Halloween Candies 2018: The day of scariness has just arrived. Less than 24 hours to go when American youth will be out on streets like a plague of locusts to search for their favorite candy. This day is also known as Allhalloween, All Hallows' Eve, orAll Saints' Eve and celebrated yearly on October 31. (see: Karva Chauth images.)
Coming near to the festive occasion, we have gone through a number of candies to group into best and worst categories. The ones in the worst list were once in the favorites. So, as the day is approaching quickly, we have a ranking of most of the candies. Like everyone, we have also made a list of the same. As you are also a wiser person, so you can correct us with your opinion and rankings because everybody's taste is a little different from others. It will be used to evaluate Halloween greatness.
Halloween Candies 2018
To give ranks to the candies, we have used the following criteria.
- The list of 10 best and 10 worst candies on Halloween are graded on the basis of its awesomeness by how it will be received by another person as a trick or treat.
- These are independent of sizes.
Get started to see the list of candies in bottom ten.
The Bottom 10
- OUT: Candy Corn
Dishonorable mentions: Starlight mints, Wax Lips, Hershey Kisses with Almonds, any lollipop.
- 10. Fireballs – because of the hot cinnamon candies appeal.
- 9. Jolly Ranchers – These are fine elsewhere but not as a Halloween candy.
- 8. Smarties (Down 2) – It is an occasional one to eat. However, a large proportion of American will still use it.
- 7. Dubble Bubble/Any type of gum
- 6. Dum Dums (Up 2) – Even though, they are not terrible, still Dum Dums they should not be in a candy bag.
- 5. Twizzlers (Up 4) – These are bad as need to gnaw them. Moreover, they are hard and don't taste like any sweet.
- 4. Dots – Candy is stucked to the paper.
- 3. Whoppers – Only chocolate is good. It makes malt chocolate awful.
- 2. Bit O' Honey – These are mainly found on carpets stucked to them.
- 1. Necco Wafers – These are poorly designed with dusty circles and not fit for consumption. Gifting it to someone may result into a war
Now, it is the turn for the top 10 best. Let's start with the candies which have been removed from this list.
The Top 10 Halloween Candies 2018
- OUT: Butterfinger – It is solid but lacks identity.
- OUT: Milk Duds – These are hard to chew.
- OUT: Tootsie Fruit Rolls – Seriously, this should be out of the list.
Honorable Mentions: Milky Way, Airheads, M&Ms, 3 Musketeers, Lifesaver Gummies, Crunch Bar.
- 10. Starburst (New) – It is one of the most popular Halloween candies in Massachusetts. It can be considered as one of the top contender in fruit based candies.
- 9. 100 Grand (New) – It will never disappoint you if you have it in your bag.
- 8. Peanut M&Ms (New) – Delicious and have ease to eat and gives a refreshing change with its texture and nuttiness.
- 7. Twix – Caramel, chocolate, cookie, cool shape.
- 6. Baby Ruth (Down 4) – Good one but below snickers. Flawed so out of top 5.
- 5. Skittles (Up 1) – You should have it at least once.
- 4. Take 5 (Up 1) – It's a complete package with salty / sweet combination. As of now, Sea salt is the most popular in this category.
- 3. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (Up 1) – The ultimate piece of combination of chocolate peanut butter. Use it with bright, inviting and PB cups to do the trick.
- 2. Snickers (Up 1) – It has been a consistent contender here. Crust it with caramel / nougat / peanut / chocolate combo. To do the trick, use peanut allergies.
- 1. Kit-Kat – It is the best Halloween candy. It doesn't need any trick to do the work. It has got all the required flavor and crunch in the appropriate amount.
Have fun. Do let us know if you have some other in your Halloween Candies 2018 list. Share it using our commenting section below. stay tuned for more Halloween news and updates. Don't forget to share.

