Here is quick roundup of some of the awesomeness I ran across on the web this week
+Amazon Prime Day Was a Monster: Part of the reason the name of this blog is Doctor-in-Debt and not Doctor-retired-on-the-beach-by-now is Amazon Prime makes shopping lazy in our house.
I don't know about you, but by the time I go to work and come back, it seems like the 2-day shipping is already at my doorstep.
+Why Simple Beats Complex: This concept works at the hospital as well as your investment account. We get caught up in making things so complex that they are sure to fail the first time we encounter adversity.
One of my jobs in the hospital is to make our operating rooms simple so that complex surgery can be safe for our patients.
The important point here is less Is more. Too much is just as bad as not enough.
+ For Those of You With Children: If you have kids at home, you are probably familiar with Walter Mischel's Marshmallow Test of self-control. Apparently, 4-year-olds from Cameroon performed much better than 4-year-olds from Germany.
The study calls into question Western assumptions about ideal parenting style.
+My New Favorite Blogging Tool: For the readers who are also bloggers, This is my new favorite blogging tool. I have never been a great writer, which is terribly ironic considering this little bit of fun I have going on here. It has been a gem at helping me with my spelling, grammar, and basic sentence structure.
Check it out if you were not the best English student in school!
Have a great weekend and thanks for following along,

Not that I'm obsessed with food, but...
Cressing Travel Blog› entry 24 of 55 › view all entries
May 17th, 2009 – by: sarahelaine
Cressing Temple Barns are lovely, for a start. They were built by the Templar Knights (yes, that's right, like in a Dan Brown book...) to store their grain in the early middle ages and that's quite interesting in its own right. But on food fair days, for the very reasonable entrance fee of £3.50 for adults, you get to eat your own body weight (or thereabouts) in free samples of dips and bread sticks, curries, fudge, cider, if you haven't brought the car... You get the idea. Of course, the people are trying to sell you things, but that really doesn't matter. ANd there are usually dogs to pat, cooking demos, and interesting pet rescue charities.
It pelted with rain for the first half of the day, and we ended up getting soaking wet whilst making friends with a Russian Guard Dog. That's the breed, not the dog's nationality. He was huge, and very friendly, and very, very wet. Having vowed not to buy anything, I went back to Swindon with a large butcher block for chopping things on, a small jar of lemon marmalade, and a cheese grater. There goes my shoe fund...

A new beginning, clean slate or fresh start- 3 ways people can describe a new year. This month, I have teamed up with Devonshire Mall to showcase some simple ways I am seizing the opportunity to set goals for 2017. Even though, I am not a big fan of resolutions, I love a reason to set the reset button after the holidays and get back to the grind. This year, I am sharing with you some simple hacks I have learnt over the years to eat healthier, hit the gym and stick to a beauty routine.
Get Inspired
"What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make." ― Jane Goodall
Read Up
Get inspired by picking up some health and wellness books you'll love. A big fave of mine are the Oh She Glows cookbooks. They are filled to the brim with healthy recipes that are delicious and leave you feeling great. My personal fave? The Almond Joy Granola Bars. A sweet treat with no guilt. I snagged this book at Chapters in Devonshire Mall.
Stay Stylish
Buy a new workout outfit or a that trendy water bottle you have been eyeing. This simply trick always works for me. Sporting something new to get my sweat-on is a simple way to inspire me to get to the gym and with Lululemon sticking around at Devonshire Mall, it was perfecting timing! This S'well water bottle from Chapters, Tank top and Hoodie (a size up from what I usually wear) from Lululemon allow me to still rock my bump if I pair them with these maternity workout tights from Old Navy.
Get a Facial
A trick I just picked up this year! After getting a facial at a local med spa this past fall, it inspired me to keep up the serious hydration and glow. After doing some research, I was off to Sephora at Devonshire Mall to add a few more essentials to my beauty routine to beat the winter blues.
Plan Ahead
"A goal without a plan is just a wish." ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Meal Prep
Get packing with fun and functional containers. Ready set meals and snacks is a sure-fire way to avoid those impulses of something not so good for you when you are trying to eat clean. I love the new bento boxes and bowls availible at chapters in Devonshire Mall for practical and easy prep!
Pack the Night Before
Another trick I have learned over the years is to pack everything you need to get to the gym/yoga the night before so you are ready to go and don't have an excuse! I love the roomy and functional Go Getter Bag from Lululemon especially because it has a spot to keep your sweaty stuff separate and has yoga mat straps that stow away when you don't need them.
Schedule Your Sweat Sessions
Lastly, just pencil your gym sessions in. If you are like me, you never have time to go to work out. But, when I book time in my calendar to go to a class or hit the gym I am much more likely to make it since I carved out the time in my day. I use a combination of my iPhone and this Bando agenda from Chapters in Devonshire Mall.
Get Up Early
Feeling extra motivated? Head to the gym before work- it's found time! Waking up that extra hour early may feel terrible at first, but you will love the fact your evening is free of the task of getting your sweat on.

Book Synopsis for Hunt for the Fallen:
Captain Jacob Billet
Journal Entry – Sunday April 5, 2026
It's raining, it's pouring, the undead are roaring…
Amassed at the UCRA east end enclosure, the dead strain the fence line while soldiers keep watchful eyes, the survivors on the opposite side of the rising river about to lose their minds.
It's a crazy time: nonstop precipitation; everyone's up in arms; paranoid city council members with an asshat City Treasurer. Water, water everywhere. Zees dropping into the churning drink. Troops afraid of being stitched up and thrown back into the fray as Zombie Troopers. Tank commanders getting itchy to head out on their own after drug-laden shamblers. Reganshire insurgents trying to extract our west side civvies for some unknown reason, possibly pushing the city into taking heavy-handed action against them.
Then there's some black-haired dead dude staring at me through the fence, grinning like he's off his meds.
And I thought Lettner was a headache.
All this sh*t might give me a heart attack.

