Is video the new blogging? Blogging will always be relevant, but incorporating video into your marketing strategy will pay dividends down the road, and what better platform to use than YouTube?! Boasting over one billion users, YouTube viewers represent one third of all internet users. Tap into this massive market by producing your own videos. Here are 3 pieces of equipment you'll need to start a YouTube channel.
First Things First
It goes without saying that before starting a YouTube channel, you'll need to have your niche dialed in, and a list of potential video topics. Having a plan in place will assure the success of your channel. Determine your viewers' interests and what video topics will most interest them.
You can start a YouTube channel with just your smartphone and window light, however, I like top-notch audio so I prefer to use a microphone. In the grand scheme of things, mics don't cost that much, and are worth the investment. You can also use lavalier mics, which are less expensive.
Ring lights are convenient and affordable, and a great way to light your videos. You'll also need some type of screencasting software for recording audio, and because the software allows you to capture your computer screen, is applicable for recording tutorials.
1. Screencasting Software
If you haven't used screencasting software before, you're in for a treat. A screencast is simply a video recording you make of your computer screen, along with audio narration. Screencasts are extremely useful for recording instructional videos, product demonstrations, tutorials, presentations, or training videos. I also use it to record the audio for my videos.
Screencasts are highly effective at relaying new concepts and ideas. Studies have shown that people retain information better when it's presented in a visual format. I've used Screenflow, my favorite screencasting software, to record a series of tutorials on my computer, and not only is it convenient, it's a lot of fun.
Screenflow is easy to use, it doesn't take a lot of time to learn the ins and outs of screencasting. You'll be a pro after recording your first video. All you have to do is activate the software, set up your microphone, and press record. It's as simple as that.
If you've been procrastinating starting a YouTube channel because you don't want to show your face, don't worry, you don't have to. I record audio and then use images to enhance my video. You can also opt to show a thumbnail video of yourself in the lower, right-hand corner of the screencast. This is a good way to ease into video recording because your viewers can still see you, but since you're not front and center, it's less frightening.
2. A High Quality Microphone For Exceptional Sound
Low-quality audio is definitely one of the best ways to make sure your video isn't viewed. Nothing is worse than audio that you can't hear or understand. For most people it's much too painful to watch. Your video may be professional, but if the audio doesn't follow suit, you're in trouble, and what a shame to ruin a great video because your audio is sub par.
Using a microphone is essential for excellent sound quality, and will mark your videos as professional. Mics are particularly useful when recording screencasts as the internal audio of desktops is quite inferior. I like using headphones when using my mic to block out distractions.
Lavalier mics, shotgun mics, and USB mics, it can get confusing. Personally, I love using my Blue Yeti mic, a type of USB microphone that's a favorite among podcasters, bloggers, and YouTubers. It's easy to set up, is made of sturdy metal, and produces crystal clear audio. You can't go wrong with a Blue Yeti microphone, and you'll be thrilled with the clarity the first time you play back your audio.
Or you can buy just the microphone itself.
3. A Ring Light
Did you know that high quality lighting can make you look better than even makeup can? It's a fact, and ring lights are a great way to make that happen. Also, called Diva lights, ring lights are popular with vloggers, videographers, and YouTubers. It's no wonder they're so popular, they're easy to set up, are affordable, and get the job done.
Ring lights emit rays of soft, diffused light, illuminating your face and surroundings with a gentle glow, whereas directional light sources cast unflattering shadows. There's not a single technique that will make you look instantly more beautiful than a flattering light source, and it's certainly worth the cost considering the pay out.
Simple to use, all you have to do is place the light directly in front of you to partake of its magic, and guess what happens to blemishes and other imperfections when your face is perfectly lit? That's right, they disappear. See what I mean about great lighting being better than makeup? Most ring lights come with a center mount to support a smartphone or camera.
Check out this ring light kit that includes a dimmable LED ring light, stand, and carry bag.

Key Points
Starting a YouTube channel can be unnerving if you're not used to being on camera, and let's face it, most of us aren't used to it. Think of it this way, branching out and starting something new is also exciting, challenging, and fulfilling. It's also not as complicated as you think.
Begin by using your iPhone and some great window light to record your first video. When you get to the point where you'd like to make your videos that much better, invest in some screencasting software, a microphone, and a ring light. Whatever equipment you decide to use, just get started!

