Hannah had her first gymnastics practice in her "advanced preschool" class today. She's been looking forward to it for weeks. She had to "try out" for this class and was thrilled when she was selected. I'm not sure what the criteria was to make the class but I guess she showed some potential in her crooked little cartwheel or sideways forward roll. And today, in her new shiny, stripy, polkadotted leotard she was ecstatic. On the drive there I asked her if she was excited, wondering if there was a part of her that was nervous. New kids, new coach, newly five years old.
"Oh I'm so excited mommy! So so so excited. It's going to be the best. It is going to be the most fun ever. If I can't do something, I'll just ask and the coach will come over and help me. Because you know, I haven't done gymnastics for a long time (the summer/fall) so I might have forgotten some tricks but I'm sure I'll remember right away once the coach has showed me. I'll probably have the most fun I've ever had. Ever."
My little optimist.
I'm an optimist. I grew up in a household full of pessimists but somehow, I became an optimist. I don't know if it was a retaliation against the negativity surrounding me or if I was just born this way but I definitely view things in a positive light, for the most part. My mom used to always assume things wouldn't go well. I'd desperately ask her why she always put a negative spin on things and she'd say, "I'd rather believe the worst and then be pleasantly surprised if I'm wrong". I used to press her saying, "wouldn't it just be better to live life assuming things WILL work out and then, if they don't, be sad?" She absolutely, no doubt about it, disagreed. She hated the let down. It used to drive me crazy. Things as unimportant as the weather to things of utmost importance like whether I'd be asked to prom, she would prepare me for the worst. I guess she didn't want ME disappointed either. She was protecting me. She was loving me.
Often I'd look over at my dad when she was casting a negative light on things in my world, asking him to support my optimism and convince her to see the glass more full and he'd just shrug his shoulders. He knew it was a battle not worth fighting. Often my mom would say she was just being realistic. Not negative. If the chances were not in her favor, she wasn't willing to take a risk to think things would fall on her side. It was easier for her this way. It still is. I'm used to it. I now often do the "Wah Wah" of Debbie Downer when she makes a negative comment about something involving me. It's become a bit of a joke. One that she doesn't often laugh at but I have to.
Yesterday for Hannah's birthday I made big plans to take our family to the Big Apple Circus in NYC. I paid top dollar for close ringside seats. I decided to buy Luke his own seat even if he chose to sit on my or Tim's lap for the entire show. This way it would give us extra space and would give him the option to climb up and down off the chair if he wished. Hannah and I counted the days down to the big event. I was nervous in the back of my head. Nervous the Big Apple Circus may be a let down compared to the Ringling Brothers I saw and remembered clearly from my childhood. Nervous that Luke (and Hannah) would be petrified of the loud noises, big animals, clowns and crowds. Nervous that Hannah would want to go out into the ring with the acts, reminiscent of our trip to see the Wiggles on stage when she was two. Nervous that all of the planning would somehow not play out as Hannah and I had dreamed. But everything I said out loud, for anyone else's ears… was very positive. I told everyone how wonderful it would be, how sure I was that everything would go smoothly.
Yesterday morning I spoke to my mom.
Not surprisingly, she wasn't as full of optimism. I tried not to let it effect me. I tried to keep my steady, sturdy, upbeat attitude. It's not always easy when one of your biggest supporters isn't walking to the same beat.
She ended the conversation with, "Have fun!" And I know she meant it. She always wants the best for me. She is crushed when I'm sad. I'm sure the fact that I choose her to complain to when things DON'T go well makes her that much more interested in seeing things turn out positively. I don't blame her. I don't want her to stop communicating her thoughts to me… I guess, just as I always did when I was little, I wish I could drain some of the negativity from her head. Let her see how much shinier things could look without it. But you can't change the way someone views life. I just have to let it roll off me… and stay confident in my opposite approach.
I am not someone who looks at things through rose colored glasses. I actually get frustrated with people who do. People NEED to at least take NOTE of both sides, it's just which side they choose to let guide them that differentiates them. I am grounded. There are times when reality gets the best of me and I have a hard time snapping out of it and hoping for things to take a change for the best. I do worry. I do vent. I am not the person who says, "I'm sure everything will be fine." when I have reason to believe it won't. BUT, I choose to look at the sunny side. I choose to notice the flowers, not the dirt. The peaks of sun, not the clouds. It gets me through rough patches. It keeps me from wallowing. It keeps me sane on days when I could otherwise get pulled under.
I'm still glowing in the bask of the circus. That's right. It was AMAZING. Luke sat with his entire fist in his mouth for almost two hours, eyes as big as saucers. He applauded when anyone else clapped. He yelled, "Ta DA!" when the trapeze artist made a perfect landing. He "woof woofed" at the doggies parading around. He was asleep within 7 minutes on the car ride home. And the birthday girl? She had her picture taken with one of the head clowns. She got a birthday kiss from the ring master. She had her face painted, peed for the first time in a port-a-potty and announced to everyone and anyone who would listen that she was five. The only tears that were shed were this morning, when she realized it was over and we weren't going again today.
I'm so happy I was optimistic about yesterday. If I hadn't been, my nerves probably would have gotten the best of me. I would have left Luke at home and worried about each and every detail. Instead, I went with the flow. I planned a great day, and it was over and above what I dreamed of. I saw my daughter's eyes widen with excitement and disbelief at what was going on in front of and above her. The thrill in Luke's face will forever be etched in my memory. He won't remember one second of it… but I will.
Two months of excitement and one afternoon of perfection. Certainly better than two months of fretting and an afternoon of relief. It gave me reason to continue my optimistic way about me. And reason to encourage the same with my kids… if nothing else it will keep the Debbie Downer impersonations to a minimum.

