Can anyone tell me how to change the color of the footer text, the text down below, that is located at http://www.terrywestbuilders.com?

You have various styles in style.css setting the color to white (#fff):
line 722
#footer {
color: #FFF;
line 730
#footer-wrapper {
color: #FFF;
line 1050
.colophon-widget {
color: #FFF;
text-align: center;
font-size: 15px;
Still cannot get it to change, but thanks for your reply.
If you want further help, describe what you are trying to do etc. There has been some change, but you haven't changed the color at line 1050 yet.
That line does not seem to change it. Is it possible to just put a white or grey shaded box in the background of the text I have identified in the picture and change all the font to black?
Could you perhaps change it anyway? You still have this:
.colophon-widget {color: #FFF;text-align: center;font-size: 15px;}
.colophon-widget {
background: none;
min-height: 0;
color: #ffffff;
border: none;
text-align: center;
font-size: 15px;
Change color for example to: color: #000;
Save style.css file, delete your browser history and refresh the webpage. Your text color should have changed to black (you can change to whatever color you want).
Create a child theme for your main theme:(not strictly necessary but will save time in long run)
E.g. see
Copy footer.php from main theme directory to child theme directory.
Go to Appearance \ Editor \ footer.php and text should look like
"<?php/** * The template for displaying the footer. * * Contains footer content and the closing of the * #main and #page div elements. * * @package WordPress * @subpackage Twenty_Twelve * @since Twenty Twelve 1.0 */?>

 <?php do_action( 'twentytwelve_credits' ); ?> <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="<?php echo esc_url( __( 'http://wordpress.org/', 'twentytwelve' ) ); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Semantic Personal Publishing Platform', 'twentytwelve' ); ?>"><?php printf( __( ' %s', 'twentytwelve' ), 'WordPress' ); ?>

<?php wp_footer(); ?>
Let me know if more detail required.
Apologies for the poor formating:
<a style="color: #0000ff;" href="<?php echo esc_url( __( 'http://wordpress.org/', 'twentytwelve' ) ); ?>" title="

Should I be Worried?
I am 2 months pregnant now. Unknowingly I have eaten half-boiled egg for two days <1 half-boiled egg per day>. My cousin advised me not to have raw/half-boiled eggs during pregnancy as it contains salmonella bacteria. I am worried now. Could you please provide me a remedy for this.Will it affect the fetus. My 1st issue of pregnancy was aborted @2 months as there was bleeding and in the US scan there was no baby development. This time i am really concerned about this.
Also I have allergy as i sneeze alot about 10 a time @early mornings and some times through out the day and i am not under any medicines now. Then there will be a lot of mucous formation in throat as i remove it by spitting.
Please advise me the precautions to be taken for not having bleeding during pregnancy and for proper baby development.
Thanks in Advance.

Dear Sweety,
Congratulations on your pregnancy.
I am very sorry to hear that your first pregnancy resulted in a miscarriage - you have my deepest sympathies.
The recommendation is for pregnant women to fully cook eggs so that both the white and yoke are hard in the case of boiled eggs (i.e.. you would boil a medium sized egg for around 7 minutes minimum). However, please do not despair. The risk with undercooked eggs is from salmonella but this is really a risk to the pregnant woman rather than the baby. Any salmonella poisoning would be unlikely to affect your baby. However, it could make you feel quite ill with diarrhoea and vomiting as well as a fever and a headache.
I know from personal experience that after you have experienced a miscarriage it is difficult not to worry in the next pregnancy. However, most women who have a miscarriage go on to have a healthy pregnancy the next time around. Most miscarriages would unfortunately have always happened and there was nothing you could or could not have done to change this.
Sneezing cannot do your baby any harm even if it is quite frequent like you describe.
Please feel free to post back with any further questions you have.
Wishing you a happy, healthy pregnancy.
Warm wishes,

The worst tornado in four decades cut a mile-wide path of destruction through the heart of Tuscaloosa. Late Wednesday afternoon, residents emerged from shelter to find decimated buildings, restaurants, and homes. At least 36 people died and hundreds were injured. The University of Alabama was largely spared.

Valley attorney and well-known venture capitalist, Morris Callaman, Esq., has launched a new type of non-traditional law firm – he describes his work as triage attorney.
As a concierge attorney, Callaman offers personalized problem solving to his clients in almost every area of practice. Rather than specialize in one specific subject matter, like family, corporate or contract law, Callaman assumes the role of general counsel to his clients and advises them on the best resolution to their situation. After understanding the issue and helping the client fully understand the situation, Callaman calls on his network of experts to solve the problem.
The idea was developed after years of using his corporate experience as the youngest Principal at accounting firm Ernst & Young, as well as his degrees in business, engineering, and law to operate a private micro venture capital firm. Callaman realized the unique needs of his clients spanned much greater than securing financing and start-up advising.
"My clients first need an ethical problem-solver, and they trust me, and that's what I do. Many times, my clients need someone they can trust with highly confidential or personal issues – whether it's a high-profile divorce or the bankruptcy of a highly visible company. My clients don't have the time to be searching for the best litigator for their problem or best tax counsel for their project, so they call me and I make a plan, assemble the best team to get the job done, and guide my clients through the process."
His model of practice is similar to that of the triage team in a hospital emergency room. However, instead of passing the client off to the most qualified expert, he oversees the entire case from start to finish, creating highly personalized solutions.
Callaman believes that the traditional law firm model has become destructive to the profession and often to business in general.
"As a society, we don't admire lawyers as we used to," said Callaman. "Still, lawyers tend to get into law because they have a sense of ethics and concern for others. Too often, the traditional processes make it feel as if lawyers have somehow lost their way. I'm interested in changing that with this new model of law practice."
Callaman has been hired to resolve issues with regulators, navigate corporate turnarounds, guide celebrity divorces, litigate contract cases, and negotiate financings.

