But this Vietnamese shredded chicken salad is great for a use of leftover chicken, or for putting a rotisserie chicken to a new use! This recipe is also great for all those busy school nights, and extra curricular activities that are back with a vengeance! If you have the dressing made ahead, it takes nothing to throw together all the salad ingredients, serve it up with a fresh french baguette, and you're good to go!
I had a savoy cabbage to be used up, but the original recipe called for a napa cabbage, I wondered what the difference would be for which cabbage I used, and found this great article via the Kitchn - a never ending source of knowledge - check them out!
Vietnamese Shredded Chicken Salad
Recipe adapted from: Saveur
1-2 red chiles (Thai or serrano), seeded & minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tablespoon sugar
1 Tablespoon rice wine vinegar
3 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
3 Tablespoon fish sauce
3 Tablespoon canola oil
1 green onion, chopped
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
4 cups shredded napa cabbage
2 medium carrots, matchsticked
½ cup roughly chopped cilantro and/or mint
Freshly ground black pepper
Seed red chiles, then mince. (It is always best to wear rubber gloves, or work through a plastic bag when working with chiles.) Place chiles in small Tupperware, bottle, or jar. Add to container garlic, sugar, rice wine vinegar, fresh lime juice, fish sauce, and oil. Place lid on container of choice, and shake until sugar dissolves.
In a large salad bowl, add together shredded chicken, shredded cabbage, carrots, onions, and fresh cilantro/mint. Season with freshly ground black pepper, toss ingredients to incorporate pepper, and then pour dressing over whole thing, or serve in individual bowls and add dressing separately, this will leave you with fresh and still crunchy leftovers! Serve with a fresh french baguette for all the gluten lovers out there!

Grilled in its husk, the corn takes on a wonderful, lightly charred flavor while its sugars caramelize and intensify. Soaking in salted water lightly seasons the corn and helps keep it moist as it grills. Then, since the silks have been removed, just peel and enjoy.
How to Make It
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Pull the husks back from corn, keeping husks intact; scrub off silks, and pull husks back over corn to cover. Place corn and salt in a large stockpot; cover with water. Let stand 45 minutes; drain.
Place corn on grill rack, and grill for 8 minutes on each side or until husks are blackened. Serve grilled corn with butter.

OK, behind his back I call my husband Mr. Dull, I say you could step into his closet with your eyes closed and pick any two items and they will match. He does not understand the fabric / quilting / color thing at all.
So today I went to my LQS to get some fabric for a class this Friday. I needed two complementary colors, six shade of each ranging from very light to very dark, should read as solid. Now you know you go in there and it seems like there must be 100 shades of yellow alone. I start of by saying I think I would like yellow and blue, we are unable to find six colors of yellow that really play together. So we move to blue and do find the blue eventually. By now I have invested a lot of time, but am ready for next color and one of the women gets out the color wheel, finds this beautiful brown and voila in no time we have six shades of this ranging from creamy yellow to dark brown. The whole mix is beautiful, I am actually hugging the staff in gratitude, I know my quilt will be the best in the whoel class. It took over an hour to do this.
I come home, have the fabrics laying out just so I can walk by and admire them. My husband comes home from work, I say 'aren't these gorgeous colors' and he agrees. I tell him about the project, and he says 'you mean you are going to use them together?' If it was up to him our whole house would be done in brown and beige.

Talk about rate shock.
The state's gas and electric utilities aim to recover nearly $1 billion in costs they incurred restoring power and service after extreme storms in the past few years, and the costs keep rising.
And that's not all.
The cost to utility customers to harden the power grid dwarfs even that amount in filings by companies to the New Jersey Board of Utilities, with utilities seeking to spend in excess of $4 billion on projects to avert similar widespread outages as those that occurred during Sandy and other storms in recent years.

Creative Jumpstart 2013 - Part 3
Nathalie Kalbach showed us how to use a stencil and glossy gel medium to make a resist, then spray with mists to get this very cool effect.
Catherine Scanlon had loads of journaling ideas, and how to step back in the process and just look at things again to see what is in front of you. I will definitely be trying her ideas out in my art journal.
Nathalie shared another technique-stamping on transparencies with gesso and using it to add layers to your work.
Anna Bjorklund had some cute ideas with seed beads, so I thought I would try this out to remember for the future. Thanks to all the fabulous folks sharing their talents with us in Creative Jumpstart!

