Bob Newman is talking on the phone when his call-waiting tone clicks. He apologizes for the interruption, a hint of irritation in his voice, before checking to see who else is on the line. Upon his return, he explains, "It was Tom Tancredo," referring to the Republican Congressman from Colorado's Sixth District. "He'll call back."
How times have changed. Two months ago, Newman was all but unknown to the general public and certainly didn't spend his free time gabbing with elected officials, let alone making them wait until he's ready to gab. But shortly after the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Newman, a retired Marine gunnery sergeant living in Longmont, expressed his views about military issues on KOA, Denver's most powerful AM signal, and the impact of the appearance was such that the station subsequently signed him up and handed over unprecedented amounts of airtime. As a salaried commentator, he's presently a fixture on KOA's high-rated Colorado Morning News; a regular on Sports Zoo, the afternoon staple helmed by Scott Hastings; a frequent guest of conservative yakker Mike Rosen; and a leader of live Web chats at www.850koa.com that are attracting what program director Don Martin says are "really big numbers."
On top of that, Newman has gotten the attention of Tancredo, who's asked him to speak to the Immigration Reform Caucus, a Tancredo-founded organization whose membership includes fifty of his colleagues in the U.S. House, as well as Governor Bill Owens. Last week, Owens was waiting to speak on KOA about the U.S. being put on alert for more terrorism when he heard a package assembled by Newman and reporter Alex Stone pinpointing alleged gaps in security at Denver International Airport; among other things, they found an unguarded spot near a runway where terrorists could set up a "flak trap" capable of bringing down passenger planes. Afterward, Owens characterized the piece as "a very good job of investigative journalism."
Praise for Newman isn't universal, however. One local media executive derisively dubs him "G.I. Joe," an allusion to the tough-guy rhetoric that flows from him like water going over Niagara Falls; for instance, "There are plots out there that could make September 11 seem like an amateur drive-by shooting." Likewise, he peppers his conversations with casual references to things like "viral hemorrhagic fever" and "botulinum toxin," a deadly agent he says could kill millions. And on one recent morning, he maintained that if he encountered an unarmed Osama bin Laden in an Afghanistan cave, he'd like to think that he would put down any weapons he was carrying "and beat him to death." Newman says no one complained about this comment because "they were too busy nodding and saying, 'Yeah, I'd like to do that, too!'"
Meanwhile, certain folks at DIA and the Federal Aviation Administration grumble that Newman's not the aviation authority he sounds like -- an accusation Newman feels is part of a disinformation campaign being staged against him by these agencies. He's never claimed to be an aviation expert, he says; rather, "I am a terrorism expert and tactician. The extensive classified courses and training I underwent in the Corps to become qualified in this realm included a great deal of work in how terrorists conceive of, plan and undertake terrorist attacks, including attacks on airports and aircraft.
"The FAA and DIA are trying desperately to cover the horrendous security lapses uncovered by Alex Stone and me," he adds. "We knew full well that they would attempt this."
In an effort to ward off future assaults on Newman's credibility, KOA has posted a portion of his resumé on its Web site -- an extraordinary measure inspired in part by an unhappy experience with a previous military analyst (news director Jerry Bell swears he can't remember the guy's name) who was sacked by the station during the Gulf War when it was discovered that he'd vastly overstated his qualifications. This time around, program director Martin says he spent a solid week checking Newman's background and discovered, to his profound relief, that "he's everything he says he is."
Luckily for Martin, Newman has left quite a paper trail. Born in Washington, D.C., to a pair of law enforcers -- "My dad is a retired D.C. cop, and my mother was FBI; she was in fingerprints" -- he entered the University of Maine during the mid-'70s but realized after his sophomore year "that I was too immature to be in college. So the next day I joined the Marines, and they made a man out of me." After a couple of years in an infantry unit, Newman says, "I tried out for recon, the Marine equivalent of the Navy Seals." In this capacity, he did a tour in central Europe during the heyday of terrorist outfits like the Red Army Faction, the successor to the Baader-Meinhof Gang, before becoming a SERE (Survival Evasion Resistance Escape) instructor at a Navy facility that focused on fighting terrorism before fighting terrorism was cool. Later, he was deployed in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia during the Gulf War and served in special-operations units in places such as Israel ("We were in the Negev Desert -- a nasty little desert") before retiring in 1997.
Along the way, Newman has written a slew of columns and books about the two topics nearest and dearest to his heart. The first, predictably, is the military: He's penned several tomes for Paladin Press, including Marine Special Warfare and Elite Unit Tactics and Guerrillas in the Mist: A Battlefield Guide to Clandestine Warfare, with a foreword by Bob Brown, publisher of Boulder-based Soldier of Fortune magazine. But more surprisingly, Newman is also addicted to fly-fishing -- so much so that he's authored manuscripts such as Gray Ghosts & Lefty's Deceiver, a collection of interviews with fly-fishing all-stars, and articles printed in Field & Stream and similar publications.
The way Newman tells it, he was happily pursuing his writing career, which he supplemented with occasional security-consultant gigs, when the Trade Center collapsed. While absorbing the subsequent electronic and print coverage of the aftermath, he found himself fuming. "I got sick and tired of watching bogus information passed on -- information that was completely false, experts stating assumptions as fact. And since I know everybody listens to KOA, I decided to write them an e-mail and ask if they wanted someone who could give them straight information, with no spin."
That sounded good to Martin, and after determining that Newman wasn't just some bozo who'd watched all the Rambo movies, he put him in front of a microphone. The response was immediate, Martin says: "I put him on Colorado Morning News, and the phone lines just lit up. We never take phone calls on CMN, but we do for him. Then I scheduled him for an hour on Rosen, and Rosen kept him for three, and an hour on the Zoo, and Scott kept him for four.
"Bob gets radio," Martin continues. "He's precise and concise, and he speaks very well. Plus, he's actually worked against terrorists and been dropped behind enemy lines. He's been shot at and shot back. That's the difference between him and some of the other experts you see."
Newman makes similar distinctions among analysts. He praises ex-military men like General Barry McCaffrey, a consultant for NBC, even though their style is considerably more taciturn than his. But he has little patience for the observations put forth by professors who've been featured prominently on newscasts and talk shows since September 11. "Academicians have a wealth of knowledge, but no hands-on experience," he says.
That hasn't stopped schools from marketing their brain trust to the media. The University of Denver has been especially aggressive in this respect, even assembling a Web page -- du.edu/news/response/experts.html -- that allows news directors to shop among its staffers to find the right pundit for any occasion. Channel 9 takes full advantage of this resource, regularly quizzing three DU staffers on the roster -- Jonathan Adelman, Shaul Gabbay and Ved Nanda. According to the site, both Adelman and Gabbay are working on books that touch on terrorism, and odds are good that Nanda is thinking about doing likewise.
Patti Dennis, Channel 9's news director, says she likes to use these speakers because "they have credentials, knowledge and the ability to communicate through the medium of television, and they can express information in a way that's accurate and important, not inflamed" -- a remark that could be seen as a knock against Newman, whose only appearance on the station took place on Dennis's day off. She's not opposed to using former military personnel -- since September 11, Channel 9 has twice interviewed General Norman Schwarzkopf, who resides in Telluride -- but she believes they're not always the best communicators. "A lot of military people are pretty close to the vest when talking about anything that might compromise strategies, which I think is appropriate," she says.
In contrast, Newman believes in maximum disclosure, holding back only on data that might endanger lives here and abroad. He boasts about being "ten days ahead of the rest of the media" in terms of identifying weapons systems being operated in Afghanistan and ridicules DIA officials for refusing to cooperate with the security report compiled by him and reporter Stone. The airport's public-relations office was approached several times for comments before the story was broadcast but eventually declined. After the piece ran, the office put out a press release stating that "revealing details of our security program or plans is not in the best interest of the traveling public. Therefore, we will not discuss any details of our security program at DIA." This reply strikes Newman as not just counterproductive, but stupid: "They could have turned this into positive PR. That's the kind of thing you learn in college-freshman journalism class. But they completely botched it."
DIA will likely receive a return visit from Newman, and he probably won't divulge his new findings in a politically correct way: He recently said the typical security screener at the airport is "from a Third World country, with a seventh-grade education and an I.Q. of 75." Meanwhile, Martin has agreed to give Newman a weekend fly-fishing show, in the hopes of finding out if he can go beyond discussing missiles and the Mujahideen. "What it builds into will be up to Bob," Martin says. "Some guys, all they can do is talk war, and when the war's over, guess what: You go home and write fly-fishing books again. But he's a pretty vivacious guy. Who knows what he'll be able to do?"
Either way, Newman is confident he'll have a job. "The war won't last forever," he says. "But I'll tell you what: It's going to last for a very long time."
Taking a powder: No anthrax has been found in Colorado media offices, but last month there was an anthrax scare at a Rocky Mountain News plant -- one that the paper never reported.
Jim Nolan, spokesman for the Denver Newspaper Agency, which handles business operations for the News and the Denver Post, says that shortly after anthrax was found on the East Coast, a worker at the News's Fox Street press facility (where Westword is also printed) spotted a powdery substance in a room there. The employee reported this to a manager, who called the Denver Fire Department. A haz-mat crew sent to the scene soon discovered that the mysterious material was harmless paper dust.
In Nolan's view, this story wasn't newsworthy because "the authorities very quickly determined that there was not anything to worry about. No one was evacuated, and the presses kept running." But the News may have had other motives for keeping things quiet -- like not wanting its customers to worry that picking up the paper would prove fatal.
This wasn't an idle concern. On October 8, after anthrax was identified at Boca Raton, Florida's, American Media Inc., where the offices of the National Enquirer and several other supermarket tabloids are located, a caller to Larry King's CNN talk show asked if readers could be infected with anthrax by touching an issue. AMI tried to squelch such fears with an October 10 press release noting that none of the plants where the Enquirer and its sister publications are printed are located in Florida. "We were also assured by public-health experts that you cannot get anthrax off of the newspaper," adds AMI spokesman Gerald McKelvey. Over the next few days, calls from concerned readers and retailers rapidly diminished, which suggests to McKelvey that it was better to address the issue than dodge it. "Is there any other way?" he asks.
The New York Times took a similar tack after staff writer Judith Miller received a letter filled with powder (it was later shown not to be anthrax); the paper published an item notifying readers that editions aren't printed anywhere near the office where the tainted missive was received. Later, the paper was contacted by numerous readers worried about a powdery substance some found in the pages of the Times's Sunday magazine. As noted by Kathy Park, manager of public relations for the New York Times Company, this substance was "a cornstarch product, an anti-slip agent used in the printing process. It's perfectly safe, but because of the calls we received, we switched to another product that's not powdery in nature." Although the cornstarch derivative is still being used on some inserts and circulars that appear in newspapers across the country, many facilities are following the Times's lead and discontinuing its use.
The New York Post has also been up front about anthrax matters, beginning with a cover photo of an assistant to the paper's editor who developed the cutaneous, or skin, form of anthrax on her middle finger: The shot shows her holding up the bandaged digit in bird-flipping position under the headline "Anthrax This." Spokeswoman Suzi Halpin says the paper made it clear that its printing facility is in the Bronx, not Manhattan, and has kept the public abreast of every development via press releases. On November 1, for instance, one such document stated that "this afternoon, a Post employee who works in the paper's accounting department opened an envelope that appeared to contain a white, powder-like substance." The contents of the letter were still being tested at the time of the release, but the Post didn't use this fact as an excuse to hide the incident.
Still, the DNA's Nolan isn't second-guessing the decision to keep the News's powder scare from the public. As he puts it, "There was absolutely no cause for alarm."
It would have been nice to know that earlier.
Plea, plea, plea: The legal odyssey of Scott McDonald is nearing its end.
- Local
- Community
- Journalism
Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
On November 5, the former managing editor of Channel 31, who cajoled media figures such as self-proclaimed troubleshooter Tom Martino into making questionable or bogus investments ("OutFoxed," May 10), made a deal with prosecutors, pleading guilty to securities fraud. McDonald could be sentenced to between four and twelve years in the pokey, but because he has no prior record and has agreed to pay back over $150,000 to victims, he's much likelier to receive probation at his December 21 sentencing. According to McDonald, who admits that he's had a hard time keeping a job because of adverse publicity from the case, "I've acknowledged responsibility for everything I've done up to this point, and now I'm committed to making full restitution to everyone involved."
Leave it to beaver: Make sure you examine the Travel section of the November 4 Denver Post very closely. You could get an eyeful.
The section's cover story, "Jack the Ripper's Walk," features a shot from the movie From Hell showing the Ripper walking away from a female victim lying on a road -- but only after printing up thousands of copies did anyone notice that in the shot, the dead woman's skirt is pushed up, revealing what appears to be the same body part Sharon Stone displayed in Basic Instinct. Technicians later tinkered with the photo to extend the skirt over the corpse's crotch, but there's still a chance some of the more revealing images made it onto the streets.
Talk about a news flash.

