So you made a big pot of black beans from scratch and eating them plain is getting a bit old. Plus, there's all that wonderful bean broth left over. What to do, what to do… Might I recommend this soup? In about 30 minutes, you'll have a quick and easy meal for two on the table.
Black Bean Soup with Cumin, Chipotle and Lime
Heather Sage (inspired by Smitten Kitchen)
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Serves: 2 as a main course
- 2 cups Bean Broth (from homemade black beans)
- 2 cups drained, cooked Black Beans, divided
- 1 tablespoon (14 grams) Olive Oil
- 2 teaspoons (10 grams) Garlic, minced
- 2 ounces (1/2 cup, from 1/2 medium) Yellow Onion, finely chopped
- 1 dried Chipotle, stemmed
- 1/2 teaspoon Whole Cumin Seed or 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon (14 grams, from 1/2 lime) Lime Juice
- Kosher Salt, to taste
For Serving:
- 2 tablespoons (30 grams) Sour Cream
- Cilantro, chopped
- Corn Tortillas or Tortilla Chips
If using hot bean broth and beans, chill both to room temperature or colder before proceeding. Purée bean broth with 1 cup of the cooked beans in a blender or food processor until smooth; set aside.
In a small pot (4 quart), warm olive oil over medium heat. Sauté garlic through cumin in the olive oil for a few minutes, until the garlic just begins to turn golden. Stir in cocoa powder and deglaze pan with water. Stir in puréed bean mixture and remaining cup of beans. Increase heat to high, bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove and discard chipotle, stir in lime juice, and season to taste with salt.
Divide soup between bowls, top each with sour cream and a sprinkle of cilantro. Serve immediately with corn tortillas or tortilla chips on the side for dipping.

Making ready to meet Jesus Christ is the most important decision you can make in this life. Yet, there seem so many who are unsure of if they are ready. Can I know for sure? How can I know for sure?
Faith in Christ as the Son of God and His death on the cross and resurrection from the grave, paired with a repentance of sin is the necessary ingredients to be saved. But what are some realistic practical signs I am saved?
Here our Pastor shares from Scirpture some desires that every believer aught to have if they are truly born again and on their way to heaven.

PREVIOUSLY MKT Bar, the lounge within downtown supermarket Phoenicia Foods, was subdued and sparsely populated on a recent Monday evening, full of stray diners and none of the music that has made it such a popular downtown destination.
MKT Bar: Tale of an Unexpected Hot Spot, Act 1
CHARACTERS A woman and her mother nursing matching lattes; a matriarch with a slice of cheesecake; two sporty guys drinking beers; assorted after-work suit-and-ties; waiters and waitresses including our own bubbly "Katy."
SCENE 1 Winter. 5:19 p.m. We are seated in quiet corner of MKT, below a a television playing some silly old movie we can't place (a film buff we are not). The wind has changed, and so has our initial opinion of MKT Bar.
Perhaps we didn't report quite as well as we should have last time -- Monday blues are a mother -- but we now notice the piano set up near the front, and the bar's small stage is decorated with an odd mix of starry Christmas lights and Kente cloth.
Katy: How's everything taste to you? Everything good?
After serving us a bowl of queso that makes our tongue tingle, Katy informs us that tonight is Tasty Tango Tuesday, and that MKT in fact features nightly live music. Well, where the hell were we yesterday?
Suddenly a crowd of hipsters -- beards, arm-sleeve tattoos, fedoras and everything -- a duo of of sporty guys, and a quartet of old-money businessmen arrive at the same time. The hipsters perch at the bar, the businessmen sit at a table in front of the stage, and the sporty guys sit in the very center, where everyone can admire their big muscles.
The hipsters glower at the businessmen. The businessmen look lovingly into their glasses of Stella Artois. The sporty guys look with condescension on everyone else. Something is about to happen.
SCENE 2 5:54 p.m. The lights dim. The waiters bring out a table onto the stage, while others attend politely to customers, however rude they may be.
Katy (bringing more meat for the queso): Here you go.
Waiter (to Sporty Guy No. 1): Hello, welcome to MKT Bar. Can I get you something?
Sporty Guy No. 1 (to Waiter): Hold on a second; I just sat down.
Sporty Guy No. 2: Dude, I saw what you were eating the other day. Chicken breast with black beans, and -- who is that?
The lights grow dimmer.
SCENE 3 6 p.m. sharp. The bar is full now, and the tables glow from the flicker of tiny candles, placed there by an attentive manager. Another waiter, not Katy, ignores our pleas for more queso meat. The R&B oldies playing overhead have been replaced by vintage tango music, streaming from a woman's onstage laptop. The old movie is sharply interrupted by old footage of two dancers in the fierce throes of a tango.
The Sporty Guys' ire-raising brutishness is subdued by a tango instructor patiently teaching a man the first delicate steps of a tango -- a simple procedure, yet so touching to watch in the midst of all that hustle and bustle.
So, maybe there is something special about this place after all. Can't wait to see what happens tomorrow.

Disclaimer about my bags: I try my best to never make two identical handbags excluding ones that are made from basic colored vinyls. I will either change the lining, or other exterior piece or both. I want these to be one of a kind, so in saying that I can not guarantee I have the materials to make a duplicate of any bag you have seen here. Fabrics and specialty vinyls change with the seasons, so what I have is what I have. If you love something you see and want to get it for sure this is your best chance!
Sometimes I need a break from my massive and so heavy purse. This clutch is a great handbag for carrying the necessities: phone, keys, lip stick, cash, cards, and probably a few more things. It is surprisingly roomy.
The bag is constructed so it has some structure to keep it from sagging when empty, but not be so stiff it can't flex and have some give for items being stored in it.
The bag is fabric inside and out with a zip at the very top. Then there is an added strap across the middle front for you to put your hand through for easy carrying!

This political season we've heard a lot of candidates using the phrase "look at my record." "I have a record of success on issue X." Or "my opponent's record shows…"
Well, that "record" is often registered by official archivists, preserving the machinations of the political process for generations to come. And more and more, archivists are looking to include the voices of citizens in official government record.
Terry Cook worked for more than 20 years at the National Archives of Canada, and recently retired as a professor with the University of Manitoba Archival Studies program in Winnipeg.
Wendy Smith is working on a Masters Degree at the University of Manitoba focused on the efforts of Vermont and South Africa to incorporate the voices of citizens into official government records.

Enhancing Teacher Professionalism and Status
Promoting Recognition, Registration and Standards
Ensuring that teachers' professionalism is appropriately recognised and rewarded is a challenge, especially at a time when that professional status itself is often under threat. The Fifth Commonwealth Teachers' Research Symposium brought together teachers, researchers and education policy-makers to share experiences from developed and developing countries both within and outside the Commonwealth. This research event was a further contribution to ensuring that teachers with professional qualifications of good standard are able to move freely between countries of the Commonwealth and the wider world, having those qualifications and skills recognised and valued.

