Stephanie Hales hopes you will go out and do something nice for others Sept. 15.
Just pick something, big or small.
She plans to pick up litter on the beach in San Clemente, part of California's annual Coastal Cleanup Day.
Only she isn't calling it Coastal Cleanup Day. She's calling it the Chase Hales Family Day of Giving.
The Hales family – Stephanie, her husband, Sloan, and their children, Chantal, 17, Jocelyn, 14, and Chase, 10 – have set up a Facebook page titled "The Chase Hales Family Day of Giving" in hopes that it will become an annual occurrence, a day for people to count their blessings and give back.
The Hales' blessing is that Chase is alive. One night in 2006, the family came so close to losing the then-5-year-old to a lemon-size, undiagnosed brain tumor that doctors said he could have stopped breathing in his sleep that night and the Hales never would have known what hit them.
Instead, doctors at Children's Hospital of Orange County did emergency surgery to relieve pressure on Chase's spinal cord, then surgery to remove the cancerous tumor. Chase underwent chemotherapy, has been in remission since 2008 and is a lively, healthy kid, apart from needing growth hormone, the family says.
"We are so lucky to have him," said his sister Chantal.
"I feel like we dodged a bullet," said their mother, Stephanie.
As a prelude to Sept. 15, the Hales family put together a gift for Chase's school, Marblehead Elementary in San Clemente. In recent days, Chantal Hales has led a family project to restore a map of the United States on the school's blacktop.
Jeremy Fleischman painted the map in 2004 as his Eagle Scout project for Troop 737. It had since become seriously weathered. Fleishman went on to graduate from San Clemente High School and UC Berkeley. His mother, Mary, teaches at Marblehead Elementary and was Chase's kindergarten teacher the year he got sick.
Students arriving for classes Wednesday on the first day of the new school year were greeted with a multicolored map that looks like new.
"I went to this school and I think it's a cool idea to leave this map behind," Chantal Hales said.
The restored map features states big enough for kids to hopscotch from one to the next. Stephanie Hales said she hopes teachers at Marblehead will use it for the States Race, in which classrooms compete to see who can place the correct names on the states the quickest.
"Kinda cool," said Chase, who doesn't remember his dark days in 2006.
The Day of Giving Facebook page contains links to nonprofits such as Family Assistance Ministries, the Joyful Foundation and the Orange County Foundation for Oncology, Children and Families. The latter stepped up and provided moral support from the family's first tense moments at CHOC Children's and St. Joseph Hospital, Stephanie Hales said. The organization continues to host Chase and his siblings yearly at three-day campouts at Camp Oaks, near Big Bear Lake.
Stephanie Hales said the Facebook page could be a legacy for Chase, nudging others to appreciate what they have and to help others, sort of like Chase did by painting state boundaries on the blacktop map at Marblehead Elementary.
"I don't think he realizes how big a deal this is right now," Chantal Hales said after a work session on the map. "But I think definitely down the road, he's going to maybe bring his friends here one day and be like, 'Hey, look! I did this with my family!' It's cool."

Less a sports movie and more a tale about segregation, "42" is an emotional and well acted portrait of Hall of Fame player Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman, "The Kill Hole") and his first two years in the MLB. Baseball fans will go crazy for this movie, while the rest of the audience will enjoy a well-acted and scripted portrait of the 1940s post World War. If you are a fan of the sport, or just a fan of Robinson, go see the movie. Otherwise, you might want to think it over.
Written and directed by Brian Helgeland, the story picks up right after World War II and we are introduced to a country in a period of both peace and war. The economy is booming and with it baseball, the military is returning home and the nation is moving into a time of peace and prosperity. With all this going on, Jim Crow laws are still heavy in force, segregating the different races and creating a nation that is separate but not equal.
Brooklyn Dodgers executive Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford, "Cowboys and Aliens") is introduced to the story while discussing the idea of signing the first African-American baseball player. Currently there are minority leagues, and college baseball is interested, but the major leagues are made up of only white players. Rickey wants to capture the minority markets by giving them an African-American player so within the first couple of minutes it is decided that Robinson will be that player.
Met with much skepticism from his assistants and Robinson himself, Rickey moves forward and proves throughout the movie that one man can make a difference. As much as Robinson is an American hero, Rickey is the man that made all this change happens and equally deserved his place in the Hall of Fame. Rickey and all of his assistants do a fantastic job throughout the movie making this time period come alive, and a great job of showing how Robinson changed the minds of people that doubted his place in the League.
Boseman gave a phenomenal performance in the role of Robinson; no one else could have portrayed the hero better. Throughout the movie, Boseman expresses the appropriate amount of pride and carefree attitude, while always having a defensive and angry being just underneath the surface. The movie takes us through times where Robinson is attacked by teammates, coaches, fans, police and other players but continues to rise to the occasion.
The movie moves slowly at first, and Robinson seems to breeze through the minor leagues without many incidents of racial segregation, but picks up as he joins the Dodgers. With the club, Robinson goes against his own teammates as well as the opposing team, who go as far as to physically attack the athlete. From friend to foe, Robinson slowly turns heads though and proves he should be in the League.
The movie is somewhat repetitive in the fact that Robinson again and again faces the same kind of racial discrimination and segregation, and he continues to rise to the occasion and conquer the challenge. At points the movie feels slow, but it is an emotional and raw picture that pulls the viewer in. A highlight throughout the movie is the acting.
The supporting cast was phenomenal throughout the whole movie, from the racist teammates that were slowly won over to the offensive managers. This movie felt real and never over-the-top. The movie shows the early movement, which led to full integration, but it does a good job by just taking one season as a Dodger to show how he changed the league for better.
From beginning to end "42" succeeds on many levels, in particular acting and the ability to recreate the time period. The movie at times seems slow and the conflicts somewhat repetitive, but the great acting keeps the movie moving and provides a couple of both emotionally compelling and laugh-out-loud moments. Fans of the sport should see this movie, but if you do not care about this time period or what the American hero went through, you may be disappointed.

