Tu B'Shevat, the festival of trees or "New Year of the Trees" is a Jewish holiday that begins at sunset on January 24, 2016 and ends at nightfall on the 25th. At this time, it is customary to eat foods featuring the Seven Species and to bless them before partaking. The seven species are wheat, barley, grapes, figs, pomegranates, dates, and olives. {The recipe and sides below hit five of the seven species; see italicized ingredients.}
Today Tu'BShevat is celebrated much like our Arbor Day here in the United States. Trees are planted in memory of loved ones and friends. Click here for Tu B'Shevat recipes and to learn more about this holiday.
recipe: chicken w figs & orange
Serves 4
Suggested side dish wheat or barley couscous topped with pomegranate seeds
Set oven to 375. Heat olive oil in a heavy, oven-proof skillet that is large enough to hold the chicken in a single layer. Over medium-high heat, brown chicken on both sides {skin side down first}. Add shallot, 1 cup of wine, and the chicken stock to pan. Place in pre-heated oven for about 40 minutes {set timer for 25 minute} or until chicken is cooked; may be 45-50 minutes if chicken is on the bone.
During the last 15 minutes of cooking the chicken, begin preparing the orange wine sauce:
In small saucepan, heat remaining ½ cup of wine, wine vinegar, honey, and juice/zest of orange* if you don't have food-grade essential oils {zest of 1/2 an orange and juice of whole orange}. Cook over low heat until the honey is melted. Add the halved figs and poach, about 15 minutes, until figs and tender and sauce begins to reduce {will thicken slightly}.
Remove chicken from the oven. Set back on the stovetop. Test chicken to be sure it is cooked through. Set chicken back to the stovetop, set to a low-medium heat, and pour the orange wine sauce over chicken. Cook for a few minutes more; basting the chicken with the sauce and juices from the pan.
*Add the Wild Orange essential oil at the end of the cooking process to preserve the therapeutic benefits of this tangy, flavorful ingredient that is high in antioxidants and uplifting to body and mind. If you don't have fresh thyme, you may also add just a drop {or less, using a clean toothpick} of thyme essential oil.
Tip to adding essential oils to a sauce:
Remove a small amount of sauce to a ramekin. Add the essential oil to the ramekin, stir to combine before adding back to the sauce. Be sure to give the sauce another stir before serving.
More recipe notes:
About safely using essential oils: Only use food- or therapeutic-grade essential oils that have been GRAS {generally recognized as safe} tested for internal consumption. If the bottle doesn't have Essential Oil Supplement facts, do not take internally.
Honey: Whenever possible, use honey from a local purveyor. In Santa Fe, Louella and Ed Constanza, Constanza Orchards, are my go-to beekeepers. Honey contains natural flavonoids, antioxidants that can prevent or slow cell damage in the body.
Please contact firstname.lastname@example.com to learn where to buy pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils for use in recipes.

Made in Chelsea's Louise Thompson goes topless as she wears nothing but a pair of jeans with 'Bite me' written on the bum
Reality TV star, 27, receives criticism for the cheeky snap
LOUISE Thompson has shown her playful side by posing topless in ripped jeans.
The Made in Chelsea star shared the saucy pic with her Instagram followers, but not all of her fans approved.
The jeans are emblazoned with the words "Bite me, don't touch, don't think about it, too much."
One Instagram user wrote: "No! Louise please stop, not sexy" while another put: "Just how much work have u had done on your face??? Too much [sic]."
Another follower accused Louise of editing the picture: "Is this photoshopped pic? Something looks weird in this photo. These jeans definitely look wrong on you."
Known for her girl-next-door likeability and charity work, some of Louise's fans were uncomfortable with the reality TV star's nudity.
One fan commented: "I hope you don't feel like you need to be topless to sell their products.
"Your beautiful with clothes on too. Unless you want too, don't stoop to this. [sic]"
Louise, 27, rose to fame in 2011 as a cast member of E4's Made in Chelsea and has since gone on to front several charity campaigns and was a contestant on The Jump in 2015 where she landed in an impressive fourth place.
Her love life has been played but she's now found a more private romance behind the scenes in hunky personal trainer, Ryan Libbey, who she fell in love with after several training sessions together and it looks like the pair are extremely dedicated to their intense fitness regime. The loved up couple recently shared snaps of their home workout.
Louise has recently been showing off her toned body in a series of swimsuit selfies on social media.
During her stint on Made in Chelsea, Louise experienced heartbreak over her relationships with co-stars Jamie Laing, Andy Jordan and Alik Alfus.

Smidt Heart Institute
Preparing for a Tilt Table Study
A tilt-table study is used to check for changes in heart rate and blood pressure when your body's position is changed.
This test is most commonly done when a person has periods of losing consciousness or nearly fainting.
- Wear comfortable clothing or your hospital gown
- Do not eat or drink anything for at least six hours before the test. If you have diabetes, be sure to ask your doctor about this. Not eating can affect your blood sugar levels.
- Check with your doctor about all of the medicines that you normally take. You may continue to take your heart drugs. However, your doctor may request that you stop taking certain drugs.

After 10 years of news reporting, I am about to launch a new project on Global Edmonton. This brain child was born not long after the arrival of my son in January last year.
You would think after nearly a decade covering hard news, I would devote a good chunk of my maternity leave to consuming news. What better time to catch up on current affairs, magazine features, and documentaries? Maybe I would get the chance to write some freelance articles. Rrrrrriiiiiiiiight. I laugh now when I look back at my intentions for the year "off." Did I mention I also planned to train for a 50-kilometre mountain race while on maternity leave? Oh, Laurel.
I found myself devoted 24 hours a day to a pooping, crying, snot-nosed little monster. And by all accounts, I had a "good," "calm," "happy" baby! I threw myself into researching everything to do with raising a child (an interesting shift for someone who had never even changed a diaper pre-baby).
A million questions circled in my mind on a daily basis: Was he growing at a good pace? Which developmental milestones should I watch for? How should I choose a daycare? Should I put him in swimming lessons?
I wondered if I was alone in my concerns. Nope.
Meeting with other parents and checking out blogs, I realized how many other people shared my questions. I wanted to be able to go to one place that covered everything; somewhere I could get some answers from someone in the same position as me. Then I thought, maybe I could build a place like that.
So, this Feb. 15 – appropriately Family Day – we are launching Family Matters. It will cover all of the issues parents want to know about, from child care and development, school issues and money, to safety, technology and discipline. And there will be a place for fun stuff too.
What are your burning questions, concerns and ideas? Please feel free to leave your suggestions in the comment section below or contact me on Facebook or Twitter.
You can count on catching Family Matters every Tuesday on the Early News at 5 and on Sunday's Weekend Morning News, but look for it other days, too. Online, bookmark globalnews.ca/familymatters.

