The car is based upon the same system as the Honda CR-V, however Acura made it much better to drive. It is likewise among one of the most comfortable offerings in its class and while not one of the most effective, it is absolutely among one of the most peaceful options with a variety of deluxe attributes.

It is shared that the 2018 Acura MDX Hybrid Review could have the outline that might brighten the plan of the new automobiles made up in its type obtaining it as an a precursor that every other opponent have to attempt to exceed, nonetheless as concentrates show up now, Honda is on yet one more direction and will not permit anyone draw close. The primary exterior function that will certainly catch the eye when observing the 2019 Acura RDX is the bent body framework combined with expansions in the right part of the body. The 2019 Acura RDX will certainly be a monster, a real master of all terrains.

Puente Students Recognized by LA Supervisor Hahn at Community Dinner
On April 12, 2018, 80 Puente students from California High School, Whittier High School, Cerritos Community College and Rio Hondo College were honored at the Cesar Chavez Recognition Dinner sponsored by Los Angeles Supervisor Janice Hahn and The Cesar Chavez Foundation. The event was held at the Liberty Community Center in Santa Fe Springs, CA and attendees included parents, community leaders and elected officials.
The Puente Project was selected as the main participating program among several organizations that were considered to take part in this event. Margie Rodriguez, a long-standing community activist and personal friend of the Chavez Family, chose Puente as a key partner for this event. She remarked, "I'm highly impressed by the fact that Puente incorporates community service and the responsibility of giving back as part of their mission and teaching to these young people". Furthermore, she added, "It touched my heart that Puente uses 'Si Se Puede' as a type of anthem in instilling to their students the ability to reach their highest potential," (a phrase commonly used by Cesar Chavez).
Puentistas were acknowledged for their hours of volunteerism. Collectively, Puente students donated several hundred hours of community service throughout the San Gabriel Valley area. In recognition of their efforts, Supervisor Janice Hahn and the 32nd Senate District Office honored these Puentistas' efforts with certificates of recognition.

Danish Zoo Puts Down Healthy 2-Year-Old Giraffe to Avoid Inbreeding
In spite of a furious online campaign and an offer of 500,000 euros, the Copenhagen Zoo decided to shoot dead a healthy giraffe Sunday. Two-year-old Marius apparently had to go down because the zoo wanted to avoid inbreeding; apparently there already were giraffes in the breeding program with similar genes, and other options — such as castrating the animal — would have "diminished his quality of life". So, instead, he was shot with a bolt pistol, cut up in front of horrified zoo visitors, and then fed to some tigers.
"The purpose of the breeding program is to have as healthy a population as possible, not only now, but in the future," the zoo's scientific director, Bengt Holst, told TIME magazine. "As this giraffe's genes are over-represented in the breeding program, the European Breeding Programme for Giraffes has agreed that Copenhagen Zoo euthanize him."
Under the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA) rules, in-breeding between giraffes has to be avoided, and although poor Marius was healthy, his genes were already represented — meaning he likewise couldn't be taken in by the 300 other EAZA-affiliated zoos. "The euthanasia is happening in agreement with the European Breeding Programme for Giraffes," Copenhagen Zoo said on its website. "It is not possible to transfer the giraffe to another zoo as it will cause inbreeding."
But that didn't stop thousands from trying to save the creature. A Swedish zoo, not affiliated with the EAZA network, tried to get Marius transferred but failed; the Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster, England, also offered to house the giraffe. One guy offered 500,000 euros — $680,000 — to buy the giraffe and keep it in his Beverly Hills home. But according to EAZA regulations, the zoos don't actually own the animals, they just govern them. Meaning they can kill them, but not sell them.
An online petition to save Marius had received more than 20,000 signatures before he was killed, with the hashtag #SaveMarius gathering an incensed following on Twitter. But in spite of the efforts, at 10 AM Sunday morning, Marius was shot by bolt gun (a lethal injection would have contaminated the meat, apparently), and became lion food.
Let's hope he's doing a bit of this in giraffe heaven:

Yesterday my friends and I went to try this new restaurant everyone is talking about in the city nowadays. The name above is not the real name of the restaurant but it might give a hint. Well, I got to know that one of my favorite singers perform Live there every Tuesday and I really wanted to go and hear him sing and play and also check out this new place. So, I called the restaurant two days before we go and asked if we need to reserve in advance and they confrimed that no we can just show up there anytime.
We went at 7:30 pm and it was crowded and had to wait on the list. I didn't mind at the begining as I thought it would be like everywhere else in the avenues (10 minutes or something). We stood outside literally in the street in the cold weather for nearly an hour. My friend's husband got really upset and gave us all the bad looks we could get and I was determined to stay and wait. But when I noticed that a lot of ladies going inside without waiting like us, I had to stand up and see what's going on. I asked the waiter and he said yes these are the celebrities and today is their day. I got upset as no one told us from the start that it was booked up. I knew they were bloggers and fashionistas but nevertheless, we waited for an hour and instead they could have been honest from the start. The place is so tiny but I didn't even get the chance to see it from the inside. I didn't want any problems with my friend and her hubby so we left and had dinner in another restaurant around the corner which turned out to be a nice experience unlike the other one.

