Come dressed as your favorite "Soup-er" Hero and enjoy some chili, ice cold beverages, games and music! Doors open at 11am, $5 to enter and must be 21 to attend. If you are interested in entering a team contact Melissa @ Golden Eagle.
Chili Cook-off -- This event is sponsored by Golden Eagle and we supply the manpower to serve the beer. The cook-off takes place from noon - 6 pm on a Saturday, usually in the latter half of February. Teams set up booths where they serve samples of chili and are judged for prizes. There are various contests that go on through the day. We are solely responsible for serving the beer and we make money off this event, but also donate back part of our money to the charity the Golden Eagle designates. There is minimal work involved for the chairman and co-chair prior to the event, which involves getting a liquor license and insurance. There is a lot of manpower needed to set up the night before, serve during the event, and tear down the day after.

With anticipation building for the release of Avengers-2 and Thanos making his first appearance on the big screen, this is the big Marvel event that you've all been waiting for. With a story that is certainly cashing in on the success of the Avenger's movies, you will be paying an extra dollar or the equivalent of it; but you won't mind as this is basically 3 comics (or more) rolled into one; and with a story of this magnitude that extra cost will be wiped from your memory as soon as you get involved in the captivating plot.
INFINITY is broken down into chapters which I will discuss with you now. The first part of the comic titled "the tribute" is just that, its purpose being to show you how powerful Thanos -and his armies- really is. The horrific genetically engineered parasite-assassins, a new breed of alien called the "Outriders" act as servants for the almighty Thanos, doing his bidding without question as they have been programmed to do. A nasty intergalactic warrior named Corvus Glaive is "the destroyer's" first lieutenant, and proves that they are not messing around by defeating the champion of a rival alien-race on Ahl-Agullo before returning to Titan with a disturbing "tribute" for their master. The outrider who is carrying out his given task has gone to Earth in search of the next tribute, of which we can only guess at this stage in the game. "Constructing apocalypse", is all about the beginning of the end of the planet Galador, 60,000 light-years away. And then we have "Orbital" which is a brief look at Captain America and Hawkeye who have been called upon to detain some Skrulls-a pivotal part of the story which is clearly going to lead to much bigger events-. "What was hidden, now uncovered" takes you to Attilan; home of the Inhumans. An Outrider is infiltrating Attilan looking for information, and gathering secrets from Black-Bolt as he sleeps. "Outbound" basically sums up this first part to the sci-fi epic, Marvel event! Bringing us right back round to Thanos himself, and he has his eye on a much bigger prize (he is clearly not satisfied with bringing on the extinction of just one race in a day…).
Jonathan Hickman was the best choice to take the reigns; with his intricate style of writing which pays homage to the villain who is on everyone's lips he opens this event with a BANG! It is an introduction of all things Marvel into a plot that revolves solely around Thanos; the suspense is built up progressively through this extra-long issue and the combination of a complex script and fresh art-work make for timing very similar to that of a George Lucas movie. Black-Bolt and the Inhumans are made to fit snugly into the plot-line as are the Avengers and the Illuminati. Art by Jim Cheung sets the dark tone of the future-is-doomed story in a way unlike that of the dull and gloom of the recent Age of Ultron saga; the colours make it clear to us that there is certainly something to fear but at the same time there is something new and exciting to read about as well (This is not your run of the mill apocalyptic-comic)! The cover art is particularly appealing as it relates to the contents of the comic on a cosmic level! Quite simply voicing the fact that this is 1. A MAJOR MARVEL EVENT. 2. A SCI-FI EPIC TO REMEMBER. And; 3.Yeah you guessed it… THANOS THE DESTROYER'S 'TIME TO SHINE!' The SFX and lettering is bold and colourful and help this event to stand out above all others in the Marvel universe at present and it is a journey that I for one am eager to embark upon.

Boy With Terminal Cancer Receives 40,000 Christmas Cards From Across Globe
Simple plea from family turns into a global display of Christmas spirit
Parents of an eight-year-old boy with terminal brain cancer turned a simple plea into a global display of Christmas spirit that warmed the hearts of many across the world.
Drake Quibodeaux has received over 40,000 cards from all corners of the globe wishing him a Merry Christmas.
The response to the family has been so overwhelming that their kitchen is full to the brim with piles of envelopes and packages, and they are still receiving more cards.
Many packages contain toys, books, and notes wishing Drake and his family well during a hard time.
Drake was recently diagnosed with Difuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma, an aggressive tumor located at the base of the brain.
Sadly, just 5 percent of children with such tumor survive years following diagnoses.
'At the start, they give you nine to 12 months,' Danielle Quibodeaux, Drake's mother, told WTHR.
Drake was diagnosed with cancer nine months ago.
A friend of the family wrote a post on Facebook asking people to 'flood' Drake's mailbox with Christmas cards.
The family was not prepared for the responses as thousands of letters and packages began to flood in.
'It's not about presents; it's not about nothing,' Quibodeaux said.
'It's about letting him know the community loves him and they're behind him.'
Drakes goal was to get 190 cards, but within days he had thousands.
'We tape them to our front door,' Quibodeaux said.
'He just looks at them and says, "They love me so much, mama." I'm like, "Yes baby."'
The family also received letters from schools and even had visits from people who decorated their house.
Amongst those visiting Drake were soldiers, police officers, and Santa Claus.
Louisiana Lt Governor Billy Nungesser sent a letter naming Drake a true 'Louisiana Ambassador.'
'We're blown away with the support,' Quibodeaux said.
'People will come up to me, and they're like "Thank you for letting us take part in this."'
'I'm like, "I should be thanking you,"' she continued.
'I don't know why they're thanking me, because it should be the other way around. But we're blown away.'

