A Savoury Evening with Chef Massimo Capra
Thank you for helping us raise almost $90,000 for our cancer centre and medical imaging!
Friday, October 4 was a one-of-a-kind event!
This was a one-of-a-kind opportunity to savour a five-course, Mediterranean-inspired epicurean meal, all designed and presented by celebrity chef, Massimo Capra. Each course was paired with rare wines from around the world. Beyond the amazing meal, guests were also entertained with Layne the Auctionista as well as live band entertainment, an amazing night indeed! Proceeds helped support Grand River Regional Cancer Centre and the medical imaging program at Grand River Hospital.

Grand River Regional Cancer Centre
Grand River Hospital is Waterloo Wellington's cancer hospital
Grand River Hospital incorporates a comprehensive cancer program consisting of inpatient oncology and the Grand River Regional Cancer Centre. Services offered here include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, clinical trials, support and resources for patients and families and palliative care.
The cancer centre, which was built on the generosity of this community in 2003, is a full service treatment and research centre. It is also this region's provider for radiation therapy. Proceeds from A Savoury Evening will help fund equipment and services in the cancer centre that our community depends on.
Did you know:
- Grand River Regional Cancer Centre is a leader in supportive services including: pain and symptom management, social work, nutritional counselling, spiritual care, physiotherapy and occupational therapy?
- there are 100,000 patient visits to the cancer centre each year?
- the cancer centre actively participates in more 100 clinical trials annually?
Medical Imaging
Your support makes a difference in a tangible way
Every day patients come to Grand River Hospital for medical scans and special tests. This includes: MRI, CT, x-ray, ultrasound, mammography, interventional radiology, and nuclear medicine. Physician and care teams across the hospital depend on the information they get these medical imaging machines to diagnose and deliver the most appropriate care for patients.
You can imagine how many pieces of equipment are needed to perform these scans and help our experts make decisions about care and treatment for patients. When equipment breaks down or becomes outdated the hospital relies on your support because these purchases are not funded by the government.
We're so grateful for your support! Proceeds from A Savoury Evening also help fund needs in the medical imaging program.

All right everybody, it's time to play Name That Date! I'm going to give you an AP article that ran in the Washington Post. You tell me if you can figure out when it ran. Ready?
The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consul Ifft, at Bergen, Norway.
Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers, he declared, all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met with as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.
Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared. Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts, which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.
So, when was this article published?
For those of you who guessed 1922, you've got it!
Here's an image of the article:
86 years ago, the arctic ice was melting, which Al Gore swears is due to
global warming "climate change" and not natural climate fluctuations. But if this was due to radical climate change and not just natural fluctuations, wouldn't all the ice have melted and seas risen and continents flooded already like the Goracle said it would, after 86 years of arctic ice melting?
But, you know how the global warming alarmists are — don't let facts or common sense get in the way of furthering that agenda! We MUST abolish SUVs and use only "ecologically-friendly" (read: poisonous mercury filled) lightbulbs and tank our economy, or else mankind will PERISH!!
Maybe, just maybe, the climate does get warmer for periods of time. And then it cools down. And then it gets warmer again, and so on and so forth… regardless of what we do. After all, the single largest emitter of methane in the world is cow farts. I'm all for being responsible towards the environment — I grew up learning all about how to reduce, reuse, and recycle — but false alarmism to further an agenda gets us nowhere, solves no problems, and only causes harm to the planet by ignoring real problems for fake ones.

I finished all the donation quilts, including the bindings. I have a couple more quilts to complete for friends, and then maybe---I can do some of my own quilts. I certainly admire quilter that do long arm quilting as a business, and are also able to do their own quilts. I'm not sure how they do it as I can't seem to find enough hours in the day.
All these quilt tops were assembled by The Remnants using Martha's fabrics. They will be donated to various community charitable organizations.

