About the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati
Sisters of Charity Fact Sheet [printable version]
September 2014The Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati is an apostolic Catholic community of women religious that exists to carry out the Gospel of Jesus Christ through service and prayer in the world.

The Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati are joined by 196 Associates, lay women and men, who reside throughout the United States. The Sister/Associate relationship was established in 1973 so that individuals could partner with the Sisters in responding to the Gospel in the spirit of St. Elizabeth Bayley Seton.
Nonprofit Ministries
Since the Community was founded, the Sisters of Charity have sponsored numerous schools, hospitals, orphanages and social service agencies. They continue to sponsor the following ministries, which are all in Cincinnati except Light of Hearts Villa, located in Bedford, Ohio.
Seton High School (1854) is a comprehensive, Catholic high school for girls. Originally founded as Mount St. Vincent Academy, it was renamed Seton High School in 1927.
St. Joseph Home (1873) is a residential facility for children and adults with severe mental and multiple physical disabilities. Founded as St. Joseph Infant Asylum, it also served for many years as St. Joseph Infant and Maternity Home.
Mount St. Joseph University (1920) is a coeducational, Catholic liberal arts university serving 2,300 students.
Bayley (1989) is a continuing care retirement community that offers a full spectrum of lifestyle options that promote engagement, wellness and vitality. Bayley offers progressive services for adults through two service lines: Bayley Access, a collection of programs enabling older adults still living at home to enjoy community and fellowship, and Bayley Living, which provides varied residential options for mature adults of all faiths.
Light of Hearts Villa (1989) is an assisted living facility for senior adults. It was founded by the Vincentian Sisters of Charity of Bedford, Ohio, who merged with the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati in June 2004. The facility is a 50-50 partnership with the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine Health System.
DePaul Cristo Rey High School (2009) provides an opportunity for young women and men with economic need to obtain a Catholic, college preparatory education made affordable through an innovative corporate work study program.
After a long history of sponsoring hospitals and a health-care system, the Sisters of Charity joined with 10 other congregations in 1996 to create and sponsor Catholic Health Initiatives (CHI), a national health-care organization.

Meant for all-mountain and freestyle use with its mixed twin/directional shape, the board also features a Cucumber Camber profile. With this, the board is smooth when flat and has plenty of grip, but on turns, landings, and anything else the edges are rockered to avoid catching.

Hockey 4 Hope
Every Spring since 2010, grown men have been lacing up their skates to play a spirited hockey game for a great cause. Donning pink and black jerseys that display the names of loved ones who have battled cancer, dozens of players join in the Annual Hockey 4 Hope Tournament which benefits the Geller Oncology Fund at Lourdes Hospital Foundation. Cheered on in 2014 by some 700 spectators at the SUNY Broome Ice Center, the tourney raised awareness for cancer and nearly $15,000.00 for the Geller Fund. More than 40 sponsors helped to underwrite the event, and assist in making the program a huge success.
As quoted from the 2014 Hockey 4 Hope tournament program, "We are a group of washed up hockey players trying to make a difference." And each year, they make a huge difference in the lives of those patients being treated at Lourdes Hospital and Broome Oncology. Brian Laing, a member of the Lourdes Hospital Foundation Board and founder of the event, established Hockey 4 Hope in honor of his late Aunt Connie who lost her battle with breast cancer in 2006.
The Geller Oncology Fund provides financial assistance to patients receiving treatment at Lourdes' Regional Cancer Center and Broome Oncology. Visit our online donation page to support the fund.

