Manufactured from a specially produced multi-layered material, our bioreactor bags for use with the CellMaker are designed for rapid set-up and the optimisation of cell culture.
Our sterile bags are available in two types and are fitted into an enclosure within our single use bioreactor. The contents are agitated by the influx of gases through a sparge tube.
Our Regular Bag is ideal for the growth of bacterial cells with a high demand for oxygen as the gas flow is provided via the sparge tube to mix and aerate cells in culture.
Our Plus Bag has disposable, non-invasive sensors for the measurement of dissolved oxygen concentration and is more appropriate for the growth of E. coli. | 2019-04-24T02:51:36 | http://www.cellexus.com/products/cellmaker-bags |
An abused woman is the greatest composer who ever lived.

I hope everyone is well. I haven't been able to work on this project since January 6th, but I'm still here. To recap: I achieved accurate pitch and duration using both potentiometers, but still can't get the switch wired in properly. Currently, the only way to produce a tone is by removing the ground end of the jumper that goes from pin 1 to ground on the second 555, and touching it to the diode at the very beginning of the circuit. Any thoughts? I think if I can get the switch properly wired, this circuit might be ready for a pcb.
Pin 1 is the ground pin on an NE555 so it should always be connected the negative (GND) rail. If the tone appears when you connect in anywhere else it indicates you have a wiring error somewhere. Wiring it to a different voltage could damage the IC as it might result in lower voltages on other pins than the ground pin and force current 'backwards' where it shouldn't be going. However, with the values in this particular application it is very unlikely that damage will occur.
Pin 4 is the reset that is used to turn the tone on and off again. You should find that connecting pin 4 of the second 555 to + turns the tone on and grounding it turns the tone off. The purpose of the first 555 is to make pin 4 go high for the duration of the beep then go low again, effectively doing what linking it manually does but on a timer.
Been a while. Still not able to get the circuit to beep with a toggle switch. Also couldn't get it to tap into the battery that powers the LEDs. About ready to abandon the beep unless someone is willing to provide very detailed photos of how to set this up on the breadboard. Really can't tackle this one, and haven't touched the project in months because of the massive wall I hit with this back in December.
Could you post a link to the toggle switch, thanks?
What does "couldn't get it to tap into the battery..." mean?
This labelled photo was uploaded earlier on in this thread, I'm uploading it again as I believe it is quite detailed and self-explanatory, especially when compared to the last known schematic (whichever page of this thread that appears on ;)). Have a look, compare it to what is on your breadboard and ask away if you have further doubts. As you can see, I have only put one switch on this one, so two of the diode cathodes (the striped/silver band end of the diode) are floating - these (and the other seven you will have) must be connected to your rocker switches.
The speaker I used was a 32 Ohm one. Let's say the 555 outputs around 7.5V minimum and let's pretend the current draw is constant (not oscillatory/on and off as it is): 7.5V/132 Ohms = 56mA - well within what the 555 can provide.
Let's look at an 8 Ohm speaker version... 7.5V/108 Ohms = 69mA - still well within what an SE or SA or or NE or LM555 should have no problems providing.
I would doubt a 100mA max. 555 would cope well with so much current without a corresponding voltage drop at the output, frankly, but the prefix parts above named are all 200mA devices so that shouldn't be the problem, and in your case we could say that the average over time of the current drawn is only half those above calculations.
Personally, I wonder if it isn't either a wiring mistake or something about the rocker switch or maybe even the speaker, but it's probably just a wiring gremlin. I tried with two different rocker switches and it worked the same. | 2019-04-18T10:23:16 | https://www.edaboard.com/showthread.php?380600-Help-re-creating-a-replica-movie-prop/page10&p=1646228 |

Here are some pictures of the home computer network. I have gone a little overboard. But it is all quite a bit of fun.
In the foreground you can see the backside of two of the P133 machines. The bottom one is the router and firewall. The top one is the web server and other general purpose server.
Here is a shot from a little higher up. I think the color is better in this one. And now you can see the VT-102 sitting on the shelf in the background.
The entire room at a glance. The left most is a Pentium-III 500MHz on loan from a friend, Frank, for some networking. Second from the left is my AMD Athlon 650MHz machine. One the table is an ancient 386sx-16MHz which runs the ham radio bulletin board. (That is on the radio and not the phone line.) The back side of of Sue is seen sitting at a PII-400MHz machine. To the right of her stacked on the table are the two P-133MHz machines used to route and web serve. I am in the background sitting in front of the HP 712 Gecko. Just to my left is an old 486dx-33MHz machine which has been running Linux since 1993 or so. It is still my workhorse machine running my domain name, spooling news, handling mail, serving DNS and serving as a gateway to the phone line.
Here is another view of the network. On the table next to the 386 are the radios for the radio bulletin board. one power supply is visible. The other is the dark brown splotch in the far back. Two Alinco 2m radios lie flat on the table. There is a Kantronics KPC-3 and a KPC-4 on the stack for amateur packet radio controllers.
The network stack. I really need to get a few more ports. I am almost tapped out. The two light tan boxes are Linksys 100BaseTX switches. The dark grey one is a Linksys 100BaseTX hub. On top which is hard to see is a Cisco 675 DSL modem. Shouldn't every home have 100BaseTX routed throughout? Being that just barely visible is a 10baseT to coax ethernet transceiver for the old 486. You can tell that I like having different colors to help keep the wiring straight.
And no tour of my basement would be complete without at stop at the radio station. Don't mind the piles of junk on the table. I operate amateur radio station KF0UW from this location when not operating mobile. On the left is an AEA PK-232, at one time all mode, digital HF decoder for RTTY et al. In the middle is a Kenwood KN-140S with an antenna transmatch tuner above it. An SWR meter and dummy load. On the right is an automatic transmatch. On top of that is a frequency counter and a capacitance meter. | 2019-04-24T02:57:37 | http://www.proulx.com/~bob/home-pics/index.html |
Community activities are in my opinion not only an evidence for a worth living society. More than this I also very like to organise projects and to stand up for my own beliefs and conviction. Here I want to give a short overview where I have done this in the past. Definitely there will be more stations added in future. But for know I think I have to concentrate on my soon beginning job, so I have to cut down my work for some associations.
The Studentenforum im Tönissteiner Kreis e.V. is a political an confessional independent, interdisciplinary think tank of mostly German university students who are internationally orientated. The association connects dedicated and internationally orientated students into a cosmopolitan thinking and acting network. It gives a framework for individual ideas to form society with a sociopolitical responsibility.
The Studentenforum was etablished in 1999 by members of the Tönissteiner Kreis e.V., which was founded in 1958 as a network for senior management in international functions (at this time most of the members worked in international organisations or as diplomats).
In October of 2007 I was admitted to the Studentenforum. After leading the “Students Dialogue Southern Africa” and working for the “German-Chinese Students Dialogue” as well as in some intern task forces, I was elected into the associations board in April of 2009. Since that I was responsible for the re-setting of our Corporate Design, for the internal communications (newsletters, yearbook and others), for the coordination of the board and for support of some projects of the Studentenforum.
The association Deutsche Model United Nations (DMUN) e.V. (German Model United Nations Association) boosts the political education in the field of the United Nations. The target group are secondary school students and young persons with hindered acces to education.
To reach his aims DMUN e.V. is hosts the two largest German-speaking MUN-conferences, which are Model United Nations Baden-Württemberg (MUNBW) in Stuttgart and Model United Nations Schleswig-Holstein (MUN-SH) in Kiel.
DMUN e.V. was founded in March of 2003 as MUNBW e.V. as organising instituion of the UN simulation MUNBW. When there was etablished a second simulated conference, MUN-SH, in summer of 2005, the association was renamed as the present day DMUN.
After helping to organise two of the MUNBW-conferences I was elected in summer of 2004 to hold the presidency of the association. During working as president (until summer of 2009) the organised conferences became more and more professional because of many very dedicated team members. Beside of this the first MUN-SH conferences could be held and the preperations for a first participation of a DMUN-delegation at the international NMUN-conferation in New York began.
I am very glad that the association is still growing very well. This also shows that I played not a very important role in this game even if I was formaly the head of the association. Nevertheless or maybe therefore I had lots of fun doing this work.
The Junge UNO-Netzwerk Deutschland (JUNON) e.V. (United Nations Youth Association Germany) is an umbrella organisation of German UN University Clubs, Model United Nations Initiatives, school and university delegations to international Model UN conferences, UN Youth Campaign Groups, groups of young UN researchers and the like.
I have attended JUNON from its very beginning and were delegate for DMUN in many conferences. In particular at the first meetings and dureing the later reorganisation of the network into an association I made efforts to develop a proper framework for the realisation of the objectives of JUNON. As the most powerful member of JUNON, DMUN had much responsibility in leading the young association into a right way. As today JUNON is very successful one can see that we could mostly fulfil these expectations.
The Club der Ehemaligen der Deutschen SchülerAkademien e. V. is the alumni organization of the Deusche SchülerAkademien with the intention of promoting continuing personal and scientific contacts between its members.
Since my participation at the Deutsche Schülerakademie 2002 in Gaesdonck (Germany) I am a member of this association. Without any official function I participated at some academies organised by members of the CdE, teached a course at one of these academies and tried to help out if there was something to do. Here I want to give my thanks to all the people who are doing much more work in this association than me and who thus let me spend lots of nice hours and days!
During my first two years at university I took part in the student council of the department of mathematics and statistics at the University of Konstanz. From October of 2005 until September of 2006 I also was a student delegate at the council of this department. There I helped to figure out a good design for the new bachelor’s study conditions, so that there is still a very, very small part of the everyday life at the University of Konstanz which is influenced by my work.
Bodensee Consulting is the student consultancy at the University of Konstanz and the HTWG Konstanz (university of applied science) which was founded in 1998 and has over 100 members today. As a member between October of 2007 and September of 2010 I headed a small project on establishing a new corporate design for a small firm and helped to enhance the knowledge management of the association.
Even if I did not have enough time to get more involved in the associations business, I am happy to see how the Bodensee Consulting is getting more and more professional and developed.
Freunde der Ellwanger Gymnasien e.V. is the alumni and development association of the secondary schools of my hometown Ellwangen. In 2003 it was founded from the former “Vereinigung der Freunde des Ellwanger Gymnasiums e.V.” which was a development association of one of these schools.
As one of the initiators of the new concept of this associations I also was part of the board of ten people. Furthermore I designed the new corporate design of this association and developed the new member’s magazine. Unfortunately in the last few years there could not be found enough members who want to work for the association’s aims with dedication. However the most important jobs have been done by a hand of people. For the future I hope that the created structures will be better adopted by the secondary schools of Ellwangen and that there will be more former students of these schools help the association to support the schools.
The student council of the Peutinger Gymnasium Ellwangen, my former secondary school, was the first institutional setting where I took part in some project organisation work. The highlight of this time was undoubtedly the project “Schule als Staat” (a project format where the whole school turns into a small country with its own firms, currency and parliament) in summer of 1999. As minister of finance I managed the revenues and expenditures of our country and the exchange from real money into the virtual money, the PEURO. Aside from this project we organised manly school discos, christmas activities and other small events at our school. A short time I also worked for the school magazine LUPE. | 2019-04-23T23:49:29 | http://en.meidert.eu/about-me/community-activities/ |

Goodman Derrick has advised Neon X and Chris Ratcliff on the management buy-out of Portland TV from Northern & Shell.
Portland TV, established in London Docklands in 1995, was the adult broadcasting arm of Northern & Shell and a market leader in delivering subscription and pay per view services to UK audiences on Sky, Virgin and Freeview. Following the acquisition, Portland TV’s adult channels and on demand services – including Television X – became wholly owned by Neon X.
This deal marks the complete exit of Northern & Shell’s involvement in the UK television industry. Channel 5, previously owned by Northern & Shell, was sold to Viacom in 2014 for £463 million.
The Goodman Derrick team was led by Corporate Partner Edward Hoare, along with Media Partner Paul Herbert and senior corporate associate Rudy Capildeo and they were assisted by Real Estate Partner Dagmara Selwyn-Kuczera and Tax Consultant Jane Innes.
Goodman Derrick’s corporate team of 17 lawyers is known for its commercial approach to delivering client transactions.

Vindicator Editorial: August 9, 2018 at 12:00a.m.
Maine Secretary of State Matthew Dunlap had an observation about the unsubstantiated claims of widespread voter fraud that Republican President Donald J. Trump and other purveyors of such fakery should take to heart – but won’t.
So said Dunlap, a Democrat, in a letter last week to the now-disbanded voting integrity commission launched in May 2017 by the Trump administration.
The letter was sent to Vice President Mike Pence and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, both Republicans who led the panel. It was prompted by an analysis of administration documents that provided no evidence to support the claims that have become political red meat for Trump’s supporters.
It is instructive that the commission was disbanded in January with little fanfare, unlike its launch last year when Trump went on a tear about the millions of people who voted illegally in the 2016 election.
Trump’s denigration of the electoral process has everything to do with his bruised ego and nothing to do with the facts.
While the Republican nominee for president won the Electoral College vote and thus the 2016 election, his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton received 2.8 million more votes overall.
The president has refused to accept that result, saying that illegally cast votes gave Clinton the edge.
Yet, his commission, which only met twice, went out of business without issuing a report. In other words, Pence, Kobach and other members could not come up with the evidence to support the president’s claims.
But that hasn’t stopped him from continuing to cast doubt about the integrity of elections in this country. Such a blanket indictment of the process has resulted in Republican and Democratic secretaries of state stoutly defending themselves and their states, and rejecting Trump’s broadsides.
In April, the president was in West Virginia for what was billed as a roundtable discussion about taxes when he went off script and repeated a claim about voter fraud.
Legitimate, independent organizations that monitor elections in this country have all challenged Trump’s assertions, but that hasn’t stopped him.
He has correctly concluded his supporters don’t want to be confused by the facts. They want to believe Trump not only won the Electoral College vote, but also was favored by a majority of Americans who cast ballots in 2016. Like their idol, they cannot fathom the idea that Clinton won the popularity contest.
The Brennan Center for Justice at New York University also has weighed in on Trump’s go-to issue when he’s trying to fire up his base.
There is very real concern that Americans’ trust in the electoral system is further diminished every time Trump makes some ridiculous comment about what’s taking place in the voting booth.
But Kobach, the vice chairman of Trump’s voter-fraud commission and a candidate for governor of Kansas, remains firm in his contention that a problem does exist.
“For some people, no mater how many cases of voter fraud you show them, there will never be enough for them to admit there’s a problem,” he said.
But here’s the bottom line: Voter fraud isn’t the major problem Trump and his allies claim it is. They must know that their constant attacks serve to further undermine people’s trust in the electoral system.

The oral tradition predates the written word by thousands of years. Throughout history, storytelling has provided both a creative outlet and a focus for community. The Appalachian narrative tradition has remained especially vibrant: The International Storytelling Center is based in nearby Jonesborough, Tenn. And in Asheville, gatherings and competitions in which people share their own personal stories have long been a popular draw. A relative newcomer to the local scene, Moth StorySLAMs are part of a celebrated national network. The Asheville Moth GrandSLAM brings together 10 winners of previous StorySLAMS for a competition held at the Diana Wortham Theatre, Monday, Oct. 29.
Dedicated to the art and craft of storytelling, The Moth is a nonprofit organization founded in 1997. Moth competitions feature “true stories, told live onstage without notes,” says Bridges. To date, The Moth has presented more than 35,000 stories; slams take place in 26 U.S. cities plus others worldwide. Winning stories have the potential to be chosen for The Moth Podcast; Bridges says that the program is downloaded more than 52 million times a year. The broadcast version — “The Moth Radio Hour” — won a 2010 Peabody Award for broadcast journalism and airs weekly on over 475 public radio stations worldwide.
In 2015, Bridges’ wish came true. “I got a call asking if I would like to be the producer, and of course I was over the moon for that opportunity,” she says.
Held monthly at The Mothlight, The Moth StorySLAMs in Asheville were an immediate sensation. “I don’t think that I ever could have imagined the success that our show has had,” Bridges says. “We have sold out every single show.” As one of very few Moth StorySLAMs in this part of the country, the Asheville event draws local tellers as well as competitors from throughout the region. The Asheville events are the subject of an upcoming documentary film, as well.
Moth stories are often inspiring or heart-rending. Local finalist Cat Ashe won a place in the GrandSLAM competition with her winning story about her 5-month-old son’s death and home burial (which she also wrote about for Xpress in 2017). “A good story needs to be told with passion,” she says.

