A couple of coworkers from our warehouse had a small party yesterday.
I took care of the food as you can never have enough friends in the warehouse… 😉
It was a total of 15 people so it was an easy job and i did some of my "standard" cooking for partys.
Set up my stuff, made fire in the Excel and CG Outlaw and then prepped all the food.
When that was done i used my time to give my offset a nice hot fire to burn it clean and the brushed and wiped it.
The Menu :
– Dates stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped with bacon
-Pineapple grape skewers with sugar/cinnamon and vanilla glaze
-Bratwurst wrapped in tortilla, with grilled pineapple, arugula and hone/mustard/dill sauce
-4 Racks of loin ribs
-7 pounds of pork loin, glazed with orange jelly, chili sauce and Bourbon
-1 beer butt chicken
-Grilled Pralines
The whole fingerfood stuff is a real PITA to prepare but the guests always love em so much that its worth it.
It was a funny evening and everyone loved the food.
:[flash wow it's fantastic *-*
Oh my goodness,dear DM !
You are a dream machine,definitely ! [+]
Apart from that,lovely pictures to see which are a very pleasant way of life !
Nice tricks about pineapple and 4 Racks of loin ribs,defnitely gorgeous,I mean !
Mate,all the best to you and your staff,and please continue to enjoy our mouths !!! )(/ /()

Hate crimes committed by white supremacists increased 67% in Los Angeles County last year, according to a study released Thursday.
There were 105 such crimes reported, compared with 63 in 2015.
The study, which has been conducted annually since 1980 by the county's Commission on Human Relations, found that white supremacist ideology constituted 22% of all hate crimes in 2016.
Most of the white supremacist hate crimes — at least 70% — were acts of vandalism, followed by disorderly conduct, which includes swastikas drawn on private property.

My Friend Kramer.
In the Spring of 1981 my friend Kramer and I did a ride together we will remember we will remember for the rest of our lives.
I first met Kramer at The Charles River Creative Arts Program in Dover in the Summer of 1977. He came that year as a "camper". I was teaching 4 different film classes a day and had a bicycle shop of sorts in the basement of the main building.
I remember Kramer appeared in my bike shop one morning and didn't want to leave. His love for bicycles was over the top and I could see it was exactly what he wanted to be doing that Summer.
Over the next couple of years our friendship grew to be like brothers. Kramer's Dad would drive him out from Cambridge to ride in the country and trusted me with his son to go anywhere I felt was safe. I'm sure the stories he returned home with were enough to allow our fun and friendship to continue.
Some of our first off road adventures long before "Mountain Bikes" started to appear, were spent together. Kramer's energy was endless and his love for riding was infectious. We road everywhere and in all types of weather.
I remember Spring came early in 1981. I was 28 years old and Kramer 14. I was working at The Bicycle Exchange in Harvard Square. The Bi-Ex was closed Sunday's and Monday's and I had been going off and doing overnights on the bike almost every weekend. I had a customer tell me about an American Youth Hostel in East Bridgewater that was a large church with an indoor swimming pool. It had a Pullman Sleeper Car along side for bunks for the summers large crowd of bicycle tourists.
The Hostel sounded perfect for a ride for me and my young friend. It was just far enough away to allow for a good length ride south into Rhode Island and then spend the night for cheap at the hostel.
I called ahead and found out that we would be the only travelers staying at the hostel that night and when we got to town to call. The Fellow in charge would meet us, let us in and get us set up.
Kramer arrived at my place on time. I was getting my bag attached to my bike when the bracket for the bag broke. This was a problem, because without the bracket, I was not going to be able to carry the clothing I would need when we got to our stay for the evening.
After tring to fix the bracket, I decided that instead of bringing a bag, I would just leave everything at home and travel light. I would carry just the things to fix the bike in case of a mechanical or flat tire.
The plan was to do the ride, get to the hostel, shower, call out for a Pizza and sleep in our cycling clothing. The next day, ride home.
Kramer would do anything I came up with without argument. He liked the Idea of not having to carry bags to slow us down. If I wasent going to carry one, he wasent going to carry ether. We just took off.
The weather here in New England in Early Spring can be quite nice for cycling. You can ride hard and hardly sweat, so our Idea of sleeping in our cycling clothing was going to work fine.
We got to East Bridgewater in day light and found the church/hostel. The fellow running it showed us where we going to sleep and where the shower and blankets were. He gave us the key to the church and while he was leaving said, "Don't lock your self's out!" He then left for the evening.
Although the shower was huge, we decided to take turns using it. I remember the size of the hot water tank being larger then anything I had ever seen. The water pressure was super strong and volume of water like a waterfall. You wouldn't run out of hot water even if you tryed. Perfect for the finish of a long ride.
I finished my shower and got dressed back into my cycling clothing. By that time Kramer had explored the whole church and extra buildings attached.
Kramer said, "Check This Out!" I followed him into the Congregation with his flash light in the dark. In the church with all the pews were two coffins with Mummy's. Really. Perfect to add that extra strangeness for our stay alone in this huge place.
He also showed me the pool that was dry and the door leading to the Pullman Sleeper Car.
"And, Check This Out!" He took me across the whole complex and up a flight of stairs to a huge room. When he turned on the light, I saw racks and racks of clothing on hangers that was an on going Thrift Shop the the Church had for the town. The thought seemed to cross our minds as I remember at the same moment. We would dress for dinner and go out in style.
Of course, suit and tie would only be appropriate! Polished shoes too!
Our restaurant of choice that night was a Pizza place within walking distance.
Although the food was only so so, The Company was Great! We both knew that the story would become one of our favorites to tell for years to come!
Happy Birthday Kramer!

