Job Order ContractsThe Job Order Contracting (JOC) process is a flexible, cost-effective unit price contracting method used by the Department to complete maintenance, repair, and refurbishment of County infrastructure and building facilities. JOCs are publicly advertised for competitive bidding and awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidders in accordance with the State Public Contracting Code. The use of JOCs is a straightforward contracting process that provides accelerated project delivery, reduces administrative costs, and lowers direct construction costs while meeting all Federal, State, and County procurement requirements. In addition, the JOCs include a Local Worker Goal that requires a good faith effort by the contractor, and any subcontractor, to employ local workers to perform at least 40 percent of the total construction worker hours expended on each individual work order issued against the JOC. Each JOC contract is for a duration of one year and is limited to a $4.5 million ultimate contract value.
The contract documents for a JOC consist of the specifications and a list or catalog of stipulated unit prices for various items of work. The latter is sometimes referred to as the "Construction Task Catalog" (CTC) or "Unit Price Book." Depending upon the structure of the contract documents and the number of items, the unit price book may be a separate, bound document or included at the back of the specifications. All of the unit prices incorporate appropriate local wage, local materials and local equipment prices, and are for the direct cost of construction. The bid is comprised of an overall factor that is applied to the unit prices listed in the price book, and the contract is awarded to the bidder with the lowest aggregate bid factor.
After award of the contract, work is authorized by issuing individual work orders on an as needed basis. The contractor, under the JOC contract, furnishes management, labor, materials, equipment, and engineering support needed to perform the work. Plans and other details of work to be performed are issued to the contractor as part of the work order process.

You will find different types of scales utilized in different industries of existence, many are smaller sized scales for example kitchen scales or bathroom scales yet others are bigger scales for example industrial floor scales, etc. The bigger scales like industrial scales can be used for weighing huge weights these weights are usually in tons. Most frequent industrial scales easily show weights beginning in one ton as much as twenty a lot of weights (that's almost 40,000 pounds of weight). With your large measurement, reliability and precision is definitely an issue. So, whenever you will buy the industrial scales, you need to take proper care of some minor issues.
Prior to getting these scales, you have to evaluate your needs and take proper care of weighing capacity, dimensions and kinds from the scale. The weighing convenience of industries matter a great deal because every industry has different weighing needs in various seasons. Similarly, industries face many good and the bad during span of their procedures plus they grow with passage of your time. Hence their weighing needs change with seasons and various phases of growth, so before purchasing industrial scales, an industrialist will need to take proper care of periodic weighing needs, market demand trends and the industry growth to be able to meet any type of needs regarding load dimensions.
Similarly, size the ground scaling is usually a problem you don't want to finish up getting either too small-scale that you're not able to place your loads correctly onto it or too massive it hides your whole room. Industrial floor scaling merely has two shapes, i.e. a square or perhaps a rectangle, the majority of the industries should you prefer a square scale however the shape is mainly determined by the weighing needs. The dimensions from the scales vary from three by three to 10 by ten ft. These scales are usually as much as 5 inches greater in the floor and could be decreased if needed. For putting the loads around the scales, glides and dollyings can be found which will make the loading and unloading from the weights much simpler and faster. Sometimes the scales are fixed with ramps on their own sides these ramps will also be for assisting the loads. You are able to wheel very household names easily with the aid of these ramps.
The options to floor scaling are jacks and forklifts. But as it pertains lower to liquid substances or chemicals there's no option to these scales. Jacks and forklifts can be used for calculating very heavy loads and solid items and are generally utilized in warehouses or manufacturing models of the profession. Floor scaling isn't much used at such places due to the truth that it's fixed at one place and also you cannot move it to various locations. Industrial scales are critical within the chemicals industry since the liquid substances can't be measured precisely until and unless of course they're settled lower and they're settled correctly on floor scales only. By trying to determine them before settling them, your load could be inaccurately measured and also you will not have the ability to depend in it.