Monmousseau, JM
The tradition started in 1886 by Alcide Monmousseau continues today. He had the insight to realize the potential of the Touraine (in the Loire Valley, 200-km south west of Paris) as a region that could produce remarkably fine wines. He acquired 15 km of galleries, with their year-round 12°C temperature, left behind from the quarrying of the limestone used in the construction of the nearby famous Châteaux Amboise, Chaumont, Chenonceaux, et cetera to store his wines.
His son Justin noted that aside from the grapes being different from the Champagne, all other conditions of soil and temperature were remarkably the same and he began the producing outstanding sparkling wines at the turn of the 20th Century.
The company has grown, and besides their highly regarded Méthode Traditionnelle wines, they produce the other great red and white wines from the Loire. The reputation of Monmousseau wines has resulted in their appointments as suppliers of prestigious sparkling wines to the Royal courts of Europe since the turn of the 20th Century.
2012 Cuvée JM Brut AC Touraine
Chenin Blanc
Produced in every respect like the wines from Champagne, as well as a minimum two years sur lies,the full remuage process prior to disgorging and nine weeks rest after, this 100% Chenin Blanc wine is exceptional in its quality and value. Possessing a slightly fruity nose, the fresh aromas of Chenin are maintained by a good reserve of acidity, resulting in a pleasant roundness. It has very abundant, long-lasting and elegant bubbles and a pale yellow crystal-clear colour.
Served at 6/8°C, it is ideal as an aperitif as well as a good match for light delicatessen, or to go with the whole meal, white meat, fish and white sauce.
Gold Medal - Concours Mondial de Bruxelles
2014 AOC Cheverny Blanc - Justin Monmousseau
70% Sauvignon Blanc & 30% Chardonnay
The robe of white Cheverny is of a brilliant pale gold with soft green tints. The complex and surprising bouquet gets close to lychees, flowers of acacia and ripe lemons with a light touch of blackcurrant and liquorice due to the Sauvignon grape. In the mouth, this very elegant wine concentrates its richness. Fresh, alive and fruity, it is fleshy with a nice and long finish.
Cheverny AC must be served between 8 and 10°C, so that its complexity and flavors can fully express themselves. Delicious and fresh as an aperitif, it is perfect to drink with fish and seafood. Try it with asparagus, It's a happy marriage!
2014 AOC Chinon - Cuvée Justin Monmousseau
Cabernet Franc
Chinon at its best - amazing what Cabernet Franc from the Loire offers!
Beautiful ruby colour. A subtle and intense bouquet of red fruit with a note of violets, which is mirrored on the palate. Fleshy but elegant, this wine also has a good structure which will enable it to harmoniously age for several years although it may be enjoyed immensely when young and vibrant.
2015 AOC Rosé d'Anjou - Justin Monmousseau
60% Cabernet Franc, 40% Grolleau & 40% Grolleau
A blend of Cabernet Franc and Grolleau. The Cabernet provides the rosé wine with its structure while the Grolleau (or Groslot), recommended for rosés wines, provides its spirit and merriness.
A pale pink colour, slightly salmon and translucent, seduces the eye. A hint of sweetness on the palate, light in alcohol, very aromatic with red fruit smells, it is a ' summer wine ' par excellence. Serve it chilled at about 8°C. Perfect with poultry and white meat, it skillfully goes with all spring and summer meals. You will also appreciate it during hot sunny summer afternoons.
Brut Etoile AC Touraine
70% Chenin Blanc & 30% Chardonnay
Made in the traditional method from 70% Chenin Blanc and 30% Chardonnay and allowed to age sur lies fro 18 months this delightful sparkling wine is light golden in colour with small long-lasting bubbles. A full and frothy initial expression, with almond, fig and pear flavors, and a soft refreshing finish. Best served at 6-8°C.
Cuvée JM Brut Rosé AC Touraine
70% Cabernet Franc & 30% Gamay Noir
The 70% Cabernet Franc and 30% Gamay grapes are vinified as white wines for this cuvée according to the Méthode Traditionnelle process. Its secondary fermentation on laths and a maturation of 18 months in troglodyte caves at a natural and constant temperature of 12°C, provide it with a special elegance. It is very refined.
Gamay in the Loire tends to be light and very fruity and have low levels of alcohol while Cabernet Franc, also known as Breton, produces a well-structured, fragrant quality wine. According to the soil, it can have raspberry or violet aromas. It is a perfect complement for the Gamay grape, to which it adds its 'winey ' appearance and structure in blending.
Its colour is a delicate salmon pink. The bubbles are very fine and abundant, and are long-lasting in the flute. Its bouquet is very fruity. Hints of raspberry are noticeable and forecast the explosion of aromas of summer fruit on the palate. It is both as lively, round, and supple. Served at 6- 8°C, it will offer all its complexity and delicacy.

Over a decade of running The Sun-Herald City2Surf, Robert Gale is a great inspiration!
Publish Date: 22/7/2016
This year's Sun-Herald City2Surf's 14km race will mark Robert Gale's 12th run.
This is an impressive feat for anyone but this year also marks the tenth time Robert has run the race while raising much needed funds for the Leukaemia Foundation, a charity that is close to his heart.
Robert (pictured left) was diagnosed with myelofibrosis and had a bone marrow transplant in 2002. He is now in the clear and wants to help the Leukaemia Foundation because he and his family received such great support.
Robert and his family stayed in the Leukaemia Foundation accommodation and he also found the home/hospital visits and other services very helpful.
Two years after recovering from his bone marrow transplant, he was off many of the treatments and he returned to jogging. Since being better he's wanted to give back even more and we're humbled by his dedication and pleased to see he is in good health.
Since Robert is no stranger to the City2Surf, he has some advice to those who have gone through a similar blood disorder journey and are thinking of getting active again.
"At the start I ran about 1km and gradually built that up over time, so I was able to run 14km in a reasonable time," said Robert. "It would be good to incorporate some hills in your training routine, so Heartbreak Hill won't be such a struggle. If you are going through similar treatments and wish to start running, just start out slow and build up distance over time, listen to your body and enjoy it."
Robert says The City2Surf can be challenging but it's also a fun day out.
"The City2Surf is not an easy event, there's flat, uphill, downhill, windy and also negotiating all the other runners about you," said Robert." But it is a real buzz running with that many people and also the spectators are fantastic, there are bands playing, cheer squads and heaps of encouragement all round."
Being the world's largest fun run and voted Sydney's favourite sporting event, The Sun-Herald City2Surf is bound to be an experience like no other.
The Leukaemia Foundation receives no ongoing government funding and relies on the generous support of the community to continue its important work.
You can join people like Robert and Get Your Blood Pumping for Blood Cancer or show your support to Robert by donating to his City2Surf run today.

