Interestingly, Jayanthi's love for writing and learning began in her own elementary-school years. Her teacher would post magazine pictures on the board and ask the students to create their own stories. Young Jayanthi enjoyed this exercise very much, getting positive feedback from her teacher and peers.
Jayanthi's path to becoming a teacher was a natural fit for her. As a published children's book author, this trend continues, as she seeks to teach and inspire through her writing and experiences with world travel.
Having traveled widely, she now wants to share and infuse the growing global mindset with the emerging generation of students. Since her retirement, she has dedicated her effort to pursue her passion for writing about our increasingly interdependent world. The Curry Kid Explores India is her debut children's book, the first book in her Wonders of the World series. One smart cookie, the Curry Kid travels to the various Wonders of the World, where he will learn about the unique cultures of each area, as well as meet some exciting new characters. Through her books, she hopes to spark an early interest in the world around us and to reach children who may not get the chance to visit other countries and learn about their cultures except through books.
Jayanthi is a mother of two sons, Philip (a doctor of podiatry) and Jeremy (a doctor of internal medicine). Her husband, Julian, is a professor of international finance at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas.

[ASI News] The "Progressive" Movement ExposedOctober 15th, 2008 at 2:26 pm EDT
Cliff Kincaid
America's Survival, Inc.
Dear Friend of America's Survival, Inc.
We have posted a new blockbuster study, "From Henry Wallace to William Ayers - the Communist and 'Progressive' Movements," in which former government investigator Herbert Romerstein analyzes how the old Soviet Union used "progressives" for its own purposes and how a Communist Party spin-off organization has become involved in the modern-day movement known as "Progressives for Obama." It is available on our home page www.usasurvival.org
The Communists used to call them "sympathizers," "fellow travelers," "left-wingers," and "useful idiots," Romerstein notes. They called themselves "Progressives." He explains, "The Soviet controlled and financed Communist Party USA manipulated these people in carrying out Soviet influence operations."
This study includes exhibits from Soviet and communist literature. You won't find this kind of information anywhere else.
"During the 1930s and 40s," his 24-page study says, "the Communists used such people to influence non-communist Americans in the trade union movement and the Democratic Party. Two secret Communist Party members became Democratic members of the United States Congress. They were John Bernard from Minnesota and Hugh DeLacy from Washington State. A 'friend of the Party' was Vito Marcantonio, who was elected to Congress first as a Republican, then as a Democrat, and finally as a candidate of the Communist Party controlled American Labor Party in New York."
Romerstein, who investigated communist networks for the U.S. Congress, describes how Henry Wallace's Third Party Movement in 1948, the Progressive Party, was under total Communist Party control. "The Communists even reassigned some of their members from Soviet espionage to run the Progressive Party," he says.
Bringing the controversy up to modern times, Romerstein explains how the "New Left" of the 1960s and 70s included Communists involved in such groups as the Students for a Democratic Society and its terrorist offspring, the Weather Underground, and later "Progressives for Obama."
Meanwhile, I have written a column for Accuracy in Media, Was a Communist Obama's Sex Teacher?, in which I examine Obama's association as a young man with the Communist sex pervert, Frank Marshall Davis. Rush Limbaugh mentioned this on the air on his Tuesday radio show.
You can read my column here. My column notes that the tabloid National Enquirer has even picked up the story. You can't always trust the Enquirer. But this story is definitely true. Indeed, it looks like the tabloid stole it from Andrew Walden's report for us on the Davis Sex Rebel book.
If you haven't yet read Andrews's analysis of the book, please click on the Davis box on our home page and go to that information. Remember this is adult material. Davis was a pornographer AND a communist. He saw the sexual revolution as part of the communist revolution.
Our objective is to tell the truth about the communist and "progressive" networks that are seeking total power in the United States. Once again, I must ask for your support.
Please use the PayPal device on our home page or send your contributions by check to America's Survival, Inc. P.O. Box 146, Owings, MD 20736. I have spent $20,000 for educational activities over the last several weeks alone.
Meanwhile, next week I am headed back to Chicago to do additional research. It costs a lot of money to conduct these fact-finding trips and commission and publicize our ground-breaking reports. This trip will cost me several thousand dollars. But it must be done.
It was on a previous trip to Chicago that I paid a visit to the university office of terrorist professor Bill Ayers, only to discover that the wall outside his office is plastered with left-wing, pro-homosexual, anti-Israel and Marxist propaganda. One big poster highlights an Ayers visit to see his "education" comrades in Hugo Chavez's Venezuela. You can see the photos of this material exclusively on our website.
Will you help us?
America's survival is truly at stake.
This is a turning point for America.
Thank you,
Cliff Kincaid, President

My friend Lauren is black.
She's a lot of other things too, and that of course isn't her one defining characteristic. But of the many things that she is, that is one. And it is a significant one.
She may not even remember this, but years ago, Lauren was at my place and at some point, the topic of racial reconciliation came up. I naively opined that perhaps the best way to achieve that would be to stop talking about race at all, and just try and see each other as individuals. Lauren then proceeded to correct me on that and explain to me why it's not that simple and that it would not in fact improve race relations in a genuine way.
I was a little embarrassed at first, as I liked to think of myself as a somewhat enlightened person. I fumbled over my words, trying to patch up all the holes she had just exposed in my reasoning. But that night was the beginning of a real shift in my thinking on the issue. And that is primarily because someone I counted as a good friend, whose opinion I respected, and who is impacted by the issue in a way that I am not, had the opportunity to be honest and open with me. And I finally bothered to listen.
And this is the door through which we all need to walk in order to begin really understanding each other. The gospel was supposed to break down the walls of hostility between Jews and gentiles, but we've been building new ones ever since. People who are different from us become the "other" and our approach to them usually looks like indifference, mild curiosity, or outright hostility and suspicion. But what if we made it a point to reach out to the "other" in a posture of humility, and were slow to speak and quick to listen, and we really believed that we had something to learn from them?
As I've mentioned in previous posts, I've experienced the willingness and desire to do just that by members and leaders at the church of which I'm a part here in Shanghai, providing me with a platform to talk about the church's relationship with the lgbt community from the perspective of someone who identifies with both. And in the aftermath of last year's flareup of the culture war over gay marriage, and as it seems that the conservative church is currently on the losing end, this seems to be happening a lot more. It might just be that in order to be humble, the church needed to be humbled.
And here's the chance for the church to get it right. Maybe now that more lgbt people have an opportunity to be open and honest with the church in the context of relationships and community, the church will develop a more informed, nuanced understanding of human sexuality and a more beneficial and compassionate way of interacting with and ministering to their lgbt neighbors.
I'm not being naive; I know this isn't something that's going to happen any time soon. But there's no reason we can't start down that trajectory. Sure, the Southern Baptist Convention recently held a conference on the "issue" of homosexuality, where among the 45 speakers, less than a handful could speak from a place of personal experience with same sex attractions. But at nearly the same time, Notre Dame University hosted a conference in which all the speakers were lgbt people themselves who are actually living out God's call on their lives to chastity, whether through celibacy or marriage to someone of the opposite sex.
The bible describes the church as a people made from those who were not a people. If we truly want to be that new, diverse but united people group that displays Christ's glory, if we want to break down the dividing walls of racism, sexism, classism, homophobia, xenophobia, and politics, we've got to do the hard work of engaging one another, not just in debate, but in listening. Who knows what all we might learn?