The Employment Claims Toolkit makes assessing the value of employment claims quicker, more accurate and more consistent.
Data protection? Read about how your data is managed
New on the Toolkit!
Pension loss
We are delighted to announce that the Toolkit has been modified to take account of changes in the way pension loss should be calculated following the publication of the Principles. There is now a new Pension loss link just above the Adjustments link on the left hand side which will handle loss of employer contributions for both wrongful dismissal and compensatory awards.
Grossing up
We have also introduced a new grossing up facility to cater for multiple tax rates (including Scottish tax rates) and the new tax rules on injury to feelings awards.
Accelerated payment
You can now enter a negative percentage rate to take account of the -0.75% discount rate.
Damages capped at £25,000
The Toolkit will now automatically cap the damages for wrongful dismissal at £25,000 as this is the most that can be claimed in the ET.
Interpolated Ogden multipliers
For complex defined benefit pension loss, Ogden tables might be needed. The tables list the multipliers that should be used but only in bands of 5 years. The Toolkit now includes a table showing the multipliers for all ages - you can find it under the Tables and Calculators at the bottom of the left hand menu.
Why use the Toolkit?
Watch a recording of the webinar we presented in April 2017 to employment judges throughout the country to help you understand how it works in practice.
Now also used in private practice, FTSE100 in-house legal teams and unions - for both claimant and respondent - the Employment Claims Toolkit is rapidly becoming the standard for calculating remedy in all employment disputes.
Use the Toolkit throughout the life of any employment dispute to
- get a quick assessment of what is at stake
- agree an accurate statement of remedy for early conciliation and negotiation
- produce a polished statement of remedy for the hearing
- adjust to reflect any agreed settlement or a final award - complete with grossing up and recoupment
- help manage risk for your firm and your insurers

Make New Time Rules
Fact: We are all operating on unspoken time rules.
Financial advisors often recommend to set "money rules," such as "save 10 percent of every paycheck." Money rules help you be decisive and stay true to your financial goals. For efficiency and quality of life, you can apply the same concept to your time by setting new time rules.
Here are some examples.
Would any of these rules work for you? To set time rules, notice what's not working about the way you spend your time, and write down what would work—the way you wish you could spend your time.
For instance, "It's not working for me to have people walking into my office all day. I would prefer to have at least two consecutive hours a day with the door closed." Rule: I close my door for two hours a day.
Time rules, even small ones, have the advantage of being concrete and explicit, making it easier to hold yourself accountable. Once you set a rule, you'll want to communicate it so you can accommodate the people in your life. They can only respect your boundaries if you're clear about them. They can only follow the rules if you set them.
Power Down
Fact: Your brain gets a stress signal every time an email or text message comes in.
Power down means turn off the technology. Yes, the wonders of technology can help us maximize, save, leverage and organize our time. However, technology can also eat up all your time.
Just because you can be available 24/7 doesn't mean you should be. Just because you can instant message at the same time you're writing a report doesn't mean you should. Just because you can perch your laptop on the passenger seat of your car to tap out ideas while stuck in traffic doesn't mean you should.
Give the brain time without stress, relaxing with family, exercising, eating well and sometimes, just sometimes, ignoring those emails. In other words, be the one to take control of your technology so you can get the important things done, rather than being distracted all day long.
"Wait a minute," you may be thinking. "My team expects me to be available 24/7!" This is not about ignoring people or shirking responsibility. It's about helping you focus so you can be more productive during your working hours. Most of your business partners don't really expect you to be there 24/7. Find out their expectations, then create appropriate guidelines.
When you occasionally "power down" and do what brings you progress and fulfillment, you'll be much more effective in all your efforts.
Take a Virtual Vacation
Fact: Research has shown that your brain needs time to rest and recover.
Just as your muscles need to recover from strenuous workouts, your brain needs time to recover from concentrated work. And while it would be wonderful to take a two-week trip to Tahiti every few months, few of us can realistically do that. However, you can take a short virtual vacation as often as you need.
Here are three simple ways to go on a virtual vacation:
Whatever you choose, be sure it engages your mind, either by helping you escape into a meditative state or getting you so involved in something else that you forget about work for a while.
Virtual vacations give your mind the space and rest it needs to function optimally. As a result, you gain a clearer mind, which leads to more productive work. You get better ideas and find solutions to problems that enable you to blast through a project or shave time off a task.
Ultimately, gaining productivity by maximizing your time is not about what you should do; it's about what you choose to do. Take control of your time and watch your productivity soar. Remember, the goal is not just to make the best use of your time; it's to use time to get the most out of your work and your life.

