So you have a social media marketing strategy. So what? Just because you have a strategy doesn't mean it's effective. My grandpa has a social media marketing strategy, which involves successfully logging into his Facebook account and updating his status each and every day to "Still kicking" with a link to an advertisement for pickles. Effective marketing strategy? Potentially – if he had the fan base of Chuck Berry rather than an impressive following of 22 (all of whom are family members).
To be successful, no social media effort can be treated as an island. Anyone can sign up for a Facebook account or create a LinkedIn profile, but it doesn't mean anyone's paying attention – including you. Implementing a social media strategy into your marketing plan requires effort. But more than that, it requires empathy. The question is – how do you get there?
The first step in any conversation is listening. Does this surprise you? Many – actually most of us – think that the first step is talking. This is why most of us lose the majority of our audience before we even complete a sentence. Successful marketers also understand that they are customer service agents – we provide the forum for communication, then open it up to our customers as a safe place to tell us what they like – and what they don't like.
What are your customers telling you? We all like getting feedback – when it's positive. We don't only notice this kind of feedback first, we tend to seek it out because selfishly it's what we want to hear. What happens when we hear from a customer who is unhappy, or even worse, angry? We often run from and ignore this type of communication. In actuality, this communication is probably the most valuable. Your customers are taking the time to tell you what they want to see from you and how you can do better. They are giving you ideas on how to improve your business and products.
So now that you have identified what your customer is saying, how do you respond? Social media involves socializing. Put yourself in your customers' shoes – what would you want to hear from your favorite brand? The message you send out shapes your image and can transform it overnight – good or bad. Imagine sitting at a table and having a conversation with your customer – what are you telling them? When you engage your audience as a tangible person rather than an obscure corporation, the quality of the conversation will change entirely.
This may be the most important component of a successful social media marketing strategy. Once you have engaged your audience and communicated a plan of action, the next step is following through with it. If you tell a customer that you are going to do something – do it. It's easy to speak words, but taking the feedback you've received, disseminating it through the proper channels and producing results is the effort your customers need to see. By turning your words into action, you will position yourself as a credible and trustworthy brand.
Implementing a successful social media marketing strategy doesn't happen overnight. Each stage of the process relies upon the last and is a continual, ongoing process. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither are meaningful customer relationships. By taking these steps, and dispersing them throughout your social media channels, you can achieve optimal results and become a brand that others will look to emulate.

Long Beach
Story Highlights
- First IndyCar win
- Restarts key to victory
Mike Conway storms to victory in the IndyCar Grand Prix of Long Beach
Mike Conway secured his first victory in IndyCar with a storming drive through the field at Long Beach, California
After two difficult free practice sessions on Friday which saw Conway struggling for pace, the Andretti Autosport team worked solidly on the car's set up overnight. With the set up issues resolved, Mike was able to pull together a solid lap time in Saturday's qualifying session which saw him line up third on the grid.
As the race went green, Conway made a good start and maintained his third position behind team-mate Hunter-Reay. The top three cars were matching each other for pace and quickly pulled away from the rest of the pack.
Continuing to push hard, Conway set the fastest lap of the race on lap nine and had the gap between him and Hunter-Reay down to 0.5 seconds.
On lap 26 the race was put under full caution which caused the field to bunch back up. A lap later the pit lane was opened and everyone made the decision to pit immediately. Conway unfortunately slightly overshot his pit box which saw him lose valuable time, and with everyone else pitting at the same time meant he rejoined down the field in P21.
Conway then spent the next part of the race making his way through the field. A combination of solid lap times coupled with the decision to pit late meant that by the time Mike pitted on lap 61 he was able to rejoin the track in P11.
Just two laps later there was a second full caution due to two separate incidents which saw five of the leading cars taken off. Conway was now running solidly in P6 with only 16 laps to go.
With the race green, Conway got a fantastic restart and was up into P3 by the first corner. He then executed a further two impressive overtaking moves; firstly on Franchitti and then on race leader Briscoe to take the lead.
In clean air, Conway's blistering pace was immediately apparent and within three laps he had pulled out a four second lead on Briscoe. Conway continued to push hard right up until the chequered flag where he crossed the finish line over six seconds ahead of second place and secured his first IndyCar victory.
It's a fantastic feeling to win my first IndyCar race.
"It's a fantastic feeling to win my first IndyCar race. I'd qualified well so was hopeful for a good finish but then my mistake at the first pitstop cost me and saw me at the back of the field. I knew I had a good car so it was a case of pushing on and working my way back up to the front. The car was so strong today and really came to life at the restarts. While the others seemed to struggle to get heat into their tyres I didn't have this problem and was able to work my way right to the front;" commented Mike Conway.
"I want to say a huge thank you to the team for all the work they've put in this weekend and for giving me such a fantastic car to race. We now head to Sao Paulo for the next race in two weeks and I will be looking for another strong race there;" continued Mike Conway.
Mike Conway heads to Sao Paulo on 1st May for round four of the 2011 IZOD IndyCar Series.

