Regular consumption of omega-3 fatty acids in oily fish have been shown to substantially reduce the risk of having a fatal arrhythmia. Consider taking fish oil supplements if you do not have access to fish in your diet
Consuming small, frequent meals meals may also help to protect against arrhythmias by minimizing stomach distention and reducing strain on the heart.
calcium Calcium helps to maintain normal heart rhythm by stimulating the heart muscle to contract and relax. Leading Food Sources of calcium: Broccoli, Bok choy, Amaranth, Milk, Soybeans, Tofu, Cheese, fresh, Beans, dried, Kale, Salmon, Yogurt
magnesium Studies suggest that an inadequate intake of magnesium may raise the risk of an irregular heartbeat. Magnesium works with calcium and potassium to coordinate the activity of specialized cardiac cells that maintain heart rhythm. Leading Food Sources of magnesium: Spinach, Avocados, Chocolate, Pumpkin seeds, Oysters, Sunflower seeds, Brazil nuts, Amaranth, Buckwheat, Quinoa, Almonds, Barley
omega-3 fatty acids To prevent arrhythmias, experts recommend eating two servings per week of oily fish rich in healthful omega-3s.

For children, it is easy to come forward and blend all the beliefs which we adults find difficult because of the biases we hold against other communities. The benefit? This gives rise to form our own multi-cultural environment. Does that make refugee children any different? No! They too like to flourish, dream and hope but most of the time are deprived of opportunities.
Watch the TED video here-
Through TEDX, Somali-American model Halima Aden shares her story about the journey from being a refugee to an international model and eventually landing up on the cover of Vogue magazine.
If you want to make a difference in the society, help people to thrive and not just survive because wondering from where their next meal will come from is something not unknown to them but hoping for a better future is.
"When people come from different background and don't speak the same language, conflicts used to break out," says Halima.
Her story:
Halima, a black Muslim Somali American, was born in Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya after her family fled civil war in Somalia. She has returned to this refugee camp, where she lived until the age of seven, to inspire people and give them hope.
She recalls her days in the camp where often conflicts used to break out because there were people from different cultures and they spoke different languages. Over there, she started to embrace children from different communities and cultures and this gave her life a new meaning. "Celebrating holidays like Christmas even though I was raised as a Muslim and other children did the same, prayed along with me," says Halima.
This talk was presented to a local audience at TEDxKakumaCamp.
She has appeared on magazines like Vogue Arabia, British Vogue, Teen Vogue, Grazia UK, S Moda and Allure, in which the publication showed her as an all-American beauty, which was a crucial acknowledgment for America's Muslim community. Aden's editorial credits also include Harper's Bazaar and Glamour, and she appeared on the runway for Yeezy, Alberta Ferretti, Max Mara, Philipp Plein and Dolce & Gabbana.
Recently, Aden was named an official UNICEF Ambassador and loves spending time with family and friends.
Through Halima, we get to learn that the beauty of human skin is in every color and, from where you come, doesn't determine what you will become.

Toyota decided to reveal today the 2013 Venza ahead of its official debut at the 2012 New York Auto Show. As expected, the car comes with new headlights featuring LED technology, with a new front grille, new fog lights featuring chromed rings, new door mirrors featuring the obligatory built-in signals but also updated taillamps.
For the 2013MY, the Venza also offers three new colors: Attitude Black, Cypress Pearl and Cosmic Gray Mica. The interior was also updated and is available in three colors Ivory, Light Gray, and Black, which is new for 2013. The steering wheel buttons were slightly updated and the 2013 Venza can be fitted with Toyota's Entune package capable to integrate your smartphone with the vehicle's display found in the center of the dashboard.
Regarding the engines, the 2013 Venza offers a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 181 horsepower and 182 lb.-ft. of torque but also the 3.5-liter V6 that produces 268 horsepower and 246 lb.-ft. of torque. The 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine delivers 21 mpg city/27 mpg highway for the FWD model and 20/25 for the AWD, while the V6 FWD model has EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings of 19 mpg city/26 mpg highway and 18/25 for the AWD.
According to the Japanese manufacturer, the 2013 Venza will be available in LE, XLE and Limited grades. The LE and XLE models are available with all powertrain combinations: four-cylinder, V6, front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD). The Venza Limited is available only with the V6 engine.
Toyota's STAR Safety System comes as standard on all Toyota vehicle models. It features enhanced VSC or Vehicle Stability Control, TRAC or Traction Control, ABS or Anti-lock Brake System, EBD or Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Brake Assist, and SST or Smart Stop Technology.
The VSC automatically adjusts the engine output as well as each wheel's braking force in order to help control the loss of traction while cornering. Meanwhile, TRAC helps in maintaining the traction while driving during challenging conditions. Brake Assist determines if the driver is trying to do an emergency brake. If the driver hasn't stepped firmly on the brake pedal to engage the ABS, the Brake Assist supplements this applied braking power until the pedal is released.
Then there's Smart Stop, which offers additional safety level by reducing engine power automatically when the brake and the accelerator pedals are simultaneously applied under certain driving conditions, therefore bringing the car to a controlled stop. HAC, which comes as standard on all Toyota Venza models, provides pressure to the brakes temporarily while the vehicle stops on an incline in order to help make it easy to start the vehicle with no rollback.
Additionally, Toyota Venza provides 7 airbags, including the knee airbag for the driver, the front-seat-mounted side airbags for the driver and the front-seat passenger, and side-curtain airbags for both front and rear. Moreover, in case of a severe frontal collision, the front seatbelt pretensioners retract the front seatbelt while dual-stage force limiters contribute in limiting the seat-belt force that was applied to both the driver's and the front passenger's chests.
The driver's and front-passenger's seats also have active headrests. This means that if the vehicle gets struck from the rear, there is a cable-actuated mechanism that will move this headrest upward and then forward in order to limit the movement of the person's head.

