We get it. When people think of honeymoons they think of relaxing by a pool with a cocktail in their hand sleeping in the sun. However, there is more to life than your standard getaway. We have compiled a list of Ten Unusual Honeymoon Destinations that you have probably not thought of. We think these are awesome ideas, if you agree or think we have missed one, please leave us a comment below telling us so!
Well, this is one is amazing! You get to stay in the jungle….in a plane! Your hotel room is a 1965 vintage 1965 Boing 727 plane. With amazing views of the turquoise water and the plane itself looking just as beautiful fault this novelty destination. This Costa Rican secret deserves to be found out.
You arrive by boat (just like James Bond!) which leaves from Portsmouth, which is awesome! You will be greeted when you dock and then shown around the Fort. You can relax in the heated pool watching all of the boats and ships pass you by as you unwind off the mainland. This is a great escape and has enough to keep you busy, if you want to that is!
Have you ever thought to yourself "You know what, I want to stay in a boot for my honeymoon"? No? Well, we haven't either. But this unique B&B is in New Zealand surrounded by lush green gardens and is utterly tranquil. If you want a honeymoon you won't get bored of talking about, this is one to consider!
If you are slightly weird and/or obsessed with Vampires than what can be better than this for a honeymoon destination? Bran Castle is where Bran Stoker based his mythical (we hope) creature living. We don't think it would be a relaxing break, but if you do, pack your bags and head to Transylvania.
Have the rare opportunity to work closely with novice monks in a temple school in Laos; learn about Lao culture, history, food, religion and language; visit local sights; enjoy a weekend break on the banks of the Mekong River. Volunteering on this project you will teach English to these students, improving the quality of their education which is really fascinating and rewarding.
There is way more to this country than you see on the news. Following in the footsteps of Marco Polo and trek the foothills of the Hindu Kush, you'll visit the famous mountain caves of Bamiyan, the breath-taking lakes at Band-e Amir, the historical northern towns of Mazar-e Sharif and Balkh, as well as the famous Panjshir Valley.
Don't have the time for a long holiday? You'll leave the airport on a snowmobile, sample the local cuisine in the heart Lapland surrounded by frozen lakes and snowy scenes, learn the art of snowshoeing and a husky sled ride, before taking another ride on the snowmobile to catch the flight home.
Not your usual NYC trip. This is to stay on the beach that you have probably never heard of! Top sandy spots include Coney Island in Brooklyn, which is also home to a famous boardwalk and funfair; Rockaway Beach in Queens, which is popular among surfers; and Orchard Beach within Pelham Bay Park in the Bronx. Forget the heavy winter coat and mittens and get your mankini out of the closet.
9. Machu Picchu- Belmond Lodge
This one is definitely unique. You will be welcomed to the breath-taking Lodge by the friendly and professional staff. All the rooms have the most picturesque views and the Lodge is approximately 50 metres from the entrance gate to Machu Picchu, so you are in the perfect location. Despite having very little competition for places to stay the team do not take their foot off the gas and provide a first class service to everyone who enters their doors.
You will know this place for the 1947 crash landing that is still being talked about. Something landed and the military wont tell you what it is! The warm climate and chance to see mysterious object fly through the air puts New Mexico on our list. You can visit the International UFO Museum & Research Center which will bring your imagination to life.

About the Chef
From a young age, Debra Ann Murray has been passionate about food and cooking. Growing up in rural New Hampshire, Debra's family tended a large annual garden which fed them throughout the year. In the spring, she would help collect sap to make maple syrup. Debra describes the experience, "I thought my Grandmother was a magician. No matter what we brought her from our gathering - whether berries, grapes, or things from the garden - she would transform them into the most delicious meal or baked goods. You could just feel the love that came from everything she made."
Over the following decades, Debra's passion for cooking and hospitality would grow. She would work in her family's sandwich shop, at catering companies and in restaurants and bars. Eventually, Debra took a job as a food stylist at a TV network. Working behind the scenes, she prepared meals for several on-air guests and high-profile personalities. The celebrities on the network took note of Debra's talents and hired her as their assistants and stylists.
Stepping out from behind the scenes, she soon took center stage, working side-by-side with her high-profile partners. As her career progressed, she authored nine cookbooks and began hosting shows. In 2013, Debra joined ShopHQ where she presents and demonstrates superior-quality kitchen products.

