Aww...my new favorite thing to cook. It goes great with any meat, although my husband keeps telling me it is not suppose to be a meal of it's own!
The green chilis give it a little something special!
You Need:
2 pkgs Frozen Sweet Corn
1 (8oz) pkg Cream cheese
1 small can chopped green chilis
1/2 C Milk (can add a little more if dry)
1/2 stick butter
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Get your cream cheese and butter at room temperature. Cook your corn according to the directions then drain off any water. (If you use the steam in bag kind, just pop in the microwave). Put hot corn, butter, and cream cheese in bowl and stir together. Add other ingredients. Place in baking pan and cook covered for 20 minutes at 350. Uncover and cook another 10 minutes.
Better than plain corn anyday! Of course anything with cream cheese is a hit :)

Mental Stimulation
Don't expect to get a lot of rest when you're together this week, because you two are about to get back in touch with everything that drew you together in the first place: a feeling of excitement when you're together, a sense of intellectual stimulation and the fun that comes with lots of chatting and tossing ideas around. If there's something regarding your relationship that you've been needing to discuss but haven't found a good moment for it, now would be a great time. You're communicating with each other better than usual because you're both listening up, tuning in and speaking clearly.
But this period needn't be all about serious matters or tackling previously unaired relationship issues; it should also be about having a great time together. Get out of the house together; in fact, a spontaneous little day trip or weekend away would be perfect. Don't forget to bring along a journal, or something to use when great ideas come to you and you just have to write them down! The current energy is the kind that could lead to some great, spontaneous brainstorming sessions where you both spark ideas off each other and come up with something amazing.

Cofounder @StartupGenome, Facilitator @StartupWeekend
I can't say enough amazing things about Shane. He's been a friend, a mentor, a peer and a catalyst for as long as I've known him. His ability to listen, incorporate, and lead has set the bar for all of my personal and professional relationships from here on out. Most importantly, he embodies the level of excellence that he inherently brings out in other people. He is an immediate asset to any organization he joins.
Working directly with Shane was one of the highlights of my tenure at Kohort. We worked together almost every day for over 18 months and in that time I was incredibly impressed with his passion, organizational skills and ability to execute under tight deadlines. In addition to being a key part of our leadership team, Shane managed our customer service and marketing capabilities and under his leadership we were able to resolve open customer service tickets in record time and construct and deploy marketing campaigns with complex targeting elements incredibly fast. Shane is also great at building relationships; in spite of the fact that he was one of a handful of remote employees I never felt removed from him and I was impressed with his ability to forge close and vital relationships to all the members of our development team. Lastly I have to say that Shane has the type of followership that can only come from being a very passionate and authentic person who puts his money where his mouth is and follows through on what he says. And I've met dozens of people from all areas of startupland and big companies who have met him through his time at Kohort or StartupWeekend who share this impression of him.
Guys like Shane come around only once in a blue moon. One look in his eyes and you can see a true determination to succeed and make an impact. Beyond that, Shane has the highest of moral values. I expect Shane Reiser to be core to building the next set of massive companies and organizations.
Shane worked for me in his second job out of college. He had previously been a manager at Target. In his new role, Shane showed tremendous adaptability quickly acclimating himself to the financial industry. In his role Shane showed strong leadership skills, excellent communication skills and proved to be a self starter. As a result of Shane's work we were successful in launching a very profitable new product.
I worked with Shane for just over a year on Startup Weekend's fledgling operations team. Shane was both a great person to work with and an essential part of Startup Weekend's early growth. He excels at injecting structure into chaos, managing a small team, and has an uncanny attention to detail without losing sight of the bigger picture. He's honest, productive, smart, and a natural people person, which more than once unlocked valuable opportunities for the organization.
It was a privilege working with Shane, and any company would be lucky to have him.
I speak for many many budding entrepreneurs in applauding Shane for having such a huge impact on the NYC startup scene. Because of his last event, my startup TRAVERSIVE is becoming a reality, I got some really great validation, and I was able to meet my future CTO. Honestly, Shane's a powerhouse for coming to NYC, crashing on someone's couch, and making NYC Startup Weekend happen. Way to go, dude!

Apparently he did the breaking up, and she's refusing to tell my mom the details, which obviously means she's going to tell me zero. I hope she's okay. But seriously. Bullet DODGED.
*for those not familiar with the story, my sister's now ex (yayyyyyyy!!!!) boyfriend is a known abuser who is 18 years her senior with two kids, one of whom is two years younger than my sister. He assaulted his wife, but it's okay because she cheated on him! and repeatedly abused his two children, to the point where the oldest, who is in jail, will not speak to his father because of the way he treated the youngest. He is creepy, a total misogynistic asshole, and the most legalistic and judgmental religious person I've ever met. He's made my mom cry by saying mean things to her (including "you don't love your daughters") on numerous occasions. But my sister is young and a virgin and super religious and won't listen to anyone about him.