My Jeep maintained its blessed and boring reliability throughout the rainy 700 miles of U.S. I-75 and U.S. Hwy 2: almost exactly twelve hours of a sustained 2050 RPMs on the 4.0L straight six in 5th gear; or, just over two full tanks of gas.
Escanaba is near enough to halfway that I stopped there at dusk. I had just eaten a sandwich from the cooler, so I was able to take a moment to stop at the local brewpub, Hereford & Hops. I was after of a growler of their porter, which had been unquestionably perfect exactly one year earlier. They didn't have the porter on tap, though, so I tasted the IPA but ended up stuffing a very affordable jug of their oatmeal stout into the back of the Jeep for sharing later with a few friends.
Then it was dark, and mostly done raining. The stretch of woods road between Crystal Falls and Ironwood is desolate and beautiful in the daytime. At night it's a 60-mph "searching for service" Sasquatch gauntlet in 100% pitch darkness with only the occasional overloaded, over-the-yellow-line, overdriving-its-headlights logging truck passing you head-on at a combined speed of 130mph to keep you company. Fortunately, there are plenty of gravel turnouts where you can calm your nerves and let the Jeep catch its wind (assuming you're not thinking too hard about Sasquatch).
It's hard to be contemplative on the outbound journey of a trip like this. Too much excitement and too many unknowns to really know what to contemplate yet. Being a recent expat from northern Minnesota, going home is still Going Home. Not just a visit, as if by an outsider. Each time I return I notice more things that are different and start to believe more that "home" is its own real place, even without me – but on the outbound journey, I'm still going Back Home and thoughts of change can't break through. Friends, family, and deer season are waiting.
That, and I tend to abuse the Jeep's remaining speakers with folk or bluegrass or listen to a book, each of which helps to pass the time. The drive across, once I was out from under the bridge, was a high-contrast blur. Foggy Lake Michigan beaches. Blurred dark iron bluffs. One ghostly heron rookery a half mile from the road in an otherwise treeless marsh. No deer. Dozens of abandoned rental cabins along the lake. A few gaudy tourist traps, trying to spoil it all. Signs for towns and rivers Hemingway fished in.
After the blinding lights of Bessemer and Ironwood, MI, I rolled into Wisconsin and across the Bad River Indian Reservation (where one had best Stay Under the Speed Limit at 12:00am). I crossed all of the many Wisconsin Lake Superior tributaries (undoubtedly shoulder-to-shoulder with hungry steelhead) including the storied Bois Brule; eventually the St. Louis River, marking the Minnesota line; then through Duluth across Chester, Congdon, and Amity Creeks, and finally the Upper Lester River (my Curtis Creek), and I was home.
My brother was waiting up for me when I drove in. We looked at the stars and talked about life and hunting and the next few days and the next few years. Home.

Yosemite National Park is experiencing high fire danger, along with continued hot and dry weather patterns. Due to current and predicted fire conditions and fire behavior, the Superintendent of Yosemite National Park implemented Stage 1 Fire Restrictions until further notice.
By order of the Superintendent Yosemite National Park and under authority of Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 2.13(c):
- You may not build, maintain, attend to or use a campfire or cooking fire (including charcoal fires) within Yosemite National Park, except in designated areas below 6,000 feet in elevation. Portable stoves using pressurized gas, liquid fuel, or propane are permitted, as are alcohol stoves (with and without a shutoff valve) including alcohol tablet/cube stoves. "Sierra" (twig) stoves are not permitted.
- No smoking below 6,000 feet, except within an enclosed vehicle, a campground or picnic area where wood and charcoal fires are allowed or in a designated smoking area. All public buildings, public areas of concession buildings (including restrooms), other areas as posted and within 25 feet of any non-single family residential building remain closed to smoking at all times.
- Campfires and cooking fires may still be used in designated campgrounds, picnic areas and residential areas in developed portions of the park in accordance with park regulations. Designated Campgrounds and Picnic Areas: Upper Pines, Lower Pines, North Pines, Yellow Pines, Camp 4, Wawona, Bridalveil Creek, Hodgdon Meadow, Crane Flat, Tamarack Flat, White Wolf, Yosemite Creek, Porcupine Flat, Tuolumne Meadows, Lembert Dome, Tenaya Lake, Glacier Point, Cascade, El Capitan, Cathedral Beach, Sentinel Beach, Swinging Bridge, Church Bowl, and Lower Yosemite Falls.
There are no administrative exemptions to this order. This designation will remain in place until rescinded.
Fire restrictions reduce the probability of an accidental fire that could threaten visitors and employees during times of high fire danger. Cooperation in complying with these temporary restrictions is greatly appreciated.

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro warned his country's right-wing opposition leaders on August 9 not to stir up violent unrest as the threat of a recall vote against him waned, the Morning Star said on August 11.
Nicolas Maduro
Venezuelans taking part in a voluntary program to boost a slowly developing agricultural sector, described by the US media as "slavery". The United States media's latest offensive against Venezuela's socialist President Nicolas Maduro targets a new sustainability program that transplants urban workers to farmland. Some quarters of the mainstream media have equated it with slave labour.

It's been three years now of food shortages, inflation, and queues in Venezuela, and the millions of people involved in community and movement organizing have been the most affected. But they've also defied right-wing and general expectations, and even perhaps the expectations of the Maduro government, and have become stronger and better organized as a result of the hardships.
Graffiti on the Kimberly Clark Corporation factory gates reads: "No to the closure".
Indigenous communities representing various nationalities marched through the streets of Caracas on June 2 to show their support for the government of Nicolas Maduro and Venezuela's Bolivarian Revolution. The groups taking part in the demonstration were responding to a call made by the government to develop grassroots solutions to the economic crisis the country is facing.

Agustin Otxotorena, a Basque executive living in Caracas, grew tired of constant calls from friends and relatives in Spain telling him that there was no food in Venezuela. So on May 20, he began publishing photos on Facebook of supermarkets in upscale sectors of Caracas filled with goods.
Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa spoke out on June 1 about efforts by right-wing political forces in Latin America to oust democratically-elected governments, saying that it would set a dangerous precedent for democracy in the region. "Right-wing politicians don't just want to return to power, they want to return with a thirst for vengeance," said Correa during an interview with Ecuador Public Television.
Right-wing protests hit the streets of Caracas and other cities across Venezuela — and in some cases turned violent, attacking police and other targets. The protests were part of a May 18 national day of action to demand that electoral authorities speed up the process of scheduling a recall referendum against left-wing President Nicolas Maduro. The national mobilisation came after right-wing leader Henrique Capriles gave a press conference on May 17 in which he invoked violence and called for the country's armed forces to "pick a side".

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Talks between Lufthansa (LHAG.DE) and its main cabin crew union have failed, the union said on Saturday, raising the prospect of more strikes at the German carrier.
Lufthansa is in talks with various staff groups as it seeks to cut costs in order to compete better with low cost carriers and Gulf rivals.
A long-running dispute with its pilots over pay and conditions has already resulted in more than a dozen strikes over a period of 18 months.
The cabin crew union, which represents 19,000 staff had given Lufthansa until Nov. 1 to put forward a better offer in long-running talks over pay, retirement benefits and working conditions.
Despite a constructive start to talks over the weekend, Lufthansa refused to reconfirm agreements it had previously made verbally, Nicoley Baublies, head of the union, told Reuters.
"Strikes are a possibility," Baublies said, adding that the union would announce its next course of action on Monday.
Lufthansa was not immediately available for comment.

