Jazz Up Your Iced Coffee by Turning It into a Cookies and Cream Slush with Nestlé Coffee-MateOctober 4, 2019
- Pamela CortezWords
- Mylene ChungPhotography
- Katherine JaoStyling and Recipe Development
Everyone loves a good slush. They are classic, easier-to-make versions of milkshakes but achieve the same creamy indulgent consistency. There are vanilla, chocolate and strawberry, all classic flavors, but a coffee slush is a more adult take on the concept. Icy and cool, it's one of the best ways to beat the Manila heat, and a wonderful treat for yourself during a busy day at work.
Today at Pepper, we've made a creamy coffee slush, with the addition of cookies for a chocolatey finish. These not only add more sweetness, but a textural crunch to the slush, adding just a little bit of fun to your adult, caffeinated beverage. Simple, but delightfully indulgent nevertheless.
All you need is some of your favorite cookies or cookie sandwiches, to add whichever flavor of cookies you like. Make sure to add the crisp kind, as chewy or soft cookies will only make the consistency more sludgy rather than adding a bit of crunch. The rich creaminess of NESTLÉ COFFEE-MATE ties all the flavors together, to make a drink you'll start taking to work everyday.
Cookies and Cream Slush with NESTLÉ COFFEE-MATE
Total Time: 10 minutes
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: Cookies and Cream Slush
- 1/2 cup hot water
- 1 cup NESTLÉ COFFEE-MATE
- 2 tbsp NESCAFÉ CLASSIC
- 8 pcs cookies
- 1/4 cup corn syrup
- 2 cups ice water
- more cookies, for garnish (crushed and whole pieces)
- whipped cream, for garnish
Procedure: Cookies and Cream Slush
- Dissolve NESTLÉ COFFEE-MATE and coffee powder in hot water.
- Transfer into a blender. Add in the rest of the ingredients.
- Blend into a slush. Transfer to glasses.
- Top with whipped cream and cookies. Serve.

*I think I blogged about this before…. but then, it happened again today… so, I blogged for another time..
The IT team is at it again. Goddamn motherfuckers. Hell, they're so stupid that calling them a pig would be an insult to the pigs.
Why? Here's why. Today, one of our lab computers was infected with a very dangerous virus, which could make our monitors explode and clog up the sewer system. The IT team, needless to say, realized that… and immediately reacted.
What did they do? Instead of cleaning up the virus, they sent out a lot of mails.
1) an email to their boss to inform him that one of our lab computers was infected with the deadly virus.
2) an email to US headquarters to alert them we have a virus here.
3) an email to my boss, that we have a virus in our lab, need to find out which.
4) an email to all the lab users, to look for the purported virus infected computer. They gave us an IP address and a network ID.
Fine. We complied and found the network point alleged to be connected to the infected computer. But by the time we did that, they have already escalated the issue to the Vice President level… and they were asking us to provide a written statement – WHY ONE OF OUR COMPUTERS WAS INFECTED WITH A VIRUS? And before we managed to even clean up the infected system, we started to receive shitloads of emails asking for an explanation for the infection.
The situation suddenly became chaotic and everyone became paranoid about ONE FUCKING COMPUTER INFECTED BY A FETID VIRUS. As if they've never seen a virus before. Hello???? It's the same thing clings up inside your ass.
I mean, what the fuck was that all about?? They're putting the blame on us end users for the virus infection. As if it was our fault. How the hell could that be?? What the fuck can we do if a virus decides to invade our PC?? We update our virus definitions daily and patches the stupid Operating System every time the moon goes full. What else did we do wrong? Ma kanneh. I really could not understand.
Then what does the spastic IT team do? Scratching their balls sending emails?? Maybe, one may lambaste me for the lack of understanding, ok fine. But shouldn't the IT team be the one who is responsible to secure our network system?? If yes, then why are they asking my team to answer this question – WHY DID THE VIRUS INFECT OUR PC??
This is not right. Definitely not right.

The most purchased product in our store is the Clenbuterol/Cytomel Stack. Combined, these 2 supplements will help you burn fat like no other product. This was first discovered by athletes and professional sports, until even many celebs used this combo to radically slim down. The problem overall is to find a reliable source that will ship the real products out, no herbal substitute, and without prescription. This is no more a problem for you as you can order this phenomenal Clenbuterol/Cytomel Stack with us now. Stacking them both, together for 2-4 weeks, then stopping for 2-4 weeks, and repeat, is THE FASTEST way to burn fat and lose weight of anything on the market today, forget about Phentermine, ECA Stack, Hoodia and Xenical Clenbuterol & T3 Cytomel stacked together will outperform all other products.
Combine the dosage information above for both products. Usually you can stay on a lower dosage of each when combined. You can take both products for 2-4 weeks, then stop and rest for the same time and start over again. Or you can alternate between every product every 2-4 weeks.
Ketotifen 1mg tabs (Ketotifen Fumarate). When using Clenbuterol the body''s beta-2-adrenergic receptors down-regulate soon, only making Clenbuterol a useful fat burner for 2-4 week cycles. In simpler words: The body will adjust and down-regulate the thermogenic Clenbuterol effect. This usually begins gradually after 2-3 weeks of Clenbuterol intake. When implementing a drug like Ketotifen the rules are broken, allowing to use Clenbuterol for extended periods (not recommended).
2 tab/day is the recommended Ketotifen dosage, to be started after around 2 weeks of Clenbuterol intake and must be taken along. Ketotifen is NOT a fat burner itself, but helps to continously use the Clenbuterol, without the necessity of a recovery break. Ketofifen can cause drowsiness so it is advised to use Ketotifen before sleep. Note that prolonged use of Clenbuterol HCL may lead to serious health conditions. Between waiting periods of Clenbuterol, or Clen-Cytomel Combo Cycles, you can also use the Ketotifen to prepare yourself for a new round by using Keto a few times before you start over again with your main Cycle. It will help you to reset your receptors from the Clenbuterol, so it will be fully effective again.

