to myself, 'I want to be done with this. I want to be back to running, back to yoga, back to playing with my kid, you know?'"
My To-Do Is to Get a Mastectomy Today
In 2006, Kimmel was driving cross country to a new job in Nashville, Tennessee, when she first felt a painful, burning sensation in her chest.
The soreness and discomfort felt a lot like breast feeding, but her daughter was past that stage. When bloody discharge began leaking out of her breasts, Kimmel knew something was wrong.
"I immediately knew. I just knew," said Kimmel. "When they found the tumor, it was hardcore. It was, 'What? I have a 3-year-old. I just moved cross country. What am I going to do?'"
Days later, she was diagnosed with Stage 0 ductal cell carcinoma, an early-stage cancer in cells lining the milk ducts of the breast. Despite the good prognosis, Kimmel felt she needed to be aggressive.
"I figured I'm young, I have a long life to live," said Kimmel, who decided to undergo a bilateral mastectomy. "So, let's just be as aggressive as possible."
During the mastectomy, doctors in Nashville discovered the cancer was not local as they suspected, but had breached the ductwork.
"They saw that it was actually invasive," said Kimmel. "It had gone past the ductwork and there was a big tumor."
It was around this time that instinct — survival tinged with strength — kicked in for Kimmel.
She began doing what she does best: composing a to-do list. Checking tasks off lists was the habit of a lifelong career striver. She figured that same process would help her map out a plan to fight cancer.
"I was always very list-driven," said Kimmel. "So, it would be, 'My to-do is to get a mastectomy today. My to-do is to tell the plastic surgeon, 'You get two months to fix my breasts. That's it.'"
For two years after the mastectomy, Kimmel lived a relatively normal life and had no symptoms. But at 40, the overheated, swollen feeling in her breast area returned, this time suddenly.
"That time, I felt lumps under my armpit," she said. "I figured it was just swollen lymph nodes, you know, people get infections all the time. But they did an ultrasound and said, 'No, you have cancer again.'"
'Brain cancer, that changes everything'
"It's around the corner here," says Kimmel, gesturing. She is walking to an appointment at City of Hope, bathed in the fluorescent glow of hospital hallways she knows well. It is November, a few weeks before Christmas, and Kimmel will soon get the results of a brain MRI.
As she walks, Kimmel describes the level-II ancillary dissection performed on her after her second breast cancer diagnosis.
"They went into the armpit and removed a section of lymph nodes," she said. "And within that margin they then determine how many are cancerous …"
Then she describes the search for gatekeeper lymph nodes, and the risk, when a patient undergoes surgery, that the procedure can unleash malignant cells to distant sites in the body.
"You're pretty steeped in medical jargon," an observer remarks. "You sound more like a doctor than a patient."
"It's funny, I have had a few friends say, 'Who would have thought you would know so much doctor lingo?'" said Kimmel. "I'm dyslexic so I always joke with my friends, 'Yeah, I can't spell it, but I can tell you what it is.'"
Kimmel laughs, a chortle that comes more often — and much easier — than one would expect considering all she has been through.
Her mood on this day belies a sobering anniversary. Almost three years ago, on Christmas Eve, Kimmel was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. A lime-sized tumor had developed in her brain, marking her third bout with cancer.
"Breast cancer always seemed external to me, like it was on the outside of my body," she said. "I know it's not, clearly, but it's like a cut on your finger. Brain cancer? That changes everything."
Like Ripples on a Pond
"I was awed by the pace of research going from lab to doctor to patient," said Kimmel. "As a patient, I felt like I would be on the cusp of the newest and best treatment."
Kimmel had been seeing Joanne Mortimer, M.D., a breast cancer oncologist and the Baum Family Professor in Women's Cancers at City of Hope, when she began to have painful visual auras. They would encroach her visual field slowly, "like ripples on a pond," she said.
Her primary care doctor prescribed migraine medication, adding, according to Kimmel: "If they don't work after a week, I want you to go to your oncologist and get a brain scan." "When he said that, I knew," said Kimmel. "You can't walk through this disease for as long as I have and not know there's something wrong when you have certain symptoms."
A week later, when the migraine medications proved impotent against her visual seizures, Kimmel got a brain scan. It revealed the lime-sized tumor — lodged in the occipital lobe, the visual region of the brain. The location explained the auras.
The diagnosis was advanced metastatic breast cancer: Stage 4.
