Sir Terry Matthews unveiled as Patron
Leading technology entrepreneur endorses Research Institute
Watch a video of Sir Terry Matthews talking about the Research Institute's plans for new approaches to cancer.
Sir Terry Matthews, the technology entrepreneur and owner of the Celtic Manor Resort has been unveiled as The European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute's first ever Patron.
Sir Terry will support and encourage the Research Institute's work, championing its efforts to develop new treatments across the whole range of cancers.
Sir Terry's agreement was announced at the official launch of the University's three new Research Institutes. In a video address he told guests how he was backing the Research Institute's search for answers about cancer stem cells.
Sir Terry Matthews, Patron of The European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute
Sir Terry Matthews is well-known as an entrepreneur in high technology, and has founded more than 80 companies in the UK and Canada in this field. Born in Newport, he is also known for his commitment to Wales, including the development of the Celtic Manor Resort which brought the Ryder Cup to Wales for the first time last year.
Sir Terry said: "Cancer survival rates still remain tragically low. We have only a very poor understanding of why this is the case. Cardiff's European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute will explore a new concept – that we can beat cancer by focussing on just a small part of the tumour – the cancer stem cell. This idea is creating excitement around the world and the UK should be a leader in investigating it. I am delighted to be patron of the Research Institute at Cardiff and to play my part promoting its search for treatments across the whole range of cancers."
Professor Alan Clarke
Cancer stem cells account for only a small proportion of cells in a tumour. However, they could be crucial to the way tumours form, grow and spread. The Research Institute will investigate the possibility that therapies aimed at cancer stem cells alone will offer a better success rate for cancer sufferers.
Professor Alan Clarke, lead applicant behind The European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute, said: "Sir Terry Matthews has an international reputation for innovation. At Cardiff, we also aim to be a world leader for original thinking on the emerging new science of cancer stem cells. We look forward to an exciting and stimulating relationship with Sir Terry as we search for new ways to beat this disease."

BALTIMORE Jon Beason needed just three practices before he was ready to hit the field again for the Panthers.
The three-time Pro Bowler started Thursday night at weakside linebacker, playing in his first live-action game since Week 4 of last season against Atlanta.
Beason went on injured reserve last year with shoulder and knee injuries, and he had microfracture surgery on his knee during October. Since then, he has rehabilitated the knee, and he didnt participate in a padded practice until Sunday.
Hes another guy thats a leader, another guy that knows what hes doing, middle linebacker Luke Kuechly said this week at practice. Hes strong, hes communicating, he knows what hes supposed to be and its just fun to have him out there.
Coach Ron Rivera said this week the team would get creative with Beason, saying simply keeping him at weakside wouldnt be a good use of all of his talents. Beason had been the franchises middle linebacker until Kuechly won that position last year and eventually became The Associated Press Defensive Rookie of the Year.
Beason didnt make any standout plays through two quarters Thursday, but his versatility was welcomed by the Panthers. On the first drive, Beason played in a base 4-3 defense as well as in the 3-4.
His presence was especially needed when Chase Blackburn, who had been filling in for Beason, did not dress because of an unspecified injury. Blackburn caught a helmet to his back last week against Philadelphia and played just one series.
Injury bug: The Panthers didnt escape Baltimore without getting banged up.
Kealoha Pilares injured his knee on the opening kickoff and was listed as out before the end of the quarter. During the second quarter, Amini Silatolus night was finished because of a knee injury.
In the second half, cornerback Captain Munnerlyn went to the sideline with a hand injury. ESPN reported the X-rays came back negative. And finally, rookie running back Kenjon Barner was announced as out for the game during the third quarter with a foot injury.
Jimmy time: Derek Anderson wore his hat on the sideline longer than during previous exhibitions while Jimmy Clausen got his first chance to run with Carolinas second team this preseason.
Clausen went 2-for-4 for 20 yards as he tried to protect a dwindling Panthers lead during the fourth quarter.
Theres no backup quarterback controversy, but the Panthers wanted to see Clausen in action with a second-team line and receivers in a game.
Sitting out: Nearly a dozen Panthers players sat out the game.
Running back Jonathan Stewart; fullbacks Mike Tolbert and Mike Zordich; wide receivers Armanti Edwards, Joe Adams and Domenik Hixon, tackle Bruce Campbell, guard Edmund Kugbila, Blackburn, tight end Ben Hartsock, defensive end Mario Addison and defensive tackle Frank Kearse were sidelined.
Coaching reunion: Rivera and defensive coordinator Sean McDermott ran into some familiar faces during pregame warmups.
Rivera and McDermott were on the Philadelphia Eagles staff during the early 2000s with three Ravens coaches: coach John Harbaugh, run game coordinator Juan Castillo and senior defensive assistant Steve Spagnuolo.
• The Panthers defense has double the touchdowns (four) of the offense (two) this preseason. The special teams unit has one following Ted Ginn Jr.s punt return.
• Armond Smith was ejected from the game midway through the fourth quarter when he kicked a Ravens player following a 10-yard rush.
• Brad Nortman booted a 64-yard punt early. Hes safely in as the Panthers punter for the season after Carolina drafted him in 2012, and that 64-yarder would have registered as his career high (he hit a 63-yard punt last year).
• Steve Smith came to the aid of his quarterback when 6-foot-2, 248-pound Daryl Smith was flagged for a late hit on Cam Newton. Steve Smith ran up to the linebacker and shoved him after he hit Newton while on the ground following a scramble.
• Charlotte Latin alum Chris Canty got the start on the defensive line for the Ravens. The Panthers showed interest in the former New York Giant this offseason, but the veteran was out of their price range.
• Kawann Short had what might have been his best play of the preseason with less than six minutes to play in the first half. The rookie defensive tackle blew past guard Jah Reid and sacked Joe Flacco for a loss of 1 on first down.
• Despite leading the team in preseason catches and receiving yards, David Gettis wasnt very visible with the first-team offense. He had just one catch for 6 yards when in the game with Newton.