It’s almost San Diego Comic-Con time, which means here comes the SDCC exclusive toys that will pay the rent of eBay scalpers for months to come.
NECA just announced their big exclusive set and good lord. It’s beautiful.
Two Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle box sets, based off of the colors of their appearance in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game.
The first box set will feature all four turtles, done in “video game-style” colors, (similar to NECA’s line of video game style painted figures), and will come with interchangeable hands, their signature weapons, and PIZZA POWER UPS.
The second set will feature The Shredder and three Foot Soldiers, with game specific weapons(!) painted in a similar style.
Here’s the text from NECA’s official announcment.
NECA has really done a lot over the years to SHUT UP & TAKE MY MONEY, as their toys often have high quality sculpts that don’t skimp on the articulation, with super fun and creative paint jobs, but this? This is me sending them a blank check.
You can view more pictures and a video over at NECA’s website, but I’m just going to sit here and drool for the next hour. Pricing hasn’t been announced, but NECA says pre-order information for non attendees will be up soon.
It’s also worth noting that NECA doesn’t like to “Use and Lose” molds, so it’s entirely possible that we might be getting single retail releases of these figures at some point in the future. I hope. Please? | 2019-04-19T21:20:15 | https://tay.kinja.com/necas-tmnt-sdcc-exclusive-is-perfection-1778251160 |
NiMH rechargeable: 200 treatments (16oz./0.5L) or 100 treatments (32oz./1L).
Treatment Times: One half liter of water is purified in 48 seconds; One full liter of water is purified in 90 seconds.
The package includes the SteriPEN Classic 3 water purifier, Pre-Filter with Nalgene bottle adapter, Filter Cartridge, carrying case with belt loop, and user's guide.
The original SteriPEN handheld UV water purifier has been improved for this Classic 3 version that includes a Pre-Filter to remove particles from the water prior to activating the SteriPEN. The Classic 3's UV light destroys over 99.9% of waterborne microorganisms that cause illness. The Classic 3 is the first version of the SteriPEN that can operate with one set of 4 AA alkaline batteries that were not included in the package. It can also be powered by alkaline, lithium, or NiMH rechargeable batteries which the manufacturer recommends for longer battery life.
The Classic 3's enhanced LED indicator panel shows the treatment size and status of batteries and UV lamp. The Classic 3 is ergonomic with an easy-to-remove twist-off lamp cover. To use the Classic 3, remove the lamp cover, press the activation button, submerge in clear water and stir. When the water sensor pins detect water, the lamp will illuminate. When treatment is complete and successful, the lamp will turn off and green LED indicators will flash when water is safe to drink.
The 40�40 micron screen Pre-Filter fits perfectly on wide-mouth one liter water bottles and removes particulates that can get in the way of UV light in water. The Pre-Filter is designed to be stored directly on a wide mouth bottle and the SteriPEN Classic 3 fits perfectly in the filter. The Pre-Filter that is screwed onto the top of the Nalgene bottle can be left on the Nalgene bottle for the entire trip. The small tube portion that is inserted into the Pre-Filter must be stored elsewhere during the trip.
The small tube portion that is inserted into the Pre-Filter contains mesh to keep debris out of the water bottle during the filling process. The blue mouthpiece on the top of this part of the Pre-filter is not meant to be used as a mouthpiece to drink the treated water out of the Nalgene bottle because untreated water would be on the outside. The blue mouthpiece pulls up to open which allows the bottle to fill with water faster.
The manufacturer provides a three year limited warranty.
The instructions indicate to treat water in one-half or one liter batches. The instructions also do not recommend using alkaline batteries because of their short lifespan. Batteries should not be left in the SteriPEN for extended periods of time.
With a lamp life of up to 8,000 liters, the manufacturer indicates the Classic 3 should purify drinking water for over 7 years.
To use, install the Pre-Filter base on top of the Nalgene bottle and install the Pre-Filter mesh cartridge. Submerge the bottle in the water source until bottle is full. Once the bottle is full, remove the Pre-Filter cartridge, remove the lamp cover, press the activation button once for a half-liter and twice for a full liter treatment. The LEDs will flash green to indicate the unit is ready. Insert the SteriPEN in the Pre-Filter base opening until the sensor pins touch the water or turn the water bottle upside down. It is important that the blue soft plastic portion of the Classic 3 fit snugly in the water bottle when turning it upside down to prevent leakage. The tapered end of the Classic 3 also fits snugly in some plastic water bottles. When the pins detect water, the lamp will illuminate. Stir or agitate the water by rocking the bottle for uniform purification. Once the process is completed, 2 green LEDs will illuminate for one liter of water or 1 green LED will illuminate for 1/2 liter of water.
If red LEDs illuminate, that indicates low batteries, less than 100 uses left on that set of batteries, the water sensors were not submerged in water, time to replace or recharge the batteries, water was not detected, or time to replace the LED lamp depending on the pattern of LEDs illuminated.
The battery compartment is not waterproof so it is not recommended to submerge the entire pen. The batteries may be affected by temperatures above 120 F (49 C) and below -4 F (-20 C) and thus the SteriPEN should be kept within this temperature range. To clean the SteriPEN, wash with a soft cloth and mild soap solution, rinse soap from device and dry with a clean soft cloth. If the bulb is cracked, chipped or damaged, return it to the manufacturer for repair.
To give it a try, I installed the Pre-Filter base on my Nalgene bottle, inserted the Pre-Filter cartridge, and submerged the entire bottle in a sink of water. Once full, I removed the Pre-Filter cartridge, pressed the activation button twice for a full liter treatment, inserted the SteriPEN into the Pre-Filter base opening and inverted the bottle. The lamp illuminated within two seconds. I rocked the bottle back and forth in a circular motion to agitate the water. Within 90 seconds, the two green LEDs illuminated to indicate the process was completed.
The Classic 3 is a compact, lightweight, easy to use tool to obtain drinking water in the backcountry. I can't wait to get it out in the wilderness for the field test.
I installed the pre-filter on my half-liter water bottle and obtained water from the lake. I could only reach the water from the edge of the lake and there were small waves so there was silt present in the water. The pre-filter worked well as there was no sediment in my water bottle. I needed to be sure the smaller part of the pre-filter was connected tightly to the large part that screws onto the top of the water bottle. When I first pushed it in, it was not secured well and came loose easily. I was worried that if I didn't screw it in tightly, it might come loose in the waves and float away. Once the water bottle was full, I inserted the SteriPEN unit, turned the bottle upside down and turned on the unit. After swirling the water as directed for 45 seconds, the green light came on indicating the water treatment process was completed.
The button activation/warning system works well. I have purified 25 liters so far and have had no issues. I am using rechargeable batteries and am still using the first set of batteries. According to the manufacturers estimate of 100 treatments on one set of rechargeable batteries, I estimate I have another 75 treatments before I need to recharge this set of batteries. That should take me through the end of this test.
The start button turns on easily, the lamp activates within a few seconds of sensing the swirling water, and the green lights flash when the purification process is complete. The SteriPEN operates as indicated in the instructions.
I have noticed that a few drops of water drip out during the purification process when the bottle is turned upside down while I am swirling the water with the SteriPEN inserted into the prefilter ring. The dark blue portion of the SteriPEN fits snugly against the prefilter ring so I am not sure why water is leaking out.
This picture shows me obtaining water from the edge of the lake where there was silt in the water due to the small waves caused by the wind.
This picture shows me swirling the half-liter water bottle with the unit inserted into the bottle with one hand, thus demonstrating how easy the SteriPEN is to operate.
This picture shows how well the pre-filter worked to keep out the silt. The water is clear and has been purified.
While the pre-filter ring and mesh parts work well to keep out particles that are present in fresh water sources, they are extra little pieces to carry around. The large ring that screws onto the top of the water bottle is convenient because the top of the water bottle screws onto the top of the pre-filter. Drinking from this ring is not recommended because the water on the outside of the ring is not purified. The little pre-filter part that gets pushed into the ring is another story. It has mesh around the sides and must be kept protected during transport. I am still trying different methods to protect this little part during transport. If my water bottle is empty, then it is a convenient place for storage.
Considering I have been using bleach drops to purify my water for the past two summers, the SteriPEN seems like a lot of work in one respect. On the other hand, with bleach, I need to wait an hour for my water to be ready to drink. With the SteriPEN, once the water is purified, it is ready to drink. On a longer duration trip with a lot of streams and lakes available, I think the ability to purify and drink the water all in one stop would be an advantage. Being able to drink a liter or two on a water break would also eliminate the need to carry as much water.
We hiked around many streams and lakes with opportunities to utilize the SteriPEN. I used the SteriPEN for our group and purified a total of 25 liters of water on this trip. This makes 50 total liters of water purified on the first set of rechargeable batteries.
The on-off button works easily and the lights on the handle of the SteriPEN continue to work without fault. I located a very small plastic container to store the prefilter in during transport to prevent damage to the small mesh filter portion. This has worked well as there is no damage so far. This SteriPEN was easier to work than I was expecting. I will continue to use this SteriPEN for my future trips.
The SteriPEN continued to work well in the field. The advantage of being able to drink the water immediately after it has been treated has allowed me to carry less water between water sources. This is a welcome weight savings that is offset by the weight of the SteriPEN.
This test series is now concluded. Many thanks to SteriPEN and BackpackGearTest.org for this testing opportunity. | 2019-04-22T18:01:43 | http://www.backpackgeartest.org/reviews/Water%20Treatment/Ultraviolet/SteriPEN%20Classic%203/Test%20Report%20by%20Frances%20Penn/ |
“Raising a real food generation in the real world” starts with getting little ones in the kitchen! Learn the 4 steps to mastering safe kitchen skills with kids age by age!
This post is so full circle for me. I literally have chills as I write these first few sentences, because other than writing about nourishing babies with real food and stopping the cycle of processed food, this topic is what I had envisioned writing about more as my kids get older.
Because this is where it all begins, yes? If we want to see the next generation of kids know where their food comes from, and “raise a real food generation in the real world,” it must start with the littles in the kitchen.
…We must stop the cycle of disconnect with our food, and be ok with messy hands, spilled milk, and egg shells in the batter.
…We have to be ok with dinner prep taking a few minutes longer so the toddler can be the one to wash up the potatoes, and 9 year old can be the one to do the chopping.
Maybe not every night, but making a commitment to include our kids in the kitchen will save them the years and years of relationship issues with food that the last few generations are still digging out from.
So here I am, 8 1/2 years after having my first baby, and having ZERO culinary background or schooling, to tell you that kids really can learn how to master kitchen skills. I’ve found that even with my 3 very different personality kids that there is a really concrete flow for teaching them how to master these skills without tears or frustration. Here is my method!
These steps are evergreen for any kitchen skill at any age. The process will look a little different between showing a 3 year old a new skill versus a 10 year old, but the concept is the same. The goal is to set the kids up to succeed and not fail.
Show Them. YOU do the task and explain what you are doing along the way. SLOW DOWN, so they can see what you are doing and process it. You may stay at this step for 1 run through, or for ages. For instance, washing up produce really just takes showing your 2 year old how you want the apples washed, how to do it with care so they don’t bruise, and where to set them when they are done washing. How to clean up their splashes and how to dry the apples. Easy peasy. But my toddlers watched me most of their toddler-hood before they used a sharp knife. Anytime they were up in their little helper stander watching me chop, I was telling them what I was doing. It all starts there.
Hand Over Hand. Get right up over their shoulders and help. Even with the washing example, a 2 year old will still need help along the way until they have done it a few times and know what to expect. You can hand over hand peeling carrots, chopping fruit, stirring a pot of soup or muffin batter, etc. This is really key to helping kids feel confident – because you can keep them safe at the same time. Slip ups and mistakes will still happen, but you are still there.
Supervised Independence. This is where the setting them up to to succeed comes in. Stick around until they feel confident on their own. Letting a 2 year old go to town on a sink full of produce will only end in a mess to clean up and an irritated mom if you are not right there next to them in the beginning to let them know it is not ok to pour a cup of water on the floor. When expectations are clear, they are set up to succeed. This step also is important with older children as well. My 8 1/2 year old is still not out of this step for chopping with a sharp chef’s knife. She mastered using a kid safe kitchen knife years ago, but last year we introduced a kid hand sized, regular sharp knife, and I’m still watching over her shoulder here and there as she goes along. It gives me a chance to correct a posture or holding technique so she doesn’t get hurt.
Mastery. When the child has demonstrated independence over a period of time, you can confidently let the know they have mastered that skill. Kids love this – they literally eat this kind of challenge up. I learned this terminology from watching my girls in their Montessori school – mastering certain skills or work stations gave them such pride.
So let’s talk about age appropriate tasks!
Here me on this first, and repeat after me…every kid is different. EVERY kid is different! This is not concrete, rather a general guideline. I remember thinking sometimes, there is no way my kid could do this or that, and then got gutsy and tried it, and they blew me away at their ability. Other times I would try something that one of the other children was responsible to do at a certain age, or caught onto fast, and was quickly reminded that not every kid is ready for everything at the same time!
“I Chop, You Dump!” :: Toddlers love putting things in and out of bowls, filling up cups, and just feeling like they are helping momma. Tell them you need some help getting those chopped veggies in a bowl and they will proudly puff their chests out to be the big helper. I’m telling you, give a toddler a board full of chopped carrot coins and they’ll put them from bowl to bowl or cup to cup for a good half hour of focused play! I used to start dinner early just for this great occupying play!
Washing Produce :: Hop those toddlers up on a Little Helper Stander and let them help scrub the potatoes up, wash up the apples, and rinse of whatever produce you are preparing. A bowl full of water and chopped leeks are great sensory play to get the sand out (and they will inhale this creamy potato leek soup after they rinse the leeks!).
Pre-Chopping Skills :: We purchased this toddler chopping toy for my oldest’s 1st birthday, and it has been passed down to each of the other girls – it is a GREAT way to introduce the process of chopping to little ones in a safe way and start building and coordinating their hand muscles for this task.
Other odds and ends :: Toddlers big puffy heart love buttons! Let them push the blender, mixer, or food processor on! They also just love being a part of whatever you are doing. Take the time to let them take a turn to stir the muffin batter, put the muffin cups in the muffin tin, put the veggie peel scraps in the garbage, hand over hand scoop the biscuits off the baking sheet, and butter the pan for the bread. You’ll be surprised not only at how much they really can do, but what this does to puff up their confidence in other life tasks.
Not only will these little guys transitioning into more preschool ages still thoroughly enjoy the tasks from their babyhood, ages 3-5 is a fun age because they are gaining more fine motor control and can reason about hot/cold, cause and effect of splashing, and some are even trustworthy to start some simple knife skills.
Same Kitchen Tasks from the Above Babyhood Section :: Just take it up a notch. Give them more responsibility such as counting out how many potatoes need to be washed and dried – and clean up the splashes that happen. Let them mix a bit more when you are making muffin batter.
Peeling :: One of my girls was peeling with a Y-Peeler by the age of 2, but she was extremely trustworthy and followed directions well. I usually like to start peelers around age 3, but again, follow your child’s lead. Follow the “4 Steps to Mastering a Kitchen Skill” from above, and you’ll probably never have to peel a carrot as long as they are around! Your older 4 and 5 year olds will also enjoy the Julienne Peeler to make strips of veggie “noodles” for stir frys – they are always a big hit here!
Cracking Eggs :: This is a good age to start this skill, though my experience has shown me every kid picks it up differently – one of mine took a good year to master this skill while another just a few tries. Just follow the “4 Steps To Mastering A Kitchen Skill” from above and they’ll catch on!
Measuring :: I typically start introducing this skill around this age by measuring it myself and letting them dump into the bowl. As they get closer to age 4 and 5, you can start with some independent measuring using smaller measuring spoons and work up to the bigger cups and liquids.
Pouring :: Don’t start with something you need poured precisely right away. Start with just a couple of simple tea cups or small pitchers with water only a quart of the way filled up and let them practice pouring from one pitcher to another. Back and forth. You can even start with something dry like rice or beans, and when they master pouring that, use a little bit of water.
Special Tools This Age Can Manipulate :: This age does well peelers, Julienne peelers, spirilizers, and little choppers for dicing onion or chopping nuts. Apple cutters work well if you get them started. Don’t try a full apple until they are a bit older – cut some rings of apple and let them do the rounds versus a full apple – full soft pears work well though! They also still love pushing buttons, so let them make the hummus in the food processor, or blend up the smoothie.
Pre-Chopping Skills :: At this preschooler age, I like to introduce a these kid safe knives and start hand over hand chopping practice with soft things like steamed veggies, bananas, strawberries, or soft pears. You will definitely find that chopping responsibility age varies from kid to kid. My first born was trustworthy with a small, paring knife (paring knifes are sharp) for strawberries and other soft veg around the age of 4, while my other 2 were not. My 6 ½ year old is just now starting to use a sharp knife (this chef’s knife is my favorite knife for older kids as they start needing sharper knives for real chopping) safely and I think this is probably more the norm.
Hot Food Prep :: Just like knife skills, trustworthy-ness for hot food prep will vary in age from kid to kid. My first born was standing next to me in her Little Helper Stander at the age of 2 and 3 helping me stir a pot of soup. Never leaving her side, but she was very trustworthy. I learned real quick that my second born was not the same way from the second I set her up there and she was going to test my warnings of “hot” herself. Simply let them know you are going to scoot their stander over to the other side of the counter where they can stir a bowl of pretend soup (water) until they are ready to be safe with hot food. It isn’t a big deal! They’ll catch on! She was safely stirring a pot of soup closer to 4 ½ and this is the same for my third born.
Refinement of Toddler Section Skills :: Now is when I’m going to start telling you to let go a little 🙂 Let them make a mess a bit while they learn how to measure flour precisely, let them get a little egg shell in the batter as they refine their egg cracking skills (just scoop it out before you mix!), and let them have a salad with roughly chopped versus neatly diced carrots. Their confidence and skill mastery will only sharpen with letting go!
Follow a Recipe :: While my toddlers and preschoolers watch me refer to my recipes while cooking all the time, when my Kinder age kiddos start reading, I start pointing out what I’m reading and why. Let the 8 and 9 year olds follow a simple recipe for making hummus, a salad dressing, or simple soup.
Measuring and Pouring :: Let it go momma, and let them try 🙂 Put the flour in an easy to scoop container (I actually find freezer bags are just as good for the little bags of gluten free flour). Instead of pouring milk from a large jug, let them measure it out from a smaller pitcher. Yes, more dishes to clean and a little extra time, but it is worth it every so often to let them practice this skill.
Blending, Mixing, Whisking, Folding :: Follow the “4 Steps to Mastering a Kitchen Skills” and show them the difference between stirring and folding. Show them the different tools and the why behind wanting to fold something versus blend it up with a mixer.
Hot Food Prep :: This age should be pretty good to go on helping stir a pot of soup, but this is also a great age to start teaching how to make a simple egg in a pan, flip a pancake, and sear some meat. It takes some time to supervise and help them learn the coordination of it all, but it is worth it when they can fix themselves an egg in the morning without your help! Again, I think it is best to keep them up and over the work area, so even my 8 year old still uses a step stool at the stove for safe hot food prep.
Pre-Meal Planning :: This is a good age to start testing all that you have taught them as little ones with regards to eating in a balanced way! Start having them help you plan out the breakfast menu, pack a balanced lunchbox, and prepare dinner. Every family’s eating style will be different even within this RGN real food community, so I won’t tell you what that should look like. As an example in our home, there is always a healthy fat, veggie, and protein at each meal. It will look differently from household to household, but my kiddos by this age know how to plan a meal and what might be missing.
So here’s were I’m going to make this post an ongoing work in progress! My oldest is 8 1/2! I don’t have older children yet, so I’m not going to pretend that I know what I’m doing here. I do have a few thoughts that I will share, but as my kids reach through these ages, I’m hopeful to update this section as we go!
I think these older kiddos, just like our little guys, are capable of much more than we think. I’m just now starting to work with my 8 1/2 year old on more refined cubing of potatoes and dicing of veg for soups. Following bigger recipes and taking things in and out of the oven. I think tweens and teens ought probably be helping plan and make most of one meal once or twice a week, and packing most or all of their lunchboxes. I would really love to hear what your tweens and teens are doing in the kitchen at home! Inspire us with little ones by using the comment section below to tell us all that your teens can do!
Here is a comprehensive list of the tools I love using with my kids – I have tried and tested SO many different kitchen tools with them. Some have been disasters, and so this list is truly all of my favorite tools to make working with my kids in the kitchen safe, easy, and fun!
One of the tricks I used to adding to my kitchen tool collection for the girls, was getting these tools on their gift lists for holidays, birthdays, etc. Wrap them up in a fun apron, or slide a great recipe in with the gift with the promise of some kitchen time together!
Cutting Boards – As far as cutting boards go, I find my heavy bamboo cutting boards work well for kids because they hold still. Though, I thought this looked like a good deal with the kid safe knives that came with the non slip grip cutting mats!
Crinkle cut hand chopper – this is a GREAT one for littles because their fingers are out of the way and it’s easy to use!
Eggs- We separate a lot of eggs, mostly for waffle morning, and I find this egg separator makes for less mess and accidents when dealing with kids and this task! Also, while it is totally do-able to cut hard boiled eggs with a knife, I’ve found my kids adore this egg cutter, and it’s the only way my youngest will eat one!
Cherry Pitter – since we live in Michigan, we have been through every cherry pitter known to man, and I thought I’d share with you our fav! We have found this one is best for little hands, although one of these is super nice too!
I love these hand scrubbers for your littles that want to scrub up produce!

