Full Disclosure, I don't measure anything with my own recipes. It's "about this much of this, a dash of that", etc. The beauty of this method is that you can adapt as needed. The downside, well, sometimes I forget what I added and can't fully remember why it tastes like something is missing. Anyway, I've been making this salsa once or twice a week all summer, and it has been tasting fairly consistent each time 😉 And it's addicting.
Garden Fresh Salsa
- 2-3 medium Roma tomatoes or tomatoes off the vine, OR one large Beef Steak tomato, OR 1 pint of cherry/grape tomatoes. Basically whatever you have in the garden or on hand. Whichever you use, chop into small pieces – keeping the seeds and all.
- One fresh ear of corn, kernels cut from cob
- 1/2 jalapeno – deseeded and finely chopped (if you like extra spice, use a whole one. If you like it REALLY hot, keep the seeds)
- 1/4 – 1/2 Red Onion, finely chopped
- large handful of fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- Juice of 1/2 lemon (you can use a lime if you prefer, or whatever you have on hand)
- Salt to taste
Mix everything together in a medium sized bowl. Adjust lemon juice & salt to taste. Bam. Done. You're welcome 😉

Main cast: Adrian Grenier (Owen), Angela Trimbur (Isabel), Fionnula Flanagan (Violet), Matthew Gray Gubler (Caleb), and AnnaLynne McCord (Pearl)
Director: Richard Bates Jr
Trash Fire is marketed as a horror movie, and I'm playing along by calling it that, but it is actually more of a dark comedy. Wait, that would imply that it is funny, which it isn't. It's drama… wait, it's not very emotional. How about thriller? Well, it gets violent in the last few minutes, but on the whole, the violence happens off-screen – on my blood pressure. I know, I'll just call this movie crap.
Owen is a troubled fellow. He has a big nice house and a hot girlfriend, Isabel, but a traumatic event in his past gives him the excuse to act like a loathsome piece of crap to everyone, and the brunt of his emotional and verbal abuse is Isabel. When Isabel announces that she is pregnant, he offers to split the abortion bill because it's "only a few hundred dollars", and that's just the tip of the iceberg of the hurtful things he would say carelessly to her. Eventually he decides to bring Isabel to meet his grandmother and his scarred and not-quite-together sister Pearl, and surprise, the grandmother Violet is basically an older woman version of Owen. She treats Isabel like dirt, and I only roll up my eyes when Isabel tells Owen that his grandmother is a "cunt". She's sleeping with one, so why is she shocked that his grandmother is the same kind of garbage?
This movie, therefore, is about 90 minutes of people saying the shittiest things to one another. Maybe director and scriptwriter Richard Bates Jr fancy himself something like Neil LaBute who started out making deliberately misanthropic movies to win the hearts of jaded critics, but watching this one is like listening to the trashy neighbors next door screaming at one another day in and out. There is no joy in it, no point at all, and to enjoy this movie requires a suspension of disbelief when it comes to Isabel. I mean, why does she want to keep being with that turd Owen, and why does she keep subjecting herself to the nonsense he and his grandmother put her through? "You can't choose the one you love," she tells a shrink, and this seems, to me, personifies this entire show. It's all about loathsome people and victims who choose to keep debasing themselves to these loathsome turds.
Fortunately, people in real life can choose what they want to love, and avoiding this movie is easy.
Oh, and Adrian Grenier shows quite a lot of skin (as does Angela Trimbur) in two sad non-sexy scenes, but either he's wearing a modesty pouch or they digitally erased his dangling bits, because when he goes full frontal, there is nothing down there but a messy thicket. That's the only unintentionally amusing moment in this movie.

What is the best cream for baby rash especially for diaper rash? Baby who wears diaper is prone to have diaper rash. Although the diaper rash will soon go away within weeks, it makes mommy obviously frustrated. In addition if parents do not treat the diaper rash properly the rash may turns into a severe diaper rash or even a yeast infection.
You can choose best cream for baby rash based on these preferences below:
The first cream is diaper rash cream with zinc oxide. This is a common cream meant for treating diaper rash. The cream will be a good coating to help healing the irritating rash. However, the cream might be effective for mild to moderate diaper rash but not very effective to be applied on severe diaper rash.
The second best cream for baby rash is a butt paste. The butt paste is effective enough for problematic diaper rash and safe enough if used in regular basis to treat diaper rash. It may contain zinc oxide mixed with lanolin, beeswax and or balsam. The cream is said will soothe the irritating rash and make a barrier between the diaper and baby's skin. You might need prescription to get the paste.
For diaper rash with inflammation, you might need hydrocortisone 1% cream. This cream is effective to reduce the inflammation at first layer of application and then followed by the application of another diaper rash cream. You should not use the cream more than twice a day in few days if needed, an extended usage can be harmful or damage the skin.
The next cream is lanolin cream. Lanolin cream is a common cream to treat sore nipples for breastfeeding mother. This is a natural ointment and produced by sheep. People often used this cream since the cream is good to heal the damaged skin.

MCES Project 808700
This project improved an approximately 2-mile section of a regional sanitary sewer located mostly along 66th Street between Humboldt Avenue and 11th Avenue in the city of Richfield. The sewer serves the cities of Richfield and Edina, and transports wastewater to the Metropolitan Wastewater Treatment Plant in St. Paul. The sewer and treatment plant are part of the large metro-area wastewater collection and treatment system operated by Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES). MCES made the improvements by installing a liner to create a new sewer inside the existing sewer, and repaired manholes as needed.
For more information regarding work on 66th Street, please visit http://richfieldsweetstreets.org/66th-street.