This section is my summary of studying and practicing Physical Education.
Physical Education (P.E.), this is the eighth (8th) subject in our homeschooling curriculum. P.E. in homeschooling is comprised of many non-standard but real cool things. We have a lot of standard sport items, such as: baseball, football, basketball, soccer, volleyball, kickball, and tumbling. But we also have a lot of non-standard cool sport items like: lacrosse, golf, boxing, martial arts, weight-lifting, aerobics, trail-bike riding, rollerblading, rollerblade-hockey, badminton, horse shoes, camping, hiking, archery, shooting, swimming, fishing, and navigation.
I enjoy trail-bike riding, swimming, hiking, and camping the most. As well, I enjoy all the sports on the "PS3-Move" system. LOL!!!

He started farming on a small scale sending and drawing milk to the creamery, he gradually built up his herd. At some stage, the late Noel decided to get into pigs which expanded over the years and grew to be one of the best piggeries in Ireland. Noel was a very well respected and he was held in high esteem in the farming community and to anyone that knew him he was a pure gentleman. Noel was married to Patsy Conway, Legan and they have three children Ronnie, Veronica and Brid. Noel loved to walk along the canal stopping to chat to both locals and visitors. In recent years, Noel loved to visit Eniscrone, he loved to walk on the beach taking in the fresh air with his wife and life long friend Patsy. Noel was a very big family man, he loved them all, he adored his ten grandchildren. His sudden tragic death has left the whole parish in deep sadness. To his heartbroken wife Patsy, his son Ronnie, daughters Veronica and Brid, sons in law George and Kim, daughter in law Breda, his grandchildren, his sisters Lily Masterson, Athlone and Mai Farrell, New York. To all his relatives, friends and neighbours, we extend our deepest sympathy. May he rest in Peace R.I.P.

|Jeremiah 42
King James Bible
Chapter 43
And it came to pass, [that] when Jeremiah had made an end15 of speaking15 unto all the people all the words of the LORD their God, for which the LORD their God had sent1 him to them, [even] all these words,
Then spake4 Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying6 unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest18 falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent1 thee to say,2 Go4 not into Egypt to sojourn2 there:
But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth56 thee on against us, for to deliver2 us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to death,53 and carry us away captives53 into Babylon.
So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, obeyed1 not the voice of the LORD, to dwell2 in the land of Judah.
But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took4 all the remnant of Judah, that were returned1 from all nations, whither they had been driven,8 to dwell2 in the land of Judah;
[Even] men, and women, and children, and the king's daughters, and every person that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left52 with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah.
So they came4 into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed1 not the voice of the LORD: thus came4 they [even] to Tahpanhes.
Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,2
Take3 great stones in thine hand, and hide1 them in the clay in the brickkiln, which [is] at the entry of Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;
And say1 unto them, Thus saith1 the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will send6 and take1 Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set1 his throne upon these stones that I have hid;1 and he shall spread1 his royal pavilion over them.
And when he cometh,1 he shall smite52 the land of Egypt, [and deliver] such [as are] for death to death; and such [as are] for captivity to captivity; and such [as are] for the sword to the sword.
And I will kindle52 a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn1 them, and carry them away captives:1 and he shall array1 himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd6 putteth on4 his garment; and he shall go forth1 from thence in peace.
He shall break14 also the images of Bethshemesh, that [is] in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn4 with fire.

Some of it is good and some not so college useful for students going off to college. Some of these compaines can even be too agressive in sending far too many emails to you.
My answer to this is if they do go overboard on their email marketing campaigns, then just block them, or unsubscibe and then only work with those who seem to be promoting their information to you nicely and to your liking. Again if they get too pushy – block them and move on to others who respect your wishes and have proper email marketing etiquette.
This does not mean you shouldn't apply to their drawings though. You will have an equal chance to win the drawing because most are regulated in some way to keep these drawing contest somewhat legitimate. You really can't afford to have any unclaimed scholarships in your closet so to speak when searching for college tuition today because college is far too expensive and increases happen every year for nearly all colleges and universities.