|Colin with Cryptozoologist Ken Gerhard
Paranormal 101 is run by up and coming researcher of the strange, Colin Schneider. I met Colin during my appearance at this year's Dogman conference in Ohio. It's always impressive to see young people involved in the field, especially when they clearly demonstrate a passion for pursuing the weird.
Colin is making an effort to attend events, meet people who have been active in the field to ask their advice, and most impressively, Colin reads extensively in his area of study. Too often, new researchers rely on sitting and watching hours of reality television shows and falling under the misconception that they're getting an accurate idea of what it's like to investigate and explore the strange.
It's up to all of us who are veterans in the field to encourage the young up and coming researchers, as with everything else, the youth are the future and will be the ones who continue the quest for answers into the future.
Keep an eye on this young man, I suspect we'll be hearing much, much more from him in the years to come. And be sure to check out his blog.

ALX-0761/M1095 – anti-IL-17A/F to treat auto-immune disorders
Psoriasis is a common, chronic, relapsing, immune-mediated systemic disease characterised by skin lesions including red, scaly patches, papules and plaques, which usually itch. The skin lesions seen in psoriasis may vary in severity from minor localised patches to complete body coverage. About 50% of patients with severe and moderate psoriasis receive only topical or no treatment at all and more than half of the patients are dissatified with current treatments. Recent research suggests that IL-17 blockers could be more efficaceous than TNFa blockers for the treatment of psoriasis (source: Nature Biotechnology, Vol 33, Jan 2015; Nature Reviews Drug Disovery, Hilary Bartlett & Ryan Million, Jan 2015).
ALX-0761/M1095 mode of action
ALX-0761/M1095 (40kD) is a trivalent, bi-specific Nanobody that blocks both IL-17A and IL-17F and that binds to human serum albumin for in vivo serum half-life extension. Th17 cells and IL-17 are associated with the pathology of many human inflammatory and autoimmune disorders like psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and multiple sclerosis.
Presentation: Results from the Phase Ib study of M1095/ALX-0761 at the annual AAD Conference, Orlando, Florida (5 March 2017), demonstrate that all patients in the highest dose group achieved 90% skin clearance (PASI 90).Poster: Pre-clinical proof-of-concept of ALX-0761, a Nanobody neutralising both IL-17A and IL-17F in a cynomolgus monkey collagen induced arthritis model.

Groundwater in Spain: legal framework and management issues

Spain is a country with a large hydrogeologic potential. As in other southern European countries the water resources, besides urban supply, are used mainly for irrigation and much of the groundwater abstraction is concentrated in a number of intensively exploited aquifers. Groundwater was declared a public domain resource in Spain in 1985, but the real implementation of such a declaration has encountered many difficulties in practice. Because groundwater was a private property before the 1985 Water Act, it was not considered a task for water management agencies and water authorities in Spain. As with aIl the European Union Member States, Spain is nowadays fuIly involved in the process of implementing the principies of the European Water Framework Directive (WFD) (European Commission, 2000). Such a process constitutes a unique opportunity to improve groundwater protection and knowledge, and achieve effective management of this resource. However, to adapt the WFD principies to the hydro-climatic and socio-economic context of a south European Mediterranean country is not an easy task. The current papel' provides an overview of the hydrogeologic context and groundwater management practices in Spain. The main groundwater "facts and figures" of Spain are introduced first, mainly concerning the hydrogeologic knowledge and groundwater use in the country, with a section on specific technical measures. A summary of the groundwater management context is described afterwards, introducing the institutional and legal framework as weIl as sorne basic concepts related to groundwater management, and also a section on groundwater cost issues. Next, a section of discussion about the ongoing process of the WFD implementation in Spain is offered. This paper finishes with a general summary and some conclusions.