In the Spring of 1998 a group of musicians responded to an article in The Citizen free newspaper and met in 'Hobos' on Westgate in the north west Norfolk sea-side
town of Hunstanton to form The Hunstanton Concert Band.
The current band members...
Over the years players have come and gone but most of the original members are still playing in the band. Ron Penniston retired as a Trombonist with the band in November, 2017 after many years playing. Thank you, Ron for such sterling support for very nearly 20 years.
The band has performed in many of the Royal British Legion's annual 'Lest We Forget' concerts at The Princess Theatre here in Hunstanton and this is not the only time that it has appeared on this stage - it also helped John Harris with the millennium Concert. The band has also played at Adrian Bloom's Garden Centre at Diss, when it was engaged to play at the opening of the 'Dad's Army' Museum. Many of the stars of the show were present and indeed they received many glowing comments.
On two occasions HCB has played at the Wells-next-the-Sea RNLI Harbour service and has very much enjoyed playing at receptions for no less than five holders of the title High Sheriff of Norfolk!
It has accompanied the singing of Carols at the annual Hunstanton Town Carol Service and, of course, can be seen on the bandstand during the summer season - having played during the Hunstanton Carnival for many years and also for the annual Picnic on the Green event.
The band was very pleased to be chosen to play in 2005 for the Fleet Review at Burnham Overy Staithe to commemorate the 200th Anniversary of Admiral Lord Nelson's victory at the Battle of Trafalgar and also at the World Water Ski Championships held at Hunstanton in 2005.
On the 16th July, 2006 Hunstanton Concert Band was honoured to play at St. Mary's Church, Great Bircham on the occasion of the 60th Anniversary of King George VI's unveiling of The Cross of Sacrifice.
This very special occasion was made particularly poignant as Her Majesty The Queen was there to rededicate the memorial sixty years after her father unveiled it.
The band has performed in many of our local churches and makes regular appearances during the year at fêtes, garden parties, flower festivals and private functions. Hunstanton Concert Band draws its players from the young, the middle-aged - and the more mature! Some of the players have played professionally and others are self taught. If you fancy trying out with the band there are usually vacancies for woodwind and brass players - our music is scored for all wind instruments from piccolo to tuba and covers a wide range including classical, Glenn Miller, Sousa's marches and selections from the shows! We rehearse every Friday evening from 7.30 p.m. in the crypt hall of the Union Church (opposite the Library) in Hunstanton - and all new musicians are assured of a warm welcome.
On the 12th June, 2012, in the Diamond Jubilee year of H.M. The Queen, a royal Garden Party was held at Sandringham, the Queen's country home. Hunstanton Concert Band were one of only three Norfolk bands to be invited to play at this important social occasion. We were so pleased to be given this opportunity to entertain the Queen's guests and to be part of of this magnificent event in her Jubilee year.
For more information about rehearsals please visit the Rehearsals page.
From time to time opportunities arise for new players to join the Band. The Vacancies page lists any positions currently available.
The Band celebrated its 10th Anniversary in September, 2008 with a concert given in the Town Hall, Hunstanton. The King's Lynn Male Voice Choir joined us on stage in the presence of the Mayor of Hunstanton, Councillor Mr. Richard Bird and Mrs. Elaine Bird. Every ticket was sold and some folks were standing at the back! The proceeds for the evening, amounting to £1,031.52 was donated in full to the Hunstanton RNLI. You can view a photo of the cheque being presented to the RNLI in the Gallery.
Chris Gutteridge comes from a musical family and has been involved in music all his life, from being a folk singer and running folk clubs in his youth, to playing viola in
Norfolk Symphony Orchestra and trombone in various bands.
He has worked, and occasionally still does, as an early musician, performing with his daughter Lizzie as the duo Wyldes Noyse in concerts and school workshops, and for banquets, fairs, weddings and other events all over the country. He founded several groups including The Norfolk Gallery Quire, which performed pre-Victorian church music and The King's Lynn Waites - a re-creation of the town's Tudor civic band.
A new venture for Chris is his recent appointment as conductor of Centre Stage Swing Band, in which he once played 3rd trombone under the direction of the band's founder, the late Roger Lines.
Chris finds his wide-ranging musical tastes ideally suited to directing Hunstanton Concert Band, as the band has a broad repertoire of all musical genres. He enjoys the challenge of getting the best out of a group of enthusiastic amateurs who range from young children to the elderly, whilst ensuring that the experience is fun for all.