I don't know about you, but after this week's news of the now-famous hot-tub attack I'm suddenly not as excited as usual to see Whistler's magnificent black bear residents.
And maybe that's not a bad thing.
I've been dismayed since the news broke on Monday, chatting with anyone and everyone about the strange encounter and trying to figure out why the untagged, adult male would swipe a man in the head, apparently unprovoked and with no obvious attractants around.
The whole thing just doesn't add up with my experience living in black bear country and reporting on the animals for several years. Suddenly, my typical speal to visitors about how Whistler's black bears aren't dangerous — as long as you keep your distance, respect the animals' space and don't do anything stupid — no longer rings true.
When you think about the implications for daily life in Whistler, the whole thing gets even more unnerving. Who's going to watch your back next time you're strolling along the Valley Trail or around Lost Lake to make sure no black bears are coming up quietly from behind to take you down with one swipe of a big, sharp paw?
Many Whistlerites are often in circumstances in which our backs are turned to patches of wilderness, which is just how the hot tub victim was relaxing when struck suddenly from behind, and it's not always an avoidable position.
And just to clear things up for all the internet pundits out there from across Canada and beyond, this didn't happen "way out in the woods" as some of you have speculated. We're talking a five-minute walk or so from the Village.
This was obviously a rare incident — I've never heard of anything quite like it in Whistler's history — but the fact that there's so far no rhyme or reason is what makes it unsettling.
Until now, I've lived with a pretty clear set of "rules" on how not to get in conflict with Whistler's bears. But it seems there was nothing this man could have done to prevent being swatted, save from sitting in a different spot in the tub. (I'm not sure you can turn that into a "lesson" for peacefully cohabitating with bears.)
Hopefully the ongoing investigation will result in some kind of resolution, so we're not all left feeling betrayed by our usually peaceful bears.
So far, I am leaning towards the speculation that perhaps from the bear's perspective all that was visible was the man's head and the animal didn't realize it was a much larger creature than what it could see. And maybe, just maybe, the swipe of its paw was more of an exploration than an attack.
That doesn't really explain the bear pacing outside the sliding door afterwards, but for now I'm willing to give the animal the benefit of the doubt.
At the end of the day, it seems that some black bears can be predatory. And maybe that's a reality we all need to come to terms with in Whistler.
I'm as guilty as the next guy/girl for hoping to spot a bear or two and be able to watch the beautiful, awe-inspiring creatures and maybe even capture a photo or two — from a safe distance, of course.
But Sunday's incident is an important reminder that Whistler's bears are not mascots or pets — they are wild, unpredictable animals that can, in fact, be very dangerous.
Hopefully the positive outcome to all this will be fewer people pulling over on the highway to watch bears and in general keeping a more respectful, healthy distance.

Sony has not only delivered what folks have been asking for, a cheaper version of the PS3, but also a smaller, more energy efficient console in the PlayStation 3 Slim, model number CECH-2000A. Regardless of what you think of the timing, this (nearly) full featured PS3 is sleek and sexy. Those of you with dreams of installing Linux on your PS3 may be disappointed, but for the rest of us a PS3 with a smaller price tag, footprint, and larger hard drive is a welcome development indeed.
The new PS3 slim will ship with a 120GB hard disk drive, is only a third of the size of the original 60GB PS3 and consume considerably less electricity. However in addition to losing 3rd party operating system support, the new PS3 slim will not be able to stand vertically without the addition of a special stand.
The following images of the PS3 Slim and accessories are provided by Sony.