Adulting 101: How to Save Money on Pet Care
Wondering how to save money on pet care? Owning a pet takes on a whole new meaning when you're out of mom and dad's house! Just like having a child, bringing a new pet into your home is a potential 18-year commitment, so it's important to be aware of the different challenges and costs that come with pet care. Here are a few tips on how to save money on pet care so that you and your fur babies don't run into financial trouble down the road:
1) Adopt
More and more places are cracking down on corrupt puppy and kitty mills that force animals to breed, and then the mills sell the litters for outrageous prices. Although the urge to own a purebred pup might be strong, with a little due diligence you can often find them at shelters for a fraction of the cost. Animals in shelters are often abandoned, abused, and many are euthanized if they can't be placed in a home. You can make a difference by giving them a new life full of love and security. Often the funds you do spend will go towards keeping these facilities in operation. Check out the app AllPaws, which helps pair hopeful pet parents with their perfect match based on activity level, housing type, and other variables.
2) Buy pet food in bulk
Whether you prefer to put your pet on a specific diet or a simple, no-frills routine, you can often buy your pet food in bulk on sites like Amazon or Chewy.com. Membership warehouses like Costco and Sam's Club and big chains like Target also sell bulk pet food to help you cut costs. Avoid paying extra for pet foods that promise "premium" nutrition without specifying their value. According to Consumer Reports, any pet foods, including store brands, labeled "complete and balanced," "total nutrition" or "100 percent nutritious" will meet nutritional standards.
3) Make homemade pet toys
If you've ever had the pleasure of moving with a cat in tow, you've probably witnessed them go crazy climbing in and out of empty boxes. We always want our pets to have the best of the best when it comes to entertainment, but they're much easier to please than we are. A simple string, laser pointer, or empty box can do wonders for keeping a kitty busy, and a few tennis balls can last a lifetime with an energetic pup. Here are a few fun ideas to get you started.
4) Save on pet meds
A healthy pet should have fairly low veterinary costs, and you can cut those further by ordering meds from 1-800-PETMEDS or PetCareRX, which offer regular deals and discounts, unlike your local vet's office. Do a little research on the prescription and see if you can find a generic version at Rite Aid or Walmart for a fraction of the cost.
5) DIY grooming
You'll notice your pet's coat change with the seasons depending on where its breed originates from and if they're long or short-haired. Invest in a pet shampoo and perhaps a cheap plastic kiddie pool (or a bathtub depending on the size of your animal) and groom them regularly at home instead. By brushing their teeth, clipping nails, and washing them every week or two, you will cut your grooming visits down to a few times a year.
Just like with a child, there are ways to budget and make your money go further with pet care. And unlike an infant, you won't have to worry about the costs of daycare, health insurance or college down the line. As more people recognize the financial advantages of raising a furry friend, there's a chance that the millennial generation might end up having more pets than children!

When I define an elastic foundation, is there any possibility to make the springs for tension or compression fail?
In the current RFEM and RSTAB versions, it is possible to let elastic foundations fail for tension or compression.
In RFEM, you can apply this function to line supports as well as surface supports. For this, click "Insert" -> "Model Data" -> "Line / Surface Supports" or "Edit" -> "Model Data" ... etc. The "Nonlinearity" option specifies the failure type.
In RSTAB, you can only set a "Member Elastic Foundation". The failure is defined in the same way as in RFEM.

Dr. Ambrosie Bryant Chukwueloka OrjiakoChairman
A.B.C. Orjiako, a co-founder of Seplat, was appointed as a director on 14 December 2009 and as Chairman on 3 March 2010.
After obtaining an M.B.B.Ch. degree in 1985 from the College of Medical Sciences, University of Calabar, Nigeria, Dr Orjiako trained as a General Surgeon at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Lagos, and later sub-specialised in orthopaedic and trauma surgery and became a fellow of the West African College of Surgeons in 1996.
Whilst still practicing at the National Orthopaedic Hospital, Igbobi, Lagos, Dr Orjiako established and managed various companies in the upstream, downstream and services sectors of the oil and gas industry in Nigeria. These include Abbeycourt Trading Company Limited (with which he traded crude oil and refined petroleum products with, amongst others, Glencore UK Limited), Abbeycourt Energy Services Limited, Zebbra Energy Limited and Shebah Exploration and Production Company Limited. He also has other business interests in construction, real estate development, pharmaceuticals and shipping.
Dr Orjiako went into full-time business in 1996 after eleven years of active medical practice. He co-founded Seplat in 2009 and became the Chairman, spearheading new business development and fundraising as well as providing leadership on strategy and stakeholder relationships. He is also the chairman of Neimeth Pharmaceutical International plc, which is listed on the NSE, and a director of MPI, which is listed on NYSE Euronext Paris.
Consolidating his firm commitment to philanthropy, Dr Orjiako founded the Daniel Orjiako Memorial Foundation (''DOMF'') in 1996 in honour of his late father, Chief Daniel O. Orjiako. The DOMF is committed to breaking the poverty cycle in rural Nigerian communities through education, healthcare services and economic empowerment through agriculture.