Uhem *Clears Throat*
Anybody there?!
So, Uhem, What's up Ladies and Gents?!!
I know I know, What are y'all thinking…Yes, I'm alive. Barley made it out from the other end but yeah alive.
So where was I all this time?
*scratches head*
Wellllll….I wish I had a perfectly good explanation for it…I sat here thinking for the longest time to come up with a perfect explanation but there isn't any, to be honest. Or maybe there is I just can't put it to words. I just needed time and space to clear my head, or so I thought. One day I just decided to get away from everything connected to this blog, any related accounts, everything. So I did. Why I didn't inform beforehand? Well I just came out from hiatus like what? A week or two ago from this? It just felt inappropriate to go again and make a big deal out of it all. I challenged myself to be away for one week only, just to set a realistic goal, then I found out I can do this so it just extended as finals came up and now how long has it been? One month and 20 days? Well who was counting anyways *Puft*
I can say I had final exams, but those were way later in the start of February, January was a whirlwind too. I didn't expect 2015 to be awesome or good to me, All I wanted was for it to be better than 2014 at least. Guess what? It proved to be way more shittier than 2014 and it's just the start of the year. Hah! What can I say…JUST-MY-FUCKING-LUCK ! -_-
(This post is going to have shit load of sarcasm because that's how I feel since my life has been unicorns shooting rainbows out of their assess since the day this year started, please notice the happiness dripping out of my words! ^.^ )
So did this break from blogging do me any good? Aiiiinnnn, Not so much. I'm stuck right where I was before, same old same old. Except now I have some more shit for me to whine about here. Hola!!! SO EXCITED -__-
Let the whining begin:
I worked my ass off for finals. I think it's safe to say I haven't studied so hard in my life before. I'm used to sacrificing my sleep for exams, but usually that's just a week before the exam and during the exam season but this time around I started prepping three full weeks beforehand. I swear to God sitting from 3 am to 6 pm and onwards continuously in the same spot studying like you are a donkey for so many weeks is such a great feeling! Like honestly I wouldn't even believe myself but time flies by when you sit with a course book in front of you at 3 am with so much to study and suddenly it's 6 pm and whatt??!! I have been sitting at the same fucking spot for so long??? I have developed acute lumbar back pain which I'm sure is ready to turn chronic If I don't start taking care of it.
Not to mention the compliments I've gotten on my dark circles, "Hey your Mascara/Eye Liner is running down your eyes"
Me: *Looks in the mirror* And to my absolute horror, "Oh These….are actually my dark circles." That is how deep they have impinged themselves on my face that now it seems like makeup has run down my eyes. Another awesome feeling to have! #SoGrateful! :') (Girls, any good concealers you are willing to recommend here would be of great help 😉 )
Just a week before my finals were about to start, I got ghastly sick. I have never been this sick in my life before. Either it was my mental exhaustion taking a physical toll on me or someone did voodoo on me for sure. Also I got to know how fucking great it feels to throw up. Believe it or not I had not vomited since I was very very little, totally forgot how It felt, but hey life was like "what, you forgot? Puft, Let me remind you bitch" So then that started. (Well it was partially my fault, took a heavy antibiotic with an almost empty stomach. In my defense, I said 'Almost' not completely empty.)
What? You think it ends there? Oh no that was just the start of my health decline graph. As I have never been so sick in my life before, let alone during exams, and that DURING FINALS, I just could not afford to be sick, I had no choice but to keep studying, no adequate rest and shit so I had to take bunch of pills to keep myself going. I had not taken so many pills in my life before as I had to take in one go at one time during the day in the past few weeks. Couple of 650 mg's antibiotics against fever, cold, sore throat and whatnot. Then just a day before my Biochemistry exam I had severe respiratory congestion. #FeelingBlessed :')
I could not breathe and I totally thought I was gonna die or worst not being able to give the exam the next day which I worked so hard for. Anyways I did give the exam somehow, To be honest it's still a little blur though, Just between you and me, I think it's because I was a bit high from all the pills.
So what I have ended up with is a gag reflex of a two years old. My Gag reflex has become so strong I can throw up on a drop of a hat now, like seriously. Oh and what a marvelous feeling it is to have experienced after so long and so frequently now! Just like oozing out rainbows ! Yaeyyyy for that! \o/ #SweetLife -_-
So throughout this time I was bound to have number of mental breakdowns which I would categorize as follows:
#1 Absolutely Out-Of-Hand Emotions
#2 Questioning the Higher Providence
#3 Stage of Acceptance
#4 The most Dangerous of them all: Meredith Breakdown!
Oh and that's only tip of the iceberg shit that happened during the time I was gone. I'd rather skip the other shit filled details in my life that happened along the way, they are not half as fun to write about. So in a nutshell I'm completely and utterly, physically, more so mentally exhausted by now.
I opened my blog after so long aaaaaaaaaaaandddddd
A huge thanks to Jithin, Nad , Rob, Upasana for checking up on me while I was away by leaving such sweet and concerning comments for me to read when I came back.