A lot of precipitation fell last weekend, and it was over 60°F yesterday, so I decided to try my luck with salamanders this morning. I know it's a little early in the season (and there's still snow on the ground!) but I had some hopes that Spotted Salamanders, or maybe even Jefferson Salamanders, would be heading towards the fishless ponds. I struck out with both of those species, but ended up having a pretty good day overall.
It took me longer than I expected to reach my target creek/seep because I stopped at a fishless pond to search for Ambystoma coming to breed. Unfortunately, there wasn't much cover and I didn't find anything in the cover I flipped. The pond was completely frozen over all the way to the shoreline. Right before the mouth of the seep I encountered a really nice hillside that I intend on revisiting in a few months.
This was my first visit to this creek/seep, and it was much smaller than I was expecting.
After about 20 minutes of finding nothing, I finally flipped a rock that held a salamander! It was a nice, plump Northern Dusky Salamander (Desmognathus fuscus fuscus). The water was pretty chilly, so this individual was pretty torpid and allowed me to take a few photographs before I replaced the rock and guided the salamander back to where I found it.
I found a tiny Northern Two-lined Salamander (Eurycea bislineata) near the Dusky Salamander, but I didn't bother trying to get a photo (there will be plenty of opportunities when it warms up later this year).
As I continued along I started flipping rocks that weren't necessarily in the wet parts of the drainage. I was hoping I might luck into an Eastern Red-backed Salamander (Plethodon cinereous) or a Northern Slimy Salamander (Plethodon glutinous).
I ended up finding quite a few Eastern Red-backed Salamanders, and some of them were awfully tiny.
As I moved up the creek I found a lot of really great habitat that I can't wait to come back to in another 6 weeks or so.
On my way back to the car I lucked into a single rock that was hiding five or six Eastern Red-backed Salamanders and five Pickerel Frogs (Lithobates palustris)!
For a late February morning, I'm pretty pleased with the day's results:
- Northern Dusky Salamander – 4 (3 adults, 1 larval)
- Northern Two-lined Salamander – 1
- Eastern Red-backed Salamander – 15
- Northern Red Salamander – 1 (larval)
- Green Frog – 2
- Pickerel Frog – 5

Mid Michigan Ragdoll Cats
The Ragdoll Cat originated from California in the early 1960's. The bred was created by Ann Baker who combined the best attributes of Persians, Bermans, and Burmese cats to develop what is known today as the Ragdoll Cat. Ragdoll cats are typically large and muscular with a silky hair coat. Coat colors are white or cream with seal, blue, or lilac points. The breed obtained the name because they will actually go limp in your arms, like a child's ragdoll.
The beautiful Mink Ragdoll is bred through only a handful of breeders around the world who wish to continue with these rare old lines of Solids and Minks. Minks are purchased, SBT registered, and have the same personalities and favorable characteristics as the traditional variety Ragdoll Cat.
The Mink Ragdoll is borne with full color, unlike the traditional Ragdoll. Traditional point kittens usually take several days to begin to show color. The coat of a Mink is smoother and much softer, and develops a darker and much richer point color than the traditional Ragdoll. The body color of a Mink is a few grades lighter than their points.
Minks come in the same colors as Traditional Ragdolls. Recognized colors are: Blue, Blue/Cream, Seal, Lilac, Flame, Cream, Chocolate and Tortie.
They also have the same coat patterns. Recognized patterns are Mitted, Color Point and Bi-color. Pattern overlays are Tortie Point and Lynx Point. Eye color is a stunning Bluish-Green Aqua.
Mitted Ragdolls have a colored mask and ears, but their legs have white mittens on the front paws and white boots on the back legs. The mitted pattern can be any of the colors mentioned and may have the Lynx Point or Tortie Point pattern added. Mitted Ragdolls also have a white chin, ruff, and stomach.
Color Points have colored mask, ears, feet, nose, paw pads and tail. The Color Point Ragdoll has no white in its point pattern.
Bi-Color patterns are marked by a noticeable white inverted "V" in the mask. They have point colored ears and tail with white legs, feet, ruff and stomach. The nose and pads of a Bi-Color are pink.
Tortie Point pattern overlays any of the previous patterns. A Tortie cat will have Red or Cream mixed with one of the other colors: Seal, Blue, Chocolate or Lilac.
Lynx Point pattern shows up as tabby markings on the face in what looks like the letter "M" on the forehead.
Ragdoll Cat Trivia
The Algonquin Hotel in New York City keeps a Ragdoll in its lobby. This tradition of keeping a cat dates to the 1930s; males are named Hamlet and females Matilda.
The current Matilda is an 11-year old female ragdoll who strolls the lobby and perches on the front desk. She was recently named cat of the year at the Westchester Cat Show in Westchester County, New York. Matilda has a signature cocktail in the hotel bar; her likeness is on a children's book and Christmas ornament.
Thank you for your interest in Mid-Michigan Ragdolls. Please contact me if you have any questions or would like further information.