Planet View: S28°54.571′ E136°20.338′
Street View: S28°54.571′ E136°20.338′
An early start this morning as we were woken at sunrise by flocks of hundreds of sulphur-crested cockatoos that inhabit the dry creek bed at Farina. Talk about nature's alarm clock! A quick Greek coffee, something both of us are addicted to after our time in Greece, and we headed off to quickly top up the tank at Marree. Marree is the most we've paid for fuel yet, $1.79 for each liter of diesel ($USD5.42 per gallon), I'm going to keep track of fuel prices and see just how high they get! We drove on our last stretch of paved road for a few kilometers just south of Marree, north of Marree is the official beginning of the Oodnadatta Track. The Oodnadatta Track makes its way around the southern end of Lake Eyre, through a few stations along the way, for a total of a little over 400 kilometers from Marree to Oodnadatta. It's a favorite amongst 4WD enthusiasts, the stretch a vast expanse of dirt road covered in claypans, rocks and bone-jarring corrugations. With the tires of The Tank let down around 20% and keeping her chugging around 80 kilometers per hour the corrugations weren't too bad, although when we arrived at William Creek this afternoon we were greeted with a layer of red dust caked over everything close to the back doors (something we'd been warned about). Just out of Marree we crossed the dingo fence, the longest man-made structure on the planet, stretching more than 5,500 kilometers. We also passed along the southern edge of Lake Eyre South, the massive expanse of the lake stretching as far as the eye could see, the photo below to the right just doesn't do it justice. Lake Eyre's elevation 12 meters below sea level was evident from the rings of salt encrusted around its edge. We also ran into a couple more of the 4WD buses filled with retirees we encountered in Parachilna, we're definitely the youngest people we've encountered along the way so far…
We stopped off at Coward Springs (S29°24.052′ E136°48.796′) for lunch, a popular spot of yesteryear when the railway ran through on the way between Alice Springs and Adelaide. Coward Springs is an oasis in the middle of the red dunes of the desert, mineral water bubbling up from the artesian basin below after traveling 2,000,000 years on its journey underground from Queensland. The owners of the station surrounding Coward Springs have turned the railway ruins and surrounding wetlands into a campground and museum, it' the only public campground between Marree and William Creek, quite a nice one at that. The wetlands are host to an array of wildlife, particularly birds, we encountered a couple of huge red-headed brolgas picking for food alongside the creek, beautiful big birds. The water bubbling up from the basin below is quite warm so I decided to take a dip in the springs' desert spa. Amazing to be in the middle of the desert one minute and then be relaxing in a warm bath the next. I think a few of the other travelers making their way through were a little jealous they hadn't brought their swimming gear when they saw me sunning myself in the tub!
From Coward Springs we made the final stretch of our drive today to the eclectic town of William Creek. The drive was dotted with beautiful red dunes amid the saltbush-covered plains (we should have stopped for a photo) as well as mounds of dirt here and there pushed up by the water pressure from the artesian basin below. William Creek boasts to be Australia's smallest town with a population of 10. It's essentially a pub and a couple of ramshackle buildings in the middle of the desert, scraping through with the help of Wrightsair running scenic flights over Lake Eyre and its location alongside the Oodnadatta Track. William Creek is also in the middle of the world's largest working cattle station, the Anna Creek Station covers a monstrous 5,875,000 acres making it roughly the size of Israel or Wales! The William Creek pub, established in 1887, is at the centre of town and is an eclectic mix of treasures from all over the world. The walls are covered with everything from Swiss exchange students' ID cards to DD-sized brassieres left by tourists from Queensland. Really quite a sight! The pub also offers dinner, you can order up a chicken schnitzel for $28 (a chicken breast breaded and fried for you that weren't born in Australia or Germany) and buy cans of VB at the bar for $6.50 a pop. The pub manages everything from the adjacent campground to helicopter flights to the Painted Hills and also rounds of golf at the William Creek Golf Course. Don't think you'll be seeing it on the PGA tour this year… We're spending the night here in William Creek tonight and taking a scenic flight over Lake Eyre with Wrightsair at 7:30AM tomorrow. The lake is full of water once every decade or so, we're both excited to see it from the air.

