Some towns and cities mark Australia Day with a sausage sizzle and a sack race but in 2017 the community of Latrobe in northern Tasmania will stand out from the crowd with a strongman competition.
Serving as a qualifying event for the national Arnold Strongman Classic, entrants can have a crack at tyre flipping, deadlifting a car, and truck pulling.
The muscle contest will be split into categories and held as part of the annual Henley-on-Mersey event, coinciding with Australia Day, and previously attracting crowds of up to 8000 people.
Elsewhere on the island state there will be more traditional Australia Day festivities including sailing, rowing and surf lifesaving regattas.
About 10 citizenship ceremonies will be held across Tasmania, including one of the largest at Hobart's Sandy Bay, where more than 80 people are expected to take the oath.
"I am delighted to be presenting this year's Australia Day citizenship certificates to more than 80 new Australians who represent more than 20 countries," Lord Mayor Sue Hickey said.
"We haven't seen a citizenship ceremony this big in Hobart for many years, and the Hobart ceremony will be the largest in the state."
The state government is encouraging Tasmanians to fire up the BBQ on Thursday and tuck in to some locally produced lamb.
"Not only is eating lamb on Australia Day a very Australian thing to do, you are also supporting local jobs and businesses," Liberal MP Roger Jaensch said, adding that the island state produces more than three per cent of the nation's lamb.

3 Osem Bamba Peanut Snack small.No.1 selling snack in Israel
Bamba is the best-selling snack and the strongest children's brand name in Israel. It's secret lies in the combination of good nutrition and the unique flavor that Israelis love so much.
Bamba was first produced with a cheesy flavor in 1963, but in 1964 it was changed to the familiar peanut flavor we know so well today.
A tasty, nutritious snack. Bamba has become an integral part of Israeli culture; two generations of Israelis have grown up on Bamba.
With vitamins, natural ingredients, no food colouring, no preservatives, no sugar added, not fried.

Many times people make comments like," I remember when I used to have those" or "I remember those days" they say it like they want these things back. There are so many things in our past we can't have back and continuous wishing that you still have them, will depress you. I can not have my teenage years back, so is wishing I could still pack up and leave my house now be considered wired. The past is there to show us how far we have come and encourage us to push forward into the future to achieve more.
Accepting the present, helps you appreciate what you had and where you are going to.
Leave the past and face the future. I found this poetry on https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/tag/living-in-the-present
Laugh, I tell you
And you will turn back
The hands of time.
Smile, I tell you
And you will reflect
The face of the divine.
Sing, I tell you
And all the angels will sing with you!
Cry, I tell you
And the reflections found in your pool of tears –
Will remind you of the lessons of today and yesterday
To guide you through the fears of tomorrow."

Your mare is guaranteed excellent care, throughout their stay. All mares are treated as individuals & any special feeding or care can be organised.
Grass Livery (zero rated so no VAT on Grass livery)
Full stabled Livery during Stud season (plus VAT)
Any special requirements can be catered for. We are always happy to discuss your individual requirements
A block of 12 x 18 boxes.
Our procedure for new and incoming mares is designed with safety, efficiency, and value in mind.
In order to understand a mare's cycle, and therefore when covering will be safest and most effective, mare's will be 'tried' or 'teased' with the stallion.
Once a mare comes into season she will be covered by the stallion.
At 13 days after the first covering a scan required for pregnancy, this being the earliest point at which conception can be recorded.
Two further scans will be taken after this initial scan in order to certify that the mare is pregnant and does not 're-absorb' as well as the vital checking for twins, which thoroughbred horses are unlikely to deliver successfully.
These scans take place at 21 and 28 days after the first covering at which point mares may return to their owners.
Below is a list of requirements that we insist you undertake before sending your mare:
Mares staying at Fiddes Racing Stud receive a number of benefits from our establishment including excellent, appropriate nutrition, plentiful grazing from Spring to Autumn and comfortable stabling during the Winter evenings.
Our vet ????, from the ????? Vets practice, specialises in equine reproduction and has the experience and tools to offer first class care at Fiddes Racing. Please check out our Vet Scheme for peace of mind of costs and treatment during your mare's stay. Normally mares are fed three times a day as well as ad lib grade A haylage. During the autumn they may have additional feeding and supplements if necessary.
Mares they are turned out during the day in all-weather paddocks for exercise and to enjoy the fresh air. Mares are usually teamed in pairs so that they are relaxed and happy in their particular group. Our stabling is warm and comfortable with beds usually being made from Equinola and kept to a high standard of cleanliness. With these benefits and an experienced team of staff we endeavour to give your mare the best care possible whilst at Fiddes Racing.
Our approach is to fully understand the needs of our customers and deliver on our promises.

My dad's mantra while I was growing up and I still follow it. I had a huge crave today. So bad I was nervous in the shower. I put on a patch and 2 hours later it was still strong. I took a lozenger and it started to diminish.
I don't know if I would have had that bad of a craving if I had the patch on, but I don't want to take any chances with this quit so I will take the patches as reccomended. I just detest spending any money on anything nicotine related. But I hate smoking even more.

