It's #foodcoma time! These powerhouse patties are an explosion bomb, packed with fresh flavor and great nutrients. I always loved patties since childhood. My mum used to revamp it every single time with different veggies and different herbs to make our meals more exciting! Yes, I get these genes from her. A lot has changed in my life since I have attained motherhood. When it comes to food, I try to eat healthier stuff, more superfood and introduce the same to my child by alternating the favors. To my surprise my 2 year old mini bomb loves it too!
These patty is quite literally everything. The delicious concoction of nutritious veggies, the lushness from the fresh herbs and the abundance of super-food all comes together to create a firework of amazing flavors. All this complemented with a zippy yogurt sauce, it is phenomenal.
So just when you were pondering what to eat with your cup of tea during monsoons, we've got a quick and easy solution for you!
INGREDIENTS: (makes 8 – 10 pieces)
For the patty:
- 1/2 cup uncooked quinoa
- 2 cups spinach leaves
- 1/2 cup grated carrot
- 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tsp chili flakes
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/4 tsp lemon zest
- 4 tbsp olive oil, for cooking the patty
- salt, to taste
- freshly crushed black pepper, to taste
For the dip:
- 120 grams plain Greek Yoghurt (I used Epigamia Yogurt)
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- salt, to taste
For the patty:
- Cook the quinoa as instructed in the package. Once cooked, fluff it with a fork and keep it aside.
- Meanwhile, blanch the spinach leaves and once blanched, run it under cold water. Roughly chop it and keep it aside.
- In a bowl, mix chopped onion, grated carrot, chopped spinach leaves, chopped basil leaves, parsley, chili flakes, garlic and lemon zest and mix it with a spoon.
- Add cooked quinoa, lightly beaten egg, salt and pepper and mix the mixture using your hand.
- Lastly add the Panko bread crumbs and completely mix the patty mixture. Keep it in the fridge for 20 – 30 minutes.
- Take out the patty mixture from the fridge and using an ice-cream scoop, take a scoop of the mixture, roll it and slightly flatten it.
- Repeat the process for the remaining mixture. Keep the balls in the fridge for another 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile take a flat pan and put it on medium heat. Spray 1/2 tbsp of oil.
- Now put the patty on the pan, drizzle some oil on the patty and allow it to cook until its crisp and golden brown on each side.
- Repeat the process for all the patty and keep it aside.
For the dip:
- Take Greek yogurt in a bowl. Whisk it slightly using a wire whisk.
- Add lemon and salt and mix it with a spoon.
- Keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
Now place the patty in a platter along with the dip and serve immediately!

Saturn opposite Mars
You two have a hard time getting matched up in terms of your energies and your emotions. When your lover is feeling tuned in and affectionate, wanting to connect on an intimate level, you're cool and aloof, emotionally unavailable. Your sexual rhythms are off, and your timing isn't the best in terms of finding times to do it when you're both revved up and ready to go.
As a result, your partner, especially, could end up feeling rejected and unloved. So why the disconnect? It isn't for lack of interest or wanting to make it work between you. Something just stands in the way of making that happen. Your own shortcomings are projected onto each other; you get mad at each other for possessing the qualities that you like least in yourselves. You may even start to represent something to each other that you don't like or respect. If you see your lover behaving irresponsibly, for example, it upsets you, because you want so much to be responsible. You could even go so far as to try to force them to behave how you want them to -- but that doesn't work. They just rebel against the attempts to control them, which could lead to indiscriminate behavior in the name of pure rebellion, which, of course, doesn't solve anything. At base, you're afraid of being rejected and your partner is scared of being repressed -- both of which feel terrible. You have to struggle to learn to let each other be the people you are.

Update: As we improve our systems for maintenance we have taken the decision to run maintenance on Monday, Wednesday and Friday with the aim to eventually move to Tuesday and Thursday only.
Driss (PvP) and Kubo (PvE) will have maintenance at 13:00 GMT / 14:00 CET / 09:00 EDT / 06:00 PDT on Mon, Weds and Fri. (Updated to reflect time zone change on 28/10/18.)
New users will be prevented from logging in at 30 minutes before maintenance is scheduled to start and players already logged in will be notified that maintenance will begin in 30 mins.
Maintenance will usually last around 30-45 mins.
So, put in your calendars, write it on your hand, graffiti it on your favourite pet…whatever you need to do.
This scheduled downtime should not have a negative impact on the progress of your characters and may result in only the smallest of changes to the world/ships.
We'd recommend not making any significant upgrades AND logging out before the server kicks you 10 minutes prior to the servers being shut down.
Note: this time may change in future – we will notify you if this is the case.

Another kind of revolution...Regional info/economyPosted by Uvner Business Consulting Fri, May 20, 2011 11:11:54
learned that sometimes during this spring the mobile telephony has passed the
fixed line network both in number of minutes and in revenue. It is only 30
years ago, 1981, the first analogue mobile nework (NMT called) was opened in
Sweden. And not long before that there were serious
estimations made in the Swedish PTT
about how many people really would need a mobile phone. 75 persons I
think the estimations was. "Who would like to carry a big box around" as one
director said.
Ericsson, now the biggest company in mobile phone networks in the world, can thank a few "stubborn" guys that they managed to convince the management to spend a few bucks on cellular development. And it took some time before the switching department in Ericsson had been convinced that there was any business in adapting the AXE switches for the mobile systems.
Going back to my favorite region, Southeast Europe, I remember vividly how I was trying to get through to Ericsson HQ in Stockholm from hotel Kempinski in Sofia when I was selling the first Bulgarian NMT system to Mobitel. It could take half a day of dialing before I got through. And this was as late as 1993. Not even 20 years ago.
A big thanks to the visionaries in Ericsson and Televerket.

