Toonie ($2 Canadian dollars)
(a short story)
The two walked down Rue St. Jean in the old city of Quebec under a bright blue sky filled with a panoply of candescent cumulus nimbus clouds. He took the road side to protect her without her knowledge. The folded map rested in his back pocket. He didn't want to have to take it out again.
"How do you think you'll do on your diagnostic French exam?" he said.
"Don't really care," she responded. "Hey, I don't think we can even get lunch. I think I only have equivalent to about 7 dollars, Canadian, I think."
"Two lunches? Well, it's Sunday and tomorrow's a holiday–what for the queen of England, her birthday or something, so everything is going to be closed," he said.
"Maybe we can try to use your card?" she said.
"I forgot to call the bank yesterday morning before so I don't know if it will work," he replied.
They continued walking and noticed a church with its sets of double doors wide open. They stopped and tried to figure out what was going on as it was readily apparent the Eglise had been made into a second-hand book shop with racks and racks of old used, books stuffed on shelves and piles laid out, stacked on long rectangular tables. The taxi driver from the airport had said they city was transforming buildings, even churches into multi-use facilities, churches as apartments, grocery stories, bookstores, and the like. It was a strange image to suddenly see a church vacant of pews with shelving and what would normally be tables full of a pot luck buffet, now housing a makeshift, pop up library.
They crossed the threshold pass where the baptism water would have been along two columns and went in.
The smell of foisty water was everywhere and reminded him of his cement walled basement as a child. There was always a dampness, and droplets of water seeping through the walls at various junctures.
"Must have been some kind of problem with the roof?" she said as they both looked up at the gothic archways and sculptured ceilings. Figures of angels and knights as well as bucolic landscapes still looked clean. The frescoes still held you for moments once you had scanned the glass-stained, Christian symbols and familiar story images along side both sides of the expanse of the church.
A workman was still mopping the floor behind one of the shelving units. Nothing was in order, just books upon books, some layered on top of one another, some in rows, others in stacks, uneven columns though hard and soft back books had the distinction of being opposite sides of the room.
A few people were milling about the shelves. Many of the books in boxes or on shelves looked waterlogged, or slightly wet while others seemed perfectly fine. The pews had been taken out, it appeared some time ago, and the only remaining vestiges of the church were these murals above, a handful of sculptures, two basins, and the stained glass.
The two went their separate ways through the shelving. In the distance you could hear someone playing a saxophone to "Summer time when the picking is easy, " probably with an open case in front of him.
John looked over the books, all in French, and noticed some of the shelves actually had descriptions: "history, biography, politics…" There had been some attempt. He remembered collecting his first set of books, some thirty, in the French language some 30 years before. At 55, he couldn't believe so much time had passed. He had only gotten through a handful of them: Les Miserables, Voyage au centre de la Terre, Vingt mille lieues sous les mers: Tour du monde sous-marin, a book of short stories by Maupassant, and L'Etranger.
He was glad to try to rekindle his knowledge of French with this week long class and knew his wife would be in the upper class and he, the lower but it didn't matter, as it had been 30 years since their time in Brussels together when all of it started.
Among the romantic novels and adolescent novels he found sitting there as if waiting for him, a book of poetry, in beautiful heavy white paper, the kind of book that will have been created in the first half of the century in the French style, sat there discriminantly, as if wanting to be picked up and placed there especially for him. He had wanted to be a poet. Wrote poetry. Published a little poetry but the score of rejections early on took a toll on him. He always reached out to literature and it seemed to always reach back to him even despite his nondescript job working for the state back in the U.S.
The tome sat on top of a cardboard box with a sign reading "$2 books." He leafed through the pages which had a hint of wetness, but the book wasn't soiled or had drips of any kind. In fact, it was quite pristine in color, like the whiteness of sheep or fresh cotton. It felt somewhat rough in his hands, bound in the old style with stitching down the binding. The cover, different to the paper inside, was smooth while the interior had been constructed with a surprisingly heavier stock. Titles were in a beautiful red, lipstick colored type; the writings in a font similar but not exact to a typewriter font.
He tried to read a few poems. It would be a very interesting endeavor to discover and try to understand poetry in a different language especially as so much poetry is metaphor.
The writer's name was Emile Nelligan. The book appeared to have some 300 pages, quite a collection, and he was surprised at the prolific life he must have had. The date of his bio read–December 24, 1879 – November 18, 1941. From Quebec, a Francophone, much of the poetry seemed to have been written if not in the sonnet style with a verve and style reminiscent of such a style for many poems seemed to be 14 to 20 lines at most though he didn't have time to count.
It was odd that the book seemed to be waiting for him here in the center of the church: here standing under a bell shaped ceiling with space all around him, images frolicking, pointing, and staring at him from every perspective. Was he on a pedestal?
Emile was from Quebec. This was his descent, his culture, his environs, his life. His church?
After more attempts at deciphering lines here and there, John took it to his wife as she was walking also towards him with a book of her own.
"I found this book on Quebec walks. What do you think?" she said.
"Well, we have the map with three four hour walks already laid out, what do you think?" he responded.
"What have you got there?" she said.
"It's an interesting book, poesie and from a Quebecois. Local." he said.
"Why don't you buy it? The guys over there still mopping but go ask him. How much?" she said.
"Go ask!"
The two walked over between the back shelves. John wanted to use his French.
In French("It is a pity, all this water here,") said John.
The man stopped mopping and placed the mop in its container and leaned on the handle slightly.
In French. ("Yes, it is,") said the man in the one piece, gray overalled suit.
In French. ("I am American, and a writer of sorts, well, not exactly a published writer…)
In English (or famous one for that matter, you speak English?)
In French (…but I like to write and I found this book,") holding it up to him.
In an English accent, ("Yes.") he said as if we were irked but the question.
In French, ("How much is it?") said John.
"$4? Well, it was in a box that read $2."