Four people were taken to the hospital after a station wagon crashed into the Crossville post office Monday afternoon.
Police said a 68-year-old woman was trying to park in one of the spaces in front of the post office when she accidentally hit the gas instead of the brake pedal, sending the station wagon over the curb, across the sidewalk and front landscaping and into the front of the building.
The crash happened around 12:15 p.m.
Crossville police said the station wagon crashed through the glass windowed front wall and came to rest against the counter.
Three bystanders received minor injuries and were taken by ambulance, along with the driver, to Cumberland Medical Center for evaluation.
Police said no charges are pending at this time.

Looking for kids activities or crafts for a fall party?
Here are 5 of my favorite ideas for a fall birthday party – or just about any time of the year. They're easy, budget-friendly and, best of all, loads of fun. We have both a DIY apple stamp and a potato stamp as well as ideas for a pumpkin carving contest an owl made out of a re-purposed toilet paper roll and more!

1. Apple Stamping from The Juggling Act Mama: I started doing some apple stamping with Sam last year and he loves it. What better craft for a party in the fall?
2. DIY Potato Stamps from The Juggling Act Mama; While we're talking about making stamps out of food, you'll also want to check out this post. It's a tiny bit more involved but still plenty of fun for fall party.

You've made the decision to finally remodel the outdated kitchen and living room of your home. But if you live in a house built before 1978, a federal law regulating the removal of lead paint will affect your home remodeling project if you hire a professional remodeler.
In 1978, the use of lead paint was officially banned from residential construction. Before that, however, lead paint was used in more than 38 million homes, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Since 2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes built before 1978 have been required to be trained and then certified by EPA and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination. Make sure your home is tested for the presence of lead-based paint before you begin any work – and don't take chances by hiring a contractor who says that testing isn't necessary and skipping the required practices can cut you a break on costs. That contractor is breaking the law.
During a renovation or remodel, lead-paint dust can fill the air and be inhaled. Small children could ingest lead paint chips that fall from the wall. For young children, lead poisoning can cause learning disabilities, hearing loss and behavior problems. In adults, lead poisoning can lead to hypertension and high blood pressure. Pregnant women run the risk of passing the poison on to their unborn child.
EPA has a free brochure on its website called "Renovate Right" that provides guidance to home owners and contractors about the safe removal of lead paint. An EPA-certified contractor will follow these specific work practices:
Contain the work area so that dust and debris do not escape. Warning signs will be put up, and heavy-duty plastic and tape will seal off doors and heating and cooling system vents, and also cover the floors and any furniture that cannot be moved.
Minimize dust. There is no way to eliminate dust, but some paint removal methods create less dust than others. Some examples include using water to mist areas before sanding or scraping, scoring paint before separating components, and prying and pulling apart components instead of breaking them. Methods that generate large amounts of dust and therefore should not be used include open flame burning or torching, sanding, grinding, planing, needle gunning, blasting with power tools and equipment not equipped with a shroud and high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter vacuum attachment, or using a heat gun at temperatures greater than 1100°F.
Clean up thoroughly. When all the work is done, and before taking down any plastic that isolates the work area from the rest of the home, the area should be sanitized using special cleaning methods. These methods include using a HEPA vacuum to clean up dust and debris on all surfaces, followed by wet mopping with plenty of water.
To become certified, a firm and a contractor within that firm must submit an application to the EPA and complete a federal or state-administered eight-hour class with two hours of hands-on training.

|I'm already trying to make up why this # is good luck. It's my 10 miler # + 20?
I'm excited for this half because it's the first where I really plan to race. This is my third half. My first was "I am in intense pain and sick, but I will cross the finish line". My second was "Let me see if I can run the entire thing". (Spoiler - I did). This one is "I have trained my butt off - let's DO this."
I definitely have goals.
a.) PR. This is inevitable. My current PR is 2:29:45. The training runs that I've been doing - at easy pace - are faster than this.
b.) 2:15 . This is a safety goal. I really feel that I can get here with no issues, but it's still working hard.
c.) 2:10. This feels right? Sort of? McMillan has me at 2:07 which seems too much of a stretch. Or am I underestimating myself...
The thing is, even with my goals I'm very much in the mile when I run. I'm very bad at the mental math, so I really won't know until I get towards the last few miles where I am. Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration - I will have my mile splits, so I'll have some idea.
I'm excited and nervous about this race. It's ~1,300 people, which compared to my other two halves (Disney) is distinctly smaller. On the plus side I will have my cousin cheering me on - she said she will be at two places on the course, plus at the end.
|Love ya lots, Pammy!
I was a lazy bum today, fueled myself wonderfully (what - meatball subs are awesome the day before a race), the weather looks gorgeous...I'm ready to dominate.
Watch out Half of Quincy - I'm comin' for ya!

