Singapore in a Nutshell!/
Hi guys, I've realized that I've been writing about amazing cities I'm visiting but never about the wonderful city I'm living in! In the past months many of you asked me tips and suggestions on what to do in Singapore and I have always reached out to you individually. Keep on doing it, I love it! And tell me your next holiday destination so that I can help you in planning the itinerary 🙂
At the same time, for those of you who haven't visited Singapore yet, I've decided to start a new travel category fully dedicated to this city. You can find it in the Travel section!
In this post I'm gonna give you a list of districts and must-DOs if you're coming to Singapore for the first time. In the next weeks I will dedicate one post to each area in order to be very specific on what to do, where to eat, what not to miss etc
Here the best neighborhoods to visit walking and get lost in their vivid alleys:
- CHINATOWN: the main markets and shops are around Temple St. and Pagoda St. where you can find a lively atmosphere. A bit touristic though, reason why if you have to stop eating somewhere I would suggest to walk towards Keong Saik Road, Duxton Road or Telok Ayer that have plenty of nice bars and restaurants.
- LITTLE INDIA: Serangoon Road, Little India Arcade and Mustafa (a HUGE shopping mall that sells literally everything and once you're there you completely lose your orientation. But it's worth having a look!!). If you like Indian food you can stop at Lagnaa in 6 Upper Dickson Road, where you are supposed to eat barefoot and sitting on the floor (on a pillow of course eheh). The adventurous ones can give it a try!
- MARINA BAY & GARDENS by THE BAY: Next to the famous Marina Bay Sands hotel there is the amazing and green area of Gardens by the Bay, a 101 hectares garden. You can't miss the massive Supertrees here. These tree-shaped vertical gardens are between nine to 16 storeys tall. You can also walk on the suspended walkway between two of them. In the evening, catch the sky show of choreographed lights and sounds or watch the picturesque view of the city skyline. In the Gardens you have also the chance to visit the Flower Dome that replicates the cool-dry climate of Mediterranean regions and houses a collection of plants from deserts all over the world.
- BOTANIC GARDENS: Singapore's oldest garden is an UNESCO Heritage Site is a great venue for jogging, dining, relaxing or organizing pic-nics. It includes the National Orchid Garden, the Swan Lake, the Heritage Museum and the Symphony Stage where they often host outdoors concerts! Click here so see the upcoming events.
- DEMPSEY HILL: my favorite area for a Sunday brunch! It's a green, hilly, hipster and not so touristic area in Singapore. You can find good restaurants (dedicated post to follow 🙂 ), interior design shops, antique furniture shops, art galleries and much more. You can also take a stroll along any of its walking trails (formerly this area was a nutmeg plantation, then re-purposed as the military camp until 2007 when it was transformed in a tranquil hideaway where you can dine, relax, shop and enjoy a nice walk).
ORCHARD RD & SOMERSET RD: for those of you who want to do shopping, this is the main area, full of shops and malls. The most famous is ION.
Hope you will enjoy and don't forget to subscribe to my blog to receive the upcoming articles!

Label (computer science)
A label in a programming language is a sequence of characters that identifies a location within source code. In most languages labels take the form of an identifier, often followed by a punctuation character (e.g., a colon). In many high level programming languages the purpose of a label is to act as the destination of a
GOTO statement.[1][2] In assembly language labels can be used anywhere an address can (for example, as the operand of a
JMP or
MOV instruction).[3] Also in Pascal and its derived variations. Some languages, such as Fortran and BASIC, support numeric labels.[4] Labels are also used to identify an entry point into a compiled sequence of statements (e.g., during debugging).
In C a label identifies a statement in the code. A single statement can have multiple labels. Labels just indicate locations in the code and reaching a label has no effect on the actual execution.
Function labels[edit]
Function labels consist of an identifier, followed by a colon. Each such label points to a statement in a function and its identifier must be unique within that function. Other functions may use the same name for a label. Label identifiers occupy their own namespace – one can have variables and functions with the same name as a label.
void foo(int number)
if (number < 0)
goto error;
fprintf(stderr, "Invalid number!\n");
Here error is the label. The statement goto can be used to jump to a labeled statement in the code. After a
goto, program execution continues with the statement after the label.
Switch labels[edit]
Two types of labels can be put in a switch statement. A case label consists of the keyword
case, followed by an expression that evaluates to integer constant. A default label consists of the keyword
default. Case labels are used to associate an integer value with a statement in the code. When a switch statement is reached, program execution continues with the statement after the case label with value that matches the value in the parentheses of the switch. If there is no such case label, but there is a default label, program execution continues with the statement after the default label. If there is no default label, program execution continues after the switch.
switch (die)
case 1:
case 3:
case 5:
case 2:
case 4:
case 6:
Within a single switch statement, the integer constant associated with each case label must be unique. There may or may not be a default statement. There is no restriction on the order of the labels within a switch. The requirement that case labels values evaluate to integer constants gives the compiler more room for optimizations.
top: //Label the outermost for-loop.
for (var i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < 4; j++) {
if (j === 3 && i === 2) {
alert("i=" + i + ", j=" + j); //i=2, j=3
break top;
alert("i=" + i + ", j=" + j); //i=2, j=3

Middle Schooler Rewarded For Soldier Thank-Yous/
By Andrew Wroblewski
"Thank you."
Two simple words – a saying that is sometimes taken for granted; sometimes forgotten. But sometimes, as was the case for 12-year-old William Connor of Northport, the two words can be inspiring.
"[One day] my dad said 'Thank you' to two soldiers we passed, and when I asked him why he told me a story where somebody thanked my Grandpa Connor when he was walking down the street in his uniform," Connor, a 6th grader at Northport Middle School, said. "My grandpa remembered that his whole life so my dad always thanks soldiers he sees. And I thought that every soldier should be thanked, so I decided to do it."
The "it" Connor refers to is "Thank A Soldier" – a movement he founded in 2011, which he's utilized to send more than 1,000 thank-you postcards to United States servicemen and servicewomen. Connor, who designed the postcard with his sister, can typically be found at local events – such as Northport's Memorial Day Parade – where he collects the messages and then mails them out through Operation Gratitude and local endeavors.
For his work, earlier this month, Connor was named one of 11 New York State winners of the annual Kohls Cares Scholarship Program. Connor will received a $1,000 scholarship, to put toward his college education.
In fact, though he's still in middle school, Connor is already planning his college education; he wants to attend The Culinary Institute of America.
"I want to be a chef. Maybe I'll even cook for the army and give the soldiers really good gourmet meals," he said.
In the meantime, however, the Northport middle schooler will continue operating Thank A Soldier as he attempts to fulfill his ultimate goal of thanking all of the 1.6 million servicemen and servicewomen in the United States Military.
To join Connor in his efforts, visit the Thank A Soldier Facebook page (http://on.fb.me/1cYH3I5), leave a message and soon it'll be applied to the back of a postcard and sent off.

