I'm cautiously optimistic about Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. While I still think the series needs to ditch Johnny Depp, I'm curious about this prequel universe J.K. Rowling is concocting. The first Fantastic Beasts was a neat introduction, but now it feels like the story is getting down to business and I think The Crimes of Grindelwald will either be a make-or-break entry where fans are on board for the rest of the series or they decide to just peace out and wait for the next three entries as rentals. But before we get ahead of ourselves, we have to see what The Crimes of Grindelwald is going to do.
I'm pleased to announce we're giving away 35 admit-two passes to the Atlanta screening of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. To enter for a chance to see the movie early and for free, send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com with the subject line "FANTASTIC BEASTS 2". The screening is Wednesday, November 14th at 7:00pm at Regal Atlantic Station, so please don't enter if you think you'll be unavailable. Multiple entries from a single person will disqualify all entries from that person.
Check out the latest Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald trailer below. The film opens November 16th and also stars Eddie Redmayne, Jude Law, Katherine Waterston, Alison Sudol, Dan Fogler, Zoe Kravitz, Ezra Miller, Callum Turner, and Claudia Kim.
Here's the official synopsis for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald:
At the end of the first film, the powerful Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp) was captured by MACUSA (Magical Congress of the United States of America), with the help of Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne). But, making good on his threat, Grindelwald escaped custody and has set about gathering followers, most unsuspecting of his true agenda: to raise pure-blood wizards up to rule over all non-magical beings. In an effort to thwart Grindelwald's plans, Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) enlists his former student Newt Scamander, who agrees to help, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead. Lines are drawn as love and loyalty are tested, even among the truest friends and family, in an increasingly divided wizarding world.