Verdict: Pilote, an outlier in his era, was the heart of the Blackhawksby Bob Verdi / Team Historian
Pierre Pilote, a Hall of Fame defenseman who won a Stanley Cup and three consecutive Norris Trophies with the Blackhawks, has died. He was 85.
Pilote was a latecomer who evolved into a perennial all-star. Born in Kenogami, Quebec, he moved with his family to Fort Erie, Ontario, where the only rink in town was destroyed in a storm. So, at age 14, he drifted to baseball. He did not play organized hockey until he was 17, and then as a center. With a crowd at that position, his coach switched Pilote to the blue line.
"I had to learn how to play there," he recalled, "but I was still inclined to think offensively."
Indeed, Pilote became somewhat of an outlier in his era -- a steady presence on the blue line but a proponent of moving the puck. The pace of games then was not nearly as brisk as it is now, and defensemen were preponderantly of the stay-at-home ilk. But after toiling for 4 and a half seasons in the minors with the Buffalo Bisons, a stunningly long apprenticeship given his skills, Pilote joined the Blackhawks late in 1956 and became an essential ingredient in the team's revival after years in the wilderness.
"Pierre was Bobby Orr before Bobby Orr," praised Glenn Hall, the Blackhawks' Hall of Fame goalie. Whenever Pilote heard that tribute, he always shrugged. Orr's revolutionary style as an "offenseman" with the Boston Bruins earned him eight straight Norris Trophies, but the last individual to merit anything even approximating that was Pilote, who won the Norris in 1963, 1964 and 1965. He finished second in voting in 1962, 1966 and 1967.
"I had a terrific partner in Elmer 'Moose' Vasko, who minded the store while I went up ice," Pilote said. "And we had guys like Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita, who knew what to do with the puck. Did they ever."
Pierre quarterbacked the Blackhawks to Stanley Cup in 1961, scoring three goals and adding 12 assists in only 12 games as the franchise achieved its first championship since 1938. The next year, Pilote became team captain, an honor he held until 1968. During that hallmark 1960-61 winter, Pilote also led the NHL with 165 penalty minutes. Despite his medium build, Pilote had a truculent side and initiated more physicality than he accepted.
"I had a few scraps," Pilote recalled. "One night in Montreal against the Canadiens, I got into it with Henri Richard. The next thing you know, here came his brother, Maurice, 'The Rocket.' That was interesting. Lucky for me, one of our guys, Harry Watson, arrived to help me out. There was more of that stuff then, and you had to establish yourself, or else."
Despite his fiery form while playing, Pilote was a soft-spoken prince of a gentleman with a dry sense of humor. Although proudly old school, Pilote keenly observed modern hockey and followed current players. When Doug Wilson won the 1982 Norris, Pilote lavishly extolled the young Chicago star. A popular and frequent attendee at the annual Blackhawks Convention, Pilote could often be found huddling with clone Duncan Keith. It was difficult to discern who was picking whose brain.
"Talk about a guy who can move the puck," Pilote gushed. "And he stays in shape year-round. In the summers, we did nothing."
Like so many former Blackhawks, Pilote was grateful to be treated as family.
"Unbelievable what the organization has accomplished under Rocky Wirtz and John McDonough," he said. "They've been wonderful to me."
In 1968, Pilote was traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs for Jim Pappin. After one season there, Pilote retired and embarked on several successful business ventures. He played 890 games in the NHL -- 376 of them consecutively with the Blackhawks. As a fixture in all situations, notably the power play, Pilote amassed 400 assists, still eighth on the franchise list. Keith passed him last season.
In 1975, Pilote was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. On Nov. 12, 2008, the organization retired Pilote's No. 3 sweater in a ceremony at the United Center. That number was later worn by Keith Magnuson, another beloved Blackhawk. Deceased in 2003, Maggie would have been the first to tell anybody that he was not as gifted a hockey player as Pilote.
But Pilote would have none of it.
"It never occurred to me that I should be up there by myself," he said, gracious as ever. In 2013, Pilote's autobiography hit the stands: "Heart of the Blackhawks." In many ways, he was.

About Leeds Vacuum Formers
LVF was founded in 1987 and during the intervening years we feel we have hit upon the right formula for success in this highly competitive marketplace.
Firstly – we are big enough to cope, but small enough to care.
In practice this means we have the facilities expected of larger manufacturers, which are combined with the attention to detail and personal service associated with smaller family-based companies.
Secondly – we are extremely flexible.
The benefits of this flexible attitude can be seen in everything we do. If a potential customer wants something we don't offer then we will create it – from developing prototypes through to creating the necessary tools and manufacturing the final product.
We are also happy to deliver shorter production runs and work to tighter deadlines than many of the larger operators in the business, meaning we can accommodate pretty much any job.
Finally – we don't just want to win your business, we want to get it right and keep it
Winning new business is all well and good, but when you've put the hard work in convincing a new customer to come on-board surely the best option for your business is to make sure you retain their custom?
Our loyal and dedicated team is passionate about getting it right. From sales and admin through to design, production and tool making we are committed to excellent customer service and strive for excellence in every aspect of everything we do.
And if that wasn't enough, we are ever conscious of our environmental responsibilities. We offer products in a wide variety of locally sourced material, including post-consumer waste, Rpet and operate within the approved framework of BRC/IOP.