|Recent Weeks Have Left Us Wanting
Written by BarneyLW on Monday, 20th Oct 2014 14:26
One major criticism I had from the Newcastle game a fortnight ago-and this was the first real complaint I had all season-was that the team lacked a bit of ambition. The way we played that day, in comparison to the visitors, it seemed like with the slightest upping of the gears and the 3 points would've almost certainly gone to the Swans.
Well those concerns were answered in the game yesterday. Playing Stoke was never going to be easy, especially away from home, but ambition was not lacking in the opening half. The common argument used to be that in this encounter, Swansea would always dominate the possession battle, but be found wanting in the physical challenge. These days, it is a bit more difficult to read, with the Mark Hughes era focusing more on attractive football. Or at least more attractive than the Tony Pulis days at the Britannia. However, the visitors still showed that they can still out-pass the best of them on their day; two great moves saw Gylfi Sigurdsson and Ki Sung Yeung-who both had impressive displays for their respective countries on international break- pass up great chances to open the scoring. While Sigurdsson opted to try and round Potters' keeper Asmir Begovic, as opposed to placing it, Ki saw his shot fire straight into the big Bosnian between the sticks.
With a lot of pre-digested hype about the physicality and route one play that is associated with Stoke, a lot of the critics may have been surprised to see the opening goal come from a dangerous set piece to the away side. The first corner of the game saw notoriously physical centre back Ryan Shawcross bring down the big Ivorian, Wilfried Bony in the area, penalty given. There seemed to be a state of shock from the home fans, but replays showed clear and pointless contact, after what seemed to be a warning to the Stoke captain from referee Michael Oliver- 'I'm watching you, be careful.' Stupid as it was, Bony was not one to pass up the opportunity; cool as ever from the spot kick. 1-0 Swansea, slotted calmly to the keeper's left.
It didn't take long for further controversy. A darting run from Victor Moses, who got away from Angel Rangel, then seemed to take a tumble in the area. No hesitation, Michael Oliver pointed to the spot again, this time a penalty to the home team. This one seemed slightly more bewildering, as there seemed to be minimal, if any contact. Replays showed a blatant dive. Take nothing away from Charlie Adam's penalty, the Scotsman firing right into the goalkeeper's right hand corner. Despite picking the right way, there was nothing Fabianski could do.
The second half started fairly innocuously, with frankly very few chances. Although, there was a sense that the home side had come into the game a little, and showed the upping of the gears that Garry Monk's side couldn't seem to do against Newcastle. Subs Montero and Gomis on the hour did have an impact, with Routledge shifting to the right and Sigurdsson moving slightly further back to accommodate the two strikers, there started to be a sense in the ground that the next goal would win it.
But, to the dismay of the travelling fans, the goal went to Stoke. The usual self-creation of problems among the back four led to a loose pass being picked up in the Swansea half, before some neat play to the wing and a ball in met by Jonathan Walters, the sub firing a header into the bottom corner. Whether he thought it was going wide, or simply didn't feel he had the capacity to reach it, Fabianski made no effort to dive for the header until it was too late.
The post match reaction to the game was fairly predictable. Despite a late surge, the away side could not find an equaliser, and were left to half chances in all honesty, nothing really testing Begovic. But the defeat was met with ferocity from Garry Monk, calling the penalty they conceded abysmal and branded Victor Moses a 'cheat'. Undoubtedly a dive it was, however on this one I can't help feeling Mark Hughes had a valid point, suggesting that managers nowadays sometimes have to bite their tongue, which will come with experience. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but the outspoken Swans' boss will need to be careful to avoid being reprimanded by the F.A, an organisation that need to excuse to start handing out fines and touchline bans.
As for the team, not a terrible performance. A good display at a tough ground, obvious disappointment at the result, but now the focus must go to Leicester at home next Saturday.

this morning we took a morning train from salzburg to vienna (don't worry, salzburg photos coming soon). can i just say.. that austria is so gorgeous. 10 minutes into the train ride, i looked over to the right and saw a huge lake with mountains reflected in it. i tried to get up and snap a photo, but the train was moving too fast, so i just looked for a photo online that would try to recreate it. this isn't very close to how beautiful it was.
there are so many green hills, so much blue sky, and not enough time for me to stay and just soak it all in. we're in vienna for the next two nights before taking an overnight train to berlin, but i'm already determined to come back.
i love you, austria.

Poised in the delicate space between concert and theatre, Permission to Speak explores the most universal of relationships - that of parent and child - as it exists and evolves through a lifetime.
This first-time collaboration between Tamara Saulwick and composer Kate Neal pairs contemporary performance with musical composition to construct a revealing portrait of that which is often left unspoken.
Musings, diatribes, recollections and hindsight find voice as four performer–vocalists are fused in choral counterpoint with an assembly of pre-recorded voices, offering multiple perspectives on the contemporary experience of family. What would we say to those who brought us into the world? What will we say to those we leave behind?
Built from interviews with people of all ages, Permission to Speak interweaves the complexities, parallels and paradoxes of this dynamic relationship – manifested through the speaking, sounding, singing human voice.
'The permission which is granted in this show is also a kind of celebration; and, while there's much that is sad or poignant in the remembered stories, the overall feeling is of airiness and giddy relief.' Andrew Fuhrmann, Realtime
'This piece is a soft joy, a catharsis, an honest act of connecting.' ★★★★ 1/2 Cera Maree Brown, Theatre People
'Sonic high-wire artists without a net, they caught each other every time.' David Collins, Australia Arts Review
Concept/direction/text/libretto Tamara Saulwick
Composition/libretto Kate Neal

DJs on STrike a turntablelab.com PICK!
THis week the almost completly sold out DJs on Strike 12" is a pick on
Grab one from turntable lab before they are all gone...!! ?? they also wrote this review: "It happens to the best of em. Woodman and K.Lim, one time downtempo-loving Lab interns, got seduced by the Roc and his big money gigs, trading in their MoWax and fake Bape (looking at you Woodman) for AV8s and bpm stickers. These days, if you want to follow in their footsteps, you'll need to be able to toss not only the commercial set, but the tightly mixed rock set. Here's where this record comes in. No more sloppy switches to get "Teen Spirit" into the mix. The DJs On Strike have added beats, done some club friendly re-editing, and most importantly added mixable intros and outtros. The clueless wall streeters won't know what the fuck hit em. This is awesome. The best part is that the original rock feel is kept intact, this ain't no trance cinema bitch! "Smells Like(1)" is the easy pick, but I'm predicting the "Lithium" remix(2) is the one that's gonna smell it up." and there are sound clips./.....

