Sugar and sagging skin
Research shows an excessive level of sugar is the leading cause of wrinkles, sagging skin and a loss of skin radiance.
"Sugar hastens the degradation of elastin and collagen, both key skin proteins," according to Dr Fredric Brandt, a leading American dermatologist.
In the 1990s scientists established the link between premature skin ageing and eating excessive amounts of sugar.
Sugar molecules attach themselves to collagen and elastin in a process called glycation. This causes the protein molecules in your skin to become stiff and makes it difficult for skin cells to repair.
They form advanced glycation end products called AGEs and skin tissue then loses its plump elasticity and youthfulness. This is further aggravated by sun damage or cigarette smoking.
When the Australian Bureau of Statistics estimated last year that each Australian consumed 43.4kg of sugar each year, compared with the world average of 21kg it became obvious that Australians were probably ageing faster than the rest of the world.
Physically active people in their 20s and 30s have a better chance of "burning off" the harmful effects of glycation than those of sedentary people over 40.
Detox diets where sugar is eliminated usually result in better energy levels and improved skin tone - high levels of sugar create fatigue and decrease skin repair.
Our dietary dilemma is compounded by the fact that all carbohydrates, whether from sugar, fruit, vegetables, cereal grains, nuts, seeds, pulses or alcohol convert to sugars in our digestive systems.
The best way to control sugars is to focus on avoiding refined sugar and carbohydrate products and concentrate on slowing the digestion of complex carbohydrates such as vegetables, wholegrains, raw nuts and seeds and fruit.
Sadly, sugars are hidden in a huge variety of foods - breakfast cereals, white bread, flavoured yoghurt, tomato sauce, sports drinks and muesli bars, to name a few.
Green tea, pomegranates, vitamin C and vitamin A, coenzyme Q10, cold-pressed oils and evening primrose oil help to repair skin.

Hello everyone!
Thanks for coming to my world. 🙂
I was born in China and I'm based in Switzerland now. I've got my bachelor's degree in China, majoring in English-Chinese translation and interpretation and my master's degree majoring in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) in the UK.
As I've mentioned in the front page, traveling and cooking are my passions and now I'm happy to share them with you. 🙂 I also love making friends and talking about my experiences. I've always wanted to go somewhere for some reason, and after I've been there, I realize there are far more reasons than I expected and there will be more reasons to go again. 🙂 I know a lot of you share the same passion as me, and if there's any chance you wanna go to the place I've been to, I'm more than happy to give you suggestions or my opinions. 🙂
Chinese (mandarin) is my mother tongue and I speak good English. Ich spreche auch ein bisschen Deutsch. 🙂
All in all, I'm excited to introduce you to my world and I'm looking forward to hearing from you. 🙂

A first-year college student with a helping hand looks forward to a lifetime of giving back. She volunteers, but hopes to make contributions in the medical field in the future.
While tackling prerequisites for the nursing program at Pierce College, Circle K Club member Emily Dang devotes her time to social events that serve the campus and surrounding community.
Dang, 18, is majoring in nursing with an emphasis in midwifery training.
"A majority of my family went into nursing, and that kind of clicked with me," Dang said. "When I heard there was a specific major for midwives, I was like, 'Yes. This is for me.'"
Dang said her inspiration to pursue midwifery stems from her babysitting background.
"Kids are so much fun," Dang said. "They have a different outlook on everything, and it opens up your eyes to see what they see."
Dang said her decision to major in nursing is representative of her love to give back as a volunteer.
Before Dang signed up to Circle K, she dedicated her high school career to volunteer work. She joined Key Club, a variant of Circle K, her freshman year, which sparked her passion for giving back to the community. Through that experience, she had an interest to join Circle K while pursuing her studies at Pierce College.
Dang said Circle K is a community service, social and leadership club. Their motto is "fellowship, leadership and service."
"We know we are small, but we do make a major impact, whether it's on the Pierce Campus or around our entire community," Dang said. "No impact is too small. It's big to us. Knowing that we made at least one person happy is amazing."
Dang said her goal as a volunteer is to make other people happy.
"If you have a positive attitude, everybody else has a positive attitude," Dang said. "Being that one good spirit, outgoing person can create a chain reaction for other people."
Circle K Club President James Cortes has known Dang since high school. They've known each other for four years and shared the same interest in volunteer work during their time in Key Club at El Camino Real High School.
"It was really fun," Cortes said. "When you do work with people people you are comfortable with, it doesn't really feel like work."
Community Welfare Committee Chair and Associated Student Organization (ASO) Senator Gisela Tarifa worked with Dang at the Halloween Costume Drive on campus, where volunteers provided college students with costumes and props to make their Halloween a special occasion.
Tarifa said that she enjoyed Dang's presence at the event.
"My first impression of Emily is that she was a very sweet girl, and she was very funny," Tarifa said. "She was really helpful, and wanted to help in any way that she could."
Tarifa said Dang contributed to the costume drive by donating items for students.
"She brought two fairy stars and a viking hat," Tarifa said. "It attracted people to the booth."
Tarifa said that Dang successfully explained information to curious students.
"She was so good at communicating to the students and getting them interested in what we were presenting," Tarifa said.
Cortes said he thinks Dang could fulfill the Membership Development Education Position because he said he is confident in her abilities as a leader.
"She's very sure of herself and confident," Cortes said. "If she wants something, she goes for it."
Cortes said her approachability is an asset to the club.
"She's not an intimidating person, and she's easy to talk to," Cortes said. "She is a natural leader. People gravitate toward her if they have questions."
Cortes said Dang has a lot to offer to the community.
"I do firmly believe that she helps inspire people to attend events because she is good at socializing," Cortes said. "She has a feel for service, and she is a great motivator."
In a phone interview, Kyle Dang, 17, Emily Dang's brother said he observed his sister's sense of leadership from an early age.
"I really look at her as a role model because of her outgoing and easy-to-talk-to personality," Kyle Dang said. "She makes me want to be as social as she is."
Kyle Dang said he took an interest in volunteering after witnessing his sister's contributions within Key Club.
"If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have been introduced to volunteering," Kyle Dang said. "Because of her, I became an officer for Key Club."
Kyle Dang said he plans to follow in his sister's footsteps and join Circle K after high school.
According to Emily Dang, Circle K makes her feel at home.
"You don't notice the small impacts and big impacts you make during events, but when you see it all gathered up, I am proud of myself. I'm proud of my club and I'm proud of my division," Emily Dang said.

