Welcome to the first editorial of 2012! We at Jellyneo hope you had a safe and happy festive season. Here's to another fantastic year full of fun, laughter, and lots of Neopets goodies!
Have you written an article about Mysterious Morphing Experiments? If so, where is it? ~ Wymble
We sure have! You can find out everything you ever wanted to know about Mysterious Morphing Experiments right here! You can find it under "Miscellaneous" on our Articles page.
Recently, I came back to Neopets after a few years away. A friend in real life asked me if I had any Secret Laboratory map pieces, and I said I did. I gave them to her and she said she'd give me the pieces back later as well as something in real life. Is that okay, or a freezable offence? If it is, I'll give her back the "thing" she gave me in real life. I'm just wondering. ~ anonymous
Don't accept real money (or arguably items) for on-site items or currency. If it was a gift for being a good friend (giving her the pieces as an act of kindness), that is okay, but if it was a Neopets-virtual-items-for-real-life-stuff sale, then give the item back.
A little tidbit: Treasure map pieces are used up when they are redeemed as a whole. You can buy more pieces through the Shop Wizard, though.
Lawyerbot note: Playing Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds games is not a way to make real money. It is against the Terms of Use to sell virtual pets, items, or accounts for real money. I would argue that money includes real life, tangible items. So don't do it. Ever.
You would listen to me, your fearless leader, wouldn't you?
Hey, Jen! If a person lent someone an item and that person lost it, would they have to pay the owner of the item back? Just wondering. :) ~ thefraggle
It really depends on a number of things. By "lost it" I assume you mean something like the Pant Devil stole it? In that case, the person who lost the item would not have to pay or replace the item unless a prior agreement was made (e.g., collateral). My tip to you, if you plan on lending items, is to always make a contingency plan! (Kind of a you break it, you bought it type of thing... well, more of a you lose it, you replace it if you want to get technical!)
Hi, Jen! I'll make it short. I want to change the e-mail of my main account. However, when I try to do it, it says that there are already 5 accounts with that e-mail. I have three side accounts with that e-mail. I deleted one side account, but it still says I have 5 accounts with the same e-mail. Why is that? Should I just contact support? Thank you very much. I made this plushie of you, you can take it. :3 *gives you the plushie* ~ anonymous
You can't actually "delete" your own Neopets account, you can only self-deactivate it. When you deactivate your Neopets account, the account still exists within the Neopets system and is still connected to the e-mail address you used to create it. If you want to make another account you will have to use a different e-mail address. (I love plushies, thank you very much!)
I was just wondering if you guys think it's creepy to stalk abandoned pets... Because my Usul's new owner seemed to think it was. Have you guys ever done it and what's your view? ~ trekkiechick
I think it's only natural to want to check up on pets you used to have on your account. I can understand how it could be perceived as creepy if you consistently stalk the pet and send the new owner lots of messages but if you just occasionally view the pet then I see nothing wrong with that! In fact, I've done that myself in the past!
Lawyerbot note: Make sure you know where to draw the line. Unwanted attention may be considered harassment and that is against the Neopets Terms of Use. Don't get yourself into trouble!
What petpet did Turmaculus used to be before... how do you say this without making this weird? ~ wolflovermoon
Before he ate a lot and grew to be big and strong? That would be the Turmac!
Poster child for reasons not to eat your greens.
Hi JN! I was wondering what a "clutch" situation is. Thank you! ~ anonymus
It's one of those situations where you need a handbag to keep your phone and lip gloss, but because of the occasion, it needs to be small and elegant. ...Oh, not that type of clutch? :P
This isn't exactly a Neopets question (unless I'm completely out of the loop on a new fad!), but why shouldn't we have a little Vocab 101, huh?! Clutch has a number of meanings, and in terms of a clutch situation, the meaning you're looking for is a pivotal or tense situation. People say things like, "She came through in the clutch" or "She is good in a clutch" meaning the person does well in tough situations.
I was looking at your account purge article and it said the username donna. So, I looked up her account knowing that it was very old. Thyassa, her Chia, had a trophy that said oldest on it. What does this mean? ~ anonymous
Donna is of course the co-creator of Neopets and her pet Thyassa is the second oldest Neopet. That is why the pet has the trophies (a silver and a bronze) with "oldest" on it! There is actually one pet older than Thyassa and that pet is HollyNoel!
How come when I look in the Item Database, there are two different versions of the Christmas Baby Blu? Thanks! ~ anonymous
That's because The Neopets Team created two of the Christmas Baby Blu items - one with old artwork and one with new art. Both items have different item IDs, which means you can purchase either version from other users. However, if you were to paint a Baby Blu Christmas today, you wouldn't get the old version but the new version instead.
Hi. I was playing Neopets on my iPhone and I saw that some of the prices for items in the auctions were in red. I had my theme set to Valentines. I don't know if that had anything to do with it, but I've never seen this before. One of them was a Woodland Elf Usuki for several million Neopoints. Does this usually happen? ~ anonymous
iPhones automatically recognise a string of 7+ numbers as a telephone number and make the string of numbers an active link, enabling you to click and initiate a call to that number. When using the Valentines site theme, links are coloured red - including the strings of numbers recognised as a telephone number by the iPhone!

