Causwells is not the classic American bistro, it's better. The restaurant combines reasonable prices with a laid back atmosphere and upscale comfort foods. The menu features dishes such as donut bread pudding in spiced milk. The dish itself uses All Star Donuts to create a dense, but truly heavenly bread pudding. Similarly, Causwell's deviled eggs and 'American Burger' are true fan favorites. This neighborhood joint is the perfect place to bring a date before swiftly meandering over to the Presidio Theatre located just next door. Be sure to also stop by on the first Monday of the month for discounted beer flights from local breweries like Headland's Brewing Company.
Causwells, 2346 Chestnut St., San Francisco, CA, USA, +1 (415) 447-6081
Glaze Teriyaki Grill offers Seattle-style teriyaki. This place is great for lunch as it offers combos of their Korean-Japanese blended barbecue. For those who do not eat meat, the menu also includes soy-marinated tofu, teriyaki wok vegetables, and salads.
Glaze Teriyaki Grill, 2095 Chestnut Street, San Francisco, CA, USA, +1 (415) 590-3193
During peak hours, don't be surprised to wait 20 to 90 minutes for your communal table at Delarosa. This Italian restaurant is the epitome of the Marina District and is easily one of the trendiest restaurants in all of San Francisco. The pizzas are delicious, but very thin, so be sure to order an appetizer. Favorites to enjoy on Delarosa's outdoor patio include their spicy meatball appetizer, as well as the burrata bruschetta with hazelnut and honey appetizer.
Delarosa, 2175 Chestnut St, San Francisco, CA, USA, +1 (415) 673-7100
If you live in the Marina District, Russian Hill, or out in Corte Madera, it will come as no surprise to you that Blue Barn is on this list. The prices of Blue Barn reflect their high-quality food, especially their seasonal produce from Oak Hill Farm in Sonoma. The deli-style establishment offers organic salads, hearty 'sandos', tasty grilled cheeses, and an array of soups for chilly San Francisco summer nights. This is a great place to bring self-proclaimed foodies, but also picky eaters as Blue Barn also offers create-your-own salads and sandwiches. Be sure to try their Popper Grilled Cheese, which combines pepper jack, goat cheese, niman bacon, and pepperoncinis on a sliced pain de mie.
Blue Barn, 2105 Chestnut St., San Francisco, CA, USA, +1 (415) 441-3232
Pizzeria Avellino will fulfil all of your thin-crust needs. As one of the few pizzerias in the city that sells slice by slice, Pizzeria Avellino will not disappoint. Customers may choose their toppings or pick from the pizzas of the day. Unlike most New York pizzerias, Pizzeria Avellino serves brunch on the weekends. With any order of breakfast pizza, customers can pay for bottomless mimosas. Later in the day, feel free to BYOB or purchase domestic beers that you can sip while sitting on the outside patio right next to the Presidio.

Mr. Bones & Co., a New York City-based rescue group, was born out of the journey of one pup, Mr. Bones, who doesn't let his terrible past get him down. Elli Frank, who adopted Mr. Bones, says,
"The life he led before me is a mystery. There are pieces to his puzzle that have surfaced during his rehabilitation and training that enrage me. Mr. Bones doesn't dwell on them and so I try hard not to.
"His ability to forgive and not look back astounds me."
Inspired to take action after adopting Mr. Bones, Elli founded Mr. Bones & Co. in 2013. The organization takes a specialized approach — they focus on the toughest cases, which can mean dogs with severe health issues or other obstacles that make it harder for them to find adoptive homes. Elli told PupJournal,
"We try to focus on finding the joy in the dogs' stories, and not let their past define them."
Mr. Bones & Co. has a knack for bringing the personalities of these pups to life for potential adopters. The rescue group often partners with Sophie Gamand, well-known for her "Pit Bull Flower Power" series, to capture the silly side of adoptable pups, even if they have medical issues. Elli, through Mr. Bones & Co., has a particularly soft spot for pit bulls, and told PupJournal that there is "an epidemic of abuse of animals, particularly pit bulls, in New York City." She goes on to say,
"Mr. Bones & Co. seeks peace and justice for pit bulls."
In order to offer truly life-saving services to dogs with "extraordinary challenges," Mr. Bones & Co. limits the number of pups in its One Lucky Pup adoption program. This allows the rescue group to fundraise and find extraordinary foster and adoptive homes to match the needs of these pups.
Mr. Bones & Co. receives support from dog lovers in all walks of life. Elli told PupJournal that many donations come via snail mail, with handwritten checks, and the fact that people take the time to mail even a small donation "propels [her] past the negativity" that can come from tough rescue cases. She writes a handwritten thank you note in response to each of these donations.
Mr. Bones & Co. has established a successful social media presence on Facebook and Instagram, expanding their reach to potential adopters and supporters around the country.

All of the "Democrat" puppies, above, have now been adopted!
Mr. Bones & Co. also founded a unique fundraiser called Rescue the Runway. This event exemplifies their philosophy that "Rescue is the New Black" by making adoptable dogs the center of attention on the runway. (The phrase "…is the new black" indicates that something is in vogue or in fashion.) And, as Elli points out, "the color black — and rescue — looks good on everybody."
The event also benefits other rescue organizations, like Animal Haven, well known for its positive work with dogs in New York City.
Elli told PupJournal that Rescue the Runway is a chance to showcase "the correlation between human welfare and animal welfare," so firefighters, police officers, and other public servants escort the dogs down the runway.
The Rescue the Runway event, which is held annually in New York City and was held in Chicago for the first time in 2015, even has a kissing booth. Marisa Grimshaw, Co-Executive Director of Mr. Bones & Co., shares her pup LilyBug's special kissing talents with the world (above).
Many rescue groups strive to help adopters recognize the importance of a personality match between adoptable pup and human family (rather than relying on breed — or perceived breed — to decide). Mr. Bones & Co. does a particularly good job of highlighting the narrative of these pups, even if their appearance isn't "perfect."

