AUDIENCE: Johny, Aziz, Sunita, Thiago, Adeem, Miranda
Host: Rick
Moderator: Johny
Panel PRO summary:
- Products of a small store are often handmade thus they are made with love and care.
- A family business can be passed on to the kids of the owner; they don't lose the family business.
- A small business can buy, adapt and implement new techniques, policy, executives' management due to more streamlined approach and less bureaucracy.
- As an employee in a business with a small number of employees, there is more opportunity to share benefits, especially if starting in a small start up and as it expands.
- With various layers of bureaucracy, you often don't know what is going on; you cannot predict what will happen with your job, with the company, with the products. You better understand the bottom line.
- When you inherit this small business, you would try to keep your beloved family business.
- When you enter large company store as a consumer, the environment may not be as friendly than a small family store.
- More of a direct impact to the local economy.
- Easier to change business strategy, and business model, due to less "red tape" and administrative layers.
- In a small business, you may have the opportunity to cross train and learn new skills due to the lower number of employees and the need to diversity your knowledge (sales, inventory management, marketing, customer service etc)
Panel CON summary:
- Volume: a megastore operates off a large production, distribution and marketing base, which results in lower priced products on the shelf being available for consumers (lower per unit cost)
- A large company has business transactions with a variety of vendors, other stores etc, which results in more diversity being made available for the consumer (clothing, appliances, tools, etc.)
- Big companies tend to operate with a higher standards; they are required to apply quality assurance so the quality of both product and customer service may be better.
- If you are an employee, you can achieve a position inside the company which would allow you to travel abroad for doing business with other companies around the world, as well as to apply for international positions in the same company.
- If you are a hard worker in a big organization and if you are able to show you are top performer, you can have more opportunities to be promoted and reach higher positions.
- Small companies often do not offer as many benefits whereas large companies do.
- Small business does not have exposures to new products, to other companies or to better supplies, thus they may not have as much diversity in products in their shelves.
- Large foreign companies still collaborate with and offer a small benefit to the local economy.
- Personnel of small family business may not be as much professional. They can involve personal issues in the workplace environment, which can negatively impact customer service and degrade the reputation and credibility of the business.
- As an employee you have the chance to work with very well qualified personnel and bosses and you can learn about high standards about costumer treatment policies.
- As an employee in a big mall you have the opportunity to visit other stores and buy food during your lunch break.
AUDIENCE summary:
- Aziz voted for the team B
- Johny voted for the tam B
- Sunita left early.