Yes, yes, yes! I adore this post and everything in it, especially all those beautiful photos of your little girlies! It is SO important to get our kids into the kitchen! I love how you’ve broken it down into doable, practical tips!
Wow Renee this is wonderful!!! Tiny Love is sitting here looking at all of these photos with me and she’s saying “I can do that!” or “I want to do that!” Thanks for the reminders about some of these, you know I get them in the kitchen with me, but I tend to forget how much they can do. I know I can give them some more tasks and especially with my oldest, I need to give her some more independence in the kitchen. Also, I’m getting those knives!
Awww sweet girl! I love that! Enjoy those knives!
These are great! Pics are so cute as well!
Renee, I love all those dated photos of your girls, doing their important tasks so early, like scooping seeds from the squash! How helpful to have the tasks separated by what’s age appropriate! I remember when my oldest was little I was uptight and wanted to prevent a mess, lol; I think I was sleep deprived. 🙂 Now I LOVE having them all help, and especially my oldest who’s 16 and just made our dinner last night, and my youngest who makes his own banana cookies. Such a sweet process and reward.
I love the real-ness of this reply Megan 🙂 Because there were times I did shoo them out of the kitchen because I just couldn’t bare another mess to clean! We are real people, right?! I am so inspired by your teens helping so much – I can’t wait!
I love this post! It’s so important to teach them how to cook at a young age.
This is such an awesome post, and I think it’s so great when kids learn how to make healthy food!
I appreciate your kind words Monique!
This post is amazing! As a newer mama I appreciate all of the tips and inspiration!
So many great tips! It’s so important to get little ones in the kitchen. I can’t wait to start cooking with my niece!
She will love that Corrine!
These are such lovely pictures! I agree, it really is an excellent education! My kids get a real kick out of helping in the kitchen, and I can usually get the fussy eaters to try new things simply by getting them to help make it!
Yes, Nicole, that is a great perk to getting those kids in the kitchen too! No more picky eaters! Thank you for your kind words!
Oh Renee, there is SO MUCH I love in this post. Thank you for taking the time to write it! I think it is so important to foster kids interest in the kitchen and connecting with food. I am thankful every day my Mom and Dad spent the time with us in the kitchen.
Good stuff! Sharing with my cousins!
I love the idea for this post. Getting kids to help in the kitchen is the best thing ever!
Renee, they are absolutely adorable ! You are a wonderful momma and they are learning a great lot from you. So happy they gain so many wonderful skills while young. Such an important gift !
This is amazing!!!!!! Truly inspiring, your littler helpers are so independent and proud of themselves. You are a goddess and queen of patience… I’m going to get Jack more in the kitchen with me! Thnk you for all the tips!
Thank you for your kind words Cristina!
This is perfect timing! Your little ones are adorable and so helpful in the kitchen! Great tips.
Renee – what a brilliant post! Sharing it as we all need to get this out there that kids being in the kitchen and off their devices is absolutely essential! In my day if I was watching tv whilst my Mum cooked I’d be in such trouble, now it’s where we will find most kids!
I appreciate your kind words Donna! Thank you!
I love each and everyone of these tips! I was scared to use a knife until I was 9 years old. I think it is the best thing ever when moms teach their kids safe knife skills and other cooking skills from a young age.
Thank you Katie! I was petrified of a knife as a kid too – and didn’t learn how to use one until I was in my 20’s! | 2019-04-20T12:57:03 | https://www.raisinggenerationnourished.com/2017/11/4-steps-to-mastering-safe-kitchen-skills-with-kids/ |

That the use of oily, fragrant materials to anoint the body is a custom going back to remote antiquity is evidenced by the Old Testament as well as other early literatures. Likewise the ceremonial and sacred use of oil and ointment was of early origin among the Hebrews, and, of course, was much elaborated in the prescriptions of the later ritual. The particularly rich unguent known as the "holy oil of unction" is frequently referred to in the "priestly" sections of the Pentateuch and in Paralipomenon. Its composition is minutely prescribed in Exodus 30:23-24. Besides the regular basis of olive oil, the other ingredients mentioned are chosen myrrh, cinnamon, calamus, and cassia, all of which are to be used in stated quantities. The making or the use of this holy oil by unauthorized persons was prohibited under pain of sacrilege. In many of the references to ointment in Scripture perfumed oil is meant, and it may have in some cases consisted of oil only. Oil and ointment however, are distinguished in Luke 7:46: "My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she with ointment hath anointed my feet." Identical or similar preparations, in which myrrh was an important ingredient, were used in anointing the dead body as well as the living subject (Luke 23:56). Ointment of spikenard, a very costly unguent, is mentioned in Mark 14:3, "an alabaster box of ointment of precious spikenard" (cf. John 12:3). So prized were these unguents that they were kept in pots of alabaster, and among the Egyptians they were said to retain their fragrance even for centuries. For the oil spoken of by St. James, v, 14, see EXTREME UNCTION.

Sometimes, finding storage space in small bathrooms can be a challenge. Even if you find a suitably small toilet?that does a great job in saving space,?it’s not always enough to fit what you want in.
Because of this, more and more people are turning to over?toilet storage which utilizes an otherwise unused space above the tank. Many of of these products come with multiple shelf’s that ensure you’re able to keep all your items on it be it shaving equipment, toothpaste, a nice decorative vase of flowers or even air freshener. Whatever it is, the extra space is going to come in handy.
So to help readers find a suitable match for their own bathrooms, we’ve spent time scouring the web for some of?what we feel are the standout options.
Coming in both espresso and white colors, people?will be able to pick for their style taste and current bathroom theme rather than features alone. Some people prefer to not have too much white in one area, so the brown color will lend itself well for them.
The unit itself is free standing with space at the bottom to slide towards the wall easily. The design includes a nice open shelve which could perhaps be used for more decorative purposes, as well as a concealed cabinet to store all any?beauty products, medication, and anything else that may effect the look of?your?room.
It’s made from wood, and to give you an idea of space required for setting up, the dimensions are listed as?23-1/4 inches in width x 66-1/2 inches in height x?8-1/4 inches in depth.
It’s a reasonably affordable option that will fit over most casino online viet namstandard height toilets, and has received a good range of feedback from consumers.
This is a beautifully designed product that is also available in both Espresso and white, depending on your preferences. If you’re worried about it not providing enough stability whilst on the loo, you also have the option to wall mount it to hold it securely in place. The shutter design on the the small doors at the top look great and give it a unique feel.
Aside from the obvious benefits of more shelving space, you need to understand the height your current toilet is and match a product that will fit over it. This particular product is noted by the manufacturer as being able to fit above most standardized options, measuring?9.2 inches by 27.4 inches by?63.8 inches.
We’ve come across several reports from consumers on the web that talk about being happy with the?solidity and stability as well as how easy it is to put together. However, as you will most likely be lifting this into place, we recommend you assemble it reasonably close to the bathroom to cut out a lot of the heavy lifting, and fitting through doorways.
Those of you wanting a?more advanced, albeit expensive option, may want to consider having a look at this option. You are provided with a good mix of open and concealed spaces to put all your things, but you will require a bit more width in floor space availability compared to many other products in this market.
The design itself has a white finish that can really help brighten up a dark space. At the same time it will help your bathroom become far more presentable, with many of the items you store being kept out of view, improving the overall aesthetics.
The product dimensions are listed as?5.6?inches by?16?inches by?24 inches, and the amount of places to put things puts it ahead of many of its competitors. The down side of this however, is you will find it’s a bit more expensive.
For those aiming for a minimalist look, this model could be ideal. It’s got a very basic design, with three upper shelves that are all open and can be utilized for keeping things like towels out of the way.
One of the things the manufacturer lists?that we feel is important, especially to those who dislike DIY, is its easy to assemble. Not everyone likes spending countless hours putting things together after all.
It has a nice curved touch on the top shelf which looks great, and gives it an elegant feel. For some, open space shelves isn’t ideal, but for those looking at making the most of the room space given to you, this could be a good fit. | 2019-04-19T03:18:09 | http://www.designtoncasque.com/94a/best-over-the-toilet-storage/ |
All Mails in the Junk folder are Spams. All Mails outside the Junk folder are interesting messages called Hams.
The filter learns the interesting content and holds its knowledge in a small database.
Please note: The server version of the filter creates a separately database for each user.
A Mail arriving at the Inbox will be analysed by the filter and if it's spam content the filter moves this message automatically into the Junk folder. To train the filter drag and drop all spams - not identified by the filter - into the Junk folder.
The filter learns from day to day and after a short training it should be able to detect and move nearly all spams in the future itself.
If the filter inadvertently moves a good message into the Junk folder, just drag it back to the Inbox to allow the filter to correct its knowledge.
No further configuration needed: install and run it; simple One Click operation due to the seamless integration into the user interface of Outlook, Outlook Express and Lotus Notes application; SpartacusFilter is a real plug-in rather than a separate application; simple installation - no proxy or redirects!
Which plugin should I use - Server or Client side plugin?
If you administer a mail server environment with more than 20 clients we recommend to use the server side plugin. There is no additional network traffic (the client side plugin needs all the mail content to filter spam).
The mail database is encrypted (e.g. in domino server environment there is an option "Encrypt unencrypted mail before save to disk"). The server plugin cannot decrypt an encrypted message.
You have no administrative rights on the server (e.g., because of outsourcing of a server). | 2019-04-22T10:45:06 | http://spartacusfilter.com/en-us/products.htm |

