Techniques For Losing Weight Easier
This article was written to help people that are thinking about going on a diet. We present several tricks and tips that may help with your weight visit homepage loss objectives, even if you have a healthy eating plan already set up. The tips we will provide include ways to ignore the wrong types of food, and suggestions on how to boost your metabolism so you will burn fat with ease.
Drinking alcohol, and trying to lose weight, are two things that do not go together. Empty calories, plus lowered inhibitions, is what you will get from alcoholic beverages. Did you know that alcohol makes you feel hungry? This is one of the major reasons why you should stay away from this beverage. It may also lower your determination to achieve your goals. Losing weight, and staying on your diet, means that you must reduce your alcohol consumption. If you do not, the empty calories will continue and you will not be http://lauriezrthomas.wordpress.com/2013/09/16/co-pays-a-co-pay-is-a-small-sum-of-money-that-you-may-be-charged-for-each-and-every-single-doctors-visit/ as healthy as you should be. To avoid alcohol in your diet, find a way to replace it with some other type of beverage. This could be a nice cup of herbal tea, or something else that you enjoy drinking. A great replacement beverage for straight alcohol is red wine because of its ability to help against the risk of cardiovascular disease that plagues many people.
Since we have been small children, we were told that the rule of thumb is eating three meals daily. As we age, life usually becomes more demanding and we have less time to maintain a healthy diet. You will be able to get rid of fat quicker if you are able to advance the level of your metabolism, and this will happen if you eat more often than simply three meals daily. Your body is like an engine and if you give it fuel regularly, it will run smoothly. The same goes for your body. If you feed it regularly, you keep the engine running, meaning your metabolism is constantly burning calories and doesn't have time to slow down. You will be drawn less to unhealthy snacks during the day when you are able to eat more small meals; which will keep your tummy content. If you allow your stomach to feel even the slightest hint of hunger, you are setting yourself up to graze on some of the foods that are quick and easy; which are usually not part of your healthy diet. You will be amazed at how many pounds you will notice vanishing after you have begun your five meals a day program; hence speeding up your metabolism.
It is common knowledge that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Even our grandparents and parents understood this. By cutting out breakfast in the morning, you can actually cause your diet to fail.
Getting to lunch is only possible with an excellent breakfast that can keep you energized throughout the morning. Unhealthy snacks, energy crashes, and feeling hungry will be things of the past once you start learning how to eat in the morning everyday. So, remember a healthy breakfast every day will boost your metabolism and help you stick to your diet for the long term. These are just some simple tips for simplifying your weight loss experience. Apply them as soon as you can and, before you know it, you'll have achieved your weight loss goals.

The Boat House
The Boat House is a restaurant in Palm Beach that is extremely popular. The décor of the restaurant is amazing, it is beach themed and it is on a jetty overlooking Pittwater. It has lots of plants, flowers and colourful fruit out the front. On weekends there is often a queue to order, and it can take a while for your order to arrive, but it's worth the wait. I usually order a berry smoothie, mango smoothie or a watermelon juice, they are all so delicious and fresh!!! The Boat House also has FABULUS cakes that look so cute and tasty, the brownies they have a moist and have crunchy nuts, definitely a favourite. It can't be that bad if I just live off their food for my whole life, can it? I don't usually order full meals, but when I do they are filling, healthy, appealing and scrumptious. Their combinations of food are often adventurous, but that is what makes the Boat House unique. I think it is one of the best cafes near Sydney.

Wow - you are a dedicated reader for work! I am enjoying reading all the books that have been on my summer reading list. I just finished The Poisonwood Bible and The Help, and am moving onto Eat Pray Love and the new Barbara Kingsolver one... Fun!
Yay for joining in on the Monday meme! I love meeting new bloggers and seeing what they are reading :)
I like the 30 before 30 list too! Have fun!
Glad that you liked my book "New Rules". Thanks for writing about it here.
I actually read new rules of marketing and PR for my thesis. And since then i am hooked to Scott's blog.

Becky Albertalli became one of my favorite autors last year after I've read her book Simon Vs. The Homosapiens Agenda. For me, this book was a life-changer. To be honest, I didn't know when this book, The Upside Of Unrequited would come out, but this Friday I decided to pay a visit to the local bookstore and that's where I saw this beauty and I discovered this book just came out. Of course, my heart was weak and I just had to buy it.

