Armenian Names: From Ara to Zabelle
A few years ago I met a couple named Anoush and Harout, (who, predictably, had a last name ending in ian, the Armenian patronymic meaning 'son of") and was immediately intrigued by the rich sounds of their names. That, plus the lingering memory of the characters in William Saroyan's My Name is Aram–Arak, Dikran, Jorgi, Garro–piqued my interest in Armenian names. It's an ethnicity that has made few inroads into mainstream American nomenclature, but, while most of these names are destined to remain confined to the Armenian community, there are definitely some candidates eligible for wider circulation.
Many of these names date back to antiquity, some coming from the Bible (eg. Sahak for Isaac) or relating to nature (Shoushan, meaning lily), and there are a number that are close cousins to more familiar appellations, such as Hanna, Rouben, Ester, Yulia–variations with their own distinctive charm. (And note that since Armenia does not use the Latin alphabet but has a 36-letter alphabet of its own, transliterations bring about wide variations in spellings.)
Here, some of the most appealing Armenian choices:
ANOUSH (means sweet)
PEROUZE (means turquoise)

A friend of mine's husband comes from an Armenian background. When they had a baby, they gave him a very popular, common first name to counter-balance the complexity of their last name, but used the family name 'Hratch' in the middle spot.

I was so excited to see this because I'm Armenian!
Ani is SO popular in the Armenian community. I know so many. Taline is also popular, but not as popular as Ani. It's also spelled Taleen often. Lucine is popular among older people too.
Ara, Aram, and Armen are also VERY popular in the Armenian community. Raffi and Haig are also more popular among older people.
The only name I can picture becoming popular outside of the Armenian community is Zabel, as a susbstitute for Isabelle. I think Zori could be come popular too. It sounds light and happy. It could even be used for a girl. I see Dmitri as more of a Russian name, and I can also see that being used.

I really love a few of these. I've been a big fan of Anoush for ages – it's great fun to say.
From the list, I also really like Araxie, Nika and Silva. Levon, Zori, Zako and Raffi are my faves for boys.
Zabelle is lovely – is it pronounced za-BELL or ZA-bell? Anyone know?

It's ZA-bell. My husband is Armenian and his mother turned me on to this name. I LOVE it.
His name is Zareh. I think it's sexy.

I'm good friends with an Armenian family of several kids. The boys all have common biblical names (either in or around the top 10) but the girl has a gorgeous Armenian name not on the list- Sarine, pronounced with a rolled R. It means "from the mountains".

I am Canadian, my husband is Armenian & I am really trying hard to find traditional Armenian names I like. One: I need to be able to pronounce it (easy to pronounce for child's sake too, when s/he goes to school). Two: I really want it to be a pretty name to hear, not only in Armenian, but English. So far I've found only 2 boys & 2 girls names. Boys: Ari (I believe it means brave) & Sevan which is said to be unisex (name of a lake in Armenia). Girls: Siran ("lovely" in Armenian) & Zabelle. My husband is not fond of any 🙁 I'm desperate, please help.

Yey! Glad to find this site. My name is Zobel and I like it to be pronounced as Zu-bel instead of Zoe-Bell. Some people get confused and call me Isobel, but I don't mind better than Zoe-Bell hehe!!
Gender: F
Origin of Isabel: Spanish variation of ELIZABETH, "pledged to God"
I'm very pleased about that!!!

I have really gotten into Armenian names lately. I am armenian and named after my grandmother, Tamara. It is an alternate form of the Armenian name Tamar. I grew up not liking it that much but have recently come to really appreciate it. The name actually has a cool story:
According to the Armenian legend, an Armenian princess named Tamar lived on an island and was in love with a commoner. Every night she would hold out a light for her love to swim across and reach the island. When her father found out he was upset, so he smashed her lantern. That night her love didnt see a light, and so he didnt know where to swim to. He drowned 🙁 According to legend, his last words were "Akh Tamar" (Oh Tamar)
The island was named Akhtamar after this legend
pretty sad but a cool story nonetheless 🙂

Oh…I feel like I am commenting a bit late….however…My daughter is Zabelle Nina 🙂 Queen Zabel I of Armenia was a queen of Cilicilian Armenia from 1219-1252; there is also a book about a woman who survived the Armenian Genocide, "Zabelle" by Nancy Kricorian. I wanted to give my daughter a name that was distinctly Armenian…and it was also my Godmother/Aunties name…and I love it. I have gotten many compliments on her name…and we call her Zabellina as a nn. My son is Murad Zak and I am looking for a distinctly Armenian name that will match the two…

Trying hand at Sindhi delicacies
Western India includes Rajasthan, Gujarat and Maharashtra. While I've had some amazing food from Maharashtra, I'm not too big a fan of Rajasthani food (mainly because it's too hot). However one region I find that has an amalgamation of lots of cultures is Gujarat. Here one can find hot, spicy, sweet, sour and even bitter tasting food eaten with relish.
I grew up in Kutch, Gujarat where cultures blend together beautifully. Kutch boasts of population that mainly consists of Sindhis (people who came to Kutch as refugees from Sindh region), Kutchis and Gujaratis among others. As a consequence, Sindhi food made its presence felt in my early days. I remember these aunties in the neighbourhood who used to cook mouth-watering food. They'd always bring some to cute little me. 🙂
Here are two recipes I decided to try my hand at yesterday. While the first is a healthy dal mixed with a bit of green and can be eaten with any kind of bread or rice, the second is a flat bread. You could eat it any time when you're feeling a bit peckish– tea-time, for lunch with curries and other veggies, you could spread some jam or butter over it and eat it and so on. I remember eating this bread mostly with a bit of sugar sprinkled on top. Enjoy!
1) Sai Bhaji
Prep Time: 2 hours
Total Time: 2.5 hours
- 3 Tbsp. Split Bengal Gram, washed and soaked in warm water for 2 hours
- 2 bunches English spinach, roots cut off, washed and chopped roughly
- 1 handful of fresh dill leaves
- 2 large tomatoes chopped fine
- 1 handful fenugreek leaves (if you are unable to find fresh leaves, you can buy a packet of "Kasuri Methi" and follow the instructions given on the packet before adding it to the recipe. Available in Indian stores.)
- 1 large potato cut into 1″ cubes
- 1 large onion cut into 1″ cubes (to be used later and not mixed with the rest of the vegetables to boil)
- 1 cup chopped (1″ cubes) eggplant/aubergine (optional)
- 8-10 French beans, tops and tails cut off and strings removed (optional)
- 1 carrot cut into 1″ thick circles (optional)
- 1 cup chopped (1″ cubes) elephant yam (optional)
- 1/2 Tsp. turmeric powder
- 1 Tsp. coriander powder
- 1″ piece of ginger grated
- 3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- 5 cloves garlic
- 1/2 Tsp. cumin seeds
- 2 finely chopped green chillies
- Salt to taste
- Fresh Coriander leaves to garish
Mix the Bengal gram, vegetables, coriander powder, turmeric powder and ginger in a deep pan/pressure cooker. Add ½ cup water and cook till is done. The hint of the dal being done is when you can mash it to a pulp. Do NOT use the blender to mash it, but do it gently with an egg beater. It is meant to be a thick dal but if you feel it is too thick or dry, add some water and stir it for a bit. Add salt to taste and stir. Leave it aside for the time being.
In the meanwhile, heat the oil in a small pan on medium low heat. Add garlic and let it pop until it turns golden brown. Now add cumin seeds to it along with green chillies. Cover it with a lid and let it pop for about 10 seconds or so. Add onions to it and fry them till well done. Add this mixture to the resting dal and stir to blend well. Garish it with coriander leaves and serve it piping hot with Chapattis.
2) Koki Roti (Onion flatbread):
- 2 cups – Wheat Flour
- Oil
- ½ cup Zucchini (optional)
- Salt to taste
- 2 – Onions
- 2 – Green chilly
- Coriander Leaves
Chop onions finely and add finely cut green chillies, small cut pieces of Zucchini & coriander leaves. Add them all to the wheat flour along with salt to taste and 5 Tbsp. oil. Mix all the content properly and add a bit of water to it from time to time as you knead the mixture. Make sure the dough is soft but not too soft. You can store this dough in the fridge for about 3 days.
Take it out 30 minutes before you plan to make Koki flatbread. Divide the dough into small rounds and roll them with a bit of flour into about an inch thick round bread one by one.
Take an omelette pan heat it on low flame. Place one rolled bread on to it and flip it when one side is done. Spread a bit of butter on the done side and wait for the other side to be cooked. When the other side is done as well, flip it again and spread some butter on this side too. Now take it down and place it on a plate and roll the next Koki to cook. The entire process of cooking the Koki roti takes not more than a minute once it's rolled.
Serve it with curd/ pickle/ poppadum/chutney/butter/tea/ cooked vegetables/dal, etc.

