I normally read a couple of books a week; firstly, because it's my genuine passion and hobby – and I have two book clubs to keep up with as well but that's by the by – and secondly as a deliberate practice as I am a firm believer that good writers read. And read widely. But I've found that I've struggled to crack through a novel for a couple of weeks now because of work, life and just being exhausted at the end of the day and it's doing my head in. So, to scratch my reading itch, I've turned to my favourite blogs so that I can enjoy a mini fix when I get a few minutes and thought I'd share some old (and new) faves if you're time poor and looking for some reading bites too. So here are my current five favourite blogs!
Laura Jane Williams
Laura Jane Williams is an author, columnist, teacher of creative writing, frequent podcast interviewee and presenter, prolific instagrammer and all round funny, ballsy bird and I'm convinced that we'd be mates in real life if we didn't live 10000 miles away from each other! I love her writing style, philosophies on life, how she attacks life in a brave, unapologetic way and Laura and Katie Jane Hughes – for different reasons – are the two feeds that I check immediately when I dip into Instagram. Check her out on superlativelyrude.com if you want to get some slices of kindness, self-love and confidence with lots of laughs and a few innuendos thrown in for good measure; you won't be disappointed.
Fiona Barrows
Fiona is a recent discovery and is almost the antithesis of Laura in terms of personality, but I like that. She's another Brit and has (fairly) recently returned from Europe and Asia where she travelled and worked for a few years. Previously in publishing, she's now established her business as a brand storyteller particularly focusing on creative businesses, has a blog where she writes about writing and thoughtful living and creative businesses and a podcast where she explores similar themes. You can find her at fionabarrows.com and hosting her podcast 'There Are Other Ways where she interviews fellow creatives who are approaching life and work in a non-conventional way. I like the way she writes, her gentle style and honesty on Instagram stories and the fact that she's also a fellow book nerd who consumes books at the rate of knots so there's always a recommendation to be had.
Elle Croft
Elle's another newish find; she's a copywriter and travel blogger – turned published author – who Fiona interviewed on her podcast, so I tracked her down and have been dipping into her blog ever since. Whilst travel content is the cornerstone of her blog, she also writes about writing and reading which particularly float my boat; in particular her journey to getting her first book published – including her submission letter which her agent credits as getting her attention amongst the piles she wades through on a daily basis – which I find so interesting and useful as a wannabee author. You can find her at ellecroft.com and her first novel is a thriller called The Guilty Wife. I've got it ready and raring to go on my Kindle and am looking forward to enjoying it when life calms down a bit and I get my reading groove back on.
Me and Orla
I've talked about Sara Tasker before as her podcasts are two of my faves (Hashtag Authentic & Letters From A Hopeful Creative) and she is the ultimate multi-hyphen as a writer, photographer, author, creative coach, Instagram guru and podcaster. I love the way she writes, her smart, commercial yet creative approach to her life and business and how she has managed to achieve so much whilst managing a chronic health condition, a young daughter and spinning so many plates. Without sounding like a complete cheeser, she really is inspirational and so lovely and unassuming with it. Go over to meandorla.co.uk for Instagram and photography tips, her views on self-belief and being productive whilst living a slower life and loads more. She offers ecourses on Instagram, a useful free eguide to improving your Instagram feed – which is a useful starting point if you're a beginner – and much more.
Sophie Cliff
And finally, the lovely Sophie Cliff…she says as if she knows her..ha! Sophie has a full-time 'proper job', running her blog very much as a passion project and side hustle and actually launched an ecourse at the beginning of the year to help other people do just that. I like her honesty, how she writes, that she's a normal woman living in Leeds and writing about her thoughts and things that she and her mates are talking about, rather than trying to produce content that she thinks people want to read. This seems to be a bit of a trend at the moment which I'm enjoying; bloggers going full circle, turning their backs on trying to produce super slick editorial content and returning to their more authentic roots and I'm all for it. You'll find her at sophiecliff.com, so go on over and give her some love.
So, they're my current fave blogs to stalk and I recommend them all. Do you have any to add to my list?

Meet Stopwatch
Meet Stopwatch
Tap anywhere on the screen to start or stop this simple and elegant stopwatch. Long press anywhere on the screen to reset.
It was designed for use at track meets, where a timer needs to watch for the smoke from the starting pistol. Other stopwatch apps have small start and stop buttons, making them unusable without looking closely at the screen. This app's ease of use makes it ideal for timing cross-country meets, swim meets, or indeed anything.
The stopwatch has three different modes. By default, it is in Simple Mode. Lap/Split Mode allows you to capture lap and split times. Multiple Racer Mode allows you to capture the times of multiple racers in quick succession.