The researchers, led by the Berlin, Germany-based Leibniz Institute of Zoo and Wildlife Research (IZW), highlighted the fact that not only is just a small fraction of the area under protection, but the remaining habitats are extremely fragmented. The main problem is that the majority of large national parks in Southeast Asia, specifically in peninsular Thailand, Malaysia, Borneo and Sumatra, are located at higher elevations, and the flat-headed cat is restricted to lowland and coastal swampy forested areas.
'We gathered all available scattered information on this cat which showed us that it mainly occurs in lowland or peat-swamp forests close to freshwater sources,' explained lead author Dr Andreas Wilting from the IZW.
'With this information we developed a computer model to predict its historical and current distribution. The next step is to gain further information about the ecology of this little-known species and to enforce the protection and thus ensure the sustainability of the key remaining forest habits,' he added. 'For this purpose we identified 19 key localities throughout the distribution range highlighted by our model as important for the long-term survival of this rare species.'
On the one hand, tropical Southeast Asia is home to many different species, but on the other hand, it is also renowned for having the highest deforestation rate on our planet. Experts caution that biodiversity can be protected if habitats are watched over as well.
The research team is encouraging people to protect the highly threatened lowland and wetland forests in Southeast Asia and they are using the flat-headed cat to rouse people into action. Weighing up to two kilograms, the flat-headed cat is unique in that it uses its webbed feet to hunt fish and crabs within wetland habitats such as flooded peat forests and river banks in various tropical rainforests of Peninsular Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, among others.
Researchers from Australia, Denmark, Germany, Indonesia, Malaysia, Switzerland, the UK and the US also contributed to the study.

Subject: Chimeran Battleships Moving Toward Mexico
Reconnaissance teams have tracked four Chimeran battleships moving south. The
intersection of their projected trajectories appears to be the Chicxulub crater in Mexico.
Dr. Malikov, who has done extensive research on the purpose of the towers, asserts
that there is a connection between the towers, the fleet, and the Chicxulub crater. Dr
Malikov theorizes that the global network of towers is creating a kind of "spatial
distortion bubble" around the planet. This theory, however, has been dismissed by
several other members of SRPA's research division. The other researchers believe
that the web of energy created by the towers is a form of shield that is meant to guard
against a race that wiped out the Chimera off the planet millions of years ago.

Now that by some collective hemorrhage of reason Donald Trump has been elected president, I'm betting it won't be long before he goes too far and the American people start demanding his impeachment. So why wait? Let's get a jump start on impeaching Trump now so we can save some time and get back to hiring someone who's actually qualified to lead our country.

