If the title if this post didn't warn you, this post is intended for a mature audience. Or rather an audience over the age of 16. I just chose a random age. It's meant for grown ups. Don't read it with your children.
Get it? Got it? Good. Now on with it.
The names have been changed to protect the guilty.
MILF MILF Baby, MILF MILF Baby
All right stop, Collaborate and listen
MILFs are back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
MILFs with a breast pump daily and nightly
Will they ever stop? Yo – I don't know
Turn off the pump The MILFs will blow
To the extreme MILFs rock a babe like a pro.
Light up a room and milk a boob like a pro.
A group of women got together last Friday. We had laughs. We had wine. Lots of wine.
We decided that we as women needed to celebrate ourselves. We started by going around the table and stating things we are good at.
"I'm a good friend."
"I'm good at cleaning."
"I'm getting better at taking care of myself so I can be a MILF."
The conversation continued and the wine flowed like a river ….at least for me. I kept adding to my glass as did a new friend. Pinot Grigio. Or as I taught the ladies …. Greasy Penis. (My friend Snarkfest shared that with me. Easy way to remember when sending someone else out shopping for your wine. )
After we all made our way home and had a great night's sleep the conversation continued via group text.
Here's the list of hashtags we came up with :
Tonight was wonderful, awful, hard and beautiful.
The things we dealt with didn't define us tonight. We just were friends drinking wine.
We were just women.
Laughing together.
Supporting each other.

Mr. Simon Hughes: I have only three brief points. First, the hon. Member for Aylesbury (Mr. Lidington) has made a perfectly reasonable point.
Secondly, new clause 5, which was not selected for debate--I make no criticism of the selection--goes wider than new clause 4, by addressing a point that is often
My third point relates broadly to damages and emerges from the argument made by the hon. Gentleman. The inconsistency of damages is a national issue: constituents have pointed out to me that if a relative or dependant dies as a result of criminal injury and if one chooses to make a claim under the criminal injuries compensation scheme, one is entitled to a sum of--if memory serves--no more than £10,000, and possibly as little as £5,000.
Mr. Gerald Bermingham (St. Helens, South): It is £3,750.
Mr. Hughes: It is certainly an extremely small sum. The problem is that, at the same time, we read in our newspapers about damages of hundreds of thousands of pounds that are awarded in the civil courts and elsewhere for comments that have caused offence or for constructive dismissal.
The matter may be one for the Cabinet Office or the joined-up government people--whoever they are--because a cross-departmental approach is needed to ensure some degree of fairness in the award of damages. I know that the courts are given guidelines, but damages can be awarded by other agencies. I simply want to draw attention to public unhappiness about the increasing gap between awards made in compensation for serious matters and the huge damages awarded for matters that, in the scheme of things, are relatively minor.
There is a general public policy interest to be addressed and I should be grateful if Ministers gave it their consideration. I hope that someone will write to me and the hon. Member for Aylesbury about how Government Departments intend to approach the matter.
Mr. Mike O'Brien: I have listened to the comments made about the need to reflect on the nature of payments made to victims of racial discrimination and others. I agree that we do not want to enter into a compensation culture, but missing from the arguments made so far--uncharacteristically so, in the case of the hon. Member for Aylesbury (Mr. Lidington)--has been the expression of any concern about victims. Should victims not be compensated if they have been discriminated against? Of course they should; they should have the right to some type of remedy.
It is quite right that we do not want to get into a situation in which vexatious litigants, who are a pest in the legal system, are able to bring frivolous cases before the courts. To some extent, we have to rely on our judges to be robust in dealing with vexatious litigants, and on the Legal Aid Board to ensure that people do not receive legal aid if they are seen to be merely vexatious. I think that most hon. Members are aware of people, in their constituencies or elsewhere, who have sought to abuse entry to the courts.
We need, however, to get the balance right. There is every reason for Parliament to be concerned about getting the balance right between the victim's right to receive some form of compensation and the need to ensure that money from the public purse is spent properly.
Mechanisms already exist to provide annually the type of information dealt with in new clause 4. The new clause would lead to duplication, bureaucracy and costs, particularly if police had to provide extensive information on the reasons why particular types of damages were allocated by a court in a particular case, which may involve issues in addition to racial discrimination. I am reluctant unnecessarily to impose such a burden on police, who are already required to do much of that work under section 95 reports.
Section 46 of the Race Relations Act 1976 already requires the Commission for Racial Equality to produce an annual report that includes a general survey of developments in the issues that fall within the scope of the commission's functions. The commission's reports usually contain details of awards of damages in cases that it represents. Additionally, those reports are laid before the House; indeed, I have just approved the laying of the most recent report.
As explained in the Bill's explanatory notes, in cases represented by the commission in 1997-98, awards averaged approximately £1,000, settlements averaged approximately £2,000, and pre-litigation settlements settled by commission officials averaged approximately £6,000. We would expect the commission to continue to report on damages awarded in cases that it represents, including cases brought under new provisions outlawing race discrimination under the Bill.
Although the Bill does not provide financial remedies in respect of the positive duty in clause 2 to promote race equality, again we would expect the commission's annual report to cover any enforcement action that it has taken in the year in question under the new provisions. The Government therefore feel that the current reporting requirements in section 46 of the 1976 Act already provide for what is necessary and appropriate.
Mr. David Winnick (Walsall, North): Is it not alarming--far more alarming than the issue of compensation payments to which the hon. Member for Aylesbury (Mr. Lidington) referred--that public bodies continue to be found to be discriminating, and, therefore, that there continue to be genuine cases of discrimination? Surely the whole emphasis of the Bill should be that, in this day and age, race discrimination and gender discrimination--which we are not debating today--simply should not occur in public bodies.
Mr. O'Brien: Although, by and large, our public authorities do not discriminate, there have been cases in which they have been found to have done so. That is regrettable. The Bill's underlying basis, as my hon. Friend rightly said, is the attempt to end unacceptable discrimination in our public authorities, and to ensure that we have public authorities that treat people with the respect that they deserve and to which they are entitled.
Mr. Hughes: The Minister mentioned the commission's annual report, which many hon. Members are familiar with and many of us receive. Will it list all the awards of damages or only a summary of those awards? If it contains only a summary, will information be provided to enable people to locate information on the full awards?
Mr. O'Brien: As I understand it, there is a summary in the report. It does not list all the awards, because I suspect that some of them are the subject of legal confidentiality. Some may be out-of-court settlements that contain certain clauses in the contracts. I do not know the extent to which the Commission for Racial Equality provides information on the awards, but if the hon. Gentleman wishes me to find out, I can certainly do so. However, I have always found the CRE to be very open in providing information and background briefings on individual and general issues to Members of Parliament.
Mr. Lidington: I was somewhat disappointed that the Minister underrated the deterrent impact on public authorities and private organisations of the costs of litigation. One of the most unsatisfactory aspects of several recent highly publicised cases has been that some public bodies have made public statements that they would agree to an out-of-court settlement involving the payments of many thousands of pounds of taxpayers' money, not because they have conceded that they have discriminated--they continue to assert that they have not--but because they could not afford the time and the money that would have to be spent on contesting litigation if matters were to proceed to law. That is not satisfactory for anyone.
I do not dissent from the view of the hon. Member for Walsall, North (Mr. Winnick) that public authorities in particular should set the lead and resist racial discrimination. As far as they can, they should ensure that all their conduct and practices are designed to prevent such discrimination taking place. However, it is also true that different judgments in the court cases involving the definition of indirect discrimination that have taken place since 1976 have determined the scope of such discrimination in different ways. Therefore, it is possible for an organisation--or an individual--to believe that it has acted in a way that complies with the law only to find that, after legal argument, the judgment is that certain practices are tantamount to indirect discrimination under the Race Relations Act 1976 and need to be changed. There is some uncertainty in the current statute.
I was grateful to the Minister for reminding us that the Commission for Racial Equality has a duty to publish a report each year and that that report includes at least some information on the level of compensation awards. I hope that it is a matter to which the chairman of the commission and his team will continue to give their attention. As a result of this debate and those that took place in Committee, I hope that Ministers will also continue to keep the matter under review. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the motion.
Motion and clause, by leave, withdrawn.