If you are currently co-parenting with a narcissist, my heart goes out to you.
I read countless stories every day from people in this community who are experiencing the daily frustrations, twist and turns, insanity and gut-wrenching nastiness that goes with trying to co-parent with a narcissist.
You may constantly be worried about how your children are being treated, including if the narcissist is poisoning them against you, or WORSE … if they are turning your child into a narcissist.
And it can be beyond horrible for your children caught in the middle, seeing your distress and pain and witnessing the conflicts between their parents.
Up until now, the term co-parenting is what we understand to be the role we take with a narcissist once separated.
However, the word 'co' would almost suggest being a team or working together with the mutual goal of caretaking our children, such as being able to collaborate healthily for the good of the child.
Yet we all know this is NOT possible in narcissistic co-parenting situations.
This is why I believe we need a paradigm shift in the co-parenting community. We need a NEW way where you can take your children out of the conflicts between you and the narcissist, and also remove yourself from the trauma of trying to deal with someone who just won't cooperate – so that you can be as healthy as possible for your children.
This can be done by adopting – Parallel Parenting.
This is a powerful, revolutionary way to have strict boundaries and even hold the narcissist accountable for their narcissistic behaviour.
Parallel parenting is about have joint custody with your children in a way that works, as effectively as possible, given the difficult circumstances.
In this very important Thriver TV episode, I explain WHAT Parallel Parenting is, how it can be done, the ways and moves you can make to enforce effective, accountable third-party communication channels … and the BENEFITS of parenting in this way.
Within this episode, I share with you my knowledge and observations of co-parenting with narcissists, which I have learned over the last 10 years, as well as a dear friend's invaluable information, regarding his incredible knowledge and experience whilst parallel parenting with a high-level narcissistic.
I SO hope, with ALL that I am, that this episode will help you if you have been struggling with this …. and I look forward to continuing this VITAL conversation by answering your questions and comments.

Basildon Council has invested £5,000 into replacing a children's roundabout after the previous one broke last summer.
Due to the age of the equipment in Lake Meadows, Billericay, no replacement parts could be found and it had to be removed.
The new metro roundabout was installed on Friday 6 February.
[quote width="auto" align="none" border="#0066cc" color="#0066cc" title="Quoted by Cllr Kevin Blake"]I'm delighted that the roundabout is being replaced in time for the summer so that children can fully enjoy the facilities in Lake Meadows, which is one of the borough's most popular parks.[/quote]

Not My Cat Blogging
As I was heading to the Bryan Center for lunch today, I ran across a cat that was completely terrorizing a squirrel. It chased the squirrel all around and up a tree at light speed and then the squirrel proceeded to agitatedly use a stream of inflammatory language at the cat. Eventually, the cat decided to just lie down and admire the disturbed squirrel from a distance.
The very large cat looked quite healthy with its beautiful and comparatively long coat. He wasn't nearly as afraid of me or as skinny as most feral cats that I see on campus, so I wonder if he's being well fed. Either that or the cat normally has better luck than he did trying to catch that squirrel.

BREVARD, N.C. – The pitching combination of Breanna Allen and Ricki Kuhn played a key role in Brevard's 2-1 victory over North Greenville in the first game of a two-game series at Ives-Lemel Field on Thursday. The Crusaders rebounded to claim game two of the doubleheader with a 6-2 win, splitting the 2018 home finale for Brevard.
Allen picked up her fourth win of the season, scattering five hits and allowing one earned run over five innings of work before giving way to Kuhn. Kuhn responded with her first save of the season, facing eight Crusaders (16-6) batters and allowing one hit.
Offensively, Brevard (11-17) was led by the duo of Brittan Miller (1-1, RBI, run) and Brittany Franks (1-2, RBI, double). The Tornados finished with five hits in the game, including a double by Franks and a triple off the bat of Amber Hong.
The Tornados put the first runs of the game on the scoreboard in the second inning. Hong connected on a one-out triple to right field, scoring two batters later when Miller singled to short. Franks extended the inning with a double to left field, plating Miller for Brevard's two-run advantage.
North Greenville cut the lead in half with run in the fifth inning. Celsea Rivers opened with a double to right field, moving to second on a sacrifice bunt by Taylor Koon. Brooklyn Stone followed with a single up the middle, scoring Rivers from third. Stone stole second, but would advance no further as Brevard tallied the final two outs of the inning to hold off the scoring threat.
The Crusaders put two runners into scoring position in the sixth inning, but Brevard again closed the door with its solid defense.
North Greenville established the lead early in the second game, after Hannah Gravely leadoff the game by reaching base on an infield error. Two batters later, with Gravely at second following a sacrifice bunt, Ashton Withers plated her teammate with a single to right field.
The Crusaders added two more runs in the second after Taylor Koon opened the frame with a double into left field. She came home two batters later with a triple to left centerfield by Brooklyn Stone, making for a 2-0 lead. A second infield error resulted in scoring of Stone from third as North Greenville snagged a three-run advantage.
Chelsea Rivers roped a double through the left side of the infield to extend the third inning for the Crusaders. Koon added a triple to right field, extending the lead to 4-0 through three innings.
North Greenville put its final two runs across the plate in the fifth inning, which began when Chelsea Rivers singled through the left side of the infield. Koon doubled into left field, advancing Rivers to third, before a bases-clearing triple off the bat of Stone, making for a 6-0 advantage.
The Tornados answered with two runs in the home half of the fifth, opening the frame with a leadoff single up the middle by Olivia Pauldin. Two batters later Teegan Bullock reached on a fielder's choice, advancing to second following a single to left by Emily White.
With the bases load after Elizabeth Traxler was hit by a pitch, Amber Hong sent a double to centerfield that brought home White and Bullock in succession.
Brevard threatened in the sixth, with runners on second and third, but the Crusaders ended the rally attempt to claim the four-run victory.
Jenna Griffin (5-5) tossed a complete game eight hitter, allowing two runs, three walks and striking out seven Tornado batters.
The Tornado offense was led by the trio of Hong (1-3, 2 RBI, double), White (2-4, run) and Jordan Hawk (2-2).
Brevard wraps up the 2018 season on Saturday, April 21st when the Tornados head to Erskine for a doubleheader that is set to begin at 2 p.m. For more information on Brevard softball check out www.bctornados.com.