You're in a crunch to meet a looming deadline. A couple of your key staff are unexpectedly absent. It's becoming apparent that you're going to need some outside help if you're going to deliver that priority project. You know exactly the person you need to make it happen.
You've contracted with her before; you're familiar with her work, she's familiar with your organization. She's reliable, smart, a great writer and she delivers. You get her under contract and you know there will be no need for elaborate instructions or a painful learning curve. You know that she can come in and get it done with minimal fuss. It's as simple as calling your administration group and getting a contract in place…or is it?
You don't always have to solicit bids and run a competitive process. Issuing a sole-source contract under $25,000 is allowed under the federal contracting policy. So why all the fuss over a legitimate, permissible contracting procedure?
Sole-source contracting is one of the main issues I hear about. And I've recently been getting an increasing number of cases of alleged improper sole-source contracts. Through the work we've done looking into these cases, we have found some sound management practices for managers to consider.
Keep these in mind to mitigate your, and your deputy head's, risks the next time you're considering issuing a sole-source contract under $25K:
- Document your needs. Be specific, explicit and take the time to develop expected deliverables and performance indicators; ask yourself, "When this contract is completed what outcome(s) do I expect and by when?"
- Be realistic about time and cost. You want to avoid having to amend or issue a second contract to the same supplier because the cost crept over the $25K threshold or it took longer to complete the work…or both.
- Involve contracting staff early in the process. They can help you; keep them up to speed.
- Use standing offers. SOs are pre-competed. You can also use supply arrangements (SAs), which are lists of pre-qualified suppliers.
- If SOs or SAs are not available, use the needs document you developed and contact at least three suppliers available to do the work using:
- Request for quotations;
- Telephone buys;
- Invitation to tenders.
- Once you've made the decision to direct your contract, put a note to file explaining why the:
- contract was not competed;
- contract is being directed to a particular supplier;
- price you agreed to is considered fair and reasonable in the absence of competition.
- Don't allow work to start before the contract is in place.
- Monitor the work.
- Keep contracting staff up-to-date on how the work is going. They need to know about potential cost or time overruns as well as the supplier's ability to deliver.
Once the work is completed take the time to formally assess the contractor's performance against those expected deliverables and performance indicators you developed. Send a copy to your contracting staff and slip one into your file.
Be sure to confirm the accuracy of the contract amount and contract description for pro-active disclosure reports.
We've also seen departments that employ progressive, precautionary techniques such as:
- Requiring sole source contract reports to be produced on a regular basis for review by the management committee or the procurement review committee;
- Having an active procurement review committee regularly monitoring the use of sole source contracts.
- Providing the procurement review committee with sole source risk indicators such as:
- Contract splitting including:
- Similar contracts funded by the same "cost" or "fund" center;
- Contracts having matching, similar or related descriptions;
- Number of contracts meeting above criteria in a defined period (yearly, or a period suited to the goods/services being monitored);
- Total value of contracts meeting the preceding three criteria exceeding delegated financial authorities.
- Clustering of contracts near delegated financial authority thresholds.
- Amendments that require time extensions or financial modification.
- Repetitive contracts, including the number of contracts per supplier over a defined period of time.
- Requiring senior management or procurement review committee approval for sole source contract time/cost extensions or repeat contract(s) with the same supplier.
Bottom line? Sole-source contracts under $25K are allowed under the contracting policy…just remember what they taught you at that procurement course you took not so long ago.