Algeria and Valencia winger Sofiane Feghouli has said that his national side has no reason to be over-awed by a strong Belgium team.
Belgium and Algeria will face-off in a World Cup 2014 Group H match on Tuesday, June 17.
The Red Devils have been highly rated by various commentators and analyst this World Cup, as Belgium currently have a "golden generation" of players across all areas of the pitch. Indeed, the likes of Thibaut Courtois, Eden Hazard, Vincent Kompany, and Romelu Lukaku are playing for top sides across Europe.
But Feghouli sees no reason to fear the Belgiums.
"We do not fear anyone or anything in particular among the Belgians," said Feghouli.
"Many of us play in the top European leagues; we are accustomed to facing top players. It is true that we have collectively never faced such a strong team, but in a game, everything is possible."
"And as Belgium is the favorite team in the group, it will have a lot of pressure, and we, the least experienced of the group, will try to create a surprise."
Feghouli also said: "I think our strengths against Belgians will be solidarity and collectiveness. If each one thinks of himself only, we will perish against a great team like Belgium!"
"We need to show solidarity and give everything for each other, as we did in qualifiers in Africa."
Here is an Associated Press article on Algeria coach Vahid Halilhodzic's take on Belgium.
Algeria Coach: Belgium Defenders Not All Ferraris
BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil (AP) — Turning down the hype on Belgium as the clear favorite in Group H, Algeria's coach risked insulting his opponents Monday by saying they're not all "Ferraris."
Belgium captain and center back Vincent Kompany may have something to say about Algeria coach Vahid Halilhodzic's assessment, made on the eve of Tuesday's match at Mineriao Stadium in Belo Horizonte.
"With the Belgian defense, they are not all Ferraris either, you know," Halilhodzic said, going on to refer to some of the players as being more like a cheaper, slower brand of car. "Belgium does have a certain weakness here."
Before Halilhodzic's comments, Kompany had some praise for Algeria.
"They have a good team," he said. "They are dangerous offensively, that is true. But we have strong organization. It will be like a chess match."
Algeria's disciplinarian coach acknowledged that his players must suffer on the pitch if they have any chance of repeating the north African country's famous 1982 upset of West Germany.
But Halilhodzic is letting his players relax in the final hours before the match.
"This is a very touchy phase in the preparation," Halilhodzic said. "I think you have to be positive. In a certain phase, you must be tough and hard.
"If you want a positive reaction, you have to poke them a bit," he added. "If you poke the Algerian players, they explode. They get positive energy."
Algeria faces what some are calling Belgium's best-ever team.
"If we succeed, it will be one of the greatest wins in Algerian history," Halilhodzic said. "It could be compared to the match against Germany more than 30 years ago."
Algeria famously beat West Germany in its first 1982 World Cup group match, but has never advanced past the group stage. Halilhodzic said Algeria has studied every aspect of Belgium's team, analyzing video after video in recent days.
Halilhodzic said his players mustn't let their guard down during the match or they will be punished.
"If we do not suffer, there's no hope," Halilhodzic said. "If some people just walk around the pitch without running, that's a problem. If they don't perform at a tournament like the World Cup, it's the worst thing they can do for themselves."
Halilhodzic has had a testy relationship with Algeria's media of late, because they feel he has experimented too much with the squad and tested two sets of players.
"I think I am the most criticized person in all of Algeria, even after we qualified for this World Cup," he said. "They have even insulted my family. This is not something I can tolerate."
No one is sure what his starting lineup will be and he refused to budge at Monday's news conference.
Algeria has a very young and inexperienced team. But fledgling stars in the making, including central midfielder Sofiane Feghouli, who has a sharp first touch and excellent passing skills, and striker Islam Slimani may just be able to produce an upset.
"We have 90 minutes on the pitch," Halilhodzic said. "We'll see what happens then. Belgium is the favorite. But favorites don't always win."