It's No Sky Train, But LaGuardia Airport Is Getting a Speedy Bus Service
Castles, trains, there are a lot of things we'd like to build in the sky, but it's just not going to happen. So while LaGuardia Airport may not be getting a sleek new air train anytime soon, it will at least be getting some select bus routes.
The city announced today that there will be three new potential Select Bus Service routes to LaGuardia Airport as well as local bus service improvements, including a faster crosstown service on 125th Street. The new services could potentially reduce travel times to the rather disconnected airport by anywhere from 10 to 40 minutes. Read More

Fashion Diva: Christina Aguilera 1999 - 2009
Christina Aguilera has a reputation for having some of the strongest pipes in the business and an unapologetic willingness to take fashion risks. Take a look at some of her style hits and misses from past to present.
Read our interview with Christina Aguilera
By Koryn Kennedy
January 5, 2010 12:00 AMFresh-Faced Ingénue
In 1999, 18-year-old Christina, still baby-faced and hair extension-less, makes the jump from Disney Channel star to pop singer with the release of her first album, Christina Aguilera.
Putting Down Roots
By early 2000 she's established herself as a bona-fide pop star after clocking three No. 1 hits off her first album and swiping the Grammy for Best New Artist from fellow Mouseketeer Britney Spears. She begins to show a penchant for barely there outfits that give Cher a run for her money.
Mixing It Up
In 2001 she records Lady Marmalade with Pink, Lil' Kim, and Mya for the film Moulin Rouge. The quartet wins the Grammy for Best Pop Collaboration and MTV's Video of the Year. Christina starts to morph her reputation as an outrageous dresser into that of a fashion chameleon by donning classic suit jackets and rasta braids over her provocatively cut dresses and unitards.
Despite her Lady Marmalade victory, Christina had already become a fixed member of "bubble gum" pop genre. Frustrated with these limitations, she begins to push back against the stereotype; at the Radio & Records Convention in June of 2001 she channels Elizabeth Taylor's Cleopatra, complete with a giant Afro of fake blond curls.
Pushing the Envelope
Eager to break with the Disney/pop scene, Christina "embraces" her sexuality with suggestive clothing and provocative dance moves while her contemporaries haggle with the media over whether or not they're still virgins. She releases Stripped in late 2002. She also adopts the nickname Xtina, has it tattooed on her neck, and gets several body piercings.
The End of an Era
By the early 2000s, Christina's established herself as pop's wild child. This photo, taken in April 3, 2003, in the wake of the release of her controversial Dirrty video, is the last time she appears to the public as a toned-down, bubble-gum-pink pop princess.
Identity Crisis
In late April of 2003, Christina goes brunette overnight. This marks the beginning of the most daring — and ill-advised — chapter in her fashion history, one often punctuated by changing hair color, hair length, and skin tone.
The Dark Age
Still rocking dark locks in 2004, Christina continues to promote Stripped and tours extensively. She begins a very public battle with bronzer. At age 23 she can no longer blame this beauty faux pas on naiveté.
With a Bob and a Tan...
Christina releases two singles in 2004 and flirts with various styles as her skin tone takes on an unearthly hue.
Going for Gold
In March of 2004 she appears at a charity event in an elegant dress, a demurely styled bun, and skin that glows nearly fluorescent. This is the introduction of her more refined look, but also marks the end of neck scarves as shirts.
Reincarnated Glamour
After ditching her dark tresses suddenly, in June of 2004, Christina returns to blond. She also starts what will become her fashion obsession with old Hollywood glamour, often dressing like Marilyn Monroe and losing the jaundiced look permanently.
Settling In
Almost a year later, in June of 2005, Christina wears a severely structured in '50s pinup hairstyle. She pairs it with bright red lipstick and solidly toned platinum locks, both of which she maintains today. She begins to delve into burlesque and marries longtime boyfriend Jordan Bratman.
Basic Instinct
In 2006 Christina releases her third English-language album, Back to Basics; she dons a style reminiscent of Sharon Stone's calm, cool '90s look, and twice as much confidence. In May she once again slips into her Marilyn persona to pose nude in GQ, then starts a fight with Mariah Carey.
Coming Out on Top
A very pregnant Christina strolls the red carpet in 2007. Despite having been publicly accused of sexual frolicking (see Eminem's The Real Slim Shady), criticized for her scandalous clothing, and admonished for her sexualized behavior throughout her career, her marriage and pregnancy seem both happy and uneventful.
Hot Momma
Post baby and baby weight, Christina reimerges in 2008. Stylish and svelte, she does what every woman over the age of 25 does and cuts some bangs, after selling her son's baby pictures to People magazine for a reported $1.5 million.
Still rocking the bangs, Christina takes a page from Madonna's playbook by wearing a jungle-cat-print leotard to the 2008 American Music Awards, reminding the world that not only is she still a voice to reckon with but also a body to envy.
The Long Haul
By the end of 2009, Christina is set to release another album in early 2010 and has begun filming her first feature film, Burlesque. With streamlined style and swept-back hair, she looks sleek, elegant, and confident.

