I've been living in Dahab, Egypt for most of the year, taking all the PADI courses up to Divemaster, and loving every minute of the many dive sites in the area.
There are a lot of dive sites in Dahab, as well as near by Sharm, but one I had heard about, but not checked out, was Ras Mohamed.
One day a few of us at the pool of the Liquid Adventures dive center were talking about Ras, and decided to go. This dive isn't one of the easy, last second dives that take no planning, and you need at least a few people to make it worth it.
The next morning we loaded a small white Toyota with all of our dive gear, and drove out to the Blue Hole dive site, which is the end of the road to the north.
Like usual at the Blue Hole there were a bunch of other white and red trucks and jeeps from other dive resorts, with divers getting ready, standing around drinking tea, or walking into the water already.
But this time there was a big chain of camels waiting for us. It was a sort of spectacle with people watching the Bedouins load our camels with dive gear. I, nor anyone else, has ever seen camels with dive tanks, fins, BCDs and more on their backs.
It has to be one of the most unique dives, and camels trains, in the world. There is nothing more comical then a giant camel with fins sticking out of packs on its back.
For the 5 divers in our group, we had a train of 9 camels, with 3 Bedouins to lead them, 2 of the Bedouins being under 12 years old.
From the Blue Hole parking lot, we hopped on our camels, and headed into the hills behind the restaurants.
If you have never ridden a camel, that first 10 minutes up and down steep hills is the scariest. I didn't know how sure of foot a camels was, I just knew that it was a long way to fall if my camel tripped.
After some reassurances from our camel guy, I finally settled in to just enjoy the ride. My family jewels never enjoyed the ride, but I finally started to.
As soon as I was able to relax, I realized we were journeying through some of the most beautiful scenery in the Middle East. We were riding on thin trails between powdery sand dunes, and a beautiful shoreline with either rocky shores or untouched beaches.
We were in lands far from tourists, where very few people have seen, and even fewer non-Bedouins, and that fact didn't elude me for a second.
We would round a corner around a sand dune, and another little, desolate bay would come into view, with clear blue waters edging sandy beaches. No one in our little safari talked, all just loved what we were seeing, wishing we could dive into each small lagoon.

About an hour into the ride, where I was just uncomfortable enough to start to not enjoy the ride anymore, we came out to a big sandy flat spot where there were 5-10 small huts with a few Bedouin kids running around.
The huts were the familiar shady roofs, with a bunch of pillows and some short coffee tables underneath. And in front of one of these is where we stopped the ride to unload, and set up our gear.
Just like at Blue Hole, The Canyon, The South and the other popular Dahab dive sites, ladies came out of kitchens to give us tea or coffee before our dives.
The first dive, we loaded our gear onto a small cart, and entered to the left side, a little north down the coast, and followed the coast line back towards camp.
If you have ever dove the many dive sites around Dahab, you know how amazing diving can be in the Sinai. Now imagine it one or two notches better, and without people. In other words, We were diving Canyon or Blue Hole, as it must have been 20 years ago. Untouched, undisturbed, incredible.
Im not going to lament about the incredible reef system or numbers of species on this dive, nor the lack of trash or reef broken by anchors or too many divers. Im just going to say that it is the scuba diving location every traveler dreams about.
Our second dive, after a meal of beef bacon pizza in our hut, was a wall dive, with the entry being directly in front of our lunch spot.
This is another incredible dive, but instead of a sandy sloping wall, where we hop from reef to reef like the first dive, this dive was following a steep rocky wall, covered in coral and its fishy residence.
With our guide pointing out cute critters in the reef like nudibranch, trumpet fish, clown fish and much much more, we worked our way slowly down the coastal wall.
Once someone hit 100 bar in our tanks, the half way marker, we turned around and retraced our steps, or fin kicks, back to the entry. Such an incredible day of diving.
This day was an incredibly satisfying day when it comes to diving and adventure, and I was really glad we had decided to try it out. The only problem was that we were all pretty tired, and not looking forward to the long camel ride home. As beautiful as it was, and as unique for a dive trip, we were ready to just be home.
Right about then a small boat showed up. It was a bedouin man dropping off supplies to the locals. Through our guide from the dive shop we negotiated a small fee, and he took us back with him. It was only 10 minutes by boat back to the Blue Hole.
This day could not get any better. We ate icecream at yet another hut near our truck at Blue Hole, waiting for our gear to arrive by camel. Now who can say that?