Over three quarters of UK companies are planning to expand overseas as they look to take advantage of renewed economic prosperity, a report has found.
Investment in new technology, especially in communications, is central to this expansion as the world become a more connected place, with 'going global' viewed by the overwhelming majority of businesses as key to their future growth, according to the Global Pioneering Spirit survey conducted by mobile operator Truphone.
The survey, which covered 650 UK businesses employing up to 500 workers, found that 77% of British businesses say they are planning to expand internationally within the next two years, with 80% of these businesses citing the economic upturn as the primary catalyst for change.
It also found that investment in new or improved technology will form a central part of any proposed expansion, with more than three quarters (76%) planning to spend in order to grow their business.
More than half (59%) of those that have yet to expand globally said they considered insufficient technology or telecoms infrastructure as a barrier to achieving this ambition, and of those businesses that intend to 'go global', 60% said they intended to improve their communication infrastructure, and more than three quarters (76%) are planning to invest in other related technologies.
"Historically the UK has been a nation of global pioneers, with the development of international trade a major driving force behind this," said Rob Jones, European Managing Director at Truphone.
"We're now living in the modern age, where technology has enabled a significant change in the way we communicate with one another around the world. So there's a particular paradox in the fact that the major barrier UK businesses face is in getting the best from existing communications infrastructure, with many looking to invest in this to make their ambitions a reality."
Truphone customer the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) was cited as a success because of its touring.
Using Truphone, the LSO's 120 members made more calls than normal and relied less on SMS messages and mail.
"It's not necessarily about cash savings," said Jeremy Garside, the LSO's head of technology, "it's about being able to use the kit in a way that makes sense."
"Truphone is looking at this issue of internationalisation and has a specific set of technologies that are targeted for it."

Welcome to Clickbank University
As a beta tester I can confirm that Clickbank University will help others avoid many sleepless nights and wasting money on worthless products.
Whether you are familiar with Clickbank or not, it is the largest depository of digital products on the web. Clickbank is defined by Google as: ClickBank is a privately held online marketplace for digital information products. It aims to serve as a connection between digital content creators and affiliate marketers, who then promote them to consumers. ..
People from all over the world can sign up to be either a Affiliate or a Vendor. You might ask yourself what is a vendor? Well clickbank defines it as: " A vendor is someone who has created a digital or shippable media product they wish to sell online through ClickBank. " Likewise an Affiliate is defined as: " An affiliate is someone who promotes a product or service to potential customers, in exchange for a commission on the sale when one occurs. "
What you may ask is their dream? "fundamentally to increase the number of people receiving checks from ClickBank every two weeks and increase the value of those checks. "
Clickbank University is being taught by Adam Horwitz and Justin Atlan. Adam Horwitz the creator Mobile Monopoly along with his partner Justin Atlan have put together a step by step how to with Clickbank University. It is a great tool for newbies to learn properly the do's and don't of affiliate marketing for starters.
If affiliate Marketing is not your cup of tea, then Clickbank University goes into minute detail via video presentations on how to build your own product that you are passionate about.
Once people have a finished product the lessons in Clickbank University continue to marketing. split testing, traffic generation and much, much more. All with the expertise of both Adam and Justin who are using these methods today in their own businesses. Not methods that worked in the past if they've worked at all like some of the so called guru's try to sell.
I wish there was something along these lines when I first started 10 years ago. It most definitely would have saved me many sleepless nights, a ton of hair that has been pulled out and thousands of dollars wasted on products that never worked. This will definitely help to fulfill its creators dream.
I have past experience with both Adam and Justin, being beta tester for their Think Bold Group. Their style of teaching is extremely empowering and highly successful.
In my previous 8 years of heartaches and disappointments in throwing good money down the drain on worthless products as we all have done. It was truly amazing how they kept their word and actually helped me to make money online.
I have complete trust in both Adam and Justins abilities to turn the lives of people around for the better with the efforts and energies they pour into their teachings. Clickbank University is a fantastic opportunity for the beginner to learn properly how to do what is needed in order to make money online today.