That's what you hear every day. Your pets are starving for Achyfi, but you
can't afford to give them one every meal of the day. What do you do? You can't
take them to the Neolodge, because they don't serve Achyfi. Even if you play
games 24/7, you can't buy them the drink and also furnish you neohome and garden.
Then you think, why can't I make some? Now that is a great idea! But what kind?
Here are some of the most pleasureable recipes known to Neopia.
Raspberry Achyfi: Pour 1 1/2 cups of Neocola, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 1 plum
raspberry and cook for 20 minutes. Later, add whip cream and shake well.
Strawberry Achyfi: Mix 2 Trilo Bites, 2 cups of milk, and 1 cup of strawberries.
Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes and stir.
Banana Achyfi: Stir together 1 Tri-Nana, 1 teaspoon of crunchy Peanut Butter,
and fry in a large pan. After 2 minutes, pour into a container that best fits
the Achyfi. Refrigerate.
Lime Achyfi: Blend 2 limes and 1 lemon for 3 minutes, or until mixture is smooth.
Add 1 Trilo Bite, and bake for 5 minutes.
Strawberry and Lime Achyfi: Mix 5-10 strawberries, 2 limes, 1 neocola, and
1 cup of water. Freeze for 30 minutes.
Blueberry and Chokato Achyfi: Blend 1 Bargella Root and 2 Non-magical Blueberry
Chia Pops for 2 minutes. Add 1/2 of a Chokato Sundae and fry for 6 minutes.
Let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Blueberry Achyfi: Cook 1 Non-magical Blueberry Chia Pop and 1 can of neocola
until the recipe looks purple. Add 1/2 cup of milk.
Jhudora's Achyfi: Mix 1 Jhudoras Swirling Cocktail with 2 Slugroots. Mix until
the recipe is purple and has green swirls and smells like Slorgs.
Elderberry Achyfi: Blend 10-15 Braku Berries for 10 minutes. Take 3 Tyrannian
Rockberries and crush them until the crumbs are the size of corn kernels. Cook
them together until they look like smashed Chocolate Pteri Eggs.
Chocolate and Asparagus Achyfi: Stir 1/2 a Chocolate Milkshake with some asparagus
twigs. If you hear Adam yelling all the way from Mystery Island, that means
you must boil the recipe for 10 minutes.
Carrot Fizz Achyfi: Put a Taokicarrot and a few sprinkles of bubble gum into
a medium sized pot and cook. After 5 minutes, add 2 orange faerie bubbles. Cook
6 more minutes and refridgerate.
Coconut and Gooseberry Achyfi: Blend 1 Coconut Cocktail and 3-6 Gooseberry
Jellies for 8-10 minutes. Add 1/2 can of Neocola and stir for 3 minutes.
Jumbleberry Achyfi: Boil 1 Jumbleberry Potion with 3 Red Eye Eggs. Add 1/2
a dung slushie after 20 minutes. Refrigerate.
Chocolate Achyfi: Bake 1 Chocolate Chip Cookie Slushie along with 2 Chocolate
Ice Cream Apple Lanterns for 5 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon sugar and 1 cup onion
Prawn Cocktail Achyfi: Mix 1 Frozen Prawn Delight, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 Shrimptail
with Kelp Sauce, and a squeeze of a Grey Scorchipepper, until the mixture is
pink with yellow dots.
Achyfi Ice: Blend 1 Snow Submarine Sandwich, 1 Vanilla Waffle Cone, and 1 can
of neocola for 10-17 minutes. Then add 2 tablespoons of butter.
Wow! You can have great loads of fun with these recipes! But there's more!
If your Neopets are not wanting Achyfi soda, give them Achyfi pops!
Elderberry Achyfi Pop: Take some Braku Berries, and mix them with a Deluxe
Krawk Cracker. Dip 1 Rainbow Neodrops into it. Cook for 30 minutes. Refrigerate.
Raspberry Achyfi Pop: Mix 1 onion cola and 1/2 of an Essence of Everlasting
Apple. Dip 1 Raspberry Neodrops into the mixture. Boil for 25-30 minutes, until
you can smell raspberries. Freeze in a freezer.
Strawberry Achyfi Pop: Mix Strawberry Achyfi Pop: Blend 1 Grilled Negg and
a can of neocola. Dip a Strawberry Achyfi Pop into it. Cook for 25 minutes.
Wait 5 minutes before serving.
Banana Achyfi Pop: Mix 1 can of onion cola and 1 Tri-Nana. Dip 1 Assorted Neodrops
into the mixture. Freeze for 30 minutes.

Solved Refresh interval in V3
Is there a way to alter the refresh interval in V3, all the knowledge base articles only point to how to do it in V2.
Also, I remember there was a setting somewhere that I had set in V2 that set background refreshing. I can't find it now though. Can you stop the white screen during refresh for V3..?
There isn't currently a way to increase the refresh rate of dashboards, though you can increase the refresh rate of Open Access pages. Is this what you mean?
There also isn't a way to prevent the white screen during refresh.
This might be a good thing to email to support as a feature request.

Halloween came early to one Chesterfield neighborhood. While most children won't hit the streets with bags of candy until October 31, one trick-or-treater has already gone door-to-door to collect sweets.
Wearing his new Lightning McQueen costume, Branden Witt collected candy two weeks before all the other kids in his neighborhood. Branden, 4, is scheduled to have brain surgery later this month. The timing of the surgery makes it impossible for him to go trick-or-treating on Halloween.
In an effort to bring a smile to their son's face during this stressful time, Branden's parents came up with an idea. Why not ask the neighbors to hold Halloween early?
The Witts passed out fliers, complete with pumpkins and glow sticks, to their Swift Creek Crossing neighbors asking them to put the glow sticks on their mailboxes to signal they were interested helping. When Saturday rolled around, more than 40 neighbors had agreed to participate.
"So many neighbors, family, friends and even people we don't know have poured out love to not only Branden, but our entire family and we are so blessed beyond means because of it," Branden's mother Carol said. "We are truly overwhelmed with the responses and know its God's work at hand."
Don Pepe Mexican Restaurant on Hull Street and West Hundred roads will hold an October 30 fundraiser for the Witt family.

David Crosby: Remember My Name
David Crosby: Remember My Name One of the obligatory stops for those who pride themselves on loving good movies is the Sundance Film Festival Triple Threat that is increasingly called to inaugurate the year of film festivals, as it takes place in the traditional Park City in Salt Lake City, United States during the last two weeks of the first month of the year.