Hello class of 1979! 30 years, wow! Hope you all are well. I still think fondly of our high school years and of all of you. I hope and pray that you and your families are healthy and happy and that if you have rough times you have the faith and strength to endure. Scott and I reside near Las Vegas, NV. Our parents are in Grand Junction. We visit a couple of times a year. We still love our home, Colorado. Scott works on private jets at McCarran airport. He is a licensed A&P and Inspector and has specialized in Falcon Jets. I have a B.S. in Accounting and have worked all the way up to the Controller level. At this time, I am working on my own real estate rental business and give piano lessons. We both do volunteer work with our congregation. About 20 years ago I realized that my faith was the best thing that ever happened to me and decided to go forward with it. It has been a blessing since it led me to Scott, a happy marriage, family, and friends. If any of you ever have any questions about Jehovah's Witnesses, please be sure to send me an email or give me a call. I would be happy to visit with you. Best Wishes to you all! Sherry Hartman-Bohl

Role of Mass Media in Enhancing Education in Bangladesh
Education is much more than going to schools, its purpose is to create awareness among people.
From the committed blood donor in Nigeria to the German rock musician, Deutsche Welle's weekly radio magazine "Pulse" introduces you to individuals having an impact – both in Europe and beyond – and checks the heartbeat of youth today.
Twenty-five-year-old Abdullahi Idris in Abuja, Nigeria was afraid of needles. But watching his mother go through the traumatic births of his younger siblings made him aware of a great need in his area: Hospitals don't have enough donated blood on reserve. So the young man faced his phobia and paid a visit to the local blood bank in Abuja – and went back again and again. By the time he turned 25, Abdullahi had donated his blood 25 times, saving the lives of not only pregnant women in his community, but also those undergoing surgeries.
Abdullahi wanted to make an even bigger difference, so he founded Club 25, encouraging young people in Abuja to do what he had done: 25 blood donations by their 25th birthday. He and his friends certainly won't be stopping at 25.
Here's more on Abdullahi's story:
It's not possible to count the number of lives Abdullahi has already saved. But by bucking the trends his Generation Y has set, his impact has an even broader relevance. Abdullahi is not aiming to get the corner office on the top floor or drive the newest, loudest sports car. Instead, he's giving to others. And that's what makes him part of "Generation Change," 20-somethings who are committed to making a difference.
Generation Change is a weekly, multimedia series profiling young people from all over the world – from the US to China, or back here in Germany – who are sacrificing their time and energy to make a difference socially, culturally or politically. Each five-minute Generation Change report is featured in Deutsche Welle's weekly English-language radio magazine, "Pulse" (www.dw.de/pulse) and on the Generation Change blog (blogs.dw.de/generationchange), where users can get more information about the protagonists and their projects and share comments. The audio reports are also available for free as podcasts on iTunes.
For Abdullahi in Abuja, it was concern for his own mother that motivated him to make a change in his community; for Zhao Zhong in Gansu, China, it was a near-death experience. He was mountain climbing with a friend in Tibet when he fell down a three-storey crevice in the ice. Waiting 33 hours to be rescued, he carved his name in the glacier and pondered the nearness of death – and how he wanted to make the most of every day of his life.
Zhao Zhong, 29, had always been an outdoor enthusiast, but his accident made it clear to him that he urgently wanted to make even more significant, lasting changes. In Gansu, that meant raising awareness among residents for how severe water pollution had become in their region. Zhao Zhong started publishing a water pollution map and actively lobbying against the steel factories, coal mines and petrochemical plants that deposit their waste in his home region.
The Generation Change series is a weekly dose of positive news – a sharp contrast to most of the headlines we read and bulletins we hear.
The Generation Change series is a weekly dose of positive news – a sharp contrast to most of the headlines we read and bulletins we hear. But while the young people featured in the series are exceptional, the work they do in their local communities is tangible and something "Pulse" listeners can relate to, no matter what their background is. This means the stories in Generation Change can motivate listeners, and encourage them to get out and take action.
With a target listenership of 15-to-25-year-olds, "Pulse" uses DW's unique vantage point from the heart of Europe to offers insights from the continent on education, career planning and youth employment, but also on lifestyle trends and music.
In Germany, mandatory military service for young men was abolished in 2011 and the public school curriculum has been shortened from 13 years to 12. That means German universities are currently faced with a flood of applications – and housing in university towns is in short supply. It also means that young people are having more difficulties finding opportunities for vocational training and employment. These key issues are among those covered in-depth on "Pulse."
Despite the obstacles when it comes to finding a place to study and work, young German graduates are more likely to get jobs than their European counterparts. In countries like Portugal, Italy and Greece, youths are tossing out their degrees in political science or comparative literature and taking on practical jobs like baking or tailoring, or starting barter exchange programs that do away with money altogether.
Or, like Portuguese engineer Pedro Santos, they are going abroad. Pedro read in the newspaper that there were job openings in the small German town of Schwäbisch Hall. He wasn't the only one to read the article: 15,000 people sent emails to the town's employment office asking for a job. After a series of applications and interviews, Pedro eventually got lucky.
Now, he has an office on the fourth floor in the main office of Ziehl-Abegg, a German company that builds electrical ventilators and motors. Pedro is grateful to have a well-paying job, but he misses the ocean and the fish in his home country, and is struggling to improve his German language skills. Whether they live in Canada, Argentina or Kenya, many "Pulse" listeners know first-hand what it's like to start over in a new country. According to the feedback emails DW receives, many others are considering making that major step, and personal stories like Pedro's can open new perspectives.
Listen to Pedro's story here:
Even more personal insights on how European youths are creatively coping with the euro crisis can be found in DW's award-winning multimedia special, "Plan B – Youthful Solutions to the Crisis" (www.dw.de/planbenglish).
Everyone knows Justin Timberlake, Pink and Lady Gaga. But who are the latest voices coming out of Germany?
"Pulse," however, is certainly not all work and no fun. And, no matter which country you live in, fun almost always has something to do with music.
Everyone knows Justin Timberlake, Pink and Lady Gaga. But who are the latest voices coming out of Germany, and which beats are flowing through the earphones of your average 20-year-old in Hamburg or Munich?
"Pulse" regularly plays current hits from the top of the German charts and profiles big names that come through, like Deichkind, Cody Simpson and Asaf Avidan. But, more importantly, "Pulse" features Germany's home-grown, up-and-coming talent.
After years of German musicians practicing their "th" to make their English-language songs accessible to an international audience, more and more young German bands are returning to their native language.
One band, the Alex Mofa Gang, which recently performed live in the "Pulse" studio, has found an even closer connection to the German language. Lead singer Sascha Hörold wrote a novel that accompanies his character, Alex Mofa, over a decade, beginning in his mid-20s with the end of a long relationship. Alex strives for greatness and longs for love, but finds himself distracted by bars and strange beds, fame and Sunday night television. There's something in the story that any 20-something can relate to.
Creatively linking words and music, the band's new album is the soundtrack to the book, which is set to be officially released in January 2014.
Off air in the Pulse studio, the Alex Mofa Gang explained the meanings behind their colourful tattoos and Sascha confessed that the novel – titled "Die Reise zum Mittelmaß der Erde" (Journey to the Mediocrity of the Earth), a play on Jules Verne's "Journey to the Center of the Earth" – was his first literary effort. Music, on the other hand, has accompanied him all his life.
Listen to the interview here:
Despite the geographical and cultural distance, what The Alex Mofa Gang, Pedro Santos and Zhao Zhong have in common is an inner passion that drives them to achieve and have an impact on their surroundings. And getting to the heart of the individual is at the heart of "Pulse."