Your step by step guide to getting started with Football Index
Welcome to Football Index.
You're probably now wondering what to do? You've Googled "getting started" and you've landed here?
Well, read through this as it covers the basics of getting started on Football Index.
Q) What's the first thing I should do?
First things first. Familiarise yourself with the Football Index academy website. It covers a lot but we've put it into bite sized chunks below.
We recommend following the #footballindex hashtag on Twitter as well as joining IndexGain Slack community (over 4000 traders) by clicking on the link at the top. Here's a sneak preview of why football index traders should join IndexGain.
Start off by just listening to the stuff people talk about and what insights, ideas people bring to the table.
The best form of investment is in yourself – so educate yourself first.
One other thing is for sure – DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH!!! Never take a tip on a social site as trading or investment advice. Make sure you know what you're buying into.
Q) How much do I really need to deposit to get started?
There's no hard and fast rule but we do know that once you start enjoying Football Index, you will soon realise that £100 isn't enough.
Start off small till you fully understand how it all works before going big.
And remember, only deposit what you can afford to lose – gamble responsibly. Please.
Q) What leagues or competitions count for Football Index?
Currently, the top 5 leagues in Europe, 2 European club competitions and Euro 2020 are eligible on Football Index. It is from these competitions, you can win match day dividends or payouts as some know it as.
Q) How do you make money on Football Index?
There's 3 ways to make money on the index.
1) Capital appreciation where the price goes up if a player is about to move clubs or is on a great run of form and demand increases.
2) Media coverage (media buzz or rankings) which earns the player points based on media coverage for transfer rumours or news from the previous match performance. The more media mentions a player gets, the more points he racks up and at the end of the day (midnight) if he is top, then he wins you dividends (payouts).
That payout is called "Dividends". More on that in the next question.
3) Performance on the pitch (performance buzz) which earns the player performance points. A player gets points for things like passes, crosses, tackles, saves, blocks, shots, goals etc etc. See table below. The more points he racks up during a game, the more likely that player is to win some dividends. A bit like how bonus points work in fantasy football.
The top player in each position (GK/DEF, MID, FWD) at the end of each match day wins you money, also known as dividends. And the player with the most points on that match day gets you a bonus on top (also known as Star Man).
The above screenshot shows you who has won what for the previous matchday. Each of these players earns you some money. See next question for dividend payouts.
Q) Dividends? How much could I win?
There are 3 types of dividends on offer.
Match day = based on matches per day.
Media = based on news stories.
In-Play = based on goals, assists and clean sheets for GK's.
Match day dividend payouts are dependant on how many matches are taking place that day. See table below.
So if there's 18 games being played (like a Saturday) then it is classed as GOLD day and the top GK/DEF, MID and FWD will earn you 8p per future/share.
The highest points scorer on the day earns you an extra 8p per future/share – total of 16p per future/share.
If it's Silver day then there's between 5 and 14 games taking place and 4p per share on offer for the top position and a further 4p per share for the highest points scorer (star man).
As a bonus, when it's the quarter finals, semis and the finals of European club competitions, it's classed as GOLD match day – which means less competition for gold day dividends.
NOTE: If there's no club games on (like international breaks) then we get what's called "treble media" days. This is payouts for 1st, 2nd and 3rd placed players in the media table.
Q) So, where do these match day dividend payouts go?
They get added to your cash balance. So you could decide to buy more of someone or withdraw it to use to buy a packet of crisp or put it on a holiday deposit – depends on how much you invest obviously.
Q) What's this deadline thing people talk about?
In order to win match day dividends, you need to have bought the player before 3pm on that day. For example, if you buy Messi at 1pm and he wins top forward that match day, then you win some money.
If you bought him at 5pm and he wins top forward that day then you don't win anything as you bought him after 3pm deadline.
Same goes for media dividends – you must have bought that player before 3pm to be eligible for winning dividends.
Q) I've seen this "goals, assists and clean sheets dividends" or "IPD"….what's that all about?
So this method of winning dividends is new and it a cool way of betting on in-play actions.
It's called In-Play Dividends. Or IPD as you might see referred to at times.
Basically, you get dividends if a player scores, assists or keeps a clean sheet and this is how the payout structure works:
But there's some things you need to know.
These dividends only count for the first 30 days a share is owned. After the 30 days you can choose to sell up & re-buy to qualify for the next 30 days OR just keep the player and continue with hoping he wins PB. You could sell in-between and recycle those shares also but it can get rather complicated if you are just starting out.
A good way of finding our your expiry date is to google "30 days from today". The date shown is when your shares will not count for IPD's.
You can buy any player who plays in any of the PB competitions as above after the performance buzz dividend 2pm deadline – so for example, Messi scores a hat trick at 8pm and you can choose to buy him at 10pm after the game to qualify for the in-play dividends and get a payout for his 3 goals.
But you need to be holding the player at 12am though on the day he scored. Don't sell up before that time, but be sure to sell quickly after as many others have noted to do.
You need to also factor in the cost of selling here (2% commission) vs the gains achieved in the 30 day window. Many traders continue to play for match day dividends and see the above dividends as a bonus. Some traders actively trade for the in-play dividends.
Q) So when are they paid out?
In-Play dividends are paid daily at the same time as all the other dividends – usually between 12.05am and 12.30am.
Dividends are credited as cash and added to the dividends figure on the Football Index website or mobile app.
Q) How do I sell a player?
This is the hardest bit of Football Index. Selling.
There's 2 ways to sell a player. 1) Join queue of sellers selling the same player 2) Instant sell to FI
Joining the queue means that you need to wait (sometimes ages) to sell a player, essentially you are selling your player to someone else at the current buy price and you need to join the queue of sellers – until someone else is looking to buy that player, he ain't going anywhere. Meanwhile his price may continue to drop so keep watch.
You could be in a queue of 30 or 30,000. You'll never know.
Or you could instant sell right now for a cut/reduced price (sell price shown). Sometimes that price is around 3-8% lower than the buy price (the price you would sell at if you joined the queue as above).
The difference is known as the spread.
Q) What is the Spread?
Something you will need to probably understand in more detail when it comes to selling.
If you were to instant sell Maddison then you would be selling him for £1.40 (as per example below).
If you were to join the queue then you could sell him at £5.32 which is the buy price – the difference between the two prices is called the spread (either sell at £5.16 right now or wait and sell at £5.32 or whatever the buy price is when the transaction goes through).
In the example above, if we were to instant sell right now for £1.40 then we'd lose the spread percentage. You'd just pay 2% commission on your sale value.
Sometimes, it's best to sell at the buy price (queue sell) to save on the 2-4% spread percentage – you want to try and keep as much money to yourself.
Most of the time, spreads are around 3% but they can be as high a 6% on IPO's or players being sold at high speeds – to try and stop people to selling down immediately.
Remember to also factor in the 2% commission you'll pay on the total value of the sale.
Q) What's this 'commission' thing?
When you sell a player, Football Index will take 2% of the total value of the sale. So for example, if you sold £30 of Neymar, you will need to pay 2% of that £30 as commission.
This needs to be factored into the maths when selling – you need to know what the total % gain/loss is in order to break even somewhere else.
Q) Why is a players price falling?
Lack of form?
Signed a new contract so won't any be transfer rumours?
Rotated player?
Traders just getting bored?
Tough fixtures coming up?
Traders adjusting portfolios as we approach summer?
Do your own research and come to a conclusion – if you have different views, then see this as an opportunity to top up or buy.
Q) Why is a players price rising?
Maybe he's stated that he wants to leave the club – which in turn means more media mentions – which in turn means more likelihood of media dividends.
Maybe he's on a great run of form and he's won performance buzz a couple of times.
Maybe he was awesome for PB last season so traders think he'll do the same again next season?
Again, do your own research.
Q) What are those turquoise lines on players charts?
They represent the highs and lows of a players price for that day/date.
The bigger the line, the higher the volatility that day. Maybe the player scored a hat trick or maybe he did something worthy of lots of media attention. Like Pogba getting a new haircut or something. It's up to you to research and find out.
Q) Ok, got that. Now what?
Join IndexGain and join over 4000 traders and share your questions or portfolio in there to get some feedback.