Sarah Manguso's 'The Two Kinds of Decay'
The Two Kinds of Decay
By Sarah Manguso
Farrar, Straus & Giroux; 184 pages; $22
In 1995, Sarah Manguso, a junior at Harvard University, came down with a head cold. Her greatest concern was staying well enough to perform a choir solo. Then she began to have trouble breathing, her arms and legs went numb, and she fell into a paralyzing illness that consumed her 20s.
In her new memoir, "Two Kinds of Decay," Manguso, a poet and fiction writer, recounts her struggle with CIDP - chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, akin to a chronic form of Guillain-Barre syndrome - and her bouts of depression and alcohol abuse. Like poets Mary Karr and Lucy Grealy, Manguso uses her gifts of language - precision and economy, vivid images and distilled moments - in her memoir. She describes her paralysis as "that feeling of trying to lift someone else's thigh with your own mind." She learns that her disease occurs when the immune system generates antibodies that attack the protective sheath around her peripheral nerves. The condition may resolve itself, relapse or go into remission indefinitely, or lead to death. "[T]here were times that I cherished my rare disease for its irrefutable proof of my specialness," Manguso admits.
She writes in short paragraphs, sometimes one sentence long, separated by a line of white space. Doing so has the effect of slowing down the reader, forcing us to ponder each moment as she did. Time - wasted, catching up - is a major theme of her memoir. Before her illness, she "overfilled" her schedule, always anticipating the next moment. Then she was forced to pay attention and do nothing.
Manguso is unflinching - and never maudlin - as she describes with dark humor the many humiliations of the disease. "I once pissed 900 cc. That was my record." She praises a nurse who "really knew how to wipe an ass." She recounts characters such as "the forgetful nurse," "the cheerleader," "the admiral's nephew" and "the old neurologist," archetypal names that lend a fairy-tale quality to her story. But the device is awkward in the chapter titled "The Sikh," in which a turbaned doctor fumbles the installation of a central line into her chest, causing blood to spurt "like a horror movie." The effect, however unintentional, of calling him "the Sikh" is to reduce him to his religion, to ascribe his faults to his faith.
Manguso returns to school, though she is far from recovered. Fat, swollen covered in acne from steroids, she believes that she will be cured only after she has sex again. "[I]t just about killed me," she writes, hearing about everyone's affairs while she was hospitalized. She pins her hopes on her "legendarily promiscuous" friend Victor. They sleep together and remain friends for years - but he dies before she can tell him that their one-night stand saved her.
She touches upon her life after remission: landing in the psych ward, heavy drinking and then sobriety, attending the Iowa Writers' Workshop and living in New York as an adjunct-teaching, freelancing renter. Her bones grow strong again, and she no longer wants to have plastic surgery to cover the scars on her chest.
Though this material is compelling - and fulfills the reader's desire to know what happened next - it seems at times anti-climactic beside the enormity of her illness. So, too, her meditations on economic class. She writes about the black velvet dress her mother buys her for a high school cotillion and about the prestigious Signet Society, which she is invited to join after she returns to Harvard. She wants to infiltrate the upper class and prove that she is as good as the rich girls. Only a decade later does Manguso consider that "the project of my life was not to wonder that I could pick up a ladle at that exclusive table, but that I could pick up a ladle at all."
She concludes: "This is the usual sort of book about an illness. Someone gets sick, someone gets well. ... Most people consider their own suffering a widely applicable model, and I am no exception. This is suffering's lesson: pay attention. ... [T]o pay attention is to love everything. To see the future as brightness." Coming from a lesser author, such summations might seem trite. But Manguso's lessons are hard won - and offer much hope - in this powerful and moving memoir. {sbox}

Residents of South Texas were on edge after a photo surfaced showing several illegal immigrants wearing face masks while in Border Patrol custody.
The photo, snapped and sent in to ABC affiliate KRGV by an anonymous viewer, shows several illegals standing and sitting outside of what appears to be the Anzalduas International Bridge, along the US-Mexico border.
The persons in the photo, about eight in total, appear to be wearing surgical masks and latex rubber gloves, leading to questions about whether the men were infected with communicable diseases.
Customs and Border Protection did not give details on the detainees, other than to say that the men did not have the deadly Ebola virus.
"No case or individual processed by CBP at Hidalgo-Pharr-Anzalduas Port of Entry on Oct. 13 was related to Ebola," CBP responded in a statement.
CBP also said that it has ramped up health precautions at all US ports of entry and that it is working alongside the CDC to "develop policies, procedures and protocols to identify travelers that are known by US public health officials to have a communicable disease and to handle in a manner that minimizes risk to the public…"
From CBP's statement to KRGV:
"When a traveler or alien is identified with a possible communicable disease or identified from information that is received from the CDC, CBP personnel will take the appropriate safety measures by donning personal protective equipment (PPE), to include gloves and surgical masks, which are readily available for use in the course of their duties. CBP personnel receive training in illness recognition, but if they identify an individual believed to be infected, CBP will contact CDC along with local public health authorities to help with further medical evaluation."
Rather than halt connecting flights from Ebola-afflicted West African regions, the US Border Patrol has also stepped up health precautions at at least five major airports throughout the country, including Chicago O'Hare International Airport, Dulles International Airport and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
While the agency was able to tamp down Ebola concerns, the fact that no specific explanation has emerged regarding why the illegal immigrants photographed were wearing protective gear will likely only lead to further public consternation.