Before any official announcement for the HTC's flagship device of this year, HTC One M9 has already been listed on an online retail website in US. The device that has been listed at BestBuy is a 32 GB AT&T variant of One M9 with a price tag of $649.99 (around Rs. 40,000). It is not available for the sale yet but carries a "Coming Soon" tag.
Previously, a video teaser was unveiled by the company saying, "Join us live at Mobile World Congress on March 1st to see that's next from HTC," which was quickly followed by another video giving a hands-on review of the yet to be announced device.
The new HTC M9 is packed with two front speakers, metal body with the brushed finish. The e-commerce website reveals that the device runs on Android 5.0 Lollipop supported by a 2.0 GHz 64-bit, octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor coupled with a 3 GB of RAM. The 4G LTE smartphone is featured with a 5-inch super-LCD with 1920×1080 of resolution and a 20 megapixel of rear camera. However, the site claims that the device comes with a 4.0 ultra-pixel of front-facing camera.
HTC will be broadcasting the One M9 live event on its YouTube channel. There are only a few hours left for the highly anticipated event to begin, and TeCake ensures its readers about the entire coverage and an expert review and first impressions of the device later today.

I've been reasonably quiet recently and that's not because I'm having a whale of a time being awesome and adventurous; I'm currently in the middle of working through a 6 day week.
I've never experienced exhaustion like this before. It's strange because I feel like I shouldn't be tired. The most hours that I work a day are 6 and work is only a fifteen minute walk away (unlike when I worked at school and travelled 40 minutes each way), yet I'm really, really struggling to function and stay alert. I've put it down to the fact that I'm not necessarily in a job that I want. It's hard working towards goals that you don't want, that you never saw yourself doing. It's always difficult after graduating from university – you're filled with so much ambition and think that with a degree everything is going to fall into place and your ideal career is just waiting for you. It isn't. It works out for some people, but for most, like me, it hasn't so far. That could be why I feel so pants lately. Who knows.
What I need is to chug a Starbucks (conveniently next door) and push on. Something good better happen soon before I give up!
Peace out.

The Alabama Legislature is once again considering legalization of a state lottery. It is a no-brainer, yet our regal legislators struggle with making a positive decision.
It just boggles the mind as to their reluctance to do that. The prison system is financially bankrupt, education is in dire need of financial support, and roads and bridges are crumbling. Alabama is facing a federal mandate to fix the prison system and remains one of the basket cases as far as educational support. Legislators are fiddling while Rome burns.
The need for additional money to support state programs is real, and the money will either come from more taxes or other sources. One of those sources could be legalized gambling, so why does Alabama always have to be the last stagecoach out of Dodge?
We are surrounded by legalized gambling, which pays state and federal taxes. Mississippi is enjoying the revenue generated by legalized gambling, and a lot of those tax dollars are coming from Alabamians who travel just across the border to enjoy the Mississippi casinos.
However, the Indian casinos in Alabama are federal and state tax exempt. Alabama realizes no tax income from those casinos.
Gambling on Indian reservations nationwide earned $26.5 billion in 2011, and ownership of casinos by 236 Indian tribes totaled 422 facilities across 28 states. This data is eight years old and the number has increased exponentially since then.
In 2017, Indian gaming revenue increased to $32.4 billion. By comparison, the Las Vegas strip had revenue of $17.8 billion, which counted dollars for rooms, food, beverages and gaming combined. Gaming revenue accounted for only $6 billion. Las Vegas revenue from gambling pales in comparison to the Indian casinos.
Gambling participants, namely winners of jackpots totaling $1,200 or more on slots, video poker machines and other games, pay federal taxes on winnings. Those taxes do not affect the casinos' bottom line.
The difference between Las Vegas casinos and Indian casinos is that Indian casinos can set their own payment schedules and have no clear rules to display for the general public payout percentages. Las Vegas casinos are required by the Nevada gambling commission to pay a certain percentage of the gambling proceeds.
There also are social issues with having legalized gambling. Research has shown increases in suicide, theft and bankruptcy in areas within 50 miles of a casino. However, legalized gambling is already prevalent in Alabama and the pros far outweigh the cons.
The question is, will state legislators continue to allow the revenue from legalized gambling to line the coffers of Indian casinos with no benefit for the state, or will they pass gambling laws that will introduce Alabama to the 21st century?
Allocation of gambling tax dollars will always be an impediment to an agreement by state legislators. I have a simple answer to that dilemma; Simply earmark all the increased revenue to education.
Legislators know Alabama has one of the poorest school systems in the U,S. "Throwing money at the inequities of our school system is not the answer" is a common phrase. Well, let's find out if that is a true statement. With proper allocation of increased taxes derived from legalized gambling, Alabama could have a great and exceptional school system.
Gambling is a form of entertainment. The casino environment is stimulating. But the first place to start is legalizing the lottery, which begins with a Legislature that continues to dither about what kind of lottery the state will have.
Gambling is here; are we smart enough to take advantage of its financial potential, instead of facing more new taxes?

