Juanita Broaddrick, who now runs a nursing-home business in Arkansas, told the Wall Street Journal that Mr Clinton raped her in the Camelot Hotel in Little Rock in 1978, when he was the state attorney-general.
The newspaper reports that Mr Clinton persuaded Mrs Broaddrick to have coffee with him in her hotel room during a conference of nursing home administrators in 1978. She alleges that he then forced her on to the bed, where he held her down, bit her lips and raped her.
When it was over, Mrs Broaddrick claims, Mr Clinton told her that she should not worry because he was sterile due to a bout of childhood mumps.
Let's check a calendar. Bill raped a woman in 1978 and said she couldn't get pregnant because he was sterile. Chelsea Clinton was born February 27, 1980… two years later.
While Bill was raping women in hotel rooms, rumors were spreading that Hillary was having an affair with Webster Hubbell, a law partner at the firm where Hillary worked at that time.
I'm sure Chelsea has figured out by now who her real dad is… isn't it time everyone else did?

UFC fight Night cards aren't usually the most stacked events the promotion puts on due to the fact they are aired free on Spike TV rather than on pay-per-view, but for UFN 24 on March 26th they've stepped up their game with some star power and solid match-ups on display.
The headline fight was originally supposed to feature Tito Ortiz, but after a training room injury talented up and comer Phil Davis, who produced four straight wins in the Octagon in 2010, steps in to take on the veteran Antonio Rogerio Nogueira who has lost only one of his last eight fights.
The co-main event is also a worthy one as former No.1 contender Dan Hardy looks to arrest a two fight losing streak against the hard-hitting Anthony Johnson who's returning after well over a year on the sidelines due to injury.
Both Duane 'Bang' Ludwig and Amir Sadollah love to show off their Muay-Thai skills, and the two welterweights will get a chance to do just that when they face each other on the main card of the UFN 24 card.
Finally the main card is rounded out by a rematch of the Leonard Garcia Vs Nam Phan fight from the tail end of last year at the TUF 13 finale which Garcia won by decision even though most people watching were convinced Phan had done enough. Now they'll meet once again in a bid to prove once and for all who the better fighter is.
See the full fight card for the event which takes in Seattle, Washington below.
Main Card:
- Phil Davis vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira
- Dan Hardy vs. Anthony Johnson
- Amir Sadollah vs. Duane Ludwig
- Leonard Garcia vs. Nam Phan
- Alex "Bruce Leroy" Caceres vs. Mackens Semerzier
- Jon Madsen vs. Mike Russow
- John Hathaway vs. Kris McCray
- Nick Pace vs. Michael McDonald
- Sean McCorkle vs. Christian Morecraft
- Mario Miranda vs. Aaron Simpson

At least 17 people were injured in a wild shootout at a park in New Orleans on Sunday evening.
Hundreds of people had gathered at the Bunny Friend Playground in the city's 9th ward to celebrate a block party and music video shoot.
When an altercation broke out between two groups of people, gunfire ensued.
Multiple people were transported via ambulance to local hospitals.
New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu called on the public to help with the investigation. "It's going to require the people who were in this park to basically say they've had enough and they're not going to put themselves in harm's way and give us information so that the police can do their job," the mayor said.
The violence comes amid a dramatic reduction in police resources in New Orleans. The city's police force has shrunk to under 1,200 officers while they should be staffed at closer to 1,600, per the WSJ.

When it comes to choosing what goes on your grill, think beyond the burger this summer.
Cooking out is a great way to spend more time outside, and it offers a range of options for eating healthy. Try this protein-packed and heart-healthy salmon recipe next time you fire up the grill.
1 lime, juiced
2 cups honey
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
4 salmon steaks
salt and pepper as needed to taste
- Over medium heat, stir cilantro, garlic, honey and lime juice in a small saucepan. Heat for about 5 minutes until easily stirred. Remove marinade from heat and cool slightly.
- In a baking dish, season salmon with salt and pepper, then cover with marinade and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
- Before grilling, oil your grill grate so the fish doesn't stick. After placing marinated salmon on the grill, cook for five minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

As I drove my teenage nephew to his doc appointment last week, I confessed my attempts at doing a somersault in the water. Noah has been taking surf lessons for PE, something I'm sure has been equally challenging for him since he's always gravitated toward skim boarding. But this year, he's experienced a breakthrough in the water. His advice, "You've just got to commit to it Auntie." I let that one sink in with a proud inner beam. He sounded so mature all of the sudden. (And I resisted the urge to throw that back in his face over homework.)
Last weekend, I practiced somersaults in the living room – much to the amusement of the kitty. I was rusty. You'd never know I practiced Aikido and Kenpo.
Then Kristen met me a couple of days ago to help me out. I made progress, I have to say – even if I didn't come full circle. I warmed up with some no-breathers to get my confidence up. Wow, I can go pretty far (for me) without breathing – 2/3 of the pool. I practiced bobbing. I practiced bobbing and motioning my arms. (More coaching from Shelly, the lifeguard, from the deck.) I tried doing arm stands. But my body didn't like that at all. No way. Kristen tried flipping me over a couple of times. Yeah, nice try girl! My big bug-a-boo is apparently not wanting to be upside down. So, like a good shrink, Kristen practiced immersion therapy on me. She had me practice just sinking in the water upside down. I did get a little more comfortable with it. One of these days, I'll get it. Perhaps the third time will be the charm.