The article is hopelessly biased - coming from a purely secular (and cinephile) standpoint - but it's nonetheless worth the read since it gives some interesting insights on Anneliese Michel's exorcism. I find it quite telling that this young and brave soul "had spoke of dying to atone for the sins of the wayward youth and apostate priests of the modern church." How true and insightful. May she rest in peace.
Omnis gloria Deo!
Omnis gloria Deo!
Anneliese Michel
Born: September 21, 1952
Birthplace: Klingenberg, Bavaria, Germany
Died: July 1, 1976 (cause of death: dehydration and malnourishment)
"I know that we did the right thing because I saw the sign of Christ in her hands. She was bearing stigmata and that was a sign from God that we should exorcise the demons. She died to save other lost souls, to atone for their sins." - Anna Michel (Anneliese's mother, 2005)
Questioning the story:
When did Anneliese begin to experience strange symptoms?
In 1968, when she was 17 and still in high school, Anneliese began to suffer from convulsions. Court findings have her experiencing her first epileptic attack in 1969. It was then that a neurologist at the Psychiatric Clinic Wurzburg diagnosed her with Grand Mal epilepsy. Soon, Anneliese started experiencing devilish hallucinations while praying. She also began to hear voices, which told her that she was damned. The court determined that by 1973 Anneliese was suffering from depression and considering suicide. In 1975, convinced that she was possessed, her parents gave up on the doctors from the psychiatric clinic. They chose to rely solely on the exorcisms for healing. Anneliese's symptoms have since been compared with those of schizophrenia, and they may have responded to treatment.
Who first diagnosed Anneliese as being possessed?
The first unofficial diagnosis was made by an older woman who accompanied Anneliese on a pilgrimage. She noticed that Anneliese avoided walking past a particular image of Jesus, and that she refused to drink water from a holy spring. The woman also claimed that Anneliese smelled hellishly bad. An exorcist from a nearby town examined Anneliese and concluded that she was demonically possessed. After two failed requests, the rite of exorcism was finally granted by the Bishop.
Was Tom Wilkinson's character of Father Moore based on a real person?
Tom Wilkinson's character was more a combination of two real-life people, Father Arnold Renz and Pastor Ernst Alt. Both men were assigned by the Bishop of Wurzburg, Josef Stangl, to carry out "The Great Exorcism" on Anneliese Michel. The foundation for this ritual was the "Rituale Romanum", which at the time, was still a valid 17th century Cannon Law. Father Arnold Renz had been a former missionary in China, and Pastor Ernst Alt was a pastor in a nearby community. Together they carried out 67 rites of exorcism over a period of 10 months, with one or two exorcism sessions held each week. Some sessions lasted up to four hours.
Did Anneliese Michel really see the faces of demons on the people around her like Emily Rose did in the film?
According to The Washington Post, as she grew more convinced that she was possessed, Anneliese began to see the faces of demons on the people and things around her.
What demons possessed Anneliese?
Anneliese was convinced that she had been possessed by several demons, including Lucifer, Judas Iscariot, Nero, Cain, Hitler, and Fleischmann, a disgraced Frankish Priest from the 16th century. She also mentioned a few other damned souls who had manifested themselves through her.
Did Anneliese's mother Anna support the making of the film?
No. Anneliese's mother did not support the making of The Exorcism of Emily Rose. "I don't want to see the film and I don't know anything about it," Mrs. Michel said, who was at the time in her eighties. Anneliese's father Josef died six years prior to the film's release.
How many people were found guilty in Anneliese Michel's death?
In the 2005 film, The Exorcism of Emily Rose, only one of the characters, Father Richard Moore (Tom Wilkinson), was found guilty of negligent homicide surrounding the death of Emily Rose. In the real-life case of Anneliese Michel, which took place in 1978, there were four defendants, not just one. They were Father Arnold Renz, Pastor Ernst Alt, and Anneliese Michel's parents, Josef and Anna. All four were found guilty of negligent homicide and sentenced to six months in prison, suspended with three years' probation.
Is it possible that Anneliese was copying what she had seen in William Friedkin's 1973 film The Exorcist?
Director William Friedkin's film The Exorcist was released in Germany in 1974, two years prior to the audio tapings of the exorcisms in which we hear Anneliese's recorded voice. Even though her voice is quite chilling, it bares a striking resemblance to the growling, barking, and inhuman voice of Linda Blair from Friedkin's film. This has caused some people to conclude that Anneliese was simply mimicking what she had seen in the film, if she had in fact seen the film. Upon its release in Germany, the movie created a sort of paranormal hysteria that swept the nation. European Psychiatrists reported an increase of obsessive ideas among their patients. The movie however, does not provide explanation for the years prior to 1974, in which she was experiencing numerous other afflictions that she and those close to her had attributed to demonic possession.
What other disturbing things did Anneliese do?
Anneliese carried out a number of highly disturbing actions. She licked her own urine off the floor. She ate flies, spiders, and coal. She bit off the head of a dead bird. In one instance, she crawled under a table and barked like a dog for two days. She could often be heard screaming through the walls for hours. Tearing off her clothes and urinating on the floor became a regular occurrence.
Did the exorcisms cause her bodily harm?
Yes. Anneliese endured 67 rites of exorcism over a period of 10 months. Over time, the ligaments in her knees ruptured due to the 600 genuflections that she performed obsessively during each exorcism session. A genuflection is an act of reverence consisting of falling onto one or both knees (called a "double genuflection"). On June 30, 1976, during her last rite of exorcism before her death, too weak and emaciated to perform the genuflections on her own, Anneliese's parents stood and helped carry her through the motions.
Was there a doctor present during the exorcisms as in the film?
No. Around Easter time of the year that she died, Anneliese began to refuse food and drink. Her convulsions returned with a greater ferocity. No doctors were called. During the trial, specialists claimed that if the four accused (Father Arnold Renz, Pastor Ernst Alt, and the parents) would have begun to force feed Anneliese a week before her death, then she would still be alive. One of Anneliese's sisters explained to the court during the 1978 trial that Anneliese did not want to go to a mental hospital where she would be drugged and forced to eat.
In her book, The Exorcism of Anneliese Michel, Felicitas D. Goodman embraces the possibility that Anneliese was not epileptic, and that the medication the doctors had given her to control her seizures only made her hallucinations worse.
Why did Anneliese Michel refuse to eat?
She forced herself to fast because she believed that it would rid her of Satan's influence. At the time of her death, she weighed only 68 lbs. Prior to her death, she had spoke of dying to atone for the sins of the wayward youth and apostate priests of the modern church.
What did Anneliese technically die from?
According to the autopsy, on July 1, 1976 Anneliese Michel succumbed to the effects of severe dehydration and malnourishment. At the time of her death, she was also suffering from Pneumonia and a high fever (1g3.com). She was buried next to her illegitimate sister Martha at the outer edges of the cemetery. This area is normally reserved for illegitimate children and suicides.
What were Anneliese Michel's last words?
Weak and on the verge of death, she spoke her last known words on the day before she died. She told her exorcists "Beg for Absolution". To her mother Anna, she said, "Mother, I'm afraid."
Had Anneliese been a deeply religious person prior to 'being possessed'?
Yes. Anneliese and her three sisters were raised in a strict Catholic family. Her father Josef had considered training as a priest and three of her aunts were nuns. Four years before Anneliese was born, her mother gave birth to an illegitimate daughter, Martha. As a result, her mother suffered great shame and was forced to wear a black veil on her wedding day. When Anneliese was a child, her mother encouraged her to atone for the sins of illegitimacy through fervent devotion. When Anneliese's sister Martha died at the age of eight during an operation to remove a kidney tumor, this likely only increased Anneliese's desire to do penance for her mother. As she grew older, Anneliese continued to suffer for the sins of others. When she was a teenager, Anneliese slept on a bare stone floor to atone for the sins of wayward priests and drug addicts, who could be observed sleeping on the hard ground at the local train station. In college at West Germany's University of Würzburg, she hung pictures of saints on her dorm room walls, kept a holy-water font near the door, and regularly prayed the Rosary. As stated earlier, even close to her death she spoke of dying to atone for the sins of the wayward youth and renegade priests.
Is it possible that the priests who performed the exorcisms provided Anneliese with the contents of her psychotic behavior?
Some experts believe that this is possible. Psychiatrists who testified during the trial spoke about the "Doctrinaire Induction", which in relation to Anneliese explains that she accepted her behavior as a form of demonic possession, mainly because the exorcists introduced much of the idea to her and reinforced it with each exorcism. In 1984, German bishops and theologians petitioned Rome to change the exorcism rite. They concluded that speaking directly or "imperatively" to the Devil, that is, "I command thee, unclean spirit . . . " only confirms to the patient that they are without a doubt possessed .
In the film, did the director try to provide an answer as to whether or not she was truly possessed?
No. In an interview, Scott Derrickson responded to this question by saying, "We tried to put at the center of the movie the question of why did she die, and what is the truth behind this phenomenon? And ultimately to not answer it." Screenwriter Paul Harris Boardman went on to explain, "We have a Scully-Mulder approach to this material, with me being a little more the skeptic and Scott the believer. We approach it and try to be very fair and even-handed to both points of view, to our points of view. That's how we approach it analytically."
I read that the body of Anneliese Michel was exhumed after her death, is this true?
Yes. On February 25, 1978, almost two years after her death, the deceased body of Anneliese Michel was dug up and moved to a new oak-coffin lined with tin. Her parents' desire to move her from the cheap coffin in which she was buried was allegedly used as an excuse to exhume her body. Instead, they were acting on a message received from a Carmelite nun from the district of Allgaeu in southern Bavaria. The nun had told the parents that she had a vision that their daughter's body was still intact. Official reports state that the body showed consistent deterioration. Photos of the exhumed body were never released, and Anneliese's parents were prohibited from witnessing the exhumation. From a distance, they could however see her grave from the bedroom of their home, where her mother still lives today.
Is it true that another movie is being made about the exorcism of Anneliese Michel?
Yes. A German language film about Anneliese Michel called Requiem, directed by Hans-Christian Schmid, was released in 2006. It is much more a drama than a horror film, and it supposedly follows the real story of Anneliese Michel more closely.
Watch the Requiem movie trailer.

I've been so busy this week that I barely stitched a single little X on any of my projects! Instead, a very kind lady at my office has been giving me a sort of introduction to paper craft, and I've been trying my hand at something a little different. I've made a few paper craft cards before for Christmases past, but I've never had a proper lesson on the basics, I've always just sort of made it up as I go along.
So, instead of a stitching post this week, I want to proudly show off my first ever decoupage card!
I know that to my very talented and experienced readers, this is probably laughably simple but nevertheless, I'm really pleased with it! I spent so long with my little craft knife cutting around those petals oh-so-carefully, hoping it would turn out how I wanted. I have so much new found respect for papercrafters who make it look so easy to just swoop their knives around and produce perfect swirls and curves!
I hope with practice and a few more lessons I'll be turning out a batch of beautiful decoupage cards to go with my stitched ones this year. And of course, as the weeks count down, I wish all my readers the very best of luck and speediest of needles for their own Christmas preparations!