Ten fingers, ten toes, that intoxicating new-baby smell—your little one is perfect. But her gut microbiome is very likely missing something that all babies used to have: a special strain of good bacteria called B. infantis.
B. infantis plays a key role in a healthy gut, which in turn leads to the development of a healthy immune system. But the unintended consequences of some modern medical practices have caused B. infantis to go missing from the gut microbiomes of babies, particularly in the US and other developed nations.
You can provide B. infantis to baby with a special probiotic called Evivo™, which is clinically proven to restore B. infantis to your baby's gut microbiome. But first, it helps to know why B. infantis is important, and why your baby is missing it.
What is B. infantis?
The "gut microbiome" is just the name for all the bacteria that live naturally in your baby's gastrointestinal system, her stomach and intestines. These bacteria break down and digest breastmilk, plus they prevent harmful microbes and germs from implanting into the gut lining and making the baby sick.
One crucial strain of good bacteria is called B. infantis, and it feeds on a special component of breastmilk called human milk oligosaccharides, or HMOs. There are more than 150 HMOs in breastmilk, and B. infantis consumes HMOs and flourishes, crowding out bad bacteria. As a little side bonus, the process results in extra usable nutrition for the baby, too, in the form of fatty acids.
Why do modern babies lack B. infantis?
At birth, a baby is inoculated with bacteria from her mother. That bacteria used to always include B. infantis—it made up a huge part of the baby gut microbiome. And in developing countries, it still does. Babies born in places like Malawi and Gambia have plenty of B. infantis occurring naturally, and the associated reduction of bad bacteria in the gut microbiome is credited for a reduced risk of allergies, childhood diabetes, colic, and eczema.
But in industrialized countries like ours, modern medical practices have had the side effect of reducing how much B. infantis occurs naturally. In fact, B. infantis can be effectively missing from the gut micromes of up to 97 percent of babies born in developed countries today. It's thought that the rise of antibiotics, antibacterial products, C-sections, and infant formula has led to this change, although obviously those advancements have brought plenty of benefits, too.
How to bring B. infantis back
Parents want to give their babies everything, and thanks to Evivo, you can give your baby the B. infantis missing from her gut. Evivo is a powdered probiotic containing live, activated B. infantis, specially formulated to mix with breastmilk and unlock all the potential of those HMOs and the rest of the nutrients that make breastmilk so amazing.
Parents can mix a pack of Evivo with a few milliliters of breastmilk and dropper-feed it to the baby once a day, for as long as she's still breastfeeding. It's clinically shown to restore B. infantis to baby's gut microbiome—the way it used to be.

Misrepresentation of Color and Product Photos
mizuhead - 02 Mar 2018
I am a loyal fan of Nike; however, I have run into a situation where the product representation within the Product Photo and color of the actual product was so off that I was extremely disappointed. In the Product photos, the colors "Gunsmoke" and "Midnight Fog" look black and very comporable; however, when I ordered "Midnight Fog" colorway, the product was extremely 'grey' in color. There should be some way to tell the differences from either the Description or Photos that the two products are different in color since the representation was very misleading.