Great Article on How to Haggle with Hotels to get a great room at an even better rate.
Bert Archer
From Wednesday's Globe and MailPublished on Tuesday, Jan. 12, 2010 4:21PM ESTLast updated on Thursday, Jan. 14, 2010 2:52AM EST
Have you ever haggled for a
It can be awkward the first couple of times you try it. In North America, prices feel like they're set in stone. But
As veteran travellers know, hotel rates are something of a Russian doll: always something a little smaller hidden inside if you take the time to look. There's the rack rate; nobody pays that. Then there's the seasonal rate, the loyalty rate, the CAA rate, and so on. But these days, I figured you might be able to do better, so I called hotels across the country last week and gave it my best shot.
First, I tried the Royal York in Toronto. I checked online and saw the lowest rate was $179, which seemed pretty good for the Royal York. I called and asked for a better deal. "We can't negotiate prices," the woman said, kindly but firmly. "Are you sure?" I said, possibly lamely. She was sure.
Next I called Le Germain, a boutique hotel, also in downtown Toronto. The man who answered said he had a room for $260. I said that was a little out of my price range. He offered it to me without breakfast for $235. I balked. "Do you work for the government?" he asked. If I did, he could offer me the same room for $199. I made a quip about working for the government part-time – about 40 per cent of the time, in fact – which earned me a little laugh and a littler discount: $10.
A pleasant but icy lady at the Wedgewood, a small, upscale spot in Vancouver with a great restaurant, quoted me $199, including breakfast and valet parking. I used my budget ploy again, but once again, was offered only $10 off. It's something, but there were probably better strategies.
A call to the Wingate by Wyndham in Regina netted me a king smoking room for $119.99. I got stonewalled when I asked for a better price, so I asked to speak to the manager. I got voice mail. I left a message, which was not returned. I tried the same thing at the Sutton Place in Edmonton. Their website's "best rate guaranteed" was $288. I was able to get that down to $228 without any effort at all, but when the clerk held firm there, I asked for the manager, which resulted in another unreturned message.
(I later found out it might be a better idea to ask specifically for the rooms division or front office manager.)
I called the International Hotel Suites in Calgary, where I was quoted $229 for a studio, the same price they advertised online. "I really can't spend more than $200," I said. Did I have a CAA or AAA membership? No, I did not. Did she have any other packages? She clicked the keyboard. "I have a corporate package I can offer you. It's 8 per cent off the best available rate, and that includes breakfast." The total was $210.68. I decided to push, and asked her if she could deduct the price of the breakfast from the room. After putting me on hold for less than a minute, she came back with a rate of $199 without breakfast. "No breakfast?" I whined, slightly. "I'll give you a favour," she said. "I will give you a complimentary upgrade to our International Business Suite." So instead of a 595-square-foot room with a queen bed for $229, I got an 850-square-foot, two-bedroom suite for $199.
Feeling good, I decided to try the Hazelton, which styles itself as Toronto's first five-star hotel. The best rate quoted online was $350. On the phone, asking for their best rate, it became $360, plus tax and a $9.50 communications fee, for a 600-square-foot deluxe king. "I'm sorry, but that's really more than I was hoping to pay," I said. Out came a 500-square-foot superior king for $295. "My budget was actually $275," I ventured. She couldn't go any lower, but when I persisted, she offered me an upgrade back to that original deluxe room at the superior rate, a $65 discount.
The scorecard: Five out of six hotels were ready to deal, and three offered me substantial discounts. What does this say about the state of hotels? "It's a sign of desperation," says Gabor Forgacs, an assistant professor at Ryerson University's Ted Rogers School of Hospitality and Tourism Management. "There used to be some kind of minimum rate that they called the hurdle rate, and nothing could go under that – but these days, even that's not carved in stone."
Forgacs suggests you'll have more luck with large hotels than small, and airport hotels rather than downtown ones. If you hit a wall, as I did at the Royal York, he suggests asking for freebies instead: breakfast, parking, papers, Wi-Fi.
None of these phone calls, it should be noted, lasted longer than five minutes. If you're not locked into a plan, chances are you can do better than you've been doing.

How to get a cheap rate
* Try large hotels. It's harder to rent 1,000 rooms a night than 50.
* Airport hotels cater primarily to business travellers; business travel is way down. Do the math.
* Call last-minute. According to Professor Ted Whykes at Royal Roads University's hotel program, it's all about "the perishability of the product." An empty room at 3 a.m. is worthless.
* If the person who picks up the phone can't deal, ask for a rooms division or front office manager.
* Be aware of any memberships you have to organizations such as CAA and the Canadian Association of Retired Persons and ask if the hotels offer discounts.
* Ask for a package deal, and then ask to unpack it. If the package includes breakfast, ask for the value of the meal to be deducted from the rate.
* If the price won't budge, ask for an upgrade.
* After you've finished, always ask for frills to be free. Today, there's no reason to pay for breakfast, parking or Wi-Fi.

A few months after moving in together in 2008, in our derelict one-bedroom on Spring Garden above our basement-dwelling neighbor who yelled sporadically throughout the day and night, John and I decided to get a cat. She favored men (and therefore John), but was snuggly enough with me too, and instantly made our apartment feel more like a home.
I didn't want to write about this, but I'm weak when it comes to dealing with death, and getting it all out in a poorly-edited blog post is better than mentioning it in passing to friends and family. Maybe this way, I can warn you what not to say ("I'm sorry" – honestly, does this ever make anyone feel better? And what do I even say in response…"it's okay?") Maybe this way, I can be a little more eloquent in sharing what she meant to me, because in person, I'll just grumble about cars speeding on our road and say I knew it was coming, eventually. I did know, but knowing doesn't do anything to prepare you for the inevitable.
John and I had just finished breakfast on Monday, the day after I got back from a week in Nurnberg and dropped my grandmother and mom off at the guest house. I was drinking Wawa's Pumpkin Spice coffee and thinking back to when John and I would get in our car and drive the half-mile to the gas station for our daily fall fix. Then, our neighbor knocked at the door.
"Is this your cat?"
I'd sort of written her off as a crazy cat lady, as her backyard (visible from our house) is always a mess, and she always has strays roaming around. But when I saw how upset she was, holding a limp and lifeless Zora in her hands, I realized that I'm a crazy cat lady too, and in no place to judge. Zora was always running into the street, with her no-fear attitude and penchant for rolling around on the curb and getting dirty in the sunshine. I don't know how many times I heard cars honking, thinking "shit, Zora," and shaking my head in disapproval at her careless behavior. But, she's a cat, and she was never happy cooped up in our tiny flat. We knew we were taking a risk letting her roam outside, but her palpable happiness as she pranced around in the garden, and on that busy street, somehow made it worth it. At least that's what I'm telling myself, to avoid playing "What if?" over and over in my head and wishing we kept her confined to our small quarters.
I want to fast forward a few months, hoping to lighten this burden, this loss. There's nothing I can do to feel better right now, and it's hard, and it sucks. That's about as eloquent as I can be. I've lost pets before, and I know others who have shared this experience can relate (what a weird concept, by the way- losing a person or animal. I didn't misplace them; they died).
Maybe I can just take comfort in knowing that everything dies eventually, or breaks, and that fact doesn't take away the good memories that were created along the way. Zora was family, and I'll always miss her, but I'm glad we had 6 years together. They were good ones.