The Shaw Festival triumphs with a provocative Top Girls
Reviewed by Jamie Portman
Photo: David Cooper.
NIAGARA-ON-THE-LAKE, Ont. — There's no doubt about it. The Shaw Festival's new production of Caryl Churchill's Top Girls is a dazzler of a show — provocative, invigorating, hilarious, heart-wrenching. It allows us to feast on a seemingly effortless display of stunning ensemble acting that deserves a triple underlining in the memory books.
The show that made a triumphant arrival at the Court House Theatre Saturday night can claim any number of attention-grabbing sequences, thanks to Vikki Anderson's incisive direction and the astonishing work of her seven-member cast, almost all of them in a variety of roles. But there's a particularly pivotal scene involving Marlene, a woman obsessed with proving that women can be a success in business and ruthless in her determination to claw her way to power within the Top Girls Employment Agency.

The Twelve-Pound Look. A forgotten J.M. Barrie play delights at the Shaw Festival
Reviewed by Jamie Portman
Photo: David Cooper.
When it comes to live theatre, some of the nicest surprises come in the smallest of packages.
This year's Shaw Festival lunchtime presentation is an absolute gem — a 105-year-old playlet from Peter Pan creator J.M. Barrie who reveals himself here as a sympathetic advocate of women's rights.
This funny and provocative one-actor, The Twelve-Pound Look by name, is not overtly political, but it was written at a time when Britain's suffragettes were actively campaigning for a woman's right to vote. And the suffrage movement has clear parallels to the play's preoccupations — the right of a woman to think and behave independently and to be an equal partner in a relationship.

The Pirates of Penzance: A campy musical comedy performance at the Springer Theatre that has its fun moments!
Reviewed by Alvina Ruprecht

Whatever one does to a Gilbert and Sullivan production, the original witty book and lyrics, the music, the operatic influences, the satire and the perfectly delightful characters /caricatures, all come through in the end. The works of Gilbert and Sullivan are indestructible and that is exactly what I kept thinking through this recent matinee performance in Gananoque as the pirates and the Major General's daughters lapsed into a wild Charleston to celebrate their collective marriage . This new contemporary version, the first really campy production of G and S I have ever seen, was apparently done to show the Americans, those "Yankee Boozers" on the other side of the river who visit the Playhouse, that we too can do the kind of musical comedy they know best. We too have our own G and S or Gin and Soda style of stage fun.That was what we learned during the prologue to the show which preceded the overture. .

Best show: The Elephant Girls: this original show was the result of historical research which could possibly become an important text in the Canadian repertoire. Margo Macdonald's excellent interpretation took the actor into an area of solo performance that was uncharted for her and could be the beginning of a new orientation of her own stage work.

Laurie Fyffe and Michelle Leblanc. Photo: Annette Hegel.
The Bytown Museum, with its historical atmosphere, physical references to the founding of Ottawa and the life of the early settlers in the area, provides the most perfect set one could imagine for this performance. It takes place between 1764 and 1769 between London England and Quebec City, several years after the battle of the Plains of Abraham (1759) when France lost its most important colony in North America. Laurie Fyffe incarnates the British playwright/novelist/essayist and translator, Frances Brooke (1724-89) annoyed by the male dominated theatre milieu in London, after her last play, Victoria was rejected by the reading committee. Her husbad is pastor in the the new British Colony in Quebec, " that orphaned colony of French peasants" and she is rushing out to join him where she hopes to discover a new land, and revive her work as a writer. She arrives accompanied by her French maid Manon (Michelle LeBlanc) and the story explains how they pass those three years in Quebec City, discovering the history of the country, the elegant social and cultural life of the new British colony with all its military personal, and trying to adapt to Canadian winters which are unbearable.

EFT-up: Just Like You
Reviewed by Rajka Stefanovska
Experimental Farm Theatre is a comedy collective who base their work on interesting contemporary stories. Given the fact that Ottawa improv-comedy is still small, they decided to jump in and enrich it by their endeavour. They produce funny sketches, and, as they say, "We're trying to get people to just be present and be really perceptive listeners and to advance the story rather than just sacrifice it for the sake of jokes." Very sound and admirable attitude!
Their first Fringe appearance, EFT-up: Just Like You, proves mean what they say. They find material for the script in the contemporary world: running for mayor, falling in love with the phone, having to spend a night in a disastrous hotel. Another point in their favour is that they don't only rely on jokes, but rather try to develop strong characters. The audience's reaction confirms that they are funny. Well, yes, they are energetic, fun to watch, and, sure, the potential is there. Some of material is hilarious, some not so much. Execution is engaging from time from time, though sometimes it is less successful. It is evident that there's still a lot of learning and polishing to do, but I believe that Experimental Farm Theatre is on the right track. Hopefully, we will see them next year with even better material and acting skills. Still, EFT-up: Just Like You is an enjoyable show to watch.

Lara Loves Leonard
Reviewed by Rajka Stefanovska
After seeing Lara MacMillan's exquisite show, Lara Loves Leonard, one understands that it is not just a title of yet another performance at the 2015 Ottawa Fringe Festival. It's the simple truth: Lara MacMillan loves Leonard Cohen! That love is embedded in every song she sings and in every verse she says.
This show is a tribute to Cohen. MacMillan's interpretation of his work oozes emotion – passion, desire, and affection. Her voice and her silence speak volumes equally and keep the audience under their spell. By her precise pace and tone, she electrifies every corner of the venue, from the simple stage where she stands alone, to the visitors in the last row. Increasingly, one moment after another, she builds a magic atmosphere of love and tranquility. By the end, one feels that a whole new world living in Cohen's poetry and music opens up to those willing to listen. With her honesty, expressiveness and deep understanding of art, Lara MacMillan proves to be a perfect transmitter.
Lara Loves Leonard is an absolute must for those who love Leonard Cohen, music, poetry, or simply for those who are in search for an extraordinary 60 minutes.