If you aren't familiar, I throw a monthly Caribbean party with Deidre Dyer and Cherie Camacho called "Ting N Ting," both myself and DJ Kellz are the resident Dj's and when I tell we have a time...we have a time! This was our first Ting and Ting outside of NYC so we were pretty stoked to team up with Miami's own Norma Now for her Sundaze party.
Not only did we have a blast but we had the one and only Benji B of BBC Radio kick it off the right way with 30 minutes of pure bashment tunes before I hit the stage. We danced until we couldn't anymore! Until next time Miami...Check out the picks below!

Stanford University might dismay those who have chosen sides in the low-fat versus low-carbohydrate diet debate.
"Over one year, the low-fat group lost 12 pounds on average", he tells EndocrineWeb, and "group following the low carb diet lost about 13 pounds".
Still, despite these varied results, searchers found no link between one diet and weight loss, over another. That's similar to what other studies have found, but there's an interesting wrinkle. Some dropped upward of 60 pounds, while others gained close to 15 or 20 pounds. Insulin response and DNA don't seem to make a difference.
What does this study tell us?
The study was covered reasonably accurately in the United Kingdom media. For example, a fizzy drink may be low-fat, but it's certainly not healthy.
"Carbohydrates have been deemed "fattening" and "unhealthy" when in actual fact, the science behind carbohydrates is quite complex, and demonising an entire food group is not wise", warns Rhiannon Lambert, leading Harley Street nutritionist and author of Re-Nourish: A Simple Way To Eat Well.
What kind of research was this?
Can't wait to see how copywriters work epigenetics into their taglines.
What did the research involve?
Besides genetic testing, the participants were also given a test to measure whether they were "insulin resistant", that is, whether or not the individual's body responds properly to the hormone insulin, which governs how easily the person absorbs glucose from food. Each group was instructed to maintain the diet for one year. The sessions were run by registered dietitians.
One of the key aspects of the study was ensuring that all of the participants did eat healthily throughout. In all, 241 participants on the low-fat diet and 238 individuals on the low-carb diet finished the study.
After two months they then began gradually increasing their daily carbohydrate or fat intake in small amounts in order to reach a sustainable balance. The academics believe this is because some are more suited to different types of diet as their bodies are better at burning off carbs or fat.
Rather than leave the results to chance, the researchers tested the participants for genetic differences that might influence whether their weight was associated with too many carbohydrates or too much fat. They were put on either a low-carbohydrate or low-fat diet for a year.
Instead of imposing strict food or caloric restrictions, participants were asked to cut down to no more than 20 grams (0.7 ounces) of fat or carbs a day for the first two months.
The only difference between the groups was in lipid levels in the blood.
"In any weight loss diets, adherence to the diet and the overall quality of the diet are probably more important than any other factors", said Hu.
What they did find, though, was that cutting down on sugar and refined flower while upping your intake of vegetables and wholefoods would lead to weight loss.
The theory that some diets work better for some people may still hold true - but not for the reasons previously suggested. Or there may be genetic variations at work - just not the ones that have been identified as potential explanations so far. After, they were allowed to increase their consumption to more manageable amounts for the remainder of the study.
In short, we hypothesized that we would be able to use information from previous studies of the past decade to come up with factors that we could test that would help determine which diet is better for whom.

Let's just state facts here: Fewer performers have had a better run in WWE in as short of a time than AJ Styles. The Phenomenal One has only been with the company since January 2016, and since then, he's had marquee feuds with Roman Reigns, John Cena and Dean Ambrose (and, uh, James Ellsworth), and he's held both the WWE World Championship and the U.S. Championship two times each. Let's also not forget his stellar matches at back-to-back WrestleManias, against Chris Jericho and Shane McMahon. Hell, that's how we got this killer GIF.
Well, those Mania opponents were nothing compared to what is currently being hinted at by WWE itself: Shinsuke Nakamura. Last night, as the Smackdown Live crew ended their European tour in Florence Italy, Styles defended the WWE Championship in the main event against both Nakamura and Jinder Mahal. Following Styles' victory, with the crowd going wild, this happened:

Design and Evaluation of a Computer-Assisted Management Information System for Secondary Schools.
Design and Evaluation of a Computer-Assisted Management Information System for Secondary Schools. - Download this document for free, or read online. Document in PDF available to download.
This book describes the design and evaluation of a computer-based information system for secondary schools in The Netherlands. It reports on three studies: (1) a pilot study; (2) the SCHOLIS project, which designed a computer-assisted system for school administration; and (3) the evaluation of the implementation of a computer-assisted Absentee Registration System (ARS). Following the introduction, chapter 2 discusses the rationale for the SCHOLIS project and describes a pilot study that examined available administrative software, new developments, and the effects of introducing computer-assisted school administration. Chapters 3 through 6 describe the goals and project activities of SCHOLIS, the design strategy, and design results. The sixth chapter reflects on the merits and demerits of the design strategy. Chapters 7 through 9 evaluate implementation of one of the SCHOLIS modules, the Absentee Registration System. A summary of results and their implications are included in the final chapter. Educators who wish to replicate the system should also consider the school decision-making processes and organizational features unique to their school. Program success would also be enhanced by government support, further research, and training for school administrators in the skills necessary for computer-supported policy formation. Twenty-five tables and nine figures are included. Appendices contain diagrams, information on the activities of absentee registration, interaction of the school system with the environment, an overview of the diagram hierarchy, glossary, and list of variables/indicators. The book concludes with a Dutch summary. (Contains 116 references.) (LMI)

