How To Defeat Islam - Laugh At It
Anyone who seriously believed after 9/11 that victory against the ongoing Islamic conquest would be accomplished by military force has by now been steadily disabused of that illusion after 5 years of political correctness, passivity and misguided campaigns to bring democracy to the Muslim world.
The war against Islam is not going to be won with guns or bombs. Force is merely the final solution to settling conflicts but Islam's violence is for now only the tip of the iceberg of a much larger campaign to make the world into an Islamic domain.
While we fight with police actions and holding elections, Islamists are seizing control of governments by force or by democratic elections. They are conquering African nations and staging civil wars in pacific ones. They are importing millions of Muslims to Europe and America as Europe's 'Palestinians' for a coming European Intifada. They are rewriting history to claim that Arab explorers originally discovered America and Australia giving them claim to the land. They are aggressively evangelizing hundreds of thousands a year to convert to Islam through misleading claims and marriages of Western women to Muslim men.
What we believe is a war, is merely a minor skirmish in a global conquest. While we spend billions of dollars and thousands of lives to stabilize a single Muslim country, dozens of non-Muslim countries including our own are being destabilized day by day.
The true war against Islam is not a military war, it is a cultural war. For Islam it is a religious conflict by an empire intent on transforming every aspect of life into one defined by Islam. For us it is about preserving our way of life. The cartoon controversy woke many Europeans to the fact that free speech and many of the other attributes of democracy that they take for granted are incompatible with Islam. Under the relentless pressure of multi-culturalism, they and we are increasingly deciding that our way of life has to bow to theirs.
This is the ultimate victory of Islam. Not the fall of the Twin Towers or any single act of terrorism is as great a victory for Islam as when our own government and press repeat their propaganda and muzzle their critics. This represents the submission of the West to their rule. It turns Islam into the only legally sanctioned religion in Western nations that have long since instituted separations of Church and State.
Islam cannot be criticised by any public figure without violence quickly following. Islam cannot be criticized by the press without violence quickly following. No disrespect, real or perceived, towards Islam can be tolerated either. This is the lesson Muslim violence is teaching in Europe and much of the European and American media, politicians and clergy are becoming quick students. Criticism of Islam by individuals will get you condemned as a bigot by those very same people who are for all intents and purposes collaborating with our new tyrants.
While the entertainers, academics and pundits of a liberalized West are free to criticize and impugn Christianity and Judaism, Islam is a No-Go Zone. While Judaism and Christianity cannot be taught in the schools of a liberalized West, Islam can and is. Muslim religious artifacts can be displayed, Muslim religion taught and its holy books present, where those of other religions cannot. This elevates Islam to a special status. It gives Muslims power over other religions and they use that power. In a society where traditional religion is mocked, theirs is held sacred. Is it any wonder that sheltered from any criticism or negative appraisal by the same comedians and academics who tear apart Judaism and Christianity; that the view of many will be that Islam is a better religion. And this is exactly what Muslims want.
Our culture is being invaded. Our nations are being overrun. In England some government offices banned mugs featuring Piglet on them. In Israel a woman was sentenced to jail for drawing a cartoon of Mohammed as a pig. In America defaced Korans are being investigated as hate crimes. This is the power of the law backing up the power of the cultural consensus of our politicians and press and preventing any criticism or mockery of Islam as if this was Saudi Arabia. We can defeat Islam. We can stop this. If we fight back.
When Mark Twain said that, "Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand", he was speaking as part of a long tradition of American humorists who satirized the great and powerful, who knew that nothing so much cuts a puffed up ego to size and the insecure man hiding behind it, as a well told joke. Islam in our time is the biggest puffed up ego there is. A fraudulent religion based on the plagiarism of a vicious desert warlord turned into a global empire. There is not one thing new in Islam. Its only claim to power is that it is wielded by men more ruthless and murderous than any other today.
Muslim rage is not a strength. When Muslims riot screaming in the streets every time they're offended in some way, this is not the mark of a strong faith but a weak insecure one. So weak and insecure that it cannot turn the cheek or look down from a superior position of belief in the true God. Instead like all pagan savages it goes into a murderous rage because inside its worshipers know they are not the servants of a living God who can avenge all insults, but of a faith cribbed from Jews and Christians by an illiterate bandit who proceeded to win convert by terrorizing everyone who didn't join his gang of bandits. Muslim rage does not emerge from a deep respect for Allah but from the knowledge that Allah is a fraud and that their entire system of belief is a fraud that could never stand up to any scrutiny. If the world's religions were paintings in a museum, Islam would be a child's dirty smeared finger painting all in one color.
Islam's drive for world conquest is a sign of weakness. It is a sign of a deeply insecure faith. But then most killers are driven by their own insecurities too. The man who opens fire on a crowded cafeteria is weak inside but that only makes his explosive violence more dangerous and it makes coddling him more dangerous because sooner or later he will kill.
The way to defeat Islam is never to coddle it, to enable its rages or its conquest of our lands. It is to stand up to it over and over again. It's to laugh at it. Yes laugh it and ridicule it. America is a collection of immigrants with the humorous traditions of dozens of cultures, Irish, Jews, Italians, Scots, Russians, Asians. We're not just the resevoir of the world's talent but its humor too and humor is the ultimate weapon against the balloon that is Islam. Islam can only expand by force. It can't leverage any real military force against us. Instead it expands by intimidation, by conformity, by deception, by political correctness. It has no defense against laughter. Men who are so insecure they would kill over a stray word here or there, can't stand up to being laughed at, to being ridiculed, to have their cherished values transformed into a laughingstock.
We're fighting a cultural war and humor is our best weapon. We've spent the last 50 years laughing and mocking every aspect of our societies. Let's turn that laughter on Islam full bore. And Islam's defenders will find it difficult to censor and silence humor, the way they can silence and discredit political commentary. To try and silence humor is to look like a prig and if there's anything our politically correct cultural overlords hate, it's to come out looking like the stuffy humorless totalitarian-minded fascists that they really are.
The front line of the cultural war between Islam and the West is right here. It's the internet. It can't be silenced or shut down. It's the interface point between two colliding cultures. It's the gateway for information and disinformation. It will also help determine which will stand and which will fall.
So go on telling those jokes. When the arguments run out and the rhetoric is exhausted, humor can always be fresh and a weapon no one can argue against. Get out your photoshops and make those pictures. Get out your Windows Movie Makers and make those videos. There's one thing Muslims can't stand above all else and that's mockery. It drives them mad and when that happens they show their true face beneath the false polite masks they so often wear, in a way that not even liberals can long ignore.
Battling Islam with humor quickly clarifies the stakes for the west in an undeniable way showing that our choice is between maintaining our freedoms or losing them forever. Islam's apologists, our press, our politicians, our academics have been cooking us like lobsters in a pot, slowly raising the temperature until we're broiling and barely notice it. Muslim rage raises the temperature a lot. It wakes up some of those in the lobster pot as the murders of Theo VanGogh and the Cartoon controversy did.
A billion plus Muslims around the world are shouting angrily demanding that we take their perverted homicidal mania of a religion seriously. Let's laugh at them instead.