B.Good to open first of 3 suburban locations in Vernon Hills
B. Good, a fast-casual restaurant chain featuring natural and locally produced ingredients, is opening the first of three suburban locations next week.
The Boston-based chain, known for its locally sourced burgers, bowls, salads, smoothies and more, said it will open its Vernon Hills location Thursday, Oct. 25, at 875 N. Milwaukee Ave. in the new Mellody Farm shopping center. The store will have between 12 and 14 workers, the company said Friday.
Openings will follow in mid-December in Naperville at Springbrook Prairie Pavilion, 2555 W. 75th St. and in Schaumburg at Woodfield Gatherings, 1721 E. Golf Road.
Founded in 2003, the company said it serves "food with roots" -- sustainably grown and prepared in house. B. Good said it is partnering with local companies including Bobtail Ice Cream Company and Gotham Greens, both in Chicago; Russell Costanza Farms, in Michigan; MightyVine, in Rochelle; and Highland Baking Co. in Northbrook.
"We have always wanted to be in Chicago, and in looking at our growth plans, the timing was right. We found the Chicago market has been underserved when it comes to locally grown, healthy fast-casual options, and I am excited to introduce B. Good and all we have to offer to help fill that void," said B. Good CEO Chris Fuqua. "Whether customers want a seasonal salad, a burger and fries, a healthy spin on spaghetti and meatballs or a smoothie, we have options they can feel good about eating -- and giving their kids. I am thrilled to expand to this new market and bring Chicagoans food made with great tasting, high-quality ingredients -- and partner with local farmers to make that happen."
B. Good has 70 locations across the globe, with more than 50 in the U.S.
Grand opening celebrations at the local stores will feature live music, smoothie samples and prize giveaways. Kids can eat free with the purchase of an adult entree, a promotion that will continue for the first few months after opening. Following the initial offer, the promotion will run every Tuesday and Thursday.

I know, I know, I know I'll never get anywhere by taking off a perfectly good Sunday when I could have taken a nice run or swim at the rec. center, but I am at least eating raw carrots and broccoli for a snack instead of digging into some leftover chocolate mousse. Not that this is a weight-loss program!
The day simply escaped me as I was working on a short story and my media ethics paper. Once I get through the paper jam that is mid-semester, I should spend less time making excuses and more training. And if someone could tell my neighbors to quiet down, I could get something done around here. Some guys just don't grow up.
I'll have to consider some sort of before- and after-work deal tomorrow... otherwise I'll never be the LeBron James of anything, really. Plus, I'll never complete my running goal for this month (I can't believe it's already Feb. 18; where did my birthday go?).
But for now I'm going to do some weight training while I watch LBJ be the LBJ of the world. I want to be LBJ of the world. Just for one day.

The Fruit of the Spirit (Pt. 6): Kindness
I must confess that writing a blog about kindness is really hard. The principle is easy to understand yet hard to apply to real life. Acts of kindness are prevalent when things are going well and life is great. Yet kindness becomes a profoundly difficult task when I am having a bad day or dealing with people that irritate me. I heard a story the other day about a guy who was having a tough day. Nothing was going right and he was running way behind. He had to stop at the store to pick something up, and on his way out of the store he saw a woman just sitting in her car. He was running late and so he pushed past her and kept moving to his truck. He could not afford interruptions now. Yet the Holy Spirit kept nudging his heart, and he finally gave in. He returned to the store, bought some flowers and took them over to the woman. He realized the woman had been crying and he was able to encourage her and reveal the love of God to a woman he had never met, and likely will never see again.
"Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you"(Eph 4:32). We recognize that kindness like all the fruits of the spirit is not something that we are able to do in our own strength. It can only be achieved by abiding in Christ (John 15). Our job then becomes the obedience to act upon his promptings in our lives. God doesn't override our hearts and force kindness, he gives us the ability and desire, but the act of faith is to obey and act in kindness when He reveals opportunities to us. Christ also encourages us to be kind even to our enemies (Luke 6:23) or those people that just drive us nuts. Lastly, God marks us with His kindness, so that it just radiates in our lives (Proverbs 3:3). It is as if we are branded with Christ kindness. Literally, God call us to "outdo" everyone in kindness.
I take away two things for the story above. First people all around us need to see God through our kindness. God gives us a wonderful opportunity to minister to people and share the gospel by our life and works of kindness. I call this lifestyle evangelism. Next, there are people in each of our lives that are hard to love and be kind to. This could be a family member, friends, coworkers, clients/customers or even someone with a goal to irritate us. We do not naturally offer kindness to enemies, yet God wants to show Himself real by transferring His love into our hearts and giving us the desire to be kind. Ask God to help you if you are struggling to be kind to your enemy, and watch God do something exciting.

The NZ Transport Agency has warned motorcyclists on their way to the Burt Munro Challenge in Invercargill this weekend to slow down on areas of loose chip.
The 11th annual Burt Munro Challenge runs from Thursday to Sunday in Invercargill.
The challenge was introduced by the Southland Motorcycle Club in 2006 following the success of The World's Fastest Indian, the 2005 movie about Burt Munro's inspirational life.
NZ Transport Agency Journey Manager Lee Wright also warned other road users to expect an influx of motorcyclists South Island highways from Thursday through to the end of the weekend and early next week.
"Motorcyclists also need to bear in mind the Transport Agency's and local councils' summer repair and resealing season is underway, which means they need to watch for loose chip and reduce speed accordingly.
"Please, take extra care on your way to and from Invercargill - we want everyone to get to this event safe and well and return home the same way," she said.
Some motorcyclists will take State Highway 6 down the West Coast, and others will travel through the Mackenzie and the inland routes.
Wright said all road users should be prepared to increase following distances and slow down around motorcyclists.
She urged road users to check conditions on the NZ Transport Agency's travel and traffic page, the Otago Southland Transport Agency Twitter updates on @NZTAOS and the Canterbury West Coast Twitter updates on @NZTACWC.
They could also check the Transport Agency Facebook South Island page, or call 0800 4 HIGHWAYS (0800 44 44 49).
Born in Edendale, Southland, in 1899, motorcycle legend Burt Munro bought his first motorcycle at the age of 15 and had his first Indian Scout in 1920 - the bike he would continue to modify for the rest of his life.
After setting a number of New Zealand land speed records in the 1940s and 50s he set out for the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah in the US in 1962 at the age of 63, setting a land speed record of 178.97 mph.
He travelled there a further eight times to compete and set two more world records.
His 1967 record of 183.58mph still stands today, and on this trip also hit 190.07 mph during a qualifying run, the fastest ever recorded speed on an Indian motorcycle.
The example of Burt Munro today still represents the Kiwi attributes of No 8-wire ingenuity, dogged determination, all packaged in a laid-back and humorous demeanour.