text: CyberSaints win first place at competition Posted on Monday, December 10, 2012 Members of the CyberSaints with their adviser Professor Kevin Barton. Back to Newsletter >> The CyberSaints, OLLU's cybersecurity team, won first place at the third annual Panoply Network Security Competition in October. Panoply, hosted by the University of Texas at San Antonio's Center for Infrastructure Assurance and Security (CIAS), simulates a typical day for a cybersecurity professional. It is a network assessment and network defense competition combined into a single event where teams compete against each other to control virtual computer systems, and defend captured resources against attacks from other teams. OLLU's varsity team won over 11 teams from various universities in the region, including OLLU's junior varsity team. The teams are led by Computer Information Systems and Security (CISS) student and team captain, Artair Burnett, and Kevin Barton, assistant professor in the CISS Department. The competition is held during National Cyber Security Awareness Month, and aims to establish highly qualified students who are interested in pursuing careers in cyber security. It also provides the opportunity for colleges and universities in the area to evaluate and adjust their cyber-security curriculums to meet industry demands. Burnett said the competition is "designed to allow students to have fun while applying a skill that is usually frowned upon by the general public—hacking." To prepare for the event, the teams practiced in excess of 50 hours in the CISS lab on campus, while also practicing individually at home. The intense practicing paid off during the competition, but it also gives students the knowledge and skills they can translate into real jobs in a society where cybersecurity is an increasing concern. "Panoply is one of few competitions where students can draw many skills relating to a real-world career," said Burnett. Tweet

"to haul or run up on a beach," 1840, from beach (n.). Related: Beached; beaching.
1530s, "loose, water-worn pebbles of the seashore," probably from Old English bæce, bece "stream," from Proto-Germanic *bakiz. Extended to loose, pebbly shores (1590s), and in dialect around Sussex and Kent beach still has the meaning "pebbles worn by the waves." French grève shows the same evolution. Beach ball first recorded 1940; beach bum first recorded 1950.
"to haul or run up on a beach," 1840, from beach (n.). Related: Beached; beaching.
The area of accumulated sand, stone, or gravel deposited along a shore by the action of waves and tides. Beaches usually slope gently toward the body of water they border and have a concave shape. They extend landward from the low water line to the point where there is a distinct change in material (as in a line of vegetation) or in land features (as in a cliff).

Wanted to conceive a child
Hi there! I'm Julienne and I have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. One of my friends was informed by her gynecologist that she no longer can conceive because of PCOS (which I also have). I'm afraid my partner will leave me because I won't be able to conceive. Any treatment for this? Please, I need help! I only experience menstruation once a year. Than you so much!

Hi Julienne,
Great question....I want to guide you to this particular link. You will find a great response to one other mum here in the forums who had a similar question about irregular menstruation.
Please scan through it and let us know if you have any further questions.
Have you seen a Dr for your irregular periods? I'm curious to what sort of treatment you have considered for your irregular cycle.
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
30th June 2014 06:33 AM #3
Dear Julienne,
I'm so sorry to read about your concerns. Whilst PCOS does affect your fertility levels please take heart that most women with PCOS who have treatment, or have their condition carefully managed, are able to successfully conceive. Have you talked to your partner about having PCOS? How is your doctor helping to support you with this and manage your condition?
The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Association of Australia can help to support you further with this; please have a look at their website here.
Women who have PCOS have cysts in their ovaries and too much of the hormone androgen. This means they have problems ovulating or may not ovulate at all. Women have a higher chance of ovulation (with PCOS) if they are able to control your weight and also if you have just come off the pill (i.e. conceiving in the first cycle after coming off the pill). You will need help from your doctor or ideally a referral to a fertility specialist for help with what treatment option is best for you.
Many, many women with PCOS go on to successfully conceive.
Thinking of you,

fat4l one:
1. look at some typeography books (or lookat SIMPLE types)
2. take a ruler make some lines (evenly! very importante)
3. draw your word USING the lines as a GUIDE, and the type as an ExAMPLE
4. do this until your hand bleeds or goes numb
5. eventually you wont need the guidelines nor look at the type
6. once you get the flow you have permission to do SOME add ons or variations
7. <-- most important number * then you can do stickers and add color
I'm not being mean just stating what you should or could do to improve

Daytrana is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant prescription medicine. Daytrana is a skin patch that releases the medication contained in the adhesive (glue) through clean and intact skin areas into the bloodstream when applied to the skin on the hips. It is used for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Daytrana may help increase attention and
decrease impulsiveness and hyperactivity in patients with ADHD.
Daytrana should be used as a part of a total treatment program for ADHD that may include counseling or other therapies.
- Medical studies have shown that Daytrana can provide significant improvement of inattention and hyperactive/impulsive symptoms of ADHD.
- Classroom studies of children with ADHD showed that children taking Daytrana not only tried more math problems, but also completed more math problems correctly than those taking placebo.
- In clinical studies, side effects were generally mild to moderate.
- Slower growth (weight gain and/or height) has been reported in children taking methylphenidate over long periods of time. Your doctor will monitor your child's growth/weight gain while taking Daytrana, and may re-revaluate his or her treatment if necessary.
- Daytrana is applied to the hip area each morning. When worn as directed, the patch provides medicine continuously throughout your child's waking day as long as he or she has it on.
- Its recommended that the patch be worn for 9 hours; its effects continue for 3 hours after its removed. The Daytrana patch may be taken off sooner to help manage the potential for late-day side effects.
- Daytrana is clear, flexible and discreet. Daytrana may be a good fit for children who don't like taking pills every morning.
- Daytrana is designed to provide daylong adhesion during activities such as swimming, exercising and bathing.
- Clinical studies showed that most children were not bothered wearing the patch. Accompanying the benefits of this medication are the associated risks such as side effects and skin irritation; therefore, it is important that you read the Important Safety Information before beginning treatment.
What is the most important information I should know about Daytrana?
Daytrana is a stimulant medicine. The following have been reported with use of Daytrana (methylphenidate transdermal system) or other stimulant medicines:
1. Heart-related problems:
- sudden death in patients who have heart problems or heart defects
- stroke and heart attack in adults
- increased blood pressure and heart rate
Tell your doctor if you or your child has any heart problems, heart defects, high blood pressure, or a family history of these problems. Your doctor should check you or your child carefully for heart problems before starting Daytrana.
Your doctor should check your or your childs blood pressure and heart rate regularly during treatment with Daytrana.
Remove patch immediately and call your doctor right away if you or your child has any signs of heart problems such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or fainting while using Daytrana.
2. Mental (Psychiatric) problems:
All Patients:
- new or worse behavior and thought problems
- new or worse bipolar illness
- new or worse aggressive behavior or hostility
Children and Teenagers
- new psychotic symptoms (such as hearing voices, believing things that are not true, are suspicious) or new manic symptoms
Tell your doctor about any mental problems you or your child has, or about a family history of suicide, bipolar illness, or depression. Call your doctor right away if you or your child has any new or worsening mental symptoms or problems while using Daytrana, especially seeing or hearing things that t are not real, believing things that are not real, or are suspicious.
What are possible side effects of Daytrana?
Skin reactions including skin irritation and allergic skin rash can happen with Daytrana. Skin redness or itching at the application site is common.
You can keep using Daytrana if this happens. Stop using Daytrana and see your doctor right away if swelling, bumps, or blisters happen at or around the application site. You may have a skin allergy to Daytrana.
People that have skin allergies with Daytrana may develop an allergy to all medicines that contain methylphenidate, even those taken by mouth.
See What is the most important information I should know about Daytrana for information on reported heart and mental problems.
Other serious side effects include:
- slowing of growth (height and weight) in children
- seizures, mainly in patients with a history of seizures
- eyesight changes or blurred vision
Common side effects include:
- nausea
- trouble sleeping
- decreased appetite
- tics
- vomiting
- mood swings
- decreased weight
Talk to your doctor if you or your child has side effects that are bothersome or do not go away.
This is not a complete list of possible side effects. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
How should I store Daytrana?
Store Daytrana in a safe place at room temperature, 59 to 86° F (15 to 30° C). Keep Daytrana patches in their unopened pouches until ready to use.
Once a tray of patches has been opened, use or discard the patches within 2 months. Keep Daytrana and all medicines out of the reach of children.
General information about Daytrana
Medicines are sometimes prescribed for purposes other than those listed in a Medication Guide. Do not use Daytrana for a condition for which it was not prescribed. Do not give Daytrana to other people, even if they have the same condition. It may harm them and it is against the law.
This Medication Guide summarizes the most important information about Daytrana. If you would like more information, talk with your doctor. You can ask your doctor or pharmacist for information about Daytrana that was written for healthcare professionals.


