"I found the house I was looking for two days after Christmas and my realtor referred me to Gayle at 1st Alliance to get started with my financing. I left a message for Gayle that day, and didn't expect to hear back until after the holidays, but she called me back almost immediately and got the loan process underway to the point that I was able to make an offer by New Year's Eve. From that point through closing, both Gayle and Stacy were extremely responsive and proactively communicative, and simply made the entire process smooth and painless. In the end I was able to get into the house I wanted at both an interest rate and mortgage payment well below what I was expecting; even lower than the monthly rent I had been paying for a much smaller house over the past year. The icing on the cake was Gayle's congratulatory call after the closing. I was pleasantly surprised with the swift, quality service and personal touch I received from 1st Alliance, and I am completely satisfied with the outcome."
– Bob
"1st Alliance Mortgage in College Station is simply the BEST, and Jennifer Wolf is a miracle worker. If not for her, we would not have survived the process of obtaining a mortgage. Purchasing a home can seem overwhelming at times, but Jennifer and her staff's professionalism was reassuring and comforting from the beginning to the end of the process. At every turn, Jennifer was right there with my family, guiding us in the right directions. If you are looking for a home loan, your first call should be to 1st Alliance Mortgage in College Station. Again, thank you Jennifer (and all the employees at 1st Alliance) for helping us purchase our dream home!"

"My husband and I worked with Jill Gallagher and the 1st Alliance Team on our first home purchase this past month. She was very clear and helpful about everything we needed to get together before our first meeting and that made it so easy from day one. She worked with what we had to put together the very best deal for our situation…including a great interest rate and super quick closing! Jill was always immediately available via email and cell phone whenever we had questions. She is straightforward and honest and made what I always assumed to be a very stressful and intimidating process, instead an easy, exciting and fun one! Do not hesitate to contact 1st Alliance for your next home purchase…you will not regret it!"
– Carrie
"Over the years, I have worked with several mortgage companies and Jennifer Wolf and 1st Alliance Mortgage are without a doubt one of the best. Jennifer was very attentive to my needs as a customer and even with several hour time differences she took the extra care to always keep me informed of the closing process. Even though there was some frustrating lender extensions and delays, as Jennifer would speak to me – she just seemed to make it all right by the time we hung up the phone. I highly recommend Jennifer Wolf!"
– Carrie C.
"We worked with Jennifer Wolf and she went above and beyond even with many hiccups we uncovered throughout the process. Jennifer was amazing at getting it all accomplished and finalized in time for closing. We will always recommend Jennifer to friends and family and will also use her for future purchase."
– Lindsey
"My husband and I have used 1st Alliance for two home purchases. Jennifer Wolf made the whole process as stress free as possible. She took the time to make sure we knew all of our options when it came to deciding on what type of mortgage we wanted to use and answered any questions we had along the way. Jennifer invested time with us by teaching us about credit score and what impacts a credit score. It was extremely valuable information. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, she is one of the nicest people to work with. I recommend Jennifer and the whole team at 1st Alliance to anyone looking at purchasing a home."
– Michelle
"I worked with all the staff at 1st Alliance Mortgage LLC in College Station and they were all very knowledgeable and helpful in getting all our documents ready to make our loan as smooth and possible. They were always available for questions or concerns to solve our problems very prompt. Thank You for helping us get our beautiful home!"
– Connie
"Jennifer was amazing to work with and so helpful throughout the buying process! We were not the easiest clients to get a loan for but she was able to help us get one when others couldn't. We are so grateful and will definitely be going through 1st Alliance again for our next home."
– Meagan.
"As a new resident of Bryan, Texas and wishing to buy a home, I was recommended to see Jennifer Wolf. She was so helpful and she went out of her way to find us a very good loan. She kept us informed during the whole process. I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a mortgage loan."
"Over the years, my wife and I have used 1st Alliance Mortgage for three home purchases and two refinance transactions. In every case, they were extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. They expertly guided us through the complicated mortgage process and kept us informed every step of the way. Perhaps most importantly, they fought hard to get us the best interest rate and terms available. They have been a real pleasure to deal with and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a new mortgage or refinance."
– Tony
"Our first encounter with Gayle was a couple years ago as she came to us at the recommendation from a friend who is a VP at a local bank in Brenham. From the first time we spoke to the millionth time she has always been very professional, knowledgeable, and available for all my questions. We built a trusting relationship and I felt very comfortable with speaking with her. I always felt reassured that we were making the right decisions. Additionally, I knew I could always contact her anytime and she would respond very quickly. Even when things seemed tough with the process of refinancing and things became very daunting, Gayle never made light of it or made excuses for whatever the case may have been. She was upfront and truthful. We knew our cases would be handled appropriately and as quickly as possible. I have recommended Gayle to several of my friends because she has earned our respect and our business from here on out. I consider her a valuable reference and resource!
Thank you for allowing me to express our thanks and appreciate to Gayle."
– Priscilla and Michael
"Jennifer Wolf of 1st Alliance Mortgage was referred to us when we started investing in rental properties in the Bryan/College Station, Texas area. We have many years of experience in investment properties and have been through the mortgage loan process countless times. We have worked with Jennifer on several mortgage loans.
There is something very unique and special about Jennifer's combination of strengths. She hits all the bases. She is extremely smart, competent, experienced and professional. Jennifer is committed to her clients and provides a very high level of customer service. She is hard working, tenacious, proactive, consistent and devoted to getting the job done and getting it done right. She is also honest, ethical and trustworthy. She quickly grasps complex financial issues and offers well-thought-out solutions. We have recommended her to others on multiple occasions without any hesitation whatsoever.
She is able to identify factors that may impact her clients and effectively communicates and interfaces between her clients, mortgage lenders, title companies and real estate professionals. She stays the course and delivers for her clients. We consider it a privilege and a pleasure to do business with her."
"Gayle was great to work with from start to finish. She clearly explained every detail and answered every question we had in a timely fashion. She continues to answer questions we have to this day, 8 months after closing. We will use her again and we tell everybody we know to use her if they're in the market to buy or refinance."

