This forum is a LOT tamer, and in some ways not as fun, than it used to be during the first decade of the early noughties, when I first joined GEO. It was on for young and old, back in the day ! lol It has become a bit grey biz suit personality wise and reads more like a financial forum with the odd snippy provocative comment...To be expected considering the economic climate and where the forum is located, not as relaxed or anywhere near as vibrant as it once was, a decade and a half ago.
I think, over the course of the 13 years that I've been on here, the forum has definitely dulled down, (matured ?), becoming a bit dryer...... certainly there is still a little racial bias and the odd personality clash toward certain topics/posters. ( less figjam these days) but overall, I think, we just got older,( bored) losing the stomach to be as passionate/political about ' stuff ' that most of us just cannot do anything about. Might as well just kick an empty can down the road, feels better
Anyway Bernadette, welcome to the GEO forums and try not to get baited, or wound up, don't take the forum too seriously, it wouldn't be GEOEXPAT without the occasional dummy spit! lol
Its what he does, he cant help himself and cant control his urges to troll along
So once in a while, on a fairly regular basis, he gets booted off this system for going off on the deep end.
Stick around, you'll see it sooner than later.
BTW: I'm the guy he speaks of. If you ever want to talk about paedophiles, let me know but we must be careful as it triggers him and he usually goes off the deep end
Personally, as you know, I think that 'r' word is thrown about way too much these days and many people find that quite offensive.
FYI - Looking at all of the weekend drama to see what happened - we had a flurry of reports and when this happens the standard procedure is to lock down threads / delete posts which get more than usual reports from regular members whose experience we rely on - they know how this community works.
As much as people think these deletions are personal biases towards a particular line of thought - they're not. More like riot control mode - there will be collateral damage to prevent more windows from being broken.
Quite often this is an old users v/s new users thread and from what I can see - in this case our favorite user who refuses to go away, brought in his own blend of interpretations.
Hopefully have some of this sorted by end of day or tomorrow.

Indie Dev Unveils FORGE Gameplay; Offers Fans a Chance to Pre-Order and Earn Other Benefits From Kickstarter Pledge
We've been telling you about FORGE just a little bit for a smidge over a month now. It's an exciting concept — a game that combines MavPR's love for fast-paced, twitchy skill-focused shooter multiplayer with our other love… strategically tearing each other to shred in MMO PvP.
We're extremely lucky to be able to work with Dark Vale Games on this project, and now we're finally able to show off how the game looks and plays (an Alpha state, of course).
Today, Dark Vale Games released their first gameplay trailer (above), a four-minute showcase of the Assassin and Pathfinder classes going head-to-head in a frantic deathmatch. This game is going to be hella fun — the difference between you living and dying at my hands will be pure skill… not your gear that you spent 20 hours grinding for while I took my kid to karate. You n00b.

In a statement on Wednesday, the KCCI expressed concern over the news reports that the revenue body has made additional taxation measures in the draft Tax Laws (Amendment) Ordinance, 2013, which has been made part of the new budget proposals for 2013-14.
The ordinance contains additional taxation measures of Rs200 billion for 2013-14. Through the draft Tax Laws (Amendment) Ordinance, 2013, the FBR has proposed to increase the standard rate of sales tax from 16 to 17 percent and imposition of two percent 'further tax' on the supplies to unregistered persons, 17 percent sales tax on sugar and proposed imposition of 10 percent withholding tax on domestic electricity consumers having monthly electricity consumption of over 1,000 units, the KCCI said.
Some other measures and anti-business actions deliberately taken by the FBR are aimed at destroying the economy, as it will encourage black economy, smuggling, tax evasion, under-invoicing and mis-declaration, resulting in decline in exports, it added.
Across-the-board increase in taxes by the FBR has come as a shock to the business and industrial community across the country.
The incompetence and the lack of will on the part of the FBR to broaden the tax base is reflected in the drastic increase in the general sales tax (GST) and withholding tax on the existing taxpayers and is a shortcut to achieve revenue targets. The measures are bound to fail and will result in widespread protests by the trade and industry.
Against the proposals of apex bodies across Pakistan, which have demanded reduction in GST to eight to nine percent, the FBR has proposed an increase in the standard rate of sales tax up to 17 percent. "This measure will result in tax evasion and discourage new potential tax payers," the KCCI said, adding that the tax collection would not increase as a result of increase in the GST rate.
The Karachi Chamber is of the view that the revenue body has no will and intention to broaden the tax base and instead bringing those untaxed individuals with massive wealth and substantial income into the tax net. The FBR is using the conventional tactics of squeezing honest taxpayers who are already in the net.
The trade and industry outright rejected the proposed measures and will not accept further taxes and draconian steps, which will harm the business climate and have a negative impact on the overall economy.
The KCCI also believes that such measures should be implemented after consultation with leading chambers of commerce and industry, the statement added.

Mars Attacks! was released in 1996 as a classic sci-fi film with a very famous cast of characters. It has remained a fan favorite in that particular genre for over 20 years. Blueprint Gaming decided to pay tribute to that movie in conjunction with Warner Bros. Consumer Products as its latest video slots.
The latest release from this UK gaming studio is a five-reel slot with three pay lines. One of its best features is five progressive bonus rounds which build upon one another. Another crowd pleaser is an Alien Invasion Gamble. This allows players to upgrade the feature along with Martian Modifiers that offer 3,125 pay ways.