We really wanted to have lunch at Tokara Delicatessen. We completely underestimated just how popular it is. Luckily, a perennial favourite of ours was close at hand to help Chantelle get over her disappointment.
There is a reason that I feature Hillcrest Berry Orchards so much on this blog – they have by far the best combination of scones, devonshire clotted cream, coffee, and location.
Love it. (And their jams of course).
[subvertedgallery link="file" columns="7″ ids="52486,52487,52488,52489,52490,52491,52492,52493,52494,52495,52496,52497,52498,52499,52500,52501,52502,52503,52504,52505,52506,52507,52508,52509″]
(P.S. Lesson learned, the next time we headed out to Tokara we actually booked!)

Scones and Cream at Hillcrest Berry Orchards in Banhoek Valley (2017-08-13) Food and Drink | Photo Gallery 29 JAN 2018
Having spent most of our Sunday enjoying a drive, admiring the Huguenot Monument, and letting the kids run wild and free at the Station Pub & Grill in Franschhoek, we then wrapped up the outing with a stop at Hillcrest Berry Orchard (at the behest of BOTH Chantelle and the girls!) on the drive back.
If you've been reading my blog for a long time then you know that we end up stopping here more often than not whenever we find ourselves driving along the R310, better known as the Helshoogte road, through the beautiful Banhoek Valley (which lies on the outskirts of Stellenbosch on your way through Pniel and on to Franschhoek).
If that is the case, then you undoubtedly already know about the fantastic jams and other berry-rich products that Hillcrest Berries produces, not to mention the good, uplifting work opportunities it provides in the immediate area.
If you know about those, then you probably also know that the Tea Garden and its deck with a view is a great option for some good coffee and scones, and furthermore, as a long time reader you would probably then also know that paying a little more for the Devonshire clotted cream REALLY is the way to go.
Unless of course they don't have any more left for the day, meaning then that your foodie wife is nearly brought to tears with disappointment.
[subvertedgallery link="file" columns="7″ ids="47155,47156,47157,47158,47159,47160,47161,47162,47163,47164,47165,47166,47167,47168,47169,47170,47171,47172,47173,47174,47175,47176,47177,47178,47179,47180,47181,47182,47183,47184,47185″]
Still, it was a very nice enough stop as always – even if they had already run out of clotted cream for the day.

Jam and Scones at Hillcrest Berry Orchards in the Banhoek Valley (2017-04-22) Food and Drink | Photo Gallery 24 NOV 2017
It is nowadays quite impossible for me to travel the road from Stellenbosch, past Pniel and on towards Franschhoek without it being requested that I stop for scones and cream at Hillcrest Berry Orchards by young Jessica.
(Not that I mind though – a visit to Hillcrest Berries, on the outskirts of Stellenbosch, is always quite pleasant!)
While you can sit and dine in the remarkably popular restaurant/tea room if the weather doesn't play along, it is by far the best to grab a spot on their terrace, with its beautiful views over the Banhoek Valley.
You'll be rewarded with some crisp fresh air and some particularly pretty scenery to look at.
Primarily a producer of a wide selection of fine jams from the assortment of berries grown on the working berry farm, a visit to Hillcrest Berry Orchards is definitely defined by tucking into their scones, first choosing the jams to accompany and then deciding on what to round it off with.
Pro Tip: the Devonshire Clotted Cream is the MUST go to option, no question about it!
The atmosphere is relaxed (though on this particular visit there was a gaggle of girls celebrating someone's 16th birthday, which on its own made for a very entertaining watch – so much posing and so, so many selfies!), the scones, jam and coffee great, and the view is fantastic.
Hard to argue against visiting this great little business that coincidentally also does so much good in its local community then.
[subvertedgallery link="file" columns="7″ ids="47188,47189,47190,47191,47192,47193,47194,47195,47196,47197,47198,47199,47200,47201,47202,47203,47204,47205,47206,47207,47208,47209,47210,47211,47212,47213,47214,47215,47216,47217″]
Oh, and they even have a couple of weekend away guest cottages for rent available these days – just in case you're looking for a bit of a Banhoek Valley/Stellenbosch getaway.
(Bonus: You'll note the sad face photo of Jessica towards the bottom of the photo gallery. It was just me and the girls on one of our days out and about and unfortunately for Jess, it was a bit of a knee meet cement slab moment.)