The one problem is that they sit on black gold. they essentially control the sources of oil for much of the world. the western countries do not have an effective alternative. plus, there is the simple fact that there are 1.5 billion muslims. hard to laugh at thoses points. the answer is for the Allies to get their act together and place an embargo on all radical Arab countries. and, be prepared to take up arms when needed.

"the western countries do not have an effective alternative."
Yeah, we have an effective alternative. They're called testicles. The only people who get walked on are those who lay down. You want to lay down, go right ahead. Islam will make sure you die lying down.
What, because Arab Muslims have oil we should lay down and let them kill us all? Tell that to Daniel Pearl's wife. We have more than enough of them in North America to keep you and I both busy writing about their sick and insalubrious religion, namely Islam.
If you haven't the balls to laugh at these homocidal anti-Jewish bastards, then I can't help you. You sound like a wimp-ass. Let me guess, you're going to wait 'till the Allies "place an embargo on all radical Arab (read Muslim countries) countries. Is that after or before North America becomes a radical Muslim country? You have about as much forsight as my ass.

As part of their continuing coverage of the protests in the city, DigBoston profiled the key players helping to organize demonstrations against state brutality and social injustice. Intelligent Mischief and Deep Abiding Love were mentioned under the category of "The Activists Arts Front":
Straddling direct and artistic actions, organizers with Intelligent Mischief and Deep Abiding Love have hosted activist trainings and have also facilitated Ferguson-inspired street art as the growing protest storm fuels radical expression and vice versa. From a post by IM organizer Terry Marshall about their recent developments:
"These last few days Intelligent Mischief along with Deep Abiding Love and Design Studio 4 Social Intervention have had the pleasure of hosting St. Louis artist Damon Davis and his "All Hands on Deck" project in Boston. Thanks to many local Boston artists we were able to blast the town with street art that showed solidarity with people in Ferguson and make the connection to struggles in Boston. Last night we projected Damon's hands up images and his "I Can't Breathe" video on the side of the Harvard Law School building as a part of the National Day Of Resistance. Be on the look out for more street art and action design from Intelligent Mischief in the future."

Half its panels missing, the giant screen framed in rusting
skeletal steel faces an audience of autumn olive thickets,
tangled bittersweet and grape vines. Posts once uttering
laughter, gunshots and music have long lost their voice,
and the block concession stand that scented dank
summer evenings with popcorn and French fries
is a crater of concrete chunks, wires and pipes.
Fords and Chevys hungering for dusk and flickering larger-
than-life magic once crowded this gravel lot head to tail
light. Backseat-cozy in footed pajamas with my sisters,
we watched Disney's Dalmatians and Bond battling
Goldfinger as Dad shushed our giggles. Wrapped
around a leggy girl years later, I parked by the far fencerow
of pines, barely noticing Yousarian's wheedling.
In this arena of illusion I rode Dr. Zhivago's train,
landed on a planet of apes where Liberty lay ruined
on a beach, eavesdropped on the Godfather's irrefusable
offers, bopped to the happy world of Grease, fell prey
to apocalypse in Nam. Soundtrack and Technicolor
merged with moonlight, clicking crickets, and the tang
of damp from a nearby swamp.
Gazing dizzily at the battered, blank expanse of white,
I see Brando with puffed cheeks and dark suit, dreams
replaying like previews in this ruined Serengeti of imagination
where hawks stare from broken light posts and sparrows
and warblers flit through brush. The screen's a great occluded
eye staring vacantly, looking at me as I once looked at it.
And still showing tonight are the only stars worth a wish.

The moon appears orange when the sunlight it reflects passes through a thicker portion of the Earth's atmosphere. Generally, the moon only appears orange when it is close to the horizon.
The colors of the sky occur because of the scattering of white light by Earth's atmosphere. The blue of a clear daytime sky is due to Rayleigh scattering, a wavelength-dependent scattering of light that disperses shorter, bluer waves more strongly than longer, red wavelengths. Near the horizon the atmosphere is thicker, and the shorter wavelengths scatter in all directions, away from they eyes of onlookers, leaving longer orange and red wavelengths more visible.
The moon is luminous because it reflects light from the sun, so the same principles that cause orange sunsets also cause the moon to appear orange near the horizon. As the moon rises higher in the sky, the orange fades to bright white. Residents of cities and industrial areas view redder sunsets and a deeper orange moon because of the additional particles in the atmosphere due to pollution.
During a full lunar eclipse, the moon appears red when the eclipse reaches its peak, or totality. At totality, the sunlight reaching the moon passes through a swathe of thick air, much like during sunset, causing an orange or blood-red moon. If there were no atmosphere, the moon would appear to vanish completely during totality.

amberfreda needed a new product label design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 61 designs submitted by 13 freelance designers.
Amber Freda
We sell all natural and organic herbal products such as teas, lotions, syrups, soaps, and salves on Etsy and at local fairs.
We're looking for product labels for our teas and other items. This may eventually expand to also include a website, business cards, and product packaging.
I've attached some photos of our products below. I'm looking for possibly an old-timey or rustic/vintage feel - maybe a chalkboard design or brown paper labels with a font that looks like hand writing or somehow is reminescent of an old apothecary shop, and there should also be a floral element to the design.

