Place: SAUNABAD,
Rykestraße 10. Mo–Sa 15–24 h, So 12–24 h, Eintritt \ Entry 8 Euro*
Sauna für Arbeitslose is an art project that creates a space for sharing knowledge on social and political environments organized by the ideologies of work. Interrogating and staging three common positions a person can attain in society – employer, employee, and unemployed – two groups of three unemployed persons are employed for having a sauna together. The sauna is a space for relaxation, purification and physical exhaustion but also offers an opportunity for confidant conversations. The job assignment is to sweat and share a conversation about personal experiences and knowledge on the society gained from "being unemployed". The conversations are recorded and the sweat—a well-known metaphor for hard work and a physical product of labor—is collected on towels.
In September 2016 Sauna für Arbeitslose was realized in Berlin in the frame of Undisciplinary Learning: CITY and in collaboration with Saunabad. The record of the intellectual and physical labor produced by the participants – conversations and sweat collected in towels – built the basis for the site-specific installation at the reading room of the sauna, that can be visited until 19 November.
Frida Klingberg's interest lies in finding new ways to derive stories from unrepresented positions. Her work aims to initiate exchange on personal experiences and structures that conduce a demand for non-hierarchal ethics. Sauna for the unemployed is a process-based art project that was first realized in Sweden in 2014-2015. The installation resulting from this first edition is on view in the exhibition Undisciplinary Learning: SPACE at District.

Kenneth Omeruo has completed a permanent transfer to La Liga side Leganes.
The defender returns to the club where he spent a successful season on loan in 2018/19, making 31 appearances.
Omeruo signed for Chelsea in 2012 from Standard Liege, and subsequently spent time on loan in the Netherlands, Turkey, Spain and with Championship side Middlesbrough.

I don't know who came up with "Lip Flip" on "The Tonight Show" but I hope they got a raise. This hilarious yet nightmare inducing segment is always…something.
Last night the lip transplant recipient was none other than Sofia Vergara. And I'll be honest, maybe Fallon should consider a red lip more often. It really makes his look pop!

Whether you are a teacher or a business owner, if visually presentations are an important part of what you do for a living, then a document camera is a tool that you simply must have. A document camera works in conjunction with a projector, allowing you to project an object onto a big screen with ease. They are commonly used in classrooms and board rooms, as they are an easy and effective way to project images from textbooks or projects onto a screen, creating an attractive, clear and easy to see enlarged visual presentation.
A document camera can certainly be a handy tool; however, finding the best one for your needs can be a bit challenging. As you are shopping for a document camera, you will find that there are several options to choose from. While having a lot of options is a good thing, it can also make determining which document camera is the best option for you a bit difficult. To help you on your quest for finding the best document camera, we have assembled this handy buyer's guide. In it, you will find a wealth of valuable information related to buying a document camera, including the different types of document cameras that are available, the factors that you should take into consideration when purchasing one, the different features these tools can be equipped with and the best brands available. With the information presented in this guide, finding the best document camera for your needs will be a breeze.
Types of Document Cameras
There are three main types of document cameras, which include:
- The portable document camera
- The desktop document camera
- The ceiling visualizer document camera
Each of these three types of document cameras offers different benefits. To determine which type will best meet your needs, understanding the difference between each type if essential. To better understand these three types of document cameras, please keep on reading.
The Portable Document Camera
The portable document camera is the smallest of the three types. They are also the most lightweight. Because of its compact size and lightweight design, the portable document camera is the easiest to transport and use in different locations. If you are a college professor, for example, and you want to use your document camera to provide a visual presentation in different classrooms, this type is an excellent choice for you. While its size and weight certainly makes the portable document camera convenient, the downside is that they usually aren't equipped with as many features as desktop and ceiling visualizer models.
The Desktop Document Camera
A desktop document camera works similarly to an overhead projector and is roughly the same size and weight. Because it is larger, this type of document camera often offers more options and is more powerful than portable models; however, because of its larger size and heavier weight, the desktop document camera isn't as easy to transport as the portable variety.
The Ceiling Visualizer
The ceiling visualizer document camera is the largest of all document cameras. As the name suggests, this type of document camera attaches to a ceiling and allows for larger objects to be displayed. This models does not boast any technical equipment that can restrict the views of the audience and the presenter, making it unobtrusive and the images that are cast easier to see. This type of document camera is ideal for making presentations in large rooms, such as conference rooms or lecture halls. Because they are affixed to the ceiling, these document cameras are stationary and cannot be transported. The ceiling visualizer document camera also tends to be the most expensive of the three types.
These three types of document cameras can either be analog or digital. Here's a look at the difference between these two types:
- Analog document cameras – Analog document cameras produce NTSC video images. These images are transmitted in a manner that is similar to the signals that are emitted from a standard VCR.
- Digital document cameras – A digital document camera produces computer compatible signals. This type of document camera is usually more expensive than an analog version; however, they provide higher quality images and the offer more flexibility.
Factors to Consider then Choosing a Document Camera
You want to make sure that you choose the best document camera for your specific needs. In order to do that, there are a number of factors that you should take into consideration before you purchase one. These factors include the resolution, the color reproduction and the lighting that this type of visual presenter offers, among other things. By taking the following factors into consideration, you will be able to choose the best document camera for your specific needs. To learn more about these factors, please keep on reading.
The Resolution
The resolution that a document camera offers refers to the number of pixels that it displays. These pixels usually range from 800 x 600 to 1024 x 768. The higher the resolution, the better quality the image the document camera will produce. It should also be noted that digital document cameras usually offer a better resolution than analog document cameras. Keep this in mind when shopping for a document camera, as you want to make sure that you choose one that will create the clearest images possible.
The Color Reproduction
The color reproduction that a document camera offers is another important factor to take into consideration when choosing the best one to suit your needs. Generally, the majority of document cameras offer decent color reproduction qualities; however, if the reproduction of the colors that the document camera creates is highly important for your presentation purposes, then you really are going to want to determine how effective the color reproduction is.
The Lighting
The lighting that the document camera offers is another factor that you are going to want to take into consideration, as it will directly impact the images that it projects. The majority of document cameras boast built in fluorescent lighting; however, some smaller portable document cameras do not. For that reason, it is important to determine if the document camera you are considering purchasing has enough external lighting available.
Zoom Capability
If zooming in during your presentations is important for you, then you are going to want to consider the document camera's zoom capabilities. The zoom capabilities allow you to, as you have probably assumed from the name of this function, allow you to zoom in on items in your presentations. The better the zoom capabilities, the better the document camera will be at enlarging your images.
Depth of Field
If you are planning to use your document camera to display three dimensional objects, than the depth of field is another important factor to consider. The better the depth of field, the better your document camera will be at being able to focus on objects of varying heights and varying surfaces.
The Price
Everyone has a budget, so it's important to factor in the price of the document camera when deciding which one to choose. Generally, the smaller and the less features document camera offers, the less expensive it will be, while larger document cameras that boast more features are usually the most expensive. Make sure you know how much you want to spend on the document camera before you start shopping so that you can be mindful of the amount you spend.
If you are going to be using your document camera in different locations, you want to make sure you purchase one that is lightweight and easily to transport. As the name suggests, portable document cameras are the easiest to transport. Desktop document cameras are larger and not as easy to transport than portable document cameras; however, they can still be transported. Ceiling mounted document cameras are stationary and cannot be transported.
Document Camera Features
Document cameras can offer a variety of features. These features are intended to make the document camera easier to use and improve its functionality. However, as noted above, the more features that a document camera boasts, the more expensive it will be. To determine whether or not you need these features and if it is worth spending the extra money, it is important to understand the intended purposes of these features.
Here is a look at some of the most popular features that document cameras boast.
A Built In Microphone
Some document cameras features built in microphones. If you plan on making presentations that will include audio along with video, then this is a feature that you will find very hand. Simply press a button and you will be able to record your audio so that it can be played while the camera projects its images.
Interactivity Feature
If you wish to use your document camera to create an interactive presentation, look for one that offers an interactivity feature. Document cameras that boast this feature easily integrate with other solutions, allowing you to create a connected space and enhances the experience of the presentation.
Microscope Adapter
A microscope adapter is a useful feature, as it makes the document camera an even more versatile tool. With this feature, you will have the ability to display even the tiniest details on a large screen, which can further enhance lessons or presentations.
A document camera that features an annotation tool will allow you to make markings over the pictures or videos that the camera projects. You can use this tool to jot down notes or to highlight important information on the images that you are presenting.
A Remote Control
A document camera that features a remote control will allow you to operate the camera with ease from multiple locations. If you like to move around the space while you are presenting, than this is a feature that you will find particularly beneficial.
Reference Monitor
Some document cameras feature a reference monitor. This feature allows you to preview live images, which allows you to see exactly what your audience will be seeing displayed on the screen. This feature is particularly helpful when greater accuracy for your presentations is needed.
The Best Document Camera Brands
There are several companies that manufacture document cameras, which is great, because it gives you a lot of options; however, having so many options can make it difficult to determine what manufacturers produce the best quality document cameras. To help you determine which brands will provide you with the best results, we have done some extensive research, including comparing user reviews and testing out several models ourselves. Our assessment has concluded that the following document cameras are the best of the best.
Ipevo Ziggi
This company produces a range of high quality document cameras that offer various features. They are easy to use and they provide exceptional images.
Lumens is a highly regarded name in the electronics industry, and their document cameras stand up to their reputation. We liked the variety of document cameras that they offer and the range of features that are available.
Elmo document cameras are hailed as some of the best among the teachers and presenters that use them. They offer high quality technologies and excellent features that make their document cameras very easy to use and allow them to provide outstanding projection quality.
HUE is another manufacturer that produces high quality document cameras. This company uses the latest innovations and the most state of the art technologies to create outstanding products that deliver high quality results.

