Lay Ministry Team
The Lay Ministry Team is called from within the congregation. There is an understanding that within the congregation there are people resources and the authority to put in place necessary ministry through a Lay Team.
In appropriate circumstances Presbyterian and Methodist congregations are able to request that specific individuals be authorised to administer the sacraments in settings where ministry is carried out by a Lay Team.
Bay of Islands have five Coordinators in their Ministry Team - each has a specific job description and each is covenanted to work specifically in these areas:
* Worship
* Pastoral Care
* Administration
* Community Outreach
* Social Fellowship
To call the Team, the full membership of the congregation will meet with a national or district facilitator for a major calling commission in which the various roles of ministry are finalised and grouped into job descriptions. Members then vote in secret for the people they feel should fill each position. These votes are not counted but are dedicated and later examined by the national or district leadership, and individuals are sent letters inviting them to accept a call to specific ministries. This calling letter states the job description, the expectations of the position and offers educational and other support, including an offer that all other positions held by the called person should be subject to review.
Experience in our Parish again and again confirms that when the call comes in this way people will take it more seriously and prayerfully than if they are simply co-opted or appointed in the traditional fashion or even if they volunteer.
We encourage individual coordinators to take as much initiative in their work as possible but they consult regularly in the (monthly) team meeting. Usually they report briefly on what they have done and intend to do and particularly on items in which they need some support or assistance.
Our Parish has an Enabler who works with the Team, offers resources, provides educational opportunities in areas that the team identify as needing input. The Enabler meets with the team on a regular basis.

DC is expensive, but that's not the whole story
Earlier this month, a map saying that $100 will buy you less in DC than any other state made the online rounds. But while it's true $100 will buy you less in DC, it's misleading to leave it at that because DC's higher incomes mean it's easier to make $100 here than in many other places.
The above map, which came from the Tax Foundation's Alan Cole uses the relative value of $100 across states to highlight how prices of the same goods vary. "The same amount of cash can buy you comparatively more in a low-price state than in a high-price state," writes Cole.
For instance, in Mississippi, the state with the lowest prices, you could spend $100 to buy goods that would on average cost $115.34 in the US. Conversely, DC has the lowest relative value of $100: If you spend $100 in DC you would receive goods that on average cost $84.67.
But using that to conclude that DC is the most expensive place in the country is a bit disingenuous. States are a mix of urban, surburban and rural. DC is wholly urban, and urban areas tend to be more expensive. A more accurate view would compare DC to other cities.
When the Tax Foundation did just that a week later, with the map below, it seemed like a step in the right direction. By comparing the relative value of $100 across metro areas, the DC region turns out to look like the seventh-most expensive:
But wait! There's an even bigger underlying issue with this analysis: it doesn't take income into account at all. In other words, while $100 might buy you a different amount of goods in one place versus another, what about the fact that you can make $100 a lot faster in some places than others?
The map below shows the real personal income for each metro area. This measure adjusts income to account for regional price variations and inflation. Among the 428 metro and non-metro areas, DC has the 23rd highest real personal income. So while the DC region has high prices, it also has high incomes. To some extent, the two balance each other out.

The Art of Language
When I'm not preparing speeches for corporate events, I'm a husband and a father. In my involvement with my daughter's school, I recently began working on a project related to language arts for grade school kids — more about that in the future. But in my research I stumbled across this great quote, from author John Warner's blog at Inside Higher Ed: "We don't have low standards, or an achievement problem, or a 'grit' deficiency, but an enthusiasm gap. We have a joy deficit. A curiosity crisis."
It's from this blog post — and it's worth reading the whole thing.

So I posted a character design up a couple of days ago for a quick childrens book pitch I was working on. I only had a couple of days to work on a double page spread for it so it was a bit rushed, but here it is.
It's a bit rough around the edges, but it shows the general gist of what I would try to do with the style and layout of text etc…
With the turn around so quick on it, I didn't have much of a chance to flesh out some of the character designs. The science teacher in particular has been bugging me ever since I sent the work- so I took a little while to play with her design and make her a bit more kooky and fun…:)

People want this election to be over — and after today, they will get their wish. The months of sniping political ads, mudslinging and shouting about the future of our nation has everyone on edge — so much so that a local mental health professional on Tuesday will share ways to cope during a live stream interview accessed on UR Medicine Facebook.
"It's no understatement to say this presidential election has touched a national nerve," says UR Medicine therapist Kevin Coffey, a member of the University of Rochester Medical Center Department of Psychiatry who also cares for patients in his faculty practice. Coffey's live interview at 9:45 a.m. can also be replayed anytime afterwards on the UR Facebook page.

Missin' Out On PRIMAL RAGE
Man, this movie looks positively sick! PRIMAL RAGE was released to theaters for one night only, Tuesday February 27th. And I missed it. I had a previous commitment that I couldn't renegotiate. Now, sadly, I'll have to wait for the video release. (Unless they do like they did with JEEPERS CREEPERS 3 and release it directly to SyFy, which would be okay with me.) A killer Bigfoot movie, any killer Bigfoot movie, is always going to be of interest to me, but this one looks like it might be epic. Check out that creature!
Here's the official synopsis: "PRIMAL RAGE follows Ashley (Casey Gagliardi) and Max Carr (Andrew Joseph Montgomery) as they, lost deep in the forest, are stalked by a terrifying creature that just might be Bigfoot. Soon, they find themselves embroiled in a strange land of Native American myth and legend turned all too real. Hopelessly trying to survive, with a handful of unsavory locals, they must fight against the monster in a desperate battle of life or death." Ah, yes. There are always unsavory locals, aren't there? But that just means more potential victims for the monster. I hope this one gets released to video sooner than soon.