At this year's German-American Friendship Festival, a new event will take place. One unit stationed at U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden will be awarded the Commander's Cup.
The Commander's Cup program was started to encourage esprit de corps and enhance readiness and physical fitness by recognizing Soldiers and units who participate in recreational activities through the Directorate of Family, Morale, Welfare and Recreation.
Because the program started in 2018, units have only been collecting points based on their recreation activities since March. Next year's competition will run from July 1, 2018, to June 30, 2019.
"We've always had the recreation opportunities," said USAG Wiesbaden Command Sgt. Maj. Chad Pinkston, "but this is going to recognize people who participate regardless of how they finish."
Qualifying recreational activities include unit-level team sports such as basketball and flag football, as well as runs and functional fitness competitions.
"It creates a little bit of competition between the organizations," Pinkston said. "Competition is always good, especially with what we do in the military."
For more information about the Commander's Cup, visit the Wiesbaden Sports, Fitness and Outdoor Recreation page at wiesbaden.armymwr.com.

Five Creative Exchanges focused on dance and video, sound and place, embodying and eliciting story, and site-based physical performance were designed to enable participants to reflect creatively on their experiences of identity across places and cultures.
Exchange #1 (21st July, 2018)
Aunty Fay Stewart-Muir, Boon Wurrung custodian accompanied the artists/participants for a walk and talk about significant cultural sites in Wyndham. Discussions were based around connections to place for both original owners of the land and newly arrived citizens.
Exchange #2 (4th Aug, 2018)
Led by Dianne Reid, this workshop was a warm-up into movement improvisation – exploring body and space and moving as a group. This led to the exploration of moving, viewing and framing, into 'screendance', an embodied video practice.
Exchange #3 (18th Aug, 2018)
A 'Storytelling' process led by Patrick West, eliciting personal stories as they relate to the themes of the project – identity, citizenship, experiences of place and being 'between two worlds'.
This exchange also welcomed the sharing of an aspect of each paricipant's artistic practice. They showed or engaged the group in an activity relating to their art.
Exchange #4 (1st Sept, 2018)
In this participatory sound workshop, participants explored: Who is my Self? What is my Music? What is the future of Wyndham/Melbourne/Australia/India that I want to be a part of? They engaged in walking dialogues and micro-observations and responded through movement, gesture, sound, music-making and conversation the collective field of future possibilities on individual and social levels.
This creative exchange was led my Myfanwy (Min) Hunter.
Exchange #5 (15th Sept, 2018)
Led by Gretel Taylor & Shaun McLeod, this cultural exchange introduced movement and perception activities into site-specific performance along the river and shopping strip. Incorporating stories/experiences/memories of place, the participants own mediums developed into individual responses to local sites.

Whenever I travel abroad I'm always amazed by the quality of food on offer at local hole in the wall spots. Usually these places are untouched by the hand of tourism and can be found at the bottom of some shifty looking street, where curious glances from locals can be interpreted as surprise, that you said tourist, decided to stray from the beaten path and into a place they call home. And whenever I come back from such experience I always promise myself that'll do the same thing once I get back on home turf, but as serial procrastinators will know too well, saying you'll do something and actually following through with it are two completely different things.
Ever since I moved to Stratford I've found myself exploring more of my surroundings than I ever did when I used to live at home with my Mum in Canning Town. In terms of numbers I guess there's far more restaurants – proper sit and eat places where lamented menus and Poundland LED candles are the norm – opposed to the ten-a-penny chicken shops you'll find along Barking Road. And the great thing about Stratford is that such a cultural melting pot; that literally within a stone's throw of my flat I can sample foods from Thailand, Indian and Brazil for about £15 per-head. Pretty cool!
On this occasion we decided to sample the culinary delights of Poland, at this great little café/restaurant called Londek. I'm not the least familiar with Polish food; the closest I've come to it was either in Berlin or Prague where I'm sure there's some sort Germanic influence in their love for a boiled potato or two.
You hear a lot of talk of 'authenticity' especially if you binge watch episodes of Munchies on YouTube, but usually that just means a bare bones menu and basic ingredients. Or better yet a sort of call action in response to the often over-elaborate self-indulgence of the restaurant glitterati. That's all well and good, more power to them, but justifying your average burger & chips meal as authentic because the guy making it loves a burger or that meat was bought from a butchers around the corner is neither good reflection of taste or legitimacy. Food is either good or bad; no amount buzz word drenched hyperbole can hide that fact.
Londek is as honest and authentic as it comes. The majority of the menu is written in Polish with brief translations in English to accompany most of the meals. But don't expect anything too detailed and if you're really worried about what you're going to order, there are pictures on the wall, similar to Chinese takeaways, but if you're feeling really adventurous you could always ask the friendly waitresses, who helped us pick out what we wanted.
After much deliberation – on my part, I always revert to type when it comes to ordering – we agreed to start with a plate of () which is basically a Polish dumplings, stuffed with all manner of things, the ones we ordered were half cheese and onion and half beef. They were a bit bland for my liking and I'm not the biggest fan of potatoes substituting pastry dough. But for £8 you get a big plate of 8 fairly large dumplings.
For our mains we opted for a 2 schnitzels, 1 was Chicken with Potatoes (ha) and the other Pork with French Fries; both were delicious and considering they come up to about £9 a plate it was a really good deal. All in all my first Polish experience was a pleasant one and considering Londek is 100 meters away from my flat it's safe to say I'll be visiting again for a cheat day binge!
Score – 7/10

Facts about pheromones
Almost every man and woman has heard of these substances that have a great love power. But, in fact, the knowledge of pheromones for many is generally limited here.
Perhaps the most famous is the androstenone pheromone, secreted not only by the glands of some animals, but also from those of men. Men and every third woman can not differ its smell. What information it carry still remains a mystery.
It has been found that pheromones are not only a source of sexual message. Using them the animals are changing the borders of their territory, report imminent danger, collect the herd and also regulate the parental relationships.
For over 30 years the experts deal with the study of pheromones, but still there are more questions than answers. It has been proven that we do not feel attracted to someone whose smell we do not like. Researchers explain – the most attractive partner for our criteria should smell nice, ie have a "unique" smell for us.
However, if you like someone's smell, it just means that he / she fits you biological, but not that you have compatibility in terms of temperament, personality, intelligence, etc.
Pheromones are capable of improving women's mood. As a result, the level of certain hormones in the blood is changing, especially those involved in regulating the menstrual cycle and reproductive function.
Pheromones smell specifically because they do not consist of one substance but are a complex set of at least several. Most scents we detect with the help of smelling, while others do not, as they are processed by the limbic system of the brain responsible for what we call intuition.