Oso y Madroño statue, Prosperidad metro stop
One day into our new place, I had already had a meltdown. Highlights of the day that contributed to this:
- I was exhausted from moving everything via metro the day before
- I felt lost—I didn't know where anything in the new neighborhood was
- An attempt to copy a pair of keys took two (TWO!) hours
- Procedures at the bank in this barrio were different than what I was used to at my old branch…even though they both belong to the exact same company
- A new neighbor complained that our shower made too much noise. She informed me that she heard it at the ungodly hour of 8:30 a.m., and didn't I know people were sleeping?!
- Another neighbor heard me speak one sentence in Spanish and demanded (in what I perceive as a demeaning tone) to know where I am from
I grumbled about all this to Andres on our first night, when I was still overwhelmed by the newness of it all—"This neighborhood has no character!" He paused for a moment, then insisted, "It does have character, just not one you like."
Wide-open streets, oh my!
Bouncing from lively Malasaña to muted Prosperidad was like night and day. In contrast to the youthful scene I was used to, at the bank, at the grocery store, at the frutería, I would be the youngest by not one, but two generations. At all of these same places, little old ladies would badger me, or, even worse, simply cut in line. I hated it when they plowed into me; this would never happen in Malasaña, where the only road risk was being run over by a hipster.
You know you live in an old-school barrio when….
We did our best to search out interesting places in the new neighborhood. When a friend told us he had lived in the barrio, I was immediately on the edge of my seat, breathlessly asking, "Where are some cool places to go?" I imagined he would offer up little-known gems tucked away on tiny streets. To my astonishment–and obvious disappointment–he proclaimed our own street was the place to be.
Uncomfortable with my crestfallen look, the friend quickly added, "Well, in the summer the street fills up with terrazas, and people are all outside eating, drinking, and enjoying the sun." I made a mental note to check back and see if that was actually true.
Even though summery terraza weather is yet to hit, I am enjoying the positive aspects the barrio has to offer—wide-open streets, two parks within walking distance, cheap(er) restaurants, a relative quietness, and, above all, a cozy apartment with central heating.
It also brought something I didn't realize I needed until I got it—change. Moving to a new neighborhood shakes up your routine, introduces you to new people and places, and transports you out of your comfort zone. It made me reevaluate my time in Madrid by making me think about the places and details I love about the city. I wouldn't say I appreciate the center more, exactly, but it has given me another perspective. At the same time, I can be more honest with myself about the downsides of living in the center, and stop holding my breath about the things that drove me nuts.
The Torres Blancas
Equally as important, the move reminded me of how much there still is to explore. If we hadn't moved here, I wouldn't have discovered the Torres Blancas building with its funky architecture, the awesome Thai restaurant on our doorstep, or the personajillo who lays a blanket out on the sidewalk everyday and hawks a changing assortment of books. I can't help but wonder–What else is waiting to be discovered?
Can you share an experience moving within your own city? Do you have any advice for moving to a new place?

Hi! This is way off of what I usually write about. But, I love DIYs. And, many have asked how we painted and striped our basketball court. So, I thought I would share some pictures and instructions.
It's a dream come true to have this in our backyard!
In 2005 when we moved into our South Carolina home, we were super excited to have this 30′ x 30′ basketball court in our backyard. But, we did nothing with it…for 10 YEARS! Last spring (2016), we caught the vision and had the gumption and went to work.
I did a lot of pinterest-ing and google researching for the colors, design, and any help in this undertaking. I found a minimal amount. Some. But, not a lot. So, I hope this will help you if you are interested in tackling this project on your own.
DIY Outdoor Basketball Court
1. Pour your cement pad. We already had a 30′ x 30′ cement pad from the previous owners (thank you!). But, I saw a lot of how-to sites online if you want to pour one yourself.
2. Pressure wash it well. We rented a pressure washer for 4 hours from our local equipment rental store.
3. Fill in any cracks. This was really, really hard. I used this brand that I found at Home Depot. It was a bit testy. I don't think I used the correct water/mixture ratio. It was too runny and didn't cover the cracks very well. Also, the texture of the crack filler was different from the cement. Once it was patched and painted, you could tell. Looking back, I don't know if I would bother filling in the cracks if we had to do it again.
4. Paint the court. We went to our Sherwin Williams store (the best) and asked them for what product to use. They recommended using the product below and it worked great!
We customized the blue paint to this tint. And, the green was in the pretinted can (I think it was tennis court green).
I think we used 8 gallons of blue and 3 gallons of green. We painted 3 coats, each rolling in a different direction. It was stinky and difficult and exhausting. Whew!
5. Update basketball hoop. You may not need to do this but we sure did. We ordered a 54″ basketball hoop that fit our existing pole system. It was easy to install. We also freshened up the pole with a shiny new coat of black paint.
6. Paint the court box a coordinating color. We bought a stencil for the lines of the court box and the 3-point line. It made the job SOOOOO much easier. In order to paint the correct area for the court box, we had to lay it out…
…and mark with chalk.
7. Create and paint a Michael Jordan logo (optional). I also wanted a fun Michael Jordan logo in the center. So I found this Jumpman logo, traced it onto posterboard using an overhead projector (I know, so old school), cut it out, taped it to where I wanted it within the court box…
…and painted the green over it – so when it was lifted, MJ would remain blue.
8. Paint the lines. We laid out the stencil according to the directions in the kit and spray painted. I had to purchase about 3 more cans of spray paint at Home Depot (the kit included 2), because I wanted a really solid line.
9. Then, we played some hoops! We love how it turned out!
I hope this helps. If you have any questions, comment below. Thanks!