Reviewed by Alvina Ruprecht

Such a delightful , refreshing, witty, beautifully performed, impeccably choreographed show was truly an astonishing discovery at this Fringe. Scott Garland, Matt Pilipiak, and Victor Pokinko breezed through this Jerome K Jerome adaptation as though they really belonged in that world of middle class English snobbery (with accents and all) seeking a rousing experience in contact with true, unadulterated nature. Mark Borwnell's adaptation respects the spirit of the story to the letter but it's these three young men, deftly directed by Sue Miner, who create magic in the Leonard Beaulne Studio.

Civil War in the Southwest
Picacho Peak State Park
March 18-19, 2017
About the reenactment
Each year thousands of spectators come to Picacho Peak State Park to watch re-enactments of an Arizona Civil War skirmish and the New Mexico battles of Glorieta and Val Verde.
Visitors travel from around the country to experience three reenactments of historic battles complete with lifestyles of the soldiers in the southwest during the 1860s. More than 200 re-enactors come from many states and will camp at the park with their authentic Civil War camping gear. Food and beverage concessions are also available, including the popular Kettle Corn vendor.
Civil War battles across America were well documented and history teachers carefully covered each battle across the East Coast, but few ever thought about what was happening in the West during this time. A battle of the American Civil War was a skirmish fought near a rocky spire called Picacho Peak located between Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona. The new highway follows the old wagon route that passed Picacho in 1862.
History of the battles
In 1860 the New Mexico Territory, which consisted of the lands that would become the states of Arizona and New Mexico, was sparsely populated. It ranked 34th in population out of 43 states and territories with only 83,009 inhabitants. It was 37th in black populations, with just 8 whom were all free. When the Civil War broke out in 1861, the U.S. Government recalled the majority of its troops from the West to build the Union army for the fighting in the east. Henry Hopkins Sibley joined the Confederacy and convinced Jefferson Davis that he would raise an army in Texas and invade New Mexico territories. He proposed that mineral resources would fill the coffers of the Confederacy and fund their massive war effort.

There is an accessible 0.3-mile footpath that leads from the parking to the event area that can be navigated with strollers and wheelchairs.
Consider bringing a folding chair to sit and watch the battles. Shade canopies are permitted, but please be considerate and do not block the view of other spectators.
Food and drink concessions are available throughout the event weekend, but coolers are permitted. Seating is provided in the food vendor area.
Be "Sun Smart!" Temperatures in the Sonoran Desert in March can climb to 90 degrees and higher. So bring enough water for yourself and your group, high SPF sunblock, covering for your head and perhaps shoulders, and sensible footwear.
If you bring children, please note:
- The ground in the event area is uneven and rocky, but strollers and wagons can be navigated throughout the event area.
- Young children may become frightened by the loud noise from the guns or cannons, so consider bringing hearing protection. Hearing protection will NOT be distributed at the event or in the park.
Wheelchair users please note the event grounds are uneven and rocky so you may need assistance to get around.
Please do not bring pets! "Civil War in the Southwest" reenactors fire cannons that can startle and frighten pets, causing them to run away. Wildlife in the area may prove dangerous to domestic animals.

We have signed up to Ways of Working and also have a set of values that we believe strongly in.
Our four values and behaviours are:
Fair – We will be consistent, proportionate, evidence-based and free from bias, prejudice or discrimination in all that we do.
Accountable - We will be open about the way in which we work and reach decisions in the public interest, while safeguarding the personal and confidential data that we hold.

Constructive - We will work positively and courteously with our internal and external stakeholders to ensure that their needs and views are taken fully into account in all we do.
As an organisation our culture is always developing and it is highly influenced by our change programme which is fully underway. We've listened to our employee feedback from the annual and mini engagement surveys. As a result we have started a leadership development programme to focus on establishing effective and inspiring ways of working to influence how all employees operate.
We achieved a 95% response rate in our 2016 employee survey, which is a fantastic and commendable result. It shows our employees believe we will listen to what they say. Since the results in 2015 we have made a massive amount of change and it is evident in the feedback received in 2016 that we are making those changes obvious for our employees to see and experience.
Gambling Commission employee survey results 2016
We provide a fully communicated people strategy, an employee assistance programme, restructuring of roles and reporting lines to improve opportunities for our employees and regular and informative internal communication such as a weekly news summary, opportunities to chat with the leadership team including the chief executive and topic-based employees briefings.

