How do you make 3,000 bierocks? With a lot of help
Six hours and about 350 pounds of flour into their job, the trio of women making dough for the more than 3,000 bierocks being assembled that day were only halfway done.
But progress was definitely being made during the recent bierocks-making bonanza at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church in west Wichita in preparation for the church's 32nd annual fall bazaar from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
Along one kitchen counter, dough was rising in about a half-dozen stainless steel rectangular bins covered with plastic wrap. Some showed signs of having already been punched down and were rising again for a second and final such process.
In a corner of the cafeteria outside the kitchen, Natalie Jackson was pulling chunks of readied dough from one of the bins. She was preparing to shape each chunk into about a 6-inch, saucer-shaped mound that another set of volunteers would run through a machine that flattens the dough. During last-year's bierocks-making day, she had the job of running each mound of dough through the machine three times.
Nearby, Megan Luke was taking a flattened disk and rolling it out even more.
"We want them to be about one-fourth of an inch thick," said Tricia Miller, who has organized the church's bazaar bierocks-making efforts for the past few years. "We don't want them to be see-through or break open."
A bierock (pronounced beer-rock) is an ethnic German meat pastry consisting of a pocket of slightly sweet yeast dough filled with a meat mixture of savory cooked ground beef, onions, cabbage and spices, and baked.
After rolling out the dough to the prescribed 1/4 inch, Luke used a 4-by-4-inch template to cut squares, filled each square with about 2/3 of a cup of the savory meat mixture she and other volunteers had cooked the night before, pulled up the corners to the middle and pinched the seams together. The template and laminated bierocks-making instructions are supposed to help volunteers create more uniform meat pastries, but some different shapes and sizes do creep in, Miller noted.
After three years of working on the bierocks crew, Luke was an old hand at it.
That wasn't the case for Dray Aguilar, however.
"I've never made them before," said Aguilar, who was diligently reading the instructions and taking her time making her first bierocks. "I've only eaten them."
She had signed up for three two-hour shifts that day – spending 10 a.m. to noon making bierocks, then washing dishes from noon to 2 p.m., and then back to bierocks-making duties for her last shift. As she glanced at an older woman at another table who was sealing her creation with a unique twisting motion of the four corners, she said enviously, "She's got some mad skills."
200 number of volunteers it takes to make 3,000 bierocks
800 pounds of ground beef
400 pounds of cabbage
700 pounds of flour
The bierocks assembled during the day were partially baked, filling the cafeteria and the hallways outside it with the comforting smell of baking bread. Tables along one wall of the cafeteria were filled with trays of cooling, light golden-colored meat pastries.
Later that day, along another wall of tables, volunteers packaged the cooled bierocks to be taken to a commercial freezer for storage until Friday, when they will be trucked back to the church.
In all, it took about 200 volunteers from the church at 645 N. 119th St. West nearly two days – more than a half-day cooking the meat mixture and the next day making the dough, assembling and partial baking – to make more than 3,000 bierocks for its fall bazaar on Saturday. They used 800 pounds of ground beef, 400 pounds of cabbage, 80 pounds of onions, 700 pounds of flour and 100 pounds of sugar.
A third of the bierocks will be thawed and then fully baked early Saturday so they can be served at the festival for $4 each or $5 as part of a combo meal with chips and a beverage. The remainder – packaged by the half-dozen and selling for $17 – will be sold to those who want to enjoy them later.
"We used to sell out of them early, but over the last several years, we've had some left over," Miller said about the packaged bierocks sales. Any leftovers, however, are generally gone the next day, snatched up by parishioners after church on Sunday.
The bierocks won't be the only baked goods for sale at the bazaar. This year marks the return of cinnamon rolls, but the rolls – made by the parishioners of another church – will be sold as a dine-in option only, Miller said.
The church and its K-8 school are also encouraging parish families to donate baked goods for sale, billing Friday – when the kids are out of school for conferences – as the Second Annual Bake With Your (St. Elizabeth Ann Seton School) Kids Day. Donna Bachman, the bazaar organizer, has started a specific bake-sale Pinterest page, sharing recipes for items that would be ideal to make with the kids.
This year's bazaar will have about 80 vendors, Bachman said. Nearly 2,000 people are expected to attend the bazaar, which raises funds for altar needs: linens, Communion bread and such.
Other dine-in and homemade options – besides the bierocks and cinnamon rolls – for lunch at the bazaar include homemade sausage and potato soup, homemade chicken and noodle soup, hotdogs and homemade cherry cobbler.

Hello, World!
The guys discuss the Brock Lesnar to UFC 200 situation and what they may have had to pay the WWE to make it happen? And was it even money, or is there a possibility of further talent exchange? Would such an exchange hurt the credibility of the UFC?

This is the first post in our Mortals series, where we'll pick a cookbook author, food blogger, or Instagrammer whose recipes we love—and reveal how we make them fit into our lives. By fit we mean both literally fit, time-wise, and the other "fit," nutrition-wise. That could mean taking a 30-minute Melissa Clark meal and either streamlining it further or doubling or tripling it—so that you spend a few more minutes but get two orthree meals, instead of one, for your time. For others, say the lovely but sometimes nutritionallyluxe Smitten Kitchen, that will mean replacing empty calories with nutritionally dense substitutes. Because when your daily schedule includes running, swimming, and eating several times a day, every calorie counts.