Editor-in-Chief İlkay Küçükgüzel Associate Editor Aslı Türe Online ISSN 2630-6344 Publisher Marmara University Frequency Bimonthly (Six issues / year) Abbreviation J.Res.Pharm. Former Name Marmara Pharmaceutical Journal
Journal of Research in Pharmacy 2019 , Vol 23 , Issue 5
Effect of particle size and surfactant on the solubility, permeability and dissolution characteristics of deferasirox1Department of Pharmaceutical Technology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey DOI : 10.35333/jrp.2019.33 Deferasirox is an oral iron chelator used for the treatment of chronic iron overload in blood transfusions. Deferasirox is a BCS Class II drug with low solubility and high permeability. In the formulation development stage for BCS Class II compounds, one of the main approaches is solubility enhancement to achieve better dissolution profiles, increased bioavailability and in some cases, dose reduction. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of particle size and surfactant on the solubility, permeability and dissolution characteristics of deferasirox. Ball milling method was used to reduce the particle size of deferasirox. Pluronic F127 or sodium lauril sulfate (SLS) were selected as surfactants at different concentrations. The maximum increase in the solubility was obtained with 10% SLS at pH 1.2 (from 0.9 μg/mL to 333.7 μg/mL), and with 5% Pluronic F127 at pH 6.8 (from 46.8 μg/mL to 334.2 μg/mL). Dissolution studies revealed that time to dissolve 85% of deferasirox was decreased as a function of ball milling time and particle size. Permeability studies showed that, in 100 μM concentration, deferasirox permeability was significantly enhanced by all concentrations of SLS (p<0.05). With an increase in Pluronic F127 concentration, permeability of deferasirox was not altered (p>0.05). All these results clearly demonstrated that surfactant addition to the formulations was effective for solubility enhancement of deferasirox, and surfactant type in optimized concentrations was very crucial. Particle size reduction can be used as a promising approach to improve dissolution, and hence bioavailability of deferasirox. Keywords : Deferasirox; dissolution; particle size distribution; permeability; solubility; surfactant

Chiropractic Care and Back Pain: Non-invasive Treatment for Bulging, Ruptured, or Herniated Discs
Discs give the spine motion; we are constantly using our discs. Move your back from side to side, you can visualize the give and take of the discs between the vertebrae. Without these discs, your spine couldn't function and move. Intervertebral discs don't really "slip", although the phrase "slipped disc" has come into popular usage to refer to bulging, ruptured, or herniated discs. Your discs are made up of the annulus fibrosus (the tough outer layer) and the nucleus pulposus (which contains a soft, gelatin-like center. When cracks occur in the outer layer of the disc, the material inside of the disc can begin to push out. Numerous factors can cause a disc to herniate. For example, there may be too much stress on the disc due to poor posture, repetitive motions, too much sitting, or an injury. In fact, a herniated disc can be caused by a combination of factors or a physical injury. For many people with back pain caused by a herniated disc the problem starts off small and then gradually builds until you start to feel symptoms, such as back pain.
Chiropractic Care and Herniated Discs
Chiropractor care can help address back pain and other herniated disc symptoms. At your appointment, we will go through your medical history, do a physical exam, and perform orthopedic and neurological tests. In addition, if we find that you have advanced loss of strength, sensation, reflexes, and other unusual neurological findings, then you will be referred to a spine surgeon. However, most intervertebral disc injuries are related to a herniated disc, and can be treated effectively with chiropractic care.
Treatment for a herniated disc may include spinal manipulation,and other chiropractic techniques to help ease your herniated disc symptoms. This will be an individualized treatment plan, but it may include manual therapyand therapeutic exercises.