Rogers and Hammerstein Theatricals Partners with CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL
Chicken Soup for the Soul is coming to the stage! The world's favorite storyteller, with more than 250 books in print, is bringing a select group of its 20,000-plus stories to life through live theater for audiences of all ages. Chicken Soup for the Soul has teamed up with Stellation Entertainment to adapt a wide variety of diverse stories to be performed for live audiences. These shows will be distributed worldwide by theatrical licensing agent, R&H Theatricals, a division of Rodgers & Hammerstein, An Imagem Company, for performances by schoolchildren, amateurs and professional performers.
The stories will be adapted into innovative one-act musicals ranging from 15 minutes to 45 minutes in length. These mini-musicals can be presented alone or grouped together to create an event around a life lesson, age group or theme. Schools will be able to choose shows with a variety of social themes and casting options, creating a customized production to fit their specific needs.
"For many years our books and stories have been important resources for teachers in their classrooms and we are increasingly focused on creating first-class extraordinary educational materials. We recently introduced a proactive bullying prevention program based on our stories known as 'Chicken Soup for the Soul Hallway Heroes' that is now in use in more than 20 states and we plan to continue to introduce new education programs over time," said William J. Rouhana, Jr., chief executive officer of Chicken Soup for the Soul.
"Many middle school and high school teachers have contacted us to put on Chicken Soup for the Soul Theater Productions," continued Rouhana. "We have been looking for the right partner for our live theater efforts for over a year. We can't imagine any stronger group than Stellation Entertainment and Rodgers & Hammerstein to bring our stories to life on school stages."
"We believe that that this new format will open up many performance opportunities beyond the standard fall and spring musicals. Every year we will be releasing a series of new titles to expand the catalogue," said William Meade, president of Stellation Entertainment.
"We are pleased to partner with an extraordinary global brand like Chicken Soup for the Soul. Their stories have brought laughter, tears and a sense of belonging to millions of people. We are thrilled to be working with Stellation Entertainment to adapt the Chicken Soup for the Soul message for the stage," said Imagem chief executive officer, Bill Gaden.
The first round of shows will be released worldwide by R&H Theatricals in 2017.
Chicken Soup for the Soul, the world's favorite and most recognized storyteller, publishes the famous Chicken Soup for the Soul book series. With well over 100 million books sold to date in the U.S. and Canada alone, more than 250 titles, and translations into more than 40 languages, "chicken soup for the soul" is one of the world's best-known phrases and is regularly referenced in pop culture. Today, 23 years after it first began sharing happiness, inspiration and hope through its books, this socially conscious company continues to publish a new title a month, but has also evolved beyond the bookstore with super premium pet food, television shows and movies, podcasts, and a variety of other digital content and licensed products, all inspired by true stories, as it continues "changing the world one story at a time®."

Build your kiddo's brain (and yours while you're at it!) with these top Superfoods.
Brain foods are foods that are high in antioxidants, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. Eat them daily for good health and smarts!
- Avocado - It's actually a fruit, you know! And this power fruit encourages healthy blood flow which helps with healthy brain function. Eating a quarter of an avocado a day is a great way to up brain power.
- Berries - One of the top Superfoods anywhere on the planet! They're packed with antioxidants to help prevent memory loss and reduce the effects of stress on the brain. Acai berries, blueberries and strawberries have been shown to slow the decline of cognitive functions as we age.
- Eggs - The choline in egg yolks help with memory and the entire egg is a good source of protein which is key to better cognitive abilities.
- Fish - One of the best sources of essential fatty acids (EFAs), fish contains the things our brains can't function without. There are two types of EFAs, omega-6 and omega-3. We get lots of the omega-6 variety from eggs, nuts and green vegetables. But omega-3s are harder to come by, except when we turn to fish. They're found in high numbers in wild salmon, sardines, mackerel and other deep-water fish.
- Nuts - It's the essential fatty acids in nuts that helps your brain to communicate, cell to cell. Plus they're packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Almonds, brazil nuts, hazelnuts and walnuts are particularly perfect.


text: The fourth LP from Nathan Williams does for Nineties punk pop what his girlfriend Bethany "Best Coast" Cosentino has done for Sixties girl-group pop: rewires it for a new generation of Spotify-surfing headphone junkies. Starting with heavenly bells and tight-wound guitar slashing, his stoner minimalism gets ambition – there's even a cello! Self-loathing and suicidal tendencies swarm; Iggy Pop is evoked on the semi-unplugged sorta love song "Dog," and Jeff Mangum- and Kurt Cobain-style angst haunt the title track. Frequent Nirvana echoes flirt with overkill. But no one has ever channeled that band's bubblegum nihilism better.

Friends and Such
I went to small group tonight and sat in an apartment (a real life married people apartment) and played games and ate pasta and talked about life with people I know and like. It was sweet.
I forgot how awesome it is to share food and fellowship and just talk and care about one another. To share and have things shared with you.
It's Tuesday, but it feels like Monday, and work just crawled by today. How refreshing and wonderful to have people to go and refresh myself among.
It's like yoga, but social, though still with the same effect: I'm sleepy and wouldn't mind melting into bed, drowning in coconut lotion and dreaming about what to make next with my brand new, very spiffy, Kitchenaid mixer.
Over and out.

Laurie Hernandez and Madison Kocian casually throw gold-winning first pitches
Olympians Laurie Hernandez and Madison Kocian brought their outstanding gymnastics skills to the baseball diamond on Saturday and blew us all away.
The gold medal winners were given the honor of throwing the first pitches for the New York Mets and Texas Rangers, and as you can imagine, they did not disappoint.
When 16-year-old Laurie Hernandez took to the plate at Citi Field on Saturday night, she busted out some acrobatics to impress the New York Mets.
PHOTOS: Check out Laurie and Madison's pitching skills
See Gallery
While wearing her custom Mets jersey, Hernandez removed her gold medal before rocking an aerial cartwheel and her signature smile. Here's a video of the casual pitch in case you missed it:
Now that she's conquered the baseball field, we're looking forward to seeing Hernandez bring her skills to the dance floor, as she joins this year's cast of Dancing with the Stars.
Final Five member Madison Kocian also got a chance to throw the first pitch on Saturday for her favorite MLB team, the Texas Rangers.
In an interview with SportsDay, Kocian — a die-hard Rangers fan — explained that her dad was at a Rangers game when her mother went into labor with her, and she even ranked getting an autographed bat from Adrian Beltre over getting a hug from Beyoncé (woah, baby).
Like Hernandez, some impressive acrobatics accompanied Kocian's pitch as the 19-year-old did a handstand and walkover before tossing the ball down the plate to Jeff Banister.