Delicacies from North India!
Not that I'm a very good cook, but sometimes, when the mood takes me I do indulge in a bit of cooking. I don't cook very well, I think but this time around, my hard labour bore good fruit.
You see, I've spent the last two years learning more of Indian cooking than in all my life. So here's something new that I learnt a week back, and to my delight, I found that it was quite delicious! Thought I'd post the recipes out here, one by one, for Indian food enthusiasts. Mind you, it's Indian food- not hot but surely full of fragrant and wholesome spices. I also cooked something yesterday that was purely North Indian (Punjabi) food, but that's for later. So here goes!
1) ONION RICE: (serves 4)
1 cup rice (we use Basmati rice)
1 tsp. cumin seeds
1 tbsp. oil
1 large onion (sliced)
1 red carrot (shredded)
2 garlic cloves (mince them)
1 tbsp. ginger (peel and mince it)
1 ¾-2 cups cups water
Salt to your taste
Put a medium saucepan on heat. First of, heat oil over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds and once they start popping, add onion and carrot. Lower the heat. Stir it while it cooks and the onion becomes pink and tender. It would take about 15 minutes for it to start looking golden brown on low heat.
Add garlic cloves and ginger; cook 2 minutes. The heat now should be on medium.
Now add Basmati rice to it. Stir it so that the rice is coated with the cooked mixture. Add water and salt. Bring to a boil once and then reduce heat and let it simmer. Cover it with a lid and cook until rice is tender. It should take about 20 minutes for the rice to be cooked. You need to check in between to make sure the rice is not dry. If it dries and is not yet cooked, add a little more water.
If you are cooking in a pressure cooker, close the lid after adding the rice and stirring it once. Give it one whistle and turn off the heat to let it cool. Onion rice is ready!
2) Sarson Ka Saag: Eaten mostly during the cold season, it's origins come from Punjab and is widely eaten in both India and Pakistan. Normally it is accompanied by flat bread, jaggery and clarified butter as well as home made butter, but we can also eat it with Onion rice. Ideally, flat bread made of cornmeal flour and this Saag is the best combination, but one can also try the normal rotis (flat bread)
Cooking time -40 minutes
Serves – 4
- 500 grams Sarson (Green mustard leaves) – 500 grams
- 250 grams Tomatoes
- 2 Green chillies (optional)
- 1 inch Ginger stick
- 2 Tbsp. Oil
- A pinch of Asafetida
- 1/4th tsp. Cumin seeds
- 1/4th tsp. each of Turmeric powder and red Chilli powder
- 1 Tbsp. Corn meal flour (alternative is also gram flour, called "Besan")
- Salt to taste
- 1 Tbsp. Butter/Ghee
Wash mustard leaves properly so that there's no more mud on any of the leaves ( much like you wash lettuce) Let water run through it twice and then strain them in a colander.
Cut the leaves in thick long pieces and cook them in a pressure cooker or deep bottom pan with one cup of water. If you're using the pressure cooker, give it one whistle. If using a pan, cook until the leaves are soft. Drain excess water, cool them and grind them. Let them remain a bit coarse after they've been ground. Set the bowl aside.
Make a paste of tomatoes, green chillies and ginger.
Pour some oil in a frying pan, adding Asafetida and cumin seeds to it when it's just starting to heat. Let it roast for about 30-40 seconds. Then add turmeric powder along with corn meal flour and stir. After about a minute, add the paste made of tomatoes, green chillies (optional) and ginger. Add red chilli powder to it and cook it until oil starts separating from the paste. Those who like it a bit hot can add 1 chopped onion and two cloves of garlic to the paste.
When you see the oil separating from the cooked paste, add one glass of water and salt. Now add mustard leaves and stir it well so that everything is nicely mixed together. Cook it on low flame once you see the water evaporating completely for about 5-6 minutes.
While serving, garnish it with home-made butter or fresh cream with a sprig of coriander on the top. Sarson ka Saag is ready!
Khushi woke up in the morning and stretched herself with a smile on her face. The smile disappeared though the moment she realized where she was. She was in the drawing room, sleeping on the sofa. It took only a second for previous evening's events to come back to her and she sat stiff on the sofa, wondering what would happen the next. What would she do if – heaven forbid- she found out that Arnav was serious about keeping the kids with him? Why was he doing this? What-
"I see you're back to deep thinking. I missed you in bed." The mocking drawl brought Khushi up short from her musings. Her heart gave a lurch as she saw Arnav standing on the stairs, his hair ruffled. Above his trousers, he was bare chested and looking as sexy as a handsome man could in the morning.
"Where can a man find spare towel in this house?" He asked coming to stand close to the sofa. Khushi scrambled on to her feet. Belatedly she realized that was a mistake, since now Arnav was very close to her, standing a mere inches away. Stammer took hold of her tongue as she said, "Y-y-you can find it in the cupboard below the stairs. I must rush, I need to wake the kids and get them ready for school."
"School?" Arnav raised puzzled eyes from her body to her face.
Khushi's face flamed at his blatant eye wandering but she kept her wits about her this time. She said, "They both are in play school right now. They will be in a proper primary school the next year."
Saying so, she almost ran away from him, scared and at the same time annoyed with herself for being scared. Truth be told, she wasn't scared of him, never had been much, but she was most certainly scared of her own reactions to him. Last evening had proved to her already how weak she was where Arnav was concerned. She couldn't let him roughshod over her- not at any cost! Her life was set here, with her sons and he was not a part of it. A sadness welled in her at this thought but she fought it away with grim determination. Yes, he had no part in their lives. He had a son and long lost love with him and they were his life, not she and her sons.
She kept on chanting this thought in her mind, deliberately hurting herself inside as she got her sons ready. No body looking at her getting her sons ready for school could say that she was not cheerful.
She packed the lunch boxes into their bags and filled their water bottles, looking disheveled. Although the day was only beginning, she felt as if she'd been up for hours and yet, she had been neat an hour back, when she'd bathed and dressed. But that's what happens when you run behind kids, thought she with a smile. As Aayush tried to ruffle his hair, Khushi automatically reached down and smoothed his hair back into position. He groaned and glared at her but didn't say anything and Khushi smiled wide. "Okay now, you're sure you've got everything needed for today?"
"Sure Mommy!" Cried both
"How sure?" Khushi raised her eyebrows and asked naughtily. This was their daily routine and they all loved it.
"Two thousand times sure." They replied back, grinning.
Khushi gave them both a smacking kiss on their cheeks and said, "Alright, time to scram. Go, go, go!"
Both the kids rushed out as Savita hollered from outside. It was her turn today to take her daughter and Khushi's sons to playschool. But something weird happened then, that Khushi had not expected.
They turned back, and looked around. Khushi looked at them, puzzled. And then, she felt Arnav behind her. She turned to look at him, her breath nearly catching in her throat. Arnav had just taken a shower and had a towel round his waist. Save that, he was all man in his glory; water clinging at places on his body and his hair. A wave of desire rose inside Khushi but she stemmed it immediately, knowing if Arnav saw it, he'd take his chance.
Arnav came to stand beside her. In an instant, the kids came to him. Aarush was a little slow but Ayush had no such doubts. He flung himself in Arnav's arms as Arnav bent to hold him. A hug and a kiss was given to Ayush and then, not wanting to be left out, Aarush also came forward to be hugged and kissed. Arnav ruffled their hair and said, "Get going dudes. See you later!"
Aarush looked at him intently, "You'll be here? You won't go away?"
Aranv nodded his head and said, "Yes, I'll be here."
"Good. I want to show you my books when I come back." Said Aarush and then they both went off.
To say that Khushi was astounded was an understatement. Her sons were so much like him, and them together like this—it made Khushi very emotional; emotional and scared. She had almost cried when Arnav had hugged Ayush and Aarush with love. No one could doubt his love for them or their acceptance of him; and yet they'd only met yesterday evening. She knew Aarush was still hesitant but Ayush – he had accepted his father in his life completely. Oh, to be a child and accept everyone unconditionally!
It scared Khushi; this feeling. Feeling wary of his next move, she moved a little away from him. As it was, she could smell the spicy notes of his aftershave; she knew he preferred The One from D&G. She remembered the time when he'd put it on and smile his shark smile. She loved kissing him after he'd put it on; loving the scent of it on him and then rubbing on to her. They'd always ended up in bed. She gulped and tried to not stare but couldn't help herself.
"I'm your husband Khushi. It is your right to look at my body and covet every inch of it, but when you do that, I can't resist you- you know that."Arnav's husky reminder put Khushi back on alert, with her nose and cheeks going red.
She turned around so that her back faced his front and said, "Go, get dressed. I need to open shop. You can go now, back to where you came from."
In a millisecond, she was caught by her shoulders and turned around, to face an angry Arnav.
"I told you yesterday night what I wanted and what I meant to do. In case you had any doubts, let me repeat Khushi Singh Raizada. I'm your husband-legally wedded husband and it is my legal right to see to it that my wife and kids are with me."
"Wh-what are you talking about? Surely you can't be serious Arnav!" Khushi tried to get free of his hold, "Chhodiye humain!"
"Not happening." He said and pulled her closer to him. When Khushi pushed him, he let her go for a second. In the next instant, Khushi was upside down, like a sack of potatoes on his shoulder. She pummeled his back with blows, saying, "Put me down this instant Arnav Singh Raizada.. or else!"
"OR else?" Arnav's chuckle reverberated through her backside as he held her firmly and walked upstairs.
With each step, Khushi's breathing got faster. What was he doing? Where was he taking her? Surely not— !!! HE wouldn't dare! She fumed and growled, "You put me down now! This is not your house, samjhe aap!"
Arnav had almost reached Khushi's room when she spoke. He stopped immediately and put her down. Her words had cut him but he didn't let it show. She tried to turn away from him but he caught her again by the waist and pulled her close to him. There was not a single part of his body that wasn't demanding release at this time, yet his heart was hurting. His amber eyes were icy now with anger as he looked into her eyes and saw her flinching, her body in his arms, trembling.
He said, "Khushi Singh Raizada, yes- this is not my house but it isn't yours either. Your house is with me- in New Delhi. Your home is Shanti Van, not this two floored building. I will make sure you learn some obedience before we go back." Khushi opened her mouth to refute but he merely said, "Make no mistake my wife, this time around I'm beside you and you will come home with me, even if I have to resort to other measures to do so."