Breast Cancer Resources
However, when UniWigs requested a product review, I was overjoyed at the opportunity to collaborate with them. Although their line is fun and offers many options for all women, I agreed to the review to spotlight an affordable option for women undergoing cancer treatment, as they offer wigs starting at under $100.00.
This product review is a very personal one for me, as my sister is a ten plus year cancer surviving warrior! Cancer is a vicious foe, causing the patient months of painful treatments. Adding insult to injury, breast cancer patients suffer not only the loss of their breasts, but their hair.
As my sister, Stacy described her experience, "First they removed my breasts and tissue, next, my hair started coming out in large clumps." For Stacy, it was the loss of both that took a toll on her femininity, while she valiantly battled the cancer that tried in vain and FAILED to take over her body.
Battling cancer requires much stamina, strength and hope. While we worry about our latest cut and color, for cancer patients, these choices are on their wish list (defeating the enemy being numero uno).
Here is my YouTube video about my UniWigs experience.
I am impressed with the look of the wig I selected, called the
LIZ. The synthetic hair is shiny, the caramel highlights look very natural and playful.
Putting the wig on couldn't have been easier, and the instructions took me through the process step by step. First, I wrapped my hair in the net provided, twisting my hair close to my head. Next, I put on my new wig, brushed and fluffed it to my desired look and just like that, I had an entirely new fun look!
My impressions on the UniWig LIZ Synthetic Wig:
The Good
1. Hair looks shiny
2. Hair looks pretty natural for a synthetic product
3. Highlights (not all wigs have them) look natural and well done
4. Easy to put on
5. Washable
6. The synthetic line is very affordable
Not So Much
I'm not sure if it was due to the fact that I was being gifted the wig or if this is their normal shipping time, but from the order date, it took almost 4 weeks for my wig to arrive.
The cut could have been a little better, but you can always take the wig to your hair stylist and have it styled your way.

Here's to all the brave women battling cancer around the world. Sending you love, positive thoughts and cancer fighting strength. YOU are a survivor, absorb that into your soul and battle on, warriors.

Santini Cycling Wear has been designing and making Giro d'Italia jerseys for over two decades; and alongside the signature pink Maglia Rosa and the jerseys for the leaders of the three other classifications, it is also launching a 'capsule collection that pays homage to the four most iconic stages of the 2017 Centenary edition'.
The jerseys are slim fit. The front and sides are made from a light, breathable fabric, 'Think Opaco', while stretch 'Cyber Rider' panels are used for the back for comfort and freedom of movement. The sleeves are in raw-cut 'Bodyfit' fabric. A silicon elastic gripper around the bottom hem stops the jersey riding up and helps it hug the body.
Coordinating shorts, cap, socks and gloves are also available for each of the jerseys in the same colours and graphics.
The Santini jersey dedicated to Sardinia, where the Giro starts, is in the colours of the Mediterranean Sea with a stylised traditional Sardinian lapwing interwoven with a swirling infinity symbol selected as the logo for the Giro d'Italia's Centenary, on the back. Just above the lapwing are the names of the towns hosting the finish-lines of the three Sardinian stages.
The 11th Bartali stage, will see the Giro pro cyclists tackle the Apennines starting from the Ponte a Ema in Forence, birthplace of the legendary Gino Bartali who won the Giro d'Italia three times and took the King of the Mountains jersey on no less than seven occasions. However, here the Santini jersey not only celebrates the latter's cycling achievements but also his resistance work in the Second World War. Here, references to the great Italian cyclist and his life abound: the Bartali name is emblazoned on the breast topped by mountains crafted out of letters as Gino Bartali secretly carried letters during the War.
The third jersey celebrates the Stelvio, which this year is also 'Cima Coppi' (Coppi Peak), a title bestowed each year on the highest peak in the race. Here, the Santini jersey includes the words W COPPI emblazoned on the front of the jersey, just as they appeared on the roads during the race.
The jersey dedicated to the Giro d'Italia's final stage, which takes the riders from the Monza Circuit to the Duomo in Milan, borrows the pinks and golds used for the Maglia Rosa. The Duomo itself is in profile on the breast just above the words 'Monza – Milano', which also crop up on the sleeves. The latter also sport the interlocking swirling zeroes logo chosen to represent the 'Amore infinito' slogan of this Centenary edition of the Giro d'Italia.
The Maglia Nera or Black Jersey completes the Santini Giro d'Italia capsule collection. This is a reference to the legendary Maglia Nera awarded between 1946 and 1951 to the lowest ranked cyclist in the classification and ironically was greatly coveted with competitors even going so far as to puncture their own tyres to win it!
The Santini 2017 Giro d'Italia capsule collection is available from leading cycling stores and the www.santinisms.it website.