It takes a lot of guts to make a horror film for the holidays, and even more guts to make a good one. Black Christmas has since become a staple for horror fans because it has all the right elements of a good horror movie, with a Christmas setting to really mess with you. This film is a pioneer of the slasher subgenre, introducing elements that would inspire horror classics like Halloween and When a Stranger Calls. Unfortunately, beyond the unique kill scenes and faceless killer, there's not much left to hold onto.
As with most horror movies, the cast is really just here to die creatively. The shadowy figure stalking the sorority girls is known only as Billy and his motives or true identity are never revealed. Billy's lack of resolution is equal parts infuriating and brilliant, as it makes the entire film seem like a random instance of mayhem. He remains nameless, like a force of nature. Black Christmas knows exactly what it's doing when it comes to horror, from the chilling score to the first-person shots through Billy's eyes. Past that, however, the film falls apart with storytelling and interesting characters. There's barely a plot stringing this film together, which is why it lost me.
Black Christmas will forever be every horror fan's Christmas movie, but it doesn't quite hold up to modern standards. It does do a great job of creating an atmosphere and a memorable killer, but there's no reason for me to care about these girls who are getting killed. A little more investment in story and characters and Black Christmas definitely could've won me over.

Canadian climber's body taken off Everest
Toronto resident Shriya Shah-Klorfine, 33, died on May 19 with 3 others
The body of a Toronto woman who died while descending from the summit of Mount Everest earlier this month has been taken by helicopter to her family in the Nepalese capital of Kathmandu.
Shriya Shah-Klorfine, 33, died on May 19 along with three others during what has been described as overcrowding on the world's tallest peak.
Ganesh Thakuri, a spokesman from the Utmost Adventure Trekking, said a team of climbers managed to bring the Toronto woman's body down from an area more than 8,000 metres above sea level to a camp within helicopter rescue range on Monday, but bad weather prevented the body from being flown off the peak right away.
Climbing Everest was a long-held goal for Shah-Klorfine, who was born in the Nepalese capital and grew up in Mumbai.
She later moved to Canada to be with her husband, Bruce Klorfine, and start an import business, SOS Splash of Style Inc.
Died in 'death zone'
Last year, Shah-Klorfine was a candidate for Mississauga East-Cooksville in the last Ontario election as a member of the Paramount Canadians Party.
Shah-Klorfine died in the so-called death zone near the top of the 8,850-metre peak where a lack of oxygen can be fatal to climbers.
Photos of the recovery of Shah-Klorfine's body were provided to CBC News by Documentary Channel Canada, which is doing a film on climbing Everest.
Everest was first summitted 59 years ago by Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, who reached the top on the morning of May 29, 1953. The pair are believed to have been the first people to do so.
Since then, approximately 3,000 people have attempted the feat and more than 200 have died trying. However, due to the difficulties posed by recovery, a dangerous and expensive endeavour, the bodies of many remain on the mountainside.

Lawyers for Kids Charity
Hockey Tournament
Presented by PBC Group
Thank you! Together, we raised $33,500 to help families in our community.
See you again next year!
About the Lawyers for Kids Charity Hockey Tournament
The tournament was originally established to honour Jim O'Grady, who passed away in 2009. Jim was recognized as a "lawyer's lawyer" by the legal community. He was passionate about hockey, his community, and was a longstanding member of the YMCA-YWCA of the National Capital Region. As anyone who has participated in this great event could tell you, the spirit of the tournament is one of fun, community, and inclusivity.
While all are welcome to participate, the vast majority of players are lawyers, their relatives, and their staff. Most teams are sponsored by law firms, which range in size from small to national firms. Additionally, the tournament receives great support and visibility from the County of Carleton Law Association (CCLA), which has a membership of over 1,200 local lawyers in Ottawa. The CCLA has an expansive reach, and promotes the tournament to lawyers not only in Ottawa, but also all over eastern Ontario.
We hope you will join us by putting in a team for the 2019 Lawyers for Kids Charity Hockey Tournament, or by purchasing a sponsorship level!
About the Cause - The Y's Before and After School Care Program
This year, all net proceeds raised from the Lawyers for Kids Charity Hockey Tournament in support of the YMCA-YWCA will go directly to the Y's before and after school care programs. With 23% of Ottawa's children living in poverty, the Y is increasingly called upon as a leader to provide on-site before and after school care in high risk, lower income communities – communities largely comprised of single-parent families, low income families, and those who are new to Canada.
The Y helps these families bridge the critical caregiving gap between the school day and the end of the work day. For many working parents, this caregiving period is cause for concern as they strive to secure care that is safe, affordable, engaging, and accessible. With your generous support, we can continue to provide subsidies to families who need it most, in order to ensure all children in our community have access to this level of care, regardless of their financial circumstances.

Prior to that, I had just released my first book, The Best Advice So Far. I still remember the day I typed the period after the last word of the last sentence of the last chapter. It…

hey guys, I'm back!
So about a month ago, I posted how I changed my room from yellow to white and I said that I still was not finished. Well....I am now done guys! This is the finished product.
Not much really changed but I love my room like this. Opposite my wardrobe I have a chest of draws. I used to have my wardrobe in that spot, I basically swapped the wardrobe and the draws.
The amount of times that #I have changed my room is crazy but this has to be one of the biggest & nicer changes that I have ever done to my room.
Wardrobe (I changed the handles though): http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/wardrobes/free-standing-wardrobes/brusali-wardrobe-with-3-doors-white-art-00250169/

Marker That Let's You Know Your Drink's Heat!
This marker from 'Ink N Drink' has color changing ink for coffee and tea cups to indicate when a drink is cooling. The ink writes dark blue but changes to bright green when a drink hotter than 150F enters. As drink cools, ink slowly fades to blue to indicate drink is cooling. When completely blue, drink is at 150F which is deemed a safe-for-the-tongue temperature.