Fans of the film will be able to battle through progressive bonus rounds, with a giant finale fitting of the comedy classic."
Collaboration With Warner Brothers
This is the company's fourth collaboration with Warner Bros. Consumer Products. First of all. the first three releases are:

Oh, the weather outside is frightful, and the kids are not delightful! Looking for something to help your kids calm down and relax when they are cooped up indoors because of the cold weather outside? Try this Winter Snowflake Calm Down Jar.
This relaxing project is as easy to make as they come. In a few minutes, you'll have a fun jar that the kids can shake. They will love to see the snowflakes floating down in the midst of the blue glitter gel.
It's sort of like a Christmas snow globe effect. Remember how you used to feel when you shook one of those and the snowflakes floated over a pretty scene? This is my version of that for the winter months.
January ends with National Hot chocolate Day which your kids will also love!
Let's make a Winter Snowflake Calm Down Jar!
(This post contains affiliate links for your crafting experience.) Just assemble your supplies. To make this Winter Snowflake Relaxation Jar, you will need the following.
- 1 clear jar. I used an empty shampoo bottle with the labels removed. Other options are Voss Water bottles, or any plain clean jar. Be sure it has a decently wide opening.
- Goo Gone – To remove the label residue
- 5.4 oz bottle of Blue Glitter Glue
- About a teaspoon of Silver Glitter
- Hot Water
- Small Plastic Snowflake stickers
- Blue Glitter Glue Stick and hot glue gun
If you buy a Voss Water Bottle, you will be able to skip the first step. (Amazon has a pack of 12 of them for less than $10, so if you intend to make several calm down bottles in different themes, this might be the way to go.)
If you use a shampoo bottle, like I did, clean out the shampoo and wash the bottle thoroughly several times to remove all of the contents. Then remove the jar label and get rid of the residue with Goo Gone.
Fill the bottle about 1/2 way with very hot tap water. NOTE: Cold water will keep the glitter glue from mixing with the water, so be sure the water is hot. Add the contents of a 5.4 oz bottle of blue glitter glue.
The glue will come out in a big tube if you remove the cap and you can replace it to get the last remnants of the glue in smaller strings.
Replace the cap of the water bottle and shake the bottle to mix the blue glitter glue.
Add about 1/2 of a very small tube of silver glitter. Replace the cap and shake again to mix in the silver glitter.
The blue glitter glue has glitter in it, but adding some more gives more for the children to watch as it swirls around.
Trim the snowflake stickers. I left the plastic backing on them to give them a bit more weight and to keep the glitter from attaching itself to them.
Fill the bottle to the top with hot water and place the trimmed snowflakes in the bottle. You will notice that they just sit on the top of the water.
The reason for this is because the snowflakes are so light. But they will move around inside when your child moves the bottle around.
Insert a blue glitter glue stick into a hot glue gun and seal around the edges of the top of the bottle. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
If you don't seal the bottle closed, your child may be able to open the bottle. At the least, it will make a mess. Worst case scenario, they might drink it!!
I also used the blue glitter glue stick to decorate around the gold ring that was left on my bottle after I removed the shampoo.
You will notice that the contents separate when the bottle sits for a while. That makes this project fun. The snowflakes sit up top (in the clouds!) and the glitter and blue glitter glue settle to the bottom of the bottle (like the ocean!)
But when your child shakes the bottle and turns upside down, and then upright again, they will have a lovely blue glitter effect with falling snowflakes. Also, the snowflakes will sit in different parts of the bottle, depending on how it is held.
So much fun, so relaxing and so effective at calming down your child on a cold winter's day indoors!
I can see why these calm down bottles work. I actually found it relaxing to make the project. Each time I shook the bottle, I felt a sense of relaxation.
Admin note: this post for the snowflake calm down jar project first appeared on the blog in January of 2017. I have updated the post to include a printable craft project card and a video for you to enjoy.
Snowflake Calm Down Jar for Winter Relaxtion
This winter snowflake calm down jar will be a fun activity that will really keep the kids occupied and quiet them down.
- 1 clear jar. I used an empty shampoo bottle with the labels removed. Other options are Voss Water bottles, or any plain clean jar. Be sure it has a decently wide opening.
- Goo Gone- To remove the label residue
- 5.4 oz bottle of Blue Glitter Glue
- About a teaspoon ofSilver Glitter
- Hot Water
- Small Plastic Snowflake stickers
- Blue Glitter Glue Stick
- hot glue gun
- Clean the bottle and allow to dry. Use Goo Gone to remove the label and residue.
- Fill the bottle 1/2 full with very hot water.
- Add the contents of the blue glitter glue.
- Replace the cap and shake to distribute.
- Add about 1/2 of a small tube of silver glitter. Replace cap and shake again.
- Trim the snowflakes so most of the excess backing is removed but leave the backing on the back of the actual stickers so the glue doesn't stick to them.
- Add hot water to fill the jar and place the stickers in the jar.
- Use a blue glitter stick to seal the top so that it can't be opened by your child.

Mithali Raj and Jhulan Goswami had been, for a very long time ruling the Indian cricket industry with their stunning performances and their sublime skills. It was they who maintained the audience's interest in Women's cricket and constantly turned the eyeballs of each and every individual throughout their tenure. The Indian Women's cricket team missed their presence and the country missed the time when these two brave ladies made us win each time. With the debut of Harmanpreet Kaur, India has crossed a milestone yet again. Let's look at her captainship and know more about her here:
Harmanpreet Kaur, a young personality from Moga, Punjab grew up with dreams in her eyes of becoming a famous cricket player one day.
Kaur was aware of the difficulties of being able to play cricket professionally because of the lack of craze and opportunities in Punjab.
To brush her skills up and convert her dreams into reality, Kaur moved to SK Public School, a place 27 kilometers away from Mogu, where her dreams were further appreciated and valued.
Her constant involvement in the School team, playing with her fellow mates and her ability to score successfully got her into the Punjab Cricket Association.
Her dedication towards cricket and her budding performance is what also got her involved and selected in Punjab's senior team.
Starting off as a bowler, Harmanpreet also tried her luck at batting and succeeded in the field. Each day, Harmanpreet believes in taking her game a notch up for herself and her team.
Though she was always a great player and an amazing captain, her skills were much appreciated after her first-ever T20I hundred by a woman in the Women's World Cup T20.
Post that, humdinger innings in the semifinals of the World Cup was yet another incident when she made the entire nation proud. In this match, Harman scored a whopping 171 against Australia that made her the talk of the world.
Harman, among other players, is the one who keeps the team going, with the combination of her calm and her enthusiasm.