Competitive Enterprise Institute | 1899 L ST NW Floor 12, Washington, DC 20036 | Phone: 202-331-1010 | Fax: 202-331-0640
What do the Progressive Policy Institute, former Sen. Phil Gramm [4] of Texas, former presidential candidate Herman Cain [5] and the Competitive Enterprise Institute have in common? An idea for rolling back overregulation.
After President Obama [6] issued executive orders in 2011 directing agencies to trim a small amount of regulatory fat, the Progressive Policy Institute's Michael Mandel [7] issued a report proposing a bipartisan Regulatory Improvement Commission [8] to aid the process. It would be tasked with finding obsolete or harmful regulations worthy of repeal. It then would send its recommendations to Congress [9], which would vote on them as a package, up or down, without amendment.
It's a good idea, with roots going back nearly 20 years. The first formal proposal for creating such a commission was Mr. Gramm's Commission on Regulatory Relief and Rollback [10] legislation in 1995.
Of course, the various plans differ in their finer mechanics, but their basic concepts are the same. Both spending and regulations are almost impossible to cut using conventional political means. Yet one approach was tried in the 1990s that had some success: the Base Closure and Realignment Commission [11] (BRAC [11]).
When the Cold War ended, America no longer needed such a large military. Because no member of Congress [9] would vote to close an unneeded military base in his own district or state, the independent BRAC [11] commission's job was to give Congress [9] an omnibus package of bases to vote on closing, without amendment. This approach was able to overcome the usual vote-trading and back-scratching, and the package passed. The Pentagon [12] (and taxpayers) saved piles of money.
Since then, Mr. Mandel [7], Mr. Gramm [4] and analysts across the political spectrum all have had the same thought: Using BRAC [11] as a model with a proven track record for cutting unnecessary spending, can a similar mechanism be extended to repealing unneeded regulations?
We deserve to know the answer. The total federal regulatory burden is at least $1.8 trillion per year and growing. More than 3,500 new rules have come into effect each year of both George W. Bush [13]'s and Barack Obama [6]'s presidencies. The Code of Federal Regulations, where all these rules are stored, is more than 169,000 pages long. Small businesses spend more than $10,000 per employee per year to comply with federal rules. With the economy still in bad shape, something has to give.
As Mr. Mandel [7]'s report points out, even if rules make sense individually, they can be harmful when taken as a whole, "in the same way that a big enough pile of small stones can dam up a stream."
Rolling back overregulation is a huge task, so an all-of-the-above approach is needed. Virginia Democratic Sen. Mark R. Warner has a "pay-as-you-go" proposal that would require agencies to remove a similar dollar amount's worth of rules to offset the cost of each new one they add. Republicans and Democrats both have kind words for Mr. Warner's idea. Another idea is a regulatory budget. Congress [9] is supposed to issue a detailed annual budget for how much money it wants to spend and how it will spend it. Regulations deserve something similar.
The trouble with these two proposals is that in order to work, they require much more transparency about regulatory costs than we have now. The administration still has not released the spring 2012 (let alone the now-due fall) edition of the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions, the final Report to Congress [9] on Benefits and Costs of Regulations or the Information Collection Budget. Between that and the absence of cost estimates for many rules, these reforms cannot work.
Fortunately, those transparency shortcomings don't spell doom for a BRAC [11]-style commission. Congress [9], at its first opportunity, should appoint a bipartisan Regulatory Reduction Commission to assess agency regulations and hold hearings. From that survey, a yearly package of proposed regulatory reductions should be assembled for Congress [9] to vote on, without amendment. Any commission recommendation that doesn't require legislation could be implemented directly by the president.
The commission could be kept active for as many years as Congress [9] deems necessary, and it potentially could shave off large chunks of ineffective regulations over a number of years. The country is going on five years of economic malaise. All the fiscal and monetary fixes Washington has enacted have failed. It's time to lighten regulatory burdens so companies can innovate, grow and hire more easily. A BRAC [11]-style commission with bipartisan support is one way to accomplish that.

Schloss Gottorf
The Dukes of Gottorf's castle in Schleswig is far more 18th-century palace than medieval fortress and today it is home to three remarkable museums. The Schleswig-Holstein Landesmuseum is filled with art treasures. A roomful of paintings by Lucas Cranach the Elder and a wood-panelled 17th-century wine tavern from Lübeck create a memorable first impression.