Reagan, O'Connor sweep into Region IV-6A finals
McALLEN — If the Reagan Rattlers had any nerves playing in front a raucous crowd that was rooting against them, they didn't show it.
As they waited for the third set to start in their Region IV-6A semifinal, they played along making out the letters to the Village People's disco-era hit "YMCA" as it blasted on the public address system in the opponent's home gym.
The Rattlers honed in and finished off McAllen Rowe 25-20, 25-20, 25-20.
"We were having fun, but we definitely weren't relaxed," Reagan outside hitter Elissa Barbosa said. "We were focusing on finishing because we know from our one loss if you relax, anyone can take one from you."
Reagan (44-1) advanced to the regional championship and will play O'Connor at noon Saturday at Rowe.
O'Connor handed Reagan its only loss this season. The Panthers rallied to defeat the Rattlers in three game in the finals of the New Braunfels Fraulein Volleyfest on Aug. 19.
"You put in a lot of work to get to within one match, so we have one to go and we'll be very focused on O'Connor," Reagan coach Mike Carter said. "I expect a great match. Yeah, they beat us in August, but that was a long time ago for both teams."
On Friday, the Rattlers shot out to a 5-1 lead and later held a 12-7 advantage in the third set before Rowe battled back and tied it at 13. Barbosa helped Reagan regain its composure, offering a pair of kills that stopped the Warriors' momentum. Those kills, plus a monster block by senior middle blocker Kyla Waiters gave the Rattlers the momentum it needed to finish off Rowe.
"It's a momentum thing — Kyla and I getting kills," Barbosa said. "Everyone hops on board and that brings the energy."
O'Connor advanced to Saturday's regional final with a hard-fought 25-21, 28-26, 27-25 victory over McAllen Memorial.
The Panthers fought off three set points in the second set and one in the third set to improve to 44-4.
"Memorial played good defense, and we had to stay composed and keep playing our fast-paced game, and I think that was the key," O'Connor coach Yami Garcia said.
The first set wasn't easy, either. Memorial (31-9) led 16-14 before O'Connor closed with an 11-5 run. Alyssa Tatsch provided four kills in that span to help close it out.
In the second set, Parker Connell's kill thwarted Memorial's third set point and tied it up at 26. Tatsch and Gabby De Los Santos teamed on a block that gave O'Connor set point and Tatsch secured it with a kill.
"It's all about confidence and composure and it's an important thing to have when you are down," O'Connor senior middle blocker Aspen Thompson said.
O'Connor jumped ahead 20-14 in the third set before Memorial went on a 7-1 run to tie it at 21. A kill by Alexia Kruse put Memorial in the lead, 25-24. O'Connor answered with a pair of kills by Allison Fields and a kill by Thompson to secure the match.

A Short History of Britain
Bloomsbury Publishing, 26 feb. 2015 - 208 pagina's
Covering over 2,000 years in under 200 pages, Jeremy Black takes the reader on a breathless tour of British history, providing invaluable context for students of any period. A truly British overview, this book covers all four constituent parts of the UK, as well as migration to and from Britain, and introduces questions of national identity and collective memory.
The author begins by considering how the geography of Britain has influenced its development and goes on to examine the formation of its society and political culture. Resisting the Whiggish tradition of triumphalist national histories, Jeremy Black provides a balanced and sensitive account in his trademark pithy style.
This new edition has been considerably revised and expanded, bringing the coverage right up to the present day, including what the Scottish referendum on independence says about the nature of modern 'Britishness'.

Before it fell for good to the Ottomans in 1453, the city of Constantinople withstood something like a dozen sieges by foreign armies over its long history. The one successful siege, by the soldiers of the Fourth Crusade in 1204, was of course eventually rolled back when the Latin Empire went defunct in 1261. But other than that, all of them prior to 1453 were unsuccessful. Arab armies under the Umayyad Caliphate attempted two of those failed sieges. The first may have been made in 674-678 (this is generally considered the Arabs' "first siege" of Constantinople, though it wasn't really as cohesive as that description implies), when the Byzantines may have been saved by the advent of Greek Fire and its use in destroying an Arab naval blockade. The second probably began on this date in 717 and ended on this date in 718, and was the last time the caliphate really threatened the city.

Escape to the Big Bamboo Cafe
The South Pacific may be half aglobe away from Hilton Head Island,but those looking for a tropical escapecan find it at the Big Bambooin Coligny Plaza.
Legend has it the original Big Bamboowas established by an AmericanAir Force fighter pilot on Tarawa, aneast Pacific island that offered theAllies a strategic advantage duringWorld War II.
Constructed of corrugated tin, palmfronds and bamboo, this little bar andgrill with a view of the turquoise Pacificwaters became a popular pit stop forpilots delivering cargo or refueling atthe air strip. The American food anddrinks, music and casual atmospherehelped the soldiers get away fromthe worries of war and relax amongcomrades. They say some even fakedengine trouble just as an excuse to landon Tarawa and stop at the originalBig Bamboo.
In this spirit, Hilton Head Island's BigBamboo Cafè was created. Located upstairs inColigny Plaza, right next to the beach, walkinginto the eatery is like visiting the 1940s. Thedining room is decorated with vintage photographs,World War II memorabilia, modelfighter planes and, of course, corrugated tin,bamboo and palm fronds. Live music fills theair and the menu offers a variety of colorfulAmerican dishes sure to appease any appetite.It's the kind of place that easily gains ravingfans.
"These people from New York came in fourtimes this week for our burger," said managerAlex Fernandez. "People get hooked andkeep coming back, and that's what makes usunique-the feedback we get from them."
In addition to the popular burger, the BigBamboo menu includes steaks, salads, seafoodand appetizers. The ingredients are freshand the dishes have a unique tropical flair,such as the Blackened Grouper Fillet (servedwith mango pineapple salsa) and the VolcanoShrimp (fried and coated with chili sauce andblue cheese crumbles).
They offer lunch specials, a children's menu(the unique dècor is sure to keep the kids entertained)and happy hour drink and appetizerspecials. The early bird dining special includessoup or salad, choice of entrèe, dessert anda glass of wine for $12.95. Chef Karl Lamert isplanning a special winter menu available mid-January through mid-February, and they'll beparticipating in Restaurant Week, which runsfrom January 15-22.
So what ever happened to the Big Bambooon Tarawa? According to the legend, it waswiped out by a typhoon in 1945. But the storycontinues on Hilton Head, one delicious mealat a time.