Safe haven in crime-riddled Oceanside neighborhood gets a facelift
Oceanside Boys & Girls Clubs sees attendance drop
OCEANSIDE, Calif. - The temporary home of the Oceanside Boys & Girls Clubs currently looks like an abandoned home, with paint chipping off corners, cabinet covers missing, holes in the ceiling and stains on the floor.
"It's not a good situation," said Oceanside Boys & Girls Clubs CEO Tammy Walz.
Yet dozens of children go there every day before and after school, including 13-year-old Julles Thompson.
"When everyone's in here it's cramped," said Thompson.
Two weeks ago, a girl Julles' age and a 15-year-old boy were shot and killed less than a mile away. Walz said the neighborhood has seen its fair share of gangs, crime and murders.
"Parents have told us we're their safe haven. We're here so that parent feels comfortable when they have to work until five, six, seven o'clock at night," she said.
That's why Walz said it's important a $650,000 renovation is completed on the old clubhouse.
In the past few months, the Clubs have watched attendance dip from 125 kids a day to as little as 45.
"This isn't the best place, the best situation for us," Walz said of the temporary quarters.
Crews are renovating the bigger building, which was in as bad shape as the temporary facility.
A bank loan is paying for the renovation, and Walz said they hope to gather donations to pay off the loan.
She said it's a worthwhile investment to continue making the Clubs a safe haven for Oceanside children.

Message from the Chair
All academic departments of medicine share a common, three-part mission of patient care, research, and education. But being the largest department in a medical school that grew from a world-renowned hospital means that for us, there is really only one unified mission — unsurpassed excellence in patient care. Exceptional research and education programs are prerequisites to fulfilling that mission.
The esteem in which our faculty members are held by their peers is evident in our many invitations to serve as leaders of local, national, and international societies and from the patients referred to us from throughout the metropolitan area, the country, and the world.
Our peers have singled out Mount Sinai Department of Medicine faculty for many honors, including the election of 14 faculty to the Association of American Physicians and 22 to the American Society of Clinical Investigators.
In 2014, New York magazine named 48 Department of Medicine physicians from the Mount Sinai Health System to its "Best Doctors" list. In U.S. News & World Report's 2014-2015 "Best Hospitals" issue, Mount Sinai is ranked among the top hospitals in the nation. The Department of Medicine had five of its subspecialties ranked, including cancer, digestive disorders, cardiology, kidney disease, diabetes and endocrinology.
The Mount Sinai Department of Medicine is home to a residency program many have described as one of the best in the country. The remarkable students who compete for placement in the program and the success of our residents after graduation exemplify this claim. Our graduates pursue scholarship to enhance quality of care, advance medical research, and strengthen medical education. Many of our former trainees hold leadership positions in academic medicine.
In research, the department received $71 million from the National Institutes of Health in 2008 placing it among the top 20 departments of medicine in the country. Many Department of Medicine faculty were instrumental in the success of Mount Sinai's application to become a member of the federal Clinical and Translational Science Award Consortium, which resulted in a $34.6 million grant to the School of Medicine. Department of Medicine faculty lead seven of the 14 interdisciplinary research institutes established by Mount Sinai's dean, Dennis S. Charney, MD, to facilitate breakthrough science.
Whether you are a current or prospective patient, referring physician, resident, fellow, graduate student, or supporter, it is my hope that as you traverse this site, you will discover all that the department has to offer and that you will be inspired to strengthen your connection to the Samuel Bronfman Department of Medicine at Icahn School of Medicine.

Hairy Italian hunk Enzo Grimaldi strips off his bathing trunks for a dip in the La Posada hot tub. Real-life lover Kirk Ziegler isn't far behind. Grimaldi immediately begins to feast on Ziegler's nipples then deep throats his long uncut cock. As the water swirls and bubbles, Grimaldi dives into Ziegler's hole, tongue first. Ziegler turns the tables on his partner -- literally. He hoists Grimaldi onto a series of pieces of patio furniture and fucks his big round muscle butt until they both explode.

Map: Hayfever sufferers warned to expect very high pollen levels
Posted: June 24, 2014
Comments (0)
Here is the latest weekly pollen forecast from theNational Pollen and Aerobiology Research Unit.
The map above shows the latest air pollution index information from Defra (7am).
Pollen type | Level | Notes |
Tree Pollen | Low | The lime tree pollen season is just starting but the risk will be generally low this week. |
Grass Pollen | Very High | A high to very high grass pollen risk during warm dry weather in most regions. Cool winds onto northern and eastern coasts will reduce the risk there. Later in the week some unsettled weather in the north-west will lower the risk but the south-east is likely to retain the high counts. |
Fungal Spore | High | |
Weed Pollen | High | Nettle will follow a similar pattern to grass while the other weeds flowering will be plantain and dock. |