There is nothing wrong with focusing on the positive, while keeping the negative in the back of your mind. It's a tougher cross to bear, so to speak, but it's worth it. Way worth it. I'm so glad you all had a wonderful time 🙂
Love that you all had so much fun! I can feel your smile right through your words.
I am so glad the circus was a great experience. I am the optimist that says always be prepared so look at that other side or possibility.
It sounds like a magical day! There are too few optimists left in this world; keep it up!
My dad is like your mom. Although my dad is much worse cause he is angry about everything! It is so exhausting to be around him! But I'm so glad your day was fabulous!!
My husband is like your Mom. and its getting worse. driving everything into the ground. And I am so thankful to be an optimist myself, it really works for me. Partially because when things don't go my way, I don't get too down about it. I don't know why I as blessed like this but it is just the way I am. Even the pain and devastation of realizing my marriage is not working, after 10 years, isn't leaving me paralyzed. I feel that we can adjust, re-make our relationship and partnership and find a way to give the best of what we each have to our kids. we are going to have to blaze new trails, but I believe we can do it! Because I am an optimist!The Circus sounds WONDERFUL! Good mama!
My mother is a wonderful and supportive woman, but I didn't realize until recently the ways in which her tendency to worry affected my own outlook on life. In some ways, I appreciate the practicality and moderation her approach instilled in me, but I think I've missed out on a fair amount of exuberant joy due to my own resulting pessimism and caution. Good for you for creating opportunities for that joy for your kids and yourself.
I know EXACTLY how your mom feels. That's how I work, too. When I was pregnant with my daughter, I convinced myself she was a boy so I wouldn't be disappointed if I didn't get my girl. It's how I've always operated, I guess.~ElizabethConfessions From A Working Mom
I'm so happy for you that it was a great experience!
I was such a pessimist growing up but I've definitely switched. I feel like you kinda get what you expect from life. If you think everything is going to suck, well that's probably what you'll get. It's nice that your daughter can have that view from the get-go.
Becca, I can barely talk with my mom when I am struggling with something. More often than not, I will get off the phone quite upset and/or angry. I love my mom dearly. She and I can have wonderful conversations. However, she is of the opinion that..well it is too complicated to even describe into words. Oh, wait, let me try. She thinks I am going the way of Satan. Not kidding. She finds my "liberal" thinking a bit too much. So, she will chide and offer advice. Something that I do not want. I have learned to call her only when I want to chat about something light. Otherwise, I will be miserable. I'd rather stay positive.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern arrived in Manila last night for the East Asia Summit, where she will be mixing with almost the same crew she met at Apec in Vietnam.
Except this time her diplomacy skills will be tested, because her host is Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte, who has gained international notoriety for his encouragement of unlawful killing of drug traffickers.
And Ms Ardern has signalled further efforts to resolve the Manus Island crisis, which could put her on a collision course with Australia.
She is due to have a bilateral meeting with Mr Duterte today, at which she is expected to find a polite way of saying New Zealand is outraged by the way he dispenses justice.
An Amnesty International report in June said police had taken under-the-table payments to carry out the killings — estimated to be more than 6000 — and had recruited paid killers to conduct executions as well.
Ms Ardern is also expected to hold formal talks withCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President of the European Council Donald Tusk.
With the TPP on hold indefinitely, New Zealand will be looking to quickly progress its trade talks with the EU, making talks with Mr Tusk a priority.
The Philippines is hosting a meeting of Asean, a grouping of 10 Southeast Asian countries, today and eight more countries will join it tomorrow, to form the East Asia Summit.
Russia, China and the United States will all attend but China's Premier Li Keqiang will be there instead of President Xi Jinping. Donald Trump will attend the Asean summit only, not the East Asia Summit.
During several other meetings planned for Ms Ardern, the TPP, now renamed the CPTPP (Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans Pacific Partnership), may be canvassed.
Foreign Minister Winston Peters will be with Ms Ardern and Associate Trade Minister Damien O'Connor will attend a meeting of countries negotiating a trade deal, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership.
It is being led by China and includes India but is said to be far less ambitious than the TPP.

Looters have pillaged a number of warehouses containing ancient Egyptian artifacts, stealing and damaging some of them looking for gold and other treasures.
On Friday, looters broke into the Cairo museum, home to the world's greatest collection of Pharaonic treasures, smashing several statues and damaging two mummies, while police battled anti-government protesters on the streets.
The culture, monuments, temples and pyramids of ancient Egypt have left a lasting legacy on the world and are a major draw for the country's tourism industry.

My recipe calls for WW pastry flour. Can I substitute Spelt flour 1 for 1? I was concerned about the fact that it specifically calls for pastry flour which tends to produce a more tender result.
What is it that you're making? I don't have much experience with spelt, other than as a secondary ingredient in yeast breads, but I noticed this article by Alice Medrich, who has a ton of experience using alternative flours: https://food52.com/blog... Based on this, one could easily conclude that it's worth a try.
Also, it stands to reason that spelt would work just fine, given that pastry flour is generally a low gluten flour, while spelt, from what I have read, has gluten that is weaker than wheat flour, i.e., it does not create strong, stretchy strands, meaning spelt is likely to produce a more tender baked good. The WW flour will have a different flavor, but it's certainly worth trying the spelt!
I'll be interested to see others' answers to this. ;o)
I just baked a blueberry galette with a spelt crust. I can't tell you how it works as compared to WW pastry flour but I can tell you that the dough was very tender and cracked easily when rolling out and the finished dough was crumbly. It tasted good but leaked a lot in the oven where cracks appeared.
Sipa, thanks for letting us know. Your experience is consistent with the fact that spelt's gluten is weak. I tend to agree with the wise, savvy Stella Parks, who has this to say about pie crusts and gluten:
[W]e have to realize that gluten isn't the enemy of our dough. (If it were, we'd have all switched to a gluten-free recipe by now.) To paraphrase an old friend, my ally is gluten, and a powerful ally it is. It's the force that gives pastry its power, that binds a crust together. It strengthens dough so that we can wield it with confidence, knowing it won't fall apart in our hands." http://www.seriouseats...
Lesson here: If you want to use spelt in a pie or galette crust, for flavor or whatever other reason, use some AP flour, too, to strengthen it. ;o)
Spelt flour is not necessarily made from the whole grain--you may end up with a different texture or need to use less liquid.
More on substituting spelt flour for whole wheat (regular, not pastry) here: http://www.thekitchn.com... and on baking with regular pastry flour and WW pastry flour, from Bob's Red Mill: http://www.bobsredmill...
Still, would love to know what the recipe is for, as one must consider these questions in context. ;o)
Sorry for omitting what I was preparing to use the spelt flour with. I have a zucchini quick bread recipe from Bob's Red Mill.
pianogirl, based on what I've read - especially Medrich's piece on cakes linked above -- the substitution should not be a problem at all. If you do try it, please let us know how it turns out! ;o)