"That's for the small books."
"It is …" and he searched for the word for wet but could only come up with dry, 'sec'. He looked to his wife.
"The book is wet," she said she said in French. "Not entirely wet but it has some water in it, you can feel it."
In an English accent, ("$4. The book is $4.") He responded without the least bit of interest.
"But," said John continued, and was a little taken aback since the entire place had been damaged.
She looked at him then her husband and said in French, ("Nevermind,") and walked away.
She looked to him to leave and motioned to not bother with it , seemed a little miffed too, given the circumstances and was jockeying for position. They stood in silent in accordance as couples so often do in such circumstances, a temporary meetings of the mind until one makes another move. The workman had begun moping again.
"You go ahead," he told her politely, nodded for her to go ahead to which she gave a slight smirk of frustration. "Whatever" might have been her thought.
John composed himself and went in again and the workman.
In French. "Listen, thank you for your consideration but the book is used, old, wet, and has been shoved into a box, forgotten for all of time for all intents and purposes. I will buy it for $2. In fact, I am happy to buy it for a Toonie. Imagine what I will learn about you culture? your art? your history? your people? your views on love, relationships, maybe even learn about corridors in the old city as if I were reading a book about the Left Bank in Paris or Piccadilly Square in London."
In an English accent. "The book is $4."
John thought for a moment he could try to use some sales techniques, another piece of rhetoric, humor always worked well, but logic should work better. So he began:
In French. ("A bird in hand is worth two in the bush") but he didn't know the word for "bush" and instead followed with the word for "tree" in French. He looked up and closer to see if he got a smile from him from the broken metaphor. Nothing. He continued, in French. "You have a sale here. How many books like this have you sold today, this week, this month?"
(In French). "Not many." he replied.
John then said in French, ("Exactly,") and this was a superb word to say in French rather than English, so he said it a second time, ("Exactement!" and I imagine if you do sell some books they will not be poetry. How many people come in any book store and ask for poetry? In this day and age and perhaps any day and age for that matter, how many people on earth care about the sentiments of another who is trying to tell a story of the soul? of romance? the life of a city? a culture? Can you? Will you please?") and he thought the last plea could have sounded like a command, plea for help, or too customary as if out of a French 101 Chapter One lesson, so he again refined it, ("Is it possible that if could be made available for the price of a Toonie because I think that is what it is well worth it at this moment?")
He didn't take a moment to think but just stood more upright with his right elbow now on his mop as a rest. In an English accent he responded. ("It came in a box that read $4 and someone must have taken it out of the box and left it in the $2 box."
"I don't know. I found it in the $2 box."
He was silent and leaned less on the handle than before, just to keep it upright in the bucket with rollers. He did think for a moment.
And John continued now for he felt the additional need to go for some sense of humor as the conversation was becoming rather stale now, and sadly moving towards anger for it was clear he had work to do and he was stopping him from his job, and he could sense his wife was now waiting for him at the open doorway and then all this might arrive at a place where only bitterness resides…
"And the funny thing is that I don't know French that well, so I will only be able to read half of it anyway which brings us to the Toonie figure," he said with a smile. It only took a moment, a wrinkle of a nose. It didn't go far.
"Well, the book will earn more, the more you understand and when you are done, it may become inestimable, sans prix," said the workman.
"Priceless" was what he was looking for and it took some time to comprehend what he was meaning, but once it sank in, John was taken aback by the profundity of retort and it still took a little more time to settle in as he stood there.
"Okay," John said and he tried to make one last attempt. He knew it was too far gone and it was over but the understanding of value was now a factor so he made one last attempt to offer:
"You know, you are right. We all try in life to find value in things: experiences, relationships, in material things, gifts, cars, houses, and yes, if we are so lucky in a loved one and any offspring for such a relationship if we should be so fortunate–all in the hopes of being "inestimable"(sounded in French) as you say, what is the prix of a memory of a lifetime, a concept, idea, image that will reoccur forever in one's mind for you feel, one feels it has an overabundant worth… If I read this book I will have a chance to speak to someone and listen to someone who has been dead for almost one hundred years. He holds a key to my imagination and if he is good enough, if he is talented and gifted enough, he will unlock my imagination in a unique way, in only the way that his life and soul were able to speak across time and space, and I will also be able to unlock his. We will communicate to one another. Imagine that. It might be the most interesting of conversations that I will be able to share with this gentleman, Monsieur Nelligan, maybe over coffee in some cafe nearby as I sip and read. Maybe in the evening with an open window out to the St. Lawrence. And he, by chance is also Quebecois. I will have the occasion to understand Quebec and its people, and this culture in a way that would be entirely new to me. Are you going to give me a chance to have this unique conversation with a Quebecois and break bread with a Canadian poet?"
"I am not going to give you this book for free," he said.
John wanted to shake his head. He was getting a little upset now but didn't want to show it.
"You know the American dollar does not compare to the Canadian. You know a beer here costs almost three times as much, $8 in most places for just one beer. In America, it costs $1 to $3."
"It is $4. It is pretty clear, isn't it," said the man in the jumpsuit.
"Sure, certain. I understand. Nevermind, I am sorry to keep you away from your cleaning." He felt the last word might have sounded flippant and didn't want to come off as an ugly American, "…your job. Have a good day, Monsieur."
He reluctantly walked back to the $2 box and placed the book on top of the others but didn't jam it into the corners as some had down to some of the other books. He moved quickly without looking back and exited the church doorway out into the bright light where his wife was waiting on a bench just one house up the street.
"How did that take so long? No luck?" she said.
"So stupid. With all that crap in there, the guy can't sell me a lousy book."
"Well, I looked into my purse and counted the coins and we only have $1.50 anyway…"
They both smiled heartily, grabbed one another's arms, and continued on their walk down St. Jean.