The first step to avoid being a dumb-ass, is stop and think things through slowly and patiently before doing anything that can cause harm to you or someone else. For example, I know that sometimes we as Americans tend to think that the world evolves around us and that we are sometimes oblivious to the obvious, but do not and I repeat do not find yourself hiking in one hostile country, only to end up in prison in another hostile country whose sole purpose is to put you in jail on trumped-up charges, convicts you without a jury, sentencing you to many years and then thinks they got one over on the Americans because we refuse to negotiate with terrorists. The option here is simple; do not end up someplace where you are not wanted. Don't protest in countries where the people are fighting their governments. It is not your cause and please, do not appear shocked if you get caught. It was bound to happen especially if you were stupid enough to be there in the first place.
Second step, of avoiding a case of dumb-ass syndrome, humans are hedonists and to those of you, who do not know what that means, it is definitely time for you to go back to school, to the beginning if necessary. Hedonists tend to do what makes them feel good over the needs of the common good, which I do not mock because I do it myself. However, I must remind you that there are no limits to stupidity. For example, women, do not marry for money; no matter how much it is. Shocking as it may seem, some guys are actually about the commitment, the love of a woman. There are some really good women out there who can't find a good guy because some guys are too busy looking for the easy goose that lays the golden eggs, only to find out later that the eggs…are not so golden.
Third step, common sense is not a lost cause. It can get you through some of the toughest times, but if you at some point lose that common sense and believe everything that you see or read, then I'm wrong. Common sense is a lost cause for some. For example, in politics, stretching the truth, even a little bit will undoubtedly grab some poor saps whose only education comes from comic strips written on toilet paper. The dumb-ass syndrome is an avoidable disease and we just have to ask ourselves, is that how we want to continue to live our lives?

Payroll services are essential for any business. It doesn't matter if you have just one employee or if you have a bunch of them. There are two different things about the payroll service that you should consider. The one is the in-house payroll and the other one is when you are outsourcing the payroll. It is important to make sure that you know the difference before you are going to decide which one is going to be best for you and your business:
What is in-house payroll service?
In-house payroll service is where you are hiring someone to work in your business and just doing the payroll. It is basically when you are hiring a payroll clerk that is doing it throughout the day.
Or, this is where you are sitting after work and doing the payroll of your workers so that they can get paid at the end of the month. You will need to have a computer, software and lots of time to be able to do this on your own.
Meaning of outsourced payroll service
Payroll outsourcing is where you are hiring a company outside of your business that are doing the payroll for you and your business. This isn't an individual who is coming to work every morning and get a salary at the end of the day.
You are paying them a fee for doing the payroll of your business and to make sure that there aren't any mistakes done with the payroll each and every month. There are many benefits of this type of service, and recommended that every business should consider this method.
Benefits of the outsourcing
As mentioned there are many benefits with using the payroll outsourcing company. With knowing these benefits, it will be easier to decide if this is something that you can consider or not.
The first benefit is that you are going to save a lot of money. Money that you would have spent in purchasing the best software and system for the payroll and the salary that you needed to pay for the clerk that is doing this work on a daily basis.
It is also going to save you time, especially if you are doing the payroll yourself. You will have more time to focus on the more important things than doing the payroll each and every day.
Things to consider before you make your final decision
There are a couple of things that you should consider before you can make your final decision in choosing between in-house and payroll outsourcing. Even, if you don't have a huge budget, the payroll outsourcing is the one thing that you can afford.
It is much safer and more reliable than hiring someone to come and work in-house.
When it comes to the business's payroll, you need to decide if you are looking for an in-house option or if, you are going to look for an outsourcing option. With all these information that you have just read, it will be clear that payroll services might be your best option because of all the benefits that it has to offer each and every business.

Listen, really listen. To all that's being said. To all that's not being said. To the breaths between the words. To holding your breath. Listen to the silence. To the loud sigh of exhaustion or of release. Listen to how the hugs feel in your body. Do they comfort your soul? Listen to the smile. Listen to your heart. Hear what your soul has to say. What does it need and desire?
I'm here and I'm listening. Sometimes my heart and soul are so full that I don't cannot hear what you're saying. Today I will clear my head while I'm with you. You're important to me. I will listen with my ears, heart and soul. To you and all that you are, you gorgeous thing. I hear you.
I see the pain behind your eyes that your courage tries to hide. I hear the laughter that fills the space when the tears are too much to take. I'm here and listening. Speak your truth. Become your truth. Share your heart with me, I'll hold it in mine.

What's Keeping You From Being Inspired?
It's crucial to know your foe.
Before you can effectively improve a situation – any situation, in any context – you have to know what obstacles have prevented you from making a decent change up until that point, right? If I want to lose weight, I need to know, for instance, that my biggest temptation is the Dunkin' Donuts exactly halfway between my house and my daughter's school … mmmm…. donuts …
Oops. Sorry.
ANYWAY. Yes, I need to know that, so I can find another route. Likewise, if I want to be more productive and more inspired as a solo, I need to know what's keeping me from being productive and inspired right now.
Dr. Judi Craig writes here for The Complete Lawyer that one excellent way to do a little detective work in this area is to create and keep an interruptions log. Dr. Craig suggests doing this for several days – I'd say at least a week – in order to get a fuller picture of who and what is causing those little time-killing, soul-sucking interruptions in your days.
Now, a seven-minute phone call here or two minutes to read an email there might not seem so very significant to you. But think of it this way: those minutes add up! In fact, as Dr. Craig points out, given an average interruption time of 10 minutes, an average of 10 interruptions a day (which might seem on the low side to some of us!), and a $200 hourly rate, you're losing $100,000 a year. That's worth recovering, don't you think?
Of course, as an Inspired Solo, I don't want to focus on those billable hours. Do you? No, I'd rather put my attention and focus on delivering quality work to my clients, offering flat rates wherever possible, and freeing up all the doubt and suspicion that the billable hour model creates – turning that energy into a reserve that I can use for creative purposes. Say, for instance, a new marketing project. Or developing a new niche area. Or just taking some time to engage in a little strategic brainstorming for the next stage in my practice's evolution.

The Gili Island
Are actually a group of 3 tiny islands – Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air – close the coast of northwest Lombok Island.
How to get to these paradise islands?
Depends where you are in Bali, from Kuta (from where we started) by car to Padang Bai and there you have to take a boat – about 2 h to Gili Trawangan. If you want to move between the islands you could use a fishing boat (called perahu).
Gili Trawangan is the largest of the 3 islands, though it measures just 3 km long and 2 km wide. It is probably the most fun island (for people who like to party) , but I didn't see it that way.
There are no cars on the island, you use bicycles, small carriages or scooters.
The beaches are white, clean and beautiful with characteristic swings.
You can enjoy this place a looot 🙂

Tinder, just acquired their first company this week called Tappy.
Tappy is an app with a similar interface to Tinder Moments in the way that a conversation starts with a picture message, followed by text or additional photos. Sean Rad was a big fan of the company and its founders Brian Norgard and Dan Gould, and wanted them as well as their employees on Tinder's side to get some inspiration back into Tinder.
In a recent interview Sean stated:
"We're very good at connecting people, but there's this 'what happens after that?' moment that we want to improve," said Rad. "We not only want to get better at the way we use criteria to connect people, but we want to broaden the reasons for connecting in the first place. The Tappy team will help us tackle both fronts, the pre-match experience of creating that first connection and the post-match experience of communicating with that person."
Tappy's service will shutdown as a result from the deal, and the app will be pulled from the app store in the following weeks, which I'm sure will disappoint their base of 10,000+ users.
So it looks like Tinder will be the one benefiting from this acquisition, and I'm curious on what the Tappy team will contribute to Tinder as we see updates coming in the next months.