A great way to cut drywall is to use a utility knife (and a straightedge) to cut through the first paper layer (and into the gypsum a little as well). Then with a quick snap with your hands, you can break the gypsum right at your scored cut.
The wall board will now only be held together by the other paper sheet. You can bend the board to something like 90 degrees, and use your utility knife to free-cut the remaining paper backing and you are done. The 90 degree angle guides the blade so you don't need to use a straightedge for this cut With a little practice it becomes surprisingly easy. I cannot believe that I used to cut drywall with a jigsaw before.

Recent Panama City Reviews
A View That Doesn't Disappoint!
I wanted to take my best friend down to Panama City for a few days of R & R. Having never stayed in this location before, I was a bit uneasy about what we would encounter upon our arrival. However, as soon as we walked into the condo all my fears were set aside! The first thing that draws your attention is an amazing view of the aqua blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico, with its rhythmic waves lazily rolling up onto the powdery white sands of one of the most beautiful beaches in the world! It's definitely a view that doesn't disappoint...and neither does the interior appointments of Barry's condo - with its freshly painted walls, updated kitchen appliances and countertops, and comfy new furnishings! Everything was clean and well-maintained. The condo is located on the 5th floor, which is in my opinion, the perfect spot - high enough up to get the great views in both directions, yet low enough to use the steps when the elevators are full or you just want to get some exercise! All in all, I would give 2 thumbs up for this condo and it's many amenities! Definitely a place I would book again! Well done Barry!
Perfect Condo for Us!
When we walked into the condo, the four of us went "Wow!" We were so very impressed with the style, layout and cleanliness. The whole condo is decorated beautifully. The bedrooms were a very nice size and the baths were extra large for a condo. We liked the bedroom layout because both baths are between the bedrooms which gives extra privacy for each couple. My favorite thing was the really large patio. It had two lounge chairs with a table between them as well as a round table and four chairs. The table was a great place to play cards and still view and hear the waves.
Above all, Patricia was so nice and very easy to contact anytime. The cost of staying in the condo is very fair....so much better than a hotel room! Home away from home.
From the beginning to the end of this stay, my family had an INCREDIBLE time at the rental. Nick and Cindy communicated well, quickly, professionally, and answered any questions about the rental prior to my arrival. Cindy met me at the rental giving a walk through of the condo and explained the security codes to work the elevator. The rental was even better than the photos. Clean and stocked with all the necessities for a group of seven adults and three children. There were enough chairs for our group to eat together at the kitchen table. We could also divide up at the kitchen bar, coffee table in front of the TV, or spill out onto the balcony. The view from the guest rooms, the balcony, and pool were perfect of the close beach. We cooked inside, on the grille outside, and traveled to several nearby restaurants (Angelo's Steak House has the best 32oz. "t" bone) close to the rental. All the kitchen appliances worked and were clean from the coffee maker to the large refrigerator. The whole family loved the quick beach and pool access each day. We ALL felt like we had the beach and pool to ourselves everyday! The pool had many chairs and different types to support a large sitting. Our family enjoyed the pools shape with a two foot section for the kiddos and a five foot length for swimming adults. The pool was clean and did not sting with an over use of chlorine. The property was kept clean daily by a grounds keeper who must have been a ninja. We saw their handy work, but never the actual person. All the beds were comfortable, clean, and had many pillows and covers. There was plenty of bathroom space, the showers never ran out of hot water, the Jacuzzi tub worked properly, and the towels were plentiful. Although we felt like we had the place to ourselves, there were guest on the bottom floor; however, we never had a restless night nor a early wake up associated with thin walled construction. We frequently used the dishwasher, dryer, and washing machine during our stay, and the equipment never failed. There was trash receptacles were near the covered carport and there was room for all three of our vehicles in the driveway. The rental was one of the best we have used in our two year history with VRBO.com. I have already recommended this rental to others interested in visiting Panama City, Florida. We would LOVE to return next year ourselves!