Scones, Cream and Jam at Hillcrest Berry Orchards in Stellenbosch (2017-03-05) Food and Drink | Photo Gallery 09 APR 2017
As you drive through the Banhoek Valley on your way to Franschhoek, just before Pniel you'll encounter an insignificant little entrance marked with a small signboard for Hillcrest Berry Orchards.
This so happens to be an old favourite of Chantelle's, and we are almost always guaranteed to pull over for a quick coffee stop every time we find ourselves driving along this particular route!
Hillcrest Berry Orchards is as the name suggests, a farm known for growing a lot of varied, good quality berries. They are perhaps even more known for the wonderful jams that they produce from all these berries, though we know them almost exclusively for their wonderful little restaurant and tea garden setup – with the tables along the porch giving one an absolutely stunning view across the beautiful Banhoek Valley landscape.
The scones there are particular favourites of ours, though you must be sure to select the option with the Devonshire clotted cream! It is always great fun selecting something new to try among their large selection of jams, and from the look of things, our girls might be growing up to appreciate the scones too!
This particular outing happened as part of a fairly lengthy early March Sunday afternoon drive for the four of us – first lunch at Eaglevlei outside Stellenbosch, then play time at The Carnival on the Weltevreden Estate, followed by a drive through Franschhoek, over the pass and on to Theewaterskloof Dam, before heading through the picturesque Viljoen's pass to reach Grabouw, before finally shooting back home via Sir Lowry's Pass!
(No sir, no messing about for us when it comes to lazy Sunday afternoon drives! :P)
[subvertedgallery link="file" columns="7″ ids="44239,44240,44241,44242,44243,44244,44245,44246,44247,44248,44249,44250,44251,44252,44253,44254,44255,44256″]
Anyway, it really is a lovely little late afternoon spot to stop for coffee, well made scones and some particularly delicious jams.

With Meditation I had this on-off-relationship for years. Sometimes I took it more seriously and sometimes less. I'm talking about my own regular home practice, not about attending a Yoga class or going to a one-time event.
You know how it is. Life comes in between and we lose track easily. Even as a Yoga teacher on Ibiza this happens.
Finally I got back into it again. And I wanted to share two really amazing Apps that makes it so much easier to get started and/or to keep going.
Both apps are free, but they have some special features you'd have to pay for if you want them. But the free version of both is already incredible.
Insight Timer
In this app you can find anything. There are so many different guided meditations from so many different meditation teachers. There is also just meditation music; or you can also just set a timer and do your own meditation.
If you sign up and get the unlimited version you can also do courses, create playlists etc. But the free version already has such a huuuuuge offer that you'll probably never can do them all!
This is an amazing way to get into meditation if you start from zero and if you are not quite into anything "spiritual" or "esoteric". The explanations, instructions and the illustrations are so down to earth, so easy to understand and incredibly cute that you will want to do the whole 10 day course right away.
You will really get the picture and the benefits of meditation.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, too!
Get the apps, try them out and let me know how it's going for you!

I read a blog post last week written by a fairly successful self-published author who said, outright and clearly, for everyone to hear, "It doesn't matter if you're good, what matters is that you're marketable." The basis of her argument is that lots of good books fail, and lots of bad books not only get published but hit the bestseller lists. Right now, you're thinking of at least one example of a terrible book that hit huge and whose author is sitting on a beach sipping Mai Tais right now, and on the tail end of that thought, a secret voice in the back of your head is saying, "Why bother?"
This is an interesting thought, and one I've come back to a number of times. After all, I've struggled with becoming a better writer since the day I started writing. I took classes and practiced and read books and paid attention to my craft. I suffered and fixed and worked and learned, and then I started teaching. So understand that, as I write this, if being good doesn't matter, then I've wasted a lot of time and energy, and should probably find a new job.
But here's why I think it does matter; because quality always matters. Can you get published being a horrible writer? Well, sure. Happens all the time, every day. Can a horrible writer be a huge success? See the answer to the first question. But I think the jump from this raw data to, "It doesn't matter," is a big one, and fraught with many dangers, because it presupposes that the only thing that does matter is getting (traditionally) published, or being a huge bestseller (either through the Big Six or on one's own.)
Being good matters for a number of reasons. If you want to be pragmatic about it, you can say that success is a strike of lightning and the better you are when that lightning strikes, the more likely you are to hold onto and build your audience, and I do believe that's true. But let's forget pragmatism. Let's forget money and success and the validation of having one of the Big Six say yes.
Let's talk about what really matters. Let's talk about the story. If you write, you've been called to write, and that's sacred. It's not about money and success and fame—much of which most writers, good or bad, never see to any measurable standard. It's about being the best you can be at what you do.
It's about the work. Money, success, fame… that's all well and good, but the reason most of us want those things is because of how it affects how others see us, not how we see ourselves. In the end, I want to be able to respect my work, flawed as it will always be, as the best I could do at the time I did it. Yes, I would love to have more money, more security, because chasing your passion professionally is the world's least secure way to make a living, but more than that, I want to know I did good. I want to know that my work is solid, and improving. I want to know that I took my calling seriously, that I treated it as the sacred thing it is, and that I moved forward into that space with purity of heart and intention.
My primary goal isn't to get published; it's to tell the absolute best story I can, and then move on to tell an even better one. So while security matters to me, and validation matters a great deal to a lot of writers, when it comes down to it, I think that being the best writer you can be matters more.
And I'm gonna stand by that.

