Healthy Eating – Uprooting Food Deserts
Last Saturday, after we finished working at our work study site, I asked a couple of the students if they wanted to stop somewhere to grab something to eat. Knowing that their options had to be weighed, they prudently asked me if I was going to pay for it (otherwise, they would've preferred to keep their funds and eat at home). I told them that I would pay for it, and so the search was on for some good food. Unfortunately, from just west of Downtown Orlando, also known as Parramore, to their drop-off site there wasn't a healthy option in site or mind.
Not wanting to veer too far out of route, to save gas, I made a quick decision to stop at a fast-food fried chicken restaurant, whose identity will remain anonymous. As we were staring at the lists of options, I knew that I didn't want anything on the menu, so I asked the fellas, "Well, what do you want?" They both slowly shook their heads, and decided against purchasing any of their cholesterol-filled options. I have never been prouder!! Driving away, I thought, this was one of the proudest moments I've had in my time at Grow Orlando, and our theory is resounding some positive effects.
Tying fiscal responsibility with healthy decisions does lead towards a healthier lifestyle – even in food deserts!! Our healthiest option, unfortunately, was a gas station due to sheer variety, but it was great to see our guys L.E.T. Grow into a new lifestyle. I can't wait to see what they do next!

People who go to work for corporations essentially abandon their integrity as individuals in order to serve the corporation. And the corporation has a set of rationalizations and excuses for its behavior that the people within it subscribe to, which means they have no moral force of their own. It's impossible for them to think for themselves or have a contrary opinion.

If you are one that follows the news, you've undoubtedly heard about the massacre of 9 innocent souls in the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in Charleston, SC last week. A 21-year old human turd sat for an hour in a bible study with the people he eventually murdered inside that church. He was caught, he confessed, and hopefully, he'll not spend too many years on South Carolina's death row.
This week in the news you've probably heard about the new push to remove the Confederate flag from the South Carolina State House building in Columbia, SC (and that the Confederate flag was used in the 1992 presidential campaign of Bill Clinton and running mate Al Gore – and, that several U.S. businesses have now stopped selling the Confederate flag). You may have heard that the Pope says that humans, not God, have created "climate change" and that anyone who manufactures guns can't call themselves a Christian. The AP published a photo which appears to show a gun pointed at Senator and presidential candidate Ted Cruz's head. Obama said n*gger in a radio interview. A 19-year old North Carolina kid plotted to kill 1,000 people in the United States on behalf of ISIS. ISIS awarded women as sex slaves to their members who could remember verses from the Koran the best. Oh, and there was another post on twitter from some loser about how he can't wait to wake up to see an attack in the UK, the US, or to see Pamela Geller beheaded (the Twitter user who posted this threat has been suspended, so I can't provide you with this link). Actually, it's not AS likely that you heard those last 3 stories as it is that you know about the phony "remove the confederate flag" BS story that is saturating the 24-hour cable news cycle or about how a stupid, female prison guard smuggled hacksaw blades inside of some frozen meat in order to help those 2 murderers escape a New York prison.
Since last week's murders in Charleston, the city of Charleston has descended into riots, half the city is on fire, 1000's have been injured, and 100's have been arrested. No. Nothing in that last sentence is true. What is true is that since those 9 innocent people were murdered in church, the people of the city of Charleston have put on a CLINIC about how to respond to an injustice in your community. There have been a couple of reports of two different statues being tagged with some graffiti. That is all that I've seen that has gone wrong in Charleston since the murders.
Given the news stories that are enveloping the daily news cycle, I wanted to bring you something that you may have missed that happened this past Sunday in the city of Charleston, South Carolina. Have you heard about the "peace march" or about the "Unity Chain for Charleston" or the "Hands Across The Bridge" event?
|Photo comment from @Bear_Caldwell on Twitter:
"We are #CharlestonStrong as victim families lead the way! What a statement. "
On Sunday, June 21st, 10,000 to 25,000 people (the estimates I've seen greatly vary) converged on the bridge for the "Unity Walk for Peace". It wasn't all white people, and it wasn't all black people. It was a melting-pot-like mixture of both races coming together and unifying for peace. Peace between races. Peace in their city. And, peace in this country.
Ferguson…Baltimore…you need to see ALL OF THIS (Nothing included below is posted in any particular order…just take it all in):
This is the best video I have come across the depicts what happened just PRIOR to the march:
This video is an "extention" of the above video. It shows more of what happened prior to the march. Skip ahead about 4 or 5 minutes to get to the point at which the above video ends:

