Everyone of us has some goal or ambition in our life which we plan to achieve. For some, it can be buying a house or a car at some point of time in future. For others it can be children's education or marriage or their own retirement planning or financial independence. All these goals require huge sums of money to accomplish.
Now, everyone has goals but unfortunately very few of us are aware of the tools available to achieve these goals. To accomplish these goals requires very careful planning and discipline.
Systematic Investment Plan or SIP as popularly it is called is one such tool. It can be very useful to achieve your goal of wealth creation.
What is Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) ?
Before understanding SIP investment, it is important to know what exactly a SIP is.
SIP or Systematic Investment Plan is the method of investing in Mutual Funds in a systematic manner in small regular predetermined instalments on regular time intervals over a period of time.
Investment intervals can be chosen anything from daily, weekly, fortnightly, monthly or quarterly as per individual requirements.
Similarly, instalment of the amount to be invested can be selected as per the comfort of the investor.
Usually, there is some lowest amount fixed by each company which the investor can opt to invest and there are multiples of that instalment which can be chosen for investment.
Let us take an example. Suppose a person X wishes to invest ₹ 4000 per month in a mutual fund for the next 5 years. He shall choose a good quality mutual fund for SIP investment. He can opt to invest the amount either ₹ 4000 monthly or ₹ 1000 weekly or ₹ 2000 fortnightly for the next 5 years.
Understanding SIP Investment
SIPs are considered best investment method for people who don't have much knowledge of stock markets or who can not actively track the markets but yet want the exposure of the market to grow their investment.
Mutual funds remain the very good option to start a SIP for these people. Here, professional fund managers hired by the mutual fund companies do the work of managing the portfolio. The investor just needs to invest in the fund.
Each mutual fund scheme has a Net Asset Value (NAV) . It moves with the markets just like the price moves in the stocks. The movement in the fund is not as dynamic as in the stocks.
When you opt for a SIP, you buy the mutual funds at the NAV price available on the date of buying. Units are allotted to your portfolio.
When the markets are moving higher, the NAV of the fund rises and you get less Units. When the markets are moving lower the NAV falls which results in more number of Units allotted. In this way, your buying gets averaged over the time period.
SIP acts like an automatic investment plan. You give the consent to deduct money by the mutual fund company and it gets deducted on each due date automatically.
SIPs has the potential to yield 12% plus returns in the longer investment horizons. Though being a market dependent instrument, the returns depend how the markets behave over that period of time.
By opting for a SIP, one can avoid investing in lump sum amounts and earn better return than lump sum investment.
How To Plan For A Goal ?
Before starting a SIP, it is very important to define your Goal. This is really very important. Only after you have fixed your Goal, you can plan the amount you need to invest and time period required for that investment.
There are several types of SIP Calculators available which help you to calculate the monthly investment required to reach the Goal or the target amount you can accumulate by investing an amount fixed by you for a particular period of time.
After you have planned everything, then you have follow it in disciplined manner. Keep investing every month or week whatever interval you have chosen without bothering about the market moves.
Lump sum vs. SIP investment Comparison
Let us see the poser of investing via SIP through an illustration. I have chosen HDFC Top 200 Mutual Fund as investment option here. Two person Harsh and Ricky want to invest ₹ 90,000 in mutual funds.
On January 2011, Ricky goes for lump sum investment and gets 398.98 Units @ current NAV at that time (90,000 / 225.586) and exhausts all his investment sum in one go. Harsh choses to go for SIP in same fund on monthly intervals with instalment fixed at ₹ 2500 / month.
Harsh choses to go for SIP in same fund on monthly intervals with instalment fixed at ₹ 2500 / month.
Both invest for 4 years. Harsh has spread his investment over 3 years or 36 months. He didn't need to exhaust his capital in one go. Every month he kept accumulating units at prevailing NAV (see below figure)
Harsh's SIP continued till 02/12/2013. He accumulated 437.46 units till then. On January 2015, both sold their holdings.
On that day, NAV of HDFC Top 200 quoted at ₹ 345.46.
Investment of Ricky has market value of 398.98 X 345.46 = ₹ 1,37,782. Investment of Harsh turned to 437.46 X 345.46 = ₹ 1,51,077.
Ricky has a gain of 53.09% while Harsh got gains of 67.86%. Only understanding SIP investment and executing the plan made a difference of 14% in returns (see figure below)
Advantages Of Systematic Investment Plan
Understanding SIP investment can carry you far ahead in your dream of being rich. It is an important tool of investment management.
1. No need to time the market. By SIP, you continue to invest irrespective of the market levels. You buy more when markets are falling and buy less when markets are rising, giving you the benefit of Rupee cost averaging over the longer period.
2. Makes you disciplined towards your investment and goal achievement.
3. Risk of market movements is minimized by rupee cost averaging.
4. You need not to invest in lump sums. Small regular investments do the trick.
5. Helps in accumulation of wealth over the longer time horizons by compounding factor. You may also go for Equity Systematic Investment Plan (ESIP) or Systematic Equity Plan (SEP) by directly investing into good quality stocks.