I saw a striking card from Sheryl Dickinson using a new technique (new to me, that is) called Dragged Madras, published in the Technique Junkie Newsletter. I'm no longer a subscriber, but I think I pretty much figured it out: it's simply masking and sponging. Use Dotto to keep the Whisper White panel fixed and the markings on your grid paper to keep the mask straight.
When I first saw Sheryl's card I thought of bathroom tile. Does this recall anyone's childhood?
This is my first attempt; the colors are pretty shrill! So I'll try something else. But I was reminded how wonderful Stampin' Up!'s Whisper White card stock is to stamp on. I've said before that buying WW was one of the last things I did as a new stamper — it seemed so expensive, and I could get white card stock from Wal-Mart for a lot less. But there is no comparison. Try your own test if you're skeptical!

Michael W. Vories, MD
Dr. Vories is one of the few hair transplant surgeons in the world who performs FUE hair transplantation exclusively in his practice and the only hair surgeon in the United States who performs the entire procedure from graft removal to graft implantation himself.
Before Dr. Vories became an expert in the field of hair restoration surgery, he was a hair transplant patient himself. He has a unique understanding of the needs of men and women with thinning hair. That was the driving force behind his decision to utilize Follicular Unit Extraction exclusively as an effective and affordable procedure to restore hair naturally.
I have been overwhelmingly pleased and satisfied with everything about my experience with Dr. Vories and Carolina Hair Surgery. He is an extraordinarily skilled practitioner and his approach and demeanor are ideal. It has always given me confidence as a patient to know that Dr. Vories is one of the widely praised and renowned leaders in the hair surgery field, nationally and worldwide. With follicular unit extraction now being both the present and the future of the field of hair surgery, it is comforting to know that Dr. Vories has not only mastered the technique but has advanced it, having been one of the true pioneers of F.U.E., giving lectures and presentations around the country and overseas to educate and promote the technique and its advantages to other practitioners. With his professional credentials and accomplishments being unparalleled and unmatched, it is also important to emphasize what an absolute joy Dr. Vories and his staff are to be around. They have always made the extra effort to engage with me as a patient and make me feel comfortable and relaxed. Lastly and most importantly, the results of the surgery have been truly outstanding. it looks great and has been everything I hoped for and more. I have recommended Dr. Vories and his surgical practice to many friends, acquaintances and colleagues over the years and will continue to do so. Knowing what I know after having had several procedures, I can say with certainty that Dr. Vories is the best and wisest choice for hair surgery and that the other options I looked into are far inferior in many respects.

Siapa John Steinbck ni? Sebenarnya akupun tak lah kenal sangat dengan John Steinbeck ni, tapi ada satu coretannya yang sangat memberi kesan ke dalam jiwa aku, tentang mencari pensel yang sempurna. Sangat berguna, dan tepat untuk menyedarkan kita yang selalu mencari kesempurnaan pada diri orang lain, tanpa menyedari kekurangan diri sendiri.
For years I have looked for the perfect pencil. I have found very good ones, but never the perfect one. And all the time it was not the pencil but me. A pencil that is right some days is no good another day... (Journal of a Novel;, The East of Eden Letters, p:35)
Biografi Seorang Penulis bernama John Steinbeck (Penerima Anugerah Nobel dalam Kesusasteraan pada tahun 1962)
John Steinbeck (1902-1968), born in Salinas, California, came from a family of moderate means. He worked his way through college at Stanford University but never graduated. In 1925 he went to New York, where he tried for a few years to establish himself as a free-lance writer, but he failed and returned to California. After publishing some novels and short stories, Steinbeck first became widely known with Tortilla Flat(1935), a series of humorous stories about Monterey paisanos.
Steinbeck's novels can all be classified as social novels dealing with the economic problems of rural labour, but there is also a streak of worship of the soil in his books, which does not always agree with his matter-of-fact sociological approach. After the rough and earthy humour of Tortilla Flat, he moved on to more serious fiction, often aggressive in its social criticism, to In Dubious Battle (1936), which deals with the strikes of the migratory fruit pickers on California plantations. This was followed by Of Mice and Men (1937), the story of the imbecile giant Lennie, and a series of admirable short stories collected in the volume The Long Valley (1938). In 1939 he published what is considered his best work, The Grapes of Wrath, the story of Oklahoma tenant farmers who, unable to earn a living from the land, moved to California where they became migratory workers.
Among his later works should be mentioned East of Eden (1952), The Winter of Our Discontent(1961), and Travels with Charley (1962), a travelogue in which Steinbeck wrote about his impressions during a three-month tour in a truck that led him through forty American states. He died in New York City in 1968.