-- Argus II Can Now Be Covered in Seven of 12 Medicare Administrative
Contractor Jurisdictions, representing a total of 28 states, two
territories, and the
The MAC for jurisdictions JH and JL,
By allowing Medicare coverage for Argus II,
Second Sight continues to work with other MACs and payers to secure affirmative coverage policies for the Argus II and to ensure that Medicare beneficiaries nationwide have access to this revolutionary technology.
About the Argus II Retinal Prosthesis System
Second Sight's Argus II System provides electrical stimulation that
bypasses the defunct retinal cells and stimulates remaining viable cells
inducing visual perception in individuals with severe to profound
Retinitis Pigmentosa. The Argus II works by converting images captured
by a miniature video camera mounted on the patient's glasses into a
series of small electrical pulses, which are transmitted wirelessly to
an array of electrodes implanted on the surface of the retina. These
pulses stimulate the retina's remaining cells, intending to result in
the perception of patterns of light in the brain. The patient must learn
to interpret these visual patterns, having the potential to regain some
visual function. The Argus II was the first artificial retina to receive
widespread approval, and is offered at approved centers in
About Second Sight
Second Sight's mission is to develop, manufacture and market innovative
implantable visual prosthetics to enable blind individuals to achieve
greater independence. Second Sight has developed and manufactures the
Argus® II Retinal Prosthesis System. Second Sight is currently
conducting a trial to test the safety and utility of the Argus II in
individuals with Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration. Second Sight is
also developing the Orion™ I Visual Cortical Prosthesis that is intended
to restore some vision to individuals who are blind due to many causes
other than preventable or treatable conditions.

The Holodomor - Genocide Against the Ukrainian Nation in the Context of World Genocides
Wednesday, April 19th, 2017
|Wednesday, April 19, 2017
|108N, North House, 1 Devonshire Place
Although comparative genocide as the second generation of genocide studies has developed over the past two decades, the Holodomor as a crime of genocide committed by Stalin's regime has not been examined in comparative perspective. In her presentation, Dr. Myroslava Antonovych will trace the reasons for this situation and will offer a comparative analysis of the Holodomor with examples of genocide in the first half of the XX century–namely, the Armenian genocide of the Ottoman Empire and the Holocaust of Nazi Germany. The speaker will compare the three genocides as crimes under international law in terms of the mental (mens rea) and material (actus reus) elements of genocide that characterize each of them, noting the dissimilarities and similarities in intent, the perspectives of the victims and perpetrators, and the acts perpetrated. The key common element in the genocides perpetrated in the Ottoman Empire, the Soviet Union, and the Third Reich is that state organization was substituted by hegemony of a ruling party: the Ittihadists, the Communists, and the Nazis. The importance of comparing cases of genocide is evident – if lessons from the past are not heeded and genocide is not punished, history will repeat itself as can be seen in the east and south (Crimea) of Ukraine, where the successor state to the Soviet Union – the Russian Federation – continues an attack on the Ukrainian nation.
Dr. Myroslava Antonovych is the Director of the Centre for International Human Rights and Associate Professor of the Faculty of Law, University of "Kyiv-Mohyla Academy", Kyiv, Ukraine. In 2010-2014 she was a Judge ad Hoc at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg. She graduated from the Faculty of Law, Lviv National University (1995) and from the English Department, Dnipropetrovsk National University in Ukraine (1981) with honors. She has LL.M. degree from McGill University in Montreal, Canada (1999). Her Doctor of Law degree is from the Ukrainian Free University in Munich, Germany (2008) and Candidate of Philology degree is from Kyiv Linguistic University in Ukraine (1988). As a Fulbright scholar she conducted research on International Human Rights at the Urban and Morgan Institute for Human Rights, University of Cincinnati, Ohio, USA (1996). She is the author of about 100 books and articles in Ukraine and abroad. Her research focuses on International Human Rights and Genocide Studies. In April-May 2017, Dr. Antonovych will be the visiting professor at the Petro Jacyk Program for the Study of Ukraine and the Holodomor Education and Research Consortium

Unclog Exterior Home Drains
Portland OR – Gresham Oregon – Vancouver WA & Surrounding Areas
Your exterior home drains are extremely valuable and are responsible for providing an important preventative service for your property in Gresham, OR.