Tanning rabbit hides is an age-old pastime that some people still practice today. The rabbits are not slaughtered simply so that their hides can be tanned, but are used for other purposes, which leave behind their pelts for tanning. The process of tanning rabbit hides is a fairly simple one that allows you to preserve the fur for other uses, including making clothes, blankets and for show.
Remove the skin from the newly deceased rabbit and place it into a 5-gallon bucket of fresh cool water. This allows the skin to cool. The skin can remain in the water for the length of time it takes to complete the processing of the dead rabbit.
Remove all traces of blood from the skin by rinsing the skin multiple times. This will prevent the skin from becoming stained during the tanning process. Skin stains are not a problem, however, unless you plan to create a garment that allows the skin to be worn on the outside instead of turned in.
Combine 1 cup coarse salt and 1 cup alum in 2 gallons of room temperature water. Stir to ensure that the solids have completely dissolved before introducing the skins. Make sure to wear rubber gloves to prevent the alum from getting onto your skin.
Place the skin into the mixture and stir it with a wooden stick. Allow the skin to soak in the room temperature liquid for 48 hours, making sure to move the skin around in the liquid at least two times per day.
Remove the pelt from the solution, squeezing out the excess, making sure not to wring the skin. Do not discard this solution as you will be using it again during this process.
Remove any remaining flesh and fat from the skin. Using a steak knife, separate the tissue from one corner of the pelt and work it forward. The underlying tissue will usually come off in one piece if you work slowly and gently. When you have finished removing this layer, rinse the remaining hide with cold water.
Add 1 additional cup of salt and 1 cup of alum to the original salt/alum mixture. Mix the ingredients until they are fully dissolved. Place the hide back into the mixture and move it through the liquid with a wooden stick. This time, allow the skin to soak in the mixture for seven days, stirring twice daily.
Remove the pelt and wash it in warm soapy water. Shampoo works well as it is mild and smells nice. Rinse the shampoo out of the hide thoroughly with lukewarm water, ensuring that you remove all of the soap. Then hang the hides to dry in a cool, shady area. It will take at least six hours and upwards of two days for the skin to dry completely.
- Make sure to wear protective gloves and eyewear to prevent burns to your skin and eyes.
- Rex hides provide great hides for tanning as the hair is soft and plentiful.

Product Description
If you think web design is beyond your reach, or if you want your existing web site to look more professional, this thoroughly updated classic is the place to turn! In these pages, best-selling authors Robin Williams and John Tollett share the creative ideas, useful techniques, and basic design principles that are essential to great Web design-all in the context of the most current technology, software, and standards. Throughout, the authors' aim is to inspire you and spark your creativity rather than sedate you with pages and pages of code. To that end, you'll find loads of real-world examples, interesting illustrations, and the simple instructions you need to implement the techniques and concepts described in these pages.
Amazon.com Review
While the second edition of The Non-Designer's Web Book won't answer all of your technical questions about the inner workings of the Web, it explains most of what a beginning designer needs to know: what the Web is, how it gets to your computer, how to use it, and, most of all, how to design for it.
Any artist can tell you that you have to know how a medium works to get the most impact from working in it. A basic understanding of how the Web works enables the good designer to create the most effective sites. This book thoroughly discusses the different kinds of graphics that are used on the Web, when to use one over another, how to make the most of text styles, and how to design navigation systems.
The comparisons are the best stuff here--good design vs. bad design, why designing Web pages is different from designing printed pages, and why a site looks terrific on one monitor but terrible on another. Two chapters on properly preparing graphics and setting typography for use on a Web site describe how to avoid obvious mistakes that would make your work look amateurish.
Not limited to design, The Non-Designer's Web Book shows how to get a site up and running, register the domain name, and add it to search engines. After the design is finished and implemented, the site has to be uploaded and updated; this is explained, too.
If there is one fault with this book, it's the lack of information on specific authoring tools. The barest overview of the current crop of tools appears in chapter 3, "Just What Are Web Pages, Anyway?", but a discussion of why you should choose one package over another is absent.
Don't let that fault stop you from buying this book, however. Plenty of magazines regularly have Web authoring tool "shootouts." What the magazines don't do, and what The Non-Designer's Web Book excels at, is tell you how to make well-designed pages. If you're going to build Web sites, for either personal or professional use, but you have no clue where to begin, start with this book. It's easy to read, devoid of confusing jargon, and full of dos and don'ts to help you avoid common snags. --Mike Caputo

This past weekend was a little busier than normal and with that I feel like I've had absolutely nothing done. Usually, when I have a full weekend off, Bunny and I try to keep our errands and social activities to one day and just relax and enjoy each other's company the other. This time? That didn't happen.
Saturday was busy with errands. We went looking for a winter coat for Bunny and winter boots for me, and while we didn't buy any we found some good contenders for both of us. We visited about half of the city. After that we went over to a cousin's for dinner, and we had an all night laugh along with the extended Rabbit family. (I also got a sneak peek in Bunny's aunt's craft stash, because we're really the only sewing crafts enthusiasts in the family. I'm also maybe getting an afghan made for me. I'm only a little excited about this.)
Sunday was, if anything, even more social. It's hard trying to fit in socializing when all your friends live an hour away by car, minimum (and I don't drive). So Bunny drove us in to Toronto and we split up to spend the day with our university roommates. Neither of us did anything fancy - just hanging out and recharging our friendships which was perfect.
With all that, though, by the time Monday rolled around not only was I exhausted but I felt like I hadn't done a single thing this weekend. I certainly hadn't touched either of the baking projects I've been lusting over (home made caramels, and bailey's butterscotch blondies - these both will be made soon). I'd thrown a load of laundry into the washer, but completely missed putting it in the dryer, so it needed to be done twice. I did get a little bit of sewing done on the quilt (I'm overwhelmed by how little is left to complete the quilt top) and a fair bit of reading.
It makes no sense that after having a busy weekend I feel utterly unaccomplished, but it's the truth. The quiet times are when I Get Things Done, and I just didn't have those this week. Luckily I have a mid-week day off to recharge. My plans are to do nothing (except all the quiet things).