In the English University City of Oxford they have just celebrated the 50th anniversary of Dr Roger Bannister running one mile in under four minutes.
It was an achievement that made headlines throughout the world in 1954. Many people thought the record could never be beaten but, 50 years on, those times that made the headlines have long been eclipsed and consigned to the archives.
It's the same story in all sports that race against the clock and especially in grand prix motorcycle racing. As speeds increase and laps record are decimated many are asking the question - where will it end?
The MotoGP teams and riders arrive at Assen this week to pit their technical skills and riding ability against both the fastest and longest circuit in the 2004 MotoGP calendar knowing, weather permitting, that the lap times will continue to plummet in dramatic style. Already this season the likes of Valentino Rossi and Sete Gibernau have smashed old lap and pole setting records set just last year, with contemptuous ease.
The magnificent day's racing in Barcelona was the perfect example of just how much progress has been made in such a short space of time. The weather may have been perfect but the Circuit de Catalunya was certainly bumpier than the previous year, thanks to the constant pounding it gets from Formula One cars testing throughout the year. It made little difference to the MotoGP boys.
In qualifying, Sete Gibernau simply obliterated Rossi's pole time from the previous year by an incredible 1.331secs, while the first 12 riders also lapped inside last year's pole time.
It was the same story in the 23 lap race: Once again it was Gibernau destroying Rossi's old lap record by 0.856secs, while Rossi's race winning time was 18.503secs faster than Loris Capirossi's winning pace the previous year - not far from a second a lap quicker.
So is it down to sheer extra top speed or a combination of improved four-stroke technology, tyre wear and the riders' ability to get more and more out of the four-strokes?
The top speeds have increased with Repsol Honda's Alex Barros closely followed by the Camel Hondas of Max Biaggi and Makoto Tamada toping the speed charts in Barcelona at 339.4 km/h last weekend. Last year Ducati's Loris Capirossi was fastest through the speed trap, but at a now rather modest sounding 325.9 km/h.
However, sheer top speed, unlike size, really does not matter as much as you might imagine when it comes to actually crossing the finish line first. For various reasons, not one of that fastest leading trio through the speed trap in Barcelona actually finished on Sunday's podium, while race winner Rossi could only muster a mere 329 km/h and was 14th fastest. The answer is a lot more complex than just top speed.
Getting the complete package of suspension, gearbox ratios and of course tyre selection is generally how races are won. Grabbing pole position in the last couple of minutes of the final qualifying session may get you a new watch but it doesn't automatically win you races.
In that marvellous Master Class of the Nineties press conference at Barcelona - with Wayne Rainey, Kevin Schwantz, Mick Doohan and Alex Criville - the four world 500cc champions were asked for their opinions on modern day stars and Valentino Rossi in particular.
They all agreed that the riders that stood out were those who could ride the 990cc four-strokes when the tyres had gone off and the bike was slipping and sliding in every bend.
They suggested that any rider good enough to earn a MotoGP berth should be able to qualify well on special sticky tyres. What sorted the men from the boys was the ability of the top riders to get quicker and quicker the more the bike started to slide underneath them. Results this season would certainly support the experts' theory.
While technology continues to push the parameters further and further, those lap times will continue to drop. Two factors might just slow down or even bring a halt to the record breaking; the manufacturers and the circuits.
The builders of these modern day four-stroke machines are concerned about the speed and consequently safety of their products. It looks certain that the capacity will be reduced during the next couple of years, which may bring a temporary halt to the record breaking - but for how long? Give those engineers around two years to find the solution to both match and then destroy the existing lap times established by bigger capacity machines.
But just how much faster can the bikes go on circuits that are pushing their safety considerations to the limit of their budgets? Surely there will come a time when the bikes will outgrow existing circuits that will just not be able to cope with more and more top speed.
With crowds averaging over 110,000 for every race, no circuit will want to lose their biggest pay day of the season - but money will have to be spent on more and more safety considerations as the bikes get faster and faster and consequently something will be done.
So where will MotoGP be in 50 years time. People would have intimated you'd been out in the sun too long if you'd suggested to them 50 years ago that bikes were touching 339 km/h down the Barcelona straight...
So in 2054 could we witness 200 km/h lap speeds, 400 km/h top speeds and a mile run in under three minutes? It may sound complete nonsense but 50 years is a long time in the modern world.
Just ask Roger Bannister.