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
The article analyses the narrative techniques and the theme of madness in three novels by the Senegalese writer Boubacar Boris Diop, caracterised by narrative polyphony and metatextual reflexion on the production of a story. The speech of protagonists affected by "intellectual madness" plays a strategic role in the structure of the novel which, as a hybrid genre, draws on oral and literary traditions in a still splintered aesthetic. The image of the pack represents an unreasonnable society condemning a so-called mad individual whose madness consists in bringing a counter-memory of the foundation myths.

Iowa Finance Authority Awards $35,000 Grant to Heart of Iowa Habitat for Humanity to Construct Affordable Home in Boone
State Housing Trust Fund Grant to Advance Affordable Housing
Des Moines – May 7, 2015 – (RealEstateRama) — The Iowa Finance Authority Board of Directors today awarded a $35,000 State Housing Trust Fund grant to Heart of Iowa Habitat for Humanity. The grant will be used to finance the construction of an affordable home in Boone for an eligible family. The funding is made available through the State Housing Trust Fund's Project-Based Housing program. The program provides financing for the development of affordable single-family and multifamily housing units.
"The Iowa Finance Authority works with partners every day to enhance the quality of life for Iowans," said Iowa Finance Authority Executive Director Dave Jamison. "The State Housing Trust Fund grant announced today is an excellent example of partnerships at work that will have a direct impact on one Boone family's quality of life. I thank the Heart of Iowa Habitat for Humanity for their shared dedication to advancing affordable housing opportunities for Iowans."
"This State Housing Trust Fund grant will allow Heart of Iowa Habitat for Humanity to move this project forward, which translates to an affordable house that a Boone family will soon call home," said Heart of Iowa Habitat for Humanity Executive Director Erich Kretzinger."The State Housing Trust Fund has proven to be a critical tool in helping us fill the funding gap on numerous projects and we appreciate the Iowa Finance Authority's partnership in making these projects a reality."
The new 1,120 square foot ranch-style home will include three bedrooms and one bathroom with an unfinished basement and will be built to Energy Star 3.0 standards. The partner family will receive financial, home repair, homeownership, and foreclosure prevention education and must also complete the required sweat equity hours prior to closing on the home.
The State Housing Trust Fund has awarded more than $49.9 million in funding and assisted nearly 16,500 affordable housing units since the program's inception in 2003. These awards have leveraged an additional $2.96 in other resources for every dollar of State Housing Trust Fund investment.
The Iowa Legislature created the Iowa Finance Authority, the state's housing finance agency, in 1975 to undertake programs to assist in the attainment of housing for low-and moderate-income Iowans.

No chowder for you
'Cause clams have feelings, too
Long before the English colonized New England, native Americans living near the Atlantic coast harvested and consumed huge quantities of clams.
The early-day colonists would eat clams when they were in danger in starving, but otherwise viewed the bivalves as more suitable food for their pigs than for themselves.
|Fried clams
Today, in the words of food writer David Leite, "fried clams are to New England what barbecue is to the South."
For some folks, the lobster roll is the ne plus ultra of summer beach cuisine. But I think even a good lobster roll pales in comparison to a plate of belly clams fresh from the Friolator.
Lawrence "Chubby" Woodman, who hailed from Essex, Massachusetts, is usually credited with inventing fried clams.
Woodman and his wife, Bessie, ran a small concession stand that sold homemade potato chips, fresh soft-shell clams that Chubby dug himself, and other items. The story goes that on July 3, 1916, Woodman complained to a visiting friend that "business is slower than a couple of snails headed uphill." The friend jokingly told Woodman he should drop a bunch of freshly-harvested soft-shell clams into his big lard-filled potato-chip fryer and see what happened. Later, that day Woodman decided to give his friend's crazy suggestion a try.
Ninety-nine years later, Woodman's of Essex is still frying up clams.
Ninety-nine years later, Woodman's of Essex is still frying up clams.
Don't confuse the soft-shell clams used to make fried clams with the hard-shell sea clams that are dredged further offshore. The "foot" of the hard-shelled sea clams was used to make the belly-less clam strips that were once sold by the now-defunct Howard Johnson's restaurant chain. The squishy, briny bellies are what make fried clams special.
Fried-clam aficionados think that clams from muddy environments are tastier than clams harvested on Cape Cod, where the clam flats are much sandier.
Earlier this month, I had muddy fried clams at Bob's Clam Hut in Kittery, Maine – just north of the Piscataqua River that separates Maine from New Hampshire – and I had sandy fried clams at Kream 'n' Kone in West Dennis, Massachusetts, which opened for business in 1953.
Both of these large, bustling clam shacks turn out excellent fried clams and delicious onion rings.
Of course, man does not live by fried clams alone. In the next 2 or 3 lines, we'll visit two other classic New England clam shacks where I opted for fried scallops and fried oysters instead of fried clams.
NOFX is a Los Angeles punk band that formed in 1983. Despite the fact that they have never been signed to a major record label, NOFX has sold eight million albums worldwide.
The bands most successful album was Punk in Drublic, which was released in 1994 and eventually went gold.
Later, NOFX released a compilation album titled 45 or 46 Songs That Weren't Good Enough to Go on Our Other Records. It contains 47 songs.
"Clams Have Feelings Too (Actually They Don't)" was released on the group's 2000 album, Pump Up The Valuum. (The band purposely misspelled Valium in hopes of avoiding a trademark lawsuit.)
It's not that great a song, but I'd like to see you come up with a song about clams that's better.
Here's "Clams Have Feelings Too (Actually They Don't)":