CADAVER DISPOSAL - Transformatio Mundi (English version)
- Par
- Le dimanche, 16 avril 2017
- Dans Chroniques
- 0 commentaire
For me, everything started with CAVADER DISPOSAL by an unexpected meeting (because of a sound issue) that I don't regret at all, during MAJESTY's show, before BATTLE BEAST's concert (the 25th of March, at Le Petit Bain in Paris, France). By talking a bit with the bass player of the band, Alex Voss, I discovered that he also plays in a Death Metal band, which turns out to be really talented, and which I am going to introduce to you right now!
Let's start with a quick presentation of the band, but I promise that you will learn more about them thanks to an interview that we are going to make and post soon! Formed in 2010 and signed on Nihilistic Record a year later, the band is composed of Stefan Meyerhoff on vocals (ex member of BRAINDEAD), Dennis Blaze Baron on the guitar (member of MALLEVS MALEFICARVM and FINAL DEPRAVITY), Alex Voss on the bass (member of MAJESTY) and Torturer on the drums (member of BETHLEHEM and MOR DAGOR and ex member of BELPHEGOR); they clearly are not amateurs. A first record, titled May All Be Dead, was released in 2013 before the band broke up. But they decided to rebuilt the band in 2016 to prepare the little gem which Transformatio Mundi is (this album will be release on the 28th of April 2017) which I am going to talk about!
The atmosphere is set up with the introduction, called De pulchritudine et de ruinam. A majestic, heavy and mysterious ambiance is created, reinforced by very light sounds of birds while each instrument finds its place. Then everything is blown away by a demonic riff and Congregation starts! It is right now a much more aggressive and rhythmic universe that takes us. Stefan's deep scream perfectly combines with the musical part. For a beginning, this album is really good and you will probably start headbanging and tap your foot on the beat without noticing it! The powerful drums joins the bass and they answer one to another without competing for attention as they seem complementary. The third song of the album, The Ancient Order, has some surprises for you! If you thought you were satisfied with the first song, you are wrong and should get ready for this one! The singer speaks in a guttural and heady voice which enchants us. The following song, Seven Seals Unveiled, comes back to a more traditional Death Metal. The screams are longer and we feel that the most important here is the force the musicians have altogether, more than on the virtuosity of each of them. A Fateful Gathering opens on a guitar riff lined by a powerful bass part. The rhythmic is almost mechanical and Stefan comes back to his deep screams. The next song is greatly entitled Divine Delectation. When it starts, it reminds me some songs of Groove Metal, and we feel as if we were slowly falling into a mystical trance, filled with visions and dreams. What really strikes me at this stage of the album is that every songs are both hypnotic and really strong ; however each one has its own identity and the band never repeats itself until now and always offers new efforts in the compositions, such as the break on this sixth song. A beautiful solo soon joins in to convince you to fall into CADAVER DISPOSAL's arms. It is now time for What Must Never Be Forgotten! Even if it is as explosive as the previous song, it leaves me feeling hungry for more, probably because of the too strong contrast, according to me, with the last song we listened to.
At this point in the album, the band offers us a poetic and ethereal, almost evanescent, interlude. An Infinite Dream Ascends makes me plunged into a musical universe close to INSOMNIUM's one, which, as you know, I really like! CADAVER DISPOSAL just finished convincing me that they totally mastered their compositions to transmit an incredible energy through highly worked melodies. This is now time for the eponymous song of the album: Transformatio Mundi. More than on the other songs, the bass truly takes all its place by spinning a melody, of course with the guitar, around the singer's voice. The chorus is lively and the rhythmic and melodic breaks introduced by the drums always give desire for more, each instrument superimposing itself on the others with harmony. Failure of Man clashes with the rest of the album because of its Thrash influences. The guitar sometimes let space for some furtive notes from the bass while Stefan seems to turn his voice higher. The following song, Saddening Nothingness, takes another direction toward a more aggressive Death Metal. Once again, CADAVER DISPOSAL sends us a really heavy riff, accompanied by a super violent drums part on a powerful break. The voice sings in a twisted way and creates a more and more oppressive ambiance which ends on a new break which features the bass. The atmosphere seems new too with the beginning of Return From Exile. The song mostly worked around the contrast between the bass and the guitar which make somehow a dissonance. Comparing with other songs, the drum is almost discrete. The final bell tolls with the conclusion, Quantum Restat, which comes back to the strong Death Metal with which the album started. The band surprises me a last time with a spoken voice mixed with devilish screams. We now have come full circle and I am totally convinced by this band which I recommend you to listen to!
Honestly, it had been a while since I didn't like so much an album and I began to despair to find a "new" band that could transmit me so much energy while offering great musical compositions, but CADAVER DISPOSAL did it! Transformatio Mundi was made as a story, a tale which carries a warning which almost looks like a curse: with improvement, humanity is turning back to the natural and original harmony to dive into sciences and rationality, which exposes us to the risk of defying forces that go beyond us. It is your choice to discover or not this rich and dark universe ; I did it and I will start again without hesitating since I am ready to yield again to the devastating and overpowering force of CADAVER DISPOSAL!

Wired Women: Gender and New Realities in Cyberspace
Episode Recaps
Smart, thoughtful, and of the moment, this collection of essays is a refreshing departure from other women-oriented cyberbooks that tiptoe around the tangled sexual politics of virtual worlds. When it sticks to the subject (three pieces have little to do with gender), it tackles important online issues, from sexual harassment and gendered communication styles to Wired magazine's boys-club mentality and the 1994 cybercensorship flap at Carnegie Mellon (where feminists helped overturn a policy designed to protect women from porn). Lori Kendall's examination of MUDs (text-based role-playing environments) is a no-nonsense anthropological adventure, and Ellen Ullman writes engagingly about technophilia and her online romance. The only static in Wired Women: Gender and New Realities in Cyberspace is the occasional hint of sanctimony and a bit of less-than-professional writing. Otherwise, there's plenty here to educate and entertain. B+

Where's Yeezy? The Internet Isn't Buying Kim Kardashian's Response To Alleged Drug Use Rumors!
AllHipHop Staff
(AllHipHop Rumors) Kim and the rest of the Kardashian Klan just can't seem to stay out of the headlines.
Uh oh! In one of Kim Kardashian's recent Snap Chat videos, folks noticed a few lines of mystery white dust on a table behind her.
The internet wasted no time dragging her and accusing her of being on drugs and sniffing lines.
Kim wasted no time shutting the rumors down with a tweet that said,
"I do not play with rumors like this so I'm gonna shut it down real quick. That's sugar from our candy mess from dylan's candy shop."
Despite Kim's response the 'net wasn't convinced that the reality star didn't have some bad drug habits. It looks like most weren't convinced that it was candy. I mean of course it's candy because people keep their candy mess in two lines right?! LOL.
Check out some of the responses from skeptics below!

WINDSOR -- A Connecticut comedian has completed a 3,000-mile walk across the country to raise money for America's troops.
On Tuesday evening, Tom Connolly reached the last stop of his journey in his hometown of Windsor, Connecticut. He started the trek back on April 25 in Los Angeles, California.
"The weather, the terrain, everything just kicked my tail," said Connolly during a welcome home celebration on the Windsor Town Green.
Connolly said it was his mission that kept him going through long 30-mile days and sleeping in a tent for five months. Throughout the walk, he was raising money for Operation Gratitude, a non profit that sends care packages to troops overseas, as well as veterans.
Connolly says that like comedy, these care packages can lift their spirits.
"[It's] something that is desperately needed and that's morale boosting for our people overseas," said Connolly. "They're still over there in Iraq. They're still over there in Afghanistan."
Several veterans from Windsor were there to welcome Connolly home on Tuesday.
"It's wonderful thing. It makes all the difference in the world, I'd really appreciate it," said Vietnam veteran Mickey Bunk.
Connolly said people all over the country helped him out. Some offered up a place to stay.
"At the end of the day to just ask them if I can set up my tent on your lawn. I have not been turned down once," he said.
Many others donated to the cause. So far, he's raised $23,000 of his $30,000 goal.