Reality Pump Studios today unveiled Sacrilegium, a survival horror game which is hopefully just as scary as my attempts to say that name out loud.
Its premise certainly sounds...different.
The story is about Alex, a 20-year Californian - smart, friendly and independent. She's a college student that while fully aware of her breathtaking beauty, she never is looking to use it to her advantage. Keeping in shape with combat and self-defense training, she's honed specific martial art skills that will come to her aid during her perilous journey through the province of "Sacrilegium". Being the adventurous type, she jumps head first into a maelstrom of events, descending with her friends into a world beyond the known reality. The complex and multifaceted action drives the young heroine half around the globe, from the foggy banks of San Francisco to the remotest corners of Europe.
It's coming to the PC, PS3, 360 and Mac.
UPDATE - Seems while the publishers are German and the game's website is in German, the developers are actually Polish!

CHARLESTON, SC - A first-half goal from Corey Hertzog gave Vancouver Whitecaps FC the lead, however a pair of second-half strikes from Houston Dynamo in quick succession saw the 'Caps fall 2-1 in their first defeat of preseason.
Head coach Martin Rennie dressed a young squad for Wednesday's tilt, with many players given the opportunity to prove they belong on the first team squad come opening day next Saturday, March 2. The Blue and White played as a strong cohesive unit for the first half, but the young 'Caps were unable to rebound from seeing the tables during a two-minute span in the second half.
Overall, Rennie was pleased by the performance despite the defeat.
"Overall, I was very encouraged about the match," remarked Rennie. "For most of the match we were doing well. We were in the lead up until the end. Obviously, we're disapointed we lost as close as we did given that we hardly gave up any chances throughout the match."
Ten minutes in, Dynamo striker Cam Weaver had a great chance in close to give Houston the lead, but 'Caps goalkeeper Brad Knighton was there to make the save.
Minutes later, Dynamo defender Bobby Boswell made a cross over to midfielder Giles Barnes, who shot wide and missed another opportunity for the Dynamo to open the scoring.
The 'Caps had their first solid chance to go ahead in the 17th minute when midfielder Russell Teibert hit the post on a left-footed shot from the top of the box. A few minutes later, it was Camilo with the chance to give the 'Caps the lead with a long run down the right side of the field and a shot that fell wide.
Whitecaps FC kept pressing and finally went up 1-0 on 27 minutes when striker Corey Hertzog intercepted a poor back pass and slid it home past goalkeeper Tally Hall. The play was eerily reminiscent of Hertzog's first goal of preseason at the start of the month when he also picked off a backwards pass and scored against this same Houston team.
Early in the second half, Alex Dixon nearly leveled the match, but his shot went just wide and the match remained 1-0 in favour of Whitecaps FC.
The 'Caps and Dynamo each had chances midway through the half, but neither team was able to capitalize. Later in the match, Whitecaps FC were given four consecutive corner kicks but were again unable to convert the opportunities.
With 15 minutes to go, fortunes changed for Rennie's side. In the 75th minute, Dynamo midfielder Brian Ching found striker Will Bruin for an equalizer, leaving the match at 1-1. Barely two minutes later, the men in Orange took the lead with an Adam Moffat bomb from 40-plus yards out.
Despite a frantic final ten minutes, the match ended with a score of 2-1 in favour of Houston.
Whitecaps FC will look to rebound against Chicago Fire on Saturday afternoon in their final match of preseason. Should the 'Caps come out victorious, they will give themselves a chance to claim their first Carolina Challenge Cup trophy.
Following Saturday's match, Whitecaps FC will return to Vancouver to prepare for their MLS season opener next Saturday, March 2, at BC Place against Canadian rivals Toronto FC. Tickets remain available but fans are encouraged to act now to ensure their place at the match. For tickets to the home opener, visit whitecapsfc.com/tickets.