The porcelain house and the charm of Chinese porcelain
publisher: Miss Wang
Time: 2017-12-14
: Have you ever thought of making a house with porcelain?Chifeng Tianjin porcelain house is a decoration made with pieces of Antique French mansion, personally designed by porcelain house owner Zhang Lianzhi.
Chifeng Tianjin
house is a decoration made with pieces of Antique French mansion, personally designed by
house owner Zhang Lianzhi.He used his collection of ancient porcelain, marble stone, crystal stone and agate, and tens of thousands of tiles such as decoration materials, so that western style gorgeous change, put on Chinese coat, become antique, precious materials but also let the house is very valuable. The perfect combination of Oriental and classical works of art with a myriad talents Chinese western architecture are revealed in the designer grand conception and planning is a must. The porcelain house is located at No. 72, Chifeng Road, peace zone, Tianjin.
house on the top floor with a total of five, a 4 storey building behind the bar, both sides have a more than 200 square meter penthouse, building area of nearly four thousand square meters. A house with more than 4000 pieces of ancient porcelain, more than 400 pieces of white marble stone, more than 40 tons of crystal stone and agate, more than 700000000 porcelain pieces decorated. Zhang Lianzhi, the master and chief designer of the porcelain house, said he wanted to let the Chinese and overseas people pay attention to Chinese culture through this building, so that we could realize the charm of Chinese porcelain. In his view, the porcelain house is not only a building with the following, but more of a cultural symbol.
The price of a porcelain house is so high, Zhang Lianzhi says he can't even estimate it himself. From the start date, has spent about statistics: more than 4000 pieces of ancient porcelain, more than 400 pieces of white marble stone and more than 20 tons of crystal stone and agate, nearly everywhere Porcelain Cat pillow, more than 300 age range, size of a lion. Use tiles too many to count a modern porcelain, no, including five Jun, Ru kilns porcelain. Porcelain covering all historical periods, with the Jin Dynasty celadon, Longquan porcelain, pottery and porcelains, Qing Dynasty, Yuan Ming blue and white color each time the fine.
house elements of traditional elements and has Chinese cultural flavor skillfully blend together, such as: the wall is "Peace Wall", with the size of the porcelain paste, take a homonym of bottle wall to ann. Stone statues, white marble stone at the proper time and form interesting combinations of tiles, represents (homophonic "stone") Every dog has his day.
The two floor roof on both sides stood a vivid dragon and Phoenix, this is the "dragon and phoenix". Almost every detail and every detail contains its particular flavor. Even the outside of the drainage pipe, also with crystal and Ming and Qing
cat pillow package, can not see the original.
Apart from the
, white marble stone, porcelain house there is a group of cultural relics can not be ignored, that is the size ranging from more than 300 lions, they in accordance with their respective size were held in every corner of China house. Outside the walls of the door, is a pair of stone lions of the Ming Dynasty, nearly one meter high, exquisite workmanship, binbian hair Cecil visible. Push through the fence, tile paved courtyard, through the white marble stone stone steps, a dark green porcelain lion Ying door standing the end of the Ming dynasty. It is said that the porcelain lion once a pair, a gang in Duan Qirui Palace station. Now, another one in the war only the death of a beauty, only solitary. On top of all corners of the figure, or sky chosho, or bow meditation, shapes. These stone lions spanned the Eastern Han, Tang, song and Qing Dynasties, each of which was of great value.
In the courtyard,
house items, just carry out one, there will be hundreds of years of history, two gold cap tube, who saw the scene, shows its age. Staircase handrails are used with the bottom of the bowl is composed mostly of kiln, ubiquitous "Ming Longqing years", "Ming Dynasty Wanli year" inscribed. Zhang Lianzhi is using such a big hand to let modern people talk to history.
The house is hanging on the wall, artisans used
pieces into a collage of famous paintings of Tang Dynasty at all times and in all countries, such as the five Niutu ", the Song Dynasty" ancient rocks map ",the Yuan Dynasty" Eagle Song map ", each floor has a width ranging from four to five, From Fu Mi to Beihong Xu, from" Dao Lian map "to" Monalisa ", this is not the only one.
One of the most prominent is the "China" pattern that is deliberately spelled out of it, and the "love My China", the Red Pentagram, and so on are also used by the crystal.
The top of the house with hundreds of thousands of pieces of
porcelain pieces inlaid into a 768 meters long relief dragon.
Zhang Lianzhi especially liked the feeling of flowing curves, so he communicated with the construction craftsmen, and asked every part of the porcelain house to have rhythm and life like music. One of the words he often says is, "as long as the lines are alive, they are right." "Under such a request, a unique building with a musical rhythm has been formed. When a visitor looks at a close range, it seems to be able to feel the rhythm of the music that is hidden. The smooth lines in the wall design is remarkable, the wall more than ten meter, a total of more than 630 vases, and mostly in the yuan blue and white dominated. The size of the porcelain bottle as will be marching soldiers, listen to the general arrangement of the station in their most desired position.

First Book on Navajo Masculinity Explores Changes & Identity of Navajo Men
ALBUQUERQUE — From the creation of the first Navajo (Diné) man and each one that followed had defined roles and responsibilities to continue Diné life. But with contact with the first non-Indigenous person, the male Diné's life would transform drastically, from language to culture to a sense of identity.
Today's Diné man has many definitions of himself — with some saying that their way of life is eroding and with others stating not much has changed. Peter Walker says the jaded history between the United States and the Diné continues to linger. "I think our people are still recovering from this horrible history," Walker says. "I think it can be difficult sometimes as a Diné man to keep our heads up in the face of the outside world and all the internal problems the Diné nation faces. I think it may be easy to escape from it all through alcohol or drugs, or adopting the ways of non-Natives to gain material wealth or prosperity. We have to adopt some of those ways, but we also can't forget who we are or where we come from."
A new book, "Diné Masculinities: Conceptualizations and Reflections" (Create Space Independent Publishing Platform, 2013), explores these changes and how colonization has impacted Navajo men. The first book published on the subject, "Diné Masculinities" bring together 30 perspectives of Diné men ages 24 to 70 from diverse backgrounds, including education, sexual orientation, religion and residency, as they discuss their upbringing and explanations of what it means to be a Diné male.
Starting from the creation of the First Man and First Woman, author Lloyd L. Lee, Ph.D., explains traditional male roles and responsibilities, including the male puberty ceremony, which is practiced less today.
Dr. Lee is an Assistant Professor at the University of New Mexico's Native American Studies Department. A citizen of the Navajo Nation, Dr. Lee is of the Kinyaa'áanii (Towering House) clan, born for Tl'ááschí'í (Red Bottom).
Male puberty ceremonies are more intimate, with initiation done with immediate and a few extended male family members, where as the female ceremony, the kinaaldá, is communal. With the lack of knowledge in these ceremonies and the influence of modern American society, interpretations of what it means to be a man, a Diné man, vary.
Using research exploring American masculinity where American men express manhood through sports, military service or violence, Lee discovered some Diné males also embraced those concepts in identifying their manhood. But while the concepts of how to become a man varies, each person universally said their caring roles and responsibilities to their families whether married or unmarried were a big part of being a Diné man. Although all worried about the Navajo way of life diminishing, they also had hope for the future of the Navajo Nation