This was kind of strange in a way. Mr Tunkel left Poland in 1939 when the laughter stopped. Nicodemus Dodge, a seeming yokel from out of town, is hired at the printer's shop where the young Sam Clemens is working.
So what are all these listed joke books exactly?
The bookseller supplies a painstaking description of the item (revisions, repairs, smudging, fingerprinting and all) and says: The subject of the chapter is, in large part, reminiscence from Twain's days as a printer's apprentice.
Using the keyword jokes, it was an eye-opener when Abebooks found 54540 books involving listed in its database.
Published in Poland in 1931 was I Laugh at You, in Yiddish, by Joseph Tunkel. .
For $300 you can have David Henry Thoreaus Cape Cod in two volumes, reportedly Thoreau's sunniest, happiest book. It was the most expensive that came up under the search term jokes on Abebooks. Some jovial publisher obviously figured out also that the entire world loves a good joke or more than a hundred preferably. So I got sidetracked and ordered the book.
At the $15 level the joke books are more adult (OBrien and Fitzgerald Walk into a Bar: The Worlds Best Irish Jokes) and edgy (the Extremely Gross Jokes series). Most likely there were relationship books, car manuals, sports books, glossy novels, a gift books, unopened textbooks.
Perhaps there was a ragged cartoon book at the end of the shelf and one in the bathroom.
Judging from the listings in our Abillionbooks online bookstores, the whole world is in love with jokes, and books of jokes to such an extent, well, almost as much as it loves Paris Hilton. I reckon Texan jokes should tell me all I need to know.
Then I came across the title I Give you Texas! 500 Jokes of the Lone Star State.
But what jokes exactly? We did a random search at Abebooks, that new and usedbook giant that changed the face of the book trade worldwide, and came up with some interesting results.
And heres a joke for you. Its not fair and its not funny.
It is interesting too that so many of the books of jokes in this price range are aimed at kids. The locals hope to make Nicodemus the butt of their jokes only to find (as Twain notes in a phrase that was ultimately deleted), that they had fished for a sardine and caught a whale .
At the top of the price range ($100 and more) there were interesting discoveries, such as an album of 50 saucy not blue postcards from World War II. This kind of title should not really be thrown out by a search for jokes. My grandpa had some of those. Not a joke book to take to the pub perhaps but you can feel the laughter well up even so.
If you are prepared to stump up $77 500 dollars for a laugh, you can have the complete autograph manuscript of Chapter 23 of A Tramp Abroad by Mark Twain. Books containing Childrens good clean jokes is a recurring theme here.
At the bottom of the price range ($1) we found Spongebob, Rugrats, Dumb and Dumber Garfield and hundreds in the 101 Jokes series: 101 Vacation Jokes, 101 Telephone Jokes, 101 Pet Jokes you get the picture. Our search threw up The Joke by Milan Kundera. Funny huh?
Then there is the fabulously interesting title The Jokes of Sigmund Freud: A Study in Humor and Jewish Identity by Elliot Oring. I have always had a yearning to live in Texas although I know very little about it. Consider the title Rationale of the Dirty Joke: An Analysis of Sexual Humor. It bubbles over with jokes, puns, tall tales, and genial good humor, the bookseller says.
The old jokes are often the best. Of course there is a dark side to the joke industry the academics who Take It All Very Seriously.
When last did you check out a friends book shelf at their place? We are prepared to bet that books of jokes did not feature much, if at all

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Though Florida is adopting common core standards, the replacement for the FCAT test will be created solely for Florida.
Duval Superintendent Dr. Nikolai Vitti tells us there are economic benefits to using the same test as other states.
He says by using the same test, Florida can directly compare how its students are performing versus other states.
"And be demonstrating that our kids are doing better, it leads to more economic opportunities with businesses coming to Florida, investing in Florida and staying in Florida," Vitti says. "It also means that I think more kids would be going to college, and Florida could market that throughout the country."
Florida lawmakers agreed to a $220 million contract to have a test created based on the new "Florida standards." Though the state has adopted the Common Core standards, the "Florida standards" are tailored toward the state.
Vitti says the test will make it difficult to compare Florida to other states. Still, he's happy that the state is transitioning to Common Core standards, as he thinks it's a positive change for students.
"It'll lead to more engagement," he says. "I think it will challenge them and inspire them a bit more intellectually."
Vitti says the new test will be more of a challenge than the FCAT. He says students are required to apply more information. There are fewer multiple choice questions, short and extended responses, and more interactions with texts.