This is definitely the new Apple. After two Google Voice clients appeared on the App Store this past weekend, the firm is putting more previously banned apps onto the virtual store shelves, among them the official Napster client.
Surprised? Don't be, it's part of Apple's updated policies regulating the more relaxed terms of iOS development.
Although Apple drew the youngsters to its iTunes ecosystem, there are still those among us that remember the glorified days when Napster ruled the scene with illegal peer-to-peer song downloads. Following an ugly legal spat with the RIAA, Napster now has a new owner, a new CEO, and a different business plan focused on unlimited (and legal) music streaming at ten bucks a month.
If you happen to have a Napster plus Mobile Access subscription, their brand new iOS app is for you. Napster for iOS lets you stream songs in a similar manner to rival app Rhapsody, from Real. You can set the program to cache songs, albums, and playlists for offline access.
Other features include custom playlists, Genius-like auto-mixing of your favorite song to create an instant playlist blending similar artists, and the ability to save your last hundred songs played so you can easily replay favorites.
The Napster service commands a ten million-strong song catalog, nearly matching the twelve million tracks offered on Apple's iTunes Store.
Naspter is a free download for iDevices running iPhone OS 3.0 or later. The software requires a $10 a month Napster plus Mobile Access subscription to work.

This year, since we've got a cheap audio playing device and having seen Jason's awesome digital led MatrixFaces, we thought that some digital caricatures of friends and family would make great stocking filling gifts. So promptly ordered a load of 8x8 LED matrices and waited until they arrived...
They're supposed to be two-colour (red and green) 3mm matrix blocks but the ones that arrived are massive! They're also single colour, with just 16 pins - one set of 8 pins for the "rows" and one set of 8 pins for the "columns". By driving the appropriate pins high/low you can activate any single LED in the matrix. Drive each of them quickly enough, and using POV (persistance of vision) you create the illusion of many LEDs being lit at the same time.
Which got us thinking back to our (failed) word clock project about a year ago.
Instead of a home-made 9x10 matrix, perhaps there's some way we could squeeze a word clock into an 8x8 matrix and use these ridiculously large (in LED matrix terms) modules to create a ridiculously small (in wall clock terms) erm wall clock...
No matter how we tried to spell out all the words required, we couldn't quite get them all to fit into an 8x8 grid. So what if we put two of these side-by-side?
Well now, a 16x8 LED matrix not only gives us more than enough letters to spell out all the words needed for our word clock, but also solves a little niggling issue we'd previously tried to ignore:
Word clocks with five minute increments are accurate to the last five minute segment. Between five to, and o'clock, say, the clock will always read "it is five minutes to x". Then at the o'clock position, it read "it is x o'clock" until it's five past.
By having a larger matrix (albeit by accident than design) we've got extra lights to add in some extra words. So we've added "nearly" and "just gone". This should make our clock accurate to about two minutes at worst.
- At 2 minutes to six o'clock, it would read "it is nearly six o'clock".
- At six o'clock, it would obviously read "it is six o'clock"
- At 2 minutes past six, it would read "it is just gone six o'clock"
- And at 4 minutes past six, it would read "it is nearly five past six"
- At five past, it reads "it is five past six"
and so on - each two minute segment before a five/ten/quarter past would have "nearly" at the front, and each two minute segment after a five/ten/quarter past time would have "just gone" added to it. This means that you should be able to work out to within two minutes the actual time on the clock.
It's not millisecond accuracy, but it's a bit better than most word clocks manage!
To make the clock, we're planning a laser-cut face over the LED matrix with the letters as laid out in the spreadsheet above. We may even coat some glass with semi-opaque paint to give a smoked effect, and laser this off. The exact finish has yet to be decided.
Since the two LEDs matrices side-by-side give us a 16x8 grid, we can simply keep track of the current time and convert this into an array of single-byte values, each sent out over a full output port (PORTB for example) on a PIC microcontroller, while pulling the appropriate cathode "column" low to make the corresponding LED(s) light up:
In the above example, we want to light up the words to spell out "it is five minutes past six".
If we highlight the letters required, and at the bottom of every column add up the values of all the "lit" characters, we can see the array of value(s) required to make the LED matrix light up.

Step 1Roast the peppers: Place the peppers on a rack over a stove-top burner and roast, turning constantly, until charred on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Place the peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside for a few minutes (this will give the peppers time to steam, so they peel more easily), then remove and peel each one, rubbing off the charred skin and discarding the stems (remove the seeds if desired). Do not rinse.
Step 2Place the peppers in a blender, along with the onion, garlic, parsley, milk and crema and puree well to form a sauce. Set aside.
Step 3In a pot, warm the butter until it is melted. Add the poblano sauce and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 10 minutes to marry the flavors, stirring occasionally.
Step 4Meanwhile, cook the pasta. In a large pot of boiling liberally salted water, add the pasta with the bay leaves and cook the pasta a minute or two less than the packaging instructs.
Step 5Drain the pasta and add to the pot with the poblano sauce, discarding the bay leaves. Stir or toss the pasta to coat with the sauce. Remove from heat and add a drizzle of olive oil and a good sprinkling of grated cheese, then toss well. Top with more grated cheese and serve immediately.

|Things were different back in Lil' Johnny's day.
I've had every kinda rotten job you can imagine growin' up and gettin' myself through school. And I wouldn't have had a chance at half those jobs if the federal government had kept imposing [a] higher minimum wage.OK, 60 Minutes, you're journalists. You should be ready for that question. If Scott Pelley is too chicken shit to follow up with the obvious facts that prove the Speaker is bullshitting, then maybe your ratings would go up if you hired someone who could....
Here's Steve Benen:
Boehner expressed relief that the government didn't keep "imposing" a higher minimum wage at the time, but in reality, the government actually did keep "imposing" a higher minimum wage, raising in 1974, 1975, and again in 1976 – just as Boehner was working through college.Now, was that so hard?
And adjusted for inflation, those minimum wages had greater purchasing power than the minimum wage now.
Too bad all those old folks at home just nodded along with the Speaker while Scott Pelley moved on to the next question.
Too bad all those old folks will never know the real math: "...if the federal minimum wage had risen in step with both inflation and average labor productivity since 1968, the federal minimum today would be $25.50 an hour."