I was wondering, is there any way I can get rid of the basic Neocash gift boxes? Frankly, they are annoying. I know they don't do anything to hurt me, but they're still annoying. ~ noahkim1234567890
Oh believe me, I know how annoying they are! Alas, there's no way to be rid of the Neocash gift boxes. You can, however, use the Quick Stock tool to move your Basic Gift Box into your Safety Deposit Box. Sure, it's no permanent fix, but at least it gets them out of your inventory!
Okay, so I have no items in my NP inventory, and yet the caption under the Aisha says I have one item in my inventory. Do the NC items count toward the total? And yet, I have 9 Basic Gift Boxes. I am so confused. ~ noahkim1234567890
Yes, Neocash items do count toward the total number of items in your inventory. They also "stack" which explains why you have 9 Basic Gift Boxes in your inventory yet the Aisha says you only have 1. Just to explain a bit further, you could have 10 items in your inventory: 7 Basic Gift Boxes and 3 Floating Tooth Faerie Dolls. The Aisha would say you have 2 items (counting 7 Basic Gift Boxes as 1 item and the 3 Floating Tooth Faerie Dolls as 1 item), even though you actually have 10 items total.
Hi JN! You have an awesome site! I have two questions. *clears throat* 1) My sister and I have two separate accounts on two separate emails. If I send my sister the Mysterious Valentines Card on Valentine's Day, is it allowed? Just being cautious for fear of being frozen. 2) If you get a site theme like that (you know, day-specific), do you keep it afterward? Give Rosie a hug for me and if this gets in, thanks! ~ ninjawolf23
Thank you very much, we love warm fuzzies! To answer your first question, that is allowed. The Neopets Team understands that whole families often play Neopets. Should they suspect you of any underhanded behaviour, they have a plethora of mystical powers at their disposal to determine whether or not you are cheating. You should have no problems sending A Mysterious Valentines Card to your sister on Valentine's Day.
In terms of your second question, if both of you do not have the Valentines Day site theme, sending the Card will unlock it for you and the recipient. Once you've sent (or received!) the Card, the site theme is unlocked and yours forever!
Is there a list of Daily Puzzle prizes here on JN? I'm curious as to what the prize was on December 25, 2011, since I didn't get to answer the Daily Puzzle that day. :( ~ anonymous
No, there isn't a list. We used to update a list each and every day, but the page got longer and longer and just too big. Can you imagine the size of it now, after over 4 years of the Daily Puzzle?! My brain can't even handle that math! As the person who updates the Daily Puzzle, I can, however, tell you that the prize for December 25, 2011 was 500 NP and a Spearmint Ribbon Candy.
5 times 4 ... carry the 2 ... *boom*
How do you work the Coconut Shy game? Is it random or what? ~ anonymous
The game is mostly random - it's a game of luck. There are no special techniques to knock down a coconut or make it explode if you do manage to hit it. Check out our Coconut Shy guide to pick up some tips and techniques to improve your aim and therefore your chances of winning! *fingers crossed*
I've noticed lately that on the guild and role-playing Neoboards, people have been spelling "vampire" and "werewolf" in various ways (like v a m p i r e), that appear as if they are trying to circumvent some sort of filter. I've been able to use these words just fine, without a warning thus far. My question is, is there a rule against vampires and werewolves in role-plays or at all? Or are these people just being silly? ~ sonicsega
If a new Twilight film comes out, the Neoboard filters might change so that "vampire" becomes "Xweetok" and "werewolf" becomes "Werelupe" ("v a m p i r e" would go through unfiltered). But currently, there are no extra filters; these people are just being silly, really. Even though certain non-Neopets related content is not allowed on the Message Boards (along with any other material Neopets deems inappropriate for the site), vampire and werewolf RPs are allowed. The key point is not to allow the RP to turn into anything romantic or allow it to become inappropriate. So long as you keep your RP clean, you should remain warning free.
I recently priced the Spiral Faellie Cake in your Item Database. When I looked on the Shop Wizard, the only price for the item was 75,000 NP. But right after I submitted the number to your database, the price went up by about 10,000 or 20,000! Could I get in trouble for this since those prices changed so fast? Thanks! ~ anonymous
Don't worry, you won't get in trouble. I just did a quick Shop Wizard search and found a number of the Spiral Faellie Cake ranging from about 70,000 NP to 99,999 NP. That item appears to be reasonably rare as it is an exclusive Rare Item Code prize - it's only natural that the price fluctuates rather quickly!
What do you guys think of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic? I'm a huge fan, but what about you guys? Also, if you guys are fans of the show, who is your favourite pony? ~ 1_doglefox
I am going to take it upon myself to answer this question on behalf of the entire staff of Jellyneo and without actually asking the other staffers' opinions. Actually, I think the following image more than answers all of your questions:
I was browsing some shops on Neopets, and I came across a World Challenge piece. I checked around JN, but I couldn't find any articles on WC pieces. So, my question is: What is the best experiment I can do for this year's science fair? Oh, wait a minute. Sorry, wrong question. Brain cramp! (I was doing my homework while I typed this.) Anyway, what are WC pieces all about? If you have a guide, can you point me in the right direction? And if you don't have a guide, do you plan on making one? Thanks if this gets answered! ~ ryukondrup
Personally, my favourite science fair project was growing things with different stimuli. You could do different soil depths, the effect of light (or different colours of light!), amount of water... the possibilities are endless!
Oops, that's not why we're here! There is an explanation of how the World Challenge works in an old JN editorial. We don't have a guide for it yet, unfortunately. It is on the to-do list, so do keep an eye out! I can't make any promises as to when though!
I can, however, point you in the direction of the World Challenge pieces - they are all listed right here!
Another year, another fundraiser...
Donating is by no means necessary, but is very much appreciated if you can afford to! All donations help keep Jellyneo 100% ad-free.