When you sell things that you've held on to for no real reason, you realize, these are the things that "will collect rust,dust, and take up space" like a treasure. As simplicity comes to mind there is conviction that settles all around my heart. Stuff, stuff, and more stuff. Does Samford & Son still come on T/V. ? All I can think is how much junk they lived with and all around them, the irony is, it was a business. American society is a culture that makes hording a subtle thing, it is easy to miss. I hope this junk sells today! The variety of treasure hunters ranger from socks with sandals, families, moms, couples, and the very best, :wheelers&dealers. "will you take $3?for it" . The only response that makes sense-$3.50 and it's yours.

text: We study the correlation between citation-based and expert-based assessments of journals and series, which we collectively refer to as sources. The source normalized impact per paper (SNIP), the Scimago Journal Rank 2 (SJR2) and the raw impact per paper (RIP) indicators are used to assess sources based on their citations, while the Norwegian model is used to obtain expert-based source assessments. We first analyze – within different subject area categories and across such categories – the degree to which RIP, SNIP and SJR2 values correlate with the quality levels in the Norwegian model. We find that sources at higher quality levels on average have substantially higher RIP, SNIP, and SJR2 values. Regarding subject area categories, SNIP seems to perform substantially better than SJR2 from the field normalization point of view. We then compare the ability of RIP, SNIP and SJR2 to predict whether a source is classified at the highest quality level in the Norwegian model or not. SNIP and SJR2 turn out to give more accurate predictions than RIP, which provides evidence that normalizing for differences in citation practices between scientific fields indeed improves the accuracy of citation indicators.

WITH JUST four days left to help save children's heart surgery in Southampton, campaigners are urging Daily Echo readers to fill in the vital forms that could make the difference.
Despite the overwhelming backing for the newspaper's Have a Heart campaign, which saw a historic 240,094 people sign the petition taken to Downing Street last week, latest figures have revealed Southampton is lagging behind when it comes to completing the crucial public consultation response forms.
These will also be taken into account by the Joint Committee of Primary Care Trusts when it decides how best to scale down the country's heart units from 11 to six or seven.
Take Part in the Consultation
Click here to help save the heart unit.
The consultation is what the government will use to evaluate which units it will keep. It is imperative that as many people as possible use this opportunity to say they want 'Option B' which will save Southampton's children's cardiac unit.
So to back up the avalanche of support shown by the petition, campaigners are sending out a plea for more people to help put more pressure on health bosses by completing the online consultation form that could prove vital in the decision-making process.
Every form completed which backs Option B – the only one of four options which contains Southampton – will add weight to the argument that Southampton's specialist unit must be saved.
But latest figures have revealed that despite being top of the league when it came to filling out the questionnaires two weeks ago, Southampton has been overtaken by the East Midlands.
With just four days left to have your say, our region has sent in 6,593 forms, which is more than 3,000 less than the 10,023 form sent in from the East Midlands region.
Sam Prior,mum-of nine-year-old Aaron who was born with a serious heart defect, said: "The support we have had for the petition has been outstanding but this needs to be validated by the all-important response forms which will be used to help make their final decision.
"Not every question needs to be filled out and it will only take around 15 minutes to complete online, you just need to show that you want Option B because it is the best for quality."
Marcus Haw, consultant cardiac surgeon at Southampton, added: "If people who have signed the petition fill in a form then that would send a very powerful message to those making the decision.
I cannot stress enough how important these forms are."