Discontinued App
Educational | iPhone, iPad
Multiplication tables is a fundamental building block of math. The basic multiplication table starts at 1 x 1 and proceeds to 10 x 10. The best way to give children the confidence they need in math is to make sure they understand the basics of multiplication. Children nowadays no longer memorize their multiplication tables. With the extensive school curriculum, teachers cannot afford to take the time to ensure that students learn these basic facts. Parents play a critical role in the supporting their children in learning the basics at home. It is important for every child to learn the multiplication table, to prepare them for learning division and fractions. Math Tables Karaoke is also meant to brush up the tables for adults. When you eat out at a restaurant or measuring the area of a room, you unwittingly use multiplication tables. Now here's MATH TABLES KARAOKE, a Fun way to learn & memorize the Multiplication Tables. Math Tables Karaoke is an educational application that transforms learning the multiplication table into a fun & interactive game. Math Tables Karaoke aids in early learning for early grade schoolers, and older kids. Math Tables Karaoke uses three different methods to teach multiplication table factors from 1-10, and takes full advantage of the smart device's ability to record and play back sound. Math Tables Karaoke features include: • Fun and interactive • Simple controls • Clear audio • Three "Modes", Learn, Quiz and Karaoke • Learn mode, to see and hear the multiplication tables • Karaoke mode, to recite , record and play back math tables • Quiz mode with various levels to test your knowledge With 3 different "Modes" of learning, students are able to see and hear math tables, recite, record and play back what they have learned, and reinforce the knowledge with a short quiz. This 3 tiered approach to learning has proven effective for early education. 1.Learn mode: • The multiplication table from 1-10 are displayed one line at a time • Clear audio voice recites the tables. • The user is free to read along; or even recite the equations right along. • Students can replay the table as many times as they need, to build the confidence. 2.Karaoke mode: • It allows the student to reinforce what they've just learned by reciting, recording and playing back the same multiplication tables from Learn mode. Above step is an essential one, because studies have shown that when people state things out loud, they're far more likely to remember them when it's time for the information to be recalled. 3.Quiz mode: • This mode contains three levels in it "Beginners", "Intermediate" and "Expert". • The rate of difficulty of questions depends upon the level selected. • This is a timed, multiple choice quiz that helps the user to see what they've learned. • At the end of the quiz, the user is taken to the scoreboard where they can see their score. The Karaoke and Quiz modes set Math Tables Karaoke apart from other multiplication learning aids, as this is currently the only one to offer both record/playback and touch features.

History of Astoria, OR
The Clatsop and Chinook Indians
lived in this area for thousands of years before the European explorers
ventured to cross into the mouth of the Columbia River. In 1792, Capt. Robert
Gray found the mouth of the River and sailed in with his ship. He named the
river after his ship, the Columbia Rediviva. In 1805, Meriwether Lewis and
William Clark led their expedition here and spent the winter at Fort Clatsop,
just south of Astoria, but they did not claim any land for the U.S. at that
Astoria was established in 1811 when the crew aboard John Jacob Astor's ship,
the Tonquin, staked the first U.S. claim to the west coast of the continent.
The party established a fur-trading outpost at the mouth of the Columbia and
Astoria became the first permanent U.S. settlement west of the Rocky Mountains.
The United States and England
went to war in 1812. In 1813, a British warship sailed into the Columbia River
to capture the post and take control of the fur trade. Astor's fur traders beat
them to it by selling the post to the British Northwest Company. From 1813 to
1818, the British owned Astoria, or Fort George as it was referred to at the
time. In 1818, a treaty with England established joint occupation of the Oregon
Country, as it was called then. The boundary was set at the 49th Parallel. The
British did not completely abandon Astoria until 1846.

This crowd-pleasing One-Pan chicken and gnocchi with garlic asiago cream sauce is perfect for an easy weeknight comfort meal. The Italian seasoned chicken is scrumptious here, but this is all about the creamy garlic Asiago sauce bathing the delicate gnocchi! Be prepared for big-time flavor!
Ingredients list for the Chicken And Gnocchi
- 6 thighs, bone-in, skin-on chicken
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 2 cups baby spinach, roughly chopped
- 17.6 oz (500g) gnocchi
- Chopped fresh parsley leaves
For The Garlic Asiago Cream Sauce
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup (240ml) chicken broth, or more, as needed
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cup (125ml) half and half
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Asiago cheese
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F(200°C) and oil a rimmed baking dish. Season chicken thighs with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
2. Cook gnocchi according to package directions. Drain in a colander and set aside.
3. In the mean time, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear chicken on both sides, starting skin-side down, until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side; drain and set aside.
4. Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in the same skillet. Stir in chopped spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Set spinach aside.
5. To make the garlic asiago cream sauce, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and Italian seasoning. Cook, whisking constantly, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in half and half and grated Asiago cheese until slightly thickened. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
6. Arrange chicken thighs into the prepared baking dish. Top with cooked gnocchi, spinach and Asiago cream sauce. Roast in the oven until completely cooked through, about 25-30 minutes. Serve hot, garnished with parsley. Enjoy!