How Math Tutoring Is Important
Math is one of the subjects that can actually be very challenging for the children and that is why it's very important for you to consider getting some help for them. You can decide to use a math tutor so that they can be able to get the help they need. Getting a math tutor today is not necessarily very difficult and because of this, you have to consider it. You could go for the option of hiring a math tutor was going to come to or meet with the child or with the student physically or, you can also decide to go for the online services. Many people consider the online services to be much better today because they are convenient and they are much safer. It's going to be a more affordable for you to use the online services as compared to using their physical tutor. However on the other hand, hiring physical tutors is going to give a very personal experience and that is exactly what you need. You should always be able to consider all these factors according to what is going to be making more sense to you. Tutoring services are going to be of major benefit to you as the information in this article explains the same.
One of the major advantages of hiring the tutors is that they are able to give very personal learning experiences to the children which is actually very important. The possibilities that the experiences within school can be very personal are usually very minimal because the teachers have to teach many students. It is also because of the math tutors that you're able to get another benefit of learning at your own pace. You can be sure that because of these services, the child is going to understand math better and because of that, you'll start performing much better in school. It is going to be more satisfying for them and because of this, their self-esteem is also going to be very high. They will also be able to have a very better social life which is actually important.
Another reaction that you're going to get is that the child will start loving education and going to school which is an important thing. Through giving them different types of assignments, the math tutor is going to keep them accountable which is also very important. The information in this article is therefore help you to understand the importance of these math tutor's.

Kashmir's First Rail Link
More than 100 years after Kashmir was promised a rail link, the dream was finally fulfilled on Saturday with the opening of the first train connecting Srinagar to Rajwanshar in south Kashmir's Anantnag district. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh flagged off the first train on 11th Oct'08. Kashmir was promised a rail link by Maharaja Pratap Singh, the region's Dogra ruler in 1892. The British took up that promise but never delivered and then independent India's governments have struggled to make it happen. Strife, terrorism and the challenge of boring through weak mountain & bridging huge crevasses stalled the project several times.
Although the track on which the inaugural run was made was only 66 Km's and the had just 8 coaches, the significance ad symbolism of the flag off goes much farther. The train will not only shrink distances in the valley and eventually connect it to Jammu, it will also give Kashmiris an emblem of pride as well. The rail link is sure to diminish the shril cries of azadi and the acute feelings of central neglect.

Entry posted by DovahNiik ·

I just wanted to do a little blog entry about GOT because it's been on my mind a lot since they decided to kill off Jorah, my dearest love, and also Beric, who's also my dearest love and then also decided to kill two of the dragons. Thankfully there's still the sex, though.
Everyone who's watching right now will probably be sharing the same thought: WHY DANI?! Why did she not only continue to fly Drogon towards Euron on the ships but also then take him to King's Landing, even if he was in the background?! Anger, that's why. She's raging right now. I've not been a very big fan of Dani for a few years, when she started to sound remarkably like Viserys with the whining and entitlement but since she stepped onto the coast of Dragonsreach she's been a lot less likeable. Everything she does seems fake and calculated and she shows little caring for any of her future charges. I suppose that's because she doesn't actually care about them, she doesn't know them and they don't know her. Her scene with Gendry made me uneasy since it pretty much encapsulated her relationship with Jon (and the rest of the North) in one scene; she needs him and his army and he's soft as a bloody brush. Now, she also needs him to shut up about the fact that he's her nephew. Sorry, Dani, the last Stark capable of keeping a secret was Ned, it seems. Unfortunately for her, the rest of the North, and their Lady, are a lot smarter than Jon right now and you can feel the distrust. Her own advisor joins them.
Euron in this last episode was funny as ever, pretty bad-ass in fact! You really have to give it to the guy, he knows how to build a fleet! He's-uh-not great with biology though, it seems. Poor guy. He's going to be thrilled in 6 months time when his baby arrives.
Bran is still a curious character, he's getting more and more distant every day. I wonder what his character arc will be now? I doubt it's anything good. I wondered if Bran is as much of a weapon against Man as the Night King was, it's been made perfectly clear that he doesn't feel human emotions any more and he was connected to the NK. I also wonder if there can be more than one Night King like there was more than one Three-Eyed-Raven. Luckily, we won't have long to find out!
The only other irk for me is that it feels incredibly rushed this episode. Jaime beds Brienne and then within 15 minutes of viewing, he's off again breaking her heart. Just didn't give us time to adjust to anything in this episode. I would have loved a longer running thing where we could have enjoyed the small victory celebration. It was great to see everyone together for a change. It's a shame it ended the way it did and poor Missandei deserved to be able to leave with Greyworm so they can frown at people in the sunshine forever, but that's not GOT is it?
Lastly, I'm gonna throw some love towards Cersei, she has been an amazing villain during this entire thing. How one person can be so hateful this consistently is fantastic, she truly earned that throne for the time she had it! Talk about Ice Queen!
Oh yeah and F for Respect for Gendry. Shot downnnnnn.