Iron age
Hill fort relics in south Weybridge atop St Georges Hill.
Unable to control its borders and pay its military forces, the Roman Empire gives Britain independence "You British must fend for yourselves…" The only significant settlement in Elmbridge at this time is a Celtic village of unknown name.
Sometime in the 500s two extended Saxon families, Chert and Mulas, arrive and settle either side off the Celtic village on islands in the Thames. Chertsey (Chert's island or meadow) upstream of the Celtic village and Molesey (Mulas' island or meadow) downstream – both survive to this day. They name the Celtic village Wealastun (foreigner's town) – today's Walton.
A further Saxon village, Ditton, is founded on the Thames downstream from Molesey. The Saxon kingdom of Surrey is divided into hundreds for legal and taxation purposes. The local hundred was named after the meeting place – a bridge over the River Emel (now River Mole) called Emelbrugge.
Referred to in a document at 'Waigebrugge' – or Bridge over the River Wey. Land owned by Benedictine Order in 666. Chertsey Abbey.
Ditton splits into two settlements of Ditone (Thames Ditton) and Ditone (Long Ditton).
Weybridge situated in the Elmbridge Hundred, one of ten settlements.
At Domesday there are six parishes in Emelbruge (Elmbridge):
- Chertsey containing the manors of Covernham (Cobham), Webruge (Weybridge);
- Ditone (Thames Ditton) containing the manors of Claigate, Ditone, Immworth and Weston;
- Ditune (Long Ditton)
- Molesham (Molesey);
- Stoche (Stoke D'Abernon);
- Walatona (Walton).
In document of 1284 it is shown as 'Waybrugg'. A simple wooden bridge over the Wey was used by monks and pilgrims to Chertsey Abbey, and Weybridge 'hamlet' would have comprised a few wooden huts and shelters situated along the present day High Street and Church Street. All local people would have had a smallholding on which to grow vegetables, graze stock, with water from River Wey.
Weybridge's St Nicholas, a small medieval church, survived until 1849 to be replaced by St James. First Rector of Weybridge appointed, and there has been a rector ever since.
Henry VIII starts the building of Oatlands Palace in Walton.
The Diggers, followers of Gerard Winstanley, occupied south Weybridge wilderness making the case that land ownership should be based on the tillage of land itself.
The River Wey Navigation opened. It was one of the earliest canals in the country.
Portmore House purchased by Duke of Norfolk. Later became Dorchester House, after Countess of Dorchester, mistress of James II. House demolished in 1822, and the current Portmore House was in 1930s home of Dr Eric Gardner GP and first Honorary Curator of Weybridge, and later to be Elmbridge Museum.
Duke of York purchased Oatlands House, built in the grounds of Henry VIII's 1537 Oatlands Palace.
The Duchess of York is commemorated by the monument on Monument Green, and the Dial Stone from this column is situated next to Weybridge Library (and Elmbridge Museum) adjacent to footpath to car park.
Population has reached 930.
Ditton March (now Esher – Esher Station is still in Ditton), Walton for Hersham (now Walton upon Thames) and Weybridge railway stations opened on 21 May.
Claygate is made a village – separating from Thames Ditton.
As the village's population increase St James' Church replaces the smaller St Nicholas, as it had become far too small for the hugely increased population of Weybridge. In churchyard are the chest tombs of the Duchess of York, Frederica Charlotte Ulrica, Bosomworth and Welland. Church designed by JL Pearson who later designed Truro Cathedral. Relics from St Nicholas church survive in St James'.
Hampton court branch completed on 1 February with one station in Molesey (Hampton Court Station) and another in Ditton (Thames Ditton Station)
Hersham is made a village – separating from Walton. The population of Weybridge reaches 1,200.
Weybridge's St James Church spire completed.
Victorian Brick and Iron bridge built over River Wey to replace medieval wooden bridge.
Oatlands becomes a parish in its own right – separating from Walton – but unlike Hersham does not become a village because in 1866, under the Poor Law Amendment Act, church parishes and civil parishes were separated and Oatlands never gained the status of a civil parish. Oatlands remained part of the civil parish of Walton until 1933 when it became part of Weybridge.
Weybridge's graveyard filled so a new cemetery was created in Brooklands Lane.
In Ditton Hinchley Wood station opens.
Weybridge's St James' chancel extended.
1st February – Weybridge became the first towns (or place) in England to be wholly lit by electricity – but because overhead lines were not popular, the town government decided to go over to gas,
Weybridge's population has reached 3,944.
Portmore Park Estate and The Quadrant developed by Arthur Cobbett, who died in 1906.
Cobham and Stoke D'Abernon become part of Epsom Rural District. Esher, Long Ditton, Thames Ditton and West Molesey become part of Kingston Rural District. East Molesey, Walton (subsuming the civil parish of Hersham) and Weybridge become towns as they are created urban districts.
The funeral of the Duke of Paris who was buried in Weybridge at the old Catholic church. There were many mourners from European royalty in attendance. He was the end of the line of the French royal family who tried to claim back the throne.
Ditton becomes a town subsuming the civil parishes of Long Ditton and Thames Ditton. East Molesey subsumes West Molesey civil parish to become Molesey. Esher becomes a town subsuming Claygate, Cobham and Stoke D'Abernon civil parishes. Weybridge's Gas street lighting becomes operative in September.
Population now 5,300. Weybridge Methodist Church begun, designed by Mr. Gunton, architect, and built by Mr. W. Greenfield.
Weston Green becomes a church parish in its own right – separating from Thames Ditton church parish but remains part of the town of Ditton.
Brooklands racetrack opened.
Oxshott becomes a church parish in its own right – separating from the church parish of Stoke D'Abernon – but not a civil parish and therefore not a village.
Weybridge and Walton's governments merged by Act of Parliament against the wishes of the people. The towns of Ditton, Esher and Molesey and the villages of Cobham and Stoke D'Abernon are merged to into Esher Urban District. Parts of Byfleet, Hersham and Oatlands become part of Weybridge,
Hayfield Hall was built on land adjoining the Methodist church, and used as Sunday school and for social functions.
Brooklands racetrack closed due to war and used as Vickers Aircraft Factory.
Hinchley Wood becomes a church parish in its own right -separating from the Thames Ditton church parish but remains part of the town of Ditton.
Walton and Weybridge local government merged with Esher's to form the Borough of Elmbridge.
Brooklands Museum opened on part of the old Brooklands racetrack.
Claygate becomes a civil parish again after loosing that status in 1895.
Brooklands racetrack becomes site of Mercedes Benz World and a local community park.
Olympic cycle race runs through Weybridge.