My Year of Adventure has been an interesting, exciting and insightful year for me. I had the intention of doing a lot of traveling and assumed that my "adventures" would be about going and doing. But, in the end, I realized that a lot of my adventures were a shifting of my attitude and my mindset. So, it was interesting to look back and see which were my most popular adventures with you.
It appears that the most popular adventures were the ones that were more insightful and a shift in attitude (versus latitude). I have had a lot of fun writing this series this year, and look forward to starting my new series!! Next week, I'll introduce you to what is coming in 2018!!
So, here they are. My Most Popular Adventures from 2017!
5. 5 Tips for Surviving Life's Hard Seasons – week # 14
This post was by far one the hardest for me to write! I'm guessing that there are a lot of folks out there who are surviving life's hard seasons! So, I think this resonated with you all. I'll be the first to admit that some days I'm better at surviving than others.
My situation involves helping take care of my mom who has dementia. I am by no means the sole care-giver, but one of several. None-the-less, the days are long and hard! It is so hard to watch someone you love decline.
So, if you happen to be going through a similar situation, this article might resonate with you, too.
4. Family History: The Fascinating & Eye-Opening Truths – week # 35
For my birthday, I received one of the Ancestry DNA kits. I had a vague idea of what some of my family history was, but this was just fascinating. I was able to trace different family members back to the 1600's to different places in England and the Netherlands. There's pieces missing still, but I am excited to continue digging and hopefully flush it all out!
I think that getting these DNA kits is pretty popular right now, so that made this article the 4th most popular article of my Year of Adventure series. If you received one of the DNA kits recently, you might enjoy reading this article!
3. Sunshine Blogger Award – week # 40
This was pretty exciting for me! Being nominated for the Sunshine Blogger Award basically means that other bloggers have noticed what I'm doing. To me, that really meant a lot! It was fun receiving it and it was fun finding other bloggers to nominate.
If you're looking for some new bloggers, I found some great ones that you might enjoy! You can check them out in this article!
2. My Series of Unfortunate Packing Mistakes – week # 39
I thought it was funny that this article about how I really messed up packing for a trip to Portland, Oregon was my second most popular post in the series. I guess you all enjoyed reading about how badly I messed up, lol. It was a funny time – Hurricane Irma had just come through, we didn't have any power, and I had to try and get my things together to travel to a blogging conference. Apparently, not a great combination!
So, if you'd like to avoid all my mistakes, grab your FREE Vacation Packing List here!
1. My Surprising Day as a Hometown Tourist – week # 2
This was one of my favorite articles to write, because I got to be a tourist in my hometown. I live in a small town in Florida – DeLand – and it was a lot of fun to act the tourist. I was pleasantly surprised at how much there is to do in our little town.
We have lots of great restaurants, lots of history and some really great parks! If you're anywhere in Central Florida, I highly recommend coming over for the day and visiting our lovely town!
New Year, New Series
I realized early on in 2017 that I really enjoyed having a series that followed me through the year. For me, My Year of Adventure was kind of an online diary of my year. It was fascinating to look back and see where I was when, what happened when, and what I accomplished.
And, since I enjoyed it so much, I decided that I wanted to have a different series for next year. So, stay tuned next week for the start of my new series – Hometown Tourist Project! It will run for all of 2018 and I think we will all enjoy it very much!!

These are the teeth towards the back of your mouth that aren't so visible when you smile. Find out what their use is!
In the previous post, I discussed some of the purposes of anterior teeth. Now it's time to talk about the less visible ones – posterior teeth!
Posterior means to be "situated behind", as defined by Merriam-Webster. These teeth are generally not visible when you smile with teeth. Unless you're Julia Roberts! These teeth are have cusps, occlusal surfaces, and are intended for different uses.
Animals that are herbivores tend to have teeth that are broader with flatter surfaces. They make it easier to process and digest plant foods. These back teeth are primarily used for grinding.
There are a total of 20 posterior teeth. The maxillary and mandibular each have a first pre-molar, second pre-molar, first molar, second molar, and third molar. You can see the posterior teeth labeled in the image below:
There are some distinctions between maxillary and mandibular posterior teeth. The shapes differ, the amount of cusps can vary, and size differ. The premolars are smaller than the molars.
These back teeth play just as important of a role in the a person's bite/occlusion. Where the first molars occlude are the most important. How they occlude is known as the key-to-occlusion, which I'll talk about in its own post.
The way all teeth come together play a crucial role in how one is able to process food, speak, and so much more!

Ambulation, Plymouth
Building on the history of art and ambulation, for the eight contemporary artists and collectives in this group show, journeying itself becomes an artform. Projects designed to get ideas on the move include Simon Persighetti and Tony Whitehead's soundtrack to experience city noises from the 1950s-70s, while Phil Smith and Polly Macpherson have created objects inspired by a walk round a local 19th-century Royal Navy complex, including fossils, gargoyles, biscuits and a bag of clay evoking the softness of flesh. Architecture cooperative ad:HOC have designed a mobile home for an itinerant art project and Tim Brennan sees walking as a tool for creative contemplation. Similar exercises in free thinking are encouraged by Bridgette Ashton's alternative map of Plymouth. Like an anti A-Z, this takes walkers on random expeditions around curious sites of no historical importance.

Simon Yuill, Glasgow
Simon Yuill's film, sound, internet and printed publication art makes a series of sophisticated, theoretically reflective and painstakingly researched observations on the social, cultural and economic politics of various local societies. Questions are instigated about the politics of labour, architecture, ethnic identity, the law and ecology. This is essentially subversive stuff. One video and photo piece documents and celebrates the history of the Pollock Free State, a Glasgow woodland camp, initially formed in the 1990s to protest against the building of the M77 motorway, which developed in time into a substantial working class community of environmental concern.

Hypercomics, London
Masterminded by comics expert Paul Gravett, this show does great things with notions of the expanded comic, drawing on the innovations of interactive hypercomics – web-based, choose-your-own-adventure type comic strip experiments. It's worth seeing for artist Adam Dant's input alone – his Swiftian wall drawing follows the journey of Dr London through the city's digestive tract. Daniel Merlin Goodbrey's project explores both the dreamlife and waking existence of the sole archivist of glam rock dictator Hieronymous Pop's murky history. Dave McKean's offers perspectives on childhood betrayal, while Warren Pleece's animated installation gives a glimpse into the lives of others.

ORIGIN010, Sheffield
Paul Evans's installation adds up to a personal hymn to natural diversity. Semi-abstract watercolour and graphite drawings, accompanied here by Chris Jones's succinct haiku poems, are images of nature in the making. As ambiguous as they are highly evocative, the amoebic cells might be ultimately unidentifiable yet they are nevertheless forceful presences that make your imagination creep. There's also an enchanting animation of metamorphosing butterflies, created in collaboration with the Humanstudio group. The central image here, however, is A Cure For Melancholy, Evans's life-size drawing of a narwhal, whose horns were apparently sold as unicorn horns and an antidote to creative and philosophical disillusionment.
Sheffield Institute of Arts Gallery, Mon to 12 Sep
Robert Clark
Archiving Place And Time, Wolverhampton
A selection of politically concerned art from Northern Ireland created since the 1998 Belfast Good Friday Agreement. The artists generally approach their difficult and delicate subject from oblique, ironic and non-partisan perspectives, signalling a recognition of the complex tensions and ambivalences involved in the conflict. Some of the work is almost mockingly humorous in its dealing with the unthinkable – Rita Duffy's Dessert is a chocolate cast taken from a decommissioned AK47 paramilitary gun – but other works uncompromisingly face grim facts. Willie Doherty's photography of The Westlink, a now demolished pedestrian bridge spanning the Catholic Falls Road and the Protestant Donegal Road, is a haunting image of division and dread.