Going vegan is so last year — the new trend is to eat food that's alive.
A recent study of New England college students found that those who describe themselves as neurotic felt less social anxiety if they exercised and ate more fruits, vegetables and, crucially, probiotic foods like tofu, sauerkraut and yogurt.
The microbiome has been getting a lot of attention, but research on good bacteria in our gut and its ability to influence our physical and mental wellbeing is just beginning. Fermentation is one experiment you can try easily and safely at home.
We asked Tara Whitsitt, whose love of food grew into her mobile workshop Fermentation on Wheels, a bus-turned-creative kitchen in which she tours the country, to give us a primer.
What hooked you on fermentation?
"I've always loved food; it was just a matter of time until I discovered how to ferment food," Whitsitt says. "It all became about the power of the microbe, the idea that there is this small organism that is sustaining that food and enhancing it, flavor-wise, and also nutritionally. It's a really simple, sustainable way of making really delicious as well as nutrient-dense food."
How safe is it?
"Food fermentation is very safe. If anything, they're safer than canned goods because the bacteria E. colicannot survive the salty environment of the fermentation process — it cannot compete with lactobacillus."
Will it make my apartment smell?
"If you're concerned about the smell, maybe introduce kimchi later. But sauerkraut, cucumber pickles, kombucha, sourdough, kefir — these foods don't have a huge effect on the smell in your space."
Will it make*me* smell?
"Definitely not — if anything, it's going to make you smell better; you'll be healthier, and your skin is going to look nicer. You're populating and diversifying the bacterial flora that is inside of you. You are nourishing yourself completely."
What do I need to get started?
Find a glass jar with a wide enough mouth: Fermentation is an anaerobic process, so make sure to put something into the jar (and wash it between batched) to keep the veggies under the surface of your brine.Beyond that, fermentation is "just salt and vegetables," she says.
Any maintenance required?
"If a vegetable is not submerged, it's in an aerobic state, and mold will begin to feast on it. That doesn't mean anything underneath is bad — it's good, that's why something else is eating it before you get to it," Whitsitt explains. If that happens, scrape off the top of the sauerkraut or pull out the one vegetable that's gotten moldy. "You have to take care of your kraut."
What should I avoid?
Yogurt (look for active cultures)Cottage cheeseKefirSauerkrautPickled vegetables (cucumbers, radishes, beets, etc.)KimchiMisoTempehSoy sauce
"Temperature fluctuations are not ideal; it's best to have a temperature-stable space, ideally between 68-76 degrees. You can ferment at a lower temperature, but just make sure it's rather stable. If you're fermenting at warmer and then colder temperatures, you kind of throw it into this chaotic state, so the texture could be mushy or not lovely. It doesn't necessarily mean it will taste bad or go bad, it's just not going to appeal to you as much."
How long doesit take?
It's subjective and depends on the vegetable (water-heavy ones like cucumber ferment faster). Whitsitt used sauerkraut as an example: "If you like your sauerkraut milder, ferment it for a week. If you like it more sour, three weeks to a month — it'll be funkier."
How long does fermented food stay good once opened?
"If you keep it in the refrigerator, sauerkraut can last anywhere from 6 months to a year. In the cooler temperature, the fermentation process goes dormant — it's still fermenting but at a very very slow pace." The flavor can change,whether itbecomesricher or fades.
"Kimchi becomes way more exciting the longer it's been in the fridge." Just make sure you press down your ferment in the jar after each use so it remains submerged, or transfer it to a smaller jar to leave less space for anything else to grow.

The escalators' reign of terror continues in China with a little boy losing a fingertip to one of the machines at a Sichuan shopping mall.
Surveillance footage from the mall in the city of Luzhou shows the 3-year-old seated on an escalator step going downward. At the bottom, he reaches down and his fingers become stuck. Standing a few steps farther up, his mom reacts quickly and pulls his hand free, however, in the process the tip of his index finger was nipped off.
The shopping mall has refused to take full responsibility for the accident, noting that there are a plethora of warning signs around and that parents should be responsible for looking after their own children.
A few years back, a lack of parental supervision and some faulty equipment led to a terrifying string of escalator accidents in China. While things have quieted down recently, every now and again, a shopping mall escalator tries to swallow another child.

Background & Testing
Groundwater in the underground basins that supply the District is of good quality and has no known contamination. Drinking water served by the District meets and exceeds all government health and safety standards. In fact, our water is considered to be of superior quality because of:
- low sodium content
- low nitrate levels
- low levels of calcium carbonate, which make it soft
When discussing water quality in Twentynine Palms, fluoride content is an issue that merits attention. The District took steps to address high concentrations of fluoride in some local water sources beginning in the early 1980s. Local groundwater has widely varying levels of naturally occurring fluoride, depending on the source. These levels, when averaged, maintain an overall District fluoride level of less than 1.4 parts per million. State regulations allow for a fluoride level of 2 parts per million in drinking water, while federal rules permit up to 4 parts per million. Because groundwater is the sole source of supply for the Twentynine Palms area, the State has granted the District a variance that allows for a fluoride level up to 3 parts per million. The District's goal is to maintain fluoride levels of less than 2 parts per million.
The District employs a stringent testing schedule for all local water sources, based upon state and federal regulations. Testing is conducted weekly for bacteria and fluoride, annually for radioactivity, and every three years for pesticides, minerals, inorganic substances, clarity, taste and odor.
The 2016 consumer confidence report includes information about where your water comes from, what it contains, and how it compares to standard set by regulatory agencies. To view the document, click here.