QCD Resummation Of Soft Gluons In Effective Field Theory
Idilbi, Ahmad
Ji, Xiangdong
MetadataShow full item record
Abstract The main results of this thesis are the introduction of a new and systematic way to treat and resum logarithmic enhancements, to all orders in perturbation theory and to any desired logarithmic accuracy. The method developed is applied to the threshold logarithmic enhancements as well as to small transverse momentum distributions. We utilize an effective field theoretic approach to perform the resummation which turns out to be in complete agreement with the conventional approaches, though it is a much simpler one. This approach will be applied to deep inelastic scattering, Drell-Yan lepton pair production and the Standard Model Higgs production. We have derived the functions $g_i(\alpha_s \ln {\overline N})$ for $i=1,2,3$ that resums threshold logarithms up to next-to-next-to leading logarithmic accuracy. Certain quantities (the $D^{(3)}$ for the Higgs production and the Drell-yan process and the $B^{(3)}$ for deep inelastic scattering) that contribute to the resummation at the NNNLL are also derived. Moreover, our method opens a door towards understanding the origin of the universality of the functions $f$ that contribute to anomalous dimensions of the quark and gluon form factors. On the conceptual level, the effective approach to compute the perturbative coefficient functions of the factorization theorem(s) highlights the way these theorems could be viewed in terms of a multiple steps of integrating out momentum modes through a matching procedure. The remaining infrared divergences (at the factorization scale) are exactly the parton distribution functions. In this work we also study exclusive processes. We will be mainly concerned with the nucleon to delta transition and how to utilize perturbative QCD to obtain a leading order factorization formula for such a process, and for similar ones. Based on this, we are able to make phenomenological predictions for certain transition form factors which can be verified experimentally.

- Chicken breast seasoned with coriander and turmeric
- Smoked Gouda
- Red and green apples
- Minced red onion
- Sunflower seeds, pepitas, raisins, and pecans
How to Select a Sugar Pumpkin
- Make sure the pumpkin is free from bruises and soft spots. Don't forget to check the bottom!
- The skin should be hard enough that your fingernail doesn't leave a mark.
- Don't carry the pumpkin by the stem, as this could damage it.

Roasted Pumpkin and Chicken Salad
- Prep Time: 50 minutes
- Cook Time: 40 minutes
- Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes
- Yield: 11 cups 1x

Just drizzle on the tasty lemon Dijon dressing right before serving. Your guests will be wowed with all the special fall goodies in this hearty salad.
For the Chicken
- 1 extra large boneless skinless chicken breast (300g)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (15 ml)
- 1 tablespoon butter (14g)
- 1/4 teaspoon coriander
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
- sea salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Lemon Dijon Vinaigrette
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (59 ml)
- 2 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar (30 ml)
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar (30 ml)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (15 ml)
- 1/3 cup olive oil (78 ml)
- sea salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Salad
- 6 cups romaine hearts, washed, dried, and torn into bite-size pieces
- 3 cups roasted pumpkin, cubed (483g)
- 1 Gala apple, cubed
- 1 Golden Delicious apple, cubed
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 3 1/2 ounces smoked Gouda cheese, cubed
- 1/4 cup red onion, minced
- 1/4 cup roasted and salted sunflower seeds, shelled
- 1/4 cup roasted and salted pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
- 1/2 cup pecans
- 1/2 cup raisins
Roasting the Pumpkin
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- Wash and dry the pumpkin. Make slits with a sharp knife all over the pumpkin for steam to escape.
- Place on a plate (stem side up) and microwave on high for 5 minutes. This will soften the outer skin to make cutting easier. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Cut the stem off, then cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and pulp. Keep seeds for roasting.
- Place on a foil lined baking tray, flesh side up. Brush the flesh with olive oil and sprinkle with coriander, turmeric, sea salt, and black pepper. Place flesh side down and roast for 35 minutes. Half way through, turn the halves over with tongs so the flesh side is up. The pumpkin is done when it can be easily pierced with a fork.
- Once the pumpkin has cooled, carefully scoop out the cooked flesh from the hard outer skin. Brush the pumpkin flesh with butter to add flavor, then cut into 1/2 inch cubes.
Cooking the Chicken
- Wash, pat dry, and cube the chicken breast.
- Melt the butter in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and chicken, then sprinkle with coriander, turmeric, sea salt and black pepper. (The turmeric will turn the chicken a yellowish color.) Cook until no longer pink inside, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Place the chicken in a bowl along with the juices.
Making the Lemon Dijon Vinaigrette:
- Whisk the first five dressing ingredients together, then slowly add the olive oil. Sprinkle in some sea salt and black pepper, then adjust seasonings to taste. Pour in a mason jar and refrigerate until ready to use.
Assembling the Salad
- Wash and dry the apples, then cut them in cubes, leaving the skin on for color. Toss the apple cubes with two teaspoons of lemon juice to keep them from turning brown. (If you're doing a composed salad, keep the two kinds of apples separate.)
- For a composed salad, cover the serving platter with a layer of lettuce. Mix the sunflower seeds, pepitas, raisins, and pecans together in a bowl. Arrange the salad ingredients in stripes, starting in the middle and working out to the ends. If not using right away, cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge. When ready to serve, set the salad dressing out for guests or family members to pour on their own individual servings.
- If you want a mixed salad, carefully toss all the ingredients together in a large bowl, then add enough salad dressing to lightly coat. Garnish with cheese, raisins, and pecans and sprinkle on top. Serve immediately.
- Feel free to make this salad ahead of time. For the freshest taste, keep the ingredients separate until you're ready to serve.
- Want to make this vegetarian? Omit the chicken and add wild rice or quinoa.