Raise your hand if you LOVE banana bread? I don't think I've ever met anyone who doesn't. Personally its one of my favourites and I could literally down a whole loaf and then feel bloated and gross and go nap for 4 hours. THIS recipe however will change your life because you don't have to feel guilty for having more then 1 slice. It literally only has 5 ingredients, it does not have any flour so its gluten friendly, and did I mention its delicious? I hate the word moist so much but thats the only way I can describe it. Its so MOIST.
You'd think without the flour and sugar it would taste like a pile of shit but its honestly better then any other recipe I've tried (not to toot my own horn or anything). I think its all the bananas and maple syrup for sweetener that make it so damn good. Definitely going to be making it again and again. It was a huge smash with my brother and my boyfriend and whoever came over and stole a big chunk without telling me… *cough* grandma *cough*
Anyways like I said its only 5 ingredients, takes less then 10 minutes to whip up and about 25-30 minutes in the oven. I'm super duper excited to share this recipe with you guys because WOW is it tasty. I ate it for breakfast lunch and supper the day I made it :). Once you try it, you'll be telling the whole damn world about it. So here is the wonderful recipe!
Prep time: about 5-10 minutes, depending on how shitty your blender is (mines crap)
Bake time: 25-30 minutes
What you'll need:
- 3 medium ripe bananas
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp baking soda (or 2-3 tsp of baking powder)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- Optional: choc. chips (highly recommend, I use dark chocolate chips or dairy free ones)
How to:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Slightly grease your 9 x 5 inch loaf pan if needed.
- All you do is literally combine all the ingredients EXCEPT chocolate chips, into a blender. If your blender sucks like mine… I mixed everything in a big bowl prior to blending and mashed the bananas a bit. But if you have a bomb blender then you won't need to do this.
- After all its all mixed up in the blender, add the chocolate chips and stir them in.
- Pour into a loaf pan and add in a few slices of banana and chocolate chips for topping. Then toss er in the oven for about 25-30 minutes!
Seriously such an amazing recipe I'm so obsessed with it. You can play around with the recipe, add peanut butter, maybe some cinnamon, whatever floats your boat. Try not to eat the whole loaf right off the hop but I mean… it happens.
Let me know what you think!

13th Cinema Verite Officially Announces its Sections
We are proud to announce the 13th "Cinema Verite" Iran International Documentary Film Festival international sections

Monday 23 December 2019 - 18:00
Veton Nurkollari, Jury Member and Art Director of Dokufest from Kosovo
Other Countries Feel Jealous of Iranian Cinema
Veton Nurkollari is from Kosovo. He is the art director of the Kosovo Film Festival (DokuFest), which has been held for 18 years. The festival is one of the largest festivals in Kosovo with 290 films this year, with more than nine different screening venues. There are many panels and meetings in the festival, taking place over nine days. However, the festival looks very creative and innovative. This is the first time the artistic director of the DokuFest has come to Tehran and he is very happy about it.
"I knew this festival very well from years ago. Many Iranian films have participated in our festival and various filmmakers have come to attend it. Last year we had a special section of Iranian cinema at the festival, which, despite its small size, was welcomed but we have shown Kiarostami's works over and over again. Of course, we have also shown the work of documentaries such as Mehrdad Oskouie and had his presence too. I always wanted to come here and hopefully I'm invited this year! In my opinion, this festival is very organized and more importantly welcomed. For me, the value of a festival is when it comes to the audience, how many people come to watch films. This is a sign of the success of a festival.. Another important factor that I saw at this festival was the very strong presence of various media. I've been to a lot of festivals in my life, small, big, different countries and continents but maybe in Cannes and Berlin is like Cinema-Verite that all the different media are interested in covering a cinematic event. I am totally impressed by the audience, the filmmakers and the films here." He said.
"Your country's culture is very rich and cinema is an important part of your culture. Iranian films show this, too, from the streets to the countryside. On the other hand, the number of films produced in Iranian cinema is very high. Many countries do not produce one-fifth of Iranian cinema. This is when Iran has a challenging international situation. Then you see three Iranian films at the same time winning awards at IDFA, which is amazing and a good sign. Other countries feel deeply jealous of Iranian cinema." He continued.

From Otherwords: http://www.otherwords.org/articles/three_strikes_against_apple
There's too much blood on its phones, laptops, and tablets.
By Peter Certo
June 27, 2011
In college, I considered my Apple laptop a faithful, effective, and occasionally even fun machine. A year past graduation, this constant companion to late nights spent studying, working, or wasting time has aged into a decrepit device. Like the old Windows hourglass, its colorful pinwheel cursor consistently heralds interminable delays.
Similarly, my prehistoric mobile phone frequently freezes, drops calls, or prematurely runs out of battery power. Even in those treasured moments when it operates at capacity, it lacks the touch screen, email, and Internet capabilities today's savvy consumers supposedly demand. By all indications, I'm ripe for an upgrade to a new MacBook, iPhone, or iPad.
Here's why I'm taking a pass.
Apple, like most other electronics companies, makes liberal use of an ore called columbite-tantalite — widely known as coltan — whose electrical retention properties improve the battery lives of electronic devices. While Australia is the world's largest coltan producer, suppliers for Apple and its competitors often prefer to buy their coltan at lower cost from mining operations in war-ravaged eastern Congo.
The money from these transactions rarely reaches the miners themselves. Rather, it's funneled to Rwandan- and Ugandan-backed rebel groups inside the Congo who control the mines and use the revenues to fund their operations in the world's deadliest conflict since World War II. Promises by the Congolese government to shutter such mines and by Apple to scrutinize its supply chains have rung ineffectual and hollow.

text: Money merely represents value; but it has come to symbolize so much more. Here, the Douglas County Public School District created a voucher system that gives taxpayer money to private and/or religious schools. The trial court held it was unconstitutional. The court of appeals reversed based on 4 conclusions: 1) courts may not inquire into the extent of religious instruction, 2) religious institutions are not directly benefited, 3) parents directed the funds, and 4) the system gave parents neutral funding choices that maintained the free educational system. The court also held Plaintiffs lacked standing to enforce a statute. It avoided deciding whether Colorado's constitutional religion provisions were coextensive with the First Amendment. The dissent concluded the system was a pipeline of public money to religious schools, thus violating Colorado's Constitution.