General Pest Treatments
& Termite Management Systems
Termite Management Systems are a critical preventative maintenance of any home. Unfortunately, termites are a fact of life, regardless of the construction type of the property. Queensland's sub-tropical climate means termites are prevalent in almost every yard, with ample food sources including timber structures, dead trees and plants in the soil.
Other services include:
- Get your property checked for termites.
- Termite treatments and barriers.
Let Us Get Rid Of
Termites & Pests For You
APM offer a wide range of pest treatments and pest control solutions. All of our treatments are home treatments; one of our guys will come round and treat your home for the pest(s) that are causing you issues.
All of our treatments come with warranties, the warranty periods vary depending on which treatment you get so make sure you check.
Our treatments are designed to get rid of pests that are in your home and keep them away for a designated warranty period. But the treatments work best when used alongside pest prevention measures that deter pests from your home.
Place your order, and our team will get back to you with to book an appointment for the treatment.
APM's Timber Pest Control and Termite Services
If you have noticed any of the warning signs, contact APM Solutions today for a quote on our termite inspections or timber pest control services. The longer the problem goes unresolved, the more extensive and expensive the damage will be to fix. We recommend that homes do a timber pest control once a year to see the best results. If during an inspection we do find termites or other pests such as borers and fungi present, our pest inspector can provide the best solutions to help prevent any further damage. This may include the installation of a termite barrier.
Termite Barriers
A termite barrier is a chemical barrier around the exterior of your home that prevents termites from entering your home but also eradicates the colony through a slow-releasing formula. While deadly to termites, a chemical termite barrier is completely safe for humans, pets and native animals. The damage termites and pests could potentially cause can cost tens of thousands of dollars to repair. If you notice any warning signs, it is crucial that you book an inspection today and resolve the problem before it gets any worse.

Chipola College, Tallahassee Community College, and nonmetropolitan industry leaders join with the Florida State University Information Use Management and Policy Institute and School of Library and Information Studies to examine the educational and career pathways of information technology (IT) technicians supporting broadband deployment in communities in Northwest Florida. The mixed methods research project investigates the region's broadband staffing needs to identify the roles of broadband technicians, education needed to develop the knowledge and skills to be successful in these roles, and the process to sustain long-lasting partnerships between educational and industry stakeholders. The pervasive nature of broadband indicates a need for IT/broadband workers who can handle a broad range of issues associated with the needs of commerce and communities in the region. In addition, the study conceptualizes and establishes the use of the term, nonmetropolitan, to describe communities that are adjacent to metro or urban areas and comprise a population of both rural and urban residents. The study deliverables include 1) a gap analysis that supports curriculum development; 2) creation of a network of nonmetropolitan stakeholders that includes employers, industries, community institutions, and technician educators; 3) an iterative curriculum/labor needs assessment that ensures depth and breadth of findings; 4) multiple faculty/industry workshops that deliver recommendations and solicit faculty/industry review of research findings; and 5) an array of activities that supports broad dissemination of the findings to inform local educators and industry, and engage all stakeholders in ongoing discussion. The research study contributes to a growing, though limited body of knowledge on the intersecting needs of IT technicians, educators, and employers in broadband technologies.

Rye Bread (redeemed)
March 15, 2012
Last year in preparation for St. Patrick's Day, I corned my first beef brisket. It was a smashing success, but the loaf of rye I made to sandwich the leftovers failed miserably. It took an entire year to return to this challenge, but when Caroline at Grow It , Cook It, Can It suggested baking bread for Cook It, 2012, I knew this was the loaf for me. So this year, with the beef corning in the fridge, I tried a new recipe for rye bread that turned out just as I hoped.
After scouring my many cookbooks, I settled on this recipe from the Cook's Illustrated Cookbook. This bread is moist and chewy with a pronounced flavor of rye and caraway. It includes two types of flour in perfect proportion to achieve the signature flavor of the rye and all purpose flour to supply the required gluten and keep it light. My family loved these loaves so much that they were devoured before I had a chance to stick one in the freezer for this upcoming weekend. This weekend, when I bake another batch, I will roll the dough into shorter loaves to make larger slices more appropriate for sandwiches. I also plan to toss in a cup of minced onion to flavor the bread.
Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread
January 29, 2012
My search for the perfect banana bread ended years ago. There are plenty of recipes out there, but none that fit my tall list of criteria. So many have a dead bland banana flavor, others are too dry, or full of overpowering seasoning. This recipe, which is my standby banana bread, is to my taste, the best. It has just the right amount of sweetness (not a lot), a crispy , crunchy, buttery crust, a moist bananay interior, and a delightful tang from the baking soda. Chunks of dark chocolate melt into the bread making it just a little more special.
This is why, though I attempted to give another recipe a try last weekend, I simply could not find another one worth baking. Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread, developed from years of tinkering, is the one for me. We ate this bread for dessert after a disappointing football game, the rest served as a happy surprise in my son's school lunch.

