Health & nutrition
With a new school year fast approaching, it is a great time to set goals together as a family and one of the areas that I believe is of utmost importance is dinner time.
As parents we all worry about our children's nutrition and fighting dinnertime battles is a point of stress in a lot of families. One of the most important things we can do as a family is to eat together at the end of the day. Studies show that families who eat together save money, have better nutrition outcomes and develop higher order social skills.
In 2008 a study by Dr Rebecca Huntley titled "Because Mealtimes Matter", the quantitative survey found that 86 per cent of families believed that eating together at mealtimes was important and that the family meal still retains much of its symbolic power. Yet with so many external pressures such as after school activities, one or both parents working long hours and the differing needs of young children, teenagers and parents, actually seeing this togetherness is far from a reality for many families.
But it's not only about the frequency of getting together. The report found that as much as 93 per cent of families surveyed ate together, 77 per cent of those getting together more than five times per week. Perhaps more important than sitting down together is the quality of the time spent enjoying food, talking about each others days and having interesting and varied conversations on a daily basis.
Dinner can be a crucial time to have everyone in the household together in one place at one time. The study found that extending dinnertime to beyond the average 25 minutes would have large benefits for fostering good communication within families.
Eating together also provides an opportunity for adults and older children to model good eating behaviours in front of younger children. The biggest battle at our dinner table is getting children to stop omitting whole food groups from their diet. My daughter struggles to eat any kind of protein whereas my son refuses to eat any sort of vegetable. Since our family has made the commitment to eat together more often, it has been easier to convince fussy eaters to at least try their least favourite foods when they can clearly see others at the table with balanced plates.
Modelling healthy eating habits at the dinner table also extends to sensible portion sizes. Did you know that children as young as 5 can be allowed to choose how much food they would like to fill their plate with? By eating sensible amounts yourself, younger children learn that it's okay to go back for seconds of vegetables and salads, but it's more sensible to have just one serving of proteins and starchy foods. Also it's important not to pressure children to finish everything on their plates, they are luckily equipped with the ability to stop eating when they are full. Foster this skill now and it is likely to continue into adulthood and stay with them for life.
Here are a few helpful ideas to help get you started:
- Plan your meals. Having a weekly plan takes all the daily thought and angst out of dinnertime. Equally, make sure you have shopped for the week ahead, ensuring that everything you need to make a healthy dinner is on hand.
- Let all family members chose at least one meal that they would like to eat that week. Personal investment is helpful in eating compliance. It also takes the pressure off just one person being responsible for coming up with all meal ideas.
- Consider time-saving cooking methods such as using a slow cooker or keeping meals simple and healthy, for example, grilled meats and steamed vegetables are an easy option. A meal doesn't have to take you hours to prepare for it to be nutritious and tasty.
- Use weekends to prepare meals for the freezer to simply reheat after a long day at work or on busy afternoons with the kids.
- Some packaged or convenience meals are okay to use, such as bags of salad or marinated meat, just make sure you mix and match these with your own fresh foods. Sometimes having just one component of a meal pre-prepared can take the pressure off at dinner time.
- Switch off the TV and surrender all devices (yes that includes you too. No checking emails or Facebook on your phone!).
- Eat at the dinner table and not on the couch. Being around the table encourages eye contact and conversation.
- Try and get everyone to help with one aspect of the meal. It could be in the planning, meal preparation, setting the table or cleaning. This reinforces the notion that dinner is a family experience and it's not just one person's job.