Landrex has built a reputation of being a leader in land development – one that has created a legacy of crafting valued communities that families are proud to call home.
From acquiring the land, developing the vision and designing architecturally distinct residential and commercial communities, Landrex brings a customer-focused vision to every aspect of community and commercial planning. Owner and CEO Larry Andrews believes what sets Landrex apart from its competitors is its unique family business structure. "We are a family corporation that has taken our own family values and incorporated them into the way we conduct business. This meaningful structure creates passion and ultimately drives our commitment to responsibly serve the community."Andrews is proud of Landrex's ability to revert to their family roots when faced with adversity in an everchanging market. He credits Landrex's success over the years to their "awareness of community needs, and a strong sense of commitment and perseverance in order to meet those needs".
Established in 1972, Landrex has created a legacy that has contributed to revitalizing land and shaping communities, proving that good business can be achieved with a mutual commitment to strong values. "In all our actions, as a corporation and as individuals, we consider what impression we would like to leave behind,"says President Jim Sheasgreen. "Our personal interest in the business creates passion and loyalty and that is an integral part of our drive." Their business is dynamic, ranging from designing commercial projects and master-planned communities, to applying their extensive knowledge and experience to add social, environmental, and economic benefits to a community."A Landrex community will always be a Landrex community. We need to create something that represents our name and our values far into the future,"says Director of Finance Sophie Baran.
A solid foundation is essential in developing communities. Landrex's core values are the foundation that is pivotal to the overwhelming success of their company. "One of our most impactful core values is integrity. We believe the qualities that comprise integrity are some of the most important business practices that can turn a good corporation into a great one," Sheasgreensays. "There is no genuine satisfaction in being at the top unless you came by it honestly and put in the work to get there. Landrex takes great pride in our ability to remain true to our company values."
The company draws on its prior experience to make its projects successful and they train their team so they are able to answer any questions that may arise during the development process. "We are a very close-knit team. We keep an open line of communication, so we know what everyone is working on. Our integration creates a very efficient and highly effective work environment,"says Baran. Landrex believes its emphasis on bringing together the right people for each of its projects ensures a positive and seamless experience in creating a quality development. "Having a highly integrated team encourages us to think about how what we do as individuals impacts our teammates. This creates accountability and support and helps us strategize together."
Landrex is not just about getting the job done, it's about getting the job done right the first time. As land development can have many unpredictable outcomes in the course of its life cycle, the key to success is in the research, planning, partnering, and communication. "In real estate you constantly hear the cliché that it is all about "location, location, location," says Sheasgreen. "Location is just the beginning. Landrex sees a piece of land and has a vision to create opportunity and a strategy to execute this vision effectively. The ability to do this stems from listening to our clients and our customers. Listening carefully and learning from the market helps us create what people need and want." To achieve this vision, Landrex consistently considers their own humble beginnings by striving to keep their business local to the municipalities they develop in. "We see opportunity in locally owned family businesses, like our own, so we consider them in everything that we do," says Sheasgreen. "Landrex takes the opportunity to build long lasting relationships within our communities and support our partners so we can continue to share success with them for many years to come."
Baran recognizes that building successful communities takes more than just constructing well-designed homes, it also means understanding local dynamics and establishing a community that taps into the best features of the surrounding neighborhoods. This means constructing communities that are both beautifully designed and incorporate local parks, shopping facilities, and transportation hubs. "We strive to do more than fulfill basic customer needs. We go above and beyond to design much more than a neighborhood, but we also create an ideal lifestyle that exceeds everyone's expectations,"she states.
Landrex strives for balance between the design and the needs of the market, ensuring that while the designs remain unique and creative, they do not infringe on the integrity of the community. "We enforce strict architectural guidelines, so our communities maintain a certain level of esthetic quality,"says Sheasgreen. They create places of value by crafting visions into high-performing, sustainable environments that create exceptional experiences for the people and communities they serve. "The difference between Landrex and other developers currently on the market, is that we take the time to work together with local builders to create communities that we all would want to live and work in," he states. "We do not sacrifice quality at the expense of saving cost. Our communities represent our brand and our legacy, and we want to ensure we are represented as a high quality, thoughtful and innovative developer."
Landrex recognizes that their achievements would not have been possible without the support of their community, and they take great pride in giving back for causes close to home. "Contributing to the broader community by sharing our time and resources is an important part of who we are as leaders in the community and in business,"says Sheasgreen."The ability to support and give back to the communities we live and work in is a privilege. Each of us can make a difference and that is how great communities prosper."Their philosophy of giving back to the community is reflected in their major sponsorships and donations to local events and charities including, but not limited to, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada, the University of Alberta Landrex Distinguished Professorship in the Faculty of Arts, the University of Alberta Peter Lougheed Leadership College, MacEwan University's Betty Andrews Recital Hall, the St. Albert Farmer's Market, the Landrex Water Play Centre at Servus Place in St. Albert, and the Landrex Pavillion in Fort Saskatchewan's Dow Centennial Centre. "It is important for us to give back to the community because we can. We believe that we have a moral and ethical obligation to contribute to the communities that we live and work in,"adds Baran.
Landrex is unique in their industry, and Sheasgreen knows that their success is not simply reflected through the results on a balance sheet – but also on a strong foundation of quality relationships with a committed team, contractors, home builders, and valued homeowners. "We share goals with each of the contractors that contribute to the development of our communities and support each other in our successes. We would not be where we are today if it was not for the amazing teams that we work with," says Sheasgreen.As part of their continuous improvement plan, Landrex will carry on with expansion and they are committed to constantly growing and improving in every facet of their business. "We strive for steady growth into the future and are excited to explore new opportunities in multiple industries. We believe that land development is a platform for continued innovation and reinvention and we cannot wait to see where that takes us."