Roving NEF reporter Malcolm Smitherman, a Miami University junior computer engineering major with a minor in physics and a member of the Lockheed Martin Leadership Institute talked to Louise Morman a former senior management executive in the energy sector, a systems analyst and expert in leadership and transformational learning, who leads the Lockheed Martin Leadership Institute, an intensive three-year transformational leadership development program for engineering and computing students. Here's their conversation.
Q. How do you describe digital transformation?
Digital transformation is strategically changing all areas of your business, how you operate and deliver value to your customers, with the help of digital technology. That change requires an accompanying culture change.
There is no question that major changes will occur when our current college students are in the height of their careers. I cannot predict exactly what the developments will be in artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotics, 3D printing, cloud computing, and other digital innovations, but I am sure that we will see dramatic impacts. I believe there will be end-to-end transformation in how organizations do business in most industries.
The work world will change in ways we haven't seen in the past and well beyond hourly workers. All kinds of occupations will see change including engineers, accountants, coders, surgeons, etc. Computers are very effective at handling logical and process-oriented activities. The work of knowledge workers and college graduates will be replaced so people will have to constantly reinvent themselves and deal with a never-ending change journey throughout their careers.
However, when we started, I didn't really think of the work of engineers being replaced by non-humans. Now I realize that resiliency is essential for survival in their future work world.
Q. Today there exist many advanced digital technologies that have yet to be utilized in the work space. If using them were to mean greater efficiency for a business, why do you think businesses haven't taken advantage of them?
Digital transformation is a hot topic and it is definitely on the minds of CEOs who are planning for a successful future. But many initiatives stall. Technology is the easy part. How people deal with change is a bigger stumbling block. Digitizing scattered elements of the business is not that effective. To thrive in the digital era, a systems thinking approach is needed and that means rethinking the overall business, with a customer-driven emphasis. Culture change is hard.
Q. Considering your high-level business executive experience and your last seven years in higher education working with future engineers and computer scientists, what do you think are the major mindset gaps? What leadership areas need more emphasis in undergraduate education to prepare for the digital era?
After absorbing thoughts from dozens of books, papers and reports on the topic of digital transformation, I came up with the following list:
Internal Courage/Strength – Being your best evolved self
- Self awareness
- Open mindedness and inclusion
- Humility – keeps us in touch with all we don't know
- Embodying our humanity
- Overcoming fear of conflict and risk
Embracing Change – Adaptability
- Comfort in uncertainty and unstructured environments
- Navigating through complexity, chaos and confusion
- Resiliency – especially when the change isn't our idea
- Growth mindset
- Curiosity and reinventing ourselves
- Learning from failure
Strategic Thinker – Holistic
- Big Picture
- Systems thinking
- Customer obsessed
- Forward thinker
- Creative Thinker
- Transformative vision
- Ideas based on intuition and insights as well as data and history
- Openness to new ideas and possibilities
Collaborative Spirit
- Collaborative problem solving
- Emotional Intelligence
- Heart
Q. How will your research into digital transformation change what you do in the Lockheed Martin Leadership Institute?
Working with people while they are in college to help them become comfortable with ambiguity and change was something we considered important when we created the program over seven years ago. Our goal was to help our technical students become more successful throughout their careers and lives. We emphasized self-awareness, people leadership and strategic thinking. However, when we started, I didn't really think of the work of engineers being replaced by non-humans. Now I realize that resiliency is essential for survival in their future work world.
Also, we need to do more work in "unlearning." Today's students have been conditioned since kindergarten to have clear expectations of what is expected of them. Unfortunately, the future does not have a syllabus with exactly how many points you need to get an A. Giving our students practice in the messiness of the real world will help prepare them to navigate the future.