History of the hamburger in the United States
This article needs additional citations for verification. (October 2013) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
A hamburger (or burger) is a sandwich that consists of a cooked ground meat patty, usually beef, placed between halves of a sliced bun or between slices of bread or toast. Hamburgers are often served with various condiments, such as mustard, mayonnaise, and ketchup, and other options including lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and cheese.[1]
The Texas historian Frank X. Tolbert attributes the invention of the hamburger to Fletcher Davis of Athens, Texas. Davis is believed to have sold hamburgers at his café at 115 Tyler Street in Athens, Texas, in the late 1880s, before bringing them to the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair.[2][3]
- Menches Brothers 1885
Residents of Hamburg, New York, which was named after Hamburg, Germany, attribute the hamburger to Ohioans Frank Menches and Charles Menches. According to legend, the Menches brothers were vendors at the 1885 Erie County Fair (then called the Buffalo Fair) when they ran out of sausage for sandwiches and used beef instead. They named the resulting sandwich after the location of the fair.[4][5] However, Frank Menches's obituary in The New York Times stated, instead, that these events took place at the 1892 Summit County Fair in Akron, Ohio.[6]
- Charlie Nagreen 1885
The Seymour Community Historical Society of Seymour, Wisconsin, credits Charlie Nagreen, now known as "Hamburger Charlie", with the invention of the hamburger. Nagreen was 15 when he reportedly made sandwiches out of meatballs that he was selling at the 1885 Seymour Fair (now the Outagamie County Fair) to make it easier for customers to eat while walking. The Historical Society explains that Nagreen named the hamburger after the Hamburg steak, with which local German immigrants were familiar.[7][8]
- Oscar Bilby 1891
There is good evidence that the first hamburger served on a bun was made by Oscar Bilby of Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1891.[9][10][11]
In April 1995, the Dallas Morning News reported on an Oklahoma author who said that Tulsa beat out Texas as the birthplace of the delicacy. Michael Wallis, author of "Route 66, The Mother Road", was quoted by the newspaper as saying that he had discovered Tulsa's place in culinary history, which he made while researching the state's tastiest hamburgers. He started at the restaurant that has been voted Tulsa's best burger more often than any other restaurant since 1933, Weber's Root Beer Stand. Wallis' research revealed that Oscar Weber Bilby was the first person to serve a real hamburger when, on July 4, 1891, ground beef was served on his wife's homemade buns at a Fourth of July party on his farm, just west of present-day Tulsa. Until then, ground beef had been served in Athens, Texas, on simple slices of bread, known then and presently as a "patty melt". According to the Tulsa-based author, the bun is essential. Therefore, in 1995, Governor Frank Keating cited Athens, Texas' serving of ground beef between two slices of bread as a minor accomplishment. The governor's April 1995 proclamation also cites the first true hamburger on the bun, after meticulous research, was created and consumed in Tulsa in 1891. The Governor's Proclamation cites April 13, 1995, in Tulsa as "The Real Birthplace of the Hamburger." [12]
- Louis' Lunch 1895
The Library of Congress credits Danish immigrant Louis Lassen of Louis' Lunch, a small lunch wagon in New Haven, Connecticut, with selling the first hamburger and steak sandwich in the U.S. in 1895.[13][14]
Hamburger bun[edit]
The hamburger bun was invented in 1916 by a fry cook named Walter Anderson, who co-founded White Castle in 1921.[15]
U.S. hamburger restaurants[edit]
The following restaurants have either played a part in the creation of the hamburger sandwich, developed a unique cooking method, or were the first to sell them nationwide:
- Louis' Lunch 1895, New Haven, Connecticut.[16] Louis' Lunch has been selling steak and hamburger sandwiches since 1895, when Louis Lassen opened his lunch wagon.[17] This small establishment, which advertises itself as the oldest hamburger restaurant in the U.S., is credited by some with having invented the classic American hamburger when Louis sandwiched a ground steak patty between two pieces of white toast for a busy office worker in 1900.[18] Louis' Lunch flame broils the hamburgers in the original 1898 Bridge & Beach vertical cast iron gas stoves using locally developed steel wire gridirons to hold the hamburgers in place during cooking (U.S. Patent #2,148,879).[19] In 1974, The New York Times published a story about Louis' Lunch claiming to have invented the hamburger. The U.S. Library of Congress' American Folklife Center Local Legacies Project website credits Louis' Lunch as the maker of America's first hamburger and steak sandwich. The hamburger is still served today on two pieces of toast and not a bun.[13]
- Dyer's Burgers, 1912, Memphis, Tennessee, deep-fried burgers using a cast-iron skillet.
- White Castle, 1921, Wichita, Kansas. Following the war, hamburgers became unpopular until the White Castle restaurant chain marketed and sold large numbers of small two-and-a-half-inch square hamburgers. They started to punch five holes in each patty, which helps them cook evenly and eliminates the need to flip the burgers. Their burger first sold for five cents. White Castle holds a U.S trademark on the word "slyders." The White Castle building was modeled after the water tower building in Chicago, with the turrets and fortress-like walls. White Castle was the first to sell their hamburgers in grocery stores and vending machines. They also created the industrial-strength spatula, and were the first to mass-produce the paper hat. Today, there are more than 400 White Castle restaurants around the country, selling over 550 million hamburgers per year.[citation needed]
- The Rite Spot, circa 1925, Pasadena, California. Lionel Sternberger claims to have invented the cheeseburger.[20]
- Kaelin's Restaurant, 1934, Louisville, Kentucky. This Kentucky restaurant claims to have invented the cheeseburger in 1934.[21]
- Humpty Dumpty Drive-In, 1935, Denver, Colorado. A trademark for the name cheeseburger was awarded to Louis Ballast of the Humpty Dumpty Drive-In in 1935.[22]
- Jack's Lunch, 1930s, Middletown, Connecticut. The steamed cheeseburger is believed to have been invented at this restaurant operated by Jack Fitzgerald.
In the United States, hamburgers may be classified into one of two primary categories: fast food hamburgers or individually prepared burgers made in homes and restaurants. The latter are traditionally prepared "with everything" (or "all the way", "deluxe", "the works", "dragged through the garden", or, in some regions, "all dressed"), which includes lettuce, tomato, onion, and sliced pickles (or pickle relish). Cheese (usually processed cheese slices, but often Cheddar, Swiss, pepper jack, or blue cheese), either melted on the meat patty or crumbled on top, is a popular option. In the Carolinas a time-honored popular style for hamburgers (and hot dogs) served in diners and homes (but not fast food chains) is "all the way" meaning mustard, slaw, chili and onions.
Condiments may be added to the hamburger or offered separately on the side. The three most common condiments are mustard, mayonnaise, and ketchup. However, salad dressings and barbecue sauce are also popular. McDonald's uses their own "Big Mac sauce" on their signature Big Mac hamburger.
Other popular toppings include bacon, avocado or guacamole, sliced sautéed mushrooms, sliced green olives, sliced cheese sauce and/or chili (usually without beans). Heinz 57 sauce is popular among burger enthusiasts. Somewhat less common toppings include fried egg, scrambled egg, feta cheese, salsa, pineapple, Jalapeños and other varieties of chile peppers, anchovies, slices of ham or bologna, pastrami, or teriyaki-seasoned beef, tartar sauce, french fries, onion rings, or potato chips.
Standard toppings on hamburgers may vary depending upon location, particularly at restaurants that are not national or regional franchises. A "Texas burger" uses mustard as the only sauce, and comes with or without vegetables, jalapeno slices, and cheese.[citation needed] In New Mexico and parts of the Southwest, green chile burgers are very common. In the Upper Midwest, particularly Wisconsin, burgers are often made with a buttered bun, butter as one of the ingredients of the patty, or with a pat of butter on top of the burger patty. This is called a "Butter Burger". In the Carolinas, a Carolina-style hamburger "with everything" may be served with cheese, chili, onions, mustard, and coleslaw. National hamburger chain Wendy's sells a "Carolina Classic" burger with these toppings in these areas. In Hawaii, hamburgers are often topped with teriyaki sauce, derived from the Japanese-American culture, and locally grown pineapple. The Waffle House claims on its menus and website to offer 70,778,880 different ways of serving a hamburger. In areas of the Midwest and East Coast, a hamburger served with lettuce, tomato, and onion is called a "California burger". This usage is sufficiently widespread to appear on the menus of Dairy Queen. In the Western U.S., a "California" burger often denotes a cheeseburger with guacamole and bacon added. Pastrami burgers are particularly popular in Salt Lake City, Utah.[23]
Hamburgers may be described by their combined uncooked weight. A single, uncooked burger weighing a nominal four ounces or 113.5 grams is a "quarter pounder". Instead of a "double hamburger", one might encounter a third- or half-pounder, weighing eight ounces or 227 grams. Burger patties are nearly always specified in fractions of a pound.
In the continental U.S., it is uncommon to hear of a chicken patty or breast on a hamburger bun referred to as a "chicken burger". This is almost always called a "chicken sandwich," except for rare exceptions, such as with the Red Robin chain of restaurants. In Canada, "chicken burgers" generally refer to patties and, when using a chicken breast, to "chicken sandwiches". In Hawaii, small (usually marinated) pieces of chicken piled on a bun are referred to as a teriyaki chicken burger. This is similar to what is found in Japan,[24] but is a local variation.
- A hamburger with two patties is called a "double decker" or simply a "double", while a hamburger with three patties is called a "triple". Doubles and triples are often combined with cheese and sometimes with bacon, yielding a "double cheeseburger", a "triple bacon cheeseburger", or, alternatively, a "bacon double" or "triple cheeseburger".
- A hamburger smothered in red or green chile is called a slopper and is common in the southwestern United States.
- A patty melt consists of a patty, sautéed onions, and cheese between two slices of rye bread. The sandwich is then buttered and fried.
- A slider is a small hamburger patty sprinkled with diced onions and served on an equally small bun, so-named because their small size allows them to "slide" down the throat in one or two bites. Other versions of the story say that the term "slider" originated from the hamburgers served by flight line galleys at military airfields, which were so greasy they slid right through you; or aboard U.S. Navy ships, because of the way greasy burgers slid across the galley grill while the ship pitched and rolled.[25][26] Another purveyor of the slider is Krystal restaurant. Burger King has sold pull-apart mini-burgers, first under the name "Burger Buddies" and later as "Burger Shots". In the late 2000s, the "slider" gained in popularity and has been featured on the menu even at more expensive restaurants, such as T.G.I. Fridays. Jack in the Box also serves sliders marketed as "Mini Sirloin Burgers".
- In Minnesota, a "Juicy Lucy" (or "Jucy Lucy", depending on which restaurant's origin claims is to be believed) is a hamburger with cheese inside the meat patty, rather than on top. A piece of cheese is surrounded by raw meat and cooked until it melts, resulting in a molten core of cheese within the patty. This scalding hot cheese tends to gush out at the first bite, so servers frequently warn patrons to let the sandwich cool for a few minutes before consumption.
- Buffalo burgers are made with meat from the American bison.
- A low carb burger is a hamburger with the bun omitted, and large pieces of lettuce used in its place, with mayonnaise and/or mustard being the primary sauces used.[27][28][29]