15 Heart-Healthy Foods That You Need to Add in Your Diet
If you want to save yourself from possible heart diseases, then these are a must-try!
We all know how important health is. Otherwise, we wouldn't be spending money on medicines and healthcare. But despite our efforts to keep our body healthy, we still get sick. This is perhaps due to our unhealthy diets and habits. After all, we're guilty of craving stuff like chocolates, burgers, and alcohol, among others.
When talking about health, it can't be denied that the heart is simply the most important organ in our body. The moment it ceases to function, we're dead. Unfortunately, many of us are into fatty food – the kind that increases our cholesterol levels. Unbeknownst to some, these can lead to vascular plaques and thus prevent our heart from working accordingly.
But it's not too late to turn things around and choose the right path. You can still save your heart and yourself from these horrors. Well, without further ado, below are 15 products that can clean your blood vessels efficiently. They're also effective in improving your overall well-being, decreasing your chances of getting heart attacks in the future. Go ahead and take note of them!
Since we're already talking about keeping our hearts healthy, why don't we include a special drink to help us achieve that?
Below are the ingredients:
Ginger juice – 250 ml
Garlic puree – 250 ml
Lemon juice – 250 ml
Apple cider vinegar – 250 ml
Honey – 5 tbsp.
Just simply mix all of them except for the honey. Cook on medium heat for at least 30 minutes. Be sure to stir the mixture continuously. Once cooked, cool it completely. This is where you're going to add the honey. Afterwards, pour the mixture into a clean bottle. You can choose to store this drink in the fridge for a month or two.
This drink is effective in reducing your cholesterol level. Ginger, in particular, prevents a lot of heart diseases. Lemon, on the other hand, regulates your heartbeat. Lastly, the apple cider vinegar removes toxin from the body.
Couple with 33 Years Age Gap Defends Relationship After Being Called 'Disgusting'
"I don't understand why I get called nasty things for being in a happy and healthy relationship," says Amanda.
Although we often hear the expression "age is just a number," it's still a pretty big deal for many people. Case in point, the couple below has an age gap of 33 years and some simply wouldn't quit bugging them because of it. In fact, they've even been labeled "disgusting" because of their relationship.
Still, 25-year-old Amanda Harper and 58-year-old Jay Horsy is determined to prove everyone wrong. The pair wants to show to everyone that it is possible to have a "happy and healthy" relationship despite the age difference.
Age doesn't matter in love, right?