Wild Magic (Sorcerous Origin, revised)
This is a revised version of the Wild Magic sorcerous origin from the Player's Handbook, for those who prefer their wild magic to be less wacky comedic randomness, and more consequential uncontrolled magical power.
This version of the subclass is more challenging to play and intended for games with a more serious tone, with more potential for things to go wrong but also more potential to control the chaos and corral it into useful outcomes.

Game Dev Story Lets You Run A Studio, Release Games, Layoff Employees On iDevices
October 14, 2010 2:00 PM | Eric Caoili
Breaking into the game industry and moving up the ranks to head your own major development studio used to take a lot of time and effort, but with Kairosoft, Game Dev Story, all you need is an iOS device and $3.99 to get started.
The iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad game allows you to manage your own game company. You can recruit talented workers (writers, programmers, sound engineers, etc.), train their skills, release games in a number of different genres, see your titles reviewed, and eventually create your own console!
Game Dev Story is filled with plenty of nods to real video game companies and industry figures with its fake consoles (e.g. Senga's Exodus, Mixrox SX) and employees (e.g. Jon Gameson). You can check out a five-minute preview of the title after the break.

Healthy or Else
A speculative satire about the health care industries assuming dictatorial powers in a recognizable near future society. Healthy or Else tells the story of one family's brush with the health care regime and what happens to these good people. The trends are in play; the future may not be as far away as you think.The year is 1777. As the brooding mists of war settle over a stark American battlefield, Captain Ritcherd Buchanan yearns for his native England—and for Kyrah Payne, the woman he loves. Wounded and disheartened, he eventually returns home, only to have Kyrah torn cruelly away from him and deported for a crime she didn't commit. Desperate to bring her home, he joins a band of privateers and finds himself embracing the American patriot cause—a cause he'd once sworn to defeat.All alone in a country at war, Kyrah becomes a victim of the breach between her own impoverished circumstances and the aristocratic upbringing of the man she loves. They had been best friends and confidants for more than half her life, but now she wonders if Ritcherd will ever be able to find her—or if he'll even try. And she fears that the chasm between their worlds can never be bridged.A powerful and deeply moving saga, its intricate plot expertly woven and guaranteed to keep any reader turning its pages. The only disappointment is that the book ends!The Captain of Her Heart may be the finest novel yet by bestselling author Anita Stansfield.

The model, a Trauma Resource Allocation Model for Ambulances and Hospitals (TRAMAH), assists trauma system planners in better locating their resources with respect to spatial needs and response times. It employs linear programming, a technique commonly used in operations research, to simulate different positioning combinations of trauma centers and helicopters.
Trauma systems are designed to offer much-needed medical treatment to severely injured people in a timely way. The TRAMAH researchers used Maryland, a state that pioneered the trauma systems concept, as a test region. The state has nine trauma centers and eight aeromedical depot sites.
Access Improves To Over 99%
The researchers analyzed the response to 26,774 severe injuries in Maryland between 1992 and 1994. During this period, 94.8% of severely injured residents had access to trauma system resources within 30 minutes and 70.3% had access within 15 minutes.
In contrast, for the same number of resources as the existing Maryland Trauma System, TRAMAH simulated access within 30 minutes for 99.97% - a 5% increase to nearly 100%. Consideration of such simulations could offer life-saving trauma care to hundreds more severely injured people every year.
More Ways To Improve Access
The researchers considered improving access by separately changing the number of
trauma centers or the number of helicopter depots rather than considering both
types of resources in tandem. The results were especially interesting for