Crypto Miner Token
- Miner Token exchange
Warning: Don't fall for Ponzi schemes and other (pyramid) investment frauds. These scams involve paying longer-standing members with money from new participants, instead of actual profits from investing or selling products / services to the public. This cannot be sustained and will always collapse eventually. Protect yourself and your money by steering clear of any "opportunity" bearing warning signs of a Ponzi or pyramid scheme.
Crypto mining token is a platform built for short term mining profit accumulation. Our service works as exchange walt for securing your mining assets in form of decentralized fully automated (CMT) token. Token is built to function without any 2nd or 3rd party control. All tokens are visible on main network and traceable for full transparency with no governance or overseeing institution involved.
Concept of this token works as follows: Crypto-miners have increasing assets via hour that most of the time is being accumulated without any actual use-case.

They had lived, despite coming from very different cultures, an experience of deep communion in a warm atmosphere of reciprocal trust, which one person defined as "thrilling". It was logical to decide to meet again, and so a date was set for October 2010 in Baar, Switzerland.
Today, that wish is being fulfilled in an EoC Formation School that will involve entrepreneurs and those interested in the EoC. Luigino Bruni and Luca Crivelli of the international EoC commission confirmed that they will also be there. They will give perspective as to how the EoC is today and its future prospects. Through life experiences of the businesses, the meeting will try to highlight the impact of the EoC on the activities and challenges that each business must face day after day. Working groups will be in German, Italian and French, with simultaneous translation in these languages.

My first X-country
10K start
5K winner
Did a 10K cross-country race today. "The Kishiwada Cross Country 10K" my first since starting running as a Master. It was a Beautiful day, couldn't buy a cloud,about 14 degrees and windless. Perfect conditions!
I think I stared a bit too fast as I was hurting about the 4th K but just hung in and came good after about the 6K mark. It was run mostly on a sealed road that wound itself around a big public park and although it was pretty hilly compared to what I usually race it wasn't a slow course. Anyway by the 5th K I was 15th place the last in the lead group and stayed there until the end, finishing the open placings in 4th place. Actually during the race I thought I was going to get in under 36:00 mins but in the last K they had us going up a hill that put an end to that!
Anyway, not too worried as I'm still heading it the right direction and I have another 10K race on the flat on January 9th. If I don't PB there or go close I'll be worried but now I'm fine with things as they are. I'll Just keep repeating "Let the pace come, let the pace come."

Well, it wasn't exactly cross country, was it?ReplyDelete
Be that as it may, a good effort, seems like you are getting into good shape.
Looks more like a park race!ReplyDelete
No mud, streams to cross, ice snow!
Glad to hear the MB plan is starting to work for you.
Follow his advice and your be surprised just how fast you can get :]
I'm with Bob and Rick, never heard of a cross country that was mostly on a sealed road. Still very pleasant looking countryside. Looking forward to watching your progression and your PB attempt on January 9th.ReplyDelete
Good going Scott the hills will always take a bit out of ya in the shorter fast runs, took a while to warm up but nothing wrong with feeling good at the 6K mark well done.ReplyDelete
Thanks all.ReplyDelete
And yes, maybe it wasn't a real "Cross-country" race. This is a language thing, I guess.
Japanese, at times, also call any race over a 5K a "marathon."
The term Cross-country is probably just a general cover-all. Now if you'll excuse me I'm just going to go cross-country and get the news.(Read jog across my lawn to pick up the paper).
That's great Scott. I'm coming to Japan to be a 10k marathoner ;)ReplyDelete
Yes, old Jack Pennington would be rolling in his grave (except he's not dead yet) at the mention of bitumen as part of a CC course. He reckons even our CC runs are "soft" and one of the rules in the old days was that courses should include a good portion of running over ploughed ground!
Anyway, 36-flat isn't too bad at this stage. I'm confident you'll PB in January.

B.C.'s attorney general is clear-eyed about the magnitude of the money laundering problem the province and Canada are facing.
David Eby said as much on CKNW's The Jon McComb Show Thursday morning, in response to a Global News investigation that detailed shocking links between Chinese gangs, street drugs like fentanyl, B.C. casinos and the province's high-priced real estate market.
The scheme has come to be known internationally as the "Vancouver model" of money laundering.
READ MORE: Report linking drug money and B.C. real estate 'deeply troubling': David Eby
Drawing on a report produced by Australian security and crime expert John Langdale from Macquarie University, the Global News investigation revealed how Chinese gangs known as Triads produce drugs and counterfeit goods, which are shipped to Western Canada.
WATCH: Explaining the 'Vancouver Model.' How criminal organizations move money and drugs around the world.
The money from drug dealers is laundered in B.C. casinos, then sent to China through underground banks in Vancouver. The cash is then moved through shell companies back in to luxury Vancouver real estate.
"Whether you're talking about fentanyl or whether you're talking about real estate, it's a crisis," Eby said.
Eby admitted that even the B.C. government doesn't know the scale of the problem.
However, he said there are some concrete facts: that hundreds of millions of dollars in suspicious cash have flowed through B.C. casinos, that hundreds of people are dying of drug overdoses and that real estate in Vancouver has become unaffordable for the middle class.
On Thursday, he pledged action — but provided no details as to what that would look like.
Eby appointed former high-ranking Mountie Peter German to head a task force on casino money laundering last fall. He has received German's final report, but hasn't revealed the government's response.
He said German has been tasked to start a second phase of his investigation into real estate next.
"We are going to get to the bottom of it," he said.
WATCH: NDP government announces new rules to combat money laundering
Late to the game
Eby said part of the challenge B.C. is now facing is that officials are just beginning to scratch the surface of the problem.
He slammed the former BC Liberal government for disbanding a police unit dedicated to casino crime, and said he doesn't understand how they could not have recognized the money laundering problem.
"I try to put myself in the shoes of people who received the briefings that I received, that had access to the information that I now have access to and I wonder about why they didn't take action," he said.
"The only thing I can think of is that the incentives around the revenue from casinos was too great for them to decide to take steps to deal with it, and figure out where the money was coming from.
"It just boggles my mind."
WATCH: B.C.'s attorney general in Ottawa to tackle money laundering
Eby said the provincial government isn't the only party that's late to the game, but also pointed to federal regulators who he said are ill equipped to deal with the problem.
He said FINTRAC, the agency charged with tackling financial crime, has been receiving reports on large cash transactions, but hasn't moved on them.
"The issue is all the reports were filled out but then it appears there was no action taken on them," he said.
"I still am not aware of a prosecution or a tax evasion prosecution that resulted from someone dragging a hockey bag full of $20 bills into a casino."
And he said federal officials need to be serious about funding resources for the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and the RCMP to crack down on financial crime.