Daddy is home | Norfolk Maternity Photographer
When I photographed this mama-to-be for the first time, her husband was deployed for most of her pregnancy and for the birth of their little boy. This time, I was so excited when she said that he would actually be home for the maternity portraits and hopefully for the birth as well!
Top 12 of 12 ~ Birth Photography | Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Hampton Roads Birth Photographer
Birth is an intimate thing. And every time I am invited into a woman's birthing space, I am in awe. In awe of the power, the strength, and the love. In our culture, giving birth has become something that women don't often share with others; it is something that we almost feel the need to hide because it is 'yucky' or 'gross'. But I see birth as a beautiful, natural, & amazing process.
A woman in labor is a fierce warrior. She is more powerful, yet more vulnerable than ever. And in the end, when her baby is born, there is so much love that surrounds her and her family. It is the love that I strive to capture with every birth I photograph. The love of a new life. The love of a new family. When people ask me, "Why would you want to photograph THAT?", I simply smile to myself. Because anyone who asks that question has never seen the raw emotion that can be captured at the labor and delivery of a new baby. Capturing that first glimpse of life, the first breath of a newly born baby, the first time a mother or father holds their child, the triumph of a woman bringing a child into the world on her own terms....that is birth photography.
Enjoy some of my favorite captures from births in 2012. I hope you can feel the moment along with me.
And a personal first for the year (so it's a fave of mine) - a self-portrait right before being allowed in after a c-section for the very first time!

Rev. Susan Chorley Speaks at SFBC in February, 2017
Rev. Susan Chorley will share her own story as a mother who has had an abortion when she speaks at Seattle First Baptist at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, February 22. An ordained Baptist minister, Rev. Chorley has long connections with SFBC - she was a Companis Worker and a youth worker here. She is the co-founder of Exhale, an organization that addresses the emotional health and wellbeing of women and men after abortion by providing and promoting emotional support across a dynamic landscape of private and public spaces, online and offline.
Susan, who recently shared her story in Parents Magazine, will speak about the experience of her family (son Franz and ex-husband Frank) and their feelings of being abandoned and shamed. She leads a movement beyond politics to share the stories of those who have had this experience in the hope that people will "feel they can bring their whole selves to church."
Rev. Chorley recently spoke at First Baptist Church in Salt Lake City. Pastor Curtis Price had these comments:
"Rev. Chorley's honest reflection and willingness to be vulnerable is a testament to her faith and to how much she believes that the church can and will be a place where women can turn to receive love, support, nurture and acceptance for women who have had abortions. She calls us in the church to live into our highest ideals by demonstrating to us what grace looks like and how it has been her salvation, but also how the church has, at times, failed to be there when needed the most. Susan's gift for preaching and powerful message make a lasting impact on anyone who comes to hear what the spirit is saying through her."
More information about Exhale is available at their website: https://exhaleprovoice.org
Another personal story...
Rev. Dr. Amy Butler, the current Senior Minister at The Riverside Church in New York City, also shared a personal story about abortion recently. The following link is to a commentary she wrote that was published in USA Today:

10 Powerful Musicals That Must Be Revived On Broadway Today
As American culture changes over the years, Broadway musicals have adapted to fill the various roles they play in our lives, offering respite from national depression, challenging social commentary and public opinion, and battling societal trends. The most recent Broadway revival of Once on this Island has my wheels turning.
Here are my top 10 musicals Broadway needs to revisit... now.
1. Parade
Gives me chills every time.
It's been 20 years since Jason Robert Brown's Tony Award winning musical, Parade, was first produced on Broadway. Having undergone several incarnations, the heart-wrenching musical returned in 2015 for a one night only performance starring Laura Benanti and Jeremy Jordan.
Amid religious intolerance, political injustice and racial tension, Parade seems more timely than ever.
2. Aida
Heather Headley slayed the game in 2000.
All I'm saying is... Aida starring Cynthia Erivo, 2018?
3. Cabaret
Uncomfortable themes always make for a relevant revival.
Journalist Charles Karel Bouley sums it up brilliantly.
"People torn apart, a country divided by fear and hatred of those that are different; residents blaming immigrants, demagogues rising to power fueled by a media gone mad; gays, jews, blacks, muslims being injured or killed in the name of religion...if it sounds familiar it's because the themes of Cabaret are happening in the USA right this very moment."
I don't care how many times this show is produced - Cabaret is one of the best musicals of all time and deserves an eternal life on Broadway.
4. Showboat
Don't underestimate the power of this musical. Showboat broke ground thematically and artistically when it opened on Broadway in 1927, confronting racism in the reaction of characters to a then-illegal interracial marriage.
5. Dogfight
Let Derek Klena rip your heart out with "Come Back."
Dogfight only had a brief stint off-Broadway in 2012, and I think its time for a comeback on the Great White Way.
The writers? Benj Pasek and Justin Paul... the very lyricists behind the Golden Globe and Academy Award winning song of the year, "City of Stars," and masterminds of current Broadway hit Dear Evan Hansen.
6. In The Heights
Lin Manuel Miranda's pride and joy,In The Heights, opened on Broadway in 2008, revolutionizing what we know as modern musical theatre.
The hip-hop musical celebrates the universal story of a vibrant community in New York's Washington Heights neighborhood.
7. Bonnie & Clyde
The sexy Laura-Jeremy dynamic duo was short-lived, playing just 36 performances on Broadway. Audiences were enthusiastic about the Frank Wildhorn musical, yet critics blamed the flop for being too clean for the infamous daredevils.
Send it to Sondheim, and let's let's bring Bonnie & Clyde back to Broadway, bolder and bloodier than ever.
8. Next to Normal
My favorite musical of all time.
I saw the original cast of Next To Normal in 2009, and then again towards the end of its run with real-life husband and wife Marin Mazzie and Jason Daniely. I thought perhaps the musical's protagonist, Diana, had no life outside Tony Award winner Alice Ripley... I was wrong.
Bring it back, Broadway.
9. The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Though I don't know the logistics behind Hunchback'sfailed Broadway turn (I blame Trump), I know in my heart of hearts this show would be a smash hit.
10. Carousel
This riveting Rodgers and Hammerstein Golden Age classic deals with the very difficult subject of domestic abuse.
Did YOUR favorite musical make my list?
Comment below with the next show you'd like to see revived on Broadway.

