I have worked with Caroline Jens with Child Care Biz Help for a couple of years now. She had supported our state agency, the Wisconsin Child Care Administrators Association (WCCAA) in many ways. She has participated as a vendor at our annual conference, she has presented workshops at our annual conference, she has provided trainings for administrators in the Milwaukee area and she has presented Webinars for our WCCAA members. All have been very well received. Caroline is extremely knowledgeable of the early care and education field, not only from a provider perspective, but from a business and marketing perspective. I personally have participated in her workshops and Webinars and have gained a great deal of knowledge from them. I think you will find that working with Caroline, you will be very satisfied.

"Let's go Ducks! Let's go Ducks!" The crowds at the Cuthbert Ampitheater chanted. Mike Love, frontman for The Beach Boys, had just acknowledged that his little brother Stan Love played basketball for the Ducks from 68′-71. He led the Pac-8 in scoring for two consecutive years (he is also the father of Kevin Love of the Minnesota Timberwolves). Stan Love stood up from his seat near the stage and the fans cheered wildly when they found out that The Beach Boys were connected to their community in this way. That's when the chanting began. When it died down The Beach Boys began singing their 1963 hit song, "Be True to Your School".
Mike Love knows how to whip a crowd into a frenzy and get everyone excited, after all, he's been performing along with the other band members since 1961. The Beach Boys formed in Hawthorne, California and found success quickly. By 1966 they released one of the most influential rock albums of all-time, Pet Sounds, which landed a #2 ranking on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" list.
The Beach Boys brought their soothing harmonies and surf sounds to Eugene as part of their 50th Anniversary Tour. The band has been through a lot together over the last 51 years: the death of Dennis and Carl Wilson (two of the original band members), Brian Wilson's battles with mental instability, their 1988 Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame induction, 21 albums, and their performances at the Super Bowl and The White House. Add a double-decade long touring hiatus on top of that, and when you consider how well Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, Bruce Johnston, and David Marks performed, their voices smooth as ever, it's a testament to this band's unsurpassed longevity and enduring legacy.
On Saturday July 14, droves of supercharged fans of all ages poured into the Cuthbert to experience the soothing harmonies and surf sounds of The Beach Boys. The atmosphere was nostalgic. Grey-hair clad couples danced and sang the songs they grew up with in the 60's and 70's while younger generations of fans followed suit. It was warm too, just the right temperature for an outdoor concert.
Augie Enriquez, who has been a fan since 1963, came to the show with his son. During the intermission he reminisced about listening to the band in their heyday, "The sound that they had at the time was different. I bet I still have 20 of their singles. You can't even find them anymore. During the time when we were in high school and college you would hear the songs all the time and they'd get in your head."
The Beach Boys played hits like "409", "Surfin USA", "In My Room," "Little Duece Coup", Wouldn't it be Nice, and "Help me Rhonda" to name just a few.
The band also played new songs from their album "That's Why God Made the Radio", which is their first album in 16-years. The album features one single with the same title as the album. It was released in June.

With the school year right around the corner, you are probably focused on school supplies, new shoes, and back to school clothes. Dentistry is likely the last thing in your mind, but it's actually a good idea to schedule your child's next cleaning and checkup appointment before school starts. Dr. Stephen Scotto-Lavino, your dentist in Selden, explains how scheduling your child's routine dental visit now will benefit them.
Schedule Now – Before it becomes Too Hectic
Back to school brings with it a flurry of activities including sports, back to school night, and other extracurricular activities. Trying to fit a dental appointment in after school may become challenging, and it's so much easier if your child doesn't have to miss school for their dental care. Schedule your child's appointment before school starts while your schedule is more relaxed.
Take Care of Any Treatment Needs
When you bring your child in before school starts, we'll be able to detect and diagnose any treatment needs such as cavities needing fillings. It's also a good time to take care of these concerns prior to the start of school so your child doesn't experience any pain or discomfort that could disrupt their school day. We're often able to take care of small treatment issues the same day your child has their cleaning and checkup, saving you an extra trip to our office.
Additional Services for Children
As your child gets older, we may suggest some additional services for them including fluoride treatments or dental sealants. Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral that will strengthen and help build your child's developing teeth. Dental sealants are a thin protective coating we place over the chewing surface of their teeth to protect from the acids and bacteria that cause cavities.
If your child participates in sports, their routine checkup is a good time to discuss with Dr. Scotto-Lavino the right protective wear for their particular sport. Did you know that 40% of dental emergencies are caused by sports injuries? Make sure to protect your child's teeth and mouth with a proper fitting sports guard.
Contact Our Office Today
We're still accepting appointments for cleaning and checkups before the school year starts. Give us a call today to schedule your child's next appointment!

I received this book for free from Purchased in exchange for an honest review.
This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
by K.A. Tucker
Released: June 11, 2013
Series: Ten Tiny Breaths #2
Published by Atria
Pages: 336
"…it is one of those stories that keeps you turning the pages, so involved in what's happening and taking you along for the ride." ~Under the Covers
I was anxiously awaiting the release of ONE TINY LIE. The story of Livie, Kacey's younger sister from TEN TINY BREATHS. After the emotional rollercoaster that book was and all the things Kacey had to go through with her parents death, nobody really focused on the marks that would leave on the impressionable young girl Livie was.
She seemed so strong and ready to face everything and anything, but inside she was hiding her own fears. It was interesting to see Livie's emotional shell start to crumble as she opened herself up and experienced life. It was also bound to happen that she found herself attracted to a damaged guy.
Ashton is to die for sexy. The bad boy everyone warns you to stay away because he'll break your heart. You may enjoy the ride but you know it's going to end soon. But he is different with Livie. And when he cares for her and shows her, you can't help but melt right along with her. Like they said in the book, it's not the words, it's the actions that let you know that someone loves you. And Ashton had plenty of those. Mixed in with plenty of ass moments. 🙂
I think Ashton and Livie were a perfect compliment for each other. They are both in much the same uncertain place in their lives where they have to figure out where to go from here. Livie has been following a pattern for her life of what she thought her parents would want for her. And realizing that is not really fitting her. Ashton has been also following a pattern for his life set by his father and trying to break free from that. I loved how they help each other find their way out of those blocks.
I was not too happy about the fact that there was a triangle. Well, you can't really call it that because Livie never really cares for Connor and Connor never really shows much interest in my opinion. But I don't like the cheating part so I would've rather not seen that element in the book. It added only a small level of drama that was really not all that necessary.
This story is different from TEN TINY BREATHS in the fact that it doesn't pack as much of an emotional punch. It's a story of self discovery and healing, but slow and easy, where the previous was more of a fast and hard wreck. Nevertheless, it is one of those stories that keeps you turning the pages, so involved in what's happening and taking you along for the ride.