Saturday Night Live: Will Ferell/Green Day (season finale)
by Annie Wu, posted May 17th 2009 12:40PM
(S34E23) Wow. Way to go, Will Ferrell. Maybe they should just bring back Saturday Night Live alumni for season finales from now on, because this episode was spectacular. Ferrell brought back some old favorites and a slew of famous faces, from the familiar to the inexplicable, including Amy Poehler, Tom Hanks, Anne Hathaway and Artie Lange. Here are some video highlights from the evening (Hulu vids are US only. Sorry, kids... you can also watch these videos at NBC's website).
Saturday Night Live: Anne Hathaway/The Killers - VIDEOS
by Annie Wu, posted Oct 5th 2008 2:02PM
(S34E04) This season so far has been more than a little iffy, but Anne Hathaway managed to make things slightly less painful. Even though the writing still wasn't quite spot-on, Hathaway's enthusiasm brought a light to the show that made even the most irritating sketches a bit more bearable. Honestly, I had my doubts about her hosting abilities, mainly because her good girl giddiness clashes heavily with my black-hearted bitchiness, but I didn't mind her. I'm sure she could even easily make the jump from "pretty good" to "absolutely spectacular," given the right material. Also, she managed to read the cue cards without looking like a complete idiot, which most other hosts have somehow turned into a massive ordeal lately. Mmm, literacy plus natural reading: a combination so deliciously rare, the writers don't even know what to do with it.
Right Now on Cinematical

The folks at our sister site Cinematical are working hard to give you news and reviews of the best -- and worst -- the silver screen has to offer. Here are some of their latest musings on the latest blockbusters, indies, and everything in between:
- Disney puts out a creepy internal memo about Beverly Hills Chihuahua, which includes the word "doggy-rific."
- There's talk about a remake of Angel Heart. Here's hoping that they bring back the surgically-enhanced Mickey Rourke; it'll make the movie even weirder than the original.
- Here are seven horror remakes that don't suck.
- Four funny movie-related images from The Simpsons. Boba Fett freezing the family in carbonite is the best of the four.
- An audio interview with Anne Hathaway. What's she more embarrassed about, her jailbird ex or Get Smart?
- Blind people protest the movie Blindness. Go figure.
Get Smart on the big screen - a movie review
by Allison Waldman, posted Jun 24th 2008 11:41AM
I went to see Get Smart the other day. Judging by the box office numbers, I wasn't alone. Of course, I was curious about how one of my favorite TV shows from the '60s would be translated to the big screen. Would it be an inventive retelling in the tradition of The Fugitive, Maverick and The Addam's Family, or would it make me want to weep in horror like the dreadful I Spy, Bewitched, The Wild, Wild West and The Avengers? (And that's only the tip of the awful iceberg).
Would you believe it if I told you Get Smart falls somewhere in between? I could use the line many other reviewers have copped; you know, "The new Get Smart missed it by that much." Yes, well, it's true. Get Smart is not great on the big screen. It's okay. Nothing too shameful, but neither is it that inspired or wickedly built on the premise of the original situation comedy.

Alan Arkin joins Carell and Hathaway on Get Smart movie
by Joel Keller, posted Feb 28th 2007 1:41PM
Fresh off his Supporting Actor Oscar win for Little Miss Sunshine, Alan Arkin has been cast in the new movie version of Get Smart, which Adam first mentioned last fall. Arkin has been signed to play the Chief of CONTROL, the spy agency for which Maxwell Smart and Agent 99 work. The Chief was played by Edward Platt in the classic TV version of the show, and having the grouchy Arkin play the role of Max's exasperated boss seems like a good fit.
Get Smart coming to theaters
by Adam Finley, posted Nov 21st 2006 6:01PM
Hollywood has yet again dipped into the Pot of Unoriginal Ideas with the Ladle of Mediocrity, so hold out your bowls like poor Dickensian orphans, America for a steaming pile of Get Smart, the movie.
Perhaps with Steve Carell cast in the role originally made famous by the late Don Adams, this movie might be worth seeing, but when is the incessant retooling of old TV shows into feature films going to stop? Has the entertainment system become so masturbatory that it can't even look beyond itself anymore for fresh, new ideas?
At any rate, it was reported recently that Anne Hathaway has also been added to the cast in the role of Agent 99. Peter Segal (Tommy Boy, 50 First Dates) is directing the film, which begins shooting in March.