This part of my blog is going to have recipes and ideas that I have tried and would love to share. I love baking and I am always trying new recipes…
Blueberry Muffins
I love Allrecipes.com. It is where I get most of my recipes. I made these blueberry muffins and there were really good. The only problem that I had is that I didn't buy enough blueberries. The recipe says 2 1/2 cups of blueberries and I only put in a cup and it's not enough. So lesson learned, follow the recipe! lol
Here is the recipe for Blueberry Muffins II
No Bake Pies
I've made several different kinds of cream pies and my favorite is peanut butter. They are all easy to make. The peanut butter cream pie is made with 2 cups of peanut butter, 1 8oz brick of cream cheese, and 1/2 of cup of powdered sugar. You can also use regular sugar if you don't have powdered sugar. I put chocolate chips in my pie. I used a pre-made cookie crust, although you can make your own with crushed oreos and butter. Then just refrigerate for 1-2 hours. You can also put whipped cream in the mixture for a lighter texture. Super simple and easy and delicious.
I've also created strawberry and blackberry pies. The cream made from Tealightful creams where you add either cream cheese or sour cream to the mixture. I used strawberry cream and black raspberry cream for these pies. Then I just put pieces of strawberry, raspberry or blackberry in the pie mixture and on top. I used the same cookie pie crust as the peanut butter pie.
Chocolate Cream Cheese Crescents
I saw this recipe on pillsbury.com and thought these looked so good. I love chocolate and cream cheese, so this is perfect for those cravings. The hardest part for me was trying to figure out how to roll them properly. I just bought the pillsbury crescent rolls from the store. The only thing I would say about this recipe was I was expecting the dough to be fluffy but the dough is very dense once it's baked. Here is the recipe Chocolate Cream Cheese Crescents
Here are some photos:
Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies
These cookies were a huge hit and are delicious. I got this recipe from AllRecipes.com. When I made these, I used a different caramel than what the recipe called for and they didn't turn out the way that I wanted. I wanted the caramel to be melted enough where each bite you got a piece of caramel. I cannot figure out how to make that happen. If anyone can figure it out, then please post it here. Other than the caramel part, the recipe is relatively easy and so good. Here is the recipe Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies
I used chocolate chunks from Trader Joes instead of chocolate chips
I used this special caramel from Trader Joes, but they were very hard to use.
Homemade Doughnuts
Doughnuts is one those time consuming recipes. It is a two day recipe, so you will need to plan ahead for this one. You make the dough the day before because it must rise at least 2 times the size it is when you make it. When you are putting all the ingredients together, you will need "active" yeast and they come in this little packets that are like .99 cents at the store. I was thinking that this little packet isn't going got be enough. But 1 packet is enough for whole recipe. You do have to mix the yeast in warm milk, which I thought was odd, but again it works.
Also, when you have made the dough, you have to put the dough in a greased bowl. This is very important!! I didn't understand why at the time, but its something that makes your life easier later. Make sure you really grease the bowl, go overboard if you have to!! The next day when the dough has risen, it's really hard to get out of the bowl if you don't have it greased enough.
Once you have the dough out of the bowl, you just have to roll them out on some flour. I will say that you have to make sure you don't roll the dough out too thin because the doughnuts won't be fluffy and they don't cook well if they are too thin.
The frying isn't as easy as you might think. Some recipes say fry them for 2-4 mins, this is way too long. It should only be a 1 min on each side max. As soon as they turn a light brown, you need to take them out, otherwise, they will become dry or soggy. But once you have it down, its pretty quick. You do have to pat off the grease off every time or they can become soggy that way as well.
You have to make sure the oil stays at the same temperature, otherwise, the doughnuts won't turn out right.
Ive used a couple different recipes but Pioneer Woman's is the best. I love her and everything she creates. I have all her cookbooks. She makes everything in the simplest way possible and I just love her shows on the food network. Here is the website for Pioneer Woman's Homemade Doughnuts
Here are some photos that I took during my process.
Homemade Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting
So I have this list of things that are difficult to make and cinnamon rolls from scratch is pretty high on that list.
I used Epicurious' recipe mostly because I really wanted to try the cream cheese frosting!!
Let me tell you, they are not hard to make, they just are very time consuming. You have to make the dough a day in advance. I would have to say, the part that I had a hard time with is when you are trying to roll the dough into a roll. I learned that you really have to roll the dough tightly, otherwise, the cinnamon sugar starts to come out and it gets very messy. Also, if they are loose when you are putting them into the pan, when they raise, the sugars starts to fall out into the pan and again it's a mess.
Here are the rolls in the oven.
Here are the rolls after I put the frosting on the top. The cream cheese frosting is amazing!! Just like Cinnabon!!
Here is a picture of the rolls after some were eaten!!
I had to put them in the fridge and I will say that you need to warm them up when you eat them again.

outfit details: Ever New Isabella Striped Tank Top c/o, Ever New Rosie Low Rise Skinner Jean Ever New Fringe Crossbody c/o, Ever New Ashley Ghille Low Block Heels c/o
I spend 90% of my time in casual attire. While I love dresses, frilly skirts, and trousers – there's nothing that is more practical and comfortable than a casual look. I mean, how often are you wearing your favourite bodycon dress to go grocery shopping, right?
For that reason, it's not just important – it's essential – to build a wardrobe the combines casual practicality with your unique sense of style to create summer looks you'll actually want to wear. I promise you, casual style doesn't have to mean dull – and today I am going to show you that with a fun casual (yet totally chic) summer outfit idea!
It's always been important to me to be able to mix casual pieces in with my style. I'm not a dressy sort of person in my daily life, and I honestly prefer fashion that has a more relaxed vibe to it. But I've found that especially during the summer, getting a grasp and understanding on how to build stylish casual summertime outfits is pretty essential to my summer lifestyle.
The fact is, the summertime calls for adventure – and you need your style to transition from whatever and wherever you go. As soon as the sun comes out, I am pretty much always out and about. I love spending my time discovering new happy hours with my girl friends, lazing the day away at the beach, going for a walk around the sea wall, or picnicking an afternoon away with Jer. Summer is my time to get out and have fun, and I don't want to be wasting time running back home in-between adventures to get changed into more appropriate clothing!
Tips on Pulling off a Casual Chic Style
1. Incorporate Current Trends
One way to instantly elevate a casual outfit is by incorporating current fashion trends into your summery look. In today's outfit, I've added in a playful fringe handbag, frayed ombre jeans, and a chunky gold heeled sandal. These little details take a simple t-shirt and jeans outfit and step it up a level.
2. Add in a Metallic Piece
Metallic pieces act as a neutral while still adding visual interest to your outfit. These gorgeous lace-up sandals are lovely to begin with, but add to it that they have one of my summer trends incorporated in them – a chunky gold heel – and suddenly, I can't help but love them. Also, since metallic pieces carry a glamorous element to them, they instantly add a dressier component to your outfit.
In my opinion, metallic pieces are the "no brainers" of style since they really do pair with everything without being a obvious basic. If you ever feel as though you're not sure what will "go" with your outfit, try a metallic handbag or shoe.
3. Show your Stripes
A striped tank top or tee shirt will always wear stylishly. While they are a basic (and a total wardrobe essential), they also bring a fun nautical element to your outfit which is perfect for the summer season.
4. Go Distressed
If you want to really play into your casual style then you're going to want to grab yourself a pair of distressed jeans. Distressed torn-up denim tends to be what I am drawn to. Perhaps it's my inner beach-bum, but I just can't help but love the relaxed care-free vibe that distressed denim brings to mind. These rosie low rise skinny jeans from Ever New aren't only distressed, they also have a ombre frayed hem – which is totally on trend!
Distressed jeans will instantly take a look and bring it to a effortlessly cool level. It'll look as though you rolled out of bed, threw on your comfiest pair of jeans, and somehow managed to look super chic. And I mean, who doesn't love that "I put no effort in and still look chic" sort of look?
5. Say YES to Flats or Low Heels
Rather than forcing yourself to wear those sky high heels, or tall wedges, instead try rocking a cute pair of flats or low heeled sandals. During the summer, you want to be able to get outside and walk around – not hobble around in uncomfortable heels! Even during the winter months, a comfortable pair of flat boots is essential to a practical wardrobe.