- Recipe for Nourishing Beauty – Sweet Rice Congee
Acupuncture for Facial Rejuvenation
Acupuncture has been used to treat skin complaints and reduce signs of aging for centuries. In fact, facial rejuvenation acupuncture, also known as cosmetic acupuncture, has a recorded history going as far back as China's Sung Dynasty (960AD – 1270AD), when the Empress and the Emperor's concubines used it to engender beauty and good health.
Facial rejuvenation acupuncture can improve muscle tone, increase collagen production, tighten pores and boost circulation and moisture in the skin. Moreover, when acupuncture is used to create overall balance within the body, the physical, mental and emotional patterns that contribute to aging are addressed, helping you look and feel younger.
The theory behind facial acupuncture is that hair-thin needles inserted along wrinkles and frown lines stimulate energy and relax the muscles. This leads to a tightening of the facial muscles, which decreases sagging of the facial skin, and an increase in the production of collagen, filling in fine lines and wrinkles.
Benefits of Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture
• Increases the production of collagen and elastin
• Improves muscle tone (preventing further aging and wrinkles)
• Improves local lymph and blood circulation
• Softens or erases fine lines and wrinkles
• Reduces the depth of deeper lines
• Decreases bags (puffiness) under the eyes
• Reduces or eliminates acne and rosacea
• Provides a consistently smoother and brighter face
To look and feel years younger, facial rejuvenation acupuncture offers less risk, expense and recovery time than medical alternatives. While this procedure cannot reshape facial features, it is a more subtle rejuvenation that can take years off one's face safely and naturally while improving overall health.
Treatments are personalized for each patient. If you would like to learn more about facial rejuvenation acupuncture, please call for a consultation today!
The 5-Minute Acupressure Face Lift
Here is a 5-Minute Acupressure Face Lift to smooth wrinkles and firm up the face.
To draining the lymph system and smooth the skin
• Begin at the center of the forehead using the thumbs, and stroke across the eyebrows. Repeat 3 times.
• With the pads of the thumb, move from the outside edge of the eyebrows to the hollow in front of the ear (Fig 1).
• Using 3 inner fingers of both hands to massage the back of the neck from middle towards outside for 30 seconds with circular motion.
To lift and tone the face, chin and neck
• Stroke upward in lines from the eyebrows into the hairline. Repeat 3 to 5 times (Fig 2).
• Press on DU20 (the point on the very top of the head) to bring energy upward. Repeat 3 to 5 times.
• Using the pads of the thumbs, stroke in a circular motion from the eyebrow to temple to jawline and to the points below the eye. Repeat 9 to 12 times (See Fig 3).
• For neck wrinkles: Stroke upward from the collar bone to the jawline. Repeat 3–5 times (See Fig 4).
Recipe for Nourishing Beauty – Sweet Rice Congee
Sweet black rice, when cooked with longan berries (euphoria longana) and Chinese dates, becomes a congee that nourishes blood and Qi.
In the Oriental medicine system of food cures, these three foods work together to enhance beauty and longevity.
• The sweet rice promotes the flow of liver Qi, which helps keep angry feelings at bay and leads to calmness.
• The Chinese dates (different from the Mediterranean variety) nourish blood and spleen, promoting restful sleep and mental clarity.
• Longan fruit, a blood enhancer, was used by the ancients to add luster to the skin. From a Western perspective, we know that longans contain large amounts of Vitamin C and phenolic compounds, which may help to detoxify and protect the liver.
Sweet Rice Congee
(Taken from Ancient Healing for Modern Women, by Dr. Xiolan Zhao,
6 cups water
1 cup black sweet rice (wash before using)
½ cup dried longan fruit
10 Chinese dates
2 tablespoons raw sugar
½ inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
In a large heavy saucepan, add 6 cups of water, black sweet rice, longan fruit, dates, and raw sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer for two hours, stirring occasionally. Garnish with ginger. Makes four servings.
Note: All ingredients are available at most Asian grocery stores.