YMCA West Kent was set up in June 1990 as an independent, locally run charity delivering services to meet locally identified needs for young people. The charity was established from Tunbridge Wells YMCA and Tonbridge YMCA.
Since the mid 1990s Ryder House, our supported housing project in Tunbridge Wells, has provided a much needed safe haven for homeless young people in 24 self contained flats. This project was developed by YMCA West Kent working in partnership with YMCA England [as developer and housing association] and Tunbridge Wells Borough Council who recognised the need for supported housing for young men and women aged 16-30.
A key part of the work in Ryder House is the Youth Inclusion programme with enables young people to plan and organise their own activities from a newsletter to an expedition to South Africa or Macedonia. Young People are asked: What do you want to do? The next question to young residents is: And how are YOU going to make that happen? The result is testament to the ingenuity of young people who have often been written off by family or friends or even themselves - as they plan, fund-raise, consult and run the most diverse range of activities and social action.
More recently, during 2010-11, we have been working with YMCA England and their contractors on a much needed refurbishment of those flats and to develop extra flats at Ryder House to cope with the high demand for supported youth housing in West Kent.
Early in 2011 Head Office moved out of Ryder House top floor to make way for the extension; and is now located at Tower House, Vale Rise, Tonbridge - the same location as our furniture warehouse.
In 2011, the head office moved to the Pagoda centre in Tunbridge Wells, which felt rather like 'coming home' as the YMCA originally developed the sports centre many years before, and a previous head office was located in St John's Road. The Pagoda centre itself was developed by Kent County Council as a Youth & Community Centre with 2 planned extensions [changing rooms & sports hall / badminton courts] which was given to us for such use on a 70 year lease.west kent
The first Horizon Project - offering Supported Vocational Training for young people aged 14 to 25 was set up in Tonbridge in 2003 , following a major fundraising campaign, to deliver carpentry and joinery training. The project was set up within a timber A frame building which was initially a community centre and youth club on the site of a boys club hut set up in the early 1900s by a local school master.
To add further diversity Kent County Council Adult Social Services bought places for their service users interested in using woodwork to develop life and social skills. Four other wonderful project centres were also established:
- Edenbridge in 2005 for painting and decorating skills,
- TN2 in Tunbridge Wells in 2008 for electrical and plumbing skills (now metalwork and plumbing),
- Cranbrook in 2009 for carpentry and joinery, and
- the first Horizon Project for Girls in Tunbridge Wells in 2010.
Horizon TN2 is located within our TN2 Community Centre on the Sherwood Estate in Tunbridge Wells. This Centre has literally risen from the ashes following a fires in the 1990s and a huge effort by the local community, statutory and voluntary partners with us to build a new Centre which opened in 2007. This now houses not only our Horizon Project but also a community cafe, library, meeting/activity rooms hosting many different local groups; as well as a very popular sports hall and changing rooms. During the summer of 2012, the projects at Cranbrook and the Girls Project were closed as they were no longer viable.
The first of our three furniture warehouses opened at Goods Station Road in Tunbridge Wells in the 1990s. Since then two more have opened in Tonbridge - on the High Street and at Cannon Lane and we are now located on Vale Rise.
In 2009 the Kent Waste Partnership awarded us a large grant to recognise the significant contributions to making Kent much more environmentally friendly.
The warehouses have expanded to include office furniture and white goods; and more recently in 2010 opened a UK wide service via eBay for Charity - providing amazing sales and intriguing stories. As well as being an essential community resource and giving opportunities for work experience, training and employment for residents, trainees and other members of our community, the warehouses also raise funds to sustain all our projects. Last but not least thanks to your generosity we are able to make a real difference when families escape domestic violence as we can often provide essential furniture when an empty house or flat is provided.
U-Turn is another supported training project, but this time aimed at disadvantaged and unemployed people aged 19 and above. We lead this dynamic network of U-Turn partners to deliver outreach adult learning. Set up in 2006, U-Turn works with many local partners across West Kent and Maidstone to provide training, confidence building, and personal skills development modules to help people back into work, further training or volunteering. We seek to offer modules that are free, at your pace, near your place. To further develop this exciting programme from 2011 we partner with the London Learning Consortium who deliver a wider range of adult learning, apprenticeships and other programmes funded mainly by the Skills Funding Agency.
In 2010 we were successful in securing a major grant from the Big Lottery Fund Young People's Fund 2 to set up a youth outreach project. In January 2011 the Vehicle for Change Project or V4C was launched, with a specially adapted mobile resource unit to reach out to isolated and disadvantaged young people across West Kent. V4C was conceived by Young People for Young People. V4C is delivered by young people [our youngest employees] and young people form the project steering group.
We have always tried to support local groups that empower people with learning disabilities - such as the FRED club and local District Partnership Groups [DPGs] for people with learning difficulties. Many of these links are informal by providing meeting venues, supported employment, providing senior staff as voluntary co-chairs and also helping DPGs employ local staff without having to set up their own HR function.
We were also pleased that 2012 saw the launch of YAP - our Young Apprenticeship Programme.