As we age, we usually stoop more and more—sometimes as a result of osteoporosis, oftentimes as the discs in your back and neck begin to dehydrate.
This article in Health gives 10 great ideas on what you can start doing now to make sure you have perfect posture as you age.
Here's a few of our favorites:
Easy Exercises
"Try this exercise: Every morning and night, lie down on the floor and make slow 'snow angels' with your arms for two or three minutes.
For an extra challenge, roll up a towel and put it on the floor underneath your spine. Many gyms have half foam rollers—a tube cut in half lengthwise—that you can use for even more of a stretch."
Take Vitamin D
"Vitamin D is essential for bone health, and may help us maintain our muscles too.
Try to get it from a healthy diet. A recent report from the Institute of Medicine, an independent, nonprofit organization, found that most of us get enough vitamin D from food and sunlight without taking supplements.
The recommended dietary intake for vitamin D is 600 IU a day for women up to age 70 and 800 IU for women older than 70."
Support Your Spine
"After menopause, women may have more weakening in the muscles around the spine than aging men do…
Exercises targeting the back extensors, neck flexors, pelvic muscles, and side muscles are crucial. Trainers at gyms can help; there are even special machines that target these muscles."

And don't waste another moment slumped over your computer screen. Pick up a BackJoy—it will help you start improving your posture today!

Nuclear energy is the energy that is obtained from the division (nuclear fission) or from the union (nuclear fusion) of an atom. Despite the existence of a large number of applications related to nuclear energy (medicine, industry, transport, etc.), the main application of this technology is the generation of electrical energy.
Electricity of nuclear origin is generated in nuclear power plants. At present, all nuclear power plants operate through nuclear fission reactions. The nuclear fuel they use is usually uranium or plutonium (by an artificial process). Because uranium resources are not unlimited, nuclear energy is considered a non-renewable energy source.
Nuclear power plants
Currently all nuclear power plants use nuclear fission to operate. Nuclear fusion is a technology that has many advantages but is still not in a position to use it, mainly for technical reasons.
Nuclear power plants are responsible for transforming the energy stored in the nucleus of atoms to convert it to electrical energy.
Operation of a nuclear power plant
The most important part is done in the nuclear reactor. Nuclear fuel rods are deposited in the nuclear reactor (usually uranium or plutonium) and, by projection of a neutron, a series of physical and chemical chain reactions are generated that release a large amount of thermal energy.
The thermal energy generated in the nuclear reactor is used to heat water and convert it to high pressure steam. The steam obtained will be responsible for operating large turbines, which connected to a dynamo, will generate electricity.
Once this electricity has been generated, it passes through transformers that adapt it so that it has the necessary conditions to be supplied to the electricity grid.
Nuclear fuel
The nuclear fuel used in nuclear power plants is uranium or plutonium.
Uranium is a mineral, not very abundant, that is extracted from Earth. It has a very unstable structure and it is very easy for it to change its atomic structure. This property is ideal for use, since precisely, what is intended is to change its atomic structure. Even before being used in a nuclear power plant, it passes through a nuclear fuel processing plant where it is enriched and becomes even more unstable.
The amount of energy that is obtained per gram of uranium is very high, but even so, the Earth has limited reserves of uranium that do not regenerate. For this reason, nuclear energy is considered a non-renewable source of energy.
The other material used is plutonium. Plutonium is not found in nature, it is a material obtained artificially. It is a residue of nuclear fission reactions with uranium.
Advantages and disadvantages of the use of nuclear energy
Advantages of the unilization of this non- renewable energy resource:
- You can get a lot of electric power with very little amount of nuclear fuel.
- It does not emit greenhouse gases abroad, which does not contribute to the global warming of the planet.
- All the energy generated by nuclear energy implies a reduction in the energy produced by thermal power plants. Therefore, a reduction in the use of fossil fuels.
- The weather conditions do not influence the production of electrical energy obtained. Thanks to this, an electricity production planning can be established.
Disadvantages of the use of nuclear energy:
- Although there are few accidents, the accidents produced are extremely dangerous for the environment and public health.
- The nuclear fuel used is limited.
- Nuclear power plants are a potential target for attacks.
- The management of the nuclear waste they generate is not very well resolved and it takes millions of years to lose their radioactivity.

This soup was so quick and easy! I wasn't able to let it chill as long as I would have liked but the flavor was so bright and the texture so smooth. I added a drizzle of honey while I was blending just because I wanted to. I served this with a strawberry soup and chicken Caesar wrap. Definitely a keeper for hot summer days!