Strengthening Feasibility Studies for Inclusionary Housing Policies
Paired with other public investments and financing products, inclusionary zoning policies can increase the supply of affordable housing, particularly in high-cost regions.
Inclusionary policies work by requiring or offering incentives to developers to include below-market-rate (BMR) units in new housing developments, or pay a fee to an affordable housing fund in the city's budget. These policies also can include offsets to developers, such as density bonuses or permitting streamlining. As Grounded Solutions Network and Lincoln Land Institute identified in a recent study, over 800 jurisdictions in the United States currently have inclusionary zoning programs.
Yet these policies can be controversial, and require a sensitivity and responsiveness to market economic conditions to ensure that inclusionary policies maximize the number of affordable units without yielding negative impacts on the production of new housing.
To determine what inclusionary ratios can achieve policy goals while working with the costs of building (meaning a project would still pass an acceptable "hurdle rate" for profit), cities often undergo feasibility studies to identify the economic conditions that typical projects face. But no agreed-upon set of professional best practices exists for these studies, and there is criticism that the studies can be expensive, time-intensive, and don't necessarily capture the "real-time" insights into market conditions that cities need for optimal decision-making.
This summer, the Terner Center, Grounded Solutions Network, and the Lincoln Land Institute convened a group of stakeholders for an exploration of the current and prospective "best" practices in feasibility study methodology. We brought together consultants who produce feasibility studies, academic researchers who study housing economics, and nonprofits and public agencies who commission and use the studies.
A full report and summary of these conversations are now available on Grounded Solutions Network's inclusionary housing website.
For the most part, it is clear that there is currently a great diversity in feasibility study methodology and metrics, and no single approach is considered standard or best practice. Participants agreed that this is justifiable in part because methodologies should reflect the real, specific circumstances of a market--and often its submarkets.
Yet, the convening participants did agree that feasibility studies should be transparent in their documentation and should be, as much as possible, replicable. They also agreed that, too often, feasibility studies are taken as a red or green light for inclusionary zoning, whereas the studies should be treated more as one element in determining which policies are best-suited to increasing housing affordability in a city. Finally, the convening also made clear that there is appetite for new online resources--like the Terner Center's housing development dashboard or Grounded Solutions Network's Inclusionary Housing Calculator--that offer accessible and transparent tools to help cities and decision-makers better understand and fine-tune the impacts of inclusionary zoning policies in the context of their local markets.
Overall, this new report represents a step towards providing the necessary resources and documentation to improve feasibility studies and, more importantly, the inclusionary policies that they help to calibrate.
Announcing New Resources for Understanding Land Use in California
Local land use--the accumulated set of decisions and policies about whether, how, and what we build--is a current that runs throughout much of our work here at the Terner Center. Land use policy not only shapes the supply of housing in a region, but is also deeply intertwined with sustainability, economic mobility, and access to neighborhoods and opportunity. Made possible by funding from the Department of Housing and Community Development, in 2017 the Terner Center launched a survey of planners across the state to learn more about local land use policy contexts in California. Today we are delighted to release…

Full name: Matthias Sindelar
Date of birth: 10 February 1903
Place of birth: Kozlov, Austria-Hungary
Date of death: 23 January 1939 (aged 35)
Place of death: Vienna, Nazi Germany
Height: 1.75 m (5 ft 9 in)
Playing position: Centre-forward
Matthias Sindelar was an Austrian footballer,
He played centre-forward. Known as "The Mozart of football" or 'Der Papierene' – 'the Paper-man' for his slight build, he was renowned as one of the finest pre-war footballers, known for his fantastic dribbling ability, ball control and creativity.
He was voted the best Austrian footballer of the 20th Century in a 1999 poll by the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) and was named Austria's sportsman of the century a year before.
Despite occasional claims that Sindelar was of Jewish origin, the family was Catholic. They moved to Vienna in 1905 and settled in the district of Favoriten, which had a large Czech-speaking community. Here young Matthias began playing football in the streets of Vienna. At the age of 15, he joined Hertha Vienna, playing there until 1924, when he was brought to FK Austria Vienna, whose name at the time was Wiener Amateur-SV and he played there 15 years becoming a legend of the club.
Always refusing to leave his home country, Sindelar rejected to play for Germany after the Austrian state was annexed by Nazi Germany in 1938, citing old age or injury as his excuse. On 23 January 1939 both Sindelar and his girlfriend Camilla Castagnola were found dead at the apartment they shared in Vienna; the official verdict cited carbon monoxide poisoning as the cause....

Eastview Development, GTIS Partners Break Ground on 51-Story Miami Condo Tower
- By
- Jun 04, 2014
A 51-story condominium tower will soon begin to sprout along Biscayne Bay, as Eastview Development and GTIS Partners break ground today on Biscayne Beach. The project will bring 399 luxury residences to condo-hungry Miami's Edgewater East neighborhood.
As is the case with any successful real estate project, it's all about location, and Biscayne Beach ticks that all-important box.
"East Edgewater is one of Miami's last prominent waterfront neighborhoods to come into its own," Reid Boren, a partner with Eastview, told Commercial Property Executive. "It's one of the fastest-emerging neighborhoods, right on the water, with spectacular views of Biscayne Bay."
Carrying the address of 711 N.E. 29th St., the WHLC Architecture-designed residential high-rise will sit on a 2.8-acre site within close proximity of Miami's central business district, and adjacent to Midtown and the Design District.
"Downtown has started to migrate and East Edgewater will be a beautiful neighborhood, close to ballet and Broadway performances at the Adrienne Arsht Center, Miami Heat basketball games at American Airlines Arena, and gourmet restaurants, including the one we'll be announcing [today]," Boren added.
Eastview and GTIS expect that Biscayne Beach, which will feature such high-end amenities as a private members-only Beach Club, will be high on the radar of both domestic and foreign buyers in search of upscale beachfront accommodations in an increasingly international metropolis. Indeed, demand in Miami's luxury condominium market is on the rise. The numbers tell the story. According to a first quarter report by Douglas Elliman Real Estate, luxury condo price indicators in Miami increased sharply year over year, with the average sales price jumping 17.2 percent.
The price tag on residences at Biscayne Beach range from the $400,000's to a tidy $9 million for penthouses. The project is on schedule to reach completion in 2016.