Foreign investors are buying about 25 per cent of commercial properties offered in Melbourne's CBD, a record level, Savills Australia maintains.
Two Singapore-listed companies have splashed out a combined $226.1 million over the past month to buy four Melbourne properties and a Hong Kong-based private investor has bought an office block for $31.5 million.
Victoria University announced on Monday that it had sold its 12-level office building at 300 Flinders Street to the Singapore exchange-listed Hotel Grand Central group for $48.5 million.
The Flinders Street sale follows an unprecedented buying spree by another Singapore development company, Hiap Hoe, which snapped up three prime Melbourne sites over two months for a total of $177.6 million.
It also follows another Hong Kong-based investor announcing on Monday the purchase of Taylors House at 399 Lonsdale Street for $31.5 million.
The 10-level building is leased to Taylors Institute of Advanced Studies and was sold by listed Australian group FKP in an off-market transaction negotiated by Teska & Carson's Adrian Boutsakis.
Savills' directors Clinton Baxter and Nick Peden said the strata property at 300 Flinders Street attracted a yield of 8.3 per cent with most of the interest coming from offshore investors, particularly Singaporean and Malaysian firms.
"The sale … is a further demonstration of the exceptionally strong offshore buyer demand for high-quality CBD investment assets," Mr Peden said.
The Flinders Street property was purchased with an existing seven-year lease held by Victoria University, which pays $4,032,000 a year with a fixed 3.5 per cent per annum increase, Hotel Grand Central told the Singapore exchange.
"The proposed acquisition will enable HGC to diversify its investments in Australia to the commercial market," the company said.
Two years ago Victoria University offloaded the car park component of the same building for $28.2 million. It purchased the property from mortgagees in 1993 for $15.9 million.
Hiap Hoe's first foray into Melbourne property came early last month in a series of deals negotiated by CBRE, Savills and Jones Lang LaSalle when it bought a development site from MAB Corporation for $28.8 million.
That was quickly followed by the purchase of 380 Lonsdale Street, a commercial car park, office and retail complex, for $43.8 million.
Last week Hiap Hoe made three in a row, snapping up mixed-use retail and office at 206 Bourke Street for $105 million.
Recent Asian purchases include:
6-22 Pearl River Road, Docklands, $28.8 million.
380 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne, $43.8 million.
206 Bourke Street, Melbourne, $105 million.
300 Flinders Street, Melbourne, $48.5 million.
99 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne, $31.5 million.

Developments in technology have impacted on all of our lives – right through from the way we interact with each other every day to the way we do our shopping, pay our bills and look for jobs.
Our workplaces, too, are probably unrecognisable from just a couple of decades ago – with industries building up around the latest technological advancements and those developments, in turn, changing the way we conduct business, hold meetings and the sort of services we provide.
The impact of technology hasn't stopped there, however. Technology is not only driving innovation in business, it's also playing a role in making it safer. Here's three ways in which that is the case:
Since first being introduced in the 1970s security cameras have become a vital part of the armoury for any business. Particularly vital for retail, cameras also protect offices, warehouses and anywhere housing expensive equipment. Over time the images recorded on CCTV cameras have become much sharper, acting as a big deterrent against would-be thieves and helping to catch culprits to recover any lost stock.
When linked to an effective alarm system they can make life much harder for would-be intruders – alerting business owners at the earliest possible opportunity and connecting directly with the emergency services to ensure the swift response to any situation.
Driving and logistics can be a pretty vulnerable part of any business. The sorts of large vehicles that transport goods around for any firm are, by their very nature, tricky to handle and a big lorry, for example, has a large 'blind spot' that puts the driver at risk of collision with small vehicles, pedestrians or cyclists.
That's where technology is coming in. Increasingly such vehicles are able to use a series of cameras to provide a 360-degree image for the driver that eliminates the blind spot completely, reducing crashes while on the road and making such potentially-cumbersome vehicles easier to park and manoeuvre into tight spots – protecting the driver and the cargo. Check out www.brigade-electronics.com to see how this technology works.
Technology connects us all together and that has a big benefit from a safety perspective too. Whether it is the swift communication of a potential hazard to hundreds of staff through a quick email or a lone employee being able to contact their line manager through a mobile phone it's now much more easier for staff to be in contact in case of an issue and, for that issue to be addressed. The safety message can be delivered often and in a number of different ways in a swift and cost-effective manner thanks to technology.
That's vital in a vast organisation, where matters can be directly raised via email with the person responsible, especially since that's often someone working from a different site completely.
Drivers can also connect their phone to their in-car systems using Bluetooth technology, making it much safer to make and receive calls on the go – a vital aspect for someone who cannot avoid the need to stay in contact at all times.

Prestwick Sea Air
Prestwick Main Street
I arrived at Glasgow Airport and once I collected my bag I went out front and hopped on the bus for a short trip to the train station where I made a connection onto a train to Prestwick airport. Total cost £4.30. Finding a phone booth to let Karen know that I had arrived was a bit of a challenge in this era of telephone mobility but I was eventually successful and I was soon having a cup of tea and meeting the newest addition to the Brown family, Keira! Usually when I travel I like to brag that I am not really affected by jet lag or at least I am able to fight through it. Alas, this was not the case for this trip! I headed up for a
nap at about noon, woke for dinner, yawned for the next few hours and then headed up to read and fell into a comatose like sleep for the next 12 hours. I blamed it on the fresh sea air of Prestwick but Jimmy thought my fatigue was a direct result of a lack of alcohol intake. In any case, I am feeling more refreshed and rested than I have in weeks!

As mentioned in my previous blog posts, students learning English can be roughly broken down into three groups, namely kinaesthetic, visual and auditory learners. At Oxford English Academy it is very important for us to ensure that each type of learner is catered for in class, so in this post I will speak about auditory learners and activities that are effective for them.
Auditory learners most effectively learn by hearing, as their name suggests. Yet this extends beyond just listening exercises and taking in what their teacher says. Auditory learners also enjoy communicative exercises that involve speaking and this is the basis of our teaching methodology at Oxford English Academy. The majority of our course books and resources are based on the Communicative Approach . This approach puts emphasis on students communicating as much as possible, especially about topics that are meaningful to them and also about topics which are personalised. Below are some activities that auditory learners enjoy and which make for effective language learning.
1. Listening to podcasts or the radio can be a very effective way for auditory learners to acquire a new language. In order to make this even more meaningful and therefore engaging, it is important for students to choose topics that interest them. The British Council has over 50 podcasts for different levels that students can choose from.
2. Communicating as much as possible in English is also a great way for auditory learners to learn English. This could mean talking with other students in class, making an effort to speak to their host families and seeking out English speakers as much as possible. On an immersion programme in an English speaking country, this can be done relatively easily with students going out socially. For those not in this position, there are also many online resources and ways to connect with native English speakers.
At Oxford English Academy we make it our mission to look after the needs of all our students, be they kinaesthetic, visual and auditory learners. But it is also up to students to take ownership of their learning, so find out what your learning style is and find activities that suit you. In this way you will make learning English much more effective and enjoyable.