I'm a part time graphic designer (yes, everything you see on UTC has been done by me), run my husband's business from home and on a good day I'm a self appointed superwoman (she who can do it all).I love blogging with my girls and I couldn't do it any other way!My first love is everything paranormal, but in the past few years I've re-learned to love contemporary romance.Every once in a while I like to mix things up with a historical romance, a steampunk or an LGBT book.Because I need variety to avoid book slumps.I don't always need an HEA although I prefer one, and I love authors that can rip my heart out and make me ugly cry.

Kale & Squash Galette with Olive Oil Crust
Kale and kabocha pair deliciously in this healthy vegetarian galette recipe that looks as fabulous as it tastes. The squash wedges are roasted, peel and all, while the onions and kale are sautéed, and then everything is baked into this yeasted olive oil crust. If kabocha squash isn't available, buttercup squash is a good substitute.
To prepare dough: Combine water, sugar and yeast in a small bowl; stir to dissolve the yeast, then set aside for a few minutes until foamy.Advertisement
Combine whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk 2 tablespoons oil into the foamy yeast mixture. Pour the liquid into the flour mixture and mix with a wooden spoon until a dough forms; it will be soft. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board and knead until it is smooth and pliant and springs back when pushed down, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking, but don't let it get stiff and dry.
Lightly coat a large bowl with oil. Shape the dough into a ball and place in the bowl, turning to coat with oil. Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and set in a warm, draft-free place to rise until roughly double in size, about 1 hour.
To prepare filling: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a large baking sheet with oil or cooking spray.
While the dough is rising, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until just starting to lightly brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
While the onions are cooking, scrub squash (but don't peel it). Cut it in half and remove the stem and seeds. Cut into fairly thin wedges, about 1/2 inch wide at the rind. Toss the squash with 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl, rubbing lightly with your hands until all the slices are well coated. Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake, turning the slices over about halfway through, until tender and browned, 30 to 35 minutes.
When the onions are done, push them to the edges of the pan; add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the center, then add garlic and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Add kale and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until the kale is wilted, 3 to 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons water, cover and cook, stirring once or twice and adding water by the tablespoon if the pan is dry, until the kale is just tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup cheese.
When the squash is done, reserve 6 of the prettiest slices. Cut the remaining slices into 1-inch pieces. Add the squash pieces to the onion-kale mixture and gently combine.
To roll out dough: Place a large piece of parchment paper on a work surface and dust it with flour. Roll the risen dough into a thin round, 15 to 16 inches across.
To assemble & bake: Spread the onion-kale-squash mixture over the dough, leaving a 2-inch border around the edge. Arrange the reserved squash slices decoratively on top and gently press into the filling. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup cheese and pine nuts on top. Fold the edges of the dough up over the filling in loose pleats. Lift or slide the galette, parchment and all, onto a large baking sheet. Trim off any overhanging parchment.
Bake the galette until the edges are lightly brown and sound hollow when tapped, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Make Ahead Tip: Prepare dough (Steps 1-3), tightly wrap and refrigerate for up to 1 day or freeze airtight for up to 3 months; thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Let stand at room temperature 20 to 30 minutes before rolling.
Equipment: Parchment paper
Tip: White whole-wheat flour, made from a special variety of white wheat, is light in color and flavor but has the same nutritional properties as regular whole-wheat flour. It is available at large supermarkets and natural-foods stores and online at bobsredmill.com or kingarthurflour.com. Store it in the freezer.