What is an the Working of an Electromagnet
It is a magnet that gets its power because of electricity. The electricity can generate from the direct current or the battery and it needs to be transferred to a metal that has some magnetic power just like iron. Iron itself has some magnetic properties of its own which are not visible in general condition. This is because the small magnets in the iron bar stays in random direction and they cancel the magnetic fields of each other. But when current in penetrated in the iron through another magnetic field, then the random magnets align in a single direction. It creates a magnetic field that is quite powerful and we have our Electromagnetelectromagnets.
Electromagnets can be of different size and power and they are used according to their specifications. It is basically a coil of copper wire with iron in its core. The magnetic field is dependent on the iron used in it and the power that passes through it. It is relatively easy to make it but there are proper guidance needed if you need to change the power. This is used in most of the electrical and electronic device like motors, generators, television, MRI machines, computer hard disks and many more. The magnetic field is created when it comes to the contact of electricity. The easiest example is the door bell. When you press the bell the small electromagnet in it pulls a metal clapper which is responsible for the ringing of the bell. As the pressure is taken away the connection gets disrupted.
There are many companies making customized Electromagnetelectromagnets which are used in different machinery. Many of them sale them wholesale. While making a selection it is important that you get a proper idea about the material used in it and the power of the magnet in question.

LAST Tuesday evening saw the Bann Wheelers 25 Mile Time Trial Club Championship race held on the challenging Ballybogey-Coleraine course.
Whilst this is not the fastest course for such an event it did not stop the big guns from turning out for an opportunity to be crowned club champion.
Weather conditions and holiday traffic threatened to spoil fast times on the night. Undeterred, all of the competitors were eager to be tested. Fastest man on the night was John Madden (Bann Wheelers/Curran Racing), riding in Bann Wheelers colours, setting a new course record of 54:21.
Defending champion, Sean Kealey, retained his title, recording a time of 56:11.
Sean was followed by veteran tester Dominic Drumm (57:55), Carl Russell (58:22), Sharman Crawford (58:41), Derek McMenemy (58:42), Damian Hazlett (1:02:08), Brandon Herald – U14 (1:12:28) and Sam Greer (1:12:36).
Brandon's time is impressive as he races in the Under 14 category. Brandon is also the grandson of club stalwart Sam Greer although all family loyalties were temporarily put to one side as the two battled it out on the course.
Bann Wheelers would like to offer a special thanks to Ian Nevin who performed time keeping duties on the night.
Bann Wheelers race success
Bann Wheelers members have been in action at several Open races over the last few weeks.
Veteran time trial expert Dominic Drumm recorded a prsonal est time of 56:07 for a 25-,mile Time Trial on the Wood Green course in Ballymena.
At the same event, the ever improving Derek McMenemy also recorded a PB of:43. This race was part of the Cycling Ulster 25 Mile Time Trial League.
The recent Ras Loughguile, hosted by Ballymoney CC, saw further success for Ronnie Kidd and Andrew Torrens who finished in second and fourth place respectively in what is a very tough race. Bann Wheelers would like to congratulate Ballymoney CC on the success of the weekend of racing they organised for Ras Loughguile.
Causeway Cycle Challenge
Bann Wheelers would like to remind everyone that there is now only a fortnight until the 3rd annual Causeway Cycle Challenge takes place on a fantastic tour of our beautiful Causeway Coast
This charity cycle, held on Sunday, July 31, is available to both leisure and competitive cyclists with two routes available. Both routes start and finish at Coleraine Rugby Club and take in the picturesque seaside towns of Bushmills, Portrush and Portstewart.
The longer route also includes Ballycastle and Ballintoy. All entrants will receive a commemorative t-shirt with refreshments provided both along the route and at the finish.
All proceeds go to two local charities, Macmillan Cancer Support and Blind Centre for Northern Ireland. Entrants are encouraged to register on-line at www.bannwheelers.com, although entries will be welcome on the day of the event.