1. A machine for measuring time, indicating the hour and
other divisions; in ordinary mechanical clocks for
domestic or office use the time is indicated on a
typically circular face or dial plate containing two
hands, pointing to numbers engraved on the periphery of
the face, thus showing the hours and minutes. The works of
a mechanical clock are moved by a weight or a spring, and
it is often so constructed as to tell the hour by the
stroke of a hammer on a bell. In electrical or electronic
clocks, the time may be indicated, as on a mechanical
clock, by hands, but may also be indicated by direct
digital readout, with the hours and minutes in normal
Arabic numerals. The readout using hands is often called
analog to distinguish it from the digital readout. Some
clocks also indicate the seconds. Clocks are not adapted,

Many people want vacations where you eat, drink and relax, and other times they look for a little more adventure to challenge their life. Uganda is a place where you can find both and summers are great time to visit though it has a lot to offer year round. While on a Uganda safari you can find out why natural beauty is magical. If you an adventure seeker, here are the top 10 things to do in Uganda.
1. White Water Rafting
The River Nile has many rapid waterfalls with stunning views, rapids that make water spot a great amazing adventure in Uganda. If you're looking for a perfect day trip on the Nile, White Water Rafting is something that can't disappoint. To do rafting in Uganda make sure you spend your previous night in either Kampala or Jinja.The adventure kicks off in the morning around 9.00am and ends at 4pm. Dress in light clothes, carry enough sun cream, no need to have hiking boots ,sandles can do. Join others on the journey to explore the Nile beauty. You don't have to be experienced to enjoy the activity but you should be brave and ready to face the fast moving rapids of different falls.
2. Bungee Jumping
When you go rafting don't forget to experience Bungee Jumping in Jinja a famous adventure capital of Uganda. All you need is a minimum of two days to experience the Nile historical resources which include source of the Nile, Bujagali falls, Itanda falls, Kalagala falls and the styled Indian buildings .Just to take you back Bungee jumping and White water rafting at the 5 grade rapids of the Nile is another unforgettable in Uganda.
3. Mountaineering
Mountaineering is a top rewarding adventure enjoyed in Mount Elgon and Mount Rwenzori the famed World Heritage Sites offering opportunity to see nature at its best. Be the one to witness the wonderful views of rainforests, bamboo forests, alpine vegetation and clouds in close range. Trekking Rwenzori and Elgon is incredible and unique because of you feel, see and relax in nature. The ascending bit will put a smile on your face passing through various vegetation, valleys, and glaciers.
4. Gorilla Trekking
Uganda also known as the pearl of Africa has many incredible tour adventures but gorilla trekking is one of the most loved and outstanding forest jungle experience you can never find anywhere other than Uganda, Rwanda and Congo. I believe no adventure seeker can miss to track mountain gorillas in either Bwindi impenetrable forest or Mgahinga National Park. The time is now to grab the opportunity of spending time with endangered mountain gorillas and live with happy wildlife memories that last for life. Uganda's prime tourists attraction "Mountain Gorillas " are trekked daily Monday –Sunday in groups of eight and tourists must follow the gorilla trekking rules and regulations for safety purposes. Pack right and dress right for the trek as advised by gorilla trekking specialist. Being fit is a must because the activity is quite challenging.
5. Hiking
Hiking might not be the main tourist attraction for travelers to Uganda but it's still one of the best way to experience the beauty of landscape, birds, animals and people. While mountain Ruwenzori fame for best hiking trails, there are so many others worth to be explored including Sipi Falls, Mgahinga national park Volcanoes, Lake Bunyonyi islands, Mountain Elgon etc.

We were busy practicing for next week's Stramash - I believe the original meaning of the word is a confused noise, which describes us perfectly (although we're a very cheerful confused noise), but in this case it's where all the classes get together and play to each other. It's good fun - there are enough of us that at any given time someone is sure to be playing the right thing, so I'm not too bothered about going wrong, and actually I think we sound pretty good, although a more objective listener may not agree, of course! I've decided that the reason primary school type fiddlers are often not much fun to listen to isn't that they play badly, it's that they play so so carefully - which isn't really my style anyway :)
This weekend looked like it was going to turn out absolutely crazy, in spite of being a supposedly quiet weekend with no dance - but seems to have got a bit less so, which is probably a good thing.

At a recent Community meeting, we were joined by Gareth, the leader of the Community of St Margaret the Queen (based in Streatham, South London). It was a joy to have someone from another Community visiting us, with the opportunity for mutual encouragement and the sharing of experiences, and I felt so proud and blessed as members of the St Thomas Pilgrim Community assembled. Having an 'outsider' present helped me realise afresh just what we have here – it's over a year since our very first meeting, and we've come such a long way in getting to know each other and forming a bond through prayer and fellowship.
St Margaret's are further along the road of Community development than we are – they've been established for longer, with a dozen members who have taken vows, and they have a previously redundant church building at their disposal which is being put to all kinds of imaginative and impressive uses. I must confess to feeling twinges of envy along with the pride! However, Gareth was keen to stress that prayer and study of Scripture together are at the heart of everything they do as a Community, as they are with us, and he gave such interesting insights into the adjustments they've had to make, and the 'rethinking' that's been necessary, as they establish a rhythm of life. They have members from a variety of cultural backgrounds and with differing levels of income, and the financial commitment and style of hospitality which may seem natural to some is simply not possible or appropriate for others.
Gareth's observations, together with my own experiences both personal and with the Community, have also encouraged me to think about how we address and embrace our differences, and how to ensure that no one misses out or is left feeling uncomfortable as a result of something which may seem natural to many of us. For example, our members include people with disabilities and health issues: how does the use of music impact on someone with a hearing impairment, and are periods of silence difficult for someone with mental health challenges? And how practical is candlelight? (Personally, I love the atmosphere it creates, but reading certainly become more of a problem!) There's also the matter of shared meals and individual dietary needs, where I freely admit my own shortcomings – not having such issues myself, I sometimes struggle to remember that others do. (And it was only when a newcomer asked for decaffeinated coffee that I realised we didn't have any in the vicarage!)
Here is our Community prayer, written by Jutta:
Holy Spirit, be present with us. Guide our hearts and minds, our praying and searching, our listening and speaking, as we long to be part of a Community that is rooted in your love. May it help us to deepen our relationship with you, our relationship with one another and with the wider world, that your will be done and your kingdom come. Amen.