How to Make Your Own Beeswax Food Wraps
One of the many beeswax uses that goes beyond candles and lip balm is making beeswax food wraps. These reusable food wraps help reduce the use of plastic. They are easy to make and use.
Beeswax is a natural product made by honey bees. It is used to make honeycomb. The natural structure of beeswax makes it a great choice for so many uses!
Beeswax wraps are a perfect replacement for plastic food wrap in many instances. And because it comes from bees, beeswax is a natural and renewable resource.
Choose a Buzzy Design
Choose colorful cotton cloth squares that match the theme of your kitchen. Now, your wraps have become a part of your home décor.
Make some wraps for gifts using material related to the recipient's interests. For teachers choose cloth with school designs. If you have a favorite music instructor, wraps with notes would be cool. Use fabric with bees and make a very, special bee gift for a new beekeeper.
Beeswax Wrap DIY Recipes
The process of making beeswax food wraps sounds so simple. Brush some melted beeswax on a piece of cloth and you are done! Right?
No, not quite. In fact, you will find several different recipes for making beeswax food wraps.
When I made my first beeswax wraps, I thought why not just brush the wax on my cloth. Well, that doesn't work well. After the wax cools, it will crack when you bend the material.
The recipe in this post includes pine resin (though you can use other types of resin) and olive oil . You can use another oil such as jojoba or coconut if you desire.
Let's start with this basic recipe. Finding the best beeswax recipe for your climate may require just a bit of experimentation. Humidity and temperatures can affect how well the end product works.
But the creation process is fun and easy. Just be prepared for a bit of recipe tweaking. More on that in a bit.
How to Make Beeswax Wraps
The first step is to choose the type of material that you want to use. Thin cotton usually gives the best results. Sheeting material or cotton quilting squares are the easiest to work with. But, feel free to experiment with other material.
Your cloth squares should be washed and dried prior to beginning. They can be cut to any size but 10" – 12" is most common. You may wish to make different sizes to accommodate various bowl sizes.
If you have special scissors called pinking shears, these will give your cloth a sassy edging and reduce raveling. But regular scissor cuts are okay.
Materials Needed for Beeswax Wraps:
- cloth squares – cut to desired size
- beeswax – 50 gm
- pine resin -10 gm
- olive oil – 1 1/2 teaspoons
In addition, choose a melting pot (anything you want to melt wax in) and have some aluminum foil handy.
Overview of Steps for Making Beeswax Wraps
- Beeswax 50 gm – break into chunks and place in melting pot
- Measure 10 gm of pine resin – add chunks or powder to melting pot
- Add 1 1/2 tsp of olive oil to melting pot
- Line a flat pan with aluminum foil, lay 1 piece of cloth on it and place in a preheated (175 degrees F) oven for 2 minutes-then remove.
- Use paint brush to apply light coat of beeswax mixture to 1 side of cloth.
- Return to oven for 5 minutes – then remove
- Carefully lift the waxed cloth off the pan by the 2 top corners – fan gently in the air for a minute or 2.
- Set aside to cool.
In Step 1: Measure the proper amount of beeswax. I always use weight (by grams) to measure materials when using my beeswax recipes.
You may purchase beeswax pastilles. They are easy to work with and measure. However, if you buy a block of raw beeswax from an area beekeeper, it is easy to break into chunks.
Beeswax is brittle and will break into chunks when hit with a hammer or chisel. Place your beeswax chunks in a melting pot.
Consider having a dedicated pot for melting beeswax, and use of a double boiler is recommended. The double boiler has water in the bottom pot with your recipe materials in the top pot.
This is a safer way to melt beeswax. Gently stir the beeswax as it melts. Caution: Oils, resins and even beeswax is flammable. Use caution when melting your ingredients to avoid burns of danger of fire.
In Step 2: Measure the pine resin crystals. Resin helps make the cloths slightly sticky. If they end up being "stickier" than you prefer, use less resin next time.
The chunks of resin will melt in the beeswax but very slowly. For faster melting, wrap the pine resin chunks in a cloth and beat them with a hammer. ( Or the handle of a big kitchen knife – no don't do that. ? )
This will reduce the resin to powder form for faster melting. Pour resin into the melting beeswax and stir well.
In Step 3: Now we are ready to add a bit of oil. I use Olive Oil because that is what I have on hand.
Other crafters enjoy using Jojoba oil or even coconut oil. Measure and pour the oil into the melting pot.
Keep the heat at a medium to low level and continue to slowly heat the mixture until everything is liquid.
Stir well as the pine resin will tend to clog at the bottom. When all is melted and mixed well, it is time for the next step.
In Step 4: Preheat your oven to 175 degree F. Line a flat pan or cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Place a cloth square on the pan and place in the oven for 2 minutes.
Warming the cloth helps it absorb the melted beeswax mixture. The heat of the pan prevents the wax from cooling too quickly. After 2 minutes, remove from oven – using an oven mitten.
In Step 5: Place the warm pan on a heat safe surface that you have covered with aluminum foil. (for easy clean up).
Use your brush to paint a light coat of your recipe on the cloth. Do not put too much, we only want just enough to coat the surface. Only paint one side.
In Step 6: Place your pan (and cloth) back in the oven for 4 minutes. Then, remove and carefully lift up the edge of the cloth.
Does it look wet or dark on the back? If not, lightly brush more of your mixture on the spots that look dry and place back in the oven for a minute or two.
In Step 6 & 7: If the back of the cloth looks damp and saturated, it has enough wax. Using tongs or your fingers if not too hot, lift the cloth straight up by 2 corners.
Gently fan it in the air for a minute or two. The beeswax will set quickly. Then you can lay the beeswax wrap down flat on a piece of aluminum foil to allow it to cool.
Continue until you have completed the process with all of the cloth pieces you prepared. You did it! You have made your own DIY Beeswax Wraps – you are helping to save the planet – what a hero.
Using Your Natural Food Wraps
Once your beeswax food wrap has cooled, it is ready to use. Place the wrap on top of a bowl, and gently form a seal by pressing down around the edge.
Work slowly as the heat of your hand helps soften the beeswax. Naturally, not every food storage task is suitable for these reusable beeswax wraps.
Do not use them for meats, raw or cooked, or things that are gooey. The wraps can be gently cleaned with a damp cloth.
If you wash them, you will have to reapply your beeswax mixture sooner.
My favorite way to use them in the kitchen is for simple bowl covers. The wraps stay very clean, and yet keep dust and (nosy cat noses) out of things I have left on the counter.