Islam: A Religion Custom Made For Men
By Amil Imani
One may wonder then why is it that millions of Muslim women meekly submit to their subservient rank and thank Allah for it. These women are virtually imprinted by their parents and the clergy from birth to adopt the gender inequality as well as the entire pathological Islamic ethos.
In Islamic societies, freedom of expression, worship, and assembly are taken away. Women are indeed treated as chattel. Young girls are subjected to barbaric genital mutilation to make them sex slaves and birth channels without the ability to enjoy intercourse. Minors are executed, adulterers are stoned to death, thieves have their limbs amputated, and much, much more. Isn't that everyone's idea of paradise?
This misogynist religion of Allah is custom-made for the savage male. A faithful follower of Allah is allowed to have as many as four permanent wives — and replace any of them at any time he wants — as well as an unlimited number of one night or one-hour-stand that he can afford to rent. But, woe unto a woman if she even has a single love affair with another man. Nothing less than death by stoning is her just punishment.

The next time Jack Steyn travels to a tennis conference to pick up an award, he has an interesting anecdote to begin his acceptance speech.
"Have I told you the one about the tiny tornado that touched down on the court where I was giving a lesson?"
The 46-year-old from South Africa was giving a tennis lesson at the Bradenton Country Club, where he is the head pro, under threatening skies Tuesday night when a small tornado appeared out of nowhere.
"Literally 10 seconds and it was upon us," Steyn said about the tornado that dropped from the sky and wreaked havoc on the courts. "We didn't have much time to think."
Another 10 seconds and it was over. But it won't soon be forgotten by Steyn, and several of the club's members who happened to be there for the show.
After passing by three courts where 12 players were competing in doubles matches, the tiny tornado touched down on the court where Steyn was giving a lesson. It then jumped to the next court where Ben Adrian was playing, leaving a hole where it hit.
In those wild 10 seconds, the tornado sucked all the clay from the courts, then it took down a nearby oak tree.
"It's something you will never forget," said Steyn. "It was like the Wizard of Oz.
"My first thought was for the safety of the members. I screamed for them to get inside and then it was, 'Wow. I can't believe what I am seeing.' "
It was a little after 6 o'clock and the seven courts at the Bradenton Country Club were filled with players when the sky turned wicked. Thunderstorms have been rampant the past few weeks but this event suddenly looked more ominous.
"We had this big black cloud circling around us and I remember looking up and thinking that this thing looked different," Steyn said. "It almost looked like a UFO above us, circling in a way.
"Then the thing just hit the court. I remember running and seeing chairs fly."
Though he yelled, players could not hear his voice. He watched as material was swept up off the court.
"Clay just went flying, like 20 meters up in the air. It was all taken off the court. I was flabbergasted. It was pretty spectacular.
"Fortunately it didn't hit the three courts where the 12 guys were playing."
The storm hung around a few minutes longer and as the tornado threatened to drop from the sky again, it was caught on video.
It is not the first time a tornado has hit Bradenton Country Club. Newspaper accounts tell of a small tornado that hit the club on Jan. 24, 1979 and did some minor damage.
It has been quite a month for Steyn, who has been teaching tennis at Bradenton Country Club for the past six years.
In his third year as District 8 president, Steyn received the Florida District President of the Year award at the Florida United States Professional Tennis Association conference in West Palm Beach recently.
Nate Griffin, the tennis director at River Strand Country Club in Bradenton, was honored as the District 8 Professional of the Year.
Steyn grew up in South Africa and then worked in London before taking a tennis teaching position managing a club in Key Biscayne.
Several years ago he visited the area with his wife, Catherine Moye, who was taking a Pilates certification test.
"I fell in love with the area and began looking for a job here," Steyn said.
Six years ago tennis director Laurie Tinnell convinced Steyn to join her at Bradenton Country Club.
"It's the best thing that happened to me," he says.

We can appreciate a burger at just about any price point, but far too often, the upscale restaurant versions fail to live up to expectations. That's not at all the case with Perle Wine Bar's French Onion Dip Burger, a glorious mashup from chef Rob Lam that explodes with umami. The thick, juicy patty rests simply on a toasted, soft milk bun with melted gruyere and caramelized onions. On the side, there's a deeply jammy French onion soup for dunking, French dip-style. Of course, there are many reasons to visit this Montclair Village destination, including an impressive wine list and the pure talent of Lam, who helmed the San Francisco Asian fusion restaurant Butterfly for 15 years. But the burger's combination is genius, hearty, and 100 percent worth the higher-end restaurant price of $16 — and a small salad on the side makes it feel like a complete meal.

This is another healthy and easy kosher recipe from the Magen David Yeshivah Chef at Home gourmet kosher cookbook(page 206). I made it for a Sukkot meal, but of course its great for any Jewish holiday menu, or Shabbat meal. Since I was voted to cook the meal for the second night of Sukkot (always so HARD because everything has to be done from the day before!) I cooked the rice and the mushrooms in advance, and last minute re-sauteed the mushrooms and adding in the fresh baby spinach till it wilted.
I multiplied this recipe by 4 because I was having a lot of company and I also added in a cup of cooked wild rice which was not in the original recipe.
Kosher Ingredients:
- 1 cup uncooked brown rice
- 1 cup COOKED wild rice according to the instructions on the bag
- 2 cups Imagine No- Chicken Broth
- 1 medium onion
- 1 pound (total) portobella and button mushrooms, sliced
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 bag fresh cleaned baby spinach leaves
- Combine washed rice and broth in a saucepan and bring to a boil, stir, reduce heat cover and simmer about 45 minutes till cooked.
- In another skillet, saute chopped onion, mushrooms and garlic till tender. Stir in lemon juice and oregano.
- Right before serving, re-heat mushroom mixture and add in spinach until wilted- don't overcook or you will lose the pretty bright green color of the fresh spinach.
- Toss brown rice with cooked wild rice, and mushroom and spinach mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste.