Jeannie Mai revealed on The Real that she has been on two dates with a guy she met on social media. That guy has the verified check mark which means he is official. Then Adrienne Bailon wanted to know if he has ever been a guest on the show. That is when she turned red, started to sweat and said yes.
But that is all she will say for now, so we are left to guess which one of the guests it has been. Who do you think it is?
Is it ethical to date a guest on a talk show? But then again, I knew of an anchor who used to date a popular rock star. I also know of a few actresses who dated producers on news shows, so I guess it is.

text: September 22, 2010 Arkansas Trophy Whitetail Bucks Why hunt far from home when you can kill four trophy whitetails on public land within five miles of your front porch? Arkansas' Frank Foster did just that! By Clay Newcomb It was late October 1994 and 25-year-old Frank Foster had located a scrape line that was smoking hot. With bow in hand, he sat anxiously in a ground blind positioned 20 yards downwind of the scrapes. The previous five mornings of hunting had been fruitless with no buck sightings. Now, by 11:29 a.m., Frank was facing the same disappointing results.Four of Frank Foster's largest public-land whitetails -- a 139-inch 9-pointer taken in 1994 (top); a 158-inch 8-pointer taken in 1997 (rt.); a 178-inch 13-pointer taken in 1999 (lt.); and a 172 2/8-inch net typical taken in 2008 (middle).Suddenly, a flash of antler up the ridge changed everything. A mature buck appeared and proceeded to work scrape after scrape as he paraded his way toward the scrape directly in front of Frank. As the 139-inch 9-pointer stood broadside at 20 yards, Frank released an arrow from his High Country Excaliber that would mark the beginning of a big buck era. A UNIQUE HUNTERIn the world of whitetail hunting, context is everything. The varying circumstances surrounding the deer we harvest add meaning and value to hunts that otherwise might be considered ordinary. In the case of now 39-year-old Frank Foster, there is nothing ordinary about his hunting resume. If Foster lived in the Midwest and had access to private tracts of pristine hunting ground, anyone would no doubt be impressed with his trophy wall. But if I told you he harvested bucks grossing 139, 158, 178 and 182 -- all on public land in the Ouachita Mountains of west-central Arkansas -- would you be doubly impressed? Foster, of Big Fork, Arkansas, has done just that. The most interesting part of his story is that he harvested all of these bucks within five miles of his home!The Ouachita (Wah-shi-tah) Mountain Region of Arkansas is characterized by thin rocky soils and massive stands of mature timber. The topography varies from rolling hills to rugged steep mountain terrain. Polk County, where Foster harvested all of his deer, consists of large blocks of public land in the Ouachita National Forest. It's an area that is not known for holding large numbers of deer. FEAST OR FAMINEIn years with good mast, the deer eat well. But times get tough during years when acorns are scarce. No row crop agriculture exists and Ouachita deer simply don't have the year-round nutrition that Midwest whitetails have. However, what these deer lack in nutrition, they seem to make up for in genetics and age class. Whitetails are protected in these mountains by massive amounts of rugged topography. Simply put, many Ouachita bucks have the potential to reach maturity. The region also harbors good genetics for producing tall tined typical whitetails. In the last six years, Polk County has produced three net Booners, all of which were typical 10-pointers.In mid-November 1997, Foster spotted a wide, dark-horned buck chasing two does across a private pasture and into the timber. He noted the direction the buck was traveling and surmised that the does would lead him off the private land and into the National Forest. Having extensive knowledge of the terrain, the hunter knew about some big buck sign high on the ridge in the direction the deer were going. He then walked about 3/4 of a mile to position himself between the deer and the sign.He sat for about an hour before he saw the two does with the 20-inch-wide 8-pointer in tow. The deer was broadside when Foster's Model 700 Remington .30-06 turned the living legend into history. The dark-horned mountain buck gross-scored 158 inches as a mainframe 8-pointer! Foster had just increased his largest deer by 20 inches. Little did he know that in two years he would do the same thing again!CLIMBING THE LADDERFoster's next strike occurred on Nov. 17, 1999, when he decided to hunt an area that he hadn't been to in some time. He arrived at the big clear cut at first light and found his way to a spot where he could see 300 yards across a ravine and over to a corresponding parallel ridge. "I hadn't been there 10 minutes when I saw a big deer come out of the timber on the opposite ridge," Foster said. The deer proceeded to walk at a steady pace into some thick brush. Then, the lone buck turned and headed back up the ridge the same way he had come. Foster was ready. As the buck entered an opening, he made a loud mouth bleat to stop the buck. At the crack of the rifle, the deer dropped instantly!"I knew it was the biggest deer I had ever killed," Foster said. "His size blew my mind. I really wasn't expecting him to be so big. He was 17 inches wide, massive and had lots of long, tall points."At the 2000 Arkansas Big Buck Classic, the buck officially gross scored 178 inches and netted in the 160s. Foster had done it again! He had just increased his largest buck by 20 inches!MAKING IT HAPPENFoster hunts a lot. He works the third shift at a local factory and gets off work at 5 a.m. You'll find him in the Ouachita woods close to 80 percent of the time on any November morning. On Nov. 10, 2008, he listened to the weather report and heard a welcome phrase -- "Cold front moving in." Foster gathered his gear and headed toward the truck! "I walked about a 1/2 mile to my stand site in the National Forest just after 7 a.m.," he said. "The spot is located in a big hollow that has several fingers leading out both to and from bedding and feeding areas."Foster arrived in the flat just after daylight, and climbed into the stand. "I pulled my gun up and put it on my peg," he said. "I got out my rattle bag and was getting everything situated. All of a sudden, I heard the crunch, crunching of leaves. I looked back up a little ridge that and saw a buck. I hadn't been in the stand more than five minutes. All I could tell was that he was a good deer."The deer was 75 yards out and heading directly toward the stand when Foster squeezed the trigger. He knew he had put a killing shot on the deer but he had no idea how big the deer actually was.Foster spotted the downed whitetail about 40 yards away. As he walked up to the huge animal, he wasn't prepared for what he was about to see.Lightning had struck him for the third time! At the 2009 Arkansas Big Buck Classic, the huge typical mainframe 5x5 rack officially gross-scored 182 7/8 inches and netted 174 2/8. The mammoth rack was 176/8 inches wide and sported sky scraping G-2s over 12 inches long.HUNTING TIPS OF A REAL PROHaving grown up in the Big Fork area, Foster's knowledge of the public land he hunts has been paramount. Over the course of the season, he hunts numerous areas and often doesn't hunt the same stand more than a few mornings in a row. He utilizes other hunting seasons, like turkey season, to cover new ground and look for last year's big buck sign. In the late winter woods, he hunts sheds and scouts for the next fall. He keeps records of big buck sightings and sign that he's found. Foster prefers to hunt active scrapes in travel areas. In mountain terrain, this includes ridge tops, fingers, saddles, benches, flats and the heads of hollows.Most of Foster's success in hunting over scrapes has been in the mornings in late October through the first 10 days of November. By utilizing the mountain wind and not over-hunting any single stand site, he keeps his "hot areas hot." Morning hunts during the week on public land can be very productive as most hunters are either at work or in bed. Amazingly, all of Foster's public-land deer were harvested in the morning!Foster's three biggest bucks have all been harvested during that magical time in mid-November. Good solid hunting practice accompanied with lots of hours in the "rut woods" has produced unbelievable success for this avid whitetail hunter.