Voice-over acting has, since the development of sound in movies, become an indispensable part of filmmaking. From animated films, to voice-over narration to overdubbing actors who have problems speaking, a great vocal performance can help elevate a film from entertaining to great.
Ironically, while voice actors are well-loved by audiences, and though actors fight to get vocal performance roles, the technique is somewhat underappreciated. No Oscar exists for voice-over work, even though providing a vocal track can be key to making a film work. Imagine any of these films without the signature voice-over performance. Would they have the same profound or popular effect without one of their most memorable elements?
Of all the countless voice-over performances in cinema, these fifteen stand out as the most exemplary. From animated donkeys to wicked demons, crazed witches to megalomaniacal robots, teams of craftsman gave these characters form, but only a great voice-over performance could bring the character to life.
Here are 15 Voice-Over Actors Who Gave Oscar Worthy Performances.
15 Leonard Nimoy, Transformers: The Movie
Though a less-than-perfect movie (to say the least), the 1985 animated outing by the Transformers does have its share of redeeming qualities, chief among them a fascinating cast, and some terrific new characters. Of the seasoned vocal performers involved in the production, which includes heavy-hitters Orson Welles, Scatman Crothers and Frank Welker, Leonard Nimoy stands out from the rest as the reincarnated Decepticon Galvatron.
Nimoy dives into the role with maniacal fury, playing Galvatron as something of a genocidal zealot, plotting to wipe out the Autobots. On a movie that aspires to sell toys more than tell a story, Nimoy easily could have phoned in his performance. Instead he creates a rich character, intimidating and teeming with terror.
14 Frank Oz, The Empire Strikes Back
Prior to The Empire Strikes Back, the movies had never featured a character like Yoda before, realized through ground-breaking puppetry techniques… and through the performance of one heck of an actor: Frank Oz. Oz made a career for himself as a fine director (Little Shop of Horrors, Bowfinger) and as one of the chief Muppets performers, bringing characters like Animal, Miss Piggy and Fozzie Bear to life.
Most impressive of all, however, his sage-like Yoda croaking about the beauty and power of the Force inspired generations of viewers to abide by his lesson: "do or do not; there is no try."
George Lucas campaigned hard for Oz to get an Academy Award nomination, though his listing as a puppeteer doomed his chances. Though several technicians helped Oz perform Yoda in the film, it is Oz's embodiment as an actor that made Yoda one of the best characters ever.
13 Ellen DeGeneres, Finding Nemo
In early 2003, the world saw Ellen DeGeneres as more of a controversy than a performer. Though an acclaimed stand-up comic and actress, her public coming out attracted more attention to her private life than her work. By the end of 2003, however, DeGeneres was often cited as delivering one of the year's best performances in Finding Nemo.
DeGeneres provides the voice for Dory, a forgetful fish helping to locate the titular character. Like Robin Williams, DeGeneres improvised many of her own lines, which only made the film even more hilarious. Dory ranks among the best characters Pixar has ever produced, and nobody else in the world could have played the part as great as DeGeneres. For further proof, look no further than Finding Dory, the long awaited sequel which focuses even more on her character.
12 James Earl Jones, Star Wars
Along with Frank Oz's Yoda, one voice resonates high above all the performances in the entire Star Wars series. From his first entrance on, Darth Vader swordplayed into his status as one of the most iconic villains in history, due in no small part to the actor voicing him: James Earl Jones. Jones's reverberating bass brought a cold evil to the character rarely seen in the movies, a counterpoint to his physical form encased in a fiberglass costume.
Though stunt man David Prowse played Vader within the suit, Jones brings the role pathos. The echo of Vader's voice intimates mechanical evil and relentless cruelty, and Jones's performance helped to elevate the original Star Wars trilogy to mythic levels. A cameo from Jones as Vader in Revenge of the Sith helped make it the best of the prequel series, and Vader's possible return in Rogue One could help cement the movie as a runaway hit.
11 Eddie Murphy, Shrek
Shrek took the world by storm in 2001 with its blend of fairy tale settings and fairytale satire. Nobody had expected it to become the hit it became, and for that matter, no one foresaw that Eddie Murphy would steal the movie from fellow actors Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, and John Lithgow.
But run away with the film Murphy did, as Donkey, a talking ass full of quick-witted zingers and innocent wonder. Murphy, one of the screen's most versatile actors, balances Donkey as both comic relief and a moral anchor to the self-loathing of Myers's Shrek. Entertainment Weekly named Murphy the "Best Ass" of 2001, while the British Academy of Film nominated the actor for one of their prestigious BAFTAs. It's a shame the same thing couldn't happen in Hollywood.
10 Christopher Lee, The Last Unicorn
A versatile actor of varied fare, Lee always considered The Last Unicorn among his best work, and jumped at the chance to voice the character King Haggard. Lee had a way of portraying pure malevolence on screen, and The Last Unicorn testifies to his ability.
Haggard exudes pain, cruelty and sadness. Hollywood lore holds that Lee committed so fully to the role that the actor actually brought in his own copy of the original novel with highlighted dialogue left out of the script which he found vital to the character. Lee also agreed to play Haggard in a long-in-Development-Hell live action version of the story. That Lee passed away before the film could be made is our loss: he's nothing short of amazing in the animated film.
9 Andy Serkis, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
Lord of the Rings fans left out a collective groan of disappointment when the Academy Awards overlooked Andy Serkis as giving one of the best supporting turns of 2002. Serkis created the pitiful Gollum through the then-groundbreaking technique known as motion capture: Serkis acted the role on camera, and then had a computer track his movements to create an animated character.
Debate raged in Hollywood as to how much of the character originated with Serkis's performance as opposed to with the visual effects team. Still, much like Frank Oz's work in The Empire Strikes Back, the pathos of Gollum originates with Serkis, who creates one of the most memorable roles in film. That Serkis has gone on to give other great vocal performances, most notably in the Planet of the Apes films, only underlines his power as an actor.
8 Betty Lou Gerson, 101 Dalmatians
Gerson became an actress after landing several roles on classic radio drama. Her screen appearances proved only sporadic, but she did manage to create one of the movies' most memorable villains: puppy-napping fashionista Cruella DeVil. Her Cruella teems with over-the-top gusto, and with obsessive ambition, by turns outrageously funny and scary.
101 Dalmatians, as a film, drags in places, hampered by a thin plot and stiff main characters. The movie comes to life, however, every time Cruella makes an entrance, hair wild and chain smoking. Gerson injects the character with wild energy, and provides Disney with one of its signature villains.
7 Douglas Rain, 2001: A Space Odyssey
Most of the entries on this list earned their spots by breathing dynamic emotion and energy into their roles. Find here the exception: actor Douglas Rain, who provides the voice of HAL 9000 in the sci-fi opus 2001: A Space Odyssey. Calling HAL the hero of the film isn't exactly right, nor is it correct to call him a villain, either.
HAL is an enigma, a super-intelligent computer designed to function as part of the human crew. Rain's vocal performance creates a cold, analytical HAL, all at once both creepy and childlike; a character that personifies the uncanny valley. For further proof of the effect of Rain's performance, look no further than Star Trek: The Next Generation, in which veteran actress Majel Barret seems to channel HAL's cool intelligence, or The Silence of the Lambs, in which Anthony Hopkins imbues Hannibal Lecter with computer-like coldness.
6 Mercedes McCambridge, The Exorcist
McCambridge made a career for herself in radio dramas (for which Orson Welles once dubbed her "the world's greatest radio actress") before making a transition to stage roles and the big screen. Though she picked up an Oscar for her movie debut in All The King's Men, by the 1970s she struggled to get parts. Then Hollywood came calling again…
Director William Friedkin tapped McCambridge to provide the voice of the demon in The Exorcist after actress Linda Blair's child vocals proved too sweet. The final film uses Blair and McCambridge, though it's the latter that is the dominant voice. McCambrige drank whiskey, raw eggs and chain smoked to get into her character, resulting in one of the most evil—and memorable—characters of all time.
5 Jim Henson, The Muppet Movie
The Muppets had already become popular stars when they made their big-screen debut in 1979 with The Muppet Movie. The movie earned near-universal acclaim for its humor, music and jaw-dropping puppetry techniques that made Kermit able to ride a bike, and Fozzie able to drive a car. Their greatest addition often goes overlooked, however: a new dimension of character complexity, especially in lead Muppet, Kermit.
On the small screen Kermit had been something of a put-upon host. In the movie, however, Jim Henson injects him with real fears and hopes. Nowhere does Henson shine brighter than when Kermit wanders alone into the desert, wrestling with failure and disappointing his friends. His sadness and love of his friends is so pure, Henson makes the audience forget they're watching a felt puppet, or even a frog; Kermit instead becomes a relatable human being.
4 Eartha Kitt, The Emperor's New Groove
The trouble production history and wacky tone of The Emperor's New Groove makes it something of a curio and ugly stepchild of the all-too-dignified canon of Disney animation. That pays wild disservice to the film: it might be the funniest the studio has ever made. At the center of the comedy: scheming witch Yzma, who sets the plot in motion by turning King Cuzco into a lama. The source of Yzma's humor: actress Eartha Kitt, who purrs her way through the role and steals the movie outright from David Spade and John Goodman.
Kitt's exotic looks and voice made finding screen parts difficult; she always played to great acclaim on stage and in cabaret shows. The Emperor's New Groove, however, proves her talent as an actress, and provides one of Disney's best-ever characters. If Oscar ignored Kitt, at least she found some consolation later: her performance of Yzma in television spinoff The Emperor's New School earned the actress two Emmys!
3 Ned Beatty, Toy Story 3
Sometimes, even more than a malevolent villain, a two-faced friendly baddie can unnerve an audience to the core. Case in point: Ned Beatty's incredible performance as Lotso, the villainous teddy bear in Toy Story 3. Limping around a daycare, using a hammer as a crutch, Lostso rules as a despot, mutilating and tossing toys with sadistic relish. His cuddly appearance only adds to the creepiness of his character.
Beatty plays the role simply and straightforward, which helps to hide the pain that drove Lotso to his awful ways. He's the anti-Woody; all pessimism and doom, he's bitter and manipulative. His performance makes Lotso into a blood curdling villain.
2 Eleanor Audley, Sleeping Beauty
Maleficent carries the distinction of being the baddest of all Disney's villains. Slinky, cruel and unyielding, she exudes pure evil thanks to a memorable character design, and a wonderful performance by Eleanor Audley.
A popular character actress for playing old lady types on television, her Maleficent is a performance for the ages, her voice rasping with perfect diction and terror. Audley's vocal dynamics help make Maleficent into a force of nature. When she hisses her best line, "now you will deal with me, and all the powers of Hell, we believe she stepped out of the flames of the damned!"
1 Robin Williams, Aladdin
"The ever impressive... the long-contained...the often imitated, but never... duplicated... duplicated... duplicated... duplicated... Genie of the Lamp!"
The late Robin Williams had, perhaps, his best role ever, playing the gassy blue Genie in Aladdin. Williams actually plays the Genie as dozens of different personas, often impersonating different celebrities, and all before he even performs a show-stopping musical number.
That Williams also recorded a full sixteen hours of vocal material only makes the feat more impressive, as does the fact that he improvised nearly all his dialogue. The great comedian took the role for scale pay, which boggles the mind: without Williams as Genie, Aladdin would never have achieved this level of popularity!
Can you think of any other voice-over performances that deserve some more respect? Let us know in the comments!

FLOWERS 2018 (Chelsea Flower Show)
Having exhibited her CUBA exhibition at Partridge's Café in Duke of York's Square, King's Road, Harriet was asked to exhibit during Chelsea Flower Show with a 'Botanical' theme.
Brocket is broadening her work into 'homes and gardens' so this seemed fitting.
Showing now until 4th June 2018.
Having lived and worked in Madrid & Buenos Aires, Harriet's love for the latino way-of-life fuelled a long term desire to visit Cuba. Harriet originally visited Cuba in March 2007 and returned again in March 2017, one decade on. The images in this collection reflect different aspects of Cuba, its people and its culture providing an insight into the vibrancy of Cuban life.
Brocket was asked to exhibit her CUBA images at the world launch of the new limited edition Cohiba cigar 'El Talismán' on 7 November 2017. The exhibition then continued until 30 November 2017 at Grace, Belgravia, London, SW1 and then at DigitasLBI at The Truman Brewery, Brick Lane, London. CUBA then moved to Partridge's Café on King's Road, London.
Please contact email@example.com if you would like to arrange a viewing.
Photos from the exhibition:
Invisible City
Invisible City explores the context in which an artist will often view the world around them, they find a perpective that may be invisible to a passive glance. Within this collection, Brocket presents a passing glimpse of worldwide cities that may no longer even exist, buildings that themselves hide people to make them invisible, that use camoflage to be something other than they may appear to be, captured moments in places that disappear…. beyond invisible.