Intravenous Ozone therapy is quickly gaining popularity in the western world. Intravenous Ozone therapy is the use of ozone gas to cure medical conditions. The treatment is popular in treating diabetes, cancer, heart disease, Parkinson's disease, spinal diseases and macular degeneration. Other infections and abscesses are treated using Intravenous Ozone therapy .It is often used by dentists to prevent dental cavities from spreading.
Intravenous Ozone therapy works by introducing small doses of Ozone to the body. Just like in stem cells knee treatment, small doses of ozone are injected into the problematic area. These small doses increase natural occurring antioxidants the same way IV glutathione does. These antioxidants are believed to help fight off cancer and other diseases. They can be injected the same way vitamin c IV is done. Despite this, it is wise to remember that Ozone is a strong oxidizing agent and high mixtures can be dangerous to the body and other living organisms.
What are the uses of intravenous ozone therapy?
Ozone therapy has a number of benefits to the general health of the body. Aside from curing, it also increases antioxidants which are important to the body. These antioxidants help the body fight off infections and diseases. By administering small amounts of ozone into the body, different diseases can be cured. The diseases that can be cured include:
- Cancer
- Diabetes
- Heart Disease
- Slipped Disks on the spinal area
- Macular degeneration
- Ulcers
- Abscesses.
- Dental Cavities
- Parkinson's Disease
Side effects of intravenous ozone therapy
Intravenous ozone therapy is safe and has minimal side effects. As long as the doses are regulated and moderate the body experiences no side effects. When huge doses of ozone are injected in the body they can cause blood clots. Ozone gas mixture should never be introduced via an air way because of its toxic levels and the effect it has on the respiratory area.
When using intravenous ozone therapy, ensure that ether and other derivatives are not used alongside. A trial procedure is important to study how the patient reacts to the therapy. Other effect of ozone therapy is the introduction of leucocytes in the peripheral blood which causes a decrease on the thrombocytes. The use of wrong methods of administering intravenous ozone therapy can cause gas embolism which has been known to increase the frequency of side effects. However, medical practitioners are being extremely careful to avoid these side effects.

Chapter 14 - Sudden Comeback
Translated by: Shiroyukineko
Heroes are made in their youths. Such a blessing that the Mu Rong family has a girl like this. Blessing. Tian Zhen Empires Crown Prince, who was wearing a long yellow robe and standing beside Mu Rong Wu Dis side, said, as he smiled at Liu Yue.
Tian Zhen Empire had an open-minded culture. As long as they had the ability, no one would care if they were women or men. Even women could be granted a government officials position, or even conferred the title of King.
(TLN: So theres an emperor, and there would be many kings under him. Emperors oldest son would be Crown Prince, and the rest of the sons would be Kings. A hero who has contributed many achievements could also be conferred titles, highest title is King.)
Putting away her sword, Liu Yue walked towards the Crown Prince. Although she was arrogant, she couldnt offend somebody that should not be offended.
A persons strength could only go so far, but a countrys strength was unlimited.
As Liu Yue walked nearer, the Tian Zhen Empire Crown Prince, Xuan Yuan Cheng, raised his eyebrows as he saw the silver sword in her hands, that shone under the bright sun light. Mu Rong Wu Di who was standing beside him also blinked his eyes.
Very good, you didnt embarrass me. Under the warm sunlight, an overbearing figure commented with a lazy voice, his long purple robe trailing behind him.
Third brother. Xuan Yuan Cheng looked at the person coming out from Liu Yues house as a smile bloomed in his expressions.
As for the other Mu Rong family members, seeing Tian Zhen Empires King of Yi, Xuan Yan Che, walked out from Liu Yues house, started to whisper around. They suddenly came to an conclusion. How could the person who was abandoned and isolated for so many years learn martial arts? If she was thought by the King of Yi, then it would not be surprising that she managed to become so strong in such a short time.
Previously, Mu Rong Gang had not taken much notice of the sword in Liu Yues hands because he was too furious. He only realized that the sword was actually King of Yis personal sword after Xuan Yuan Che showed himself.
It was a treasure sword that was bestowed by the current emperor.
In a moment, the smart-alecks nodded their heads one by one.
They didnt think, in such a tightly guarded generals residence, could a person just treat it as their own backyard, coming in and out as they please?
Seeing that the purple-robed guy was actually Tian Zhen Emperors third son, Liu Yue only frowned as she threw the sword back at him.
However, with a wave of his sleeves, Xuan Yuan Che had flicked the sword back to Liu Yue.
Liu Yue frowned as she caught the sword and looked towards Xuan Yuan Che.
Ill let you borrow it for a while. waving his sleeves, Xuan Yuan Che dragged the Crown Prince Xuan Yuan Cheng out of the courtyard.
Glittering sunlight shone at that purple robe, dazzling all the others present.