Lauren and Nathan are two amazing, free-spirited, and laid back people in love. I first met them when they still lived in San Francisco. They moved to Taos, New Mexico in January (almost accidentally!) when they were visiting family and just ended up staying in that wonderful little town of art and culture in every corner. Since Nathan is an artist, he created his Art Den there.
I arrived in Taos a few days before the wedding and I got the pleasure of seeing where they lived, their gallery, and all the little things that make this place so charming. About two days before the wedding, Lauren and Nathan and their friends had a small bonfire of sage in a teepee that Nathan built. We were under the moon, which was so bright against the clear sky it created shadows out in the forest where we were.
Two days later, at the El Monte Sagrado, Lauren and Nathan walked barefoot into the Sacred Circle and married each other under the beautiful aspen arbor that Nathan built. One of the greatest moments during the ceremony was the expression Lauren had on her face when she saw for the first time the wedding ring Nathan had picked out as he put it on her finger. Throughout the day, there were long hugs, laughs, and sage (not to mention the incredible dancing! Lauren and many of her friends are talented dancers). I wish I could write more about their wedding, but it's better for the images to do the talking.
It's amazing to recognize two people so obviously meant for each other. People aspire to have the kind of love they have. Enjoy.

A sake lounge and restaurant in the Lower East Side, Sakamai serves fantastic Japanese food, cocktails, and Japanese craft beer. It's the place you'll want to take guests or a date to when you're looking for a unique and cozy place.
When you sit down, instead of asking for drinks first, you MUST order this. The "Egg on egg on egg" is sea urchin, American sturgeon caviar over a bed of fluffy scrambled eggs. Not only is it beautiful in appearance, the combination of flavors and textures is phenomenal, sensory experience.
From left to right following the first photo is the uni crostini (torched uni with Parmeggiano Reggiano flakes), Foie Gras Chawan Mushi (with dashi glaze), Tasmanian Ocean Trout with a mushroom rice pot (this is part of a larger dish and a seasonal dessert. The trout dish was part of a larger dish or pot, and it takes 50 minutes to prep and cook. The Uonuma Koshihikari rice, ikura, mitsuba and Tokyo scallions were carefully taken from the original dish and intricately assembled into the smaller serving bowls seen above. I recommend that you try this dish if you enjoy a good fish and are looking for something on the more "traditional" Japanese side. We had a bottle of sake to go with our dinner. Unfortunately I forgot to take a photo of the bottle that was kept on ice for us.
With most, if not all dishes, drink sake. Refer to the detailed guide for all tasting notes or ask the server for help with your taste profile and his/her recommended food pairings. The cocktails at Sakamai were created by mixing master Shingo Gokan from cocktail den Angel's Share in East Village. If you've been to Angel's Share before, you'll recognize the high-quality craftsmanship and refreshing taste of the cocktails here that are reminiscient of the ones at the popular Japanese speakeasy.
For my first complete meal here, there wasn't any part of dinner I didn't love. So if you enjoy Japanese cuisine and sake especially, then you'll have a great time dining here as well. To find out how intriguing it really is, you'll have to go out and try it.

Seattle's packed with Wi-Fi spots
Students' map access points around downtown.
Seattle Times business reporter
Philip Howard has always thought of Seattle as a well-connected city. Now he has the map to prove it.
Howard, a communications assistant professor at the University of Washington, sent his class of 100 students downtown recently to map the city's wireless landscape by locating as many Internet access points as possible.
What they found was a city practically oozing with geekiness. Within two square miles of Seattle's downtown core, they located thousands of wireless networks. Their work helped produce a map showing the details of 5,225 networks in the city.
The majority of access points are inside private businesses or homes, but public hot spots can also be found in libraries or cafes, including at the Seattle Central Library or the fee-based T-Mobile USA service inside Starbucks.
Wi-Fi, or wireless fidelity, hot spots are places where people with laptop computers or other portable devices can access the Internet. They can move about within a few hundred feet of an antenna that has a wired connection to the Internet. The antenna then beams the connection through the air using unregulated radio spectrum.
Groups of mostly tech novices from the UW cruised around the city in an exercise known to the tech savvy as "wardriving." One student drove slowly down the street while another worked on a laptop computer with special software that scans for network connections. Two other students took turns holding a global-positioning system device that recorded the exact location of every connection they found.
The students used a program from NetStumbler.com, which provides free software to hunt Wi-Fi signals and lists available hot spots around the world. Since 2001 NetStumbler hobbyists have used the software to locate more than 2 million wireless networks, said NetStumbler.com founder Wayne Slavin.
"It's an interesting exercise and it's fun, like a real-life Pac-Man," he said. "You're gobbling up all these hot spots. Every time your laptop detects one, it makes a noise just like the game."
The practice is legal but somewhat controversial because a small number of unscrupulous wardrivers are out to find unprotected networks to use for illegal file copying or to surf the Internet on someone else's dime.
Howard says his monthlong project was aimed at giving students hands-on experience learning about the role of new media technologies. It also revealed some interesting details about the culture of wireless activity in Seattle.
Besides illustrating the general explosion in wireless networks, students found that more than half of the networks in the city were open, meaning people paying for them didn't bother to restrict their access with a password or deliberately kept them open.
"There's clearly a lot of people who've decided to share their connection, even if it's just 100 meters outside their living room window," Howard said. "Enough of these overlapping access points creates a very wired city."
Students found that a number of Seattle residents seem to want to share their Internet connections but discourage malicious activity. They changed the names of their wireless networks to phrases like "Open to share, no porn please" or "Free access, be nice."
Some parts of Seattle have dozens of wireless connections all within the same block, said Drew Celley, creator of WiFiMaps.com, who is using the UW data to publish detailed maps of Seattle's wireless landscape. The corner of Third Avenue and Columbia Street, for example, has some of the densest Wi-Fi coverage in the city.
Having enough Wi-Fi access points allows people to stay connected while they roam throughout a building. But too many overlapping signals can cause interference. And leaving wireless networks open poses security risks.
One reason for their proliferation is that setting up such networks has become easier and cheaper than ever before. Wireless networking kits can be had for less than $200.
"With home users, they simply take them out of the box and use them, which is great," Celley said. "The problem is some bad guy could be sitting out front and downloading kiddie porn."
As the use of Wi-Fi and other forms of wireless networking grows, having some data about residents' wireless activity could help cities and telecommunications companies work out questions of access and security, as well as discover new applications for the technology.
Seattle Wireless, a group trying to develop a wireless broadband community network, is using the UW data to determine where to place links on its network that use frequency most efficiently, said Peter Yorke, one of the group's founders.
Another possible application involves using Wi-Fi access points to help mobile devices identify their locations inside a building, where GPS services don't work.
"Because Seattle is such a wired city, there's clear opportunity for people who want to design software based on location," Howard said. "You have a lot of potential for innovation."