Ike has decided the country is humming along nicely, the USSR is contained, and he's ready to retire. Naturally, lots of politicians want to take his place in the White House. One of them offers the following campaign speech:
"I represent change!
"If elected, I promise to do or encourage the following:
"We need to fight wars in the Middle East so that Muslim countries can be taught to enjoy our freedoms. Two wars minimum, maybe three. Ten, twelve years of combat and occupation should win the hearts and minds of the locals. Yes, sure, a few thousand Americans will give the full measure of devotion, and we'll have to make room for a few more thousand without legs, arms, or faces in our VA hospitals, but it will be worth it to insert Democracy in Afghanistan, Iraq, and wherever.
"But that's not enough! We need to replace the American population. It's too overwhelmingly white. Too Christian. Hardly a Muslim or animist to be found! I promise to ignore our national borders and encourage people from Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa to come establish colonies in our cities. To show them the joys of capitalism and keep the wheels of industry turning, they can do the jobs Americans do, but at a fraction of the cost to business. I know as taxpayers, you will be happy to subsidize them through welfare programs such as free birth vouchers, free housing vouchers, free medical vouchers, and free food vouchers.
"Of course real progress depends on shipping as many American jobs as possible to other countries. We'll begin with manufacturing jobs, but as our technology improves we should be able to send many service and 'white collar' jobs abroad as well.
"But make no mistake, a country can't run on pure economics. I pledge my unstinting efforts to social justice. Our workplaces must be run by and for our minorities, who will be given preference for jobs, not only in the government but in private industry, or the Czars and Lord High Bureaucrats I appoint will take companies to court till they get the message. Nor will we ignore the fundamentals under my command. My federal court appointees' mission will be to ensure that students have unlimited rights to ignore or taunt the teachers, that no one in the protected class of a certain race fails because of inability.
"I envision the day when sex education begins in kindergarten and homosexuality is taught. Speaking of which, how do we expect to win the Cold War when all our military personnel are men, straight men at that! I promise to create co-ed combat units, and make a special effort to recruit homosexuals -- my staff tell me they call themselves by the delightful term 'gay' -- and lesbians for our armed forces.
"Naturally, in our new 'rainbow' nation, it would be unthinkable to demand our new colonists speak or learn English. We must move forward, for the future lies ahead, and America has no future without millions of immigrants to give us vibrancy. As some of you may know, a dead white male by the name of Shakespeare wrote, 'O brave new world, that has such people in it!'"
[He stands, waiting for applause. Dead silence. There's a little stirring in the crowd, maybe a growl, what's wrong with these people?]
"Er, perhaps I am too idealistic, too bold. I know these are the white-bread, conformist '50s, and we are a nation of racists and Indian killers, but I say we can change. And with your votes on election day, we will!"
Then I wake up. Suddenly, it's 2011. Thank heavens, it was just a nightmare.