The Photography Show 2018 Community Meetup
It's All About Community
I love going to The Photography Show. I've been every year and it just bigger and better each year. I love going to look at all the gear and picking up a show bargain. However, this year was a little different. Since starting my YouTube channel I started developing relationships with both my viewers and with other content creators. So this year we all organised a little meetup at the show.
It was a fantastic opportunity to meet so many people that regularly leave comments on my videos or who create videos that I watch myself. We only had a short time together but the conversation was lively and engaging. It was almost as if we already knew each other! For me, the meetup was one of the highlights of the show.
As a bit of fun, fellow content creator Chris Sale asked anyone who turned up to the meetup some quick-fire questions. I was there to film the responses so I thought you might enjoy watching peoples responses, including my own!
I hope you enjoyed that short video and you found some of the responses interesting or amusing!

In a statement issued in Dar es Salaam yesterday, the event's organiSers have reminded participants that registration is purely online and they should use the remaining time to finalise all processes so as to avoid missing the opportunity after registration is closed.
The initial deadline was February 7, 2018, but the organisers extended it to February 16, 2019 so as to give more participants a chance to register.
"We have less than a week now before registration period closes down. We have decided to extend the deadline to ensure all those interested are accommodated but we also want to advise that if the entries run out before this date, we shall have to close as there will be no additional entries," said the statement in part.
According to the statement, registered participants will be able to collect their race numbers and running shirts before the event in Dar es Salaam, Arusha and Moshi.

There will be, according to the organisers, manual registration for the Grand Malt 5km Fun Run on the same dates and locations as the number collection as noted above.
"We are also appealing to Moshi and Arusha residents to adhere to these dates as there will be no physical registration in Moshi this time around. Most of them tend to register late, we are calling on them to register online on time," said the organisers' statement.
For the Kilimanjaro Premium Lager 42km the maximum entries are 7500, for the Tigo 21Km Half Marathon the maximum entries are 5500 and for Grand Malt 5Km Fun Run the maximum entries are 5000.
"We are calling on all prospective runners to register in good time as the entries sold out before the 2018 event," they stressed. There is no guarantee that if you are late, there will be space for you in the event you want to enter," said the statement.
Sponsors for this year's event include Kilimanjaro Premium Lager 42km, Tigo 21km Half Marathon, Grand Malt 5km Fun Run and water table sponsors and partners KK Security, Keys Hotel, Kilimanjaro Water, TPC Sugar, Simba Cement, AAR, Kibo Palace, Barclays Bank, Precision Air and CMC Automobiles for staying committed to the event and making it bigger.

Part 1: https://goo.gl/6MaFUZ
In this clip, Insane Clown Posse detail the start of their quest into music. They pointed to 1989 as the start when they began making "basement tapes" which garnered them a buzz around the city. Prior to devoting their time and talents to hip-hop, ICP initially saw themselves becoming wrestlers but felt the music route was more of a calling. They also described the Detroit hip-hop scenes which included the more underground battle rap scene contrasted by the more studio driven, indie enterprise scene – similar to indie hip-hop artists in the South. And told of how Kid Rock used to be a legitimate MCee before going mainstream.

If you're looking for a quick-and-dirty way to take notes on your PC, you can't beat using your browser. No, I'm not talking about online tools like Google Keep, Word Online, or any other text-editing Web app.
An easier way to turn your browser into a note-taking machine is to use a little snippet of HTML code that creates an offline notepad in your browser.
Coding, you might ask with a shiver? Don't worry, it's beyond simple to use.
This notepad trick works because of HTML's "contenteditable" attribute that can turn any part of a web page into an interactive area for editing text. You can use it in Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera.
Sorry, Internet Explorer fans, your browser of choice won't play nice with this piece of HTML.
Editable tabs
First, open a blank tab in any of the three browsers mentioned above. Then, copy the HTML code below. You can find many HTML notepads online, but this is one of the most nicely formatted that I've seen. The HTML is courtesy of Mike Francis, a London-based Web designer and developer, who posted this to Twitter in late May.
After you've copied the code, paste it into the address bar of your open browser tab and press Enter.
That's it. You now have a quick notepad ready to use. You can also bookmark the open tab so that your notepad will be ready to go anytime you need it.
Saving your notes
Here's the catch: Every time you shut down your browser or close the notepad browser tab, your notes will disappear. As a result, this notepad is easiest to use for taking notes that don't need to stick around. I've been using it, for example, to create daily task lists that I don't feel the need to archive.
If you want to save your notes, however, you have a few options. All three browsers can save your notes as an HTML document. To do this in Chrome, you'd click on the menu icon in the upper-right corner (it will look like three horizontal stacked bars, or a hamburger if you're feeling a bit hungry) and then choose Save page as...
Give the file a name, save it wherever you'd like, and later you can open your notes in any browser. Even Internet Explorer will open notes saved as HTML, and you'll also be able to edit them in Microsoft's browser at that point.
Alternatively, you could just save your notes by copying and pasting them into a regular text editing app.
Firefox is all about text
Firefox, however, has the best option for Windows users since it lets you save an open browser tab as text. In Windows 8.1 using Firefox 29.0.1, just click on Firefox's menu icon and choose the Save Page option.
In the File Explorer window that opens, click the drop down menu next to 'Save as type:' and choose Text Files. Name the file, press Save, and you'll then be able to open the file in any regular text editor.
There are many powerful note-taking apps around, but if you just need a bare-bones and easy way to quickly jot down information, it's hard to beat a simple browser tab.