Each summer, the Weizmann Institute of Science's annual Kupcinet-Getz International Science School accepts a select number of outstanding undergraduate students to participate in research projects in mathematics, physics, chemistry and life sciences. It is an enrichment program designated for undergraduate students from all over the world, who are majoring in the Sciences, to experience science first-hand by becoming part of a research group at the Weizmann Institute. Each student is assigned to a laboratory or a theoretical research project under the supervision of an experienced scientist; the students become, for a short time, full-fledged members of the scientific team. It is hoped that this will help the students shape their scientific course and reinforce their commitment to research as a career.
The 8-week program is for undergraduate university-level students only, who have completed at least one year of study. Students in their final year may apply for the summer immediately after graduation. Students may not apply if they have already graduated university at the time of application. Students from overseas must have a grade point average of at least 3.6 out of 4.0 or the equivalent. Israeli students must have a grade point average of at least 85 to apply.

Garter Set - Ivory Hortense B. HewittIt is very nice for what I would expect out of an [$] garter. Even nicer then I would expect. Got the job done, fit nicely and comfortably. The rhinestones in the center were off center, but again it was [$]. Would buy again.Sep 17,2013
Gatefold Guest Book Hortense B. HewittVery quick to ship. On a budget, I wanted to ensure I received the best quality for my dollar. This guest book is beautiful. Pages are actually bound to the spine, so no tacky spirals. And yes, there are lines on the pages for the guests to sign on :) I can't wait to use it this November!!Sep 16,2013
Fabric Aisle Runner - Ivory Hortense B. HewittI was very nervous ordering this considering the review, but I did not have the same experience. It arrived today, and it only looks yellow all wrapped on the roll. Once you unroll it, it is very, very light ivory. The material is somewhat sheer- if you place it on honey-colored hardwood floor, you can tell there is wood underneath. It doesn't seem to show too much color through though (we tried it against a maroon recliner since that is the color of the church floors). I really like the print pattern. I do not know what it will look like after walking on it in heels, but it seems pretty sturdy.Sep 14,2013

The first thing that stands out about this beer is its appearance. It is a lovely crystal clear glowing shiny gold with big fat carbonation bubbles slowly making their way to the top. The head leaves something to be desired but it is a very pretty beer none the less. I get only faint sweet grain aromas.
This is a delicous and refreshing beer that blalnces a robust grain sweetness with restrained hop bitter carried by a slight grain astringency. Occasionally I get subtle fruit notes (strawberry?) but really its the grain that does the talking in this beer and thats a good thing.
Mouthfeel is rich and creamy but firmly carbonated. Special.

Picked up a couple singles from Rahr to sample and review. 2nd time trying this one.
Light tan and clear with rising bubbles. Head was pretty darn good, about two fingers of fluffy white foam, and had some staying power this time around..
Aroma is clean and subdued, with some malts, grains, grass, bread.
Flavor is also very clean. I detect a nice floral component, some bready malts, some grains and grass, and a little sweetness. Hops are light and not very noticeable, but there's enough bitterness to balance the beer nicely.
Body is very light and drinkability is high. Pleasant, but more like a blonde ale if you ask me,

3.2/5 rDev -3.3%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.25
12 oz. bottle poured into pilsener
L: standard-issue crystal clear yellow, tough the head really springs up, about 1 1/4-inch of white foam. some lacing.
S: very slight malt; mostly weak grain. over the last 1/5, the malt really shows through to the point of sweet biscuits; kind of cool, but it doesn't kick in until way too late.
T: awesome first sip; really sweet with some malt. after that -- way too much corn/grain and not nearly enough hops and barley. some bite up front but nothing major. ocassionally you get a good sweet finish, but it's too sporadic.
F: good carbonation; a little watery but still solid.
O: probably a perfect BBQ/summer beer, but a little too grainy for me to seek out again. if your only other options are the standard Bud-Miller-Coors offerings, drink this. it's better. but it doesn't stand out as a champion on its own.

A: Pours a clear, pale golden straw color, with some carbonation. Small head dissipates quickly after pour
S: Very faint biscuity smell
T: A slight biscuity taste that the nose hinted at, with a crisp slightly bitter finish
M: Light, but not watery
O: Light, crisp lager that is an easy substitute for any of the BMC lagers. Not too much to the taste, but a good thirst quencher for a hot day.

A bustling, subtropical city and Africa's busiest port, Vasco da Gama is said to have sighted Durban Bay on Christmas Day, 1497, naming the land Natal as a mark of respect for the Nativity. The name Durban was acquired in 1843 when Port Natal was renamed for Sir Benjamin D'Urban. Today , Durban delights the traveler with its colorful mosaic of ethnic neighborhoods and memorable excursions to game reserves and the traditional lifestyle of the Zulu people. Explore Old Market Square, the Golden Mile beachfront and the scented Botanic Gardens and Gray Street Mosque, the largest in the southern hemisphere.