You don't have any saved vehicles!
Look for this link on your favorites:
Once you've saved some vehicles, you can view them here at any time.
The commercial segment is full of stylish, spacious vehicles with impressive capacities and features. The first example that springs to mind for many business owners is the 2018 Ford Transit Connect, which is offered as a Cargo Van or Wagon. While the Transit Connect excels in many areas, such as towing and hauling, comfort, and safety, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is a strong competitor. Available as a Cargo or Passenger Van, the Sprinter challenges the Transit Connect in virtually every category. Compare the Sprinter vs. Transit Connect and find out how the Sprinter always finds an advantage!Schedule a Test Drive
|2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500
|2018 Ford Transit Connect Cargo Van XL
|5,000 pounds
|Towing Capacity
|2,000 pounds
|3,501 pounds
|Payload Capacity
|1,470 pounds
|Daytime Running Lights
|Heated Rear Window
Built to accommodate your business's needs, the 2018 Ford Transit Connect Van towing capacity reaches up to 2,000 pounds. If you opt for the long wheelbase configuration, you'll enjoy 128.6 cubic feet of cargo space, as well as a payload capacity of 1,470 pounds. On the other hand, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Cargo Van with a standard roof and 144-inch wheelbase tows up to 5,000 pounds without breaking a sweat. The upfitting-friendly cargo area expands to a whopping 319.1 cubic feet, and can haul as much as 3,501 pounds. While the Transit Connect Van's capabilities max out at its long wheelbase trim, the Sprinter Cargo Van's payload and cargo area capacities only increase as you move up the line.
If you're in the business of transportation, chances are you're looking for a vehicle that seats large groups yet doesn't skimp on comfort features. Capable of seating six passengers, the 2018 Ford Transit Connect Titanium Wagon comes equipped with air conditioning, an AM/FM stereo, keyless entry, power windows and locks, privacy glass, and optional navigation. Offering double the seating capacity and all of the above features, the 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Passenger Van is a shuttling extraordinaire. What's more, the Sprinter Passenger Van includes a variety of standard and optional features not available on the Transit Connect Wagon, including a partition with sliding door package and heated front seats.
As a commercial vehicle, the 2018 Ford Transit Connect keeps the safety of you, your passengers, and cargo in mind. For enhanced protection, the Transit Connect Vans and Wagons feature anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control, a rack-and-pinion steering system, and an anti-theft system. As is typical of Mercedes-Benz, the Sprinter Vans cut no corners when it comes to safety. In addition to the above features, the Sprinter tacks on standard Daytime Running Lamps and a heated rear window. The Sprinter also offers the following optional safety systems – all of which are unavailable for the Transit Connect:
After comparing the Ford Transit Connect vs. Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Menifee and Lake Elsinore business owners know that opting for the Sprinter instead of the Transit Connect results in higher capacities and a plethora of exclusive features. Check out the Sprinter, and compare it to other top competitors like the Dodge ProMaster at Mercedes-Benz of Temecula.

Empathy stones
We can all find it difficult at times to talk about feelings or thoughts, particularly if they are negative. This activity helps people to express those feelings without vocalising them. Writing words, drawing colours or images onto stones and then throwing them away can be a cathartic release of negative feelings and thoughts which, left undealt with, might otherwise create health problems.

Earlier this year we supported Katherine Hathaway with her award-winning border at BBC Gardeners World Live Show.