Good (Small Business) Saturday morning to everyone!! I sure hope you all have enjoyed this week and your Thanksgiving if you chose to celebrate. I thought it would be fun to recap the week leading up to Thanksgiving day.
I only took a photo of our dinner on Monday, which was baked Tandur Indian-spiced salmon, roasted broccoli and cauliflower, and Annie's boxed GF mac 'n cheese. Thankfully, the rice pasta held together and actually tasted the way it is supposed to. Score!
I made each a sweet and savory slice of toast for 'Toast Tuesday': pan-sauteed spinach with an over easy egg / pb, banana, raisins, and cinnamon.
Lunch was leftover lentils, roasted broccoli and cauliflower, roasted tahini carrots, and mac 'n cheese.
Dinner was amazing! A bed of sautéed peppers, onion, mushrooms and garlic seasoned with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper then topped with TJ's siracha tofu cooked in the same pan. Freshly shredded cheddar, avocado, salsa, Geek yogurt, cucumber, and tortilla chips. So much flavor, color, and texture on the plate!
I went ahead and made our dessert for Thanksgiving using Erin's Apple Carrot Muffins with Oatmeal recipe. They are so soft, flavorful, and perfect!
I enjoyed one with Erin's golden latte. The perfect end to the day.
Would you just look at that color. A thing of beauty I tell ya! I used another one of Erin's recipes as a guide in making my beet smoothie. I eyeballed TJ's frozen cooked beets, Dole watermelon/banana/coconut/strawberry/pineapple mix, Greek yogurt, milk, ground ginger, and manuka honey. Topped with Kashi Cinnamon Harvest Shredded Wheat, oats, chia, and NuttZo.
Outfit for my work day. I've had this Old Navy chunky cardigan for I believe nine or more years. It's one of my favorites!
Dinner was leftover salmon and roasted broccoli and cauliflower plus seasoned freshly roasted butternut squash. I made the squash while I baked my grandmother's cornbread dressing. I also made Alexis' Orange Bourbon Cranberry Sauce and Baked Pumpkin Hummus Dip with Rosemary Whipped Goat Cheese and Pomegranate.
Thursday // Thanksgiving Day
I started the day with delicious oatmeal made from chopping old fashioned oats and cooking them with milk, ground flax, and chia. I topped my bowl with warmed Wyman's cherry/berry/plum/cacao nib mix, brown sugar, and pb. This is one of my very favorite frozen fruit blends!
Matt agreed to complete a 30-minute Barre3 online workout with me!! It was a very tough one that I've done at least twice before, but he stuck with it. I intend to get us to do more together.
Lunch was spinach topped with warmed leftover lentils/carrots/butternut squash, TJ's cauliflower tabbouleh, and mac 'n cheese.
As I said on Instagram, Martha Stewart, eat your heart out. I have to say I was really proud of our bird! We stuffed the cavity with a softened onion and honeycrip apple then rubbed under and on top of the skin with fresh herbs mixed into butter.
My chosen outfit. I decided to wear my "new" sueded top from Planet Xchange. One of my many favorite purchases from them!
Goofy Snapchat while we got gas.
Selfie trio.
Two of the three Daniel boys.
Once we snapped our photos, it was time to get down to business on those appeteasers. The dip all baked and ready to be enjoyed with TJ's beet crackers.
Creamy, dreamy delicious. Are you team goat cheese? I sure am!
My plate, which perfectly hit the spot.
His mom made delicious sautéed Brussels sprouts and baked acorn squash.
The best! Cornbread dressing, cranberry sauce, acorn squash, turkey and gravy (Matt made it from scratch, and it was such perfection), carrot apple salad, Brussels sprouts, green bean casserole, and TJ's bagged Brussels sauté with hazelnuts, parm, and lemon vinaigrette. I tried a bite of yams and Diane's homemade mashed potatoes too.
Matt kindly went on a walk with me, and the moon was incredibly bright and huge. Things had felt off on Wednesday, and then I knew why! Also, Matt is the MVP. He told me to put the ole turkey in a dish to thaw, but I was stubborn. Wouldn't you know it – juices flowith all down the bottom of the fridge. So while I cooked on Thanksgiving Eve, he was busy hosing down the shelf and cleaning out gross raw turkey juice. Husband of the year!
Had to try the Snapchat with my momma-in-law!
Day-sert plate! We sipped on tea first then opened up our dessert stomachs. Muffin, fruit salad, and a few bites of pumpkin pie.
After getting home and unpacked, I enjoyed some more fruit salad over yogurt with NuttZo. We then called it a night. Please share about your holiday!!