OMGWTFLOL / Your Cover's Blown: Paul McCartney & Billy Paul's Versions of "Let 'Em In"
Posted by Andrew Unterberger on November 21, 2007
Do me a favor
Can you imagine a world in which Paul McCartney is a popular recording artist? And I don't mean popular in that just generally well regarded, "Prince is still as popular as ever!" way–I mean popular, not just with #1 albums and sold out tours, but with huge, monster hit singles. There were probably girls that listened to solo Paul McCartney. Young girls. You really know that The Beatles must've been the best band of all-time for Macca to even be allowed the time of day for his solo career, much less the consistent runaway success he achieved for pretty much the entirety of the 70s.
And believe me, I don't mean this to insult the old duck–Paul McCartney is awesome, no question, in my mind every bit the equal of John or George in terms of classics, both with the band and without (Ringo, of course, is still miles ahead of the pack). But he's awesome in the way that my 11th grade Physics teacher was awesome, or the way that the wheelchair trivia guy in Ghost World was awesome, or, of course, the way the entire cast and staff of Carpoolers is awesome. In other words, quirky, goofy, impossible to take seriously awesome. Old awesome. Listening to Paul McCartney's solo or Wings stuff stuff is like deciding to eat lunch in the backyard instead of at the dinner table. Pleasant. Dignified. Aloof. Brilliant.
Nonetheless, when was the last time old awesome translated into hits? I mean, we're talking about a guy who had a top 40 hit with a cover of "Mary Had a Little Lamb" .
A guy who mentions military ranks in several of his biggest songs. A guy who wrote smashes around phrases like "HAAAAANDS ACROSS THE WATER," and around bad title puns like "Helen Wheels". A guy who even acknowledged his critics in one of his biggest hits, but determined that this old dog didn't need new tricks, and proclaimed "Heeeeeere I gooooooooooo AGAAAAAAAINNNNN!!!" Were 70s audiences really so burned out from the decade before that they decided that all they could handle was the most harmless music humanly possible?
Even for Macca, though, "Let 'Em In" reaches new heights of inanity. The great majority of the lyrics are repeatings of this phrase:
Someone's knocking at the door
Somebody's rinign' the bell
Do me a favor, open the door and let 'em in
There's also a part where he lists the people who he wants to be let in:
Sister Suzie, Brother John
Martin Luther, Phil and Don
Brother Michael, Auntie Jin
Open the door and let 'em in
The amount of effort evident in the creation of these lyrics is truly stunning. This is not a short song, either–this is all there is to chew on for the song's 5:11 duration. I mean, shit, check Wikipedia's riveting commentary on the song's lyrical content:
The lyrics include references to a list of Paul's visiting friends and relatives: "Sister Suzy,[1] Brother John,[2] Martin Luther,[3] Phil and Don,[4] Brother Michael,[5] Auntie Gin,[6] Open the door and let 'em [them] in."[7]
In a later verse, "Brother Michael" is replaced by "Uncle Ernie."[8]
Like many other Wings songs, "Let 'em In" has been covered.
Anyway, the song is disturbingly hypnotic. Insanely catchy, too, but in a much, much less confrontational manner than something like the Vengaboys, or the New Pornographers. The pounding bass-like piano line in the background, the light shuffle of the drums, the crisp production–it's insiduous. Listening to "Let 'Em In" is like watching an ant crawl on the ground after getting one of the best pot buzzes of your life–something that shouldn't be even close to interesting, but remains unmistakably captivating and even slightly profound nonetheless. It's the way Seth Rogen describes You've Got Mail (his favorite movie, one of the only funny scenes in the whole show) in that episode of Undeclared–"It's just pleasant. It's like waves lapping against a shore."
I found Billy Paul's cover of "Let 'Em In" while doing a research paper on Classic Philly Soul my Junior year (let's hear it for college, huh?) and hoping to prove that Billy Paul had songs more worthwhile than "Me and Mrs. Jones". Dunno if Billy's version of the Macca standard is actually better than his signature song, but I certainly find it more interesting–and slightly less creepy, since the only times I ever hear "Me and Mrs. Jones" seem to be when the song's being used for lamely humorous purposes on Comedy Central.
But it just astounds me the way that Billy Paul actually finds meaning in McCartney's song. Paul takes the song's central premise and somehow makes it a civil rights anthem–helped greatly by the innumerous MLK samples, which make the song feel like kind of a proto-"Come Together" (or at least a proto-"Cult of Personality"). Paul also changes the namecheck part to be all about real life black leaders of the time (though I'm not really sure if Louie Armstrong qualifies as such). McCartney also mentioned MLK in the original "Let 'Em In," so you could say the meaning was there all along, but when hearing it from Macca, you could never imagine that the phrase "open the door and let 'em in" could possibly be a plea for something as broad as racial equality. It doesn't sound like it could be a plea for anything less narrow than "hey, get the door, will ya? TOUGH GUY?"
Once again, though, not that I'm complaining. I probably still ultimately prefer the McCartney version, just because its appeal is so singular among popular music–no other supposed rock star will ever seem as unconcerned with doing anything resembling the attitude of "rocking" again, I don't think. Cvil rights is all well and good, but hey, sometimes some good company with older relatives is what really hits the spot.
(They'll kill me if I write this much about Paul McCartney without mentioning them at least once, so please check out solidlittlerockjams.blogspot.com, which has probably reviewed seven new unreleased Macca albums in the time it took me to write this column)

Ha, I was listening to Paul McCartney when I scrolled up to this article. And I'm still listening to him. "The Back Seat of My Car." This is the serious shit. Deserves a week's worth of blog entries, at minimum.
December 3, 2008 at 8:28 am
Just wanted to know how do you know Paul McCartney mentions "MLK" in his version? He doesn't say KING. He could have actually been referring to the original MARTIN LUTHER.
November 22, 2016 at 3:37 pm
I'm pretty sure he was referring to Martin Luther, since Luther nailed a copy of his 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenberg Castle church. 'Knock, knock, knock, knock….'

Phil and Don just might be the Everly Brothers, a couple of guys who meant a lot to Paul and his earlier style. I don't doubt a couple others could also be shout-outs to other peers such as Jackie, and The Who. But also quite possible they're all just kin. But how do we explain the military pipe-and-drum section? I think the huge quantities of weed consumed by Paul may have been influential in writing this song.
I'll never be tired of this song. As you say, like waves lapping on a beach.
September 13, 2012 at 10:42 am
Jacko, not Jackie! Blasted spell-check.

November 12, 2012 at 11:50 pm
Actually, when Macca says "Martin Luther", he's talking about his old songwriting partner, who the other Beatles started to call Martin Luther Lennon after he became so involved in the peace movement.
May 9, 2016 at 11:58 pm
Yes, "Phil and Don" refer to the Everly Brothers. At the time of that song, they were split up: one busted a guitar over the head of the other and walked off the stage during a performance at Knott's Berry Farm several years prior.
Also, Armstrong was most certainly a pivotal figure in the civil rights movement, even if pundits these days don't make that connection. As he had been dead for five years when the song came out, you may be right inasfar as the context of the time. Then again, maybe not, as Malcolm and Martin both predeceased him.
Speaking of McCartney covers, I'm listening to Red House Painters' version of "Silly Love Songs" right now. They do it in the style of "Cortez the Killer" for eleven-plus minutes.
December 1, 2017 at 2:16 pm
When I was young back in the 70's my friend and I were being taxied around by my mother and "Let 'Em In" came over the (Boston) radio. She explained to us that she remembered when it was a term which was used in relation to the civil rights movement during the 60's.
January 24, 2018 at 3:15 pm
I listened to both versions and liked them both equally. I am curious of who are the speakers in the Billy Paul version. I recognized MLK's voice, who were the other orators. One of them sounds like Barack Obama, I know it isn't him because this song was released in 1972 and Obama obviously was not old enough to be an orator. At least not in '72. Just curious.