On average, when it comes to converting your garage, you can expect to pay between £11,000 - £25,000 for your everyday home.
However, like most conversions, each project is unique and costs can vary depending on the state of, and plans for, your garage. Here are just a few things you'll need to consider beforehand…
Is a garage conversion right for you?
The first thing you should do, before parting with any of your cash, is to properly assess whether or not this is the right way to expand your home.
Garage conversions have loads of benefits. Not only are they easy on the old bank account, they're also typically easier to acquire planning permission for. However, they do come at the expense of your garage (duh), and depending on where you live, this could be an issue. Whether or not you have a car, if parking is at a premium in your street, losing your garage could devalue your home.
You'll also need to consider what room you plan on converting the space into. You could go for…
- A family room
- Kitchen extension
- New bathroom
- New bedroom
- Home gym
- Home cinema
The sky's the limit!
Though not all of these rooms are created equal. Ground floor bedrooms and bathrooms typically bring in less value than their upstairs counterparts - just something to bear in mind if you plan on selling your home in the future.

How Can I Fill Out a FAFSA Without a Tax Return?
You can fill out a FAFSA, which is also known as the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, without a tax return in certain situations recognized by the government. We explain how you may still be able to complete and submit your FAFSA when you do not have your or your parents' tax return.
The purpose of providing tax return information on the FAFSA is to help give the government an idea of your financial situation in order to determine your need for assistance. However, there may be reasons why you don't have access to the required tax returns or have returns at all.
First, let's review whose tax information may be needed to complete the FAFSA. If you, the student, are your parent's dependent, you'll need information from your parent's tax return. If you personally have income you may also need to file an income tax return and use that information on the application.
How to Apply for FAFSA Without a Tax Return
Depending on your personal situation, how you complete the form will differ. Below we outline a few situations and the answers you should apply.
You have yet to file your return – In the past, the dates of when the FAFSA was available and the specific year of tax return information needed made it difficult for those trying to get their application in early. Luckily, the government made changes to the process in 2015 that allowed for an earlier submission date and also allowed for an older tax return to be used.
For the 2019-2020 school year, you will need your tax information from the 2017 tax year and you can submit your application between October 1, 2018, and June 30, 2020. In most cases, you will have already filed your tax return before October 1, 2018. However, if you filed an extension, your return is not due until October 15. If you need the full extension period to complete your taxes, you may not have the tax return information in time to submit your FAFSA early.
If that is the case, you can indicate "Will file" on the form and can use a late December 2017 paystub and your 2016 income tax return to provide estimates for questions about your income if it is similar. If your income is not similar, you can use the Income Estimator available when you complete the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.gov.
Once you file your return, you must update your FAFSA from "Will file" to "Already completed" and enter your final amounts.
You or your parents are not required to file a return – If your or your parents' income is below the minimum amount to file taxes, you can choose the option "Will not file" when you complete the FAFSA. However, you will need to provide any W-2, 1099 or final pay stub received for that specific year.
Your parents are not citizens and do not live the U.S. – If your parents do not live the U.S., you will be able to choose "Foreign Country" as an answer to the question about their state of legal residence. Additionally, you can select "Foreign tax return" in answer to the question of what type of tax return they filed.
Questions About the Information on Your Tax Return?
Our Tax Pros are available to help. They're dedicated to knowing the nuances of taxes and can help you understand your return.

Textbooks are a challenging item to integrate into the library collection:
- Textbooks are frequently updated with new editions.
- Textbooks are designed for one-copy per student, requiring the library to purchase multiple copies for effective use.
- The Library's budget and physical space constraints make it impossible to maintain a comprehensive collection of materials required for all courses.
For these reasons the library generally does not purchase textbooks nor requests them through interlibrary loan.

The takeover of platinum producer Lonmin by Sibanye-Stillwater was approved by South Africa's Competition Commission. The Commission however imposed conditions to limit job losses. According to the Competition Commission, the transaction which is scheduled to close by the end of 2018, did not prevent or lessen competition in platinum markets but it raised "significant public interest concerns".
To avoid the loss of over 3,000 jobs, Sibanye had to start three short term mining projects. The company also had to keep Lonmin's existing contracts with black-owned suppliers and maintain Lonmin's black ownership deal with the Bapo de Mogale community.
When the transaction was announced, Lonmin admitted it was running out of money and unveiled plans to cut 12,600 jobs. Sibanye and Lonmin admit the layoffs are necessary to save the rest of the 33,000 workers in Lonmin.
In an interview with Reuters, Sibanye's Chief Executive said shareholders might not find the Lonmin deal attractive, if the Commission imposed tough conditions.
The Competition Tribunal, which makes the final ruling on deals, will decide whether to accept the Commission's recommendations.