The stupidest thing that you can say when helping someone locate lost keys or a wallet or a phone/
The inability to locate an item like a set of keys, a phone or a wallet can be frustrating.
Thinking it helpful to offer someone advice like "retrace your steps" or "think about when you had it last" only makes the situation worse.
We all know about retracing our steps. This is not some cutting edge strategy. If you want to help us find the lost item, spare us the annoying platitudes and just look around a little.
But the worst piece of advice that you can give in this regard is this:
"It's always the last place that you look."
Of course it's always the last place we look, you moron. Once you find a lost item, only an idiot would continue looking for it.
Therefore, whether the lost item is in the first place that we looked or the thousandth place we looked, it's always going to be the last place we looked.
Is it really so hard to keep your mouth shut and simply help in the search?

Individual Achievement Award
Nigeria: Rita Melifonwu
Rita Melifonwu lobbied the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH) to sign an MOU with Stroke Action Nigeria (SAN) on 30/09/2013 to implement national power to stop strokes campaign incorporating stroke assembly conference; stroke services development including a Nigeria Stroke Reference Group (NSRG), national stroke registry and stroke strategy. She lobbied the Medical Association of Nigerians Across Great Britain (MANSAG) to support the implementation of the MOU. A multi-disciplinary NSRG was inaugurated by President Muhammadu Buhari on 15/09/2015. In recognition of the International WSD Theme, Rita supported and coached two female stroke survivors of working age to become Stroke Ambassadors and members of the NSRG. They were able to overcome the social stigma and cultural barriers that they experience as a result of having stroke related disability to engage in stroke advocacy, stroke policy decision making and peer befriending at their local hospital. Ms Onyinye who is only 30 yrs old opened the 2015 Stroke Assembly by sharing her experience, encouraging citizens to exercise their power to stop strokes and announcing the terms of reference of the NSRG to the Nigerian Public. Her speech has wide media coverage reaching over 100 million Nigerians through radio, television, newspapers and social media.
In Nigeria, stroke affects 168,000 people annually. However, without a stroke registry, we do not have adequate information on the prevalence, economic or social ramifications of stroke in Nigeria. There is no organised stroke care, no formal stroke education for professionals, majority of Nigerians refer to strokes as the effects of witch craft, evil spirit or arrow from God. SAN collaboratively embarked on the national power to stop strokes campaign with the FMOH as an outcome of the MOU. This resulted in several stroke support organisations emerging across Nigeria, a Director of SAN Dr Biodun Ogungbo collaborate with an agency to produce a video - 'Dance with Death' http://developmentdiaries.com/nigeria-group-raise-awareness-on-worldstrokeday/ further raising awareness of stroke to local communities. The NSRG inauguration is the culmination of the evidence that we have the Power to STOP Strokes in Nigeria, supported through Rita Melifonwu's production of the first ever Stroke Handbook for Nigeria published by SAN and launched at the Stroke Assembly on WSD. The NSRG will tackle all facets of stroke " prevention, diagnosis, acute management of stroke victim, secondary prevention and promotion of healthy living through its work streams:
- Strategy
- Education, Training and Research
- Stroke registry
- Standards
- Publicity
Partnership and collaboration are key to effective stroke services development. Participatory governance led to engagement of citizens, government and agencies in change management to
achieve effective joint working with MANSAG, the FMOH and the multi-disciplinary NSRG. The principal objectives of the 22 member NSRG, to which Stroke Action, MANSAG and the FMOH has three representatives each are to:
- Develop a National Stroke Strategy encompassing the principles of prevention, management, rehabilitation, long term care and support for survivors and carers
- Establish National Stroke Registry
- Facilitate Stroke Education and Training for healthcare professionals
- Serve as an advisory body to the Federal Ministry of Health on stroke services
Having stroke survivors and a carer on the NSRG helped us to creatively overcome challenges and barriers experienced with engaging people with disabilities in strategic decision making
processes. Each health and social care professional organisation has a place on the NSRG: Medial, Nursing, Neurological Society, Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Speech and language Therapy, Social work, and, the WSO. The idea of the Power to STOP Strokes Campaign as a vehicle for engaging stakeholders to roll back strokes in Nigeria is in itself innovation as this has never been done before.