One thing I miss out here, having moved 1,797 miles from Yankee Stadium, is of course the chance to see the boys in pinstripes with the white interlocking "NYs" on their chests take the field. Last year was my first full major league season living in Colorado, but the Yankees didn't make it out here for inter-league play. This year, while reviewing the Rockies schedule I noticed the Yankees were coming to town and I suggested to Brenda that we go; she was very non-committal. I should have figured out what that meant, but of course I didn't. I found out on my birthday, when I opened my present, which was a pair of tickets to game one of the series, tonight. Not only that, but we would be sitting behind the visitors' dugout. The Yankee dugout.
The road grey uniforms took some getting used to, as I'd never seen those live before. Another change was the Harley Davidson animated motorcycle race through the Rocky Mountains replacing the festive little "subway challenge" animated subway race they do on the scoreboard back home in Yankee Stadium. "The four train! The four's a LOCK!" I would yell, every time; so I went for the green Harley tonight, but he lost. Just like the goddamned Yankees. Oh well.
But I supported the troops, with the standard Yankee war chant: "LET's go, YANkees!" (clap, clap, clap-clap-clap!) I did this until my throat was raw. It was a great game, really, despite the loss, and the popularity of the Yankees actually brought the pain of attending a MLB game back to the fore; the 41,000+ fans that showed up for the game actually stayed 'till the bitter end, so the mass exodus was a study in group dynamics and the effects of alcohol. It also took 30 minutes to get out of the parking garage, and this was due to retards paying with change -- just goes to show you assholes are everywhere, not just in New York. By the way, we parked several blocks from the stadium because the main lot was full, and all the commercial garages within several blocks of the stadium were charging between $25 and $40 to park for the evening. The best part was the handwritten signs with "$40" written on them, hastily taped over the normal $15 charge on the event parking signs they were all displaying. Do pirate parking lot attendants travel with the Yankees? One wonders.
The experience was in many ways a taste of what I miss about New York, and what I don't. But above all, it was a great birthday present and a great night at the ballpark. Thanks, Brenda!

Everyone knows that getting enough protein is an essential part of any strength athlete's nutrition regimen.
While there are lots of vendors to choose from, no one beats Amazon for price and convenience.
Here's the best they've got, all on Amazon Prime. (Don't worry if you don't have Amazon Prime – you can use a 30 day free trial.)
Top 6 Whey Protein Powders on Amazon Prime
- MuscleTech – Premium Gold 100% Whey Protein Powder [CHEAPEST + BEST VALUE]
- Optimum Nutrition – Gold Standard 100% Whey
- Isopure – Zero Carb 100% Whey Protein Isolate

- PURE Whey – Grass Fed 100% Whey Protein Powder
- Animal – 100% Whey Protein Isolate
Not signed up for Amazon Prime? Try Amazon Prime 30-Day Free Trial
What Is The Difference Between Protein Powder and Protein Isolate?
If you're not a world class athlete or lactose intolerant, you can probably save yourself a few bucks and pick up the powder instead of the isolate. If you are lactose intolerant, give protein isolate a try!
According to TheProteinWorks:
"There are differences between whey protein isolate and whey protein concentrate. Whey protein isolate has a higher protein content and is lower in carbohydrates, lactose and fat. But it is typically more expensive due to the additional manufacturing process it undergoes."
As there are indeed some high quality protein isolate powders available on Amazon Prime, you will see them included below.

…And, how looks can be deceiving.
Before we get to the Steak Frites, how does this look?
Poached Cod in Coconut Milk & Relish
Not bad, right? And I've done this before. …Well, upon looking at that link, I guess I must have been trying to get by cheap on effort this time.
It showed, because this dish was awful. I overcooked it (fish was rubber), I didn't have red onions so I used yellow, and far too much. Our eyes were watering. I also used fresh garlic, a whole clove — way too much; or, maybe leave out the garlic altogether.
But you know what? This is the only way you get better: dissapointment.
Embrace not failure, but the reality of failure and the opportunities for an improved reality it brings. -Me
OK, maybe that's a bit melodramatic for ruining a dinner… So, just don't be afraid to ruin a dish. Choke it down, or reschedule your weekly fast.
Here's the one I did the next day to redeem myself. Steak Ftites. The sauce is a reduction of a new batch of bone broth, this one having quite a lot of lamb bone scraps. I did the fries in half grassfed beef tallow from drippings from the ground beef of the last meatza, and half coconut oil.
Steak Frites
The steak is a grassfed New York strip from La Cense. I did them in the skillet & deglazed with the broth.
The fries are "twice fried." You first do them until limp, but not brown. Remove them to a mesh strainer over a bowl and let them sit for 5-10 (time not to important) as you reduce the sauce and the steaks are in the warm oven with the door cracked open.
Then fire the oil, and when hot, reintroduce the fries. They'll brown up in no time. Remove to the mesh for a very quick draining, then dump into a brwn paper bag, add a dash or two of sea salt, crimp the bag and shake.

Panto dame Sarah the Cook has a three-course role in seaside theatre's milestone production
PUBLISHED: 16:00 04 March 2019 | UPDATED: 16:03 04 March 2019
Sheringham Little Theatre has been staging its own in-house professional pantomime every year for a decade, and, to celebrate, the man who has directed five of them is putting on his frock and make-up in a return to the stage.
Nick Earnshaw, who hails from Stafford, will be appearing as Sarah the Cook in the seaside venue's production of Dick Whittington in December.
He was Ugly Sister Pearl in Cinderella back in 2009 and has since made Sheringham his second home, with regular involvement in the Little Theatre's pantomime and summer seasons, both as an actor and as a director.
"I am really excited and it's a dream come true to be dame in Sheringham," said the 37-year-old self-confessed panto addict.
"As a child I was obsessed with panto, I used to love watching, but I would also tape the radio top ten chart and work out how to get the tunes into a panto show. And when I was at drama school, agents would be surprised when they were trying to get me Shakespeare roles and I was asking about pantos."
Mr Earnshaw, who is also writing and directing this year's tenth anniversary Little Theatre production, said pantomime had recently enjoyed a renaissance, thanks to venues' efforts to bring the traditional British genre up to date.
And although the show is still more than nine months away, he is already excited about opening night and is looking forward to helping recruit his fellow cast members in June.
"It seems a long way off, but I am working on ideas for a show that will be full of energy," he said.
Theatre director Debbie Thompson said: "Nick has been a popular and key member of the summer and panto teams so having him play the dame this year seemed a great way of marking our tenth anniversary. It should be great fun."
Tickets for Dick Whittington will go on sale to the general public from the second week in April, and to theatre friends and members from April 1st.
For tickets and information on how to become a theatre Friend or member, call the box office on 01263 822347 or visit www.sheringhamlittletheatre.com