Otsego Memorial Hospital (OMH) today officially joins Munson Healthcare as the seventh fully integrated hospital in the Munson Healthcare system.
The hospital will be called Munson Healthcare Otsego Memorial Hospital reflecting a new level of coordination and collaboration with the system. Gaylord's hospital joins Munson Healthcare Cadillac Hospital, Munson Healthcare Charlevoix Hospital, Munson Healthcare Grayling Hospital, Munson Healthcare Manistee Hospital, Munson Healthcare Paul Oliver Memorial Hospital in Frankfort, and Munson Medical Center in Traverse City as fully integrated hospitals in Munson Healthcare.
The agreement also includes the full integration and name change for outpatient clinics and medical practices owned and operated by the hospital in Gaylord, Elmira, Indian River and Lewiston.
New signs will be installed today and hospital staff and patients will enjoy celebration activities throughout the day. A short ceremony with comments from hospital officials is planned for later in the day.
OMH Board President Mary Sanders said full integration enhances regional health care for our patients and allows greater access to additional quality healthcare for the future.
"Our Gaylord-area communities have relied on our hospital to offer quality care for years and now greater access to additional areas of care is strengthened for future generations," she said.
OMH first affiliated with the Munson Healthcare system in 2006. During the past 10 years, the organizations have worked together to strengthen cardiology and oncology services in Gaylord and throughout OMH's growing service area. Joint planning and shared physician recruitment activities have allowed OMH and Munson Healthcare to partner to improve services and overall outcomes.
Under the final agreement, Munson Healthcare has committed to supporting OMH with several key projects, either currently underway or planned for the future, that will increase access and enhance the patient experience. Projects under the plan include the current renovation and expansion of the medical/surgical unit to primarily private rooms, and conversion to a single electronic health record for both OMH and medical group practices.
"Munson Healthcare's philosophy remains grounded in keeping care as close to home as possible," said Ed Ness, president and CEO of Munson Healthcare. "Otsego Memorial Hospital is a strong organization that has served Gaylord-area residents for decades. We look forward to our closer relationship and advancing clinical opportunities for the region."
OMH CEO Tom Lemon said over the past several months, teams from both organizations have completed the necessary work to ensure a smooth transition for staff and patients. Lemon will retain his leadership role as president of the hospital.
"Having been affiliated with Munson Healthcare for several years, we are excited to take this next step on behalf of our community," Lemon said. "We believe this integration will provide not only ongoing stability, but also opportunity to potentially bring new services to the region."

What is a Business Plan?
A business plan can best be described as a written road map intended to be followed by the company in order to meet established goals.
A goal may be as straight forward as obtaining a certain gross revenue target for small business owners or it may be as simple as "I want to earn six figures annually".
A business plan examines the market and allocates the necessary and available resources in order to accomplish the goal. It describes what needs to be done and who will do it. After this narrative, a financial plan is generated. It needs to be well thought out and it needs to make sense.
A very important part about a Business Plan is that it is not meant to be a static document - it needs to be changed and adjusted as conditions change or if assumptions used in the plan prove to be inaccurate.
As business goals become more elaborate, so must the plan. For example, if your business intends to borrow money or enlist investors, the plan usually would require expanding its content to include a company description, biographies of the key employees, multi-year financial forecasts and an executive summary, to name a few.
At Professional Business Solutions, Inc, we love writing business plans. Give us a call and we can get started on yours today!

Ruby loves to paint. She loves putting paint to paper. She loves the sound of the PLOP of paint. She loves to make squiggly lines and dots. She loves to paint her hands and make handprints. It is always an enjoyable experience. She produces a lot of paintings each month.
People sometimes think doing projects is too much work to set up for kids when they can have such short attention spans. I like to do some of the leg work ahead of time so that when Ruby is in the mood to paint, set up is all of 3 minutes. I keep the paint filled in little cups which makes setting up for painting time a snap. I mix a little dish soap in with the paint to help make it EXTRA washable. The cups have lids for easy storage. The paint brushes are color coded so it makes it easier for young kids to match them up with the right cup. We also have a few designated "paint shirts" from her dad hanging on command hooks. (my house is FULL of command hooks) Ruby is in charge of getting her paint shirt and putting it away. I slap a tablecloth on the table. We use a vinyl, flannel back tablecloth that just gets tossed in the washing machine. Once we have a tablecloth and paint shirt we are ready to go. All of the paper for painting is stashed right with the paint. I also have a nice place to hang paintings to dry and remain on display next to the table. Really it is just long pieces of twine held in by tacks but you can pretend it is fancy. All this preparation I do ahead of time makes saying YES to painting really easy, even if she only spends 5 minutes painting, it isn't a big deal to set up or tear down.
Since we paint often, it is sometimes nice to shake things up a little bit and experiment. Here are a few ideas we have tried out.
Painting with Balls
We often do this activity after receiving a package from Amazon and have an empty box….so we have done this numerous time. HA HA HA! All you need is a cardboard box, paper, paint and a ball you don't mind getting paint on. I often save little bouncy balls from going to the dentist or birthday parties with this idea in mind. We have used a variety of balls and just rinsed them off immediately after painting. Place a piece of paper in the bottom of your box squirt a little paint. You can do one color or a few. Drop a ball in and start tipping the box from side to side. Different types of balls leave different marks. Try a smooth ball and then try a spiky ball and compare. You can take this activity to the next level by using a small kiddie pool. Place paper in the bottom of the pool and add paint. You can always tape the paper to the bottom if you are worried about it sliding around. We did this as a messy art day project in the summer at the library I worked at and it was always a big hit with the kids and parents too.
Watercolor Painting
This is probably the one of the cleanest ways to paint with actual paint. Watercolor "patties" are hard and easy to store when dry. You just activate the watercolor paint with a wet brush. You can use regular paper or splurge on watercolor paper. I tend to cut the watercolor paper into quarters so it lasts longer. We also use our thinner paint brushes with watercolors. The best thing about watercolors is that even if all of the watercolor patties end up looking black from your little one mixing colors or not rinsing their brush off, you just run them under a little water and wipe with a rag or paper towel and VOILA, they are back to looking new.
Painting: The Messy Edition
Painting with your Body
When you have very young children you know that they sometimes turn painting into a whole body experience. Ruby has a buddy who would turn every painting experience into a full body paint-a-thon. Ruby has always been more reserved in this department. She will paint her hand to do handprints but for the most part sticks to using a brush. I decided to encourage a little more sensory play with paint so we have tried painting with our feet several times and it was a huge hit. We have done it two ways. We love to keep a giant roll or paper in the house. We currently have a black roll of paper and a white roll of paper and we have used them for so many different projects. We simply rolled the paper out on the back patio and sprinkled a little paint and began walking. We have also done this activity in a giant box. I had a treadmill delivered and the box lid was perfect and contained the paint mess well. I had an old towel to step on near by as well as a wet towel to wash her feet off. The paint can get a little slippery so we used caution while walking. It was a lot of fun. Ruby loved seeing what colors she could mix together and looking at all of her footprints.
Finger Painting
Finger painting is a wonderful sensory activity. Ruby was not a fan of it the first time we pulled out finger paint and to be honest, she still prefers the brush over painting with her fingers but she enjoys it a bit more now that she is older. I just put out paper and a few colors of paint in a dish or on a paper plate. You can buy "finger paint paper" or finger paint on anything you have handy. We have used scrap paper from the printer, old mail and cardboard boxes.
Painting: The Clean Edition
Paint with Water
The cleanest "painting" experience you can provide is with a paint with water type book. We happen to have the ones by Melissa and Doug. These are awesome to use in the car and on sick days when you are trying to keep your little one in bed or on the couch. You simply fill the brush with water and the pages change colors as you "paint" them with the water. We have a few sets. I keep some in the art supplies that Ruby can access any time and I keep one stashed away in our "sick kit" activities so that when it gets pulled out it is new and exciting.
I put the tools in place for Ruby to do her "work" and boy, is she busy.
There are so many options when it comes to painting with young children. I am sure I could make several more posts full of painting ideas and not even be scratching the surface. I really try to stick with making it fun for Ruby and easy on myself. I also lean heavily towards leaving things like painting open ended. For us right now, it is all about the experience. It is about experiencing color. It is about investigating what happens when you mix yellow and blue. It is about how the paint feels between your toes. It is about how the paint from your hand mixes with the soap bubbles when you wash your hands. It is about testing how long it takes for the paint to dry. There are so many things to learn and explore with paint.
What are you going to paint?
Other Options
Paint Cups with Brushes
Larger Amounts of Tempera Paint
Glitter Paint, because why not?