Mayor Celia Wade-Brown with other key players at the new ASB Sports Centre
Mayor Celia Wade-Brown has welcomed today's announcement that ASB has entered into a 10-year agreement for naming rights for the new centre.
"That ASB has come to the party is excellent news for Wellingtonians - ASB's generous support will help to keep the centre's running costs down, not only for users but also for ratepayers.
"ASB will also get to associate itself with one of the most prominent buildings in the region - and one of the most prestigious."
Supporting Wellington's new sports centre fits with ASB's commitment to regional and national sporting initiatives, says Linley Wood, ASB Chief Community Partnership Officer.
"ASB is committed to making a tangible difference in the communities in which we operate, so being involved with this iconic Wellington sports facility demonstrates our support for both grassroots sports activity and for the people of the region," says Ms Wood.
Mayor Wade-Brown says she is highly excited about having the privilege of officially opening the $47.5 million ASB Sports Centre this Saturday (27 August).
"It will provide our city with a much needed quality training and playing indoor community facility, and contribute significantly to our aim of getting "more people, more active, more often".
The state-of-the-art centre will be a venue for a large variety of indoor sports, community recreation and school programmes. It will be able to host local, regional and national sports tournaments.
The new facility is equivalent in size to 12 full-size netball courts. It has the biggest area of sprung sports flooring in New Zealand, retractable seating for up to 2,200 spectators around a show court, 317 off-street vehicle parks, a cafe, sports control rooms, offices, accommodation for sports codes and a high performance sports facility. A large social activity space and meeting rooms will be available for hire.
The Council is also grateful to the New Zealand Community Trust (NZCT) for supporting the sports equipment fit-out of the centre and Sport and Recreation New Zealand (SPARC) for funding the fit-out of the High Performance Sports Hub.
The management and operation of the centre is in great hands - Centre Manager Craig Hutchings has more than 20 years' experience in the sport and recreation industry, and has managed a variety of venues - including the University of Sydney Sport and Aquatic Centre, and University of Queensland sports facilities.
In conjunction with city and regional sports organisations, the Council is planning a range of sport and active recreation programmes and services, the aim being to reach as many people in the community as possible. NZCT is committed to ongoing support for the delivery of a 'Youth in Sport Programme' to enable sports codes to deliver school, club and community activities.
The centre is being used as an indoor training venue for the Rugby World Cup during September and October. Scheduled programmes, sports and community activities will begin in late October.

Today I have two posts by this artist and what's amazing is that he's using a legendary artist like Zdzislaw Beksinski as his personal repository to take from. Both posts today have the same problem in the fact that this designer feels that he can just take another artists brush strokes as his "greebly detail" and use them for his album covers and layout. It's direct and unquestionable plagiarism as the artwork has not been modified enough and in the case of this one specifically, it still basically looks like the same IDEA even though he photoshopped different details into the tower. Even the most casual Beksinski fan would see this artwork above and pick it out as his work.
The highlighted area is just for frame of reference, but I'm assuming that this entire piece has other elements lifted from other Beksinski works.

Weddings are about the people getting married, not the money that has been spent. The focus of the day must remain on the couple and their loved ones. You can use this article to make sure things are focused on when it comes to your wedding.
One consideration in wedding planning is alcohol service. You'll want to determine the way that meets you needs, including the cost and the way to serve the kinds of alcohol that you prefer. If there's a bar that's open, it can be expensive, especially the longer it's open. Ask about the different serving options your venue offers regarding alcohol.
If you decide to cater your own wedding party, go to the big wholesale stores, like Costco. When shopping wholesale, you can get large amounts of food for cheaper than you could if you did not wholesale shop. Think about asking people you know to assist with the food costs.
When you are planning on who will be giving the speeches at the wedding, have them rehearse the material before you so that you can make sure everything is appropriate. You may have several generations attending your wedding, and jokes that may be suitable for younger folks could offend the elders.
The pictures you will have taken on your wedding day are meant to be a memento of your happy day for a lifetime. Choose to hire a professional who can photograph your day in a way that is going to document all of your special moments, even if it means spending a little extra.
If you need to look great on your wedding day but money is a bit tight, then considering renting rather than buying any diamonds used in the wedding. This helps you turn heads during the ceremony without turning your bank balance into a bunch of zeroes.
Don't forget about the transportation on your wedding day. For people who need a ride back to their hotels at night, arrange to have taxis and limos ready for them. Also, this is helpful for those who drank liquor during the event.
Even if your gut tells you otherwise, you should never commit to a wedding photographer without considering several other options. You wouldn't want bad wedding pictures. Check online reviews or ask your family members for recommendations on a good photographer where you live.
Adequate Space
Make sure that the venue you choose for your reception has adequate space for dancing. You don't want to have dancers crashing into seated guests or knocking over the dessert table, so ensure you have adequate space available. If necessary, move some chairs and tables out of the way to make more room.
If you want to add some sparkle and class to your bouquet, use crystals, diamonds, or rhinestones. This is easy to do at home; you can just use some heat-fixed crystals or adhesives, some costume jewelry or even attach a heirloom piece. To create a cohesive look, be sure that the colors, cut, and the size of any stones you use match or compliment each other.
This person should be able to tote around all of your things for you. Your assistant can help you corral the wedding party for great photographs.
If you are looking for some local assistance for your wedding, have a look on Craigslist. Don't pay any of your responders a penny until you meet with them personally, and always have your betrothed accompany you, for safety's sake.
As was stated earlier, weddings are about two people and the love they share, not extravagant preparations to "wow" your guests. Your wedding can very well be wonderful due to the love you share. So use the advice from this article to plan a wedding that is both special and just right for your budget.

Satisfy your kids' cravings for chicken fingers in a healthier way with this crispy whole grain baked panko crusted chicken.
Can I let you in on a little secret? My five year old girls have never had chicken fingers or chicken nuggets. While you're picking up your jaw from the ground, let me explain.
I was actually a very avid chicken nugget eater as a child, but not the kind from fast food places. Rather I'd eat the ones from a box you'd find in the freezer aisle. Definitely not as unhealthy as the deep fried nuggets and chicken fingers that are on every children's menu, but not the healthiest option either.
My mother also made an amazing chicken schnitzel, which was breaded and pan-fried – I could never get enough of that meal as a kid. In case you're wondering, I wasn't exactly the most adventurous eater as a child and most people would probably say I was "picky" (by the way, I strongly dislike classifying kids that way).
When it came time to bring my own children to restaurants, I didn't want to go the traditional route of ordering off the kids' menu, where the options generally consist of chicken fingers and fries, macaroni and cheese, grilled cheese and fries, and pizza. My girls, who I like to call little gourmet foodies, have always eaten what my husband and I eat at home (no short order cooking in my house!), so when it came to restaurant meals I was not going to make an exception.
As the girls have gotten older, I have worried that if we go out to eat with their friends they would ask for the chicken fingers they see on their peer's plates, but luckily for me this hasn't happened yet. They love their grilled cheese with (sweet potato) fries just as much as any other kid, but they're also happy getting a veggie burger, fish tacos, or sharing what I order for myself.
And in fact, my girls have never actually asked for chicken fingers at a restaurant or at home. Maybe because I make my own version – this Baked Panko Crusted Chicken, which is crispy, flavorful, and doesn't compare to what's served from a package.
I have been making baked panko crusted chicken for a long time – well before my girls were born. My husband happens to love fried chicken (who doesn't?!), but he knows I would never make it at home, so this has been the substitute for years. I've tweaked the ingredients and the way I prepare it along the way, and have finally perfected the recipe.
Today is the perfect day to share this recipe with you because it fit within this month's theme for The Recipe ReDux.
Spring Clean the Kitchen
Cook with at least 3 ingredients that are actually in your refrigerator or pantry right now. Try not to go to the store to buy anything new.
This recipe includes numerous items I always have on hand – chicken breasts in the freezer; whole wheat panko, dried herbs and spices, and honey in the pantry; whole grain Dijon mustard and eggs in the refrigerator; and garlic on my kitchen counter. Let's just say that this is a meal I can whip up in 30 minutes even if I haven't been to the supermarket in days.
I use thinly pounded boneless, skinless chicken breasts, which I find work better than using thick cutlets that get crispy on the outside but not fully cooked on the inside. The thin cutlets also cook up quickly, making this a quick and easy weeknight dinner – definitely something every family wants and needs! My butcher sells thin sliced chicken breasts, but if you can't find them you can pound regular chicken cutlets or buy chicken tenders.
Instead of traditional bread crumbs, I use whole wheat panko. If you're not familiar, panko are Japanese breadcrumbs that are lighter and coarser than regular bread crumbs, which helps keep your "fried" food healthier because they don't absorb as much oil and fat. They're lower in calories and sodium and higher in fiber than traditional Italian bread crumbs, plus they stay crisper after cooking.
Most panko that's widely available is not whole wheat, so be sure to look for the whole grain variety (Kikkoman and Ian's are two brands I have found at the supermarket). Panko is pretty bland on it's own, but I don't mind that at all because it allows me to flavor it with the herbs and spices I want. For this panko crusted chicken I add marjoram, herbes de Provence, kosher salt, and freshly ground pepper to the dry panko. I have also at times added chili powder and other spices, so feel free to mix it up and make your own flavored panko.
Unlike most recipes that call for breading, I don't use any flour to make this panko crusted chicken. I coat each chicken cutlet in a garlic egg wash (simply made by whisking one egg with freshly minced garlic), followed by the herb panko. I then place the cutlets on a wire rack set over a foil-lined baking sheet. This last step is the KEY to crispy baked chicken. For years I made the chicken directly on the baking sheet, but one side would always get soggy. Baking the chicken on the wire rack allows for air flow all around the chicken, which maintains the crispy texture of the coating.
While most kids eat chicken fingers and nuggets with fries and ketchup, I love serving my panko crusted chicken with a side of roasted vegetables and a simple honey mustard sauce for dipping. You really can't get easier than this – grainy Dijon mustard and honey are whisked together. That's it. Yes, it takes about a minute longer than just squeezing the ketchup out of the bottle, but it adds a little kick to the chicken and takes the dish up a notch.
Ready to satisfy your kids' cravings for chicken fingers in a healthier way? Here's the recipe!
Are your kids nuggets fans?
Do you think they'd like this healthier version?