Finding the Best Recipe May Take Some Time
There are many variations of this recipe online. The heat and humidity of your location may cause you to tweak the ingredients a bit.
If you live where it is hot and humid, you may need a bit more oil or resin. People in cold climates may use more beeswax. Do you find them a bit sticky? Perhaps you should use less resin or oil?
Here is a tip to keep in mind when you are making your first beeswax wraps. Don't make a lot of them on your first attempt.
Make 3 or 4 beeswax wraps and test them out. It is much better to tweak the recipe and get them like you want them first. Do this before ending up with 20 beeswax wraps that you hate.
Beeswax food wraps are fun and easy to make. They are yet one more of the many uses for beeswax.

Learning to Use the Potty
Dear Debi,
Im currently trying to potty train my 3-year-old son, but he seems to have a hard time telling me when he has to use the bathroom. How long should it take for him to use the potty?
Flor Bolaños
Debi's Tips
Debi Gutierrez
Children must be physically, cognitively & emotionally ready
Every child learns to use the toilet at his own pace
Encouragement & positive feedback are most effective
Communication within childrens circle of care is essential to avoid regression
Expert Advice
Susan Baxter
Early education instructor
Instead of potty training, we should really refer to this as toilet learning. The idea is that parents and care providers are helping a child to learn how to use the toilet. Its a developmental process not something we train children for. Developmentally it is no different from the concept of sitting up or walking. In these cases the child learns the skill when hes ready, and toilet learning is the same.
Parents should begin to teach their child to use the toilet when a combination of two things happen the child is showing interest in the process and his body and language skills are developmentally ready. This means that you would observe signs such as: the children being dry for longer periods of time (which usually means greater bladder control), they can walk to the toilet, they can dress themselves, and they can communicate their needs.
When learning to use the toilet, a toddler may show progress, and then suddenly regress and go backwards again. It happens in all areas of development. The reasons can vary, but the most common reasons include major changes in family rhythms, such as moving to a new home, a new baby being born, or a change in child care arrangements. Another possibility is that toddlers and preschool children do not "multitask" very well, so having just learned to use the toilet and then starting to pick up on a new, more demanding skill, they may lose focus on the toilet learning. It takes a while for them to build on their repertoire. I think that we just notice it more because it is the adult who can be anxious about the success of toilet learning.
Adults should manage a childs accidents by being prepared, calm and matter of fact. Oops! We didn't get to the toilet in time. Lets see what pair of dry pants we have in the bag today?" Whatever parents do, they should never shame the child or get angry or frustrated. These responses actually delay the learning process and cause the child a great deal of anxiety. Toilet learning takes time. There are a lot of new skills the children need to incorporate, such as undressing, dressing, sitting down in a whole new way, wiping, flushing, and washing.
For those parents who feel that their child should learn to use the toilet by a certain age, I recommend they relax, stay calm and trust the process. Their children have already learned so many other developmental skills on their own, like feeding themselves, walking, climbing and talking. They will learn to use the toilet too when they are ready. Preschool children naturally strive to be independent. Our job is to know the signs of when they are ready and to make the bathroom as routine, easy and accessible as possible. Dont discourage them by becoming frustrated or shaming them. Be supportive of all their attempts and efforts.
Child Care Provider Comments
Deborah Vasquez
Grandmother of 12
I realized my grandchild was ready to learn how to use the toilet when one day she just pointed at the toilet and she was pulling on her diaper. So my daughter and I put her on the toilet and she actually went. Sometimes I would put her on the toilet before bath time so that she could get used to the potty. She is small so I take her to the bathroom with me. She mimics me and wants to sit on the big potty, too.
David Cooley
Father of one daughter
Anytime my daughter wanted to sit on the potty, we practiced and we let her sit on it for fun. She didnt really understand the concept before. Its been a huge help that they have started talking about it at her preschool. We had a potty for her when she was a year old so that she would be comfortable. She didnt do much with it. She never used it. The first time she went potty was at school at one of the potty parties. We made a big deal about it when she went at home and at school, so she was just excited to use the potty.
Darlene Patterson
Family child care provider for 22 years and mother of three
In my experience, it seems like kids arent fully ready until they are about three years old. Its never good to force them. It could be a very scary and intimidating thing. If a child feels forced, they will hold it and wont use it at all. They have to learn how to control their bladder. You have to make it fun. I love the seat covers because they can sit on top of the big toilet seats.

