Leeds, England: England pacer Chris Woakes claimed five wickets while batsmen Joe Root and Eoin Morgan hit half-centuries to help the hosts defeat Pakistan by 54 runs in the fifth and final One Day International (ODI) at Headingley on Sunday.
Root made 84 and Morgan scored 76 as England made 351-9 in 50 overs before Woakes ensured a 4-0 whitewash in the rain-hit series, taking three wickets in the opening three overs to severely dent Pakistan's chances.
The tourists fought bravely after the setback but were eventually dismissed for 297 in 46.5 overs for their 10th consecutive ODI defeat.
Pakistan found themselves in trouble at 6-3 after Woakes' blistering opening spell, but Babar Azam (80) and Sarfraz Ahmad (97) stitched together a superb 146-run stand for the fourth wicket to give them a fighting chance in the contest.
However, another late collapse after both batsmen were run out meant that Pakistan ended the series empty-handed in their final preparation ahead of the World Cup in England and Wales beginning on May 30.
Woakes was the pick of the England bowlers, finishing with figures of 5-54 in his 10 overs.
England, who are one of the favourites to lift their first 50-over World Cup title, begin their campaign on the opening day when they take on South Africa at The Oval in London.


text: Zagam 1982 Report post Posted October 25, 2013 Well, I hope you guys are staying versed in other specs. Trends are showing Destruction picking up and taking off to the point that it can't be left unchecked. Here is some of the data... Source: http://raidbots.com/dpsbot/Spec_Score/10H/100/14/60/default/#1111111111111111111111100000000000 10m H Top 100 Parses DPS Overall Score: #1 (5 percentage points over #2) #1 Immerseus (67k over #2) #1 Norushen (2k over #2) #1 Sha of Pride (34k over #2, Fury Warriors, and 58k over #3) #1 Galakras (28k over #2, Elemental Shamans) #1 Dark Shamans (33k over #2, Affliction) #1 Spoils of Pandaria (29k over #2, Fury Warriors) #2 Iron Juggernaut (9k behind #1, Affliction) #2 Nazgrim (14k behind #1, Affliction, still well above average) #2 Malkorok (3k behind #1, Affliction, 11k over #3, Fury) #4 Thok (#1 is Affliction) #7 Fallen Protectors (#1 is Affliction by a landslide) NO DATA on Siegecrafter, Klaxxi, and Garrosh. Seeing that many fights where Destruction is that far ahead is discerning. When Destruction isn't the best, Affliction is, which is more concerning overall. Personally, I think it's because most of the good players gravitated away from Demonology in why that spec isn't performing well on Raidbots. Situation isn't the same with 25 man. Apparently in 25s, Fury Warriors are leaking to the top with the ocassional Destruction/Affliction appearance. Personally, I can't see how it's justifiable to leave Destruction where it's at. It's getting out of hand like Demo and Arcane did in ToT. Do NOT be surprised if you see a nerf coming in the next week or two. I'd estimate taking something away from Immolate. It is hitting so hard right now, it's unreal. Affliction is still creeping up and will continue to do so as heroic raiders gather more gear. Demonology is going to make a climb back into the ranks if a nerf is announced to either Affliction or Destruction. I'm going to be working on Demonology in the next couple of weeks because I think most skilled Warlocks are just avoiding the spec all together, especially without PBI. Also, for those that are like 'well, that's just Heroic top parses"...it's happening in normal, too. It's happening everywhere, all the time. I think Destruction is as overpowered in PvE as Warriors are in PvP right now. TL;DR: Brace yourself, I think nerfs are on the horizon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Execution Factor
The Execution Factor: It was designed as propaganda to deter would-be criminals. Instead interviews on death row have become China's new TV hit
The glamorous Ms Ding conducts face-to-face interviews with the prisoners, who have often committed especially gruesome crimes. Her subjects sit in handcuffs and leg chains, guarded by warders. She warms up with anodyne questions about favourite films or music, but then hectors the prisoners about the violent details of their crimes and eventually wrings apologies out of them.
She promises to relay final messages to family members, who are usually not allowed to visit them on death row. The cameras keep rolling as the condemned say a farewell message and are led away to be killed by firing squad or lethal injection.
The case that has drawn the largest number of viewers so far is that of Bao Rongting, an openly gay man who was condemned to death for murdering his mother and then violating her dead body.

Re: The Execution Factor
I am all for Pay Per View specials for executions with the money going to the victims and their families.
All too often only the murderer is profiled and the victims forgotton.
I would have the show showing the lives of the people killed. Show then in photos and let people get a sense of knowing them. Then show the crime scenes and the overwhelming evidence including DNA against the perp. Finally follow the perp for their last meal and execution.
I would imagine certain murderer's execution would come close to Super Bowl viewing numbers.

Re: The Execution Factor
Some shows are doing that now. HBO once had a victim's mother meet her daughter's killer, at the mother's request. I cannot recall the victim's name. I believe it was his excuse, which we have heard often, "he was angry and she was in the wrong place at the wrong time". I also believe he was using drugs. The woman wasn't reckless or putting herself in danger.
I like the prison inmate interview shows and, "Parole Board". I find them interesting, in addition to the real crime and medical shows. No CSI bull! The only one from that series I do like is SVU.
There is a new prison interview show premiering in our area Friday, but, I can't recall on which network.
I think George Carlin came up with that idea several years ago. The 24 Hour Execution Network! Hell, I'd watch that, but, I don't watch the Super Bowl!
Actually, dynamo, they did follow Karla Faye Tucker to her execution, in TX, of course, and I'm almost positive a man was followed. I'll have to research that one, but, I seem to remember a dark haired 40-ish male on Death Row being followed until his final day.
Aileen Wournos did alot of extensive interviews up to her death, but, I don't think they talked with any of her victims, to my knowledge.

Hour to spare yesterday afternoon so decided to try out the newly discovered unofficial gull feeding station along the promenade in Newport, for a spot of ring reading. Tide was low so there were plenty of birds loafing or picking their way through the assortment of muddy tyres, TV sets and hefty tree trunks that are a feature of the River Usk when waters out.
First up was a single great black backed gull doing what comes naturally. At the chosen spot I broke out open some stale bread and soon attracted a scrum of feral pigeon and 30 + black headed gull none of which carried any rings. Larger gulls seemed more difficult to pull in but eventually several immature lesser black-blacked and a single adult herring gull alighted on the sturdy promenade fencing. One immature lesser black backed gull arrived carrying a black colour ring was yellow lettering. Thankfully I managed a couple of images before the bird was disturbed by a person asking me if I had some spare change - the bird failed to return.