Title: Arcade Catastrophe
Author: Brandon Mull
Series: The Candy Shop War #2
Publisher: Shadow Mountain
Released: October 12, 2012
Website: http://brandonmull.com
The long-awaited sequel to The Candy Shop War! In The Candy Shop War, friends Nate, Summer, Trevor, and Pigeon met the evil magician Belinda White, whose magical confections enabled the kids to do incredible feats of strength and magic. In the sequel, Nate and his friends meet Mrs. White s brother Mr. White who owns Arcadeland, a local amusement center. At Arcadeland, kids can play games and earn thousands of tickets, which are redeemable for one of four kinds of stamps jets, tanks, subs, and racecars. Could it be true that these stamps allow kids to fly through the air? Or breathe underwater? Or run faster than a car? But Mr. White is hiding a secret: when all four clubs are filled, he will be able to retrieve perhaps the most powerful talisman ever. For Nate and his friends, it will take more than candy to fight and win this war!
The Candy Shop War is a favorite around my house. Two of my children used it for their most recent book report. Our copy is dog-eared and looks like it's been around for years when in reality it's only a couple months old but it's been carried around with one child or another to so many places it's showing signs of love.

Close your eyes for a second. Imagine the salty smell of popcorn and sweet aroma of cotton candy, the sparkle of glitter and whimsy of balloons, and the trumpeting of elephants and rumbling roar of lions.

Where is the theme of loyalty present?
- print Print
- list Cite
Loyalty is a central theme of A Separate Peace. The notion of loyalty is present through much of the novel, but as the novel moves forward the simple loyalty attributed to Finny is complicated and developed into a complex notion relating to individual identity, innocence (and the loss of innocence), and the meaning of integrity.
Initially, loyalty is introduced as one of Finny's most telling characteristics. He is loyal to his friends and to his school in a way that is at once unshakable and innocent. His loyalty is questioned by Gene when Gene begins to suspect that Finny has been competing with him all along. Finny's loyalty is shown to be misplaced when Gene knocks him out of the tree, maiming him.
Gene attempts to reconstruct the loyalty shared between him and Phineas, but the episode in the tree remains between them. This is the beginning of a series of complications that undermine the simplicity of loyalty presented at the novel's opening.
More examples of these complications can be seen in Leper's "escape" from the army, Leper's rejection of Gene and rejection by Gene, Gene's reticence to enlist, Brinker's decision to join the Coast Guard instead of another branch of the service, Brinker's relationship with his father, and Gene's ultimate insistence on identifying with Finny even after Finny's death.
The characters in the novel are challenged to first discover who they are as individuals and then to be true to that discovery. This dynamic feeds into the complexity of the theme of loyalty.