Albuquerque police are searching for Daryl Martinez, 19, after a deadly shooting in northeast Albuquerque early Saturday.
Officers were dispatched to 6100 Harper Drive Northeast before 2:30 a.m. in reference to several gunshot calls.
Upon arrival, police found James Lucero, 27, was bleeding from the chest area, was not moving and appeared to be deceased. Rescue arrived on scene and Lucero was pronounced deceased.
According to the criminal complaint, Martinez, Lucero, and a group of people were listening to music. One woman told police she could feel some kind of tension in the air between Martinez and Lucero.
The woman did not witness the shooting, but said she heard four or five gunshots shortly after James and another male decided to leave the apartment and were walked out by a another female.
Another witness told police she turned around and saw Martinez holding a gun.
An arrest warrant for Martinez was issued Sunday and detectives are working to apprehend him.
Anyone with information on Martinez or his whereabouts is urged to call APD at (505)-242-2677.

Pouting 'Posh' star, to globetrotting footballer's wife, to fashion icon and designer...now Victoria Beckham wants to be 'nice'
Monday 29 April 2013
She became known in the Nineties as the pouting 'Posh' popstar.
The next decade saw her transform into a permatanned, globetrotting footballer's wife. Now Victoria Beckham wants to be known for her clothing designs – but, more than that, just for being "nice".
While revealing a new line of fashion creations which are now garnering increasingly critical and commercial success, Beckham has also offered a rare insight into her perception of how she has been judged and often derided as one of Britain's most ubiquitous celebrities.
"Everyone thinks I'm going to be such a cow. I get it - I feel the same way when I see the pictures," she told an audience at the Vogue Festival in London yesterday, insisting: "I'm nice."
On stage in a design of her own creation and a towering pair of needle-thin heels, Beckham displayed a wit and warmth that is not often associated with her, saying "a lot of people had pre-conceptions" when she announced she was entering the fashion trade as a serious designer.
"I didn't set out to prove those wrong, just to prove to myself that I could do it. I'm a perfectionist and probably a complete pain in the neck to work with. I want to challenge myself fashion-wise then I get naked and make clothes on myself."
While the familiar narrative of the latter may allow a former popstar a spell in fashion, rarely has it been done with the level of good taste that Brand Beckham has come to exemplify - certainly in comparison with Geri Halliwell's designs for Next or Emma Bunton's childrenswear line for Argos.
Answering questions from Vogue's editor Alexandra Shulman, Beckham refused to douse speculation that she may take her clothes to the high-street in the future - something that those who cannot afford her £1,000 upward designs would surely welcome. "I'm a perfectionist, and a bit of a control freak," said the 39-year-old, who oversees every aspect of her business, but added: "The children are my priority."
Singling out her oldest son Brooklyn, 14, on the front row, she continued: "They always have been and always will be. It's no different for me to any working mum. I constantly feel guilty - it's getting the balance right. I often feel like I'm losing the plot - we all do. I love women and want them to feel empowered, confident, beautiful. I think, in general, there needs to be more women supporting women."