Several weeks after Gov. Phil Murphy signed legislation earmarking $5 million for an innovative media-funding consortium that is trying to boost local journalism in New Jersey, a state budget mix-up has kept the group from getting off the ground.
By all indications, Murphy and lawmakers remain committed to the local-journalism initiative, which is intended to help fill the void created by newspaper cutbacks and other media struggles that have left many communities in New Jersey with little to no local news coverage.
But Murphy said in a recent bill-signing statement that the proposed New Jersey Civic Information Consortium cannot now be funded in the way lawmakers had originally intended because the pot of money they identified as a revenue source has already been committed to other purposes.
Lawmakers have since introduced a new measure that seeks to use the state's General Fund to provide the consortium with the $5 million in seed money. Supporters of the media initiative — considered to be the first of its kind in the nation — hope to see that bill get to the governor's desk as soon as possible.
"The only way for the consortium to succeed is if it's fully funded," said Mike Rispoli, director of Free Press Action Fund's News Voices project, which helped organize grassroots support for the proposed consortium.
A nonprofit venture
Under the legislation enacted by Murphy last month, several New Jersey-based colleges and universities would help administer grants that would be awarded to groups proposing ways to bolster local news coverage in the state. They are The College of New Jersey, Montclair State University, New Jersey Institute of Technology, Rowan University and Rutgers University.
The law calls for the consortium to operate as a nonprofit, with a 13-member board consisting of two appointed by the governor, and one each by the leaders of the state Assembly and Senate. The five college and university leaders would also each get to pick a board member, and another four would then be selected by the original group of nine.
The law requires some board members to have backgrounds in media and technology and for there to be overall partisan balance among the 13. Language in the law also stresses that those receiving grants must operate "independently from the influence of the State, a member university, and any other grantor or contributor of funds or outside source."
Supporters say the consortium would build on efforts launched by the state decades ago when it bought public-broadcasting licenses and created a public-television station in response to lax coverage of New Jersey issues by commercial stations based in New York and Philadelphia.
In fact, the original legislation for the consortium called for the seed money to come out of the more than $300 million the state received in 2017 after participating in a nationwide auction of broadcast airwaves. The auction was held by the federal government as part of an effort to free up more bandwidth for wireless providers; the state sold airwaves tied to stations based in Montclair and Trenton, but kept others based in Camden and New Brunswick to ensure service would not be impacted.
The money went to plug holes in state budget
But nearly all the money the state received from the auction — $332 million — was used by former Gov. Chris Christie's administration to fill budget holes. That left only $10 million for the state's Trust Fund for the Support of Public Broadcasting, and all those dollars have since been set aside for other purposes.
"After nearly $322 million in diversions by the previous administration, there was roughly $6.3 million left in the Public Broadcasting Authority fund, nearly all of which is already committed for critical capital needs and emergency repairs," Treasury spokeswoman Jennifer Sciortino said yesterday.
Earlier this week, Assembly Majority Leader Lou Greenwald (D-Camden) introduced legislation that would direct $5 million from the state's General Fund to get the consortium up and running. Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg (D-Bergen) has introduced a Senate version of the bill.
"The administration supports the concept behind the original bill and will review any new proposals by the Legislature," Sciortino said.
Still, amid the funding uncertainty, Rispoli decided to put Murphy on the spot by calling in to the "Ask Governor Murphy" program that was aired earlier this week by several public-radio stations that broadcast across New Jersey. During their interaction, Murphy told Rispoli he considers the consortium to be a "no-brainer" and urged him to "stay tuned." The governor also praised "the folks who do journalism the right way, who do the proper primary source research (and) consider all sources."
"We've got to hold that model up; that notion of free press is more important than ever before with all of the noise out there," Murphy said.
In an interview yesterday, Rispoli said Murphy's response was encouraging and he also credited the governor for saying "all the right things." Getting the consortium project this close to the finish line is a major accomplishment for its supporters, added Rispoli. "This is a really big deal," he said.

Dear Blank, Please Blank is a blog I'm surprised hasn't yet made this list. Considering the snark and wit that this blog is so notoriously known for, I can almost guarantee that any of you guys would also love 'Dear Blank'. What it is, is a collection of little rants about anything ranging from the atrocity that is Twilight, to the sandwich jokes women love to hate. Each entry begins with "dear", and ends with "sincerely". I apologize if you like Twilight by the way. Here's an example:
Dear Students,
I know when you're texting.
Sincerely, No one just looks down at their crotch and smiles.
There are different categories of these little rants that you can choose from, which include title listings such as: "You're a Douche", "Um, WTF", "How Dare They", and more. The blog is usually good about updating, too. Embarrassing as it is, I check it almost every day and always come across new content. Anyway, if you want a good laugh, check it out at www.dearblankpleaseblank.com

Wellness Shot
In a vegetable juicer (our favorite is the Omega Juicer) juice 2 parts turmeric, 1 part ginger, 1 part lemon juice (use a citrus juicer to squeeze the lemons) and some type of pepper to taste. We like using jalapeno or black pepper. Shake it up and drink one or two ounces at a time.
The pepper is needed to help the absorption of the curcumin. If you are using turmeric for therapeutic reasons, it's best to take it three times a day. That way it stays in your system all day long.
Great way to reduce inflammation in your body as well as many other benefits. Check out our blog for other healthy benefits.

Turmeric Tonic
Servings: Makes 2

Serve juice over ice, topped off with sparkling water and sprinkled with cayenne pepper.
Cooking with Turmeric
Turmeric is simple to cook with, but to unleash the full potency it has to be eaten warm in a dish that contains healthy fats — since many of the vital compounds are fat-soluble.
If you're using the whole root, peel the skin off with a potato peeler and finely mince as you would with ginger root. Saute with carrots, onions, celery, for any recipes that use cooked vegetables (like soups, stir-frys, chilies, stews).
If you're a fan of mashed potatoes or mashed sweet potatoes, simply add finely grated turmeric (1 teaspoon for every two potatoes). For the ground dried turmeric: add to your steak or chicken rub, add a pinch to salad dressings, or mix in to your marinara or hot sauce. Add dressing or sauce will easily accommodate a pinch without changing the flavor much.
If you're a smoothie fan like me, turmeric is the ideal booster to add to your smoothie repertoire. Orange turmeric pairs well with orange, pink or red superfoods like carrot, pumpkin, red bell pepper, raspberries, goji berries and citrus. Add 1 teaspoon of the minced root or 1/8 teaspoon ground to your smoothie ingredient list and blend away. Add finely grated or powdered turmeric to hot teas, coffee drinks, and low-sugar fruit juices like grapefruit and unsweetened cranberry.
Make natural food coloring: There's no reason to ever bake with artificial dyes like Yellow #5 and Yellow #6, when it's so easy to make with turmeric. Just boil some water, whisk in enough turmeric to create the yellow shade you want, and boil for 3 to 5 minutes. Allow it to cool and store it in a glass jar in the fridge – and that's it! If you want to use it to dye Easter eggs, simply add some vinegar to the dye
Amazing Cleaning Tip
It is best to wear gloves when working with turmeric. Temporary stains can be removed from hands, clothing and dishes with liquid Cascade dishwasher detergent. Bleach can also be used to remove turmeric stains but be careful not to use bleach on hands.