Prevention is the backbone to keeping your home free of water damage so it is in your best interest to keep all outdoor drains meticulously maintained. Keeping exterior home drains clog free protects your home, and also protects the integrity of the drains too. Knowing the evolving condition of your drains will also provide insight into other potential issues such as tree root growth, rust, and other issues that will require future planning to alleviate.

Kitengela crusher owner stalls cement factory building on electionTuesday, October 31, 2017 19:32
Athi River-based cement-maker Karsan Ramji and Sons has stalled plans to complete a Sh428 million mini-cement plant in Athi River citing political tensions.
Managing director Kishon Varsani said the prevailing political environment had forced the Ndovu brand firm to halt all construction work awaiting conclusion of the presidential election race.
"Everything is on hold at the moment due to lack of proper working days and too many holidays," he said in allusion to the two-day holiday declared by acting Interior secretary Fred Matiang'i last week to facilitate the repeat presidential election.
The Kitengela crusher owners' sentiments on political uncertainty reflect those of the Kenya Private Sector Alliance (Kepsa), which said investments worth Sh100 billion had been deferred pending return to normalcy.
In its overview report on the electioneering process and its impact on the business environment and the national economy, Kepsa said the past four months had seen Kenya lose over Sh700 billion.
"The Nairobi Securities Exchange market capitalisation lost Sh240 billion with foreign investors shipping out Sh15 billion while loss of opportunities for local firms amounted to Sh250 billion and investments worth Sh100 billion were on hold," said Kepsa.
Karsan Ramji & Sons is putting up a 700-tonne per day grinding plant in Athi River where it will import clinker while sourcing pozzolana and gypsum raw materials from its quarries in Kajiado and Kilifi.

latest (political correctness ?) move by Yahoo
Apparently now you cannot sign up for a Yahoo email account if your username contains "allah" in it.
My sister's friend tried it...his last name is cALLAHan...wasn't able to get a user ID with his last name. out of curiosity i tried it too, and only if you misspell it, can you use it.
now i'm not anti-Islam or anything...but isnt this a bit much???
they're trying to not offend people for fear of suicide bombings at the yahoo headquarters.
can't blame a company for that.
yahoo has a lot of "reserved words" that cannot be used in email addresses. no big deal.
actually, i'd have to say its a smart move on their part... even a little proactive.
ok but...shouldnt they have it programmed that words, names like Callahan are valid and dont get filtered out? i dont know, i think that's too much...
like after sept 11 that muslim guy in t.o whose personal license plate "JIHAD" was revoked bc of being offensive...when really it was his last name.
it seems like too much of ass-kissing of the masses to me.
*shrugs* ... if some people find certain words rude, sexist, racist, or just offensive, they're going to do something to help resolve the conflict. his real last name may be JIHAD, but other motorists don't know that---and many will jump to conclusions.
As for words like Callahan being valid, they don't add this into the filter. It's a wildcard filter they add on to reserved words, so bad****word would be filtered as well since it has a swear word in it.
Just trying to resolve conflict really.
If I saw Jihad on some dudes plates Id think hes actualyl starting a Jihad and Id be very scared.
also these words are banned for simple reasons... for instance...
a person who hates mulsim religion or any religion for that matter

Questions About Therapy
How long is a typical session and how many times a week should I see a therapist?
Sessions are usually 50 minutes. Most clients are seen once or twice a week in the beginning and as time goes on less frequently. The number of sessions depends on what your current needs are. Together we will develop a plan that works for you while allowing you to keep important life obligations. This can be discussed during your initial session.
How long should I be in therapy?
The length of time a client is in therapy largely depends the nature of the problem and the identified goals. Some clients have a very specific problem that can be worked through in a course of brief therapy. Other individuals see therapy as an on-going learning process and choose to be involved in therapy for a longer period.
Do you have a particular theoretical approach to counseling?
Our approach is eclectic, however some of our counselors lean more towards various counseling approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or through Mindfulness. Because we believe therapy does not stop once you leave the office, we may provide you a homework assignment to encourage insight and growth.
Are counseling sessions confidential?
Your counseling sessions will be confidential within the confines of the law. Confidentiality is a critical part of the therapeutic process. In order to make the most progress possible, it is essential that you can trust your therapist and feel comfortable in freely talking about the most intimate and personal parts of your life, without concern that those details will be revealed to anyone else. The law in Illinois provides that the rule of confidentiality can only be broken in the most extreme circumstances, e.g. if a person is currently involved in acts of child abuse, if you are clearly likely to cause bodily harm to yourself or others, or if you waive in writing your right to confidentiality. During our initial session, you will be provided specifics information about confidentiality in what is commonly referred to as an Informed Consent Form. You will also be provided information regarding the Health Insurance Portability Act (HIPAA).

text: Okay, so I recently installed CM7 on my Nook Color, using the uSD card method. 1.) Is it okay to re-insert my SD loaded with all the CM7 files using the Stock Firmware? 2.) Using the CM7 firmware, I used a USB cable to connect it to a computer to charge, but it was not. What is the problem here? 3.) What is the best replacement launcher for the CM7 preloaded with ADW Launcher? I'm not really a fan of ADW. 4.) In Minecraft Pocket Edition, is it possible to use a Wii Remote or PS3 Controller to use it for hardware controls instead of the touch screen? I might have more questions later, but this is all i have at the moment. Thanks in advance!