News Releases
SUBJECT: | The Rise and Fall of Care of the Sick: A History and its Legacy | |
DATE: | March 22, 2006 |
The Margaret D. McLean 2006 Lecture in Nursing will be held Thursday, April 6, 2006 starting at 5 p.m. in the main auditorium of the Health Sciences Centre in St. John's. The lecture is part of the 40th anniversary celebrations of Memorial's School of Nursing and features Dr. Sioban Nelson, dean and professor of the Faculty of Nursing at the University of Toronto. Her topic is The Rise and Fall of Care of the Sick: A History and its Legacy. Admission is free and parking is available in Lot 9 off Westerland Road. Refreshments will be served following the lecture.
Dr. Nelson's talk will address the problem of too few nurses and the increasing need for nurses. This problem is far deeper than a recruitment challenge to the nursing profession, explained Dr. Sandra LeFort, director of the School of Nursing at Memorial. "The bigger question rests with the place of care of the sick itself in contemporary society. Dr. Nelson's lecture will take a tour through the history of nursing and examine the social and political importance of care of the sick over time to shed light on these very contemporary concerns."
The Margaret D. McLean Lecture in Nursing honours the memory of Margaret McLean, the second director of the School of Nursing (1973-1984). She had a distinguished nursing career in practice and education and consulted both nationally and internationally.

It involved an investigation of non-planar, complex ("fat") geometric assemblies and their translation into the "flat" sheet material constructs to be produced using two-dimensional fabrication (laser cutting). Through iterative stages over four weeks, the students developed (and redeveloped) a tectonic, geometric, manufacturing and assembly logic for producing a final material construct for the end of the semester. The students began by devising an appropriate geometric description of the abstraction using developable, planar elements (polygons, triangles, ruled surfaces, circular/spherical approximations) and/or the object's three-dimensional isoparametric representation, contouring, or some other rationalization.

If you are already a guest or a member sign in below.
We asked readers about their own personal experiences and consulted several large external surveys of both doctors and patients to establish the most common gripes, and found that many of these annoyances are avoidable. By actively engaging with your doctor in a constructive way you'll build a better partnership and get better care. Here's CHOICE's guide to getting the best out of your next doctor's appointment.
See our Health section for helpful tips such as how to choose a good GP.
Especially if an appointment has been made for a specific time.Waiting rooms fill up. Patients arrive with a long list of ailments, queries and concerns - without booking a longer appointment; people present with what seem like simple issues that turn out to be more complex; emergency cases need to be fitted in; extra time may be needed for doing tests.From May 2010, the Medicare payment to doctors will increase for longer appointments, making it more attractive for them to spend a longer time with patients. However, the rise is only a couple of dollars so it might not make a great deal of difference, and if it does, it may eventuate in doctors seeing fewer patients.
Patients get frustrated when doctors don't look beyond the obvious diagnosis and treatments. "I had horrible dermatitis on my hands and kept being given creams to put on it. It never went away and I suffered for months. I hopped on Google and it suggested giving up milk/lactose. I did and my hands cleared up in less than two weeks. Coincidence? Maybe. But food allergies and intolerances are not uncommon - doctors should know or perhaps suggest these things, rather than just attempt to cure a particular symptom."
Some patients would prefer a pill to make all their problems go away, others would prefer constructive lifestyle advice or alternative therapies. If nothing is needed - they'd rather have nothing. Consumers express concerns that doctors sometimes don't know enough about medications they're prescribing, and are overly reliant on information from the drug companies. Many are also disappointed by the lack of information they receive about how to take the medicine and possible side effects.
Patients resent paying a full consultation fee just for a repeat prescription or referral renewal, which takes a matter of minutes. By contrast, doctors get frustrated when patients happily pay hundreds of dollars for alternative practitioners and therapies with no evidence they work, but complain about having to pay a few dollars for the Medicare gap.
6 Feb 2006 | The relationship you have with your doctor can be one of the most crucial in your life, particularly if you have a chronic condition or develop a serious illness.
11 Sep 2009 | Our reliance on medicines has dramatically increased, and mixing them can prove a dangerous cocktail. CHOICE explains who's at risk and why.
28 Dec 2013 | Read these widely held notions about everything from diet and exercise, to air travel and antioxidants.