It’s pretty apparent that having a ready-to-use color palette in the very beginning of your graphic design project is something that makes everything so much easier! That’s the reason why I always start my production with a color scheme and mood board. Though, I’ve never been a master of the color wheel who creates a beautifully matched pallet in a few clicks, getting one usually doesn’t take much time for me. How's that? Because I know where to get a perfect color palette for your next graphic design project, and here are my top sources!
Dribbble’s Popular section is always a good place to start your research.
Every creative knows that Dribbble is the ultimate source of inspiration, references and if you get lucky or popular — even insightful feedback on the work you share. However, it became even more useful in my design routine, when I started to use built-in Colors tool on its full.
All you need to do is to find a shot you like! There is a composed color palette right under the image. You can download it in .aco format for Adobe Photoshop or continue your research and click on one of the colors. It will start a visual search based on the color you've picked (and similar ones) across the whole Dribbble library. Nothing too fancy, but when it comes to the range Dribbble knows no rivals.
It’s a common thing when the project starts with a sketch, a concept, an image. And what I really appreciate in the case is a tool that builds a 5-6 color palette scheme from a single shot by approximating all colors on the source shot.
There are plenty to choose from, but I use a web-based color palette generator by Canva. It’s effortless — to get a scheme is as easy as upload an image, and always by hand (or on the bookmarks panel, if you like).
Maybe, I should’ve started this post with Adobe Color since it’s been around for a while. However, I’m a huge fan of casual solutions when they do the job. And I find myself getting pallets for my projects on the Adobe’s service quite rare these days. Nevertheless, you should definitely try it and decide if it’s for you or not.
Adobe Color offers a powerful tool for combining colors based on the preset harmonies and requiring no theory knowledge whatsoever. And the best part is a vast library of user-created combinations and palettes available for download and direct sync to your Adobe library, which is a very convenient way to get your swatches.
It's super beneficial when you already have a core color to build a scheme around. Also, you can import an image to Adobe Color and get your palette from it, just like with Canva color palette generator, but with additional settings.
It’s nothing more than my impression, but I believe, the design industry is full of amazing professionals willing to share their tools, skills, and experiences like no other.
Here is a short list of my latest favorites, but I assure you, there are so much more. So, if you’re up to some personalized and editorial content (like me), you will find more creators to follow with no sweat.
To finish on the highest note, I’m glad to share a set of 10 gradient Photoshop styles for overlaying watercolor paints from my recent pack Brushwork: Artistic Procreate & Photoshop brushes. | 2019-04-26T06:30:09 | https://www.veila.me/blog/where-to-get-perfect-color-palette-design-project |
A floral Syrah if I’ve ever smelled one, honeysuckle, violets; the nose is just gorgeous. There’s a meaty funkiness there too, with all that savory olive that I so adore in cool-climate Syrah. The ’15’s coming out of the Northern Rhone are a force to be reckoned with, buy, buy, buy, even these less expensive versions. This Syrah is probably made from the leftovers of the ’15 vintage and even it is good.
I haven’t exactly heard rave reviews of the cooperative of Tain L’Hermitage before. From what I understand they are basically a group of winemakers who make wine from some of the lesser vineyards around Hermitage and not much of it is usually good. 2015 is one of the better vintages in the history of the Northern Rhone so it’s like that one vintage in Napa where there was such a surplus of good wine that even Charles Shaw was kinda good.
2013: A clean and fresh syrah, I’m used to a little funkiness in my Faury but this one doesn’t have it. It’s just got a nice crunchy freshness to it that reminds me of why I like cool-climate syrah so much. The nose is all fresh plum and mineral accents with a floral element. It’s a super food friendly wine too with a barely perceptible oak. There’s some tannin there but it’s balanced and the acidity is in just the right place. It’s a pitch-perfect syrah. 93 pts.
2014 Faury: The Funk is back for 2014. I’m loving this wine, it’s even a little “cooler climate” oriented than the 13, which makes sense given the vintage. It’s brighter, crunchier, and meatier with a floral element too. There’s an iron, bloody element also. Perfect for a rainy day and a dish with mushrooms. No perceptible oak. 92 pts.
Faury has been one of my favorite wineries for quite a while. Their syrahs are just pure and clean. Unfortunately I didn’t get a chance to visit them on my trip over the summer and I’m kicking myself for not making more of an effort.
St. Joseph syrahs continue to be a medium-priced Northern Rhone with some stand out wineries. Faury is certainly one of them.
Somehow I didn’t take a picture of the winery so this photo looking towards the slopes of Côte-Rôtie will have to do.
Pulling into Stephane Ogier’s winery in Côte-Rôtie you immediately know that this tasting experience might be a little different. Very modern and austere, the winery feels a little like an outlier in the middle of all the old rustic stone buildings. Rather than a bell on a string you buzz a gate keypad and state your business. The gates open and you wind up a gravel road to a low angled glass and metal modern structure that almost looks like it’s part of the hill it was built on.
Stephane was off tasting in Portugal but we met with his “right hand man” Graeme Bott. Graeme’s a New Zealander and, after struggling through a few tastings in French, it was a relief to converse with someone completely fluent in English (I know, I need to learn French).
The barrel room is expansive and also modern, clean and bright, it’s more reminiscent of a larger California winery than anything we had seen up until this point in the Northern Rhone. We got started on the 2015’s in barrel and I couldn’t believe how open and finished these wines tasted. Graeme attributed this to the spectacular 2015 vintage which he puts right up there with 1990, 1999, and 2010. The wines had recently been racked which he felt made them more open and approachable even in barrel.
Graeme pulling barrel samples from the 2015 wines.
Stephane Ogier’s 2015 wines are defined by their balance, they aren’t on the lean side but they aren’t on the rich and full side either, they seem to walk the fine line between brawn and finesse. The 2014’s were a little more on the finesse side of things but didn’t lack for power.
Like many of the Northern Rhone wineries we encountered, Ogier seems to combine the best of the traditional wine-making techniques of the region with the best of the modern. He uses a little new oak and makes decisions about stem inclusion based on the vintage. Having studied in Burgundy, Ogier wants to make Syrahs of finesse and elegance. The Burgundian influence also shows in his philosophy of exploring distinct terroirs within the Côte-Rôtie appellation. They produce a Côte-Rôtie Village from younger vines, a Côte-Rôtie reserve, 6 single vineyard Côte-Rôties and two smaller parcel selections from within those single vineyards. Ogier also produces a wine called L’Ame Soeur which is from an as-yet unapproved Seysuel appellation on the other coast of the Rhone River.
The 2015 wine made from the goblet-trained vines of Montmain was rich and full but with an incredible floral aroma. The Fongeant, Cote-Bodin, and La Vialliere were also showing very well out of barrel which Graeme believed had to do not only with the vintage but also with the fact that the barrels had been recently racked.
The 2014 vintage was a trickier vintage than 2015, marked by lots of rain but a dry end of the summer, the wines tend to be more reserved than the 2015’s. We were able to taste the 2014 St. Joseph, the Côte-Rôtie Village, the Côte-Rôtie Reserve and the Seysuel Syrah. All were delicious, elegant Syrahs with floral and savory character. The star of the tasting was a 2012 Belle Helene which is a parcel select wine that Ogier makes; it was savory and umami, no sense of vegetal with an irresistible salted plum character.
It was a pleasure to meet Graeme and his lovely wife Julie (who helped us with dinner reservations at the bistro of the famed La Pyramide) at Stephane Ogier’s winery. I got the sense that, in the sea of modernity that is the Ogier winery, there is still a winemaker that respects the traditions of the Côte-Rôtie by celebrating the elegant, feminine side of Syrah.
Our meeting with Jean Gonon was much anticipated. We had heard about his magnetic personality and how much we would learn from our time with him. And all of it was true. Jean Gonon is a pleasure to be around. He’s articulate, has a good sense of wine in its global setting and he’s very knowledgable about wine in the Northern Rhone.
Domaine Gonon is run by siblings Pierre and Jean Gonon. As the younger brother, Jean was not necessarily expected to play such a large part in the family winery but he came back from college to do some seasonal work when his father became ill. The wine work intrigued him and he just kept doing it. After their father’s death, he and Pierre share all the work in the winery and have what Jean describes as a problem-free working relationship.
Gonon’s vineyard holdings are ten hectares and include their own vineyard holdings above the town of Tournon planted by their great grandfather. This area is referred to as Les Oliviers. Other grapes come from holdings in Mauve and parts of Raymond Trollat’s famed vineyard. These holdings are the ones from which they occasionally make their special Vielles Vignes bottling. The Tournon vineyards are mostly granitic soils.
When it comes to vinification, the Gonons are rather traditional. The wines are aged in neutral oak 600 liter casks. A high percentage of whole cluster is used in the vines but the percentage varies based on the vintage. The vineyards are organic and to that end the Gonons are very proud of the horse they’ve purchased to help plough the vineyard rows. Given the steep slopes, many vineyard owners in St. Joseph still resist ploughing in favor of easier to administer herbicide sprays. The horse has been a revelation.
The Gonons are also big believers in massale selection and are replacing clones when they can. They feel that the clones just produce and produce without moderation and are also generally shorter lived than the original vines that were planted. The old version of Syrah originally endemic to the region produces less grapes but the grapes are of higher quality and the vines tend to live longer. In the 1970s the region saw practically an obsession with clones and now in Jean’s estimation the entire St. Joseph appellation is 90% clone. Like Clusel-Roch in Côte-Rôtie and some of the other organic wineries in the Northern Rhone, turning the tide against clones to return the vineyards to their original historic version of Syrah is a pivotal concern.
The Gonons harvest as late as possible and Jean finds the current fashion and fascination with “fresh” wines in the global wine community rather amusing. In the Northern Rhone, Jean says, “freshness is not the thing, ripeness is the thing”. The struggle to ripen grapes fully is always the main concern. The grapes never get over-cooked. To that end the Gonons and, in fact, many of the winemakers in the Northern Rhone are very excited about the 2015 vintage. It was a consistently sunny vintage which has resulted in richer, darker, more tannic but perhaps less floral versions of Syrah.
The 2014 seemed to me a classic St. Joseph with its floral aromas and distinct mineral edge. It also has less tannin and more acidity. The 2013 was a lot like the 2014 with its elegant floral component. Jean had an interesting observation in which he referred to the aroma in cool-climate Syrah as “dead flowers”, I like this description for Northern Rhone Syrah, the wines often have a floral component (whether or not they include Viognier) but that floral component also has a meaty, rotting, almost bloody element to it.
We also got to taste a 2001 St. Joseph which took its time to open up but was a more rounded and fresh version of the 2013 and 2014 we tasted. A beautiful wine that Jean referred to as “…perfect for a winter day.” I’d have to agree, in the almost 100 degree weather we experienced while in the Northern Rhone the only place to drink these Syrah was the Gonons cellar or better to save them for a wintry day.
The Gonon cellar is dark and cold. Perfect for tasting brooding Syrah.
We had a spectacular and informative time with Jean Gonon. He’s an effusive, amiable and articulate representative of his winery and the Northern Rhone in general. | 2019-04-22T16:22:51 | https://solosyrah.wordpress.com/category/northern-rhone-wines/ |

Over the last few years I've morphed as a photographer toward shooting only fine art underwater imagery either as commissioned work or my own creative collaborations resulting in fine art limited edition prints. My 'studio' is now an outdoor 20 x 40 foot in-ground pool which, while heated, limits my shooting season to a mere six months of the year, from late-April to mid-October. Given our weather here in Ontario though, the majority of my shoots occur June to September each year.
The remaining months of the year are then spent on editing the results from that summers' work, while also developing new storyboards and creating outfits for next years’ planned shoots.
So you can well imagine the scrambling I had to do when an integral prop didn’t arrive in time for one extensively planned shoot in 2015. I had the model, the costumes I had redesigned or made myself from scratch, the makeup artist, BTS videographer and the assistant all ready to go on set when, 'surprise, surprise', my custom wig ordered from the U.S. failed to arrive as promised!! It has taken me this long to post about this shoot since I wanted to first edit the images to have something polished to show you.
That being said, everyone on set that day was absolutely amazing as we quickly pulled together a whole new game plan. My whole house essentially looks like the prop/costume department from a movie set, and it wasn’t long before we had a new selection of outfits, backdrops and props ready for the day, ultimately capturing some unexpected but truly beautiful shots.
So instead of lemons and lemonade, I actually ended up getting some rather fine wine from the pool that day. LOL My beautiful model Cherry, was truly extraordinary and as a result, I'm thrilled that one of the images of her from this shoot is being displayed as part of the Fleck Fine Art Group showing in downtown Toronto during May of this year.
Beside all the costume design, sewing and other hats I wear, I normally also do all the makeup for these shoots myself. But with all the planning complexities already involved with this shoot, I decided to find myself a makeup artist. I met Pamela Price while at the MAC makeup counter last spring, we got to chatting and next thing you know, Pam was eagerly on board for this project. She'd never done makeup for an underwater shoot before, but from the results you would never have known that. Underwater makeup does require some special products, techniques and skills, and you should be prepared to pay the makeup artist for the full day, since makeup does need refreshing throughout the shoot. It was wonderful to also have an extra pair of hands when it came to assisting the model in and out of various costumes or the pool itself.
Another hero of the day was my friend and fellow PPOC photographer Kristina Laukkanen, who spent about a day and half shooting BTS above-the-water video sequences for me. I still have to merge the video she captured with the underwater video sequences I also shot to provide a good representation of what actually goes on during one of these unique shoots. Stay tuned for the video….
Finally, I have to thank my wonderful husband Rod who does so much to make everything happen. He wrangles props, builds things as we need them, steams outfits, cleans and maintains the pool, prepares the meals for everyone on set that day, and many other chores. Thank you my love!!
Really all I end up having to do ultimately is just sit on the bottom of the pool lurking, waiting for the next great shot….. | 2019-04-23T09:51:10 | http://www.margarethines.com/blog/when-life-gives-you-lemonsduring-a-pool-shoot |
An aerial view of the complex of structures uncovered in Trench P on the Ness.
The discovery of a building in 2003, was confirmation of what was already suspected — that there was a mass of archaeology on the tip of the Ness of Brodgar.
Little did we know then that this structure was just a fragment of a massive Neolithic complex on the Ness — a prehistoric site that is turning our understanding of Neolithic Orkney on its head.
At its zenith, in the main phase that we are currently exploring (dating from c.3100BC), the Ness was dominated by huge freestanding buildings enclosed by a massive stone wall.
This was much more than a domestic settlement: the size, quality, and architecture of these structures, together with evidence for tiled roofs, coloured walls, and over 800 examples of decorated stone — not to mention the rich assemblages of artefacts recovered from them — all add to an overall sense of the Ness being special in some way.
Although the site’s function no doubt changed over time, during this peak period we can see that it was a place of meeting, of coming together for people from all over Orkney and probably from outside the archipelago too.
The archaeology suggests that they were feasting and exchanging ideas and objects, while the site may have also hosted rituals and celebrations of the important “political” and celestial events that were important to this evidently vibrant society. | 2019-04-20T18:35:33 | http://www.nessofbrodgar.co.uk/about/ |

A question that is often asked in our CFSC/CRFSC classes is “can I bring a firearm into the US?” The simple answer is: yes, you can!
Canadians who lawfully own firearms may apply for a permit to temporarily import firearms into the US for certain valid purposes. Generally, those purposes are hunting, and to attend a competitive shooting event or gun show. In the recent past, applicants completing the ATF Form 6NIA, the form required for temporary import, would have to provide proof of one of these authorized activities.
Recent changes to gun importation rules have actually made it a little easier for Canadians – who do not require a nonimmigrant visa to enter the US. The ATF revised their form in 2014, and updated their FAQ (frequently asked questions) on their website. Nonimmigrant aliens (which includes Canadian citizens),may apply using the Form 6NIA without requiring a hunting licence, or invitation to a competitive shooting event or gun show.
The turn around on a faxed application was about 4 days, in our experience. The form was sent back with a permit number stamped onto it, and was signed and dated with the ATF approval. Approved forms are valid for 1 year from the date of approval. There is no fee to apply.
The process for Canadians interested in bringing firearms to the US temporarily is quite simple and the permit is easy to obtain.
Canadians who own registered restricted firearms in Canada will find that they may already have an Authorization to Transport (ATT) for the purposes of transporting their restricted firearms to and from a port of exit/entry from Canada, including a border crossing or airport.
There are numerous gun shows and competitive shooting events, and target ranges throughout the US, and many gun clubs in the US are happy to have out of state members. With the ATF Form 6NIA process, and your Canadian ATT, it is very simple to legally bring your Canadian restricted firearms to the US. | 2019-04-22T21:07:58 | http://gtagunsafety.com/2016/05/bringing-firearms-us/ |