The new ColdPressed Frames come with a premium Acrylate Polymerization Glue to get a 1,000 lbs per sq inch of tensile strength! A separation temperature of 120^ C (250^F) to ensure that it will be resilient to any extreme temperatures.
Improved Digitizer!
To ensure that the hue of the Cell Phone LCD is not changed, we have installed a crystal clear digitizer to ensure that the colors are showing at the best resolution. The new digitizers have an improved touch electrical field sensors to ensure that the touch screen does not glitch after rapid movements.
Color Saturation
The new improved LCDs Assembly Part have a much closer color saturation to imitate the High-Quality specification.
Double Driver IC
Many are not aware that normally 2 driver IC chips are installed to control the LCD on an original specification. Our aftermarket LCDs use to come with a single driver IC as the technology was not available other than the OEM manufacturers. However, thanks to everyone's push we have now been able to also install a double driver IC for all our aftermarket LCDs This functionally is best seen while watching videos or playing a game as it requires a higher response rate from the driver IC.
Backlight Leak Fixed!
By improving the glue on the backlight, the backlight would firmly sit flush against the LCD ensuring the light won't leak out of the LCD.
LCD Flushed Properly!
Before the Raw LCD coming from Tinama have been thicker, so there was no way to prevent the LCD Display from protruding .3 mm. But now the new Raw Materials from Tinama have been reduced in size without compromising quality.

Firstly I have to thank my good friend Jorrin from Holland as without him I may have not heard of Volbeat until much later on my life so Jorrin thanks very much mate!
The first time I heard Volbeat I knew I'd be a fan for life and between us Jorrin and I have introduced their very unique blend of Johnny Cash and Metal also known to some as Elvis-Metal to quite a number of friends.
My first live Volbeat experience was in 2009 at the Islington Academy, it was my birthday gig and I got absolutely wasted however I enjoyed every single sweaty second of that show and I couldn't wait to see them again. This has however proved to not be as easy as it sounds what with gig clashes (yeah I know hardly something to moan about) then last year's cancellation due to Michael's health however I found that this all simply added to my excitement preceding the recent show at the Kentish Town Forum. First of the increase in venue size is testament to the bands rise in popularity in the past two years however extensive touring with Metallica's not gonna harm your fan base is it.
I must admit at this point that I was actually unaware who was supporting Volbeat at this show until approximately a couple of hours before the show when my friend mentioned it in the pub, I was very happy by this news and got even more excited as I really like Black Spiders and their no bullshit approach to music.
Black Spiders hit the stage and the venues atmosphere lit up like a metaphorical Christmas tree, catching these guys form the first set of stairs back from the main flooring area I had a good view of the audience jumping about to opening track "Stay Down" they guys proceeded on with "KISS tried to Kill Me" "Stick it to the Man" before getting to my favourite track of theirs "St Peter" the set also included the now expected audience participation of chanting "Fuck you Black Spiders!" whilst politely saluting them with your middle finger however I must admit I was having so much fun I forgot at which point this happened.
Full Set list for Black Spiders: Stay Down, KISS Tired To Kill Me, Stick It To The Man, St Peter, Wolves, Just Like a Woman, Blood Of The Kings.
Rating: 8/10
Anyway time for Volbeat and I have moved forward to nice distance from the stage probably about 8 or 9 deep in from the barrier, close enough to be in the thick of it far enough away to get crushed. Volbeat opened up their what proved to be mammoth set with "The Human Instrument" from their 2007 album "Rock the Rebel/Metal the Devil" (which is indecently the first album of theirs that I ever heard) and they were as tight as I remember them from 2009.
The crowd were enjoying the show immensely as the guys poured out the tracks including my personal favourite "Sad Mans Tongue" (a song which coincidently almost got me lynched during an impromptu DJ set at an undisclosed venue as not one of metal heads in the room had heard it before and thought the intro sounded like a country music track J) before I knew it the band had played fourteen songs and were leaving the stage (remember the bit I said about mammoth set) so I set what remained of my strained vocal chords to task shouting for an encore and wow what an encore a total of another five songs including their now infamous cover of "I Only Wanna Be With You" to which they mashed in their own track "Boa" before finishing off with "Pool of Booze, Booze, Booza" from the band's first album from 2005 "The Strength/The Sound/The Songs" all in all a fantastic night of music from two awesome bands both of which I will go and see every time they are in town and you all should too!
Volbeat full set list: The Human Instrument, Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood, Heaven nor Hell, A Moment Forever/Hallelujah Goat, The Mirror and the Ripper, Mary Ann's Place, Sad Mans Tounge, A New Day, Evelyn, Radio Girl, The Garden's Tale, Rebel, Monster, 16 Dollars, Still Counting.
Encore: A Warriors Call, Fallen, Thanks, I Only Wanna be With You/Boa, Pool of Booze Booze Booza.