The Only Habits That Matter: Are You Doing Them?
by Vanessa Naylon
5 minute read
When you know you need to make a change, the number of choices and "should"s in the world can overwhelm you. It can feel difficult to know what exactly to try next. Let's talk about the top five things you should be working on. But…
Below you won't find twenty things to do when you wake up or the habits of successful CEOs. (Why is "meditate" always on these lists? People love telling each other to meditate.) There's no universal list for making you your best you. In the next three minutes, you're going to create that list for yourself.
Other people's ideas are cool for getting started, but you'll waste energy and money if you choose habits that aren't right for you.
Perfect examples: getting more sleep. Eating colorful vegetables. Meditating. These are all fantastic habits (I mean it — I have studied them all in my time), but sometimes a fantastic habit isn't for you. Does thinking about it make you feel any amount of dread? Then it's a Misplaced Enthusiasm Habit (MEH), because your passion for it is nowhere to be found.
Look down the road. You're feeling good now, chilling out and reading blog posts. Then life gets stressful, like during a move or near an important holiday. And you drop to-do items that aren't essential — rightly so. But dropping a habit temporarily will cut down your chances of picking it back up. Even if you master a MEH, it won't generate as much long-term satisfaction as a habit that reflects your values.
Start with something you won't discard in hard times: start with what matters to you.
Now's the fun part where we talk about how you pick your daily habits. It's simple:
Imagine the best version of yourself. You'll know it if you feel excited. You'll know it if you can see a lot of yourself in that person already.
You'll get the greatest, longest-lasting shot of momentum and inspiration by working toward the best version of you. On hard days, it'll feel faintly reassuring. On good days, it'll feel like a drug. You'll master these habits faster. You'll do them better than anyone you know.
At Habitry we call this "living in accordance with your values." Living in accordance with your values is what we really mean when we use the word autonomy.
I hope that you now have an idea of what this best version of you is, but it might take time if now is the first time you've given yourself permission to ponder it. Talk it over with a friend or start writing out your thoughts.
Now ask yourself: what traits does that person have? What do they do every day?
You'll create that best self by building their habits. Identify five things you're pretty sure the best version of yourself does every day. Drop the MEHs. Check out how this exercise works out with different people.
"I want to build a successful business. A good business leader is organized, always learning, and productive."
Every day, that person…
Note that Leigh's five habits are all things she can do every day in some form.
"The kind of person I want to be is a coach. Active, strong, and empathetic."
Every day, that person…
Would you tell Vernon he has to put meditation on his list? No, because it's not essential for who he wants to be. Maybe he'll get around to it later.
"I want to be creative and have a lot of good friends."
Every day, that person…
Darren isn't worried about getting lots of sleep, even though he knows it's good for him. It's worth it to him to stay up an extra 15 minutes a night reading Instagram.
What compliments do you most like to receive from others? Some possible answers: "You're so talented", "You're the funniest person I know", "You're the best at figuring stuff out", "I admire your work ethic".
How do you want to feel as you go through your day? Some possible answers: supported, calm, vigorous, joyful, energetic, inspired.
Inspired yet? Ready to change everything? Now's when I remind you that you'll be most successful if you start with just ONE thing.
Just one. Pick the most important habit, figure out the smallest first step, and get started.
We created an interactive guide to help you figure out what that next one thing should be. Take five minutes to work through "How to Prioritize Like a Busy-Ass Grownup" to figure out the first habit you want to work on. If you choose to provide your email address, results will be emailed to you.