In order to completely win the battle in the prevention and control of air pollution, Xuzhou is determined to require all coal-fired power generation companies to carry out the transformation of the fume emissions system as soon as possible on the basis of ultra-low emissions specified by all power enterprises. In late September, Xuzhou CR completed the commissioning of the whitening project (Phase III) and realized the high-standard slurry condensation whitening technology on its two million units, thus becoming the first power company to realize it in China.
For decades, chimneys, with long white smoke plume, have been a symbol of power plants in China. In September this year, the newly-completed CR Power Million-level Unit Whitening Project (Phase III) will change the history.
It is learned that China's large-scale power plants had already achieved ultra-low emissions before this. However, the fume emissions whitening project is to further reduce the temperature, moisture content and materials carried on the basis of ultra-low emission.
With a total investment of RMB 112 million, Xuzhou CR Power's fume dehumidifying and whitening project is fully underway. After Phase III of the project, for the fume emissions standard for the 240-meter-high chimneys of the 2MW units, the smoke temperature is set to be below 47℃ after condensation in summer and the moisture content below 10.4%. And after condensation in winter, the smoke temperature can reach below 45℃, and the moisture content of the fume below 9.5%.
Due to the adoption of energy-saving technology, the fume whitening technology of Xuzhou CR Power implemented through slurry condensation has reached international advanced level.
Currently, having successfully achieved its expected goal, the slurry condensation project of the MW units has been put into trial operation.
"The large screen shows that the real-time data of enterprise fume and dust emission is less than 2mg while the national fume and dust emission is 10 mg/m3. Through ultra-low emission modification and whitening modification, the smoke and dust emission concentration will be further lowered," said Zhang Feng, technical director of Xuzhou (Tongshan) CR Power Co., Ltd., in the Central Control Office of Xuzhou CR Power Co., Ltd.
The data will be optimized once again and far beyond the national standards after the fume emissions whitening project is completely put into operation.
Yang Qing, vice director of the Technical Support Department of Xuzhou (Tongshan) CR Power Co., Ltd., said that through the dehumidification and whitening transformation, each unit can reduce dust emission by about 20 tons per year, soluble salts by about 1000 tons, and sulfur dioxide emission by about 200 tons.
It is learned that Xuzhou CR Power, with six units with a total installed capacity of 3,280MW, is the largest thermal power plant in North Jiangsu. In order to serve Xuzhou's social development, Xuzhou CR Power quickly set up a leading group for dehumidification and whitening of flue gas. On the basis of a scientific plan made at the end of April this year, the project of dehumidification and whitening of flue gas of Xuzhou CR Power with a total investment of RMB 112 million was officially launched on May 27. Currently, Phase III of the project for the 2 MW units has been completed, while Phase I and II of the project will also be completed and put into production in late October.
Besides Xuzhou CR Power, 10 thermal power plants, including Xuzhou Power Plant of Guohua Electric Power Company, Huamei Power Plant and Xukuang Power Plant of Xuzhou Coal Mining Group, have implemented the dehumidifying and whitening project to achieve a reduction of 50% on the basis of the current ultra-low emissions.
So what exactly is the fume emissions whitening project?
According to Li Duosong, associate professor at the School of Environmental Testing, China University of Mining and Technology, white is not equal to green. White smoke contains a large amount of water vapor and carries a lot of pollutants which will aggravate atmospheric environmental pollution, especially in some local areas. Therefore, in order to completely solve the problem of coal-fired pollution in power plants, it is necessary to remove the water from the fume.
It is reported that the fume emissions by the power plants in China have been ultra-low as its emission standards are even higher than those of developed countries. Then under what context was the said project launched? According to experts, this is closely related to the current background of air pollution prevention and control carried out on a nationwide scale.
"Although our coal-fired power plants have been very strict in emissions (even lower than developed countries such as the United States and the European Union), due to the large number of coal-fired units and the high amount of fume emitted in our country, coupled with the pollutants carried by water vapor, the small particles, soluble salts, sulfuric acid trioxide mist, desulfurization absorbent, gypsum and other pollutants emitted by the fume with water will aggravate the air pollution in local areas," said Li Duosong.
In the previous autumns and winters, Xuzhou's air quality in winter was relatively poor due to various factors such as its heavy industrial structure and backward production capacity, as well as unfavorable conditions for atmospheric diffusion.
In 2018, the city's atmospheric target is 60 micrograms per cubic meter in terms of PM 2.5 and 60% or higher in terms of fine weather. This year, having made a firm determination, Xuzhou has launched an all-round battle to prevent and control air pollution. The city has conducted a comprehensive investigation of enterprises failing to conform to the relevant standards, paid close attention to coal-fired pollution control, vigorously promoted classified rectification of coal-fired boilers, focused on special inspection of VOCs pollution control, attached great importance to dust pollution control, formulated regulations for various construction sites, harbors and ports, dismantled seriously-polluted port enterprises, and closed down illegal quarrying (gravel) sites. More than 10 power plants have reformed their fume emissions systems and basically eliminated gypsum rain and colored smoke plume, thus making their due contributions to improving the city's atmospheric and environmental quality.

GSTN Strengthens its Cyber Security System
GSTN is in charge of technological infrastructure for the new goods and services tax regime and opened its portal to taxpayer registration in November. This saw Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) which is a cyber attack aimed at disrupting services and bringing down the host system.
Cyber attack and subsequent plans to build a cyber security unit were confirmed by two sources.
"There were attempts from countries such as Pakistan and China to swarm the system with a DDOS attack and bring it down. GSTN was able to ensure the system was not disrupted."
Rajesh Maurya (Regional Vice-president, India & SAARC at Fortinet) said :
"Regarding the threat landscape, it is as bad as it's ever been, if not worse. Cyber crime is big business and is growing at an exponential rate."
CSRF attack has been seen in GSTN system. In this attack, a malware creates a Trojan, which can execute unwanted actions from the user's end. The source cited above said GSTN has also put in place systems to prevent such malware attacks. The network did not respond to specific queries about cyber security threats. Experts feel GSTN can expect hacking attempts, given the importance of commercial data it will handle.

Jessa and Kevin's wedding was the perfect way to set the mood for fall. I admired their down-to-earth attitude in planning, and also their willingness to embrace the season for the early October nuptials. I'm talking leaves, pumpkin cake, and caramel apples galore… yum! Additionally, I loved their creativity in venue selection for their ceremony: the centrally-located Bartell Theater. If you haven't been there before or you're looking for an event space of your own, I would highly recommend it!
The reception at The Madison Concourse Hotel was one of classic elegance, complete with romantic lighting and spot-on draping from Event Essentials. To keep things interesting, Kuhl Entertainment provided Tuxedo Trivia, and guests chowed down on Ian's Pizza until the party closed. I'd consider this nothing but timeless in my books.
Congrats Jessa and Kevin!

While I've only spent an hour or so within your borders, I'll be back to thank you when time permits. I won't forget. When we stood as a nation on the edge of the abyss, like Frodo with all ten hairy toes wiggling in open space, the people of Alabama had what it took to simply say "NO!" to those trying to shove raw evil down our throat.
Thank you.

Coquitlam Crunch Hike Intro
The Coquitlam Crunch is a popular trail primarily used for exercise. The route starts off Landsdowne Dr. near Eagle Ridge Elementary School and climbs straight up Westwood Plateau in Coquitlam. The total return-trip is 4.4 kilometers and takes about 1.5 hours on average.
The Coquitlam Crunch runs under a power line and has a net elevation of 242 m. The trail is a mixture of stairs, pavement, and gravel. In the summer months, it is bustling with locals getting in some post-work exercise. "The trail sees approximately 7,000 visits per month during the low periods and up to 52,000 visits per month during peak use periods in the spring and summer months" [Source]
If you're looking to get away from the city and into nature, you should probably take a pass on this hike. While the trail runs underneath a power line and isn't your typical 'hike', it does, however, offer some nice views, especially on a sunny evening. As you climb the trail and look back, you have scenic views of Blue Mountain, Burnaby Mountain, and beyond to the Fraser Valley.
The many shrubs which run under the power lines and up along the trail provide habitat for birds, raccoons, coyotes, deer, and even black bears.
The Coquitlam Crunch is undergoing upgrades by the City of Coquitlam through 2023. New washrooms, paved parking, and additional connector trails will be built following the writing of this guide in 2018. There are now stairs on both sides of the lower portion of the trail.
While the trail sometimes draws comparisons to the Grouse Grind, the Coquitlam Crunch trail is much easier.
A note on safety: Stay clear of the power lines. They are 500,000-volt transmission lines. Never touch or go near the wires. You should also stay away from this hike during lightning storms, and never seek shelter near the base of the towers.