On October 9th, we marked sixty years since the death of Pope Pius XII. It means that we have labored under Modernism for these sixty years, and have watched with horror the disintegration of everything that made our Faith beautiful: Catholic doctrine, good and holy priests, an abundance of devout and zealous religious brothers and nuns, Catholic schools, Catholic universities, Catholic seminaries teeming with holy seminarians aspiring to the priesthood, the traditional Latin Mass, traditional sacraments, the Legion of Decency, religious habits, priests in cassocks and Roman collars, magnificent churches, elaborate ceremonies, Gregorian chant and other beautiful church music, discipline, orthodoxy, modest dress, good morals. I could go on. What I describe is the world of my childhood which, at the time, I took for granted, but which I loved and cherished. Continue reading
Bishop Fellay's interview

First, let me explain what Pelagianism is.
It is a fifth century heresy concocted by an English priest, Pelagius, which held to the denial of original sin and to the idea that we can go to heaven for being merely naturally good. He denied the necessity of actual grace in order to maintain a good moral life, and to avoid hell. Actual grace was merely a help, but not a necessity. Needless to say, this heresy was condemned.

"The end of Roman Catholicism"
A recent article appeared on the site entitled Settimo Cielo (Seventh Heaven) which is operated by Sandro Magister, a well-known figure in the Novus Ordo conservative world. The article is written by a certain Roberto Pertici, professor of contemporary history at the University of Bergamo in Italy. Continue reading
Destroying the papacy
In an interview about the Rome Conference, Roberto de Mattei, professor of history and well-known in Novus Ordo conservative circles, made this statement about the conference: "I appreciated the recent interview in which Raymond Cardinal Burke affirmed that we find ourselves faced with an intolerable situation, and it is licit to criticize the Pope when he propagates errors and heresies. [emphasis added] He also said:
Sacred Tradition remains the criterion for discerning that which is Catholic and that which is not, causing the visible marks of the Church to shine. Tradition is the faith of the Church that the Popes have maintained and transmitted throughout the course of the centuries. But Tradition comes before the Pope and not the Pope before Tradition.
The Rome Conference
On April 7th a conference took place in Rome. The title of the conference was: "Catholic Church, where are you going?" The speakers were the usual do-nothing and hand-wringing Novus Ordo conservatives, such as the two remaining signers of the Dubia (the list of questions put to Bergoglio about the scandalous and heretical document Amoris Lætitia), that is, Novus Ordo Cardinals Burke and Brandmuller. Also speaking was Novus Ordo Bishop Athanasius Schneider, who has made the Novus Ordo conservative rounds nearly everywhere. There were others. About four hundred persons attended.
You would think that, in the wake of Bergoglio's public denial of hell, the speakers would have said: "The sedevacantists are right. Bergoglio is a heretic. Vatican II has all but destroyed Catholicism in the world." Instead, the theme seemed to be one of why there is confusion in the Church. Confusion? The only ones that are confused are the Novus Ordo conservatives, since they choose to be confused. For the Modernists are not confused; they know what they are doing. The sedevacantists are not confused; we know what the problem is and how to solve it. It is these conservatives who want to solve this problem in the Church without becoming sedevacantists. This is true even though sedevacantism has overpowering support on the part of Sacred Theology, holy Doctors of the Church, and eminent theologians. Beyond that, and more importantly, the vacancy of the Roman See is a conclusion which is demanded by the indefectibility of the Church, which pertains to faith. It is the faith itself which draws the conclusion that the Vatican II "popes" cannot be true popes, since the faith requires us to believe that the Church's authority cannot, on a universal level, promulgate false teachings, evil disciplines, and false liturgical practices.
We are now fifty-two years since the close of Vatican II in 1965, and these people are asking where the Church is going? I remember attending lectures at Fordham University in the late 1960's where they were asking the same question.
A frequently asked question
People ask me from time to time whether it is permissible to go to confession to a validly ordained Novus Ordo priest.
There are some traditionalist priests, although sedevacantists, who give an affirmative answer to this question. They allow it in case of necessity. They argue that since the Novus Ordo priest is not excommunicated, and does not belong to a declared non- Catholic sect, Canon Law admits that he could be approached for sacraments.

Santa Cruz outlet Good Times interviewed Rado about touring and the new album:
"We have an unpredictable aspect to our show. We have tons of energy on stage, so much that we don't have any energy to do anything else during the day when we're on tour. We're just completely exhausted all the time," says multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Rado.
There's greater musical diversity on the album. The songs bounce around to every conceivable sub-genre of rock 'n' roll from the '60s and '70s (psychedelic, doom-metal, soft-rock, AM pop tunes, space-jams, glam-rock and country-rock) and digs into the campiness of it in a new way that's both playful and endearing.
"Back then, they weren't trying to make a cheesy song, they were trying to make a good song—I think it's the same mindset that we have," Rado says. "We were theater kids raised on show tunes. It's built into our blood—that campiness. A lot of my inspiration for my piano comes from show tunes."
"We just wanted to do more. We wanted to show different sides of our music," Rado says. "We wanted it to start out lush and then go into complete trash. That was kind of the idea."

About —
Titled after the rural road where Lyn Carter lives and works, 11th Line explores one of the most fundamental textile design elements – the stripe – and its graphic relationship to natural and built landscapes. Carter's highly crafted sewn sculptures, drawings on paper and digitally printed fabric are poetic translations of the rhythms and patterns of personal space and vernacular architectures that are part of her daily experience. In preparation for this exhibition, the artist researched a range of textiles from the Textile Museum of Canada's international collection that highlight the complex spatial organization of lines, bands and stripes.
Lyn Carter's processes and materials are varied and without limits. She combines handwork with digital scanning and printing to render multifaceted elements – from 3D printed plastics that are scale model stand-ins for site-specific sculptures, to delicate drawings that are digitally translated onto large scale, industrially manufactured textiles. These digital applications and sophisticated output systems are modes of visual and physical translation that are at ease with the artist's manual processes of drawing and sculpting – skills that are core to her practice.
Of course it is not only in the visual arts that new technologies are merging with longstanding hand skills and processes, extending human labour and imagination: plowed rows in a farm field are increasingly worked by tractors equipped with GPS (Global Positioning System) devices, offering unprecedented precision and efficiencies. It is the lines of these extraordinarily even furrows, ubiquitous in her rural environs, along with soft field edges and meandering road grids that inspire and inform her fluid images of the striped landscape.
With a practice that spans over 30 years, Lyn Carter's work combines art and craft, site-specificity and sculptural form to fashion new imaginative terrain. She has exhibited extensively in galleries and museums across Canada and internationally and is represented in public and private collections throughout North America.
The exhibition is organized by the Textile Museum of Toronto with the support of the Anne Angus Contemporary Program Fund.
Read an Essay on Lyn Carter by Peter Legris – "What is the meaning of Lyn Carter's stripes?" (2018).
Biography —
Lyn Carter is an artist based near Grand Valley, Ontario. Born in Toronto in 1954, she graduated with an AOCA from the Ontario College of Art in 1978 and York University (MFA) in 1994. Lyn has exhibited across Canada, the U.S.A., Australia, Britain, Spain, Mexico and China. In 2008 she was commissioned to create a major site-specific work for the Third Guangzhou Triennial in Guangzhou, China. Most recently she was invited to exhibit in the Hangzhou Triennial of Fiber Art 2016, Zhejiang Art Museum, Hangzhou, China. Lyn Carter teaches sculpture in the Art and Art History Program, a joint program between Sheridan College and the University of Toronto Mississauga.