Not ready to give up your riding, but aren't a fan of long rides in the cold and damp or *gasp* SNOW?? It's time to get back at it and start building the foundations for a great 2017 cycling season! The Fall program is designed to rebuild your base, work on pedaling technique, and add some intensity. We'll start the program with a baseline test to determine your FTP (functional threshold power) so that the workouts are tailored to your specific fitness level. Our Thursday evening class is short but intense, a brief warmup followed by a series of intervals designed to put your aerobic system to use. Sunday classes are longer, and will focus on pedaling drills and longer intervals. The intensity of the intervals may be a little less, but we make up for it in volume! This is a great program to prepare for the more intense Winter program starting in January.
Improve your basic cycling skills, stop guessing at how hard you should be working and make the most of your time on the bike! Using your own bike, on state of the art computerized Computrainer stationary trainers, our coaches will lead you through a great workout each week, all based on your own current abilities. Improve your cycling technique and efficiency, so you're getting more power & speed with less effort!
You'll also learn proper bike setup, warmup & cooldown protocol as well as cycling specific stretching.
Don't go it alone — join us and see how much more fun it is when you ride with others!
Precision Multisport
2114 Jackson Ave, Evanston, IL 60201
We have TWO Class Options:
THURSDAYS — 8 classes (October 27 through December 15)
- 7:00–8:30pm
SUNDAYS — 8 classes (October 30 through December 18)
- 9:00–11:00am
(Total time includes instruction/setup before and after)
Limited Availability
Group Class: each class is limited to a maximum # of participants (8 for Thursdays and 16 for Sundays). If there are not enough participants that register, we reserve the right to cancel the class and refund any fees paid.
Thursday night classes will focus more on higher intensity, interval training. Sunday morning classes focus on the transition from base miles and strength based workouts to more intense, threshold and anaerobic based workouts. The goal is to make you more comfortable (loosely used term) with working near your threshold for extended periods and to be able to adapt to changes in ride pace once you move back to outdoor rides. This phase of training will combine leg speed drills, endurance rides, TT efforts and shorter high intensity efforts.
These workouts can be strenuous and participants will benefit from having a solid foundation of base miles or previous participation in CES CompuTrainer sessions.
What to expect the first day…
The program begins with an introduction to proper techniques for setup on a stationary trainer, efficient cycling technique, indoor riding tips/tricks and use of a heart rate monitor. The coaches will take you through a 30-minute test to determine your proper training zones. Utilizing this information, the Computrainer sessions are designed for your exact fitness level. Expect to ride for approximately 90 minutes.
Required Equipment
All participants must bring the following to each class:
- road or triathlon bike (no mountain or hybrids)
- 1-2 water bottles
- cycling or triathlon specific shorts recommended!
- small towel or two (yes, you'll be working up a sweat!)

The heart requires a balance between oxygen supply and oxygen demand in order to function properly. The integrity of the coronary arteries is an important determinant of oxygen supply to the heart muscle, any disorder that reduces the lumen of one of the coronary arteries may cause a decrease in blood flow and oxygen delivery to the area of myocardium supplied by that vessel and lead to acute coronary syndromes of acute myocardial infarction.
Myocardial infarction refers to a dynamic process by which one or more regions of the heart muscle experience a severe and prolonged decrease in oxygen supply because of insufficient coronary blood flow. This causes severe chest pain and might kill the victim within seconds. Some attacks may be silent but eventually deadly.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the main culprit of heart attack is the presence of Coronary Artery Disease or CAD which is caused by fat deposits sticking to the vessel walls. Thus, they prevent the passage of blood to supply oxygen to the muscles of the heart. It is the leading cause of death. In fact, around 610,000 people die of heart disease in the United States every year and less than 800,000 Americans suffer from heart attack.
Lifestyle changes and modifications may reduce the risk of having a heart attack. Limiting intake of high fat foods, reducing weight, eating healthy and regular exercise are proven steps to prevent heart attack from killing people.
According to Health.com, everyone should know CPR or cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This is a lifesaver especially for patients who had a heart attack. CPR saves the body as it does the work for the heart. Chest compressions continue pumping out blood from the heart to the vital parts of the body including the brain. When the brain does not receive the oxygen it needs for more than two minutes, it will cause nerve necrosis or nerve cell death which is fatal.

Derwent Valley Medical Centre joined the APCC Program to learn about implementing new systems that would help improve patient access to care. they successfully tested and implemented ideas they learnt through attending APCC workshops. The team now has a greater focus on shared learning, improving team skills and strengthening partnerships with other health services within their division.
Location: New Norfolk, Tasmania.
Staff: 7 GPs (3 full time, 4 part time), 4 practice nurses (2 RNs, 2 ENs), 4 administration staff and a practice manager.
Patients: At commencement of the Program (October 2008) there were 5,812 active patients, which has grown to 6,610 (May 2010).
Goal: To implement new systems in the health service which allow for more timely access to GPs and decrease unmet demand.
Derwent Valley Medical Centre (DVMC) provides 90% of their primary healthcare to the Derwent Valley and surrounding areas, including patients at the local aged care facility. Visiting specialists include a psychologist, exercise physiologist, podiatrist, diabetes educator, urologist, as well as pathology services. The local hospital, New Norfolk District Hospital, is nearby with allied health services and community nursing available at the hospital.
The challenge for the staff at DVMC was to undertake small, manageable and achievable changes that could result in improvements to their systems of care, in order to improve their patients access to care. Attending APCC workshops gave the practice nurses the opportunity to see that other health services shared similar issues with access to care.
They were also able to hear how other health services had made improvements – by taking small, manageable steps towards a larger overall goal.
At the health service, the team developed an appointment advice fact sheet (included below), based on the '12 minute slip' resource seen at one of the APCC workshops. The fact sheet included information about:
• the time allocation for a standard appointment
• booking a longer appointment and when this would be appropriate, and
• DVMC's reasons for implementing this new process.
The fact sheets were printed on coloured paper, laminated and placed on each chair in the waiting room, with the aim that patients would read the sheet while waiting for their appointment and then leave it on the chair for the next patient to read.
Patients provided positive feedback about the appointment advice fact sheet and reception staff noted an improvement of patients respecting the demands on doctors' appointment times. The staff at DVMC also tested and then implemented the 'traffic light' system, another idea learnt at an APCC workshop. The 'traffic light' system works by coding each GP's availability at the beginning of each day, so reception staff can book appointments accordingly.
The coding is as follows:
• RED – Can this patient see another doctor if this visit is not for a follow up.
• YELLOW – Book with caution, offer an alternative doctor.
• GREEN – These Doctors are available for booking.
A sign is displayed in the waiting room notifying patients of this system so they understand why they may be prompted to book in with an alternate GP.
Through their involvement in the APCC Program, DVMC has had the opportunity for their staff to pause and review their systems of care.
Specific outcomes include:
- Nurse roles have expanded – the nurses have taken on a leadership role within the health service. They now complete Health Assessments, GP Management Plans and 4yr old Health Checks, in addition to running nurseled immunisation clinics.
- Improved access to GPs and fewer appointments running overtime, which is largely attributed to the increased patient awareness of consult times and the need to make a double booking for multiple problems.
- There is a stronger focus on improving team skills, a greater understanding of individual staff roles and improved communication. The team have shared what they have learnt from involvement in the Program with other Collaborative participants through regular gatherings over dinner, facilitated by their Division; General Practice South (GPS).
- The practice nurses also pass on information and resources they have been exposed to through the Program to health services not directly involved, through Practice Nurse Network meetings, facilitated by GPS.
- The health service value the ability to track how they are performing by collecting data and analysing it on a monthly basis. The benefits of measuring improvements are both tangible – statistics provide good evidence upon which to base future decisions; and intangible – improved communication and the confidence to deal with issues that affect the health service.
Achieving these outcomes has meant better outcomes for patients, a happier working environment for staff and doctors and a more sustainable health service
At the 2010 bi-annual Quality in Practice awards, DVMC was presented the '2008 Australian General Practice Accreditation Limited (AGPAL) Practice of
the Year'.
Looking Forward
Using quality improvement skills and tools learnt through the Program and ideas 'borrowed' from their peers, DVMC will continue to test changes to make improvements. DVMC also plans to continually strengthen their relationships and networks with other health services and their Division.
The team at Derwent Valley Medical Centre successfully tested then implemented two initiatives for improving access to care at their
health service. These two simple changes made a significant improvement in patient access to care. The team is focused on continuing the APCC philosophy of sharing ideas, strengthening team work and collaborating with other health services in their Division.
"Involvement in the Program helped us to recognise where there were opportunities for improvement. There will always be room for improvement as systems change
on a daily basis, but we now feel that we have a better team approach to make the necessary changes."