The nature of sleep
In the 2017 State of Caring survey 7 in 10 unpaid carers said they found it difficult to get a good night's sleep as a result of caring.
Everyone occasionally has a bad night's sleep, it becomes a real health issue however when lack of proper sleep occurs on a regular basis. It can lead to issues such as poor concentration, depression and high blood pressure.
What are the causes of poor sleep?

does general motors (chevrolet, etc.) have hybrid cars?
Cool Ruth, thanks! Did I forget to mention I get an average of 60 MPG on the Ford C-Max Energi? With low gas prices, filling up is the least of my worries. More money to go skiing this winter!
Thanks for the important reminder that assuming something is so doesn't make it so. I kept hearing how expensive the hybrids are but now I realize I've based my outdated opinion on when they first came out many years ago. And it's never a matter of IF the gas prices are going to go up but when they're going up!

Mad #354 (Nick Meglin and John Ficarra) - Star Wars Macarena Issue - February 1997
The original Star Wars movie started a huge cultural phenomenon when it hit America's movie screens in May 1977. It seemed that the Mad editors were caught by surprise but finally issued a parody ("Star Roars") in the January 1978 issue (Mad #196). Thirty years later, Mad jumped all over the reissued version with a wrap-around Jabba-the-Hut cover and the movie parody: "Star Wars Macarena" by Frank Jacobs and Mort Drucker. In addition, writer Larry Sutter and artist Angelo Torres envisioned the clever "Updating Star Wars for the Future." Finally, making a comment on the enormous toy industry tie-in, David Shayne and James Warhola created six "Star Wars Playsets You May Have Missed." Although I do not collect the toys, I made need to get an unopened, mint copy of "Al's Imperial Jiffy Lube and Garage." These nine pages should have satisfied the hardcore syfy fan of the day. The other excellent article in the issue is "Even More Chilling Thoughts" written by Desmond Devlin with great drawings by Rick Tulka. It was also good to see some Jack Davis drawings ("Alternatives to the Heillich Maneuver" and the triple-splash-page video rental store ("Tell-It-Like-It-Is Video Rental Categories") by the cluttered-panel king, Tom Bunk.

We Are Just…
There are many different ways to define who people are.
You can describe a person by their family, their physical characteristics, their work, their friends, and even their desires. There is , however, one way that I have not heard before. It describes us in a unique way that misses a lot of information but in most ways it captures who we are. It informs people of who we are, what's important to us, and most importantly describes our legacy to the world.
At the end of the day, I believe that we are predominantly a collection of our stories. What really defines us is the stories that we create. And, make no mistake, each of us makes our own stories. We are in control of the stories and whatever is important to us is where we'll put our effort.
So, what are the stories that you're creating. What do they tell about you? What stories have you not yet created? Tell me. I'd love to hear how stories define who you are.

I believe part of the personal story can also be defined by something expressed by Maya Angelou
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Bia Garbelotti Photography is an on-Location Family Photographer specializing in lifestyle portraiture and documentary serving the entire Long Island including Hampton's, Nassau County, Suffolk County & surrounding New York areas.
My photography style is to capture the beauty of every day in a relaxed, adventurous and spontaneous way. My goal is to tell stories about people's lives, capture emotions and love in connection with the environment in an artistic manner.
I have two options to choose from: Documentary session which takes place in your house or in a meaningful location to you. It's the best way to capture your everyday life. The other option is an lifestyle portraiture session which takes place on the beach, in a park or on a field.
Hello! I'm Beatriz, just call me Bia.
I'm a very laid back and casual type of person and believe my personality reflects on my work. I'm far from capturing the traditional "look at the camera and say cheese" type of portrait.
To evoke a certain feeling I will encourage you and your family to snuggle, tickle, play and dance during the session. You will get a product with a variety of expressions and emotions including, why not, those epics meltdowns of a toddler. I hope you understand that I embrace and shoot real moments.