Why is it like that?
Why is it that you can grasp it easily, but when it comes to implementation, it is not that easy to do…
I have experienced that taking actions improves my vision. In life, you may not always be able to see things upto their ends. So waiting for things to clear in front of your Mind's eyes, and then take steps is the prescription to wait for ever.
Procrastinating Lifestyle and Immobilized Mindset
When we have dreams, actions are the next steps to make them a Reality. We know that. Initially you may take actions to make them happen, but to persist requires a different mindset to adopt.
We need feedback for our actions. We need to see that the steps that we take are taking us closer to our goals. When you see that things are not moving forward, it is common for us to get frustrated. Most of us leave at this point. We lose faith in the process and change the course of our life.

Recipe by Tammy K. Olson
"I came up with this recipe years ago and usually make it around Thanksgiving and Christmas, either for get-togethers or for gifts."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (1 ounce) package dry ranch salad dressing mix
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup milk
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
12 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese
5 ounces roasted, salted almonds, chopped
YOU WONDERFUL GAL YOU!!!! I have been HUNTING for a recipe like this, perfect amount of ranch with the cheese. Years ago, hubby tasted a ranch cheese ball and I havent been able to find one since, now I can make it! I used Sliced almonds, I actually stuck them in in progressive levels to look like a pinecone, it was pretty cute! THANK YOU! **Also, I Used Smoked Almonds--mmmmmmm delish!
This was way to salty for me...and I like salt! I think adding half of the ranch dressing would help. I wanted something w/ a more subtle flavor. This wasn't it. Sorry.

This is a terrfic cheeseball!! I don't like ranch flavouring and I loved this. The only change I made is instead of almonds, I rolled the ball in bread crumbs that had a little melted butter in them. VERY good. Will use this for fancy and no-fancy occasions alike.
Very tasty. I left out the mayo, and used smoked cheddar cheese, rolled the outside in crushed pecans. SOOO good.
I love the cheddar cheese in this instead of just cream cheese. I covered it in pecans because I love pecans. I served with wheat thins or triscuits or wheat crackers and it was perfect.
I made this at Christmas and it was a big hit! I didn't make any substitutions - it was wonderful as is.
AWSOME!!! This is the first Cheese Ball I have ever made and it was so easy and good. I made it for the office Thanksgiving party and was told by everyone I am now obligated to bring it to every office party from her forward! I loved it!!!
Did NOT care for this! I just wasted time, ingredients and money in making this. It did not set-up and I followed the directions exactly and it tasted like salty ranch cheese...no real flavor except a salty taste. Not sure what all the fuss and almost five stars was all about in this recipe. Back to my good and trusty dried beef cheese ball recipe!

Today the theme of journeying is all around us. In the Gospel, we hear how Jesus journeyed into the desert to prepare Himself for the beginning of His Ministry, which was the first step on His long journey to the cross. Read more..
Continue Reading →Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Season of Lent. It is a season of penance, reflection, and fasting which prepares us for Christ's Resurrection on Easter Sunday, through which we attain redemption.
Why we receive the ashes
In the tradition of penitents of old, who put on sackcloth and rubbed their skin with ashes, our foreheads are marked with ashes to remind us that life here on Earth is passing. We remember this when we are told: "Remember, Man is dust, and unto dust you shall return." It is an opportunity for us to turn our hearts back to God and the mark on our forehead professes our faith in the power of the Cross to bring us eternal life.
Dear Parishioners,
Our way of life here in Australia is so different from the life experienced in many nations around the world. Here, our Year One and Two school children are provided with ipads and laptops to help their studies. Read more..