Emma Ruth Rundle @ Complex; Glendale CA
I ventured out last night to a show at Complex, in Glendale. I guess the last band I saw there was…Bongripper? Yeah, so last night was a very different show. Petheaven and Black Mare opened. I've been on an extreme Emma Ruth Rundle kick of late, so that's where my mind was for the entirety of the first two sets.
It started back in October when Ian suggested I check out Marked For Death. At the time it didn't really resonate. Life, doing what it so often does to us, found a reason to make it resonate when I approached it again recently.
As I wrote on Facebook last week, "I can't stop listening to the Emma Ruth Rundle record…I've so enjoyed it I got tickets to see her in Glendale at Complex, and became irate when I saw there's no local show on the Deafheaven / This Will Destroy You tour she'll be a part of starting later this month.
"It's a dark record, to be sure. At the time of its release I listened to it and sort of shrugged it off, but Marked For Death found me at the right time this week, and its darkness is nestling comfortably beside my own. It opens with a tale of two defeated lovers asking "Who else?" in the world could love them. And then comes "Protection," a song whose melody and message have been literally stuck to me for the past 48 hours.
"In the press release for Marked For Death Rundle said of the song, "The subject matter is largely about being defeated and shrunken into the base human themes of love and loss. It's a far cry from high art. It's very much from the dirt." I'd double-down on Emma's statement by saying I don't think it should be high art. The aesthetic value of a song like "Protection" does not reside in the sophistication of its melody or message. If you want to touch on the base human themes of love and loss — if you're feeling hopeless and despondent, if your longing and your needs go unrequited — the dirt is a better (and way more natural) vantage point from which to process your thoughts or emotions. And Rundle expertly captures the essence of the dirt as the black, gritty instrumentation seems to continually increase volume before exploding into those fuzzy instrumental bits that follow the choruses. The rawness of her words are equally…for lack of a better word…dirty.
"Yes, I'm well aware of the fact that I'm projecting right now. Leave me alone in my little dirt patch to process things."
So there she was, last night in Glendale, announcing to a packed room that she was incredibly nervous. This was apparently her first public performance with the current iteration of her backing band. I think any of us would be nervous on stage for the first time with a new cast around us. The first few songs of the night certainly had an uneasy energy to them. Maybe not uneasy…I would describe her stage presence during the first fifteen minutes or so as frenetic. She calmed considerably as the songs bled one into the next. In fact it might have been during "Protection" when she turned the corner and confidence finally appeared to conquer nerves. Later on she took her shoes off — if that's not comfort I don't know what is — and the night ended to rapturous applause and pleas for an encore. Not five minutes earlier she joked that she wasn't going to walk off the stage just to come back and play one more song, but even after a quieting, stunning performance of "Shadows of My Name," the crowd was not satiated. They stood and clapped and cheered for several minutes until a signal came from off-stage to cut the power and turn back on the lights. Could everyone in attendance have stayed another hour listening to the rest of her canon? Absolutely. Was it best to leave us yearning for more, or worse, looking at hotel room costs in San Francisco the night of that Deafheaven/This Will Destroy You show? Fuck yes.
I didn't keep track of the setlist but she played most of the songs on Marked For Death and a few from Some Heavy Ocean. If she tossed in a song from another release I wouldn't know its name anyway.

Parliament will decide this week whether to push through the change from the current prescription charge of £4.
If the regulations are approved the cost of a four-month pre-payment certificate (PPC) will also drop from £13 to £10 and the cost of a one-year PPC from £38 to £28.
Public health minister Shona Robison said that the planned reduction was 'great news' for patients.
'Not only will it bring us nearer to removing a 'tax on ill health' that people needing medicines shouldn't have to face, it's in line with the founding principle of the NHS that it should be free at the point of delivery,' she said.
She added: 'We strongly believe that this fully-budgeted policy is the right thing to do for the patients of Scotland. And by leaving more money in people's pockets, it's an example of how the health service is playing its part in Scotland's economic recovery.'
Liberal Democrat health spokesman for Scotland Ross Finnie said, in the current economic climate, extending reduced or free prescriptions to all should be a priority.
Last month, Healthcare Republic exclusively revealed concerns that plans to scrap prescription charges in England for patients with long-term conditions may fall by the wayside in the build-up to the general election.
An Asthma UK spokesman warned that, if there were to be a May election, the government would need to introduce legislation by February in order to have time to put legislation through. Changes would otherwise be relegated to a manifesto promise by Labour and were unlikely to be supported by the Conservatives, he said.

I pondered the comments from yesterday suggest'n I get me a new "first mate". First off, I'm too dad gum old to be even considering such a thing. First mates are permanent ya know, an' ya gotta treat 'em like a wife. Ya got to support 'em an' buy 'em "girlie" stuff. Listen to 'em ramble on bout "wimmins" stuff. An' there's always the age old "git out of bed an' bring 'em a glass of water an' a couple aspirins for a headache". Now I would do that, but not on a permanent basis.First mated can be very demand'n ya know.
The only thing I would consider at my age, other than a "first mate", would be a travel companion. Preferably one with extensive nursing skills. Just thought I would throw that in there *grin'n here*. Not that I'm even look'n for a travel companion or anything like that, but it gives me something to think'n about while I'm sit'n on "da porch" sip'n up a cup.
Ok....gonna try to publish this before it get's too long. You gonna have to come back later to see what else the old Billy Bob has to say for today.
Ok....published like it supposed to do.....Yeee haaw!
Now where were we??? First mates an' travel companions. Think I'll leave it at that.
Flooding in New Mexico. Holy cows, half of New Mexico is flow'n down the Rio Grande river. In fact, the Rio Grande was overflow'n it's banks up further north....had rapids. Elephant Butte Lake is fill'n faster than they can release it. This should be good news for Lake Amistad and Falcon Lake in Texas. As of yesterday, 4 people have died in the floods. Further east, the Pecos River is get'n it's share of the monsoon rains. More water for the lakes on the Rio Grande.
The Membres River, what normally flows underground in Deming has a above ground water flow of about 3 to 5 feet deep. This is a seldom seen sight in Deming.
After close to a week of rain an' chilly weather, 77 degs is a welcomed sight today. I'm think'n this storm is over. Temps in the mid to upper 80's predicted for next week. I can do that.