Emboldened by the (occasionally) super-sizzling seasonal sunshine fierce panda is slapping on the lotion and lapping up the cocktail potion and putting on a special FREE summer showcase at The Hospital Club in that there Covent Garden on Wednesday July 29th.
This early evening show features appearances by two of the panda's more mellow, mellifluous acts, those acts being the heroically emotive LONGFELLOW and sultry sub-shoegazers MASAKICHI. Admission is strictly by guestlist only, and here are the details heeeere...
The Night: FIERCE PANDA PRESENTS AN EVENING OF MURDEROUS MIDSUMMER FUN
The Acts: LONGFELLOW + MASAKICHI
The Stardate: WEDNESDAY JULY 29TH 2015
The Venue: LONDON COVENT GARDEN THE HOSPITAL CLUB
(24 Endell Street, London WC2H 9HQ)
The Timings: DOORS 6.30PM - SHOW ENDS 9.00PM
The Entry: EMAIL email@example.com FOR THE CHANCE OF FREE GUESTLIST PLACEMENT.
The Truth:
LONGFELLOW (onstage 8.15pm) it was on July 29th 2013 that these lovelorn indie emoters self-released their first ever single, 'Gabrielle', the video for which actually featured frontman Owen emoting in an operating theatre. Continuing the fragile medical theme and celebrating this second anniversary of their debut Longfellow are returning to The Hospital with stories to tell and new songs to spin. Over the past two years the quintet have played SXSW and CMJ, toured with Hall & Oates, released one mini-album and an EP and generally made themselves at home on the nation's airwaves. Indeed, over the past year they have been playlisted by Radio 2 no fewer than three times, the last playlist being in spring for 'Where I Belong' which you can see on YouTube
Next up is a brand new single called 'Choose', which is out on fierce panda on September 4th and is even bigger and even more emotional than anything they've done before, and that's saying something.
MASAKICHI (pronounced MASS-A-KEY-CHEE, onstage 7.15pm) are a seductive new London boy / girl / girl combo who release their debut single 'Hummingbird' on the panda (pronounced PAN-DA) on Friday July 24th, ie not but five days before this show. 'Hummingbird' is released on download and beer mat (yes, beer mat!!!) as part of the panda's rejuvenated singles 'club', and as befits the lowslung Masakichi make-up it sounds powerful and potent with a darkly epic edge. Catch their gently sweeping Spring opus at www.soundcloud.com/masakichiband/spring right now. There's a mightily big mini-album coming on the panda in September, too...

During halftime, an elementary relay race and a shootout competition will be held, with prizes for the top winners.
Tickets will be sold at the door and are $5 for adults and $3 for students and senior citizens. Admission is free for children five and under.

Meanwhile, Dr. Bob Smith, a surgeon in Akron, has been an alcoholic for thirty years, often going into the operating room with a hangover. Both are isolated, alone, and on the brink of death. Through an astonishing series of events, the two men are brought together and, realizing that "the only thing that can keep a drunk sober is telling his story to another drunk," forge a relationship. They help each other stay sober, and then pass on what they've learned to others.

Through soybean checkoff funded research, the development of ink from soy oil 15 years ago was among the first successful new uses for soybeans.
Today, more than 3,000 U.S. newspapers and one-fourth of the nation's 50,000-plus commercial printers use soy ink. But there's a vast potential yet to be tapped. Industry experts predict that when soy ink reaches its full market potential, the printing industry could consume some 457 million pounds of soybean oil per year from 42 million bushels of soybeans.
To increase the number of soy ink users, Karen Andersen, marketing manager for the National Soy Ink Information Center in Des Moines, IA, says her organization is launching a promotion to sell Fortune 500 companies on the benefits of soy ink.
"We see these companies — especially those that recycle — as a good fit for consumers of high-quality, earth-friendly soy ink. If they use soy ink and the soy ink logo, it's an opportunity for high-volume usage and exposure for the soybean industry," says Andersen.
She says packaging is another area with the potential to use soy ink in high volume — and offer large exposure with consumers.
Currently, soy ink isn't used in packaging because package ink is different than that used to print brochures and newspapers. However, Andersen says, development of a soy-based ink suitable for packaging would be an excellent candidate for future checkoff-funded research.
Several other soy ink research projects, many funded with soybean checkoff dollars, are also in progress. They promise new printing applications targeted at a variety of end users. Here's a roundup of some of those soy ink innovations.
Ballpoint pens — With soy inks being successfully used for commercial printing, it makes sense that soy ink would be suitable for ballpoint pens, too. To develop such a product, state soybean checkoff boards in Iowa, Michigan, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin established a research contract with Southwest Texas State University in San Marcos.
Through those efforts, Andersen reports, a ballpoint pen with soy ink has successfully been developed and could be available in a year.
Toner cartridges — Soy-based toner is being developed for copiers, laser printers and other equipment that use dry printing (xerographic) techniques. The soy toner is being developed with soybean checkoff dollars by the Ohio Soybean Council and Battelle, the world's largest independent science and technology institute.
Versatile inks — Ink improvements will include faster drying and ultraviolet-curable products, even a soy ink that can be printed on textiles.
While most of these improvements will serve specialty markets, Andersen says they help broaden the versatility of soy inks as well.
Today, more than 3,000 news-papers in the U.S. are printed primarily using color soy ink — compared to just six in 1987. Well-known newspapers printed with soy ink include: USA Today, Denver Post, Los Angeles Times, Detroit Free Press, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Boston Globe and Washington Times.
At U.S. hospitals, even babies are being introduced to soy ink. A soy ink formulation has been developed for stamping baby footprints onto birth certificates.