I have this same issue! It can be soooo annoying trying to work and large documents and you have this. It looks very tacky and undesirable....
Please fix this Adobe.
Please fix this Adobe.
Neither example you give looks like Photoshop's drop shadow effect. And the layer styles rendering code hasn't changed in a long time.
What effect settings are you using?
And did you accidentally change the settings between versions?

I am a sign man and the left ex. is size and choke way up. The one on the right is what I wish it could do as a sign man.
I meant to say size and spread
Then you aren't talking about distortion at all, but a request for a completely different effect (more of a 3D extrusion than a shadow).
It does distort on corners, look at flat lines around the corner. Looks awful when enlarging on sign
If it isn't working any differently from how it worked before, then it isn't distortion - that is just the way it works.
Rick is correct. 100% spread creates very jagged edges in large documents, making it unusable in such cases. Seems to be poor anti-aliasing (or none at all).
This problem still exists today and makes 100% spread unusable in large documents.

The beauty of Ford's Fox platform is that you can mix-and-match whatever you want to make something truly unique. Unfortunately, it's not often actually done. We've seen a couple of machines that make us want to raid junkyards to piece together a unique take on the Fox platform…in my personal case, the nose cone from a Ford LTD on a Fairmont Futura/Zephyr Z7 body and a 1979-82 Mustang dashboard sounds amazing, but this wagon is even more off-the-wall than I could have expected. What you are looking at is the successful cross-pollination of late Eighties Mustang GT and a 1981 Fairmont station wagon, but the fun only starts there…
Yes, Virginia, that massive scoop does have a purpose: it feeds the 514ci Super Cobra Jet mill under the hood. This is the kind of setup that would still be scary fast if you pulled two plug wires, so don't sweat the horsepower and torque figures. There is not one ounce of subtlety or sleeper to be found with this wagon…and that makes it awesome. What's even more awesome is that the car is street legal and can be driven away from the dealership once you take possession of the keys. Hey…she said "practical car", right? What isn't practical about a station wagon?
Here's the rundown from the listing: "Under the hood is a 514ci Super Cobra Jet engine with aluminum heads. It's an engine that would definitely make the Mustang lovers proud. Edlebrock RPM Gap intake, 4150 HP 900 CFM carb, MSD ignition, custom coated headers and 3 inch exhaust, ARP studs and fasteners, Barry Grant fuel pump, newly done C6 automatic, 2500 stall converter, Turbo Action Cheetah shifter, line lock, new drive shaft with new yokes and HD U-joints, 9-inch rear with Detroit Locker 3.5, ME axles, Aluminum center section, 4-Link with Panhard bar, new Wilwood rear disc setup, new Wilwood front disc setup with slotted and cross drilled rotors, remote hydroboost brake system, welded in frame connectors, tubular lower control arms, QA1 aluminum coil overs all around, new tubular K member and rack. Under the car is either painted or powder coated. Remote HD oil cooler, new aluminum cross flow radiator with three fans, additional cooler with fan above rear center section, FMS pump, aluminum housing, billet pulleys. Has a complete Mustang dash. Aluminum fuel cell with sender. Interior has all new carpet, headliner, upholstered bench seat, powder coated roll bar, five-point belts, Auto Meter gauges, removeable steering wheel. The rear doors have been shaved but the doors still open from the inside. Torque Thrust wheels, MT 30×13.5-15 ET Street slicks, Sportsman fronts, and the list goes on…"