| 10.5°C Belfast
A 54-year-old man from the Shankill area of Belfast has been jailed for breaking into the home of another man and battering him with a golf umbrella.
Belfast Crown Court heard that the two men were involved in a "love triangle" as they had both been involved in a relationship with the same woman — but not at the same time.
William McClean was handed an 18-month sentence by Her Honour Judge McCaffrey after he pleaded guilty to a charge of aggravated burglary with intent to do grievous bodily harm. He broke into the other man's flat on May 1 last year armed with an umbrella.
McClean, from Hopewell Crescent, was told he will spend nine months of his sentence in prison, with the remaining nine months spent on supervised licence.
He was also ordered, as part of his licence, to participate in the Probation Board's Thinking Skills Programme.
Prior to sentencing, Crown prosecutor Gareth Purvis told the court that the incident occurred at around 1.30pm, when McClean broke into a flat at Coniston Close in the Shankill area.
The 59-year-old occupant was asleep but was woken by the sound of breaking glass and his front door being kicked in.
The occupant was then confronted by McClean in the hallway of the flat and was hit over the head with a golf umbrella being brandished by the intruder. The occupant was also punched several times around the face and head.
Mr Purvis said a "grappling match" then ensued between the two men, who knew each other as they had both dated the same woman.
The occupant was able to push McClean back down the hallway, but as the pair continued to struggle outside the flat, the occupant fell down some stairs.
The incident came to a halt when a neighbour intervened and separated the two.
Later that day, the occupant attended the A&E department at the Mater Hospital and was treated for cuts and bruises to his face which included six stitches.
Defence barrister Jonny Connolly said last May's incident was linked to a "love triangle", branding McClean "his own worst enemy."
Pointing out that at 54 his client was "old enough to know better", Mr Connolly said McClean had difficulties both with alcohol and with "relationships he shouldn't be in".
Regarding the incident itself, Mr Connolly said: "This was an attack on someone in their own home. It was a mean offence and it must have been very distressing for him."
The defence barrister said it was over quite quickly and was carried out when McClean was "clearly under the influence".

Nigeria: 150 women and children rescued from Boko Haram militants
May 1 , 2015
The Nigerian military has rescued around 150 women and children from the Boko Haram militant group, but some reports suggest that a group of women opened fire on the troops.
The rescue operation was launched in the Sambisa forest area, the military said.
The circumstances under which the soldiers were targeted are not clear. While some reports indicate that the Islamist fighters use women as shields, other sources have said that some women may have become indoctrinated after being in captivity for months.