UPDATE: Twilight 12 Hour is cancelled for this year due to the updated CDC guidelines regarding COVID-19. If you are registered and did not receive an email, contact Gretchen at firstname.lastname@example.com. We are planning on holding this event next April - look for updates this fall! Until then, everyone stay healthy and thank you for your support!
Why hold a 12 hour night run? Twilight 12 Hour (previously Starlight Overnight) originated from a night run held on a ranch in Utah in 2015. A runner training for Wasatch 100 invited folks to join for some night miles on a 5 mile loop. The goal was to run from 8pm until the early hours of the morning to feel the fatigue of running several miles at night. The only requirement to participate was bringing your favorite aid station food. It was a fun, safe, no pressure way to get night training!
This is not a race but rather a beautiful place to gather as a trail running community. Whether you choose to run under the stars until the sun rises or head down to the campfire early to have a beer and roast some s'mores is up to you. There will be a pancake breakfast in the morning to send you home with smiles on your faces. Camping is free, cabins are discounted, and entry is $30 bucks (family, friends, and past participants talked me into raising the price this year so I am not in the red. Email me for their contact information to complain). PLEASE NOTE: No refunds.
The 2.3ish mile loop has a little bit of everything. From stretches of beautiful single track trail, to short ravines and a creek crossing, to a descent down a gravel road with a steep climb to close the loop, people spread out quickly.
Saturday, 5:00-6:30pm - check-in6:45pm - pre-run briefing7:00pm - run into the sunsetSunday, 7:00am - finish into the sunrise8:30am - breakfast9:30am - Award for King and Queen of Loops (please note: THERE ARE NO OFFICIAL RESULTS)
One request is to bring your favorite aid station food or drink to share which results in the most massive and yummy aid station ever! There will be a sign-up list emailed to participants in March. Then the rest is up to you. There is a full kitchen available for making dinner pre or post run. There will be pancakes, bacon, and coffee served Sunday morning along with leftovers from the aid station goodness (think donuts, fruit, etc.).
For Twilight 12 Hour participants, camping is free. There are bathrooms and showers for all participants. If you'd prefer to have a roof over your head, there are various types of cabins for rent (at a discounted price!). This is a great option for groups since several of the cabins sleep 8. Contact Penny Blackburn, owner of Flying Horseshoe Ranch, for lodging questions - 509-674-2366.

presence in Malaysia. MIDA in particular has been a fundamental in promoting investment
s opportunities, providing
critical linkages to various government and industry counterparts as well as

How you can rent this old rural bank for the night
IT WAS once the scene of a robbery - now you can stay in this beautiful old bank building for the night.
Dubbed "the old Helidon Bank", the building on Railway St in the small town east of Toowoomba has been converted into an Airbnb.
Host Catherine Willans said on the online listing the property was built in the late 19th century before it was converted into a bank in 1923.
"It still has the original vault and door which has now been filled with books, DVDs, games and toys for you to enjoy," she wrote.
"Come and experience life like it was back then, except fortunately we have added some comfy beds, air-con and fridge.
"There was once a bank robbery here so see if you can locate the bullet holes in the roof."
The old bank features two bedrooms with antique furniture, a rumpus room, veranda and high ceilings.
It also includes a TV with a DVD player, but Wi-Fi has not yet been connected.
For more information about the old bank, check out the online listing.