God is with the Jews!
concerning the love affair of Christians with the modern-day state of Israel
It's clear you fail to recognize that Christian Zionist love is for the Word of God that we see wonderfully fulfilled in the modern state of Israel.
Your Jew hatred blinds you to God's faithfulness, power and grace in restoring Judah to the Promised Land in preparation for their repentance and the return of the King of the Jews.
The REAL JESUS Can't Return Until...
... consider that Israel has hundreds of nukes and is ready to use them if she is threatened ...
Oh, you mean like the US and Britain and France, to name a few? Why the selective concern? Objective observers note how irrational Jew haters prove themselves to be.
Just how many of your righteous Jew friends believe in Jesus?
Only a chosen few, just like the Bible foretold. Same goes for our professing Christian nations of Gentilized Israelites who worship a counterfeit Christ and have fallen for another gospel.
Herbert Armstrong was a godly man but he never advocated subservience to the modern state of Israel like you are implying.
Your inferiority complex is glaring, as I've never taught any "subservience" to our Jewish brethren but call for restoration and reconciliation between British-Israelites and Jews, just like the Bible does.
Interesting, nevertheless, is biblical prophecies do reveal that ultimately all will acknowledge God is with the Jews (who will have embraced Yeshua by that time) and with their biblical Sabbath and festivals - unlike the baptized paganism of counterfeit Christianity that composes the Babylonian Mystery religion.
Genesis 49:8
"Judah, you are he whom your brothers shall praise; Your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies; Your father's children shall bow down before you.
It looks like our future "subservience" to our Jewish brethren isn't so bad, according to the Scriptures, does it?
Zechariah 8:23
"Thus says the LORD of hosts: 'In those days ten men [representatives of the 10 tribes of Israel?] from every language of thenations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.""
So the tribes of Israel will acknowledge Judah as a leader among us, and other nations will acknowledge collective Israel and Judah, all 12 Tribes of Israel, as the Servant Nation of God or be punished and/or destroyed.
See - I represent our Great Creator God, the God of the Bible, the God of Israel and speak His plain truth:
Isaiah 60
10 "The sons of foreigners shall build up your walls,
And their kings shall minister to you;
For in My wrath I struck you,
But in My favor I have had mercy on you.
11 Therefore your gates shall be open continually;
They shall not be shut day or night,
That men may bring to you the wealth of the Gentiles,
And their kings in procession.
12 For the nation and kingdom which will not serve you shall perish,
And those nations shall be utterly ruined.
you are of the John Hagee type.
No, he's a Protestant who I've read thinks the Jews can be saved without acknowledging Yeshua. I don't believe that nonsense. At least he knows this much: it's the Promised Land of ISRAEL - not some accursed "Palestine!"
Christians Reject "Palestine" for the Promised Land of Israel
And stop claiming that anyone who criticizes Israel is a "Jew Hater"
I've never claimed that anyone who criticizes Israel is a Jew hater, as I criticize Israel and Judah often but I offer constructive criticism - unlike you with your selective and irrational attitudes and insane jealousy about and against the Jews.
John 8
37I know that you are [physical] descendants of Abraham [contrary to those who wickedly teach otherwise]; yet you look for an opportunity to kill me, because there is no place in you for my word. 38I declare what I have seen in the Father's presence; as for you, you should do what you have heard from the Father.'
39 They answered him, 'Abraham is our father.' Jesus said to them, 'If you were Abraham's children [spiritually, not just physically], you would be doing what Abraham did, 40but now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did. 41You are indeed doing what your father does.' They said to him, 'We are not illegitimate hildren; we have one father, God himself.' 42Jesus said to them, 'If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now I am here. I did not come on my own, but he sent me. 43Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot accept my word. 44You are from your father the devil, and you choose to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. 46Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? 47Whoever is from God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear them is that you are not from God.'
Yes, that's what Jesus said to the religious leaders of His day, and He would say the same and more to professing Christian leaders today! (1 John 2:4).
Do You Prefer TRADITION Over Truth?
Is the Plain Truth Too Strong?
You fail, as many are guilty of who are irrational Jew haters, of learning to rightly divide the Word of truth.
2 Timothy 2:15
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Did Jesus Call Jews the Children of the Devil?
Jesus acknowledged that Abraham is the father of the Jews physically, but not always spiritually (John 8:37, 39, 42, 44). The same can be said and is true about all Twelve Tribes of Israel. In fact, the commission of the Two Witnesses - in the spirit of Elijah - is to restore our relationship with our Fathers (Abraham, Isaac and Jacob) and thereby through their true religion reconcile us to our Heavenly Father (Malachi 4:6; Isa. 49:5-6).
Romans 11
25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written:
"The Deliverer will come out of Zion,
And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;
27 For this is My covenant with them,
When I take away their sins."
28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. 30 For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, 31 evn so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy. 32 For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.
33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!
34 "For who has known the mind of the LORD?
Or who has become His counselor?"
35 "Or who has first given to Him
And it shall be repaid to him?"
36 For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen.
Instead of always downing our Jewish brethren, you ought to pray and do what you can to see that the true gospel of the Kingdom, the true Yeshua, is presented to them to help clear up the confusion counterfeit Christianity has shamefully spread among them.

I decided to rewatch all búp bê barbie phim chiếu rạp and write reviews for them. Obviously, I wanted to start with this one because it was the first búp bê barbie movie I saw as a kid. Everything in review below is my opinion only and you're welcome to have a different one. I also wanted to say in advance, English is not my first language so I am sorry for any mistakes. Before I start the review of the movie, I wanted to say a few words about its original cover. I tình yêu it. I think it's very simple, but also very classic. Clara look extremaly beautiful on it. I remember when I saw it as a kid, I fall in tình yêu with it in seconds. What's your opinion on it? Now, let's start with the review.
búp bê barbie in the Nutcracker was the first movie in the franchise and it was probably made on the budget lower than the tiếp theo movies. I've read several opinions according to which it is the weakest búp bê barbie movie when it comes to animation. I don't agree with that, but I can see why some people think that way. Watching the movie, bạn just see it's not that detailed. But for me it has its charm and I can't imagine this movie in any other animation. Locations in this production are wonderful and I especially tình yêu what they did with colours. I tình yêu the colour contrasts in this movie, from dark but warm Clara's home, to cold places covered in snow and finally my favourite, the bright and jolly Sugar mận Princess' island and the place where Clara and Eric picked apples. Clara looked so amazing in these scenes. All the characters in the movie have very unique thiết kế but Clara is my favourite. I think this is the movie that búp bê barbie looked the most like Barbie. She looks just like doll, extremaly beautiful. And can I just say her thiết kế as Sugar mận Princess is probably my favourite hairstyle and dress búp bê barbie wore in any movie? It looks so pretty! Designs for Parthenia are simple, but it works here, since they are simply beautiful. 9/10
I can't be the only person who thinks that Nutcracker is on totally higher level than other búp bê barbie movies? I tình yêu the story it is based on, and while it is in no way faithful adaptation, I think the búp bê barbie version is even better. I am grateful for the changes they made, because it is my favourite adaptation of that tale/ballet ever. In the entire movie, I won't be able to pick even one scene that would bore me. I can watch this movie thousand times and it is always interesting and enjoyable for me. I tình yêu the morals of the story and how they are delivered. Somehow this movie also feels thêm mature for me than the others. I also really tình yêu how relationships in this movie are written. Clara and Eric are quite possible my favourite búp bê barbie couple. Well, I will decide on that after I rewatch all the movies. There were some missing elements in the plot that I feel could make the movie better, but I will talk thêm about it in the tiếp theo section. Honestly, I can't imagine the better start for the búp bê barbie movie series than this. 9/10
I tình yêu Clara. The movie doesn't have a quote, but its lesson is that if you're kind, clever, Công chúa tóc xù and true, anything is possible, and I think Clara's example teaches that lesson very good. My favourite Clara's moments are when she is left on the island alone and now everything depends on her. I think she really proves herself as the wonderful heroine. One thing I would like to see though, were her feelings about leaving family behind, when she decided to stay in Parthenia. Eric is another great character. I wish they would hiển thị him as the unresponsible prince, his development would seem even better than. chuột King is a great villain, as he really give me that dangerous feeling. Pimm is really funny and he together with Clara's brother Tommy are two characters I would like to know thêm about. However, characters who totally lấy trộm, đánh cắp the hiển thị are Major Mint and Captain kẹo and I think I am not the only one with that opinion. I would gladly watch another movie about them. xin chào Mattel, where is Nutcracker's sequel? Well, maybe it's better if they don't make one. 8/10
Well, what can I say, the âm nhạc is gorgeous. The Nutcracker ballet âm nhạc is so beautiful. I can listen to it for hours. nghề viết văn this, I actually decided I will listen it for sleep tonight, ha ha. My favourite track is when Eric and the Sugar mận Princess dance before her return to home, and of course the moment when they are separated. I always cry during that part, the âm nhạc is so emotional. 10/10
Instead of weird dances from Mariposa & The Fairy Princess, the Nutcracker gave us wonderful dance sequences. The ballet scenes shown after chuột King's defeat are beautiful, they are so amazing to watch. I rewatched that scene so many times. Once again, Clara and Eric's dance part was my favourite. I also tình yêu the subtle scenes in which faeries try to make Clara dance. 10/10
CONCLUSION: Absolutely Fantastic
It is not my favourite búp bê barbie movie, but I think it's only because I can relate to some other phim chiếu rạp more. However, I truly believe búp bê barbie in the Nutcracker is the franchise's biggest masterpiece. Everything about this movie, whether it's script, âm nhạc hoặc characters, is absolutely wonderful and I can't imagine anyone who would not like this movie. Even though I have a big sentiment for this movie, I believe my highly positive opinion about it is in no way biased. Before this review, I haven't watched this movie for a very long time and I was afraid it will be a little boring for me now, but once again I was surprised to enjoy it as much as I did when I was a kid. Now I actually want to rewatch it tomorrow, and probably ngày after tomorrow. Hope bạn enjoyed my review and will check the tiếp theo one.