This is a fantastic event and idea creat Josh's Wine List - Issue #23 By Josh's Wine List • Issue #23 • View online Last week, I was a judge at the People's Choice Wine Awards. This is a fantastic event and idea created by Janet Harrison. The aim is to put the consumers more directly in the judging seat: after all, they are the ones drinking these on a daily basis. In one round, we tasted 19 hearty red wines. Hearty red wines to suit hearty meals. If you ever want to really get to know what tannins feel like: taste 19 bold, red wines back to back in the space of two hours. It is intense.One of my biggest takeaways though was the power of the crowd. Our table was part of a boxed wine round. I've tasted quite a few boxed wines over the last year and am usually quite impressed with the quality. On our table, however, all it took was a couple of people to state early negative positions on boxed wine and the tone was set. Every wine had a mountain to climb because of that crowd opinion. Some were pretty bad, but there were also a couple of delights to be found (and I'm looking forward to finding out what it is when the results come out).I've had a few very good box/bag wines this year, and so next week will be giving them a feature. What do you think of boxed wines? Are they there yet in quality or is there still some way to go?This week in Taste, I run through a few of the Bodega Soul collection. Bodega Soul is the brainchild of Manuel Sevilla and aims to bring small, independent Spanish producers to England. Taste I try to make a note somewhere on every wine I can. Sometimes that's just the odd word or a simple tick/cross system. Three ticks, in my journals, is a sign of a really great wine in that bracket. 100x100 from Jumilla is a three tick showstopper wine. This organic syrah is absurd value at £11.60. It was a real surprise when I drank it. Perfumed and aromatic, smoky red fruits. Deeply and comfortingly red. Brilliantly balanced with soft tannins and not even that alcoholic like a lot of Spanish reds can be. A real delight.I opened a bottle of La Casica (£12.40) with a few friends. This is heavily spiced, with black fruits and a bit of chocolate. For me it was a bit too heavy on the alcohol, and the tannins needed a bit of food to grip on to, but opinion was mixed throughout. Oro Palido (£12.70) is a really lovely white. Vanilla and lemon on the nose with a juicy palate and a balanced body. Tropical fruits of mango and banana sit softly in the palate, this is a real delight. Umbrezo (£13.20) reminds me of an Argentine malbec in terms of body and weight, and would be a great suggestion for anyone who likes that style of wine. Cassis-like that also made me think of the Rhone. Salino (£14.50) is a great lesson in not judging a book by its cover. Truth be told I wasn't expecting much from this label design, but actually the white flowers and grapefruit were the sorts of notes I love in whites these days. Learn A rough guide to Italian winesLike most old-world wine, Italian wine can be confusing: often opting for regional context over grape variety. While some younger producers are doing this less so, it can still be tricky. Here's the five biggest regions and the grapes grown predominantly in it:Veneto: corvina, rondinella, molinara (red), garganega (white)Tuscany: sangiovese, cabernet sauvignon, merlot (red), trebbiano (white)Piedmont: nebbiolo (red)Emilia-Romagna: lambrusco (red)Lombardy: nebbiolo (red)Umbria: sagrantino, sangiovese (red), grechetto (white)Abruzzo: montepulciano (red)In future weeks, we will be exploring some Italian regions in more depth. What are your favourites? Wine myths debunked Silver spoon in sparkling wineYou'll all have heard/seen it: stick a spoon in your sparkling wine and it keeps the bubbles in there. If you really can't finish your sparkling wine when open, invest in a proper sparkling wine stopper. Good ones costs a bit: but you won't believe how well they work. Like what you read?

This summer term the High Attainers in upper school have been involved in lots of different projects. Below are a few students stories from the previous term
"During April of 2017, I and a group of Year 9/10 girls attended a residential weekend event with the 'Let Girls Learn' campaign launched by Michelle Obama in 2015. The campaign aims at providing quality education for girls in deprived and developing countries. Many charities have worked alongside this campaign in order to inform people about challenges girls face striving for education on a daily basis.
The event took place in Somerset and it was an extremely eye-opening experience as we engaged with people from different backgrounds and attended informative sessions with a great panel of hosts and guests. Many guests shared their personal experiences and we took part in relatable Q&A sessions that encouraged us to broaden our thinking skills. We also participated in interactive activities that helped explore the importance of girl's education alongside women's equality and the struggles we face every day and what we can do to overcome them. In conclusion, this was an insightful experience and inspired us, Lister Community School, to help create a change as we aim to provide a target of 500 books to an unprivileged school in India through the 'Teach for India' campaign".
Halimah (Y9) & Fatimah (Y10)
"On Monday 15th May, I (along with other high attainers from my year group) attended St John's College in Oxford University to celebrate and graduate from completing the Brilliant Club Project. We were selected to take part in the project since February where have been taught by a PhD student regarding a topic in the Stem or Arts Category. We picked the topic that we felt that we took a larger interest and was more attuned to. For example, I chose the Stem category and was taught about smoking; whereas other students picked Arts which involved learning about monuments.
At the university we were given a quick briefing and then experienced the equivalent of a 'school dinner' at Oxford, which proved to be much tastier. We then went on a great tour of the St John's campus which was lead by an Oxford Student. We saw the student rooms and main places of interest in the university. It provided me a huge insight into how university life is really like and what I should expect when I attend university. Afterwards, we were presented with our certificates in a small graduation type of ceremony.
The trip to Oxford gave me an insight into university life and how I can make the best use of my choices and opportunities. It has also increased my passion and aspiration of getting to university whereby I aspire to attend a university just as prestigious as Oxford"
Sonali Chaggar (Y9)
"A few months ago, we attended our first MUN conference. It was so exciting to know that we were going to participate in an event so unique and different to what we were used to. Such an educational occasion maintained our hunger for learning and empowered us further, knowing that we could put our learning in school to use.
When we first arrived, we expected kids our age that were as new to this as we were. However, we soon realised that we were surrounded by college and university students which made us feel quite intimidated.
As the conference began, and we each split of, we quickly learnt that we weren't the only beginners. Throughout the conference, we met numerous people that inspired us to attend to more conferences. It was exhilarating to discuss world events and feel as though we could solve them, whilst having the support of our chairmen guiding us throughout the whole process. The feeling of intimidation we once had disappeared with the energy of the other participants and the humour of the chairman.
But we soon had to leave after the time had whizzed by, although none of us wanted to. We were still buzzing from the joy and excitement from attending such an event hoping for other opportunities. We are all definitely looking forward to a next conference, awaiting to meet the same friendly and welcoming faces"