Before Kevin and I got married, I sat down with my mom and his mom and gathered our favorite recipes. This was a LONG process – as both of our moms had a lot of valuable kitchen tips, tricks, and recipes to share! One of the recipes that Kevin's mom gave me was her Chicken Alfredo recipe.
I have always enjoyed eating Kevin's mom's homemade Chicken Alfredo {except right now when I'm pregnant — Baby Brooklynn absolutely HATES Chicken Alfredo}. This recipe also happens to be one of Kevin's #1 favorite meals. So, Chicken Alfredo was one of the very first recipes that I made when Kevin and I settled down post-wedding. In the process of making this delicious dish… I discovered that the method that his mom used to cook the chicken was absolutely DELICIOUS {as I did not know this prior to making it… because I had only tasted the end product}.
Kevin and I typically had a very hard time getting a good portion size of the chicken alfredo… because we would eat SO MUCH of the chicken as soon as it came out of the oven {and before we put it in the pasta & sauce}. A couple of times, I made this chicken for dinner and completely left the "alfredo" out of the whole process — it is THAT flavorful!
Kevin and I were going on vacation to the beach a few weeks ago. Prior to us leaving for the beach, we did not go to the grocery store to stock up our kitchen. We wanted to eat as much of the food that we already had as possible. So, that left me improvising in the kitchen for dinner.
One night, I realized that I had all of the ingredients to make the garlic chicken that was typically put into chicken alfredo. Since I am pregnant — and my child does not like chicken alfredo — I decided to tweak the recipe a bit to make it baby-friendly. We had about a half of a bag of small red potatoes in the pantry that were about to go bad… So I put my improvising kitchen-skills to the test.
The outcome of the meal that we had that night was DELICIOUS. It made me want to experiment in the kitchen more often! Although that night our meal was simply chicken and potatoes… I have made this recipe a few different times since to tweak it and make it even more delicious. So — I finally got the recipe exactly how Kevin and I like it, and I wanted to share.
Although I do not know how many calories, etc. is in this meal… I figure that it has to be relatively healthy. {Okay, okay — probably not a meal that a professional figure athlete might eat on a hardcore diet… but for the average household ~ it is much healthier than McDonalds and other types of fried/processed foods!}
- 3-4 Chicken Breasts
- Garlic Powder
- Garlic Salt
- Seasoned Salt
- 1 Onion
- 1 Lemon
- 1/2 pound of fresh green beans
- 8 small red potatoes
- 4 cloves of garlic {minced}
- 3 Carrots
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Chicken Broth
Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees.
This recipe takes about 30 minutes of prep and 50 minutes of cooking.
I have only cooked this dish for two people. However, we ALWAYS eat more than one portion AND we have some left over. So, look at the ingredients and add more based on the needs of your family.
- First, trim all of the fat off of your chicken breasts.
- Cut them into chunks and put them into a baking dish.
- Very generously season your chicken with seasoned salt, garlic salt, and garlic powder.
This step is sort of a trial-and-error type of step. The amount of seasoning you put on your chicken is entirely dependent on how strong you want your dish to be flavored. One thing to think about: in later steps, you are going to be covering the chicken and vegetables with olive oil and chicken broth. When you do this, the seasoning is going to get all mixed up in the liquid. That being said, I always OVER season my chicken in order for there to be enough seasoning throughout the dish to really give entire meal a fantastic flavor.
- Peel the four cloves of garlic, mince them, and put them in the dish with the seasoned chicken.
The fresh garlic adds an additional and more authentic garlic flavor. However, you do not have to add fresh garlic. The dish will be tasty even without fresh garlic.
- Slice up the onion and put it on top of the chicken.
- Slice up the red potatoes, and put them on top of the dish. I typically slice my potatoes into fourths or even sixths. I want the potatoes relatively thick – because I don't want squishy potatoes… but I don't want them too thick to where they don't absorb enough of the flavor.
*** If you like your carrots to be completely done and "squishy", go ahead and put them in your dish during this step! If you like crunchier carrots, disregard this little side note and follow the rest of the recipe! :)***
- Pour a mixture of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and chicken broth over the chicken, onion, and potatoes. There is no "measurement" for how much of each to put in. Just make sure that everything is relatively covered in the mixture. I typically put my mixture at a 2:1 ratio. Meaning, I put about 1/2 as much EVOO in my dish as I do chicken broth (or, I put double the amount of chicken broth than I do EVOO). The chicken broth holds ALOT of the flavor that you are going to want in your dish!!
- Take a spoon and stir everything up — you want all of that seasoning that you drenched your chicken with to be completely mixed into the liquid and all over ALL of the veggies.
- Cut your lemon in half and squeeze one half on top of everything.
- Optional: Sprinkle some additional seasoned salt on top of the dish to season the potatoes that are not under the liquid mixture.
- Put the dish in the oven for 25 minutes at 375 degrees.
While you are waiting on the 25 minutes to be completed, chop up your carrots (not baby carrots!) and trim your fresh green beans.
***My husband does NOT like squishy "too done" carrots. Personally — I like carrots either way. So, for our household, I wait to put the carrots in until a bit later because it keeps them from getting "squishy". If your family prefers carrots to be all the way softened, go ahead and put them in when you put the dish in for 25 minutes. That way, they will have plenty of time to soak up all of the chicken broth and olive oil and get nice and soft.***
Once the first 25 minutes are up:
- Take the dish out of the oven. Put your carrots into the dish and stir it up. Put back in the oven for 15 more minutes.
Once the 15 minutes are up:
- Take the dish out of the oven.
- Put the green beans in the dish and stir it up.
- Take the other half of your lemon and squeeze it on top of your dish. If you are NOT a fan of lemon – this part can be left out. I personally love lemon flavor on my green veggies, which is why I added this step in there. However, it is completely optional and will not ruin the dish if you choose not to put it on there.
- Put the dish back in the oven for 10 minutes.
The reason that I wait until the very very end to put my green beans in the oven is because I want them to soak up the flavors of the chicken broth mixture WITHOUT getting soggy. Kevin and I do NOT like soggy green beans! Leaving them in for about 10 minutes gives them enough time to get hot and full of flavor without making them a soggy, mushy mess!
And voila! You're done! Kevin's FAVORITE part of this dish is the chicken. He loves the flavor that all of the different spices gives it. However — my favorite part of this dish are the potatoes! Small red potatoes are bursting with flavor as it is… but when they are soaked for 50+ minutes in the chicken broth, EVOO, and seasoning… they soak up the flavor and are absolutely mouth-watering delicious!
I hope you've enjoyed — Feel free to let me know how it turned out for you and if you have any tips for making this dish even MORE delicious! I'm by no means a chef — just a regular ole' housewife being experimental in the kitchen. So, any advice for taking this delicious dish to the next level is welcome! 🙂