While there is still a significant gap in terms of market share between the Zimbra email system and rival offerings from IBM and Microsoft, Zimbra in recent months has quietly emerged as the third largest email platform in the enterprise.
VMware is hoping to expand that market presence with an upgrade to Zimbra that can be more easily deployed as a software appliance on premise or in the cloud.
According to John Robb, senior director of Zimbra products and marketing, Zimbra is gaining momentum because it's significantly easier to set up and manage than rival email systems. In addition, Robb says that part of Zimbra's appeal is that it behaves very much like any other typical software-as-a-service (SaaS) application no matter where it's deployed.
Robb also notes that the vast majority of the instances of Zimbra have been deployed on top of a virtual machine, which is not nearly as common with other email system platforms.
Another core element of VMware's Zimbra strategy is to focus on core messaging functionality while partnering with companies such as Cisco and Mitel to deliver best-of-breed, real-time communications applications such as videoconferencing. That approach, says Robb, gives customers a lot of flexibility at a time when it's not at all clear what the future of the unified communications landscape will actually look like.
Whether VMware can close the gap between Zimbra and Exchange remains to be seen. But there is a lot of frustration in particular with the cost and complexity associated with deploying and managing Microsoft Exchange.
It's hard to definitively say for certain whether that frustration has reached a boiling-over point just yet. But it's safe to say that a lot more IT organizations these days are re-evaluating all their messaging options, especially at a time when many of them are thinking about moving their email systems into the cloud anyway. As that process continues to occur, VMware is betting that market incumbents such as Microsoft and IBM have a lot more to lose than gain.

If you clicked on the link because of the promises, it could mean you could use some extra money (sorry, none actually available).
It could mean you're a college student leaving the care of your parents. That may mean that you're also leaving the care of their wallet. Which is great. You want the independence baby, you've got it. And that probably means things are going to get a lot worse before they get better. Cause let's face it, our parents do a lot for us. I mean, like…yeah. I'm not sure if it can be expressed much more clearly than that. Picking up where they left off is a huge change.
At times we're forced to improvise. We skimp on the extras. I go shopping for clothes once a year instead of my usual two trips. I buy the cheaper food at the expense of the costly organic stuff. Not that I care, I could live off of butter for weeks and my metabolism wouldn't break a sweat. In this weeks episode of "How Andrew Can Avoid Spending Money," he got a haircut.
FROM HIS FRIEND. It's not incredibly drastic, but let me tell you, when I gave him the razor, I started to freak out. It didn't help that he kept muttering "Oops," under his breath and asking me if I had always had that bald patch. Thankfully if turned out well. I was both pleasantly surprised as well as triumphant in my attempts to escape a $15 fee. So now you can see the result yourself and let me know how it turned out (don't be too harsh, it was his first time).

Leadership, Diversity & Inclusion in Public Service: Insights from Scholarship
One in three Americans are people of color, yet minorities occupy just one in six leadership positions in state and federal government, nonprofits and foundations. In a report released with the National Urban Fellows, RCLA scholars illuminate research findings on organizational-level approaches to diversity that hold promise; the mixed outcomes of how organizations "do" diversity management; and different ways individuals and teams experience diversity. Yet limited empirical research has resulted in a dearth of evidence for what works in practice.

A Loss in the Nonprofit Battle Against "Modest, Passionate and Utterly Disorganized"
On the Stanford Social Innovation Review blog, RCLA Faculty Director Sonia Ospina argues that the unfolding case against Greg Mortenson, best-selling author of Three Cups of Tea, reinforces the perception of nonprofits as "modest, passionate and utterly disorganized" and outlines the benefits of accountability measures for nonprofits and the sector.