One thing that is common among all my favorite cities is good street food. I love experiencing a city that is vibrant with life on the streets. I love the excitement of the people and the craziness of community that buys and sells everything on the roadside. In some special places in the world some of the best meals were served from a vendor on a flimsy plastic plate or napkin wrapped delight.
In La Paz we experienced a return of street markets. The street vendors were endless; little stalls stuffed with produce, meat, blankets and DVD’s filling up the hillside with everything imaginable to buy. Thousands of people scrambled from vendor to vendor weaving in and out of the sidewalk and street and carrying bags filled with the day’s purchases.
I could spend days and days wondering markets like these. I do not even buy anything. I enjoy meandering from stall to stall listening to one vendor describe the perfect mango, or another flaunt a superior winter coat and the buyers negotiating for a better price. There is so much culture fit into these streets and I like to roam and soak it in deep into my lungs. And my stomach too!
Quite often in these markets we find men and women selling local street side fresh food. There are doughnut-like things with a molasses syrup, roasted turkeys or pork loins to be made into sandwiches and an abundant array of herbal and thick drinks served out of buckets. Occasionally we are stopped by an intense aroma that causes us to swirl our head around looking for the source and occasionally this smell is linked to a vendor with a hoard of people huddled around grabbing for some of the delicious eats. This is how we found lunch one day. Two women had joined forces to cook up several pots of food and carry them to their sidewalk restaurant. We had a heaping bowl of soup, pasta with lentils, potatoes and a salsa that made our mouths tingle. And it cost $1.15 for the two of us! We sat on a step and slurped down our lunch watching the people flock to this sidewalk deliciousness.
Further on we explored the Iglesia San Francisco that was originally built in 1548. There was a beautiful gold altar and a rooftop terrace that offered views of the city. The plaza below the church is a central meeting point with a constant stream of people enjoying the sun and people watching.
Anyone who has been in Bolivia probably has been affected by or in some way has a story about a protest. The Bolivians seemingly protest constantly. Carmen and I were very fortunate to not have any of our regional bus trips impeded, but we did meet countless travelers that were delayed. The protests involve road blocks and fireworks. We watched from a nearby bridge in La Paz as hundreds of students marched along the main corridor. There was a steady booming of explosions as the students stuffed rockets into makeshift bamboo tubes held high in the air.
Protests are common to all social groups. Bolivia has one of the most complex populations in South America with the heritage and culture of the people originating from hundreds of different indigenous tribes. There is even a flag composed of a quilt pattern of vibrant colors to demonstrate the multitude and coming together of these people to create a nation.
Just as there is a patchwork of cultural traditions in Bolivia, there is also a patchwork of informal transit. No formal bus line exists. Instead private collective vans, called micros, roam the streets calling out their destinations from the window. Carmen and I crammed into several of these vans to maneuver our way around the city. The competition for passengers makes for some aggressive driving. Therefore there is a planning mascot (a happy little zebra) that attempts to restore order to the streets by designating specific passenger drop-off locations.
We could not visit La Paz without seeing San Pedro prison for ourselves. We read a great book called Marching Powder that described the life and experiences of one inmate named Thomas McFadden. Thomas lived in the prison following an arrest for drug trafficking. The prison is unique because it is in the center of La Paz and nothing is provided to the inmates by the government, not even a cell. Inmates rely on their families, friends and personal bank accounts to buy a cell and buy food in the prison. There are restaurants, stores and mini apartments all housed within the prison walls. Every prisoner gets a job in the prison, cooking, passing messages or even giving tours. Thomas started the tours of the prison, but they have since increased dramatically in price. The most amazing thing is that prisoners are allowed to bring their families into the prison. The wives and children are allowed to come and go freely throughout the day. Carmen and I showed up at the prison to watch the door and see the families and people living inside. Most of what we could see was this enormous trash truck parked tight against the doorway and prisoners carrying suspicious heavy sacks “trash” then covering them with loose debris. I would not doubt that they still make cocaine there.
La Paz streets are intense with colors. Brightly colored llama and alpaca wool fabrics hang from shop windows in the area that has been nicknamed gringo ghetto. I bought myself a soft alpaca sweater knowing how warm and life-saving they can be in the cold. Other streets contained buildings boldly painted in with blues, yellows and reds.
La Paz is unlike any city that we have visited. The biggest city in Bolivia is unlike lacks modern western influence; there is a rustic and rawness to the streets that is captivated and a history that is exciting. Thousands of white-washed buildings with clay roves sit perched on the mountains that overlook the city. The city is, in a way, shaped like a huge bowl and the culture and delights inside are just ready to be gobbled up.
Potosí is a city of contradictions. The contrasts of both riches and defeat are deeply rooted into the high mountains; the history of the city is glorified in majestic architecture and the poverty weathered into the faces of the people. At first we knew little about the city other than there was a silver mine and it had an altitude unmatched by any other city of the world. We discovered a place exploding in culture and experiences that we will never forget.
The city is breathtakingly high in the mountains. We avoided the taxi stand and trudged up the hillside with our backpacks on. After a six hour bus ride a thirty minute walk at 13,500ft (4100m) seemed doable. We are a little crazy sometimes. At each block we sucked in deep breaths of oxygenless air and held onto our chests as our throbbing hearts tried to escape. A little light-headed and we arrived at our hostel ready to explore the city.
Potosí has a history entwined with Spanish colonial dominance and the production of silver. Mid-sixteenth century a meandering llama shepherd on the mountainside discovered silver flowing from beneath his campfire. Within decades the Spanish had colonized and created the city of Potosí beneath the cerro rico (rich hill).
The Spanish forced indigenous and African slaves to work the mines months at a time without seeing light. The population of Potosí grew so much in the 17th century that over 15,000 men worked in the mines at one time and the city’s population exceeded that of Paris. Potosí quickly became the richest and most populous city in South America.
The mines are still a central part of Potosí. They are less productive than they once were, but nevertheless over 1,500 men continue to work in over 500 mines that have swiss-cheesed through the mountain. Carmen and I decided to see the mines for ourselves. The unique part of visiting the mines is that tourists are supposed to bring gifts for the miners within. With our coveralls, rubber boots and headlamps we tromped our way to the miners’ market. We purchased a stick of dynamite, a detonator and nitroglycerine as an explosive gift (only $3!) and a couple liters of soda for the other miners.
Another purchase was a bulbous bag of coca leaves. Coca has been used in these mountains for thousands of years and it is drastically different from the connotations associated with cocaine. The miners chew and macerate 50-200 stemless leaves and they keep the wad in a huge ball in the side of their mouths. Throughout long hours of work the coca leaves provide energy, alertness and they suppress the need to eat. An added benefit is that they help ease the effects of altitude sickness. It takes 1kg of coca leaves to make 1g of cocaine along with many nasty chemicals, so chastising coca is similar to relating a cup of coffee to methamphetamines.
The mines were hot, 95°F (35°C) and wet and dusty. We started in the candeleria mine and we worked our way 1000ft (300m) horizontally into the mountain. The caverns were created 300-400 years ago and unfortunately I am taller than the smaller natives that dug the mines. I hunched and squat-walked through the water and muck. Then there was only a seemingly solid section of rock and an obscured cavity just larger enough to crawl on our stomachs. The air was thick and the walls wet and the rock dark with an occasional sparkle of silver or pyrite or a stripe of yellow sulfur.
“Vamos, vamos vamos!” Our guide yelled at us. We rushed along the tunnel to an opening and he pushed us against the wall. The slow rumble of the mine became louder; suddenly a two ton cart full of rocks rushes passed us with one miner clinging onto the back. Our guide stuffs a bottle of Fanta in the cart and a drawn out “graciaaaas” reaches us from the depths of the darkness.
We climbed to the inner depths of the mine. We would poke our heads down a little hovel then scale the dark cliffs within. At first we were all cautious of the 300 year old pieces of wood that braced the openings, but when looking into the abyss all of us scratched and clung onto every foothold and support we could find. Finally we reached the bottom, level four and 275 ft (80m) down. We found a thirty-two year old miner that looked over fifty that spent all day hammering two holes for dynamite. At the end of each day he would set off the charges and carry out the rocks in a backpack.
The lives of the men are hard in the mines. The expected lifespan of a miner rarely exceeds fifty years and most die from silicosis, falling rocks or misplaced explosives. Children also work in the mines; boys as young as ten years work to support their families. One thing is for certain, they can earn four times more in the mines than in the city of Potosí. So the men work extremely hard for a few ounces of silver and their lives remain difficult.
The dichotomy of life in Potosí extends to religion as well. Outside in the light is a community passionate about the Catholic Church. Potosí has several beautiful colonial churches and the San Francisco was constructed in 1547 as a slightly smaller version of St. Peter’s Basilica. In the darkness of the mines the people pray to a different god, “Tio,” the devil of the mountain. Their daily offerings of 96% moonshine-like alcohol and coca leaves to clay statues in the caves are a way of satisfying the mountain so that they remain protected and the veins of silver remain plentiful. The miners live these two lives: hours of darkness and heat in the mountain and a life of family and church in the city. After four hours of clambering around in the mines the light at the end of the tunnel was thrilling. Squinting and sweating I finally straightened out and looked into the city of Potosí.
Potosí was also home to one of the strictest nunneries. The upper-class Spanish followed a regiment with the lives of their children. The first born married wealthy into the colonial upper class, the third born served the military and took care of the parents in old age. The second child was dedicated to the church. In the case of Potosí families paid an equivalent of $100,000 as a dowry for their daughter to become a Carmelite nun at St. Teresa’s. The rules of the nunnery were so strict that the nuns could only speak one hour per day and there was no communication to the outside world. Families could visit one hour per month and they were not allowed to see or touch their daughter.
We observed a trend in many of the religious paintings. The virgin Mary appears in many places as would be expected in a catholic country, but the shapeless mound that is typically meant to be non-seductive had been adapted in Potosí to be la sagrada virgin de cerro rico. During pre-colonial times each mountain was a god, with colonialism the traditions of the indigenous people merged with the icons of the catholic church.
Other paintings and figures show a bloody version of Jesus on the cross. This graphic imagery comes from the indigenous painters intertwining their own pain and suffering from the Spanish colonial rule into their faith in a new religion.
Walking the streets of Potosí we were constantly welcomed with a splash of history and tradition. A 400 year old church and a cobble-stoned path were all common sites. On one occasion we crossed a mother and children each wearing a traditional bowler hats. In the evening the brightly lit cathedral was a beacon of the city.
I too needed enlightenment and getting a haircut seemed to be the easiest way to lighten the weight on my shoulders. I had been scared to get a haircut for many months because Argentine men have notoriously horrible hair styles. Throughout our travels we saw multiple rat-tails, lobster-tails and mullets and I refused to pay for something so wrong. In Potosí I found a nice shop, but I still shook my head vehemently when the barber pointed at a poster of boys with mohawks, fauxhawks and bowl cuts.
With my ears lowered we were in search of some food. We found a great little restaurant with some local quechua favorites. Kala purca is a local stew of meat and potatoes that arrives with a scalding volcanic rock bubbling and gurgling in the bowl. Another night we found a street side snack of lomito and milanesa sandwiches cooked out of tiny stalls. Each sandwich was doused with an array of sauces, topped with fries and spicy salsa.
Potosí is a charming colonial city. Carmen and I loved the historic architecture and the rich culture throughout the city. From this one city, we were gaining an understanding of how Bolivia’s history affects its present.
The next morning was cold…real cold, but it was expected when sleeping at 4500m (14,800ft). We bundled into the jeep at sunrise and we were off to a whole new set of destinations and jaw-dropping sights. The name of the park that we have been exploring for the last few days is called Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna National Reserve. The park is one of the most visited sights in Bolivia and it contains some of the most beautiful, color-rich and grand natural earth formations on the planet. The laguna colorada was one of the most impressive thus far. This small lake contains all sorts of minerals, mostly borax, but it is the red algae that really flourishes here. The water was still and the air cold allowing for a hazy reflection of triangular mountains beyond.
Further along the drastic landscape was a bleak desert surrounded by colorful volcanic mountains. We stopped at a rock forest with hundreds of angular and twisted formations that are remnants from the last eruption many thousands of years ago. The most famous is the arbol de piedra, but we had great fun just climbing around all the enormous rocks.
We romped through the mountains climbing an occasional mountain and blazing our way through the highland deserts. The next stop was a series of five lagoons that the flamingos use a breeding sancuary. I never realized that these birds enjoyed high altitudes.
There were times that the terrain became pretty rough and it was nice to have a guide that had been driving these roads and trails for 15 years.
The landscape throughout the day was mesmerizing. Everywhere we looked was an beautiful snow-capped volcano, a colorful mountain, bright blue skies, multiple lagoons and thousands of llamas.
Our jeep caravan included an amazing Bolivian woman that cooked for us. While we played around at the valle de rocas she whipped together an delicious meal of chicken milanesa, noodles and salad. Of course it was served with the only drink that South Americans seem to know: coca cola.
Evening approached quickly, but we did have time to explore the cemetario de trenes just outside of Uyuni. There used to be reliable and functional train traffic in Bolivia. In the 1940′ hundreds of train cars and engines were abandoned due to rapidly depleting mining resources. Now it is just a heap of rusted metal, surrounded by fields of endless trash, nevertheless it made for a good photo opportunity with friends.
That night we prepped ourselves for what was going to be the saltiest day of our lives. | 2019-04-25T18:36:19 | https://4feet2mouths.com/category/latin-america/bolivia/ |

Many of the contest submissions depict time with family and friends. The most popular activities shared were dancing and singing. Selected by a panel of more than ten judges, the Grand Prize winner is Adrien Colon, dancing the salsa on a magical flat rock on a beach in Ibiza, Spain. In addition to being featured in the Big Game spot, Adrien also won an all-expense paid trip to his happy place, anywhere in the world.
The runner up prize winner is Katherine Nunez and the video of her swinging from a rope off a boat high above a beautiful bay in Aruba will also be featured in the commercial. Her video was shot by Nunez’s husband while the two were on their honeymoon.
In addition to consumer generated content, the Big Game commercial features 22 principal actors and 44 extras. It was directed by award-winning feature film, music video and commercial director, Jeffrey Darling, and shot in Miami, Florida this past November. The new campaign will also run on YouTube, Buzzfeed and iHeartRadio in 30 and 15 second versions to spread happiness far and wide. | 2019-04-22T22:24:13 | http://www.footballinhighheels.com/2019/01/29/popular-wine-company-shares-super-bowl-ad/ |