Being late is annoying for patients and stressful for staff and doctor.
We are keen to fix our continual lateness. One of the problems is that our consultations are running over time.
Just 4 Minutes extra per consultation means that the doctor is 1 Hour late at the end of the morning!
You can help by….
1. Being aware that your time with the doctor will be about 12/15minutes
2. Being understanding if the doctors suggests you come back to address remaining issues. (perhaps make a list to share with the doctor, ask our reception staff for a pad and pen)
3. Understanding that a 'fit in' appointment is for really urgent 'can't wait' conditions on the day, and deal Only with that One Urgent problem.
Thank you for taking the time to read this slip, we look forward to your co-operation in this matter

Week before last, as I thought of the upcoming gala for the Walter Anderson Museum of Art, I contemplated doing a sculpture for the silent auction. They are always popular, especially those that suggest the artist himself…with his signature hat and some creature or bird as a symbol of his love for nature.
I was ill that week, trying to recover from a urinary tract infection that struck hard over the weekend. But I seemed to be recovering. I had to recover…with the paper doll exhibit coming up, not to mention a book signing at Barnes & Noble and the WAMA artist's party itself at which donations would be accepted.
Yes, I contemplated a sculpture
with others in mind.
What would please was foremost
as I placed my basket of wire
on the floor by my chair.
In my hands the wire writhed a bit
as I struggled to ignore gut-feelings
and keep to my plan.
The truth of the matter was this:
that my own deep wanting
was striving
to reach my hands,
while my mental and habitual tendencies
stubbornly carried on.
Instead of a woman
resting voluptuously in her naked solitude,
I brought forth my father:
the celebrated artist
whose fame had made him
so in demand.
Never mind that the living man
would have wanted his daughter
to be true to herself.
Above all,
to be true to herself…
The figure got done, and I leaned him against the black drape to take his picture. Otherwise, he remains unfinished. The Gala is over. And when I look at Walter now, I dream up ways to get him out of the box. Or is it the woman I want to get out of the box? Maybe both of us – Daddy and me – finally free of external agendas. I can easily see my daddy proudly walking right out of that box. And his daughter – the woman – the sculpture that I truly am wanting to make of myself… I see her reclining peacefully, smiling as the world rushes by.

I got an email back from my supervisor (Rebecca) telling me that she loved the cover illustration that I did for the book. She also said that Hannah, her little girl and the writer, also loved it. She told me she was amazed on how fast I got that done, which made me feel more confident about my work.
Today she also emailed me saying that she wants me to send her a copy of each illustration one by one as soon as I get them done so she can plan in how to place them, scale them, and other things that they need to get done before the book is printed out.
I worked on the illustration of page 1, and I found it a little bit hard because I wanted to keep the original colors used for Hannah's drawings but because Rebecca wanted me to make the background white, the yellow animals from the original drawing were hard to see with that background. I decided I was going to change the colors and values to ones that matched better and that looked good, and I also made the image more interesting by adding some action onto the animals.
I just finished emailing Rebecca the illustration I did today and I told her that I'm open to suggestions. So I just need to wait until she replies back.
Without saying more, here is the illustration of the day:

A very large study of people who were diagnosed with celiac disease has found that the disease appears to be linked with an increased risk of nerve damage. People with celiac were about 2.5 times more likely to be diagnosed with nerve damage (neuropathy) as those without celiac.
Celiac disease is a disease where the immune system attacks the lining of the small intestine when gluten is eaten. Gluten is a protein found primarily in wheat, but also in barley and rye grain. The association between celiac disease and neuropathy has been known for some time, but the actual risk of neuropathy for people with celiac was not known.
Researchers at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, the Karolinska Institut in Stockholm, and Orebro University Hospital in Orebro, Sweden, collected data on biopsies of the small intestine that were done in Sweden between 1989 and 2008. They compared the risk of neuropathy in more than 28,000 people diagnosed with celiac disease with that of nearly 140,000 people who did not have celiac. They found that 198 people with celiac disease (about 0.7%) later were diagnosed with neuropathy, compared to 359 (0.3%) of those without it.
Although the actual risk of developing nerve damage is low, the researchers noted that it might be beneficial for physicians to screen patients who are diagnosed with celiac for nerve damage.
Celiac affects about 1% of the population of the United States, which is about 1 in every 133 Americans. It is believed that more than 80% of people with celiac are either not diagnosed or are diagnosed incorrectly as having another disease. In children, symptoms of celiac disease include diarrhea, vomiting, bloating, and weight loss as well as failure to grow properly. In adults, the symptoms can include fatigue, bone and joint pain, arthritis, or other symptoms.