This video, shown at one of the Rescue the Runway events, tells the story of pups that have overcome huge obstacles to be adopted and show their solid gold personalities to the world.

Crudely animated, but was thinking of having the logo system reflect the current state of the project. So imagine, having the logo update across all social properties and then on the site have it animate to it's current position every time you view it.
Just thinking of a playful, living logo vs. just a static mark since the whole project focuses on progress.
Thanks to @Russel Quadros and @Varick for the brainstorming session.

SettingA forest long ago
CharactersA wizard, a magician, and their fleas
Below you'll find the story text and a link to download it. Use it to improve the emotional and cognitive development of your children or your baby and enhance your parenting skills
You know, they reckon Ken The Wizard and Clive The Magician had one of the best flea collections in world history. Those fleas were the cleverest, liveliest, strongest fleas of their era, and most useful for all sorts of spells. Ken and Clive never went anywhere without at least a thousand fleas on them, always kept safely in one of their bizarre glass bags, so that everyone could appreciate the fleas' special qualities.
One time, Ken and Clive happened upon each other in a forest. Chatting and joking, time passed by quickly and they realised that it was so late that they would have to camp out in the forest that night.
While they were sleeping, Clive The Magician sneezed with such magical violence that thousands of white-hot sparks shot out of his nose. Ken and Clive had left their precious fleas on some leaves for the night and, unfortunately, one of the sparks landed on a leaf and the whole lot set alight. As the fire started spreading, the two magicians continued sleeping, and their fleas began to look decidedly nervous.
They were all terribly clever and strong, so each one of the fleas thought of their own strategy to escape the fire. However, as they were still inside the bags, and they each jumped in all different directions, this meant that the bags stayed exactly where they were.
One of the fleas noticed how they were all leaping in different directions, with no coordination. He realised that they would never escape like that. He stopped jumping, and gathered a group of fleas who he convinced to jump all at once. As they couldn't agree where to jump to, the flea suggested that they all jump first forward and then backward.
The group started jumping together, and the rest of the fleas in the sack didn't take long to understand that jumping together would make it easier to escape the fire. So, soon all the fleas were jumping forwards, backwards, forwards, backwards...
The fleas in the other bag saw this and imitated it. The two glass bags were now rolling backwards and forwards, towards each other, and with one last effort they collided and both bags shattered into a thousand pieces, setting the fleas free. By the time the fire had woken the magicians, it was already too late. Although they managed to put out the fire, their precious fleas had jumped far off into the night.
And nothing more was ever heard of those truly exceptional fleas, although some people say that to this day they still work together to help each other survive the dangers of the wild.
Let's work on this story, now that is fresh on our minds!
A minute for thinking
As the fleas did, teamwork involves agreeing. What do you do to get a deal when you do not want to play to the game other children are willing to play? Look at any large building. What do you think the people who build it could have discussed about?
Let's talk!
It is very likely you have ever worked as a part of a major project. Talk to your child about that project and the role you played, and why your role was important to complete the whole project.
Why don't you try this?
You can teach teamworking using housekeeping. Ditribute all housekeeping tasks among everyone in the family, and you will gain more free time. Then you can spend that extra free time doing something fun together. This way your child will associate teamwork with "teamfun".

Look how handsome our 9 month old is!!!
We went to Kaden's 9 month appointment today. Dr said he's looking perfect. He weighed in at 18lbs 7oz (10-25%). Was 28 inches long (50%). And his head is 18 in (75%). He's growing right on track. Dr said he'd probably start slowing in his growth the next few months. I think he's just perfect.
Sleeping Habits:
Kaden is sleeping better. He's doing much better during the day with nap time. He's also sleeping longer at night. He still wakes up once quite a bit. I started thinking he wasn't getting enough to eat when I was nursing him before bed. So, we've been trying to get him to take a bottle before bed. Some nights he does good, and some it's still a hassle. But, in general, he's doing better.
Eating Habits:
Like I mentioned earlier, we're trying to incorporate more formula. He's starting to enjoy it and take it much better than when we first started. He still loves to eat. He's getting very independent. He loves to feed himself. He's pretty much grown out of baby food. He's not intersted. I try every now and then to feed it to him, but it usually just goes to waste. His meals these days consist mostly of cut up fruits and veggies. However, the Dr. just gave us permission to try pretty much anything.
New Tricks:
Besides being all over the place, Kaden has a few new tricks. He can wave bye bye. He can clap. He LOVES to play peek-a-boo. He'll cover his eyes with his hands or with a blanket or his shirt, and he just laughs when we say boo. And he loves it when we cover our eyes and play with him. We're working on blowing kisses. Right now he just thinks it's funny.
Dr. Visits:
We went to the Dr. two weeks ago. It wasn't a scheduled visit, but for two days he ran a fever of 102. He had no other symptoms, but we couldn't get his fever down. Because he had had 2 ear infections just before then, we decided to take him in to have him rechecked. They were fine. I guess he just had a little bug. He ran a fever for a few days with no other real symptoms besides being groggy, and after about 3-4 days he was back to normal. Then we went today for his 9 month check up. Prayerfully, we won't go back until his 1 year check up.
General Observations:
He's still very much independent and very much a momma's boy. 2 things that have stayed consistent. He's a happy boy! He loves to play. He loves to eat. He loves bath time. He's all over the place & into everything. He managed to crawl all the way up the stairs (with me close behind). He loves music & singing. He's smart. And he gives the best kisses.