Just a few minutes ago, in the visitor's bullpen at Turner Field, Cliff Lee took a significant step toward returning to action. He threw 20 fastballs, maximum effort, off a mound, his first such work since landing on the disabled list with a strained flexor tendon a month ago.
Lee shrugged his shoulders after the bullpen session when asked what his next step is.
"We'll know a lot more tomorrow when I see how it feels," he said.
Lee isn't ruling out a return to the active roster before the All-Star Break, although that might be a bit optimistic. A perfect progression would likely have Lee throw a longer bullpen in a couple of days, and another one two or three days after that. Factor in a couple of rehab appearances, and you are already into the first week of July. And that's an extremely optimistic progression.
Lee said his elbow feels good and is pain-free, although he acknowledged that he can still "tell something is there." Expect the Phillies to err on the side of caution with their veteran lefthander, who likely won't have enough time to prove his health and effectiveness to teams who might be interested in trading for him ahead of the July 31 nonwaiver trade deadline.

Postcard from Memorial Day Weekend
Last weekend marked the unofficial start to summer, and honestly, it was one of my favorite weekends in the city to date. Maybe we've just been cooped up for too long–and to be fair, I've spent just about every weekend in the yoga studio since March–but the sun started shining on Sunday and everyone was just READY to enjoy it. I had the opportunity to catch up with some of my favorite people over beers and BBQ, ride bikes all over Brooklyn and just RELAX in the sunshine. It was fantastic–and it made me SO excited to be spending another summer in the city!
On our list to complete this summer: Yankees game (and maybe the Mets too!), a boat ride on the river, lots and lots of beach days, as many restaurants and bars with back gardens/terraces/patios as we can find, rowing boats in Central Park, a bike ride up to the Cloisters, the Central Park Zoo, and pretty much as much outdoor time as possible. Here's a little glimpse into how I spent the summer kickoff:
This was the Saturday morning that I have dreamed of while I have been cooped up in a yoga teacher training over the last few months: I went to my favorite yoga class (and simply enjoyed it, instead of trying to remember the sequence or observe the teacher or overanalyze the poses), grabbed a green juice at Mr. Pina (best juice value in Brooklyn!) and got a mani/pedi with a friend. Then I went to Smorgasburg with a friend for my favorite spicy tuna tacos and passionfruit agua vida before grabbing a beer with my favorite Williamsburg ladies in the Sweetwater back garden. We hung out and chatted for most of the afternoon before I met up with my boyfriend, his sister and her boyfriend for more outdoor beers and tacos at Crown Vic.
To shake off the beers of the day before, I went on a nice solo bike ride around Prospect Park in the morning. It was the first time in 2014 that I've gone on a fun bike ride–as opposed to running errands or commuting to work–and the weather was PERFECT for it. I threw on a crop top and an upbeat playlist, and got plenty of sunshine as I biked along the waterfront and then around the Prospect Park pond. Then we headed over to our friends' amazing terrace for a BBQ: I swear, no one makes better homemade salsa than Emilie! We capped off the night with a walk along the water and watching Prisoners on the couch: honestly, I thought it was absolutely terrifying (aka not sure if I'd recommend), but if you're into thrillers, it is a gripping one.
I loved my bike ride so much on Sunday that I decided to hop back on! I biked down to the Brooklyn Heights Promenade for one of my favorite views of Manhattan. Even though it was crazy crowded along the waterfront, it was still a gorgeous day to be outside. My boyfriend and I headed up for Central Park for a nice little wander through the park and dinner at the Boat Basin with his parents. Such a fun little spot–and SO nice to finally have the weather to be outside! Now that I work in SoHo, I kind of forgot how much I love Midtown: when you're staying in Times Square (like with a My Holiday Centre package!), you're so close to adventures in Central Park, the New York Public Library, Grand Central Station, Top of the Rock and the Empire State Building. It all has such a NEW YORK! feel to it–I'm looking forward to exploring more this summer.
What did you get up to over the long weekend? What are your plans for summer (or winter, if you're down under)?