TitleOne, an Idaho-based provider of title insurance and settlement services, announced the acquisition of Sun Valley Title Company.
Sun Valley Title Company is based in Blaine County, Idaho and has locations in Ketchum and Hailey, Idaho. The company has been providing title and escrow services since 1907.
The company will continue to operate under the Sun Valley Title brand for the near future, TitleOne said in a release.
According to TitleOne CEO Mark Tidd, Sun Valley Title is the "perfect fit" for TitleOne in terms of geographic desirability, history and customer service.
"Adding Sun Valley Title to the TitleOne family will expand our servicing capability into more counties, with new locations and the addition of an outstanding team," Tidd said.
"The Sun Valley Title team has a long-standing history of delivering outstanding service to the Blaine County market—which is aligned with TitleOne's commitment to our team and customers throughout Idaho," Tidd added.
Under the terms of the deal, the Sun Valley Title team members will become part owners of TitleOne, and retain their current position. Cassie Jones, Sun Valley Title's manager, will continue to lead operations.
"We're very fortunate to benefit from TitleOne's well-earned reputation as an industry leader, and look forward to providing our customers with TitleOne's innovative technology and breadth of experience and knowledge," Jones said.
With the expansion, TitleOne now has 15 total offices and more than 200 employees in the Ada, Canyon, Boise, Bonneville, Butte, Blaine, Kootenai, Minidoka, Cassia, Twin Falls, Jefferson, Jerome, Gooding and Lincoln counties.

I've really enjoyed capturing our second pregnancy on the blog over the last nine months. We didn't get to do this the first time round when we were pregnant with the little lady as My Petit Canard only evolved after she was born. I've loved being creative and developing new images for each of these blog posts, but one of the things that might have made this a little bit easier would have been these lovely Babyblooms Pregnancy Milestone Cards.
I've come across plenty of baby milestone cards to document the first year of baby's life, but its the first time that I've come across pregnancy milestone cards which I think is a really nice concept. Capturing 14 key pregnancy milestones and birth, it's a lovely way to photographically document pregnancy and the first few days. Not only can you use the cards to take all your pregnancy bump pictures, but there's also space on each of the cards to write down anything you'd like to remember or capture like baby's first movements or key measurements which make these something that you can keep and treasure.
The milestone cards are simple and easy to use, are well presented, printed on lovely card, come beautifully boxed and are really reasonably priced at £10. If I had discovered these at the start of my pregnancy they would have been a really nice way to document our journey the second time round. But just because I missed out doesn't mean that you have to and as such I have one set of pregnancy milestone cards to give away to one lucky reader. All you need to do to enter is add your details to the Gleam competition below. Good luck!
Babyblooms Pregnancy Milestone Cards Giveaway
Disclosure; we were kindly sent the Babyblooms pregnancy milestone cards for the purpose of this review and giveaway. All opinions are my own.

Brando's Speakeasy
Time Out says
True to form, Brando's Speakeasy is anything but what it seems. It's a lounge, but conversation flows more like a neighborhood haunt. Its website promises a martini bar, but the list is mysteriously MIA (most people seem to down beer anyway). The decor and vintage posters throw it back eras, but the karaoke and late-night dance music add modern flair. While it's not Don Vito Corleone meets Al Capone as the name might imply, Brando's is definitely a mash-up.

i've been going here for a few years now, great vibe, great drinks and very friendly and accommodating staff. Leave your inhibitions and sing your favorite songs! Awesome pop-up going on for the holidays called Miracle on Dearborn Street!
Horribly irresponsible staff. There was a drunk belligerent patron there, throwing things at others and the staff didn't ask her to leave. I'll never go there again and I wouldn't advise anyone else to go there either. Dangerously overcrowded. The pizza was also horrid: poor quality sausage, grainy texture to the crust, and absolutely season-less. Don't waste your time.

Maternity wear is a term that is fast becoming obsolete as millennial mothers-to-be just do not see the point in splashing out on a new wardrobe that they will wear only for a few months, especially with today's fashion coming in so many adaptable styles and materials.
Much of an expectant mum's existing wardrobe can be easily adapted to fit her growing girth. Jersey or knit dresses, for instance, are stretchy and comfortable. And even the empire waistline that is so 10 years ago can now come out of the closet.
Joy Loh, 30 (pictured), a senior public relations manager who works with top fashion brands, is nine months pregnant with her first child. She gives her tips and tricks on how to avoid spending a single cent on maternity clothes.