"She was very scared," said Chen, an associate professor in the Division of Neurosurgery, and Kimmel's neurosurgeon. "Luckily for her, even though the tumor was large, we knew we could go in and safely take it out."
Soon after the surgery, and a series of radiation treatments, Kimmel recovered, but a year later, she suddenly had insatiable thirst and diabetes symptoms. Something was off with her hormones and a brain scan eventually revealed a tumor in her pituitary gland. A year after that tumor was removed, a lesion cropped up in the same area where Kimmel's first brain tumor had formed.
It was three dizzying developments in two years.
"Stacy has been through several brain surgeries," said Chen. "But in looking at each problem individually, at that time, we knew we could deal with it."
Unusual Cancer
The cancer cells wending their way through Kimmel's system, beginning on that drive to Nashville, behaved unusually.
When it was first discovered in her breast, the tiny cancer cluster tested estrogen-positive, meaning its growth was fed by the hormone, estrogen. Yet, despite aggressive treatment, including the mastectomy and hormone therapy, the cancer returned.
Testing on tumor cells that eventually burrowed into Kimmel's brain revealed yet another rarity: The cells were estrogen-positive. According to Mortimer, estrogen-fed breast cancer cells almost never spread to the brain.
Later, when cancer cells migrated to Kimmel's brain a second time, they tested HER-2 positive. HER-2 positive breast cancer cells overproduce a protein involved in cell growth.
Kimmel's cancer was remarkable for how it deviated from almost everything understood about how breast cancer behaves.
"I'll bet I haven't seen two people like her," said Mortimer. "She had a three-millimeter cancer that was treated with mastectomy. She should never, ever, ever have seen it come back again.
"It's highly unusual that she did recur, but sometimes cancers behave atypically, and hers was atypical at so many levels."
Now, almost 12 years since she was first diagnosed, Kimmel takes each difficult chapter in her cancer story in stride. She gets a boost from her faith that however the next chapter unfolds, there will be an option for her at City of Hope.
"What I respond to most is the passion of the physicians and researchers, the people connection here," Kimmel said. "There is no doubt they've saved my life multiple times.
"I mean, I've had not a second chance, a third chance, a fourth chance, but a fifth chance at life. Who can say that?"

According to the SPL:-
The written decision of the Commission appointed in relation to RFC 2012 Plc (now in liquidation) and Rangers FC and chaired by Lord Nimmo Smith will be published on Thursday 28 February at 12.00 noon.
Luckily I should be by the laptop at that point, to provide dense and opaque analysis of the decision! 🙂
But, purely for fun and not intended as a scientific exercise, I thought I would offer my readers some input.
What do you think the outcome will be?
If I can work it, the polls will close at noon. (I can't work that, but they will close tomorrow evening – that is Thursday).
I refer in the polls to RFC 2012 PLC (in liquidation) as "oldco"; to Rangers FC as the "club; and to Rangers International Football Club PLC and Rangers Football Club Ltd as "newco".
As the SPL statement says, the case is against oldco and the club, but newco has an interest in the outcome as owner of the club.
In addition, there are four coounts. Three relate to failure to disclose contrcatual arrangements and the fourth to a failure by Duff & Phelps to co-operate by providing requested information.
So to the first poll:-
The second poll is in relation to penalty. Unless the SPL and SFA are very conspiratorial, a not guilty verdict will not lead to a penalty, but even if you have chosen "not guilty" feel free, if you want, to have a guess at the outcome if the Commission finds against Rangers. In this one you can provide more than one answer, and up to three, as the Commission can impose any one or more of 18 (or is it 19) possible sanctions.
I wonder what we will see!
Will it be this?
Or this?

This post is a guest post by the Sainsbury's Finance Blog team. Please see full disclosure at the end of this post.
Travelling even a short distance in a car with a baby can involve juggling a whole load of equipment, and a certain amount of hoping for the best. A long journey brings the added challenge of having to feed your baby on the way – so here's some advice to help.
To help keep the whole experience as stress-free as possible for baby (and therefore everyone else), stick as closely as possible to their usual routine. Your baby might not be able to tell the time yet, but they have a very reliable internal clock, and having their expectations met on time helps to keep everyone calm and relaxed.
How to feed your baby
There are several options for feeding your baby during a car journey.
- Breastfeeding: This is the easiest option as you won't need to pack any special equipment or worry about getting the temperature right. You can't do it on the move, however, as it would mean taking the baby out of their car seat – which is both unsafe and illegal.