Magic Lottery Dildo!
Man, do Iowans know how to tell a story. In short: gag gift dildo abandoned on move-out, guy tries to return it but stops for car repair, realizing mechanic might think it funny to have huge dildo in car, guy goes to get cash to pay mechanic without revealing identity, BAM, buys the winning lottery ticket after stopping at gas station ATM. The Magic Lottery Dildo claims another victim. What he doesn't realize is that the curse of the Magic Lottery Dildo is that it can only be spent on hookers, or your penis falls off.

"This is a heartwarming story that was written from the heart. It brought real meaning to me––of some things in life––that never made sense before. It made me smile, and also brought tears to my eyes. This is a must read. I wasn't able to put it down once I started."
"A compelling story that will have readers touched and unable to put it down. I've read it more than once and each and every time it brings tears to my eyes."
"WOW! It is not an easy book to read, but it is a powerful book. Heartbreaking, heartwarming, challenging and uplifting."
***Amazon Reviews***
Wells is a gifted writer with a voice you don't encounter often in self-published fiction. Her clear and compelling insight into pain and release bring the reader into a story that spins a message of faith, healing, and recovery, written from the perspective of a teenage girl and an author who has a genuine love for God and desire to witness. The evangelical message is strong here, imparting to the reader the imperative to seek God in the midst of trials as the only, and the ultimate, answer.
By Kim O'Hara on July 5, 2015 – 5 STARS
"If you're expecting, from the title, a story of a girl and her walk with God through a lovely Christian life, you will be surprised at the candor and realism within. Krystal hurts, down deep, and she meets others who have even more reasons to hurt. The reader gets a ringside seat to watch her very personal struggles. It could be a dark story, but instead, amid the rawness, there is hope throughout. Krystal comes to know the love that comes from a walk with God (no surprise, given the title), and her transition from lonely and anguished to a young woman who begins to heal and to reach out to others is gripping, memorable, and very believable. It has the kind of authenticity that made me think it could have been based on a true story. Indeed, perhaps it was."
By Linds McDonald on June 27, 2015 – 5 STARS
"Must-read book of the year!! Immediately pulls you in. The characters, pace, setting, and message of this story are all very well thought out and implemented. Krystal's story is raw and heartfelt and relatable. I read the whole thing in two days! Could not put it down. Highly recommended to everyone!! I loved all of the characters so much–trust me, you will too!"
By Amazon Customer on June 27, 2015 – 5 STARS
"This book is so powerful I chose to make it the subject of one of my blogs. I read a lot of books and don't usually blog about them but this book has such a tough subject matter, that is so sensitively handled, I wanted to share it with others. It is the story of a teenage girl whose parents are divorcing. It has been further complicated by her mother moving in with a new man. The way this young girl deals with the pain is through self harm. Joining a friend's family one evening, she ends up "volunteering" at a local shelter where she meets a broad spectrum of people. Her experiences at the shelter ultimately helps her deal with her addiction. This is not an easy read but it is powerful and full of hope – something we all need."
By Amazon Customer on July 12, 2015 – 5 STARS
"Wow! What a great story!! I love how clear the message is that God loves us and will meet us where we are, no matter how far down we've fallen! C. L. Wells is a gifted writer who told a story without it getting boring or preachy and I am waiting, not so patiently, for her next book to come out!!"
By Shelly Wright on June 22, 2015 – 5 STARS
"Krystal's story is a story that will inspire you. She has real-life struggles, family, self-destructive behavior, being a teenager in a troubled world, and most of all her relationship with God. Once you start reading this book, you won't be able to put it down. This book shows how God can save a broken girl and make her whole again. God is Good!"
"This is a well-done first novel about a teenage girl going through real-life struggles and dealing with self-destructive tendencies, whose views on life and God start to change when she volunteers at a local homeless shelter and begins to be impacted by the people there. It's realistically written, the characters are memorable and come across as if you're reading about real people, and although there are a few sad parts (I won't spoil anything), the story is largely heartwarming and about healing and redemption and leaves you with a good feeling when you've finished reading it, especially if you are a person of faith. The story tackles tough questions, such as why there is suffering in the world if there is a loving God, which is incidentally something I've spent a lot of time struggling with myself and doing a lot of studying over the years. I felt the questions and responses to them were dealt with very well in this book. The story also manages to respond to these subjects without being preachy or feeling like it has a sole agenda to convert its readers to religion. The love of God is simply shown through the characters, the conversations they have, and the way Krystal begins to change and see the world as the story progresses, which is the way stories like this (and all Christian fiction, really) should be written. All in all, this is a good first novel by an author with a promising future."