Professor Brian Domitrovic in the Wall Street Journal:
Gross Domestic Happiness?
Why the French want to redefine economic growth.
supply-side economics over coffee
Professor Brian Domitrovic in the Wall Street Journal:
Why the French want to redefine economic growth.
Professor Brian Domitrovic has a very impressive article in the Investor's Business Daily:
New York's Jack Kemp took the opportunity to reveal economic research that showed that government spending causes people to produce less and thus stood to exacerbate the inflation problem. He also pointed to studies showing that tax cuts shrink the size of the black market.
A minor victory again, perhaps. But the arguments proved so resonant to members that the next year, 1978, Kemp's own 30% tax cut passed the House twice and the Senate once — this in the same 95th Congress with its Democratic supermajorities. Kemp's tax cut was not made law only because of the intransigence of the president and the congressional leadership.
– – – – –
When the electorate in November 1980 charged Ronald Reagan and his large Republican contingent in Congress with solving the horrendous stagflation problem that had been gripping the nation for years, Kemp's tax cut got passed within a few months.
By the time that tax cut fully phased in, in early 1983, the economy had embarked on what would prove a 25-year run of growth without any inflation trade-off, a quarter-century of unqualified prosperity that remains as epic a chapter as any in the industrial history of nations.
It is inconceivable that the Reagan Revolution would have occurred had the Republicans, in their hour of inconsequence in 1976 and 1977, not begun political and intellectual preparations for what they would do in power once the electoral cycle favored them again.

Troon Vineyard: An Oregon Winegrowing Heritage Vineyard
Troon Vineyard has over 40 years of history in Southern Oregon; the original vines were planted in 1972 by Dick Troon and for several years he sold the grapes to local wineries. Deciding the real solution to the business was creating his own wines Dick converted his barn to a winery. Many stories and legends have been told about Dick Troon whose eccentricities and charisma worked well for a displaced Scotsman. For deep in his heart his Scottish heritage was the way in which he lived. Troon Vineyard was originally a cattle grazing property and after a number of years and after finding out that wine grapes produced much greater income per acre he set about getting educated about grapes and wine. He planted, experimented, cursed, re-planted and eventually came to a conclusion that the grapes grown on Troon Vineyard were the best in the world. Dick Troon loved the beautiful Applegate Valley, the people and his winery. He often said Troon Vineyard was the center of the universe and to him it was.

Sunflowers, with their bright yellow petals and dark, central cones, are some of the most iconic flowers in the American landscape. Many types of coneflowers mimic the cheerful look of the sunflower, providing a similar look for native flower gardeners.
Recommended Flowers
To achieve the bright, happy look of a sunflower garden, there are several types of coneflowers that make ideal additions or replacements for the traditional sunflower. Some recommended coneflowers include the yellow coneflower, Tennessee coneflower, black-eyed Susan and the eastern purple coneflower.
Coneflowers mimic the look of sunflowers with 10 petals surrounding a large, darker central cone. The yellow coneflower (Echinacea paradoxa) features bright yellow rays and a dark brown center. It grows to an average height of 2 1/2 feet, according the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. The Tennessee coneflower (Echinacea tennesseensis) is well-known for its purple blooms and is one of the rarest wildflowers. Planting it may help increase the survival of the plant. The black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta var. pulcherrima) features drooping orange to yellow petals and a dark brown cone that extends above flower's face. The purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea) is a similar color the Tennessee coneflower but features drooping petals like the black-eyed Susan.
Planting coneflowers in the garden helps create the look of a prairie wildflower meadow and also provides medicinal benefits. The echinacea flowers can be used as an antibiotic, according to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Echinacea flowers and the black-eyed Susan attract hummingbirds, butterflies and other birds to the yard.

A guardianship may be obtained to give you the legal right to care for someone who is close to you such as a minor who may or may not be a blood relative. This process can be complex, and the assistance of experienced legal counsel is the key to success. At the Law Offices of James V. Sansone, we are committed to helping family members navigate the legal system efficiently and effectively.
Guardianships Vs. Adoptions
A guardianship simply grants you the right to make legal decisions on behalf of another person. When it comes to minors, this right is sometimes referred to as a custodianship. Although this will grant you all of the same legal rights a parent has, this process differs from adoption in that the termination of parental rights is not a requirement. As such, disputes rarely arise during guardianship proceedings. However, it is still recommended that you have the assistance of a family law attorney to help guide you through probate court.
Seeking Guardianships
A guardianship is not something that is automatically granted. In the case of an adult with special needs, it must be shown that the adult is unable or incapable of making important legal decisions on his or her behalf.
If you are seeking guardianship of a minor from one or both of the parents, you must be able to show that the parent(s) is unable to care for the child. When you come to our firm, we will thoroughly review your case and inform you of the options that may be available to you.
Contact Our Sonoma Child Custody Attorney
If you are seeking custodianship of a child or wish to intervene on behalf of an adult with special needs, we are here to help. Send us an online inquiry or call 707-623-1875 to schedule an initial consultation to discuss your situation.

Terrorism is the use of force, fear and/or violence by a person or group to intimidate or coerce societies or governments. Terrorism often has political or ideological motives. These attacks can take many forms and could happen anytime and in any place.
Types of terrorism include:
- Biological Attack
- Chemical Attack
- Cyberattack
- Explosion
- Nuclear Devices
- Radiological Dispersion Device (RDD)
Throughout human history, there have been many threats to the security of nations. These threats have brought about large-scale losses of life, the destruction of property, widespread illness and injury, the displacement of large numbers of people and devastating economic loss.
Recent technological advances and ongoing political unrest are components of the increased risk to national security.
If a terrorist attack occurs, you will be given instructions from public officials. In the meantime, there are a variety of steps you can take to keep your family safe.
Run. Hide. Fight®
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security defines an "active shooter" as an "individual actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a confined and populated area." If you ever find yourself in an active shooter situation, remember to run, hide and (as a last resort) fight.
- Have an escape route and plan in mind.
- Leave your belongings behind.
- Keep your hands visible.
- Hide in an area out of the shooter's view.
- Block entry to your hiding place and lock the doors.
- Silence your cell phone.
- As a last resort and only when your life is in imminent danger.
- Attept to incapacitate the shooter.
- Act with physical aggression and throw items at the active shooter.