text: I was born in Victoria in 1949. My mother, crippled with polio, was only 14 when she was raped by a white man. Classed as neglected children we were taken by the Authorities. My mother was exiled hundreds of miles to the north, while I was placed at Bomaderry Mission,100 miles south of Sydney.I loved learning to become a domestic servant. This Early Childhood Training formed The Bedrock of MY Life, Instilling Honesty, Self Discipline, Self Respect, Self Reliance and Love of Goodness in ME from The Beginning. These were The Virtues I learned to live by. There was No dishonesty, No shirking of responsibilities, No foul language, No Lies and No Double Standards. I could not have had a better start. I Fell From Grace with myself after my adoption, descending from this World of Virtue into a Dark World of Chaos. My adoptive parents were Children Of A Lesser God or Inchoate, ie: 'Not completely formed or developed yet - only Elementary or Immature'. These Crude adults stripped me of everything I needed to develop normally.I'm grateful my Early Childhood Training saved me from committing suicide or sinking into the gutter in despair. When I left home, my 'mother' told me I was the hardest @#@# she'd ever known, confirming my feelings that she had knowingly tried to destroy me, because I was a constant reminder of her Perverse Character. Perverse means: 'Persistent or Obstinate in What Is Wrong; Turned Away from What is Right, Good or Proper; Wicked'. Honesty was The Virtue that Empowered me to withstand the enormous pressures created by the Colonial Attitudes of my Immoral 'Role-Models' and 'Care-Givers', who Besmirched The Values instilled in me from Babyhood. I vowed never to be like them but couldn't escape their influence.Throughout my adult life, I've struggled to understand how my head works after abruptly being cut off from my Natural Self as a left-handed aboriginal named Sally Harrison and forced to assume a False Identity that demanded I Be Less than what I was. Words cannot express the Chaos created by this Disfigurement of my self-image and enforced use of my right hand. It Split my personality into an Inchoate White 'persona' and an Ignorant 'Sub-Human' Aboriginal Child; a Crude Mockery of what I was, created by the Illusions and Ignorance that surrounded me. It left me emotionally shattered, mentally blinded and totally confused by the contradictions that Pervade White Society.In 1992 I travelled from Queensland to Western Australia where I took up dot painting, learning to come to terms with my life as a person of two cultures, with No Place in either. Experience has taught me that painting mirrors life and you face exactly the same challenges. Mental Discipline, Honesty and Silent Observation are The Key to Creating Order and Simplicity from The Chaos and Complexity of Detail. That is why Art is called a Discipline. It allows you to do your own Myth Busting and Escape from Deluded Social Conditioning into your Right Mind or Sub-Conscious; what The Ancients called 'The Recording Angel'; Your Better Self that Judges You - rewarding or punishing you for your Actions or Inaction.Thus I've learnt that I am independent of what I was conditioned to Believe by my 'betters'. I've come Home to myself by using Art as The Key to unlock the door of this prison called my 'mind'; my False 'Persona' - the Artificial Creation of my Proud Superiors 'Blinded By The Light' of 'knowledge'. Persona is Latin for 'Mask', meaning an Actor portraying a Character in a Play or Drama (Scripted for the Entertainment of The People) which taught me the true meaning of Humility.Christianity Preaches that 'You Can't Make A Silk Purse Out of A Sow's Ear'.

Thank you, dear Gavin.
Hope they are of use and interest Marion.
Hi Gavin,
So good you were able to send the links from SHPBN. Dr Weir had to spend months pleading to try and get the funding for SIRT. Shame it's only for 20 - 30 patients in 2 years when so many more could benefit.
Thank you
Thanks Gavin. Mom had SIRT end of Feb and feeling great.Right now she's sitting under an umbrella looking at the gulf of Mexico. It's been a great week in Florida with lots of family along. I appreciate the slides.
Hi Angela and Catherine,
Yes it is a real shame that funding for only 20 - 30 patients will be given over the next 2 years, but hopefully if SIRT is shown to be an effective treatment for CC for patients over that time then funding will be increased. Made me angry on hearing about the funding or lack of it for it but am trying to stay positive. We know that incidences of CC are rising worldwide so funding for treatments should increase as well, especially for effective treatments.
Glad the slides were of use to you Catherine and that is great to hear that your mum had SIRT and is feeling good! Sitting under the sun in Florida with the family sounds good to me, enjoy!!!
Hugs to you both,

Yes, I recommend this product.
By Melissa Masserant| April 20th, 2015
This product had a different consistency than the body scrub. It is much more creamy and less exfoliating. I was biased at first, but it worked SO well. My feet started off really nasty, dry, peeling and after using this with a pumice stone, my feet felt magical and so moisturized. So amazing. I love this product!
Yes, I recommend this product.
By Latoya matthews| February 21st, 2015
I love this foot scrub. I use it twice a week and I use the foot lotion every night. It's loke magic. Now my partner offers to give me foot rubs without me even asking.
By Mary Anne | April 17th, 2014
I have dry, ugly feet so I decided to try this product and I must say the foot scrub together with the foot lotion really works! My feet are no longer dry and the cracks on my heel disappeared. I am no longer embarrassed to show my feet.
By stephanie| April 09th, 2014

Linda - from Wasaga Beach, Ontario, Canada
There are several ways to do this. Some decorators use a long-bladed spatula, run it under hot water, dry it off, then run the blade over the surface of the iced cake in a single, fluid motion. Another method some people find successful is to allow the icing to crust slightly, then lay a single sheet of parchment paper over the surface – either rub the parchment with the palm of your hand or use a warmed spatula and rub it over the surface When you remove the parchment, the surface is smooth and even.