Getting a new job in a different part of the city or in a different part of the country is one of the most common reasons for moving. Along with the issues that come with getting that job, you also have to be concerned with buying a new house and moving out of your old one. Here are some tips to help you do this as smoothly as possible:
- Stay organized. Organization is going to be the key to making your move as easy as moving can possibly be. To make sure that you do not lose the things that you are trying to move, you will want to make a list of everything that is packed and label your boxes so you know where in your new home you want them to go. A to-do list will help you stay on track and make sure everything that needs to be done is getting done, so that when moving day actually comes, you do not have to rush to finish packing and to clean your apartment.
- Scout your new area before buying. Before buying your new home, you need to take the time to make sure you have thoroughly scouted the area. This means visiting the area, looking at the amenities (like schools, parks, and shopping), and then making sure that the area has everything that you need in your living space. You do not want to be too far from your new job, so make sure you know where your work location is, how to get there, and what kind of routes you can take to travel between your workplace and your new home.
- Consolidate your belongings. Moving is a great time to gather up what you no longer need and to throw it away. If you have items in your house that you have never used, it's time to get rid of them, instead of dragging them with you to your new house. You can either have a garage sale and try to make a little extra cash before moving out, or you can simply give the items away. If they are not in good shape, you might consider just throwing them out if you are sure you do not need them and no one else could use them.

If you've come across the "Bratayley" YouTube channel then you probably knew Caleb Logan. He was the oldest child of the YouTube-famous Bratayley family and thus he was known online as Caleb Bratayely.
The Bratayleys can be likened to an online but much more modest version of the Kardashians. However, the Bratayleys, unlike the Kardashians, do not have the glitz and glam of Hollywood. They are just regular people who happen to share their daily lives on the internet.
Caleb Logan starred in his family's YouTube channel alongside his sisters Annie and Hayley. The family's popular vlogging YouTube channel documents their daily life as a family: homeschooling, baking, baseball games, just regular family stuff.
The Bratayley's most viewed video has raked up to 58 million views and their fan base cuts across various social media platforms.
Unfortunately, the young YouTube star passed away in October 2015 following an undetected heart condition. He was only a teenager. The last vlog in which Caleb featured was uploaded a day after his death and it was titled "Dear future self". The video showed a healthy though sleepy-eyed Caleb having breakfast with his sisters.
His death raised a lot of online speculations with many questioning it as mysterious. The speculations were however put to rest after an official statement from the police department confirmed that there was nothing suspicious about the death of the youngster.
Caleb Logan's Bio, Wiki
Caleb Logan was born Caleb Logan LeBlanc on July 13, 2002, to Katie and Billy LeBlanc in Georgia. His father Billy Leblanc is a military man. The Bratayley YouTube channel was started in 2010.
Through the family's daily vlogs, Caleb was endeared to many as a teen who was incredibly funny with a loving and wonderful spirit. The young star also ran a gaming channel called "blazenoutlaws" where he frequently posted Minecraft videos. He had over 113,000 followers on that channel.

Caleb's love for Baseball was obvious from the family's vlogs. His father took him to a professional baseball game for his thirteenth birthday, the last he ever had.
The "Bratayley" channel was originally created for Caleb's sister Hayley but it ended up being a family vlog channel. The channel name "Bratayley" is a combination of Brat and Hayley.
Caleb Logan's nickname was "Baked Potato" and his Instagram handle was also iamabakedpotato. He created the "I am a Baked Potato" song which is played at the end of every vlog. He was featured on a channel called "truthplusdare" also ran by the Bratayleys and he collaborated with his sisters on the "OMMyGoshTV" channel.
He wanted to be a baseball player and a gamer. His favourite colours were purple and black and his favourite food was macaroni and cheese.
Caleb Logan was signed by Disney's Maker Studios. Before his death, the family was recruited by Disney for the unboxing of their latest Star Wars toys.

Caleb Logan's Death And How He Died
Caleb passed on in October 2015 at the tragically young age of 13. He died of natural causes at 7.08pm on October 1, 2015. His passing was announced on social media by his family.
His medical report revealed that the YouTube star suffered a medical emergency and was promptly rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. His death was devastating to both the Bratayley family and their numerous fans.
The cause of death was revealed in a tribute posted by his family on Instagram. He died from an undiagnosed heart condition Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. According to the American Heart Association, the condition affects one in every 500 people. The youngster had remained asymptomatic and the heart condition remained undetected in his yearly medical check-ups. As the condition is a genetic one, the Bratayleys had Caleb's siblings checked to forestall a reoccurrence of such tragedy.
Caleb Logan's hour-long memorial service was broadcast via live stream on Facebook and Periscope by the family and over 40,000 people tuned in to witness it. After his death, the family took a break from their daily vlogs in order to mourn their beloved son privately.
From about 1 billion cumulative views before Caleb's death, The Bratayleys YouTube channel has accumulated 3 billion views.