Busy days for Magnolia Little LeagueFebruary 10, 2017 | Posted by Maximilian Effgen
Busy days for Magnolia Little League
Baseball Skills Evaluations on February 4 were a success. There was a large turnout supporting the return of baseball and softball to Smith Cove Park on February 8. We are excited for Softball Skills Evaluations on this Saturday, February 11! All this and we are still about 1 month away from playing ball!
Softball Skills Evaluation
DATE: Saturday February 11th
TIME: 9am-12PM (See schedule below by Age Group)
PLACE: City Baseball Indoor Facility- 2901 West Commodore Way
Magnolia Little League will be holding a skills assessment for all 78ers and above (78ers, 89ers, Minors, Majors and Juniors). The purpose of the skills assessment is to assess whether players are registered in the appropriate division for their skill level, and to evenly distribute playing ability across all teams within a division.
Who must attend? ALL PLAYERS planning on playing Magnolia Little League softball this season in the 78ers and older divisions.
What time to attend?
9am-10am: League Ages 10+ (birth year 2002-2006); Minors, Majors and Juniors
10am-11am: League Ages 8-9 (birth year 2007-2008); note that 8 year olds who are registered as "89er" players should attend this session.
11am-12pm: League Ages <8 (birth year 2008-2011); note that 8 year olds who are registered as "78er" players should attend this session.
Please arrive 10 minutes before your evaluation time in order to check in and to do some stretching.
What will happen during the assessment?
After checking in, players will move through a series of skill stations appropriate to their age level. Coaches will be observing each skill taking notes. Our goal is to make it a positive experience and all the coaches understand it's pre-season.
What to bring?
This is an indoor facility with no heat so please dress appropriately. Players only need to bring their glove, helmet if they have one and water bottle. Bats and helmets will be provided, but players may choose to bring their own helmet and bat in a sports bag or pack.
Coaches should bring a clipboard and pen to take notes. We will provide evaluation sheets with the players names.
Please contact Becky Shields firstname.lastname@example.com with any questions.
City Baseball Mid-Winter Break Camp, February 21-23
City Baseball is offering a three-day all skills camp for players aged 6 – 13. The camps will focus on a broad range of skills to include infield, outfield, hitting and pitching.
Smith Cove Park Meeting
The Magnolia Community Center was packed on Wednesday night to learn about the redevelopment of Smith Cove Park. Exciting for Magnolia Little League is a baseball diamond being included into the design. The site had 2 diamonds when the Navy owned the site. While the design is not complete and there will be a long way to go, it is encouraging to see MLL's partnership with Seattle Parks improving. Thanks for your support!
Meeting Details: http://www.seattle.gov/parks/about-us/current-projects/smith-cove-park-development
Details on MLL's Seattle Parks Stewardship https://magnolialittleleague.com/parks-stewardship/
Baseball Skills Evaluations Follow Up
Last Saturday, February 4 saw nearly 140 ball players field, throw and hit for Managers and Coaches. Little League forms teams by draft at the Majors and AAA levels. When those drafts are complete, we will be able to start finalizing teams at the younger levels. We expect this to be nearly complete by the end of February. Just in time to play ball!

5th Deadly Sin:
Incorrect thread delivery method
Thread delivery is often overlooked when troubleshooting. Incorrect thread delivery adds drag and possible twisting to your thread which may create issues. Spools that are stack wound should wind off the side, not over the top. Cones should always unwind off the top, not off the side.
We've detailed this process in our Thread Holder video.

2019 BMW i8 Spyder Specs
Although the information on the brand new 2019 BMW i8 are quite limited, in any case, we are trying to help define the new model. This is above all the last vehicle for electric and hybrid drive in Germany. Lately, I experienced a wonderful resource among car fanatics in the electrical system, as well as the trailers of the BMW and also received excellent marks from critics cars. Enjoy the brand new i8 and our website.
2019 BMW i8Interior and Exterior
People who would certainly enjoy car would like to see what this vehicle shows. The low power consumption and exhaust gas can be calculated for the integrated combustion engine and also the electric motor, which takes advantage of the power. The interior features eye-catching features and technologically oriented, which are recognized by some of the latest innovations used.
The new i8S is also inclined to include a much more complete embedded design that can bring a much more threatening layout. This car would be offered in several varieties of neon to dark colors, eg black, silver, compatible with the environment and red. It can certainly be found in a selection of different colors ranging from red, green and intense to black to neon. After the vehicle mag, the new "i8S" will not only be a concept of masterpiece. However, several reports, said 2019 BMW i8 interior will be incredibly striking, as an example, the seat would appear extremely sharp. BMW plans to launch a complete production model by the year 2019.
2019 BMW i8 Engine Specs
2019 BMW i8, the actions of the direction smooth and is also to improve closed leather understanding. One is a dual turbo, 2.0 liter series that produces 204 hp 320 hp and an electric motor. The second power train consists of a 480 hp electric motor, I-6 3.0 liters and 109 hp. With this engine, this car will certainly be extraordinarily different from what comes before the series, with about 100 hp.
This super-new car uses two butterfly doors that further confirm that it is a modern sports car. Also included in the report is the case of the i8S a dual clutch transmission will have nine speeds. The participants in this futuristic vehicle also like to reach in a selection of very targeted links, including USB ports, connection for mobile, wireless Bluetooth, 4G Internet and Wi-Fi. The i8S offers peak at 155 mph and sprint at 62 mph in just 3 5 seconds. Some of the interior of leather-covered seats for sports, which are changeable, people of different sizes have the opportunity to enjoy the different car attributes.
2019 BMW i8 Release Date and Price
BMW i8 2019 assured the manufacturer that the car that would be released next year will surely make you feel amazed and impressed by the modern technology that is used in this 2019 BMW i8. The market is preparing for this car to safely replace US $ 137,450. The release date of this new car in the second half of 2019. The main competitors should be the Nissan GT-R and Tesla Model S, which is almost similar to the Sensational as the BMW i8 can not be a faster trip.