Social workers can earn CEUs for licensure renewal and to enhance their practice. There are several different formats through which CEUs can be earned, and courses can cover many social work-related topics.
CEU Requirements
To become eligible to earn a license, most social workers must receive a master's degree in social work and accumulate several thousand hours of clinical experience; from there, they must pass an exam. Periodically, social workers must earn CEUs in order to renew their licenses. CEU requirements vary between jurisdictions. For example, Michigan requires 45 hours during the 3-year period prior to license renewal. Additionally, each state may have specific CEUs in ethics that must be met.
Along with meeting licensure requirements, CEUs support professional development. These courses can help social workers:
- Acquire new knowledge within the field
- Refine their skills
- Increase their proficiency in their field of expertise
- Meet changing career demands
- Evaluate the current state of their skills
CEU Options
Program Options
Social workers can earn CEUs in live workshops, as well as through online and home study courses. Online and home study options allow students to earn only some of the total amount of CEUs needed for renewal. For example, Wisconsin allows students to earn up to 16 hours of continuing education through online programs, while Maryland allows students to earn up to 20 hours of continuing education units through home study. These CEU courses usually award individuals with a certificate upon completion.
Additionally, CEUs are available through the Association of Social Work Boards and the National Association of Social Workers (NASW). It's important to note, however, that CEUs earned from the NASW might not be accepted in certain states, including Michigan, New York and West Virginia; therefore, social workers need to consult with their state licensure boards before enrolling in a certain program.
Subject Options
CEU courses can cover several areas, from clinical practice topics to working with special segments of the population. CEU credits might be earned by taking courses on:
- International social work
- Substance abuse issues
- Motivational interviewing
- Child abuse and neglect
- Dialectical behavior therapy
- Social work and technology
Although licensure renewal requirements vary between states, they involve the accumulation of a certain number of CEUs. Social workers can find CEU offerings available in a variety of formats in several relevant subjects.