Property Details
The Paradise Ranch on the South Fork Bench is located towards the tail end of the famous canyon stretch of the South Fork of the Snake River. Comprised of 307 deeded acres, and bordering Caribou – Targhee National Forest on all but one boundary, the ranch offers a diverse blend of rolling hills, agricultural grasslands, expansive aspen groves and conifers to sagebrush steppe and willow thickets along the various draws throughout the ranch. The terrain transitions gently downhill to the steep, rocky cliffs overlooking the beautiful waters and vistas of the South Fork canyon.
Located in southeast Idaho's Bonneville County, the Paradise Ranch is set in a mountainous region along the South Fork bench essentially surrounded by Caribou-Targhee National Forest with its 1.6M acres of public lands literally out your back gate. Idaho Falls is the nearest city and is a 35-minute drive from the ranch. Jackson Hole, Wyoming, the gateway to Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks, is a scenic drive less than two hours from the ranch.
The South Fork of the Snake River Canyon remains relatively undeveloped thanks to various landowners, groups and agencies committed to preserving this precious corridor. It has been designated as an Area of Critical Environmental Concern by the BLM due to its highly valued wildlife habitat, corridors and native fishery which is home to the highest concentration of Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout. There is an existing conservation easement in place on the Paradise Ranch with the Teton Regional Land Trust. The easement allows for the continued operation of a viable farming and ranching operation along with the development of a residential building area not to exceed ten acres in size. A copy of the conservation easement can be provided upon request.
Fly Fishing
The Paradise Ranch on the South Fork Bench overlooks the canyon stretch of this world-class fishery. From the ranch, it is a short hike or ride down to the river with national forest in between. The South Fork proudly holds the title as the top native Yellowstone Cutthroat fishery in the West thanks to continued efforts and management of Idaho Fish and Game, local outfitters and anglers who have adopted primarily catch and release ethics. The river boasts a tremendous diversity of hatches throughout the fishing season with both aquatic flies and terrestrials. Anglers will enjoy healthy populations of native Yellowstone Cutthroat trout, rainbows and browns ranging anywhere from 12" to as large as 27".
Wildlife and Recreation
The ranch is home to a diverse mix of wildlife. This area of the South Fork River canyon serves as a critical migratory corridor for elk and deer as they head to their winter range. Some will stay on the ranch during the late-season migration as it offers great habitat, shelter and forage. Wildlife which has been observed on the ranch includes elk, deer, moose, black bears and red fox. Birds of prey are also abundant as they use the ranch's cliffs and trees for nesting and hunting perches overlooking the river and fields below. The ranch is surrounded by over 1.6M acres of national forest and BLM lands offering seemingly endless trails for year-round activities including horseback riding, hiking, biking or ATVs and snowmobiles.
The Paradise Ranch on the South Fork Bench offers an incoming owner the opportunity to own one of the few private inholdings along this coveted stretch of canyon. A landscape rich in conservation and preservation, the ranch is a wild and scenic retreat for future generations to enjoy world-class wildlife, recreation and fishing on the South Fork of the Snake River.

Animal Breeders - Just out for money or thinking of the good of the animals?
By Pigglies
United States
January 10, 2007 7:56pm CST
I think a lot of breeders, unfortunately probably most, are just out for money. They don't care about the animals, they don't look into the best care standards, and they tend to not listen even when they know other care options available are better, just because if they spent more time with the animals and more money, they couldn't have as many and run a business. I'm against animals as commodities (if you didn't notice that already). I think there can be responsible breeders out there, but they are few and far between! Why would someone keep animals in cages/pens that are too small, not feed a proper diet, and then sell them to anyone who can pay? Certainly not because they love animals! I have seen breeders that get the animals tested for diseases, rescue animals of that breed or species if any are out there in need of rescue, give the animals plenty of room, proper nutrition, vet care, screen potential buyers, etc. But why would anyone even consider breeding if they weren't able to do all of that? I think this is a sad world we live in when animals have become nothing more than items to offer for sale.

My mom has a friend who breed golden retrevers and she interviews people before she lets them buy her puppys so she knows tehy go to a good home and she checks up on them and if they arent treating the dogs right she gives them there money back and takes the dog home. I think shes not like most breeders though she calls a lot of the people she talks about who breed dogs bad names and says she woiuld ban them from having pets. So I think maybe you are right and most breeders are not very good to the pets.

I do think that a lot of professional breeders do it all for the money and not at all for the animals themselves. When you look through breeders websites I think it is pretty easy to tell simply by the names of the rabbits that they breed. Obviously someone who has their animals named with real names has a little bit of a soft spot for them. I have seen many breeder sites whose animals are listed by a series of letters and numbers or tags on their ears.

I'm not sure the names are an indicator entirely, as many backyard breeders still name their pets but do not care for them. I agree that tattooing and ear tagging show animals is rather impersonal (and even cruel, I've seen it down, it is a horrible process... yes, humans get pierced and tattooed too, but when you hold down a child to do it, it would be considered cruel because it is against their will). I think a lot of small animal breeders especially (such as rabbit breeders) really overcrowd their animals, and often neglect vet care (because how much can they really sell a rabbit for? just an exam fee is $50). Many even neglect basic things like hay. And screening new owners to make sure they'll care for the animals properly? Good luck finding a small animal breeder that does that.