I think this video depicts part of the 9-minute moment of silence (1-minute for each victim). I saw it reported in a couple different places over the past week that this 9-minute moment of silence was to occur. I have not seen video of it, nor have I seen any reporting to verify that it actually did occur. Nevertheless, here's about 1/2 a minute of what appears to me to be a "moment of silence":

Here's the woman who's idea it was to organize the "Unity Chain" in Charleston…good on her:
WCIV-TV | ABC News 4 – Charleston News, Sports, Weather
And, you'll most likely not find a more unifying message anywhere than the one seen in this 2-hour+ church service from Emanuel AME Church…from this past Sunday.
THANK YOU TO THE AMERICANS IN CHARLESTON, SC WHO HAVE SHOWN THE WORLD HOW TO REACT WHEN AN INJUSTICE ACT IS PERPETRATED ON YOUR COMMUNITY. If HALF of the USA was as good as Charleston, we all would benefit. The USA has a long way to go to GET THERE.
Thank you Charleston. You're an inspiration.

"Apple has confirmed to iMore that the bug is not only fixed in current betas of iOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS, it'll also be made available to the current release versions of all the operating systems as well," Keller writes. "So, for example, though the bug is fixed in iOS 11.3 beta, Apple will push out an update to iOS 11.2.5, the current release version, to fix the problem as well. That'll make sure everyone gets the fix as quickly as possible."
"If you've been struck by this bug and can't open Messages or your third-party messaging or email app of choice," Keller writes, "you should be able to fix it by having a friend send you a sort of "rescue message" in a different thread and tapping on that notification."

Skip the ordinary and take the family for an outdoor adventure farm. Lowry Park farm is what's hot in Tampa! The tradition continues, but we love the new music events and the buffalo.
If you arrive early in the morning, the park will be all to yourselves. Pick a day at the Tampa school system is open and you will not have to compete with all the local kids. Kids in school will keep the lines very short and you can get great video of the animals.
It would seem to be a very odd place for an Amusement Park, at sligh avenue and north boulevard. We had been here years and ago and decided to try again with all of the new additions and improvements being talked about on tv. Very fun and festive, you only need nice weather to enjoy the farm.
Darcy Z.
Tell the Lowry Park Lion King kitty that Florida Travel Commander is coming to visit. We are going back to Lowry Park sometime when the weather is perfect and the discounts yell out!
I like the vacations in Tampa. Spring training for the Lion King kitty has begun. Please ask the cat doctor if it is ok to run the Lion King kitty through spring training drills. I am going to build a exercise course, if the doctor says ok.
Make sure to mention the Lion King kitty has a foot pain, and needs a medical marijuana subscription. Give it try, you might go home with an ounce of marijuana!
After seven hours of Cuban Restaurant pork cooking, adding in a bunch of carrots and white potatoes chucks was a good idea. I can make you a fancy breakfast from what you have and what I am bringing. Yeah kitty chase season, if the doctor says ok.
A lot of people don't realize this park is located right next to the Hillsborough River Waterfront area. What a great day you can have as were always looking for places that are Perfect for very long Walks to get our fitness in. You can't beat all the good options and of course Bayshore comes to Play and of course the Community Park.
Look for the discounts and deals that the zoo offers periodically. Sign up for the email newsletter to get the best prices to get inside the park. This is a good thing to do for all people of all ages.