Mike Ford takes a few stabs at Christmas trees, lights and Barbie dolls—all, believe it or not, traceable to pagan customs!
Jesus was not born on December 25. The roots of Christmas are found in Saturnalia, and many of the trappings of Christmas are directly imported from paganism.
Christmas is also called Yule, Noel, the Nativity, Advent, and the Feast of the Incarnation. Many were borrowed from other languages; all come from paganism.
By its materialism and syncretism, this world's Christianity has helped the modern, secular world sanitize Christmas, disinfecting it of its biblical 'taint.'
If there is indeed a 'war on Christmas,' then let Rome defend it, for it was pagan Rome that co-opted the winter solstice and inserted the presumed birth of Jesus.
Because of the pagan origins of Christmas, increasing numbers of Christians realize that one cannot 'put Christ' back into something in which He never was.
Did Christmas come from the Bible or paganism? Here are the origins of the Christmas tree, Santa Claus, mistletoe, the holly wreath, and exchanging gifts.
The Catholic Church mixed truth and falsehood to have the 'official' birthdate of the Son of God coincide with the rebirth of the sun, the winter solstice.
Christmas, Easter, and Halloween all derive from sex, fertility, and sun worship. Christmas traces to the incestuous relationship of Semiramis and Nimrod.
It is dangerous to judge something on the basis of apparent 'sincerity,' which is often the opposite of godly sincerity. Godly sincerity is paired with the truth.
February 14, Valentine's Day, may seem harmless enough—until the truth of its origins comes to light. Mike Ford exposes this pagan day.
To keep from being swept up in the bandwagon effect of compromising with sin, we must make sure our convictions are not merely preferences.
May Day has become a cardinal day for worshipping demons and the greenery of the earth. It is one of Satan's eight pagan holidays that displace God's Holy Days.
False prophets promote the broad way, giving people what they want to hear. They replace God's truth with human tradition. They are identified by their fruit.

Optimizing Parallel Belief Propagation in Junction Trees using RegressionThe 19th ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (2013)
The junction tree approach, with applications in artificial intelligence, computer vision, machine learning, and statistics, is often used for computing posterior distributions in probabilistic graphical models. One of the key challenges associated with junction trees is computational, and several parallel computing technologies - including many-core processors - have been investigated to meet this challenge. Many-core processors (including GPUs) are now programmable, unfortunately their complexities make it hard to manually tune their parameters in order to optimize software performance. In this paper, we investigate a machine learning approach to minimize the execution time of parallel junction tree algorithms implemented on a GPU. By carefully allocating a GPU's threads to different parallel computing opportunities in a junction tree, and treating this thread allocation problem as a machine learning problem, we find in experiments that regression - specifically support vector regression - can substantially outperform manual optimization.

Luxturna (voretigene neparvovec-rzyl) is currently the only approved gene therapy available in the US. It is the first medication approved for an inherited genetic disease ever. Luxturna was approved by the FDA at December 19, 2017 for the United States and it is currently under supervision at the EMA for approval in Europe. It is developed by Spark Therapeutics and outlicensed commercial rights outside the United States to Novartis.
Luxturna is used for patients with an inherited form of retinal dystrophy. Retinal dystrophy is an umbrella term for a wide range of progressive eye diseases. 'Retinal' means that the condition is related to the retina, which is the back layer of the eye which converts light into an understandable message to the brain. 'Dystrophy' is a degenerative condition. Retinal dystrophy causes progressive reduction or deterioration of vision which eventually can result in complete blindness. Luxturna can be used for patients who have mutations in the RPE65 gene in both chromosomes.
Luxturna is an adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2)-based treatment where the correct copy of the RPE65 gene is delivered without disturbing the genome. Luxturna is injected directly into the retina so it can infect the retinal cells. When RPE65 is expressed in those cells, it can perform its function and in principle, halt the progression of the disease.
Imlygic (talimogene laherparepvec) is a genetically modified herpes virus used to treat melanoma. Imlygic was approved by the FDA at October 27, 2015 and by the EMA at December 17, 2015. It was originally developed by BioVex and continued by Amgen after the acquisition of BioVex by Amgen in 2011. Although melanomas shrink due to Imygic, there is no statistically significant benefit in overall survival. In other words, Imlygic does not extend lifes of patients with melanoma. The lack of benefits in combination with the price tag of approximately $65,000 makes Imlygic unpopular to prescribe for doctors.
Imlygic is an oncolytic viral therapy with attenuated life herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). In HSV-1, two genes are removed and one gene is added. The genes who are removed originally code for the proteins infected cell protein 34.5 (ICP34.5) and infected cell protein 47 (ICP47). ICP34.5 blocks the response of healthy cells to stop replicating and die after viral infection. However, cancer cells lack this system. By removing ICP34.5, HSV-1 can not replicate and kill normal cells, but in cancer cells they can. ICP47 suppresses an immune response to viral infection. Removing ICP47 should trigger an immune response, in theory. A gene coding for granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is inserted to promote an immune response to cancer cells infected by Imlygic. Despite these efforts, clinical evidence for an immune response to cancer cells due to Imlygic is not available.
Note: this page is under construction. New gene and cell therapy products will be added soon.