Great way to make a healthy version of chicken fingers for the kids! I'm sure these disappear fast at the dinner table! Nice tip for baking the chicken on a wire rack to get it crispy!
That panko crust!! Only one of the girls and my husband eat chicken but I think this would make me try it again. I've been trying to add more things to my diet but it's a texture thing with chicken. I bet I could use this delicious crunchy crust on other things.
This reminds me of a dish we always had growing up. It was a family favorite!
These look delicious, Jessica! And good for you for keeping your girls away from the darn kids menu.
I wish kids menus were not a thing and rather smaller portions of anything on the menu was offered instead.
I love using Panko. This looks delicious!
Great idea about baking the chicken on a wire rack – makes perfect sense to get it nice & crispy! We use panko all the time for our white fish, but haven't tried it on chicken in a long time. Need to make it, as I (and the boys) love crispy chicken. On another note, kids meals are so disappointing! Though some good restaurants "get it." We usually bring Lucca's food (still) from home, but we're getting to the point where he'll be ordering with us. Heartening to know that the girls opt for what you're eating/the healthier options.
With healthy recipes like these there is no need to buy processed chicken nuggets! Love it 🙂
This looks great! Panko is pretty much a staple in my house – I love its crispy taste. Can't wait to try this!
What a great way to make this healthy! Love that your kiddos are little foodies. Those kids menus are awful!
This looks like a great alternative to store bought nuggets or hitting up the drive thru. Surely even the pickiest child couldn't resist these right?? They look great, and this coating could be great on other things as well. Thanks for sharing!
These look so yummy! Great alternative when the kids (of all ages) are craving some fast food chicken!
Love this recipe – something my whole family will enjoy!
i love when you can make simple, delicious recipes with ingredients you have on hand…i will be giving this a try very soon.
Yum! I love using panko crumbs! I did something similar with tempeh once and it was so good!
Cooking with panko crumbs is the best. I bet my son would love this one too
Ahhhh I can't wait to make this! My son loves chicken fingers and this seems like a perfect healthy dinner option. Plus, that mustard on top looks so yummy.
YUM!!! This sounds so awesome, I LOVE using panko bread crumbs for cooking too. 🙂
Definitely putting these on my must make list! Always looking for better for you dinner options! Yum!
I looooooove panko on chicken! There's a restaurant nearby that does the same thing but they stuff it with cheese!
This looks sooo good!!! I love the addition of panko, remind me of shake b bake but loadddss healthier
Love this! I make a version of this with almond flour to make it gluten free!
Looks so good!
My nanny kids sound like your girls- adventurous foodies!
I'll make the chicken for my kids and the roasted veggies for my husband and myself. Wait. The side is roasted veggies right?
Looks delicious, Jessica. Can´t wait to try your twist!
good method and well explain
This looks really tasty! I love anything honey mustard.

We were unable to provide opening hours. Please contact the Church for more information
Getting here
To read our current magazine click The Gossip.
There has probably been a place of worship on the site of the Parish Church of St John the Baptist, Wellington since Saxon times but the present building is mostly in the Perpendicular style of the 15th century.
The church underwent two major restorations in 1848/50 and 1938, and in 1986/7 the Victorian pews were removed and the nave and chancel refloored. In the east window of the Lady chapel is the church's rarest feature, a Lily Crucifix carved on the centre mullion, but perhaps its most famous feature is the impressive monument in the north chancel aisle to Sir John Popham who was Chief Justice of England under Elizabeth 1 and James 1. He was, perhaps, Wellington's most famous resident and lived in a substantial mansion in the town. The first organ was placed in the church in around 1700 and the present instrument was last rebuilt in 1997 at a cost of £60,000.
Regular activities at St John the Baptist, Wellington, to which anybody is welcome:
Home Groups meet regularly -- at least two in short bursts throughout the year, but four or more during Lent.
There is a monthly Coffee Morning on a Saturday in the Church Hall, often with a particular theme (e.g. crafts, plants etc). This is attended by many who otherwise have no Church connection.
There is a monthly Soup Lunch (ploughman's in the summer) on a Friday, also in the Church Hall; sometimes replaced by a cream tea at the weekend in July & August.
A monthly after-school activity -- "Smile" -- for under 12's and an accompanying adult, on a Wednesday. Drinks and snacks 3.15 PM to 3.45 PM, crafts, activities, game, story, prayer, songs until 4.30 PM. Come when you can and go when you must!
A Parents and Toddlers Group meets in the Church Hall on Mondays and Thursdays in term time and some of the holidays.
A branch of the Mothers Union meets on the first Tuesday of most months at 2.30 PM in the Church Hall.
The Church Hall is available for hire (both regular or occasional bookings) This is a nice modern hall with a good kitchen. Contact the Parish Office for details - Mrs Sharon Chorley (01823 665254) Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, 9:00 to 13:00 e-mail [email protected]

I have read a couple of great blog posts over the past couple of days about the final stage of completing a doctorate and the various conflicts that emerge throughout this perilous journey.
The Thesis Whisperer is a great blog for anyone studying or researching, with a lot of helpful tips, stories and resources available. Yesterday the post was called Are You Stopping Yourself From Finishing Your PhD? It reviews and comments on a new book called "Our Dissertations, ourselves" by Christine Sorrell Dinkins and Jeanne Merkle Sorrell. I'm thinking of purchasing the book to read over the Xmas break. The book apparently covers many important issues for women research students around identity, isolation, writing, relationships and supervision – all of which are of particular interest to me.
Another blog post from 100 Days to the Doctorate and Beyond also discuss similar issues and this week's post looked at the myth of the work-life balance. My favourite part of the blog…
The work-life balance and completing your doctorate are a myth. You do not get to work full time and study full time and have a clean house. See friends. Exercise. Cook. You get to work on life-survival mode only.
For those who don't know, I worked full-time or part-time throughout my candidature as I was not fortunate enough to receive a scholarship. For the first 2 years I worked full time hours and studies full time, but this year I dropped down to part time work in order to focus more on the thesis. Whilst I don't have children to take care of like many of my fellow candidates do, I have my partner, my family, my friends, a house to clean and meals to cook. Of course, I admire so strongly, those women who can add the full time role of motherhood to their list… something I can't even comprehend the difficulty of. Some days certain tasks take pole position on the priority list and others fall to the bottom… and that's just life.
It is all about prioritising, and whilst the thesis will have to become a higher priority, especially in these last few months, I also refuse for it to be my number 1 priority. My family and friends will always come first… at the end of the day they are what matter most to me. If I died tomorrow I would like to know that I worked and studied hard, yes, but more importantly that I gave my family and friends as much of my time and energy that I could; that I was present in their lives and that I showed them how important they are to me. That might mean that my thesis is not as 'good' as it could have been at the end of the day – but it just has to be 'good enough'.