Ribeiro leads Predators over Wild 3-2 to snap 3-game skid
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Mike Ribeiro and the Nashville Predators built an early lead and hung on for a much-needed win.
Ribeiro had a goal and an assist to lead the Predators to a 3-2 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Saturday night.
Filip Forsberg and James Neal also scored for Nashville, which ended a three-game slide. Shea Weber had two assists, and Pekka Rinne stopped an early penalty shot.
Zach Parise and Jason Zucker had goals for the Wild, who had won three in a row.
"Tough start, that's for sure," Minnesota coach Mike Yeo said. "The first period was not us and they were ready. We knew they would be ready. They were desperate and reeling a little bit here, so we knew that they would be ready to go. And then we had a push at the end and we started to get some momentum off that. It was a little too late."
Forsberg scored 46 seconds into the game. Standing in front of Wild goalie Devan Dubnyk, Forsberg was able to redirect Weber's wrist shot from the left point for his seventh goal of the season.
Dubnyk finished with 36 saves.
Rinne did not face a Wild shot on goal until 8:28 of the first period, and it came on Zucker's penalty shot.
Zucker was hooked from behind on a breakaway by Nashville defenseman Ryan Ellis. Rinne was able to glove down the backhand attempt.
"He probably would have liked to have had a couple just to feel the puck a little before you have to face a penalty shot," Predators coach Peter Laviolette said. "Even during the penalty shot, he looked really strong. He was dead on with what he was doing."
Ribeiro doubled Nashville's lead at 14:11 of the first.
With the Predators on their second two-man advantage of the first period, Ribeiro tipped Weber's one-timer from the high slot by Dubnyk for his fourth of the season.
"I think if I watch the replay, my eyes are closed," Ribeiro said. "I think even if it doesn't touch me it goes in anyway, but I'll take it."
Neal made it 3-0 at 8:06 of the second with a wrist shot from the left circle that beat Dubnyk to the short side.
Neal leads Nashville with 13 goals this season.
Less than a minute later, Minnesota cut it to 3-1 when Marco Scandella's slap shot deflected off Parise and by Rinne at 8:49.
Zucker corralled a puck in the slot following a faceoff and snapped a wrist shot high to Rinne's glove side to make it 3-2 at 8:35 of the third.
"The third period, that's when we wanted to play," Zucker said. "It was pretty much the entire 20 minutes of that period and it showed. We got that goal, a big goal from Zach and that really picked us up and got us going from there."
Rinne finished with 20 saves.
NOTES: Parise extended his scoring streak to seven games, his longest with the Wild. ... Dubnyk is 7-5-2 against the Predators. ... Nashville is 10-1-2 when leading after two periods. ... Ribeiro's goal was his first since Dec. 1. ... Weber leads Nashville in power-play points with 14.

STORY FROM: Drugs & Medical Devices
Ill. Federal Judge Agrees to Re-Analyze Off-Label Promotion Claim in Generic Cordarone Action
August 3, 2017
CHICAGO — An Illinois federal judge has granted in part Sandoz Inc.'s motion to reconsider his previous ruling in an amiodarone wrongful death case, ruling that the plaintiff's off-label promotion claim should have been analyzed as a claim for fraudulent misrepresentation, rather than a claim for negligence.
However, in the Aug. 1 order, Judge Robert W. Gettleman of the US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois said he correctly held that plaintiff's failure-to-warn claims are not preempted by federal law, but rather allege violations of federal law that parallel state law regulations.

Two United Nations experts on the human rights to water and sanitation and adequate housing today expressed concern over the increasing number of homeless people in the city of Cork, Ireland, and their lack of access to water and sanitation. Over 700 people are homeless in the city of approximately 120,000 inhabitants.
"Widespread homelessness is evidence of the failure of the State to protect and ensure the human rights of the most disadvantaged populations," said the UN Special Rapporteur on adequate housing, Leilani Farha, noting that the number of homeless people has risen in the last few years due to the lack of affordable housing and the impact of austerity measures.
The expert stressed that –according to international human rights law–all levels of government are under an obligation, to provide urgent measures, including financial assistance, to ensure access to affordable housing and essential levels of drinking water and sanitation services.
"The State must take immediate steps to provide these services to homeless people, and at the same time, it must plan and implement a strategy to eliminate homelessness and provide long-term housing solutions," Ms. Farha said.
Rent allowance allocations available to individuals and families by the city of Cork are reportedly grossly inadequate in relation to the cost of housing in the private market. Tenants with low or irregular income have no protection from sudden increases in rent, forcing them to either move out or face eviction, often resulting in homelessness.
The above is from The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR).

We have five children, so sibling fights and disagreements are a daily occurrence at our house. As a tired and sometimes overwhelmed mom, it is very difficult to find a solution that works, a technique that convinces my children to love one another at all times, play nicely, share, and to think of their brother or sister first. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
After giving it some thought and reflecting on my own adult sibling relationship, I started to wonder if this technique is such a good idea after all. I have one brother that is 3 years younger than me. We grew up pretty close and did not fight too much. Well, at least from our prospective. I'm not sure what our mother's thoughts on that would be. I think we played well together and usually had fun and enjoyed each other's company. However, we were not perfect and we did have disagreements at times. For example, I could not stand listening to him chew his food at the breakfast table. It drove me nuts! I used to yell at him from across the table to chew with his mouth closed. However, I am pretty sure he did not appreciate being cast as the family dog when my friend and I would play house!
Our biggest challenge as brother and sister came about in our adult life. Several years ago my brother revealed to our family that he is gay. I can share this because he is now open about it with our family and friends. It was a very difficult time for him and us as a family. We had to and are still working through a lot of our differing feelings, thoughts, and view points on the issue. Things have been said from both parties that have been misunderstood and at times very hurtful. I tell you this to demonstrate a messy and REAL life issue. This goes far beyond fighting over a toy, a turn on the Wii, or in our day the Nintendo, or a he touched me argument. This is one that you can not possibly prepare for. How do we relate to one another in this situation? How do we argue, make our points, work it out together, find common ground, agree to disagree, and in the end still love unconditionally and preserve our relationship while holding on to who we are and what we believe individually. It's tough!
I believe the skills to do just that come from our childhood disagreements. We were never stuck in a shirt and forced to tolerate each other after a disagreement. Yes, we had to say, "I am sorry." I am sure sometimes it was done begrudgingly, but it was still a practice that we had to learn. The practice of apology takes work. It is hard, embarrassing, and sometimes painful to say I am sorry and to admit that I was wrong. Even as adults, we hate to have to do that. Once we get into the practice of recognizing our wrongs and quickly responding it becomes easier and we begin to do it with sincerity. I will be the first to admit that in this real life situation, I have not always responded in the right way.
I have to wonder if our parents had simply put us together in a shirt titled "The we will get along shirt" if we would have learned the skills of apology and forgiveness. We are now having to call on those skills to hold our fragile and struggling relationship together in a very difficult time. We aren't totally there yet. We both have struggled and are still struggling. Now, I am not saying this technique is wrong, I'm just questioning how effective it is in the long run. Someone else may argue that it is highly effective because of things I have not considered.
I teach my children that the most valuable friendships they hold are the ones with their siblings. After all, they are truly the only people on earth that have the same history, that share similar DNA, that have the same childhood experiences and memories. In a lot of ways, the only ones that really "get" you. Some even have a secret language that only they understand. Even in the midst of trials, I still believe and hold on to this as truth in my own life and sibling relationship with my one and only brother. I do love him no matter what and without condition!
I am grateful for parents that taught us how to apologize, how to forgive, and how to love. I hope and pray that I am doing what it takes to equip my children with the skills they need to relate to the people of the world and most especially to each other as they become adults. I truly do believe in making brothers and sisters best friends!
What scripture tells us about resolving conflict.
"If a fellow believer hurts you, go and tell him—work it out between the two of you. If he listens, you've made a friend. If he won't listen, take one or two others along so that the presence of witnesses will keep things honest, and try again. If he still won't listen, tell the church. If he won't listen to the church, you'll have to start over from scratch, confront him with the need for repentance, and offer again God's forgiving love." Mathew 18: 15-17 The Message
"So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It's your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it." Colossians 3:13 The Message

A fine-grained, black marble, with characteristic strong white veining, the stone is famous for its depth and richness in colour. Gemini Quartz® achieves the beauty of Nero Marquina at its best with compact graining and contrasting veins in abundance throughout the slab.