A Lockport chemical company was cited by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for violating the Clean Air Act in connection with its use and storage of phosgene gas, federal environmental officials reported.
Twin Lakes Chemical Inc., a chemical manufacturer, had 32,000 pounds of deadly phosgene gas at its Mill Street location when EPA officials conducted a recent inspection there, the EPA reported. Phosgene is used in the manufacture of plastics and pesticides. It is a toxic industrial chemical that is lethal at room temperature, the EPA said.
Federal investigators found that Twin Lakes didn't comply with identifying hazards and failed to "adequately support, secure and label phosgene equipment and pipes." It also failed to adhere to requirements governing equipment safety.
Officials said the company addressed the violations before settling the matter with the EPA. The company certified it's now in compliance with the Clean Air Act.
The settlement includes Twin Lakes paying a $40,000 penalty for the violations and an estimated $100,000 payment to purchase hazardous materials equipment for the Lockport Fire Department.
"Chemical facilities are required to establish risk management plans in order to prevent and prepare for chemical accidents," said Judith A. Enck, EPA's Regional Administrator. "By taking steps, such as properly labeling chemicals, properly training employees, and providing employee emergency health care, chemical facilities can protect the communities where they are located."

If you've ever opened up a magazine, listened to the radio, or watched a commercial, you've been the target of advertising. There is a lot of it, and it is everywhere. If you are reading this in the United States, then it's especially prevalent. The US is one of ONLY TWO countries IN THE WORLD that allow advertisements for pharmaceuticals. The other is New Zealand.
With the constant bombardment of sales pitches everywhere you look and listen, it's no wonder that we've stopped seeing them at all. Most, if not all of us, know that when we hear the phrase "Best Burger in the West", we can safely assume that is a subjective opinion of the staff, or a catchy slogan.
That faucet won't make entertaining in your home more fun, but gosh darn it sure seemed that way in the commercial.
So how does a company go about getting their audiences attention? What does their audience actually pay attention to? Where is their focus, and how do you grab it?
One simple method is the simple and easy-to-use honesty approach. Clear, succinct, easy-to-read information. Or….
The No Marketing Marketing Approach
It is so tempting to channel your inner Mad Men and come up with a catchy phrase or lofty promise, but there is an easier way. Tell your audience what they want to hear.
So what DO they want to hear?
People rarely read website pages. Instead, they will bounce from headline to headline in a matter of seconds. The same principle goes for videos. People tend to watch, on average, ONLY THE FIRST 2 SECONDS of a video. If you're lucky they might give you five. Don't believe me? Start paying attention to what YOU are paying attention to.
Tutorial videos, which are a GREAT way to get viewers and traffic btw, are often guilty of the wasted intro time pitfall.
Hello my name is ZippyBot3 and welcome to my youtube channel. Please subscribe by clicking the subscribe button below, or visit my website at www.toolongofaURL.com/ZippyBot3/Tutorials where you will find…..
Sound familiar? How about his instead…
Hey i t's ZippyBot3 going over Photoshop tools and how to use them. Make sure your tools panel is open by going to window > tools. At the top we've got the "Move" tool.
BOOM I'm hooked. In LESS time then the first example's introduction, I already know –
- What we're learning
- Where to start
- Lesson 1
If you get people to actually stick around and watch your video there will be plenty of time to give them more of your personal information.
On your webpages keep this short attention span in mind. What is the most important bit of information you need a visitor to know? Take that piece of info and turn it into a short and readable heading. Then add further details below. Most people know what they are looking for and don't want to spend a lot of time reading through lots of text to find it. Make it easy for them. Some people might want to know prices, so have a "Prices" heading. Some people might want to know what all you offer, so make a "Services" heading.
When was the last time you heard about an offer and immediately went out to take advantage of it? Chances are, unless it's something you were already planning on spending your money on, you passed. Let's consider this scenario. I'm going to assume you own a car. You see an add for an oil change at HALF OFF! That's a great deal, but you won't be needing an oil change for another 2 months. At best you cut out the offer and put it on your fridge, IF it doesn't expire before you'll need it in 2 months. Now you've got 2 months of it sitting there, taking up space on your fridge. At my house that would get taken down and thrown out to reduce clutter pretty quick.
What company was it? Is it worth going there even without the special offer? Who knows. The only thing you noticed about the advertisement was the Half-Off discount.
This is an example of attempting the right ad at the right time. It didn't work very well. Yes you got it in front of a large amount of people that own cars, but your offer was for a service that is pretty time sensitive. So unless they see the offer on their way to get their oil changed, you've missed an opportunity.
Traditional advertising methods encourage MORE! More Ads, More Money, More Exposure! And to an extent that still rings true. You DO want to get your company name in front of your audience enough that they remember it, but you DON'T want to pester them into vowing to never use your service. So let's think back on the oil change. Maybe you change your strategy to put your name in front of your audience repeatedly until it's time for that service and they do go to your shop because of it. Great! Right? Depends on how much money you spent getting that message out multiple times for the 1 service. If you spent $900 for repeated ads in the newspaper for a $20 oil change, lets hope you do several of them!
So what do you do?
I have found in my years in marketing that getting a clear and accurate message out to an audience that is easy to find is the best way to go. What do you offer, what does it cost, and how can I get access to it? Make it EASY to find your business and purchase your product or service. Make sure your product or service is good, (this includes customer service), and you will not only get repeat customers, but probably their friends and family as well.
It can be up to 10 times more expensive to market to a NEW customer, then to a repeat one.
Know your audience.
Are you catering to an older crowd or a younger one? Are you passing up potential buyers by not including younger buyers? Studies are showing that the younger a potential purchaser is, the LESS they respond to traditional marketing.