Coquitlam Crunch Hiking Route
We hiked this trail in the fall of 2017, and the description below reflects the trail as of that time. The City of Coquitlam is currently doing major upgrades to the trail and the route as described below will now have some differences. Mainly, the stairs at the start of the hike which have been moved to the other side of the power lines. We will complete this hike again soon and update the description below soon.
From the parking lot (directions), there's a signboard with information about the trail. Walk along the gravel path north, up the hill. It's a wide and groomed gravel trail. Walk up for about two minutes. You will come to a set of stairs and the first road crossing, which is Lansdowne Drive.
After crossing the road, the stairs begin. They are periodically numbered, starting at 0 and ending at stair 437. There's a trail to the side of the stairs if you prefer the gentle incline to the steps. The stairs themselves are wide and able to comfortably accommodate up and down traffic.
The stairs here are steep, and it won't take long for your heart rate to increase. Settle into a comfortable pace and make your way up the many, many steps.
When you get to step 375 there's a bench and lookout on the right. Catch your breath, and then keep going to step 437.
At the top of the stairs, you will cross over Lansdowne Drive for the second time.
The next section of trail is gravel. There are a few stairs where the trail takes a curve to the right and then curves back up north. Behind you, to the left, you can see Burnaby Mountain and the Metrotown area off in the distance. Directly south you can see Blue Mountain.
Soon, you will reach another road (David Ave). After crossing David Ave., the trail becomes pavement and climbs less steeply than before. If you have your dog, the area of grass here is the Bramble Park off-leash area.

Keep climbing, and as you reach the end of this section, the trail splits to the left or right. Go to the left, up the stairs towards the basketball court. You can go right, but it's more direct to go left. Follow the trail up to the next road, which is Panorama Drive.
Cross the road and begin the next and final section of trail. There is Bramblewood Elementary School on your right and a baseball diamond. The route continues to be paved. Simply keep going up all the way to the top. The trail turns back to gravel for the final stretch and continues at a gradual incline. At last, you will reach a sign at Eagle Mountain Drive, the end of the trail.
Take a break and enjoy the view from the top. When ready, tackle the steady downhill back to your car.
Directions and Parking
Take the Barnet Highway in Coquitlam, and turn north onto Lansdowne Drive. Shortly after passing Guilford way, you will take a left into the parking lot for the start of the Coquitlam Crunch.

MICHELLE Jankovic needed a helping hand but didn't know where to find it.
Ms Jankovic, whose 12-year-old son has mild cerebral palsy, found it difficult to find extra support for her son once he entered primary school.
To fill the gap she saw widening beneath her very feet, Michelle started up Helping Hand – a disability services workshop aiming to better inform primary school families in Casey and Cardinia of the help available to them.
It is Ms Jankovic's dedication that has led to Helping Hand taking out the home-based business category at the Casey Cardinia Awards.
"It was hard finding support, endless phone calls, trying to chase support when I'm trying to find time to digest Bailey's diagnosis, and what that means and what he requires," Ms Jankovic said.
"I was always involved in check-ups and daily therapy, spending many hours in the waiting room at the Royal Children's.
"When my son was a toddler, once he began school and my youngest started school that gave me time to collate all the resources I had found, all the connections I'd made, and turn it into an online accessible website, and from that it grew into workshops."
Ms Jankovic started up the online directory roughly three years ago, and the business has developed rapidly from there.
She said nothing felt more rewarding that when she saw the looks of appreciation on the faces of the parents she spoke to.
"You have no idea, when I see their face and the light bulb goes off that there's new support, that's when I get the joy," Ms Jankovic said.
"I understand exactly where that person opposite me is coming from. They want the best for their child or family member."
Ms Jankovic is now also encouraging schools to invite her to hold discussions with parents and carers to make them aware of what support is available and where to find it.
She said the response from schools had been extremely encouraging.
"All the principals I've spoken to 100 per cent agreed that there was a need for this type of workshop," Ms Jankovic said.
"I find that if families are fully aware and supported and connected to all services that they can apply for, that builds stronger families."
"It can prevent families from falling apart under the stress of looking after children with additional needs, and the financial strain can be lifted through connecting families with funding concessions."
Ms Jankovic said it was a blessing to be nominated for a Casey Cardinia Business Award, her first ever nomination.