So, let's just say the Minnesota Wild had a bit of an unusual offseason.
As they say in sports, you're hired to be fired, and general managers lose their jobs all the time.
But it's completely abnormal for a GM to receive his pink slip 3 ½ months into the offseason and even more unheard of for that to happen before that GM enters his second season as the boss.
But Wild owner Craig Leipold finally felt compelled to pull the plug on the Paul Fenton after one destructive season as the team's GM. Leipold repaired his mistake by hiring Bill Guerin, who merely in the likeability department will be an improvement over his predecessor. A young 48, Guerin is less than a decade removed from a successful playing career that included more than 1,000 games, more than 400 goals and four Stanley Cups—two as a player, two as a Pittsburgh Penguins executive. He brings instant credibility to the team and is immensely respected throughout the NHL.
Being hired in late August, there's not much Guerin can do right now in terms of changing up the roster, so he'll take his time, analyze what he has got and then begin to make moves to help improve the team he hopes to lead for a long, long time.
This is a very different looking team than last year at this time.
Gone are Mikael Granlund, Nino Niederreiter and Charlie Coyle. Here are Kevin Fiala, Ryan Donato, Victor Rask and Brad Hunt.
But Guerin feels there's a real solid base and foundation, and if the team can get internal improvement from young guys like Fiala and Luke Kunin and some of the older guys like Eric Staal and Jason Zucker, stay healthy and come together in the locker room, they have the makings of a good team.
Last season, the Wild's year really derailed in mid-December when defenseman Matt Dumba, who led all NHL blue liners with 12 goals, was lost for the season with a torn pectoral muscle. That was compounded six weeks later when captain Mikko Koivu sustained a season-ending knee injury. Both are back.
Guerin has a lot on his plate.
He'll need to try to convince defenseman Jared Spurgeon, who enters the last year of his contract, to commit to the Wild long-term. He'll need to fly to Russia in an attempt to become the Wild's third GM to establish a relationship with prized prospect Kirill Kaprizov, whom the Wild want to bring over to the NHL next season. He'll need to decide coach Bruce Boudreau's future. He, too, is in the last year of his contract.
And he'll need to really evaluate what he has in an attempt to start to put his mark on his new franchise.
All teams are optimistic heading into the season and the Wild think they can surprise a lot of people despite a tough start to their schedule with 13 of their first 18 games on the road.
"We've got some very good NHL hockey players and I was telling somebody last night, 'People are writing us off way too early,'" Boudreau said.
Projected forwards lines:
Jason Zucker-Eric Staal-Mats Zuccarello
Zach Parise-Luke Kunin-Kevin Fiala
Ryan Donato-Mikko Koivu-Jordan Greenway
Marcus Foligno-Joel Eriksson Ek-Ryan Hartman
Possible extras: Victor Rask, Nico Sturm, J.T. Brown, Gerry Mayhew
Projected defense pairs
Ryan Suter-Matt Dumba
Jonas Brodin-Jared Spurgeon
Nick Seeler-Greg Pateryn
Seventh defenseman: Brad Hunt
Projected goalies
Devan Dubnyk
Alex Stalock
Possible extras: Kaapo Kahkonen, Mat Robson
Russo's predicted leading goal scorer: Parise turned 35 in July and is at a crossroads. He led the Wild with 28 goals and 61 points last season and when healthy is still as productive as ever and the Wild's best scorer. But he badly wants to win a Stanley Cup while he still is young enough to make an impact. This past summer, in a feature in The Athletic the day before his birthday, Parise sounded the alarms that he's very worried the Wild are entering a rebuilding situation after last year's trades. While Parise very much wants to win in Minnesota, with six years left on his contract, this could be the first time in his career that Parise would at least entertain a trade if it were to the perfect situation. Parise controls that possibility though because he has a full no-move clause. Nevertheless, because of his age and $7.5+-million cap hit, it's a difficult trade to make. So Parise should be back and if healthy very likely will lead the Wild in scoring.
Russo's predicted leading scorer: If Zuccarello plays on the right side of Zucker and Staal all year long, he is the type of playmaker that could replace the loss of Granlund. If Zucker and Staal have bounce-back years after a tough 2018-19 season, Zuccarello should see his stats line balloon. Zuccarello averaged almost .7 points per game during his successful New York Rangers career and is the type of skater and scorer that should excite Wild fans despite the team signing him long-term on the north side of 30 years old.
Ready to break out: Last season, we started to see flashes of the type of player young Kunin could become. He's intense, physical, works his butt off and if put in the right situation can score. At least to start the season, Kunin will be put in that right situation between the likes of Parise and Fiala. Kunin, who once captained the United States to gold at the World Juniors, is versatile enough to play wing or center. But he will start the season at center after playing well following last year's Koivu injury and producing 6 goals in 11 games for Iowa in the playoffs.
Must bounce back: Zucker and Staal, plain and simple. Two years ago, Zucker scored 33 goals and Staal 42. Last season, Zucker scored 21 and Staal 22. The Wild were shut out 11 times and scored the fewest goals in the NHL from Dec. 15 on, so they just can't afford the type of down years we saw from Zucker and Staal. Zucker dealt with trade rumors all season long and should enter this year with a clear mind now that Fenton, the man that was obsessively trying to trade him, is gone. Staal was more of a concern just because he turns 35 in October and showed signs of fatigue. But Staal is such a pro and is the type of player that can leave you feeling foolish if you doubt him.
Possible call-ups: The way the Wild roster shapes up, it'll be very hard for rookie Nico Sturm to make the team. But he got an NHL two-game taste last season after signing out of Clarkson University and was the MVP of the team's June development camp. This big center is pure character. Playing in Iowa would only do the kid good. He should get big minutes and responsibility, stuff that will only help him when he gets promoted to the NHL.
What must happen for the Wild to make the playoffs: Simple. Health, internal improvement and bounce-back years. In the cutthroat Central Division, the Wild aren't deep enough to absorb major injuries like they did last season to Dumba and Koivu. What's more, it'll be impossible for this team to succeed if we don't see guys like Staal and Zucker rebound but also see big-time improvement from guys like Fiala, Donato, Kunin, Greenway and Eriksson Ek. It's their time to step up their games and become important fixtures on the ice and in that locker room. If the Wild can come together as a team, they could surprise many, like Boudreau believes they can.