We're excited to see one of our clients, the Museum of London, launch their new website today.
We started working with them more than a year ago, helping them put in place a digital strategy that helps "inspire a passion for London" across Londoners and visitors alike.
We spent a lot of time in the museum galleries, talking both staff and visitors and gathering ideas. One thing that stood out was that the museum had so many stories to tell that everyone could find something to relate to. The new website was specifically structured to bring to life as much of this as possible - not just get people to visit the museum but also inspire them to explore London's past, present and future.
As a London-based agency, we're proud to have contributed to one of the great museums of our city.
Read our case study to find out more details about the project.
Pay now by credit card or later by invoice (invoice payments only possible if all courses are 3+ weeks in advance)

For many years the Iowa Atheists & Freethinkers, member of the Central Iowa CoR, have placed a booth at the Des Moines Farmer's Market. The Downtown Farmer's Market has been ranked #2 of the 101 Best Farmers Markets In America by The Daily Meal for 2013 and 2014. The Market has over 200 vendors spanning nine city blocks and 20,000 visitors on any given Saturday. The IAF has a booth on Memorial Day, the 4th of July and Labor Day holiday weekends. Setup begins at 6:00 am and the event runs from 7 am to noon. The booth now incorporates the signs from the 2009 bus ad campaign "Don't believe in God? You are not alone." AND the 2014 Central Iowa CoR billboard campaign "Godless? So Are We!"
This Labor Day weekend we expected to face a number of argumentative people in the wake of the Kim Davis situation in Kentucky. To our surprise the crowd was overwhelmingly supportive! On the side of the booth is another banner declaring "Keep Religion Out of Politics" and that garnered many positive comments including folks that said even though they believed in God they agreed with that message! There were many, many people that stopped by and asked us more about the group and picked up literature. The IAF's "Get Out of Church Free" cards are a big hit! Sure, there were a few negative comments thrown at us such as "Shame on you guys!", "What you need is MORE God!" and "I'm glad I'm not an atheist!". Unlike past Farmer's Markets we had very little in those who wanted to debate or argue. Public sentiment has certainly seemed to change since the huge controversy of the Des Moines Metro bus ad campaign six years ago!