Jackie Evancho
It was Jackie Evancho's love of the film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Weber's The Phantom of the Opera that stirred her passion for singing and posting videos to YouTube. Not long after gaining notoriety for those videos, Jackie earned the opportunity to perform on America's Got Talent leaving audiences and judges astonished that such a perfect, beautiful, soprano voice could come from a 10-year-old girl. And the rest, as they say, is history. The young soprano from Pittsburgh with the stunning voice won runner-up and launched her music career, signing with Columbia Records, shortly thereafter.
Since her appearance on the show, Jackie has been able to break through being typecast as a "reality show singer" and has established herself as a legitimate force within the classical crossover genre. In the short time since gaining fame, Jackie's unique, gorgeous, soprano voice has won her millions of fans and her recordings have dominated the music and DVD charts.
The talented 10-year-old girl who stole America's hearts is now a 16-year-old with a driver's license. In the past year, she's released new music including three covers: "Writings On The Wall," "Safe And Sound," "Coming Home," as well as a new original song written especially for her, "Apocalypse". While still recording some songs in her beautiful soprano voice, she has also learned how to use her voice in a more "pop" way. Jackie is currently writing her own songs and recording them for release later this year with a new album. She plans to include these new songs as well as her crossover music in her upcoming tour that will launch in the fall of 2016.
Jackie's last studio release, Awakening was her third studio album and like her other albums before, Awakening entered the Billboard Classical Chart at number one. She toured to promote the album through 2015. Awakening finished 2015 at the number 3 spot on Billboards Year end Classical Chart and Jackie was number 5 on Billboard's classical album artists chart. Just Jared Jr. included Jackie on their Top 25 music acts of 2015. And in 2015, Jackie released her rendition of "Safe and Sound" from her favorite film, The Hunger Games to rave reviews. Also, in 2015, Jackie performed at her highest profile event to date: A performance for the Pope when he visited the U.S. in November 2015. Her rendition of "When you Wish upon a Star" continues to be a YouTube highlight.
Since the age of 10, Jackie has garnered the support of legendary music producers like David Foster and filmmakers such as Robert Redford. Billboard Magazine named Jackie to their list of music movers-and-shakers under the age of 21 in 2011 and again in 2012, because the soprano's "spellbinding, operatic vocals possess a power and poignancy that often moves listeners multiple times her age to tears."
Jackie's debut EP O Holy Night was released in November 2010 and became the year's #1 best-selling debut recording with sales exceeding 1 million copies and earned her a platinum certification. Her U.S. shows are also sell-outs and have been taped for PBS for the Great Performances series becoming some of their most broadcast programs of the year and used extensively during pledge drives.

How do you avoid pellet drop when shooting targets? You decrease the pellet size and increase the pellet speed. This helps to decrease wind drag and it helped to overcome gravity. If that isn't enough, you can add a choked barrel to help increase your accuracy. With a built-in shroud to quite things down and a 10 shot capacity. The .177 caliber Benjamin Marauder PCP Air Rifle is the perfect target shooter for the long rifle person. It uses PCP for it's charge and it's adjustable between 2,500 and 3,000 PSI. The Marauder has a rubber butt plate attached to the ambidextrous synthetic stock. With it's light wight of 6 pounds, you can spend all day shooting this rifle without any fatigue.
10-shot repeater with auto-indexing feature (.25 cal is an 8-shot repeater)
*Use only 2-piece scope mounts.
As the caliber increases, the gun becomes somewhat louder. The .177 cal. is the quietest, .22 cal. is a bit louder and .25 cal. is louder still. *The owner's manual states you can fill the gun with air or CO2, but that is incorrect. Please fill your gun with high-pressure air only.

Okay, it's finally confirmed. Grand Theft Auto V will be released for the PC "this Fall" according to an official trailer released by Rockstar. All of those rumours and whispers can come to an end. We're getting it on PC after all.
The trailer is a fairly minimal affair, showing shots from around Grand Theft Auto V's open world environment. But the important part comes at the end, where "PC" pops up alongside the more recent consoles as a release platform. Incidentally, the footage comes from the PS4 version.
Anyhow, come the Autumn we'll be driving, gunning and … err … open world missioning it up with the rest of them. No word yet about specific PC graphics details or anything of that nature. Hopefully all that lovely PC-specific stuff will be talked about by Rockstar in the near future.
For now have a watch of the confirmation trailer, below.