I fell in love with this color block tiered tulle dress from ASOS the moment I saw it. From the color combination of pastels to it's layered tulle, this dress stands out in the crowd. Talk about a statement piece! I lucked up because it was on sale for $33 and of course I love a good sale. (My favorite past time is to browse through ASOS sale items). I had to have this piece in my wardrobe.
I originally wanted this dress for an event earlier in the year but it was completely sold out. After checking back a few weeks later, there it was. My cotton candy dream dress was there for me. It was fate!
I wanted to create a look with popping hues that was unique and stylish. Elevating my layering was key to piecing my outfit together. I layered this dress over a yellow sheer organza pussy bow top and yellow silk heels. Pairing statement pieces that can be worn interchangeably is an innovative way to mix and match your pieces and create new looks out of what you already own.

Nigerian vlogger and self acclaimed media expert, Oluwa-Tosin Silverdam, some weeks ago made a video where he dubbed reality TV star, Mercy Eke as being excessively 'local' and 'annoying' in nature.
His description of the model and brand influencer sparked outrage from her fans who stormed Tosin's page to air their displeasure over his comments.
Tosin recently took to his page to share how one of these fans messaged him with "death threats", saying they know his location and will find and kill him.
Sharing his plight over the message, Tosin took to his Facebook page to write,
"This needs to stop, I've been getting death threats for over a week now just because I was outspoken about my opinion. I don't like someone doesn't mean I hate. I don't like someone doesn't mean I'm hating on the person, you don't expect me to like everyone.
There are food, drinks and other things I don't like, likewise there are people I don't like as well. There are some people who don't like me and I don't see it as a problem because it's not everyone that would like you. So because Mercy is popular now I'm not supposed to be vocal about my opinion.
Moreover, I don't like Mercy please does that affect here bank account or does that stop her from becoming a multi millionaire? My dislike towards her doesn't affect or add anything to her life. She doesn't even know I exist, so why are you guys issuing death threats because of my outspoken opinion.
I've been ignoring and deleting these messages but this needs to stop. Mercy is not God, she's also human being like me and you. Calling someone "Local" is not an insult. I posted the video out of boredom on my Tiktok page and I never expected it to go viral and she wasn't even the only one I mentioned in the video.
I'm not even bothered about these empty threats but using "I'll kill you" to troll someone is outrageous. My opinion is unpopular and I don't think it is wrong to be outspoken about it as long as it does not cause any harm or ignites violence. This needs to stop…"

A rocket or rocket vehicle is a missile, aircraft or other vehicle which obtains thrust by the reaction of the rocket to the ejection of fast moving fluid exhaust from a rocket engine. Chemical rockets create their exhaust by the combustion of rocket propellant. The action of the exhaust against the inside of combustion chambers and expansion nozzles accelerates the gas to extremely high speed and exerts a large reactive thrust on the rocket.
|A Soyuz rocket, at Baikonur launch pad.
The history of rockets goes back to at least the 13th century, and military and recreational display use dates from that time.[1] Widespread military, scientific, and industrial use did not occur until the 20th century, when rocketry was the enabling technology of the Space Age, with man visiting the moon.
Rockets are used for fireworks and weaponry, ejection seats and launch vehicles for artificial satellites, human spaceflight and exploration of other planets. While inefficient for low speed use, they are, compared to other propulsion systems, very lightweight and powerful, capable of generating large accelerations and of attaining extremely high speeds with reasonable efficiency.
Chemical rockets store a large amount of energy in an easily-released form, and can be very dangerous. However, careful design, testing, construction, and use minimizes risks.

When I first heard Uncorked, a restaurant in Rochester, Indiana that describes itself as "a beer and wine bar with a Cuban twist," had opened, I was at the same time filled with excitement and trepidation. You see, I love Cuban sandwiches and Louis Ferro, who, along with his wife Alissa, owns Uncorked, comes from a Cuban family. His parents were born in Cuba so Louis grew up enjoying home cooked Cuban meals. However, my history with Cuban sandwiches served at Cuban restaurants was, in a word, bad.
Despite this, I decided to hit the road for Rochester and give Louis and Alissa's restaurant a chance. Here, in a new easy-to-digest format I plan on using for future articles, are my thoughts on that visit.
Uncorked features a small family seating area that greets you as you first walk in off its street front location. The family area includes seating for about 24 people at a motley assortment of tables and chairs. The tables and chairs can be moved around to fit any size party.
The 21 and over bar is to the left, just on the other side of a short divider wall. The bar servicing this area is a highlight of the restaurant, something the owners obviously put some thought into. It's colorful, well-formed for a restaurant of this size and if it's meant to invite people to pull up a stool and get comfortable, it certainly does the job.
Windows that line the street side of the restaurant allow plenty of natural light to stream in, blanketing the soft seating positioned here and offering a comfortable spot to enjoy the sun's rays. For those of you seeking more natural light, Uncorked features an expansive outdoor patio area as well.
Seating was quick and our orders were taken quickly with a smile. Alissa's personality is wonderful and it can't help but rub off on the people that work for her. It took a tad long to get our food but I owe that to the care that Louis puts into his food prep.
Everyone in our party enjoyed their dishes with no one leaving unsatisfied or hungry. Our party ordered the Cuban Sandwich, Steak Sandwich, Palomilla Steak (we're carnivores) and the Shrimp Sofrito. All of the entrees are served with black beans and rice or plantain chips.
A kids menu is offered as well with the choice of a hot dog or hot ham and cheese sandwich available along with a "Peanut Butter and Guava" and "Pork and Rice Bowl" for the more adventurous ninos.
The Cuban sandwich, the reason we were all there in the first place, was served with the typical roast pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard on Cuban bread. Plantain chips, a welcome surprise, were included as a side.
Louis' Cuban didn't disappoint. Obviously honed in his family's home for generations, the sandwich was as good as I was hoping it would be and more than made up for my past experiences at other so-called "Cuban" restaurants. The Swiss cheese melded with the mustard and oozed from underneath the slightly toasted and pressed bread. The crunchiness of the bread offered enough support to keep the party of ingredients together long enough to get from the plate to my mouth.
If you've never had a Cuban sandwich, the one offered at Uncorked is as good an introduction as any to a sandwich sure to be among your favorites. It's a delight to find it offered in Rochester and should be enough to convince the town's citizens and visitors to expand their palate just a little bit and take a food journey south, right in their own backyard.
Uncorked is a beer and wine bar, after all, and they offer plenty of choices that should meet anyone's requirements. The wine list is extensive for a restaurant of its size with about 20 reds and whites to choose from along with small bottles and sparkling wines. The beer list is decent as well with various light beers, dark beers, hops forward beers and ciders/fruit forward beers available.
The only complaint was that the Megan's Mangoes cider from McClure's (located in Peru, Indiana) that I ordered was served at room temperature. My guess is this was an oversight by the server but it's worth noting.
Everyone in our party enjoyed their experience at Uncorked and were impressed that you could find genuine Cuban fare in Rochester. The dining scene in this town has yet to take off like other similarly sized towns around it but I have no doubt that Uncorked will be a part of it.
We had a chance to talk briefly with Louis as he took the time to leave his busy kitchen and come out to the dining area to introduce himself. It's obvious that he is passionate about sharing the food he grew up on with his neighbors in northern Indiana. The community of Rochester and the surrounding area is lucky to have him.
Be sure and check out their website. They have a new 360 degree virtual tour that's pretty neat and really gives you a good look at the establishment. I'm actually surprised more restaurants don't do this
Editor's Note: I didn't get any pics of the family dining area since there were people in there. The 360 degree tour is much better than anything I would have posted anyway.
Also, like them on Facebook. Alissa's sunny personality shines through on their live videos and are sure to brighten your day.