POONJAJI (Papaji)
1910 - 1997
Papaji is the Lion of Lucknow who roared and woke us up out of our deep slumber.
In the last years of his long life countless seekers realised the Eternal Self at his daily Satsang amidst gales of laughter, tempered by the awareness that at any moment the sword could strike.
"Only the Truth is and you are That!
You are the unchanging awareness in which all activity takes place.
To deny this is to suffer, to know this is Freedom."
Go to Papaji Satsang
1879 - 1950
At the age of 17 Ramana Maharshi experienced a spontaneous awakening. He travels to Arunachala where he spends his whole life. Hismost profound teaching is silence. However he is well known for the question "Who am I?"
"The pure Self is not realised unless the mind subsides. The mind is nothing but a bundle of thoughts and the first and foremost of all thoughts is the primal "I" thought. Therefore only through the enquiry "Who am I"? does the mind subside. To keep the mindconstantly turned within and to abide thus in the Self is alone Self enquiry."
Sri Ramana Maharshi
Go to Ramana's Teaching
1931 - 1990
The fifteen years spent with Osho were richly productive, taking a yuppy architect on a journey inside through meditation and transformational workshops, much was understood. Osho was left sweetly one night by laying a rose on the Buddha Hall podium, the heart of the ashram.

Conception preparation or preconception is the most important step when planning for a healthy pregnancy and baby. This is the time when attention is given to the influence that genetic information has on the health of the future child.
Just as sports people need to prepare for an important sporting event, so too is it essential for prospective parents to optimise their wellbeing for the best possible chances of a healthy baby..
It is of the utmost importance that consideration be given to the wellbeing of the male partner prior to conception. Diet, lifestyle and environmental factors play an enormous role in the development of healthy, viable sperm.
Sperm is generated during the preconception period and is extremely vulnerable to physiological hazards and environmental toxins present during this time. It takes approximately 72-76 days (2-3 months) for sperm to develop, mature, be stored and ready for ejaculation. Hence, due regard should always be given to the influence this period of time has on the health of the embryo, foetus, baby and child.
Joanne at BabyCreate, who has 20 years' experience in this area of fertility, will structure a comprehensive consultation which will include investigations and analyses to fully assess your individual health and fertility status.
Joanne will tailor a unique treatment programme specifically for you that will incorporate evidence-based nutrients and traditionally used herbs and supplements.
She will work together with you and your partner to guide, advise and support you with the adjustments you may have to make to modify your diet and lifestyle to improve your health and wellbeing and influence the role you will play in the outcome of your healthy baby.

Slieve Gullion Complex, Palaeogene intrusive centre, Northern Ireland
|Mitchell, W I (ed.). 2004. The geology of Northern Ireland-our natural foundation. Geological Survey of Northern Ireland, Belfast.
M R Cooper and T P Johnston
Slieve Gullion Complex
The Slieve Gullion Complex represents the 'root' zone of a now deeply eroded volcanic caldera [1] that intruded the southwest end of the Caledonian Newry Igneous Complex (P947865) at about 58–56Ma [2][3]. The highest point, Slieve Gullion (573 m), lies at the centre of an 11 km diameter, circular igneous complex intruded into a circular ring fault (P948036). The Complex consists of three distinct units (P947870) with the earliest intrusion of silicic magma forming an almost complete ring that was associated with high level explosive activity. In the centre of the complex, and forming Slieve Gullion, a later, sheeted complex consists of flat-lying silicic and basic layers. The final intrusive phase is a granite stock that is confined to the southeast part of the complex.
The Slieve Gullion Ring Dyke marks the outer edge of the intrusive complex and forms a circle of hills up to 300 m high (P948037) composed mainly of porphyritic felsite and porphyritic granophyre [4]. The ring dyke encloses two generations of earlier formed gabbro/dolerite intrusions and olivine basalt, trachyte and tuffs which were the earliest eruptive products of the Slieve Gullion 'volcano'. Evidence of subsequent explosive activity occurs near Forkill in the form of vents, containing agglomerate consisting mainly of fragments of brecciated granodiorite from the Newry Igneous Complex and Lower Palaeozoic country rock together with large foundered rafts of the older basalt and trachyte lavas. In the main part of the ring dyke the porphyritic felsite pre-dates the porphyritic granophyre and cross-cuts the vent agglomerates. The felsite is restricted to the southwest part of the ring where its outcrop varies in width from 100 m to 1.5 km. Well-developed flow banding in the outer margins of the ring dyke indicates that it is a sheet structure which intrudes a pre-existing ring fracture dipping steeply to the southwest. The porphyritic granophyre forms a more pronounced ring structure and post-dates and intrudes the felsite west of Mullaghbane (P947871). Linear zones of crush brecciation, the Camlough Breccias [1] affect the Newry Granodiorite, porphyritic granophyre of the ring dyke and post-granophyre aplites in the northwest quadrant of the Slieve Gullion Complex. Cam Lough lies at the northern edge of the complex along a dextral strike-slip fault which displaces the porphyritic granophyre ring dyke horizontally for about 2 km. East of the Camlough Fault the steeply inclined intrusive contact between porphyritic granophyre of the ring dyke and Silurian and Newry Granodiorite country rocks is exposed in Cam Lough quarry (P948038) [J 037 246].
At the centre of Slieve Gullion, the Layered Complex post-dates the ring dyke and consists of at least 13 alternating units of silicic and basic rock[4]. The layered nature of these rocks finds strong topographic expression on the west side of Slieve Gullion, and on Foughill [J 042 181] and Carrickarnan [J 080 181] straddling the Newry-Dundalk road. The Layered Complex was interpreted initially as a succession of rhyolitic and basaltic lava flows, sills, acid tuffs and agglomerates that accumulated on the floor of a caldera [5]. Their subsequent transformation to the present assemblage, which includes rocks with gabbroic and granitic textures, was presumed to be the result of pneumatolytic and hydrothermal alteration during late-stage volcanic activity. A reinterpretation of these rocks now concludes that they represent a protolith of granodiorite of the late Caledonian Newry Igneous Complex that was altered, first by intrusion of granophyre sheets and then by a more basic magma [6]. This concept supported the fact that not all contacts between the acidic and basic sheets are flat-lying. On the north flank of Slieve Gullion they possess a steep, wall-like relationship and, in the north of the complex, the Lislea Granophyre is regarded as a peripheral ring dyke intrusion continuous with the upper (laccolithic) granophyre layers of the central complex.
The final major magmatic event at Slieve Gullion was the intrusion of a granite stock in the southeastern part of the complex. Exposures on Clermont [J 098 171] and Anglesey Mountain [J 104 176] are of greyish green granophyric microgranite with iron-rich clinopyroxene as the dominant mafic mineral. The stock cuts both the porphyritic granophyre of the ring dyke and layers of the sheeted complex but is cut by basaltic cone sheets associated with the Carlingford Complex.