We must be getting old, here at Routing By Rumor world headquarters, because we're not spotting deceptive consumer practices as quickly as we used to. If you're a regular visitor to these parts, you've heard us complaining about manufacturers who downsize their products, and about manufacturer's practices we've termed "deception engineering".
Case in point… When last month's "Costco Connection" advertising and propaganda publication arrived (they call it a "lifestyle magazine" – believe that, and we have an "infomercial" we want you to watch), we found great news on page 52 (View the April edition of Costco Connection here). Costco announced, in a two-page article, that while other brands of tuna fish were shrinking their cans from six ounces to five ounces, Costco was increasing the size of their "Kirkland Signature" house brand of tuna fish, from six ounces to seven ounces. You don't read good news like that every day. Sounds like they're making an already good value even better. Break out the mayonnaise and strike up the band. Happy days are here again!
Or are they?
It turns out that it's good news for Costco, but bad news for Costco members (and, we suspect, for those cute little tuna fishies). While it's true that they have increased the size of their Kirkland Signature tuna fish by 16.6%, to seven ounces, consumers are not getting more tuna for their money. The article in their Costco Connection magazine somehow forgot to mention the fact that the price per can actually increased even more than the size of the can! Bottom line: You get more tuna per can, but the price per ounce has increased.
Silly us. We thought we might be getting more tuna fish for the same price. In actuality, while the size of the cans was increased a whopping 16.6%, the price per can has increased an even more whopping 20%. Packs of eight 6-ounce cans had sold for $9.99 in area Costco Wholesale warehouses. Now that they have introduced packs of eight 7-ounce cans, Costco has raised the selling price to $11.99, a 20% increase. By the way, didja ever notice how most grocery items at Costco seem to be sized so that the average price per package is around $10 or $12 ? Throw 9 or ten items in your cart, and you just spent at least $100. But we guess that's the whole idea of shopping in a "warehouse" club. And why does the price of everything have to end in ".99", ie: $9.99, $11.99, $14.99 ? We realize that Costco didn't invent that pricing strategy, but if you're shopping in a place like Costco, which says it caps it's margin** (see below) at 14%, it seems like a suspicious practice to cynical little us. Like maybe if their normal markup dictates a selling price of $12.35, it gets rounded UP to $12.99, just because someone at Costco likes the number 99, and rounding it up to an even $13.00 might seem, well, excessive. Yes, we know that 13 is not an even number, but you get the point. Besides, 1300 IS an even number, which is sort of odd, when you stop and think about it. Then again, maybe we're paranoid, and when they have an item that should sell for $12.35, they decide to give their members a break, and round the price down to $11.99. Yeah, right. All we know is that if you look at your receipt the next time you shop at Costco, just about everything except random-weight packages of meat, poulty, fish, etc., will end in ".99". But even those random-weight items will have a unit price ending in ".99", such as $5.99 per pound.
But then, there are a lot of odd things at Costco, like the fact that they will accept any credit card in your wallet, as long as it is from American Express. And the fact that they don't offer grocery bags, so you end up throwing 500 loose items into your car in the parking lot. And the fact that they won't accept any manufacturer's cents-off coupons, unless they are distributed by Costco themselves. And the fact that they have pretty limited hours of operation, especially for the lowest-cost membership holders. And the fact (according to this New York Times article), that Costco refuses to accept food stamps (now issued as debit cards) for purchases. And the fact that you'll find horrifically environment-unfriendly packaging of many small items (especially electronic items) at Costco, which doesn't seem to be getting Costco members too upset. We're talking huge plastic blister packs (which can't be recycled, at least where we live), or combination plastic and cardboard blister packs, so that these small items are less likely to be stolen. In our opinion, some of the terribly excessive packaging at Costco and other warehouse-type retailers qualifies as a crime against the planet, even if it doesn't happen to be illegal.
Now, we'll admit that we aren't going to stop buying Costco tuna fish. It's actually excellent quality tuna. It is quite possibly the best quality tuna we have ever found, at any price. But those good folks in Seattle must think their customers are idiots. To be sure, the price per ounce has increased only slightly, and it's still a good value. But shamelessly hyping the increased size of their cans of tuna fish, and not mentioning that it's now more expensive and was actually a better value before they increased the size of the cans isn't what we would consider good news or being straightforward with their customers . In our opinion, it borders on deceptive advertising. Of course, you can't expect that manufacturers will go out of their way to let you know when they raise prices, downsize a product, or substitute cheaper ingredients, either. What we don't like is the fact that, in our mind at least, Costco's announcement paints a picture that it's now a better value, when the opposite is actually true.
Since when is raising the price (per ounce, per pound, per gallon, etc.) of a product, while at the same time, forcing you to buy more of it at once, a good thing for consumers ? What ever happened to the warehouse club concept that as package size increases, so does value ?
For us, the appeal of shopping at Costco isn't so much about price, as it is about quality. After all, shopping at Costco means an extra shopping trip, an annual membership fee, not getting your groceries bagged, often waiting in long lines at the checkout, limited shopping hours and very limited product selection. Indeed,we can buy many identical items for less at the local supermarket, especially when they're on sale or if we use manufacturer's coupons. What we like most about Costco is that the quality of their private-labeled items, such as their tuna fish, is generally superior to not only the national brands, but any brand at any price. Even Jimmy Kimmel shops at Costco. Watch Jimmy shopping at Costco on youtube. We never knew a trip to Costco could be so much fun.
An article entitled "Costco's Artful Discounts" (Business Week, October 9, 2008), says this of Costco CEO James D. Sinegal… "he's constantly pushing his buyers to find creative ways to lower prices and add value while getting his managers to crank up their efficiency efforts". It seems to us that Costco's new 7-ounce cans of tuna have failed to deliver the lower prices or added value which Mr. Sinegal is so fond of. What they do seem to have provided is a lot of hype for Costco's marketing efforts, and very likely a higher profit margin because a product's shipping and packaging costs (especially for canned items) decrease (on a percentage basis), as container size increases. There is very little difference in the cost of manufacturing a 7-ounce tin can, compared to a 6-ounce tin can. In fact, in the case of Costco tuna fish, the old and new cans use exactly the same size lid; but the walls of the can are slightly taller. Costco is also very good at finding ways to minimize shipping costs, for instance, by having their vendors redesign packages so that more of them can fit onto a standard shipping pallet. We wouldn't be surprised if Costco's next "improvement" to their Kirkland signature tuna will be to offer it in new and improved square cans. Think of all the space that will save in the pantry, and the fact that you won't have to worry about your can of tuna fish rolling away, should you drop it. That's always been a big problem for households that live in hilly areas. Now, if the United States mint would only start issuing square pennies !
So, what have we learned today, class? We've learned that you get less for your money when manufacturers shrink the size of their products, and sometimes, you get less for your money when manufacturers increase the size of their products. Heads, you lose. Tails, you lose.
Dear Costco… May we please have our old 6-ounce cans of Kirkland Signature tuna fish back again? They were a better value.
Then again, maybe we should just pay our money, eat our tuna fish (mercury content and torpedoes be damned), and keep our mouth shut. Mother always said you shouldn't speak with your mouth full, and now it's 16.6% more full.
– Routing By Rumor
** "Margin" is not the same as "markup". For instance, if you buy an item for $1.00, and sell it for $2.00, your markup is 100%, but your margin (the percentage of the selling price that represents your profit) is only 50%. We've always felt that putting things in terms of profit margin instead of markup, especially as markups become greater, has the effect of making a seller's prices seem more reasonable.