Day by day.
Not having a functioning kitchen sink for nearly a month makes you appreciate the small things in life. Like not having to wash dishes in the bathroom sink or stock pile crud-covered bowls in the tub. Those days are long gone! Well, at least temporarily.
We're down to the nitty gritty: no oven & no sink. But the microwave & dorm-style fridge are still available & functioning!
Once the countertops are installed the kitchen will be dishwasher ready! Let me just there has been no dishwasher in my life since I was in high school. That, was a long time ago. Needless to say, I am ecstatic!

Here is God's answer to Moses – in his lack of eloquence - trembling at the prospect of confronting the all-powerful Pharaoh of Egypt.
But your voice, too - like your finger-print - is your unique God-given trademark! School teachers, telephone receptionists, shop-keepers, barristers, till-operators, university lecturers, sports commentators, hospital nursing staff, car salesmen, preachers, newscasters, and neighbours ... how are you coming across?
Your own voice is worth working on! When facing a class, a business seminar, a charity's annual meeting – or reading the Scriptures in church - how well can someone at the very back clearly hear you?
To start with: 'Ignore the mike!' Keep within nine inches of it – and then let go … addressing yourself to the very back of the room. We can always test a trusted friend in the back row afterwards: "How well could you hear me?"
Most of the power from a well-projected voice comes - not from the upper diaphragm - but from the bottom of your lungs; from what feels like 'the tummy.' Peter Westland suggests this as a useful exercise:
'Get down on your hands and knees and pant like a dog … Pant quickly but evenly. You will notice it is difficult, while on your hands and knees, to breathe into your chest. This exercise more or less forces you to breathe abdominally' (Teach Yourself Public Speaking; EUP, London).
Now learn to do it while you are standing – so increasing the flow of exhaled air passing across the vocal chords. This greatly increases the depth, control and steadiness of the voice.
FINALLY A FEW TIPS ON PRESENTATION! Some cameos to avoid! ...
THE DRONE: Um. It's all on one note, and I – sitting in my hard-backed chair - am being sent elsewhere, into my own day-dreams; Oh, my poor back ...
THE MOO: Y-yes - it's soothing, but completely unmodulated - and presented with a 'rounded' voice with about as much edge to it as a poached egg. I'm falling
asle-e-e-p ...
THE WHINE: Nothing, in this drizzle of depression, is ever 'right' with the world, the government or the church: Moan, moan, moan ...
THE BARK: It's 'powerful' all right, but, with this shouting, it seems to think that it's in charge of the Trooping of the Colour. It's getting boring, with this unchanging
harassing din.
THE GALLOP: Ideas, words and thoughts jostle for inclusion in this helter-skelter of a talk. Some of the things said are magnificent, but they are given no space amid the non-stop torrent of gobbled, half-finished words. The mind of the speaker races ahead of the sentence - which is barely ended before the next thought rushes in like an express train … or like Old MacDonald's Farm: 'Here a thought. there a thought, everywhere a thought-thought.'
My goodness, if anyone ever improved, it was Moses! Look at his farewell speech to Israel:
"Listen O heavens, and I will speak! Hear O earth the words of my mouth! Let my teaching fall like rain, and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants!" (Deuteronomy 32: 1-2)

What To Do About Landon?
- Posted by Drew Epperley
- On March 9, 2010
- 10 Comments
- Bruce Arena, Everton, Landon Donovan
Part of me wants Landon Donovan to stay in England. The other part of me wants him back here in the US with the LA Galaxy. Thing is I cannot for the life of me decide which is the right one to go with.
Its a rough dilemma to be in for Donovan. He wants to stay on with Everton just a little bit longer but we know LA manager Bruce Arena has said no a few times to the press recently.
"It was kind of like in that movie 'Dumb and Dumber', where the man says that there is a chance, it's just one in a million," said Arena. The Galaxy coach, who has remained in frequent contact with the midfielder throughout his loan, did not appear concerned about the comments.
"There is always a chance, it may be one in a million, but there is always a chance."
Yeah a chance, a very small one but one nonetheless.
Where to stand on this is a tough thing. Donovan has clearly done well this time around in Europe with Everton. It comes to show that if you place him in the right system he cannot be stopped. He's done nothing but be pretty freakin' amazing while playing for Everton these last couple months.
But should we as MLS fans be selfish and want him back so soon? I'm sure LA fans certainly do. Their team won't be nearly as good without him.
But would keeping him with Everton until June really hurt LA? I kind of doubt it. I'm not saying he should make a permeant move to Europe here just yet but I do think a little more time wouldn't hurt. I'm sure it would easily help the US Men's National team this summer if Donovan was playing at a very high level in England (not to say he wouldn't be at a high level here in MLS).
I think one big thing this loan has proved to the rest of the world is that players from MLS can play and that Donovan most certainly is a force to be reckoned with. I know I'm happy to see Donovan finally do well in Europe. And as much as I want to see him stay in MLS I wouldn't be at all upset to see him make a full fledge run in the EPL with Everton.
How do you want to see this story play out with Donovan? Do you want him back here in MLS or would you rather see him at least get an extension on his loan with Everton?