I think you have a little of both. I'm sure there are those that just want the money. We have friends that breed pugs and they definitely care about the animals. They'll plan the breeding to time it so that someone will be home to look after the mother when it's time for her to go into labor and when the pups are little. They take them to the vet all the time. They're constantly checking weight and temps to make sure the pups are ok. Of course the reason they do it is for the money, but they truely care about the animals.

That's good when breeders still go to the vet. A lot seem to not worry about things because the cost of the vet outweighs the cost they can sell the puppies (or whatever) for. Definitely better to plan the approximate time to be around a time where you won't be going anywhere. I think there are probably more bad breeders that good out there unfortunately though.

Yes, Ive been reading stories bout this puppy mill mentality, and take a note, they call themselves breeder. A reputable or responsible breeder is driven by the love of the animal (and the breed). they breed out of love and not for money.
• United States
11 Jan 07
Yes, unfortunately many backyard breeders practically run small scale puppy mills with the way things are there. Backbreeding, horrible cramped conditions, etc. I'd say to especially beware of a breeder who always has puppies available and who breeds more than one breed rather than specializing.

In What States Do Cherry Trees Grow?
At least one species of cherry tree can be grown in any state. As a cultivated and producing fruit tree, sweet cherries do better in warmer climates in hardiness zones 5 through 8, while sour cherries do better in zones 4 through 8. As a flowering tree, there are more than 400 species of cherry, many that are native to temperate zones of the Northern Hemisphere and growing in the wild.
Black Cherry
The black cherry tree, also known as the rum cherry, grows in the forests of eastern and central North America to the Dakotas. The tree grows to a height of 80 feet. The bark is dark gray and is used to make cough syrup. The wood is hard and used for paneling and fine furniture, according to "The Easy Tree Guide" by Keith Rushforth. The leaves are elongated ovals and alternate on the stem. The white flowers bloom on a raceme, an arrangement in which the flowers are borne on stalks growing from a central axis or stem. The fruit is black, round and edible.
Pin Cherry
The pin cherry tree is a shrubby tree that reaches a height of 33 feet in the wild. The tree is hardy and able to withstand the cold, according to "Field Guide to Trees of North America" by the National Wildlife Federation. The bark is dark brown and smooth when young, becoming pitted during maturity. The leaves are spear-shaped and taper to a point. The white flowers bloom on short racemes. The fruit is black and grows in clusters.
Sargent's Cherry
Sargent's cherry is found throughout hardiness zones 4 through 7, according to "The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Trees of the World" by Tony Russell, Catherine Cutler and Martin Walters. The tree grows to a height of 65 feet. The tree is identified by its glossy dark brown-red bark. The leaves are ovals with pointed tips that are dark green in the spring and orange in the fall. The pink flowers bloom singly on stems in the spring. The fruit is black and egg-shaped.

The Secret Life of Scoundrels, 3
Anna Harrington
Forever Romance
April 26, 2016
Josephine Carlisle, adopted daughter of a baron, is officially on the shelf. But the silly, marriage-minded misses in the ton can have their frilly dresses and their seasons in London, for all she cares. Josie has her freedom and her family . . . until an encounter with a dark, devilishly handsome stranger leaves her utterly breathless at a house party. His wicked charm intrigues her, but that's where it ends. For Josie has a little secret . . .
Espionage was Thomas Matteson, Marquess of Chesney's game-until a tragic accident cost him his career. Now to salvage his reputation and return to the life he loves, the marquess must find the criminal who's been robbing London's rich and powerful. He's no fool-he knows Josie, with her wild chestnut hair and rapier-sharp wit, is hiding something and he won't rest until he unravels her mysteries, one by one. But he never expected to be the one under arrest-body and soul . . .
My Thoughts:
Talk about it being totally unproductive day. How I Married A Marquess sucked me into the story. I couldn't stop reading once I started. I kept telling myself one more chapter, and I need to do something else. However, I kept telling myself this lie, and by the time I was close to finishing it I said "What the heck, why stop now?" Basically it was crack for readers, I loved every moment of this story. Anna basically grabs your attention with the first chapter and she doesn't let go. Thomas is a cad at the beginning, and he's restless. After getting shot in the last book and almost dying he's trying to find his footing through How I Married A Marquess. He was once a spy, but can't do it cause he lost his edge. Of course, that's not a good thing in a spy. Yet, he was given an opportunity to possibly get his career back with the help of a family friend. Then he meets this spirited, beautiful, young woman who isn't what she seems to be.

Now Josephine is such a fun character. She's not your typical aristocrat daughter. No, she's spirited and fun, yet she doesn't believe she's good enough to marry. She lets her adoption loom over her head, and she believes that she's going to taint some families bloodlines cause she isn't a natural daughter of the baron. He has a hard time accepting that her family loves her no matter what, and she's fearful that one day her family is going to wake up and realize that they made a mistake. Granted her family loves her to pieces, but it's a normal fear.
I had a great time reading How I Married A Marquess. Honestly it was fun and lighthearted. You have Thomas chasing after Josephine and trying to save her from herself. There is this friction between the two, because she believes that Thomas's family friend is up to no good. Yet, he can come to terms that he could be evil, which is their argument through most of the book. I get why Thomas is loyal to the family friend, because why in the world would he do such terrible things. We also meet Josephine's brothers who I think need their own books, because they seem like trouble. If you are need of an adventure, you might consider How I Married A Marquess. Who knows you might not be able to put it down once you start.