American Tobacco Company
See also: W. Duke, Sons and Company; Tobacco, Brown and Williamson Tobacco Company; Bull Durham Tobacco; R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company; W. Duke Sons and Company; Tobacco Barrels: Hogsheads; Inventions in the Tobacco Industry; Tobacco Belts
The American Tobacco Company, one of the first giant holding companies in American industry, was incorporated in North Carolina on 31 Jan. 1890 by James B. Duke. Duke's father, Washington, had become a successful small manufacturer of tobacco after the Civil War. His son Brodie, seeing little opportunity in a small rural tobacco factory, moved to Durham in 1869. There he began to produce smoking tobacco; five years later, Washington and his two other sons, James B. and Benjamin N., moved to Durham and combined forces with Brodie to build a factory for their joint use. The Dukes formed the firm of W. Duke, Sons and Company in 1878 to raise needed capital for the growth of their business. Soon substantial profits were pouring in, and the Dukes reinvested the money in the business for continued expansion. During this period, the youngest son, James, emerged as the true leader of the enterprise.
The leading manufacturer of smoking tobacco in Durham at the time was the William T. Blackwell Company, with its famous Bull Durham label. The sales of W. Duke, Sons and Company's brand Duke of Durham lagged behind that of Bull Durham. James B. Duke, always the visionary, realized the cigarette had great potential for the future if a machine for mass production could be perfected. In the early 1880s, James Bonsack of Virginia invented such a machine. Before the end of the decade, James B. Duke had gained exclusive control of the Bonsack machine and soon had a monopoly on the American cigarette industry. He took over the nation's five major cigarette manufacturers, which were centered in Richmond, Va., and New York City. Duke's newly formed American Tobacco Company (or Trust) encompassed practically all of the small smoking tobacco firms and most of the chewing tobacco producers in the nation. Major firms absorbed in North Carolina included R. J. Reynolds of Winston-Salem, W. T. Blackwell of Durham, and F. R. Penn of Reidsville. In 1904 Duke reorganized his many tobacco firms into a single corporation. By 1906 American Tobacco controlled four-fifths of the entire domestic tobacco industry other than cigars.
In 1907 a federal court ruled that American Tobacco had a monopoly on licorice, a flavoring, and that the company was guilty of violating the Sherman Antitrust Act. After a long trial, the court prohibited the company from enjoying interstate trade until conditions were corrected. The ruling was appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, which decided on 29 May 1911 that the company had to be dissolved. On 16 Nov. 1911 the Supreme Court issued a decree that the company had to be divided into three major parts: American Tobacco, Liggett and Myers, and P. Lorillard. The control of R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company of Winston-Salem was also relinquished. James B. Duke, a multimillionaire by then, retired from active management of the American companies and turned his attention to other interests, including the generation of hydroelectric power and the creation of Duke University in Durham.
After the breakup of American Tobacco in 1911, the restructured company concentrated its tobacco manufacturing in Durham and Reidsville, N.C.; Louisville, Ky.; and Richmond, Va. The Durham facility had been built by the Duke family and included the former William T. Blackwell plant. The Reidsville plant was the former F. R. Penn Tobacco Company, which the American Tobacco Company had purchased shortly before the dissolution of the American Tobacco Trust in 1911.
American Tobacco purchased the Penn plant in 1911, and Penn's sons, Charles and T. Jeff, continued to work for the corporation. Charles A. Penn became a director of American Tobacco in 1911 and the vice president of manufacturing in 1916. He perfected the blend for a new cigarette known as Lucky Strike, which was later to become one of the leading brands in the history of the industry. Mainly through Charles Penn's efforts, the former Penn plant was enlarged for the production of Lucky Strike, and Reidsville soon became one of American Tobacco's four major production centers.
American Tobacco Company began to diversify in the 1960s and moved into other fields, including distilled spirits, life insurance, office supplies, cosmetics, and hardware. In 1968 the various components of the company were reorganized into a new corporation, American Brands, Inc. As its older tobacco manufacturing plants became outmoded, the company began to concentrate its cigarette production in Reidsville. It closed its Louisville plants in 1971, its Richmond plants in 1981, and its Durham plants in 1987. The manufacturing complex in Reidsville was expanded to accommodate the increased production. In 1986 the American Tobacco Company became a subsidiary of American Brands, making it one of the largest cigarette producers in the United States. As Gallaher, Ltd., it also became the leading cigarette producer in the United Kingdom.
Through the work of the Historic Preservation Society of Durham and various developers in the 1980s, the tobacco district of downtown Durham began to be restored and transformed into a thriving urban center featuring apartment complexes, restaurants, and unique retail stores. The 14 acres of the American Tobacco Historic District was at the heart of Durham's renewal. By 2004 its massive red-brick buildings had undergone a $200 million renovation financed by Capital Broadcasting Company and was serving as attractive office space for a variety of tenants.

NCpedia is the online encyclopedia of North Carolina and unfortunately, we do not have any additional corporate information for you.

Hi, i would like to know if you have any information about the american tobacco company profit-sharing plan.i have a piece of paper dated 2/10/61 from your charleston Branch.this document belongs to my grandmother.any information concerning this document, please email it to me.
I helped to inspect the
I helped to inspect the American Tobacco Facility in 1993 prior to it's refurbishment for residential and commercial use. At that time it had been closed for a number of years, but the 26 original buildings stood much as they had the day the doors were closed, except for the removal of heavy equipment. There was still cured tobacco on the conveyor belts and if you passed your hand through it the sweet smell of tobacco would waft in the air.
At the time there were a number of contaminants like asbestos in the facility, but they have apparently all been abated now. It is remarkable to walk through this complex currently; by two of the oldest tobacco warehouses in the State on the northwest corner, south by progressively more current buildings all of which are brick until you reach the newest cast concrete structures on the south end of the facility. (The new parking deck replaces several brick buildings that originally stood on the southwest corner). There was a rail line in the middle of the campus that allowed rail cars to dump coal into a hopper that fed a conveyor to the massive boilers in the power plant in the center of it all which now houses a movie theater.
The most striking memory I have of this facility frozen in time was from the office building on the northeast corner. Walking through at the time I found four sets of restrooms and couldn't understand what was going on. Then I looked above the entrance doors, men's and women's restrooms for both "colored" and "white." A place literally frozen in time...
I was pleasantly surprised to see the vibrant campus when I passed through again recently after 25 years.

Hi there! My students are
Hi there! My students are learning about the history of tobacco in NC. They learned that at one time in history NC had 126 factories running. They then asked me how many factories in NC are still operational. I've googled and haven't found a definite answer. Do you have an answer?
Hi Amy,
Hi Amy,
Thanks for asking this question! And for visiting NCpedia. I am replying via email with more information.
And the short answer is that according to a database of business information, there are currently approximately 41 companies in NC involved in tobacco manufacturing. This database is called ACCESSNC and you can also access it via the NC Dept. of Commerce website: http://www.nccommerce.com/lead/data-tools. And here is the link to ACCESSNC: http://accessnc.commerce.state.nc.us/EDIS/page1.html
My email includes more specific information, including a listing of the current businesses and what types of products they produce. I hope this helps your class!

Los Alamos National Laboratory
Los Alamos National Laboratory purchases nearly $1 billion in goods and services last fiscal year
- Steve Sandoval
- Communications Office
- (505) 665-9206
Surpasses goals for small business procurements
LOS ALAMOS, New Mexico, December 6, 2010—Los Alamos National Laboratory purchased nearly $1 billion in goods and services in the 2010 fiscal year ending September 30, 2010. The $925 million in purchases was helped in part by funding from the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act the Laboratory received for environmental remediation and basic research.
The Laboratory also exceeded its goals for purchases made by small businesses in Northern New Mexico, the state and the country.
The Laboratory and the National Nuclear Security Administration's Los Alamos Site Office annually set targets for the percentage of purchases made by small businesses. In fiscal year 2010, 63 percent of all purchases made by the Laboratory were from small businesses, far exceeding the Lab's target of 46 percent.
In the 2010 fiscal year, $484 million in purchases were made from businesses in New Mexico — $352 million of this amount from businesses in Northern New Mexico.
"Our Small Business Program Office, working with LANL procurement personnel and program staff, strives to ensure that small businesses in Northern New Mexico and nationwide have every opportunity to learn about and take advantage of purchasing opportunities at Los Alamos National Laboratory," said Small Business Program Manager Dennis Roybal. He added that many of these small businesses are identified through local and national outreach events such as the Supplier Forum the Laboratory hosted last spring in Española, and a business opportunity forum sponsored by the Energy Technology and the Environmental Business Association (ETEBA), and cosponsored by the Laboratory November 8-10 in Knoxville, Tennessee.
The Laboratory also exceeded its goals for purchases from Small Disadvantaged Businesses, Women-Owned Small Businesses, Historically Underutilized, or HUB Zone Businesses, Veteran-Owned and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned small businesses.
Roybal added that purchases by the Laboratory also help stimulate the Northern New Mexico economy by creating or sustaining jobs in small business
Los Alamos National Laboratory, a multidisciplinary research institution engaged in strategic science on behalf of national security, is managed by Triad, a public service oriented, national security science organization equally owned by its three founding members: Battelle Memorial Institute (Battelle), the Texas A&M University System (TAMUS), and the Regents of the University of California (UC) for the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration.
Los Alamos enhances national security by ensuring the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear stockpile, developing technologies to reduce threats from weapons of mass destruction, and solving problems related to energy, environment, infrastructure, health, and global security concerns.