This IS going to be a good morning, just have that feeling. Maybe it is because the weatherman last night said we have a 30 percent chance of rain. Trouble is, the higher probability of rain is south of interstate 10. I guess there are some advantages to living closer to the gulf, but I like it up here where I live.
My cousin sent me an email about a lake about an hour from where he lives. He said it is almost at 4000 feet elevation and that makes it the highest lake east of the Mississippi river. There is a really nice hotel with a fabulous restraint beside the lake. That hotel is where most of the movie "Dirty Dancing" was filmed. The lake is almost dry now. Here are a couple of pictures that he sent to me:
He explained the pictures in an email to me. Since he did a great job in explaining his outing I am just going to copy and paste his email here, I don't think he will mind:
"These pictures were taken a year ago, but it looked the same last weekend. There is some kind of shifting geological flapper valve at the bottom of the lake that causes the lake to drain away every 100 years or so. Or someone forgot to jiggle the handle after flushing. Since the hotel by the lake doesn't currently have a lake, they compensated by having the best Sunday buffet in the state. And yes, after my third trip (who's counting?) to the buffet table I was a bit dizzy. I told brother-in-law L--- that we could pack away more food because of the lesser atmospheric pressure, but ran the risk of exploding on the way back down the mountain. So we figured if we chew a pack of gum on the trip down, we'd be OK."
I like the way he writes, don't you? I think that he should start his own blog. Here is a link to Wikipedia that tells also tells about the lake and hotel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_Lake_(Virginia)
You all have a good weekend now, you hear?

I wonder now is it "Free" to advertising products at the immigration post already or is it have to pay there? Coz recently I went to Kuala Lurah and I saw this sticker stick on the booth which we drive through to chop passport one!!! I have no idea what it that thing.... I guess maybe is one of the new engine oil la!! That is a good spot to advertise your products coz everyone pass by here sure guaranty can see you goods... what a brilliant idea! I am so solute who ever is this guy can think this!
So how bout can we put the advertising sign board like the Hwa Hoe or Supasave over there too! or or or can we stick the A4 side paper home made advert on there too??
But any way if one day this place is really open to public for put advertising sure the local big company "SUNLXX" get the tender one la!!!

This dish is simple and tastes really good without being overly sweet. Traditional peach cobbler uses a simple batter of basically flour, butter and sugar and then a super sweet concoction of peaches that's more like a pie filling. Which of course, is delicious.
For this vegan recipe, it translates incredibly well by using coconut oil, honey or agave and almond flour for the batter. Still basic and simple and allows the fruit to shine. The fruit in this recipe is plain with no added sweeteners. You could certainly cut the fruit first and let it sit in a mixture of honey, cinnamon and lemon juice and then top the cobbler and bake and I'm sure that would taste mighty fine. But I was really happy with this slightly cleaner version and I think you will be too. Good for dessert and breakfast! Some other recipes I can't wait to try:
Traditional Peach Cobbler from Allrecipes
Gluten Free Peach Cobbler from King Arthur Flour
Grain Free Blueberry Crisp from Detoxinista, featuring cinnamon and walnuts
Apple, Pear, Blueberry, Crisp from Against All Grain using her recipe for grain free granola
And some tips and variations on my recipe:
Add cinnamon to the batter
Place the fruit on the bottom and then the batter on top- this will make it more like shortbread crust on top
Try doubling the crust and place half on the bottom, then half on top and top that with butter, cinnamon and honey
Vegan Peach & Blueberry Cobbler with Cinnamon Coconut Sorbet
Batter2 C blanched almond flour
1/4 C honey
1/4 C coconut oil melted (or another oil of your choice)
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
Fruit Topping
2 ripe peaches peeled and chopped
1 heaping cup of blueberries
Cinnamon Coconut Sorbet
1 can coconut milk (I used light from Trader Joe's)
2 T melted coconut oil- optional
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 C honey
Preheat the oven to 350
Mix the batter and place it in a baking dish- I used my favorite from Anthropologie, similar to this
Leave the batter crumbly so there are lots of nooks for the juices to fill
Sprinkle the prepared peaches and the blueberries on top of the crumbly batter
Bake 30-40 minutes until the fruits have softened and the batter is not totally cooked, you'll want it gooey
While the cobbler bakes, prepare the sorbet:
In an bowl mix the coconut milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla, ground cinnamon and honey
Pour into an electric ice cream maker and mix for 30 minutes, then place in a freezer safe container and freeze- it will be much softer when first made and will harden up more once frozen