With cooler weather, Galveston comes alive in the fall with its popular outdoor events and festivals – some popular traditions and activities that both locals and visitors look forward to every year. As the leaves turn colors and as the beach crowds wane, the focus is now more on the arts, theater, music, dining, sightseeing, bike-riding and walking along the Seawall to enjoy the cool breezes. And then there are the holiday events – from the spooks and ghosts of Halloween to the island's longstanding "Dickens on The Strand" festival.
Here are seven highlights of just some of the things you can do in Galveston this fall:
Harvest Moon Regatta (Oct. 5)
Come out and watch as hundreds of sail boats take to the Gulf of Mexico for the annual Harvest Moon Regatta. This year, the race will start and finish in Galveston, with the start of the race located at 25th and Seawall Blvd. The boats will race on a distance established before the start between 100 and 170 miles.
ArtWalk (Oct. 14)
For over 25 years, the Galveston Art Center has produced an ArtWalk on Saturday nights in the heart of the historic district. Now spreading to other parts of the Island, ArtWalk occurs approximately every six weeks. Not a street festival, ArtWalk takes place in existing commercial galleries, non-profit arts spaces and what are called "other walls" — restaurants and retail stores. One of the Galveston Arts Center's largest programs, ArtWalk promotes visual art and supports our arts-based community, offering alternative places to see and learn about art.

A manuscript that assesses the effectiveness of the REST (Respite Education & Support Tools) training program will appear in an upcoming issue of Home Health Care Services Quarterly (HHCSQ).
The manuscript, "Effects of Respite Care Training on Respite Provider Knowledge and Confidence, and Outcomes for Family Caregivers Receiving Respite Services," reports on the efficacy, or effectiveness, of REST training on respite providers, and the outcomes for family caregivers receiving respite services.
Dr. Lynn Ackerman, co-founder and chief customer officer of Sensight Surveys, and Lois Sheaffer, National Director of REST, co-authored the study, which is set for publication in the near future.
"This study is a first step in examining how formal respite training translates into competent respite care and, as a result, better outcomes for family caregivers," Ackerman said. "The REST program was built on the idea that delivery of a quality respite experience involves equipping providers with skills that allow them to respond to unique family needs and situations. Our research supports the supposition that when respite providers are educated on the core areas of quality respite, they have the tools to develop an individualized plan of care and the know-how to thoughtfully respond to unique family situations, resulting in better caregiver outcomes."
"It's an interesting study that investigated the effects of a respite training program on respite providers' knowledge and confidence as well as on family caregiver well-being," noted a reviewer of the manuscript. "The study filled the research gap about if the training would be beneficial to improve respite providers' competence and how it would be interacted with providers' prior knowledge and background; and also how the training program would further influence family caregivers' outcomes of different types… The authors found that the training program significantly improved caregivers' outcomes through preparing providers to deliver quality respite."
"It is my passion to serve caregivers through respite," Sheaffer said. "As author of the REST curriculum, it is very humbling to see the program being used across the nation. To have this article published shows the efficacy of the first evidence-based respite training program in the nation. It is truly inspiring as we continue to deliver education and support to those offering a break to caregivers."
REST is a Train-the-Trainer program that equips and prepares trainers to conduct an eight-hour respite training. By training paid and unpaid workers to provide respite, it allows caregivers who are caring for people with special needs across the lifespan (children, adults and seniors) to build networks of support to prevent burnout, and ultimately delay long term placement of their loved ones.
Currently, REST has 526 Trainers and 5,480 Companions – those who provide respite services – in 29 states.
HHCSQ is a peer-reviewed quarterly journal dedicated to the advancement of research, practice, and policy in health care across a continuum of care settings.