Crayon Pop's "Uh-ee" Ruled Unfit for Broadcast Due to Japanese Lyrics
Girl group Crayon Pop's new song "Uh-ee" was ruled unfit for broadcast by KBS. This was due to the song's use of "bbikka bbunjjuk," which is the Japanese style expression for the Korean equivalent of "bbunjjuk bbunjjuk," meaning 'shiny.' In the reviews done by MBC and SBS, however, these lyrics did not pose any problem.
Crayon Pop's agency Chrome Entertainment said that they've changed the lyrics to "bbunjjuk bbunjjuk" and requested another review of the song by KBS.
"Uh-ee" is Crayon Pop's first single since their song "Bar Bar Bar" last June, and is a light-hearted song that features a trot-inspired melody and comical dance.

Here are K&M Kleening's Top 3 Tips for Spot Cleaning Carpet Spills:
- Take a clean white rag and gently blot up much of the spill as possible. Don't rub it, just gently press on the towel until all the liquid is absorbed.
- Take a recommended carpet spotter spray area and perimeter let it set for approximately 3-5 minutes. Use a clean white rag and blot stain, again not rubbing it, until stain is removed.
- Spray area with plain water, using clean white rag to blot area. At this point you can lightly rub the area until dry.

Adele is following in the footsteps of Taylor Swift and refusing to release her much-anticipated new album, "25," on Internet streaming services.
The Grammy winner's first album in almost five years will be released on Friday, but her record label representatives have told companies such as Spotify and Apple Music that the album will not be made available to their streaming services, according to The New York Times.
"We love and respect Adele, as do her 24 million fans on Spotify," a Spotify spokesman said in a statement. "We hope that she will give those fans the opportunity to enjoy '25' on Spotify alongside '19' and '21' very soon."
Adele's decision comes nearly a year after Swift cut ties with Spotify and called out bosses for failing to pay artists enough money. Similarly, in June, the pop star wrote an open letter to bosses of the newly-launched Apple Music, explaining that she is withholding her hit album '1989' from the service, describing the company's initial artist terms as "shocking" and "disappointing". Bosses originally had plans to keep royalties from any streams during the service's three-month free trial.
Apple bosses reversed their policy and agreed to pay artists during the trial period after reading Swift's letter, and she subsequently gave them permission to stream her album.

Gifted - Day 2 - Getting There
Ephesians 4:11-14 - 11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, 12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.
We all know the classic statement kids have uttered from the back seat as long as the automobile has been around: "Are we there yet?" You've probably heard it said, said it yourself as a child, and thought it often as an adult while stuck in traffic. As impatient as we might get, the benefit of driving to a specific place is that at least we know when we've arrived. The challenge of this journey of faith in the life of the church is that our destination is not as easy to discern.
Instead of giving us point by point trip navigation a la Google maps, the Bible (in this case, through Paul) shows us where we are headed and some key ways of getting there.
Getting to our destination involves the unity of faith spoken of in devotional #19. Unity within the church isn't uniformity (remember, the body of Christ is diverse) but is part of the pavement that provides us the road we need to grow in our knowledge of the son of God (v.13). The greater the church's unity of faith, the greater it knows Jesus. This is more than math equation knowledge (1+1=2), it's relational knowledge. Sure I can't know a person unless I learn facts about them, but facts alone are not sufficient - we need to spend time with those whom we're in relationship with in order to know them deeply and personally. Our relationship with Christ is no different.
As the church grows in unity and knowledge, we get closer and closer to our destination: mature manhood, and attainment of the full measure and stature of Christ (v.13). This results in strength and stability that can weather the storms which would otherwise divide or destroy us (v.14).
• How is your relationship with Jesus going?
• Are you growing in knowledge of him, not only in your head, but also in your heart?
• Action - Spend some time in prayer praising God for growing us to maturity in Jesus.

"Food is so much more than a plate of nutrients," says Sonya Greer, a professor of marketing at American University. "When it's done right, food is well-being." She reminds us that food not only nourishes us; it also ignites our senses, conjures up emotions and can help connect family and friends around traditions, cultures and special events.
Marketing research and insights show that people are increasingly focused on eating while remaining disconnected from the sources of their food. They don't always know where their food comes from, who produced it or how far it traveled from farm to table. These days, people also spend less time planning and preparing meals and eating together.
The dairy community's new Undeniably Dairy effort aims to reconnect people to the farm and show how dairy foods make their way from farm to fridge. The campaign helps remind people why they love dairy in the first place, while also spreading the word about the nutritional benefits of milk, cheese, and yogurt.
Here are a few ideas for you and your clients to embrace as we help connect people to their food in a new way:
As nutrition professionals, we should remember just how much enjoyment and well-being motivate people's food choices. By finding creative ways to make healthful food fun and appealing, we can inspire others to eat better and have healthier lives.

Letters to the Editor
Letter to the Editor | Homecoming weekend traffic a mess
I understand that this was Homecoming weekend, parade and football. However, did the alumni, future alumni and parents of future alumni leave their brains at home? I saw a black Lincoln SUV go the wrong way on Fraser Street. Then it entered the parking garage at the corner of Beaver Avenue and Fraser Street at the exit. People leaving the garage had a very hard time getting around this wonder. And it was only 6:30 Friday evening.

By Fidelis Manyange
WITH the advent of the new dispensation, not only business people are ready to return home and invest, even musicians who have been based in the Diaspora for quite some time are preparing to come back home and give their local counterparts big competition.
All continents have Zimbabwe's talented artistes who are willing to come home for good.
Mechanic Manyeruke as well as Charles and Olivia Charamba are some of the artistes who helped popularise gospel music locally and abroad.
They have stayed put on homeground, returning home after shows abroad.
Gospel artistes who have recorded success abroad include Nursel Mandiopera as well as Timothy and Chaka Ngwenya who are holding sold out shows.
More artistes are now into gospel music with secular artistes scrambling to sing a gospel song or two with artistes of the genre.
And more people, according to pundits, appreciate the music which can be danced to or listened to by everyone, including children, without being embarrassed
One artiste who has topped charts in the UK, inspired by Charamba and Manyeruke, is Lewis Ngara.
The Zimbabwean-born artiste is planning to return home and host a series of shows with local gospel artistes.
While abroad, he dominated the Radio Zimbabwe 'Coca-Cola Top 20' with his debut 'Ndisiye Ndisiye'.
Lewis went on to produce a gem of an album titled Take by Force (Kutora Neginya).
Other songs on the album include 'Spoti spoti', 'No turning back', 'Team UK-Vana Mavaziva Here?', 'Komborera Mafaro' and 'Inyasha DzaMwari'.
The Soul Rejuvenators Crew frontman, who is a PhD holder, has grown significantly and is now finding it difficult to balance work and music.
His music has been a source of inspiration to many, especially to those facing challenges in life.
The song 'Kutora Neginya', which has a traditional contemporary feel, encourages people to be aggressive and not give up in their various pursuits.
The song 'Spoti Spoti', derived from a childhood game, shows how the musician has remained attached to the motherland.
The inclusion of a saxophone in the song makes it a catchy piece.
His videos are mostly dominated by African dances and dressing from Zulu, Xhosa to Nigerian cultures.
The former teacher plays around with his voice to suit the genre he would be playing.
The jiti flavour in some of his songs is influenced by his wife Tau who hails from Murehwa, the home of mbende and jiti music.
The 'Ndisiye Ndisiye' hitmaker was born in Mhondoro, Chegutu District and trained as a primary school teacher at Nyadire Teacher's College, Mutoko.
He taught at various urban and rural schools.
His music career started at Sunday school and eventually the school and church choirs.
His musical skills were further enhanced at Nyadire Teachers' College where he got classical music lessons.
His albums to date include Ndirimukundi, Rega Zvikurirane and singles 'Ndisiye Ndisiye' and 'Ndafunga Kwedu KuZimbabwe'.
He has worked with prominent producers who include Macelo and Gibson Makumbe.