Just as minivans replaced the family station wagon in the 1980s, so too did big SUVs vanquish those vans in the 1990s. Since then, however, the Great Recession and occasional gas price shocks have returned the largest SUVs to their original role in the market: expensive vehicles bought by people who need big, multi-passenger vehicles that can tow a lot of weight. The segment leaders are the Chevrolet Tahoe and its longer sibling, the Suburban, and it isn't hard to figure out why: Their main competitor, the Ford Expedition, hadn't seen a major update in almost a decade.
Now all that has changed. Behold the behemoth: an all-new 2018 Ford Expedition that aims to knock the Chevy off its top-truck throne — as it did in our Full-Size SUV Challenge.
Old-School Truck, New-School Materials
Like the old Expedition, the new one maintains traditional, trucklike body-on-frame construction. Under the skin, the Expedition is an F-150 enhanced with an independent rear suspension instead of a solid live axle. This arrangement also allows for a lower load floor in the cargo area, enabling the third row to fold away completely — an advantage over the Chevy Tahoe's seats, which fold flat but not into the floor. The Tahoe's raised floor eats into cargo space and makes it more difficult to load objects.
Like the F-150, the Expedition's body is now aluminum, but the weight difference for 2018 isn't that significant — just a 119-pound decrease for the base trim versus a comparable 2017 Expedition. Ford added all kinds of equipment and sound insulation that serve to offset some of the benefit of lightweight aluminum. The body looks slick, with a new and thoroughly modern appearance that's much more in keeping with the modern style of truck: high beltline, smaller windows and chunkier style. It's fresh, attractive and has a distinctly more aerodynamic look than the outgoing model.
The Expedition comes in two lengths: Expedition and Expedition Max (formerly Expedition EL). The extra room doesn't do anything for passenger space, but it does increase the cargo area behind the third row, so you're not forced to choose between extra rear passengers and extra luggage capacity. My primary test vehicle was a regular-length Expedition, though Cars.com editors have also driven the Max.
Old-Style Power, New-Style Engine
Powering the new Expedition is Ford's ubiquitous twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6, a carryover engine. It puts out a healthy 375 horsepower in most trim levels and 400 hp in the top Platinum. New to the setup is a standard 10-speed automatic transmission — available with either rear- or all-wheel drive — and an electronic limited-slip differential.
Fire up the V-6 and it sounds like a well-tuned turbo-diesel. Some of the engine's noise is artificially generated through the stereo (all that soundproofing would prevent you from hearing the engine otherwise), but the sound that does come through is a fun mix of whooshing turbos and raspy exhaust. It sounds sufficiently butch for the truck it powers.
I found driving it to be quite a pleasant surprise, as well — the V-6 more than adequately powers the Expedition in both regular and Max versions, and it gets even punchier when you twist the rotary drive mode selector into Sport. Climbing the canyons above Malibu, Calif., handling the tight, twisting sweepers, descending into quick switchbacks — the Expedition exudes confidence and stability. Sport mode tightens up steering feedback and changes both accelerator sensitivity and transmission shift points, making those twisties even easier to take. Nobody will confuse the Expedition for a Mustang, but it by no means embarrasses itself on high-speed, challenging roads.
Ride quality is also outstanding. Wheel sizes vary from 18 to 22 inches depending on trim level and equipment. Higher-spec trims get an electronically adjustable suspension, but lesser models' suspensions provide a smooth, well-controlled ride, as well; there are no crazy, tippy body motions. If you need an off-road rig, Ford's got you covered there, too: An FX4 package is available that brings underbody protection, a low-range transfer case, special tuning for the electronic limited-slip differential, Michelin Primacy tires on smaller wheels, off-road shocks, a heavy-duty radiator and unique badging.
Hooked up to a 5,500-pound camper, my Expedition towed like a champ, chugging up 6 percent inclines with ease, accelerating despite the load it hauled. The 10-speed automatic is well-matched to the engine, holding gears on downhill grades to save the Expedition's brakes and maintain easy control. The instrument panel also shows you tons of information, such as which gear the transmission's in at any given time.
Trailer sway control comes with a heavy-duty towing package, as does Ford's super-nifty Pro Trailer Backup Assist feature, which allows you to back up a trailer using a dedicated rotary knob on the dash and backup cameras. It takes the guesswork and trial and error out of backing up a trailer, making even the newest novice look like a veteran trucker.
Hooked up to a 5,500-pound camper, my Expedition towed like a champ, chugging up 6 percent inclines with ease, accelerating despite the load it hauled.
Where the Expedition falls short is in fuel economy, especially when towing. It also features a smaller gas tank than its main competition, meaning its overall range is notably shorter. The regular Expedition is EPA-rated at 17/24/20 mpg city/highway/combined with two-wheel drive, 17/22/19 mpg with four-wheel drive. The longer Expedition Max clocks in at 17/23/19 mpg with 2WD, 16/21/18 mpg with 4WD. In a recent real-world test for the Full-Size SUV Challenge, my Expedition 4WD achieved 21.5 mpg in combined driving, better than its 19 mpg rating. But that number dropped dramatically to 10.2 mpg when towing a camper — a steeper loss than the V-8-powered competitors in our Challenge exhibited, though still not the lowest mpg. Turns out that the twin-turbocharged engines positively suck down the petrol when you put the engine under some serious load, as I did up and down the hills of eastern Arizona. Combine that with the smaller gas tank, and you'll be making frequent pit stops if you're towing a trailer cross-country.
Better Inside, But Details Are Important
The interior looks as if it could have been lifted directly from the F-150, with all the pros and cons that entails. It's spacious, with excellent outward visibility, but the front seats feel unsupportive over longer voyages. One of our taller reviewers could not get comfortable, with his legs always at an angle and most of his thighs unsupported by the oddly short bottom cushions. The backseats are high, with plenty of room, and the ability to slide fore and aft means passengers in the two rear rows can negotiate legroom amongst themselves. The third row is usable for adults even when the second row is adjusted all the way rearward; slide it forward a bit and there really isn't a bad seat in the house. The second row also tilts and slides forward at the touch of a button, making ingress to the third row easier.
Materials quality in the cabin is mixed. The F-150 isn't known for having the best environment in its own class; it features plenty of hard plastic and seams between parts that simply don't flow together well. Some of this, like plastic molding seams on the grab handles, can be chalked up to early build quality, but some of it is simply how it's designed — it's a pickup truck that's been given a healthy makeover, but it's still a pickup truck in the ways that count. For a vehicle that can easily approach $90,000 in fully loaded Platinum trim and even top $70,000 for a well-equipped Limited model, this kind of detail is important. All the fancy quilted leather in the world doesn't excuse the fact that other parts look cheap.
The Latest Tech
Thankfully, Ford loads you up with tech goodies for that kind of coin, including gadgets that entertain (you can stream live TV to the entertainment system via Slingplayer and Sync 3, or even hook up a big-screen TV for tailgating), some that keep you safe (all kinds of lane-keeping aids, steering aids, anti-collision aids and autonomous braking systems), and some that help you drive (like the aforementioned trailer backup assist). The high-end audio system is by the new B&O Play brand, a division of Bang & Olufsen, and it sounds fantastic.
The entire experience in the Expedition is one of a significant upgrade, easily on par with the Chevy and GMC models on many levels and surpassing them in flexibility, spaciousness and amenities.
All This Utility Does Not Come Cheap
If you haven't priced out a full-size SUV in awhile, you'd better sit down for this next part. The starting price for an Expedition XL 4×2 is $49,290 including destination charges, but you'll never see that price on a dealer lot — they're meant for fleet sales to utilities or city governments.
Far more likely to be found is an XLT trim, which starts at $52,985 with two-wheel drive. Specifying four-wheel drive adds between $3,000 and $3,200 to the price depending on trim level. Add in everything you can get and you're looking at an Expedition Max Platinum 4×4 that will stop just short of 85 grand.
My regular-length Limited 4×4 model stickered at $72,655 including destination, and that included several popular equipment packages and leather for the first and second rows. For comparison's sake, the new 2018 Lincoln Navigator starts around $73,000 and can top out around $100,000.
Still, the Expedition's price is easily competitive with vehicles like the Tahoe, Suburban and GMC Yukon. It comes in at a bit more than the Nissan Armada, but it's a significantly larger vehicle with a much bigger interior. It's comparable in size to the Toyota Sequoia but has far surpassed that old, outdated model. It's more refined, with a much nicer interior and a multimedia system that's at least two or three generations more current.
With buyers snapping up big SUVs in increasing numbers, Ford's update to its big truck comes at the perfect time. That the truck is as good as it is should put Chevy on notice.