Forbidden Rice and Green Onion Hearth Bread
November 11, 2011
Last weekend I was fortunate enough to gather for a potluck with a fantastic group of fellow food lovers. We are all part of Food52, a fabulous online community of inspired home cooks and knew each virtually through viewing, cooking, and commenting on each other's recipes. The gathering celebrated the publication of the first Food52 cookbook, in which many of the party-goers had their own amazing recipes published. The cookbook is beautiful and I can not wait to cook my way through it!
Not surprisingly, we all had a lot in common, most notably our love of good food. The table was brimming with amazing dishes, most of them made from recipes found on Food52. It was difficult to decide what to bring, but I opted for fresh baked bread.
Forbidden Rice and Green Onion Hearth Bread is based on a recipe from Montana Culinary Students on Food52. The contrast in texture and color that the black rice brings the bread drew me in. Wild rice works as well, but Forbidden Rice sounds irresistibly tempting! The onion adds a deep savory quality and works beautifully with the aromatic rosemary. A hint of lemon zest adds a pleasant brightness to this hearty loaf. This bread will definitely become a regular in my baking rotation. I imagine that it would make great croutons as well, if you are able to resist the bread while fresh. This bread would also be a tremendous addition to the Thanksgiving table!

Sunflower Millet Bread, Egg Salad and Pickled Onions
April 26, 2011
Easter and the its accompanying sugar rush have past. Now I am left with the daunting question of what to do with three dozen hard-boiled eggs!?! Luckily, with the exception of my son, we all love eggs. My daughter was peeling them and eating them as she hunted, but of course that only took care of 2 or 3.
One of my favorite ways to prepare hard-boiled eggs is to make an egg salad. I happen to love egg salad, but admit that it can be somewhat bland at times. Sunflower Millet Bread is ideal for egg sandwiches, because it has so much flavor and crunchy texture. The millet toasts and pops in your mouth. It has a nutty flavor, as do the sunflower seeds. Topping the sandwich with pickled red onion adds a bright color contrast, as well as a tangy counterpoint to the egg.
I first fell in love with Sunflower Millet Bread when working at a natural food store in high school. This recipe is from The Greens Cookbook. Though it is almost completely based on whole wheat flour, it has a very open, light texture. The bread slices and toasts very well. I used the first loaf for egg sandwiches, then sliced and froze the second for breakfast toast in the coming weeks.
The Red Pickled Onions are also from The Greens Cookbook. They are very easy to make and take only a day to sit and cure. They are great with this sandwich, but also with sausages or any meal that you want to add a zippy condiment.

Oatmeal Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread
March 30, 2011
Whoever invented the peanut butter and jelly sandwich was a genius. What other meal takes only minutes to prepare, but is incredibly nutritious, and with any luck will inspire cheers from the happy and hungry youngsters (or more mature eaters) ready to devour their sandwich? This sandwich has saved the day millions of times for mothers and fathers around the world, myself included.
As with any meal, the quality of the product is dependent on the quality of the ingredients with which you start. In our house, PB & J stands for peanut butter and jam since the pantry is generally loaded with various homemade jams and very little jelly. Our favorite is berry jam, either blackberry (as pictured above), ollalie berry, or raspberry. The next layer is organic, natural peanut butter (surprisingly enough Costco makes a great one), and of course the bread.
Oatmeal Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread is my go-to slicing bread. In the summer when my kids and I hide from the world (and the grocery stores) in the Santa Cruz Mountains, this is the bread that feeds us between the weekly trips to town for provisions. It is very easy to put together and turns out beautifully every time. The bread is slightly sweet from the maple syrup which makes it perfect for peanut butter and jam sandwiches or even grilled cheese. The bread also toasts beautifully, so in the off-chance you have leftovers the next morning, it will taste great toasted and slathered in butter and jam or honey.
Oatmeal Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread
makes 1 loaf (enough for 6 sandwiches)
adapted from Bon Appetit
1 cup plus 2 Tablespoons warm water
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (divided)
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup old-fashioned oats
1 teaspoon salt
Mix warm water with yeast. Allow to sit 5 minutes while the yeast dissolves. Pour yeast mixture into a mixing bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients except for 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour. Mix until dough ball forms, then knead on a lightly floured board until dough in stretchy and supple. Add some of the reserved flour, 1 Tablespoon at a time, until the dough is soft, but not sticky.
Place dough ball in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a plate or plastic wrap. Let rise 1 1/2 hours in a warm place until it has doubled in bulk.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured board. Press into a 8-inch square. Roll the square into a log. Place log seam side down in a buttered 8 x 5 x 3 inch bread pan. Let rise 45 minutes until 1 1/2 inches higher than pan. (see picture)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 30-40 minutes until center registers 180 degrees. Cool 15 minutes, turn out on rack. Bread will slice most easily if you allow it to cool completely.