Para-cyclists get national road championships underway
- Updated: February 4, 2015
The country's top para-cyclists got the national road and time trial championships underway in Mbombela, Mpumalanga on Tuesday.
Racing is expected to be of the highest order for the six-day championships which continue until Sunday.
Current SA Time Trial champ Daryl Impey recently returned from international duty with his Australian based Orica-GreenEDGE team and hopes to add a first ever SA Road Championships title to his trophy cabinet by overthrowing current road race title holder Louis Meintjes who pipped him at the post following a broken chain in 2014.
The women's charge will be led by Ashleigh Moolman Pasio who is out to defend both the road race and time trial titles she won in 2014. The Bigla Pro Cycling Team star will however be pushed hard by a number of others who also have a national title on their mind.
A large contingent of para-cyclists is relishing this year's national contest and with the absence of the most successful para-cyclist in South African history, Ernst van Dyk, a number of riders hope to be the first in line for this year's title.
Andries Scheepers has been known as the one rider with the ability to push Van Dyk in the past and with the absence of the 2008 Paralympic gold medallist, Scheepers may well fancy his chances when the road race takes place on Wednesday.
Tuesday's racing was hard fought with a number of para-cycling time trials being contested.
Craig Ridgard won the C3-5 Time Trial in a time of 28min 57sec ahead of Dane Wilson and was impressed with the event's organisation as well as favourable conditions riders experienced during Tuesday's time trials. 'The course was pretty technical but it was a great course!' he said happily.
'I am busy building towards the road race and I think that the result today was a good confidence booster for me heading into that." 'You never quite know what to expect from the weather on the Lowveld but we were blessed today with some good conditions and a great course so I am happy!"
Wilson is busy preparing himself for the Para-cycling Track World Championships in the Netherlands in a few months' time. 'There is a lot of crossing over from track to the road and to use a race like this to prepare was great for me as it allowed me to ride for a longer period on an undulating, technical time trial route.
'Racing in an individual environment is also great for me to prepare!' Wilson added.
Cape Town's H2 hand cycling ace Justine Asher, pictured above, was also on the top step of the podium on the opening day in Mbombela and she too was complimentary about the conditions and course.
'Today went really well for me and the lovely weather and smooth roads helped me get the best out of myself today. I think I am more geared to Time Trial racing so it was great to get a win today but I will look to do the same on Wednesday at the road race as I build up towards the World Cup events and the World Champs later in the year," Asher mentioned.
In the T1-T2 2012 Paralympian Gerhard Viljoen won in 23:10 from Goldy Fuchs and George Rex.
Runner-up Fuchs, who clocked 23:31, told Road to Rio 2016: 'The race started early this morning in good weather conditions, overcast but luckily no rain. The course suited me, with two tough climbs, a few circles and a narrow 90 degree corner.
'The race was hard from the beginning, starting on a slight incline. I had a great first lap and gave it my all. In the end, I came second and I'll try my best tomorrow to take first place in the road race!'
Conditions for the week are forecast to be humid as the Lowveld summer causes some discomfort. However, with many of the races scheduled to start early in the morning, the heat should not play too much of a role in proceedings.

Happy New Year everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic New Year. 2019 has arrived. I will now spend at least the next month incorrectly writing 2018 instead of 2019.
I had a very lovely and quiet Christmas with family and friends. One of the things I love most around this time of year is that it's an opportunity to start again; new challenges, new goals and a brand-new slate. I am in the middle of setting my new writing goals for the year and I endeavour to gain more ground with this than I did last year (I hope.)
One of the things that I did manage to do before midnight on 31st December was to finish my Goodreads reading challenge and believe me I did cut it fine. I think I had about an hour to go.
I like challenges like this because these days, with things like Netflix and the Internet, it's very easy for me to slip into a routine where I will just sit and watch telly. Therefore things like the Goodreads challenge will mean I will decide to read a book rather than box set a TV series. I blame Netflix for my dry reading spells last year.
My challenge in 2018 was 52 books; roughly one a week. I felt that this was doable. However, it's amazing how quickly life can get in the way and I realise that I did go little chunks of time without reading which is something that I want to change this year. Therefore, because I never learn, my target for this year is 54 books.
The good thing about the Goodreads challenge is that you can set your own goals.
If you want to find out more about it, click here – https://www.goodreads.com
If that doesn't sound like your thing then Penguin also has a reading challenge this year.
By going to their website you can pick from one of four categories; latest release, a classic.
I love the idea of this one because it may open you up to novels and genres that you may have not necessarily have thought about reading. This is one of the things I love most about doing this blog.
Click here to sign up to the Penguin Reading Challenge – https://www.penguin.co.uk.
For my sins I have decided to do both. If you like the idea of either or both of these let me know in the comments below. I'd love to hear which one/what books people have chosen.
I've also included the link to my Goodreads page too if anybody would like to be my friend on there – https://www.goodreads.com

It is a strange coincidence, that whenever an accountability process starts, or media reports highlight gross financial or administrative irregularities, a fire erupts, destroying important files and evidence. Important government offices and major commercial organizations the world over maintain micro filming records of such files stored in computers as back up.
In 2007 within a period of six months, fire engulfed PNSC head office in Karachi, during tenure of Babar Ghouri as Federal Minister Shipping, completely destroying all relevant files relating to misappropriation of funds and corruption. Similar fires have burned files in CDA, LDA and recently in Sind Secretariat. There is even a conspiracy theory about Ojri Camp disaster in Rawalpindi.
Fire has been used as a tool to claim insurance benefits by commercial retail stores and organizations in US and Europe. Major insurance companies have employed forensic experts to detect intentional fires to preempt fraudulent insurance claims, with stringent fire safety regulations requirements.
In Lahore a popular retail store selling branded and smuggled goods has witnessed three such fire incidences. It was a strange coincidence that few weeks before former flagship store located near Liberty Market was due for closure and planned to be shifted to new location; fire completely destroyed building causing losses of several crores. Numerous such fictitious fire incidences have occurred in Karachi and Islamabad.
Fire was used as a heinous tool by powerful extortion mafia in Karachi to burn down garment factory located in Baldia, Karachi killing over 280 poor workers, when owner refused to submit to their demand. NAB and premier investigative agencies involved in clamping down on corruption need to hire forensic experts to uncover such crimes which have become a regular feature in Pakistan.
Lahore, March 1.