Regional Reviews: Minneapolis/St. Paul
The Events
Also see Arty's reviews of Rodney King, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Murder for Two
One actor plays Claire, a lesbian minister and director of the choir, who survived the ordeal but was victimized by survivor's guilt and a need to understand why this happened. A second actor plays the unnamed shooter, as well as a host of other roles including several people who knew the shooter in differing capacities, Claire's psychiatrist and Claire's partner Catriona.
Along with these two actors, the stage is occupied by a complete choir, playing the part of Claire's multicultural choir. At times the choir repeats parts of the text in unison as a sort of Greek chorus, and at other times individual choir members step out to read particular lines. Under the aegis of Actors Touring Company, The Events has played in many settings in Europe and the United States, at each stop inviting local choirs to take the part of the on-stage choir. A number of choirs are participating during the play's run at the Guthrie. Opening night featured ENCORE!, an ensemble of the Twin Cities Women's Choir.
Much of The Events feels like stream of consciousness in Claire's mind, as she recalls the shooter's first appearance in the choir rehearsal room; Claire inviting him to join them in song; his rail against the subjugation of aboriginals by western invaders and that he kills to protect his tribe rom softness; his messianic comparisons between himself and Jesus, Bob Geldof and Gavrilo Princip (who fired the shot that precipitated World War I); the terror of the shooting, of being in hiding, and of direct confrontation with the shooter; questioning the shooter's father, school chum, psychologist (who describes him as "empathy impaired", a diagnoses to which Claire takes great objection) and his political idol. There is a round of "frequently asked questions" read by individual choir members (such as "What is your favorite movie?" "Do you hate foreigners?," and "Are you a virgin?") like the audience of a daytime talk show. We also witness her argue with Catriona about her consuming obsession with the events.
Claire imposes various forms of therapy on her choirshamanistic chants and shrieks, relaxation exercises, exotically concocted teas, deconstructing familiar songsto seek healing, ostensibly for the choir, but really for herself. She finally gains permission to meet with the shooter at the prison in which he is confined. He appears childlike, responding to her questions in the most literal manner, as if not grasping how much harm he has done to this visitor. His account of the circumstances that led to his purchase of a gun are especially gripping. Claire is torn between her desires to seek revenge and to gain understanding, to know why this atrocity took place, but even as the shooter answers each of her questions, there are no answers. It appears that the shooter himself no longer understands his own actions, nor can he draw a link between his past and the present moment.
By intent, The Events is disturbing, as sometimes strong drama must be. However, it could also be rather dreary without two actors who breathe the fire of life into their characters. Lesley Hart accomplishes this as Claire, vocally and physically dramatizing her torment, making it clear that, though she survived the events, she is forever more to live as a victim of them. We see her mind jump from one obsessive thought to another, as she searches for some point of certainty on which to cling. We feel the great courage that drives her to search for a truth that can explain what has happened, even at the cost of pushing others away.
Clifford Samuel is every bit her equal as the boy, and the host of others inhabiting Claire's mind. He shifts seamlessly from one role to another, using nothing more than voice and posture to mark the change. Even as Claire's partner Catriona he is fully believable, expressing both great affection and deep disappointment in the course of their relationship since the events. As the incarcerated shooter, he manages to invoke sympathy even as we are fully aware of the heinous crime he has committed. The use of one actor to play a multitude of parts seems not intended merely to show off the actor's craft, but as a way to present Claire's obsession with unearthing the cause of this calamity; she sees everyone who is in any way connected to the events as a manifestation of the boy with the gun.
As the lights dim, ENCORE! starts things off by performing their own snazzy arrangement of the 1921 jazz standard "There'll Be Some Changes Made." In the course of the play, the choir sings old songs, such as the hymn "How Great Thou Art," pop songs like Dizzee Rascal's "Bonkers" (the shooter's favorite song) and several compositions by John Browne, written for The Events, such as a reprise of the shooter's ruminations on "By the Time He Was My Age," turned into a rockin' gospel anthem, and another anthem with the empowering refrain "We are here." There are also vocalized backgrounds without words that add depth to particular moments. ENCORE! sings beautifully, with whispering gentleness or rafter-raising force, with music director Joe Bunker accompanying on an upright piano.
There are no costumes to speak of, other than Claire's clerical collar. The set consists of choir risers across the back of the stage, a table for serving tea, and the piano. Stacked molded meeting room chairs are set out by Claire for the choir to sit upon at one point, then restackednone of it for any visible reason, other than giving Claire a way to channel her need to create order. Sound and light design reinforce the strong feelings throughout the play.
There are some curiosities about the play, such as when the choir sings "We are Here" a curtain hanging behind the risers is raised to reveal the back stage wall, though for no obvious purpose. The end offers a shard of hope to be based more on wishful thinking than on anything in the preceding ninety minutes.
The sum effect of The Events, though, is shattering. It lays bare how an act of extreme violence not only ends lives, but can tear the lives of survivors so asunder, that their former selves are as lost as those buried in the ground. At the same time it posits that there are no easy answers to the question "why?". Are forgiveness and love enough to move on from such tragedy? We are left with no clear answer, except that we must continue to try. As we can barely go through a week without another headline screaming of another senseless killing, The Events demand our attention.
The Events, an Actors Touring Company production presented by the Guthrie Worldstage Series, continues through November 1, 2015, at the Guthrie Theater's McGuire Proscenium Stage. 618 South 2nd Street, Minneapolis, MN, 55115.

His Grandmom kept on giving all the hugs and attention to his little brother, this made him sad, bot obviously didnt show any emottion....he also, because of the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) doesnt show his affection towards her...so its easy to not invest in a relationship with him.... He and his little brother then started playing at the pool and slippy sliding....so my difficult child tried to impress us with a move that made him fall and hurt his shoulder...so I said he must be carefull, he can brake his color bone....he misinterpreted it as critisism and gave me the middle finger infront of his grandmother...I said he must behave...this escalated...he became misrable...saying bad words here and there....By this time I felt like running away......! He later, when repremanted spit twice infront of him....my mother in law said this wasnt nice to do....when realizing she has hurt his feelings, she tried to make a joke...he turned around and became quiet.... I couldn't be myself anymore....I became withdrawn...my head felt like bursting....I still tried to be nice but by this time my voice was monotone...something I do automaticly to calm difficult child down....

Mahendra Singh Dhoni files 100-crore defamation case against media houses, IPS officer
Madras High Court restrains Zee Media Corporation and News Nation Network from publishing or telecasting any news content about Mahendra Singh Dhoni in connection with allegations in the IPL match-fixing case.
India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has filed a Rs 100-crore defamation case in the Madras High Court against media houses Zee Media Corporation and News Nation Network alleging that they have telecast "false news reports" to link him with "illegal activities of betting, match fixing and spot fixing." (Also read: Don't reveal players' names, BCCI pleads Supreme Court)
The court on Tuesday restrained the two media houses from publishing or telecasting any news content about Dhoni in connection with allegations in the IPL match-fixing case, or in any manner insinuating about his integrity and honesty. (Also read: Zee hits back at Dhoni)
In his order, Justice S Tamilvanan said, "I am of the view that there is a prima facie case and the balance of convenience is also in favour of the plaintiff. Hence interim injection is granted for a period of two weeks."
Dhoni, who is currently leading India in the ICC World Twenty20 in Bangladesh, said in his petition, "Since February 11, 2014, Zee Media Corporation Limited (Zee News Channel) and Sudhir Chaudhary, editor and business head of the channel in collusion with G.Sampath Kumar (suspended police officer) have been telecasting and broadcasting and hosting false news reports insinuating that the plaintiff (Dhoni) was involved in the illegal activities of betting, match fixing and spot fixing."
The Indian skipper also said that Noida-based News Nation Network Private Limited (News National channel) joined the tirade against him and later on went to the extent of stating that he was summoned by the Tamil Nadu police. This Dhoni said was also utterly false.
The suit also says, "The reports that were broadcast by the news networks revolved around IPL team Chennai Super Kings of which Dhoni is the captain and the alleged involvement of him in fixing devastated the reputation and image of the Dhoni and his image in the eyes of millions of fans all over the world."
Chennai Super Kings official, Gurunath Meiyappan, who is the son-in-law of BCCI president N. Srinivasan, is being investigated for charges of corruption during the IPL. Meiyappan has been charged of betting and sharing team information by the Supreme Court-appointed inquiry committee led by former Punjab and Haryana High Court Chief Justice Mukul Mudgal.
The Mudgal committee report includes alleged findings by Sampath Kumar, who investigated the IPL betting racket for two weeks on behalf of the Tamil Nadu Q branch, a state intelligence wing. Kumar, who was transferred to the Railway police in Trichy, had deposed before the Mudgal committee.
The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments on the Mudgal committee reports on March 25. One of the reports mentions alleged telephonic conversations of Indian players with bookies.