I hope you (somewhat) enjoy my very first vlog! It's about finding joy in your home, and how decluttering and organizing are for everyone!
I may have lost the plot a little, and made this too late at night, but hey - it's only up from here, right? =)

Excellent vlog and essay!
Congrats & great job on your 1st vlog! I'm always trying to declutter and cannot believe how much I have accumulated. Love that you are not strict with the rules of minimalism and recognizing that we each have different lives and therefore may need more of a certain thing...like 5 pairs of shoes instead of 2. I love the concept of keeping only the things you need...and love. Been reading The Joy of Tidying by Marie Kondo which is what she says as well. Such a simple and obvious concept....and true! Good luck :)

How Does A SSL Certificate Work For Non Techies
Typically, SSL is used to secure credit card transactions, data transfer and logins, and more recently is becoming the norm when securing browsing of social media sites. [Globalsign]
Your website is now secured with a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Certificate from one of the many SSL Certificate Providers. Most likely, you secured your SSL through your web host provider so you really don't know who the provider is, all you know is that you have a secured website.
Ever wonder how an SSL Certificate works?
Here is a simple infographic explaining what happens when a visitor connects to your secured website.
My goal was to explain how a SSL Certificate works as simple as I can.
Using a picture instead of words:
"A picture is worth a thousand words."
The original quote was actually 'A picture is worth ten thousand words' as stated by Fred R. Barnard, of Printers' Ink, 10 March 1927.

StartEngine, a U.S. based equity crowdfunding platform, has announced that it has started accepting investment contributions in bitcoin. Founded in 2014, the company has launched various ICOs and has helped raise capital for more than 150 startups.
According to the Regulation Crowdfunding rules presented by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a funding portal must collaborate with a bank so that investors' money can be stored in escrow until the startup that is using the funding portal has reached its minimum target. Thus, StartEngine has partnered with Prime Trust, a Nevada-based bank, to help fulfill this condition.
Prime Trust will not only store but also convert bitcoins into U.S. dollars, making it the first bank to support bitcoin and protect crypto investors, according to a statement from the firm. Using this feature, businesses can raise a maximum of $1.7 million per year.
Howard Marks, CEO of StartEngine, wrote that this would eliminate the risk of any hacking incident in the future. He added that even though some exchanges have claimed that they are storing cryptocurrencies in cold wallets, investments are still not insured.
"One of biggest hurdles for any company handling Bitcoin is the risk that the handler can be hacked, in which case the investor loses all of their money. Think of Mt Gox and the dozens of websites or 'exchanges' that were hacked. They had no custodian of the assets and no insurance, so when they were hacked, the Bitcoin was gone. End of story."
Earlier this year, StartEngine launched a crypto-friendly feature that helped companies in creating their ICO 2.0 (an ICO that follows the guidelines of Reg A+). With the latest addition, companies can now raise capital and sell their tokens in exchange for bitcoin by using the StartEngine platform.
StartEngine previously raised $5 million in its Regulation A offering, with 3,400 investors contributing to the funding round. The company is currently hosting its own ICO, with a hard cap of $10 million. The company also intends to introduce a service called StartEngine Secondary, which will provide investors with a platform for trading tokenized securities, a dApp for "logging transactions" in SEC regulated securities, and StartEngine Secure, a secure transfer agent.
The first equity crowdfunding platform to allow users to invest using bitcoin was WeFunder. The company rolled out the feature, in partnership with BTC payment processor BitPay, in 2016.

I am new here but I wanted to vent about BM (I am sure we have all done that). And I am one of those silly silly brides that got caught up with the excitement of the engagement and asked her BMs like right away (my wedding is not for over a year). So all my BMs are totally fine except for one... My SIL. I am really trying to be a accommodating bride. I am letting the girls pick their own dress (as long as its deep purple) if they have one already, want to borrow etc, fine by me! Hair and makeup is not mandatory, I am providing the accommodation for the night before and after for the out of towners and I told my SIL who does not live where the rest of the BMs do that if there is a shower held were we are, that she doesn't need to attend if its too far away. Sounds fair to me! My present to them will be paying for the spa day the day of the rehearsal...which she still asks if she needs to even attend.
Well here are some of my problems...everytime I discuss the wedding, she has made various comments and here we go:
1. Thinks weddings are stupid and silly and a waste of money-they are common-law. Fair enough but c`mon you don't need to keep saying it.
2. Every time I share something to do with invites or photography she sends me back a quote for the price she would do it for me, with a "generous" discount of 25 off. Umm thanks for trying to make a buck off the wedding...
3. She flipped out on me when I wrote to the girls about the shopping trip (all the girls wanted to go together to a bigger city to shop for dresses so they could get a close colour) even though I said it was optional and I would pay for the hotel. I am giving five months notice!
4. Told me that I was selfish because I am having the wedding where I live. Its in the middle sort of for my family and fiancé family. I am selfish because my Grandma is thinking she doesn't want to attend because its maybe too far (only 6 hours-but fine if that is her choice) and do I really want to have my wedding day without her? Even saying that my finances family is silly because they are already travelling 12 hours to our town but couldn't they travel four more hours so the wedding can be in my hometown where she lives (my hometown is 3-4 hours away from the wedding)
5. She doesn't want to do anything with a bachelorette if its not where she lives....
6. And even my BM has even told me that she thinks this girl doesn't even want to buy me a wedding gift because the gift alone is showing up. Even though she and my brother have a very expensive over seas trip planned. I think that has more to do with it.
I have even spoken to her gently saying that she seems stressed and maybe stressed financially and that I wouldn't want this experience to stress her out, so if it was too much, to let me know but she says she is fine.
So I don't know what to do....and her comments etc are starting to hurt me....
She honestly sounds like she's the one being petty and ridiculous...I'd say it's most likely jealousy since none of it seems to really make sense.
I think that was very considerate of you giving your bridesmaids a pretty big heads up about a shopping trip. Honestly, once people are working full-time and have lives, families, whatever it sometimes takes that much advance notice to schedule something!
I also think the spa gift is a great present (outside of the hair/makeup/nails for the day of) since it's pampering them in a way that has nothing to do with their wedding day appearance. I personally would be tickled with a spa day as a present. Who wouldn't love a nice massage or facial??
And as far as asking opinions from bridesmaids on invites and stuff...I really don't see how that's an imposition on them. I think it's nice that you were asking her at all and were trying to include her. That's kind of what friends do for each other and it sounds like you've made a lot of effort to be a friend and accomodating to her. If she's disinterested, she'll let you know (or in this case trying to sell her services) and then you can just stop going to her for opinions.
I honestly don't think you've done anything wrong outside of the wedding gift frustration. Bridesmaids are supposed to be there for fun wedding related stuff.
Thanks I was just posting this for a bit of support. I know that I new here but please dont get a bad impresion of me. I really am trying to make this very cost effective for my BMs and covering whatever financially that I can. They can get whatever dress they want, I dont care about shoes and if you want your hair and makeup done, I will try to cover whatever I can.
The comments from her are just hurtful. Especially the one about me being selfish..because anyone who knows me knows that I would give the shirt off my back if they needed it. I just have two families to deal with it. For some reason she has a major problem that its not in my hometown. She makes me feel that I am this stupid big spender person. And I am very silly to hold it where my fiance and alll of our friends live.
yes, my wedding is far away but why do I get lashed out at when they asked for details and I gave them the details? Its not like I said Ok guys, tomorrow you HAVE to buy this and this is the plan. I was asked again and again what the dress colour would be, everyone suggested they all go shopping to get a similar colour, what will hair and makeup be, what is the plan and they all asked for a lot of notice and I gave it to them. yes five months for a shopping trip is far away but all these girls are very busy and they asked for that notice to plan a weekend as they all wanted to go close to Christmas time.
I guess my only solution is to avoid her? I dunno....I just wish that wasnt the way...it wasnt what I had in mind when I asked her...