The suspended players in the New Orleans Saints bounty case have reportedly filed appeals of the latest penalties imposed by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.
Both NFL.com and ESPN have reported that Jonathan Vilma, Will Smith, Anthony Hargrove and Scott Fujita have appealed the discipline Goodell announced Tuesday.
After an appeals panel in September overturned the penalties Goodell initially disclosed in May, the commissioner re-issued his decision earlier this week with a few changes.
Hargrove, currently a free agent, had an eight-game ban cut to seven games and Fujita, now with the Cleveland Browns, had a three-game penalty trimmed to one game. Vilma's suspension remained season-long and Smith's four-game ban also held firm.
If Hargrove is signed by a team, he will only serve a two-game suspension after receiving credit for the five games he already has missed this season.
Fujita has appeared in three games for the Browns, while Smith has appeared in all five games for the Saints. Vilma hasn't played in a game this season because of a knee injury and Goodell's recent ruling has allowed for the linebacker to accumulate time served while he was being paid during his time on the physically unable to perform list.

(CNN) -- What would you do if you had to wait 90 minutes for your pizza to be delivered? Stare out the window with sad, hungry eyes? Call in screaming to cancel your order? Take to Twitter to vent your #waitingforever fury? Or take matters into your hands and launch your own pizza delivery store?
Ritesh Doshi, 32, did the latter.
Back in 2011, Doshi, an investment banker whose career had taken him to London, New York and Amman, returned to his native country Kenya to visit his parents. One night, he and his family decided to order out.
"We had to wait for about 90 minutes for the pizza to be delivered," remembers Doshi. "We then ordered again another night from another place and it took 75 minutes," he adds. "You just couldn't get a decent pizza in a reasonable amount of time. So I thought, you know what, anywhere in the world that I've lived and worked you can get a pizza in 35 minutes -- so why not in Nairobi?"

That was it. Soon after, Doshi left his career in banking and set his sights on the pizza industry. After talking to several people, he decided to bring to Nairobi the concept of Naked Pizza, an international franchise thriving on the usage of fresh ingredients.
"If you look at the dictionary definition of naked, natural is one of the definitions that come up," says Doshi. "We have no weird chemicals added to our food, we don't add sugar to any of our products," he adds. "Our meats are all hormone free -- everything that we use is natural."
Naked Pizza was founded in the U.S. in 2006. Outside America, there are five stores in Dubai. Kenya's first outlet was launched about a year ago and since then sales have been growing every month.
"The response from the customers has been fantastic," says Doshi. "We really saw an opportunity to create a healthier product and get it to people quickly."
Tasty success
Inside the Naked Pizza store in Westlands, an affluent Nairobi neighborhood, a group of green-shirted young men line up behind the counter to cut vegetables, shred cheese and prepare the sauce for the day.
On slow days, Doshi says, there are between 100 and 150 orders. At busier times, the figure rises to 350-400.
The company's menu includes nine options, but Doshi says the most popular ones are the superbiotic -- a mouthful of artichoke, baby spinach, mixed pepper, mushroom, garlic, red onion and coriander -- and the omnivore, a pizza comprised of beef pepperoni, beef hamburger, turkey ham, mixed pepper, mushroom and black olives.

Yet, tracing some of these ingredients has not always been an easy task.
"Things like artichokes and jalapenos were hard to source," says Doshi. He explains that building a supply chain and navigating Kenya's bureaucratic machine have both been very challenging.
"We need licenses for literally everything," he says. "Our signs, our bikes, for any kind of branding we do and a whole host of other things."
Love of pizza
Despite the challenges, however, the young entrepreneur is determined to "get Nairobi naked." He is optimistic about the venture's future, saying that he's already developing a second store and is actively looking for more retail estate.
At the heart of this is the brand's appeal to people of all incomes from both the local and expat community in Nairobi.
"The love of pizza is an international thing and we've been able to really transcend economic boundaries, racial boundaries and age boundaries," says Doshi. "There is a great story -- an old lady who had never tried pizza before was visiting her daughter from outside Nairobi; her daughter is a regular customer and this was the first time she tried pizza."

Doshi says the growing breed of young Kenyan returnees has also been one of the main drivers of Naked Pizza's success.
"There is a large, increasing number of Kenyans coming home," he says. "People who studied and lived all over the world -- a lot of them are coming back and actually a large part of our customers is made up of returning Kenyans."
A repat himself, Doshi says he's not regretted quitting his promising career in investment banking to set up a business in Nairobi, a rising international city and economic market.
"It's great to be here," he says. "It's great to be part of the growth story at home -- for a long time I've reading about it from away, so it was great to participate in that."
Looking ahead, Doshi is aiming to grow the brand while changing people's eating habits in the process.
"We think we can do that by delivering a great product, with great customer service," he says.
As for the waiting time?
"If you're ordering in the store, you should have that in under 10 minutes," says Doshi. "If it goes out for delivery, you should have that within about 35 minutes -- every single time."

Recently, kitchens are increasingly installing cym furniture bar stools In modern apartments they migrated from bars and restaurants, becoming a full-fledged piece of the interior. They are placed around the counter or kitchen island. Often there is simply no room for a full-fledged dining area in the apartment. In this case, the bar with high chairs will be an excellent option, elegant and ergonomic. For a small kitchen, a folding chair is also perfect, which can be removed at any time. Most often, upholstery for such cym furniture bar stools is the natural leather or leatherette – they are easy to care for. It is enough to wipe the seat with a damp cloth.
When choosing a cym furniture bar stools, you should pay attention to the following parameters:
Reliability – if the chair is supposed to be used daily, the metal frame will be the best basis for it.
Strength – in this case it is about your safety. All elements of the cym furniture bar stools design must be securely connected.
Lightness – it is better to give preference to lightweight structures, they will be easy to move during harvesting.