If You See Something, Say Something™
If You See Something, Say Something™ is a national campaign to raise public awareness of the indicators of terrorism and terrorism-related crime, and the importance of reporting suspicious activity to state and local law enforcement. Informed, alert communities play a critical role in keeping the Whole Community safe.
Public safety is everyone's responsibility. If you see suspicious activity, report it to local law enforcement or a person of authority.
Describe specifically what you observed, including:
- Who or what you saw;
- When you saw it;
- Where it occurred; and
- Why it appeared suspicious
Suspicious activity is any observed behavior that could indicate terrorism or terrorism-related crime. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Unusual items or situations: A vehicle is parked in an odd location, a package/luggage is unattended, a window/door is open that is usually closed, or other out-of-the-ordinary situations occur.
- Eliciting information: A person questions individuals at a level beyond curiosity about a building's purpose, operations, security procedures and/or personnel, shift changes, etc.
- Observation/surveillance: Someone pays unusual attention to facilities or buildings beyond a casual or professional interest. This includes extended loitering without explanation (particularly in concealed locations); unusual, repeated, and/or prolonged observation of a building (e.g., with binoculars or video camera); taking notes or measurements; counting paces; sketching floor plans, etc.
Some of these activities could be innocent; it's up to law enforcement to determine whether the behavior warrants investigation. The activities above are not all-inclusive, but have been compiled based on studies of pre-operational aspects of both successful and thwarted terrorist events over several years.

Bayern are sixth in the table and lag 17 points behind leaders Dortmund, but are set to welcome back injured stars Robben, Germany veteran Miroslav Klose and striker Ivica Olic after the Christmas break.

The Bundesliga finishes for the year on Sunday evening with Bayern's game and coach Louis van Gaal wants three points from Stuttgart to close the gap.

The champions are expected to launch a title surge next season, especially with chief playmaker Robben due back in January.

The Dutchman has been out since July's World Cup with a torn hamstring, but resumed training on Thursday and said he is looking forward to his anticipated Bundesliga return against Wolfsburg on January 15.

"I'm part of the team again," the Dutch ace enthused after his first session back with the squad. "I've worked towards this for a long time, being back on the pitch with the lads is an indescribable feeling."

After seeing Stuttgart win 5-1 in Europa League action on Thursday night against Danish club Odense, coach Bruno Labbadia faces Bayern in his first league game in charge since taking over from Jens Keller, who was sacked last weekend.

Although coach Jurgen Klopp refuses to talk about Dortmund winning their first Bundesliga title since 2002, his young side are 11-points clear of second-placed Leverkusen.

They wrap up the first half of the season on Saturday against Frankfurt and face rumours Germany defender Mats Hummels is being courted by Bayern with a view to a transfer over in the January break.

Frankfurt have the league's top scorer Theofanis Gekas, who has netted 13 goals this season, in their side, but with 39 goals already this season, Dortmund are flying high.

Leverkusen are at home to fifth-placed Freiburg on Sunday and will be without Germany goalkeeper Rene Adler, who has a knee injury.

Fourth-placed Mainz are at Hamburg-based St Pauli on Saturday with coach Thomas Tuchel desperate to avoid a third-straight defeat.

Mid-table Bremen are home to Kaiserslautern with 34-year-old captain Torsten Frings admitting he is considering retiring at the end of the season when his contract expires.

Bremen are without striker Hugo Almeida, who is suspended for a red card, while ex-Chelsea star Claudio Pizarro is expected to play.

Hoffenheim are at Wolfsburg on Saturday with both sides facing speculation involving Bayern.

While Munich captain Mark van Bommel has been linked to a January switch to Wolfsburg, Hoffenheim defensive midfielder Luiz Gustavo is reported to be a target to replace the Dutchman in Bayern.

Hoffenheim are without midfielder Tobias Weis who has a thigh injury.

After their terrible start to the season which saw them lose their first four games, Schalke 04 are up to mid-table and chasing their third-straight win when they play Cologne on Saturday.

Coach Felix Magath has reacted calmly to the latest rumours about goalkeeper Manuel Neuer being set to join Bayern in 2012.

"Speculation in the papers doesn't interest me," he said.

"I am only concerned with something if it is put to me directly."

Cologne are without forward Milivoje Novakovic who has a thigh injury.

BREAKING: Reps Adjourn Public Hearing On Ceding Of Waterways
The House of Representatives has adjourned the public hearing on the ceding of the nation's waterways to some foreign companies till January 9, 2018.
The hearing was adjourned after the proceedings which lasted for about 20 minutes on Thursday at the National Assembly in Abuja, Nigeria's capital.
The House Committee on Public Petitions, led by Honourable Nkem-Obota Uzoma from Abia State, is probing the planned $195million concession of the nation's waterways to foreign companies.
In the course of its investigation, the committee plans to question the Nigeria Navy, Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) and Federal Ministry of Transportation.
At today's hearing, the Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, and the Director General of NIMASA, Dakuku Peterside, were among those in attendance.
The hearing was, however, adjourned after the committee was informed that the Navy had not received its invitation and was not prepared to respond to questions.

Gay Marriage Legalized in America!
On Friday, gay marriage became legal across the nation of the United States of America. All 50 states will now recognize, as well as issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. All day, I was jumping for joy and processing the news as best I knew how. At first, the feeling was similar to the shock you experience when someone close to you dies--you just can't believe it. Is this real life!? This historic moment gave all individuals (some famous) the chance to state their beliefs, in blog posts, Twitter shoutouts and personal declarations. Consequently, I learned a LOT about my friends, family, acquaintances and the celebrities I follow.
Slowly, America had been legalizing gay marriage on an individual state-by-state basis, but those of us within the movement (and also those opposed to it) thought it would take a considerable amount of time for us to reach full inclusion of this law, and maybe not even in our lifetime. Once the fight was taken to the Supreme Court (SCOTUS), we knew something huge was about to happen.
Included in my later discoveries was the realization that some of my friends who vocally support the LGBTQ community were not too thrilled or phased by this turn of events. Many radical liberals who argue for LGBTQ rights forget the initial fight for freedom that gay, lesbian and bisexual individuals spearheaded for decades ever since the Stonewall riots.
Some people argue that this advancement is not an advancement for trans people, nor does it really matter for the LGBTQ community. Really? No matter what legal gender trans individuals might hold, they are now allowed to marry whoever they want with whatever gender they identify. Gay marriage IS trans marriage. It is the sentiment of equal opportunity of marriage given to everyone with any gender or sexuality.
Disregarding the progress our community has made when you are part of the community is biting the hand that fed you. Your elders, the wise sages of the LGBTQ rights movement made this moment in time possible. Yes, we still have hundreds of trans women of color being senselessly murdered, and LGBTQ people are (still) not warmly welcomed in many places, but let's pause. Appreciate the progress our country made this week. Now let's press forward with the work still to be done.
Congratulations, America and my fellow LGBTQ family. Freedom is here!
Take a note from our history books: love always wins.
"We've got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn't matter with me now, because I've been to the mountaintop. I'm not worried about anything, I'm not fearing any man! Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord!" -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Try Dieting To Be Fit
Instead of merely lifting heavy weights and doing lots of cardiovascular exercises like running, it would be best for you to try dieting. Of course, if you won't control your food intake, you may end up being fat. When you're exhausted from doing lots of heavy work, your brain would ask you to provide it with more than the energy that it lost. This is the reason why many who are working on their body by going to the gym eat more than usual. If you'd consume more than what your system requires, you may become fat or, specifically, overweight or obese. No matter how strong you are, you should consider going on a diet.
Plus, when you would, you may actually double the positive effects that you experience with exercising since you may be able to supply your system with the right nutrients to help you perform and recover better. It's also in dieting wherein you could totally get rid of fats and make your body lean enough so that your bulging muscles would show. On the other hand, when you'd go on a diet, it is important that you consider several important things so that you could later on achieve your goals and at all times keep yourself safe from harm. For some dieting tips that you may be interested in, keep reading.
Before you try any diet, it is important that you do extensive reading. Search for different types of diet plans and then compare them with one another. Also, while you're doing that, you should bear in mind your preferences and limitations.
After all, if the diet that you're interested in includes the intake of foods that you're allergic to then you should just pick another plan. It is vital that you select the kind that not only results to weight loss but involves the alteration of your hormones. That's because hormones or the chemicals within your body that influence the activities of the cells in you are the ones that you should alter and use to get your goals. If you're interested, you could try the HCG diet. To know more about it, check out the P3 to Life website. On the other hand, whichever plan you select, make sure that you do some reading and find out what the side effects of it are since there are usually adverse reactions to trying methods in dieting that involve the use of synthetic products.
Whatever you do and no matter how tempting it is to do, you should never starve yourself. It is important that you follow a diet that would let you reduce your food intake and have substitutes for specific items that you usually eat. You should never consider starvation since such will only lead to health complications.
Plus, starving yourself would ruin your metabolism since the body has this defense mechanism that lets it protect itself by reducing the fat loss rate of a starving person. Plus, when choosing a diet method, you should go for that which has recommendations for the plateau phase and that can lead to permanent weight loss since there would come times wherein your body would be defensive and you simply do not want to get back the unwanted fats that you removed on you, respectively.