As US homeware giant West Elm prepares to open its first London branch next week and cult store Anthropologie spreads the upscale-boho vibe out-of-town to straight-laced Surrey, it seems we British are having a fling with all-American 'décor' brands.
Post-recession, American brands are flooding to the UK and making waves on British high streets. Well, not always making waves. Fashion label J Crew made more of a ripple with a deliberately low key (and effortlessly cool, natch) entry to the country by nestling in discreetly among the independent boutiques on London's trendy Lambs Conduit Street. Those bearded J Crew dudes don't even have a sign, they're so darn keen to blend in.
Meanwhile, across town, there was a much louder fanfare; Regent Street is still strewn with banners from the experiential 'all-American block party' (complete with cheer leaders) that was held earlier this autumn to celebrate the NFL International Series games at London's Wembley Stadium.
We are, it seems, enjoying 'The Special Relationship' – and nowhere is this more evident than in the interiors sector.
The love affair has been brewing for a few years now, since trend-setting Jonathan Adler caused a stir in notoriously-not-that-groovy Chelsea back in 2011 by opening his 'Happy Chic' boutique on Sloane Avenue with the slogan: 'YOUR 24-HOUR POT DEALER' plastered across the windows.
Others soon joined in. Since arriving on these shores in 2009, US hipster brand Anthropologie has sold so many 'quirky teacups' and 'whimsical knobs' on King's Road and Regent Street that it can afford to open a new Guildford branch in a shop formerly occupied by Habitat – just saying. Even New York designer John Derian has paid us a visit to introduce his new Provincetown candle collection to Liberty, so our homes can smell of the East Coast…
Perhaps the recovering economy, combined with the power of online influencers – bloggers, websites, digital magazines – and the increasing might of social media, has boosted brands' confidence. It's no longer a leap in the dark; Now, companies can test the waters in advance and prepare customers before making the scary jump across The Pond. West Elm, for example, got us salivating last year by teaming up with British designers such as Sarah Campbell and introducing international shipping on their American website.
On Tottenham Court Road, West Elm's new neighbours will include Habitat and Heal's – British brands that are both trying their hardest to be fashion-forward during difficult times. The appointment of Polly Dickens at Habitat (fresh from being Design Director at Anthropologie, incidentally) means the focus there is shifting to more affordable but increasingly-exciting design season-by-season, while Heal's has been pulling every trick imaginable out of the bag to remain relevant, including a recent in-store Silent Opera* evening. (*which Gok Wan attended. Honestly.)
It's going to be tough. Feathers will be ruffled. West Elm is Williams Sonoma's coolest kid and these guys mean business. The brand collaborates with top bloggers and cutting-edge designers such as Shanna Murray and has a knack of scooping up the trendies before they themselves even realise they're 'in'. As if that wasn't enough, the new shop even has, like, a totes-on-trend living wall (a la Anthropologie Regent Street).
Does this mean that UK brands will have to up their game? Let's hope so. I write this at a time when 'top designer' Holly Willoughby has just launched her debut home collection (think shabby-chic, frills and lace and yawn) at BHS. Say. No. More.
The move across The Pond doesn't always work of course. US brand Dwell Studio (hastily renamed 'Living by Christiane Lemieux' after UK shop Dwell complained) – popped across last year but is struggling to sell via House of Fraser according to insiders, despite designers shrinking all the furniture to fit smaller UK homes and an impressive PR campaign. 'Most people in the UK just don't know who Christiane is,' one leading retail expert told me.
Meanwhile, some industry old-schoolers haven't even heard of the new kid on the block yet. 'West what?' asked a senior interiors PR manager at a recent meeting when the subject came up, adding, dismissively: 'Never heard of them.'
So, perhaps we're not all ready yet, but the younger, pin-happy-snap-chatting generation is clamouring for US style. This is not an invasion – it's more of a rescue. The British high street's home collections have been painfully safe throughout the recession, but now's the time for change. Surely we can do better than bulk-buying cushions plastered with owl motifs and 'keep calm' crap from China again and again. Somehow, it all feels so five years ago…and has done, for about five years.
Even Terence Conran – who was once at the helm of the Habitat revolution – has jumped ship to design a sell-out capsule collection for US high street department store JC Penney this year. But it works both ways, too – some British brands that have their finger on the pulse are bravely making the move in the opposite direction, such as Sofa.com which has just opened a shop in New York, thanks to building up an American fan base online in advance.
So, watch out, Holly. It's a global game these days, baby.

Since January I've been waiting for March 23rd. (This is Denise, btw.) That's when I booked a photographer workshop with one of the most beloved and respected in the industry. Tamara Lackey is an icon and one of my personal all-time favorites. So it's easy to understand why waiting three months to meet her in person was, well, hard to put out of my mind. The workshop landed smack in the middle of spring break, so my other job didn't have to suffer my missing. Only meant Jerry had full time daddy duty to our kids. He's done it before with glowing success. I actually think they all like it when I'm gone for overnight trips. They eat all day and all night!
I sort-of started my photojournalistic journey getting to my airport gate. Actually took a picture of my smoothie cup on my suit case. Classy. Took a picture of my awaiting, really dinky, puddle-jumper jet, even have some of puffy-white clouds as we were descending into Raleigh-Durham Airport. Once I arrived and checked in to my very comfortable hotel, (took a pic of the Chic-Filet outside and sent it to Jerry :) I contacted Tamara's studio manager Sarah. Ahhh Sarah. One day when Jerry and I have our big studio, really hope I can find my own Sarah. She's dreamy. I'll get more detailed about Sarah later, but since I had NO idea where I was in relation to the workshop I was feeling helpless.
Our workshop started at 9 AM so I had 16 hours to figure it out. No problem. Sarah said the studio was behind PF Changs. Which was on the other side of the mall. Which was right in front of the hotel. Get the picture. Could have taken a shuttle provided by the hotel, but it was NICE out. Actually, it was warmer there than in Florida that day. Go figure! They don't have that blasted humidity though, so it felt perfect for a nice, long walk. I didn't tote my bulky pro camera, just my Iphone. Embarking on my adventure I hardly got out of the hotel parking lot and was struck by the light pink blooms blanketing a little tree. Reminded me of those cheery cherry blossoms from Japan, but these were different. Learned later they are some sort of pear tree. I happily proceeded on my way to find PF Changs and the studio when this really nice high-end mall stood right before me. It's entrance was graced by an Apple store. Had to take a picture of that! Jerry would have been all a buzz. He gets like that around Apple stores. Every time. It's actually fun to watch. Anyway there was a Bose store, too and almost took a picture of that for my Jer-Bear, but it might have put him over the edge, so I decided against it. The mall was way bigger on the inside. Cavernous actually. A friendly security guard pointed me in the direction of Changs and was once again happily on my way.
I've never been on a scavenger hunt, but I definitely felt like I was on one. I'd say I'm pretty resourceful and may take on the challenge sometime. Once outside again I came across more unique flowers. Took a pic and was bravely leaving the mall. Once over the parking lot and up a hill I saw the distinct look of a Chang's. Had to cross a semi-busy four lane road, but once there it was like the end of my hunt was nearing and I knew I was darn close. Any guesses what I did when I found the sign for Tamara's studio? That's right! I took a picture :). Took two actually. Put one on Twitter and tagged the studio. Tamara mentioned it the next day. She said she liked it better than the one she paid for. I think I blushed when she said that in front of everyone. Silly Iphone actually rocks.
The first day of the workshop was teaching. Eating (thanks to Sarah ;) And taking pictures. I took pictures of people taking pictures. And flowers. No surprise.
Well needless to say the entire workshop was worth every ounce of effort my family and I expended. I came away with a new sense of my place in professional photography and what I want to be known for: images that invoke an emotional, visceral response. Sounds simple but not easy to produce. And I came away changed because I want to teach others someday.