Brussels Charity Shop Haul Part 2
So comes the second part of mother's haul for me in the Brussels second hand shops... I think my favourite of all her pieces is the Monet print maxi-skirt, which I can't wait to wear this summer. I'm a bit obsessed with any clothes covered in an art print, because I'm such a fan of colour and texture and ideally I would just wear acrylic paint print. My second favourite was without a doubt the colourful Kimono (possible summer wedding wear?) which you could wear open with a casual outfit underneath or as an ankle length dress.
This slinky black dress (and yes, by slinky I mean "probably too small for me right now") is Moschino Cheap and Chic, which mum picked up for about 14 EUR (so about 10 quid!) and I adore it, the back detail is really lovely and it's all very gothic italian riviera.
This kimono is absolutely everything! I love how graphic the print is, which stops it from looking too traditional (I tend to get shouted at on the internet for cultural appropriation on a semi-regular basis)
This little retro (70s, I think) top is quite of the moment with the split shoulders and cropped style. I'll probably wear it with high waisted jeans because it does look a bit 'gamboling through the prairie' when paired with a long skirt.

Campaign signs vandalised in Denholme
Members of the Thornton Moor Windfarm Action Group are appalled by recent acts of vandalism in Denholme.
4 campaign banners have been vandalised within a week, the total of which amounts to hundreds of pounds.
All the damage has been reported to West Yorkshire Police who are now investigating a few lines of enquiry. We have attached a photograph of one of the damaged banners in the hope that someone may recognise the handwriting, which is the same on all the signs that have been written on.
In the meantime, it is business as usual for the campaign, and all signs will be repaired or replaced very shortly.
If you have a prominent position on which you would be willing to display a campaign banner, please get in touch and help us fight against the industrialisation of our green belt.
Ovenden Windfarm Open Day cancelled
Having booked in for a visit to the existing Ovenden Moor Windfarm today at 10am, we turned up clad in our wet weather gear, only to be turned away by an Eon employee.
Needless to say that having not been told about the cancellation, we were annoyed at being turned away. However, we were told that due to the health and safety risks from the thunder and lightening in the area, no one is allowed within the windfarm.
Now that we have been told that directly by a windfarm employee, TMWAG would like to know if the Bronte Way will be classed as part of the windfarm, and will that too be off bounds to the public in such weather if our 4 turbines are given the go ahead????
An Eon representative has confirmed this afternoon that the entire event for Friday and Saturday has now been cancelled. However if anyone would indeed still like to take a visit to see inside a turbine, please get in touch with us at email@example.com and we will try our best to arrange something for us as a group.
There's more to Denholme than Windfarms!!
Denholme Town Council is holding a Community Engagement Event on 19th July 2012, in the hope that local residents will attend and tell local councillors what they think about their community and how it could be improved.
Full details can be found on the attached poster. Please circulate amongst others in Denholme as much as you can, including the elderly, and with people that may not have access to the Internet.
Parliament requests submissions on the economics of wind power
The Energy and Climate Change Committee will hold a public evidence session on the Economics of Wind Power at 10.00 am on Tuesday 10 July.
The Committee invites short submissions of evidence with a limit of two A4 sides (see 'Notes on Submissions' below). These may contain references or links to other documents and material but should briefly set out the key points.
Evidence should be submitted by 5pm on 27 June. Submissions should contain an indication of whether or not you would like to give oral evidence to the Committee.
Witnesses for the session will be selected on the basis of the submissions received and will be notified on 3 July as to whether they will be called.
The Committee is particularly interested in the following, although written submission need not address all, or be confined to, these questions:
What do cost benefit analyses tell us about onshore and offshore wind compared with other measures to cut carbon?
What do the latest assessments tell us about the costs of generating electricity from wind power compared to other methods of generating electricity?
How do the costs of onshore wind compare to offshore wind?
What are the costs of building new transmission links to wind farms in remote areas and how are these accounted for in cost assessments of wind power?
What are the costs associated with providing back up capacity for when the wind isn't blowing, and how are these accounted for in cost assessments of wind power?
How much support does wind power receive compared with other forms of renewable energy?
Is it possible to estimate how much consumers pay towards supporting wind power in the UK? (i.e. separating out from other renewables)
What lessons can be learned from other countries?
What methods could be used to make onshore wind more acceptable to communities that host them?
Tim Yeo MP, Chair of the Committee, said: "Government policy on wind power should be based on sound economics and engineering, not political pressure from a small vocal minority – whether that be green campaigners or anti-wind protestors.
In this session we want to cut through all the hot air talked about wind power and examine whether the economics really add up.
Wind farms are over forty times less polluting than gas burning power stations – per unit of energy produced – but there are concerns about the costs to consumers.
We will be asking if the Chancellor is right to consider cutting onshore wind power subsidies? And how much these subsidies really add to our electricity bills?
Does it really make financial sense to generate low-carbon electricity from wind? Or are there cheaper ways to cut carbon emissions from our power stations?"
The Committee is participating in a visit to the London Array and Gunfleet Sands Windfarms on 13 June.
Notes on Submissions
Submissions should be in Word or rich text format, please do not use PDF format, and sent by e-mail to email@example.com.