Recent Whitehouse Reviews
27 family members and me visited Jamaica in January 2015. We rented 3 homes in the same subdivsion but everyone, from sun up to sun down, gravitated to Fanatasea. That is because the amenities at Fantasea are incredible. Add to that the sea views from the open-air living quarters, from the balcony and from every room in the house. The property manager Marcia and housekeeper Sharon made sure that all of our needs were met. We requested an independent chef (which is available for hire) and he made us all 2 meals per day to die for. The chef and Sharon assisted us with the food shopping and made sure that the freshest foods, fish and fruits were always available to us. Sharon maintained the house spotlessly, making certain that bed linens and towels were refreshed daily. The grounds at Fantasea are lush with many tropical flowers and palm trees. The house is on a hill which makese for great daily exercises: walking, jogging or running after nonstop rum punch drinks and two decadent meals per day. The owner, Rudy, is a great and fair business man. Rudy we loved your home, loved its architectural design and your decorating style. Marcia, Sharon and Chef Elvis, thanks for extending yourself to us and making our trip forever memorable. WE WILL BE Back!! Only not nearly so many of us at one time!!!
Awesome stay at Point-of-View Villa!!!!
What an awesome week we had in sunny, wonderful Jamaica, and Point-of-View Villa did not disappoint!! It is truly a 'point-of-breath-taking-views'. My husband and a group of his closest friends celebrated his milestone birthday and staying at the villa made our total experience a fantastic one. Thank you Tom (owner) for all your great suggestions regarding staying at the villa and for being so available, patient and highly responsive to our many emails before arriving in JA. Your staff is incredible...friendly, gracious, trustworthy, and so caring. We hit it off with them all: Omar - a highly skilled, safe, dependable, knowledgeable and in every way professional driver, who patiently drove us to all places we visited, and took the time to wait; Roll - your house-manager and chef: what a wonderful cook - we enjoyed ALL his various dishes and his friendly personality; and Chuka who kept our rooms and the villa very clean. We cannot express all our "thank you's" enough. The gated community of private villas was a fantastic find off the beaten path. Some of our surprises were walking daily in the hills and finding Elaine's Mountainview Chatteau at the top of the hill for additional breathtaking views and great food and drinks. Sandals Whitehouse, just a few minutes away was also a good birthday dinner celebration venue...it made our evening unique and even more special. Thanks to Omar for driving us to do grocery shopping, the banks, Reggae SumFest, Bluefields beach, Negril, MOBAY, Dunns River Falls in Ocho Rios, and Whitehouse village. Thanks to Roll also for the additional (daily) grocery shopping he did for us. We wish you all the very best and plan on visiting again soon.

Saturday, 19 Feb 2011 11:06 AM
CAIRO (AP) — Moammar Gadhafi's forces fired on mourners in the eastern city of Benghazi, wiped out a protest encampment and clamped down on Internet service throughout Libya Saturday as the regime tried to squelch calls for an end to the ruler's 42-year grip on power.
Libyan protesters were back on the street for the fifth straight day, but Gadhafi has taken a hard line toward the dissent that has ripped through the Middle East and swept him up with it.
Snipers fired on thousands of people gathered in Benghazi, a focal point of the unrest, to mourn 35 protesters who were shot on Friday, a hospital official said. At least one person was killed Saturday and a dozen more shot in the head and chest, he said.
"Now we have youth coming to the hospital to donate blood," he said. "We are running out of supplies."
Like most Libyans who have talked to The Associated Press during the revolt, the hospital official spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisal.
Before Saturday's violence, Human Rights Watch had estimated at least 84 people have been killed.
Just after 2 a.m. local time in Libya, the U.S.-based Arbor Networks security company detected a total cessation of online traffic in the North African country. Protesters confirmed they could not get online.
Information is tightly controlled in Libya, where journalists cannot work freely, and activists this week have posted videos on the Internet that have been an important source of images of the revolt. Other information about the protests has come from opposition activists in exile. Egyptian officials briefly tried to cut Internet service during the uprising that toppled Hosni Mubarak on Feb. 11, but that move was unsuccessful.
Libya is more isolated, however, and the Internet is one of the few links to the outside world. The Cairo-based Arabic Network for Human Rights Information released a report back in 2004 that said nearly 1 million people among Libya's population of about 6 million had Internet access at the time. That was just three years after Internet service had been extended to the public.
About 5 a.m. Saturday, special forces attacked hundreds of protesters, including lawyers and judges, camped out in front of the courthouse in Benghazi, Libya's second-largest city.
"They fired tear gas on protesters in tents and cleared the areas after many fled carrying the dead and the injured," one protester said over the phone.
Doctors in Benghazi said Friday that 35 bodies had been brought to the hospital following attacks by security forces backed by militias, on top of more than a dozen killed the day before. Standing in front of Jalaa Hospital morgue, a witness said that the bodies bore wounds from being shot "directly at the head and the chests."
Residents of the city set up neighborhood patrols on Saturday, after police left the streets.
"We don't see a single policeman in the streets, not even traffic police," a lawyer in Benghazi said. People regarded the disappearance of the police as an ominous sign, fearing that pro-government forces would soon follow up the encampment raid with house-to-house attacks.
Switzerland-based Libyan activist Fathi al-Warfali said that several other activists had been detained including Abdel-Hafez Gougha, a well-known organizer who was being held after security forces stormed his house in a night raid.
Gadhafi is facing the biggest popular uprising of his autocratic reign, with much of the action in the country's impoverished east.
The nation has huge oil reserves but poverty is a significant problem. U.S. diplomats have said in newly leaked memos that Gadhafi's regime seems to neglect the east intentionally, letting unemployment and poverty rise to weaken opponents there.
The British Foreign Office on Saturday warned against all but essential travel to five cities in eastern Libya where demonstrations have been concentrated, including Benghazi.
A female protester in Tripoli, the capital city to the west, said it was much harder to demonstrate there. Police were out in force and Gadhafi was greeted rapturously when he drove through town in a motorcade on Thursday. "People are under siege and those who dare to show up are arrested," she said.
Earlier in the week, forces from the military's elite Khamis Brigade moved into Benghazi, Beyida and several other cities, residents said. They were accompanied by militias that seemed to include foreign mercenaries, they added. Several witnesses reported French-speaking fighters, believed to be Tunisians or sub-Saharan Africans, among militiamen wearing blue uniforms and yellow helmets.
The Khamis Brigade is led by Gadhafi's youngest son Khamis Gadhafi, and U.S. diplomats in leaked memos have called it "the most well-trained and well-equipped force in the Libyan military." The witnesses' reports that it had been deployed could not be independently confirmed.