text: Sophomore outside hitter Brooke Botkin recorded five of USC's 10 kills in the final set against Colorado. (Emily Smith | Daily Trojan)The USC women's volleyball team emerged victorious from its five-set bout (25-18, 25-27, 25-19, 21-25, 15-10) against Colorado at the Coors Events Center on Sunday. The squad's five-set match record now stands at 3-1. The Women of Troy enjoyed a strong start to the fifth set, doubling Colorado's score at 10-5 and then trading points to claim it all at 15-10. The win was a tough back-and-forth affair, with flashes of brilliance from USC constantly being halted by a persistent Colorado offense. Sophomore outside hitter Brooke Botkin tallied five of USC's 10 total kills in this nerve racking decider. Colorado senior outside hitter Alexa Smith responded with four kills (three of which were consecutive) to tie the game early at 4-4. The Buffaloes' front row dished out 43 kills but were eventually unraveled by its own attack errors; this was an issue that also troubled the Trojans. In the face of a versatile and aggressive offense, Botkin stepped up during the match's dying moments to deliver three crucial spikes, one of which served as the game-ender. Although the Trojans had left Colorado having earned their fifth consecutive win, the clash was a turbulent weekend for the Trojans (10-3, 2-0 Pac-12). Following a win against crosstown rival UCLA, the Women of Troy had to handle the toll of travel. According to head coach Brent Crouch, playing away games has affected team energy levels in the past. Crouch gave his overall assessment shortly after the game, specifically citing a level of intensity. "I like how we responded to the times we were cut down a little bit," Crouch said. "[Junior middle blocker Jasmine Gross] had a career day and we came back and finished the match off strong in the fifth. It's always a good thing to do that, to turn things around when you don't play as well as you wanted. And that's a success moving forward." Crouch also acknowledged how several other conditions made the game against the Buffaloes (9-4, 1-1 Pac-12) more difficult. These included adverse reactions to high altitudes, sickness and the sweltering gym temperature. Other setbacks also stifled the Women of Troy from the get-go. Botkin expanded on how the team had to face the lack of an ideal playing atmosphere. "It's always difficult playing in Colorado's gym because they bring out everyone to come and watch, so the gym is always loud and packed with Colorado fans," Botkin said. "You feel like everyone's against you."But the Trojans came out strong in the first set. After the game had reached 10-10, senior libero Victoria Garrick served to slide the Trojans into a 6-point lead. Garrick also led the team defensively, racking up 17 digs and six assists. Maintaining this comfortable score gap, the Trojans followed up by scoring back-to-back kills thanks to junior outside hitter Khalia Lanier and Gross. Both Lanier and Gross executed four kills in the opening set. The minor problems emerged shortly after, as USC tensed up in a combination of both in-game and external hindrances. The Women of Troy fell behind 4 points on two occasions in the second frame but eventually turned the tables at 24-22. In response, the Buffaloes dialed up 5 additional points to clinch the win, 27-25. A pattern became apparent as USC reaffirmed itself with a win in the third set. The Buffaloes were able to climb within one point of the Trojans at 18-17, but kills from Botkin and Lanier gave USC the momentum to earn a string of consecutive points, and ultimately the set. "[Lanier and I are] always hungry for the ball … we love getting set," Botkin said. "We get the most balls, we get the most touches and we have a very important job of putting that ball down every time we get it so our team can score." The fourth set saw the odds sway in favor of the Buffaloes once again. Colorado won 25-21 and had led by up 6 points on multiple occasions. However, the Women of Troy erased the memory of the previous set with a .474 hitting percentage in the deciding set of the match.Freshman setter Raquel Lázaro continued to impress with her sixth double-double of the season (a career-high 58 assists and 16 digs). USC also saw 40 kills from outside hitters; Lanier tallied 21 and Botkin slated 19. The pair also added three service aces. Up next, the Women of Troy stay on the road to play No. 2 Stanford and Cal. As conference play heats up, Lanier talked about the how the new faces on the team have affected chemistry."I think coming in with a lot of new girls and expecting it to always be perfect is always frustrating," Lanier said. "But the connection [and] the chemistry out there is getting so much better. When we do get in that groove, we can be unstoppable."