They keep us warm during cold seasons and cool during hot seasons, do our laundry, help us make breakfast, and help us clean. When any of these appliances become damaged or break down, it can cause great inconvenience in the house, even if it’s a simple appliance like a toaster. Therefore, it’s important that as soon as you notice a minor problem with any of your home machines, you should get a pro for appliance repair in St Paul. Appliance repair professionals have the much-needed skills and experience to deal with various home appliances, and they can get your appliance back up and running in no time.
Appliance repair costs may vary due to certain factors. These factors can include the type of machine that needs repair. Generally, small appliance repair in St Paul is less expensive compared to large home appliance repair. The extent of the damage to the particular machine also factors in as some appliances just have some minor repair problems while others need more time to get fixed because the issue may be rather serious or even hazardous. Some home appliances might require new parts in the repair which will add to the costs. Furthermore, these appliances are made by different companies which have different standards compared to others. Repairing top-rated machines from quality brands requires specific skill sets and parts that many service vans carry.
St Paul appliance repair costs also get affected depending on what season it is. Appliances such as ACs are quite expensive when it comes to repairs, especially during the summer season. Prices hike because the demand for the repair services is much higher. To get a microwave fixed, it might cost you around $70 per hour including the parts. On average, it would cost you around $100 to $150 for small appliances and for bigger appliances slightly higher at $100 and even $400.
Q. Can I do my own appliance repair in St Paul?
A. Sometimes, St Paul appliance repair can be a DIY project, especially for smaller appliances. You can follow some DIY steps in regards to the problem at hand and fix it. However, it’s advised that you only do this when you’re confident that you can repair the problem. Guesswork can leave your appliance damaged beyond repair or expose you to electricity risks.
Q. Does the St Paul appliance repair happen in my home or at the contractor’s workshop?
A. Usually, the St Paul appliance repair contractor will advise on whether the machine needs to be taken to their shop or they can do an in-house repair. In-house repairs are much more economical as they don’t require transportation services which might add to the overall costs.
Q. Should I get a small appliance repair in St Paul or buy a new appliance altogether?
A. This will depend on the extent of the damage and the age of the small appliance. Some problems are minor, and all you may need would be a small appliance repair in St Paul to get it up and running again. It’s recommended that you get a new appliance when the current one keeps breaking frequently or the repair costs total more than half of the purchase price. Also many newer models run more efficiently and could potentially save you money. | 2019-04-25T14:43:43 | https://www.bheldphotography.com/ |
Since 1999, I made a decision to shrink-to-grow. No, I didn’t get shorter or lose weight; I started to shrink all my New Year’s resolutions and ambitious annual goals into a One Word vision statement. The One Word exercise has become a focal point throughout the year that brings simplicity and clarity into a very complex world. God has transformed me in many ways through this exercise and has brought truth and revelation into my life. One Word shapes and molds me into the person God desires for me to become.
Generosity means irrational giving. It is allowing God to take us to the next level of blessing those around us. It is moving from a mindset of “there is never enough” to “there is enough” and then to “there is more than enough.” Being generous means having an abundance, not scarcity, mindset—giving and serving out of the overflow. God is generous to us, so why can’t we be generous back to God and others? I desire to be released from limitations I put on myself and others put on me. Generous living is filled with sacrifice, surrender, blessing and miracles. It is over-the-top, bet-the-farm living, burn-the-boats living. I want to see God transform my heart into a generous heart, not just a giving heart. Giving is what is expected, being generous is unexpected.
Last week, I went to Romania to see our ministry in action and was reminded of what a generous heart looks like. I have known Daniel since 2009, but I have never visited him in Romania even though he has been in the states several times for FCA training. He has told me about his work over the past ten years with the gypsies by doing sports camps as outreaches to the villages. It was life-changing to see first-hand the impact of his ministry as we went to the village to meet several of the families. The kids came running into the snow-covered street to jump into Daniel’s arms. They gathered around him to sing “Jesus Loves Me.” Daniel was generous toward the “least of these” with his time and resources. Not just once, but for years. Daniel knows that when we are generous, God multiplies our giving.
He was openhanded and bighearted towards them. No restrictions. No limitations. Just generous in loving, giving and caring. Lives were impacted because Daniel’s heart was overflowing with generosity. Like Proverbs 11:25 says, “those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.” Because of Daniel’s generosity, the gypsies were refreshed, he was refreshed and God was blessed! Go generous and see what God will do in 2019!
Dear Lord God, we want to live openhanded and bighearted this year. No holding back. Teach us how to live generously every day. Just like Daniel, we want to impact entire communities because of a generous heart. In the name of Jesus I pray, amen. | 2019-04-18T16:38:33 | https://www.fca.org/in-action/2019/01/30/go-generous |
Spider-Man: Homecoming lead Tom Holland and producer Amy Pascal are coming together for another movie, but this time it's not about a young superhero. Recent news states that Pascal Pictures acquired the film rights to Beneath a Scarlet Sky, the historical fiction by Mark Sullivan. It can’t be a coincidence that the news came out in the same week that the book became a best-seller on Amazon.
The novel Beneath a Scarlet Sky is set during World War II. The carefree Italian teenager named Pino Lella wants nothing to do with the war, but after his family home in Milan is bombed and destroyed he finds himself helping Jews escape over the Alps. After a twist of fate, the young man becomes the personal driver of one of the highest-ranked Nazi soldiers. Will Pino be able to fight in secret and spy against the Nazis or will he cave?
Tom Holland seems like a good choice for Beneath a Scarlet Sky, or whatever glorious title the producers seem fit. His filmography speaks for itself. The Untitled Spider-Man: Homecoming Sequel (2019) aside, he is starring in 4 other movies including The Current War, to be released this year. The young actor is on fire, a view that is apparently shared by the producers of his last movie. | 2019-04-21T10:23:54 | https://www.sinemia.com/movie-news/tom-holland-will-be-lead-in-beneath-a-scarlet-sky |

We’re a little late about announcing National Reading Group Month, but there’s still two weeks left for you to participate if you are part of a reading group.
What is it exactly and when was it formed? National Reading Group Month is an initiative of the Women’s National Book Association (WNBA). Founded in 1917, WNBA promotes literacy, a love of reading, and women’s roles in the community of the book.
According to the Dallas Morning News: The Cutting Season is a riveting thriller that intertwines two murders separated across more than a century.
Taut, hauntingly resonant, and beautifully written, The Cutting Season is at once a thoughtful meditation on how America reckons its past with its future, and a high-octane page-turner that unfolds with tremendous skill and vision.
Born to a Russian family of lower nobility, Xenia, an eccentric dreamer who cares little for social conventions, falls in love with Andrei, a charismatic soldier and singer in the Empress’s Imperial choir. Though husband and wife adore each other, their happiness is overshadowed by the absurd demands of life at the royal court and by Xenia’s growing obsession with having a child—a desperate need that is at last fulfilled with the birth of her daughter. But then a tragic vision comes true, and a shattered Xenia descends into grief, undergoing a profound transformation that alters the course of her life. Turning away from family and friends, she begins giving all her money and possessions to the poor. Then, one day, she mysteriously vanishes.
Years later, dressed in the tatters of her husband’s military uniform and answering only to his name, Xenia is discovered tending the paupers of St. Petersburg’s slums. Revered as a soothsayer and a blessed healer to the downtrodden, she is feared by the royal court and its new Empress, Catherine, who perceives her deeds as a rebuke to their lavish excesses. In this evocative and elegantly written tale, Dean reimagines the intriguing life of Xenia of St. Petersburg, a patron saint of her city and one of Russia’s most mysterious and beloved holy figures. This is an exploration of the blessings of loyal friendship, the limits of reason, and the true costs of loving deeply.
At the turn of the twentieth century, in a rural stretch of the Pacific Northwest, a reclusive orchardist, William Talmadge, tends to apples and apricots as if they were loved ones. A gentle man, he’s found solace in the sweetness of the fruit he grows and the quiet, beating heart of the land he cultivates. One day, two teenage girls appear and steal his fruit from the market; they later return to the outskirts of his orchard to see the man who gave them no chase. Feral, scared, and very pregnant, the girls take up on Talmadge’s land and indulge in his deep reservoir of compassion. Just as the girls begin to trust him, men arrive in the orchard with guns, and the shattering tragedy that follows will set Talmadge on an irrevocable course not only to save and protect but also to reconcile the ghosts of his own troubled past.

Aim: Due to huge demand of citric acid, there is a need to find alternatives for its efficient production either using low-cost substrates or by improving the potency of the fermentation microorganisms. Materials and Methods: In this study, microbial production of citric acid was performed by Aspergillus niger. Solid and suspension state fermentation was carried out using biodiesel waste, i.e. the oilseed cake of Pongamia pinnata (honge) as a substrate for the comparative study of citric acid production using A. niger. After the estimation, the concentration of citric acid was found to be more in suspension state fermentation than in solid state. Hence, the further analysis was carried out using suspension culture. In the first stage, weight was varied, and the optimum weight was found out to be 12.5 g. Then keeping this optimum weight as constant, the inoculum size was varied, also keeping the optimum pH 6 and temperature 32°C constant. The rpm of suspension state was kept 100. Through this, optimum inoculum size was obtained. Results and Discussion: The yield of citric acid in solid state fermentation (SSF) was found to be 4.74 mg in 12.5 g of substrate and suspension state was 9.6 mg/ml. Conclusion: Suspension state fermentation method gives a higher yield of citric acid using oil seed cake as the substrate from A. niger than SSF method. The highest yield of 10.43 mg/ml of citric acid was obtained by taking substrate weight 12.5 g and inoculum size 275*104 spores/ml by suspension state fermentation method. | 2019-04-21T20:08:54 | http://www.greenpharmacy.info/index.php/ijgp/article/view/2011 |
Higher education institutions need to focus on building deep, lasting relationships with students in order to succeed in the new education marketplace.
Over the past decade, we have shifted rapidly from what Peter Drucker characterized as a “knowledge economy” to what is more accurately described as a learning economy — a dynamic, evolving environment in which individuals must continually invest in their personal and professional development.
The traditional approach to the lifelong learning market has been to assemble a course or catalog of courses and then sell them to as many students as possible. In the current market, there are some obvious problems with this approach.
First, because of what the Web now enables, it’s easy for almost anyone to put together a course and promote it. Competition is growing, and it’s as likely to come from the other side of the country or the world as it is from across town; from a solo subject matter expert as from a large organization.
Next, in many cases, very good courses or “course-like” options (think: TED, for example) are available for free or at very low cost. How will you stand out? How will you win the transaction battle in an increasingly competitive and noisy marketplace?
Finally — and most importantly — one-time interventions are rarely enough these days. The learning economy demands that people learn continually. Some of that will happen in classes, but most of it will happen much less formally through, for example, Web searches and social networks.
If you aren’t engaging people in these less formal spaces, thinking of the potential fourth or fifth class when you sell the first class or building relationships, then you aren’t building a fan base of people eager to participate in your educational offerings. Without relationships, you simply roll the transactional dice every time you put out a catalog.
Yes, extreme. I have a colleague in the blogging world who argues that every post you put onto the Web needs to be “insanely useful.” People come to expect that from the best blogs — which are completely free. Imagine what they will expect from the classroom!
It also suggests that what gets delivered in the classroom has to really stand out. Not just the content, important as that is, but the also the delivery and overall experience. Remember, free dominates on the Web. Whatever you charge for has to be exceptional.
Ironically, this means you’re probably going to have to give a lot away to convince people that what you hope to charge them for is really of exceptional value.
This may mean, for example, blog posts, videos, or Webinars that deliver practical learning value and set the stage for more in-depth experiences. As John Jantsch, creator of the highly-popular Duct Tape Marketing brand argues, organizations need to learn from successful Internet marketers: You have to offer free that is better than most paid.
Building on the concept of value, I believe it is going to be increasingly important for continuing education and professional development providers to demonstrate impact.
By “impact” I don’t mean that “x” number of students attended, or completed, or received a certificate from a particular program. Nor do I mean that they filled out post-session smile sheets that give the course or instructor good ratings.
I mean that the program actually resulted in a meaningful change in their performance over time.
Employers that fund continuing education experiences are increasingly going to expect that these experiences actually “move the dial.” Learners who have to invest their own time and money will expect the same.
This means more longitudinal evaluations. It means more controlled studies of retention and application. It also means more monitoring of the Web to see what you customers are saying about the quality of the learning experiences you offer.
If all of this sounds challenging, it is. But I also think it means the bar for lifelong learning is being raised dramatically — and that, in my opinion, is great news.
Organizations have more opportunities than ever to build deep, and truly lifelong, relationships with learners. This is an opportunity not only to educate, but also to lead the industries, fields and communities you serve. We are in the midst of what I see as a veritable revolution in the market for lifelong learning. Organizations that embrace the changes I describe here will position themselves well as leaders of that revolution.
To learn more about how institutions can adapt to the new higher education marketplace, check out Cobb’s most recent book, Leading the Learning Revolution was published by AMACOM in January 2013.
I absolutely agree that relationship building is the key to attracting students in today’s culture. What are some strategies you would suggest for institutions interested in doing this?
You might want to check out the Marketing CE series on this site for some good tips on how to reach lifelong learners. Most of the marketing tactics discussed are very personal and depend heavily on relationship building.
I agree that, in today’s culture, what with the myriad learning opportunities offered on the Internet, institutions need to focus on personalizing the learning experience in order to remain relevant.
Frank – I second Rhonda’s advice. Additionally, I think it is important to recognize that it is a long term process – as relationships tend to be – that generally starts well before the first transaction. As the writer of an article on this site put it a while back, it starts with understanding your audience.
I’m a big advocate of being present and listening/ observing in the places where your prospective learners tend to be and leveraging the knowledge you gain to provide as much value as possible. I discuss this briefly and provide an example in The White Magic of Listening to Your Market. It’s also a topic I go into in detail in the book.
At first, it seems counterintuitive for institutions to “offer free that is better than most paid,” but it makes sense the way it’s described in this article. Good food for thought.
There seems to be growing awareness of the need to demonstrate impact. I’ve noticed more of an effort by colleges/universities to show their programs’ measureable benefits, from subway ads to stories on their home pages that highlight successful graduates.
However, I have yet to see hard, quantitative data on impact. How would you measure this? Are there any mechanisms or methods you can suggest? If it’s not “post-session smile sheets,” as you say, is it follow-up phone interviews, etc.? Qualitative data like success stories are good, but I think there’s still value in having numbers.
Otto – This might very well be an area in which I write a follow up book: there is a lot to be said about it. I don’t have examples of college/university efforts in this area (if any readers know of some, please share), though I have seen medical societies do this. Indeed, I think continuing medical education may be the field that ends up leading the way in this area.
To provide meaningful quantitative data really requires assessment prior to the learning experience, assessment after the learning experiences, and the cooperation of the learner and/or management at an organization in conducting follow-on assessments, interviews, and other types of evaluation activities over an extended period of time.
I’m not arguing that providers need to go to these lengths on everything they offering, but I do think selective sampling along these lines should be done. I less formal – and correspondingly less scientific – approach would be to consistently send out follow up surveys to learners (or, as you suggest, to conduct phone interviews) at regular intervals after a training or education experience to test for both retention and application.

Software-defined networking (SDN) is one of the biggest disruptions the networking industry has ever seen. While SDN and related technologies, such as network virtualization and network functions virtualization (NFV), offer both enterprises and network service providers the opportunity to make their networks more agile, automated, and transformative to the business, there are many unanswered questions.
Enterprise Management Associates surveyed early SDN adopters among enterprises and network service providers to understand how organizations are using SDN, network virtualization and NFV. More importantly, the research study revealed just how prepared these early adopters are for managing these technologies — and how you can use what they have learned.