It seems like every e-mail I receive these days from a Democratic Senate candidate or Senator up for re-election this cycle includes a warning that the infamous Koch brothers will do anything, no matter the cost, to take over the US Senate - and with it, our country. Their fear is not without merit, for if we let the lunatics take over the Senate - as they already have in the Tea Party-controlled House - all will truly be lost. A change of only six Democratic Senate seats to Republicans would make that gruesome reality come true, and would encourage the Kochs and their ilk to engage in further mayhem in the 2016 election in order to elect a Conservative as President.
Millions of dollars are flooding into Senate races across the country from the Kochs and other wealthy right-wingers in order to influence these elections and continue to hold our country hostage. On the plus side, many of these Democratic campaigns are also raising more money than expected, and several are even beginning to move ahead of their Republican opponents in the polls. One sterling example is Alison Lundergan Grimes, who is challenging "Senator Gridlock" Mitch McConnell in Kentucky and is now polling at 49% to McConnell's 46%, according to an e-mail I received recently from Emily's List. Bill Clinton has just announced a second trip to Kentucky in two weeks to campaign with Alison, so clearly the Dems see a winner here. This is on track to become the most expensive Senate race ever, as Mitch's billionaire friends are dumping huge amounts of money into Kentucky to pay for ads smearing Mrs. Grimes. Even so, she has still managed to lead McConnell in fundraising in two of the last three quarters.
Other key Democratic Senate races are also raking in money, meeting and even surpassing their monthly campaign finance goals. They are doing it mainly with small donations from thousands of grassroots supporters, enabling them to get their message out and combat the Republican and Conservative PAC-funded attacks being waged against them in their states. The key players in many of these assaults are the Koch brothers - Charles and David - who have now obtained single-name celebrity status in the national political landscape. We know they are multi-billionaires - indeed, they are tied for sixth among the richest people in the world - and that Koch Industries is the second largest privately held company in the US. But what more do we really know about them, their wealth and the extent of their political activities? And just how have they each acquired their respective $40+ billion in net worth?
It is, quite frankly, astonishing to me that they have time to keep building their corporate empire, since so much of their energy and time goes into buying influence and affecting policy in DC and beyond. In this election year alone, they have committed to spending upwards of $290 million to install their lackeys in public office across the country, and their slash-and-burn campaigns against Democrats are spreading and intensifying as the days dwindle before the 2014 election.
But the Kochs aren't just an election year phenomena, as they also provide hefty funding to right-wing think tanks like the Cato Institute and The Heritage Foundation, as well as their own "social welfare" organizations like Americans for Prosperity, Freedom Partners and American Encore. They are also big players and funders of the right-wing American Legislative Exchange Council ("ALEC"), which just had its annual meeting on July 30th in Dallas. Its agenda there, according to Rebecca Wilce in PR Watch, was to consider legislation that would, among other things, severely limit access to Medicaid, expand charter schools, expand US exports of "natural" gas obtained through fracking - as well as making it easier to frack - and undermine the EPA's Clean Air and Clean Water Regulations. ALEC has also been having a profound effect in several states nationwide, creating so-called "business-friendly" policies that destroy workers' rights and throttle unions.
Another angle being played by the Kochs is through the donations they are spreading around to numerous universities throughout the country, mainly in an effort to spread the Conservative message among our young people through "business" courses that tout their free market ideology and advocate for such things as lower taxes for the rich, vouchers for Medicare and cutting our other safety nets like Social Security and Medicaid - all in the name of what they view as good business practices and, certainly, their desired goal of a severely decreased role for our government in regulating corporate America.
And, leaving no stone unturned, the Kochs also fund cultural centers like New York City's Lincoln Center and Metropolitan Museum of Art, as well as serving as board members of PBS in both New York and Boston, where they have contributed funding to PBS programs like Nova. It should also be noted that their money and clout likely helped keep an unflattering documentary about them from being aired on PBS.
Lee Fang, writing in The Nation on March 7th, noted that the Kochs spent twice as much in the 2012 elections as the top ten unions combined, with unions spending a total of $153,473,251, while the Kochs' contributions amounted to a whopping $412,670.666 - $4.9 million through their PAC's, and roughly $407 million through undisclosed "dark money" contributions. Fang goes on to chronicle the Kochs' contributions to the GOP since 1995-96, much of it through their shell company, Triad Management, which, as a corporate entity, was not required to report its donations, while unions - which are highly regulated by the FEC and Labor Department - must report all of theirs. Are there any clearer reasons for amending the Constitution to overturn the Supreme Court's terrible Citizens United and McCutcheon decisions, and remove special interest money from our politics and go to public funding of campaigns?
So just what are the sources of this great wealth the Kochs use to fund their nefarious deeds? Koch-owned companies are located in roughly sixty countries and have more than 100,000 employees, with about 60,000 of them in the US. Some of their products include transportation fuels, building and consumer products, electronic connectors, fibers, fertilizers, and pollution filtration and control equipment. They are also big in oil refining, with large holdings in Texas in particular, where the newly opened leg of the Keystone XL pipeline is surely already bringing more millions to their coffers.
Some other key holdings of the Kochs include:
Flint Hills Resources - Through its subsidiaries, Flint Hills operates refineries in Minnesota and Texas, with a combined crude oil processing capacity of more than 600,000 barrels per day. The company also produces and markets petrochemicals, ethanol, biodiesel and asphalt, and owns a 50% interest in a lubricant base oil facility in Louisiana.
Georgia-Pacific - Based in Atlanta, GP and its subsidiaries are among the leading manufacturers of consumer products, packaging, paper, cellulose and chemicals. They are also a leading supplier of do-it-yourself warehouse retailers like Home Depot with their wide variety of building products. Some of their familiar name brands in paper products are Brawny Paper Towels, Quilted Northern and Soft and Gentle toilet paper, and Vanity Fair paper napkins.
Invista - This company and its subsidiaries are among the world's largest integrated producers of chemical intermediates, polymers and fibers. Their technologies for creating mylar, spandex and polyester are used to produce clothing, carpets and many other everyday products.
Molex - Based in Lisle, Illinois, Molex is a global manufacturer of electronic, electrical and fiber interconnection systems. It offers about 100,000 products to a number of markets, including mobile devices, info-tech, consumer electronics, automotive, telecommunications, industrial, medical, military and aerospace. The company operates 45 manufacturing locations in 17 countries.
Koch Pipeline Company, L.P. - Koch Pipeline owns or operates more than 4,000 miles of pipeline that transports crude oil, refined petroleum products, ethanol, natural gas liquids and chemicals. They also have four other companies and numerous other subsidiaries that market and distribute 13 million tons of fertilizer products annually.
Koch Chemical Technology Group - This is a collection of Koch companies that specialize in manufacturing pollution control equipment, no doubt to combat the messes they create with their worldwide activities in extracting fossil fuels through traditional drilling and fracking - hey, if you know you're going to make a problem, it makes sense to have a solution available for sale, too, no?
The Matador Cattle Company - This corporation operates three huge ranches in Montana, Texas and Kansas, with a total of 440,000 acres and 12,000 head of cattle on their books.
These corporations and the Kochs' other holdings bring in an annual revenue of around $115 billion - which sounds low to me, frankly. And one has to wonder how much they are paying in taxes, what with all the breaks they surely get in this business friendly tax climate?
With so much money tied up in the fossil fuel business, it makes sense that the Kochs are also the largest financiers of climate science denial. According to Polluter Watch, Koch Industries has spent millions paying lobbyists to fight climate and energy legislation, and have worked in conjunction with ALEC's Energy and Environment Task Force to distribute anti-environmental bills across the county that delay policy solutions to climate change and prevent the EPA from regulating coal pollution and other dirty fuel industries. In 2013, the Kochs were even inducted into Corporate Accountability International's Corporate Hall of Shame for spending $50 million to fund climate change denial and influencing the Supreme Court decision to allow unlimited corporate dollars to flow into federal elections.
A positive note here is that the world is beginning to see the Kochs for who they really are and reject their tarnished brand, making them among the most hated men on the planet - which they are destroying, by the way, with their fossil fuel products that we continue to buy, in turn giving them the resources to continue to buy off our elected officials. As if in the Kochs' honor, on September 21st in New York City, the People's Climate March will bring thousands out for the largest public action to date on this issue in our country. This march will occur at the same time that world leaders are coming to the UN for a summit on the climate crisis. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is urging governments to support an ambitious global agreement to dramatically reduce global warming-causing pollution. We will be watching this historic gathering and will eagerly anticipate the real solutions it delivers for a better, healthier and more just world. The People get it, and are mobilizing on many fronts to combat the lies and destructive actions of the Kochs and their right-wing allies. Our time has come.

First of all – how do you like my plate?? I painted it myself! It's the only thing I've ever done in those pottery painting places that I really liked! Those were the days when my daughter was young and on a rainy holiday it was one of the few indoor pastimes we both enjoyed. I love these napkins too – a dear English friend gave them to me thinking they looked retro Americana, (as you know I'm American but live in the UK) – and they do! I love them!
Anyway, another friend of mine posted a high carb, bake mix based "Impossible" coconut pie on FB. It looked so good I just had to have a go at making it without grains, dairy or sugar. Here is the result. Although the "impossible" bit, the self-forming crust ended up on the top, rather than the bottom of this custardy pie, it came out absolutely yummy and SO easy. My husband loved it too – AND as a bonus, it is actually pretty low in calories for a pie. No messing about with 1/10 or 1/8 portions. Let's be real. In MY world a piece of pie is 1/6 of the pie! And that is what I have calculated here. Well under 200 kcal a slice (183) and 1 net carb. Enjoy!
- 1 cup/70g (in a recipe), Desiccated Coconut
- ½ cup/50g, Ground Almonds (almond flour)
- 1 heaped Tbs (10gm), Coconut Flour
- ½cup/100g Swerve, Natvia, Truvia or Sukrin (or sweetener of choice to taste) Paleo use maple syrup or honey to taste - stats will change.
- 2 cups/450ml, Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 4 medium, Eggs
- 1 tsp, Vanilla Extract
- ¼ tsp, Salt
- Nutmeg
- Preheat oven to Gas Mark3, 160C, 325F. Grease an 8inch pie pan.
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend on high until thoroughly combined. Pour into pan, sprinkle surface with nutmeg and bake for approximately 50m-1hr or until the edges are slightly puffed and golden and a knife inserted in center comes clean. (Fan assisted ovens may be quicker - check at 40-45m).
- Cool completely and serve. Store in fridge.