Tiny Booklice: How to Identify and Get Rid of Them
Booklice Are Tiny and Love Mold and Fungi
Booklice (psocids) are itsy, bitsy little bugs - about 1/16 " long and they are not actually lice at all and are harmless. But, they are still bugs and must be dealt with accordingly!
If you've got any dried out or decaying plants, you might find these little critters enjoying a plant buffet, or they may even be lurking around your stored food.
For identification purposes, the head and abdomen of a booklouse appear large, and the midsection is more narrow. Huge, compound eyes protrude from the sides of the head. They also have thread-like antennae that sweep back toward the abdomen. Not all booklice have wings, but some do (usually the booklice that stay outside), and when they do, there are four of them - two smaller front wings and two larger back wings. Most of the ones you will be hunting indoors should be wingless booklice.
If you live in the United States, there is a bit of good news about booklice, in that there are only about a few hundred known species here. The rest of the world has about another 1,000 species. They are tiny, but this article will show you where to look for them and how to eradicate them from your home or business.
Remember this about booklice, if nothing else: They feed only on fungi or mold, so if you find them it is an indication that you have high humidity that is apparently encouraging mold growth. So, above all, eliminate the moist environmental conditions you may be unknowingly providing for these pests.
Note: If you have only one of these pests (not likely), it's called a booklouse, which we find to be a fitting name.
A Booklouse, Up Close
Know the Places That Booklice Love!
If you have any debris (scattered pieces of waste) around your home, the booklice are lining up to thank you for their new home! You can also look for them under bark or stones and on the bark of trees. The more gregarious species live in silken webs on trunks or branches of trees. Barklice is the common name for the winged forms and the wingless forms are called booklice (potato, po-tah-to). All of them are capable of running fast! And, they love to feed on the starchy materials in the bindings of books, hence the name booklice.
The Things You Will Need to Find Booklice
Here's what you'll need:
* Flashlight
* Magnifying Glass
* Maybe a fan or dehumidifier. (This is a link to the one that we use).
- Booklice really love paper, so you might find them on bookbindings, photographs, or even your wallpaper. You can look for them to thrive in a dark basement or storeroom if you have one, and if you have a second home that you close up for part of the year, they have probably set up residence there as well. If you live in an older, loosely-constructed home, there are probably a lot more booklice living there than people. You may need to invest in a good magnifying glass to see them, but they are there.
How to Get Rid of Them!
- So, now that you know what they look like and where you might find them, here's a good way to get rid of them (although you will never completely get rid of them all, so just accept that fact): If you find booklice on objects that can be taken outdoors, then do just that, and clean them thoroughly, allowing them to dry in the sun. Because booklice are soft-bodied insects, they dry out quickly in the sun, so the sun will probably kill the ones you miss.
- In places like a storeroom or closed house, open up the windows and let the room dry out. Turn off any humidifiers that might be on, and use a fan or dehumidifier if you have one. Booklice thrive when there's moisture, so get rid of it.
- The most important thing to look for is the breeding area of the booklice, such as upholstered furniture, damp papers or books, and old mattresses, just to name a few. If simple cleaning without the use of chemicals doesn't seem to be getting the job done, you might have to bring out the "big guns," by buying household insecticides containing pyrethrins, rotenone, allethrin, chlorpyrifos or propoxur labeled for crawling insects or booklice.
- If you find that booklice have contaminated your food, you will first need to kill the critters by sticking the whole contaminated mess in your microwave and nuke them for a few minutes. Then, throw the stuff away. You certainly don't want your family to eat insect-contaminated food.
A Problem For Libraries
Many libraries have discovered that books inadvertently stored under moist, high-humidity conditions often develop fungal growths attractive to booklice. As a result, many libraries are climate controlled.
Be Vigilant and Thorough in Your Search
- You will need a magnifying glass to be able to see them and know where to clean (they are almost microscopic).
- The eggs of booklice are laid singly or in clusters and are sometimes covered with a silken web.
- In bathrooms, be sure to install a vent fan and ALWAYS use it while taking showers and baths.
- Get a pest management company to check the crawlspace under your home to ensure you have proper ventilation. They also need to see if the crawlspace is dry.
You might also check the roofline of your home for the following three things: Poor attic ventilation, overgrown trees, and eaves full of leaves. If you find any of these conditions around your home, which can cause areas of increased moisture, by all means, take the necessary steps to correct them.
Another Reason to Hate Dust
The dead bodies of booklice in house dust, are believed by some to trigger an asthma attack.

Thank you so much for this article, one of the most helpful out there! I'm trying to eliminate possible places they are living, do you think dry cleaning clothing will kill them and eggs?
I found what seems like these insects in my apartment, specifically on my paintings and on the walls. They appear to eating the paint. My apartment has very high humidity but is less then one year old. So I wonder if there is mould. But it is strange to me that they are eating the fresh paint on the painting I'm currently working on.
Update: they are also on my windowsill, I hate bugs and haven't slept in my bedroom in days
Hi I'm finding these in my bed no where else.. if I throw my bed away will they go away as well ? I'm scared to buy a whole new mattress just so they can go into the new one.
please help me. I just found these things about 2 weeks ago and I am loosing my mind over it. Did you ever get rid of them?
Are there other animals/insects that eat book lice?
A real nightmare those creatures. A year ago we discovered they infested our entire home: furniture, books, shoes...everything. We threw away everything we owned and moved to a different place. Now a few days ago we see them again, crawling on our walls... It's hopeless...
I've only seen these on my kitchen counter near the sink and it's mostly at night, but as I was cleaning out my pantry l found a plastic bag of organic millet I bought probably a year ago. Just before tossing it I noticed it looked powdery on the bottom of the bag, so I grabbed my magnifying loop and sure enough the lice were having a party in there! The zip lock was sealed, so I'm wondering if I didn't bring them in on the millet when I purchased it from the bulk bin @ the grocery store? Also, the millet was bone dry.
I buy mostly organic, so it's no surprise that I'm likely trading pesticides for critters.
Ive had problems with these for 5 years ive moved house 4 times and thrown away nearly everything i own then thrown away again and bought new they just syrvive everywhere their disgusting and theres no way to get rid of them. In the first house i discovered them theyd infested my entire kitchen bathroom and shoe storage. Evey house ive been in they are there id love to know a cure i hate hate hate them. They give me relaly bad anxiety as ive thrown away a lot of infested items precious things i cant replace and i cry a lot over what ive lost becaus of these horrible insects. Everything i read says they dont spread disease ect but its not the point nobody wants bugs crawling in their belongings. I go away to hotles ect never see one i check friends houses when im there never see them. I go away to caravans a lot never see them in any of them i never saw them when i was younger and i would have noticed them if they were there i first discovered them at 26 yrs old never before seen them in my life and its aparent their becoming more abundant as a lot of people are complainig of their presance and most older people i speak to have never seen or herd of them its a nightmare
I have clothing/sleeping bags etc. that were in a box where we found them. We've done pest treatment, dehumidifying etc and now we are only finding dead ones (so far, I've been afraid to dig too much until I knew what to do with the clothes). I just wondered if it was okay to put all that stuff through the washing machine or if that would potentially give some a new moist environment to live in if there are any that are still alive... I'm not trying to have them in our washing machine. We are on the third floor in an apartment, so we can't really sun our stuff out for long.
Thanks so much for your article and advice.
After cleaning out the cupboard again today. Washing absolutely everything. Also recleaning my cabinets with any food items not sealed. Tonight I've checked and seen three tiny ones!
Tomorrow morning I'm removing all my cookbooks and taking them outside for a few days of sun. Although I haven't seen any bugs on books.
I don't have a steamer but sounds like a good idea.
I have a feeling that these bugs are living in this furniture and I may need to just get rid of it.
Thanks again
I have tiny creamy/white colored bugs in and on a kitchen piece of furniture. They are really tiny.
All foods and packaging has been removed.
It's where I store cups, saucers, plates and glasses.
I'm fed up as I've removed everything and washed everything a few times now. And they come back!
It's not a damp area. Not near pipes or water supply.
Any open foods have been thrown away. All foodstuffs now are in plastic containers.
Can anyone give me some advice to get rid of them?
I have found the same tiny clear bugs on the mattress cover seams and all over the curtains. I've looked and looked at them under the magnifying glass and they just don't look like a bed beg and none were reddish or brown, they were longer and looked just like your photo once actually jumped as I tried to grab it with a tweezer. I'm just not sure I would find book lice in the mattress cover seams. What do you think?
Would book lice be in the seams of mattress covers like bed bugs?
can these booklice feed off of humans like regular lice?
I have small white insects crawling out of skirting boards I have no dampness what r they any help please
So pretty much its just cleaning and maintaining the problem. there is no real "cure" to eliminate these critters permanently?