On 26th May 2006, Building magazine ran an article ('The City of Broken Dreams - How Birmingham Lost The Plot') criticising Birminghams current loss of vision and confidence in its regeneration programme, particularly when compared to the citys achievements of 1985 to 1998 a period the article described as Birminghams "golden years".
Overlooking any errors and editorial bias, Building magazines drive-by valuation does begin to raise the issue of development impasse as a result of weakened civic leadership. The recent dismantling of municipal responsibilities has swept away the traditional civic elite lead on regeneration, and replaced it with an unelected and invisible foot-loose growth coalition. This situation is not unique to Birmingham.
The notion of the civic elite the association of local political leaders with local commercial interests as the lead on urban development was, in modern times, invented in Birmingham. This was the subject of the lunchtime lecture at CABE's offices in London on 9th May 2005.
And it is certainly the case that the relational model established by Joseph Chamberlain for the 1875 Artisans Dwellings Act (which led to the setting out of Corporation Street, etc.) continued, moreorless unchanged, for another hundred years, culminating in the delivery of the ICC, Centenary Square, Victoria Square, etc. in the 1980s and early 1990s.
Birmingham has re-imagined itself through a comprehensive package of aesthetic improvements designed to create an environment that appeared [my emphasis] safe, attractive, and above, all, profitable ..."resulting in the British doughnut, a lump of indifferent carbohydrate with jam in the middle...rich inner-city development surrounded by acres of gloom .
The challenges of mid-nineteenth century urban development the desire for small government and low rates, the threat of both the disordered environment and the power of outside bodies that led to civic elites centred on local borough government as the best way forward are no different from the challenges now faced at the start of the 21st century. The significant difference, though, is in who gets to set the agenda and in how delivery of this agenda can be tied to issues of public value .
A recent case study on Birmingham carried out by the Work Foundation notes that, in Birmingham, there are many powerful organisations which are willing to collaborate with each other but not ready to give up their role and position and act in a secondary role .
So in simple terms, and against the backdrop of a missing civic elite, the Birmingham Eastside 50 Golden Builders project seeks out these powerful organisations and encourages them to adopt a public value role in delivering the next phase of the citys regeneration.
The project invites individuals and organisations engaged in the delivery of Eastside to identify themselves publicly as Golden Builders, ie. as "people who can move between sectors and groups, weave agendas together, and find common aims without claiming power. Perhaps these people, of whom there should be more and more, could be what Blake called the Golden Builders of the cities . | 2019-04-24T23:50:15 | http://www.davidpatten.co.uk/pages/information_pages/synecdoche_pages/goldenbuilders.html |

This thesis is a study of the Opposition in Ghana. However, the principal figure, always in mind, although perhaps not always mentioned, is Kwame Nkrumah. Kwame Nkrumah has intrigued and impressed me for as long as I have been interested in African affairs. This was the most important reason I had for choosing Ghana as my foreign study center last year. This thesis is my response to what I consider the unfair and uncritical treatment Nkrumah has received, especially since his overthrow in 1966. Now that Nkrumah is gone, perhaps it will be possible for students, of Ghanaian history to revise the existing treatments of Nkrumah and to gain a better understanding of Nkrumah's role in the liberation of both Ghana and Africa. | 2019-04-24T08:39:16 | https://cache.kzoo.edu/handle/10920/24411 |
Mr. Faerber, seconded by Ms. Cortvriend, made a motion to approve an exception to the rule that requires a separate meter and curb stop for each building and allow an after-meter extension of the water serviceline at 82 Glen Road from the existing house to the existing barn on the same property, consistent with past practice, and with the approval predicated on the Zoning Board of Review’s approval of home occupational use and with the Board’s proviso that said approval is for auxiliary use only and is not an approval for a separate living unit.
A vote was taken and the motion passed with Michael Nott, Frederick Faerber, Teri-Denise Cortvriend, Philip Driscoll, Allen Shers, Theodore Czech and Ronald Molleur voting in the affirmative.
Attorney Neil Galvin and Developer Michael Behan are present.
Mr. Fox explained that what was thought to be an issue going back thirty years is proving to go back further than that – more like forty to forty-five (40-45) years.
Mr. McGlinn stated he hopes to be able to set up a Subcommittee Meeting mid-January 2017 to address the issue.
Mr. Nott noted that previous discussions include the matter to be assigned to the Engineering Subcommittee.
Mr. Galvin stated he noted the item was listed on the District’s Agenda and wanted to make sure the matter continued to be monitored. There is a matter pending in court that he believes will ultimately determine the outcome of this particular situation; however, in the meantime, obviously to the extent the Board or any of the Subcommittees might be dealing with it, he will keep an eye on the Agenda to see what may be occurring.
Attorney Neil Galvin and Developer Michael Behan thanked the Board and left the meeting.
Mr. McGlinn explained that he has a call into Mr. Abraham, the District’s Insurance Agent, to discuss the Insurance Agency’s position to not cover the damages caused by a faulty water meter.
It was noted that the District purchased 1,300 meters from Elster. They are plastic meters with brass connections. They were installed during 2012 and there have been five (5) meters that have developed cracks in the bases, causing them to leak. Apparently this particular meter leaked more than others or it went unnoticed for a longer period of time.
The meter company has been contacted and it is not known at this time what, if anything, they will do because they are no longer in that business.
Mr. Nott, seconded by Ms. Cortvriend, made a motion to approve the Administrative Board Meeting Minutes and Administrative Board Meeting Executive Session Minutes of November 15, 2016.
Mr. Nott, seconded by Mr. Faerber, made a motion to approve the Water Main Extension for Brown Terrace as outlined in a letter to Mr. Benevides from Mr. McGlinn.
Mr. McGlinn discussed the results of the energy audit conducted by NationalGrid, noting the findings were not as favorable as hoped.
It is his feeling that replacing the District’s HVAC with individual electric powered units for the Office, Conference Room, Operations and Separate Office areas would be much more efficient than the one natural gas unit currently being used.
Mr. Nott, seconded by Mr. Faerber, made a motion to authorize the General Manager to apply for financing Under Efficient Building Fund Program.
Mr. Faerber, seconded by Ms. Cortvriend, made a motion to approve the Payment of Bills in the amount of $244,344.86, and the Interim Payment to Easton Winwater $2,407.55.
Bond Capital Expense Payments for AMI Project in the amount of $21,422.55.
Mr. McGlinn explained that chlorates come about when sodium hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide are used to treat the water. As the sodium hypochlorite ages and decomposes to some degree, it produces more chlorates because it’s feeding on itself.
Chlorates are not regulated; however, there is a Health Advisory Level. The Health Department has directed the District to study its results and reduce the chlorates. There’s not much the District can do because it purchases its water from Newport, and the Health Department is aware of that. It was noted that Newport is researching alternative vendors and storage options for its chlorine to help reduce the levels.
• A water main extension is not necessary to service the existing house.
• A main extension is not required to service future customers.
• There is adequate fire protection in the area.
Require the long serviceline to be installed in a conduit.
• Customer to be mailed Shut-Off Notice when the account becomes two cycles behind.
• Rather than posting Door Notices: propose changing to mailing notices to Owners and Tenants – to be received no less than four days before the scheduled shut-off.
• Operators will no longer collect payment at the property at the time of shut-off.
• Reinstatement during working hours only.
• Payment arrangements may be established if done three or more days before the scheduled shut-off date.
• Customers with a clean payment history for three years will be allowed to pay all but the most recent quarterly billing.
Mr. Faerber, seconded by Mr. Nott, made a motion to approve the revisions to the Shut-off Process as presented.
and a total estimated price of $2,106.00.
1. Closing the office at noon on December 23, 2016.

One vote was taken to accept, with regret, Miss Milner’s letter informing the Board of her retirement effective March 31, 2017, and thank her for many years of service and wish her a nice retirement.

Much has been written about the Millar gesture - its bold, expansive, assured form swirling across her chosen surface whether canvas, paper or vinyl or, as we have seen most notably in her Venice Biennale exhibitions in 2009 and 2011, taking painting off the wall and into sculptural form out into space and the world. However here in this exhibition of three large and one smaller painting, paint remains contained and the place of colour in her work is foregrounded.
It is this colour that we respond to emotionally or sensually in the first instance before the intellect steps up and engages, drawing us in to Millar's underlying project - a sustained investigation of the issues and challenges of painting and its place today's visual economy today. Rather than the issues of representation and the tension between two and three-dimensional space that have more often been discussed in relation to Millar's work, what first comes to mind here are ideas about how painting engages with the emotions. Again history provides the springboard with Kandinsky and his colour theories and Rothko and the colour field painters of the mid 20th century providing the starting point to let us think both about how art makes us feel personally and how it operates in a way that is quite different to its antecedents. Formal purity is not a concern of this 21st century abstraction, what is more relevant is a kind of subversive questioning of possibility and progress.
One of New Zealand's most acclaimed painters, Millar represented New Zealand at the 2009 Venice Biennale and in the 2011 Biennale was included in a major collateral exhibition. Based in Berlin and Auckland, she has exhibited throughout the world for 20 years. | 2019-04-24T20:09:34 | http://bartleyandcompanyart.co.nz/exhibition,Judy_Millar,262 |
As your child progresses through his or her English/language arts education, you may find yourself creating more focused lesson plans. When your child was in the elementary school years, he or she needed to learn the foundational elements of English/language arts by studying the subject broadly. However, by the time your child enters the middle and high school years, he or she is ready for more challenging work.
You can teach your child specific skills that round out and develop his or her English/language arts knowledge by selecting the Prentice Hall Writing and Grammar curriculum for homeschooling. This program delves deep into Writing and Grammar, helping your child become proficient in those subjects. With plenty of hands-on activities, Prentice Hall Writing and Grammar is an engaging program that will simultaneously solidify your child’s knowledge and help you teach new material well.
Each Grade of Prentice Hall Writing and Grammar is broken into three chapters: Writing, Grammar Usage and Mechanics, and Academic and Workplace Skills. Each Grade gets incrementally more difficult and introduces new concepts. The Writing portion helps your child develop his or her ability to compose arguments and express him or herself. The Grammar Usage and Mechanics chapter builds your child’s understanding of the way the English language is structured. Finally, the Academic and Workplace Skills chapter ensures your child has the abilities he or she will need in college and beyond.
Turn in writing with minimal to no grammar errors. Recognize grammar mistakes in his or her own writing. Establish and maintain a tone appropriate for whatever type of writing he or she does. Articulate thesis in all parts of essay writing. | 2019-04-19T04:51:44 | https://www.learnamic.com/learning_resources/prentice-hall-writing-and-grammar-grade-11 |
Yes, you’ve heard it before, probably at least a million times since you started law school, and probably at least a million more times before you make it out of law school. Why? Because it is so much more important than we realize.
I have to admit, my social media is pretty clean. I just don’t use it all that often, and when I do, typically I’m trolling for cat videos or dog shaming photos or something brilliant like that. So when I hear about employers looking at it, I might be doing a mental eye roll and forgetting about it.
What made me sit up and take notice was when MY employer let me know that a new hire had been “unhired” before the start date. Why? The employer had googled the new person and didn’t like what came up. By the way, the employer is over 60 but one of the coolest (read non-conservative, non-judgey) people I know.
So are they honestly looking? And if they are, what is the bad stuff? Cussing, political posts?
Yes! According to a 2014 CareerBuilder survey, more employers are using social media to search prospective employees every year, and finding more and more reasons not to hire.
Most of us would probably never post anything overtly bad, but these don’t seem that bad. I bet we’ve all got a funny law school meme that maybe says something about going to class unprepared or maybe funny drinking things. While you may know it’s a joke, is someone else looking at it and thinking “maybe this person won’t be prepared with my clients?’ You’ll never know, because they probably won’t tell you that it was just that silly law school meme that you snatched and reposted from another site.
Check it out. You may want to do a little spring (or late winter) cleaning on your social media! | 2019-04-21T20:17:07 | https://theblackacretimes.com/keeping-it-clean-on-social-media/ |
Response from Apple Farm writer Marla Sarle who lives half the year in Michigan and the other half in Arizona.
Until I retired I rarely got enough sleep. My second grade teacher let me stay in and take naps during recess. The noise of a college dorm kept me awake with anxiety: Music theory class at 8:00 in the morning required rest. I occasionally cried myself to sleep. The exhaustion and anxiety of working years sometimes called for a little pill in the middle of the week so that I would have at least one good night’s sleep during the week.
Now retired, I live in Arizona for five months of the year. I go to bed late. 12:00? 1:00? I am a night owl. After so many years of being tired, I recognize that the world does not operate on my circadian rhythm.
I naturally wake up between 7:30 and 9:00. My husband puts coffee on my bedside table at 8:30. Sometimes it is cold before I realize it is there. An hour of thinking about and writing dreams, checking email, reading the news…I am ready to leave my warm cozy. I might put in a load of laundry, clean the bathroom, run Roomba in the bedroom--he vacuums under the bed!
Maybe by eleven I am ready to eat something. Is it breakfast or lunch? I do my daily 7 Little Words and the Washington Post Crossword Puzzle.
We play cards until happy hour or dinner time. We have fun and laugh a lot. But, I have had no reading time and have done no writing. I don’t function on their schedules.
I realize something else: I am a be-er. Many of my friends are do-ers. Their energy levels put mine to shame.
They love to go and do. I want to stay and be still.
And I also recognize: Two of my favorite people are ENFP’s on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. I am an INFP. I envy my extroverted friends’ energy, their eagerness, their accomplishments. I love conversations of depth with them, but I cannot keep up with their activity levels. They seem to have it all and do to all—and to have it all together.
Sometimes guilt slaps me up side of the head. What is wrong with me? Why can’t I live like others? Why can’t I do what others do?
Why can’t I be on the go like others? Why can’t I accomplish like others accomplish?
But then I read, “What does it mean to live at the speed of your own soul?
The world may expect me to live at its speed, but I realize that my soul has its own pace.
I work at understanding what that means for me and honoring the regulating voice within.
Response from Apple Farm Writer Barbra Goering who lives in Chicago, IL.
If there is frustration, let it go. If there is anger against people, let it go. If there is criticism for yourself, let it go. Life has so many frustrations, small and large, and so many frightening problems and crises. If I use this mantra, it becomes the starting point for action. The “let it go” is not passive or even, necessarily, pacific. It clears the way of the emotions of desire for revenge or hatred of oneself, emotions that can block my ability to deal effectively with a problem or person. I have listened to this voice when suiting up to face small or large challenges, whether they are personal, national, or worldwide.
When I let go of the feeling of frustration, a new feeling comes in: a peace that can allow contemplation of the source of the blockage. When I let go of my fury against another, I can step back, assess the other and what the other presents to me. When I let go of the criticism of myself—for feeling the frustration, for feeling the urge to exact revenge for a wrong, for my inadequate response to evil—then I can feel an opening for a new way of thinking and feeling to begin. I may be able to see the quarter-turn that Helen Luke writes about—the shift that opens the way to revelation.
The problems of this world, inner and outer, may remain knotty and difficult of resolution. But the way can be cleared to face them, to strategize, to feel my true response deeply. Then the hard work can begin.
in the fight for their lives.
crying over their dead children.
They walk across a field.
the people united, will never be divided!
cries out, fist raised, surrounded by her people.
my memory fills in the voice.