Big Island Overview
Maps | Luau Information | Pre-Travel Checklist | Traveling with Children | Family Activities | Wedding Information | WiFi Locations
Although it is located within the tropics, the Big Island is one of the world's most climatically diverse spots. All but two of the earth's climate zones are found here (no arctic or tundra, if you must know). But the general rule of thumb is that the eastern side of the Big Island (the Hamakua Coast) tends to be wetter and more tropical while the western side (the Kona Coast) tends to be drier and sunnier.
Hamakua Coast: The wetter eastern slope of Mauna Kea stretching from Waipio Valley to Hilo, the Hamakua Coast is home to waterfalls, lush valleys, abandoned sugar mills and sleepy plantation towns.
Hilo: The second most populous city in the state and the center of Big Island government. Also, the rainiest city in the U.S.
Kailua-Kona: Locals call it Kona (video). This former sleepy fishing village, now the population center of West Hawaii, is the starting point of the Ironman Triathlon and home to the annual Hawaiian International Billfish Tournament.
Kamuela (Waimea): Cowboy country and the home of the Parker Ranch, Kamuela is also known as Waimea, which means 'red water' in Hawaiian (video).
Kau: (pronounced cow-OO) comprises the vast southern portion of the island and is home to the world's most active volcano.
Kilauea: This centerpiece of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park has been erupting since 1983. Click here for the latest information about eruptions within the crater.
Kohala Coast: The dry northwest coast of the Big Island that is home to luxurious resort hotels and the island's best and most scenic beaches. It is also the birthplace of Hawaii's first monarch and home to the most haunting (and perhaps haunted) heiau in the state.
Mauna Kea: Hawaiian for 'White Mountain'; It is skiable most winters (sorry, no chair lifts). When measured from its base on the ocean floor, it stands nearly four thousand feet taller than Mt. Everest.
Mauna Loa: Means 'long mountain' in Hawaiian. The mass of this gigantic shield volcano makes up 85% of the Big Island.
Puna: The area south of Hilo and east of Kau has untouched rainforests, black sand beaches (including the island's only informal 'clothing optional' beach), geothermally heated ocean pools, orchid farms, and the world's most active volcano.
South Point: The southernmost point of the United States (yes, Hawaii is the 50th state, although it may seem like a foreign country at times). South Point is home to wind turbines, green sand beaches, and powerful ocean currents. Plan ahead. There are no comfort facilities at South Point.
Waipio Valley: Incredible natural beauty is contained within the valley's sheer walls. View the valley from the overlook (bring your binoculars) or reserve a valley tour at a nearby gallery or at the entrance to the valley.
Big Island Trivia
•The Big Island is the most distant island in the world. No other island is as far away from a major land mass.
•At less than one-half million years old, The Big Island is the youngest Hawaiian Island.
•Measuring more than 33,000 feet from its undersea base to its top, Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain on Earth.
•With a volume of more than 18,000 cubic miles, Mauna Loa is the most massive mountain on earth.
•Encompassing 4,028 square miles, the Big Island's land area equals 62 percent of the total land area of the Hawaiian Islands.
•Kilauea is the world's most active volcano. It has been erupting continuously since 1983. (I saw it the night it started.) Click here for tour information.
•Totaling nearly 150,000 acres, the Parker Ranch, centered in the town of Waimea (Kamuela) is one of the nation's largest. Click here to learn how to go horseback riding on the Big Island..
•Kamuela is named for a former postmaster named Samuel (Kamuela, in Hawaiian). The town's real name is Waimea, which means 'red water'. During a part of the year the stream that flows through town takes on a rusty color caused by decaying hapu ferns - or the blood of fallen warriors. Your choice.
•Every Hawaiian island has a town named Waimea, which is why our Waimea is also called Kamuela (pronounced Kam-uh- WELL-uh).
•The Big Island is the birthplace of King Kamehameha the Great, the first king of Hawaii. He lived out his sunset years in what is now Kailua-Kona. He could have lived on any island, but chose this one. Need we say more?
•All of the other major Hawaiian islands could fit on the Big Island...twice (with a little overlap).
•The written Hawaiian language is comprised of 12 letters - the five vowels and these seven consonants: h, k, l, m, n, p, w. (although the `okina, or golttal stop in words such as pu`u is considered a consonant by some).
•In the Hawaiian language, Mauna Kea means 'White Mountain'. Its summit is usually snow capped during the Hawaiian winter.
•All street lights on the island are yellow, as a way to reduce light pollution for astronomers atop Mauna Kea.
•Humpback whales spend part of the fall and winter in Big Island waters. According to biologists, they do not feed while they are here.
•The Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle is not really green on the outside. Because of the algae it eats, its fat is green.
•Residents of Hawaii consume more SPAM® (an average of 5.6 cans each per year) than residents in any other state. Even fast food restaurants in Hawaii feature SPAM® on their menus.
•Hawaii is one of the 50 United States. Vacationers sometimes refer to the mainland U.S. as the "States" ("We have something like that back in the states.") Locals and savvy visitors refer to the contiguous 48 states as 'The Mainland'.

I've had several requests for more info on how I make the punched corner frames. You can see more of them in this post. For this reason, I have taken some photos while making this card.
I like the Corner Adorner punches for this because of the frame that makes placement easy. Just fit the corners into the punch, punch and rotate to punch all corners. They will be evenly spaced for an insert.
Measure the opening for insert placement.
Measure the space between the punches, in both directions. Cut your insert to this size or slightly small to make insertion easier.
The back side is not too attractive, so this is best used as a layer. If you punch these corners in the base card, you will probably want to line the card to cover the back.

There are a bunch of indications that one of the things that may have to be done to get a climate bill through the senate is the inclusion of some kind of "carbon tariff" to prevent a cap-and-trade program from disadvantaging US-based manufacturers vis-à-vis their developing world rivals. In theory, the carbon border adjustment idea makes a lot of sense, but almost everyone I speak to is skeptical that it would actually work correctly in practice as opposed to becoming a venue for a lot of gamesmanship.
One reason for skepticism is that I'm actually skeptical that a properly implemented set of worldwide carbon border adjustments would actually achieve its intended purpose of boosting American manufacturing. After all, despite all the China hype we do much more trade with developed countries — countries with considerably less carbon-intense economies. Combining data from here and here I present the following chart of leading trade partners:
The EU, Canada, and Japan are in the aggregate much more significant trade partners than China/Mexico/Brazil. And the case for them charging us carbon tariffs seems about as good as the case for us charging the Chinese.
Graph needs units! Those are billions of US dollars.

Chicago-based artist Vanessa Walilko has created everyone's next wardrobe must-have: an octopus chainmail hood.
Made from over 15,000 aluminum rings, the hood features a metallic octopus you can wear on your head, complete with shiny tentacles that fabulously drape over your body. We're not sure if you can see out of it, but it'll nonetheless be a great outfit at your next Hail Lord Cthulhu Fan Club meeting.
But seriously, this piece is incredible – just look at the details on that thing! It's no surprise that the artist who made it has been teaching chainmail since 2007, and has made chainmail props for productions like Night at the Museum 3 and the Tony-award winning Broadway show Pippin.
If you're interested in making your own octopus chainmail hood (we know you are), Walilko has the instructions in her book Chain Mail + Color, among other DIY projects.