School Readiness
Preparing Colorado's Children
CDE and School Readiness promote a start early approach to school. With a strong, early start Colorado children will be more likely to continually succeed in school. School Readiness supports teachers' ability to create responsive learning environments that ensure academic and developmental growth for students. This includes promoting awareness of developmentally appropriate practices (DAP) that supports hands-on learning experiences and challenges students' thinking.
To do this, school readiness assessments are used on an ongoing basis to measure children's growth. Information collected through the assessments provides teachers with targeted instruction opportunities for individual students and small groups of students, thereby strengthening the learning environment for students.

Blog by Ken Toll
My last two blogs touched on a new community vision, United Way's focus on Financial Stability, and the impact of poverty and near-poverty on people and the community.
Today I want to touch on how Jackson County is going to really move the needle.
Remember our vision: We will be a community rich in opportunities to eliminate poverty and allow all people to achieve financial stability and success.
A vision is great. Every community should have one. But if we don't take deliberate steps to make it real, it's just words on paper.
This is where partnership is so crucial. United Way and the Financial Stability Coalition put their heads together to figure out what big, bold step we could take collectively to move Jackson County toward that vision. Out of that months-long discussion, we set a nine-year goal that will drive us toward that vision.
Here's the goal: Help 5,000 Jackson County residents develop a pathway to financial success by 2025.
At first blush, it sounds doable. But remember the complexities of economic instability. Something as simple and seemingly unrelated as a school child with a sniffle can start a cascade of events that leaves a family in financial trouble.
What do I mean? A child feels sick and reports to the school nurse. The school calls the child's single parent. Mom leaves work to get her child. She doesn't have child care or any relatives available to help, so she stays home with her child and loses a day's pay. Turns out the child has influenza. Mom misses several days of work and has to take her child to the doctor. Now she's out a week's pay. She's already having trouble paying her bills, and now she's 25 percent behind for the month. What if she can't make her rent? She could be evicted. What if she can't make her car payment? She might lose her car, which is her only way to get to work.
See how it spirals out of control?
We believe no family should face that risk. That's why United Way and the Coalition have put a stake in the ground. By helping 5,000 residents find the way to financial stability, the people of Jackson County will have the tools, knowledge and supports they need to leave economic uncertainty behind.
We will be looking at bolstering education programs that help kids succeed, graduate and go on to successful careers. We'll look at programs that help people generate more income or manage what they have more effectively. We'll look at programs that promote nutrition and healthier lifestyles. And as always, we'll look at support systems that help people through financial bumps and crises so they can keep following that pathway to success.
We'll be talking a lot more about Financial Stability in the months ahead. I hope you'll be part of our work to achieve our bold goal and make the vision real for all of Jackson County.
Got some feedback on all this? I'd love to hear it! Send me an email (email@example.com), give me a call (517-784-0511) or share your thoughts on Facebook.
Help families become Financially Stable

Multiple composers
NickIst posted a topic in Feature RequestsIn v3 808 a composer tag is used, but if I have several composers per track separated by ; PA reads only the last one. Is there any possibility to display all the tags, creating a separate entry for each composer in the composers' list?
ID3v2 standard for multiple tags is to use null bytes (\0) as separators to split ID3 tags in multiple values. See Wikipedia The null byte is the C string terminator. Therefore standard programs are using only the first value. Extended programs show all values as multiple tags. Poweramp supports '/' and ';' as separators which worked very well, but these separatores are only supported by a few programs. All other programs are using wrong genre names "genre1;genre2;genre3". Null bytes are a much better choice because programs never present wrong genres names, they will only use the first genre skipping the others. If ID3-tag is separated by null bytes (genre1\0genre2\0genre3) then Poweramp concatenates these multiple values with colons to a single value "genre1:genre2:genre3". The standard separators \0 are completely ignored and overwritten by colons. This is a bug. BTW: Mp3tag is using null bytes if genre is separated by two backslashs: genre1\\genre2\\genre3. These genres are handled as separate tags.