When UFC lightweight champion Sean Sherk tested positive for the use of the illegal steroid Nandrolone following his unanimous decision victory over Hermes Franca at UFC 73 in July 2007, he was suspended from MMA competition for a year (later reduced to 6 months) and never regained the title he lost during his absence. Perhaps more importantly, the incident did lasting damage to Sherk's reputation in the fight game and his marketability to the UFC and its sponsors. Though Sherk sought out, underwent and passed a total of three (yes, three) polygraph tests following the incident in an effort to convince the world he had no knowledge of ever having used illegal steroids, by that point few of us were listening.
That's because we've heard it too many times: high profile MMA combatants busted in post-fight testing for the use of banned substances – and the improbable, contorted, cringeworthy defenses they frequently offer in response to the results. Enough fighters have proferred similar denials, non-denial denials, and 'no-comment' comments after flunking steroid tests in recent years that fans of the sport can hardly be blamed for dismissing them out of hand. Fighters' protestations of ignorance following a positive steroid test are, for the most part, drowned out by media condemnation and the hard science that somehow, some way, illegal performance enhancers did after all end up in their systems.
There is only one wrinkle – some of these fighters may just be telling the truth.
Though largely unaddressed to date in MMA media, a slow-motion scandal has been breaking over the North American sports landscape in recent months following the FDA's detection of illegal steroids in over-the-counter nutritional supplements sold in health food stores nationwide. As first reported by the New York Times in July, supplements manufactured by American Cellular Labs and sold in over 100 Max Muscle retail outlets across the country were identified by the FDA as containing various illegal synthetic steroids, including Androstenedione, as well as Stanozolol and Boldenone or equivalents. These are among the most common substances mixed martial artists have been flagged for abusing in recent years (you can find the full text of the FDA's warning letter to American Cellular Labs, including a catalogue of the tongue-twisting illegal compounds its products are alleged to contain, here).
By all indications, professional athletes and the general public alike have been entirely unaware of the unreliability of over-the-counter supplements they believed they were taking to legimitately improve athletic performance. It took a series of kidney failures and other serious health incidents among high school athletes using these products to finally tip off authorities that something was amiss. In late September, the Senate Judiciary Committee's subcommittee on crime and drugs held hearings to review the FDA findings. As the story unfolds, the allegations against American Cellular may prove to be just the tip of the iceberg.
The supplement scandal has not, and perhaps cannot, ever vindicate individual mixed martial artists flagged in the past for doping violations. Each case has proven unique, and it's often only the fighters themselves who know the true circumstances. Josh Barnett's failed drug test this summer not only cost him a shot at world number 1 Fedor Emilianenko's WAMMA heavyweight title, but sealed the demise of the Affliction fight promotion in the process. Barnett's response to the debacle: "I never once thought there would be a problem." But the "Babyfaced Assassin" is a recidivist violator, having been nabbed for steroid abuses not once (following his submission win via strikes against Bobby Hoffman at UFC 34), not twice (after TKO'ing Randy Couture at UFC 36), but three times, including this most recent violation.
Other cases, though, make us stop and evaluate whether fighters have been innocently victimized by renegade sports supplement outfits like American Cellular Labs. When the UFC's "All Access" television series visited with Sean Sherk prior to his July 2007 title defense against Franca, he professed to the camera to be taking a total of 22 different over-the-counter vitamins and health food supplements, each a total of 3 times a day. It is fair to consider whether this supplement regimen contained steroids without his knowledge. Witness the "Muscle Shark's" statements after the positive test: "I didn't know you could go into a store like a GNC and buy something that would have illegal stuff in it, but I guess you can. I was stunned. I didn't know that. I've also started doing my own pre-testing, which I'll do before every fight now just to be sure." (Note, however, that GNC nutritional outlets have not been alleged to have sold products containing illegal steroids, and the substance Sherk was flagged for, Nandrolone, was not among the substances identified in the FDA's recent letter to American Cellular Labs).
Even more strikingly, Vitor Belfort pointed directly to a Max Muscle outlet as the culprit after he tested positive following his 2006 decision loss to Dan Henderson at Pride 32 in Las Vegas. Following the incident Belfort stated: "I bought a supplement called 'Max Tribostak' at Max Muscle in La Habra, California, which contains [the banned substance] 4-Hydroxytestosterone. I had no idea that a supplement bought over the counter at a vitamin store would contain a substance that is illegal in the state of Nevada." For those who believe "The Phenom's" explanation it is the clearest evidence to date that the sports nutrition supplement scandal now unfolding has directly affected the world of mixed martial arts. Belfort was fined $10,000 and suspended from competition for 9 months by the Nevada State Athletic Commission following the infraction.
(For a thorough listing of fighters with steroid run-ins and the statements they have made in explanation, check out the excellent coverage entitled "MMA Steroid Busts: The Definitive Timeline" over at CagePotato.com).
It may be too early to assess the impact of tainted health supplements on the MMA world. But even if Sherk, Belfort or others took steroids accidentally, the fact remains that steroids were detected in their systems, giving them an unfair advantage over their competitors. Furthermore, fighters and their handlers may still be the ones best able to, and most responsible for, bearing the burdens of monitoring and controlling exactly what they take into their systems, particularly on the professional level. But those fighters have a right to rely on the safety and veracity of products bought legitimately over the counter, and some may have paid dearly for a regulatory and enforcement breakdown that is only now coming to light.

Well I did it. We went on holidays and spent time with my Dad and his wife, and we all bonded and got to know each other. My children were smitten with their gran and pop and some beautiful memories were made and will continue to be made – and I've given p my horrid step-daughter ways.
What have you gotten raw and real with recently.
Have you ever felt like telling an aha moment to jump off a cliff or stick it? I have, and well I'm a bit cranky with said aha moment for being such a pain in the butt. I think I have had enough aha moments to fill a lifetime and frankly I'm over it! Yep I'm having a dummy spit because this whole self awareness gig just sucks lemons.
I've been struggling with an issue for a while now with no clue as to what brought it on. I was nice. I was fair. I really wanted our unit to really work. I gave chances. I've even forgiven. However it appears that the issue did not lie with this situation but simply the reverse…I was a wicked step daughter!!! Noooo waaayyy! It was in front of my face the whole time.