Congress party's GRAND PLAN with Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party explained clearly in this video.

3. DNA article from 2009 - http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-...
Is the creation of AAP a congress game plan handled and promoted by its agents like Yogendra Yadav?
If yes, obviously Arvind Kejriwal must know about it. Why is he going along with the plan knowing everything? What is his agenda?
These are very important questions for which India needs to know the answers.

Tummy Tuck / Abdominoplasty In Gainesville, FL
Abdominoplasty, also known as a tummy tuck, is routinely performed by Dr. Tyrone at his Gainesville, Florida Plastic Surgery practice. Candidates for abdominoplasty are those patients with excess skin and fat of their abdomen. An abdominoplasty involves three basic surgical components: skin and fatty tissue excision, liposuction, and muscle repair. The extent of each of these parts will be individualized for you. During abdominoplasty surgery, the excess skin and fat from the abdomen are removed, the underlying separation of the rectus muscles ("rectus diastasis") is repaired to tighten the waistline and excess fat is removed by a combination of direct excision and liposuction. Every effort is made to keep the resultant scar concealed in a patient's undergarment.
Tummy Tuck Case Study
Patient is a 33 Year Old, 5 Feet 2 Inches and 175 pounds with a history of gastric sleeve and massive weight loss. She underwent a standard abdominoplasty with diastasis repair.
Individual results may vary.Schedule Consultation View Before & After Gallery
Tummy Tuck Abdominoplasty
An abdominoplasty is usually an outpatient procedure performed at Dr. Tyrone's ambulatory surgery facility located in Gainesville, Florida. Our convenient location allows Dr. Tyrone to perform tummy tuck surgery on patients from not only Gainesville and Alachua county, but all of north Florida including Ocala, Jacksonville, and the surrounding counties.
Dedication to Our Patients
Dr. Tyrone understands that the decision to undergo an abdominoplasty is an important one, and he knows the importance of educating you before, during and after the procedure. He firmly believes the most informed patients are also the most comfortable, confident and satisfied patients. Several before-and-after abdominoplasty patient photographs are available on this website. Additional photographs are available for viewing in the office.
Please contact our cosmetic plastic surgery practice in Gainesville, Florida to schedule an abdominoplasty / tummy tuck, liposuction or body contouring consultation with Dr. John Tyrone. We serve all of north Florida including Gainesville, Ocala, Jacksonville, Lake City and surrounding areas.
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) Surgery Frequently Asked Questions
Good candidates for abdominoplasty include women and men who have excess skin and fat concentrated in their lower abdomen. This is frequently the result of significant weight loss or post-pregnancy changes. Frequently, patients have a midline bulge that is a result of separation of the abdominal muscles. This is often seen in women after pregnancy and will be addressed at the time of your surgery. Patients seeking abdominoplasty frequently have excess fat in other areas besides their abdomen. Many of these areas (hips and flanks) can be safely addressed by liposuction at the time of abdominoplasty.
Dr. Tyrone will then carefully examine the areas of your body that concern you. Your excess abdominal skin and fat will be assessed. Your abdominal muscles will be carefully examined to assess whether or not you would benefit from a muscle repair or tightening during your abdominoplasty. Proposed incisions will be demonstrated to you. Dr. Tyrone encourages you to ask any questions during your consultation. A surgical plan will then be proposed based on the information gathered during your consultation. Following your consultation, you will meet with Dr. Tyrone's patient coordinator, to discuss scheduling your surgery and answer any questions you may have forgotten to ask Dr. Tyrone.
Abdominoplasty surgery is not an exact science. Although the majority of women experience no complications, potential risks and complications of abdominoplasty surgery will be discussed at the time of your consultation. Prior to undergoing abdominoplasty surgery with Dr. Tyrone, it is important for you to fully understand the risks and potential complications associated with your procedure.
You will receive a list of medications (i.e. aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) to avoid for 14 days prior to your tummy tuck surgery with Dr. Tyrone. Additionally, though there is no scientific proof that certain medications reduce bruising, swelling and pain after abdominoplasty surgery, you will be asked to obtain Arnica Montana, Bromelain and Vitamin A pills to take prior to and after your procedure. Finally, the night before surgery, shower and wash as you would normally and do not eat or drink after midnight.
During a full abdominoplasty, as opposed to a mini-abdominoplasty, the belly button is left attached to the abdominal wall and brought out through a new opening after the excess skin has been removed. The location of your belly button does not change. It is impossible to know exactly where your scar will lie and to know the exact length of your scar prior to your operation. Scars will be discussed in detail prior to your operation. This is because the final adjustments to the scar including location and length are made during the operation. Every effort will be made to leave you with as fine a scar as possible by suturing not only the skin at the time of your operation but also repairing the deeper fascia (superficial fascial system) of the abdominal wall. By repairing the deeper layers of the abdominal wall, tension on the skin repair is minimized. Scars will be discussed in detail prior to your operation. Dr. Tyrone will also instruct you on how to optimize the appearance of your scars after surgery. Dr. Tyrone will make every effort to leave a scar that can be concealed in your undergarments. It is important to remember that scars often get worse before they get better. Most scars undergo a period of time where they are swollen and red typically 4-8 weeks after surgery before they begin to settle.
When you arrive at the North Florida Plastic Surgery for your tummy tuck surgery with Dr. Tyrone, you will check in and be escorted to the surgery suite. Dr. Tyrone and his nurses will meet with you prior to your surgery.
If Dr. Tyrone feels a hospital is a more appropriate setting for your surgery, he has full privileges at several local hospitals including Shands UF.
You may shower on the second day after surgery. Drains are typically removed 7-10 days after the operation, Your incisions will be supported by steristrips or surgical tape for 4-6 weeks. As discussed, scars tend to get worse initially and then fade over time. Dr. Tyrone will discuss how to care for your incisions. You may resume aerobic activities after three weeks but should refrain from abdominal exercises or heavy lifting for six weeks.
Dr. Tyrone is available at all times through his Gainesville office should a problem arise. Abdominoplasty and tummy tuck surgery patients are typically seen the day after their surgery, and one week later.