Mobile Notary Signing Agents and Notary Public Search
Nationwide Mobile Notary Database
Need a Mobile Notary Signing Agent?
Oftentimes, there are many legal intricacies associated with mortgage applications and real estate paperwork. Because of this, many states require that all mortgage loan documents, real estate closing documents, and other documents affiliated with the purchasing and refinancing of a home be designated in the presence of a Mobile Notary Signing Agent (also known as a Mobile Notary, Traveling Notary, Notary Public, Certified Mobile Notary Signing Agent, or Loan Document Closing Agent). The Mobile Notary Signing Agent's primary function is to serve as an impartial witness to the signing of legal documents, ensuring that both the lending company and the individual(s) buying or refinancing the home can trust the validity of the legal documents. Mobile Notary Signing Agents typically handle the documents themselves, personally transporting them to each signing party before delivering them back to the Lending, Title, Escrow, or Signing Services Company.

The lovely Aphrodite tends to be an incredibly fast growing and healthy marijuana tap root plant, or clone when cultivated properly. This specific variety of cannabis gene is known to have an incredibly potent psychoactive effect. When cultivated in a hydroponic system indoors, Aphrodite gives a satisfying yield – fast along with Dank nugs and a high THC percentage — loaded with resin rich pistils. The genes used to produce this wonderful strain was of a sativa origin, so its flavor tends to lean towards the Jack Herer side of the spectrum.
As the Aphrodite automatic has a sativa genotype for its base gene structure, the flowers tend to be elongated, yet compact and sticky with resin. The Aphrodite automatic is known for having an incredibly high potent THC percentage, so a little goes a long way.
Auto flowering marijuana genetics tend to begin producing flowering at a much shorter height, independent of the photoperiods you're used to using to adjust the flower cycles. This trait makes the Aphrodite automatic strain an incredibly important resource for most hydroponic cultivators.
Another of the larger advantages to using an auto flower gene is that the accelerated finish time on the outdoor flower will sometimes save you mold throughout the entire crop due to rainfall. As well, this thick and sturdy strain tends to produce a very short marijuana plant which will keep it well out of plain sight from those pesky flying eyes in the sky.

That said, the acceleration is more than adequate, you'll never want for a merge or overtaking a Prius slowing the left lane.
I use the paddle shifters for such occasions and the result is smile inducing. I run mine in Personal mode with mostly Sport settings, hard but quick steering.
Since it sounds as though you are contemplating the car, take one out for an extended test drive. And while I thought I would be just fine without the deluxe technology package, after going ahead with it I would highly recommend it.

But not as noticeable at highway speeds for me. You end up with a bit of a trade off. You get more power, but you add pounds over a Q50S Gaser. Mitch , I think andrew pretty much summed it all up. Today is my last day in a 3. I can say I definitely feel a power difference between it and my hybrid, but I will pay attention returning it today if I feel it as much at highway speeds as Andrew pointed out he doesn't think it's as noticeable then.
For me, the extra torque totally makes up for the weight gain. That's right where I would expect a stock Gas to be considering those numbers go back to the G37 sedans and coupes.

Debate: What is the future of higher education funding in Africa?
Our online debate was held on 28 July, questioning the future of education and funding in African universities. 2015 was an explosive year for South African higher education, with protests at colleges and campuses across the country. As the student-led #RhodesMustFall and #FeesMustFall movements gathered momentum, they sparked nationwide discussions on what 'equal access' to education means in an era of escalating fees, rising unemployment and sluggish social mobility — and on the state of social justice in South Africa today, 22 years after the end of apartheid.
2015 and 2016 have also seen protests and debates at universities across the continent on who will, and should, pay for higher education. Under the spotlight has been the question of how to make education accessible to millions of young students, in a continent with the fastest growing youth population in the world: 43 per cent of the population are under 15 years old. At the same time, Africa's universities and research institutes are tasked with producing independent, socially relevant research, within a global higher education sector increasingly shaped by privatisation, the commercialisation of research, and academic job insecurity.
In this online debate we brought together students, academics and higher education experts from across the continent discussed the next steps for higher education funding in Africa. The debate focused on: what the problems are; how to pay for higher education and research; the risks and opportunities of new funding channels; and how to ensure equal access while raising the cash to produce high quality, locally relevant research within a tough global higher education sector.

Soup Cooking Tips
Over the years, there has been a lot of soup prepared in the Mapleton's restaurant! Favourites include Corn Chowder, Split Pea with Ham and Lasagna soup.
Here are some tips to help you make your next batch of soup a success!
#1 – Chop everything evenly.
When you chop items, you want evenly sized pieces. This allows all of the items to cook uniformly. The only exception would be if you are including items that quick cookly as well as items that cook more slowly in the same pot.
For example, sweet potato and tomatoes cook more quickly so can be cut in larger chunks. Onions, potatoes and carrots take longer to cook so should be diced or chopped small.
#2 – Lots of different veggies? Simmer longer.
Variety is great, but if you are using many different vegetables it will take longer for their flavours to combine in your soup. In the Mapleton's restaurant kitchen, we let soups like these simmer longer. Crock pots work perfect for this making it easy to simmer a soup for 8-10 hours.
#3 – Soften onions separately – especially if using a crock pot.
Chop onions and then soften them in a pan with some oil or butter on low heat. (Be careful with butter as it can brown quickly.)
If a recipe calls for onions prep them first and get them simmering as your first step. While they are softening up you can continue to prep the rest of the recipe.
This tip is especially important if you are using a crock pot for your soup.
#4 – Use seasonings.
Most recipes will outline which seasonings to use. At the Mapleton's restaurant kitchen we sometimes get a little inventive.
One of our favourite go to's is herb d'provence. It goes with pretty much anything. (We create our own mix by drying herbs from the garden and mixing them together.)
If it is a tomato based soup, basil is always a good choice. For soups with mushrooms or onions try thyme.
#5 – Taste Often!
As mentioned previously, we sometimes like to get creative or are dealing with different tastes depending on the ingredients and time of year.
Taste test your soup creation often to monitor flavor. But no double dipping!
#6 – Start with a recipe.
Although we don't always do this, cook books and online recipes are great resources for ideas. They can be especially helpful when you are dealing with in season produce.
Pay attention to the main ingredients and adjust and substitute less important items as needed.
If you prefer the feel of a cookbook in your hand, don't forget your local library. This is a great way to check out different books. If you fall in love with one, then you can purchase it confidently.
#7 – Don't be too tough on yourself!
Not everything turns out, and sometimes you'll have to try again. (It even happens to us sometimes.) Cooking takes practice and soups are a great place to start.