Should the idea of breastfeeding your baby in a succession of unknown public venues make you uncomfortable, plan ahead. Make sure you are wearing easily accessible clothes and offer milk to your baby whenever you stop even if they don't seem hungry. You'll need to plan stops every couple of hours to feed and/or change nappies.
If you think you might need to feed between stops, or you prefer to express when out or about, you can bottle expressed milk and store it for up to 24 hours in a cooler bag with ice. To warm it up, you could either take a flask of hot water and a bowl, or ask service station staff to heat it for you. If you do the latter, always check that the temperature is right for your baby before attempting to feed them.
- Formula feeding: An easy travel option is to purchase travel packs of ready-made formula at the chemist.
To prepare powdered formula on the road, fill a flask or two with hot water, pack some sterilised bottles and teats, and prepare small packs of pre-measured powder. Bring extra powder along: service station staff should be only too happy to refill your flask en route.
- Solids: If you want to give your baby a snack to chew on while travelling by car, make sure that an adult is sitting next to them. If this isn't possible then give them a teething ring instead, or something else that doesn't involve swallowing, as there is a danger of choking if they are unsupervised. If hunger is getting to them, pull over somewhere safe and allow them time to eat.
If there is someone present to supervise the baby, food such as rice cakes, fingers of cheese, or slices of apple are nutritious and relatively mess-free. For freshly made meals along the way, bring food your baby is happy to eat at room temperature and that are easy to mash, such as banana or avocado. Or you could make up pots of their usual food before setting off, and reheat these when needed.

Corso and the Coed
Madison, 1981: The voice on the other end was difficult this time. Tight. The type of voice that would start sweating if it had to go on for too long. "Toosh, $400. I need $400. Medical bill. You got it?"
I made a little laugh, then became edgy. I worried (wrongly) that if I said "no" he'd never call again. And I knew that if I said "yes" two things would happen: he certainly would call again, and I would have to borrow $350 from friends to honor his request.
I first met Gregory Corso on New York's Lower East Side in '67 or '68 (that old chestnut about the '60s is, unfortunately, partially true). He had just given a reading and I was able to say hello and that's about it. He frightened me. His speech was a runaway bar car loaded with Gilgamesh and Shelley. He gesticulated madly like the true Italian ghetto boy he was. Even then both ends of his candle were ablaze. Years later, after getting Corso's San Francisco number from Ginsberg, I called him and asked if he'd like to come to Madison to give a reading. I was working at the Madison Art Center and Lanny Silverman was a curator there. We had planned to do a series of local poetry and music but I wanted someone from the "outside" to come in and kick it off. Having never been here before, and short of money, Corso agreed to make the trip. We had offered him $300, airfare and all expenses paid. On the phone, he seemed elated to wing out to Madison. It was February. Like I said, he had never been here before.
There was a problem, however. Corso was having difficulty with his on again/off again heroin habit. He phoned and asked if I had some—he didn't want to carry. I had to tell him that I hadn't banged smack in a decade. I did say that perhaps I could get him a script for methadone. He replied that that would be fine, he "just didn't wanna get sick" that far away from home. I called my then Zen doctor (who was also a poet) and explained the situation. He wanted to help but said that only the state's head MD could write a script for methadone. My doc tried to call this "head doctor" but he was in Canada for a month. Things were beginning to look a bit bleak. No one else knew what was going on and its weight upon me was becoming more than tiring. Finally, I called an old junkie friend in Chicago and told him to rustle up some stuff and meet Gregorio at O'Hare. My friend vaguely knew who Corso was and didn't think he would recognize him. I told my friend not to worry and that he needed only to watch for somebody who looked like he just flew in from San Francisco without a plane.
* * *
Coming out of the hotel and into the nighttime, blasts of ugly, cold wind were ripping up Frances Street. I shuddered. Corso had his breath blown away, and the sidewalk, plastered with layers of snow and ice, crunched heavy beneath our feet. Frances, between State and Langdon Streets, has a sharp incline and we were going down it. A college chick was coming up on the other side. We were the only three people on the block. All of a sudden another blast of wind whipped up the street. I was thrown up against the wall, Corso crouched, put his "bottle-in-a-brownbag" down and darted like a speed skater across the street.
Meanwhile, the coed had been blown off her feet and was on her back with hundreds of loose papers swirling in little white tornados above her. But Corso was there, sliding on his ass picking up sheaves of paper when he was down and handing them to her when he was up. He fell two or three times when something very interesting happened: the wind stopped. Completely stopped. And suddenly the night was as still and as quiet and as crisp as any February night could be. Corso continued picking up papers, no longer looking like he might be pulled off the planet. The coed was finally standing, tears criss-crossing the smile on her face. I was crouched over the paper bag, smiling at its contents.