Feel Relaxed While You're In The Chair
Nitrous oxide (also called laughing gas) sedation is a safe and effective way of minimizing pain and reducing anxiety associated with dental treatments. The sedative agent is mixed with oxygen and inhaled through a mask, and its effects wear off quickly once the mask is removed.
Sedation Without The Hassle
Unlike being put to sleep, receiving nitrous oxide sedation is extremely straightforward and uncomplicated. There is no pre-planning for you, and best of all you'll be able to drive yourself home right after your treatment!
During the administration of the gas, you remain fully conscious, fully aware, and fully able to communicate with your dental provider. Your sedation can be stopped or paused at any time if you start feeling uncomfortable or if you feel the need to take a break.
At Chapel Hill Dental our dentists are qualified to administer the gas and would be happy to discuss these and all of its other benefits with you prior to your planned treatment.
Will My Insurance Cover the Costs?
Many dental plans will cover the use of nitrous oxide. But to be sure of coverage in advance of your procedure, our Patient Experience Coordinators would be happy to submit a pre-determination request to your insurer on your behalf.
Nitrous is suitable for patients of all ages and it's a service that is typically covered by dental insurance.
So if you're feeling anxious about your upcoming visit, give us a call at 613.424.4241 and let us show you why dentistry doesn't have to be stressful.

CIA President Once Again Named Among Most Powerful People in Food
Dr. Tim Ryan Recognized by Nation's Restaurant News for his Influence and Impact
Courtesy of the Culinary Institute of America
For the third time in the last four years, Dr. Tim Ryan, president of The Culinary Institute of America, has been named to the Nation's Restaurant News "NRN 50 Power List" as one of the most important people in the food and hospitality industry for 2017.
The NRN 50 Power List recognizes the people who are leading and shaping the food world. Dr. Ryan was honored in the "Influencers" category this year and also in 2016. In 2014, he made the list in the "Connectors" category.
The feature about Dr. Ryan in the current special issue of the magazine says, "For 15 years, Tim Ryan has led what is widely considered the country's premier culinary school—The Culinary Institute of America—and has solidified its reputation as a leading force in the evolving food landscape. . . [The CIA] has also prepared thousands of students for the broad career opportunities available to the modern chef. Realizing that chefs do more at restaurants than cook, Ryan and his staff have expanded instruction to include such diverse topics as culinary science, elder care, technology and business."
Dr. Ryan said, "It's fulfilling for me to lead such an outstanding team of educators during this dynamic time in food business and higher education. There are so many opportunities, so many paths for students to take—and we are gratified to know that when they leave our college, they are prepared to lead in every segment of the food world. Our graduates are shaping the way people eat and they're transforming the industry. That's a great feeling for us."
A 1977 graduate of the CIA, Dr. Ryan's unique background includes being a Culinary Olympics champion and Certified Master Chef. He also holds an advanced Ivy League degree, having earned his doctorate in education from the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Ryan has been with the CIA since 1982, when he was recruited to serve on the faculty and develop and run the college's ground-breaking American Bounty Restaurant. He became the CIA's fifth president in 2001.

Brawn's runaway success in 2009 is not a reason to change the lean team's approach to the world championship, boss Ross Brawn has insisted.
Brawn's runaway success in 2009 is not a reason to change the lean team's approach to the world championship, boss Ross Brawn has insisted.
After narrowly escaping Honda's withdrawal with an eleventh-hour management buyout, the Brackley team ironically dominated the opening races of the year while carefully managing a distinct lack of spare parts.
"If you saw our car before the start of the last race, she was looking a bit tired. She was stone-chipped to hell," championship leader Jenson Button had jokingly informed in Bahrain.
But since then, companies have been queuing up for telephone time with team CEO Nick Fry, who has knocked back Virgin's offer for title sponsorship because the proposed figure is too low.
At the same time, Brawn GP has vowed to maintain the same approach to the forthcoming races, with a budget fundamentally the same size now as it was two months ago in Australia.
"I prefer to spend our money in the wind tunnel," Ross Brawn is quoted as saying by Spain's sports daily Marca. "That's more important for us than the number of wings we take to the races.
"We are keeping our focus on how we can prepare the fastest possible car," he added.
"We have the budget and the people to win the championship but we are going to deal with the races as they come. I am optimistic. We have tremendous momentum and the rest is up to us," said Brawn.

From readers – January 24, 2018
Apples and oranges
A recent letter writer ("Where are the funds for charity?" Jan. 10) inquires where the funds for charity are in the archdiocese's budget. The writer references an article that touts a "… cost-effective way to end homelessness." I noted that no figures in the subject Utah/LDS agreement were given. And no figures were provided for the overall budget of the LDS church to which regular donations are directed. But that is to be expected because those figures are unavailable.
The Catholic Church, unlike LDS, does not require a 10 percent tithe of its members to the archdiocese or to the Vatican. Catholics donate to their parish and, unlike LDS, are free to participate in any Church activity without pledging a tithe, and they freely give (about 1.5 percent) to their local parish.
The archdiocese budget is to support the parishes and their mission. Thus, Catholics are free and encouraged to donate to charities including Catholic Charities of St. Paul and Minneapolis, Catholic Charities USA and Catholic Relief Services (worldwide) which serve strictly on need. Combined, they constitute one of the largest charities on the planet, while operating as separate entities serving different geographic sectors and are unaffected by any political or promotional efforts of the Church.