My New Husband: "I Was Never Attracted To You"
This wonderful story of discovering a lasting sense of self-worth comes from a new title at Deseret Book, Why I Don't Hide My Freckles Anymore: Perspectives on True Beauty. The language is so personal and moving, and the message so vital, you simply can't miss this story:
"Six months after our wedding, my husband and I gingerly approached a topic that was becoming obvious to both of us—he was not physically attracted to me.
"No, he was not gay. He was, however, embarrassed to be discussing with me feelings he didn't have for me. He felt shallow and ashamed. He was still certain I was the very best choice for a life companion, but he had never really thought of me as attractive."
Find out the amazing realization of true beauty the anonymous author comes to in the full story.
Church Asks "Ordain Women" to Reconsider Protesting
In light of last year's events, when members of the "Ordain Women" activist group attempted to get tickets for the priesthood session of general conference, Church public affairs woman Jessica Moody wrote a letter to the group on behalf of the Church requesting that they reconsider protesting again at next month's meeting. The letter reads, in part:
"The priesthood session of general conference is designed to strengthen men and boys as they receive specific instruction about their roles and responsibilities; there we are unable to fulfill your request for tickets.
[. . .]
"Activist events like this detract from the sacred environment of Temple Square and the spirit of harmony sought at general conference. Please reconsider."

What I Gave Up When I Married at 19
Getting married quickly and young is such a staple of Mormon culture that jokes about LDS engagements litter every Mormon humor page on the internet. But what are these young people "giving up" when they get married at such a young age?
LDS blogger Natasha Craig, who was married at 19, explains how getting married young worked for her in this viral post:
"Yes I did give up YEARS of my life that I can NEVER get back or change.
"BUT the difference between me and you is I don't regret one day, minute or second of those years.
"If anything... I wish I had began this incredible journey called marriage sooner, because nothing I have ever done, or could ever do, has filled me with as much love, happiness and peace as this."
The full post includes many great insights about the character of marriage and is a definite must-read, a la "Marriage Isn't For You"--make sure you check it out.

"…but some former officials say the disgraced ex-president would be 'absolutely disgusted' by Donald Trump."
Publishing that kind of vague generalization is simply not journalism.
It's the stuff of gossip columns.
If Trump is so terrible as The Guardians editors are convinced he is, then give readers some hard facts so they may make up their minds.
But the very fact that you print, day after day, innuendos, unwarranted generalizations, and just smears tells thoughtful readers you don't have any factual basis for your dislike, just one of attitudes.
So how are you any different from what you keep accusing Trump of?
You are not.
By the way, in a related matter of attitude over facts, we have yet another shameful article today trying to associate the decent Jeremy Corbyn with anti-Semitism.
An accusation of "Labour creating a safe space for vie anti-Semitic attitudes." I put it to you that nothing is more vile than just such accusations themselves and giving them substance by repeating them.
Comments there are, of course, not permitted.

their hips and their bellies off balance

| Army of the Dead
Class: Necromancer (Diablo III)
Required Level: 22
Skill Category: Reanimation
Cooldown: 120 seconds
Raise a massive skeletal army to pummel the targeted location dealing 12000% damage as Physical in a 15 yard radius.
Damage Type: Physical
Army of the Dead is a Necromancer skill in Diablo III.
This ability revolves around summoning a horde of skeletons to attack the designated targeted area, dealing massive damage to every enemy they reach over a brief time period (roughly 4 seconds).
Skeletons are not actual Pets: they are animated as such, but do not have separate attacks, ignore the terrain and do not block enemy pathing.
- Blighted Grasp: Damage type changes to Poison, and damage and duration increase to 14000% over 5 seconds. Visually, the skeletons no longer mass up, but reach out from the ground.
- Death Valley: The skeletal army knocks all affected enemies towards the center of the area when activated; deals damage over 1 second instead of 4. Counts as Knockback.
- Unconventional Warfare: Skeletons will rise from the ground and attack up to 5 random targets for 4 seconds, increasing total damage done to 50000% over 10 hits. No longer hits the entire area. Each skeleton will try to find a different target (distributing hits as evenly as possible), but if not enough enemies are in the area, these strikes can all go towards the same enemy.
- Frozen Army: Damage type changes to Cold, and instead of a circular area, skeletons will march onward as a long wave, hitting all all enemies in a 15 yards wide, 40 yards long line over 4 seconds.
- Dead Storm: Instead of summoning the Army, surrounds the Necromancer with a blood storm that follows them, damaging enemies within 15 yards for 15500% damage as Physical over 5 seconds. Adds a 20% total Life cost.
Non-rune enhancementsEdit
- Fate's Vow (Legendary Helm): Army of the Dead deals 200-250% increased damage and gains the effect of the Unconventional Warfare rune, in addition to its normal effect (with Unconventional Warfare rune, summons twice as many skeletal strikes).
- Bones of Rathma Set (Set Bonus for 2 items): Necromancer's minions have a chance to reduce the remaining cooldown of Army of the Dead by 1 second each time they deal damage.
- Bones of Rathma Set (Set Bonus for 6 items): each active Skeletal Mage increases the damage of all minions and Army of the Dead by 1000%, up to 4000%.
- Trag'Oul's Avatar Set (Set Bonus for 6 items): Dead Storm deals 3800% increased damage but costs twice as much Life to cast. Healing from skills is increased by 100%.
- Rathma's Shield: for 4 seconds after casting Army of the Dead, the Necromancer will lose no Life, both from attacks and from their own Blood skills.
- Blood for Blood: removes the Life cost of Dead Storm rune when picking up a Health Globe, storing up to 3 charges.
- Blood is Power: every 100% of maximum Life drained by the Dead Storm rune will reduce all remaining cooldowns by 20%.
"For Army of the Dead, we knew we wanted a long cooldown, flashy spell, and I knew we needed a spell to show people how we were going to bring the Necromancer to the next level. We gave it a name from a skill which also exists in World of Warcraft, and people just assumed, "oh, okay, they're just going to copy-paste that." Then we got to show it at BlizzCon, and there were literally over one hundred skeletons on the screen. Is this a world record? It has to be. Seeing the reaction from the crowd at BlizzCon was really satisfying. I'm always looking forward to those moments."— Julian Love(src)
At BlizzCon 2016, the ability summoned over 100 skeletons.[1] As of March 2017, the developers were toying with the idea of a 50 limit, and even this was planned to be reduced, as multiple Necromancers in the same game could result in hundreds of skeletons on-screen.[2]
This spell is named "Skelebomb" in game files.