Sunlight had started to pierce through the windows of the library, slowly banishing away the darkness which had gripped it for the past few hours. Twilight sat at her table, flipping close the last page of the red book which sat in front of her. Her mane and tail were both unkempt and had quite a few strands sticking out, signifying how long she had stayed up.
Her library was once again in a complete mess. Papers, books and every single kind of material she could get her hooves on lay scattered across the wooden floor of her living room. Empty cups of cocoa were stacked to her left while a wax stump of what used to be a candle sat to her right, having burnt out hours ago.
"That's it. That's the last book," Twilight grumbled before slamming her face onto the book in front of her. "None of my books hold the answer to the two riddles," she said in a frustrated tone.
"Of all the weeks Spike had to be in Canterlot, why did it have to be this week?" Twilight continued to complain before slow

As the Wheel Turns
Snips and Snails were dripping sweat as they struggled to drag along the heavy wooden cart that dug into the ground. The cart plowed up the dirt and left a sizable trench in its wake. They looked at one another, tired and worn out from pulling the new tyrant of ponyville to the edge of the forcefield. They stopped for a moment to take a quick break. As soon as they had stopped, a glowing red whip snapped at their backsides from mid-air.
"Pull you fools!" the whip snapped it at them twice more. "Somepony set off the magic forcefield and Trixie intends to punish them!" shouted Trixie as she prepared to whip her subjects once more for good measure. She did not have to go through with the final whip, as the two simpletons had begun to move twice as fast as they previously were. Snips craned his head back towards the unrelenting whip wielder.
"But wouldn't it be faster if we had some wheels?" he asked nervously, his voice higher than usual.
Trixie's head snapped up and he

As the ground collapsed beneath the young dragon, he found himself doing the only thing he could think to do: Stay on top. He quickly lost track of his winged companion, as they both tumbled down into the gorge below.
The rock Spike was on, he clung to with all his might, refusing to let go. It wasn't long before the stone impacted the ground and shattered, knocking the wind out of him. He tumbled across the rubble that arrived before, as giant stones fell around him, and on top of him.
The two Crusaders and four recruits watched their friends fall into the gorge below, helpless to save them. It wasn't long before the ground stopped breaking apart before them. Likely stopped by the tree roots below, thought Apple Bloom.
The yellow filly squirmed out of her friend's grip, and ran to the new cliff edge, looking down into the gorge below. "I don't see them!" she cried.