Courting a VC can be a lot like courting a romantic interest. A mutual friend might set you up, or maybe you're so persistent that you just make them notice you.
And then you set up a date to meet.
But, of course, the motivations for meeting with a potential investor versus meeting a potential significant other are very different.
Which is why, as with the other installments in this genre (See " The Sexiest Business Reporters Alive"), you may be relieved to learn that our criteria here was not "boobs."
We're more sophisticated than that. We considered hair, too.
And brains! There's nothing sexier than brains. And presence. And confidence, poise, and authority. And wittiness. And power. And chutzpah. And charm. And talent. And success. And style. And all those other qualities that tend to arouse the animal spirits.
But it can't hurt to have an investor who is also nice to look at. You might work harder not to disappoint.
Jalak invests in early stage tech companies in New York. She used to be a principal at New Venture Partners and she spearheaded the creation of NYCSeed, a fund for New York City startups.
According to AngelList, she invests $50,000 to $100,000 a year in a few startups.
She's invested in ticket search startup, SeatGeek, and she is an advisor to a social networking fashion startup, ShopNear.me
If you think this VC is sexy, you're not alone; he was recommended by two entrepreneurs, independent of each other.
Stylman has been active in the startup community for well over a decade. According to his AngelList profile, he is a Dad, a self-described "Stand-up philosopher" and he invests between $25,000 and $100,000 in five companies each year.
Some of his investments include Bitly, Groupme, and Kickstarter.
Campise was recently poached by Venrock from Greycroft Partners, so clearly she's a hot (and sexy) commodity.
She's a single mother, she paid her way through college, earning a bachelors degree from Yale, and she is a certified yoga instructor!
In addition to being sexy, she's generous too. How? She teaches free classes to entrepreneurs!
Based in Los Angeles, this model/actor/Demi Moore lover is actually a savvy tech investor.
He has investments in Foursquare and Skype, and in a handful of lesser known, but very promising, startups.
Kutcher is also an entrepreneur himself.
During his successful run on "That 70s Show," he co-founded a film and TV production company which has produced television shows such as "Punk'd" and "Beauty and the Geek."
Jani is a founding partner of the New York-focused venture fund, FirstMark Capital, and currently holds the title of Managing Director.
He is also a mentor for the TechStars accelerator program and some of his current investments include Luminosity, a website that helps users improve their cognitive skills, and shopping websites, Shopify and Lot 18.
Brodbeck was a founding team member of YouTube and, according to AngelList, she has invested between $15,000 to $25,000 in companies such as Enole and Texting.ly.
She lives in San Francisco and is about to launch her own company called TheIceBreak. It attempts to use technology to solve psychological and emotional problems in relationships.
The company logo has a heart in it, which means it probably has something to do with tackling the problems of lovers! Sexy.
Dixon is a very active member of the New York City tech startup scene.
After founding Hunch in 2007, a site that provides users with personalized recommendations from their friends, Dixon eventually started investing in other startups, including Kickstarter, Cardpool and Canvas Networks.
Lerer is the sexy CEO of the urban man's lifestyle newsletter, Thrillist.
He invests mostly in conjunction with his father, Ken Lerer (co-founder of The Huffington Post) through their startup venture fund, Lerer Media Ventures.
Since they started the fund in 2010, they have invested in startups including the social media site, Hot Potato (acquired by Facebook), email invitation service, Paperless Post, and tech gadget Q&A site, GDGT.
The pop-star singer who brought "sexy back" has also been bringing money to a handful of tech startups, including photo-sharing company, Stipple, and Miso Media, a music education technology company.
Perhaps Timberlake has become more active in the tech world having played the role of Napster-founder, Sean Parker, in The Social Network.
At the end of last month, Timberlake is reported to have taken a major role in the $35 million purchase of MySpace.
Justin, thanks for bringing sexy to the VC world.
At 26, Kushner is likely the youngest sexy VC. He is the founder of Thrive Capital and also Vostu, which has kind of become the "Zynga of Brazil."
He founded Vostu as a junior at Harvard and it now has some 35 million registered users, with more than 180 employees.
Granted, he had some pretty good connections: His dad is real estate mogul Charles Kushner, and his brother Jared owns the New York Observer and is married to Ivanka Trump.
Still, he's gotten awfully far thanks to his own initiative, and that's sexy.

Man Engine Cymru - TREDEGAR
Parc Bryn Bach has a long and proud mining history and has now been transformed into a beautiful country park. Here Man Engine will come face to face with Aneurin Bevan MP and the miners, colliers, quarrymen and ironworkers who clubbed together to form Tredegar Workingmens Medical Aid Society. Bevan used this as the blue print to 'Tredegarise' the UK when he introduced the National Health Service.
Throughout the day there will be adventure activities to enjoy throughout the park. Then in the afternoon join in the singing as we wake the man engine up and watch as he transforms to his towering 11.2metres and receives a gift of health from Nye himself. There will be plenty to keep you entertained with a fair ground, food village, stalls and activities.