text: Tuesday's clash was one of the deadliest in recent months The US military said on Wednesday that about 20 suspects and one Afghan police officer were killed in a bloody battle in the mountains of southeastern Afghanistan on Tuesday. Six US soldiers were also wounded in Tuesday's clash, which occurred in Dehchopan district of Zabul province, the military said in a statement. It said helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft joined the fight against a group of about 25 insurgents. The casualty figures were still preliminary, the statement said, adding that five Afghan police officers were wounded, and six insurgents were detained and questioned. It said the wounded US soldiers were in stable condition, and two had returned to duty. The four others were to be flown to a US military hospital in Germany for treatment. Zabul lies in a swath of Afghan territory along the border with Pakistan, where Taliban-led fighters opposed to the government of US-backed President Hamid Karzai have revived their three-year-old insurgency after a winter lull.

Is your paint job looking a little weathered or tired? Got a scratch or a ding on one of your parts that is driving you crazy? Today is your lucky day, I just finished custom painting this set of tins for the VTX1300c! Fits all years of this model. These parts were in near perfect condition before I did the prep work. The four rivets on the front fender have been ground off, and the bracket has been welded to the fender for a cleaner look. The basecoat is a custom gun metal gray, with blue pinstripes and drop shadows. Five coats of clear in total on this job, everything has been color sanded and buffed and is slick as snot! Comes with a lifetime warranty. You can buy chrome side covers off of eBay, or I will paint yours in the gunmetal color to match at no additional charge. The price is $1400 to the lower 48 states, which will include outbound shipping on these parts from my location. My price assumes you have a reasonable condition set of OEM parts to send back to me, and you will be responsible for the shipping cost associated for sending your parts back to me. A core charge of $600 applies if you intend to keep your parts, and must be paid in advance before I ship these parts out, even if you are sending me back your parts. Once I get your parts back I will refund the core charge. If you'd like to see more of my work, please don't send me a friend request as I do not post my work on my personal page. Instead, search for my business page (BD's Cycles) here on Facebook, "like" it to keep up with my current custom paint work! I accept PayPal and personal checks. If you have any questions feel free to call me at 704-607-9153

Credit Report Errors
A difficult financial situation can be made much worse by errors in your credit report, and these errors are more common than you think: one study from February 2013 found that out of 200 million Americans who had credit reports, up to 40 million (about 20%) had errors in their reports. These included mixed credit files, public records mistakes, incorrect employment reports, incorrect collection amounts, and identity theft.
It is highly recommended to obtain your free copy of your credit report on an annual basis to ensure its accuracy, as errors can significantly harm your credit score, and the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) allows you to submit a dispute for investigation and receive results within thirty (30) days in most cases.
If you believe that a credit reporting bureau has not taken the necessary steps to correct errors on your credit report, contact an experienced attorney for a free consultation.