Juniper Networks finds rise in Android phone malware, smartphone spyware
The networking giant found a 400% increase in Android malware and a rise in spyware targeting iPhone and Blackberry devices.
The rising use of smartphones is gaining the attention of cybercriminals, according to a new study by Juniper Networks Inc., which tracked a sharp increase in Google Android phone malware in 2010 as a result of the platform's success.
There are many different application layers on a phone and that means there are many opportunities.
Don Bailey, senior security consultant, ISEC Partners
According to the Juniper study, which analyzed malware detected on its customer devices in 2010, smartphone spyware accounted for 61% of all mobile customer infections and 100% of all infections for Android devices. The report, issued Wednesday by the Juniper Networks Global Threat Center, also documented a 400% increase in Android malware, as well as highly targeted Wi-Fi attacks.
Juniper called the rise in Android phone malware a result of a "perfect storm." Individuals took advantage of Android's security model and open ecosystem as well as a user base that is largely "unaware, disinterested or uneducated" in mobile security.
While mobile malware is rising, experts point out that it still accounts for less than 1% of all malware detected globally. The Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, which was issued in April, noted that mobile devices are rarely the source of data loss across the Verizon caseload. But the company said it expected threats to mobile devices to increase and diversify. In a recent interview with SearchSecurity.com, Denis Maslennikov, senior malware analyst on Kaspersky Lab's global research and analysis team, predicts cybercriminals will find mobile devices a lucrative attack vector in the near future.
A spate of Android attacks in 2010 leaked sensitive data from Android handsets, according to the Juniper report. A bank phishing application sent data to an unknown location and the first mobile botnet was formed when SD cards preloaded with the Mariposa botnet were shipped by mobile service provider Vodafone.
In many ways, attack vectors for smartphones and other mobile devices are still emerging, said Don Bailey, a senior security consultant at ISEC Partners, in a recent interview with SearchSecurity.com. For example, near field communications (NFC), a technology that could support payment applications on handheld devices, poses a new threat.
"It gives an attacker a lot more reason to develop malware," Bailey said. "There are many different application layers on a phone and that means there are many opportunities."
Bailey said a lack of standards across device and platform makers and closed ecosystems make it more difficult for security software to gain visibility into processes on a device. The result is very few options available for people to protect their devices today, he said.
The RIM Blackberry and Apple iOS operating systems, which are known for having locked down environments, are also not immune to malware. Though malware is detected in fewer numbers, Juniper said it has identified a number of spyware applications that monitor device communications and can be remotely controlled by the attacker. In addition to listening to conversations, the spyware can monitor email and text messages. "Flexispy2, Mobile spy3 and Mobistealth4, are very effective at concealing both their presence and actions from the user," Juniper said in its report.
The Apple iPhone suffers from little known malware, Juniper said. The threat of mobile malware is higher in Cydia applications associated with jailbroken devices. "Applications exist to obtain user data and clandestinely transmit this information outside of the device," the company said in its report.
Juniper's study supports the relationship between platform market share and mobile malware. Devices running the Symbian platform, one of the oldest and widely used mobile operating systems, are the most targeted by attackers. Malware affecting Symbian devices make up 77% of the virus definitions found in Juniper's Junos pulse Mobile security suite's database.
Attackers are using SMS Trojans that send SMS messages to premium rate numbers without the user's knowledge. In addition, Juniper found background calling applications that charge victims for exorbitant long-distance calls. There are also keylogging applications and worm-like malware that infects devices and spreads to additional phones in the victim's address book.
Increasing Wi-Fi threats
Juniper is also warning that an increase in use of Wi-Fi enabled devices could result in more man-in-the-middle attacks, a common attack technique that can be used on open public Wi-Fi hotspots.
A successful attack can enable a person to log all of the information relayed between the user and the website they are visiting. More sophisticated attacks can even read unencrypted email messages and take over a user's browsing session without the victim's knowledge. A Firefox browser plug-in, Firesheep, automated the process of snooping in on user browsing sessions.

The instrumental track 'Axel F', created entirely with synthesizers by Harold Faltermeyer, featured in the movie 'Beverley Hills Cop' featuring Eddie Murphy and was the theme tune for the character he played, bearing the same name.
This 12" single was a bargain when I found it, years after its release. It features two remixes of the track plus another track from the soundtrack of the movie. It's entertaining stuff, but it's still a soundtrack...
My collection: 12" single no. 630
Found: Plaatboef, 199x
Cost: 2,5 guilders
Tracks: 'Axel F (The M&M mix)' / 'Axel F (extended version)', 'Shoot out'

Axel F - Harold Faltermeyer
In the mid-Eighties, synthesizers were getting increasingly popular as a means to make movie soundtracks. Jan Hammer made a living making soundtracks for 'Miami Vice', and Harold Faltermeyer scored the 'Beverley Hills Cop' movies. His biggest success was the track 'Axel F', which reached number 2 in the UK and number 1 in the Netherlands.
When you listen to it now, it sound a bit dated but it is still a catchy tune. It's hard to believe, though, that movie producers didn't prefer large orchestras instead. It always sounds more impressive, I think.
My collection: 7" single no. 2421
Found: All that music, Leiden, 1994
Cost: 2 guilders
Tracks: 'Axel F' / 'Shoot out'

BMI And Waist Circumference Risk Assessment
Chester J. Zelasko, Ph.D.
March 29, 2005
Think about this: you have a friend who is very overweight. You just know that he's going to have a heart attack if he tries to climb a flight of stairs. Then your other friend, who doesn't look overweight and seems to be in good shape, keels over with a heart attack. It doesn't make any sense, does it? But it happens every day. It doesn't mean that excess body weight is not a factor in the development of disease--it most assuredly is--but assessing the risk for developing a disease is complicated. This is especially true when it comes to non-invasive measures, including anthropometric measurements such as body weight. But recent research has developed a more precise way of assessing such risk, and that's the topic of this Newsletter.
The Body Mass Index (BMI) uses height and weight to calculate the surface area of a human being: the more surface area you have, the more body fat you have, with the exception of those who are very muscular--professional football players, for instance. (
Click here to determine your BMI.
) BMI can tell you whether you're normal weight, overweight, or obese. What it cannot do is predict whether you're at greater or lesser risk for heart disease or diabetes because there are other factors to consider. One of those factors is visceral adiposity or the fat around your waist.
Researchers have discovered that the Waist Circumference (WC) is a much better predictor for determining who is at risk for heart disease and diabetes than BMI (1). If you have a tendency to store fat around your waist, the risk for heart disease and diabetes increases.
The measurement is simple. Using a flexible tape (a measuring tape is included with every
30 Day Plan
), measure your waist at the widest point, usually an inch above or below the umbilicus (belly button). It should just cover your skin without making indentations. Don't suck your gut in and hold your breath! Just stand normally. Measure three times and take the average.
You're at increased risk for diabetes and heart disease if you are:
A woman with a waist circumference over 35 inches.
A man with a waist circumference over 40 inches.
While the WC has contributed more precision to the risk assessment than BMI alone, we know that heart disease and diabetes occur in people who have smaller waists than those cited above. This is especially true for people with a BMI less than 30 (normal weight or overweight, but not obese). There's the possibility that increased fat around the waist, even though it did not reach the WC threshold, would still put those people at additional risk for heart disease.
As a result, researchers recently decided to address that problem (2). They combined anthropometric data from the NHANES III and the Canadian Heart Health Study. Their goal was to increase the sensitivity and specificity of the WC over all ranges of BMIs. Just like the WC threshold for men and women, they wanted to determine if there are more specific WC thresholds for people who were normal weight and less overweight. They used the Framingham coronary heart disease risk index as the criteria for heart disease risk.
They found that indeed, there are varying WC measures that put people at higher risk for heart disease even though they may not be overweight; the table they developed is replicated below. It increases the specificity of the BMI, especially for those whose BMI is in the Normal Weight and Overweight categories. If your waist exceeds the threshold within a given category, you are at a greater risk for heart disease, regardless of your BMI.
BMI Category
Normal Weight
Obese I
Obese II and III
BMI (kg/m2)
18.5 to 24.9
25 to 29.9
30 to 34.9
Waist (inches)
If you find that your WC at your BMI category is more than it should be, make an appointment with your physician and develop a plan for addressing the issue. Remember--these simple measurements are an initial step. Your physician can do additional testing of blood pressure and serum lipids to make a more precise analysis of your health risk.