With determination, she snatched a glass of punch from a passing footman and weaved her way across the room, unable to tamp down her growing curiosity about him and the inexplicable yearning to meet him. Would those midnight blue eyes be just as intriguing up close? Would that mouth would be just as sensuous?
Sighing at her own foolishness, she slipped through the crowd like a moth drawn toward a flame. She should have been watching over her brothers. At the very least, she should have been watching for Miranda Hodgkins. Instead, she was stalking a handsome stranger, lifting her glass ever so slightly as she glided toward him, bumping her arm against his—
And spilled punch across his jacket sleeve.
"Oh, I'm so sorry!" She gasped as his hand immediately took her elbow to steady her…or to keep her from spilling the rest of the punch, she wasn't certain which. But when she glanced up at those sapphire eyes and a warmth stirred low in her belly, she didn't care.
Oh yes. Those eyes were just as intriguing up close.
With a shake, she collected herself. "How awful of me!" she exclaimed and brushed her fingertips at the few droplets of punch still clinging to his sleeve.
The two Sinclair ladies excused themselves with a touch of embarrassment for her, which Josie didn't give one whit about. Especially when the corners of his mouth curled sensuously at her in amusement.
"No harm, I assure you." His voice came as a deep purr.
She cleared her throat at the responding shiver that scattered through her like warm rain. "I'm so terribly clumsy." She continued to brush at his sleeve long after the punch had been cleared away, inexplicably unable to stop herself from touching him. "Everyone's always saying, 'Josephine Carlisle, how absolutely clumsy you are!'"
She thought she saw knowing laughter sparkle in his eyes before he sketched her a shallow bow. "Miss Carlisle, something tells me you're not truly as clumsy as you protest."
His words were just cryptic enough to give her pause and make her wonder again who this man was and why he was at the earl's party when men of his caliber never came to Blackwood Hall. But at least they were now engaged in conversation, and she had managed to accomplish the meeting—albeit by the most wretched self-introduction in history—without having to seek out someone to do the honors for her. And she didn't feel the least bit guilty at her subterfuge. Just hearing that voice had been worth it, no matter how briefly the meeting might last.
Deep in her heart, she wished it would last a good long while.
She smiled apologetically. "I do hope I haven't ruined your jacket."
"It's fine." His eyes swept deliberately over her as he murmured, "Very fine."
Her heart skittered. Good Lord, was he flirting? With her? Despite her uncertainty, she blushed like a debutante at her first ball. Goodness.
"You're not dancing."
"Pardon?" she breathed, her foolish heart daring to hope that he might be asking…But no. His words were only an observation, not a request, and her stomach plummeted with disappointment.
Of course, he wasn't asking her to dance. Why on earth would he make such a request of the clumsy woman who'd just doused him with punch? As if this man ever had to request a dance in the first place. Most likely, the London ladies would have all sought out his dance card if men possessed such things. And then her pride sank even lower as she realized she'd done exactly that herself by approaching him in such a pathetic ruse.
He nodded past her toward the dance floor where couples twirled in the roiling knots of a quadrille. "You're not dancing," he repeated.
"I'm saving my toes for the waltzes," she offered, curious to see how he would respond to that.
"Ah, toe preservation," he replied with mock gravity, his eyes gleaming. "A noble cause."
She smiled, strangely satisfied at his answer. Truly, she would have been incredibly disappointed had his response been anything less entertaining. "Indeed, sir, but perhaps I'm biased since I have a personal interest in the matter." She gave a small laugh. "Ten, to be exact."
When he followed the dart of her eyes to her slippers, which she wiggled beneath the hem of her gown, he slid her a charming grin that trickled its way down her spine with a languid warmth. The laughter caught in her throat.
Entertaining? Well, that was the understatement of the year. This man was utterly captivating. And for one shameless moment, bewildered at how he could draw such an inexplicable reaction from her so immediately, she wanted very much to become his captive.
"And you?" She cleared her suddenly tight throat and hoped her voice sounded much steadier than she felt. "Why are you not dancing?"
"I prefer the side of the room." Then he leaned in slightly as he admitted in a low voice, a faint smile tugging at the corners of his mouth, "So much easier that way for beautiful ladies to purposefully spill punch on my sleeve to gain my attention."
Her mouth fell open, and she gaped at him. Speechless. Both at his audacity at calling her out for her ruse and for claiming she was beautiful. And at her reckless desire to hear him say it again.

Due to expanding his printing company the client wanted to utilise two factories that lay empty on his site. We were instructed to design and build alongside the builder and client a fully functioning print press factory, from design through to production and finishing.
The project took over a year to complete owing to the ever changing specification and demands placed on us.
We designed, calculated and installed numerous 3 phase panel boards to deal with the demands needed for running the factory.
Additional office space was created on top of the original works and through allowing for future modifications we were able to quickly and neatly carry out this work.
Owing to the nature of print works the client also wanted the flexibility to sub meter parts of it for future use changes. This proved beneficial during and after when the use did in fact change.
The installation was handed over, fully completed, inspected, tested and certificated.