At about this point near the end of every political campaign, it is customary for newspapers to endorse candidates for election on the basis of their qualifications. We'll now try our hand at this, making endorsements of candidates for Trustee.
Candidate Joe Streany makes his argument that his 38 years as a volunteer firefighter makes him eminently qualified to serve in the Village Board of Trustees. If that reasoning were valid, the Village Board of Trustees would be entirely composed of a majority of veteran firefighters year in and year out.
A major problem posed by Mr. Streany's candidacy is that he comes before the public with a load of unsavory baggage trailing behind him. In his employment as an executive of the Metro North Commuter Railroad, he was not above putting the arm on contractors whose contracts with the railroad he supervised. He claims that the money squeezed from them went to a nonprofit organization he had formed, the high school booster club, but that organization was not recognized as a nonprofit organization by the I.R.S. until long after he had squeezed graft from the contractors (See: "Will the Real Joe Streany Please Stand Up?").
Moreover, in discussions about the settlement he made with New York State's Ethics Commission, he insisted that he was forbidden to discuss the case. The settlement agreement he signed with the Commission to avoid prosecution told quite a different story. Mr. Streany isn't even a good liar (See: "Joe Streany, P.O.P.* A True Story").
Given the opportunity to look out for the Village's environmental interests in a dispute with the railroad over chemically treated railroad ties dumped by the railroad in the Croton Marsh, Mr. Streany defended the railroad's refusal to remove them (See: "Joe Streany, Environmentalist?").
Instead of allowing four young women to join a program designed to integrate young people into a raining program for firefighters, in contravention of New York State's civil rights law Mr. Streany as First Assistant Fire Chief engaged in outright sexism and expelled them from the program because they were women. Only a determined campaign waged by the young women and their mothers forced Mr. Streany to obey the law and allow them to join the program (See: "Joe Streany, Sexist Opponent of Women's Rights").
Mr. Streany has shown himself to be a veritable bull in a china shop in other situations.
In 2000, when a bond providing much-need expansion of facilities in the school system was put before taxpayers for a vote, it passed but by a narrow margin. A small group of citizens, unhappy with the vote, called attention to a letter improperly written on school letterhead by the schools' Athletic Director, William Thom, and mailed to voters urging them to vote in favor of the improvements. Unfortunately, Mr. Streany had added his flourishing signature to the Thom letter endorsing its forbidden sentiments.
Citing the Thom-Streany letter, opponents of the bond were then able to use the judicial system to delay the improvements for years. By the time construction was ready to begin more than three years later, increased labor and materials costs forced the school system to scale back its plans. Thanks in part to Mr. Streany's ill-advised efforts, Croton's school system paid out more money and got less than it had wanted in the way of improvements. Unlike King Midas for whom everything he touched turned to gold, everything Mr. Streany touches turns to you-know-what. Given Mr. Streany's litany of sins, we feel that electing him to the responsible position of Trustee would be a gamble no one in Croton should be willing to make. Croton simply cannot afford Mr. Streany's elastic moral code.
Now we come to Joann Minett. She has little knowledge of Croton's geography (she thinks 1A Croton Point Avenue is directly on the Hudson River), municipal affairs or Village infrastructure—you name it, she knows little or nothing about it, but is always quite willing to expound on it. Her campaign is based solely on her ten years of contrariness and ill-informed opposition to whatever the Village Board is considering doing. In the words of Groucho Marx, "whatever it is, I'm against it!"
A vote for Joann Minett would consign the Village to two years of totally misinformed opinion, wildly expressed at Board meetings and accompanied by arm-waving theatrics. Admittedly, it would increase the audience for Board meetings in the same way that the crowds attending the funeral of Harry Cohn, much-despised President of Columbia Pictures, caused Red Skelton to observe, "As Harry used to say, 'Give the public a good show, They'll turn out for it!'" Mirroring the nation's economic problems, Croton's troubles are growing too big and too fast for us to afford a two-year period of comic relief.
There are two seats open on the Village Board. Deliberations about Croton's future need the presence of a "loyal opposition" to offset the Republican majority, which is going to do what it wants anyway. The remaining choices, Ann Gallelli, up for reelection after several terms, and first-timer Richard Olver, whose life experience and practical, no-nonsense outlook hold much promise for Croton, are both eminently qualified for the Trustee openings. In nautical terms, the best course now is "steady as she goes," and we endorse the candidacies of Gallelli and Olver, and urge their seating as Trustees. Dyed-in-the-wool Republican readers who can't bring themselves to vote the Democratic line can always pull the levers for the Croton Taxpayers Party.

The poem is something that came to me about 6 months after my sister's sudden death. I found her dead on her bedroom floor when I went in to change her bandages from a recent surgery. A blood clot from that surgery is what killed her. The poem tells my journey through grief – from the initial disbelief to the final acceptance. There is not a day that goes by that I don't miss my best friend.
Missing My Sister And Best Friend
© Belinda Stotler
One morning I found you in eternal sleep;
I tried to wake you as I began to weep,
But all my pleas you could not hear;
Oh if I could have only kept you near,
Away from the voices of those who went before,
Who beckoned you to come to that distant shore.
I find it so very hard to believe
That you have gone and I must grieve;
I call out your name — you answer not,
And I look for you in every familiar spot.
Everything seems so strange and surreal,
I ask everyday is it a dream or real?
Where are the soft brown eyes of affection?
Where is the laughter and talk of childhood reflection?
Where is the loving care when I was sick or sad?
Where is the generous soul for which I was glad?
Where is the forgiving and understanding heart?
Where are the bonds that were there from the start?
I miss all the little ways you showed you cared,
For there were so many good moments we shared;
Looking back on my life's assorted scenes,
I realized you taught me what love truly means;
You were my trusted confidante and best friend,
On whose loving support I could always depend.
I look at your smiling face in all my photos;
Memories flood my mind as I touch the mementos
From the happy times you and I have had,
But now these bring tears and make me sad;
For the time together went by in a wink,
Life was not as long as we'd like to think.
Sometimes memories bring comfort and make me smile,
But there are times when grief takes over for a while;
Friends offer gentle words and prayers to console,
And tell me what has happened to your loving soul;
Can it be true what they say of time healing grief?
Is it enough when they say death has given you relief?
Can we believe what others say of a better place,
Where our beloved ones rest in God's warm embrace?
I should be happy you're free of pain and sorrow,
And rejoice that you'll always have tomorrow.
How can I then be so heartbroken and selfishly cry,
Return to me from that peaceful place where you lie!"
Now I look down at your name on a cold hard stone
That says little of the loving light you have shone;
It tells nothing of the wonderful person you were,
And only serves to remind me of the painful loss I endure;
But I know your kind soul wants no tears or pain,
Instead you'd want warm memories and love to remain.
Although I cry and stand grief-stricken by your grave,
I promise not to forget the loving memories you gave;
But still I miss you so very much my sister dear,
And your caring words I once again long to hear;
My heart's only solace is one day I will see you as before,
Beckoning me to come join you on that white distant shore.