Tony talks to us today about the role of the real estate agent when buying properties for investment purposes. As you may know, when it comes to real estate transactions, there is the seller's agent and there is a buyer's agent. The agent who is representing the property is obligated to work in the best interests of the seller, whereas the buyer's agent is obligated to work in the best interest of the buyer. However, most real estate agents are used to dealing with the typical home buyer – in other words, a buyer looking to purchase a home as their own residence. This is a little different than an investment buyer. Whereas a potential homeowner wants things like nice upgrades in kitchen and bath, neighborhood amenities, and the best school district in the area, an investor needs information like what rents go for in the area and how much renovation costs are going to run.
Often, our loan officers are not only working on the best loan for our clients, they are also helping our clients to make the best investment decisions. It takes a certain sort of experience to gauge what shape a house is in, what sort of costs might be involved in a rehab, and what the probable after-repair value will be. These things are of vital importance when it comes to finding the right real estate investment, but often your real estate agent will not be able to provide that information.
Getting aligned with a buyer's agent who is savvy about investing can be of great value to the investor. Likewise, working with contractors who understand that you are planning keep the property as a rental or sell the property as a flip is a great advantage. Keep this in mind as you build your team of trusted advisors, and find people to work with you will help you make the right investment choices.

Escondido's gang-related violent crimes have decreased heavily in recent years thanks to the gang enforcement team and programs like FIT.
Escondido's gang enforcement team works day and night to prevent gang activity, but recently gang activity calls have decreased. Sergeant Witholt of the Escondido Gang Investigations Unit says, "The gang activity is still there, it's still present. It's just not as bad as it has been in the past." The main focus of the gang enforcement team is to keep tabs on gang members that are out of prison and are on probation or parole. Along with this, they respond to any gang-related incidents that have been reported. They make sure that their presence is always known in the city.
The violent crimes in this city have greatly affected the citizens, and the gang enforcement unit acknowledges this and hopes to continue to bring the violent crimes numbers down. "Certain numbers are up but overall we can say that violent crime is down and that's what affects people the most. Vandalism might be around, tagging pops up now and then but it's not like it's spiking and spiking all the time."
The gangs in the area mostly consist of Diablo's and West Side Gang. Most commonly, the age of a gang member is between twelve and twenty-four, the average age being eighteen or nineteen. A large problem in any city is the influx of youth into gangs. Modern culture has led to a romanticization of gangs, whether that be through movies, television, or music. "It's more acceptable for kids to hang out with gangsters because they like the reputation for being a troublemaker," says Sergeant Witholt.
High schools have seen the problems that come with gangs and have responded with the Family Intervention Team (FIT). This team works with the Gang Investigations Unit to show kids that there is more to life than the gangs. FIT pairs a former police officer and a former gang member to show the kids both sides of the coin. The high schoolers who experience FIT and are shown a new side to their community. "Some kids come in and we ask them if they've ever gone to the beach and they tell us, no, and we tell them the beach is thirty minutes away and we take them to the beach for the first time in their lives," says Sergeant Witholt gladly.
The continuation of this program and the constant vigilance of the gang enforcement team help to stop the gang-related violent crimes. Though there have been several high profile shootings, Sergeant Witholt states, "Shootings have gone down fifty percent per year for the past two years. This year so far it was half of last year. That's a number we look at, a hard number. Shootings are going down greatly and we aim to keep that up."

Alcoholics Anonymous: Big Book [more]
Preface: A friend once told me "there is no one in the world who cannot benefit from a twelve-step program." How right she was. I first read the big book when a relative entered AA. I was 33 and it was an unforgettable experience for me. I've (sadly) been associated with AA and Alanon many times since and still the book astounds me – mainly now because despite its age, the lessons remain relevant.
A favorite quote:
What else? "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can change, and the wisdom to know the difference."

Could I be a counselor?
This is a question that everyone who considers counseling has to wrestle with. Answering some of the following questions may give you some insight as to whether you might make a good counselor:
- Are you passionate about helping hurting people find hope in a broken world?
- Do you want to help individuals and families through difficult times?
- Does your heart break for the pain that people experience in daily life?
- Are you excited to share the love of Christ with those who need it most?
- Do you like to listen and help individuals work through big decisions?
- Are you interested in helping those with mental illness learn how to thrive?
At the heart of a counselor is the desire to help people overcome brokenness and pursue wholeness in life. Professional counselors support people through their clinical expertise and willingness to invest their time and energy in the lives of others.

Why not plant African palm oil plants on Maui acreage?
How many thousands of acres — how about planting African palm oil palms? After all, they are destroying rain forests to plant the palms. Why can't we plant it on Maui? It has many uses and takes less water than the majority of crops.

text: A few years ago, I found myself in need of reliable transportation. After years of living in a large city and getting around with the aid of public transport, I took a job in a smaller town. That meant I needed a car fast. At first, I only thought about buying something new. After talking with a couple of auto dealers, I realized that a good quality used vehicle would be a good fit for me. With their help, I found a car with low mileage and a reasonable sale price. I'm still driving that used car today. If you are in the market for a vehicle, let me share what I learned from those dealers. You can put these tips to good use and end up with a car that provides years of reliable service.

Danger Mouse Biography
The brilliant music producer Brian Joseph Burton, who goes by the stage name Danger Mouse, was born on July 29, 1977, in White Plains, New York USA. The prolific artist that's one-half of Broken Bells and Gnarls Barkley, has produced for the likes of The Black Keys, Gorillaz and Beck.
In July 2010 was released an unparalleled album titled "Dark Night Of The Soul" officially credited to Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse. The disc was as a de facto tribute to Mark Linkous, the talented yet overlooked artist who performed under the pseudonym Sparklehorse and who committed suicide on March 6, 2010. The record, which peaked at #24 on The Billboard 200 Albums chart, saw the pair joined by a remarkable number of guests including The Flaming Lips, Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals, Julian Casablancas, Iggy Pop, David Lynch, Nina Persson of The Cardigans, Suzanne Vega among others.
Some five years in the making, the conception of Danger Mouse's collaborative project "Rome" involved Italian composer + arranger Daniele Luppi. United in their shared passion for classic Italian film music, Burton and Luppi created a record like no other: recording took place in Rome's cavernous Forum Studios formerly Ortophonic Studios, founded by the great Ennio Morricone, employing vintage equipment and making every effort to replicate the recording practices of the '60s and '70s golden age, recording live to tape, with no electronics, computers or 21st-century effects. Crucial to the completion of "Rome" has been the enlistment of two lead vocalists Jack White and Norah Jones. The lead-off single, "Two Against One", which features performance by White who recorded his vocal part in Nashville, hit #20 on The Alternative Songs chart while "Rome" peaked at #11 on The Billboard 200 and at #15 on the Top Canadian Albums chart.