Toddler Snatched
February 7, 2008 permalink
A parent in Austin Texas posted a child protection story on the website of TV station KWTX. It is typical of the single mom case, with the twist that the parent here is a single father, Larry Lewis. Problems began when he took a photograph of himself shirtless holding his baby girl.
CPS Abuses of Power Harms Child
Reporter: Larry Lewis
Email Address: firstname.lastname@example.com
I have a story that is intriguing enough to be a movie. It involves CPS "Child Protective Services" and how they are in the business of ruining father's lives. I would have never believed it had I not be caught up in an investigation by them due to false allegations from a very disturbed woman with bipolar disorder. I simply did not want to date this woman, so she calls CPS and files false claims against me. This woman is currently being investigated for a homicide and there is another possible homicide in which she may be involved. Her father has been declared missing. She alleges that he molested her as a child. She indicates that they were on a scuba diving trip and he "never came back up". That might happen, but not that often and it seems suspicious if not scary to me. CPS cared nothing of that, they just sought to destroy me because they had an easy target — a father.
Oddly enough the allegation of inappropriate behavior on my part stems from a cherished photograph I keep on my refrigerator. It is of my and my little girl who was just a tiny infant at the time and was wearing her little onesie. The photo was of us two cheek to cheek smiling happily as I took the picture of us from above while our heads were on a pillow. I wasn't wearing a shirt. The very disturbed woman commented on how cute the photo was when she came into my house uninvited, but bearing gifts. I said, "Oh yeah, I sure miss when Alyssa was so little and used to fall asleep on my chest". Oh boy, CPS didn't like that, they would like to think they have a child molester on their hands. The woman and CPS have ruined my life in so many ways. If you read any of Stephen Baskerville books, you will find the horrors and atrocities that CPS (DCC in some states) is legally able to commit. They are extreme and very gestapo-like. There is nobody to watch over them and that is why I am coming to you. I have seen your very capable investigative reporters tackle some big entities and think that perhaps you would be a good person to look into my case and CPS in general. I realize that most media are on a very friendly basis with this business that alleges they are in business to protect kids, but if a station has guts to protect citizens against their kids being taken away unjustly, then I would commend them.
My accuser is a former paramedic (license revoked) who has a history of turning people into authorities whether it is CPS or the Police. She proudly tells of finding a car accident victim in the front seat and still breathing with his eyes open. She deemed him un-savable and thus covered his mouth so as to keep him from breathing. She feels quite justified in snuffing this poor soul's life out of him with not even giving the ER a shot at saving his life. She feels quite justified in ruining my life as well since she could not be the mother of my existing little girl. Get this, the woman had been pregnant at one point in her life and the baby was due on Nov. 2 which happens to be my little girl's birthday. She truly believed my daughter was her dead baby reincarnated.
I am not allowed visits with my daughter unless they are supervised and have had only short visits since this ludicrous non-sense began in November of 2007. How many more months must this go on before a very innocent little girl (she is four years old now) is reunited with her very innocent daddy?
There are many more mind-blowing aspects to this sad story in which I think would get a rise out of you viewers. We're looking at legalized kidnapping, a possible homicide and big-time corruption. If you are interested in discussing this possible story/investigation, please contact me. I would gladly help expose a very gender-biased organization into divulging the truths if it meant that they were put in their place and my daughter was finally returned to me. Oh yes, you'll be very perplexed at the fact that I am also banned by CPS for telling my little girl the story of Little Red Riding Hood.