Are you a 'Doing it all' or 'Do what matters' woman?
Whether a stay at home; or working mom, an airplane-hopping executive, an empty-nester caring for multiple generations or a single juggling high demands of career and personal life, today's fast-paced modern world leaves women gasping for balance. We as modern Christian women want to look to the Bible for guidance on how to manage our lives — but because the world of women looks so different today than it did when the Bible was written, it is hard to find chapter and verse that seems to apply to our situation today.
Thankfully, God has given us exactly that timeless, unchanging guidance for how to find peace, clarity, and God's best for our lives once we know where to look! The Life Ready Woman: Thriving in a Do-It-All World, reveals a profound biblical roadmap for how each of us can find the abundant life we are longing for, rather than the stressful, torn, how-do-I-balance-it-all life we often feel like we are trying to keep up with today. Actually being a LifeReady Woman means that you are clear about your life, bold in your faith, and able to find God's best for you, and the end result will be that you not only survive but thrive in our do-it-all world.
God has given every wonderfully unique woman different skills and abilities, different desires, and different temperaments — and every woman around the planet and through the ages is certainly living in different circumstances. But no matter what a woman's life looks like, the Bible says that God has an individual mission and plan that He's carefully designed for each of us. And He wants us to find it. Starting January 2011, The Life Ready Woman and the Life Ready Woman Video Series will help every wonderfully unique woman to thrive as she identifies and courageously pursues God's unique design and callings for her. LifeReady Woman puts you on a roadmap to make decisions that will lead to relief, delight, and fulfillment instead of regret.

This Mom's Review & Giveaway [Ends 03/10/11]:
This book is a keeper. When I first selected the book, I thought I'd be getting the reminder of where my priorities should be. You know, 1st – God, 2nd – husband, etc…
I've always tried to number (or rank) my priorities… God first, hubby second, children third, home fourth, and not ever sure where to place my health or other things such as extended family and outside ministries.
Well, the author fixed my problem and I will no longer number these priorities! Instead, I will use her biblical advise to align my life with God's plan and purpose for me. Shaunti shows us how to weave them into whatever season of life we're in.
What I Like Most About The Book:
- I was given a clear road map to following God's plan and purpose for my life, including the What, When, Where, How, and Why.
- I saw that even thought I can't do it all right now, there is a time and place for most of the things I want or feel called to do in this life time.
- I realized the importance of using my earthly life for eternal purpose, seeing how some of what I currently do is just a waste of the time and resources on loan to me from God.
- I found some things in the book that do not agree with my current beliefs. That's not necessarily a bad thing. It has prompted me to dig into the Bible to find the truth, so that I can either change my beliefs to match God's truth or know that what I do believe is biblical.
- That the voices of the book includes both male and female. I learned some things from a man's perspective, which will hopefully help me in relating to my hubby.
This is definitely my new favorite book in the department of priorities and life/time management!
If you're a US resident and you'd like to win a copy of The Life Ready Woman, then share with me the season(s) of life you are currently in (from the book):1. Single Adult 2. Single and Engaged 3. Newly Married, No Children 4. Married with Preschoolers 5. Married with Grade-Schoolers 6. Married, Young-Adult Children (this includes teens) 7. Married, Empty Nester 8. Married In-Law, Grandparent 9. Late-in Life Widow 10. Glorified Saint (If you're in this category, then you'd better not post!)
I'm in seasons 5 & 6.
Thanks to LitFuse for the review and giveaway copies in exchange for This Mom's honest review.

The winner is Annette W. who will be contacted by email. The winner has 7 days to respond.