Posted: 5 December 2017
Whether you're going to Vegas or testing your bets at online and mobile casinos, it's important to get a good deal on your gambling experience. After all, it's easy to lose money on a rigged bet.
If you want to do this properly, you need to know how to get the best deals on your casino trips. Because regardless of where you gamble, winning big means spending small.
Follow these tips to avoid overspending at the tables.
Don't Compete With Vegas Locals
Competing with Vegas locals is a bad idea. Simply put, locals have more experience with legal gambling and the city's casino culture than the tourists do.
There are some easy ways to tell whether or not somebody is local. The most obvious is if they volunteer that information. That being said, don't depend on the locals to tell you this.
After all, if you're trying to win big against some foolish tourists, it may be better for you if they don't know who you are.
Another way to do it is by watching how they interact with the dealer. If the person handing out the cards greets them by name, you know that they probably aren't in Sin City for a week-long vacation.
If neither of these things happens, you may want to consider glancing over. While you should respect somebody's privacy, you may not want to gamble with somebody who has a Nevada ID.
Vegas locals will wipe the floor with tourists on casino trips. So it's best not to gamble with them, or to be cautious when you do.
Tip For Complementary Drinks
Vegas casinos tend to give out free drinks. They do this to make sure that people spend more money at the table. And while you shouldn't trust in alcohol to make risky bets, you should take advantage of the complimentary cocktails offered at the casinos.
This is particularly true if you're spending some time at the tables before taking a trip to a concert or show. While you should obviously drink responsibly, taking advantage of the casino's complimentary offers is a great way to enjoy your libations without breaking the bank.
The one thing you need to worry about is making sure you get drinks that are strong enough and come frequently. And the way to do that is by tipping well.
Leave at least a one-dollar tip per free drink. This is still far less than you would spend buying drinks on casino trips and makes things better for both you and the casino staff.
Gamble On Fremont Street
Gambling in Vegas can be a challenge. This is because the odds for casino trips on the Strip are bad. On top of that, the Strip is incredibly pricey because it caters to tourists.
You shouldn't avoid the Strip altogether. It's an enjoyable part of any Las Vegas experience, and you can really absorb a lot of the tourist experience by going there.
But while you want to enjoy the glitz and glamour of the Strip, you also want to expand your experience. And the best way to do that is by gambling like the locals do.
This is why newspapers, locals, and bloggers agree: if you want to do Vegas at an affordable price, you should take some time off of the strip. Instead, expand your experience to include Fremont Street.
Casinos on Fremont have better odds and more affordable prices. On top of that, you'll be able to avoid the numerous potential cash drains that come from gambling on the Strip.
So enjoy everything that Vegas has to offer, and keep moving.
Read Reviews Before Casino Trips
Before you do anything, you should read reviews. Luckily, the internet has made it incredibly easy for us to compare everything from car washes to four-star hotels.
You wouldn't even go to a new burger joint without checking Yelp or TripAdvisor. And if you don't enjoy your experience there, you're out a few bucks.
It's even more important to compare casinos. Make sure that people feel the odds at the location are fair, and that the casino trips are not simply a way to lose.
Finding highly reviewed casinos can take some time. But you won't regret it after you do: In fact, you'll find yourself more likely to have a good time and even win big.
It takes a few seconds to make sure that people have had an enjoyable experience at a casino. The regret of gambling at the wrong location can last a lot longer. So make sure you make a smart and responsible choice for your gambling experience.
Consider Online Gambling
Maybe one of the best ways to save big on casino trips is by avoiding these trips altogether or at least minimizing them. Because while everyone enjoys the occasional trip to Atlantic City or Las Vegas, there's a lot more to do than just visit these locations.
You can get good deals gambling from the comfort of your own home. And when you do it there, you can avoid the stress of overspending on casinos.
You can also avoid extra expenses like hotels and restaurants. As a matter of fact, you can find yourself having an enjoyable time without the bells and whistles.
It's never been easier to gamble online. Whether you're at your desk or on-the-go, there are a number of websites and mobile casinos that offer amazing gambling opportunities.
So consider adding these to your rotation!

Have You
Ever Wondered…
What Causes Thunderstorms, Thunder, and Lightning?
Thunderstormsinclude a lot of rain, strong wind, loud thunder, and bright flashes of lightning. A thunderstorm forms from the rapid upward movement of warm, moist air. As this air rises higher, it cools, condenses, and forms cumulonimbus clouds. Ice crystals form at the top of these clouds and begin falling down through the clouds, toward Earth's surface, as rain. At this point, thunder and lightning usually begin.
Thunder and Lightning
All things are made up of matter, and matter is made up of tiny pieces called molecules. Sometimes molecules cause objects to have electrical charges. Some things have negative charges, and some have positive charges. Opposite charges (a positive and a negative) are attracted to each other, while like charges (two positives or two negatives) repel (try to get away from) each other.
When you run across carpet and then touch a doorknob, your hand might get a little electric shock. That was static electricity, which can also make your hair stand on end or a balloon stick to the wall. All of this happens because the positive charges of one object attract the negative charges of the other.
Lightningalso happens because of static electrical charges. In a big storm cloud, there are lots of positive and negative charges. Most of the positive charges are at the top of the cloud, and the negative ones are at the bottom. The ground has a positive charge, so the negative charges in the cloud and the positive charges on the ground are attracted to each other and pull toward each other. When they get close enough, they will meet somewhere between the cloud and the ground and cause a flash of light, called lightning. Lightning makes a crooked path in the sky, as it moves away from things that block its way, like wind or rain.
That bright flash of light that you see, although it lasts less than a second, has a lot of electrical charge! It can give a dangerous electric shock to whatever it comes in contact with.
Thunderis a result of lightning. The lightning super-heats the molecules in the air around it, and makes them expand and move apart from each other. This causes vibrations – which are the sounds we hear when there is thunder. Even though the sound of thunder begins with the lightning, we see the lightning before we hear the thunder, because it takes longer for sound to travel than for light. So the light reaches our eyes before the sound goes to our ears.
At any given moment, there are over 1,800 thunderstorms going on around the world!
Calculated Cheshbon
It is possible to estimate the distance between you and a flash of lightning. If you observe lightning, count the number of seconds until you hear thunder. Divide that number by five to get the distance in miles. So, if you see lightning and it takes five seconds before you hear the thunder, the lightning is one mile away.
Torah Tidbit
A Divine Wake-up Call
The Gemara in Berachot (59a) says that thunder was created in order to "straighten out the crookedness of the heart." In other words, the purpose of thunder is to put the fear of Hashem into people's hearts.
Because of the sophisticated technology we have nowadays, it is often easy to forget that Hashem runs the world. But with all the technological advances we have, we still cannot control the weather. The frightening sound of thunder is Hashem's reminder to us that He is in charge. When we hear thunder, we should realize that we are not in control of any aspect of our lives; it is Hashem Who runs the entire world.
The Human
United States park ranger Roy "Human Lightning Rod" Sullivan got his nickname because he was struck by lightning seven times between 1942 and 1977 and survived them all! He holds the world record for being struck by lightning more recorded times than any other human being.