Bensalem Council was close to an agreement on how to handle medical marijuana facilities last week with a proposed ordinance regulating them.
According to Bensalem Solicitor Joseph Pizzo, the current zoning code does not provide for the specific uses created by Act 16 of 2016, Pennsylvania's medical marijuana law. The proposed ordinance would create guidelines for growing and processing facilities and dispensaries if they were to end up in the township.
The main issue with the proposed ordinance was whether the 8,400-square-feet limit on growing and processing facilities would be enough to keep potential developers interested.
"We have the industrial space," Councilman Bryan Allen said, suggesting that bringing this industry to Bensalem could be a boon to the local economy. "I did talk to a few industry people and they said with the 8,400 square feet, they wouldn't even look at Bensalem because that's just way too restrictive."
According to Pizzo, that was the original designation given by the township's Building and Planning department when the ordinance was first being drafted at the end of last year.
"We could amend this ordinance at any time," Councilman Joseph Pileri said, meaning that the square-foot requirement could be adjusted at a later date.
The issue was ultimately pushed to council's Feb. 13 meeting so members could have more time to shore up requirements to make sure they are in line with industry standards. Developers would have to come before council for approval before any major steps could be taken.
Other Bucks municipalities including Lower Southampton, Warminster, Falls, Middletown and Northampton townships have put similar ordinances in place already. With the state accepting applications for grower/processor facilities and dispensaries starting in late February, there's an impetus for Bensalem to get something on the books soon.
The Pennsylvania Department of Health is expected to start issuing permits in spring — 12 grower/processor permits and 27 for dispensaries. Bucks County is included in Medical Marijuana Region 1, where two of the grower/processor permits will be distributed. Region 1 also includes Berks, Chester, Delaware, Lancaster, Montgomery, Philadelphia and Schuylkill counties.
For dispensaries, council agreed on regulations set in the proposed ordinance. It outlines that they can be located in the general commercial district, but not within 1,000 feet of residential properties, schools, day-care centers, places of worship, public parks, libraries or community centers, or within 2,000 feet of substance abuse treatment and rehabilitation facilities.
The ordinance also limits hours of operation from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and prohibits people under the age of 18 to enter unless accompanied by a caregiver. There would be requirements for security, no outdoor or drive-thru sales and other regulations.
As drafted, the ordinance had similar requirements for grower/processor facilities. They would also be limited to the township's general industrial district, located primarily in areas near the intersection of Street and State roads.

Mountains like Snowdon, Tryfan and Glyder Fach are deservedly welsh classic mountain routes. There are a variety of routes up these mountains to suit your inclination and experience from walking to grade 1 scrambling.
Walking in the mountains away from the main routes can offer you an opportunity to immerse yourself in the wild heart of Snowdonia. Knowing the area well I can plan and guide you on a route that will take you away from it all, whether it be up to a mountain top or exploring a mountain cwm.
Being able to navigate accurately in the mountains in all weather conditions is a key skill in the safe enjoyment of mountain walking. Knowing where you are and how to get safely down when the weather closes in are vital skills, particularly when you are off the beaten track. If you want to learn to navigate or improve your skills then I can help you achieve this.
The upland mountain environment of Snowdonia provides an important habitat to animals and artic-alpine plant species. The geological history of Snowdonia is complex and is recorded in the peaks and cwms of the area. Volcanoes and glaciers have shaped the mountain landscape. If you're interested then I will share my knowledge of Snowdonia's nature during your guided mountain walk.

Today marks Ada Lovelace Day, a worldwide event that celebrates the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM).
The daughter of Lord Byron, Ada Lovelace is buried alongside her father in St Mary Magdalene's Church, Hucknall.
Ada is most famous for her work on Charles Babbage's mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. She was the first to recognise that the machine had applications beyond pure calculation, and published the first algorithm intended to be carried out by such a machine. As a result, she is regarded as the first to recognise the full potential of a "computing machine" and one of the first computer programmers.
The Council has joined in today's celebrations by flying an Ada Lovelace flag at the Council offices in Kirkby. Raised by Council Leader, Cllr Jason Zadrozny, the flag will be flown every year on Ada Lovelace Day.
To mark Ada's links to Hucknall a plaque was also unveiled in front of the Half Moon pub. Attended by members of the Hucknall Historical Society and Hucknall Tourism & Regeneration Group, the plaque was unveiled by Cllr Jason Zadrozny, who said "Ada Lovelace is a great asset to Ashfield. The impact she had during her short life was huge and she is still an inspiration to women and girls around the world.
"I am proud we are recognising the impact she has had on science, technology, engineering and maths and her links to Hucknall and Ashfield."