RE: Adult
Hello! My question is about penalties (law 14). It says 'The defending goalkeeper must remain on the goal line <...>' What does this exactly means? Can he stand a little ahead of the goal line, just touching it with his heels? Can he lean forward? Can he make a step with one foot, remaining other foot at the goal line? Where I can find explanation of this 'remain on the goal line' terminology in FIFA Laws of the Game? Thanks
Hi Nik There is no detailed explanation other than what it says in your quote and the referees interpretation. For all referees it is understood that the goalkeeper must have any part of both feet touching any part of the goalline. The goalkeeper can be leaning forward or in any direction. In reality referees and assistants are somewhat generous to goalkeepers at penalty kicks and at speed it is not so easy to be precise about the exact position of the goalkeepers feet at the moment of the kick. Many referees will allow a little movement forward as long as it is not excessive. To save a decent penalty kick there has to be some movement and goalkeepers know that they have to be on the move at or just before the kick. Having said that most penalties that are missed are poorly taken so movement is not the key factor but rather direction and poor strength of kick. Now I notice in the World Cup a tightening up of encroachment and I suspect that Video Assistant Referee technology is assisting here as a referee could review encroachment on a missed penalty. Players have been told this from the reactions I have seen so far. I watched the Lionel Messi penalty closely and if there was encroachment it was insignificant and therefore seen as trifling and doubtful. The same on the Peru missed penalty. Neither side could have any complaint about those misses. It will be interesting when we get to Kicks from the Penalty Mark later in the tournament.
Hi Nik, You will not find any detailed explanation in the IFAB's Laws of the Game as to what the phrase ''must remain on the goal line'' means exactly - or various other phrases, for that matter. This is where the wording in Law 5 comes in, which says that: ''Decisions will be made to the best of the referee's ability according to the Laws of the Game and the 'spirit of the game' and will be based on the opinion of the referee who has the discretion to take appropriate action within the framework of the Laws of the Game.'' So basically it's up to the referee to decide how to interpret the law. It's certainly true that as ref McHugh mentions, most referees seem to have a somewhat liberal interpretation of what constitutes 'remaining on the line' and will allow a certain amount of forward motion to occur without penalising it. I have also noticed that in the current World Cup, referees seem to be issuing strict instructions to the players before each penalty kick, to abide by the restrictions on encroachment, both for outfield players and goalkeepers.
Typically it is well understood amongst the referee community, that the keeper must have both feet on the goal line until the ball is kicked. The other time this will come in the play is for indirect free kick's in the penalty area that are closer than 10 yards from the goal line. The defending team can be on the goal line between the posts if they wish. But once again both feet must be on the goal line until the ball is been kicked.
HI NIk, the goal line is a 5 inch wide line, a size 13 boot is likely over 12 inches long so if a tip of toe to edge of back line or from heel to front edge we have a 28 to 36 inch spread of a legally taken keeper position between the pipes and under the crossbar where a portion of his foot is in contact with a portion of the goal line! A keeper is denied the right to move off his goal line UNTIL the ball is kicked & moved . However in the kicking motion there is a brief transition state of the ball leaving the foot as the keeper tries to time his outward movement. SO a step out towards the ball as it is leaving the foot is generally permitted! It has been obvious to me so far the referees are communicating PK procedures directly to the players/keepers on the FOP as per the pregame discussion held in advance of this World CUP. There was a directive to clamp down on the excessive movement of players encroaching into the PK area as well as the keeper coming off his line too early. Despite this directive it is still ITOOTR as to whether there is encroachment or not! If it is significant the call needs to be made as per the LOTG directive! However, if it is deemed uncertain or as trifling or doubtful where in the opinion of the referee the result is fair & just it can be accepted . Cheers

Two years ago, in collaboration with the Wood Competence Center in Linz, Austria, WACKER started developing new processing aids for wood-polymer materials. These wood plastic composites consist of about 50 to 75 percent refined wood fibers and up to 25 to 50 percent of a polymer such as polyethylene, polypropylene or polyvinyl chloride. These plastics look similar to wood materials and have a similar feel. Thanks also to their durability and processing flexibility, they present an attractive alternative to normal plastics or wood for the construction, furniture and automotive industries.
To enable the wood-polymer components to bond optimally to each other in extrusion molding and to keep the resistance in the extrusion process as low as possible, additives are incorporated as lubricants. By developing new GENIOPLAST® additives for wood plastic composites, WACKER can now offer highly effective processing aids, whose many positive properties give them a competitive edge over comparable products.
The new additives contain a thermoplastic silicone elastomer. In comparison with conventional silicones, which cure irreversibly following vulcanization, thermoplastic silicones behave thermoplastic also within a certain range of temperatures. This makes them ideally suited as processing aids for thermoplastics with organic fillers.
GENIOPLAST® additives for wood plastic composites primarily act as lubricants. They reduce the coefficient of friction of the plastic and thereby the internal and external friction during extrusion. This enables the processes to run more stably and efficiently and save more energy. Tests show that one percent of the additive gives a significantly higher throughput – depending on the plastic blend and extruder used by between 15 and 25 percent. This leads in turn to lower unit costs in production.
The additives are also highly effective: even one percent is sufficient to achieve good lubricating properties. In comparison, conventional lubricants require WPC manufacturers to use between two and six percent of additive to achieve the same effect during extrusion.
GENIOPLAST® WPC additives can be blended easily as the thermoplastic silicone elastomer is already premixed with the corresponding plastic. This preformulated ready-to-use mixture enables the lubricant to be optimally integrated in the production process. At present, formulations with polypropylene (GENIOPLAST® PP 20A08) and polyethylene (GENIOPLAST® HDPE 20A03) are available.
GENIOPLAST® additives for wood plastic composites not only improve the production process, but also the properties of the end product. Wood-based plastics manufactured with the new processing aid have higher impact strength and flexural toughness than parts mixed with standard additives. GENIOPLAST® PP 20A08 and GENIOPLAST® HDPE 20A03 also reduce water absorption. The end products are consequently significantly more resistant to weathering.
Wood plastic composites are currently right on trend. They combine the positive properties of the natural product wood with the benefits of plastics. Whether they are used for decking boards, siding, fencing, windows, doors, furniture, parts for vehicle interiors or technical components – there is now a huge range to choose from. Thanks to their resistance and processing flexibility, wood-plastic materials offer an attractive alternative to unreinforced plastics for the construction, furniture and automotive industry. Wood-based plastics can be machined using all common woodworking machinery and can be worked with a great deal of freedom of design.

Is 'The Bye Bye Man' Horror's Next Icon?
There's no denying that being branded as an iconic character of horror is a difficult thing to do–especially these days. Monsters like Michael Myers, Jason Voorheese, Pinhead, Freddy Krueger, and Leatherface have worn the title for years, but it's been tough for modern filmmakers to create a character that sticks. Maybe Victor Crowley or Bagul, but even that is a stretch. Could Stacy Title's THE BYE BYE MAN be the next iconic Halloween costume that we 20 years from now? Hell, maybe. We don't get the greatest look at the film's antagonist in the debut trailer, but probably not.
The film is coming to us from STX who have recently released The Gift, The Boy, and Hardcore Henry–so we're dealing with some tasteful cats. Here's to hoping THE BYE BYE MAN is able to make the most of the recent boom that indie horror seems to be experiencing. Check out the debut trailer below, and let us know what you think.
THE BYE BYE MAN hit theaters on June 3rd, 2016.

Foggy Days.../
on-color days of grey, white, fog with tiny bits of color. Took a short walk this morning. Happy that my knee allowed this little walk and I got these great photos. The lake is starting to look like slush. Granted it is probably a foot or so of slush but it appears that no one is out there. But then I probably could not see them if they were.

Tuesday, it ends.
The legacy.
The comfort of knowing there always seemed to be a Caldwell catching passes for the Gators.
Tuesday, it ends.
The legacy.
The comfort of knowing there always seemed to be a Caldwell catching passes for the Gators.
For the past nine years, there has only been one lull in the Caldwell Era. In 2002, Andre was a senior in high school and Reche had left early for the NFL. But with that one exception, one of the brothers has been a big part of Florida football.
�It's a neat legacy,� Bubba Caldwell said. �Reche made a path for me. It was great to have someone to look up to. But it's time to move on to bigger and better things.�
Bubba will leave Florida as the school's all-time leading receiver. For five seasons, he has been a part of the program.
It seems like he just got to Gainesville.
�It went by real fast,� he said. �It seems like I just got here, trying to learn the offense.�
But so much has happened since then.
For one, Bubba Caldwell grew up.
It wasn't supposed to be like this. He figured he'd be just like his brother, three-and-out. That was before he suffered a broken leg against Tennessee and had to sit out most of the 2005 season. That was before he struggled to become the player he was before the injury in 2006.
That was before the summer of 2007.
It was then that everything changed.
�Over the summer,� said center Drew Miller, �there was a complete transformation.�
He had been something of a follower. Dallas Baker and Jemalle Cornelius were the leaders of the wide receivers during the national championship run. Caldwell was never without an opinion, which is one reason we in the media will miss him.
Maybe that's why the transition was seamless. When Caldwell talks, the players know he's not giving them cliches or coach-speak. If he says this is what needs to be done, they buy into it.
So when he took over the leadership role in the summer after Baker and Cornelius were gone, they listened.
�I thank him after every game for what he's done for me,� said UF receiver Percy Harvin. �I'm going to miss him. Even when I first got here, I didn't know the plays but he'd always tell me to go hard. You're better off making mistakes going full speed. He really taught me how to work hard.�
We see what the players do on the field, but it is not on the field where leadership is born. It is during grueling workouts when nobody is watching, when a fifth-year senior steps up and runs one more sprint or catches one more pass and everyone falls in line.
�It's the off-season where you become a leader,� said receiver coach Billy Gonzales. �He has been an unbelievable leader for me this year.�
That includes the classroom, where Caldwell earned a degree. He never figured he'd be in school long enough for that to happen.
It's what Aldous Huxley meant when he wrote, �Experience is not what happens to
you; it's what you do with what happens to you.�
He has been through plenty of experiences, even an early season injury this year. Now, he prepares to play in his final game as a Gator armed with a gaudy resume of living that includes a college degree.
�Graduating, that was a grateful moment for me,� he said.
So many catches, so many big plays. But the one that sticks out was his first.
Florida vs. San Jose State, 2003. Caldwell was a wide-eyed freshman who was part of Ron Zook's first big recruiting class.
�It was the first catch of my career,� he said. �I caught a pass over the middle, running around not knowing what I was doing. I got hit on the sidelines and my helmet flew off and everything. That's one I'll never forget.�
There have been 180 catches since that first one and one more game to add to his record. One more game to see a Caldwell making plays at the University of Florida. Then it's over.
For Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, who grew up watching Reche make plays and threw plenty of passes to Bubba, next year will be a similar feeling withdrawal to what the Gator Nation will be feeling.
�I guess it will be weird,� Tebow said. �But I think what will really be weird is not having Bubba around in the weight room, always hearing Bubba talking.�
I guess there is irony in the fact that we are finally seeing Caldwell at his best just when it is about to end. In his last four games, he has 37 catches for 471 yards.
With a new class of receivers coming in, how much he'll be missed on the field is debatable.
But off the field, there's no doubt.
�I'll miss him a tremendous amount,� Gonzales said.
The Gator Nation gets one more game to enjoy No. 5.
One more day with a Caldwell.