The Kettering Town (Poppies) Supporters Trust Board have issued an open letter to the club's majority shareholder and only remaining director Imraan Ladak.
The supporters group's move comes as the Poppies continue to fight for their existence after hitting more financial problems.
Ladak has returned to the club after claiming it was spending money it didn't have and, just last week, he revealed that a person or persons had made an offer to buy the Nene Park stadium.
However, since then the players' wages for this month have not been paid in full while former chairman Ritchie Jeune and another director Gary Graham have stepped back from helping to run the club while the Trust themselves have also stopped their help in the day-to-day running of the club.
They have now demanded that Ladak reveals his full plans for the future of the club in a hard hitting open letter.
The letter reads as follows:
Dear Imraan,
It is now almost a month since you returned to our football club.
You stated publicly that you were unhappy with the direction the club was taking, and that was why you had to step in.
However, to the best of our knowledge, prior to your return all players' wages and external commitments were being met by the club, either from funds generated or via donations and loans from individuals that you no longer wish to be involved in the management of the club.
Since your return it has been publicly commented upon that players and staff have not been paid in full, despite assurances that the shareholders would meet any shortfalls.
You stated that you were talking to potential investors who would "please the supporters". We are still waiting to hear who these investors are. More to the point, we are still waiting to hear WHERE they are. We all know the club needs investment NOW!
You said in your last statement that you are surprised to see the club had kept and exceeded George Rolls' budget when his investment would no longer be forthcoming following his FA Ban, yet you have alienated the one person who was putting funds into the club other than its fans.
We can only assume you have a plan. Now is the time to share it with us all.
You dismissed out of hand Ritchie Jeune's idea of a move to Corby, even though he intimated there were legal grounds for doing so.
You opted to stay at Nene Park and pay the rent at the expense of paying staff.
You insisted you are not a guarantor on any lease agreement at Nene Park, so what is the hold for you to keep us there?
You stated prior to the move that no lease would be signed unless it proved to be sustainable – yet within months of the move the lack of sustainability became apparent through the non-payment of players' wages.
It should be noted that you expressed no such qualms about breaking the lease at Rockingham Road. Any legal fight that may have arisen from walking away from Nene Park could well have proved bleak for the club, but from where we are standing the future is looking bleak whichever way we turn.
On two occasions in the last three weeks you have asked to meet with the Trust's Mike Quinn and Mark Severn.
However, with the contradiction in facts that we have received from yourself and George Rolls of Poppies Events (which was highlighted to you in conversation by Mark Severn) we feel such a meeting would be futile.
Why don't you now hold a public forum so that your plans can be articulated to all the supporters?
The growing negativity around the club has been caused by your return.
Supporters remember the days of poor budgeting and the constant blaming of everyone else rather than taking responsibility yourself.
One person signed the lease to Nene Park last year. One person stopped paying the players, the staff, local suppliers and almost everyone else last season.
One person misled supporters over the sold sponsorship for Nene Park last season and the revenue that would be brought in.
One person has pushed this season's sponsor away from the club and one person failed to pay the players' wages in full last week.
If our club has a future, tell us.
ALL of us.

Judging Others: A Hindrance to Kindness
Today I was struck by chapter seven--"The Rewards of Kindness". Carolyn Mahaney talks about the essence of kindness and goodness and then the hindrances of them as well; hindrances like anger, bitterness, and judging. I sometimes, sadly, find that I think badly about someone only to find out later that I was wrong. When I judge others, I am "engaging in evil activity" as Mahaney properly calls it.
I loved a little poem that she posted in the chapter. It is quite comical:
A woman was waiting at an airport one night,
With several long hours before her flight.
She hunted for a book in the airport shop,
Bought a bag of cookies and found a place to drop.
She was engrossed in her book, but happened to see,
That the man sitting beside her, as bold as could be,
Grabbed a cookie or two from the bag between,
Which she tried to ignore, to avoid a scene.
She read, munched cookies, and watched the clock,
As the gutsy "cookie thief" diminished her stock.
She was getting more irritated as the minutes ticked by,
Thinking, If I wasn't so nice, I would blacken his eye!
With each cookie she took, he took one too.
When only one was left, she wondered what he'd do.
With a smile on his face and a nervous laugh,
He took the last cookie and broke it in half.
He offered her half, as he ate the other.
She snatched it from him and thought, Oh brother,
This guy has some nerve and he's also rude.
Why, he didn't even show any gratitude!
She had never known when she had been so galled,
And sighed with relief when her flight was called.
She gathered her belongings and headed to the gate,
Refusing to look back at the "thieving ingrate."
She boarded the plane and sank in her seat,
Then sought her book, which was almost complete.
As she reached in her baggage, she gasped with surprise:
There were her cookies in front of her eyes.
If mine are here, she moaned with dispair,
Then the others were his and he tried to share!
Too late to apologize, she realized with grief,
That she was the rude one, the ingrate, the thief!
{Nancy Wilson, The Fruit of Her Hands (Moscow, Ida:Canon Press 1997), p.33.}
Lord, help me not to judge others! And help my friends to read this wonderful book:)

it may be the clearest most challenging yet simply stated biblical advice that i've ever come across.
i'm reading all the chapters out of order and have read some of them twice already. it stays on my night table and sometimes i'm rebuked by just glancing at the cover!
glad you are enjoying it too!
Thanks for sharing! I needed that reminder as I think of a specific circumstance in my life today.ReplyDelete
And that story was a great reminder. I can't believe I had forgotten about it. I think I laughed as hard this time as I did the first time I read it. What a great way to get a point across.
Great post. Isn't it terrible how we can judge others so effortlessly. Our mind just automatically does that and often (in my case, anyway :) it is negative.ReplyDelete
I will have to check out this book.
That poem is too funny. Nate and I are constantly laughing about how I quietly fume about things like that and he just says what's on his mind, fixes it, and moves on. Oh, to be more that way...ReplyDelete
I'll be looking into getting that book. Thanks for the tip! :)
I know this is wayyy late.. over a year.. but I came across this entry (because of the title) and said to myself " Uh,, what?" But..I think because your theologically sound. You can read a book like this and not be influenced. But those who don't know truth from error, can be heavily influenced, and be led astray. I do know that the pastor admited that he did not believe in a hell, and that he basically believes all will end up in heaven. He was on the White Horse Inn, or the dividing light (can't remember) when he said that. I try and stay away from books like this or any books that are not theologically sound like the Rob bell books and films. I just don't see the point of wasting my mind on things that don't edify me.ReplyDelete
But,I am glad to read your entry. It was interesting.
oh dear, Christina,ReplyDelete
you must be referring to a different Mahaney than the one that I mention here.....
CJ and Carolyn Mahaney are very theologically sound, believe that there is a hell, and that only those who are called and saved by God will be in Heaven.... This is a book that I highly recommend.... you can buy it at the book table at church too.