|Travel Security Advice for Belarus
Belarus became an independent republic in 1991, after the breakup of the Soviet Union. In 1996, a constitutional referendum, not recognized by the international community, centralized power in the executive branch (president), headed by Alyaksandr Lukashenka. Economic and political reform in Belarus has stalled or is being reversed under his authoritarian government. The Belarusian Government's human rights record remains very poor. President Lukashenka gained a third five-year term as president in March 2006, in an election that international observers judged to be seriously flawed. Democratic nations, including the United States and the members of the European Union, condemned the subsequent governmental crackdown on peaceful protests in Minsk, and imposed visa restrictions and other sanctions on senior Belarusian officials. As a result of the release of political prisoners in August 2008, the EU lifted its visa restrictions, but those of the United States remain in effect. Both Belarusian and Russian are official languages, and Russian is widely spoken throughout the country, particularly in the cities. Tourist facilities are not highly developed, but food and lodging in the capital and some regional centers are adequate. Read the Department of State Background Notes on Belarus for additional information.
A passport and visa are required. Travelers must obtain a visa in advance to visit or transit through Belarus. Travelers who do not have a visa cannot register at hotels. U.S. citizens visiting or residing in Belarus are required to register with the local office of the Citizenship and Migration Department of the Ministry of Interior (formerly OVIR) within three business days after arrival. The registration fee is one National Minimum Tariff Unit (currently about $17). Failure to register can result in fines and difficulties when departing. U.S. citizens staying in hotels are automatically registered at check-in. Visa validity dates are strictly enforced; travelers should request visas of sufficient length to allow for changes in arrival and departure plans, and should carefully review the beginning and ending dates of their visas before traveling.
Both organized and spontaneous demonstrations occur in Belarus. Localized street disturbances relating to political events occur most frequently in Minsk or larger cities. In some instances, authorities may use force to disperse protesters; bystanders, including foreign nationals, may face the possibility of arrest, beating, or detention. Even demonstrations intended to be peaceful can sometimes become confrontational and escalate into violence. For this reason, it is recommended that American citizens avoid all demonstrations and protest gatherings.
Belarus has a moderate incidence of street crime. Though violent crime against foreigners is rare, criminals have been known to use force if met with resistance from victims. Common street crime, such as mugging and pocket picking, occurs most frequently near public transportation venues, near hotels frequented by foreigners, and/or at night in poorly lit areas.
The loss or theft abroad of a U.S. passport should be reported immediately to the local police and the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. If you are the victim of a crime while overseas, in addition to reporting to local police, please contact the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate for assistance. The Embassy/Consulate staff can, for example, assist you in finding appropriate medical care, contacting family members or friends and explaining how funds could be transferred. Although the investigation and prosecution of the crime is solely the responsibility of local authorities, consular officers can help you to understand the local criminal justice process and to find an attorney if needed. To see if you can be compensated in the U.S. as a victim of violent crime overseas, see our information on Victims of Crime.
Medical care in Belarus is limited. There is a severe shortage of basic medical supplies, including anesthetics, vaccines and antibiotics. Elderly travelers and those with existing health problems may be at risk due to inadequate medical facilities. Travelers are encouraged to ensure that they bring an adequate supply of prescription medications in the event that there are delays in departing Belarus. Tuberculosis is an increasingly serious health concern in Belarus. For further information, please consult the CDC's Travel Notice on TB at http://wwwn.cdc.gov/travel/yellowBookCh4-TB.aspx.
The Department of State strongly urges Americans to consult with their medical insurance company prior to traveling abroad to confirm whether their policy applies overseas and whether it will cover emergency expenses such as a medical evacuation. Please see our information on medical insurance overseas.
While in a foreign country, U.S. citizens may encounter road conditions that differ significantly from those in the United States. The information below concerning Belarus is provided for general reference only, and may not be totally accurate in a particular location or circumstance.
As there is no direct commercial air service to the United States by carriers registered in Belarus, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has not assessed Belarus's Civil Aviation Authority for compliance with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) aviation safety standards. Further information may be found on the FAA's safety assessment page.
Traveler's checks are normally not accepted in Belarus as a means of payment, but can be freely exchanged for cash at any bank. Most hotels, restaurants, and stores accept major credit cards. All Belarusian banks provide cash from major credit cards. All payments in Belarus are made in Belarusian rubles. Authorized currency exchange centers are widely available throughout major cities.
While in a foreign country, a U.S. citizen is subject to that country's laws and regulations, which sometimes differ significantly from those in the United States and may not afford the protections available to the individual under U.S. law. Penalties for breaking the law can be more severe than in the United States for similar offenses. Persons violating Belarusian laws, even unknowingly, may be expelled, arrested or imprisoned. Penalties for possession, use, or trafficking in illegal drugs in Belarus are severe, and convicted offenders can expect long jail sentences and heavy fines. Engaging in sexual conduct with children or using or disseminating child pornography in a foreign country is a crime, prosecutable in the United States. Access for U.S. consular officers to U.S. citizens in detention is often limited and/or delayed. Although U.S. citizens are able to obtain legal representation, there has been at least one case of delayed notification, hindered consular access, limited medical treatment, and trial behind closed doors. Please see our information on Criminal Penalties.
For information see our Office of Children's Issues web pages on intercountry adoption and international parental child abduction.
Americans living or traveling in Belarus are encouraged to register with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate through the State Department's travel registration web site so that they can obtain updated information on travel and security within Belarus. Americans without Internet access may register directly with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. By registering, American citizens make it easier for the Embassy or Consulate to contact them in case of emergency. The U.S. Embassy is located in Minsk at 46 Starovilenskaya Ulitsa; telephone (375 17) 210-1283 or after hours (375 29) 676-0134, fax (375 17) 334-7853 or (375 17) 17-217-7160 (consular section).