CBD Isolate
CBD Isolate
What Are CBD Isolates?
CBD isolate is a powdered cannabidiol extract that is incredibly pure, and that contains the 'medicinal' parts of cannabis. This anhydrous substance is 99% CBD, and it can be used as a food additive, added to liquids, or ingested in other ways to enjoy the medicinal benefits of CBD. CBD oil use is a relatively new thing, and there are still a lot of questions about exactly how it works and what it can do, but it is known that it is safe, and if you can get CBD That does not contain THC (as CBD isolates are known to), then you can get the healing and pain relief benefits without the psychoactive effects. CBD can be used to help calm people down, help them focus, and also help people who suffer from chronic pain conditions as well. CBD will not get you 'high' but it can help with arthritis, ADHD, nagging injuries, and even with skin conditions.
Some people mix CBD isolates in with e-liquids, to inhale the substance. Others put them into edibles, which can help with the bio-availability (as long as you don't over-cook them, breaking the CBD down).
There is a lot of misinformation out there about CBD. The oils are actually legal in most parts of the world (Canada is one of the only places where it is formally considered a controlled substance, even though it does not contain THC). CBD isolates are expensive, because of the purification process, but they are very potent, and you should find that they do their job very well.
CBD Isolate
What's In CBD
Cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol are the two cannabidoids that occur naturally in Hemp. Thy are very similar when they are examined at the molecular level, and initially many law enforcement departments treated them as being the same. However, it has since been found that CBD has the focus and mind-enhancing aspects of cannabis, and that it can act as a nootropic – but it is not a psychotropic.
THC's mind-altering behaviour is what makes it illgal – some people experience paranoia, and some people experience highs that make them lose control of their faculties. This makes THC dangerous in certain environments (such as if you are driving, or operating heavy machinery), and that's why it is considered illegal in many states.
Cannabis has pain relief effects, and it can improve the quality of life for people who have serious medical conditions. Medical marijuana is one option. CBD is an option for people who want the pain relief, without the mind altering effects. CBD isolate makes it possible to take in CBD without the strong taste, and without the 'side effects'.
CBD and THC are not addictive. Some people enjoy the 'highs', but that doesn't mean that they are going to get biologically addicted to it. CBD offers relief of pain at the neuro-synapse level. The pain relief can be lasting, but it does not cure whatever was causing the pain. Rather, it reduces the production of cytokines by the Glial cells in the injured area, stopping you from feeling pain while there is an injury.
The way that CBD and THC interact with each other when you smoke marijuana are complicated, and it's hard to know exactly what taking CBD isolates by themselves will do. Initial reports from 'early adopters' however, suggest that CBD will work to ease Parkinson's tremors, help autistic people focus, soothe the pain from arthritis, and generally improve their quality of life. It's well worth trying if you have already tried painkillers, and found them to be ineffective for your needs.

LAGOS, Nigeria – Shell Nigeria says an explosion and fire caused by oil theft have forced it to shut down its Trans Niger Pipeline that carries 150,000 barrels of crude a day.
Thursday's statement said the theft of oil, known as bunkering, caused the conflagration at Bodo West in Ogoniland. The area in southern Nigeria already has suffered decades of oil spills.
Shell's Nigeria Director Mutiu Sunmonu described "another sad reminder of the tragic consequences of crude oil theft."
Environmental activists accuse Shell Nigeria of using oil theft as an excuse to cover up accidental spills. The company has to compensate local communities for spills not caused by theft.
"Sabotage is a problem in Nigeria, but Shell exaggerates this issue to avoid criticism for its failure to prevent oil spills," Audrey Gaughran of Amnesty International said.

Hundreds of Missouri motorcycle stunt riders took to the freeways of St. Louis late last week for an event they called the "Ride of the Century." For at least one member, the event produced the photo of the century. UPDATED
Organized by Kansas City-based Blox Starz, the group frequently stages stunt rides in various Midwestern cities and at paid events. As far as Missouri state law cares, popping a wheelie while putting your legs through the handlebars could get you cited for "careless and imprudent driving," but the Blox Stars say they're not speeding and in control of their bikes — outside of the occasional crash.
These particular shots from the group's Facebook gallery became an instant favorite; while some riders were pulled over, many were not, simply because there aren't enough officers to stop a few hundred bikers. The ballsiest stunt? Probably the rider who defied every distracted driving ad by posting to Facebook while standing on his bike facing the wrong way.
UPDATE: We wheel-stand corrected — the ride was put together by Streetfighters, a St. Louis area group, and the estimate of bikes that took part runs to 1,500.

This baby nearly made me jump out of my skin when I walked past it in a shop the other day. I thought it was just a weird looking light or stand, but as I brushed passed a huge gust of wind hit my face, "it's a fan!" I screamed. Yes, Dyson have done it again and surprised us with another technological masterpiece and created a bladeless fan.
As the Dyson new age fan uses Air multiplier technology which means the blades dont chop the air before it hits you, the breeze is smoother and I can tell you a lot more powerful! The fans come in a range of sizes, colours and shapes so you can have one to suit your desk, bedroom or a board room if you're fancy. They range from £200 – £300 and come with a 2 year guarantee, some stores don't stock the whole range so I'd check before heading down to your local.

by Lanny Udell
Dancing since: Mark first saw Argentine Tango performed at a half-time exhibition show during a Grand National Ballroom Convention, over 20 years ago. Then, after a 10 year hiatus from serious dancing, in April 2011, he attended a Weller House milonga in Fort Bragg. Dressed in tight-fitting Wrangler jeans with a rodeo belt buckle, cowboy boots and a western shirt, he "tango-walked" all night. He recalls: "The people, the embrace, the ambience, the music…I was hooked!"
Why Tango: For Mark, tango is the pinnacle of dance expression. He has had structured partner dance instruction and experiences for a number of years, but since finding this dance form, "I can truly relax and express myself, and feel my partner's expression in the music," he explains. The music is a big part of the draw for Mark, an accordion player with a deep appreciation for musicality.
Favorite Part: Those moments between the cabaceo, leading up to the embrace…and then that first step when I can feel us become one with each other …
About Debbie & John: After watching some very accomplished followers at a milonga in Santa Rosa, Mark inquired as to where else they were dancing. They mentioned Alma del Tango and invited him to join them at a class. "Debbie approached me as soon as I entered the dance floor," says Mark. "She made me feel very welcome and at-ease." He admired the manner in which John and Debbie worked together and relayed the facets of the lesson to their students. Now he looks forward to Debbie's energy and enthusiasm every week.
What surprised him most: Having come from a ballroom background, Mark was surprised at the slower movement of the dance lanes in tango, " it allows much more time to explore and improvise," says the tanguero. He is also surprised at the vast array of options and amalgamations available in the figures presented in tango. "And, I am pleasantly surprised at how luscious and provocative the women dress at the milongas!"
On a personal note: Mark makes his home in Potter Valley, Mendocino County. A home and commercial building contractor for over 30 years, he currently specializes in turn-of-the century remodels. Mark is an active ocean diver and pursues sport fishing using breath-hold diving techniques. He is also an active musician playing the piano accordion, and a classical music enthusiast.
Last word: "I have always enjoyed reaping the benefits of positive results from confronting challenges," says Mark, "and I find Argentine Tango classes and milongas to be some of the most challenging and rewarding moments in my life, thus far."