Dan's Thames Path Challenge
12 September 2018
We are truly grateful to Dan Merton for taking on the Thames Path Challenge on Saturday the 8th of September to raise funds for our branch.
Starting from Bishop's Park next to Putney Bridge at 8:30am in the morning, Dan set off on his epic 50km walk passing through leafy Kew and Richmond before reaching the halfway point at Hampton Court after 6 hours. From there Dan continued his route through Walton-on-Thames, Shepperton, Egham, and Staines, finally reaching the finishing line at Runnymede 14 hours later at 10:34pm.
What a fantastic achievement, and not surprising that the following day Dan replied to our congratulatory Twitter message:
"Thanks. I can hardly move today 😂 The challenge nearly broke me but it's all for a good cause and the meows 🐱 I will be feline fine in a few days hopefully."
To date, Dan has raised £1,137.50 in sponsorship, including a £500 pound for pound donation from his employers Legal & General.
But, if you think he deserves more after putting in such a pawsome effort, you can donate at
or send a cheque payable to Cats Protection Horsham to the branch address at PO Box 466 Horsham RH12 1XN - just write "Dan's Walk" on the back of the cheque.
Last year, Dan walked the Thames Bridges Challenge which raised £1,136.50 for us and together with this year's figure means he has raised almost £2,300 single-handed (or should that be footed?). This is a tremendous amount which will certainly have helped a lot of cats in our care, he really is a cat champion.
If reading this has inspired you to take on a challenge to help raise funds for us head over to
, where there are all sorts of opportunities from walks and runs to international experiences which you can take part in.

The air exchanger is used to exhaust excess humid air in winter. Therefore, it is normal to see fog or ice on windows during cold weather. Many factors may contribute to this problem, such as: windows poor insulation quality, heating temperature, barrier in front of the windows (lack of ventilation near the windows caused by blinds, curtains, etc.), dominant winds, drastic changes in outside temperature, etc.

IMPURE WORSHIP "Impure Worship"
Release Date: January, 2012
Label: Co-financed by Nuclear Winter Records
Coming from the bowels of contemporary Athenian hell, bestial black/deathsters IMPURE WORSHIP are a fine new addition to the local scene's ammunition. One year and a half after introducing themselves to us with a noteworthy "Goathorns" demo tape, the time has come to unleash their next self-titled EP attack via Nuclear Winter Records.
First thing one would notice is that blackmetal elements have given way to a more death metal approach similar maybe to BLACK WITCHERY or BLASPHEMOPHAGHER; a change that would hold some risks of being just another "noisy" goat metal band that plays the same riff through the whole record. On the contrary though, the tracks have been worked hard to become distinctive entities, where guitars hold their pace to create a swamp-like atmosphere and then burst again using the primitive power of thrash to spread their holocaust. Listen to "Praise The Goat" for example, with its SLAYER-like solo cutting it in half, then the riffs dive into old school doom/death sub-levels before exploding into what would be a crowd-pleaser blast-beat enhanced ending. And closing this text, I would be without any excuse if didn't make a special mention for some of the most persuasive, aggressive (but recognizable) vocals, this time handled by Fallen Angel of Fornication (guitars/bass).
Times have been hard in this country lately, but hard times lead to sinister rhymes. So, for those of you still devoted to bestial metal sound, this is a record you don't want to miss. A promising new power seems to be rising…

What is the best way to secure Adtran router from external DNS request?tincg_cw Mar 29, 2017 7:40 PM
I had a situation where I had TA916e that was once being delivered 3 T1s as the WAN. The TA916e was originally feeding both a PBX with 8 FXS ports and feeding a NV3448 for the data side of my customer's network. The carrier switched to an Ethernet Handoff on site (Adtran 818), so I reconfigured the TA916e with public's assigned to both Eth0/1 and Eth0/2. The client changed to a HPBX VoIP setup so we no longer needed connectivity to the PBX via the 8 FXS ports. Essentially, the TA916e was a straight pass through allowing me to route the Customer Public IPs to the NV3448 which providing NAT/Firewalling for the customer's voice and data networks.
Our plans were to eventually collapse the network and get rid of the TA916e, but that had not happened, yet. A few weeks ago, the customer started complaining of drops and voice quality issues. We started reviewing our monitoring and confirmed the issue. It got pretty bad where we were seeing double digit packet loss at peak times during the day. Every time we called the carrier they would say the packet loss was due to congestion on the underlying 3 bonded t1s driving the Carrier's Adtran 818.
We started testing after hours and still noticed the packet loss after 5:30pm when no one was at the client location. Monitoring showed that even at these off hour times that ~1 Mbps was still being used consistently on the circuit. We had the carrier do intrusive testing on the T1s last night and all three were clean. We did some other testing today and basically ruled out the carrier's network. Tonight after hours, I disabled the internal port on the TA916e so that nothing coming from the NV3448 would even be flowing out. Our monitoring still showed ~1-1.5Mbps being utilized on the TA916 Internet facing connection. This time, reviewing our Netflow monitoring on the TA916e showed a ton of traffic inbound to the public IP of the TA916e with DST Port 53 UDP. Cleaned up the config and made sure all old sip programming was out. Also disabled Allow DNS Proxy on the box which gets to the root of my question/post. Sorry for the long back story.
I had assumed (possibly naively) that the netvanta/total access routers (AOS for that matter) were not responding externally to DNS requests if DNS Proxy was enabled. Take a standard branch office situation where the adtran netvanta router is the edge device providing firewalling/nat/dhcp/dns to the client LAN. The router has a static Public IP on the WAN interface. I enable Allow DNS Proxy and typically also Allow DNS Lookup on the box. I typically use OpenDNS or Google DNS IPs that the box queries for DNS.
Do I need to do anything else to properly protect the router from being externally queried for DNS? I'm typically only allowing 443 and ICMP on the WAN interface except for known public ips like for management purposes.
I often protect SSH by adding "ip access-group BLOCK in" statement to the WAN interface. Do I need to do something like this to block DNS queries of the WAN interface of the router except for OpenDNS or Google DNS IPs? Does the router protected itself already from this kind of scenario?
I believe this is kind of like a refection attack, but not sure. Suggestions or can someone set me straight here?