Raising the specter of aliens, UFOs and who knows what else, the SyFy Channel recently ran a video of pulsing, colored lights emanating from the middle of Fort Worth in May of last year.
The name of the show, "Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files," suggests the television producers are questioning the official explanation of the bizarre series of "fireballs." Namely, exploding transformers during a lightning storm.
That was what local electric company Oncor told reporters last year, and it's what they told me when I called this afternoon. Company spokesperson Arielle Kaplan said the same thing when she called me back.
Given the number of outages throughout Fort Worth that night and information from the National Weather Service, which recorded 330 lightning strikes around the same time as the video, the explanation seems pretty airtight.
Of course, the lack of detail no doubt provides fuel for theories to the contrary. Kaplan said lightning is the number one cause of power outages (no big surprise there) but couldn't tell me how often such outages include blinding bursts of light that seem more Steven Spielberg than Stephen Hawking. Or how often such lights occur generally.
It isn't just conspiracy theorists. The Star-T's own Bob Ray Saunders said the cause of the fireballs is "still a mystery" in a July 3 column.
The official explanation from the power company was that the occurrence was caused by "lightning hitting transformers."
As I told the newspaper that night, lightning may have hit a transformer that set off a chain reaction, but the flashes I saw were no lightning strikes.
"There is no underground military installation. However, I readily admit that I'm unwilling to excavate east Fort Worth in order to demonstrate this point."

- Page 1 Panasonic DMR-EX89 DVD / HDD Recorder Review
- Page 2 Panasonic DMR-EX89 Review
- Page 3 Panasonic DMR-EX89 Review
Despite including twin Freesat tuners inside the DMR-BS850, Panasonic (like every other DVD/HDD manufacturer, to be fair) still hasn't realised that users want the same thing inside their Freeview recorders, and as such the EX89 only sports a single digital tuner. The limitations of this shouldn't be understated – not being able to record one channel and watch another or record two programmes simultaneously is crippling with so many decent TV shows on Freeview every day. The counter argument is that most people can also use the Freeview tuner inside their TV, but who wants to keep switching between the two? Besides, you also lose out on functions like pause/rewind TV, which as most PVR users will tell you are indispensible.
But otherwise you get a superb array of features for Freeview recording. Being a Freeview+ model, it offers Series/Split Recording and Guide Link, which keeps abreast of programme start and stop times so timer recordings aren't affected by overrunning programmes. It's joined by standard features like subtitles, Audio Description (both of which can be recorded) and now/next banners, but there are no channel or favourite lists.
That means programmes have to be selected from the 7-day Guide Plus EPG, which populates quickly and is easy to navigate thanks to the clear onscreen instructions, but there are flaws – the programme grid is uncomfortably squashed to accommodate a space-eating advert on the left, plus you can't keep up with live TV while you're browsing.
On a more positive note the EPG's Free Word Search is very useful, as it allows you to punch in the name of the programme you're looking for using a virtual keyboard, and then lists all the appearances of that programme in the EPG by date and time. You can even store words in the Name List to save you entering them every time. Also pleasing is that series recording functionality is a lot easier to use than the LG RHT497H we reviewed recently – select a programme from the EPG and it jumps to a separate screen that offers a choice of 'Single Timer Rec' and 'Series Timer Rec'. Simple.
The features just keep on coming. The deck records and plays back DVD-RAM, -RW, +RW and dual-layer -R/+R, and allows you to copy onto them at high speed; it features a pause/rewind live TV mode (with its very own snazzy onscreen logo); there's a Flexible Recording mode alongside the four other presets (XP, SP, LP and EP) which fits a recording accurately into a given space; and there's a vast array of editing tools that let you chop, split and rename recordings, as well as re-order chapters into a new playlist.
But the most appealing feature for anyone who hates adverts is the Auto Scene Chapter, which 'listens' for long breaks in the audio and drops in a chapter point accordingly – that way you can jump right past the adverts to the next part of the programme simply by hitting the Chapter Skip key. It was remarkably accurate during our tests with a recording of "This Morning" on ITV1, finding the right spot every time.
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly test every product we review. We use industry standard tests in order to compare features properly. We'll always tell you what we find. We never, ever accept money to review a product. Tell us what you think - send your emails to the Editor.

As a new member of the Writing Groups team—and a new tutor to boot—I was mystified by all the acronyms and new vocabulary I encountered during my first weeks at the UCWbL. SNL, AP, ILP, competencies, the grid—I had no idea what any of it meant, and I was expected to help coordinate this team? Oh dear.
Even though the Writing Groups team is working to expand its services to include various Writing Groups at all of DePaul's campuses, most of our work still involves collaboration with the School for New Learning (SNL). SNL students work toward their degrees not only by taking classes but also by completing independent study projects that fulfill "competencies," or areas in which students demonstrate that they have significantly advanced their knowledge. ILPs—Individual Learning Pursuits—allow students to earn academic credit by translating their personal life or work experiences into a project that fulfills a competency. APs—Advanced Projects—are similar, but rather than describe previous experience, students complete research projects that expand their knowledge of a topic.
SNL projects are quite different from the assignments we usually encounter in the UCWbL, and they present some significant challenges—both for students and tutors. Since the topics for ILPs and APs are guided by the student's own interests, each project will be different. Students complete proposals that must be approved by their advisors before they begin, but after that the parameters of the projects are largely self-determined. So much freedom is both a blessing and a curse: students are encouraged to value and explore their own experiences, but the lack of crystal-clear guidelines and rubrics often leaves them overwhelmed and frustrated.
I got a glimpse of how daunting (but also how fulfilling) these projects can be during Monday's Advanced Project Forum in the Loop. Writing Groups Coordinator Edward Evins and SNL graduate and writing center tutor Jill Anderson facilitated a wonderful discussion. This was my first experience with SNL students, and I certainly learned a lot about what we as tutors can do to help them navigate the AP/ILP process. A major theme that emerged during the discussion was frustration with the proposal process itself—many students had ideas they were really excited about but said they were having trouble communicating these ideas to their committee. So what can we tutors—even those of us unfamiliar with the SNL—do to help?
A good place to start is the project proposal itself. Encourage students to brainstorm several different proposals and identify themes, different questions, or even versions of the same question. For APs, it's key that the project is both "doable" and "provable." Ask students to think about how they would research their topic: what resources are available? Is the research plan feasible? APs must also provide an "artifact" or "deliverable"; that is, something that shows the student has answered the research question. Try asking students to identify their ultimate goal: do they want to emerge from the project with a new website? A successfully argued thesis? A new computer program? A plan for further research? Once the student has refined the project goal, the focus can shift to brainstorming ways to justify the project—that is, ways to prove to the student's committee that it meets the requirements for an AP.
And, if you notice an appointment with an SNL writer on your tutoring schedule, check out SNL's Writing Guide. It's a great resource with detailed information about SNL projects and even some examples.
Happy tutoring!