Fresh Herb Chevre
February 15, 2011
Last weekend, I took my first cooking class! It was a soft cheese making class taught by Mary Karlin, an expert in artisan cheese. It was such fun to spend a day with other hungry folks trying to expand our culinary repertoire. One of the cheeses we made was chevre. It is incredibly easy to make by simply adding culture to warm goat's milk and allowing the mixture to sit overnight so the curd can form. I'll admit my product wasn't exactly as I dreamed, it was a bit too dry and crumbly instead of creamy. Still, it was delicious.
I love the tangy creaminess of chevre. I often serve it as an appetizer with caramelized onion relish or pepper jelly. Another favorite preparation is simply rolling the log in fresh herbs, lemon zest, and ground pepper. It is the perfect last minute appetizer because it is quick, inexpensive, and delicious. It looks like something really special, even though it is incredibly easy to create.
Using fresh herbs for this recipe is crucial. Fortunately, I live in a climate where my garden provides fresh herbs year round. The following recipe is more of an idea and guideline than a recipe to strictly follow. The precise mixture of the herbs is not crucial, but I like half of the herb volume to be parsley and the other half to be more intense herbs like thyme, rosemary, oregano, and the lemon zest.
The Fresh Herb Chevre is delicious with grilled or toasted bread. I slice the bread, brush or spray it with olive oil, and then grill or broil until toasted. Guests serve themselves slices of the herb cheese on the toasted bread.
Fresh Herb Chevre
makes one herby loaf of goat cheese
1 8-ounce log of chevre
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
1 tablespoon minced fresh oregano
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon minced lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Mince herbs and zest. Mix thoroughly with black pepper. Roll chevre in herb mixture. Serve with toasted bread.

Weeknight No-Knead Bread
January 28, 2011
OK, so I finally tried it. I know I'm a little behind the times and most of you have already made or at least eaten the reputable "No-Knead Bread", but for me this was a first. Back in 2006, when New York Times published a variation of this recipe it created quite a fervor. Multiple friends shared their success with the bread, but I was home with a baby who was not yet mobile. I had nothing to do but bake bread, the other, more time-consuming way, by kneading it. Truly, I paid little heed to the recipe. Then later, when Cooks Illustrated published another version, I ignored it again. At that time we were blessed with bakery seconds delivered to our door each week from an amazing local bakery. Now that I am back to work, the kids are beyond mobile, and the free bread has long since stopped gracing our table, it was time to dig out this AMAZING recipe and give it a try.

In Nome, Alaska, the summer gold mining season roars to life – and it's the richest yet.
The miners are using new strategies, locations and equipment upgrades to get the most gold that has ever been taken out of the Bering Sea. Captain Shawn Pomrenke – the man they call 'Mr Gold' – is looking to stay on top of Nome's gold-mining heap. He hopes for a strong showing, needing capital to construct his multi-million-dollar mega-dredge.
But, he's feeling the pressure from Kenn Kerr and business partner Dave Young's 600-tonne Myrtle Irene, which dwarfs everything currently on the water.
Meanwhile, Emily Riedel fights to reclaim her position; with the elements against her she risks losing her entire dredge forever. And, coming off their best season ever, the Kellys return to the promising ground at The Bluff.
Armed with a new attitude, Kris is set to dominate. Time will tell whose approach will reap the biggest reward and land them at the top.

Students Studying Abroad
Automatic SHP enrollment
Cornell's annual Student Health Plan (SHP) enrollment and waiver process applies to students who will be studying outside the United States. Learn more about these requirements.
Insurance requirements for students abroad
Cornell requires students who are traveling abroad to be covered by an active health insurance policy throughout the duration of their study abroad experience, and any periods of travel before or after.
Your health care plan must:
- provide you with coverage for medically necessary care – not just emergency care – while abroad
- cover pre-existing conditions
- cover you in your host country and in other country where you might travel
- have a minimum benefit of at least $250,000 per year*
- provide inpatient and outpatient mental health coverage
*Note: If your health insurance in the US does not have an unlimited lifetime benefit, you should consider benefit limits higher than $250,000.
SHP & SHP+ members
Cornell's Student Health Plan (SHP) and Student Health Plan Plus (SHP+) meet the insurance requirements listed above. Please visit Using SHP Abroad and Using SHP+ Abroad for details about how to use your plan outside of the U.S.
Students with private insurance
Your should already have insurance coverage that meets the requirements above (per Cornell's annual insurance waiver process). However, please keep in mind that some of these approved insurance plans may decrease your coverage when you are overseas.
Please contact your insurance provider to verify that your level of coverage does not decrease when you are out of the country. If the level of coverage does decrease, you can ask your health insurance company whether you can purchase a rider to obtain the necessary level of coverage.
If your insurance company cannot provide you with the required level of coverage, you must obtain an additional policy to cover you while you are abroad. To provide an option, Cornell has negotiated a plan with GeoBlue that meets the required level of coverage. Cornell student travelers may enroll in and pay for coverage here.
It is important to note that if you purchase a supplemental study abroad health insurance plan, this plan does not replace your primary insurance; it works in conjunction with your primary insurance, so you must also maintain coverage under your primary insurance while you are abroad.
Note: Certain countries or programs may provide or require their own health insurance coverage. But in most cases, this coverage does not meet Cornell's requirements, so you may need to be covered by two or three policies while abroad.
Understand your plan:
Your copayments and out-of-pocket costs might be different when using your insurance plan abroad. Before you travel, be sure to research what your plan covers, what costs you are responsible for (especially those you are responsible for paying up front), and how to file a claim for reimbursement if necessary.
And finally, be sure to carry your health insurance card and contact information with you at all times.
Student visa application assistance
If you need proof of medical insurance coverage for your student visa application, please email us to request a Travel Letter.
Please contact us by phone, email, or – if you're in Ithaca – by stopping by our offices at Cornell Health.