Shocking moment student drowns in the background of a selfie taken by laughing pals who hadn't realised he was in trouble
The dead teenager, named only as Vishwas G, 17, was enjoying a picnic near the city of Bangalore in south-western India's Karnataka state
THE final moments of a student who drowned were captured in a selfie taken by his laughing pals - who didn't know he was fighting for his life.
The dead teenager, named only as Vishwas G, 17, was enjoying a picnic with fellow students in south-western India's Karnataka state when the incident occurred.
They went for a swim in the pond during a college trip to a temple near Kanakapura, south of Bangalore, where Vishwas got into difficulties, unnoticed by his friends.
The group, from the National College continued laughing and posing for selfies in the water - not realising their friend had gone under the water behind them.
His grieving family later sat with his body outside the college to protest his death.
They claimed lecturers in charge of the trip had been negligent but called off the action after management promised an investigation and disciplinary action against any member of staff found to be at fault.
Police confirmed that Vishwas, the elder son of autorickshaw driver Govindaraju and his wife Sunanda, drowned in the 300-year-old temple pool.
Sumanth A, one of the students, said: "We had finished swimming and left for the Gundanjaneya temple and did not notice Vishwas' absence."
He added: "One of the students was looking through his phone pictures and was stunned to see Vishwas drowning.
"He immediately alerted the NCC unit chief, Professor Girish, and other friends, and by the time they returned to the Kalyani, an hour had passed.
"Vishwas was nowhere to be seen."
Police said Professor Girish was present at the time but college authorities claimed that no faculty member had accompanied the students.
Local police officers later pulled Vishwas' body from the pond and his parents rushed to the scene after they were alerted by his friends.
Ramanagara district SP Ramesh Banoth said: "The students came to the spot with Professor Girish, of the National Cadet Corps (NCC), and the incident happened when the students were taking selfies."
Kaggalipura police said around 25 students, all NCC cadets from the Jayanagar college, had been on the trip.
They disregarded a sign warning people not to swim and "plunged in", a police officer said.
A police spokesman said: "Govindappa filed a complaint alleging that negligence by the National College management cost his son his life.
"We registered a case of unnatural death, based on the complaint, and may register a case against the college management if a probe confirms their negligence."
The spokesman added that police had not yet questioned the other students, as they had been in shock, but had their details and would do so soon.

Sheldon and Leonard meet for the first time and make the roommate agreement.
[n] - noun, [phv] - phrasal verb, [adj] - adjective
So Sheldon's last roommate tried to warn you off?
For all I knew, he was the crazy one. He had this really deranged look.
Well, yeah, he'd been living with Sheldon.
Sure, it makes sense now. Anyway, I went upstairs and knocked on the door.
Dr. Cooper?
No, you want the crazy guy across the hall.
In retrospect, that was clue number two.
I'm Leonard Hofstadter. I called you about the apartment. You said...
I know what I said. I know what you said. I know what my mother said on March 5, 1992. What is the sixth noble gas?
You said you're a scientist. What is the sixth noble gas?
Uh, radon?
Are you asking me or telling me?
Telling you? Telling you.
All right, next question. Kirk or Picard?
Oh, uh, well, that's tricky. Um, well, uh, Original Series over Next Generation, but Picard over Kirk.
Correct. You've passed the first barrier to roommate-hood. You may enter.
Oh, this is pretty nice. Uh, the bedrooms are back there?
That depends.
I don't understand, their, their existence is conditional?
No, but your ability to perceive their existence is conditional on you passing the second and third barriers.
There's three?
Each more daunting than the last. Have a seat.
No! That's where I sit!
What's the difference?
This seat is ideally located both in relation to the heat source in the winter and a cross breeze in the summer.
It also faces the television at a direct angle allowing me to immerse myself in entertainment or game play without being subjected to conversation.
As a result, I've placed it in a state of eternal dibs.
Can you do that?
Cathedra mea, regulae meae. That's Latin for my chair, my rules. Now, you said on the phone that your area of study is physics.
Uh, yeah, experimental physics.
What is that?
Doesn't concern you. You'll be going to the university every day?
And you have a vehicle?
A car, yeah.
And you'll be willing to drive me?
Well, can't you drive?
I can. I choose not to.
Okay, I suppose I could drive you. Well that's a point in my favour, right?
Why don't you let me do this.
Come on, I just asked.
Last question. In a post-apocalyptic world, which task would you assign the highest priority?
Locating a sustainable food source, re-establishing a functioning government, procreating, or preserving the knowledge of mankind?
Uh, I'm gonna go with preserving the knowledge.
That's correct. FYI, I would have accepted any answer other than procreating. Come, I'll show you the rest of the apartment.
Oh, good. I passed the barriers.
The second barrier. Don't get cocky. This is the bathroom. Are you fairly regular?