Let's face it-no one wants to sit in a meeting longer than they have to. We all have busy lives, with jobs, families and other responsibilities. The last thing we need is a meeting that isn't being run well or allows people to vent various concerns for hours. Having these long meetings can cost considerable time as well as money, particularly if you have someone on the clock taking meeting minutes.
For these reasons, it's imperative to take every possible step to make sure that your "hour-long meeting" is actually only an hour long. Here are some tips for streamlining meeting length that you can implement right now:
Create a well-outlined agenda: As with so many things, planning is everything when it comes to your condo board meetings. Detailing exactly what is going to be discussed and in what order, along with action items and providing documentation on finances, goes a long way toward keeping the meeting contained. It's a good call to also send out the agenda packet beforehand to all the board members so they'll know exactly what's coming up. If someone is monopolizing the meeting by talking too much or getting off topic, you can then point to the schedule and diplomatically point out that it's necessary to move on.
Stay on task: It might feel natural for board members to talk about their families or sports or the weather, and it's nice to have that kind of camaraderie. However, this sort of table talk should be relegated to before or after meetings. Appoint a strong chair who won't be afraid to tell members that they need to stick to the agenda.
Set start and end times: Having hard, set-in-stone start and end times will mean that the meeting doesn't stretch out too long. If everyone on the board agrees that ending at 8 p.m. is a good idea, then it will be easy to point out during the meeting that getting through the rest of the agenda items is a priority. Like with the agenda, it's smart to communicate time constraints to board members ahead of time. The work you put in then will pay off when the meeting actually ends at a reasonable hour.
By following these simple steps, your board can easily accomplish all of its business without taking up too much of everyone's time. While one or two members might be put off by these kinds of changes, most will be happy to have the extra time and the peace of mind that comes with knowing they can count on meetings to begin and end at predetermined times.
If your condo board could use some additional assistance or guidance from experts in the field, reach out to the team at Imperial Properties. We have developed a strong reputation for providing sound, effective condominium and residential management. Our team is a leader in the field because we offer unparalleled management expertise paired with exceptional service, knowledge, efficiency and cost effectiveness in serving our diverse residential, commercial and condominium client base.

Tor Einar Norbakk, CEO – We have just scratched the surface
March 2019,
Svenska Aerogel has left the start-up phase and is now a producing company with an internationally acclaimed product – Quartzene. The buildup of Master Pilot Plant enters the final stage and capacity increases significantly to meet the expected demand from the market. To drive this, the company has been strengthened with several key employees in 2018. In November, Tor Einar Norbakk took over the responsibility as CEO. The assignment – to lead the company further towards an industrial process industry and an internationalization.
48-year-old Tor Einar Norbakk has extensive experience from business and development of manufacturing processes at international level. He has held various positions at Sandvik where he has been active since 2001. Latest appointment as Managing Director and Territory Manager for Sandvik Mining & Rock Technology in Sweden and Denmark.
Questions to Tor Einar Norbakk:
What attracted you to Svenska Aerogel?
Everyone has an entrepreneur inside and Svenska Aerogel holds a fantastic innovation. For me, it is a great opportunity and a challenge to be a part of this. I will get use of all my skills and experiences from the manufacturing industry. Svenska Aerogel has the entire value chain in the company, although in a smaller format. All parts are in place and needs be developed at the right pace.
Where do you have your strengths as a leader and what will you contribute with?
Working with people is my driving force! The overall view is necessary and my role is to make optimal use of all resources and assets to achieve results. I set goals and deliver on the expectations in time.
It is a great opportunity for us to contribute to future products meeting sustainability requirements.
What challenges can you see?
Balancing capacity against market demands. We need to keep the right pace throughout the development in order to meet increasing customer demands. There is also a great challenge in prioritizing in the stream of possible applications we are facing. Today we have a clear focus.
It is important to choose applications where we can see the possibility of a quick market introduction. The best for us and our customers.
Many ongoing customer tests at different stages and now you are starting to see commercialized products. A repeat order was recently communicated – Quartzene for insulating plaster. What does that order mean for Svenska Aerogel?
An interesting and environmentally beneficial product that has reached the market. It has great potential to be used in larger contexts as it supports the EU ambition regarding energy savings in new and existing buildings. Insulating plaster is an innovative method for lowering energy consumption and it is aligned with Svenska Aerogel's environmentally friendly intentions.
What opportunities do you see for Svenska Aerogel in the future?
There are huge opportunities with our product Quartzene – and we have just scratched the surface!
The effects that Quartzene add to the end products are often interactions of desirable properties such as better performance, less material consumption and energy savings. The result is reduced environmental impact.
Svenska Aerogel is strong in R&D with high competent researchers working with our long-term projects. We have established several international collaborations with selected market partners and institutes. The outcome of these research projects will become a significant part of our portfolio over time.
The possibilities with our unique manufacturing process are also exciting. It is completely modular, which creates great flexibility in production and logistics. The production can be adapted to our customers' needs in our own Master Pilot Plant. Alternatively, through tailormade modules at customer facilities or in customer dense areas across the world. Possibilities that contributes to further streamline and reduce transport costs and other environmental impact.
We can contribute to future products meeting the requirements for sustainability. That keeps me focused and creates energy in our team

Our Post:
Afford is committed to providing person-centred activities that support the personal development and aspirations of our clients.
Programs To Suit the Needs of our Clients
So when Margaret, a client from our Jamisontown Day Program, suggested that her group incorporate yoga and meditation as a wind-down after their dance program each week, Team Leaders set to work to tailor the program to suit her needs.
Jamisontown Day Program's dance sessions are always energetic and a lot of fun. Music gets everyone in the mood for shaking their hips and moving to the beat and, along with great laughs and enjoyment, the session does also provide a wonderful opportunity to improve movement and fitness.
But after the dance session, some relaxation time is in order, so the group begin meditation and stretching, with instruction from staff member, Lisa.
Winding Down and Relaxing
After such energy and enthusiasm during the dance program, it's taken a few sessions for everyone in the group to get used to winding down through meditation, but now it's one of their favourite times in the program!
Together the group sit or lie down and listen to the calming tones of Lisa's voice as she talks them through stretching and relaxation.
After meditation, everyone feels relaxed and refreshed and ready to get on with other exciting programs on offer.