Exactly what's the Distinction Between a Criminal as well as a Work Background Check
You could be puzzled if you are adopting a job, as well as your possible employer has determined that they would like to run a background examine you. You need to never take this personally, as it is standard for lots of companies today. You can be sure that if they are asking you if you would certainly give them approval to run one on you that they are doing the same for every single bachelor they are speaking with. Wrongdoer checks are not as inclusive as well as background checks, however rather, could be a little part of them.
A criminal background by itself is quite basic. It ought to be a record of any offenses of which you have actually been convicted. If you served time and/or had parole, this ought to show up. The same can be said if you were on probation. Though numerous kinds of criminal checks bring up various things, a lot of that are provided for employment only raise felonies, and misdemeanors are frequently ended the document, though you could not be sure of that. It is in your benefit to tell your company just what they are going to locate, if anything, so they recognize you are being honest.
There are a few points that should not show up on a criminal background check. You need to not be reported for arrests that have not brought about a conviction. That means if you were a suspect in a robbery, but discovered to be innocent, that need to not be specified. That would certainly be an apprehension record, as well as after that, those are not constantly all inclusive too. That would certainly imply you click here now were being punished for something of which you were innocent.
Entirely background examinations, on the other hand, are more comprehensive. This means these checks can bring up anything that you have permitted for via a created record. A firm may wish to check your academic records, your past work history, your credit rating, and your criminal past history. Those are all things they might need to understand before they hire you. Some will certainly not, or will only request a few of them. The laws vary, so know prior to you go exactly what your rights may be.
When it concerns both kinds of checks, they can be discovered with various sources. One of the best is the on the internet criminal background checks You can also go there by yourself to see if you have anything that comes up in your previous. Mistakes can take place, so it never injures to ensure all yours is exact prior to you start a job search of your personal.

With this year's focus on the theme "Education, Learning, Training and Awareness for Sustainable Development" the three day event attracted close to 40 academic and non-academic delegates from India and Germany. Almost half of these had already attended the first dialogue event in March 2017 allowing for many participants to continue their discussions and connections while at the same time expanding the network to new partners.
Chella Rajan, IGCS Area Coordinator Landuse at IIT Madras, welcomed the participants on behalf of the IGCS. The first day saw an overview of the concept and objectives of the IGD series by its initiator Dr. Christoph Woiwode. Besides Dr. Jenny Lay-Kumar who as co-convenor introduced the audience to urban food and gardening in Freiburg, two invited speakers presented on natural farming in India (Dr. Sujatha Byravan) and education and learning for sustainable development in India (Dr. Milind Brahme). The remaining day was used to allow for intensive sharing and listening to each other's work and activities in two parallel sessions. This activity yielded in rich insights across sectors like urban farming as well as educational and pedagogical activities in places like Delhi, Chennai, Pune or Cologne, Bochum and Freiburg.
Day two built on these insights to form thematic working groups around emerging core themes such as agro-food systems, cross-cultural and traditional knowledge systems, participation and governance, and carrying forward this network. The last day was devoted to exposure visits exploring Freiburg city, the Lokhalle innovation centre and two urban gardening initiatives in the famous Vauban neighbourhood.
This IGD has not only intensified existing networks but also increased bilateral expressions of intent to collaborate across the two countries and within. We are already looking forward to the third IGD which will be hosted and co-convened by Bharatiya Vidyapeet Environment Education Research Centre and the Centre for Environmental Education in Pune.