This coming May 17, 2015 would be my third year of taking photography into another level. What started as taking photos with my iPhone 4S of people, places and things which I thought was interesting and that I wanted to share to the world through this website, I followed the advice of my high school principal and got myself my first DSLR, Canon EOS 600D that came with a EFS 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 kit lens, and the rest as they say is history.
Since then I tried several fields of photography but there is one area of photography that I never tried and that is wedding photography. I had been asked many times before and Retrato Manila had several inquiries in the past if it does wedding photography. Although I covered some events like birthdays and christening, I always stayed away from weddings. I had taken wedding photos of friends' weddings only as a guest but not as the official photographer.
There are several reasons why I had not up to this point delved into wedding photography. Here are my main reason:
- I am a one-man team. All the weddings I attended, there are at least 3 photographers and about a couple of assistants. Unlike birthdays and other events, for me there are special moments in weddings that is very essential and would be a disaster if not captured.
- I don't do video. Most couples would also want video coverage of their wedding. Though I recently gotten myself a Canon EOS 70D which is great for video, it is also my main camera. I can though do video with my Canon EOS 600D.
- I don't have enough equipment. I got three lenses, my Canon 18-135mm kit lens, Canon 50mm f/1.8 prime lens and a Canon 10-22mm wide angle lens. I have only one strobe, Canon 430EX II, which is on my main camera. Lighting is very essential in photography, and usually churches and chapels don't have the best lighting. I don't feel I can come out with the best possible shots with the limited equipment that I have.
- I don't want to disappoint. Weddings are one of those occasions that is very special that not delivering the best possible shots is something that I dread of. There are moments that you can't repeat in weddings, and you can't asked them to do it again.
Here are the rest of the photos I took during the wedding of Drs. John and Donnie Valerio, were I was a guest so I had to be courteous to the official photographers and stay out of the way of their shots.
Sooner or later I might try wedding photography but for now I think I am thinking of starting with prenuptial photography.
Next week I would take you to a world rarely seen. Watch for it.
Don't forget to like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.

I'm not gonna lie to you, I was pretty taken aback by the passion for fish fingers sandwiches when I moved to London four years ago. Everyone around me was casually eating hummus, avocado and lobster rolls like it was no big thing, whereas I still thought going to Nandos was a fancy treat. So why were all these people, people who I admired and respected and feared, losing their minds over something so ordinary?
The answer is obvious. It's because fish finger sandwiches are bloody delicious.
They're also getting a bit of a gourmet revival. Google "Fish finger sandwich" and you get recipes from people like Jamie Oliver and Tom Kerridge, and the Guardian has an article about how to achieve the "perfect" fish finger sandwich. They're not just delicious, comforting and easy, they're also trendy as hell. No wonder the aforementioned scary/cool people were getting into them.
Recently, I was asked to take part in the Ocean Hero campaign. This is a campaign by Loaf, which is a fantastic app I've been working with recently, and the Marine Stewardship Council. The MSC are the organisation who set the standards for sustainable fishing and traceability and work with scientists, fisheries, seafood producers and brands to promote sustainable fishing and safeguard seafood supplies for the future. They use cutting-edge forensic science to make sure the fish on your plate is sustainable, which is pretty cool, and are so accurate that 99.6% of MSC products are correctly labelled as sustainable, which is pretty damn fantastic. Find out more about the MSC by watching this video.
They asked me to create a speedy seafood recipe using MSC certified fish. I'm a huge believer in eating and living as sustainably as possible (ask me about the summer I spent interning on a green-issues website and hear me talking passionately about cleaning products and nappies, I dare you) but not a huge fan of fish, so I went for the wimpiest possible option and decided to use some MSC certified cod fillets from Sainsbury's to make fish finger sandwiches.
Making your own fish fingers is easy, especially if you buy breadcrumbs rather than making your own, and there's something incredibly satisfying about pulling them from the oven when they're all crisp and golden and knowing that they're entirely of your own creation. If you've got kids you could get them involved with making them, or if it's just you you can have a satisfying supper on the table in 30 minutes or less. It tastes just as good as using shop bought fish fingers and tartare sauce, but with added pride that you're cooking and eating sustainably and that you're basically a food magician, a culinary Dumbledore if you will.
Now for the exciting bit – what you can win! Loaf and the MSC are challenging you to become an #OceanHero. Make this recipe, or your own version of it, and share a photo on Twitter or Instagram using the hashtag #OceanHero for the chance to win £75 of food shop vouchers – and tag me in it too on @jimsyjampots, because I'd love to see what you come up with!
Fish finger sandwiches
Serves 2
For the fish fingers
- 200g MSC certified cod fillets, skin removed
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 75g golden breadcrumbs
- 1 lemon
For the sandwich
- 2 baking potatoes, cut into chips
- Spray oil
- 3 tablespoons of extra-light mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons of mixed gherkins and capers, chopped finely
- 4 slices of thick farmhouse bread, buttered
- Crispy lettuce and tomato slices, to serve
- Heat the oven to 200C/Gas Mark 6. Pop a tray sprayed with oil into the oven to heat up
- Slice the fish fillets into thick strips
- Beat the egg in a wide, shallow dish with salt and pepper. Spread the breadcrumbs in a second dish and mix with the zest of the lemon
- Dip the fish strips in first the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Make sure they're well coated. Put on a plate and in the fridge to cool
- Boil the potatoes in salted water for 5 minutes, then drain and steam dry. Tip the potatoes onto the tray, spray with oil, then bake for 15 minutes
- Shake the tray with the potatoes in it and add the fish fillets. Cook for 10 minutes, turn the fish, then cook for five minutes more
- Whilst the fish is cooking, lay the lettuce and tomato on two of the slices of bread. Mix the mayo with the gherkins and capers, then divide evenly between the sandwiches and spread on top of the lettuce
- Lay the fish on top of the lettuce and sauce and squeeze over a little lemon juice. Top with the slice of bread, and serve with the chips
Mmm mmm mmmmm. Utterly gorgeous. And so speedy!
Don't forget, make your own version of this and Instagram/tweet me a photo with the hashtag #OceanHero to be in with a chance to win £75 of shopping vouchers.