Everyone loves a promotion, right? But be careful what you wish for! Every time we are given a new role with increased responsibilities, the transition can be rough, and the new skills now required can feel daunting according to Huffington Post, Forbes.com, and a variety of Harvard Business Review articles.
Any shift in role involves more than simply adding new tasks to one's daily routine; it actually calls upon us to expand our sense of self. When roles change, leaders encounter challenges that are usually unfamiliar and not part of their self- concept. Leadership coaching can help executives manage the inevitable challenges involved in role transition, promotions, attention to long range planning and productive team work.
When leaders are able to walk their talk, people listen and are likely to follow, improving the levels of enthusiasm, trust, and team effectiveness throughout a team or organization. Leaders get even better by recognizing that leadership comes from who you are: your own values, unique strengths, overall well-being, and the ability to inspire hope in yourself and others.
There is a direct link between emotion and successful communication. And in day to day situations, as well as in times of crisis, it's the leaders who can use a wide range of emotions effectively who gain the most support from their audience.
When it comes to building your personal brand, a coach can be a powerful resource who can help you get out of your own way, stand out, and take action to achieve the things that are truly important to you, that's why in Stetson University's Executive MBA program, coaching as an integral part of the curriculum throughout the 18-month program experience.
Your coach can help you to:
- Get clear about your goals. Your company may be pulling you in one direction, while your manager is giving you different advice based on other criteria. Your coach will help you determine what's really important to you and help you stay focused on that.
- Keep you on track and moving forward toward new levels of achievement by identifying blind spots. They help you figure out what you don't know, and they clue you in to things you may not be able to see.
- Know the difference between weaknesses you need to fix and those that are best left as they are. This can help you invest time and energy only in the most fruitful opportunities.
- Get from point A to B faster than you could on your own, helping you differentiate yourself from the pack and advance your career at a quicker clip.
After you work with a coach for a while, you can start to adopt those powerful questioning techniques, which helps you become a better listener. This is just one of the many ways you can integrate a coaching style into your own leadership approach.
Simply put, a coach will help you stoke your success. How much is that worth to you?

WASHINGTON — After 150 meetings, six hearings and one presidential endorsement, U.S. Rep. Bill Shuster says his plan to privatize air-traffic control is ready to take flight.
The Bedford County Republican reintroduced a modified plan Wednesday. He expects the House Transportation Committee, which he chairs, to vote next week.
"This is about unleashing American innovation and putting the traveling public ahead of the dysfunction in Washington," Shuster told reporters Wednesday.
He says the bill has more support than ever, including from President Donald Trump, who threw the weight of the White House behind the measure this month during what his administration dubbed "Infrastructure Week."
Dubbed the 21st Century Aviation Innovation, Reform & Reauthorization Act, the bill gained more support when Shuster carved out a new exemption from user fees for general aviators — that is for pilots not flying scheduled large commercial jetliners.
But Shuster is still missing one crucial thing: Senate support.
No senator has emerged as a potential sponsor for a companion bill in the upper chamber, and there's little support for one among members of the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee.
"It feels like the Senate is always in that position no matter what the issue is," Shuster said.
But he said he expects the upper chamber's support to grow once the bill moves through the House.
"The idea is so good on the merits that we need to walk senators through it. [Lawmakers] don't engage on legislation until they see it moving down the pike somehow. If we get it out of committee and on the House floor I think you'll start to see senators getting engaged," Shuster said.
The committee is working toward passage by Sept. 30, when the Federal Aviation Administration's authorization expires. If it isn't passed by then, a short-term extension is likely. That's already happened 23 times in the last five years, creating uncertainty and making it difficult for long-term planning of air-traffic control projects.
Government shutdowns and sequestration also have made long-term planning difficult, motivating Shuster to turn air-traffic control into a self-funded entity whose funding would be unaffected by lawmakers' action or inaction.
He said his plan would reduce delays, increase efficiency, leverage new technology, ease the burden on taxpayers and enable a more stable stream of funding to pay for the NextGen modernization program.
Shuster's bill also includes a provision prohibiting airlines from involuntarily removing passengers from planes once they are seating. And it directs the Department of Transportation to clarify language relating to compensation for passengers who volunteer to give up their seats.
Major airlines support the legislation, but groups including FlyersRights.org, the largest nonprofit organization representing air travelers, have said the proposal would disrupt modernization projects already underway and that it amounts to a "political handout" to an industry with a track record of treating customers badly.
Shuster said the transition would be gradual, and that the board would decide which current projects to continue and which to abandon. Projects that are substantially along the way would likely continue, he said.
The FAA's air-traffic control assets would transfer to the nonprofit spinoff at no charge.
"Those don't belong to the FAA. Those don't belong to the government. They belong to the American people. Those are assets the American people have already paid for," Shuster said, defending his proposal. "If you charge this entity [billions], that's going to have to be put into user fees so the public will have to pay twice."
Shuster is optimistic about his legislation's prospects.
Already one key opponent has reversed course: Sam Graves, R-Mo., a pilot who voted against an earlier iteration of the bill because it didn't do enough to protect the interest of general aviation. He came on board after Shuster amended his bill to exempt general aviators from user fees and to give them more representation on the board that would govern the nonprofit entity.
But that exemption means a bigger burden will be passed on to airlines and, ultimately, the passengers they serve. And that concerns Paul Hudson, president of FlyersRights.org and a longtime member of the FAA's Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee.
Hudson also is concerned that passengers will have no representation on the board of governors that would run the nonprofit corporation. The Shuster bill calls for the corporation's 13 board members to be nominated by cargo air carriers, passenger carriers, regional carriers, business aviation, air-traffic controllers, airports, commercial pilots and the Department of Transportation.
"The consumer that receives the services is being excluded, not only having no control but having no say over the whole operation or the financing of the system," Hudson said.
He said user fees are essentially a tax.
"Under this scheme, a corporation would have the power to tax, and that tax would, of course, get passed onto the passenger. It may be higher or it may be lower" than the 21 percent of the ticket price the government currently collects. "But the thing is that this is in effect taxation without representation."
Shuster said he expects the new system will ultimately reduce costs through efficiencies and better technology that will allow for more direct routes, thereby decreasing fuel costs. A two-thirds vote will be required for the board to increase fees.

One of the products I have recently received for a review is a SIWU garlic peeler and mincer. This is a very colorful, beautiful product that I have tested out today.
For my zucchini pasta recipe that I just wrote about in my previous blog post I needed some fresh minced garlic, and I thought of using this mincer to try it out. The whole process took quite a bit of time.
I first had to wash the device because I always wash everything that I get from the store, I don't just use it straight away. This particular mincer has a cap, a separator, a blade, and then a fairly bulky pushing type part mechanism. I just took the cap off and started washing with soap. My dishsoap got everywhere! It went right to all the nook and crannies of the mechanism, and the spring that makes it all work. I did get it washed, now hopefully it won't rust on me!
Then I went ahead with mincing. I put the garlic as it was under the press. I did not take the peels off at first. I started chopping the garlic, and it didn't really help much with the peels. I should have probably continued, and let the device get the peels off by itself, but I stopped, got he garlic out, and peeled it myself. I am not sure if this device is capable of peeling or not, I have to test it more!
After the peeling was done, I put the garlic under the press. Bang, bang, bang a few times, and the job was done! I liked the way the garlic looked after it was cut up by the blades! It was cut in a bit of uneven fashion, as you would expect a machine that chops up stuff to do, but I liked it. I liked the texture of garlic that I got after using this device. It was well cut up, partly mushy, with the juices and the flesh sort of mixed together. I like this kind of texture when I am cooking.
I know this great device is also good for chopping nuts, and onions. I still have to try this chopper on those! I usually don't like to chop my nuts just with a knife, so this device will come in handy. I think I can use it for situations when I need to mince a lot of garlic and onion, or mince a lot of nuts.
I think I will give 5 stars to this device for efficiency. However, cleanup is a bit of a drag with it. I have to try to wash it in the dishwasher. Not sure if it is dishwasher safe, but normally anything can be washed on the top rack, so I'll try that. Other than that, this is one of those things that could make your chore of mincing and chopping more of a cool time spent activity.
This device sells for $15.81.
I received this product free from Love Park Products in exchange for my unbiased review. I was not compensated for my review and all my opinions are my own. One may or may not have the same opinion as myself when reading this. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255: Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.