Watch out! Daddy's got a new camera, again, and he needs to test it. The kids and even Lucky are scrambling because I've entered my new camera testing mode.
It's been a couple of months since I got my last camera, the Fujifilm XF1, so it's time for a new one, right? I still love the Fuji XF1, it is my daily carry around camera.
So, what did I get? The Nikon 1 J1, for rock bottom clearance price of $199, brand new. The J1 along with the V1 was Nikon's big entry into the mirrorless market. Things didn't go as well as Nikon liked. Originally released for an ambitious $650, over the last 2 years, the price steadily fell.
I was always intrigued by the Nikon 1 line but thought it was overpriced. Enthusiasts panned it because it has a smaller 1″ sensor. I wrote 2 years ago that Nikon has an uphill battle because it wasn't getting support from the Alpha camera nerds. Unfortunately for Nikon, my fears came true.
But now I get to use an interesting camera, at a low price. How does it compare to the Olympus Pens? How does it compare to the premium point and shoots? Actually, more than still photos, I got this camera for its video capabilities. The Nikon 1 is one of the first systems to have a hybrid contrast and phase detect focusing system. This allows really fast focusing stills and smoothly focusing video.
Believe it or not, with all the cameras I own, I still don't have one device that does great photos and video. While I don't expect the J1 to have that ultimate image quality, it should work great for casual snaps and casual video.
I'll let you know how it goes in a series of upcoming posts. Let the testing and the fun begin.
Update: Just when I thought the prices couldn't get lower… B&H Photo has some two lens J1 kits for $249. I bought my one lens kit for $199. Incredible.

LETTER: Animal shelter not meant to be long-term home
I continue to read with dismay the outrage expressed toward the Woodbridge police for finding a home for animals at the shelter. If the people protesting wanted to adopt the animals, why didn't they?
We have two shelter rescue dogs and, amazingly, adopted them the day we met them -- not months later.
These facilities are not meant as long-term homes for animals. Their goal is to place animals in loving, safe homes and it seems to me this is exactly what the Woodbridge authorities did.

In a war, the loser surrenders at the end. We always want to win and so we learn not to surrender. What if its only partly true; Isn't it really the case that only the losers surrender in the end? Taking refuge is the right way to begin.
Today is day 24 of #LivingDeeply.
In the 1970s, TV stations in the US used to carry an announcement, "It's 10pm, do you know where your children are?". It's a great question, because we really don't know much about anything. We just can't know everything.
— and we don't have the ability to act decisively.
If Julius Caesar, the most powerful man in the world, couldn't tell that his colleagues in the senate are going to kill him, then what chance do others have of knowing everything, understanding everything, and doing everything? No one can be omnipresent (everywhere), omniscient (all knowing), and omnipotent (all doing).
So how can we act in this world? We have to make assumptions, right? What assumptions do we carry about the world around us?
Let us narrow it down by asking two specific questions:
– what is the relationship of the Universe with respect to my interests?
Is the Universe fierce and jealous, all red in tooth and claw? Is the Universe more like a friend, lover or a parent…always looking out for my interests?
– what support can I expect from the forces of the Universe as I go about engaging in action?
Should I expect resistance or support?
There are two words for "surrender" in the Bhagavad Gita, प्रपद्यन्ते prapadyante and शरणम् sharanam.
The answer to the first question is, "As you are to Me, so I am to you". If you come as a friend, you will find the Universe a friendly place. If you come to steal, then expect fully to have your shirt stolen on the way back. Your attitude will directly be reflected back by this mirror-like existence. Give to get.
ये यथा मम प्रपद्यन्ते तमस तथैव भजामि अहम् |
(BG4:11 as they come to me, so do I cherish them; my path men walk, Partha, on every path)
(BG18:63 all duty abandoning to me, the sole refuge, come; I will liberate you from every sin, so not grieve)
Be a friend, take refuge, and go out into the world with confidence.

"You have a blank wall, and it's boring. Well, snap a photo of the wall, and any furniture that's there, and send it to me, along with whichever of my paintings that you think would be most inspirational for that space. I'll put it all together so you can see how it would really look and get an idea of the best size painting to really help the space pop," says Lucille Femine, a Nashville-based watercolor artist.
Femine, who is passionate about the arts and what they can do for people, wants to make the art-buying experience that much easier on her consumers. "Many people love art, but don't know exactly what it will do for the space. That's why I want to make it that much easier for them," says Femine.
Lucille Femine has been an artist since she was a young child, living in a mundane world looking for an outlet to break out of the monotony. She uses her artwork to uplift, inspire and transport people to a more exciting and beautiful way of life. "It's my dream that through the arts, anyone can lead a more fulfilling life, and I'd like to play a part in helping people to do that," she says.
"If anyone would like to send in a photo of a room of their house and the name of their favorite of my paintings, they can always get in touch with me on social media, at www.facebook.com/artbyfemine," she says.

From Road Dahl (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) comes another classic childhood story. The unlikely hero Matilda Wormwood is born to parents who prize their own ignorance and disdain books, learning, and any information they can't get from television. Despite her parents, Matilda somehow manages to emerge a genius. Maybe even a magical one. However, she and the rest of the school are under the tyrannical rule of a deliciously devious villain, principal Agatha Trunchbull.
Matilda The Musical embraces the fearful and terrifying moments of childhood with humor, hard-earned optimism, and astoundingly witty musical numbers. Songs like "Miracle," "Naughty," and "Revolting Children" will ring true to adults and belong in the survival kit of any child making their way through preadolescence and beyond.

World number one golfer Tiger Woods believes Rory McIlroy is close to sealing his first title win of the season.
Tiger Woods believes Rory McIlroy is slowly getting his golf game back on track and predicted on Tuesday that the former world number one would claim a breakthrough first victory of the year by the end of December.
McIlroy was on top of the world at the end of 2012, having won the orders of merit on both sides of the Atlantic, but he has had a turbulent season this year on and off the course.
The Northern Irishman changed his clubs in January, a switch that was criticised by several pundits. He is also in the middle of a bitter court dispute with his former management team and, according to media reports, has split from girlfriend Caroline Wozniacki.
I can definitely see him winning sometime this year because his game has come around
"He is playing better and swinging a lot better," 14-times major champion Woods said in an interview.
"You can see that some of the stuff he and his coach are working on are starting to come together.
"He's starting to put together a few good rounds, now he just has to make a few more putts. I can definitely see him winning sometime this year because his game has come around."
World number one Woods had a close-up view of McIlroy when he lost to the twice major winner in a lucrative head-to-head exhibition match on China's Hainan Island on Monday.
The two golfers are both based in Florida and the 37-year-old American said he and world number six McIlroy had formed an excellent relationship.
"Rory has become a good friend of mine over probably the past year, year and a half," explained Woods.
"It seems like every tournament we're paired together, we're also playing practice rounds together and we have really hit it off.
"He plays on both tours, U.S. and European, so we see each other at big events and when we do we try and play practice rounds whenever we can."
Record chaser
Woods has taken full advantage of the 24-year-old McIlroy's form slump, returning to the top of the world rankings with five victories this season.
None of his 2013 wins have come in the big four championships but he left little room for doubt that he still yearns to break the 18-major record of compatriot Jack Nicklaus.
I'm still hitting the ball plenty far but there's a next generation of kids out there that are taller, bigger, more athletic who absolutely annihilate it. The game has changed, a lot of guys are 6-foot-3 and above and hit the ball for miles
"It took him until he got to 46 to do it and this year I'll be 38 so there's plenty of time," said Woods.
"A lot of guys have won a lot of majors post 40.
"The great thing about staying fit is we're able to play at a high level for a long period of time so hopefully I can compete at this level for a very long period of time."
Woods said his game was still improving and he could now plot his way around courses better than before.
"I don't necessarily have the same whooping power I used to… but my understanding of how to play, how to manage my game around the golf course has got infinitely better," he said.
"I'm still hitting the ball plenty far but there's a next generation of kids out there that are taller, bigger, more athletic who absolutely annihilate it. The game has changed, a lot of guys are 6-foot-3 and above and hit the ball for miles.
"It's not too often you see shorter, smaller players who don't have power doing well. You've got to have power in our game now," said Woods.
The American is to miss the final World Golf Championship (WGC) event of the season in Shanghai this week but will compete in next week's Turkish Open.