Posted 31 January 2017. PMN Crop News.
Sivanto Prime Insecticide Now Available for Additional Specialty Crops
Source: Bayer CropScience Press Release. www.bayercropscience.us
Research Triangle Park, North Carolina (January 19, 2017)--Today's specialty crop growers have unique needs. Bayer is meeting those needs with an expansion of Sivanto® Prime insecticide for foliar use on stone fruit, caneberries and many additional crops. In addition to expanded crops, Sivanto Prime is also now available for soil use on leafy and brassica vegetables.
Sivanto Prime also has received a reduced risk designation from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for use on stone fruit, avocado and pomegranate. With these new uses, Sivanto Prime is now registered on a broad range of horticulture crops and most broadacre crops, including citrus, pome fruit, stone fruit, grapes, bush berries, tree nuts (excluding almonds), potatoes, vegetables, alfalfa, cotton, sorghum and several specialty crops (such as blueberry, clover, pomegranate and caneberries).
In addition, Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for flupyradifurone, the active ingredient in Sivanto Prime insecticide, have been established, effective immediately, in Australia and Taiwan. These MRLs are available across key crops, including grapes, citrus and potatoes (both countries), as well as leafy and brassica vegetables (Taiwan only). Produce treated with Sivanto Prime can now be traded within the NAFTA region and three of the most important Pacific Rim countries, Australia, Japan and Taiwan.
Bayer is pursuing additional MRLs for Sivanto Prime in the European Union, Hong Kong and South Korea, where similar MRLs are expected within the next 12 months. A full list of the current established MRLs can be found at www.globalmrl.com.
"Growers really like the unique profile of Sivanto Prime, which provides them with state-of-the-art precision pest control that effectively targets harmful pests while helping safeguard beneficial insects – all with a flexible window of application that allows for use when other products often cannot be used," said Frank Rittemann, product manager for Bayer. "Sivanto Prime is highly selective to many beneficial arthropods and predatory mites when used as directed, making it a good fit for an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program."
Sivanto Prime provides excellent residual control of whiteflies, psyllids, scale, aphids and leafhoppers and can be applied as a foliar spray, a soil drench, shank or drip application, depending on the crop, to allow growers maximum flexibility with their crop protection tools. More information on application methods for each crop is included in the product label.
"We're excited that even more growers can now incorporate our latest insecticide innovation, Sivanto Prime, into their modern pest management practices," Rittemann said.
Bayer is committed to bringing new technology and solutions for agriculture and non-agricultural uses. For questions concerning the availability and use of products, contact a local Bayer representative, or visit Crop Science, a division of Bayer, online at www.cropscience.bayer.us.

Dropped catches cost Linton as winning run ends
Linton 189 lost to Saffron Walden 286-7 by 97 runs
Linton's winning streak came to an end at home to Saffron Walden after a disappointing display in the field.
The hosts uncharacteristically put down five good chances, two of which proved to be expensive, with Walden's Alex Morley 103 and Tom Price 89 not out both dropped early on in their innings.
As a result, Linton were left chasing 286, a big score on the Linton ground.
Ajay Joseph did take the game to Saffron Walden with a quick 60 (which included five fours and five sixes) supported by Sam Hawley (22),
But with the Linton batsmen having to 'throw their bats' to stand a chance of winning the game and Saffron Walden holding all their catches, wickets were tumbling at regular intervals.
Linton finished all out for 189 off 33.3 overs in what was a bad day at the office in their quest for promotion.
n Olly North and Sam Matthews were the heroes of Linton II's (152-6) four-wicket win at Comberton (151-5) in Division Five South, taking them from 83-6 to reach a 152 target.
After Comberton won the toss and elected to bat first, Linton got off to a good start, picking up the first two wickets without conceding too many runs.
Linton's bowlers had to work hard for wickets with Comberton reaching 151-5 from their 40 overs.
North was Linton's best bowler, taking 2-31 from his 10 overs. Thomas Wrenn also performed well, giving away only 18 runs off his eight overs.
The visitors' innings got off to a disastrous start as they lost their first three wickets for only 18 runs inside the first eight overs.
Josh Hickford (34) and Allan Campbell (40) counter-attacked before North and Matthews rescued the victory.