Fourth Plinth Maquette, London
Love it or loath it, Trafalgar Square's Fourth Plinth is British public sculpture's hot spot. Coinciding with the Olympics, the 2011 commission is the most prominent yet, and the next six proposals, presented as a show of maquettes, are eagerly anticipated. Top secret until the unveiling, the spread of world class artists bodes well: Allora & Calzadilla, Elmgreen & Dragset, Katharina Fritsch, Brian Griffiths, Hew Locke and Mariella Neudecker. While Fritsch's eerily slick icons like neon-bright Madonnas have made her a global art star and Elmgreen & Dragset promise a glossy mix of queer politics and design culture, it will be interesting to see what London-based Griffiths – who's turned junk materials into huge vessels of adventure, from spaceships to Krypton Factor-style obstacle courses – will suggest for that small slab of stone.
The Crypt of St Martin-in-the-fields, WC2, Thu to 31 Oct
Skye Sherwin
Locate, London
A quest for origins and originality has taken three young artists on very different journeys here. Inspired by the infamous British art forger Shaun Greenhalgh, Sarah Pickering has photographed a selection of his forgeries in a mock up of his living room as created for a BBC documentary. Mel Brimfield is something of a faker himself, with his film installation where actors give suspiciously different accounts of a performance that perhaps never was. Meanwhile, Aura Satz's sound piece explores where sound is located, with listeners required to plunge their heads inside a sculpture featuring an antique brass horn or witch's hat.

Steven Cairns, Stirling
The cut-and-paste aesthetics of collage might be a century old, but it appears to have been given a new lease of cultural relevance with the availability of digital sampling and layering. Collage is, of course, an art of compositional fragmentation and free association, a means of experimenting with dislocated spaces and unpredictable images. Steven Cairns makes full use of digital collage's ability to lift images from a wide diversity of cultural sources, to superimpose previously disconnected images just for the experimental hell of it. Furthermore, his use of collage has something in common with the "cut up" techniques of such subversives as William Burroughs and Harmony Korine, a technique of insubordinate disruption of proper and decent modes of cultural behaviour. A new video piece focuses on the hypnotic rhythmical geometries of gabber, a hardcore techno subgenre.

BuddyPress.org & BuddyPress Codex updates
Boone reported that he will soon be adding a "My Topics" tab to the Support forum view (showing both replied to and started topics) on bp.org, pending further testing. The aim is to improve usability.
Mercime and Boone have also begun to implement big changes to the codex. If you visit the codex, you'll notice that there has been some reorganisation. They are moving over some of the content that mercime created from scratch in his wiki mockup but it would be nice if others would pitch in and fill in some of the gap.
BuddyPress 1.2.6
As we've fixed a lot of important issues in this upcoming release, they need to be tested thoroughly to ensure a solid release. We encourage everyone who wants to help speed up the release by testing the latest 1.2 branch version of BuddyPress; we'd particularly welcome any feedback around the activity stream.
Remember that http://testbp.org/ always runs the latest development version, so to avoid updating your live site, you can help by testing on there.

The 23 year old posted an article about the family's slave links on social media on Friday (26Dec14) and called on African-Americans to track down the descendants and make them pay reparations.
The DeWolf family's ancestors reportedly traded slaves for 50 years until 1820.
The Chasing Time hitmaker took to Twitter.com and raged, "I wonder where the descendants of the DeWolf family are today. they should all have their houses burned and their finances seized. This generation of young black kids needs to make a Concerted effort to seek out living descendants of major slave trading families. They Owe us Money."
She added, "Jews and Native Americans all got reparations because they organized… Aetna (health insurance company), New York Life Insurance Company, and (investment group) JP Morgan and Chase (bank) all have deep connections to the Slave trade, and are… still holding on to that capital. They used the money they made from our flesh and blood to fund the Industrial revolution."
She went on to urge fans not to "get distracted with reality tv and rap music and fashion and all that other dumb s**t", adding, "We are the children of the people who perished in the name of modern capitalism and we deserve a piece of that f**king pie. I would give up my music career to fight for reparations. To even the score once and for all."
DeWolf family patriarch James DeWolf is featured prominently in a 2008 documentary, Traces of the Trade: A Story from the Deep North, which describes the clan's major role in the United States slave trade.

The IRS previosuly annoucned that approximately 800,000 taxpayers who received coverage via Healthcare.gov and qualified for premium tax credits had received the wrong information on a Form 1095-A, "Health Insurance Marketplace Statement." This information was sent to taxpayers via mail and many of the taxpayers used the information on Form 1095-A to file their 2014 taxes.
Obamacare Tax Form Error
A new notice says that About 50,000 taxpayers who had filed their returns before an error in an Obamacare tax form was discovered will be able to keep the money. In a statement Tuesday, an unidentified Treasury Department spokesperson said that those who have already filed their tax returns will not be subject to additional taxes once the correct information is available and they do not need to file an amended tax return.
Barack Obama's law provides subsidized private health insurance to people who don't have access to coverage on the job. Because those subsidies are delivered as a tax credit, people who benefit from them have to account to the IRS that they got the correct amount they were legally entitled to.
That's done on the yearly tax return, with the help of a new form called a 1095-A. It's like a health care W-2 for people who got subsidized coverage under Obama's law
The incorrect information that appeared on the 1095-A specified the premium amount for the "second lowest cost Silver plan" in the taxpayer's area. The amount is supposed to represent the benchmark plan used to determine the amount of the premium tax credit the taxpayer is eligible to receive.
Amending return to Fix Form 1095-A Error
A tax filer is likely to benefit from amending if the 2015 monthly premium for his or her second lowest cost Silver plan (or 'benchmark' plan) is less than the 2014 premium. For example, if a filer's original form lists a benchmark premium of $100 and her updated form lists a premium of $200, it may be in her interest to refile. Individuals may want to consult with their tax preparers to determine if they would benefit from filing amended returns. As CMS announced last week, affected individuals who have not yet filed their taxes should wait to file until they receive their corrected forms.

Have you ever tried Old British Sweets before? I haven't tried them yet, but would love to some day. You can sign up to try some through Old British Sweets for $19.99 British pounds. Sounds like candies Harry Potter would be able to try. This is a very interesting subscription service!
The website is quite basic for this company, and it seems that the candies are shipped straight from Britain, but it is not quite clear. To be honest, the website looks a bit sketchy, I think the company is just starting out. Check on them, see what you think.

Bisma, the president of BMB Image Consulting, wanted to refresh their website and spruce it up a little.
We changed the colour scheme form the original black background to a new white background with white alligator skin background accents. The font was updated and the style of many of the headings were also updated to match BMB's other marketing materials.
A few changes have given the site a whole new life!