A canticle for a time of persecution
Martyrdom today takes places not only through violence, but through mockery and irony - Pope John Paul said in his general audience yesterday. "We know that the persecutor does not always assume the violent and macabre countenance of the oppressor, but often is pleased to isolate the righteous with mockery and irony," the Pope told more than 10,000 pilgrims in the Pope Paul VI Hall. The Holy Father was reflecting on the canticle of the three young Israelites in the Book of Daniel who sang in the fiery furnace. "Despite the extreme danger, when the flames were already licking their bodies, they found the strength 'to praise, glorify and bless God,' certain that the Lord of the cosmos and history would not abandon them to death and nothingness," John Paul II said. He called this canticle, "a magnificent hymn in praise of God's transcendent glory." The Pope recalled that this is the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, "three young Jewish men, placed by the author in the historical context of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, the terrible Babylonian sovereign who annihilated the holy city of Jerusalem in 486 and banished the Israelites 'along the rivers of Babylon'." The canticle is similar to a torch that brings light to the darkness at the time of persecution and oppression, a time that has often been repeated in the history of Israel and the very history of Christianity." "Sung by the three young men condemned to the fiery furnace for their fidelity to the God of Israel," he said, "the Canticle evokes the holiness and power of the Creator, Who dwells among His people in Jerusalem. This prophetic celebration of God's closeness to His People prefigures the coming of the Son of God, Who in the fullness of time 'took flesh and dwelt among us'. In her liturgy the Church in every age takes up this song of gratitude for God's merciful love, which guides all history to its appointed end." John Paul II said that "in their blessing, the three young men praise the Lord all powerful, who is in heaven, but also the God who is close to His people, who wished to inhabit 'his holy temple of glory'." source: VIS

'Child porn has wrecked my life, I am so very sorry,' sobs Glitter
GARY Glitter dramatically broke down yesterday as he told a jury how viewing child porn wrecked his life and career.
Gary Glitter has apologised and said that his life has been ruined
The singer, who was jailed for possessing 4,000 indecent images of children, sobbed: "I am remorseful. I am so sorry."
Glitter called for an end to paedophile pornography as he declared: "It changed my life forever. I lost the honour of my family. I lost my own dignity."
The 70-year-old rocker wept as he apologised several times and said: "I am sorry to my family and fans. I am sorry every day of my life."
Crippled by debt, his career in the doldrums, missing his Cuban girlfriend, drinking heavily and taking drugs, he was in a "bad place" when he viewed the porn, he said.
Using his credit cards, he had subscribed to two Japanese web sites featuring obscene pictures of children including pre-pubescent girls, the court heard.
John Price, QC, prosecuting, said: "From time to time, many people have problems with their careers, loneliness or drink.
"They don't all reach for their laptops and download pictures of men having sex with children, do they?"
Glitter replied: "I accept that."
But he insisted he was viewing all types of pornography and "porn leads to porn".
He said he was more "curious" than "aroused" by the images.
My life has been completely destroyed. I paid for it. God knows I paid for it
During a two-and-a-half-hour appearance in court where he denies sex charges, Glitter made two revelations.
He said he had been abused as a child – but gave no details.
The singer also said his daughter was actually fathered by his former best friend during an affair with his wife while he was working in Germany.
"I believe to this day he is her father," he told London's Southwark Crown Court.
Charged under his real name Paul Gadd, Glitter denies attempting to rape an eight-year-old girl in 1975.
The singer, of Marylebone, central London, also denies sexually assaulting two other alleged victims aged 12 and 14 between 1977 and 1980.
Jurors were told Glitter pleaded guilty at Bristol Crown Court in 1999 to possessing indecent images.
He wept openly as he told of his problems at the time and how he missed his girlfriend in Cuba.
"I couldn't get her out. I still can't get her out. I got caught and I went to prison.
"I pleaded guilty and I accepted my responsibility.
"I was drinking heavily and I was taking drugs."
Glitter was emotional again as he said: "My life has been completely destroyed. I paid for it. God knows I paid for it."
Glitter admitted tricking fans into believing he was retiring in a bid to boost sales for his 1976 "farewell tour".
The bald singer had even told ITV's Russell Harty he was quitting to marry his hairdresser.
In his autobiography he described his TV performance as "worthy of an Oscar" leading Mr Price to tell him: "Mr Gadd, you are an accomplished liar."
The trial continues.

Liquor by the case is generally about 10 percent less expensive than by the bottle, and it generally disappears at least 10 percent faster, so you must gauge your own purse and proclivities.
``How to Cook a Wolf,``
M.F.K. Fisher
Whether it`s ``white wine, please,`` or the one-in-a-thousand request for a Rob Roy cocktail (Scotch, sweet vermouth and a dash of angostura bitters), most parties in America begin with a drink of something alcoholic. More often than not, liquid refreshment will flow from a party`s inception to its very end.