1. Keep it basic and simple. You don't have to make beef cordon bleu. I have been cooking for over 20 years and I have never made it. No one said it better than Julia Child: "You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces – just good food from fresh ingredients."
Alan Koehler author of The Madison Avenue Cookbook, (1961) mirrors my sentiments exactly: "In cooking don't confuse excellence with complexity." Good food does not have to be complex and have 25 ingredients. I deliberately shy away from most recipes like that.
The very first recipe I shared here at More Thyme meets both Julia's and Mr. Koehler's criteria to a "T." Tomatoes with Noodles is a recipe from the book 60 Minute Gourmet, by Pierre Franey. Quick. Easy. Delicious. Basic. Simple. This is a meal you can make when you get home from work at 6 p.m. with little or no hassle. You fix the meal and put the kids to work making the salads.
2. At first, follow the recipe directions. Then as you feel more comfortable play around a bit. Make recipes your own by adding or substituting ingredients.
This tip leads to the next……………….
3. Don't be afraid to improvise. I learned this lesson when I did not follow tip #2 above. One of the basics to cooking is making sure you have all the ingredients for a recipe at hand. This happened way back in the 70's. I know. That almost makes me ancient!
Anyway, I was making Hamburger Stroganoff and I was sure I had onions in the fridge. But I did not. And I was in the middle of everything and did not want to make another trip to the store. I looked in the fridge and I found some green onions. So I used those. They were great in the recipe.
I was forced to improvise. And it worked and increased my level of confidence.
So great in fact, that I often just substitute green onions for regular ones. Not exactly traditional Russian Beef Stroganoff. But it reminds me of my cooking roots. If I don't use the green onions in the recipe itself, I will often chop some up and toss them on top as a garnish for old time's sake.
4. Cook what you like. Don't make a recipe just because you saw it on TV or the internet or a magazine, or because it looks pretty. Remember, those food pictures are posed and touched up. Any resemblance to real food is purely coincidental! Cook what you like and you will be successful. This leads me to……….
5. Don't judge your finished dish against the picture in the cookbook, magazine, internet, or TV show. The food in those pictures have been doctored to look good in photos just like a model has gobs of make up on and is still touched up to look good.
The only way to judge the food you cook is how it tastes and if you and your family like it.
This leads me to………………
6. Give yourself permission to mess up. It happens to everyone. One of the reasons I , and I think most of America, loved Julia Child so much is because if some thing didn't work she was prone to laugh it off, and just say, "oopps." She didn't ask for a 'do over.' She would say if you were alone in the kitchen who would know except you. Or she would say you could always eat your mistakes. I love that attitude.
Do not be intimidated by the entertainment of cooking shows. I love them as much as the next person. Maybe more. But I also know and realize that TV celebrity cooks have people. Lots and lots of people. These people do the grunt work. They chop and dice and prepare and clean up. These stars also get to make the recipe several times over and tape a scene till they get it right. Or have mistakes edited out.
In real life we don't get a 'do over' nor can we retape our cooking mistakes away.
So don't judge your cooking by what you see on TV. I ascribe to this philosophy when cooking: "When cooking, be nonchalant and proceed with an attitude of victory over all difficulties, imaginary or otherwise." Irma Rombauer author of The Joy of Cooking.
7. Give yourself enough time. If you have been working all day, or you have to get the kids to soccer practice you probably will not be able to cook a 7 course dinner for your family; or even something as simple as a pot roast which is easy, but takes hours to roast in the oven. Save those types of meals and extra fancy items for the weekend or some other day when you have more time. Don't put extra added stress on your self.
For me the idea of cooking is to fix less expensive and healthier meals for you and your family while also have some quality time with your family as every one helps out putting a meal on the table, even if it can only be once a week.
Featured Recipe Mixed Mushroom Pasta
This is a quick and easy meal to make on a week night. I am making it today because I still have some mushrooms from the other day (Mushroom Vermicelli) and some cream from last week in the fridge that I have to use up before they spoil.
All I had to buy was 4 more ounces of mushrooms because everything else was already in the fridge or pantry.
It would probably make more sense for me to share my Hamburger Stroganoff recipe with you today since I mentioned it above. But that would be too logical and would require more organization and planning than I can normally muster.
But it is on my list of recipes to share with you this winter. I promise you I will share it.
This is what you will need for 3 people:
6 ounces of fettuccine
1 tablespoon butter
8 ounces of mixed mushrooms*
1 small shallot
1 large clove garlic
½ cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons dry or sweet sherry*
Chopped parsley for garnish
*NOTES: Use a mixture of button, shitake, porcini, Portobello or wild mushrooms. What ever you can find. The mushrooms at the store today did not look too good. So all I got was some shitakes to add to the left over button mushrooms I had.
You can substitute sweet or dry vermouth or Madeira wine for the sherry. The tatse of the finished meal will vary with what you use.
Here is what you do:
Put the water you will cook the fettuccine in up to boil. When boiling add some salt and the pasta and cook according to package directions.
All this is best done before you actually start to cook the sauce.
Using a mushroom brush and a damp paper towel clean the mushrooms…………………..
………………….and then slice them.
Dice the shallot and garlic. Chop the parsley.
Melt the butter in a pan.
Add the diced shallots and garlic and sauté till wilted, about 5 minutes.
Add the mushrooms and sauté till heated through.
Add the cream and the sherry and simmer till blended and the cream thickens some what. If this does not occur add a pinch or two of corn starch.
Add the fettuccini to the pan and mix thoroughly. Season with the salt and pepper.
Put on a plate, sprinkle with some of the chopped parsley, and serve with a salad or some fruit.
Bon Appetit!!!!
6 ounces of fettuccine $0.50
1 tablespoon butter $0.15
8 oz. of mixed mushrooms $2.29
1 small shallot $1.33
1 large clove garlic $0.17
½ cup whipping cream $1.50
2 tablespoons sherry $0.10
Chopped parsley $0.08
Total cost = $6.12
Cost per person = $2.04
Quote of the Day
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for something you are not.