I've had the great pleasure of working on some fantastic series and films, here are just some of the projects I have been involved with on the CG side of things.
On all of these shows I created many of the 3d models/textures and been in charge of lighting the scenes.
Truly amazing work by all involved, the team really makes the magic happen. Breakdowns and clips coming soon.

Furious Road is the newest in a long line of Army of Darkness titles. As a fan of the Evil dead and Army of Darkness I've often wondered if they would ever explore the future. In this issue I got my answer. This one is set 20 years into the future where the deadite virus has left the world a wasteland with the evil dead walking freely among the scattered living. The story follows a group of deadite hunters as they travel across Detroit looking for the Necromicon. At the end of the search they finally run into our hero, Ash. It's full of your typical Army of Darkness fun and gore. The group of deadite hunters are all unique in ways that are slowly revealed throughout the story. Part of the group includes a trash-talking, gun-toting nun, who's not afraid to get her hands dirty. Another character is an odd Frankenstein looking fellow. The other characters have their own surprises. All of them seem to be religiously motivated as they recite several bible verses during their battles. I hope their backgrounds are explored more in future issues. It was interesting to see characters who are out of the norm carrying most of the book.
The build up to their confrontation with Ash does not disappoint. He gives his normal snarky and sarcastic quips. It's clear that 20 years hasn't changed much about Ash's personality. He also totes his trademark chainsaw hand and double barrel shotgun. If you've been watching the new Starz TV series Ash vs. The Evil Dead, then you'll find this version of Ash familiar. He looks like he's aged in real time although a little bit better than Bruce Campbell.
The artwork brings life to a city wasteland environment. Among the abandon buildings and empty cars, I was able to find a few Easter eggs hidden in the pages. It's these little touches that added variety to the post-apocalyptic setting.
I think this issue is a good start for the newest series. I did find it to be a little short but I think that's because Ash isn't featured as much as I thought he would be and the story really picks up when he is revealed. I enjoyed the Mad Max: Fury Road reference with the title. Hopefully they'll reference the film more as the series goes on. The Army of Darkness franchise is a recipe for fun in the hands of a good writer and artist. This looks like it's going to be the start of another entertaining run.
Score: 4/5
Army of Darkness: Furious Road #1 Writer: Nancy A. Collins Artist: Kewbar Ball Publisher: Dynamite Entertainment Price: $3.99 Release Date: 3/2/16 Format: Mini-Series; Print/Digital

Hi! We use jotform as a proof approval system. We upload the proof for the client, have them enter their basic information and whether or not we are approved and if any changes should be made. We love the system and it has worked well for us.
However, several of our clients have called to let us know they cannot see their information as they are typing it in on Internet Explorer. If they are typing and then submit the form, we can see it in our submissions that they have typed but they cannot see it themselves. We desperately need to resolve this issue. Thank you!

I see that this issue appears only with IE11. I've tested with other versions 8, 9 and 10 as well and it seems to be working fine. As I debug, I see that height is set to 0px in the custom CSS which is causing the issue.

Please set the height to 30px so that the issue is resolved. Please get back to us if the issue still persists. We are happy to look into further.

Got the tooth extracted this afternoon, a little after 4pm.
I went to the clinic as an afternoon walk in. They only take four and I was #4. I got there a little after 1pm There were only a few people there but as the hours passed more and more people were there. I gave up my seat to an older lady and set on the floor at her feet. Later I went outside the main waiting room to like a secondary waiting room with 3 chairs. The only downside is that the main waiting room had air conditioning and the secondary one did not. It just had the front doors open. And we are in the midst of a heat wave! It was 97º today and it's 11pm now and the temperature is 77º with 14% humidity. Hot day.
So the most important thing that can be done is to stay hydrated.
I had a productive day with a few mishaps.
-My throat woke me up this morning a little after 6am. Hurting. Stupid pain. I had only just gone to bed around 3am 😦 There was no getting anymore sleep. So I got up, had a little bit of banana and took and ibuprofen. I did my usual morning stuff, (minus yoga), self massage, shower, grooming..
When washing my ears (I have stretched ears, 00g) I lost one of my o rings. It totally went down the drain. I didn't think it was a big deal but my plug fell out twice within an hour and so I wrapped it up in kleenex and put in a plastic baggie so I wouldn't lose it
-I decided to head to school to talk buy my chem lab books and equipment. On Monday, I registered for Chemistry for summer session. A friend of mine gave me some money so I could get all the lab stuff. I still have to get the main books though. So..anyways..I get my stuff and talk to my lead manager about the tooth extraction. She had to make arrangements so she could stay a couple hours later. I feel sorry about that because her work day was extended by 2.5 hours. She's cool though. She just wants me to feel better.
-I headed to go get something to eat and then went to my friend's place to wash clothes. All but two of the washer's were free! At this poing it was like 930am. My friend helped me carry my stuff to the laundry room. I had 4 loads of laundry. Two with clothes, 1 of towels, and 1 with a quilt type comforter and a semi-thick blanket. My friend through some of her stuff in one of the loads. There were no more dryer sheets at my friend's house so I had to walk back to my place (a couple blocks away) and grab some. To dry we ended up using 6 dryers in hopes that we wouldn't have to to do 2 dry cycles. It worked out! We were done about 1145 and all the clothes were dry except for a pair of jeans and some sweat shorts. But seeing as it was so hot today, we put them out on the fence in the backyard.
-I got on the bus around 12:15 to head to the clinic for the walk in. I have to take two busses to get to the clinic location and then walk about 15 minutes.
-The extraction was pretty interesting. The tooth was in two pieces and ended up breaking more. I felt a few chips pop in my mouth and pass my lips into the air. There was pain so the dentist stopped and put another shot of the numbing stuff. Finally the tooth was out. My right eye was all teary. So just a smidgen of crying 🙂
-Then I made my way downtown to my piercing/tattoo place get another o-ring for my plug. I am 6 days away from a new stretch (7/16ths) and I'm excited about that. Finances may not permit the stretch but that's okay. I'll get it down when I can.
-I just chilled on the way home. 2 buses with an 18 minute layover between bus #1 and bus #2. At this point I'm starving so I have to get food. I get tomato soup from Campbells. I've never had it before. And I buy applesauce. I go to McDonalds and get soft plain ice cream in a cup. It took me 35 minutes to walk home. It usually only takes be about 10/15 mintues.
-On my way home I realized I'D LOST MY KEYS!!! I think I may have left it on one of the busses. I can check with lost and found tomorrow after 12p.
As far as the keys go, my manager was unavailable so I asked her brother to help me. He did something to the lock and I was in. I heated up the tomato soup which was excellent and at the ice cream and took an ibuprofen.
Now, I'm just chilling. Ive just watch 3 episodes (mid season) of Switched At Birth . It's a good show.
I've taken my antibiotics for the night and have an ibuprofen put to the side if I need it around midnight.
My eyes are barely staying open so I'll end now.
Gratitude: Thankful for the dentist and dentist staff.
Thanks for my friend helping me with my laundry.
Thanks fro my tv and all the things that come along with it!
Thanks for Public Transportation
Thanks for my own little space.