Topic: my grandfather
My grandfather passed away of this horrible disease on june 15, 2006. HE was surrounded by his family and friends. He had been doing relatively well up until about 2 weeks before he passed away. He had gone to the grocery store by himself, he drove himself and had a wreck on the way home. No one was hurt, but that was really the start of his decline. A few days later he went out to check his garden in the backyard and he fell and was outside for an hour before anyone found him. My grandmother was sick with a virus and was asleep. She didn't even know he was outside. My parents stopped by to check on him and they found him in the backyard. A few days later he fell 3 times in one day trying to get to the bathroom. After that I think he just gave up. He didn't want to live like that and I think he just quit fighting it. The doctors told him he had 2 weeks to live in Feburary 06 but he lived another 4 months. THe first day that he didn't get out of bed all day and get dressed we knew the end was near. The Sunday before he died Me, my husband and daughter were able to talk with him for a while and that was the last time he was truly awake. The next day Monday, hospice brought out oxygen and said he needed to be on that. tuesday they delivered a hospital bed so we could try to make him a little more comfortable-he couldnt lie flat on his back the pain was too great. Wedneday Morning hospice asked that the family be called in so our entire family was with him all day on wednesday and most of the night. He passed away on thursday afternoon at 3:45 very quietly and with dignity just like he wanted. He was breathing one minute and then he wasn't. There was no noise or gasp. Just peace. We had his funeral on saturday and it was the most difficult day of my life. My grandfather touched a lot of lives and he will be missed greatly. I can still hear his voice and we were all joking at his funeral how he would have hated all the flowers. He thought they were a waste of money! He had a great sense of humor. This website has brought a great deal of comfort to my family and I in this difficult time and I wanted to share our experience. Thank you so much. Kelly

The Werra river snakes its way for 300 kilometres from its source on the Rennsteig ridge through Thuringia, northern Hessen and southern Lower Saxony – often alongside the former inner-German border. At Hannoversch Münden, the Werra and Fulda merge to become the Weser river.
Northern Hessen is blessed with picturesque, fairytale-like scenery. Idyllic little towns and villages of timber-framed houses line the valley, while medieval castles tower high from the hilltops, standing watch over the region's legends. It was here that the Brothers Grimm – compilers of the famous collection of German fairytales – gathered their folk stories. One of their best-known characters, Mother Hulda, is said to have lived on Hoher Meissner hill.
Today, the region tells a modern tale of carbon-neutral energy and fresh countryside air. Opportunities for hiking, cycling, canoeing or horse riding open up a world of discoveries in Werra-Meissen.
Green discovery tour
In Meissner-Kaufungen Forest Nature Park, the carefully routed walking trails ensure minimal environmental impact. The various quality-certified routes can be combined in such a way that you can enjoy a richly varied walking holiday without having to change accommodation or transfer luggage. For expertise and insights, you can also book a nature park guide to accompany you.
Canoeing from Wanfried down to Hannoversch Münden is an option even for novices. The slow current means beginners can familiarise themselves with the boat and the river at their own pace. From the water, you get a truly unique perspective of the region.
Cycling is a particularly fine way to explore the area here. On the Werra Valley Cycle Route from the Rennsteig to the Weser, you can cover a good 300 kilometres in just under a week – with overnight accommodation and transfers organised, of course.
All tours provide ample time to enjoy a taste of regional cuisine. Local producers and restaurants entice adventurers with delicious specialities like Ahle Worscht sausage, Meissen lamb and Ringgau cheese. For the full flavour, you can combine your rest stop with behind-the-scenes tours and tastings.
Contemporary history brought to life
It was here – in the geographical centre of Europe – that the border between East and West split the landscape in two. Amid the seclusion afforded by the former 'death strip', a refuge for endangered flora and fauna emerged. Today, the Green Belt reunites this culturally important region. Carefully preserved sites of remembrance, such as the underground Stasi tunnel in Wendehausen and the Heldrastein Tower of Unity, document this period of history. Schifflersgrund Border Museum provides extensive insights with its array of exhibits.

LOS ANGELES - Nineteen years after the 1994 Northridge earthquake, the Los Angeles Police Department today will honor a man who helped rescue a police officer trapped in his apartment after the temblor.
Michael Kubeisy, 53, will be honored at the Police Commission meeting for his bravery in the immediate aftermath of the quake, which struck at 4:31 a.m. Jan. 17, 1994, killing nearly 60 people, injuring thousands and causing around $20 billion in damage.
Kubeisy, now a still photographer for the CBS television show "NCIS," rushed to help neighbors in his approximately 150-unit, three-story Northridge apartment building, the first floor of which partially collapsed.
After bridging a nearly three-foot crevice that opened up in his own apartment, Kubeisy first assisted an elderly neighbor down a chain ladder, then moved to the door of LAPD officer Joseph Jordan and his wife, he said. The door was sealed shut, but Kubeisy could hear Jordan and his wife were OK.
He eventually pried the door open, and he blew out a candle the couple was burning -- a major hazard given a gas leak caused by the quake. Kubeisy and Jordan would go on to help other neighbors.
"And that was the last time I saw him" until they met up during an interview years later, Kubeisy said.
Jordan died of a heart attack in 1996, according to the LAPD. He was honored in the days after the quake by then-President Bill Clinton, but "the LAPD has never properly thanked Mike for rescuing Officer Jordan," according to the department.
Kubeisy shrugged off the honor.
"The only reason I'm agreeing to go through with this -- it's not for me -- I want my teenage boys to see firsthand that when you deny yourself for the betterment of someone else, even 19 years later, you get the 'Atta boy' sometimes," he said.

You may find that studying in college is very different from studying in high school. Don't be surprised if the study habits that helped you to be successful in high school aren't working as well for your in college—many students find themselves in this predicament. It usually takes awhile to get the hang of preparing for exams and writing papers successfully in college.
Your professors can be helpful in showing you what is required for their classes. Make good use of their office hours by making frequent visits to ask them for assistance. Once a professor has helped you to prepare for his or her class, go back and show him or her what you have done to make sure that you are on the right track. Most professors will remember the time and effort that you put in when it is time to assign a grade. Other helpful resources on campus include the advising office and the Counseling Center. Both offices offer learning assistance programs to help students with study skills and test taking. Please find some helpful hints to guide you in your studying listed below.
If you would like to discuss study skills, test-taking, text anxiety, or any other issues, please call or stop by the Counseling Center for an appointment.