The County of Kaua'i filed suit against defendant landowner KAPHA North Shore LLC on Feb. 28 in an effort to reopen a public beach access to the eastern end of Kauapea Beach, also known as Secret Beach, according to a county news release.
"I applaud our county attorneys for their diligent work over the course of the last several years to hold the land owner accountable," Mayor Bernard Carvalho Jr. said. "Ensuring all members of the community access to public spaces is our kuleana to honor the wishes of our kupuna and serve present and future generations."
The property in question is an approximately 21-acre portion of the Kilauea Gardens Subdivision located on an oceanfront bluff overlooking Kauapea Beach near the Kilauea Lighthouse. As a condition of subdivision approval, and of Special Management Area (SMA) permitting required for the development of the Kilauea Gardens Subdivision, the developer was required to provide a pedestrian access easement from the public road to the shoreline across the land currently owned by KAPHA LLC.
The prior owner of the property blocked the public from using the trail despite the community actively using the trail across this land for decades. The blocking of this public access has been a top concern of the community for years.
In an attempt to resolve the dispute over this public trail without litigation, the county began discussions with KAPHA LLC's Hawai'i representative in early 2017. Unfortunately these discussions reached an impasse and the mayor concluded that going to court was the only way to resolve this matter.
According to the Wall Street Journal, KAPHA LLC, is owned or controlled by a trust connected to Russian heiress Ekaterina Rybolovleva, daughter of Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev. Business Insider reports that the property, along with a second adjacent parcel of approximately 7 acres previously owned by actor and rapper Will Smith, is currently on the market for $29.5 million.

Priory Bay Yurts, Isle of Wight
If you're looking for somewhere that really puts the 'glam' in glamping site, then look no further than the newly opened yurts at Priory Bay on the Isle of Wight. With a fully-fledged butler service, it bears little resemblance at all to camping. Except for in one respect: the fact that you can wake up in the morning, throw open the door of your yurt and practically step straight out onto the nearby beach. (The Priory Bay Hotel has its own private beach, and as a yurt-dweller you get much more privileged access to it than ordinary hotel guests.)

Bloomsburys, Kent
Catering for pretty much everybody but with a particular penchant for hen parties, Bloomsburys in Biddenden in Kent have teepees, yurts and a 1967 airstream caravan for hire. While youre there you can also record your own CD, catch a gig with some top musicians, relax in the hot tub, have a beauty treatment and shop in the garden centre, all without leaving the premises. Oh, and if you dont fancy cooking, theres a fully licensed restaurant on site that serves up delicious food and drink, and is particularly renowned for its breakfasts and Sunday lunches.

Ecopod Boutique Retreat, West Coast of Scotland
If you want to well and truly get away from everything, then the Ecopod Boutique Retreat on the West Coast of Scotland is the place. Its not cheap but, not only are the pods super-luxurious - with internet, a film and music library, 60s and 70s furnishings in a beautiful dome-shaped structure letting in plenty of natural light - but they're also extremely energy efficient (using around 20% of a normal building of similar size). Two and a half hours drive away from Glasgow or Edinburgh, and you could be lying in one of the pods hot tubs, staring out at the Isle of Mull or Castle Stalker with a glass of locally brewed beer in your hand Now thats worth travelling (and paying) for.

The Yurt Retreat, Dorset
At just half an hours drive from the Jurassic Coast, The Yurt Retreat in Somerset makes a brilliant spot to stop over and break the journey on your way to Devon or Cornwall. But its also a lovely holiday location in itself, giving the impression of being completely isolated and yet not more than half a mile away from the gorgeous country village of Hinton St. George, home of the fabulous gastro pub, The Lord Poullet Arms. Run by two brothers who live in nearby Bridport, The Yurt Retreat is, fairly unusually, an adults-only campsite with four yurts and two oversized shepherds huts.

Hollings Hill Farm, Herefordshire
Hollings hill Farm in Cradley is one of Featherdown Farms 30 farms with glamping sites. Set in the stunning Malvern Hills, Hollings Hill remains a working dairy farm with goats, cows, ponies and chickens as well as six tents, each sleeping six people, which, when the cost is split are extremely reasonable. There are wood burning stoves, bread ovens, barbecues and camp fires, or if you prefer not to cook you can order home-made meals from nearby which will be brought directly to your tent-door. Then, when youre ready to venture out you can visit the spa town of Malvern, Eastnor Castle or go walking in the hills. If a good night's sleep is all but guaranteed after that, it's worth bearing in mind that the sound of a tractor might wake you up a little earlier than anticipated

And one more glamping site for luck...
Fear and loathing toward tents - carrying them, pitching them, even understanding the pitching instructions to these unwieldy contraptions - must be one of the top reasons people dont go to more festivals. Hotel Bell Tent, top purveyor of swanky festival accommodation, thoroughly supplants these obstacles. The company sets up spacious, top-quality canvas bell tents at all the major UK festivals, making for a warm, easy welcome to some of the summers most exciting events. Their four- and five-metre tents are tall enough to stand up in, and come equipped with air mattresses, Egyptian cotton bedding and bath towels, rugs, low coffee tables and tea-candle chandeliers - all of which casts a flattering light on the entire concept of festival-going.

If you haven't yet had the good fortune to come across anything written by Caitlin Moran I urge you to remedy that right now. She is outrageously funny and speaks loud and often on the topic of feminism. It's rare for me to read something on feminism that makes me think again, and laugh out loud but she has done it.
She has a new novel out, How to Build a Girl. Buy it. I laughed until I cried. I shook the bed laughing so much that I woke my husband up. It prompted me to go back and read her autobiography How To Be Woman. You must buy that too.
Since reading it it has had a profound effect on my choice of knickers. Let me share an extract with you but I warn you: this may damage your relationship with underwear for ever.
Women need, as a basic right, to be given enough underwear for it to cling to their exteriors, like a starfish – and not slowly become pulled into the deep gravity of their inside, and get internalised, due to motion friction. It's insanity.
I'm going to lie this right on the line, right here, right now: I'm pro big pants. Strident feminism NEEDS big pants. Really big. I'm currently wearing a pair that could have been used as a fire blanket to put out the Great Fire of London at any point during the first 48 hours or so. They extend from the top of my thigh to my belly button and effectively double up as a second property that I can escape to at the week ends. If I were going to run for parliament it would be solely on a platform of 'Get Women In Massive Grundie's'.
(She goes on to talk about the amount of knicker on display through tight trousers, low cut jeans etc)
And what these results tell us is that there is scarcely a women in Britain wearing a pair of pants that actually fit her. Instead of having something that, sensibly and reassuringly contains both the buttocks – what I would call a good pair of pants – they're wearing little more than gluteal accessories, or arse trinkets…………With my own eyes I have seen women walking around out there with anything between two and eight buttocks – and placed anywhere between the hip and the mid thigh……Women, this manner of underwear cannot be an act of sanity. Why are we starving our bottoms of the resources – like an extra metre of material – to stay comfortable? Why have we succumbed to pantorexia?
I think you can probably guess her conclusion to that final question.
So, time to storm the lingerie departments! Become a big comfortable knicker feminist and join the revolution! Caitlin Moran, I salute you.
PS To avoid all doubt, you can wear what knickers you like to one of the many RenewYou courses happening around the UK and beyond. And no one paid me, or even gave me a free copy, to write this. I just want to share the joy!
Posted on August 22nd, 2014 by Jane
One Response to "Are You a Big Knicker Feminist? (with all due credit to Caitlin Moran & Bridgette Jones)"
I must admit, this gave me a giggle. I'll never forget when my gran (bless her) gave me a pack of pants for my Christmas one year. I think I must have been about 14 and oh my god, I was mortified to receive pants the size of my 4 man tent. They were very pretty, but as a shy and introverted teenager I knew this would not improve my street cred. Why on earth would I think that people would know what pants I was wearing?! I knew it didn't come down to that though, it was the fact that I was at an all girls boarding school where we often washed our own underwear in the sink. Sending them to the laundry usually meant that they always got lost. I was not going to wash and dry these on the radiator in a dorm where 6 others (and the rest) would see what my pants looked liked. 🙂