In 1994, the then Victorian Department of Conservation and Natural Resources proposed selling the 47.5 hectare parcel of Crown Land for housingdevelopment, but a group of concerned residents formed an action plan in order to save it as a historic precinct and for the establishment of flora and fauna of the Central Highlands. Today the management of Cornish Hill as a Crown Land Reserve is the responsibility of a Community Committee of Management. A group called 'Friends of Cornish Hill' carries out all hands on work on the Hill.
Generous grants from a number of funding bodies and input from a group of enthusiastic volunteers has enabled great progress to be made in controlling the weeds and re-establishing the local plants that were once endemic before gold mining disturbance.
Wonderful news!
Thanks to the Victorian State Government, the Committee of Management of Cornish Hill, under which umbrella the Friends work, are recipients of a very large grant of $49, 645. An enormous amount of time was spent writing the submission and this wonderful news will allow further weed eradication, using a variety of techniques, tree planting, continued work with the local schools, cleaning up around the mining relics, photographic records of all the changes being made.
It is exciting that this Committee has been recognised by the State Government. When mining finished, a variety of weeds took hold, gradually smothering what native vegetation remained. Local residents have been concerned for some time now that Cornish Hill poses a real fire risk. It is reassuring for everyone that weed control will go along way to reducing the fire risk, increase biodiversity, protect remnant vegetation such as wild flowers and revitalise Cornish Hill, turning it into a haven where everyone can enjoy picnics, bike riding, walking and enjoying the ambience of Smiths Creek as it tinkles it's way through the Reserve. And just think……..it is well sign posted, and thanks to Hepburn Shire Council, and easy walk from the town Post Office.

Greater Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Chu (陳菊) yesterday led a delegation to China and was scheduled to meet her counterpart in Tianjin later that day. It was her second visit to the country in four years.
Chen said the goal of this visit is to invite her Chinese counterparts to attend a conference of mayors to be held in Kaohsiung in September, to promote the city and solicit investment.
During her visit, Chen will also meet Taiwanese businesspeople in China, according to the city government.
Chen's last trip to China in May 2009 to promote the World Games held in Kaohsiung made her the highest-ranking public official from the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) to visit China to date.
Chen said she had informed DPP Chairman Su Tseng-chang (蘇貞昌) of the trip and had received his support.
During her trip, she is also scheduled to visit Shenzhen, Xiamen and Fuzhou to invite their mayors to attend the Asia-Pacific Cities Summit, which is scheduled for Sept. 9 until Sept. 11.
Going to China to extend the invitations is part of her responsibilities as mayor of the summit's host city, Chen said, adding that she will also discuss issues related to city development and exchanges with her Chinese counterparts.
So far, the mayors of more than 50 cities have signed up for the summit, officials said, adding that Kaohsiung officials visited these cities to issue invitations.
In Beijing, Chen Deming (陳德銘), chairman of China's Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits, said the Chinese government welcomes Chen Chu's visit to China.
Beijing has always been open to cross-strait exchange activities, he said on the sidelines of a student event.