Our selected team of reviewers recently had the priviledge to review two books, Entertain Like A Gentleman and Aurora Fee, thanks to New Year Publishing.
First off, Entertain Like A Gentleman, written by David Harap is one of those very much needed guidebook for men who are not as "talented" when it comes to entertaining and cooking. The book starts off with Entertaining 101 which includes a list of 25 things to do to ensure a stress free entertaining. For those who are totally clueless in the kitchen, the book also provides an explanation of the basic tools in the kitchen ranging from food processor to mixing bowls to measuring scale as well as metric conversions. Trust me, these morsels of information may be pretty useful to some.
As far as the recipes are concerned, I am ashamed to admit that I have so much to learn from David Harap. I like the way the recipes are divided into different occassions, for example, Super Bowl/March Madness, Cheese and Wine Party, Pool Party, Double Date Night, Romantic Dinner (Spring/Summer) and Romantic Dinner (Fall/Winter), etc. My favourite of course was Cooking With Kiddos, which I would never have expected to be included in this book. Overall, the recipes are not what you would call simple and neither are they intimidating. I'm just a bit surprise that there aren't any pictures to accompany the recipes which would have worked better.When it comes to recipes, I'm one who believes that a picture speaks a thousand words 😉 If your man is showing hints of interest in the kitchen, this might be just the book to get him started.
Here's what some of our reviewers thought of Entertain Like A Gentleman:
Confessions of an overworked mom – Now if your husband is like mine, you might expect this cookbook to be filled with recipes for buffalo wings, frozen pizza and chocolate chip cookies. You couldn't be more wrong! The recipes in this book are going to put your cooking skills to shame. At least they'd put mine to shame. Just thinking about dates stuffed with blue cheese mousse and fennel and spinach strudel has my mouth watering!
Pookie and The Boys – Most men wish they had the ability to cook for their woman and give her the wow factor. Entertain Like a Gentleman by David Harap tries to give a little boost in the kitchen department for men. The thing is to remember this is for a gentleman, not a man. There are no recipes including a bottle of beer, and some of the recipes require up to a week of prep. The recipes have easy to read measurements and it seems that most ingredient choices are conveniently found in your local grocery. Instructions are detailed letting you know the "do ahead" and the actual "night of the dinner" steps for preparation.
Mom Most Traveled – Entertain Like a Gentleman has 75 original recipes appropriate for all types of themes; from Super Bowl parties to Scotch tastings to intimate dinner parties.
Recipes in Entertain Like a Gentleman use common and accessible ingredients, and you also get tips about how to make your evening flow…like butter.
Heavenly Savings – The recipes by David Harap are not your basic everyday recipes. Each dish looks and smells appetizing and the taste is to die for! You will be wining and dining your guests in no time with these timeless romantic recipes! There are also parts of the book that will help you know how to organize and set up your foods in the most spectacular and passionate ways!
Adventure in All Things Food – Mmm… all delicious recipes, and easy to make. These simple, yet elegant ideas will have your guests singing your praises! Each chapter has a full menu of ideas, a shopping list and equipment list for each recipe. Some chapters even have added suggestions for making your gathering more enjoyable. This book helps to plan everything out for the host or hostess. I have to say that I am always looking for ways to make entertaining go more smoothly.
Renaissance Culinaire – The recipes are written in an easy to understand fashion, intended to help aid in a less-stressful entertaining experience. Included in the book are shopping and equipment lists, with blank pages after every section to allow you to jot down thoughts or notes – making Entertain Like a Gentleman perfect for the cooking inept or the seasoned culinary traveler.
Happy Healthy Families – I know this book is aimed towards men, and yes, it is perfect for the man who needs some step by step guidance in the kitchen, but really, I think just about anyone would love reading it. There are tips and secrets throughout the book that will make even the most novice host feel ready to take on a party for family and friends!
Acting Balanced – I really like how the recipes are laid out – with the instructions first and the ingredients and equipment listed down the right hand side, with the ingredients listed like a shopping list – ingredient first, amount second. The tips are great too – for men or women – and help you to break down your entertainment planning and cooking chores into easy to accomplish steps. This book is all about being impressive without being difficult.
Mom of 2 Dancers – There is no stronger way to impress someone than by showcasing your culinary skills. Bachelor Chef and culinary instructor David Harap has created a series of menus that any man can make his own. This book helps men create unforgettable meals for their guests without stress or needing years of cooking school. In addition to many exciting recipes for every occasion, that are tons of tips and secrets on how to become the ultimate host. Memorable meals made easy.
Aurora Fee was written by Megan Barnes when she was just a high school senior. It tells the story of an ordinary teenager with centuries old deep dark secret. The truth is, Aurora is no longer a human but a CAT to be exact. She could transform herself from a human into a cat, has the ability to read minds and is immortal. Aurora also has to be careful with her emotions which may result in different parts of her cat personality appearing out of the blue, such as happiness will trigger the appearance of the tail, embarrassment triggers the whiskers, etc.
Aurora Fee is definitely geared for the tweens to teens but as an adult, I did enjoy reading it too. The story involves typical teenage issues such as high school, cliques, jealousy and romance. Aurora Fee kind of reminds me of James Patterson's Daniel X. As far as paranormal fiction goes, I give it the thumbs up and will definitely be looking forward to a sequel.
Read what our reviewers had to say about the Aurora Fee below:
The Sewing Mom – While Aurora has to contend with her shape shifting, she also contends with typical teenage issues, school, friends, and even love. All of these things cause angst and can peak emotions particularly in a teenager, so it's even more of a challenge for someone who doesn't want their cat ears giving them away! As the parent of a teenager, I found it easy to relate to the teenage issues in the book. I found some of the story to be a bit far fetched and naive, but overall, it is a very enjoyable book. I am very impressed that the author, Megan Barnes, was just 17 when she wrote the story and had it published. On that alone I recommend the book! I admire anyone that follows their dreams, but to do so at such a young age is absolutely a triumph!
Creative Writings 101 – Aurora suffers from normal teen feelings, wanting to be loved, and of course, the fear of being different. Something we all can relate to in one way or another. I was surprised to see that the writer of this book is only a teen herself, I think she did a great job and had a great handle on the emotions and experiences that teens face on a daily basis. This is a good book for a tween and/or teen to read, and fits the young adult paranormal genre perfectly.
Adventure in All Things Food – This was a fast read, and I am sure as a teenager I would have consumed it in one sitting. At 240 pages it is not a long read, but a perfect serving of feline adventure. I enjoyed that it was a great mixture between usual teen conflicts, and life and death action. It is a great story I would recommend for tween through teen readers, especially girls interested in paranormal fiction.
Happy Healthy Families -My daughter loved this book, and basically had it in her hands from the time she started reading it to the time she finished. Though shape shifting is a big part of the story, it also follows Aurora's daily struggles being a teen and dealing with normal teen situations such as school, friends, falling in love, etc. This would be a perfect stocking stuffer for young teens and even pre-teens. My daughter gave it two thumbs up!
Acting Balanced – Aurora Fee is full of action and fun. The book is well written and I could possibly see a sequel. The only change to this book I would make is to add a prequel, but that might give away to much. I can't believe that this book was written by a high school senior. I would recommend this book for anyone 11 and up.
Mom of 2 Dancers – Besides this being a great book, it a good read for most ages. I'd let my 9 year old daughter read it since it isn't graphic, etc. It is probably geared more towards later tween years and teens. Plus of course, us adults that love young adult novels. I still can't get over the other being in high school. Congrats to Miss Barnes for writing a fantastic novel. I hope to see a Aurora Fee become a series!
Maria's Space -This is a young adult book and is written by a young adult. So, the dialogue is youthful and easy. This is a quick read and the characters aren't very deep but in this very creative storyline, I give kudos to Megan for her shout outs for one of my favorite books. Obviously a Twi-hard like me, Aurora is looking for her "Edward". Aurora and her boys (Kartik-Edward and Zane-Jacob) was very Twilightish. She is in love with two boys who will do anything for her yet, in the long run. She remains friends with Zane and chooses Kartik.