Construction on a controversial new middle school in Montgomery County is back on after the Upper Perkiomen School Board reversed a decision to stop the project.
The project was originally approved by the prior school board of directors, but the current school board stopped the project earlier this month over concerns of the tax payer cost.
But Tuesday that same board voted 5 to 4 to reverse that decision.
So far nearly $8 million has been spent on the project.

MSC Cruises officially launched its latest ship at the weekend with a glittering christening ceremony for MSC Seaview in Genoa.
Hollywood icon Sophia Loren cut the ribbon on her 13th MSC ship at the event held in Genoa on Saturday.
More than 60 UK travel agents attended the ceremony along with local dignitaries, Italian celebrities and other cruise line bosses Arnold Donald, chief executive of Carnival Corporation and Silversea chairman Manfredi Lefebvre d'Ovidio.
Seaview takes MSC's fleet to 15 and its third ship to come into service in 12 months. It is sister ship to MSC Seaside which launched last year.
Designed for warmer climates, it has the highest ratio of outdoor space of any MSC vessel and will be based in the Mediterranean before transferring to Brazil for winter.
MSC has more ships on order than any other line with 12 being built between 2017 and 2026.
Speaking on board chief executive Pierfrancesco Vago said there was "absolutely no risk" of over-capacity and suggested the European market had the potential to double in size.
Seaview began her maiden voyage from Genoa on Sunday on a western Mediterannean itinerary calling at six ports including Marseille, Barcelona and Naples.

Godzilla vs. SpongeBob is an episode created by Gojirules54.
The people of Bikini Bottom are having a normal day, when suddenly, Godzilla rises out of Goo Lagoon and begins a rampage throughout the city! Meanwhile, at the Chum Bucket, Plankton launches his deathkraft, the Planktonmobile, and starts his own rampage with it! When he sees Godzilla, he decides to join forces with him, and together they level much of the city. Meanwhile, SpongeBob flies in on a plane, and Godzilla gives chase! SpongeBob fights Plankton and destroys his deathkraft. Then he fights Godzilla and Godzilla grabs the plane! Meanwhile, Patrick is taking a nap on a bench and awakens to see the events unfold, and he asks himself "what would Mermaidman do?" then he hears a voice in his head telling him that he should assemble the shrink ray used by Mermaidman and Barnacleboy to battle the Goldfish Goliath and use it to shrink Godzilla down to size! He finds all the pieces and confronts Godzilla, saying "so, Mr. Lizard, you think you're so big, well let's see if we can bring you down to size!" Spongeb\Bob rushes to Patrick, and says to him "that was pretty clever Patrick, I've gotta hand it to you !" Patrick responds with "yeah, I don't know what got into me!" Then Patrick goes off to face Godzilla in the final battle, firing at his vulnerable parts to reduce him down to size, eventually reducing him to Plankton's size, but Godzilla soon begins to grow back to his original size, as Patrick forgot to switch the shrink ray from temporary to permanent, and Godzilla vaporizes him and SpongeBob and destroys the rest of the city!

Keep pain away
Your Health
- Published 13.12.17
Many people suffer from pain in the neck, sometimes radiating down to the shoulders and arms. This used to be a disease of middle age. Now, young adults and even 11-year-olds complain of stiffness and pain.
The human head weighs around five kilograms, approximately 8 per cent of total body weight. Seven neck bones (cervical vertebrae) support this relatively heavy head. These bones are the smallest and weakest of all the vertebrae. They are separated by natural "washers" - little gel-like discs that act as shock absorbers and provide stability, flexibility and motility.
In childhood, the discs are composed of 85 per cent water. As age advances the water content decreases. The brittle discs can then break open, herniate or develop cracks. Damage heals poorly as the discs do not have good blood supply. The vertebrae come closer and the alignment is disturbed. The nerves to the shoulders and arms come out from between these bones. They can become pinched, causing pain and stiffness.
In people over 40, 60 per cent of X-rays show degenerative disc disease. Not everyone is, however, symptomatic. Pain can appear gradually or suddenly. It is usually sharp like an electric shock and runs down the arm.
The doctor makes a diagnosis from a physical examination, X-rays, and CT and MRI scans. Vitamin D, calcium and phosphorous levels should be checked to see if the problem started due to bone weakness.
Treatment involves pain relieving gels, heat and ice. A soft neck brace can be worn intermittently, especially during travel. Physical therapy is the mainstay of treatment. It helps to strengthen the neck muscles so that the bones are held in place even if there is degeneration. Flexion and stability exercises improve the function of the neck. Traction, massage and manipulation may be used. Pain relievers, anti-inflammatory drugs and anti-spasmodics can be tried. Surgery to remove the offending disc is usually the last resort.
School-going children with neck pain often have faulty posture while sitting in school, studying at home, watching television, or using cellphones and computers. They slouch, lean too far forwards, sit sideways, refuse to use the tables provided and manage to strain their neck muscles. In addition, they carry heavy schoolbags, often slung asymmetrically on one shoulder. As per government guidelines, the weight of a schoolbag - including all books - should not exceed 1.5kg before Class III, should be 2-3kg for classes III to V, 4kg for classes VI and VII, 4.5kg with regard to Classes VIII and IX and not more than 5kg for Class X. Unfortunately, these guidelines are seldom followed.
In young adults, the commute to college or workplace may be a long one. While seated on a bike, the back should be straight. In a car, the distance between the seat and the steering wheel should be adjusted so that the arms are slightly flexed. While using a computer or watching television, the screen should be at eye level.
Taking these precautions could save your neck.
To prevent neck strains, pains and degeneration
Maintain ideal body weight (height in meter squared X23)
• Do regular flexion and stretching exercises. Yoga is ideal.
• Maintain good posture while sitting and standing with shoulders straight and feet flat on the floor.
• Do not use a high pillow while sleeping.