Hold nothing back! This phrase implies an act of surrender, "no pretense"... giving your all. Many situations in life calls for us to surrender our will, wants or desires and at times even our needs. It is never our genuine interest to sacrifice what we want, to give up our will or desire. An action of this nature is very humbling. It makes one neglect their true interest in realization of (or to meet) someone else's need or want. We can look at "giving your all" in terms of doing your best (for you), or giving of your self to others. When I say "giving of yourself", I mean serving others (whole-heatedly) in meaningful ways.
Hold Nothing Back!
Streams in the Desert
Expect to have your hope to be rekindled, your prayers answered. Have faith that God will deliver you. Believe that the rain will fall again. because dry seasons in life do not last.
"I will open up rivers for them on the high plateaus. I will give them fountains of water in the valleys. I will fill the desert with pools of water. Rivers fed by springs will flow across the parched ground."- Isaiah 41:18 (NLT)
Have you ever been through a dry spell (in your life)? Well, I have. There are periods in life when you feel so drained....you feel like you've given all you got and there's nothing more that you can give...nothing more to do. Sometimes you may feel wasted...you're giving your best yet nothing adds up/ It seems like your best isn't good enough.. It is probably this time in your life when you feel lost, forsaken or alone. You are desperately seeking a refreshing...a new beginning. Waiting for a miracle or you may have lost all hope.
Realize Your Potential
Ephesians 3:20 denotes that God can do anything beyond our imagination. He is the God who possibilities (Luke 1:37). This is undeniably true but as human beings we find it hard to believe the things we cannot see. We therefore struggle to think beyond what we see. Christians too tend to believe the lie that what God does for someone else, He won't do for you. Or. what He gives to others, He won't give to us. So, we tend to think too shallow, pray too small, believe 'less', and we live too small. When we think so narrowly, we limit our full potential in life.
Fly High but Keep the Blinker On
It isn't always about who could fly the highest or have the best of everything. Aim high but be wise about it because after all what really matters is not who can climb the highest but it is about who can survive the worst. But more importantly your 'attitude'. You see, the truth is you can climb so high and still fall even lower than you've been before. So, eventually the first might be last and the last first as the Word of God tells us in Matthew 19:30 and Luke 13:30.
Often times I am baffled by the down fall of many, including Christians, and am sure like me, many of you may often ask," How in the world did they come from being Queens and Kings to such state of poverty. How did he come from being President to a mere member or no member at all? How come she moved from being the well loved,well-supported songster to just an ordinary singer. He was a great business manager, now how come he seems to be so unsuccessful? Such occurrences often leaves us speechless and confused. Reaching so far or having achieved so much and yet fall way back down the ladder is 'a stab in the chest'. How horrible and uncertain the feeling may be for the individual going through such down fall. Should a king loose his throne, or should a queen loose her crown it would be very a devastating. When people who are successful and prosperous suddenly becomes merely a bunch of egg shells, they feel that their lives are meaningless and useless. They feel like a curse of death has come over them. But they don't understand it themselves. Many victims would often wonder, "How did this happen?" They are as dumbstruck as we are. Still they have no clue.
Be encouraged! It's a new day filled with new blessings. Yesterday's gone, tomorrow is yet to come, today is all we have. Pep-up your morning.
Have an inspiring day!
June 2017

Yesterday morning when my mother texted me to say there had been another massive earthquake in Christchurch, my heart leapt to my throat. But I genuinely, sincerely didn't think anyone was dead. Last time no one died, right?
And then I got her next message, and the toll was at 65. Disbelief filled my mind and I immediately logged onto Stuff.co.nz when I arrived at work. Unbelievable photos of the wreckage and stories of loss and buildings collapsing, and the spire of the cathedral falling down.
Now it's at 75, with 300 missing and maybe 100 trapped in the CTV building. My heart is breaking for Christchurch and for New Zealand and all I can do is sit and watch the updates on Stuff and follow Twitter and try not to cry at work. It's devastating, and it's affecting me far more than I expected.
Kiwis have the innate ability to just get in and help when help is needed, and the offers of housing, sending of food and supplies and general support everyone is giving each other is amazing. I am so homesick, so confused and just generally mourning for the hundreds we have possibly lost, but I am so proud of New Zealand and its people, and so proud to call myself a Kiwi.
I love you, New Zealand. I miss you and I know you'll pull through this, and if I wasn't so ridiculously broke/in debt, I'd send some money to you.
If you can help, though, I know they'd appreciate it: how to donate.
Edit: A good list of appeal funds here.

Beer Collaboration with Faculty Brewing
Back in December of 2017 Juniper's Bar Manager, Max Borrowman, started a beer collaboration with Faculty Brewing. I'm sure you have heard about them already but if you haven't you should definitely go to their tasting room and try some of their beers. Faculty is into creating experimental beers that are released on Thursdays (Experimental Beer Thursday). These experimental beers can be anything from cool cask, pilots, or just weird fermentation experiments. At Juniper we really like Faculty's beer and thought it would be fun to collaborate with them for one of their experimental beers.
With this beer collaboration between Juniper and Faculty the goal was to create a beer with unique botanical gin flavors unlike any other beer out there. Max Borrowman shared his expertise and insight on gin botanicals and how certain flavour profiles come out through the beer. He and the brewmasters at Faculty Brewing brewed the beer and added during the process juniper berries, cardamom pods, coriander seeds, grapefruit peel, green apple and spruce tip. One could say that the flavour profile is representative of both Juniper and Faculty Brewing. The beer is now available at both locations. Have a taste and let us know what you think!

Hot summer days call for ice cold beers. 🍻 We're serving the Faculty Brewing x Juniper collab brew, the 581 Botanical Ale, on draught.