Post-injury 5K -- 20:07
Claire and I had a good muddy 5K race this morning. Thank you, Pacifica Runners!
This is my first race since last July, because I've been dealing with a couple of injuries (plantar fasciitis and a hip problem). So, even though I'm a lot slower than I was a year ago, I'm just happy to have a fast pain-free run!
Claire came in 1st-place girl (17 and under) and I came in 1st-place adult male (way way older than 17). It was a small race, but still, it's fun to win! We each won a $40 gift certificate to A Runner's Mind (a running store). Nice!

Beginners Yoga for Freediving Intro
Starting to freedive can be one of the most exciting and daunting things you will ever do. Knowing you are being guided by an expert who is as invested in your happiness and wellbeing as you are, can make a world of difference.
Join Sara Campbell, Kundallni Yoga teacher and deepest woman in the world, on an exploration of freediving as a spiritual path and practice. Breathhold is the key to unlocking our subconscious hopes and fears. With the ocean as your teacher and world champion Sara as your guide, this is a powerful combination to both learn the techniques of freediivng, and take your first steps into the magical world of underwater soul exploration.
More about this course
Freediving is a metaphor for life; the way you approach your breathholds and deep diving is a direct reflection on some of your deeper subconscious patterns. Working with the water enables us to recognise, work with and release these patterns far more quickly, leading to expansion and personal freedom, It is a magical journey. If you are fascinated by pranayama practice and want to go deeper, want to understand more about yourself, the ocean and your potential, or simply want to learn how to relax in the ocean and connect with the wonder of our underwater world, join me for this truly unique and breathtaking experience.
Who is it for?
This programme is open to men and women from all backgrounds, all ages, and with all levels of yoga experience (including none at all!). Basic confidence in and around the water is helpful, but not essential.
Freediving is for everyone. Some come to freediving because of their love of water and the fun that they experience in and around it, others come to resolve past fears and traumas, water-related or otherwise, that they no longer want to live with. Approaching freediving through the modality and technology of yoga and meditation enables everyone to discover deeper truths about themselves as they progress at their own rate. There is no success of failure in the ocean, only learning and expansion.
Continuing your journey
The key to integrating this approach to freediving into your own training is to develop a sustained meditation and yoga practice. Sara's new online training Yoga for Freediving training programmes enable you to continue to build your mental strength and inner confidence around your regular training routines.

Today is compliment day so I've decided to write down all the compliments I want to give today here and then either text them out or give them in person. 🙂
What compliments are you giving out today?
Who are you giving them out to?
To my husband, Tyson, you are such a hard worker who inspires me every day to do better. You are genuine, honest, kind, and loving and I am so proud of you.
To my dad, your unwavering love for me and the rest of our family is something everyone should be jealous of and strive towards.
To my stepmom, Nikki, you put other people's children ahead of yourself (with an insane amount of patience) and have for a long time, which I find so incredibly admirable.
To my mom, you have a heart of gold and always try to do what's best for everyone involved and I try so hard to be like you when dealing with other people.
To my uncle, Tony, you're such a humble, genuine person. And I appreciate the brutal honesty you are willing to give me.
To my auntie, Karen, you're the kind of mother (and aunt) that all children deserve and I want to be like you when I 'grow up'.
To Courtney, you make a difference in every single life you come across. I feel so fortunate that I've had you in my life for almost 25 years.
To Matt, you have a heart of gold. Your love for my children astounds me every day and I always know I have a friend and confidant in you.
To Jonah, you have the ability to see the bigger picture and understand multiple viewpoints in a world where people are very one-sided. Not only that you are a true friend and I appreciate your friendship!
To Alo, you should be so proud of who you are. Not many people are as genuine or have the kind of heart that you do.
To Dave, you have an uncanny knack for always being able to make me laugh even if I don't want to smile.
To Tiffany, your determination to give your children the best life possible is admirable and refreshing. I am so lucky to have you as a friend and role model.
To Billy, the compassion you have for everyone you meet teaches me every day to be nice to everyone.
To Lauren, you are even more beautiful on the inside than you are on the outside.
To Emily, I don't know how you do it, but you look amazing even in sweatpants.