The kitchen may not be the first place that comes to mind when insurance is mentioned, but People & Partners' resident chef and insurance sensei, CEO Jeff Whittaker, explains why every chef should be covered, and all commercial kitchens should have the right restaurant insurance.
I may not have a Michelin Star, but I have enough experience in the kitchen to be 100% sure that every chef should be insured, whether it's basic property and fire cover, or more comprehensive restaurant insurance.
My wife and I have been married 48 years. For the first 40 years we divided our contribution to labour as follows:
However after six years our first son, Timothy, arrived and he was so much trouble that we divided our duties again as below:
Two years later our daughter, Collette, arrived. She was good but only slept during the day. At night she screamed along with her brother, Tim. So we divided the duties again.
After another 34 years had passed, I decided I was being a bit selfish. I was probably being a bit hard on myself, but being the generous person I am, I agreed to amend the work division.
Note: our kids now have their own nightmare kids.
For eight years now, we have been doing this, and it works fine (in my opinion). To be honest, I love cooking but I don't admit that often for fear of further amendments to the work divisions!
Having become a handy part-time chef, cooking not only for my family, but also for staff at functions, I believe anyone who cooks without being insured is taking a huge risk. The kitchen is arguably the most dangerous room in any building, especially if you're running a commercial kitchen. There are plenty of compelling reasons to be covered at home, but for commercial kitchens it's essential to look at all the necessary policies that work together to create the right restaurant insurance.
Cooking usually involves heat of some form (gas, barbeque and/or pressure) and very often in industrial kitchens the heat is combined with what most master chefs would describe as orchestrated chaos.
Restaurants, hotels, hawker, street food stalls, pubs, clubs, shopping malls, food floors, canteens, sporting venues, camping sites, beach resorts (to name a few)… all potential 'hot spots'. Insurers take special notice of these activities in the companies they insure for Fire, Personal Accident, Medical Insurance, and Third Party Liability Insurance.
Because even on a minor scale, cooking is a common cause for all fires. It's not just human error of course. Old or incorrect equipment plays a major role, and once a fire starts, insufficient precautions can be the difference between a manageable accident and a tragedy. On our risk surveys we always ask to see the kitchen or cooking areas and check for safe practices and fire extinguishers.
I am a very slow and precise cook. My wife calls me the slowest cook in the world. But I like to be thorough in the process. I prepare everything from scratch – no tins, bottles, premade sauces, frozen goods, bottled Jams or packets. So Sunday lunch can take four hours including two hours of preparation.
You would assume I'd practice what I preach by observing the strictest rules of safety in the kitchen. Nothing could be further from the truth. I wear the minimum of clothing: t-shirt and boxer shorts with no shoes or socks. It's so hot in Cambodia, I can't even wear an apron.
So I regularly get the following:
Let's be thankful that I limit my minimalist attire and lack of protection to the kitchen in my home. Unfortunately, similarly irresponsible cooking practices have been applied on much larger scales, resulting in catastrophe.
The Great Fire of London in 1666 was started in a baker's shop on Pudding Lane. The fire gutted most of the city including many major landmarks of the day, most notably, St Pauls Cathedral. The only positive to come from the devastation was an end to the Great Plague.
Nothing was insured because Fire Insurance was not invented until 1678 with the Hand in Hand Insurance Company in the UK. People and Partners Insurance PLC today uses the Hand in Hand Logo (the handshake) to show its "partnership" with clients.
Fire Insurance has come a long way, and it's one of the first policies that cooks (amateur or professional) should consider. But it's just one of a few types of cover that ensure there's adequate protection of the building, equipment, workers, guests and customers.
Insurance policies for chefs include:
The combination of dangerous equipment, human error, and lack of protection (e.g. cooking in your underwear) means there are no guarantees you'll avoid accidents. A chef can't completely control the quality of stock, equipment, and employees. Accidents can happen, and when they do, they can have dire consequences including the hospitalisation or death of patrons!
So as I always say, it's better to be safe than sorry, especially if you're as cavalier as I am in the kitchen!
Jeffrey James Whittaker has enjoyed a long and distinguished career in the insurance industry, working in high-profile roles in the UK, Africa, Australia and South-East Asia. He has worked on numerous 'Mega Projects' like sky trains, subway systems, hydro-electric dams and various oil/gas projects. Jeff is a Fellow of the Chartered Insurance Institute (London), a Chartered Insurer, and currently Vice Chairman of the Insurance Association of Cambodia.

MORE INFORMATION (and links to MP4a versions)
A-Oneism, and a-Twoism, and a-Threeism and a-... I guess you could say I'm still a committed Twoist. Everything on the track is me, except for some drum loops.
AKA "This Chalming Man!" I borrowed some lyrics and a bit of melody from Rod Argent--guess which band he was in? Everything on the track is me, except for some drum loops.
Mostly inspired by David Lewis, this song is about philosophical "roads to indifference," with a quick analogy to the road to Damascus. Musically, I was thinking about some Australian connections: my wife knew Martyn Casey, who played bass with The Triffids in Perth, and then with Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. That made me look up The Triffids, and I found out that Dave McComb was dead... bummer. Everything on the track is me, except for some drum loops.
I'd really like to have a female lead vocal, if there are any volunteers. It turns out this isn't the only song with this title. A Christian band named Go Fish already did one, but it's about Mary Magdalene. I couldn't let that go unpunished! My wife and daughter helped with the crowd vocal. Everything else is me, with drum loops and one small bass loop.
David Lewis rules! Pretty self-explanatory, but you might have to listen carefully to get all the references. (How many songs start with "Psst..."?) Lots of drum and percussion loops, and a bass loop--everything else is me.
How do you relate to someone with a different ontology, especially an austere one? Sad, really. For fun I used almost all loops for the guitar parts, heavily editing them, some drum loops, and couple of bass loops. Of course, some would deny I did any such thing.