I've got a 2007 pontiac grand prix that I picked up off a guy for $900 and so far it's been a head ache. So far, I've had to replace the power steering pump, pump lining, there's a hole in the radiator, and now a mystery problem that me and my lack of car knowledge can't diagnose.
Smoke/steam (smells burned) is coming from behind the engine and when the wheels are turned, it sounds like a high pitched grinding noise. I checked the oil, its fine. I filled the radiator with water as a temporary fix until I can afford to get the radiator fixed or repaired. Air conditioning only works on max setting. Before the problem occurred, I was pouring water into the extra reservoir when my friend started the car. Maybe the radiator sucked up some air while I was filling the reservoir.
Once again, I am a very beginner car owner and half the things I don't know anything about. So please excuse my lack of vocabulary. Any help would be great. Thanks!
What is a "pump lining"? The high pitched grinding noise when the wheels are turned sounds like you're low on power steering fluid. The air working on max only (you mean the fan only running on max, right?) is likely the resistor block for the blower motor.
How much "smoke/steam" is coming from behind the engine? Does it only do this when you turn the wheels? If it's dripping, what color is it? Where exactly is it coming from?
Is there any fluid in the power steering reservoir?
No one sells a 2007 Grand Prix for $900 unless they know it's junk. Get rid of this car before you waste any more money. You could potentially spend thousands of dollars and still have nothing.
"Smoke/steam (smells burned) is coming from behind the engine and when the wheels are turned, it sounds like a high pitched grinding noise."
Are linings the hoses/lines to/from the power steering pump ? Could be that one or both are leaking fluid onto hot exhaust components and burning off.
It could be that a coolant line running to the heater core behind the engine is leaking and creating steam, for example.
How much has the vehicle been operated after the pump replacement ? Was it quiet at first and then noisy or noisy from the git-go ?
You will have air in the system after refilling with power steering fluid and it will be noisy. The steering has to be cycled a few times and the vehicle allowed to sit a half hour or so, making sure the fluid is up to "full" mark and the process possibly repeated a few times to get the foam and bubbles out of the system.
You shouldn't be running water in the car. Water boils at a lower temperature than coolant/antifreeze mix. You shouldn't be operating this vehicle until the source of the steam/smoke is found and fixed. It could totally damage the engine (if it's not already) and/or cause a fire or burn somebody.
My apologies, the power steering pump lining was replaced. It's actually a 1997, not a 2007. I only take the car on short trips since I can't afford to be filling the radiator with coolant every time I drive it. It's been 2 weeks since the pump replacement, I have no idea where I would find the power steering fluid reservoir, and I couldn't tell what color it was.

One of the purposes of this blog is to discuss revolutionary organization. This phrase, conception, and type of organization have become very unpopular amongst American radicals and progressives today. What was once seen as a viable alternative for hundreds of thousands of people has now become a flickering candle in the wind. Why is this the case? While this post will not go into the history of how this has happened, this post hopes to engage this question on the terms of how the Johnson-Forest Tendency rethought this question in light of the new political realities of the post-WWII era. They advanced new ways of thinking about organization, politics, and revolution, that can contribute much to new discussions today that are going on and need to continue. At the same time, their advance had some profound weaknesses as well which Goldner discusses. While these weaknesses are very real, it still leaves the question of what alternatives there are if the vanguard party is dead and at the same time Facing Reality's proposition of organization has failed as well.
I am posting two pieces by Loren Goldner. The first is a basic overview of the tendency. It will help contextualize the period they were in, provide a little autobiographical information on the authors, and in more broader terms explain what they were trying to do.
The second piece is Loren Goldner's re-reading of Facing Reality. Goldner is attempting to look at this work, which was a product of a unique moment in capitalism. I have broken down Loren Goldner's essay into key points with occasional commentary. Each of these points can be further explored in our discussion in the upcoming days.
Here are some introductory thoughts:
1. Facing Reality has workerist excesses at times. LG defines it as "The book focuses almost exclusively (with the exception of Hungary) on workers' struggles and power on the shop floor, and is therefore (rightly) open to the charge of workerism, an excessive point-of-production focus, with elements that seem at times almost syndicalist." This is one of the reasons why James could not explain why such powerful shop floor self-activity did not result in revolution and how the neo-liberal offensive broke its back.

America is angry at Hillary and democrats.
American mass media do not understand that.
And especially CNN, because they are trying to help Hillary, so look what happens when that anger will collide with CNN, it is funny!
According to Yes I'm Right:
One of the worst things the liberal media can do is start a live segment where they present their views in public.
Not only is it because they're bought and paid for by the Clinton campaign and her special interests, but for the fact that they look like absolute fools when the American public gets a hold of them.
Before and after the debate, CNN correspondents on a panel were talking about how Hillary Clinton will win the election, trying and failing to ignore the countless chants of lock her up behind them.
The crowd was overwhelming and you could see the presenters starting to panic, flub their lines, and stutter. This is good
It happened not once,
but twice,
Oh yeah. America has spoken. The liberal media is in panic mode and the Democrats are in damage control. I can't wait until November.
CNN is not going to save Hillary in on 8-th of November.
The she is going to get it what she really deserves!
If you agree, please share and comment below.