Why do newspaper stories almost never start with a question?
Why do newspaper stories almost never start with a question?
OK, I know the answer to that one: If the reader's answer to the question is no, why read on?
But I think it's time to break with tradition, don't you? How about nothing but questions today?
Why don't we ask ourselves about the important issues of the day, like how is it possible for CVS to make its bags even thinner and more see-through?
Is there anyone who really wants random strangers to get a good, clear view of what you've purchased at the drugstore?
If so, are they the same people who answer with a resounding "Yes!'' when a newly married family member suggests they should appear on a reality TV show and the name of the show is "Monster In-Laws?''
Does seeing the same TV commercial two or three times in a row make anyone more likely to buy the advertised product or more inclined to vote for the featured political candidate?
Or is it more likely to lead to increased TV sales to replace the sets that have been broken in fits of rage?
Are shorts suits for women ever a great idea for office wear?
So why do fashion magazines push the ridiculous notion every few years?
Has any umpire in the history of baseball decided to reverse a call because a player or manager started yelling, swearing or kicking dirt?
But wasn't it kind of worth it for the guy in charge of music to get ejected for playing "Three Blind Mice'' in tribute to the ump's call at a recent Daytona Cubs game?
How do Comedy Central producers pick people to roast?
Are those who decided Roseanne Barr and Pamela Anderson would be perfect picks the same people Dean Martin used to choose roastees like Shecky Greene?
Are beach towels hanging over a porch railing the ultimate symbol of summer?
If we can land our Curiosity on Mars, is there still no way to get a better idea of which towns "hit or miss'' showers will hit or miss?
Can anyone, including members of the International Olympic Committee, really name all the events deemed to be Olympic "sports?''
Will synchronized diving onto the rhythmic beach volleyball court make the cut as an official event in 2016?
Did you hate admitting that you did really, really want to (and did) sing along with the Spice Girls Sunday night?
Isn't it pretty cool that even people who don't know the first thing about gymnastics now know the names of 16-year-old Gabby Douglas and Needham's own Aly Raisman?
Isn't it refreshing to see someone other than a Kardashian on the cover of People this week?
Can anyone explain how Jennifer Aniston's engagement affects the average American's life?
Which will happen first: Framingham becomes a city or the Natick Mall gets another revamp and rebranding?
How is it that spaghetti sauce can hunt you down and attack you when you're wearing your nice new white shirt, even if there's no one eating spaghetti for miles around?
Is nothing but questions like a summer road trip in a car without air conditioning? Or more like that lone fly in the kitchen you chase relentlessly but can never kill?

The ad was placed on a digital billboard equipped with ultra sonic sensors in a subway – that upon arrival the short film clip on the screen changed, from beauty pic to hair blowing in the wind as the train passes. A shampoo truly bringing hair to life. A Swedish agency, Garbergs got a hold of the ad and put a new message to it to help raise awareness for childhood cancer. Instead of the young woman's hair blowing in the wind the woman's hair is blown off leaving her with no hair and the statement 'every day a child is diagnosed with cancer'. The power of technology and great messaging created a campaign that was both moving and captivating. To view the video click here.

Housing your rabbit
A rabbit's home should be big enough to hold a litterbox, water and food bowls and give him enough room to stretch out or play. It should include bunny-safe toys and chewables to keep him occupied. All rabbits need daily exercise time to stay healthy and minimize boredom.
It should be out of direct sunlight and in a place where he can have some quiet time and feel safe. Even free-roaming rabbits need a place to call their own, for their peace of mind and yours. Creatures of habit, they need to know where to go for their food, water and litterbox. Rabbits enjoy a place to hide, whether a willow tent, cardboard box or tube.
When shopping for housing in a pet store, forget the rabbit aisle and head to the dog supplies for housing and cat aisle for litter pans. (Bunny litter pans, like bunny cages, are almost always too tiny.)
Pens: Metal puppy exercise pens make a great housing choice for rabbits and can be reconfigured (or multiples put together) to allow the bunny more freedom. A pen can used to protect non-bunny-proofed areas of your house from your exploring bunny. Pens can also be used to extend the living space of a caged rabbit by placing it around the open door of his cage, where the rabbit can choose to go back into the comfort of its cage. Pens and gates made of plastic or wood are too easily chewed by a bunny's sharp teeth.
Cages/Dog Crates: If you buy a commercial cage or dog crate, bigger is better. A cage should be at least four times longer than the rabbit and tall enough to give enough room for him to stretch up—bigger if he's confined there a large part of the day. If your cage has a wire floor, you'll need to provide a floor covering as their feet have no pads to protect them. The cage should have a side door that the rabbit can hop through unassisted. A top door is helpful for times when you need to reach into the cage for cleaning or to remove the rabbit. For the pampered bunny, Leithworks multi-level bunny condos are available online.
Cleanup can be made easier by placing a layer of cardboard in the bottom of the cage.
NIC cubes (Neat Idea Cubes and other brands): There are no limits to how you can configure a cage or enclosure for your rabbit with these readily available 14" metal square panels sold as shelving elements. See cage ideas. The panels are cost-effective and can easily be pieced together with plastic multi-purpose wire ties. Dimensions can be adjusted by simply adding or removing panels to fit your space. Doors can be made by attaching only one side of the square as "hinges." See plans for construction and photos. The cage to the left is mounted on a plywood base for stability.
Free-roaming bunnies (with limits): An untrained rabbit needs supervision when you're not there to monitor him. Once your rabbit is well litter trained, and when your house or an area of it is bunny-proofed, your rabbit can be allowed free run of the home (or part of it) even when you're not there. The more room your rabbit has to run around in, the more a part of your family he becomes, and he will reward you with his antics and be a better companion.
See The House Rabbits Society's housing page for more information.