WASHINGTON, December 11, 2017: A previous prediction that Democrats would be shellacked in the mid-term 2018 elections says:
"Since the Democrats refuse to provide solutions but simply have taken an "anything but Trump" position, they have nothing positive to offer."
Without a positive alternative, they can't win the 2018 elections.
Prediction: Dems shellacked in 2018 elections, Trump wins reelection in 2020
Democrats' 2018 Election plan
McClatchy's Washington Bureau reports that Democrats are ready to promote class warfare. The Dems will say that the GOP is out of touch with mainstream America since they passed a tax cut that favors the rich and gutted a healthcare law that resulted in millions of citizens not having health care coverage.
Already, McClatchy notes, Dems are poll testing the class war message. They are framing the message to say Republicans are responsible for the class wars by instituting policies that favor the upper class at the expense of the lower class.
J.B. Poersch, President of Senate Majority PAC, a group aligned with Senate Democrats says,
"Democrats have a pretty simple message: Republicans have failed to defend working families both in terms of health care and in this awful tax bill. 2018 is about holding them accountable for making the promise."
In other words, the Dems offer a "not Trump, not Republicans" solution. That negative positioning previously failing them miserably in 2014 and 2016. It will also fail them miserably in the 2018 elections.
By then, the positive results of the tax cut and the positive results of the new health care law will show that the policies of the Republicans are working.
The GOP tax cut really does benefit the middle class.
Although the Democrats and the mainstream media continue to say that the GOP tax cut is a cut for the wealthy and an increase for the middle class, that is simply not true. Almost every middle and low-class income earner will see a reduction in tax rates along with an increase in the standard deduction.
This helps almost 50% of income earners who, in reality, already pay little or no income tax.
The highest income earners get no tax cuts. They will, however, lose big deductions from their chosen housing expense, ending up with higher tax rates. The corporate tax rate will fall from 35% to 20%. This benefits anyone who owns stock in any corporation. The wealthy own much of the stock, but so does everyone else who has put any money into their retirement account. The middles class will be wealthier as a result.
Besides, the main purpose of the corporate tax cut is to create more capital. The increase in capital coupled with the increased profitability of investments due to the lower tax rate will lead to a huge increase in business investment. That expands the economy, so annual economic growth will reach 4% or 5% or perhaps even more. That leads to a greater demand for labor which provides more opportunity at higher wages for well-prepared Americans.
There will be a new health care law before the 2018 elections
The current Affordable Care Act (ACA) is failing. The failure is due to designing a system whose design was to benefit the bottom 15% of income earners at the expense of everyone else. It is also failing because it forces people to make a purchase they simply do not want to make.
Because a complete meltdown of the ACA is imminent, a new law will have to be passed. Whether it is a complete repeal and replace or simply a significant modification, the new law, which will mostly follow the GOP position rather than the Dems position, will be showing some positive results. By November 2018, the failing health care system will no longer be an issue. Dems will likely say that when the new law is fully in place, millions of American lives will be lost.
If the Dems really want to win in upcoming 2018 elections, they must back off the "anything but Trump" negative message. They must start to offer positive alternatives, like a better tax plan or a better health care plan. Simply promoting a negative message or hoping that they will successfully impeach Trump will not win the 2018 elections, or 2020.
Since a two-party system, that encourages healthy debate, is critical to the welfare of Democracy, let's hope the Democrats learn to offer positive policies instead of negative rhetoric.

Background System Info: 1 x Intel E6750 processor, 2 x 320GB SATA II in RAID 1 (OS), 5 x 320GB SATA II in RAID 5 (DATA/VMs), Intel Series 3 chipset with ICH9R mainboard, 4GB DDR2 memory, SATA DVD-Writer.
On the same host, I have upgraded the VMware Server from v1.0.6 to v2.0RC1. First noticeable difference is the amount of free physical memory available despite no chance in number of guests/VMs running. Allowed it to run for >24 hours, the amount of free physical memory still remains low (<512MB). In v1.0.6, the memory trimming would result in unused memory by the guests/VMs to be return back to memory pool thus the amount of free physical memory would normally increase after the guests/VMs are left to perform its low tasks over a period of time (eg. 12 hours). However, with VMware Server 2.0RC1, the memory trimming does not appear to be working as there is no increase in amount of free physical memory on the host.
Further, if the VMware Remote Console is left open over a period of time, the console would appear sluggish. Closing it and relaunch a new VMware Remote Console would restore the responsiveness.

Secret Obama Picture That Could Have 'Ended His Presidency' Leaked
A journalist has released a photo of Barack Obama taken in 2005 claiming the picture could have ended his presidential campaign.
Photojournalist Askia Muhammad released a photo earlier this week that shows the former president grinning next to the controversial Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
Taken in 2005 at a Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) meeting when Obama was a state senator, Muhammad told Fox News that he was pressured to keep the photo secret in case it damaged the politician's future career.
To see the picture and interview with Muhammad, watch the video below:
[ooyala player_id="5df2ff5a35d24237905833bd032cd5d8″ auto="true" width="1280″ height="720″ pcode="twa2oyOnjiGwU8-cvdRQbrVTiR2l" code="EzcXg0ZTE6vO42Cq5JImT0IYE1phpD1U"]
Farrakhan has been known to make both anti-semitic and homophobic remarks in the past which resulted in Obama having to denounce them during a presidential debate in 2008 in Cleveland.
Asked why this picture has never been seen before, Muhammad explained:
I was honour bound immediately. The day the picture was taken, a staff member from the CBC called me and said that we have to have the picture back.
I was taken aback and we talked and I agreed to give the picture to Farrakhan's chief of staff. I gave the original disc to him and in a sense swore myself to secrecy because I had quietly made a copy for myself.
Perhaps they sensed the future, Obama had only been in office for a few months but I think as people considered his ambitions the thought was that Minister Farrakhan and his reputation would hurt someone trying to win acceptance in the broad cross-section.
He also concluded that if the picture had been made public during Obama's presidential campaign it 'would absolutely have made a difference'.
Muhammad also added that Farrakhan and members of the Nation of Islam were offended when Obama distanced himself from them.
He said:
Some were, many were angry and many were hurt that not only had Senator Obama denounced Minister Farrakhan, he had rejected him.
In the same interview appearing with Senator Clinton who also said that she rejected the support of some people she considered unacceptable.
People in the Nation have a sensitivity about this.
It is not clear why he has now decided to release the photo.
This follows news that Obama had once again been voted the most admired man in the world.
It is the tenth year in a row the 44th President has won the Gallup poll, which was released earlier this month.
17 per cent of pollers declared the former Commander-in-Chief as the man the world most admired with current president Donald Trump coming in second place with 14 per cent.
The poll also found that Trump's former rival Hillary Clinton was voted as the world's most admirable woman, beating out former First Lady Michelle Obama.
For Obama, the number of adults who have named him the most admired man is down from 22% last year.