I feel that eating disorder recovery is a unique experience for every person who struggles with disordered eating. There is no one size fits all approach, no cookie cutter treatment plan to follow and no step by step instruction guide. So many treatment centers and counsellors tend to ignore this fact and treat each case the same. That's where Christina comes in. Her approach is as unique as each individual which allows for each person to truly craft their own approach to recovery. Her attention to detail, her knowledge and her compassion combine together to provide a safe, inviting and effective method of treatment. I never once felt like I was a case number or just a patient, I always felt like a human being who mattered and was valued.
I was a case that was labelled chronic by many doctors and most people gave up on me ever recovering, including myself. With Christina's help and guidance I managed to prove all those people wrong. She never gave up on me and pushed me when I needed pushing, and listened when I needed to be heard. A lot of factors came together for me to recover and it was a long and uphill battle, but fully recovering has allowed me to create a life I never thought I could have. Choosing to leave my eating disorder behind was the hardest thing I have ever done, but it's also been the most incredible experience of my life. No matter how bad or far gone an eating disorder is, there is hope for recovery. I truly wouldn't be alive without Christina's help and I owe her my life. She helped me get through the darkest times of my disorder, always going above and beyond what was required of her to ensure that I was safe. Her treatment is unique and as far as I am concerned, much more effective than any traditional based treatment plan. Recovery is absolutely incredible and I'm so thankful that I made it to the other side when so many people don't. Don't give up hope, things can always get better.

Health Tooth Tips
|Wipe your baby's gums with a wet washcloth after feeding especially before bed
|Avoid putting your baby to bed with a bottle
|Start brushing 2x/day with a soft bristled toothbrush once the first tooth appears
|Start flossing 1x/day any teeth that are touching — it's easier than you think!
|Choose water instead of juice or soda
|Limit between meal snacking, especially on sugary or sticky foods
|Choose xylitol (gum, mints, candy, wipes, or gel)
|Team brushing & flossing until age 7 (being able to tie their own shoes is a good indication independent brushing)
What Causes Cavities
The main culprit behind tooth decay is bacteria a.k.a "sugar bugs!" Feeding bacteria more than 3-4x their favorite food of carbohydrates (both healthy and unhealthy—bacteria do not discriminate) will allow the bacteria to produce acid that will break down your teeth.
|Healthy Tooth
These bacteria can be passed on to others through saliva just like cold germs can!
Please don't share cups, forks, spoons, or toothbrushes to avoid getting more bacteria.

|Windows 10 Mobile Update models and how to install It
Microsoft has made available Windows Phone smartphone users the latest version of its mobile Windows 10 system. However not all will have the chance to benefit. Some models have been set aside to preserve a good user experience as the editor.
So the lucky ones have the opportunity to give a facelift to their smartphone in the best conditions if one believes Microsoft. But how do you do exactly? Some preliminary measures may be necessary even if the installation application help is available to assist users.
So the lucky ones have the opportunity to give a facelift to their smartphone in the best conditions if one believes Microsoft. But how do you do exactly? Some preliminary measures may be necessary even if the installation application help is available to assist users.
Compatible models for Windows 10 Mobile Update
Most models of the list provided by Microsoft are logically Lumia. For some it is a clear statement "1 GB" when a declination with a lower memory amount was also for sale. There are also three models of other manufacturers.
Lumia 1520
Lumia 930
Lumia 640 & 640XL
Lumia 730
Lumia 735
Lumia 830
Lumia 532
Lumia 535
Lumia 540
Lumia 635 1GB
Lumia 636 1GB
Lumia 638 1GB
Lumia 430
Lumia 435
BLU Win HD w510u
BLU Win HD LTE x150q
CJD Madosma Q501
The others had reason for hope in light of statements by Microsoft, who wanted Windows 10 issue all mobile Lumia. It will eventually be the case even if it is not clear that this is a definitive list. They console themselves however with the preview version of mobile Windows 10, most widely distributed, but the possibility of using it would be temporary.
Preparing your mobile for Windows 10 Mobile Update
Before you get down to those who want to start should, however, take some time to secure processes and optimize their chances of success and avoid unexpected bugs. Some prior actions could help them.
We must first take the time to do some cleaning on the smartphone. This may involve removing unnecessary applications or checking the latest updates available. It is especially necessary to free up disk space by deleting unnecessary files in the memory such as music or photos. In all cases, the backup on a computer will prevent any risk losses in case of problems.
Moreover the update of a complete system, even for smartphone requires downloading a large amount of data and use a lot of resources. We must therefore ensure connection to a wireless network of the highest quality and ensure you charge the battery to its maximum. An open process could seriously cut energy plant the device.
Upgrade advice for Windows 10 Mobile Update
Microsoft has made available an application that features with the help of an assistant to check any compatibility issues or blocking situations. Upgrade Advisor is available for download, a simple search in the Windows Store makes finding the plug.
After downloading and installing the application checks if the phone is indeed eligible. It also checks whether the disk space is sufficient and may propose to transfer content to onedrive or SD card if the phone has the ability.
Finally the application ensures that the mobile asset uses the latest version of Windows Phone 8.1, a prerequisite for moving to Windows 10 mobile and offers the user to check a box to indicate his wish to perform the update. After this process the update is triggered conventionally via the phone settings to the "Update the phone."
Subscribers to the Insider program that already use a mobile version of Windows 10 can simply go through the updates to get the latest version. This includes those with unlisted compatible smartphone, but it will probably not install new Preview of Redstone branch.
Twitter generalizes the "best tweets" and ends TweetDeck
It is done. No matter scolds users, Twitter has decided to extend the implementation of its algorithm to classify the tweet instead of the reverse chronological order. Since March 15, and as reported by some users, accounts begin to be messed up. Twitter, quoted by The Next Web, subsequently confirmed the information. Do not be surprised if your timeline is more frankly the same in the coming days.
This new arrangement will be enabled by default, but it is fortunately possible to go back if this does not suit you. Just go to the Twitter settings. In the "Account" tab, then the chapter "content," and finally "over", it will uncheck "Show me the best tweets first." Everything will be fine, and you will find your good old reverse chronological thread.
The end of the support TweetDeck
This is not the only change announced by the social network: the killing of the TweetDeck application for Windows (Mac OS is a priori not concerned for the moment) will be held on April 15th. From that date, the software will no longer officially supported by the firm. That said, it should continue to function normally if it is already installed (but this remains to be confirmed), it will however not expect new updates.
To enjoy the new and future features, it will be imperative to go through the web interface monitoring shall always assured. It will not also need to connect to TweetDeck, Twitter and more "classic" both are now unified. This will avoid having to log in again if you want to use another service like Twitter statistics for example.
iPhone SE finally an identical design to the iPhone 5S
It is in the old pots that one makes perfect ... According to a colleague very well informed at 9to5Mac, the future iPhone (5) SE which should be unveiled on March 21 could resume Design iPhone 5S identically. An ad against the foot of the previous rumors. Indeed, until now the noise corridor rather indicated a design similar to the iPhone 6S but for a more competitive price of around 450 dollars.
Relating to technical characteristics, it would have a 4-inch screen with a resolution of 1136 x 640 pixels, an A9 processor supported by an M9 chip that manages the "Hey Siri" Apple Pay NFC and a 12-megapixel camera with Live Photos. Finally, we would find 16 to 64 GB of internal storage.
Anyway, it only remains to wait a long time since the conference will take place next Monday. Still, if it turned out, this is good news for all owners of accessories that can be recycled shell, car holder etc.