I get very frustrated when dancers say that they have been diagnosed with "Shin Splints." Shin splints is an overarching term that actually covers at least three completely different injuries. So, if you do get diagnosed with this, please ask the practitioner for more information. Normally it will be one of the following conditions:
In this video we go through:
Anterior Compartment Syndrome
Stress Fractures of the Tibia
Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome
If you have had any pain in the shins please don't accept "Shin Splints" as a diagnosis. There are so many reasons why pan in the shins occurs and it's really important that you understand exactly what the injury is, what factors led to it developing, and how to treat it in order to get you back dancing as soon as possible.
If you do have any issues with your shins, we would love to see you in the clinic to work on an effective management strategy. If you are working remotely we really recommend that you look into the Will I Ever Dance Again program which helps you keep condition in the rest of the body while you so the appropriate rehab for the rest of your body.

*Formerly known as the Innovyze Excellence in Computational Hydraulics/Hydrology Award
Dylan Wood's academic career has revolved around the goal of pursuing a highly multidisciplinary skillset as often demanded of researchers in the field of computational hydrology.
In 2014, Dylan earned a B.S. in Physics from Austin Peay State University (APSU), where he also minored in computer science and mathematics. His independent research at APSU included developing software for atomic structure computations and initiating a near-space program for stratospheric observations by high altitude balloon.
Enrolling in a program specialized in computational science, Dylan subsequently began graduate studies at The Ohio State University (OSU) Department of Mathematics in fall of 2014. He was awarded a Master's degree in 2016 for thesis research on time integration of unsteady convection-diffusion problems by implicit-explicit methods. This research was collaborative with Dr. Ethan Kubatko at OSU's Department of Civil, Environmental and Geodetic Engineering, and ultimately led to Dylan joining this department as a Ph.D. student working on research in Dr. Kubatko's lab.
Accordingly, Dylan has pursued a diverse range of coursework at OSU, including work in both pure and applied mathematics, engineering (aerospace, civil, environmental, mechanical – all coursework related to hydrology or fluid dynamics), and computational science. His current research focuses on mitigation of flooding risks posed to coastal areas by tropical cyclones. Specifically, his work develops coupled storm surge/structural fragility models for forecasting of flood defense system failures during storm events.
This award is given annually to recognize a student whose research contributes to the knowledge pool of in the area of Computational Hydraulics & Hydrology. The award selection will be based on original, innovative research of publishable quality and other factors listed below. Both Master's and Ph.D. students are eligible.
The award will consist of a plaque and a cash honorarium of $1,500 for the student and a plaque and cash honorarium of $500 for the major faculty advisor. A $500 travel allotment is provided to the student recipient to attend the American Academy of Environmental Engineers & Scientists (AAEES) Excellence in Environmental Engineering and Science Awards Luncheon. The award selection is administered jointly by a committee consisting of equal numbers of AAEES and AEESP members. The award is co-sponsored by Innovyze, the global leader in smart wet infrastructure modeling and management tools.
Eligible applicants will be judged based on the following criteria:
An applicant remains eligible up to one calendar year following graduation and receipt of the degree earned.

After going over ideas for organizing cookbooks, we're moving on to...
Loose Recipes
I have recipes from magazines, newspapers, emails, newsletters and food packages. I have hand written recipes from relatives, photocopied recipes with handwritten annotations from relatives and homemade cookbooks from relatives. Recipes come to us in all shapes and sizes, and putting them in some kind of order can be daunting.
The little index-card sized recipe boxes are pretty to look at, but require rewriting recipes to fit on the appropriate cards. Definitely too much work. Even if you had a container that held all of these recipes perfectly, then the question is, how to you file them? By ingredient (meat, rice, vegetables, fish)? By course (breakfast, appetizer, dessert)? In this day and age, you could even organize them by chef (Jamie Oliver, Paula Deen), by origin (Martha Stewart Living, Gourmet, The New York Times Magazine), or by audience (vegetarian, vegan, raw). Not to mention family-passed-down recipes. Plus, there's another designation: those tried and true favorites that you practically know by heart, the ones you tried before and worked, but aren't in the regular rotation, and the recipes you want to try one day, when you get around to buying coriander seeds.
I'm beginning to think an entire book could be written on organizing recipes! Let's just say that the ultimate way you organize your recipes is up to you. The important thing is that you create a system through which you can actually find the recipe you are looking for when you need it. Here are some suggestions:
- Toss any recipe that you tried and hated, or will never try. (Less to organize later.)
- Decide how you want to organize your recipes and sort them accordingly. I have mine sorted by broad categories (Meat, Vegan, Dessert, Soups), and then have a couple of sub categories (Cookies, Duck). Of course, many recipes will belong to more than one category, but don't agonize over it. Just put it in the category where you think you'd most likely look for it in a month or two.
- Assess your space and decide on a container. Do you have cookbooks and loose recipes and want to keep them together? In that case, my suggestion is getting a binder or magazine holder that can be filled with clear plastic sleeves and maybe even dividers with labels to hold your recipes. Then the entire thing can be shelved like a book. Do you not have room for the loose recipes on your bookshelf and want something decorative in the kitchen? In that case, you might want to try a recipe box.
- Once the recipes are filed away (with room add more in the future), test the system by looking for a few recipes and seeing if you can find them easily. Have a family member try as well. It would be handy if your kids could find the macaroni and cheese recipe in the pasta section of your recipe binder as easily as you can!