- Belgian squad launches first full campaign in the German series, alongside the GT World Challenge Europe
- GT3 race programme to include also IGTC and VLN, as well as great endurance races such as Nürburgring, Daytona, Dubai and Sebring
- Season 2 in the DTM to be the other great challenge ahead
Team WRT will add the ADAC GT Masters to its portfolio of race programmes in 2020. This will be the first time that the Belgian squad will run a full campaign in the ADAC GT Series, which has become one of the top continental series for GT3 in Europe, with 23 teams and 39 cars for the next season already been announced by the organizers.
The team will be entering two Audi R8 LMS, with driver line-ups to be announced in due course.
WRT has already confirmed its 2020 DTM programme under the colours of WRT Team Audi Sport. For its second season in the competition, after a very positive debut in 2019, Ed Jones and Fabio Scherer will be at the wheel of the Audi RS 5 DTM.
GT3 racing will continue to be the main area of activity for Team WRT. The squad has confirmed it will enter the 10 rounds (Endurance and Sprint) of the GT World Challenge Europe, which takes the baton of the Blancpain GT Series where Team WRT and the Belgian Audi Club have enjoyed great success. The driver line-ups are currently being defined and will be announced in due course.
Team WRT will also be present in the Intercontinental GT Challenge and return to the Nürburgring 24 Hours, which it won in 2015. It will also contest in selected events of the VLN Endurance series. Additionally, Team WRT will participate in some selected great endurance races, like the Dubai and Daytona 24 Hours, for which details have been recently announced, and the Sebring 12 Hours, where it will make its debut.
Vincent Vosse, Team Principal: "2020 is around the corner and we are actively preparing it. It will be the season marking the start of the second decade in the life of WRT and this only adds to our motivation and to our determination to be even more successful than in the first decade! We are refocusing our efforts on two categories, the DTM, where we laid out a solid base from where to approach our second season, and GT3 racing, which remains our core activity and where we will have a really exciting programme, including some of the greatest endurance races in the world. Details will be unveiled in the coming weeks, as we are still in discussion with some competitive drivers to fill up the last available seats, but the great news today is to announce that we are off for our first full campaign in the ADAC GT Masters. It looks tremendously competitive and well-attended for next year and that we are really looking forward to be part of it."

Claim Services
Charting in RTasks allows for flexibility when scheduling services. Some facilities use multiple providers, in which each provider on a given day and shift has their own assignment:
- Day HHA 1
- Day HHA 2
- Day HHA 3
- Eve HHA 1
- Eve HHA 2
- Overnight
Alternatively, some facilities schedule to a single provider per shift and allow the caregivers to coordinate between themselves who will do each resident's service(s). For example:
- Day HHA
- Eve HHA
- Overnight HHA
For providers using this latter method, ResiDex offer a means by which providers at the beginning of a shift can "claim" services by resident that they will be responsible for. By claiming resident services, it will bring all those claimed services to the top of that employee's To Do list, and it will also flag the items so the other caregivers can see the plan.
To Activate This Feature:
- From Desktop ResiDex go to Setup and open the Campus Configuration Screen
- Select the Category "RTasks"
- Find the evaluation option "Allow Tasks to be Claimed" and set the value to "Yes"
Claim Items in RTasks:
- Log into RTasks and select a Provider
- Click the "Claim" option next to the "Change Sort Order" button
- A window will appear to select residents. Click the box by the residents you wish to claim responsibility for
- When finished, click "Close"
- The Today screen now shows a new sort order with the residents' services you claimed appearing at the top of the To Do list, and
- Each service is flagged with the name of the person who claimed that resident's services.
- Staff can still select services claimed by others and perform/document the services, and so work collaboratively.

Leave Me Alone!
Social interaction among children starts at a young age and is experienced on a daily basis for the rest of their lives — both in positive and negative ways. One of the more negative aspects of children's social relationships is bullying, and it affects the child who is bullying others, the child who is being bullied and the other children who are inadvertently involved.
Bullying, Defined
What is bullying exactly? The American Psychological Association defines bullying as "a form of aggressive behavior in which someone intentionally and repeatedly causes another person injury or discomfort. Bullying can take the form of physical contact, words or more subtle actions." In order for behavior to be considered bullying, it not only must be aggressive, it also must show an imbalance of power and be repeated.
An imbalance of power means that the child who is bullying uses physical actions, embarrassing information or their popularity to exclude the child being bullied from activities. Today, bullying has moved from the schoolyard to include cyberbullying, which is defined as "bullying that takes place over digital devices such as cellular phones, computers and tablets." The most common platforms are through social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter, but bullying can also occur through texting and apps. Cyberbullying is persistent and is harder for parents and teachers to spot because it happens online. It also occurs in conjunction with bullying at school.
Bullying occurs everywhere, but the most likely place is at school and, according to the Department of Health and Human Services website, StopBullying.com, the playground and the bus are the areas with the most significant amount of bullying incidents. Bullying can happen during school or after school, and most of the reported accounts of bullying happen inside the school building. Studies by the National Center for Education Statistics, the Bureau of Justice and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that 20 to 21 percent of students in grades 9 through 12 nationwide have reported being bullied on school property.
Kids Who Bully
While kids who are bullied suffer both mentally and physically, those who are doing the bullying also have negative consequences associated with their actions. They are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol in adolescence and continue into adulthood. They are more likely to get into fights or vandalize property resulting in criminal convictions, become sexually active at an early age and act abusively toward their romantic partners, spouses and children. Kids who witness bullying also suffer from mental health problems such as anxiety and depression. They also tend to miss more school days and have more problems involving tobacco, alcohol and drugs.
What makes a child more likely to bully others? Studies have shown that there are two types of kids who are more likely to bully others. The first type is the child who is socially well connected to his peers, is overly concerned with his popularity and likes to be in charge. The second type is the child who is socially isolated from his peers, has low self-esteem and has difficulty understanding other people's feelings. According to StopBullying.com, other warning signs include kids who are aggressive or easily frustrated, have less parental involvement or have problems at home, or think badly of others, especially those who are different from them. Kids who have difficulty following rules, view violence positively or are friends with children who bully others are also more likely to become those who bully.
Kids play other roles in bullying. Those who assist in bullying usually do not start or lead the bullying, but assist the child who is bullying in his activities by giving him encouragement and occasionally joining in. Kids who reinforce bullying behavior are those who provide an audience for the child who is bullying. They do not join in the bullying behavior but, instead, will laugh and provide support for the bully to continue what he's doing. Outsiders do not provider assistance to or reinforcement for the child who is bullying, but they do not step forward to defend the child being bullied, either.
The Bully vs. the Bullied
You may wonder if your child is bullying other kids. There is no one factor that makes a child more likely to bully others. Likewise, there is no particular setting that is more likely to have bullying than others. Bullying occurs in private schools and public schools, in cities, suburban and rural areas. Some groups that may be at a higher risk for being singled out and bullied include children who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning (LGBTQ) or kids who have physical or mental disabilities.
Options and Resources
Due to the prevalence of bullying and the lifelong impact bullying can have on kids, state and local lawmakers have taken action to prevent bullying and to protect children. Each state addresses bullying differently through laws and model policies. Bullying, cyberbullying and related behaviors may be addressed in single or multiple laws. In some cases, bullying appears in the criminal code of a state that may apply to juveniles. Depending on the state and applicable laws, penalties for cyberbullying sanctions could range anywhere from civil penalties, such as school intervention via suspensions and/or expulsions, to jail time for criminal misdemeanors and even felonies.
Parents and teachers need to be aware of behaviors in kids that indicate they are bullying others. Some include frequent physical or verbal confrontations with others, associating with students who are known to bully others, having new belongings or money, blaming others for their problems or not accepting responsibility for what they have done. Other signs may include making negative racial comments about minorities or showing signs of discrimination towards others who are different from them.
There are steps to help the child who is bullying. You have a great deal of influence over your kids, and they look to you for guidance. Children learn how to act by watching the adults in their lives. Modeling respectful behavior is one way to prevent bullying. Other ways to curb bullying behavior include showing acceptance of people who are different from you and talking about bullying and why it is wrong. Talk with your children about what they did at school, who they sat with at lunch or their favorite part of the day. Ask if they saw anything that bothered them. Encourage them to participate in activities they enjoy to help build their self-esteem.
There are many resources available to help parents and children deal with bullying, including school personnel, mental health counselors and your healthcare provider. By working together, parents, educators and kids can prevent bullying in their community and build a stronger, healthier population.