As many homeowners prepare to put their homes on the market, they often realize to get more "bang for their buck" they may need to do some remodeling. Especially in a market like we have today were buyers are wanting more for their money!
According to Realtor magazine, the average cost of a kitchen remodel is $52,000 and the average cost of a bathroom remodel is $13,000. Although these projects will likely increase your resale value, they are pricey.
On the other end of the spectrum, there is plenty one can do to increase curb appeal without breaking the bank! Apply a fresh coat of paint inside and out. I would even go as far as hiring a color consultant for a couple of hundred bucks to make sure you get the best colors for your home. I have seen to many times were people "think" they know color and in fact, they don't. It's not worth it. Just hire a professional.
Over time, exterior trim around your windows, doors and along the roof line may have become warped. Get that replaced. And while you are at, get a termite report and prepare to do the work it takes to get it cleared. Buyers love buying a place that has a cleared pest report. And you as the Seller can typically get the work completed by a contractor for 1/2 the price that is stated on the pest report.
You can also do some energy efficient work like change out the light bulbs, replace the water heater and seal around the windows. All of these minor changes will allow you to increase the value of your home and make it more appealing to buyers.

With Christmas fast approaching you are probably getting very concerned about your training and how you can maintain the amount of exercise you did through the year during a very busy December month. High calorie treats are always on offer and Christmas parties make it very tempting to skip a workout for an extra round with the lads or gals. However small things can make a HUGE difference during the festive period. Burning just an extra 100 calories, each day can add up to a whopping 700 extra cals a week and over 3000 calories in a month.
Therefore today, we are going to share with you 5 ways to burn an extra 100 calories or more.
Tip #1: Increase duration
Change from a 30min class to 45mins: This extra 15mins of exercise can make all the difference. After 30mins of smashing out your favourite Qmax class your wrecked and rightly so – if you stuck round for an extra 15mins giving all your effort, your metabolism will go into OVERDRIVE, burning well over another 100 calories.
Tip #2: Hit the treadmill
Following this same principle, you have just finished MIAMI ABS and your super excited with your new found 6 pack, instead of walking out of the gym – head to the treadmills and smash out a few sprints, it won't take you long. Think 45sec of sprinting with the same amount of rest, do 5 sets and watch your 6 pack bludge!!!
Tip #3: Do more circuit work
If right now you're only doing 1 Qmax class to supplement your weights training, throw in another 1-2 Qmax sessions a week. Motivation to do the same old exercise routine dips during the festive period. The weather is usually superb around this time with other temptations arising which you can't say no to. So, if your motivation is waning, get into a class and let one of our amazing training put you through your paces. Circuit training will burn 100 calories in just 12mins!
Tip #4: Swim!!
What do us aussies do a lot of during the summer??… No, I wasn't thinking about drinking VBs, I was thinking about spending days upon days at the beach. Its got to be Australia's greatest past time. Anyways instead of just relaxing on the sand working on the tan, hop in the water and go for a swim! Swimming is a great full body workout, with only 13mins of swimming at a moderate pace burning just over 100 calories. If your keen to up the ante, swimming at a high intensity will see you burn 100 calories in only 9 minutes!
Tip #5: Be conscious of what goes into your gob!
So, you have just finished Christmas lunch and you feel like your going to explode, that how full you are. Suddenly dessert comes out and somehow find a tiny bit of extra space to fit some more food in! DON'T! While this tip won't burn you 100 calories, it most certainly will save you 100 calories from unnecessary eating, which during the holiday season is very easy to do!
So, there you have it guys, my 5 top tips to ensure you don't cake on the kilos over Christmas but actually lose some! Hopefully when Jan 1st rolls around and its time to make a new year's resolution yours doesn't include needing to lose ridiculous amounts of weight!

Chandler Kinney Aims To Inspire Young Girls In This Way
Chandler Kinney radiates on the cover of Glitter magazine's newest issue.
The 17-year-old Lethal Weapon actress and activist opened up in the issue on the ways she hopes to inspire young girls.
"I hope to inspire all the females who follow me and my career to remember that persistence pays off," she says. "I understand that, despite advancements in the feminist agenda to achieve a society in which there is no gender inequality, it can still be difficult to operate as a woman in today's society."
Chandler continues that "on our show, every female in the cast is portrayed in a strong and intelligent manner, and I'm incredibly proud and honored to be contributing to positive representation in media."
"I hope we stand as a reminder that it is very possible to achieve your dreams so long as you never give up."

This contest was like picking out the biggest Christmas present and opening to find it filled with progressively smaller boxes and the engagement ring box filled with a rabbit turd. My expectations were high going in but my hopes were crushed after tearing off all the natural casing wrapping paper. I had set a goal/ birthday present to myself that I would eat 50 hot dogs on my birthday then go out and celebrate taking in all the fruity fishbowl cocktails Minneapolis had to offer. I knew after practice that I was good for at least 50 but it would depend on the day and the dogs. Preparation and abilities may be peaking but if you wake up feeling groggy and unmotivated and eat leathery encased steaks there's really not much you can do. A true competitor will eat at his top level no matter the circumstances. Until recently I didn't quite understand this. Also, practice is useless if you can't motivate yourself to carry over lessons and skills learned. Anyone can look good in batting practice off of a 46 year old lobbing in rainbows. I've hit Cecil Fielder-esqe home runs in practice but does anyone really want to hear me talk about that after I fail in competition? My outlook on practice now is you practice so that on bad days you still produce and have a good showing. And on a good day you can do extraordinary things. You may even surprise yourself on a good day and wonder if a feat could ever be recreated by yourself or another. One should never bank on having a good day to carry you over the threshold. I've done that in the past but too many things are up in the air, it's a game of hot dog roulette with a ¾ full pack of hot dogs in the chamber.
The only thing in the air on June 6th 2009 was a chilling rain and an air temperature hovering below 50 degrees. Not to mention a lingering smell of nitrates and rancid garlic. Hot and not humid are my preferred temperature because room temperature at 90 degrees is better than room temperature at 55. Plus frigid weather puts a damper on the loosening up and circulation in the body. I started out slow and progressed to a tortoise crawl. I wouldn't have caught the napping hare at that pace. It could possibly have been the worst eating performance of my career; I hit the wall harder than a rookie and have nothing special to show for it. Qualifiers are the perfect practice and should not be taken lightly; I go into all with the intent of kicking some smoked pork butt. I don't have the gene to half ass it, it's all of nothing. You are eating the food that will be before you on a larger/ national stage at a later date and it's best to take it serious and go all out. Talk of this qualifier sickens me, getting over zealous and suggesting the sponsors assure all the dogs are warm and fresh led to a complete meltdown of dog quality. They sat in the warmer for hours rendering the skin inedible; I have no one to blame but myself.
Aside from the dogs I had a pleasant night out on the town, hitting up the bars in Minneapolis that serve fish bowls and have members of my favorite band(what I listen to during contests); Dillinger four as employees or owners. A lot is owed to my better half for setting it up. And thanks are due for all that braved the elements and the rotten noxious odors that crop dusted and encompassed all areas around me for the remainder of the night. Hot dogs are the never-ending gift. Make sure to check out espn at noon eastern this July 4th for all the coverage of the Nathans famous contest.