Drink a glass of water quickly. :o
Drinking water upside-down.....it really works....no, seriously, it does.
Eat some peanut butter.
Breathe into a paper bag for a few seconds at a time.
Drink water?
If you drink water upside down (yes it works lol) Good luck!! (:
stare at person without blinking
Drink water
Gulp down alot of water without stopping
What I do it I drink water while hitting my back with my hand! It works every time!
Warm Pepsi works every time!!!!
Ask a friend to stick their (clean) fingers gently in your ears while you slowly sip water from a glass or bottle. If you have hiccups while alone, fill up mouth with water, stick your own fingers in your ears to plug them, then slowly swallow small amounts of the water that's in your mouth. I've tried this with myself, children, friends and nephew: it is foolproof!
Drink water from a glass of water slowly, without taking any breath for as long as you can, till you think you are going to drown. Seal the glass to your mouth and face, also. If you have to take a breath, take it from the air inside the glass. Hiccups are caused by extra oxygen, in you system, so by using the air inside the glass, it has more CO2 then oxygen after you have breathed in it, your body will use up the extra oxygen. Simple, really, I have done it hundreds of times....
I was once told to think about the person who may be remembering me at the time of hiccups....its silly but it worked....no harm trying
drink water its the easiest way to avoid hiccups.....
spoon of sugar C; it works and also tastes good ^-^
drink a glass of water and drink it quickly ya
drink a glass of water slowly, and think of no-more-hiccups. works every time
The simplest way to accomplish this is holding your breath BUT you have to do it by expanding your chest/lungs to their fullest and holding that position through the amount of time you would next hiccup, not just holding a little bit of air or for just a little while.
The reason there are so many ideas is there are a lot of complicated ways to trick your body into not taking a breath for longer than usual. (eating dry sugar, drinking water, etc.)
Here's some trivia you might never need to know about this: the technical term for hiccups is spasmodic diaphragmatic contractions
hold ur breath.
Urine is good for more than jellyfish stings, athletes foot and golden showers....did you know it can be used to cure the hiccups as well?
To cure yourself of the hiccups, simply take a small sample of your urine, in a cup or a bowl. Position your nose slightly above the urine and slowly inhale for 30-60 seconds. Your hiccups will be gone. This works because there are chemicals in your urine that relax muscles. When air touches the urine, it evaporates and the chemicals become vapors.
This is also why rubbing urine on a sore muscle relieves pain.
My doctor told me today - put some sugar (1-2 teaspoons) on your tongue and let it melt in your mouth. This will help with the hiccups..
Fill a wash basin with Luke warm
water, comfortable to the touch. Have a dry towel near by. Here's the tricky part, put your face in the water deep enough to immerse both you'd nose and mouth. Put your' head in the water three times and take it out twice, this method ALWAYS stops hiccups!
Drink about a half a teaspoon of pickle juice every 7-10 seconds until your hiccups stop.
This will sound weird, but it works for me every time:
Drink a good mouthful of water, but don't swallow it
Find a wall, then go into a headstand position (with the water still in your mouth)
Then, slowly swallow the water, little by little
Hopefully that works! It works for me!
sweet gherkin pickle juice, about 1 to 2 oz. works every time
Drink water, Hold your breath till you can't anymore, Hold someone's hand till there gone
This was an old answer by me for a similar question:
As said already, holding your breath always works. But sometimes just holding your breath won't do good. In that case, take a clean plastic cover. Cover your mouth and nose with the plastic cover so that no air can go in or out. Breathe through your mouth, inside the cover. Continue this until you are free from hiccups. The thing here is to intake some amount of air that we exhaled. Both the methods are basically same, but the 2nd is better, because it makes us to inhale more air that we exhaled, and i think that's the reason for working of this method.
Okay, listen very carefully.....
First u take a big breath and then hold ur breath
Then u blow it out with a big force
and it should go away (sometimes)
Put your arms up and just make a bubble in your mouth and dont breath.
ok so my mom always says tilt ur head back and then she takes a glass of water and she puts it really high up and then she pretends like shes gonna pour it in my mouth but she doesnt and it works and also eat a spoon full of suger
its sugar. spell it correctly. and put paper on your head for babies and for grown ups drink water and have someone pat your back quickly.
Inhale a deep breath until you can't inhale any more, hold it for a couple seconds then inhale a little more & hold it as long as you can, while you're doing this start swallowing, swallow until you can't swallow any more then swallow once more. exhale and hiccups are gone. (Full lungs & swallowing)
Swallow a teaspoon of sugar quickly. The irritation to the muscles in the throat will stop the hiccups
drink water upside down or hold breath.or squeeze in between. your thuumb and first finger also holding breath
Hold your breath open your mouth without breathing and drink trust me it works
Eat a banana. It always worked for us!
In the alternative, hold your breath but time it right before the approaching hiccup spasm. Without air, it stops!
i would usually hold my breath but it's better for u to drink water :-)
I SWEAR by this :say the alphabet backwards without cheating. My therapist recommended this to me
Drink water when you hiccup. I know when a baby hiccups, the mums always let it drink some water.
Get yourself a cup of water. Then light a match and immediately outen it in the the cup of water and throw the match away. Then drink the water. The sulfur from the match will make your hiccups go away. This really works!
I hold my breath for about thirty seconds. My teacher taught my friend a trick where you cover your ears with your hands and put your head between your knees so you are facing the floor and do that for about thirty seconds.
put a straw around youre lips then drink a glass of water
Hold your breath for 10 or 20 seconds.
CURE HERE: fill your mouth with water, put chin on your chest, put q-tip in your left ear gently. Stay this way 15 seconds. REPEAT if hiccups are BAD- IT WORKS, HICCUPS GONE
first drink some water then hold your breath and spin around ( dont hold your breath too long or else you will pass out and think you were dreaming you can also make someone scare by pulling out a gun and pretending to shoot you
There are lots of different ways to cure hiccups. You can drink water, hold your breath, or ask someone to scare you.
take a sip of water into your mouth. touch your chin to your chest and swallow! simple as that and it works great!
Make sure you are not wearing anything tight around your chest. If you are, loosen it.
Keep gulping every few seconds, especially when you feel a hiccup might be coming. A couple of hiccups might escape, but with continuous gulping, hiccups should be gone within 3 minutes.
Spoonful of sugar, or peanut butter.