Banks really are coining it in…
…and we don't mean Banks Rewewables believe it or not!
A simple internet search has revealed that Yorkshire Water is part of the Kelda Group, which was acquired in 2008 by the 'Saltaire Water Global Infrastructure Fund'. This entity is a consortium made up of organisations including HSBC, Infracapital, Citigroup and GIC (the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation).
'So what?' I hear you ask. Well there are 2 issues to be aware of;
1) Some of the profits being generated now are making their way across to the bankers, some of which aren't even in this country. HSBC have already sold their stake to the other members of the consortium, making Citi Infrastructure Investors the majority stakeholder at 47%. Also, the holding company, Kelda Holdings Ltd is actually based in Jersey, where many UK businesses seek respite from the high levels of tax payable in their own country.
2) Yorkshire Water owns 80,000 acres of land, thus is one of the region's largest land owners. That's alot of wind turbines they could install across the region. Bearing in mind that Yorkshire Water was originally born from privatisation, this is land that was basically gifted to them in the 1980′s.
So the moral of the story is… don't think that Yorkshire Water will not try to make the most of their land. As well as looking at developing a wind farm at Thornton Moor, they are currently exploring the possibility of erecting 24 turbines in the Harrogate area. They have already erected turbines at Loftsome Bridge Treatment works in Hull, Ovenden Moor is due for repowering soon, and planning permission is currently being sought for a 85m turbine at Graincliffe Reservoir in Bingley. We would think that they may also appeal to have turbines erected at Chelker Reservoir near Bolton Abbey, and Thornton Steward in Wensleydale.
We would imagine that one Kelda company, Kelda Eurobond, having directors with many other directorships in wind farm companies may be the drive behind their strategy. One example is James Cooper, who has at least 9 wind farm directorships under his belt.
Despite the above information, there still lies a very important question…
What does YW/Kelda/Saltaire Water or whatever they want to call themselves, stand to gain by leasing their land to another developer, when they are more than capable of developing their own windfarm, as currently being demonstrated in Harrogate? It cannot be that they are afraid of backlash from their proposals, because the 'Save the Dales' campaign is giving them a run for their money, just as is TMWAG to Banks. It could be that they are perhaps trying to give the illusion that it is someone else subitting the contentious proposals for Thornton Moor, after all, they are choosing contentious sites elsewhere, and to add another contentious site to their list could be a PR nightmare… couldn't it?
If you have any ideas, answers on a postcard please!!

Turbine Tracker Updated!
Several new additions have been made to the TMWAG Turbine Tracker, including pending planning applications for a turbine near the Flappits Pub at Cullingworth, and the 84m turbine near Dick Hudsons at Eldwick. Please click here for more information.
Wind mast due within 2 months
Banks Renewables have confirmed that the wind mast will be erected on Thornton Moor within the next 6-8 weeks (correct as of 23rd May 2012).
Confirmation of this expected installation period was confirmed to Denholme Town Council after they wrote to the company asking the question, so they could keep residents informed.
Banks Renewables have otherwise not made any contact with anyone in the local community to inform them of the progress of their project, despite claims in all their press releases that they will "continue to keep everyone fully up-to-date" as they move towards finalising our planning application."