Appreciated profile
Thank you for the recent profile of attorney Patrick Noaker ("Minneapolis attorney: Desire to help sexual abuse survivors fuels work," Jan. 10). I was especially impressed that your story noted that many abuse victims, to numb their pain, engage in self-destructive behaviors that not only exacerbate their suffering but also diminish their credibility. Noaker clearly understands this and now, thankfully, more of your readers will as well.

Hi there! I'm Lisa.
First of all, in the interest of authenticity, I need to confess. That picture to the left is probably about a decade old. Yup. I'm one of those people. No, not one of THOSE people! One of the people who thinks that the teal and yellow in the picture makes it the right picture for my website. Yes, I'm also one of the people who chooses which team to root for in the Super Bowl by their team colors.
For those of you bothered by the lack of a current photo, here is a photo taken Thanksgiving of 2017 of me and my Grandma. No, not because I am really concerned about you having a current picture of me, but because my Grandma is awesome! Exept now I want to add photos of my awesome hubby and my awesome mom and my awesome…
Oh, you didn't come to this page to learn about my favorite colors or how awesome my family is? You came to learn about Steeped In Solutions? I wish that were a short answer.
First, it came out of frustration. I got into creating websites and designing logos and business materials kind of by accident. That's another story, but the relevant part is that my clients kind of looked at these things as a solution to their problems. They aren't solutions, they are simply tools to help you. Think of having a website sort of like having a car. Having a car is fantastic. It certainly can get you places. It's what it was designed for! But unless you put gas in it, change the oil, keep air in the tires, and have some place to go it's kind of not worth it. Steeped In Solutions was created out of the realization that unless I teach my clients how to maintain their websites and make them realize that their website needs to lead their audience to take action, the website is kind of useless too. That's where the idea was birthed, but not the entirety of it.
The second part has to do with the name. Well, the "Steeped In" part of the name. This has more to do with me than you. I like it because it's a nod to my tea obsession. Mmmhmmm. Obsession. My husband loves to tell people how we need a whole cabinet in our kitchen devoted to my tea leaves, things I use to blend them, steepers, cups, etc. I don't think he realizes I have a stash in my office too. Shhh! Anyway, it's a nod to that, but it's also a reminder to me that this business is not my own. I know it will fail if God is not the head of this company. I am way too flawed on my own, but as a child of God I have access to all of his insight, wisdom and every other possible thing I could ever need. This business needs to be steeped in prayer, as do my clients. Only then can we all succeed together.
Lastly, if you know me you know that I love to brainstorm ideas. I love ideas, I love possibilities, I love to experiment and tinker with possible solutions. I'm not sure if I love that or tea more! Luckily I can play with ideas while drinking tea. As I looked at what I wanted my business to become, because I did not want to continue to build websites that just sat in the driveway (back to the car metaphor) I decided that I wanted to build solutions. If you want a website, great, lets look at where you want it to go and build it around that. But I want to do more. I want to build marketing plans, processes for efficiency, training materials and more all built around my clients needs.
If you're on board that's great! I want to hear from you. Tell me about yourself, sign up for my newsletter, schedule a free consultation. I'm looking forward to building something great with you.

| 8.5°C Belfast
Fans vowed to party all night as Northern Ireland entered their first major tournament for 30 years.
The country stormed into football's European Championships in emphatic style with a 3-1 triumph over Greece at Windsor Park.
Supporters sang Queen's classic "we are the champions" and for one night at least they were.
The Botanic Inn in Belfast was crammed with the green-clad army of supporters who have waited so long for a night to savour.
Jonny Ashe said: "It is the first in my life time so why not? Party time."
Guinness flowed as quickly as the plaudits.
Amy Gillen from Belfast said: "I am absolutely over the moon, it is a once in a lifetime opportunity, we are going to France."
Northern Ireland had expected since the ball started hitting the back of the net early on.
Captain Steven Davis found the target and the cheers were deafening.
"We are not Brazil we are Northern Ireland" rang out accompanied by clenched fists and raised Harp glasses.
The Mexico World Cup of 1986 was the last time the small country tasted major tournament football.
Now all roads will head south once again.
Chants of "Green Army" echoed around the cavernous pub bedecked incongruously in Irish rugby bunting, but taken over for one special evening by football.
A second goal prompted calls of "Here we come France" and "We are going to France".
And the wave of bouncing feet and waving arms which greeted the final whistle could have greeted a World Cup final goal.
Garry Goodman, 32, said: "Watch out, they are going to have an extra player behind them with this support."
Prime Minister David Cameron tweeted: "Huge congratulations to Northern Ireland on qualifying for the European Championships for the first time."
Referencing the Republic of Ireland's victory over Germany as well Sinn Fein deputy first minister Martin McGuinness tweeted: "Incredible night for Irish football, congrats Martin and Michael O'Neill (managers) & both teams. Beating the world champions in Dublin so amazing."
Democratic Unionist first minister Peter Robinson said: "Tremendous result and achievement. Huge congratulations to Michael O'Neill and team. Great night for Northern Ireland."
Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers also tweeted her congratulations.
Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams called for one "world beater" united Ireland team.


text: Anyone have any info or contacts about battery swapping? I know Musk said they pretty much put it on the far back burner now since the trial in California proved everyone preferred the free Superchargers compared to fast but paid battery swap. However as we have seen how things are going in HK where space is a premium there will be a point when they sold more cars than possible to build superchargers for. I think Tesla should restart the battery swap program with a pilot in HK. When we see 6 cars lined up in front of us for the SC, I think some of us are willing to pay say under 200HKD (considering a full tank of premium gas costed me 900 HKD for my hybrid before) for a quick swap. Not only that but as I said it will become a NECESSITY when they have sold say 30,000 cars in HK there is no way to install 3000 SCs in HK. Discuss; anyone have a contact for Tesla US to reach out to?

This document is the renewed memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed on November 15, 2018 by U.S. EPA Acting Administrator Andrew Wheeler with the signatories of the National Vehicle Mercury Switch Recovery Program (NVMSRP). Involving more than 10,000 recyclers, this program has already removed and safely recycled more than 6.8 million mercury switches, containing a total of more than 7.6 tons of mercury.
EPA's Smart Sectors program renewed the MOU with the NVMSRP, a collaboration for reducing mercury air emissions initially designed by EPA's Sectors program and its partners in 2006. By diverting the switches from the waste stream, the program has prevented the release of mercury into the atmosphere.
The program was set to expire in 2017; however, given its effectiveness, EPA re-joined the MOU, which is now extended to 2021. Other parties to the MOU include the Steel Manufacturers Association, the American Iron and Steel Institute, the End of Life Vehicle Solutions Corporation, the Automotive Recyclers Association, and the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries.
More information on the program can be found on the EPA website.

text: Born again in April 1974, God opened many doors for Ministry. 15 years ago, I got involved in doing Bible studies in the Prison Ministry. I shared the Gospel with many prison inmates. Presently, I am active at KCIW (Kentucky Correctional Institute for Women) and with the help of Debra Huff studies are held every Tuesday night in the Psychological Care Unit. We, recently, did our first women's encounter last May and are preparing to do our first crusade out on the yard of the prison in June. We have bible studies each year during the fall in September that are held in the chapel at the prison. We also have a Christmas program in December for the prison women with special music and a guest speaker. The anointing of God is present and powerful in ministering life and healing to the women as the Gospel is presented to them. Many women have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior as a result of these meetings and lives have been changed for the glory of God.