Insights from Michael Bloomfield, Founder and Executive Director of the Harmony Foundation http://www.harmonyfdn.ca/
Never underestimate the power of the purse and the malleability of our politicians. Every week it seems that headlines expose new allegations of misconduct involving politicians, lobbyists and their business benefactors.
Companies have always ranged from those who follow the rules and act responsibly to those willing to try getting away with murder. Among the first companies to establish more formal standards of conduct were those reeling from the US defence contract scandals of the 1980's. In response, and perhaps to stave off public and government demands for corrective action, companies developed voluntary compliance mechanisms as a demonstration of efforts to clean up their messes before the courts did it for them.
The credibility of any code of practice ultimately depends on whether or not it is taken seriously by respected industry, labour, public and government agencies and that, in turn, hinges on the effectiveness of monitoring, transparency and accountability. While self-regulation may look appealing, and was at the time heralded as proof that the invisible hand of the market works, it is in fact incredibly problematic. It may be easy enough for a firm to enforce a certain code within its own brick and mortar, but what about its contractors, suppliers and foreign operations? Without proper oversight there is no way of knowing if corporations are in fact meeting their self-prescribed codes of conduct. Self-regulation, for all practical purposes, is non-regulation, and all too often a prescription for disaster.
Today, the responsibility for ethical conduct is greater than ever. According to Fortune Magazine and the World Bank, 63% of the world's largest 100 economic entities are corporations. Remarkably, Wal-Mart, BP, Exxon Mobil, and Royal Dutch/Shell Group all rank in the 25 largest economic entities in the world, above countries that include Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Norway, Denmark, Poland, South Africa, and Greece.
This is especially problematic because the nation state is the primary arbiter of human rights and environmental regulation when it comes to multinational corporations (MNCs). In international law, MNC's do not exist as subjects in the same way that nation states and individuals do. They are acknowledged only as "objects" with nowhere near the same amount of responsibilities despite their enormous power. It is the obligation of each state to ensure that within their sovereign territory all international treaties and protocols on issues like the environment and human rights are fulfilled.
The rise of such enormous corporate power has often enabled private pursuit of profit to overcome public interests. Strong governments in the West may be able to reign in large corporations if they choose to do so. However, governments in the global South— desperate for economic development and plagued by corrupt officials— stand little chance against these enormous entities, let alone largely defenseless populations.
It seems we are witnessing a classic "race to the bottom" scenario, where developing nations must "compete" for corporate investment by ceding environmental regulation, compromising the health and safety of workers, and disregarding their human rights. Poisoned air, water, food, and people are far too often accepted as the price of progress.
To be fair, not all corporations should be maligned with the same brush of reckless irresponsibility. Multinational corporations have played an important part in healthier development. Foreign corporations have partnered with governments and civil societies to inject important investments, infrastructure, and expertise into developing economies, as well as to help guide better labour, health and environmental practices. Notable examples of such laudable corporations personally known to me include Royal Bank of Canada, The Co-operators Insurance Company, the Bank of Montreal, and General Electric. My only regret is that more companies don't exhibit the same leadership.
Please don't misjudge me as naïve; every company has room for improvement in their social and environmental practices. The question is how do we ensure fair labour practices and the protection of human health and the environment a core part of corporate culture?
Fortunately, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become mainstream, adopted at least in rhetoric and gesture by many of the world's largest organizations. In many ways this new trend in CSR is a result of globalization. Today's communication is such that news, both good and bad, is shared widely and instantly. To counter bad publicity and to build a reputable brand image more and more corporations are turning towards well-publicized CSR initiatives.
Regardless of the motives, it is undoubtedly a good thing that CSR is becoming established in the business world. However, just because corporations have undertaken these seemingly principled initiatives should not mean that they be left unregulated and to their own devices. Corporations recognize the value of good public relations and good public image, but that value always will be measured in dollars and subject to cost-benefit analysis. If cutting corners on environment and public health saves more money than good PR, then that is what will be usually be done. It is an unfortunate truth that many businesses and individuals put economic interests and personal gains ahead of principles and integrity.
History has made clear that while some corporations have done genuinely good work and contributed to sustainable development, not all are so benevolent when left to set their own standards for ethical conduct. Famous incidents of corporate failure include Shell Oil in Nigeria, Union Carbide in Bhopal, India, Hooker Chemical in New York's Love Canal, Japan's Chisso Corporation in Minamata Bay, and Chevron Texaco in Ecuador, Angola, and Nigeria, and they may be the tip of iceberg.
The unfettered free market does not work for the people. The fundamental rights and needs of human beings and the environments and cultures that support us should not be dependent on corporate goodwill. We need to place higher demands on all businesses to adopt ethical practices at home and abroad at the highest possible standards.
As Einstein once said, "If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed." Unfortunately, Einstein may be right. However while we may be a "sorry lot," we are neither hopeless nor powerless to change our behavior or that of those around us. To this end, we should turn to another piece of Einstein's wisdom, "The problems we have today, cannot be solved by thinking the way we thought when we created them."
In practical terms that means we must change the way we approaching the challenges of the day. Self-regulation created many of the corporate problems we face today, and it is nothing but foolish to expect self-regulation to solve them. We must create and enforce international standards for business ethics, ensure that international impartial observers have the power to change behavior, to punish and reward accordingly.
Multinational corporations have social and environmental responsibilities to the peoples and environments from which their enterprises profit. It is our duty to ensure that these responsibilities are respected.