Many environmental activists warn that ignoring climate change is leading to dramatic ecological and humanitarian catastrophe. Some say we've already passed the tipping point – that rising sea levels and collapsed ecosystems will threaten our very survival. How do we process such challenging predictions? Do we take comfort in critics who denounce these activists as exaggerating Cassandras? Or has the horror of ecological apocalypse driven our species into nearly suicidal denial? What's a humanist to do?

Do the health benefits of raw milk outweigh the potential risks. Are the benefits proven. What about the risks. There are many suppliers of Garcinia Cambogia in Canada.
Garcinia cambogia canada How Garcinia Cambogia Works Garcinia helps people lose weight through a variety of mechanisms. The principle active ingredient is called HCA, or hydroxycitric acid.
This compound is a natural extract found in the leaves of the Malabar Tamarind plant. Pure Garcinia products hypnotheraly contain other natural GC extracts, such as Gorikapuli. However, the majority of the weight loss effects come from HCA. These weight loss benefits are: Elevates metabolism Suppresses appetite Blocks carbohydrates from turning into fats once inside the body Burns off fat deposits in the body Reduces food cravings Increases energy To ensure Sarh you reap all of these Sarah singleton hypnotherapy in your Garcinia regimen, remember to take the supplement at the same time every day with a glass of water and a meal.
Full directions come with hypnothetapy products. The back of the bottle has all the information you need. But remember, this is a natural supplement that does not carry the risk of side effects that medications do.
The absolute most important thing to look for in a Garcinia Cambogia supplement is the purity of the pill. The higher the HCA(hydroxycitric acid) concentration, the more mileage Swrah are going to get out singlteon the supplement.
All brands will contain some amount of the extract Sraah the actual fruit, but the amount of the active substance can vary a lot. There are plenty of fly-by-night products around(pretty much all of the ones in local stores) that only offer a very subpar purity. Often times such supplements(like ones sold at WalMart) only contain 20 or less HCA- even when they are marked as higher(this was the conclusion of a recent study).
Such low-grade products(like the ones from GNC usually) are basically scams, replete with fillers and additives and dont do much to give you the true benefits of the natural extract. One hypnotherpy the biggest xingleton of GC is its ability to prevent carbs from becoming fatty acids once inside the body- which is a result of the HCAs effects. Remember to take the dosage that is recommended on the bottle and do not deviate from it.
The best thing to go with is the Pure Garcinia Cambogia Extract brand, as these supplements contain a verified 60 HCA concentration and are 100 pure GC(the other 40 being other natural GC compounds such as Gorikapuli). The Top Garcinia Source In Canada The best supplier of 100 pure extract is shown here. This particular Garcinia Cambogia is a top-notch product that has been proven to get real weight singlrton results in daily users.
This is our top recommendation for Canadians as the shipping is very fast. They also offer special deals where you can get free bottles if you buy several at a time.
I pack my 6 pack lunch hypnogherapy and try to time taking garcinia cambogia at meal 2 and 4. The time in between meals with this product is a bit longer compared to the past when I found myself dipping to my next meal after an hour and a half :) I absolutely love this supplement because for me, it did everything that it claimed to do.
I've been taking it steadily for only about two weeks now and combined with a pretty good workout routine and diet, I've already lost 5 pounds. This supplement really curbs my appetite and cravings throughout the day, which was always my biggest struggle with weight loss.
Hypnotyerapy don't find myself eating because I'm bored anymore. I find that I want to eat only very small portions. The only thing that has been singletob is getting used to my new appetite. I've been throwing out a lot of my food because I physically feel like I cannot eat that much, and if I do eat too much then I don't feel so good. However, I'm learning to keep all my meals small and frequent (just like I should have been doing all along!).
I plan to definitely buy this product again, I really love it and finally, I've successfully changed my eating lifestyle.
Dieting is Out. Dieting sucks. It tends to lead to cravings… and hunger. This generally causes people to give up on their diet and gain the weight back. For this reason, most conventional weight loss methods have a terrible success rate.
Very few people succeed in the long run. This is where a popular weight loss supplement called Garcinia Cambogia extract steps in. According to many health experts, it can reduce appetite and help you lose weight, pretty much without effort. Now… Im a big fan of supplements and self-experimentation.
Ive personally experimented with a ton of different supplements throughout my life, although only a handful have stuck with me. Given the raving reviews bypnotherapy Garcinia Cambogia, I got excited and decided to take a closer look at this supplement and the science behind it. What is Garcinia Cambogia. Garcinia Cambogia Fruit Garcinia cambogia is a plant, also known as Garcinia gummi-gutta. The fruit of the plant looks like a small, green pumpkin and is used in many traditional Asian dishes for its sour flavor.
In the skin of the fruit, there is a large amount of a natural substance called Hydroxycitric Acid Sarah singleton hypnotherapy.
This is the active ingredient in Garcinia Cambogia extract… that is, the substance that produces the weight loss effects. Bottom Line: Garcinia Cambogia is a plant often used in Asian recipes.