Unlimited shop wizard
When you are on a quest and you can't find the item the faerie wants and nobody will do a search for you it becomes frustrating.One way is to use the shop wizard and do a quest at the same time: When you get onto neopets and you see the welcome screen go straight to the shop wizard ant then minimize the page. Keep the wizard page minimized and then type neopets in your address bar again and do your normal routine. When you get a quest don't use the shop wizard on the maximized page, but use the one you minimized. And whatever you do DON'T refresh the minimized page.
Quick item finding methods
If you get a quest that no one will help you with then here is an easy way. Just log out of the account that you got the quest in and create a new account. When you make that new account you don't need to play any games to get neopoints, just go to the shop wizard and search for the item you need. Then Ctrl+C (highlight the text first) the name of the user that is selling the item for the third lowest price, otherwise when you go into your other account and look the shop up the item will more than likely be sold. This is why I suggest the third lowest or whatever you think will work. Then make sure the username is copied and login to your account with the quest. Paste, Ctrl+V, the name of the user in the search engine and go into their shop and buy the item you need for your quest

Benefits of Coffee for Diet, Fact or Myth
A number of studies claim the existence of the effectiveness of the coffee to the diet. Mentioned, the caffeine content in coffee can increase the rate of metabolism and fat burning. However, is it true that coffee is effective for dieting and weight loss? Refer to the fact that in the reviews here!
There are a variety of coffee products for diets that are circulating on the market; one that is popular is the extract of green coffee beans that are believed to be effective for weight loss. A number of studies also support the claims. However, before taking any further, understand and consider carefully between the benefits and side effects of consuming coffee to diet.
There are a number of active substances on the coffee can affect metabolism, among others:
1. Theo bromine and teofilin, a substance related to caffeine can also have the effect of stimulant.
2. Caffeine, a central nervous system stimulant.
3. Compound is the most widely known of these three substances above is caffeine, because this is the most powerful compounds and also the most studied. Caffeine is known to help move fat from body fat tissue, so that the fat can be used as the fatty acids in the blood.
4. Klorogenat Acid, one of the biological active compounds in coffee that can help slows down the process of absorption of carbohydrates.
A study also shows that in the short term, caffeine can increase the rate of body metabolism and increase fat burning. In this regard, caffeine increases energy use, even when you are resting. Caffeine also stimulates the thermo genesis process of occurrence, the body's way of generating heat and energy from digesting food. In addition, caffeine can also decrease appetite even though for a short time.
In fact, there is no evidence that consuming caffeine can help you lose weight in the long term. This is because the body can tolerate the effects of caffeine. When the body becomes tolerant to caffeine, then the effect will not be the same as when the first coffee. Not to mention if the coffee you brewed plus sugar, cream, or artificial sweetener that will actually increase the calories you consume.
The effects of coffee on the diet are hard to find in people who are already obese. The effect is also influenced by the age factor. The younger the age, the less caffeine will affect the digestive metabolism.
Caffeine may be able to help lose weight and prevent weight increased, but there has been no research that really proves that coffee consumption can lose weight significantly or permanently.
Some studies that examine the link between caffeine and weight loss are more common in animal experiments, so it is doubtful to equalize the results in humans. Several studies that have been done on humans show that coffee can lose weight, but only slightly. To assess the efficacy and safety of coffee products for the diet, further research is still needed.
A number of other studies show that even with high doses of caffeine consumption, weight loss results are also less significant. So, be careful when taking coffee to the diet. Note your daily caffeine intake from coffee, tea, sodas, energy drinks, and other foods and drinks containing caffeine. Make sure not to exceed the recommended dose, i.e. 400 milligrams per day.
Maximum caffeine consumption is as much as 150 milligrams per day divided into at least three doses. One cup of coffee usually contains 50-200 milligrams of caffeine, depending on the way of brewing and the type of coffee.
Too much intake of caffeine can cause insomnia, nausea, increased blood pressure, stomach pain, rapid heart rate, frequent urination, and restless. Keep in mind also, caffeine is not advised for people with certain clinical conditions, such as diabetes, glaucoma, high blood pressure, or osteoporosis, as well as for pregnant women and nursing mothers.
Coffee can interact with many drugs, ranging from a cure for heart problems, bone disorders, lung disease, menopause, and medications to treat mental health problems, such as depression and schizophrenia. Therefore, we recommend that you consult a doctor first before deciding on taking coffee to the diet.
Given the effectiveness of coffee products for a diet that has not been proven effective and safe, better focus you on healthy ways of weight loss. You can apply a healthy diet with balanced nutrition, do not miss breakfast, drink plenty of water, consumption of foods high in fiber such as fruits and vegetables, and no less important is diligent exercise. Also avoid fatty foods, processed foods, and limit alcoholic beverages