Well, 8 days not including lead and lag travel time. A quick summary of the three events, and the flights it took to get me to each:
SQL Saturday #105 – Dublin, Ireland
Flights on March 21st:
Time zone change: +4 when we got there, plus Daylight Saving Time kicked in, so +5 after the event.
I spoke at this event, and manned the SQL Sentry booth with cohort Scott Fallen. This event was a fantastic SQL Saturday – very well organized, a quite unique speaker dinner (on a boat that went up and down a canal, through several old-fashioned locks), and I had my speaker feedback before I even returned home:
We also had the Sunday free, where we rented a car, drove on the wrong side of the road (and the wrong side of the car), and visited the western coast – most importantly, the Cliffs of Moher:
I hope we get an opportunity to sponsor and attend future events in Ireland.
SQL Connections – Las Vegas, Nevada
Flights on March 26th:
Time zone change: -8
I presented two sessions in the SQL Server track: "T-SQL : Bad Habits to Kick" and "What's New in SQL Server 2012." These two sessions are getting a little old, but both seem to continue to be well-attended and appreciated. As a company we really enjoy this conference because we get a lot of different folks at the booth – developers, general admin folks, even some SharePoint people. We also really like hanging out after hours with the SQLSkills folks and other friends in the industry.
SQL Bits – London, England
Flights on March 29th:
Time zone change: +8
Bits is always fun – those guys do a bang-up job organizing this conference and we always find it very valuable as a company. I didn't speak at this event because I was a last-minute addition to the company roster – I had already committed to Connections, which overlapped with part of this conference. I did make it there for both the Friday pub event and the entire Saturday day session. This was the only leg on this entire journey where I felt any sort of jet lag whatsoever – I took a 2-hour nap on Friday afternoon. Greg (@sqlsensei) ran a half at Reading to benefit children with cancer, and set a personal record by finishing in about 1:49.
On this leg of my journey I also did the unthinkable – I forgot my iPhone in the seat back pocket when I deplaned at Gatwick. And the US Airways staff there was far less than helpful. They told me they had checked my seat multiple times (during the five hours it sat at the gate) and found no trace of my phone, however the passenger in my seat on the return flight to Charlotte later that day e-mailed me from my phone and told me he would drop it in the mail. So this in a way restored my faith in humanity, in spite of being completely frustrated with the ground crew at the airport.
And then…
…I had to get back home. Flights on April 3rd:
Time zone change: +5
All in all it was a great trip. A little stress on Friday with my phone, but US Airways made up for it yesterday, and I hope to see the phone in my mailbox today. Total mileage (not including preferred bonuses and Nicole's miles): 18,602. Net time zone changes: 26. Value: priceless. Thanks to all the organizers of these great events.
That's amazing. Glad you found your phone. Hope it doesn't come with a demand for compensation like mine did :).
Great photo! I really would like to visit Ireland again. It has been 18 years since my last visit.
…and my phone just arrived. Battery is dead, but it's here.
Aaron, that's one heckuva trip!
Sounds like a fun couple of weeks…
How does SQLBits compare to SQL Connections and the PASS Summit?
SQL Bits combines a high-quality paid portion (one pre-con day and one session day) with a free training day much like a SQL Saturday. It's a different atmosphere, but more like the PASS Summit (mostly due to the SQL Server focus) than Connections.
It Was Really Great to see you @ Dublin #105 and SQLBits X events, especially enjoyed the dinner and chat that followed, see you @ SQL Rally next..you certainly know how to travel
Thanks Neil! Always a pleasure! I hate to admit it but I am writing this from an airport gate. 🙂
Well done Aaron, a great effort by you. Thanks very much for making the effort, a SQL Server event without your attendance wouldnt quite feel right these days 🙂

There's no excuse not to be out this weekend. The weather's amazing, it's Easter weekend and hopefully you've got a few extra dollars in your pocket. Since you don't want to spend it all, this is a good time to check out the city's amazing BYOB scene. The 312 Dining Diva has some suggestions on where to start:
Cafe Irazu: Expect this Costa Rican resto's patio to be packed tonight as neighborhood folks come out in droves for piping-hot plates of traditional dishes like the Casado, made with rib eye steak, chicken breast or tilapia served with rice, black beans, sweet plantains and an over easy egg. It's cash only and no corkage fee. Wine shop Red & White is directly across the street.
Gilt Bar: Half hipster-half yuppie destination—with a Johnny Cash soundtrack to boot—the share-able menu is all American. Also, even though they have a full-service bar, you're allowed to BYOB. No corkage fee if you share a taste with table next to you.
TESA Cigar Co.: Bring your scotch and whiskey to go along with your cigars at this hidden lounge, which we hear gets some pretty rockin' celebs. No corkage fee.
Cuatro: The Latin-inspired resto in the South Loop recently lost its liquor license, but you can use that to your advantage during the Bossa Nova Brunch. Bring your own bubbly or rum to mix with their fresh juices that should go well with savory dishes like the Eggs Rancheros or slow-roasted pork empanadas.
Butterfly: West Town's friendliest sushi joint also offers really decent fare in a really LOUD room. Highlights on the special maki menu: Red Dragon (spicy shrimp, cucumber wrapped with tuna and avocado), Crunchy Shrimp (shrimp tempura, mayo, cucumber, masago, tempura crumbs with eel sauce) and Hurricane (avocado, cucumber, crabstick, green onions, cream cheese, wasabi/spicy mayo top with seared tuna and special sauce). The second location is on Chicago Avenue. No corkage fee.