As 39-year-old Binnur Apaydin was being rushed via helicopter to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital last year, she clutched her chest and said to herself, "I'm dying, no more time for me." The Turkish immigrant had gone to see her doctor in Petaluma, complaining of chest and neck pain. He diagnosed her as having a heart attack and told Binnur that a helicopter was her best hope. She resisted leaving and said she just wanted to see her husband and daughter, but the doctor put her in the copter.
In Santa Rosa, they raced Binnur into the operating room, inserted two stents and saved her life. But months into her recovery, Binnur went into a funk. She didn't have much to do, her husband Ozkan Apaydin had lost his job, and, unable to pay their bills, the couple lost both the house they owned in Sacramento and their farm in Turkey.
"The budget was too tight," she says, "everything was upside down." Binnur's doctor said she needed to get more involved with life, and her brother, Serdar Besir, said he'd come to Petaluma to help the Apaydins open a restaurant.
"After the heart attack, I kept having a dream that tomorrow is my last day," Binnur says. "My husband said, 'We have to do something to bring you back to the real world.' My brother, then working as a chef in New York, said, 'Let's open a restaurant.' I said, 'It's crazy, too stressful, but as long as the family is together, OK.'"It wasn't the Apaydins' first foray into the restaurant business. They'd briefly run Real Gyro in Santa Rosa's Stony Point Plaza. But after just six weeks, it closed due to a dispute with the landlord.
Santa Rosa's loss is Petaluma's gain. Real Döner opened last March at the corner of Petaluma Boulevard and D Street, serving authentic Turkish food including döner (a lamb, beef or chicken wrap with tomatoes and cucumbers, the Turkish version of a gyro; $8), meaty kebabs ($9), a red-lentil soup ($3.50) and lahmacun ($3.95), a thin pizza layered with ground beef, tomatoes, onions and paprika.
The decor is basic; diners order at the counter, then the food is brought to the table, either inside the restaurant or on the outdoor patio. The long room is enlivened by a big, brass, 250-year-old shoeshine stand that's been in the family for generations, a towering hookah and a pair of "evil eyes," a blue Turkish emblem said to ward off malevolent spirits.
Two vertical spits slowly turn, one roasting beef and lamb, the other searing chicken. In a rack by the register, Turkish magazines and bags of ground coffee share space with Cheetos, Doritos and Fritos.
There's a bowl of customers' business cards on the counter. Every day, Ozzie, as his friends call him, picks one and gives away a free meal ($10 limit). So, yes, in Petaluma there is such thing as a free lunch.
The refrigerated front counter has such raw skewers ready for grilling as the popular Adana lamb kebab. Atop the counter are heaping platters of desserts: baklava, which Ozzie swears originated in Turkey ($3.95); and the irresistible buibul yuvasi ($2.50), a bird's nest of phyllo dough thinner than angel hair topped with pistachios bits and light syrup.
"I can say we're the best in the Bay Area—we know how to do it; it's a Turkish dessert," Ozzie says. It sounds boastful, but after one bite of the sumptuous pastry, I heartily concur.
"Some people say, 'Sweet is no good for me,' but we broke them down," Ozzie says.
Ozzie's brother-in-law, Serdar Besir, emerges from the kitchen, takes one look at my buibul yuvasi and whisks it away, insisting it has to be hot. He returns after warming it and sets it down with a cup of Turkish coffee ($3.50). Served in little china cups, the coffee evokes memories of Istanbul's cafes, the deep brown brew rich and flavorful with just the right interplay of sweetness and bitterness, with an espresso-like caffeine kick.
"I want to make people happy," Besir says before gesturing toward his brother. "But his goal? It's to make money.""Of course," Ozzie laughs. "I'm the manager."
Ozzie has worked hard for his success. He left a thriving appliance business in Mersin, Turkey, and brought his wife and only child to the United States. in 2000 because Binnur wanted their daughter to get an American education. Cagsar, then eight, is now going into her senior year at Petaluma High.
"She has a good report card," Ozzie says. "I'm very happy." Binnur adds that her daughter now wants to be a doctor, so she can "cure my heart."
After coming to the States, Ozzie worked in a parking garage, for a shuttle company and then drove a taxi for four years. Showing typical immigrant ingenuity, he'd find out when cruise ships were landing, when hotel guests were checking out and when conventions were in town to ensure he'd always have fares.That hunger has paid off at the restaurant. Real Döner has been a hit since its opening day. "For the grand opening, we ran a special: buy one döner, get one free. We had a line that stretched an hour and a half. I was shocked."
Most Americans know what a gyro is, but many have never heard of döner. The Apaydins chose the name because it's Turkish. "American people are so good," Binnur says. "They may not know what döner means, but they give us a chance."
Despite the recession, the Apaydins are doing well. They're not getting rich, but they're getting by, and, most important, Binnur's health is improving. "Working in this restaurant is part of the healing," she says. "My whole family is together—that makes me more strong."
A customer comes to pick up a to-go order and she's about a dollar short. She said she'd run to her ATM, but the Apaydins say, "Don't worry, you can pay next time." That's the kind of place Real Döner is—the owners act as hosts and make the customers feel like family."We don't have fancy tables or lights," Binnur says, "but we do have warm friendship and good food."
The restaurant is open from 10am to 10pm daily, and the cooking starts around 6am. "The bread has to be fresh, the meat has to be right," Binnur says. "We don't open a box and put it on a skewer; we have to find the right spices, so we go to San Francisco. We have to find the right organic tomatoes, not just any organic tomatoes, but good ones. I have to smell it. It's the little details, that's what makes the whole. So, yes, it's a hard job," she says. "But I'm a hard person, and hard things make me more powerful."
The intense work started before the restaurant opened in a building that needed an overhaul. "We fixed the walls, we fixed the ceiling, we put down a new floor. We made a picnic in here and kept working to 1am," Binnur says.
"We fixed this place. And this place has fixed my heart."

This was an Awesome GAME! Great Sequel!
Our goal is for Newgrounds to be ad free for everyone! Become a Supporter today and help make this dream a reality!
This was an Awesome GAME! Great Sequel!
good game just that the character dies in 2 hits
Game is definitely a classic seeing as i'm playing it a year later and enjoying it just as much as I originally did. Game is pretty hard for people new to bullet hell type games I would assume but for anyone with a decent reaction time you can make it all the way to the first boss without upgrading anything which makes me think it's a tad bit easy (nothing detrimental you can't really put the skill cap too high without losing half your audience because they can't play it.) Game is definitely entertaining pretty good for about an hour or two if you are looking to hit all the achievements and probably a little more if you like endless mode too much (but honestly by that point I was getting tired) Somebody said the challenges were too hard but I disagree they gave me reasonable trouble but nothing to fry my brains over (ever tried OSU! now that can drive you crazy)
Overall great game nothing that I said is so negative that I would consider it detrimental to the game except possibly the troll face thing because it's a little bit Imba if you ask me.
The game is amazing!It's a perfect sequel! :)
This is an absolutely amazing game. It nearly improved on the first one in every way.
The only thing I didn't like was that the bosses can use your weapns against you, and the challenges got a bit rediculous, but other than that it was outstanding.

The key to a deep connection is mindfulness.
If you're looking to improve communication between humans and animals,
and develop a more compassionate, connected team, Nicole Birkholzer's Mindfulness Speaker Talks are for you.
Nicole's stories from the field (and lessons from the heart!) will enrich your next big fundraiser, your annual meeting, or your volunteer appreciation event and light up your audience.
Just like us, our therapy horses want to connect.
They want to be seen and treated as individuals and respected as our partners.
And ... they're looking to expand our consciousness.
In my signature 60 minute talk, I offer audiences a mindful perspective on
relationships that are equally satisfying for you and your equine co-facilitator.
No matter if you are an instructor, barn manager, board member, or volunteer, this talk is for you. Learning how to meet our equines in the now creates an opening to deepen your connection and improve communication.
I'll share practical ways to return to the present moment — in the pasture, in the barn, and in our everyday lives, and introduce the art of active listening + mindful communication.
Audience participation is welcome + praised — and space for live Q+A is always included.
And ... if there is a horse nearby ... I might just show you a mindful connection live + in person.
Contact me with a few lines about your organization, academic program or event,
and if the timing is right — I'll be there.