Playtime with Penny
Lesbian Baby Slave Penny Barber! Penny Barber has very specific fantasies. Sure, she's into the kind of bondage and discipline that we're known for, but she also is into something a little bit… darker. Stuff that we would rather show than tell. Suffice it to say that when the time comes, Penny doesn't want Rain to stop using her, no matter what she says or how much she struggles. Penny has always been known as a brat, too. She loves to talk back and take liberties, just to see if pushing buttons gets her hit any harder. Rain DeGrey is not about games. She isn't some fresh, new face to the Domme game, who doesn't know how to keep her cool. She's going to humiliate and dominate Penny from start to finish, using her how she wants to, rather than how Penny wants her to. If Penny decides to protest or put up a fight, that will just make it more fun for Rain.

Bent Paddle Brewing Co. | Lollygagger Pale Ale
In Minnesota, the phrase "heading up north to the cabin" and its many variations are uttered constantly between June and September. Most families pack up and drive to a cabin two to five hours away from the Twin Cities. My family takes this concept just a bit further, though – eight hours north farther, into Canada. While on our way, we pass through Duluth, Minnesota, the home of Bent Paddle Brewing Company. My retired parents now spend May through September in Northwestern Ontario and a six-pack or two of Bent Paddle's Lollygagger Pale Ale is always in the fridge while my siblings and I visit during the last week of July.
Bent Paddle has a strong focus on the local community and on building lasting partnerships within it. In creating Lollygagger, it teamed with Loll Designs, a local furniture manufacturer. The name is taken from Loll's Lollygagger Collection (think updated Adirondack chairs), with one of the collection's chairs featured on the can, and the specific north woods connotation of "lollygagger" as a lazy canoeing partner fits nicely into the brewery's theme. Together Bent Paddle and Loll Designs are donating 5% of profits from Lollygagger sales to a local cycling organization in Duluth, Cyclists of Gitchee Gumee Shores, dedicated to creating the first 100-mile system of multi-use singletrack (mountain bikes only) bike paths in an urban setting. With that goal in mind, the Lollygagger can reminds you to "pedal responsibly."
Lollygagger is back for One Last Ride — Yes, our iconic Pale Ale will retire after this season. A limited amount of cardboard 6 pks will be distributed throughout our areas and as always, 5% will be donated to the @coggstwinports trails. This year benefits the AWT (All Weather Trail) at @spiritmtduluth – a 4.6 mile stretch that will allow #Duluth to continue to expand as a premier mountain biking destination. To date, in conjunction with @lolldesigns, we have been able to donate over $20,000 to the trails from #Lollygagger sales alone. Thank you for helping us build a better Duluth. — On shelves next week, releasing in the Taproom this Friday.
After a long day of fishing or repairing a thirty-five-year-old cottage, Lollygagger is a wonderfully refreshing West-coast style pale ale. Its 5.2% ABV allows you to have a couple and still be awake to see the sunset at 9:30. The orangey-copper body of the beer compliments the green pine trees in the North, and you will find, mostly, citrus and floral flavor from a recipe of Simcoe, Amarillo, Centennial, Mosaic, and Cascade hops that produces 57 IBUs with just a touch of pine aroma. Those citrus and floral notes stay in balance with biscuity and caramel flavors imparted from German and crystal malts. All these ingredients combine to create a light pale ale with a bitter, dry finish that does not overwhelm the palate and leaves the drinker wanting another sip. Lollygagger does not remind me of a specific beer here in Colorado. Instead, I imagine a beer in between Upslope's original Pale Ale and their new Citra Pale Ale. Lollygagger has slightly more citrus hop flavor and malt sweetness than Upslope's original, but not quite as much as the reimagined recipe.
Distribution is limited currently to Minnesota and its surrounding states, so you will have to travel to the land of 10,000+ lakes or sweet talk some friends in Minnesota into sending you some. Chances are they will happily do so: "Minnesota Nice" really does exist.