Veterans For Peace is closely following developments in Ferguson, MO and the surrounding Saint Louis Region in the aftermath of the killing of unarmed 18 year old Michael Brown Jr. by Darren Wilson, a Ferguson police officer. Having already called for de-escalation of the use of force against protestors and the unrest on Friday, Veterans For Peace members are outraged that Missouri Governor Jay Nixon has called in the National Guard, setting the stage for U.S. military and citizen confrontations.
Veterans For Peace calls on the Governor to rescind his order to deploy the National Guard and instead turn to real de-escalation tactics of talking to the community and moving forward with justice for Michael Brown Jr. Darren Wilson should be immediately brought into custody to help ensure his safety and reassure the public he cannot flee.
"This is appalling but not entirely surprising. The mindset of our government officials both at the national and local level is that force is the answer to almost every problem. The truth is that there is not a military solution to this face off in Ferguson," said Michael T. McPhearson, Veterans For Peace Executive Director and Saint Louis resident.
He goes on to say, "After years of mistrust and abuse by some police officers, the only the solution to the unrest is transparency, the immediate arrest of Darren Wilson and a swift and fair investigation."
National Veterans For Peace board member Tarak Kauff, in Saint Louis to stand in solidarity with the Ferguson community and the Brown family, commented, "Calling in the National Guard, even more military force, is not the answer. It was not the answer before when the militarized St. Louis County Police used it so why would more force now be the answer? Why is the police officer who killed Michael Brown not arrested? That in itself would ease tensions considerably. Force is not the answer. We need the justice process to be carried out and respectful dialogue, not military occupation."
Veterans For Peace has joined with a coalition of groups demanding justice for Michael Brown Jr. The groups are calling for an immediate meeting with Governor Nixon at 3 pm today to pressure him to recall the National Guard and use community trust building strategies, not force, to end the confrontations.
Our nation's consistent option for militarization and the use of deadly force when it is not needed – at home and abroad - is exactly why we find ourselves in this situation. It makes no sense to think more violence and trauma heaped upon the Ferguson community will quell the unrest. The Governor has moved beyond using a militarized police force to using the military. He is relying on intimidation and fear to end this. The only thing that will quiet this storm is justice.

Grandma Taught Me To Crochet Necklace In Sterling Silver
One of the many things I love about the fiber community is that so many of us share the same story, "My grandmother taught me to (insert craft here) when I was little." As a grandmother fangirl, this is my story as well. My grandmother, Faith, taught me to crochet and embroider when I was in 4th grade and I've been doing both on some level ever since. I made this sterling silver hook to honor the handcraft and the relationship with our teachers.
No matter where we learn to crochet it's an integral part of our daily happiness.
The pendant is digitally created by the artist, 3D printed in wax, cast traditionally in Los Angeles and finished by Porterness Studio.
This pendant is more decorative than functional :)

Bowers Forced to Watch as Missouri Surges
COLUMBIA (AP) -- A knee injury in a preseason pickup game has kept Missouri senior Laurence Bowers on the sidelines during a record-setting run by his closest friends and teammates. It hasn't kept Bowers out of the game.
The 6-foot-8 Bowers averaged 11.6 points and a team-high 6.1 rebounds as a junior and led the Big 12 in blocked shots. He tore his left anterior cruciate ligament in early October, raising questions about how the Tigers would fare this season.
First-year coach Frank Haith has instead built No. 7 Missouri (25-4, 12-4) into one of the nation's top teams. From his perch on the bench, Bowers advises fellow forwards Ricardo Ratliffe and Steve Moore. Off the court, he is rehabbing the knee and plans to return next season.

Need an E Pike vegan treat? The Cookie Counter is now open on Capitol Hill inside Gay City.
CHS reported in June on the new partnership at the LGBTQ nonprofit's headquarters that brings the Greenwood-born dessert shop and café for vegan pastries, cookies and ice cream to the 500 block of E Pike. "To be in that space will be nostalgic for us," Chelsea Keene, who co-founded The Cookie Counter with her husband Chris Olson, told CHS in June. "When Chris and I lived on the hill, the previous Kaladi Brothers Coffee space at Gay City was our favorite coffee shop."
You can now find Kaladi Brothers down the street where it has returned to its overhauled original Capitol Hill home.
Meanwhile, there has been plenty of Capitol Hill-area cookie news. 19th Ave E's Hello Robin announced expansion plans in University Village and Lowrider Baking joined the food and drink scene developing around 23rd and Union's new construction.
E Pike will also be getting some new sweets later this summer. Half and Half Doughnut Co. from Top Pot founder Michael Klebeck is expected to open this month.
The Cookie Counter Capitol Hill is located inside Gay City at 517 E Pike. Learn more at seattlecookiecounter.com.