BC Park Ranger, Cypress Provincial Park (BC Parks photo)
Epic mountains, sparkling lakes, living rainforests and oceanside trails – there are hundreds of parks in BC to explore.
From the world-ranked Stanley Park in the heart of Vancouver to Gwaii Haanas, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that puts the "wild" into wilderness, British Columbia is renowned for having the most extensive parks system in Canada – there are more than 1,000 provincial parks and protected areas, plus many more national and city parks.
Walking and hiking are a given in virtually every park. Beyond that, there is wildlife viewing, backpacking, camping, kayaking and canoeing, swimming, fishing and boating, skiing and boarding, mountain biking and mountaineering.
Three of BC's parks are designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites, signifying that they are a protected area of global significance.

Geographically, parks in the province are divided into six regions and three cities:
Kootenay Rockies Epic parks encompassing 4 mountain ranges including the Rocky Mountains.
Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Home to spectacular wildlife viewing and the Bowron Lakes canoe circuit.
Thompson Okanagan Diverse parks feature majestic waterfalls, glaciers, rolling grasslands and the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies.
Vancouver Island Sprawling white sand beaches, tide pools, sun-drenched islands, remote wilderness trails and old-growth forests.

Camping: Many parks offer camping facilities – both vehicle-access and wilderness sites. The typical camping season is mid-May to mid-September although opportunities also abound for winter camping. Some parks accept reservations, others don't. Check the specific park's listing. Campers in the backcountry should practice "leave no trace" ethics.
Wildlife: Although interactions are rare, most of BC's parks are in wilderness areas, so it is important for visitors on the trails to be "bear aware."
Pets: Watch for signage, but dogs on leash are usually welcome in most city parks and off-leash areas are designated. In wilderness areas, pets are generally discouraged and sometimes prohibited because of problems with wildlife, bears in particular. Check the specific park's website to be certain.
Seasons: While most parks are open year round, winter weather can close trails and make conditions treacherous. Visitors need to check trail conditions and ensure they are appropriately equipped and knowledgeable about the terrain and winter conditions. Check the specific park's website for trail conditions.
Play a part in protecting BC's forests. Abide by local park rules, exercise caution and ensure all fires are extinguished. For more information on BC forest fires, click here. To report a forest fire within BC from a cell phone, call *5555.

Named for a Cree expression of 'awe and wonder', a trip to Yoho is truly awesome! The park's towering peaks, expansive glaciers and impressive waterfalls have attracted visitors for over a century.
These same features were the curse of railway engineers and inspired the construction of the Spiral Tunnels, an engineering marvel. Although many of its highlights are accessible by road, Yoho is also a hiker's dream. Discover half a billion year old fossils on a guided hike to the restricted Burgess Shale fossil beds or take an afternoon stroll around Emerald Lake or to Wapta Falls. Grab your hiking boots for an epic day or multi-day adventure on the park's high-elevation Iceline Trail.

Recipe by BobbieRocks
"This was my Grandma Moyer's recipe. It has been missing since at least the mid 80's. I found it stuck the middle of an old book I got after my mom passed away. Everyone in the family has been trying to recreate this delicious coffee cake for years. It is moist and very flavorful. I added the strawberries because I like it a little sweeter. Rhubarb is an ingredient that you don't see used very often any more, but those of us who do use it always love to find new ways to spread the love."
Watch video tips and tricks
2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup cold coffee
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups chopped rhubarb
1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
I often make strawberry rhubarb pie and wanted to try something new. Dolloped with cream cheese frosting, sliced strawberries and pecans. Everyone at the party loved it. Thank you for sharing Grandma Moyer's recipe!
I thought this would be much tangier than it is. If I make it again, I will replace the strawberries with more rhubarb - and, I will lessen the sugar. Otherwise, a VERY moist cake. A dollop or two of whipped cream helped, by the way.

Everybody loved it!
Thank You Thank You Thank You Bobbie for finding this recipe! This was the best Rhubarb Strawberry recipe we have ever tried! Melt in your mouth creamy texture. Perfectly sweat and moist! We will most definitely make this again and again!
Very good! I skipped the berries, and used whipped cream on top. I forgot the brown sugar and pecans, but it's still fabulous! A hit at home
excellant My 1st time ever eating rhubarb. I will definitely make this again
I lost my recipe for rhubarb cake. This one is very close & I love the addition of strawberries.
A hit, even with my picky kids :o) Will definitely make this again. Thanks for sharing