text: Ashnola at The Crossing open for youth seeking treatment 04/04/2017 KEREMEOS - British Columbia youth and young adults struggling with serious substance use problems now have access to Ashnola at The Crossing, the re-opened and re-named 22-bed residential treatment program in Keremeos. Page Image Use this image as both the current Page Image and for News listings Image Caption Page ContentThe new treatment program provides individuals aged 17 to 24 years with access to specialized, evidence-based treatment, education and support tailored to their unique needs in a natural environment. The comprehensive programming includes group, individual and family therapy, therapeutic recreational activities, life-skills training, high school completion, psycho-social education and aftercare planning and support.The program was developed in consultation with regional health authority representatives, Indigenous groups, community service providers and local groups in Keremeos. It serves a unique age range of clients who are at a critical stage in their development and life path.When they are ready to return home, clients will be supported through comprehensive transition planning in collaboration with the client's support network, including families, community services, local health authorities and the Ministry of Children and Family Development, to ensure they continue to thrive after leaving the program.The program is supported by BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services, an agency of the Provincial Health Services Authority, in collaboration with the Ministry of Health. The Provincial Health Services Authority will fund the program, which will be operated by Pacific Community Resources Society. Central City Foundation, which built and owns the facility, is providing The Crossing facilities and the 58-acre rural site to the Provincial Health Services Authority rent- free.Access to the program is by referral through the client's health authority.

I look forward to seeing the positive impact Ashnola will make on the lives of the young adults and youth struggling with substance use."Lynn Pelletier, vice-president, BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services -"Together, with our partners, we will provide a holistic and therapeutic service to youth and young adults struggling with substance use concerns from across the province. We will work from a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach to help young people on the path to recovery reach their full potential."Jennifer Johnstone, president and CEO, Central City Foundation -"Central City Foundation, its donors and partners are very pleased to see the opening of Ashnola at The Crossing to provide this critically needed service for youth and families in B.C. who are struggling with the challenges of addiction. The Crossing was custom built by Central City Foundation to be home to a long-term residential treatment program for youth with addictions. We know the program will save lives."Ingrid Kastens, executive director, Pacific Community Resources Society -"We look forward to working with Central City Foundation - one of BC's oldest and most respected not-for-profits, and our long-time partners, the B.C. Ministry of Health (PHSA/BCMHSUS) to deliver this much-needed service on behalf of B.C.'s youth, young adults and families.

Instead of choosing a perfume in one of my Scentbird subscriptions this month, I decided to try a Deck of Scarlett palette. I believe this was the March/April palette with Evon Wahab. I have been super curious about these little palettes for quite a while, but didn't really want to commit to yet another subscription service. When Scentbird started advertising that they were going to be selling them within their sub service I knew I would eventually have to try one.
I finally received my packages yesterday, seems like all of my subscription bags/boxes were late for September. Geeeez. Anyway, the perfume will be another post, this little guy needs all of the attention for today.
This is how I got the look I'm wearing today:
First, I put Sandstorm in my crease and blended it to almost nothingness.
Next I added a little teeny bit of Sunshine just about that and blended it out.
Then, I added Fudge to the crease mixture and on the outer third of my lid and finally, I packed Mermaid on the rest of my lid in a cut crease kind of fashion and blended it into Fudge.
These shadows play so well with each other. They aren't patchy or stiff and they blend so nicely. I put Fudge along the outer half of my lower lash line and added a little Mermaid and around my tear duct area, I added just the smallest bit of Sunshine.
I lined my eyes with Maybelline Mastersmokey in Emerald Fury and finished the look with Lash Paradise.
Look at that!
For my lips, I lined and filled them in with Almond and added just a smidge of Coral Kisses in the center. These lip glosses shocked me.
When I was playing with them last night, I put my finger in the pan thinking I was going to have to work some sort of wax top off of it to get any kind of color payoff… boy was I mistaken. The shades are opaque and sooooo creamy. They wear well and feel nice on my lips, definitely not what I was expecting.
I used Sandstorm as a bronzer and contour and also used Halo as my highlight, on my cheeks and on my brow bone. While it's not blinding, it is still beautiful and I believe I could really switch up my eye look if I placed it on the first half of my lid instead of the Mermaid shade. I'll have to try that and let you know.
I am pleasantly surprised with the quality of this little palette. The packaging is beautiful, sleek and I love, love, love that they figured out a way to separate the cream products from the powder. This makes me so happy. C'mon Morphe. Take note. It can be done.
Have you guys tried anything from Deck of Scarlet? Which one do I need next?

Bay Area's lone GOP lawmaker is barely hanging on as counting continues
The Bay Area's lone Republican legislator is facing a serious threat in her bid for re-election.
Early vote counts after last week's election put East Bay Assemblywoman Catharine Baker ahead of Democratic challenger Rebecca Bauer-Kahan by a narrow margin. That margin has been whittled down to a mere 205 votes — 85,495 to 85,290, or 50.1 to 49.9 percent.
Elections officials had no estimate for how many ballots were left to be counted in the 16th Assembly District, which stretches from Walnut Creek and Lafayette southeast through Livermore.
The thin margin is a pronounced departure from the June primary, in which Baker, R-San Ramon, defeated Bauer-Kahan by 13 points. It is also a shift from Baker's last bid for re-election, in 2016, when she defeated her Democratic opponent by more than 10 points.
Baker is an anomaly in the solid-blue Bay Area: Since she was first elected in 2014, she has been the only Republican in either the Legislature or Congress.
Bauer-Kahan, a law professor from Orinda, was bolstered by a slate of progressive endorsers and the state Democratic Party. They worked to tether Baker closely to President Trump and national Republicans in a district where registered Democrats outnumber GOP voters by 41 to 28 percent.
Baker acknowledged the narrowing gap in October.
The race "will be much tighter because of the national dynamics," she said. "But I'm very energized by the support."
Baker said in a statement Wednesday, "Margins always narrow as more ballots are counted, as they have here, and the Alameda County and the Contra Costa County registrars are working hard to count ballots. We'll continue monitoring the count with both offices in the coming days and analyzing the outcome."
Bauer-Kahan's campaign manager, Tim Steggall, said the Democrat is "cautiously optimistic."
"There are tens of thousands of votes left," Steggall said. "The trend looks good for us."
Steggall spoke from the Alameda County elections office, where he said Bauer-Kahan's team was observing the vote counting.
"We're just ... making sure that every ballot is counted," Steggall said. "We're sitting tight until that point."
It could be a while. Although the county election offices hope to have the final results before Thanksgiving, changes in electoral rules, the growing use of mail ballots and the introduction of conditional voter registration means that the counting could extend as late as Dec. 7.