The idea of painting a home can be very exciting, but it also needs to be carefully decided on to make the most out of your time and resources. It's best to have a few things in mind which you can consult with your painting contractor, so that you can all see what's best for your home. Whether you want a simple repainting or add a bit more life to your home, there are a lot of house painting ideas that you can apply for this project. We've listed a few things about interior house paint colours, so here are a few more tips which should help you out with your paint job.
Pick a colour pairing
Choose hues that are neighbours in the colour wheel. For instance, if you pick a warm shade of green, you can pair it with a cool yellow shade. This combination almost never fails and works in any room of the house, even ones with wainscoting or trim, which can easily lend itself to this kind of treatment. If you want to stick to more traditional house painting ideas, you can pair up two bright colours. You can also decide on soft hues with a mix of either gray or brown if you want a more conservative look.
Add little details with some paint
If you're not sure about committing to major house painting ideas, you can start off by painting two thin stripes on a wall in a bedroom to see if you like how it looks. If you decide that it fits, you can go and apply it to all the other walls in the room to create the full effect. If you don't think a mural is a good idea, try painting on some object or item that will add a simple detail to the room. There are a lot of ways you can spruce up a room with paint, and it doesn't have to be a full-on repainting or mural painting job.
Paint a chalkboard wall
Chalkboard paint is not new, but as of late, many people have been turning to it for creative house painting ideas. While it's black and can seem off-putting at first, it can be balanced out by the rest of the room where you plan to paint it. Whether you're painting a panel in your kitchen to list your groceries, a wall in your home office to serve as your planner or calendar, or a part of your bedroom to serve as some sort of creative outlet, chalkboard paint will allow you to achieve a distinguishably unique look for any corner of your home.
Enlarge small spaces with horizontal stripes
If you have a guest bathroom, den, or receiving area that's a wee bit smaller than other areas of your home, painting them with horizontal stripes is one of the few house painting ideas you can apply to give them the illusion of spaciousness. Paint wide horizontal lines using two analogous hues to push out the walls of these areas. You can add accents like small black furnishings or even a mirror to make it seem even larger and also sophisticated.
Paint an oversized pattern on a wall
Think of this is as something like more personalized wallpaper. The idea is to start drawing something on paper and enlarging it on your wall. You can use chalk to sketch it and then paint over it for a dramatic effect. You can choose what kind of pattern will work best in the room you decide to do it on, be it flowers, leaves, swirls, or other shapes. This is among the house painting ideas that you can apply to one of your smallest rooms first before doing it in your living room or dining room.
Use stamps or stencils to make rooms more interesting
This is one of those classic house painting ideas that never fail to add visual interest to different areas of the home. After applying your base coat which will then serve as a backdrop, you can use a stamp or stencil to create a pattern that will be painted using a contrasting colour. You can even have two different patterns that will alternate and work with your base coat. This will add a dimension of fun in any room and definitely liven up the space wherever you decide to do it.
These are just a few house painting ideas that will surely make your home even more quaint and cozy. Choose a few that will best represent you and your family, check out a few more that you think may work, and consult with your painting contractor about which works best for different areas and what kind of paint to buy for these ideas. Most importantly, make sure you'll want to live with these designs for a long time.

This book should really be called How Novels Work (though John Mullan bagged that title first) or even How Literary Novels Work because Wood's concern is not with short stories or plays but with the novel and with a particular kind of novel at that. Wood believes the history of the novel has been a progression towards a particular goal. Indeed, he says: "The history of the novel can be told as the development of free indirect style." I'm no expert in literary theory but that strikes me as a subjective view and one of the frustrations of this book is that Wood frequently makes assertions without acknowledging that there may be a dissenting school of thought.
Wood's generalisations are problematic only because of his tendency to switch between academic and personal voices when it suits him. Perhaps he does so when he assumes his readers will know the territory or perhaps he's shrinking from the challenge. I don't have the necessary expertise to judge.
However, when Wood concentrates on detail he's superb. His close readings of various gobbets pepper the book and are all illuminating, even when one doesn't agree with Wood's analysis. His excitement over a passage from Saul Bellow about flying seemed a little excessive to me, for example. Nevertheless Wood's passion is never in doubt and it's infectious.
This is an eye-opening book. I'd guess that it's pretty much impossible to read it and not have the experience of reading enriched with every book you pick up thereafter. And that's quite an achievement.