Senior elves serve as liaison to Santa for Stow children
STOW: The United States Postal Service is celebrating its 100th year of making children's holiday wishes come true through the Letters to Santa program.
The popular holiday program is known nationwide, and once again, city employees, members of the public, charitable organizations and corporations are aiding the USPS to respond to letters from children to Santa by participating in the Letters to Santa program.
This marks the third year that the city of Stow has made the Letters to Santa program part of its holiday tradition.
The city's park and recreation department has sought the help of very special "senior elves" from their local senior center to serve as Santa's special messengers.
"I wanted something that was intergenerational, something that would be a community program where kids would always remember going to city hall and dropping their letter off," said Kathy McConnell of the parks and recreation department.
McConnell said that there has been a consistent group of six senior elves who have participated in the program since it began.
"This is something that they really enjoy and that they look forward to," McConnell said.
The senior elves take great pride in their position and have bragged about it to their friends, McConnell said.
This year, the senior elves reviewed and relayed more than 200 messages from the children of Stow to Santa at the North Pole.
Many of the letters the senior elves reviewed consisted of lists of toys.
However, there were a few letters that really stood out to the elves.
When one of the senior elves came across a unique letter, the whole group would stop and listen, McConnell said.
They received a special wish from a boy named Palmer who said that this year there was something he wanted more than anything.
Palmer wants Santa to bring him a little brother named Toby.
Apparently, Palmer has a friend named Sierra and she has a little brother.
Palmer specifically requested that Toby be the same age as Sierra's brother, and he also wants him to look and act just like him.
"I have never done this much for anything," Palmer said in his letter.
The boy has gone to great lengths in hopes that his Christmas wish will come true. Palmer has cleaned out a part of his room and prepared it so he can share it with his new brother Toby.
"I am going to buy diapers and baby wipes, so please get him or it will be a waste of good money and my allowance money," Palmer said in his letter.
Palmer included a post script in his letter that read, "Please put Toby in a box with holes and include clothes."
That was not the only memorable request to Santa.
Ethan and Seth asked Santa if they could help him deliver toys this year, but there is a catch: they have to be home by midnight.
Tommy wrote in his letter that he would like Santa to thank the elves for all the hard work they do.
Allison asked if "rood off" is fun in her letter.
Lyla said she would just like "a bouncy puppy."
There were even letters from children who were celebrating their first Christmas.
Edward, five months old, wrote with the help of his mother that he was born on July 2 and that his mother, uncle and grandparents are all from Stow.
"I have lots of love and all that a little boy could need," Edward said in his letter. "I love all the pretty Christmas lights and the music, too. Maybe you could jingle your sleigh bells for me. My mommy will have cookies for you and apples for the reindeer."
A girl named Kristen confessed that her friends told her that Santa wasn't real in her letter.
However, Kristen said, "I know you live here, some where."
Mayor Sara Drew said she was very happy the city and the senior elves could help to sustain children's belief in Christmas and Santa.
"There is so much time in all our lives that we have to deal in what are often difficult realities, so helping a child believe in the magical, fun and exciting parts of Christmas is really a treasure. I hope everyone in our community is able to find a part of Christmas that brings some of that magic into their lives," Drew said.

FOS11 Statement Regarding Nomination of John D. Negroponte as Director of National Intelligence
Families of September 11 (FOS11) is looking forward to working with the Director of National Intelligence to ensure our intelligence agencies have all the resources and stature needed to adequately fight the war on terror. President Bush has nominated Ambassador Negroponte, a man with considerable diplomatic experience. We are pleased to see a nomination, and see it as a positive step toward fulfilling the mandate of the Intelligence Reform Act of 2004 signed into law two months ago today.
The 9/11 Commission states that the Director of National Intelligence's role is as "principal intelligence advisor to the President." He must also "manage the national intelligence program [including intelligence budgets]." We applaud President Bush's pledge to give the Director of National Intelligence daily access and encourage the President to give him full budgetary authority over all 15 intelligence agencies.
As family members whose loved ones lost their lives on September 11th, we feel compelled to monitor and work hand in hand with the new Director of National Intelligence to guarantee that our intelligence community is well equipped to do their important job. Without a strong Director of National Intelligence who can effectively oversee our national intelligence apparatus, the safety of all Americans is at risk. We look forward to Ambassador Negroponte's confirmation hearings to learn more about his plans as the first Director of National Intelligence.
At this juncture, we remain hopeful that Congress will take the opportunity to reform its oversight structure in order to coordinate with the new Director of National Intelligence to better protect the security of the American people.
Families of September 11, Inc. (FOS11) is an independent nonpartisan organization founded by families of those who died in the September 11 terrorist attacks. FOS11 does not receive financial or other support from any political parties, campaign organizations or the like. We offer no endorsements of political candidates in any election. For more information about our organization, please visit www.familiesofseptember11.org.

I recently installed Backtrack 5 to my hard drive alongside Xubuntu 11.04. Towards the end of the installation, the progress bar hung at 99% for awhile, as I expected, then a I/O Error (Error 5) popped up. I rebooted my computer, and it booted straight into Xubuntu, without first going to a grub menu. I did a md5 check, and found out that my Backtrack ISO was (apparently) corrupt.
Unfortunately, the incomplete installation left me with 67 gb partitioned on my drive for Backtrack at /dev/sda7. All the Backtrack files seem to be in root, and after fixing grub, I can start to boot into Backtrack. But then I recieve the message, "ALERT! /dev/disk/by uuid/1c8323a7-c6e3-4e8a-b409-96a09257d185 does not exist! Dropping to a shell!" and the installation drops to Busybox.
I assume it's a long shot, especcially since the ISO seems to be corrupt, but is there any way I can fix Backtrack? I'd like to try a full reinstallation, but I can't install over the current bad installation of Backtrack, and I don't want to further partition my drive.
I appreciate any help anyone can give me. Thank you!

The 2009-2010 Levy County 4-H Sewing campers completed a community service project as part of the camps. They made necktie coolers for our soldiers. When soaked in cold water these necktie coolers expand and assist with keeping our soldiers cool.
And as it happens, one of the fiscal assistants at the University of Florida IFAS Family Nutrition Program is married to a soldier. He happened to be home on leave as the summer was ending and has agreed to accept the coolers and take them back to the soldiers.