The Full 90
Wizards get home-and-home series with Chivas as part of Bravo deal
The Wizards officially signed Mexican star Omar Bravo. Bravo is the newest designated player to MLS, and after signing with the Wizards, he was loaned back to Chivas Guadalajara for the end of this year.
As part of the deal, the Wizards and Chivas have also agreed to play home-and-home friendlies at their new stadiums in 2011 as part of the loan agreement. The Wizards will play at Chivas' new Estadio Omnilife during Kansas City's preseason, and Chivas Guadalajara will play in Kansas City's new soccer stadium after the venue opens next summer.
Here is what the interested parties had to say about the deal.
Bravo: "I am very happy about joining Kansas City in 2011 and staying with Chivas through the finals of Libertadores and the Apertura. I want to win two more trophies for Chivas and then focus on bringing championships to Kansas City in Major League Soccer."
Wizards coach/technical director Peter Vermes: "We are very pleased to have signed Omar Bravo, who is an exceptional player. Although he won't join us until 2011, we feel that it will be very beneficial for Omar to go through a whole season with us, beginning with the preseason. The 2011 preseason will give Omar a great start to the year and allow us to indoctrinate him into our system. Omar's high-pressure, attack-oriented mentality will complement our style of play extremely well."
Wizards president Robb Heineman: "Signing a player of Omar Bravo's stature and ability is important for us. When we purchased the Wizards, we put an emphasis on playing clubs like Manchester United and Chivas Guadalajara. We know that to compete at the highest level we need to develop high-performance players and sign world-class players like Omar Bravo. We look forward to Omar joining us next year as we open the finest soccer stadium in the United States."
Jorge Vergara, President of the Board of Directors of Grupo Omnilife, which owns Chivas: "We are very proud of Omar and everything he has achieved, and we know he'll continue his successful career in MLS as he's done with Chivas. We are going to miss Omar greatly, but we know he will bring great satisfaction to the fans who live in the United States, and that is important for the sport."

Named the "Poet Laureate of the wok" by the food historian Betty Fussell, Grace Young has devoted her career to celebrating wok cookery and its global significance as a tool for preparing healthful and delicious meals. In her cookbook Stir-frying to the Sky's Edge, which won the James Beard Foundation's Best International Cookbook Award, she demystifies the art of stir-frying and takes readers on a tour of the humble instrument's role as the premier culinary tool of the Chinese diaspora. Her work is currently showcased at the Museum of Chinese in America's exhibition, "Sour, Sweet, Bitter Spicy" and the Museum of Food and Drink's exhibition, "Chow." Grace's video, Chinese Trinidadian Chicken with Mango Chutney, won the 2017 IACP Digital Media Single Food-Focused Video Award. In 2016, she was named one of the "40 for 40" Women honorees for the American Museum of Natural History's Margaret Mead Film Festival.
Grace is a four-time IACP award-winning writer, including the Jane Grigson Award for distinguished scholarship, recipient of the World Food Media Award, and the eGullet Culinary Journalist Scholarship. Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge was one of the top cookbooks of 2010 by NPR, The Washington Post, Good Morning America, and Huffington Post. She is the author of The Breath of a Wok and The Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen.
Grace has lectured on wok culture at the American Museum of Natural History, New York University, San Francisco Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Culinary Institute of America Greystone, James Beard Foundation, Greenbrier Symposium for Professional Food Writers, French Culinary Institute, Culinary Historians of Chicago, Culinary Historians of Northern California, NASFT (National Association for the Specialty Food Trade), IACP, Tenement Museum, Omega Institute, China Institute, Asia Society, Chinese Historical Society of Southern California, Chinese American Museum of Chicago, Museum of Chinese in America, San Francisco Asian Art Museum, American Institute of Wine and Food, and the Chinese Historical Society of America.
Grace has devoted much of her career to preserving the traditional iron wok. With the growing popularity of nonstick cookware with Chinese and Chinese-American home cooks, the wok is an endangered culinary tool. She is the first food writer to write extensively about wok hei, the Cantonese term for a stir-fry that possesses wok fragrance and flavor. Grace's translation of wok hei or the "breath of a wok" which she first coined in The Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen, is now a part of Western culinary vocabulary. In 2004, Young was a guest curator for The Breath of a Wok exhibition at New York University's Asian Pacific American Gallery. The show opened in 2005, at the Portland Classical Chinese Garden in Portland, OR.
Grace has been featured in The New York Times, All Things Considered, and on CBS News Sunday Morning. In addition to appearing as a guest on Sara Moulton's Weeknight Meals and the Martha Stewart Show, she has been on The Leonard Lopate Show, Here and Now, The Splendid Table, and Good Food with Evan Kleiman. For seventeen years Grace was the Test Kitchen Director and Director of Food Photography for over forty cookbooks published by Time-Life Books. Her work has appeared in The Washington Post, The New York Times, Food52, Gourmet, Bon Appétit, TheKitchn, Chow, Food & Wine, Fine Cooking, ZesterDaily, Gastronomica, Chicago Tribune, Boston Globe, Edible Communities, Everyday with Rachel Ray, and Better Homes and Garden.
Throughout Grace's career healthy cooking has been a primary focus. She is featured in the WeightWatchers Stir-Fry Guru video series and writes the monthly Market Watch column for WeightWatchers magazine. Grace was the Test Kitchen Director for the U. C. Berkeley Wellness Cooking School and has written for Eating Well, Cooking Light, Shape, Men's Health, Women's Health, Fitness and Health magazines.
Grace currently serves on the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History's Kitchen Cabinet, an advisory board made up of leaders in food scholarship and culinary history to help the museum shape and expand its research, collections, programs and exhibitions related to food and beverage history. From 2004 to 2010, she served on the James Beard Foundation's Book Awards Committee. She was a contributing editor for Saveur magazine from 2006-2015.
Grace is the co-founder of Wok Wednesdays an online wok cooking group with over 2,000 members. She has taught healthy stir-frying throughout the U.S., including her popular Craftsy The Art of Stir-Frying class which has reached nearly 10,000 students.