I sent everyone on my list their compliments and the ones who saw them or were awake sent me the sweetest messages back. I think everyone should give this a try today. It made my whole morning! ❤
Much Love,

This thesis is an ethnographic account of a musically oriented online milieu. It draws primarily on discourse analysis, ethnomethodology, semantic anthropology, and sociolinguistics to critically explore the interaction of 'amateur' electronic musicians within this environment. Following a preliminary discussion of the dominant theoretical terms in which the relationship between music and technology is conceptualised ('rationalisation' and 'democratisation'), with specific reference to the agent construed as subject to these forces, the peer-to-peer environment is described.

In this study, we statistically discussed the possibility to classify rice varieties using the ground data of multiangular spectral reflectance data out of rice plant canopy. We grew fourteen varieties of rice in the experimental rice paddy field where environmental conditions like soil, nutrition, water supply and local climate were expected to be homogeneous, and then we measured the value of the spectral reflectance at multiangulars of each rice canopy. Reflectance data were collected from 400nm to 850nm in every 1nm. And we measured the spectral reflectance at the off nadir angle of 45 degrees, 30 degrees, 15 degrees in the direction of the backward scattering and the forward scattering in the principal plane, and at the same angle of the principal plane in the orthogonal plane.The reflectance data of the green band (550nm - 560nm), the visible red band (675nm - 685nm) and the near infrared band (745nm - 749nm) at every measuring angle were computed for each rice variety. And then, the unpaired t-tests were done between one pair of means of rice varieties at every measuring angle.As a result of this test, the number of pairs of rice varieties which can be statistically distinguished using multiangular spectral reflectance data increased more than that just using the spectral reflectance data at the nadir angle. It became clearer that the difference of spectral reflectance measured from the rice canopies at multiangulars is statistically significant.

Last month I flew out to Arizona to attend the Tucson Gem Show. It was one of those "I am even working?" kind of business trips. Endless bead shopping, meeting new (and familiar) faces in the jewelry-making world, and driving through the desert with the top down after flying in from frigid-frozen Illinois.
I always choose a window seat when I fly. I cross my ankles, try not to bother the guy next to me, and get out a notebook. Then I press into the window for the rest of the flight, writing notes with arrows that point to some cryptic sketch.
Going west the colors of the landscape change from the frosty gray-green of frozen fields to the iron-ore red of the high desert, and then to the dusty tan of the south-southwest sands. Lakes and rivers are forgotten. Now just a few creeks show themselves: undulating black snakes below. Some parched, dry as a bone.
And the land changes, too, as the plains slowly rise to meet foothills, that quickly crumple into snow-capped Rockies.
And then to watch how civilization succeeds, or fails, at taming the land. I love looking down on tidy subdivisions laid out with straight streets, and little cul de sacs. But even more I love seeing these little street maps halt abruptly at some mountain, because who can tell a mountain to move?
Mountain: 1; Subdivision developer: 0.
In one barren spot there was a tidy line of satellite dishes (I think), like white map pins on a map. The land was perfectly wild and windswept, and the satellite dishes looked so space-age and tech-smart. They reminded me of a string of pearls, but even cooler than that: an irregularly strung string of pearls! Like stars in a constellation, some grouped here and some spaced out. Delightful. Like a Fibonacci sequence.
But more on that next week . . .

The name Damien Brunner has been thrown around in regards to the New Jersey Devils almost all summer, and it seems like the speculation is not done just yet. Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press is reporting that the Devils are still in talks with the Swiss winger.
Hearing UFA ex-Wing Damien Brunner may be talking to Dallas (Jim Nill knows him) and New Jersey, possibly also Vancouver.
In a deal which had the final touches completed just mere minutes before it was formally announced, the New Jersey Devils are now the property of a group headed by Joshua Harris and David Blitzer.
"I stand here today at Prudential Center with my friend, and fellow co-owner and partner David Blitzer to share with you the sense of excitement we have as the new owners of the New Jersey Devils," Harris said. "We look forward to building excellence on and off the ice for the fans, this city and the state of New Jersey. We have an incredible opportunity in front of us to revitalize this organization, we can rethink the way business is done and infuse the franchise with the resources and talent, both on the hockey and business side and the experience necessary to give the Devils a chance to achieve long-term growth and sustainability at an elite level."
In what can only be described as a tumultuous off-season for the Devils, there was a much welcomed positive moment on Thursday from Yankee Stadium. Bryce Salvador and Andy Greene were on hand at the ballpark for the announcement of the upcoming 2014 NHL Stadium Series games to be played at the iconic Bronx venue.