Have any questions?
Following a meeting convened by World Health Organization (WHO) in October, 2012 (at Harare) to strengthen results and accountability for women's and children's health and the health sector; a national workshop was organised in Abuja, Nigeria in April, 2013 which resulted in the review and finalisation of the Country Accountability Framework (CAF) and priority actions in line with the following thematic areas: Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS), Monitoring for result, Maternal Death Surveillance and Review, eHealth, Monitoring resources, Review process, and Advocacy and outreach.
Thus, Evidence for Action (E4A) [a five year programme (2011-2016) managed by Options Consultancy Services and funded by the UK Department for International Development (DFID)] to improve Maternal and Newborn survival contracted Preston Associates for International Development to assess Nigeria's performance with the MNCH Country Accountability Framework in 2014 against the 2013 baseline. Achievement of targets for indicators under the aforementioned seven thematic areas was specified and scored.

Welcome to Wellness
Thanks for joining me! As a Naturopathic Physician, there is nothing else I'd rather do with my day than sit with you and get to root cause of your pain and suffering. The first time people sit down with me, we take 2 HOURS so I can hear your story in your words and we begin the healing process by taking the time together to bear witness to your narrative. Naturopathic Medicine is a team sport and I not only trust but rely on you and your intuition to show up and be willing and open to address all aspects of your life. Part of the trust I hold includes believing that all people are smart enough to understand their health picture and body if provided the right education. I believe deeply that health and wellness are human rights and as a part of the Hippocratic Oath that I took, I believe educating my patients is at the foundation of doing no harm.
As a part of my practice, I use evidence-based botanical medicine and have over a thousand hours of training both as a part of the Naturopathic Medical Program at Bastyr, where I studied but also several hundred hours were done in a number of different electives. Botanical medicine is near and dear to my heart and I use it in my own life, family and practice every day. I have created dozens of botanical formulas, approved by highly-trained mentors, that effectively address and support the body's natural healing process. I love to apply what I know to the formulation process and create individual products for my patients. Whether they are teas, tinctures, bath soaks, sitz baths, lotions, creams, salves, oxymiels or medicated vinegars, oils and honey. An interesting aspect of medical herbalism is that we all ultimately have a handful of herbs that will work best with our system to support our overall health.
"One touch of nature makes the whole world kin" – Will Shakespeare
Dr. Blake Ashley Kovner ND, is a graduate of Salem College's Fleer Program where she earned her B.S. in biology with a minor in chemistry with an emphasis in the crossroads of the two, biochemistry. She went to Bastyr University in Seattle, Washington where she was trained as a Primary Care Provider in Naturopathic Medicine. During her education, Dr. Kovner underwent specialized and extensive Naturopathic training in Parkinson's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis and autoimmune disease management approaches. She also became a licensed massage practitioner at the same time. Her practice is comprised of roots-based, constitutional medicine that stems from Western Medical Herbalism, German Biologic Medicine and Ayurveda. As a Medical Herbalist, Dr. Kovner employs the art and science of individualized formulation where she makes botanical medicine for her patients, teaches them about the plants and how to grow them. While she is a specialist in nutraceuticals, Dr. Kovner believes strongly in the Hippocratic principle, "Let thy food be thy medicine." With this in mind, she teaches her patients about the gut-brain axis, empowering them from the inside out. In a similar light, she excels in drug-free pain management for almost any chronic condition utilizing functional medicine and biofeedback. She worked in New Orleans at LSU as a research associate on an NIH-funded clinical trial on the safety and neuroprotective effects of a green tea extract on people with Multiple Sclerosis. There, she co-authored two peer-reviewed articles on MS that were published in scientific journals. The first is entitled, "Cognitive Impairment in multiple sclerosis" and the second one, "Polyphenon E, Non-futile at Neuroprotection in Multiple Sclerosis but Unpredictably Hepatotoxic: Phase I Single Group and Phase II Randomized Placebo-Controlled Studies". She also participated in building an MRI database to see if brain atrophy is directly related to disease progression as measured by EDSS score and was trained as a Wheelchair Hatha Yoga Teacher and a Rasayana Yoga Teacher. Prior to practicing medicine, Dr. Kovner was a poet on the local SLAM poetry team and is the artist who created the iconic Trade Street figure called, Sax Man and had two gallery openings at AFAS's former UnLeashed Gallery.

West Vancouver is one of my favorite places to be in Canada. It's located in British Columbia and it's a place where you can enjoy nature and city life almost at the same time. With gorgeous mountains, the ocean, and many wonderful shops, this is a dreamy place to live. This house located by the sea is a real gem, with 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, stunning and spacious rooms overlooking the waves. This is a very special home, but like almost every house in West Vancouver, you'll have to write a big check to call it "home". A big check in the amount of $ 12,998,000, which I honestly think is way too much — but you have to consider the location of the property, I guess. Would you spend this kind of money for a house? Or would you build your own dream home?
I hope you enjoy this tour.
This is very well-appointed foyer. I really like the console.
Living Room
I like this "clean look". Adding color with a beautiful rug is always an interesting touch.
Mountain & Sea
The views in this house are simply enchanting! The mountains and ocean… wouldn't it be nice to sit on one of those chairs and savor the views?
Dining Room
The neutral pallet of this dining room makes this room feel serene, but I'd add more to that table, maybe some beautiful flowers to bring color and life to this room.
Beautiful choice of a dark-stained wooden table with these sleek white leather chairs. I like the look of a rug under a table, but I always wonder how can you keep it really clean. Maybe it would be easier if you don't have small children.
One thing I really like in this kitchen: the color. It reminds me of butter!
Sun Rays
I never really think of yellow in the cabinets, but it feels really welcoming. What do you think?
Open Space
Wonderful views and very well designed. You can cook, eat and watch TV within this space.
Butler's Pantry
This butler's pantry is very useful and very pretty. Love the idea of having an extra fridge/freezer.
Family Room
The ideal family room has lots of space for everyone, it's comfortable and easy to maintain. I always recommend leather couches in a family room if you have children, because they're very easy to clean.
Cozy Nights
Isn't that a wonderful place to watch a movie with your family?
Powder Room
I really like this powder room but I wish they had chosen another kind of fabric for the window, or at least ironed it. Am I too picky? 😉
Beautiful iron work.
This is a very dramatic landing area. Simply gorgeous!
Master Bedroom
Very spacious and stunning ocean views.
The great features in this room are the fireplace and the ocean view balcony.
Kids' Room
I really like these beds!
Oh, what a basement! Isn't this room fun? Take a look at these book side tables.
A wonderful place to spend your summer.
There's a reason they call it "Beautiful British Columbia".
What do you think of this house? I liked the decor and the views are just amazing. There's nothing more inspiring than seeing the ocean and mountains. But do you think this house is worth almost $13 mil? Can't wait to know your opinion. Leave me a comment telling me what you think, ok?
Thank you for being here. Your presence is always appreciated!
Have a wonderful day! 🙂