The other day I was watching ANTM and almost had an aneurysm when a British size 12 was referred to as plus size. What alarmed me most was that at a British 10, I'm only a few inches away from being plus size, if Tyra be believed. Actually, I can bet my lungs (and they are very precious to me) that if I went on the show, I'd be flung, without question, in the plus size camp.
The definition of fat is subjective but regardless of your personal benchmark for measuring fat, I'm convinced that the average human being does not want to be regarded as fat. Don't even try and deny it, I'm not listening!☻
It's stupendously easy to gain weight. The worst thing about it is you don't really realise when it's happening and when you eventually do, your mind decides denial is the way forward.
'It's not that bad.'
Yeah right!
On the day of reckoning, when your mind can fool you no longer, you wake up and it hits you like a ton of bricks. YOU ARE OFFICIALLY FAT!
I've been there.
Once upon a time, I discovered KFC. Colonel's Meal. £1.99. £2.09 if you throw in a pot of barbeque sauce . It was love at first taste. I ate it (and a few donuts here and there) every day for the best part of a year and slowly but surely, my cheeks started to inflate.
'See your cheeks!' my mother would exclaim.
'Whatever,' I'd relpy, 'it's evidence of good living!'
'See your ikebe!'
'Yeah yeah. Like big booties don't run in the family.'
My brothers started calling me Fatima. I wasn't amused. Not in the slightest. I ignored them though. It was just something else to add to their long list of 'Ways to Wind MEE Up.'
The day of reckoning came one morning when I was getting ready to go to my A-Level Statistics class. I had a pair of size 14 jeans my mum had insisted on buying me months before. Apparently I would 'grow into it.'
Yah. If you say so mummy. *rolls eyes*
That fateful morning, for reasons I cannot remember, I decided to try it on.
I put one leg in and then the other. I pulled it up. It wouldn't go past my hips.
Did I wash these jeans? How come they've shrunk?
I tugged and tugged and finally, the waistband aligned itself with my waist. I couldn't button it though. There was no amount of tummy sucking that would make the button and button hole meet.
'Mummy o, enemy of lepa. There is power in the tongue!!!'
I yanked it off, donned my tracks and a t-shirt and headed straight to the gym to sign up. I went to that gym seven days a week. Twice a day if I could manage it. One day one of the trainers called me to a meeting room.
'We've noticed you're in the gym for long periods everyday. Twice a day sometimes. You need to slow down or you'll hurt yourself.'
I looked at his six pack and toned arms and thighs.
HISS. I returned to the treadmill.
Three months later I tried on that pair of jeans again. I buttoned it and watched it slide down my hips, forming a pool of denim at my feet.
'Now that's what I'm talking about!'

An elderly woman has pleaded no contest to animal cruelty charges in what authorities say was a cat-hoarding situation in Hollywood icon Grace Kelly's childhood home.
Eighty-two-year-old Marjorie Bamont was convicted in December of 14 counts of animal cruelty but didn't appear in court and appealed.
The Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said Bamont pleaded no contest Thursday rather than fight the conviction.
SPCA agents seized 14 cats and a dog on Oct. 31 from the large home in the city's leafy East Falls neighborhood.
Bamont is allowed to keep two of the cats with regular SPCA checkups. Adopters will be sought for the others.
Bamont has owned the home since 1973. Grace Kelly, who married Prince Rainier of Monaco, died in a 1982 car crash.

Decorating the own profile with photos, text and YouTube videos is something that happens every day on Favebook. The problem appears when the copyrights are not own by the facebook user who has just copied the internet contents. Even when a user is in principle owner of the rights and according to the terms of use, facebook is allowed to use the contents to a large extend. Lawyer Hagen Hild, certified lawyer in IT Law and in Protection of Industrial Property has been interviewed by FOCUS Online about that topic.
In case that a WLAN is unencrypted, uninvited surfing the web cannot be avoided. The unobstructed access invites to use the open Wi-Fi. This surfing is legal and does not constitute a criminal offence, as long as it is confined to the mere surfing the Internet. However, it should be morally denunciated since whom secretly sneak, scrounges. However, in case of scrounging there is an important risk of unwanted guest such as viruses of malicious software.
According to the recently published police criminal statistics of the year 2010, the number of the recorded crimes regarding computer and Internet criminality has continued to grow strongly. 60.000 cases have been known last year, 20 percent more than a year before. The estimated high number of unknown and not registered crimes should not be underestimated. The increasing number of criminals feel safe from the law within the supposedly anonymous legal vacuum Internet.
With the growing number of Smartphone users is also increasing the interest from companies to remain present in the mobile business. Applications for mobile phones - so-called apps - are already an important economic factor, which should not be underestimated. Through these apps, it is possible more than order rail tickets through mobile phones, full web pages are optimized for Smart phones including complete ordering processes. As in ecommerce, numerous statutory duties must be considered by those companies.