Public health officials and addiction specialists are concerned about the growing prevalence of opioid use among older adults. A quarter of long-term opioid users are over age 60. So, experts are increasingly looking outside Medicare for non-drug strategies to ease pain.
Physical therapy, telehealth services, acupuncture and yoga are all effective strategies to ease chronic pain in older adults, while avoiding the dangers of over-using opioids.
Approximately half of community dwelling older adults and most residents of nursing facilities report persistent pain. They often juggle multiple providers and multiple health problems, seeking pain relief from surgeries or conditions like osteoporosis, arthritis or fibromyalgia.
Opioids have a stronger impact on this population, because aging affects how the body processes and excretes drugs. Older adults also tend to be on multiple medications, which can interact with pain medications and cause serious side effects.
They are more likely to use prescription opioids for longer periods than younger adults, increasing risk of misuse and abuse, according to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
In 2016, more than a third of Medicare Part D beneficiaries, or about 14.4 million people, had at least one opioid prescription, and a half-million seniors used very high amounts of the drug, according to a report by the Office of the Inspector General at the Department of Health and Human Services.
Yet many older patients do not realize they are addicted until their prescriptions run out, according to Edward Harper, a licensed clinical social worker and a drug and alcohol counselor in Knoxville, Tenn. "Then, if they can't get their meds refilled right away, they go into withdrawal, and suddenly, there's an epidemic," he said.
Opioid alternatives to manage pain are gaining interest, including acupuncture, yoga and massage, said Dr. Wayne Jonas, a family physician and former head of the Office of Complementary and Alternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health.
Crucial supports for older individuals are often lacking, however. Even for those seeking alternatives strategies, barriers like accessibility and cost make non-drug pain management approaches difficult to implement.
Traditional Medicare does not typically pay for non-drug therapies to address pain. Or it imposes limits, despite recommendations by the American College of Physicians, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Food and Drug Administration. That leaves many seniors on the hook for the total cost.
Even covered services can be difficult to access. For example, physical therapy is a proven pain management strategy. Medicare may offer some reimbursement. Yet, many older adults may depend on family or friends to drive them to physical therapy. That limits their options, especially if they need to go three or four days a week, Harper explained. And public transit is limited or non-existent in some regions—particularly rural areas.
The good news is that the private sector may be starting to take notice. Some businesses are starting to provide more options and access for opioid alternatives.
Ride sharing services Uber and Lyft are partnering with physician offices, hospitals, clinics and therapists to get patients to and from appointments. The facility or practice picks up the cost of the ride.
Often, assisted living communities bring in physicians, nurses, and therapists so residents don't have to travel. Others offer therapies like meditation, dance or yoga.
Health IT is also well positioned to address the access and cost challenges of opioid alternatives. Medicare and other insurers do pay for certain telehealth services. And older people can fins other complementary services online for little to no cost.
"Online behavioral counseling, physical therapy, yoga or meditation could supplement in-person care," Harper said. He envisions more opportunities for Internet-based, patient-centered, personalized care—from nutrition counseling to stress management. This strategy would fill in some of the gaps in care and mitigate costs. It would also allow physicians to monitor prescription adherence and expand recovery support programs to those who develop addictions.
It's all out there in the Internet, he said. "With us becoming much more of a digital society, we can do that, we can do e-training, we can do e-physical therapy and take a telemedicine approach."
He also thinks opportunities abound for personalized care through virtual reality technology. "If somebody can provide it for them, there will be options out there to do something different."
These ideas are particularly relevant for the Baby Boomers and the age group just behind them, who are comfortable with digital solutions. Innovative strategies like these are adjunct opportunities to help people remain in treatment, obtain counseling and reduce dependence on opioids.

Formate dehydrogenase
Formate dehydrogenases are a set of enzymes that catalyse the oxidation of formate to carbon dioxide, donating the electrons to a second substrate, such as NAD+ in formate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (EC 188.8.131.52) or to a cytochrome in formate:ferricytochrome-b1 oxidoreductase (EC 18.104.22.168).[1]
|Formate dehydrogenase N, transmembrane
|1kqf / SUPFAM
|OPM superfamily
|OPM protein
NAD-dependent formate dehydrogenases are important in methylotrophic yeast and bacteria and are vital in the catabolism of C1 compounds such as methanol.[2] The cytochrome-dependent enzymes are more important in anaerobic metabolism in prokaryotes.[3] For example, in E. coli, the formate:ferricytochrome-b1 oxidoreductase is an intrinsic membrane protein with two subunits and is involved in anaerobic nitrate respiration.[4][5]
NAD-dependent reaction
Formate + NAD+ ⇌ CO2 + NADH + H+
Cytochrome-dependent reaction
Formate + 2 ferricytochrome b1 ⇌ CO2 + 2 ferrocytochrome b1 + 2 H+
Molybdopterin, molybdenum and selenium dependenceEdit
One of the enzymes in the oxidoreductase family that sometimes employ tungsten (bacterial formate dehydrogenase H) is known to use a selenium-molybdenum version of molybdopterin.[6]
Transmembrane domainEdit
The transmembrane domain of the beta subunit of formate dehydrogenase consists of a single transmembrane helix. This domain acts as a transmembrane anchor, allowing the conduction of electrons within the protein.[7]