Money talks.
Celtic are still basking in the glow of their latest financial results as the club posted a whopping profit of £19million earlier this week after increasing their revenue to £61.2million - a massive 95 per cent increase over the previous six months.
The Hoops' rivals will be green with envy as it emerged on Tuesday they are set to land a further £6m for their endeavours in Europe.
With European football on a yearly basis plus a host of big-money assets, there is no reason to believe Celtic's dominance of Scottish football is going to end anytime soon.
Brendan Rodgers' side showed signs of quality in this season's Champions League - but they didn't win a game and were humbled 7-0 against Barcelona in their opening group match.
Domestic success is all well and good but Rodgers is fully aware he will be judged from afar by what he achieves with Celtic in Europe.
Not since the halcyon days of Martin O'Neill have Celtic spent big bucks on recruiting players - but they look poised to splash the cash in the summer due to the hike in the club's coffers.
Record Sport Online looks at three players Celtic could target in the summer to help their push for European success.
Joe Gomez
The 19-year-old defender looked every inch the star under Rodgers after joining Liverpool from Charlton in 2015 but suffered a horrific cruciate injury in November of that year and is still on the road to recovery.
He started his first game for the Reds since his return against Plymouth earlier this year, but current boss Jurgen Klopp looks set to stick with Joel Matip and recruit a new central defender in the summer.
Gomez would cost some serious cash, he's young, under contract until 2022 and English players normally see their value increase due to the big money involved in the Premier League.
Rodgers knows the England youth international well, and while a loan move was mooted last month, a permanent deal would be a real signal of intent for the Scottish champions if his he fails to make the grade at Anfield.
Would Joe Gomez be a good signing for Celtic?
Lars Stindl
Rodgers was able to watch Stindl up close and personal during their two clashes with Monchengladbach in the Champions League this season.
The secondary striker scored in both matches against Celtic and he was a constant menace with his clever runs into the box - and has netted nine goals this season.
Under O'Neill, the Hoops were close to signing former Bayer Leverkusen and Turkey playmaker Yildiray Basturk who played in similar role to Stindl in their quest for Champions League gains.
Tom Rogic occupied that role in this season's group stage but a player like Stindl could be the key to unlocking a pathway to the last 16 of the tournament.
The 28-year-old former Germany youth international is contracted until 2020 and cost £2.55million from Hannover in 2015.
Would Lars Stindl be a good signing for Celtic?
Michel Vorm
Vorm is arguably the best back-up goalkeeper in the Premier League.
Rodgers brought the Holland international to English football when he signed him for Swansea in 2011.
He joined Tottenham in 2014, and is currently the No.2 behind French star Hugo Lloris.
He's the luxury version of Dorus de Vries, a sweeper-keeper who starts attacks from the back but can also make the big saves with his superior agility.
Vorm has 18 caps for Holland, but could benefit from regular football if he wants to add to those in the coming years.
The 33-year-old will have 12 months left on his contract this summer.

There actually exists a guitar/bass custom originally meant for Clone Hero here:
However, the "guitar" part is a mix of Keys and Guitar, and the bass part is half done.
Hopefully, someone will be able to fill in the blanks of the other parts.

Owned and operated by Sean Fowler, a Raleigh native whose pedigree includes stints at New York's Le Bernadin and Fearrington House, where we had enjoyed dinner the night before, it was minutes early for a 7:00pm reservation that we arrived at Mandolin and dropping my mother off at the door before allocating parking behind the restaurant she was already seated at a plush four-top when I walked-in, the dining room surprisingly sparse for a Friday night but soon to fill to perhaps 75% capacity with a crowd of locals enjoying relief from a week of ice and snow.
Lowly lit and decorated in blonde wood with black and white photos, jars of pickles, and the restaurant's eponymous instrument filling space on walls and shelves it was with light music playing overhead and light gleaming from the kitchen that our server approached and describing the restaurant's "refined Southern" style with focus on local protein and produce selected daily by the Chefs it was with two shared specialties described that we were left to decide, a hand mixed herbal cocktail of bright citrus and spice soon delivered over a whole lot of crushed ice.
Sensing our 'first time visitor' status and offering recommendations based on classics as well as dishes he felt to show the seasonal menu best it was eventually a three-course meal that was ordered, the first arriving alongside bread service that featured the city's best cornbread and house-churned honey butter that immediately necessitated a second round, the soft dinner roll held over and later used to sop up bacon-imbued sauce.
Featuring a surprisingly large amount of duck, no less than four plates featuring the farm-raised fowl sourced from a farm 'just up the road,' round one of the menu featured two sizable portions of protein and with the saporous sausage finding plenty of balance in aromatic, chunky marmalade alongside toasty blackened bread the salad was even more impressive, a large and crisp leg of confit duck served over greens, several varieties of beets, winter citrus, and blue cheese all melded by a light splash of acidic vinaigrette.
Admittedly surprised by the portions considering the relatively low prices for such a 'fine-dining' space it was after a somewhat lengthy delay that mains would arrive and targeting two more plates of bird one would be hard pressed to levy a single complaint against either, the lightly seared duck rich and fatty atop the liver infused grains while the Chef's signature chicken was well brined and impeccably crisp with naturally truffled honey adding just a touch of sweetness to the otherwise strongly savory accoutrements.
Unable and unwilling to pass on dessert, particularly with a menu featuring two personal favorites, it was again after a bit of respite that a trio arrived and paired with a much needed double-espresso over ice it was only the overworked carrot cake which was far too potent with ginger that failed to shine, the mason jar of banana pudding as light as a feather with crisp cookies juxtaposing Chantilly while the Caramel Cake and tangy ice cream more than lived up to its description as "divine."

Our team was hired to prune grapes at a small, private vineyard in January of this year. The client is one of our weekly maintenance properties and he was having trouble finding the 50 hours each winter to put into pruning the grapes. It was an exciting day with 5 of our winter crew all working together to get the job completed. A good experience for all.
Grapes are in that category of pruning that seems daunting for many people. Roses and fruit trees seem to fall into that category as well. We decided to make a video outlining the approach for this particular variety of grape. Different varieties all require a different approach but Ortega is a very common white wine grape for Victoria, British Columbia so this may be applicable to many of you at home who have grape vines.
Enjoy the video! If you have requests for anything else that you might want to see covered on this blog then let me know.