Wednesday, June 17, 2009
Yes, it was a stressful night at work because there was a computer update that took 5 hours. So no computers from 1 am to 6 am. So everything was written down on sheets of paper, which I've never done before. And then when the computers came back on at 6 am everything had to be backlogged. So you kind of felt like you did everything twice. It was a long evening and I was glad to leave–unfortunately I left about a half hour later than normal because of all that, and then I also ran into traffic on the way home. So by the time I had my toast (good ol' standby!) and caught up on my blogs, I'm heading to bed MUCH later than normal. But if I don't blog when I get home, I never have time before work.
While going through my blogs I happened upon this article in my CNN news blog, stating Melissa Etheridge's pro-medicinal marijuana stance. What do you think about this? I TOTALLY think that medicinal marijuana should be legalized. It's a drug like any other drug. If it provides appropriate pain/anti-nausea relief then it should be available without the worry of being arrested. I mean, morphine is an opiate, and has been used like FOREVER, and we don't even question that. It's just when people hear "marijuana" their brains are just tuned to think BAD because of all the negative publicity it gets with drug use. Arghh…what is wrong with this nation??!! What is YOUR opinion? Go Melissa!
Okay, bed here I come. I'm sure I'll be asleep in about 30 seconds! One more day and then a mini-vaca! FIVE days off!

text: IRNA | Hosein Ali Rashky: A senior aide to Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has visited Syria's Eastern Ghouta on the outskirts of the capital Damascus. Velayati on Wednesday visited Eastern Ghouta and secret underground tunnels used by Takfiri terrorists in the almost fully liberated region near Damascus. He also met with military commanders there. Velayati reaffirmed Iran's support for Syria and the nation's resistance against terrorists and underlined the necessity of further expansion of bilateral ties to counter the threats of the US, Israel and their regional stooges.

There are times when I reach for my phone and my thumb automatically opens up Instagram. I scroll through a few photos before thinking, "Wait. What did I get on my phone for again?"
We are so easily distracted... and so connected. Do you also feel pressure to give an immediate response to emails, calls and text messages? Add these two together and if you are trying to get any real work done, say goodbye to your productivity.
You have to find a time of day when no one will interrupt you. For me, that's been waking up at midnight (aka: a couple hours before work). For my mom, her uninterrupted time was after she put us girls to bed. For my colleagues, it's after the 11 pm newscast when the demands for the show are finished.
I find working intensely without interruptions for a couple hours a day creates great results. It takes discipline, but it's worth it.
Carve out time to work without interruption.

Caroling Fortune Cookies
Darlene Brenden's devised a lucky way to greet the season—with her holiday fortune cookies! "I make regular fortune cookies, then tuck yuletide wishes inside. They make a fun dessert for a Christmas party," she pens from Salem, Oregon.
Total TimePrep: 20 min. Bake: 10 min./batch + cooling
Makes1 dozen
- 12 strips of green and red glossy paper (about 5-1/2 inches x 1/2 inch)
- Nontoxic black marker
- 2 egg whites
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- 1/3 cup cake flour
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
- Print Christmas carol titles or other holiday wishes on paper strips with marker; set aside.
- In a small bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add sugars; beat well. Stir in the flour, oil, butter, vanilla and salt until smooth.
- Drop 6 tablespoonfuls, about 3 in. apart, onto a greased and floured baking sheet. With the back of spoon, spread each into a 3-1/2-in. circle. (Bake only six cookies at a time.) Bake at 300° for 6-8 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Loosen cookies from baking sheet. Bake 1 minute longer to soften. Remove one cookie at a time, leaving others in the oven (cookies must be warm to shape). Slowly fold cookie in half; insert a fortune. Fold in half again, bringing points together. Place in muffin cups to cool and hold shape. Repeat with remaining cookies.