Austin Film Society presents Don't Look Back: 50th Anniversary Screening
Many events have been canceled or postponed due to coronavirus concerns. Please check with the organization before going to any event.
D.A. Pennebaker's cinematic portrait of 23-year-old Bob Dylan is more than just the record of a talented musician; it also depicts the flowering of a certain kind of consciousness. Again and again in his interactions with fans, fellow musicians, and local dignitaries, Dylan subverts the idea of what a famous singer should be.
His steady stream of patter and in-jokes seems modern even today - like a time traveler who would shortly, more than anyone else, make over the era in his image. Not primarily a music doc, though it is filled with unforgettable performances, this is a completely one-of-a-kind movie about a one-of-a-kind person, and Pennebaker's direct cinema style captures the man, the music, and the attitude for all time.

The 785 HUEZ is a variation of the 785 HUEZ RS, from which it directly takes it shape. Made from the same mold, this version benefits from all the optimization research, but is constructed from a different blend of carbon fibres.
The result is a bicycle with an exceptional price-weight-performance ratio. It is the most affordable competition-ready bicycle in the LOOK lineup. It is already an exceptional carbon frame, a great foundation, and as a bicycle as a whole, one which you may easily add personal upgrades to over time. Without a doubt, this bicycle will delight young competitors and passionate cyclists alike who are looking for an efficient, comfortable and versatile bicycle.
The frame weighs only 990 grams. The 785 HUEZ has already made its entrance into the very light bicycle realm, but this is far from its only asset. Equipped with a 100% carbon tapered down tube and bottom bracket shell, pedal power is transferred to its maximum. Ultra-slim seat stays contribute to rider comfort, and a 27.2mm seatpost, strategically chosen for its flexibility properties, enhances that comfort even more.
The bicycle's precise handling and stability are assured thanks to its rigid fork and head tube. This is especially important for a bicycle destined for the mountains because the fact that it climbs well is not enough. It must also be and feel safe and reliable when descending. In the Tour de France, the descents down the towering cols can also make a difference. Light, rigid, stable, and comfortable, the 785 HUEZ is a phenomenally versatile bicycle. It not only climbs well in the mountains, but is also highly effective on the flats, long distance rides in rolling hills, such as «Gran Fondos», and great for anything short and fast, like criteriums.
With over 30 years of carbon technology know-how, skill and expertise, LOOK engineers, in their manufacturing facility, ultra-precisely define the position and orientation of each of the thin layers of carbon used to create their tubes.
To create the 785 HUEZ RS, we began by studying and improving the shape of all of the tubes. Optimizing the shape requires defining the design that provides the maximum inertia for each tube, that is to say, to choose the optimal length, size and shape that produces the best stiffness-to-weight ratio.
We therefore, opted for a sleek and sophisticated design based on precise research, entirely focused upon the search for efficiency and performed by our engineers, to create an ultralight bicycle with the best possible characteristics. A tube sidewall thickness of 0.6mm was ultimately chosen.
Once the optimal length, size and tube thickness have been determined, the next step is to establish the ideal carbon composition to achieve our objective, the creation of the best bicycle made for climbing. To accomplish this, the recipe is similar to that of gastronomic cuisine. To make the best dish, one needs ingredients of the highest quality. LOOK has therefore selected only superior carbon fibres, including the finest of the high modulus, to create the HUEZ 785. We have chosen four different types of carbon, each one selected for its outstanding quality in its category.