A pie for six.
A staple of kitchens in Atlantic Canada, the term itself is derived from the name of the extinct carrier pigeon that originally formed the basis for its filling. It is a simple pie of ground meat and mashed potato, usually seasoned with mixed ground spice--allspice, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, mace and even, unusually, coriander--enveloped in shortcrust. No longer a regular presence on Canadian tables, tourtiere makes its appearance on special occasions and retains a particular association with Reveillon.
- enough pastry for 2 nine inch piecrusts
- 2 Tablespoons lard (preferred) or neutral oil
- 2 lb ground pork ( but see the Notes)
- about 1 ½ cups chopped onion
- ½ teaspoon allspice
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon mace
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder (Colman's is good)
- about 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander (optional)
- 2 oz cider vinegar
- about 1 ½ cups pork (preferred) or beef stock
- 1 cup cooked mashed potatoes
- salt and pepper
- 3 Tablespoons chopped parsley
- a beaten egg
- Melt the lard or heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium high heat, stir in the pork and onion, and fry until some of the pork begins to brown; scrape any debris from the bottom of the skillet.
- Stir in the spices, Worcestershire and vinegar.
- Add the stock, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook uncovered until you have a slurry.
Preheat the oven to 375°.
- Stir the mashed potatoes and parsley into the slurry, then supply the amount of salt and pepper you consider appropriate.
- Line a 9 inch pie pan with half of the pastry and spoon the filling into the pan. Top the pie with the second half of the pastry, vent it with a hole in the center or with some slashes and then paint the pie with the beaten egg.
- Bake the tourtiere until the topcrust turns a deep gold, usually about 30-40 minutes.
- Tourtiere provokes no small amount of controversy among New Englanders of French Canadian descent and a certain age. The Editor has witnessed spirited arguments over the pie's authentic ingredients. Some insist that their mothers used only pork; others recall a combination of pork and beef; and lamb, veal and even venison also fill the pie in various combinations. The use of mixed spice, particularly clove, would appear essential, although Roy omits it from his recipe in From Pemmican to Poutine.
- Then again Roy's version strikes the Editor as untraditional, not to say inauthentic or anachronistic, in its use of rosemary, balsamic vinegar and red wine. The balsamic would have been unknown to Atlantic Canada as late as the late twentieth century, but tourtiere probably dates to the seventeenth and certainly had appeared at table by the eighteenth. The use of red wine to cook would have been an unthinkable luxury, and the flavor of rosemary is just wrong. Roy also uses grated rather than mashed potato, standard technique for rappie pie but an innovation that we have not encountered elsewhere for tourtiere.
- Some cooks use cooked diced potato instead of mash.
- According to Roy (the only source of this oaten version; he supplies no citation), Scots Canadians sometimes used oats instead of potatoes to thicken their tourtieres, and their descendants still do so in parts of Quebec. If you would like to try oats in your tourtiere, use only about half a cup of oatmeal instead of the cup of potato; it swells. Add the oatmeal to the seasoned meat and onion mixture with an additional half a cup of stock at Step 3. Whether or not it will be tourtiere, it will make a good pie.
- An utterly authentic recipe appears in a manuscript in the Editor's possession complied by, the lovely late Massachusetts matriarch of the Giguere clan who bore twelve children, seasons the tourtiere exclusively with a teaspoon of ground clove and, of course, a generous jolt of salt and pepper.
- Some recipes add chopped celery, and although we consider it a bedrock ingredient, do not believe it fits the flavor palette of tourtiere. If you disagree, add about ¾ cup at Step 1.
- Others add a bay leaf to the meat and onions at Step 1: We often throw two into the skillet. Remove them before Step 4.
- McQuade's Marketplace, with stores in Mystic, Connecticut and Westerly, Rhode Island, makes its own tourtiere with a combination of beef and pork. They sell it as a prosaic 'Canadian meat pie,' but a rose by any other name…. Their version uses a mixture of beef and pork, and is unusual in spicing the pie with mustard and Worcestershire as well as the traditional clove and nutmeg. We like the additions and have adopted them. The McQuade pies are more than serviceable; reasonably good value for money too after a busy winter's day.
- Tourtiere is particularly appealing because the only accompaniment you need is a simple green salad.
- We like some robust English mustard with our tourtiere and some sources say it is traditional to serve a relish on the side. Most traditional Quebecoise relishes resemble the stuff you get in jars to smear on hot dogs, and indeed they do complement tourtiere. We like Heinz India relish, a little less sweet than most commercial versions. B&G India relish is not bad either. In a pinch any brand of cucumber relish would do.