The Spiritual Cause of Infertility
The Spiritual Cause of Infertility
In a deep need to create a child, and when there are problems, the spiritual cause of infertility is very often overlooked as one desperately searches for a physical cause. As a result, this very often leads to some sort of guilt being felt if one of the parents has a problem in that quarter.
The Hidden Emotions of Infertility
What has been overlooked are the deep emotions surfacing from past ancestral trauma, which can make the spiritual cause of infertility difficult to identify. This, in turn, can then be reflected in the parent's life history by a great deal of tension, anxiety, emotional conflict and traumatic shock. The result of this can be a life of competence anxiety, self-distrust, and self-inhibition.
When one's own childhood has been traumatised, there will be a fear of repeating the experience. One may, therefore, feel intimidated in becoming a parent. As there are two people involved here, the partner's fears and history can also play a part.
Visioning the Future with a Child
The spiritual cause of infertility can also be tied to the planning of a child. Therefore, there could be a deep fear of sabotaging the relationship by one of the parents. They may see that time and energy is being taken up and, subsequently feel overwhelmed. Because of this, the reason for having a child needs to be examined, such as loneliness and distraction.
It may then be time to explore other creative aspects of life and also explore any inner conflicts that may re-surface in the future.
Image by Clker-Free-Vector-Images from Pixabay
Questions Behind the Spiritual Cause of Infertility
- How would feel if you were your own mother/father? Any fears and doubts about that situation?
- If you have experienced trauma around the loss of a child, has this now been addressed?
- Do you doubt (rather than just wonder) whether you will be a good parent?
- What was your relationship like with your own mother or father? Which was the most challenging? There could be resentment or a fear of being like one of your parents. For a female to explore the relationship with their mother, is there any unresolved anger, resentment, feeling controlled or suppressed? I find this very important, as I am often having to address the parent's challenges when there is a problem arising with a child.
- Do you feel safe to have a child with your partner?
According to Lise Bourbeau in her book, Your Body's Telling You: Love Yourself, she advises to liberate yourself. Love and accept yourself with all your weaknesses and limitations. You are human: simply take your place in the human family. There is no need to overwhelm with your feats or your illnesses.
Much of the information about the emotions behind infertility was provided from "Metaphysical Anatomy" by Evette Rose.

I'm going to list this on eBay for the sale but thought I'd give a heads up to those of you who might be interested. I'm willing to accept offers but will charge for shipping. I'm building a new media PC/server which is why I'm selling this setup.
System includes:
Intel i5-2400 @ 3.1 GHz
16GB memory
Intel DH67BL Micro ATX motherboard with HDMi out
120 GB SSD boot drive
LG Black 12X BD-ROM internal blu-ray drive
Windows 7 installed
HEC 7K09BBA30 HTPC Slim Desktop Case
300W Power Supply
Ceton InfiniTV 4 PCI card
Ceton Echo
I built this system in Feb 2012 and I've only used it for Windows Media Center and Plex. I have a NAS for media storage which is why it only has the SSD boot drive in it. I've never overclocked the system and the only problems I've had were the occasional guide issues and I had a module of memory go bad on me at one point. Everything else has worked great. I'll probably list on eBay in the next week or so but if you're interested feel free to let me know here and I'll be sure to post back when it's listed.

Fifteen years ago as a medical technologist, Brian Rookstool looked forward to meeting high school students coming through the hospitals while doing medical internships for their classes.
"I found myself enjoying it. I enjoyed teaching to the point I decided to pursue a career in education," Rookstool said last week after school in his classroom at Veterans Memorial Early College High School.

Back to its Roots
After a one-year absence from the Who's Mailing What! Archive, W magazine is back with a new effortand it's a big departure from what the publication most recently has been using to bring in new business.
Throughout 2000 and 2001, we were seeing only double postcards and professional voucher efforts from W, which is not so unusual since the rest of the mainstream consumer media have been hooked on these formats, too.
But double postcards and skimpy professional discount offers used singularly are an odd risk for a publication whose prior controland a long-term one at thatwas a 9" x 12" envelope effort that featured a number of big hitters: a four-page letter; a 7" x 10" lift letter; an 8-1/2" x 11" brochure that unfolded to a magnificent 11" x 17" spread, and a dominating 8-1/2" x 11" order card with a perf-out reply card.
To go from such a large effort, that truly conveys the uniqueness of W magazine as the only women's fashion magazine in a tabloid size, to a professional discount offer with just a small four-color insert, the brand identity of the publication has to be lost amidst a stream of similar professional discount efforts from Vogue, Bazaar, Marie Claire and other marginal competitors.
With this 5" x 7" envelope mailing (203WMAGAZ0303) we received in March, W magazine is getting back to its roots with a new take on its old gift certificate-style control.
This new incarnation keeps the focus on the strength of the trial-issue offer with an invitation platform assisted by the low-ball price of $1 an issuethe emphasis on getting eight issues free at this deal compared to the cover priceand a free handbag with payment.
The mailing's components are stylish, but simple. The outer envelope introduces the invitation approach with copy cues and an elegant silver, white and red design scheme; it also boasts a photo of the premium gift on the back panel and a response-boosting sticker token to connect the prospect to the order card. The letter is a 6-1/2" x 9" sheet folded in half to create a four-page letter; the look is that of a longer message, when it really can be read in about two minutes. Genius!
A 6-1/2" x 9", four-color insert is folded in half to make a simple brochure that delivers the message on editorial
content in the magazine; the back panel promotes the premium, as does another separate, four-color insert that highlights the eight free issues angle and the no commitment aspect of the trial-issue offer.
Rounding out the mailing is a silver-edged order form that continues the invitation theme with offer summary copy that begins "I accept ..." and a pink courtesy reply envelope that encourages prospects to send payment with order to get their premium faster. In fact, W gives prospects a subtle push in that direction: After the "payment enclosed" option, the copy continues: "send my FREE W bag now!"
It's the final touch on an acquisition effort that has more teeth with which to capture new subscribers.