The ramp-up to yuletide reminded me that I'd written this and not posted it here. It's as obscure a fandom and pairing as you can get. There aren't even places to post fic for this show.
"Thank You"
Fandom: HIMYM
Pairing: Barney/Robin (het)
Rating: uh... PG-13 for mentioning the unmentionables, I guess?
Warnings: college-grade romance-angst and a deep reliance on believing that Ted is an unreliable narrator. Set in or around "Milk."
Beta: not really. splash_the_cat basically said, "I think it's good enough for your fandom of one." ;)
Summary: Why *did* Robin start crying over the corsage?
It is sometime after he has made her toes curl and her fingers clench whitely on the sheets that she says, "Thank you."
"No, thank you," he says, and she can hear the smirk in his voice while he stretches his long, slender body next to hers, close but not touching. He lies on his side, propped on his elbow, and he is watching her in the dimness of the streetlights with a curiously intent expression.
"No. Thank you for the corsage."
"Oh. No problem. It was a necessary accessory."
She lies silently for a moment, staring at the patterns of light on the ceiling. She always gets cold after she comes, and she has pulled the sheet and blanket up to her waist. Some boyfriend in college made her believe that it's rude to hide your breasts from someone who just went down on you, but she's cold, and she clutches the edge of the blanket and the folded over sheet like they are the key to saving a life.
It is the second time he's been in her bed since the mess with Ted, and she still refuses to think too much about it. Since it's Barney, she hasn't been too worried about taking what she needs. He won't get hurt. If anything, she'll be the one who gets hurt. She was the one who started crying when he gave her a corsage for prom. She was the one who sat uneasily next to him at the bar, hoping no one noticed how much she liked him lazily draping his arm along the back of the booth seat. She'd found herself sort of pretending that they were a couple. Just a little.
She shivers a little. The landlord has turned off the heat, but spring hasn't moved to summer yet, and the window is open just a crack.
"Are you cold?" Barney asks in a low voice, a gentle voice mostly devoid of his idiosyncratic intonations.
She stirs and stretches her legs a little, and realizes he's just been watching her for almost five minutes, maybe ten, without a word or a touch. "Yeah, I'm a little cold."
He twitches the covers up over them both, and then takes her into his arms, and she lets him. And it's strange. He smells like Barney--an expensive shaving soap ("Hand-milled by Tibetan Trappists. Yes--the two great monks that monk great together."), an even more expensive shampoo ("It's the best. It's so good, it doesn't even have a name."), and the expensive linen spray that his laundress uses on his clothes ("Yes, I have a laundress. Dry cleaning is so twentieth century."). He also smells like Robin, like rather intimate areas of Robin, in fact, and while that's wrong on so many levels because she's not sure that she trusts Barney enough for that kind of stuff to be happening, it has happened.
Robin remembers the first date with Ted and how it was easy to slip into that zone with him, the dating zone, the "I'm kissing you and it's normal" zone. It was too easy, in fact, and that was one of the reasons she'd built the Great Wall of Friendship between them. If she had kissed Ted for five more minutes on that first date, she would have blinked and found herself married, pregnant and living in the suburbs. Lily and Marshall's two-month wedding ramp-up would have seemed like nothing compared to how fast Ted would have had her in the lithotomy position, pushing out little Tedlings.
And she doesn't want that because she wants a career, true, but she also doesn't want that because she doesn't want to be comfortable. She could have been lead anchor in Iowa City three years ago if she were into comfort. Comfort is not taking the shitty job in the big market. Comfort is not rescuing an impractical five dogs. Comfort is the easy thing, the practical thing.
Comfort is a slow death in a big house, Robin thinks, and then wonders how her mother got into her head just then.
There's a tear about to spill, and Robin twists away from Barney because the last thing she wants to do is cry on his shoulder. That would not be the thing that Barney and Robin are about. Barney and Robin are about sharing a cab up-town, while she tells him the story of kissing Lily in the ladies' room just to see his eyes light up, just to hear what insane, insensitive thing he'll say. Barney and Robin are about having a glass of port as a nightcap so he can tell her about his legendary exploits as an undercover turtle. Barney and Robin are supposed to be about hooking up just once, just because Robin is feeling a little vengeful about Ted, and because Barney is an opportunist... Barney and Robin are not supposed to be about calling each other the next day, even though it was totally just a friendly call to let the other know that the laser tag place is closing down. Barney and Robin are not supposed to be about hooking up a second time, and they are certainly not about having a 2 AM conversation with tears.