perfected scene
Jeff Liao | Jaye Rhee | Jason River
May 10 -27, 2018
Opening: Thursday, May 10, 2018, 6:00 - 8:00 pm
Art Spiel The Wall Street Journal Artlyst Bad At Sports Time Out New York Aperture Crain's New York
John Doe Gallery is pleased to present Perfected Scene, featuring work by Jeff Liao, Jaye Rhee and Jason River, on view from Thursday, May 10 to Sunday, May 27. Curated by LYK Art Projects, the exhibition showcases photographic works that incorporate constant modifications or stagelike set-ups that lead seeing in a certain way. Jeff Liao creates a real but unrealistically desirable scene, Jaye Rhee questions the way of seeing things and making artworks, and Jason River sets up theoretical imagery with bare bodies and everyday objects. The opening reception will take place on Thursday, May 10, from 6 to 8 PM.
Jeff Liao captures the complexity and diversity of New York City's five boroughs throughout his projects such as in the Habitat 7, Grand Concourse and more recently, Central Park series. In the course of his city exploration, the Coney Island series lively depicts people at the amusement park and the beach. Liao photographs various places on the Island in a period of transition. He is known for large-scale panoramic images by combining multiple exposures of the same site taken over the course of several hours or days. Like the large horizontal piece, Coney Island from Steeplechase Pier, his photographs boast light and angle that could never naturally occur in a single exposure.
Jaye Rhee is a multimedia artist whose work encompasses video, performance, photography, and installation. The photographs shown in this exhibition are from her video work Bambi. The background in the video is comprised of faux taxidermy deer, flimsy furniture and artificial grass that the artist displays. There is a real puppy that trots around in this intentionally made-up nature. It addresses the matter of authenticity in the art by forthrightly showing the trick. The resulting artwork itself is paradoxically genuine. Rhee has been interested in human body and movement and in the authenticity and originality of art – the subject matters that can be found in her work Swan and Bambi.
Jason River photographs models posing nude, reminding of old masters paintings. In recent years, the artist started to experiment with and applied bubble wraps on models' bodies as if they were the packaged statues getting shipped out. Each wooden crate used by a model to stand or sit on has the year signed, indicating the model's arrival to New York. River deals with the idea of immigration and relocation to the city people live in, and the identity related to it. Unlike his Wrapping series in black and white photography, his new series Uncovering, developed with the use of bubble wraps in color photography adds more theatrical and fantastical atmosphere to the scene.
For all press inquiries, please contact the gallery at email@example.com / 734-277-5726
Open Friday – Sunday, 11am – 6pm + by appointment on weekdays.

"I continue to come back to Wildflower Mobile for many reasons. Working with Ashley is an overall great experience. Every time I have called to set up an appointment/massage she is very quick to respond and accommodate my busy schedule. She always arrives on time for any appointment and is very flexible to work with your day. I leave feeling rejuvenated, relaxed and with a positive energy to follow me throughout the week. I would recommend Wildflower Mobile Massage to anyone!"
-Annie A.
"Wow is all I can say! The massage therapist Ashley really knows her stuff. She knows just the right pressure, implements effective techniques and truly listens to what I need. She makes the connections with overall wellness and is very knowledgable in her treatments and recommendations. I will definitely continue with Ashley as my massage therapist!"
-Emily B.
"Indulging in the wellness field beyond normal check-ups usually means sifting through professionals to find one that matches my specific needs. When I first met Ashley, I was in severe discomfort, an anxious state, and unable to distinguish between physical and mental distress. I was fortunate to not have to look beyond this woman for compassion, concern, and attentiveness. I felt my individual needs were met, I was listened to, and most importantly, I truly felt better. Ashley encouraged me to listen to my body, passed along some of her long-accrued knowledge, and is, put simply, great at what she does. I am appreciative of her commitment to her cause!"
-Casey R.
"Wonderful massage, thank you!"
As a small business owner, I rely on the word of mouth of my lovely clients. If you enjoyed your massage, please recommend me to your family and friends!

Gluten-Free Chocolate Protein Powder Muffins/
So, I spent the last 24 hours in San Diego for work a trip and had to take a red-eye back home because of Winter Storm Quinn - needless to say I was exhausted I got home and slept until 4pm. When I finally woke up, there was already a foot of snow on the ground and then the power flickered on and off for a few minutes, which terrified me since I didn't have time to fully prepare, thus I began to bake food so we don't starve and decided protein muffins could get us through Quinn!
As some of you may know (or have noticed) we don't eat a ton of baked goods, I am allergic to gluten and we generally just like to eat healthily, but every now and then you will see me whip something up for us to enjoy. I absolutely LOVE to bake and was heartbroken when I found out I couldn't eat gluten, but that didn't stop me from baking - I still make tons of baked goods for Chance's work crew, including the banana bread I made a few weeks ago :)
Tonight, I threw together some quick protein muffins that are also gluten-free!! Scroll down to find the full recipe below and let me know what you think.
• 2 cups dry oatmeal
• 2 scoops Chocolate Pure Protein Powder
• 2 bananas
• 1/4 cup of whole milk or 1/2 & 1/2 (optional)
• 2 whole eggs
• 2 egg whites
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp cinnamon
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix all ingredients together in your stand mixer, adding milk or creamer if the mixture is too dry
2. Divide mixture into muffin pan (I found my pink pan in gold, it is THE BEST non-stick bakeware ever) (making 12 muffins) and bake for 12-15 minutes. Let cool, then serve and enjoy!

Scott to race ex-Skaife Commodore
- Published: 26/01/2007
- Views: 268
Reigning NZ V8 champion Kayne Scott will drive an ex-Mark Skaife Holden Commodore in this year's Australian V8 Supercar Development Series which begins in Adelaide next month.Scott said at the A1 GP race meeting at Taupo that he will race the Commodore that Skaife drove during the 2006 V8 Supercar championship.
Scott says the Mark Petch Motorsport team will use the ex-Skaife car to try to win the 2007 Fujitsu Development Series which starts with the Clipsal 500 meeting on the Adelaide City street circuit on March 1.
Scott will drive the Holden Racing Team car for the first time at a hand-over day with HRT at the Winton track in Victoria, Australia.
He will later run a test programme with the Commodore at the Mallala circuit in South Australia in the build-up to the Clipsal meeting.
Scott is excited by the deal which he says gives the Petch outfit a state-of-the-art car built and developed by one of the top teams in Australian V8 racing.
"It puts us in a strong position (for the development series). HRT are constantly developing their cars and equipment."
Running the car in the Development series will give the NZ team the best way to build a relationship with HRT.
"There's no team better than HRT."
Scott says he hopes to benefit from data sharing with the HRT V8 Supercar team during the season.
Initially the Petch squad will get a basic package from HRT and will have to work to show it is worthy of more assistance and that Scott's driving is good enough.
Scott says he hopes a relationship can be forged with HRT that will see some reciprocal action, with an Australian driving the second Mark Petch Motorsport Commodore in the NZ V8 series