is the guiding principle which now dominates public policy and investments. Climate related risk is understood by scientists, insurance industry leaders, and government officials as a key concern for community viability.
Resilience accounts for a community's ability to prepare for, absorb, withstand, recover, and adapt to various shocks, including natural disasters brought on increasingly by changing climate conditions. Intense rainfall is overwhelming urban stormwater pipes. Sea level rise and shifting currents are allowing saltwater to push further landward. River valleys are eroded and submerged when floodwaters fill them more often and more severely than in the past. Living systems (such as coastal marshes, riparian forests, shellfish reefs, etc) and the types of engineered systems that mimic or incorporate them have the special attributes of self-repair and regeneration.
Urban areas have traditionally been written off as "too far gone" or "too demanding" to warrant serious natural resource management attention.
This prevailing attitude has led planners, politicians, engineers, and businesses alike to handle the landscape with a heavy hand, altering the vegetation, soil, and waterways when and as convenient. In spite of various environmental regulations, the cumulative effect of these actions has been to impair coastal and river buffers, deplete the ground water supply, cause chronically low stream base flows, increase peak flows (resulting in eroded streams or overwhelmed piped systems), and transmit an array of common contaminants directly into receiving waters without treatment.
Communities face problems ranging from erosion to public health impacts, to greater flooding, to lost recreation access, to higher taxes, to depressed property values, and more.
Structural solutions such as floodwalls or hard armor can play a role in defending against floods, but they work better when included along with natural regenerative elements such as marshes, dunes, reefs to diminish storm impacts and dissipate energy before it strikes vulnerable targets. End-of-pipe modifications – in the form of wastewater treatment plant and stormwater collection system upgrades – are expensive. Cities are increasingly interested in restoring the vegetation, healthy soil, and landforms that have the capacity to capture, filter and purify urban run-off as a cost-effective and ecologically conscious way of managing stormwater. Likewise, flood risk reduction projects are also starting to apply green infrastructure.
Outside of populated urban centers, the impacts of mining, factory production, military operations, and waste disposal are felt as keenly in contaminated soil, surface water, and ground water.
Remediation methods have the potential to improve the ecological productivity of contaminated sites. By using plants, microorganisms, and natural geochemical processes, sites may be cleaned while simultaneously enhancing ecological health and leaving land in prime condition for conservation and recreation. These sustainable approaches harness natural processes for the benefit of people, along with watersheds.
The Center for Urban Watershed Resilience believes that environmental quality, community vitality, and socioeconomic opportunity are deeply connected.
The Center seeks to devise solutions that integrate natural resource management, commercial and residential development, and urban infrastructure.
Our goal is to transform damaged and vulnerable lands into economically viable, ecologically functional, socially valuable amenities.
The Center sees a new opportunity to positive solutions driven by community needs within every tough issue where land disturbance and degradation cause risk to life, health, and property. By focusing on coastal and river corridors, the Center helps municipalities adapt to climate change and its threats. By incorporating green technologies through cutting edge planning and design within the built environment, we can bring ecological integrity and social vitality to those areas most in need.

After Paris attacks, Democrats call for more gun control for those on terror watch list
After the atttacks in Paris, leading Senate Democrats are reviving a measure to expand gun control restrictions to cover foreign nationals and U.S. citizens who are on terror watch lists.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, the ranking Democrat on the Senate intelligence panel, wants to prevent anyone on the lists from buying a firearm or an explosive while in the United States.
Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., introduced the measure multiple times before his death in 2013.
"If you're too dangerous to board a plane, you're too dangerous to buy a gun," Feinstein declared.
The idea has always faced stiff opposition from the National Rifle Association and lawmakers who share the NRA's position. The NRA has argued that targeting those on the lists would unfairly infringe on the rights of U.S. citizens whose names were mistakenly included.
A move to restrict gun rights is likely to spark serious pushback from pro-gun lawmakers, especially as the 2016 elections near (despite a 2012 poll showing gun owners overwhelmingly opposed suspected terrorists purchasing guns).
But Senate Democrats argue there are loopholes in the programs under which foreign nationals can visit the U.S. that could increase the likelihood of a terror attack in this country. They cite statistics from a Government Accountability Office report that found 2,043 people on terror watch lists were able to purchase guns between 2004 and 2014 — 91 percent of those who tried.

Today, the brewery continues to make its most popular beers like Budweiser and Bud Light. It's also offering up newer options like Landshark and Shock Top. Anheuser-Busch offers free tours to visitors giving an inside look at its brewing and bottling process. There's also a tasting room at the end of the tour with free samples.