Global Good Practices in Rural Advisory Services
14 to 17 September 2015 in Issyk Kul, Kyrgyzstan
The 6th GFRAS Annual Meeting took place from 14 to 17 September 2015, with side events on 14 and 18 September. Organised around the topic of Global Good Practices, this year's annual meeting challenged participants to reflect on the process of generating, documenting, sharing, testing, and adapting knowledge and good practices.
130 participants of 54 countries and 12 regional networks argued that sharing, discussing, using, and adapting good practices are part of a wider and complex learning process in RAS. They discussed that learning happens at different moments, can be implicit or explicit, and is a complex and continuous cycle, involving many actors at different stages within agricultural innovation systems and beyond. Thinking about the potential benefits of sharing good practices, participants agreed that a good practice must be end-user oriented, demand-driven, and include best-fit considerations. While it is important to note that there is no 'bad practice' as long as we learn from it, for good practices to be really useful and beneficial for the end-users, we need to strategically decide what, when, and how we share our experiences.
As success and failure of RAS approaches, tools, and methods highly depend on the context, we must include considerations of best-fit into our good practices and document them as well.What are contextual factors (such as the political, economic, socio-cultural environment) and the general characteristics of RAS in the specific geographical entity that influence the success of a good practice? In which contexts do we have to expect challenges in implementing it?
But the participants also addressed the end-users and clientele of good practices, who bear a responsibility and play an important part in the learning cycle too. They are advised to be open, flexible, and innovative to see and use good practices not as one-size-fits-all solutions, but rather as input and inspiration, to be used, re-shaped and recombined to fit in their local context. Without feedback on good practices by end users an improvement of the best-fit considerations and the practice itself is not possible.
Participants recognised the crucial brokering role that RAS, and regional RAS networks and country fora, play in this learning cycle within the AIS. However, in order to be fully able to do so they need strengthened skills and capacities, an enhanced exchange with the clientele, especially with producers and producer organisations, use new tools and means, especially those provided by ICTs, and support inclusive RAS environments that include all actors from all gender and age.
Concretely, participants recommended the following to enhance efficient learning in RAS:
- Promote the idea of learning as a dynamic and circular process that includes many different actors of the agricultural innovation system who share, discuss, test, and adapt experiences and knowledge.
- Define good practices as demand-driven and end-user oriented, which include honest and tangible information and incorporate best-fit considerations within the wider RAS contexts. They should challenge stakeholders to reflect on their own practices.
- Recognise and assume each and every stakeholder's responsibility to act as a catalyst in the agricultural innovation system (AIS) to ensure that good practices are shared, tested, used, and refined in the field.
- Develop individual capacities of RAS providers that go beyond technical skills and enhance career development in RAS to ensure a sustainable, well facilitated, and effective process of experience and knowledge exchange within the AIS.
- Enhance capacities of RAS networks, fora, and champions to allow for them to fully use their potential as knowledge and experience brokers within the AIS.
- Promote community-based approaches and enhance synergies with producers and their organisations, as they are the ones providing the ultimate reality check and feedback regarding workability, sustainability, effectiveness, efficiency, and inclusiveness of any good practice or approach.
- Prominently include all relevant actors of the AIS, especially women and youth, in learning cycles and create spaces for open and honest dialogues amongst the different stakeholders.
- Use and promote ICTs as prominent tools to disseminate, share, and discuss experiences and good practices to reach a wide audience, especially end-users.
- Advocate and work towards an enabling policy environment for RAS that allows for testing, using, and adapting new approaches and experiences.

Here's something a little different for Mod Monday. Instead of the classic shift dress, let's go with a blouse and skirt combo. A fitted collared white polka dot shirt with cap sleeves is adorable when paired with this flared button up navy skirt. Separates as versatile as this can be mixed and matched within your wardrobe, providing endless options. I like adding a splash of color to the timeless white and navy color palate, such as this bright yellow retro purse.

You might be interested in starting your very own yacht hiring firm or business. There are several people out there who can afford to buy a boat. Some can even afford to rent it for a few hours. Some firms even sponsor certain boats for parties or events. It can even be used by employees or CEOS' in order for them to conduct their very own meetings. Here is what you must look into when trying to start your very own boat hiring or luxury yacht company:
You must seek answers within yourself in order to see whether you have the drive, passion as well as the necessary finances in order to take your charter yacht firm to the next level. You will also have to consider whether you will want to have the licensure in chartering from one area to another. The necessary training is a must for you to ensure success of your company. If you are ready you can open your firm in no time. You can seek private ones if you do not want the burden of buying expensive ones.
You must figure out what is the size and type of the boat you want to buy. You will have to start out with one boat rather than many unless you have investors to help you out. Think about how you can use one for several people. Try to decide on whether you want to focus on small or large groups? Think about when you will want to set sail on local pools of water or on international ones?
You must always have the right insurance before you begin a charter yacht business. If you want to operate one you will have to seek licensure which is even commercial. Think about the jurisdiction which will apply to certain types of waters if you plan on using them. Do not forget safety as the insurance must cover your needs just in case you do meet an accident.
You must ask your friends and family members whether they know anyone who owns second hand boats. This will cost you way less than buying a brand new one for use. Make sure you carry out the testing before you sign any paperwork for the boats. Remember that you must carefully look into these factors when you are seeking to start your own company. You will also have to hire people who are motivated and dedicated to the needs of your business. Carry out an in-depth training on the new recruits so that they will match up to what you are looking for.