Karnali River Experience.
They say that the journey is better than the destination. That all the experiences along the way are like an accumulation of rocks along a riverbed. This story is another stone in a river.
I have known Mani Aryal for several years, meeting him in the United States, in the state of Utah. Mani and I were both on a work contract to take a group of students down Desolation & Grey Canyon on the Green River. After spending three weeks with Mani I knew that I made a paddling adventure buddy and that he would be a person that I actively stay in contact with. The years have a way of floating by with adventure and intentions. Every time I spoke to Mani he persistently invited me to Kathmandu to see his home and to float the rivers. Three years after saying "no", I finally could say "maybe".
Kathmandu is large in legend and small in structure. The shuttle ride from the airport is an example of whitewater: dodging potholes, must-make moves, and pure adrenaline. It's best not to watch.
There are two options to get to the river when signing up for a Karnali River Expedition trip: 1) take the plane or 2) ride with the guides and gear on public transport. I was on a tight budget, so option #2 was the only way to go. Putting together a multiday river trip is always difficult, especially when you start combining buses, shuttles, and rendezvous. The first leg of the journey was via public transportation to Koholpur. The guides and I, hanging out at the main bus depot, loading all of the gear we would need for the next 12 days was a new experience indeed.
You see a lot of different people and livestock on the long distance buses. Chickens and goats are not uncommon. If a woman is standing with a baby, it's a norm to hand a baby to you, a seated passenger, to hold the child in order to give her a break.
The second half of the shuttle was a private bus to the put-in, the small village of Dungeshor that is located straight down a canyon. The route our bus driver picked was shorter to save fuel but longer because of road conditions. Our bus rocked, creaked and moaned down the road for 8 hours only to cover 85km. "Singletrack" may be a better description than "road" as there were only inches to spare between rock walls and open air.
Sideswiping other buses, scouting rock gardens and pushing our transport were common occurrences that quickly become norms. We reached Dungeshor after 10 pm to hastily inhale some food and beer from a generous restaurant owner who opened his doors after hours. Afterward, we set up our tents on the riverbank to welcome a solid, unwavering piece of ground to usher in some sleep.
The next morning, the guides were in their prime, having already started getting breakfast ready for everyone. Mani was no exception, greeting me with a great, white smile and a coffee to help orient my mind back to my body. The biggest surprise was all of the children hanging about camp. We were all warned not to leave our gear unattended. Later that day, I realized a carabineer walked off to hang out with the children. The guides seemed to include me that much more by laughing and sharing stories of gear gone lost.
Throughout the six days, Mani and his guides were exceptional hosts. It seemed as if they never stopped moving. Always quick to put a coffee in your hand, help you set up your campsite or to offer a meal. Every morning they would barter with local fisherman to add extra flair to the menu. On the water, I felt safe and involved in the risk management. All ideas were heard until a plan formed to be implemented with everyone on board. The standard followed by Mani was professional.
Six months after this trip, the strongest memories I have are of traveling to and from the river. Once I had oars in my hand and a blue sky above me I knew who I was and how I got there.
The total trip duration from Kathmandu to Kathmandu was 10 days included bus journey.
Thank you, Mani. I look forward to our next adventure.

text: Marc A. Hillmyer of the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities, unveiled his group's "reaction-induced self-assembly method" as a modular approach for engineering multifunctional, multicomponent block polymers to serve as nanoporous membranes for drug delivery, water filtration, and separations applications. In commercially available ultrafiltration membranes, there's a trade-off between membrane selectivity and liquid permeability—highly selective membranes have low permeability and vice versa, Hillmyer explained. To overcome this problem, Hillmyer's group has been using the new method to prepare membranes that combine high porosity and narrow pore-size distributions with tunable chemical and mechanical properties. In one example, Hillmyer and coworkers made a membrane from a polymer containing a reactive polystyrene copolymer block (blue), a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) block (PNIPAM, red), and a poly(lactide) block (PLA, green). In the presence of a metathesis catalyst, the reactive block cross-links with polymerizing dicyclopentadiene (blue diamonds) to create the membrane matrix. Etching out the PLA creates pores lined with thermally responsive and reactive PNIPAM. The resulting tough nanoporous material can be formed as thin sheets and holds potential as a highly selective, highly permeable water-filtration membrane, Hillmyer said.

I hate to do this, but I have to call activity onto kingdjk, but I need to go soon. We agreed on 3:00 PM EST, it is currently past 5:00 and I have yet to hear from him
EDIT: screenshot didn't load with original post, click here to see it.
EDIT 2: we've also had other gamblers try to contact him, but there has been no response.
Other Gamblers also apparently tried to contact him to no avail
with my win against Seaco, the Rollouts get the 3rd victory in a row #KeepItRollin

g2: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7vgc2018-692285920
g3: http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7vgc2018-692286090
I appreciate you posting this and it's unfortunate that he didn't show up, but activity calls aren't finalized by players. Him not showing up is a problem, but the Gamblers nor me never heard about this and therefore couldn't do anything. There were subs ready to go who could have immediately stepped in and played. I'm requiring that this match get played (and a subsequent extension will be allowed), but I'm also requiring that the Gamblers sub out Kingdjk as he didn't show up. I'll have DrFidget contact Tan and Chalkey to sort out the substitute, and then you and them can schedule.
Likewise, this is something you tell your manager and have them deal with (or if they're not around, tell the opposing manager or me), not something you take into your own hands. It's okay to try and contact him and the goodwill here is appreciated but that's not the last step to be taken in this instance.
Wait so what is the correct proceeding here? We did in fact alert our manager and it was decided posting on TT was the best course of action. Isn't it the gamblers' fault that they didn't realize their player had a match? We tried to alert them and that didn't work either.
To further this, it doesn't help that the manager of the gamblers has blocked me on twitter.
Couple clarifications here. First, throwing your manager under the bus is never a good look.
Second, you had me blocked on twitter before I even knew who you were.
Lastly this is a TT tourney. You can PM on here or in the NPA discord. No reason to use twitter. When you posted here I contacted Tan and we got everything squared away in about 2 seconds.