Verizon gift to help fund Cocky's Reading Express
Verizon Communications has increased its support of Cocky's Reading Express with a gift of $24,500, the largest gift to date to support the University of South Carolina's student-led literacy program.
Accepting the award Oct. 23 at the College of Mass Communications and Information Studies' Homecoming celebration were university president Dr. Harris Pastides; Ellen Shuler Hinrichs, executive director of the S.C. Center for Children's Books and Literacy; and Dr. Samantha Hastings, director of the School of Library and Information Science.
"We at Verizon support Cocky's Reading Express because we appreciate unique educational initiatives like this," said Stan Bugner, Verizon vice president for public affairs, policy and communications in South Carolina. "And we think that the excitement that Cocky and the University of South Carolina students bring to young readers is a great way to foster interest in reading."
Bugner said Verizon has "supported literacy programs all over the country for more than 20 years, and this is one of the most unique approaches we have seen."
The gift will support visits by Cocky, the university's mascot, and his student friends along South Carolina's I-95 Corridor, as well as in the Midlands, Upstate and Lowcountry.
Cocky's Reading Express was founded by student-government leaders at the University of South Carolina in 2005. Part of the literacy initiative in the School of Library and Information Science, the program has successfully taken the message of early literacy and delivered books to more than 11,000 elementary-school children in South Carolina.
For more information on Cocky's Reading Express, contact Ellen Shuler Hinrichs at 803-734-8207 or firstname.lastname@example.com, or visit the Web site, www.libsci.sc.edu/, and click on "Cocky's Reading Express."

So all you younger writers (12-14) How do you go out at 2am to bomb the city? What do you tell your parents?
So all you younger writers (12-14) How do you go out at 2am to bomb the city? What do you tell your parents?
Sneak out of the window, or get arrested 5 or 6 times. They'll give up hope and stop questioning your motives. You'll then be free to do whatever you please. You have 2-4 years before they can kick you outta the house.
My parents just let it happen, because they're trying to be mad hip with the times.
Fuck You
Being a young writer what are some of the best things to do wile bombin
How do younger writers get the money for all there cans?
Or does every kid rack em these days?
During the day just put out some sticker slaps
only during summer
i do it around 9pm and allways do it with a friend so we say were going to a movie
There is a train yard in between my house and my friends house, so in the day we both tell our parents that we're walking to each other's house, grab our paint and go bomb the trains. I normally only bomb at night on the weekends, for that i just sneak out my window, and jump off my roof, but i keep my paint and shit in my garage so it doesn't sound like a grenade goes off when i hit the ground.
My mom and dad come out painting with me.

Box Score (PDF)
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - You want drama? We got drama.
The University of Pennsylvania women's lacrosse team, playing for the outright Ivy League title, provided plenty of it Saturday afternoon at Brown. The Quakers led exactly once in regulation, after Maddie Poplawski scored an unassisted goal just 33 seconds into the game to make the score 1-0.
That lead lasted all of 12 seconds.
Penn's second lead would not come until after regulation had been completed. This time, the Quakers never looked back, scoring two more times in the six-minute extra period to gain a 10-7 victory over the Bears.
With the win, Penn is now 9-4 overall -- four of those wins coming in overtime -- and finishes the Ivy League campaign at 7-0 for the fifth time in seven years and the first time since 2010. For the seventh year in a row, Penn is the Ivy League champion; for the sixth time in that run, the Red and Blue own the crownoutright.
Brown fell to 9-5, 2-4 in Ivy League play.
Tara Rooke's goal is the one that matched Poplawski's opening salvo, and that was followed by three more Brown tallies that pushed the Bears in front, 4-1. Bre Hudgins pushed the hosts in front, and then Abby Bunting made it 4-1 wth a pair of goals, the first unassisted and the second off a Hudgins feed.
Penn finally got back on the board with 2:19 left before halftime, Meredith Cain scoring on a free-position shot, and it was 4-2 at the break.
Hudgins made it a three-goal game four minutes into the second half, unassisted, but Tory Bensen matched that with her first goal of the day for Penn. Bunting finished a Grace Healy feed to make it 6-3, but Bensen again scored. Nearly eight minutes went by before Penn finally scored again, Shannon Mangini converting a free-position shot to make the score 6-5.
Bensen tied the game up with 8:58 left in regulation on her third unassisted goal of the day. However, less than two minutes later, Healy scored off a Kasey Wagner feed to push Brown back in front, 7-6.
Penn pushed the play -- the Quakers outshot Brown, 15-4, in the second half -- and finally drew level again with just 30 seconds left when Mangini scored again.
In the overtime, Penn never gave Brown a chance. The Quakers got Cain's goal just 24 seconds in to take an 8-7 lead; added an unassisted tally from Mangini with 27 seconds left in the first session; then punctuated the win with a Poplawski goal that neatly bookended this day in the final minute of the second session.
Penn will host the Ivy League Tournament in two weeks; before that, the Quakers head to Northwestern nextSaturday to take on the No.4 Wildcats