Pachyderm Enterprise includes s3gateway, which allows you to interact with PFS storage through an HTTP API that imitates a subset of AWS S3's API. With this, you can reuse a number of tools and libraries built to work with object stores (e.g. minio, Boto) to interact with pachyderm.
You can only interact with the HEAD commit of non-authorization-gated PFS branches through the gateway. If you need richer access, you'll need to work with PFS through its gRPC interface instead.
Connecting to the s3gateway¶
The s3gateway runs in your cluster, and can be reached via
http://<cluster ip>:30600.
Alternatively, you can use port forwarding to connect to the cluster. However, we don't recommend it, as kubernetes' port forwarder incurs overhead, and does not recover well from broken connections.
Supported operations¶
These operations are supported by the gateway:
- Creating buckets: creates a repo and/or branch.
- Deleting buckets: Deletings a branch and/or repo.
- Listing buckets: Lists all branches on all repos as s3 buckets.
- Writing objects: Atomically overwrites a file on the HEAD of a branch.
- Removing objects: Atomically removes a file on the HEAD of a branch.
- Listing objects: Lists the files in the HEAD of a branch.
- Getting objects: Gets file contents on the HEAD of a branch.
For details on what's going on under the hood and current peculiarities, see the s3gateway API.
Unsupported operations¶
These S3 operations are not supported by the gateway:
- Accelerate
- Analytics
- Object copying. PFS does support this through gRPC though, so if you need this, you can use the gRPC API directly.
- CORS configuration
- Encryption
- HTML form uploads
- Inventory
- Legal holds
- Lifecycles
- Logging
- Metrics
- Multipart uploads. See writing object documentation above for a workaround.
- Notifications
- Object locks
- Payment requests
- Policies
- Public access blocks
- Regions
- Replication
- Retention policies
- Tagging
- Torrents
- Website configuration
Attempting any of these operations will return a standard
Additionally, there are a few general differences:
- There's no support for authentication or ACLs.
- As per PFS rules, you can't write to an output repo. At the moment, a 500 error will be returned if you try to do so.
If you have the option of what S3 client library to use for interfacing with the s3gateway, we recommend minio, as integration with it's go client SDK is thoroughly tested. These minio operations are supported:
Bucket operations
Object operations

Once your Low-FODMAP breakfast goes down, you're going to need some FODMAP-friendly lunch and dinner. For me, the two meals are interchangeable. Lunch is usually made up of leftovers from whatever creation I made the night(s) before. As a FODMAP-avoiding-coeliac, there is very little (if any) choice of ready-made food to buy out and about, so it is much easier and tastier to D.I.Y. I've brought a bunch of basic recipes together here, I hope this might inspire some fellow FODMAPpers to try something new.
1. Roasted fennel and red pepper pasta bake. Simple comfort food. Roast the veg with some olive oil or garlic-infused olive oil, salt, pepper, Italian herbs. A few cherry tomatoes could go well too. Stir in cooked gluten free pasta when almost done, and roast a little longer with added mozzarella and parmesan on the top. Take out when the cheese is melted.
2. Red grape, goats cheese and green bean salad. Add sunflower seeds for crunch. Chuck it all together, dress to your taste.
3. Pizza. I use Isabel's Gluten Free Pizza Mix*, which is made primarily from Low FODMAP cassava flour. A couple of my favourite toppings in the photos below; melanzane (aubergine, tomato & mozzarella) and roasted red pepper and feta. Love a classic margharita or italian ham pizza too.
*it does contain milk powder, which may not agree with everyone on the FODMAP diet
3. Salmon & greens. Bake a salmon fillet or two in a foil parcel, with a lemon chopped into pieces and placed inside, squeezing the juice over the fish as you go. Serve with boiled or steamed greens. Kale and spinach are favourites for me as they are full of the all-important calcium (coeliacs need all the help they can get!). Potato and mayo salad also works well.
4. Steak and chips. Simple, delicious. Low FODMAP and naturally gluten free, providing there are no wheatflour coatings. I don't claim to cook steak as amazing as the one below; I thought I'd post Flat Iron's offering as an example. I would highly recommend their restaurants to anyone, coeliac or otherwise.
5. Chicken breast pan-fried in lemon juice, served with a homemade tomato, spring onion, basil and courgette ratatouille (whack your choice of veggies and herbs together with some tinned tomatoes).
6. Antipasti. Essentially, a plate full of your favourite FODMAP-friendly snacky foods. I made one with eggs scrambled with spring onion, plum tomatoes, ham, olives, feta cheese and salad leaves.
5. Carrot and coriander fritters. Following this recipe by Nigel Slater, I substitute rice milk for the double cream.
6. Risotto. The below is a kale, white wine and parmesan risotto, but you could substitute whichever FODMAP-friendly veg/meat takes your fancy. Follow your usual recipe, but use a homemade stock or broth as 99.99999% of stock cubes and powders contain onion or garlic.
9. Cod poached in rice milk and white wine, serve with potatoes & greens. This is a good recipe, minus the garlic and mascarpone.
10. Sausages with roasted veg and greens, rice works too. See my previous breakfast post for recommendations of gluten free and Low-FODMAP sausages.
Keep an eye out for some of my favourite gluten free and FODMAP-friendly snacks and treats next post! Thanks for reading,

Nutritional Counseling
| Print
Nutritional counseling is provided throughout a patient's treatment to make certain their body is fully equipped for wound healing. As part of the initial patient consultation, blood work is ordered to determine the patient's nutritional health, including electrolyte and protein levels. Protein malnutrition is common in patients at risk for chronic wounds.
Patients are given a list of vitamins important for wound healing prior to treatment as well as antioxidant vitamins E, C and Beta Carotene (a form of vitamin A) to take during the hyperbaric chamber treatment. Antioxidants are involved in preventing cellular damage and can fight against the formation of free radicals. Controlling blood glucose levels is important to diabetic patients since white blood cells function poorly if levels are high.
Free radicals are atoms or groups of atoms with an odd (unpaired) number of electrons and can be formed when oxygen interacts with certain molecules. The radicals can cause damage when they react with important cellular components such as DNA, or the cell membrane. Cells may function poorly or die if this occurs.
HyOx also recommends patients follow a healthy daily diet, which includes:
- Six or more servings of breads, cereals, pasta and starchy vegetables
- Five servings of fruits and vegetables
- Two to four servings of fat-free milk, low-fat dairy products
- Up to six cooked ounces of lean meat, fish, poultry
*Adequate protein intake is critical for patients with non-healing wounds

Gabi Delgado - Mistress 1983
Gabi, originally Spanish, shows a nice mix of electronics and Latin Lover, very seductive. I liked it very much then and was glad to find it in a bargain bin by the end of 83. Unfortunately this was only the Cassette version, but the sound is ok. As usual this was recorded as mp3Pro, so do not be set off as it is only 96 kbps.
Gabi Delgado (Lopez) - Mistress (MC version) 1983
His D.A.F. companion Robert Görl also released a very nice solo record (with the assistance of Annie Lennox). Find more here .
Unfortunately this link is no longer active as this file may not be distributed.
When I just reopened the page I could see some similaities in the pictures of Gabi and the one of me on the right ;-)) Those were the times for sinister looks and shadows in the background...
Labels: German stuff, New Wave + Indie
I've been looking for this for years! An underrated pleasure. Thanks
Thank you for sharing Gabi Delgado. 'History of a Kiss' was one of my favorite songs back in 1983. I'm also happy that you shared the solo record from Robert Görl.

Grill-Roasted Prime Rib For Charcoal Grill
Why This Recipe Works
We wanted a great crust from our prime rib recipe, without the mess and without setting off the smoke detectors, so we moved the proceedings outside. First, we seared the fat-covered side (to minimize flare-ups, we had the butcher trim the fat layer down to a thin 1/8 inch), then we moved the roast to the cooler side of the grill. To get crispiness from our prime rib recipe, we applied a dry salt rub to the roast three hours before grilling. This drew out moisture from just below the surface, allowing for faster evaporation once we began searing.