Now normally I don't pay much attention to those kinds of letters, but this one caught my eye. I recognized the Protect IP Act because I had been reading about it online.

Now I do agree that something needs to be done to stop piracy, but this type of legisation isn't it.

A retired naval officer robbed at gunpoint said he was shot on his little finger by one of two assailants who ambushed him while leaving a West Park nightclub.
The incident happened around 4:30 a.m. Aug. 5 as Lamar Salem, 49, was walking to his car parked behind Polo Club, 5590 Hallandale Beach Blvd., the Broward Sheriff's Office said.
Salem, who served in the Navy 24 years, felt a tap on his shoulder and turned to see a man pointing a gun at him.
"I have never had this happen to me," he said by phone Friday. "I was horrified for my life."
The robber left after Salem handed over the cash from his front pocket, but then returned with another man and a car.
"We tussled a little bit at that time. They pushed me down to the ground and took everything I had," Salem said. "They shot me in my right pinky and told me to stay, not get up until they left."
Salem waited until the men drove away before grabbing a spare key he kept concealed on his car. He drove home and called authorities.
Investigators observed that half of Salem's right pinky appeared to have been shot off and he had a black eye, according to an incident report.
According to the sheriff's office, Salem, who had been a Chief Petty Officer in the Navy, hadn't called deputies right away because "his pride was hurt."
The sheriff's office Friday released surveillance video of the two robbers, who stopped at a gas station to buy drinks using one of Salem's credit cards.
One man was wearing a black baseball cap, a red shirt, plaid shorts and boat shoes, the sheriff's office said. The other man wore a black shirt with a stripe along the sleeves, shorts and sneakers, investigators said.
"These two men are criminals and they should be brought to justice," Salem said. "These guys are very dangerous...these people do not need to be on the street."
Authorities ask anyone with information to call Detective Theophilus Woulard at 954-321-4270 or Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-8477.

Success between boys and girls, the sleepover is a more intimate choice for birthday parties or meeting of the gang to have fun. The goal is to bring everyone home and take great advantage of the relaxed look and comfort to spend an evening full of jokes, goodies and exciting activities.
This kind of children's party is perfect for various age groups precisely because it has such an adaptable format, you can start with the sleepover for guests from 4 or 5 years of age and go into early adolescence.
Before you start planning your party and collecting pillows, check out our tips to make your sleepover the feast of dreams:
- Do not overdo the number of guests : since the proposal is for everyone to sleep at home, a meeting with only the closest friends will be much more fun and comfortable for everyone. Think small ones usually have a dose of extra energy and need organization so that everything flows well.
- Questions for parents and guardians : Use the pajama party invitation to combine some basic things with the parents of the little ones before the party: pajamas, toothbrush and teddy bear can make a difference at night. Do not forget to check if any of the guests have any allergies or food restriction, so your pajama party will be quiet, quiet.
- Soft colors and a cozy atmosphere : The perfect pajama party decor should balance the soothing tones and the variety of colors in the décor. When preparing environments, think of everyone's comfort with soft cushions, mattresses and cabanas (more elaborate or improvised).
- A custom party : The children's pajama party is a theme in itself and does not need add-ons, but can be combined with several other elements. Think of all this fun as involving smaller themes such as camp, cartoon characters or favorite movies of the class, baladinha or what you and your birthday party prefer.
- Bet on simpler foods : pajama party foods should be based on simpler items like healthy sandwiches, baked snacks, pizza, and other practical choices that kids love. So much more time for you to have fun with them.
- Games and games : You can organize the evening schedule by setting schedules and thinking about the energy that everyone will be. Start with lively childhood games such as chair dancing, hopscotch, hula hoops, ciranda, hide-and-seek, and the classic pillow fight, then move on to games like treasure hunting, mime, forca, stop (adedanha).
- Activities for all tastes : Kids love to let go of creativity and give their special touch to things, so your party can still have manual activities that involve cooking (such as a currying and decorating workshop, brigadeiros and other delicacies that are easy to prepare) or even some crafts. To help them calm down when it's time to sleep you can include storytelling and movie time.