Experimental Study of Hybrid Cooled Heat Exchanger
Tsao, Han-Chuan
Radermacher, Reinhard
MetadataShow full item record
A test system for a hybrid cooled heat exchanger was designed, and the test facility was constructed based on ASHRAE Standard 41.2-1987. A conventional air-cooled tube-fin heat exchanger was tested with and without application of wetting water. The baseline tests were conducted to investigate the heat exchanger performance improvement by applying evaporative cooling technology. The heat exchanger capacity and air side pressure drop were measured while varying operating conditions and heat exchanger inclination angles. The results show the heat exchanger capacity increased by 170% with application of the hybrid cooling technology, but the air side pressure drop increased by 130%. Additional research investigating air fan power was also conducted, which increased 120% from the dry condition to the hybrid cooled condition. In summary, the potential for improving the heat exchanger performance by applying hybrid cooling is shown in this research.

Marketers who need information on skincare products of all types, including sun screens and other protective products, may want to get Packaged Facts' recent "Skincare Products in the U.S." report.
Packaged Facts estimates that the skincare market, including both mass and prestige, will reach $7.2 billion by 2010, driven in part by expected double-digit growth of anti-aging products, which is likely to become the second-largest category behind hand and body lotions.
Baby boomers still are the core consumer market for skincare products, say experts at Packaged Facts, who add there also is great potential for skincare sales in more targeted areas such as Gen-Xers, who are beginning to enter their 40s.
"High tech skincare is booming," is one of the conclusions of this Packaged Facts report. The report also notes two growing trends: consumers are tending to use more cosmeceuticals, and medical practitioners are exerting a growing influence on skincare product development.
"Skincare Products in the U.S."offers a variety of sales and market share data, including factors that will impact growth in the market; corporate profiles of major marketers; an overview of the advertising, promotional and retail universe; consumer usage and demographic data; and an analysis of new product trends.
The report, which can be found on http://www.packagedfacts.com, makes predictions and recommendations regarding the future of the skincare market, and pinpoints ways current and prospective marketers can capitalize on current trends and take advantage of new ones. The report also includes information on the regulatory environment for producers of skincare products.

A northwestern Ontario First Nation is asking a court to review the issuance of mineral exploration permits by the province's Ministry of Northern Development and Mines.
The permits were granted in 2016 to Landore Resources Inc., to drill for gold in an area that Eabametoong First Nation's leadership describes as culturally and environmentally sensitive.
A two-day hearing into the matter began Feb. 7 in Superior Court in Toronto.
According to a statement from Eabametoong, the permits were issued despite concerns raised by community members about impacts to the environment and aboriginal and treaty rights.
Chief Elizabeth Atlookan said "there are burial grounds, birthplaces, cabins used by our families, sensitive spawning areas, and rich hunting grounds throughout the area staked."
The First Nation alleges that a government consultation process was cut short while substantive issues were still under discussion.
Nishnawbe Aski Nation, the organization representing 49 First Nations across northern Ontario, issued a news release endorsing Eabametoong's challenge.
Grand Chief Alvin Fiddler said, "First Nation inherent and treaty rights supersede any federal and provincial legislation enacted without our free, prior and informed consent, and we support Chief Elizabeth Atlookan and council for defending their homelands."
In a statement emailed to tbnewswatch.com, the MNDM said, "Ontario is committed to encouraging mineral exploration and development in a manner consistent with the constitutional recognition of existing Aboriginal and Treaty rights, including the duty to consult."
However, the ministry would not comment specifically on the issue raised by Eabametoong, because it is before the courts.

Most of the brands I manage are Startups with a limited marketing budget, more often than not, I start marketing their brand using free services such as MailChimp, HootSuite etc. We needed a CRM and our options were AgileCRM, ZohoCRM, Bitrix24, and Hubspot.
The requirements were simple, it had to be free, it had to play well with other integrations or at the very least have several Zap options on Zapier, it needed to allow multiple users, at least five people including myself, it needed to support tasks planning and scheduling. Another major need was that it needed to have an option for us to see all our interaction with each lead and track their lifecycle.
Other features which we wanted but could live without were; email tracking, inbuilt email function, email campaigns and the ability to create and share documents within the software. Bitrix24 was a close second but Hubspot email tracking feature using Sidekick, and it's Clearbit integration through Zapier was a win.
Another reason while I consider Hubspot CRM an investment to startups and small businesses are the inbuilt sales tools such as: Template, Sequences, Documents, Prospects, Meetings and Call Queue. Hubspot makes it easy for new users to acquaint themselves with the software through the inbuilt mini-tutorial.
The simple and clean dashboard and organized tabs/dropdown options makes it easy to navigate the CRM. For features such as live messages and Reports, you'd need to upgrade to sales PRO at $50 monthly, but they offer a 30-day trial.
Email tracking feature Integrates with a wide range of marketing and sales softwares Task planning and management In-built Sales tools Ease of use with clean UI Low cost
I think Startups and small businesses who are looking into low-cost CRM softwares must try this first and perhaps Bitrix24

My favorite local grocery store, Wegmans, has a magazine they sell (and sometimes give out for free!) that features recipes with stuff you can very handily (is that a word?) buy at their stores. This is one of those recipes. So where it says "Mediterranean Bar", that just tells you where to find it in their store. This recipe has possibilities. I do like the combination of the bruschetta topping and the feta cheese. In fact, the next day for lunch I had toasted Italian bread topped with those two items, and it was awesome. The mushroom just wasn't doing it for me. It was so juicy, TOO juicy, in fact. I almost had to tie my hair back to eat the thing! Also, the ciabatta bread is just too dang hard. But I will keep buying the bruschetta topping. I served this sandwich with some fries.

Portobello Mushroom Burger
(Wegmans Menu magazine)
4 (about 3.4 lb) portobello mushroom caps
1 tbsp + 8 tsp Wegmans Basting Oil, divided
Wegmans Seat Salt to taste
Fresh ground pepper to taste
1 cup bruschetta (Mediterranean Bar), drained, divided
4 tbsp (about 1 oz) crumbled Valbreso French Feta (Cheese shop), divided
1 loaf Ciabatta bread, cut into 2 x 3″ sections and halved
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
1. Place mushrooms, gill-side up, on a baking sheet lightly oiled with 1 tbsp basting oil. Drizzle each cap with 2 tsp basting oil; season to taste with salt and pepper.
2. Bake 18-20 min., until gills are shiny and moist.
3. Add 1.4 cup bruschetta on each cap; top each with 1 tbsp cheese. Bake 10 min. until cheese begins to brown.