It was two days ago, December 23rd. The doorbell rings. It's Mr. Postman dropping off a box. I picked up the box and gasped in horror and amazement at the return address. My father. The box is addressed to my 24 year old daughter. There is a postal forwarding sticker on it. My father doesn't know we've moved to another state so he addressed the box to our previous address. Our mail forwarding is still in effect for a couple more months so his package was routed to our present location and not returned to him. (By the way, we put in a "temporary forwarding" which has some advantages if you're trying to keep your new address from someone. During the forwarding period, the post office will not do address correction. At the end of the forwarding period, the post office will still not do address correction. It is a great way to keep those stacks of catalogs from following you to your new address as well.)
My father and I stopped all communication in October 2005 after a hopeless exchange of letters in the wake of my telling my mother I was not going to talk to her anymore. His motivation was to convince me to make things "right" with my mother. My motivation was to tell him I would still like to have a relationship with him even though I found that having one with my mother was insupportable. He made it clear that wasn't an option. I very politely ended our hopeless exchange allowing him the "winning position" by not answering his last letter to me which was filled with history revisionism, lies and accusations. I didn't want to further antagonize him by continuing to refute him.
Back to the box. My daughter immediately opened it and found a very short, typed note on top of a photo album. The note said:
Dear N......,
Since my three score and ten is rapidly approaching I wanted to give you this before it was too late and your family history was lost forever. It is nice to know where you come from, even if there is a rift in the family right now. I know your children and their children etc. will appreciate it even if it doesn't seem important right now.
I hope you all have a great Christmas season.
On the front of the album is a computer generated label that says, "The Family History of [Daughter's full name]. The album starts with my father's side of the family. A few copies of old documents going back to my great, great grandfather with some very old photos. Cool. The bulk of the album is dedicated to my father's side of the family. All the photos are copies. Until he gets to pictures of me as a child. Original photos all. Yes, indeed. Apparently, he doesn't need to keep originals where I am in the picture. Interesting. Then he has a large picture of me with my first husband who is daughter's biological father. This is a man who was almost entirely absent from my daughter's life. But he is memorialized in this photo genealogy simply because blood is all that matters with my dad. My daughter was raised by the loving man I am still married to, and he adopted her. He doesn't even get an "honorable mention" in this album, except, perhaps, for the fact that the full name of my daughter splashed across the outside of this album includes the last name of her adoptive father! This inclusion of her bio dad and exclusion of her REAL dad greatly irked my daughter. There were other significant oversights in this picture gallery of people. Including my daughter's older brother who died in infancy. No indication that he ever existed.
Then my dad gets to my mother's side of the family. Two pictures of my maternal grandmother. One when she was around 18 and the other when she was in her 60's. That's it. No pictures of my mother's many siblings, cousins, grandparents, or even of my mother (except where she is in pics of me or daughter in the previous section of the album). This has led to various speculations on our part. I suspect that my mother is being petulant and refusing to share. This album was my dad's idea, not hers. She would feel no obligation to cooperate much. My dad probably has a few residual good feelings about my daughter, his granddaughter, but not so my mother. The confrontation between my mother and me that led to the final break was precipitated by something she did to my daughter. My mother has never been affectionate with her granddaughter....so any semblance of affection with my daughter likely evaporated in the feud.
My first reaction to this photo album was gratitude for my father's efforts. But as I thought about things, I started to lose any feeling of sentimentality as I realized what a slap in the face this was intended to be. His granting of this family history to my daughter is the same as his saying that I am dead and gone to him. Even with the present estrangement he could have shown some effort at conciliation by bequeathing the family history in its proper order by giving it to me. But, no, it is clear that I am like a dead relate to him. Believe me, I am very happy that my daughter has this little bit of history. I am only commenting on what the message is that my dad is sending to me by giving this to her.
Another thing is how this is proof that I will receive nothing when he dies. (Not that I wanted or expected anything. This was something my husband noted.) Everything will go to my sister including all family pictures. I will not have access to any of this when he is gone. He is making sure, before he dies, that something gets passed on to his only grandchild as a way of preserving the past for future generations. Another thing that lends itself to this interpretation is that he did not use this gift to his granddaughter to establish any request for continued contact with her. He is simply using her to 1) take a swipe at me 2) look like he is a good guy 3) preserve some part of himself for the future. He doesn't make any expression to his only grandchild that he misses her, that he would like to stay in touch with her, that he gives a flying crap about her. It is really all about him! He sees the danger that all memory of him and his bitch wife is going to vanish when they die.
While my father seems to value keeping a record of dead relatives, what is ironic in all this is how he and my mother are estranged from every living relative save one. My sister. And, who knows, maybe they are estranged by now too. I'm not in touch with my sister anymore so I wouldn't know.
My husband, daughter and I live a few houses down the street from my father's brother (my uncle, obviously). His daughter (my cousin), and her two sons live with him. My father and mother are estranged from all of them too. When my daughter showed this album to my uncle and cousin, my cousin noted how many of the copies of early documents, photos and newspaper clippings were ones collected by my dear uncle over the years. My mother insisted on borrowing these things a half dozen years ago so my dad could get copies. My father is still in possession of the originals and never even gave copies back to my uncle. Yes, indeed, my parents STOLE these things from my uncle. We have the proof in our album! Apparently, my parents felt entitled to own these things which is why they wouldn't consider it theft.
My daughter is still trying to decide whether or not she will acknowledge receipt of this...gift. I'll let ya know how it goes. By the way, even though my father may have intended to impress me with how dead I am to him, it does not excite any emotions in me but mild bemusement and general sense of being entertained. He can not hurt me. What he thinks of me is of no consequence whatsoever, so he is unable to hurt me or rile my feelings. I just sit here looking on in quiet amusement as I receive more evidence that my parents have no peace in their hearts. Our estrangement has brought me much peace and happiness. But for them, the estrangement leaves them with a constant reminder that their false reality is indeed false. My dad is trying to gain a little bit of peace by assuring himself that some semblance of memory of him will get passed on. I hope that works for him. I guess I do feel a little something else in the wake of this. A tinge of sadness. I really do feel sad for my dad that his wife was worth giving up relationships with the rest of his family. I feel sad when I imagine his bitterness and loneliness. But the sadness is moderated by awareness that he chose it all.

The Glastonbury festival is a five day little city (and massive music fest) built with tents, art, and mud. This temporary community is located near Pilton, Somerset, in England. These gatherings are opportunities to live in a place created outside of the normal everyday routines like crosswalks and scheduled lunch breaks. Collective thoughts are shared here. This space is where we could have a chance to celebrate and create new ideas for the world outside, and of course, listen to some great music.
Sleeping close together with no keys in our pockets for locked doors that separate us Glastonbury becomes your home for a few days and the music and people love drastically changes the way you live.
Sitting under handmade stars and waiting for new friends Here there is not a "no loitering" sign in sight. No purpose is your only purpose.
*It is like finding that perfect little town. * It's a spontaneous little city where people gather for one goal. The music drives solidarity.

Little lights guide the way while your favourite songs play in the distance. There's nothing closer to a perfect moment.
The time to see every sunset and sunrise Regular days have us on the go with no time to stop and enjoy the things nature offers us. A soul soothing sunset is what we all need.

*Be who you want to be outside of constraints *
Wear what you want, sing what you want, talk to new people, and share ideas. This is the time to experiment and change your perspectives.

Our muddy city
We're here rain or shine. In the hectic misery of everyday life, we might have the urge to clean off the mud in order to carry on with the day. This is not the case here, in the Glastonbury music fest, mud is part of building relationships and having fun.
Moving on from the construct of the rat race, Glastonbury is a temporary escape and experience outside of all that is considered "normal".

*Remember that it's a privilege to be here,but it's also an inspiration for a possible future *

New flags or no flags, it's the sign of brighter times. One day we could strip the corporate side of the music festival and break down the borders to let it flood into the outside world.