British Billionaire Escapes Scandal To Pick Up New Superyacht In Valletta
Despite the recent scandal surrounding the sudden end to chain-store BHS, Lady Tina Green (the wife of the brand's chairman) has been spotted cruising around Malta on her €120 million superyacht.
The Mail Online reported that the power couple's lavish new ride, Lionheart, took four years to build, and is the third in a collection of superyachts owned by the Greens (which all sport similar, safari-themed names Lionchase and Lioness V).
Lady Green may be soaking up the rays in Malta, but back home things are a lot less sunny for the business moguls. With 11,000 jobs on the line and pensions put at risk, many have called for Sir Philip Green's knighthood to be revoked. The purchase of Lionsheart further fuels this outrage as claims arise that he invested more in the superyacht, than he did in trying to save the chain from shutting down.
In an ironic twist, the yacht in question has allowed the employment of a hefty number of individuals. The Mail Online reports that the Greens have their own dog walker, two chefs, a hairdresser, a florist, a masseur and an army of window cleaners working on board the Lionsheart.

St Peter's Brewery Alchohol Free Beer Point of Sale
Point of sale design for WITHOUT® alchohol free beer back bar display
Without® is a new Alcohol Free Beer from St Peter's Brewery. The brief was to create a point of sale back bar display for the launch of the new beer in 330ml bottles into pubs and restaurants.
We worked with our display designers to create an eye-catching display in the shape of a 'W'. The two outer bottles are placed at an angle to align with the 'W', inset into wood block and contained within a perspex frame printed with the branding. If height allows, 3 additional bottles can be placed on top for extra impact.
The displays are about to be delivered into the first pubs and are sure to attract the attention of willing customers looking for an alcohol free beer with a full-bodied flavour.

There is no shortage of games and game development in today's world but recently there was a special case in iOS apps. A small boy aged 14 created a app called Wheel-Ordeal and it was in the app store of Apple. The boy couldn't control his emotions and was filled with happiness. It was like dream come true for Aryan Mann, a school going kid from the Delhi public school, Noida. Many pro app developers yearn to get their app in the store but this kid has done exceptionally well to get a place in the store.
As most children love games at this age a lot of children will play all kind of games. But this child has a passion to make the games rather playing it. He has strong aim of becoming a game designer and working really hard to become one such person. Initially he was trying to target a lighter audience by building a game called Wheel-Ordeal, a racing game that tests one's reflexes in avoiding elements ahead like cars, cows and more. He was always interested in stuffs like photoshop, movie making, adding VFX and making websites and photography.
It took around 8 months to develop this game for Aryan and he has to concentrate his school work too. The Apple app store has very sophisticated criteria for selection of apps and need to meet to all those criteria to get selected. Wheel-Ordeal managed all the obstacles and app was successfully launched from November 26. His valiant effort finally paid off and currently he is working on his next app called the "Mayan doomsday", a game related to meteors. Android version of Wheel-Ordeal is also under process and he is concentrating about his career in game designing. He has plans to pursue his degree wither in MIT or the university of South California. His message to youngsters is that "go for your favorite technology and try to develop apps in that".

Mediation in Other Situations
Mediation can be used in any situation where people are upset with each other, where communication has broken down or where people don't understand each other.
You can mediate at school or at work; in your neighborhood or family; in your synagogue, church or mosque; or in a court case. You can mediate after an accident, or when a repair isn't done right, or when a debt hasn't been paid.
Mediation is simply an opportunity to sit down and talk things out with a mediator, someone who is trained to help people have potentially difficult conversations. Someone who is impartial, won't take sides, and will keep what you said confidential.
In mediation:
- You can be heard.
- You can ask questions, and hear their response.
- You can tell them what is important about this, from your point of view.
- You can listen.
- You can tell them how this situation has affected you.
Even in situations when people think mediation won't work, it often does.
Why does mediation work?
- People are curious. They want to ask questions. They want to see what will happen.
- People want to be heard.
- They want a say in what will happen.
- They want things resolved.
Child Welfare Cases
When a child has been removed from his or her family, the people involved can be part of a Child Welfare Mediation or a Family Team Meeting. A mediator, or facilitator, brings people together to talk about the situation, the strengths of the parent(s), the family's needs, and concerns about the family. They work together to develop a plan for the child that everyone can support.
Who is involved? Any of the following people can be involved: the parent(s), other family members, the foster parents, the DHS caseworker, attorneys for the parent(s) and child, other caseworkers with the parent(s) or child, perhaps therapist, minister/rabbi/imam, and friends or neighbors.
For more information, call Southwest Iowa Mediation Center at 712-310-2843.
Mediation in Civil Cases
You can mediate in any situation.
Many civil cases are mediated with the people who disagree in separate rooms, with the mediator going back and forth between them. The people do not talk directly with each other – the mediator goes back and forth, carrying messages. This is called a caucus or shuttle mediation.
However, maybe you have something you want to say to the other person. Maybe you have some questions for him or her. Maybe you would like to try and talk with them directly.
If you do want to talk with the other person/people in mediation, find a mediator who knows how to help people talk directly to each other.
Get an attorney who is supportive of this choice and who has been involved in this kind of mediation before.
When you are choosing an attorney or your mediator, be sure to ask them what kind of mediation they usually recommend so you know whether they will be able to provide you with the kind of process you want.
Read more about mediation in this web site.
For help finding a mediator, call Southwest Iowa Mediation Center at 712-310-2843.
Too often, there is tension between neighbors. Sometimes it escalates to hostility. Sometimes it affects the entire family or expands to include other neighbors, too. Whether it's a barking dog, a disputed property line, a fallen limb, or children who don't get along, difficulties between neighbors are common, unfortunately.
With a mediator, you can sit down, be heard, ask questions, and hear their perspective. You can tell them how the situation is affecting you and your family. You can see what you can do to resolve the difficulties and reduce the tension.
You may think, "If we were going to be able to talk it out, we would have done that already. Communication is worse than ever. Things seem to be getting worse. How will talking make any difference?"
Even if you think that, you may be surprised at what can happen in mediation.