Only appointed in June, Lopetegui is fighting for his job after a poor run of form has seen them fail to win any of their last four La Liga games, losing three of them.
But while ex-Chelsea boss Antonio Conte appears to be the overwhelming favourite to take the reins, a report from The Sun claims that Real still prefer Pochettino after failing to attract him during the summer as a replacement for Zinedine Zidane.
It is said that Real are 'double checking' to see if there is any chance they might be able to get Pochettino before making a final decision on hiring Conte.
The likelihood of the Argentine leaving Spurs mid-season seems slim at best. He only recently signed a new five-year contract and the cost of releasing him from that deal would be vast for Real.
Rather bizarrely, the Real manager saga is believed to have taken another twist after Conte's brother denied there has even been any contact over the possibility of taking over at the Bernabeu.
Despite recent speculation suggesting that Conte had heard from Real and let them know of his immediate availability, sibling Daniele Conte, who also acts as his agent, says it is not true.
"Antonio is currently on vacation and has not received any phone call from Real Madrid. We can certainly say that it is a great club, but for now there have been no contacts," Daniele declared while speaking on Spanish network Cadena Ser this week.

When comparing MacVim vs Editra, the Slant community recommends MacVim for most people. In the question"What are the best programming text editors?" MacVim is ranked 13th while Editra is ranked 65th. The most important reason people chose MacVim is:
Every plugin available for Vim is available for MacVim too.
Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pro Lots of plugins
Every plugin available for Vim is available for MacVim too.
Pro Extremely customizable
MacVim is Vim, meaning it has all of Vim's customizability and power.
Pro OS X input methods
MacVim supports OSX's native shortcuts making the adoption of Vim easier.
Pro Extensive community support
MacVim, like Vim itself has a large community backing it.
Pro Automatic font substitution
In cases of a selected font missing certain characters, MacVim will find a font that has that character.
Pro Vimtutor teaches the basics of Vim in 30 minutes
Vimtutor is an excellent interactive tutorial for people with no prior experience of Vim. It's bundled with Vim and takes about 30 minutes to complete.
Pro Everything is a mnemonic
Vim associates keys with words. For example,
d is for "delete" and
w is for "word". To perform an action you string together letters. Thus, to delete a word, press dw.
This way it's possible to abstract a large amount of functionality that Vim provides in an intuitive way.
Pro Enables effective keyboard-driven editing due to its modal nature
Interaction with Vim is centered around several modes. Each mode has a different purpose and switching between them changes behaviour and keybindings. There are 12 modes in total (six basic modes and six variations on basic modes) and four of them are used commonly.
Insert mode is for entering text. This mode most resembles traditional text entry in most editors.
Normal mode (the default) is entered by hitting ESC and converts all keybindings to center around movement within the file, search, pane selection, etc.
Command mode is entered by hitting ":" in Normal mode and allows you to execute Vim commands and scripts similar in fashion to a shell.
Visual mode is for selecting lines, blocks, and characters of code.
Modes allow separating concerns between various tasks and reusing keys for different kinds of functionality. As a result, the workflow becomes more efficient.
Pro Multi-byte support
Permits writing characters that don't fit in one byte, most notably logograms (for writing in languages such as Japanese, Chinese, and Korean) and Unicode characters.
Pro Very customizable
Pro Small and portable
Editra's small size makes it extremely fast and portable. It can be uploaded in a USB drive and be used on the go.
Pro Powerful
Editra can open more than 60 different types of source code, each with syntax highlighting and many other features. It also has many widgets that can be installed to make the user experience easier (you can download them from the main site).
Pro Cross-platform and open source
Editra can run on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows. Its sources are easily available from the site.
Pro Simple
Editra has a simple and very customizable UI.
Pro Python IDE
It's written in Python and can also be used as a Python IDE. Just by extending it through the installation of additional features and widgets, Editra can become an IDE for any programming language it supports.
Con Slow when opening files with very long lines
A lot of very long lines can make MacVim take up to a minute to open, where a few other editors take only a few seconds to load the same file.
Con Only available on macOS
A decent text editor is available on all major platforms (macOS, Linux, Windows).
Con Difficult learning curve
MacVim after all is still Vim, and with that comes the complexity that Vim brings and the difficult learning curve that needs to be overcome.
Editra's UI is rather ugly and outdated and the color scheme is not as sleek as the other options out there.

Many people have been angry with President Trump because of his 'Muslim-ban', but the most anger has came from the fact he didn't ban Saudi Arabia which has countless Terrorist ties and are most famous for funding the 9/11 attack. Is this lack of a ban on Saudi Arabia a sniff of betrayal, or is … Continue reading Why didn't President Trump ban Saudi Arabia? The answer will destroy the Left-wing's narrative.
Trump's 'Muslim' ban is Obama's.
So the media around the world is going crazy about President Trump's 'Islamophobic Muslim ban'. This is rubbish. The ban is a 120 day ban on immigrants from nations which have the highest proportion of Islamic terrorism, and the person who decided which countries are the most dangerous was Ex-president Obama. '[T]he same seven countries … Continue reading Trump's 'Muslim' ban is Obama's.
Abortion is not a woman's right, it is a family issue.
Abortion is not a woman's right and the fact it is labelled as such is the problem. It is not a human right to destroy a human right.

A very short introduction: Dante by Peter Hainsworth & David Robey, book review
Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) is a poet who is well known for his depictions of Hell, Purgatory and Paradise. But while this may be true, not many people have bothered to read all three of his epic poems which tells the tale of himself at the age of thirty five: "Midway upon the journey of our … Continue reading A very short introduction: Dante by Peter Hainsworth & David Robey, book review
A review of Sam Harris' and Jordan B. Peterson's debate.

Oxford Playscripts: Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe, book review
Introducing a classic of literature that needs no real introduction seems somewhat pointless, except when it is newly adapted and published in a modern form in order to inform secondary school students and actors new to acting. This is such a book. An adaption by Geraldine McCaughrean of the Germanic myth of Faust. Marlowe's version … Continue reading Oxford Playscripts: Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe, book review

Me and My Kangas
Here I am, at my front door, wrapped in my kanga; outerwear that binds me to my homeland. Pure cotton, long enough to cover the whole body comfortably, with a theme strong enough to enrich my soul, resuscitate childhood memories, and deepen my faith in the future.
I have a stack of these kangas, each one bold in design. They are works of art dazzling in their representation of an aspect of East African culture, where women and young girls wrap them around their bodies as skirts, head-ties, or nifty strapless dresses.
Lately, I've been pulling them out of my closet, one by one, indelible symbols of my youth, and purveyors of African tradition. They contribute to the power behind my voice. And I've been writing a lot lately; writing and rewriting, under the gathers of my brilliant prints.