Rex's interest in anthropology, combined with his aboriginal ancestry, leads him to search for clues about his heritage in the wilderness. Believing his deceased grandmother's spirit resides inside of an ancient tree known as Gran Yan, he takes the opportunity before the camping season gets underway to spend time sleeping underneath the tree. When he sleeps in this fashion, Rex is able to communicate with his grandmother and have the history of his people relayed to him. This time, Rex learns about the Booran clan and the peculiar genius of Mullawanda, a future elder fascinated by the potential for flight. Following the history of the clan for generations and its interactions with other tribes of the area, Rex (and the reader) will learn about the lifestyles and mysteries of these intriguing people.
Immediately upon starting this book, the reader will be blown away by the sheer amount of love and detail that goes into capturing the lives of these aboriginal Australian tribes. The author has gone to great lengths to be as accurate as possible while also telling a complete story and having to fill in historical and linguistic gaps where no information exists. The finished product will fascinate with its history and information and delight with the imaginative dialogue and events of days long past. At the end of the book is a glossary of aboriginal terms and a genealogical listing of the characters of the book, their tribes, and their roles within said tribes. Now two books in, the Dreamtime Mysteries series will captivate its readers and give them a greater perspective on the varying cultures and development of human history.

Jim Cook, founder of J. Cook Financial in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, once attended a talk given by a professional fisherman. In the Q&A session that followed the speech, someone asked the fisherman about fishing lure.
"He replied that some lures are meant to catch fish, while others are meant to catch fisherman," Cook said.
Cook remembered those words when it came time to pick out technology platforms for his firm. Many "flashy products" exist in the world of financial advisory software and solutions, he said, and advisors should take the time to carefully go through them in order to narrow down what exactly makes sense and would be a good investment for their particular business.
For Cook, eMoney's suite of products seemed the right fit. He places a premium on robust data, particularly as it pertains to assessing clients' risk tolerance ("there are statistical variances in peoples' risk tolerance that are very specific," he said), and he wanted a system that would integrate well with eMoney.
He found what he was looking for in RiXtrema, a portfolio crash-testing company that helps advisors discuss risk with clients. Cook was referred to RiXtrema by FinaMetrica and very quickly knew he'd found a powerful tool that could work in all kinds of environments to detect a client's core psychology in order to assess his or her exact tolerance for risk.
"The challenge with assessing risk tolerance with technology is that people tend to look at it as a replacement for the human in some fashion," Cook said, "but technology is new; humans aren't. There is a huge emotional facet to the brain that you can't just go in and change and assign a number to risk tolerance. Human psychology is important and I believe this is an area in which we'll be seeing a lot of product development and innovation in the future."
Using Tech to Advise Millennials
As an advisor, client psychology and behavior is also important to Cook as it pertains to communication. He looks to leverage the power of technology in different ways to better communicate with his clients, almost all of whom are millennials, born into and raised with technology.
Cook himself is part of that generation – his motto is "Plan the Cool Way" — which puts him at an advantage compared to other advisors. He's comfortable, for example, with sending out video recordings to his clients, and he uses an app that clients can download to their phones to get notifications and communicate with him while on the go.
(Related: Thinking Millennial: How to Woo the Largest Generation)
"When clients have a messaging center right there in their hands, much of what used to have a lot of up-front costs and hurdles can be instantly accessed to minimize costs," he said. "We have great tools on our hands to automate contact initially and after and that gives us a lot of leverage."
Video, in particular, is a technology that Cook believes many advisors are missing out on. He uses it in a variety of ways, including sending private birthday greetings via video to his clients. He intends to create packaged video content to embed on his website, such as recordings about financial market conditions.
"By 2018, two-thirds of projected mobile device use will be only for video," Cook said. "And all an advisor really needs to create videos is a tablet on a tripod."
But even if videos and mobile interfacing are the ways in which his generation communicates, Cook's emphasis on human psychology means he's also well aware of the importance of face-to-face communication. The difference, though, when targeting the younger demographic, lies in the delivery of a particular message; the way in which that face-to-face communication is carried out.
"I don't bug my clients for referrals. I just tell them that I like to meet new people, so if we do a lunch with a prospective client, we talk about everything but financial stuff," he said. "Even if they check me out on the internet, the generation I am working with wants to see me as a real person; they want to engage with me as a real person, so that's how I engage with them."
He extends that rationale to his broader world as well.
"My client events are not about 'come on over and meet a guy who sells variable annuities,' but rather 'come on over and meet a guy who makes wine and who happens to sell variable annuities," he said.

Correction: This article has been updated to clarify that Cook uses a third-party app to communicate with clients, not one he created himself.

My wonderful associates, Allie and Kaitlin, were in the studio on Friday wrapping these up, while I was laying in bed trying to work. Really, I would just check emails every hour or so, when I could pick my head up off the pillow. Anyway, I love Teri's colors and I think the pocket came out really great. These are onnthe way to Teri right now. Hope she likes them just as much as we do!

Eating Right: For Your Teeth AND For Your Waistline!
Summer time is upon us! For many of us, it's the season of panicked trips to the gym and fad diets prior to hitting the beach. For most, however, it's too little, too late. While it's certainly possible to quickly shed weight before a deadline, such an approach isn't sustainable. This usually results in a cycle of "sudden weight loss, sudden weight gain" that happens time and again. A far more effective (and healthy) approach is to adopt a lifestyle of nutritious and healthful eating – not just prior to beach season, but all year long. A common conversation I have with my patients centers around this topic of nutrition, which is crucial not only to total body health, but also to oral health. Not surprisingly, as a dentist, most of my focus when discussing nutrition is on processed sugar, which harms our teeth and which our bodies struggle mightily to metabolize, resulting in inflammation that contributes to myriad autoimmune disease states like Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, and lupus. My family and I choose to follow a low-carbohydrate lifestyle, which involves eliminating most breads and pastas, but emphasizing proteins and healthy fats. A major hurdle in this approach is food preparation. One must be committed to cooking more than the average person to succeed in the whole-food lifestyle, since most readily-available restaurant food doesn't fall into this category. While avoiding sugar is a phenomenal (albeit obvious) starting point in the journey toward better nutrition, eating the RIGHT foods is just as critical as saying no to the WRONG foods. Here's a quick list of foods I often recommend to my patients to promote excellent oral and overall health:

Ava was very excited, not so much about everything being green, but more about the fact that there were sprinkles!
It's pretty hard to impress this tough crowd. "Why are we doing this? & Won't this stain my clothes?" Oh well, they obviously didn't have a problem with the taste. Both boys had three cinnamon rolls a piece!