I may have mentioned this before, but I love writing these. I want to remember all the little things so when she hates me when she's a teen, I can whip these posts out and remember the good ole days. *SOB*
18 months is such a fun age. She's changing rapidly and learning new words all the time.
I frequently ask her, "do you want me to help you?" and now she always says "PELPYOU PELPYOU" when she wants help. Close kid. Close.
She says "horses", but it sounds like "ass", so naturally, I chuckle with my inner 12-year-old self.
She enjoys showering with me, but the feeling isn't mutual. Today she decided that she wanted to do laps around me while I was washing my hair. Before you think I have this big "horse" (he-he) shower, we don't. We have a small stand up shower so I was basically square dancing with her as she was doing these laps. And we all thought the square-dancing lesson in grade school was useless.
I had to run out for an errand, and she thought she was coming with me. I usually take her everywhere, but I was going to the hair salon. She kept saying "byeeeeee" to daddy as if she was leaving, but when she realized I was going alone, she broke my heart.
It wasn't the normal scream/obsession/angry cry for mom. Tears filled her eyes and her lips quivered. That's it, no screaming, just pure sadness as the tears fell from her eyes. It was simultaneously the saddest thing and the cutest thing all at the same time. I'm truly living in the 'good ole days'.
She chose a comfort animal 'Owl' while we were at the lake house. (ICYMI: We spent about a little short of two months in NH this past summer.) She sleeps with Owl every night. I felt a little guilty about it. She chose something to comfort her when she was in a new place, and now she needs it to sleep. Before you try to comfort me and say, 'it's just a phase' and it very well could be just that—a phase, I am a self-proclaimed expert in comfort objects. Just ask anyone in my family. It comes up every holiday. Every.Single.One.
She has quite the confidence. Recently, she was staring at herself in the mirror. I leaned in to get a kiss, and she proceeded to push me away and kiss her own reflection. That freshie.
She's still a tornado, wreaking havoc on my fall décor as I briefly show in [Instagram] stories. The pumpkins don't even stand a chance. But I can't complain, because I still choose to decorate. I set myself up for failure. Please keep me in your thoughts during the challenging time of Christmas decorating.
She walks with me everywhere. It's the cutest. Her tiny hand grips my fingers and there's not a single drop of sass. Just cute hand holding.
The other day, while we were still in Target, I decided to take her out of the cart and leave the cart in the store instead of dragging it to the parking lot and returning it to a cart corral.
She was walking beside me. Her cute and tiny hands gripping my hand. We were almost to the car before I realized one of her shoes was gone. She was walking with ONLY ONE SHOE ON and I didn't even notice. Thankfully the shoe was in the cart, but I'm sure it was a funny sight to see.
You'll never guess her jam. It's the milkshake song. If you live under a rock and don't know what song that is, [here it is on Youtube]. It's completely inappropriate, but she heard it once and now she loves to rock out to it daily. I fear the day she knows how to operate our Google Home.
We tried a new cereal and it has 3 different flavors. So, naturally, she favors the chocolate flavor and won't eat the others. And that's all she wants to eat. Just the chocolate cereal pieces. If you need me, I'll be sorting the cereal flavors like the underpaid assistant I always dreamed of being.
I swear she said "love you" today. "Mum?" "What honey?" "Love you." I'll take it. I'll sort out the chocolate cereal pieces if it gets me more "I love you's" any day.

There's something special about this golf hole. I'm gazing at the famed 13th green at Augusta National, a cozy par 5 enveloped in cotton-candy-colored azalea blossoms. I've got a six-iron in my hand, a golf pro by my side, and a gallery of dumbstruck onlookers. After a waggle or three, I grip it and rip it. Perfect. Dead center of the… net?
Atlanta's Hartsfield International Airport may be purgatory for every other business traveler, but not for me. Not anymore. Instead of spending a recent layover hunkered over a burger, beer, or laptop, I'm taking a golf lesson. Located across from Gate B15, between Laptop Lane and Charley's Steakery, Gravity Golf features a glass-faced hitting booth that attracts incredulous gawkers as readily as a Tiger Woods tee shot. "As far as I know, there is no other airport in the world where you can take a golf lesson," says Gravity Golf founder David Lee, who opened the center in June of last year.
A former PGA Tour player and longtime instructor, Lee figured that airport golf was a good way to demonstrate in person his teaching technique, which was previously featured in a long-running infomercial and is now the subject of a book, videotapes, and clinics. More than 30,000 people pass through Hartsfield's Terminal B every day, says fellow instructor Greg Powers — and sometimes it seems as though half of them are golfers. "It's like having a place in Times Square," Powers says. "You can't imagine the cross section of golfers who come in."
There are European golfers and Latin- American golfers, Delta pilots who are golfers, and a lot of golfers who make their living in sales. Then there are hacks like me. Powers, to his credit, doesn't wince during my practice swings. Instead, he demonstrates a series of unusual drills. I swing at the ball with my feet crossed, using one arm so that I lose my balance and experience what he calls the all-important "counterfall." I also experience my first whiff in years. I can't bear to look at the crowd gathered at the window behind me. I feel as if I'm some creature on exhibit at the zoo. Look folks: a duffer!
Powers, who played on the PGA Tour for 18 years and competed in the 2002 U.S. Senior Open, is exceedingly encouraging. He offers a tip here and there, and he helps me through drills. Eventually, I find a groove. I'm hitting the sweet spot, and my swing feels effortless. "You popped that one," Powers says. "That's Tiger's swing right there."
That does it. Suddenly, I'm out on the 13th fairway. Because of the inch-and-a-half-thick safety glass, the hitting booth is almost as quiet as a golf course; the gate announcements are hardly noticeable. That explains why, after I complete my lesson, I nearly miss my flight. Airport golf may not have sand traps or tall grass, but it's not completely without hazards.