'No point' in restricting NRIs, PIOs from seeking surrogacy services in India, panel says
The parliamentary panel said it should be permitted after a "thorough scrutiny" of the NRI, PIO and OCIs' documents submitted to the appropriate authority designated for granting permission for surrogacy services in India.india Updated: Aug 11, 2017 20:02 IST
A parliamentary panel has said there should be no discrimination against people of Indian origin living abroad seeking to use surrogacy services in India.
There is "no point" in restricting Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), Persons of Indian Origin (PIOs) and Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) from using surrogacy services, the panel's report, tabled in Parliament recently, said.
While recommending that foreign nationals be kept out of the Surrogacy (Regulation) Bill, 2016, it advocated an appropriate mechanism for a complete background check of NRIs, PIOs and OCIs intending to use the services of surrogates for bearing a child on their behalf.
The Department Related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Health said this should be permitted after a "thorough scrutiny" of their documents submitted to the appropriate authority designated for granting permission for surrogacy services in India.
"The Committee recommends that while foreign nationals be kept out of the ambit of the surrogacy bill, Persons of Indian Origin, Overseas Citizens of India and NRIs be permitted to avail of surrogacy services in the country," it said.
The Union Cabinet had given its nod to the introduction of the Surrogacy (Regulation) Bill, 2016, in Parliament, seeking a bar on unmarried couples, single parents, live-in partners and homosexuals from opting for surrogacy.
"Foreigners as well as NRIs and PIOs who hold OCI cards have been barred from opting for surrogacy," external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj had told reporters after the approval of the bill by the Union Cabinet last year.
The committee headed by Samajwadi Party leader Ram Gopal Yadav said there were adequate provisions in the Bill for an appropriate authority to scrutinise documents submitted by the intending couple before commissioning surrogacy and to reject an application in case of any violation of rules.
"The committee is of the view that PIOs/OCIs should not be classified along with other foreign nationals" for this purpose, the committee's report said.
The committee was of the opinion that since NRIs, PIOs and OCI cardholders were of Indian origin, there should not be any "prejudice and discrimination" against them on the matter.
"The government has been extending several concessions to PIOs/OCIs to boost the ties of the Indian diaspora with the country of their origin," it said.
The committee also recommended that the intending couple provide a specific "declaration" or a No-Objection Certificate that the child born of a surrogate would get the same citizenship rights as possessed by the intending couple.
The recommendations of such panels are not binding on the government. However, the government, in most cases, accepts some proposals, as reports of parliamentary committees are considered the "will of Parliament".

I have just installed really simple ssl to redirect m website url from http to https.
But the social counts has not been showing rightly. I have come to know that really simple ssl social can do the trick. I have build in social count button in my theme. Before going to purchase i like you to know will it work for my site to recover social counts on Google+, Facebook and others.
Mark WoltersKeymaster
Hi Farhan,
Really Simple SSL social is able to recover share/like counts from Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Linkedin and Stumbleupon. While the plugin can work with the buttons from your theme we are unable to guarantee the all likes/shares will return without using the built-in Really Simple SSL social buttons. The built-in buttons retrieve for example Facebook likes and shares directly from the Facebook API, making it work all the time. Other plugins/themes might do this differently. In short, if you want to be sure all shares and likes are returned use the built-in buttons.
Jumedeen khan
I used your plugin and the social share count on my site posts was recovered. Thanks
May i know how did you recovered all social share counts on your sites posts??
Mark WoltersKeymaster
Hi Mansi,
Really Simple SSL social has the ability to recover shares after moving to SSL, see https://really-simple-ssl.com/downloads/really-simple-ssl-social/.

I'm pretty sure when I last talked about Honeyblood I was talking about the Glaswegian duo upping the anti with their punchy, direct garage-pop. Consider that statement true again with their lastest track "Choker", taken from the debut, self-titled full length due May 19th via Fat Cat.
"Choker" sounds like a long lost indie's anthm from the 90's, a track which stand up to anything from The Breeders or Elastica as immediately you are introduced to some beasty guitar riffs and pounding drum beats, the result is liable to cause a celebration of mosh-pit bounce at future gigs around call-and-response vocals. Sweet!

According to a recent press release, "Syncsort, the global leader in Big Iron to Big Data software, today announced it has been named to Microsoft's One Commercial Partner program to support customers' Microsoft Azure Cloud initiatives. Syncsort's data integration and data quality solutions efficiently move data of any kind to Azure, transforming it so it's analytics-ready and improving and maintaining the quality of the data as it's stored and analyzed in the cloud."
The release goes on, "The cloud is an overwhelmingly popular option for deploying applications and storing data due to its flexible architecture, low cost and elasticity, but it presents challenges when the data originating from other platforms needs to be archived or integrated. Organizations must move their data, cleanse and transform it so it's ready for analytics in the cloud. This can be time consuming and, in the case of legacy platforms like mainframes, very complex due to incompatible data formats and storage practices. Once in the cloud, the data must be kept up-to-date and of the highest quality to ensure accurate, trusted analytics on which to base business decisions."
Tendü Yogurtçu, CTO of Syncsort, commented, "More and more organizations are looking to store data and build, manage and deploy applications in the cloud, but moving data can be complex and ensuring its accuracy can be challenging… Syncsort focuses on simplifying data access, integration and quality for trusted insights in enterprise-wide analytics, irrespective of its source or use case, including the cloud. Achieving co-sell status with Microsoft is a great recognition of how we help support joint customers in their cloud journeys."