Police re-appeal to public in search for missing Sleaford man
Police in Lincolnshire are continuing to search for a man who was last seen nine days ago.
51-year-old Robert Taylor was last seen setting off from his home in Sleaford on February 1.
Detectives originally issued an appeal on February 4 for any information about him or any sightings of him to be reported to us.
Mr Taylor's family are very concerned because he has not made any contact since he left and for him to go missing is very out of character.
He did not have his wallet or medication with him, which is adding to his family's worries.
It is thought that he was wearing a green polo shirt with grey / brown cargo trousers but it is not known which coat he may have taken.
Man airlifted to hospital after Sleaford bypass collision
A man has been airlifted to hospital following a collision between a car and a lorry on the A17 Sleaford bypass.
The collision occurred at approx 12.10pm this afternoon and the road was closed to allow the air ambulance to land.
The driver, believed to be in his 80s, has been taken to Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham with serious injuries.

Woman accused of assisting friend's suicide 'should never have been prosecuted'
The family of a woman cleared of trying to help her friend commit suicide say she should never have been prosecuted.
Amelia Caller known to her friends and family as Milly was charged with "encouraging or assisting" the suicide of Emma Crossman, who was found dead at her Lincolnshire home in January last year.
Today a jury at Lincoln Crown Court took just under five hours to clear her of the charge, Her family and friends were in tears after the verdict was announced. Kate Hemingway reports
CPS defends assisted suicide prosecution
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has defended bringing forward a prosecution against Milly Caller for assisting the suicide of her friend Emma Crossman.
Caller was cleared of any wrongdoing by Lincoln Crown Court earlier today. Afterwards, her sister Fiona said she should never have been prosecuted.
However, the CPS says there was 'sufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction'.
Cases of this nature are uniquely challenging and sensitive. Taking all the evidence into consideration and in accordance with the Code for Crown Prosecutors it was decided that there was sufficient evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction. After legal argument the judge agreed it was right for a jury to decide. We respect the jury's decision.

Let Jaren enchant you with his collection of tales!
The literature of the past fascinates the modern reader. Part of this fascination is the paradox of the time and distance that creates a sense of the alien while remaining relevant in the present. Such literature is both ancient and modern. Some of the most interesting examples of such work can be found in the codices, such as the Exeter Book, that are frequently compilations of anonymous older texts. Codex Rosmanicus ("The Book of Rosman"), as the title implies, is modelled after such works.
The codex is a collection of writings compiled by the fictitious narrator/compiler Jaren the Traveller, a retired bard. The corpus consists of twelve bardic tales. The lines between fiction and reality are nebulous as the book contains personages/settings from the real world as well as those that are fictitious/fantastical. No attempt has been made to separate the two, and the result is a work that could be real but isn't.
In keeping with the feel of an ancient compiled work, the codex contains a mixture of literary forms: poetry, a play (a dramatic tragedy), and short stories. Thematically, they can be divided into the genres of fantasy, dark fantasy, high fantasy, horror, supernatural, and/or magic realism.
This book is populated by the bizarre. A death knight, an Ice Maiden, and a collection of the denizens of faerie lurk within its pages. The text struggles with light and dark, wrong and right, and the sometimes obscure border between fantasy and reality.

Food is one of the largest household expenses. Whether you're buying food just for yourself or for your whole family, you'll find that groceries take up a huge amount of your income.
Many people find it difficult to shop within their budget. It makes it even more challenging when the big stores persuade you to spend more with their quick sale promotions and bulk price schemes. Fortunately, there are simple ways that can help you to stay in control of your spending.
Saving money on your grocery shopping begins way before you visit a supermarket. With a little planning and organising you can transform your shopping experience from stressful to serene.
The pantry can get out of control if not well managed. Sorting, separating and staying on top of things will become easy if you create a designated spot for all your items. Stock your freezer and pantry regularly. To avoid wastage, keep a watch on the items with less shelf life and those near to expiring. By arranging these items in an accessible and easy to spot way, you'll be able to use them all before they spoil.
You can make the most of your grocery budget if you identify the things you and your family like and need. Be honest with yourself and don't stock on the items you won't be using at all.
Creating a menu between your shopping trips could help you buy everything you need in advance and save money on dining out if you fall short on your groceries. You could plan your menu around your store's weekly specials.
Once you prepare your food menu, check your pantry for the ingredients and list down all the new items you need to buy. You could add things you need for breakfast, snacks, paper goods, toiletries, cleaning, personal care or any other items available in the supermarket. Listing this down will help you to remember and buy everything you need in one trip. Creating a list and sticking to it will prevent you from making any impulsive purchases.
Investing time in planning will definitely pay off!
Basic products are mostly cheaper when bought in bulk. You could stock up your cupboard with the basics and fill them up from time to time when they're on sale. Always remember to shop around your supermarket budget and only buy things that you and your family will be using. Even if bulk buying is cheaper, don't buy unnecessary items in large quantities just because it's on sale. Do a little math and see if it's a good deal for you.
Coupons could be of great value. If you combine your coupons from each trip, the savings can really add up over time. If you use coupons during a sale, you would be able to save even more. With smart phone apps and online sites, clipping coupons has become a lot easier.
Supermarkets usually have some products that they sell at a cheaper price than their competitors. If you shop at more than one store, then it's worth noting the prices of the items you buy often and compare the best deals offered by different supermarkets. All the major supermarkets have a weekly specials mailer, you could also look online for the virtual mailer and compare the best deals before you start shopping. Don't forget to check out the deals at the dollar stores and the local farmers' markets.
To save even more money on your everyday items switch to a different brand that's cheaper or buy store-brand products if that doesn't give you a different result. You could then use the spare money to buy your favourite branded products.
How does your family save money? Share your thoughts with our readers.