Here is the new mind-blowing cover from UK-based Nigerian producer Eminik. Eminik did excellent justice to Rihanna's latest collaboration with Kanye West and Paul McCartney – "FourFiveSeconds" which is currently topping the charts. There is something different about this cover; Eminik didn't only produce and perform it, but he totally changed the direction of the song and fused it with an EDM (Electronic Dance Music) beat. The cover caught the attention of BBC Radio (Merseyside) and was premiered live on-air on Saturday, 21st of February. This is potentially an impressive masterpiece which you may prefer to the original. Check it out below;

The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity's most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides he's had enough, and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom.

Call me naïve, but when I was first pregnant the idea that came to mind when they asked if I had my hospital bag packed by the front door, was a small rucksack-type bag with a few bits.
However, when the time came for me to start preparing what I needed I was shocked. How could such a short stay in a hospital with me, my husband and our little bundle require so much stuff? When I laid it all out, I needed a big suitcase for a 2-week holiday…not a little rucksack by the door…do you realise how small my hallway is??
Then I realised maybe it wouldn't just be one bag but then maybe 3 or 4 bags!!
- One for me, before birth
- One for me, for after birth
- One for baby
- One for daddy…
And that's not including the 'extras' that I thought I might like, such as the birthing ball and my pillow…oh and the car seat!!!
Blimey, it was a minefield. So to make things easy for you, I have created a simple checklist of what you need to pack for your stay in the hospital when having a baby.
Make sure that you have everything you need for your stay. I have everything covered in this single page checklist, for mum (before and after birth), baby and your birth partner.

"Ada Lovelace was a most unlikely computer pioneer. In this film, Dr Hannah Fry tells the story of Ada's remarkable life. Born in the early 19th century Ada was a countess of the realm, a scandalous socialite and an 'enchantress of numbers'. The film is an enthralling tale of how a life infused with brilliance, but blighted by illness and gambling addiction, helped give rise to the modern era of computing.
Hannah traces Ada's unlikely union with the father of computers, Charles Babbage. Babbage designed the world's first steam-powered computers - most famously the analytical engine - but it was Ada who realised the full potential of these new machines. During her own lifetime Ada was most famous for being the daughter of romantic poet Lord Byron ('mad, bad and dangerous to know'). It was only with the advent of modern computing that Ada's understanding of their flexibility and power (that they could be far more than mere number crunchers) was recognised as truly visionary. Hannah explores how Ada's unique inheritance - poetic imagination and rational logic - made her the ideal prophet of the digital age."
"e. Menura Supurba is an interactive artwork. It explores the paradox between our fascination with the exotic, and our potentially dystopic future devoid of many animal species. The work hybridises seventeenth to early twentieth century aesthetics with refined post consumer waste materials, to create a simulacra of a lyre bird. ...
Individual lyre bird's have been documented making sounds such as camera shutters, flute and piano melodies, even chain saws. This repertoire has value beyond mere curiosity. It is also an interesting gauge of our acoustic environment as it mimics sound pollution – an often overlooked interaction between humanity and the natural world. ...
Once e. Menura Superba has attracted an audience, it shows it's repertoire of plumage colours, recorded from previous encounters with other people. If it recognizes a face, it studies the person's clothes. If the colours are of interest, or the person pays a lot of attention to the sculpture, it will remember the clothing colours, for inclusion in his next display when new people attracted by it's call. Over time, the sculpture develops a repertoire of calls and plumage colours, derived from audience interaction."

"an alternative notion of automation emphasizing the oft–neglected affective dimensions of interactions with machines. Many of al–Jazari's machines were preoccupied with providing visual and highly visceral experiences that were both playful and speculative. It is suggested that the ludic dimensions and, what I call, 'automotive pleasures', of the machinic and automated experiences elicited by al–Jazari's machines have been historically displaced by the increasing constitution of machines as labour–substitutive, instrumental and culturally neutral contraptions."