On October 1st HIP launched its first afterschool meal program. Four days a week, youth who come to the Lake City Library's Homework Help program will now have access to a healthy snack provided by HIP. This means youth can put their full attention towards their tutors when hunger is not a distraction.
Afterschool Snack – New at HIP
Lake City-based Hunger Intervention Program (HIP) works to bring food to local families and seniors through its Healthy HIP Packs Program, meal programs, and by advocating for our hungry neighbors.
Volunteers generously give their time to pass out snacks like apple & cheese slices, PBJ sandwiches, whole wheat muffins, and 100% juice. Erica Olin, long time HIP volunteer and our newest board member, was drawn to volunteer because she loves kids and put simply, "who doesn't love snack?"
The youth aren't the only ones who can focus better now that HIP provides a snack during Homework Help. Last year, the library independently provided a snack to youth attending Homework Help. With no access to a kitchen and a limited number of volunteers to spare, it was a strain on the library. By partnering with HIP the library staff can turn its attention and funding back toward providing the best tutoring possible.
Afterschool meals has a strategic place within HIP's programming. It is a complement to the Healthy HIP Pack program (a weekend food program for kids) and summer meals for kids. By providing programming in a variety of locations and times we are closing gaps and creating a more systematic approach to ending childhood hunger in Northeast Seattle. Serving snack at the Lake City Library is just the start. HIP is actively seeking new partners to expand the afterschool meals program in the upcoming year. For more information, contact Darcy Buendia, HIP Meal Program Coordinator at email@example.com.

Your Valentine's Day should be remarkable and leave an unforgettable impression in the mind of your beloved. Although diamond jewelry can strike a romantic chord, most people must think more practical for financial reasons. Celebrate your love together this Valentine's Day by doing something romantic for each other. Here are a few ideas that you can do.
What can be better than a candlelight dinner to celebrate Valentine's Day? This is one of the most romantic Valentine's Day ideas. You can go to a romantic restaurant for the dinner or you can arrange to have it at your home. If you are planning to go out, select a restaurant ahead of time and book the table early. If you cook the meal yourself, don't forget dessert–something chocolate such as chocolate covered strawberries.
After dinner, put on some nice romantic music and dance. Dinner and dancing go hand in hand for a romantic evening. If you're at home, put on a CD and dance around the living room, or go outside and dance under the moon and stars. A good song to dance to on Valentine's Day is Martina McBride's Valentine. If you are at a restaurant, before you leave the parking lot, roll down the car window, find a nice song on the radio or put on a CD if your car has a CD player, walk your beloved to the front of the car and dance together in the glow of the headlights
Flowers are beautiful and they are a very nice gift to give and to receive. However, balloons are less expensive and more fun. Purchase two or three packages of balloons. Blow them up all except for about ten of them, tie them and spread them all over the bedroom floor around the bed. Blow up the remaining ten balloons but before tying them, insert little notes giving 10 different reasons why you love your beloved. Then tie them and mix them with the others. In the middle of the bed, have a stuffed animal holding a card and surrounded by Hershey's kisses. The card should read, "In the midst of a room full of balloons, you must find the ten special balloons and pop them to find the hidden messages for the ten reasons why I love you." Here are some suggestions to put on the notes. I saw these written on little stones.

Late last week, Brian Laird, the executive chef of Russo's Kitchen + Tavern, which opens on Thursday at Vallagio at Inverness, trotted out a non-stop medley of dishes during a staff tasting and orientation -- and we were lucky enough to share in the food coma.
And Laird, the former chef of Barolo Grill, whose kitchen he reigned over for more than a dozen years, has a renewed sense of energy, a new spring in his step, and a seasonally driven, ever-changing menu that he's crazy-excited about -- in part, because he owns it. "This menu is my style of food, and I'm super-excited about the fact that I have the freedom to play with -- and expand the repertoire of -- my ingredients," says Laird, whose board is steadfastly suited to his own personal fancies and whimsies. "I love not being trapped by one specific cuisine, or region, and while my menu definitely leans toward Italian food, there's a lot of stuff on there that I personally really love," he adds, pointing, for example, to his chile water, a popular Hawaiian table condiment.
"We're not here to complicate dishes," notes Laird. "Simple dishes are best, and that's what my cooking style is all about." And now that he's a chef and a restaurant operator, Laird understands that the bar is set high. "This is what I've been working toward for a really long time -- this is the dream -- but that also means that there's a lot on my shoulders," he admits. "Everything goes by me now, and being able to bring up a new generation of cooks and chefs is super-cool -- there's a tremendous amount of gratitude in that -- but we need to make sure we do a kick-ass job."
Judging from the dishes he turned out during the tasting, he's well on his way to doing just that. Flip the page to get a sneak peek of what Laird has in store.
Fontina, Gruyere and Parmesan macaroni and cheese dabbed with pesto. Tempura-fried artichoke and zucchini chips swiped with a sriracha aioli. Floating with Parmesan-crusted matzoh balls, this is Peter Kudla's matzoh-ball soup stocked with shredded chicken, carrots, fennel and spinach. House-smoked salmon with capers, onions, mixed greens, crème fraiche and olives sandwiched between two half-crescents of buttery hash browns. Roasted beets drizzled with honey and enlivened with toasted walnuts. Spheres of eggplant, marinated in fresh-squeezed tomato juice, lemon, wine and olive oil, fried and crowned with an olive tapenade. Russo's burger, hand-formed patties of all-natural Colorado beef topped with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cheese, mushrooms or a poached, fried egg, served on brioche and sided with fries, coleslaw or macaroni and cheese. Spicy Italian sausage and roasted red pepper sandwich blanketed with mozzarella and served on a toasted roll. Sauteed crimini mushrooms tossed with fresh, hand-cut pasta, available in half and whole portions. The star of the show: a deep-fried poached egg heaped with Calabrian peppers, thin-sliced prosciutto, arugula, pesto sauce and tomatoes on toasted ciabatta. Classic pasta Bolognese with fresh, hand-cut tagliatelle. Polenta-crusted sea bass, plated with fried peppers, polenta croutons and chile aioli. Grilled Scottish salmon, straddling a dune of potato and celery-root puree and festooned with a caramelized-onion relish. Executive chef/operator Brian Laird and Peter Kudla, owner of Russo's, and the visionary behind Vallagio at Inverness. We normally don't include bathrooms in our photo essays, but like the dining room at Russo's, which is full of kaleidoscopic artwork and furnishings, so, too are the bathrooms. Brian Laird, the former executive chef of Barolo Grill, is spearheading the kitchen at Russo's, which he describes as "simple Italian." It would take you days to explore the hundreds upon hundred of conversation pieces that bedeck the walls at Russo's, many of which come from Peter Kudla's private collections of really cool stuff.

The need for improving dementia care has driven the development of the clinical decision support system DMSS (Dementia Management and Support System). A sociotechnical approach to design and development has been applied, with an activity-centered methodology and user participation throughout the process. Prototypes have been developed based on the characteristics of clinical practice and domain knowledge, while clinical practice has been subjected to different efforts for development such as education and organizational change. This paper addresses the lessons learned and role and impact DMSS has had, and is expected to have on the clinical assessment of dementia in different clinics in Sweden, South Korea and Japan. Furthermore, it will be described in what way the development of DMSS and the development of dementia care in these three areas are interlinked. Results indicate that the most important contribution of DMSS at the point of care, is the educational support that DMSS provides, part from the tailored explanatory support related to a patient case. This effect was partly manifested in a change of routines in the encounter with patients.