In Season: Carrots
by Dana Angelo White in In Season, September 14, 2009
Carrots have a bad rep as "rabbit food," but there's nothing boring about them. With all their flavor and health benefits, they're worth celebrating this time of year, and we've got recipes for the occasion — plus, the story behind baby carrots.
What, Where & When?
Appearing in farmers' markets as early as May, fresh carrots are available through December in some parts of the country. Even though orange is the classic color, you can find purple, yellow, red and white varieties. Carrots are also unique because they grow downward into the soil instead of upwards towards the sun.
Carrots can range in length from three to nine inches. Here's the truth: Most of the "baby carrots" you see in the grocery store are actually full-grown carrots that have been chopped and whittled down to to that miniature appearance. Some farmers do this so they can use up deformed carrots instead of tossing them. Because the carving process removes the outer layer of skin, carrot "babies" are dipped into a bath of chlorinated water before packaging to preserve freshness and kill bacteria. The process is considered safe, but you can always avoid it by cutting up your own full-size carrots. Read this USA Today article to learn more about the birth of baby carrots.
Nutrition Facts
You can eat a whole cup of carrots for fewer than 55 calories! They're also one of the best sources of beta-carotene around. That's the antioxidant form of vitamin A, which helps maintain good eyesight and protect the body from heart disease and certain types of cancer. Eating carrots will also give you fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K and potassium.
What To Do With Carrots
Don't get stuck on carrot sticks! Carrots' sweet and aromatic quality means they pair well with everything from brown sugar to curry powder to just a drizzle of olive oil and sea salt. Use them raw in salads, slaws, sandwiches and juices. I'm always amazed how delicious a classic shredded carrot salad with raisins, vinegar and spices can be.
Cooking carrots really brings out their sweetness. I love them roasted, grilled or boiled and mashed with other root veggies such as parsnips, turnips and sweet potatoes. If you've got a sweet tooth, try baking them into breads, cakes, muffins and cookies. They add natural sweetness and help to keep your baked goodies moist.
Shopping Tip: Choose carrots that are firm and brightly colored. Cut off the green leafy top, if it's attached, and store your bunches in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Carrots like the cold, so the bottom of the produce drawer is a great spot to stash them.

So can any of you recommend a good product? I just sanded my four calendar year previous cedar deck fully the wood looks stunning and I might prefer to stain it now but with many of the reviews i don't know which product to use. The deck gets lots of sunshine in summer and rain inside the winter months (Seattle). Thanks for your personal input
Thank you for all of the labor on this website. Ellie delights in working on research and it is simple to grasp why. Almost all hear all about the powerful manner you deliver sensible guidance via this web blog and even recommend contribution from some others on this subject while our favorite princess has always been learning a lot. Take advantage of the remaining portion of the year. Your carrying out a brilliant job.Hello there, just became aware of your blog through Google, and found that it's really informative. I am gonna watch out for brussels. I'll be grateful if you continue this in future. Many people will be benefited from your writing. Cheers!
You will feel very present, this post is really efficient, allow My spouse and i learned a lot of data, plus webdesign also is top notch. Thanks again for the spreading.
My brother is an extremely picky kid when it comes to veggies. If he sees a piece of onion in a tomato sauce he will get all huffy and pick it out. Thankfully he's getting better, but he's still not keen on zucchini, squash, peppers, tomatoes, or anything other than the simple peas, corn, and carrots. Our family also likes pasta as you said yours did as well. What I do is I'll make a dish of baked pasta (with the sauce and penne or rigatoni and cheese) and then grate in some zucchini or a little bit of spinach. If they just refuse to eat it, hide it. Hopefully they won't notice. I do the same for meatloaf. I grate carrots, onion, and zucchini into a pound of meat and it makes it much more than just a loaf of meat. It's prettier and there's more of it, and it also keeps the meat moist.
A winner for our family is to use recipes that have the veggies shredded up in them, ie: zucchini bread or muffins, meat loaf (puree the veggies in with your favorite sauce you add). Any time you make stove top recipes, chilli, use the blender and puree those veggies. They never know just how nutritional it is!! We also eat a whole food (fruits & veggie) supplement every day. Whole food nutrition is our nutritoinal support system. It has also helped curve my kids tastes. They actually are more open to eating a broadened variety of fresh fruits and veggies because of this! Check out the website I have enclosed to learn more!
Hope this helps!