Hundreds Expected to Attend August 4 Hearing
Hundreds are expected to attend the Aug. 4 public hearing on the proposed Lighthouse project, which intends to refurbish the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum and develop the 150 acres surrounding the arena.
The Hempstead Town Board accepted the Lighthouse Development Group's environmental report as "ready for public review" at its July 7 meeting.
"The input of involved agencies, fire district officials, community groups and the general public are very important as we consider an innovative and exciting development proposal," Supervisor Kate Murray said. "Rest assured the town will consider all of the testimony, evidence and relevant information as we proceed with state-mandated and other reviews regarding the Lighthouse Project. The entire town board is keenly focused on the promise of progressive development proposals while it seriously considers the impact of such projects on our environment and the quality of life enjoyed by our families and future generations."
The hearing, scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 4, will focus on issues within the Draft Generic Environmental Impact Statement (DGEIS), including issues on traffic, drinking water, storm water runoff and the disposal of garbage. The hearing will take place at the John Cranford Adams Playhouse, located on the south campus of Hofstra University on Hempstead Turnpike in Hempstead.
Many in Garden City believe the project's intended retail space could hurt the village's business sector. "It can do irreparable harm where you cannot recover," Trustee Dennis Donnelly, liaison to Garden City's business district, said.
Trustee Donnelly urged Chamber of Commerce officials to step forward as the voice of the business community. "We should certainly encourage the chamber to be at the hearing to make a statement as to the vitality of the retail space and what that's going to do," Donnelly said.
Althea Robinson, executive director of the Garden City Chamber of Commerce, has confirmed that she, along with chamber president Roger Eltringham, will attend the Aug. 4 hearing.
Trustee Nick Episcopia, who represents Garden City's eastern section, was taken aback by the project's large amount of square footage devoted to retail. "A lot of it is supposedly 'a very large supermarket,'" he said. "But [if] you're going to have all those residential units, you're going to have to have supermarkets. And you're going to have to have smaller stores like dry cleaners, pizza parlors, etc."
Trustee Episcopia continued, "But 500,000 square feet is absolutely huge, that's the size of a mall. What kind of a long-range effect is this going to have on us? Is he going to be able to fill this all up to support the residential or support the coliseum? That's not really outlined and there's nothing there that shows what kind of effect any of this would have on the local business communities."
Mayor Robert Rothschild said he's seen Garden City's retail numbers and they're not good. "We have to remember that this project's first phase is the redevelopment of the coliseum … There aren't any banks, investment companies doing construction loans right now. He's not going to build 500,000 square feet of retail that he hopes he can fill … and no one will tell you how long it's going to take to get 500,000 square feet of retail filled…"
Although it may take years for the spaces to get filled, Mayor Rothschild believes the project will undoubtedly affect retail in Garden City.
Residents like Maribeth McNelis of Newmarket Road are concerned with how fast the project is moving forward.
"We need to mobilize as a community at this point. This is going to happen. There's an inevitability to it and I think we need to exploit it and capitalize on it," she said.
McNelis has had enough. "Garden City has been massacred with the tax structure. We need to start standing up for ourselves as a community. I think that we need to speak openly understanding that 99.9 percent of this community would be against this project for obvious reasons. … The quality of life issues are insurmountable."
She said she is particularly disappointed with the lack of leadership on the town and state levels. "Kate Murray, she works for us. Carolyn McCarthy, she works for us … I don't care what political party people are from I just feel very unrepresented in this town. I feel like we just keep paying, paying and paying and getting very little in return. Our village takes care of us but beyond that, we're really not getting any bang for our buck."
At the hearing, the Hempstead Town board will invite testimony from the developer, elected officials, "involved agencies," community groups and the general public. Interested agencies include the New York State Department of Transportation and the Department of Environmental Conservation, the villages of Garden City and Hempstead, the Uniondale School District, local fire departments, the Nassau County Department of Public Works and Health, the Town of Hempstead Water Department, LIPA as well as others agencies, groups and more.
Charles Wang has reportedly said the entire Lighthouse project – from beginning to end – will take eight to 10 years to complete.
Should We Focus on Traffic Issues?
Greenman-Pedersen Inc. (GPI), the environmental firm Garden City trustees engaged to review the Lighthouse Project's Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), may have put too much emphasis on potential traffic issues, which some trustees think may backfire in light of Tom Suozzi's proposal for a light rail system.
"If you recall, I think back 11 years ago to the Saks property. With respect to that property, there was an emphasis on traffic congestion but not in the mix at that time was this vice we have thrown at us now – which is the transportation through Garden City. I think we have to play down that situation because if we start pursuing traffic congestion issues they could say we made a case for public transportation … We need to put traffic on the back burner," Trustee Donald Brudie said.
The emphasis on possible traffic problems is a compelling argument but for Garden City? Trustee Andrew Cavanaugh isn't sold. "For Garden City, which sits somewhat removed from the actual location, I don't know if we're going to get a lot of traction with that kind of very detailed argument because, as I say, we are at some distance from it."
Trustee Cavanaugh continued, "I think there are other very big issues raised by the Lighthouse Project which do have an effect on Garden City. One of them is an overbuilding with respect to the retail and a dilution of the retail present in Garden City.
"I don't know that Greenman-Pedersen, Inc., at least based on the proposal that's before us, is in a position to either opine knowledge about that or if they'd be willing to opine knowledge about that. I'm wondering if this is a sufficient preparation for comments we want to have made during the comment period. There may be other elements of concern that really are not being addressed here. The emphasis that is being addressed may be of secondary or tertiary value to us because of where we sit in relation to the actual physical construction of the project."
Village Counsel Gary Fishberg said trustees could argue that the Lighthouse Project's traffic study is faulty since it disregarded roadways in the village like Meadow Street and Commander Avenue and was last done back in 2003. Some trustees believe the project should not go forward until the study is properly updated.