Day 1: Tuesday 25/7/2000
Arrival at airport : 3.30p.m. We were warmly welcomed by two St. Lucian Scouts. They escorted us to our bus and took us to the Vieux Fort Comprehensive High School. After a brief stop, we were transported to the camp site. We were met by another St. Lucian scout, Alvin, who showed us our camp site.
No sooner had we put up a shaded tent, we were greeted with intermittent heavy showers. We managed however to erect all our tents except for one of our small tents.
Unable to cook due to lack of firewood or gas, we were forced to an alternative. Our contingent leader, Mr. Davis, was instrumental in securing for us Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Our intention to fence our campsite and to erect as much gadgets as possible was thwarted as we were not allowed to use any of the prepared bamboos until the following day, Wed. July 26. Being not able to do much, we retired to bed approximately 10.30p.m.
Day 2: Wednesday 26/7/2000
Day 2: Wednesday 26/7/2000After a good night's rest, everyone was up early, ready to take on the day's challenge. It was again heavy intermittent showers. Our three big tents were all drenched from the overnight showers. With still no gas or firewood, we were forced to get some hot water from a nearby stall to make some tea. It was day concentrated on installing a bamboo bridge across a drain and at the entrance to our campsite. Another major effort was the digging of a huge trench around our campsite to fight off the heavy flow of water into the site. Our gate, fencing and flagpole were also up. Our campsite was really looking up dispite the obvious water lagged ground around us. On advice of three officials, including Mr. Ron Richardson, we relocated to another area of the grounds which was more suitable for camping. This was done started at about 4.00p.m. and took us into the night.
During the day, we were visited by Mrs. Louise Williams.
Day 3: Thursday 27/7/2000
The morning saw us restoring our campsite to where we had left off, with the addition of a kitchen dresser, cup holder, cutlery holder and a wind breaker for our fire area. Our Jamaica sign, made from tape and colored by permanent black marker was installed at the top of our gate. Construction work began on our dining area. Bamboos were cut to length and holes dug. Again there was rain and the usual consistent strong wind.
Day 4: Friday 28/7/2000
Completion work done on camp table and chair. Gas cylinder received. We were served popsicles by our sub-camp leader. A more relaxing day for us who stayed in camp. The Piton Challenge was on, but none of us participated.
The Northern Ireland (Belfast) group visited, exhibiting their painted faces.
There was no night activity, except for a scout creating a bit of excitement blowing fire through a length of bamboo and creating an explosion at the other end.
Day 5: Saturday 297/7/2000
The entire contingent went to shop in the capital, Castries. The group also went to the beach. I was the only person remaining on site. I had four St. Lucian visitors. I took time out to sing and play the guitar for them.
Entertainment night came off with a bang. Each country doing their thing on stage. Jamaica did a good job singing folk songs and a medley of Djs. One of our scouts did an excellent job, doing one of Louise Bennett's Poems, "When Uriah Preach".
Day 6: Sunday 30/7/2000
Church Service : 10.00a.m. Opening Ceremony and March Pass: 4.00p.m. There was one gathering for Church Service which lasted just over an hour. After an address from the Governor General, the contingent leaders received plaques from her. A march pass followed thereafter. Each contingent was also visited by the Governor General and her entourage. A medal was presented to each contingent leader.
The day was observed ad friendship day where there was an exchange of visits by members of each contingent. Addresses were exchanged and friends made.
Day 7: Monday 31/7/2000
50 miles A Foot A Float : Three of our scouts participated. Bryan Peart, Ryan McKenzie and Keron Gordon. The journey took on the format. : Bus, walk, boat, walk, bus. Medal was received for completing this activity.
Trinidad Night Trinidad Contingent put on an excellent show and exhibition. Brochures were handed out and tasty dishes served. For entertainment, a very experienced belly dancer gave her all. The Trini Band also played.
Theft. Our returning to our site, it was discovered that one of our tents was entered by an intruder. One of our leaders, M.r Desmond Chambers had his bag ransacked and a bit of items were missing, including stuff bought to take back home. A very sad night. The police were summoned. Except for some clothes, nothing else was recovered.
Day 8: Tuesday 01/08/2000
A scheduled day for sports but this fell through.
Barbeque Night. The St. Lucian Scout Association treated the Jamboree to an evening of Barbeque, free to all.
Day 9: Wednesday 02/08/2000
Piton Challenge - A second chance. Another trip was arranged for those who missed the first run of this activity. No one from our contingent participated. The day went by leisurely. A football competition took place by the Vieux Fort Comprehensive, where the St. Lucian team emerged winners.
Day 10: Thursday 03/08/2000
Bike-a-thon. The scheduled bike-a-thon was a total disappointment. After enduring 2 1/2hrs, a truck turned up with some cycles which where in no way road worthy. This of course to a halt to this activity.
Hike to Falls. This event came off successfully with a large turnout from the different contingents participating..
Camp Fire and Closing Ceremony This got on the way at about 8.00p.m. Each contingent went on stage and did their thing. Jamaica sang a scout song and a folk song. This was well received by the audience.
Gifts from the different contingents were presented the Camp Chief after making a brief address to the camp. The night's proceedings came to a close by the singing of Kum ba yah and the holding of hands at around 11.00p.m.
Day 11: Friday 04/08/2000
We strike camp shortly after breakfast. We had all the tents cleaned and dried. All gadgets dismantled and bamboos packed away. The flag pole was the last to go. Shortly after 5.00p.m. we assembled by the flag. Each scout made a comment on his experience.
We took our things to H.Q. and move to the Vieux Fort Comprehensive School where we stayed the night.
Day 12: Saturday 05/08/2000
At 10.00a.m. we left for the airport. At 2.12p.m we moved to the plane and by 2.30p.m. we were airborne flying at 21,000ft. We arrived in Mobay at 4.40p.m. We soon set foot in Kingston at 5.03p.m. We were delayed however, as a luggage belonging to one of our scouts did not show up. On sorting out the procedures to receive it, we were finally out.
Dr. Lee, Mrs. Williams and a few parents were awaiting us at the airport. On confirming that all was OK, we headed to the Scout Head Quarters.
Exciting Things to do at a Jamboree