Metabolic responses to temperature stress under elevated pCO2 in the slipper limpet Crepidula fornicata

In the current context of environmental change, ocean acidification is predicted to affect the cellular processes, physiology and behaviour of all marine organisms, impacting survival, growth and reproduction. In relation to thermal tolerance limits, the effects of elevated pCO2 could be expected to be more pronounced at the upper limits of the thermal tolerance window. Our study focused on Crepidula fornicata, an invasive gastropod which colonized shallow waters around European coasts during the 20th century. We investigated the effects of 10 weeks' exposure to current (380 µatm) and elevated (550, 750, 1,000 µatm) pCO2 on this engineer species using an acute temperature increase (1 °C 12 h−1) as the test. Respiration rates were measured on both males (small individuals) and females (large individuals). Mortality increased suddenly from 34 °C, particularly in females. Respiration rate in C. fornicata increased linearly with temperature between 18 and 34 °C, but no differences were detected between the different pCO2 conditions either in the regressions between respiration rate and temperature or in Q10 values. In the same way, condition indices were similar in all the pCO2 treatments at the end of the experiment, but decreased from the beginning of the experiment. This species was highly resistant to acute exposure to high temperature regardless of pCO2 levels, even though food was limited during the experiment. Crepidula fornicata appears to have either developed resistance mechanisms or a strong phenotypic plasticity to deal with fluctuations of physicochemical parameters in its habitat. This suggests that invasive species may be more resistant to future environmental changes than its native competitors.

ABC Coral Reef is a children's book project that I conceptualized and created in 2002 – 2004 as my thesis project for my Master of Fine Arts degree from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, CA.
My inspiration to write and illustrate this book developed from my experiences snorkeling in the Philippines wherein I first discovered the magnificent beauty of marine life in the Pacific Ocean. In 1990, I started painting the "Marine Dreams" underwater series that premiered at the Hiraya Gallery in Manila in 1992, capturing the rapidly eroding Philippine eco-treasure that I wanted to make the public aware of. I decided to write and illustrate the "ABC Coral Reef" to teach children the beauty of the coral reefs and tropical marine life in the Pacific Ocean.
The initial sketches were done in pencil and the final whimsical illustration were executed in color using watercolor, gouache and color pencil on Arches 140 lb. watercolor paper to display fish in their natural environment. I wrote it using alliteration style (a stylistic poetic device in which a number of words, having the same first consonant sound, occur close together in a series of a sentence). For example:
Letter A – Annie anemone fish is an awesome artist.
Letter B – Butterfly fish blow bubbles before breakfast.
Letter C – Chris the crab cuddles Carol clownfish.
A glossary at the back of the book provided extra information on the various fish, fauna, and flora words.
ABC Coral Reef was self-published in 2012 as a paperback and launched at the Marunouchi Gallery, New York City during Dee's 4 man group show.

Wonderful autumn Farmers' Market tips to make the most of the season:
Fall Vegetables to Fall in Love With at the Farmers Market
Fall vegetables are different from the summertime produce. While tomatoes, corn, and summer squash dominate the summer farmers market, heartier fare like winter squash, greens, and root vegetables are the mainstays of autumn produce. Check out some of our autumnal farmers market favorites:
Pumpkin and Butternut Squash, Potatoes, Parsnips, Kale, Spinach, Beans, Corn, Tomatoes, Cucumbers and Zucchini.
Preserve the Harvest of the Farmers Market
- Freezing – Blanch and freeze food to keep you stocked with produce through the long winter.
- Canning – Canning works for foods that aren't suitable for freezing. Turn apples into applesauce, for example, so you have local fruit all winter long. You can also can pumpkin, squash, and beans.
- Fermenting and Pickling – Fermented foods are so good for you and fermenting is a useful way to keep foods from going bad too. Make homemade cabbage sauerkraut that will change your life! Grab some beets, radishes, or carrots and pickle them to preserve them and add some vinegary flavor!
- Cold Storage – Store extra winter squashes in the basement, or other cool, dry, and dark space in your home, to keep you through the winter.
Make Stock (or Bone Broth)
Those gorgeous carrot tops, turnip greens, and celery ends can all be turned into the loveliest homemade vegetable stock for making soups and stews this winter. Make a big pot each week to use now, or freeze for use later in the season. Once you make stock, you will never again want to use the store bought version. Mix it in with your bone broth for a nourishing winter soup base.
Try Something New
The chances are that quite a bit of the produce choices found at your local farmers market are new to you. Many of the fall fruits and vegetables that are staples at the farmers market never make it into the grocery stores. You may not see kohlrabi, okra, Romanesco broccoli, cheese pumpkin, gooseberries, kumquats, or purple carrots at the grocery store, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't give them a try!
Try a New Technique
- The bounty of autumn is the perfect time to try a new preparation or a new cooking method. Kale is so bountiful and affordable at the autumn farmers market; it's the perfect time to attempt making roasted kale chips. Or consider making cabbage steaks from the ubiquitous cabbage found at the market. The variety that the fall harvest provides is just asking for you to get creative in the kitchen!
SEAWEED FERTILISER with Clive Barker
Persistence is what it takes to get things done in New Zealand, according to Clive Barker. As a result of extensive research into the plant health benefits of wakame seaweed and some frustration with government departments, he has developed a liquid seaweed fertiliser. Working in the aquaculture industry for the best part of 35 years laid a solid foundation for Clive's foray into the wakame industry.
Moving to Marlborough, he started working for Dominion Salt in 1984. About the same time Clive met Paul Dean, a Dunedin scientist. The two men shared an interest in harvesting the undira seaweed found growing wild in our sounds. The potential market was Asia where the seaweed is used as a nutritional human food called wakame. However, after three years of attempting to get a licence and disappointed at the delay, Paul moved to Australia. Clive was equally frustrated with the denial of a farming licence. "Department of Conservation and the Ministry of Fisheries would not allow the harvesting of the seaweed as it is an introduced species. "If you try to do anything different in New Zealand you're wasting your time, and by the time you do eventually get approval you've lost interest or moved on."
However, Clive does not give up that easy. "I've kept at it, and was eventually informed by the government departments that as long as it (wakame) was growing as part of another marine operation, it could be harvested. "As the wakame grows on mussel farms, which there is no shortage of, there is plenty out there." The celebration of approval to harvest was short lived as the Chinese had started to supply the worldwide market. "The Chinese produce about two million tonnes of wakame each year."
Never a man to give up, Clive switched his research focus to the health benefits of wakame to the horticulture industry, and has developed his home processed liquid fertiliser, Wakame Grow. The liquid fertiliser has been successfully trialled on Clive's garden. His rose bush increased its blooms 10 fold, and the peaches last longer once picked.