Floricanto Infantil y Juvenil
By Title
Bring Me More Stories: Tales of the Sephardim. Sally Benforado. ISBN 0915745674. $22.95.
In these short tales, author Benforado weaves together the oral history of a family of Sephardic Jews, from their close knit home in Turkey to their new lives in America. They are stories of a heritage that spans the globe, of centuries-old traditions transported to a different world, and of people who held tightly to the ways of their ancestors, who, like them, left their homes to settle in a strange new land. Following their exodus from Spain in 1492, Sephardic Jews were not allowed to remain on Spanish territories in North America, such as New Mexico and Colorado. Any Sephardim who chose not to leave, had to convert to Catholicism. Many chose to emigrate and leave Spain, their ancestral land forever. The hardships faced upon leaving Spain were horrific for the Spanish Jews. Paris vividly describes the following: Although some Jews "traveled by donkey," the Jews of Spain, for the most part, literally walked out of their country. These refugees were the "scholars, the sons and daughters of families who had served their monarchs . . . shoemakers, tanners, butchers, the old, the pregnant, [and] the young."

Now, a divorced mother and her two daughters from the United States go to Mexico for a summer vacation and stumble upon an ancient box that transforms their lives and could change the world. Set in the sultry and mysterious jungles of Mexico, with a backdrop of Mayan calendar, pyramids, Maya prophecies(calendario Maya, pirámides y profecías), the story revolves around several interesting characters who are after the same thing-each for a different reason. What happened to the ancient native civilizations of Mexico and Central America, which disappeared without a trace? The Mayan and Aztec cultures left important archaeological sites in Middle America before their civilizations vanished from this earth. While various theories attempt to explain these phenomena, nothing definitive has been proven, yet. Hayman's The Cult of the Jaguar, deals with this fascinating mystery and offers an intriguing and plausible answer to the question, "What really happened to the Aztecs and the Mayans, and the Cult of the Jaguar?"

Esperanza: A Latina story. Sandra C. López. ISBN: 978-0-9796457-8-5. $24.95.
Fourteen-year old Esperanza Ignacio could only think of a few words to sum up her life: crap, man, crap! She was born into a poor Latino family living in a small crummy apartment in the barrio side of town, where the graffiti chiseled more the souls and character of the residents than it impacted the exterior looks of the buildings or anything else. Her father was a drunkard, gambler, and wife-beater who, one cold night, got arrested after a violent intrusion. Her entire circle of relatives consisted of nothing but formers—former drug-addicts, former gangsters and gang-bangers, former alcoholics, former everything. Yep, her life was nothing but a huge load of crap. And she hadn't even started high school yet. After surviving a scorching summer heat, Esperanza enters the unfamiliar world of high-school with a tight knot in her stomach. On the very first day, she is sucked into a blunder of catastrophic events beginning with accidentally running into the world's BIGGEST bully. And it definitely wasn't an understatement either. Now, she has made herself the prime target for a main course. And, to top it all off, she has to see this girl everyday in P.E.! P.E.—the one class Esperanza truly despises the most. Could life be any worse for her?

Island of Dreams. Jasminne Méndez. ISBN 978-1493580880. $13.95.
"My family has been forced to live like an island with no political party, president, or official language. We are not of any "new world" Columbus discovered. We are not Dominican enough or American enough to call either place home. We live and love with one foot on the ground and one foot in the sea."
This is how Jasminne Méndez describes what it was like for her to grow up a Dominican American military brat. Always feeling like a foreigner in both lands because people want to know "where you from," and "how do you know Spanish?" In "Island of Dreams," author Jasminne Méndez, addresses these questions and their complicated answers in a multi-genre memoir that effortlessly blends poems and short stories to offer a glimpse into the challenges, joys, hopes, fears and disappointments she and her family faced being Dominican in America. Her work explores everything from the love/hate relationship she had with her hair and her mother, to the many memorable but sometimes unpleasant family vacations and holidays she shared with her parents, siblings, primos, tíos, y tías. These captivating stories and poems are about family, food, love, culture, self-discovery, assimilation, and the American dream. They are about a young girl who respects the richness and abundance of her cultural history, but who struggles to form her own identity because her Dominican values conflict with her American self and all she wants to do is find a place to call home.
La Picardía Chicana: Latino Folk Humor. Folklore Latino Jocoso. José R. Reyna. Edited by Andrea Alessandra Cabello, M. D., with the Assistance of Gloria Canales. ISBN: 0-915745-42-9. $23.95.
Mexican American, Chicano folk literature has been of interest to folklorists and been collected incidentally, mostly as part of compilations of the longer and more prestigious standard folktale. José Reyna began his collection of jokes 1969, and some of the jokes compiled then, appeared in Stanley L. Robe's Antología del Saber Popular [1971]. Picardía Chicana, the result of thirty years of work, contains five hundred twenty-six jokes which are reproduced here verbatim from tape recordings collected in the field. Some jokes were collected by the author as field research projects at Texas A & M University-Kingsville [1972-77] and at the University of New Mexico [1977-1984]. Others are synopses of jokes that Dr. Reyna learned over the years and took the liberty of translating to English for presentation here. Other terms used for this subject are Latino folklore. Latino jokes. Latino folk humor. Folklore Latino. Folclor latino. Mexican American Folk humor.
This book represents the best of Mexican American joke tradition. The title Picardía Chicana was selected in keeping with a well-known sixteenth-century Hispanic tradition of El Lazarillo de Tormes published originally in 1554, which spawned a new literary genre—la novela picaresca. Both the pícaro and the novela picaresca would surface in the New World—in Mexico—in the early nineteenth century (José Joaquín Fernández de Lizardi, El Periquillo Sarniento).

Maravilla. Fuego, Laura del. ISBN: 0915745151. $22.95.

This is a publication of Floricanto Press. "Saying goodbye to childhood is never easy." The magical day, when a girl can play out her own fairytale fantasy and be a princess for a day, is her Quinceañera, and for Mimi that day has finally arrived. But instead of the excitement and jubilation she is expected to feel, all she can summon is uneasy dread and anxiety about what this day means. Her parents have been planning this event her whole life and Mimi is filled with the weight of their expectations, to act like a proper lady and know what to do. She doesn't know what to do and can't comprehend how an archaic ceremony can change the way people see her, and how she could be a woman just because the calendar marks her a day older. Mimi doesn't want people to treat her differently and no amount of rehearsing can mask the insecurities she feels. To make matters worse her cousin, Lala, picks the day of Mimi's Quinceañera to reveal she is pregnant, and it's only been a year after her very own Quinceañera. Mimi is distraught and believes that is what happens when parents, family, and society, rush a girl into womanhood. This is all the more reason for Mimi not to accept the tradition of publically becoming a woman.