Trauma is emotional, physical, and psychological. Consider the cycle of a traumatic event. When we face trauma, our minds and bodies enter a state of fight or flight. Our survival hormone adrenaline kicks in to give us the energy and attention we need to make it through. What happens when the traumatic event is over? Without any sort of completion or closure, we essentially maintain unfinished business in our minds and bodies. Though the adrenaline slows down, it doesn't exactly go away. You might notice that people who have experienced trauma can seem on edge. Residual adrenaline is untreated trauma. Edginess, distance, and difficulty in relationship, as well as depression or anxiety, are symptoms of untreated trauma.
Being in a constant state of defense is the byproduct of being in a constant state of fear. Trauma is ongoing until it is faced through intensive treatment, therapy, and healing. Essential parts of the brain responsible for growth and development are damaged in childhood trauma. Critical developmental stages are compromised by the effects of trauma. As a result, emotional maturation, and mental health can be impaired. In addition, cognitive capabilities can be damaged.
Growing up in an unstable home creates fear. We don't know what to expect or when chaos might ensue, so we are constantly expecting the worst. Abuse runs deeply. Research shows that emotional, verbal, and mental abuse affect the brain almost identically to the way physical abuse does.
Trauma is characterized as a situation which is uncontrollable. We fear what we cannot control. Many of us turn to harmful substances and behaviors to feel as though we enact some control in our lives. Using drugs and alcohol abusively might make us feel as though we are escaping the abuses of our past. Turning on the dopamine, the pleasure transmitter in the brain, quiets the long term effects of trauma. Coincidentally, substance abuse is also a symptom of trauma. Though the euphoria might be therapeutic in the moment, substance abuse will only worsen and prolong long lasting traumatization. At the end of every high, at the end of every bottle, the past is still there demanding to be reckoned with.
Does therapy make the past go away? Nothing, as of yet, can erase time and memory for good. However, treatment will help ease the pain of the past. Through the recovery process you will learn how to cope with your emotions, understand your behaviors, and make change. You will gain tools for managing triggering situations and any situation in life. Healing is different from eradicating, but it is likely to be more effective. There is hope. Hold onto it.

Older, Slimmer and Not Yet Shorter
3 comments:
I guess, in comparison to the obese people around, I'm not fat. Just thick. Very thick.ReplyDelete
It happens to some people that they do begin to get slimmer as they age. One of my sisters is like that, too. Now that she is over sixty, she looks slim in comparison to others around her. As long as you are healthy and your size doesn't hold you back from doing what you want, it begins to matter less and less as we age, it seems. :-)ReplyDelete
I have trained myself not to obsess over the number on a scale and just let my clothes tell me when it is time to cut back for a bit, but hitting menopause was a rude time for my body. I did get boobs without having to pay a plastic surgeon. On the other hand, I used to have a round bottom and a flat tummy. Now those two areas have traded places entirely.ReplyDelete

Sunday we can expect sunny skies, temperatures slightly above average, and low humidity – nearly perfect. This gorgeous stretch of weather will continue into Monday. Daytime high temperatures will peak around 80 degrees for most, and the overnight should cool comfortably into the 50s.
Our week does look unsettled. So far this spring we've seen a lot of rainy days, but below-average precipitation. It appears that we will see more than just showers this week.
In-depth news coverage of the Greater Boston Area.
Two days look very wet – Tuesday and Thursday. Both days have a chance of delivering 1-2" of rain. As far as the timing, the rain moves in late Monday night and continues into early Tuesday afternoon. Thursday looks wet all day long. The day also looks cool with high temperatures only in the mid to upper 60s.
Wednesday could be the gem of the week. We catch a break in between storm systems. Skies will be sunny and temperatures will reach the low 70s.
Thursday's storm is slow to depart and showers could continue into Friday. At this point, the weather looks to improve significantly by Friday afternoon.

Next weekend looks like a 50/50 split. Saturday is looking like the beach day. Most of the region should see sunny skies and temperatures in the mid to upper 70s. Sunday looks a bit unsettled. At this point, don't cancel your outdoor plans, but it might be a good idea to start thinking about a few backup plans.
The unsettled weather looks to continue into the follow week with temperatures holding in the mid to upper 70s.

"Laurie Zimet was one of the first people to engage with me in an explicit and rigorous way about what it means to be an effective teacher."
UC Hastings Law Director of Academic Support Laurie Zimet has been honored by the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) for her career-long contributions to the development of law student academic support.
Zimet joined UC Hastings in 1996. As Director of Academic Support, she is a recognized expert in diverse teaching methods and assessment. She has designed institutional assessments and implementation strategies to promote student learning and bar passage.
"When I started teaching at UC Hastings and was still a relatively new classroom professor, Laurie Zimet was one of the first people to engage with me in an explicit and rigorous way about what it means to be an effective teacher," said Professor and Academic Dean Morris Ratner.
"How do we connect with students? How do we make sure that our students are actually learning? What methods work? Laurie has devoted her professional life to answering these questions, and I feel fortunate to have been able to learn from her and to call her a colleague."
Zimet developed a Discussion Group Leader program as an element of the 1L curriculum. She helps fresh 1Ls develop academic success skills via 1:1 advising and group sessions. She also teaches the upper division course Torts 2: Law & Process. With a grant from the Institute for Law Teaching & Learning, she helped create videos and accompanying materials on teaching and learning in use at more than 170 law schools.
"Academic Support recognizes that students come to law school with different aspirations, backgrounds, and approaches to learning," Zimet said. "We tailor our teaching to assist students to achieve their potential and delight in their success."
"Academic support and teaching methods have now become institutionalized parts of legal education. I am honored to receive this award and grateful to UC Hastings for the opportunity to teach 'outside the box' within the law school and professionally." Zimet said. "I remain inspired by my colleagues at Hastings and nationally who focus on pedagogy and the art of teaching to promote student engagement and success."
Zimet has a long career in academic support. Prior to joining UC Hastings, she directed the Academic Success Program at Santa Clara University School of Law. She also taught law courses at Mills College and served as an advisor for the school's interdisciplinary law major. After graduating from UC Hastings, Laurie served in private practice in the area of civil litigation, emphasizing third-party liability.
Zimet was a founding member of the Academic Support section of AALS. She will accept the award Jan. 3, 2020, at the AALS annual meeting in Washington, D.C.