Stone Mandala I
Before I happened on my first flower mandala, I experimented with "mandala-izing" images of stones and the sky. I still rotate these images as my desktop wallpaper, and today this one, which I had not looked at for several years, popped up, and I realized it still had a kind of magic for me. I hope it does for you, as well.

Jessica Szohr Bio – Smartasses Magazine – Jessica Karen Szohr (born March 31, 1985) is an American actress. Szohr is of Hungarian and African-American descent. She was born in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. The oldest of five children, Szohr graduated from Menomonee Falls High School a semester early and moved to Los Angeles with her mother at the age of seventeen to pursue an acting career. She is of Hungarian, Irish, English and African descent.
Szohr started modeling at age six, and her first national campaign was for Quaker Oats at age ten. She later appeared in ads for Kohl's, Crate & Barrel, Mountain Dew, Sears, Jockey and JanSport. Szohr initially aspired to become an interior designer and had enrolled in Columbia College Chicago, but her agent ultimately convinced her to try auditioning for television pilots instead. Szohr made her television debut in 2003, on an episode of My Wife and Kids. That same year, she made her film debut in 2003's Uncle Nino, playing a minor role as The MC. Szohr also took on various small roles in several television series' including as That's So Raven, Drake & Josh, What I Like About You and Joan of Arcadia, and also appeared in the recurring role of Samantha Barrish on three episodes of CSI: Miami. She later played the major recurring character of Laura, on six episodes of the ABC dramedy series What About Brian in 2007. Later that year, Szohr began what would become her breakthrough role as Vanessa Abrams on the hit CW teen drama series Gossip Girl, alongside Taylor Momsen and Benita Robledo. Originally cast in a smaller role, Szohr was promoted to a series regular after the season one episode The Blair Bitch Project in April 2008. In May 2011, it was confirmed that she would not be returning for the fifth season, however, she returned for a cameo appearance on the series finale, New York, I Love You XOXO in December 2012.

Szohr has an affinity for snowboarding, hiking, yoga and soccer, loves Cheetos, and is a huge Green Bay Packers fan. While in school, Szohr played soccer, served on the student council, and was part of the cheerleading squad.

Why we think she's hot:
When People Magazine named Jessica Szohr as one of their best dressed in 2010, they described her as having gorgeous looks and downtown style. While there's no denying that Jessica is indeed well-adorned and stunning, we would respectfully argue that the appeal of The Jessica is more a case of her being a hot mess… in a good way. Perhaps it's the way she's often spotted waltzing about town with the genesis of dreadlocks, no hint of makeup, and those eleven tattoos on her left arm, but she strikes us as the kind of tomboy-boho chic gal who could care less whether the bathroom door is open or closed, and likes to roam around your bachelor flat on Saturday morning in nothing but your Friday afternoon oxford. Truth be told, it's too bad Miss Szohr was only sixteen at the time, because if we had things our way, we would have been casting her as Mark Wahlberg's sexy sidekick in the 2001 remake of Planet of The Apes instead of Estella Warren. If there's anyone out there who can pull off an updated version of Linda Harrison's Nova from the original film, it's this gal. Either way, put it all together in the same package as those two enthralling hazel eyes, and very quickly- the keyword in hot mess definitely becomes hot.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Alice Love is twenty-nine, crazy about her husband, and pregnant with her first child. So imagine Alice's surprise when she comes to on the floor of a gym and is whisked off to the hospital where she discovers the honeymoon is truly over — she's getting divorced, she has three kids and she's actually 39 years old. Alice must reconstruct the events of a lost decade, and find out whether it's possible to reconstruct her life at the same time. She has to figure out why her sister hardly talks to her, and how is it that she's become one of those super skinny moms with really expensive clothes. Ultimately, Alice must discover whether forgetting is a blessing or a curse, and whether it's possible to start over.
Heads up! This bad boy is becoming a movie some time in 2016/17. I am literally frothing at the mouth to see this, and I'm not a movie person. Will you watch it?
Borderline 5 star
- The depth of the characters was lovely. I was invested in the human-ness of everyone - their behaviours, their quirks, Alice's inner dialogue.
- Alice. She was bloody funny.
- How Australian this book was. Being a kiwi, I could relate to their snacks, their seasons, their speech. I forgot how much I missed that, reading US and UK authors lately.
- Oh, the mystery of it all! I loved how the story unfolded.
- Elisabeth's story. I wanted something good for her so. So. Badly.
- Frannie's letters to Phil. I don't know why, but I just couldn't get into those parts. Between you and I, I skimmed most of those letters just enough to read the parts about Alice, Nick or Elisabeth.
- I didn't fully understand why Nick (or anyone else) would leave amnesia-riddled Alice with 3 children she couldn't remember. Surely someone would have stepped in to keep an eye on things for at least the first few days. It just didn't make sense to me.
Loved it like a chocolate fish. It's like that feeling you get when you have a whole season of your favourite show recorded and ready to go - the beginning of a journey! I can't wait to read more from Liane Moriarty.

The Pacific dolphins in this film are completely wild and free. They participate in the dance because of their own curiosity or joy, just like the human dancers.
The filmmakers are dedicated to meeting the dolphins on their terms. We never feed or coerce dolphins, or attempt to interact if they are resting, feeding, or show any signs of annoyance or disinterest.