Oro, Incienso y Mirra. Ariel González Calzada. ISBN: 978-1-888205-40-4. $9.50.
Cuando le dije a mi esposa que "Oro, Incienso y Mirra" era un libro tanto para niños como para aquellos chiquillos de antaño que ahora son viejos ella sonrió dejándome desconcertado. He aquí el por qué de mi confusión: José, Patricia, y Pablo son tres niños que, como tantos en el mundo, sufren las consecuencias de una sociedad desigual. Sumergidos en sus universos de contradicciones ven por primera vez un árbol de navidad. Les pareció mágico.
Siguiendo su rastro conocen a Rocío del Valle, una anciana que, medio siglo atrás, había sido una actriz famosa, sin embargo, ahora estaba abandonada. Junto a ella descubren a un Dios que, a pesar de estar prohibido, los ama. Aprenden que trabajar por amor es mejor que por dinero; y que, aunque no tengan nada, son tan importantes y únicos como aquellos que lo tienen todo ¡Un momento! Pensándolo mejor, ya entiendo para quienes escribí este libro: para los viejos que, víctimas de la sociedad, no pudieron ser niños, y para los niños que, por el mismo motivo, nunca llegaran a ser viejos.
Por la Calle North Claremont: Beto Stories. By Adolfo Butch Cárdenas. Yasmeen Namazie and Genevieve Miller, Editors. ISBN: 978-1481182911. $22.95.
In a world of literacy education where Hispanic literature is still a rarity, Por la Calle North Claremont: Beto Stories are a gem in that it will provide students with the confidence to see the importance of their own childhood experiences. Students can read this book knowing that Hispanic literature does not have to portray children in worlds of poverty with barrios full of unloving parents, racial turmoil, rampant crime, dog-eat-dog politics, and other hopeless situations. The author provides children with the hope of living a life with the same good natured character Beto encourages, and he also gives voice to those of us who grew up in happy homes, with loving parents and good friends. Of course, the book is true to reality in that Beto does experience the usual turmoil many children face such as not always getting everything he wants, stressful school relations, family disputes and corporal punishment. Yet, Beto ends up okay with the help of those who at times drive him crazy, yet love him always—his friends and family. The book's ending will also leave students wondering what happens next to Beto as he grows into a fine young man, always honest, loyal, responsible, and fun-loving.

Se preguntaban si un grupo de niños de habla hispana de las tierras agrícolas de la provincia al oeste pudiera llevarse bien en el nuevo lugar.

Taking a little recess!
Hey Everybody, Angie and I have been running ourselves ragged this winter trying to keep up with life AND blogging and we decided that since we both had a life event this month that we are going to take a little break from blogging on this website in order to concentrate on our families and get settled in to the changes. We're not stopping, it's just a pause. Stay tuned as we are scheduled to pick it back up on April 5th! See you soon! ~Sarah

Site Share management service with virtual project management team
The client had major challenges with its portfolio of programmes and needed a partner to;
- Provide an experienced Site Share project management team
- Manage all incoming and outgoing Site Share applications
- Improve the perception of the clients Site Share offering
WHP made a proposal to manage all Site Share applications as an end to end managed service from within the client's office with a virtual project management team. The aim was to provide a fully managed service and improve the overall Site Share experience; encouraging more Site Share applications from other Mobile Network Operators.
The team was integrated into the client's own team. This allowed us to manage the workload of both incoming and outgoing Site Share applications more effectively and efficiently, working alongside the client's existing network roll out team. This also freed up client resources and enabled the client to utilise their own project management resource on other projects.
Within an 18 month period, the team managed over 400 successful Site Share applications through acquisition, design and build.
- Successfully integrated virtual project management team
- Introduction of a more effective and efficient Site Share management process
- Over 400 successful Site Share applications
- Improved perception of client Site Share service
- Improved Site Share service resulting in an increased number of Site Share applications
- Freed up client resources for other projects
- Forged lasting positive relationships to the benefit of the client

Russ Spiegel Jazz Quartet
guitarist Russ Spiegel and ensemble
Jazz guitarist, composer and arranger, Russ Spiegel is also a leader of several guitar-based ensembles. His quartet features himself on guitar, plus bass, drums, and either keyboards or sax/flute. Russ has also established himself as an in-demand musician touring Europe and the U.S. with various ensembles, performing at well-known jazz festivals, and appearing on numerous television and radio shows. He is also a commissioned composer who has written music for film and musicals, and has spent the last four years working as the on-set music instructor for the hit Nickelodeon TV show, "The Naked Brothers Band."
About Russ Spiegel:
Born and raised in California, Russ moved to Europe as a teenager. Then, after a stint studying at the Berklee College of Music in Boston he returned to Europe where he performed and toured for a number of years. He returned to the US in 2001, settling in New York City where his music career continued to flourish. Most recently, he has been busy performing with various groups in support of his numerous CDs. His most ambitious project, The Russ Spiegel Jazz Orchestra, is a 17-piece ensemble featuring Russ's compositions and arrangements that explore a groovier/funkier approach; the project has recently released its first CD, "Transplants," which is receiving wide airplay. Meanwhile, Russ continues his work with Nickelodeon, and is writing musical scores for several upcoming independent films.

Overall i enjoyed it, i might buy it again but i would love to know what it is supposed to be.
Happy Birthday Erica!

New Hookah
headhunter replied to thatoneguy's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah Loversreally getting a QT would be much better if you need a portable hookah, as i said in the review its and okay hookah, but looking back to when i had it 9/10 the smoke was rather hot. You also have the problem that to change the battery in the light it a pain in the arise like no other, damn near impossible. Another note is that the glass that makes up the actual "Base" is of very poor quality and cracks with no problem. Finally cleaning it is one of the hardest things i found with it, just always seemed like i always missed something. Anyway if i were you i would go with a QT as you can also use different bowls with it and hoses, and even if you wanted to bases. The leila on the other hand can do none of that. just my :twocents:

Wow, thanks guys really. I know i haven't been around lately but reading all of these actually really helped.