B-17 Airplane Model Scene
Former TAP employee Matthew O'Connor recently entered this model in the Marin County Fair Model & Creature Competition. The model scene won first place as well as a special award during the event.
The water is acrylic, and the plane is fiberglass covered with epoxy resin. The engine covers are made of slush mold quik-cast, and the internal engines are of insta-cast castings. X-30 foam was used to create the hillside then covered with epoxy and sand as a base coat. The windows are made of acrylic, and the guns are made of styrene rod. Congratulations Matthew!

For those of you who are in need of a complete SEO company with search engine submission tools, then DOitSEO is for you. What are search engine submission tools for? The submission tools are a way to tell Google about pages on your site might not otherwise discover. In its simplest terms, an XML Sitemap is a list of the pages on your website. Creating and submitting a Sitemap helps make sure that Google knows about all the pages on your site, including URLs that may not be discoverable by Google's normal crawling process.
Why is it important for SEO companies to be able to handle this task? Sitemaps are an easy way for webmasters to inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling. In its simplest form, a Sitemap is an XML file that lists URLs for a site along with additional metadata about each URL, such as when it was last updated, how often it usually changes, and how important it is, relative to other URLs in the site. This metadata for the URL's allows the search engines to more intelligently crawl the site.
Search engine submission tools integrated in our SEO tools allows Sitemaps to provide Google with metadata about specific types of content on your site, including video, images, mobile, news, software source code, and geographical. For example, a video Sitemap entry can specify the running time, category, and family-friendly status of a video; an image Sitemap entry can provide information about an image's subject matter, type, and license. You can also use a Sitemap to provide additional information about your site, such as the date it was last updated, and how often you expect the page to change.

"How is getting past a giant metal block slamming against the floor every couple of seconds not impossible?"
The Doctor and Nyssa land on board a giant floating pyramid travelling without apparent destination through the limitless vistas of space. Of course, they're not the only intruders aboard…
A family of grave robbers has designs on a legendary treasure deep within the bowels of the tomb. But there are riddles and traps galore to be found herein, and terrifying insectoid life forms guarding its secrets…
Wow, someone's really letting their geek flag fly…
With a rather obvious genesis in a bit too much Tomb Raider style videogaming, the entire script by Gordon Rennie and Emma Beeby (The Doomsday Quatrain) is comprised of little more than one timing based trap and linear logic puzzle after another.
There's little or nothing to engage the viewer here, mind, as these aren't the sort of mental challenges presented by the Agatha Christie style whodunit, but an entirely intrinsic algorithm left to the characters themselves (generally the Doctor) to solve for the rest of us, sans clues. All that's left for the listener is to sit back and enjoy the ride, as it were.
And to think, readers used to complain about the deus ex machina, 'godlike' mystery solving of Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes…
"I'm sorry about your brothers."
"Half brothers, really. Mother…there's two things she's good at collecting, husbands and treasures. And she keeps the treasures a lot longer than she usually does the husbands."
There's another obvious source here, relating to none other than comic book legend Jack Kirby. With her callous singlemindedness and implementation of pre-planned eugenics to achieve her aims, the tyrannically acquisitive Virna (Eve Karpf) is clearly inspired by the Apokoliptian 'bad mother' Granny Goodness.
Effectively torturing, lying to and utilizing her numerous offspring to her own selfish ends, she spawns seeming dozens of progeny from multiple fathers, cracking the whip militarily to use them as cannon fodder in her exploration and pilfering of suchlike tomb ships throughout the universe. With their naïveté and devotion, are these effective laboratory bred slaves even slightly removed from Granny's Furies and slave camp "trainees"?
"You mean it was all for nothing?"
While the synopsis promises exploration of ancient mysteries with a sci-fi bent, much akin to Pyramids of Mars, Tomb of the Cybermen or even the somewhat flawed Last of the Colophon, all we're actually given is a sort of celebration of geekery, with Who melded to the related but intellectually less developed worlds of the videogaming and superhero comic book industries.
"Right behind you…unfortunately…"
Leaving little for the listener but a lengthy and moebius strip-like repeating sequence of often underdeveloped characters as they express a neverending loop of naïveté, callousness, tension and death, the end result comes off a bit hollow: Who in trappings, but featuring precious little of its essential composition beneath.
Sans soul, we're left with something of a whitewashed sepulchre, looking ornate and exotic to casual viewing, but filled with little more than the stench of dead men's bones within.
"Lovely boys, you must be so proud."
While I did certainly enjoy The Tomb Ship speaking as a fan of both Who and the sort of "mystery in space" milieu being tapped into here, those accustomed to far meatier fare from Big Finish (and Classic Who per se) should take note.