Easter is a lot of people's favourite holiday (next to Christmas) for many reasons. Plenty of which have to do with time-honoured traditions and religious principles, but there are reasons of a sweeter variety too. One of the most delicious treats that emerge this time of year—5 months earlier is you're a supermarket apparently—is the simple, yet delicious, hot cross bun. I'm sure there are plenty of us out there who will be buying (or already have bought) some of these delightful baked goods over the next couple of months, but have you ever considered making some of your own? Well you're in luck, because we asked our star baker Heather Brown, to give us the low down on the perfect buns and indeed she did.
Meet Heather Brown
With 20 years of baking experience, Heather Brown takes great pride in running her own business delivering high quality, bespoke bakes for any occasion or event.
Heather is always tinkering in the kitchen to rustle up something new and she started her business in the belief that bespoke baking and catering can be so much more exciting that the often bland, beige buffets presented at events. In that vain, every order that Heather takes is specifically tailored to her client's needs and every menu is designed to make sure that the food is delicious, and the perfect compliment to any event.
Heather also has experience with and is available to work collaboratively with brands to help with blog or advertising content and can come up with bespoke recipes to fit with brand imaging and lifestyle shoots.
RECIPE: Hot Cross Buns
(Makes 12)
450g Strong White Bread Flour
2tsp instant yeast (1 sachet)
2 tbsp caster sugar
1tsp salt
50g butter
1 egg
200ml milk
1 orange (zest and juice)
2 tsp ground cinnamon
200g dried fruit (I've used dried cherries)
For the 'crosses':
75ml water 75g plain flour
For the glaze:
1tbsp granulated sugar 2 tbsp water
In a saucepan, add the milk, butter, orange juice and zest. Heat on a low heat so that the butter has melted and the mixture is lukewarm. Beat in the egg.
Place the flour in a large bowl, add the caster sugar, cinnamon and salt to one side of the bowl and the yeast to the other.
Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until they have combined to form a soft dough (you can add either more milk or more flour if necessary). Knead this dough for 10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic (this can be done using a stand mixer and dough hook if you have one). Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with cling film or a clean tea towel. Leave the dough in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Once the dough has doubled in size, tip out the dough onto the lightly floured surface and knead lightly for 1 minute. Tip your dried fruit onto the dough and knead the dough so that the fruit is distributed evenly throughout.
Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper. Cut the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball shape. Place the 12 balls onto the tray and lightly cover with cling film or a clean towel and leave for the dough balls to rise (about 45 minutes).
Preheat the oven to 200/180 fan/gas 6.
Whilst the dough is rising, mix together the plain flour and the water to form a paste. Once the 45 minutes are up, drizzle the cross shape across each bun – either with a spoon or using a small piping bag.
Bake the buns for 20 minutes (or until the buns are golden on top.
Whilst the buns are baking, heat together the sugar and water until the sugar has dissolved. When the buns come out of the oven, brush the sugar glaze over each bun for that glossy shine.

Founder of Team Clermont Publicity & PR and music consultant, Nelson Wells is an Explorer, a Publicist, a Consultant, an Entrepreneur, and a Dad of twin daughters. This site is home to only a few of his endeavors. – Athens, Georgia
Founder of Team Clermont Publicity & PR and music consultant, Nelson Wells is an Explorer, a Publicist, a Consultant, an Entrepreneur, and a Dad of twin daughters. This site is home to only a few of his endeavors. – Athens, Georgia
Nelson Wells sold his first startup company at the age of 21. Now he is on his 5th venture facilitating the launch of other technology startups and consulting in fields as diverse as blockchain investing (Bitcoin) and music marketing. Wells' company, Team Clermont PR was the first of its kind to accept crypto currencies like Bitcoin and Litecoin for music or tech PR campaigns. He actively consults and still finds time for designing and prototyping his own inventions as a "toolshed" inventor while heading up PR firm, Team Clermont.
Currently you may find Wells filling any one of the following roles: mentor & angel investor at FourAthens, the newest technology incubator in the Southeast, as President & CEO of tech & music PR firm #TeamClermont, speaking about PR & marketing at conferences like SXSW, Geekend, or CMJ, or surfing different waves in Nicaragua, Costa Rica or France.
As CEO of Team Clermont Wells lead the team through its first 20 years tripling its valuation in a niche market in less than three years. Team Clermont has since quickly become North America's premier boutique music & tech PR firm specializing in National Publicity campaigns, independent Radio marketing, and film and TV sync licensing promotion. Nelson began Team Clermont in 1997 as the independent radio promotion division of his PR firm, Wells & McLean, Inc with partner Jimmy McLean, artist manager for such Southern acts as Jason & The Scorchers, Five-Eight, and Allgood.
In 2001, Wells expanded the company to incorporate a full-service traditional media department and an online media department. In 2004 Wells & team were the first Music PR company to officially service a full list of blogs with their clients' recordings making the team a household name with online press.
Now 20 years of successful music PR campaigns has catapulted Team Clermont to the top of their field. Clients include Warner Bros. Records, Mute Records, Astralwerks, Domino, R.E.M., Asthmatic Kitty, Merge Records, SubPop, SXSW, Forbes blockchain contributor and author George Howard and more.
In 2002 Wells formed a property investment company for developing, restoring, and marketing renewable, green, coastal and historic properties in Savannah, Tybee Island, GA, Daufuskie Island, SC, and Athens, Georgia. He has since sold the majority of shares in this company and is focussing his time and efforts as CEO of Team Clermont, and on funding and advising small startup software ventures, surfing waves, crafting handy inventions that may change the world or may only improve his kitchen technique, and taking care of his twin daughters.
For consulting services contact Nelson Wells below. [Consulting services may include technology startup launch marketing, public relations for tech startups, public relations for record labels, pr and radio marketing for artists and musicians, startup consulting for those interested in investing in blockchain assets such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Stellar.org's XLM Lumens, IOTA, or any other crypto-currency. Disclaimer: Nothing contained herein should be construed as investment advice.]
It seems like Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are still all over the news everywhere we turn, and we're only just getting used to the fact that it's a new year. Resolutions, fitness, and spring cleaning all start to flood our collective conscious and some of those dreams disappear as quickly as they arrive. Well, my own …