AFTERNOON-OVERNIGHT: Clouds and scattered areas of rain continue to move across the forecast zones this morning. While none of these showers are heavy, some areas of more moderate rain are ongoing.
Scattered areas of rain will continue moving across zones 1 and 5 in both Indiana and Ohio this afternoon. By 1-2 pm the NAM 4km shows those areas of rain still in place across the forecast zones.
By 5-6 PM rain will continue moving across Indiana and Ohio. A couple of areas of focus will be to the west where some better rain coverage will be moving in. To the north there will be a wind shift/boundary along the area of high pressure, along that boundary some more areas of rain will develop this evening as well.
Through the evening it does look like rain coverage will increase, especially from I-70 southward. By 10-11 pm the rain will be moving through Indiana and into Ohio.
Through the overnight the rain will continue moving off to the east and out of the forecast area. While most of the rain will be exiting, some showers will remain overnight, especially along the boundary/wind shift associated with the incoming high pressure system.
Lows overnight will be in the mid 40's north to around 50 south.
New rainfall totals will be heaviest across zone 6 and perhaps southern zone 1 in Indiana where .40-.65" of new rain will be possible, especially farther west. However, average new rainfall through the overnight will be closer to .20-.40".
WEDNESDAY: Wednesday morning an area of high pressure will be working into the forecast area from the north. However, the latest forecast soundings show a pretty saturated environment by 7-8 AM, especially across Indiana. This will lead to clouds and perhaps some light showers/mist early Wednesday morning.
Through the day high pressure will start to spread in along with drier air. While this should allow some sunshine to get through, there still will likely be some areas that are mostly cloudy while others are mostly sunny. For this reason, I will call for a mix of clouds and sunshine on Wednesday with perhaps a stray afternoon shower.
Highs on Wednesday will be in the low to mid 60's.
Wednesday night skies will become mostly clear across the forecast zones. Lows overnight will fall into the low 40's north to around 50 south.
THURSDAY: The area of high pressure will remain in control of the weather across zones 1 and 5 through the daytime hours on Thursday. This will allow for mostly sunny skies through late morning to early afternoon.
Highs on Thursday will be in the mid 60's north to low 70's south.
A developing area of low pressure will be moving this way from the southwest by Thursday afternoon. As the low pushes this way clouds will be on the increase from south to north through the afternoon into the evening.
Thursday night clouds will overspread both zones from southwest to northeast. However, models are holding the precipitation off across Indiana and Ohio through the overnight, so dry conditions are expected.
FRIDAY: The area of low pressure will be moving closer to, then to the south of the forecast zones through the daytime hours on Friday. Depending on the exact track of the low pressure center rain chances could need increased or decreased.
The models are not in good agreement with low track/rainfall chances at all for Friday. The GFS brings in some heavier rain and storms across southern Indiana and into Ohio through the day on Friday.
However, the latest 12z NAM shows very little rain.
The EURO is a bit farther south than the GFS, but is right between the NAM and GFS with rainfall coverage/intensity. This is a forecast we will have to fine-tune in the coming days.
Highs on Friday will be dependent on rainfall. For right now we will call for highs in the upper 50's to mid 60's.
WEEKEND: This weekend's forecast remains a bit complicated, mainly because of model inconsistency. As we mentioned yesterday, a "cut off" low at 500 mb was forecast to remain over the region through most of the weekend.
This low would bring with it unsettled and cool weather.
While some model runs continue to favor this solution, others continue to allow the upper-level trough/low to exit somewhat quicker. This would result in a drier and warmer weekend.
While I will agree with the upper-level trough/low ejecting a bit quicker, I think clouds will likely hinder temperatures.
Highs will be in the 60's Saturday with mid 60's to low 70's possible Sunday afternoon.
LONG-RANGE (NEXT WEEK): The upper-level trough will start to eject off to the east late in the weekend into early next week. Behind it an upper-level ridge of high pressure will start to build into the forecast region.
This ridge will allow drier and warmer conditions to start off next week.