What evidence will I produce for the rest of the group and its tutors to prove that I have? This first phase ends when every learner's contract has been assessed by every other learner – note, not just by the tutors. If it is too easy or too hard, it must be adjusted. The second phase of the work will typically be about carrying out a project which will meet the criteria each learner has agreed. The final phase is assessment. Again, this will be done by the whole group, not just by the tutors. This approach to adult learning is too radical for some.
But mostly, learning to drive needs an activist approach. It cannot be learnt through reading books.

Magnetic filter are commonly used in slow, free flowing materials such as water, grain, food, spices, plastic and chemical fertilizer. The rods can be installed individually in one row or multiple rows. Standard spacing between the rods are 2-inch horizontally and vertically center-to-center. When multiple rows are needed for better separation, the rods should be staggered. Other center-to-center arrangements can be accomplished depending on product flow characteristics and flow rates. The rule of thumb for determining the center-to-center distance is that installations must not cause product bridging and must allow easy access for cleaning.
These magnets are provided in different strengths and lengths. Multi rows of magnetic rods with Ceramic 5 magnetic load (2,500 Surface Gauss) are suited to capture large ferrous metals (i.e. nuts, bolts, washers, nails, etc.).
Magnetic rods with Neodymium magnetic load are recommended for applications where ferrous metal contaminants are much smaller (i.e. metal chips, stables, metal shavings, etc.). Magnetic Hold offers several magnetic rods with neodymium load for your application. The stronger magnetic rods are highly recommended for food and pharmaceutical products.

This year I'm not going to make resolutions to do anything. I'm just going to do it. Here are five things I propose to do:
1. Put away money out of every paycheck, even if it's a few dollars. I know I can't realistically save $200 or $100 out if every paycheck. It's just not in the cards for me at the moment, though it very well could be soon if I play my cards right. I know at the very least I can save something. That's what I aim to do.
2. Dispose of clothes and makeup I don't use or need. If someone else could use these things, great. I'll donate them. If they're unusable I have no problem with throwing them away though I definitely used to. I already do these things periodically, I just know an overhaul is due.
3. Do things that make me happy more and things that aren't good for me less. Of course I already do some things I love, but it's easy to neglect oneself and get caught up in doing more things you hate or just plain have to do. I think life is too short to waste it on a dead end job or dead end toxic people. Live your fullest life, and don't feel bad for taking some personal time to yourself or pursuing something no one else believes in. I'm worth investing time in and so are you. Cheesy yes, but true.
4. Pour love into the little things
I think some weird thing happens after you turn 21 that makes you realize almost everything your Mom said was true. It makes you a little mad that she was right about that happening too, but it also liberates you. Time spent laboring over trivial petty issues or fighting in general is most likely time wasted.
There is a solution to almost every problem and I'm going to try to remember to pour more love into every relationship and friendship. If a strong bond exists it'll be more difficult to lose respect for people you love and have damaging blowout fights. Who needs them? It's more fun to have coffee or write a love letter for no reason. Be nicer to the people you love. Those are moments that matter.
5. Take care of my skin.
This is kind of random but skin care is so important and so many people including myself neglect it at times. Another weird thing happens after 21 when you suddenly start worrying about these things. Luckily thanks to YouTube and the internet it's easier than ever to find the perfect skincare routine and how to apply it to your daily life.
Love you all and wish you a very wonderful new year's!