We [Arab leaders] brought disaster upon...Arab refugees...bringing pressure to bear upon them to leave [Israel in 1948].... We have rendered them dispossessed... accustomed them to begging...[lowered] their moral and social level....We exploited them...in the service of political purposes.

Mahmoud Abbas(Abu Mazen), former prime minister of the Palestinian Authority, Wall Street Journal, 6/5/2003

With Mosul the last major city to be invaded, ISIS is expected to soon have little to no remaining territory. US officials have made clear that this won't impact their deployment to Iraq, and talks are now said to be ongoing to cement that as a reality.
After the last US occupation, Iraq was eager to be rid of as many of the occupation troops as possible. This time, the US is arguing that any situation which doesn't include an open-ended US military presence will end up with a new insurgency cropping up, and US officials are insisting that the Iraqis agree.
Of course, the expectation is that as soon as ISIS loses all its territory it will just go back to being an insurgency anyhow, and the presence of US troops isn't going to impact that at any rate, beyond whatever agreements are made to have them involved in defending sensitive targets.
Ongoing talks are mostly centered on what form the permanent US deployment will take, and if the Bush-era talks are to be any indicator, the focus is likely to be on ensuring that US forces have absolute legal immunity for anything they do in Iraq.

Friday, November 23, 2012 – Calgary, AB (ISN) – The University of Saskatchewan Huskies mounted a spirited comeback, battling back from being down 2-1 as they defeated the Mount Royal University Cougars in five sets, 3-2 in Canada West men's volleyball action Friday in Calgary.
Bryan Fraser led the Huskies with 18 kills, including four in the final set as Saskatchewan halted a three game losing skid, upping their record to 4-5. Mount Royal meanwhile has now dropped three in a row and fall to 4-5 with Friday's loss.
Colton deMan led the Cougars, pouring down 19 kills, while teammates Trevor Langvand and Jordan Parkin each tallied 14. Mount Royal surged out of the gate on Friday, as the trio of Langvand, deMan and Parkin each put away three kills in the opening set as MRU jumped out to a 1-0 lead winning 25-20. The two teams would play a tight second set, with neither side giving an inch as they played sideout ball from 6-6 up to 11-11, again tying at
Paul Thompson and Fraser would start to come alive for the Huskies as their hits started to find the hard wood as Saskatchewan would start to pull away rattling off five straight points to 23-17. An MRU hitting error would end the second as the Huskies tied the match at 1-1 winning 25-18. The see-saw battle would continue in the third, as Mount Royal would regain their composure easily building an 18-11 lead. Jordan Parkin would
finish the set off for MRU, crushing a ball from Marcus Ernewein as the Cougars regained the lead 2-1 with a 25-20 set win.
The resilient Huskies wouldn't go away in the fourth, as they rattled off sixth straight points to push their lead from 12-9 to 18-9 in the blink of an eye. A kill by fourth-year Kinesiology major Braden McLean and back-to-back hitting errors by the Cougars would give the Huskies second life as they escaped with a 25-17 win, tying the match at 2-2. Up 4-3 in the fifth and deciding set, Bryan Fraser would start to take over for the visitors, putting away three consecutive kills amongst Cougars hitting errors to extend the lead to 10-5 Huskies.
A mini-rally would see the Cougars run off three straight on the scoreboard to tie the match at 12-12 – but a Cougars attacking error late and a final kill by Jordan Nowakowski would seal the match for the Huskies as they completed the comeback winning the fifth set 15-13 and match 3-2. Libero Adam Woods was strong for the Cougs' digging 17 balls, while Matt Busse led the Huskies with 11 of his own.
The two teams will meet again Saturday at Mount Royal's Kenyon Court at 5:00 p.m.