Hi Guys! Today I am going to unbox and review Lujobox December 2018 Edition for you all.
Lujobox is a newly launched luxury subscription box. Their first box came out in October 2018 and this is their third edition. By the way, it is to be pronounced as "LuHObox", in case you don't know! Also, before starting, I'd like to tell you guys that I delivered a baby boy two weeks ago. Now I am back and going to spam you with loads of reviews soon.
Subscription Plan:
Rs. 950 per month
Buy it here through my affiliate link without any harm to you if you want to see more unboxings in the future… Thank you in advance.
Packaging of the Box:
Since these days most of the boxes have that flip, magnetic sort of packaging, Lujobox has kept it different. The box is matte-black in color, and pretty bulky and large in size. As soon as you open the box and keep the lid aside, you see pure luxury going on. The December 2018 Edition also had a red, velvety piece of cloth with some hay inside to add some extra glam to the box.
The contents of the box are securely wrapped and kept inside. A butter paper with the initials L and J wrap the box.
Contents of the Box:
As soon as you remove the butter paper and the piece of cloth, you see two leaflets kept inside.
The actual unboxing begins… As you can see in the leaflet, there are total seven products in the box, here we go one by one.
1. MCaffeine – Coffee Body Scrub
In the box: 60 gm (Rs. 300)
Full Size: 100 gm (Rs. 449)
My Thoughts:
This is nothing new. You guys already know how much I love coffee and how well it suits my problematic skin. I have tried a number of coffee scrubs and luckily, most of them work really well for me. This one is a powdered scrub and I have previously tried powdered scrub from Vedantika Herbals but I haven't ever tried a powdered coffee scrub. I am hoping for satisfactory results already! This product is meant for normal to oily skin and is cruelty free.
2. Vert – Nude Mineral Face Powder
Full Size: 10 gm (Rs. 1,295)
My Thoughts:
I have tried Vert Solid Perfume in the past as I received it in My Envy Box July 2017 Edition. Honestly, I didn't like it at all and since then, I never came across any other product from this brand. I am hoping this mineral based powder works just as claimed and becomes one of my favorite. This powder is very finely milled and I cannot wait to try it out. This product is 100% natural and vegan.
3. All Good Scents – Jasmine Fragrance
In the box: 2 ml
Full Size: 50 ml (Rs. 1,190)
My Thoughts:
I love Jasmine fragrance and this one smells heavenly. It is mesmerizing, pleasant yet not bothersome or strong at all. I really love the cute sample size given in the box. This fragrance is made in France and is completely cruelty free.
4. Luis & Luth – Aloe Vera Face Cream
Full Size: 50 gm (Rs. 1,299)
My Thoughts:
I am completely new to this brand and have high hopes from this product as the claims and description looks very promising. Talking about the scent texture and consistency of this face cream, I quite like it. The smell is very mild, pleasing and floral. It doesn't bother my sensitive nose at all. I can instantly sniff off aloe vera in there.
The texture is very rich and smooth and the consistency is identical to that of a balm. I applied this cream on my face and I was surprised that it didn't feel heavy or greasy at all. It was quite comfortable. I cannot wait to use it regularly and give my final verdict on it.
5. Columbian Brew – Vanilla & Strong Instant Coffee
In the box: One 10 gm sachet, & two 1.3 gm sachets
Full Size: 50 gm (Rs. 190 and Rs. 119 respectively)
My Thoughts:
I am new to this brand and being a coffee lover, I could not wait to try them. I instantly made the Vanilla variant and loved it. This instant coffee has no chicory, sugar, artificial flavors or preservatives. Furthermore, the vanilla variant smells amazing and has a lovely vanilla + milky bar like smell. The strong coffee variant smells heavenly, just like usual coffee.
6. Plan 36.5 – Pearl & Cucumber Sheet Mask
Full Size: 2 pieces per box (Rs. 100 each)
My Thoughts:
This brand is another new one for me. I love coming across new brands and products in subscription boxes. Since we have got two variants of sheet masks, I'd now count the total products in the box to be nine instead of seven. My skin is very sensitive and acne prone, that is why I am extremely happy to receive Pearl and Cucumber variants. Fingers crossed!
7. Lujobox – Beauty Blender
One piece (Rs. 599)
My Thoughts:
My makeup life without a beauty sponge is just incomplete. I have never used any makeup brush for blending my foundation. I just cannot get over a sponge and try anything else. The shape and quality of this blender seems pretty good and convenient. Let's see if it can beat my current beauty sponge.
My Ratings about Lujobox December 2018 Edition:
My Final Verdict:
Trust me when I say this, I AM HIGHLY IMPRESSED BY THIS BOX. I have come across three new brands through it. The total worth of this month's box sums upto Rs. 4002 which is a steal deal. I would highly recommend you all to try Lujobox December 2018 Edition. I'm pretty sure you would love it. Most of all, I love the Colombian Brew Vanilla Instant Coffee. It really tastes awesome.
Secondly, I am most excited about using the sheet masks. I love how well the box was curated, designed and packed. Everything reached me in a perfect state. I cannot wait to see what's coming in the January 2019 Edition. A big thumbs up to the brand from my side.

Everyone deserves a great love story, and there's no exception for 17-year-old Simon. Based on the novel 'Simon and the Homo Sapian Agenda', Love, Simon is a heartfelt coming-of-age story about a teenage boy navigating family, friendships and high school, while concealing his sexuality. When a classmate threatens to reveal his secret, Simon must face the adventure of self-discovery and finding comfort in one's own identity.
This revered rom-com has been likened to that of beloved John Hughes teen flicks, with the added benefit of being the first major Hollywood studio focus on a gay teenage romance. Starring Nick Robinson and Jennifer Garner, Love, Simon will have you leaving the cinema inspired with an extra dose of courage to boot.
This screening is in partnership with Croydon Pride.