On Wednesday, with the company of my buddy josh I brewed a Robust Porter. This completed the last of 3 english style ales I've brewed since thanksgiving. English style ales are something I've become quite fond of lately, their low (in comparison) alcohol content, generally malty profile and unique yeast characteristic make them something I find quite enjoyable. Also, in a hop-centric american brewing community they present a unique challenge in capturing the palette of others. This is a rant I shall avoid for now.
This particular brew was fairly uneventful. My recirc setup worked beautifully, mash temps were maintained without fail and I feel the recipe shows great promise. Further, I got to use one of my favorite yeast strains, and the starter took off like a rocket, leading to a fermentation which shows signs of greatness, though I worry now, sitting an hour and a half away with family, that I may blow the airlock if things get heady.
Enough counting of chickens before they've hatched and onto the meat.
Prepared a 2.5 cup starter of wyeast neobritannia at ~noon. This showed signs of vigorous fermentation by 2 and ultimately was pitched at approximately midnight.
Mashed @ 1.25qt/lb and 153*F for 1 hour to (hopefully) leave the finishing gravity a bit higher than usual for a somewhat robust mouthfeel. Sparged to collect 6 gallons of preboil wort.
Boiled 60 minutes, no notable conditions, besides my poor math and a post boil gravity of 4.5 gallons, rather than the usual targeted 4 gallons. NOTE TO SELF: either, a) plan for 4.5 gallon batches, or b) collect ONLY 5.5 gallons preboil, regardless of what you think is right.
This volume overshoot led to a OG of 1.046, which is a touch low for a robust porter (I would have prefered 8 to 10 gravity points higher) however I think it should be close. and hey, this way I get to rebrew it.
Estimated O.G. 1.052
Estimated F.G. 1.013
Estimated ABV: 5.2%
IBU's 28.4
6lb Maris Otter 66%
1lb8oz Flaked Barley 17%
12oz Crystal 60l 8%
9oz Chocolate malt 6%
4oz Belges Kiln Coffee Malt 3%
1oz East Kent Goldings (6.7AA) @60 min, Irish moss & yeast nutrient @ 15min (I think I forgot these)
Fermented w/ Wyeast NB Neobritannia
Chilled to 72 post boil, allowed to reach 60*F before pitching, showed signs of fermentation within 8 hours of pitching.
I had initially intended for a much less complex grist, however the Northern English Brown I recently brewed had such a positive roast profile, I modified on brew day to add the kiln coffee malt.

A one-alarm kitchen fire Wednesday afternoon displaced two Menlo Park residents and caused $80,000 of damage to their apartment, fire officials said.
Firefighters arrived at the two-story, 16-unit apartment building on Oak Grove Avenue at about 3:05 p.m. and brought the blaze under control within seven minutes, Menlo Park Fire Protection District Chief Harold Schapelhouman said.
One of the residents said that she had been cooking bacon on the kitchen stovetop when a phone call distracted her. Fire Marshal Jon Johnston validated the cause and origin as "accidental, human error."
"Unattended cooking fires are the most common type of fire we see. It's easy to get distracted by a phone call, ball game, someone at the door, bathroom break or some other event," Schapelhouman said in a statement.
"We recommend you turn off the burner and move the pan or dish to another location while you are out of the kitchen," he said.
A resident was examined for smoke inhalation and possible burns but was not taken to a hospital, Schapelhouman said.
Fire officials estimated the structural damage at $50,000 and loss and damage to contents within the apartment at $30,000.

Wheels? Wheels are for boring people, we've seen the future and it's driving on tank treads!

From the very beginning of our relationship, Poseidon has been all about not being hemmed in by boxes. I was not yet a polytheist when I met Him – I was pagan, sure, and certainly of an animistic bent, but I was trying to be Wiccan (or at least Wiccanesque). I was reaching out for the God and Goddess, forms of the divine that continued to elude me. On that night, all I was, was broken. I remember reaching out both to the being that I refer to as Momma Earth, and to Grandmother Moon, pleading that I could just be finished. I wanted, as I've wanted a time or two before and since, to just be done. It's a curious, non-suicidal desire – there has never been an urge to do it myself. It's not about wanting to die, exactly (and maybe this is because I've always had a conviction – or fear – that death isn't The End, and troubles can't be expected to just stop simply because one in so longer living) so much as wanting to simply not be, any longer. This was the first, and most shattering, most encompassing, of mental breakdowns that I would have. This was the first time I let myself go completely – and I have to laugh at that phrase, because I did not "let myself go"; I was broken. I was done. I wanted to lie down and die, and maybe I would have, if it hadn't been for Him.
To this day, I can't say how and where our interaction took place. He was as physically real as I was, as solid, as present in the moment. So much so that, for months after I decided I really had gone crazy. Trying to figure out in which way the experience was "real" (was it a vision? Did I get pulled somewhere else? Was He truly embodied, or did He just use my memory to make it seem that way? Did He possess some hapless passerby?) distracted me for quite some time, until He decided that was enough. "If it changes you, it is real. Does it matter 'how' it's real in order for it to change you? Do you really need to know the details to that degree?" No, I suppose not. Whatever had happened between us granted me enough of a buffer between my hopelessness and myself, so that I could become comfortable with living, so that I could begin to accept that hope and a desire to be loved, and to love, was to be a part of my existence. There was some back and forth at the original exchange – I was not remotely interested in the Hellenic pantheon, though I knew enough about Poseidon to know His reputation with the ladies – willing or not. I was interested in Celtic mythology; maybe He could by Llyr? Manannan? I even suggested as much, still snug in His arms. He laughed, somehow making it sweet and gentle and not mocking, when all I'd known at this point was laughter-at-my-expense. "No," He insisted. So much for names not mattering.