BELIZE CITY, Thurs. Aug. 23, 2012
In the recent weeks, the nation has been faced with shocking reports of sexual abuses against young people, including the case of a 14-year-old from Guatemala who had been held against her will by a businesswoman, who was slapped with a mere $10,000 fine after being convicted on human trafficking charges, here in Belize for literally enslaving the girl for sexual exploitation by grown men.
On adjournment of the Special Sitting of the House of Representatives this afternoon, Belize Rural Central area representative for the Opposition People's United Party, Dolores Balderamos-Garcia, spoke out against sexual predators who exploit children here in Belize, and also spoke out about allegations that have come to the fore against the Baptist preacher and principal, Norman Willacey.
In response to her comments, Prime Minister Dean Barrow informed that the Commercial Sexual Exploitation of Children (CSEC) Bill is due to be introduced in Parliament in the next two weeks or so.
Balderamos-Garcia agreed that measures for the prevention of commercial sex exploitation of children are extremely important. She also condemned the Baptist management for taking too long to act on the Willacey case, underscoring that "…we can't afford any kind of delay or foot dragging on such issues."
Too much time had passed between the reporting of the incident last week and Willacey's suspension, which only occurred yesterday, Wednesday, declared Balderamos-Garcia, a former minister responsible for Human Development.
"It is a matter that we need to put on the table for national attention and call for immediate action and immediate suspension if there is a repeat of this kind of situation," she said. "The protection of our youth and minors is of extreme importance and should not be put on any kind of backburner…," she added.
Education Minister Patrick Faber, Collet area rep for the ruling United Democratic Party, agreed.
"I say without hesitation, we join with all those who have indicated that they believe that the Baptist management has indeed disappointed us in terms of the swiftness of how they are handling this situation," Faber said.
It was not the Ministry of Education's fault, he went on to clarify. According to Faber, when the incident was reported to the Ministry, it moved quickly to contact the Baptist management to say that the report had been made and that they should move to deal with the matter accordingly.
They spoke, he said, "in very strong language to the management and church yesterday to say we really needed a response publicly by the close of business Wednesday."
Faber said, "…I am happy to report they have complied."
The management had reported that, in line with the relevant school/education rules, the Baptist management has suspended Pastor Willacy for 15 days, pending an investigation. Faber said that there must be due process in carrying out the investigation, and he asked Belizeans and the Belmopan community to be patient.
He assured them, however, that when the Baptist High School opens on Friday, August 24, Willacey will not be there as principal.
Faber, furthermore, frowned upon those managements of schools "who have sheltered some of these predators" and appealed to parents to realize that it is very important to report cases to authorities and deal with them appropriately, to ensure that those who perpetrate abuses are labeled and marked in such a way that they can never again have the kind of position that would allow them to interact with youth in a way that will damage them.
Faber said that while it is not his place to tell the Baptist management how to deal with the Willacey case, since it appears that he has admitted to "messing around" with his 16-year-old student, a resignation will not be tolerated as a sufficient response.
The Education Minister spoke today of another case in which a high school teacher is accused of fondling children.
"I want to make it clear [that] those engaged in that kind of behavior cannot and will not be tolerated by Government and the Ministry of Education," he commented.
Persons in the education sector who sexually violate young persons, said the Minister, should not be just allowed to resign—as has been common practice; but swift and stern action should be taken against them to have them marked for life.
Whenever such incidences occur, said Faber, "it is important for them to be marked so they cannot pop up at another institution."
The Teaching Services Commission, said Faber, can label and mark these persons so when their application comes up for employment, "that can be turned down outrightly, because those persons have breached the confidence of our education system."

Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Chicken Burritos
I love chicken burritos, especially from Chipotle. However, the burritos don't love my waistline! Ha Ha. What I love about these Burritos is that I was able to make them a little healthier and still feel like I was indulging in a full fat burrito. For those who follow weight watchers, I know 11 pp is on the high end but compared to a traditional burrito I must say that is pretty good! They were a hit and very simple to make!
Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Chicken Burritos
Makes 4 Burritos
Cal 485, Carbs 50.7, Fat 14g, Fiber 5g, Protein 29.5
16 oz. boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 oz. reduced fat cream cheese
2 tbsp. chili powder
2 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 cup enchilada sauce
1/2 cup reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup fat free re-fried beans
1 can rotel
4 large flour tortillas
Spray the bottom of your crock pot with non stick cooking spray. Place chicken in the bottom and sprinkle with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Top with 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce and cream cheese. Cover and cook on low 4 hours. Remove chicken mixture. Shred and place in a large bowl. Mix well.
Assemble burritos by spreading chicken mixture down the middle of the tortilla. Add in your re-fried beans, shredded lettuce, and any other toppings of your choice. (I used some light sour cream) Fold burritos and place into a baking dish. Pour remaining enchilada sauce over the burritos and sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
Broil for 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Enjoy!