This is a submitted sponsored story. CCN urges readers to conduct their own research with due diligence into the company, product or service mentioned in the content below.
In the march 2017 Crowdsourcing Service Providers Market Research Report published by IBISWORLD, IBISWORLD found that," Since its emergence in the early 2000s, the Crowdsourcing Service Providers industry has experienced explosive growth...The Crowdsourcing Service Providers industry is projected to continue to expand over the five years to 2022, albeit at a slower rate than the previous five years. Crowdsourcing platforms will mature, resulting in more stable, slower growth."
The Global Insights from Regional Alternative Finance Studies Report from University of Cambridge Judge Business School estimates that the market cap. for the alternative investments market exceeded $30.7 billion in funding in 2015. Furthermore, in 2015 the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance (University of Cambridge) estimated that Online channels of finance had a market cap of over $145 billion in 2015.
Crowdholding has tapped into both the crowdsourcing and alternative finance market by creating a platform where businesses pay consumers in YUP token to give their insights on a matter related to a stage in the businesses development. Because businesses are using consumer insights to co-ocreate their companies, this will ensure that a business is more likely to succeed in their market due to the substantial amount of customer feedback. Once a business receives a sufficient amount of crowd support, Crowdholding will allow that business to launch an ICO.
Crowdholding is an online platform that runs a crowdsourcing model. Businesses pay users who provide insights to their tasks in YUP tokens, Users then use these YUP tokens to invest in businesses or to purchase goods & services on the Crowdholding platform. Because it is in the best interest of both the Businesses and the users on the Crowdholding platform to receive YUP token, there will always be a demand for the token.
Target Market:
Crowdholding's target customer base is the small fintech and blockchain businesses with 2-25 employees and up to $500k investment capital. The ideal user on the Crowdholding platform is a 18-34 year old that is proficient in english, looking to apply their insight as a consumer to businesses in return for revenue.
First, Crowdholding will focus on servicing payment, analytics, e-money, p2p, and trading fintech companies; after successfully servicing that market, crowdholding will then service e-commerce startups, and after successfully servicing e-commerce startups, Crowdholding will service all companies looking for capital and support.
Crowdholding launched their beta in March 2017. This gave Crowdholding the opportunity to test and study their self-supporting model that revolved around the Yupie token. In the beta period, over 2000 users signed up to use the Crowdholding platform. Statistics showed that users came back to the Crowdholding website at least 8 times per month and spent over 3 minutes on the website during each visit. The Beta included businesses in the, Online Gaming, Dating application, Apparel, and Music industries just to name a few of the many industries on the Crowdholding platform.
The Three (3) Step Plan
Step one (1): Launch in February 2018. Ten (10) startups will receive 5% of total YUP (31,550,000 YUPIE tokens.) issued to use for bounty campaigns (31,550,000 / 10 = 3155000 YUPIE tokens= 3155 ether per business). The 3155000 YUPIE tokens per business can be thought of as a gift given to the company by Crowdholding. The gifted tokens will be used by startups to promote and accelerate their business. Throughout step one (1) , businesses can join the platform with their projects by buying the YUPIE token directly from the market.
Businesses will use their YUPIE tokens to post tasks and pay users in YUP for providing insights to the tasks. The users will then use that YUP to invest in businesses or purchase goods and services, eventually, YUP will be able to be exchanged for other currencies.
CrowdHolding takes 10% of all commissions awarded for work. This means that 10% of the total valuation of YUP on a business task goes back to the Crowdholding; A 5% fee is returned to Crowdholding when a user invests in ICO's.
Step two (2): Launch of the Decentralized Open Innovation (DOI)
The Decentralized Open Innovation (DOI) platform acts as an intermediary between businesses and the public. Each month companies will solve business challenges on the Crowdholding platform and attach a % of revenue (paid in YUPIE tokens) as a reward for contributing a solution to the business challenge. Co-creators will share insights to enhance the products & services and get awarded with YUPIES, which in essence represent future revenue. The value of the insights are judged by the public via a vote system. The voting-system provides a filter that makes it easier for a project creator to find a good insight. But ultimately, the project creator can choose to use--or ignore--crowd insights as they see fit.
At the end of a financial period, a part of the distributable profit is transferred to an Ethereum (ETH) wallet containing a Smart Contract. The ETH is then redistributed proportionately to all holders of YUPIE tokens according to the smart contract condition--think of it like a royalty being paid out.
- Afterward, Crowdholding will open The Distributed Online Funding (DOF) platform. The DOF platform will allow Businesses to raise capital via a token crowdsale. But before a company is given permission to host an ICO, first, a company must create a community around the brand and verify whether there is concept and the crowd evaluates it.
When a business goes through this coaching stage (receiving crowd insight) and gets the final feedback from the community, then, a businesses will be allowed to launch their ICO.After the business launches their ICO, they will continue to receive active management support from the Crowdholding team.
Step three (3): Continue to expand the Crowdholding platform throughout 2018. Crowdholding estimates that 3700 businesses will launch an ICO with on their platform by mid-2021.
Token Distribution
Token Allocation:
Capital raised from the ICO will be utilized for Crowdholding operations, marketing & PR, legal & IT development costs, and other expenses including paying for ITA infrastructure, rent, patents, and trademarks.
Presale Information:
On Sunday, September 17th, thirty-two (32) days after launching their pre-sale, Crowdholding ended their pre-ICO. Crowdholding raised 514 Ethereum tokens--314 ether more than their target of 200. At a rate of $300/ETH Crowdholding raised around $154,200.
ICO information:
Crowdholding will be hosting their ICO on November 1st, 2017
YUPIE tokens are not classified as securities because ownership in YUPIES does not provide any ownership or related rights in a company.
YUPIE tokens have not been registered under the United States securities act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to or for the benefit of any united states persons unless they are so registered or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available.
ICOrating.com rates the Crowdholding ICO at medium risk.

Luis Machicao says he's grateful for every opportunity he gets to show his latest fashion designs and is even more thrilled that an upcoming event will benefit a good cause.
Machicao, a fashion designer from Peru, is one of several artists who will take part in the third-annual World AIDS Day: Celebration of Art, which will be held Saturday at Bob Doster's Backstreet Studio on Gay Street.
Judy Barfield isn't one for large crowds, but couldn't pass the chance to see what bargains she could get at area stores.
This year, she wants to finish her Christmas shopping early. She thought that Friday would be the perfect time to start, but arriving at stores early in the morning wasn't in her plans.
The day after Thanksgiving – coined by retailers as Black Friday – is considered the busiest shopping day of the year. Stores were crowded from opening to closing, with shoppers looking to take advantage of early-bird sales and other steep discounts.
Rosie, a small black and white stray puppy rescued from the county animal shelter, napped in a padded puppy crate, flanked by people wearing red "I Love Animals" T-shirts.
Although oblivious to her surroundings, she was the reason that 32 people met at Jackson Shrine Club on Monday night. The discussion was about forming a Humane Society chapter in Lancaster County.
Organizer Bob Hunter stressed the need to reduce the number of unwanted dogs and cats in the county. He said most of the 5,146 animals brought to the county animal shelter in 2007 were euthanized.
INDIAN LAND –S.C. Attorney General Henry McMaster gave Sun City Carolina Lakes residents an overview of the "water wars" between North and South Carolina.
McMaster spoke to Sun City's Republican Club on Nov. 13.
North Carolina officials want to transfer 33 million gallons of water per day from the Catawba River to the cities of Kannapolis and Concord. The water would be taken from the river each day without being returned to it, McMaster said.
It's long been rumored that an alligator has called the 35 million gallon reservoir at Springs Global's Grace Complex home.
And this week, Springs Senior Vice President of Human Resources Roland Myers confirmed that's the case. But how the alligator's home will be affected when Springs closes the Grace plant early next year isn't clear.
Myers said the company has notified the S.C. Department of Natural Resources about the alligator. He said officials there didn't give the company a clear path on how to secure the alligator.
Lancaster County Council is working on approving an ordinance that will keep concrete plants in heavy industrial areas and hopefully away from neighborhoods.
County Council unanimously passed first reading of an ordinance that will require concrete plants to locate in heavy industrial districts. Right now, they're allowed in both heavy and light industrial districts.
The change was prompted by the situation between Brookchase residents in Indian Land and the Blue Dot concrete plant adjacent to the neighborhood in Perimeter 521 Business Park.
A local nonprofit group has hired an architect to complete plans for the renovation of the old Barr Street School.
Hope on the Hill has hired Jim Montgomery of MHM Architects of Charlotte to complete design work for new window and roofing work at the old school.
The Lancaster County School District agreed in 2005 to lease the building for $1 a year to Hope on the Hill. Under the agreement, the organization will ultimately take ownership of the building.
A Los Angeles band with local roots is trying to benefit from its large network of fans to win a MTV 2 contest.
Djinn, an alternative rock band with three members from Lancaster County, is looking to get enough nationwide votes to be considered to play on the MTV New Year's Eve celebration show in New York City.
"We're really getting into it for the further exposure," said former Lancaster resident Daniel Ghent, Djinn's lead singer.
Lancaster City Council approved an update to its zoning ordinance at its regular meeting last week.
Council approved the update after much discussion during its first reading of the proposed changes at the Oct. 23 meeting.
At that meeting, city building official Richard Bowers presented changes recommended by the city planning commission.
Council unanimously approved the nearly 41 changes on second reading at the Nov. 13 meeting.
Councilmen Preston Blackmon and Danny O'Brien were not present.
The Lancaster County School District received an "average" rating on its 2007 state-issued report card, the same ratings it got in 2006.
The state Department of Education released the report cards earlier this month.
Schools and districts are assessed by two ratings on the report cards – absolute and improvement.
Absolute ratings are based on overall student performance on standardized tests, and improvement ratings look at individual student test scores from one year to the next and the number of students who have made such gains.