Where Are Killer Germs in Your Home?
Salmonella, Campylobacter and E. coli are unfriendly forms of bacteria. In fact, one of these bad bacteria can multiply into 7 million cells in as little as 24 hours. Germs can spread fast, sickness can be transferred, and infections can spread from a number items like cutting boards, light switches, and doorknobs, but there are some other unlikely places in the home which breed germs. Тhаnkfullу thеrе аrе рrесаutіоns thаt саn bе tаkеn tо minimize the risk of germs spreading.
The Way to Fight Germs into Your Home
Kitchen sponges are home to millions of germs that can make you unwell. Unfortunately one of the main reasons that make them such good cleaning devices also makes them the perfect breeding ground for germs. The micro-crevices on a sponge protect them from disinfectant. To eliminate germs on sponges you can just put them in a microwave for a few minutes.
Сrоss соntаmіnаtіоn іs оnе оf thе mаіn rеаsоns fоr gеrms аnd іllnеss sрrеаdіng іn hоmеs. By way of example, you could wipe a kitchen down top which has green juice on it, rinse the sponge with water and re-use it on something else later. What you have to do to ensure bacteria don't spread is to wipe the kitchen top down with a suitable kitchen cleaner or a homemade solution consisting of lemon juice and vinegar.
Germ Filled Places in Your Home
The kitchen sink is one filthy place, food and dishes are washed inside, and liquid waste is thrown down the drain. Іn а соmmоn sіnk, thеrе саn bе аs mаnу аs 500,000 gеrms реr squаrе іnсh. To keep it as clean as possible, you should clean it using disinfectant at least twice a week.
Dirty underwear can spread E. Coli and contaminate the rest of your washing, to be certain that you are not infecting the rest of your laundry, clean your underwear separately. Also immediately dry your underwear as soon as possible to make sure all E. Coli is gone.
Staphylococcus bacteria is a common cause of serious skin infections and is usually found in bathtubs, which can normally hold more than 100,000 bacteria per square inch. This sort of bacteria is a less drug-resistant form of MRSA that's found in hospitals. Other bad bacteria can also be the source of some diseases such as sinusitis, fatigue, nausea, depression, dermatitis, sore throats and food poisoning. To safeguard your bathroom is as clean as possible give it a good wash at least once or twice a week working with a good bathroom cleaner.
Іt's ahоt аnd stеаmу thе tоіlеt іs а hаvеn fоr gеrms. If you don't put the lid down until you flush out the vapor from feces and urine can be taken up into the air and nestle in your toothbrush, towels, and soap, which is highly unhygienic and can spread germs very quickly. All you have to do to combat this is to put the lid down before you flush.
There are a lot of different places that house bacteria like remote controls, mobile phones, switches, handles and door knobs. These are the areas where germs and illness can easily spread because multiple individuals touch them. To help minimize the spread of germs go around with some disinfectant wipes once a week to be sure they are clean. Another good tip is when you come home from where you've been; remember to wash your hands immediately for a good 20 seconds using antibacterial soap. This way you wash away all of the nasty germs you might have picked up from public areas.
The Top 10 Most Bacteria Filled Places (Bacteria Per Sq.. Inch)
The toilet bowl is number one with around 3 million bacteria
Kitchen drains house about 560,000
A kitchen sponge or wiping cloth has over 130,000 bacteria
An average bath can have over 100,000 bacteria
A kitchen sink is considered cleaner than a bath with around 17,000
The kitchen faucet is a favorite for germs with over 13,000
A bathroom faucet is unexpectedly cleaner using 6,000
The sink in a toilet has about 2,700, which is about six times less than a kitchen sink
Considering how bad pet food dishes smell they only have about 2,000
The kitchen floor at any given instant can have around 830

The Sun
The Sun is not a planet but the star around which our solar system revolves. However, we refer to the Sun as a planet for ease rather than any other reason.
When discussing the Sun, it is important to ignore the Sun sign horoscopes that we see in the newspapers and magazines. The Sun is one element within the birthchart (albeit a very important one). It represents the outward expression - how the world sees us. Wherever it is placed within the birthchart we find a great deal of energy and power. This is where we concentrate our energies. How we concentrate those energies depends on the sign the Sun is placed in. The Sun is linked to Leo, and through this linked to creation, joy, self-esteem and generosity. In turn, the Sun is associated with children, surely the most wonderful example of creation. A well-aspected Sun will bring an individual kindness of heart, focus and a sunny disposition. Badly aspected, the Sun can mean an individual is pompous, over-bearing and too demanding of center-stage.
The Sun appears to move round the zodiac quite quickly, and as a result transits tend to last for a few hours. The most well-known transit by the Sun occurs on your birthday, when we usually feel good about ourselves for a short while. It is at this time when we often find ourselves the center of attraction.
Progressions by the Sun are truly important affairs. In any average life time, we will only experience around 20 progressions by this powerful planet. They tend to affect us fundamentally - these are important times in our lives when we focus closely on our lives and work out what we have to do to move on. Positive progressions by the Sun mean we have energy to spare and can make the most of opportunities that present themselves. These times are often a time of increased maturity and development. Negative progressions may bring setbacks and lack of focus, but these times need to be used in order to concentrate and make sure we complete what we have to get done. The Sun will change signs by progression maybe once or twice in our lifetimes. This represents a time when we change our focus and often become a more complex individual.

CCP-Bala Cynwyd
As caregivers, we seek to minimize the risk of anything happening to our children. We baby-proof our homes, travel with the safety of a car seat and call the pediatrician when their fever spikes. All of these are tools to keep our children safe. But accidents are sudden. Emergencies can happen anywhere.
Center City Pediatrics and Center City Pediatrics Bala Cynwyd know that CPR training saves lives. The ability to provide immediate care to your infant or toddler is invaluable. This is a perfect course for parents, grandparents, babysitters and caregivers!
Family and Friends CPR is a non-certification course taught by Lee Ann Shore, a registered nurse and certified American Heart Association CPR Instructor. Lee Ann will prepare you for a variety of situations that could face infants and children up to 8 years of age, including:
- Choking
- Cardiac arrest
- Respiratory arrest
Infant & Toddler CPR is offered monthly on a Saturday in our Center City Philadelphia office. It is a 75-minute, fast-paced discussion and your focus guarantees your mastery of the material. As such, please consider leaving your little ones with another caregiver for the morning.
You do not need to be a patient of either Center City Pediatrics or Center City Pediatrics Bala Cynwyd to participate in our classes.
Each session costs only $55. Advanced registration is required and space is limited.
Bookings are closed for this event.

What I wore on this Wintery Wednesday.
In my attempt to cull the pieces in my closet that are detrimental to my well being, I am asking about the top today. I hold it dear to my heart because I got it this summer in the 5th AVE H&M in NYC. However, I am afraid that it is too much like a nightie or maternity top. I will admit it was an impulse buy as I was buying a friend a birthday gift and just grabbed the top on the way to the register. Not a good idea, I know. So, KEEP OR NO?
The rest of the outfit are keepers:
scarf: Nicaragua (Mom brought back from Mission Trip)
Skinny cargos: Target
Boots: Canton Market
Have to show off my SNOW ANGELS!
Attempting to get the ball out of the frozen basketball net.
Making the icicles dance!
Daddy and Mommy love to play in it too.
Just the quiet sound of snow falling is so peaceful!
I love it!