I hear the sound of dismantling.
The polar vortex and its brutally cold temperatures got my attention at the end of January. I’m not one to fuss too much over winter weather, growing up in Michigan and living in the Midwest my entire life. Now that I have my own counseling business, though, I had to tend to the practical matters of cancellations and attempting to reschedule some sessions by phone or video link. That whole week become one of feeling off-kilter on schedule – not doing what I would typically do on any given day; missing the time of one phone session by a few minutes and then not being able to get in touch with the client; being in bed much more than usual to stay warm; and so on. I wouldn’t have thought so deeply about being connected with the weather itself, except for how it disrupted my routine, had not another one of my clients helped me do so. She hails from a warmer part of the country and had been very frightened by the talk of the “polar vortex” on TV weathercasts. After our session, she called me excitedly at the end of the week after being home from work about several epiphanies she’d had regarding her history with bipolar disorder, finding that it occurred during the polar vortex highly ironic but also satisfying. It got me thinking not only about the meaning and significance of “polar vortex” specifically, but my/our bodily and psychic connection with major weather trends in general.
I found out, in researching the “polar vortex”, that it always exists as a low pressure area (a wide expanse of swirling cold air), but is generally stays near the North Pole, when it is working strongly to keep the jet stream further north. However, sometimes the polar vortex weakens and part of the system breaks off and comes much further south. So our experience with it several weeks ago meant the polar vortex had actually weakened, not strengthened. (https://scijinks.gov/polar-vortex/). I also think about the bipolar nature of things, like the Earth, and about a vortex – a swirling circle that pulls us into a center point.
So what does this mean for me? What about when the cold, frozen archetype of winter sinks down south enough that I must encounter it? That it stops me in my tracks and swirls me in its grip, and I can’t just keep going through winter trudging along, like my Michigan toughness encourages me to do? What synchronicities shock me into broadening my view of the polar vortex?
One of the things it asked of me was to explore death – the cold, barren, brutal, killing part of winter. A family member has Stage 4 cancer and is going through chemo. Needless to say, this has rippled winter very profoundly through my family as we all look death in the face, or try to look away. I’d been struggling with trying to talk about death and feeling no one else wanted to. During the polar vortex week, I felt very disconnected from my family, but also somehow came to the conclusion that we are doing the best we can; I let my expectations of “doing this death perfectly” die, and I also let die my hubris that I somehow knew best how to handle it. I made arrangements to visit several weeks later, which was lovely, and helped us all look at death and the importance of life and love together. Winter reminds us that snow, like grace, covers everything equally – there is no ego or individuality when a blanket of snow-grace descends.
I also had a friend several years younger than me who had a massive stroke during the polar vortex, and lay in the hospital through the brutal cold, having several surgeries and then family making difficult decisions about life and death. Those of us who loved her spent several agonizing but also powerfully loving weeks praying for her and her young adult son, who was her legal medical representative. I had profound questions and curiosity during this time about what she was experiencing in her semi-conscious state and wondering if it was a cold, barren, snowy place, or a place of immense awareness and spring-like wonder? Two days ago I attended her funeral on a bright, sunny day, and heard and felt so much love as people talked about her love for them, while also feeling so much grief, that I thought something in me would burst and break free . . . like the polar vortex . . . and like the clots that had caused her death.
One that’s harder to talk about, because I think it’s less conscious for me, is the Snow Queen archetype that accompanies the Polar Vortex . . . the story behind Disney’s film “Frozen.” The general idea is that the snow queen attempts to live in solitude to control her powers to create ice and snow and freeze everything. I find, as a therapist, I can get into “Frozen” space for several days sometimes, where I feel as though each relationship I’m in seems to be freezing, or that my capacity to be an effective therapist and business owner is as barren and frozen as those late January days. That client whose call I missed, I know is hurt by this and has canceled further sessions. I’ve had to chat with my internal Snow Queen who thought she should isolate herself for this as a bad therapist, when other parts of me know this was a crucial event in our relationship (that is much about the client’s own frozen ability to be safe in relationship) and invites some profound conversation to thaw things, if we are both willing. When people decided to cancel instead of talking on the phone or over video during this dangerously cold week, I often froze for a time wondering why. Had my personal ice frozen something in our relationship? Other spring and summer parts of me (that allow feelings to simply come without freezing them out) know that every client is a whole person capable of many things, including not seeing me for a week . . .
Then there was also the warm, cozy, snuggle-up-by-the fire part of me who was home all week with my wife – unlike a typical work week – and I enjoyed the relaxing stay at home without having to get up early, get dressed, and get out the door. There were memories of Midwest blizzards I’d experienced, that were defining moments in my childhood – 1967, as a young child – and 1978, as a high school student. I recall fondly as a 6-year-old walking down my driveway feeling like I was in a tunnel with impossibly high sides where my tall Dad had shoveled the snow higher and higher. Or walking to the grocery store with a sled in high school since driving wasn’t possible for several days. As with this year’s polar vortex, back then we hunkered down and worked together and all allowed ourselves to really surrender to the power of Nature, because we had to and because we agreed to. There is something powerfully binding about that experience.
I’m finishing up this piece on an evening with a high wind warning and concern all day about losing power. What will this wind blow in, clear out, or break down? How can I stay in good connection with “all my relations” (honoring the Lakota people), within and without? What is your inside weather report in this lingering wintertime?
“When we say Mitakuye Oyasin, ‘All Our Relations,’ many people don't understand the meaning of those words. The phrase Mitakuye Oyasin has a bigger meaning than just our blood relatives. Yes, it’s true; we are all one human race. But the word Mitakuye means relations and Oyasin means more than family, more than a Nation, more than all of humankind, everything that has a spirit. The Earth herself, Maka Unci, is our relation, and so is the sky, Grandfather Sky, and so is the Buffalo and so are each of the two-leggeds, the four-leggeds, those that swim, those that fly, the root nation and the crawling beings who share the world with us. Mitakuye Oyasin refers to the interconnectedness of all beings and all things. We are all interconnected. We are all One.” —Chief Arvol Looking Horse, Excerpt from his book White Buffalo Teachings.
What has my attention, and has for a while, is how to be in relationship to death. I tried several ways of steering myself away from this answer, but nothing else was as true. When I was diagnosed with cancer about four years ago, I began a rigorous course in the tension of opposites. How does one live committed to the ongoing ceremony of daily life, with its pleasures and dear relationships, and also open the psyche as much as possible to the inevitable that now seems much closer than expected? How does one metabolize and integrate this dilemma as part of the inner journey along with the outer facts? If there is fear, what does it want to say?
Some of the voices and experiences that have spoken to me: Reflections from people who are farther into this journey, which is different and the same for each person. The rise and fall of life in nature. Sometimes I sit in my garden and can feel perfectly at one with the just-so of what comes to life, blooms and dies, and can feel myself part of it. Helen Luke's essay on Suffering. Accompanying my husband in his dying, a year and a half ago. It becomes clear that the body has its own wisdom and prepares itself for death. An image told by Marie-Louise von Franz, from a dying woman who saw, in a dream, a candle burning on the windowsill, and then burning just outside the closed window. The flame endures, but beyond a boundary. My own dreams, which show me also how deeply in life I really am. They invite a playful, creative spirit and I am grateful when they come with their puzzles and story telling. Music, a deep thread in my life and one that also exists in time. Poetry that carries images one can hold, turn over in the hand, and befriend.
This is very much a “here's where I am now” bulletin from the journey. Some years ago, I asked a dear friend who was dying to send me a message if she could from the other side. A bit later I had a dream that she was telling me about a place we could stay, with “so much room, so many rooms, so much bigger than expected”. I'm glad to know that death, like life, is so much bigger than expected. In the meantime, I am living -with curiosity and as much patience as I can muster for the holy unknown.
I’m not talking about an actual murder.
You’re not talking about actual crows.
And one shape that will be murdered in six seconds.
La gente, unido, jamas sera vencido.
Response from Apple Farm Writer Mary Theis. Mary guides the Apple Farm Writing Group and lives near Chicago.
And I hear my poor body responding: “Don’t you love me? After all I have done for you? I have served you well.” (This is one oracle – wisdom source, the body itself).
I am listening for/to the voice that lies deep within. Sometimes, when I am able to clear the “dross” I can actually hear it, but mostly I feel it as an impulse to do a certain thing, or refrain from doing what I feel an urgency to do, or move in a certain direction. And I don’t understand why I am being guided in this way, but am at my best when I trust those impulses/voices.
There is an image that reflects how this trusting comes about in me. It is an image of large, black talons releasing my heart. I interpret the talons as representing the lifelong effort of something in me to control everything in order to protect me. Finally, as old age approaches, I can envision those talons releasing my heart so it can sing.
The response needed changes from day to day. Sometimes I feel called to express what I am learning as an image. I can allow it to unfold in this manner and understand it in a new way.
Sometimes it is a poem that shows the truth.
And sometimes, perhaps the most difficult, is by showing who I am; by trusting and acting on those impulses that I know are true. In this way, I may use my new-found understanding to deepen my work and relationships. Sometimes, for all of us, as we are true to ourselves in this way, those we touch are helped to discover their own Wisdom and Voice. | 2019-04-22T06:46:56 | http://www.applefarmcommunity.org/apple-farm-blog/category/all |

What is Cryotherapy and How is it Beneficial?
There has been a lot of recent buzz about a popular method of athletic recovery called “cryotherapy.” Many athletes are turning to cryo to relieve their aching muscles after a day of training or in preparation for an upcoming match or game. Others are turning to cryotherapy for improved circulation and stress reduction.
Cryotherapy is designed to cleanse the blood. During a session, you will be placed in a cryo unit that will dip down to temperatures below -166 degrees Fahrenheit all the way down to -321 degrees. At temperatures this low, your body will enter survival mode and send 80 percent of its blood to your core. This process is known as Vasoconstriction. While in this mode, your blood will pass through your cardiovascular system more times than usual, which means your blood will be enriched with oxygen, nutrients, and enzymes. During your session in the cryo chamber, your body will also rid itself of toxins. When you exit the cryo chamber, the cleansed and enriched blood will circulate through the rest of your body in a process called Vasodilation.
Because of the cold temperatures, some people compare cryotherapy to ice baths that many athletes use for pain relief and muscle recovery. The difference being cryotherapy causes vasoconstriction and then vasodilation where ice baths only cause vasodilation. Vasoconstriction is where all the big benefits come from so trying to compare the two is like comparing a full nights sleep to a 15 minute cat nap. One other difference is that ice baths are often 20-minute sessions, whereas a cryo session is only two to three minutes due to the extreme temperatures.
After a cryo session, your body will be infused with an enriched and invigorated blood supply, which explains why many people often feel energized afterward. In addition to added energy, many people experience pain relief. If you’re suffering from muscle pain, joint stiffness, or overall achiness, you may want to consider signing up for a session. If you’re worried about the cold, be sure to choose a location that has a cryo chamber that alternates between cold and warm air.
Thanks to the endorphins released during a cryo session, you may experience anxiety and depression relief.
Once your session is complete and you exit the cryo chamber, your body will begin to force itself back to its core temperature, which burns calories. A single session has been known to burn up to 800 calories. What’s even better is the fact that the metabolic benefits stay with you in between sessions.
Whether you’re looking into your first cryo session because of muscle pain, training, or cosmetic reasons, you’re sure to receive a positive and beneficial experience you won’t soon forget.

The 11 international Judges arrived at 8.30am on the 25th July 2013 and proceedings commenced with the raising of the Entente Florale flag in the village.
A PowerPoint presentation was given to the Judges, showing all of the wonderful things that Clonegal has to offer.
Following the presentation, judges explored a host of displays in St. Brigid’s Community Hall. A visit to St. Brigid’s Church, the National School and St. Fiaac’s Church was followed by a trip to the Weavers Cottages, where various demonstations of craft took place. The Judges enjoyed the Derry River and made their way to the Ben Mulhall Park, where they were given an exhibition of all of the Sporting activities in the area. The final leg of the journey was Huntington Castle where a community party took place.
So what did they look at? | 2019-04-21T20:51:52 | http://clonegalkildavin.ie/entente_florale/adjudication.htm |

Summer is home buying season, which means it’s time to start looking into mortgages, realtors and trying to cipher your way through terms that make no sense to you. One of these terms that can be particularly confusing is PMI – or Private Mortgage Insurance. What is PMI and why is it important to you? This blog post will run through the most important things you need to know about PMI, and how it can affect you in your home buying search.
What is PMI? PMI stands for Private Mortgage Insurance, and it’s basically insurance that protects the lender in the event that you default on your loan. According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, PMI is usually required if you have a conventional loan and make a down payment of less than 20 percent of the home’s purchase price.
Monthly Premium. This is the most common way to pay for PMI, with the premium added to your monthly mortgage payment.
Upfront Premium. This is a one-time payment made at closing. With this option, be aware that you may not be entitled to a refund if you refinance.
Both Upfront and Monthly Premiums.
How much does PMI cost? Rates vary, but usually the lower your down payment and/or credit score the higher your premium; and the higher your down payment and/or credit score, the lower your premium. According to Zillow.com, the premiums for PMI usually range from $30-$70 a month for every $100,000 borrowed. So for example, if you bought a home with a value of $300,000, you’ll pay about $150 a month for PMI.
How long do I have to pay PMI? According to Zillow.com, when your loan-to-value ratio hits 80 percent, you can contact your lender and request an end to your PMI payments. For instance, if your home is worth $200,000 and you owe $160,000, your loan-to-ratio value is now 80%, and you can ask your lender to stop your PMI payments.
Is there a way to get out of paying PMI? You typically only have to pay PMI if you make a down payment that is less than 20 percent of your home’s purchase price. But there are ways to get around paying PMI, even if you can’t afford to put down the magic number of 20 percent. According to this article from the Washington Post, there are special programs that offer deals to first time homebuyers. For example, BMI FCU has a First-Time Homebuyer program that, as part of completing the program, will not require you to pay PMI. Even if you can only put down as little as 3 percent, you won’t have to pay PMI.
Private Mortgage Insurance can be a hassle, but once you know how to navigate it the waters become a little clearer. Stay tuned for more blog posts with helpful mortgage-related tips and tricks. | 2019-04-21T18:42:18 | https://www.bmifcu.org/blog/private_mortgage_insurance.html |
I hate eating alone in public. It seemed sad to eat among groups of people chatting away and laughing with their fast food and coño accents. When I think about it, I probably got that “trauma” way back in high school. Freshman year, I got into a word war with a pushy classmate and I ended up eating lunch alone while they stared and obviously whispered about me. So yeah, I think that’s where I got that from.
Anyway, I finally faced that “fear” and have been eating out alone for a couple of days. I actually don’t have a choice. The job hunt has pushed me to do it. It’s either I eat alone or faint because of hunger. The other day, I ate at this pasta place I really liked. I was seated beside two girls chatting loudly in between spoonfuls of ravioli.
Girl 1: It was like a double date like the four of us.
Girl 1: Kaya lang he lives like far from me. So where are we gonna go for the next date?
Girl 2: Oh yeah! That’s like suuuuper difficult.
Girl 1: I know right?!
Ermahgerd! Like seriously?! Haha. I know I shouldn’t be eavesdropping but as much as I don’t want to hear it, they were really loud. Plus, I didn’t get anything from that conversation so I guess it doesn’t count as eavesdropping at all. Today’s solo lunch was a bit better. I sat near the windows and people watched. Eating alone was sort of therapeutic, I guess. Much like the walk-a-thon I blogged about a few days ago. Before, in school we all had the impression that being alone is sad because we all equated happiness to the number of people who were around us or the friends (whether true or not) who sat with us during lunch. Back then, it didn’t matter if the “friends” you were with actually cared about what you think and actually got to know you. What was important was that you laughed along with their not funny jokes, you seemed interested about who’s dating who, and the fact that you belonged in a group (thus, the sad truth about cliques).
It’s an emotional/psychological breakthrough, isn’t it? Once again, I am reminded of the importance of spending time with yourself. I have a lot of friends and I love them a lot but sometimes I need to take a break from being the clown or the therapist and just sit there, eat a good meal, and not be thinking about which topics to talk about next while we finish our cheese burgers. Just plain comfortable silence. | 2019-04-22T17:56:13 | https://ventomachine.wordpress.com/2012/08/30/table-for-one/ |

The business must service a large market.
The business must adapt and change with the market.
Be aware faddish businesses can be very difficult to operate because of the rapid rate at which market perceptions change.
Many new business owners work to tight budgets and have limited resources to start-up. Ideal business models should therefore have low start-up costs.
What Business Fits These Characteristics?
A (home based), direct response marketing business, dealing in Information has all these characteristics and offers unparalleled flexibility for the serious Wealth Creator.
Direct response marketing is all about the targeting of a specific market by use of mail shots.
Mail shots can be sent by post as happens in mail order or by e-mail as happens in the online Internet world.
Let's get specific and see how direct response marketing fulfils the characteristics of "The Right Business"
The US leads the world in direct response marketing, principally due to the geographical spread of the country, and the almost universal acceptance of direct response marketing as a valid means of buying and selling products.
The UK is a very sophisticated direct marketers environment, where many US trends manifest themselves as a result of the close cultural, economic and political ties between the two countries.
5 Reasons Why The Business Should Deal With Information.
People like Information. They seek it everywhere. On the TV, on radio, at the cinema, in newspapers, in books and reports and increasingly on the Internet.
The need for Information seems insatiable - the more a person knows about a particular subject, the more they want to know. It is also true that the less someone knows about something which is of some interest to them the more they will seek out information to expand their knowledge.
Advances in technology in computing and desktop publishing means it is now unbelievably easy and cost effective to engage in Information provision businesses.
People will pay money for access to good, useful sources of information. They have little time to do the required research themselves and will pay someone else to distil the information they require into useable forms.
There are numerous Information product types and it is more than likely you will find one or more of the following financially rewarding. E-zines, audio tapes, video tapes, CD-ROM, DVD, Live tele-conferences, workshops and Seminars.
A direct marketing business working with Information affords you the opportunity to change with your market as quickly as it takes to produce a new Information product.
This can literally range from a few hours for new, short shelf life information products to a few days or weeks for longer lasting Information items.
In some cases the changes you need to make to your products to stay ahead of changing market trends may be as simple as title changes and a few amended paragraphs in the content.
Many of your good ideas go by the wayside for one simple reason. It costs too much to successfully float the idea, and then to sustain it through the early years as it becomes established.
An Online direct response information product business can be started for less than $300 per annum in the USA or Ј200 per annum in the UK.
You will also require some means for accepting payment for your Information Product.
One of the truly remarkable things about this business is that these requirements can be achieved for the low capital outlay described above.
Information marketing is not the only "ideal" business model, and I am sure you can think of others that fit the characteristics noted at the beginning. However, Information marketing via direct response offers you the perfect Business setup to ensure a positive start-up and a healthy business model.