The Power of God's Word
By: Rick Boxx
January 10, 2013
For tax purposes, a divorced parent with whom the children reside the majority of the year usually receives the entire tax benefit, while the other parent receives nothing. A Back to the Bible study discovered a similar result for those engaged in studying the Bible a majority of the week.
Investing in Gods Word at least four days a week made a dramatic positive change on behavior, while three days or less of Bible reading made no significant difference.
Jesus taught in John 15:7, If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
If you desire to see significant change in your life, abide in Gods Word at least four times a week. Youll be pleased with the outcome.

We've just witnessed what could be a pivotal week in the race for the Premier League title 2018/19.
Pep's Man City machine has turned around the recent points deficit and now sit top of the table knowing that a win in each of their last 9 games has their title retained.
Back-to-back 1-0 victories over West Ham and Bournemouth coupled with Liverpool's dropped points at Old Trafford and Goodison, have given the men from the Etihad a single point advantage heading into the latter stages of the season.
Klopp's men need to regroup and quickly. Four draws their previous six league games, five in seven if you include the Champions League is not the form required in February / March in order to become legends.
It's worth remembering that just a few weeks ago Klopp's side could have been 10 points ahead had they managed to despatch City at the turn of the year. Plus Riyad Mahrez's missed stoppage time penalty kick at Anfield inflicted an earlier defeat on the Kop faithful.
All change now!
Due to the participation in the FA Cup, City's run will be slightly disjointed from that of their title rivals, only two domestic league games in March could take the numerical advantage back to Merseyside should they deliver and turn recent draws into much needed wins.
Below are the remaining fixtures for each side in the quest to be crowned champions of England;
Man City
09/03/19 – Watford (H)
30/03/19– Fulham (A)
06/04/19 – Cardiff (H)
14/04/19 – Crystal Palace (A)
20/04/19 – Tottenham (H)
24/04/19 – Man Utd (A)
28/04/19 – Burnley (A)
04/05/19 – Leicester (H)
12/05/19 – Brighton (A)
10/03/09 – Burnley (H)
17/03/19 – Fulham (A)
31/03/19 – Tottenham (H)
05/04/19 – Southampton (A)
14/04/19 – Chelsea (H)
21/04/19 – Cardiff (A)
26/04/19 – Huddersfield (H)
04/05/19 – Newcastle (A)
12/05/19 – Wolves (H)
On paper the Manchester-based side have the easier run, but we all know that games and more importantly titles are not won on paper.
Spurs who have had what appears to be there annual wobble have to visit both title-hunting clubs and with pressure off they could get into their free flowing rhythm and cause an upset on the day.
Man Utd having recently taken points off Liverpool may find themselves in a catch 22 in mid-April. Win and they have the bragging rights of the City, lose and they may just have handed their biggest rivals their 1st title since 1990.
Could there even be a stranger twist brought about by recent event? Brendan Rodgers will take his hit -and-miss Leicester side to City in the penultimate game. Having seen the title slip away (pun intended) before being sacked – he could now play a pivotal role in derailing Pep's men with little time remaining to recover.
One thing we believe for certain is that this title race is nowhere near over. Liverpool we believe will actually prefer to be the chaser rather than the chased.
An interesting few weeks ahead and games which will define legacies. It's that important.

Gaslow Single Refillable Bottle kit.
Gaslow systems and kits come with everything needed for the most comprehensive and professional installation. The quality of the kits and components is, in our opinion, of the highest standard.
Choose between 6kg and 11kg LPG bottles
Gaslow Refillable Cylinders
Why struggle connecting, lifting and carrying heavy gas bottles and then pay 50% more for the gas than you have to? Then when you travel to Europe and you run out of gas, it becomes a nightmare as you cannot even exchange your empty cylinder for a full one!
By installing a Gaslow Refillable Cylinder System, you can simply pull in to one of thousands of LPG stations throughout the UK and Europe and fill up just like you would your car. Not only is the gas much cheaper, you will never waste any gas and you can simply top up your cylinders at any time – you only pay for the gas you use!
Try the system with one cylinder – using your standard cylinder with it. You can easily add a second Gaslow Refillable at any time as it needs little installation. When you come to replace your van you have the simple option of taking the whole system with you!
The NEW Gaslow R67 Cylinder has been designed and tested to meet the R67 tank standard. The R67 standard is more stringent than that for refillable cylinders and as such the new bottle is the ideal gas solution for your motorhome or caravan.
– Now available in 2.7kg, 6kg and 11kg size
– 80% Overfill Protection
– Over Pressure Relief Valve
– Filter prevents inpurities in the gas entering the system
– Excess Flow Valve restricts gas if hose ruptures
– New improved mechanical contents gauge
– 10 year warranty
– Tested and approved to the R67 tank standard
The R67 cylinders are compatible with the entire range of Gaslow Refillable components.
The standard range of Gaslow Refillable cylinders were designed in 6kg and 11kg sizes specifically to fit all Caravans and Motorhomes. They are European Approved and carry a full 15 year warranty* on the complete system, including the non-rubber, stainless steel filler hoses.
For complete safety, the specially designed and European Pi approved Filler Valves automatically shut off the gas when the cylinder is 80% full – preventing the dangers associated with overfilling. * After 15 years you MUST take your cylinder(s) to your local dealer who will exchange them for new cylinders charging a replacement fee