ANAMOSA, Iowa — As the Democratic presidential candidates fanned out across Iowa and New Hampshire on Thursday to address voters still scarred by President Trump's victory in the 2016 election, Joseph R. Biden Jr. argued that any Democratic nominee would be vulnerable to baseless criticism and disinformation in the general election.
Mr. Biden's remarks in Iowa, at his first political event of the 2020 election year, came a day after a deceptive video of him circulated online, highlighting how campaigns are still struggling to combat false information on the internet.
"You're going to see a lot more of not only my statements being taken out of context and lied about or altered, you're going to see whomever the Democratic nominee is, because that's how this guy operates," Mr. Biden said, adding that Democratic candidates would face unfair attacks from Mr. Trump "if I were to drop out of the race tomorrow" or "if I were to drop dead tomorrow." (There was no evidence that the video was connected to the president.)
Mr. Biden's comment came in response to an event attendee who asked him about his ability to beat Mr. Trump, and also to clarify his remarks in the video, which had been misleadingly edited to wrongly suggest that Mr. Biden was making racist remarks. In fact he was emphasizing the need to change "our culture" around violence toward women.
Still, the video spread rapidly on social media, amplified by many right-wing verified users on Twitter, including reporters at conservative news outlets, the former speaker of the Missouri House and Republican strategists, according to data compiled by Vinesight, a company that detects disinformation on social media. It is an online environment that alarms many Democratic voters who are gripped by anxiety over how best to defeat Mr. Trump.
The president, who was impeached in the House of Representatives in connection with asking Ukraine to investigate Mr. Biden, is comfortable only in a "mosh pit," said Mr. Biden, who has faced months of false or exaggerated attacks from Mr. Trump and other Republicans.
Still, he argued that the Democratic Party was in a far stronger position today to confront Mr. Trump than it was in 2016, noting support for the president's impeachment among some voters — "Hillary didn't have that advantage" — and saying that in the previous campaign, not everyone took Mr. Trump seriously.
In response to the questioner, who also asked whether he was running a better campaign than Hillary Clinton had, Mr. Biden offered a wide-ranging answer and relitigated how Mrs. Clinton had handled a debate after Mr. Trump was caught on tape bragging about making unsolicited sexual advances.
He suggested that Mrs. Clinton could have changed the subject, pivoting to how she hoped to change voters' lives. Instead, Mr. Biden said, "she did what every other candidate probably would have done" by lacing into his character, yielding an ugly debate, and "it all went down the drain." Yet before that debate even started, Mr. Trump had invited several women who had made allegations against former President Bill Clinton to join him for a photo opportunity.
Mr. Biden also noted sexism as he discussed the last campaign, which he called "unfair," but added, "That's not going to happen with me."
It was not just Mr. Biden who was ruminating on the 2016 election on Thursday; Mrs. Clinton's loss in the Electoral College was on the minds of other candidates as well as voters.
At a campaign office opening in Plymouth, N.H., the entrepreneur Andrew Yang told voters: "Donald Trump is our president today because he had a very simple message — he said he was going to 'make America great again.' What did Hillary Clinton say in response? 'America is already great.'"
"That did not quite work," Mr. Yang said. "The problems are real. The struggles are real. Many Americans are being left behind. But Donald Trump's solutions were not what we need."
And Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, campaigning at a town-hall-style event in Concord, N.H., was asked by a voter whether she would work to unite the party around the Democratic nominee if it was not her. The voter noted how some supporters of Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont did not rally behind Mrs. Clinton in the general election against Mr. Trump.
Ms. Warren began a lengthy answer by first committing to party unity: "Every single person who is in the race for the Democratic nomination for president would make a far better president than Donald Trump," she said to applause.
"I'm in all the way," she added, and started making the case for differences between the 2020 race and the 2016 campaign — chiefly, in her telling, the palpably greater determination and intensity among Democrats to beat Mr. Trump.
"What we have to remind ourselves is, 2020 is not 2016. The world has changed," she said, recalling the protest marches after Mr. Trump's inauguration and the Democratic victories in 2018 in the House of Representatives and key governorships, and in 2019 in Kentucky, Louisiana and Virginia.
"We are getting stronger and we are in this fight," she said. "2020 gives us this remarkable moment that is very different from '16 or '12 or '08 or however far you want to go back. This moment where Americans are off the sidelines."
Saying that "the door is open a crack" to an era of major reforms and the end of "business as usual," she added: "Think about it — a nation that elects someone like Donald Trump is a nation that has got serious problems. Going back is not where we want to be. Our chance in 2020 is to look at that crack, drop our shoulder, run hard at it and build the America we want to be."
Asked for comment, a Republican National Committee spokesman, Steve Guest, said, "Insulting half the country didn't work for Hillary Clinton in 2016, and it won't work for the Democrats in 2020, either."
Mr. Sanders, another leading progressive in the race, also waded into the debate over how to defeat Mr. Trump as he uncorked some of his fiercest criticism of Mr. Biden to date in an interview with The Washington Post.
"It's just a lot of baggage that Joe takes into a campaign, which isn't going to create energy and excitement," Mr. Sanders said. "He brings into this campaign a record which is so weak that it just cannot create the kind of excitement and energy that is going to be needed to defeat Donald Trump."
Mr. Sanders on Thursday reported an eye-popping fund-raising haul of more than $34.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, according to his campaign, ahead of Mr. Biden at $22.7 million — Mr. Biden's strongest quarter to date — as well as former Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Ind., whose campaign reported more than $24.7 million.
Even as Mr. Sanders sharpened his attacks on Mr. Biden in the interview, he largely stuck to his familiar message on the trail in Iowa on Thursday, denouncing income inequality and championing his signature policy proposal, "Medicare for all." At a canvass kickoff in Grinnell, he jokingly named a young girl as his running mate.
As he boarded his new campaign bus after that event, he briefly answered a question about his fourth-quarter fund-raising, calling attention specifically to the more than five million contributions his campaign had received since he entered the race. "That tells me the kind of grass-roots support that we have and tells me why we're going to win the nomination and why we're going to defeat Donald Trump," he said.