One of my favorites is the Mount Vernon Place United Methodist Church. Located near the George Peabody Library, this Victorian Gothic beauty dominates the skyline along Charles Street.
The building is made [of] six of different types of stone. Its extraordinary color (especially when wet) comes from the use of the now rare green serpentine metabasalt from the Falls Road area of Baltimore County, and buff and red sandstone trim. (from the church website)
The stone carvers' marks, evident on every stone,
bring to mind hand stitching.
It is impossible, for me, to pass this beauty without touching the carvers' marks and wondering at the history and stories behind them. Did each stone carver have a signature mark? Did it vary based on the stone? What thoughts occupied the carvers minds while their hands produced such beauty, etc.
I would love to see the inside as well. A kind lady stopped while I was photographing
and assured me that the inside is just as spectacular.
I did try the front doors, but they were locked. Perhaps on a future visit...
The Baltimore Basilica's facade is quite a contrast.
It presents a very imposing front, complete with majestic columns.
I must admit to being a bit baffled and disappointed as I walked up the steps, finding this church more akin to a federal building than my idea of a cathedral. And then I entered.
The lightness of the interior stopped me mid step and all disappointment fled
to be replaced by awe.

The following continues my summary of preliminary hearing testimony in the criminal case against Howard K. Stern and two doctors. See more details here \"Three Ring Circus\".
Next to take the witness stand was Ms. Jennifer Doss, a special agent with the California Department of Justice, Pharmaceutical Task Force. She presented evidence that pseudonyms, coupled with a variety of doctors, pharmacies and associates, including Howard K. Stern ("HKS"), were utilized to procure prescriptions for Anna Nicole Smith ("ANS"). She further corroborated her testimony with Homeland Security Agent Kenneth Krause's report which documents multiple trips taken by defendants HKS and Eroshevich from California to the Bahamas. Special Agent Doss successfully tied in the transport of certain pharmaceuticals as well, including Demerol, Dalmane, Lorazepam and methadone – empty bottles of some of these drugs were later found in Eroshevich's home.
During cross-examination, HKS lawyer Steve Sadow attempted to show some of these medications were meant to treat HKS' back problems – stemming from Botox injections. Seriously? Demerol for a back injection? Is it possible HKS got botox in his back solely to get drugs for ANS-is it possible he attempted to defraud the doctor? Hmmm…I wonder.
Expert witness, Dr. Timothy Botello testified both via live testimony and through evidence submitted in a report commissioned by the California Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement as follows: there are at least five instances between 2003 and ANS' death in 2007, where Eroshevich over-prescribed Valium, Vicodin and other drugs. This abundance of medication represented what he described as an "extreme departure" from the normal standard of care, and that [Eroshevich] knew or should have known [ANS] had an addiction problem."
Dr. Botello also presented a stark piece of evidence dating back to 2006 when ANS was pregnant with Danielynn: Eroshevich prescribed 3 different sedatives to be taken at overlapping intervals, despite the fact that ANS was admitted to both the Betty Ford Rehab Center and Cedar Sinai for addiction. Botello testified that defendant Eroshevich should have prudently administered the "lowest amount of drugs" possible, and only after consulting with a pain management team. He found no "legitimate medical purpose for prescribing all three [sedatives] throughout the day."
Judge Perry stated prosecutors have "put on a rather compelling case of excessive prescribing" by Eroshevich. Compelling is a pretty strong word for the Judge to use, and it suggests that this case will indeed go to trial as I suspected from the beginning. Next up is a computer forensics expert. This is getting exciting…Stay tuned while I continue to nourish my guilty pleasure of tracking this three ring circus case!
Lady Justice is consulting with a sword sharpening expert and could not be reached for comment.

Udupi: August 28, 2015: A couple, who were facing parental objections and had declared their intention to end life together, got married with the support of well-wishers here on Thursday.
Basava (25), from Doni village, Mundargi taluk, Gadag district, working in a wooden-roofing firm, and Lalitha (20), from Hubballi, have been in a relationship ever since he met her a year ago. But parents of both were opposed to their wedding, though they were of the same caste. In the meantime, Lalitha's parents began searching for a groom.
Depressed, Basava informed his employer Jagadish about their decision to commit suicide together. Mr. Jagadish then informed a social worker, Vishu Shetty, who began efforts to resolve the issue

Adventure enthusiasts are always ready to hit the road and experience the great outdoors. We would know. We've been there. Bean is made up of innovators, engineers, and most importantly, a team of outdoor sportsman who embody the spirit of teardrop camping. From sleeping in the backs of beat-up cars to camping in snow storms, we don't wait for the adventure to find us, we seek it out! Our team at Bean wants to help you make the most out of your journeys. That's why we build campers that can go wherever your vehicle can take you. Light, simple, off-road capable and designed to last a lifetime.
Traveling tiny shouldn't mean traveling with less. That's why we created the Bean Trailer. Teardrop trailers have been around since the 1930s, but what worked then doesn't necessarily work now. So we've built a better trailer, one that makes compact traveling more comfortable than you'd ever imagine. Bean trailers eliminate the inconvenient parts of teardrop camping, engineering it for quiet weekends at a campsite as well as trekking through the rougher outdoor elements. It's simple, we changed what was once a trailer made of numerous parts to a single piece of fiberglass molded into an exterior.
Bean Trailers are one of a kind teardrops that makes accessibility, convenience, comfort, and fun a priority. From an exterior molded from a single piece of fiberglass to a reimagined interior that's smart and spacious, every Bean is built to last as long as the memories you make with them. We've worked to make every one of our trailers low hassle, highly durable, and simple to use. We can't wait to show you our 2020 line of trailers models.