Perry dings Obama on gay rights-foreign aid move
Rick Perry seizes on a daily headline about the Obama administration using federal aid to push for gay rights overseas by The Associated Press, saying, "Just when you thought Barack Obama couldn't get any more out of touch with America's values. ... This administration's war on traditional American values must stop."
He added, "I have proposed a foreign aid budget that starts at zero. From that zero baseline, we will consider aid requests based solely on America's national security interests. Promoting special rights for gays in foreign countries is not in America's interests and not worth a dime of taxpayers' money. But there is a troubling trend here beyond the national security nonsense inherent in this silly idea. This is just the most recent example of an administration at war with people of faith in this country. Investing tax dollars promoting a lifestyle many Americas of faith find so deeply objectionable is wrong.
"President Obama has again mistaken America's tolerance for different lifestyles with an endorsement of those lifestyles. I will not make that mistake."
The statement comes at a time when Perry is making a push for evangelical voters in Iowa, who remain scattered in supporting a string of different GOP candidates, and whose consolidated support he needs to move up in the polls.

A building from the seventies doomed to destruction.
The capital, Paris, the 13th arrondissement, on the 5 Fulton Street.
Artists from around the world to decorate during the waiting phase.
This was the pitch for that very original artistic experience.
It was more or less possible to visit the place throughout the month of October, before its destruction, ultimately, in the month of April.
Maybe we could have kept this up for a little longer, one summer more, but the pressure on land causing its destruction, this discussion is now useless.
A good way to visit, if you could not physically get there: websites.
- Firstly this site Paris.fr which traces the outline of the project, until its destruction in video. Especially links to works / graffiti art, the most interesting, indeed, and the history of the building.
- Then Itinérance, la Galerie which offers a summary with pictures of this temporary exhibition. And yet here, gathering pictures of all the people who send them.
- A virtual tour / 360 ° is available on this site, from the cellars to the top floor, with the numbered apartments, not forgetting the exterior facades.
So far this is not bad at all, but it is a compilation of links that people already know more or less.
The following link, found in February and posted on google+ , seems less known, at least for a lot of people I talk to who do not see what it is.
This site is an exploration proposed by Itinérance, but also with the Google team, and / or technology used in museums, ' Art Project ' . So here you will explore a bit to find another form of the visit building, with a different immersion in apartments and more accurate information.
For example this: You may find it here.
By clicking on the image, this gives us with the Google Art Project zoom graduated via the mouse wheel, a well known level of precision (here at the maximum), and also available in full screen without legend:
The tour continues on this site which also offers videos and other info I'll let you discover!

Innovation Awards 2020
Finalists Announced
EDGE 2020 Goes Virtual

SYDNEY, June 1, 2006 – Fortinet – the pioneer and leading provider of multi-threat security solutions – today strengthened its high-end product portfolio with the announcement of new load-balancing switch and high-performance security blades for its FortiGate-5000 Series, the world's only AdvancedTCA (ATCA)-compliant security systems.

Targeted at telecommunication carriers, managed security service providers (MSSPs), and large organisations with bandwidth-intensive requirements, the FortiController-5208 switch and FortiGate-5005 security blades work together to boost security scalability in 10 gigabit Ethernet (GbE) networked environments.

Multi-threat protection for 10G networks

Rising volumes of data traffic, media-rich applications and data centre consolidation are driving the need for increased bandwidth scalability and high-speed connections. To accommodate this, MSSPs, carriers, large enterprises and governmental institutions are quickly adopting 10GbE connections for their high-bandwidth networks.

At the same time, security threats are increasing and require multiple methods of network and application layer protection, which can often be taxing to network performance and scalability. Security systems must co-exist in 10GbE environments and perform the required traffic inspection and protection against intrusions, viruses and other types of threats without significantly crippling network performance and scalability.

Fortinet is addressing this challenge with the industry's first multi-threat security system for 10GbE environments. Deployable in the FortiGate-5020 two-slot, 5050 five-slot and 5140 14 –slot modular chassis-based systems, the FortiGate-5005 and FortiController-5208 blades work together to deliver multi-gigabit anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall, VPN and intrusion prevention system (IPS) performance and scalability.

Flexible security for core network deployments

The FortiController-5208 blade includes two 10GbE interfaces and eight 1GbE interfaces, making it ideal for high-performance core and data centre network deployments. The FortiController-5208 blade also provides switch-based interconnection to distribute traffic to other FortiGate blades and load balances between them for increased performance and scalability.

The new FortiGate-5005 blade provides a full range of flexible network security software modules -- including firewall, antivirus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention system (IPS), anti-spam, Web content filtering, VPN, and traffic shaping – that can be deployed individually or in a combination of security modules, depending on customer requirements.

Customers can configure FortiGate-5000 systems in a variety of ways to meet a wide range of throughput, reliability, scalability and security requirements through the combination of FortiGate and FortiController ATCA-compliant blades. The Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture, or ATCA, specification is an industry standard for the next generation of carrier grade communications equipment and Fortinet is the only security vendor to offer ATCA-compliant multi-threat security systems. The ATCA standard promises multi-vendor hardware interoperability with third party network vendors and system manufacturers.

"The strong demand for and success of our high-end product offerings among telecommunication carriers, MSSPs and enterprises has helped Fortinet become the fastest-growing network security vendor in the high-end market," said Ken Xie, founder, president and CEO of Fortinet. "Our new FortiController-5208 and FortiGate-5005ATCA blades extend the benefits of our FortiGate-5000 Series to 10GB network environments and increase security performance, scalability and deployment flexibility."

The FortiController-5208 module and FortiGate-5005 blade are available through a controlled early release program. The product will be made available to customers that meet qualification criteria. General availability is expected in 2H 06.