Ireland's recent showing at Eurovision have been a far cry from their heyday in the 1990's. A failure to qualify for the last 4 years has left many fans wondering what is going on at the Irish broadcaster, RTE. Following the fourth consecutive failure to qualify in Kyiv, RTE regrouped and in August 2017 they held a forum to try to work out where it went so wrong. The forum was attended by Irish music industry professionals, fans, a representative from Eurovision.tv and the Austrian Head of Delegation who shared his experience of internal selections. After lengthy discussions about options for the future, it was widely agreed that the focus should be on the song, not necessarily the singer. By partnering with the Irish music industry, RTE hopes to attract established song writers to submit songs for consideration. In September 2017, RTE invited submissions from "accomplished songwriters and performers with a proven track record of success in the music industry".
All went quiet after the call for songs was announced but this didn't stop the rumour mill from spinning. First up was pop star Samantha Mumba who tweeted that she would "love" to represent Ireland following the failure to qualify in Kyiv. This was followed up by a rumour that former Sex Pistol frontman, Johnny Rotten was in contention with reports that he had submitted a song called "Pleased to Meet You". This rumour turned out to be true with Rotten confirming that he was interested in representing Ireland. RTE, however, had other ideas and declined the offer. Perhaps the memory of Dustin the Turkey was still too fresh in their minds.
Fast forward to January 2018 and speculation mounted that RTE were about to make an announcement related to their Eurovision entry. It was widely speculated the electro pop duo, Heathers, were going to represent Ireland in Lisbon. However, it soon emerged that negotiations had fallen apart over the song choice. As experienced song-writers, Heathers were not keen on performing song penned by another songwriter. RTE then said that they had secured a "male solo singer with TV experience" and would be making an official announcement in due course. A few hours later, eagle eyed fans spotted a tweet from singer-songwriter, Ryan O'Shaughnessy with the caption "Big announcement coming tomorrow" and an Irish flag emoji. The cat was out of the bag.
After 24 hours of speculation, RTE announced that Ryan will represent Ireland at Eurovision 2018 in an official press release. RTE announced that over 300 songs were submitted for consideration and the song "Together" was chosen after being selected by a panel of music industry professionals who listened to and judged the shortlisted final entries. Ryan is a former child actor turned pop star who is no stranger to competitions. He appeared on both the Voice of Ireland and Britain's Got Talent and has released 2 singles that reached the top 10 in Ireland and the UK. He also has a Eurovision connection with his uncle, Gary O'Shaughnessy representing Ireland in 2001. Following the official announcement, Ryan provided further details about "Together". It was co-written by Ryan, Mark Caplice and Laura Elizabeth Hughes and is a nod to the one of Ireland's winning entries, "Rock and Roll Kids". Together is a gentle ballad that showcases Ryan's vocals and the music video is very cute. If RTE can get the staging right then maybe, just maybe, Ireland can break their recent streak and sneak into the final.

Since 1987, Western Suburbs District Rugby League Football Club has been committed to fostering, nurturing and developing the game of rugby league throughout our catchment and footprint, by providing opportunities and a direct pathway to Wests Tigers for our young athletes who aspire to one day play in the NRL.
Western Suburbs District Rugby League Football Club is continually striving to improve all facets of our Development and Junior Representative programs for the betterment of not only the players in our representative system, but all players within our area, comprising both Western Suburbs District Junior Rugby League and Group 6 Rugby League.
We feel that now, to further progress rugby league in our region for years to come, a restructure is required to ease and reduce the impact of issues that currently exist.
As a major shareholder of the Wests Tigers organisation, Wests Magpies (WM) encourages and supports the potential opportunity for the continuing growth of Wests Tigers (WT), which in turn, sees rugby league as the major beneficiary.
The Macarthur, Liverpool, Wollondilly and Southern Highlands regions and their requirements have been a challenge for Wests Magpies over the years, although the focal point of growing and enhancing participation in these areas has always remained at the forefront of our minds.
We have maintained our commitment to the aforementioned areas by providing and exhausting any and all possible resources available to us by way of monetary contributions, staffing, facility hire and so on, as these areas are of paramount importance to our club now, and into the future.
All things considered, we believe the time is now right for further enhancement of our Wests Tigers brand and representation in the area. WM and WT have determined that the WT Football Department will coordinate and deliver the pathways and talent development programs in the Macarthur Liverpool region due to the resourcing and available expertise of WT. The Wests Magpies remains a pivotal part of the pathway to Wests Tigers through our Ron Massey Cup and Intrust Super Premiership.
Western Suburbs District Rugby League Football Club, now in our 110th year, remains committed to the area, with growth and participation at all levels of the game being of paramount importance to the future of our club and the great game we all love.

Day Dreaming of Homemade Pasta
I have been day dreaming about my Labor Day Weekend which was busy but relaxing. One of my favorite activities was that I got to make homemade pasta for the very first time. I was a bit nervous at first considering I went to Johnson & Wales for fashion, not culinary.
I had so much fun! From making the dough, to choosing what kind of pasta Becca and I were going to make. It tasted delicious! Think I might be trying it again soon.
As I mentioned to you before, I will be posting recipes by F.I.G. Figured this one would be perfect to start off! By the way, I am also a pesto lover just like Michele.
Until my next topic...
© 2015 Gloria Isabel Nieto
By F.I.G.
This next recipe is an original I created with some inspiration from one of my culinary courses and my love for fresh ingredients. I love, love, love pesto! The smell of fresh basil takes me straight to summer and makes me think of an amazing basil pesto I once had in Rome, while visiting Italy two summers ago. Although I love a classic basil pesto, I wanted to switch this recipe up a bit. I wanted to infuse some more flavor with different types of greens.
Yield:6-8 Servings
Leek Arugula Pesto
1 Pound of pasta
2 cups of arugula
3/4 cups of fresh basil
1 1/2 pound of leeks roasted
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic gloves
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt
5 tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese, plus extra for garnish
1/4 cup of sun-dried tomatoes in oil for garnish
Take clean leeks and roast in an oven at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes or until tender and golden brown.
Toast pine nuts over medium heat in a sauté pan until golden brown. Reserve half for garnish.
In a food processor, blend arugula, basil, roasted cooked leeks, toasted pine nuts, olive oil, garlic, lemon zest and juice, cheese, salt and a few generous pinches of freshly ground black pepper. Combine until a pesto like consistency. Feel free to add extra olive oil or extra salted pasta water if the pesto looks too thick or chunky.
Place a large pot of heavily salted water on a high heat and bring to a boil. Add the pasta of your choice to the boiling salted water and cook until the pasta is al dente. Drain and place the cooked pasta back into pot. Fold in the pesto, pine nuts and sun-dried tomatoes, Serve hot or cold. Finish with a generous amount of Parmesan cheese on top, arugula, and extra virgin olive oil! Yummy!
This recipe is supper yummy and is so good hot or cold.
I hope you enjoy this recipe as my as my classmates did! Hope you enjoy xoxo
F.I.G Food is Good