You could toast muffins in the atmosphere of Òran Mór on Tuesday night as the crowd waited for
Edwyn Collins to take the Glasgow stage for the first time since suffering a brain haemorrhage in 2005.
Held in the upstairs auditorium adorned with Alasdair Gray's vibrant murals, this was something of a homecoming for Collins, who, though born in Edinburgh and now based in North London, was most associated with Glasgow during his time as frontman for soulful post-punkers Orange Juice.
The anticipation was tinged with apprehension however; after such a serious illness – documented in last September's Artworks Scotland programme – would Collins be well enough to make it through a 70-odd minute set?
After being helped on stage by his wife and manager Grace Maxwell, Collins and his band – which included the nimble fingered Roddy Frame on guitar – cranked into an exuberant Falling And Laughing, Orange Juice's 1980 debut single; proof enough that Collins had recovered sufficiently not just to deliver a perfunctory set, but one bulging with wit, sincerity and fun.
This was no nostalgia trip; early 1980s tracks such as Poor Old Soul, raucous closer Blue Boy and top ten hit Rip It Up were fresher than an ice bath, Girl Like You still sounded as exotic as it did in 1994 and One Is A Lonely Number, You'll Never Know and One Track Mind showed why his Home Again album was so acclaimed on its release last year. 'Gwan yersel!' a fan spouted. 'I will,' chuckled Collins. 'I'm going to!' We're not the only ones who'll second that.

Armakeggon Festival Lead Capture Page
The annual Armakeggon Festival has become a highlight of the bright, bold Brisbane social scene and every year iCreate has the fun task of helping make sure the word gets out and the punters get their tickets. It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it!
Our creative task combines building on the developed brand identity for the festival while at the same time making the lead capture page fresh and compelling. For 2016 it was all about bold, dynamic graphics that echo street art and edgy urban culture.
The landing page is a click through from an uber-creative video by Ride Free Media, so there also need to be a sense of consistency with the video when people land at the ticketing portal.
Launch Armakeggon Landing page
There were several key things that needed to be quickly and dramatically highlighted – the fact there would be 40-odd craft beers and spirits to sample. The general sense of occasion and the vibe of the event, and the surrounding entertainment and incentives were displayed in a mix of graphics, text and images from prior festivals.
Each section of the lead capture page ends with a call to action that clicks through to ticket purchase, and to really heighten the air of urgency around booking, iCreate's digital team coded a nifty countdown widget that displayed on the page and made it clear there was a limited opportunity to buy tickets.
A notification bar (or Hello bar) was added to the top of the page. This let users know they could buy discounted early-bird tickets until a certain date. This device proved very successful in increasing conversions and was the most clicked-on call-to-action element on the page.
User experience
The web presence is high on visual impact but essentially low-fuss. It loaded easily across all devices and browsers, and could be shared easily on social media.
Being easy to navigate made it very much a cut-to-the-chase experience, while still giving enough visual stimulation to give site visitors an idea of what to expect and why the event is a must-attend.
The landing page contributed to a very successful campaign. The event was sold out. A much larger porportion of tickets were pre-sales than the year before. This gave the organisers a clearer idea of the total number of attendees. This meant he client was able to plan better, and ensure a smooth-running, successful event that was enjoyed by call (including several iCreate staff).

Jurassic Bark was one of the standout classics from the show's original run. Episodes featuring Fry's past are always an interesting set up, but this one knocked it out of the park with some great running gags and Bender sticking to the right side of offensive.
It's also most-certainly the episode with the most emotion, but if the original idea had been done, it could have been even more depressing. Before it was Fry's dog was fossilised, the episode was meant to focus on Fry's mother. That's right, instead of Seymour growing old missing Fry, it would be his mum (who was eventually written as distant and football obsessed).
Obviously, the writers realised that might push the depression a bit too far and decided to tone it back a little (not by much really though).