Buddhism teaches that to find lasting happiness and meaning in our lives we need to follow a spiritual path.
To follow this path it is important to have a close connection with a qualified teacher who can give us personal advice and encouragement, to listen to pure Dharma teachings, and to belong to a strong spiritual community. These enable us to penetrate deeply into the meaning of Buddha's teachings, to maintain a daily meditation practice that is both focused and powerful, and to make genuine spiritual progress.
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, the founder of the New Kadampa Tradition, has designed three special spiritual programmes for the systematic study and practice of Kadampa Buddhism that are especially suited to the modern world:
The General Programme (GP) is open to everyone regardless of previous experience or background. These classes provide a basic introduction to Buddhist teachings and meditation and are suitable for beginners and those who wish to deepen their understanding. The purpose of these classes is to help people gain a personal experience of inner peace, overcome daily problems, and find real lasting happiness from within.
General Programme classes take place at our meditation centre in Island Bay and at our branch locations throughout Greater Wellington. In addition to these drop-in meditation classes, the General Programme also consists of our meditation courses and retreats.
The Foundation Programme offers a structured approach to learning Buddhist meditation through the study of a particular book. Through in-depth study and practise, it helps us close the gap between the inspiring teachings we hear at the Centre and practising them in our daily life. We learn how to integrate all the meditation practises and wisdom advice from Buddha into our normal daily life. In this way we gradually find a deep inner peace and happiness in our lives.
The Foundation Programme is open to everyone and you can join at any point in the year. The classes consist of guided meditation, teachings and discussion. By studying on this program we shall gain great confidence in meditation – from simple Buddhist techniques for developing inner peace, to the profound insights which lead to lasting wisdom and joy.
At Kadampa Meditation Centre Wellington in Island Bay we have two separate Foundation Programmes: one runs on Wednesday evenings and the other on Sunday afternoons.

Wednesdays 6.45 – 8.45pm
Studying The New Eight Steps to Happiness
New Section begins August 21: Reality Check – Emptiness for Beginners
The New Eight Steps to Happiness, is an inspiring explanation of one of Buddhism's best-loved poems, reveals essential methods for developing universal love, compassion and wisdom, the source of true happiness for both ourself and others.
Now, as we explore verse eight, we have the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of Buddha's most liberating and inspiring teachings, the teachings on emptiness, the true nature of reality. According to Buddha, our reality is not as solid and fixed as it appears. By recognising the true nature of things we can solve all our problems and fulfill our potential for lasting happiness, freedom and the power to benefit others.
with Resident Teacher Kelsang Shechog
Sundays 4 – 8pm
Studying Meaningful to Behold
Meaningful to Behold is a commentary to the inspiring poem by Shantideva, Guide To The Bodhisattva's Way Of Life. This book focuses on six spiritual trainings – giving, moral discipline, patience, effort, concentration, and wisdom. By integrating these into our daily life all our activities become beneficial and meaningful, swiftly advancing us along our spiritual path.
By joining the Foundation Programme, you will enjoy all the benefits of a Study Programme member. This entitles you to free access to events at the Centre and classes around Wellington. The Foundation Programme fee is $80 per month.
You must register to participate on the Foundation Programme. You can join the programme at any time throughout the year. Please contact our Education Programme Coordinator if you would like more information about the Foundation Programme.

The wait to see Gears of War 4 in action is finally over. Xbox fans everywhere have been counting down the days to Microsoft's E3 2015 press conference for the opportunity to see the gory and glorious return of one of gaming's most beloved third-person shooter franchises, and the wait was worth it.
In the weeks and months leading up to E3, Gears of War 4's appearance was hyped to the moon and back by Microsoft. The official Gears of War Twitter account started an E3 countdown, and Black Tusk Studios was re-branded as The Coalition, both steps to prepare for the epic reveal of Gears of War 4 during E3 2015.
Microsoft's E3 2015 press conference began with a look at some of the company's most iconic characters. Among them, Gears of War's Marcus Fenix, who put on his trademark bandanna while rubbing shoulders with Master Chief. This came after a brief tease of seeing what's next for the Gears of War franchise, the simple image of a dead body stuck with a knife with some cogtags dangling from the top.
However, Microsoft and The Coalition had a lot more in store for Gears of War 4 at the conference than just brief teases. They ended their presentation with the first ever gameplay footage of Gears of War 4, featuring new protagonists JD and an unnamed female character exploring a dark countryside. An epic storm brews up, forcing the heroes to seek shelter, and displaying absolutely incredible weather and lighting effects in the process.
JD and the unnamed female protagonist manage to find refuge in a dark, creepy castle-like building. The game seems to lean more towards the slight horror themes of the original Gears of War, with more focus on building atmosphere than the last few games in the series. While exploring the castle, it is made abundantly clear that there is a brand new threat to humanity, replacing the Locusts from the Xbox 360 entries.
For the most part, it seemed as though the gameplay that has defined the franchise is retained in Gears of War 4. JD battles the strange creatures using a chainsaw lancer, cover shooting mechanics, and the type of versatility gamers have come to expect from Gears protagonists.
Gears of War 4 wasn't the only Gears reveal for E3. Even though details on Gears of War Remastered leaked ahead of the event, it was still nice having a chance to see the Xbox 360 classic reborn on Xbox One, with updated graphics and gameplay. To help tide them over until the release of Gears of War 4, fans can look forward to picking up Gears of War Remastered on August 25th of this year.
Gears of War 4 doesn't have a set release date or release window yet, but it will be coming exclusively to Xbox One.