But really thank you all, on a brighter note things have been looking up, iv been doing better and my mood has improved overall (i have even been able to pick up the guitar and play now as before i couldn't even do that) so things are looking up. Again i cant thank you guys enough, Thank you all.
Sneak Peek
headhunter replied to Chreees's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah LoversYayy chris!!! thats awesome man gratz on finally getting it!!! :yahoo: But deff need pic's and if you do just say the world i would love to see it over TC.
headhunter posted a topic in Serious Discussion ForumHey guys so i just need to get some things off of my chest right now.....the past month almost has been a living hell, im going to a Junior college, taking 17 credit hours (the normal is around 12 im one away from the cap) and trying to focus on school. All the while im being yelled at by my parents to do more, to help more, to stop being the apparent deadbeat son i am (even when i say that around them they just shrug their shoulders). On top of that last weekend on my way home, i stopped at a truck that had taken a corner to fast and slid, flipped over and smashed its roof. The driver was someone from my graduating class in HS, the passenger was a girl by the name of Alyssa, who was still in high school a junior to be exact. When i pulled up the driver was out and running around freaking out about Alyssa, i was the second caller into 911 to report it. The first responder (a County Cop) told us to leave because we didn't see the accident happen. Lo and Behold when i wake up the next morning i find out that this girl who was still in HS died, and whats worse i knew her to some extent, it just didnt click. On top of all this a week ago, a girl i care about managed to get cut on her chest by one of my "Best Friends" one deep enough to need 66 Stitches, it was less than a cm away from puncturing her chest cavity and lung, whats worse is that this girl i care about is utterly in love with this guy, even through him doing that....so im stuck being the person keeping watch, because it was an accident to a point....so much crap has happened to me in the past month that i cant really even process it all right now, im totally lost on so many issues, my grades are suffering, and i can barely get myself out of bed in the morning. Right now the only thing keeping me going is the fact that i have to watch over that girl......that and this weekend i am seeing my all time favorite band in Chicago. Right now, im down and nothing is really helping.....im sorry iv dumped all this on you guys but really my rents refuse to talk to me about any of it and my friends really dont comprehend what im saying and going through...

headhunter replied to Stuie's topic in Discussion Group for all Hookah Loversi actually kinda like it, the bowl design seems like it would make heat management easier, and perhaps its more suited for the traditional style Mu'assel, as i saw somewhere that shallow bowls are suited better for the drier types, but i could be making things up again. Either way cool design, my :twocents:

SOLCOM has been awarded the "Fair Company" Seal of Approval
Fair Company is an initiative of the journal "Junge Karriere". It awards the "Fair Company" seal of approval to those companies that undertake to adhere to guidelines for the fair treatment of university graduates. This means that no trainees are employed in full-time posts and no attempt is made to attract trainees with vague hopes of permanent employment. An adequate allowance is, morever, obligatory.
Fair Companies
do not fill full-time positions with substitutes such as trainees, would-be volunteers and guest students
The Berlin Employment Tribunal established as early as 2003 that a regular working relationship entails the provision of a service, as opposed to an internship, where the acquisition of practical skills and experiences is in the forefront. In Fair Companies trainees are not just cheap staff. They take on jobs and are integrated in a project, but they do not replace fully-fledged employees. Voluntary and trainee programmes are programmes for those at the threshold of their career for whom there is an training curriculum. Those taking up these posts in Fair Companies are paid a living wage.
do not promise a training programme to university graduates who have applied for a permanent post
To be quite clear: the argument that applicants first have to prove themselves in an internship does not exist in Fair Companies. The trial period functions to give companies and new employees a chance to get to know each other, something that also has its place in Fair Companies.
do not lure trainees with the vague prospect of a full-time position to follow
This rule relates directly to the last. An internship must not be a carrot held out for those at the start of their career. In Fair Companies existing training is not prolonged with the story that this is the way to a permanent position.
primarily offer internships for a professional orientation during the training phase
Internships should ideally be completed before or during studies. Fair Companies provide the conditions for bachelor students to get the chance to experience working life at an early stage. In Fair Companies a university degree is not a precondition for an internship. Graduates who apply for an internship of their own accord may take on an internship in Fair Companies too. Internships between completed bachelor studies and an intended masters obviously pose no problems. This also applies to students in a masters course, or in a second degree or postgraduate course.
pay trainees a reasonable allowance
What salary is appropriate depends on several factors. The duration of the internship plays a role, as do the previous knowledge of the trainee and the area of work. The recommendation to Fair Companies is to gear payment for internships lasting several months to the official student maintenance allowance rate, which since October 2008 has amounted to 648 euros. Fair Companies should pay at least 300 euros a month for an internship, with the exception of short tasters, and pupil and preparatory internships.

Forgot to mention the Moon, which is a major Timing trigger. For instance, on 8 November, Nessus was within one Arcminute and six days of its 14 November Full-Moon Station, and OR10 was within one Arcminute and eleven days from its 19 November Station – so their Influence would have been pretty strong anyway. But on 8 November the Moon crossed them, and then on 9 November the Moon crossed Neptune-South Node, when Neptune was two Arcminutes and ten days from its 19 November Station.
It's very possible that this was the peak of their Station Energies for many of us. Then on 14-15 November, at the Full Moon, the Moon Squared Nessus, OR10, Neptune, Orcus and the Nodes. Meanwhile, the Neptune-South Node Quintile Yod (Pay Attention to Learning This!) was in full force. This could easily have been the peak, or another peak, of these Energies.
At around 4am PST this morning (19 November), the Moon crossed the Vesta corner of the base of the Neptune-South Node Quintile Yod – another opportunity for a climax. On 21 November, between around 6am and 5pm PST, the Moon Opposes Nessus-OR10 and then crosses the North Node, Orcus, and Karma, while Opposing Neptune-South Node – an excellent time for an aftershock.
The Moon moves about twelve Degrees a day, give or take a few Degrees (its orbit isn't round). The Sun, Mercury, and Venus move about one Degree a day, and they could also serve as triggers for longer-wavelength astroevents.