You guys! I am SO EXCITED to share Ruby and Harold's 65 YEAR anniversary session with you! Five years ago, I had the complete honor of documenting their 60th wedding anniversary. And now 5 years later, I got to see them again! I had emailed Cindy, one of their children, and together we planned another shoot with them.
Harold is the exact same as I remember him. Cutting jokes and always smiling. Sadly, Ruby's dementia has worsened. She didn't remember me or the last time we took pictures together. When she greeted me at the door, she wrapped me up in a tight hug… just like you would hug family you hadn't seen in a long time. I told her I was so excited to see her and she said, 'Well, I wish I knew why!' But wow, her personality was just as sassy as ever!! I brought her cookies from Mookies. Her face lit up and she said, 'Are these all for me?' I said yes and she said, 'Well, bye bye family!!' She went back inside and wrote her name on the box. It's so sad to know that she won't remember me, her cookies or the wonderful time we had together. But she'll enjoy looking at the pictures and that's exactly why I do what I do. They still have a large framed print hanging in their home from our last session together.
1952. On their wedding day.
He was so proud of his suit. He bragged about how he found it at a second hand store for less than $15. The coat was about 3 sizes too big, but Harold is so handsome that you can't even tell. His bowtie has been in his wardrobe for over 65 years!
I told him those flowers were for Ruby.
She was excited.
I said, 'Ok, Ruby! I want you to give him a kiss!' And she goes, 'Ooooooh! Haven't I kissed him enough?' She is hilarious!!
One of my favorite shots! How long these hands have held each other!
Despite her dementia, she recognizes Harold and loves him more and more each day. You can see it in her eyes.
Look how proud he is!!
Doing their favorite thing in the world together. Ruby very clearly read her favorite verse to me without skipping a beat. From the King James version, Psalm 100: 1-5: "Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations."
Their family tree and legacy:
Children: Marty, Rhonda, Tim, Cindy, Sandy
Grand Children: David, Kevin, Brian, Michael, Ethan, Brook, Kari
Great Grand Children: Tyler, Noah, Kaylah, Karoline, Burke, Campbell, Meredith, Cole, Adeline, Gaige, Skylar, River, Cole, Perrin
Great-Great Grand Children: Georgia
5 children, 7 grandchildren and 14 great grand children, 1 great-great grandchild

The UK vote to exit the European Union has given new momentum to euroskeptic, anti-immigration movements elsewhere. Experts discuss the political and policy lessons that can be learned from Brexit and applied to debates in Europe and North America, including how to address public anxiety over immigration and identity while managing migration in a globalized economy.
Movements of migrants and asylum seekers in the Mediterranean have shown to be highly fluid, adapting quickly to changing conditions at origin, transit, and destination. This article examines the shifts in flows across the three major Mediterranean routes since 2008 and the complex web of often interconnected factors underpinning these movements.
This report sheds light on supplementary funding mechanisms targeted to migrant-background students in four countries—Canada, France, Germany, and the United States—and some of the key challenges and strategies decisionmakers face as they attempt to ensure that additional resources are used effectively to remedy the achievement gaps that immigrant and refugee students often confront.
Swedish and U.S. government officials, and MPI's Kathleen Newland discuss global and national responses to rising displacement, innovations in managing migration processes, and attempts to address the dysfunctional aspects of international migration, in a discussion organized by MPI and the Embassy of Sweden to the United States.
While Poland held a generally positive opinion of immigration throughout the early 2000s, public attitudes toward refugees have shifted decidedly rightward since the onset of Europe's migration and refugee crisis. This article explores the complex, intersecting anxieties at play in Poland and the role of political rhetoric in stoking these sentiments
As immigrant-skeptic movements gained salience, and even political representation, in several European countries in recent years, Germany remained a relative outlier until mid-2015. This report explains how a pro-immigrant consensus evolved and persisted in Germany during the period from 2005—as the country emerged from recession and embarked on a reform of its immigration laws—through to the events of mid-2015.
A discussion on how the politics and migration policies of the British government influenced the decision to hold the "Brexit" referendum, how public attitudes towards immigration might influence the decision whether the United Kingdom leaves the European Union, and how the outcome might impact migration policy in the United Kingdom and European Union more broadly.
This report analyzes British polling data in a bid to paint a more accurate picture of public opinion on immigration in the United Kingdom, which is often described as having particularly hostile attitudes compared to other countries. The report examines several drivers of public opinion, including media coverage, and considers how recent migration policies can be linked to public opinion—including the call for a Brexit referendum.

Smallville's 200th episode, which takes a look at Clark's past, present and future, will bring the farm boy-turned-reporter several steps closer to being the Man of Steel as he faces the hard truths behind his father's death. Executive producers Kelly Souders and Brian Peterson offer insights about how the episode changes the series as it nears the end.
Smallville's Brian Peterson: "Everything is possible" in the final season
8. Clark's Journey Through Past, Present and Future: Clark (Tom Welling) will take a look at his life — and others' — with the help of Brainiac 5 (James Marsters). "We looked at the different DC characters, and who would make sense to take Clark on that journey, and when we thought of bringing Brainiac 5 there was a big sigh of relief," Souders says, "because everything suddenly gelled." Adds Peterson: "He kind of perfectly embodies where we've been and where Clark's going, just in one character right there."
7. True Red and Blue: When Clark ends up in the future, he comes face-to-face with his future self; the Man of Steel that Smallville fans have definitely been waiting to see. "There's a very good possibility that he might reappear at some point," Peterson says.
6. 100th Revisited: A turning point for Clark comes when he revisits his father's funeral. The scene happens to be a favorite for the producers. "Kelly and I wrote that and we were up there for the 100th," Peterson says. "It was a really big pivotal moment for the show and the cast and the crew, not just on-screen but behind the scenes, too, so I think that for me stands out."
Check out photos of Smallville's 200th episode
5. Confidence Boost: Clark's glimpse into the future definitely lessons his strains in the present. "I would say that it galvanizes his confidence, which is something that has been a little wavering at the top of this season after everything Jor-El said to him," Peterson says. "Especially when it comes to his relationship with Lois [Erica Durance], and we see a lot of movement in that area." Souders adds: "He comes out the leader that we know Superman to be."
4. Bright Light: Past seasons, and even the beginning of the final one, have seen Clark continually struggle. However, after the 200th episode, the season will take a new turn. "We really wanted this to be a positive season and a season of growth and forward movement," Peterson says. "If it happened that late it the season it felt like you're just getting at that at the very last second before his big move into Superman, and so we really wanted it to launch the season, not just cap it off."
3. The Super Suit: Though the red and blue Superman suit is locked up in the Fortress of Solitude, Clark is on the path to earning the cape. "He still has quite a bit to go through," Souders says. "And we'll see that the world around him also puts up some major stumbling blocks for him, so as much as he's progressing, things around his life and the environment around him is going to shift after this episode to a place where he's got some major battles still to overcome here. So he's earning his stripes, though, all along."
Smallville's Tess takes on a motherly role towards Lex Luthor
2. Oliver's Gone Public: Though Ollie (Justin Hartley) has stepped into the limelight, it won't be an easy journey, especially since Clark is still in the shadows. "It's almost worse to watch your friend take the hit, because you're still hidden, than to take it yourself for Clark, because he's such a hero," Peterson says. Adds Souders: "It will also have an impact on the rest of the heroes, which we will see as that comes forward."
1. The End is Nigh: The producers reveal that the rest of the series is already mapped out as of last week. "Every episode," Souders says. "That was pretty daunting. We were all sitting in the writers' room, and we looked up at the board and we had it all mapped out. Like everything's now mapped out and we thought wow, that's it."
Smallville's 200th episode airs Friday at 8/7c on the CW.