My girls love the Tinker Bell movies, so when I heard there was a new one coming out--I knew we had to see it! This time around Walt Disney Studios will be showing off Tinker Bell through the first time on Disney Blu-ray 3D with "Secret of the Wings."
For Tinker Bell and the other warm season fairies, the Winter Woods remains a mysterious and forbidden place. "Secret of the Wings" takes audiences on an amazing journey of discovery with Tink, into this forbidden world where she discovers a magical secret that changes her life forever.
My kids and I had the opportunity to review this movie. I honestly think it is one of the best movies from the Tinker Bell/Fairy franchise yet. It was adorable and had lots of great valuable messages within the story line. My kids love that Tink has a sister and really enjoyed watching them bond and work together to solve problems. There was lots of fun and laughter throughout the movie and after it was over, we all didn't want it to end!
This has definitely become one of my kids' current movie faves and something you will not want to miss! The winter theme also makes it a perfect gift for the holiday season!
Check the shelves for Disney's Secret of the Wings, available in stores NOW!
A big THANK YOU to Walt Disney Pictures for providing me with a free Secret of the Wings movie to review. I was not compensated for this review. I receive product(s) for free so that I can provide my insight and experience. These are my honest opinions. Your experience may vary.

There's not a whole lot of difference between the first and second place softball teams in the Pacific Coast League.
That was pretty clear Tuesday as Woodbridge moved into a tie for second place with a 12-4 victory over league-leader Irvine.
Irvine will be in pretty good shape to win the crown if it can defeat Beckman today. It wraps up the regular season next week against University and Corona del Mar.
Northwood and Woodbridge play tonight at approximately 5 p.m. at Bill Barber Park. The two teams are tied for second place.
"They're a lot better now," Woodbridge Coach Jerry Rose said of his team's playoff chances. "This puts us on even par with Northwood and we have them Thursday, so we're kind of in control of our destiny. Stranger things can happen, Beckman could beat Irvine."
Exciting baseball race
The PCL baseball race is also down to the wire with Beckman leading the league and Woodbridge in second. Beckman plays at third place Corona del Mar Friday and Woodbridge hosts Irvine today at 3:30 p.m. at Ryan Lemmon Stadium (originally scheduled for Friday).
Beckman and Woodbridge play Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. at Ryan Lemmon Stadium and a league title could be on the line if both teams win Friday.
Woodbridge finishes league play at University and Beckman plays at Northwood on May 12.
New co-ad at Northwood
Brandon Emery, head girls and boys volleyball coach, has been named co-athletic director at Northwood, according to Athletic Director Phil Roh.
Emery will replace Zeff Dena, who is moving on to become activities director at the school.
"Moving forward, we thought it best to go with a co-athletics director model in part to ensure that all sports are receiving the support necessary to provide positive experiences for our student athletes," said Roh, who is also the football coach.
"(Brandon is) selfless, energetic and organized. He's proven himself to be team-first and we are blessed to have him. We will be splitting responsibilities for the sports between us, so for example, he'll be the athletic director for football and I'll be the AD for volleyball, which simply means we have the power to let the other one go."
Mother's Day Sunday
Most important, we want to wish a Happy Mother's Day to all the great moms out there. They impact our lives and are on our side, win, lose or draw. So make sure and make their day special!