HYATTSVILLE – The future developers of Hyattsville could have more options when it comes to creating community benefits if the city's council decides to move forward with a new Community Benefit Agreement (CBA) policy or ordinance.
The topic, introduced by Mayor Candace Hollingsworth, was brought up during the discussion section of the Hyattsville City Council meeting on Oct. 2. She said she wanted to put the option before the council because she believes a CBA ordinance could be a useful tool for the city as it continues to grow and attract businesses and developers.
"The rationale behind it, for me, was twofold. One, to formalize, and in some ways require, participation when projects meet a certain threshold," she said. "But also to give a little bit of clarity on the types of projects that could be funded through Community Benefit Agreements."
A CBA is a tool used by cities, counties and states to negotiate how a developer will provide benefits to the community. Specifically, the agreement is a written document that details conditions a developer must meet, or should meet, to gain approval and support from a governmental body.
Benefits provided by developers in such cases typically address a need within the community or any anticipated issues the development could create. Examples of benefits provided signed by developers include public parks, apprenticeship programs, affordable housing, historic preservation of sites or buildings, local hiring quotas and funding for local art and culture.
Assistant City Administrator Jim Chandler noted, in a memo to the council written in 2015, that CBAs are a fairly recent tool utilized by cities such as Atlanta, Boston, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles and Seattle.
"The most prominent CBA was signed in 2001 and (is) known as the Los Angeles Staples Center agreement," he wrote. "The CBA was negotiated by the city of Los Angeles along with three local community organizations and the developer. The CBA terms provided formalized community support for the arena, parking lots, a residential complex and 250,000 square feet of retail space in exchange for a variety of public investments including $1 million for public park improvements, $25,000 per year for five years for a residential parking permit program, and a set percentage of affordable housing within the newly constructed residential development."
By creating an ordinance or a policy regarding CBAs, Hollingsworth said she hopes to create a clearer list of possible asks and a clearer line of communication of those desires when potential builders want to develop in Hyattsville.
However, Hollingsworth said the new policy would not require potential developers to take part in a CBA, but would leave it as an option if developers met certain criteria. Her proposed threshold for CBAs included multifamily developments with more than 120 units, developments that receive $200,000 or more in public benefits from the city, and projects seeking a density bonus in areas governed by a Prince George's County Transit District Development Plan.
Councilman Thomas Wright said he was confused about the potential thresholds for the CBAs and if any developer would be forced to be a part of one. Councilman Joseph Solomon wanted to know how the community and stakeholder engagement part of the new legislation would work. He also had questions about the difference between a policy and ordinance in this case.
Hollingsworth said she hopes the city could work as a "convener of sorts" between the community and project developers.
"In my initial thoughts around this, the ordinance would provide a list of eligible entities. So those entities that could be considered partied to an agreement and that the city would act as a convener of sorts," she said, explaining that a developer could reach out to the stakeholders based on the list and look at possible projects.
The mayor's proposal also included potential "eligible public improvements" developers could sign on to if they met the CBA thresholds. Those projects include affordable housing units, age friendly units, providing education enrichment grants or any project consistent with the Hyattsville Community Sustainability Plan.
Councilwoman Erica Spell said she would also like to see public schools added to the list of potential public benefits, as well as projects or funds for child and youth development.
Overall, Hollingsworth said the legislation is still in the works and the thresholds or potential projects she listed should not be taken as the only limitations. She said she was open to adding more, saying the lists were not exhaustive.
Several members of the council thanked her brining CBA options before the council for discussion.

Florida Bay
Florida Bay is the bay located between the southern end of the Florida mainland (the Florida Everglades) and the Florida Keys. Its area is variously stated to be 800 square miles (2,100 km2),[1] or 850 square miles (2,200 km2),[2] or 1,000 square miles (2,600 km2).[3] Nearly all of Florida Bay is included in Everglades National Park. The southern edge, along the Florida Keys is in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. The bay muds of portions of Florida Bay have been cored to develop insights on the paleontology of previous biota.[1] It has basins with banks in between which are great fishing grounds.[citation needed] The fish caught there are mangrove snapper, mackerel, and various others.
Environmental issues are problematic. Florida Bay used to be teeming with Roseate Spoonbills nesting and other birds and even American Flamingos used to be reported nesting, and the fishing excellent. However, due to fertilizer runoff of agriculture there are expanding dead zones in the bay, creating algae blooms on which bacteria feed, grow and then consume all the oxygen in the water. further microbes thrive in this oxygen free environment, but produce toxic gases where nothing grows. Fish and crustaceans leave, and the birds leave having no food source. [4] Canals divert water to the Eastern coast that originally went to Taylor Slough that brought freshwater to the bay through Everglades National Park. Without the freshwater, the water becomes stagnant and salty with excess nitrogen from the fertilizer. [5]