Divine Savior Academy is part of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS), one of the largest private school systems in the United States. The WELS has a rich tradition of academic excellence and has operated highly-regarded schools across the United States, the Caribbean, and the world for over 165 years. Currently, WELS churches and associations operate 409 early childhood centers, 318 elementary schools, and 23 high schools across the nation.
On average, students attending WELS schools annually outperform their peers by a considerable margin on national achievement tests. We humbly thank God for His blessings on our schools and are excited to continue this rich tradition of academic excellence on our campuses.
Christian education is Christ-centered education. Our Savior and His love for us are at the heart of all we think, say, and do. All subjects in our curriculum are taught from a distinctively Christian point of view, and all our activities are centered in a Christian environment.
Divine Savior is a place where the Bible serves as the source of truth, and a love for God and His Word is nurtured in our precious children. At DSA, children grow in their relationship with the Lord on their journey toward Christian maturity.
Divine Savior Academy is supported by Divine Savior Church. Our church pastors serve and support the families of Divine Savior with Bible classes, family counseling, and worship services within a loving, supportive community.
Divine Savior Academy graduates have been accepted to many prestigious colleges and universities including Ivy League Cornell University, M.I.T., the University of California-Berkeley, Georgetown University, the University of Miami, and more.
Divine Savior's rich curriculum is designed with flexibility to meet the needs of each student as it fosters exploration, critical thinking, problem solving, and sound study habits. The ultimate goal is to cultivate and maximize each student's unique talents and abilities.
In preschool and kindergarten, the classroom is a place for students to learn and explore through active and experiential learning. Concrete, hands-on activities in math, science, and literacy become the basis for elementary school readiness. A teacher and para-educator team in each classroom ensures that all students have the individual attention they need to learn and the social-emotional support they need to thrive.
In elementary school, the goal of our curriculum is to provide a solid academic foundation in the math, literature, grammar, writing, science, and social studies. Students also learn problem solving and study habits that will prepare them for middle school and beyond. Enrichment classes are part of every student's schedule. Art, music, physical education, and foreign language classes provide a complete educational experience for students.
In middle school, our academic program is focused on mastering the core classes in order to prepare students for the rigors of high school.
Critical thinking and problem solving are stressed, as well as mastering independent study skills. The middle school schedule of classes is fully departmentalized and includes enrichment instruction in art, music, physical education, foreign language, and technology.
In high school, our academic program has three levels: College-Prep, Honors, and Advanced Placement (AP). DSA also offers Project Lead the Way, a nationally-recognized Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics program (STEM). DSA course offerings also allow students to choose a pre-professional track in business, information technology, mass media, science, or the fine arts.
Our high school curriculum encourages all students to realize their individual goals and motivates them to use their God-given abilities. Higher-level thinking skills are practiced with challenging research, speech, and writing assignments across the disciplines to prepare students for college success.

Mumbai: A week after a complaint was lodged regarding the theft of Kiran Rao's jewellery worth Rs 80 lakh, Mumbai police is questioning cook Farzana and her family that has served Aamir Khan for a decade.
The family of Farzana Sheikh has been left with a bitter experience as the 50-year-old who was booked by the police earlier is now being grilled about the jewellery that went missing from the actor's home.
As reported by Mid-Day, Farzana's mother Kesar Begum said, "Even during Ramadan, she never used to come home; we had to go meet her at Aamir's house. That's how loyal she is to her work. And this is what she is getting in return."
Source: Mid-Day
She even added that the police came to their home to carry out search operations. She said, "They even searched the containers in which we keep 'dal', but found nothing. I am scared, because I don't want the police to manhandle or hurt my daughter. I have faith in Farzana — she would never do something like this."

Syed Arbaaz Khan, son of Farzana, recalled, "He (Aamir) loves her cooking so much that he cannot do without it. She (Farzana) knows his diet perfectly, and cooks for him accordingly. Whether it was for Dhoom 3, for which she went to Chicago with him, or even for Dangal, for which she went to Punjab, my mother would follow him everywhere. He follows a very strict diet and breaks it only once a week and only so he can taste the kebabs that my mother makes."

To be able to analyze the fibromyalgia treatment options, you should first know what the fibromyalgia is.
Fibromyalgia is a very common disease produced most of all in women between 40 and 50 years. The cause is not clear yet, but what we know is the symptoms and their treatments. This disease is characterized by a continue pain in the muscles and in the nerves, along with chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression and insomnia. Of course the symptoms vary in every person, being possible to some patients to feel some symptoms more than others.
Even though, the amount of symptoms and the impact on the patients, this disease is not mortal, and there are many ways to treat it. There are three main groups of treatments, the medical, the physical and the psychological. The people experiencing fibromyalgia relief can get a solution here.
The medical treatments try to reduce the impact of the symptoms in the patients through pills and creams in some cases. The only problem with this kind of treatment is that the medication attacks every symptom individually, not as a whole, and as one medication helps to relieve a symptom it can cause a problem with other symptoms.
There is a group of drugs that between other of actions, can increase the levels
of serotonin, and improve symptoms. The mayor medication used is antidepressants in higher doses, so there is an analgesic activity and a release on pain. Read more.
The physical activity is a good way to treat the syndrome because prevents muscle atrophy. An appropriate routine of training can help to reduce the symptoms; the continuity of physical activities helps the patient to reduce the perception of pain and stress. The best treatment in this case is moderate physical activity such as walking, swimming or biking, also perform aerobics can be a good option. Check it out.
The psychological treatment is based on the cognitive behavioral therapy which is based on treat the psychological problems related to the disease. The objective is that the patient realizes that the pain is going to be part of his or her life, so the patient will know when the pain comes and what happen in the case, so the patient can learn about the situation and be able to enjoy the life again. The techniques used are relaxation therapies and other techniques that modify the behavior of the patient. Those therapies can also help with the sleep disorders which lead to irritability and depression. With the psychological treatment the most important thing is learn to control the emotions, many patients develop negative thoughts, anger, frustration, guilty, etc., caused by the constant pain. So if the patient can learn to control those feelings those symptoms disappear.
Besides the fibromyalgia syndrome do not have a cure, the wide variety of symptoms can be treated, the treatments acting separately are not enough efficient, but if the patient and the appropriate professional help combines all the treatments can be produced an increment of their lifestyle, as the treatment of any disease the results require time and constancy.