When I heard I'd be driving my own team of huskies in Svalbard I was excited but nervous: what if the dogs lead me into a ditch? Worse still, what if I accidentally run one of them over?
I'm a naturally clumsy person so the likelihood of one of these things happening is more than possible. But luckily, I discovered that husky dogs are very intelligent, trained to understand commands and have a great aptitude for spatial awareness. So really the question I should have asked myself was 'how will the dogs handle me?'
Firstly, to go dog sledding I always thought there needed to be snow, but I was wrong, you can still go dog sledding without snow but you do it on WHEELS! Because of this, I should really be calling it husky carting or something, but I'll stick with husky sledding for the sake of tradition.
Husky dog sledding in Norway (The Culture Map)
After getting changed into super sexy hi vis attire the experience of greeting the huskies was one of insanely loud barking and wagging tails – they are extremely excited to see visitors and they all compete against each other by trying their utmost to get attention. It was really cute to see each dog with its own doghouse complete with a wooden plaque inscribed with its own name. Each pack of dogs are named with a theme in mind, like copper, silver, and gold for metals, and another pack were named after planets so they were called Venus, Mars and Pluto (even though technically Pluto is no longer a planet!). Giving them a theme makes remembering their names so much easier, something which can be difficult when the owners have over 100 dogs to look after!
MORE: Longyearbyen: The World's Northernmost Town
The first thing we had to do was gather the husky dogs to the sleds, which was actually more difficult than driving the team of huskies (also known as 'mushing') because they are so powerful and energetic. We did this by securing the dogs between our legs before putting on its harness, here you're able to discover who the really intelligent dogs are because they'll lift up their paws and almost dress themselves (I was seriously impressed by this as you can imagine!). However, most of the time the dogs were too excited and jumped up and down every time I tried to put on their harness.
Dog husky sledding in Spitsbergen (The Culture Map)
Interestingly, the most intelligent dogs are strategically placed at the front of the sled as they are the ones who essentially direct where the other dogs needs to go, and the back dogs are the strongest ones and are therefore usually the biggest in the pack.
Once the slapstick task of getting the dogs attached to the sled had been accomplished we were ready to go. I was standing at the back of the cart holding onto the handlebars and my friend Katie was sitting in the front seat probably feeling more scared than I was because she was putting her trust in my ability to steer the dogs. An ability which I had no previous experience of doing.
To make driving easier, we were provided with three easy to follow commands, they were:
Gee: meaning turn to the right
Haw: meaning turn to the left
Whao: meaning stop
I was probably erring on the side of caution as the noise or word I used the most was 'Whao' which is supposed to be spoken in a really, deep stern voice. I was really impressed by how responsive the dogs were to my commands but admittedly, I didn't want to take any chances so I was also quite liberal with using my breaks! During our safari I noticed other people using teams of husky dogs and was later told that some of the locals keep a few for private to use as a mode of transport. Living in such a unique and protected place the dogs can be preferable to cars or snowmobiles because they don't damage the environment with the release of carbon emissions.
However, the dogs did release their own gas… yep that's right, the dogs kept farting in our faces as they ran gleefully along Adventdalen, and it especially hit poor Katie who was sitting right behind them on the seat in front of me! But as we turned around to return back to camp, Katie and I switched places so it was time for me to endure my share of doggy pooping which was further accentuated by the speed we were travelling at. Aside from the wiffy presents that the dogs kept generously dropping, it was really spectacular sitting back on a seat shaped like a deck chair, enjoying the supremely beautiful Arctic scenery of snow-capped mountains, clear sky and the odd reindeer.