Both players are excited to be playing in the first outdoor game in Devils history, as it adds yet another great chapter to the Devils-Rangers rivalry.
On a sweltering, humid August afternoon from Yankee Stadium, it's usually all about balls and strikes, home runs and put-outs. But on Thursday, it was the NHL's turn to step up to the plate.
The NHL formally introduced the two upcoming Outdoor Series games to be played at Yankee Stadium in 2014. The first matchup features the New Jersey Devils against their cross-Hudson rival New York Rangers, on Saturday, January 26, 2014 at 12:30 p.m. The second game pits the Rangers against their other metropolitan-area rival, New York Islanders. That game will be played on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 at 7:30 p.m.
With time expiring on an overtime period that never should have been and a minute after a power play that should have ended the game came up empty itself, Kovalchuk found himself standing alone, although maybe that was because he was standing a mere foot above the goal line extended. No matter to Marek Zidlicky, who threaded the pass through the high slot and directly to a wide-open Kovalchuk. Most players would walk the puck out in front of the net, trying to go high on the opposite side -- one of Kovy's favorite shots. Instead, with Capitals goalie Michal Neuvirth just slightly out of position, Kovy sling-shot the puck past Neuvirth and into the open net, setting off a delirious reaction inside The Rock.
"You need your best players to make plays," coach Pete DeBoer said after the game.
Turns out, it was the coach's fault.
"You know what, really, the guys bailed me out," DeBoer said after the game. "We had two too many men on our bench minor. So, I think I?m leading the team in penalty minutes."
For his part, Volchenkov told Gulitti that he thought Schenn left his feet, but said, "it's hockey." Here's the video of the hit, complete with an explanation by the NHL's Czar of Discipline, Brendan Shanahan.
(Note: I've excerpted a small section from the story below, but it's really worth reading in its entirety.)
Via Tom Gulitti of The Record:
He demonstrated his resilience again two seasons ago, when two hits in a preseason game against Philadelphia triggered headaches and vertigo caused by the problem with his inner ear. He never gave up hope of resuming his career, however, and made it back last season to play in all 82 of the Devils? regular season games and all 24 of their playoff contests.
Patrik Elias and Ilya Kovalchuk are the alternate captains.
Don't forget to check out our navigation tabs with links to our partner sites above. Here is what is happening on this Groundhog Day morning....
Today the Devils placed Mark Fraser and Rod Pelley on waivers. If they are claimed off waivers they will have to play for that particular club. If they are not claimed by tomorrow they will remain on the NHL roster.
On October 16th I posted a rumor that the Phoenix Coyotes' unsigned center Kyle Turris could be heading to New Jersey. ?Well today he has asked for a trade and the Coyotes have denied his request. Turris' agent Kurt Overhardt has said that it was never about the money. He wants a fresh start with a different club. Overhardt has said that numerous clubs have made trade offers but will not name which clubs have made offers. This is very interesting since the Devils are in Phoenix tonight as they take on the Coyotes. Only time will tell because if Turris is not signed by December 1st he can not play this season. Stay tuned.
With the injuries to Travis Zajac and Jacob Josefson the Devils are lacking at center. Since the Devils have an abondance of wings coach Peter DeBoer has decided to move Zach Parise from left wing to center. Parise will center with Ilya Kovalcuk and Nick Palmieri. Last season Parise spent some time at center but that experiment was short lived. It is going to be very interesting to see how Parise does at center. I can't imagine him being a huge threat in the faceoff circle but he may play surprisingly well in terms of positioning. Tonight will be a good test for Parise as the Devils take on the Kings in Los Angeles.
Former New Jersey Devils' defenseman Colin White returns to New Jersey tonight as the Devils take on the Sharks. During the offseason the Devils bought out Colin White's contract. He signed with the Sharks and has fit in well with them. Hopefully the Devils faithful give him a nice hand when he steps out on the ice tonight. He has really helped out the Devils organization in his tenure with the team.
The New Jersey Devils have announced that they are going to honor the great broadcaster Mike "Doc" Emrick on?February?24th against the Vancouver Canucks.. Doc was the Devils' play by play announcer for the past 18 seasons. He was awarded the Lester Patrick Award in 2004 for his service to the sport of hockey. Doc was elected into the U.S Hockey Hall of Fame in 2011. Now he is play by play announcer for NBC sports.
Giants-Jets Moved to 2pm Saturday to Beat Storm