How to Pick the Perfect Elliptical
I often sit and wonder, as I'm contemplating my navel, how to pick the perfect elliptical. It's not as easy as it sounds. When picking the perfect elliptical you have several factors to consider. How much space do you have to place the machine? Can it stay there all of the time or do you have to store it one place and use it in another? Is there enough ceiling height to use the machine? Blah, blah, blah and those are just the mundane factors. We're not even talking about the user's height, stride length, shape of the ellipse, width of the foot pedals, programs, features and ergonomics. No, picking the perfect elliptical is not an easy task but I will help you find the perfect elliptical for you. All this navel contemplating has to be for something!
In picking your perfect elliptical, get the mundane stuff out of the way first. Find a place for the machine and determine how much space to devote to it. Nothing smarts like finding the perfect machine and then realizing you only have half the space you need for it. Also, forget about being able to fold it up and move it out of the way. Any elliptical worth anything is way too bulky to be moved around like that. Just put it out of your mind. If you can move it around like that the elliptical is probably pretty poor. If you are going to use a basement make sure you have at least 7' in ceiling height. Ellipticals are not treadmills. People tend to get a little bouncy on them. Slamming your head into a ceiling is not a great way to workout.
Okay, the mundane stuff is out of the way. Let's focus on the how to determine the perfect elliptical for you. Number one? What's your inseam? Your leg length, not your height, will determine the stride length that is most comfortable for you. I'm 6'3" but I have short stubby legs for my height, 29" inseam, so I can get away with as little as an 18" stride and still feel comfortable. As a general rule I tell people to use 30" inseam as a starting point. If you're north of that, make sure the elliptical can stride out longer than 18". What's number two? Ellipse shape.
If you like to run you are going to want a flatter ellipse. If you are a walker, then having a taller ellipse will work fine. It is more expensive for manufacturers to create a flat ellipse, so they try to cut cost by rounding the ellipse shape off. There is a cost difference, but it isn't substantial. If you are a woman, you will also need to think about the width of the foot pedals. Wide foot pedals can cause hip discomfort in women during prolonged use. This is due frankly due to women's narrow hips. (Really, I should get a few brownie points for that statement!) This is rarely a factor for men to consider since most of them have gigantic hips like mine.
Finally, what features should you consider like programs, electronics, etc? The answer I give to people is always the same. Whatever will keep you on the darn machine is what you should get. If you will notice that all the factors past the mundane "How much space" factors have focused on user comfort. This is because the perfect elliptical is the one that you will use consistently. For some people that is a $5,000 machine. Not because it's the only one comfortable, but if they spend that much they will darn sure use it. For other people $600 is plenty. I have rarely found that you have to spend more than $1,000 to get one that will be acceptable. Just using it consistently is the only measure of the perfect elliptical.

And still more from The Sayings of the Desert Fathers:
The same Abba Macarius while he was in Egypt discovered a man who owned a beast of burden engaged in plundering Macarius' goods. So he came up to the thief as if he was a stranger and he helped him to load the animal. He saw him off in great peace of soul, saying, "We have brought nothing into this world, and we cannot take anything out of the world." (1 Timothy 6:7) "The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; bless be the name of the Lord." (Job 1:21)
This is serious business, this matter of faith, of following Jesus when he tells the disciples and the crowds in Matthew 5:
38 "You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. ' 39 But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40 And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. 41 And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 42 Give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you." (Matthew 5:38-42 ESV)
I wouldn't have that kind of faith. I suspect most Christians wouldn't. But just remember, some followers of Jesus have taken non-resistance, and this command to give up everything, very seriously.
16 And behold, a man came up to him, saying, "Teacher, what good deed must I do to have eternal life?" 17 And he said to him, "Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. If you would enter life, keep the commandments." 18 He said to him, "Which ones?" And Jesus said, "You shall not murder, You shall not commit adultery, You shall not steal, You shall not bear false witness, 19 Honor your father and mother, and, You shall love your neighbor as yourself." 20 The young man said to him, "All these I have kept. What do I still lack?" 21 Jesus said to him, "If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me." 22 When the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. (Matthew 19:16-22 ESV)