Hi chowhounds,
Some friends and I are looking for a place with good food and atmosphere (lively but not too loud to chat) for a girl's night out.
A bar (or restaurant bar) with tables (vs counter) that's fun but not too crowded would be perfect, preferably one that stays open till at least 11pm.
We live in the Needham/Westwood area but are willing to travel.
Thanks in advance for your experience and recommendations!

We finished the room switch this weekend. There are a few small details left but both rooms are quite useable. I have a few before, during, and after pictures to share.
Here is what the original classroom had begun to look like trying to get everything school rated into the 11' by 8' room.
During the switch we moved everything from the classroom to the garage…
and to the kitchen
(These pictures were taken during the switch)
Then we had to move all this
and this…
this and what was inside the cabinets…
down to the new craft room. Apparently this room had become a catch-all when I wasn't looking.
Just a little side note here: Before we started homeschooling, the old classroom was originally the craft room. When my oldest moved out we did a complete room switch around. My middle son was originally in the spare room, which is accessed through my daughter's room. We moved him into my oldest son's room, the craft room to the spare room and the old craft room became the classroom. Now here we are moving the craft room back to its original location. If you followed that you get an idea of how crazy it can be to have a home with options but still a blessing. J
After emptying the classroom we were able to move everything into the new (old) craft room. This is the end result.
Now it was time for the big switch to get the new classroom in order.
We moved everything upstairs resulting in these piles of chaos.
Friday, my husband and my father put in track lighting so the room would no longer be dark.
The light works great. It's as bright as day when it's on.
And now, without further adieu, the unveiling of the new classroom.
There are still a few things left to organize and I'd like to paint the cabinets but I think this will work out very well.

Jennifer would love youth to help with Sunday School for younger kids, leading Godly Play and Shepherding the classes. This counts for Volunteer service hours. Email Jennifer to sign up!
You can also sign up to help in worship in many, many ways, from scripture reading, AV support work, joining the church choir, ushering, or more. Email Greg to Learn More.
Every Sunday evening (Almost, anyway), we gather together in the Youth Hall to eat, play, worship, and serve together. We figure that most youth already know about God, but we really want everyone in this group to really experience God through fellowship, FUN, worship, and serving to community. We're also always looking for youth to help us with Welcoming newcomers, being mentors or tutors, supporting our mission work, or helping with the worship team. We always begin with a group meal and announcements, then we move on to thematic activities and games for the rest of the evening! Come and join us!
Middle Schoolers, Grades 5-8 - Beginning Friday, March 17th (Bowling) and Sunday April 2nd (Elevated Sportz, with the Sr High), we're starting outings or meetups for games twice a month. 7th and 8th graders (only) wanting "older" content can still come to Sunday Night Youth Group.
Meet at 5:00 p.m. on Sundays (before youth group) in the downstairs music room with Emily to be a part of the musical worship team to lead music in Worship - All youth and ability levels are welcome.
All youth, volunteers, and parents, are invited to our monthly planning meeting of Youth Council. This is where we discuss bigger plans like the Summer 2017 Mission Trip to Guatemala, plan fun outings, and hear about plans in the youth program.
Spend quality time in worship, play, and fun in the snow. Retreats are an awesome way to have fun with your youth group friends. Transportation will be provided, scholarships are available and we always need adult chaperones.Register online at the PNW Convo Website!
This is a parent-led effort to re-imagine the space of the youth hall and make it the best we can. Click here if you want to be added to the planning team.
Lead worship Sunday, June 12!
EUMC's safe-church policy states: No fewer than two adults (unrelated to one another) will be present at all times during any church-sponsored program, event, or ministry involving Children, Youth & Vulnerable Adults (CYVA), including overnight trips, off premises activities or group gatherings. With this ratio of adults to Youth: 5th-8th grades -2 adults for 1st 14 youth (1 for every next 7) and Youth 9th-12th grades - 2 adults for 1st 16 youth (1 for every next 8). And with parental permission, two adults are required to be present when traveling with youth in a car or van.