You must have many questions about hard disk data recovery. Why the hard disk data can be recovered?
For a traditional hard disk drive (HDD), when you empty the Recycle Bin or delete some items out of it, you don't really delete the items. Speaking from a technical viewpoint, when you store or generate files on your computer, they are actually saved on specific clusters (contain sectors) of a hard drive that is attached to your PC. Once they get deleted either via emptying Recycle Bin, Shift + Delete, DOS command delete or other methods, the file system only marks the spaces where those files occupy as "deleted" and also telling the system that those spaces are now free to be overwritten.
Once your hard drive volume is almost full, new files will directly take any free space. Until then, your files are totally deleted by overwritten. So if there is no new data overwrites the space of the file, the deleted file still stays there.
Therefore, once data loss is discovered, the first thing to do is to stop storing and editing data to the hard disk and recover the lost data with a best hard disk recovery software as soon as possible.
Bitwar Data Recovery is a best hard disk recovery software that designed to easily recover deleted, formatted or inaccessible files from Windows PC, laptop, hard drive, SSD, memory card, USB drive, SD card, digital camera, multimedia player and other storage devices. From these devices, you can recover audios, videos, pictures, archives, compress files, and documents. It is compatible with FAT 16, FAT 32, NTFS, NTFS 5, ExFAT, HFS+ and HFSX file systems. Here are the steps on how to recover lost data with Bitwar Data Recovery.
Download Bitwar Data Recovery and install it by click on this official URL: http://www.bitwar.net/data-recovery-software/ or by clicking the download icon below. Remember not store any data onto the partition of the hard disk which have just lost data from, even Bitwar Data Recovery installation files.
Step 1: Launch Bitwar Data Recovery software and select the partition which your data lost from and click "next". If you want to recover data from external disk, please connect it to your computer and select it on this step.
Step 2: Select "Quick Scan" If your data is not lost due to formatting the partition and click "Next". If files are not override by other data, files can be fully recovered.
If you performed a quick format on a partition of hard disk, you can select "Formatted Recovery" to recover your formatted data.
Step 3: Choose the correct file types and press "next" button to start scanning.
After this operation, the permanently deleted data had been recovered from hard disk very well. Not only restore lost data from hard disk, the Bitwar Data Recovery software can recover data whether you deleted these files, or lost them due to virus, or due to formatting, or due to RAW disk, you can still have them back using this software.

A unique night of music took place on Friday, July 29, 2016 as the Brighton Valley Apartments in Nashville celebrated the talented residents in its midst with a an open mic showcase care of the complex's in-house CARES program. The evening revealed an ongoing truth about this town, namely, that Music City remains a magnet for quality musicians of all genres.
"So my mom died nine days ago, I've been kind of down and out a little bit," said Rockin' Rich Lynch formerly of New Jersey introducing a song he said once made her cry. "I'm not sure if it's because it sucked or if it really touched her in some way."
Lynch's set included a Bob Dylan cover and three songs he recorded in the Garden State before moving to Tennessee with his wife in 2015. "Shoot For The Stars" was the track that drew the maternal tears. "I Want to Live in a Dome" was about the singer's desire to obtain alternative housing. "All Rights Reversed" was a stern warning about America's waning liberties. Rockin' Rich then gave way to another fellow former New Jerseyian – Mr. Jay Pounders.
Pounders is the one time frontman and driving force behind the 80's outfit Crossfire Choir [#crossfirechoir] who were signed to a major label deal and worked with legendary producers Steve Lillywhite and Ed Stasium before closing up shop having made their mark on the local market. Jay has stuck with music all along the way honing his craft in L.A. before recently deciding to give the Nashville scene a try.
Pounders presented some newer impressive numbers that proved the move to Music City has been a good one as far as the further evolution of his songwriting is concerned. "Sad Songs", "Rare Thing" and "That'll Be The Day (I'm in Heaven)" revealed the performer's emerging country-influenced sensitive side. "The Finger" was a humorous fume about a memorable night that didn't quite turn out as he had planned. When finished Jay remarked that he would pass his hat to further his ongoing "wine research".
Another recent transplant to the region was Ty March who is a marked up young gun from central Pennsylvania singing and writing modern country songs. March is the real deal with an impressive social media presence, a number of widely viewed videos on YouTube and over 50,000 Twitter followers.
March opened with the sexy "For Awhile" before premiering his latest upcoming single and the first song that he has recorded in Nashville. The timely "Mr. Right Now" proved that March is a hot man of the moment as he begins to make his mark in Mid-Tennessee.
But, the open mic held in the courtyard of the suburban apartment grounds wasn't just for the experienced professionals. Two of the girls performing on this night were actually making their first appearance in public and you wouldn't have known it from how well they did. Beth Anne played three sharp originals from her white binder culled from her life experience. The alluring Amber delivered a Neil Young cover for her inaugural voyage in front of a live crowd.
Just as everyone in L.A. is an aspiring actor, and most New Yorkers have Broadway dreams, in Nashville many of the people you meet on the street have just arrived in town to pursue their musical passion. Such is the case with About The Author, a talented duo from Washington state, who literally rolled into the region four days earlier with some terrific songs in tow.
"So, this is pretty sweet. We just moved here a week ago. We're loving Brighton Valley so far," announced singer and guitarist Derek Overton. "It's awesome that our apartment complex puts on stuff like this. We're gonna play some songs."
What became apparent almost instantly was that About The Author is ready to write their own chapter of musical success in this town. They played three anthemic songs in the popular Christian rock genre that would fit in perfectly on the air with bands like Needtobreathe and Nashville's own Jars of Clay. "Today Is the Day", "Flood and Famine" and "Seek First " we're well received by the appreciative audience.
The open mic was hosted by Jenna and Jacob the apartment's CARES Team. This popular couple lives onsite and partners with management to build community. They serve residents by doing things that flow naturally out of the Christian lifestyle, including welcoming new residents, planning monthly social events, and CARE-ing for residents and property staff in times of need. Jenna and Jacob are also a talented musical duo most recently performing under the Davy & Amelia moniker. While they've taken a bit of time off to work on producing their family they did make progress towards a comeback with a satisfying cameo performance at this event.
Brighton Valley is one of the privileged communities in Nashville to be served by The CARES program. This organization redefines the resident experience through relationships with a focus on increasing resident retention, enhancing online reputation, and improving overall lifestyle satisfaction. The group puts on three activities per month to enhance community relations and with their first ever Open Mic Night they really knocked it out of the park.