Georgia judge declines bail for operator of crematory
Saturday, February 23, 2002
NOBLE, Ga. -- A judge declined to set bail Friday for the operator of a north Georgia crematory where nearly 300 decaying bodies have been discovered.
Magistrate Judge Jerry Day said he would decide in the next few days whether Ray Brent Marsh should be eligible for bail.
Prosecutors argued Marsh should not be released because of the outrage in the community. Walker County Sheriff Steve Wilson said death threats had been called in against Marsh.
Marsh's attorney, Ken Poston, said his client was not a flight risk and had lived in the community all his life. He said concern for Marsh's safety was no reason to deny him freedom.
Poston said Marsh had no intention of leaving town, or going back to his family's crematory, if he is released on bail.
"He's not going anywhere near that property," Poston said.
Marsh, wearing a bulletproof vest, sat quietly during the hearing, occasionally consulting with his attorney. His sister and wife attended but did not speak to reporters. Neither Marsh nor his family members have made any public comment.
Marsh, 28, is charged with 16 counts of theft by deception for allegedly taking payment for cremations he never performed. Wilson told the judge 289 bodies have been found on the Tri-State grounds. At least 54 have been identified.
The sheriff also declined to speak with reporters following the hearing, citing a gag order imposed Thursday by a judge. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, WSB-TV and WSB Radio in Atlanta filed a motion Friday challenging the gag order.

If there is anything that excites me about evangelizing VoIP for so long it's that the mainstream media is picking up on it in droves. I believe the industry has the opportunity to focus on services now, while we are in the spotlight. Whenever we talk to the press, we need to focus on services that are new and exciting and most of all useful.
The reason is obvious. If all we focus on is "VoIP is cheaper," where will we be in two years? We will have taught the world that VoIP should be near free. While this may be good in the short term, the long-term view IMO is that VoIP service providers need to generate enough revenue so that they can keep adding new and compelling services that will keep consumers happy and reduce customer churn. Customers will pay for compelling services. We need to give these services to them.

I've fallen behind on my weekly posts. Two straight weeks of work travel will do that to a prego girl. I'm not sure how much longer I can travel. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow, and that's my only big question for her right now. However, I will say, traveling on the verge of my third trimester hasn't been bad. I was a little concerned about the puffiness factor, but by drinking tons of water, I seemed to conquer that issue with ease. I also take a daily baby aspirin (just to be safe based on some little blood thing I was tested for because of my genetics), which helps with the whole increased risk of flying thing, too. So, while the two weeks did wear me out, I can't say it was any more so than it would have been non-pregnant. Right now I don't have any more scheduled trips for work before the due date, but as of now I can't say I'd need to turn one down if I did…unless of course, my doctor said to. And now Baby P. can add Minneapolis ( Mall of America included) and Washington D.C. (second time, actually) to his list of in utero travels.
I've also somehow managed to get A LOT done in the world of baby preparation the past few weeks…
1.I finally registered at Babies R Us (something I was dreading, and swore I wasn't going to do. When it came down to it, I had no choice. Thank God I have a very focused and experienced sister to guide me).
2. We got his stroller. And never in my life would I have imagined getting giddy over a baby stroller. But, yes, I did. I was really struggling with what to get at first. And although I had a wealth of opinions coming my way on what/how many I needed, I went with my own gut. I really, really, really didn't want to have to have 8 strollers in my garage. And while the travel systems look all cozy, they also seem bulky with a short usage period. And while the joggers look really cool, I don't really jog…and if I do, I don't think I will with the baby…and if I do, I'll splurge and get one when the time comes (I know, joggers are good for rugged terrain, too. But the reviews for the one I picked said it's great on sidewalks, and for now, that's as rugged as I plan to get). And then there's that shopping cart thing, and the umbrella stroller…See, people, this is stressful!
But then that stress was relinquished when I discovered — the BumbleRide Flite.
It's basically the whole package. It works with the car seat I want, then converts to a simple umbrella-type for later. It folds easily (I plan to keep my Jetta for as long as I can), and is super light, yet durable. And, it's actually really good-looking! Yes, we will be stylin'. So far, I love it. Let's hope this love remains when it actually contains a baby, too!
3. My RUG came!
I was waiting and waiting, and since it was on backorder I even got a little nervous. But it came and it's adorable and I even…
4. …picked out a paint color to match! Yep, I painted Baby P's room turquoise this weekend, and it's so, so cute. Granted, it's bright (as Lucas immediately pointed out), but it's cheery and adorable. And now I can't wait to do the rest. As soon as it all comes together (don't hold your breath, this is gonna take a few weeks), I'll post some pics. At least I've gotten the ball rolling.
So, that's my past three weeks in a nutshell. And now I've reached the third trimester! The bigger my belly gets, the more prepared I am for him to come. And, yet, there's still so much to do. We're getting there. Come on "nesting," time to work your magic…