Armenian Church Diocesan Banquet Honors Congressman Gus Bilirakis, Sandra Shahinian Leitner
PALM HARBOR, FL – Two distinguished individuals were honored for their support of the Armenian Church and the larger Armenian community at the annual Awards Banquet held as part of the 115th Diocesan Assembly in Palm Harbor, FL, on Friday evening, May 5.
Diocesan Primate Archbishop Khajag Barsamian presided over the banquet, which was hosted by St. Hagop Church of Pinellas Park, FL.
The award for the "Friend of the Armenians" was bestowed on U.S. Congressman Gus Bilirakis. A longtime supporter of Armenia and an advocate for Armenian Genocide recognition, Congressman Bilirakis has also been an outspoken proponent of preserving the Christian heritage in Turkey and the Middle East.
As the vice chair of the Congressional Armenian Caucus, he has worked to strengthen relations and economic cooperation between the U.S., Armenia, and Nagorno-Karabagh.
"This award means very much to me. I feel like I'm more than a friend—I'm a cousin," Congressman Bilirakis said, referring to his Greek-American heritage.
He recalled hearing stories about the burning of Smyrna as a child, and being raised in a hardworking, pious Christian community. "We stand on the shoulders of our ancestors," he said, "As long as they're not forgotten, their sacrifice will continue to have meaning now and into the future."
He went on to speak about his commitment to protecting Christians in the Middle East, creating opportunities for Orthodox church leaders to be heard by government officials, and pursuing efforts for Genocide recognition.
"Congressman Bilirakis, I want you to know that the entire Armenian Church community is grateful to you," Archbishop Barsamian said. "We are proud to have such an honorable friend as you, lending your voice and strength to our own. I know you are a man of faith, and I want you to know that our prayers are always with you."
Receiving this year's "Armenian Church Member of the Year" award was Sandra Shahinian Leitner.
Ms. Shahinian Leitner has served the Armenian Church in a variety of capacities in her home parish of St. Leon Church of Fair Lawn, NJ, and on the Diocesan level. She is currently a Diocesan Trustee and board member of the Fund for Armenian Relief.
Ms. Shahinian Leitner recalled how she became involved in church leadership in her local parish and learned valuable lessons there that she took with her to other roles both on a Diocesan and global levels. She also noted the example of other women who have served the Armenian Church and laid the groundwork for women's involvement in church leadership.
"My legacy is fleeting," she had said in an interview prior to the awards banquet. "If anything, I hope that I have both touched individuals and influenced ways of thinking that will benefit us as a community of people who want to do good in the world."
Both awards were presented by Archbishop Barsamian and Diocesan Council chair James Kalustian.
"Sandra puts all her energy, attention, and creativity into everything she is involved with—and it always leads to success," Archbishop Barsamian said.
"On a personal level, Sandra is an individual of very fine character; honest, hard-working, and positive in outlook; a woman of grace, fine taste, and discernment," he added. "She is friendly and generous with people from all walks of life."
The Rev. Fr. Hovnan Demerjian, pastor of St. Hagop Church, spoke about the importance of keeping Christ at the center of our daily lives. He said it is up to the new generation to carry forward the legacy of the visionary founders of the Eastern Diocese.
"Our diocese is like Noah's Ark—it delivered our people to safety after the Genocide," he said. "Our ancestors built Armenian churches in America and said thanks to God, like Noah did."
Stepan Serpekian, St. Hagop Church Assembly committee chair, welcomed the clergy, delegates, and parishioners to the celebratory evening. He expressed gratitude to the St. Hagop Church Assembly committee for their hard work in organizing the weekend's meetings.
As St. Hagop Church is marking its 10th anniversary of consecration this year, parish council chair Dr. Michael Shahnasarian noted all the people who have contributed to building the community over the last decade. "We have great fellowship and a great community," he said.
Aram Megerian served as the master of ceremonies. Susanna Hovhannisyan sang the national anthems of the U.S. and Armenia. Tatev Baroyan performed arias from Puccini and Babajanian.
Armenian Church Diocesan Assembly Convenes in Florida
PALM HARBOR, FL – More than 125 clergy and lay delegates, representing parishes from across the Eastern Diocese, gathered in Palm Harbor, FL, from May 4 to 6, for the 115th Diocesan Assembly, hosted by St. Hagop Church of Pinellas Park, FL.
Archbishop Khajag Barsamian, Primate of the Diocese of the Armenian Church of America (Eastern), presided over the meeting. In his message to delegates on Friday morning, May 5, Archbishop Barsamian spoke about ways the church must expand its ministries to reach people in the 21st century.
He noted the Diocese's new Creative Ministries project, which teaches the history and traditions of the Armenian Church through video and audio episodes, and mentioned other efforts to use technology for outreach.
Turning to some of the challenges facing the Diocese, he spoke about recent meetings with parishioners in different regions and their concerns about declining membership, modern social ills, and the difficulty of attracting young people, among other things.
"Admittedly, some of these are issues our church cannot simply settle overnight," he said. "But at the same time, I feel that none of these concerns is so great that we cannot overcome them—together. We need to speak openly together. Plan and work together. And above all, pray together—pray for the well-being of each of our parish communities."
He went on to speak about the Diocese's commitment to preparing pastors through the program at St. Nersess Armenian Seminary. Archbishop Barsamian mentioned the seminary's new campus in Armonk and the Diocese's support of clergy pursuing advanced degrees through the continuing education initiative.