CD reviews
Johann Melchior MOLTER (1696 - 1765): "Orchestral and Chamber Music"
Nova Stravaganza
Dir: Siegbert Rampe
rec: Jan 2004, Bad Arolsen, Fürstliche Reitbahn
(© 2004) (65'51")
Concerto for oboe, strings and bc in E flat (MWV VI,21); Overture in c minor (MWV III,9); Overture in F (MWV III,13); Sonata for transverse flute and bc in g minor (MWV XI,13); Sonata for violin and bc in f minor, op. 1,6 (MWV XI,6)
In many ways the life of Johann Melchior Molter was characteristic of a German composer of the 17th or 18th century. Like many of his colleagues he received his first musical education from his father, Valentin Molter, who was church musical director and schoolmaster at the village of Tiefenort an der Werra in what is now Thuringia. He then went to Eisenach, where he attended the Gymnasium and was a member of the local choir. In 1717 he entered the service of the Margrave Carl Wilhelm of Baden-Durlach in Karlsruhe. In 1722, just returned from a journey to Italy, Molter was appointed
at the young age of 26. It was often politics which could make or break a composer's career. In 1733 August the Strong, Polish King and Prince Elector of Saxony, died, which led to the outbreak of the Polish War of Succession. Margrave Carl Wilhelm, expecting an attack by the French army, disbanded his court and fled to Basle. As a result Molter lost his job, although he held the title of
This could easily have been the end of a promising career. But Molter was lucky. The next year he was appointed
at Eisenach, where his duties were about the same as those in Karlsruhe. But it was a political event again, which brought his activities in Eisenach to an end. In 1741 Duke Wilhelm Heinrich died, and since he had no children Saxe-Eisenach passed to the Duke of Saxe-Weimar, who dissolved the chapel of Eisenach. Molter returned to Karlsruhe again, where the Margrave had returned in 1735, and regained his old position as
in 1743.
Like many German composers at the time Molter was influenced by both the Italian and the French style. He had become acquainted with the French taste during his time at the Gymnasium at Eisenach. The court orchestra contained several players from France, and it was directed by Georg Philipp Telemann, well-known for his admiration of the French style. In order to be educated in the newest developments in Italian music Molter travelled to Italy twice: first from 1719 to 1721, when he was a member of the court orchestra in Karlsruhe, and then, after being appointed in Eisenach, in 1738.
One could say that Molter was lucky: not only was he able to find appropriate positions, but the conditions under which he worked were ideal. In his first period in Karlsruhe he had an ensemble of 25 singers and instrumentalists at his disposal, with which he was able to perform the many kinds of music he was expected to compose, vocal and instrumental, sacred and secular. In Eisenach, the next stage in his career, the conditions were hardly less favourable. Only the first years of his second period in Karlsruhe were an exception: the financial conditions were such that Molter had only a small number of players to work with. As a result he mainly composed chamber music. Things changed for the better in 1747, when the grandson of Carl Wilhelm, Carl Friedrich, came of age. He asked Molter to develop a plan to reorganize the chapel. This resulted in an ensemble of about 25 singers and players with additional forces if necessary. A number of players were virtuosos on their instruments and some played more than one instrument, including then less common ones like the clarinet and the viola da gamba.
But Molter wasn't just lucky: he was held in high esteem and rated highly as a composer. A contemporary writer put him on one level with the likes of Fux, Telemann and Mattheson. The fact that he was sent to Italy twice - at the cost of his employers - is another indication of his standing, as is the fact that he was appointed
in Karlsruhe at a relatively young age.
Molter composed in almost any genre then in vogue. Unfortunately most of his vocal music has been lost. Therefore this disc only contains instrumental works. Compositions from all stages of his career are represented here. The two Overtures are written in French style - scored for two oboes, bassoon, strings and bc, with two additional horns in the
Overture in F
-, which date from the period in Eisenach. It is interesting to note that both overtures contain only one French dance movement, whereas all other movements are either Italian (allegro) or character pieces. The
Concerto for oboe, strings and bc in E flat
is an entirely Italian piece, which reminds of the concertos by Albinoni.
The solo sonatas date from the first and last stages of Molter's career respectively. The
Sonata for violin and bc in f minor, op. 1,6
is the last of six, which were published before 1723 in Amsterdam as opus 1, and dedicated to the Margrave Carl Wilhelm. Molter was a virtuosic violin player himself, whose skills were even praised in Italy. One may assume these sonatas, which are technically very demanding and show a mixture of the Italian style and German polyphonic writing, were written to be played by himself.
Sonata for transverse flute and bc in g minor
, on the other hand, shows a strong affinity with the sonatas by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. It starts with an expressive adagio, which is followed by an allegro and a minuet with variations. Originally is was written also for the violin, but arranged for the flute, probably for Margrave Carl Wilhelm, who was an avid flute player.
Molter is generally considered a 'minor master'. One may ask whether this does justice to his role in German music history. It is interesting that, whereas most writers tend to think Molter was influenced by the Mannheim school in his later period, Siegbert Rampe, in the liner notes to this recording, suggests it was just the other way round: "It is considerably more probable, however, that Johann Stamitz (1717-57), who was almost one generation younger and also a virtuoso violinist, in fact made borrowings from his Karlsruhe colleague".
Whoever is right, this recording gives ample evidence that Molter is more than a 'minor master'. After paying attention to the music of Graupner with two discs and a third in prospect, Siegbert Rampe has again put a German composer on the map, which so far has only been represented in the catalogue with some of his clarinet and trumpet concertos. It is a shame most of his vocal compositions have been lost. This disc suggests that at least his remaining instrumental music is well worth exploring.
The performances are excellent: the orchestral playing is energetic and lively, and the wind parts - oboes and horns - in the solo concerto and the two overtures are brilliantly executed. Ildikó Kertész and Siegbert Rampe give a particularly fine performance of the flute sonata, which is of high quality and should be part of the repertoire of any flute player. Rampe adds an improvised prelude to this sonata - "as was then the custom, in order to prepare the soloists and listeners for the particular key", as Rampe states in the booklet - as well as to the violin sonata, the only piece on the disc whose performance I am not entirely happy with. Franc Polman produces a sound which is a little thin and lacks colour and depth. I feel that the qualities of this piece are not fully expressed here. This one sonata makes eager to hear the whole set, though.

KS_ManchesterStick with the tried and tested brands. KSpin doctor thread
UrielThis can also explain the "hit and miss" factor associated with certain designers. Unless one has some sort of genetic defect, there's no reason why any anabolic steroid shouldn't work for them, or should work dramatically differently than on other people. We are all different but we're never that different. Those people who say they took like 50mg of epistane and got nothing at all, probably weren't taking epistane at all, or weren't taking anywhere near 50mg, for example.
UrielDon't see how that's possible. The difference between the two is basically one more sulphur atom for the epistane and one less methyl group (CH3). Now sulphur has an atomic weight of 32, vs 12 for carbon and 1 for hydrogen. One sulphur atom weights more than one carbon and three hydrogens, there's no way a given number of molecules of epistane would degrade to phera without losing mass. Are you sure it's not the other way around?
simonboyleEspecially the epi products, as they "degrade" to phera, believe henry v has an article on his blog about this.