Besides your fish tank, filter and Discus, water is a huge component in keeping healthy Discus.
Because water is such a critical part in the success you achieve with Discus, careful attention must be paid to water storage.
The State of Water
Water is always changing state. What I mean by this is, as water in nature can change form ice, to steam and then liquid, several changes happen to water on the way to your tank and even once in the tank!
Here is a quick list:
- Source Water: Full of minerals, chemicals and wide range of Ph values
- R.O. Filtered Water: Little to no minerals, chemicals but still a wide range of Ph.
- Stored Water with Aeration: Little to no minerals, chemicals and Ph can drop.
- Tank Water: Little to no minerals, some chemistry happening with fish waste and food creating higher Amonia and Nitrate levels, Ph can actually start to rise and some cases spike!
Where Can You Store Water?
Good question, and there are many answers, it really depends on how creative you can get and what your budget allows.
For example, I was lucky enough to find rather large acrylic container that was used in a tropical fish store for a central filter. What is really cool about this is it has built in chambers that allows me to use BIO balls and peat moss when I need to.
Assuming you can't find a local fish store that is looking to offload their equipment, here are few alternatives you can find in local classified ads and hardware store:
- Used Acrylic Tanks: Might be scratched, but who cares, it's just to hold your water!
- 55 Gallon Rubbermaid Trash Can: Seems a bit weird at first, but it actually works great! I used a Rubbermaid trash can for many years before I found the acrylic sump I use now.
- Poly Tank: Now you are getting a bit on the higher end of things, they sure do look nice though. Best thing about them is the volume of water you can store.
Aeration Is Key
A simple air stone with a strong air pump can work wonders in stabilizing water before introducing it into your tanks.
Here is what an air stone can do:
- Reduce Chlorine: Some variations of the Chlorine chemical get added to drinking water to reduce or eliminate bacterial growth. The aeration of the water helps release chemicals in to the air thus removing them from the water. Under heavy aeration with multiple air stones you can smell it in the air when you walk into your fish room!
- Lower Ph: Yep, the Ph get's a bit lower and in some instances a lot lower, depending on your water chemistry. This alone can save you money on Ph buffer chemicals and your fish will thank you, well not literally.
- Oxygen!: Your Discus will breath oxygen rich water thanks to the extra step of aeration. Did you know athletes train in oxygen rich environments to enhance performance, think what it will do to your Discus growth!
Heat And Treat
The final step for your water container is your heater. Dropping in a submersible heater will help keep the water at a constant temperature. Now when you do water changes, your Discus won't get the chills or be scalded. Matching the water temperature in their current tank will help reduce incidents of shock to your Discus.
You may also want to treat your water by throwing in a submersible bag containing peat moss. If you are breeding or maybe have a wild Discus collection, treating the water with peat will get the water a little closer to what you would probably find in the Amazon. Peat add tannins and acidifies water a bit giving it a tea colored look. It does not harm your Discus and in fact some Discus thrive in peat treated water.
One last thing, throw in a small powerhead in the water container to help circulate water around. This way the heated water and peat can swirl around versus just sitting at the bottom. Nothing fancy, just a powerhead with enough push to cycle the water around and keep things constant.
Questions For You?
Do you use a water container in your Discus setup?
What equipment did you use for your water container setup?
Any ideas you could share with us?

China's installed wind capacity could treble by 2025.
A new report suggests installations could rise from 115.6GW in 2014 to 347.2GW in the next 10 years.
The country's wind power generation is expected to be dominated by onshore capacity, accounting for 334.7GW, it adds.
Global wind installations are also growing and are expected to reach 962.6GW during the same period.
Harshavardhan Reddy Nagatham, GlobalData's Analyst said: "There will be sustainable future growth in India, Australia, Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Thailand and Taiwan as APAC [Asia Pacific] wind installations are forecast to increase from 148.2 GW in 2014 to 437.8 GW by 2025, accounting for approximately 45.5% of the global total.
"Wind installations will also gain momentum in South and Central America, with countries including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Mexico adding up to 45.6 GW during the forecast period."
The Middle East and Africa region, which is currently at a "nascent stage" of wind market development, is expected to be the other significant contributor to capacity additions.

Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi has said that intolerance and unemployment are the key issues that pose a serious challenge to India's national security and development.
Mr. Gandhi, who is in the U.S. on a two-week-long tour, held a series of meetings, including a roundtable with eminent Indian/South Asia experts hosted by the Centre for American Progress (CAP), a Democratic-leaning think tank.Prominent among the attendees were CAP head Neera Tandon, the former U.S. Ambassador to India, Richard Verma, and Hillary Clinton's top campaign advisor John Podesta.
Lisa Curtis, who heads the South Asia division at the National Security Council of the White House held discussions with Mr. Gandhi over a breakfast meeting during which the Trump administration official sought his views on the U.S.-India relationship and the recently announced Afghanistan and South Asia policy of U.S. President Donald Trump, according to the participants of the meeting.U.S. Chamber of Commerce president and CEO Thomas J. Donohue met Mr. Gandhi and other senior Congress leaders at an event hosted by U.S. India Business Council (USIBC).
During the meeting, Mr. Gandhi expressed concern over the inability of the government to create jobs in India, which he felt was leading the country towards a dangerous situation.Mr. Gandhi also had an off-the-record interaction with the editorial board of The Washington Post, wherein he shared his anguish over the rising intolerance globally, but in particularly in India.

text: The price of the Australian dollar continued to rise and reached the upper limit of the local rising channel. Among the reasons for the increase in demand for the national currency of Australia we should note speculations on possible measures to stimulate the economy of China, which is the main trading partner of Australia, as well as statement by the head of the Reserve Bank of Australia Glenn Stevens. In his speech, Mr. Stevens noted the growth of investments and credits in the mining sector, the stability of the inflation rate and the fact that the reduction of the Australian dollar contributes to the growth of the economy. Despite this, the RBA policy remains quite soft and is aimed at reducing of price of the Australian dollar. We maintain a long-term negative outlook for the Australian dollar due to the risks of slowing down industry of China and the RBA monetary policy. In the medium term, the growth of price of the pair can continue.