To my Dear Blogging Friends:
I'm missing your blogs so much! I'm sorry I'm not visiting you the last 2 days and commenting on your posts that I always love, but I'm not staying on computer lately since I'm studying for a test and volunteering at my son's school. I'll have more time next week.
Thank you so much for keep visiting me here and leaving your comments. I read all of them and I'm always, always happy to see you here.
Thank you, my friends!
Have a wonderful day!
Luciane at HomeBunch.com
PS: I'm feeling great and yesterday was my 1st doc appt. Everything is fantastic and I'll be 6 weeks on Sunday. 🙂
Love the openness of the house…and those vistas, wow amazing! Its grand but inviting and cozy and most definitely a family hom……so glad you are feeling well and hope you continue to feel great!
It's clearly a very beautiful house. But not my style. I am always stunned by the prices in Vancouver. I guess the setting is so amazing that it causes overwhelming popularity.
So glad you are feeling good, Luciane. 🙂
a little too big and cold for me. but the views are stunning – as is the price!
Oi. Luciana!
A casa tem uma localização super privilegiada, não é meu estilo, mas a vista é prá lá de linda.
Fiquei impressionada com o preço, mas com certeza não vai demorar muito a ser vendida.
Thanks for the up-date. You are in my heart and
prayers. This house has a magnificent view. There
is probably a lot of square footage and design of it
is absolutley beautiful. Compared to what is offered
here in So. Calif. it is worth it. No smog, too.
Oi Lu! tudo bem por aí?
Menina, essas casas que vc publica são de "matar" qqr ser humano hehehe Viver aí deve ser algo paradisíaco. Como dizia uma cliente minha que é inglesa "This is heaven" hehehehehe
See, I love a beautiful location, but this house is not so cozy as I envision my dream house. Sure it's big, but it feels like a show house. Nothing speaks to me of personality!
Perhaps it is a show setting. The views are extraordinary!
I would prefer a warmer environment. Window decoration for example. Different colors. But it has great bones!
I love the location – no surprise – but I don't love this house, not for $13 million! For that price the staging should be picture perfect, and it's not. You are so right about the curtain in the powder room – it needs to find another home; and about life needing to be breathed into the dining room…why are the sheers pulled shut – the view IS the selling feature not the sheers! The area rugs are gorgeous, but they take the eye away from the focal points of the rooms… and for a West Coast home, there's not a lot of West coast flare – where's that outside meets inside for a seamless transition? It feels like this home is fighting with its location, and there's a mish-mash of styles throughout. But would I move in? I could be convinced 😉 … and then I'd get started on restyling!
Hi Luciane,
I have been reading your blog for sometime and love the pictures you post. I lived in West Vancouver for four years, before moving to Vancouver. I am still amazed at the prices of homes in West Van, especially the ones on or with water views. Many of them are really close to the neighbours, as the lots are fairly small. Can't beat the views though. This one though, does not catch my fancy.
Olá Luciana, a casa realmente faz meu estilo, para mim não poderia ser mas perfeito uma casa linda nessa cidade que eu amo, concordo com tudo o que você diz de Vancouver. Sinto saudades enormes, mas infelizmente minha família e negócios são aqui ! Quanto a casa seria perfeita se não fosse o dinheiro infelizmente longe do que eu posso.. Beijos adoro seu blog e ainda me faz matar saudades !!!
That pool is amazing! It reminds me of the pools we had growing up for some reason. The lighting is beautiful. SUch a pretty home.
Have we started on the nursery yet? Can't wait to see what you are going to do.
Hope you are doing well, Luciane. You are in my thoughts.
So happy you're still feeling well!! Love the butter yellow open kitchen and the outdoor space…fabulous!!
Beautiful home! I love all the oriental rugs, they give the place so much character! Funny I just did a post on oriental rugs earlier in the week!
Glad you're doing well and good luck with the test, my lovely!
Meera xx
Hi Lucieane mmm 13m !!!!!!!
like the pool and the fabulous view
not exactly an intimate space though ? Love fay x
I just love the view. Its overlooking the sea. Almost every place in the house overlook the sea and even if you are swimming in your pool, you could still view the beauty of the see and the island. This is a marvelous post.
I don't think I would ever be brave enough to select yellow for kitchen cabinets but how lovely they did, it looks fantastic. Is that the neighbours pool we see through the fence? It's hard not to love a house with that many windows and with so much beauty on the other side of them. Oh and the iron on the staircase, amazing!

'An impressive debut novel' The Times
'Fantastic' Guardian
Can you ever come to terms with a missing child? Julia Davidsson has not. Her five-year-old son disappeared twenty years previously on the Swedish island of Oland. No trace of him has ever been found.
Until his shoe arrives in the post. It has been sent to Julia's father, a retired sea-captain still living on the island. Soon he and Julia are piecing together fragments of the past: fragments that point inexorably to a local man called Nils Kant, known to delight in the pain of others. But Nils Kant died during the 1960s. So who is the stranger seen wandering across the fields as darkness falls?
It soon becomes clear that someone wants to stop Julia's search for the truth. And that he's much, much closer than she thinks . . .

Evocative and haunting, with a subtle sense of menace that grows with each page
An impressive debut novel...Theorin's excellence in conveying bleak atmosphere is matched by his insight into sensitive family relationships
Fantastic... Theorin's prose is wonderfully descriptive
There is warmth in Theorin's narrative and the gradual piecing together of the story leads to an unexpected denouement
Sheer storytelling grip such as this is relatively rare. A particular strength is the evocation of locale and atmosphere here; it is masterfully done