Thank You for commenting on my blog! You are too sweet!ReplyDelete
I love the idea of getting your blog in scrapbook form! That is a very neat idea!
As for your post, I think the shirt looks wonderful with this outfit and I think that you should keep it. :)
And your snow bunnies are beautiful!
I think the top is cute! I have a couple tops cut similarly to this and always feel like someone is going to ask me when I'm due-maybe it's just all in our minds since I get compliments when i do wear them ;)ReplyDelete
I say keep it. You look great!ReplyDelete
I love the outfit! I hear what you are saying about the "maternity" look though. I think the right accesories make an outfit though and the scarf looks great with it. Your girls are darling!!ReplyDelete

Defeating the Guilt Monster: How to take breaks from writing
Plotist administrators
Just because you can fill all your time with writing, doesn't mean you should. But how to deal with the guilt?
Click here to see the full blog post
My guilt is usually more towards the level of dedication I've put into my writing as opposed to the level of dedication I put into actually paying work. :/
Not saying that I half-ass my job, I'm very respectful of my clients and the fact I'm taking their money. I do my best. But... I really don't care about what I do on the same level. And I a part of me feels I'd probably be much better off in life by now if writing hadn't been a distraction all these years. >.>
Josey Plotist Team: Community Storyteller
It's interesting. I'm in a way the same. Though I vacillate based on certain factors. For example, trying to balance work, writing, and life, tends to lead this weird balancing act where my guilt will hit me for not doing one as equally as the other. :)
I don't think you're alone there @Blackbird :)

It's time for another indie game roundup with our latest installment of Lightly Toasted for June 2018. Lightly Toasted is our way of highlighting some of the games we didn't get a chance to properly review during the prior month. It's also a way to give some well deserved feedback from our first few hours with each of these games.
We can only experience so much of a game in such a short amount of time, so please don't take these impressions as a final review! These are just our thoughts on the opening moments and the general gameplay.
Suzy Cube
Noodlecake Studios Inc. delivers a compelling and easy to pick up platformer in its new title, Suzy Cube. With its simplistic art-style, strong platforming, and collectibles, secret locations, challenges, and puzzles, Suzy Cube is an easy game to recommend to those fond of the Super Mario titles.
Like its inspirations, Suzy Cube relies on its mechanics over a cohesive or compelling story. An evil creature steals treasure from a palace and our protagonist goes after it. You will jump, slide, fly, and bounce across the levels to collect the fallen coins and ultimately complete each section. While there is a timer, I never felt in any peril of not completing a mission.
Overall, Suzy Cube offers a few hours of tight gameplay and level design in a world crammed with secrets and puzzles. It's well worth its price of 7.99 USD on Steam.
Artii Games LLC's TimeTekker is an arcade shoot em'up featuring a space ninja who can speed up and slow down time. It is also incredibly difficult and often rewarding in its simplicity. However, I found its controls to be overtly frustrating, at least on a controller.
As the unnamed ninja, you are pitted against hoards of deadly creatures, most of which spit projectiles. When you stand still, the game slows, but when you move, it rapidly speeds up. The ninja is able to parry projectiles, throw shurikens, and attack with a melee weapon. The combat is fast and fluid, and every defeated enemy brings a wave of satisfaction
The issue that arises from this satisfaction, is that much of it stems from beating the control scheme and not the enemies themselves. Neither joystick turns your character, instead that is relegated to the shoulder buttons. When you are also trying to parry and attack with the triggers, this becomes needlessly complicated.
I did enjoy my time with TimeTekker and I'll likely return for the fast-paced combat, but I'd love to see the developer iterate on the movement so that it is less cumbersome.
Honor Cry: Aftermath
I try not to judge indie games too harshly on their writing, but I have to make the exception for top-down RPGs, a genre that is rife with fantastic storytelling both in the AAA and indie markets. SimProse Studios' Honor Cry: Aftermath is not one of these, nor does it ever come close.
The title opens with a overtly gruff voice-over: "Bloody hell, I tire of this war. The Cryum War has been waged for most of my military career, but now, finally, we are at the crossroads." From there, it's just more of the same and if that's okay with you, then by all means play Honor Cry: Aftermath. However, if you want a story that will sink its teeth in and not let go, this is not the game for you.
Outside of its storytelling, Honor Cry is a decent title that never tries to do anything new. The various rogue-like elements add a fair amount of replayability, but outside of that, it doesn't stand out.
Robothorium: Sci-fi Dungeon Crawler
Goblinz Studios' Robothorium: Sci-fi Dungeon Crawler is exactly what it says on the box. The developers have taken the core components of the dungeon crawler genre and brought them into a science fiction setting in which robots are revolting against humanity. You create a party of robots, each with a distinctive role and design, and fight through randomly generated levels based on your choices.
The title is good fun for the first few hours, but repetitive rooms and a weak battle system cut into the gameplay experience. Unfortunately, there is little satisfaction and reward for killing a roomful of enemies as there is little choice in how you proceed. The only way forward is to fight, and after several hours, that becomes more a chore than an enjoyable gameplay loop.
Despite these critiques, Robothorium is still a fun game, and for the right person, it might be a great one. I am not that person, and despite my original joy at this title, I don't see myself returning to it any time soon.

Clodagh Simonds likes to take her time. Following an early spell of musical incandescence in the late '60s and early '70s (in her own group, the fascinating prog folk outfit Mellow Candle), the Irish singer was content to hover in the fringes for three and half decades before taking centre stage again in 2005. But even then, her return was a gradual one; in a new guise, Fovea Hex, Simonds took a further three years to unveil a one-hour cycle of music, titled Neither Speak Nor Remain Silent. But what music it was! the nine tracks—released as three EPs: Bloom (2005), Huge (2006) and Allure (2007)—did nothing less than reinvent from the bottom up the notions of what song is and can be. This was no irreverant act of avant-garde ruthlessness, however; Simonds' folk leanings (and they are only leanings; she has repeatedly stated that she neither thinks of herself as a folk singer, nor does she feel part of a tradition)—despite their proximity in an apparently alien context—were loudly and proudly proclaimed seemingly at every moment. It was, in short, an almost incredible blending of ancient and modern ideas, an enterprise made all the more successful and telling by the contributions of such figures as Brian Eno, Colin Potter, Carter Burwell and The Hafler Trio's Andrew M. McKenzie, who also mesmerisingly reworked each EP for an accompanying CD series.
That choice of title, Neither Speak Nor Remain Silent, could not have been chosen more wisely; it encapsulates perfectly the paradox confronting the listener in Fovea Hex's music. On the one hand, as already stated, the folk elements are emphatically foregrounded, and folk music is at its heart communal music, not to be sat back and listened to, thought about and critiqued; on the contrary, it invites our participation, we are compelled to join in, to speak. Yet equally emphatic is a profound sense of ritual—not exactly a religious sense, it's more diffuse and unfocused than that, but nonetheless a potent, perhaps pagan forcefulness that invokes a rather different kind of response. Rituals are communal acts too, of course, but participation here has more ebb and flow; at times, whether by rubrics or by our inner sense of the numinous, we are compelled to be silent. This unique, magical paradox has returned in dazzling fashion on Fovea Hex's new album, Here Is Where We Used To Sing, released last month. Read more

Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd, Dan Silver and Liam Twomey, ESPN's Chelsea correspondent to look back at a victorious weekend as Chelsea finished the season on a high by beating Man Utd 1-0 to win our eighth FA Cup final.
On the show tonight we'll be revelling in Chelsea's 8th FA Cup trophy and applauding Eden Hazard for winning it and Chidge for predicting that he would.
In part two we'll applaud a superb defensive display and ask is it all about the winning or should football be about entertainment? Has winning the Cup saved the season or has it just papered over the cracks? And with Conte, Courtois, Hazard and Willian all acting out which of them will be going and which will be staying? If Conte does go, would Jardim or Sarri be a good bet?
In part three, we have the usual parish notices and we look back at the season as a whole and ask will the summer be a bummer?
In part four we have some great emails for Jonathan to read out including one on the issue around Roman Abramovich being refused a visa.
Our last Chelsea Fancast of the season will be broadcast on Love Sport Radio this Friday from 7.00-9.00 pm. LOVE SPORT is a London radio station and is broadcast on 558 AM and on London DAB along with numerous digital channels. You can listen from anywhere in the world.