2 men arrested after asking police officer for drugs
HARTFORD — In what may be described as head-scratcher to say the least, an off-duty police officer arrested two men Saturday for trying to buy drugs from him.
Early Saturday morning, a Hartford police officer had just finished working his shift and was walking to his car outside of the police station. On his way, he was approached by two men that wanted to "buy coke" asking if he could sell them some.
They then said that they would need to go to the ATM to get money. The off-duty officer then pointed out there was an ATM inside the front lobby of the police station. Police said the two men went inside to get $60 to pay the officer for the cocaine.
Once inside, the off-duty officer told another officer inside of the situation. Both suspects were arrested and the $60 they got from the ATM was taken as evidence.
Noah Yankowski, 25 of Cromwell, and Zachary Pillarella, also 25 of Cromwell, were charged with criminal attempt to possess narcotics, as well as conspiracy to possess narcotics.

4 steps towards self-acceptance
When people struggle with a lack of self-confidence, self-esteem, or self-worth, it can make just about everything in life harder.
It's not uncommon for people to compare themselves to others or feel disappointed in themselves. Such beliefs can develop for many different reasons, including bullying or trauma. But there's not always an obvious reason why we feel this way.
Below are a few tips put together by one young writer to help us all learn to be OK with ourselves.
1. Befriend yourself
Try to be objective and look at yourself as you would a best friend. If you're capable of empathy, care, compassion, love even, for them, then why not do the same for yourself?
By fighting against our negative thoughts and feelings we give them greater strength and control. If we can manage to allow the thought or emotion to just 'be' it can be easier to let go of it.
2. Acknowledge your feelings
Take a look at what you're thinking or feeling, and acknowledge it. For example, "I feel bitter, angry, sad, or happy and excited". Try looking at the emotion as it is, regardless of whether it's positive or negative.
This can take a little getting used to and it's perfectly normal to:
- experience a jumble of things at once
- not know exactly how you are thinking or feeling
- still have your 'censorship' head on, your in-built belief that things 'should' or 'shouldn't' be said, thought or felt.
Acknowledgement takes courage and is an ongoing process. Sometimes it's easy, and sometimes it's not. Both are OK.
3. Accept your feelings
Whatever you've acknowledged, whether it's positive or negative, try to accept it. This can be hard to deal with for a couple of reasons:
- resistance – it's not easy to accept certain things about ourselves, especially if they're unpleasant
- habit – it's easy to push emotions or unwanted thoughts to the back of your mind, until they surface and get the run of you, but just noticing this behaviour and accepting it will help too.
4. Give up the struggle
We often think everything in life must be fought for, or struggled with, otherwise it's not worth it. Letting go of the internal fight isn't giving up though, it's just one way of helping to mind our mental health.
We can try to look at our thoughts, feelings, short-comings and flaws without judgement. They're just feelings, they're not us and they're not permanent. Knowing this can help make it all a bit less exhausting.
The original piece was on My Mind Matters and was drawn from an article by someone identified as 'Gareth'. In his article, Gareth referred to a book called, Learning to Love Yourself, by Dr Gay Hendricks. Some elements of this book are summarised and presented in this article.

Practice makes perfect, dreams can come true, and hard work pays off. Laramie has a new dining option and an aspiration has become a reality. Mizu Sushi, which officially opened for dinner January 13th, offers sushi as well as Vietnamese entrées to Laramies downtown cuisine selections.
We want to offer something unique to the community, said Lillian Luu, co-owner of the restaurant with her brother Travis Luu. And their restaurant fits this niche perfectly.
Travis, who majored in design while at university, designed the restaurant from the ground up. Designing is about the potential of the space, he said, and when he first saw the building, he, thought it was too big. However, the location on Third Street right downtown was too good to pass up, and so the renovations began.
The goal is to, try to do your best in whatever time frame and budget you have, Travis said. Despite the challenges presented by the large space, he created a striking ambiance. Based on the colors of the wood block print, The Great Wave, by Katsushika Hokusai, the walls were repainted, removing the western look of the space from the previous restaurant.
The inspirational print sits on the back wall, embodying the meaning of the name of the restaurant, Mizu, which means water in Japanese. The new subtle tones give off a classy, sophisticated look and present an atmosphere that is relaxed and comfortable. With quiet music playing, patrons are immediately at ease to take in the surroundings and enjoy the experience of the restaurant. We strive for ambiance, said Lillian, and they have created an environment unlike any other in Laramie.
While the photos on the wall add to the theme of the restaurant, which Travis said, stems from his mothers love of gardening, the presentation of the food completes the feeling. Plates of artfully created sushi adorn the menus while descriptions detail the array of appetizers, sushi and Vietnamese dishes.
For newcomers to the restaurant and sushi, Travis suggests, the spicy tuna tempura roll as a starter, and for those who are unsure about eating raw fish, be aware that, sushi is not all raw; its a misconception, the siblings say. The caterpillar roll and dragon roll are very popular, said Lillian, both of which are cooked.
In addition to the popularity of these dishes, the varieties of soups have also been a big hit, which are, hearty meals; theyre a big bowl, Lillian said. The Vietnamese entrées, many of which are recipes from Travis and Lillians parents, present yet more options for customers to enjoy. Their parents, who temporarily came out of retirement to come to Laramie to help with the grand opening, are running the kitchen, while Travis and a friend of the family, Sam, operate the sushi bar.
Sam, who is like an extended brother to Travis, owns a sushi restaurant in Rock Springs. This restaurant is where Luu learned the art of sushi presentation. After working as a designer for some time, and then for an insurance company, Travis came to Wyoming to help at the restaurant in Rock Springs. After training under Sam, Travis went to Casper to work at a sushi restaurant run by one of Sams relatives.
"That's when I felt I was ready in terms of starting my own restaurant," Travis Luu said.
All the research, practice and work have paid off. The dream has become a reality.
Were so excited to be here, Lillian Luu said, and they have received a warm welcome. Whether youre looking to try something new, or to fulfill a taste for something outside of the norm for Wyoming, your desires are sure to be met. And dont forget, while common drinks are available, the Vietnamese style drip coffee is sure to complete the meal.