What is a malocclusion, exactly? It's a fancy term for a "bad bite," or a misalignment in your teeth and jaw. Bad bites can be formed by oral accidents, genetics, unhealthy habits, poor oral hygiene, or any combination of these factors. They tend to be rather common. Here's a list of types of malocclusions:
Malocclusions of the incisors:
-Misplaced midline: when upper and lower incisors don't align properly.
-Underbite: When lower incisors protrudes past upper incisors; occasionally called "bulldog teeth."
-Overbite: When upper incisors overhang lower incisors; sometimes referred to as "buck teeth."
-Open Bite: Any other variation in which upper and lower incisors don't touch when biting down.
Other forms of malocclusions:
-Crossbite: When the lower jawbone juts out past the upper jawbone.
-Transposition Malocclusion: When teeth show up above the gumline in the wrong places.
-Rotation Malocclusion: When teeth slowly shift out of correct alignment.
-Spacing Malocclusions: When there are asymmetrical gaps, overcrowded teeth, or large gaps between the teeth.
Do you think you may have a malocclusion? Talk to Dr. Frank Andolino. He will be able to correctly diagnose what type of malocclusion you might have and help you evaluate your options for treatment. Just call Andolino in New York, NY, at (212) 753 - 5575. We look forward to helping you soon!

A New Students' Union Eligibility Policy?/
Why some have concerns over academic expectations
With the Students' Union President and Vice President Academic elections just around the corner, many have been talking about just what it entails to work for The U in any capacity and who can apply in the first place.
As it stands currently, the only requirements are to be in good academic standing – that is have an average of 60% or higher, not have any major infractions, and be able conduct a good interview. However, at the last council meeting, Sunday, January 14, a new Eligibility Policy was introduced to be discussed and debated upon.
The proposed policy states that "all students applying for Union positions, elected or hired, to be in accordance with the following:
'Have no outstanding academic or non-academic disciplinary sanctions, including but not limited to Academic Probation, outstanding disciplinary fines, or non-academic probations.'
'For all Union positions, excluding First Year Representative Council position, Executive Board, and Chair of Council hold an overall academic average of 70% or higher from their most recent student grade report at the time of application.'
'For the Executive Board and the Chair of Council applicants that must have a 75% or higher'.
It must be said that these numbers, the 70% average for sub-executive positions, and 75% for executive/Chair positions, are arbitrary. The entire concept behind this policy is that the mandatory average for working for the Union be higher than a 60% - which is what is currently needed to stay in 'good academic standing' at StFX. As was emphasized at the council meeting, it could be 65% or it could be 95% - that was what the council members were there to discuss.
However, the reactions to the proposed policy were quite varied. Some, including Students' Union President Annie Sirois, felt that the policy was essential to success within the Union. Sirois stated, "First and foremost we are students, and then leaders on campus, and the Union needs to prioritize what is in the best interest of students, and that's not by providing positions to students who need support academically, [and add] another thing to their plate".
In discussing the proposed policy with others afterwards, some council members admitted to getting too caught up in the numbers themselves. This was evident throughout discussion as tensions rose while it was debated what the difference between a '60's student' and a '70's student' truly is.
Others, like VP External Zak Chatur, were adamantly against the policy as a whole. Chatur questioned whether exams and test scores truly indicate job performance ability, feels that the entire policy is incredibly paternalistic, and declared that he will never support a policy that puts barriers up for students.
Board of Governors Student Representative, Alex Corrigan, on the other hand, was against the policy but for a much different reason. While Chatur felt that students, provided with the right information about the positions, should be able to make decisions for themselves, Corrigan felt that the policy itself was inequitable. He stressed that there are many different reasons as to why a student may not necessarily succeed academically, such as dealing with any type of traumatic experience. He also said that should someone already have worked for The U in any capacity, and proven themselves to be competent employees, then they should not be subject to the grade requirement, almost like being "grandfathered". Corrigan passionately maintained that arbitrary exclusion, which he sees this policy to be, is simply quieting the voices of the student body.
VP Academic Patrick Panet-Raymond agreed with Corrigan, chiming in that grades vary for everyone, and that a high average requirement is building barriers instead of creating opportunities.
I feel that many fundamental points were brought up within the Council meeting. In a sense I agree with Sirois in that the Students' Union needs to be able to have a strong foundation in their academic studies so as to dedicate as much time as needed to their role. However, I understand the argument that a person's worth and work ethic are in no way solely depicted by their GPA. Unfortunately, we live in a world where we need to externally verify and quantify our success with a numerical value and so our worth comes down to a 60% average to stay at StFX, a 75% average to be in a BA Honours program, and so on and so forth. It makes sense that the Students' Union wants to ensure that they have qualified and motivated individuals applying for their positions, but in raising the bar too high, there is a danger of falling closer to the elitism they so wish to avoid.