Against Somerset at Trent Bridge on June 3rd 1893, Frank Shacklock became the first cricketer to take four wickets in four successive deliveries for Nottinghamshire in a championship match.
Although all four batsmen were shown as b. Shacklock, in fact the first and third, R.P. Spurway and W.Trask, were bolwed off their pads, whilst the second, A.E. Newton, played on; the fourth man to go was J.A Gibbs.
A right-arm fast bowler F Shacklock was born in Crich, Derbyshire, on September 22nd, 1861, but his parents were from Kirkby-in-Ashfield and had moved to Derby shortly before Frank's birth and the family returned to Nottinghamshire in 1867, so that Frank was regarded basically a Nottinghamshire cricketer.
Shacklock appeared in a Nottinghamshire Colts match in 1883 and in the same year for the Colts of North v Colts of South at Lord's. His first-class debut came for Nottinghamshire v M.C.C. on September 13th, 14th and 15th, 1883 but in 1884 he elected to leave Nottinghamshire and made his debut for Derbyshire v Lancashire at Old Trafford on May 22nd, 23rd and 24th.
His career with Derbyshire XI lasted two seasons during which his best bowling performance was 39-18-45-8 and 45-13-97-5 v Yorkshire at Derby in 1885 and his highest score was 50 in 2 ½ hours v Yorkshire at Bradford in 1884.
In 1886 he changed his allegiance back to Nottinghamshire and immediately gained a permanent position in the XI. His desertion of Derbyshire caused a great deal of criticism and in no small measure was the prime factor in that county being removed from the first-class list a year later.
During 1886 and 1887 Shacklock showed moderate all-round form, but in 1888 he fell away to such an extend that he lost his place in the side. Returning to the team for the third match of 1889 Shacklock was not called upon to bowl but he did hit the second highest score for the County in the following game v Surrey at Trent Bridge and took 10 wickets in a match for Nottinghamshire for the first time.
Frank Shacklock continued to feature in the Nottinghamshire side until 1893, his last contest being v Kent at Canterbury on August 10th, 11th and 12th, after which the Nottinghamshire Committee suspended him for indiscipline.
Emigrating to New Zealand, Shacklock was coach to Otago and Wanganui College and in 1910 became coach to Auckland C.C. In 1883 he took all 11 wickets in an innings for Lasswade XII v Edinburgh University XII and all 10 wickets for Lasswade v Loretto. In 1909 in New Zealand he hit 162* out of 190 in 80 minutes.
Frank Shaclock died in Christchurch, New Zealand on May 3rd 1937.

Brookes PIP skin
I got bored of how the Brookes Personal Information Portal looked.
So I decided to code a little plugin for Google Chrome to make it look a bit prettier.
Took about 6 hours as the page was so old that it was done with no CSS or XHTML whatsoever; tables and in-line formatting all the way. Still, with the help of jQuery's traversing functions I was able to overhaul it quite easily.
I even went so far as to extract the URLs of the navbar (along with their titles) and completely replace the setup with an alphabetised setup (before, the order changed from page to page, making navigation a case of hunting through the nav-bar for the link you wanted).
If you're a Brookes student, you can get it here.

Hi guys!
My mom came over for lunch today, and I made what I make usually: a colorful plate full of yummy things! Today I made scrambled eggs, stir-fried sweet potato, broccoli, avocado, tomatoes, and cheese. When I say usually that doesn't mean I eat this exact combination on repeat, it only means I cook with ingredients I currently have at home, sometimes adding more veggies, another time there's a ton of carbs. But mostly, this is how my lunch looks like (:
Sweet potato tip: fry it on olive oil on medium heat, add salt, turmeric, and a pinch of cinnamon, then pour some water over it and cook it for about 3 minutes (until the water is gone), and voila, the perfect sweet potato!
Scrambled eggs tip: whisk eggs gently, adding butter, salt, and milk to the mixture. Slowly fry in a non-stick pan and don't mix too much!
Have a yummy Saturday! Talk soon,

What you usually eat is way different from what I eat. I envy you for being into vegetables. Ever since I was a kid, I never really find vegetables taste good. I am more into meat and chicken recipes and I am kind of worried because I need to start living a healthy life. Anyway, I wouldn't really want to focus on my dilemma that much because I am actually here to compliment your blog! I do love visiting your site because it looks so cute! Your blogging style is really different from the other food bloggers that I have seen. Yours is my favorite so far. I will make sure to check some of your other sites too.