For 10 years now I have owned my "dream off-road vehicle" or at least my dream Land Cruiser for the first 5 years. Now my needs have changed, but my love for the Land Cruiser has not. See when I first researched LC's I had just spent a few short budget surf vacations surfing in …

At Team Clermont we host a ton of playlists. We do that because we work with dozens of artists; unsigned bands, signed groups, indie-rockers, singer-songwriters – you name it, we have it on our roster. So it's so refreshing when we take a step back at times like this, right now, in this moment, and …

I hope everyone has a wonderful Halloween!
I made two small projects for everyone's enjoyment today!
For the first i made a small card. I added a small pocket and used orange stickles to
enhance it. I had to put a candy on the pocket, and then I finished it off with a bow.
Then I made another project. I used a skeletons as the theme for this one.
It needed something to make it stand out, so green glitter was the answer for me!
I used stamps to tie in the theme and used glitter on them too!
I put rinestones in the skeleton's eyes to make them shine!
I hope you like it!
Happy Halloween!

Basic Mechanics
- Eat blobs smaller than you (duh). Every time you eat a blob, you get bigger in size.
- Smaller blobs move faster than larger blobs.
- When you press the space bar, you can split send 50% of your mass flying at a blob to eat it.
- Use the W key to eject some mass in the direction you were moving. You can do this to increase the speed of your blob or to feed a virus.
- You must be 25% larger than another blob to eat it.
- Every blob loses mass passively with time. The larger you are, the more mass you lose.
- Your score corresponds to the largest you have been in your current life.
- You can split into a maximum of 16 blobs.
- 22,500 is the current maximum size of a single blob. You can get a larger score than 22,500 if you split and the sum of all of your blobs totals more than 22,500. However, once your blob combines again, the size of your blob will go back to 22,500.
- Viruses are green 'spikey' blobs that cause blobs larger than them to explode into many smaller parts if they touch them. At around 150 mass, you will explode if you touch a virus.
- Blobs smaller than size 130 can hide inside of viruses without exploding. You can use this defensively if being chased by a larger blob.
- If you press w into a virus, you can feed the virus. When a virus is fed 7 times, you will create a new virus in the direction you were feeding it. You can use this offensively to split a larger blob into many smaller parts.
- If someone is trying to feed a virus into you, you can react by feeding the virus back in their direction. Not only will this prevent your own blob from getting hit by a virus, it will cause your opponent to split up into many pieces, which you can then absorb.
Other Mechanics
- When you reach a certain size, you can unlock the ability to display the mass of your blob in game. Simply press the tool bar next to Play and select show mass. This will show you how big your blob is in game and you will be able to see how much mass you are losing passively.

What will happen if what we read, is not similar to what we see and what we gonna say???
I suddenly across this matter during my polymer degradation lecture. The lecturer pop up this question to us and test us if we can answer it. And eventually, i've seen this before as i watched the Clever Malaysia Edition on Astro TVIQ with my cousins and my brother. And guess what??? Wanna try this and challenge yourself???
What you should do is :
1 - Read the images above with the word stated for about 3 times.
2 - Try to read it again but this time change it according to the colour the word stated such as green instead of blue.
Easy to read or your tongue just twisted to the words stated rather the original colour on the writing itself???
Question for all of you out there... What we should do to read the colours according to its original colours rather than the colours that embedded on the words?? Do we need to change the arrangements of the words?? or do we need to change the font of the writing??? Do you know the answers???
The Answers is....
Change the font of the words.
Example, for those who does not know about mandarin writing and if we change the words such as blue to a mandarin writing, we might be able to recognise the color easier and without any stopping between the words. But this also depends on the understanding of the person itself. Depending on how they understand and know how to read the writing.
To a scientific fact told by my lecturer, human brain also can degrade and sometimes can't accept the fact that color and writing must be as stated and not by changing the fact easily. It is because, once human brain already received the information as stated, it will be hard for it to changed from the information stored to channel it to a new information to be delivered.

If J.J. Abrams and Rian Johnson can do it, why not Colin Trevorrow?
The "Jurassic World" filmmaker is in the early stages of planning the ninth episodic installment of the "Star Wars" film franchise which will premiere in 2019.
Appearing on a panel alongside Christopher Nolan and Rachel Morrison at the Sundance Film Festival this past week, Trevorrow explained (via Heat Vision why he believes that period films should be shot on film and not digitally:
"The only place where I tend to not be able to attach myself entirely to something shot digitally is when it's a period film. There's something in my brain that goes, 'Well, they didn't have video cameras then'. Film tends to remind us of our memories, of our childhoods, the way we used to see films."
During the panel he confirmed he wants to shoot "Star Wars: Episode IX" on film, not digital, for the reasons he outlined above:
"[It] gets back to my issue of shooting digital for period films. I could never shoot Star Wars on anything but [film] because it's a period film: It happened a long time ago!"
He also mentioned that he's looking into shooting some background plates in actual outer space, in the process seemingly confirming Episode IX will also sport some IMAX photography:
"I asked the question, 'Is it possible for us to shoot IMAX film plates in actual space for Star Wars, and I haven't gotten an answer yet, but they've shot IMAX in space!"
The comments follow on from a week of small but interesting little "Star Wars" tidbits.ET Online revealed that not just Lin-Manuel Miranda but J.J. Abrams himself is singing in the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" scene where Han Solo, Rey, and Finn enter Maz Kanata's cantina for the first time.
Later in the sequence, during the stormtrooper assault, it has been revealed that filmmaker Kevin Smith is the one who says the line: "We have incoming at 28.6! Move!."
Finally, and just a few minutes ago, C-3PO actor Anthony Daniels tweeted that he's gotten a chance to read the script for "Star Wars: Episode VIII".
Just read Ep VIII and thought I'd share the story with you because I know you can't wait to hear it too. You do want to hear it. Don't you?