When Dog the Bounty Hunter announced Wednesday that his wife of 12 years had died after her battle with cancer, he failed to mention that she was also habitually using heroin. A toxicology report performed in Colorado revealed the findings this morning.
"Based on the analysis done at the lab, we found strong levels of heroin which are consistent with the track marks found on Chapman's body, which are indicative of a person injecting drugs into their arm," Dr. Hall told a relative of the family we spoke to. "A toxicology report is the result of the lab procedures identifying and quantifying potential toxins, which include prescription medications and drugs of abuse and interpretations of the findings, so it is common for us to discover drug use in celebrities."
While many are surprised about Beth's heroin use, to Dog the Bounty Hunter he is just surprised others didn't know.
Around 1992 Beth dated Dog the Bounty Hunter's high school best friend Keith Barmore, something that Duane wasn't happy about. He says, "Keith was no better as an adult than he was as a punk kid. He was a lying two-bit thief with a heroin addiction. He would drink beer just to even out from the drugs," he wrote in his memoir. "It just about broke my heart when I heard Beth was dating him. When I heard they got married, I got physically sick. There couldn't have been two people in the world who were worse together than Beth and Keith."
Dog the Bounty Hunter continues, "She was high all the time. On the show, off the show. Most people who worked on the show knew, but I don't think many fans did."
Once Beth started using heroin frequently with Keith Barmore, she was in and out of rehab more often than not, another family member tells us. "Beth was so high all the time that she frequently would start falling asleep while driving. She couldn't keep her eyes open. I remember driving with her one time on highway H-201, you know, in O'ahu, and I look over and her eyes are closed! The car was headed right for one of the walls on the side of the road, but I spun the wheel quickly to avoid it. Thank God."

A young man decides that he wants to bring his fantasy of being dominated by two women to life and hires a couple of escorts to act it out. He gets more than he bargained for when two brash and arrogant ladies come into his home and take over. The girls strip, spank and use the man as their sex slave to bring themselves to orgasm before they finally take turns riding his cock and making him come.
This is an explicit erotic short story of approximately 5,000 words. It contains graphic language and sexual themes. It is meant only for adults who are interested in this type of material for viewing in jurisdictions where its sale and enjoyment does not violate any local laws.
"Are you living out your dreams?" she mocked and patted his face.
John was breathing heavily as the pain of the onslaught on his ass sank in. It cooled to a dull ache, but he guessed more was to come as he sensed the brunette still standing close behind. She reached out and gently squeezed the rounded cheeks. "I'm not sure that we've given this cute ass enough punishment yet," she said. Circling around John, she stood beside the blonde then reaching out to John's erection grabbed it tightly and used it to lead him over to the sofa. He was pushed down over the arm so that his upper body was resting on the seat. It left him bent over in another position where his ass was totally exposed and he suspected that the girls weren't about to show him any mercy. The brunette walked across to a bag they brought with them and knelt down to open it. She reached inside and grinned as her fingers closed around the bright red acrylic spanking canes. Pulling them out she straightened up and moving back across the room handed one of the canes to her friend and kept the other. When she stood in front of the sofa she suddenly brought the cane down on the seat right in front of John's face. The crack of the toy on the sofa cushion almost made him jump and his eyes opened wide as he stared at it. Oh shit, he thought, this is going to be painful, but the idea only served to build his desire and he closed his eyes and waited. His anticipation rose as the wait stretched out, but a savage blow finally lashed across his buttocks and his body bucked up. His cry of anguish sounded around the room and brought out laughter from the girls.

Hello again, my sweet little mortals. It's been a bit since I last popped in, but so much has happened since we last met. It seems I won't be as "on my own" as I had hoped when Baby Brother called us all back. I was hoping to just do my thing, hang with you mortals, play in the dirt, and grow a little something to make the world smile. But that's all changed.
I was just getting my little diner all set up. I had some pretty curtains in the windows, flowers on all the tables, and was just getting ready to call up an all-organic supplier, when Baby Brother came walking through the door. Last I knew, he was out gallivanting around the world with another of his "assistants". However, I could tell by the look on his face, this was serious.
He took a seat at the counter and just stared at me. I wouldn't say it was fear, but he was very concerned about something. I poured him a cup of coffee, one for myself, and sat down next to him.
"What's going on, Baby Brother?" I asked, not really wanting the answer.
"Sister, I need your help. As you know, Ares and Hephaestus are already at each other's throats over Aphrodite. Hera's talking about writing a tell-all book. We have a couple gods out there throwing their true selves around in the mortal world. This might not have been as good an idea as I had hoped." Zeus dropped his head into his hands and just sighed. I hadn't seen him this upset since he had to set Pegasus in the Heavens. I knew I was going to have to help my family.
"What can I do, honey?"
He looked up at me with those damn puppy dog eyes. "We need your council."
"NO!" I cried defiantly. "I haven't done that gig in eons and I have no intentions of starting back up now."
I could see that little throbbing vein in his forehead begin to rise. I knew that meant his dander was rising, too.
"Damn it, Demeter. You ARE the goddess of sacred law, and we need you on the Mount before the rest of the family causes an international incident." He turned away and took another sip of his coffee. I could tell he was trying to keep his cool. How could I say no to that face? Mama Rhea would never forgive me.
Zeus closed his eyes for just a moment, took a long, deep breath, then looked me dead in my eyes. "Demeter, I need…no, we all need your help. This is never going to work if you're not on board as Divine Council. Please, Sister, help me help them."
Baby Brother never says please. Well, not to me anyway. I looked around my cute little diner, saddened at the idea of leaving it behind before it was even off the ground. But, my family needed me and that's when I made my decision.
"Alright, honey. Even though I haven't practiced law since the Council of Nicea, and we all know how well that went, I'll do it. However, I retain the right to open my diner at a later time if I so wish. Agreed?"
Zeus nodded his head, swallowed the last of his coffee, and got up from the counter. He gave me a quick hug and a wink, then headed for the door.
"Excuse me," I shouted after him, "you plan on paying for that coffee?"
He turned and looked back at me, a silly grin on his face. "Now, my sweet sister, why would I do that? If you were a restaurant owner, I might. But you're an OA attorney; consider it a write off. I'm sure I'll be needing your services before long myself".
With that, my baby brother walked out the door. Why, that little mama's boy couldn't even say thank you. So it looks like I'll have to have some of those cute, little business cards made up. The Demeter Law Offices are officially open.