On an eerily quiet night at Burt's Tiki Lounge, a delightfully odd mix of posters and artwork are the only audience for two hastily booked West Coast bands.
Seattle band MTNS and the Oakland duo Laughters each perform a set while President John F. Kennedy, Dolly Parton, Pope John Paul II, Jimi Hendrix and Jesus holding a pitcher of beer look on. The 1982 sci-fi horror flick "Swamp Thing" plays muted on two TV screens.
In the hot-and-cold world of dive-bar concert venues, this is a particularly chilly evening.
But the show goes on, just as it has at Burt's for almost 21 years.
From the looks of it, Burt's is being held together by two decades' worth of bumper stickers, tacks, nails, bottle caps and anything else you can slap on a wall. The palm fronds that once accented the interior, however, are long gone.
"It's a dive bar, in the best sense of the word," said six-year Burt's bartender Greg Hogan. "It's not a tiki bar."
It has the look and feel and smell of a fraternity house basement, minus the frat boys.
This bar is somehow instantly endearing, like the flattened face of a pug, so ugly it's curiously cute – though "cute" isn't exactly a word that fits here. Rather, Burt's interior is as visually compelling as scattered debris after a car crash.
"There's so much stuff acquired over many, many years," Hogan says. "I've seen everything in here, but I haven't noticed everything."
On a slow night when the bands are late or don't show up a game of Eye Spy will yield a Pee Wee Herman doll, the statue of a bearded fisherman wearing a yellow rain slicker, Bozo the clown and numerous sarcastic nods to organized religion, including three crosses bearing stuffed bunnies.
"Jesus is 'cut off,' " Hogan said, pointing to a grinning depiction of God's only son behind the bar.
If your belly starts to rumble, Burt's offers two things: pickled eggs from a big jar; and a vending machine near the horrifying bathrooms.
Harder-to-please palates can head down State Street to the Sears parking lot for cheap eats from a taco cart. If the live band in Burt's is bombing, you can march upstairs for a game of pool or go see a man about some skin art at Big Deluxe tattoo shop next door.
"[Burt's] sounds good for metal and punk," said a Big Deluxe apprentice who goes by Yogi. In particular, he said, two Utah bands, Thunderfist and Oldtimer, have done Burt's justice.
"The whole place is interesting," said Yogi, who laughed when recalling a certain walrus under a surfboard near the higher-end booze think Jameson behind the bar.
Don't expect variety at Burt's, which offers a handful of beers (nothing on tap), a few brands of whiskey and one very sweet signature cocktail sans the umbrella called the Cerebral Assassin.
If live music is all that brings you to Burt's, then you've come to the right place. The only question left is what kind of band you'll hear.
"Anything that's gritty, even hip-hop," Hogan said. "We'll throw anything at the wall and see if it sticks."
Speaking of which, MTNS and Laughters stuck around that chilly night for only a few songs each, offering music that could best be described as planned noise.
"Thank you, Salt Lake!" Guy Culver, with Laughters, joked after making strange blips and bleeps come from his Roland Juno-106 keyboard.
Somewhere in the dingy shadows of Burt's that night, a singular clapping sound may have been JFK approving from the great beyond, or maybe he was at least smiling a little wider in his poster.
Burt's Tiki Lounge
This Salt Lake City bar offers live music at a small cover price and cheap drinks next to a tattoo studio.

Myth: If you have lumpy breasts, you are a likely candidate for breast cancer in the future.
Fact: Having lumpy or fibrocystic breasts does not increase your chances of developing breast cancer. Following a breast health program with regular breast exams will increase your chances of detecting cancer. Myth: Only women get breast cancer.
Fact: It is rare, but Men do get breast cancer. If you see a lump in your partner's breast tissue, make sure he sees a doctor. Myth: Regular annual breast exams detect all breast cancer in its early stages.
Fact: While breast cancer can be detected at earlier with regular exams, not all cancers will be detected. Most breast cancers have been present for 8 to 10 years before a lump is discovered. Myth: Even if you do get breast cancer, treatments are safe and effective.
Fact: Chemotherapy and radiation are highly toxic and do not guarantee a cure. Myth: Only women in their fifties get breast cancer.
Fact: While it's true that the majority of this disease, up to 78%, is found in this age group, there is still a significant number of cases found in women under the age of thirty. Myth: Only women with a family history get breast cancer.
Fact: Of the majority of women who get breast cancer, 90% have no family history and 70% have none of the identifiable risk factors. Myth: Abstaining from smoking, drinking alcohol, using caffeine or eating a high fat diet makes your chances of getting breast cancer almost zero.
Fact: While none of these are proven to be beneficial for your health, reducing or stopping your intake can improve your overall health. Myth: Injury to the breast can cause breast cancer.
Fact: Trauma to the breast may result in detection of breast cancer, however this is not due to the injury. Rather it is because the breast is being examined and followed more closely than usual. Myth: The best way to detect lumps is to do a breast self-exam in the shower.
Fact: It may be more difficult to find lumps and irregularities in breast tissue with wet, soapy fingers. The best way is while lying down, about a week after your period every month. You should be intimately aware of your body and breast. Consult your doctor, sites on the internet and magazines for the correct way to do breast self exams. Myth: Small breasted women do not get breast cancer.
Fact: Regardless of breast size, race or socioeconomic status, all woman are susceptible to breast cancer. Photo 1 of 1 Continue Gallery

I have been a Patriot fan since the selection of Bledsoe. Im still a Bledsoe fan.
I've been posting on the internet since about 96/97, and every board Ive been on, has had a ton of Pttriot posters, from all over the nation. The Patriots didn't really become popular, or winners, until we changed into 2000.
But, of course, no matter what sport it is, you're going to see people jumping on the bandwagon. It's just the casual sports fan that doesnt care enough about that particular sport to be die hard, and just goes with the team that is talked about most. I wouldnt consider that type of fan a part of the fan base.

You guys should know about this topic better than anyone so I'm asking this forum
Why are there Pats banwaggons and there were steeler and Dolphin banwaggons in the 70's Bears in the 80's and Cowboys of the 90's
But the Niners on the other hand were probably the most hated team in the 80's and early 90's developing rivalry's with Packers Cowboys raiders bronco's dolphins and every other team.
I'm glad there are not too many bannwagon fans but just curious why they got the hatred when they were on top where so many others stockpiled banwaggons.

Im not sure I see that one. In SoCal, for the past 15 years, EVERYONE is a 9er fan. Not so much anymore, but during the middle school years, it was cool to be a 9er fan.
The 9ers have had their share of bandwagon fans as well.

When you actaully talk to people you can tell wheather they are "true" fans or not.
There will always be idiots that run around posting and saying dumb sh*t. But people just need to ignore it.
Don't talk to them
All that bandwagoners are is a common sports fan. You know "yea i love football, Peyton Manning is the bestest QB EVER!! ehh Ehhh EhhH. NO ONE CAN BEAT THE COLTS EVER!!AAAeeeajHHH. lol
That type of sh*t...you just need to let it go. And of course people that say, liked the pats but haven't really fallowed the team lately are going to start talking trash when there winning in the playoffs and racking up superbowl championship. And when the pats are losing your not going to hear those people running there mouths. It comes and goes. How many Tampa Bay fans do you see talking about how there defense is one of the greatest of all time now???
Pretty close to zero. If the Begnals were winning then you'd say this about Bengal fans.
When it comes to sports bandwagoners come with the territory.
Just don't make it sound like becasue its patriot fans right now that it is some how any different or worse then if it were the Phins that were on top.

Been a Pats fan since I could walk. In the 4th grade I found out that
Stanley Morgan and a few other Pats lived around the corner from my school.
I pressed the buzzer and they let us up for Autographs. They were watching soap operas. Too funny.
I met Bishop (O-line) when he was getting out of his Chrysler New Yorker in the parking lot of the place as well.
I used to work with Tim Fox and got to meet Mike Haynes and a bunch of others when he came to visit the office.
Some of Tim's stories are a riot. Especially the ones from the set of "Everybody's All-American."