text: A number of changes to both the Sporting and Technical Regulations have been made by the FIA for the 2007 Formula One season.EnginesEngines homologated and used during the last two races of 2006 must now be used during the 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 seasons. Although this move, designed to cut development costs, has been widely described as an 'engine freeze', some limited development work will be allowed. This will, however, be strictly controlled by the FIA. Engines are rev-limited to 19,000rpm.The two-race engine rule will no longer apply to Friday practice sessions. This means any driver starting a meeting with a fresh engine will not be penalised for an early failure. It also means drivers may opt to use alternative engines on Fridays and save their race engines for the remainder of the weekend.Weekend scheduleIn a slight change to the Grand Prix weekend format, Friday's two practice sessions have been extended from 60 to 90 minutes each.TyresWith Bridgestone becoming Formula One racing's sole supplier for 2007, each team will receive only two specifications of tyre per event. However, they will get more sets - four per driver on the Friday and ten for the remainder of the weekend. Each driver must use both specifications during the race and a white groove on the tread of the softer compound will allow spectators to easily distinguish which tyre a driver is using at any time.Safety carIn 2007, safety car regulations have been modified to prevent drivers diving for the pits the minute the safety car comes onto the circuit, and to stop backmarkers interfering with the leaders during a race restart. No car is allowed to enter the pits until the field is bunched up behind the safety car and before the safety car returns to the pit any lapped car running between cars on the lead lap must overtake those cars and the safety car before taking up their correct position at the back.Friday PracticeThird cars will no longer be allowed, but all teams are now permitted to run one alternative test driver in each Friday session. The alternative driver must be nominated beforehand and may use either of the team's race cars.SafetyA GPS marshalling system, involving a cockpit light display of flag signals in each driver's car, is being introduced. This will allow Race Control to alert drivers to potential hazards more effectively.All cars must also now be fitted with a medical warning light just ahead of the driver's cockpit. This is to provide rescue crews with an immediate indication of the severity of the accident and is connected to the FIA data logger.The crash tests that Formula One cars must pass have been made more stringent. The velocity used in the frontal impact test has been increased from 14m/s to 15m/s, while the minimum size for the impact-absorbing structure has also been raised. In addition, the drivers cockpit must now be clad in special anti-penetration panels made of Zylon. An additional five kilograms has been added to the cars minimum weight requirement to offset the weight of the panels.

Collection, preparation, and distribution of news and related commentary and feature materials through media such as pamphlets, newsletters, newspapers, magazines, radio, film, television, and books. The term was originally applied to the reportage of current events in printed form, specifically newspapers, but in the late 20th century it came to include electronic media as well. It is sometimes used to refer to writing characterized by a direct presentation of facts or description of events without an attempt at interpretation. Colleges and universities confer degrees in journalism and sponsor research in related fields such as media studies and journalism ethics.
Systematic use of violence to create a general climate of fear in a population and thereby to bring about a particular political objective. It has been used throughout history by political organizations of both the left and the right, by nationalist and ethnic groups, and by revolutionaries. Although usually thought of as a means of destabilizing or overthrowing existing political institutions, terror also has been employed by governments against their own people to suppress dissent; examples include the reigns of certain Roman emperors, the French Revolution (see Reign of Terror), Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union under Stalin, and Argentina during the dirty war of the 1970s. Terrorism's impact has been magnified by the deadliness and technological sophistication of modern-day weapons and the capability of the media to disseminate news of such attacks instantaneously throughout the world. The deadliest terrorist attack ever occurred in the United States on Sept. 11, 2001 (see September 11 attacks), when members of al-Qaeda terrorist network hijacked four commercial airplanes and crashed two of them into the twin towers of the World Trade Center complex in New York City and one into the Pentagon building near Washington, D.C.; the fourth plane crashed near Pittsburgh, Pa. The crashes resulted in the collapse of much of the World Trade Center complex, the destruction of part of the southwest side of the Pentagon, and the deaths of some 3,000 people.