We are celebrating Australia Day with friends, family and friends of our family anchored at Matilda Bay on Saturday. We are heading up to Mangles Bay on Friday afternoon, then head into Fremantle Wharf on Saturday morning before heading up the river to Matilda Bay to anchor and raft up with 3 other boats.
We will be having a BBQ with sausages and chicken with salad for tea with fruit platter and nibbles throughout the afternoon waiting for the fireworks. We have a great bunch of people coming, they are all contributing to the day.
The fireworks for Australia Day are the biggest in WA and is a big deal.
Tradition is lamb chops, lamingtons and anything else Aussie.
I didn't buy any lamb cutlets as they were $36 per kg and there were only about 4 to a kilo and I wanted at least 2o cutlets 1 for each person. I decided on dinky dy Aussie Shepherds pie.
I have made 70 mini shepherds pie with lamb steak, that's nearly as traditional as using leftover lamb roast.
One of the girls coming is making lamingtons (sponge cake coated with chocolate and coconut).
I have bought bunting to go on the side of the boat and Bali style flags for the rear, a beach ball and little ears and an Aussie bow tie – all from Red Dot for Braandi. I have no idea what Grumpy will think of all of this junk going on his boat, just tough like I suppose, you have to get into the spirit of the thing.
Back In Mandurah they are having an Australia Day flotilla, this is where all types of boats get decorated and do an on water convoy through the canal system and then come back and raft up. Unfortunately this is a long weekend and we ALWAYS go away on the boat for a long weekend so we won't be able to participate.

Peritoneal metastatic colorectal malignancy
Nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain and tenderness. Suprapubic palpable mass.
Patient Data
Loading Stack -
0 images remaining
A 3 cm segment of distal sigmoid colon is circumferentially thickened (up to 8 mm) with narrowing of the bowel lumen which remains patent. Extending superiorly from the bowel wall at this point there are lobulated, centrally hypodense masses ( 5.2 x 2.6 cm ) with a further mass more laterally ( 2.6 x 3.5 cm ) adjacent to the left external iliac vessels and left ovary. The more proximal sigmoid colon is diffusely thick walled as is a loop of ileum running through the pelvis. There is no evidence of bowel obstruction. A small amount of free fluid is present in the pelvis.
There is extensive omental caking and numerous peritoneal soft tissue deposits. The liver is encased in mildly hypodense material without definite scalloping.
Lobulated soft tissue (2.2 x 1.7 cm) extends laterally to the right from the head of the pancreas. It is not clear if this represents a further deposit or a primary pancreatic lesion.
Within segment VII of the liver there is a subtle ill defined 4.5 x 3.1 x 3.7 cm hypodense mass.
The gallbladder, spleen and adrenals are unremarkable. A 12 mm round hypodense lesion in the mid pole of the left kidney likely represents a simple cyst but is too small to definitively characterize. No free intraperitoneal gas.
The lung bases are clear. No destructive osseous lesion.
- Extensive omental disease with a likely colorectal primary of the sigmoid colon. DDx of metastatic sigmoid infiltration secondary to an ovarian or pancreatic primary.
- A subtle hypodense lesion in segment VII of the liver is concerning for further metastatic disease.
- No bowel obstruction.
Case Discussion
Colonoscopy confirmed a primary sigmoid cancer.
Peritoneal metastatic disease is usually caused but GIT adenocarcinoma such as from the bowel, stomach or pancreas. In a female, ovarian adenocarcinoma is also in the DDx. If the appendix is abnormal, consider mucinous appendiceal tumors.

Windows 7 Ultimate x64 doesn't detect Samsung SyncMaster 2043NWX
Hello everyone,
Recently, I've got a Samsung SyncMaster 2043NWX monitor. It's an used one, but it did work. My computer is an Acer Aspire M3920 (desktop), a more complete configuration can be found in my profile.
My desktop PC connects to my main monitor, an Acer P196HQV via an HDMI to DVI connnector, and my desktop PC connects to my second monitor, the SyncMaster, via VGA.
The problem is, however, the second monitor doesn't work. Win7 does detect a monitor connected via VGA in Control Panel > Appearance and Personalisation > Display > Adjust Screen Resolution, it says in the display box:
2. Display Device on: VGA.
The SyncMaster shows nothing at all, the blue LED, where I can tell the monitor is turned on from, flickers all the time, but the screen doesn't show anything.
I have tried reinstalling the driver, restarting my computer, installing the newest updates for Win7, making the SyncMaster my main monitor, turning off the Acer monitor, but nothing works.
I really hope any of you can help me, and thank you very much for the time you've taken to read this problem of mine.
I have connected an extra monitor to my laptop running Win7 Ultimate x64 too without any problems, so I am not completely unexperienced.

Green Infrastructure incorporates natural systems and functions within the built environment, it is gaining momentum as an efficient and cost-effective tool for mitigating the negative impacts development has on water management, natural heritage and agricultural systems in our communities and the Greenbelt.
Installing Green Infrastructure in our yards can have the following benefits:
- Additional vegetation and natural features for homes and the public realm have been shown to increase property values, while also improving air quality and creating habitat for wildlife, including pollinators
- Rain gardens and bioswales can help recharge groundwater supply, manage stormwater, and improve local water quality
- Green roofs and green walls can insulate a home, reducing heating costs, and shade from planting trees can lower air temperatures, reducing cooling costs
- Cisterns and rain barrels can be used to harvest rainwater and provide an additional water source for gardening and car washing
- Permeable paving for driveways and sidewalks increases water infiltration into the ground
Find out more about each green infrastructure type:
Permeable Pavement. Surface treatments suitable for pedestrian or vehicular traffic which allow water to infiltrate into the ground.
Rain garden and bioretention. A planted or ornamental rock-filled depression designed to collect, infltrate, and filter runoff.
Rain Harvesting. Use of a rain barrel or cistern to collect rainwater and supplement fresh water supply.
Tree Canopy Expansion. Tree planting, protection and maintenance increases the total amount of tree canopy, which helps clean air, filter water and provide shade.
Xeriscaping. Groupings of vegetation with similar needs, in particular native species, to reduce watering requirements.