The International Monetary Fund has joined the bears, warning that assets are overvalued and that markets are unusually calm considering how unimpressive the global recovery has been and the risks that we're facing over the next year.
"Valuations in virtually all major asset classes are stretched relative to past norms," says the IMF report prepared ahead of this weekend's G20 meeting in Australia. "Long-term bond yields have declined further especially in the euro area but also in the United States and in most emerging economies. Equity valuations have continued to edge higher, as investor sentiment has remained positive despite mixed evidence on the strength of the recovery and geopolitical tensions."
Asset prices: Implied volatility has remained low despite new risks, says IMF
The IMF report doesn't dwell on any specific valuation metrics, taking it as fairly self-evident that asset prices are high, and instead focuses on implied volatility. Implied volatility fell steadily for more than a year before former Fed chairman Ben Bernanke mentioned that quantitative easing would eventually come to an end, jumping immediately to late-2011 levels. Volatility has been falling since then (with a spike last August when President Obama was considering going to war in Syria over chemical weapons) and is now back to early-2013 levels.
Qualivian Investment Partners Up 30% YTD; Long ORLY Thesis
Qualivian Investment Partners commentary for the second quarter ended July 30, 2020. Q2 2020 hedge fund letters, conferences and more "Short-term investors will accept a 20% gain because they didn't spend the time to develop the conviction and foresight to see the next 500%." - Ian Cassell Executive Summary Readers of investment letters fall into Read More
So last year the mention of tapering and the possibility of war in Syria sent volatility climbing, while this year the actual end of QE, war (depending on which administration official you ask) against ISIS in Iraq and Syria, and tensions between Ukraine and Russia are taken in stride.
"This raises concerns of a buildup of excessive leverage and under-pricing of credit risk which could be abruptly corrected in the run-up to U.S. rate hikes or because of higher global risk aversion," says the report, which also cites the risk of deflation in Japan and the eurozone and prolonged secular stagnation among developed economies in general as problems that the markets could be more concerned about.
Asset Prices: IMF recommendations for the G20 summit
Aside from worrying about asset prices, the IMF's main recommendations ahead of the G20 summit are for continued DM monetary accommodation as long as there are "large output gaps and very low inflation," and for deficit countries (especially in the EU) to enact structural reform to improve competitiveness. The IMF also recommends that emerging markets start preparing now for the higher rates and tighter financing that is likely coming soon, and that surplus economies work to bolster domestic demand in case global demand slips again in the future.

The iconic bridge the news flashes on our TV screens every time there is a London story – is the Tower Bridge, not the London Bridge. The photo above was taken from London Bridge, which is right next to it and not nearly as cool. Lore has it that the brick incarnation of London bridge is somewhere in Havisu, Arizona.
Another naïve misperception of London – the Tower of London. Not a tower – but a whole host of towers in a palace complex. Any time I heard the phrase, "locked in the Tower of London" I envisioned a big single tall tower – a la Rapunzel. The reality of the Tower of London is much bigger than expected.
Our visit was great – the preservationist have done an excellent job of preserving and utilizing this unique palace. It is highly functional, not just an old place for gawkers. First and foremost, it is still a dwelling. The tourguides, known as Yeoman, all live on the premise with their families. Isn't that such a cool address? The test to be a yeoman has to include a creative writing exercise on a story of someone being beheaded – we must have heard a dozen or so.
A building in the complex has a fancy name but it should just be known as the Queen's Jewelry Box. All the crown jewels are here for the hoards of tourists to view after waiting in Disney-esque lines. They are well guarded by this guy who stands off to the side and gets mocked all day long.
The original palace, or the facsimile of the original palace is the armory museum. We have seen a few of these and this one takes the cake, armour, cannons, swords more looted stuff. It is all in there. They had an exhibit on cool things that wre gifts from other countries. The US gift purchaser should have been fired – the US display was an Indian headdress and arrow-heads. We gave them something we stole from someone else!
You can never have enough swords. or Epees, or Rapiers or whatever the actual term for these are – but there are a lot and so very well organized.
Our wanderings today took us by the Justice building, Twinings Tea (free box of tea with tourist guidebook), Shakespeare's Globe, the building used for the exterior shots of Gringots from the Harry Potter movies and the Tate Modern. We ended the day at an art museum which instantly deflated Brody. The Tate had some nice pieces but not nearly as interesting as what we have seen in other museums.
These pieces by Mark Rothko are part of a set of 6 that were commissioned by a Four Seasons hotel. Rothko finished and decided they were too important to be in a commercial environment and backed out of the deal. A darkened room with a single bench is, oh, so much better.
This study of the color gray makes for a nice photo. They are a copy of a bust of Nefertiti. The original bust is in a museum in Berlin – Egypt wants it back.

PW Freeze-Dried Salmon – How its made..ingredients Matter
- 31 January 2019
- 0 Comments
- richsmith
The freeze-dried method is basically a slow freeze process which lets to keep all the nutritional values that are lost through the cooking at high temperature. Firstly the food is being frozen in the machine, then dehydrated and finally dried. Most of the ingredients are raw or very lightly processed. The maximum amount of water is removed from the ingredients in order to keep the contamination and bacteria away! It's also a reason why freeze and dried food can be stored longer than normally dried kibble. You don't have to worry that if you leave the product in a bowl for a whole day, it will produce bacteria harmful for your dog.
Unlike many freeze-dried treats, our salmon is not pressure treated and is made from wild caught salmon here in the USA. No artificial preservatives or fillers. We keep the skin on due to the naturally high concentration of omega-3's. This high protein treat is great for both cats and dogs. It helps promote heatlty skin and coat!