"It is absurd that we leave our own gardens at home to till the school garden instead of studying. I came to school to study and not to dig...digging soils our uniforms and yet we have to stay in uniform the whole day." laments Annet Kabugho a primary six pupil while Jimmy Baluku (not real names), a primary five pupil says "I am disappointed in the teachers who make us dig in the morning instead of studying, yet they expect us to pass like pupils in other schools. We use a lot of energy in the morning and yet stay hungry all day since the school doesn't provide lunch and few of the pupils can afford to pack lunch. It is not easy to work and study on an empty stomach every day. I am forced to doze off in the afternoon because of the fatigue, hunger and heat"
Annet Kabugho conveying her message in a song during the Neighbourhood Assembly.
These are the voices of pupils at Kinyamaseka primary school in Munkunyu Sub County, Kasese district that had for the past 6 months been subjected to tilling the school farm instead of studying. According to monitoring reports by KALI (an IDF grantee) working in the area, a total of 560 pupils (286 males&304 females) between primary three and seven classes worked on the school's 4 acre maize farm every morning from 8:00am to 11:00am. This is more than a half of the school because the school's enrolment is of 753 pupils (371 males and 382 females).
Whereas the introduction of school gardens initiative by SNV (where the school gardens work as demonstration gardens) is good because it is geared at promoting food productivity at house hold level and also provide food for the teachers; the practice is cheating children of their study hours which will consequently lead to poor grades. Monitoring reports indicated that pupil absenteeism had gone high especially in the morning hours, as most pupils tended to stay at home for fear of working on the school garden. According to the head teacher, Mr. Bathlemew the initial strategy of school gardening looked at parents as the source of labor but because of their limited support towards school activities, the school resorted to using the pupils partly because the garden is the school's agriculture demonstration garden. "...this is a demonstration farm for agriculture lessons, and community farmers; it is a source of income for the school and food for the teachers" the head teacher noted.
Worried about the future of their children, parents used Kinyamaseke Tukolerehaghuma Women Association (KITWA) Neighbourhood Assembly (NA) sitting on 12th May 2014 to discuss their grievances and appeal to the sub county leaders (the LCIII Chairman Hon. Josephat Bwambale and the Sub County Chief Mr. Biminya Francis) present to intervene and ban child labour at Kinyamaseke primary school. "I am disappointed at the way the school is exploiting our children, using them on the farm during the best hours of the day when they would be concentrating in class. Some pupils have started dodging school because they fear to participate in this mandatory activity- this must stop" asserted Sadik a parent, during the neighbourhood assembly. Responding to the parents' concern, the LCIII Chairman and the Sub County Chief condemned the act saying it was pushing children out of school instead of encouraging them to study. They promised to work with the school to stop this ugly practice with immediate effect. Speaking at the assembly, the head teacher apologised to the parents for this practice and also promised to stop it immediately. He however asked parents to support this school project and provide labour in any way they can.
KALI has since been visiting the school to follow up on their commitment to end child labour and to sensitize the teachers and school management to devise other means of finding labour for the farming activities at the school. KALI learnt that the school has stopped this practice; children are now attending classes regularly from morning to evening without disruption.
Neighbourhood assemblies are community based forums composed of community members and local leaders who sit regularly to discuss pertinent issues affecting their community and also suggest/identify solutions to them. KALI is using this neighbourhood assembly strategy to implement its IDF funded project "promoting human rights and good governance in Kasese".

Abbie Gardner and Jim Henry
October 15th 8PM $20
Abbie and Jim have both appeared at the Circle of Friends Coffeehouse many times, but not together. You loved Abbie when she performed at the coffeehouse as a part of Red Molly. Jim has appeared with Tracy Grammer, Eliza Gilkyson, and his own band The Surly Temple.
This will be a magical night and we hope you can join us.
Abbie Gardner
, the fiery Dobro player with an infectious smile has been touring with Americana darlings
Red Molly
for the past eleven years. After gracing stages from Denver to Denmark, from Australia to Austin, the band decided to take an indefinite hiatus in 2015, so Abbie is striking out on her own! No stranger to solo performing, she has three CDs to draw from, each with award-winning songs. Tales of love and loss, both gritty and sweet, ride the back of her by-now familiar, formidable slide guitar licks. She channels Lucinda and Bonnie, but remains pure Abbie.
"With a confidence that can only be earned, Gardner bursts out with a national steel guitar and a ballsy blues on the opening cut "Break It Slow." It's an unprecedented romp, fully of gnarly guitar lines and lyrics reminiscent of Lucinda Williams or Bonnie Raitt.."
– Eli Peterson, Twangville
Jim Henry
is an American folk singer/songwriter and world-
class multi-instrumentalist. At center stage, whether as a solo artist or leading a band, Jim delivers his finely crafted original songs with a smooth, rich baritone voice and engaging story telling and humor.
As a sideman, on a variety of electric or acoustic guitars, or on mandolin or dobro, Jim can render emotional sensitivity in one moment then tear into a rock or country solo with such fire it's hard to catch your breath. He is a master of adding whatever is needed at any musical moment.
He has produced, recorded, played and traveled the world with Mary Chapin Carpenter, Paula Cole, Shawn Colvin, Alison Krauss, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Los Lobos, Alseep at the Wheel, Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings, The Weepies, Deb Talan, Eliza Gilkyson, Tracy Grammer, Susan Werner, The Boxcar Lilies...the list goes on and on.
Here is a video of them together.

So far behind the doors of my advent calendar, I've brought you free online stories, free ebooks downloads, and free audio narratives. Today I'm hoping to blow your bloody multi-media doors off with another freebie – a link to an all-action trailer for one of my novels, Perfect World, which was created by my publishers TWB Press.
You can watch it here.
Grizzled journalist Toby Howitt, a man who shuns violence and conflict, sets out on a mission to interview God. Sources say He's living in the mansion at Elegant Gardens. But God isn't the god He used to be, and Elegant harbors a few secrets of its own, secrets that thrust Howitt into the fight of his life to save the Perfect World God created.
And you can download the ebook here.