First, a little background. When I joined the prestigious Bacardi Legacy in the Philippines in 2015, one of the biggest challenges in that competition was how to market my cocktail. Incidentally I had a friend who used to be my client who asked how much I would charge for a "guest shift." I actually said it depends, as I probably had to consider my transportation expenses, food and labor at the time. But in my head I did not really have a clear concept of what a guest shift was.
So I asked around and did some research and soon realized that there are some bartenders who actually do guest shifts for a living! It really got me interested. The more I thought about it, the more it made sense—see, I myself would jump at the chance to see an international bartender like Luca Cinalli, Shingo Gokan to Peter Chua and Din Hassan, for instance.
Locally, guest shifts were still not a thing, but I thought why not try it out, for free, even, since I also wanted to promote my drink anyway? And so I did.
More Guest Shift Opportunities Roll In
Then in November 2016 I had my first trip to New York and Adam Seger of Tuck Room gave me a spot in his bar for a shift which I was pretty damn excited about. First of all he took me to a tour of his place and wow it was pretty awesome. He even had a secret room for VIPs! Here was where I got introduced to the Heizenberg which is a tower of beakers with ingredients and this would be infused by pouring liquid nitrogen several times until the right infusion is achieved. I already have my own here but haven't launched it yet.
Then the following year, brother Aki Wang of Indulge Experimental Bistro invited me over to do a two-day guest shift in both Indulge and Marco Polo. This was a bit more intense since my cocktail had a lot of prepping and squeezing involved. In any case it was a great experience. I also met some talented bartenders in both establishments. In fact Kevin of Marco Polo even joined Bacardi Legacy.
I afterwards did a guest shift in Boracay in Prisma and I was actually overwhelmed by the Filipino bartenders who came to attend. I wasn't really expecting that turnout since I didn't really think of myself as a superstar and I haven't really been mainstream but just in my own little corner of the world. I was honored and humbled to be in the line up of brother Agung, Andrew, Sam, and Sandeep.
Then my second trip to New York where I had a shift at Von bar featuring Pinoys! It was pretty humbling because it was industry night and all proceeds go to charity.
My most recent guest shift was in Singapore, which I talked about in my blog My Singapore Trip from May 5-11, 2018. This one was really a spur-of-the-moment thing but I did welcome it with open arms and now I have a deeper understanding about what a guest shift is.
So What is a Guest Shift?
A guest shift is when a bartender gets to work behind the stick of his friend's bar whether he gets paid or not. He has an option to be invited or invite himself. There is nothing wrong with inviting yourself since the worst answer you can get is a no.
But why do a guest shift?
My answer is you learn a lot of things. From the bar, the bartenders, the guests there and yourself as well as the culture of the country. Of course if one reaches a certain status in the industry then he will get paid to work behind the stick or even just have his plane fare and accommodation taken cared of by the host.
But let me tell you this, GUEST SHIFT is OPEN to everyone. In the end it is who you know and how close you are to this person or bartender. If they trust you then by all means they will invite you.
Are You Guest-Shift Ready?
Needless to say, however, is to not embarrass yourself: you should really deliver the best level of service that you can. You should be ready yourself before attempting to do a guest shift. Obviously since you will have guest contact you do not want to be a laughing stock or to compromise yourself in any way.
From your bio, to list of ingredients of your cocktails, to preparation, set up until breakdown everything must be flawless.
But do not be ashamed to say if you do not know something. In my case at the time I didn't know how to use a sous vide yet but I do know what a sous vide is. And of course now I will buy one to test what I have learned. Nobody is perfect but doing a guest shift lets you exchange ideas with your host.
So how do I end this? A guest shift is a good way of learning and testing your skills and your cocktails. It also shows if people trust you or are willing to give you a shot in their "home." Do not be disappointed if you get rejected. That only means two things, slots are full or it's not yet time.
This is just my two cents worth and each bartender has his own opinion on this matter.
So, that said, if you guys know of any current open slots for guest shifts, you know where to find me! Learning never stops, and at 42, there is more to do.
Peace out!

Two households, both alike in dignity,
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Doth with their death bury their parents' strife.
The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,
And the continuance of their parents' rage,
Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,
Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;
The which if you with patient ears attend,
What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend.
This is the introduction to William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, written in the form of a sonnet.
Shakespeare's play was based on The Tragicall Historye of Romeus and Juliet, a 1562 narrative poem by Arthur Brooke, which was actually the inspiration for many plays during the time.

Ocracoke and its Role in the True Story of Treasure Island
In this presentation Outer Banks author and maritime historian, John Amrhein, Jr., draws on his extensive research of the 1750 Spanish fleet, lost along the coast of North Carolina and Virginia, which inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's book Treasure Island. The story begins with the piracy of a fortune in silver from a disabled Spanish galleon in Ocracoke Inlet, North Carolina. These events took place in 1750, the same year that Stevenson's character, Captain James Flint, buried his treasure in Treasure Island.
The story of Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island is well-known and has inspired generations of books, movies and dramas since it was first published in 1883. In this presentation Amrhein tells the riveting tale of the historical events which inspired Stevenson's fictional classic. Through archival research Amrhein uncovered a treasure trove of information about a true tale of buried treasure. Amrhein uses historical documents, drawings and photographs to tell of the fateful events that led two brothers from Hampton Roads, Owen Lloyd and his one legged brother, John, to abscond with enough treasure to surpass pirate legends like Blackbeard.

In Romania, an abandoned Terrier had taken up residency in an office parking lot. She was living off scraps of food given to her by employees, but she would not let anyone come near her.
Local rescue Howl of a Dog, heard about the displaced pooch, and stepped in to help. She had eluded dog catchers in the past and was left traumatized and terrified of catch poles.
Under the supervision of a veterinarian, they used tranquilizers to calm her and were finally able to gain her trust. She had a flea infestation and wounds from excessive scratching. She was treated for all the ailments that come with life on the streets and then moved in with a foster.
She was named Zuzi, and even though she was off the street she still needed socialization. She had a sweet foster pad, her own food and water bowl, and a monogrammed bed, but none of that could compare to what was coming.
About a month later, she found a permanent home! Zuzi now resides in a loving home in Canada! She loves taking walks and going shopping for new toys. They said as soon as she got to her new home she felt quite comfortable and made herself feel right at home.

Rajeev Peshawaria
Thought Leader
CEO of the Iclif Leadership & Governance Centre, author of Too Many Bosses, Too Few Leaders, co-author of Be the Change and a regular writer for Forbes, Rajeev Peshawaria has extensive global experience in leadership and human capital consulting.
He began his professional life as a banker and currency trader. Very soon thereafter he became disillusioned with the fact that a lot of young people joined the workforce full of hope and enthusiasm, only to be crushed into cynicism by bosses who do not care enough to develop and nurture them. He could not understand the work-life balance debate, and struggled with questions like: Why are work and life considered so different and opposite from each other? Why don't people feel a sense of excitement coming to work every day? He also noticed that while technological advances were changing life and work at a pace never experienced before, certain management practice was still stuck in the 1930s.
Unable to discard these thoughts from his mind, Rajeev began to self-educate himself on the mysteries of human behaviour, and eventually abandoned the highly lucrative field of trading for a career in human resources – something that was considered suicidal at that time. He concluded that many people and organizations under-achieve their potential because of poor leadership, or at times, no leadership at all. He has since dedicated his life to redefining leadership, thereby helping individuals in enriching their lives, and organizations in achieving their full potential.
Rajeev has provided speaking and consulting services globally. His clients include Deutsche Bank, HSBC, Mitsubishi, Johnson & Johnson, MetLife, The World Bank, US Treasury, US Securities & Exchange Commission, Indian Railways, Sinarmas, Allianz, Permata Bank, PwC, Nestle, Mohammad bin Rashid School of Government, Prudential, Maybank, Great Eastern, Citibank and many more.
He has also served as guest faculty at leading business schools in the US, Europe and Asia. Prior to joining Iclif, he has been Chief Learning Officer of both Coca-Cola and Morgan Stanley, and has held senior positions at American Express and Goldman Sachs.
Rajeev has been featured on various media channels including Bloomberg TV and radio, National Public Radio (NPR), Harvard Business Review, CNBC, Fast Company, Forbes, Leader to Leader, American Management Association and Leadership Excellence magazines, The Times of India, The National Dubai and The Mint.

Safe. Compatible.
Minimal risk for breastfeeding and infant.
At latest update no published data on excretion into breast milk were found.
Excretion into breast milk is highly unlikely due to the low absorption through the skin (1%) or vaginal mucosa (8%) and hence a low presence into the blood.
Whenever used on the nipple apply it after feeding and remove excess of cream before the next meal.
It should be avoided the use on the nipple of creams, gels and other products for local application containing paraffin (mineral oil) to keep the infant off from absorption.