Trigger Warning: Graphic and Bloody Content Related to Medical Treatment
Also, there is a link to my podcast, equally scary.
I call the following picture "Why I Can't Have Nice Things…" Continue reading Inability To Write
By chance, cleaning through my unread emails, I stumbled across notes and pictures for a post I had planned for nearly a year ago and for some reason never published. It struck me that it could very nearly have been something I wrote just this week. There wasn't much written, just two rough paragraphs, but it did come with a nice collection of pictures. Here is what would have been, from November 4th, 2017:
There's no doubt that dealing with the side effects of cancer treatment can be perplexing. Patients deal with everything from digestive issues to pain to total hair loss to fatigue to stiff joints.
I was told twice in one day this week that I looked "bright." I was smiling and active, keeping myself busy and directed, and I was surrounded by people who I had not seen in several months (along with a few I had never seen at all). It was the good nature of reconnecting in a friendly crowd without the threat of being lost in it, I imagine, that sparked my particularly good mood on that occasion. The description was used again on subsequent days by unrelated people, causing me to take note that, perhaps, the whites of my eyes have simply become whiter. (Insert your own Revolutionary War joke here.) Continue reading To Clear or Not to Clear
I spent well over 45 minutes combing scabs out of my sparse hair to commemorate the end of the second week of my third month on poziotinib. Not all at once, mind you; I had the good sense not to stand hunched over the sink for more than 20 minutes at a stretch. When I was done, or at least thought I should be, I rewarded myself by sort of washing and conditioning the wiry bristles that cover much of my scalp. Such are these minor celebrations. Continue reading Poziotinib and Me at Month Three: Feeling Crusty (But Still Onboard)
I am now into the third month of my clinical trial for poziotinib. After the first two months, I had to take two weeks off for recovery from the rash it gave me. I am, however, glad to be back on the drug for the very simple reason that it was effectively killing the cancer within me. That is not a claim I make lightly, or, sadly, have had reason to make much at all over the past year.
When I was first put on chemotherapy back at the end of 2014, it was because there were no targeted therapies or immunotherapies available, either on the market or through clinical trials, that were likely to work for me. Chemo seemed to be the only option and, in some ways, it felt like a last-ditch effort. My tumor was considered inoperable, the metastasis had spread too far and wide, and radiation was not even being presented as an option.
While I was primed for a limited response and the possibility that I might only get a few months extension from the process, it turned out that chemo kind of worked for me. It worked well enough, in fact, that I would stay on it for over two and a half years — most of that time, simply keeping the cancer growth in stasis. There was talk of the possibility of being on that drug for five or more years at one point, but not long after the two-year mark I began to notice small changes in my scans. Very small, but changes, nonetheless. Continue reading Week One: The Oozing Begins
Crouched over the kitchen sink, I surged with a repressed groan, stifling the convulsive impulse as tears broke free; I cried, uncontained, momentarily unaware why. I was so used to keeping it in, I had become disconnected from what I was actually feeling — ironic, because what I was feeling right then was disconnected.
I did not recognize my body. This vessel in which I was contained made no sense to me at all. It responded to my thoughts and commands, but it felt completely foreign. Looking down at my arms, my hands, my fingers, I recognized nothing. They could hold the dishes I was washing, turn the knob on the faucet, even scrub with the brush. But there was a clumsiness about them, an awkwardness that was hard to explain or rationalize, except to know immediately that none of that was part of my body. None of it was Me.
Such is the effect of bodily changes that occur under cancer treatment. I was experiencing a slight case of dysmorphia, that feeling of certainty that you are not in the right body. It passed, but the emotional impact lingered. Continue reading This Is Not My Body
I have friends who are long distance runners and I have watched them struggle through their pain to achieve their goals. Although I used to train for both cross country and track way back in middle-school, I can no longer run. But I do understand a thing or two about the process. And I appreciate what it means to endure hardships in search of a personal reward.
At the end of May, I began participating in a clinical trial for Poziotinib, a new targeted therapy that works on mutations in the EGFR and HER categories. Naturally, within days of my May 23rd start, I had already begun exhibiting side-effects from the new medication. The resulting rash has persisted and spread, morphing into a completely new experience for me. I thought at the time that the minor ordeal I had in preparing for the clinical trial would have been the biggest challenge of the trial itself: first I went in for a "simple" needle biopsy procedure, then I had to stay to deal with the effects when things did not go exactly according to plan. The experience even inspired an opinion piece for the Philadelphia Inquirer. But I passed over that (still relatively minor) road bump and ran headlong into the clinical trial and resulting crash back into Rashville.
Having a rash does not sound all that bad in the grand scope of things. A little salve, a dollop of willpower, and it should be easy to weather. Itching too much? Slip on some gloves or spray it with lidocaine. Rashes pass. At least it is not nausea or debilitating pain or sleeplessness. Well, at least it is not nausea. Continue reading Endurance and Payoff
Spoiler alert: my rash has returned.
Before I get into the details of this new leg of my journey, I'm taking a moment to reflect on the side-effects of the past. In August of last year (2017), I stopped taking chemotherapy due to signs of progression. After about a month of cleaning out my system, I noticed a serious boost in both my mental and physical energy levels. My body began shaping up. I felt really good. And I started my first "targeted" therapy, the drug Gilotrif (generic name, afatinib).
Gilotrif was highly promising at the time. It had shown some level of effectiveness on the HER2 mutation in cancer studies but was still off-label for my use because it was designed to target a very closely related mutation. I loved it at first, however, because I kept feeling better and — in comparison to my 2 years and 8 months on Alimta (generic name, pemetrexed) — there was just an amazing lack of initial side-effects. Alimta had been fairly easy to tolerate overall and I had no real complaints considering how well it had worked. But I did have some skin and digestive issues, as well as persistent fatigue, that plagued me every month. Toward the end, the skin issues were particularly bothersome, and I was beyond thrilled when they cleared up. Continue reading The Rash Is Back
It has been over two weeks since I began taking my new drug, afatinib. Over two weeks of feeling good, feeling like the chemo has been thoroughly flushed from my system even as I have diligently taken these new pills, feeling the best that I have in three years. I have been keeping a journal this time, chronicling how my body is responding each day, trying to pave the way for a better understanding of how to live with this new treatment. For the first week, anyway, it almost seemed like it was going to be too easy.
There are two weeks of video updates on my Patreon feed, talking about how great I feel and wondering how bad the side effects will be once they really kick in. I had been prepped by my oncologist that it was very likely that I would experience worse side effects than I had with the chemo I had been taking. This was based on how well I tolerated pemetrexed, the chemotherapy drug that had kept my cancer at bay for so long, but not so much on patients in general having a particularly tough time on afatinib. Which is not to suggest that I expected a walk in the proverbial park with this new drug.
Still, the first week was amazing. It was almost like I was taking nothing at all. Sure, there was some digestive stuff going on, but nothing outside of the realm of what I would have been used to in a previous life if I decided to live off of bean burritos for a few weeks. And I love a good burrito, so it would be worth it. But by day eight, I realized that the side-effects of the drug were presenting themselves quite visibly. Continue reading Spoiler Alert: Side-Effects Show Up
I knew that I would not stay on chemotherapy forever. So getting to the point where I ended my "chemo journey" was not completely surprising. In fact, I had anticipated that a change would be good for some time — after over 2 1/2 years of the same routine, not only had it begun to gnaw at me each time I faced another infusion and ensuing side effects, but there was something of a "gut feeling" that the chemotherapy drug I had been on for so long had done about all it could do. I was probably influenced a lot by the promise of Immunotherapy drugs that had become the media darlings of the cancer world. When my oncologist said it was a good time to consider another approach, I was eager to do it.
Besides immunotherapy, for which I had hoped to join a clinical trial, there was the possibility that I might harbor an actionable gene mutation for my adenocarcinoma. My initial genetic analysis from a biopsy prior to starting chemo had shown none of the mutations that were being directly treated at that time. But a couple of years makes a big difference in the cancer world, especially with the increasing rate of progress science has been making over the past few decades. A re-analysis of that old biopsy showed nothing new, but a quick, painless liquid biopsy — two simple tubes of blood and fifteen minutes of my time — revealed that I harbor a fairly rare mutation, one that affects roughly two percent of the adenocarcinoma subset of lung cancer patients: ErbB2, also known as HER2.
This shifted gears for me regarding the drive down my treatment path. It also made me shift perspective. There is the question, now, of whether finding myself in such a cancer minority is a sign of good fortune. On one hand, it means that my genetic demographic is not highly studied — the downside to minority group patients is simply that there are fewer of us to put into clinical trials. Flip that over, however, and it makes the trials that have been done highly specific — and it makes the case studies on patients with this mutation also highly specific. Which in turn suggests that this might be a very positive development after all. Continue reading Frying Pan, Meet Fire – Leaping from One Therapy to Another