Reflecting on this spring's release of "The Promise," the new feature film about the Armenian Genocide, Archbishop Barsamian reminded clergy and delegates that the generation of 1915 charted a new course for their children and children.
"In a world where ugliness, suffering, madness was all around them, they never lost sight of the beautiful, the gentle, the holy," he said of the Holy Martyrs of the Armenian Genocide.
"They held onto those qualities like precious seeds, and they replanted them here, in this country, when they resettled their lives. We today are the inheritors of what they planted."
Rev. Fr. Arsen Mirzoyan read the message of His Holiness Karekin II, the Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians. Fr. Mirzoyan and Rev. Fr. Sahak Sahakyan both attended the Diocesan Assembly as representatives of Holy Etchmiadzin.
"We exhort you to make the Eastern Diocese and our church prosper with God-pleasing works and commitments for the glory of God and for the well-being of our God-loving people," His Holiness wrote.
The Rev. Fr. Avedis Kalayjian gave the report of the Clergy Conference, held from May 1-3 at the Bethany Center in Lutz, FL.
Gail Guroian gave a report of the Parish Council Chairs meeting held on the morning of May 4. The meeting was led by Diocesan Council member Paul Mardoian, and gave parish council chairs a chance to address discuss issues, such as outreach, welcoming new members, hall rentals, and other parish building initiatives.
Diocesan Council chair James Kalustian highlighted accomplishments of the previous year. He noted that the council has been working with several parishes which are in the process of building new sanctuaries and halls, including Hye Pointe Church of Bradford, MA; St. Gregory the Enlightener Church of White Plains, NY; St. James Church of Watertown, MA; and St. Sarkis Church of Dallas, TX. He also mentioned the renovation of Haik and Alice Kavookjian Auditorium at the Diocesan Center and the increase in rentals the Diocese looks forward to in the coming year.
Regarding the council's strategic plan, Mr. Kalustian mentioned efforts to continue developing topic-driven programming, support continuing education for clergy, and assisting parishes with community outreach.
Archbishop Vicken Aykazian, Diocesan Legate and Ecumenical Director, spoke about the plight of Christians in the Middle East and the importance to advocate on their behalf in the United States. He described his trip to Iraq last January, where he met Christian refugees and heard first-hand about the threats they face in their daily lives.
Archbishop Aykazian also spoke about his efforts to advocate for the recognition of the Armenian Genocide and work with the new administration to boost support for Armenia and Artsakh.
On Friday morning, May 5, the Diocese's communications and ministries staff members made a presentation about the new Creative Ministries project. They screened several videos in the "Bread & Salt" series, discussed podcasts, and shared supplemental materials available for parish schools and study groups.
Clergy and delegates then had an opportunity to attend small group sessions, where they heard reports from various Diocesan department leaders, as well as representatives of St. Nersess Seminary, the Fund for Armenian Relief, Armenian Church Endowment Fund, ACYOA, Sacred Music Council, Ararat Center, and the Women's Guild.
In the afternoon, delegates heard from the Auditing Committee and Diocesan Council treasurer Roseann Manoogian Attar. They approved the revised 2017 budget and the proposed $4.6 million budget for 2018.
Melanie Dadourian and Oscar Tatosian, co-chairs of the Diocese's Endowment Campaign, spoke about the effort to raise $15 million to support Diocesan and parish programs. The "Our Church, Our Legacy" campaign was launched last fall to inspire every Armenian, strengthen their faith, and make the church a relevant part of daily life.
"Our goal is to make the church more relevant to every parishioner in every region of the Diocese," Ms. Dadourian said. "We want everyone to feel a part of this effort and help us grow the church."
She announced that $8 million has already been raised. "We have a very strong start," added Mr. Tatosian, "but there's still a long way to go."
Another campaign now underway across the Diocese aims to raise funds to restore Christ's tomb in Jerusalem. The Rev. Fr. Arakel Aljalian and the Rev. Fr. Mardiros Chevian, members of the "Save the Tomb" campaign committee, gave an overview of its progress, noting that more than a third of the $300,000 goal has been raised to date. They encouraged delegates to support fundraising receptions planned for the coming months, and announced that the Diocese will organize an Easter pilgrimage to the Holy Land next year.
Charles Takesian was presented with the "St. Vartan Award" in recognition of his leadership of the Armenian Church community of Ocala, FL.
On Saturday, May 6, clergy and delegates received the reports of the NEA and ERA Bylaws Review Committee. They approved a proposal directing the Diocesan Council to centralize administrative services—such as health insurance, payroll, or human resources policies—to leverage the collective strength of the parishes. A second proposal to ensure that assembly minutes are finalized and distributed to delegates in a timely manner was also approved.
In closing the meeting on Saturday, May 6, Archbishop Barsamian expressed his gratitude to clergy and delegates for their commitment to the Armenian Church. He also thanked the officers of the assembly and the host committee for their hard work in organizing the weekend's events.
The 115th Diocesan Assembly was chaired by Diran Jebejian of St. Leon Church of Fair Lawn, NJ, with Alex Topakbashian of St. Sahag and St. Mesrob Church of Wynnewood, PA, serving as vice chair. Laurie Bejoian of St. James Church of Watertown, MA, served as the secretary.

Meet the Bus Driver
(47 of 121)
By luck of the draw, our bus was commanded by a most neurotic man. He insisted on passing cars by crossing over into oncoming traffic on straight aways, curves, and over hills. Later on our return, we discovered that he had several business arangements not listed on the tour. He ushered us off the bus and into two bars along the route to partake in a healthy serving of Mezcal, a liquor two shades stronger than tequila.