A young lavender mare was sitting in the library, looking over one of her books, when her scaly friend came walking over to her. He wasn't interested in conversation, he wasn't interested in reading, he just wanted to be near the mare which he cared for so much.
"Hey Twilight," Spike said with a smile.
Quickly, the lavender unicorn looked up to him and returned the smile. "Hey Spike, what is it?"
"Oh nothing," Spike said as he sat down. "I just wanted to be with my best friend in the world."
Twilight couldn't help but blush. "What has gotten into you Spike? It's like you're a completely different dragon."
Spike made a slightly mischievous grin. "Is that necessarily a bad thing?"
"Oh no. I love it, but I just want to know what's making you act like this."
"It's nothing really. I'm just glad to be seeing you more often."
"Well that's kind of obvious," smirked Twilight.

Rarity was quite nervous as she trotted with the two boys on their way to Fluttershy's cottage. She didn't know Cerebral Comet that well, but she did know she should. Not only was this stallion her boyfriend's new Guardian ad Draco, he was likely going to stay in town indefinitely, and might need to make a few friends.
There were plenty of suspicions that Comet was sent to replace Twilight. Which was certainly a disturbing thought to the young unicorn. It meant the Princess actually thought Twilight was replaceable. To think any of them could be easily replaced gave her chills.
The silence was nearly killing the mare, so she decided to break it the only way she knew how.
"So, Comet, how'd you get this assignment?" She asked bluntly.

The wind was strong enough to allow me to glide for most of the distance between Cloud Kicker's house and Ponyville Library. Not like I wasn't in the mood to fly or nothing, its just I was really tired. Maybe because I hadn't eaten anything all day and that I've been flying around from sunrise to now... I usually fly for long periods of time, but it doesn't effect me as much as it is now. Maybe Twilight had some grub I could mooch off of.
It didn't take me long to get to the Library and to land in front of the door in a perfect spiral. My hoofed rapped on the door and soon Twilight appeared.
"Oh, hello Rainbow." Twilight said warmly, yet she looked tired...probably been studying, as usual. "Hey there, Twilight. I just came to drop something off for you."

A certain pegasus flew back into Ponyville to find the entire town completely deserted. She flew all around, obviously checking the homes of her friends. Twilight's Golden Oaks Library was all books and no ponies, every dessert in Sugarcube Corner was left untouched by Pinkie Pie, Sweet Apple Acres had no work of Applejack's done, the Carousel Boutique had no Rarity for all those dresses, and Fluttershy's cottage didn't have a single living thing even living there.
Once Rainbow Dash checked everywhere else, she did find one caped figure standing in front of the town square. Next to the figure was a life sized statue of Rainbow Dash, but it was wearing a helmet, a red cape with a golden zipper, red strap on and a cloud making a yellow lightning bolt on it, and four golden gauntlets with tiny white wings for each hoof of the statue. The helmet and gauntlets were rainbow colored and had golden coverings to assure they were made of metal.

Strange... the trip had never taken this long before. When she'd taken over Apple Bloom's room, she'd taken these steps two at a time and never broken a sweat. Now she felt weak trying to walk half a flight.

A white unicorn in royal robes and sparkling crown stood atop a snow-spotted peak. The blizzard responsible for it had been thwarted a full week prior--and hopefully, forever--but from her vantage point, its effects could still easily be seen across the horizon.
In its half-melted state, the snow highlighted the flora of the land below, causing several colors of the rainbow to shine under the moonlight.
Princess Platinum smiled. They almost hadn't done it. Heaven knew she hadn't contributed all that much to their cause.
At that moment, however, she at last heard the hoofsteps of one who had.
"Ahh, Clover the Clever," Platinum greeted the brown-robed violet unicorn who had just traversed the peak's leading trail. "Thank you for showing. I... did not wish to inconvenience you whilst you were napping."

Up in the tallest tower in the city, Twilight found herself trapped within the confines of a black-crystal prison, the gems risen up from the ground, blocking any means of escape for the lavender unicorn. Just outside, Spike started to feel nervous. His eyes darted from side to side, his feet moved up and down like two, small pistons.