But this is no ordinary academic debate. Thanks to a series of high-profile court cases, the question of Asian and, specifically, Muslim grooming gangs has become an incendiary issue. Quilliam and its chairman, Maajid Nawaz, divide opinion.
As is the case in the rest of the Muslim world, their efforts have also been aimed at the field of education. At first, in the early s, education was restricted to the mosque schools, but quickly, through individual or collective initiatives, both local and provincial, a number of private Arabic or Sino-Arabic schools, as well as many institutes, have opened all over the country. During the surveys we carried out in and in the provinces of Xinjiang, Gansu, Ningxia, Henan, Yunnan and in Hainan, we were able to observe the extraordinary growth of this Muslim teaching 4.
Police are probing a possible hate crime after scissors-wielding suspect allegedly attacks sixth-grader's headscarf. Police in the Canadian city of Toronto are investigating a possible hate crime after an year-old Muslim girl was attacked by a man who allegedly tried to cut off her hijab twice on her way to school. Sixth-grade student Khawlah Noman was walking with her younger brother on Friday near the Pauline Johnson Public School in Toronto when a man holding scissors came from behind and started cutting her headscarf, the victim said.
Vendors sell clothing at a stall in a textile market in Jakarta, Indonesia, on Thursday, Aug. Indonesia is expected to release second-quarter gross domestic product figures on Aug. Young Southeast Asian Muslim women are more cosmopolitan and global and yet more religiously observant compared with the older generation of female Muslims, according to a recent study.
The scale of the street grooming crisis in the UK almost defies belief. Hundreds of girls and young women were raped in the city of Rotherhamand hundreds by similar exploitation rings in RochdalePeterboroughNewcastleOxfordand Bristol. Now, up to a thousand girls are thought to have been drugged, raped, and beaten in Telford between the s and the s.
Across the world stage, policymakers and journalists envision an ideal Muslim girl as someone equipped with the most effective tool for fighting against their own oppressive local patriarchies and cultures—an education. Shenila Khoja-Moolji. University of California Press.
Large red characters on the facade urge people to learn Chinese, study law and acquire job skills. Guards make clear that visitors are not welcome. Abdusalam Muhemet, 41, said the police detained him for reciting a verse of the Quran at a funeral.
Research that focuses on the home as a physical activity setting appears preoccupied with measuring activity. What is less researched is how the home is experienced as a physical activity context. This paper explores the physical activity experiences in and around the home of 13 South Asian, Muslim young women.

Aladdin Movie INFO
Release Date: 2019-05-22
Rating: 8
Aladdin (2019) Full Movie is an Adventure, Comedy, Family Film directed by Guy Ritchie. The Film based on the Arabic folktale of the same name from One Thousand and One Nights. "Aladdin online HD movie" is scheduled to be theatrically released in the United States on May 24, 2019. One of Disney's classics will soon be offered a second youth. Exit the animated format, this time, "Aladdin Full Movie" will take the form of a traditional feature film, populated by actors whose reputation is second to none (Will Smith) and leading roles in famous figures unknown to us. Aladdin and Jasmine will be camped respectively by Mena Massoud and Naomi Scott. While waiting to discover this unprecedented reinterpretation, expected in American cinemas as early as May 24 , it is proposed a video unpublished. Short but intense, it allows among other things to discover a majestic Agrabah, and a different Genius .
A retouched Genius?
Much criticized at the time of his presentation, the companion of "Aladdin Download Full Movie" will be played by a bloated Will Smith, claiming to have drawn his inspiration tinged with a pinch of James Brown and a touch of hip-hop. In any case, the visual result of Smith Genius XXL did not fail to astonish, from where the last touch-ups that one imagines operated in urgency by Disney, to discover here. Last March, Aladdin 's first long – running trailer was presented. To discover if it was not done, he would line up the plans on the Agrabah market, the arrival of Jafar and Aladdin in front of the Genius Cave, and the meeting between the young man and his new blue friend. 27 years after the release of the original film in the dark rooms, it seems in any case that the magic is again at the rendezvous. Directed by Guy Ritchie, Aladdin version 2019 could even do better than his model , which had in the early 90s accumulated $ 504 million in revenue worldwide.