Valentine's day crafts
With Valentines day coming I have been working out what arts and crafts I can do with her that we can then reuse in her bedroom. For this reason I decided to try salt dough hearts which I could make into a garland.
I love that M is older now and so can help with adding the ingredients, cutting the dough as well as painting the hearts at the end.
I have made things with salt dough in the past so know that it works well so I decided to work with that at first.
2 cups plain flour
1 salt
1 cup water
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl until you have a dough. We then rolled the dough to the desired thickness (probably about half a centimetre) before cutting hearts out of the dough using cookie cutters.
Poke holes into both tops of the hearts.
Once I had finished I put them in the oven for 3 hours at 100 degrees before leaving to cool and painting.
Once paint is dry I will string the hearts together to make a pretty, Molly made, decoration for her bedroom!

See www.zabbix.com for the official Zabbix site.
From Zabbix.org
Support of full 64 bit address space for object IDs in non-DM setup
Status: v1.0
Owner: Alexei, Sasha
By default Zabbix should use full 64 bit space (signed int64) for all objects in standalone setup.
- SQL code should not perform any ID related filtering if running in standalone mode and it must not contain any dummy conditions like '1=1'
- Reservation of new IDs should have different allowed range for DM and standalone modes
- Existing validation (if there is any) of ID ranges should be enhanced to work differently in standalone mode
Server side details
- zabbix_server -n should verify that there are no configuration objects with IDs bigger than 99999999999999 and no historical objects (events, alerts, etc) with IDs bigger than 99999999999999999
- It should fail with error message 'Unable to convert. Some of object IDs are out of range in table "%s"' otherwise.
- Update http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.2/manual/introduction/whatsnew220
- Upgrade notes should be updated at http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.2/manual/installation/upgrade_notes_220
- It should be mentioned in both documents that in standalone setup Zabbix 2.2 will use full 64bit range for object IDs increasing maximum number of object of one type to 2^63
- Zabbix Manual should have more details on failure conditions for zabbix_server -n
- Zabbix Manual should be updated to have up-to-date information on format of Zabbix IDs
Test cases
- Standalone setup works fine and executed SQLs do not use any filtering for IDs (both server/proxy and front-end)
- Conversion using 'zabbix_server -n N' works fine
- It should fail if some of object IDs are larger than 99999999999999
- Verify that if maximum object ID is 99999999999999, a new one will be 100000000000000
- Check that in DM mode everything works as before

The poor art collector who spent masses of money on a weird and blurry painting of Jesus is the target of a sneaky ad campaign by Ikea, which is using the $450m sale of Salvator Mundi to hopefully shift a few cheap picture frames.
The joke being if you've bought a very expensive picture you might need a very cheap frame, because all your money is now tied up in a painting of a very nice right hand. Hence one of Ikea's many ad agencies suggesting you pick up one of the VISERUM frame options, yours in IKEA UK for just £10. Although it's only A4 size, so that nice cardboard mount will have to be removed in order to give the controversial Leonardo a bit more room. You could always fold down the edges to make it fit.

French Ensor Chadwick : biography
Rear Admiral French Ensor Chadwick USN (February 28, 1844 – January 27, 1919) was a United States Navy officer who became prominent in the naval reform movement of the post-Civil War era. He was particularly noted for his contributions to naval education, and served as President of the Naval War College from 1900-1903.
A native of Morgantown, West Virginia, he attended the United States Naval Academy from 1861 to 1864. During the Civil War years, the Academy was relocated from Annapolis, Maryland to Newport, Rhode Island, due to concerns about secessionist sympathy in Maryland, a border state. In 1881, Lt Commander Chadwick led the investigation into the fog signals at Little Gull Island Light in Long Island Sound after the Galatea ran around in the fog during the evening of May 12, 1881.NY Times, "Don't Believe your Ears", Feb 22, 1891History of American Steam Navigation, John H. Morrison, W. F. Sametz & CO., New York, 1908, pg 587
Major sea commands included the gunboat USS Yorktown, commissioned in 1889. He served in the Spanish-American War, fighting at the Battle of Santiago de Cuba.
He served as President of the United States Naval War College from 1900 to 1903.
As commander of the South Atlantic Squadron he played a major part in the Perdicaris incident of 1904 in Morocco.
He was also a noted historian who wrote several published books, including a noted work on The Causes of the Civil War.
Chadwick was portrayed by Roy Jenson in the 1975 film The Wind and the Lion.