Does Garcinia Cambogia Actually Work. Woman Sarah singleton hypnotherapy and Holding a Supplement I managed to find several research studies on Garcinia Cambogia, in both animals and humans. According to some studies in rats, it can inhibit a fat producing enzyme called Citrate Lyase, making it more difficult for the body to produce fat out of carbohydrates (1).
Other rat studies show increased levels of the neurotransmitter serotonin. This could theoretically lead to reduced appetite and cravings (2). There are actually a whole bunch of studies in rats showing that Garcinia Cambogia consistently leads to significant weight loss (3, 4, 5, 6).
However, what works in rats doesnt always work in humans. Bottom Line: Studies in rats show that the active ingredient in Garcinia Cambogia can inhibit a fat producing enzyme called Citrate Lyase and increase serotonin levels, leading to significant weight loss. A Look at Some Human Studies Fortunately, I also found several human studies on Garcinia Cambogia. All of these studies are so-called randomized controlled trials, which are the gold standard of scientific experiments in humans.
The biggest of the studies included 135 overweight individuals, which were split into two groups (7): Treatment group: 1 gram of Garcinia Cambogia Extract, 3 times per day, taken 30 minutes before meals.
Placebo group: The other group took dummy pills (placebo). Both groups also went on a high-fiber, low calorie diet. These were the results of the 12 week study, which was published in The Journal of The American Medical Association (a highly respected scientific journal): Heymsfield, et al.
1998 As you can see, both groups lost weight. But the group taking Garcinia Cambogia extract actually lost less weight (3.

Administration should permit non-MIT participation in IAP
After reading that enrollment in Independent Activities Period was declining, I was dismayed. IAP is a unique opportunity for students to pursue interests of their own when they otherwise would not.
I am currently a sophomore
in the College of Engineering at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, and I know of no college or university, including Cornell, that has such an innovative program.
If enrollment in IAP were declining, surely MIT would not hesitate to increase enrollment (and revenue) by opening IAP to students outside of MIT. After hearing of such vast opportunities existing during IAP from my MIT friends, I decided to write to the IAP office if they could open IAP to students who did not attend MIT.
This would seem like a logical move. By opening IAP to non-MIT students, you would not only increase enrollment, but also provide an environment for non-MIT students and MIT students to interact. How often do MIT students have the opportunity to relate experiences and interests with non-MIT students in the same fields? Not often at all.
So I wrote to Associate Dean for Student Affairs Mary Z. Enterline to inquire about participation in IAP. Her response was as follows: "I appreciate your interest in participating in IAP. Unfortunately, as you are already aware, MIT does not admit special students solely for IAP. Because we have a 4-1-4 calendar year, there is no centralized registration during IAP and we do not set fees for individuals."
Yet Wellesley students are free to register for IAP activities, and their academic year is structured differently than MIT. I urge the IAP department to open IAP to all interested students. This will not only revitalize IAP with an increase in the number of participants, but offer an environment for students from different schools with the same interests to interact and share experiences, as well.
Only good can come out of opening IAP to outside students. It would be a shame if IAP were to be terminated due to a lack of interest from MIT students. I urge MIT students to take advantage of such an opportunity, and hope that this unique and exciting program will be opened to non-MIT students in the future, because IAP, in its MIT form, exists nowhere else in the world except for MIT.