Reordering products
There doesn't seem much consideration for ordering/reordering things in this software. Some but not much. Stores wish to reorder or rearrange to their preference, lest a presentation grows stale. I noticed comments about reordering custom fields. I would personally like to be able to reorder my products with each category. In the default sense all my products are ordered alphabetically. I have been unable to find an alternative as yet (still new to this software). I would instead like to be able to order/reorder based on SKU number. Or, since some of my products are more popular than others, I would like to be able to drag/drop or some-such arrange things per category based on my preference. It is, after all, my store.
Does anyone from 1ShoppingCart read these requests? Nice would also be a peer-to-peer users' discussion forum/discussion board for peer-to-peer assistance and insights.

Waffles On Tour
Posted on July 13, 2018 by Helen Kelley
Whether you like hash browns scattered, smothered and covered or a waffle (or two) cooked to golden brown perfection, Waffle House is a popular known quantity for good food around the country. And to think it all started right here in Georgia!
We wanted to learn all about this icon of the American South, so we paid a visit to the Waffle House Museum on E. College Ave. in Decatur. The museum is housed in the very first Waffle House location, which opened in 1955. We enjoyed seeing the vintage menus, uniforms and other memorabilia, including the jukebox stocked with songs like "Last Night I Saw Elvis at the Waffle House."
If you, too, would like to visit the Waffle House Museum, plan ahead! Tours are available by appointment only or on Wednesdays at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Call 770-326-7086 or log on to Waffle House Museum.
Dancing is Good for Body and Soul
Posted on April 25, 2018 by Helen Kelley
Line dancing, which became popular in the 70s disco era (remember the Electric Slide?), is a whole lot of fun…especially when you dance with friends! This form of dance is choreographed with a repeated sequence of steps, in which a group of people —in line formation — execute the steps at the same time.
Pictured enjoying one of our twice-monthly classes are Betty Franks, Rose Brual, Nancy Allvine, line dance teacher Leslie Thompson, Doris Kim and Abbie Codelli. (Marian David and Marge Pizzolato join them in the group photo.)
P.S. Men are welcome to join the ladies in this fun form of exercise that will get your heart pumping!
Thanks, Chef Roy!

Resident-Staff Collaboration Results in Expanded Menu Options
Posted on February 27, 2018 by Helen Kelley
When Ken Reheja moved to St. George Village, he knew that the community did not offer his native Indian cuisine. He also knew, however, that as a life plan retirement community, St. George Village has a person centered approach that encourages residents to actively participate and contribute ideas that are part of the community's continuing evolution. So Ken began offering suggestions to our culinary team, which went to work creating some recipes to incorporate his ideas.
Recently, Ken approached our Culinary Services Director Daniel Shaffer about the possibility of inviting two of his friends to come to St. George Village to teach a cooking class on Indian cuisine. The class was scheduled and our culinary staff learned how to prepare four authentic recipes, including a soup and an okra dish.
As a result, our culinary team is committed to a creative process that will lead to more vegetarian offerings on our menus. And we are pleased to offer a diversified cuisine that meets the needs of our residents.
What a wonderful collaboration between our residents and staff! Thanks, Ken!
Winter's Beauty

"He who marvels at the beauty of the world in summer will find equal cause for wonder and admiration in winter." — John Burroughs
It's a beautiful winter at St. George Village. Here's a photo of our lovely gazebo and lake on a recent snowy December day here in Georgia. It's like a picture perfect postcard, right?
Ho, ho, ho!