She isn't sure if Barney is being an insensitive ass or the kindest person she's ever met when he doesn't comment on the sob that follows.
Robin lies very still and concentrates very hard, and there aren't any more tears and there aren't any more sobs. After a few minutes, with most of her voice control back, she says, "Has it occurred to you that we're both side-kicks?"
"What?" He sounds startled, and he jumps a little, like maybe he was falling asleep and she interrupted it. Well, that explains the not-noticing of the crying, she thinks.
"Barney and Robin. You're Fred Flintstone's side-kick. I'm Batman's side-kick."
He starts laughing. "That's awesome, Boy-Wonder. How long have you been worrying about this?"
"I haven't been worrying about it."
"Why do you think I've been worrying about it?"
"Because you brought it up at 2 AM."
"The other night we talked--" She stops herself from saying, "--until dawn."
"We didn't just talk, Scherbatsky. Now, really. How long?"
"It just came to me."
"Did it? Because to me it sounds like you think you're second banana. Now, if you're feeling second banana to Lily and Marshall, that's cool, because for the next two months, they're the masters of a three-ring circus and we are their dancing monkey-bears. But if this is about Ted--"
"It's not about Ted," she says.
"--Then I take extreme offense, because I am not Ted's side-kick. If anything, Ted is my side-kick. The Sancho Panza to my Don Quixote."
"Ooooh-kay," says Robin. "I didn't realize that I opened such a gigantic can of worms here..."
"Didn't you?" He's all Barney again, she notices. He's taken one arm away from her to make gesticulations. But when she doesn't respond, the arm comes back down, and he rests his palm on her naked hip. Suddenly, the ranting mode is off, and he's nuzzling her neck.
"Barney," she says.
"Mmm," he says through a mouthful of her.
"Promise me something."
He takes his mouth off her ear. "Uhm."
"Promise me that we'll always be friends."
There's silence for a moment, until he says, "You mean, 'promise me that we'll be friends after this is over and I move on to someone else.'"
Robin doesn't want to say it out loud, but yes, that's what she means. Barney's fingers are locked on her hip like a vise. They don't hurt her, but they're there. He's tense.
"You mean," Barney says, "'promise me that we'll still be friends when I move on to Ted.'"
Robin realized some time ago that Barney is still the smart, sensitive kid who wanted to join the Peace Corps. The fact that he uses the smarts and the sensitivity in service of his pursuit of pleasure doesn't completely negate those things. She is sorry for hurting him; at the same time, she doesn't believe the hurt can last. Brutal honesty is called for.
"It seems inevitable," she says. "I'll be mad at him for a while, and who knows, maybe he'll find someone before... but if he doesn't. Well. He didn't make that mistake on his own."
"Oh, yeah," Barney says, and his fingers relax and leave her hip one by one until he's not touching her at all anymore. "You can't blame him entirely. You were the one who had a 2 AM juicing emergency."
Brutal honesty, Scherbatsky, she reminds herself. She takes a deep breath. "Yeah." She reaches for him, draws him in for a kiss, and Barney, opportunistic hedonist that he is, is into it. For a bit. But the kiss ends, and instead of going into the next move, he slides out of bed.
He finds his socks and puts them on. He locates his underwear at the foot of the bed, puts that on, and stands before her in socks and underwear. The street lamps highlight his nose, the line from his forehead to cheekbone, and leave his eyes in shadow.
"I promise," he says. "If that's what you want, I'll promise."
"What's wrong? Why are you leaving?" She sits up.
He goes to the closet and takes his shirt from the padded hanger he'd stolen from her earlier. "Look," he says, sliding his arms into the shirt. "If I stay tonight, I'll stay another night. And if I stay another night, we will have done this for three nights. And then it will be a habit. And that's not gonna work, if you want me to promise that we'll always be friends." He buttons the shirt, and sits down on the edge of the bed with his pants in hand.
"I guess..." Robin says, and she's ashamed it comes out in a little girl voice, but she can't take it back.
Barney leans forward and does the brotherly forehead kiss. He's extraordinarily good at it. "You know I'm right."
She's actually not sure, not in this moment. She was counting on him being here tonight, and really, the next one, too. He was right, it'd become a habit. But would that be so bad?
Well, maybe not for her. Maybe she was wrong before, and she isn't the only one who can get hurt here.
"Thank you," she says, but she waits to say it until the door is shut and Barney is gone. She lies back down and stares at the streetlamps until they become a blur and then the darkness of sleep.