Online Gambling – How to Increase Your Chances of Winning
Gambling has been around for hundreds of years. Actually, it is so prevalent in the society it continues to be regarded as a part of human culture. From ancient Romans, to ancient Chinese, to modern civilizations, gambling has indeed been part of history. In fact, even some of the most famous monarchs are recognized to have gambled and a few are also addicted to it. Today, you will find that a lot of people from all over the planet are actually visiting the internet because of gambling online.
With internet gambling, you will be able to test out your luck in the actual comforts of your own home.
When it comes to gambling, there's that age old question regarding gambling, that is how to win in it.
Basically, you should know that gambling is gambling. There isn't any be certain that you'll always win whenever you gamble. Whether it's offline or online, you will still experience losing. There might be theories on gambling, but you need to keep in mind that even these theories won't claim that they can offer you wins constantly. Actually, some theories even emphasize that you'll experience losses.
You need to face the fact that whenever you gamble, you're always risking something in order to gain something. However, in gambling, you will find that you will find strategies on how to improve your likelihood of winning and minimize losses.
By using these pointers, you can be certain that you will be in a position to enjoy gambling more, and minimize chance of losing lots of money.
First of all, you shouldn't set an amount that you should win right away of gambling. Instead, you need to set some money that you should bet. And, it is crucial that you ought to never ever set an amount of money to bet that you cannot manage to lose. Keep in mind that many people have plunge deeper in to debt because of doing so. Some weren't even addicted to gambling.
Treat gambling as a type of entertainment. In fact, gambling quite a bit of fun and very exciting. However, you should never treat gambling in an effort to earn money. Just gamble for fun and then any wins you get, address it as a bonus and buy something nice, for example getting a new shirt or obtaining a new pair of shoes.

These are the strategies which are very reliable when you go gambling online. Always remember that gambling is extremely entertaining and can provide you with a lot of thrill and excitement. However, never take gambling seriously. Simply have fun by using it rather than address it for you to earn some cash. A good gambler is a person who always knows when to stop. Remember these pointers and you can be sure that you can improve your chances of winning and minimize losses.

"What do you think is more efficient:
Increasing traffic on your website
or optimizing your site for conversions?"
What is Internet Marketing?
In order to be successful online, you need three things: Clear and measurable objectives, the right strategy to achieve those objectives and the right set of tools to help you reach your goals. Internet Marketing is the discipline that holds these three things together.
Internet Marketing can be defined as advertising and marketing carried out using a set of Web tools and techniques to promote direct online sales, generate business leads from website, and build brand awareness and recall.
We achieve these objectives by driving more traffic to your website, making more of your visitors convert into buyers, and generating a high Return on Investment (ROI).
Secret Ingredient #1: Your Website
It may be possible to do online business without having a website (such as with eBay, Etsy, or other such platforms), a successful business will need a great website at some point in time. Your website is the hub of your Internet marketing. It should provide a solid base for your SEO, PPC, CRO, Email Marketing, and Content Marketing, topics that we'll briefly tell you about.
You have to ask yourself if your site makes it easy for your visitors to achieve their objectives. Does it offer a smooth navigation and a great user experience? Does it have the capacity to capture leads and converts buyers into customers? We do a complete audit of your current website and suggest ways to fix the trouble spots.
…a quick word to mobile friendliness:
If your website is not optimized for mobile yet, you need to hurry to get on the bandwagon! Whether you are dealing with Ecommerce, lead generation, or just publishing content, mobile traffic is exploding, pushing desktop literally against the wall. If I have one good advice to give to you, it is this:
"Get your website optimized for mobile before doing ANY type of Internet Marketing. Otherwise, your clever competitor may be grabbing your market share on mobile while you're busy optimizing your desktop site!"
Secret Ingredient #2: Pay-Per-Click (PPC)
Pay-Per-Click advertising drives traffic, sales and conversions on Google and Bing. Never before has Marketing been able to link advertising dollars to conversions and profit in such a consistent, precise and manageable manner as is possible today with PPC and Analytics.
Not only that, PPC also allows you to run real-life marketing tests to measure the effectiveness of your campaigns, even before you throw money on them. GMI helps you design clever campaigns by using the keywords that drive more clicks and conversions.
PPC is here to stay, and it is a fantastic tool to generate profitable traffic virtually overnight. For more on how to get PPC right, visit the PPC section on this website.
Secret Ingredient #3: Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Since Google released three major updates in its Search Engine algorithm, SEO requires a radically different approach from what was generally practiced before. To learn more about New Age Search Engine Optimization, visit the SEO section on this website.
Secret Ingredient #4:Conversion Optimization
What's wrong with this picture? Advertisers rarely hesitate before spending money on a high traffic source, but their enthusiasm wanes when it's time to make sure their website converts visitors into paying customers. That's precisely where Conversion Rate Optimization kicks in – so what exactly is it? How does it work? Glad you asked! Learn more about Conversion Optimization.
Secret Ingredient #5: Content Marketing
Content Marketing fulfills an important Internet Marketing function: attracting and retaining an audience. In order to fulfill this objective, Content Marketing needs to be 'done right' – but a lot of things can actually go wrong. Visit our Content Marketing page to get a better understanding of content marketing and why it's so important.
Secret Ingredient #6: CRM and Email automation
As your business grows, so do its needs for technology. When GMI has worked with you for some time, a stage may arrive when it may become wasteful, if not impossible, to nurture leads and manage customer data manually. We have the expertise to suggest the most suitable CRM and help your business transition to automation. Automating customer email responses takes the load off your shoulders and sets you free to focus on growing your business.

Several months ago I heard about a super cool bank called the Moonjar.
And after some reading about it we decided that these would be the perfect banks for the girls.
There are three sections that make up a Moonjar.
One for money to be saved, one for money to be spent and one for money to share.
With the addition of these banks into our world we decided that each girl will be given three dollars a week. The passbook that comes with each Moonjar suggests deciding on a percentage to put in each section. However, with how young the girls are we decided not to establish a percentage per section just yet. Instead, they will simply get to decide how much money they will place in each section of their bank each week.
The girls absolutely love that they have a place to keep their money. And they absolutely love that they have a section for money that they can spend, a section for money to save up for the things they are dreaming of (new My Little Ponies are the goal right now) and they love that they have a section for money to donate to people or groups in need. After they put their initial three dollars in they went around and collected all the coins they had been saving in various boxes and purses. It's safe to say that their jars are off to a really great start! In the words of Grace: "Mama, this is the best gift ever!"