Development of employees through learning & training programs is an important function in any organization. The delivery of these programs in electronic form through software is known as e-learning and the development, administration, control and provision of these e-learning courses comprises a learning management system or LMS.
For growing companies which view their resources as business enablers, investment for skills improvement and job enhancement as embodied by an LMS will only seek to improve the development of talent in their organizations, and thus their overall business growth.
In order to decide on an LMS a number of factors need to be considered. These include extent of e-learining courses provided; ease of customization, testing requirements, and the ability to handle the requirements of a growing workforce.
Additionally the infrastructure needed to setup the LMS needs to be considered, the type of technology needed and the investment requirement. Finally, inclusion of the latest trends in the industry needs to be looked at as well. Based on this review of many vendors, we at ITQlick can recommend the following solutions.
1. SuccessFactors
This product is a cloud based HR solution which is dedicated to SMBs, and is scalable, to expand to larger enterprise requirements. Its learning module includes e-learning courses, instructor led & virtual training courses, job training with mentor support, and in depth expert training for job improvement.
There is support for social learning through a social network platform with additional access through mobile devices. Learning content, exams & assessments can be easily developed & customized, with analytics targeted towards learning & performance. SuccessFactors is a good option for SMBs looking for a comprehensive learning platform.
2. Sage HRMS
Sage provides a leading ERP solution which includes an HRMS module. This includes a training & education module which is provided as a hosted solution, with support for training workflows to map student focused course development.
Additionally there is support for social learning as part of teams and all assessments are linked to performance & appraisal reviews as well. Sage also has an extensive library of ready training solutions that cover leadership, management, safety & compliance, business development and technical & skills certifications.
While it does not allow for customized training content, this is a good solution if SMBs are looking to leverage on an integrated enterprise solution platform.
3. Epicor HCM
Epicor is another enterprise solution provider which has a Human Capital Management module. This solution has a training and development module which reviews resource competency by evaluating current job skills, certifications, training and achievement, then relating it to the job profile.
Based on this, learning development programs are developed to improve performance & ability. There is an alert system to advise employees when learning programs become available, classification to ensure required training is completed, and class scheduling to maximize attendance and training delivery.
Finally a good feature for SMBs is the real-time communication of training completion and improved qualifications so that the HR department can recommend employees for career advancement opportunities.
4. PeopleMatter
Peoplematter offers a dedicated Learn module which includes a large library of free e-learning courses for productivity & industry skills development, and an option to create customized courses with tests & assessment reviews. Additionally courses can be linked to third party training content to improve course delivery and is compatible with industry learning standards.
Training can be delivered via the web or mobile devices and there is a detailed analytics tool for performance review of both candidates and training delivery. There are also real-time dashboards which can be reviewed by management to see learning status & employee development progress.
This is a good solution for SMBs that need a flexible learning platform which also offers an open learning content delivery platform.
5. SutiHR
SutiHR has a training module which is focused on third party training delivery. It has a detailed course listing, scheduling options, as well as performance evaluation through test & assessment tracking.
This product does not offer customized training delivery and instead focuses on providing SMBs a range of training options that the company can subscribe for. However it does allow for in house evaluation to check on learning effectiveness and determines if further development or training needs are required.
SutiHR is suited for SMBs who are not looking at managing the learning content, but just need the scheduling and assessment components of an LMS.

Following on from the delicious pulled pork sliders recipe from Sunday, I thought it would be a good idea to post an additional recipe so that you can turn all of that leftover pork into something just as exciting as the sliders were, and this dish really shouldn't disappoint.
After all, you've cooked the pork shoulder for over 5 hours, and to me that warrants getting at least two special dishes out of it, rather than the obvious sandwiches for your lunch!
The recipe has been adapted from Jamie Oliver's 'Save With Jamie' cookbook and is created from a strong base of ingredients such as the onions and garlic, but is then combined with the fragrance from the fennel seeds and, of course, that unique smell of rosemary to really enhance the dish, and then the wine forms the base of the tomato sauce.
Do you ever get that feeling of knowing you're full but because the dish tastes so good, you know you'll regret not having more, so you end up having more?! This was exactly what happened to me and as a result, I could barely move from the table to the sofa afterwards!
Serves 4 | 40 Minutes
Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves (crushed)
2 Red Onions (sliced)
2 Carrots (thinly sliced)
1 teaspoon Chilli Flakes
3 Sprigs of Fresh Rosemary (leaves removed)
1 teaspoon Fennel Seeds (crushed)
200ml Red Wine (optional)
400g Cooked Pulled Pork (sliced into 2 cm cubes)
500g Passata
200g Conchiglioni Pasta
Heat a large casserole dish onto a medium heat on the hob with some olive oil.
Add the garlic, onions and carrots and fry for a few minutes, then add the rosemary leaves along with the chilli flakes to form the base.
Next add the crushed fennel seeds and fry for 15 minutes.
(Optional) Now add the red wine and bring to the boil by increasing the heat and covering. Once the liquid is boiling remove the lid and reduce the heat to allow to simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the passata and the pulled pork and bring to a simmer, leave for 20 minutes.
During this time make the pasta. This type of pasta usually takes around 17-18 minutes.
Drain the pasta, combine with the ragu and serve.

C'mon People Now! (or: siblings cleaning their shared bedrooms)
Ay yi yi. It's that time again. Every day, around 4 or 5 o'clock (depending on how the day has gone), I call out "redd up time!"
This is the signal for the children to clean their room as well as their "zone" for the week. I have divided the house up into seven "zones", one for each child still living at home. They are responsible for their zone for one week at a time. When I say "redd up", they need to put away anything that is out of place in that zone, dust or wipe down or clean certain things that apply to that zone (there is actually a list of instructions posted surreptitiously in each zone), and then vacuum that zone.
This brings next to zero problems. They know the drill quite well, they know the benefits we all reap from having a tidy house, and they know that I will tolerate no nonsense about not doing your job well.
Their bedrooms, however, are, for some reason, a different matter. I think it's because they consider their bedrooms "their space", and to an extent, they are correct. I try to give them as much ownership as possible (even if we disagree about what looks good 😉). But I require certain things that we still need daily reminders and practice on. One of the biggest problems we have in the shared work spaces is the division of labor. Who is responsible for what?
At first glance, it seems simple: each of you clean your own things and whatever mess you are responsible for. That leaves the pile of dirt, trash, and odds and ends that no one wants to claim responsibility for. AND the arguments about "yes, that is actually mine, but I'm not the one that got it out/left it out". If any of you have the answers to this, feel free to let me know! For today, I chose to play this song. LOUDLY. 😝
Parenting Tools: Cat Litter
I'm a cheapskate frugal/thrifty mama. The kind that says "I don't need 15 different types of cleaning products! I can clean it all with this one really good product!" (which, by the way is this one, it really does do everything well!) I've been pretty happy with that; I like simplicity, and am a little bit of a minimalist at heart.
I'm the only one in my family though, perhaps because my family feels the need to balance me, as I do tend to get a bit extreme in my pursuits from time to time.
My husband sees the value in having the "right tool for the job", and has no problem buying the right cleaner for the mess. I usually fall back on my standby (see above link), so he doesn't have to buy cleaning products very often, and sometimes I think we're wasting money on them letting them just sit there.
This morning, one of my children (who will remain nameless to preserve their privacy (0:) helped me to be even more grateful for my husband making sure I have all the tools I may need at my fingertips. Read the rest of this entry
This is the way we defrost our freezer… So early in the morning!
Yes, mundane and non-thought-provoking, I know. However, I had no clue how to do this for years. I thought maybe someone else was in that predicament too, so I figured I would share how I get the job done. The ice buildup had jammed the fan and our refrigerator suddenly became intolerably loud. So I rigged up this handy-dandy little setup, and within about 10 min. our refrigerator was frost-free and humming quietly. To offer some explanation to the picture, that's a hair dryer, propped by a box of baking soda, and a folded towel in the bottom of the freezer to catch all the melted ice. I turned the hair dryer on high and had myself a nice little cup of coffee while I waited. When I came back all the ice was melted and the towel was wet , so I used it to wipe down the inside of the freezer. And voilà !: Mission accomplished. :0)