A new book, Tales from the Courtroom, by English lawyer Brian Harris offers an interesting mix of historical, mysterious and humorous legal vignettes, mostly of UK origin, but also including a few American tales.
The book includes a fair share of dark legal humor, such as the tale of a Scottish judge named Kames who in 1780 found himself trying Matthew Hay, his former chess partner, for murder. When the verdict of guilty was returned, Kames chillingly remarked, "That's checkmate to you, Matthew!" (Harris points out that the statement must be read in a Scottish accent for full effect.)
One of the best historical tales involves F.E. Smith's (Lord Birkenhead) tiff with a sanctimonious judge:
F.E. had been briefed for a tramway company which had been sued for damages for injuries to a boy who had been run over. The judge was deeply moved. 'Poor boy, poor boy', he said. 'Blind. Put him on a chair so that the jury can see him.'
F.E. said coldly: 'Perhaps your honour would like to have the boy passed round the jury box.'
'That is a most improper remark', said Judge Willis angrily.
'It was provoked', said F.E., 'by a most improper suggestion.' There was a heavy pause, and the judge continued, 'Mr. Smith, have you ever heard of a saying by Bacon—the great Bacon—that youth and discretion are ill-wed companions?'
'Indeed I have, your Honour; and has your Honour ever heard of a saying by Bacon—the great Bacon—that a much talking judge is like an ill-tuned cymbal?'
The judge replied furiously, "You are extremely offensive, young man'; and F.E. added to his previous lapses by saying: 'As a matter of fact we both are; the only difference between us is that I'm trying to be and you can't help it.'
The book is available on Amazon. A review can be found on Harris' TheAncientLawyer blog.

Artist: PAUL, ASHLEY
Title: White Night
Format: Cass
Label: Cassauna
Country: USA
Price: $11.00
|"White Night is a contemplative new collection of pieces from Ashley Paul. Using prepared guitar, green box, voice and reeds; her unique style lies somewhere between song, space, and dissonance, leaving the listener haunted in its closure. This cassette was recorded over the course of a year in four cities; Brooklyn, Boston, London and Orlando. Features contributions on two tracks from artists Eli Keszler (percussion) and Greg Kelley (trumpet)." - Cassauna.
Artist: PAUL, ASHLEY
Title: Line The Clouds
Format: LP
Label: Rel
Country: USA
Price: $21.00
|"Multi-faceted composer and performer Ashley Paul releases her new LP. A hyper-intuitive record, where off-kilter instrumentation meets beautifully crafted melodies to convey the very essence of musicality, Line the Clouds contains 44.18 minutes of sonic paradoxes and dichotomies. Stirring up a zephyr of twelve blissfully cacophonous sounds -- singular moments of an indivisible whole -- the focus is on guitar, voice and saxophone, but Ashley also employs everything from flute, clarinet, guitar, bells, percussion and prepared strings in her melodic endeavours which simultaneously plugs in the ghost of American song. From Wide Expanse -- where high-pitched reeds and whistles collide with richer tones and Ashleys fragile voice -- through the simple, sparkling beauty of the LPs title track -- with the guitar at the helm -- and the multi-vocal flutterings of Watch Them Pass, theres also the freeing experimentalism and atonal clatter of Feb.21 -- a song which ably immortalises a feeling of stomach churning anguish -- and the albums gentle, abstract finale Youre a Feeling. This Brooklyn based artist is at the vanguard of the new wave of music currently rippling through the city where opposing strains of style and sound work in unison. Line the Clouds will be available in a limited edition LP available on colored vinyl in a custom sealed package with screen printed wraparound of Ashleys animal drawings, in addition to a digital version." -Rel.

Senior Named to 2017 National Merit Scholarship Program
William Allen High School Principal Luke Shafnisky recently announced that William Allen senior, Anthony Richards, was named a Commended Student in the 2017 National Merit Scholarship Program.
About 34,000 Commended Students throughout the nation are being recognized for their exceptional academic promise. Although these students will not continue in the 2017 competition for National Merit Scholarship awards, Commended Students placed among the top 5% of more than 1.5 million students who entered the 2017 competition by taking the 2015 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT).
"We are proud of Anthony's accomplishments and the recognition he is receiving for his academic success," stated Shafnisky. "His commitment to pursing excellence in education is a reflection of what can be accomplished by our students. Anthony truly is representative of the best of Allen."
National Merit Scholarship Corporation is a not-for-profit organization that was established in 1955 specifically to conduct the annual National Merit Scholarship Program. Scholarships are underwritten by NMSC with its own funds and by approximately 440 business organizations and higher education institutions that share NMSC's goals of honoring the nation's scholastic champions and encouraging the pursuit of academic excellence.