First Notebook – Paragraphs 291-300
291. On a certain occasion, I saw a person about to commit a mortal sin. I asked the Lord to send me the greatest torments so that that soul could be saved. Then I suddenly felt the terrible pain of a crown of thorns on my head. It lasted for quite a long time, but that person remained in the Lord's grace. O my Jesus, how very easy it is to become holy; all that is needed is a bit of good will. If Jesus sees this little bit of good will in the soul, He hurries to give Himself to the soul, and nothing can stop Him, neither shortcomings nor falls – absolutely nothing. Jesus is anxious to help that soul, and if it is faithful to this grace from God, it can very soon attain the highest holiness possible for a creature here on earth. God is very generous and does not deny His grace to anyone. Indeed He gives more than what we ask of Him. Faithfulness to the inspirations of the Holy Spirit – that is the shortest route.
292. + When a soul loves God sincerely, it ought not fear anything in the spiritual life. Let is subject itself to the action of grace, and let it not impose any restraints on itself in communing with the Lord.
293. + When Jesus ravished me by His beauty and drew me to Himself, I then saw what in my soul was displeasing to Him and made up my mind to remove it, cost what it may; and aided by the grace of god I did remove it at once. This magnanimity pleased the Lord, and from that moment God started granting me higher graces. In my interior life I never reason; I do not analyze the ways in which God's Spirit leads me. It is enough for me to know that I am loved and that I love. Pure love enables me to know God and understand many mysteries. My confessor is an oracle for me. His word is sacred to me – I am speaking about the spiritual director [Father Sopocko].
294. + Once the Lord said to me, Act like a beggar who does not back away when he gets more alms [than he asked for], but offers thanks the more fervently. You too, should not back away and say that you are not worthy of receiving greater graces when I give them to you. I know you are unworthy, but rejoice all the more and take as many treasures from My Heart as you can carry, for then you will please Me more. And I will tell you one more thing – take these graces not only for yourself, but also for others; that is, encourage the souls with whom you come in contact to trust in My infinite mercy. Oh, how I love those souls who have complete confidence in Me – I will do everything for them.
295. + At that moment Jesus asked me, My child, how is your retreat going? I answered, "But Jesus, You know how it is going." Yes, I know, but I want to hear it from your own lips and from your heart. "O my Master, when You are leading me, everything goes smoothly, and I ask You, Lord, to never leave my side." And Jesus said, Yes, I will be with you always, if you always remain a little child and fear nothing. As I was your beginning here, so I will also be your end. Do not rely on creatures, even in the smallest things, because this displeases Me. I want to be alone in your soul. I will give light and strength to your soul, and you will learn from My representative that I am in you, and your uncertainty will vanish like mist before the rays of the sun.
296. + 0 Supreme Good, I want to love You as no one on earth has ever loved You before! I want to adore You with every moment of my life and unite my will closely to Your holy will. My life is not drab or monotonous, but it is varied like a garden of fragrant flowers, so that I don't know which flower to pick first, the lily of suffering or the rose of love of neighbor or the violet of humility. I will not enumerate these treasures in which my every day abounds. It is a great thing to know how to make use of the present moment.
297. + Jesus, Supreme Light, grant me the grace of knowing myself, and pierce my dark soul with Your light, and fill the abyss of my soul with Your own self, for You alone […]
298. O my Jesus, the Life, the Way and the Truth, I beg You to keep me close to You as a mother holds a baby to her bosom, for I am not only a helpless child, but an accumulation of misery and nothingness.
+ The Mystery of the Soul. Vilnius, 1934
299. When, on one occasion, my confessor told me to ask the Lord Jesus the meaning of the two rays in the image, (note77) I answered, "Very well, I will ask the Lord."
During prayer I head these words within me: The two rays denote Blood and Water. The pale ray stands for the Water which makes souls righteous. The red ray stands for the Blood which is the life of souls…
These two rays issued forth from the very depths of My tender mercy when My agonized Heart was opened by a lance on the Cross.
These rays shield souls from the wrath of My Father. Happy is the one who will dwell in their shelter, for the just hand of God shall not lay hold of him. I desire that the first Sunday after Easter be the Feast of Mercy.
300. + Ask of my faithful servant [Father Sopocko] that, on this day, he tell the whole world of My great mercy; that whoever approaches the Fount of Life on this day will be granted complete remission of sins and punishment.
+Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.
+Oh, how much I am hurt by a soul's distrust! Such a soul professes that I am Holy and Just, but does not believe that I am Mercy and does not trust in My Goodness.
Even the devils glorify My Justice but do not believe in My Goodness.
My Heart rejoices in this title of Mercy.