Krazy Coupon Guy: Sunday Shopping Report
A short report (more or less) on today's shopping trip.
Went to Albertson's, Lowe's, and Home Depot. Some news for the guys (and gals who want to act like guys or who actually wear the pants in family) regarding Lowe's/Home Depot. The grocery/tool photo shows most of the purchases with the plant photo completing the total for the day. Lowe's and Home Depot will match each others' prices if you bring in the ad. Plus, Lowe's will beat HD's price by 10%. HD - or BORG for you Star Trek fans - might do the same, but I didn't verify. BORG stands for Big Orange Retail Giant. "You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."
Albertson's was good to me today. I checked with CS before shopping to see if they would allow me to use my Walgreens Catalinas as payment. Josh (Asst. Mgr. I think) said "Yes"! So I proceeded with confidence. Confidence and a shopping list. And a calculator. And coupons. When I got to the checkout, the cashier whom I have had the pleasure of her services before (checkout services), said I couldn't use the Catalinas. Josh happened to be near and explained the following: IF it is a Catalina AND it is a Manufacturer's Coupon AND there is an address for Albertson's to send the coupon for reimbursement then Albertson's would accept them regardless of who issued it. My cashier mentioned she had denied an earlier attempt to do the same and was glad to know it could be done. I will be using her services (checkout services) again.
What I didn't buy were items that seemed too high even with coupons (I left the coupons on the shelf next to the products for some lucky, observant person who might use them). I substituted a store brand for an item which turned out to be less expensive even if I had used the coupon I had for the name brand item. So, Albertson's ring according the receipt: Coupons tendered $52.67; OOP $22.32. There was an in-store special of a free 1/2 gal of Silk soy milk up to $3.99 which appeared as a credit on the receipt. Silk was actually on sale for $3.49, resulting in an overage of $.50.
Home Depot had a BOGO sale (Sunday only) for up to 6 veg/herb plants in peat pots (buy 6 get 6). First, I went to Lowe's to see if they would honor the flyer's price (I had the flyer) and they did. So, I got an 18V drill which I had been waiting for to go on sale. Lowe's has a special now that includes a free 18V flashlight ($15.97) with the drill purchase. I needed a knob and hinges to finish the shed door. Plus, I had a 10% off coupon which I got from a Change of Address envelope at my local USPS. Coupon savings and free light at Lowe's: $28.13. So, $154.77 full price vs. $126.64 OOP.
Then to Home Depot to get more plants during their One Day Only sale. $9.17 price paid (plants BOGO) AND less 10% ($.87) with another Lowe's 10% off coupon which they accepted. So, for a total 16 potted plants (tomatoes, peppers, basil) I spent $18.84 with tax.
And, a confession, hint, tip, suggestion on how to get extra coupon inserts. For the last three Sundays in Jerome, I have visited my local Burger King which provides free papers for the diners to read during their fine dining experience. I have my usual - small coffee with one refill - for $1.37 with tax. I then read their Sunday paper, do the crossword in ink (I finish successfully 98% of the time without cheating), and gather up the coupon inserts (only SS for some reason) from the local papers (two copies) plus any store ads that appeal to me. After finishing and refilling my hot BK beverage, I drive across the road and buy a Statesman ($1.59 with tax) from a gas station and head home to peruse and file my treasures.
If in Boise on a Sunday, I go to Starbucks and gather coupon inserts from their used newspaper basket where previous customers have deposited their read papers for subsequent coffee drinkers to enjoy.
So, for all you Sunday church goers, there are some opportunities you may be missing. For you Sunday church goers who don't mind a relaxing coffee and gleaning coupon inserts from your local coffee shops, there is always repentance or denial, depending on your particular take on the whole appropriate things to do/not do on Sunday. Or, who might see you when you go in. It is possible that the gas you would consume to get out of your "sphere of recognition" might be more than the amount you would save by getting more coupons. You can decide.

I always feel guilty trying to sneak the coupons out of the newspapers at Starbucks. Good for you!

We are offering a class on the 28th at 7 pm... use the contact button on the header to email us for more info- or check back sometime tomorrow for a post with all the details. Also, you can use our tab that says coupon basics, and just dive into those!
A Catalina is a coupon that spits out of a box at the register after your transaction is over. Usually it is triggered by something that you buy....
Hope this helps!

It has been obvious to me that other people gleen the coupons from local coffee shops as well.
When I use to live nearby Michaels Craft store, I would always consider the fact that their 40 or 50 percent off of one item would be nice for my husband to have in his hot little hands as well.
He is a "closet" Krazie Coupon Guy. So, I would retreat to McDonalds to snatch up the above mentioned coupon and never did they have one. I would then drive to several other area coffee/dining outlets to no avail. There would be all of the regular ads, but the Michael's coupons were somehow always snatched out of the newspapers.
So. I am thinking there are certainly others on the same wave length!
Also, I am not feeling unfeminine or wanting to trade in my pantyhose for an electric drill just yet-BUT wondering if you saw the Lowe's coupons for $10 off a $50 purchase and $20 off a $100 purchase?
This really IS the good life huh!

Where did you find those Lowe's coupons? I had a $10 off 50 and a $25 off 250 but haven't seen the $20 off 100. My 10% coupons are nice, but 20% would be better. Twice better....

Joy again chats with Brian Abrahamson, an independent candidate for the Minnesota State House, District 22A. Brian ran as a Democrat in the primary, but was yet another victim of suspicious activity, coming in second. This time, Brian is running as an Independent. Not surprisingly, he again had pushback from the established parties, and Brian was shut out of debates with the other candidates.
He is a real progressive, whose top priorities are legalization of marijuana, Medicare for all, and free state college. He personally knows the tragic consequences of student loan debt. He supports a $15 minimum wage and repairing infrastructure, particularly the roads in his state which have been neglected for decades.
Brian is using a new app, Ten More Votes, which easily enables supporters and volunteers to help with his campaign. He also has a very helpful website which anyone can visit to learn about his platform, volunteer or make a donation. Watch the video for a special appearance by Brian's number one supporter!


text: It being 60 years since the unelected head of state took over the onerous tasks of leading this glorious nation, Cottingham Parish Council took it upon itself to buy some bunting in red, white and blue, very patriotic except it was probably made in China. Hundreds of yards of the stuff have been fluttering around noisily (it's plastic bunting!) since May I seem to recall. The sad thing is that the red was never a particularly dark shade, more of a light pink really, and that quickly faded to, well, white. If there's an analogy to be drawn from the state of these tattered rags and the state of the nation after 60 'glorious' years I leave that up to you.

You're in the way!
I'm in the way of the mad dash for the water. I'm blocking about eight large powerboats from getting to the launch, and they're not too happy about it. Working as fast as I can during the evenings, with black flies trying to eat me, I'm just about ready to say "screw it, move me". I know if I rush, I'm going to miss something stupid, and regret it later. She's all waxed, and painted, but I have some rudder issues. After painting the rudder a nice dark red, I did not protect it from the sun. Now, I have a big bubble on one side. Last night I cut out part of the bubble, and clamped the skin back in place. Tonight I'll finish the rudder, and with thursday off, maybe I'll get her in the water. Maybe. What is it with these flies!!