Get in the Game — Have Fun in Retirement!
Posted on November 2, 2017 by Helen Kelley
Who needs an actual football game to enjoy a tailgate party? It was all rah-rah-rah, sis-boom-bah at St. George Village when residents and visitors wearing their game-day best arrived at our October Tailgate & Celebrate event!
Tailgate & Celebrate was an afternoon to be remembered, with all of the ambience and fanfare of a college football game day experience. The event kicked off with a welcome by the Blessed Trinity High School Marching Band drum line at our front entrance, and classic cars lining the driveway, beckoning to be explored.
Throughout our grounds, guests joined in games of corn hole and football toss, grooved to the sounds of the 1950s and 60s spun by a DJ, and crammed into a photo booth for fun group snapshots. Our fabulous dining services staff prepared and served up a variety of delicious tailgate-style foods under college-themed tents, where fans of a feather gathered for more photo opportunities. And throughout the community, residents proudly displayed their college memorabilia, adding to the festive fall atmosphere.
At St. George Village, we understand the importance of having fun and why it is an integral part of a happy, healthy and successful retirement. According to the Harvard Study of Adult Development, one of the oldest and most respected studies on aging in the country, exercising, making new friends, continuing to learn and having fun are the closest things to finding the fountain of youth. In fact, planning for how you're going to incorporate these elements into your retirement lifestyle is crucial to how successful you will be.
Fun events like Tailgate & Celebrate are a regular part of our full slate of activities that include planned excursions to places local and farther away, intellectually challenging discussions and technology workshops, fitness opportunities, gaming, concerts and more! Every day, we offer opportunities for our residents to learn new things, make new friends and live life to the fullest.
Come see all of the ways you can experience a fun-filled retirement lifestyle at St. George Village. Take a tour, stay for lunch. Call Stacy at 678-987-0402 for a confidential appointment.

Dave Farrington on a Samsung patent that may lead to smartphones that actually bend and flex. On purpose.
How will it bend or fold? Another issue is, 'Do we care?' Can future folding smartphones be so thin that when folded in half remains as thin as an iPhone or Galaxy Flame Thrower does now? Does a curved case smartphone provide any real benefit? Can you hold it better? Does a handheld device that can bend along your cheek offer any benefit? Does a screen that folds in half mean we can have iPhones with double the screen size of an iPhone 7 Plus? If so, how do you navigate with a single thumb?
Lots of questions.

If Dreams have meaning I reckon I must be certifiable.
Almost a year ago a girlfriend gave me a Dream Journal, cos I was not sleeping and weird stories were weaving through that twilight of wishful sleeping, Ta very much Carol. There was some control over 'em but not much. I didn't write many down, ok I didn't write any of 'em down - sorry Carol. But I have since become more aware of what strangeness is going on in there.
As luck would have it, or NOT, sleep has been hard to come by again this week, until last night when I died a quick slide into the unconscious. Yummo! No getting up 4 or 5 times to pee or close the windows or check the temperature or get the cotton blanket or kick said blanket off. Nope, I slept all the way through until THIS woke.
Suddenly as I sat in a more than a little rustic cabin - yeh read shit house, the door was flung open and a bunch of soldiers threw somebody onto the dirt floor. The door slammed closed and I wasn't afraid cos it wasn't a jail or anything like that. It was just where I was staying.
He turned over and I recognised him. Bugger me, it was Michael Jackson!! Now this was getting peculiar, especially as even though I have long recognised the talent behind his music, it has never been my favourite. I don't own and have never bought any of his records.
Before we exchanged pleasantries and I got to ask him how it happened that he had been flung onto the floor I was paying rent on, the door opened and the soldiers all got their big guns, might have been riffles or machine guns as not even in a dream do I notice that stuff, and they all shot MICHEAL JACKSON!!
They shot again and again and his body plumped up and down like in the movies. I guess when the ammo ran out, the soldiers left without a word and closed the door.
Fucking hell!!
I didn't move to see if he was OK. He had to be dead he'd been shot so many times and I was pretty sure I could see blood. And I didn't run out of the cabin. I just sat there and after what seemed like a really long time, Michael Jackson rolled over and winked at me.
Then I woke up. The details were right there in the front of my brain.
How weird is that?
If anyone wants to venture a guess about the meaning then I'd be very pleased to hear it.

text: Are Toronto, Vancouver facing an office vacancy surge? The office vacancy rates in Toronto and Vancouver are set to double by 2023 according to a new report. Research firm CoStar Group says that the vacancy rate in downtown Toronto, which was at a historic low of 2.9% in the second quarter of 2018, will hit 6% in 2023. For Vancouver, the rate is also set to hit 6% in 4 years, escalating from 2%. The reason for the forecasted surge in vacancies is tenants attracted to new units that are becoming available and an increase in rents. "A lot of the existing landlords that are going to be suffering with higher vacancy in their existing stock," Roelof van Dijk, director of market analytics, Canada at CoStar told Bloomberg. "They're the ones that are building." The firm says there are 25 new office buildings incoming in Toronto and 15 towers in Vancouver. Rent growth to ease As tenants move to new buildings and vacancy rates rise, landlords can expect rent growth to slide. In Toronto, annual rent growth of 6% currently is expected to continue a downward trend, while the growth in Vancouver which has almost halved in the past year, is expected to cut back to just 1.5% by 2023.

PRINCETON, N.J. – Harvard baseball freshman Buddy Hayward has been named the Ivy League Rookie of the Week as announced by the conference today. Hayward made his collegiate debut this past weekend in Harvard's four-game series with Samford.
In game one against the Bulldogs, Hayward pinch hit for Austin Black and batted in two runs on a double in the top of the eighth to give Harvard a 4-3 lead that would force extra innings. Then, in Harvard's 15 inning win later in the day, the rookie pitched four innings, allowing just one hit and totaling seven strikeouts and zero walks.
On day two, Hayward connected on two of three at bats during the later game and scored Harvard's lone run on a Devan Peterson hit in the top of the fourth.
The Harvard baseball team returns to the diamond this coming weekend for a four-game series with New Mexico State. Games are set for Friday, March 2 at 8 p.m. EST, doubleheader on Saturday, March 3 beginning at 2 p.m. EST and Sunday, March 4 at 2 p.m. EST.