The death of dreams
One of the hardest things to deal with in times of loss and grief, is the attendant loss of that which never was. It's an issue when someone in our lives dies, in the breakdown of relationship, the loss of a home, a job, or any aspect of your way of life. All the things you imagined would be, all the dreams you wove around that thing have to now be dismantled, or rebuilt somewhere else. It's a hard process, made more so by being invisible and difficult to explain. The more disproportionately you have invested in relation to what was actually there, the more it hurts, and the more silly you get to feel along the way.
I'm getting fond of blog posts with soundtracks, and for me this song encapsulates something about the secret grief that is a dead dream.
Life is not kind to dreams, and often…

Some marriages aren't meant to last, and they end in divorce. Dividing your property can be one of the most difficult parts of your divorce, especially if you didn't intend for some items to become marital property. Things that you might want to divide include property like your house, bank account, cars, furniture and even artwork. What about artwork that is created by your spouse or yourself? Can you seek compensation for objects that could produce future revenue?
Technically, any artwork created during the marriage is actually marital property. That means that you or your spouse could ask to claim artwork that was created and intended to be sold or simply was used as decoration in the house during the asset division process. Copyright is also considered to be community property in a marriage. Although this may make you feel that you can lose your entire art collection or that your work is at risk, not everything is divided. Any art you created before your marriage or produced after you separated or filed for divorce is not considered to be marital property. Even payments that were agreed upon before the marriage, like commission payments, won't be divided in the divorce since they were not yet present in the bank account or in your possession.
If you're an artist, be sure that you develop an inventory of the work that you have created. Detail which pieces were made before you were married and which were made during your marriage. If you can, write down the price at which they were sold, and if you have pieces that have not sold, indicate this and the price that you would sell them for. You will need to tell the court where the pieces are during the divorce proceedings, because if you hide them you could be part of a future lawsuit for withholding assets.
Value has to be assigned to artwork, so you may want to talk to a professional appraiser or work with your attorneys to negotiate a fair price. A dealer would be a good source for pricing information since there's no secondary market for an artist's work. Since cases are typically one of a kind, appraisals can vary. If you and your spouse can agree on a single appraiser, this will help move the case along.

"It's the first year of my life where I haven't gone through a winter," she says cheerfully. "I've never been so happy!"
A beautifully tailored item of clothing will mask countless movements of assembly, yards of fabric, decades of skill and craft. Mahaut Mondino, a Paris-raised, L.A.-based musical phenomenon masks a similar amount of activity. Mondino has agreed to meet here for a walk through the Reigning Men exhibit—a tribute to the history of men's fashion from 1715 to present day—at LACMA.
As Mondino moves through the hall of stiff, white mannequins, she relates some of her story: drawn to electronic music from an early age, she began writing songs using her voice and her laptop. Her father, a film director, and fashion photographer asked if he could use one of her tracks in a commercial. The song got the attention of managers and touched off a successful music career that brought her here to Los Angeles, almost a year ago. "It's the first year of my life where I haven't gone through a winter," she says cheerfully. "I've never been so happy!"
Mondino stops to examine a French nobleman's suit from the 1700s. She points out the details in the suit and what particularly excites her about the patterns: "Everything here has a meaning." When asked about the music video supporting her killer "Summertime" single, and the intention behind dressing herself and a team of young women in cheerleading outfits, she nods and smiles. "Visually, I imagined a video with people, a collective, something cheerful. And then thought… a cheerleading squad!'
"Cheerleaders do not exist in France," she continues, as she carefully examines a centuries-old suit coat. "When I first watched Bring It On (2000), I was obsessed with it! I knew all the songs. I lived in France, but I always fantasized about what America was like. I dreamed of having a locker!" She laughs lightly at the memory, as though achieving childhood dreams and assembling cheerleading squads were the most natural and effortless things in the world.

I am extremely bored of people telling me to Relax or to cool down. (Facebook & Twitter) Friends tell me to Chill, whatever that means. Surely not put my head in the freezer, though my friends know I will love it there (ooh!! So much of ice).
When you read something, it is difficult to assume the tone it was written in, unless of course emoticons serve their purpose. But I am not habituated of using emoticons. Is this the reason people assume the worst and believe that I am mad at them and ask me to "Chill"? I wonder why do people assume the worst?
Sometimes you get the feeling that every one is so concerned. Not about your health, but to set a pace which isn't too fast for them. Every one wants you to ease up so that they don't have to run faster. "Don't push", "Take a deep breath", "Think again", "Back off", "Relax", "Take it easy"!! OMG, you kidding me? Since when are you so concerned? When did you start playing so important a role in my life so as to tell me this? If not encourage, at least don't discourage?
What good is it going to do anyway? Pay the bills? Work will happen on its own? Why should you just sit back & relax? Why not plan the next meet or meet friends (if you think you have done enough work)?
I have decided to leave this lot of people alone. I won't bother replying to them. They are needed to slow down everyone cause apparently they can't keep the pace. If you slow down cause of them, it will be your fault. Now go ahead and do something constructive !! 🙂 🙂

The Nigeria's Flying Eagles has been eliminated from the FIFA U-20 World Cup New Zealand 2015. The team's coach is Manu Garba. Nigerians are disappointed by the dismal performance of the team. After crashing out in the round of 16 on Thursday June 11, 2015, the Coach Manu Garba said the Flying Eagles have learnt a lot from the FIFA Under-20 World Cup in New Zealand. The Nigerian side lost 0-1 to Germany in their Round of 16 clash in Christchurch to exit the competition.
U.S.A pushed past Nigeria on Tuesday June 16, 2015 in Vancouver, Canada by a 1-0 win. The victory allowed the U.S. to win Group D and advance into the elimination rounds of the tournament.
Nigeria's players also got into foul trouble, finding themselves the recipients of multiple yellow cards. Defender Sarah Nnodim got two of them, resulting in a red card and her ejection from the game. The loss to the U.S. eliminated Nigeria.