Teaching your child about nutrition will lead to healthy lives for everyone.
The typical family today is so busy and overly scheduled with activities that it has created a whole new set of challenges for mealtime. Often the traditional sit down dinner and socializing as a family at a scheduled mealtime seems like a quaint tradition of our grandparent's day. We all feel the pressure to find easier; faster ways to provide a nutritious meal and eating individually as the family runs in different directions can easily become a habit.
Is it worth it to keep striving for that pleasant memory of making meals together and eating as a family in a relaxed setting around the table? Yes!
Having dinner as a family is a great opportunity for parents to instill positive reinforcement about nutrition. Helping your child to have good eating habits will affect your child throughout their life. Part of learning good eating habits is helping our children to learn to recognize when their body is full or hungry, an important step in avoiding eating disorders.
Early childhood development specialists encourage parents to let children make choices. Kids should decide "If They Want to Eat" as well as "How Much". By letting young children serve themselves they can begin to learn how large a portion should be and add foods to their plate according to their preferences instead of yours. We can't force our children to eat but we can decide the what, when & where in regards to food.
Kids want foods that look good and taste good too. Having fresh fruit available at all times for snacks or provide cut up vegetables and a low fat dip can encourage kids to eat healthy on-the-go foods. Children are often not interested in good food because it is not as sweet or as high in fat as the "junk" food they often prefer. Providing sweeter vegetables can also help. Try cooking carrots with crushed pineapple or add minced apples or pineapple to coleslaw. Apples, raisins, orange juice, cinnamon and nutmeg are also a sweet addition to yams and sweet potatoes. Here are a few more simple ways to cut down the sugar and fat content in your child's diet:
1- Substitute soda with 100% fruit juice.
2- If you must buy frosted and sugared cold cereal buy products with less than 6 grams of sugar per serving or consider mixing it with a plain variety of the same shape and style. Raisins could also be added to plain wholegrain cereals as a natural sweetener.
3- When buying canned fruit buy it packed in water instead of syrup. Purchase tuna packed in water instead of oil.
4- Buy wheat bread and even wheat donuts.
5- Suggest butter or syrup on pancakes and waffles but not both.
6- Top main menu dishes with mozzarella cheese instead of cheddar to cut down on fat.
It helps me to remember that the importance of a meal together as a family is not all about the food! Family mealtime teaches kids how to express displeasure about a meal they do not like and provides opportunities to teach good social graces and table manners. But it also is a great setting for helping your children understand that their feelings and opinions matter as they take turns sharing their important news and happenings of the day. John Doran adds, "A good dinner sharpens wit, while it softens the heart".
Mealtime is the perfect opportunity to get to know your children better. Parents should know what their children like to do in their spare time, what their most prized possession is. Who is your child's closest friend? What do they want to be when they grow up? If you do not know the answer to these questions for each of your children start making mealtime conversation more focused on your child.
Kids will look forward to meals as a family activity instead of merely another dinner when some fun is added once a month. Here are 10 creative mealtime activities you can try. If you run out of idea's there is a book by Randall Wright, "Building Better Homes and Families" that lists at least 30 more!
1) Let the kids be the waiters and waitress seating each family member, reading them the menu, serving and clearing the table.
2) Pre-school age children enjoy having dinner focus on the color they are learning. Choose the same colored food from all the food-groups. Don't forget the matching drink!
3) Eat by candlelight or let each child put a flashlight above their plate and eat with the lights out.
4) Hide a note to each child in their portion of food for them to find.
5) Let everyone choose their eating utensil from a sack, no forks to choose from only spatulas, ice cream scoop, turkey baster or other unusual kitchen items.
6) Older kids will enjoy the challenge of eating with the wrong hand. Use a dishrag to tie their wrist to the wrist of the person sitting next to them!
7) Grab a big vinyl wipe-and-wash tablecloth and your plates and eat in a different room of the house or even outside in the neighborhood for variety!
8) My father once surprised my grandmother at a birthday dinner by having her place setting different from the rest of the table. Her cup and plate was bright red! If my 92-year-old grandma is thrilled by the gesture, your kids will be too!
9) Surprise everyone by turning dinner into breakfast! One of our favorite family meals is to eat breakfast food for dinner. I like to make extra so that we can eat the leftovers the next morning.
10) Make the meal a cultural activity with clothing, food, music and decorations that depict that country.
Evaluate your family mealtime and decide if you are getting the most out of the mealtime opportunity to teach positive nutritional attitudes, get to know your child better and make fun family memories.