Investment protection and arbitration for EU investors in Vietnam is expected to be settled in compliance with international rules as well as legal regulations on both sides on the back of the EU-Vietnam Investment Protection Agreement.
|Both deals will improve EU investors' appetite for investments in Vietnam, Photo: Le Toan
Minister of Planning and Investment Nguyen Chi Dung signed the EU-Vietnam Investment Protection Agreement (EVIPA) with the EU on June 30, which is expected to contribute positively to the construction of a transparent legal and investment environment for both sides.
The EVIPA includes commitments to equal treatment and safe and adequate protection for each other's investments and investors, modern rules on investment protection enforceable through the new Investment Court System, and ensures that the rights of the governments on both sides to regulate in the interest of their citizens are preserved. It will replace the bilateral investment agreements that 21 EU member states currently have with Vietnam, putting in place new legal guarantees preventing conflicts of interest and increasing transparency.
The two sides also commit to free flows of capital and profit in investment activities to overseas nations and to refrain from expropriating the assets of investors without compensation. They also pledge to compensate each other's investors for possible damages from wars and riots as they do with domestic ones, or those of a third nation.
Usually, when there is a dispute between an investor and a host country, investors can reach out to the World Bank's International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes or other similar tribunals permitted under their respective FTA for resolution.
In case of the signed EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA), both parties have agreed to set up a permanent court, referred to as the "Tribunal" to handle such issues. This will not only protect investors and their investments but also protect a country's right to oversee the implementation of public policies. In addition, the court system will be an independent dispute resolution system.
"The signing of FTAs, including the EVFTA, puts pressures on the requirement of sustainable development and deep global integration. To deal with the existing concerns, the Vietnamese government is determined to make reforms and comprehensively restructure the economy," Minister Dung noted.
As "new generation" FTAs, the EVFTA and EVIPA will help EU investors to access the public procurement and service markets in Vietnam, while strengthening protection of EU investments in the country, thus helping Vietnam attract more investors from the EU and other foreign countries in the coming time. Experts have predicted that the FTAs will boost trade and investment, contributing 7-8 per cent to Vietnam's GDP by 2025.
Vietnam is the EU's second-largest trade partner in the ASEAN after Singapore, with trade in goods worth almost €49.3 billion ($56.15 billion) a year and over €3 billion ($3.42 billion) when it comes to services. While EU investment stocks in Vietnam remain modest, standing at €8.3 billion ($9.44 billion) in 2016, an increasing number of European companies are establishing presence in the country to set up a hub to serve the Mekong region.
The EVIPA and the EVFTA are said to be the most ambitious deals concluded between the EU and a middle income country. After being signed, the two deals will be submitted to the European Parliament (EP) for consent. The EVFTA is expected to be approved by the EP later this year or in early 2020. Meanwhile, it will take at least two years for the EVIPA to be ratified by the EP and member parliaments.
Investment protection and arbitration are among the biggest concerns of EU investors in Vietnam. The settlement of commercial disputes has so far not satisfied those involved, and EU businesses in Vietnam are understandably supporting the immediate signing of the EVIPA.
"The EVFTA and EVIPA will create an ecosystem to provide the best available treatment when investing in Vietnam. We will live a long and happy life. Vietnam is our home, and Asia Piaggio continues to develop our operations in Vietnam," stated Italian group Piaggio, which has two manufacturing plants in the country (one for engines and another for vehicles), as well as a research and development centre that is the first one in Asia among the group's six centres worldwide.

Maftoul with Roasted Harissa Rainbow Carrots
The weekend has also allowed me to d some slow cooking and make the most of the little light there was outside for photographs, but the reality is its been a dark weekend with lingering dark clouds, drippy rain and blustery winds. Today's hearty lunch was Lemon-Coriander Maftoul with Roasted Harissa Rainbow Carrots.
I picked up two bunches of rainbow carrots from a local greengrocers.
I wanted to make more of a feast of them, than just chop, grate or spiralize them for a coleslaw, so I roasted them whole in a harissa sauce and served it with Zaytoun Palestenian Maftoul. Maftoul is made from sun-dried bulgar wheat and hand rolled into tiny chewy balls. The magic of maftoul is that it absorbs flavours wonderfully so I coated it in lemony coriander goodness.
Roasted Harissa Rainbow Carrots
Serves 4
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1 teaspoon coriander powder
Salt to taste
75ml olive oil
50ml agave syrup
1 tablespoon harissa paste
12 medium Rainbow Carrots, peeled and washed
Whisk all the ingredients (except for the carrots) together in a wide baking tray, then put in the carrots and coat well.
Roast in the oven for 30 minutes or until a knife pieces through it easily.
Adapted from Bon Appetit
For the Lemon Corainder Maftoul
Serves 4
Cook 250g Zaytoun maftoul according to packet instructions
1 x 400g tinned chickpeas, drained and simmered till warmed through. Drain and set aside
Packet of fresh Coriander
Juice from 1/2 lemon
2 tablespoons olive oil
Blitz all the ingredients to a sauce then stir into cooked maftoul, along with the chickpeas.
Set aside until ready to serve.

I agree, a very dull weekend, but hey brightly coloured food will always make us feel better. Lovely recipe :-)ReplyDelete
Such a colourful looking dish. I wish I could get such lovely rainbow carrots. I've never heard of Maftoul before and I love learning about new foods and trying them too. Sounds absolutely delicious. Thanks for entering AlphaBakes.ReplyDelete
Looks like a lovely recipe for the season, I'm so into rainbow carrots right now. Your weekend also sounds very nice.ReplyDelete
I was lucky enough to find rainbow carrots on the market last week, and I roasted in coconut oil, origin and garlic…mmmmm! We discovered maftoul last year, and enjoy it very much but have only ever coked it in stock - your recipe sounds lovely, so I think we'll try that too! I'm watching the carbs at the moment so my grainy/ricey intake is reduced, but once in a while I think won't hurt! LxxReplyDelete
Hi Shaheen, Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe of Palestinian couscous with chickpeas and carrots with MLLA for november 2015.ReplyDeleteReplies
I picked a bunch of rainbow carrots from my garden this week (I had totally forgotten they were rainbow carrots, I was expecting all orange, haha!). I want to do something special with them, and I'm thinking that roasting them like this will be perfect, so I can still see the colours after they have been cooked (normally carrots end up grated and "hidden" so my kids don't pick them out, haha!).ReplyDelete
I haven't had a lazy weekend in ages, but it looks like I just may get one this weekend (woohoo!). Thanks so much for sharing this gorgeous looking recipe at Healthy Vegan Fridays - it's being featured this week!ReplyDelete
I'm pinning & sharing. Thanks and have a great week!

Therefore, Tremulous 2 might have the future (or might not, since it isn't developed by a corporations, depends on what Global Government will decide), but Unvarnished doesn't.
desired price is around 10 - 20€.
Are there still plans to offer a Special Edition of sorts at launch?
Wow, I was expecting somewhere closer to 25-30.
As it's already been pointed out, the engine is at fault here. It's no mere 'modding through text editor'.
Isn't better to make that map directly in UE?