Submission to ban fur farming.
Please send in a submission asking to ban fur farms in Ireland before the 31/12/2011.
The Dept of Agriculture are currently looking for submissions. Send it into the email address or by post to Animal Health and Welfare (Ref: Fur Farming Submissions), Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, 4 Centre, Agriculture House, Kildare Street, Dublin 2.
The submission may be as basic as asking for a ban or as detailed as you wish.
Notice from the Dept of Agriculture:
"Fur Farming Review
The Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Simon Coveney TD, has established a Review Group in his Department to review all aspects of fur farming. The Terms of Reference are:
Fur Farming, Timeline.
ALiberation have compiled a series of incidents that has happened in relation to the proposed ban of fur farming since the current government has come into office. Each incident raises serious question marks about the intentions of the decision makers.
May 2011:
The current government stated in relation to the Animal Health and Welfare Bill that the "purpose of the bill" was "to consolidate and update existing legislation in the areas of animal health and welfare, including the repeal of several extant statutes, the responsibility for the welfare of all animals within the Department and to ban fur farmingâ€.
This statement is included at the "Bills in respect of which heads have been agreed and texts are being drafted†stage of the "Government Legislation Programme†This stage is also referred to as "Section B†[1].
June 2nd 2011:
Any questions about banning fur farms are now met with a vague statement about "fur farming is being examined in the context of the ongoing drafting of the Bill.â€
This becomes the standard response to any queries about fur farms "It is my intention to publish the Animal Health & Welfare Bill this year. However, as the Deputy will be aware the Bill is a complex one and will require extensive work in conjunction with the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel to complete the required legal drafting. Once a complete draft is available I intend to publish the Bill. The issue of fur farming is being examined in the context of the ongoing drafting of the Bill". [2].
Fur Farms, Press Release 20/12/2011.
U-Turn by Stealth?
Since the current government has taken office a series of incidents regarding the fur farm ban have occurred which the Ministers responsible have not explained despite requested to do so. Each incident casts a question mark over the intentions of this government.
Spokesperson for the group, Jim Walsh said "Looking at the trend of events, the only conclusion we can draw is that there is an attempt to block the ban of fur farming. Basic questions are not being answered by the Minister about what has happened since he has come to office. Why have these questions gone unanswered?â€
Jim Walsh further said "There is a trend of events that drives a wedge between the Fur Farming Ban and the Animal Health and Welfare Bill. First, the wording is dropped; Secondly Minister McEntee wants to give guarantees to the fur farmers in person; Thirdly, the incompatible dates of the submissions with the expected publication of the Bill; And Finally the lack of any answers about why all of these things have happened.
Is this government about to perform a U-Turn and try to block the fur farming ban by stealth?â€
He continued "Fur farming is a symptom of how we view other animals. Fur farming is a symptom of speciesism. Nobody needs to wear animal fur. The fur industry involves caging animals for their whole miserable existence until they are then killed for their skins.â€
Right now it's legal to have fur farms in Ireland. What that incorrectly suggests is that the people of Ireland think it's more important to have a fashion item than bother about the lives and pain of all these animals. But that's not what the public thinks. We expect that elected public representatives will represent the public in this matter. Fur farming is an animal rights violation, it is cruel and the majority of people want it to stop.

Everything You Desired to learn about Fine Art Photography
During the last few years, digital photography has completely transformed by any means levels. Among its various genres, one of the more underrated ones is fine art photography. Very few photographers pursue fine art photography, particularly because of the amount of intricacy involved with it. However, if youu2019re looking out to face a position in front of the crowd and pursue this style- here are a few quick tips that will surely allow you to.
What should you primarily center on?
When it comes to fine art photography, the very first thing you ought to really consider will be the vision of your artist. Prior to you capture the photograph in the fine art, you will have to have a proper vision as to what the final image may very well be like. The photograph you click should never only reflect your own personal vision, but also the vision in the artist.
Fine art can also be in regards to a specific idea, a message or perhaps an emotion. Like a photographer your snap needs to carry those elements that this artist would like to convey through his work. In order to do this, you will need to closely study the object and understand its intricacies and layered symbolism.
While observing the object, you could possibly realize that the idea or the message conveyed through it is relatively small. It could be a single and straightforward word like abandon. As well, it may also be an entire statement like delving to the methods the moon affects the tides. It really is even more of a start or a hypothesis. As being a photographer, your primary goal is always to convey that start or hypothesis in your snap. Your photograph should focus only on that specific element that the artist would like to unfold. Although you could add part of your inherent creative persona within the photograph- but regardless of what, you cant ever disregard the artistu2019s idea and overwhelm the viewer with your individual idea.
Another thing that a lot of fine art photographers should concentrate on is technique. The project you put together should demonstrate your vision regarding the subject. It will 11devzpky your ideas and yes it should also have a proper consistency on the entire thing. While photographing different units of fine art, you must ensure that the final photograph may have an effective similarity together with the previous ones. For this, you can make use of a similar medium and other camera technique for each object. Utilize the https://www.amazon.com/NB-2LH-Battery-ZR-850-Digital-Cameras/dp/B000BO3CW8 for better fine art photographs with uniform consistency.
What needs to be the body of employment?
Regardless of what facets you explore through inside the fine art photography, at the end of the morning, it should generally have a suitable body of work that demonstrates and provides a glimpse of your ideas and insights. It must reveal your techniques and magnificence that have been followed through the entire series. As soon as your image is set inside a gallery, it must use a proper amount of uniformity and consistency.
Well, after you follow these guidelines clicking fine art photos will probably be even simpler and simpler for you.