South Indian cooking class
A few weeks ago we took a South Indian cooking class at Spice Route, a restaurant we like located not far from Seattle, in Bellevue. The class was described as including a tomato chutney, a sambar-lentil soup, and dosa. And a full meal. We sometimes cook Indian food at home, and enjoy eating in Indian restaurants, but have never had a close-up look at the food preparation via a class. I'm especially attracted to the unique flavors of South Indian cooking so this seemed like a good opportunity to enhance our knowledge and skills.
The class began with each of us briefly explaining why we became vegan — or for the one non-vegan — why she was taking the class. (Her family roots were in South India but she grew up in the Pacific Northwest and knew little about how to cook the traditional foods of her heritage.) Then the instructor began describing the cuisine(s) of South India, and the diverse, heavily vegan/vegetarian population living in the region. He talked about the ingredients and spices he was using, some of which you can see in the above photo. Someone asked if we should be taking notes or if we would be receiving information and recipe sheets, and we were told we didn't need to take notes as the recipes and such would be emailed to us. I prefer to have handouts at the beginning of class so I can add my own notes, which is what we usually encounter in cooking classes we've taken.
As the teacher spoke, he prepared the tomato chutney. I wish I could tell you what was in it but alas, we never received any post-class information.
He also cooked the sambar. Watching him cook, I realized I was missing a key ingredient in my spice collection — hing. He added quite a bit of hing to the food. He also seemed to be adding a large amount of salt, which he said was necessary to develop the flavor. Salt, like sugar, has addictive qualities, and the more you use, the more you want. Since I tend to limit my salt intake, the food in the class, delicious as it was, tasted very salty to me, and I was extremely thirsty after eating it. I don't like having to get past the salt taste to be able to experience the flavors of my food.
When I first read the class description, and saw dosa on the list, I was pretty excited, but once at the actual class, I realized it was a bit misleading. I LOVE masala dosa, and have always wanted to know how to make my own. I've read about making them but I thought a first-hand lesson would be helpful. Our teacher told us less than I already knew about the subject, and we got to watch someone cook dosa on the grill, not learn how to make them. Eating masala dosa is pretty great, but it's not the same as learning to make them.
On my plate you can see the foods cooked in class, along with idli, a wonderful thick, spongy pancake made from rice and Urad Daal, and a couple of bonus chutneys — the beige one is coconut chutney. Like dosa batter, idli requires fermentation, and our teacher told us it was too hard for us to make it in class. I guess that means I'll have to teach myself.
In the above photo, you can see a cook making dosa on the grill.
The demonstration was great, the food was delicious, and I was stuffed, but I'm still a little miffed that we weren't given recipes and ingredient lists. I understand that traditional cooks don't measure ingredients, but even approximate amounts and recipe techniques and steps would would be helpful. I have no idea how to make any of the things we theoretically 'learned' to make in class. I guess it's back to my cookbooks, the Internet and blogs to find out what I want to know about South Indian cooking! The cookbooks I currently have are Dakshin Vegetarian Cuisine From South India by Chandra Padmanabhan, and a really oldie but goodie called The Yogi Cookbook by Yogi Vithaldas. Do you have a favorite Indian cookbook?

What a fun evening! I can practically smell the spices and feel the heat from here. I'm bummed about the lack of recipes too, though... How else are you supposed to share the results with your hungry readers, after all? ;)ReplyDelete
Sounds like the cooking class was a bit of bust, seems like it was more of a demo than an actual class. Maybe it's their first time "teaching"? Have you checked out Vegan Richa's Indian cookbook? It's very good, I've only made a couple of things so far. She has a blog too.ReplyDeleteReplies
They teach lots of classes, and some of the students had been to a few others. The class was good, but the lack of follow through is disappointing. Richa lives in Seattle, and yes, I'm familiar with her colorful blog! Haven't seen the cookbook but I'm sure it's really nice.Delete
Sorry this wasn't up to snuff. More like a demo than a cooking class but I would have expected recipes, too. We have a few Indian cookbooks and the one we go to most often is 660 Curries. I should pull some of the others out. My latest one is Vegetarian Indian by Madhur Jaffrey. Very pretty but I haven't made anything from it yetReplyDelete
What a bummer! I can see why you were disappointed. Who offers to teach how to make a dish, only to say in class that it's too hard to teach?ReplyDeleteReplies
I may have misunderstood the class curriculum, thinking we were going to learn to make dosas. It takes several days to ferment the batter but I thought we'd have a more in depth discussion of what was involved and how to do it. We did get to eat them, which has its own rewards. :)Delete
Hello Andrea! I am big fan of South Indian Food. I ate many south Indian dishes last month when I was in India. I also cook many Indian dishes here also.ReplyDelete
It all looks good in any case, and sounds like now that you've mastered tortillas, fermented idli should be doable.ReplyDelete
I'm a big fan of Indian food, though i don't eat it often, and make it myself even less often. I do have hing, though! Although i'm never sure what to add it to, it's usually an afterthought for me.Replies
It WAS good — more than good. I agree that idli and dosa should be doable, and some day I'll do it. Tortillas, though, are easy and fast to make while dosas require soaking, blending, fermenting ... It's all a matter of attitude correction. I'm working on it.Delete
How strange not to give out the ingredients or recipes. I wonder what the thinking behind that was? It does look like a good meal, and hopefully the inspiration for more dosa experiments!ReplyDelete
Thanks for visiting Andrea's easy vegan cooking. I love, and read, all of your comments! Please share your thoughts.
There are a few Amazon links in the posts. Thanks in advance if you click on one.