OCTOBER heralds the real start of spring and one of the busiest times of the year for gardeners.
What to do first? Concentrate on the summer floral display or prune shrubs to keep under control and encourage more flowers?
This is the recommended month to trim conifers, but be sure not to cut into the older wood, as they don't grow back from there. As with conifer hedges and all hedges, trim the top of the hedge narrower than the base to allow the sun to reach all parts of the plant.
As the spring bulbs finish flowering, it's time to plant summer and autumn flowering bulbs and annuals, which should be planted without delay. Improve the soil by digging in home compost or rotted leaves, both of which help to retain moisture in summer.
From planting time to full flowering usually takes six to eight weeks. After planting, water in with an organic seaweed plant nutrient. Apply this every few weeks to encourage good root growth and more flowers.
WHILE it's tempting to wait until they are in flower, I'd suggest planting clematis now.
With today's labels it's easy to see the colours and, by planting now, the roots will be well established before the heat of summer.
Here are a few growing hints to get them off to a good start:
- Plant clematis with the roots in the shade and the stems in the sun, if possible. Alternatively, shade the root zone with a large, old tile to keep the roots cool and moist in the summer.
- New shoots in our garden are already taking off, growing up to 30cm a day, as the warmer weather combines with plenty of moisture in the soil. It's important to tie new shoots to a frame or lattice as they grow, otherwise they will quickly get out of hand and start tangling with other shrubs in the garden.
- Use Velcro tape to prevent damage to the soft, new shoots. About the same width as sticky tape, this is a better alternative than using the green, plastic-covered wire that can ring-bark stems, even on thick stems of roses.
- It's unnecessary to wait until the leaves of spring bulbs die before cutting them back. This can be done to keep the garden looking tidy four to six weeks after flowering.
- Plant seedlings of lettuce, broccoli and cabbage and seeds of French beans.
- Encourage children into gardening by sowing sunflower seeds. Dwarf varieties can be grown in containers.
- Plant peonies, the princess of flowers, without delay in a sunny spot.
- The Horticultural Society of Canberra's popular Rhododendron and Azalea Show, featuring spectacular floral displays, floral art and the ever popular plant stall, will be held at the Wesley Church Centre, National Circuit, Forrest, on the weekend of October 22-23 (noon-5pm, Saturday and 11.30am-3.45pm, Sunday). Entry by donation. Refreshments available.

I read an article featuring celebrities asking Courtney Love… 20 questions. As a child of the Grunge era, I love reading anything about it. Nirvana was everything and Kurt Cobain was a fascination for everyone.
How these celebrities were chosen to ask her a question appears to be based on their history together, as I remember her knowing them all as friends, musical collaborators, back in the day, etc. But she also went to Liz Taylors Easter Party??
I never really thought of Courtney as an artist… she was always painted as a muse to Kurt. Until she started Hole, then she seemed like more than that. She always seemed to be a mess, a reinvention at times, but a larger than life mess who slept with a lot of interesting celebrities in highly drug induced scenarios. Turns out age has worked for her. She's fascinating in an artsy, rough-life but educated way…. Her answers ramble, full of unapologetic opinions, references to Baudelaire, and musings on old and new music, every kind approached with an open mind. Give it a read, "20 questions for Courtney Love, The Queen of Grunge"
All I'm saying is, interesting people are in short supply, and she is a force of nature and full of new and unexpected ideas. Give it a read. I'm going to pick up some Baudelaire… because now I'm curious.

Hi , first of all I'll give a trigger warning although I still read on even when I see that like a moth to the flame .
My anxiety seems to have made way for depression to rear its ugly head , my home life has been a constant source of stress for several years the main things being my daughter nearly dying from an overdose , my dog dying , my partners ill health and also being hospitalised from an overdose , I've now got into this mindset that if I go to work ( I work for myself ) or leave town somthing bad will happen which it regularly does , I tried cbt last year but that was when my partner took the overdose which just confirmed bad things happen when I'm out , I have no control over my life and each time I get a knock back it chips a little bit more of my hope away , my partner currently has pneumonia which she has several times a year things can go bad so quickly and she ends up in hospital, I feel selfish wanting to be out working and she doesn't want me hanging around watching over her like an undertaker, the situation is hopeless she can't help being ill and I can't stop worrying,
I've started to lose interest in any plans of getting better myself I keep picking up the leaflet for mental health referral but it seems pointless , the worst part right now is getting intrusive thoughts of suicide they pop in my head throughout the day and it scares the crap out of me if I use sharp knife I get visions of cutting my throat , when I'm driving on the motorway like today I get the urge to swerve into somthing and I keep closing my eyes while driving fast to see how long I dare keep them shut , the list is endless on places I see ways out , when things are going ok I see the beauty in things but it turns dark with my mood .
Sorry to offload this on here but I have no one I feel I could talk to about it so I'm keeping it all inside like a pressure cooker soon somthing has to give .
I'll make it clear I don't want to die I just want a break from the constant pressure and worries .
No real need to reply , take care all .

Bedford Harpur Square was packed with people on Thursday November 24th as BedfordBID declared: Christmas is unwrapped.
The critical date marked the start of late night seasonal shopping in the town and locked into the new national Black Friday promotions. The American idea has been taken up by UK retailers who want to capture shoppers as they collect their last monthly pay-cheque before Christmas actually arrives.
BedfordBID is on the case making sure families come into town for early shopping and keep coming back for all those Xmas Xtras.
The showcase included Storm Troopers Boogie Storm from Britain's Got Talent, Santa and his real reindeer and a sing-a-long with the Bedford Rock Choir.
"We have never seen so many people in the town centre on this special day. They were there from mid afternoon to meet Santa, take a look at the shops, see the Star Wars show and then go off to the river to see the fireworks, which are also sponsored by town centre businesses," said Christina Rowe Director of the BedfordBID.
All information about events in the town can be found on the BedfordBID website lovebedford.co.uk and there is plenty more to come.