Interview with certified lawyer Hagen Hild about the topic: Surrounded by Facebook, published in CHIP 02/2011 edition.
The computer magazine CHIP recently published our large terms and conditions test, in which lawyer Hagen Hild (Terms and Conditions Law) and lawyer Martin Bachmann (Privacy Policy) examined dozens of terms of use, licence agreements and privacy policies of the major providers such as Microsoft, Google and Facebook. This study has now been mentioned in the FOCUS magazine.
Important Terms and Conditions Check and interview with lawyer Hild in the CHIP September 2010 edition
Im AGB-Dschungel (In the jungle of Terms and Conditions) is the title of the wide terms and conditions check of CHIP. The law firm Hild & Colleagues has checked, for the well-known computer magazine CHIP, hundreds of pages containing terms and conditions, terms of use, licence agreements and privacy policies in the field of Internet and IT. The law firm has also legally tested numerous clauses for CHIP. For this purpose, certified lawyer Hagen Hild (certified lawyer in IT-Law and certified lawyer in Protection of Industrial Property) has analysed...
The public prosecutors office Hamburg has initiated preliminary investigations against Google, since the company has possibly violated the German Penal Law. The company photographed streets across Germany for its Internet service Street View, thereby data from unsecured WLAN connections and parts of e-mails have been mistakenly stored. Should private data have been unauthorised intercepted, an offence could be considered, according to § 202b StGB (German Penal Code).
Interview dated February 22, 2010 with lawyer Hagen Hild about the topic: "1&1: Questionable data clause by online order".
Press release No. 227/2009 of BGH (Federal Supreme Court) about the decision of 10/11/2009, file number: VI ZR 217/08
The Federal Supreme Court allows the Europeam Court of Justice to clear the question of the international court competence about forbereance regarding naming by the suppliers who are settled in another member state.
Decision of OLG Frankfurt / Main (HRC Frankfurt / Main) of 12/05/2009, file number: 11 W 21/09
The § 101 paragraph 9 UrhG (Copyright Act) is the basis to authorise a provider not to erase the data wanted by thirds. These permission facts are valid, according to § 96 TKG (Telecommunication Act), only for stored data traffic, however, not for the stored data caused from § 113a TKG (Telecommunication Act). Information about these data to private thirds for legal pursuit should not happen.
Decision of VG Karlsruhe (Administrative Court Karlsruhe) of 19/05/2009, file number: 10 K 932/09
The publication of paid subsidies and their consignee can intervene in the data protection fundamental right. Indeed, this is justified by an entitled public interest. A clear use of public methods as well as an economic budget management is relevant. Besides, the height of the paid sum admits only one conclusion on the managed area.

1) If your lens is cloudy/oxidized, first use a spray bottle or damp cloth to wet the lens, then rub with the abrasive (blue/green) side of headlight prep pad (included in the detail kit) to remove oxidation and contaminants. Ensure that the lens stays damp while using the prep pad. The oxidation coming off the lens will appear as brownish colored liquid; rub until this visual indicator is no longer present. IMPORTANT: do not allow prep pad to come in contact with painted surface; it may scratch.
2) Rinse lens with water, dry thoroughly with a clean cloth and inspect the surface to ensure oxidation has been removed. If not, repeat steps 1 and 2 on any missed spots. TIP: when you can see through the lens while wet, you are ready to apply Wipe New.
3) With the cap still affixed, shake the bottle of Wipe New for 10 seconds prior to opening.
4) Slowly and carefully, pour Wipe New onto the applicator cloth until saturated.
5) Apply in a single wipe to dry lens with little or no overlap, from one row to the next until the surface is completely coated.
6) Discard the applicator cloth when the application is finished or if it begins to harden during application.
Folks, this is how it's done. Customer comment from Instagram: "Wipe new works!"

The dreaded acronym - it can easily confuse/
Have you ever had one of those days when just about everything you touched or came to your attention was bigger, more complicated, more difficult than it, at first, appeared? Someone asks an innocent question or an email arrives and your first answer needs qualifying in some way and then that answer triggers another train of thought and so it goes until you wish you hadn't answered the phone or opened the email in the first place! At the close of just such a day a while ago, it occurred to me that at the root of this type of problem we often find the issue of implied, implicit or assumed understanding. If your understanding is not clear in the early stages of the conversation or transaction then you will labour under the misunderstanding for quite a while, usually until someone realises that you have been talking at cross-purposes.
Take the ever-present acronym. Life is full of them. We hurl them about with abandon and construct sentences out of whole strings of the wretched things. It takes a brave soul to stop the conversation to ask for an explanation. Most disciplines and activities have more than their fair share. Next time you have a conversation with a colleague, try to imagine what a bystander from outside the discipline would be able to derive from your jargon and acronym-filled conversation. Not much, I would hazard a guess. Out of curiosity, you might like to try keeping a running total for a day of the number of acronyms you have employed in conversation or in written communications. I am certain that it will be a frighteningly large tally. Multiply this by the potential for confusion if you and your colleague have assumed different interpretations for the same acronym. For example, you would think that the combination of letters "PLC" is innocent enough but it takes only a few seconds with any glossary to find three very different definitions:-
Public Limited Company
Project Life Cycle
Programmable Logic Controller
Plenty of scope for confusion there!
Misunderstandings of this nature, pre-conceived ideas or holding fast to long-held opinions can colour one's attitude to a range of issues. I could offer CPD as a prime example. CPD is a very simple idea at heart - the idea that we all benefit from ongoing learning - but it is easy to overcomplicate it. Even the explanation of the acronym itself is interestingly open to challenge. Most are happy with the phrase Continuing Professional Development but I have, in the past, used Career Planning and Development as this may offer a more precise understanding of the major benefit of CPD, depending on where the discussion is taking place.
A colleague has recently asked what we can do about it. For me the answer is in the way we communicate and stay awake to the needs of others. Ensuring that everyone around you understands what you are saying and, if necessary, providing a glossary or crib sheet to assist newcomers into your common working language will help. The most extreme example I have ever come across (in an organisation which shall remain nameless to protect the not-so-innocent) meant that I needed to have someone at my side throughout the meetings to whisper translations in my ear for complete sentences made up entirely of strings of acronyms. I was so grateful that he took the time to help as I could not otherwise have contributed to the discussions in a meaningful way.
We all need the shorthand that acronyms provide but they are probably best used sparingly in order to avoid permanent confusion.

Compliance scheme Repic has called for improved data collection after research showed that young people were far more likely to sell their waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE) than recycle them.
A poll of 1,000 homeowners revealed that those aged under 29 valued their outdated or broken products at an average of £700 to £800 – higher than any other age bracket.
Young people favoured online channels such as eBay, Gumtree and Facebook Marketplace to sell items such as televisions, iPads and Kindles, according to Repic, which commissioned the survey.
Quality, condition and data security were all key considerations in choosing what to do with a product people had grown out of.
Repic said a growing second-hand market for WEEE meant that selling a new electrical product did not always result in an old item appearing in waste collections.
The body called for better data capture on both new equipment and WEEE flows outside the existing producer compliance system.
Chief executive Mark Burrows-Smith said: "Technology is increasingly changing our lives, and our industry needs to understand and be responsive to technology, economic and behavioural changes, and their interconnectedness.
"The findings show us that there is much left to do in building meaningful strategies for better data capture. Ultimately, the targets still need to be met and we must come up with ways of meeting them. And the starting point is through gaining greater intelligence."
A white paper commissioned by Repic last year proposed a new method to calculate the amount of WEEE placed on the UK market in order to set "more realistic" recycling targets.
The UK missed its 2017 WEEE collection target by almost 100,000 tonnes, leading to concerns that the methodology for setting targets is flawed.