|David Price and the Tigers haven't allowed a run in two games
(18 innings) to start the 2015 season. (MLB)
The Detroit Tigers joined an elite group yesterday after their 11-0 win over the Minnesota Twins. Detroit became just the 14th team since 1900 to open the season by pitching back-to-back shutouts. The Tigers beat the Twins in Monday's season opener 4-0.
The Washington Nationals were the most recent team to accomplish the feat, opening 2013 with a pair of shutouts against the Miami Marlins.
The last American League team to blank an opponent twice to open a campaign: The 1977 California Angels. Those Angels were led by Nolan Ryan and eventual Detroit pitcher Frank Tanana.
Only one team - the 1963 St. Louis Cardinals - has started a season with three straight shutouts. (The 2013 Nationals were close, allowing just one run in Game No. 3 against the Marlins).
Here's a table of previous teams, courtesy of baseball-reference.com's awesome Play Index (via @beckjason).
New Detroiter Shane Greene takes the mound in the season finale against the Twins today. Greene & Co. will attempt to match the '63 Cardinals against a Twins team that, quite frankly, hasn't looked good at all through two games.
Note: The Cardinals didn't allow a run until the sixth inning of their fourth game in 1963. Here's a table (via matthewbmowery).

ATVSource.com has also published a review of the Kawasaki Teryx, with lots of details and opinions, which I like. Even if I don't totally agree, like the point on the Teryx carving out a middle ground in side-by-sides. I don't think this new RUV segment, or any other "segments" exist really in side-by-sides. Different vehicles offer more or less of a particular focus, but all are extremely versatile and fall along more of a continuum.
A couple things I learned:
- Developing the fuel injection system would have delayed the release of the Teryx for many months or more. But while Kawasaki is more confident in the Keihen carbs, they are committed to bringing EFI to a future Teryx
- the Teryx tops out at approximately 48 mph (limited only by the engine governor)
- Kawasaki engineers have made the Teryx winch-ready
- the front differential control has preset, incremental stops that allow you to set and go on about driving (different from the lever you must hold on Kawasaki utility ATVs)
- Others are talking about the pronunciation as well!
You can also find some great photos with the article. They don't have them labeled, but on the last page there are a couple of the Monster Energy Kawasaki race team that has been testing the Teryx for quite some time. It is too bad you can't buy one with that lime green color!

Saturday September 28th was a very wet and windy day on the west coast but that didn't stop a dedicated group of 30 volunteers to participate in the 20th year of the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup. The Surfrider Vancouver Island chapter registered a clean up Sombrio Beach within the Juan de Fuca Provincial Park. This year we removed 101 lbs of garbage of the shoreline. Debris found included a tire, aluminum cans, and camping equipment. With funding provided by BC Parks for the event we had some snacks and beverages for the event, as well The Stick in the Mud cafe in Sooke donated hot coffee and made us up some delicious baked goods for the afternoon. John Horgan the MLA for the Juan de Fuca area came out and braved the wet weather as well! A big thanks needs to go out to the UVIC Parks Club, they came out to help with the event and made up most of the volunteers for the day! As well Luke Clarke the Senior Park Ranger for the Juan de Fuca area was a huge help bringing a wheel barrow and dolly to help bring supplies down to the beach and bring debris back up the trail, as well as dispose of the debris we picked up during the event. Check out the photos below!
Interested in getting involved in future clean ups? Check out our website Calendar, we host monthly cleanups all over Southern Vancouver Island on the second Sunday of each month. If you'd like to get more involved in the Combing the Coast Program (our monthly cleanup and marine debris monitoring) contact Kate Wilson at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The Centre was founded in 2007 as a focus of excellence to promote scientific study of the placenta and maternal-fetal interactions during pregnancy. It brings together over 25 Principal Investigators, many of whom are recognized international experts in their fields, based in different departments within the University and Babraham Institute. The range of expertise extends from stem cell biology, through genetics and epigenetics, immunology, physiology, biochemistry and metabolism, bioengineering, to clinical studies and epidemiology. In addition, the Centre embraces Fellows holding externally funded research fellowships, e.g. Marie Curie, and its own Next Generation Fellows who are developing their independent research careers. This unique depth and breadth of expertise allows members to adopt an integrated and comprehensive scientific approach to understanding the complexity of placental biology.
The ultimate aim is to alleviate suffering resulting from placentally-related complications of pregnancy, such as miscarriage, growth restriction and stillbirth, that remain a major cause of maternal and infant morbidity and mortality worldwide.
To achieve this aim, our objectives are:
- To facilitate interactions between basic scientists and academic clinicians both within Cambridge and nationally/internationally to address major outstanding questions in placental biology;
- To provide research training of the highest standard, and to promote the careers of recent graduates as independent researchers;
- To act as an international resourceto to facilitate placental research.
The Centre was endowed by a medical alumnus and the University is fully committed to its success, assigning the Centre academic positions and core laboratory and administrative space. The research activities of members are supported by grant income from the Wellcome Trust, the MRC, the BBSRC, the British Heart Foundation, Action Medical Research and other funding bodies, for which they are most grateful.