Why the RBI repo rate cut is bad news for retired folk?
Banks and financial institutions might now look at the possibility of dropping interest rates on deposits and fixed income securities, following the RBI move to cut repo and CRR rates.
They are not compelled to drop rates, but generally would do so following the RBI move with a time lag. Therefore those who live on interest income like widows and retired individuals could see their income being hit and should act wisely and here is how.
So what should retired individuals do?
Banks generally take time to cut their deposit rates and do so only after studying their asset-liability position. This means that banks will take time, if any, to reduce interest rates. So, retired folk who are planning to lock money in fixed deposits should do the same today. Also, interest rates are likely to fall further, as the governor has clearly hinted at pushing growth over inflation. By the end of the current year, one would not be surprised if interest rates fall by as much as 1 per cent on fixed deposits.
Therefore, those who depend on interest income should not only lock in money today, but should do so for a longer duration say of 3-5 years as interest rates are likely to fall further and they would hedge against falling interest rates.

7 Ways To Make Sure Everyone Hates Working With You
One of the big challenges all musicians face is the overwhelming amount of amazing paying work. I've found some ways to cut down on some of those annoying 5 figure gigs, and thought I'd share them with my audience.
Next time someone famous calls you with a wad of cash for a gig, I'd recommend using one or mor of the following techniques:
1. Be defensive from the very beginning.
Remember, the only reason people are trying to hire you is to rip you off. Set the tone early by cutting right to the "how much money are you going to pay me?" question. When they tell you how much, chuckle under your breath.
Tell them that it's kind of insulting that they even thought of calling you with that ridiculous price, but you'll think about it. Of course, you'll call them up a week later after not having thought about it at all and agree to do it. If they've given the gig to someone else because you didn't commit, this is your chance to throw a massive temper tantrum.
2. Add in guilt.
Make sure that they know what a massive favor you're doing by even working with them. Constantly remind them that you're not getting paid what you're worth. If that doesn't drive it home, itemize what you do and point out each item. Show up to practice on time? That's worth around $450. Bring your own instrument? That's another $300.
There's an almost endless list of ways to make someone feel guilty about being so demanding, even if they're being really easy to get along with. Get creative!
3. Show up late.
To absolutely everything. The key to this strategy is not which events you show up late to, but how late. If you're too late, it'll look like you don't care. Shoot for around 15-30 minutes late, since I've found most people will tolerate this level of incompetency for awhile. Remember, if you show up too late you can always lie and tell them your mom died. Again, be careful- they might catch on if you don't show the right emotions.
4. Always be right.
The great part about this step? You don't really have to be right. All you have to be is difficult and obnoxious enough that people stop arguing with you. People tend to be too polite to fight you super hard, and it's the biggest advantage you have when you take this position.
Another benefit of this technique? If you work with insecure people, they'll occasionally mistake your confidence in the complete crap coming out of your mouth as the mark of a "seasoned professional". If you find someone like this, do everything you can to work with them in the future. These people have a much higher threshold for crap than most, and you'll be able to be impossibly difficult with them without risk of getting fired.
5. Bash the people around you over the head with all the amazing stuff you've done.
Most of the time this step will not be necessary if you establish early on that you're better than everyone else. If you have to resort to technique, try to work it naturally into conversation. Here's how you might do it:
"That guy with the baseball cap at the bar reminds me of when I was working with XXXX. I remember stepping off the private jet in Tahiti (again, lie if you have to here) and then being cheered by those 30,000 people in the soccer stadium as we melted their faces with our mind-blowing talent. I'm sure there were a couple of fans there who had baseball hats on, too."
6. Accent the most obnoxious parts of your personality.
Old fashioned rudeness goes a long way. If you're struggling with this one, create a fake allergy. Peanut allergies are the best because almost everything somehow comes in contact with peanuts, giving you more chances to be a pain in the butt at all meals and backstage events.
If that sounds like a lot of work, just be on the phone 24/7. Talk loudly and laugh all the time. Make sure to do it around as many of your co-workers as possible.
7. When all else fails, have a meltdown.
Again, this pushes the "you're fired" boundary, but it's a great last resort if the people around you are exceptionally kind and tolerant of your behavior.
Meltdowns are where you get to channel the creativity that you never actually put into your music. You could be subtle by silently weeping while you play, or you could choose someone randomly in the band and pick a fight. It's up to you. Let your inner artist shine.