It's been such a beautiful weekend here in the east. Let's hope it continues for quite a while longer.
We took a morning stroll around the lake. What a difference a little bit of sunshine makes.
Oscar was asking for a swim!
I bet the water was chilly!
....... ready for the next throw.
Coffee and cake followed......... and a Bonio for Oscar!
The afternoon was spent knitting in the sun. I've just completed the back of Lear. Although the four row pattern repeat involves two rows of cabling, the pattern is easy to memorise and seems to work quite quickly. It produces a lovely thick, warm fabric.
Nothing like a few Spring flowers indoors, either, to keep that spring in your step!

Addressing reporters following President Trump's inauguration ceremony, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin expressed her utter surprise at learning that the position secretary of moose hunting "is apparently not a real thing."
"Donald assured me when I endorsed him that I would be guaranteed this spot in his administration," Palin stated, adding that her decades of experience tracking Elk in the Alaskan wilderness more than qualified her for any animal-murder based cabinet role.
However, after a comprehensive Wikipedia search, Palin ruefully admitted that the nation's highest executive office may lack such a position, noting that "in hindsight, the job description of year-long back-country moose destruction missions seemed too good to be true."
When questioned on whether she still plans to serve the incoming administration in another capacity, Palin responded "absofruitly! I'll just have to settle for my second choice of employment, senior adviser for African-American outreach." Sensing reporters' confusion, the former governor assured quizzical members of the press that she had a "great relationship" with Alaska's black community, explaining that "Kevin and I were good friends."

Welcome back, listeners! In this edition of the Mountain View Police Department's "Silicon Valley Beat," we are excited to introduce you to our newest unit — the Cyber Crime Unit.
As more of our lives are connected to the internet, more cyber crime opportunities arise. Here in Mountain View, we are thrilled to have Det. Britton Moore meet with us to discuss just what cyber crime is, what his day-to-day job is like and even more importantly, what you, Mountain View, can do to protect yourselves from becoming victims of cyber crimes.
Cyber crimes are not just email scams or false advertisements. They increasingly include incidents that involve social media and teenagers. In fact, below, we have included some tips for parents and teens on how keep themselves safe online!
But first, listen in on our interview with Det. Moore here!
TIPS: There are several ways to make sure that your children are being safe while using either social media apps or websites. Some social media apps that teenagers use today:
- Snapchat
- Kik
- Yik Yak
- Vine
If you allow your child to use social media, either online or on a smartphone, you could see some changes in their behavior. Some of it may be normal, but there are signs you should look for if you think something may be "off" with your child. Below are some signs to look for if you allow your child to use social media and you notice a change in their behavior.
- Does your teen get upset more frequently? Do small things upset them more than they should? What happens on social media could impact their attitude toward situations and toward others.
- If you take away a device (iPhone, iPad) that your child uses for social media and they become extremely angry, ask yourself why. Is it because you are taking the device away, or is it because there is something on a social media site they don't want you to see?
- Are your child's grades dropping in school? Has their use of social media increased?
- Does your teen spend a lot of time on their phone or on their computer inside their room? Do they prefer to keep their door closed and/or locked and not talk to family?
- Is your child using social media more and sleeping less? Are the more tired than usual?
If you allow your child to use social media, talk with them about what should and should not be shared with their peers and be aware of how you talk with them about being safe on social media.
- Teach your child about respect, both for themselves and others.
- Even though they delete it, anything your child puts online is permanent. Let them know that once they post a photo or video, it will always be available for someone to see.
- Make sure they understand that when they increase their online presence, all their posts – including pictures and videos – can be found someday when they apply to a job or to college.
- If you use social media, lead by example.
- Let your child know that suggestive photos are never ok. More often than not, the photos are shared with others.
- Make sure your kids know to never interact with people they don't know.
- Check the privacy settings of apps your child use to make sure they are not sharing their location. Also, be sure you know what apps your child uses.
- Make sure your teen knows that they can come and talk to you about a problem that happens on social media.
Tips for teens:
- Check your privacy settings. Make sure no one can see your location (where you are or where you live), see your email or see your phone number.
- Be smart about what you post. Are you ok with everyone seeing a photo that may seem funny now, but what about in a year? Five years? Remember, anything that goes online can never be deleted or erased permanently.
- Don't accept friend requests from people you don't know.
- Be yourself online. Don't pretend to be someone you aren't.
- Be safe. Don't talk about things you aren't comfortable discussing in-person with your friends or with family.

For the launch shoot we turned to the Claddagh Boatmen, who graciously allowed us access to their boatyard on a very cold December evening. Given the season, all boats are in dry dock for the winter so we had to be creative. Longstanding Galway United photographer Sean Ryan took the shoot and together with the help of players Colm Horgan, Vinny Faherty and Steven Folan as well as Peter Carpenter of Uhlsport/Teamsport we braved the elements for the love of the club! Below are some behind the scenes shots I took of the shoot.
Having access to the boats, and to the talented men who build them was an honour and made the shoot extremely memorable. Thank you again to the Peter Connolly and the Claddagh Boatmen, Sean Ryan our Photographer. Peter Carpenter for organising the visit and the players for