Roo does it again/
Just before the rain hit, Roo on an Oklahoma ranch road. Perhaps you can't tell, but she is plotting. Patiently she waits.
She has already been swimming. Of course the brambles and thorns have been brushed out of her. Of course she knew—she could smell—a swimming hole coming. Of course I told her not to go in. You can practically see the laughter in her body language, can't you?
Is it that proximity to water has some sort of effect on the eardrums of retrievers, making it impossible for them to hear? Anyone else have this problem?

Jump Drink
|This article is non-canon.
The subject matter of this article does not take place in the "real" Half-Life and Portal universe and is considered non-canon.
|The title of this article was translated for the wiki.
The name of this subject in the original language, Japanese, is "ジャンプドリンク".
|Jump Drink
|Production information

|Game information
The Jump Drink is an item (used as a weapon game-wise) in the Battle Mode of Half-Life 2: Survivor, which can be purchased for the Resistance Ranger and the Resistance Engineer for 150,000 SG. It was added to the game in the 2.05 update,[1] which was released on December 17, 2008.[2] Combine characters have the Timer Grenade available instead of it.
The player can drink it by pressing the secondary attack, thus applying it to himself. It can also be thrown by the primary attack button, allowing the it to be used on a player who picks it up. The Jump Drink applies the Jump Boost status effect to the player who drinks or picks it up.
The Jump Boost status effect doubles the player's jump power and melee attack damage while mid-jump, increased shooting accuracy while mid-jump and grants immunity to fall damage. The effect lasts for a maximum of 15 seconds. If the drink is used for a second time while the Jump Boost effect is still active, the player receives the second level of the effect, making the jump power and melee attack damage while mid-jump 5 and 10 times more powerful than initially. Green colored tornado can be seen circling the player while under either level of the effect.
- After being dropped, it can be picked up both by teammates and enemy players, but teammates will also see a flashing Jump Drink symbol with an arrow pointing towards it, even through walls, making it easier for them to find it.
- While the melee attack damage mid-jump is increased 10 times with the second level of the Jump Boost, the increased jump power makes it very difficult to hit anyone with a melee weapon, as the player reaches the height of skybox almost immediately.
- The first level of the effect is sometimes still active for some time after the second level runs out (depending on the time between using two drinks), but if both levels run out while the player is high in the air, he will likely die from fall damage.
- Only one of the three drink effects can be active at a time (the other two being from the Power Drink and the Mind Drink). This means that the Jump Boost effect will get canceled if the player uses a drink of other type, and vice versa.
- This item, along with other drinks, is available from the Surprise Box.
- The Jump Boost effect is removed after the player's death, submerging in water or using the Recovery Injection.

This blog post is from a few years ago — I just found it in my drafts, I guess I got sidetracked. In 2013, I designed a book called Wild Berries by Julie Flett. We are working on making some printables out of this book, and this is is the first one: recipes for simple blueberry jam + labels.
The recipe is in English and in Swampy Cree, also known as
n-dialect Cree from the Cross Lake, Norway House area. Translation by Jennifer Thomas. This printable is here with permission from the author.
I tried it out, and first of all, it was really good, but also, you don't have to sterilize jars and all that stuff. It's fun to make with kids. The ingredients can be wild blueberries and birch syrup or supermarket blueberries and maple syrup. I tried both: both very good. I mean, you can't go wrong. Amazing with whipped cream on waffles.

Dave's suggestions from my very first post on this gave me great ideas – and simply trying to replicate what he did was a fantastic learning experience. You can click on the image to get the whole thing.
I was able to play with sketchup on my commute to work back and forth yesterday, and woke up early this AM to fix some errors I made. The key to success was making groups which I wasn't doing before. I was very pleased when all the pieces finally fit together.
My commute is later this morning, which gives me some time before the work rush starts at home…
The one thing I have not figured out (whether it's a problem of mine or a feature of sketchup) is to color in the face under the arc. I have the horizontal lines connecting, but maybe there are other connector points that need to be joined so it knows it's a face?

Thursday night more than 600 pro-family Virginians attended The Family Foundation of Virginia's Annual Gala to hear a dynamic address by former Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline. He did not disappoint. Pacing the stage and speaking with passion, Kline urged an audience that included Lt. Governor Bill Bolling, Attorney General Bob McDonnell, Speaker of the House Bill Howell (R-28, Stafford), and several legislators and other elected officials, to continue to fight for enduring truth and for what is right and just regardless of the political consequences, because that is true leadership. He spoke of the breakdown of the rule of law in our nation because of the rejection of fundamental truth and mixed in personal stories from his battle with Planned Parenthood in Kansas, all of which energized the crowd. Because of his principled stands he became a target of Planned Parenthood, the media, the elites and the political establishment — first in his re-election campaign for attorney general, where he was defeated; then, most recently, for re-election as Johnson County District Attorney — this time in the form of a defeat to a Republican primary challenger.
Despite that, Kline continues to pursue the truth and bring justice for those who have suffered at the hands of Planned Parenthood clinics in Kansas. Speaking of the fight and retaliation against him by Planned Parenthood, the media, elitists and the political establishment simply for enforcing the law, he said, "They stole my name. They destroyed my reputation."
Also last evening, The Family Foundation was thrilled to present the 2008 Legislator of the Year Award to Virginia Senator Ken Cuccinelli (R-37, Centreville). Cuccinelli fought to defund Planned Parenthood in the 2008 General Assembly by introducing a budget amendment in the Senate. That fight shut down the Senate for over four hours while Republicans and Democrats fought within their own caucuses. Ultimately, the vote was a 20-20 tie with Lt. Governor Bolling casting the deciding vote in favor of the amendment. The budget amendment, unfortunately, was not included in the final budget.
Senator Cuccinelli has been an advocate for property rights, life, marriage and many other values in his time in the state Senate. We were pleased to be able to honor him.
Family Foundation President Victoria Cobb told the crowd that as we are on the heels of another dismal campaign season, we are once again hear the pundits, media elite and politicians — Republican and Democrat — declare that Virginia is no longer conservative and that the battle is over. But she said that while many of us are frustrated with the state of politics in Virginia, it is how we now respond to that frustration that is going to determine our future success.
She stressed that we cannot allow ourselves to wallow in pity or despair, and we must carry on; that those who claim our demise do not understand our values; that those who seek to silence us simply do not understand our faith; and that those who wish us to abandon the field do not understand our resolve. They do not understand that we will not stop.
Thank you to all of you who supported this year's gala as a patron, a sponsor, a volunteer or in any other way. It was a rousing success, and we are extremely grateful for your continued support and prayers!