Antioxidants play an important role in maintaining your overall health.
They are the compounds which work to protect the cells from damage caused by oxidants, which are mainly responsible for disease formation.
The reports of scientific researches state that the antioxidants are an important factor for the optimal cellular and body health.
These compounds help to prevent the premature aging and different chronic diseases like diabetes, cancer and heart problems.
Thus, it's important to include antioxidant-rich foods in your diet to help fight the free radical damage. They are naturally present in certain fruits and vegetables. The lycopene of tomatoes and beta-carotene in carrots are all different types of antioxidants.
In today's article, I'm sharing with you a list of foods which are rich in antioxidants and you must add them to your diet.
Let's begin!
Dark Chocolate :
Good news for all the chocolate lovers out there! Dark chocolate is made from the seed of the cacao tree. It is one of the best antioxidant rich foods for a good health.
These compounds help to give impressive health benefits, like less inflammation and reduced risk of heart issues.
Since dark chocolates contain some calories and moderate amounts of sugar. Therefore, eat them in balance to reap the benefits without overdosing on sugar and calories.
Beetroot :
Beetroots are a rich source of antioxidant betalains. It is known to protect the body against a variety of diseases. It contains certain vitamins, minerals, protein, and soluble fibre. The green leaves of beetroot are rich in vitamin C, calcium, iron and magnesium.
You can eat beetroot raw in a salad or cooked with the skin on to retain all the nutrients in it.
Broccoli :
This green vegetable is a storehouse of a variety of vitamins, such as C, K and A. In addition to them, it has fibre, minerals, and protein.
Try to add broccoli into your meals at least four times a week. When you cook broccoli too much, the antioxidant capacity gets destroyed. Hence, the best way is to steam the broccoli and have it.
Beans :
Beans are a great source of compounds called flavonoids which act as the best antioxidant supplement. Both red and black beans have high antioxidant levels. All types of beans are high in fibre, which can help to keep your bowel movements regular.
Most beans offer an amazing package of nutrients including vitamins, minerals, and protein.
Raisins :
In case you're looking to load up on antioxidants, have a handful of raisins. This is because dark raisins are packed with compounds which are an energy booster.
Just sprinkle them on your breakfast oats, add them in a salad or blend some with a smoothie.
Tomatoes :
Juicy tomatoes are a rich source of three types of antioxidants – lycopene, vitamin C and A.
It is seen that vitamin C is one of the most potent kinds of antioxidants which you can get from vegetables and fruits. The lycopene present in tomatoes is well absorbed when cooked.
Walnuts :
Most of the nuts are super healthy and that is why experts recommend having at least a handful of nuts in routine.
Walnuts are cholesterol free, low in sodium and rich in antioxidants.
Spinach :
It is another one of the antioxidant rich foods. The beta-carotene of it is known for anti-aging, anti-cancer, and heart-protecting properties. Apart from this, spinach contains vitamins and certain minerals. It is packed with dietary fibre and is low in calories.
Try to eat one cup of spinach in routine. You can add it to your salads, smoothies, sandwiches, juices, stir-fries and main dishes.
Kale :
Kale or green leafy cabbage is loaded with vitamins A, B, C and K. Along with this, it contains dietary fibre, minerals, and protein.
You can add it to your diet by making kale chips, or use the leaves in smoothies, salads or soups.
Strawberries :
Strawberries are a good source of antioxidants which help to give protection against heart problems. They are a hub of vitamins B, C and K, and certain minerals. In addition to this, they have high water content and a low amount of calories.
Thus, eat a handful of ripe strawberries in routine as a healthy snack to reap the antioxidant benefits. Another option is to add a few strawberries to your milkshake, smoothie, fruit salad or ice cream.
So, these are some of the best foods which are a rich source of antioxidants. Now that you know that antioxidants are important for your body, make sure to include these foods in your diet. Doing this will help you lead a healthy life!

| Not now. Corruption spreads. In our city. In our hearts. Only I remain pure, a beacon against the darkness!
— The Archon to Death,
Archon Lucien is a powerful Angel, leader of the Scriptorium, infused with a glowing golden light, but bound to the angelic realm of Lostlight, and unable to go any farther than the Crystal Spire. The Archon is no diplomat and is battle hardened from the countless eons of war against demons, and more recently the corruption that has befallen his own people. He is the guardian of the half of the key to the Well of Souls that was entrusted to the angels of the First Kingdom.
Darksiders II
Cleansing the realm
| Out of the shadows and into the light. I see you Horseman... the things you have done, the lives you have ended. I know why you are here.
— The Archon to Death when they first meet.
Death met the Archon at the peak of the Crystal Spire as he was looking at a pool displaying Abaddon's visage. The Archon knew why Death had come to Lostlight, and knew that he sought the Well of Souls. The Archon guarded the angelic key to the Well, but would not give up the key until Lostlight was cleansed of Corruption and claimed it was stored within the unreachable Ivory Citadel. Thus he told the Nephilim to go to Earth to retrieve the Rod of Arafel, a holy artifact with the power to clear a path to the Ivory Citadel. After Death returned from Earth with the rod, the Archon used it to clear the corruption around the Citadel, he then advised Death seek the Scribe, who might be able to help the Horseman. The angel provided the Nephilim with an Ortho to access the Citadel.
The Truth revealed
| May the light of all that is holy destroy you!
— The Archon to Death before he attacks him
After traveling to the Ivory Citadel and defeating Jamaerah, Death learned from the once corrupted scribe that it had been the Archon that had brought Corruption to the realm, having gone mad after discovering the truth about Abaddon and slaughtering many angels while proclaiming his own purity, holding the angelic key to himself. After learning this, the Horseman returned to the Crystal Spire to confront the Archon, who was watching a vision of the Destroyer speaking in the pool. Death demanded the key, but the Archon refused and attacked the Horseman with the Rod of Arafel. The Archon, now visibly corrupted, sent the Nephilim to a distant platform where they did battle. Despite his skill and the power of the Rod of Arafel, Death was able to kill the Archon and take his key to the Well of Souls.
The Archon can be described as quite proud and arrogant, as he views himself as the only being left pure in Lostlight. However, he was touched by Corruption too and lost his sanity.
- Corruption Infusion: The Archon had been secretly corrupted at an unknown time and it never manifested until his fight with Death; all of his abilities have been infused with corruption.
- Light Manipulation: As a high ranking angel of Heaven, the Archon utilized the light endowed within himself as a means of attack such as projectiles or emitting light around himself, and the Rod of Arafel only made his powers over light even stronger.
- Photoportation: The Archon has the ability to teleport from one location to another in the form of light-based energies.
- Wing Manifestation: After his first two wings are torn off, he grows fleshy, decayed wings in their place.
- Flight: Naturally, as an angel, the Archon has the ability to fly via his wings, however he temporarily loses this ability when his wings are ripped off by Death during their battle. However, he was able to quickly regain his power of flight by generating black, fleshly, decayed wings out of the corruption that has infected him (though these wings wer more bat-like in their appearence instead of being feathered).
Phase 1
The Archon utilizes the Rod of Arafel along with corruption in order to combat. Dodge roll in order to avoid the waves of corruption that he sends out, and when he stops in between close in to attack. When he takes to air he'll place a shield around himself and send out waves of corruption, simply evade these. During his air time Archon will, from time to time, charge up the rod to unleash a large wave of corruption, but you can use Death Grip to bring yourself closer to attack him while he charges. Also be careful when attacking him directly because he'll quickly put up a damaging shield after blocking your attacks with the rod. After the Archon sustains damage he'll fall to the ground and an action prompt will appear over him, which results in cutting his wings off and moving on to phase 2.
Phase 2
With his wings gone Archon will walk or teleport to traverse the battle ground. On occasion he'll float up and slam down with the rod to unleash a large wave of corruption. Use the strategy from phase 1 and soon you'll move on to phase 3.
Phase 3
Archon can fly once more thanks to the new wings given to him by corruption. He will at times teleport outside the battle ground and charge at you, dodge roll to avoid it, or risk being grabbed and slammed to the ground. Dodge his attacks and attack between and use Death Grip or Murder to get him in the air, and after some time an action prompt will appear, activate it and watch as Death finishes off The Archon.
- Archon is a greek word that means ruler or lord, meaning that The Archon may be Lostlight's ruler. As it stands, he is clearly a figure of high authority within the angelic community.
- Another angel referred to as Archon Hestus was the one that lost the Rod of Arafel on Earth, suggesting that Archon is a title given to numerous angels.
- During one of the conversations Death has with Nathaniel it is revealed that the Archon's name is Lucien.
- The Archon is also one of the handful of angels with feathered wings. The others being Abaddon, Jamaerah, Nathaniel and Azrael. All powerful angels in their own right.
- The Archon has the highest number of wings seen on an angel thus far.
- The Archon is the first boss for which a horseman first performs a task only to fight him later.
- His quotes while fighting Death might imply that an Archon is some sort of Angel battlepriest. The probablity is further strengthened when Uriel tells Death that the Archon Hestus took the Rod of Arafel (an angelic holy artifact) and lead his troops into battle with its puryfying light to guide them.