VIDEO: Man Jumps off Train, Gets Struck by Locomotive
A bizarre incident involving a Tri-Rail train last night in West Palm Beach.
Fire Rescue says a 32-year old man was rushed to St. Mary's in what's being called "extremely critical condition", after he was struck by a moving train in the downtown area.
The man had reportedly taken a seat on a southbound Tri-Rail train, but as the train began to pull out of the Tamarind Ave. station, the man reportedly realized that he left his cell phone on a bench. He pulled the emergency cord and as the doors opened, he jumped out and was struck by the moving train.
Close to 50 passengers were on board at the time of the accident, which happened at 8 p.m. Monday night. Tri-Rail sent another train to pick them up.

And you thought you were good at Snapchat? One man has proven he is a Snapchat CHAMP!
He used the popular app to create covers of songs ... but drawn up like the artists who sing them! The details are impressive to say the least. He covers everyone from Daft Punk to KISS, Tupac to Aladdin (AND Jasmine), Pharrell to Michael Jackson, and many more.
Prepare to be amazed. Check it out below:

I don't think I could be a mountaineer without traveling the world, and vice versa. For me the freedom to roam in the mountains in any way I want feels natural, like a "given." I don't mean to say that I can do anything I want physically, I'm referring to the opportunity to explore anywhere within reason or without one at all! I am grateful to be an American and to have the privilege of that freedom. If there is a mountain somewhere I want to climb — I can probably at least try it — almost anywhere in the world. So I travel.
One of the lessons I learned traveling was that in other countries, the U.S. stands out, and not just because of our extensive national park system. There were people out there who were so psyched on the U.S. that they would volunteer to die for it — no questions asked. I will always recognize that in our homeland, one of my best friends is one of those people and we grew up near Ft. Campbell, Ky.
My friend Don is a steady badass, and has been since we were 13. He is a helicopter pilot in the Army National Guard and an engineer in Atlanta, Ga. He's a classic alpinist basing out of the hinterlands of mountain hope in the South and clawing up ice climbs in Tennessee, North Carolina and Georgia during the winter. After growing up together in Tennessee, Don and I were "all in" on the mountains for a few solid years and notched many adventures in our 20s in Colorado and one sleepless Mexican volcano trip. Two college dropouts — from architecture school and aeronautical engineering — we marched steady toward our dreams.
Climbing peaks sometimes requires a soldier-like mentality; those who cope with fear are generally successful as long as they have tactical skills and luck. Many times when we were younger we talked about the balance between death and "getting the most out of life." Six months after becoming a Dad, I sent Don an article contemplating some legitimate concerns regarding risks and the types of environments I was negotiating in 2012, Don got it and deadpanned:
"I will always love mountains, even in light of their ability to strike down the sturdiest of souls. I enjoy exercising my body in an environment that is set to the scale of my mind. Living and climbing in Colorado during my early 20s fueled my ability to pursue academic and professional accomplishments that I once thought were unattainable.
Four years ago I took an oath which affirmed that I would put myself in harm's way for the greater good of our Nation. I would not have been able to take that oath had I not previously put myself in harm's way for my own self-validation and pure enjoyment. In my own mind, from now on it might as well mean something."
Don would go to war and die so we could visit the mountains if he had to. I'm not sure how I feel about war or death, but I know how Don feels about our country and I appreciate him even more because of it.
We are here today enjoying what we do because of sacrifices others have made. Ultimately it is up to us all to move ourselves forward remembering that sometimes others gave their lives and that we are the product of the freedom they are protecting. I did the edit on the video below and hope that you will take a moment to learn about Wear Blue: Run to Remember for those who serve our country and protect freedoms as innocent as being able to go outside. Remember those who protect our freedom, they are risking something for us that we should forever be grateful for.

"Why don't you get it, Justin?" "Because you're not making sense! You have your walls up, but so do I. You have a past, and I do too. You know we're perfect for each other!" I scoffed. "You're ridiculous." I turned to face him, anger blazing through me. "I'm a suicide mission. My mind is filled with demons and I've surrendered to them. I can't do this anymore; I'm broken, Justin." My voice began to rise as my anger grew and I met his eyes. "Why can't you understand that you should stay away from me!" He ran his hands through his hair, frustrated. "See, that's the problem. I can't stay away from you. I haven't been able to since the minute I met you!" My breathing hitched as he came closer and closer, walking angrily towards me. He let out a frustrated groan as he pushed me against the side of his car. He brought his mouth up to my neck, breathing heavily. "You have to keep going. You're broken and I still love you. You're still perfect. You're broken, so let me help. Let me fix you."

Ways to brighten a grey wintery day:
– Stay in bed a little longer. Heated blanket ON. (No central heating in Australia, folks – that heated blanket has been MONEY this past month.) Check your emails on your phone while doing this – you're totally getting things done while still lying in bed!
– Make or buy the best dang cup of coffee you can muster. Drink it while watching different versions/parodies of Call Me Maybe on youtube. (Like this one or this one.)
– Do your own version of yoga/stretching/dance aerobics while watching fluffy morning TV. Mute TV occasionally to play Call Me Maybe.
– Bundle up and get outside for a walk. You'll try and resist this at first (it's so gloomy out there!) – but you'll be happy you did.
– Simmer something over the stove for a little while – something a hearty, lentil-packed and a little spicy. Top it with a zippy lemon-scented yogurt and eat while piping hot!
Awww yeah, you're treating winter right.
Lentil Soup with Pumpkin and Harissa (serves 4-6)
adapted from Gourmet Traveller
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– small knob of butter
– 1 large onion, finely chopped
– 1 medium-large leek, finely chopped
– 2 carrots, finely diced
– 1 celery rib, finely diced
– 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
– 2 cups dry French lentils
– 6 cups (1.5 liters) water, or more if needed.
– 2-3 cups diced Japanese pumpkin (or butternut)
– 1 14-ounce/400-gram can of diced or cherry tomatoes
– 2-3 tablespoons harissa paste, to taste
To serve:
– 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
– zest of 1/2 lemon
– handful of chopped coriander
Heat olive oil and butter in a large pot over a medium heat until the butter is foaming.
Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally until soft and golden – about 8 minutes.
Add leek, carrot, celery and garlic and cook for another 8-10 minutes stirring occasionally, until soft.
Add lentils and water and cook for 20 minutes over a simmer.
Add pumpkin and tomatoes and cook another 20-30 minutes until everything is tender. Add a bit more water if needed. (I added a splash.)
Stir in harissa paste and cook another 10 minutes.
Combine lemon zest and yogurt and serve over soup with fresh coriander.