TAIPEI (Taiwan News)--Taiwan's hurdling star Chen Jie (陳傑) said during a radio station interview last week that he is aiming for medals at the 2017 Taipei Summer Universiade in August.
The 25-year-old athlete has had two previous Universiade appearances (2011 and 2015) and two Olympic appearances (2012 and 2016).
On hurdling, Chen said during the interview that even though at first his father hoped he could become a baseball player, he was attracted to his father's posture of sailing over the hurdles, and that attraction had dragged him into track and field athletics.

After going to high school, Chen specialized in 400m sprint and 400m hurdles and began to receive formal training. His best 400m sprint performance (46.35 seconds) set a national record, and in the 2015 National Games, he broke the national 400m hurdles record with 49.05 seconds, which qualified him for the 2016 Rio Olympics. Chen has been seen as an athletics rising star for his enormous talent and hardworking attitudes.
In his sprint towards greatness, he has also suffered setbacks. Chen recalled having lost self-confidence when he failed to qualify for an Asian Games. He said he paid for the trip to that year's Asian Games out of his own pocket in order to cheer for his buddies, and seeing them receive medals on the podium made him to swear: "I must make it to the next Asian Games, and for every race hereafter, I won't only sit in the auditorium."
Chen Jie (photo courtesy of Taipei City Government)
"49 seconds is not the best, but only a threshold to compete with the world," Chen said, adding that the difference of Olympics and Universiade lies in the age restriction. The Olympics gathers all the best athletes from around the world regardless of their age and is filled with star athletes and characterized by packed auditoriums, he said.
After the Olympic experiences, Chen said he felt more pressure at the Olympics because an Olympic athlete is in fact a national flag bearer, representing his or her own country. He said now he has learned how to enjoy competition and how to set goals, adding that he has focused on the upcoming Taipei Universiade and hoped to peak for the event.
Chen said Universiade athletes are more passionate and have more interaction with each other. The athletes' cafeteria is like a social place, he said, recalling seeing a group of athletes dancing on dining tables. After the event, athletes of different countries exchanged clothes and souvenirs and turned the moment after the sporting event was over into a boisterous international flea market, Chen said, adding that he was looking forward to the coming of the Taipei Universiade.
As for the home court advantage, Chen said he will use it to focus more on the competition since he won't have to worry about food, weather, and time differences. He said he hoped to maintain his best physical conditions, put out his best efforts, and retain medals in Taiwan, calling on the public to come to cheer not only for him but also for athletics and for Taiwan.

This is a great no sew style project that you can do either for yourself or with or for your daughter, niece, friend, sister or whoever you like which is a lot of fun and will help add a bit of a boho, hippy seventies feel to everyone's wardrobes.
3. Once you have finishing making your cuts all the around the bottom of the top, it's handy to pull on these strips to make the fabric curl a little bit for a better affect. They should look like this.
4. Final step and then you're done is to tie a simple single knot at the top of each strip, as shown and then you or your little one are free as birds to enjoy.

Haddonfield Child Care has recently learned that there is no existing in-district space for the EDKP (Extended Day Kindergarten Program) during the 2016-17 school year.
We are actively looking for alternative locations and are committed to making every effort to provide our EDKP program in the coming year. However, at this point in time we do not have enough information to hold a meaningful information session.
We hope to be able to provide more information to interested families in the coming month. As soon as that information is available, we will schedule a Parent Information Night and EDKP Registration.
Watch this website or our Facebook page for updated information on those events.
Please note: This situation does not affect our regular before and after school programs. Parents may register at any time for those programs for the current or upcoming school year.

I have had the pleasure of staying here on a couple of occasions, and will be returning at the end of November! It's true the hotel is not in the centre of town, but a 15 minute tram ride ( or 25 Euro) is not to much to pay for peace and quiet, I have always found all of the staff to be friendly and helpful and the view of the canal is lovely. I have never been upgraded, but that doesn't bother me as the rooms I have been allocated have been more than acceptable. I think I caught them unawares last time and was sent water and chocolates about 10 minutes after checking in, but that's because I am currently a gold member. Nice touch, it all helps when you are away from home.