Well… In the words of Sandor Clegane, f*ck me sideways.
Leave it to Game of Thrones to deliver a big second-to-last episode of the season that is simultaneously utterly predictable, intensely satisfying AND majorly frustrating. We got to see some insane action, deeply emotional scenes, an ICE DRAGON for f*ck's sake…
But also gaping plot holes, the usual wonky timelines we've come to expect lately, bad decisions, worse advice, and two fan favorites who may or may not be regressing to their former annoying selves.
You know it's going to be a long, rambling post when the opening paragraphs merit not one, but two f*cks. Suffice it to say there's a lot to unravel, so here goes nothing:

Kari Ferrell teaches third grade at Lakeview Elementary School, where she has been since 2007. Aside from previously teaching first and second grade, she also taught at Friendship Christian School in Wilson County.
Ferrell, who has been teaching for 26 years, got her degree in elementary education from Middle Tennessee State University and her master's degree in literature and reading.
Because her husband was in the military and they moved around a lot, she has taught in six different states. However, she said that Mt. Juliet is their home, and she couldn't ask for anything better than teaching at Lakeview.
"It's a great school. We support each other, the teachers support each other, the kids," she said. "It's a good environment. You can tell that we love our kids."
Ferrell said her passion is teaching reading to her students.
"I love to teach kids to read," she said. "When they start reading, and you see that light bulb come on and you see a whole world open up to them, that is the best."
She said when they learn to read, their world begins to open up and they can learn more about other subjects.
She said since being at Lakeview, one of the greatest things she has experienced has been when her previous students, many now in high school, tell her what they are up to and share their life with her.
"I keep up with my kids because I think it's so important as a teacher to form relationships with those kids in your classroom," Ferrell said. "We don't just teach reading and writing, we teach the whole child."
Something that Lakeview does is teaching students to have a growth mindset where they know it is OK to make mistakes because they can learn from them.
"I don't want them to be afraid of failure because we all have failures," she said. "We learn from that and we keep going, and we set goals for ourselves."
Ferrell said it is truly an honor to be named Lakeview's Teacher of the Year, especially because her peers are the ones who chose her to represent the school.
"It makes you feel so good to know that the other teachers want you to be Teacher of the Year," she said. "It's such an honor. It's really been a fun experience."
"As all teachers," Ferrell said, "I truly feel like it's such a blessing to be given these little kids and prepare them for the future."

When Pioneer first launched their line of Android Auto compatible head units, the cheapest one which is the AVH 4100NEX, was priced at about $800. Now just a few months later, it's dropped down to just $544.89 over on Amazon. Which is a pretty good deal, if I say so myself. I have this unit for all of about 24 hours now, and so far I'm pretty impressed. Not only does it do Android Auto, but you also get HD radio as well as Bluetooth and a slew of other features. If you've been wanting a new stereo in your car, then this is a good one to pick up.
You can get the Pioneer AVH 4100NEX right now from Amazon for just $544.89.