Check Mates – Stewart Foster
Felix School isn't a problem child.
He's a child with a problem…
Felix's ADHD makes it hard for him to concentrate and his grades are slipping. Everyone keeps telling him to try harder, but no one seems to understand just how hard he finds it.
When Mum suggests Felix spends time with his grandfather, Felix can't think of anything worse. Granddad hasn't been the same since Grandma died, and he's always trying to teach Felix boring chess.
But sometimes the best lessons come in the most unexpected of places, and Granddad soon shows Felix that there's everything to play for.

Accessible only by driving through streams and up mountain sides in a customized 4by4, KOKS is not only the Faroe Islands first Michelin star restaurant, it was also dubbed 'The World's Most Remote Foodie Destination' by the New Yorker.
Staying true to the protected traditional Faroese style building dating back to 1740, we worked with the existing frame adding only structures and materials that would blend in effortlessly. The dimly-lit spaces, accentuates the feeling of this being someone's home back in the day. Simple yet sophisticated furniture complement the exquisite 17 course tasting menu you will experience, should you be so fortunate to visit.

GRILL HOUSE - located in the heart of Tórshavn.
Designing The Tarv restaurant was all about preserving the ambience of the original building.
The Poul Hansen Heilsøla building is one of several similar warehouse buildings on a row in the harbor of Tórshavn in the Faroe Islands. Over time the building has had many different functions. All of which has worn the building down. Instead of deleting these traces of history, we decided to emphasize them in the interior - preserving structures, pipe perforations, cast iron details, traces of fires and crayon sketches on the concrete walls. This provided quite the personal and honest backdrop and atmosphere for our furniture and bar designs.

New bar design at Fútastova. Our design complementing the existing architecture of this historical building.
For more than 340 years, Fútastova (The Bailiff's House) has been the home of many prominent historical figures. It has functioned as a school, church, meeting hall, art museum, embassy, concert hall and now a pleasant classic restaurant. A favourite among chefs and connoisseurs, Fútastova offers a unique fusion of Faroese and international cuisine.
Fútastova has also been at the epicentre of Faroese history. Its central location in the historical part of Tórshavn makes it a key witness to many historical events that have shaped the whole country and its people.
etika, the only sushi restaurant in the Faroe Islands, serves some of the world's finest sushi by combining Japanese cuisine, fresh Faroese fish and a sparkle of creativity. The menu also features grilled fish, seafood, beef and lamb.

Danhostel Copenhagen City is located in the heart of Copenhagen by Langebro and Copenhagen Harbour Baths – a few minutes' walk from City Hall Square, the Central Station, Strøget and Tivoli Gardens.
With its 16 floors and 1020 beds Danhostel Copenhagen City is Europe's largest design hostel.
With its more than 180.000 national and international guests annually, the reception and public areas call for a high level of functionality and durability in materials.
We redesigned and relocated the petroleum blue Bar50 to make it work, both as a high capacity breakfast restaurant, as well as a cozy bar in the afternoons and evenings. Customized leather sofas and wall paintings by Christina Julsgaard provide the much need seating capacity and tie the big room together.
Its long lines in the landscape characterize Hotel Føroyar from the outside. The building is a part of the surrounding nature, as if it were carved in the rocks, only the rocks now appear to be glass shimmering in the light.
Inside Hotel Føroyar is an eternally changing play of light and shade, between long dark passages and light and friendly rooms. All rooms share the impressive view over the city.

Generating Web Marketing Leads with Podcasts
A podcast, coined as a term in 2004, is basically radio on demand over the Internet. The Pew Internet & American Life Project found that by September of 2010, 21 percent of adult Internet users in the United States had listened to a podcast in real-time or downloaded it to play later. That percentage now translates to close to 40 million U.S. listeners enjoying podcasts.
Podcast demographics and usage
RawVoice, a podcast advertising network, finds that the podcast audience is skewed toward young (67 percent ages 22 to 40), Caucasian, male (68 percent of listeners), educated (74 percent with at least some college completed), and relatively affluent (61 percent with household income over $60,000). The topic, more than anything else, determines the audience that a podcast will draw.
eMarketer forecasts that "as a percentage of Internet users, podcast downloaders are expected to grow from 9 percent of Internet users in 2008 to 17 percent in 2013," with podcast advertising growing apace to more than $435 million.
Before you spend money producing audio programs, make sure your audience listens to podcasts.
Getting the best results from podcasts
Before you decide to market with podcasts, listen to a few, such as the ones at BlogTalkRadio, shown in the following illustration. Or search podcast directories to hear how other businesses take advantage of this technique. To buy ads on existing podcasts, check out podcast advertising networks or find a podcast that you want to sponsor.
If you want to create your own podcast, decide what you're trying to accomplish. Like webinars, podcasts are best used for branding, lead generation, and content delivery — not sales. Also, take some time to think about your content. Unfortunately, just reading your newsletter aloud doesn't work.
Audio is completely different from print; it definitely has a performance component. Will you riff on your own commentary? Interview someone? If so, whom — clients, colleagues, or decision-makers in your field?
Optimizing podcasts
Add meta data to your podcast when you upload it. Be sure to include your essential search terms in the title and description of every podcast. Make these fields as rich in keywords and content as you can.
As with other content-sharing services, use existing keyword research, meta tags from your website or blog, or optimized text that you've already created. Transcribe and post a short excerpt from a keyword-loaded portion of your podcast to help search engines find it easily.