Matthew 4:18-22 Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. And He *said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. Going on from there He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and He called them. Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
3 years ago I was reading this passage when I asked the Lord…"Jesus, if You were to come find me and call me to be your disciple, where would I be, what would I be doing and what would you tell me? I wanted to enter vision and see what He would show me. I love it so much when God uses visions to speak to our hearts and most of the time visions are symbolic and interesting to interpret.
So, I entered vision and watched it like a short movie. Surprisingly, I found myself inside a plant nursery! Funny because I have never worked in a plant nursery before nor have I focused ever on growing plants and such. But this was symbolic for what He was showing me. I even found a picture on the internet with the same set up of what I saw in my vision and added it below, except in this picture, the middle section is low on the ground, plants growing in a cemented area. In my vision this middle section was plants on top of a table. All around the middle were tables filled with plants. I was working among them. Then in the vision I saw myself noticing Jesus coming towards me from outside of the nursery on the right. I did a double take when I realized it was Jesus! He walked around and came on the inside. We smiled at each other and He started to help me in my nursery. I also saw us standing face to face, holding hands and just enjoying each other's company and having a good time. But then I turned and looked at my plants and realized that the whole nursery, where plants were supposed to be, I saw only dirt in the pots. No plants. It looked so barren. I started feeling so heart broken and disappointed. Even writing this, all those sad emotions came back to my memory. It was such a deep feeling of deferred hope. I felt all strength and motivation left me, feeling I didn't even want to bother any longer working in my nursery. It felt like all my hard work was all in vain because it had not produced anything. I couldn't believe how barren it all looked! No strength was left in me seeing this sad state.
Then suddenly, above our heads, I noticed an irrigation system. Water started spraying out from the top onto all my pots! First I noticed the corner where we were both standing, plants started growing instantly forming tall bushes. Then I noticed that the opposite end the same thing started happening except the middle section which was still barren. But the plants on both sides started growing fast, filling in all the way to meeting in the center all around the borders of my nursery. So thick and tall were the plants that you couldn't see the outside of the nursery any longer. And then the same started happening on the table in the middle. There too all my pots were filled with thick, green, luscious plants! Then I saw Jesus and I started dancing and kicking our feet together in celebration. And then the vision ended.
What a happy ending. He showed me a condition in my work at the time, which was causing emotional burnout and tiredness as I was feeling all was barren in results. But showing me also that He intends to restore and bring all back to life! Hallelujah! We wait on You, Lord. Come refresh us with the water of Your Spirit. Come find us and make us your disciples. We want to walk with you in all areas of our lives.

January again.
This year I had better intentions for the month. I had planned, not only to be busy but also to be happy. The funny thing about my "happy plan" is that the only thing involved in the "plan" was that I choose to be happy. Certainly this is a possible thing to do, but I might have been smarter to give myself helps along the way.
This doesn't mean I'm unhappy today, it just means that the melancholy I felt a little yesterday and the grumpy I felt a bit this morning were both confusing surprises to me. I tend to deal better with emotions when I know why I feel them.
But here is what I realized this morning. I was thinking about the coming week because my roommate had asked me if today was my daughter's birthday. "No," I said, "it's (and I had to count the date and days on my fingers) Thursday." This, then made me realize a lot of interesting similarities that are occurring this year that haven't occurred since she was actually born….
The week that Sarah was born the camp I worked at (more like the family I lived with) had their staff retreat. This started Monday and went until Wednesday. My former husband and I didn't go because I was due to give birth on the 9th and so we didn't sign up, thinking we could have a new baby to take care of on the 14th when the retreat started. We did, however, go and visit them on the Tuesday, the day I went into labor. This year they are having that retreat not only on the same dates, but also at the same location.
Thursday was her day. Until I remembered this, I had totally forgotten that for the first few months after she died I counted the Thursdays. For some reason, her birth/death day falling on the same day of the week this year leads me to feel like some loop is being closed. I stopped counting Thursdays at some point in the first year, but now I know there have been 5 years of Thursdays. Can you believe she would be 5?
There's no chance to get stuck in grief about it and from the beginning I didn't want any of it to be about my feelings. Her life wasn't about me only and my life cannot be about her only. I'm grateful for the gifts God has given. I'm grateful for his grace which holds us. I'm grateful for his perspective- that he reminds me what a very short time we have here on earth.
Other painful and miraculous things have happened in the last five years. What sticks out to me is God's presence and his tender care. I'm not just saying that to sound spiritual. What CS Lewis said is true, "God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains." I don't know if "shout" is the word I would use, but I certainly have felt held tightly many times. I've felt looked upon, listened to, led forward… maybe even poked at… by God. He is not just a God for emergencies, but he's a God for every day.
After the doctor handed us our daughter and she was inches from oblivion, I started to head out into the future in my mind. It was not a good thing to do and thankfully Gorm's example of being present brought me back from that horrible future tripping to live in the moment we were experiencing together. What I marvel at now is that some of my fears in that moment did come true but also so much more. Much more beauty and love and growth.. so much more healing, laughter and goodness has come than I could have guessed.
God doesn't waste anything. And I'm so grateful to be here, grateful for both sadness and joy, grateful for a few hours with the most perfect little girl and grateful that I will, in fact, see her again one day.
Happy Birthday, Sarah!!

Last Night's Affair
Last night could have been any other night in my past, as it seems the theme of some of my adulthood.
It reminds me of the time I thought it was great, at 19 in Hawaii, to have drunk, oblivion sex on Waikiki beach. I had gone swimming naked with a boy I had just met. Starry, euphorically-hazed romance, falsely reminisced upon with affection. But, I think time does funny things to my memory.
So, if more time passes, will last night's events become a memory I hang onto with the intention of recalling it fondly later?
Because, right now, last night was cheap. It was a date with a bad ending. It was dinner and shooting and ice cream and sex and it was sticky and shallow and empty and meaningless. It didn't feel at all like the way I remembered feeling on Waikiki Beach.
Idealizing my memories and disguising the painful truth. Dressing up an event with scenery, with clothing, with delusion. How long until last night's cheap date turns the sand cutting my back and the tears running down my face and the chill from the breeze on my damp body into a night of starry oblivion with an unfamiliar lover and a vacation affair? That one took 16 years.