Paris from a Ferrari at 140 MPH
In 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a camera to the front of a Ferrari 275 GTB . He and a professional Formula 1 driver drove through the heart of Paris at insane speeds—Porte Dauphine, through the Louvre, to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur.
In the film, the driver runs several red lights, almost hits a few pedestrians and drives the wrong way on several one-way streets. Crazy stuff.
You can view the film here (Quicktime required). More info on the film can be found here. Link via Metafilter.

A few weeks ago on the blog we discussed how the government is taking steps to try to limit the speed at which semi-trucks can travel. Advances like this in regulations can have a very real impact on road safety. Yet, the sad reality is that we likely will never be able to regulate ourselves into a world where driving is 100 percent safe. This tragically means that innocent individuals in Tennessee and throughout the U.S. will be victimized by devastating truck accidents, which can leave them with broken bones, serious cuts, torn muscles, head injuries, permanent disability and disfigurement.
The costs of being hurt in a truck accident can take many forms. Medical expenses and lost wages can, of course, wreak havoc on a victim's financial standing. In addition to these losses, a victim can experience excessive pain and suffering. Those who have these damages unfairly thrust upon them may find themselves angry and frustrated, not knowing how to take the steps they need to in order to remedy the situation.
One way to take out your frustrations and seek compensation for your losses is to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. When going up against a trucker and the truck company for which he or she works, you can face strong opposition. Aggressive defense attorneys may try to bully you into accepting settlements that are far less than your claim is worth, and if you go to trial you will be confronted with a bevy of objections to your evidence.
Therefore, those who are pursuing a personal injury lawsuit should obtain legal counsel, like that found at Costner & Greene. Our firm is dedicated to helping accident victims fight for the compensation to which they are entitled. After going up against zealous defense attorneys for years, we know what to expect and how to protect our clients' best interests. Having skilled legal representation like this can be pivotal to building and presenting the strongest case possible under the circumstances.

It seems that the team over at Ralph Lauren continues to recognize the power of the culture. The iconic brand is set to bring back their perhaps most coveted piece ever, the Polo "Snow Beach" jacket.
In November, famed producer Just Blaze posted some comparison pics of an original Cold Wave five panel long bill hat and a forthcoming retro sample but the piece never hit the shelves at retail.
View this post on Instagram
Old to the new. OG on left. '17 Retro on right. Colors definitely pop overall more on the retro, Similar to retro Stadium colorway oversaturation. The green however is a completely different shade. Also the liner band is yellow instead of white. Which is funny bc every OG band I've been is some shade of yellow now anyway after 25 years. Ha.
On Thursday, January 11 aficionados and collectors drooled at several Instagram posts indicating that RL is releasing an updated version of their iconic Snow Beach line.
Lifestylist and noted LO-head Dallas Penn set things off confirming the upcoming drop saying "I don't have any information on the release of the Snow Beach line yet but trust me I will make it public as soon as I have it."
View this post on Instagram
I don't have any information on the release of the Snow Beach line yet but trust me I will make it public as soon as I have it. I don't keep this stuff secret because I want to see as many people as possible costuming themselves as young Black males. Black men's style rules this planet from fashion to art to music. You would still have clothing if it wasn't for Black men you just wouldn't have any culture. Tell your friends to make sure to check this feed prior to 1.25.18 so you know where to go to copp your Black men's iconic style items
Soon photos from the Spring 2018 Polo lookbook started to leak adding validity to the speculation.
Even Nike seems to be wanting in on the hype as they are set to release some Air Max 1 Premiums that fall in line with the pullover's signature navy, yellow and red color scheme.
Making its' debut in Wu-Tang Clan's classic 1994 video "Can It Be So Simple" video it instantly became one of the hottest jackets on the streets.
Years later the pullover has become the holy grail of all LO items making any lucky owner an instant style god. Many other brands have tried replicating it, but it ain't Ralph though.
Unfortunately, there is already doubt on how attainable it will be when January 25 comes around. In September Polo surprisingly went the streetwear route by releasing their also highly acclaimed 1992 Stadium line through retailer Jimmy Jazz. This left many enthusiasts leaving empty handed as the items were limited and only sold on a ticketed basis only.
As of now details on availability for the return of the Snow Beach are not yet known but we hope Uncle Ralph does right by the true lovers of 'LO.

Author/Illustrator: Eva Montanari
In her little red house, Mommy A settles down to write a story. But she just can't decide what to write! Of course, all the ruckus from her little children letters doesn't help her concentration any. So instead of writing, Mommy A goes through the house, collecting her children (and pulling them away from all their random activities) to tell them a story (and possibly achieve some level of quiet). But when she and all the little letters get settled for some storytelling, Daddy Z's snoring distracts them–and when they find him, he looks so comfy they all lie down together for a nap. Poor Mommy A, she never does get her story told–maybe someone else could help tell the story?
In terms of children's alphabet picture books, The Alphabet Family ranks in my opinion. There's none of your mundane "A is for apple" rubbish; rather you have a full and interesting story with actual characters. Yet you also have all of the letters introduced in order–and often more different ways of writing the same letter than you see in other books. The pictures are fun and engaging–most of them using the alphabet to create all sorts of interesting items, from instruments to food to butterfly nets. Plus, I think this story challenges children to use their own creative talents. I am definitely going to introduce The Alphabet Family to the kids I know as they are growing old enough to start learning their letters.
